ALL LOCATIONS, CHARACTERS,
ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS

PORTRAYED IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

-Dae-o.
-Dae-o!

-What...
-My gosh!

-Dae-o, are you all right?
-Hold on a second.

Hold on a second.

HANKUK UNIVERSITY

Thank God it was still recorded.
Can you take this?

This isn't what's important right now.

Your dream was especially bright
in my eyes.

Your passion would
only light up in my presence.

Were you trying to k*ll yourself?

It's so itchy.

-Your display of affection...
-Ae-jeong!

-was reckless yet touching.
-Hey.

I have quite a large umbrella.
Would you like to share it with me?

The smirk in your eyes.

Your whimsical nature.

Your naivety.

And how adorable you were.

I now

remember it all.

All the reasons why I loved you.

Damn it.

You!

What the heck? Did you get hurt?

Did you? Gosh, you're bleeding.

Let's get you on your feet.

If you were going to worry like that,

why did you push me?

How can I not be concerned
when you're bleeding?

Why must you always find meaning
in every single gesture I make?

This is the village foreman speaking.

I am looking for someone.

It's someone from Seoul.

Ms. Noh Ae-jeong.

If Ms. Noh Ae-jeong is hearing this,
could you please

-stop by my house--
-I'm...

There she is.

-Ae-jeong?
-Ms. Noh?

What the hell?
What are you three doing here?

Ae-jeong, are you all right?

Jin, what on earth are you doing here?

-I was worried about you.
-Just a second.

Ae-jeong, let's hurry back home.

Yeon-woo, how did you get here?

I...

will escort Ms. Noh home.

Mr. Koo, I didn't expect
you to be here either.

Escort her, my a*s.

Seriously, how did you get here?

Anyway, how will you go back to Seoul?

-What?
-Sorry?

DOCK CLOSED

What did I tell you?

There are no ships at this hour.

Aren't there any other boats?

Is this the only dock?

You'll have to stay the night here

and get on the first boat tomorrow.

-Spend the night here?
-Yes.

All five of us?

That's right.

Are you kidding me?

Is there perhaps an inn here?

I'm quite sensitive,
so somewhere clean would be nice.

I don't doubt that.

Ms. Noh, let me find you a hotel.

Jeez.

Why would there be a hotel
on this tiny island?

My house is probably the only house
that's big enough.

I have a few rooms to spare.

-Sir.
-Yes?

If it's all right with you,
could you spare us a few rooms?

-Yes, of course.
-Wait.

Not for them though.

Just so you know,
you aren't allowed to film here just yet.

What?

What are you talking about?

That's not what you said this morning.

I know, but then something hit me.

I'm not the only resident here.

I don't speak for everyone.

Of course, I don't.

Right, of course.

What can we do to move things along then?

Here, take your pick!

We don't have much time.

We have a lot to do
before the others get here.

Come on, all.

Don't you want to film here?

What's with the attitude?

Okay, fine.
You can kiss your movie goodbye.

-Sir, hold on.
-So long.

Of course, we'll put them on. Watch.

Come on, take your pick.

Hurry up and choose, guys.

See?

Hey, the purple one's mine.

That's more like it.

It's too warm out for this.

No way! Your place is so nice!

It's 100 times bigger than where I live.
My goodness.

You're exaggerating.

Why didn't you tell me
that you were filthy rich?

What exactly does your dad do anyway?

What? Well...

Where's your room?

It's on the second floor.

-The second floor?
-Yes.

No way. I'll wait for you there then.

Sorry it took me so long...

Where did she go?

Ha-nee?

Ha-nee?

Ha-nee?

Dong-chan?

Where did he go?

Dong-chan?

Why didn't you answer me?

-I've been looking for you everywhere.
-Sorry.

Well,

this house is so big that we ended up
playing hide-and-seek.

That'd be impossible at my place.

-So this room--
-Here.

This is for you.

Jeez. What's all this money?

I figured you would need some
for the DNA test.

Besides, it's not a gift but a loan.

I know you wouldn't take it for free.

Just take it.

I want to know who your dad is
as much as you do.

Dong-chan...

LIST OF POSSIBLE DADS
OH YEON-WOO

It's gotten easier now
thanks to Dong-chan.

DAD: RYU JIN, MOM: NOH AE-JEONG

All I need now is a strand of his hair.

Who's this?

-Hello?
-Ha-nee.

Wait. Mom, is that you?

Ms. Choi, something came up
so I have to stay the night.

There's no need to worry though.

It's not like him to stay the night.

-Grandma.
-Yes? What is it?

Mom says she can't come home tonight.

What? Why?

She must be busy.

Her phone died
so she can't take our calls.

She told us not to worry.

My gosh.

Who knew he'd actually make a move?

Come out if you're ready.

Like I said, you look fine.

Gosh, it's as if you're
in matching outfits.

How perfect.

The outfits couldn't look better.

Now that everybody is ready to work...

Have a seat for a moment.
I'll bring out some beverages.

As if we have time to lounge around.

We should get to work, sir.

I have to say, Ms. Noh,
you are one decent person.

You're awfully enthusiastic today.

It's as if you desperately
want to get away from us.

There's not really much
that needs to be done.

But to serve a big group of people...

Yes, of course.

First, we need someone
to help prepare for dinner.

Now, who would be suited for that?

-Preparations for dinner?
-That's right.

Dinner preparations...

Mr. Koo, you should lend them
your services.

Me?

He's quite the family man, you see.

Also...

He seems to have a way with knives too.

-Knives?
-Yes, knives.

Right, then Mr. Koo
will help prepare for dinner.

-That's right.
-Next--

Lighting the furnace?
That's an important job.

That'll--

That'll be done by Mr. Oh.

Make sure it doesn't
create too much smoke.

Got it.

-Splitting the firewood?
-That's right.

Chopping wood isn't an easy task.

It'll be done by Mr. Cheon.

While you're at it,
chop him a month's worth.

But I injured my hand.

It won't be too much work.

So Mr. Cheon will chop the firewood.

Just a second.
I forgot something important.

My second cousin twice removed
lives in the village too

and she runs a grocery store.

I'd appreciate it
if Mr. Ryu could make that trip.

She's a huge fan, you see.

That's great!

You can cross grocery shopping
off your list too.

I'll need a manager.

-What?
-As a famous movie star

who's about to set foot
on the world stage,

I can't be seen at a grocery store alone.

Never.

Damn it.

Why did she give me
the most difficult task?

I'm too darn smart for this.

Anyway, I've got this. I...

You won't get anywhere
chopping wood like that.

What?

We won't be able to light the fire
at this rate.

Unbelievable.

You must be comfortable around me now

to get all cute in front of me.

Is that what you think this is?

Well, you're wrong.

Gosh.

How awkward.

I mean,

I get it that you want to
keep me in check, but--

Not really.

Even if you hang around her,
it won't change how she feels about you.

Jeez.

You're quite a confident man, aren't you?

Well, at least I'm sure of one thing.

You will never make Ae-jeong happy.

What?

You can't guarantee

you won't hurt her again.

You don't even know what you did to her,

so how can you promise her
that you won't do it again?

That's why I won't let you near her.

So if you're going to play games
with her heart,

I suggest you back off.

I'll take these to your house.

Right.

Did something happen between you two?

It's nothing.

By the way, where's the grocery store?

I need to go buy something.

What? Why would you do that?

I need to see Ms. Noh. It's urgent.

Mr. Cheon,

are you trying to cut corners?

You didn't seem like the type
until this morning.

What about the firewood?

It won't take long.

Goodness.

Then I should finish up before I go.

I'll split all of them
into a million pieces.

Damn it!

Gosh.

Now's not the time for me
to be chopping firewood.

A manager, my a*s.

That slimy jerk.

Just you wait.

I'll take care of things here,

so keep a close eye on Dong-chan.

Sure.

That woman looked just like Tan Zi Yi.

If you k*ll me, someone else will come.

Excuse me.

Yes?

It might not seem so,
but this requires a lot of strength.

First, grab the head

and remove the scales with the knife
from tail to head.

Then chop off the head!

It's easy, right?

It might be tricky at first,
but you'll get the hang of it soon.

Have you seen anyone suspicious
around the village?

I'm not sure.

Or anyone...

looking for a specific person?

I don't think I came across
anyone like that.

By the way, where's the grocery store?

At the nine o'clock direction
past the chili field.

The chili field?

Wait.

How about one more?

One more what?

There are so many left.

When I heard you were
at my cousin's house,

my heart started to pound like crazy.

Thank you.

I've been a fan since you played
Cheon-dung in Laugh, Cheon-dung.

Gosh, you watched that?

How did you become such a good actor?

Every tear he shed on-screen
always flooded my heart.

I know, right?

Jin worked very hard
even when he was at university.

He'd take a single line

and practice it thousands of times
and even all night.

All he did was practice.

There's a reason why his tears

-are so believable.
-Exactly.

-Just a second.
-What is it?

I thought I'd sign
a special autograph for you.

-Really?
-Yes.

-I'd be thrilled.
-Let's see.

RYU JIN

"From you one and only..."

RYU JIN
FROM YOUR ONE AND ONLY CHEON-DUNG

You know what?
In return, I'll have these delivered.

I can't have you carry these yourself.

-Take a photo for us.
-Sure.

You grew up to be such a fine young man.

-Tall and handsome.
-Thank you.

-Such a fine man.
-Here we go.

-Sure.
-One, two, three.

Where's Jin?

Jin? He's home.

-Are you sure?
-Yes, of course.

Oh, right. Of course.

He must not be answering
because he's in the shower.

Ms. Song, is it urgent?

Well, then...

Okay, let me see
if he can pick up the phone.

I'm heading over to the bathroom.
Please hold.

Jin, are you done showering?

Ms. Song's on the phone.

Why?

Did I see something I shouldn't have?

Why are you laughing?

The look you're sporting
is well ahead of its time.

-Look who's talking.
-Me?

I guess you're right.

Still, thanks to what I'm wearing,

I can walk alongside you

without people getting the wrong idea.

-"The wrong idea"?
-I bet you didn't know

that I used to get the stink eye

for always hanging out with you.

I couldn't have been more naive.

How stupid was it of me

to be the right-hand man
of the university's heartthrob?

People did hate me less,

once Dae-o joined us and we became a trio.

It was a huge relief.

Actually, that's what I regret the most.

We shouldn't

have become a trio.

I shouldn't have become friends
with Dae-o.

And I shouldn't have let him
have feelings for you.

Jin,

you have no idea how grateful I am to you.

Even though you're Ryu Jin,
an up-and-coming global star,

you didn't forget about me

and treated me as you always have.

However,

let's just stop there.

Ae-jeong...

I'm not the 23-year-old Ae-jeong
you used to know.

Right now,

I'm a 37-year-old mother who is thinking
of what to make her daughter

for breakfast the next morning.

Well, Ae-jeong. You see...

Jin.

I didn't hear a word you said.

So what I was trying to say is...

that I truly...

Move! Get out of the way!

I said, move!

Watch out!

What the hell, Dae-o?

Are you all right?

The breaks were jammed.

Why are you here?

I had business to take care of.

-Then go about your way.
-Actually,

my business is with him.

I had no idea you were this disrespectful.

She's the producer of our movie,
not your manager.

Why didn't you bring your manager

when you can't even get groceries
on your own?

Mr. Cheon!

That's enough.

We're not here as friends
but as business associates.

Okay.

-Hey, Dae-o. Don't you think I--
-Jin, you too.

What?

We may have been a trio
back in university,

but not anymore.

Let's not let personal matters
get in the way of our business.

I really want to do a great job
with this film.

So please help me out, okay?

Goodness.

Eat up, everyone.

WELCOME SUPERSTAR RYU JIN

Please, dig in. We're celebrating today.

Goodness.

Gosh, Ms. Noh.

-Great.
-Look.

He's real. He's not fake.

The movie actor.

-He's the real deal.
-Goodness.

-He's so handsome.
-He's really here.

Yes, by the way, sir, what's going on?

It's a village meeting.

-This is a village meeting?
-Of course.

It looks like a party.

A village meeting, my foot.

We've been duped.

A superstar is visiting our island,

so we couldn't just stay indoors
and not greet him.

-It's a party!
-Let's celebrate!

Ms. Noh.

Would it be okay if

Ryu Jin...

could sing a song for us later?

-Sir.
-Yes?

He can't. I'm sorry.

Why not?

Didn't you say you wanted to film
in our village?

It's all part of the village meeting.

-Still, it's not...
-Let me.

Come on, we already talked about this
in the morning.

-That was--
-I'll do it, sir.

But if I sing, people who hear me sing

will have to watch the film twice
once it's released, okay?

Sure thing!

When the film is released,

I'll take them all to the movies
and watch it twice.

While you're at it, could you

pose for some photos
and sign autographs, too?

Sir, that's--

Of course I will.

-Then, as you promised,
-Yes.

please give us permission to film
in front of all the villagers.

Sure. Trust me. Don't you know who I am?

I'm the foreman of this village.

-All right. Everyone, drink up.
-Have a drink.

-Eat up.
-Let's drink.

-Goodness.
-I can't believe it!

-Gosh.
-You're all here.

-I can't believe you're here.
-Why are you so handsome?

You're embarrassing me.

-Goodness.
-You're so good-looking.

-Come quickly.
-I got his autograph.

-Goodness.
-They're so happy.

What's your name?

It's Jung Bun-sim.

That's a nice name.

He's so sweet. He wrote, "I love you."

He wrote, "I love you very much."

-Me, too.
-Me, too.

-We love you very much.
-We love you very much.

I love you very much too.

Everyone.

-Yes.
-Yes.

Seeing how they've filled our village
with joy and laughter,

do you agree that we should let them
film the movie in our village?

-We should.
-Of course.

-Of course, we should.
-Yes.

-Thank you.
-Of course.

Thank you.

-It's a party.
-Let's celebrate.

This really sucks.

I've been doing
all the work since morning.

I even split firewood.

But look who's taking all the credit.

You shouldn't have brought Ms. Noh
in the first place.

Mr. Koo.

Let me set things straight for you.

I was the first one
to arrive on this island.

Strictly speaking,
Ms. Noh followed me here.

That's the fact.

In any case,

until we have the signed permission,

you should fully cooperate.

Well,

Mr. Investor.

Shouldn't you do something
to solve this situation?

I saw a mosquito.

You don't know how to spend your money.

It's frustrating.

By the way, where did Ae-jeong go
when everyone's so busy?

Jeez.

Here's the hot chocolate you ordered.

-It's hot.
-Is it really hot chocolate?

It is.

Where did you get it?

It was in the kitchen, so I made it.

A heavenly cup of comfort.

Ha-nee taught me.

I can't believe she taught you that.

Seeing how you like it so much,

I guess she taught me this
so I could score points.

By the way, why did you come here?

What?

I couldn't get hold of you,
so I went to your office.

The lady there said you were here.

I came because I was worried about you.

I'm so grateful to you
about so many things.

That's why I feel really bad.

You always do so much for me.

But I have nothing to offer.

I'm sorry.

Ae-jeong, I just...

I have to get back.

I think I was away for too long.

Thanks for the hot chocolate.

CONGRATULATIONS

-She's worked all day...
-I'll sing a song for you.

-without anything to eat.
-A round of applause, everyone!

All right, here I go.

Sit down.

You've been working nonstop.

Here.

Take them.

Eat something.

You haven't eaten anything today.

Don't worry about securing locations.

I'll make it work no matter what.

You finally sound like a director.

I'll take it you're only going to
focus on work from now on.

Just work and nothing else.

It must be nice

to be able to do that.

How can you turn your feelings on and off

like a light switch?

I can't do that.

I know...

that you like me, too.

I'm going to go.

Tell me.

Why did you leave me?

Put this down.

-Come here.
-Well...

Why do you hate me so much?

I love you

I like you

-With your touch
-Go, Ryu Jin!

Tell me. Let's talk it out.

Then, we can...

No. I don't want to say anything.

No. I need to hear it.

Samba, samba, samba

-My lovely sweetheart
-All right.

Fourteen years ago.

The reason you left me.

-What?
-What is he saying?

-What did he say?
-I don't know.

-What's going on?
-What is it?

I guess they were once lovers.

-Are they fighting?
-I guess so.

Do you really have to do this?

Do you really need to see it through?

I want to start over.

How?

How are we going to start over?

We can't go back 14 years.

It's true my heart fluttered for a while.

I may have been a little excited.

But that is nowhere enough
to fix everything

that happened in the past 14 years.

Still...

I could either die

or leave you.

Those were the only choices
I had fourteen years ago.

In the end,
I left you because I couldn't die.

And since then,

you've been dead to me.

Ae-jeong.

So, please

remain dead

in my heart

forever.

Tell me.

Why did you leave me?

Why do you hate me so much?

If that solved anything,

I would have told you.

If it was that easy,

I wouldn't have left you.

Also,

I wouldn't have hated you.

Wait.

Let's talk for a minute.

I wasn't ever going to
talk to you about this again,

but I have nobody else to talk to.

I thought I was the only one
having a hard time.

I thought I was the only one
who was in pain.

But I guess she was, too.

She was

in terrible pain, too.

There seems to be something
I don't know about.

I really don't know what that is.

Jin.

Please buy me a drink.

Why

are you telling me that?

Why are you telling me

what you don't know?

Mr. Oh.

Is Ms. Noh all right?

Yes.

By the way,

why are you being so kind to Ae-jeong?

She looks like someone
who I couldn't protect.

Have you and Ms. Noh known each other
for a long time?

Yes.

I'm jealous.

I'm jealous of Mr. Cheon, Ryu Jin,

and you.

That's not always a good thing though.

Ms. Noh.

Don't worry about us.

The secret to our village's longevity

is holding one's tongue.

I see.

Anyway, what happened fourteen years ago?

It sounded like there was something

between you two in the past.

I'll turn the light off.

Okay. Sure.

By the way,

you can fight like that
only because you still have feelings.

Otherwise, you can't.

Well...

-Ms. Noh.
-Hi, Mr. Koo.

Where is everyone?

You're so good at pulling green onions.

-You're so wonderful.
-I'm hungry.

-You're up already.
-Yes.

Mr. Cheon got on the first boat and left
early in the morning.

Early in the morning?

Everyone got up so early.

You should go back to Seoul too.

I guess I'll see you again
when the filming begins.

Thank you for everything, sir.

Don't mention it.

Have breakfast before you go.

It won't take long.

Wait just a minute, okay?

Mr. Cheon?

Hi. You're here.

Mr. Cheon, did you sleep here?

Didn't you go to the island with Ms. Noh?

I came back first.

Did you work as soon as you got back?

We have a meeting later today,

and we don't have much time
until we start filming.

Still, you should take a day off.

What if you collapse
from working too hard?

Actually, I'd like that
so that I could stop thinking.

I'll go wash up.

Well...

JOO A-RIN

"Joo A-rin..."

DIRECTOR

He must be busy right now.
I'm sure he'll call you back.

You have to smile
when you go in later, okay?

How can I smile?

Stop thinking about Mr. Cheon.

How can I not think about him?

He was dead drunk, and I drove him home,
but he didn't even call.

Please watch what you say.

Tons of reporters will be out there.

Please smile, okay?

A-rin, you're an angel. Smile like this.

What do you want me to do?

I feel like sh*t right now.
What do you want me to do?

A-rin, stop practicing your angry face.

Okay?

See? You look the prettiest
when you smile.

-Hello.
-Welcome.

Enjoy your meal.

Have more.

-Enjoy your meal.
-Thank you.

-One more, please.
-Give me more meat.

-Okay. Enjoy.
-Thank you.

-Enjoy your meal.
-She's so pretty.

You're doing great.

Of course.

Hello.

-Enjoy your meal.
-Enjoy your meal.

A celebrity sure looks pretty.

Joo A-rin looks really kind.

Don't you know not to trust anything
that wears makeup?

Before I got here,

I had a big business in the film industry.

You know that, right?

When I was in business,

every top celebrity had to go through me.

Do-yeon, Ji-hyun, Kang-h*,
Jung-jae, Byung-hun.

What about A-rin?

Did you do any work with A-rin?

Why don't you say hello to her?

Shall I?

Shall I ask her to give me more kimchi?

What about Ryu Jin?

A-rin and Jin are filming
a movie together.

THE NATION'S SWEETHEART, THE ANGEL OF ASIA
AND THE CELEBRITY WRITER

WRITER CHEON EOK-MAN DEBUTS AS A DIRECTOR

"Cheon Eok-man."

Will you sign a contract with me,

Mr. Cheon Eok-man?

LOVE IS NONEXISTENT
CHEON EOK-MAN

I'm sorry, Kwae-nam.

Hey.

Do you know how scared I was?

Ms. Song wanted to track you down

so she came here
and searched the whole place.

Oh, right. I almost had a heart attack

when she saw the gifts
you bought for your daughter.

-What?
-But don't worry.

I improvised brilliantly.

I told her that you bought them
as a birthday gift for my son.

I should go to the office.

Why all of a sudden?

They weren't gifts for a three-year-old.

Hello, sir.

What happened?

I found this near the temple.

Track him down no matter what.

And tighten the security around Dong-chan.

Yes, sir.

By the way, I found this inside.

How did he have this?

What happened

between you and that woman

who looks like Ms. Noh?

Hey, how could you not have
a single snack that I like?

You have my mom's taste.

By the way, did your mom
tell you anything in particular?

About what?

For example, her biggest regret in life

or the person she misses the most.

Was there?

Why are you suddenly talking about her?

Wake up. You should be interested

in Ryu Jin, not my mom. Got it?

That is true,

but I thought maybe
she knew his home address.

She might since they're working together.

You're so naive.

Asking the school bully
for lunch money would be easier.

We might as well question someone
with a big mouth...

Wait a second.

There was Hye-jin.

Who?

-Hurry up.
-Okay.

Ha-nee.

Mr. Oh.

Did you just get home?

Hello.

You're here too, Dong-chan.

Yes.

By the way, where are you guys going?

Well...

We're going to Aunt Sook-hee's.

We need to feed our puppy.

That's right.

-Is that so?
-Goodbye, then.

Goodbye.

Ha-nee, wait a minute.

There you go.

You might trip and fall.

-Let me see the other foot.
-Okay.

Darn it.

No.

Goodness, Yeon-woo.

-Hello.
-Did you just get home?

I was busy yesterday.

That's fine. I understand.

You're an adult, after all.

You see...

I find you so trustworthy

and responsible.

You're just perfect in my eyes,
so I don't worry at all.

Not one bit.

Also,

I'm always grateful.

You're so good to Ha-nee.

And no matter what others say
about Ae-jeong,

you're always on her side.

Ma'am.

I should go upstairs and rest.

Right. You should. Go on, now.

Hello, Ms. Noh.

Thank you for your hard work.

No problem.

By the way, where's Mr. Cheon?

Hi.

Ms. Choi, please prepare the materials.

Sure.

Did you two fight on the island?

No, we didn't.

Please look at the bamboo forest.

Do you see the mark?

It'd be nice to use a cable cam

or a drone to follow the scene.

And the CGI Team?

We'll book a meeting as soon as possible.

Sure. Let's move on.

I want to express their fateful encounter
and breakup through music.

And...

Would you like some more coffee?

Yes, that'd be wonderful.

-Would you also like some--
-No, I'm fine.

Please look at Scene 46.

Ms. Noh, here. I've organized it.

Thanks.

By the way,

isn't Mr. Cheon acting a bit weird today?

He's only talked about work all day.

He's working very hard today.

It's as if he's trying to
take his mind off something.

It's almost as if he was rejected
by a woman or something like that.

Thank you.

-Thanks again.
-No problem.

I've settled everything
with the village foreman.

Just so you know, because you left early.

And about the CGI Team,

I'll do my best to organize everything
as soon as possible.

Sir.

Is it okay if I keep doing this?

I'm trying my best to hold back.

I want to grab onto you
and talk about everything.

But I'm afraid that you might leave again
if I did that.

If you leave,

I'll be upset.

Everything that I've said to you

has been from the bottom of my heart.

So give me one more chance.

I don't care about the pain I've felt,

I'll do whatever I can
to help you get over your broken heart.

Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
It feels like I'm suffocating.

What? Did they leave already?

Dong-chan, this is my mom's desk.

It's very clean.

Darn it.
We shouldn't have missed that bus.

Who is it?

I see. You're here to see your mom.

It's okay. Sit down.

No, it's fine.

By the way, who is he? Your boyfriend?

What? No way. We're friends.

I see.

Then why is he looking so gloomy?

Why is that?

What's wrong? Aren't we friends?

I should go home. Bye.

What?

What are you talking about?
This is an emergency situation.

We need to plan out what to do, don't we?

I should go. Goodbye.

Hey, Dong-chan.

Wait there.

What?

I should feed Ae-jeong's daughter
before sending her off.

-Eat up.
-Thank you.

Look at you thanking me halfheartedly.

You must be bothered by him.

Yes, and it's all thanks to you
for calling him my boyfriend.

Gosh, look at those eyes.
You sure take after your mom.

You have quite a temper, don't you?

He got scared and left

because you glared at him.

Who I'm friends with
is none of your business.

And don't act like you know my mom well.

Your mom?

Your mom also had quite a temper
back when we were students.

Did you guys go to the same school?

Didn't you know?

Has she never told you about me?

Not even once.

Oh, I see.

Does that mean you know her well?

What?

I guess I know a bit about her.

You said you two went to the same school.

Was she close to Ryu Jin?

How close were they?

Ryu Jin?

Well...

I think he was just her senior.

They weren't that close. Why? What is it?

Then do you know who she used to like
back then?

Have you seen him before?

What?

You have, haven't you? You know him.

I'm not sure.

No, I can see it in your eyes.
You obviously know him.

Gosh, my ice cubes have melted. Excuse me.

I need more ice cubes.
Could you give me some?

What was that? He's absolutely useless.

That won't do the trick.

I think alcohol is the best medicine
for you right now.

Do you think so?

I wonder what's frustrating you this time.

I'm just

trying.

I keep telling myself what you've told me.

You told me

that there is always a price to pay
when you love someone with all your heart.

I'll never forget those words.

I know how painful

the consequences can be.

That's why

I'm never going to make
the same mistake again.

Ever.

But then again,

you can't say
that Ha-nee is the price you've paid.

Of course not.

She definitely isn't.

Then?

Why are you hesitating?

But then again,

you can't say that
Ha-nee was the price you've paid.

So give me one more chance.

Yes. It's not like I want to do something.

I just...

I just want to talk.

Ms. Noh.

What brings you here at this hour?

Well...

I...

I have to speak with Mr. Cheon.

Is that so?

I'm sorry, but he's not home right now.

Can you drop by some other time?

Goodbye, Ae-jeong.

I'm sorry,

but I must speak with him tonight.

I actually came by today
to tell Mr. Cheon how I feel.

It was just a misunderstanding.

Leave. I'll stay out of your sight.

What on earth is your relationship
with Ms. Noh?

Who is she to you, and why is she
making me feel so pathetic?

Ryu Jin left Ssong Entertainment.

I guess this really is your Achilles heel.

If she's okay with it,
I'm even prepared to be the father.

Shouldn't we tell Dong-chan?

Why is his photo here?

Ryu Jin, the actor, is my dad.

Your father is still alive?
