(Theory of Love)

Do you

want to sleep with me?

Who are you?

Don't do this.

Pat, stop!

If you get beaten up again,

call me.

I'll help apply the medicine.

Do you want a piece of me?

Stop.

Boss.

Maybe...

we should try going out with each other?

Let's be a couple.

It doesn't have to be for long.

Just until we overcome our issues.

Do you think that's a good idea, Pie?

I don't know.

But I don't think things can get any worse.

So, Boss?

Ouch. It hurt.

Aren't we already in enough trouble?

You're looking for more.

Let's go.

Where?

Just follow me.

Come on.

Where are we going?

Just follow me.

What room is this?

Come on.

What?

More stairs?

Even more stairs?

We're almost there.

- Hurry. - Where are we going?

Hey.

My bunker.

What is it?

When my dad punishes me,

I come here to hide.

Do you know

that you're the only other person besides my mom

who knows about this place?

When my dad beat me,

I would hide here until it got dark.

Mom would come get me.

You probably miss your mom a lot.

Yes.

So much.

Ever since she passed away,

it feels like no one understands me.

Even though I've just met you

and probably don't know everything about you,

I think

I understand you, Boss.

Hey.

I can even see the moon.

The sky's beautiful.

Right?

Half the space here is yours, Pie.

If you ever feel bad,

you can come over and look at the stars.

Thank you, Boss.

That's also beautiful.

- Here you go. - You made this?

Yes.

Looks good?

Here you go.

Thank you.

Enjoy the food.

I will. May I start?

Of course.

Wow, it's good.

No need to add any seasoning.

This is my mom's recipe.

It's her only recipe I remember.

When I miss her, I make this porridge.

It helps a lot.

What are you looking at?

You're pretty romantic.

Sensitive.

Emotional.

Only with special people.

Do you know

that the Theory of Happiness

says that when you're stressed,

eating something that fills you up

can help reduce the stress

and make you feel better?

So you'll be the only one crying, not your stomach.

Hey, are you teasing me?

They say

that food is life's most basic need.

Eating good food

means you're giving your body something good.

So you can take care of yourself

and love yourself more.

You're a real theorist.

How-to books are my favorite.

They also say

that eating good food

releases a chemical messenger called serotonin

that makes you less stressed and happier.

Why are you laughing?

You know so many theories.

A real theorist like you

shouldn't...

Shouldn't have turned out this way?

Are you laughing at me?

Okay, I believe your theories.

Then finish your bowl.

May I finish the pot?

Of course, it's all yours.

It's so good.

You're so loud in the evening,

don't you ever think about those who are trying to sleep?

I'm sorry, Dad.

Who is this?

My friend just got here.

She hasn't had dinner. So I made her some porridge.

This is my friend Pie.

Hello, sir.

I'm sorry for disturbing you.

Women these days

show up at men's places at night.

I don't understand them.

Pie

just came back from abroad.

She didn't know where to stay,

so I invited her to stay with us for a few days.

A hotel room shouldn't be that expensive.

This is a house, not a motel.

I'm sorry.

- I didn't mean to... - Dad.

Actually,

Pie is my girlfriend.

I don't want her to stay somewhere else.

I get worried.

Our place is safer.

Girlfriend?

You never told me you have a girlfriend.

I never told you

because we just decided to make it official.

So I asked her to come back to Thailand.

And...

If you're okay with it,

I'd like your permission for her to stay here for a while.

Only for a while.

Just a few days.

We have many rooms.

If you're his girlfriend, you can stay over.

By the way,

I heard

that Euro has a girlfriend.

Yes.

I just found out too.

I told you

that Euro and I are just friends.

Good.

So you two don't do anything to cause damage.

You were doing things that were unnatural.

You know what I like and dislike.

Don't make me repeat myself.

Okay.

I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare a room for you.

You can stay here.

But don't sleep together.

I don't like that.

- Okay. - Okay.

Pie.

I'm sorry for lying to him.

It's okay. I was the one who suggested it.

But you told me that your friends stay over often.

When your dad first met me,

why did he look so upset?

I told you that to make you feel at ease.

I don't dare bring anyone here.

I'm scared of my dad.

I also don't have any friends.

So why did you bring me here?

We just met a few days ago.

Maybe it's fate

or destiny

that makes me like you.

Okay then.

My boyfriend.

You're giving me goosebumps.

Finish up.

You should cancel your tutoring lessons for now.

Think of it as a break.

After I'm done teaching, I'll go get your things.

I'll get a locksmith to change the lock as well.

So your ex can't enter the house.

Hi.

Are you a new employee here?

Where is Boss?

He's out running some errands.

Are you a student or a parent?

Neither.

I'm a friend.

(Euro)

I see.

Euro?

Do you know me?

I'm his girlfriend.

So I know everything about him.

Girlfriend?

That's right, I'm his girlfriend.

I also know everything about him.

But I didn't know about his girlfriend.

So you should know by now

that Boss has a girlfriend.

That's me.

Okay.

Okay.

How much did he pay you?

For what?

To pretend to be his girlfriend.

Have you been watching too many TV shows?

That's why you're good at imagining things.

I'm almost there.

Is everything okay there, Pie?

I think you should leave.

I'm not sure when he'll be back.

Waiting won't help.

I'll let him know

that you were here.

- Sure. - Okay.

But I'm not leaving.

I told you to leave.

I won't.

- Hey. - Go.

- Get out. - Are you crazy?

- Get out. - Pie.

Euro.

Boss, who is this crazy lady?

Why is she saying that she's your girlfriend?

Well...

Are you nuts?

You're asking a random girl to pretend to be your girlfriend.

You're dating a girl too.

Why can't I?

You don't understand.

I have my reasons.

What reasons?

Fine.

I don't want to know.

You can do whatever you want.

It has nothing to do with me.

What if I ask you?

Ask me what?

I'm asking for some time.

Now your dad knows you have a girlfriend.

And so do I.

Your dad won't care about us anymore.

This

is the time

for us to secretly do

the things we want to do.

Do what?

I don't have anything in mind.

Don't act all innocent.

The things you want to do with me.

But you won't, because you're scared of your dad.

I don't have anything in mind.

What I'm about to say

might sound a little selfish.

But that woman

might make it

easier for us.

So we can be happy

and live the life we want.

No.

I don't want to use her.

Pie isn't stupid.

Also, I told Dad about her

because I wanted to help her.

I wasn't trying to use her.

Is your life right now

that good?

This is your life, Boss.

So live it.

Don't be so afraid of your dad that you don't live it.

Our relationship

and my relationship with Pie

are two different things.

Why care about someone you met a few days ago?

She might be a crook

who's manipulating you.

You don't understand, Euro.

Even though we only met a few days ago,

you don't know her like I do.

If you knew the things she had to go through,

you'd feel sorry for her like I do.

What if I ask you?

Even though we seem terrible

for using women,

I'm only asking you for some time.

Give me a few months.

Why a few months?

I'll tell you later.

Answer me.

Is that okay with you?

Hello, Pie.

Where are you?

What? You went home?

Where did she go?

I went to buy some things.

So I got some supplements for you.

They're good for your health.

Why did you buy so much? It's a waste of money.

I don't have time for that.

You bought so much, I don't know where to start.

How about this?

I'll sort them out for you.

Take them every morning. You'll be better in a few weeks.

You like to complicate things, huh?

But thank you.

I'll try them.

Maybe I'll get healthier so that I can play with my grandchild.

Pie.

Pie.

Why are you shouting? It's just us.

I'm sorry.

I went shopping,

so I bought your dad some supplements.

It's strange.

I've never seen my dad speak nicely to anyone but you.

Why did you do that, Pie?

I'm just worried about him.

I think of him like a family member.

You really think that?

Is there anything real between us?

What are you talking about? I don't understand.

I don't know

if I've jumped out of the frying pan into the fire.

Tell me, Boss.

Pie.

What's wrong?

Are you mad at me?

I'm confused.

Aoy and Chod, you must be wondering what I'm doing.

It's not complicated at all.

I just think that I'm really stupid.

Stupid for letting my ex hit me.

Stupid for not being able to tell when a new guy seems nice

and makes me feel better

when he's just using me.

Since they want me to be stupid,

then so be it.

Pie.

I'm going to my friend's child's wedding.

Let the housekeeper know what you want to eat tonight.

Don't be shy.

Okay.

And...

Is everything okay?

Did...

Did you guys have a fight?

The series I'm watching is pretty sad.

Are you sure?

I get so emotional when I watch.

Okay then.

Let me know if Boss upsets you.

He's immature.

Okay.

- Okay. - See you.

(Pretending to Be Stupid)

We have received so many questions

about love.

This is our first official podcast about love.

Let's talk about Noona's breakup. It's a long story.

Okay, I'm ready.

She met a guy.

He was a friend from middle school.

She had a crush on him, but he didn't know.

She broke up with her girlfriend, who's a tomboy.

She met him on Facebook, and they started talking.

She told him about her feelings when they were in school.

He wasn't shocked when he was told.

He also told her about his feelings.

Since they both had feelings then,

it wasn't shocking that their relationship developed quickly.

But he has a family.

He has two kids whom he loves very much.

(Euro)

- Hello. - Boss.

I'm at your place.

Come out and see me.

Your dad's not home, right?

Why are you here? Leave now.

I need time to think.

I'm impatient. I want to see you.

Boss, I don't have much time.

Just tell me what your issue is, Euro.

You keep mentioning time.

Please, come out and see me.

Fine, but I don't have long.

We'll be in trouble if Dad sees us.

Pie.

I brought you some warm milk.

Have some. You didn't have dinner.

You'll be hungry.

I left it out here.

What is it?

What are you doing?

What about you? What's up with you?

How much longer are you going to lie to yourself

that you don't feel anything

and that there's nothing between us?

There's nothing between us.

Boss.

Boss.

Boss.

Say that again.

Say there's nothing between us

and you don't have feelings for me.

Boss.

Just say what you want to say, Euro.

I'm going back in.

I don't know how long this period will last.

But I'm asking you

to spend it well.

So we won't regret

not having tried.

Thank you

for understanding.

Okay.

Thank you

for being here with me.

And...

Is there anything else you haven't told me?

No.

If I do,

I promise I will tell you.

Here.

Pie.

Give me a chance.

Please. I won't do it again. I promise.

Are you just going to throw all our dreams away?

How many times have you said that?

I've always endured it.

But I can't take it anymore.

My body hurts.

My heart hurts.

Please let me go.

I'm begging you.

Then please give me a chance to see you.

Pie.

Are you home?

Let me in.

At least let me give you one last hug.

One last hug?

Yes, Pie.

One last time.

For real.

I don't live there anymore, Pat.

Don't come and see me.

I don't want to see you again.

I will never meet up with you again.

I have to go, Pat.

What is it?

Where is Boss?

He didn't answer my call.

He's not in his room.

I...

So?

I'm sorry.

Boss was in my room in the evening.

He fell asleep.

I thought I'd wake him up later, so he could sleep in his room.

Do you want to come in?

It's okay. It's late.

I'm tired.

Wake him up and tell him to sleep in his room.

I will.

I understand.

Couples want to spend time together.

But I'm just afraid

that the housekeepers will gossip.

Wait until the time is right.

I won't tell you how to live your life.

Okay.

(Pie)

(Pie)

Boss, where are you?

Your dad came to my room to look for you.

I lied and said you were asleep.

Can you hear me, Boss?

Why is the music so loud?

Are you out partying?

Boss.

Boss.

Do you want to go home?

Someone's calling you.

No, I don't want to.

Fine.

Then don't go home.

Hey.

Why are you so aggressive?

Where is Boss?

Where were you? Were you out partying?

I had to clear the air with Boss.

So we went out.

Clear the air?

At this hour?

If his dad finds out, we'll all be in trouble.

Honestly.

You're so angry,

because you actually care about him

or you're scared that his dad will find out

that you're lying to him?

You'll be told to leave and must go back to your a*usive ex.

How rude.

Are all men terrible?

Is he in the car?

Boss.

Boss.

Get out, Boss.

Get ahold of yourself.

- Are we home? - Yes.

Let's go.

- Boss. - Leave him alone.

One more step.

Okay.

Are you okay with the invitation card?

Do you want to fix anything?

Boss.

Pie.

Boss.

Are you up?

How are you? Do you have a headache?

Why am I here?

You were so drunk last night.

Do you remember?

You carried me here?

Yes.

I was going to take you home.

But the lights were on. Your dad would see us.

Alone?

Yes, my arms are stronger now.

Boss.

I want to make an agreement with you.

An agreement with me?

Everyone says I'm a theorist.

So I have a theory

that I want to try with you.

I think it'll work for both of us.

Have you ever heard of

the 21 Days Theory to change into the new you?

Where you do the same things for 21 days

and those things become habit?

Yes.

Some have applied it to love.

And it worked.

And...

I want us to give this theory a try

and be a real couple for 21 days.

Not just to lie to your dad.

We must do everything

that real couples do.

Why is this a good idea, Pie?

It is.

You

will learn about yourself

and figure out who you are.

Can you fall for a girl?

Can you do what your dad wants?

As for me,

I just want someone

who can make me forget about Pat.

But love is no laughing matter.

Both of us might end up hurt.

Do you have a better idea?

Have you ever thought about

what would happen if your dad found out?

If he found out that both of us tricked him,

what would happen?

Boss.

Do you know

Pat called me yesterday?

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid I'll give in

and forgive him.

So I'm begging you.

Pie.

You told me

that maybe

we met

because of fate

or destiny.

Actually,

we might be soul mates.

Aren't you afraid

that I'll hurt you?

If you have the awareness,

then don't hurt me.

Do you know

that ever since I was born,

I've never met anyone who has taken better care of me than you.

What will happen to our relationship

after 21 days?

When that time comes,

we'll figure out

how things will go.

If it doesn't work,

I promise I won't beg again.

If it does work,

we can be a real couple.

The two of us

will be the happiest evil people, right?

Okay then.

I'll help you forget your ex.

Thank you, Boss.

I'm so happy you agreed.

But I won't follow the 21 Days Theory.

What do you mean?

I don't want to be the bad guy who knows that I can hurt you

but still ends up hurting you.

Even if I don't do as you ask,

I promise

that I'll always be there for you

and make you overcome this.

Boss.

Forgetting an ex doesn't mean getting a new boyfriend.

Even if you are single,

you have to choose not to go back and get hurt.

(Pie)

Pie.

Boss, pick up.

Why are you here?

This home doesn't welcome anyone who tries to turn my son g*y.

I'm getting married.

I'm here to invite you and Boss.

Euro asked me for three months.

That's why.

He's such a jerk.

I told you to leave.

Come on.

Hurry.

Come on. Leave Boss alone.

Let her pull you.

I'm trying.

We're fighting over a man.

The first battle.

That's right.

What was that?

What was that?

She's not here to play.

What's the matter?
