WHEN THE STARS GOSSIP

He risked his life by boarding the Maru,

a domestic spacecraft which hadn't

completed a reentry test, to rescue…

Welcome back.

I'm fine.

Yeah, you are.

First of all, welcome back.

How did a commander and a tourist end up

stranded on the space station alone?

The storage module

in the observation area was

severely damaged by space debris,

which caused the hatches

on both sides to seal shut.

The tourist was trapped inside

and couldn't reach the main module.

Even if it was to save a colleague,

you risked your life boarding a spacecraft

that hadn't completed a reentry test.

That couldn't have been easy.

I didn't just go up there

to save the tourist,

but to save the woman I love

with all my heart.

I didn't even have time to be scared.

So you two are in a relationship?

Are you a couple?

There's no one in the world I love more.

We actually have

another well-known couple here.

CEO Choi Go-eun of MZ Electronics,

you're here for

your fiancé, Mr. Gong Ryong.

You must've been very worried about him.

You recently announced your engagement.

When is the wedding going to be?

I'd marry him right now if I could.

A question for the commander.

I heard the solar array was damaged

when the space debris hit.

How did you two manage to withstand

the cold of space until the very end?

Well…

If…

If we make it back alive…

Will you stop saying "if"?

Each of these portable oxygen tanks

lasts about 15 minutes.

It's too soon to be saying "if."

If…

I told you not to say that.

If we make it back alive…

I'm going to kiss you every 15 minutes.

If we make it back alive…

we'll have bowls of steaming noodles…

at those tables

outside convenience stores…

together.

And we'll blow

on the hot noodles as we eat.

I want to do that every day.

Okay, sounds nice.

I want to grow old with you…

until I'm frail and weak

and die by your side when I'm 100.

Okay.

I want…

to take you out on dates

on Earth.

I'll give my all to be with you…

to love you…

and…

to live fully.

Eve.

Here.

- Well--

- The protocol in situations like that

is to strip down

and hold each other close,

no matter who you're with.

That's how you keep each other warm.

In those moments,

you're not a man and a woman.

You're just colleagues

fighting for survival together.

All members of Expedition 3,

Commander Eve,

Kang Kang-su, Lee Seung-jun,

Mina Lee, Santi, and the tourist,

have returned to Earth safely.

They'll return to the space station

as soon as they recover

and the repairs are made.

All right, we'll head to Seoul now.

Commander, any words for your boyfriend

who risked his life for you?

- Please say a few words.

- Any plans for a press conference?

What happened to your arm?

You're so clumsy.

That hits the spot.

I thought you quit smoking.

You look scared.

Are you feeling anxious?

You're probably right

about what you're thinking.

Commander!

Don't get up. I told you

to stay as still as possible for a while.

Feel like throwing up?

I don't have anything left to throw up.

- Do you think you can take this off?

- Yeah.

- I can't breathe.

- I got it.

Remove your suit and lie down.

Balancing will be hard

with your vestibular system messed up.

This blue compression suit

might feel a bit tight,

but you have to keep it on.

Can you lift your bottom?

All right, here we go.

One, two, three.

There you go.

Good job.

Dong-a, go get some rest in your room.

We can take it from here.

It was just a one-day trip for me.

I'm totally fine.

By the way, where's Dr. Kang?

Where did he slip off to this time?

Can I lie down now?

The floor is spinning.

Take off all his clothes minus the suit.

- Okay?

- You got it.

What? No, wait.

It's fine.

My stomach hurts.

Listen, can I use the bathroom?

You might get dizzy and fall

if you try to move.

You should go help him.

No, I can go by myself.

After your miraculous return to Earth,

you want to crack your head open

and die in the bathroom?

No way.

Let's go.

No, I don't…

- It's no trouble.

- I don't need your help.

You really don't have to.

Let me help you.

No, I can handle this.

You can't do this alone.

Your body can't even tell whether you're

in gravity or zero gravity right now.

Why are you being so nice to me?

Is there a reason I shouldn't be?

Don't be so nice to me.

What?

From the moment

you open the door and go back out there,

stay the hell away from Eve.

You almost got her k*lled.

What were you doing

in the observation module that

kept you from getting

to the main module in time?

Like I said, you almost got Eve k*lled.

Your dramatic space trip is over now,

so stay away from her.

Don't get it confused.

You're with Choi Go-eun.

And Eve is with me.

I can pull down my own pants.

I'll be sitting down, not standing up.

I can handle it, all right?

Get out.

Where's my son-in-law?

Isn't this his room?

Is he being seen by a doctor?

Family visits are not allowed right now.

Please leave.

Are you okay, Ryong?

Geez, what did I tell you?

Come on.

Lay him down on the bed.

- And take off his clothes.

- Got it.

No, hold on a second! I'm going to puke!

I can't lie down.

I thought you were done.

Your stomach should be empty.

Chairman Choi!

Yes.

You did good.

You did great, Ryong.

I know.

I told you not to bend over!

You can marry Go-eun.

He's throwing up again.

He's going to get dehydrated.

For God's sake.

I'll go get him an IV.

Sir, please take this.

What? Me?

I can't ask them

to wash this for me, can I?

Come on, take it.

Don't just throw it away.

Make sure you wash it, okay?

This sock has been to space, you know.

Could you guys give me a hand?

This is k*lling me.

Sir, that's the portable freezer

we gave him!

I was worried

he might've left it at the space station,

but it's okay now. He did it.

Congratulations, sir.

Go-eun.

Min-jeong.

My baby. Thank goodness.

- Come on, lift your arm.

- No, I can't.

Not even a little?

Go-eun.

The morula is safe.

It passed through the atmosphere

without any issues.

- Really?

- Are you serious?

Thank God.

- Yi-man.

- Yeah?

- You know Dr. Na, right?

- Yeah.

Is she doing all right?

Oh, right. I'll go check on her.

I'll be right back.

You…

You did it!

Wait.

Hey, you… You stink of cigarettes.

Have you been smoking?

You're the best.

What happened to your arm?

You shouldn't be smoking when you're hurt.

The commander doesn't smoke?

You can't smoke up there.

I saw you two

right before you were rescued.

Did you kiss?

Did you kiss her?

Go-eun.

Don't waste your time

on an opportunist like me.

Your father

wouldn't let me work as an ob-gyn,

so I wanted to get back at him

and work my way up.

Luckily,

you fell for me.

And I played along,

knowing that I was being a jerk.

Being with you

made me feel reassured, like I was rich.

And I thought…

I'd come to love you in time.

But when you asked me to marry you,

I just couldn't say yes.

I felt like…

I'd be a real jerk if I did that.

You're lying.

Go-eun.

Sorry it took me so long to be honest.

I'm sorry.

Then be an opportunist till the end.

If you do this now…

what am I supposed to do?

Tell me you're pushing me away because

you have feelings for someone else.

I'd rather deal with that.

At least then, I could fight for you.

At least then…

I wouldn't feel so pathetic.

WELCOME BACK TO EARTH

What are you doing out of bed again?

You don't even need to take this test.

I won't stay for long.

You just won't listen.

You never do.

You should go get some rest, Dong-a.

Don't bother.

You think he'll listen to you

when he won't even listen to me?

The IOU will send

an investigation team to the station soon.

They will investigate the accident.

What was the tourist doing

in the observation module anyway?

He said he was trying to grab

the camera from there

when he got stuck.

You know how messy

the cables are over there.

Why would he care about some stupid camera

in a life-or-death situation?

Things were pretty chaotic.

I think he was a bit flustered.

I'll need a more detailed report

on what happened when you two were alone.

Was there any specific issue?

Well…

We only had 15-minute oxygen tanks.

What?

What about the one-hour tanks?

There weren't any.

What else?

Sorry?

Tell me more in detail.

Well, is that all?

Yeah.

When I talk

to the investigation committee,

I'll give them all the details I remember.

Just 15-minute tanks?

You had a close call.

We only had nine 15-minute tanks.

That feels good.

Did you sleep well?

Yeah.

I slept like a rock.

I feel so much better.

I see you're doing much better.

You want water? Let me get it for you.

Let me try.

Sure.

Impressive…

Bravo.

I knew you'd recover quickly.

Would you like more water?

Damn, it's tight.

Gong Ryong, you b*stard.

I won't let you get away with it.

- Are you Mr. Gong Ryong?

- Yes.

Sit up nice and easy.

- Enjoy.

- Thanks.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Eve Kim, the patient in Room 2.

Has she been eating well?

Yes.

HOSPITAL ROOM 2

EVE KIM

Hi, I brought your meal.

Thank you.

- Enjoy.

- Thanks.

ANY PLANS FOR AFTER YOU'RE DISCHARGED?

GONG RYONG

HOSPITAL ROOM 1

Any plans for after you're discharged?

You never loved me?

Me? How's that even possible?

Are you trying to get revenge for my dad

betraying you and giving Kang-su your job?

If you want revenge, go after my dad.

Why are you taking it out on me?

I get it. You're saying you were

miserably lonely and sad in space.

Fine, I'll put up with

your whining this time.

I left you alone

when you were feeling humiliated,

so now you're like, "Screw them all."

You want to pull this off

and rub it in their faces, right? Fine.

You're sick of my family?

Fine.

They won't be my family anymore.

Do you seriously expect me

to believe what you said?

HOSPITAL ROOM 2

EVE KIM

Come in.

Time for your oxygen therapy.

All right.

How's the hospital food? Good enough?

Yeah. After all the dry,

powdery stuff I had to eat,

it tastes amazing.

Great.

I almost forgot. Ryong wanted me

to give this to you.

This is for me?

He said it's a gift

and I shouldn't give it to anyone else.

- Weird guy, right?

- Right.

- Shall we?

- Sure.

The bed is so comfy, by the way.

For the oxygen therapy, let's pair them up

- based on their oxygen saturation levels.

- Okay.

Did you have your heart checked?

Is everything okay?

Yeah, they said it's fine.

You look even prettier than

you did in space.

Me?

You're just experiencing

a grayout, Dr. Lee.

The gravitational acceleration

during reentry damaged your vision.

It'll clear up

once you adjust to the gravity.

Dona.

No, that's not it.

Eve and Gong Ryong were hypoxic

when they were rescued.

- Let's pair those two.

- Okay, sure.

Dong-a.

Have you finished eating?

Yeah, what about you?

Yeah, me too.

No, it's okay. Leave it.

I know the smell bugs you.

I'll take it out.

You don't have to.

That couldn't have been easy.

Right.

I didn't just go up there

to save the tourist,

but to save the woman I love

with all my heart.

So you two are in a relationship?

Are you a couple?

There's no one in the world I love…

I put you on the spot, didn't I?

I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

It's Chief Kang.

I slept with her.

While you were away…

I must've been completely out of my mind.

There's no excuse for it.

I'm sorry.

When all I could think about

was saving you, I was shameless.

I acted like a nutjob

and had the courage to say,

"I'll go crazy if I don't save her."

"We'll live or die as one."

But now, I can't even look you in the eye.

Being here alone with you, I'm shaking,

and I can't breathe.

I don't know what I was thinking.

Get up.

Please forgive me.

Get up, Dong-a.

You know how simple-minded I am.

I don't like complicated stuff.

I can't understand it.

Please cut me some slack.

I'll wait until you can forgive me.

Are you still working?

CLOSED FOR DINNER

Sorry? Oh, yeah.

Ryong is still undergoing tests,

so you should visit him tomorrow.

I'll go with you ladies.

That's so kind of you to think of us.

Thank you, Ms. Choi.

Ms. Choi, how's the burn on your arm?

I hope it won't leave a scar.

Please don't call me Ms. Choi.

Who addresses

their daughter-in-law like that?

What should we call you then?

We're just so grateful.

Just call me Go-eun.

- What?

- What?

By the way,

why is he still getting tests taken?

He must be in terrible shape

if he has to take so many.

It's not just Ryong.

They're standard tests

for all astronauts, so don't worry.

They say it takes about 3 to 4 days

to readjust to gravity.

- I see.

- It takes that long?

We're taking up too much of her time.

Right, we'll let you go now.

See you soon, Ms. Choi.

All right.

Let's just stay and work then.

- Should we?

- Yeah.

Wait, but I want to meet that woman too.

We should thank her.

Who? The commander?

Why would you want to meet her?

Any discomfort?

Are you good?

Yes.

Okay, then. Don't talk.

It'll reduce the effect.

- Okay.

- All right.

Will the results

for Santi's sperm test be out soon?

Yes.

Let's get started.

This place reminds me

of the space station.

This will last longer than

15 minutes, right?

Do you remember

when we argued over the nine oxygen tanks?

We both insisted

the other should take the last one.

I guess we were terrified of being the one

to watch the other die first.

We're selfish people.

What a waste of oxygen.

You're breathing it to stay alive

after what you did?

- Dr. Kang.

- Who the hell are you to make Go-eun cry?

How dare you crush her pride

and hurt her like that?

All she ever did…

All she ever did was like you!

You think only your feelings matter?

What about hers?

What about her feelings?

You have no problem

breaking her heart

and tearing it into shreds?

I hope you suffocate and die.

You arrogant dirtbag!

You heartless b*stard!

I'm not telling you

to make things right with Go-eun.

So don't try to make amends.

Don't even apologize.

If you do that

just to make yourself feel better,

I'll k*ll you for real.

What's going on here?

Ryong!

What the hell?

- Aren't you a space scientist?

- If you…

- Let go! Hey!

- If you hurt Go-eun again…

Let go. Let go of him!

I swear I'll make you pay!

Why are you fighting like

a couple of th*gs in the hospital?

Are you insane?

Are you all right?

What the hell happened here?

He really laid into you.

Why didn't you stop them?

It looked like he deserved it.

Come on, you're not helping.

She's right.

I… I deserved it.

I can't believe you people!

You fought so hard to survive in space,

so why are you acting like

you want to die now?

I'll get the first aid kit.

Stay right here.

We'll finish therapy later.

Man, that's rough.

Look at us. This is just great.

I know.

KOREA SPACE AGENCY

The Korean astronauts are amazing.

Yeah, I agree.

A spacecraft

will head to the ILS as planned.

The mission has changed

to investigate the incident.

Since restoring power

is the highest priority,

we'll look over the solar panel,

the energy conversion device,

and the perforation of the storage module.

By the way,

how did the tourist get left behind

in the observation module?

He said that he was isolated

while trying to get his baggage.

Was he not briefed

on the severity of the situation?

I guess he was just

bemused or something.

Please try to find the tablet

and the cell phone

that the team left behind.

Is there anything else

we can do to support you?

THE TRUTH IS, I CAME HERE

TO CREATE EMBRYOS…

Here's your meal.

You're doing much better.

Could I ask you something?

What's that place

with all the tables down there?

Oh, it's a convenience store.

It's a convenience store?

Thank you.

Sure, hope you enjoy!

Will do.

How about I find us a good place to eat?

Code blue, code blue.

Paging Dr. Lee from Cardiothoracic Surgery

to the Gravity Adjustment Ward.

Code blue, code blue.

Paging Dr. Lee from Cardiothoracic Surgery

to the Gravity Adjustment Ward.

Code blue, code blue.

- Eve?

- Paging Dr. Lee.

- Report to the Gravity Adjustment Ward.

- Ryong?

Are you all right?

- Monitor, please.

- I'm on it.

Dona, are you okay?

Yeah.

Si-won, let's go.

Dong-a has no idea

it's his birthday today, does he?

I think everyone else forgot as well.

Even the commander?

Even her.

She's been caught up

in gravity readjustment.

I found it in his sock.

That dude is so…

Mina, are you feeling okay?

Wait, what are you all doing here?

Nothing.

What brings you here?

Oh, it's Dong-a's birthday today.

We planned a little surprise party.

Should we light the candles here?

Sure.

By the way, where's Dr. Kang?

He's probably in his room.

Should we invite the tourist too

while we're at it?

Sure, why not?

- What's going on?

- Gosh.

What are you all doing without me?

Nothing.

We're here to celebrate Dong-a's birthday.

We were just about to come get you.

Chief Kang is coming too.

By the way, where is Dong-a?

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday…

- You know what? Forget it.

- No, we're doing this together.

All right, fine.

Happy birthday to you

- Olé!

- Happy birthday.

Well, this is embarrassing.

Chief, I appreciate it,

but could you guys leave now?

- I knew he wouldn't be so happy.

- Ta-da!

- Ta-da.

- What's that?

Well,

I thought the commander should see this.

Si-won, why would you…

What is it?

We were supposed to do

the abort and reentry tests

with that manikin,

but Dong-a took it down,

insisting on taking its place.

He was all,

"Eve will die waiting for a rescue ship."

"I'll be the manikin."

He wouldn't budge.

Come on. Turn that off.

- Not a chance.

- Why? What is it?

- Hang on.

- Yeah, let's see it.

- Yeah, you haven't seen anything yet.

- Wait, what's this video?

Eve.

I'm scared.

I'm terrified.

You must be so scared right now too.

I'm coming for you.

Just hold on a little longer…

Don't give up, okay?

I know I'm not the most reliable,

but you still have to trust me

if you're going to survive!

I'm coming for you.

I'll never let you die alone, okay?

I won't let you die up there

so lonely like that

with no one around.

No matter how scared I am,

I'm coming for you, Eve.

Give me the remote.

Come on, turn it off now!

- Come on.

- This is the highlight, okay? This is it.

- Hang on.

- Why? I think it's cool.

We have to go faster!

Hey, listen. You've seen enough.

Thanks for coming.

Come on, you should leave. Get out.

Yeah, thanks. Just go.

No, let's keep watching.

"I'm coming for you!"

Dr. Gong.

Dr. Na.

Dr. Gong.

Thank you so much

for everything you've done.

I'm sorry.

Don't be. Now it's time for you

to do your job as the mom.

So, how are you doing?

Me?

I've got some tough competition.

- Sorry?

- What?

I have to admit.

The guy is pretty great and impressive.

No one in this world,

on this entire planet,

is as great or impressive as you.

There's no way. Who could compare?

They say infertility

could lead to the end of life on Earth.

You're the one who saved

our planet and everyone on it.

Come on, you're exaggerating way too much.

Do you really think I'm a decent guy?

I think

I'm nothing more than

a speck of cosmic dust.

A selfish, petty, and jealous…

speck of dust.

I'm not part of the Choi family.

I hope you find someone you love,

who loves you back,

and stay happy and healthy with them.

Do I deserve that?

Of course.

Will it happen for me?

Absolutely.

I don't think it will.

Any plans for after you're discharged?

How about a movie?

Do you want to go for a walk?

How about I find us a good place to eat?

Why don't we go get a haircut?

BUY TICKETS HERE

HOW ABOUT A MOVIE?

DO YOU WANT TO GO FOR A WALK?

RYONG, PARTY OF 2

HOW ABOUT I FIND US A GOOD PLACE TO EAT?

HAIR SALON

WHY DON'T WE GO GET A HAIRCUT?

Let's do all of these things

here on Earth.

Come in.

You didn't eat your dinner.

Or take your meds.

Ryong.

Mr. Tourist.

I'm not hungry.

Do you want to go

to the convenience store?

Are you cold?

No.

Let's go.

Come on.

Ten seconds left.

- Hurry.

- This is hard.

I can't believe we're doing this.

I know, me neither.

You added the entire seasoning packet?

- Yeah.

- It's going to be too salty.

It's supposed to be salty.

You should add more water.

Come on, ramyeon should be salty.

That's what makes it tasty.

I'm finally having some,

so I'm eating it the way I like,

the way I think tastes best.

- Eve.

- Yeah?

That'll spike your blood pressure.

Good, mine's too low.

Come on, add more water.

All right, let's see how salty it is.

All right.

Let's eat!

I feel alive.

It's so satisfying.

MU CUP NOODLES

SLURP, ALL DONE

All done.

Thanks.

Hot food makes your nose run, huh?

I'm so happy right now.

Ryong.

Yeah?

Let's pretend like it never happened.

What do you mean?

The sex.

I've snapped back to reality.

Everything that happened in space

feels like a dream.

I risked my life

walking out into space for some guy.

I saved his life

and kissed him.

Even when you said you'd created

a human embryo, I wasn't mad.

And when I thought…

we were going to die,

I had sex with you in the freezing cold.

I don't do that.

To me, that's like a dream.

A good dream.

That's not who I am.

I've woken up from the dream.

You should too.

That's not who you are?

Dong-a risked his life to save us.

That's not as easy as it sounds.

It's not something to take for granted.

And you have a woman

who trusted and waited for you.

Let's not hurt the people who love us

just because of the ten short days

we spent in space.

I'm going back to space in a month.

Once I do,

I'll never think about you again.

You keep denying yourself.

You keep denying your feelings.

Why do you do that?

For what?

For who?

You asked about my plans

after I get discharged.

I want to be done with you.

That's my plan.

WHEN THE STARS GOSSIP

It looks like

the two of them had sex.

So did you keep his legs still?

He gave the ticket back

because you did it, right?

Whether or not you and Ryong

end up together, it's all the same to me.

I wanted to meet you.

I kept thinking about you.

You're heading back to space soon.

Why don't you reconsider?

Stay with me a bit longer.

I'll need separate reports

from each of you.

Make sure you leave that part out, okay?

You're ashamed of what we did. Is that it?
