8 YEARS AGO
It's snowing so much.
I love it.
Here.
Are you here to eat mandarins?
NOEULGIL NURSING HOME
These mandarins are so sweet.
Are you happier about the cigarettes
than about me?
Sure.
I've only known you for 18 years,
but I've spent half of my life
with those things.
Smoking is why you're terminally ill.
If what I love is going to k*ll me,
then so be it.
If I tell you to live, will you?
How's the food at the orphanage?
It's not an orphanage!
I'm not an orphan, so stop saying that.
It's not a big deal.
If you have lousy parents,
then you're an orphan.
Well, you took their place.
That b*tch!
I can't believe
she got herself pregnant so young.
How could she have a kid with an as*h*le
who wouldn't even claim them as his own?
It's my life's regret
that I didn't pluck her hair out
and have her locked up
before she learned the naughty stuff.
That sorry b*tch.
What are you looking at?
They say pretty girls
are destined to have tough lives.
It's not her fault she's pretty.
The blame is mine.
Don't resent her too much.
Well, in that case,
should I marry a pretty girl like Mom?
What the hell?
Didn't you hear what I just said?
Remember that what you say
is bound to happen later on.
Whatever you do,
marry a girl who's kind and modest.
The kind of girl…
that wouldn't get pregnant
before marriage, okay?
You're missing something important.
What's that?
A girl who doesn't smoke.
Do you want more?
Sure.
Hurry.
Ma'am.
Are you looking for something?
Yes.
A groom.
A broom?
Are you going to help me clean?
No.
The must-have to get married.
The guy next to the bride.
Oh, a groom.
-Be mine.
-Be what?
Be my groom.
Please be my groom.
What?
Jeez. You don't have to look so disgusted.
It's just a joke, okay?
Why are you so opposed to it?
What's wrong with me?
My grandmother told me
to marry a kind and modest woman.
I'm kind and modest.
Do you know what you call
a kind and modest woman?
Son Hae-yeong.
You're kind and modest?
6 YEARS AGO
Never having to leave your nest,
you must not know the ways of the world
or care for the living expenses.
You better live alone for three years
before dating again.
He's paying.
All right.
That was you?
So that's why you hate me so much.
It's not the only reason.
You know he got married
after living alone for three years?
I made him a man!
Look.
One?
Is that enough?
If you finish before me tonight,
I'm going to finish your life.
So what's it to be?
There's nothing more modest
than insisting on using protection.
This is as modest as you can get
in the 21st century.
I hate you.
EPISODE 2
TRAINING PLAN FOR EDUCATIONAL MANAGERS
NEW MESSAGE
Are you busy, Ms. Son?
KWON YI-LIN, HR DEPARTMEN
I have time. What is it?
I need to confirm something
but not over text.
I'd like to talk to you in person.
When are you free?
What's this about?
Where are you off to?
It's almost time for lunch.
Ms. Kwon Yi-lin wants to talk.
As in Mr. Ahn's wife?
She's something, isn't she?
Ordering a manager around.
It's nothing like that.
The only vacant meeting room
is in HR, so I said I'd head over.
That's good.
Stay on good terms with her,
but don't get too close.
What is it?
-What?
-You know something.
No, I don't.
What are you talking about?
Are you sure?
Don't tell anyone.
The truth is, Ms. Kwon…
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello, Mr. Bok.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Have a drink, Secretary Yeo.
That's refreshing.
I'm telling her
that the CEO stole my coffee.
Then I'll tell her a mere employee
was rude to the CEO.
-Fork-gyu!
-Whatever, kid.
So you're telling me
Ms. Kwon's and Fork-gyu's mothers
were best friends in high school?
That's right.
Fork-gyu and Ms. Kwon are close friends.
If she's close to him,
why did she marry Mr. Ahn?
Come on.
Do you really not know why?
Ms. Kwon and Mr. Ahn…
love each other.
BRIGHT FUTURE IDEA CONTES
CONTEST APPLICATION
ATTACH FILE
You're eliminated!
Secretary Yeo,
do you know why
I hired you as my secretary?
I don't want to know.
I wasn't allowed
to hire a female secretary,
but you applied with your
uncommon surname, which means "female."
I couldn't have a female secretary,
but your surname gave the illusion of one.
I'd call it fate.
Why couldn't you hire a woman?
My mom kept pestering me
not to hire women…
Sir,
then just hire a female secretary
with the surname Nam, meaning "male."
That solves your problem.
Secretary Yeo.
Should I put up a job posting
for a secretary?
No.
I can't deceive my mom.
When will his insecure a*s
finally become secure?
You're here.
I was curious to find out.
What's this about?
I'll explain when everyone gets here.
More people are coming?
Ahn Woo…
What brings you here, Mr. Ahn?
Oh, is your meeting not over yet?
Come in. I asked both of you to come.
I see.
I thought the three of us
should have a talk in person.
A talk?
I found out that you two were closer
than I had been aware of.
So you were in a relationship.
I expected Woo-jae
to have experience dating.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have dated him,
because I like men with experience.
However…
a woman who should've stayed in his past
decided to show up at my wedding
and catch the bouquet.
You deceived me.
Ms. Kwon, the thing is…
It's so airtight.
Psych.
It's so warm.
I'm not accusing you of anything.
It's just that the CEO is especially
interested in this in-house contest
and the competition is fierce.
Naturally, we have to
be very selective and careful.
Before any issues arise later,
I thought we could get together
and handle this problem now.
So what you're saying is,
the proposal I submitted
to the in-house contest
and the one Mr. Ahn submitted
are a bit similar?
They're not just a bit similar.
It's more than 90 percent identical.
The shared experience you had
from working on projects
and brainstorming ideas together
seems to have led
to your proposals being similar.
At least, that's what I think.
A learning game?
Yeah.
What if we utilize AI machine learning
to create an arithmetic game?
Don't educational games tend to be boring?
That's why we'll make it fun.
I've been playing this farming game
on my phone recently.
So that's why you've been lazy
about texting back.
By spending money,
I get to harvest my crops faster.
We can apply this to the learning game.
Instead of spending money,
learning arithmetic concepts could…
Listen to me.
I am listening.
Come on, focus.
I am focusing.
Goodness.
Before the screening begins,
please discuss how you will deal
with this situation.
Okay.
Where are you going, Ms. Son?
It's lunchtime, so the cafeteria.
Didn't you hear what Ms. Kwon said?
If we don't come to an agreement…
"Agreement"?
What a victim and an offender come to
is a settlement.
"Victim and offender"?
Plagiarizing someone else's idea
is a crime.
You know full well
whose idea that proposal was.
-But that's--
-Withdraw your submission.
What is it? Are you going to kneel again?
Your kneeling is only worth 300,000 won.
How much do you have to kneel
to settle your plagiarism?
Haven't you heard the rumors?
You can't win this contest anyway.
CEO-led task forces don't let in single--
Regardless, it's my idea.
Will you let it go to waste?
How sad would it be
if it doesn't see the light of day?
I'll make sure to win
and have your idea implemented.
You'll feel proud too.
Are you asking for a beating?
I didn't want to say this.
-Honestly, my mother-in-law--
-Hey.
Don't take it there.
It's too pathetic.
So you know.
If you don't withdraw your submission,
I'll go straight to HR
and tell them the detailed and vivid story
of when, where, how, and why
I told you the idea for my proposal.
It'll be explicit.
Make the right choice
if you don't want to get divorced.
"Yes, we were together."
"We discussed the proposal
when we were dating."
"But unable to accept our breakup,
this is how she's taking revenge."
Hey, Ahn Woo-jae.
Who do you think they'll believe?
Me.
The truth always beats lies.
Be that as it may,
the truth can't beat scandal.
An unmarried woman
who can't move on from her married ex?
It's perfect for a scandalous rumor.
Make the right choice
or you'll end up in a scandal.
That as*h*le.
Mr. Ahn,
your suggestion isn't feasible.
-Ms. Son.
-I'm getting married.
In one month.
What?

What would you like?
I've quit smoking

I see.
-I was wondering…
-It doesn't work?
Excuse me, the microwave isn't working!
The sign says it's out of order.
Use the other one.
I really need to get married and--
Are you out

Yes, we're out.
You were saying?
I urgently need to get married.
-So--
-Save me one tomorrow!
Use the app for reservations.
So I need to reserve a groom…
I need to find a groom.
-It's not in the app.
-Hey!
Don't eat that spicy stuff.
Take care of your insides

And keep it down while you're eating.
-Well--
-Talking while eating makes you fart.

I was going to.
Good job.
-What a good boy.
-What's with her?
Good.
-Bye, kids! Good job.
-What's her deal?
Excuse me.
What are you doing?
I need a groom.
I'm getting déjà vu.
But not a real one.
A fake one for a fake wedding.
Are you drunk?
If being a groom sounds too pressuring,
we can call it part-time work.
Just walk down the aisle with me.
-Are you serious?
-Yeah.
You really want a fake wedding?
Yeah.
Is this a symptom of withdrawal?
Here. You should just smoke.
Are you from Pumpkin?
You need me to catch a rat?
Yes, it's on the third floor.

PUMPKIN MARKE
PUMPKIN MARKE
YEAR 2006
Found it.
She gave so much.
I'll get it all back.
What's up?
Seeing how much Mom gave out
as congratulatory money.
Hae-yeong's getting married.
What? With who?
-I'm still looking.
-What?
She's getting fake married.
That's my specialty.
Contractual dating and marriage
are romance novel clichés.
This is a bit different.
I just want the congratulatory money.
Just a fake wedding.
Wait.
Is no one else weirded out?
Who gets married just to get money?
That's fraud.
You remember our classmate Gyeong-jin?
She got married super hastily
just for money.
Well, she had to do it
before her father retired.
Because she gets more money
with her father not retired.
They're still happily married
since it was all real.
What if a couple gets divorced
after their honeymoon?
Is that a fake marriage?
You can love someone
and still get divorced.
So it's fraud if you marry
not for love but for money?
This is just like marrying without love
and getting divorced.
And what if you marry
someone you love later on?
I'd be remarrying.
In exchange, I get back all my money,
enjoy the benefits,
win the contest, and get promoted.
It's not a bad deal for me.
"Deal"?
Is marriage just a deal to you?
And you're going to invite Mom's guests
to your fake deal?
Are you fine with her using Mom like this?
I think…
You're acting like
you're her biological daughter.
You only care about being her daughter
when it suits you.
-Ms. Cha.
-It was the same with Dad.
You abandoned Mom when Dad wasn't around.
Mom needed you then.
And the best you can do as a daughter
is bring her a fake son-in-law?
What would be better then?
A son-in-law like Producer Yun,
who you've broken up with
-100 times over the past 10 years?
-Hey!
What does he have to do with this?
I'm sick of you.
So you weren't sick of me already?
Thanks a lot!
Stop it.
Ms. Cha!
Ms. Cha!
Just blow it off.
-Come on, Ms. Cha.
-Nam Ja-yeon.
You heard how she really feels
about us, didn't you?
We're only family when she needs us
and shitty friends when she's pissed off.
Come on, she didn't really say that.
Sure, she did.
Whose side are you on?
Come on, I can't…
I'm definitely on your side.
You are, right?
I'll find you a place you can move into.
-What?
-I don't get why you live here
and put up with her.
You know Son Hae-yeong.
She always hated
that Mom ran a foster home.
She wanted to be an only child
with no foster kids around.
Make her dream come true!
Are you down
for spicy and sweet tteokbokki?
I thought you liked tteokbokki.
Do you want some?
We can make it at home.
I'll cook it for you at home, Ja-yeon.
That's too much work for you!
Let's just buy some.
No, I want to cook for Ja-yeon
since it's her first day with us.
Exactly. She should have
good food on her first day.
Her cooking is edible, at least.
Don't even think about eating my food.
Really?
Hae-yeong.
This is Nam Ja-yeon.
-She's in seventh grade and--
-Is she a foster kid?
Yeah.
Hae-yeong!
Hae-yeong!
I'm sorry I didn't discuss it with you.
But Ja-yeon's situation is--
What about my situation?
I'm going to be a senior soon.
I'm sensitive, anxious, and stressed out!
Why would you be stressed out?
I've never pressured you about studying.
Exactly.
You've never been
interested in me.
She left.
You better call her first.
Why do you use honorifics with Hui-seong
but not with me?
Keep this up
and you'll be fighting one against two.
Is that what you want?
Let's all forget about this tomorrow.
Text us when you get home, Ms. Cha!

Earning minimum wage is stressing you out

All you need to do

You can easily earn
an office worker's monthly pay in a day.
See this? And this?

I mean, I got these as gifts.
Stop breathing.
You smell like cigarettes.
Then why don't you stop breathing?
NABOM GOSIWON
Why make me stop?
With a ceiling height of 14 meters
and an aisle 16 meters long,
this wedding hall
is most popular among brides
who seek grandiosity and elegance.
The dome-shaped wooden interior
and the organ
all combine to create
a reverent and graceful ambiance.
When's the earliest I can book this venue?
Our wedding hall's suitability can vary
depending on individual preference,
but no one has ever complained
about our catering.
The steak is limited to one per person
and is brought to the table,
and the families of the couples
have always been satisfied
by the Korean selection in our buffet.
When's the earliest I can book this venue?
As you may know,
our venue is connected to the subway,
and guests can park
for free for two hours.
The wedding car and the families' cars
are given five hours.
Sounds great.
When's the earliest
I can make a reservation?
There really is
no single place
that's completely
perfect.
I'm so glad it's fake.
A real wedding
would give me a real headache.
Hello?
Yes.
Yes.
Someone canceled their wedding?
That's great news!
I'll take their spot.
I'm nearby.
I'll be right there.
"Today, I denied knowing the person I love
and lied about hating them."
"I was trying to pass as a normie,
so I had no choice."
"However…"
Cut. Hui-seong.
Do you want to eat?
Now? Are you hungry?
No.
You just sound hungry
the way you keep eating your words.
Let's try that again
but imagine you're full.
Good job.
I told you to give me feedback
without messing with me.
That's like telling a dog not to poop.
Well, I'm not poop.
You're the poop I can't get rid of.
Woof woof!
Are you sure about that?
You're so cold these days.
Made up with Hae-yeong yet?
Has she ever apologized first?
No, it's always been you.
No matter what,
I'm not apologizing first this time.
That's good.
Just ditch her and make a new friend.
I'll introduce you to one. Let's go.
Come on.
I'm good.
I'm starving. Let's go eat.
Is there anything you're craving?
Maybe a sandwich?
Will you join me?
Maybe after you make up with Hae-yeong.
Please write your name here
and sign next to it.
All right.
You've discussed this
with the groom, right?
Three weeks is very soon.
He always goes along with my decisions.
We're basically one soul.
Oh, my.
You must be very happy.
Sure.
-Sign here?
-Yes.
-I just need to pay the deposit, right?
-Yes.
Where's my phone?
Thank you.
I should wire the money first.
To Paju, please.
Your mother has been
refusing to eat since yesterday.
Today, she has shown signs of aggression.
I called you
as we may need to tie her down,
but you haven't answered.
Please hurry here
when you see this message.
Come here, you b*tch!
-Ma'am!
-Get out, all of you!
-What's missing? Let me find it.
-You thief!
Come here!
You stole it, you thieving b*tch!
-Mom!
-It's mine!
-Mom.
-Come here!
Come here!
-Why are you here, Hui-seong?
-It's mine!
-You thief!
-Hae-yeong…
Get that b*tch.
-Get that thief!
-Mom!
Don't let her escape!
How did you know?
I got a call.
It was from an unknown number,
so I almost didn't answer it,
but they said they called me
because you didn't answer.
Then I came and saw her in that state.
You must've been shocked.
Is that all you have to say?
How could you do this?
You should've told us she was ill.
I didn't know either.
I thought she was in her countryside home,
but then she called and said,
"It's Mom. I have dementia."
"Don't worry about me.
I'm at a nursing home."
Why are Mom and I like this?
To all other kids,
she was an angel without wings.
But she never really got along
with her own daughter.
How could she not tell me
she was ill?
She didn't want to worry you.
Her illness isn't easy to deal with,
and she didn't want to burden you
or have you make a tough decision.
See?
It only took you a day to understand
what I couldn't for a year.
How did they know my number?
I gave it to them.
I wanted them to call you
in case something happened to me
or they couldn't reach me.
You're also Mom's daughter.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
But I'm still against your fake marriage.
You'd better not do it.
I booked the wedding hall.
-Already?
-It's on Saturday, three weeks from now.
Hae-yeong.
Weddings may be a vain formality
meant to collect money,
but some people
will genuinely be happy for you.
And it's not right
to deceive even one of those people.
And what if you find someone
you truly love and want to marry?
What then?
Marrying someone I love would be nice.
But the love has to last
during the marriage.
Then make it last.
Hui-seong.
Am I lovable?
I'm a calculating person who hates
suffering losses even in relationships.
Am I really lovable?
Find someone
who will love every aspect of you.
Such a person
probably exists, right?
I can wait until that person shows up.
But what about Mom?
Do you think she can wait?
Have you and Hae-yeong made up?
I'm mad at you now.
You knew Mom was at a nursing home,
didn't you?
I'm sorry.
Just you wait
until Hae-yeong's wedding is over.
I'm expensive to placate.
I'll treat you to fine dining.
So you're not against the wedding anymore?
She wants to get married
while Mom can be there.
I couldn't say no to that.
And she booked the hall already.
We need to hurry with the invitations.
I'll ask my boyfriend
to be the wedding photographer.
That's great.
He's good at taking pictures.
You're the best.
You're the best!
Welcome to…
What kind of nutcase
looks for a groom on Pumpkin Market?
I might as well check her out.
Where's my greeting, man?
Welcome.
I'm here to buy cigarettes.
How do you manage to sell them

Do you sell your principles with it?
Keep smoking so you'll die faster.
What would you like to k*ll you?
Magol.
Sure.
That'll be 4,800 won.
Ring it up. Isn't that your job?
You're supposed to pay…

Good morning.
Are you really going through

-Yeah.
-Are you serious?
How many times do I have to tell you?
Out of my way. I need to get to work.
Please excuse me.
What are you doing?
Are you okay?
-What?
-Is your heart racing?
Are you short of breath?
Do you feel anything?
No, not at all.
Even now?
I don't feel anything.
Then I'll do it.
Do what?
The part-time job.
I'll be your fake groom.
Seriously? Will you really?
On one condition.
What is it?
A home.
What?
A roof over the head.
This is Baby.
This cat's a baby?
That's one huge baby.
How big is it going to get?
No, the name is Baby.
I see.
I want to get it spayed,
but it needs a foster home
where it can recover after the surgery.
I live in a gosiwon, so it's too small.
Why not stay here then?
My manager is scared of cats.
I'll take the part-time job
if you take care of Baby for a week.
One whole week?
I'll have the food and litter ready.
Just let it stay at your house.
At my house?
The thing is,
-my landlord…
-You own the place.
Well, it's a multi-unit building.
It's a single-family house.
Find another groom then.
No, I like cats.
Baby!
Where did it go?
Where's that nutcase
who was looking for a groom?
Did she find one already?
But what insane guy
would volunteer to be a fake groom?
Convenience Store Boy,
I feel bad taking this
when you only make a minimum-wage.
My heart hurts.
Stop breathing.
I can smell the cigarettes.
Does that b*stard own the air or what?
Would I really just have to
walk down the aisle?

We need to order more chicken breasts,
protein bars, and protein drinks.
Just a minute.
-Chicken breast and…
-A wide variety would be good.
As for the protein bars and drinks…
I'll let you know
once I check their nutritional values.
-So, the protein drinks and--
-Just a moment.
What's the matter?
-How tall are you?
-I'm 185 cm.
Okay.
-How much do you weigh?
-Seventy-five kilograms.
Seventy-five.
What's your pants size?
You don't know?
You're more interested in my measurements
than my name or age?
Your name is Kim Ji-uk.
Your age?
I'm sure you're younger than me.
-Tell me your pants size.
-Care to explain first?
These are personal questions.
Oh, right.
I'm on my way to a bridal shop,
and I was thinking of
renting your tuxedo too.
-Right now?
-Yeah.
-Alone?
-Yeah.
What got into you that day?
What day?
You know, the day it rained.
When you agreed to be my fake…
I mean, when you agreed to take the job.
You suddenly
hugged me.
I didn't hug you.
It was just a test.
What test?
To see if you're allergic to cat fur.
I'm always covered in cat fur.
I see.
I was mistaken.
I thought it was a different test.
What do you mean?
A likability test.
-What?
-Just in case.
This is a business relationship,
so it'd make things weird
if any feelings develop between us.
You and…
The only feelings that would develop
between you and me
are dislike or even extreme disgust.
You're awfully pessimistic
for a young man.
I know too much about you
to develop a romantic interest in you.
Knowledge is in the head,
and romantic interest is in the heart.
You never know.
How do I look?
You're so…
very…
embarrassing.
Is this that embarrassing?
Has anyone ever tried on this dress?
She's the first one.
Did you hear that?
If you're going to wear that dress,
you better pay me extra for humiliation.
I'm sorry. Please excuse me.
Is it that bad?
Is your goal to make your guests laugh?
Well, it's to make them
only remember the bride.
Why?
Because the bride
is the star of the wedding?
No, so that they don't remember you.
As for me,
I made this choice to get married.
But it's a one-day job for you.
You're a young man with a bright future.
I'm worried that people will remember you
as a married man.
You're worried
about me?
Yeah.
I hate suffering losses,
and I hate making others suffer losses.
This is Yeon Bo-ra,
the writer of Spice Up Our Love.
Nice to meet you.
And this is the investor
in the audio drama adaptation
of Spice Up Our Love.
I'm sorry, your real name is…
It's HajunLove. I'm a big fan of yours.
I'm a frequent commenter.
You're HajunLove?
I know who you are.
Thank you so much!
No, I should thank you.
One comment from you
beats out a hundred hate comments.
You keep me sane.
I've read and reread every single episode
of every work you've written.
It's so new and exciting
every time I read it.
Oh, my gosh!
I'm moved every time.
Especially the walk-in fridge scene
in Spice Up Our Love.
Through that scene, Ms. Yeon,
I could sense your in-depth approach
to humanity's greatest desires,
appetite and sexuality.
When the nutritionist
who symbolizes appetite,
meets her boss
and feels her sexual desires awakening
and undoes his belt…
Oh, my!
I couldn't help but applaud you.
But it is a bit disappointing
that it's only fiction, isn't it?
I keep trying to imagine
what the perfect boss in your novel
would actually look like.
My imagination isn't enough
to comprehend--
-What's wrong?
-Are you okay?
What is it?
Secretary Yeo.
-What's the matter, HajunLove?
-Sorry?
Yeo Ha-jun!
Why do you need your secretary
at your gym session?
I'm doing an extra set today
for missing last week.
What if I die?
Then I'll clock out.
You little…
Come running to me when I give you a sign.
Act like something urgent
came up at work, okay?
-Answer me.
-Okay.
-With more spirit!
-Okay.
That's more like it.
Did you see someone you know?
-No.
-No.
Just a moment.
What do I wear?
Whatever you'd like.
Take your pick.
Manager Son?
Ahn Woo-jae?
Manager Ahn Woo-jae.
Manager Son!
Keep it down.
Manager Son Hae-yeong.
Babe, what are you…
Oh, Ms. Son!
Ms. Kwon.
I heard you were getting married.
Are you only now looking at dresses?
Yes, I've been a bit busy.
What brings you two here?
My cousin asked me
to help pick out a dress for her wedding.
She thought my dress
and hanbok looked great.
This is great!
We have some extra time.
Why don't we help you with your dress?
No, it's all right.
I've already picked out my dress.
Oh, really?
What about the groom's tuxedo?
I could recommend a tailor shop.
Their ready-made options are great,
but you should get a custom-made…
I'm done.
Is that the groom?
Can I step out?
-No!
-Yes!
You see, he just got here
from his part-time job.
He doesn't normally look that…
How do I look, ma'am?
EPILOGUE
How many invitations do you need?
One hundred and sixty-three.
CONTEST PROPOSAL SUMMARY
We can order either 100, 150 or 200.
Then do 200.
I'll invite 37 more guests.
It still looks a bit dull.
We could have a laser-cut frame, and…
Let's add a ribbon!
Silk is better than satin, right?
We can choose either a sealing
or wedding stamp for free.
Hae-yeong, do you want--
Nam Ja-yeon.
-What?
-That all sounds like gibberish.
Just choose the cheapest one.
Then it won't look nice.
I found my groom at a convenience store.
Who cares if the invitation looks rough?
What's the point of this wedding, Ja-yeon?
To collect money.
Minimal expenses, maximum revenue.
Got it?
-I don't get it!
-You startled me!
Why the convenience store's rabid dog?
Why not someone with a decent job?
People are going to ask
about where he works.
Then just lie
and say a random company name.
What if a guest works there?
She'll get caught for sure.
That's why the rabid dog,
the convenience store part-timer,
is perfect for the role.
He has no real job
and therefore doesn't know anyone.
If he's unemployed,
he should at least be good-looking.
Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.
Why would you marry him then?
Right, it doesn't make sense right now.
He can't be good-looking.
-Why not?
-Why not?
Do you remember the guy
we saw in Bali five years ago?
I do! The surfer boy of Seminyak!
He had a blue board and yellow shorts.
I'll never forget him.
See? You remember
exactly who I'm talking about.
A good-looking guy is unforgettable.
If the groom is good-looking,
the guests will remember him forever.
Should a one-day groom be unforgettable?
That's why he needs to be an average Joe.
He can neither be ugly nor good-looking.
Most importantly,
he can't be a total stud.
THANKS TO KIM HAE-SOOK, LEE SEUNG-JUN,
AND OH YE-JU FOR THEIR SPECIAL APPEARANCE
I told you the guests
can't remember your face.
You can't be this good-looking!
By the way, Ms. Son.
-Did he propose to you?
-"Propose"?
It's supposed to be, "The lovely Hae-yeong
taken by her loving boyfriend," right?
Your eyes are dead.
You need to do this.
We can't get married if you don't.
That man is your ex, isn't he?
You seemed very reluctant.
You know quite a lot about me.
Are you sure you won't regret it?
It's your last chance to back out.
