[chuckles] Can't be for me.

Student council?

STUDENT COUNCIL

-[Su-ji] What is it? Do you sell those?
-[Mi-rae gasps]

[Mi-rae] Please don't be the guy.

[hip-hop beat playing]

-Never.

HANSAE KUMDO CLUB

Ms. Choi,
do you know why this line is so long?

Girl! Who the heck's Ms. Choi?
That's twice you call me that already.

Ah! Just wanna see
if you're listening to me. [chuckles]

They're all in line to get tickets
to the Kumdo Club match starting soon.

I heard some girls talking
about it in the restroom earlier.

They were saying it's sold out.
The line must be for no-shows.

I didn't know kumdo was so popular.

Since the star player joined the team,
they leave soccer and hockey in the dust.

THE 13TH HANSAE-KOSAN KUMDO FRIENDLY MATCH

You have tickets? Why didn't you say so?

I'm clueless when it comes to sports,
but these are like gold.

What do you think?
Should we go check it out?

I know we need to.

I'm sure of it.

Let's run! Ah! [giggles]

[dreamy music playing]

[Su-ji giggling]

[girl 1] There he is!


HANSAE VS KOSAN

[crowd cheering]

Who's that?

Get lost! I told you
you couldn't stand here.

-That's not fair!
-No one can see.

-You think that's fair?
-Come on.

-Sit down.
-[girl 2] I just need to…

Does a friendly match
not apply to spectators?

Fangirl drama.

[announcer] Kumdo friendly matches
will begin in a moment.

[crowd chanting] Hansae University!
Hansae University!

EUN-h*, WE LOVE YOU
GO GET 'EM!

-[Su-ji] Go Hansae! Go Hansae!
-[overlapping shouts for Hansae and Kosan]

[referee] Begin!

-[suspenseful music playing]
-[crowd continue chanting for both teams]

[fighters grunting]

Oh!

[excited cheering]

-Way to go!
-[girl 1 squeals] Oppa!

[both grunting]

[excited cheering]

[announcer] With that, Seo Eun-h*
of Hansae University wins the match.

Coming up next, we have Park Myeong-seong
of the Hansae University Kumdo Club

versus An Hong-mo of Kosan University.

The match will begin in a few moments.

-[girls whispering, giggling]
-[camera clicking]

[raucous cheering, squealing]

[Eun-h* exhales sharply]

-[dreamy romantic music playing]
-[girls squealing]

[Mi-rae gasps]

-[girl 1] He's so cool.
-[girl 2] And so hot.

[automated voice] Ms. Seo Mi-rae,

congratulations,
you just met your second date!

[chuckles softly]

I knew it.

You're the guy.

[chuckles softly]

EP03 - FIRST LOVE 101

[music fades]

[distant drumming echoing]

HANSAE KUMDO CLUB

-[girl] Are you joining because of Eun-h*?
-Oh, no.

It's okay. We only did because of him.

Don't you think
he's almost as sexy with his mask on?

-Yes!
-[all giggling]

Heads up.
You'll have to get past us first.

-[tense music playing]
-Ah.

[Su-ji chuckles uneasily]

Does everybody have a crush
on this guy? I'm confused.

He has that effect on girls.
Dreamiest guy on campus.

We're hoping he gets his masters, PhD,
post-doc, professorship and tenure

so he never leaves.

Architecture's finally gonna have
a hottie teacher.

He's in Architecture?

He's such a good athlete, I thought
Phys Ed, but he's got brains too.

I never even knew where the library was
until I followed him there.

-Oh my God! [giggling]
-[girls squealing]

[Mi-rae] So the most popular guy
on campus likes me?

[chuckles softly]

I like the sound of that.

-What's so funny?
-Huh?

Oh. [tuts]

Inside joke. [chuckles softly]

[uneasy music playing]

Why are you joining?

It's my first year,
so I'm hoping to make some new friends.

[laughing]

[laughter continues]

Huh? I guess I got in.

Huh. He's the cutest.

Hello, first-years. Welcome to the club.

-Say hi.
-[all] Hi.

[girls] Hello. Hi.

[thuds]

-Her?
-Eun-h*! You having a staring contest?

[Mi-rae] She's the girl
I kinda met earlier.

I'd love to be that gorgeous
and intimidating.

[Mi-rae] No kidding.

[soft romantic music playing]

[birds twittering]

[leader] Kumdo is the best sport
for training your mind and body.

In our club, we focus on
teaching you every aspect of it,

from the basics to battles.

So first, we'll start by showing you
the fundamental footwork and stances.

Any volunteers?

Just raise your hand.

Excellent.

On your feet.

Huh?

Oh, uh, uh, sorry.
I… I can't. Someone else can go.

-It's all right. You can do it.
-Go on!

[Mi-rae yelping]

Sup?

-What's your name, first-year?
-Mi-rae. It's Seo Mi-rae.

Who would like to help
give the demonstration?

[slide whistle plays]

Eun-h*. Looks like it's you.

They probably all came to see you anyway.

[sighs] Should I get up?

He'll be teaching you your lesson.

Uh-huh.

[gentle music playing]

[Eun-h* sighs]

Nervous?

Just a little.

Have you ever held one of these?

Not at all. [chuckles]

Here.

Hands go like this.

Step forward with your right foot.

Ready? May I?

Yes.

[Eun-h*] This is the high stance.

Head strike.

And this one is the middle.

The middle stance is your neutral stance.

Wanna try?

Yeah.

[music softens]

-[music fades]
-[exhales slowly] Come on.

[chuckles softly] I'm coming.

-[air whips]
-[dramatic music playing]

-[gasps] Oh.
-[girls] Wow!

Nice! Head strike.

This is your first time?

I guess it's beginner's luck.
[chuckles awkwardly]

What the heck? What happened?

I barely passed any of my gym classes.

You think it was beginner's luck?
Come. Try that again.

Sure.

[chuckles softly]

[dramatic music playing]

[Mi-rae grunting]

[gasps]

Oh. [grunts, gasps]

Ooh!

[gasps]

[music fades]

[Eun-h* exhales sharply]

-[gasps] Uh.
-[girl 1] Wow, that was a blur.

-[girl 2] No way she's never done this.
-[shocked murmuring]

-He gave That's a first.

So impressive. You know that's hard to do?

Come on. Eun-h* went super easy on her.

I didn't.

You're a natural.

I'm glad you joined us. [chuckles softly]

[chuckles softly] Thanks.

[chuckles]

-Head strike!
-Here.

God, he's so freaking cool. [giggles]

[Mi-rae] I know, right?

-[Su-ji] So big and strong.
-Middle stance.

And his stare, it makes
you melt like chocolate.

-[both squealing]
-Doesn't it? [giggles]

[boy] Everything in balance. High stance!

-Head strike!
-[uneasy music playing]

So good.

You're talking about him?

Huh?

Huh? Oh…

[chuckles]

[chuckles nervously]

You know you can't learn this
unless you get in here.

[automated voice] Jung-pil,
Kumdo Club senior.

Uh… I can't.

And who's this?

-Su-ji.
-Su-ji?

-Yeah.
-Come on, Su-ji.

'Kay. [giggles]

-[Jung-pil] The key to kumdo
-[Su-ji[ Yes?

…is smooth movement.

-Smooth.
-[Su-ji giggling]

-Smooth! Smooth!
-[giggling] That was so smooth!

-[chuckles] Your turn.
-I'll try.

-[Jung-pil] Right foot.
-[Su-ji] Head strike!

-[Jung-pil] That's it. Try…
-Ye-rin, I need to head out.

-[Ye-rin] Okay.
-[Jung-pil] Head strike!

-[Su-ji] Head strike!
-[Jung-pil chuckling]

Eun-h*!

[Mi-rae sighs]

-You going to lunch?
-In a while. Why?

[takes deep breath]

You think you're up for a lunch date?

With the group?

[chuckles softly] Just us.

Are you asking me out?

Yes. [giggles softly]

I won't tell you I'm not flattered.

-Hmm?
-But no, thanks. I don't know you enough.

-What?
-See you around.

-[uneasy music playing]
-Hey, come back! Can we talk?

[Ye-rin] Hey, Seo Eun-h*.

Have you had lunch yet? I'm starving.

-Let's hit the caf.
-Mm-hmm.

[disbelieving chuckle]

-I have to compete for your attention?
-[manager] You think it's unfair?

[Mi-rae] The boyfriend is supposed to be
my boyfriend, isn't he?

Eun-h* is not supposed to be
your boyfriend just yet.

Why not?

We put a lot of thought
into our 900 candidates.

-Some require patience.
-[sighs]

I get it.

THE MAN TO KNOW, CHOI SI-WOO

But why was it so easy with Choi Si-woo?

Don't forget these characters
have their own scenarios.

[laughing]

I have to admit, I'm surprised.
You didn't strike me as the princess type.

[huffs] I'm not. I just wanna know
if Eun-h* and I will end up together?

Each theme is different.

They have varying levels
of dating difficulty.

I thought the whole point was to avoid
all the hassle of real-life dating.

If it's too demanding, just switch
to another theme. Try one of them.

Uh, hold on. I… like Eun-h*.

I think you're better off
with a more obvious choice

if it's too much work.

Yeah. He is

work.

-[gasps]
-[pings]

[music ends]

Oh my God!

[Mi-rae] Mm.

[sleepy murmuring]

The lights.

Ah, another all-nighter.

-[mugs clinking]
-I'll make you one.

You must be happy
about PlanC's great start. Hmm?

[machine beeps, starts whirring]

[murmuring softly]

Ms. Yun's a real challenge.

That's what I've been told, yeah.

So, I heard you asked
to publish on Fridays?

-Not at all.
-[beeps]

[inhales deeply] Yeah.
Mi-rae said you wouldn't stoop that low.

-Are you sure? She hates my guts.
-[machine beeps]

[Dong-min chuckling] Isn't it mutual?

[cell phone buzzing]

[frustrated sigh]

[groans]

[sleepily] Hey.

Sir!

-[knocking on door]
-Enter!

-You wanted to see me, sir?
-[sighs]

Ms. Yun just talked my ear off.

She did? About what?

Well, does that woman ever call
for any other reason?

[tense music playing]

I don't want to die from writing webtoons.

If things don't change, I'll have to quit.
Can you book a hiatus? Huh?

[Mi-rae sighs heavily]

Did she… [sighs] …threaten to quit again?

-She wants to quit?
-Huh?

-Huh?
-Sort of.

Oh, sh**t.

She wants a break?

Two weeks, she said.
So she did kinda threaten to quit.

Ugh.

Once she rests up,
she'll come back good as new.

-You did good.
-Yeah?

Really good. I enjoyed it. You've got
a knack for this. Stop trying to avoid it.

Oh, please, sir.

So, while she's on hiatus,
you need to look into some new ideas.

So she is on hiatus?

-[squealing, giggling]
-[Mi-rae chuckling]

-My bestie on a friggin' weekday!
-That smells so good. Get in here.

[Ji-yeon squeals, giggles]

So you get two weeks
while she's off, right?

-You wanna go to Jeju for some beach time?
-I wish.

I have my other writers to take care of,
so it's not like I'm on vacation.

Ugh! All you producers do

is work like dogs
and deal with all the drama.

-I don't know how you do it.
-I think I'm gonna cry.

-Best in town!
-[squeals]

Funny question,

if you could be 20 again
and do something you never did,

what would you do?

Hmm…

Sex.

Ugh. I was being serious.

[sighs]

And so was I! Obviously,
you're thinking about it, so what's yours?

I would act the opposite of how I did.
Be confident and spontaneous.

-"Spontaneous"?
-Mm-hmm.

A lot more doing
and less worrying about the consequences.

Like if I like a guy… just go for it.

Seize the day!
Use my boldest moves on him.

[snickers, laughs loudly]

Have you forgotten your twenties?

Course not.

You were bold and fearless and so cool.

-Fearless?
-Girl!

Once you decided
you wanted Se-june for yourself,

you just put it right out there,
and his crush on You-mi was done.

Mm! Buried that one, huh?

[pensive music playing]

That You-mi had it going on back then too.

[Ji-yeon] Not as much as me, but still.

Hmm. You're right.

I was that girl.

[sighs]

-So where the heck did she go?
-Ugh!

You were together for too long
and got lost, I guess.

Plus, we're old.

Se-june and I,

it was magic when we first got together,
you know?

[Ji-yeon] Yeah. I really envied you guys.

You were so in love, it was annoying.

[music fades]

[sighing]

[jaunty music playing]

[manager] Seo Eun-h* is
a bit of a difficulty spike.

[Mi-rae tuts]

[Ji-yeon] You were bold
and fearless and so cool.

-Carpe diem, right?
-[music fades]

[professor] When it comes to temples
in classical architecture,

they can be classified by the number
of columns at the front and rear facades.

When there are two columns,
it's a distyle.

Tetrastyle when there are four,
and hexastyle when there are six.

When it comes to the hexastyle…

[suspenseful music playing]

[music fades]

-[Mi-rae] Hi, Eun-h*! [chuckles softly]
-Hi.

-Can I sit next to you?
-If you want.

[sighs]

-Can you scoot in?
-Gimme a second.

[dreamy music playing]

[sighs]

[chuckles, speaks sweetly] Go ahead.

[perturbed music playing]

[sighs]

This whole aloof thing is annoying.

[sighs]

We classify the columns of a temple
according to their structure.

But still, since I decided to go for it,
I'm gonna pull out all of my old moves.

-[professor] In today's class…
-[giggles softly]

So which page are we on?

Ah… [giggles]

You're so focused!

[giggles]

[tutor continues lecturing in background]

[sighs]

Oh! [giggles]

[gasps]

Such a klutz!

[professor] The Doric were
first made of wood…

-[suspenseful music playing]
-[Mi-rae giggling]

[giggling]

[professor] One of
the most famous examples…

Mi-rae?

Yeah?

Did you have too much coffee?

[uneasy music playing]

Not at all.

Good.

'Cause I'm trying to listen.

Hmm.

[professor] This might be on the exam.

And when there are eight columns,
we refer to them as octastyle. Now…

Kumdo! That's where you're going, right?

-After I study.
-Uh…

[playful music playing]

That's a good idea.
That's where I'm going.

-I didn't tell you where I was going.
-Uh…

I guess I'll meet you at the gym, then.

[music fades]

You wanna give it a try?

[suspenseful music playing]

[romantic music playing]

[Mi-rae] What's happening?

[giggles]

He pulled me in so close.
That must mean something.

[music intensifies]

[Eun-h*] Don't hold back on me.

[music fades]

Not like you did last time.

I want the challenge.

[intriguing music playing]

[Mi-rae] Oh boy.

Put it on.

I think his pride took
a bit of a beating last time.

[whip crack]

[Eun-h* breathing heavily]

-[Ye-rin] Mi-rae. How are you?
-Oh, hi.

Good, how are you?

What's up?

Did you have a training session?

Sort of. Uh…

We had a rematch.

It was my suggestion.

-[breathing heavily]
-[Ye-rin chuckles]

And? You look like you went at it hard.

MI-RAE, EUN-h*

[Mi-rae] When they said I would be
queen of the campus,

I didn't think I'd be ruling with a sword!

[game battle music plays]

[sighs]

[Ye-rin] Don't tell me.

-She got you again?
-[Eun-h* sighs]

[Ye-rin] Wow! Looks like
she wiped the floor with you.

-Did you?
-[Mi-rae] Mm-hmm.

[tense music playing]

I need a shower.

[Mi-rae] Hmm.

sh*t.

[cheering, laughter]

Umchichi, umchichi, umchichi, umchichi!

-Bunny, bunny, bunny, bunny!
-Carrot!

[Mi-rae] Ah, it's been so long since
I felt this carefree.

-Just having fun with my friends!
-[Su-ji] Bunny, bunny, bunny, carrot!

-Bunny, bunny, bunny, carrot, carrot!
-Bunny, bunny, bunny, bunny!

-Bunny, bunny! Bunny, bunny, bunny, bunny!
-[chuckling] Bunny, bunny!

You totally missed that one! Drink it up!

-[all] Drink it up!
-[Jung-pil laughing]

I will

be his black rose.

-[squealing]
-Ooh!

Hey, we need a penalty drink in here.
There's not enough!

Give it.

I'll make her drink.

-Ah! All right, mix it up!
-Oh, Mi-rae.

[all] Whoo!

One bottle!

Whoo-ooh-ooh!

-Holy cow.
-[Su-ji] Now soju?

[cheering]

-[gasps]
-[cheering]

[girl] Two bottles?

There, black rose special.

[claps hands]

Mi-rae, where…

[Mi-rae] Oh.

…did you learn to mix drinks like that?

[Mi-rae] Okay.
Maybe I got a little too carried away.

[chuckling] On the Internet.

-Oh, Eun-h*!
-[girl 2] He's not at the library?

-[Jung-pil] Oh, sit, sit.
-[girls] Hi!

-[Ye-rin] Sit here.
-[girl 3] You made it!

You're missing all the fun.

-I had a deadline.
-Have a drink.

[boy] Almost done, Su-ji. Chug it!

-I think that's enough.
-[Su-ji groans]

It's fine.
I can drink twice my body weight.

-[Eun-h*] Thanks.
-[Ye-rin] Cheers.

-[Su-ji] I can do this!
-[Mi-rae] Ugh. I knew I didn't like her.

Being all flirty
with the guy I have my eye on.

She kinda reminds me of You-mi.

You have a leaf in your hair.

I said I would drink it. Ha!

-I volunteered so you didn't have to.
-Got it.

[Su-ji] I know your stomach
can't handle it, bunny cake!

Your kumdo skills…
Did you grow up around martial arts?

Ah! [chuckles]

No, just the arts.

Mmm. You're majoring in arts, right?

So you're a girl of many talents,
aren't you? A natural. [chuckles]

[chuckles insincerely]
Aw, you're too kind.

-[Ye-rin] Mm.
-[Mi-rae chuckles]

You shouldn't bother
with the false modesty.

Don't be rude.

Humility is a great quality.

[girl] Eun-h*'s right though.

It's either because you're insecure,
or you think you're better than us.

Ya snob.

[Su-ji chuckles uneasily]

-Tell me…
-What?

I was talking to Eun-h*.

[pop music playing over speakers]

What'd I do to you?

-[Jung-pil] Oh.
-Huh?

[Ye-rin] Huh.

You didn't do anything.

It wasn't meant as an insult.

Glad to hear it.

-[girl] Mi-rae, wait. You're not--
-[Su-ji] What's wrong?

Because I would like
to be more than friends.

[girl 2] What?!

Wow. [chuckling]

[boy chuckling] Just go and pour it.

[girl 3] You think you can just
cut in front like that?

Huh?

We don't know anything about each other.

What?

I wouldn't call us friends yet.

[girl 1 chuckles]

[girl 2 gasps]

I don't think I could do that,
even if I wasn't a first-year.

[Su-ji] I think you have
a little seaweed stuck.

-That's so embarrassing.
-It's cute. Like a little goatee.

[Ye-rin] Okay, cheers to false modesty!

-Cheers, cheers, cheers.
-[girl 3] Unbelievable.

-[Jung-pil laughing]
-[Mi-rae] Seriously, what the heck?

Good night, good night, good night.

-Wanna share this one?
-That'd be great.

-I'll get the door for you.
-Oh.

-Here.
-So chivalrous.

Now get in close to me.

-Where are you headed?
-To the dorm rooms.

Right. Frosh housing.

Mm. Are you heading over to study?

Mm-hmm. I have
a little research to do for a paper.

Mm.

Why don't you walk next to me
till we get there?

Kinda feels like you're trying
to sneak up and steal my wallet.

[gentle, hopeful music playing]

-Question.
-sh**t.

-Are you and Ye-rin more than friends?
-What?

[breathes deeply]
I think I came at you too strong.

So, what's your favorite food?

And color? You have brothers and sisters?

Are you drunk?

You said I barely know you.

So I thought I should change that.
[chuckles]

[Eun-h* scoffs]

[rain pattering]

[Eun-h*] Hmm.

[chuckles] Come on.

[whimsical music playing]

Let's run. [chuckles]

[Mi-rae chuckles]

One day, you told me

♪ "I love you, baby"

♪ "When the power's off
Will you still be mine?"

♪ I'm saving our loving
To my memory file

-[Eun-h* chuckles]
-Huh?

[laughs]

[laughing]

♪ I can't feel on my skin ♪

♪ I guess you'd be soft and warm

♪ And loving you though
Still feels better

♪ Even though you're a fiction ♪

♪ We are dancing slow ♪

♪ Those reflection glows
So real tonight

♪ I need one more chance… ♪

Ah! [sighs]

[chuckles]

[exhales, chuckles]

You're not going to the library, are you?
You're soaking wet.

-I keep a change of clothes in here.
-[sighs]

-Then you'll be carrying all the wet ones.
-[exhales deeply]

[chiming]

LAUNDRY ROOM

[Mi-rae] Isn't that convenient?

I don't mind. I'm used to it.

-You good from here?
-I have an idea!

If you aren't in a hurry?

♪ I need one more chance ♪

♪ Your voice drips like
Warm honey over my heart

[music fades]

-Does feel good to get into dry clothes.
-[sighs]

It's gonna take a little while, I think.

It's all right.

You should go get into dry clothes too.

I should.

But I'd rather stay here with you,
and be cold.

-[laughing]
-[chuckles]

[Eun-h* sighs]

-I've never met a girl like you.
-[laughs]

[Eun-h* chuckles]

You're not afraid to just go for it.

[pensive music playing]

[Mi-rae] I didn't see this coming.

[giggling]

That's for you.

Eat up. It's so good.

Ooh.

[chuckles] You're a bold one.
Do you always just go for it?

-That's bold?
-[chuckles]

I'm getting vibes.

[Mi-rae] Hmm.

[chokes, splutters]

[coughing]

[clears throat]

[Mi-rae] Why is this jerk
invading my thoughts all of a sudden?

[music fades]

[romantic music playing]

Oh boy.

I've been wanting to tell you

you do a mean hair toss.

You don't have to worry about Ye-rin.
[chuckles]

I'll go get some reading done
till my clothes are dry. Night.

I can study with you.

Wouldn't want you to catch a cold.
[chuckles]

[music fades]

[birds twittering]

[dog barking]

[gasps]

[sighs]

[huffs]

b*stard.

Why's he back?

[pensive music playing]

KIM SE-JUNE

[Se-june] General You-mi only lets me post
photos she approves.

But I'll let it slide since she's so cute.

Hashtag, soon to be taken.

[Mi-rae scoffs]

You posted a photo of us?

Oh my God. Why'd you use this one?

-It's cute.
-No.

You're pretty cute here.

But I look awful. This angle is m*rder.

You said I should post it.
Now, of course, you don't like it.

[scoffs] Why are you acting like that?

I just said I wish you would post
more stuff of us once in a while.

[sighs heavily] Okay.
I blew it. I can take it down.

[sighs] Leave it. You look good.

[sighs]

[pensive music continues]

BLOCK

-[water pouring]

[sighs]

[sighs]

I don't need to show off on socials.

My life's amazing, okay?

[sighs]

[music fades]

Then again,

there's no rule saying I have to tick
all the boxes in the real world.

[dreamy music playing]

[chuckles softly]

[music fades]

I'm buying lunch today.

[hopeful pop music playing]

[chuckles]

[laughs softly]

Nice move, Eun-h*.

I heard the architecture program
is intense.

Jung-pil says your blood turns to coffee
halfway through from all the all-nighters.

-And it's a five-year program!
-[chuckles]

[Mi-rae] But I don't think
I've ever seen you drink coffee.

How do you survive?

Ah, you're one of those people
who swears by tea?

I actually swear by flat whites.

Well then, let's go get coffee after this.

You like lattes? [chuckles]

[hopeful K-pop music playing]

All done.

-You like it?
-You did great.

[chuckles]

-[chuckles]
-[chuckles softly]

[sighs]

As I made new memories,
my old ones flew out the window.

And so did my beauty sleep.

[yawning]

Boyfriend on Demand had me totally hooked.

SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING

Eun-h*.

[chuckles softly]

How did it go?

The exam?

I'm sure I failed.

I couldn't focus.

[birds tweeting sweetly]

[romantic Korean ballad continues]

[cheering]

-[girl] Kumdo club rocks!
-[girl 2] Mm..

-[boy] I need to get a math tutor
-[boy 2] I'll help you.

[Su-ji] I'm thinking
kumdo was inspired by these things.

[girl 3] Chopsticks?
Kumdo means, way of the sword.

[girl 2] I'm with Su-ji on this one.
Chopsticks are lethal.

-You can stab all the vital areas.
-[Su-ji] Can you imagine doing that?

[girl 2] Whoever invented chopsticks
was a genius.

[girl 4] I know, right?
You can even use them in your hair.

[girl 5] Why?

What are you doing out here by yourself?

[inhales]

Can I tell you something personal?

Of course.

[indistinct shouting inside]

I wish you didn't see me…

as just a friend.

[romantic music playing]

Because a friend who's a big-time author
told me that my writing was awful.

Like that, "Awful." Pow!

And Naemo was born,
which is why you all have jobs,

and I'm not a worthless author,
and I can pay for all your drinks.

-We are forever grateful. [laughs]
-[Byeong-hak] What's with the voice?

-[Dong-min] We owe your friend. [laughs]
-[Byeong-hak] You drunk already?

Oh? It's raining.
They got that forecast wrong!

[sighs]

[sighs]

We're not used to seeing you
at company dinners.

I came because
my stove isn't working these days.

Oh, right.

-Are you going home already?
-Yes.

-No!
-You're going back to work?

-Why'd you sneak out?
-[scoffs] Rude.

This weasel thinks
those are my only two options?

I snuck out 'cause I have a date thing.

-[intriguing music playing]
-Oh, good for you.

-He's picking you up, right?
-Yeah, sure.

Then have a good time.

[groans] I'm such an idiot. A date thing?

[sighs]

[whimpers]

[sighs]

[music fades]

[teapot quietly hissing]

[sighs] I need tea.

[sighs]

[cell phone buzzing]

[sighs]

What now?

[inhales deeply, sighs]

VISUAL DESIGN CLASS GROUP CHAT
NA YOU-MI

[You-mi] We're so excited to share
the big day with family and friends.

You're cordially invited
to Se-june and You-mi's wedding.

MOBILE WEDDING INVITATION

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 23RD 2025,
KIM SE-JUNE, NA YOU-MI

[pensive music playing]

[Ji-yeon] Oh my God,
you two look great together.

Congrats, You-mi and Se-june.

[man] You-mi, you look amazing.

[Seon-ju] You'd better treat her
like a queen, Se-june.

-[cell phone buzzing]
-[Ji-yeon] This is so not cool.

She knew you were on this group chat.

[cell phone buzzing]

Yes, hello?

[Se-june] It's me.
Did you see it on caller ID?

No, Se-june.

[sighs]

You still recognize my voice.

-[Mi-rae] Why are you calling?
-[inhales deeply]

I feel bad.

About the post.

I assume you saw what You-mi posted
on that group chat earlier?

About the wedding?

Mm-hmm. You two look good together.

[Se-june] I'm sorry.

[pensive music playing]

For what?

[Se-june] That you had to see that.

Why? [scoffs]

It's nice that you guys are excited
about your wedding.

[chuckles, tuts]

[breathes deeply]

Thanks. It's such a big step, you know.

[Mi-rae] I'm sure.

I'll let you go. You take care.

You too.

[disconnect beep]

[sighs]

[device pinging]

[pings]

[sighs]

[automated voice] Ms. Seo Mi-rae,

your Boyfriend on Demand subscription
expires in four hours.

[sighs]

Your timing really stinks.

[music fades]

[sighs]

[pensive music resumes]

[kumdo team cheering]

[singing out-of-tune] ♪ I'm so sorry
But I love you, it's all a lie

[all whooping]

♪ I had no idea
I get it, I need you ♪

♪ I'm so sorry

In the heat of the moment ♪

[Su-ji] ♪ I had no idea I need you

♪ I'm so sorry, but I love you ♪

[pensive music playing]

Come on.

-[gasps]
-Wait.

[Se-june breathing heavily]

You can't just leave
mid-conversation like that.

If I'm hearing things
I think are ridiculous, I can. [gasps]

-Let go.
-[Se-june] I can't.

You'll run away if I let you go now.

And blame yourself if it ends like this,
pretending it's not going to.

You don't get to decide
how I handle things.

-[Se-june sighs]
-[winces] I said let go!

[scoffs]

Why… [breathes shakily]

…would you want to drag this out
when you made it obvious it's over?

You wanna quit?

[scoffs] Then quit already.

[sobs]

[poignant music playing]

[gasps]

We both know it's over between us.

This isn't working anymore.

I just said it first.

[scoffs]

How can we not work?

I'm still the same girl.

Mi-rae. [sighs]

You really believe that?

We've both changed a lot.

I believe some love stories
can last forever

when you can embrace each other's changes.

And it brings you closer in the long run.

But lately… [sighs]

…I realize that's not
what's in the cards for us.

[poignant music continues]

[music intensifies]

[sobbing]

[music fades]

[girl] Yeah, totally.

Yeah, I'm sure they have someone
under the green screen thing.

You wanna talk?

I'm sure you have something on your mind.

You don't have to talk.
I'm here if you need me though.

[gentle music playing]

[indistinct background chatter]

[Mi-rae] You know something?

Ever since Se-june and I broke up,

I never thought about how it was
when we first started dating. Not once.

[gentle music continues]

[cheering]

[laughter]

[girl] Here's to us!

[indistinct background chatter]

[boy] That game was amazing.

-Se-june! Yes! [chuckles]
-Mi-rae!

[romantic Korean ballad playing]

[chuckles]

NAEMO
SEO MI-RAE

How do I look?

I got you a little present.

[laughs] I love it!

[door opening]

Hey, gorgeous.

[Se-june grunts]

[Mi-rae chuckles]

All I remembered were the bad times.

And how things ended between us.

So I tried to forget

and just hold on to how much I hate you.

But the more I relive those early days
when we fell in love…

the less I hate you.

HANSAE KUMDO CLUB FRESHMAN
WELCOMING MEMBERSHIP TRAINING

[excited background chatter]

Ready to go? We're here.

[Mi-rae sighs]

Oh! Did you see that?

A sh**ting star just went by.

You like stars, Mi-rae?

[chuckles softly] Where are we going?

Just over there.

[wind blowing gently]

[romantic music playing]

[chuckles softly]

[chuckles]

[chuckles]

Eun-h*.

Do you like me now…

[sighs]

…that we know each other?

[chuckles]

If you fall in love…

with another girl and marry her someday,

will you forget about us?

You think you would?

[laughs]

I wouldn't think
falling in love erases everything.

It's all part of who we are.

I would remember you

because you're important.

[Mi-rae] How will you remember me though?

How I was in the beginning,

or… how I was at the end?

I'll remember it all.

The beginning and the end.

With all your changes.

The whole you.

-[gentle music playing]
-[laughs softly]

[sighs]

That's a

damn good answer.

[sweeping romantic music playing]

I wish you love.

You too.

You talk like we're running out of time.

We just started.
