[Sh**ting Stars]

Han Byeol.

Do I look better from the left or the right?

You look best from the front.

Han Byeol. How about signing her?

No. She has everything but one.

- Which is? - Good character.

She'll cause trouble down the line.

She says she's a sweetie.

A sweetie from Hades' garden.

I got an offer from two drama projects.

I don't see eye to eye with the director of one,

and the other, it's the writer.

Which should I pick?

You have to do one, right?

- Yes. - Then I'd pick the first.

After fighting with the writer,

you got k*lled off after five episodes.

- That's right. - Let's stay alive this time.

And film with Team B if possible.

Oh's Consulting is back in full force.

What a massive line.

- She's a consultant? - Yes. She's well-known...

for speaking eloquently and solving all problems.

Look. People from other agencies come too.

I'm done for the day. I have work to do.

See you next time.

- Goodbye. - Bye.

- We should work too. - Right.

I seem to be in a good mood?

You seem to be in a good mood.

That puts me in a bad mood.

What an idiot.

I should've talked right back.

Darn it.

Why did he come back three days early?

I was startled when he suddenly showed up.

He didn't want reporters to photograph him at the airport.

[Gong Tae Sung Press Conference]

Are they not reporters?

And are those not used to take photos?

Well...

Call it a beautiful ending to his volunteer work in Africa.

Gosh. What a beautiful spirit.

[Gong Tae Sung Press Conference]

[Gong Tae Sung Press Conference]

Hello, I'm actor Gong Tae Sung.

Mr. Gong, you look even more handsome.

Despite Africa's strong sun,

your skin's still so clear.

I wore clumps of sunscreen.

Even my legs are whiter than before.

I think the greatest moment was when we found the water vein.

The locals got access to clean water,

and I felt especially good when I saw the kids.

What I learned over there...

was how precious the things I took for granted are.

Clean water, clothes,

shoes, and food to fill my stomach.

Things I'd taken for granted...

were not naturally available to everyone.

I also thought I should treat the people around me...

whom I took for granted even better.

Many people love and support me,

and I will not take that for granted.

I promise to work hard and try harder.

I will also try to remain in a good mood.

See you soon.

We look forward to seeing you in a good mood, then.

Hello, Tae Sung. I'm Kang Min Kyu.

I told you, didn't I?

He's your new manager. He's a smart kid.

I'm honored to work with you.

You would be.

I am. I'll do my best.

Look carefully.

Darn it. I had a nightmare.

sh**t.

Home sweet home.

I'm so sleepy.

I should emigrate not to see that face of his.

Good morning.

Oh Han Byeol, you're 28 seconds late.

Can't you be punctual?

Darn it.

What?

Is something bothering you?

Just focus on your work.

What?

Was this supposed to be a secret meeting?

Were you going to badmouth me?

Just focus on your meeting.

You went over your lunch break by 30 minutes.

Do you think you're here to lounge around?

We had a meeting.

Then report it beforehand.

Hey!

This is your fifth cup of coffee. You're addicted to caffeine.

From now on, don't go over two cups a day.

Nice.

What? What do you want?

You don't want me to take a dump during my work hours?

Hey, don't be a jerk and bully me about my constipation.

I didn't say anything.

Good luck, Ms. Oh.

Why do I need luck?

Gosh, no.

How could you ask me to take down my article...

because the actor isn't happy with my article?

Does it mean we should please actors when we write our articles?

No. I can't take it down.

No. It won't be possible...

Did he hang up on me?

If you sigh like this,

will an exclusive magically appear in front of your eyes?

What's the point of having a name like yours?

You're always miserable.

What? A joke or two would lighten this tough world.

But now, I'm too scared to give you any advice.

Here's the Happy Virus to you.

Hello. I'm Happy.

Have a happy day.

Hello. Get my happy beam!

- Hello. Be happy! - Hello.

Hello. Be happy!

Hello. I look forward to working with you!

Hello.

Hello.

- I'll start the interview. - Okay.

Here's the Happy Virus to you.

I heard you earlier. You don't have to do it again.

You can just relax.

Okay. Thank you.

Sure.

You got a lot of attention as soon as you debuted.

How does that feel?

I'm so happy. And I'm very grateful.

I just did what my agency told me to do.

But the staff members...

I see. Lastly, you can address your fans...

- if you have a message for them. - Okay.

I want to give my fans a lot of my Happy Viruses.

So they will be happy when they see me.

Happy beam!

Okay. Happy. Thank you for your time.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Ms. Cho.

You seem very tired.

Your name means joy. But you seem so sad.

I will give you my Happy Virus.

Get my Happy Virus!

Okay. Thank you.

Happy Virus, charging!

There!

Ms. Cho, can I ask for your number?

Of course.

I'll send you my Happy Virus every day.

Please write a good article for me.

Of course. I'll write a good one.

Thank you.

Can we take a photo together?

I'll move forward.

No. I'll stand in the front.

Okay.

Be happy!

Happy!

Happy!

["Happy" gave me a reason to smile on my smile-less day.]

[I was able to reflect on how negative I had been.]

Min Kyu.

Yes, Ms. Oh.

Are you here for coffee?

But you already had two cups of coffee today.

Come on. Not you too, Min Kyu.

Drink it when he's not here.

Thank you.

You seem to smile a lot.

I do?

All the time.

Isn't it tough to work for Gong?

Gosh, no.

He's very good to me.

No way. It's easy for you to smile,

but it's not easy for you to be honest.

I think you're amazing, Ms. Oh.

I have to hold myself back because I can't pay the settlement money.

Gosh. But you two seem pretty close.

Smiling is easy for you,

but reading the relationship dynamic isn't.

When is he going home?

I think he will stay until everyone gets off work.

Come on.

- Hey. - You sent us the press release...

- for Jung Jin Hyuk's photoshoot. - Right.

That's the first press release my team's new recruit put together.

There's a problem.

["Jung Jin Hyuk Shows His Charms of 'Heads-Tall' Height"]

Where's the number?

I'm sorry, Ms. Oh. Why did I forget the number?

Forget it. Send out a correction email now.

Okay.

[Jung Jin Hyuk]

["Jung Jin Hyuk Shows His Charms of 'Heads-Tall' Height"]

Hello, sir.

This is Oh Han Byeol at Starforce Entertainment.

Yes.

The new member of my team made a mistake with the article.

Yes. Please add in the number, eight.

Yes.

This is when people get sleepy.

We wanted you to have something to laugh about.

Thank you. Please do that for us.

Bye.

Come on. Hurry.

Hurry!

["Jung Jin Hyuk Shows His Charms of Eight-Heads-Tall Height"]

Ms. Oh. I'm sorry.

Hong Bo In.

Stay focused.

Oh, my.

Oh Han Byeol. Look at you, Ms. Boss.

Well,

do you want to know what she did?

Back in the day, she...

I guess you don't want to be embarrassed in front of your team.

Hey, Gong. How much longer will you hold that grudge?

I apologized to you at least 1,000 times.

It's been six years!

Some wounds never heal...

even after 6, 60, or 600 years.

I still can't get...

a good night's sleep because of that.

Is that so?

- Then I will... - What?

apologize.

I'm very sorry about my mistake...

from six years ago.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

- Let's drink it. - Let's go.

I'm such an idiot.

I made it clear how big of an idiot I am with the press release.

It's all right, Ms. Hong.

With your logic, I should be called a fool.

A long time ago,

I was supposed to write, "Kim Young Min, a Fool for His Son".

But I forgot to add the last part.

So it became "Kim Young Min, a Fool".

Hey. My mistake trumps yours.

When I was totally new to the job,

I was representing Eun Si Woo, the legendary actress.

Okay.

She's retired now.

I made a typo with the press release for her travel show.

Of all places, I messed up the spelling for "Grand Canyon".

I wrote, "Grand Crap".

"Top Actress Eun Si Woo Goes to Grand Crap..."

"and Cries in Awe".

You're something else.

- You're something else. - Mine is the worst, right?

Now, I can laugh about it.

Back then, I felt all my blood drain from my face.

The comments on the article...

asked what kind of "grand crap" it was for her to cry so hard.

Should we take a group photo with just us dummies?

- Sound good? Let's do it. - Sounds good.

Okay. One, two.

[PR Team 3, Let's shake it off!]

[Idiot, Fool, Grand Crap]

[Drinks with my coworkers, I'll do better.]

By the way,

what do you think Ms. Oh's relationship...

with Gong Tae Sung is?

I thought they were just friends,

but after seeing them the past few days, I'm not sure.

Don't they seem weird?

I'm pretty sure he's bullying her, but there's a strange sense...

of affection.

Breaking news.

What is top star Gong Tae Sung's relationship with Oh Han Byeol?

According to our sources...

- I don't know either. - Hey.

Do you think...

they're dating in secret?

Last time,

I saw him whisper into her ear sweetly.

No way. I'm sure you're just mistaken.

Maybe he cursed her out with a sweet look on his face.

Think about it. If they're really dating,

would they be acting like that around our team? It'd be obvious.

- No way. - Right?

- It'd be obvious. - Maybe he wants to be with her.

- What? - No.

- That can't be it. - Right.

Ms. Oh went on a blind date recently too!

The night the Jang Seok Woo scandal broke.

You're right!

If Gong Tae Sung is your boyfriend,

who'd be crazy enough to go on a blind date? Right?

Then what is it?

Maybe he really has a grudge against her.

Earlier, when Gong Tae Sung said something,

Ms. Oh got startled and dragged him out.

He started saying National, and she covered his mouth.

National...

- Citizen. - My gosh!

What's up with you? Gosh, Dae Soo!

What's with you? Goodness.

What? "Dae Soo"?

Mi Nyu, you should get with the times.

Right. This is Han Dae Soo, the CEO of DS Actors.

Up until 3 months ago, he was the senior manager of Team 2.

You know Shim Jin Woo? He left with him.

Hello. My name is Hong Bo In.

Hong Bo In? That's your name?

I just got chills. Your name is Hong Bo In?

Your name describes who you are.

That's incredible.

Forget it. You talk way too much.

What were you talking about earlier?

Oh, that? Come close.

In all my years as a manager,

there was never a day...

as crazy as that day, and there never will be.

This happened 6 years ago.

Ms. Oh. Release that in five minutes.

- Yes, ma'am. - Check for typos.

Okay.

Hey!

- Hey! - Gosh, darn it.

Open this! Get out here.

You locked it? Come out.

Come out!

You really...

Okay. I checked to see that it's you.

I'm coming in.

I'm going to come in!

Hey, you! Get out here!

- I... - Get out here right now.

I'll come out. Please.

Breath. It's okay. Get out here.

Come out.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I'm going to... What should I do with you?

Hey. Look closely...

to see if I'm that or not.

No! Stop it!

At that moment, I flew in like a bird...

and covered that part of his body.

I stopped the worst thing from happening.

I've stopped a lot of fights,

but it was the first time I stopped a guy from pulling down his zipper.

Back then, Tae Sung didn't even seem human.

That was when he got something he never should've gotten.

What was it? PTSD.

He said he felt like there were people everywhere,

and they were all staring at his private part.

That was when Gong Tae Sung began tormenting Oh Han Byeol.

I see.

He's still upset about that? He sure knows how to hold a grudge.

Gong Tae Sung is really tenacious. That happened six years ago.

If you think about it, the movie received a lot of publicity...

and became a box office hit.

I know. I thought he'd get over it once he got back from Africa.

Whenever I have nightmares, he's always pulling down his pants.

But even in my dream, he never pulls it down all the way.

Even in my dreams, he never crosses the line.

Is it PG or something?

- Let's just drink! - Cheers!

Do you think he's been hanging in the office since he got back...

because of the archeologist incident?

His presence is starting to bother me while I'm working.

Wouldn't that make him an exhausting lunatic?

I'm sure he's tired too.

I don't know. It's...

Is there something else?

- What else could it be? - You didn't know?

She's the one who sent Gong Tae Sung to Africa.

Really?

My gosh. You're incredible.

You send a man, Gong Tae Sung at that, to Africa?

No way. I've never done that before.

I should try harder.

Wasn't that a rumor?

Am I a messenger of peace?

How could I send him to Africa?

Let's say it as it is.

How could you send him off...

when you can barely handle yourself?

Thanks for the fact check.

I'd love to send him back.

Can I make that an exclusive?

"Gong Tae Sung's agency..."

"wants to send him back to Africa."

Yes, write about it.

I'll take the hit for you.

Let's keep going, then.

Has he decided on a project yet?

A new project?

Well, it's not final yet.

What is it?

What is it?

He might pick Shin Yoon Hee's drama.

That's huge.

Ms. Shin wants him in it,

and so do we.

I'm so jealous.

Seok Woo wanted to be in that drama so badly.

The meeting's tomorrow, so we'll finalize it then.

The drama's huge.

There's no reason not to do it.

I wish it gets decided soon...

so we can ship him off to the set.

["The World of Stars" Grading]

Ms. Oh, what does your team think?

That writer Shin Yoon Hee's drama "The World of Stars" is best.

I won't do it.

Oh Han Byeol.

I don't like her expression.

It's so fake.

There's no sincerity at all.

Do you see that?

I see buds of annoyance.

Mr. Gong.

It would be best if you do this drama.

Everyone else is dying for the role.

Then...

let one of those dying people do it.

[Dying person 1]

[Dying person 2]

Park h* Young.

Did you just hear Tae Sung say no?

Too bad. You're a tad late.

I'm not late at all.

The role's my Jin Woo's.

So instead of wasting your energy,

go over there and sit in a corner.

You're the one who should save your energy.

That role will go to Seok Woo.

He practically shines.

What's this?

You are dead.

I will stab you right in the heart.

The casting of drama...

"The World of Stars" is becoming a w*r of the stars.

Star writer Shin Yoon Hee's new drama...

is currently casting its male and female leads.

Actors who want the role and their agency staff...

are working hard to land it,

which means a lot of tiptoeing and testing the waters.

Who will be victorious and lead "The World of Stars"?

Everyone is watching with bated breath.

So, do I stand a chance?

Shall I ask about it?

No.

That'll just backfire.

I can even talk to him.

Okay. Nice.

Okay, do that. Looking good.

Okay, moving in.

Okay, nice.

- Good job. - Thank you.

- Thanks. - Well done.

- Well done. - Thanks.

- We'll do the interview over there. - Okay.

Tae Sung, come this way.

Okay.

Why isn't Han Byeol here?

Well, today...

That brat is so out of it!

It has been so long.

I can finally breathe with Tae Sung gone.

I wish he had a photoshoot every day.

Life isn't worth living these days.

He made a fuss about the archaeologist thing again.

I should've gotten fired then.

I've put up with him for so long.

I'll say this now,

but Tae Sung saved you then.

Don't you dare fire Oh Han Byeol.

Don't fire her, okay?

How would I look if you fire her over that?

Okay, fine.

And...

don't scold her anymore. I'm fine now.

I'll stop.

He did that? Why?

Tae Sung, you're so...

How dare she get fired?

That's too easy.

I will lynch her, and I will bully her.

Oh Han Byeol.

I'll show you purgatory.

I guess it was...

- love for a colleague? - "Love"?

As if.

Was your memory twisted or something?

Isn't it important that we're all still working together?

Shouldn't you be at the set?

No, I passed today.

To get him to get to know Min Kyu.

Min Kyu's a nice kid. Cheerful and smiley.

Are they still awkward?

It'll take a while.

Tae Sung's not impressed that he's always smiling.

Would he prefer it if he always cried?

He's so picky.

He finds it hard to trust people.

Jung Yeol's great at printing stuff now.

I bet he's the best in our office.

When will you let him work in the field?

I'll wait and see.

It's great to meet you, Mr. Gong.

Same here.

What did you want to do the most once you returned?

The strict schedule...

made me really wanted to sleep in.

But I must be jet-lagged.

I keep waking up in the middle of the night.

And when I wake up, I feel like I need to start shoveling.

That's why I've been going to work at my agency these days.

Gosh. Are you like a director or an executive director?

The roles we often see you play in dramas?

No. It's not like that.

I just go there to communicate and interact with the employees.

We have coffee together too.

That sounds like a dream job for the employees.

You must love going to work.

You bet.

We've been very happy at work thanks to you, Mr. Gong.

Mr. Gong. Have you heard of ASGGTS?

"ASGGTS"?

All the scripts in the world go to Gong Tae Sung.

- It's short for that. - Gosh. There you go again.

You're too kind.

This just shows...

that a lot of people are waiting for your return.

When will we be able to see you act again?

When choosing a project, my opinion is important.

But reading the scripts with my team at the agency...

and discussing them bring me a lot of joy too.

That writer Shin Yoon Hee's drama "The World of Stars" is best.

I won't do it.

So I want to enjoy that a bit longer for the time being.

By the way, Seok Woo and Jin Woo are being considered...

for the male lead of Shin Yoon Hee's new drama.

Isn't that too good to pass up?

Gosh. I feel partially responsible that he's not taking the offer.

I'm walking on eggshells around Director Choi too.

Hey, Tae Sung. Come on in.

Oh Han Byeol isn't the reason why I turned it down.

Don't bother her.

Whatever I do, I'll make a lot of money for you.

You probably don't have to do that around him.

Don't you know him? He only does what he wants to do.

I realized this after spending many years on the job.

Everyone has their place.

Getting nervous will not solve anything.

Long years on the job must have turned you into Gandhi.

I'm serious.

Fascinatingly enough, everyone has their place.

Can you wait for me?

I have to throw out recyclables. I forgot to do that yesterday.

The building owner of my shop is...

He formed a band with the kids.

Father Lee Tae Seok believes...

that music will bring smiles to the kids who forgot how to smile.

I'm happy.

Luca.

Gosh!

I wonder if he's wearing his shoes.

["The World of Stars"]

Come on? Who's texting me this late?

Why did you want me to take on "The World of Stars"?

What is this? Why is he asking me that now?

Seriously. I'm tired.

[Why did you want me to take on "The World of Stars"?]

[I was curious.]

What?

Hey.

Well,

what are you curious about?

Your acting.

I could picture you playing other roles.

What? You pictured me in those roles?

Hey! I'm going to hang up if you're going to tease me.

No. Keep going.

I was just curious how Actor Gong Tae Sung...

would play his role in "The World of Stars".

Are you good now?

You made a fuss and turned it down. Why are you asking me that now?

Ask me about work when I'm in the office. Seriously.

[Synopsis for "The World of Stars"]

What? Is this a story about us?

I was curious.

Hey, Oh Han Byeol.

I'll make you go crazy out of curiosity.

Okay.

Ta-da.

What is that?

My gosh.

That looks really delicious.

- Can you feed it to me? - Should I?

Even the color looks so good.

- Come on. - Here.

Isn't it good?

It's really good. My goodness.

What's wrong with me?

We used to be trainees at the same agency.

That was a tough time.

Seok Woo took really good care of me.

Without Jin Woo, I wouldn't have gotten...

where I am now.

He means a lot to me.

- Seok Woo. - Jin Woo.

- I love you. - I love you more.

No. I love you more.

Thank you so much!

Did you say you were willing to take only half of his fee?

Gosh. You don't get to ask me about that.

Didn't you say he would be okay getting a cent less than Jin Woo?

I can't believe your cheap trick.

I have a question for you.

Where did you learn this cheap trick?

I learned it from my former senior. He's standing right next to me.

My gosh. Apparently, that wasn't everything.

I heard you even got the concert tickets for her.

You're unbelievable.

Hey, you win. No one can beat you at these petty tricks.

What? Look who's talking.

Didn't you follow her to Busan?

It's on the other side of the peninsula.

So what? It's not that far.

Busan is my turf.

I can even walk... No. I can run there.

Gosh. Seriously. I love you.

- I love you. - No.

- I love you. - I love you more.

- I love you more. - I know.

- Let's be happy together. - Yes. Let us.

Hey, try some of this.

["The Most Star-studded Drama Ever"]

Both the male and female leads?

Kang Yu Sung. How are you this good?

I knew Gong Tae Sung was a shoo-in for the project.

But how'd you get Da Hye in?

I didn't really do much.

Everyone has their own place.

[I'm actress Park Da Hye's manager, Kang Yu Sung.]

[Dear Ms. Shin Yoon Hee...]

[From Kang Yu Sung]

This is crazy!

This is insane!

Oh, my gosh!

Mom!

Tae Sung!

Gong Tae Sung! I'm the lead with Gong Tae Sung!

I'm the lead!

Tae Sung!

This is insane!

Mr. Kang is amazing.

I know.

The winner of this w*r was Kang Yu Sung.

Turns out he's the scariest one out there.

So? h* Young must be so disappointed.

You know how she is.

She got over it and went out of town to find another rookie.

Park h* Young.

Yu Sung.

- I came to realize something. - What?

That I'm nowhere close to your level.

About Tae Sung and Da Hye's casting?

It's no big deal.

No, that's not true.

I really didn't do anything. I got lucky.

That's not true. I'm certain you did something.

Just wait and see.

I'll find the next Gong Tae Sung!

I will try to get close to your level.

Have a nice day!

h* Young. Drive safe.

How cute.

Yu Sung? What are you doing? The noodles are getting soggy.

Right. I'm coming.

Here we go.

["The World of Stars"]

This looks good.

Come on.

Let's eat.

That's not true. I'm certain you did something.

[Kisan University Arts College Industry Alliance Acting Audition]

Hello.

I'm 27-year-old, Lee Dong Min.

[Can appeal with his cute looks]

How many cavities do you have?

You can't leave like this!

Fine. You can go if you want...

but leave the money.

I'm going to sh**t.

I can sh**t!

Bang.

[Zero. She's not flexible at all! Please save me.]

[Kisan University Arts College Industry Alliance Acting Audition]

Hello. I'm 22-year-old, Kang Dong Jin.

I lived alone since I was in 9th grade.

[Pronunciation, voice: Good. Pass!]

I had less money back then than I do now...

I had less money...

[But...]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'll try it again.

Should I turn around and tell her how I feel?

Sir.

Do you know what they call this part of a millstone?

It's a handle.

Let's say you're trying to grind something in a millstone,

and it falls out.

You'd think, "You've got to be kidding me."

That's how I feel right now.

You've got to be kidding me.

[Seriously.]

Same here.

Good job.

Were any of them good?

No. It was a total waste of time.

Finding a new actor isn't that easy...

- Oh, my gosh! - He's so handsome!

I'd like to order!

Can you look over here?

Or maybe it is.

- He's really handsome. - Amazing.

- Seriously! - He's so handsome!

Oh, my gosh.

- You're so handsome. - Did you get his photo?

Can you wait a minute?

- No way! - Oh, my gosh!

Get a photo of him!

- No way. - He's so hot!

["Rookie Artist Happy, 'I'll Be Your Happy Virus'"]

Hello.

Goodbye.

Ms. Cho!

- My article was on the main page. - Why is this so long?

You're the best!

Happy is so happy!

Have a happy day!

I'm sh**ting my Happy Happy Beam to you!

Wait.

Don't even get me started. My stage name sucks.

I shot about ten million Happy Happy Beams today.

Gosh, it's so hard to make a living.

Hey. I have to go. My stupid CEO is calling.

Darn it.

Hello, sir!

Of course.

Thanks to the name you gave me,

Happy is super happy today!

Have a happy day, sir!

Happy Happy Beam!

What a joke.

Happy's what you name dogs.

Darn it.

Where's my lighter? Darn it. Did I drop it?

Darn it. I'm in trouble.

[A smooth cup for you]

What on earth happened here?

Did you answer my prayers?

But seriously. What happened?

Some crazy manager hit his actor's ad with a car.

The tourists standing near the ad...

walked away with small bruises.

We've settled with them and agreed to cover their treatments.

You can use your insurance to cover the damage to the ad.

Thank you. I guess I didn't have to call you here.

It's during work, so it's fine.

By the way, you're lucky Gong Tae Sung wasn't in the car.

Yes. It could've ended with a huge article.

We didn't get any calls from reporters,

so it should pass quietly.

Why wasn't he in the car today?

He was up all night reading the script for "The World of Stars".

My gosh. He's so lucky.

But how did Min Kyu end up doing this?

What happened?

He...

never smiles at me,

but he's smiling so brightly in the photograph.

So I...

got upset...

I'm sorry.

You know.

It was careless driving.

Hey, Dae Soo.

Do you know any decent managers?

Manager, my foot.

My manager ran away,

so I'm acting as a road manager.

Me, the CEO!

You're distracting me. I'll call you later. Bye.

Goodness.

- Hey. - Hey, Tae Sung.

Is Kang Min Kyu quitting?

Yes, I think so.

Right. Of course.

He was always smiling, but he dared to crash into my face?

We need to find you a new manager. Is there a quality you want?

Driving safely is the best.

Just...

find me a manager who drives well.

Okay.

Someone who drives well...

[The king of driving]

Gosh.

Were you looking for me?

No.

So...

I'm just saying this, so you don't delude yourself.

I'm not doing the drama because of what you said.

What?

Why don't you say the script just fell into your lap?

["The World of Stars"]

Gong, can you stop coming here?

I hate having you around.

You're such a huge disturbance!

I come here to get on your nerves.

To disturb you at work.

Darn you.

Oh Han Byeol.

Did you enjoy yourself after sending me to Africa?

Gong, get your facts straight.

I didn't send you. You said you'd go.

So?

Is that why you didn't call once?

- I heard something huge. - What?

Tae Sung went to Africa because of Ms. Oh.

What? For real?

No way.

[Epilogue]

Just a moment.

It can't be.

Oh?

[Park Han Byeol]

Darn it.

Jang Han Byeol, Oh Eun Byeol.

Oh Han Bi, Choi Dae Hak.

Oh Han Byeol, you won't write even once?

Hey.

Yes, I'm wearing sunscreen.

Okay, bye.

[Call history: Today]

Oh Han Byeol.

You won't call even once?

I won't call you either. Why should I?

I'm Gong Tae sung.

[Connecting]

Hey, it's working!

Tae Sung!

Hi. Are you at the office?

What? Yes, we're at the office.

Why are you so thin?

Do you not like the food there?

No, I eat well.

You've lost a lot of weight.

Tae Sung, do you hear me?

You wear sunscreen, don't you?

Does he not see us?

Can he see us?

Send him sunscreen. Tae Sung, say something!

The tteokbokki's here!

Tae Sung!

What?

Tae Sung, look over here. Do you see us?

Will you pick up when we call you?

Okay.

Darn you, Oh Han Byeol.

Was the tteokbokki that tasty?

[Sh**ting Stars]

Ms. Oh. Look at this.

What is this?

They dated in university?

- Is Han Byeol going somewhere? - She has a blind date.

No thanks. From now on,

I won't do anything she says. Tell her that.

They really had a fight.

Gong! Do you really think I sent you to Africa?

Whose fault it is you went to Africa?

You want me to help decide?

- Shall we bet? - Yes, let's.

- Okay. - Deal!

Tae Sung's really not coming.

Why do you think that is?
