NAMES, ORGANIZATIONS AND INCIDENTS
IN THE DRAMA ARE NOT REAL
ALL THE STORIES IN THIS EPISODE
ARE FICTITIOUS CREATIONS
-Who is it?
-It's me.
-What?
-Your shoe size is 9, right?
Yes. Why?
How do you like these?
I guess they're pretty.
Want to buy them?
Where did you get them?
It was so hard to buy it from overseas
since they are limited edition.
But I bought the wrong size.
I'll sell it for the retail price
of 235,000 won just for you.
Just get it exchanged for your size.
It's really hard to get them.
My size is sold out.
These are being resold at higher prices.
Okay. Let me try them on.
They fit well. It's perfect for you.
100,000 won.
Insane. You are insane.
-If you want to negotiate, be reasonable.
-150,000?
Just take them off. Give them back.
Hey! Hold on.
These are limited edition?
Do you have any idea
how much the resale price is?
How much is it?
The conversation is not smooth.
Take them off if you're not buying.
It'll get stinky.
Once it smells, I can't sell them.
-Take them off.
-Hey!
Just wait a moment.
Okay, call. I'll buy them.
I guess you like them, right?
I guess... they're okay.
These are not products to be sold
at such a low price.
Hey, the negotiation is over.
Hey, really. Stop being so clingy.
I'll transfer it right away.
-Just keep them.
-What?
Now that I think about it,
it was your birthday recently.
Just keep them. I'm leaving.
-Hey, Park Jae-hoon.
-What?
You got these for my birthday
but they were delivered late, right?
I told you I bought the wrong size.
Hey! I really like them.
Thank you! Yeah!
EPISODE 11 UNWELCOME GUEST
-Hee-chang.
-Yes?
Grab all the equipment
and return to the Kingdom with the cast.
How about you?
I'll pack the cameras and follow.
I can collect them.
No, it's fine.
We should move the bigger equipment first.
Are you sure you're okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
Producer Gu, please take a raincoat.
It's pouring.
It's fine.
Get moving quickly! Quick!
JAE-HOON AND JI-YEON
JAE-HOON AND JI-YEON
Why is it raining so heavily?
Please wipe yourself with this.
-You do it first.
-It's okay. Wipe yourself.
Thank you.
Is there a hole in the sky?
It's freezing.
Oh no. You must be cold.
Right?
If you're okay with it, I'll...
hug you slightly like this?
You don't have to.
But... it's warm.
I'm a human heater.
Sir! Please turn down the air conditioner!
It's freaking cold.
You're all here, right?
We'll head back to the Kingdom.
-Excuse me, Producer.
-Yes?
Producer Gu Yeo-reum is missing.
Producer Gu will come later
after collecting the mounted cameras.
-By herself?
-Yes.
She'll come by herself
in the production van.
Ji-yeon, I'm really sorry.
Please go back first.
Producer, I've left something behind.
-I'm going back.
-Sorry?
Hey, wait.
Jae-hoon. Jae-hoon!
Gu Yeo-reum!
-Jae-hoon!
-Wait over there.
Hey!
Hey, you...
Oh my. Please wipe yourselves with this.
Thank you.
Thank you for coming back for me today.
Don't get me wrong. I did it as a friend.
There was no other reason.
Yes.
I'm just thanking you as a friend.
Do you...
feel better if you stay behind
when there are other people?
I'm the one in charge.
Without a backup
when it's raining like this.
Even if it's work, it's dangerous.
There wasn't even any streetlight.
It's reckless.
That's why
I have to do it
rather than telling others to.
Wow! Look at the prawn, it's really big!
This is really big.
Everyone worked hard today
so should we have a toast?
-Should we?
-Shall we?
-Thank you for the hard work!
-Thank you!
What did you think about the horror date?
Hwang Jang-g*n was clearly trying
to hit on Soo-mi.
I've always wanted to talk to her.
You were getting overly intimate with her.
You were stuck to Jang Tae-mi as well.
I thought you guys were Siamese twins.
What did you say? Siamese twins?
What does that mean?
Whoa, whoa.
Let's not argue amongst ourselves.
That's right. We're free to speak
to different people with open minds here.
I also agree but he was getting angry.
Relax. Calm down.
What are Siamese twins?
A type of twins.
Those with body parts attached
to each other.
Are you sure? I think he swore at me.
It's not a swear word.
Hey, by the way,
what was with Park Jae-hoon before?
Is there something going on
with Producer Gu Yeo-reum?
I think he went back to pick her up.
It's a bit weird, right?
Did he really have to?
-There?
-Exactly.
Han Ji-yeon's face
didn't look good at all.
You know, they're friends
from high school.
Really? High school friends?
From what I know, Jae-hoon is on the show
because of Producer Gu.
What is it? A friend helping out?
Where did you find out
such important information, John?
I stay close to the production team
so that I might benefit from them.
So that's how I found out.
But if you think about Ji-yeon,
he shouldn't have done that
even for a friend, right?
Exactly!
Did he really have to go there?
You guys don't have female friends?
You're all overreacting.
What's this?
-Why are you siding with him?
-Exactly.
What's going on?
Me?
When?
I'm not the type to side with others.
Hurry up and eat. Why aren't you eating?
Thank you.
Get back inside.
Okay. You should rest too.
Jang Tae-mi!
What a f*cking joke.
Are you okay? Aren't you hurt?
Just a little.
f*ck!
Look at them fooling around like idiots.
The person I want to date is...
JI-WAN'S PICK IS JUNHO
A MAN OF SUCCESS AND SWEET MANNERS
The cast will first enter from here.
Right here!
Please set the camera
making this spot as the center.
The cast is standing by, right?
Yes?
It's a good morning.
Yes.
What brings you to my room?
I'm not a person who cares
about others' businesses.
But it keeps bothering me.
Here.
What's this?
What do you mean "What's this?"
It's the string you broke off yesterday.
People on the Internet call
you two Power Jae-hoon
and "Powerless Ji-yeon." Did you know?
Power Jae-hoon and "Powerless Ji-yeon?"
Jae-hoon is the high one
and Ji-yeon, the lower one.
Han Ji-yeon is being mocked online
just because she likes you more.
I had absolutely no idea about that.
Everyone cut the strings off
after they returned.
But it's a different vibe
when a man cuts them off by himself.
Ladies get hurt, "Power Jae-hoon."
I happened to see it.
Han Ji-yeon was crying a lot. Alone.
I picked that up from the bin.
You can go
and properly cut it again or not.
You can either explain
why you left yesterday or not.
Please film as they leave.
We'll start filming now!
Slate!
One, two, three.
The male cast will be the ones
to request dates today.
Please walk along the female cast
you wish to date as they pass.
Female cast, please move to the stairs!
We'll start picking!
Ahn So-yeon, please make your way!
Park Ji-wan, please make your way!
This is nice.
They look good together.
Jang Tae-mi, please make your way!
Keum Soo-mi, please make your way!
Let's go.
Let's go.
Han Ji-yeon, please make your way!
Ji-yeon.
Do you like macarons?
-Yes.
-I know a place with delicious macarons.
-What should we eat today?
-How about gnocchi?
The one you made was really delicious.
There's no potato today.
-It's hot, right?
-Yes.
The sun is shining from here.
So what's the point of blocking there?
-Soo-mi, right here--
-There are flies here.
I think we've got the big picture.
Right?
We need something unexpected
to make it interesting.
They're not mixing despite
the random dates at the haunted house.
Why is everyone so predictable?
It's boring.
We can do another random date next turn.
That's probably not enough
to shake things up.
Then...
Should we reveal how they were talking
behind each other's back?
Get the staff to furtively do it.
-How about it?
-We already did that in season 1.
We need to bring something new.
Should we make Ahn So-yeon angry?
Let's not touch her.
Why not?
She said in the pre-interview
that she had bipolar disorder treatment
ten years ago.
That's why we picked her,
to cause a havoc.
That's true, but not now.
If we're going to do it,
now seems like a perfect moment.
No way.
Look at her face, it's scary.
Let's not touch her.
Excuse me, Writer.
Yes?
I haven't seen Producer Sang-woo
for a while.
Did something happen?
Actually...
Producer Kim Sang-woo can't come
to the set for a while.
Why is that?
-Is he unwell?
-No.
It's not that.
Actually, to be honest...
SEPTEMBER PRODUCTION COST
PARK JI-WAN
Yes?
Hello, Park Ji-wan. How can I help you?
I'm sorry, Producer.
Sorry? About what? All of a sudden...
I've heard.
Because you were trying to stop
what I said from broadcasting,
you got into a big trouble
and are banned from the site.
I'm really sorry.
You don't have to apologize for anything.
This is my job
and I'm just taking responsibility
for my decision.
Don't be sorry. Ever.
Thank you...
Producer.
Producer Gu Yeo-reum is taking care of you
more than I am.
Because you're a really good person,
she wanted to show the real you
to the viewers.
-So Soo-mi and Hoon-hee...
-Right?
There are three so
maybe a love triangle...
So then...
Shall we go?
We should go.
Should capture it, right?
-Yes, we should proceed like that.
-Okay.
Drink! Drink!
Welcome!
-Give me one Black.
-Okay.
It comes to 4,500 won.
Is this...
fun?
Is a show like this fun?
Sorry?
Is a trash show like this fun?
I'm sorry.
Please go first.
Excuse me, Producer Gu!
Yes?
If you have time, can we talk?
I have something to tell you.
What happened?
Actually...
I wanted to apologize.
For my mistakes in the past.
I'm sorry.
Why, all of a sudden?
In the middle of Ramyeon Chef,
because I was on a show
and people were hyping me up,
I think it all got to my head.
But after spending every day
here with you,
I realized you are a good person.
Highly responsible and also considerate.
I don't have any other motives,
but really, as I said,
I thought I should apologize
from a few days ago.
I also thought that you could possible be
the best one of all my flings.
And that I didn't have a good eye
for people.
What's this? It's making me speechless.
We can at least say hello
from now on, right?
You've been ignoring me.
That's okay.
I guess we can say hello to each other.
Okay.
I'll go first then.
Chef John.
Thanks for saying this.
My pleasure. Yep.
Who is it?
What were you doing?
I was just resting.
I came to check if you were okay.
Oh, right.
I'm okay.
Are you really okay?
You didn't get picked or
go out for a date once.
If it were me,
embarrassment would drive me insane.
I'm...
really okay.
Is there a male cast that you like?
It's okay to have a go at different guys,
since couples haven't been confirmed yet.
You want me to be criticized, right?
You want to make me hit on guys.
Isn't it better than being an accessory?
If it were me,
I'd choose to be villain
rather than a nameless supporter.
It's also okay for you
to continue being invisible.
It's up to you to decide.
Ji-yeon.
Thank you.
Ji-yeon.
I'm sorry for leaving like that yesterday.
It's fine.
You don't have to talk
about yesterday anymore.
There is a camera too.
Okay.
I heard this café is famous.
Thank you.
What do you want to drink?
Huh? Aren't they Power Jae-hoon
and "Powerless Ji-yeon?"
-I think so.
-Right?
Wow, it's unreal.
They have fresh juice as well.
I'll have a cup of warm americano.
Hey, how does this look? It's good, right?
When I went into hiding,
thank you for looking for me.
I didn't get a chance to thank you.
I didn't believe the rumors
about the medical accident.
Why?
It could've been true.
Weirdly,
I wanted to believe you.
There's a saying.
"Liking someone
means believing that person
has a good heart."
Maybe...
I just wanted to believe you.
How did you hurt your hand?
This is from the game before.
Let me have a look.
The wound is quite deep.
It's okay. It'll heal after a while.
No, just wait here.
I'll go to the pharmacy.
I'm really fine!
No, what do you mean fine?
The wound is really open.
Just wait here.
I have something to say!
You won't believe this.
Power Jae-hoon and Powerless Ji-yeon
are dating now.
How is it actually seeing them?
Hey! Powerless Ji-yeon is very submissive.
It's real! For real! Yes!
She must have no pride.
I could never be like that.
You too? Yes.
Come quickly anyway.
Ji-yeon, get up.
-Let's go together.
-Sorry?
I don't want you to wait alone.
Let's go to the pharmacy together.
What's your younger sibling like?
My younger sibling?
Never listens to me at all.
-Really?
-Yes. Are you close with your sister?
Me?
It's been a while since I buried her.
In my mind.
-Why? Why?
-I simply respect her as a human being.
Oh, why?
I was talking to her this morning,
but because she was getting acupuncture,
she hung up after getting annoyed.
"Hang up!"
"Hang up, please. Don't bother me!"
She told me to stop being clingy.
I only called because I was worried.
It might scar.
It's really okay.
You shouldn't scar your hand.
Does it sting?
I can stand it.
Do you normally heal well?
My wound?
It heals well even if I leave it.
I have better regeneration skills
than I look.
Did you know people call us
Power Jae-hoon and Powerless Ji-yeon?
-Yes.
-Does it matter?
But it's true.
Because I like you more, I am powerless.
-Ji-yeon.
-Did you really have to confirm it?
You could pretend like you didn't know.
Because you're saying it bluntly,
because I'm hearing it directly from you,
it actually hurts.
Did you know people call us
Power Jae-hoon and "Powerless Ji-yeon?"
-Yes.
-Does it matter?
But it's true.
I don't like it.
I want you to be the one with power.
Thank you for liking me first.
But from now on,
I'll be the one to like you more.
It's beautiful here, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Try the macaron too. It's really good.
Okay.
-By the way...
-Yes?
What do you like about me, Jun-h*?
Why are you asking me that
all of a sudden?
Once in a while,
I wonder why someone as cool as you
would be so nice to me.
For me, Ji-wan, I think
you're generally...
I like almost everything about you.
Okay.
But I actually...
become upset sometimes because of you.
Why?
Because you don't easily open up to me.
You don't think I'm opening up?
No.
I think you're...
scared of men.
Sorry?
Ji-wan.
I'll be honest with you.
You told me last time.
When you were young...
you were sexually assaulted.
Because of that,
I think you're scared of men
and you can't open up to me.
It's not like that at all.
-It's really not like that.
-But that's how I felt.
If I made you feel bad,
that's...
because I've never dated before...
and I'm not good at expressing myself,
not because of my past...
or trauma from my sexual as*ault.
I've really never once thought...
that you were a bad person.
I understand.
Ji-wan, I must've misunderstood.
I'm sorry.
I'm sincerely sorry.
Hello, it's me.
Something really big just happened here.
What did you say?
Really?
Okay, okay. Hang up now.
Yes, Writer.
Please bring the footage of those two
to the editing room as soon as possible.
-The food is ready.
-Thank you.
-Sure.
-Thank you.
-Please enjoy!
-Thank you!
Yeo-reum!
You didn't tell me you were coming.
I felt like soju out of the blue.
Huh? Have a seat.
Honey, Yeo-reum is here.
Yeo-reum, you're here, here.
Oh my. You want some chicken feet?
-Yes. Make it really spicy.
-Okay!
I'll make them so spicy
that it'll rip your butthole. Let's go!
But what's up with your face?
Did something happen?
It's just that I'm feeling a bit weird.
Feeling weird?
How is it weird?
What is weird?
A wish to have something so spicy
that it'd make my nose runny.
Huh?
Hey, this is an interesting show.
Let's watch this for now.
-Is this show interesting?
-Yes.
Our show will start after this anyway.
Oh! Only ten minutes left
till our show airs live.
-Should I bring some more beer?
-Yes, please.
Ta-da.
Excuse me, Jae-hoon.
Yes?
Can we talk for a bit
before the show begins?
Sure. Now?
Why did you do that before?
Did what?
What you said in front of the cameras.
It was really touching.
But I think it wasn't like you, Jae-hoon.
The words you said
were warmer than the actual temperature.
I didn't want you to hear those things
from other people, Ji-yeon.
To someone as nice as you,
words like "Powerless"
are not suitable at all.
I thought it would be pretty insulting.
As I said before, it's true.
I don't like you as much as you like me,
but at least,
I want to protect you
in front of the cameras.
I don't want you to hear those things
from people you don't know at all.
That's the temperature of my mind now.
-Shall we go back inside?
-Yes.
-Thank you, please come again.
-Thank you.
Thank you, come again!
Ta-da.
Hey, Gu Yeo-reum.
You should've come with Jae-hoon.
Why'd you come alone?
He's in the lodgment now.
It seems like Jae-hoon and Han Ji-yeon
are really hitting it off.
Right, Yeo-reum?
Yes.
It seems like she really likes Jae-hoon.
She's got an eye for people.
Right, Gu Yeo-reum?
Don't do it.
Hey. Don't do it.
Oh! The show is starting!
Our Hye-jin watches it live every week.
She's a true fan of the Kingdom.
Actually, I think Jae-hoon and Ji-yeon
are destined to be together.
Soo-mi, we come out nice too.
-Really?
-Shall we have a drink?
-Yes.
-Let's have a toast.
-Me too.
-Sure.
It's damn scary just thinking
about that again.
I almost peed myself back then.
Hun-hee's becoming more vulgar these days.
You really played ice hockey, right?
I was in the national team.
That surprised me.
I've asked them to edit this out.
Are you okay?
I think you're...
scared of men.
Sorry?
I'll be honest.
You told me last time.
When you were young...
you were sexually assaulted.
Yeo-reum. Was Park Ji-wan really
sexually assaulted when she was young?
Wow, your show is really candid.
Is it okay to share something like that?
Hye-jin. Dae-sik.
I have to get going.
-Okay.
-Sure, go ahead.
That's because I've never dated before...
and I'm not good at expressing myself,
not because of my past...
or trauma from the sexual as*ault.
I've never thought
that you were a bad person, Jun-h*.
Ji-wan!
What should we do?
It's really shocking.
Can things like this even go on air?
Wow.
This is really unreal.
There'll be so many articles.
Ji-wan!
Ji-wan, wait! Ji-wan!
Are you okay, Ji-wan?
I didn't know they would broadcast that.
Because they edited it out last time,
I thought it might be the same this time.
I...
want to be alone for a bit.
-Take me to this address.
-Okay.
CONFESSION OF SEXUAL ABUSE TRAUMA
LOVE OF KINGDOM S2
What are you doing here, Kim Sang-woo?
It's because...
Hee-chang left the company card
at the office.
So I brought it here.
-Just leave it there and go.
-Okay.
Producer Kang Chae-ri.
What?
I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.
After all this?
As the main producer,
you have the right to edit as you wish.
I was out of line.
And the footage is company asset.
I really think it was wrong
to delete the original file.
Sincerely.
-But...
-But?
After watching the show today,
I didn't want to apologize anymore.
Are you making fun of me?
I really tried hard to stop it.
It felt pointless.
-Kim Sang-woo, you can return to the set.
-Sorry?
Let's see what kind of mighty
and amazing show you're trying to make.
Give it a go.
You're so condescending
so I want to see it for myself.
f*ck.
-You can go.
-Okay.
Who are you?
Producer... Producer Kang.
What is it?
f*ck.
Are you the ones
who created this garbage show?
Huh?
Where is the cast?
Where did you hide them?
Sir, I'm not too sure why you're like this
but please calm down--
That knife!
Please put it down.
I'll call the police.
Police? What? Report?
f*ck! Hey, put it down!
Let go! Let go!
Put it down! I said put it down!
You!
Come here! Put it down!
Producer Kang, get out!
Let go of me! Come here!
KINGDOM OF LOVE S2
CONFESSION OF SEXUAL ABUSE?
This is driving me insane.
Sir, I'll get off here.
Jae-hoon...
Give me my life back.
Stay still!
Producer Gu.
Sang-woo, you...
You... are you okay?
What's...
What's this...
Sang-woo...
Didn't I tell you to do
a thorough background check of the cast?
A knife swung at the set?
Did you ever regret coming out
on Kingdom of Love?
-Make a adjustment to end the show early.
-We can't do that.
It was a big blow to the company too.
You knew it too. So why did you air it?
I'll take care of it. In my own ways.
You must've been scared too. Are you okay?
I don't know why it's like this.
I can't control my own mind.
My heart is aching because of you.
