[Theory of Love]

Do you really not like guys?

I don’t like guys.

Then prove it.

You’re expressing that you’re in love with someone.

Like this?

She kissed you

and flirted with you.

You slept with her, didn’t you?

Sandy, don’t be ridiculous.

That woman is of no use in your life at all.

She doesn’t even love you that much.

Almost ten years... what was all of that?

Tell me.

What am I to you?

Where are you going?

It’s late.

How long was I asleep?

You were probably tired, so you fell asleep.

If you’re still sleepy,

you can keep resting.

You can even sleep over.

Wait.

April.

About what happened tonight...

I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to.

Where are you going?

Are you going to see Sandy?

So what are you two then?

She’s my best friend.

Please excuse me. I’m sorry.

Happy birthday to you

Make a wish.

The only wish I have

is to always have Tan in my life, Aoy and Chod.

I hope we always have each other.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Here.

Happy birthday.

I wish you lots of happiness.

And here,

this is your present.

You told me not to get anything expensive,

so I got you these.

Here.

This one is mine,

and this one is yours.

They’re so adorable.

Thank you.

I thought you wouldn’t come this year.

Of course I would.

I have to come.

Sandy.

I'm sorry.

I was a little stressed out.

I went out for a drink and fell asleep.

When I woke up, I came here right away.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay.

I understand.

No wonder you reeked of alcohol the moment you walked in.

Invite me next time.

Eat some more.

No.

Sandy.

About April

and our fight at lunch...

when I didn’t ask you to join our work discussion,

I’m sorry.

I’m also sorry

for being rude to you.

If you were still mad at me

and didn’t come see me like you used to every year,

I would have understood.

Like I said,

I have to come.

I wasn’t mad at you.

Then,

can I ask you for something?

If anything comes up with April,

I want you to be honest with me.

If you have to discuss work,

I want to join you.

I honestly don’t trust this woman.

Well...

you should go to bed. I’ll get going.

Tan.

It’s really late,

and you’ve been drinking.

You should stay over.

I wouldn’t be comfortable

if you were to drive home now.

- I... - Tan.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday.

I wish you lots of happiness.

Tan.

Sandy.

I brought you some clothes.

Thank you.

Tan.

We’ve known each other for ten years now,

and you’ve always treated me

like I’m more than a friend or a sister.

But we’ve never defined

our relationship.

I don’t just want cards expressing your good feelings toward me.

The present I want most from you

is a clear definition of our relationship.

Sandy.

Sandy.

What is it?

I brought you some clothes.

Thank you.

Sandy.

Why couldn’t I reach you?

Are you all right?

Sandy!

- Tan. - Sandy.

What's wrong?

Sandy, what's wrong?

You’re burning up.

Why didn’t you call me? I couldn’t reach you.

I'm sorry, I...

I passed out and didn’t know my phone died.

How about this?

From now on, you need to give me a spare key,

so I can help if something happens.

Okay, Tan.

Take some medicine.

Here's your water.

Thank you.

You're burning up.

You had the medicine, so you’ll be fine.

Thank you, Tan.

Get some rest.

I'll help you.

I’ll sleep outside.

Call me if you need anything.

Okay.

I'm sorry, Sandy.

Are you cold?

Come here.

Are you feeling better?

When I was young and had a fever,

my mom would hold me like this.

I’ll keep you company tonight,

so I can help if you need me to.

Thank you, Tan.

There were many times we had the chance to take things further,

but it never happened, Aoy and Chod.

The nicer he is to me,

the more willing I am to stay stuck in this label-less relationship.

- Tan. - Yes?

Get home safely.

Okay.

Sandy.

I have something to tell you.

I told you that I went drinking and passed out last night,

but actually...

I...

I was at a party at April’s.

I had to go because of work.

I thought it'd be beneficial since there were people from the industry.

And I...

couldn’t say no to her.

I was going to tell you and invite you,

but you were still mad at me. I didn’t know what to say.

So I thought I’d go briefly,

but it was really late when I left.

I'm really sorry, Sandy.

- I'm sorry. - It's okay.

I understand.

About April’s photoshoot,

I think it’s a good opportunity for us.

But if you disagree, I’ll tell her that I refuse...

I’m fine with it.

If you say

this gig is good for our future,

I’ll help you.

I’ll help you the best I can.

Thank you.

Thank you for understanding.

I'll get going.

Bye.

[April]

[April]

The person you should be paying attention to

is me.

Look at the guests here.

That’s the future waiting for you.

Don’t waste your time.

A talented photographer like you

belongs with a well‑connected model

like me.

Why wait for someone who doesn’t deserve you?

[April]

Good morning.

Yes, April.

I saw your missed call.

I was worried and wanted to make sure you got home fine.

But you probably went to bed, so you turned your phone off.

I didn’t want to bother you.

You would’ve called me once you woke up.

I...

April, I want to talk to you about last night.

It's fine.

Don’t overthink it. It’s nothing.

I understand if you’re not ready to commit.

If you were, you'd be in a relationship by now.

I’m fine with you not being in a rush.

Let me remind you.

I’m making it clear that I like you.

I...

I’ll wait for you to confirm the date for the photoshoot.

Okay.

I want to see you as early as possible too.

See you soon.

Okay.

Good.

Keep going, April.

Beautiful.

Great, keep that pose.

Okay, that's beautiful. Keep that pose.

Do I look beautiful, Tanwa?

Yes.

Good.

Just like that.

Let me get a close-up.

Don't move.

Beautiful. Look down.

That's it.

Two more shots.

One.

Okay.

One.

- I'm sorry. - Be careful.

Are you all right?

I'm fine, but that was close. Thank you.

You should move back a little.

- Okay. - It's dangerous.

- I think we got it. - Okay.

- Should we check the photos? - Sure.

Could you please help me?

Don't worry. I'll take care of you.

- Please. - Thank you.

But don't bother.

I already discussed the details with the other client.

Since you wanted more details,

I asked them to recheck everything one more time.

I’ll finalize with them and see you at the other set.

Thank you. I’ll head there now.

Sure.

Let’s move to the other set, everyone.

Here.

- Give the thumb drive to Tan. - Sure.

Okay.

Don’t you want to check the photos, April?

Sure.

Please wait outside for this set.

Okay.

Are we ready?

Yes.

I’ve asked everyone to wait outside.

When you’re ready,

get into the tub and then take off the robe.

April.

What are you doing?

Tan.

Sandy.

I...

I thought you might need help.

April would probably feel more comfortable

with another woman in the room.

Shall we start?

- Let's start. - Okay.

One, two.

Good.

Great.

You can lift your leg up.

You seem

to know Tanwa really well.

Have you known each other for decades?

That's right.

I thought you two were a couple,

but Tanwa denied it.

The longer a woman waits, the fewer chances she gets.

The older she is,

the harder it is to find a man.

Good.

I'm sorry. Let me fix this.

Tan.

April.

What was that for?

I didn’t mean to. It was an accident.

I’m sorry I got you wet.

It’s okay.

You can take a shower in my bathroom.

I can ask my housekeeper to do your laundry.

Your clothes are in the car.

Why don’t you get them and go change?

It's fine. I'll do it.

Hey, April!

April.

What are you doing?

Why are you surprised?

I just wanted to help, so you’d finish showering faster.

That’s enough, April. Don’t do this.

I’m begging you. Please don’t do this. Let me go.

Please.

Are you sure?

That’s enough. Stop it.

Are you all right, Tan?

- What is it? - Nothing.

I came to get the clothes from you.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Tan, you can tell she did that on purpose, right?

It doesn’t matter what her intentions are.

I’m asking you.

After we’re done with this, can you not work with her anymore?

If not, I’ll no longer work with you.

You should go change.

I was just joking around. It wasn't a big deal.

Pack everything, Mod. Don't forget to send me the files.

Excuse me.

Are you leaving?

I wanted to thank you.

I really liked the photos from today.

Thank you. I’ll send you the photos for you to select.

Okay.

Stay and have dinner.

You too, Sandy.

It’s okay. I have plans. I’ll get going then.

Let's go.

Tanwa.

Stay and have dinner with me.

I wanted to thank you

for today’s photoshoot

and apologize for the inconvenience.

Sandy.

Tanwa.

I just wanted to ask you

if you really see a future with her.

She seems so young.

She doesn’t understand what love means to adults.

I don’t want you to waste your time.

The longer you wait,

the more time you waste.

I'm sorry, but I have to go. Thank you.

[Tan]

What’s wrong? Why didn’t you answer my calls?

Please give me my key back.

From now on, you no longer have the right to come here whenever.

What's going on?

Why are you mad at me? I don’t get it.

We’ve known each other for so long, yet you still don’t understand me?

What's the matter?

Wait, what's going on?

We shouldn’t see each other anymore.

I don’t want to waste any more time.

What’s going on? What’s the matter with you?

Good question.

What am I to you?

For almost ten years, who am I to you?

Why...

Why did you let some woman you’ve just met

do whatever she wants to you?

I warned you, but you wouldn’t listen.

Do you like her?

Is that why you made me wait on my birthday?

You wouldn’t tell me where you were or what you were doing.

Is there more that I don’t know?

Have you ever cared about my feelings?

Of course I have.

Then when are you going to tell me what I am to you?

Everything I’ve done is obvious.

That’s not enough.

What do you want me to do?

What do you want me to say? You’ve never said anything.

I also don’t know how you feel.

Why don’t you say it?

Why don’t you just say it? Just say it!

You’re an important person to me.

That’s all?

No other words besides what you’ve written in your birthday cards,

New Year's or Valentine’s cards that you’ve given me?

Is there anything more than the beautiful words on these cards?

Ten years is far too long.

I can’t wait any longer.

Sandy.

I’ve always wanted to do that,

and I know you wanted it too.

I know that

we’re more than just friends.

You feel the same way, don’t you?

It took us a long time

to get here.

And...

right now...

what are we?

I’ll get it for you.

[April]

Hello, Tanwa.

What are you doing?

He’s at my place.

We’re doing something personal.

Why are you answering his phone?

I asked Sandy to answer.

What is it, April?

I just wanted to let you know that my birthday’s coming up

once the photo book is done.

I wanted to throw a party at home to launch the photo book

and invite you as the photographer.

Would that be okay for you?

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday.

You're fabulous.

Bottoms up. Come on.

Hurry up.

Make a wish.

Nice.

Woo!

I wish you happiness.

Enjoy, I'll be right back.

Tan.

Are you having fun?

I'm okay.

Happy birthday.

Is everything okay?

- Yes. - What?

Yes.

Tan.

I keep hearing people compliment you.

They say your work is fabulous.

- Are you happy? - Really?

- Of course. - I'm happy.

I'm so proud of you.

I’ve always known you’re talented.

I saw your potential back in school.

I believe

that you will be very successful,

just like you’ve always hoped to be.

Thank you.

Sandy.

Excuse me.

Tanwa, do you have some time?

Yes.

Berm from Vogue Magazine wants to talk to you.

Really?

Let’s go, Sandy.

I wanted to ask you something, Sandy.

It’ll take less than two minutes.

- Follow me then. - Sure.

Thank you.

Hello.

Sandy, I want the polaroid.

It’s in my bedroom. Can you get it for me?

I’m sure others are free too.

They’re all wasted. I don’t want them in my room.

Could you please help me?

I don’t just let anyone in.

Only people I trust,

or those who’ve already been in.

Please.

I don’t just let anyone in.

Only people I trust,

or those who’ve already been in.

Please take care of Tanwa.

He’s a professional.

Thank you so much.

What are these?

Don’t hold someone back when you don’t love them that much,

because everyone wants clarity.

We’re close.

I just borrowed something from you.

Do you like

the new toy I sent you?

Thank you for inviting me, April.

Tanwa is my toy.

I don’t mind sharing him with others.

How could you do this to me?

The only one who can build a future for you is me.

Why are you being so unprofessional?

Unprofessional?

We’re not a couple, Sandy.

If you walk away, then we'll no longer see each other.

Cut.

That's it.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

All right.

It's so cold.

What did you say?

Cut.

See?

It's like this.

Have dinner with me.

You would make headlines.
