The sign…

The sign…

The sign…

There will be certain signs
that only we can perceive.

Happy birthday, my mystic heir.

Mom!

Congratulations, sweetheart.
You're the next heir!

It's time!

No!

It's not my birthday yet, right?

Hello?

Grandma called.

Here.

Hello, Ms. Jomkwan.

Why are you still awake this late?

Hello, Danthai.

No, Grandma.

It's Rin, not Danthai.

Hello, Grandma.

Oh? Then whose voice was that?

Is that your boyfriend, Rin?

Grandma, no.

That was Danthai, my cousin.

Right.

The heir to our family's mystical lineage?

Like anyone actually wants that.

Huh? What?

You think being the family mystic
means an easy life? Huh? Right?

Being the family mystic
means an easy life?

Not a chance.

But you must become one.

You must become one!

You must become one!

Once you come of age and are chosen,
that's what you'll become.

That's how it is.

Grandma, it's time for your medicine.

Nurse.

Please cut Ms. Jomkwan's Internet.
Otherwise, she'll never go to bed tonight.

Sleep well. Bye.

Love you, sweetheart.

- Love you, Ms. Jomkwan.
- Love you, Ms. Jomkwan.

I'm sorry, man.

It was an emergency.
I had to use your bathroom to poop.

What's wrong? Why do you look like that?

My birthday isn't today, right?

Are you okay?

And this is Rin,

a second-year Fine Arts student,
majoring in painting.

He's the star of the Fine Arts Faculty

who's been winning drawing competitions
since elementary school.

You could say he's perfect in every way.

Good looks, talent,

and to top it off, he's got two equally
fabulous best friends, like us two!

OHM, BESTIE NUMBER 1

JINNIE, BESTIE NUMBER 2

And here's the second-year Fine Arts g*ng.

Basically, we're top-notch,

but as if that wasn't enough,

Rin's perfect boyfriend is Krit,
the Business Faculty's Moon.

Seriously, how can one person have it all?

I'm so envious!

I'm so talented! Awesome.

Hey!

Are you done editing yet?

We're going to be late.
We'll have Prof. James next.

He'll roast us alive.

Yes. It's done.

It's your fault anyway.
You don't upload clips often.

- Huh?
- I have to film you and edit your clips.

I'm just protecting your follower count.
What's wrong with that?

So somehow that's my fault?

Crap!

I forgot my EE pencil sharpener.

See? You're forgetful.

You're always forgetting something,
literally everything.

- Serves you right.
- You never stop nagging.

Relax. I brought an extra.

Thanks a lot, Rin.

Now that's what I call a real friend.

And you're the worst!

Let's go already.

Oh, wait…

I forgot my carbon eraser.

See? And you're always nagging me.

I'm allowed to forget stuff too.

- Like you've never forgotten anything.
- There you go again.

- You--
- Here.

I brought an extra for you too.

Thanks, buddy.

They don't call him
"Perfect Rin" for nothing.

Mom, how could you know it was time
to become the next mystic heir?

The sign…

There will be certain signs
that only we can perceive.

What are you looking for?

A guitar sound. Do you guys hear it?

- No.
- No.

The sign…

Congratulations, sweetheart.

You're the next heir!

It's time!

The sign…

The sign…

There will be certain signs
that only we can perceive.

Okay, class dismissed.

See you next session.

- Thanks, Professor!
- Thank you.

Bye. Bye, guys.

- Damn, I was so tense.
- Yeah, very much.

Here.

Thank you.

Rin, my bestie.

Thanks, bro.

Anytime.

So you're really not eating with us today?

I really can't.

I made plans to meet Krit
in front of the faculty ages ago.

Next time, okay?

Look at you,
all clingy with your boyfriend.

That's annoying!

Well, at least I have
a boyfriend to cling to.

Did you really have to rub that in?

Jinnie, that's not showing off.
I'm actually seeing someone too.

We just haven't made
our status official yet.

Everyone in this group is taken,
except you.

And how do you know I'm single?

I just don't tell nosy people like you!

Sure. I'll do my best to believe it.

My class is almost done. See you.

See you.

I'm off. See you later.

Yes, see you.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Yo, bae!

Huh?

Hey!

How much was your coffee?
I'll pay you back.

Did you forget something?

What?

I mistook you for someone else
and spilled your coffee.

So let me pay for it.

Come on, show me your QR code.
I'll transfer it.

Hey.

"Yo, bae!"

Seriously? Do you think I'm a joke to you?

Who raised you? Mocking people like that?

Hold on. I'm not done talking.

Do you have any manners?

Hey, where do you think you're going?

No one's ever ignored me like this.

Guess I'm your first.

You… You!

Come back here!
I'm not done yelling at you!

Where are you going?

Hey!

Rin, have you been waiting long?

The professor kept me after class.

Why do you look like that?

I'm hungry.

So that guy's really your friend?

Yes. Same year.

We're not close, though.

I don't think
you should get involved with him.

Why? We don't need to be scared of him.

People in the faculty say he's trouble.

He's already bad enough today.
He could act worse?

They say he's kind of weird too.

I heard he caused another fight recently.

Like beating people up?

They say Khobfa snatched a girl's bag

and tried to extort her.

Hand me the bag!

No! Give it back! Let go!

What are you doing? Ow!

He's seriously the worst.

Whoever dates him is cursed for life.

Krit, promise me you'll never get involved
with that thug. Got it?

I don't usually talk to him anyway.

Good.

Well…

I forgot.

You said you wanted to tell me
something today.

Yes.

Well, I…

I…

You?

I think…

What?

I think…

What?

Rin! Krit!

Can we take pictures with you?
We're so happy to meet you in person.

- Thank you.
- Thanks.

I'm exhausted.

That afternoon class k*lled me.

Three straight hours
of standing there painting!

I'm done.

Guys. Let's film a story.

No way.

Look at my face.
I look half-dead and sleepy.

Rin, my buddy.

Help me out here, okay?

People keep DMing me
asking why you don't post often.

I just don't care much about this stuff.

If I post all the time,
it's not cool anymore.

Damn.

That's freaking fab.

What? Move.

Hello! Fit check!

Today's look is casual streetwear,
looking comfy and colorful.

This oversized tee pairs well with jeans,

while accessories
complete the streetwear look.

- Hey.
- Damn.

Who's that, Jinnie?

Mochi, a Communication Arts student.

He's blowing up right now.

Everything he touches
turns into a viral hit.

He's got 300,000 Instagram followers.

He's landed over a hundred review deals.

sh*t. That's insane.

Rin.

Didn't he go to the same school
as Krit and you?

Do you know him?

Well, I used to.

But we're not really close anymore.

Yes, but damn, the editing's really good.

He has so many followers.

Promise we'll stay friends forever.

Never break the group's rules.

- No dating within the group. Ever.
- No dating within the group. Ever.

Deal?

Deal.

- Yay!
- Yay!

Krit asked me out after we graduated.

I didn't break our promise.

Where is Krit?

He doesn't know I'm taking this class.

I'm here to surprise him.

Yes, sir.

Sure, sure.

I heard he caused another fight recently.

Khobfa snatched a girl's bag
and tried to extort her.

What the hell?

He's here.

Huh?

He totally walked right past you.

While you're glowing this much.

What are you waiting for? Go say hi.

- Go on.
- Hurry up.

Okay, welcome, everyone,

to this semester's course,
Natural Plants and Environment!

Okay.

Let's take a look at the course handout

and see what we'll be studying
this semester.

Okay.

This is the handout.

It corresponds with
the research over there.

Take a look at the research.

Are you seeing what I'm seeing?

I am. Rin, do you see it?

It's nothing. They know each other.

They went to the same school.

Wow. You're so generous.

How cool.

When Mochi steals your boyfriend,
I'm going to laugh my head off.

See that? You're starting to overthink.

There's no way those two would date.

Believe that if you want.

Hey, guys, my birthday's coming up.
What theme should we do?

How about a fancy costume?

Yes.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

Mom.

Happy birthday, my mystic heir.

Congratulations, sweetheart.
You're the next heir!

It's time!

No!

Stop!

If becoming a mystic means being
unlucky in love like Grandma and you,

then I don't want it.

No!

No.

No, no, no.

I don't want this.

Dan.

Are you using my bathroom again?

You have your own bathroom.
Why don't you use it?

It was an emergency.

Come on.

Here you are.

What notebook is this?

Your mom sent it to you.

I'm sorry.
I was curious, so I opened it first.

You little…

Watch it, you!

Hello, Ms. Daran.

Where are you?
Why are you so hard to reach?

I'm on a pilgrimage in Morocco.

Happy birthday, sweetheart.

Hey, do you like the gift I sent you?

Try opening to page 77
in case you want to have a little fun.

"How to curse someone with bad luck."

What is this, Mom?
What kind of gift is this?

You're whining that much.
You must love it, right?

Listen, sweetie.
I might be hard to contact for a while.

I'm going somewhere with very poor signal.

But I hope you'll enjoy
the gift I gave you.

Mom? Hello?

No way. I'm not playing with this.
I have nothing to do with this.

HOW TO CURSE SOMEONE WITH BAD LUCK

YOU MUST USE AN ITEM
BELONGING TO THAT PERSON

Hey, no! I'm not inheriting anything.

Go away.

Are you coming yet? I'm ready.

Hey.

HOW TO CURSE SOMEONE WITH BAD LUCK

Don't look at me like that.
I told you. I'm not inheriting this.

I'm here.

Wow, you look handsome.

You asked me to come early.

Are you planning a surprise for me?

Where is it? Is there one?

Well…

I want to--

Hey, is this for me?

Wow.

It's so cute. Thank you.

Rin, what are you doing?

Our friends will be here soon. Sit down.

They probably prepared
to film some content.

They're always expecting, you know.
Last year, you gave me so many gifts.

So this year, everyone expects even more.

That's why I prepared all of these things.

Here.

Now they won't tease you.

Let's take a picture.

Come on. Look at your face.

You don't want to be
on camera again, is that it?

Yes.

That's okay.
Just put your hand in the shot.

A little closer.

Oh?

Did you forget to write me
a birthday card?

It's fine. I'll write it myself.

What should I write?

Here.

Do you remember who said this to me?

LET'S STAY TOGETHER FOR A LONG TIME

Who?

Huh?

You did, Krit. Don't you remember?

Done.

And your pen writes really well.

I'm keeping it, okay?

Let's part ways.

What?

I don't think I can do this anymore.

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday
- Happy birthday

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday
- Happy birthday

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

- Blow out the candles.
- Blow out the candles.

Happy birthday.

Hope you keep doing amazing.

Wow, Krit.

This year's bouquet
is way bigger than last year's.

True.

The whole party is huge
and super cute. Right?

- Totally.
- Totally.

As expected
of the Fine Arts Faculty's son-in-law.

Anything to say to my friend?

Say it!

- Say it!
- Say it!

- Say it!
- Say it!

- Say it!
- Say it!

- Say it!
- Say it!

I'll leave now.

What?

Asking to break up
at my friend's birthday party?

He's such a jerk, right?

Seriously.

I'm so confused right now.

Get me his number.

I'll call him and curse him out right now.

No. Don't.

I'll handle it myself.

You keep playing the nice guy!

He broke up with you at your own party.

Go yell at him.

- Go curse him out.
- No.

I don't want to know anything anymore.

Shut up already.

Your mouth, seriously.

Rin, it's okay.

You still have us.

Open your eyes and look at this!

Look!

Are we dealing with him or what?

If it were me,
I'd already be yelling at him.

So?

Hey, where are you going?

You guys drink first.

That's my friend.

Go curse him out!

Get your revenge!

Rin, be careful.

Hello, everyone.
We're sorry for going live late today.

We actually have good news to share.
You probably already know, right?

Well, we…

We have been dating for two months now.

"Where would you go after this?"

Where do you want to go, babe?

Where should the two of us go?
Comment below.

Hello? Rin, where are you?

I just came outside for some air.

I'll be back in a bit.

All right, okay.

Hey.

Found a target.

Hey. Where are you going?

- Where are you going? Let's talk first.
- Where are you going?

- What's the rush?
- I'm going home. Let go of me!

- Let's see what you've got.
- You assholes! Don't touch me!

- What are you even wearing?
- You just had to make this difficult, huh?

- Hey!
- Ouch!

Let's go!

Khobfa.

Yes. It's me.

Are you okay?

Of course.

I have to be.

You're so drunk.
I think you should go home.

I'm the stupid one.

I misunderstood you.

I thought you were a bad guy.
I thought you were evil.

I thought you were a scumbag.
I thought you were scary.

Want me to take you home?
You can't go back alone like this.

For all the shitty things

I've said to you before…

I'm sorry.

I've just had…

one hell of a bad day today.

Use mine for now.

No.

That's your personal thing.

Now that's more like
the top Fine Arts student I know.

Come on. I'll take you home.

Damn, he broke up with me on my birthday.

How could he do that? That as*h*le.

He's such a jerk! What a piece of sh*t!

He even said we could still be friends!
Yeah, right. Screw that!

as*h*le! Damn it!

Sit still.

If someone betrayed you,
what would you do?

I probably wouldn't do anything.
Just let it go.

It's my birthday. Why?

It was supposed to be a good day,
but it turned into an unlucky one.

I can't untie it.

Come here. I'll do it.

Your handkerchief is all dirty now.

I'll wash it for you.

Hey.

I'll wash it myself.

You don't have to.

Thanks, man.

Hey!

Happy birthday.

Don't cry, Rin.

What?

Didn't I throw this away?

If someone betrayed you,
what would you do?

I probably wouldn't do anything.
Just let it go.

You keep forgiving people.
When are you ever going to get revenge?

Try opening to page 77
in case you want to have a little fun.

"How to curse someone with bad luck."

"You must use an item
belonging to that person."

And your pen writes really well.

I'm keeping it, okay?

You keep forgiving people.
When are you ever going to get revenge?

Rin, let's part ways.

- Yay!
- I don't think I can do this anymore.

Get your revenge!

We have been dating for two months now.

A presto amora!

What the hell is this?

Hello?

Finally, you picked up. I was so worried.

Where did you disappear to last night?

I went home.

Where are you guys?

We're in our Plant Studies elective.
Did you forget already?

Rin, get here now.

Krit and Mochi are here.
Something huge happened.

sh*t!

Hey.

They made it to the university KOL round.

They even have to film content together.

Rin, you have to do something.
I won't let this slide.

They're looking at you.

Rin.

Can we clear things up?

Actually, I told you
I wanted to break up a long time ago,

but you just wouldn't listen.

When? I'm so confused right now.

If you really cared about me that much,

you would've known a long time ago, right?

What? How is this my fault now?

Krit, I'm seriously asking.
Why does it have to be Mochi?

If it had been someone else,
maybe it would've hurt less.

You know Mochi and I were--

Were what, bestie?

No.

Ex-besties, actually.

So you're doing this to get back at me?

If you're saying that,

it means you knew all along.

You knew you betrayed me when you broke
our rule about no dating within the group.

I didn't break the rule.

We made it in high school.

Krit asked me out after we graduated.

Enough, Rin.

I only came here to clear this up. Okay?

It's not okay.
Who the hell would be okay with this?

Of course.

You're the type who always has to win.
You can't stand losing, can you?

- Me?
- Yes, you.

Then how about this?

This semester, let's compete. You and I.
We'll compete through activities.

Whoever has more followers
by the end of the semester wins.

What the hell? What does that
even have to do with anything?

Why? Are you scared?

Who's scared?
Follower count? That's nothing.

Watch me, little Mochi.

I'll show you who the real top dog is.

Thanks…

for pretending to be my boyfriend.

Actually, I've told Rin many times,

but he always had an excuse for himself.

Why did you decide to do this?

When I'm with Rin,

I feel smaller.

I just…

wanted to get out of that feeling.

So you chose to play the red flag
and take all the blame?

The person who breaks up first
always looks worse anyway, right?

This way, Rin can meet someone better.

Hey, Khobfa!

I'm sorry.

You almost got unlucky again.

Thanks.

Wait.

Why do you have this pen?

This pen?

Well, it's mine.

That's it.

So this pen isn't yours?

No. It's Khobfa's.

I borrowed it and forgot to return it.

All good now, right?

Give it back.

Oh, I'm sorry!

Damn it.

sh*t!

Am I really the mystic heir?

If this spellbook is real,

then there has to be a way to undo it.

"If the curse is not broken
before the cursed person's birthday,

that person will meet their end."

I'm screwed!

Give me Khobfa's contact details.

The number you have dialed
cannot be reached at the moment.

Hey. Someone's hurt?

Who's hurt?

- Go check. Quick.
- Khobfa.

Hurry up.

Huh?

- Hey, who's hurt?
- Is he hurt?

- Is he okay?
- I bet this is serious.

- Hey, listen up!
- Watch out!

Rin!

Are you okay?

You're still alive.

What if I accidentally
used a curse from the spellbook

to bring someone bad luck,
but I don't know how to undo it?

What should I do, Mom?

I believe everything has a way out.

You just haven't found it yet, Rin.

Give it to me. I'll help you.

You're actually pretty cute.

But you complain a little too much.

Since when did you two get so close?

Khobfa.

Thanks.

It's been a long time since anyone

paid attention
to the little things about me.

Yes! Finally!

I hope your bad luck is finally over.
