She Was Pretty (2015): Season 1, Episode 16 - Episode #1.16 - full transcript
My dream is to become a fairy tale writer.
I'd like to give people
a chance to imagine
that they're the leading character
in their own adventure
by becoming a fairy tale writer.
When you're young, people often ask you
what your dream is.
But as you get older,
less people ask you about your dreams.
The world makes it hard
for adults to keep their dreams.
Reality creates distance
between you and your dream
and it gradually becomes insignificant.
Suddenly, you find that
you've forgotten about it
altogether.
THE STORY OF PATJUI
But before I completely forgot
about the dream...
If you're interested, why not join us?
As an adult, I was lucky to have someone
ask me about my dreams again.
What are we going to do without you?
It's too sad.
-It is, isn't it?
-Yes.
Hye-jin, take care of yourself.
I'm going to miss you.
Be well, Hye-jin.
Bye.
Thanks for everything.
-Goodbye.
-See you.
Good luck.
-Let's go eat.
-I'm hungry.
I know a great place.
Let's get married, Sung-joon.
What?
I even prepared our rings.
This one is mine. Give me your hand.
This one is yours.
I'm proposing to you right now.
But instead of right now--
You want a year to yourself, right?
I'll come by often.
I'll come by often too.
You've got to give it
all you've got, okay?
I'm going to try really hard.
And so, I stayed here
in order to dream again.
Right?
What about this?
Right here.
Hello, everyone!
I'm here.
My gosh.
-Hye-jin.
-It's nice to meet you.
-Hye-jin, welcome!
-Welcome.
It's great to have you here.
-Am I not the youngest anymore?
-Gosh.
How can we make
Cha-dol's journey more exciting?
Instead of simply carrying around
that wish box,
why not have him ride around on it?
-Maybe it could fly.
-That sounds fun.
It would make the story more dynamic,
and we'd be able to expand
the scope of the journey.
That's a great idea.
If a box like that existed,
I'd buy it right away.
Why don't we think of an incantation?
I like that!
What kind of spell should we use?
Ppyorong?
Yes, are you working?
It's so nice over here.
The other writers are all fond of me
and I love discussing
the layout of the story with them.
What about you? How are things there?
Well, I'm on my way
to another meeting right now.
I can't handle
all the job offers I've been getting.
Nice!
Kim Hye-jin, I'm hungry. Hurry up!
Gosh.
Oh, my bad.
I couldn't find the sesame oil.
Shall we eat?
-Thank you for the meal.
-Thank you for the meal.
Wow, is that bibimbap?
It looks good.
Let me try some.
That's really good.
Sung-joon.
What?
I... think you've gone crazy.
Right?
I miss you so much that I've lost my mind.
We won't be reunited
for another 11 months.
-This sucks!
-This sucks!
Did the meeting last until this late?
Yes.
What about you?
Are you getting ready for work?
Yes, but there was a snowstorm,
so I'm expecting a lot of traffic.
Is it snowing over there too?
Hello?
Hye-jin?
Sleep tight.
I really miss her.
Everyone's probably busy writing articles.
It's nice to see their names!
Customer number 140.
Yes.
-Good day!
-How are you?
1, 10, 100, 1,000,
10,000, 100,000, a million!
I'm ready to give this to him now.
NEW HAPPY LIFE CREDIT CARD
Yes, Hye-jin.
Were you asleep? You sound sleepy.
No.
Why are you coughing?
Did you catch another cold?
Have you taken medication?
It's not that bad.
I'm sure I'll get over it.
It might not get better.
I bet your fridge is empty
and you're not eating properly.
If you're not going to cook,
buy something to eat,
and don't forget to eat fruits.
I should be there looking after you.
I told you that it's not serious.
Still, I want you to take medication
and get some rest.
Yes. I'll talk to you again soon.
Hello?
Really?
Are you here?
Yes, I'll be right there.
Hye-jin, where are you going?
I have a visitor.
I'll catch you later!
Ha-ri!
Hey, you startled me!
My gosh!
Don't you think you're studying too hard?
Don't stop me.
I'm shooting for a scholarship.
When have I ever stopped you?
I hope you get it.
So what brings you here?
Don't your classes end late today?
One was canceled, so I came to see you.
Really?
Give me a second.
Hey, I told you not to call me.
I love you, Ha-ri.
Are you kidding me?
If you call me ever again, you'll be dead.
Kids these days are strange.
They just don't listen.
Who is he?
Just some college boy
who's following me around.
He's 22.
A 22-year-old?
Hey, I see the perks of
being a graduate student.
I bet you're having
a great time at school.
Hey, be quiet. Let's go eat.
You are my woman, you are my woman
Stop it.
You're mine now
-No matter what you say
-Stop it.
That's enough.
-You'll see me as a man
-I said stop it!
Let's go.
Aren't you getting another straight perm?
It's back to its curly state.
Oh, my hair.
It's grown back since I've been here.
I'm going to leave it as it is.
I guess it's more fitting for you
in a place like this.
Right.
I guess you really love it here.
Why?
You seem relaxed.
You should've
followed your passion sooner.
If it hadn't been for The Most,
I wouldn't have gotten this chance.
What do you mean?
I met Ms. Lee through The Most's interview
and she gave me a chance
to live out my dream.
I think I've finally found
the place where I belong.
Why?
I'm happy for you and very proud.
It's true.
What is?
How could you disappear
without saying goodbye?
How could you do this?
And why...
Why didn't you leave me a message?
That's why I came in person.
Do you know how worried everyone is?
Where are you staying?
Have you been eating well?
Are you really okay?
You shouldn't have done this to yourself.
Mr. Ji might get mad if it's too often,
so just think of me
every time you see pickled radish.
It really reminds me of him.
What does?
It's nothing.
I was suddenly reminded of
the lunatic reporter.
Oh, Mr. Suite 2024?
I hope he's doing well.
With his personality, he'd do fine
even if he were stranded alone
on a deserted island.
I guess you're right.
Make sure you drive safely.
Yes, I'll call you when I get there.
SUNG-JOON
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
His phone's turned off.
He never shuts his phone off.
Maybe it needs recharging.
CALLING SUNG-JOON
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
What's going on?
He was feeling sick. Maybe he
fell asleep after taking his medication.
Why can't I get a hold of you?
Are you asleep?
Did your cold get worse?
Why hasn't he answered me back?
SUNG-JOON
What's going on?
The device you have reached
is currently shut off.
Please leave a message after the beep.
It's raining quite a bit.
I know.
It looks like it'll rain all day long.
Hye-jin?
Hye-jin?
Yes?
Gosh, I've made a mess.
Why are you so lost in thought?
What's the matter?
No, it's nothing.
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
What's wrong with his phone?
I never had a hard time reaching him.
Did something happen to him?
No, I'm sure he's fine.
He's just busy, that's all.
Hye-jin.
Hye-jin?
Hye-jin!
Yes?
You've been out of it all day long.
Is something bothering you?
No.
Can you stop by
the Illustration Team's office?
I hear that their drawings are ready.
Sure thing.
-I'll be right back.
-Okay.
Where are you going?
-What?
-The door is that way.
Oh, I'll be right back.
I think she's having a hard time
getting a hold of her boyfriend.
She was staring at her phone all day long.
I know. She's been talking to him daily.
Long distance relationships aren't easy.
Things get tough after a while.
Good day, Ms. Kim.
You too.
What's going on here?
I hope nothing's happened to him.
Right. What could possibly go wrong?
Maybe his cold's gotten worse.
What if he's burning with a fever?
What if he passes out
and no one's nearby to check on him?
Stop making up stories, Kim Hye-jin!
He's just busy, that's all.
Or maybe he was driving at night
when he was caught in a rain storm
being reminded of his past again!
Stop being delusional, Kim Hye-jin!
Sung-joon overcame his trauma already.
My gosh. It's ringing!
Yes, Hye-jin.
What's the matter with you?
Are you okay?
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
Is everything all right?
Is everything okay? Are you ill?
I don't think so.
Then why didn't you pick up?
Do you have any idea
how worried I was about you?
I like your pink sweater.
It looks good on you.
Yes, I bought it not too long ago.
What?
How did you know
I was wearing a pink sweater?
I couldn't pick up
because I was on my way to see you.
Sung-joon!
Wait, the rain!
You'll get wet!
Sung-joon!
Have you been well?
I was so worried about you!
You should've told me you were coming.
You weren't answering your phone,
so I was getting all sorts of ideas!
I just wanted to surprise you.
I missed you.
That's it? You just missed me?
I nearly died of yearning.
Let me take a look at you.
I think I can breathe again.
But how did you come here all of a sudden?
I thought I would die of lovesickness,
so I had to come.
My gosh.
You must be writing a lot.
I was seriously asking.
Are you on vacation?
No. I'm here for good.
I've taken care of my house,
my car, and my job.
What?
I thought I could do it,
but I couldn't be away from you
for an entire year.
I can't afford to be parted from you.
Hey!
I thought I'd be a man and wait for you,
but I'm not as mature as I thought I was.
I couldn't do it.
I'm going to stay with you
until you're done with your project.
Then...
what about your work?
Well...
You'll have to provide for me.
-Me?
-Yes.
Wait.
First, I'll have to cut down
on my living expenses.
What are you doing?
Wait.
If I'm to take care of you now,
I'll need to calculate some things.
What else should I cut down on?
Seriously?
Can't you tell I'm joking with you?
You know I'm a capable guy.
I've already found a place to stay
and a new job.
Already?
Where?
My dears, let me introduce to you.
He's arrived as my replacement.
Meet your new chief editor!
How do you do?
My name is Ji Sung-joon
and I'll be your new chief editor
as of today.
He's so handsome.
Are you back for good from the States?
Yes. I'm back.
Welcome back!
Chief Editor Ji.
-Welcome back!
-Welcome back!
Wait.
What will happen to Chief Editor Kim then?
Me?
My aunt is getting married.
-What?
-What?
Really?
I feel so embarrassed.
Well, it's true.
With whom and when?
Well...
Ra-ra.
Do you remember Dario?
The Italian model we booked
for our photo shoot last time?
Yes.
That's who she's marrying.
He's 15 years younger than her.
-Nonsense!
-No way!
He thinks my auntie is
the most beautiful woman he's ever seen.
You're making me dizzy.
Ra-ra.
My goddess!
O sole mio!
Oh, my love!
Wait!
I think I've twisted my back!
Oh, no! Ra-ra!
Oh, this looks new.
I'll take two of these.
Sure.
Here.
They gave me a diary for free.
You can have it.
Really?
It's pretty.
Thanks.
Ms. Kim really shocked everyone,
didn't she?
I know, right?
I envy her.
You do?
Of course I do.
What's going on with us?
Are we going to...
-Are we going to what?
-So you and I, are we going to...
You and I?
Are we going to get married?
Of course we will.
Really? When?
Well...
-This year?
-This year.
Jun-u.
I honestly couldn't be happier.
Jun-u...
I'm even happier than you are.
Jun-u, where should we have our wedding?
Where do you want to have it?
-Let's just find someplace cheap...
-No.
There's no need for a photographer either.
That's a waste of money.
Ha-ri, you'll learn to love me too.
Ha-ri, I love you!
What?
I'm okay!
Right, you're off to your parents'.
Yes. I'll spend the night there
and be back early tomorrow morning.
Today is a really important day for me.
What's the occasion?
Today,
I get to keep a promise I made to myself.
I'm here!
What are you doing here?
What brings you here, my daughter?
I just missed my mom and dad.
And I wanted to see
my pretty little sister.
You'd better let go
while I'm asking you nicely.
You're so adorable!
What about Dad?
It looks like he closed up early today.
He's gone to the sauna to take a bath.
Gosh, that's refreshing.
There he is now.
Dad, I'm here!
I've never been to a public bathhouse,
but it was great.
We should go again sometime.
Sure.
What are you doing here?
Oh, hi there.
Did you seriously just say that?
So the place you're staying
until you sign a house
was my parents' place?
Hey!
What's your problem with Sung-joon?
We told him to keep this from you.
What? Why? Why would you do that?
Because you always nag us
about giving him a hard time.
When did I ever?
-You do that all the time.
-You do it every day!
-It's all right.
-Nonsense.
We don't need gifts
between family members!
Of course not. We're family.
What do you mean he's family?
Also, why invite a busy man to stay?
Thanks for coming.
Since you're here, stay for dinner.
You should eat even if you're busy.
He can't. He's really busy!
Have some bulgogi.
Don't forget to chew.
Give him some space for crying out loud.
You should be in it too. Come here.
Of course. We're not leaving you out.
Stop calling him your son-in-law!
Still, you should've told me.
I have a habit of listening to my elders.
-Thank you.
-It's sweet.
Dad, here you go.
BANKBOOK
What's this?
I wanted to save up money
so that you could buy a new printer,
but it took me longer
since I had to switch jobs.
Take it.
No, this isn't necessary.
I can just fix the equipment
if it breaks down.
He's right.
We can't accept this
when we haven't done anything for you.
Keep it for when you need it.
Yes. Spend it on your wedding.
No, it's quite all right.
Hye-jin doesn't need to spend
a single penny when she marries me.
You don't even have to bring any cutlery.
I only need you.
Please take it.
This has been my goal.
It'll make me happy if you accept this.
Please take it, Dad.
Please accept it.
Why? Do you need something?
No.
You're pretty, Kim Hye-jin.
-Let me help you.
-It's okay.
I want to help.
Wait. What's this?
I feel like we're newlyweds.
Hey!
Sung-joon!
You don't need to drop me off.
You should've just gone to work.
I can drop you off
and then head to the office.
What's this?
We couldn't even pay for your schooling.
Your dad says you'll need money
when you're married,
so he's been saving up
for the last ten years.
It's finally time to give this to you.
Thank you and we're sorry.
We love you, Daughter.
BANKBOOK
Are you crying?
Why are you crying?
Why are you giving this to me?
You should've used it
to replace your printer sooner.
I'm so glad I'm going to be
a part of your family.
Goodness.
Are you crying?
Good morning.
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
-Good morning.
DEPUTY CHIEF EDITOR, CHA JU-YEONG
Mr. Ji.
Mr. Ji!
You entered the wrong office again.
You're right. I've done it again.
Old habits die hard. I'm sorry,
Deputy Chief Editor Cha.
Well, your jacket...
This is why everyone
calls you Clumsy Joon now.
Oh, my!
What's wrong with this chair?
The wheel came off, so I need to fix it.
Do we have a hammer?
A hammer?
I don't think we do.
Poong-ho, let me borrow this.
Are you going to polish it?
-Okay.
-Okay.
-Flip it over.
-What are you doing?
Here we go.
I'm the VP around here.
Give me the respect I deserve!
I'm the son of the chairman.
Just hammer it in harder.
-You really are hammering it hard.
-There.
-Thanks for this.
-Sure.
-But sir,
-Yes?
was Ten really a part of this team?
Sure he was!
What kind of person was he?
He looks so cool in pictures!
She thinks that lunatic Shin-hyuk is cool.
Shouldn't we be laughing
in unison right now?
But I'm really curious.
I wonder how he's doing now.
Exactly.
I'm curious too.
He's completely off the grid.
Ever since that day,
he hasn't updated his social media.
That lunatic will always
survive somewhere.
But I admit that I miss him
and his expressions.
We have a meeting in ten minutes.
-Yes, Ms. Cha.
-Sure.
Well, do I look good?
I guess. You look like a thimble.
How much is it?
It's 10,000 won.
-You heard him.
-What?
This is your present to me.
Thanks, I'll treasure it.
-Have a good evening.
-Wait, but...
It works every time.
Where should I go next?
Author Kim?
Author Kim.
Author Kim Hye-jin?
Oh, hello.
-Didn't you hear me calling your name?
-Pardon?
I didn't know you were calling for me.
Since the illustrations are complete,
we should have another meeting.
Will you visit our team
with the other authors?
Yes, I'll let them know.
Sure. I'll see you soon, Author Kim.
Yes, I'll see you soon.
Author Kim?
-Number 180, Min Ha-ri?
-Yes.
You're older than the average applicant,
but you lack any significant experience.
Yes.
Didn't you work at the Ara Hotel?
Excuse me?
I worked for the Ara Hotel until last year
and I recall seeing you around.
Am I right?
Yes, that's right.
Then why didn't you list it
as prior work experience?
Because I didn't get that job on my own.
It's finally out!
-Yes!
-Finally!
-Wow.
-Wow.
Great work, everyone!
-It's been a long, hard year!
-I know, right?
-Great work, everyone!
-Good work!
-Hye-jin!
-My gosh.
-Just look at this.
-Oh, my.
-Thanks for your hard work!
-Goodness.
My gosh.
Look at the colors. Isn't it great?
I like the colors
they've used at the printers.
THE TALE OF THE HIDDEN GIRL
Now, for a few days...
I never realized
there was a person in the corner before.
You found her.
That girl is hiding.
Hiding?
She really does look like she's hiding.
It's like finding her
in a hidden picture puzzle.
A hidden picture puzzle?
Look. You can't see her
unless you look closely.
Just like a hidden picture puzzle.
You're right.
It really is like a hidden picture puzzle.
THE TALE OF THE HIDDEN GIRL
CHANGJAK WRITERS' GROUP
AUTHORS: LEE MI-EUN, KIM HYE-RANG,
KIM YI-JIN, YOO LIM-SUN, KIM HYE-JIN
Were you all trying to
lower our standards for this issue?
There he goes again.
I want us to start over from square one.
Please take your work more seriously.
I knew he wouldn't like it.
Excuse me, Mr. Ji.
That's not your office.
Should we go ahead and change offices?
That's not necessary.
He can't even find his own office.
Wait, please accept one of these.
-What's this?
-What is it?
-What's this?
-Thanks.
-Place it right there.
-Yes.
What is it?
Here you go.
Well...
-I'm getting married.
-What?
Did you meet someone overnight?
Married?
If you have the time,
please come by and congratulate us.
SUNG-JOON AND HYE-JIN ARE GETTING MARRIED.
Hye...
Jackson is...
Is this the same Kim Hye-jin we know?
This is the same Hye-jin
that we know, isn't she?
-When did the two of them hit it off?
-What?
-No way.
-When did this happen?
I thought Hye-jin and Shin-hyuk...
Oh, my.
Why couldn't they make
a better invitation letter?
This is so not Most-esque.
Wifey, come out.
We have someplace to go.
Where could we possibly
need to go right now?
Let's go someplace nice for the last time,
just the two of us.
The last time?
You're getting married tomorrow.
We need to celebrate.
Ta-da!
Congratulations on your wedding, wifey!
Hold on. Would someone have a problem
with me calling you that now?
To wish you a great marriage,
I put together something really nice.
Thanks, Ha-ri. You're the best.
There's one more thing
I've got to tell you.
What?
Ta-da!
CONGRATULATIONS MIN HA-RI
WELCOME TO Q HOTEL
Then you're...
Congratulations!
Congratulations, Ha-ri!
This is great!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
-Yes!
-Yes!
For Kim Hye-jin's happy marriage!
And for Min Ha-ri's successful career
as a hotelier!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Bottoms up!
This is so pretty.
What's taking Ha-ri so long?
-Ta-da!
-What's this?
There's more.
Ta-da!
I wanted to make the bouquet
and flower crown for your wedding.
I took a class in order to learn
how to make this.
It's not perfect,
but I really wanted to make it for you.
Ha-ri...
When did you find the time to...
Thanks.
Hey.
No tears allowed today!
I'm not going to cry either.
All right.
I won't cry.
Promise me that
you'll be happy, all right?
I hope you'll be really happy.
Okay?
Yes, I'll be happy.
Even though you're married,
you must be there for me
if I need a shoulder to cry on, all right?
Hye-jin, you're so pretty.
All right. I'm taking the picture!
One, two, three!
One more.
One, two, three!
Ha-ri, come here. Let's take one together.
Wait.
-Hurry!
-Good.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
I'm so nervous.
Shall we?
Yes.
Hye-jin, where are the nail clippers?
Look in the second drawer.
Hold on.
Yes, this is Kim Hye-jin
from the Changjak Writers' Group.
Yes, Artist Choi hasn't sent us
the illustrations yet.
Sure thing.
It's not there.
Did you look carefully?
Yes.
-It's not there.
-It should be.
It's not.
Can you find it later
and trim my nails for me?
Sure.
Give me a kiss.
What's going on here?
Kim Hye-jin, you've changed.
Weren't you a kissing maniac before?
My deadline is today.
I'll make it up to you later.
I'm married, but I'm still lonely.
I'm so lonely.
I'm so very lonely.
I've closed my laptop!
Hey, where are you taking me?
Hey!
The wheel on my suitcase is broken
and I'd like to have it fixed.
Where can I fix it?
Are you the guest in room 701?
Yes, I am.
I've noticed that it was damaged
and I already had it fixed for you.
Is that so?
I'm so thankful.
Thank you very much.
Don't mention it.
Please enjoy the rest of your vacation.
Yes. Thank you.
TEN'S LATEST NOVEL,
THE SELF-TITLED TEN ON SALE NOW
I definitely look better in person.
FOR MY BEST FRIEND JACKSON
FOR MY BEST FRIEND JACKSON
I cancel what I said before.
What?
I want to cancel what I said
about not being friends with you.
I've thought about it
and we truly are friends.
Really good friends for that matter.
Right?
Jackson, where do you live?
Let go! I can make it home myself.
-Stop pushing me!
-I didn't push you.
I told you not to push me!
I didn't push you.
You crazy drunk. Green light.
Hold on. Have you been
comparing me to your dog?
A dog that barks?
Yes. Why?
I thought she was your sister!
Yes, my little sister.
She was a part of the family.
You didn't think she was human, did you?
You had the wrong idea.
You were completely mistaken.
You jerk!
You made a fool out of me!
Come here!
What's the matter?
I never said she's human.
You want to get bitten by a woman
that looks like a dog?
Coco never bit anyone! Don't bite me!
Jackson!
Mr. Kim!
Want a taste?
Mr. Kim, are you back at the magazine?
Maybe?
Come on, Jackson.
Wait.
I forgot the sesame seeds.
They'll know we're in love
even without any.
-All right.
-Good.
-Let's go before we hit traffic.
-Sure.
There we go.
-Slowly.
-All done?
-We'll clean this later.
-Okay.
-Let's go.
-Let's go!
ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY PICNIC!
One day, a thought crossed my mind.
I wondered if lead characters only exist
in movies and dramas.
Maybe in life too,
people are distinguished as
either a lead or a supporting character.
Let's leave this instant
-Yayayaya
-Yayayaya
You're so tone-deaf.
You're helpless.
Give it time. My voice will grow on you.
Let's leave this instant
Yayayaya, shocking, shocking
I love you
Rock and roll
Peace!
What's wrong with you?
Are you having fun?
However, now I've realized something.
Maybe I was the one who held myself back
and considered myself
only as a supporting character.
Write a page about it.
It can be a feature,
or about fashion, or beauty.
Use your discretion.
Gosh, I can't.
I'm not confident
and surely not ready for that yet.
So just try writing it for now.
About two pages will do.
No.
I really can't.
Grounded by reality,
I tended to give up easily.
I wonder if I was the one
who turned off my own spotlight.
People say that life is not a fairy tale.
It's so cute.
But sometimes, like a child or a fool,
maybe we should dream of a world
that only exist in fairy tales.
-Let's enjoy.
-Let's enjoy.
What?
Why?
My molar.
I think my tooth just cracked.
Stop playing around!
This is so good. Try some.
Try it.
How is it?
It's good.
-Is it good?
-It's good!
If we don't turn off our own spotlights,
if we never give up on our dreams,
we may be able to create
our very own fairy tales.
For example...
"Ddol-ddol's family gathered
to celebrate his return.
There was a bright red mailbox
in front of Sook-hui's house.
And at a very young age, Sook-hui..."
Hey!
Maybe you end up with your first love
when they say
it never happens in real life
or you play out the childhood dreams
that you had forgotten.
Miracles like that
might actually come your way.
Hand!
It's go time!
Let's go.
Yeon-woo!
Let's hurry home. Your mom's waiting.
Subtitle translation by Hyelim Park
I'd like to give people
a chance to imagine
that they're the leading character
in their own adventure
by becoming a fairy tale writer.
When you're young, people often ask you
what your dream is.
But as you get older,
less people ask you about your dreams.
The world makes it hard
for adults to keep their dreams.
Reality creates distance
between you and your dream
and it gradually becomes insignificant.
Suddenly, you find that
you've forgotten about it
altogether.
THE STORY OF PATJUI
But before I completely forgot
about the dream...
If you're interested, why not join us?
As an adult, I was lucky to have someone
ask me about my dreams again.
What are we going to do without you?
It's too sad.
-It is, isn't it?
-Yes.
Hye-jin, take care of yourself.
I'm going to miss you.
Be well, Hye-jin.
Bye.
Thanks for everything.
-Goodbye.
-See you.
Good luck.
-Let's go eat.
-I'm hungry.
I know a great place.
Let's get married, Sung-joon.
What?
I even prepared our rings.
This one is mine. Give me your hand.
This one is yours.
I'm proposing to you right now.
But instead of right now--
You want a year to yourself, right?
I'll come by often.
I'll come by often too.
You've got to give it
all you've got, okay?
I'm going to try really hard.
And so, I stayed here
in order to dream again.
Right?
What about this?
Right here.
Hello, everyone!
I'm here.
My gosh.
-Hye-jin.
-It's nice to meet you.
-Hye-jin, welcome!
-Welcome.
It's great to have you here.
-Am I not the youngest anymore?
-Gosh.
How can we make
Cha-dol's journey more exciting?
Instead of simply carrying around
that wish box,
why not have him ride around on it?
-Maybe it could fly.
-That sounds fun.
It would make the story more dynamic,
and we'd be able to expand
the scope of the journey.
That's a great idea.
If a box like that existed,
I'd buy it right away.
Why don't we think of an incantation?
I like that!
What kind of spell should we use?
Ppyorong?
Yes, are you working?
It's so nice over here.
The other writers are all fond of me
and I love discussing
the layout of the story with them.
What about you? How are things there?
Well, I'm on my way
to another meeting right now.
I can't handle
all the job offers I've been getting.
Nice!
Kim Hye-jin, I'm hungry. Hurry up!
Gosh.
Oh, my bad.
I couldn't find the sesame oil.
Shall we eat?
-Thank you for the meal.
-Thank you for the meal.
Wow, is that bibimbap?
It looks good.
Let me try some.
That's really good.
Sung-joon.
What?
I... think you've gone crazy.
Right?
I miss you so much that I've lost my mind.
We won't be reunited
for another 11 months.
-This sucks!
-This sucks!
Did the meeting last until this late?
Yes.
What about you?
Are you getting ready for work?
Yes, but there was a snowstorm,
so I'm expecting a lot of traffic.
Is it snowing over there too?
Hello?
Hye-jin?
Sleep tight.
I really miss her.
Everyone's probably busy writing articles.
It's nice to see their names!
Customer number 140.
Yes.
-Good day!
-How are you?
1, 10, 100, 1,000,
10,000, 100,000, a million!
I'm ready to give this to him now.
NEW HAPPY LIFE CREDIT CARD
Yes, Hye-jin.
Were you asleep? You sound sleepy.
No.
Why are you coughing?
Did you catch another cold?
Have you taken medication?
It's not that bad.
I'm sure I'll get over it.
It might not get better.
I bet your fridge is empty
and you're not eating properly.
If you're not going to cook,
buy something to eat,
and don't forget to eat fruits.
I should be there looking after you.
I told you that it's not serious.
Still, I want you to take medication
and get some rest.
Yes. I'll talk to you again soon.
Hello?
Really?
Are you here?
Yes, I'll be right there.
Hye-jin, where are you going?
I have a visitor.
I'll catch you later!
Ha-ri!
Hey, you startled me!
My gosh!
Don't you think you're studying too hard?
Don't stop me.
I'm shooting for a scholarship.
When have I ever stopped you?
I hope you get it.
So what brings you here?
Don't your classes end late today?
One was canceled, so I came to see you.
Really?
Give me a second.
Hey, I told you not to call me.
I love you, Ha-ri.
Are you kidding me?
If you call me ever again, you'll be dead.
Kids these days are strange.
They just don't listen.
Who is he?
Just some college boy
who's following me around.
He's 22.
A 22-year-old?
Hey, I see the perks of
being a graduate student.
I bet you're having
a great time at school.
Hey, be quiet. Let's go eat.
You are my woman, you are my woman
Stop it.
You're mine now
-No matter what you say
-Stop it.
That's enough.
-You'll see me as a man
-I said stop it!
Let's go.
Aren't you getting another straight perm?
It's back to its curly state.
Oh, my hair.
It's grown back since I've been here.
I'm going to leave it as it is.
I guess it's more fitting for you
in a place like this.
Right.
I guess you really love it here.
Why?
You seem relaxed.
You should've
followed your passion sooner.
If it hadn't been for The Most,
I wouldn't have gotten this chance.
What do you mean?
I met Ms. Lee through The Most's interview
and she gave me a chance
to live out my dream.
I think I've finally found
the place where I belong.
Why?
I'm happy for you and very proud.
It's true.
What is?
How could you disappear
without saying goodbye?
How could you do this?
And why...
Why didn't you leave me a message?
That's why I came in person.
Do you know how worried everyone is?
Where are you staying?
Have you been eating well?
Are you really okay?
You shouldn't have done this to yourself.
Mr. Ji might get mad if it's too often,
so just think of me
every time you see pickled radish.
It really reminds me of him.
What does?
It's nothing.
I was suddenly reminded of
the lunatic reporter.
Oh, Mr. Suite 2024?
I hope he's doing well.
With his personality, he'd do fine
even if he were stranded alone
on a deserted island.
I guess you're right.
Make sure you drive safely.
Yes, I'll call you when I get there.
SUNG-JOON
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
His phone's turned off.
He never shuts his phone off.
Maybe it needs recharging.
CALLING SUNG-JOON
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
What's going on?
He was feeling sick. Maybe he
fell asleep after taking his medication.
Why can't I get a hold of you?
Are you asleep?
Did your cold get worse?
Why hasn't he answered me back?
SUNG-JOON
What's going on?
The device you have reached
is currently shut off.
Please leave a message after the beep.
It's raining quite a bit.
I know.
It looks like it'll rain all day long.
Hye-jin?
Hye-jin?
Yes?
Gosh, I've made a mess.
Why are you so lost in thought?
What's the matter?
No, it's nothing.
The device you have reached
is currently shut off...
What's wrong with his phone?
I never had a hard time reaching him.
Did something happen to him?
No, I'm sure he's fine.
He's just busy, that's all.
Hye-jin.
Hye-jin?
Hye-jin!
Yes?
You've been out of it all day long.
Is something bothering you?
No.
Can you stop by
the Illustration Team's office?
I hear that their drawings are ready.
Sure thing.
-I'll be right back.
-Okay.
Where are you going?
-What?
-The door is that way.
Oh, I'll be right back.
I think she's having a hard time
getting a hold of her boyfriend.
She was staring at her phone all day long.
I know. She's been talking to him daily.
Long distance relationships aren't easy.
Things get tough after a while.
Good day, Ms. Kim.
You too.
What's going on here?
I hope nothing's happened to him.
Right. What could possibly go wrong?
Maybe his cold's gotten worse.
What if he's burning with a fever?
What if he passes out
and no one's nearby to check on him?
Stop making up stories, Kim Hye-jin!
He's just busy, that's all.
Or maybe he was driving at night
when he was caught in a rain storm
being reminded of his past again!
Stop being delusional, Kim Hye-jin!
Sung-joon overcame his trauma already.
My gosh. It's ringing!
Yes, Hye-jin.
What's the matter with you?
Are you okay?
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
Is everything all right?
Is everything okay? Are you ill?
I don't think so.
Then why didn't you pick up?
Do you have any idea
how worried I was about you?
I like your pink sweater.
It looks good on you.
Yes, I bought it not too long ago.
What?
How did you know
I was wearing a pink sweater?
I couldn't pick up
because I was on my way to see you.
Sung-joon!
Wait, the rain!
You'll get wet!
Sung-joon!
Have you been well?
I was so worried about you!
You should've told me you were coming.
You weren't answering your phone,
so I was getting all sorts of ideas!
I just wanted to surprise you.
I missed you.
That's it? You just missed me?
I nearly died of yearning.
Let me take a look at you.
I think I can breathe again.
But how did you come here all of a sudden?
I thought I would die of lovesickness,
so I had to come.
My gosh.
You must be writing a lot.
I was seriously asking.
Are you on vacation?
No. I'm here for good.
I've taken care of my house,
my car, and my job.
What?
I thought I could do it,
but I couldn't be away from you
for an entire year.
I can't afford to be parted from you.
Hey!
I thought I'd be a man and wait for you,
but I'm not as mature as I thought I was.
I couldn't do it.
I'm going to stay with you
until you're done with your project.
Then...
what about your work?
Well...
You'll have to provide for me.
-Me?
-Yes.
Wait.
First, I'll have to cut down
on my living expenses.
What are you doing?
Wait.
If I'm to take care of you now,
I'll need to calculate some things.
What else should I cut down on?
Seriously?
Can't you tell I'm joking with you?
You know I'm a capable guy.
I've already found a place to stay
and a new job.
Already?
Where?
My dears, let me introduce to you.
He's arrived as my replacement.
Meet your new chief editor!
How do you do?
My name is Ji Sung-joon
and I'll be your new chief editor
as of today.
He's so handsome.
Are you back for good from the States?
Yes. I'm back.
Welcome back!
Chief Editor Ji.
-Welcome back!
-Welcome back!
Wait.
What will happen to Chief Editor Kim then?
Me?
My aunt is getting married.
-What?
-What?
Really?
I feel so embarrassed.
Well, it's true.
With whom and when?
Well...
Ra-ra.
Do you remember Dario?
The Italian model we booked
for our photo shoot last time?
Yes.
That's who she's marrying.
He's 15 years younger than her.
-Nonsense!
-No way!
He thinks my auntie is
the most beautiful woman he's ever seen.
You're making me dizzy.
Ra-ra.
My goddess!
O sole mio!
Oh, my love!
Wait!
I think I've twisted my back!
Oh, no! Ra-ra!
Oh, this looks new.
I'll take two of these.
Sure.
Here.
They gave me a diary for free.
You can have it.
Really?
It's pretty.
Thanks.
Ms. Kim really shocked everyone,
didn't she?
I know, right?
I envy her.
You do?
Of course I do.
What's going on with us?
Are we going to...
-Are we going to what?
-So you and I, are we going to...
You and I?
Are we going to get married?
Of course we will.
Really? When?
Well...
-This year?
-This year.
Jun-u.
I honestly couldn't be happier.
Jun-u...
I'm even happier than you are.
Jun-u, where should we have our wedding?
Where do you want to have it?
-Let's just find someplace cheap...
-No.
There's no need for a photographer either.
That's a waste of money.
Ha-ri, you'll learn to love me too.
Ha-ri, I love you!
What?
I'm okay!
Right, you're off to your parents'.
Yes. I'll spend the night there
and be back early tomorrow morning.
Today is a really important day for me.
What's the occasion?
Today,
I get to keep a promise I made to myself.
I'm here!
What are you doing here?
What brings you here, my daughter?
I just missed my mom and dad.
And I wanted to see
my pretty little sister.
You'd better let go
while I'm asking you nicely.
You're so adorable!
What about Dad?
It looks like he closed up early today.
He's gone to the sauna to take a bath.
Gosh, that's refreshing.
There he is now.
Dad, I'm here!
I've never been to a public bathhouse,
but it was great.
We should go again sometime.
Sure.
What are you doing here?
Oh, hi there.
Did you seriously just say that?
So the place you're staying
until you sign a house
was my parents' place?
Hey!
What's your problem with Sung-joon?
We told him to keep this from you.
What? Why? Why would you do that?
Because you always nag us
about giving him a hard time.
When did I ever?
-You do that all the time.
-You do it every day!
-It's all right.
-Nonsense.
We don't need gifts
between family members!
Of course not. We're family.
What do you mean he's family?
Also, why invite a busy man to stay?
Thanks for coming.
Since you're here, stay for dinner.
You should eat even if you're busy.
He can't. He's really busy!
Have some bulgogi.
Don't forget to chew.
Give him some space for crying out loud.
You should be in it too. Come here.
Of course. We're not leaving you out.
Stop calling him your son-in-law!
Still, you should've told me.
I have a habit of listening to my elders.
-Thank you.
-It's sweet.
Dad, here you go.
BANKBOOK
What's this?
I wanted to save up money
so that you could buy a new printer,
but it took me longer
since I had to switch jobs.
Take it.
No, this isn't necessary.
I can just fix the equipment
if it breaks down.
He's right.
We can't accept this
when we haven't done anything for you.
Keep it for when you need it.
Yes. Spend it on your wedding.
No, it's quite all right.
Hye-jin doesn't need to spend
a single penny when she marries me.
You don't even have to bring any cutlery.
I only need you.
Please take it.
This has been my goal.
It'll make me happy if you accept this.
Please take it, Dad.
Please accept it.
Why? Do you need something?
No.
You're pretty, Kim Hye-jin.
-Let me help you.
-It's okay.
I want to help.
Wait. What's this?
I feel like we're newlyweds.
Hey!
Sung-joon!
You don't need to drop me off.
You should've just gone to work.
I can drop you off
and then head to the office.
What's this?
We couldn't even pay for your schooling.
Your dad says you'll need money
when you're married,
so he's been saving up
for the last ten years.
It's finally time to give this to you.
Thank you and we're sorry.
We love you, Daughter.
BANKBOOK
Are you crying?
Why are you crying?
Why are you giving this to me?
You should've used it
to replace your printer sooner.
I'm so glad I'm going to be
a part of your family.
Goodness.
Are you crying?
Good morning.
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
-Good morning.
DEPUTY CHIEF EDITOR, CHA JU-YEONG
Mr. Ji.
Mr. Ji!
You entered the wrong office again.
You're right. I've done it again.
Old habits die hard. I'm sorry,
Deputy Chief Editor Cha.
Well, your jacket...
This is why everyone
calls you Clumsy Joon now.
Oh, my!
What's wrong with this chair?
The wheel came off, so I need to fix it.
Do we have a hammer?
A hammer?
I don't think we do.
Poong-ho, let me borrow this.
Are you going to polish it?
-Okay.
-Okay.
-Flip it over.
-What are you doing?
Here we go.
I'm the VP around here.
Give me the respect I deserve!
I'm the son of the chairman.
Just hammer it in harder.
-You really are hammering it hard.
-There.
-Thanks for this.
-Sure.
-But sir,
-Yes?
was Ten really a part of this team?
Sure he was!
What kind of person was he?
He looks so cool in pictures!
She thinks that lunatic Shin-hyuk is cool.
Shouldn't we be laughing
in unison right now?
But I'm really curious.
I wonder how he's doing now.
Exactly.
I'm curious too.
He's completely off the grid.
Ever since that day,
he hasn't updated his social media.
That lunatic will always
survive somewhere.
But I admit that I miss him
and his expressions.
We have a meeting in ten minutes.
-Yes, Ms. Cha.
-Sure.
Well, do I look good?
I guess. You look like a thimble.
How much is it?
It's 10,000 won.
-You heard him.
-What?
This is your present to me.
Thanks, I'll treasure it.
-Have a good evening.
-Wait, but...
It works every time.
Where should I go next?
Author Kim?
Author Kim.
Author Kim Hye-jin?
Oh, hello.
-Didn't you hear me calling your name?
-Pardon?
I didn't know you were calling for me.
Since the illustrations are complete,
we should have another meeting.
Will you visit our team
with the other authors?
Yes, I'll let them know.
Sure. I'll see you soon, Author Kim.
Yes, I'll see you soon.
Author Kim?
-Number 180, Min Ha-ri?
-Yes.
You're older than the average applicant,
but you lack any significant experience.
Yes.
Didn't you work at the Ara Hotel?
Excuse me?
I worked for the Ara Hotel until last year
and I recall seeing you around.
Am I right?
Yes, that's right.
Then why didn't you list it
as prior work experience?
Because I didn't get that job on my own.
It's finally out!
-Yes!
-Finally!
-Wow.
-Wow.
Great work, everyone!
-It's been a long, hard year!
-I know, right?
-Great work, everyone!
-Good work!
-Hye-jin!
-My gosh.
-Just look at this.
-Oh, my.
-Thanks for your hard work!
-Goodness.
My gosh.
Look at the colors. Isn't it great?
I like the colors
they've used at the printers.
THE TALE OF THE HIDDEN GIRL
Now, for a few days...
I never realized
there was a person in the corner before.
You found her.
That girl is hiding.
Hiding?
She really does look like she's hiding.
It's like finding her
in a hidden picture puzzle.
A hidden picture puzzle?
Look. You can't see her
unless you look closely.
Just like a hidden picture puzzle.
You're right.
It really is like a hidden picture puzzle.
THE TALE OF THE HIDDEN GIRL
CHANGJAK WRITERS' GROUP
AUTHORS: LEE MI-EUN, KIM HYE-RANG,
KIM YI-JIN, YOO LIM-SUN, KIM HYE-JIN
Were you all trying to
lower our standards for this issue?
There he goes again.
I want us to start over from square one.
Please take your work more seriously.
I knew he wouldn't like it.
Excuse me, Mr. Ji.
That's not your office.
Should we go ahead and change offices?
That's not necessary.
He can't even find his own office.
Wait, please accept one of these.
-What's this?
-What is it?
-What's this?
-Thanks.
-Place it right there.
-Yes.
What is it?
Here you go.
Well...
-I'm getting married.
-What?
Did you meet someone overnight?
Married?
If you have the time,
please come by and congratulate us.
SUNG-JOON AND HYE-JIN ARE GETTING MARRIED.
Hye...
Jackson is...
Is this the same Kim Hye-jin we know?
This is the same Hye-jin
that we know, isn't she?
-When did the two of them hit it off?
-What?
-No way.
-When did this happen?
I thought Hye-jin and Shin-hyuk...
Oh, my.
Why couldn't they make
a better invitation letter?
This is so not Most-esque.
Wifey, come out.
We have someplace to go.
Where could we possibly
need to go right now?
Let's go someplace nice for the last time,
just the two of us.
The last time?
You're getting married tomorrow.
We need to celebrate.
Ta-da!
Congratulations on your wedding, wifey!
Hold on. Would someone have a problem
with me calling you that now?
To wish you a great marriage,
I put together something really nice.
Thanks, Ha-ri. You're the best.
There's one more thing
I've got to tell you.
What?
Ta-da!
CONGRATULATIONS MIN HA-RI
WELCOME TO Q HOTEL
Then you're...
Congratulations!
Congratulations, Ha-ri!
This is great!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
-Yes!
-Yes!
For Kim Hye-jin's happy marriage!
And for Min Ha-ri's successful career
as a hotelier!
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Bottoms up!
This is so pretty.
What's taking Ha-ri so long?
-Ta-da!
-What's this?
There's more.
Ta-da!
I wanted to make the bouquet
and flower crown for your wedding.
I took a class in order to learn
how to make this.
It's not perfect,
but I really wanted to make it for you.
Ha-ri...
When did you find the time to...
Thanks.
Hey.
No tears allowed today!
I'm not going to cry either.
All right.
I won't cry.
Promise me that
you'll be happy, all right?
I hope you'll be really happy.
Okay?
Yes, I'll be happy.
Even though you're married,
you must be there for me
if I need a shoulder to cry on, all right?
Hye-jin, you're so pretty.
All right. I'm taking the picture!
One, two, three!
One more.
One, two, three!
Ha-ri, come here. Let's take one together.
Wait.
-Hurry!
-Good.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
I'm so nervous.
Shall we?
Yes.
Hye-jin, where are the nail clippers?
Look in the second drawer.
Hold on.
Yes, this is Kim Hye-jin
from the Changjak Writers' Group.
Yes, Artist Choi hasn't sent us
the illustrations yet.
Sure thing.
It's not there.
Did you look carefully?
Yes.
-It's not there.
-It should be.
It's not.
Can you find it later
and trim my nails for me?
Sure.
Give me a kiss.
What's going on here?
Kim Hye-jin, you've changed.
Weren't you a kissing maniac before?
My deadline is today.
I'll make it up to you later.
I'm married, but I'm still lonely.
I'm so lonely.
I'm so very lonely.
I've closed my laptop!
Hey, where are you taking me?
Hey!
The wheel on my suitcase is broken
and I'd like to have it fixed.
Where can I fix it?
Are you the guest in room 701?
Yes, I am.
I've noticed that it was damaged
and I already had it fixed for you.
Is that so?
I'm so thankful.
Thank you very much.
Don't mention it.
Please enjoy the rest of your vacation.
Yes. Thank you.
TEN'S LATEST NOVEL,
THE SELF-TITLED TEN ON SALE NOW
I definitely look better in person.
FOR MY BEST FRIEND JACKSON
FOR MY BEST FRIEND JACKSON
I cancel what I said before.
What?
I want to cancel what I said
about not being friends with you.
I've thought about it
and we truly are friends.
Really good friends for that matter.
Right?
Jackson, where do you live?
Let go! I can make it home myself.
-Stop pushing me!
-I didn't push you.
I told you not to push me!
I didn't push you.
You crazy drunk. Green light.
Hold on. Have you been
comparing me to your dog?
A dog that barks?
Yes. Why?
I thought she was your sister!
Yes, my little sister.
She was a part of the family.
You didn't think she was human, did you?
You had the wrong idea.
You were completely mistaken.
You jerk!
You made a fool out of me!
Come here!
What's the matter?
I never said she's human.
You want to get bitten by a woman
that looks like a dog?
Coco never bit anyone! Don't bite me!
Jackson!
Mr. Kim!
Want a taste?
Mr. Kim, are you back at the magazine?
Maybe?
Come on, Jackson.
Wait.
I forgot the sesame seeds.
They'll know we're in love
even without any.
-All right.
-Good.
-Let's go before we hit traffic.
-Sure.
There we go.
-Slowly.
-All done?
-We'll clean this later.
-Okay.
-Let's go.
-Let's go!
ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY PICNIC!
One day, a thought crossed my mind.
I wondered if lead characters only exist
in movies and dramas.
Maybe in life too,
people are distinguished as
either a lead or a supporting character.
Let's leave this instant
-Yayayaya
-Yayayaya
You're so tone-deaf.
You're helpless.
Give it time. My voice will grow on you.
Let's leave this instant
Yayayaya, shocking, shocking
I love you
Rock and roll
Peace!
What's wrong with you?
Are you having fun?
However, now I've realized something.
Maybe I was the one who held myself back
and considered myself
only as a supporting character.
Write a page about it.
It can be a feature,
or about fashion, or beauty.
Use your discretion.
Gosh, I can't.
I'm not confident
and surely not ready for that yet.
So just try writing it for now.
About two pages will do.
No.
I really can't.
Grounded by reality,
I tended to give up easily.
I wonder if I was the one
who turned off my own spotlight.
People say that life is not a fairy tale.
It's so cute.
But sometimes, like a child or a fool,
maybe we should dream of a world
that only exist in fairy tales.
-Let's enjoy.
-Let's enjoy.
What?
Why?
My molar.
I think my tooth just cracked.
Stop playing around!
This is so good. Try some.
Try it.
How is it?
It's good.
-Is it good?
-It's good!
If we don't turn off our own spotlights,
if we never give up on our dreams,
we may be able to create
our very own fairy tales.
For example...
"Ddol-ddol's family gathered
to celebrate his return.
There was a bright red mailbox
in front of Sook-hui's house.
And at a very young age, Sook-hui..."
Hey!
Maybe you end up with your first love
when they say
it never happens in real life
or you play out the childhood dreams
that you had forgotten.
Miracles like that
might actually come your way.
Hand!
It's go time!
Let's go.
Yeon-woo!
Let's hurry home. Your mom's waiting.
