Episode 108
Hello.
This is perfect for you.
This is part of our new spring line and really popular.
Well...
I'll look around some more and come back.
Okay.
You must be happy. You get to try on all the new clothes.
Aren't you getting on?
I'm getting on.
What the heck. What is it?
Did it stop?
Excuse me, the elevator stopped!
Is anyone there?
Excuse me!
What's wrong?
Are you okay?
Just hold on a bit. Someone will be here soon.
Ha Sun, what are you doing here?
I needed some books. Is your test prep going well?
Yes, I'm always preparing for it.
You must be tired.
Working at the clinic and studying at the same time.
It's okay. I may be small
but as you know, I'm very healthy!
Good luck!
When are you leaving? I'll treat you to dinner.
Hurry and open the door!
Just a moment!
Hold on just a bit longer.
It's open.
Are you okay?
- I'm okay, but he's-- - Are you okay, President Kim?
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Why would you get in the elevator--
I thought I'd be okay for a moment.
Thank you for your help.
It was nothing. Goodbye.
Hold on.
Yes? Me?
Yes. If it's okay with you, I'd like to repay you.
Repay me?
How will you do that?
Anything.
Anything in our mall is okay,
so you can pick.
"Our mall"?
I can really pick anything?
Anything?
Yes.
- Hello, sir. - Hello, sir.
Thank you.
Why did you struggle so much in the elevator?
I have claustrophobia.
Why do you have claustrophobia?
When I was younger, I got in an elevator
and got stuck because there was a fire.
I was trapped alone for a long time.
I've been traumatized ever since.
I see.
It must be really hard.
Is there something you like?
I do kind of like that...
That one?
Everything that mannequin is wearing from head to toe
and all of this. Please ring it all up.
You eat too.
Here. Thanks.
Is it Ji Suk?
Yeah. He said he'll come get us when we're done eating.
I see...
I'm so envious of you.
Of what?
You have the love life every woman dreams of.
Dating someone who likes you and only you.
Jin Hee, is it still hard?
Because of Gye Sang?
What? No!
That was such a long time ago!
I'm really okay now.
I mean, it does hurt a bit when I think of him sometimes...
but that's just momentary.
Looks like we need a new grill.
Excuse me!
How can that happen?
If it's a mall CEO with claustrophobia,
isn't that Hyun Bin from "Secret Garden"*? (*Korean drama starring Hyun Bin)
Right? But I guess stuff like that really exists.
You believe him? He's totally scamming you.
It's not a scam, you dummy!
Sun Woo Mall's CEO really is in his 20's.
Was it this guy, Kim Bum?
Yep. That's him, Kim Bum.
Show me.
He's handsome!
Wow, you should date him.
I'm thinking of how to make him my boyfriend.
Is he on drugs? Why would he fall for a minor like you?
You're overreacting over some free clothes.
Dummy, we already made plans to get lunch together tomorrow.
I don't have time for this.
I need to go take care of my face.
Jin Hee must have been really tired.
She's been working hard and studying a lot these days.
I feel bad for her every time I see her.
Why?
Truth is, her family isn't that well off.
She has a lot of younger siblings back home,
and her mom doesn't make a lot of money...
She's working so hard to make a living on her own in Seoul,
and she can't find a job...
It'd be nice if she had someone to take care of her...
You're right.
Dr. Lee Juk's lights are still on at the hospital.
He must work late.
So you're a college student.
What year?
Junior...
Where?
Myung In University...
Myung In University?
You must have done very well in school.
Yes, well...
Excuse me.
Enjoy your meal.
This place is famous for their steak. Try it.
Yes, thank you.
What's wrong?
I'm really sorry, but can you put the knife and fork away?
Excuse me?
What's wrong with these?
I have aichmophobia.
I can't really look at sharp objects.
Oh, is that so?
Is that better?
I'm sorry.
Fear of sharp objects? Didn't know there was such a thing.
Why do you have such a phobia?
When I was younger, I once cut my hand during sculpting class.
There was blood oozing out, but my teacher wasn't around,
and I had to endure that situation alone for a long time.
Ever since then I can't look at sharp objects.
I see...
I even have a scar here, want to see?
Here.
Isn't that just a line on your palm?
What?
Was it my right hand?
How do you eat steak without a fork and knife?
Isn't the steak very tender?
It really is.
Dinner?
I do have time...
but why all of a sudden?
Oh, remember? I'd said that dinner will be on me next time.
Then let's do it.
I'll see you later then. Oh, and I'll bring Jin Hee too.
Okay!
Jin Hee, I may not be able to find you a job,
but I will get you a proper boyfriend.
Jin Hee, you want to eat out for dinner?
Sounds good, sounds good!
The new hamburger place nearby is incredible!
- Let's go there! - I've been craving hamburger too!
I wanted to go with just Jin Hee...
What? Just me?
Just you 2? What about us?
You guys can eat with us next time.
I have a few things I need to talk to Jin Hee about.
Either way, you're eating dinner with me.
Okay.
Shall we take the elevator?
What? You have claustrophobia.
Since you're here, I think I can overcome it for today.
We're almost there. Just a bit longer.
What's wrong?
Agoraphobia...
What?
I get anxious when I'm in open places.
There's a coffee shop on the 3rd floor. Would you like to go there?
I can't get back on the elevator.
Because of your claustrophobia?
But we can't go that way because of your agoraphobia.
I...can't...breathe...
Close your eyes.
Don't look and just follow me.
I feel much better now.
Thank you so much, Soo Jung.
I survived again because of you.
I didn't do much.
Why do you have agoraphobia?
I lost my mom at the amusement park once when I was young.
It's still so vivid in my mind.
I was lost and alone for nearly an hour.
Since then, it's difficult for me to be in open, public spaces.
I see.
That can happen if you've had such an experience.
How old were you?
18.
What?
So when you were a junior in high school?
Yes.
Why aren't you picking up your phone?
It's my mom.
I told her I'm meeting you, so she must be wondering how it went.
Did you tell your parents about me?
A little bit.
They asked me to thank you for the clothes.
It's nothing.
Introduce me to your family.
I'm curious to know what your family is like.
We're eating at this nice place?
You need to eat at nice places sometimes.
Dr. Lee!
You invited Dr. Lee too?
Why not? He's a nice person. I really, really like him.
Isn't she cute when she eats?
When she eats like a squirrel, like this. So cute, isn't she?
Juk, you have a very charming smile. Doesn't he, Jin Hee?
Stop that.
Yes...well...
Now that I take a closer look, you look alike.
Who? Daniel Craig?
No. You and Jin Hee.
- What? - You two look alike.
Really.
You look so much alike, you might even have similar personalities.
What?
You want to play the telepathy game?
You answer on 3 at the same time.
Ddukbokki or soondae? 1-2-3! (ddukbokki: rice cakes in spicy sauce; soondae: Korean sausage)
- Soondae! - Ddukbokki!
That's perfect! Ddukbokki and soondae is the best combination!
- What the heck?! - Um, okay...
By the way, you guys like musicals, right?
My school gave me 2 tickets, but I can't go.
So do you two want to go together instead?
Which show is it?
You even lied about being a college student. Good going.
Shut up, dummy.
Mom, you can see the fork and knife there!
I told you we have to put anything pointy away!
Oh, you're right. Alright.
Why do we have to do all this for that guy?
Why not? Who knows, he might become our son-in-law.
You're getting ahead of yourself.
Then you 2 won't have to work so hard anymore.
He must be here.
- You're early. - I wanted to see you sooner.
Nice to meet you, I am Kim Bum.
- Welcome. - Come on in.
What is all this?
It's not much.
Let me introduce you.
My father, mother and my older brother.
My older brother.
Keep mocking me and I'll hurt you.
I'm Soo Jung's brother's friend Kang Seung Yun.
Nice to meet you.
You're very good-looking in person.
- Come on in. - Hold on.
Have some tea here first.
Isn't it better to eat first?
- What is all this? - It's better to have tea after.
- What's wrong? - Does your head hurt?
1 person at a time. 1 person at a time.
What?
I'm sorry, but can just 1 person speak at a time?
I have a fear of loud noises called ligyrophobia.
Fear of loud noises?
Yes.
My parents yelled at me simultaneously once when I was younger,
and I've been traumatized ever since.
Oh, I understand, I'm so sorry!
1 person at a time!
1 person at a time.
Please, 1 person at a time.
Yes, I'll speak first.
Come on in and eat.
Thank you for dinner.
It was nothing.
What do you think about Juk? He seems like a nice person, no?
Yes.
Why do you keep trying to hook me up with him?
Why, what's wrong with that?
Isn't he a really nice person?
You do as I say.
You already paid.
I was going to pay.
I told you it was on me.
You can pay for the next round.
You will, won't you? Please do.
Sure, why not.
Great! Jin Hee, where should we go next? What do you want?
We're going to another place now?
We're all here together, so we can't just go home now.
I know a nice wine bar nearby. Want to go there?
The ambiance there is really--
Ha Sun!
- Ha Sun, are you okay? - Are you okay?
I'm okay. I'm fine.
Let's go somewhere else now.
No way. Shouldn't you go to the hospital?
You fell pretty hard. Did you get hurt at all?
I'm okay, so let's go.
I don't think you're okay.
I'm okay. I'm perfectly fine, I tell you.
Ha Sun! Blood!
Your head is bleeding!
- Blood! - Ha Sun!
She fell and hurt her head. I think she fainted.
- Make sure to take a CT! - Okay.
Please fill out the paperwork here.
Okay.
She'll be okay, won't she?
Her injury wasn't that bad,
and she fainted because of the blood,
so you don't need to worry too much.
Miss, where are you going?
- Ha Sun! - Miss!
I forgot to give you these.
Please go see the musical together.
- What are you doing? - We will, so please go back inside.
You 2 have to go together.
Okay? You 2 have to.
This really isn't that big a deal.
She's really unpredictable sometimes.
You're right.
Well, I did hear it's a good show.
Want to go together?
I would like to go too,
but I have to study on the weekends, so I don't think I'll have time.
You can just go with a friend.
Yes...well...
I'm sorry everyone has to eat like this because of me.
- No, it's okay. - It's not a big deal.
I don't know if the crab casserole is to your liking.
I like it.
What's wrong? Do you not like it?
It's not that.
The clothes...your clothes, Mrs. Ahn...
My mom's clothes?
What's wrong with my clothes?
I have trypophobia, a fear of circles and holes.
I can't look at circular objects that are close together.
What a weird phobia.
Mom, cover it with this.
Is this a little better?
Yes...I'm sorry.
When I was younger, I had polka dots on my ceiling,
and I used to count them when I couldn't sleep,
but at one point, I couldn't stop counting them.
I counted them going across, then I counted them going down,
and then I'd count them diagonally,
so since then, those urges come back when I see similar patterns.
I'm sorry, I'm so sensitive to so many things.
Please! Please!
What now?
I'm sorry, but can everyone not look at me?
I have scopophobia, which is a fear of being looked at.
I can't stand it when everyone looks at me all at once!
Please!
Can some of you turn your heads?
Dum--Jong Suk and Seung Yun, look somewhere else now.
I had a cello concert when I was younger,
and I suddenly couldn't think of the first note.
All those eyes on me were suffocating,
and I've been traumatized since.
I'm sorry.
Ha Sun!
What about Ha Sun? Is she okay?
Ji Suk, your clothes--
Who cares? That's not important!
What about Ha Sun?
Guardian of Park Ha Sun?
Me! Me! Me!
How is she?
There's nothing to be worried about.
She had 2 stitches and just needs to get some rest.
I'll stay here so you 2 can get going.
That's my room up there.
Attic room. It's nice.
It's very small and messy, so don't expect too much.
Why aren't you coming up?
What is it now?
My freaking acrophobia.
Fear of heights?
Why?
When I was younger, there was a sweet smell
coming from the top of the furniture at the furniture store,
so I climbed up and the entire display fell, and we got sued.
- That-- - Traumatized you?
I could have gone alone.
It's on the way.
It's also rude to send a woman home alone late at night.
Thank you.
So, do you really not want to go to the musical with me?
I'm not trying to pressure you,
but I don't really have anyone else to go with.
If you really can't, then there's nothing I can do,
but I'd hate to see the ticket go to waste...
- Alright. - Will you go?
Sure, why not.
Yeah, it helps to get some fresh air sometimes.
Sir, please let me off here.
Why don't you go to the front of your house?
I have to stop by somewhere.
Please pull over here.
Okay.
Then get home safely.
- I'll give you a call. - Okay.
Get home safely.
What is it? Did you forget something?
The thing is...I'm really sorry...
I really don't think I'll be able to go to the musical with you.
I'm sorry. Thank you for everything today.
Jin Hee, hold on!
You take these.
It's okay if you don't go with me,
so you can go with your friend and have fun instead.
Then.
Dr. Lee!
You can just go with your friend.
I'll feel really bad if you don't.
Then.
Jin Hee, take the tickets!
Don't follow me!
I got out of the cab because I have to use the restroom!
Stop following me!
Jin Hee!
You go watch this.
It's a nice way to relax when you have a lot going on.
Then I'll get going.
So you're really struggling with your phobias?
Yes...kind of...
Will you tell me which phobias they are?
Well, there's kind of a lot.
First, there's claustrophobia and aichmophobia...
Yes...
agoraphobia, scopophobia...
fear of bathing, fear of suffocation...
fear of vain desires, fear of viewer ratings...
fear of beer, fear of gaining weight...
fear of presenting, fear of meetings...
- Fear of dawn... - Hold on.
fear of crossing streets, fear of social situations...
There was a total of 107 phobias Bum named that day.
How many phobias do you live with?
Fear of failure...
