[Episode 3]
How did you know it was me who sent the flowers?
The musical theater.
So... when you were sitting alone at the theater... how did you feel?
I only told people that I got stood up.
The only person who knew exactly where I'd been is my younger sister.
The only other person who could've known is the person who sent the flowers.
So you were staking this place out?
No. I just kept watching to see what you were doing, and followed you.
At first I was just following you, but it became thrilling.
Now it's your turn.
What exactly are you trying to pull off here?
You sent me flowers, and even included blue roses
and then you sent me tickets to a musical and never showed up.
And this time it's a letter, huh?
Just what were you planning to do with this, exactly?
"I don't have the courage to appear before you, so I've taken my leave."
"Even though you're alone, I'm sure you won't feel lonely"
"because my feelings will be there to accompany you."
Well, I have all of you here now, and not just your feelings, so that's nice.
I don't even feel lonely.
All right. Spill.
Why did you go out of your way to do such troublesome things?
What should I say?
I can't read you.
I don't know if it's because we're really that different
or if it's because you're that great at hiding your feelings
but be honest with me for this one.
Why are you doing these things to me?
I'm at a dead end. There's no way out.
We see each other at the center every day.
And we're not on particularly good terms, either.
So what's the reason behind you doing these things to me, exactly?
I like you.
You... like me?
Choi Soo Hyun likes Go Hye Rim?
Talk about ridiculous.
Think about it a bit more closely. I wasn't that harsh toward you.
I had some interest in you, that's why.
You're pretty to me.
Go on. I'll hear you out at least.
What else do I need to say?
Look me in the eyes and tell me.
How do you feel about me?
I like you.
Lies.
Someone who likes someone enough to send them 10 bouquets of flowers
has such apathetic eyes? No way.
And also, that musical.
How could you ask me how it felt to be stood up
when you were the one who stood me up?
Are you some sort of pervert?
To me, there are two different Choi Soo Hyuns.
Choi Soo Hyun the person, and Choi Soo Hyun the psychologist.
I'm sure that the psychologist side of me was responsible for that.
And so, what was the person Choi Soo Hyun, doing?
He was busy liking you. How can I get you to believe me?
Write a diary.
Starting tomorrow, write an entry every day and have it checked by me.
Excuse me?
I know it's a bit childish
but you'd have to do at least that much for me to believe you.
I was never very good at homework in elementary school.
If you can't even do that much, well... it can't be helped then.
I'll tell the police that I have a weird stalker latching onto me.
Wait.
Are you going to do it or not?
I like you.
Well, yeah... I do have a lot going on for me.
Professor. Is that stuff really effective?
That kind of wall-pinning business? Only crazy bastards do that...
No... it is effective.
Everyone has something called "personal space"
and only one's lovers or family are allowed into it.
But if someone trespasses into their personal space all of a sudden
one becomes flustered, and and boundaries are broken down.
- Oh. I can try using it on Hye Rim... - Don't you freaking dare!
Not if you want to maintain your pride as a real psychologist, that is.
At any rate... diary entry, huh?
Diary entry...
December 7. The skies were clear today.
Today, I worked out a bit. It made me feel very good. The end.
December 8. Today, I read a reference book
about narcissistic personality disorder.
Considering "reinforcement," passive...
December 9. Today, I listened to a song by Toy.
I really liked the lyrics, so I'm writing them down.
"Many people, busy greetings..."
"I wonder how long it's been since we've all seen each other."
"A white dress..."
What the hell is up with these shoes?
Hurry up and get me different ones. Now!
And you got me clothes that look like rags!
How do you expect me to sing wearing stuff like this?
You're my anti-fans, aren't you?
Director! Please let me sing a different song!
This one is so old-fashioned. Okay?
Well, we're doing a special on the hit songs from the 70s and 80s this time.
And your clothes look fine.
This is just the rehearsal, so let's hurry and wrap it up, okay?
Even so... please?
This is the rehearsal! Let's just make sure everything is lined up, okay?
Start the music.
You can do it.
What's with her? Is she sick?
Hey, hey, hey. What's with her?
What's wrong?
- Ms. Ju Ni! - Hey!
Look here. Are you okay?
Ms. Ju Ni! Ms. Ju Ni!
A singer? I don't want to.
Her name is Ju Ni. You know who she is, right?
She's really famous.
I don't enjoy working with famous people.
She'll want special treatment because she's a celebrity. No thanks.
She has histrionic personality disorder.
I think she's been to a lot of different centers before turning to ours.
If we refuse her too, she has nowhere to go.
We can't just accept everyone because of circumstances like that.
I opened this center in hopes of studying many different types of symptoms.
Her symptoms are binge-eating and respiratory problems.
And she passes out whenever she hears John Denver's music.
John Denver?
Yeah. Especially when she hears "Annie's Song."
Isn't that fascinating?
- Ms. Ju Ni! - Oh my!
- Ms. Ju Ni! - Ms. Ju Ni!
Welcome, ma'am. I'm a fan.
You were a baseball player, right?
Yeah, you were. Have a seat here.
Huh? Um... no, that's okay.
Please fill out this chart here.
You'll get your consultation in the room over there in ten minutes.
Another cutie, huh? Have a seat here!
Hello, I work at the center here... could I get your autograph?
My daughter is a huge fan of yours!
Where did you say the consultation room was?
Oh, um... that way.
Can you think of something that has happened recently?
Is it really okay for the people who work here to be this way?
Everyone is so damn good-looking!
Please answer my first question
or I'll take it that you don't wish to get a consultation here.
Oh my. You're way too charismatic.
The most recent thing I can think of is...
well, I'm not sure. Perhaps having met you?
And what else?
Um...
What the hell is up with her?
She's making all those erotic noises and showing off her chest!
It's a symptom common among people who have histrionic personality disorder.
Look at that.
Even when she's flipping her hair, she's really exaggerating her movements.
That type of behavior is where the name of the disorder comes from.
She'll only feel better when she feels loved by absolutely everyone.
So... you're telling me that she's trying to seduce Mr. Choi?
I believe so.
And if she's rejected by even just one person, she'll be deeply hurt.
So... you just have to accept all that ridiculous behavior?
No. If you do, they'll think that what they're doing is right
so they'll become even worse.
So you have to establish clear boundaries and stop them, when need be.
Why do you hate November?
It's autumn.
When you hear John Denver's "Annie's Song,"
what's the first thing that comes to mind?
What about you, Doctor?
I asked you first.
Geez... so I guess Dr. Choi can get a bit shaken up, too.
Why?
Men are weak to visual things, so when they see a pretty woman
their frontal lobe becomes shocked!
So the brain stops functioning for a moment.
And Dr. Choi is a man, too.
Hye Rim.
What?
I told you, it can't get onto the paper part!
Look. This is how you do it.
That's not it, either. You have to draw a thin circle.
What's with that old hag?
They said that she's someone who goes back and forth from here to the cafe.
That woman looks way too happy.
What is this, a cowboy movie?
Where did all of my customers go?
How old are you?
At least 10 years older than you.
So... should an old hag like you go around seducing younger men
without knowing her place, or not?
They need to feel loved by everyone around them.
And if she's rejected by even just one person, she'll be deeply hurt.
This is my workplace. I need to run my business, so get out.
How much do you earn in a day? I can just reimburse you.
Um... who's responsible for her? Anyone?
- Um... - I'm talking right now, goddammit!
Look at me and talk.
Would you give me the menu and the wine list? (in French)
What's the most famous menu item on this restaurant's menu? (in French)
Give me one duck leg dish and a glass of coke. (in French)
Wow! That was delicious! (in French)
What the hell are you doing right now?
I'm actually called Madam Antoine.
My body is the host of the spirit of Marie Antoinette, old queen of France.
But if you continue to act this way, the queen's rage may...
Are you out of your goddamn mind? Hey!
Ow, my head!
Please, hold this woman back!
What the hell are you talking about?
I just asked her to make me a new cup of coffee, and...
she grabbed my hair, and...
I... I... this is so ridiculous that I can barely speak...
You know me, don't you?
Yes, I know you're not the type of person who'd do that.
Why?
Why are you all only taking her side?
Without clear evidence, I can't make any...
Doctor!
I feel so wronged!
This woman grabbed my hair, and...
You know that's not true! How could I do that to...
If you were aware of that, then why did you do it?
Big Bro!
I know, right? Doctor... you're the only one who understands me.
I feel so wronged.
It's been a while since your consultation ended, so why are you still here?
Please leave now.
Thank you. I'll be back.
I know that we have to protect her as much as we can
because she came to be treated.
- But... - So please, don't be mad anymore.
Do you think I can just make my anger disappear? I'm human too, you know!
And in front of everyone, too...
Did he fall for her during the consultation or something?
There's no way, so rest assured. He's never liked anyone.
What? Really?
He's famous in Psychology circles for a mantra of his.
"A psychologist does not know love. I've never liked anyone."
I like you.
Then... is there a possibility that he'll ever like someone?
I don't know. He hasn't for the past 35 years
so the possibility of that suddenly happening is...
close to zero.
Then everything was a lie!
What do you mean?
I know why you're here. As the consultant
I had to do what I did back there.
I already knew that, but I heard that you've never liked anyone.
So why did you do that to me?
Who did you hear that from?
You don't need to know! Why did you lie to me?
I've never lied to you. Really...
For someone whose feelings are supposedly genuine
they write stupid diary entries like this?
- I even drew you pictures-- - Whatever.
I don't care about anything else, but I need to know why you lied to me
and why you toyed with me like that. Why did you do that?
[Tell me that you like me with some genuinity!]
[Make me believe that you like me! Love me for real!]
[Win me over! Confirm it for me!]
What is it that you want?
What do you want me to do?
A... a date.
I'll see you at 1:00 tomorrow.
What the hell did I just say?
Hey. Don't you do anything else?
All you do is read and study. Don't you get tired of that?
You've never dated before, right?
- What did you say? - All the methods you taught me sucked.
You little... using me as an excuse now?
Hey, just focus on doing it right.
Then you'll have girls head over heels for you.
What about what I did just now? I saw it on TV last night.
Will that work?
Stop watching stuff like that!
It makes guys misunderstand everything!
I'm sorry.
You... women only fall for that if a guy they like does that.
How dare you be so brazen!
- Really? - Of course!
Okay, then.
You're not following me?
Where are we going, exactly?
A movie theater? A restaurant?
- Or... - What were you expecting, exactly?
We're going to the realtor's to investigate my patient.
Are you talking about Ju Ni?
Why are you investigating her?
Don't you just have to interrogate her and test her?
People who make a living by scamming can just do that, sure.
But during psychological consultations, the more I know, the better.
And also, people with HPD tend to be less willing to give up personal details.
So I have to do a good background search on her.
So she was born here and lived here until she was 17.
How were her parents?
Oh, they were quite sincere people.
Her mother was busy working at the market
and the father stayed at home and took care of the kids.
And he was so good at playing with them, too.
He even did the mom's share of the work.
That's how all three of their kids turned out so well. Ju Ni included.
I think that I managed to figure out the root of her personality issue.
Was there something especially problematic?
They said that her mother wasn't home often.
And because she lacked motherly nurturing
she probably tried to get it from her dad.
But there were three kids in her family, so there was a bit of competition there.
And so to get the most attention from her dad, she had to really give it her all
and became the Ju Ni we know today.
But not everyone in her situation ends up with personality disorders like her.
Of course. Some people have a greater affinity to becoming susceptible.
And because she's a celebrity, it's even worse.
But... I'm sure it comes down to love.
Because she didn't receive a lot of love as a child
she's desperately trying to be as loved as possible now.
Then, what about you?
I heard you've never loved anyone.
That means you've closed yourself off to love completely.
What's the reason for that?
Mom!
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
What do you mean? It's clearly not nothing!
Did you get stung by a bee?
What do you want to go eat?
Boeuf bourguignon, escargot, champignon. Pick one of the three.
I... want blood sausage soup.
Okay. Escargot it is.
Isn't this a really expensive place?
I heard that it's a 3-Michelin Star place so a lot of foreigners come to eat here.
Don't worry. I can make it so that you eat every meal of your day here.
It seems like a lot of married couples come here.
Yes, well... a lot of young couples can't really afford a place like this.
Do you think that those people's emotions toward each other will last forever?
The hormones produced from love are only produced for 3 years, at most.
They're just living off the affection they have left for each other.
Then... I guess my hormones' expiration date was short.
Since there doesn't even seem to be any affection.
Someone once said this...
A divorced person is a person who's broken
the most important bond in the world between two humans.
I'm scared to like someone again.
On the other hand, I do want to try liking someone again.
I'm so strange, aren't I?
So I guess that's why I wanted you
to prove to me through ridiculous means that you liked me.
Because if things went wrong again, I feel like I'd really break.
I'll cut that for you.
But... seeing you today, you seem kind of like a good person.
Oh yeah. But... why are you doing that experiment on me?
Are you okay?
Oh... yes.
Oh, I'm sorry. I just got a bit flustered...
I mean, um... my knife skills aren't quite good.
Oh, that's okay! I'll just think of it as a unique massage experience.
But, um... what were we talking about, just now?
Um... nothing important, really.
The lights went out?
Yes. It's a blackout. I don't know when the lights will come back on.
So if you want to get your car, you'll have to walk up.
I'm fine. Go on ahead.
December 11.
I had a personal encounter with subject Go Hye Rim for the first time.
When using a means of transportation
if she thinks we're going to a movie theater or a restaurant
her mood seems to gets better.
I see a possibility of her becoming my lover.
In particular, my initiating physical contact
at the parking garage was a great idea.
So I guess that's why I wanted you to
prove to me through ridiculous means that you liked me.
Because if things went wrong again, I feel like I'd really break.
A cautionary note: personal feelings.
Always remember that the most important experiment of my lifetime is on the line!
Hey.
Oh... you're here?
Why are you so lost in thought?
Just... my hand...
What about it?
Hye Rim.
Do you have some time later tonight?
Why?
I have something to show you. Baseball.
Okay. Is 7 p.m. after dinner okay with you?
Yes, sir!
What do I do? Do I go back to my office? Or do I just walk past?
But... we haven't even said a lot to each other lately...
I should say something to him... but what?
Mr. Choi Seung Chan...
A young person like you has no future plans?
Excuse me?
Oh jeez... what's with you? Why are you yelling at him?
It's because I feel frustrated watching you at that counter, at your young age.
Don't you have plans, or dreams?
It's only been a year since I retired from pro baseball.
A year is a long time. You're still so young.
What are you doing wasting your time like this
when you don't have a moment to spare?
I'm... sorry.
What the hell is wrong with you? Are you his mom?
Why are you yelling at him? Stop it!
Do things properly... all right?
Yes.
It's cool, right? I turned on all the lights.
All right. So I'm learning baseball from someone who was a pro, is that right?
Yes. Why don't we play a game while you learn?
You want to play baseball?
Don't we need at least nine people?
I'm telling you, there's a way.
Here, take this.
How come you're always sighing like that?
Me? I do that?
Yeah. Pretty often, too.
Why, are you worried about something?
I did get an earful from Professor Bae today.
She said to me
"is it okay for a young man like you to be living carelessly like this?"
But her words keep coming back to haunt me.
I retired, so I can't go back to baseball
and becoming a coach or umpire would be a miracle.
Do you really have to do something?
While living life, sometimes you have to face doing things you don't want to do.
Not everything can be solved through brute force, after all.
You're kind of cool, Hye Rim.
Did you just figure that out?
Yes, Chairman? Yes, yes.
Did you find anything out about the experiment I mentioned before?
I did find out that he's conducting one on me.
He said that it's one regarding people's ideal types and such...
I don't think that's the case.
There's no way that a world-renowned women's psychologist
would do such an experiment.
But he said that he's doing a pre-test right now.
He hasn't told me much, so I don't know anything about it.
Why don't you ask him yourself? He's even accepted your money.
You don't know his personality?
If I bother him a bit, he's going to sell his rights to someone else.
Well, yes...
Then, what should I do?
Try and find out once more what his current experiment is.
I'll give you all the money as a lump sum if you do.
[Cuckoo Bird]
What? What is it?
Um... the name of the folder was a bit strange, so...
I can't look?
Do I really have to tell you? It's porn.
I like porn too, you know. Let's watch it together!
This is some really nasty stuff, so I can't.
I'll bring you some new, high-quality stuff later.
Okay.
But you know, you seemed really desperate to prevent me from seeing that folder.
[Madame Antoine Project Pilot Study Blueprint]
What?
Do we need to continue with this experiment? I feel so bad!
You were just talking about how you wanted a motorcycle...
We're tricking Hye Rim!
I really can't just quit?
Then reimburse me for all the money that went into this experiment.
What?
Contract Article 7: when a subject quits the experiment in the middle
they will reimburse us 50 percent of the money that went into the experiment.
That's well over 20 million won.
Geez...
Oh yeah!
I had a lot of fun with Hye Rim yesterday.
What'd you do?
Want a cup of coffee?
What did you do with Seung Chan yesterday?
Excuse me?
Well... we just...
Welco--
When did you come to Korea?
No... how did you find out about this place?
I heard from Do Kyung.
You met Do Kyung? Why?
I have something to talk to you about regarding Do Kyung.
- Go outside. - Hye Rim.
I'll change and come out, so go outside!
Why? Why did your bastard ex-husband show up?
He said he came because of Do Kyung.
I'm about to talk to him, but I feel so uneasy.
She's probably not sick or anything, right?
I'm sure he would've told you by now if that were the case...
Let's go inside.
It's been a while.
And you're here too, Sister-in-Law.
I don't want to be called that by you, so state your business already.
Why did you come? What's wrong with Do Kyung?
Do Kyung... wants to study with us.
"Us?" By that do you mean you and that woman?
Yeah. They got close since she came by for meals--
I told you not to show yourself in front of her, ever!
How dare you, you two-timing bastard?
I told you not to see her!
Even so...
how could I do that when I knew she was studying in the U.S?
Geez... if you cared so much about her, why'd you leave her when she was a baby?
There's no more need for this. I'll confirm with her myself.
Here... she wanted me to give this to you.
Mom. I'm sure Dad told you everything by the time you're reading this.
I'm sure you're very shocked
but I want to live with Dad until I graduate high school.
Dad and that lady have been very good to me
and I really do like you
but I think we've been holding each other back.
"Holding each other back?" Did you tell her to write this?
No, she wanted to do this.
All we've been doing is supporting her. We've never forced our opinion onto her.
Even so...
Also, I like the lady at Dad's place.
I'm sure you don't like her, but she's not that bad of a person to me.
She's so good to me.
She's really a great person. Great enough for me to want to live with her.
Hye Rim.
I have to think by myself for a bit.
I do understand how you must feel.
I know why you told me not to even see her.
But, Mom... sometimes you made me feel burdened by saying things like that.
Thank you.
Hye Rim!
Um... did my sister come here, by any chance?
What's going on with Ms. Go Hye Rim?
I know someone came to see her from abroad.
And when she saw him, her face became pale and she left.
So, what happened after that?
Well, I'm not sure if I can share since it's about her personal life.
Ms. Yoo Rim, I'm a psychologist. And I'm a consultant, too.
If not me, who else could you tell to try and resolve this?
[Do Kyung]
Mom?
Yeah, what's my daughter been up to?
I saw your letter.
You didn't need to worry so much about it and write a letter...
you could've just told me!
Did you think that I'd say no?
I'm sorry, Mom.
No need for that! It's not like you'll never see me again.
I'm the one who's more sorry.
I said bad things about such a nice lady and made you feel awkward.
And I put you through a lot.
I'm such a terrible mom. Right?
Mom. You know that I really love you a lot, right?
Of course I do. That's why I'm letting you go like this.
Mom. I... have to go to school now.
Oh yeah... it's morning there now, right? Sorry for keeping you.
I'll talk to you again, Mom.
Okay!
That was the right thing to do, Go Hye Rim.
Good job. You've done well.
That's right. I did want to be loved by others.
And I was always worried about when my popularity would drop.
But, is that so wrong?
Everyone wants to be loved, after all!
Everyone wants to be loved, after all.
But my sister lost both the people she's loved most...
first her ex-husband, and now her daughter...
to the person she hates the most.
I'm sure she's a mess right now.
Ms. Go Hye Rim!
I heard everything from Ms. Yoo Rim.
I'll buy you Italian food this time, so let's go.
Choose between calzones, bistec a la fiorentina, ossobuco.
Can you come somewhere with me tomorrow?
Where?
My ex-husband is leaving tomorrow.
I want to skip the pleasantries and not see him off...
but he's someone who'll be living with Do Kyung from now on, so...
But he'll be coming with his wife.
And it'll look too pathetic for me to show up alone.
I'll go with you.
I'll dress up nice so I'll look good by your side.
I'm such a terrible person, right?
All I can think of is how I look, even in this moment...
It's not because I want to. It's for the experiment.
Because I have to make her fall for me.
I'm sorry, but I'll meet him alone.
I feel like I'm being too cowardly.
I can't even take care of something like this on my own.
I'm sorry for making you come all the way here.
Then I'll keep my distance.
- No, it's... - No.
You're not okay at all.
Resentment, jealousy, anger... it's all over your face.
You'll be a mess if all that breaks loose.
I have to keep watch from afar, at the very least.
Thanks for allowing it.
I didn't come out here because I like you.
But you will be the one taking care of Do Kyung from now on
so I thought it'd only be right for me to see you off.
Okay.
Is that your wife?
Yeah.
What? What are you going to do?
Don't worry. I won't hit her.
My Do Kyung is allergic to shrimp.
Oh... I see.
Please be careful when you're cooking for her.
She does study hard, but she also plays hard.
Please make sure you're firm with her when need be.
Um... what else is there?
Oh yeah. Her lips get chapped pretty often.
But she hates putting on lip balm.
Please make sure she puts that on every day.
I've written everything else down here
so it'll be helpful if you read it over.
Also...
please take good care of my Do Kyung.
Please love her a lot.
I'm begging you.
All right. I'll grant you your wish.
What do you mean?
If it's not anything crazy, like 100 billion won, I'll grant you any wish.
This isn't a chance that comes along every day, so...
Dance with me.
What?
Just like Maria and Captain Von Trapp danced in the Sound of Music.
Dance with me.
Or... show me Rome, like Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday.
Or propose to me in front of tons of people like in Love Actually.
Why don't you just ask me to start a circus with you?
I'm just kidding.
Those movies were a huge source of comfort for me.
Thanks for sticking by my side so that I wouldn't be lonely today.
I'm going to eat and drink and play a bit more around here.
Thank you for everything today.
Come outside for a bit.
What is it?
Do we really have to do what they did in the movie?
Oh...you mean what I said this afternoon? Don't worry about it.
I just...
Do Kyung.
Did you meet up well with your Dad and the lady?
I feel a bit better now, too.
Also, I'm not really sure yet, but... I think I might have met a good person.
And above all, I'm so happy lately.
And that's because the guys around me have been treating me so well!
I think they've all fallen for me!
Well, you know... I was quite a looker, back in the day.
I was quite popular among the guys.
Faster, faster!
This is so fun!
Ah, this is so great! Ji Ho, try this ddukbokki.
- Me too! - You too? Say "ah!"
Wow, it's so spicy!
Did you all have a good time?
Sorry we're late. The person who made the appointment hasn't shown up yet, right?
Ms. Go Hye Rim.
Clean the floors here.
Why? I'll do it.
You help Professor Bae organize her documents.
I thought you were a counselor. But what is it that you actually do?
That's right. I'm a counselor, not the cleaning lady.
But you don't do any work, so this is the least you could do.
What's with your older brother sometimes?
Please understand. You know how he can be.
Why is he so hot and cold?
Give that here. I'm going to polish these floors until they break.
Give it here. I'll do it.
It's fine! I'm going to make them sparkle so much that he'll become blind!
Bro, aren't you being too relaxed? Or do you have another plan in motion?
What do you mean?
You know that we went ice skating with Hye Rim, right?
It was really fun.
What are you going to do?
Let's say there are two fishing spots.
This is a completely natural, untouched one
and this is a spot where it's guaranteed
that you'll catch a fish one out of three times.
Which one do you think will attract more people?
What's this, now?
This one.
Why?
A place where you could catch fish so methodically isn't very fun.
This one is much more thrilling.
That's it. Thrill.
Or to put it in difficult terms, "sporadicness."
People don't like to be rewarded in such a predictable manner.
They get more into it if it seems to be impossible, or there's some uncertainty.
What does that have to do with...
This is the reason why bad boys are so popular.
It's impossible to predict their behavior.
So you're acting like a bad boy right now?
There's more to it. If you give a woman candy every day
then you'll become someone who's supposed to do that every day.
In other words, a candy vending machine.
But if you give them a hard time every day and then give them candy
the woman will be deeply moved.
"Ah, this person finally gave me candy!"
Bells will go off in their heads, and they'll be swimming in flower petals.
The world will seem like such a rosier place, and then...
Game set.
Since when were you...
Make an appointment at the hospital for next Monday.
We'll go get Ms. Go Hye Rim tested then.
You're going to confirm the results already?
It'll be the first intermediate diagnostic.
Are you confident? You haven't given her the candy yet.
This is called the fMRI, and it's used to record activity in the brain.
While you're lying down, you'll see some images of people.
All you have to do is look at them comfortably.
What kind of experiment did you say this was, again?
I'm studying the relationship between one's ideal type and one's immune system.
Is this the only experiment you're working on right now?
There are others.
We're doing a similar experiment with frogs and roaches.
So I'm on the same level as frogs and roaches, then.
Besides just the fMRi, we'll also perform a GSR, monitor your heart rate
as well as the dilation of your pupils.
It won't be anything too crazy
so just think of it as getting a full physical.
Oh, wait.
The string came loose.
What is it?
He gave her the candy!
Good luck.
Geez... you consider yourself human?
How could you do that right before starting the...
Shut it.
So what are we looking at here, exactly?
Does her brain become heart-shaped if she sees the person she likes?
Yep.
Really?
It won't become heart-shaped, per se, but it'll become red.
If she sees the photo of someone she likes
her brain responds immediately and appears red.
Where? The entire brain?
No. There's a part of the brain called the hypothalamus.
Since it's in control of instinctive behavior
it's also called the loving and trusting part of the brain.
It also generates the hormone dopamine when people fall in love.
Then... if we show her our photos...
The activity in that part of the brain will increase, and will turn red.
The person who makes her brain turn the reddest is the person she likes most.
This is the hypothalamus.
Okay. Show her the photos.
What the hell? This is Benedict Cumberbatch!
You can't do that. How can we win against him?
I put it in there for comparison. Apparently, he's an actor that she likes.
- Wow. - You saw, right? It'll change like this.
Okay. Let's really get started now.
Show us your heart, Go Hye Rim.
Who do you like the most?
Okay. Let's really get started now.
This is what a working man looks like.
A dazzlingly white button-up shirt, and a slightly undone necktie.
I use informal speech with all women.
Can you press the button for me?
Do you like smart women? My IQ is 210!
I'm going to die!
I think I've come to love you, Doctor.
Are you trying to act like an older sister to me?
Hey, Choi Seung Chan!
Okay.
Ju Ni really hates you, Ms. Hye Rim.
Are you out of your goddamn mind?
I'd like it if everyone loved me.
Do you think Mom could do that?
Could I drop everything and start loving someone?
I'll give you all the money as a lump sum if you do.
Who's inside? Hurry up and answer me!
I feel like a light turned on inside my mind.
