Maybe I was lonely and looking, or lonely from looking.
I never believed in love at first sight.
'Flower Boy Next Door' is about pretty boy neighbours.
Real life melodrama?
Why can't that man just confess his love?
How about a shy confession to her?
Compensate! Compensate!
That's why this man can't confess his love to her!
He doesn't want her to suffer!
That's what I felt last night.
Second flat, floor 4, I got you now.
He saw me!
So women spy on hot men!
I kept feeling it all last night...
You scum!
I'm glad I caught you. How dare you come here!
Go Dok Mi?
Dok Mi, it's you!
Episode 03
You're awake!
We can see your house clearly!
- Why am I here? - You fainted.
You should get examined.
My hyung's a doctor. He'll be home soon.
I'll get going.
Seriously, Ajumma...
Where are you going with no thanks?
I'm grateful for earlier.
Can you...
Can you help me out?
I'm about to do something difficult...
and I'd like you to stay.
She lives across the street.
She and I became friends.
Hey, what "Ajumma"?
Hello.
I'm Han Tae Joon.
I...
was just leaving.
Hey, Ajumma...
Introduce yourself.
This lady is very shy.
I'm...
Go Dok...
Go... Go Dok...
Go Dok Mi.
Go-Go Dok-Go Dok Mi.
She's staying for dinner
Of course. Stay.
Que-Geum's spaghetti is great.
Ah, you don't know my name.
I'm Enrique.
Korean name - Geum. Enrique Geum.
What's up, Ajumma?
People hear my name and say, 'Oh, foreign!'
'Oh! Pretty. A migrant? Where are you from?'
I usually get questions.
Why no response?
Miss Dok Mi, look me in the eyes.
No...
I... I'm fine.
I'm really fine.
What's "fine"?
Her face went pale and she fainted earlier.
Does that happen often?
Examine my friend carefully.
Seo Young is here.
Stick out your tongue.
- Que-Geum! - Que-Geum...
Call me sweetie.
You're crazy. Where's Tae Joon? Not home from work?
I'll check if you're anemic. so show your tongue.
No need.
Don't be like that... I'll be quick.
Um, no, I'm okay.
- Just once. - No need.
Why's the host so rude?
It's a year since I saw you. Shouldn't you greet a guest?!
Oh my, there you go again.
How are you a guest?
You're my little bro's friend.
- Dok Mi, Que-Geum's friend... - I'm Yoon Seo Young.
I'm Que-Geum's friend. Are you Han Tae Joon's friend?
She's my friend.
She lives across the street. She just met Tae Joon.
She's here after fainting, you firecracker.
Fainting can be dangerous, so get a physical.
Come to my hospital next to the park.
I'm so sorry.
- I... um... - Her attitude's nasty.
No, it's okay!
It's best I leave.
You can't!
If you go, they'll rip into me.
Please stay for dinner.
I'm not as bad as I seemed.
No. I didn't come for dinner.
Don't go, Ajumma.
Help me.
Please.
FIRST LOVE HURTS AND UNREQUITED LOVE IS SAD
Why won't it break off!
Hyung!
Want to 'hit' soup for dinner?
Are you hitting space?
Iron soup and rice? How?
Not iron, hit. It's a popular phrase.
Do you know the English words, 'hit' and 'eat'?
'Hit' and 'eat' rhyme ...same thing.
- Ah... - Do you get it?
This is 'hit'.
Yeah, that's a hit. It means 'let's eat'.
What was he saying?
Excuse me...
Could I borrow your phone?
I seem to have lost mine.
Here, use mine.
But keep the calls short.
Thank you.
What to do!
Their phone's off.
Wow, broken shoes, lost phone... you have lousy luck .
No, I have good luck normally.
The truth is, I just saved a little cat.
Cat?
A cat jumped in front of a car, and I pushed it out of the way
but my shoe ended up like this...
The cat survived!
Wow, you're beautiful inside and out!
How can we help you?
First, I need to fix my shoe.
It's going to snow later.
Snow?
The forecast isn't always right.
And who watches the forecast?
People watch the weather girl.
She's so hot.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry.
- I'm so embarrassed. - Be careful.
I'm sorry.
Here's a vase.
I got these at the florist next to your hospital.
The florist girl said you buy this kind sometimes.
She asked me all about you.
I told her I'm your girlfriend
and I like these...
so you buy them for me.
What are you doing? Stir.
Quickly, quickly...
Thank you.
Wow, unbelievable. They got it right.
Yuki! Yuki, yuki... (snow)
- Your girlfriend? - No.
- Yuki! - Hyung! Wait for us!
Where are you going?
Put it back on any old way.
Wear these for now.
Mister...
You have nothing else?
What if I get athlete's foot!
What? No good?
It's awesome.
Que-Geum's spaghetti is great.
Open a restaurant here instead of going back to Spain.
If you go back to Spain...
I don't think Tae Joon will see me again.
Ajumma...
What about feedback?
Is it good?
Yes.
But why do you call her 'Lady'?
She's so young.
Very young.
I'm bad with honorifics.
How'd you and Que-Geum meet?
We only met a few times.
Three dramas could be made from our encounters...
pervy to thriller to medical drama...
or I'm thinking of a melodrama.
It's better to drink water.
Anyway...
Are you uncomfortable or naturally quiet?
If that's your style, it's tiresome.
What's that tone of speech since you walked in?
How'd you get like that in 2 years?
If you're curious, you could've visited her.
How'd it get to 2 years? She came to Seoul for you.
Stop it.
I'm sorry.
That woman is suspicious...
Babbling on about a cat, throwing herself on you.
You think leaning on me was throwing herself at me?
You never let me speak
Where did Watanabe go?
Over here, here.
There he is.
I work here.
Here.
You started work here?
That woman earlier...
Her purse, coat, dress, earrings...
are the latest fashion.
You got all that in that time?
Your obsession with women is frightening.
A woman so into latest fashion...
Isn't it strange her shoes were from seasons ago?
It was a calculated approach to lure and seduce you...
Why would she do that, when I was standing next to you?
- A beauty like that? - A beauty?
Who is?
Wow, your taste in woman is so cheap.
A woman who's kind front, sideways and back...
That's the term for her.
You think the lady in 402 is kind?
No way in hell.
I saw 402 holding hands with Enrique, going somewhere.
What's between those two?
Did they spy on each other and lock gazes?
Through binoculars, their gazes locked and...
sparks started to fly, hearts started pounding...
Hey...
How can you only think about things like that?
Can't you not think lustful thoughts?
Stop going out in the evenings or I'll kick you out.
Just do your job correctly.
- Got it? - What's this?
Why are you riled up?
You'll make me choke.
Let's eat.
Que-Geum, when are you leaving?
In two months? Three months?
I'm not sure.
When Que-Geum leaves, you should go too.
Stop pairing me with Que-Geum.
We're just friends.
We're not anything!
You really want me to go?
You want me to leave your sight?
Don't touch it. You'll get hurt.
Leave it!
Ajumma, help me?
I'm about to do something really hard...
and I'd you to stay with me.
Don't, you'll get hurt.
Hyung, clean this up.
You guys keep talking.
Stop crying.
Men hate whining.
Let's go.
That's too spicy.
You?
Anyway, why are you in Korea?
Any...anyway...
Ah! It means you....you...
- Ah... you! You! - Ah, then...
I came to learn to cook.
Korean cooking is hard.
I will learn world cuisine.
So will you travel the world?
Yes. I will learn Korean cuisine and work.
- I'll leave first, OK? - Hey, hey, hey...
When our neighbour is bringing his dream to life...
where are you crawling to feed your lustful mind?
Lustful mind?
Pay the bill before you go.
Wow, you're too much!
Pay...pay together.
No, no, it's okay.
He's a chaebol's son who left home for his dream.
What?
I mean he's rich.
- He's rich? - He's loaded.
He's loaded!
Stop lying!
I'll pay the bill.
So don't poke me in the navel when I come in late.
Navel...?
Ah! I know 'navel'. Why'd he hit your navel?
It's locking another lock... You just need to learn.
I'm off.
Ah, sorry.
You must be cold.
Ajumma, I'm sorry.
I realized why you were spying.
You like Tae Joon.
When did you start? He didn't even know you.
No...I don't!
C'mon, you do.
I don't.
Really?
Really.
That's a relief.
They look good together.
See? You like him.
I ended your unrequited love, didn't I?
I have nothing to end.
Your unrequited love ended.
That's not it.
My first love ended.
My 10 years plus of first love... .
...over. .
Ugh, it's cold. I can't even go in and interrupt them.
Ugh, it's so cold!
Ajumma. Want a drink?
Your unrequited love ended, my first love ended.
This calls for a drink.
Come on, chin up.
Whether it's unrequited or first love,
there must be some happy memories.
Let's talk about things.
How do I feel now?
Refreshed, relieved, recharged...
Lies. .
Yeah, it's a lie. I'm not fine.
You heard that too?
Ajumma, let's go on a farewell trip.
I haven't a lot of time. I don't want to mope in my room.
Isn't it a killer idea?
Ugh, so cold. Ajumma, give me your phone. Hurry, hurry.
Hurry! Hurry, hurry...
Here, here it is.
I'll pay for the trip.
Ajumma, bring nothing.
Meet here tomorrow at nine. Okay?
I can't go.
Here... "The village at the end of the earth."
What if I go to the end of the earth alone
and really end it?
How can you say that lightly?
I know.
So let's go together! Go together, go together...
I'll call you at 9 a.m., OK?
Here's your phone.
Go in, okay?
I'm going.
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
No. I should've made my presence known.
Take your call.
Yes?
Dok Mi? Go Dok Mi?
It's me, Do Hwi.
- Go Dok Mi? - Go Dok Mi?
Isn't this Go Dok Mi's phone?
It is.
I need to ask something.
How much is the rent in your building?
I'm thinking of renting there
like a home office.
Not me.
What?
I don't live there.
I'm losing you in the elevator.
But I saw you go in earlier...
Hello?
Unbelievable!
Dok Mi just dissed you?
You go first.
Thank you.
You're a bit drunk. I'll take you to your place.
Trust me, OK? Let's go.
It probably scared her.
Someone who doesn't step foot outside her home...
suddenly surrounded like that.
What's Enrique's deal?
But why are you doing this for that 403 guy...?
He's not fluent in Korean.
Ah, right, his Korean.
But why's your photo here?
Put it up where everyone can see it, please.
Sure.
I ended my first love.
Ten years of my first love ... over.
Yes, goal.
Yay.
You can't go in there now!
So cold...
Where is he?
I should stop, right?
I'm sorry.
I'm not on this love plane.
I got the ticket first... but it's not my seat now.
You forgot I hate hearing "I'm sorry"?
He must be so cold.
People who think happiness is always in their reach...
how happy must they be?
That woman becomes nervous when she is too happy.
To that woman, happiness is like a child's game of blowing bubbles.
The moment she touches the bubbles floating her way with rainbow light...
they burst.
In front of happiness, that woman...
always gives up before reaching out her hand.
[ A happy day! ]
[ Delivery Person, thank you. I enjoy reading them ]
Ajumma, Ajumma, Ajumma...
We have to go on our trip. Let's go now!
We're not close enough to do a trip together
or for you to keep calling me Ajumma.
We're nothing to each other!
What kind of dream was that?
[ 9 a.m. End of Earth Village ]
Ajumma, bring nothing. Ok?
Meet here at 9 a.m., OK?
That's hot!
I'm sick...
Something urgent came up...
I don't want to go...
Hear the doorbell?
Can't you answer the door?
Who's here so early?
- Who are you? - 401, Oh Jin Rak, right?
Yes, that weirdo lives here. Why?
I was told to move you out now.
- Who said so? My brother? - The owner did.
Shut the door! Hurry and lock it!
- Why? - I said, lock it!
What's wrong?
Big trouble. The rent's due today...
and my account's low.
- You spent it all? - I didn't.
It's your account.
And why fuss over a day late? I doubt they'll evict us.
They will evict us.
That's the lease condition.
This is a good lease.
No security deposit, and good rent.
Everything's clean.
But, if your rent's even a day late...
you'll be evicted immediately.
I understand.
Is that sensible?
You signed without seeing the owner?
It's cheap so I signed.
Where else is rent 350,000 a month?
The last deposit is 230,000. I'm short 120,000.
Got any money?
You do.
You play up at night, but you're a rich only son.
Stop saying that! I'm not!
I'm telling you, I'm not!
If you're not, forget it.
I need your car keys.
Thank you!
[ My grandma is sick. I need to go see her ]
[ Have a great trip ]
Wait! Wait!
I'm taking care of it.
I'll tell exactly when the lease was signed.
I signed it at 10 AM.
I have two hours left.
We got paid to work.
- Open up. - Wait! Did you eat?
How about breakfast?
Moving day tradition is to eat black bean noodles.
Want some?
- How can we pay? - The one eating pays.
Dong Hoon, what's going on?
- What floor? - I'm headed there too.
There's trouble there.
Which unit are you going to?
402.
4...402? W-w-wh-why?
- To see a friend. - A friend?
Miss 402 is your friend?
Are you really evicting us?
It's what the lease says.
It's cold...really cold outside.
How can you treat us like this? Pay your rent on time!
It's embarrassing. Everyone can hear.
How much are you short?
120,000 won.
Uh...120,000.
Look, look at this... I knew you had money.
Is this all?
Are you kidding? We need 120,000.
- Take off your other shoe. - I've nothing else.
Take it off.
See? Nothing!
They're really evicting them.
- Wait... wait. - There's two hours left.
- Dong Hoon, you want a loan? - Yeah!
- Pay me back. - Already?
- Pay me back. - Give me the money!
But I only have 50,000.
- It's OK, OK. Thank you. - It's okay.
Here, here...100,000.
- It's really all you got? - I told you.
No extra 20,000?
What's that mean?
Are you a beggar?
Who are you calling names?
Mister, lend us 20,000 won?
Come on. Pack up.
What's this? Get moving.
Mister, how's this fair?
Why's he here again?
Dunno. The owner sent me to open the door.
I have to do as I'm told.
Why's it so loud out here?
I have a weak heart!
Ma'am, I'm sorry.
I'll handle this quickly.
Mister, let's be clear.
The contract deadline is 10 AM.
Right now you're trespassing.
Whatever, I'm doing as I'm told...
Money, money, money!
Thank you! Thank you!
I'll pay this, so guard our door.
Dong Hoon, fighting!
Um, I didn't check my account in time.
I'll repay you as soon as possible.
Ajumma, I'm here. Hurry. No time.
Ajumma, I'm here. Hurry. We've no time.
Hurry, hurry.
You have to grab space in this building.
People are waiting to get in.
Go Dok Mi lives here? Scabby Go Dok Mi?
No way...
- I'll take it. - Okay. Come to my office.
- Okay. - Yes.
You're taking out another loan?
Stop copying my fashion!
- Seriously humiliating... - Hey!
We bought your designs!
Don't complain when we buy your clothes.
- Seriously... - Right?
It'a a nice building.
What did I get myself into?
What have I gotten into?
Ajumma!
- Grandma... - Let's go.
I'm being punished for lying.
Ajumma. C'mon, let's go.
I got a text confirming the deposit.
Step closer and I'll report you for trespass.
Show me.
As for the guy making a fuss outside someone's home...
I can report you to the police.
It's all set.
The deposit is verified, so you can all go.
Go in and relax.
Ajumma...
Watanabe, thank you. Go home.
Bye.
Get your money back from Dong Hoon.
Let's go, let's go.
Let's go, let's go...
There you are.
What took so long? OK, you're dressed warm. Let's go.
There's no time, hurry.
Oh, hyung, fighting! Stay strong!
I was being so careful. How'd I get stuck here?
Where'd this persistent jerk come from?
Huh? What'd you say?
It's nothing.
Ajumma, type your grandma's address into the navigation.
Drop me at the terminal. I'll go by myself.
There's no time to talk. Your grandma's sick.
It's okay. Hurry and type.
Stop!
I said, stop!

I don't want to take her back home.
I noticed her first.
Is the girl next door really dating Enrique?
Shut your mouth.
Want to see the ocean again?
I saw you smile.
Don't you remember me?
I don't know what this means.
I have a favour to ask.
When we get back to Seoul, can you ignore me?
