Get over here!
Get him! It's X!
Stay still.
I've got you.
You've been caught.
You little rat.
Did you think I couldn't catch you,
you punk?
- Stop! - Get him!
- Hurry! - Get him!
Stop over there.
I'll see you at the warehouse.
Go around.
I'll go this way. You go that way.
Okay.
Who are you?
Sir, didn't you see X around here?
He went this way. X...
I came from this way.
What are you doing here, Tae Woon?
I was chasing X just until now.
Wait, over there. X is over there.
What?
This way. He's over here.
I can't run so fast.
Gosh.
This way! He must've gone this way.
I found his hoodie.
Did you find X?
That's his hoodie.
Did you get only his hoodie?
We almost got him.
He took this off and ran away.
Where on earth is the owner of that hoodie?
I wanted to catch him so badly.
You must be tired from all the running.
Take a little rest here and go.
Gosh. X, that punk.
I should've caught him.
Goodness.
By the way, who is he?
What do you mean?
He's the son of the school director.
The future director of Geumdo High School.
(School 2017, How to Face a Misunderstanding)
(Episode 14)
Are you okay?
You didn't get caught?
Of course not.
I'm X. I won't get caught that easily.
Look at all this sweat.
Are you not hurt?
No, I'm all right.
- My leg. - Your leg?
- Yes, gosh. - Why?
I think I sprained my ankle.
Really?
What should we do?
It was fine a while ago.
But it hurts so badly now.
It hurts?
You don't have medicine in here, do you?
No.
- Let's hurry home. - But...
I'm not sure if I can walk properly.
- Are you okay? - It hurts.
- It does? - Yes.
Does it hurt a lot?
Should we go to the emergency room?
No, it's not that serious.
By the way,
if you sprained your ankle like this,
you can't ride a bike, can you?
What?
Maybe I should walk you home.
Well... I guess so.
This is so upsetting.
Goodness.
When will your dad come home?
Will it get better tomorrow?
I'm not sure.
I think it'll take long to recover.
You think so?
Let's go to a hospital tomorrow.
Okay.
But the principal will now think...
X is a group of two...
since he saw me too.
I do think he'll make some kind of move.
Why did I decide to go there all of a sudden?
I was just worried.
Were you worried about me?
Why? Why were you worried so much?
I'll go now.
Put ice on that.
All right.
Hey.
What?
Go home safely.
I need to at least see my girlfriend off.
Your girlfriend?
Girl...
Bye.
Goodbye.
Bye.
It was nice when I lied,
but I couldn't see her off because of it.
I should use this tomorrow again.
So they're a group of two for certain.
There's clearly an accomplice.
One of them must be Eun Ho.
Then the other...
Who's the other?
Dae Hwi?
He broke into the teacher's room last time.
And he stole the questions for the math competition.
He's suspicious.
But I know he's not.
They made him look like X to confuse me.
Last time when X showed up,
Dae Hwi and Tae Woon were at the warehouse.
X is over there!
Get him now!
Hold on.
What are you doing here?
We just wanted to study quietly by ourselves.
It's our study room.
To hide the identity of X,
they used him as a fake to look suspicious.
That totally makes sense.
I'm more of a detective material than a principal.
Now, the principal is sure that it's a group of two.
He'll take detailed actions now.
For the time being,
you better be more careful.
Eun Ho.
You'll be in trouble if you get caught this time.
You're right.
It seems like they threw out the products...
passed their expiration dates after the incident.
Then again,
the food is getting better too.
So...
let's wait and see how things go.
We can't keep doing this any longer.
We have limited budget,
so we can't provide high-quality lunches.
Are you insane? We won't do that.
We've appeased them,
so we'll go back to how things used to be.
All right, sir.
We'll lower the quality of food ingredients...
and provide non-nutritious menus then.
Proceed it in secret...
so that no one notices.
Is your ankle okay now?
Sure. I'm all better now.
Oh, no.
What a bad timing.
Are you crazy?
We're in school.
So what?
Other kids are watching.
What if it becomes the talk?
What do you mean? I'll be so happy then.
I'm the one who wants to spread it.
You...
What are you doing?
- What are you doing? - What are we doing?
- What should we do? - Look at you.
Are you insane?
Why can't they know about it?
Everyone should know about it...
so that no one will have feelings for you.
We won't be able to turn back if they find out.
If your dad finds this out...
No turning back?
You're right.
No turning back.
- Rumor. - No.
- Byung Goo. - No.
Come here.
- Come here. - No, just ignore him.
Just go. Are you okay?
I'm okay.
- I need to talk to you. - No, don't go.
Turn around.
Let's drink some orange juice.
Did you hear the rumor?
What rumor?
Eun Ho got a boyfriend.
So if you know about this rumor,
they'll all know...
Eun Ho's boyfriend?
I heard about it already.
You did?
Her boyfriend?
Yes, everyone knows about it.
Really?
It's the boy who posted a letter last time.
No, Byung Goo.
That punk isn't her boyfriend.
Her boyfriend is...
Do you want to die?
We need to talk.
No.
Wait, your ankle.
- Oops. - Oops?
It got better for a second.
Or not.
Sorry. Hey.
Hey, you come over here.
- Sorry. - You little...
Stop, it hurts.
I'll make you sprain your ankle.
No, stop.
- Sorry that I lied. - You...
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry!
- You always say that. - Hold on.
- I can't walk. Stop. - You!
- Stop hitting. - Gosh.
(Instruments Store)
Yes, Mr. Hong.
Don't worry too much.
I talked to her on the phone.
She'll be back soon.
Yes.
Goodbye.
(Hong Nam Joo)
Nam Joo.
Where have you been?
You missed school.
Nam Joo.
It's tough, right?
I'm sorry.
You must've had so many things you wanted to do.
But you gave up on your dream because of me.
I'm sorry.
Stop it.
You don't have much appetite?
Shall we go buy something else for lunch?
No, it's all right.
Eun Ho.
I heard you're dating someone.
Tae Woon told me.
Who is it?
Well... I do have a boyfriend.
Someone who's good at acting.
Acting like he hurt his leg.
Acting?
Is he a celebrity?
Then is he an actor?
Why do they always provide awful lunches...
in Korean high schools?
Exactly.
Honey.
You want to go have some ramyeon instead?
I told you to stop calling me that.
Be careful.
You might get an upset stomach like last time.
Why would you care?
- Sorry. - Stop it.
I'll be fine.
It's okay.
Eun Ho.
Hey.
Eun Ho.
What's wrong with her? Eun Ho.
Eun Ho, what's wrong?
Eun Ho, are you okay?
What's wrong? Hey!
- Eun Ho. - Eun Ho.
Eun Ho, wake up.
Eun Ho.
- What's wrong with her? - Eun Ho.
- Wake up. Are you okay? - Eun Ho.
Eun Ho. Hey.
It's food poisoning,
but because her immune system is very weak,
there was a risk of complications.
Does she need to be hospitalized?
It's not that serious.
She needs to be careful on what she eats for a while.
She may leave after resting for a few hours.
Thank you.
We should call her parents, right?
The doctor said she'll be fine after a few hours,
so I'll call them around the time.
You can go now.
What?
Me? Why would I...
I'll be with her. You can go back to school now.
Well... That's...
I need to be here.
I'm worried as her classmate.
I didn't know you're that type of person...
to worry about your classmates.
Yes.
Very much.
Yes, sir.
I didn't leave work yet.
One of my class students is...
Yes. Pardon? That file?
Yes. I'll send it to you right away.
Yes, sir.
Goodness.
Tae Woon. I'm sorry, but stay with her for a while.
I'll be right back.
Sure. You don't have to come back.
I'll keep a good eye on her.
As her classmate.
All right.
Bye.
That's rude.
You can't be pretty even when you're sick.
Yes, don't worry, Mr. Shim.
Are you really okay?
I don't know why I keep having these problems.
I think the school meals became low quality again.
Kids in other classes...
broke out in hives and got stomachaches too.
No wonder. I felt weird when I was eating.
It didn't get better.
If it was the school food, I won't forgive them.
You've lost so much weight.
Do I look frail?
Does it break your heart?
Stop acting cute.
It's counter-productive.
How pretty.
Do you want flowers?
Let's go. I'll buy you meat. That's more you.
I'll buy you beef. Pretty marbled beef.
Okay. Good night.
Don't eat just anything because you're hungry.
Okay. I won't tease you. I'll stop.
Good night.
It's food poisoning,
but because her immune system is very weak,
there was a risk of complications.
It was definitely the school lunch.
How dare they feed us garbage like that?
I'll get you back for this.
Are you the principal, Mr. Yang Do Jin?
Yes, I am.
Mr. Hyun Kang Woo sent you a lunch set.
He did?
He thanked you for your service and said to enjoy.
- Okay. - Enjoy. Have a nice day.
Mr. Yang. Let's go to lunch.
Go without me. Enjoy.
Can you finish all that alone?
That's strange.
I hope he likes it.
Too much wasabi.
"Did you enjoy the food?"
Did you enjoy the food?
It was made using only expired garbage.
You fed this to us a lot as our school lunch.
If you get food poisoning from eating this,
it's because you're weak.
Nothing's wrong with the food.
Just as you've always said.
Ambulance. Ambulance!
What is it?
Food poisoning.
- Who? Who? - I'm itchy all over.
- Call an ambulance. - Excuse me.
We will, but you look way too healthy.
I have food poisoning.
With that much energy, you can go on your own.
My stomach. I need to go right now.
You may die if you aren't careful.
- I have to... - Goodness.
How did you get so heavy?
This is hilarious.
What is this?
- I can't stop laughing. - It's so funny.
Wasn't that too mean?
What if he really gets sick?
Hey. The food was fresh.
I ordered it from a hotel.
Then is the principal...
He's freaking out because he's scared stiff.
- Then what was this? - He was itchy.
It's all in his head.
That feels good.
I have too much to do. What am I doing here?
It's better that you aren't there.
Please get up.
Doctor.
He's very sick.
He's itchy and has diarrhea.
Whatever. He's fine. Please get up.
What is your problem?
I ate spoiled food.
The chart doesn't lie. You're perfectly fine.
We have patients who need the bed, so please leave.
Why that doctor...
Goodness.
The food-poisoning patient is digesting so well.
You ate such a variety of foods.
Goodness.
I'm going to catch these punks and kill them.
X, you jerks.
Oh my gosh.
- Trash can be recycled. - And?
I'm worse than trash that can't be recycled?
Is that it?
How could I dare say that with my own lips?
You just feel guilty, that's all.
Is this about my complaint regarding the lunch?
That's a bit immature.
Immature?
Then don't do it.
How dare you?
You punks. How dare you kick garbage around?
Oh my. I meant to kick it into the trash can.
Oops.
Oh my. I saw you...
kick it, so I was copying you. Oops.
You're always together,
like cockroaches.
You're suspicious.
Very suspicious.
You're always together.
(Custodial Service Vendors)
Do you know what this is?
These are requests to hire them to clean our school.
Even if I fire your mom,
there are plenty of people who can clean for us.
Mr. Yang.
My mom did nothing wrong.
She bugged me about the school food.
That's doing wrong.
So tell me who X is.
Then your mom can continue cleaning at the school.
I really don't know.
You're with Eun Ho all day and don't know?
Then I have no choice.
Tell your mom to look for another job.
Mr. Yang.
Sa Rang.
Look.
The ethics have hit rock bottom.
It's not funny?
How did he think of this?
Isn't it so innovative?
He has no intention of turning himself in?
- What? - Tae Woon.
If he confesses to being X,
that will solve everything.
He's the director's son, so he won't be punished.
Well...
There's a reason why he can't.
A reason?
Why do I feel like his being X...
is a childish hero cosplay?
That's not right.
He'd be hurt if he heard.
Hurt about what?
It's true.
It's because he's the director's son,
that he's doing this. His dad has his back.
Hey.
He's so annoying.
Sa Rang.
What's with you?
Is something wrong?
You're the same.
How long have you guys dated, that you...
treat me this way?
If you like him so much, just hang out with him.
You don't need someone like me anymore.
Sa Rang. That's a bit harsh.
If you're mad, say what it is.
Don't beat around the bush.
You're lucky...
you can say whatever you want.
Why aren't you asking me anything?
Aren't you curious what's going on?
I'm not curious.
I'm worried.
Worried?
You're wise, so you'll handle the problem well.
It's just...
I hope you don't get too hurt.
That's my worry.
I mean,
she needs to tell me what's wrong.
How can I know what's wrong...
if she doesn't tell me?
Maybe Sa Rang is hurt.
Since you suddenly got a boyfriend...
No.
We talked that out last time.
She was sincerely happy for me.
What's going on?
But she's a thoughtful person,
so she must have a reason.
This isn't right.
How can you fire me? Where am I supposed to go?
Please. I'll do better.
Please forgive me.
This is my livelihood.
Please forgive me just this once.
It's not that extreme.
I'm giving you a month.
You mean you'll fire me a month later.
What did I do wrong?
Tell me, so that I can fix it.
Look. We have no choice.
I got orders from above to fire you.
Leave. Keep it down.
How could you do that?
Did you really fire my mom?
How dare you barge in here?
Did you think I was kidding?
You're too mean.
My mom works very, very hard.
Even during her break time,
she says a school with kids has to be clean,
and is sweeping and mopping.
Oh well.
She'll have to clean her own house now,
thanks to her loyal daughter.
- Mr. Yang! - You punk.
So tell me who X is!
It's up to you whether or not you do,
but if you keep quiet,
your mom will never get her job back!
I really don't get it.
Is X more important than your own mom?
Clouds are so lucky.
All they have to do is...
float without a worry in the world.
Yes.
I envy them.
You seem disturbed.
I thought I knew her the best,
and that I understood her the most,
but now,
I wonder what we were...
to each other.
Relationships get harder,
the deeper it gets.
Hello?
Yes, sir. I'll come in.
Yes, sir.
Relationship are always...
harder to maintain.
That's why you must give your all to do it.
Good luck.
Your assignment at Geumdo will end after this month.
You'll get a new assignment.
Yes, sir.
I gave you a chance.
It was your incompetence that failed to use it.
You never lose something...
once you latch on.
How did you suddenly become so incompetent?
There's time until your new assignment,
so use your skills that you've been hiding,
and turn the tables or something.
Okay?
I think...
you need some new material.
Should I put a laxative in the principal's food?
Hey.
What if he gets angry and freaks out?
That would make it funnier.
Is being X a joke to you?
Do you do it for fun?
What grand a reason would I have?
We're in this mess because of that immature joke.
Sa Rang. That was a bit harsh.
Are you mad at me?
Yes.
Very mad.
I thought you had your own sense of justice.
I'm disappointed that you're X just for fun.
Because of you, I...
I'm not a hero. What do you want from me?
Stop it.
Sa Rang. Tae Woon worries...
a lot about the kids and the school.
Are you worried only about him?
Seriously, what's with you?
I'm having a tough time because of you lately.
Sorry for making things tough for you.
Goodness.
- What is this? - Sorry.
- I'll do that. - Seriously.
Do your job right.
I'm sorry.
You call this doing your job?
I was working on it, but stepped away...
Seriously.
- Do it right. - I'm sorry.
I'll do it.
Couldn't you just appease Sa Rang?
Did you have to argue with her?
She started up with me first.
You heard her call me immature.
She's my friend.
It was nothing serious.
You could've let her win.
She suddenly had me say I'm dating,
and about X...
Fine. Sorry.
But she was harsh too.
That is true.
Why is she so irritable lately?
If she's upset, she should tell me.
If she doesn't tell me,
how am I supposed to know?
I should've nipped it in the bud.
I let it grow too big.
Stop harassing me based on hunches...
I'll have my proof soon.
My spy...
is going to bring me solid evidence.
Spy?
So,
don't suffer the consequences later,
and confess anything you have to confess.
Hey.
Why are you drinking here?
Hey. Mr. Shim.
My competition.
Let's go for drinks.
Are you this drunk on two cans of beer?
I'm lightweight. Lightweight.
But I can't not drink.
Soo Ji is leaving.
What?
She was fired for not catching X.
Soo Ji.
Please don't go.
Hey. Come back here.
Shoot. I'm all alone again.
Oh my.
What brings you all the way here?
Are you excited...
about leaving the school?
I didn't do my job,
so I must be held accountable.
It's because of me.
Because you couldn't catch X.
It's because of me.
Because I was blinded by love.
The man I like wants to protect the kids.
How can I catch them?
Soo Ji.
It's slightly despicable that he wants...
to protect the kids over me,
but then again,
that's his charm.
I must protect them.
I must protect the kids,
as well as the woman that I like.
I'll find...
the way,
so please give me time.
I'm returning the kiss from last time.
The man is supposed to do this first.
And...
Now, I did it first.
Sa Rang.
Tae Woon worries...
a lot about the kids and the school.
Are you worried only about him?
Seriously, what's with you?
I'm having a tough time because of you lately.
How do I look? Does it look good?
This is so funny.
Why are you so happy?
I was tired of working at a restaurant.
Now, I don't have to move around so much.
I get to see you often, so naturally, I'm happy.
But...
if I work at the school,
won't you be ashamed?
I'd love it.
I'll work...
extra hard for you.
Mom!
Are you getting home now? Why are you so late?
I don't know.
Your eyes.
- Were you crying? - No.
Why would I cry?
Something's up!
No.
Mom.
I'm only going to think about you from now on.
Goodness. What's gotten into you?
All I need is you.
Goodness.
Let's go.
Gosh.
(Principal's Office)
So tell me who X is!
It's up to you whether or not you do,
but if you keep quiet,
your mom will never get her job back!
What is this?
Were you the spy?
How could you do this?
How are you the spy? Why are you doing this to me?
What's it to you whether or not I'm the spy?
You have no interest in me anyway.
Seriously, what's wrong?
Did something happen?
You could tell me.
We...
used to tell each other everything.
You're the one who kept things from me first.
Who X is,
your relationship with Tae Woon...
You kept secrets from me first.
Why are you blaming me?
I did tell you!
I even explained the situation.
So what's wrong with you?
Explained?
You notified me.
"This happened, so you must accept it."
I didn't complain though.
I figured you had a reason and tried to understand.
Do you think it was easy for me?
You don't think I tried to tell you?
It's Tae Woon's secret. I can't just tell people.
What's wrong with you?
He's all that matters, right?
You didn't even think about me.
You got a boyfriend.
You didn't need a stupid friend anymore.
Sa Rang!
So?
You'll expose Tae Woon as being X?
You'll be a spy?
Is this all you amounted to?
Yes.
This is all I amounted to.
So I'll do it.
I'll expose him and be a spy!
This is all you think of me,
so I have no reason not to.
Good thinking.
Your mom is what matters, not loyalty.
You want...
to meet X, right?
I'll let you meet today.
But...
you must make a promise.
You must go alone.
That's the only way X will show.
I knew it.
I finally caught you.
X, you punk.
What?
X?
Aren't you...
X?
Why are you here?
Come on, Mr. Yang.
I told you I'm not X.
I'm on my way home.
How dare you mess with an adult?
You are X, aren't you?
You wanted to meet here.
I did not.
X can't show up because of Eun Ho.
Is it really not you?
Hey. Go . Get going.
Mr. Yang. I know I had something to tell you.
What was it?
I landed in the ER recently...
after eating the school lunch.
To be honest, the food has been...
Hey.
I said to scram.
I'm busy. Go.
No, no.
This is very important to me.
The ER doctor said I had food poisoning.
I think it was the school lunch.
Hey. I said to leave. Leave already.
There's a problem with the lunch...
Get out of here.
Go home and fry chicken.
Help your father.
You're X?
I don't know about X or Z, or whatever.
How dare you try to silence me...
with this petty cash?
It's hot out.
Use this to buy yourself a popsicle.
A popsicle?
Why would I need to silence you?
Are you really...
not X?
I don't know about that.
Sa Rang said I'd find you here.
That's why I came.
That little punk.
You need to get fired to learn your lesson.
Fire me all you want.
I won't keep quiet about what I saw...
back then.
You'd better be prepared.
What did you see?
Do you have proof?
What are you doing?
You wanted to see proof.
I have several more boxes of packagings...
of expired foods.
If you want,
I'll lay them out in front of the school.
Expiration date?
They won't die from eating expired foods.
I can't give them feasts...
with the little money we get.
You have no shame.
Don't you feel any guilt...
after seeing all this?
I do not. Not at all.
Do you have proof that this came...
from our cafeteria? Do you?
You are so stupid.
You're fired.
Don't waste my time and scram.
You kept talking...
about proof,
so I got it for you.
What's this?
Oh my gosh.
How could they feed this to the kids?
If you press this, it'll send the file.
- Okay. - Press this,
and send it to Mr. Yang.
What are you trying to pull?
I was fired, so I'm heading home.
But first, I'll stop by TV stations, newspapers,
the Office of Education, and show them...
this video on my way home. Okay, then.
Come now.
What are you doing?
- Come on. - What?
What's going on here?
This is all you think of me,
so I have no reason not to.
Hey.
You brat.
How could you...
make me into such a jerk?
Do you know how much...
What?
Do you think I was happy?
Do you know how hurt I was?
You're always sharing among yourselves,
and laughing by yourselves.
Why are you crying?
You're the jerk.
That psycho principal.
He threatened you with that?
You should've told me sooner.
I'm livid.
If I told you,
what could we do?
Would Tae Woon confess to being X?
I had no options either.
Even still... You stupid.
I could've helped...
I was bad.
I don't deserve to be your friend.
I don't, but...
can't you forgive me just this once?
No.
If it weren't for you,
I would've reported him.
Even if Tae Woon were found out,
it wouldn't affect his life at all.
But for us,
if we quit,
we have to fear for our survival.
So I convinced myself...
that it was okay to turn him in.
Sa Rang.
But...
what if my mom really gets fired?
That evil principal.
How could he threaten you...
like that?
Don't worry.
We'll do whatever it takes...
to protect your mom.
You sound like you're X or something.
What?
Was that a smile?
It was not.
It was too.
Yes, it was.
You smiled.
Stop it.
Seriously.
Let's...
get revenge.
Go to him and pretend to be his spy.
And...
Minor misunderstandings...
weaken relationships.
But that weakness...
creates an opportunity.
An opportunity for a new encounter,
an opportunity to reaffirm a long-term relationship.
The best way to heal the weakness...
is to hold...
each other's hand firmly.
That looks good.
Are we having a feast?
What is all this?
I'm packing Eun Ho lunch starting tomorrow.
A three-layer lunchbox.
I can't trust the school good. It gets her sick.
How are you so extreme?
There's no mid-way with you.
Will you spend all we have on her lunchbox?
Lunchbox?
That's a good idea.
Mom. Maybe I'll start a lunchbox business.
- Do you want to? - Yes.
Let me hit you with one first.
- Why? - Why you...
What, Mom?
- Go inside. - What?
Get over here!
Goodness.
The school lunch is still the same, right?
Yes.
It is, but at the same time,
not exactly.
You said meat is more "me" than flowers.
They didn't have the flowers you liked.
You were disappointed for nothing.
What is it?
What flower do you like?
What the...
I don't need lunch today. I'm full already.
I told you not to do anything stupid.
X?
This garbage...
- Father, I... - I told you,
that I'd get only you out of it.
But that girl, Eun Ho,
is expelled.
