(Episode 13)
How about we set times for when we start and finish work?
I don't think that's possible in terms of making dramas.
- Let's still do it. - Why?
I'd like my working hours...
to be exact...
so that I can do something sweet...
from the time I get off work until I go back to work.
It'd be great if there's a clear line.
Does something sweet...
have anything to do with me?
Only with you.
We aren't working now, right?
Right.
When he holds my hand,
I somehow become relaxed.
I feel like I can hug him...
and like I won't regret it.
Dating is the process of breaking such trust though.
You're going pessimistic again.
There's a process of restoring the trust too.
That's also part of dating.
So you're thinking of a long-term relationship with him.
I just...
want to do only the sweet things right now,
but something unexpected happened.
I think it was good to go to work in the morning.
It feels nice to walk.
I'm walking too.
- I'm going to the studio. - Okay.
- Did you have breakfast? - No.
I've packed some cherry tomatoes.
Then I'll buy some bread and milk on my way.
What kind of bread do you like?
Plain bread.
Then I'll buy some eggs too.
- See you at the studio. - Bye.
Plain bread, I like it.
Milk, I like it.
Eggs, I like them too.
Delicious protein and calcium.
But if you eat too much, you'll leak out gas.
How? Like this.
At a time like that, turn on the air purifier.
Why are you coming out from there?
Well, I just wanted to play a prank.
It was a bad idea.
And I didn't hear anything.
Don't lie.
Even the neighbours next door would've heard it.
It's nothing. It's not a big deal.
I also farted when I was with you once.
- It's okay. - Don't come.
It's nothing.
It's just a kind of sound. It can't even smell it.
No way. That suddenly starts running?
I told you not to come.
We still have five minutes before the work hour begins.
I'll come back out at 9am. Everything will be fine then.
Well, that was a bit too soon,
but it's something lovers have to go through anyway.
Use this chance to make it natural to fart around each other.
I don't like it.
It's not good to fart out loud around someone you love.
It's nice to hide what you can hide.
I don't like it either. That's what I'm saying.
But I got caught too obviously.
Is it something to be this serious about?
Yes, it is. I seriously hate it.
So why did you fart while putting those eggs in the fridge?
Wait.
Are you sure it was this sound?
Be honest with us.
Maybe it wasn't cute like this,
but kind of dirty.
How in the world did you fart?
It's a bit hard to express...
with my mouth.
I really don't get why you're so serious about this.
She says it's hard to express the sound with her mouth.
That changes things.
It was only the vibration of the sphincteral muscle.
Whether it sounded like this or that...
Right, that was it. How did you know?
What? How did I do it?
No, not this.
Do it again.
Whatever. This is not important at all.
It was a fart. A fart of all things.
So what did Director Son say?
Your fart fairy is something inevitable...
in the process of your digestion.
It needs to be released.
- Shut it. - If you hold it,
it will be accumulated in your bowels.
- Then your belly will be bloated. - I said, shut it.
Part of it will be reabsorbed to your blood...
and released through your breath.
- So what? - Let's be cool about it.
- I don't want to. - Isn't it an obvious lie...
to hide your fart?
Everyone knows about it,
but you hide it, release it in secret,
and get caught sometimes like today which is very embarrassing.
There's no need for all that.
It was an accident today.
It's natural to be upset about an accident!
Okay, okay. Don't get worked up.
It's a perfect example of when people say,
taking one's mistakes out on others.
What did you just say?
Nothing.
He's indeed a man.
He approached the problem rationally.
I mean,
it must've been awkward to go, "Jin Joo, I think your fart's cute."
I don't want it to be settled in an emotional way either.
It can be annoying if it stinks.
Hey, why are you going deep in thought again?
I get that you like...
whatever the other person does when you like them.
But there are still some things that make you uncomfortable.
And you need to be careful about those things.
There are times when you argue fiercely...
and later you can't remember...
what you have been arguing about.
In most of those times, you failed to be careful...
about things that could make the other uncomfortable.
Right. Rationally speaking,
A human being farts eight times a day on average.
Do it in hiding 4 times, and openly 4 times. Okay?
It sounds reasonable at first, but...
Farts are like goalies in soccer.
You can block 7, but if you fail to block 1, you can still lose.
So? Is there a conclusion?
Yes. I erased his memories when we went for a walk...
- after dinner. - What?
Let's erase that memory and start over.
Is that necessary? I already heard and smelled it.
Stop saying that.
Why don't we do this? Whenever we feel it coming,
let's hug each other and let it out warmly.
Stop being ridiculous.
I don't want you to wonder if I'm about to fart every time I hug you.
You're right.
Fine.
Let's erase that memory and start over.
But...
Seriously.
- Hey. It's gone. - What is?
- Your fart. - Not yet.
That hurts.
- Right in the temple. - Does this actually work...
at erasing memories?
The day we fought and you were sick,
You went to the bathroom and made a sound
- Are you writing a song? - Yes. I was bored.
- You have the title already? - I watched a short film recently,
and it really inspired me. It's the title of the movie.
What was the movie that it even inspired you?
The husband's business failed...
and fought with the wife the day before they moved.
He takes a dump in the bathroom and they make up while smelling it.
What? Was it a toilet humour movie?
No. It's a beautiful love story.
What's wrong with the lyrics?
"The day we fought and you were sick,"
"You went to the bathroom and made a sound. Boom, boom."
- What is this? - What? Why?
It's so cute.
It reminded me of my ex.
We had a big fight because I let out a fart.
- Was that ex... - Yes.
Him.
I see. I guess he really hated that.
He hated it like you wouldn't believe.
It doesn't matter anymore.
I want to send him a message with this song.
I hope the smell will fade away...
Let me hear it once you finish it.
Take it easy. You'll get sick.
I leave at quitting time on the dot. Don't worry.
And I don't eat here much.
I end up throwing most of the food away, so don't fill the fridge.
Stop ordering in. All you need to do is make rice.
Also, Director Son and I decided to date seriously.
What?
What do you mean?
During work, he's the director. After work, he's my boyfriend.
How could you say something so huge like it's no big deal?
Why is it so huge?
It had to have been a difficult decision on his part.
What does he see in you?
I think he's into looks.
- That can't be possible. - Yes, it can.
Bring him home.
I feel bad. I should at least feed him.
- You feel bad? - Yes.
No, I don't fart.
Exactly. Why not? For all these years?
I don't know.
It just happened naturally.
I don't remember why that became...
natural.
You never farted even once?
It doesn't have to make a sound.
Then Dad never heard you fart...
his entire life.
That's right.
But Dad farts.
He does. But we're from a different generation.
Do it.
- What? - Fart in front of Dad.
What is it?
You seem stressed out.
I'm too obvious when I'm stressed, aren't I?
You are. But you look the same whether you're stressed...
about little things or big things.
What do you mean?
For example, whether you're deciding what to eat,
or working on a multi-million dollar budget,
you look the same.
- I do? - Yes.
You love every concern equally without discriminating.
You're an equal opportunity stresser.
I don't like discrimination,
but that's a bit odd.
What's your concern this time? As your subordinate,
I'd like to resolve it for you at least once.
The casting matter.
Chun Yi Seul is stalling so much.
Whether or not she works on our project,
I wish she'd give us an answer quickly.
We can't make progress with anything else.
Right. Why can't she give us an answer quickly?
Why isn't something this important not an established etiquette?
How sad.
What are you doing?
I want to resolve it for you, but there's nothing I can do.
I want to cast a spell at least.
Call.
Call and say you'll do it.
It's a director that works with Chun Yi Seul. Hold on.
Hello, sir. How are you?
Yes.
Yes. Okay, then. I will...
give you a call back shortly.
Okay.
Yes. Okay, got it.
Thank you. Okay.
I'm so happy.
Ms. Lee. Chun Yi Seul's people called.
Finally. What did they say?
They want to meet with the director and writer.
That's pretty much a yes, right?
We'll meet with them and get her to sign.
Call Director Son and schedule a meeting as soon as possible.
Okay. Also, what should I say about Lee So Min?
Her agency CEO called himself,
so ask Director Son for his opinion,
and if he says yes, schedule a meeting.
Okay.
Call.
(Ha Yoon)
Yes. That's great.
Set it up for whatever time works and let me know.
Okay.
I think we're going to get Chun Yi Seul.
Okay.
Why do you look like we couldn't get her?
- I'm just nervous. - About what?
How many difficulties do you face on average to make a drama?
- Big difficulties or small? - Combined.
- 3,600. - Exactly.
But I feel like this one went kind of smoothly.
Why do we get nervous if things go smoothly?
Dramas are like dating.
If there are no difficulties, it isn't fun.
If it isn't fun, it gets cancelled early.
That's why I'm nervous. In case it'll all happen at once.
So what? Just hang on.
What is a director's job? It's hanging on.
Not dying, and hanging on. Just hang on as you always do,
be it the drama or dating.
Look at me. I'm hanging on so well.
You couldn't reach her yesterday, either?
No.
I couldn't reach her after 10pm. She apparently fell asleep.
I guess I should believe her.
Don't look at me like that. I'm okay.
So what if I wasn't able to reach her for 16 hours?
It's no fun when there's no crisis.
Just hang on. That's all you need to do.
Why do you look so scrawny?
It's okay. I'm happy.
Bum Soo, I hope you're happy too.
Why do you look so scrawny?
Is he not here because he's getting ready for the shoot?
I think it's because of you.
He probably doesn't want to see you.
Just hang on.
If you hang on, it'll all work out.
Okay, then.
Please tell us what you think about So Min...
as a woman, person, and an actress.
She's honest.
Shouldn't you use honorifics for the interview?
I was just talking to myself.
Oh, I see.
Next question.
Is that it?
She's honest? That's all you have to say?
Yes.
When did you first work with So Min?
I think...
it was in spring.
Does he only know how to swear or give short answers?
Is he doing this on purpose?
- He drinks cassia seed tea. - Cassia seed?
- What about that? - Do you know why he drinks that?
I'm working right now.
This isn't
alcohol. It's cassia seed tea.
Do you know...
why I drink cassia seed tea?
No, I don't. Well...
Because it's good for your eyes?
It's savoury.
It's savoury. That's why.
So what?
Don't cassia seeds taste bitter?
I don't think it's savoury. Let me take a look.
I can judge a person's character just by looking at his or her eyes.
Let me see.
He's a successful commercial director.
Why is his studio so shabby?
I don't know. I'm pretty sure he earns a lot of money.
He doesn't seem humble. I'm not quite sure.
I'm sure he spends it on gambling. He looks like that type of guy.
- How old is he? - He's 34.
- His shoulders seem pretty broad. - They are.
- What about his height? - He's tall.
I can instantly tell what type of guy he is.
- Your ideal type? - Yes.
He's so good-looking.
If he says it's savoury, then it's savoury.
And it's fine as long as he doesn't gamble with my money.
Women like you are the reason why...
bad guys don't bother to fix their bad behaviours.
Let's get to work.
"She just arrives at the hair salon."
"She just gets out of the van."
- You're here. - Hello.
- Hi. - "She just says hello."
"She just gets her hair done."
What?
I've been thinking...
Don't you think this documentary will end up being really boring?
Why? Are you worried?
Everything I do is just so predictable.
The stuff I think about and the stuff I do.
The only place I ever go to is the hair salon.
I mean, this isn't a beauty program.
You don't need to think about how fun it's going to be.
I know what you're going to say.
But I'm all about being commercial.
I don't intend to deny that.
So what? What do you want to do?
Maybe I could talk about Min Joon...
whenever it's just the two of us.
And you could record how much we love each other on camera.
- What? - What do you think about that?
- What are you getting at? - Isn't it obvious?
I'm saying you could add my love story to the documentary.
There needs to be a love story to get people hooked on the show.
Is that really okay, though?
No, it's not. But who knows?
I might get married to Min Joon before the documentary is revealed.
Then it'll be okay.
My gosh.
You must like him a lot.
I wouldn't have even started if I didn't like him that much.
Then here's my first official question regarding Min Joon.
This is so exciting. Hurry up and ask me.
Do you guys fart in front of each other?
What? That's your first question?
Well...
That's very intense.
But we don't really do that.
What?
Because I don't fart.
- You don't fart? - Yes.
I didn't expect you to say that.
I'm serious.
I'm sorry. I already went to the bathroom.
But I can't control the gas that comes out of me.
Please be more careful when we're in the car.
Okay, I'm sorry.
He intercepts your farts?
Did he just do that for work, or did he do it out of love?
Out of love.
That's an impressive kind of love.
As long as I'm with him, I won't have to fart my entire life.
Sure.
Then where are you going to go...
after you doll yourself up today?
I'm going to fight with the CEO.
You came to the hair salon so you could fight with the CEO?
I need to let him see...
how incredible I am.
You're incredible. I know that.
Of course, I know that.
Then why is this happening? I'm only 32.
Why do I keep getting casting offers for mom roles?
What can I do? They just want you for that part.
Do you think I go around asking them to cast you as a mother?
I didn't even get offered as a mother with a baby.
My character has a kid who's in middle school.
The drama is about school violence.
Do you want me to ask the writer to change the theme...
and make it into a story about kindergarten violence?
Why do I need to be a mom who has a middle school kid?
Then do you want to be the middle school kid?
Why not?
I look really young.
Seon Mi, you're a great actress.
You really are. But you don't look young.
Okay, fine. I'll tell them that you can't take the role.
How can you say that and call yourself the CEO?
Are you going to keep talking to the CEO that way?
Hi, Seon Mi.
Hey, So Min. Go ahead.
I told you to call them in a few days.
If you accept a supporting role right away,
what would they think of me?
There are tons of new actresses willing to get that role.
What would you think of me if I lose that role too?
No way. You think I'm no better than those newbies?
It's not what I mean. We don't want someone else to sign the contract.
- Then I'll take the main role. - Chun Yi Seul is taking that role.
You should make it happen so I can take the role.
I'm not the director. I don't own that drama.
Can't you do that much?
So Min, you're a good actress.
But I can't buy a drama for you.
Don't do it. Don't you do it.
How can you say that and call yourself the CEO?
Are you going to keep talking to the CEO that way?
I'm glad I gave up...
on being the CEO of a management agency.
I think...
this CEO is especially unlucky.
It's better to yell and fight.
Some actors or actresses...
are all nice and say everything is okay,
but later move agencies without any words.
They text me goodbye.
I didn't know there were such people.
I've been in this industry for 20 years.
This is nothing.
My insides are all tainted even when I don't smoke.
This is nothing. How should I put it?
Well... Darn it.
It's lonely.
Are you crying?
The shooting is around the corner. You shouldn't be doing this.
You're the one who called me out.
You come out every time I do that.
Still...
Hwan Dong is doing well with the preparations, right?
He wants everything perfect. That's the problem.
It might demotivate him one day. Give him advice and stuff.
Kids these days hate advice.
They don't respect people in our generation.
My assistant writers respect me.
What a sad joke.
How lonely.
Indeed.
You have two dogs.
Oh, right. I need to feed them. I'm off, bye.
- How much? - 54 dollars.
- Did you include the soda? - Yes.
It isn't 2 bottles of soju. It's 3. You took a bottle a while ago.
Oh, right. It's 58 dollars.
Right, you need to be thorough. Bye.
Goodness, that jerk...
Ms. Jung?
Hey, Mr. So.
Are you alone?
My company just left.
I'm alone too. May I sit down?
Sure.
Why are you alone?
No one is willing to spend time with me.
Well, you need to be good at spending time alone.
It's not a matter of being good or not. I'm alone anyway.
Thank you.
By the way, do you have no appetite?
Yes, why?
Why don't you get old? You're like those who neither eat nor age.
Oh, come on.
My face is all wrinkly.
A rabbit is still a rabbit even with wrinkles.
- A rabbit? - You look like a rabbit.
What? Mr. Seong.
So he's the one who just left.
I went to the toilet.
Goodness, it's been years.
- But why have you gotten so old? - How exactly?
In general. You should be a CEO now.
By the way, you're getting more handsome...
the older you get.
You look like Antonio Banderas.
From "The Mask of Zorro".
Zorro is everywhere.
In front of you, Rabbit.
Are you crazy?
Are you insane?
Hey, Zorro.
Come catch me.
My beautiful villain, Montero Rabbit.
And I'm going to run away like this.
Goodness, I should hide.
That doesn't suit you.
You're too beautiful for it.
There hasn't been an animal like this before.
Is it an elk or a rabbit?
No elk.
Is it a deer or a rabbit?
Yes, Rabbit.
Like this.
What do you think? Is it fun?
I'll do my best until the end.
So it's not fun.
No, not exactly.
I feel like something is missing,
but I don't know what it is.
It might be because you're doing such a great job...
that nothing is missing and you don't have to do anything more.
No way.
It can't be because of perfection.
I felt so sometimes when I saw you work.
Everything will be fine because you're good.
Am I...
doing well?
Why won't you trust me?
You used to trust me easily.
Where is Eun Jung?
She's editing.
What about Jin Joo?
She went to her room with a beer.
What? Is she doing a video call or something?
Oh, really?
I see. In that case,
I should do it too.
- In Gook, are you going to bed? - Let's go to bed.
Gosh...
Aren't you excited?
It's your first time to meet with a cast member.
Not really.
But she will be prettier than me, right?
Your can is empty.
What are you gulping when it's empty?
How refreshing.
Once we settle with Chun Yi Seul, things will get busy.
She'll be prettier than me, right?
Do you seriously want to die?
- Did you have a good night? - Yes.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Hello. - It's that room.
- Is everyone here? - Yes.
- Hello. - Hello.
This is the director, and this is the writer.
- Hello. - Hello.
As you already know, this is Ms. Chun Yi Seul.
- Hello. - It's good to see you. Let's sit.
We're not late, are we?
No, we came early.
I liked how it's sort of like a sitcom.
I mean that in a good way.
That's the angle we took with it.
I'm glad you could see that.
The character is very fun...
and so are the lines,
but I'm a bit worried. I feel like...
I don't have enough pain for a main character.
I'm afraid I'll seem immature.
Well, the main character's goals are very clear.
As the writer, there is an outward goal...
and an internal goal she's striving to achieve through that.
As a person who brings that about,
she introduces the pain of the surrounding characters,
understands them and grows through that process.
I think that would move the viewers in the end in a simpler manner.
- That's right. Director Son. - Yes?
My left side is my good side.
Sorry? That was out of the blue.
It came to me out of the blue.
It came to you out of the blue.
Your left side is your good side.
Hello.
Let me introduce you.
- Our director of photography. - Hello.
- Our lighting director. - Hello.
- Isn't it hot? - It is.
Thank you for coming.
Should we go to the conference room?
No, we just came to say hi.
Let's go to the conference, I mean, lounge.
- Sure, let's do that. - Shall we?
This is our reference.
It's what I mentioned before.
This.
This. The way the camera goes under the truck...
with him and follows him.
- That. - Well...
There you go again.
I told you, they specially built this equipment themselves.
We can build one too.
This movie's budget was 200 million dollars.
Why are you showing me a Hollywood movie?
Why are you showing me an action flick when we're filming a romcom?
What's the budget for the drama? How much is it?
Sorry?
It's a bit less than this movie.
A bit? Like...
190 million dollars less?
A little bit less than that.
We can't do this.
Why not? What are our people known for?
What do you mean?
We're known for our delivery food, I guess.
That's right.
Darn it. I'm hungry.
Seriously.
Park Seo Joon, Jang Ki Yong, Nam Joo Hyuk, Park Bo Gum,
Jung Hae In, Yang Se Jong.
We can cast those actors?
No, we can't.
Not only are they booked,
but also, the girl is the main character in our drama.
So why are you naming them?
I'm just saying.
Why are you just saying that?
Jung Woo Sung, Gang Dong Won, Ha Jung Woo, Lee Byung Hun?
- We can cast them? - No.
Why are you naming people we can't get?
If you say these names out loud before you start,
it brings up morale.
What are you babbling about?
Gong Yoo?
- Okay, Gong Myoung. - I love him.
- That would be awesome. - My head hurts.
Stop. First, this is the concept for Joo Yeon's room.
This is the reference.
Give us your thoughts, and we'll make the revisions.
I don't think you should revise it,
but start over from scratch.
It's just a reference.
No. I think we should drop that entire idea.
Joo Yeon is flaky.
Do you think that matches her?
Would someone with that much personality...
choose such generic furniture?
That's in any interior design magazine.
It's just a reference, so...
Why do you keep saying it's just a reference?
Well, I'm saying we will just refer to it.
I'm not saying I don't know what the word means.
What is this?
Psychological treatment.
Research on psychological treatments.
- You should summarize it. - That is the summary.
Okay.
I'll be a doctor once I finish reading these.
There's a greater chance you'll become a mental patient.
Thanks. You worked hard.
This is fun.
Let's move this first.
Move it.
Watch carefully. This is Dong Woo and Kyung Jae's fight scene.
We'd normally show this to you in a video,
but I want to get your okay first. This is just to give you an idea.
Okay, watch.
I'm Kyung Jae, and he's Dong Woo.
Okay. Come at me. Stop.
Act as you start.
- You saw the script. - Okay.
Again.
- You jerk. - That's right.
He comes and I flip him.
But Kyung Jae flips again and Dong Woo flips over.
And here... Hold on.
- Hey, move your arm in. - Okay.
I'll pull at it.
Okay. I won't let go!
And then Dong Woo gets out of it.
Kyung Jae grabs him...
and does the triangle...
Darn it. Bend down.
Okay. The triangle choke.
Okay. This is the fight sequence.
The triangle choke is the point.
- Sir. - Yes?
- Look. - Yes?
Kyung Jae and Dong Woo are drama directors.
Why would they suddenly do Jiu-Jitsu?
A lot of people do Jiu-Jitsu nowadays.
Why are you doing this?
How could they do the triangle choke?
I did think it may be a bit much.
- I said that, didn't I? - Yes.
So we prepared another sequence as well.
- Bring it. - Yes, sir.
Watch.
Ready?
Head.
Head then stomach!
Okay. This would be the sequence if they learned kendo.
The point here is the quick hit to the stomach.
It's super quick.
At least it isn't archery or shooting...
- Watch again. Come here. - Okay.
Watch again.
- Are you okay? - Didn't you read the script?
What is this?
Am I dreaming? What's going on?
Director Son,
I'm sorry to say this when I know you have a headache,
but you need to choose a music director.
Okay.
I think Kim Tae Seong won't be available, so...
Then would you please put together a list for me?
Okay.
By the way, what do you think about Director Jun Jo Moon Soo?
His recent works received a lot of praise.
Director Jun Jo Moon Soo? From Plan D Studio?
Yes, that's correct.
Okay, I'll think about it.
Okay.
It's finally here.
The final edit of episode seven is finally out.
I feel like it takes longer to edit.
Haruki is amazing.
Who? Haruki?
- Why suddenly... - A strict daily routine.
He listens to classical music in the morning,
rock music in the afternoon while running,
and always writes a predetermined volume per day.
He enjoys a beer after finishing work...
while listening to jazz music.
Before going to bed, he chooses the classical piece...
to listen to the next day.
You need to take care of yourself in order to perform...
on the best stage possible.
That sounds nice, but I don't get your point.
I like music too, I have the will to exercise,
and I know how to enjoy a beer.
So I tried following a daily routine like Haruki.
- Congratulations. - But it fell apart in two days.
I drank way too much beer.
I enjoyed a beer too much,
that I had another and another.
Having a daily routine is incredibly difficult.
So I made a resolution...
not to make it onto the best stage possible.
- And to just do good enough. - That required a resolution?
This is my "good enough".
Don't expect the best.
I can't wait.
A script that's "good enough".
I look forward to reading it.
Do you know something?
A good script doesn't require much to become a fun drama.
This script won't require much. It's going to be fun.
My headache's gone.
Okay, then. Let's go eat.
Where should we take you? Let's have something delicious.
It's 6pm. I'm done with work now. We'll eat separately.
Sure. Go ahead.
- Good work, everyone. - Good work.
Goodbye.
My gosh, it's hot already.
- What can I help you with? - Please turn on the AC.
The AC is now turned on.
Thank you.
Ms. Lim and Director Son are really impressive.
Yes, they really are.
They both seem like they'd be a little clumsy.
But I noticed that both their work and love life are very...
How should I put it? It's very sturdy.
Exactly. It could be uncomfortable to work with each other.
But once they both finish contemplating what to do,
they decided to be true to their feelings.
They take responsibility for their decisions,
and they don't get swayed.
And that's why they don't need to hide anything.
I'm impressed because that seems to be their way...
of respecting each other.
But do you know what's even more impressive?
They don't really know that what they're doing...
is something really impressive.
No wonder they don't seem so authoritative.
In a way, they're very pure.
But if something's pure,
doesn't it break easily?
Okay.
- Why don't you reconsider? - Pardon?
He just said...
- you should reconsider. - Oh, okay.
I know we're working together right now,
but I'll make sure our relationship doesn't get in the way.
How do we look?
You guys look like a perpetrator and a victim.
- Am I the perpetrator? - Of course.
- Thanks. - I'll be the perpetrator.
I'll be the perpetrator of love.
Stop it.
Thank you so much for being so welcoming.
It seems like Jin Joo would've done a lot of things...
to get herself into trouble when she was young.
But you don't seem like the type who would've punished her.
Her mom beat her up. She beat her up a lot.
Then I guess those beatings didn't help her come to her senses.
When she was nine years old, she packed her bag...
after she got a really good beating from her mom.
So I asked her if she's going to run away from home.
And she said, "Yes, I can't take this anymore."
So I said, "It's cold outside. Wouldn't it be better...
to be more obedient so you could just stay at home?"
And that's when she told me she's not sure if she can be obedient.
What a clear-cut answer.
So did she run away from home? At nine years old?
Yes, she came back in two
hours. Then she got another beating.
I can already imagine the look on her face. This is fun.
I guess she was the type who never listened.
- Mom. - Yes?
- Did you try it? - What?
- That? - Yes.
Yes, I did. I tried my best.
You didn't have to try your best.
I mean, he wasn't reacting...
to any of my farts.
And I know it sounds weird,
but it kind of upset me.
Later on, it became a matter of pride so I even forced a fart.
You even forced yourself to fart?
If I farted that much,
I figured he'd ask me if I'm not feeling well,
or if I'm angry about something.
You're overthinking it.
Yes, but I wasn't the one overthinking.
- It was your dad. - What?
After a few days of constantly farting in front of him...
- Hey, you're home. - Hey.
He can't even drink, but he came home drunk one day.
Here.
What's this?
(Comprehensive Medical Checkup)
I made an appointment.
We promised...
to go to the countryside and live by ourselves...
once our daughters grow up and get married.
But what would be the point of going to the countryside...
if you're not there with me?
I'll be there all by myself.
It will all be meaningless...
if you're not there with me.
Apparently, your dad's friends' wife...
recently died from cancer.
She kept farting, and her farts smelled really bad.
But he was just mean to her because he didn't know she was sick.
My gosh, I didn't know a few farts would make me...
talk about death with your father.
After all, that's the way it is for people my age.
Hey, just be with him if you're going to see him for a long time.
All right, I'll start singing.
The day we fought and you were sick,
You went to the bathroom and made a sound
Boom, boom, boom
Everything was nice
But why did you hate it so much that day?
Boom, boom, boom
It smelled
But it wasn't your fault
Gosh, I ate so much.
Should we walk one more round?
Sure.
What's wrong with you?
Well?
Give me a break.
I get it.
I think I know, but give me a break.
The air is so nice.
Yes, it's nice.
Then let's not do it in a row.
That's a bit too much.
It kind of feels offensive.
- Okay. - Thank you.
Me too.
I'm safe now.
I saved your life.
I owe you my life. I really appreciate it.
It smelled
But it wasn't your fault
It was going to fade away anyway
So I'm sorry I hurt your feelings
It smelled
But it's okay
Goodness, I'm not late.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
Hello, Ms. Lim. Everyone is here.
Oh, except for Director Son.
I'll bring in coffee, so what would you like?
I'll have coffee too.
Okay. It's this way.
It's been a long time.
Hi.
Or... Hello.
Hi is good.
Hi.
(When he holds my hand, I somehow become relaxed.)
(I feel like I can rely on him,)
(like I can hug him,)
(and like I won't regret it.)
(Dating is the process of breaking such trust though.)
(You must like him a lot.)
(I wouldn't have even started if I didn't like him that much.)
(So what? Just hang on.)
(Just hang on as you always do,)
(be it the drama or dating.)
(Look at me. I'm hanging on so well.)
(I'll be the perpetrator.)
(I'll be the perpetrator of love.)
(Be Melodramatic)
A writer shouldn't go out and have a drink with a man.
Don't tell me you're jealous.
I'm the chief producer of this drama.
I better keep my writer safe.
What happened here?
Oh, it happened while shaving.
Muster up your courage at a time like that.
Who bought this for you?
You don't use an electric shaver because your beard gets tangled.
Let's go play.
- Let's go to a faraway place. - Great idea.
Let's go to somewhere farther away next time.
We've thought and felt a lot of things.
It's time to find something we wanted to find on our trip.
I've already found it.
Let me give you one important mission.
What does he do here?
Like community service that criminals do?
I saved this woman.
It was so righteous of me.
Are you worried you might be seen as you're trying to get over him...
and that he might be sad?
- Do you want me to hug you? - Why would you hug me?
Because it's hard.
