ONE DAY, WE WANTED TO KNOW
[narrator] One day, we wanted to know how men and women in the city date.
[whirs]
To satisfy our curiosity,
we decided to follow several men and women in the city.
Are you… shooting?
You… didn't say I'd be on camera.
[chuckles]
Hi, how are you?
You should have said earlier that you were going to have a camera.
I would have dressed up a little bit. [sighs]
- [exhales] - [chair clonks]
Ah.
Can this help promote my agency?
[indistinct chatter]
One minute.
Hi. Hello.
Ah.
[Seon-yeong] So I just talk?
There's no script?
Oh.
Hello. [chuckles]
So am I looking at you?
[Kyeong-jun] Or at the other camera?
The camera, I'll look into that.
Gosh, this is awkward. [chuckles]
[clears throat]
Introduce myself?
Uh… [clears throat]
Hello. My name is Park Jae-won…
Ah. Don't be formal?
[sharp inhale] Hmm.
Hey there. My name is I'm Park Jae-won.
And I'm an architect. I'm, uh, 32 years old.
Oh, this… awkward. [chuckles]
[sighs]
It's really nice to meet you.
I'm Lee Eun-o and I'm 29.
O3 MARKETING AGENCY
I'm a marketer.
A pretty marketer.
I'm Choi Kyeong-jun. I'm 29.
My father and uncle established a company together.
Mm, I'm an architect there.
I'm Suh Rin-i. And I'm 29.
My job?
I do many things.
I'm into so many interests, so…
it's impossible to choose one.
MULTIPLE JOBS? PART-TIMER? UNEMPLOYED? OUT OF WORK?
Good? Do it again? [chuckles]
I'm so shy. [giggles]
I'm a high school gym teacher. I'm 30 and my name is Oh Seon-yeong.
[exhales]
I love Seoul. And my life is fun, too.
My nickname's Serial Dater 'cause I date a lot.
So will you be adding captions to this?
Where will I be able to see this? On TV? Movies?
I write novels. A novelist.
Name's Kang Geon. I'm 29.
[techno music]
[narrator] We won't intervene in their lives.
[clacking]
When we think it's necessary,
we will share their interviews with the others
or edit them to make this entertaining.
Mm.
[exhales] I see. So…
- [cup clinks] - [lips smack]
…you may share what I said in my interviews, but…
they won't know who said it. Is that right?
What's that? They'll know?
So we'll know who's participating in this show?
Well, is that a yes or a no?
Fifty people? I might know someone.
Yeah. Got it, got it.
Uh, so next time, I could just use this?
But we're not seeing each other, right?
If I do this, what do I get from you?
Are you sure?
Hold on, you're not gonna give me anything for this?
- No can do? No, thanks. - [chair creaks]
Wait, that means… someone's ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend could be in this.
There's no one from my school, right?
[digital whoosh]
[narrator] They promised to treat their cameras as their friends
- and tell only the truth. - [paper rustles]
But some things made us wonder if they were really telling us the truth.
Wanna know what? How I date?
I'm cool and gentle.
I'm not clingy. I'm cool.
Hmm? Hmm.
I'm true to myself when I date…
and when I break up as well.
- [chimes] - [squishes]
I'm passionate.
I typically fall in and out of love pretty fast.
If I have a break up, I get over it.
[squishes]
A girl hit me in the street.
What's even the point of getting laid? Jeez.
Slate? What? Clap?
This? Clap?
One, two, three. [claps]
[chuckles]
What is this?
I don't really like games.
Overall, I think I'm a pretty good guy.
Before my current boyfriend, I dated around…
five men. I mean, three.
- Ah. Uh, let me do that again. - [claps]
WE'LL LET YOU BE THE JUDGE
[narrator] We'll let all of you be the judge.

LOVESTRUCK IN THE CITY
DO YOU KNOW WHICH MAN OR WOMAN YOU ARE COMPATIBLE WITH?
[narrator] Do you know who you're compatible with?
- [server] Bye. Have a nice day. - Men I'm compatible with?
Women I can have fun with.
Men that I can talk to?
Hmm? Talking isn't everything.
A physical connection.
Are you asking what I think you're asking?
[whistle blows]
Why is everyone acting so innocent?
Oh. That's what you wanna know?
- [buzzing] - [hand brake cranks]
Why can't you say it? Just be straightforward. You know, bang.
I got it. Fine.
What?
[giggles] Cut it.
[chair creaks]
Have a good day.
You're talking about intimacy.
I know by the smell. I mean…
it's all about pheromones.
Well, I think it depends on the man, right?
Wow, really? He's giving himself too much credit.
Usually, I take the lead.
Uh-huh. I'm not so sure about that.
Fine. I'll be honest. There was one time I had to follow the girl's lead.
One time, okay?
I doubt it was just once.
Dating? I don't think it's a big deal.
No. I think it's important.
Dating really changed me.
I've dated many women.
Hmm. [bangs the table]
I loved it every time.
Uh… Mm…
What did the girls say about this?
[leaves rustling]
About men? They're all the same, you know that.
There is someone I can't forget.
There is someone.
It was a year ago.
[waves crashing]
[water churning]
[tranquil music plays]
[Jae-won] She was the only one I could see.
It felt like there were only two of us in this world.
[water churning]
I felt complete.
[waves crashing]
[Eun-o] I felt a spark every time our fingers met.
[waves rushing]
[light music plays]
[water splashes]
I thought it was love then.
[sighs]
I'll remember him forever.
You don't end things if that's how you feel.
That's right. It's my fault.
No, it's my fault.
No, it was me, okay?
It's true. She screwed up.
Right. [sighs]
I won't make excuses.
[tranquil music plays]
[Jae-won] Of all people, why me?
Why did it have to be me?
Well, we met at a point when I needed someone like him.
[gentle string music plays]
[Jae-won] I wish I had never met her.
[Eun-o] Thanks to him,
I've become who I am now.
- [object thuds] - I was a fool.
[Eun-o] That fool…
His love was magical.

Name, Park Jae-won, 182 centimeters tall.
What else? Tell me.
[Ra-ra] He's handsome. He could pass for a model.
[chuckles]
Which exit will he be at?
Send me his phone number. There are so many people here.
Oh, screw it.
I'll park my car at the lot.
[upbeat music plays]

HANDSOME
[sighs]
- [Ra-ra] Did you find him? - Hey, I'm hanging up.
- [Eun-o] That better be him. - [seat belt clicks]
Are you Park Jae-won from Seoul?
- Uh, yes. Hello. - Hello.
You're here to get me?
[door clanks open]
- [Eun-o] Hi. - [Jae-won] Hi.
- Is that all you've brought? - Yes.
- I'll take it. I got it. I got it. - No. I'll do it. No. I…
- Okay? - Uh…

- [Eun-o] Put on your seat belt. - [Jae-won] Okay.
What about Ra-ra?
Ah, she's busy with her restaurant.
Ra-ra's Ramen.
"We serve all kinds of ramen." That's what their motto is.
- Ah. I know that. - [hand brake cranks]
She had one in Jejudo Island, too.
- Yeah. - [engine revs]

What kind of women am I compatible with?
I'm…
drawn to strange women.
They're a good fit for me.

[romantic music plays]
[in English] [Jae-won] That's how I fell in love.
[sharp inhale] I'm attracted to intense women.
Same here. It's fun to follow their lead.
I do everything they say.
- [screams] - [controller clacks]
I like women who are bubbly and cheerful.
[tongue clicks] And yeah, she was pretty feisty.
Yeah, that's how she was.
She had just the right amount of feistiness.
I was curious about you.
[nervous inhale] Really? You were?
It's funny, you know.
You rented our camper trailer without a license.
I actually moved the trailer you rented to a really nice spot near the beach.
It's a really good one, by the way.
I've had two wishes ever since I was 20.
Hmm. My first wish was to live for a month in a camper.
And the second wish was to do nothing but surf for a month.
- You must be a fan of surfing. - Mm-hmm. Big fan.
But the camper. You can't tow it, hon.
It's just a place to sleep, "hon". You know what I mean?
Why are you speaking like that?
You started first, didn't you?
That's how it is at Ra-ra's.
Ah, I see. That's how she still rolls.
- Casual is good for me. - [chuckles]
So do you work there?
- I work there part-time when I'm here. - Okay.
So how are you getting around?
I'll walk. I like walking and riding bikes and motorcycles.
This makes no sense. You rented a trailer and it's just gonna sit there?
Well, I'm gonna be sleeping in there.
Yeah, but a place like that would look beautiful in the rain.
[light music plays]
[Eun-o] Wouldn't it be nice to drink coffee and listen to the rain over there?
[clicks tongue]
- Well, it probably would. - Right? I'll make a U-turn.
Now? Hold on. Hold on.
[Jae-won] Oh, where are you going all of a sudden?
To drink coffee in a camper on a stormy day.
- What? - To start, do your driver's test.
What? A test?
- Ms. Kim Se-jeong. - [Se-jeong] Yes?
You scored 68 points. You failed. Come out.
- [Se-jeong] What? - Come out.
DRIVER'S LICENSE TEST
- [announcer] …you may begin. - All right.
[seat belt clicks]
- Get out. - What?
[announcer] Number 42, you may begin.
What?
Ta-da!
[chuckles]
[wind blows]
[Jae-won] I should've known then that she was crazy.
[elevator dings]
Honestly, that's what made her fun.
[chuckles] So that makes me crazy, too.
Uh, you know, there are certain things you only realize later.
It's like suddenly realizing that you've been conned by someone
after you were conned.
[sighs]
[scanner beeps]
I now understand how some people can be just blind.
- Hey. Stop it. - My cousin was--
- My cousin was like that. - Hey. Come on now, stop.
- [Han-gyeol] Hello. - [laughs]
Hi, Han-gyeol. Wait a minute.
What are you doing?
- Mr. Park told me to throw it out. - Mm-hmm. I'm changing the layout.
Are you crazy? The CEO has approved it.
The client's on board, too. Why?
I don't like the location of the stairs connecting the first and second floors.
It's been changed three times. What do you want now?
I'm not sure.
You got a plan?
You don't.
Jeez.
[Kyeong-jun] Han-gyeol! Bring that back!
Don't throw it out. No!
[tranquil music plays]
[bag thuds]
[sighs]
[Jae-won] Whenever I see a camper trailer, I think of her.
Register for the test today and take the exam tomorrow.
It only took a day for me to get mine here.
- You don't have a photo for this. - Of course, I don't.
- Go. - Huh?
- [Eun-o] Hurry. Go inside. - Oh. Come on.
- All right. Okay. - Nobody looks good in these photos. Huh?
[machine whirs, beeps]
- Ready. Say, "Braised kimchi." - "Braised kimchi"? What?
- [machine beeping] - Oh, shit. Mm. Braised kimchi…
ROAD TEST
[percussive music plays]
[sighs]
[scissors snips, clacks]
Mm.
[sharp inhale] It looks just like you.
- It does? - Mm-hmm.
Really?
Ugh. This photo.
- I look awful in this. - Put it on.
Ugh, I hate it.

All right.

I knew that she and I would be compatible.

Sorry. I laughed too loudly.

must realize…
that's too good to be true.
Let's say you wake up, then what happens if you don't get together?
You'll be alone forever.
No, no. I'm not alone. I'm not alone.

Hmm…
I would still…
If I were to meet him again…
I'd fall in love again.
Yeah, I think I would.
