HOW IS YOUR LOVE?
DILIGENCE AND PERSISTENCE
[narrator] How do you initiate sex with a new partner?
Mm…
I mean, that's kind of a private question. [chuckles]
Um… It's a bit… embarrassing. [giggles]
Whoa. It's way too soon for that kind of question.
Are you talking like, like, uh, uh…
So, like, when I first have sex with a new girl?
[sharp inhale] When I have sex with a new guy? Hmm…
[focused exhale]
I always start with one-night stands, preferably when I'm drunk.
[exhales]
It's been so long, I have no idea.
Hmm? Regrets when I wake up?
Nope. Why would I have regrets?
- [spread squishes] - Let… let me think about it a minute.
How do other people initiate it?
Well, don't people start by… kissing each other?
A kiss is way too vague.
- First, you both need to agree to it. - How do you agree to it?
It's not like a business negotiation or something.
Mm. It's just setting the right time.
- [Seon-yeong yells] - [wood breaks]
- [hard bump] - [grunts]
But not everyone feels the same way about it.
I know. It's a touchy subject.
Like we might not feel the same as each other.
You can't have sex without even kissing.
- [chopsticks clack] - Of course, you wouldn't.
[exhales] I hate complicated stuff.
If I wanna get it on, I just have to look at him and give him the signal.
[electricity zaps]
If he gets the message, we go to town. If not, well, then, we don't.
[Geon] I haven't had sex in over two years.
But I'm still kicking. It won't kill you.
I gotta say, I'm a big fan of kissing.
Yeah. Me as well.
Sex, I enjoy, too.
Me, too.
Is there someone out there who doesn't like kissing?
I'm sorry, but who wouldn't like sex?
I just asked him. I was straightforward.
Oh, god. You have no idea how startled I was, though.
It came up organically.
There's always a time and place, right?
Oh, yeah, they're… They're an item.
So he's my cousin, and also we work together.
[Jae-won] And I know her as my cousin's girlfriend.
I'm friends with them both.
They've dated for what, like 10 years? Or maybe 20?
No, five years.
Anyway, I was the one who asked him first.
And I think it happened at exactly the right time and location.
5 YEARS AGO
[laughs]
[haunting music]
So, hey.
[Rin-i] Why do we always watch movies?
When will we have sex?
[Kyeong-jun] What?
Uh… I…
[coughing]
[man] Popcorn!

[loud pop]
♪ Corn ♪
Yeah, I guess not for a while, then.
'Cause now, whenever we try to have sex,
I'll just be envisioning that popcorn. [chuckles]
[Rin-i laughing] Aww…
It's still so funny, though.
I think of Kyeong-jun every time I see popcorn.
So I pretty much directly asked her what she wanted.
[machine rumbles]
Ah, I remember her wish list. Hotel, white lisianthuses,
and a nice bottle of wine as old as they were.
I was still in college back then.
Yeah. He worked tons of part-time jobs, so he could afford it all.
[Rin-i] Hmm.
[Rin-i grunts]
- Oh, sorry. - [both groan]
- [Rin-i] Hey. - Oh, my bad, my bad, my bad.
- [Rin-i] Kyeong-jun! - [exhales]
[Rin-i] You need to unbutton me first.
- Oh. - Yeah.
- Ugh. - [Kyeong-jun] Button.
- Oh, yeah. Now I see it. - [laughs]
Got it unbuttoned.
[chuckles]
Mm. [exhales]
[huffs]
- Oh. What? - [giggles]
[laughs]
- [yells] - [Kyeong-jun] Hey, stop playing.
[Rin-i continues giggling]
[sighs]
[giggles]
You're so cute. Let me just fix your hair.
[giggles] Cutie pie.
- [smooches] - [sighs]
- Hey. - [chuckles]
[exhales]
[romantic music plays]
[sighs]
[chuckles]
[smooches]
That night, he was really clumsy and awkward.
It was cute.
I was a pro from the very start.
He did a lot of research beforehand, but I could tell he was pretty lost.
That day, I found out that I'm like super good at it.
[exhales] We had such a night.
He came up and asked, "Hey, you ever had sex before?"
He didn't give me anything useful.
So I gave him tons of advice. Taught him everything I knew.
I guess you could say I was like his mentor.
Why do guys brag and lie about sex so much?
That's a turn-off for women. Hey, dummies.
Innocence isn't bad, it's hot.
What's important to us girls isn't stamina, it's their soul.
I totally agree with whoever said that.
No way. I prefer stamina.
The soul's invisible after all.
Don't let them fool you. For women, soul is just code for your technique.
"Soul" equals "technique." Okay?
I gave everything…
I gave everything I had to her.
- [machine clonks] - [exhales]
Poor boy gave his body and soul to that chick.

ONE YEAR AGO
[groans]
[yawns]
[grunts]
[chuckles]
The waves are looking really good today.
[sharp inhale]
Let's get a sneak peek of that sky.
Let's see.
Uh…
What?
Where am I? But I'm…
Yeah, no, I'm pretty sure I slept by the sea yesterday.
Whoa!
Who was that?

Okay. So, why am I here?
- I definitely got your permission. - My permission for what?
- [knocks on door] - [Eun-o] Jae-won.
[knocking continues]
Jae-won.
[door opens]
Jae-won, your driver's test is today.
Hmm.
Are you gonna practice driving?
- Hmm. - [snorts]
[Eun-o] Are you still asleep?
Hmm.
Okay, but you're still gonna practice today, right?
Yeah.
Not fair. I was half-asleep. That's cheating.
Still answered me. You said yes in your sleep.
God.
By the way, how did you find this place?
I also practiced my driving here.
But the school closed and it's private property now.
Then what are we doing here?
It's a great place for practicing. We should hurry, then,
since I'm not a qualified teacher, and we're trespassers.
You're fully awake, right? Okay. Let's practice some driving.
Hey, you got this thing. You just gotta get a grip.
[scoffs]
[Jae-won] Uh, I mean, at this point, I'm wide awake and all.
But you're awfully confident about this whole breaking the law thing.
What do I do?
For starters, put on your seat belt.
- Now do you see the car key? - Hmm.
Step on the brake and start the car.
- Yeah, I knew that. - [key turns]
- [engine starts] - Good.
- Whoa. - Now make sure to drive along
the S shape line.
Wait. When did you find time to draw that?
- [Eun-o] Come on. Let's go. - [Jae-won] Let's go.
[Eun-o] Most important thing is you need to make a big turn
to keep the trailer inside the lines.
We're talking a big right turn outward.
- Keep driving this way. - All right.
- Turn. - Big turn coming up.
[Eun-o] You're doing great. You're on the line.
- I said make a big turn. What happened? - Oh. Okay.
- Big turn. Make a big turn. What the heck? - Big turn.
- Are you angry? - No, I never get angry, actually.
You just need to make another big turn
- is all I'm saying. Yeah. - Turn.
- [Jae-won] Turn. - [Eun-o] Yeah, big turn.
You're doing great. No, no. This time, the turn was too big.
[Eun-o gasps] Careful. Careful.
- You crossed the line. You gotta keep… - It's too narrow. I'm serious.
- It is. - No, it's not.
[Eun-o] I drew it just like the driving test.
- Hoo! - This actually isn't that hard.
- See? It's way too narrow. - No, it's really not.
[Jae-won] It's narrow even for a motorcycle.
- [both laugh] - [Eun-o] You're doing great.
[playful music plays]
I have a good feeling. I think you'll pass.
What do you mean? I'm not so sure about this anymore.
- This is all really hard. - You did awesome.
I was a great teacher, so I'm sure you'll pass.
- [groans] - [gasps]
- Get down. - Wait, why?
What's going on? What…
- What? Oh? - [exhales]
We just broke the law back there. Trespassing on private property.
You were okay with it when we were practicing.
How would I be okay with it in front of the police?
Oh, I can't believe… Then you and I both…
- Whoa, whoa, cops right there. - [gasps]
[sighs] Are you kidding me?
- What are you… - Oh, for real now.
[laughs]
[sighs] Hey!
- Come here. Come here. - [groaning]
- So where are the cops you saw? - They were there, right there. I swear.
- Look! The cops! See? - Will you stop?
- Where? Where? Seriously? - [Jae-won groaning]
I'm sorry. That really hurts. My ears are bleeding.
- [Eun-o laughs] - It's…

Those two went on a little date. [Eun-o sighs]
Now that we have the place to ourselves, let's eat some snacks and slack off.
Okay, sure.
[Jae-won] You wanna slack off?
[fridge opens]
- Then you know… - [fridge closes]
…it's not really slacking off without beer.

Mm.
When did you start making surfboards?
About two years ago, I started learning how to do it.
I picked up more and more each time I came and I'm still learning, honestly.
- Mm-hmm. - [chomps]
You come here a lot?
I met Ra-ra and Bin at Jeju Island back when I was in college.
I hung with them quite a bit back then when they lived in Jeju.
But it's my first time visiting here. I was busy with work.
Wow. You must've surfed for a long time.
- It's that much fun? - Mm. It's a blast.
But, uh, not everyone feels the same way.
- Hmm… - Why? Are you saying you're interested?
I'm gonna try it once I feel up to it. I really want to.
But you told Ra-ra you're scared of water.
From now on,
I won't ever let myself be scared, embarrassed, or reluctant.
No longer doubtful, indecisive, or hesitant.
I decided not to be that anymore.
I'm slowly trying to cut down on speaking and thinking that way.
One day. I'll stop saying I'm afraid. All right?
Once you manage to do that, I'll teach you how to surf.
- Just say the word. - Okay.
[gasps]
You hear me? I wasn't hesitant just now.
- [scoffs] - [both laugh]
[uplifting music]
How long are you planning to stay?
I also stopped making plans, so I don't know.
- When did you get here? - A month ago.
What did you do before coming here?
Don't you have a job or career to go back to?
Don't ask.
I'll leave here thinking about what I'm gonna do once I get back to Seoul.
Then maybe in Seoul, you and I can meet up.
[chuckles]
What you doin'?
I think I'm not scared anymore. That fear is conquered.
[chuckles] Congrats.
[exhales] Now can you teach me how to surf?
- One, two. Relax your arms. - [Eun-o] Mm-hmm.
You're doing great.
[Jae-won] Awesome. Now be sure to put your arms deep in the water like that.
Okay, good. Good. Chin up.
Good job. There you go.
[scared groans]
Hey.
- Are you okay? Are you scared? - A little.
Don't be scared. I'm right here.
I'll be here the whole time and catch you whenever you fall.
So don't worry. Just focus on the waves, all right?
You're my only focus right now. Okay?
- I think so. - Let's try again.
Start paddling. One, two.
You're doing great. One, two.
- [gasps, giggles] - [Jae-won] Keep… Oh
[both laugh]
You're okay. You're fine.
[Jae-won] Good job.
[serene music plays]
It's coming. Get ready.
Start paddling. Here we go.
Push!
Paddling. Up!
- [gasps] - Push!
- [grunts] - Up!
It's coming. Ready? All right.
Get ready.
Keep paddling. You got this. You got this.
Push. Up. Stand up.
- [gasps] - [grumbles]
[grunts]
Oh, that was a hard fall. I hope she's all right.
[Eun-o exhales]
- You could do it. - I can.
- Start paddling. - [focused breathing]
Push. Up.
- [groaning] - [Jae-won yells]
- [screams] - Yes! You did it!
Yeah, you go! You got…

Seon-a!
- [panting] - Seon-a.
- Seon-a, are you okay? - Uh-huh.
Oh, good. Wait a minute.
You…
- [Jae-won] You're really all right? - Oh, yeah.

SATURDAY 28TH
- [clock ticking] - [Jae-won sighs]
[medicine box clacks]

Did you see me out there?
Did you see me catch that wave?
Yeah, I saw you.
- I was there, remember? - Yeah, you were there. That's right.
I'm proud. I did well today.
And it was really only my second day.
Oh, yeah. You did great.
And you were fearless in the water.
The wave was… was so beautiful.
I was scared, but it was awesome.
I'm telling you, when I finally got up, and I… I stood there riding that wave,
I felt…
I felt like I might just be on top of the world.
- Amazing. That's why people surf. - [chuckles]
[Eun-o] I'm so glad I decided not to be scared anymore.
Let's do it tomorrow. I wanna get good at it.
I really enjoy surfing.
[exhales]
But it must've hurt a lot.
[tranquil music plays]
A bit, I guess.
But it was really fun.
I'm gonna surf tomorrow and the day after that.
I'm going to surf every day.
Your whole body will ache tonight.
It's gonna be sore quite a bit.
I don't care if my body's shattered.
Because it was fun.

Um, let's dry you off first.

Bye-bye.
[Jae-won] To be honest, it's really hard to explain this feeling.
It just really felt like she basically pulled the fast one.
You know what? I bet she always planned to toy with me and throw me away.
One time. I'm not really sure what the big deal is about this?
But it wasn't just once, though.
Wait. Is she also doing an interview with you guys?
I know Jae-won is doing it as well.
I also know things like where he lives and where he works.
If she's also participating in this interview, then you better say to her,
"Hey, you're a terrible girl."
[Jae-won] People might think this is overreacting or out of left field,
but she'll know exactly why I'm saying it.
You're a really terrible person.
- A terrible girl. - [Eun-o] He's right.
Yeah, I'm a terrible human being.
I totally seduced you, had sex with you, and dumped you once I was done, okay?
Happy?
It's been so long since I last had a lovers' quarrel.

At this point, if she's a living, breathing woman, I'll take it.

You see…
I did what I did to him that morning… [sighs]
…because everything Jae-won knew about me was fake.
You know already. My name isn't Yoon Seon-a.
My name is Lee Eun-o.
It's not Yoon Seon-a.
