WHAT'S YOUR
[narrator] What's your relationship with Eun-o?
Roommates.
To be more specific…
roommates only. I share a place with her.
When did I meet her? In kindergarten. We're best friends.
[chuckles] Me, too.
I have my own place. I rent this room as my work studio.
You thought different? Why?
I told you already I haven't had sex with anyone in a long period of time.
This is not something to brag about, yet here I am just rambling.
[narrator] Are you okay with your lover having guy friends or female friends?
[tires screech]
So like if my girlfriend has guy friends?
Huh. No. I'm not. Really.
Honestly, I don't think any guy would.
And if any guy says he does, ha, he's a damn liar.
The same goes for women as well. [sharp inhale]
Let me tell you what it really means
if the guy I'm dating has a female friend he's close to.
It means you have a potential rival on your hands
who could take her from you at any time.
Look, I may trust my man, but not his female friend.
"My man"?
He may pretend to be her friend, but he's got a hidden agenda.
I know a guy who fits that bill.
He pined for her over ten years and got her.
[sharp inhale] That guy is definitely something.
Oh!
Kyeong-jun and I?
[background chatter]
DON'T DEMOLISH THE PLAYGROUND, THE LOCALS' REST AREA
[Kyeong-jun] Don't tear down the playground! Hear the people!
PROTECT OUR REST AREA
We don't have enough nature-friendly recreation areas as it is,
so how dare you try to demolish this one?
How dare you consider the idea
of getting rid of these beautiful trees and flower beds to build a building?
For the good of our children and for all of us,
if you guys will do what's right, then we are the ones who will protect it.
We'll protect it. Protect it.
We, the people of Seongsu-dong, object to the demolition of this space.
We object! We object!
We don't want corporations and banks over our playground.
[all] We don't want it. We don't want it.
We, the people of Seongsu-dong, object to the demolition of this space.
[all] We object! We object!
SEONGSU GAENARI CHILDREN'S PARK
- [Rin-i] You live around here? - [Kyeong-jun] No.
- I live in Bundang. - Bundang?
Then why are you demonstrating over our town's issue?
Well, because I love this garden.
- [Kyeong-jun] I come here a lot. - All the way from Bundang?
I'm interested in saving the environment. [chuckles]
Ooh. So am I.
It's absolutely absurd to me
how they want to tear down this park to build a dumb building.
So you don't remember?
We went to school together in second grade, yeah.
I'm Choi Kyeong-jun. You're Suh Rin-i.
You probably forgot, right? 'Cause I moved soon after.
[scoffs]
[upbeat music plays]
[chuckles]
[Kyeong-jun] We, the people of Seongsu-dong,
object to the demolition of this space.
We object! We object!
We don't want corporations and dumb banks over our playground.
We don't want it. We don't want it.
A BOY AND A GIRL PROTECTED THE SEONGSU-DONG PLAYGROUND!
Right here.
[Rin-] I'd never met anyone who clicked so well with me.
It was so exhilarating.
Guess what's even weirder.
We kept running into each other.
Over and over again.
[background chatter]
YOUTH GREEN BAZAAR
Hi. How are you? Feel free to take a look.
Look at that. Clothes are all worn-out.
- Would you wear this? - Eww. No one would.
- [sighs] - Aha.
Sure, new clothes are great.
But throwing these away would be a waste of resources
and ends up polluting the environment.
If you don't understand the purpose of flea markets,
- why don't you go somewhere else? - [both chuckle]
[boy 1] Hey. How about you come hang out with us, too.
Don't waste your time here.
[scoffs]
Guys, I'm a high schooler.
- [both cackle] - How much is that?
Oh, wow. This one looks nice.
I wanna buy everything.
[Kyeong-jun] It's a good cause.
Ooh. They're all women's clothes, though.
Yeah. They're for my mother.
Ah. You know, if these things aren't quite your style,
you should probably just leave. Goodbye.
Middle school brats.
[Kyeong-jun] Oh.
This is so pretty. What is it?
An ornament? Like this?
Uh, that's a sponge.
Hmm.
I have lots of dishes to clean. I can use this.
This will make it way easier.
Like this. [chuckles]
[plastic crinkles]
Wait, how did you know I was going to school here?
My friend goes to your school, too.
I came here to give this to him, actually.
But strangely enough, you came out instead, so I guess you can have it.
- What about your friend? - Who?
Oh, sure. He, uh, told me he already left.
Ah.
- Well, thanks. - Kick that test's butt.
[exhales] Yeah.
Thanks for the rice cakes. I'll pass this test.
Mm. I believe that.
- You got it. - I got it.
[serene music plays]
Hmm.
[giggles] It's even funnier that…
I would be sure to text him every time I had a blind date.
Like, "Hmm, can you tell me what you think about this guy?"
Watch and learn. [titters]
- [blows] - [squeaks]
Oh, man, the weather today is really bad, just terrible.
[nervous chuckle]
- Nice to meet you. - Nice meeting you, too.
Yup.
[sneaky music plays]
Yeah. Do you like these paintings?
Yeah, I do.
Yeah, I don't know much about them though. [chuckles]
Ha.
I like it. Mm-hmm. Today's exhibition is pretty nice.
Mm.
By the way, who painted this? Anyone know?
Um, would you like to maybe grab some food?
- Yeah. - Oh, that's great.
- Let's go now. - Okay.
[bell dings]
[scribbles]
[Rin-i] I'm so sorry, but something just came up. I'm so sorry.
[exhales]
If I'm being honest, I had way more fun with those covert missions than the dates.
I think that's the main reason why I didn't go on blind dates
after he joined the military.
Since it was less fun.
Ah!
Even when Kyeong-jun came back on leave, he took care of my sick grandmother.
What a sweetheart.
[door closes]
[Rin-i] Kyeong-jun.
Oh.
She just fell asleep. How'd your exam go?
[scoffs] I have no idea. I just hope I pass though.
- Are you really sure you wanna be here? - It's okay.
I wouldn't be doing anything else.
- Oh, sit here. Here. - Mm.
Wow. A lot of help he's been. Absolutely useless.
- Why is he here? - At home, he had writer's block.
[Geon] Oh.
Forgive me.
[sighs]
[Rin-i] Here's your Americano. Let me know if you need anything else.
[man] Wait.
Could I possibly ask you for your number?
I've been coming here quite a lot.
[Kyeong-jun] Not today, buddy.
- [Rin-i] Ooh. - [bag thuds]
Attention. Sergeant Choi Kyeong-jun has officially been discharged.
Reporting for duty.
- [Rin-i] You've been discharged? - [Kyeong-jun] That's correct, ma'am.
[laughs] Hi.
#AUTUMN NIGHT
#DEOKSUGUNG STONEWALL WALKWAY
#CIVILIAN
#W/RIN-I
[Rin-i] So what are your plans for the future?
I have a lot to do.
I have to graduate from school and get a job.
But most importantly, I'm gonna go ahead and ask someone out.
Someone I've had a crush on for quite a while.
What? Seriously?
It's the first I've heard.
Who is she? What's she like?
I was thinking you can give me some pointers on how to ask her.
[sighs]
Uh, let's see.
I think a surprise event would be too over the top.
Just say, "I like you. Wanna date?" I mean, right?
Nice and simple like that?
Right. You like simple things.
Well, we don't know if she would, though.
Hey, so I like you.
Wanna date?
Wow, that tone of voice was great.
I've had a crush on you for…
too long.
[exclaims]
Boy, that's so romantic.
She better say yes or she's nuts.
I didn't know what you'd like, so I had to think about it.
One minute.
Here you go. Let's grow these together, okay?
Mm, sweet idea. Growing matching plants.
[Kyeong-jun] Rin-i…
Do you, uh…
wanna date?
["Distance" by Motte playing]
Oh?
Let's go out.
[Kyeong-jun] Please.
[Rin-i] What?
Is it a prank?
[both giggle]
Seriously?
- Look at me. - [Kyeong-jun] What?
[Rin-i laughs]
[Kyeong-jun] Stop it. This is embarrassing.
[sighs]
That plant. Oh, man, it grew so well.
The guy who got her over ten years later?
Yeah. That would be me.
Although none of it was actually coincidental.
He practically scoured the internet to find her.
[scoffs] He was thorough.
If you think of it, you'd expect her to have caught on at some point,
but she honestly had no clue.
I mean, what's so special about love? He wasted 20 years of his life.
So I went through a lot to get here.
But…
I could bear it because she was cute.
[chuckles] Aww.
Stop.
Look, whenever you fall in love, uh…
[sighs]
…keep your cool, you know.
[Kyeong-jun] That's BS.
Look who's talking.
You ruined your life and you were dating only two months.
[sighs]
[puffs]
[drawer closes]
[exhales]
[phone vibrates]
Oh, hi, everything all right?
Yeah. I just wanted to let you know a woman printed a bunch of photos here.
[photo developer] It's not unusual, but…
Well, you happened to be in the photos with her.
What?
[keys clacking]
[phone rings]
Hello?
[Geon] What?
- For marketing agency O3? - [woman] O3.
[scoffs] Wrong number.
- [Eun-o] No! - [phone clacks]
[exhales]
- Hey, genius. - [gasps]
How many times have you done that?
It was unintentional.
"Unintentional"? [scoffs]
[sighs] Oh, look at that. This was unintentional.
Hey, hey, hey!
- Come back here! - Whoa, whoa.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Just… just wait a minute.
Just calm down.
- [pants] - And listen. Okay?
It probably wasn't important. I don't think so.
[groans]
- Don't think so? - Uh-huh.
- Of course, it was important, you idiot! - Oh.
You're not getting out of this that easily.
- My head. - The very fact that they called,
means it was one of the companies I reached out to give my card to!
- Why don't you get that? - [phone rings]
[phone rings]
Ah-ah-ah. They called… They called back. Look.
- Pick it up. - [sighs]
[phone continues ringing]
Hello, marketing agency O3 office.
[exhales]
For delivery?
- Hey, kid. Check the number before you… - [line disconnects]
Hang up.
[laughs]
- That's funny because I was still talking. - [cackles]
But this little boy just hung up on me.
[both chortle]
[exhales]
- [phone clacks] - [both grunt]
- [knocks on door] - [Eun-o] Hey. Open the door.
- She wasn't always like this. - I won't hit you. I said open the door.
[Eun-o] Open it!
[drawer opens]
Look at her. She looked so kind.
She really was.
A year ago, she disappeared for a few months and…
[Eun-o grunts]
Too slow.
You're dead meat.
[screams]
[lock clicks]
It's the end. You've done well, Geon.
It's all over now.
[keys clink]
- [door opens] - [exhales]
[panting]
Did you, uh, forget this is my house?
[sighs]
- Think you could get away? Get back here. - Okay, please. Please don't kill me.
- Okay, I'm sorry. Sorry, don't kill me. - Here's so I can kill you.
- I'm sorry! - Get back here!
[indistinct chatter]
[plastic crinkles]
[sighs]
- [exhales] - [footsteps approaching]
- [Kyeong-jun] Hey, bum. Are you sleeping? - [Rin-i] Hey, bum. Are you sleeping?
- [Kyeong-jun] Get up! - [Rin-i] Get up!
What took you so long?
[Geon] Do you know how long I've been waiting out here for you?
What's wrong? You fight with Eun-o again?
[sighs] This is too much.
That girl needs more work.
Kyeong-jun, can your job give her work?
- Why on earth did you provoke her? - Why would I?
- [chuckles] - Seriously?
[Eun-o] Hey, guys.
What are you waiting for?
So, you know, I'm gonna take you down one by one tonight.
You two can't team up.
- How did she know? - Plan B.
Got it.
Wow.
[Geon] Here comes the pomegranate juice.
She's gonna set up a honey trap again.
We should probably brace ourselves.
- [cards shuffle] - [chips clack]
[Eun-o hums]
Thank you.
- All right. 12,500 won per person. - Uh-huh.
[Eun-o] All right. So I'm about to win 50,000.
Look at her. Watch her. Look… Look at those eyes.
Is this how you make money?
Shut your mouth and beat me, then. So, you can win 100 per round.
Pay up after each. Okay?
And before you ask, IOUs aren't permitted. Got it?
- [Rin-i] Okay. - [chanting]
[Kyeong-jun joins chanting]
[chanting continues]
Let's start. Hold your ears.
- Right hand on the card. - [grunts]
- On back - Wrong hand, out.
- Oh, please. Let's just get on with it. - Ready or not. Rock, paper, scissors. Go.
- Yes! - [clock ticking]
I'll go first. Here I come.
[whimsical music playing]
[bell dings]
- [Kyeong-jun groans] - Five.
- Come on. - She's right.
Pay up. Let's hurry. The night is short.
and I got money to win.
It's only the beginning.
[humming]
GAME 1ST: EUN-O WIN
[whimsical music continues]
[bell dings]
- [all grumble] - [claps]
- Sorry. Come on. - What?
- Ha! Oh, never mind. - Ooh.
- [bell dings] - [all laugh]
RIN-I, KYEONG-JUN, GEON, EUN-O
- [all groan] - [Kyeong-jun] Pay up again.
- [bell dings] - [Geon sighs]
- Rin-i. - It's just a game.
- I love you. - Mm-hmm.
Careful with her.
[Eun-o exhales]
[Geon] Hurry up.
[Eun-o] Got it. Here I go.
- [bell dings] - I hit it! I did it! Yeah!
The money's mine, losers. Five plums, right there.
What? What? What? There's five plums. What's wrong?
[card rustles]
- What are you doing? - [Eun-o] Goodness. [clicking tongue]
He only has cards and no chips.
- So Geon's out. - [Eun-o] Kang Geon's out.
[Rin-i] Don't worry, Geon. I'll beat Eun-o to avenge your defeat.
[exhales]
With this 100 won, I'll take all of her money.
Give me power!
Defeat that gambling demon with the power of love.
- [both] Mm. - Aha.
[chuckling]
I didn't know I had 100 won. One more round?
Yeah, nice try, dude. Put that back.
All right, then…
I'll be taking her money.
Good. So let's do that.
Yeah, let's do it.
Bring it on, then.
RIN-I VS EUN-O
Here we go.
Hmm…
[dings]
- [gasps] - [Rin-i] Yay!
[Kyeong-jun] Fantastic job.
[sighs] Hurry it up, then.
Here we go.
- You did great, baby. - I'm on a roll.
- That's my girl. - Hand, what's wrong with you?
What are you doing?
[bell dings]
- [dinging continues] - [gasps]
- Well… - [Kyeong-jun] Wow!
- [Eun-o] What's wrong with me today? - [Geon] You suck. How did you win those?
- [Kyeong-jun] Wow. - [Rin-i] Hey.
[Kyeong-jun] Oh, man, this is gonna be great. You're gonna win!
- [Rin-i] All right. - [Kyeong-jun] There you go.
[indistinct speed-up chatter]
[Kyeong-jun] You're doing so well!
[exhales]
All in?
[tense music]
Deal.
- Let's do it. - [huffs]
- Let's do it. - Hmm.

[Eun-o] Stop right there.
It's not over yet.
Looks like that's your right hand you just hit the bell with.
The bell has to be rung with the left.
[scoffs]
That's a wrong hand and that means you're out.
[laughs]
[festive music playing]
- Whoo! - It's okay. You did great.
I forgive you.
Hey, lady and gentlemen, it was a great match.
Actually really intense.
- [laughs] - Great job.
THE END
[car horn honks]
[Eun-o] I'm keeping the cameras.
Actually…
I stole them.
That was my plan from the start.
[horns honking]
If she still has the cameras, then…
she didn't steal them to sell them.
Once she saw and recognized your face, she paid and left in quite a hurry.
And here. She didn't take that with her.
[clicks tongue, groans]
I just don't understand why.
If she was going to print all of the pictures,
then why leave the message?
[Eun-o claps] Give me 12,500 won each.
- Do you have 500? - Give it to me.
- I just wired you the money. - [Kyeong-jun] Hmm.
[sighs] I should turn her in as a gambler.
Hi, is this the police? We're in trouble. Please get here quickly, sir.
Help us. I beg you. Oh, shit.
[Eun-o] The second reason I broke up with Jae-won was…
Well, them, really.
They have no idea
that I'm the Yoon Seon-a Jae-won used to know.
JAE-WON
Huh? It's Jae-won.
[phone vibrates]
Hey, what?
Mm-hmm, I'm near at Rin-i's place.
The studio? Why?
I can't right now.
- We're here gambling. - He should come here, too.
Yeah, we'll totally play another round.
Wanna come if you're in the area?
Really? Should I?
- [Kyeong-jun] I'll send you the address. - Cool.
- That okay, Eun-o? - What?
Oh, will we finally get to meet the Jae-won we've heard so much about?
[GPS beeps]
[GPS voice] Two hundred meters until your destination.
[GPS beeps]
You've arrived at your destination. The navigation has ended.
It's around here…
[hurried footsteps]
[tires screech]
Yoon Seon-a?
[gasps]
[Jae-won] Hey, Seon-a.
Seon-a!
Yoon Seon-a!
[panting]
Wait, Yoon Seon-a!
Where could she have gone?
Yeah, that was her.
I definitely saw her.
[phone chimes]
Hey, Kyeong-jun.
No, I'm nearby. I just…
It's the weirdest thing. I… I saw Seon-a.
[sighs] Never mind. I can't tonight.
[sighs] Something came up.
Sorry.
[huffs]
♪ I have no words to say ♪
[Eun-o] Why do you think I stole the cameras?
It's because I found out when I came back here to Seoul that…
Park Jae-won and Kyeong-jun are cousins, that's why.

I couldn't give them back to him.
