[wind chimes tinkle]
Whoa, this is nice.
You didn't have to rent this for our interview.
LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TEN MINUTES AGO
[chuckles]
Well, you know… [giggles]
- I like kissing. - [Eun-o] I must have been out of my mind.
Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa, why? Why out of your mind?
- Why did I do that? - Huh? What do you mean?
- I regret it. - Hey! What?
Did you just say you… you regret it?
She regrets what happened? This is insane.
Hey, do you mean… You said you regret it?
Is that how you feel?
- I-- - [Jae-won] Wait!
You know what? Think carefully before you answer.
If you say that you regret it now,
I think I'm gonna go insane. I'm serious.
[sighs]
- I regret it. - Damn it!
[Jae-won] Ah!
Hey, you kissed me first.
You always kiss me first. You even kissed me first in Yangyang.
- Right. So I must have been crazy. - Crazy? What do you mean? No.
Come on, you're not crazy. You're in love with me, okay?
Hey, you… Oh, hold up.
[rings clink]
[Jae-won] Look.
Look at this.
This ring, this is the ring I threw away at Cheonggyecheon.
The fact that she has it here with her
just shows that she went into the water on a cold day and took it out.
You know what? I could never do something like that.
It's love, yeah?
I did love you.
And when I watched you throw it away, it completely broke my heart.
So I went into the water on that cold day and grabbed it.
Yes. You did that. Now what?
- Huh? What about now? Ah! - I regret it now.
I regret fishing it out and kissing you.
[distressed groaning]
Look at her. Look, everybody.
Look. Come on, hey!
Come on. Look at her, everybody. Look at her.
For all the men out there, remember that face.
She kissed me first, and then, she says she regrets doing it.
Wow. She's tearing my heart out.
Should I just, uh, report her for sexual assault?
Are you for real? You kissed me back, didn't you?
Fine. Fine. Fine. I kissed you. I kissed you. So what?
I like you, so I don't regret doing it.
I like you, too, okay? That's why I kissed you.
- But I still regret it. - Oh, shit.
Oh…
- I like you. - [sighs]
I'm being honest here.
But you're not my priority right now.
Fine. You do like me. Okay.
So what's important to you right now? Let's hear it, then.
I'm sure Kyeong-jun already told you
about how frustrating and stupid I used to be.
Because you were engaged to another guy?
So what? So what?
I don't care about that at all.
[Jae-won] Why is that such a big deal?
What does that have to do with you liking me? I just don't get it, huh.
It might not matter to you, but it does to me, okay?
It was a secret and I wanted to take it to my grave without anybody finding out.
You ended up finding out about it and I'm humiliated.
You're humiliated? Look at…
Come on!
I'm here begging you to take me back like a crazy idiot.
I look like, uh, completely insane right now.
- Stop it. People are watching us. - I don't care if people are watching us!
Keep watching! Come on! I'm crazy! And everybody can watch me.
Come on! I'm fine with it. They can watch.
They already think I'm crazy. Let them watch.
[Jae-won exhales]
And as for you…
Do you know how selfish you are?
Fine. I'm selfish.
I agree. I love, cherish, and value myself the most.
- I decided to live only for myself. - [exhales]
But I'd rather hear that I'm a horrible girl
than hear that I'm a stupid idiot.
[Eun-o] You even said that I was frustrating!
Look, we're not that couple who fell for each other in Yangyang.
We've seen each other's worst moments.
Do you actually picture us being happy together now?
[grunts]
[screams]
Oh, my head hurts. Oh!
I'm going crazy. [groans]
What should I do? Can anyone tell me?
What do I do? I'll do as you say.
Wait. You know what, Seon-a…
I… Oh, no.
[thwacking] Damn it. It's not over, Eun-o.
I'll get revenge.
I'll get my revenge on her.
Is there a way…
to make her cry or something like that?
Is there some special way to make her shed tears of blood from her eyes?
Please tell me. Huh?
What? Meet someone else?
[groans]
What's that going to do, huh?
I still have feelings for Eun-o.
It'd make that woman feel bad, don't you think? Ah…
I can't date someone else in this condition.
I can't date right now 'cause I'm insane!
[lips smack] Ah! Never mind.
Never mind. No way.
You know what? I can't let this slide. There's no way. Here.
Look. I'll show you.
You're dead meat.
[sighs]
Fine. Okay.
CRAZY IDIOT
[phone vibrates]
[vibration continues]
- Hello? - [Jae-won] How can you sleep right now?
[sighs]
[Eun-o groans]
- [line disconnects] - What?
She hung up? [scoffs]
[chuckles] Wait, should I… Unbelievable.
- [phone vibrates] - [sighs]
- What? - How can you sleep right now?
I'm sleepy.
[exhales]
"Sleepy"? You're… Know what? You're…
an awful person, you know that?
I know.
You're…
terrible. Just…
All right.
[line disconnects]
Uh, hello?
She must be… She hung up on me again. She's crazy.
- [phone vibrates] - [exhales]
Hey! Don't hang up on me.
Just listen to me. Don't hang up. Please don't hang up on me.
Also, don't fall asleep.
Because if you do,
it will drive me nutty, you'll torture me to death.
[sighs]
[exhales]
Okay. I won't.
[Jae-won] Okay. Good.
Just…
stay like this.
Fine. I will.
[exhales]
By the way, if I'm the bad one here,
what are you, then?
I'm…
I'm the crazy guy.
[scoffs]
- You know you're being crazy? - Uh-huh.
You made me this way.
[Jae-won sighs]
But about you, uh…
Do you really regret meeting me?
I don't regret it.
Me neither.
Since I met you, I've done all sorts of crazy things.
But not once did I regret meeting you.
When I was with you…
I loved every second.
[Eun-o] I did things I had wanted to do but never tried.
The fact…
that you liked me…
I was very grateful.
That's what I needed back then.
I wanted to become someone else.
And I wanted to be loved by someone.
[exhales]
["Love and Pain" by Lee Su Hyun playing]
Do you…
honestly believe that you weren't yourself in Yangyang?
[exhales]
I still don't know.
♪ I have no words to say ♪
I don't know if I've really changed
or if I'm just being Eun-o pretending to be Seon-a.
[Eun-o] I've tried to remind myself not to go back
to the stupid old me.
Though there are days when that effort feels fake or forced.
[huffs]
That's it.
What's important to you right now.
[Eun-o] Mm-hmm. You're right.
I want…
to find what I'm really made of.
I wanna find my true self right now.
I… I still don't know who I really am.
I do know that I don't want to go back to who I was.
♪ Cause we shared love, the pain ♪
♪ The beams and hurt ♪
I'm really sorry that this is the real me.
But…
finding out who I am is important to me.
Taking care of myself is,
at this point…
more important than you.
♪ Because I shared love, pain, and tears ♪
♪ With you ♪
- [tape stretching] - [engine rumbles]
[car door opens]
Your keys.
["Thorn" by ChoA playing]
[mechanic] Hello. How can I help you?
[Jae-won] The side mirror fell off. I'd like to get it fixed.
[bag rasps]
[Eun-o] Take them.
I'll feel better if you do.
[Jae-won] Okay. [clears throat]
I don't want you to feel guilty.
Here.
You left it at my place when you slept over.
You said you're finding yourself and…
I wish you the best.
Mm.
Aren't you gonna say, "Take care of yourself"?
We'll be seeing each other at work.
Yeah. You're right. See you.
- [car door closes] - [engine starts]
[engine revs]
[exhales]
[blows]
Mm. [sips]
[gulps] Ah…
[message alert tone]
Mm.
[Rin-i] Mm. Let's see.
[Kyeong-jun] Did you glue the fork?
[shutter clicks]
I knew it.
Do you want a new bike?
A bike? No. Something else.
- Hmm? - [Rin-i] One hundred kisses.
One hundred "I love you's."
And 100 hugs.
[Kyeong-jun] Then… how about tonight?
[Rin-i] Tonight?
I can't.
I'm washing my sheets now.
I'm sleeping over at Eun-o's tonight.
Just buy an extra set of sheets for yourself. Please buy them!
Come on, I beg you! [groans]
[grumbles]
[message alert tone]
SEON-YEONG
[Seon-yeong] I finally found your place. Come out. I'm in front of your house.
[Geon] Where is she?
Whose door is she waiting in front of?
[exhales]
[line rings]
[huffs] It's cold out here.
- [woman] What do you want? - I'm sorry.
[puffs]
[Seon-yeong] Attention! At ease.
Attention!
Look at these punks. I said, "attention."
Ha…
Are you leaning on one foot?
- Stand properly. - [grunts]
- You just kicked me. - Yeah.
I did kick you. So what are you gonna do?
Should we go to the Office of Education or the police? You choose.
Where should we go, huh?
Look, you know that smoking in itself is bad enough,
but when you smoke and throw away your cigarette butts on the streets
like you boys have done is even worse.
So now, I'm gonna make you start picking up the cigarettes you threw away.
- Right now. - [scoffs]
[Seon-yeong] I said now.
Pick them up. Hurry. Hurry, hurry, hurry. Hey.
Did you blow your nose? Why is that tissue here?
Gosh. Come on, move faster.
Hey, right here. Pick it up.
[Seon-yeong] Did you actually use that to blow your nose?
Look here. Just mind your own business.
You're tall.
Oh, what a rude punk.
- [Geon] Do you know how old I am? - Why should I care? Huh?
[boy] Oh, you're irritating me.
"Irritating"?
How dare you pick a fight when you're being disciplined, you stupid?
Get a grip.
He's my boyfriend, for your information.
If you wanna keep your handsome face, you better leave him alone.
Hear that?
I'm her boyfriend.
You got it?
I told you to turn a blind eye to students like that.
These days, kids are more scary.
It's okay. I'm scarier.
Yeah, you're right, that's true.
[chuckles]
Why did you say you're at my house?
I couldn't find your house, so I experimented.
I texted you because I wanted to see if you could find me.
[scoffs]
Do you still miss your mom?
[soju pouring]
Mm-hmm. I miss her when I drink,
when I'm rolling on the floor with a hangover,
when I'm walking on the streets late at night,
and also, when my principal lectures me for being late to work.
So you're saying that
you only miss her in situations where she would be pissed off with you.
I just feel like my mom will come to my rescue.
I inherited my temper from my mom's side.
"Hey. You shouldn't live like that.
You hear?" [chuckles]
You know…
like she'll show up to scold me in my dreams.
What do you want to tell her if you meet her?
Mm…
I would tell her there's this guy that I keep thinking about.
This guy is so slow and well, he's not handsome at all.
And listen, Mom, he's a complete idiot, all right?
Why did you dump this guy?
- Why didn't you stop me? - [inhales sharply]
I can't stop a woman like you, you know that.
I waited for you.
[Seon-yeong] I thought you would stop me…
and tell me to reconsider.
I wanted you to beg me to stay.
So I waited, but you didn't come back.
I wouldn't have cared if it was another person.
I would've just moved on and put it all behind me
like I've always done.
But because it was you, I just became so angry and annoyed.
[scoffs]
I was sad.
You're very special to me, you know that?
When I told guys I missed my mom, they all said this.
"Hey, cheer up.
I understand that.
I would feel the same way."
But you were different.
[Geon sighs]
"Whenever you miss your mom, come to my house."
You were the only guy who said that to me.
- [exhales] - Look at you now.
You're… you're not even trying to comfort me.
Instead, you're letting me talk about her all I want.
[Seon-yeong] I guess…
I wanted to help you like you did with me.
You like Eun-o, right?
[exhales]
I don't.
[hazy music plays]
[chuckles]
You never said that before.
Eun-o. Rin-i.
I don't see them as girls.
Even if I did see them as girls,
I truly think you're the prettiest…
and the sexiest.
[scoffs]
[laughs] What?
I should have told you sooner.
Yeah, you should have. Why did you wait this long?
I thought you were looking for an excuse to end things with me.
I thought it was over…
and you wanted out.
[Seon-yeong] Why can't I be in a long-term relationship with one guy?
[Geon] Your romances may be short…
but they're passionate.
Every moment counts.
[chuckles]
Well, from now on, I won't visit you even if I miss my mom.
[Seon-yeong] I'll pull through on my own.
I will… officially
end it between us.
I came to say that.
Whenever we meet, it snows.
[Geon] It won't snow for long.
Let's part ways here.
Yeah?
Uh…
If you bump into those kids again,
make sure you tell them you're my boyfriend.
I get the feeling they'll hit you someday.
[scoffs]
[exhales]
Hey.
What do you take me for, huh?
[emotional music plays]
So when are you gonna get a real job?
Get your wallet out, please, Mr. Unemployed.
"Unemployed"? I'm a novelist.
But it's been three years since you published anything.
I had a meeting with the editor just a few days ago.
You've been having meetings for three years,
but you still haven't published anything.
You always poke me where it hurts.
[tuts]
[sighs] Here you go.
Hey, are we, uh, drinking beer tonight?
No. I'm lighting the candle today.
Why? What's the matter?
I'll tell you later.
- When are you done? - At ten.
I'm crashing at your place tonight.
I just washed my sheets.
Wow, you're excited.
Isn't it annoying to come over?
Just buy an extra set.
No, that's too much. I'm good with one.
Goodbye.
You do it.
- [message alert tone] - [phone vibrates]
[sighs]
[Eun-o] I'm lighting the candle today.
I have something to tell you. My place, at ten.
What? No way.
I was planning on doing it.
[lighter ignites]
[Kyeong-jun] Candle day?
The three of them have been friends since kindergarten.
I heard when one of them lights a candle, the other two just listen.
That's all I know.
Me? I transferred schools when I was in second grade,
so I'm not considered a childhood friend.
I met them again through Rin-i.
Do you remember…
a year ago?
When I…
suddenly disappeared for a while…
then came back to Seoul?
- [Eun-o exhales] - [cloth rustles]
[Eun-o] My house must be cold inside.
[door lock beeps]
[luggage rattles]
- [door squeaks open] - [door lock beeps]
What's this? Why are all the lights on?
Why is it warm in here?
- [object rasps] - [gasps]
[Eun-o] You startled me.
What are you doing?
Why are you at my house?
Um…
I…
thought it'd be too cold for you.
I washed your bedding and…
took out your winter blanket.
I thought the power and water would have been cut off.
I paid the bills for you.
[Geon] It's cold outside, right?
Mm.
It's super cold.
Did you know that Rin-i came back?
- Really? When? - When she heard you disappeared.
- She even went to Busan to find you. - [sighs]
Go unpack. Then we'll eat something.
[Geon] Call Rin-i first.
[calm music plays]
Looks like Rin-i came here a lot.
They were on the door and I put them there for you.
[Rin-i] Eun-o, it's Rin-i.
I found weevils in your rice while cleaning,
so I bought a new bag.
It's not for free. Pay me for it when you come back.
I put curry inside the fridge.
I hope you'll come and eat it soon.
Where on earth are you?
Prepare for a huge fight when you come back.
Come back soon, Eun-o. I miss you.
EUN-O, ARE YOU EATING WELL?
EUN-O, I CLEANED THE HOUSE.
I EVEN WASHED THE BLANKETS.
[Eun-o] Back then…
- [sniffles] - …you kept my house warm for me.
And the two of you waited for me.
Thank you.
[deep inhale]
It's all in the past. Why bring that up?
You probably wanted to ask me many things,
but chose not to.
You both gave me space and were respectful.
I knew it all along, but pretended I didn't.
I hid behind your kindness instead.
I'm sorry.
I'm very sorry.
Thank you.
Mm…
[exhales]
So I…
[clears throat]
[huffs]
Oh…
[chuckles]
So I…
[clears throat]
[puffs]
[Geon sighs]
- Tell us next time if it's hard. - Mm-hmm.
Right, Eun-o. You… You don't have to pressure yourself.
[Geon] We see each other all the time.
I have to.
I won't hide from this again.
I kept secrets from you.
And also you.
It won't happen again.
I…
[exhales]
I, uh…
I…
I am…
Yoon Seon-a.
I'm the one who stole from Jae-won.
[crying]
Telling the truth hurts so bad.
[sobs]
[crying]
[Eun-o] Honestly…
I haven't changed at all.
I'm still the same person that I was before.
I'm still the same stupid Lee Eun-o.
You're not stupid. Why do you think that?
I just think that everything happened back then because I was stupid.
It's not your fault. It was Min-su's fault.
[Rin-i] Your job offer, too.
It was the company's fault, it wasn't yours.
[cries]
I just…
I just didn't want Jae-won to find out how stupid I actually was.
I really didn't.
I hated that the girl Jae-won met in Yangyang was so fake.
And I… I really didn't want Jae-won to find out
why I ended up going all the way to Yangyang.
I didn't want you to know this because it's embarrassing and humiliating.
[sighs]
[sniffles] I'm so mad at you.
[sobs]
Me, too.
How could you keep that a secret? What are friends for?
I'm sorry.
[sniffles]
It wasn't because I didn't think of you as friends.
[Eun-o] I just…
I just wanted to keep this to myself, so nobody would know.
[exhales]
Eun-o.
[Rin-i] I have something to tell you.
[sobs]
The old Eun-o…
wasn't stupid.
[Geon] She's right.
You were warmhearted and kind.
[sighs]
[Rin-i] I like the old you so much.
- Me, too. - [sniffles]
But I like the new you as well.
Now you cry when you want to, smile a lot, get angry easily…
- [Eun-o titters] - …move on quickly, and goof around.
[sniffles] I like this new version of you a lot.
[cries]
The old you. The new you. Both of them are Eun-o.
They're all you.
So I… don't want you to say that again.
[sobs]
Why are you crying, Rin-i?
I'm crying because you are.
Hey. Don't cry, Rin-i.
[sobs] You, too.
[both crying]
- I'm sorry. - Don't cry.
What are you sorry about?
- [Rin-i] My dear Eun-o. - [Geon exhales]
[Eun-o] I'm sorry.
[Eun-o and Rin-i crying]
I'm lonely.
[sighs] Why am I so lonely?
[groans]
[Jae-won] You left it at my place when you slept over.
You said you're finding yourself and…
I wish you the best.
[object clacks]
[clacking continues]
What's this for?
[rings clinking]
["Thorn" by ChoA playing]
Oh, right. You wanted to light one.
Oh, yeah.
Why? What's the matter?
[scoffs] I…
ended things with Seon-yeong…
before I went to the market.
But you broke up three years ago.
We did it again.
[sighs]
She was in the middle of telling me something and my heart just…
Candle day is over. I'm gonna wash up.
[door opens]
- [Eun-o] Even so… - [door closes]
…that must have been hard for you.
You have to go and work, right?
Mm-hmm. In a bit.
[clicks tongue]
[groans] Go. Come on. Hurry up. Go ahead.
- [door closes] - [sighs]
