Love to Hate You (2023) s01e08 Episode Script
The Way You Change Me
1
LOVE TO HATE YOU
Why am I letting myself play this game?
Nam Kang-ho means nothing to me.
Ms. Oh.
Could I…
perhaps sleep in your room tonight?
-There's no spare room left.
-What are you talking about?
What would people say
about you bringing your girlfriend in
as a stunt double
and also having her sleep in your room?
Well, I'm okay with it.
You can use my makeup remover
and lotion too.
Okay.
Honey.
Huh?
It's because I'm worried.
Sleep in my room.
Sleep in my room. And don't bother Ms. Oh.
No, really. It's not a bother at all.
I'm really okay with it!
Thank you, Ms. Oh.
Thank you for looking out
for my girlfriend.
Let's go.
Thank you anyway.
His revenge
is too harsh.
Did Se-na say anything to you?
About what--
About how we used to date.
Whoa, really?
Awesome!
After quitting college,
I met her at the theater company.
We were each other's first loves.
Our relationship ended badly.
It was a very long time ago,
and we haven't met since then.
Now, I have zero feelings for her.
Anything you'd like to know?
-No.
-Nothing at all?
Nothing.
That settles it.
Don't just stand there.
Lie down here and get some rest.
You want me to sleep there?
Of course.
That's fine!
I'll sleep here so you can sleep
comfortably in the bed.
You have a long day tomorrow.
So comfy.
Is it comfy?
Is it comfy to sleep on the couch
while telling a man to sleep in the bed?
You think this is why I asked you
to sleep here?
What kind of lunatic sleeps in the bed
and lets a woman sleep on the couch?
I didn't know you were so macho.
Look here, Ms. Yeo.
You are a patient.
You had 14 stitches in your back.
So if you sleep here, it means
you're trying to make me feel bad--
Oh God. Okay!
The bed is comfier, indeed.
Thanks.
Now what?
What's bugging you now?
You want me to wash up? Or brush my teeth?
Come on. One night without washing up
or brushing my teeth won't kill me.
Don't worry about me. Good night.
I am worried about you.
Damn it. I should have just slept
in Oh Se-na's room!
I still can't wrap my head around this.
I have never met a woman like you.
A woman like me?
Like what?
A dirty woman?
Damn it! Ouch!
No, not that.
Stop moving around and stay still.
If that's not it, then what?
There were a lot of guys back there.
Why did you have to do it yourself?
You're a woman.
"A woman"?
If you noticed the danger,
why not tell one of the stunt actors?
Why did you take it upon yourself?
"A woman"?
Mr. Nam Kang-ho.
If someone saves you from danger,
are you going to complain
because a woman saved you?
If your life is in danger
and a woman comes to your rescue,
are you going to say,
"No, don't come. Why did you come?"
Why would you care
whether it's a man or a woman?
Your life is in danger.
No, what I'm saying is
that you could have died.
And? If I die, I die.
Women are always damsels in distress.
And men show up at the right time.
Then pow!
I really hate scenes like that.
In fact, I don't like
the movie script very much.
What is that?
The woman is weak and pitiful,
and the man comes to save her.
It's super annoying.
But why is he watching the outtakes?
This is your second movie with Mr. Yoo,
and you don't know?
I don't know.
He's been inspired.
Looks like he's going to edit the script.
Sure, she can be physically weak,
but she even lacks the will.
Her man is wrongfully incarcerated.
She's forced to be the boss's mistress.
She should get revenge,
not just sit there!
Well, it's not my place to critique.
Where are you going?
To wash up and brush my teeth.
This late at night
and just the two of us again.
All the way to Seoul like this?
Even the music is sensual!
KANG-HO
Yeah, Kang-ho.
So she's staying in my room
because there are no spare rooms.
Who is?
-Ms. Yeo?
-Yeah.
Do I snore when I sleep?
Huh?
Yeah. No. Sometimes?
"Sometimes"?
How loud?
Like an electric toothbrush?
Electric toothbrush?
What's she doing now?
Sleeping?
No, she's washing up.
Yeah? Then sleep in the bed together.
If you sleep on the couch
like a pathetic fool,
she'll feel too bad to relax.
Lie next to her and comfort her
if she says she's hurting.
Caress her until she falls asleep.
Comfort her.
Caress her
until she falls asleep.
I'll call you when I'm done driving.
Shall we stop by the rest area
and get something to drink?
I'd like that.
What?
Oh, I must be mad!
Everything about him is attractive!
What's wrong?
I'm going to use the ladies' room.
Oh no, my bangs are all flat!
Let's see.
Like this.
First, ask a lot of questions
like you're interested.
You know, like which elementary
and middle school she went to.
And then casually touch her.
No, not like a pervert!
You know, like picking lint off of her
even though there isn't any.
And then, when the mood is right,
say stuff like,
"Wow, you have really long fingers."
Try that.
I noticed she had long fingers.
And keep looking at her hands
like you want to touch them.
Even if you stare at hands in a lewd way,
it won't make you look weird.
And if she just falls asleep…
Wait, she could just be pretending
to be asleep.
So don't give up. Just grab her hands.
And if you feel like
you've stirred her heart,
tell her how you feel.
I'll win Na-eun over as fast as I can
and try to provide support--
Na-eun.
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here, Mr. Do?
I've acted in a way that would put him off
instead of trying to seduce him because…
I lost the will to fight.
After seeing Oh Se-na's true feelings.
Are you asleep?
Are you sleeping?
Does what I'm doing warrant cursing?
It's just that
I've never met a woman like you.
The type of women I know are
those who try to turn their lives around
through marriage,
those who try to turn their lives around
again through remarriage,
or those who turn their lives around
and then discard their men.
Those types are all I've known.
Women who only do
what's beneficial for them,
not do things that could
put them in harm's way.
We all work on our birthdays.
It's not a national holiday.
EPISODE 8
THE WAY YOU CHANGE ME
You have to have it your way, don't you?
You flirted with me
to keep me quiet about Mi-ran's deal.
And now you're flirting again
to hook Mi-ran up with Nam Kang-ho?
Don't you like
Kang-ho?
Why do you like Mi-ran?
Yes, my friend Mi-ran
is a fabulous woman by any standards,
but is she worth the trouble
for a top star?
Not just the top star but his boss too?
It's because Ms. Yeo
is a really special person.
I know she didn't like Kang-ho
that much at first.
Apparently, he was on some kind
of power trip.
But he didn't do that
because he dislikes Ms. Yeo
but because he is unusually wary
of women in general.
Kang-ho has done countless shows
with many beautiful actresses,
but he never had feelings for any of them.
Not a single one.
But somehow,
he met the right person this time.
It's my goal to see Kang-ho become
a really successful actor
and make sure he becomes a happy man.
When you came to confront me
about the contract,
you were concerned for your friend.
I'm concerned for Kang-ho too.
That's why I was hoping
that we could be a team.
I'm sorry.
I was crude in my choice of words.
Na-eun.
Do you want to be on my team?
Kang-ho is not the kind of man
to break a woman's heart.
He will only have eyes for one woman
and love her.
Celebrities aren't all that, right?
As you can see, they are also human.
Well, I think he's nicer than I imagined.
Who, Kang-ho?
Everyone sees him as a nice guy.
There are a lot of nice stories about him.
No, I meant you.
When I read the contract,
I really thought you were a scoundrel.
But now that you've gotten to know me,
do I seem nice?
When you ask so bluntly…
I think it would be a lot of fun
if we teamed up.
The four of us can go places
and hang out together.
Oh.
That'd be difficult
if you have a boyfriend--
I don't have a boyfriend.
If I did, I wouldn't have let you
pick me up from the airport.
I guess not.
Do you have someone?
I'm just like you.
Oh, okay!
Hallelujah!
INCOMING CALL
GRACE
Yes, ma'am.
I heard about the accident.
I just found out.
She wasn't hurt badly.
You don't have to worry.
I'll call you later.
That's a relief.
I have to deal with the insurance,
so tell me where she got treated.
Yeah. I'll call you back later.
Where are you right now?
I'm driving right now.
Oh, you're still on your way back.
Call me when you get back,
or you can just come to my house.
I'll call you.
Mi-ran was correct.
Mi-ran is right.
It doesn't hurt to be suspicious
of men you don't know.
I know it sounds really weird
for me to explain this,
but she is not
my girlfriend.
It's weirder
that she's not your girlfriend.
Right.
I'll tell you now
so I don't waste your time.
I won't be on the same team as you.
Why would I be on the same team
as you and Mr. Nam?
I'm on Mi-ran's team.
Even the back of your head is pretty.
I wonder what's going on
inside that head of yours
and what you think of me.
I wonder if what I'm doing is okay.
Now I can do this without the meds.
And I can do even more.
What on earth have you done to me?
How about if we keep this going?
I like you.
Yeo Mi-ran.
Get the door. Someone's here.
Oh, I slept next to you
because you kept trying to lie
on your wounded back.
You understand, right?
Okay.
I won't ask why you had to hold me
when you could support me with your back.
So-jeong was to be captured
and live in misery as the boss's mistress.
But the director will change it
so that she's secretly training.
What training?
Fight training.
She's planning an escape.
No. Let me.
She's planning her revenge,
to kill the boss.
How will she train to fight?
Is someone gonna teach her?
-The thugs.
-She doesn't learn.
Self-learned.
So not only does the story change,
but the entire character does, right?
Are you okay?
You got hurt because of me.
Oh! No, I'm fine.
I heard you got stitches.
I'm really sorry.
No, it's okay.
Hey, be good to her now.
She saved your life.
You were awesome!
Wow, I'm such a big fan now.
These people no longer see me
as just Nam Kang-ho's girlfriend.
I can't do that.
How can I throw knives?
Don't you worry. Your stunt double will.
What about getting beaten up?
I have to do it, don't I?
That's also for your stunt double.
Getting beat up needs to look convincing.
But she's hurt. Can she do it?
Of course not!
Her stitches may split open.
The director will push Ms. Yeo's parts
to the very end
so that she can film after she recovers.
Her sutures will be removed
in about ten days.
I'd say she can start in two weeks.
She won't say yes to a bigger role.
She's busy working as a lawyer.
Even now, she's not enjoying it.
She's only here because I asked her.
Huh? She seemed to be enjoying it.
Do you know Mi-ran better than I do?
Oh dear.
How come I know
what she's into better than you do?
Fine. I can at least ask.
Of course I'll do it! I want to!
The sutures will be removed in ten days.
I can start in two weeks.
Her sutures will be removed
in about ten days.
I'd say she can start in two weeks.
I knew it.
A master recognizes another master.
I wish it could be an action blockbuster,
like Mission Impossible.
That doesn't fit the plot, right?
How come I know
what she's into better than you do?
No, don't do it.
Huh? Why?
You're the type
who shouldn't do stunt work.
You have to be cautious and meticulous.
Dive in like that,
and you'll get hurt again.
Do you really want to die?
I don't like your tone.
You make me worry. That's why.
Even now, you're driving by yourself
without telling me.
I'll take care of my business.
We can't keep this going
if you act like this!
How about if we keep this going?
Mr. Nam. Don't get stressed over me.
Have a good day on set!
She totally heard it.
All of it.
I like you.
Yeo Mi-ran.
There must be
a romantic bone or two in me.
But the life span of love hormones
is three months at least
and maybe three years at most.
Three years? No way.
Nam Kang-ho said he liked me.
You said you'd seduce him and dump him.
Looks like you succeeded.
Congratulations.
That is so unlike you.
You should be excited.
Don't take me for a fool.
Things don't always go the way you want.
Those who think too highly of themselves
mess up big time.
You messed it up. Damn it.
How?
How did I mess up?
Dude, you already got dumped
even before I got that call from Grace!
No, I didn't. She didn't say no.
But now that you messed up
in front of Na-eun, they will hate me too.
Like attracts like, remember?
Like attracts like, remember?
Nam Kang-ho might be hiding something too.
It might even be worse.
Seeing how he's so good at acting.
So, are you going to kick him to the curb
during or after the contract?
I don't know.
You're wondering if you'll dump him
rather than when to dump him, aren't you?
I'm just craving alcohol!
Should we have just one drink?
No way!
You can't drink until your wounds heal.
Also, I've never seen you have
just one drink.
One usually turns into ten.
I only confessed my feelings
because you told me to.
God, she was in so much pain
from her injury.
What possessed me to think
that was my chance?
You've shot countless romance movies.
Was that really the best you could do?
Isn't that Stone Age romance?
Talking to the back
of a sleeping woman's head?
Jeez, that sucks.
Oh, and you're so hip that you sleep
with everyone who flirts with you, right?
I knew you'd get in big trouble
one of these days,
but instead, I did!
The only woman I ever slept with
was Grace, okay?
Hey, stop taking it out on me, coward!
Call her. Call Mi-ran!
Meet her in person,
and say it to her face!
She's not answering?
How many times did you try?
Once.
Damn! Are you kidding me?
What are you doing?
-I'm making a call.
-Wait, don't do it!
-Don't!
-Hold up!
It's ringing!
Hello?
What now? What do I say?
Ask her to meet you.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Oh, uh, yes.
I'll tell you in person.
Where are you?
I'm in the middle of something
with Na-eun.
-Why?
-I'll ask her and call you back.
Ask me what?
He's asking us to meet him and Mr. Do.
The nerve of that guy!
What if we meet again?
Does he think
he can change my mind about him?
Are you saying that Mr. Do had Nam Kang-ho
asked me so he could see you?
What else could it be?
Nam Kang-ho can meet you alone.
Why would he want me there?
Wow, that's ridiculous.
I can see what he's trying to do.
Is it a breach of contract
if you refuse to see him?
Oh, that's not in the contract.
Oh.
Then it will just give a bad impression.
By the way,
even after the contract is over,
Nam Kang-ho will be your client, right?
Yeah, probably?
Oh no.
Then he has to see you
as a competent lawyer.
Can you hold it together
in front of Do Won-jun?
Me?
Of course. I've already seen Do Won-jun
for who he really is.
So,
are you meeting them?
Yeah.
Now I want to find out
how strong your resolve is.
Thank you.
Wow, thanks to my hotshot friend,
I'm at Nam Kang-ho's house.
Can I take a selfie?
You're already so excited.
Will you be able to keep your cool?
I'm excited about the house.
And this is Nam Kang-ho's house,
not Do Won-jun's.
If you don't want wine,
then we have soju and beer too.
Wine's fine.
How about you?
She can't drink until her wounds heal.
Are you still with us?
Are you drinking that
so she's not the only one
not drinking?
Wow, this really is a rare sight.
You know he's not like his image, right?
He has zero consideration for women.
You two are the first women to ever
set foot in Kang-ho's house until now.
No way!
I'll tell you now so you don't think ill
of Kang-ho just because of me.
I'm the type to flirt all the time.
But Kang-ho, he never flirts.
A wall. A human barrier!
Kang-ho is different from me.
-What is your definition of flirting?
-Huh?
Why ask? We're adults.
Well, I don't know what it is.
Because I've never flirted with anyone.
If you're dating, you are.
If not, you're not.
But you've seen me flirt a lot.
With 100 guys, right?
-One hundred?
-Yes.
I don't have an exact count,
but that includes short encounters.
It's not 100.
How could she have 100 flings
and still become a lawyer?
She's been really busy.
That's what I thought.
Wow, Ms. Yeo. You're bluffing.
One hundred guys, jeez!
No.
In my experience,
she doesn't bluff about anything.
She said she could do a bit of stunt work
but ended up saving a person's life.
That night when she drove me home,
I thought she was a pro racer.
I almost died.
If she said she could spin hay into gold,
I'd believe her 100%.
You paint such a nice picture of me.
Thank you for trusting me so much.
So back to flirting.
If one thinks they're in a relationship,
but the other insists it's flirting,
is it just flirting?
The moment you tell the person
that you like them.
I like you.
From that moment, it's no longer flirting.
Na-eun, may I give you
a tour of the house?
The owner of the house
should give the tour, not you.
Sure. I'll show you around,
even though there's not much to look at.
Okay.
There's a lot to look at.
You've paid attention to every detail.
Did you do it yourself?
I did it myself.
I don't like to go out much.
-So I spend a lot of time at home.
-I see.
You are very talented.
May I sit over there?
She's met so many guys
and never found one person she liked?
Who, Mi-ran?
I don't know.
If you only try to see the good,
you see good people,
and if you only see the bad,
you see bad people, right?
Mi-ran has a tendency
to see all men in a bad light.
Why?
Mostly because she started off
with a bad guy, I guess.
I'll give it to you!
-Please stop!
-What's the matter?
Mi-ran used to date a really cool guy
back in high school.
What the hell?
He looked amazing,
and what he did was more amazing.
But he ended up asking me out too.
He was a cool boy.
So I went out with him out of curiosity.
I wasn't close with Mi-ran at the time,
but I felt bad.
Hey!
Why are you trying to look cool?
Take your hands out.
She's not even my friend,
but she's saying sorry.
What are you doing?
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
You can have him if you want.
I don't care.
Move!
That's when I was smitten with Mi-ran.
I'm a person, you know!
So I dumped him right there
and started following Mi-ran around,
and we became friends.
Hey!
"A good person isn't necessarily
a good man."
That's what Mi-ran always says.
Whenever she tries dating again,
the results are the same.
Oh, it's not like she's loose or anything.
Please don't get the wrong idea.
Oh, no.
"She's been cool since she was young."
That's what I was thinking.
I regret having made this contract.
If I had left you alone,
you might have
seen Kang-ho
in a much more positive light.
I think I made a mistake.
I was greedy
in trying to get you and squash the rumor
all at the same time.
Why do you think
I'm the one for him?
That's more puzzling to me.
You didn't like me at first,
and then suddenly…
I know.
It's because you're his one and only.
The only woman he has feelings for.
I'm telling you,
this is not an easy thing to happen.
Well, does Mr. Nam Kang-ho take…
some kind of medication?
What?
I wasn't meant to hear it, but I did.
Oh.
Nam Kang-ho seems different
from Do Won-jun.
He really seems to like you.
Mr. Do isn't such a bad person either.
Don't see him in a bad light
just because he's handsome.
Well, it's a form of panic disorder.
He has trouble breathing
in an extremely stressful situation.
And the stressful situation is
when he has to make
physical contact with women.
So whenever he shot a scene
where he had to be close to a woman,
he took medicine.
To prevent the attack.
Now I can do this without the meds.
And I can do even more.
What on earth have you done to me?
Amazing!
I used to do this with a drawing compass.
What? No way!
Do you want to see it?
Is there an ice pick or something?
Maybe someone has a pocketknife.
No. I mean it!
Bring me a pocketknife!
Don't do it.
Cookie delivery is here!
I baked them myself at home,
so please enjoy.
-Thank you.
-Enjoy!
Thank you.
You were so cool earlier.
Thank you.
He must've been like that
after breaking up with me.
Ms. Oh.
You want me to try some stunts myself?
Yes.
I can't. I'm not even athletic.
And there's no time to practice.
Not the cool action scenes.
How about the scene where you get beat up?
I'm sorry?
So-jeong is a character
who trained herself to kill the boss.
She's well-trained in kicking,
punching, and stabbing
but new to getting hit.
So I don't think you have to try hard
to make that look good.
You've done more research than I have.
If you do scenes like that yourself
and not the cool scenes,
everyone here would be very impressed.
Including Kang-ho.
Cut! That was good. Moving on!
Aren't you threatened by me?
Honey.
You were sleeping,
and it was to the back of your head,
but I shared my feelings directly.
If you're turning me down, tell me.
Why would you help out Se-na?
I know that Se-na is trying
to get back together with me.
But I really hate her.
A lot, very much, extremely!
Then you'd be fine
even if I helped her out a little.
What's the issue?
Do you really feel nothing?
Nothing towards me?
No. I feel a whole lot.
Even though it's a contract,
it's hard for an average girl
to date a top star.
It really sucks.
I'm well-off on my own,
but to be treated like Cinderella,
who is dating a star,
is a crappy feeling.
Regardless of how I feel,
I'll honor the contract, so don't worry.
Oh, and you did nothing wrong.
It's all just my inferiority complex.
But I don't know how to get over that
because that's just how I feel.
If we could control how we feel,
life would be easy.
But it's hard because we can't.
I thought a job was just a job for you.
Us pretending to be a couple
is also part of the job.
So, why do you feel that bad?
You've done worse, like drive me home.
Are you sure
you're treating this as just a job?
No feelings attached?
Okay. There were many times
when I felt my heart flutter.
You tried so hard. How could I not?
But the crappy feeling is overwhelmingly
stronger than the flutters.
That means if I become a nobody,
we'll have a chance.
Is this a TV show?
Even for a script, it's a bit far-fetched.
You are already who you are.
How could you possibly become a nobody?
It feels good to know
that Nam Kang-ho likes me this much.
So let me just hang on
to that good feeling.
Let's end it on a good note.
Class warfare seems easier.
At least we'd know we're being exploited.
But what if the enemy is your own family?
Through Eun-hee's life, we see how unfair
"family peace" is
in a patriarchal society.
We have to go now.
It's filled with insults
to me and my mother!
I'm going to sue you for defamation!
Sure, go ahead!
You better get yourself a good lawyer.
Because our daughter
will be representing me.
KIM EUN-HEE PUBLICATION SIGNING EVEN
CHEW IT TO TASTE I
I'm a bit prettier in person, aren't I?
-Yes!
-Yes!
I was blown away
to see how beautiful you are.
I probably got blown away even more.
I thought you were Mi-ran's older sister,
not her mother.
-You are stunningly beautiful!
-What?
Oh my goodness! You're too kind!
Well, people often tell me
that I look like my husband's mistress
or Mi-ran's stepmother.
-Stop it.
-But it's true.
Well, then. Congratulations
to Ms. Kim Eun-hee and her new book!
-Congratulations!
-Congratulations!
Oh, thank you so much!
I mean, to be sitting here
with superstar Choi Soo-jin…
This feels like a dream.
-Did that hurt?
-It did!
This is real!
It is! Oh my!
It's real, ma'am.
Your life will only get better,
thanks to your well-raised daughter.
Attorney Yeo's work is flawless.
It's very much to my liking.
I'm so happy to have this chance
to do something for her.
Oh my God. And the book is so fun!
Thank you so much!
It seems she exaggerated certain parts
to make it more fun.
Dad!
"Exaggerated"?
Which part?
Well, here and there. All throughout.
Here and there, where?
Everything she wrote was pure,
unadulterated truth as I remember it.
What do you think?
Actually, I haven't finished
the whole book yet, so…
Oh, but where is Mr. Nam Kang-ho?
Is he still shooting?
Yes, I think so.
-Did you have a fight?
-No.
You did.
-Yes.
-Kang-ho, this is Choi Soo-jin.
You didn't know?
No wonder you didn't write a blurb.
I mean, when did you guys fight
that you still haven't made up?
Even Ms. Choi is doing this much for you,
so why isn't Mr. Nam Kang-ho here?
I thought he'd be here.
He's shooting a scene.
Are you actually dating him seriously?
You know, you're only getting older.
You take care of your business,
and I'll take care of mine.
He could have at least called,
especially on a day like this.
Men categorize women they date, you know.
Women they would toy with
and women they would marry.
What? Are you saying
our daughter is just a plaything?
I'm telling her to carry herself better.
Be more modest!
Oh. Where did Ms. Choi go
in the middle of a meal?
If you barge in unannounced,
it's all or nothing.
You could either make her happy
or get an earful from her.
I'll let you decide.
Soo-jin.
-Yes?
-I have something to tell you.
I wanted to tell you sooner.
I'm really sorry.
I had no idea and acted like a fool
in front of Nam Kang-ho.
Jeez, you two
are making me look like an idiot.
I'm so sorry.
Then you should've kept it secret
until the end. Why tell me now?
It's making me mad.
I felt that you would forgive me
if I told you the truth.
Why do I keep getting treated
like a pushover by everyone that I like?
Who treats you like a pushover?
Let's head inside now. Talk later.
Okay.
Hi there.
Soo-jin, it's been a long time.
"Soo-jin"?
I would love to stay until the end,
but I have another appointment.
Thank you for today.
Thank you, Ms. Choi.
-It was a pleasure. See you again.
-Bye, Soo-jin.
Thank you.
Don't mention it.
Take care.
Well, would you mind if I address you…
Oh, it's okay to speak informally, sir.
Please do.
All right.
It is nice that a superstar like you
likes my daughter,
but she's very headstrong
and just isn't so amiable.
Please!
What do you mean "headstrong"?
She's been so independent.
I look up to Mi-ran.
So I'm learning lots of things from her.
-Such as?
-She's righteous and courageous.
She does good deeds
and acts like it's nothing special.
Once you get to know her,
it's impossible not to like her.
She's the most awesome woman
I've ever met in my life.
Mom, what's wrong?
Because I'm so happy!
Mom.
To hear that Nam Kang-ho looks up
to my daughter
makes me so happy.
If I had heard something like that
just once from your dad,
I'd never have written this book.
-See you again.
-Take care.
Bye, Mi-ran.
Mr. Nam, thank you so much.
Goodbye.
-See you again.
-Sure.
Have a safe trip home.
Goodbye!
Have a good day!
The gangster movie scenes
must have rubbed off on you.
Are you mad?
No.
I'm grateful.
Do you want to go somewhere
and talk some more?
Didn't you come straight from the set?
You must be tired.
Let's go home.
It's more comfortable that way.
Your house.
You don't want to?
-I guess you don't.
-I do.
I really meant what I said earlier.
That I look up to you.
And that you're the most awesome woman
I've ever met in my life.
I believe in quid pro quo,
so I'd like to return the favor
by saying something nice.
Even though I've met 100 guys,
you are the first
to have ever met my family.
That's a great honor.
They are probably ecstatic
and getting ahead of themselves by now.
Like we'll get married soon.
If one person changes her mind,
it wouldn't be too unrealistic.
It would still be unrealistic.
-I don't plan on getting married.
-What?
What's wrong?
Then why did you date all those men?
Meeting all those men
led me to decide not to get married.
However…
if I'm not going to get married anyway,
it doesn't seem like a bad idea
to date you.
I've dated men I didn't like before.
So, why not date a man that I like?
The thought just popped into my head.
How about a glass of wine?
Your wounds are all healed.
Since my first kiss was stolen,
the second kiss will be…
LOVE TO HATE YOU
Why am I letting myself play this game?
Nam Kang-ho means nothing to me.
Ms. Oh.
Could I…
perhaps sleep in your room tonight?
-There's no spare room left.
-What are you talking about?
What would people say
about you bringing your girlfriend in
as a stunt double
and also having her sleep in your room?
Well, I'm okay with it.
You can use my makeup remover
and lotion too.
Okay.
Honey.
Huh?
It's because I'm worried.
Sleep in my room.
Sleep in my room. And don't bother Ms. Oh.
No, really. It's not a bother at all.
I'm really okay with it!
Thank you, Ms. Oh.
Thank you for looking out
for my girlfriend.
Let's go.
Thank you anyway.
His revenge
is too harsh.
Did Se-na say anything to you?
About what--
About how we used to date.
Whoa, really?
Awesome!
After quitting college,
I met her at the theater company.
We were each other's first loves.
Our relationship ended badly.
It was a very long time ago,
and we haven't met since then.
Now, I have zero feelings for her.
Anything you'd like to know?
-No.
-Nothing at all?
Nothing.
That settles it.
Don't just stand there.
Lie down here and get some rest.
You want me to sleep there?
Of course.
That's fine!
I'll sleep here so you can sleep
comfortably in the bed.
You have a long day tomorrow.
So comfy.
Is it comfy?
Is it comfy to sleep on the couch
while telling a man to sleep in the bed?
You think this is why I asked you
to sleep here?
What kind of lunatic sleeps in the bed
and lets a woman sleep on the couch?
I didn't know you were so macho.
Look here, Ms. Yeo.
You are a patient.
You had 14 stitches in your back.
So if you sleep here, it means
you're trying to make me feel bad--
Oh God. Okay!
The bed is comfier, indeed.
Thanks.
Now what?
What's bugging you now?
You want me to wash up? Or brush my teeth?
Come on. One night without washing up
or brushing my teeth won't kill me.
Don't worry about me. Good night.
I am worried about you.
Damn it. I should have just slept
in Oh Se-na's room!
I still can't wrap my head around this.
I have never met a woman like you.
A woman like me?
Like what?
A dirty woman?
Damn it! Ouch!
No, not that.
Stop moving around and stay still.
If that's not it, then what?
There were a lot of guys back there.
Why did you have to do it yourself?
You're a woman.
"A woman"?
If you noticed the danger,
why not tell one of the stunt actors?
Why did you take it upon yourself?
"A woman"?
Mr. Nam Kang-ho.
If someone saves you from danger,
are you going to complain
because a woman saved you?
If your life is in danger
and a woman comes to your rescue,
are you going to say,
"No, don't come. Why did you come?"
Why would you care
whether it's a man or a woman?
Your life is in danger.
No, what I'm saying is
that you could have died.
And? If I die, I die.
Women are always damsels in distress.
And men show up at the right time.
Then pow!
I really hate scenes like that.
In fact, I don't like
the movie script very much.
What is that?
The woman is weak and pitiful,
and the man comes to save her.
It's super annoying.
But why is he watching the outtakes?
This is your second movie with Mr. Yoo,
and you don't know?
I don't know.
He's been inspired.
Looks like he's going to edit the script.
Sure, she can be physically weak,
but she even lacks the will.
Her man is wrongfully incarcerated.
She's forced to be the boss's mistress.
She should get revenge,
not just sit there!
Well, it's not my place to critique.
Where are you going?
To wash up and brush my teeth.
This late at night
and just the two of us again.
All the way to Seoul like this?
Even the music is sensual!
KANG-HO
Yeah, Kang-ho.
So she's staying in my room
because there are no spare rooms.
Who is?
-Ms. Yeo?
-Yeah.
Do I snore when I sleep?
Huh?
Yeah. No. Sometimes?
"Sometimes"?
How loud?
Like an electric toothbrush?
Electric toothbrush?
What's she doing now?
Sleeping?
No, she's washing up.
Yeah? Then sleep in the bed together.
If you sleep on the couch
like a pathetic fool,
she'll feel too bad to relax.
Lie next to her and comfort her
if she says she's hurting.
Caress her until she falls asleep.
Comfort her.
Caress her
until she falls asleep.
I'll call you when I'm done driving.
Shall we stop by the rest area
and get something to drink?
I'd like that.
What?
Oh, I must be mad!
Everything about him is attractive!
What's wrong?
I'm going to use the ladies' room.
Oh no, my bangs are all flat!
Let's see.
Like this.
First, ask a lot of questions
like you're interested.
You know, like which elementary
and middle school she went to.
And then casually touch her.
No, not like a pervert!
You know, like picking lint off of her
even though there isn't any.
And then, when the mood is right,
say stuff like,
"Wow, you have really long fingers."
Try that.
I noticed she had long fingers.
And keep looking at her hands
like you want to touch them.
Even if you stare at hands in a lewd way,
it won't make you look weird.
And if she just falls asleep…
Wait, she could just be pretending
to be asleep.
So don't give up. Just grab her hands.
And if you feel like
you've stirred her heart,
tell her how you feel.
I'll win Na-eun over as fast as I can
and try to provide support--
Na-eun.
What are you doing here?
What are you doing here, Mr. Do?
I've acted in a way that would put him off
instead of trying to seduce him because…
I lost the will to fight.
After seeing Oh Se-na's true feelings.
Are you asleep?
Are you sleeping?
Does what I'm doing warrant cursing?
It's just that
I've never met a woman like you.
The type of women I know are
those who try to turn their lives around
through marriage,
those who try to turn their lives around
again through remarriage,
or those who turn their lives around
and then discard their men.
Those types are all I've known.
Women who only do
what's beneficial for them,
not do things that could
put them in harm's way.
We all work on our birthdays.
It's not a national holiday.
EPISODE 8
THE WAY YOU CHANGE ME
You have to have it your way, don't you?
You flirted with me
to keep me quiet about Mi-ran's deal.
And now you're flirting again
to hook Mi-ran up with Nam Kang-ho?
Don't you like
Kang-ho?
Why do you like Mi-ran?
Yes, my friend Mi-ran
is a fabulous woman by any standards,
but is she worth the trouble
for a top star?
Not just the top star but his boss too?
It's because Ms. Yeo
is a really special person.
I know she didn't like Kang-ho
that much at first.
Apparently, he was on some kind
of power trip.
But he didn't do that
because he dislikes Ms. Yeo
but because he is unusually wary
of women in general.
Kang-ho has done countless shows
with many beautiful actresses,
but he never had feelings for any of them.
Not a single one.
But somehow,
he met the right person this time.
It's my goal to see Kang-ho become
a really successful actor
and make sure he becomes a happy man.
When you came to confront me
about the contract,
you were concerned for your friend.
I'm concerned for Kang-ho too.
That's why I was hoping
that we could be a team.
I'm sorry.
I was crude in my choice of words.
Na-eun.
Do you want to be on my team?
Kang-ho is not the kind of man
to break a woman's heart.
He will only have eyes for one woman
and love her.
Celebrities aren't all that, right?
As you can see, they are also human.
Well, I think he's nicer than I imagined.
Who, Kang-ho?
Everyone sees him as a nice guy.
There are a lot of nice stories about him.
No, I meant you.
When I read the contract,
I really thought you were a scoundrel.
But now that you've gotten to know me,
do I seem nice?
When you ask so bluntly…
I think it would be a lot of fun
if we teamed up.
The four of us can go places
and hang out together.
Oh.
That'd be difficult
if you have a boyfriend--
I don't have a boyfriend.
If I did, I wouldn't have let you
pick me up from the airport.
I guess not.
Do you have someone?
I'm just like you.
Oh, okay!
Hallelujah!
INCOMING CALL
GRACE
Yes, ma'am.
I heard about the accident.
I just found out.
She wasn't hurt badly.
You don't have to worry.
I'll call you later.
That's a relief.
I have to deal with the insurance,
so tell me where she got treated.
Yeah. I'll call you back later.
Where are you right now?
I'm driving right now.
Oh, you're still on your way back.
Call me when you get back,
or you can just come to my house.
I'll call you.
Mi-ran was correct.
Mi-ran is right.
It doesn't hurt to be suspicious
of men you don't know.
I know it sounds really weird
for me to explain this,
but she is not
my girlfriend.
It's weirder
that she's not your girlfriend.
Right.
I'll tell you now
so I don't waste your time.
I won't be on the same team as you.
Why would I be on the same team
as you and Mr. Nam?
I'm on Mi-ran's team.
Even the back of your head is pretty.
I wonder what's going on
inside that head of yours
and what you think of me.
I wonder if what I'm doing is okay.
Now I can do this without the meds.
And I can do even more.
What on earth have you done to me?
How about if we keep this going?
I like you.
Yeo Mi-ran.
Get the door. Someone's here.
Oh, I slept next to you
because you kept trying to lie
on your wounded back.
You understand, right?
Okay.
I won't ask why you had to hold me
when you could support me with your back.
So-jeong was to be captured
and live in misery as the boss's mistress.
But the director will change it
so that she's secretly training.
What training?
Fight training.
She's planning an escape.
No. Let me.
She's planning her revenge,
to kill the boss.
How will she train to fight?
Is someone gonna teach her?
-The thugs.
-She doesn't learn.
Self-learned.
So not only does the story change,
but the entire character does, right?
Are you okay?
You got hurt because of me.
Oh! No, I'm fine.
I heard you got stitches.
I'm really sorry.
No, it's okay.
Hey, be good to her now.
She saved your life.
You were awesome!
Wow, I'm such a big fan now.
These people no longer see me
as just Nam Kang-ho's girlfriend.
I can't do that.
How can I throw knives?
Don't you worry. Your stunt double will.
What about getting beaten up?
I have to do it, don't I?
That's also for your stunt double.
Getting beat up needs to look convincing.
But she's hurt. Can she do it?
Of course not!
Her stitches may split open.
The director will push Ms. Yeo's parts
to the very end
so that she can film after she recovers.
Her sutures will be removed
in about ten days.
I'd say she can start in two weeks.
She won't say yes to a bigger role.
She's busy working as a lawyer.
Even now, she's not enjoying it.
She's only here because I asked her.
Huh? She seemed to be enjoying it.
Do you know Mi-ran better than I do?
Oh dear.
How come I know
what she's into better than you do?
Fine. I can at least ask.
Of course I'll do it! I want to!
The sutures will be removed in ten days.
I can start in two weeks.
Her sutures will be removed
in about ten days.
I'd say she can start in two weeks.
I knew it.
A master recognizes another master.
I wish it could be an action blockbuster,
like Mission Impossible.
That doesn't fit the plot, right?
How come I know
what she's into better than you do?
No, don't do it.
Huh? Why?
You're the type
who shouldn't do stunt work.
You have to be cautious and meticulous.
Dive in like that,
and you'll get hurt again.
Do you really want to die?
I don't like your tone.
You make me worry. That's why.
Even now, you're driving by yourself
without telling me.
I'll take care of my business.
We can't keep this going
if you act like this!
How about if we keep this going?
Mr. Nam. Don't get stressed over me.
Have a good day on set!
She totally heard it.
All of it.
I like you.
Yeo Mi-ran.
There must be
a romantic bone or two in me.
But the life span of love hormones
is three months at least
and maybe three years at most.
Three years? No way.
Nam Kang-ho said he liked me.
You said you'd seduce him and dump him.
Looks like you succeeded.
Congratulations.
That is so unlike you.
You should be excited.
Don't take me for a fool.
Things don't always go the way you want.
Those who think too highly of themselves
mess up big time.
You messed it up. Damn it.
How?
How did I mess up?
Dude, you already got dumped
even before I got that call from Grace!
No, I didn't. She didn't say no.
But now that you messed up
in front of Na-eun, they will hate me too.
Like attracts like, remember?
Like attracts like, remember?
Nam Kang-ho might be hiding something too.
It might even be worse.
Seeing how he's so good at acting.
So, are you going to kick him to the curb
during or after the contract?
I don't know.
You're wondering if you'll dump him
rather than when to dump him, aren't you?
I'm just craving alcohol!
Should we have just one drink?
No way!
You can't drink until your wounds heal.
Also, I've never seen you have
just one drink.
One usually turns into ten.
I only confessed my feelings
because you told me to.
God, she was in so much pain
from her injury.
What possessed me to think
that was my chance?
You've shot countless romance movies.
Was that really the best you could do?
Isn't that Stone Age romance?
Talking to the back
of a sleeping woman's head?
Jeez, that sucks.
Oh, and you're so hip that you sleep
with everyone who flirts with you, right?
I knew you'd get in big trouble
one of these days,
but instead, I did!
The only woman I ever slept with
was Grace, okay?
Hey, stop taking it out on me, coward!
Call her. Call Mi-ran!
Meet her in person,
and say it to her face!
She's not answering?
How many times did you try?
Once.
Damn! Are you kidding me?
What are you doing?
-I'm making a call.
-Wait, don't do it!
-Don't!
-Hold up!
It's ringing!
Hello?
What now? What do I say?
Ask her to meet you.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Oh, uh, yes.
I'll tell you in person.
Where are you?
I'm in the middle of something
with Na-eun.
-Why?
-I'll ask her and call you back.
Ask me what?
He's asking us to meet him and Mr. Do.
The nerve of that guy!
What if we meet again?
Does he think
he can change my mind about him?
Are you saying that Mr. Do had Nam Kang-ho
asked me so he could see you?
What else could it be?
Nam Kang-ho can meet you alone.
Why would he want me there?
Wow, that's ridiculous.
I can see what he's trying to do.
Is it a breach of contract
if you refuse to see him?
Oh, that's not in the contract.
Oh.
Then it will just give a bad impression.
By the way,
even after the contract is over,
Nam Kang-ho will be your client, right?
Yeah, probably?
Oh no.
Then he has to see you
as a competent lawyer.
Can you hold it together
in front of Do Won-jun?
Me?
Of course. I've already seen Do Won-jun
for who he really is.
So,
are you meeting them?
Yeah.
Now I want to find out
how strong your resolve is.
Thank you.
Wow, thanks to my hotshot friend,
I'm at Nam Kang-ho's house.
Can I take a selfie?
You're already so excited.
Will you be able to keep your cool?
I'm excited about the house.
And this is Nam Kang-ho's house,
not Do Won-jun's.
If you don't want wine,
then we have soju and beer too.
Wine's fine.
How about you?
She can't drink until her wounds heal.
Are you still with us?
Are you drinking that
so she's not the only one
not drinking?
Wow, this really is a rare sight.
You know he's not like his image, right?
He has zero consideration for women.
You two are the first women to ever
set foot in Kang-ho's house until now.
No way!
I'll tell you now so you don't think ill
of Kang-ho just because of me.
I'm the type to flirt all the time.
But Kang-ho, he never flirts.
A wall. A human barrier!
Kang-ho is different from me.
-What is your definition of flirting?
-Huh?
Why ask? We're adults.
Well, I don't know what it is.
Because I've never flirted with anyone.
If you're dating, you are.
If not, you're not.
But you've seen me flirt a lot.
With 100 guys, right?
-One hundred?
-Yes.
I don't have an exact count,
but that includes short encounters.
It's not 100.
How could she have 100 flings
and still become a lawyer?
She's been really busy.
That's what I thought.
Wow, Ms. Yeo. You're bluffing.
One hundred guys, jeez!
No.
In my experience,
she doesn't bluff about anything.
She said she could do a bit of stunt work
but ended up saving a person's life.
That night when she drove me home,
I thought she was a pro racer.
I almost died.
If she said she could spin hay into gold,
I'd believe her 100%.
You paint such a nice picture of me.
Thank you for trusting me so much.
So back to flirting.
If one thinks they're in a relationship,
but the other insists it's flirting,
is it just flirting?
The moment you tell the person
that you like them.
I like you.
From that moment, it's no longer flirting.
Na-eun, may I give you
a tour of the house?
The owner of the house
should give the tour, not you.
Sure. I'll show you around,
even though there's not much to look at.
Okay.
There's a lot to look at.
You've paid attention to every detail.
Did you do it yourself?
I did it myself.
I don't like to go out much.
-So I spend a lot of time at home.
-I see.
You are very talented.
May I sit over there?
She's met so many guys
and never found one person she liked?
Who, Mi-ran?
I don't know.
If you only try to see the good,
you see good people,
and if you only see the bad,
you see bad people, right?
Mi-ran has a tendency
to see all men in a bad light.
Why?
Mostly because she started off
with a bad guy, I guess.
I'll give it to you!
-Please stop!
-What's the matter?
Mi-ran used to date a really cool guy
back in high school.
What the hell?
He looked amazing,
and what he did was more amazing.
But he ended up asking me out too.
He was a cool boy.
So I went out with him out of curiosity.
I wasn't close with Mi-ran at the time,
but I felt bad.
Hey!
Why are you trying to look cool?
Take your hands out.
She's not even my friend,
but she's saying sorry.
What are you doing?
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
You can have him if you want.
I don't care.
Move!
That's when I was smitten with Mi-ran.
I'm a person, you know!
So I dumped him right there
and started following Mi-ran around,
and we became friends.
Hey!
"A good person isn't necessarily
a good man."
That's what Mi-ran always says.
Whenever she tries dating again,
the results are the same.
Oh, it's not like she's loose or anything.
Please don't get the wrong idea.
Oh, no.
"She's been cool since she was young."
That's what I was thinking.
I regret having made this contract.
If I had left you alone,
you might have
seen Kang-ho
in a much more positive light.
I think I made a mistake.
I was greedy
in trying to get you and squash the rumor
all at the same time.
Why do you think
I'm the one for him?
That's more puzzling to me.
You didn't like me at first,
and then suddenly…
I know.
It's because you're his one and only.
The only woman he has feelings for.
I'm telling you,
this is not an easy thing to happen.
Well, does Mr. Nam Kang-ho take…
some kind of medication?
What?
I wasn't meant to hear it, but I did.
Oh.
Nam Kang-ho seems different
from Do Won-jun.
He really seems to like you.
Mr. Do isn't such a bad person either.
Don't see him in a bad light
just because he's handsome.
Well, it's a form of panic disorder.
He has trouble breathing
in an extremely stressful situation.
And the stressful situation is
when he has to make
physical contact with women.
So whenever he shot a scene
where he had to be close to a woman,
he took medicine.
To prevent the attack.
Now I can do this without the meds.
And I can do even more.
What on earth have you done to me?
Amazing!
I used to do this with a drawing compass.
What? No way!
Do you want to see it?
Is there an ice pick or something?
Maybe someone has a pocketknife.
No. I mean it!
Bring me a pocketknife!
Don't do it.
Cookie delivery is here!
I baked them myself at home,
so please enjoy.
-Thank you.
-Enjoy!
Thank you.
You were so cool earlier.
Thank you.
He must've been like that
after breaking up with me.
Ms. Oh.
You want me to try some stunts myself?
Yes.
I can't. I'm not even athletic.
And there's no time to practice.
Not the cool action scenes.
How about the scene where you get beat up?
I'm sorry?
So-jeong is a character
who trained herself to kill the boss.
She's well-trained in kicking,
punching, and stabbing
but new to getting hit.
So I don't think you have to try hard
to make that look good.
You've done more research than I have.
If you do scenes like that yourself
and not the cool scenes,
everyone here would be very impressed.
Including Kang-ho.
Cut! That was good. Moving on!
Aren't you threatened by me?
Honey.
You were sleeping,
and it was to the back of your head,
but I shared my feelings directly.
If you're turning me down, tell me.
Why would you help out Se-na?
I know that Se-na is trying
to get back together with me.
But I really hate her.
A lot, very much, extremely!
Then you'd be fine
even if I helped her out a little.
What's the issue?
Do you really feel nothing?
Nothing towards me?
No. I feel a whole lot.
Even though it's a contract,
it's hard for an average girl
to date a top star.
It really sucks.
I'm well-off on my own,
but to be treated like Cinderella,
who is dating a star,
is a crappy feeling.
Regardless of how I feel,
I'll honor the contract, so don't worry.
Oh, and you did nothing wrong.
It's all just my inferiority complex.
But I don't know how to get over that
because that's just how I feel.
If we could control how we feel,
life would be easy.
But it's hard because we can't.
I thought a job was just a job for you.
Us pretending to be a couple
is also part of the job.
So, why do you feel that bad?
You've done worse, like drive me home.
Are you sure
you're treating this as just a job?
No feelings attached?
Okay. There were many times
when I felt my heart flutter.
You tried so hard. How could I not?
But the crappy feeling is overwhelmingly
stronger than the flutters.
That means if I become a nobody,
we'll have a chance.
Is this a TV show?
Even for a script, it's a bit far-fetched.
You are already who you are.
How could you possibly become a nobody?
It feels good to know
that Nam Kang-ho likes me this much.
So let me just hang on
to that good feeling.
Let's end it on a good note.
Class warfare seems easier.
At least we'd know we're being exploited.
But what if the enemy is your own family?
Through Eun-hee's life, we see how unfair
"family peace" is
in a patriarchal society.
We have to go now.
It's filled with insults
to me and my mother!
I'm going to sue you for defamation!
Sure, go ahead!
You better get yourself a good lawyer.
Because our daughter
will be representing me.
KIM EUN-HEE PUBLICATION SIGNING EVEN
CHEW IT TO TASTE I
I'm a bit prettier in person, aren't I?
-Yes!
-Yes!
I was blown away
to see how beautiful you are.
I probably got blown away even more.
I thought you were Mi-ran's older sister,
not her mother.
-You are stunningly beautiful!
-What?
Oh my goodness! You're too kind!
Well, people often tell me
that I look like my husband's mistress
or Mi-ran's stepmother.
-Stop it.
-But it's true.
Well, then. Congratulations
to Ms. Kim Eun-hee and her new book!
-Congratulations!
-Congratulations!
Oh, thank you so much!
I mean, to be sitting here
with superstar Choi Soo-jin…
This feels like a dream.
-Did that hurt?
-It did!
This is real!
It is! Oh my!
It's real, ma'am.
Your life will only get better,
thanks to your well-raised daughter.
Attorney Yeo's work is flawless.
It's very much to my liking.
I'm so happy to have this chance
to do something for her.
Oh my God. And the book is so fun!
Thank you so much!
It seems she exaggerated certain parts
to make it more fun.
Dad!
"Exaggerated"?
Which part?
Well, here and there. All throughout.
Here and there, where?
Everything she wrote was pure,
unadulterated truth as I remember it.
What do you think?
Actually, I haven't finished
the whole book yet, so…
Oh, but where is Mr. Nam Kang-ho?
Is he still shooting?
Yes, I think so.
-Did you have a fight?
-No.
You did.
-Yes.
-Kang-ho, this is Choi Soo-jin.
You didn't know?
No wonder you didn't write a blurb.
I mean, when did you guys fight
that you still haven't made up?
Even Ms. Choi is doing this much for you,
so why isn't Mr. Nam Kang-ho here?
I thought he'd be here.
He's shooting a scene.
Are you actually dating him seriously?
You know, you're only getting older.
You take care of your business,
and I'll take care of mine.
He could have at least called,
especially on a day like this.
Men categorize women they date, you know.
Women they would toy with
and women they would marry.
What? Are you saying
our daughter is just a plaything?
I'm telling her to carry herself better.
Be more modest!
Oh. Where did Ms. Choi go
in the middle of a meal?
If you barge in unannounced,
it's all or nothing.
You could either make her happy
or get an earful from her.
I'll let you decide.
Soo-jin.
-Yes?
-I have something to tell you.
I wanted to tell you sooner.
I'm really sorry.
I had no idea and acted like a fool
in front of Nam Kang-ho.
Jeez, you two
are making me look like an idiot.
I'm so sorry.
Then you should've kept it secret
until the end. Why tell me now?
It's making me mad.
I felt that you would forgive me
if I told you the truth.
Why do I keep getting treated
like a pushover by everyone that I like?
Who treats you like a pushover?
Let's head inside now. Talk later.
Okay.
Hi there.
Soo-jin, it's been a long time.
"Soo-jin"?
I would love to stay until the end,
but I have another appointment.
Thank you for today.
Thank you, Ms. Choi.
-It was a pleasure. See you again.
-Bye, Soo-jin.
Thank you.
Don't mention it.
Take care.
Well, would you mind if I address you…
Oh, it's okay to speak informally, sir.
Please do.
All right.
It is nice that a superstar like you
likes my daughter,
but she's very headstrong
and just isn't so amiable.
Please!
What do you mean "headstrong"?
She's been so independent.
I look up to Mi-ran.
So I'm learning lots of things from her.
-Such as?
-She's righteous and courageous.
She does good deeds
and acts like it's nothing special.
Once you get to know her,
it's impossible not to like her.
She's the most awesome woman
I've ever met in my life.
Mom, what's wrong?
Because I'm so happy!
Mom.
To hear that Nam Kang-ho looks up
to my daughter
makes me so happy.
If I had heard something like that
just once from your dad,
I'd never have written this book.
-See you again.
-Take care.
Bye, Mi-ran.
Mr. Nam, thank you so much.
Goodbye.
-See you again.
-Sure.
Have a safe trip home.
Goodbye!
Have a good day!
The gangster movie scenes
must have rubbed off on you.
Are you mad?
No.
I'm grateful.
Do you want to go somewhere
and talk some more?
Didn't you come straight from the set?
You must be tired.
Let's go home.
It's more comfortable that way.
Your house.
You don't want to?
-I guess you don't.
-I do.
I really meant what I said earlier.
That I look up to you.
And that you're the most awesome woman
I've ever met in my life.
I believe in quid pro quo,
so I'd like to return the favor
by saying something nice.
Even though I've met 100 guys,
you are the first
to have ever met my family.
That's a great honor.
They are probably ecstatic
and getting ahead of themselves by now.
Like we'll get married soon.
If one person changes her mind,
it wouldn't be too unrealistic.
It would still be unrealistic.
-I don't plan on getting married.
-What?
What's wrong?
Then why did you date all those men?
Meeting all those men
led me to decide not to get married.
However…
if I'm not going to get married anyway,
it doesn't seem like a bad idea
to date you.
I've dated men I didn't like before.
So, why not date a man that I like?
The thought just popped into my head.
How about a glass of wine?
Your wounds are all healed.
Since my first kiss was stolen,
the second kiss will be…
