[Ji Chang-wook]
[Kim You-jung]
[Backstreet Rookie]
Saet-byul, hold on! Don't go!
Saet-byul!
This is the man that I love.
Sorry?
Hello, welcome.
I'm Choi Dae-hyun, the store owner
of the Shinseong-dong branch.
What is he?
Saet-byul,
he's not Dae-hyun! He's fake.
I'm the real Choi Dae-hyun!
He's the real one.
You're just a consultant.
What?
Let's go back to our store, Mr. Choi.
Saet-byul, no. Don't leave.
Mr. Consultant, you should go
and do your job.
Saet-byul? This is my store.
This is my store, I said!
Hey! Why are my feet stuck?
Saet-byul, don't leave me.
No!
Don't leave.
My goodness.
I'm getting cramps.
Both of my feet are cramping.
What kind of a dream is this?
My feet!
Saet-byul!
Saet-byul?
Assistant Manager, you need to go to work.
I'm coming in.
Saet-byul?
[Mr. Choi,]
[I think this is the end for you and I.]
[Just like how you got your dream job,]
[I'm going to work on getting mine.]
[I got the money back
from the Manbok Real Estate scam.]
[I don't want things to get awkward
between us, so I'm just leaving quietly.]
[Please tell Ms. Gong and Mr. Choi
that I have left.]
[Please accept my small gift for you.]
[Thank you for everything.]
[Good luck!]
-That's very heavy.
-Thank you.
Saet-byul, you're much stronger
than you look.
-You're very good at the job, too.
-Thank you.
What brought you all the way
to this rural town?
Why didn't you just get a job in Seoul?
I love flowers.
I love that you're here with us,
but young people usually complain
about how boring and uncomfortable
the countryside is.
I love small towns.
It's refreshing
for both the eyes and the mind.
And I like how there are
no convenience stores around here.
Dad!
Young-kyun, come here and say hi.
She'll be working here with us from today.
Her name is Jung Saet-byul. He's my son.
Hello, nice to meet you.
-Hi.
-What brings you here?
-Dad,
-Yes?
I need to buy two books to study.
You already bought some last week.
That was for Math,
and this time it's for English and Korean.
Is that right?
Sure.
-Is this enough?
-Yes, thank you!
You're welcome. Goodness.
[Statement of Damage]
I have a very important question
about the real estate scam case,
which brought me here.
Sure, go ahead.
You know Jung Saet-byul, right?
Yes, she was the victim
of the Manbok Real Estate fraud.
She was here a few days ago.
Was there anything peculiar about her?
-Sorry?
-Maybe where she plans to go
once she gets her money back,
or anything important like that.
Detective!
This is very important.
Answer me right now.
Who are you?
Are you trying to investigate me?
I'm the store owner of a convenience store
in Shinseong-dong, Jongno,
and Saet-byul disappeared.
You said that it was something urgent,
so I thought it'd be something important.
Detective!
I have to find Saet-byul.
It's really urgent for me.
It's really important.
Could you at least tell me the last
four digits of another victim's number?
I'll take this since you're so desperate,
but no. Now, get going.
Just this once.
Detective?
I'll be waiting for your call.
I have to find Saet-byul!
Okay, Dae-hyun. Bye.
Saet-byul is gone.
-Really?
-Yes.
Hold on.
Saet-byul has moments like this,
but she always comes back.
Don't worry about it.
That's good, then.
Why did you call me here?
The reason I wanted to see you
is because I got a call from my dad.
He wants me to go on a blind date.
A blind date? Are you so old
that you should have an arranged marriage?
Are you that old?
No, I'm not. We're about the same age.
We really are.
But my dad says
that marriage makes a man stable.
That's why I told him
that I have a girlfriend.
And then?
Then, Dad said
-that he's going to kill me.
-What?
He thinks I've become a liar
since moving to Seoul.
Maybe he'll believe you
if he sees me in person.
Geum-bi!
Let's visit him tomorrow.
-Tomorrow?
-Yes!
If I had love in my heart,
I'd want the expiration date to be
10,000 years away.
Dal-sik!
Just call me 10,000 Years.
Hwang 10,000 Years.
No, that doesn't sound good at all.
I don't want to call you that.
2, 3!
Give it here.
You little
Young-kyun!
See you again.
-Do you want to go play some pool?
-Sure.
What was that?
You can't just go like that.
Anyone that gets on my nerves around here
is dead.
You're a clueless girl, aren't you?
Of course. I'm new here.
Not that I want to know.
Okay. Are you a fighter?
Fine. Come at me.
Hey!
-My arm!
-Money.
You're dead.
Are you okay?
Here. Now you can buy your books.
Darn it. Who do you think you are?
I'm doomed now!
Do you know who their older brothers are?
Nobody can beat them!
What am I supposed to do now?
Jin-tae!
But
I was just trying to help.
Maybe I should've minded my own business.
I guess I'm becoming just like him.
[Mr. Choi]
[Mr. Choi]
How did he know
that I was thinking about him?
How did he know
that I was thinking about him?
How did he know
that I was thinking about him?
[Mr. Choi]
[Mr. Choi]
[Mr. Choi]
[The call has been rejected.]
Gosh.
All right.
Let's eat.
It's good, isn't it?
I told you that I was great
at making ramyeon!
I have to admit it's good.
Mr. Choi's ramyeon was delicious.
[Rich Man Han's Land]
[Rich Man Han's Land,
Man-pyeong's Property]
Here we are.
Where's your dad?
He's probably working at the fields
right now.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Dal-sik, you're back!
-Yes.
Hello.
What are you doing?
It's the dance my dad used to dance
back in the day.
-Really?
-Like this.
There he is!
Hello, sir!
My name is Hwang Geum-bi.
I'm just an assistant to the chairman.
Sir, you're back.
-Hello, how have you been?
-I've been great.
-Where's Dad?
-Right this way.
Chairman Han, your son is here.
-What?
-Dad!
Here's our Seoul beggar.
Look at her. I wasn't lying.
Hello, sir. My name is Hwang Geum-bi.
Nice to see you!
I'm Dal-sik's dad, Han Man-pyeong.
Go over there and have some of the thing.
Here's some watermelon.
-Enjoy.
-Thank you!
-Thank you.
-Thank you!
Dad, how is farming these days?
I'm not the one farming.
Mother Nature does all the work.
How are the cows growing?
I'm not the one raising them.
Nature raises them.
What about the orchard?
I'm not the one growing the fruits.
The land grows them.
My dad is not the best talker.
Stop it.
At least you spray
all the pesticides yourself.
I'm not the one spraying the pesticides.
The helicopter does.
[What? He even owns a helicopter?]
Speaking of which, where is it?
Where did you park the helicopter?
We built a new helicopter pad over there.
There's our helicopter.
How do you get up there?
We're going to build cable cars soon.
[What? Cable cars?]
[How crazy rich is he?]
Geum-bi, this is our land.
Where?
Everything after we passed the tollbooths
to all the fields you see here.
That's all our land.
She's a guest. Don't make her feel
uncomfortable by talking like that.
It's barely the size
of a grasshopper's forehead.
You're right. It's the size
of a grasshopper's forehead.
Geum-bi, what does your father do?
Yes, well,
he runs a very small education business.
It's very small.
An educator!
Such good work he's doing.
Sir, I came here to tell you
that Dal-sik doesn't need to go
on blind dates.
Goodness.
How did a beautiful woman like you meet
someone so pathetic like my son?
Dal-sik doesn't need a blind date,
but Geum-bi, you do.
I know the best eligible bachelor
here in Onyang.
Dad, stop talking nonsense!
This is exactly why I don't bring
anyone here.
You think you can get married?
Since it's rush hour,
let's take the helicopter instead.
That's the helicopter pad.
Thank you. This is my first time
riding a helicopter.
Dal-sik, it's time for you
to quit the thing and do the thing.
Dal-sik, it's time for you
to quit the thing and do the thing.
[Translation: Dal-sik, it's time for you
to stop drawing webtoons]
Dal-sik, it's time for you
to quit the thing and do the thing.
Dal-sik, it's time for you
to quit the thing and do the thing.
[and come home to learn the business.]
[and come home to learn the business.]
[and come home to learn the business.]
No, I'm just like you.
I have to make it on my own.
No, I'm just like you.
I have to make it on my own.
There will be no soup for you
if you keep this up.
I always liked the vegetables in soup
more than the soup itself,
so you can have all the soup, Dad.
Geum-bi, I think you're all the things
and whatnot.
Geum-bi, I think you're all the things
and whatnot.
[Translation: Geum-bi,
you're so kind and beautiful,]
Geum-bi, I think you're all the things
and whatnot.
Geum-bi, I think you're all the things
and whatnot.
[that I like you very much.]
[that I like you very much.]
[that I like you very much.]
Sorry?
Sorry?
He's saying that he likes you
because you're so kind and beautiful.
Do you know how to do the thing?
Sorry?
Isn't that Saet
Dal-sik, your dad is talking!
They say if it's not good,
it's not the end.
Geum-bi, you're really great.
Stop!
-Goodness.
-I'll come with you!
Dad, just wait for us, okay?
Over there.
-Duck!
-Ducking.
-You really saw Saet-byul?
-Yes, I did.
I have the eyes of a hawk, 20-20 vision.
Where?
Where do I go?
Geum-bi, where are you?
I'm right here.
My goodness.
I can't tell you apart from the flowers,
not even with my hawk's eyes.
-Goodness, you!
-Don't scare me like that.
Come on.
Geum-bi.
My goodness!
-Why?
-As a cartoonist,
I know that it'll be much more dramatic
if Dae-hyun appeared instead of us.
I see.
Why did she come all the way here?
-My family owns this property, too.
-Really?
Our property starts--
I get it. Call Dae-hyun already.
Why is she all the way here in Onyang?
I can't understand her.
Dae-hyun, don't be surprised
and just listen to me.
Saet-byul is working at my family's farm.
Send me the address. Thank you.
[You need to pay for parking.]
[Pay]
Guess who it is! We're back!
Where did everyone go?
Who are you?
-Who are you?
-Are you a thief?
There's a thief in Shinseong-dong now
because I'm not around for a few days?
-Get him.
-How was your trip?
Come here! We've got a thief.
Are you okay?
He's the new owner of the store!
-The new owner?
-Yes.
-Wake him back up!
-I don't know how!
-Come on!
-I got it.
He's good.
-My gosh.
-You sold the convenience store?
No, Dae-hyun is now working
at the headquarters.
This store is directly managed
by the headquarters now.
Let's talk outside. Come on.
Bye now.
-I'm sorry.
-Sure.
My goodness.
Did you have fun?
Zhangjiajie was incredible.
And we told Jang-mi
about how you're doing.
Did you?
You guys.
Oh, right. We have a present for you.
What's this?
This is awesome!
It'll just make you want to go like this.
Mr. Choi?
How did you get here?
What do you mean, how?
You found me, so what makes you think
that I wouldn't be able to find you?
Hey, Jung Saet-byul.
Why did you lie to me?
This isn't the end for you and I.
This is the start.
It's all set and done.
I'm busy.
Saet-byul
Why is it raining?
Are you the guy who broke
my little brother's arm?
No, it's the lady over there.
What? You got beat up by a girl?
How embarrassing. You idiot!
Gosh!
Saet-byul, what's going on?
Did something happen?
No.
I was just helping someone out.
Excuse me,
we're having a really important talk
right now.
I don't think this is a good way
to talk to us.
Do you mind leaving?
Do I hear a Seoul dog barking?
You two can talk all you want
as you die.
Saet-byul, choose.
-Sorry?
-If you choose number one,
you'll see a completely new side of me.
If you choose number two,
you'll see the man you've known.
The choice is yours.
Well
Don't think about it too much.
Just choose.
Mr. Choi,
I'll go with number one.
Good choice.
[His heels are touching the ground,
meaning that he's not light on his feet.]
[It's a typical prep pose
for right-handed people.]
[He's the type to jab more than to hook.]
[This means that he's nothing
but an untrained street fighter.]
[If he's throws a 1, 2, straight,]
[I'll hit him back with a counterpunch.]
Mr. Choi! He's so cool.
[Here comes the 1, 2, straight,
as I predicted.]
[Then, I'll go with]
-Mr. Choi!
-What was that?
Mr. Choi?
Are you okay?
-Mr. Choi!
-Is that it?
I've never seen such a wuss before.
Did you see that?
I can't believe I was slightly scared.
How dare you hurt Mr. Choi?
Mr. Choi, hold on. Okay?
Breathe!
I'm the boss here. Get her.
Come at me.
What was that? Come on.
How dare you?
Don't you dare get in my way again.
Okay! Let me go.
-Mr. Choi!
-Gosh.
What are you doing? Get out quick!
Go!
Mr. Choi, are you okay?
They're all gone. Wake up.
Mr. Choi?
Hey!
Where did they all go?
Where are they?
They all ran away
because they're scared of you.
What? I scared them away?
Those kids.
They're smart ones.
Kids are so smart these days.
I'm totally fine.
-Is your face okay?
-I'm not hurt at all.
I think your jaw is crooked.
I'm fine.
That was a close call. For them.
It's nice here.
I thought of
about 100 questions,
no, 500 questions to ask you
on my way here,
but I'm not going to ask you any of them.
I saw that you're here,
and that you're doing well.
I feel much better now.
I can now wait in peace.
-Wait for who?
-You, Saet-byul.
I'm going to wait for you to come back.
And I'm going to wait for you
to answer my question.
-Mr. Choi
-Saet-byul,
don't change your address officially.
You're family to us.
I'll collect all of your mail
and keep them safe,
so don't worry.
I'm not going to call or text you
from now on.
Of course,
well,
if you happen to text first, I'll respond.
Goodness.
How come you're not smelling me today?
Don't I smell good?
I put on the perfume that you got me.
I'll get going now.
Jung Saet-byul, the punching bag
at Taekwondo, ten years ago.
You thanked me back then, right?
I loved hearing that.
I started helping others
only after hearing that.
So, thank you, Saet-byul.
I'll wait for you.
And
I wanted to say something.
Saet-byul,
you're quite the woman, too!
How did he know?
What am I supposed to do
if he suddenly shows up and acts all cool?
That was amazing!
What am I supposed to do
if he's not going text,
nor call?
Is he saying that he'll wait for me
or not?
I miss him more now that I've seen him.
[You have a new text message.]
What?
So, he's going to send me pictures?
[Shinseong-dong convenience store
now directly managed by the headquarters]
[Lifestyle Platform, GS25]
[Lifestyle Platform, GS25]
[Lifestyle Platform, GS25]
Mr. Choi!
Saet-byul?
Yes, sir.
Would you like to work on the farm
as an official employee?
-Sorry?
-You said that you love flowers, right?
I'll teach you well.
We provide food and accommodations,
and we'll also pay you well.
You'll also be registered for insurance.
-Just give it a thought.
-Okay.
You now have pension, health, employee,
and accident compensation insurance.
You have benefits to all four of those
from today on.
Saet-byul,
you're the first one that I ever signed up
for insurance.
Were you surprised when I asked you out
for dinner?
I was quite surprised.
Had it not been for you, I couldn't have
become a consultant.
Thank you so much.
Not at all. It was all your hard work.
I believe
that the headquarters needs you,
Director Yoo.
They needed you when you first started,
and they still do.
It's nice to hear
such a compliment from you.
Director,
I'm going to quit working as a consultant.
But Why so suddenly?
I learned so much while running a store
after quitting my job at the headquarters.
That's why I'm going to go back
to where I belong,
as a store owner.
Please cancel
the store's ownership transfer
to the headquarters.
[Letter of Resignation]
Dae-hyun,
do you have to do this?
Can't you give me one last chance?
[Backstreet Rookie]
Mom!
Over here.
-Mom, you're here.
-Yes.
Why did you want to meet here
of all places?
Just because.
I don't come to cart bars often,
but I oddly missed them when I was
in the US.
I promised myself that I'd visit one
with you when I'm back.
I see.
I felt like I'd regret it if I didn't,
so here we are.
You make it sound like you're going
to the US again.
Yes, I am.
What?
There's a start-up company
in Silicon Vallley,
and it has a great outlook.
They're searching
for a talented marketing expert.
Yeon-joo.
You know that your daughter loves
taking on challenges.
I want to challenge myself
in a bigger world.
Are you doing this because
-Cheers?
-No.
-Come on.
-My goodness.
For coffee, we have Ethiopian blend,
and the grapefruit juice is
also very popular.
Two glasses of grapefruit juice, please.
Okay, I'll be right back.
I thought that you were a smart woman.
I thought I had made myself clear,
so how could you just waste
your chance like that?
My son rushed things, I know.
I'm going to have a talk with him.
Your son didn't become a consultant
because he's competent.
He became one
because we commend his courage.
His courage to quit
for Yeon-joo.
Excuse me?
When he didn't know that she was
my daughter,
he quit, wanting to protect
his girlfriend from getting fired.
That's why he opened a convenience store.
I see.
My son really did that?
You really didn't know?
If the two were dating,
how come he didn't know that Yeon-joo is
your daughter?
Because she didn't tell him.
What an idiot.
That child was raised
by such an uncaring parent.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
I'm not talking about myself.
I'm talking about you.
-What?
-If you want to date someone,
you should be like my son.
You should open your heart
and do everything you could
for your loved one.
You should be able to quit your job
for your loved one.
Always be giving
whether you have it or not.
That's love.
She's the one
who doesn't trust a man like that.
She was hiding this and concealing that.
And now
you're here to tell me
I should listen to you.
Am I right?
Look, Ms. Gong.
Do you know what embarrasses
and upsets me the most right now?
I wished my son Dae-hyun
got along well with Yeon-joo
and became a member of her rich family.
I'm embarrassed of myself
for having that thought.
Look here.
Just because you have some money,
don't try to change other people
as you like.
I may not have money,
but I have my pride.
Don't live like that!
You know what?
The grapefruit juice is on me.
Here you go. Keep the change.
What
[Part-time help wanted]
[Part-time help wanted]
This is amazing!
♫ Crazy, crazy ♫
♫ Congratulations
on getting your job back ♫
♫ Crazy, crazy ♫
You're unbelievable.
You're extremely expressive.
I'm so happy to see you in the clothes
that suit you perfectly. That's why.
Are you sure it's not
because of the triangular gimbap?
No, it's not.
Dal-sik, have you ever been hit
with a periscope?
Did you hear something from Saet-byul?
I heard Saet-byul caught you.
Darn it.
There's no triangular gimbap for you.
Dae-hyun.
Hey, stop rambling and carry this.
Why? Saet-byul took the GED exam.
Now she has passed the exam,
she needs to prepare for the next one.
Come on. Carry it.
Dae-hyun, there's something
I haven't told you yet.
I didn't eat anything yesterday,
and my stomach is empty
as if I had an endoscopy.
My whole body feels weak and
Gosh, I'm dizzy.
What a shame. I was going to try the new
rice with butter and braised beef
and have some banana milk after this,
-I guess I'll work and eat alone.
-Butter and braised beef? Hey.
You're really strange sometimes.
How can two people carry it
when the place is so small like this?
I'll carry it alone.
-Do you want me to open the door?
-Yes.
Come on in.
Goodness.
I felt sorry to Mom
and for other reasons,
I wasn't able to tell you this yet.
But Saet-byul has left.
Why? Why did she leave?
Why?
Why?
Was the new owner mean to her?
No, that's not it.
Then what is it?
She must have been harassed
either physically
or mentally.
Has something happen
between you and Saet-byul?
Well
She said
she didn't want to get in my way.
Why would she get in your way?
Dae-hyun, I noticed yesterday
that Yeon-joo is very considerate
and warm-hearted.
It seems like Yeon-joo thinks of you
very differently now.
She's not like how she used to be.
I'll go upstairs.
Goodness.
I can't believe how stupid I was.
Oh, dear.
I had no idea she would take it that way.
I hurt her feelings.
What do I do?
My goodness.
Gosh. Dae-hyun.
Is that why you resigned
from the consultant's position?
You silly.
You know your mom and dad
are living a pathetic life like this.
Does that seem nice to you?
What's wrong with living like you?
You always tell me
not to live like you,
but I want to live like you.
Okay?
You always bicker with each other
and have your ups and downs,
but you care about each other.
And you can't live without each other.
I believe that's happiness
and something much worthy. I do.
You're being silly.
You have a convenience store
to manage, you punk.
Go to the store now.
I'll go.
Goodness.
Our boy is not too bad.
Apparently, we have
succeeded in our lives.
We just heard from our son
that he wanted to live like us.
That's success in life.
Don't you think, honey?
I totally do.
-Yong-pil.
-Yes?
Let's make another kid.
What's the matter?
Let's have our third kid.
Do you think you're free tonight?
Why are you shivering? Answer me!
Let's work hard.
[5 a.m.]
[5 a.m.]
Let's work well.
[5 a.m.]
Let's clean
Right. The study room.
All right.

-You've got a delivery.
-Come on in.
-You've got a delivery.
-Come on in.
[11 a.m.]
[11 a.m.]
I'm here to pick up
the items for delivery.
This should be right.
-Just a second, please.
-Sure.
Here's the chicken.
-Aren't you tired though? It's so hot.
-It's good exercise.
-Bye then.
-Bye.
[Lifestyle Platform, GS25]
I can't believe her.
How could she not even contact me?
"How petty you are.
How could you not contact"
It sounds clingy.
I'll just go with, "Grape".
Let's not do this.
Darn it. I'm not doing this.
[10 p.m.]
[Working for 17 hours non-stop]
-Do you have tissues?
-Sure. Hang on a second.
[1 p.m.]
[Working alone for 32 hours non-stop]
I'm sleepy.
Gosh, so sleepy.
Dae-hyun.
Hey. What? Hey, there.
Gosh, you look exhausted.
You should go home and get some sleep.
I'll watch the counter for you.
Dal-sik. Thank you.
I'll sleep in the storage room.
Hey, go home and sleep.
Why would you sleep in that tiny room?
You think Saet-byul might show up,
don't you?
Goodness. He's stubbornly in love.
Gosh, I'm so tired.
My gosh. You startled me.
I came here to break some bills.
Are you that happy to see me?
-I'll do that for you.
-Sure. Thanks.
[Refreshing Happiness, Grape]
[Your GED certificate was sent
to your home address.]
Awesome!
I passed the exam!
My gosh.
Hold on a second.
Wait. "Home address".
My gosh, it will be delivered
to Mr. Choi's house.
What do I do?
Gosh. Whatever.
I don't need the certificate.
What matters is that I passed.
Do I need it?
Gosh, I don't need it.
My gosh. I'm a high school graduate now.
I'm a high school graduate!
Gosh. I need the certificate.
This is called fashion. Okay?
Fashion, my foot.
With those black sunglasses,
you can't even see anything.
-I can see very well.
-What? As if.
You'll learn your lesson
when you trip over a rock or something.
That's when you'll realize
What's this?
This isn't ours.
Really? Whose mail is that?
It's Saet-byul's report card.
It's her GED exam.
Let's see.
She got a perfect score on Ethics.
She got 60 points
and 64 points.
My gosh.
She's not good at everything, I guess.
-Hey, she passed.
-Really?
My gosh. If she were here,
I would have given this to her.
We would have thrown her a party
if she were here.
We could have fed her some good food.
But we don't even know where she is.
Don't worry. I'm sure she's doing well.
Let's go inside.
-You're not coming inside.
-What? Why not?
Go to the convenience store
and switch with Dae-hyun.
I'm scared that
he's going to pass out again.
My gosh, that punk.
After quitting the consultant job--
What? He quit?
Saet-byul!
What are you doing there?
Come on out.
My gosh.
Saet-byul.
Have you been well?
Yes. I heard
from Dae-hyun that Man-bok
of Manbok Real Estate
was arrested, so you went
to the regional police station.
All right.
So,
how was the trip?
Did you get the deposit back?
I'm sorry, Ms. Gong.
I shouldn't have left like that.
I'm sorry.
No. Don't say that.
You didn't do anything wrong.
You did nothing wrong.
Saet-byul. My gosh.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Oh, my.
I'm sorry. Okay?
Saet-byul, I'm sorry.
I was so dense that I didn't even know
how you must have felt.
No.
Don't cry. Stop crying.
All right.
Don't cry.
My gosh, Saet-byul.
You must have been so heartbroken.
I'm sorry. I am sorry.

Who are you?
I'm here for the interview

My gosh. I
I haven't
slept for 40 hours.
Am I seeing things?
No, you're not.
Hey, this feels so real.
Hey! What?
Are you real?
Are you really Jung Saet-byul?
That's not what's important right now.
What?
Why did you quit the consultant job?
-To run the convenience store.
-Why that again?
Because I like it.
Who would come to apply
if you put up a sign like that?
You came.
Saet-byul.
Mr. Choi.
Where have you been?
What took you so long?
Do you know how much I missed you?
I missed you more!
I thought about you every day.
All 2,000 products at the store
had your face on them.
All the flowers at the flower farm
looked like you.
Saet-byul, thank you so much
for coming back. Thank you.
Thank you for waiting for me.
Don't go anywhere from now on.
Stay by my side, okay?
Can I hug you?
No.
I'll hug you first.
[-I love you.
-I love you.]
[-Jinx.

[I love you, Fire Volcano.]
As always, you're always the first one
to leave a comment on my webtoon,
Aphrodite.
I love you, Fire Volcano.
My foot is stuck!
It hurts! You little
I should just punch you.
-Gosh.
-I'm sorry.
-Are you all right?
-I'm okay.
-I think something is wrong.
-I'm okay.
-You're okay?
-Don't step on it.
Okay.
Fire Volcano.
What's your next webtoon about?
There's something I have in mind.
What is it about?
I'll show it to you. Come with me.
This is so cool!
It's that.
-The convenience store?
-Yes.
A place that's always lit.
An off-the-wall part-timer
and a clumsy, handsome manager
will show us
an unpredictable, yet funny romance
that takes place at a convenience store.
-The title is
-Okay.
"Backstreet Star".
What do you think?
I think I like "Backstreet Rookie",
Fire Volcano.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
Then, the title is
-"Backstreet Rookie".
-"Backstreet Rookie".
What is it?
-I'm out of love.
-I'll charge you.
Charging complete.
Should we come up with the story?
-All right.
-Okay.
The story begins

starts working at the store.]

[I should have fired this time bomb then.]
I sprayed it on my wrists and my neck.
Mr. Choi.
You have a girlfriend?
Of course I have a girlfriend.
But why do you sound so angry about it?
Everyone thinks I'm lying.
No one ever believes me.
What are you talking about? You have me.
I will believe you.
Mr. Choi,
I think it's time
I think it's time
[Hesitant]
[Hesitant]

that I quit working at your store.
that I quit working at your store.
Why are you so nice to me?
You're confusing me.
-Do you think I'm being nice to you?
-Yes.
You have no idea
what you're talking about.

what you're talking about.
[Gosh, this is nothing.]

If I start being nice to someone,
I end up melting that person's heart.

I'll be a convenience store manager.
I would like to be

Will you accept my red tulips?

You asked me a question the other day.
My answer is..

It's a yes for me too.
