(Episode 9)

There was a time…

when I wanted to be one of them, too.

I wanted to eat like them,

sleep like them…

Hello, ma'am.

- Mom! - Mom!

- Dad! - Dad!

empathize like them,

and love like them.

But I couldn't be one of them just because I wanted to.

They always leave.

They always have…

somewhere to go.

Unlike me.

(For lease)

That was when I realized

that I, the one who has nowhere to go,

I, the one who had no end in this life,

can never be one of them.

The job given to me is all about

watching them.

So choose.

Choose the world, and yourself.

Just…

watching them.

You wretched girl! Stop right there!

I know that expression you make!

So I will not stop! No, I can't stop!

You wretched girl!

Uh…

Sorry for the sudden visit, but…

What's going on?

Go to the first floor. I'll be down soon.

If you heard me, answer me.

Uh… I need to step outside for a moment.

Here.

If it's because of me, then I'll go.

Ah, I'm sorry. That's not what it is…

Is something wrong?

He's here.

Lee Hyun-gyu.

Uh, I'm sorry, but…

can you please leave a bit later after I go out?

- I don't want… - I understood.

I'm sorry.

She doesn't need to be sorry, but it feels a bit…

weird.

Who told you where my house is?

I asked some people.

And did you think that

you're allowed to come just because they told you and you found out?

No.

I thought that I must never do that.

- But? - I couldn't help it.

Because I missed you.

I came back to Korea because I missed you,

and I went to the reunion because I missed you.

And I came here to tell you this.

You always do what you want to do.

- Hi, Hyun-gyu. - Oh, hi.

You always do what you want to do.

How could you have me hear about your plan

to study abroad from someone else?

How could you make me come to you?

- I'm sorry… - Why aren't you replying to my texts?

Are you really asking me to break up with you?

It's because…

I'm too sorry to…

If you're sorry, you should've replied to me!

If you're sorry, you should've come to meet me!

I'm really sorry…

You're like this every time.

It's because I liked you first,

and it's because my feelings are stronger.

You know that. You do, and…

Forget it.

That's not why. I'll explain everything.

I said I'm going to study abroad.

I didn't say I'm going to break up with you.

See?

You're doing what you want to do, again.

You thought that I wouldn't be able to break up with you then.

That's how you dragged things out,

and without even knowing if we broke up or not,

we broke up in the end.

I've been regretting it this whole time.

I was too young at the time.

Going to in front of someone else's house

and just waiting unconditionally…

I know how that is, because I've done that, too.

'What should I say if I meet him?'

Even after all those thinkings, I couldn't find the answer.

But still…

I couldn't help but just wait.

"Just," I mean.

- Na Ji-na. - But you're not like me.

Well,

I didn't get to meet you,

when you got to meet me.

You should've come to me at that time.

Nine years are too late.

I know. I'm not trying to do anything. I just…

I just wanted to answer your question.

And if that makes you feel complicated,

just forget about it.

I'm sorry. Just don't think about it.

But I get to.

When I see you like this, I get to think about you for a while.

Take this moment, for instance.

I am here, sitting in front you, after everything.

Whenever I'm in front of you,

I feel like I've gone back to that place, that moment.

It was wet every day.

The floor of the swimming pool, and the rain…

Liking you

was wet for me, every day.

Even if it would've been nice and dry for you.

If I'm asked to go back to that place, then…

I'm not sure.

Still, I was happy about everything.

Still…

I liked everything.

Auntie, calm down, please!

Do you think it's possible for me to calm down now?

- Hey, Tak Seon-kyung! - Don't blame him!

Auntie, no…

Auntie, wait, wait, wait!

Come here! Come here, you!

I… I didn't do that on purpose…

Come here when I'm still being nice to you!

You're being nice to me at all right now!

Auntie!

Auntie! Are you okay, Auntie?

- Got you, you brat! - Auntie!

How could you do this? This is cheating!

Hey, you're the one who cheated!

Ah, you know, Ms. Soo-ja!

Ms. Soo-ja! Please let go before we talk!

- Ah, this is hard. - You'll make me collapse!

Auntie! Auntie!

What? Why?

Sit down.

I don't want to sit on the floor…

He behaves like an American from time to time.

He does that very seldomly, but he did that just now.

Sorry for the late greeting, Mr. Boyfriend.

I'm Kang Soo-ja.

I'm Dong-kyung's aunt.

Ah, this is Kang Soo-ja, my aunt.

And this is… Huh? Boyfriend?

I've heard a lot about you.

You've… heard a lot about him from whom?

Tak Seon-kyung, that brat…

I'm sorry for the chaotic first encounter. Were you startled?

I'm okay. You don't have to worry.

By the way, where do you live?

Look at the time. It's too late.

Ah, actually, I live…

Ah, it's too late. Too late.

Look at the time. It's too late.

- You should home, okay? - But you told me to sit.

Now it's time for you to get up. Hurry.

Huh? What? I know, right? Thank goodness.

The last bus of the day didn't take off yet, right?

Hey, hey, hurry up.

Ah, I wish I could have a drink with you if I could,

but as you can see, we have a serious family matter, so…

What? You said you're okay?

Yes. He said he's okay, Auntie. Yeah.

Take this. Hurry.

Hey, go on.

Ah, bye. Yeah.

She's just so unpredictable. Every time.

Auntie…

I know how you're feeling.

So I won't get angry.

'I'm sure it will be burdensome.'

'I'm sure it will be a nuisance.'

I know that you didn't contact me because

you were thinking like that.

The colors are perfect.

I bought them during last year's sales, and they're lovely.

Nice choice, yeah.

You've been like that since you were 10 years old.

You were always concerned about me and acted like you're a guest.

I mean, why were you even concerned about me? Huh?

You're concerned about others, when you end up doing what you want.

You live your life in a tiring way.

No wonder you got sick.

Auntie…

How long are you going to be polite?

You're not a guest who's visiting my life.

By the way, why is this hat so big?

Is your head too small?

I bought this because I thought it'd fit you.

I should give this to Seon-kyung.

Hey, I also bought a few summer dresses.

Want to try them on now?

I bought them one by one whenever I thought of you

in Canada, and I bought this much already.

Make sure you wear all of them by season, okay?

You have to make the most out of it, since I spent money on them.

I braced myself for that when I got on the plane.

So you need to pull yourself together, okay?

Don't give this to Seon-kyung. It's mine.

Oh, you're greedy about clothes, just like your mother.

Do you know how many clothes your mother took from me?

So I tried not to take

your life from you.

You never took it from me.

I just gave it to you.

I gave it to you because I wanted to.

Did you go home safely?

I was so bewildered earlier…

(Na Ji-na)

(Did you go home safely? I was so bewildered earlier…)

You're home?

Yeah.

Did you wash?

Yeah.

You should wash, too.

Okay. Get some rest.

Get some rest.

Hello?

Hey.

So you do know how to answer the phone, huh?

I know how to hang up, too.

Hey…

Hey, I'm calling you secretly right now.

So don't make me yell.

Uh, what are you doing?

Are you home?

Why?

I'm just curious,

after we've been sleeping together every night.

You're only careful about a certain set of words.

You say things without hesitation most of the time.

Do I?

Hey, you know…

Yeah.

Is "Yeah" the only thing you can say?

Yeah.

They look alike.

Your aunt and your mom.

They don't just look alike. They look identical.

Because they're twins.

Whenever I see Auntie, it feels like I'm seeing Mom.

I've been seeing my aunt

and only thought that this is

what Mom looked like,

but when I actually saw her, I could see the difference.

Thanks.

I think I forgot to say that.

Thanks for…

showing me my mom and dad.

Okay.

And I'll think carefully about my wish, too.

For myself.

Okay.

Is "Okay" the only thing you can say?

I can say "Good night," too.

Good night.

Wow, that's so new and awkward

to do this on the phone.

- Bye. - Ah, wait.

Why?

You said you'll do me pretty much any kind of a favor I ask.

So, you know…

Can I ask you a favor?

The new medicine that was used in recent clinical test

has had its stability confirmed,

and is recruiting additional patients.

And Ms. Tak Dong-kyung is also on the waiting list.

Then when can the treatment start, doctor?

We have to get the blood test results first,

so it'll take about two weeks.

When she's selected, she just needs to come here regularly.

See, Auntie?

Let's wait for a bit, okay?

Without any worries.

So…

is she really in a condition that doesn't require hospitalization?

Yes. She is fine.

So there really is a possibility, right?

Can she live?

Yes, we are trying to save her.

Uh, by the way…

Didn't you say that your boyfriend is a doctor, too?

Which hospital does he work at?

Ah, him?

He…

works…

in the U.S. He's an American doctor.

Ah, the U.S.

So that's what it meant by him behaving like an American.

Yes, that's right.

Your boyfriend is a bit less handsome than

that doctor…

who's in charge of you, but…

Less handsome?

Hey, but, the looks are not the top priority in love.

It's personality that counts.

Seon-kyung said that he's a good man.

Uh, but his looks

are not totally bad or anything like that…

You are so deeply in love.

Then while I pick up my Canadian husband

and take him to the hotel,

you go ahead and meet your American boyfriend.

Oh, he didn't have to come to Korea for us.

Kevin loves you guys so much.

So don't say that. It'll make him sad.

He was saying that we should get a house in Seoul and

all live together, and I tried hard to stop him.

I’ll be back. It won’t take long.

Okay.

No, I mean, give my phone back.

- Happy now? - Yeah.

- Bye. - Where are you going?

You said you're happy now.

That's about the phone. You can't go yet.

Here.

What is this?

A phone. Haven't you seen it before?

I have. I saw it yesterday.

Hey, come on.

So, I'm asking, why?

Things like yesterday can happen again, huh?

And I got plans.

Wasn't it because your heart fluttered from the bedtime call?

Well, that's partially right, too, but…

Who's going to pay the bills?

Speaking of which, what's your bank account number?

A credit card number is fine, too.

Are you sure the line is open?

Seriously…

Here.

Here. (Sa-ram)

(Sa-ram)

(Dong-kyung)

It looks heartless when family names are included,

so I took them out when I saved the numbers.

Now then, we got each other's numbers.

What shall we do next?

(Sa-ram)

What are you doing?

Take it.

Do you have time?

Isn't this what comes after getting a number?

What if I have time?

Let's have fun.

What the heck? Why are we here?

What is this? A gift for me?

No, it's your work.

Work?

You've gotten so materialistic these days.

Want me to buy you something?

Grandma.

Does that mean my teacher isn't coming?

The ship coming to the island has been cut off,

so it looks like he can't come.

Does that mean there's no graduation for me?

You can be in a graduation with me.

You also have your diploma right in front of you.

(Diploma)

Ugh, but I want to receive it from my teacher.

- Oh, sir. - Oh, sir.

I thought you couldn't come.

Still, I must come. This is the last graduation at this school.

Who… who are you?

Huh?

I… I'm…

She came here to take pictures. From Seoul.

From Seoul? By airplane?

Yeah.

To take this for us.

Alright, here we go.

One, two.

Then is this school going to disappear?

Because it doesn't have any more students to attend it.

And there's no teacher to watch this school, either.

Where's the real teacher?

I'm sure he's going somewhere.

What, in his dreams?

No.

Toward the opposite end of the life.

Or maybe he has already…

arrived at that garden by now.

You know, about her…

That girl who was in the garden.

I saw her at the hospital, too.

She was wearing a patient's uniform at that time.

She's ill.

She's ill?

She's always ill.

She's born ill, stays ill her entire life, and dies.

And then she's reborn again,

stays ill her entire life again, and dies, again.

That's the way she watches over the world.

She's ill for all of the sins of the world, and dies.

That's the god's duty.

I've been watching that mess she's in for a long time.

I thought I was the most pitiful one in the world,

but I was nothing compared to her.

Do you think the world would've been peaceful

if there was nothing from the start?

If nothing happened, I mean.

Hold still.

Huh? Why?

During that one second you've stopped,

nothing has faced its doom.

The world was like how exactly you wanted it to be.

Isn't it weird?

That one second…

felt like eternity to me.

(The late Kang Soo-ah)

You're still beautiful.

And I am the only one who aged.

Now, you should call me your big sister.

Sis.

Even if you miss her,

wait for a bit more.

Take her…

just a bit later.

My dear Dong-kyung…

What I realized in life is…

that the word "eternity"

can be used on something that's still continuing.

That loving someone for an eternity is close to impossible,

but losing someone for an eternity is always possible.

But we all live our lives

thanks to the things that are not eternal.

For example, dreams.

Here are the two lattes you ordered.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- It's good. - Is it?

Memories.

Regrets.

(The Second First Love/Lee Hyun)

We can live thanks to those things.

(The Second First Love/ Lee Hyun-gyu)

(The Second First Love/ Lee Hyun)

Or love,

and people.

(Sa-ram)

Thanks to those things.

People and love are similar.

I shouldn't have given that name to you.

Hey, come out.

I have something I want to do with you.

Why am I here right now?

I'm totally determined today.

- To do what? - To spend money like crazy.

I've never done this before, ever.

So I need you.

Why do you need me?

So you can watch me spending money

and add to the fun.

I'd like to buy everything from here

to here.

All of these?

Yes, in 270, please.

($4,870)

Up to here, please.

You have only two feet. You don't have to buy this many.

We need this many to wear for each season.

Tak Seon-kyung treats his shoes super recklessly.

Oh, next, we're going there.

Do you know what gift writers get most often,

but don't really like?

- What? - Fountain pens.

It seems like it's totally necessary for writers,

but writers these days

don't really need to use fountain pens.

But they can't throw away those pretty, expensive things,

so they have to just enshrine them at home.

If so, why would you buy those for them?

Because Ji-na is someone

who thinks more about what she hates than what she loves.

She can never forget those.

I'd like to see this one, please.

I'm sorry, but,

this is the only one we have in stock.

Can you please yield it to me?

I've been waiting for this for three months.

And I…

have three months left.

I am…

terminally ill, so…

before I die…

I want to give the last gift…

to my aunt…

I wish you the best.

Thank you.

Yes!

This is the first time I've shopped so much.

So this is the fun of making money.

Who's next?

Next?

Next, it's for myself.

Hey, I'm going to press this and take a picture, okay?

Ugh, smile, even if you don't want to take it.

It's not that I don't want to take it.

Why are we taking it?

- Huh? - Too look at it later?

Then shouldn't I be the only one in the picture?

You humans are so weird.

Why leave something like that behind?

It's not like you'll get to see it for yourself.

It's for other people to look at, not me.

Because that's what I do.

I don't know who's going to look at it.

Face forward.

Here we go, smile!

Here we go!

When are you going to give these to them?

Huh? I don't know.

When I want to give them.

Hey, give me your phone.

Can't you see that I can't use my hands?

- What are you doing? - Ah, hold still.

Ta-da!

Hey.

Hey, you can't use your hands now. Hold still.

Goodbye.

Tak Dong-kyung.

Ugh, just let it slide.

Do we have to fight about something like this?

I'm a good fighter, as you've seen.

See you later.

Ah, later…

What? Later? When?

Hey.

What the heck? Is this a dream?

Yeah.

Well,

there's no way you'd bring me to a place like this in reality.

Why are you putting it that way?

You said you don't eat or sleep.

But I eat because of you

and sleep because of you these days.

Hey, I can still taste it, even if it’s a dream, huh?

I don't gain weight if I eat it in my dreams, right?

Are you happy?

No. It'd be so great if that happened in real life.

There are some things that are only possible in here.

Huh?

Sorry.

We're late.

Ugh, Ji-na drives so aggressively.

Hey, shut up.

I should've just dropped you off on our way.

It's on me today. Help yourself.

- Thank you for the food. - Help yourself.

That's unusual.

Hey, you're not allowed to eat. And ask them for water.

- Help yourself, Seon-kyung. - Okay.

Help yourself, you brat.

Good morning.

Oh, you're up. Come and eat.

Ah, I called them over to feed them.

Why didn’t you tell me about your aunt's visit?

So I told her!

Come on. Come and sit.

Okay.

Ta-da!

It's been so long.

When did you cook all these?

You love this.

- Thank you for the food. - Thank you for the food.

Help yourself.

I'm getting changed.

Stay there and talk.

I'm sorry for not listening to you.

I won't do that again.

This isn't a negotiation for truce. This is a surrender.

Why?

So you can be a good boy?

I'll try my best,

so what you're worrying about won't happen.

What do you think I'm worrying about?

She will never abandon the world.

I will make sure she doesn't. And that's what I want.

Ah, and…

I've always been wanting to tell you this.

I always thought that you're just so pityful.

I pitied you longer than

the time I blamed you.

Thank you for making me born.

That's…

what I've been thinking these days, a bit.

What is this all about? She won't renew the contract?

I said, what is this all about?

It's just like what she said.

She said she won't sign a contract with this company

if Tak Dong-kyung isn't her editor.

That's ridiculous.

Hey, we don’t need her, either.

Hey, she's not even popular,

but she's so arrogant just because she's a writer…

Fire that Lee Hyun. Hey.

You guys go tell her

that it's not her quitting,

but it's me firing her!

How dare she… that rude little…

- Ms. Dalgona won't, either. - Huh? Why not?

Mr. Siberia and Mr. Jung Dang-myun said the same thing, too.

What's with them?

And Mr. Young Prince, whom Ms. Tak caught

and brought back recently.

No, no, no, not him!

He's one of our top 10 writers!

Did you hear what they said, huh?

Mr. Cha, do something!

You're going to do something about it, right?

Do what?

Go bring the writers back,

or go bring Tak Dong-kyung back.

- Why should I? - What? Why…

You, the CEO, should be responsible for big matters like this.

What did you say?

Are you telling me to fix it just because I am the one

who caused this?

No. I'm saying that the CEO should be responsible

for big matters like this, because you're the CEO.

By the way, do you actually know that you made this happen?

I thought that you didn't know.

Hey, call Ms. Tak right now.

Why aren't you answering me?

You should call her yourself.

Hey, she's just ignoring my calls…

Hey, what did you just say?

You shouldn't talk down to us during a meeting.

If the meeting is over, I must get going now.

We, the lower ones, are behind with our works right now.

Ugh, how dare he…

(Na Ji-na)

(What? Now?/Yes. The contract. I'm sure you didn't forget it)

(Can you come right now, by any chance?)

(There's something I'm stuck on/ I can't)

(Did you go hone safely? I was so bewildered earlier…)

I actually didn't expect the writers to react like that.

I know, right? Though I expected one of them to react like that…

You mean Ms. Lee Hyun?

Did you go home safely?

I was so bewildered earlier…

By the way, how do you know Ms. Lee Hyun?

What?

What's going on with you today?

Including the meeting.

- What? - You've been distracted today.

What's on your mind? Is it something good?

I don't think it's something good.

I said, how are you acquainted with Ms. Lee Hyun?

Well, I went to a meeting with her in Ms. Tak's place before, so…

- Where are you going? - To skip work.

Please enjoy.

Thank you.

Did you sober up?

Ah, I've never been drunk in my entire life.

I was totally fine at that time.

And you were fine enough to talk down to me?

I'm sorry. I must've been drunk.

My alcohol limit is three shots of soju.

Thanks.

For what?

For only being able to handle three shots of soju?

There's a reason.

Oh, hi.

- We need to talk. - What would you like?

I said, we need to talk.

Your CEO is sitting at the table behind you.

Lee Hyun-gyu.

(Push)

Oh, look at you.

I didn't put you here to

just stand here and chat!

Hey, hang up for a moment.

The landlord is here. I'll call you back in a minute.

Don't ignore me! I'm your father!

I said, why are you here?

Mr. Cha…

"Father?"

Father!

Oh, my father!

What made you come here without calling?

Did you bring anyone? Or did you come alone?

Oh, don't…

Hey!

Oh, where do you think you're going? Come on.

Father, what's wrong…

What's wrong with you brats?

I mean, so, he suddenly came to my house.

That Lee Hyun-gyu is crazy.

I never knew he could be so straightforward.

Time does change people.

No, that's not important right now.

Who told him about where my house is?

Not me, for your information.

By the way, who else came to my house besides you?

Huh?

You said you have something to say.

Yeah.

Go ahead.

Let's talk after we go up.

Joo-ik, do you know who Na Ji-na is?

Yeah.

Is that all?

Let's talk after we go up.

I have somewhere to go to.

(Maximum limit line)

(Your laundry may not dry properly if you go over the line)

(Mr. Cha, did you leave your umbrella at my house…)

(Call)

Hello?

Where are you?

Who is this…

It's me, Hyun-gyu.

What the heck? How did you figure out my number?

I'll explain when I get there. We need to meet now.

Now?

But I'm not home now.

Where are you?

I'm at the laundromat in front of my house.

What do you think you’re doing?

Are you dating someone now?

- What? - I said, are you dating?

- No. - Then do you have someone you like?

Even if you do, date me.

Regardless of who he is,

I dated you first,

and I liked you first, and…

I still like you.

It's actually inconvenient when we're not living together.

You're right.

I'm done, so, bye.

Why?

Don't you want to let go?

You know, by any chance…

By any chance…

if I say I want to live longer,

can you grant that, too?

No.

I can't do that.

Because I am Doom.

Yeah.

I knew you'd say that.

I was just asking.

You've heard it, right?

What they're thinking in their minds.

When they look at me…

though they're all smiling and laughing like that,

they're actually…

very heartbroken, aren't they?

As much as I am.

Even more than I am.

Yeah.

What about you?

What do you think when you look at me?

Do you think that I wouldn't know?

You're keep…

telling me to survive…

and live. You're doing that.

When your eyes are like those of someone dead.

How do you think I'd feel from looking at that?

You just need to follow

your initial thoughts.

It's simple.

Bye.

Back in the day, the blossoms were quite a sight.

But the blossoms don't bloom that much anymore.

Because it's dying.

It's just like us.

Both you and I are also dying.

That how all life is.

Oh, I thought they would be here for us all the time,

but it's so sad that I can't see them anymore.

Those blossoms were so beautiful.

What do you think when you look at me?

I thought…

I'd be able to keep watching them

as they disappear.

Is this what it's like to eat like them,

to sleep like them,

to empathize with them, to love them,

and having somewhere to go

like them?

I'm not afraid of vanishing,

but I was afraid of being unable to see you anymore.

I realized that just now, like a fool.

That there isn't

much time left for you.

What's wrong? What happened?

I love you.

I am

in love with you.

(Doom at Your Service)

He and I are going to date.

Are you still lonely and sad?

I'm not.

Because you're in my life.

Hey, never give me those looks.

It seems like he's been staring at us badly for a while.

You were acting like a puppy trying to protect its owner,

with eyes like this.

I told Ji-na.

Don't answer it.

I have something to say.

Love as much as you want, and live.

I want to make a wish. My birthday wish.

Will you marry me?
