[My Girlfriend is the Man!]

It's the tail end of summer, and heavy rain is pouring down.

The world-renowned astronomer Carl Sagan said this.

We are as minuscule as dust

and can endure the vastness of the cosmos through love alone.

The moment we realize we've been taking

everything in our lives for granted

our lives become miraculous.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry, but we're closed.

[Resident ID / Student ID - Kim Ji Eun]

Sir...

Where did you find this?

I asked, where did you find this?

Y-Yun Jae.

You...

know me?

I'm sorry, but who are you?

It's me.

Ji Eun.

What?

I have no idea what you're talking about right now.

I'm...

I'm your girlfriend...

Kim Ji Eun.

[Episode 1: Cosmic Miracle]

[The Birth and Extinction of the Cosmos]

Kim Ji Eun.

Yes?

Of all the books you read by our publishing house,

you noted "The Birth and Extinction of the Cosmos" as your favorite.

I first learned about the book,

"The Birth and Extinction of the Cosmos,"

when my astronomy major boyfriend recommended it to me.

By linking the physical cosmos to a character named Cosmos,

it explored quantum mechanics from a literary perspective.

I had to read it several times

to understand the book's message.

And what was that?

It was that love is

the root of the problem.

In the book,

everything happens

as the result of the protagonist's love.

If he didn't love anything,

nothing would've happened.

Therefore,

"Love again today.

Don't stop loving."

That's what I learned from this book.

Kim Ji Eun!

Ta-da!

What is this?

How did you get here?

I took the bus.

What a massive space.

Thanks to Kim Ji Eun, I get to check out a place like this.

I knew it.

You said those shoes hurt your feet.

But still, they're cute.

Gosh, it must've hurt.

Wait a second.

Ta-da.

- Ouch. - Are you hurt?

- Yeah. - I brought a Band-Aid, too.

There you go.

What?

- Did something happen? - No.

Thank you for recognizing and loving me, Park Yun Jae.

Huh?

So out of the blue.

I feel the same.

Thank you, Kim Ji Eun.

I love you so much.

Me, too.

♫ Can't stop, can't stop thinking about you ♫

What's all this?

What do you think? It's our Suncheon trip itinerary.

Wow, classic Park Yun Jae.

So thorough.

This is our first overnight trip together.

I don't want to waste a single moment with you.

How come...

there are no plans at all after 9 p.m.?

Are we really going to bed at 9 p.m.?

The purpose of this trip

is to stargaze with you

all night long.

Star...

Hey! What if someone hears you?

- That hurt! - So old-school.

- You're so... - What about stargazing?

I was... I was eating already.

So funny.

Are you shooting a film?

Oh, my God!

Hello, Noonim.

It's a hot day. Why don't you continue inside?

Can't you just ignore us and go in?

Why not continue in air conditioning?

So pleasant.

What do you mean? Continue what?

Go in already.

I'll leave.

My sister drives me crazy...

I'm going. I'll call you later.

W-Why? Come in and continue. I'll stay in my room.

What are you saying?

I said come inside...

What's wrong with you?

What's with you?

[Love Jello]

When did she sneak this in?

What if we die after drinking all that?

That'd be great to not age and not have to make money.

Gosh, I'm sure our parents would love to hear that.

Abracadabra...

There you go again.

Why? Something not going well again?

Why ask me that? Nothing has ever worked out for me.

I wonder if it might be better if you flipped all of them

and just pick the card you want.

Oh, my.

T-This is my first time picking this card.

Hey, hey.

Even from your uninformed perspective, isn't this card beautiful?

What do I do?

I guess I'm finally about to find true love!

10% chance of precipitation...

Okay...

And music.

Okay.

One...

What are you doing?

Can't you knock?

What are you doing in the middle of the night?

What a performance.

Hey. What do you think?

Don't you think my shoulders have gotten broader?

You might crap in your pants.

Look, look.

What do you think?

It does look like they've gotten broader.

But...

But?

It looks like your face has gotten broader, too.

Don't try too hard.

Geez, that little...

[Jeongja Building]

Boss?

Hey, part-timer.

Looks like you're in a good mood.

Ma'am,

will our cafe be okay like this?

Part-timer, do you know the name of this building,

by chance?

I used to know...

[Jeongja Building]

Jeongja Building.

I remember it since it's a very impactful name.

That's also your name...

My mom named us both.

Me...

and this building.

So, you're the daughter of the building owner

I had only heard about?

Gosh...

Those damn deadlines...

Writer Yu Ri, where are you?

She's not here.

You scared me.

What are you doing?

I'm about to hit the deadline,

but my mind was completely blank, so I was punishing myself.

Ji Eun.

I don't think I'm cut out to be a writer.

Gosh, come out already.

What?

An overnight trip?

Your friend is barely surviving a deadline,

and you're going on a trip with your boyfriend?

This is why they say it's pointless to have friends.

But you know, about the trip...

Yun Jae seems to be preparing a bunch of stuff.

I feel weird that I'm just showing up.

What's wrong with just showing up?

That's the most important part.

What do you mean?

Wait a second.

[Condom]

What could this be?

You must protect your own body.

Hey! What are you imagining?

We're not about to do that!

Two adults who are madly in love are going on a trip together.

You'll 100% do that.

As for that, of course-

The purpose of this trip

is to stargaze with you all night long.

It's better to take it to be safe rather than wish you had it.

Put it away.

So...

why do you have this? You've been single all your life.

I rewrite my will every day.

I might die any day.

Of course, I have a condom.

If only you tackled deadlines with that kind of mindset.

Bitch.

[The Private Life of a Goddess]

All that fuss, and look what she wrote.

Anyway, Choi Yu Ri, she has the talent of a devil.

[Niver College Student Web Novel Contest]

Hey, Yun Jae.

Where did you get this car?

It's actually my boss' car.

I said I'm going away with you, and she lent it to me. Wild, right?

Your boss at the cafe?

But still...

she lent this expensive car to a part-timer for no reason?

You could say it's the result of my constant dedication and effort.

Still, what if we scratch it or something?

I'm nervous.

Just trust me.

Plus, nervous or not,

the deal is already done.

So what if I'm the building owner's daughter?

I don't have a man.

Ma'am, a building is a hundred times better than a man.

Really? Then, want to have me?

Having me means having this building, too.

There's a guy I know.

Is he handsome?

This is a photo from five years ago,

but he is really good-looking.

He's tall and has a deep, mellow voice.

I'd say decent hardware.

Ma'am, the thing is, he's still looking for a job...

Tell me his number.

Wow. Your boss is all about looks, too, huh?

Just like my sister.

Right, your sister...

She might be more pressing.

You're right.

Everything will be fine tonight, right?

Unni drank all that booze last night and is totally passed out.

and is totally passed out right now.

Guys, do it inside.

Hello, Noonim.

Are you a pervert?

Why do you keep peeping?

I can't help it. Why don't you take it easy, then?

What? Is that...

a cigarette in your hand? You're smoking again?

I'm going to tell Dad!

It's a cotton swab. A cotton swab.

Gosh, feels good.

Okay, take your time.

Seriously.

Looks delicious.

Have a seat.

What? I thought you were going on a retreat.

What's up with the hair?

What about my hair? Why?

Huh? You're wearing cologne, too?

You're suspicious.

No. Not suspicious at all.

- Definitely suspicious. - Stop yapping

and let's eat.

Honey, go ahead.

Let's pray.

Our eldest son, Park Yun Jae,

is going on a trip with his girlfriend today.

So that he can have a fun trip without any incidents,

- please be with him and watch over him, God. - Lord...

Amen.

Amen.

Dad...

Wait, what did you just say?

Let's eat. Eat.

Yun Ah, did you look into the Web Novel Creation Academy?

Right, I'll look into it later.

Mom, wait.

- Listen to me- - Honey, Honey,

the dried pollack soup is so delicious. Good job.

Yun Jae, eat up so you can have the strength.

Yes, eat up.

Eat the meat. Eat up.

Wait. Why would I need strength?

- Eat the meat. - Excuse me.

Family.

Dad, Mom, it's not about that. Okay?

I mean...

I'm really going to a retreat!

No way...

What do I do?

All right...

This is a dream.

Sorry. I'll be quick.

Hey, your clothes look like they shrunk.

It's all bunch up in your butthole.

Hilarious.

I told you to go easy on the dryer.

Oh, you must've gained weight.

T-Then, I'm leaving...

Who are you? You pervert!

How dare you come in here?

You, you, you...

I'll get you

- It's me! - Let go!

Please let me go!

- I'm telling you, it's me! - Please spare me...

Please spare me...

It's me, Ji Eun.

Kim Ji Eun. Your little sibling.

I only have a little sister.

I know. I'm that sister!

Oh, I see. This is a dream. Okay.

Since this is a dream, should we just kiss?

Pull yourself together.

Unni.

I look like a man

to you, too, right?

"Unni"?

Look carefully.

I'm Ji Eun.

Kim Ji Eun.

Your little sister.

Ji...

J-Ji...

J-Ji...

J-Ji Eun. Ji Eun! I'll help you!

What do we do, Ji Eun...

Ji Eun!

You know, since I have been

raised properly by my parents,

I am quietly enduring this ridiculous situation.

But actually, I wonder if it's not too late to call the police.

Go ahead if you want.

I'm curious what happens next, too.

Could you please close your legs...

Let's be honest. This situation does not make sense.

My very average little sister

turned into a hottie like you overnight.

What was the focus of that statement?

The problem isn't that your average sister turned into a hottie.

N-No, that's not what I meant. What I was saying is...

Why are you speaking to me so casually when we've just met?

W-W-What? Oh, my.

I'll really call the police! I'll report.

Don't come near me! Don't come. I said I'll call.

- Look at this. - I mean it!

Don't come near me. I'll make a report.

- Really. I will. - Kim Ji Hye, look at this!

I can't imagine it, but if something happens to us

like Mom and Dad said, just in case,

let's show each other these.

Once we show these, we verify and

believe each other, no matter what.

Until we return to normal again.

But...

what if this goes away, too?

I hadn't thought about that.

We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Got it?

Sure.

- So cute. - Cute.

Thankfully, this is still here.

W-W-Why is that on your shoulder?

What do I do?

What do I do now?

- This makes no sense... - I keep saying it makes no sense!

You're really Kim Ji Eun?

Yes!

Wait a second.

What? What now? You're scaring me.

I can't hold back any longer.

I've been holding back

this whole time.

Oh, my gosh! Hey, no way. Really. Not me.

Oh, gosh. Oh, no...

I need to use the bathroom...

But...

I must have male parts.

I can't look. What do I do?

Can you do something for me, Unni?

Y-You must be crazy!

- I need to pee! - Wait!

Oh, my gosh!

You just pee. Hey!

Here.

You didn't have to come all this way.

You two have been texting the whole time.

Is Ji Eun really sick?

Yes, she's really sick. She took medication and passed out.

Noonim.

I'm so worried because this has never happened before.

Could I see Ji Eun briefly?

No way. Never. Not over my dead body. No.

I hate having people in my house.

It's a hot day. Why don't you continue inside?

Guys, do it inside.

My mood tends to fluctuate.

Anyway, no way, not today.

Be careful driving.

- Please! - No way!

- Just a moment. Just once. - No.

Watch your leg.

Wear your seat belt.

What do I do?

What do I do...

Hey. Here...

I bought some things I thought you might need.

Rest up...

[My Yun Jae]

[Ji Eun, are you very sick? / Should I bring you some porridge?]

[Meteor shower video clip]

[Meteor shower video clip]

I wanted to watch it with you today.

I guess we're watching it like this.

I'm so worried about you, and I miss you.

I love you.

♫ I see you ♫

♫ Always I know, more than I see ♫

♫ It's not a dream, you become clearer ♫

♫ I hear you ♫

♫ Eyes don't lie, all with you ♫

♫ Remember me, I promise ♫

♫ I see you, no matter what the moment ♫

Kim Ji Eun.

Hey, at this rate, it's not love. It's a funeral tribute.

You can't keep using being sick as an excuse.

Gosh, do something.

Well, either break up,

or tell him what happened.

[Resident ID / Student ID - Kim Ji Eun]

Sir.

Where did you find this?

I asked, where did you find this?

Yun Jae.

You...

know me?

I'm sorry,

but who are you?

It's me.

Ji Eun.

What?

I have no idea what you're talking about right now.

I'm...

I'm your girlfriend...

Kim Ji Eun.

[Republic of Korea / YN Savings Bank - Kim Ji Eun]

Except for the fact that I became a man,

nothing's changed.

Except for the fact that you became a man?

- Are you serious right now? - What I'm saying is...

only my appearance changed briefly.

I'm 100% Kim Ji Eun inside.

Is this a hidden camera prank?

Did Ji Eun sign up for this?

It's not like that.

I should've told you before something like this happened.

But I couldn't because I didn't think you'd believe me.

Of course not.

Who would believe this?

You might be confused right now,

but you'll soon understand.

Please try to see it in a positive light.

Positive light?

You said you'd rather have a normal little brother than a weird little sister.

Think of me as your temporary little brother.

I never said I wanted a normal little brother.

Wait, I did...

Right? How would I know that if I weren't your girlfriend?

Ask me anything if you don't believe me. I can answer it all.

June 7th is the day we met.

Tulips are the first flowers you ever gave me.

Dalsenyu is the cafe we first met at.

You want to visit the Atacama Desert the most.

And my favorite thing is...

your clavicle.

I'm willing to stay up all night and answer any questions.

There's no way this is happening.

This makes no sense at all.

How dare you? You're a total psycho!

Hey!

Where's Ji Eun?

I asked, where's Ji Eun?

Yun Jae, calm down and listen to me.

- Let go. - Yun Jae...

I said let go, you bastard!

Hey.

In any case, where did you get Ji Eun's things?

Are you a stalker?

Get up. Let's go to the police station.

Let's see if you can tell them exactly what you told me.

Fine.

I'm willing to go to the police station.

But there's a place I need to take you before that.

So, you're saying...

the tattoo on Ji Eun's shoulder...

So...

that's what it was for?

To prove identity?

It's passed down genetically on my mom's side.

It's kind of like having high blood pressure or diabetes.

Passed down genetically?

To make a long story short,

it happened to our mom.

And it would happen on and off for generations in her family.

Depending on your luck, you either get it or not.

Turns out she's got it.

I'm supposed to believe this right now?

Of course, you don't believe it. I get it.

Actually,

I feel the same way.

The important thing is

that we know how this ends.

I'll turn back.

Like my mom.

I need time.

As long as you need.

You can take as long as you want.

But...

we're not...

ending it like this, right?

Yun Jae.

Park Yun Jae.

Can you please believe me, just this once?

♫ Can't stop, can't stop thinking about you ♫

♫ A breezy field in my memory ♫

♫ Memories arise one by one ♫

Ji Eun?

Hello.

♫ As pieces come together to form a shape ♫

♫ Will that moment come together as one? ♫

♫ Wake up and wake up ♫

♫ Every day endlessly ♫

♫ I'm standing at the start of the day once again ♫

♫ What if I have this girl, this girl on my heart ♫

♫ I can't seem to leave ♫

♫ I'm circling around you like this again ♫

Excuse me.

Are you Park Yun Jae?

Yes, I am.

Who are you?

I'm Song Ji Eun, your blind date today.

By chance, you're not Han Yun Jae, a business major

at Yeonhui University?

No, I'm Park Yun Jae, an astronomy major.

And you're not Song Ji Eun, an English major?

I'm Kim Ji Eun, a Korean major.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry. I'm sorry.

♫ You taught me how to fill with every world ♫

♫ And everything else we've been through ♫

Looking back,

every moment I shared with Ji Eun since the moment I met her

was a miracle to me.

It's different from what you can see with your bare eyes.

Up close,

it looks and feels very different.

I see...

Up close,

it's different.

How it feels,

and how it looks...

♫ Please let me stay ♫

♫ In a place where you belong ♫

I must be crazy.

I...

I don't know why I'm saying this,

but you're the first guy I've ever kissed other than my dad.

So, what I'm saying is I'm not usually this reckless...

♫ Must be the time with you ♫

I also don't know

why I'm saying this,

but it's my first time, too.

It's the first time my heart

is beating so fast looking at

something other than stars.

♫ We will ♫

♫ Through every tear, we will hold until we know ♫

♫ We will cuz we're intertwined ♫

♫ Intertwined ♫

Could this ridiculous incident

be another miracle I experience with Ji Eun?

- Hello? - Did you get home okay?

Who is this?

It's me, Ji Eun.

How dare you prank call me?

But still...

I'm actually teaching my girlfriend how to shave?

No, this is too much.

What if she nicks her face?

Whatever.

I'll just hand it to her, and she can figure it out.

You don't need to go that far.

Strangely, I'm getting butterflies.

Have you applied the medication?

Oh, this?

It looks bad, but it doesn't hurt.

You should still put on medication...

please.

What if it leaves a scar?

Let it leave a scar.

It's a badge of honor for getting punched by you.

Hey!

Don't say it like that.

- Please. - Decide if you're going to use honorifics or not.

Okay.

What do I do now?

Put some on both of your hands,

and spread it all across your face.

Yeah.

From top to bottom. Like this.

Pretty good.

This is so fun.

Don't I look like Santa?

Look at the mirror.

There's your razor.

Yeah.

Wipe.

Here.

Gently go over the foamy area from top to bottom.

Top to bottom?

Gently.

Be more gentle.

More.

Gentle.

I told you to be gentle.

Let me see.

Gosh, you're bleeding...

Angle is crucial

when it comes to shaving.

I'll show you.

Don't talk and stay still.

- Got it. - I told you not to speak.

Diagonally, from top to bottom. Slowly.

The angle is crucial.

Top to bottom.

Just like this.

Turn your head that way.

Like this?

Yes.

I'll do it.

Okay, here.

- Like this? - No.

The angle is a bit...

Like this? Okay...

Wait a second,

why is he so ridiculously good-looking?

Excuse me...

I'm heading out since we're all done.

Leaving already?

You only got here 30 minutes ago.

It's dinnertime. I should go. I need to get to work, too.

Your evening shift starts at 5 p.m.

It's only three right now.

Your sister's about to get home from work.

My sister's on a business trip to Busan.

I see...

She's usually glued to the house like she's part of the decor...

Why don't you stay for ramen?

Huh?

Stay and eat.

Stay and eat.

Do you not want to spend time with me?

Please. Huh?

Please.

- Huh? Pretty please. - I mean...

- I... - Oppa, please.

I need to go today.

What in the world?

Your dark circle has gotten even worse.

What's wrong?

Hey, Lee Min Hyeok.

How would you feel if your girlfriend

suddenly turned into a man?

Why would you say such a horrific thing?

And if he was better looking

and taller and stronger than you?

Oh, you're playing the balance game.

Is the guy friend more like a girlfriend

or the girlfriend more like a guy friend?

Yes, it's the balance game. What do you say?

The latter, of course.

That's not even a question.

I'm leaving.

All right.

Oh, right. Hyung.

I gave it some thought,

and if my girlfriend suddenly turned into a man one day,

I would ask her one thing for sure.

What?

What caused it?

- What caused it? - That's how it works in fairytales.

A broken promise, jealousy, or excessive curiosity...

There has to be a cause for the spell.

Once you figure out the cause, breaking the spell won't take long.

What caused me to turn into a man?

I'm not sure. There wasn't anything special.

Oh, right.

- Double-yoked egg. - Double-yoked egg?

Daebak.

That was the first time.

Seeing a double-yoked egg.

A double-yoked egg...

If all else fails, there's one last thing to try.

Just go in for it.

Just go in?

A kiss.

A kiss.

The ultimate cheat key

across all cultures and time is a kiss.

Of course, you would say that.

Kiss? Ridiculous.

If you're stuck in a shitty situation like that, just break up.

You're racking your brain because you can't break up.

So, do something about it!

Jelly?

I used to be really shy when I was a kid.

My mom would give me jelly

and told me I'd feel better if I ate it when I was nervous.

Maybe it was just a feeling,

but I would actually feel better.

You have me now. You don't need jelly anymore.

Excuse me.

There's nothing that requires more courage

than when you love someone.

I ate so many jellies dating you.

If I don't want to propose with dentures instead of a ring,

I'd better step up my game.

You're doing more than enough.

Stay just as you are.

That's all I need.

[Love Jello]

Who's there?

It's me.

Yun Jae.

Yun Jae?

What?

What brings you here at this hour?

There's something I have to do right now.

What are you talking about?

What is it?

Let's try using it.

The cheat key.

[Epilogue]

I need time.

As long as you need.

You can take as long as you want.

But...

we're not...

ending it like this, right?

Yun Jae.

Park Yun Jae.

Can you please believe me, just this once?

I couldn't believe it.

No, I didn't want to believe it.

Please.

I can't live without you now.

But I knew at that moment.

That this bastard standing in front of me

is really my girlfriend,

Kim Ji Eun.

♫ Open your eyes ♫

♫ See under the moonlight ♫

♫ I don't want to move ♫

♫ I'm still with you now ♫

♫ I feel your eyes ♫

♫ I don't want to feel my whisper ♫

♫ I want to be right ♫

♫ Open your eyes ♫

[My Girlfriend is the Man!]

I'm so scared Yun Jae will break up with me.

Honestly, I think it'll be tough to think of you as before.

- Gosh. - Huge eyes.

Pale skin.

Introduce me.

Yu Ri.

Who is that perfect man?

I'm Ji Eun. Kim Ji Eun.

Watch carefully.

Let this big sis teach you a lesson.

Hello.

I'm Lee Min Hyeok.

What? Where did you say you are?

You, bastard! Where's Ji Eun?

♫ I was lost ♫

♫ Leaving the orbit ♫
