OUR STICKY LOVE

What was that?

Why are you flustered?

Two years of living together, and a kiss shocks you?

- It was out of nowhere. - What is this, a drama?

Should I have set the mood?

I got you, didn't I? You're not my boyfriend.

Now, fess up.

Tell me who I really am

and who you are.

You're sure I'm not your boyfriend after one kiss?

If kissing a girl like me flusters you, it's one of two things.

Either you're not my boyfriend,

or you're gay.

I'm not.

- You want to make that clear? - Enough.

Don't do that again.

Just as I'm unfamiliar to you,

I also find my girlfriend, who's forgotten me, unfamiliar.

Eat that and take your meds.

I'm absolutely certain.

How is this what two years together looks like?

Sheesh, that woman…

Eel?

Goodness me.

I could've just eaten at home.

Why'd you bring a late-night snack all the way here?

You'd be hungry by the time you got home.

Oh boy.

And today's the day we finally open this.

I wanted to hurry and have a drink with you.

Let's toast.

- Cheers! - Hold it.

Instead of clinking glasses,

I'd rather bump something else first.

- Man, what the hell? - What?

Holy smokes.

I thought you went home a while ago.

I did, but I came back.

Do you

just go for it like that?

Without setting the mood or anything?

Is it normal to just go for it like that?

You're asking that at your age?

I should get going.

- No, please stay. - No.

- Tae-ha, I brought some eel. - Right.

- No, I'm good. - It's great for you.

No, Tae-ha. That ginseng liquor is good for you too.

- Please… - Drink up. I'll get going.

But…

Darn it.

Looks like I

interrupted.

Oh, forget it.

What the…

Why the heck are your cheeks so red?

Did you get beat up?

Come on. You think I'd get beaten up?

I'm asking because you're not.

Tell me.

Why are your cheeks on fire?

Seriously.

You got spooked and almost blew it over a kiss? And you call yourself a man?

I wasn't spooked.

Don't tell me it was your first.

Don't ask. It's a pride matter.

"Fried"? As in fried chicken?

You mean it's "private."

F-R…

You know?

Yikes, I should've made sure you hit some books too.

Why would you try to use our story as yours in the first place?

Besides, it wasn't even a toad. It was a snake.

At the very least, you need to be able to catch a snake

to make a girl swoon and fall for you.

If you told someone they fell for you over a toad,

who'd believe that, you foolish toad?

I don't know. My mind totally blanked for a second.

Oh man.

Unbelievable.

I can't believe I'm seeing the great Jang Tae-ha so humiliated.

Goodness.

Hey, since we're on the topic, let me ask you something.

What kind of debt do you owe Prosecutor Go exactly?

What could she have done to make you save her from the brink of death?

And why do you go as stiff as a plank when you're with her?

You've actually met her before.

I've met Ms. Prosecutor before?

Remember me when you make it.

Without me, you would have missed out on a medal.

When I win Olympic gold, I'll shout you out in my interview.

It was nice meeting you, Mr. Future Gold Medalist.

No way.

That feisty high school girl

is Prosecutor Go?

We parted ways like that

but met again eight years ago.

8 YEARS AGO, JAPAN

Why are you here?

Who are you?

Come on, this is a VIP room.

Go on. Get out of here.

Kill them!

Charge!

You bastards!

Come here, you bastard!

Hey.

Please don't kill me.

Count up what you've been skimming and send over our share.

Pull something like that again,

and it won't end at this.

Yes, understood.

Sir, everything's been taken care of, and it's drizzling.

How about some sake?

I'm good.

Don't mind me. Go relax and have fun with the boys.

Come on. How could we relax and have fun without you?

This card should do the trick.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

We'll see you later.

That's him. Let's go.

Get him!

- Hey, stop right there! - Stop!

Get him!

Step aside. Move!

The hell do you think I am?

Die!

- What's this? - What's this?

Hop on, quick!

Hurry!

Get out of the way!

Faster!

- How did you-- - How did I know you were Korean?

I saw you tell your friends to have fun with your card earlier.

But the people who followed you looked pretty dangerous.

There are a lot of yakuza here, so you have to be careful.

Something wrong?

By any chance,

have we met before?

2010 NATIONAL JUNIOR BOXING TEAM SELECTION

I guess not.

Yeah, I got away for now.

I'll find my way back. No need to come here.

You guys move hotels. Now.

What should I do?

I don't have any gas to get back.

I guess I rode a bit too hard earlier.

Then we should call the rental company--

It's the middle of the night, so they'll be closed.

I guess we have no choice. There's only one option.

Time will pass, and the sun will rise.

Let's wait until morning.

You're bleeding.

You must've gotten hurt earlier.

That's got to hurt.

All done. It won't get infected now.

You carry Band-Aids with you?

The backs of my heels chafe a lot.

And you carry whiskey with you?

I've only seen people carry these in movies.

Never in real life.

You must really like alcohol.

Or do you often feel like getting drunk?

Hey, wait a minute. You're putting it away?

It seemed like there was some left.

What else is there to do on a long night? We might as well drink.

That's strong…

Perfect.

Did you come out here with your friends?

I came alone.

I'd been feeling down since breaking up with my boyfriend.

It's normal to struggle to get over your first love, right?

My name is Go Ji-won.

But apparently my real name is Go Eun-sae.

- Go Eun-sae. - Yeah.

My mom left me at an orphanage right after she had me.

The head of the orphanage registered me as Go Ji-won,

but my name was Go Eun-sae in my mom's maternity notebook.

Pretty name, huh?

That's why

I'm pretty sure my mom loved me.

Who would give such a pretty name to a baby they don't love?

Don't you think?

What's your name?

Jang Tae-ha.

That's a really solid name.

What do you do for work?

You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.

As long as you're not a gangster.

You see,

I'm going to become a prosecutor who catches bad guys.

I'm in law school right now.

This place is so beautiful.

I bet living somewhere like this would feel like a dream.

Take a picture of me.

Thank you.

I wonder how it'll turn out.

You must like taking pictures.

Yeah, I've been taking pictures since I was a kid.

Shall we take one together?

It's actually…

my birthday today.

To celebrate.

Well?

What are you doing? Get over here.

Back in elementary school,

my eraser rolled over to my desk mate's side,

and all of a sudden,

they stabbed me in the butt with their pencil.

Isn't that ridiculous?

I'd always had two moles on my butt just below where they stabbed me.

The lead stabbed me in the perfect spot to make a triangle with the two moles.

So the mole on top is a different color.

It's like a pyramid. So stupid.

The sun's up.

Happy birthday.

All set.

There's no need to thank me, since I also had fun thanks to you.

When we go back to Korea…

can we keep in touch?

If not, never mind.

If we meet again…

I'll make sure to pay back the debt.

You better keep that promise.

I'll be off, then.

Damn.

That's some fateful encounter.

You know, all this time,

I thought what we had here was a film noir.

But, man!

Turns out it was a romance.

It's not like that.

I promised I would repay the debt, and she said I'd better keep that promise.

Besides, promises are meant to be kept.

We call that the stuff of romance.

Man.

I thought you were a guy who didn't know a thing about women.

I'm proud of you, Jang Tae-ha.

You have feelings for someone buried deep in your heart.

She didn't seem to dislike me before,

so I don't get why she's nitpicking everything

and is suspicious of me now.

Do you think it's because of my hairstyle?

Maybe you weren't prepared enough.

You should've bought some clothes from a department store in Seoul.

She's a young woman, and you filled her closet

with cheap clothes from the street market.

Hey, your wife bought all of those, remember?

Jeong-hwa's taste is a bit old-school.

And, to top it off, you're the one who recommended that flowery blanket.

Hey, don't women like flowers?

That's what I thought too.

Whatever. Look.

There's only one way.

You can't get flustered.

Even if something like this happens again,

you absolutely cannot get spooked.

When you've lived together for two years,

you're bound to bump lips all the time.

Some days, it gets pretty intense.

And some days,

it won't end at just lips.

The heck? What are you, a traffic light?

Why do you keep turning red?

Me?

Look at you.

Judging by the kiss, I'm certain he's not my boyfriend.

Then why did he bring me here?

Maybe he was my stalker who…

He's way too unfriendly for that.

Or was I kidnapped?

Am I filthy rich?

Seriously, what is all this?

I'm absolutely clueless.

Good job.

I've got a headache.

What is it?

Let's have breakfast.

I'm not hungry.

You didn't even touch the sushi I brought last night.

How could I eat it when I don't know what's in it?

Since it's from my non-boyfriend.

If you can't trust me,

at least buy yourself something to eat.

You shouldn't starve.

Everything must feel unfamiliar, so I wanted to stay with you,

but I have somewhere to be today.

It's something important.

I'm sorry.

It's totally fine.

I couldn't care less.

Still, being alone might be a bit weird,

so I invited someone.

It's been a while, Ms. Eun-sae.

We've met before too?

Well, of course.

I was your closest friend in the village.

Sorry?

Well, then. Please take good care of her.

Sure. Don't worry and go.

Go on.

I won't be late.

I guess he doesn't wear sweats all the time.

Quite dashing, isn't he?

Men look best in suits.

My husband in a suit would knock Park Bo-gum right out of the park.

There's such a man in this village?

You look different.

So you cleared out your place in Seoul.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for everything.

I know you like wine, so I got this for you.

Please accept it.

A parting gift, is it?

It's nothing compared to how you've taken care of me over the years.

A bottle of wine worth 100 million won is nothing?

Tell me, is this real?

Sorry?

Romanée-Conti is a wine that has a lot of counterfeits.

I paid full price at a wine auction in Spain.

It's authentic.

Turns out, money isn't a reliable way to tell what's real from what's fake.

Sometimes, you pay the full price

and still get fooled.

I would never give you anything fake, sir.

Of course not.

Jang Tae-ha.

You've never once disappointed me.

I don't know about the others,

but I trust you.

So what's the plan?

I'll put my gloves back on.

Boxing?

Yes, sir.

So…

I'm returning this to you.

It's a gift for taking off your gloves.

From now on, get in fights that reek of blood, not sweat.

GUJIN TAFFY VILLAGE

That place has great braised monkfish.

And this place does an amazing pollack stew.

What would you like?

You claim we were close, but you don't know a thing about me.

I don't like spicy foods.

I didn't eat anything smothered in sauce at the hospital.

Is that so?

So you can drop the act now. I don't believe you.

I'm going to figure out why Mr. Jang Tae-ha is lying

just to keep me here.

Okay.

Then why don't we eat

the tofu poke you used to love and figure it out?

Have you tried tofu poke?

It's delicious.

You don't eat rice because you're on a diet.

If you want to slim down, it's all about going hard on your meal plan.

I know all about you.

If you don't believe me, figure things out on your own.

Or don't.

Boy, the weather's nice.

Maybe I'll stop by the gym?

Come here and have some tofu salad.

It's called poke.

I only know about it because of Eun-sae.

It just looks like a bunch of raw veggies, but that's what the kids call it.

It's all just for show.

Oh my.

On your face, even a grain of rice

looks like a diamond, honey.

That's right.

Park Bo-gum.

What do you think? Isn't he handsome?

When he's all dressed up, he really does knock Park Bo-gum out of the park.

If Park Bo-gum heard that, he'd knock him out all right.

So you're saying I used to come here often?

- Yeah. - Of course.

We used to eat together like this, right here, all the time.

You don't believe me?

She's very suspicious.

Let's see. What could we…

Right.

These coupons here.

We collected so many because you often ate with us.

And what else?

Darn, my eyes are so blurry.

Then what's my go-to noodle order? Three, two, one.

- Spicy! - Black bean… spicy.

"Black bean spicy"?

Do you honestly expect me to believe any of this?

Whatever. This neighborhood has a psychiatrist, right?

Why do you ask?

I can't get a background check with these fingers,

so even the police can't help me.

I figured I'd get my head checked since I need my memory back fast.

What is it?

Is there any reason I can't get treatment and get my memory back?

Not at all. You should get your memory back.

- Yeah. - What are you doing?

Take her there in Bluey.

Yes, of course.

Let's go after we eat. Let's eat first.

GANGJU CITY HALL

Isn't it a bit odd?

It's been over three weeks, and not a single word from Prosecutor Go.

Why are you so worried?

You'd think you two dated for real.

Have you grown attached?

I went undercover to derail the investigation.

- I didn't expect this to happen. - Exactly.

If you'd kept her at the party, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Because of your mistake,

I may have to concede a move to Baek Sang-gil.

Do you know how serious this is?

Don't get all dramatic, pretending you have morals.

If you're a mole, act like one.

Just do as you're told.

Go Ji-won, just what were you thinking, disappearing like that?

Since they took your watch, you probably couldn't do…

Is this your trusty friend?

Yeah.

It better do a good job and not slack off.

Don't worry.

I have backup.

That's right.

The watch wasn't all.

- This van is called Bluey? - Yes.

We named it because of its bluish color

back when we were dating.

Then it must be quite old.

Vehicles may look different on the outside,

but the view from the inside is always the same.

What does it matter if it looks fancy to others?

What matters most is if it feels familiar and comfortable to me.

This…

My goodness!

This has never happened to our dear Bluey!

Dear Bluey, are you okay? Of course you're not!

Familiar and comfortable is good and all, but a vehicle has to be able to run.

- What should we do? - Just call the insurance.

I'll call the insurance company, and you head to the clinic, okay?

By "that way," which way did she mean? She could have given me proper directions.

Is Bluey her baby or something?

Oh no!

Thank you.

I thought I saw one over here.

Where did it… Excuse me.

Yes?

Hello. If you don't mind,

could you walk me to that building over there?

AN MENTAL HEALTH CLINIC

Sorry?

It's a waste to buy an umbrella for a short walk.

I'm also headed there, but I bought one.

Oh, really? That's great. If you're going that way, I'll join you.

You don't need to worry about tilting it my way.

All right, then.

- Excuse me. - What the heck?

- Why are you… - Could you raise it a little?

- Seriously, who even are you? - I just…

Would you like me to hold it?

No, I'm good.

I'm uncomfortable.

Watch out!

Your…

Your hair…

Take this…

I'm sorry.

I'm not very athletic.

I was trying to turn us 180 degrees, but I turned us the full 360.

Not athletic, my ass.

What a real piece of work.

Doors opening.

After you.

I caught some of the splash too.

Sure. Please wait a moment.

- Hello, I… - It's pouring outside.

- Hello, Dr. An. - Hi.

Doctor?

Shocker, right?

Well,

this is my clinic.

We have towels, don't we?

Yes, please, Hyang-seon. The rain got her good.

Oh my God.

DIRECTOR AN GI-JUN

So, you're saying,

even though we can't treat you because you're technically unidentified,

I should help you get your memory back?

Since I was a bit out of line earlier?

- I'll pay for dry cleaning and umbrella. - Seriously?

You can continue your treatment at the hospital you first woke up in.

It's a small country hospital. They can't give me professional treatment.

I understand your situation, but we have our own rules and procedures.

Don't rules and procedures come second to saving people with medicine?

If it was an emergency, of course I'd do that, but--

This is an emergency!

The man who claims to be my boyfriend might not be my boyfriend!

Then what would it be?

It's a crime.

Right now, Doctor,

you could be standing by and letting a crime happen.

- What, me? - Yes.

But I'm…

Couldn't he really be your boyfriend?

I'm telling you, that's impossible.

First of all, it makes no sense

that I'm in this backwater taffy village making taffy.

Taffy village? I used to live there.

What?

I know every taffy shop. Whose shop do you mean?

It's Jang Tae-ha's grandmother's.

Jang Tae-ha?

The guy who claims to be your boyfriend is Jang Tae-ha?

Yes.

Do you know him?

Well… I see.

DETECTIVE AGENCY

Yes?

Firstly, no hospitals in the capital area

had a patient named Go Ji-won.

Is that so?

But there was a hospital that had an unidentified patient come in.

A female who looked to be in her late twenties

to early thirties.

Where is that?

According to our regulations, we can't just treat you right now.

Come back with Mr. Jang Tae-ha.

We need at least one person who can vouch for your identity, Ms. Go Eun-sae.

Everyone in this place is obsessed with Jang Tae-ha.

- Hello. - Hello.

By any chance, the unidentified patient who left yesterday morning…

Is this her?

I'm not sure.

She has makeup on, so I can't tell if it's the same person.

It is the same person.

- Sorry? - It's the young lady who was in our room.

Are you sure?

Damn right I am.

Her groom-to-be took her home yesterday.

Her groom-to-be?

Ma'am, do you remember what he looked like?

He was handsome like an actor.

- Hong's… - Hong's?

Boxing Gym.

That's what it said on the van.

Hong's Boxing Gym?

Yes.

Those ladies are milling around like gangsters again.

They're no gangsters but the S.E.S of Taffy Village.

S.E.S?

They might look tough,

but they're actually lovely like fairies.

Do they have different TVs in Taffy Village?

Ladies!

- Hey! - Goodness!

I think she's parking.

Who's that with her?

It's that Gen Z kid.

MZ…

"Accurate spiritual readings"?

Yes.

Maeng-suk over there is a fortune teller.

Is she now?

Nothing.

Sorry?

Your face has…

My face?

…no writing.

- There's no writing? - Yeah.

It means she can't have been a judge or a prosecutor.

Yeah, I can tell that much too.

- Yeah. - Then what was I?

Then what could you have been?

What could you have been? Let's see.

Your name is Go Eun-sae. Not much luck with parents or siblings.

You were born in the fall, in the Year of the Black Rooster,

which means you have the Hwagae sign.

That means you've got a knack for the arts, pleasure, and even gambling.

But if someone helps keep you in check,

you can get through relatively unscathed.

And that someone

is Tae-ha, or so my spirit tells me.

Yes.

My, Maeng-suk. You're on a roll.

I see.

You know, while I was in the hospital…

Yes?

I did all kinds of experiments

to try and find out what I was good at.

- You did? - But I was absolutely awful at drawing.

And seeing how I couldn't figure out the rules of Go-Stop

even after watching the ladies play,

I don't think I have a knack for gambling.

So her reading's wrong?

Be honest. You're not actually spiritually gifted, are you?

- What? - You know everyone in the village.

You probably know all about them, down to the cutlery in their homes,

so your readings were right.

But you can't guess anything right about an outsider like me.

- It's pretty much a scam. - What?

- Scam… - Scam?

Enough. Get out.

Out at once!

My spirit is livid and refuses to tell you anything else, so get out.

What kind of spirit gets upset so easily and refuses to say anything?

Shouldn't spirits be more generous than humans?

What are you yapping about right now?

You heard me.

I can't give you this. Goodbye.

I can't let you do that.

I can't let you do that either.

Why, you…

What the hell do you think you're doing?

What are you doing?

I just…

I won't let go until you pay me for the reading.

You didn't get anything right. Why should I pay you?

- Let go. - You said you don't remember anything.

So how would you know if I'm right or wrong?

- How? - That hurts!

- Hey, both of you. Let's talk it out. - Let go!

I can't let go until you pay me.

Let go!

- Who did that? - I don't know.

- Oh, revered spirit! - Oh dear.

The person who broke my revered spirit

should pay for it, of course!

Who else should pay for it?

How do we know whether I broke it or you did?

- What did you say? - What?

The reason this happened in the first place

is because you refused to pay for your reading.

Exactly.

If you hadn't tried to scam me in the first place,

I would have paid you.

- Scam? - Scam?

- Easy. - Ms. Eun-sae.

- Ms. Eun-sae. - Okay.

Okay. Let's say that, in your opinion, none of the readings were correct.

Even so, Maeng-suk is your elder.

It's not right for you to talk to her like that. Don't you agree?

- That's right. - Ma'am.

What's age got to do with it?

If you're older, can't you be called out for doing something wrong?

Then I guess this grandma here

is free to scam all of you ladies, since she's the oldest.

What do you mean?

I'm only 17.

Where did you learn to twist people's words like that?

I'm sorry.

Tae-ha!

Tae-ha, look at how she's acting.

- Tae-ha. - How could she…

I'll pay for the damage.

Tell me the amount with the reading fee.

Why would you…

Hey, wait. Let go of me.

Come on, I'm not done talking.

Seriously, let go of me!

If you just come and apologize, what does that make me?

If you say you'll pay for the damage, that means I did wrong!

Should I have just let them bad-mouth you? Better to settle it quickly.

It's not about settling things. It's about getting the facts straight.

You trust me less than a shaman?

Yes.

- I wouldn't have gone if I didn't have to. - Why is it so hard to believe me?

Is it so hard to accept that we dated?

- It is. - Why?

First things first. You're not the type of guy I'd fall for.

What is your type?

Cha Eun-woo.

Oh, come on.

At the very least,

you're not my type.

And second, your kiss was too clumsy.

You don't kiss like that after two years together.

And third,

you're not warm.

I went to the gym earlier.

I could tell right away with the Hongs that they're madly in love.

The term "heart eyes" isn't just a saying.

When you're truly in love, you can't hide it. The eyes give it away.

But

your eyes are cold.

I can't read your thoughts from your eyes,

let alone your feelings for me.

That's the ultimate reason I don't believe you, Mr. Jang Tae-ha.

Some people can't afford to have their emotions read.

Still going with the cool act?

No one's like that.

- I knew this would happen. - What should we do?

What else?

Go and get me another pair.

And leave you here alone?

No, it's dangerous.

What could be so dangerous in a country village?

At most, a deer might jump out.

Should I…

carry you?

Don't get clever with me.

You could have gone and come back by now.

Fine. Wait here for a second.

What happened?

What's wrong? Are you okay?

I'm not okay.

I said I'm not okay.

Put yourself in my shoes. You have no idea how scared I am.

I woke up and couldn't remember a thing.

I'm told I don't have any family,

I don't have any of my friends' numbers,

and my so-called boyfriend

doesn't seem like my boyfriend at all, no matter how I look at him.

But there's nothing I can do.

I have no money and nowhere to go.

And I don't even have my memory.

See? I told you.

I'm crying like this, but you're just standing there doing nothing.

What kind of boyfriend does that?

How am I supposed to believe you when you act like this?

Your eyes are cold.

I can't read your thoughts from your eyes,

let alone your feelings for me.

That's the ultimate reason I don't believe you, Mr. Jang Tae-ha.

I'll make you believe.

What?

So don't cry.

First, put these on.

Now listen carefully.

I liked you from the moment I saw you.

I wanted to ask for your name and number,

but I couldn't say anything.

I regretted that for a long time…

and I couldn't stop thinking about you.

I just hoped…

to see you again someday.

And I was so happy when we finally met.

Even then, I beat myself up for not having the courage to tell you how I felt.

I vowed that if we ever met again,

I'd never let you go.

I made that vow over and over again.

Seeing you hurt was unbearable. It killed me.

If only I could…

I would have killed…

every last soul who did this to you.

I'm sorry I'm not Cha Eun-woo.

And for not expressing myself well.

You're the only woman I've ever liked,

so I don't really know how.

And as for…

the clumsy kiss…

That man is Mayor Ju's aide.

He went undercover to gather information on the prosecution.

The clumsy kiss…

Forget it.

This one's for real.

OUR STICKY LOVE
