Episode 1

Lady...

Lady!

Lady!

There was no one following me.

Lady!

You wench!

How dare a fox like you covet a human heart!

Wench!

Are you still running away?

Take one step, he'll be dead!

- Get on your knees right now! - Young Master!

No! Leave me, Lady!

Now!

No!

Hold on!

The story is over if he dies.

No, it's not. With the love of a gumiho, he also becomes immortal.

I see.

But still, that's going too far.

Going too far?

Even as a gumiho, she's willing to turn her lover into another gumiho, too?

Well then, I don't need to publish this book.

Wait!

What's your hurry...

Even without a book, do you you know how many members are on my website?

That's why we want to publish your book.

We'll start with the book. If it goes well, it can be made into a movie, too!

A movie?

You can write whatever story you want...

Let's just sign the contract now.

- Can I take a look? - Of course, take your time.

By the way, why do you keep writing only about a gumiho?

Because I've met her when I was little.

I was about six-years old? I got lost in the mountain, then...

A gumiho?

Come on.

- I can sign here? - Yes.

- Director. - Yes?

Wait!

[You call this a book? A dog could write it. I could write it, too!]

Stupid idiots... who's calling who a copycat author?

Actually, it's pretty similar to Twilight.

I mean, these stories tend to be similar...

Just watch. I'll clear my name for sure.

You're starting now?

You're not going to sleep? You stayed up all night last night.

I'm sorry, Writer Hong. A contract in this situation is a bit...

When you have a good story next time...

And I'd prefer one with no question of plagiarism.

Just wait. I'll definitely write one. Absolutely!

Yeo Joo!

You stayed up all night again?

Hey! What's wrong with you?

Ji Soo...

Just when I'm about to write, it feels like I'm taking it from a movie...

And I'm about to write something different, it feels like I'm taking it from a book...

What do I do, Ji Soo?

Why don't you write about a real person?

Some famous writers use real people as characters in their book.

Real people...

Come get me!

This rotten world... I'll kill you all!

Let's do it!

Bastard... What are you, bastard!

Someone please call the police!

- Are you okay? - Yes.

I don't know him. All of a sudden...

He was probably hallucinating. I calmed him down, so don't worry.

He's definitely got it.

But what should I say?

Alex!

- Isn't it cold? I warmed it up for you. - Thank you.

I should stop drinking this.

By the way, Jin, have you seen my diary?

[Nail Shop Paris]

Nail Shop Paris?

These are the popular patches these days...

Alex...

Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for 30 minutes.

I'm sorry, I had something to take care of.

The one I got done the other day... it's chipped a bit.

Please sit. I'll fix it right now.

What the... is he a male manicurist?

- Miss. - My goodness! Yes?

Are you here for a nail care?

Not right now, a little later.

What was that...

I thought he'd be some agent... or at least a detective.

This is pretty.

Are you comfortable?

That's not it.

A male protagonist is a manicurist...

There hasn't been any story on this.

[Hiring Interns Sex - Male, Age 23-27]

Paris?

Girl, put some egg in ramen.

Do you know about the place?

Of course! It's a really popular place. I hear a lot of celebrities go there, too.

- So, the guy is a manicurist there? - Yeah.

Wow, then he must be really handsome. Right?

Sure. Anyway, I think I'll work there.

As it happens, they're hiring interns now.

Hiring? They only hire guys.

That's why you need to help me.

You're an assistant, but still a makeup artist at a TV station.

Me?

Hong Yeo Joo, you mean...

I just want to learn about him for a bit, then I'll quit right away.

But what if you get caught?

What if you end up in jail for fraud and forging documents?

Kim Ji Soo, you understand how important this story is to me.

If I hear plagiarist one more time, I have to quit my job as a writer!

Okay...

Instead, you have to listen to me.

Do I really have to go this far?

I can wear a wig or something.

- Then forget it. - Fine.

- Don't cut it too short. - Okay, just trust me.

Done! How do you like it?

- It hurts! - You can't take it? Let's go for a little more.

Not good.

Starting now, I'm not Hong Yeo Joo, I'm Hong Ki Joo.

Hello.

Who are you looking for...

Hiring...

I heard you're hiring.

Please follow me.

Excuse me.

Ma'am, he's here for an interview.

I see.

Then.

- Have a seat. - Thanks.

Who is that?

Interviewing for an intern position.

But he looks familiar somehow.

Does he have a familiar face?

Mr. Hong Ki Joo?

It can't be an easy decision to work in nail art as a man.

Since when did you have an interest in this?

Well, it's been a while.

Which style do you like better between French and gradation?

These days decals and patches are popular, too.

What?

That's...

Don't worry. You can learn from the beginning in my shop.

Thank you.

By the way, do you know anything about my shop?

About?

Have you heard that this place is different from the typical nail salon?

Oh, that only male manicurists work here...

Yes, that's what's special, too.

But what's more important is the reason that only male manicurists work here.

You must know that the main clientele of nail salons are women, right?

Yes.

They come here to have their hearts taken care of, not just their nails.

You sit close enough to feel the other person's breathing...

Hold her hands and listen to her. That's the place.

Doesn't everyone need that kind of place?

Especially for women. Don't you agree?

I see.

Maybe you don't know much about it because you're not a woman?

Oh, that's right.

Thank you.

Hello!

- Welcome! - Hi, Jin!

Wow, your skin is beautiful. I almost want to take a bite out of it!

You shouldn't bite me!

- Hi, Alex! - Please have a seat.

Are you busy now?

No. Is there a problem with your nail again?

No. I get hand cramps, maybe from the cold weather?

Can you massage my hands?

- Yes. Jin, bring her some tea please. - Okay.

Why tea? I like coffee.

Take a look.

The nails have many lines and they don't turn pink right after you press them.

- That's right. - It means you have anemia.

Coffee is not good for you.

Of course. Alex, you're the only one who cares about me.

- Well, shall we start? - Sure.

How may I help you?

That... over there.

The picture over there. How much does it cost?

Excuse me.

It depends on the material, but it's about 200,000 won.

And what's this about?

What's the deal with that man?

That's why Paris only hires male manicurists.

Just like the pretty boy Paris in Greek mythology...

Wise and handsome men take care of the wounded hearts of women...

And listen to their worries. How about that?

Do you want to work with us, Ki Joo?

Are other nail salons like that too?

- Ji Soo, please go out with me. - Well, that's not really...

- Ji Soo! Please go out with me just once! - What to do...

Again?

She doesn't like things like this.

Give her something to eat or to wear, something helpful!

- Yeo Joo... - What? Do you like him?

No, that's not the case...

Did you hear that? She doesn't like you.

Let's go.

Yeo, Yeo Joo! I'm sorry, Min Shik.

What are you going to do? Looks like he's upset.

Sorting this out early will help him.

But still, you went too far.

Kim Ji Soo, do you actually enjoy this?

No! He's putting in so much effort, so how can I refuse him?

He'll have a hard time.

Are you trying to win the Nobel Peace Prize?

By the way, how did it go?

Of course I got the job. Who am I?

I'm starting tomorrow.

Really? What about him?

Did you see him again?

- Do you want to see him? - Yes!

- He's so handsome! - Right?

I'm going to find out everything about him, his personality, hobbies, likes and dislikes.

I have a feeling my greatest masterpiece is about to be created!

I'm going to start writing today so don't interrupt me!

Fantasy novel. Title, love of a thousand years.

Introduction of characters.

Name of the male protagonist, Alex. Age 28. Tall and handsome.

He doesn't stand for injustice.

This is Hong Ki Joo, he'll be working with us starting today.

Nice to meet you, I'm Jin.

Kei.

Nice to meet you. I'm Alex.

- His voice is soft, too. - Take good care of him.

His hobby is...

What's your hobby?

Well, I like reading and going to the movies...

But is that important?

No, just asking.

By the way, your name is Hong Ki Joo?

That name doesn't suit you. Do you know that?

What do you think, Bunny? You don't like it?

- Right, Bunny! How about Bunny? - What?

Your appearance and your lost expression... you look just like a surprised bunny. Right?

Doesn't he, Kei?

What do you think, Bunny? You don't like it?

That's not it.

Let's speak informally. We're the same age.

Sure...

Jin, have him change his clothes. We're about to open.

That's right. Bunny, let's go.

He's really excited to have a junior.

Do you... know him, by any chance?

Who? Bunny? No, why?

Nothing, nothing.

What was that.

This is a break room, and over there is the kitchen.

Go change.

From now on, this is your locker, Bunny. Here.

What are you doing? Hurry and change.

What? Me?

Bunny, you're embarrassed.

Okay, change and come out.

His hobbies are reading and going to the movies.

He is the eldest of the group and seems well-trusted.

Very clean and organized.

His favorite style seems to be... the comfortable dandy look.

What are you doing?

Oh, that's mine.

[Happy Wedding Nail]

What's up?

- Where are you? - Where could I be? I'm at Paris. Why?

Are you okay? You haven't been caught yet?

I'm fine.

But still, don't let your guard down.

Men and women just feel different.

When you get surprised or embarrassed, and especially when you go to the bathroom!

Hey, I'll take care of myself, so if you don't have anything to say, hang up.

Yes, okay.

Girl, you think I'm you?

Mother...

That's unusual.

If you have any difficulties or questions, ask me anytime.

Thank you.

Nothing works better when I'm tired.

When he's tired, he enjoys canned coffee.

- Hello! - Welcome!

Welcome. What's the occasion?

These cupcakes are delicious, so I wanted to share with the Paris family.

Wow, you're the best! I'll bring the drinks.

Thanks!

Who is she?

- She's a regular... or, rather, family? - What?

Anyway, she probably knows better about Paris than me.

Wow, that looks so delicious!

Who...

Oh, introduce yourself, Bunny. He started today.

- I see. Sit, and let's eat together. - Thank you.

Oh, Tae Hee, I have a client too.

Go ahead.

Thank you for this.

Your name is Bunny?

You do look as cute as a bunny.

- You'll have quite a few fans, too. - Fans?

The manicurists at Paris are more popular than some idol celebrities.

There are even fan clubs.

Jin who just left... His nickname is Smiley Angel.

With every smile, he earns a hundred more fans.

And Kei's nickname is Ice Prince.

He looks tough, but somehow lonely...

He brings out women's maternal instinct.

Then, what about Alex? Does Alex have fans, too?

Well, you could say all the women over 30 who come to this salon.

Alex used to study traditional medicine.

Traditional medicine? Then why...

He had some sort of an accident.

Just come here.

Have a seat, don't say you don't want to.

They don't like people like us.

If you leave like this, that'll be worse.

Since you're already here, why don't you have a seat for your husband?

Hello, call me Jin.

Could you give me your hands?

What are you doing?

I said, I don't need it...

We'll start with a hand massage.

- Jin. - Oh, right, please sit.

We'll start Jin's happiest sparkling hand massage.

Could I see you for a sec?

What are you doing?

Right.

Thanks Bunny.

Help yourself.

Both of your hands look similar.

Sometimes hands have more stories than you can say.

Your wife's hands and yours...

They show that you both work hard and care for each other.

If she didn't meet me...

She suffered too much because of me.

I couldn't give her a wedding ceremony, so I wanted to get her a nice wedding ring...

But because of that damn accident...

I worked hard for weeks without eating or sleeping.

And I borrowed from here and there and finally saved enough to get a wedding ring...

I caused an accident while I was working as a driver.

That's why you wanted to get her nails done instead.

- Instead of a wedding ring. - Yes.

Hold on, Miss. We just got done with the basic care.

It's okay. That was enough.

But...

Thanks, Jin. Please come this way.

The basic care is 15,000 won.

Thank you.

Sir, congratulations!

You won the prize for the special event this week as the 100th guests!

Special event?

If you come back tomorrow evening, I'll provide a special care service.

What about the cost...

Since it's a special event, it's for free. Don't worry.

Thank you.

Please come back tomorrow.

How lame...

Was my acting that bad?

Yes.

So, what you're saying is to give a special service for that couple, Alex?

Yes, it's in place of a wedding ring.

I'm in!

Let's do something really special for them.

Well, let's try.

It's been decided then. Alex, come up with a basic design and color.

Kei, think of the decoration that goes with the wedding theme.

Work hard, everyone.

- What are you doing? - Well, just...

The guys will come up with a piece of art.

Those two won so many awards from nail art contests.

Let's go!

Does this happen often?

They just can't look the other way.

By the way, is it true?

That Alex studied traditional medicine...

You must have heard it from Tae Hee. It's true.

So why...

He had some accident when he went out to a hospital for his internship.

Anyway, after that, he quit studying!

And transformed himself as a nail artist!

He was always interested in diagnosing with hands even when he studied medicine...

Anyway, from traditional medicine to psychology, he knows about everything.

It's too bad. I was going to suggest a grand welcome party for you.

Oh, after that clients tomorrow evening, we'll get you a real party!

- Look forward to it! - I will.

I'm going this way. Ciao, Bunny!

Story of a manicurist who gave up traditional medicine...

There is no other drama like this.

Score! Yay!

Good morning!

Hello.

Did you... stay up all night?

You must be really tired.

I won't cause trouble because of it. Don't worry.

What about you? Isn't it tough on you?

I'm okay. I'll go change.

What's going on with this...

Good morning.

Where are you going? Aren't you going to change?

I'll change in the bathroom.

What kind of man...

Hey, Beanie! Put this on.

I stayed up all night drawing, my shoulders are aching like hell.

What's wrong?

I'm putting it on now.

Good, right?

I'll get going.

What's up with him?

Wait, Tae Hee didn't stop by today.

Does she really come every day?

Yeah. Was it about a month ago?

She even paid three million won and bought a VVIP membership.

- She must be really rich. - Yeah, her husband owns a private medical practice.

I won a prize for some event yesterday...

I see.

It's the right one.

Excuse me, could I watch it too?

Of course. Well, should we get started?

Do you like the color?

Yes, I really do. Is it done?

Not yet. Please wait.

Here... it's done.

It looks like a wedding ring.

Thank you so much. I don't know how to thank you...

Pause!

Here is bonus!

A gift certificate for a free night at a hotel.

It's in Seoul, but I hope you spend a lovely night for your honeymoon.

Thank you, thank you!

- Good night. - Thank you!

- Oh? Hello! - Hi!

- Hello! - Hi!

Introduce yourself, Bunny.

This is Woo Min, the owner of this restaurant and our mentor.

Nice to meet you.

This is Bunny, new at Paris.

Pick one card.

Are you... hiding something?

This card of moon means secret, curiosity, mystery.

Tell me what that secret is.

I don't have one.

It's true.

Don't worry about it. He's just really into occult stuff.

Or is it... a love triangle?

Okay, let's drink up!

Cheers!

Jin's really excited.

Are you okay?

Pull yourself together, Hong Yeo Joo!

If you get drunk here, it's over.

Give me that empty glass.

No more. I'm not drinking anymore.

What are you talking about?

- That's right, Jin, let's stop here. - What do you mean? We have to see the end of this.

We'll shut this place down, then we'll all sleep at Alex's place!

- Alex's place? - It's okay with you, Alex?

Fine by me.

Sounds good.

Let's see the end of this.

I can't miss this golden opportunity. Of course not!

So this is Alex's place...

As expected, very clean.

Since there isn't much of instant food, he must be cooking, too.

What's going on?

What are you?

What are you to keep hovering over Alex?

Are you, by any chance... gay?

No, I'm not!

And when did I hover over him?

I'm tired. Good night.

What the... It's not like he's a girl...

So? You slept with guys? In the same room?

No one there thinks I'm a girl anyway.

But still... I'm really nervous, Yeo Joo.

I had a dream again last night that the police arrested you...

Enough already.

I'm thinking about quitting anyway.

Why? Did you get caught? See, see!

That's not it. There is someone who's suspicious of me.

I'll go today and if anything happens, I'll just quit.

It's new.

It's still warm.

If they come this way, then...

- I'm sorry, I'm late. - Good morning, Bunny.

Is that for me? I was just thinking about it. Thanks!

What's wrong with him?

Hangover from last night.

This is why I told you to go easy.

Don't scream in my ear. It's so loud.

Laughing? Follow me.

Are you telling me to move all this?

You're the size of a bean, but you're still a man. You can't?

Of course I can.

Alex!

What happened? What's wrong with him?

After drinking the coffee that Bunny gave him...

I think it's glue.

- What's this, you bastard? - I don't know either...

You brought it!

I don't know, I just found it outside.

Calm down, Kei!

Jin and I will take Alex to the hospital. Kei, check the CCTV.

This is...

It's Tae Hee.

Everyone was worried for me, so it's my treat.

Wow, then let's go to sauna. How about it?

Shall we?

Aren't you taking a shower? Kei went ahead.

What do I do?

- You're even jealous? - What was that?

People like you who think they're the best...

You make me gag. You smell rotten.

- What, you bastard! - Kei!

What's this?

- It's MP3! - Do you have something weird in here?

- Weird? - For example...

Moaning sounds.

Hey! It's not!
