Ladies and gentlemen,

we're witnessing one of the greatest Cinderella stories in sports history.

After South Korea's top table tennis player fell ill to a mysterious malady,

Yoo Dae-su, until now unknown, has stepped into the spotlight

with the potential to bring home gold.

It's the first year the International Games has recognized table tennis.

And it's the first International Games Korea has ever hosted.

So yeah, I feel some pressure to win.

I will win.

Dae-su? What is all that?

What-- what is this...

And just like that, Korea's newest table tennis golden boy is gone.

Right on the edge of greatness.

I'm serious! I don't know where that came from!

How could he have been so careless?

It looks like Korea's hopes for gold have been dashed.

At this point, could anyone step in

and take the place of a talent

like Yoo Dae-su?

Wow.

I mean, wow. That was

different than in the real world.

It's like being kissed from every possible angle.

I mean, I wish you hadn't shoved me into an open grave and

buried me alive first, but

would I do it all again for a kiss like that?

You bet I would.

What's wrong?

Nothing, I don't... I'm fine.

Do you know how long I've been looking for you?

Did you steal a police car?

Get in the car, Devin.

It's Evan.

You want me to follow them?

No. I think we better go back.

We're here, Joon.

She kissed him.

- I know. - I saved her life.

And she kissed him.

I know, Joon.

I blew up a factory,

killed dozens of vampires

and crossed over to the real world

and she kissed him.

Oh! Oh! What the-

So you kidnapped us because…

you're the good guys?

Children are kidnaped. You're adults. We abducted you.

Guys! This is my dad, Doug.

- Hi. - Claire Duncan.

- Very pleased to meet you. - You, too.

And this is Melvin.

Come on. That doesn't even rhyme with Evan.

Sorry, Kevin. Uh, Evan.

- Evan. - Evan.

- You're an evil little girl. - Hey.

Seo-yeon, hi!

Right, you don't remember me. I'm Claire.

We were friends before.

- Okay, it can wait. - Okay, friends.

Now we are in uncharted territory.

Changes have been made with the best of intentions,

but unintended consequences are a law in Dramaworld.

Australian frogs.

Now, I don't know Seth's plans.

But it's up to us, the six of us, including you two, to stop him

How?

With this.

Right now, you're furious with Claire, but you shouldn't be.

I would've lost it!

It was the same thing with me and Seo-yeon last time.

It's not her fault she doesn't love you.

- Doesn't love me? - It's this place.

Let's not forget,

it hasn't been that long since you were falling in love with a different woman.

You remember Ji-won, don't you?

Ji-won?

Joon Park...

You see the way she's looking at you?

How she gives you the benefit of the doubt.

Why do you think Dramaworld wipes everyone's mind clean after each series?

Because if they remembered the truth,

if they saw how empty the idea of love really was,

they'd never get out of their beds.

Tell me what's going on!

This weirdo made Hyun swap me for some sort of power!

Exactly!

Hyun gets it. Power.

That's real. That lasts.

You look confused.

Well, I wanted Ji-won here for a reason, Joon.

You need to see the true effects

of Dramaworld on the soul.

What are you doing?

Seth!

I'm not going to hurt you.

What are you doing?

Open your eyes.

Sam…

Baby.

My daughter…

I'm so sorry…

Thank you.

Okay, so the fate of Dramaworld

is resting on the shoulders of my cracked phone?

It's actually not that simple. You see, this is your portal.

This is how you got into Dramaworld and how Seth got in this time.

And also how we get him back out.

Duh.

The problem is the portal is closed.

But if Dramaworld was pissed off enough about something a facilitator did--

Then she would try to get rid of them. Okay, sure.

But hasn't Seth screwed up the world enough already?

Well, you would think so, but no.

because when Sam here gave you a second season,

Dramaworld was pushed into a place she'd never been before.

Love doesn't get a second season.

Thus something new was created, pulling the entire world into this mess.

And instead of asking for help,

she just thinks it's all part of the drama.

So how can we screw up Dramaworld more than it is?

I mean everything has gone wonky already.

He's the only leading man left.

How much wronger could you get?

Unless...

He wasn't.

Doug, come with me, the rest of you stay here.

- Wait. Can I go with you? - No, you're supposed to be dead.

Where are we going?

The International Games.

Do you see what this place does to the heart?

What it did to Ji-won, could you wish that on anyone?

No.

Can I tell you a story?

When I was a kid, I was in love with this girl, Ashley.

And to try to win her, I pretended to be you.

But even with the perfect words, she didn't love me back.

No one has ever loved me back.

And for the longest time, I thought it was me.

But after Seo-yeon, I realized I'm not the problem.

Love is the problem. It's a lie we all tell ourselves.

It's a lie this world is based on.

It's a lie we all believe.

What's your name?

Han-ju.

Han-ju, tell me.

Do you believe in love?

I thought I did.

But the man I love… he vanished.

My dowry was already paid. Now I have nothing.

See?

Love can't be trusted.

Let me give it a try.

That's way harder than it looks!

Step one, we're going to need to buy some drugs.

I've got a buyer who wants a bag of drugs.

That was easy.

Step two, plant the drugs.

Hey, you're Yoo Dae-Su, right? These are your official balls.

Okay, good luck.

Step three, doctor a few documents.

APPROVED

Step four, seal the deal.

Hey.

Before we go in, can I just say something?

- Yeah. - Choose Evan.

- What? - Sam told me everything.

He seems like a nice guy.

If you're smart, you'll get out of Dramaworld,

let Joon fade into a distant memory and go live your life.

You think that will make me happy?

Well, that's not up to me.

Come on.

And today, Yoo Dae-Su Yu was arrested--

That's it. It's done.

It's all finished!

All of that work… My dream!

It's all gone.

It's finished…

Hyun, I feel terrible, I mean...

If I'd known who he was, I never would have sold him all those drugs.

Mr. Jang, with your ties into the world of table tennis,

I thought you might be able to recommend a few talented amateurs.

I love the game, but I can't think of anyone that's particularly talented.

I can't even think of a player who's ever beaten me.

Are you telling me that you are an undefeated table tennis player?

Well, yes, but--

And you're already part of the league, so...

You're eligible.

You want me to represent Korea in the International Games?

No, no.

We need you to represent Korea at the International Games.

No.

Claire, I'm a gangster.

A gangster-- a bad guy!

I traded Ji-won to Seth for these.

Okay, time to make up for it.

Because today, Hyun, you get to be the freaking hero.

When did you learn to do this?

I'm almost 500 years old. Of course I've done stuff like this.

They make love seem so simple.

Why is it so complicated for Claire and Joon this time?

Maybe they weren't meant to be. Ever think about that?

They are!

Their true love's kiss saved Dramaworld!

And then he kissed your mom.

That wasn't a "your mom" joke.

Joon kissed Ji-won.

How do you know that wasn't true love?

I hate you.

I'm one of the good guys here, Sam.

Good guys never have to say that they're good guys.

They just do good guy stuff.

Then give me the book. Let me help.

My parents have been married for 25 years.

They still hold hands when they go to the movies.

They still get in fights when my dad says stupid stuff.

If true love is meant to be, it's meant to be.

If it's meant to last, it will.

That goes for your mom and dad, too.

Maybe there's something in here you missed.

Not a chance!

Even so.

No one knows quite where he came from, but Hyun Jang is emerging

as a favorite among a very talented group of athletes all vying for gold

in table tennis's first year at the International Games.

Maybe it's because I'm Korean, but I personally look forward to seeing

how far this talented athlete can go…

If he wins this, he advances to the final round.

And becomes a country's hero.

A violent, drug dealing, gangster vampire.

That traded my wife to a psychopath.

Yeah, no, for sure. Worst leading man ever.

I mean Dramaworld is going to lose her freaking mind!

Especially after step five.

But then what's step six? Joon?

Evan? Joon?

Evan? Joon? Evan? Joon? Evan?

Joon?

So you just stopped believing in love?

It's not quite that simple.

When our pal, Claire, told you that you were a character in a drama,

how did you feel?

Confused.

Angry. Lied to.

I didn't want to believe it.

Right. But deep down, you knew it was true.

That little missing piece made everything else make sense,

even if it felt like it was tearing you apart.

That's the pain you're feeling now. It's not heartbreak.

It's the pain of having lived in the dark and seeing sunlight for the first time.

Your heart is admitting that love is a lie.

Company halt!

Salute!

Sir, Officer Kim is no longer in the shower.

That's some good news. Is he okay?

I don't know…

He's vanished.

What?

I should've stayed home...

Talk about unexpected.

A complete unknown, Hyun Jang, has come out of nowhere

to absolutely dominate the competition.

And he seems to have developed quite the following in a very short time.

It all comes down to this, the final match.

If he manages to take this game,

Hyun Jang's life will never be the same.

With this one win,

whatever he was before will disappear

because after today he'll be a hero.

We're expecting him any moment.

Claire,

if I win the gold medal…

do you think that makes up for all of the terrible things I've done?

Why not?

I want you to have this.

As a thank you for everything you've done.

For my family.

Thanks.

Oh, yeah, dude, sure, of course. Go, go, go.

Go get'em.

It's wonderful watching you work.

Man, I used to love facilitating.

What happened?

Well, I was in a love triangle just like you.

And I had to choose. On one side was Sam's mom,

who I loved more than the world, and on the other side was, well...

the world.

You chose Dramaworld over Ji-won.

- It was the biggest mistake I ever made. - So I should choose Joon.

Claire.

You should choose love.

- I might just throw up. - I might just throw up.

Even if your dad's idea works,

Seth might just be able to get back in, right?

I mean, he screwed up Taste of Love,

but somehow managed to get back in.

What's stopping him from just doing the same thing again

and again and again and again?

I don't know.

This place is all about love,

and he doesn't care about it, even a little.

He must have before.

To love K-drama, you have to love the idea of falling in love.

But now all he does is ruin things!

So you need to make sure that Seth can never come back, right?

Yeah.

How about this one?

"Death in a drama is only temporary."

"There's always the next series."

The death rule?

Yeah, I mean...

You said everything would be better if Seth were gone, right?

But…

Hold up, did it just...

Think back to before Claire.

You fell in love with Seo-yeon over and over.

And wasn't it just as real all of those times?

And the feelings you were developing for Ji-won

that wouldn't have been love if that little girl hadn't re-written the rules.

She said you want to rewrite the rules.

Of course, I do.

So you could take over this place, so you could destroy love.

Love is the most malicious force there is.

Without it, there's no jealousy, no violence, no wars.

I just want people to wake up.

But I need your help.

Where's Daniel?

Everyone came to see Daniel.

You two... you two will just have to go on without him.

Hey! I'm a member, too.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are now in the fourth hour of what is by far the

longest table tennis match in history!

Every stroke counts. It's 21 to 20.

The game must be won by two points, and Hyun is one point ahead.

Just one more point, and he will be a living legend in Korea.

It's over! It's over! Hyun Jang has won the gold!

After an incredibly long game, Hyun Jang finally--

Okay, step five.

Here we go.

Claire!

I sure hope this works.
