CRASH COURSE IN ROMANCE

ALL CHARACTERS, LOCATIONS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS

DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA ARE ENTIRELY FICTITIOUS

Did you even read the post?

Look at it in context.

He didn't lead her on.

She's the one who made a move and threw herself at him--

It's not like that.

I offered to tutor the student.

And I'm the one who had feelings.

Not her.

She only treated me as a teacher,

so I'm the one at fault.

I never deserved her.

She is extremely kind-hearted

and shines so brightly.

I had a crush on her.

So please mind your words.

I see.

-Let's give him a round of applause. -Oh, my.

What is Choi Chi-yeol saying?

He had a crush on her?

So Ms. Nam didn't throw herself at him.

He was lonely, so…

He's total garbage.

Please give a round of applause to Mr. Choi Chi-yeol…

Hae-e, I made some waffles with ice cream--

-Thanks. -Hey, that's Chi-yeol.

Wow, is this vanilla?

It's so good. Can you make more?

-Okay. -Thanks.

MISSED CALLS

MS. NAM HAENG-SEON: MEET ME IN ROOM TWO AT VERSAILLES

"Room two at Versailles"?

VERSAILLES COIN KARAOKE

Thank goodness.

When I read "room two at Versailles,"

I got all tense.

It sounded like a motel.

How are you joking right now?

That's all I can do.

So why are we here?

To sing?

Are you kidding me?

We can't meet at a cafe, and I don't have a car.

And it's not like I can talk to you on my scooter.

Four, eight, seven, zero, three.

Start.

Why did you do that? Why…

Did you pity me?

Because they were bad-mouthing me?

Is that why you decided to take the fall?

You tutored Hae-e for free.

You halved our rent.

You even took the fall for the scandal.

Why?

Don't tell me you really…

No, right?

That can't be. Why would you like--

I like you.

I couldn't hear you. Can you repeat…

I tried denying it,

and I tried to rationalize it.

But nothing worked.

It's true.

I like you.

Maybe it's just my brain malfunctioning due to being overworked.

Or is it my heart?

Anyway.

Don't worry.

I know I shouldn't have feelings for you.

I'll end it.

I'm the one who found the wrong answer again.

-No, you can't get a full refund. -You can cancel his class online.

-A refund won't be possible. -Yes.

-A teacher's private life -Yes.

-is unrelated to the academy. -I'll check that.

Have you decided to ignore me?

I'd rather you get mad at me.

You're scaring me.

I know.

I've made an irreparable mess that even you can't fix.

But I had no choice.

I was the one at fault, but they were blaming it on her.

So please understand me--

I understand.

It's possible to have someone you want to protect at all costs.

That's why it's even more infuriating. Because I get it.

But that person just had to be--

I know how you feel.

So when will you quit sulking?

Don't drag it out for too long.

I'm sure there's more trouble up ahead.

We trusted Mr. Choi!

But he betrayed our trust!

He abandoned us!

Mr. Choi!

Is your heart burning passionately with forbidden love?

Then we'll burn you too!

KICK CHOI CHI-YEOL OUT FOR FALLING IN LOVE WITH A MARRIED WOMAN

AND ABANDONING HIS STUDENTS!

CHOI CHI-YEOL'S CLASS NOTES

I was so shocked and pulled my kid out of his class right away.

I hear all the parents are demanding refunds.

The offline classes are about to shut down,

and many dropped out of his online classes.

Jeez. He got what he deserved.

How could he fall for his student's mother?

Tell me about it.

And Ms. Nam just ended up becoming the scapegoat.

By the way, shouldn't you apologize to Ms. Nam?

What?

Think about it.

You blamed her for seducing him based on some assumptions

when she never did such a thing.

If I were her, I would've snatched your hair.

Thankfully, she's a softie.

Was that too much?

-Aren't you leaving? -What?

This is a gathering for the moms of the All Care Program.

So what's your plan?

This is quite a flustering situation,

but we have no alternative.

I believe one's ethics and competence should be judged separately.

If we have no other options, then you're right.

But it's a different story if we do.

This is still off the record.

But Director Kang is in contact with Song Jun-ho.

Song Jun-ho from Perfect M?

-He seems to be on the rise lately. -You're right.

He cuts to the chase

and prepares his students solely for the CSAT.

That's great.

And it's always better to have a younger teacher.

They're up to date with the recent CSATs.

-Right. -Right.

Song Jun-ho would be a good replacement, but is this confirmed?

Isn't it a breach of contract?

Director Kang will take care of that.

We just need to deliver our opinion.

Are you really not going to apologize to Ms. Nam?

I want to go buy some side dishes, but I feel a bit uncomfortable.

I told you to leave.

You're not supposed to be here.

How did you know we'd be here? Who told her?

Hey, what are all these radishes doing here?

We still have a week's worth of perilla leaves to sell.

And why the cabbage? We just made geotjeori.

I'm going to make some seokbakji. I'll make some and have the leftovers.

Haeng-seon.

I know you're purposely keeping yourself busy.

But just make up your mind.

It's obvious that you have feelings for him too.

Who wouldn't?

A wealthy and good-looking guy says that he likes you.

So why would you decline? What's there to think about?

I'm sure Hae-e will understand if you explain everything.

But most of all,

he still confessed his love despite thinking you're married.

That means it's genuine.

So stop tormenting yourself and tell him the truth about Hae-e.

He's the only one who needs to know.

Shut it and chop up some radishes.

-Nam Haeng-seon. -He said he'd end it. It's only right.

So drop it.

That's because he thinks you're married.

We're too different!

Like you said, he's wealthy.

And look at what happened.

One scandal and our shop is barren.

It's just too much. I don't need to tell him anything.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello, Ms. Lee.

I'm sorry, Ms. Nam.

I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions and stopped coming here.

So…

What's today's special? Dan-ji has been craving your braised tofu.

I see. Of course, we have some.

-Take over. -Go.

NATION'S BEST BANCHAN

-Hello! -Hello!

Hello.

-It's been a long time. -Seriously.

This place is so good.

I've been craving japchae.

-Hey! -Hey!

-Come on. -Wait up.

Lee Hui-jae.

You've been in there for days. What's going on?

You should at least eat.

FOR MATH, CHOI CHI-YEOL

THE CSAT MIRACLE BY CHOI CHI-YEOL D-30 KICK-OFF

You know what?

I thought I had seen everything

in over 20 years of working in this business.

But this…

It's been an absolute nightmare to deal with.

I've never seen this many refund requests before.

What's with your taste in women?

Plenty of decent single women would line up to date you!

My heart breaks…

First,

take a two-week break.

At least pretend to be sorry.

Sure.

-I'll record videos for the makeup class-- -Forget it.

Who'd take the makeup classes in this situation?

I'll find a way to deal with all of this.

So rest up and recharge yourself.

You've been working like a dog until now.

Okay, I'll do that.

I'll also compensate the academy for all damages.

Don't feel too hurt, okay?

I do support you.

You can't control how you feel about someone,

and such a forbidden love tends to be so alluring…

What did Song Jun-ho say?

When's the meeting?

Okay.

Make sure Chi-yeol doesn't find out about this before everything's set.

And have you been able to reach Mr. Jin yet?

God, that bastard.

Why is he being a headache on top of all this?

This is great.

One causes a mess, and another goes missing.

Darn it.

What should we have?

How about kimchi stew?

Sure.

What is it, Lulu?

What are you barking at?

What? What's that?

What is it?

GANGHYEON POLICE STATION

The body was found in Incheon, but they gave us jurisdiction.

How come?

It seems the body was abandoned and floated down there.

Upon identification, it turns out he was from this area.

He was a teacher

at The Pride Academy.

EVIDENCE 2, EVIDENCE 3

We need an autopsy to be sure.

But for now, they don't think he drowned.

If you look at the picture,

it's evident that he was hit in the forehead with a blunt object.

Don't touch that. Just look at it.

This.

-What is this? -A metal ball. Odd, right?

It was found in his pocket.

We're going to run a fingerprint and DNA test.

Isn't this…

a dying message?

Right?

DYING MESSAGE: A MURDER VICTIM'S LAST MESSAGE

I was so shocked after watching that video.

Has Choi Chi-yeol gone insane?

Solving all those math questions must've gotten to him.

Your dad doesn't know, does he?

I heard he offered to tutor you first.

Hold on.

Do you think he used you as an excuse to approach your mom?

It's not like that.

Don't be ridiculous. He's total garbage.

Hey.

She said it's not like that. You should believe your friend.

And can't you see that I'm finally studying?

Please be quiet.

Fine. You can study, Geon-hu.

Bye.

Bye.

I'd be struggling too

if my mom had a scandal.

Well…

It's not common, you know?

And having such a handsome guy sitting next to you

must make it hard to study, right?

You know what?

You're really not normal.

Yes. I agree with you.

Jeez.

I can't get used to this sudden influx of customers.

We're already refilling the food.

I think we could sell out of everything by the end of today.

You're right.

Chi-yeol, why is your phone off all day?

Call me when you get this.

Jeez.

What's wrong?

Don't call him. You shouldn't.

-Why not? -Because…

No reason. Just listen to me.

No. He and I are close too.

He said I could call him whenever I want, so I'll do just that.

Why are you doing this? Give me back my phone!

Promise me you won't call him, and I'll give it back.

No.

A promise is made when two sides agree.

But I don't agree with you.

That's why I can't promise.

Explain why I shouldn't--

You must promise. It's all for his sake.

I have my reasons for doing this.

Please don't call him, Jae-woo.

Okay, I won't.

I won't call him.

Give it back to me.

I won't call him.

I just can't understand you.

Do you really dislike him, or are you forcing yourself to?

TODAY'S SPECIAL ROLLED OMELET WITH POLLOCK ROE

Hey.

Gosh.

You're home early.

Yes, we didn't have CEA today.

CEA…

I don't know what that is.

There's still so much I have to learn.

Go home.

I've set out some hardboiled eggs and sikhye on the table.

Also, can you do the laundry for me? I forgot.

By the way… Auntie.

Do you like Mr. Choi too?

No--

It's not what you think.

He just said that to protect me…

Anyway, don't worry and just focus on your studies. Okay?

Okay. I'm going home.

Get your head on straight.

Just focus on Hae-e for now.

Focus.

Uncle, are you upset?

Yes, I'm mad at Haeng-seon.

I'm worried about Chi-yeol, but she won't let me call him.

Chi-yeol and I are close.

She's being a dictator.

She's ugly.

It's so green.

We all crave a cup of tea after lunch.

This cafe, located in Yeouido, has a menu of…

What am I doing?

I have no one to meet.

Hey.

Why would a rich guy like you have cup noodles?

No, I'm filthy rich.

Still bragging, aren't you?

Then treat me to a meal since you're filthy rich.

How about

we grab a drink instead?

-Table 13. -Enjoy.

Can we have more of this?

Hey.

Let me ask you one question.

It better be just one.

Did you…

really not know the truth about the incident 12 years ago?

No, I didn't.

I really didn't.

I had no idea.

What an idiot.

I am.

I really am.

Even to this day…

I'm still an idiot.

But everyone

calls me the star teacher.

The Trillion Won Man.

How hilarious.

Hey.

Let's drink together.

You're an idiot,

and I'm your even more idiotic friend that hates you.

Bottoms up.

You're wrong, you idiot.

I had a higher GPA than you.

I got a 4.3. Don't make me laugh.

For one semester, you idiot.

It was only for a single semester.

Jeez, no wonder you became a teacher.

That's right. I'm a teacher.

"I'm a teacher, and you're a…"

What are you?

I'm just a tormented guy.

Tormented?

Hey, do you think I've never struggled in life?

You have no idea how well I fill out official documents.

-I'll show you. -Why would you show me that?

Hey, take a look at how good I am.

I'm so good at filling out official documents

that the vice principal always makes me do it.

But you…

Why don't I get paid as much as you do when I have to do all this?

I don't make you fill them out.

I…

love my students.

I bet you don't feel the same way. You don't know what love is.

No, I don't.

I don't know.

Hey, that's enough.

I have work tomorrow.

I don't.

-Can we have one more bottle of soju? -Sure.

-No, make that two. -Okay.

Wait…

But I'm drunk.

I shouldn't drink more, you idiot.

I'm not even a little bit drunk.

I wish I were.

But I'm not.

Cripes.

I miss her.

Cripes.

Hey, Chi-yeol.

He's long gone.

I don't even know where he lives.

Come on.

Haeng-seon.

It's Chi-yeol. What do I do?

Should I pick up?

You only said not to call him, so I'm going to pick up.

I'm picking up.

Hi, Chi-yeol.

Hello, I'm Chi-yeol's friend.

Do you know where his house is?

Chi-yeol's house?

Chi-yeol's house?

Haeng-seon, I'm in front of his house.

It's okay. I can carry him.

Okay, Haeng-seon.

Chi-yeol--

Chi-yeol, what is your passcode?

What is your passcode?

Zero, two, seven, two, four.

Why…

Why did he drink so much?

He's burning up.

You're in my dreams again.

Let me be with you just this once.

Gosh.

What was that dream?

How will I get over her?

Cripes.

Darn it.

Darn it.

How was the seokbakji from last time? Was it all right?

It was so tasty.

My husband was asking for some yesterday as well.

I'll make it again. I hear fall radish is good for you.

-Okay. -Goodbye.

-Thank you. -Goodbye!

-Goodbye! -Thank you!

Goodness, Mr. Ji, it's been a long time.

-Hello. -You never stopped by even once.

I was wondering if you could reach Mr. Choi.

Well…

The last time we talked was last week.

Can you not reach him?

No. His phone's turned off, and he's not home.

So I wondered if he called you.

Okay. Goodbye then.

Goodbye.

If you ever get in touch with him, please tell him to call me.

Thank you.

Sure.

Hey, what's going on?

Mr. Choi has gone off the radar?

He's even ghosted Mr. Ji?

This isn't braised pollack.

-Goodness. -Yes, we do!

-Gosh. -Here you go.

-Thank you. -I'm sorry.

I guess there was only one.

Jae-woo.

You can go home. I think we'll close soon.

ADVERTISEMENT STAR PLUS, 20% COUPON…

Beef, stir-fried eggs,

and braised pollock.

Jeez, I'm so exhausted.

Drink this and come to your senses.

What do you mean? I'm fine.

Don't lie.

You've been out of it ever since Mr. Ji stopped by.

Don't worry.

He's a grown man.

I'm sure he's out to get some fresh air.

He's been pushed to the brink.

He's softer than he seems.

You say you're not interested in him, yet you're worried sick.

Will you still deny it?

Yeong-ju.

I need to go somewhere. I'm sorry.

-Please wrap up without me. -Where are you going?

Where are you going?

Sir, can you take me to Gimpo?

I only drive within Seoul.

I'll double the pay.

Please.

Thank you.

Mr. Choi!

Mr. Choi Chi-yeol!

Why are you here?

"Why"?

"Why"?

I'd like to ask you the same question.

You should've told those around you if you were going somewhere.

You're not a rebellious teenager anymore!

Why would you worry me like that?

You deliberately confused me.

If you were going to get over me, you should've done so quietly.

Why did you have to make me go crazy?

What I'm trying to say is that I was worried about you.

Why?

Did you think I'd kill myself because of you?

No, it's not that.

-To be honest-- -It seems you don't know me very well.

I'm incredibly narcissistic.

Treat me to a meal.

I haven't eaten anything, and I'm starving.

SU-JA'S CHUEOTANG

You said you were starving. Why come all the way here?

Are you not eating?

I'm okay.

Do you remember when I told you

about my savior back when we were camping?

She used to run this place.

Seon's Cafeteria.

Does that mean--

I lived in this area while studying to become a teacher.

And your mother fed me countless times.

I could only have one meal a day, and it was at this place.

She was always so generous to me.

I think she mentioned you several times.

She said you were poor but studied hard for the exam.

You were like a son to her, so she wanted to take care of you.

How could this be…

I was surprised too when we came here last time.

I couldn't believe this coincidence.

I came to visit her after becoming a teacher at the academy.

But the sign had changed.

I wanted to show her how successful I'd become.

I owe so much to her.

SU-JA'S CHUEOTANG

And I've finally come to a conclusion.

What?

I thought long and hard.

And I think…

I was just confused.

My gratitude towards your mother,

and how big of a coincidence this is.

Because it felt so special to me,

perhaps…

I mistook that as feelings for you.

Or maybe I went momentarily crazy due to boredom.

But I've come to my senses…

after seeing your face.

I should go back to where I belong.

You should go in.

And…

I'm sorry for worrying you.

By the way,

I'll pay the full rent from now on. Let me do that.

That's okay. I halved everyone else's anyway.

Take care.

Good luck with your business too.

Thank you.

Haeng-seon.

What's going on? Where have you been?

Answer me.

Did you go looking for Mr. Choi?

So? Did you find him?

Answer me, will you?

Cat got your tongue?

Yeong-ju, Mr. Choi said…

that he got over me.

He said he was just confused.

It all worked out for the best, but my heart is ripped into shreds.

I must've liked him.

I must've liked him a lot, Yeong-ju.

NATION'S BEST BANCHAN

Mom, I'm off to school.

-Hae-e, have some of this. -What?

-Today is the math performance assessment. -I need to go and read this--

Okay, but you need some carbs to fuel your brain.

Right, and take one of these.

It's a must-have for test takers.

Squeeze it.

Well done.

-Happy? I'm leaving now. -Okay.

-Good luck! -Okay.

-You can do it! -Thanks.

Good morning.

Did you all get some good rest?

Where's everyone else?

Did you not tell them to show up for work today?

I did.

But they must've looked for other jobs while you were gone.

They apologized for leaving so abruptly.

Hyo-won too?

Yes.

I'd just managed to memorize their names.

That's okay. We're just colleagues, not family.

You, top student at your med school.

Yeon-gyeong.

Yeon-gyeong.

Do-jin, the bread lover.

-No, Do-jun-- -Seo-jin. It's Hyeon Seo-jin.

-Seo-jin. -Yes.

Yeon-gyeong and Seo-jin. Okay, I won't forget your names.

Yeon-gyeong, print out the test material.

-Seo-jin, print out the Q and A list. -Okay.

The CSAT repeater class is at ten?

Yes, you have about 30 minutes.

No way, I'm so touched.

I'm no longer just "kid."

Taking some time off must have changed him.

He feels more human.

This feels so strange.

I'm nervous after taking two weeks off.

Just be yourself.

"Pride maketh math. For math, Choi Chi-yeol."

We've spent years together, but you still haven't mastered it.

Pride maketh math.

For math, Choi Chi-yeol.

SONG JUN-HO SPECIAL MATH

Oh, no! I'm sorry.

I totally forgot to call you, Mr. Ji.

We switched your classroom.

I'm sorry.

It's nice to meet you in person.

Hello, I'm Song Jun-ho.

I see.

THE PRIDE ACADEMY

This is nice and cozy.

The microphone isn't set up.

The teachers don't use a microphone here since it's a small classroom.

But if you want, I'll set it up for you next week.

Do you think you could just speak a bit louder for today?

-Okay. I'll do that. -Thank you.

Does this mean you guys are the loyal ones?

I'm close enough to see your pores. How nice.

I might even memorize all your names.

Let's begin.

You reviewed trigonometric functions for the past two weeks.

Now, we will learn about sequences.

-Hello, sir. -Hey.

-Did you find anything? -No, nothing definite yet.

We need to look around more.

Can I retrieve the evidence now?

Yes.

METAL BALL CASE BODY FOUND ON OCTOBER 11, 7:45 P.M.

LEE YOUNG-MIN FELL FROM THE PRIDE ACADEMY BUILDING

-Sir. -Yes?

We retrieved the victim's call records.

-Really? -Based on his time of death,

he must've been killed near his house or around that area

before being tossed into the river.

Let's wait for the results.

First, check the CCTV cameras in his building and around that area.

Remember the guy from the convenience store

during Lee Young-min's case?

Hey!

Didn't I tell you to keep Lee Young-min's case out of this?

-Hello, sir. -Hello, sir.

Do you think I'm a joke?

Just look into Jin I-sang's case and don't connect it to that one!

Just because they're both from The Pride doesn't mean this is a serial murder.

It doesn't mean it's not.

Metal balls were found at both crime scenes.

This time, it was in the victim's pocket.

We've requested a warrant.

We're going to bring as many men as possible

to look around Saeam Vista, the assumed crime scene.

That's all.

Why, that little…

Darn it.

I really didn't want things to go this far either.

But you know very well how extreme these moms can be.

They don't want a teacher with moral issues teaching their kids.

They were blowing up our phones.

So what choice did I have?

Students were dropping out, and the parents were demanding a solution.

So I urgently reached out to Song Jun-ho.

Our vice director is a close friend of a college alumnus of his.

Yes, I understand.

Right? You do, right?

Exactly. I knew you'd understand.

However,

I don't see the need for both him and me to work here.

I'm afraid I'll have to resign from The Pride.

Look. You don't have to be so extreme.

Let's take some time and think--

Thank you for everything.

But…

It's such a pity for us to part ways like this.

Jeez, my heart is breaking.

DIRECTOR'S OFFICE

Hello.

It's been a long time.

What brings you here?

Well…

We keep finding reasons to come back here.

Goodbye then.

Goodbye.

Is he an assistant?

He looks familiar.

Good work.

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.

Hey, Hae-e.

What was this test?

I didn't even get the questions.

I read each question ten times, but I still couldn't understand.

Our school always gives hard free-response questions for math.

This test isn't as important as the midterms,

so just focus on redeeming yourself then.

Hae-e.

Why was the assessment so hard this time? I'm done for.

Hey, did you get 14 for the last question?

-What? -Can I see?

-I got 14 too. -Hey, don't cross-check.

You have no manners. I couldn't even begin solving it.

Dan-ji.

Forget about them.

Let's drink this.

Nothing like something tasty when you're stressed.

Hey, you better not cross-check.

Or I'll chew you guys up like this coconut jelly.

Fine, I won't.

Fine.

No way. This is shocking.

My mom sent me a link.

They removed Mr. Choi's photo from The Pride's website.

He must've gotten sacked.

Are you sure? Maybe he's on another page.

No, I think they just kicked him out.

But then again, he DOOG.

DOOG: DIG ONE'S OWN GRAVE

But this is harsh, right?

NATION'S BEST BANCHAN

Hey, Hae-e.

-Mr. Choi. -I…

I was just passing by

and remembered I had to send an urgent email.

I'll get going then. Good luck with your midterms.

Okay.

Mom.

When did you get here?

I came outside to get some sunlight since the weather was so nice.

Staying indoors all the time has made me lack vitamin C.

Vitamin D.

Big difference.

Anyway, care to come inside? I made some japchae.

That's okay. I'll just go home.

All right. Go rest up.

The weather is lovely today.

-Bye! -Bye.

LAWYER JANG SEO-JIN

Sun-jae goes to The Pride, right?

Why the sudden interest?

I'm a parent too.

I may not be as extreme as you, but I'm not uninterested in him.

Why are you here?

I was at the police station with my client to get the plaintiff's statement

and overheard some officers talking.

One of their teachers was killed.

A student fell to his death recently too.

Are you sure about that academy?

Is it safe?

Who was the teacher?

I don't know. I didn't get the name.

They were mentioning a metal ball serial murder or something.

On my way here, I saw officers patrolling Saeam Vista.

That must be where the teacher lived.

SAEAM VISTA

What are you up to, Hui-jae?

Why are you here?

Look into it and switch academies if need be.

How will he focus there?

HUI-JAE

Your call cannot be completed…

Stop staring. You'll bore a hole right through me.

I wasn't looking at you.

I was looking outside to check the weather.

The weather is lovely.

Should we have burgers later?

I'm down.

I want a cheeseburger with extra cheese, no pickles or mayo.

Sure.

Or how about some jajangmyeon? Let's order some.

I'm craving some.

I'm down. I want fried rice with no carrots or peas.

Sure. I'm fine with anything.

Jae-woo.

Call Hae-e and ask what she wants.

Okay, hold on. I'm watching something.

You've been on your phone all day.

Do you want to die? Hurry up.

-You bastard. -That little…

Mr. Popular! Haeng-seon.

He's on his way to see Chi-yeol.

MR. POPULAR WILL MEET THE ADULTERER, CHOI CHI-YEOL

Welcome to Mr. Popular's World.

I, Mr. Popular, was the first to reveal his love interest

and played a big role in revealing the truth.

Today, I will finally meet the star adulterer, Choi Chi-yeol,

and hear his thoughts.

Let's find out how he feels about his great fall from his peak

and see if he's still in love with that married woman.

Where could he be? Beats me.

Where could he be? Right here.

"For math, Choi Chi-yeol."

This is his math academy building.

Let's go inside.

Welcome to Mr. Popular's World. Let's get it.

Let's deliver the test materials to the students before I quit.

I'll get their email addresses and reach out to them.

Mr. Choi, it's nice to meet you in person.

You're so handsome.

Who are you?

I'm Mr. Popular, delivering hot news faster than anyone.

Welcome to Mr. Popular's World.

WHO'S THAT GUY? IT'S MR. JI!

Mr. Popular?

Guys, Mr. Choi knows me.

That'll be enough. Thank you.

Is it true that you no longer work at The Pride?

How does it feel to hit rock bottom?

Just leave!

You can't seem to answer me. Then next question.

How do you feel about her now? Are you still in love?

How do you feel about being the center of a cheating scandal?

It's not a scandal!

What?

I KNOW HER! WHAT?

WHO IS SHE? FROM WOORIM HIGH!

WOW SHE'S PRETTY

SHE'S MY TYPE ANYONE HAVE HER NUMBER?

It's not a scandal.

Hae-e.

It's Hae-e.

Haeng-seon, it's Hae-e.

Why is she there?

She went to see Mr. Choi?

Because my mom…

isn't actually

my mom.

She's my aunt, and she's single.

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN? NO WAY

So this isn't a scandal.

It's just a romance.

WHAT DID SHE SAY? SERIOUSLY?

ROMANCE? SHE SAID ROMANCE!

EPILOGUE

Mr. Choi is sick?

Exactly how is he sick?

I don't know, but his face is red and hot.

He's burning up. What should I do?

You're in my dreams again.

Let me be with you just this once.

At least in my dreams.

CRASH COURSE IN ROMANCE

This is such a huge mess.

You like her too.

-Right? -Nam Hae-e.

Express your feelings to the man you like.

And go on dates.

I guess I was the only one who missed you.

What about you? When did you start having feelings for me?

The police are investigating the case to find the killer.

Why on earth were you there?

Hui-jae! What's wrong?

The police think he was murdered.

Why do these incidents keep occurring?
