LOVE YOUR ENEMY

THE CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, INCIDENTS,
AND PLACES IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTIONAL

It's dangerous over there. Come here.

Oh, Ms. Yun!

Ms. Yun. Try to relax.

Ms. Yun. Try to relax.

Ms. Yun.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

EPISODE 4

Are you okay?

Why did you do that?

I tripped as well.

You tripped?

You dove in a perfect arc,
just like a dolphin.

You dove in a perfect arc,
just like a dolphin.

I saw it with my own eyes.

You must be mistaken.

Anyway, let me reiterate once again.

If someone falls in the water, no matter
how strong the urge to rescue them,

If someone falls in the water, no matter
how strong the urge to rescue them,

you must never just jump straight in.

Look around for something
to throw that they can grab.

Otherwise wait until--

Until they get weak and then rescue them.

Until they get weak and then rescue them.

Okay?

You're just lucky the water wasn't deep.

He knew it wasn't deep.

I told you I tripped.

Anyhow, I'm sorry, Mr. Gong.

Anyhow, I'm sorry, Mr. Gong.

I must have given you quite a shock.

2024 VICE-PRINCIPAL'S MEETING

Here's your credit card.

Thanks for that.

Thanks for that.

-But--
-Don't mention it.

All I did was get plenty of fresh fruit.

Just as you asked me.

I see.

I see.

You can leave now.

Okay.

Where did you get that fruit?

These are the fruits of Ms. Yun's madness.

These are the fruits of Ms. Yun's madness.

Sorry?

Dig in. There's apple mango.

I'll help myself.

I don't think I've ever done anything,
so why are you putting up walls?

I don't think I've ever done anything,
so why are you putting up walls?

It's intriguing.

What walls? It's just…

Because I'm annoying
and make you feel uncomfortable,

it's a signal I should leave?

it's a signal I should leave?

You're taking it too seriously.

I'll be on my way.

No, wait.

I didn't say that
with the intention of making you leave.

I didn't say that
with the intention of making you leave.

Then it's okay to stay?

Mr. Hong, you're a terrible liar.

How does someone as naive as you
survive in this dog-eat-dog world?

How does someone as naive as you
survive in this dog-eat-dog world?

You can have it all.

Oh, Haesu.

What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?

I have a bit of a headache.

The school nurse is inside. You can go in.

Oh, there's fruit as well, so have some.

Oh, there's fruit as well, so have some.

See you later.

Hello.

Hello.

Address me properly next time.

Ms. Yun's going to take charge of it?

But yesterday you said you were going to
delegate it to an external subcontractor.

But yesterday you said you were going to
delegate it to an external subcontractor.

You were insistent
that I didn't get the teachers involved.

That's what I was thinking,

but Ms. Yun

personally requested to take charge
of planning my inauguration ceremony,

personally requested to take charge
of planning my inauguration ceremony,

so I changed my mind.

So I did.

So that's how things are.

So that's how things are.

Then Ms. Yun and I
will take care of everything.

You don't need to worry about a thing.

No.

Everyone's putting in so much effort,
so I don't want to seem too hands-off.

Everyone's putting in so much effort,
so I don't want to seem too hands-off.

I'd like regular progress reports.

On everything. Directly from Ms. Yun.

Oh, Mr. Chairman…

Oh, Mr. Chairman…

Understood.

Then

I thank you in advance.

I'll go back to class.

Good luck with your inauguration.

Right, Mr. Ji.

Let's make this great!

BUDGET

BUDGET

Are you still doing everything yourself?

Tell them you can't.

Why are you in charge
of that guy's inauguration?

I said I would, so I can't hand it off.

I said I would, so I can't hand it off.

Why did you do that?

I don't know! I really have no idea.

INAUGURATION CEREMONY PLAN

What do you think about my plan?

What do you think about my plan?

Mr. Gong.

How are you going to get
NewJeans to appear?

Well, the chairman's company
is rolling in money.

Well, the chairman's company
is rolling in money.

I've told you several times already.
You don't need to get involved.

You've got your plate full as it is.

But we're a team.
I can't just stand idly by.

I told you.
I'm a teacher, you're a trainee teacher.

I told you.
I'm a teacher, you're a trainee teacher.

We are not a team.

That's so cute.

Spouting nonsense while being ignorant
of the ways of the world. Just my type.

-Pardon me?
-You've gained another type?

Hey, I've given up on the chairman.

I've dated unemployed guys
and even a mama's boy.

But dating my BFF's crush
doesn't get my juices going.

-Hey!
-My bad. Not a crush, a crash.

-Hey!
-My bad. Not a crush, a crash.

Here.

You have it.

DOKMOK HIGH
CHAIRMAN'S INAUGURATION PLAN

Are you memorizing it?

It's so dull, I almost fell asleep.

Shall I give you some time
in the middle to do a talent show?

Shall I give you some time
in the middle to do a talent show?

Would you like to sing a song?

Is that what you'd like to see?

I'd rather poke my eyes out.

When it comes to an inauguration ceremony,
it doesn't have to be special.

However, a slew of congratulatory speeches

one after the other
is really not my style.

one after the other
is really not my style.

Do it again.

It's too long.

Do it again.

VERSION TWO - REJECTED

The flower arrangements are weird.
Do it again.

The flower arrangements are weird.
Do it again.

VERSION THREE

REJECTED

VERSION FOUR

The path is too complicated.

Do it again!

Do it again!

VERSION SEVEN

REJECTED

The gifted program
application results are out.

-Oh, I made it.
-Am I on the list?

-Oh, I made it.
-Am I on the list?

I'm on the list.

SUCCESSFUL APPLICANTS
TO THE EUREKA GIFTED PROGRAM

EUREKA GIFTED PROGRAM

Oh, Yumi.

Ms. Yun. I didn't get in--

Ms. Yun. I didn't get in--

Ms. Yun!

We've got a big problem.
You need to get to the chairman's office.

We've got a big problem.
You need to get to the chairman's office.

Why? What's going on?

I'll explain on the way.
I'm sorry, Yumi. Let's pick this up later.

-We need to go quickly.
-I'll see you later, Yumi.

You were kidding?

Here, drink this.

Take a rest while you drink this.

Mr. Gong.

Mr. Gong.

School life is weird.

The people who are busy are always busy.

And the people who are free
are always free.

What's that all about?

That's the way the world turns.
It's unfair and irrational.

And nice people suffer the consequences?

I'm not nice. It's just a pain.

I'm not nice. It's just a pain.

Arguing, complaining, correcting.
I hate that kind of thing.

I'm not nice, I'm just a coward.

Teachers shouldn't be like that, right?

Then, let's say you're fundamentally nice
with a dash of cowardice.

Thank you.

For the cola.
I'm saying thanks for the cola.

I see.

It's my favorite.

Anyhow, don't lie like that in the future.

If you get caught,
you're the only one who will suffer.

Since the inauguration
will be held in the gym,

he wants to check it out, is that right?

He claims to hate inaugurations,
but I'm beginning to think the opposite.

He claims to hate inaugurations,
but I'm beginning to think the opposite.

-Detestable jerk.
-And right before dinner too.

Oh, you can leave for the day
and go home for dinner.

-But we're a--
-We're not a team.

Stop chatting and get a move on.

Okay.

What is it now?

I've lost my appetite and I'm dumb.

I've lost my appetite and I'm dumb.

What are you talking about?

Moaning about the gifted program again?

How was it?
Did you get lots of study tips?

How was it?
Did you get lots of study tips?

It was just the first day.

You suck, so I won't ask you to share.

Don't be like that.
How could you say I suck?

Will you tell me then?

Will you tell me then?

-Nope. We're not allowed to leak them.
-You're supposed to be my friend.

Don't you feel sorry for me
for not getting in?

If it were me, I'd feel sorry for you,

If it were me, I'd feel sorry for you,

and I'd tell you something
even if I couldn't tell you everything.

Stop whining.

It's not my fault you didn't get in,
nor is it Ms. Yun’s or your mom’s.

That's just the limit of your ability.

That's just the limit of your ability.

Tell me something I don't know.

Tell me something I don't know.

But did you have to put it like that?

Otherwise, you'll never let it go.

How much do you think I complain to you?

Where are you going?
I don't want to fight.

Haesu, if you say things like that
to someone's face,

it's normal to fight.

Maybe not for someone like you,
who's smart and rational.

Maybe not for someone like you,
who's smart and rational.

Let go of me.

Watch out!

Hey, Haesu, are you okay?

Hey, Haesu, are you okay?

Hey!

Hey!

Are you okay?

Yes.

What's wrong with her? Hey!

Why are you always kicking
that ball at people?

What the heck? It wasn't me.

What the heck? It wasn't me.

Someone else kicked it.
I just came over 'cause she's a classmate.

Man, that little…

You should check your facts
before having a go at him.

-He should have spoken up sooner.
-Did she give him a chance to explain?

-He should have spoken up sooner.
-Did she give him a chance to explain?

Right.

-Go and make her apologize to you.
-Yes, sir.

Hey!

Mr. Chairman.

Mr. Chairman.

Giseok, clear up the misunderstanding.
Don't make things worse.

Okay, Ms. Yun.

-Make sure you sort it out.
-Okay.

-Make sure you sort it out.
-Okay.

Wow, that was some catch.

She has great reactions.

She’d be better off on the soccer team
than as class president.

She’d be better off on the soccer team
than as class president.

Hey, Haesu! Wait up!

-Is there a leak?
-Yes.

The ceiling looks absolutely fine.

If you're worried about your inauguration,
I can set up a tarp.

I'm sorry, but would you mind
bringing me a ladder?

Sure.

Mr. Kim will…

Never mind. I'll just--

Ms. Yun, if you have to do
everything yourself,

there is no need for me to be here.

Be back in a jiffy.

I can manage by myself.

It's my pleasure to help you.

But can we slow down a bit?

I'm worried they'll be arguing.

Arguing?

Arguing?

If left alone,
those two always end up arguing.

Still, let's slow down a bit.

-Shall we go a bit faster?
-What?

Haesu couldn't help
but get the wrong idea.

Have you ever been hit by a ball?

The pain is of secondary importance.
You just feel humiliated.

I'm just saying that kid didn't kick it.

I'm just saying that kid didn't kick it.

If he clears up the misunderstanding,
that should be the end of it.

Why tell him to seek out an apology?

You might as well have told him
to get his revenge.

It did cross my mind.

It did cross my mind.

She smacked him
without giving him a chance to explain.

It's obvious it was her fault.

If someone wrongs you,
it's okay to seek revenge?

If you can.

I see.

What I'm trying to say--

Right, the ladder is here.

I'm here too.

I'm here too.

Shall we tidy up a bit?

Yes, let's do that.

I'm fine.

Wow, so cold.

If this were a drama,
the guy would fall all of a sudden.

If this were a drama,
the guy would fall all of a sudden.

And even though the girl had
enough time to get out of the way,

she'd hesitate,
and they'd end up falling in a heap.

And then in slow motion,
their eyes would meet.

And then in slow motion,
their eyes would meet.

And from that day on,
they would start caring for each other.

I won't fall.

Do you know how many stories
the building I constructed in Dubai has?

Maybe 161 floors.

Huh? How did you know that?

I looked it up.
Although that's all in the past now.

Anyhow, I've worked in construction
for years and years.

Anyhow, I've worked in construction
for years and years.

I won't fall off a pesky ladder like this.

Even if it shakes,
my legs are like tree trunks.

So I can stop it like…

Anyone would think
you'd climbed 161 floors by ladder.

Anyone would think
you'd climbed 161 floors by ladder.

If you're going to keep talking nonsense,
just go.

I'm just saying…

In any case, drama writers
should take a good look at themselves.

In any case, drama writers
should take a good look at themselves.

That's not even realistic.
She would just move out of the way.

Moreover, if a person fell
on someone else, they'd be hurt.

They wouldn't lock eyes,
they'd break bones!

I'm not the one who wrote it.

I'm not the one who wrote it.

Why do you always wait
for the bell to ring?

Sorry!

Sorry!

Sorry!

-Hey, catch!
-I'm sorry.

-Whoa, amazing!
-What's going on?

Did you get a picture?

Are they going to kiss?

Get off me!

Get off me!

What?

Clear this away.

Your eyes met for sure.

Good night, everyone.
I'm going to head home.

Dear me.

It's late. Why don't you come
to my house for dinner?

It's late. Why don't you come
to my house for dinner?

Oh! In the school housing?

Great! I'd love to.

-What about you, Sua?
-I have plans.

That's such a shame, isn't it, Mr. Gong?

Will Mr. Chairman be joining…

-That would be nice--
-He should be getting home.

But I'm very busy,
so I'll have to decline.

But I'm very busy,
so I'll have to decline.

Get home safely.

Let's go.

See you tomorrow.

-Yes.
-Good night.

STAY AWAY, MS. YUN

It's not nice to make fun of us old folks.

I'm being honest.

When I first saw you, you looked so young,
I almost called you brother.

Brother?

Can you believe this guy?

Try this.

Try this.

Okay.

This tastes exactly like
your grandma used to make.

You're just so happy to hear the word
"brother" that you've lost

your sense of taste.

Try it. Just have a taste.

Try it. Just have a taste.

Okay.

What the heck? What did you put in it?
This tastes amazing.

What the heck? What did you put in it?
This tastes amazing.

The important thing is not what,
but how much.

Let's dig in.

My little brother must be hungry.

-You first, Brother.
-Eat, eat.

-You first, Brother.
-Eat, eat.

-Bon appétit.
-Bon appétit.

Cheers.

No, Grandpa!
If Mr. Gong has even one glass…

Didn't you say you pass out
after just one drink?

Normally I do, but…

Normally I do, but…

-Makgeolli--
-What did I tell you?

Makgeolli is different.

It really is.

-Have another cup.
-Thank you.

Who are you?

Hey, what time is it?

My last bus!

My last bus!

You didn't need to accompany me.

You made the bus thanks to my shortcut.

It's better than going via the main gate.

But it's very dark.
When you go back home, you'd better…

But it's very dark.
When you go back home, you'd better…

Don't worry about me.

You live so far away.
Isn't it tiring traveling to work?

It is a bit.

I keep falling asleep on the bus
and missing my stop.

I keep falling asleep on the bus
and missing my stop.

Then from now on,
don't bother staying late.

Still, even though it's hard work,
I like it. I'm having fun.

Really? Why?

Really? Why?

They say if you like something
that's hard work, then you really like it.

I like working at our school.

If you like something that's hard work,
you really like it.

I've heard that somewhere before.

Where was it?

My bus is here.

My bus is here.

-Get home safely.
-Will do.

You be safe too.

The roof.

I'm sorry. I need to get off.

Right?

You knew as soon as you saw me.

Why didn't you say anything?

I thought you might not want to remember.

I thought you might not want to remember.

It's not like that.

I didn't have eyes for anything back then.

I didn't recognize you.

I didn't recognize you.

I think you need glasses.

Didn't you say
you used to have good eyesight?

Didn't you say
you used to have good eyesight?

Yes.

And your hair suddenly started going gray.

That would be
because of the mental stress.

That would be
because of the mental stress.

Your eyesight has deteriorated a lot.
It must be giving you a lot of discomfort.

Glasses, as I just mentioned…

Let me refer you to a psychiatrist.

What are you struggling with most?

Well…

three months ago

I graduated from college
and started working.

I graduated from college
and started working.

I was really happy.

It was my dream job.

I see. So what happened?

I see. So what happened?

One of my co-workers

was sexually assaulted by the CEO.

I thought it was right to take a stand.

Like a fool,
I believed that was the right thing to do.

So we made it public…

but then my co-worker
changed her statement.

She denied it ever happened.

And then she transferred to the US office.

Meanwhile, I was fired.

Meanwhile, I was fired.

The CEO sued me for slander.

All that happened a month ago.

All that happened a month ago.

You must have felt betrayed and angry.

There's more.

Ten days ago…

both my parents

were killed in an accident.

And at the funeral, it came out

that my father had embezzled from his job
and my grandfather's foundation,

and it was all over the news.

and it was all over the news.

Which of these
should I be struggling with most?

Which of these
should I be struggling with most?

I really don't know.

First of all, let me prescribe you
some medicine.

Tonight, we bring you shocking news
about the Korean swimmer,

Gong Munsu, who is nicknamed
the Korean dolphin.

After winning both Olympic
and Asian Games gold medals,

It's already started. Here.

This is such a great watch.

ROOFTOP GARDEN NOW OPEN

Grandma.

Hey, Grandma!

I'm not a grandma.

I'm sorry, I could only see your hair.

I'm sorry, I could only see your hair.

Shall I help you?

I've imagined this moment so many times.

But it's much more…

But it's much more…

It's much more…

Terrifying.

Then,

let's talk for a bit.

And when we calm down, then…

What should we talk about?

What should we talk about?

Any…

Anything.

Anything.

What should we talk about now?

What do you like?

Cola, pork cutlet…

Tteokbokki.

Oh, things like that.

What about you?

The thing that I like, that I fear,

and that I find difficult is
the exact same thing.

Why do you like it
if it's hard and you fear it?

Why do you like it
if it's hard and you fear it?

It's incredibly hard…

but I love it with all my heart.

That's what makes it real.

That means I really like it.

I really like swimming.

Or I did.

I can't do it anymore.

I have something similar.

Something I like and hate.

A jerk I miss
but also can't stand the sight of.

A jerk I miss
but also can't stand the sight of.

I think we've run out of things to say.
Right?

Then, on the count of three?

Then, on the count of three?

Okay.

W-Wait a moment.

W-Wait a moment.

Let me just drink this.

How old are you?

How old are you?

No.

You counted to three,

and then grabbed me
by the nape of my neck.

and then grabbed me
by the nape of my neck.

No.

I drank that beer and passed out.

And you grabbed the nape of my neck
and we fell backwards.

-Me?
-Yes.

No. I was in no state of mind to do that.

That's how it happened.

Just before I passed out,
you clearly grabbed me like this.

Just before I passed out,
you clearly grabbed me like this.

-Me?
-Yes.

No way.

Way.

Oh, Grandpa.

Did you miss the last bus?

Did you miss the last bus?

I'm sorry. I didn't bring my cell phone.

Sorry. After I missed the bus,
we were talking and…

I was worried.

Let's go home.
You'll just have to stay the night.

Let's go home.
You'll just have to stay the night.

Is that okay?

Of course.

Thank you.

Our house has plenty of room.

Jiwon.

Come and sit down for dinner.

What about Dad? He's out of the hospital.

He went out at the crack of dawn
to go down to Yangso.

He went out at the crack of dawn
to go down to Yangso.

To the school? Why?

I think he's gone to see old man Yun.

Why would he do that?

Why do you think?

Why do you think?

He wants him present at your inauguration

so he can humiliate him
in front of the townspeople.

He's gone to plot that.

Is he really planning to do that?

Is he really planning to do that?

I tried to stop him, but he just pushed
his wheelchair right past me.

Jiwon!

So you're trying to tell me,

So you're trying to tell me,

you came all this way to ask me
to attend your son's inauguration?

In this state?

Do you really think I'll go?

Do you really think I'll go?

-You'll probably have no choice.
-What?

Eighteen years ago, when I had
that issue with the golf course,

I came to see you so many times.

I'm sure you remember
slamming the door in my face.

I'm sure you remember
slamming the door in my face.

I begged you to hear me out.

You were so heartless.

Unlike you, I'm prepared to listen
to those who oppose me.

Unlike you, I'm prepared to listen
to those who oppose me.

Even though I am well within my rights
to go ahead and flatten everything.

That is very big of you.

That is very big of you.

I'm just saying
everything hinges on your attitude.

If I don't go, you will just clear it all?

Every last blade of grass!

Every last blade of grass!

Then I'll go.

I will subject myself to humiliation,
just as you desire.

However, you must keep your promise.

I knew you'd see sense.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Just because.

Even though you used to be careless,

Even though you used to be careless,

I hoped you might have
a shred of decency inside you.

What?

Never mind. It's nothing.

See you on the day
of the inauguration then.

See you on the day
of the inauguration then.

Hello?

Goodness me.

Hello…

Hello…

Excuse me…

You!

What are you doing here?

I'm looking for your grandfather…

Oh, Mr. Chairman.

Hello.

Oh, good morning.

Oh, good morning.

What are you doing here
at this time of the day?

What's going on?

He missed the last bus…

What are you doing here this early
on the weekend? And looking like that?

What are you doing here this early
on the weekend? And looking like that?

If you missed the last bus,
you should have taken a taxi.

Eat as much as you want, okay?

Eat as much as you want, okay?

Are you for real?
With that petty, little plan of yours?

I told you. When I say
I'm going to do something, I do it.

Getting rid of me
when you're back to health

and running the school yourself too?

Then, why are you insisting on holding
an inauguration ceremony for me?

Then, why are you insisting on holding
an inauguration ceremony for me?

We have to do it now
so we can both brag about ourselves.

I hear that kid who had
such a bright future is a teacher here.

-Father.
-Don't get waylaid by sappy sentiment.

Yun Jaeho and his granddaughter
are nothing more than our employees.

Yun Jaeho and his granddaughter
are nothing more than our employees.

That's what I want to demonstrate.

That my business won't be ruined
by one word from Yun Jaeho.

And I'm no longer the Seok Gyeongtae
who snuck away into the night.

In front of everyone!

In front of everyone!

What's so bad about that?

Father, you're really--

There will be 41 of them,
42 including Yun Jaeho.

So don't do it halfway. Get some nice
catering so that everybody eats well.

So don't do it halfway. Get some nice
catering so that everybody eats well.

A decent amount of booze too.

I've arranged it with Ms. Jang,
so give her a call to set it up.

You can leave now.
I have to write my congratulatory speech.

You're going to do one?

It'll be the highlight.

"From 1980 to today,
for roughly 40 years…"

Mr. Chairman.

Hello.

Oh, good morning.

This is what your father mentioned.

This is what your father mentioned.

I don't want to blow my own horn,
but we do great catering and lunch boxes.

I've already briefed them,
so just mention my name.

Okay, I will give them a call
to sort things out.

Okay, I will give them a call
to sort things out.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Why didn't he take a taxi, damn it?

What business is it of mine?

It has nothing to do with me.

Whoever she was with.

Whoever she was with.

Whatever she did.

It's irrelevant…

to me.

She's nobody to me. It doesn't matter.

Stop obsessing about it.

Grandpa won't give me a straight answer.

Am I obligated to answer?

Did he really have to sleep over
at your house?

You have no obligation to answer.

Hello? Yes, that's correct.

Everything has been moved.
Lock, stock, and barrel.

-Who did?
-The employees.

Why?

It's not just the leak.

It's not just the leak.

It's not in very good condition overall.

It's related to student safety,
so I ordered it be fixed immediately.

That's not what I'm asking.
Why did it have to be today?

The sports field is quite dusty,
and your father is coming.

Hey, why is it on the sports field
all of a sudden?

I think he's lost his mind.

Ms. Yun, is this going to be okay?

I don't why he's being like this.

Why has he invited townspeople?

And the former chairman.

Townspeople?

Absolutely amazing!

Here's your extra food.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

So, you're saying you two have met before?

We have indeed.

Where?

That's a secret.

Why is it that these days, every time
we have a dinner, I end up getting hurt?

Why is it that these days, every time
we have a dinner, I end up getting hurt?

Meeting by fate like this can't be good.

It's all in the past.
He was just a 17-year-old kid.

Why? I think it's fate.

Of course it's fate.

I don't know how or where you met,

but the probability of meeting like this
a decade later, can't be very high.

Everyone worked really hard today.

Everyone worked really hard today.

Let's have a toast.

To what? To fate?

To fate.

To fate.

-To fate!
-To fate!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

Let me just steal this chair.

-Let's have another round.
-I've drunk too much already.

-Let's do this.
-Great job today.

Thanks for all your effort. Bottoms up.

We really pulled it off.

Mr. Chairman, let me pour you a drink.

-I'll just pour up to here.
-Oh, thank you.

Me too.

-Cheers!

That's nice.

You have to drink in odd numbers.

Let's have another. Just one more.

Drink up.

Let's go.

-Great work today.

Great work everybody.

Thanks for your effort.

He's a sly fox.

-Great job today.
-You had a hard time.

The chairman?

The chairman?

When his father tried to scheme,
he blocked it before he could even start.

Which almost ended up getting me killed.

And he arranged for a reporter to come,
so it will make the news.

And he arranged for a reporter to come,
so it will make the news.

Now, his father

won't easily be able to usurp him
as chairman of the foundation.

Think how it would look.

-Great work today.
-Great work today.

He is a sly fox.

This food is outstanding.

The meat is moreish,
and the noodles are nice and tangy.

Eating them together, the whole is
so much better than the sum of the parts.

Eating them together, the whole is
so much better than the sum of the parts.

You've been through a lot today. Dig in.

Have I? I don't think so.

-Get home safely.
-Be careful on your way home.

Get home safely.

-Be careful.
-See you tomorrow.

Are you going to be okay?

It's fine. We both live in Seoul,
so we can go together.

Mr. Gong, are you sure you're okay
to move into school housing?

Mr. Gong, are you sure you're okay
to move into school housing?

Dear me.

I would love it.
Commuting to school is hell.

Would it make you uncomfortable?

Maybe your grandfather and I got a bit
carried away when we made the decision.

Not at all. Moreover,
that house was originally built

to house teachers and staff
that live a long way away.

to house teachers and staff
that live a long way away.

Then I will take charge
of all the cooking, cleaning, and laundry.

If you did that,
you'd be better off commuting.

Your taxi's here.

2744.

It's over there. 2744.

-I'll be off now.
-Okay, bye.

I'll be at school early tomorrow.
Get home safely.

Bye.

Dear me.

Dear me.

Is that our dear Munsu?

Did that little punk
not come home last night?

Did that little punk
not come home last night?

Huh? Of course he did.
He went out again very early.

Change the passcode to the front door.

I want him out.

Oh, honey.

Gyeongtae!

Gyeongtae!

He's not 18. He's 36.

Do you think he's broke?
He's rolling in money.

What are you saying?

He packed his things and left
this morning.

He packed his things and left
this morning.

He's always a step ahead of you.

What the heck? Where has he gone?

"Our dear Munsu"?
Why aren't you coming in?

The thing is…

What is the meaning of this?

What is the meaning of this?

You said this place was
to house teachers and staff.

If you want to nitpick,
I do kind of qualify.

EPILOGUE

So his daughter

was sued for slander by her CEO,
which caused an almighty uproar.

She was already struggling,
and now she's lost her parents too.

She was already struggling,
and now she's lost her parents too.

You mean that kid who collapsed
and is now in the hospital?

I feel sorry for her.

You should feel sorry for us.
I can't believe he was embezzling.

You should feel sorry for us.
I can't believe he was embezzling.

Excuse me.

LOVE YOUR ENEMY

We dated briefly 18 years ago
for just 3 months. And it ended like that.

We dated briefly 18 years ago
for just 3 months. And it ended like that.

So, unless you still have
feelings for me--

Do you think I'm crazy?

Do you really not know
why he's moving in?

I'm fine with a seven-year age gap
up or down.

Anything is fine
except someone my own age.

Hey, Seok Gyeongtae!

You bastard!

Simple and easy. Just like how
we collapsed 18 years ago.

Simple and easy. Just like how
we collapsed 18 years ago.

He may not have had a choice,

but for those of us it affected, life was
so hard that death might have been better.
