OUR MOVIE

ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL PEOPLE, PLACES,

OR MEDICAL CONDITIONS IS COINCIDENTAL.

CHILD ACTORS WERE ALWAYS SUPERVISED

AND FILMED UNDER OFFICIAL GUIDELINES.

5 YEARS AGO

How was your audition?

I didn't go.

Next time.

I want to go when I'm more prepared.

You act a little weird sometimes.

I like that about you.

I really wanted to say this today.

What if…

we tried dating?

Sorry, that was out of the blue.

But still…

I just had to say it today.

Thank you.

Okay.

Huh?

Thank you for saying that.

Right.

But why today of all days?

Sorry.

I guess I was clueless. I didn't know--

It's not about you, it's me.

I just don't have any space left in me.

I'm sorry.

What do you mean?

Well…

take care.

That's a bit harsh, Daeum.

What, like you'll never see me again?

How dramatic.

I'll take care of myself too.

Me, of all people?

What was I planning?

When I can't even do anything…

When I'm going to die soon…

Who says you can't do anything?

I told you, you're someone who can do everything.

Me, of all people?

Confessing my feelings…

when I'm going to die soon?

Is it weird if I like you?

You lunatic.

Of course, it's weird.

I CAN GET HEALTHY IN A WEEK TOO

Talk about timing.

I guess I really am weird.

EPISODE 6

It's not weird.

You're not weird at all.

So take your time eating.

Go on ahead. Pick up the key at the front desk.

Mr. Lee.

When the alarm went off earlier,

I really wanted to run away.

I didn't want to sit there eating

in front of the guy I just told my feelings to.

I kept thinking I wanted to get the hell out of there.

And honestly, you really weren't helping.

You should've just left.

You know I can't run.

Daeum.

Is this all part of your plan too? Another gutsy move?

I guess this is…

improv?

That mismatch is driving me nuts.

Let me just tie this up before I go.

Can I be honest with you too?

Of course.

I thought, by the time this film is finished

and shown to the world…

you might already be gone.

And even before that…

I wondered if you might not

make it.

That's not weird.

I even thought…

your death might generate publicity…

and ultimately lead to this film's success.

This was my first chance to direct in 5 years, and I felt completely lost.

Then you showed up…

and it eased my mind because you were the final piece

that could complete this film.

You can blame me. I'll take it.

But we're collaborators on this movie,

and there's a line we shouldn't cross.

Those fleeting feelings

might actually be good for you right now.

But I…

don't want this film…

to be ruined because of those feelings.

Thank you

for being honest with me.

This disease

is accompanied by intense pain and seizures at the onset.

As time passes, the frequency of seizures increases,

ultimately leading to death.

As you're aware, there is no known cure at this time.

That's why so far,

stem cell-based clinical studies

have focused on easing pain

and lowering the frequency of seizures.

But sadly,

the recent

continuous failures of those trials suggest…

that this disease is, in fact…

Sorry I'm late.

No, it's fine.

But you're usually the earliest here. What happened today?

Don't even get me started.

I went through hell this morning.

That's our first assistant camera, Lim Hoseob.

I called a taxi at the crack of dawn to take him to the ER.

We all got wasted drinking together,

but why was he the only one who fell down the stairs?

That's worrying.

We'll just find a stand-in first AC for a month.

I'm not worried about that, I'm worried about him.

In this line of work, your body is your asset.

He hasn't changed.

Still got that odd yet gentle side.

TERMS OF JEALOUSY

"TERMS OF JEALOUSLY" NO.1 IN PRE-SALES…

WAS THE SCANDAL A CRISIS OR OPPORTUNITY?

- Yuhui. - Yes?

- Let's release two photos of Lee Daeum. - Got it.

I'll choose them, so you just send them to the press.

Yes, sir.

Oh, as for the reporter…

I'll call Noh Huitae.

Okay.

LEE GYUWON: LEE DAEUM

Oh, you're here. The crew started eating first.

You're full of energy.

The mishap with the camera team…

I'm sorry.

Hey, if it's anyone's fault, it's mine.

- I'm sorry, Mr. Lee. - No, it's all right.

Come in and eat.

Daeum said she'll eat on her own.

And her manager is probably…

Not going to be up by this afternoon?

I heard you did that.

What? No way.

He was making somaek like crazy and literally just

passed out, you know.

Hong, you said there was a university hospital nearby, right?

Can you check how long it takes to get there by car?

The hospital? Why?

Ah, you mean because of that injury? In case someone else gets hurt?

Yes. Look into it for me.

- Roger that. - Okay.

Go and eat.

Okay.

TIME TO EAT

THE MISFIT RESTAURANT

What on earth were you thinking, Lee Daeum?

Doesn't sound like a line from our movie.

Mr. Lee, did you sleep well?

I slept a lot better than I thought I would.

Feels so refreshing.

So…

are the spots from yesterday all confirmed?

I'm guessing the bookstore is.

The nursing home probably is too.

Is that enough for your meal?

I just like bread.

Let's go get something to eat.

Eat up. Enjoy.

Thank you.

Enjoy your meal too.

Okay.

Mr. Lee!

An article just dropped.

An article about what?

LEE JEHA'S NEW FILM "LOVE IN WHITE"

CASTS 1-IN-1,000 ROOKIE LEE DAEUM

Daeum,

are you ready for this?

Pardon?

You both look good in the pictures.

Still, they could've chosen a better profile photo for you.

Time to say goodbye to your quiet life, Daeum.

Excuse me.

- It'll be all right. - Okay.

Hey.

What did you do?

Man, I was so busy that I couldn't make it there.

Everything's fine, right?

I said, what the hell is this?

Why drop an article like that out of nowhere?

Oh, you saw that?

Hang on, I'll call you later when I can head down there.

Forget it. I'm heading up now. Let's talk in person.

- Good shot. - Nice.

It looked like the studio leaked the info on purpose.

The photos turned out too pretty for a rehearsal.

Isn't she the kind of face film directors love?

How should I put it?

Yes, she's got that vibe.

She doesn't even have an agency. Just a single manager glued to her 24-7.

Word is, the director hired him.

Nice shot!

Nice shot!

Oh, isn't Seoyoung in that movie too?

Ms. Go, you must've seen this rookie.

I've only said hello to her a couple of times.

Never seen her properly.

Oh, my.

Drat.

Daeum!

Daeum?

We're about to leave,

but you don't have a ride.

Oh, my manager's going to pick me up.

Uh, he's still not sober, I think.

Sorry?

Still drunk.

Daeum.

You can ride along with me.

- Pardon? - You can ride along with me.

Okay.

Is there another ride?

Is there another ride?

Hmm?

You can go.

I'll see you later.

Let's go.

You'll be more comfortable taking your meds in my car.

Clever of you, Mr. Lee.

Things are about to get noisy.

The article.

Don't worry about that.

I'll handle it like last time.

If word gets around that a rookie

is turning down everyone in the industry left and right,

it'll just add fuel to the fire.

Mmm.

Oh, then I'll just say this.

That I'm just waiting to see how this first movie goes

to jack up my value as much as I can

and take my pick of meetings.

That way, people will think,

"She's going to be trouble if we sign her too fast."

Sounds good, right?

I'm feeling really sleepy all of a sudden.

Let me nap for a bit.

Wake me up when we get there.

Because I'm not someone who exists to act the way you want or predict.

That's something you should expect from someone who loves you.

Not me.

MINHEE: JAEIN IS IN MS. GO'S OFFICE RIGHT NOW

Go ahead.

So, what's this about?

I heard a lot about you from Seoyoung. She says you're very close.

Ah.

Yes, we are.

I'm so excited to be working with her on this movie.

I've heard a lot about you, too, Ms. Go.

I hear there's someone else you know in Love in White.

Yes, there is. Lee Daeum.

Are you two friends?

Not exactly, but we know each other well.

Oh.

I'm very interested in Daeum,

so I wanted some information.

Are you saying

you asked to meet me just to ask about Daeum?

Yes, that's right.

Why me, though?

That Daeum is a tough one to get through to.

I thought it might help to get some info before trying to approach her again.

You went to college together, no?

We did.

Hi.

GPA: 2.5, GRADE: B-

What about you, Daeum?

GPA: 4.5, GRADE: A+

An A+, huh?

Well, Daeum did carry the whole thing.

Of course, she got an A+.

You didn't even come to rehearsals because of your shoot.

But…

she disappeared after just one semester without telling anyone.

She made a real impact in that one semester, though.

She got a reputation for being a good actress.

The professors liked her,

and her classmates and upperclassmen

all liked her too.

Mmm.

A social butterfly, so to speak?

All the more interesting…

…someone like that having a long absence and no background info. Isn't it?

Actually,

I saw something else in her.

Mmm. You did?

You're curious, right?

If you figure that out, I think you might be able to get through to her.

Mmm. So let me hear it.

I think I'll stop here for today.

I know you very well, Ms. Go.

I think we're cut from the same cloth.

The same cloth?

Is there anything you want to know about me?

Goodbye…

I'm not sure.

I've never really thought about bringing you in.

I'm not even curious about you.

I'm looking for a lead actress with real appeal.

Like Lee Daeum.

They definitely started off talking about Daeum,

but I can't figure out what the context was.

Hmm.

Jaein looked totally rattled when she left.

Thanks for telling me, Minhee.

But also…

Yes, Ms. Chae?

You're getting better at this.

I'll keep…

I'll keep working hard.

Come in.

Dr. Lee, I never got to properly say hello last time.

Right.

Well, then…

How have you been?

Just trying to survive.

That's all.

Sure.

What brings you to the hospital?

Are you unwell?

You know she only ever relied on you while she was alive.

So I just came to see you.

And there's something

I really wanted to say to you.

Dr. Lee…

I have not been well.

Go on in.

If anything happens…

I'll call you right away.

From now on, I'll get updates through Junbyung.

Reach out to him instead.

Okay.

Thank you.

Bye.

That was harsh, Lee Jeha.

Had to open your big mouth, huh?

What kind of an answer…

Lee Daeum, you idiot.

Come on.

Okay,

then let's start with the kiss.

Whether it's a kiss or confession,

how the other person acts afterwards says everything.

But…

the things that he supposedly said

just make it confusing.

I heard he didn't seem to hate it,

but drew a clear line when it came to the confession.

How do you know this person?

From the crew?

Yes, it's a crew member.

What are they doing at work? I'm jealous.

Hey, this is a serious situation here.

Can you focus?

So, apparently the one who kissed and confessed first

isn't usually like that.

She's usually very rational and--

Hey, who kisses and confesses based on rational thinking?

Oh.

Does that mean she really likes him?

Is that why she felt hurt?

She felt hurt?

Yeah.

Hurt to the point of tears.

Hang on.

Do you have someone there?

What?

Look in the mirror. You look very hurt right now.

Hey, I told you it wasn't me.

How can someone like me like someone?

Listen to me, Daeum.

Everyone dies.

Before that, we get old. Before that, we're young.

We screw up, we cause trouble,

fall for random people, kiss them, regret it.

That's what we do.

Where's that fearless, nothing-to-lose Daeum

I used to know?

Hey! I told you it's not me.

Hmm?

NAM JAEIN

LEE GYUWON: LEE DAEUM KIM HYUNSANG: KIM JUNGWOO

"A thousand to one"?

That was a great headline you wrote.

Yes, an exclusive…

Okay.

I'll arrange a meeting later.

Okay.

Hey, I wanted to trust you and wait, too,

but the whole mystery thing?

That's not the trend anymore.

She's our star.

She needs to be seen.

This is going to stir things up.

It won't stop with Ms. Go.

Everyone will start chasing after Daeum,

and if we keep declining…

they might start dragging her name through the mud.

Yeah, that's nothing new.

You've been making a big deal out of small things lately, you know?

And why would a director even worry about that?

That's not your responsibility.

I want to push back all promo and exposure until we finish filming.

And cancel the photo shoot we talked about last time too.

Hey, Jeha.

Now you're really pushing your luck.

What, did I plaster Daeum's personal info in the middle of downtown?

All I did was post one rehearsal photo!

And another photo with you, yeah.

I said this kind of promo isn't necessary.

You'll get everything you need later--

Get what?

Just let me do my job. I need to focus.

Let me just make this film, okay?

I'm not going to let this movie ruin me.

I'm not going to ruin this movie either.

I'm probably more desperate than you are for this film to succeed.

Thanks, Gyo.

- That's yours, Daeum. - Looks tasty.

I was hoping it'd just be the two of us.

Oh, I didn't know. Sorry.

No need to be sorry, though.

I'm leaving anyway.

See? I got it to go.

You two are still inseparable, huh?

Does that mean you lied, Gyoyeong?

What are you talking about?

When Daeum disappeared.

You said you didn't know where she was.

That's what people told me.

Gyoyeong didn't know back then either.

I just took a leave without telling anyone.

Why are you all salty and nosy about it?

It's not you I'm salty or nosy about, so stay out of it.

Wow.

Wow, that attitude. It's gotten even worse.

I'm here to talk about the film. Are you going to stay for that?

Ever heard of taking a hint?

I'll be out front taking a walk.

Call me when you're done.

Okay.

How have you been?

When I saw you at the table read,

I was so shocked I nearly fainted.

You've only ever done a few bit parts, right?

Yes, that's right.

There are tons of great actresses.

So why you, of all people?

Did you get the role yourself,

or did someone hand it to you?

Just wondering if there was another route besides the audition.

If I told you, would you try to do the same?

It's actually a top secret of mine that I keep for auditions.

I acted like my life depended on it.

I truly believed I was the only one

who could make this character feel real.

That's all.

Like your life depended on it?

Wow.

You haven't changed at all.

That phony act will come back to bite you one day.

Jaein,

I was really excited to see you again,

but maybe that was just me.

But honestly,

I've never done anything to offend or wrong you in any way.

So I hope this kind of rudeness ends today.

If you do this again--

Who are you to decide that?

Nice pictures, by the way.

What?

I have something to say.

Are you her loyal little servant?

Please…

be good to Daeum.

Who are you to ask me that?

Her friend.

Jaein,

you've got a lot of experience

and know a lot of people.

So please help Daeum

settle in okay.

I don't know what you're doing with your life,

but worry about yourself.

Daeum's the lead, and I'm just playing her friend.

Who's supposed to be helping who?

Hey, for the makeup test, what exactly am I doing?

It's just what it sounds like.

Just get her there and back safely.

Oh, okay.

About Daeum…

Did she say anything?

Say anything? No, not really.

Why don't you call her if you're curious?

No, it's not like that.

Just…

wondering if she was stressed about the article.

Yeah, so just call her yourself.

It's not like that.

Call her yourself!

I'm hanging up.

H-Hello?

What the heck?

MPDS: A RECENT REVIEW

OF GENETIC FACTORS AND SURVIVAL PROSPECTS

HANKUK NATIONAL UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL - DR. LEE JUNGHYO

OVERCOMING MITOCHONDRIAL POWER DEFICIENCY SYNDROME… LEE JUNGHYO

MITOCHONDRIA: FROM THE CELLS IN OUR BODY… LEE JUNGHYO

My daughter's life is on the line,

and the best is all you can do?

That's truly irresponsible of you.

I thought… you might already be gone.

I even thought…

your death might generate publicity

and ultimately lead to this film's success.

Thank you

for being honest with me.

Next is…

Dr. Lee?

Yeah.

Oh, just eat without me.

I need some rest.

Yes, sir.

Let's head out.

DIRECTOR LEE JEHA

We're about to begin shooting.

As I told you before,

Daeum won't be able to handle it.

Daeum is an actress.

One with a sickness.

I know that very well.

You do?

Yet you still can't give up on her?

Do you really have to involve my sick child?

While I was searching for information on Daeum's disease.

I kept seeing your name again and again, on every paper, every article, everywhere.

After seeing your name so many times,

I finally understand why you said it was irresponsible of me to just say

I'd do my best.

So…

I'm going to do my best

to take responsibility.

Is that so?

How so?

As Daeum needs to eat more frequently than others to maintain energy,

I'll make sure that's taken care of.

Her shooting and rest schedules will be entirely built around her treatment.

You listen to me, Mr. Lee.

I'm also preparing for the worst.

I know there's a chance

she could suddenly go into a seizure during filming.

So every scene with her

will be shot within a 10 km radius

of a university hospital.

I spoke with Dr. Kim Minseok…

and he's trying to keep things stable with preventive medication.

But if things…

still go wrong despite that…

If they do?

I'll personally make sure that Daeum…

is pulled from the film.

Really?

Then what about your film?

Isn't the movie what's most important to you?

Yes. Even if I have to give up this movie…

I'll return Daeum to this hospital.

I just want my daughter to live

even if it's for one more hour, for one more day.

I know that's selfish of me.

But I don't care what condition she's in.

As long as she's alive, that's enough.

Daeum got the film approved for production

with this one scene.

I won't pretend I know every part of Daeum's life.

For me…

she's just an actress.

Someone I want to make this film with.

A good actress.

We'll show you the best we can do with this film.

Loving someone who knows when they're going to die…

it's one of the hardest things.

The one left behind carries that pain forever.

You know where Hyunsang is, don't you?

Is he very busy in Seoul?

Dr. Lee…

I have not been well.

Before her clinical trial,

I was so full of hope and excitement.

But Minjeong kept staring out the window.

Always saying she wanted to go outside.

I asked what she'd even do outside,

and it was nothing special.

She said she just wanted to walk around like everyone else.

I didn't even

try to listen to her at all.

I only cared about

keeping my kid alive one more day.

Looking back, I regret it so much.

It was all me being selfish.

Ma'am…

Dr. Lee.

Let Daeum

do what she wants to do.

You still have the chance to do what's right.

Travel time on weekday mornings is usually two and a half hours.

Anyone driving or taking a van instead of the bus,

please drive safely.

Also, we do have

full support and permits from the city during our shoot,

but please don't forget your manners!

Especially you smokers.

If you're not going to toss your butts properly,

just bring your vape.

Bring! Your! Vape!

Bring! Your! Vape!

Please make sure of that.

Okay, uh, I know the schedule's been pretty tight.

Thank you for your hard work. We're really starting soon.

It's only going to get tighter,

so let's all take care of ourselves first.

BONE HEALTH SUPPLEMENT

We can't have anyone breaking any bones on set, right?

Everyone take one of these before you go.

Now, Director Lee.

Say "ah."

No, I'm good.

Yeah, it's all about taking care of ourselves.

Ah. Hey, Hong. The other thing.

Oh, of course.

There's one more announcement.

Mr. Bu is treating all of us

to dinner tonight!

- Bu Seungwon! Bu Seungwon! - Bu Seungwon! Bu Seungwon!

Let's go, Love in White!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

I booked the place next door for 7 p.m.

Wow, bone health and a free dinner?

We're getting spoiled today.

Oh, stop.

What about the actors?

They'll head over with the makeup crew once their test is done.

Look toward the front.

To the left.

- Okay, great job! - Thank you.

Next, please!

That's odd.

What is it?

Are you sick?

Me? No, I'm not sick.

Give me your hand.

Doesn't seem like indigestion.

No, it's not.

I wasn't there for the test shoot because I was abroad.

Has your face always been this pale?

My face?

I don't think so.

You're supposed to get even paler later in the movie.

That's a bit worrying. Mmm.

You're nervous, aren't you?

Yes, can you tell?

TIME TO EAT

Ms. Jo,

I got so nervous, I'm starving.

Mind if I grab a quick bite and hit the bathroom?

Sure, go ahead.

Though I just made you look all fragile. The snack might ruin that.

No, please eat.

What kind of pills are these?

Diet pills?

Just vitamins. They work better after meals.

Who carries vitamins in this kind of bottle?

Look at the bottom.

What?

The bottom. Look at it.

PROP ITEM

Totally something Gyuwon would carry, right?

Ah, Gyuwon and Yoona, if you're ready, we're rolling.

Okay.

Let's go.

Yes, Mr. Ji.

I'm almost there. See you soon.

You lost a lot of weight, Jungwoo.

I lost a lot, yeah. I worked hard.

You must work out a lot.

- Is it good? - It's delicious.

Seungwon, have a drink.

What's this?

Attention, everyone!

Are you all enjoying your meal?

- Yes! - Yes!

When I say "Love in White,"

please say "I love you!"

Now, Love in White!

- I love you! - I love you!

- Cheers! - Cheers!

I love you.

Hey, you're here.

A moment please, everyone!

Let me introduce someone real quick.

Since our first AC Hoseob is out for a month with a fractured ankle,

we brought in a total ace from outside to fill in.

Hello, I'm Jeong Eunho.

It's a short stint, but I'll do my best.

So it's finally starting, Mr. Lee.

Yes, I look forward to it.

You know, you're a hard one to read.

Can't figure out what you're thinking.

He's always had a good poker face.

Mmm. Of course, Seoyoung knows this guy very well.

I'll be fine. Go ahead and drink. I can just grab a cab later.

I can't drink in front of the actress I'm managing.

I'm good.

He says this now, but back in Gangwon-do…

Why don't you take a drink first, Ms. Yu?

So how did the director's friend end up managing Daeum?

I've always wanted to work on a film set at least once.

Why?

Admiration, I guess?

You know, it's romantic.

The actors, managers, and crew

all coming together for one project.

Who knew our dear manager had a romantic side?

Excuse me for a bit.

I need some fresh air.

I might as well drink.

Oh, there he goes again.

Catch you later.

It's been a while, Hong.

I'm on a diet.

I think eating would help more

with your diet than alcohol.

If you skip the snacks, you can drink tons and not gain a pound.

What? What's so funny?

Ah, our Ms. Jo here is always full of charm.

Ms. Jo, do you have a boyfriend?

Why would I bother with one of those?

Wow, so cool.

That means we're all single here.

I'm sorry.

Back to the point.

Sure, love happens.

And then the woman dies.

That's when it got interesting for me.

The man

is total trash.

Just nonstop trash.

But that's real life.

This movie's basically a documentary.

It happened to me too.

Well, to say that's what real life and real love is…

I don't think I agree.

Yes, our DP here said that famous line.

"That's not Love in White, that's Love in Black."

He's such a romantic.

Love in Black! Nailed it.

It's totally dark.

So you're on Team Original Story?

Yes, I am.

That's a total fantasy.

Textbook love. Nowhere to be seen around us.

Just because it's not around you doesn't mean it's not out there.

Yes, you're too cynical.

He knows she's dying,

but he still loves her so much

that he comes back to her. That's what's meaningful.

T-That's what's romantic, isn't it?

It's way more fun when the man just uses the woman,

never comes back, and ends up in ruins like a piece of trash.

This film's going to be a hit for sure.

If people are already debating the ending,

that means it's got plenty to chew on.

I need to use the restroom.

Okay.

The other day, I noticed…

No, never mind.

Come on, don't leave us hanging.

Exactly.

There's something…

between Mr. Lee and Daeum, right?

- What? - What?

Why?

Did you see something?

Oh, please, you know exactly what I mean.

I'm just saying this because I'm worried, okay?

Mr. Lee's young. Daeum's even younger. The way the two look at each other…

Lee Jeha? In love?

That guy doesn't do love at all.

- I'm sorry. - What's up with this dude?

Got a lighter?

I'm all right.

You've had a lot to drink. Are you all right?

Actually, Mr. Ji.

I called you out here

because I had something to say.

What is it?

On our previous movie shoot,

Dasol, who worked under me for three years,

got caught up in a messy love triangle on set

and ran off.

We couldn't find anyone to replace her,

and it nearly derailed the whole project.

These kids are in their prime.

Their careers can't get destroyed because of stuff like that.

Well, I agree that it shouldn't happen,

but why are you bringing this up with me?

You're the head of the camera crew.

I mean…

Why are you laughing?

Come on, Ms. Jo--

This isn't a laughing matter.

One wrong move and the whole shoot could fall apart.

This is a really serious issue,

and you're laughing?

Well, I…

Oh, dear.

I understand. I'll keep an eye on my crew.

Sure. So take this.

This!

This is what I'm talking about! Stop it!

Your guys must've learned this stuff from you!

Taking care of people in subtle ways!

Inside is a few steps away,

so why are you taking your coat off for me here?

Well…

you seemed cold.

- Mr. Ji… - Yes?

- Gosh, what do I do? - Huh?

Don't look at this.

Is that…

Did it leave a hole?

Goodness. It got a spot right there.

I'm sorry, Mr. Ji.

Oh, well…

this looks quite nice.

We're about to start shooting.

If your condition worsens, 70 or 80 people will have to stop everything.

DAD

Hey, Dad.

Hey.

Where are you?

I had a makeup test today.

And now all the cast and crew are having dinner together.

Is that so?

W-Why did you call?

Come to the hospital when you're free.

We need to check you before the shoot begins.

Dad.

Hanging up now.

That's one hell of a sigh.

Long time no see, Daeum.

It's been a while, Eunho.

I didn't know you were still acting.

I didn't know.

As well as meeting again like this.

I was surprised too.

You're on the camera crew?

I prefer being behind the camera rather than in front of it.

Mmm.

Honestly,

that article about you really shocked me.

You just…

completely disappeared back then.

Could you…

tell me now

why you had to…

do that back then?

Daeum.

There you are.

Mr. Lee.

Hello, Mr. Lee.

I'm Jeong Eunho.

Yes, the new camera team member.

Yes.

You two seem to know each other.

We went to college together.

I see, you know each other from college.

Can we talk for a bit, Daeum?

- Right now? - Yes, right now.

Sorry, Eunho. Let's talk more later.

Hang on.

You changed your number, right?

Can you give me that one?

Okay. I'll be in touch.

Okay.

You two must've been pretty close.

You were laughing and all back there.

Doesn't everyone feel close and sentimental

to their first love?

First love?

Why are you looking at me like that? You're embarrassing me.

I'm allowed to have a first love, too, you know.

That guy Jeong Eunho

was your first love?

Yes.

The kind where I couldn't date him because I decided not to.

So he doesn't know your situation, does he?

He doesn't.

It's fine to get along with him on set,

but you should

keep a little distance

if you don't want him to find out about you.

Okay.

Seoyoung, Jungwoo,

Eunho.

Also you.

And Jaein.

I guess my dad counts too.

What do you mean?

The lines I should keep from crossing.

It's a bit sad, though.

I know I can't undo what's already happened.

I already said how I feel, and you heard it.

As hard and confusing as it is for me,

I imagine it's hard for you too.

I understand what you mean about not crossing a line.

But after that day…

…I keep wondering about all the possibilities like a fool.

What if…

What would've happened if I wasn't sick?

What if Lee Daeum was just an ordinary person?

Then I would've just been a bratty daughter,

a friendly colleague and close friend,

and an actress to a director who can't help

but feel a spark

with each other.

All of that could've come very naturally to me.

At least that wouldn't have been impossible.

But right now,

I'm not someone who can step inside that line.

You're not about to cry, are you?

I'm not crying.

Never in front of Director Lee!

You know why?

Because I'm picturing you dancing right now.

Like this.

That just dried up my tears!

It feels good, though.

Selfishly saying everything I want.

I'm sorry.

It seems like the night made me sentimental tonight.

What are they doing?

Beats me.

They look comfortable together.

I wish they'd be uncomfortable.

Just enough to match what I felt.

And that concludes the story of my third marriage.

There was a certain sincerity to it,

although it had a shady start.

Ah, so…

are you happy now?

Happy?

Well, I'll tell you my next story.

This one's about my fourth marriage.

Okay! Let's move on. Anyone else got a fun story?

Doesn't have to be fun,

just anything to change the mood.

Could you…

love someone even if you knew they were dying?

Someone… …who's dying?

Who is this about?

Love in White's original story.

Hyunsang falls for Gyuwon even though he knows she's terminally ill.

I wanted to know if that's realistically possible.

Come on.

These days, people practically

trade medical records before they get married and all that.

Doesn't seem likely.

Right.

Hiding it would be a problem if you're in a relationship.

But falling in love despite knowing it…

…yeah, that's tough.

It's a tough one.

Is that so?

What about you, Director Lee?

Did you rewrite it as a tragedy because you don't believe in that kind of love?

Excuse me, I need the restroom.

What about Lee Jeha as a person?

Could you love someone knowing how it ends?

I'm not sure, but maybe…

that's what it takes for it to be love.

You weren't ready to hear that, were you?

Ms. Chae.

Spoken like a true romance director.

Or maybe it's something that you blurted out

because you're really in love.

Is it you that likes her,

or her that likes you?

What are you talking about?

Are you running out of article ideas?

Okay, then let me ask you this way.

Are you two into each other,

or are you just slapping

a clichéd scandal on top of an already clichéd film?

Is it true?

That you're dying?

I said, is it true?

Are you really dying?

It's the sea!

Do you think I…

No, we can finish this movie?

Mr. Lee!

I don't know how it'll turn out or how it'll be remembered either.

This is Noh Huitae from Npatch.

Would you happen to know these people?

They're graduates here. Starting class of '19.

That's some insanely realistic acting.

She actually looks like a real patient.

I got the feeling you didn't know much about this film.

Will you believe what I'm telling you?
