THE PRACTICAL GUIDE TO LOVE

What is...

going on?

Oh, I...

We just look like a couple in their talking stage

having spent the night together.

But why is he there?

Oh! I went out for some fresh air.

Oh, right! Right by the cafe.

We said we'd go for a second round of drinks, right?

Are you guys detectives?

You think going over what happened will get you anywhere?

Be careful!

Watch your step!

One, two!

We’re almost there.

Wait!

Oh, gosh.

Are you kidding me?

Should I just leave him here?

No, don't leave without me.

You're like a puppy with separation anxiety.

One, two, three!

- Ui-yeong! - Hey, Ji-su.

What are you doing here? Weren't you at the cafe? What?

I left something at the hotel.

I see.

Excuse me! Why are you sleeping on her shoulder? Hey!

I'll take him to the hotel.

You're going to the hotel like that?

- Let's go. - Huh?

Come. Unless you want to sleep here.

- Gosh! - Wait!

- What a mess. - Let's go.

- Oh, gosh. - Man!

I'm thirsty...

Please give me some water, sir.

You're kidding.

Seriously.

Here.

- Cold! - Are you serious?

You're a handful.

It's cold.

Let's go, Ui-yeong.

Are you sleeping?

This...

isn't right.

Gosh.

That hurts.

The drinks really got to her head, huh?

There's no way I can leave these two alone.

THE PRACTICAL GUIDE TO LOVE EPISODE 6

I'm sorry, you couldn't even go home because of me.

It's fine. I'm okay.

What do you mean?

You can't just trust some guy and go to his hotel room!

What would you have done without me?

I understand I owe you one

but I'm not the type

to cross boundaries just because I'm drunk.

How do you know your drunk habits when you don't know when you get drunk?

I almost thought you were a freshman at a party.

A freshman?

Cut it out. You're making him uncomfortable.

- And nothing happened. It's fine. - Are you serious?

I'd better go before people start showing up for work.

Take a shower first.

- You slept with him, after all. - Hey!

We have a great shower room for employees.

Okay, go before people see you.

Okay, then.

Oh, wait.

Oh, right. Thanks.

I'm so sorry. I feel terrible.

Why don't we grab dinner this weekend?

Get whatever you want. My treat.

Oh...

Sure, then.

How about Saturday?

Sure, a dinner sounds great.

You owe me dinner, too. You owe me a big one.

No, you owe me many big ones.

I already told you I would.

Let's decide when to meet over text.

Okay, have a good day at work.

Thanks.

Bye.

Bye.

Are you seriously crazy? What if someone saw you?

My gosh!

Hold on.

This is too peaceful.

She never caused any trouble in her twenties.

What is she doing?

I wasted way too much energy from the morning.

Maybe I should get some coffee.

What's this?

THE MAGIC OF A SURPRISE GIFT FOR YOU

WHO WANTS TO GO HOME FIRST THING IN THE MORNING! - HYUN-MIN

Hyun-min's so cute sometimes.

Where are you, Ui-yeong?

Didn't I say it was common courtesy

to tell your rommate if you weren't coming home?

I'm calling the cops if you don't answer by 9 a.m.

WE HAD A STAFF PARTY

We had a staff party to celebrate the new event

and it ended late, so I just slept in the staff room.

Sorry.

That's my towel.

So, did you watch us two all night?

Don't you think that's a bit much?

You know what's a bit much? You sleeping on Ui-yeong's shoulder.

How can a man be so weak to alcohol?

Don't try to change the topic.

I don't like how you keep hanging around Ui-yeong.

You pretend to care, but you just want a chance with her.

Hanging around her?

You look like a virgin.

Do you even know how to get a chance?

A virgin?

Hey.

- Huh? - Oh!

Oh, this isn't what you think it is.

I saw nothing.

No need to explain your private life.

No, please let me.

Wait! There's been a misunderstanding!

Gosh.

Everyone knows everything around here.

. According to the witnesses

there wasn't just one man, but two!

I'm a little disappointed.

- Why? - You can't date multiple people

if you're really in love.

No, you can be in love and still have fun!

Listen, Sae-byeok.

Our society is too close-minded and old-fashioned.

They either think it's love or an affair.

That's why people get busted while secretly cheating

embarrass themselves, and ruin their careers!

Ui-yeong!

How long have you been there?

Oh, I just came in.

But...

don't you think that's a bit harsh?

Oh, I guess you don't believe rumors?

Hmm? What rumor?

"Despite being in her fifties, Ms. S is still the queen of romance.

She always says she's in love with acting

but in fact, she's been head-over-heels for someone lately!

She's in a common-law relationship with a surgeon who used to be married

but has an affair with Mr. B, a director, at a hotel

while being a sugar mommy to a model.

The scandal is only growing with her complicated dating life."

The queen of romance?

Could that be Son Jeong-a?

It's pretty clear that it's her.

She recently checked into our hotel.

Really?

This hotel is where she meets the director.

Mr. Jin says he can't come to the meeting today.

He just married his wife. He doesn't want her to get the wrong idea.

Is he only not coming today

or does he want me out of his movie?

Well...

What a wimp.

Sure, whatever. Let's just grab dinner and go.

- You can sit. - Okay.

Hello, I'm Kim Min-seong from Star A.

Why haven't you denied the rumor yet?

I don't want to add fuel to the fire by being so rash.

I'll explain myself soon.

You shouldn't be following me in my personal time.

- This is inappropriate. - I'll sort it...

Hey! Don't you dare...

Dong-hoon!

could you please call the ambulance?

Here, you see a larva.

Follow the larva's outer layer, which has been shed

and you'll find the larva in its pupa form

wrapped in his big blanket.

Stop it.

The pupae is finally coming out!

Am I going to be okay?

I think my autonomic nervous system is broken.

Come out.

Hot!

I'VE NEVER SEEN MR. SONG LIKE THIS

It's not just your first hangover.

It's also your first time waking up with one.

I have no right to say anything if she rejects me.

I must've been out of my mind.

I should be doing my best to impress her.

Why did I drink when I know I can't?

It's already too late.

But she was drunk with you.

I'm sure she's worried about the same thing. Don't worry.

Gosh, you're wasting so much food!

How can you not touch anything

your mom makes for you?

Aren't you seeing her on Saturday?

That's great.

Out with the old love, in with the new.

Forget the hangover with some soup

and make new memories to forget about the old ones.

This is perfect.

So, what's the plan?

We'll get some good food

and watch the movie we didn't watch last time.

It's all sorted, then!

What do you mean? I have to start planning now.

I have to make sure I make up for my drunk mess.

Hello!

Ms. Son Jeong-a will come here today.

Stay tuned for updates.

There are so many reporters here.

Man, this is a disaster.

I'll make sure to get good updates!

I guess I won't be going home anytime.

Why is the security so bad when the condo's so expensive?

Too many celebrities live there.

I can't drive you around

with my leg like this.

You should just stay here for a bit.

It's trendy to prepare what to say and all supporting documents

for one big press release these days.

Sure.

That's better than wasting all my time

answering trashy reporters everywhere.

I'm not young anymore.

I have nothing to lose.

Just find me a reporter who will write a good article for me.

To beat a romance scandal with greater love?

You're a genius.

You're sure no reporters can enter here, right?

Don't worry.

Have you...

ever used the Guest Relations Officer service?

No, what's that?

Simply put

it's a manager who will help you with your stay here.

You'll be assigned one manager

to help you around and get things for you. What do you think?

Oh! That sounds great!

Please choose a sharp female manager.

Okay, I'll look for one.

Enjoy your stay.

Can you believe it?

Did you see that article?

LIST OF FINALISTS FOR THE HOSPITAL DIRECTOR POSITION

DR. SHIN JI-HUN OF SURGERY, BORN IN 1968 (AGE 57)

HANKUK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

You've been the talk of the town all day today

and look! Speak of the devil.

I didn't think you'd be on celebrity news instead of research news.

- Is that so? - I'm happy

just to be the Vice Director of the hospital

but everyone's been asking me

to run for Director for the hospital's reputation.

I was wondering why, but now I know.

I guess gossping is fun.

Aren't you busy? I didn't think you'd have time to gossip

right in the hallway, chatting it up like a teenageer.

Looks like you're having fun.

I have a surgery, so please excuse me.

The door is closing.

SON JEONG-A

Did your check-in go smoothly?

I saw the news.

It's okay.

I didn't think it'd be easy to date such a big star, anyway.

Should I meet you at the hotel this weekend?

Hey, Mom. You didn't have dinner, right?

What's all this?

Ta-da!

It looks delicious.

Doesn't it taste amazing?

I know you're an adult, but sleep at home.

I'll change the door password if you stay out again.

Don't say it like that.

Just tell me you were worried about me. And say it nicely.

The balcony stinks because of the big pile of recycling.

And we're out of clean towels.

And eggs!

You just want me to do the chores.

I just took out the recycling and cleaned the floor!

And stop drinking.

You used to come home after a night out, no matter how drunk you were.

Right? I was so good.

I always make sure to come home, so why...

You can't go.

What's wrong? You're scaring me.

- Huh? - What?

- Huh? - Huh?

- Huh? - Hmm?

Looks like your memory's back.

It already smells amazing.

- Right? - Yeah.

- Thank you. - Anytime.

So

I want you

to be the Guest Relations Officer for Ms. Son.

Isn't that for the Concierge Team?

As you know, we don't have a manual for the position.

So, all you have to do is build a good rapport

and provide the best service possible.

I'm not sure if I'll be good.

You know what I always say.

The best kind of service doesn't come from expertise.

It comes from the heart.

You'll do great.

Buying things for her is your main task

but more importantly

the public is too cold toward her.

And you're her fan.

I thought it'd be nice for her to be around someone who likes her.

I see.

You can fangirl in person.

Okay, got it.

Great.

I'll set up the basics

but ask her what else she needs and get them for her.

- Yes, sir. - If you have any questions

call the manager. This is his business card.

But remember

work is work.

Oh, yeah, of course.

Sure.

"EVERY PRODUCTION IS LIKE HER LAST FOR THE ROMANCE QUEEN OF 20 YEARS"

JEONG-A IS BACK ON SCREEN AFTER A LONG BREAK WITH THE NEW MOVIE

I'M A BIG READER LIKE SEON-HYE

MY FAVORITE WRITER IS MARGUERITE DURAS

I LIKE ENJOYING SOME WINE AND CHEESE AFTER WORK

SON JEONG-A'S CONTROVERSIAL AWARD SPEECH!

SHE'S NOTHING WITHOUT LOVE? CHECK OUT SON JEONG-A'S SPEECH

I feel most alive when I'm acting and when I'm in love.

And I've never been ashamed of my emotions.

I'm nothing without love.

My goal is to continue portraying different kinds of love in my acting.

Thank you.

ACTRESS OF THE YEAR, SON JEONG-A

Congratulations.

I see.

This was why it was controversial.

My gosh!

When did you two get here?

Loving your junior colleagues is also love!

What if you end up hating her at the end of this?

Rumors say she only talks to men.

- What? - What?

No way.

Don't you two have work to do?

Talking about celebrities is fun, huh?

This was the highlight of my day. Back to work!

I have an update for you.

One of the pop-up display cases is wobbly.

Should I call HOME and ask about repairs?

- Yeah, please do. - Okay.

Is it true that you use seasonal ingredients in the soup?

Oh, peas? Okay.

I'll book a table for two at 5:30 p.m. on the 2nd.

I'd like a table in a quiet section for us to talk, please.

Okay, thank you.

There's a 46% chance of rain in the afternoon.

I'll bring an umbrella, just in case.

A TABLE FOR TWO AT 5:30 P.M., PEA SOUP, PACK AN UMBRELLA

Check this out.

- Hey. - Hey.

What's Mr. Song doing?

No idea. Maybe he's started a new project?

You could say he's started the biggest project of his life.

You guys need to go to the hotel with a toolbox.

- The hotel? - One of the display cases is wobbly.

Check on all the furniture while you're there.

I'll go!

- I can do it. - You?

You don't need to do everything, but thanks!

No worries.

See you.

So, we don't need to go?

- Ui-yeong. - Tae-seop!

You came to fix it yourself?

Yeah, how are you?

I'm good.

Do you remember Ms. Son Jeong-a?

- Yeah. - I'm her manager at the hotel

or something like that now.

Really? I know you love her.

Yeah, so I'm a little on edge.

I've read all articles about her

and even studied her social media pages.

Her social media?

Do you use them?

Yeah.

How do I fix this?

It's like I'm looking through her drawers.

She's a foodie.

CAFE TOUR

My gosh.

You're surely having a lot of fun snooping around her drawers.

Ui-yeong is mostly in charge of purchasing ingredients for the hotel

so she's probably been to all the best restaurants in Seoul.

She won't be impressed with just any restaurant, then.

Should I find another place?

Close her drawers for now.

Look at this one first.

It keeps dragging on the floor.

Oh, right.

- Can I see it? - Yeah, I'll step aside.

Didn't you say it was expensive marble imported from Italy?

Yeah, could you hold it like this?

- Like this? - Yeah.

All good.

Are you that excited about the date?

It's our one-and-only first date.

I'm getting more excited now that I've planned so much.

Gosh.

WELCOME SON JEONG-A WE HOPE YOU A COMFORTABLE AND JOYFUL STAY

This should be enough.

One more thing, though.

I'm Lee Ui-yeong. I'll be helping you during your stay.

Nice to meet you. I'm Son Jeong-a.

Please look around and let me know anytime if you need anything.

Oh?

Wow, I've been reading this book.

You love this author, right?

I thought I'd prepare her newest book.

But you beat me.

I got it as soon as it was out.

I see.

Hotels usually prepare fresh flowers.

Did you purposely put a photo of them instead?

You're allergic to flowers.

ACTRESS OF THE YEAR, SON JEONG-A

MAYBE ALLERGIC TO POLLEN?

I've never told anyone that in fear that they'd think I was picky.

But you noticed before I told you.

So

what do you think about the rumor?

Do you think it's true?

Well...

Among the three guys

who do you think is my real love?

I believe

my role is to make your stay at our hotel

as comfortable and relaxing as possible.

Mr. Eun picked such a smart person for the job.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you.

Oh, and I always drink two cups of coffee per day.

But the coffee at the hotel is too bitter for me

so could you get me some more fruity beans?

I'll prepare some light-medium roast beans.

I'll probably also need a few more pajamas

and an extra humidifier, please.

Okay, noted.

PREPARE A DRIP COFFEE SET AND LIGHT-MEDIUM ROAST BEANS

Next, a drip set and light-medium roast beans.

Oh, no, I'd better get going.

We're closing soon.

- Hey. - What?

You're just a small stage director. Whiskey isn't your thing.

Are you here to say something?

You saw right through me.

You know the performance this weekend?

Yeah, it's for Seungbo Group, the theater's sponsor company, right?

I need you to perform.

Se-hyeon had to go to his hometown becauase his mother is ill.

What happened to her?

She's just really ill.

See you at the rehearsal tomorrow.

- You're leaving already? - Yeah.

The whiskey tastes too fancy.

Okay, see you.

We're really closed... Oh?

Can I get some drip coffee? With fruity beans?

Sure, come in.

- Were you working until now? - Yeah, I had a lot to do.

Aren't you a bit hungry?

Mom, I'm grabbing a bite after working until late.

- Here. - I can't drink for a while.

Why not?

I have work tomorrow

and my mom's been unhappy with me.

By the way, are we allowed to eat here?

Of course. Should we play some music?

Sure, sounds good.

It's nice to have a friend who works at a cafe.

Hey

this is one of the three meals I've promised you, okay?

I can't believe you're keeping a tally.

This is nothing compared to what I've done for you.

No, you're clearly enjoying it. You got some sauce there.

And you were the one who volunteered.

You can't tell me to pay you back when you volunteeered.

I guess so.

You're right.

You got some on your face, too.

I'm not the type to be all up in anyone's business

but I can't stop being nosy around you.

See?

Don't do that to people. That could lead them on.

You're always so weirdly close.

I wouldn't exactly say

you're getting the wrong idea.

Huh?

You seem to think I don't mean anything

but we went on a blind date

even though I was filling in for someone else.

And we're becoming closer.

I've been having fun since the first day.

Don't you feel the same?

Hmm?

It's nothing serious.

You know

you make my life interesting these days.

Just keep eating.

Eat first, and take your time to digest it all.

How are you getting home?

I called a cab. It should be here soon.

I have to go to my rehearsal now.

- Get home safely. - Okay.

Let's grab another meal sometime.

Sure, bye.

See you.

What was that about?

Does he like me, or do I just make his life interesting?

SONG TAE-SEOP HAS REPLIED TO YOUR STORY

GOOD WORK TODAY. I CAN'T WAIT FOR SATURDAY. GOODNIGHT

Good work today.

I can't wait for Saturday.

Goodnight.

LEE UI-YEONG

Thanks, goodnight to you, too.

See you soon!

- Come in. - Okay.

- I'm just on the phone. - Okay.

Hey.

What about the casting?

Why would you do something I didn't even ask for?

The performance is just for the employees.

I'm the wife of the CEO. Can't you be more supportive?

Whatever. I can't go.

Dr. Shin's coming tomorrow.

I need to have a long talk with him.

It's already giving me a headache. Just send me the address.

Okay, will do.

I just have a favor to ask you.

Sure, what is it?

Could you bring a bouquet to an address I give you tomorrow?

It's an important show, but I can't go.

And...

- this is the card for the bouquet. - Okay.

No need to watch the show. Just deliver the bouquet for me.

Okay, then.

And I'd like to invite a friend here for dinner tomorrow.

How many of them?

Just one.

He'll arrive at the hotel around 7 p.m.

Could you prepare something Western that goes with wine?

Sure, we'll prepare the dinner as soon as your guest arrives.

He'll also be sleeping over.

Please make sure the security is extra strong.

Okay, will do.

Should we have gotten two?

Will this be enough?

Your uncle isn't that greedy with food. Or anything, for that matter.

Are you sure he's not greedy?

Is this the wrong house?

Wet wipes.

Hydrogen peroxide.

Band-aids. Are you going to a boot camp?

Blanket.

Are you sure you're going on a date?

I don't know what might happen on the date.

And they're all useful to have, anyway.

Sua, go wash your hands. Let's eat the pizza.

Okay.

I've never seen a guy prepare so much for a date.

Are you nervous or just crazy?

I'm just excited.

Dad! Look at this!

A timetable?

PICK UP EUI-YEONG AT 5 P.M.

DINNER FROM 5:30 TO 7 P.M. COFFEE FROM 7 TO 7:30 P.M.

This isn't a dream, is it?

I thought guys like him only existed in dreams.

Sua, can you help me pick out my outfit after we eat?

Sure.

Sua, I'm better than him, right?

Not a chance. He's a million times better.

Hey, that hurts!

Sorry, I thought it was a dream. Keep eating.

DEUKGEUN DEUKGEUN GYM

DEUKGEUN DEUKGEUN GYM

Isn't it so hot today?

That just proves we worked really hard today.

No, I think the air conditioners are broken.

What are you talking about? We just fixed them.

What? They're really not working.

See?

It would've been cheaper to get new ones at this point!

Hello?

Hi, Hyun-min.

Seung-jun! I'm off early today. We can meet earlier.

But my gym's air conditioners are broken. I need to fix them...

I don't think I can leave the gym.

Oh, no.

Isn't it too hot in there without air conditioning?

Yeah, it feels like a sauna.

Gosh, I can't even breathe.

Let me fix this and get back to you.

- Okay. - I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

DEUKGEUN DEUKGEUN GYM

It's too hot, right? I'm so sorry.

Sorry. Here's a fresh towel.

Sorry, it's too hot, isn't it?

- I know it's hot. - Here's a towel.

Here's a towel.

It feels like a boot camp here.

Even my underwear is drenched.

Sorry.

Don't push yourself too hard.

I'll give you an extention on your pass. Sorry.

Let's cool down.

Hyun-min!

- It's hot, right? Here. - Thank you.

Which one would you like?

Thank you.

Wait.

You look familiar.

Don't we know each other from somewhere?

- Well... - Don’t worry about your membership.

I'm not sure.

That's a bit much.

- No, that's not it. - Seriously.

It's a lot of sweat.

Let me give you an extra towel.

Thanks.

I'm out!

Okay, see you.

CLOSED OVER THE WEEKEND TO FIX THE AIR CONDITIONERS

Seung-jun! Take a break.

Sure.

He's so hard-working.

Here.

Thanks for today.

How did you know to come here?

It's written right on your shirt. "Deukgeun Deukgeun."

I can still remember you taking that shirt off.

You're a sicko.

But you like them.

Is that strawberry-flavored?

Let me have a bite.

It's still a date...

Something bright.

Let's see.

No, if I dress up too much

I'll look like a rookie.

How about this one? Or this?

Or jeans?

Alright.

Perfect.

This looks casual but nice.

MEORU ART CENTER

Thank you.

- Enjoy the show. - Thank you.

- Here. - Hello.

- Enjoy the show. - Thank you.

- Hello. - Could you deliver these to someone?

Of course, you can leave it with me, and I'll give it to the person.

Who is it for?

Oh, give me a sec.

DEAR JI-SU, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SHOW

Ji-su?

Oh, you mean Mr. Shin Ji-su?

Oh...

Yeah, Mr. Shin Ji-su.

Okay.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Hello, may I see your tickets?

- Enjoy the show. - Thank you.

Thank you.

THE SEAGULL

THE SEAGULL

So, he knows Jeong-a?

Is it...

MS. S, THE QUEEN OF ROMANCE, IS THE QUEEN OF SCANDALS?

THE QUEEN'S MANY MEN...

"She's in a common-law relationship with Dr. A, a surgeon who had a wife

but has an affair with Mr. B, a director, at a hotel

while being a sugar mommy to a model."

THE SCANDAL IS ONLY GROWING WITH HER COMPLICATED DATING LIFE

Hey, Ui-yeong.

Your hairstyle's changed.

And where are your glasses?

I thought I'd dress up a bit.

It's our first date, after all.

I should've dressed up more, too.

You look as beautiful as always.

"As always"?

Ready for dinner?

I found a restaurant nearby.

A one-star Michelin chef recently opened it.

It's closed.

UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAD TO CLOSE DUE TO A DEATH IN THE CHEF'S FAMILY

Oh, they're closed...

I also prepared an alternative, just in case.

It's a five-minute walk.

I didn't book a table, but it's still early

so I'm sure we can get a seat.

Ms. Lee Ui-jin?

- Is Ms. Lee Ui-jin here? - Here!

You can come in.

We're going to be late for the movie

if we wait for a table here.

Oh, then...

Well...

Tae-seop

I know it's not a romantic place

but I have a favorite restaurant nearby.

You want to go there with me?

That sounds good.

Okay.

- The table's a bit wobbly, right? - Yeah.

Be careful, it's hot.

Thank you.

- Careful. - Thank you.

You can move tables if it bothers you.

No, it's fine.

I can't believe I'm here with you.

I'm only ever here with my colleagues because there's a client nearby.

I see.

This looks great.

Let's eat.

Huh?

Oh, this stops me from burning my tongue

and lets me eat faster.

I see.

Like this.

Watch out.

Thank you.

Go on. Try it.

- It's amazing. - Right?

I'm glad you like it.

It's so good.

Thank you.

Oh, hold on a sec.

Great.

- All good. - All good.

You're pretty good at that.

It's nothing.

No, it was impressive.

How did you start designing furniture?

My family didn't have a dining table for some time

because we suddenly became poor.

But it wasn't just the table that was taken from us.

We stopped eating together

or talking to each other. We became distant from each other.

That was when I realized furniture wasn't just an object.

It was from that point on that I realized it was so important.

And I wanted to do something important because I was in my twenties.

I see.

I worked nonstop since starting my business.

How were you in your twenties?

You're so bubbly. You must've been so social.

No, I only had a handful.

I wasn't well-off in my younger years, either

so I only ever thought about myself.

I thought everyone should live a hard life because I was living one.

I didn't know you ever had a hard time.

I don't have all that many fond memories.

I never went on any trips

and rejected every guy, saying I didn't have time to date.

I see. That's okay.

You can enjoy all of that now.

That's right.

That's why I like how things are now.

I'm glad we met now.

Humans are funny.

But I want to trust him one more time.

Why are you crying?

Are you that sad?

No, it's my eyes.

Do they hurt?

Let's get out.

Even after having been betrayed once

I can't help but give him another chance.

- Are you alright? - Yeah.

I'm not used to wearing contact lenses.

I think something got in my eye. It stings.

It looks pretty serious.

It's really red. Look at me.

What? No...

Let me look.

This won't do. Take your lenses out first.

Are you better?

Did you take them out? How is it?

Much better.

Should we head back in?

Where?

You can't even see anything.

Let's watch it another time. You should go home.

No, I can't.

We have to watch the movie today.

But you can't even see properly.

Then...

Oh, do you want to watch it at my house?

Your house?

No, I don't mean it like that.

I just don't want to say "Next time" again.

Oh.

Should we get some popcorn, too?

Yeah.

Oh.

Hold my arm and follow me.

Okay.

The chauffeur should be here soon.

Sorry. I have a license, but I've never driven a car.

It's okay.

Oh?

I love this song.

- Same. - Really?

Bravo!

You were amazing!

- Good work today. - You too.

- Good work. - You too.

- Good job. - Good work!

- Congrats! - Good job.

Ji-su, this is for you.

Don't forget it.

Okay.

Congratulations on your show.

I have big news for you.

Please meet me at The Hills.

MEORU ART CENTER

Mr. Shin.

I'm Kim Ji-yeong, a reporter for Daily N.

You're the model mentioned in the rumor about Ms. Son, right?

How do you know Ms. Son?

I have nothing to do with her. Please never approach me again.

We've confirmed that the biggest sponsor for the theater is Seungbo Group.

The wife of the Group's CEO is

Ms. Son's best friend. Did you know that?

I hear she's far more than an advisor

when it comes to investing in the arts.

What?

I'm just wondering

if you maybe made a deal with her

in exchange for this sponsorship.

That was so awesome.

Hey!

Ji-su! What are you doing?

- You bastard! - Are you crazy?

You asked me get on stage on purpose.

Yeah, how else?

You know that's not what I mean.

You've been paying me with the money you get from Jeong-a!

How could you insult me like this?

The CEO's wife is sponsoring us because she loves our show.

Yeah? Why would they invest in a show that doesn't turn a profit?

And the wife's never even come to watch our show.

Stop acting like an arrogant and childish bastard.

It's not about paying you.

It's about paying the rent, the cast

for the stage outfits, food, and props!

We've dedicated our lives to this

and we'll do anything to perform.

This underground shelter you seek is

the most desperate stage for us!

If you're going to be this uncommitted, just quit.

Fine, I will.

Come on, don't be like that.

I quit.

He can't really quit like that!

I'm heading to the hotel right now.

Let me just get my glasses.

Make yourself at home on the couch.

Okay.

It's sparkling clean.

TIMETABLE

PICK UP EUI-YEONG AT 5 P.M.

DINNER FROM 5:30 TO 7 P.M. COFFEE FROM 7 TO 7:30 P.M.

MOVIE FOR 90 MINUTES

Oh!

You planned out the whole night?

But...

nothing went as planned.

No.

But

I still had fun.

Feel free to look around if you're bored.

Oh, sure.

Wait.

Do you want a drink?

I have water, sparkling water, cola, and green tea. What would you like?

I'll have some cold water, please.

Wake up.

What kind of movies do you like?

Anything but horror, really.

Are you scared of horror movies?

They're so bad for my heart.

Are you okay with horror movies?

I can watch them.

When I was younger, my dad said ghosts weren't scary.

He said people were scarier.

I haven't been scared of ghosts since.

That's a great comment.

I hear that one is good.

- This? - Yeah.

Should I...

turn off the lights?

Oh, right.

Sure.

This will dry out your hands. Moisturize them often.

You have to keep them soft.

That's really nice.

Hey...

Ui-yeong.

Yeah?

I have something to tell you.

- Hey. - Mom!

Oh, my.

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

Oh, gosh! What do I do?

I'm so sorry!

No, it's fine.

Nice to meet you.

Hello.

Huh?

Hey! You always eat at my restaurant.

Ma'am!

His father was right. Humans are the scariest.

THE PRACTICAL GUIDE TO LOVE

IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE

THE BIGGEST PROJECT OF HIS LIFE!

CAN'T STOP BEING NOSY AROUND YOU

I'M GLAD WE MET NOW

THE MEANING OF YOU

SHOULD I TURN OFF THE LIGHTS?

Dating is different now.

In our 20s, it was just about us two being in love.

Oh, gosh!

Man, I can't stop thinking about it.

If you aren't pretending to read the book while spying on me

why are you still reading the table of contents?

Your mom seems to be curious about how things are going with Ui-yeong.

People will want to know about you once the news is out.

Reporters will chase you everywhere, too.

Move abroad for school.

Whatever it is...

Stand for what you love.

I want

to fall in love with you.
