{\an8}CHAPTER 50:
A CLASSIC, NOT A CLICHÉ

00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:46,964
{\an8}He really did.

4
00:00:49,091 --> 00:00:50,634
How's this one?

5
00:00:50,718 --> 00:00:51,552
<i>No.</i>

6
00:00:52,553 --> 00:00:53,387
Then this one?

7
00:00:56,807 --> 00:00:59,435
<i>The problem is</i>
<i>we don't know what he likes.</i>

8
00:00:59,518 --> 00:01:01,270
<i>Does he like sweet or sexy?</i>

9
00:01:02,980 --> 00:01:05,232
<i>I think he probably likes sweet and sexy.</i>

10
00:01:05,941 --> 00:01:07,485
<i>He looks kind of greedy, right?</i>

11
00:01:08,402 --> 00:01:09,528
Oh, wait a second.

12
00:01:10,029 --> 00:01:12,323
VIDEO CHATTING
EUI-JU, GO-YA

13
00:01:12,406 --> 00:01:13,574
Huh?

14
00:01:15,576 --> 00:01:16,410
<i>Ta-da.</i>

15
00:01:17,953 --> 00:01:19,121
Are you for real?

16
00:01:19,955 --> 00:01:20,790
Then again,

17
00:01:21,582 --> 00:01:23,834
this won't cut it, right?

18
00:01:23,918 --> 00:01:25,127
Not for our first date.

19
00:01:26,378 --> 00:01:27,213
<i>Eui-ju.</i>

20
00:01:28,130 --> 00:01:28,964
Yes, sir?

21
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,841
Are you free this Saturday?

22
00:01:32,635 --> 00:01:35,054
What does he want to say to me

23
00:01:35,137 --> 00:01:37,973
that he suggested a private meeting
on the weekend?

24
00:01:40,392 --> 00:01:41,852
Oh, my.

25
00:01:43,896 --> 00:01:45,940
So what should I wear?

26
00:01:49,235 --> 00:01:52,071
{\an8}Why is it still only Thursday?

27
00:01:56,492 --> 00:01:58,369
{\an8}Why is it still only Friday?

28
00:02:00,871 --> 00:02:03,624
{\an8}It's finally tomorrow.

29
00:02:03,707 --> 00:02:06,710
{\an8}Why is time going so slowly?

30
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:22,476
{\an8}Welcome.

{\an8}EPISODE 16

32
00:02:23,477 --> 00:02:24,520
{\an8}Do you have a reservation?

33
00:02:24,603 --> 00:02:26,063
{\an8}Yes, I believe so.

34
00:02:26,146 --> 00:02:27,523
{\an8}What name is it in?

35
00:02:27,606 --> 00:02:28,649
{\an8}Ga Woo-su.

36
00:02:31,193 --> 00:02:32,653
{\an8}I don't see one in that name.

37
00:02:34,697 --> 00:02:36,407
{\an8}Then, Yeo Eui-ju?

38
00:02:38,701 --> 00:02:39,952
{\an8}Not in that one either.

39
00:02:41,370 --> 00:02:42,538
{\an8}Then, a table for two, please.

40
00:02:42,621 --> 00:02:44,540
{\an8}-Yes, please follow me.
-Yes.

41
00:02:51,797 --> 00:02:53,799
{\an8}-Can I get you some water?
-Sure.

42
00:02:57,136 --> 00:02:59,138
-Please let me know if you need anything.
-Okay.

43
00:03:05,227 --> 00:03:07,563
<i>What do I do? I'm so freaking nervous.</i>

44
00:03:08,147 --> 00:03:10,316
<i>Don't show it too much.</i>
<i>It's not a good look.</i>

45
00:03:11,692 --> 00:03:13,485
<i>Don't forget to order cream pasta, okay?</i>

46
00:03:14,111 --> 00:03:15,821
<i>That's such a cliché.</i>

47
00:03:17,197 --> 00:03:18,949
<i>It's a classic, not a cliché.</i>

48
00:03:19,033 --> 00:03:20,367
<i>Just trust me and try it.</i>

49
00:03:31,337 --> 00:03:32,713
Welcome.

50
00:03:54,902 --> 00:03:57,655
I guess he invited us so we can make up.

51
00:03:59,198 --> 00:04:00,157
I guess so.

52
00:04:07,289 --> 00:04:08,332
Welcome.

53
00:04:08,832 --> 00:04:09,750
You got here early.

54
00:04:09,833 --> 00:04:12,419
-Do you have a reservation?
-Yes, after-school for 12 people.

55
00:04:13,212 --> 00:04:14,922
I don't have one for after-school,

56
00:04:15,005 --> 00:04:16,548
but I have one for Actors' School.

57
00:04:16,632 --> 00:04:18,467
No, after-school. After.

58
00:04:19,593 --> 00:04:21,845
-Anyhow, it's for 12 people, right?
-Yes.

59
00:04:21,929 --> 00:04:24,014
It's that table over there.

60
00:04:24,098 --> 00:04:25,224
What are you doing there?

61
00:04:30,980 --> 00:04:32,106
Look at this place.

62
00:04:33,065 --> 00:04:33,899
Enjoy.

63
00:04:33,983 --> 00:04:35,567
-Amazing.
-Oh, what's that?

64
00:04:35,651 --> 00:04:37,361
-Looks great.
-Thank you.

65
00:04:37,444 --> 00:04:38,696
-It looks so good.
-I can't wait.

66
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:40,864
You all worked really hard.

67
00:04:41,740 --> 00:04:42,574
Shall we toast?

68
00:04:42,658 --> 00:04:43,575
-Yes, sir.
-Sounds good.

69
00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:45,119
Great job.

70
00:04:45,202 --> 00:04:46,870
-Thank you!
-Thank you!

71
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,249
Why are you two so dressed up today?

72
00:04:50,332 --> 00:04:52,084
I know, why are you looking so cute?

73
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,294
It's the weekend.

74
00:04:55,671 --> 00:04:57,256
Awesome.

75
00:05:03,929 --> 00:05:05,139
It's so delicious, sir.

76
00:05:05,973 --> 00:05:08,350
{\an8}<i>How's the date going? Send me a pic.</i>

77
00:05:09,268 --> 00:05:11,228
Sir, can I have some of this?

78
00:05:11,311 --> 00:05:13,147
-Sure, dig in.
-Yes!

79
00:05:13,230 --> 00:05:14,648
-Is it good?
-I want some too.

80
00:05:14,732 --> 00:05:18,610
Let's get a group pic for the memories.

81
00:05:18,694 --> 00:05:20,738
-Great!
-Good idea.

82
00:05:20,821 --> 00:05:21,905
-Let's do it.
-Yeah.

83
00:05:21,989 --> 00:05:23,240
We have to for sure.

84
00:05:26,535 --> 00:05:27,536
Hey, I'm barely in the photo.

85
00:05:27,619 --> 00:05:30,581
One, two, three.

86
00:05:30,664 --> 00:05:33,792
WITH MR. GA
AFTER-SCHOOL MATH FINISHED

87
00:06:26,970 --> 00:06:27,930
Dong-ju.

88
00:06:30,349 --> 00:06:31,350
Hey, Dong-ju.

89
00:06:33,435 --> 00:06:34,269
What's up?

90
00:06:37,231 --> 00:06:38,148
I can't see.

91
00:06:38,857 --> 00:06:39,733
What?

92
00:06:41,902 --> 00:06:42,736
Take me to the hospital.

93
00:06:43,821 --> 00:06:45,280
Okay, just a moment.

94
00:06:46,532 --> 00:06:48,700
Hey, Gi-jeon. Wake up.

95
00:06:48,784 --> 00:06:50,035
What is it?

96
00:06:50,119 --> 00:06:50,953
Woo-su isn't well.

97
00:07:06,635 --> 00:07:07,719
I can't see anything.

98
00:07:15,310 --> 00:07:18,397
I see you had a full-thickness
corneal transplant in your right eye.

99
00:07:20,107 --> 00:07:20,941
Yes.

100
00:07:21,024 --> 00:07:25,696
{\an8}The only thing we can try is
a deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty.

101
00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:28,407
{\an8}This surgery keeps the endothelium intact

102
00:07:28,490 --> 00:07:30,367
while replacing the rest
in a partial transplant.

103
00:07:34,496 --> 00:07:35,622
Hasn't it been ten years?

104
00:07:36,748 --> 00:07:38,584
He's been fine with no after effects.

105
00:07:38,667 --> 00:07:39,710
I know.

106
00:07:41,295 --> 00:07:42,629
I thought everything was fine too.

107
00:07:43,255 --> 00:07:44,381
Why now?

108
00:07:48,343 --> 00:07:49,178
Hey.

109
00:07:49,970 --> 00:07:50,804
Are you

110
00:07:52,306 --> 00:07:53,265
crying?

111
00:07:54,850 --> 00:07:56,143
What do we do with that idiot?

112
00:07:57,269 --> 00:08:00,189
I knew this would happen when he started
staying up all night reading papers.

113
00:08:01,148 --> 00:08:02,649
I just knew it, damn it.

114
00:08:02,733 --> 00:08:05,152
Why didn't he listen to me
and insisted on becoming a teacher?

115
00:08:05,235 --> 00:08:07,070
He had to give up
his beloved research too.

116
00:08:07,154 --> 00:08:09,239
This whole time, I've been terrified
that this would happen.

117
00:08:10,908 --> 00:08:12,117
He'll be fine.

118
00:08:13,660 --> 00:08:15,621
What happened to teasing
and scrapping with him?

119
00:08:15,704 --> 00:08:17,122
You know

120
00:08:17,206 --> 00:08:18,957
how much Da-ju cares about Woo-su.

121
00:08:20,417 --> 00:08:21,752
TREATMENT ROOM 1

122
00:08:28,175 --> 00:08:29,968
-Take him up to admissions.
-Okay.

123
00:08:32,012 --> 00:08:32,930
Are you okay?

124
00:08:33,639 --> 00:08:34,473
Yeah.

125
00:08:35,224 --> 00:08:36,308
What did they say?

126
00:08:36,934 --> 00:08:38,435
You dumb idiot!

127
00:08:39,102 --> 00:08:41,897
What kind of a perfectionist know-it-all
can't take care of one eye?

128
00:08:41,980 --> 00:08:45,025
You had the time and energy
to nag at everyone else

129
00:08:45,108 --> 00:08:47,152
but couldn't handle your one job, asshole?

130
00:08:48,820 --> 00:08:50,239
He gets it too, okay?

131
00:08:50,822 --> 00:08:52,074
I've decided to get surgery.

132
00:08:53,992 --> 00:08:56,036
Will that fix things?

133
00:08:57,955 --> 00:08:59,915
<i>To be perfectly frank,</i>

134
00:08:59,998 --> 00:09:03,627
{\an8}the likelihood of your eyesight
returning to what it was before

135
00:09:04,544 --> 00:09:05,754
{\an8}is 50-50.

136
00:09:07,756 --> 00:09:11,468
Your cornea is so thin
that the circumstances aren't favorable.

137
00:09:13,387 --> 00:09:16,139
{\an8}Make sure you don't push yourself
before the surgery.

138
00:09:16,223 --> 00:09:17,391
Just rest whenever possible.

139
00:09:18,767 --> 00:09:20,644
I'm going to be admitted

140
00:09:20,727 --> 00:09:22,604
while they assess
whether they can do the surgery.

141
00:09:24,564 --> 00:09:26,400
So stop making a scene and just go home.

142
00:09:26,483 --> 00:09:27,859
Let's go get you admitted.

143
00:09:41,415 --> 00:09:43,792
-Good morning.
-Good morning.

144
00:09:43,875 --> 00:09:45,627
-Good morning.
-Good morning.

145
00:09:45,711 --> 00:09:46,670
Good morning.

146
00:09:47,671 --> 00:09:49,506
Mr. Ga is having trouble with his eyesight

147
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:51,508
and won't be able to come to school
for the time being.

148
00:09:52,134 --> 00:09:53,760
I'll be covering for him.

149
00:09:54,469 --> 00:09:56,054
Let's start with roll call.

150
00:09:57,431 --> 00:09:58,974
Sir.

151
00:09:59,057 --> 00:10:00,767
How bad is it?

152
00:10:00,851 --> 00:10:02,269
What happened?

153
00:10:04,271 --> 00:10:07,607
You once said that if he overdoes it,
he could risk his other eye.

154
00:10:07,691 --> 00:10:08,859
What did you mean by that?

155
00:10:09,443 --> 00:10:11,278
If he can't come to school
for the time being,

156
00:10:11,361 --> 00:10:12,821
does that mean he's in the hospital?

157
00:10:12,904 --> 00:10:14,656
How long is he going to be there?

158
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:18,577
Don't you have class, Eui-ju?

159
00:10:19,995 --> 00:10:21,997
Which hospital is he at?

160
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,292
Just tell me. You can tell me that much.

161
00:10:28,837 --> 00:10:30,589
Although your cornea is thin,

162
00:10:30,672 --> 00:10:33,884
it shouldn't prevent us
proceeding with the surgery.

163
00:10:33,967 --> 00:10:37,888
After the surgery, the corneal refraction
and others will show improvement.

164
00:10:47,814 --> 00:10:48,648
Hey.

165
00:10:49,733 --> 00:10:51,068
Are you freaking out?

166
00:10:51,151 --> 00:10:52,319
Why would I be?

167
00:10:53,528 --> 00:10:54,863
You looked like you were dying,

168
00:10:55,489 --> 00:10:56,531
but you seem fine now.

169
00:10:58,367 --> 00:10:59,785
Since you're getting surgery anyway,

170
00:10:59,868 --> 00:11:02,162
can't they do an eye tuck too
to clear your field of vision?

171
00:11:04,539 --> 00:11:06,792
There's no surgery for personality, right?

172
00:11:12,756 --> 00:11:14,424
You are freaking out, dude.

173
00:11:15,801 --> 00:11:16,718
Good luck.

174
00:11:16,802 --> 00:11:18,512
See you later, glasses monkey.

175
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:20,889
You're not wearing glasses.

176
00:11:20,972 --> 00:11:21,932
Later, monkey.

177
00:11:23,683 --> 00:11:24,559
You're okay, right?

178
00:11:26,937 --> 00:11:27,979
Good luck.

179
00:11:28,814 --> 00:11:29,981
We'll head in now.

180
00:11:31,650 --> 00:11:32,651
See you.

181
00:11:32,734 --> 00:11:34,528
Hey, no tears, okay?

182
00:11:36,822 --> 00:11:37,781
Gosh, what a dork.

183
00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:54,423
-What the heck?
-Hey!

184
00:11:55,132 --> 00:11:56,842
Hey, Eui-ju. Where are you going?

185
00:11:56,925 --> 00:11:58,218
What the heck? Did you see that?

186
00:11:58,802 --> 00:12:01,304
<i>He asked me not to say anything</i>
<i>until the surgery was over.</i>

187
00:12:01,972 --> 00:12:04,850
<i>He didn't want to tell you</i>
<i>for fear you'd worry.</i>

188
00:12:04,933 --> 00:12:06,518
<i>He's in Hana University Medical Center.</i>

189
00:12:13,233 --> 00:12:17,070
Fortunately, the surgery
went better than expected.

190
00:12:17,654 --> 00:12:19,698
Are you in any discomfort?

191
00:12:20,282 --> 00:12:21,658
No, I feel fine.

192
00:12:23,118 --> 00:12:25,704
When will I be able to read again?

193
00:12:26,288 --> 00:12:29,166
It'll probably feel a bit uncomfortable,

194
00:12:29,249 --> 00:12:31,751
but you should be able to read
in about a week.

195
00:12:31,835 --> 00:12:33,920
To be able to see without any discomfort,

196
00:12:34,004 --> 00:12:36,756
you will probably need
about three or four weeks.

197
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,091
I see. Thank you.

198
00:12:38,842 --> 00:12:40,260
Now all you have to do is recover.

199
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,327
Eui-ju, you left early without permission.
Two demerits.

200
00:13:15,420 --> 00:13:16,421
Mr. Ga.

201
00:13:17,130 --> 00:13:18,548
Are you okay?

202
00:13:22,719 --> 00:13:24,763
I asked if you're okay.

203
00:13:27,015 --> 00:13:28,934
About that nonsense
absolute-value problem.

204
00:13:32,020 --> 00:13:33,480
My answer is…

205
00:13:38,735 --> 00:13:40,362
a promise from ten years ago.

206
00:13:51,122 --> 00:13:52,749
Are you in a lot of pain?

207
00:13:56,378 --> 00:13:57,212
{\an8}YEO EUI-JU

208
00:13:57,295 --> 00:14:01,591
My mom said if I get this wrong again,

209
00:14:01,675 --> 00:14:05,554
she won't let me watch <i>Pichi Pichi Pichi.</i>

210
00:14:09,057 --> 00:14:10,433
Hold your fingers out.

211
00:14:11,851 --> 00:14:14,646
To get 12, you need 2 more fingers
on top of these 10 fingers.

212
00:14:14,729 --> 00:14:17,232
One, two, three, four, five…

213
00:14:18,567 --> 00:14:20,193
-Seven.
-Correct.

214
00:14:20,735 --> 00:14:22,862
Don't try to subtract
from the ones column.

215
00:14:22,946 --> 00:14:25,574
Think of it as subtracting
from the entire two-digit number.

216
00:14:25,657 --> 00:14:30,870
Then the tens column is helping
the ones column, like friends.

217
00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:31,871
What a nice friend.

218
00:14:32,914 --> 00:14:33,748
<i>Right.</i>

219
00:14:33,832 --> 00:14:35,083
<i>Shall we solve another one?</i>

220
00:14:35,166 --> 00:14:38,128
<i>Hey, I might just be a genius.</i>

221
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:39,796
<i>Math is so easy.</i>

222
00:14:41,298 --> 00:14:45,343
Next time I see you,
I'll show you my perfect score.

223
00:14:45,969 --> 00:14:47,053
I promise.

224
00:14:58,690 --> 00:15:00,609
But what did you say to me
when we met after ten years?

225
00:15:01,276 --> 00:15:02,360
Yeo Eui-ju?

226
00:15:03,695 --> 00:15:05,322
-Yeo Eui-ju!
-Here!

227
00:15:06,698 --> 00:15:07,657
Four points, sir.

228
00:15:08,658 --> 00:15:09,659
Four points in math?

229
00:15:12,078 --> 00:15:13,538
You just hate math?

230
00:15:14,706 --> 00:15:17,751
Do you know how hard I worked
to see you keep that promise?

231
00:15:20,420 --> 00:15:25,425
Wow, it seems some people
are just destined to meet.

232
00:15:26,176 --> 00:15:27,886
It's fate.

233
00:15:27,969 --> 00:15:29,095
What?

234
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,514
Nothing.

235
00:15:32,599 --> 00:15:33,808
Never mind.

236
00:15:33,892 --> 00:15:35,644
I remember now.

237
00:15:35,727 --> 00:15:38,271
So you were that cute guy
who was good at math.

238
00:15:38,897 --> 00:15:40,106
Wow.

239
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:41,775
Now you remember?

240
00:15:42,776 --> 00:15:44,027
So? I bet that left you speechless.

241
00:15:44,110 --> 00:15:45,111
Just a minute.

242
00:15:45,904 --> 00:15:47,113
Then,

243
00:15:47,197 --> 00:15:50,617
since I met you when I was eight,

244
00:15:51,660 --> 00:15:54,537
that means you met me way before Deul-i.

245
00:15:54,621 --> 00:15:55,497
What?

246
00:15:56,539 --> 00:15:57,999
Score one for me.

247
00:15:59,709 --> 00:16:00,835
You really are something.

248
00:16:03,588 --> 00:16:04,839
So,

249
00:16:04,923 --> 00:16:06,257
isn't she coming to see you?

250
00:16:06,841 --> 00:16:07,842
Why would she?

251
00:16:07,926 --> 00:16:10,887
Aren't you two dating?

252
00:16:11,471 --> 00:16:12,764
As if. We're just friends.

253
00:16:13,431 --> 00:16:14,641
I don't think so.

254
00:16:14,724 --> 00:16:17,268
You look completely different
when you're with her.

255
00:16:17,352 --> 00:16:20,188
You smile a lot, and sweetly too.

256
00:16:20,855 --> 00:16:22,941
So you don't smile
when you're with your friends?

257
00:16:23,900 --> 00:16:25,193
I guess that makes sense.

258
00:16:26,903 --> 00:16:28,655
Then, can I

259
00:16:28,738 --> 00:16:30,448
still have some hope?

260
00:16:31,032 --> 00:16:31,908
For what?

261
00:16:33,702 --> 00:16:34,536
Never mind.

262
00:16:35,662 --> 00:16:37,122
Get well soon, sir.

263
00:16:39,207 --> 00:16:40,542
Get out of here. I'm tired.

264
00:16:42,085 --> 00:16:43,169
Yes, sir.

265
00:16:45,046 --> 00:16:45,922
Goodbye.

266
00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:47,674
Eui-ju, can you put this down
before you go?

267
00:16:48,508 --> 00:16:49,759
Sure!

268
00:16:50,635 --> 00:16:51,761
I'm home.

269
00:16:52,846 --> 00:16:53,680
-Hey, Mom.
-Yeah?

270
00:16:53,763 --> 00:16:55,014
-Mom.
-What?

271
00:16:55,098 --> 00:16:56,516
Back in the day,

272
00:16:56,599 --> 00:17:00,311
when I went to the hospital in Seoul,
what hospital was I in?

273
00:17:00,895 --> 00:17:04,691
What in the world are you talking about?

274
00:17:04,774 --> 00:17:08,445
You know, when I went to the hospital
in Seoul back in first grade.

275
00:17:08,528 --> 00:17:10,655
Why would you go to the hospital?

276
00:17:10,739 --> 00:17:12,490
I am a pharmacist, you know.

277
00:17:12,574 --> 00:17:15,326
You've never been sick enough
to go to the hospital.

278
00:17:16,578 --> 00:17:18,371
Yes, I have.

279
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:22,542
Never?

280
00:17:23,251 --> 00:17:24,169
Never.

281
00:17:27,172 --> 00:17:29,382
Dad, have I never been to the hospital?

282
00:17:32,093 --> 00:17:32,927
Huh?

283
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:34,637
What the heck?

284
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,639
What was that then?

285
00:17:38,933 --> 00:17:40,393
Was it someone else?

286
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:45,523
<i>Mr. Ga, at a young age,</i>

287
00:17:45,607 --> 00:17:48,109
{\an8}you became famous
for being a math prodigy.

288
00:17:48,193 --> 00:17:49,736
{\an8}CHAPTER 51:
THE NONSENSE ABSOLUT VALUE

289
00:17:49,819 --> 00:17:52,447
{\an8}Is there a reason
you decided to become a teacher?

290
00:17:55,492 --> 00:17:57,952
Right before the second Math Olympiad,

291
00:17:58,036 --> 00:17:59,370
I decided to withdraw.

292
00:18:00,455 --> 00:18:02,499
Officially, it was because
of my worsening eyesight,

293
00:18:03,416 --> 00:18:05,543
but in truth, there was another reason.

294
00:18:05,627 --> 00:18:07,712
While I was over at the training camp,
I met this friend.

295
00:18:07,796 --> 00:18:09,172
GA WOO-SU
MATH TEACHER, MURIM GIRLS' HIGH

296
00:18:09,255 --> 00:18:11,216
<i>That person overslept</i>
<i>and was late every day.</i>

297
00:18:11,299 --> 00:18:13,927
<i>They were even caught reading comics</i>
<i>when we were solving problems.</i>

298
00:18:14,552 --> 00:18:18,473
<i>Watching them solve problems quickly,</i>
<i>even the ones I couldn't work out…</i>

299
00:18:18,556 --> 00:18:19,390
Bang.

300
00:18:19,474 --> 00:18:20,683
<i>…baffled me for the first time.</i>

301
00:18:22,727 --> 00:18:26,231
That person had incredible intuition
and obviously enjoyed math.

302
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:29,150
I realized I would meet
many similar people,

303
00:18:30,318 --> 00:18:32,445
and I suffered a crisis of confidence.

304
00:18:32,529 --> 00:18:34,197
<i>I was at a loss about my next step.</i>

305
00:18:35,156 --> 00:18:36,825
<i>After telling people I was dropping out,</i>

306
00:18:36,908 --> 00:18:38,868
I went to the hospital
to have surgery on my eye.

307
00:18:39,452 --> 00:18:42,413
And I ran into a little girl.

308
00:18:44,499 --> 00:18:46,251
<i>When I saw how her eyes shone,</i>

309
00:18:46,835 --> 00:18:48,670
<i>and how she jumped around in excitement,</i>

310
00:18:49,796 --> 00:18:53,299
<i>I was reminded of the moment</i>
<i>when math first sparked my interest.</i>

311
00:18:54,342 --> 00:18:55,844
<i>I had only ever learned before,</i>

312
00:18:56,469 --> 00:18:58,429
<i>and that was the first time I found joy</i>

313
00:18:59,180 --> 00:19:01,140
<i>in teaching someone else.</i>

314
00:19:03,017 --> 00:19:04,185
<i>Then, that little girl</i>

315
00:19:04,269 --> 00:19:06,479
must have gone on
to compete in the Olympiad like you

316
00:19:06,563 --> 00:19:09,190
and become really great at math.

317
00:19:11,693 --> 00:19:12,569
Well.

318
00:19:13,695 --> 00:19:15,738
Life doesn't always turn out
how you expect.

319
00:19:20,493 --> 00:19:21,619
She's lost it.

320
00:19:22,996 --> 00:19:24,038
<i>One final question.</i>

321
00:19:24,873 --> 00:19:28,334
What does math mean to you, Mr. Ga?

322
00:19:31,588 --> 00:19:33,965
TEACHERS' OFFICE

323
00:19:35,466 --> 00:19:36,467
<i>Math…</i>

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

325
00:19:41,723 --> 00:19:42,599
Good morning.

00:19:47,437 --> 00:19:49,564
<i>of constantly discovering my own limits.</i>

329
00:19:58,531 --> 00:19:59,365
Good morning.

330
00:19:59,449 --> 00:20:01,618
-Good morning.
-Good morning.

331
00:20:08,499 --> 00:20:10,168
{\an8}I got 55 points.

332
00:20:19,844 --> 00:20:22,388
Great job on making it through
another year of boring school.

333
00:20:22,472 --> 00:20:24,807
Yes, sir, we did do an amazing job.

334
00:20:24,891 --> 00:20:26,351
-Great job, everyone!
-Great job!

335
00:20:26,434 --> 00:20:28,561
-Guys, well done!
-Great job!

336
00:20:28,645 --> 00:20:31,105
-Good work.
-Great job!

337
00:20:31,189 --> 00:20:32,941
Now you're all seniors.

338
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:37,153
If you spend the vacation chilling,
you'll regret it come March.

339
00:20:37,862 --> 00:20:39,906
I'm not saying
you should do nothing but study.

340
00:20:39,989 --> 00:20:42,784
Take some time to figure out
what you like and dislike,

341
00:20:43,409 --> 00:20:45,536
what you're good at,
and what you want to do.

342
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:48,539
Check on yourself at all times
and get to know yourself better…

343
00:20:55,630 --> 00:20:56,589
and move forward.

344
00:21:01,552 --> 00:21:04,389
I hope you will walk the path
of your choice with confidence,

345
00:21:04,472 --> 00:21:06,474
regardless of what others say.

346
00:21:11,229 --> 00:21:12,355
You are

347
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:14,273
all…

348
00:21:16,693 --> 00:21:18,236
stars with your own light.

349
00:21:20,989 --> 00:21:22,281
-Oh, Mr. Ga.
-How sweet!

350
00:21:38,339 --> 00:21:39,382
Class dismissed.

351
00:21:40,425 --> 00:21:43,011
-Thank you.
-Thank you.

352
00:21:51,019 --> 00:21:52,020
{\an8}CHAPTER 52:
I'M GLAD WE MET

353
00:21:52,103 --> 00:21:54,397
{\an8}-What do you think?
-It's great.

354
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,692
{\an8}"You and I, our hearts so close."

355
00:21:58,484 --> 00:21:59,736
"Like orbiting stars,

356
00:22:00,486 --> 00:22:02,155
distant for a spell but close for ages."

357
00:22:03,865 --> 00:22:04,824
-What do you think?
-Wow.

358
00:22:04,907 --> 00:22:06,534
Eui-ju, Go-ya.

359
00:22:07,201 --> 00:22:09,120
-You two have talent.
-You guys killed it.

360
00:22:09,203 --> 00:22:10,872
-Props. Respect!
-It's amazing.

361
00:22:11,497 --> 00:22:12,623
-It's so cool.
-I love it.

362
00:22:12,707 --> 00:22:14,333
-The best.
-We did slay this.

363
00:22:14,876 --> 00:22:16,502
"Orbiting stars," that's totally us.

364
00:22:16,586 --> 00:22:19,255
-Yeah, for real.
-Oh, Eui-ju.

365
00:22:20,590 --> 00:22:23,092
I'll definitely come visit, okay?

366
00:22:23,176 --> 00:22:24,093
Make it soon.

367
00:22:24,177 --> 00:22:25,636
Got it. I'll be on the next plane.

368
00:22:27,305 --> 00:22:28,389
Jenny.

369
00:22:29,223 --> 00:22:30,641
Don't forget us.

370
00:22:32,435 --> 00:22:34,854
And don't leave the group chat, okay?

371
00:22:35,438 --> 00:22:37,940
I'm going to spam you
with emojis all the time.

372
00:22:38,024 --> 00:22:39,192
Please do.

373
00:22:41,819 --> 00:22:42,987
Take care, Jenny.

374
00:22:45,073 --> 00:22:47,909
Get yourself a boyfriend
before you come back.

375
00:22:50,203 --> 00:22:51,079
Okay.

376
00:22:51,162 --> 00:22:52,997
What's taking Eui-ju so long anyway?

377
00:22:53,498 --> 00:22:54,332
There she is now.

378
00:22:55,541 --> 00:22:56,834
-Get a move on!
-Hurry up!

379
00:22:56,918 --> 00:22:57,960
You're late!

380
00:22:58,044 --> 00:22:59,378
What took you so long?

381
00:22:59,462 --> 00:23:00,463
Ji-a said…

382
00:23:00,546 --> 00:23:03,549
she wanted to say bye to Jenny,
so I waited for her to get out of work.

383
00:23:03,633 --> 00:23:04,634
Hey, when did I say that?

384
00:23:04,717 --> 00:23:06,010
That's exactly what you said.

385
00:23:06,094 --> 00:23:07,595
Oh, Ji-a.

386
00:23:07,678 --> 00:23:09,013
Ji-a.

387
00:23:10,014 --> 00:23:12,183
I'll never get used to her energy level.

388
00:23:12,266 --> 00:23:13,351
So true.

389
00:23:13,434 --> 00:23:16,020
You guys are like cat and dog.

390
00:23:16,104 --> 00:23:16,979
Meow! Woof!

391
00:23:18,231 --> 00:23:20,566
I'm sorry for not being there for you.

392
00:23:21,067 --> 00:23:22,485
Take care over there.

393
00:23:22,568 --> 00:23:23,778
Here, eat this on the way.

394
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,782
Oh, my seatmate.

395
00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:32,036
-Seatmates.
-Thanks.

396
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:33,412
Jenny, I got you something too.

397
00:23:34,372 --> 00:23:36,499
Take care and don't forget us.

398
00:23:37,083 --> 00:23:37,917
Okay.

399
00:23:39,377 --> 00:23:40,294
Ta-da!

400
00:23:40,378 --> 00:23:43,381
A STAR FAR AWAY

401
00:23:45,174 --> 00:23:46,843
Awesome!

402
00:23:47,969 --> 00:23:49,095
Eui-ju.

403
00:23:52,181 --> 00:23:54,308
I'm gonna miss you.

404
00:23:54,851 --> 00:23:56,102
For sure.

405
00:24:05,945 --> 00:24:08,406
Hey, I'm over here!

406
00:24:09,574 --> 00:24:11,325
I'm over here.

407
00:24:13,244 --> 00:24:14,579
I love you!

408
00:24:15,204 --> 00:24:17,039
-She's going.
-Bye.

409
00:24:17,123 --> 00:24:18,875
-Bye, Jenny!
-Bye!

410
00:24:31,387 --> 00:24:33,639
<i>I'm glad we met.</i>

411
00:24:57,246 --> 00:24:59,290
<i>Thank you for welcoming me so warmly</i>

412
00:24:59,373 --> 00:25:02,251
<i>and giving me all these special memories.</i>

413
00:25:04,295 --> 00:25:05,213
I'll take a photo of you.

414
00:25:05,296 --> 00:25:06,631
-Good.
-Great.

415
00:25:06,714 --> 00:25:07,965
-Stand here.
-Korea's beautiful.

416
00:25:10,843 --> 00:25:12,428
-I like <i>tteokbokki</i>.
-You like it?

417
00:25:12,511 --> 00:25:15,056
-<i>Tteokbokki </i>is the main event.
-No, it's boring by itself.

418
00:25:15,139 --> 00:25:16,933
-No, that's the best part.
-I like <i>sundae</i> too.

419
00:25:17,016 --> 00:25:19,977
Or what about chicken and pizza?

420
00:25:20,061 --> 00:25:20,937
<i>Oh, right.</i>

421
00:25:21,020 --> 00:25:21,854
<i>As for my novel,</i>

422
00:25:21,938 --> 00:25:25,066
<i>thanks to the supportive readers</i>
<i>fervently hoping for its re-launch,</i>

423
00:25:25,149 --> 00:25:26,442
<i>I finished writing it</i>

424
00:25:27,235 --> 00:25:29,153
<i>and launched it officially.</i>

425
00:25:29,237 --> 00:25:31,530
<i>It hit a million downloads.</i>

426
00:25:32,365 --> 00:25:36,077
<i>I've finally become a mega-hit author.</i>

427
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,580
<i>Oh, you want to know how it ended?</i>

428
00:25:40,122 --> 00:25:43,292
WE WERE FRIENDS, FINAL EPISODE

429
00:25:54,595 --> 00:25:55,554
Fine, I get it.

430
00:25:56,430 --> 00:25:58,808
Now that I've finally realized
that you like Tae-ha,

431
00:25:59,725 --> 00:26:00,977
I'm done.

432
00:26:01,060 --> 00:26:02,520
Si-on.

433
00:26:03,479 --> 00:26:05,022
I said I'd have no regrets.

434
00:26:06,065 --> 00:26:07,066
But I do.

435
00:26:09,568 --> 00:26:11,279
I regret all the cruel words
I said to you.

436
00:26:11,362 --> 00:26:13,072
Thanks for everything, Yoon!

437
00:26:13,155 --> 00:26:15,324
Come on, it's not like
we won't see each other again.

438
00:26:15,408 --> 00:26:16,701
We won't.

439
00:26:16,784 --> 00:26:17,743
Today is the last time.

440
00:26:19,078 --> 00:26:20,121
Is that really necessary?

441
00:26:20,204 --> 00:26:22,748
Si-on, you were my everything
back in high school.

442
00:26:24,792 --> 00:26:26,127
I don't want to lose you.

443
00:26:31,007 --> 00:26:32,591
It definitely seems like I won.

444
00:26:33,217 --> 00:26:35,344
So why do I feel like crap?

445
00:26:35,803 --> 00:26:37,096
You think it's a competition?

446
00:26:37,179 --> 00:26:38,264
So what if you win?

447
00:26:38,347 --> 00:26:39,682
Do you get a medal or something?

448
00:26:40,975 --> 00:26:42,101
You little punk.

449
00:26:47,023 --> 00:26:48,190
Don't.

450
00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:54,155
I'm leaving.

451
00:26:54,947 --> 00:26:56,282
Si-on, wait.

452
00:26:56,365 --> 00:26:57,283
What the heck?

453
00:26:58,284 --> 00:26:59,744
There you all are.

454
00:27:01,412 --> 00:27:03,039
I've been looking for you forever.

455
00:27:03,122 --> 00:27:05,541
Let's all have a seat.

456
00:27:08,919 --> 00:27:11,672
What the heck?
What's with the strained atmosphere?

457
00:27:11,756 --> 00:27:13,549
Did someone die or something?

458
00:27:15,801 --> 00:27:17,470
I'm not in the mood for jokes.

459
00:27:18,512 --> 00:27:19,347
So you got dumped.

460
00:27:20,514 --> 00:27:21,682
You know…

461
00:27:22,933 --> 00:27:24,685
So you're just going to give up?

462
00:27:26,395 --> 00:27:27,271
I…

463
00:27:28,272 --> 00:27:29,774
refuse to give up on Yoon!

464
00:27:30,399 --> 00:27:31,484
Hey, Jae-min.

465
00:27:31,567 --> 00:27:33,444
What? What have you got to say?

466
00:27:33,527 --> 00:27:34,653
Damn it.

467
00:27:34,737 --> 00:27:36,113
Hey, Yoon.

468
00:27:36,197 --> 00:27:38,449
Are you really never going to
see Si-on again?

469
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,034
Of course you are.

470
00:27:40,117 --> 00:27:42,078
You too, Tae-ha.

471
00:27:42,161 --> 00:27:43,954
Can you be happy

472
00:27:44,038 --> 00:27:45,247
when Yoon is so sad?

473
00:27:55,716 --> 00:27:56,926
Let's all move in together!

474
00:27:58,886 --> 00:27:59,929
Huh?

475
00:28:00,513 --> 00:28:02,098
-All of us?
-It's no big deal.

476
00:28:03,349 --> 00:28:04,392
Let's all live together.

477
00:28:05,476 --> 00:28:08,020
You only truly get to know someone
after living together.

478
00:28:08,813 --> 00:28:09,647
That's how

479
00:28:11,107 --> 00:28:12,441
you get to see their true nature.

480
00:28:14,110 --> 00:28:16,654
Still, there's no need
for all of us to live together.

481
00:28:17,488 --> 00:28:18,739
Are you scared?

482
00:28:18,823 --> 00:28:19,657
Then butt out.

483
00:28:19,740 --> 00:28:20,991
Never!

484
00:28:22,618 --> 00:28:23,494
I'm confident too.

485
00:28:25,871 --> 00:28:26,956
This doesn't seem right--

486
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:28,707
Hush!

487
00:28:29,667 --> 00:28:30,584
Hush!

488
00:28:31,168 --> 00:28:32,002
Don't worry,

489
00:28:32,086 --> 00:28:34,588
my little baby deer.

490
00:28:34,672 --> 00:28:36,006
What?

491
00:28:36,632 --> 00:28:37,633
This is going to be so much fun.

492
00:28:39,635 --> 00:28:40,594
Fun?

493
00:28:41,345 --> 00:28:42,430
It's going to be hell.

494
00:28:46,434 --> 00:28:47,560
Is this the start of round two?

495
00:28:51,355 --> 00:28:52,565
Okay, let's go!

496
00:28:53,190 --> 00:28:55,526
To our home, sweet home!

497
00:28:55,609 --> 00:28:57,403
Yeah! Bang, bang!

498
00:28:57,486 --> 00:28:59,071
Let's go!

499
00:29:09,832 --> 00:29:14,462
{\an8}MOST POPULAR WEB NOVEL OF 2026
WE WERE FRIENDS

500
00:29:14,545 --> 00:29:17,673
{\an8}FINAL CHAPTER:
FIRST SNOW

501
00:29:18,257 --> 00:29:19,341
{\an8}Honey,

502
00:29:19,425 --> 00:29:21,218
when was this taken?

503
00:29:22,094 --> 00:29:23,762
Oh, wow.

504
00:29:23,846 --> 00:29:26,724
That's when I went to the ER
with food poisoning.

505
00:29:27,391 --> 00:29:28,309
The ER?

506
00:29:30,227 --> 00:29:34,732
When you kept feeding me raw oysters,
saying they were good for my stamina.

507
00:29:34,815 --> 00:29:35,816
Man.

508
00:29:35,900 --> 00:29:38,027
Oh, that time when we were up in Seoul?

509
00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:54,293
What brings you here?

510
00:29:56,170 --> 00:29:57,630
You're leaving tomorrow, right?

511
00:29:57,713 --> 00:29:59,006
Have you finished packing?

512
00:29:59,632 --> 00:30:01,759
Yeah. Are you here to say goodbye?

513
00:30:04,595 --> 00:30:06,222
I'm here to give you this.

514
00:30:14,146 --> 00:30:17,274
I heard hospital bills in America
are really expensive,

515
00:30:17,358 --> 00:30:20,194
and it can be hard to get hold
of medicine. What if you get sick?

516
00:30:23,030 --> 00:30:24,657
Don't get sick.

517
00:30:24,740 --> 00:30:28,536
And don't get too close to Deul-i
while you're there.

518
00:30:28,619 --> 00:30:32,414
Then again, don't get too close
to any American girls either.

519
00:30:32,915 --> 00:30:35,459
Just focus on your studies, okay?

520
00:30:36,126 --> 00:30:37,378
Also,

521
00:30:37,461 --> 00:30:39,880
watch out for pretty American girls…

522
00:30:40,464 --> 00:30:44,260
and handsome American guys as well.

523
00:30:44,343 --> 00:30:48,305
If anyone talks to you,
don't smile back at them.

524
00:30:48,389 --> 00:30:49,431
Okay?

525
00:30:52,059 --> 00:30:53,018
Thanks.

526
00:30:55,604 --> 00:30:57,815
That's exactly the smile
I'm talking about.

527
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,442
This is going to be a disaster.

528
00:31:02,736 --> 00:31:05,447
You're only staying in the US
during the vacation

529
00:31:05,531 --> 00:31:07,283
to conduct research, right?

530
00:31:07,366 --> 00:31:08,659
You have to come back.

531
00:31:10,119 --> 00:31:11,453
Talk about overthinking.

532
00:31:12,371 --> 00:31:13,831
Good luck with your writing.

533
00:31:14,623 --> 00:31:15,624
What's your next novel about?

534
00:31:19,086 --> 00:31:20,296
The title is…

535
00:31:38,314 --> 00:31:39,607
Have a great trip.

536
00:31:40,983 --> 00:31:43,402
Thanks. Look after yourself.

537
00:32:44,421 --> 00:32:46,632
Mr. Ga!

538
00:32:47,216 --> 00:32:48,467
Come here, sir!

539
00:32:49,635 --> 00:32:51,261
Look, it's snowing!

540
00:32:51,345 --> 00:32:52,388
Snow! It's the first snow!

541
00:32:53,055 --> 00:32:53,972
First snow.

542
00:32:57,017 --> 00:32:58,435
<i>It's snowing!</i>

543
00:32:59,269 --> 00:33:01,230
<i>It's the first snow!</i>

544
00:33:07,027 --> 00:33:08,028
<i>Do you like it that much?</i>

545
00:33:11,407 --> 00:33:12,616
<i>Of course!</i>

546
00:33:13,409 --> 00:33:15,285
<i>It's my first snow!</i>

547
00:33:15,953 --> 00:33:16,995
<i>First snow!</i>

548
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,039
<i>My first snow!</i>

549
00:34:03,167 --> 00:34:05,252
-Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!

550
00:34:05,335 --> 00:34:07,755
-Rock, paper, scissors!
-Rock, paper, scissors!

551
00:35:10,901 --> 00:35:12,986
<i>Everything is sweet and sour</i>

552
00:35:14,655 --> 00:35:17,032
<i>This might be the real me</i>

553
00:35:18,617 --> 00:35:21,328
<i>Everything is sweet and sour</i>

554
00:35:21,787 --> 00:35:23,789
<i>Fill it sweetly</i>

555
00:35:23,872 --> 00:35:25,624
<i>Sweet and sour</i>

556
00:35:52,901 --> 00:35:56,947
{\an8}-So cute!
-So cute!

557
00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:59,157
{\an8}-Jenny!
-Jenny!

558
00:36:09,084 --> 00:36:10,961
{\an8}<i>What's really on your mind</i>

559
00:36:11,044 --> 00:36:12,629
{\an8}<i>If you feel uneasy</i>

560
00:36:12,713 --> 00:36:14,464
{\an8}<i>You know it's all right</i>

561
00:36:14,548 --> 00:36:17,050
{\an8}<i>When you look up to the sky</i>

562
00:36:17,134 --> 00:36:20,220
{\an8}<i>It's sweet and sour</i>

563
00:36:20,304 --> 00:36:22,556
{\an8}<i>Everything is sweet and sour</i>

564
00:36:23,599 --> 00:36:26,310
{\an8}<i>This might be the real me</i>

565
00:36:27,769 --> 00:36:30,022
{\an8}<i>Everything is sweet and sour</i>

566
00:36:30,772 --> 00:36:32,649
{\an8}<i>Fill it sweetly</i>

567
00:36:32,733 --> 00:36:34,568
{\an8}<i>Sweet and sour</i>

568
00:36:46,914 --> 00:36:47,915
-Bye!
-Bye!

569
00:36:49,791 --> 00:36:51,668
-Bye!
-Bye!

570
00:36:54,379 --> 00:36:57,132
THE END
