Original subtitles

I'm the assistant writer...

of a melodrama.

Your loan amount is $187,260,

and your amount due is $865.

You're going to be an aunt.

-Father! -It's a boy.

Game over.

A townhouse?

-She wants someone to move in right away. -I can do that!

I HAVE MOVED IN AS AGREED

YOON JI-HO

Oh, shoot! Amazing!

I just feel embarrassed.

I am 30 already, but I still can't decipher men's signals.

Twenty, thirty, the part in charge of those time-related concepts

is the neocortex of the brain.

Thirty years, forty years. It's the same thing every day.

That day, more than anything else, I was comforted by those words.

Hello! You are home--

Because of your name, I was sure you were a girl.

-Did you perhaps... -What?

redo the grout on the bathroom tiles?

Did you also clean the living room windows?

Yes, when I write, I have a habit of cleaning.

I see.

I left without saying goodbye.

Who is it?

When I decided to make a living off of my dream,

I knew that my life

would be like walking alone

through a dark tunnel.

But I didn't know

that it would be this dark.

I didn't know

that it would be this lonely.

Excuse me,

I have something to ask you.

Yes.

Perhaps, if you have some time...

Yes.

Will you... marry me?

Yes.

What?

Do what?

Marriage.

Why would I... marry...

Why would we marry each other?

No, why would a landlord and their tenant do...

something like that?

Never mind. Just pretend you didn't hear it.

-What? -I misspoke. Please don't worry about it.

Good night then.

I left the sheets in the room the way they were.

The pillow cover is in the wash.

-I'll give you a new-- -No.

It's not very sanitary to sleep without a cover.

No! I'm about to leave.

I told you that I was just out for a walk.

I'll be on my way now. Thank you for the beer.

GAYANG-DONG

MANGWON-DONG

I seriously have no place to go.

LANDLORD

I wanted to tell you that taxis don't run at this hour.

The passcode is still the same.

Perhaps, if you have some time...

Would you... marry me?

He definitely said

the word "marriage."

Why does he always lock the door? Who locks their own door?

Is he messing with me? Seriously?

Marriage? We just met. How can he say that and still lock the door?

Seriously. I'm leaving on the first bus tomorrow.

Yes, it's apartment 401.

I think my neighbor is doing renovations without informing me.

Yes.

I guess it isn't construction.

I will leave when the bus starts running.

I won't be here when you wake up, so I'm saying goodbye in advance.

I'll pretend I didn't hear a thing.

The number cannot be reached.

After the beep--

It's me. Why isn't Ji-ho picking up? She's not even reading my messages.

Really? Did she have a meeting?

Ho-rang, I'm hanging now.

-So what if that happens? -Still, it shouldn't.

Deputy Woo!

-Out for some fresh air? -Yes.

Since you're here, why don't you have a cigarette with us?

Deputy, you can't say things like that.

It's fine. It's just Deputy Woo.

It's really fine.

Yes, she'll be fine.

The number cannot be reached.

She really isn't picking up.

I was just wondering why you weren't coming today.

There isn't much time left for this.

Instead of touching it every day, just buy it.

Really? This can't be true.

I really wanted to buy this to put in my house when I get married.

-Will it be out again next year? -Next year?

Just tell your boyfriend to marry you soon.

You should do it before your beauty fades.

He's so busy.

He's a Seoul University graduate.

-What does he do? -You wouldn't understand.

It's very complicated.

You're bragging.

That scared me.

I barely got two hours of sleep, and yet I feel so refreshed.

How are you eating at 5 a.m.?

No, no...

Your owner will wake up.

Eat quietly please.

Where are you coming from?

-Work. -At this time?

Yes.

Did you wake up just now?

Yes.

At this time?

Yes.

I'm sure that I told you last night that I'd take the first bus out.

Not the last bus?

The last one?

That's a bit much. How can you tell me to take the last bus?

What are you implying? You've been too much since last night.

I was so upset, I tossed and turned all night, I barely slept two hours.

Why would you say that to someone who woke up at the crack of dawn

to take the last bus? Are you always so rude?

I merely stated facts.

You missed the first bus.

-What? -Because...

It's 5 p.m.

You can't take the first bus. You can take the last.

It's not 5 a.m.,

but 5 p.m.?

Yes.

So I didn't sleep two hours...

You slept exactly 14 hours.

Are you... kidding?

No, I am not.

I set the alarm incorrectly.

I was really going to take the first bus out.

Yes, you were sleeping so soundly, that I couldn't wake you.

You must not have been sleeping well lately.

The place you're staying at right now must not be comfortable.

Why are you...

treating me like this?

Why are you so nice to me?

-Me? -Yes.

You gave me the bigger ramen

and a new pillowcase.

-That's because... -You even asked me

to marry you.

I told you to pretend I didn't say--

But I heard you.

-Don't worry-- -But it does worry me.

The noodles will overcook. Let's eat.

Do you...

like me?

Do you like me?

No.

I gave you that ramen because I can't eat spicy food.

I gave you new pillow covers

because it is unhygienic to sleep without one.

And the marriage thing...

I asked you because it's something I need.

-You need it? -Yes.

If I had to get married, I thought

that you would be the best person.

Why me?

How did you come to that conclusion?

I need someone who'll take care of the house, and you need a home.

I need monthly rent,

and you need a room without a deposit.

Aren't these the best conditions for living together?

That's why I asked. There was no other reason.

Still, how could you bring up marriage?

How could you get married for an apartment?

Why do you think people get married?

Well, affection,

love, those kinds of things.

That's right. That's what people normally think.

However, affection, love, and those things,

do you need them right now, more than a house?

Right now...

Not right now,

but it's something I'll need someday.

I see.

I thought you were a person with a similar mindframe as me.

It was my error in judgment.

Pretend you didn't hear what I said today.

Take your time eating before you leave.

Deputy Woo! You haven't gone home yet?

No. I have to wrap this up.

That's due tomorrow.

You should have the newbies do this for you.

You're on a higher level than this.

Don't be nice to the newbies just because you're a woman.

Go hard on them.

Aren't you off already?

I have some work left to do,

but since you're here, I can leave earlier.

Sorry? What does my being here have to do with you leaving early?

It doesn't have to do specifically with you,

-but people's perceptions... -Sorry?

Our department manager said something the other day.

He said we shouldn't work late at night with an unmarried female coworker.

It's a bit weird.

Since you're not married, you wouldn't know,

but married men, like myself,

have to be careful.

If I get tangled up in a web of rumors with a female coworker...

Well then, I'll clock out first.

You don't have to leave early just because I said that.

Bastard.

Thank you. Have a nice day!

Let's clean up and get off work on time.

Okay.

Wipe this down one more time, please.

-Seul-gi! Here, too. -Yes.

Let's go there.

Okay.

Sounds tasty!

Hey. Isn't that guy super cute?

Yes, he's totally my style.

He's so good looking.

Wait, isn't that the manager's boyfriend?

No way.

Sorry, I didn't know.

Isn't he handsome?

I'll be going. See you tomorrow!

-Bye. -Bye!

-Won-seok! -Oh, my. You're here.

So cute.

Didn't the manager say she's been in a really long-term relationship?

I think it was seven years?

He still picks her up every time she gets off work late. Isn't that cute?

I'm so jealous!

He's cool.

What did you do today?

Today? I got some incredible results.

Did you find investors?

Here, look at this.

I finished making it yesterday. Isn't it pretty?

See? It looks like a constellation.

I think what Carl Sagan said is true.

In the end, humans and space are connected.

Isn't it beautiful?

Yup. It looks like a pancake.

Seok, the sofa that I told you about before...

What? Oh, that new one at the shop?

Yeah. They said there are not many left.

That's what they always say to pressure you.

Even in this recession,

those who usually buy those things still buy them.

They said a lot of newlywed couples buy it.

It's the perfect size for a newlywed house.

That's why they also say, the usual doers will always do.

Even if birth rates dip, the usual doers will end up doing it all in the end.

Jeez, South Korea still has a long way to go.

Did you have a bad day at work today?

No. It was a totally productive day.

Why did she get mad? I didn't do anything.

Did I do something wrong?

-Seok! -Yes, ma'am!

Do you know Ji-ho's address? Soo-ji's asking. She can't reach Ji-ho.

Ji-ho? She left his apartment last week.

-What? -You guys didn't know?

Where has she been staying all this time?

I thought you were a person with a similar mindframe as me.

What in the world does that even mean?

Same mindframe?

-What a weirdo. -Wow, no way.

Pajamas!

Hey, Soo-ji. It's me.

Hey! Where are you? You ignored my calls and my texts!

Sorry. I'll tell you what's going on later.

I am in the neighborhood of the house where I used to live.

We're in the area. Where exactly are you?

Really? Awesome.

I'm at the bus stop.

I see a bus stop.

Some crazy chick is sitting there in pajamas.

Where are you?

Well... I'm the crazy chick.

Ji-ho! Did you sleep out on the street?

Open!

Gosh!

So you left in pajamas?

The bastard! We should eat that punk for breakfast!

-Do your bosses know what happened? -That bastard!

That jerk doesn't even deserve to be chopped to pieces!

Hey! What's his number?

Oh, my gosh, let's listen to her first!

No one knows.

I just got out of there and left everything behind.

You should have told us.

We didn't know you were living in your studio.

You should have called me.

Why did you go to that landlord's place at that time of night?

I walked around for a bit.

What do you mean "a bit"? It's miles from your studio.

Ji-ho. You have something going on with him, don't you?

Something lovey-dovey?

It's not like that. Lovey-dovey? Whatever...

-No. Something's up. -No, really. Nothing's going on.

Your eyes are sparkling!

I said no!

Okay. Don't get mad at me.

I'll take you home first. Won-seok must be worried.

Ji-ho. You're coming to my place, okay?

NOODLES

Hello. My name is Hwang Ji-yeon, the person Mr. Nam is introducing you to.

Yes. Hello. Nice to meet you.

"I believe in fate."

Darn it.

How does tomorrow work for you?

Why are you on the floor? The bed's right there.

No. I couldn't leave my guest to sleep on the floor.

You know I like the floor.

-Ji-ho. I can work, right? -Yep!

I have a big event coming up.

"Demo day"?

Yeah.

It's a meetup opportunity for startups and investors.

Blind dating for startups.

"Don't Marry, Date." What a unique name for a company.

It's a dating app. Haven't you tried it?

If you upload your picture,

people can score you.

Score you?

You're assigned a level according to your score.

And then you're matched with a guy on your same level.

So I can't meet guys that are a higher level than me?

Nope. If you want to,

you need to pay. Amazing, huh?

What in the world? It's like a caste system.

-It's a little bit offensive. -They have a ton of users already.

It's the most sought-after startup at our event.

The investors are all eyeing them.

People these days. They're so tough.

Of course. In this hellish country, you have to be tough to date.

Otherwise you just can't.

Mating has become a competitive sport.

-You know what I'm sayin', baby? -Yeah, baby.

Is there a hole in your chin? You're dropping so much food.

People are simpler than we think.

Our app honed in on that notion.

Why do so many people fail at blind dates?

"I have a feeling" or "I can really talk to them."

Aren't such things too subjective?

We decided to be a bit more honest.

We took mankind's most basic instincts and created an app around them:

The fact that men look first at a woman's physical appearance,

and women look first at a man's competence.

Of course, we also factored in physical distance.

We introduce you to people who are geographically close.

As a result, we have seen 350,000 new users in the past five months

and have hit revenues of $380,000 per month.

-One thing. -Yes?

Why is the name of the app "Don't Marry, Date"?

Wouldn't it be better

to emphasize marriage, the pinnacle of successful love?

Why is marriage the pinnacle of successful love?

Well, the purpose of dating is to get married.

Marriage is the result of successful love.

Marriage is restricting. Especially in modern times,

marriage is a social construct that exists to preserve one's DNA.

Nothing more, nothing less.

The result of love?

That's the false hope of fools who are falling behind the times

and want to perpetuate the construct of marriage in the name of love.

-What the heck? -What did he say?

Why is he being like that?

So, you're saying that I, or my generation,

are falling behind the times?

Well, no. No.

The name of our app and the direction we want this to go is "Don't Marry, Date."

Marriage is something

that can change in purpose and process according to each individual's values.

However, dating will always share one thing...

and that is love.

LOVE IS ALSO A SCIENCE. LET'S DATE WITH DATA. DON'T MARRY, DATE!

So he knows how to sell a drug or two.

I told you not to take questions and leave them to me.

You just have to show investors your perfectly normal face.

Is that so much to ask?

For just one moment,

is it so hard for you to pretend to be a normal human being--

Chief Nam, your presentation was awesome. The best.

Hey. Where are you going?

You need to be at the networking event.

Networking's not my thing, so why doesn't a normal person,

like you, do it?

He's the type that holds grudges.

He has the charm of sandpaper.

I'm going to sand that sandpaper down.

The door is locked. I came to pick up my things.

The door is locked. Please hand me my things.

Give me my things, you bastard.

MS. HWANG

Miss Yoon, here's some coffee. You just drink this.

-Thank you. -Drink up.

Are you still mad?

Sorry?

-No. It's not that I'm mad but... -I know.

I'm sorry.

I've given it some thought,

and what you said is right.

I always say I want something new and creative,

but in the end, we do what we always do.

The same old ideas, mixed and blended.

When I first started, I wasn't like this.

I ended up like this because I wanted to survive.

It isn't like we just started working with each other.

It's already been five years.

You know more than anyone that I truly want you to succeed.

I do. Do you know that?

I know,

and I really appreciate it.

You hide it well.

You're smiling.

Get up. Let's go somewhere and have a drink.

Just you and me?

-You don't want to? -It's not that,

but you don't drink very often.

So what?

I'll drink today with you. Let's go.

Ma'am...

thank you.

What's wrong with you?

Let's go. You still have some left.

Matchmaking by rating level.

That's some new caste system.

Let's talk numbers.

Last week we had the version update,

so sales will rise 300% or more.

That's my prediction, which I say with modesty and embarrassment.

Wow, then you don't need investors like us.

Absolutely not true.

You are as necessary to our growth

as a mother's breast milk.

Please continue to give us a good push until our IPO.

CEO Ma's attitude is just so great.

He's not like the young CEOs these days.

Right.

Deputy Park.

CEO!

Hello, sir.

You've worked hard.

Nice to meet you.

Your investor relations work was impressive.

It's nothing.

-Don't you agree, Deputy Woo? -Yes.

I love the clear message from it.

Deputy Woo, have you used this app?

Someone like you should get at least a diamond rating.

Sadly, that was not the case.

No way. Did you just upload pictures of your face?

You should have uploaded a full-body picture.

Yeah? Deputy Woo's full-body picture was that incredible?

I'm hearing this for the first time.

Of course.

Not only is she smart, she also has a great figure. She's an ace.

She's also...

Deputy Park. I'm sorry, but do you have a cigarette?

-I left mine in the car. -Cigarette.

Do you want to come out and smoke with us?

-Should I? -That would be great.

This way then. This way.

Wait a second. Wait.

Deputy Woo, you should come with us.

Goodbye.

Smoking is best done on the rooftop.

By any chance, do you remember me?

From the wedding?

Yes, that's right. We met at the wedding, right?

-The world's a small place. -I know, right?

Besides the wedding, do you remember anything else?

The rooftop party last year.

I lit your cigarette for you,

like I did now, and we chatted and had beer together.

At that time, you drank cocktails, and afterward, we...

Okay.

If you'd rather pretend you don't know...

No, please, be polite enough to finish that sentence.

We slept together that day.

I was going to pretend I didn't know you for your sake, but you insisted.

Last year, I slept...

with you?

You really don't remember? Okay, here.

Number 303. The room we stayed in.

How can you forget about that?

We were totally into it. Don't you remember?

I'm sorry. Normally, I remember the guys I sleep with,

but if I don't have a single memory of you,

maybe you didn't leave a very good impression.

She can't remember me?

Where did all the great memories go?

Were all my highly impressionable actions forgotten?

-The ambiance is great here, right? -It is.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

I heard Yong-seok found a place for Miss Yoon.

Looking at you two, I can tell you share a special bond.

-It's a great sight. -That's right.

I like how boys and girls nowadays can be just friends.

During our time, that was unheard of. Girls and boys could not be friends.

Even spending a night in the same place. The rumors!

Yup, rumors back then.

And that caused some serious heartache, too.

Oh, my. I don't know about me, but I know you did.

You really liked me back then.

Why are you being like this? Stop it.

Why are you bringing that up now? Stop.

You have changed so much.

Miss Yoon, another glass?

Here.

It's like that when you look at places

where youngsters work. All sorts of stuff happens.

It's all the same everywhere you go. Such a common thing.

You little rascal.

Hurry and apologize to Writer Yoon.

I heard he treated you badly in some way.

That's why I scolded him good yesterday.

Yong-seok said he wanted to apologize to you,

-so I brought him here. -Yup, good job.

Ji-ho,

I was very drunk,

I must have gone crazy.

I'm really sorry.

Yong-seok! I was really going to kill you, you know.

But I held it in. You should thank Director Park for that.

What...

are you all doing right now?

Why...

are you yelling

at the assistant director, Director?

What are you holding in, Ms. Hwang?

I'm obviously...

the victim here.

Victim? Your words are a bit too much.

I was sexually harassed.

No, it was attempted sexual assault, so I should be called a victim.

How else would you call it?

What do you mean sexually assaulted?

Why are you using such harsh words--

Shut up before I have you arrested.

Miss Yoon, your words are too harsh.

We're all like family here, is there a need to do this?

We're all gathered here together because of you, to apologize.

Is that so?

Why did you make me come here?

Why do I have to...

accept his apology like this?

Wait.

Miss Yoon,

it's because we're all very important to each other.

We don't want to ruin this team, we're trying our best.

Your best?

Is this how you try your best?

If I was walking down the street and got hit by a rock and was bleeding,

trying hard would be to carry me on your back to the hospital, no?

"You're not bleeding. You're fine.

Just keep walking."

Just dragging me forcibly, is what you call trying hard?

When the victim is in so much pain from the wound?

Miss Yoon, do you think this is

some college club meeting?

If you whine about such a small thing,

how are you going to make any dramas? Drama?

This is teamwork.

It's about where you are now and your future.

Without us, your script wouldn't get a slot. Do you know that?

Yes.

I know.

So I'm...

not going to do drama anymore.

I won't do it again.

Please don't contact me again.

Yoon Ji-ho.

ONE LUCKY DAY HYUN JIN-GEON

You did well.

You did really well, Yoon Ji-ho.

You didn't cry and held it in well.

-Here. One more glass. -But I already had five glasses.

"Already"? You mean you've "only" had five.

It's customary to get real drunk on the day that you quit.

That's right. You can just drink and vomit, drink and vomit again.

-We'll take care of everything else. -You guys are scary.

-I thought you were going to comfort me! -That's why! Now, for comfort!

Cheers!

I really can't drink anymore. I feel like my stomach is about to burst.

Really? Then now that we've filled our bellies, should we head out?

-Where? -We need to go to karaoke!

No, no, no! Wait. I really can't.

We'll only sing ballads. Let's go!

Let's go!

Soo-ji and Ho-rang have always been like this.

If I'm going through something very difficult,

they don't ask how or why it happened,

like others usually would.

We just laugh hard and talk like usual.

The truth is, is there anything more comforting than that?

What?

Did you really send the email?

Why would you do it like that?

Okay. I will look into it.

What? Do you need to go?

It's an important client, and things got messed up.

-I should've turned my phone off. -No, no. Hurry and go. It's okay.

I'm sorry.

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry.

You said we were going to drink all night.

HONEY

Hey, Won-seok.

She's so heavy.

You were the one who quit, why is she the one knocked out?

I know. She can't even drink.

It's so late, how will you get back? Stay at our place.

Hey, we're 30, not 20.

Hey, a taxi!

Taxi. Thank you.

-All set. -Thank you.

But still, everyone has

a place to return to.

The bus service is terminated for the night.

Except me.

Why do I always end up on the streets?

MOM

Yeah, it's Ji-ho.

Where are you? Aren't you sleeping?

I'm still out. Something happened.

Go home early.

Living with someone and going home late is a nuisance.

I am on my way.

Clean your room, too.

And wash the cups that you use.

Okay.

Even after you've dried your hair, don't just come out.

Be it morning or night, clean...

Okay! I said okay already!

Why are you getting annoyed?

I'm only saying this for your own good.

What else should I do better?

Doing well is the only thing that matters?

You don't even know.

Okay.

Hurry and go. Eat, too.

I'm hanging up.

Ji-ho.

Yeah.

If Seoul is so cold,

you can come down here.

Your room is still the same here.

You can come any time, okay?

One second. Please take this with you.

-Did it come for me? -Yes.

Some man left it here for room 401.

Yes.

YOU TOLD ME NOT TO CONTACT YOU, SO I LEFT THE BAG HERE. I'M SORRY - YONG-SEOK

My bag.

Your luggage was in the security office, so I took it.

My workplace must have sent it to the address on my contract.

I'm sorry. Can I go get it today?

Yes. Come when it's convenient for you.

What is this? Didn't we just have breakfast?

Eat at least a little every day.

How have you not touched the food your mom sent?

Hey, my mom makes a lot.

Should we day-drink on the weekend?

Soo-ji.

Today... I will be heading down to Namhae.

Right. Go and rest, then come back.

No. I will be staying there after I settle things here in Seoul.

The project is down the drain, and there's nothing to do here.

If it's about the house, you can stay here.

I don't mind at all.

It's not about the house.

It's just...

Seoul's weather is

so cold. I'm tired of it.

I'm heading down.

Your call cannot be connected.

Is he not in?

Kitty, how are you?

Did you eat?

Come here.

Kitty.

You told me not to contact you, so I left the bag here. I'm sorry.

TURTLE STUDENT HOUSING BY YOON JI-HO

I can't throw them out with my own hands,

so I will leave these here.

Please recycle them for me.

Hello.

Why did you do that?

How could you cause trouble like that in someone else's house?

What did you say that you would receive?

-Rent. -Are you in your right mind?

Why would you charge rent to your wife?

Because I need the money.

The woman was talking about quitting her job after getting married,

having a child, and traveling.

I want to get rent from the person I live with,

I want her to recycle and to clean the cat's poop.

I told her that. What about it?

What do you mean?

No matter how much you didn't like her,

is that something normal to say in a marriage meeting?

Yup, certainly not normal.

What's "normal" then?

Give love and receive love. Live like that, then have babies,

-and live happily and ordinarily. -How's that ordinary?

It is ordinary!

That's how everyone else lives. What's so hard to understand?

Do you know what the average cost of getting married is in this country?

Well, with this and that, maybe $50,000?

It's $270,000. And raising a kid costs $300,000.

Something that costs that much with someone

who can't tell if ramen cups are made of plastic or styrofoam,

how could I do that?

What are you talking about?

Are you trying to hire help?

She's young and pretty.

Men get all weak over women like that. How come you're--

Young and pretty? She is all that, too.

Son...

is there... a problem?

Problem?

I mean, due to hormones in our environment these days,

young men can have difficulty with... down there.

Mother!

I don't know!

You've been branded by the matchmakers now.

We won't be getting any more matches.

So go to Mr. Hwang and beg.

-I think she's still fond of you. -Why would I?

If I end up divorced because of you,

-I'll move in here. -What?

You know your father better than anyone. I don't need to explain.

Decide whether it's better to live your life serving an elderly mother

or married to a young and pretty girl.

Think that through.

Hello.

Well...

I'm really sorry.

I thought I shouldn't be seen by your mother.

No, I'm very grateful you did that.

But your belongings. Why...

Did you move out of where you were staying?

Yes. Actually, I'm going down to Namhae.

And your writing work?

I'm done with that.

Thank you for everything, for giving me such a great room.

Thanks to you, I was able to write my first project here, too.

Even though it failed.

Things will go well for you no matter what you do or where you are,

because you are a responsible person.

You also scored the highest among the tenants I've had.

Yes. Things will work out well for you, too.

With your marriage, too. Somebody good will come your way.

Well... I don't know about that...

whether I'll find her and whether I could actually marry her.

Why not? You proposed to me easily. You'll be able to do it again.

But that was you.

It's because it was you that I proposed.

Because you're the tenant with the highest score.

I don't need marriage, I need you, and that's why I made

that proposition to you.

I knew that it wasn't exactly a moment that makes a heart skip a beat.

Because what I need isn't a good woman,

but an outstanding tenant who can guarantee a monthly income.

Nevertheless...

it was the first time...

that someone told me I was needed.

TO BOARDING PLATFORMS

-Where are you headed? -Namhae. The 7 p.m. bus.

All throughout my twenties,

I worked hard to become needed somewhere.

Whenever things were tough,

I would cross the Han River bridge.

On the other side of the Han River,

I thought,

there had to be at least one place...

where I was needed.

During ten years,

you've been hit and injured a lot, too.

When you first came here, you were sparkling.

SEOUL TO NAMHAE

Why did I try so hard to live so diligently?

When in the end, I'd just go back without having achieved anything.

The odds of having my own place here

never existed in the first place.

How are you...?

-How...? -Why aren't you answering your phone?

My cell phone ran out of battery, so it's off.

You left this in the room.

You came because of this?

I was heading out anyway.

I heard you were taking the 7 p.m. bus.

I thought you might need these.

Yes.

I do need them.

We're leaving now.

Well then.

Yes.

But that was you.

It's because it was you that I proposed.

That...

I am needed.

The person who first said that to me.

The bus driver is angry at me, he can't wait long.

I need you to answer quickly.

Yes.

Will you...

marry me?

Quickly. He's waiting.

Yes.

Then I'll go and get my luggage.

The driver's very angry.

Wait.

-Before that, I have something to ask you. -Yes, go ahead.

Do you even...

like me at all?

Nope.

Our proposal

has begun.

I decided to marry my tenant today.

Really marry? Marry a woman?

Though we've only known each other for a little while,

he's someone I feel that I really need.

-Need? -Now I know why you want to marry!

Punk! You can fool everyone in the world, but not me!

-She's pretty. -She's pretty?

My family is absolutely patriarchal.

Do you want me to lose it?

Ta-da!

I thought he was going to propose to me!

Will you be all right?

Why do you ask why we're getting married?

I love Oppa.

Indeed. Marrying the tenant was the right answer.
