[Episode 2: Buckwheat Pancake]

There aren't as many customers on rainy days.

That's how she came. With the rain.

Welcome.

What would you like to order?

Whatever you order, I can make it for you.

Could you make buckwheat pancakes?

Sure.

A melody from the rain.

Not many think of buckwheat pancake out of all the other pancakes.

Thanks to her

I saw how this buoyantly thin buckwheat pancake is similar to the rain.

Thank you for the meal.

I'm sorry.

Did you see? That was Jung Eun Soo.

Jung Eun Soo. Right? Jung Eun Soo?

A famous star from decades ago.

- She was in that famous drama. - Ah, yes!

Really? How did you recognize her right away?

- You really are a reporter! - I used to really like her!

- I made bookmarks out of her. - Why did she quit acting?

She didn't choose to quit acting. She was forced to quit.

A crazy man was stalking her and attacked her.

- With a knife, he attacked her face... - My god!

What a crazy bastard.

He completely destroyed a woman's life.

I agree.

She went through a series of surgeries.

But she stopped acting after that.

She had her face covered. Maybe she hasn't completely healed yet.

After that day

on nights when the darkness was soaked in rain

she quietly visited.

Like a wet fog.

This rainy season has been going on forever.

You still have customers!

A sashimi place over there is going out of business.

They haven't had a lot of customers because it's the rainy season.

And on top of that, the landlord wanted to increase the rent.

Oh no. That's too bad.

Nowadays, landlords are the gods.

No one recognized her.

Unfortunately. Or fortunately.

Why is it raining so much?

- Here you go. - You're always so charming.

That's so odd.

You were using an umbrella. How did you get so wet?

From now on, you know the parasol in front of the supermarket?

Pull that one out and use it instead.

I love everything about this place, but you don't do deliveries.

Do you know how scary it is to come all the way out here on rainy days?

You should just stay home. Why come all this way?

I feel like drinking on days that I work overtime.

Especially on days like this... I want soju and some soup.

Or brew rice wine and pancakes.

Master, I want seafood pancakes and soju!

Okay.

I thought you liked soju and soup together.

- I can eat your soup. - What?

That smells so good! Master, what is this?

- It's buckwheat pancake. - Ah, I see.

If you eat it with sour kimchi, it tastes so good.

You're right. And it doesn't feel heavy.

For a pancake, it doesn't taste greasy.

Maybe I should order a buckwheat pancake too.

Thank you.

Hello! We're here!

This girl's name is Yoo Jung.

She's a fitting model for Noodle Sisters' online shopping store.

Our work always ends so late! And you have to go to school tomorrow.

- I'm not in school. - Why not?

You took an entrance exam last year.

Didn't you say you were going to major in acting and cinematography?

- I couldn't register. - How come?

You said you wanted to be an actress.

My siblings have to go to college

and I don't need to go to school for acting.

No way! You already gave all of your paychecks to your family...

I just need to prepare well for all the auditions.

Are there such things like that?

I see. Is it like the show 'K-Pop Star'?

No, it's not that. Acting roles are actually offered through agencies.

So for us, it's hard to even participate in these auditions.

If there was an auditioning program like 'K-Pop Star' for acting, I would try it.

Just saying...

I'm sure it will all work out.

Don't you guys ever get sick of it?

We're fine with noodles.

But why do you always eat radish bibimbap?

- You should eat something better. - I like this dish the best.

When my younger siblings are hungry, I just put everything in and make this.

It's so easy to make and always tastes so good.

- We always need to make more. - That's how you should eat bibimbap.

That's the way to make bibimbap. You know quite a lot for a young girl.

I'm jealous. You don't even gain weight when you eat like that.

- When I was her age, I was like her. - In your dreams.

When I was younger, I was very good-looking.

I used to look like an actor.

You guys probably don't know him though.

Whenever I would visit my hometown on breaks

all the ladies lined up to just see me.

As I get older...

- my belly keeps on growing. - Me too.

- Let's go to the South Pacific Ocean. - Pardon?

If we're going to have huge bellies, let's be reborn as tunas.

Just like that, I wanted her to shine and fly.

- That woman is Jung Eun Soo? - I can't believe it!

How did I not recognize her?

You draw comics, yet you can't visually pick things up.

She covered herself with a scarf and sunglasses.

So I thought she was a Chinese woman getting plastic surgery in Korea.

It's common.

Master, how come you didn't tell us about her?

I'm sorry. He's my senior from college.

I jokingly told him about her to brag, and he just wanted to come here.

I heard she comes here pretty often. Is there any way I could contact her?

I just don't know anything about her.

I am responsible... for Eun Soo's injury.

What?

I was a director's assistant back then.

Director Hwang's ratings for his show were 47 percent.

- Hey, you. - Yes!

I'm sorry.

She was a big star then.

Every broadcasting network wanted to work with her.

We wanted her as well.

I told them I could cast her, and started following her day and night.

I think she felt bad for me. Eun Soo met with me.

That crazy stalker misunderstood our relationship.

It didn't take long for a big star like her to be forgotten.

Surgeries to depression to sociophobia.

I'm sure that's what she went through.

This is like a death sentence to an actress.

And she was in her early twenties. This is when women look the prettiest.

I can't believe he did that.

For flowers, at least they wither and blossom again in the spring.

For her, she was just forgotten after this one incident.

In this world...

a woman more pitiful than a dead woman

is a forgotten woman.

That's why you kept on looking for her.

From what I heard

she apparently supported her entire family financially.

But after that incident

they've all had a rough relationship, and they split up.

Her parents are divorced, and her siblings are just jobless.

I thought he was trying to help her out of pity.

But the incident must have traumatized him too.

That man is a very famous director.

Every actor wants to be in his movies.

Whatever movie he makes, it does so well in all these countries.

This is a good opportunity for Eun Soo too.

Making a comeback as an actress

may be impossible if she misses this chance.

This is a piece of hope he left behind

asking me to contact him if she comes.

Please give me a drink.

Thank you for not telling anyone.

In this world, is there anything like buckwheat pancakes?

It doesn't decorate itself.

And blatantly shows off its ingredients.

Are there any pancakes similar to this one?

When I look at a buckwheat pancake

it feels like I'm looking at the bare face of life.

When I was younger...

when both of my parents were at work

and my younger siblings were hungry

I put sour kimchi in a pan

and made this for them.

Even though we didn't have much, kimchi and buckwheat

made it taste sour yet aromatic.

It tasted so good.

Since I was making it, they kept on taking it.

But even when we had several plates of it

we were always still hungry because it was so thin.

That's how things were.

Your buckwheat pancake

was warm and honest.

That's why I liked it.

Excuse me.

About that man...

Please tell him he can forget about it.

My dad...

My dad...

is kind and sweet.

He's usually a really good man.

But whenever he drinks...

That's why Mom left us.

Only my younger siblings are at our house right now.

Because there is an audition I want to try out for tomorrow

I've run away by myself.

It's all right. I understand.

It's okay. It's not your fault.

I just don't know what to do.

I'm not even sure if I'll make it in this field.

Do you think it's right for me to just chase after my own dream?

Listen to me very carefully.

Let's say you chase your dream and make whatever choices you want.

If you can take responsibility for these choices until the very end

then it is the right decision to make.

Yesterday is gone, and tomorrow hasn't come yet.

Every moment of your today may be the last day

to change your future.

Don't forget that.

It was a very humid rainy day.

Take it.

That was the end of the rainy season.

And... the end with her, too.

Master, it's starting! Hurry!

I can't breathe.

What?

She's on right now! Master, hurry! Hurry!

- Be quiet. - Master, hurry! Hurry!

- It's starting! - She looks pretty.

Tae Gyum!

Why are you doing this to me? You just can't!

If she talks to him like that, he's going to leave her.

- How can he be so oblivious? - Why would he leave her for that?

Please don't leave me.

She's out of your league.

She's so pretty. Very pretty.

I wish that's what my daughter would look like if I had one.

She looks exactly like me when I was young.

Let me concentrate on the show.

- Is she really our Yoo Jung? - Yeah, she is.

People are already asking me to introduce her to them.

What if she ignores us since she's famous?

If she does, I have more than a thousand funny pictures of her.

- I'm going to spread them online. - Hey.

I knew Yoo Jung would make it.

For a newbie, she's in a lot of scenes.

- They're trying something new. - You're right.

- Who is the director for this? - I heard he's quite famous.

- Oh my god. - You guys, be quiet.

She called me.

Ms. Eun Soo.

Have you also seen a girl named Yoo Jung?

She asked me to support her.

Thanks to her, I was able to apologize for what happened that day.

She said it's okay.

And she's fine.

Occasionally, since then

whenever I miss the sound of the rain, she comes to mind.

I wonder where she is right now, yearning for past days.

Let's go home! It stopped raining.

What are you doing? Go home.

- Oh my god! What is all this? - We're basically Yoo Jung's sisters!

Hello! We are her closest friends.

See you later then!

- See you later. - Bye.

I'll just take 1,000 won. Thank you. Bye.
