Was that a dream?

What did this face look like to him?

Stand straight!

I've been slouching for 20 years. I can't fix it overnight.

He'll see you as his dream girl from now on.

You are the best!

I can't imagine a pretty me.

Imagine it. Erase the face that you're used to seeing...

and leave just a blank canvas. Close your eyes.

And draw a beautiful girl in white.

That's you.

Are you sure this really works?

Do you want to see the pictures of your ancestors again?

I'm more nervous than before my college entrance exam.

I'm more nervous than when I went into labor with you.

Go, Mo Nan Hee, my daughter!

That hurts.

You are the most beautiful girl in the world now.

Straighten your back. Chest out.

Chin up. Smile coldly.

He's here. He's here.

What was that? Did he just walk past me?

What's your name?

You don't want to tell me your name?

(158464 Mo Nan Hee)

"158464 Mo Nan Hee."

Let's see what happens between us.

It's her.

What did she say? Does she want to date?

She doesn't...

remember me.

She doesn't remember this face?

How do I pay her back for this insult?

I'm going to make her model for me at the fashion show.

I'm home.

How did it go? What did he say? That you're pretty and he fell for you?

He asked what my name was.

Good. It worked.

Honey, I'm home.

The ring. The ring.

- Welcome home. - Hi.

- Are we having soybean stew? - Of course.

Hi.

(LJ Fashion, College Student Fashion Contest)

They'll send you to Paris?

There is a way other than winning the lottery.

But can I do it?

Three fashion design drawings.

Okay.

You got prettier.

Really? Where?

How? How much?

I was mistaken.

Do you want to die?

I think something happened to Mi Joo.

Her Facebook page is being flooded...

You see Mi Joo's Facebook page is being flooded,

but you don't see it's storming in my heart?

You always took her side ever since we were seven.

Tada.

- What is it? - Open it.

Do you see the missing screw? Fix it for me.

Do you want to get struck by lightning on a sunny day?

You're an expert with nails.

Get over here.

It'll be brand new if you fix it. Hurry up and fix it.

That hurts.

Hello. I heard you wanted to see me, sir.

There's no need to call me "sir." We're the same age.

I wanted to seem polite.

Are you sure?

Keep being polite.

- You're a fine arts major, right? - I am.

Do you know her?

We're close.

You are?

We understand each other.

You do?

What is she like?

She's nice and strong.

What's her type?

I don't know. Wouldn't she like all types?

Why? Do you need help nailing something in?

What?

You must need soybean paste.

Her mom is the Master of Fermented Soybeans from TV.

There are videos online of her preparing it with her eyes closed.

Is she a human cultural asset?

I think her business failed, so she is paying off her debt.

Who's that? Her boyfriend?

No way. He's pre-law. They've been friends since kindergarten,

so they've known each other forever.

So she isn't dating anyone.

Give me her number.

Why is he just staring?

How dare you not remember me?

Talk to me.

It'll be too humiliating if she rejects me again.

Do I even look pretty?

How high are her standards?

Even this face isn't good enough?

How do I win her over?

What's going on here?

Even with this, I accomplished nothing.

Get on the 6pm bus.

I'm coming home.

Hello?

It's me.

Are you offering me a loan or do you want to sell me land?

If you can't remember my face, at least remember my voice.

Park Se Gun?

I'm not the type of guy who calls girls first.

I'm not, but let's meet right now.

That's a long pause.

I can't.

Fine. Just five minutes.

If I miss this bus, the next one isn't for another hour.

Don't tell me I'm being rejected because of a bus...

although another bus will come an hour later.

Although I might never come back ever again.

Aren't you getting in?

- I'm getting in! - You're getting in?

Getting in?

What was that?

Mom! Mom! Mom!

Here's your ring.

You need to come home earlier.

Honey, I'm home.

Welcome home.

- Is it soybean stew again today? - Of course.

Don't you even drink? A man should drink, meet up with friends,

stay out all night, and go on business trips.

(Let's have coffee.)

I've never gotten a note from a guy before.

- But you have from girls? - Do you like guys?

Even if I were a girl, I'd like girls.

That's how much I like girls.

Then why did you...

It doesn't seem like it, but I wanted to be sure.

Are you and Mo Nan Hee dating?

Why must I tell you that?

Because I want to know.

And why do you want to know?

Isn't it obvious? Because she's pretty.

You like her too.

I know. You think if you stick around,

you may grow on her.

That's what you hope, right?

What's your deal?

I was right.

She may seem tough, but she's frail on the inside.

She's weak and gets hurt easily.

Don't play with her.

She started it first.

I thought she was avoiding me because of you, but I guess not.

Nan Hee would never like a guy who's too afraid to tell her...

of his feelings and threatens guys in secret.

I hope the next note will be from a girl.

The bakery out front has a new cake.

- Let's go. - Really?

Let's go.

Okay.

- It's Se Gun. - Awesome.

Be calm. Just be calm.

Nan Hee.

I need to talk to you today.

I'd love to!

Guys are annoying, right?

No way.

You're dressing like that to avoid annoying guys, right?

I'm not into showing my body.

It's because girls like you ignore dresses like that,

that it's been there for a month.

Come in.

This is insane. How can I go out in this?

Nan Hee.

Are you done?

Excuse me.

How do I look right now?

Pretty girls like you like hearing how pretty you are too?

I am pretty, right?

As long as I'm not blind.

I'll buy it for you. Just wear it out.

I'm not ready yet.

Go.

Go.

- Hi, Se Gun. - Hey.

Sorry, but I'm not in the mood to talk right now.

But I want to talk to you.

You look like a big banana.

So funny.

Her family's soybean paste is really good.

Let's go inside somewhere.

Later.

You're back.

Yes.

I've been here before.

Isn't she a fine arts major too?

You know the girl in the drawing class who's about this tall...

and has a free-spirited face.

Yes, I know her.

Why hasn't she been in class lately?

She's taking the rest of the semester off.

I see. That's why she said...

she was going to disappear.

Come to think of it, this week was the first time I saw you in class.

I would've noticed someone as pretty as you.

A seat opened up because she withdrew.

That's how I was able to get in.

The fork is dirty.

Can you do that?

The professor let me.

- What's her name? - What was it?

What was her name?

Mi Joo. Kang Mi Joo.

- Kang Mi Joo? - Yes.

Kang Mi Joo.

Forget it. Don't bother remembering the name of someone like that.

What do you mean by "Someone like that"?

I shouldn't even remember the name of someone like that?

- No. - Why not?

Because I don't like her.

She's ugly but she's sensitive and weak.

At least she'd seem cool if she gave up on love,

but she's desperate to be loved.

It's like she's begging to be seen.

She just loiters around people that she likes, and...

I don't like people like that. It's atrocious.

It's you, isn't it?

The one who goes drinking with guys and uses her as your backdrop.

- What? - Is that okay if you're pretty?

You're the one who likes only pretty girls.

Exactly. It's hard enough for her.

Don't badmouth her too.

It's atrocious?

Why is it atrocious to try to be loved?

Wanting to show the person that you're doing well...

and wanting to be accepted.

Do you know what that's like?

- Like you do? - And if I do?

How could you? How could you know...

with that face?

(Lady Fermented Soybeans)

I need to go.

Who's judging whom?

He was taking my side, when it comes down to it.

Darn it.

Whatever.

So? Will she be your model?

I should've asked her yesterday.

Try again. You said...

the best model...

is the first person you think of when making the outfit.

(Master of Fermented Soybeans)

I need to go.

Hey. Hey. Where are you going?

(Learn How to Make Fermented Soybean)

- Okay. Nice to meet you. - Hello.

I've only seen him on TV.

- Jessica Gomez. - Yes.

- Hello. - Thank you.

- Ok Dol Mae. - Yes.

Hello.

It looks like everyone's here.

Excuse me.

Oh, no. Oh, no. It's him.

- What? - The one who put the ring on me.

- What? - How did he find me?

The ring. The ring.

What? You brat. Your dad's right there.

- What am I supposed to do? - What about me?

Just three minutes. Please.

Please.

Are you here to try making fermented soybeans?

What's your name?

I'm not here to make fermented soybeans.

That's what everyone says at first. Please come here.

That's not why I came here. I came to see the daughter of...

Do you want to see my daughter?

Are you her father? Nice to meet you.

I lived in the US for a long time. I'm not really interested in...

I'm starting to become interested in fermented soybeans.

The fermented soybeans will mature here for a month.

You'll come back here to make soy sauce.

- Like this. - Shape it with your hands...

and pat it down carefully.

I think you should push it down here a little more.

There you go.

How did you know I was here?

On Hwa told me. She's in my club.

I see.

What shape are you making?

I'm making a heart shape.

It's harder than I thought.

If you hit it that hard, it'll crumble.

You should pat it down with your hands.

Pat it down?

That's not how you do it.

Pat it down like this. Give it some love.

Do you understand?

Wait.

I have a favor to ask.

Well...

Where's your mom? We're so busy here.

I'll look for her.

- Okay. - Continue.

Push it down harder.

Mom.

- Why did it take so long? - Hurry.

Hurry.

Gosh, that dress was suffocating.

What should I tell Se Gun?

Wait.

You're the girl from...

You're Kang Mi Joo.

What are you doing here?

Well...

Is it what I think it is?

Are you doing a part-time job again?

Yes.

I live right next door.

The rice paddle should be somewhere around here.

Where's Nan Hee?

Isn't she here?

Her mother sent her on an errand.

Gosh, she could have taken me with her.

Nan Hee's father said I could use the bathroom here.

Oh, it's right there.

Is this Nan Hee's room?

Hey, don't go in there.

You shouldn't intrude into someone else's room like this.

It was right here.

- What did you say? - It's nothing.

Did Nan Hee draw those?

They were just for practice. That's what she told me.

She's better than the members of my club.

Do you think so? Do you think they're good enough for the contest?

Still, I think she should be on the stage.

I see.

This would look great on her.

How could she wear something like that?

Why couldn't she? She's so beautiful.

You're right. Nan Hee sure is beautiful.

Are you close with Nan Hee?

Of course. That's why I work here.

Don't get too close with her though.

- Why? - She talks behind...

Never mind. I'm sure you can take care of it.

Nan Hee is different once you get to know her.

She sounds like an aggressive person,

but she doesn't mean it. Don't hate her.

How could I hate her? She's so beautiful.

Mi Joo.

Yes?

Give me your phone number.

It turns out that I paid for the drinks that night. Pay me back.

(Park Se Gun)

Mom, I gave him your number. If he ever calls,

don't pick up. Just let me know, okay?

I will.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

Please come to the club room by 2pm tomorrow.

What is this?

Once the contest starts, it's hard to find models.

That's why I brought student models from the nearby college.

Designers, see if any of them would be suitable for your works.

First-year art student, Pi On Hwa.

(Pi On Hwa, art student)

Second-year fashion design student, Park Se Gun.

Nan Hee.

I thought you were alone.

What's going on? Who is she?

This is Mo Nan Hee.

She's going to wear my work as my model.

Hey, wouldn't it be too long for her?

I'm going to wear what?

I need to talk to you.

Hey.

Is he making children's clothes?

Could he be going for a grotesque look?

What is it?

He said his model is his ideal type.

What?

Is that unattractive girl really Park Se Gun's ideal type?

You're crazy. Are you asking me to walk on the runway?

- Yes. - I can't. Find another person.

You have to. I made the dress thinking about you.

What?

When we first met at Namsan, you smiled at me.

I thought of that moment making that dress.

What are you talking about? When did we meet at Namsan?

We passed by each other in Namsan Park.

Don't you remember?

The dress is not for me. I'm sorry.

Wait.

What is he talking about, we passed by each other at Namsan?

It's impossible.

It's her. The art school queen.

She looks so beautiful in real life.

She's so beautiful.

She looks stunning.

She looks amazing.

- Mi Joo. - Surprise.

This person keeps calling me. I don't recognize the number.

- Take it. - It's here.

- What's that? - The only thing I look forward to.

Is this how spam messages look like these days?

"Hi, we met at Namsan."

You're right next to me. Who is this person?

I think I should call her.

Now that we kissed, we're together, right?

I saw you with Se Gun yesterday.

Se Gun and Nan Hee are together.

- What? - Does she go to our school?

"154240 Park Se Gun".

He's a fashion design student.

I see two Nan Hee's.

Am I getting sick? Do I need a shot?

Am I so pretty?

I wonder how the girl looks.

Please draw me.

Just the way you see me.

You said it was at Namsan that you first saw me, right?
