Original subtitles

Shit.

Hi, Gyeong.

Why do you keep coming between us? I want to hang out with my fiancée.

I'm asking you why!

Gyeong...

Let's go.

-What was that? -What happened?

Quick, move!

Move! Get out of my way!

Get him!

SECRET

Are you...

SECRET

...looking for this?

Look at you, you must have been desperate.

-You... -Have you been having fun?

-How? -You have had a crush on me for a decade,

but I guess you don't know me well enough.

I know you didn't have a choice, but...

I'm kind of disappointed.

-Who the hell are you? -You won't remember it even if I told you.

Because we'll move on to the next scene soon.

I had no idea what he was talking about at first.

As of today...

we're not engaged anymore.

You suddenly call it off after ten years?

Unbelievable. My character is capable of saying things like this?

Oh, my goodness.

By the way, is your lip all right?

I know this world is not even real, but it hurts all the same.

Character? Not real? What you said was nonsense to me.

But as it turned out, that nonsense was really happening.

WE'RE NOT ENGAGED ANYMORE.

Everything started to make sense after I read the book.

What was even funnier

was that there were other people who already knew that.

You know Dan-o and I are engaged, right?

It was fun to watch. He was a mere extra but was trying so hard.

Do-hwa, now.

You knew all this time?

You're the one who made me look like a fool first.

You have been acting like a know-it-all

with that nameless extra shit. That's why he has disappeared.

Watch what you say about us.

You're just an extra.

Did you think you finding your ego would have made you the protagonists?

What if you disappear too?

Don't kid yourself, Dan-o.

You're just an extra.

You're an extra that could disappear at any moment

because of your heart disease.

SECRET

YES, YOU. WHAT'S YOUR NAME? YOU WANT TO BE THE NEW MEMBER?

Ha-ru has really disappeared.

-Have you seen Ha-ru? -Who is Ha-ru?

Ha-ru! He's number 13 in our class.

What are you talking about? Mo-beom is number 13.

Hey, Dan-o. I think there's something wrong with your head too.

-What the hell. I was just worried. -Let's just go.

Dan-o, are you all right?

-Dan-o. -Dan-o.

Dan-o, did you come to school like that?

-Sae-mi, have you seen Ha-ru? -Ha-ru?

-Who is Ha-ru? -Ha-ru! Don't you know Ha-ru?

Dan-o, what's wrong? What's going on?

Do-hwa, what do we do? I think Ha-ru...

He has been removed from this world.

I warned him that this might happen.

And he made a choice.

Then Ha-ru was helping us knowing that this could happen?

Yes.

But you have never told us Ha-ru could disappear.

I warned you many times

that everything would go wrong if you changed even one thing.

You should be relieved. At least it's just him.

How could you even say that?

Now we don't know what could happen next because you changed the story.

How far are you going to ruin this world just to save yourself?

Are you saying...

Ha-ru has been removed because of me?

Yes.

Because it's you who changed the story.

Ha-ru!

Ha-ru!

Dan-o! That's enough.

Then what should I do?

I might be able to find him if I can see the continuity. But I can't see anything.

What if Ha-ru has been removed completely?

Looking for him like this is the only thing I can do for him right now.

Ha-ru!

I think that one is better than the one we saw earlier.

I agree.

You mean this one?

Hey, Gyeong. Take this. It's for her.

Let's go home. I think Jun-hyeon is waiting for us.

Why aren't they here yet?

Are you waiting for someone?

My goodness. I didn't expect to see you here.

And you are...

I heard so much about you from Chairman Eun.

He's Mr. Baeck, the CEO of Silver Moon.

I'm Baeck Dae-seong.

-What a small world. -Tell me about it.

So you visit your stores yourself. You're as meticulous as they say.

No wonder why your company is one of the top in the world.

Did you buy a gift for someone?

My son insisted that his gift for his fiancée should be a Seuline bag.

-You're talking about Dan-o, right? -Dan-o?

Chairman Eun's daughter that I told you about.

Now that we're acquainted, why don't we have dinner with our children sometime?

That sounds good.

-I'll see you soon then. -Sure.

He should have done that sooner.

Do you call this a gift?

I think you're just using me.

Watch what you say.

Father, I feel sorry for Dan-o for the first time.

Just think of it as doing a good deed for that poor dying girl.

Isn't it more like doing something cruel?

Stop being rude. How could you talk to your father like that?

Pick it up.

I said, pick it up.

Gyeong.

Gyeong!

I warned him that this might happen. And he made a choice.

Are you saying Ha-ru has been removed because of me?

Yes. Because it's you who changed the story.

I thought about it all night long.

I'm never going to do it again.

I'll do everything the writer wants me to do from now on.

Please tell me...

How I can find Ha-ru?

Nothing comes without a price.

You said you wanted to change your character, right?

Your price is Ha-ru.

We should kick it at this angle.

-But this is so hard. -No, not like that.

Concentrate your mind on your foot.

Then you can kick the ball into the corner of the goal.

I'll show you. Just wait.

Girls will go crazy about it on sports day or what!

-They won't! -They won't!

-They won't? -My gosh.

-Nam-ju is coming. Yes, it's him. -Nam-ju?

Why don't we ask Do-hwa to play soccer with us?

Hey, hush.

What did you just say?

-What? -What?

Come here.

-Us? -Us?

Didn't I say Do-hwa was expelled from the A3?

I know.

-But still, Do-hwa is... -Hey, stop talking.

Do-hwa isn't as good as before. Right?

-You're right. -He lost to Nam-ju in the swimming race.

-Yes. -You were really good.

Do-hwa... No, Nam-ju.

Do-hwa will never be as good as you, Nam-ju. You're the best.

-I'm the best? -Of course. You're the best.

Hey, what are you guys doing?

Why? What's the matter?

-Actually, if we hang out-- -Hey, don't!

-Why not? -"Why not?"

-Stop, guys. -What did I do wrong?

Is it because of Nam-ju?

We were just about to go inside anyway. Let's go.

I'm so hungry now. Let's go to the canteen.

-Let's go. -I want to go to the canteen.

God, this is so childish.

Listen, Do-hwa. About what you said at Nam-ju's birthday party...

Forget it.

I tried so hard to tell her that. But I'm telling her to forget it?

What?

Just forget about it. I think that's for the best.

Thank you. You're a good friend.

I guess you and I can never be more than just friends in the stage.

-See you later. -See you.

Do-hwa, didn't I tell you that you're not A3 anymore?

I just wanted to play the violin, not because someone wants me to...

but because I truly want to and see how it feels.

It's comforting somehow.

Nam-ju.

-Let me ask you one thing. -What is it?

If you could watch Ju-da and me spend time together as if you were a god,

what would you do?

I wouldn't watch it. I would never do such a cowardly thing to a girl I like.

You are cool even outside the story.

I feel bad because it feels like I'm cheating.

What do you mean, cheating?

You're no match for me.

You're right. I wish I had realized that sooner.

Then, your birthday party would have been cooler,

and Ju-da would have been happier.

And Ha-ru would have been still here.

Then Dan-o wouldn't be so sad now.

Nam-ju.

I'm sorry.

Is that you, Ha-ru?

Aren't you going to the music room?

Drink this.

Stop acting up.

Dan-o, I heard there is a really good bakery nearby. Let's go try there.

Bakery? Let's go with Ha-ru. Ha-ru also likes...

Ha-ru?

Ha-ru? Hi-loo?

Come on, you're so out-dated. How about Eun-Ha ?

-What does that mean? -It's short for "Eun Dan-o, hi."

That's so lame. Dan-o, Hi-loo !

Attention, everyone.

The melody you're going to play today

can be completely different depending on who plays it.

So look at the sheet music carefully and play it accurately.

Okay, then. Does anyone want to try it? How about number 13?

-Yes, sir. -Number 13? Ha-ru?

But Ha-ru is supposed to be number 13.

Seriously? Nobody remembers him?

How could you?

How could you not remember him?

Dan-o, what's the matter?

Let's go outside.

Dan-o, are you out of your mind?

You do remember him, right?

Please.

You know Ha-ru, right?

Yes. I do.

So, stop it. Please, Dan-o.

Why are you like this?

I'm feeling under the weather today.

Is it because of Ha-ru?

He is a part of it...

What?

Gyeong, did you...

Since when? Does Dan-o know? Does she?

Dan-o will be glad to hear that you have an ego now.

Maybe not. She's still so devastated because of Ha-ru.

It's so comforting to know that you have your ego now.

Even I have no idea where the story is going now.

Hey, Dan-o. Why do you keep sitting in my seat?

All right. I'm sorry.

Don't mind me.

Dan-o.

Ha-ru...

Is this about that bastard again?

Why don't you scream like you did earlier?

Go away.

Why do you have to be so miserable over a mere extra?

Hey.

Hey, I'm talking to you...

Hey.

Get in the car.

No need. My driver will be here soon.

I said, get in. Please!

Get in the car, please.

Hey.

Why don't you just get in?

Are you okay?

You have been crying all day.

Press this against your eyes.

Are you that sad?

You haven't been eating properly and have been crying all day.

Yes.

I'm so sad that I feel like I'm going to die.

Because I think it's all my fault.

I will do what he did with you.

I can help you change the story.

Only Ha-ru can do that.

You're talking about him again?

Did he ask you to try to change this world together?

You can live a comfortable life without changing anything.

You have a nice house, a loving family, and good friends.

But I'm going to die soon.

If the writer decides to make me die right here, I will die right away.

That's just how my character is.

A high school girl who is terminally ill and could die at any moment.

-Hey... -Meanwhile,

all the time I got left

is spent only for the protagonists or more important characters like you.

I'm your fiancée

and a classmate of Nam-ju and Ju-da. But before all that, I'm Eun Dan-o.

I'm so desperate for more time being myself.

You will never know.

Good night.

Are you Ju-da?

What are they for?

Just accept them. A student of Seuli High shouldn't live like this.

A broken bike and a part-time job...

Well, I guess you must be desperate for money since your grandma isn't well.

How did you know that?

I heard it from Nam-ju.

From Nam-ju?

You're our foundation's scholarship student after all.

I think he has a lot on his plate, including our company image.

There. If you ever need anything else,

feel free to call this number.

I appreciate your concern, but I can't accept it.

Just take it before I change my mind.

You see, there are times when you should swallow your pride.

Let's go.

I'm such a fool...

How dare you knock on the A3 door?

I have been looking all over for you.

Me? Do you have something to tell me?

Here. I thought I should give this back to you.

What are you doing?

I enjoyed playing Cinderella thanks to you.

Cinderella?

The glass slippers, ballgown, and golden carriage...

They all go back to normal at midnight.

I felt so pathetic about myself.

Goodbye, Nam-ju.

One, two, three.

Welcome to Seuli High Sports Day!

112TH SEULI HIGH SPORTS DAY

THIRD PLACE, WINNER

STAFF

HANI HOSPITAL MEDICAL SUPPORT

Please, no!

It's so hot in here. Shouldn't I be wearing a t-shirt at least?

Or have less work?

I know it's a comic book but not a single scene of studying?

This is a high school in Korea. Don't you think it's too unrealistic, Mr. Writer?

Wow, what's all this?

-What is this thing? -This?

I know it is lame, but doesn't it look good on me?

Dan-o's class t-shirt is even worse.

You looked so down until yesterday. Are you feeling better now?

How did you know that? You worry about me a lot.

I'm just trying to stay cheerful.

Right? I can tell you're trying.

-It's impossible... -What? What's going on?

NAM-JU AND THE KIDS

Hot pink... This is so tacky.

"Nam-ju and the Kids"? This is so childish!

Five players from Class 2-7 are getting ready for the race.

Look at our classmates rooting for them. They're so energetic.

All right, it looks like the race will begin soon.

Okay. Get set, go!

Run!

Who is that? It's Yeo Ju-da!

Yeo Ju-da!

Yeo Ju-da comes in first! Win!

Yes!

Yes, Nam-ju yes!

Nam-ju, yes!

-Hi. -Hey.

I'm sorry, Ju-da. There has been a misunderstanding.

Let me explain. What? You don't want to?

Hey, Ju-da. You owe me an apology. I never did such a thing.

What are you doing here?

What? Well...

Can't you see? I'm practicing soccer.

Soccer, my ass. You're practicing your apology.

You don't need to try so hard. Your problem will resolve soon.

You're the protagonist after all.

Wait.

Don't tell Ju-da about this.

-I won't. -I trust you.

I envy you. You guys will have a happy ending in the end.

Ready.

-Let's do this! -Let's do this!

-Let's do this! -Let's do this!

-We can do this! -Let's do this!

-Nam-ju! -Hey, Nam-ju!

-Hi, Nam-ju. -Hi.

-Look, that's Nam-ju! -That's Nam-ju!

-Hold it tightly. -One, two...

-What are you doing? -Hey!

Next challenger.

-Sae-mi, let's do this. -What are you doing?

Who is throwing at me?

Everyone seems so excited.

Ha-ru is not here, but the world goes round as if nothing has happened.

Okay. Next is the three-legged race.

If there's anyone who wants to participate, please come to me--

It's so loud. Su-cheol, turn off the mic.

It's so hot. Who would want to do that? We are not kids.

I'm just doing as the teacher said.

I'll do it! Gyeong, let's do it together.

You take a break. It's so hot. Gyeong, I'll do it with you.

-No! -Break it up!

BAECK GYEONG LOVES DAN-O

The writer is so mean.

Gyeong, are you running the three-legged race too?

Of course he is. She's his fiancée after all.

-Fiancée? Right. -Nice!

-Gyeong! -Gyeong!

-Gyeong! -Gyeong!

-Gyeong! -No way!

-Gyeong! -Stop it!

-Why did you prepare this? -Just because. I'm so happy now.

Why?

You know, I have never been to a sports day before.

I feel so happy because our moments are more special now.

Dan-o. Where are you going?

The stage is over.

But it didn't matter when you were with him.

You have no choice but to be by my side.

-Because of my character. -No, because that's who you are.

Being by my side no matter what, that's who you really are.

Don't you think you and I have changed too much because of that mere extra?

Nothing has changed.

Because the real me never had a crush on you.

Tie it tightly, or you'll hurt yourself.

Dan-o, are you sure you can do this?

Of course, I can. I have Gyeong with me.

Wow, the power of love is amazing.

Okay. One, two...

This is too cruel.

I don't want to do this. I don't want to be here.

I hate everything here.

-There you go again. -Just a second.

-What is he doing? -What?

-How could you leave her like that? -Hey.

Ha-ru?

HA-RU

Ha-ru...

NAM-JU AND THE KIDS

I was looking for you.

What the hell?

Teacher told us to practice dodgeball.

Are you all right?

There you are.

I thought this T-shirt was so tacky. But now I'm glad we're wearing it.

Because I could find you from afar.

I'm never going to lose you.

What are you doing? You're creasing it.

What?

Just talk. Don't touch.

Gyeong, let's go.

Dan-o!

Why is he here?

HA-RU, 18 YEARS OLD TENNIS CLUB MEMBER, FOLLOWS GYEONG AROUND

Hey, that guy next to Gyeong... Isn't he Ha-ru?

What's the matter?

Let's go.

HA-RU, 18 YEARS OLD TENNIS CLUB MEMBER, FOLLOWS GYEONG AROUND

It is Ha-ru. But why is he here?

What's going on? He really follows Gyeong around?

It's just like the character description.

Gyeong.

How could you. You're pretending like you don't know me because I'm not A3 anymore?

Well... I'm sorry.

-Who is he? -He's in my tennis club.

Hi, Do-hwa.

What? He even has a line now?

Hi. I know it's not easy to hang out with Gyeong.

He can be a rude jerk sometimes, but he's a good guy.

Do-hwa, I'll talk to Nam-ju...

Come on, it's okay. Just stay out of it. It's between Nam-ju and me.

I got to go. See you guys later at the soccer game, okay?

You know fair and square, right? See you.

Ha-ru!

-Where were you? I was so worried. -Worried?

Come on, stop kidding around. You're hurting Dan-o.

I think you're the one who's kidding. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Let's go.

Hey, Gyeong. It seems odd to you too, right?

He's definitely Ha-ru, but he's not the one I used to know.

What are you doing? Aren't you coming?

-I'll go first then. -Sure.

Hey, who is he really?

Ha-ru.

My dad sent these for you in the morning. Enjoy.

It's so refreshing.

-What did your parents prepare for today? -A few food trucks with chefs.

My mom sent a few baristas. But come to think of it, food trucks sound better.

But still, yours is better than mine.

My grandpa sent massage chairs to every classroom.

Everyone is trying so hard for today.

I'm sure there're no free-riders? Right?

Come on, don't say that. You're hurting Ju-da's feelings.

Ju-da, take these home. It's your chance.

You don't get to have these every day.

STRAWBERRY MILK

-Here. -Thanks.

How did you know I like strawberry milk?

-I saw it in the book. -In the book?

We should drink it with a straw, right?

I think you know me quite well.

You are really my guardian angel.

I'm not good enough for that.

Sorry?

What kind of guardian angel does nothing when you're bullied?

I feel sorry for so many things. For you and other guys too.

Hey, your class T-shirt looks so cute.

I didn't know you could be sarcastic.

No, I'm not. I think you're cute.

You're like Nam-ju.

You're adorable, pretty and cute even outside the story.

I feel sorry for everything including what happened to Ha-ru...

I think I have been so selfish.

Ju-da.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing? Are you not going to practice?

Yes, I will.

You never listen to our teacher, why now?

Hey, aren't you guys tired?

-Exactly. -Besides, we don't have enough men.

Right?

Hey, if A3 wants to do it, you guys do it.

-Sure, you're always right. -Wait for me.

He's right. You guys should just do it.

Ju-da's not here for the first time in a while.

I'm coming too.

-Wait, where are you going? -Hey, wait for me.

Hey, Ha-ru.

I don't think you're lying.

But I'll find out soon

if you're just pretending or you have really lost your memories.

Ha-ru, you don't remember me?

You once blocked the ball for me when we were playing dodgeball.

You didn't have a name back then, but I knew you were going to come save me.

You really don't remember?

-Hurry! -It's coming this way.

-We won! -We won!

-We won! -We won!

-Ha-ru! -Ha-ru!

Ha-ru, are you going to play in the soccer game?

I'm just a substitute.

You play soccer too? Aren't you in the tennis club?

Gyeong put him on the list. I think he'll even die if Gyeong tells him to.

Here. Gyeong asked me to give you this.

You don't have the scar?

You had the diagonal scar on your palm.

No, I have never had any.

Gyeong.

-Hey. Did you give it to her? -Yes.

She collapses too often. She's so annoying.

I needed to give her something to make her bother me less.

-Is that so? -Hey, Ha-ru.

-When we were playing dodgeball earlier... -Dodgeball?

When did we play dodgeball? I didn't.

We played it earlier.

Our team won thanks to you eliminating Dan-o.

What are you talking about? Did you have a dream or something?

Stop talking nonsense and practice for the match already.

Don't you want to defeat Do-hwa fair and square?

I'll go ahead first.

As I thought,

you only remember what happens in the stage but not the shadow.

Because you don't have your ego anymore?

What are you talking about?

MVP OF THIS YEAR OH NAM-JU

-Oh, there's Gyeong. -Let's go, my Gyeong!

-Gyeong! -Gyeong!

Nice.

-That was cool. -Wow, Gyeong.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm not in the mood for this.

Even if you're not in the mood, you need to root for him!

Gyeong, that was nice!

HA-RU

Hey.

-About Dan-o. -Yes.

You know her, right?

Of course. Everyone at school knows her. She's your fiancée.

I thought you two were close.

-Me? -Yes.

Why would I be? She's your fiancée. You should take care of her.

Of course. I should take care of her, not someone else.

You came back as a totally different person.

What do you mean?

I'm saying I like the new you.

His face and name didn't change, but he doesn't remember anything?

His character has specific roles now,

and he even appears in the stage.

SECRET

Is he just pretending

or does he really not remember anything?

Will it be someone's character that's going to be changed?

Or will it be someone's story?

"Yearning." That's the meaning of that flower.

What the hell are you doing?

So it's true. You're really Ha-ru.

Your personality seems different,

but I guess it's close to the personality you had before you met us.

What about your palm? It doesn't hurt anymore?

Are you insane?

It's my first time to experience this kind of thing,

so I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not.

Well, we'll find out as time goes by.

-Your swing should go up... -Exactly.

from the waist down.

-That's for tennis. -No, it's not.

-Go up using your back strength. -Yes, exactly.

You're using your wrists too much.

Hot pink... It stands out too much.

I wish I couldn't see him.

-No. -That doesn't look right.

-You're getting there but try harder. -A little more.

-Use your legs too. Lightly. -Use your back. Lightly.

What do you mean I use my wrists...

If producer Kim Tae-ho finds out about the camera going to Yu Hui-yeol...

I'm never going to lose you.

What are you doing? You're creasing it.

Dan-o, aren't you getting the door?

I think it's someone you'll be glad to see.

Okay, I'm coming.

You didn't have to bring such a thing.

I know it's rude to visit at this hour,

Gyeong kept pestering me to come here.

Dan-o, Gyeong came bearing a gift for you.

What am I doing?

-Please come on in. -Okay.

-Gyeong, you're becoming more handsome. -That's very flattering.

Please excuse me. I'm not feeling very well.

-Are you feeling unwell? -Let's go to the hospital--

Bullshit. I know you're not worried at all.

And this one. I didn't buy it.

-You did to win favor with her father. -Hey, are you crazy?

Why do you care? They won't remember anything anyway.

It doesn't matter who bought it. It's still a gift for Dan-o.

For Dan-o?

Mr. Eun. I'm asking out of curiosity.

Can't you tell my father is using your sick daughter to win favor with you?

-Hey, Gyeong! -Are you insane?

Of course I'm sane, unlike you people.

-Gyeong, you're becoming more handsome. -That's very flattering.

Wow, it must have been so hard to get one of these.

Thank you, Gyeong.

He must have had a reason to want to come here at this hour.

I wanted to see her happy face as soon as possible.

My goodness. I didn't know you were so romantic.

I'll commit myself to her.

I think Gyeong can't wait to marry you.

How about we set their wedding date?

If Dan-o wants, anything can be done.

Now, please help yourself.

Did you have to do that?

I'm free to do whatever I want when I'm not in the damn stage.

Shouldn't you at least feel sorry for my family?

You know your family's using mine because of money.

So what?

I'm just doing as the writer drew.

Unlike you, I'm not trying to change anything.

But I keep getting annoyed and angry because of you.

-What? -Let me ask something.

What exactly do you want?

Escaping being an extra? Making your heart better? Or...

that bastard?

He can never change your fate. I'm the one who can change it.

No extras can do it. I, Gyeong who's engaged to you, can do it.

I'll help you. I mean it.

Chairman Eun thinks you really have feelings for Dan-o.

I just did what you said.

You did a good job.

If you ever talk nonsense about not marrying her again,

I won't consider you my son anymore.

Don't revolt. You might ruin everything.

Marry her no matter what.

Answer.

Okay.

Take it.

God, our CEO Baeck is so consistent.

I'm not just revolting. I mean it.

I can't say anything even when my own father uses me like a tool. God...

What a shitty character.

-What did you just say? -I told you, you won't remember this.

You piece of shit.

SECRET

Who's there?

Gyeong?

What are you doing here at this hour?

To get my racket. I have a practice tomorrow morning.

I was scared for a moment.

-What's that? -Oh, this...

I came to pick up an important book.

Have you...

seen this book before?

SECRET

No. Should I read it?

No. Not really.

What happened to your face?

I said what happened to your face.

-It's nothing. -Are you okay?

This is odd.

What is?

You're worried about me.

Why now, of all time,

why you, of all people.

I thought everything in this world was already decided.

I didn't know there were variables like this.

I don't want to be an extra that might disappear at any moment.

I want to be the one who can change someone's fate.

If there's no answer to my beginning, I'm going to find my own answer.

With Dan-o.

I have nowhere to go but here.

-Ha-ru has come back. -I know.

But he doesn't remember me.

Didn't you say you would do anything to bring him back?

Dan-o... You're so greedy.

What? Are you going to follow him around to help him find his ego again?

No.

I was really happy whenever I changed the story with Ha-ru.

No matter where the story was going,

I began to have the hope that I might survive.

I thought changing my fate

was making my own answer in this world.

But...

Now that Ha-ru is not here, everything feels so terrifying.

I tried to think that I should just carry on with my life as an extra,

but I'm so afraid.

I don't want to die.

Ha-ru was the only person who helped me find my own answer.

But now...

everything is ruined.

I will make my own answer.

With you.
