We plan to use your donation for scholarships for students that excel.

We'll leave that up to you.

No, not based on grades.

Give it to students who can't afford to pay for school lunch.

To the students who really need it.

My gosh. I had no idea Sun-oh was so thoughtful.

It must be because his father is a great person. He learned from him.

Of course.

Shall we take a picture?

Come here, Sun-oh.

-Come this way. -Come on. Let's take a picture.

Okay.

Okay.

Sun-oh, smile a little.

Seriously.

Here, why don't you hold this?

-My gosh! -Oh no.

-Oh no. -Are you okay?

Goodness.

Are you okay?

My gosh.

Which foot is it?

Oh no.

Hey, Sun-oh.

NURSE'S OFFICE

SOMEONE WITHIN A 10M RADIUS LOVES YOU

Jojo.

What are you doing here?

I came to meet our teacher…

What about Hye-yeong?

Is he doing well?

He's doing well.

What about you?

Are you

doing well?

I should go.

I wonder if this is it.

Chon Duk-gu…

Chon Duk-gu.

Yes, here it is.

STUDENT RECORD

But why do you want his address?

I need to ask him something.

Jojo. Didn't you know?

Duk-gu…

What do you mean? Chon Duk-gu's dead?

Are you crying?

Should I come to you? I'll come right now.

No.

That's not it.

I just…

I just hate myself, that's why.

What do you mean, you hate yourself?

When I heard that Duk-gu was dead,

I was afraid of the fact that I may be unable to

get rid of the shield.

Yes.

I got some nice pictures.

The donation was made under Sun-oh's name.

Yes.

"Hwang Jae-cheol's son, Hwang Sun-oh, donates scholarship funds

to his high school."

That's what it'll say.

Yes, sir.

She came to look for someone named Chon Duk-gu.

Do you know him?

Chon Duk-gu?

Figures.

You don't remember anyone but her and Hye-yeong.

She just came to ask for her classmate's contact information.

I guess she needs him or something.

-For what? -Hey.

She's Hye-yeong's girlfriend. Why do you care?

What you must do now

is think about how to pass that audition.

Although you'll probably fail.

At least pretend to read the script and practice.

Darn it.

IAM PENITENTIARY TO KIM GYEONG-HUI

Don't apologize.

It's not your fault.

I'll take care of it.

Still, Dad was a good person, right?

COURT OF LAW

You must be Lee Gang-rae's son.

I'm Kim Gyeong-hui's son.

We received a notice that he has a parole review coming up.

That's right.

I guess you didn't know your father was here.

That's correct.

NAME: LEE GANG-RAE CRIME: MURDER

Please call us if there's anything else you'd like to disucss.

Thank you.

Wait.

Would you like to meet him?

I'll think about it and get back to you.

Actually, I believed

that I could be freed from this shield at some point.

That one day, I'd be able to put it down.

IAM PENITENTIARY

I miss you.

Oh, you're pretty slow.

I finally get to see your face.

Gosh.

What was that?

What?

Look at this piece of junk.

It's not junk.

-It may seem like junk, but-- -What?

-Gosh! -Hey.

See? It is a piece of junk.

Jojo. Wait for me!

Don't follow me. It's embarrassing.

Wait for me, Jojo!

Have you ever been on a plane at night?

No.

You?

Of course,

I haven't.

I wonder how the world looks from up there.

It's probably all black, right?

We'll probably look like the night sky from above.

The city lights may look like stars.

What?

Should we look together next time?

At what?

The night sky.

Let's look down together from that plane.

Let's see whether or not the city lights look like stars.

Okay.

Here, take this.

What?

It's a down payment. We should go before it wilts.

Sure.

Damn it. He failed again.

Why does he bother with acting then? My gosh.

Explain to your father so he doesn't get upset, okay?

I'm sorry, sir.

I'll make sure he practices hard.

Are you upset?

Sun-oh!

Hey! Sun-oh! Hey!

Seriously?

Sun-oh, what happened to your audition?

This side seems okay.

Don't eat it.

Does it taste good?

No.

Should I go

to the event tomorrow too?

Really?

But the event will be full of reporters.

Really? What's gotten into you?

What do you mean?

How can someone change so drastically?

They say people only change when…

You're not sick, are you?

I don't want you to be sick.

Hye-yeong, is it nice to be working?

Well…

I'm not sure yet.

Maybe it will be once I get paid.

Have you met the CTO?

Brian Chon?

I haven't met him yet.

I heard he doesn't like meeting people.

I see.

We're here already.

That weirdo hasn't been back, has he?

Of course not.

Even if he does, I'll…

You remember, right?

Bye.

Okay. Good night.

Jojo!

I'm going to

keep liking you!

But you don't have to.

I mean…

You don't have to feel pressured.

Hye-yeong.

I'm the artist of The Ringing World. I've called you before.

I stopped by and left a note.

Do you even read these?

Please give me a call.

What time is the Badge Club press conference tomorrow?

It's from 4 to 6 p.m.

What do I have before then?

There's a shareholders' meeting until 4 p.m.

I'd like to meet the developer.

I heard you co-developed Love Alarm.

-Please help me. -Answer me, will you?

-Check your emails. -If you can't mail me, call me.

-Read them! -You fraud!

What an ass.

Please read my emails. I wrote to you so many times.

This won't work either.

Please read them. Why won't you read them?

I wrote so many already.

Please read them.

I KNOW I'M PESTERING YOU, BUT

What's this?

IT'S GROWN UNBEARABLY LARGE

Gosh.

Jojo posted something again.

But she said she didn't want to become famous.

She's a total attention seeker.

Are you making a comeback?

What's with the shield? I'm scared that something might happen again.

There's no need to be. She's just looking for attention.

You're a moron if you fell for it.

The 23 people thing was a coincidence. It's not a prophecy.

It isn't a prophecy?

You don't know anything, so stop running your mouths.

Jojo!

I'm going to

keep liking you!

But you don't have to.

You don't have to feel pressured.

Oh, my back. Why does it hurt so much?

Damn it.

Gosh, darn it.

People are meant to sleep on beds.

What was that?

Hey, Jojo.

When did you come in?

You saw me and tried to scare me, didn't you?

My back's in so much pain right now.

Hey!

Are you ignoring me?

Damn it. She always ignores me.

This is so comfortable.

YEOLRIM HIGH SCHOOL

Jeez, I thought she was Mom.

What?

Mon-sun.

-Jojo. -Yes?

Do you want to live with me?

Move in with me. Please?

I'll be good to you. Please?

Hello, this is Brian Chon.

Are you meeting Brian Chon?

You're the artist of The Ringing World, right?

I'll wait for you in the Love Alarm office.

Oh, my.

Today's technology really is impressive. Take a look.

No matter how advanced medical technology is,

you can't move your eyes, nose, and mouth.

You can check whether or not it's him using these proportions.

But why are you comparing them? Didn't Chon Duk-gu already--

Just because.

I can't believe it, that's why.

It is kind of strange.

Hold on.

You said he created the app because he liked your cousin.

Yes.

Where is it?

Look at this.

Brian Chon also said he made Love Alarm because of a crush.

LOVE ALARM WAS CREATED FOR A CRUSH I HAD

As I expected.

What?

I'd believe you if you told me they were brothers.

How did he change this much?

He was cute to begin with.

But why did he reply all of a sudden?

He ignored you all this time when you asked him to meet.

I'll find out once I meet him.

Why are you in here?

You still haven't learned anything. I said not to come back here.

-Get out now! Now! -Mom!

What happened at the station? Did you get your money back?

Mom, what do I do now?

What? Why? What now?

He said he was a founding developer of Love Alarm, but he won't call me.

"Founding developer"? What are you saying?

I got an email address in exchange for dropping the charges.

Okay.

-But he's not writing me back. -You dropped…

Hey. What about the money?

Should I just drop dead somewhere?

Did you get the money or not?

Is that all that matters to you?

You didn't get it.

Gosh, you moron!

That brat. What's wrong with her?

I'm so stressed out.

It's so annoying.

What did I do wrong?

I'm so annoyed. Seriously.

Welcome to BJ Gul-mi's awesome shopping mall,

Love Mi.

I have lots of pretty clothes to show you today.

So please look forward to it.

CDG HAS ENTERED THE CHAT

Well…

Just a minute, please.

I'm off.

Okay. Bye.

-Bye. -Call me.

Jojo.

There's no other shield like this in the entire world.

YOUR HEART IS SAFE NOW

You can't tell anyone about this.

There's a chance

I could get rid of the shield.

I can finally put everything back into place.

Hye-yeong, did you sleep well?

I'm starting work late today.

Want to meet up for a bit at night?

Tonight?

Why? Is today a bad day?

You must be tired from working.

Yes. Sorry. I think so.

Then stay at home and rest up. I'll call you.

Okay.

STRAIGHT FROM THE FARM SWEET FRUITS

NO ONE WITHIN A 10M RADIUS LOVES YOU

The number you have dialed is currently out of reach.

You will be directed to voicemail after the beep.

Let's go around the back.

I LEFT STRAWBERRIES AT YOUR DOOR. ENJOY!

Over here!

No, over here!

LOVE ALARM 2.0 100-DAY ANNIVERSARY

There they come.

Look over here, please.

-Ms. Lee. -Over here.

-Mr. Hwang Sun-oh. Over here. -Sun-oh.

I had a really good dream last night.

What was it about?

I'll tell you later.

Look this way.

If it comes true.

Please come this way.

Yuk-jo, please give your interview first.

Once the reporter comes,

you can talk about what's changed since the 2.0 update.

What's changed?

How many showed up as people who love you, for example.

Things people may want to know.

SOMEONE WITHIN A 10M RADIUS LOVES YOU

PEOPLE WHO WILL LOVE YOU KIM JOJO

Make yourself comfortable in the VIP room until the event starts.

Go ahead.

This way, please.

Kim Jojo?

Tell me

why you wanted to meet me.

When I was in high school, a developer gave me a gift.

I was told it was the only one in the entire world,

and that I might need it.

Do you remember?

The shield?

Duk-gu.

You're Duk-gu, aren't you?

Anyway, what about the shield?

I want to get rid of it.

You wanted to hide your feelings while seeing how others felt.

That's why you chose to install it.

So why would you get rid of it now?

Not letting people know your feelings puts you in a position of power.

I have to

get rid of the shield.

Is that why you posted that on The Ringing World?

You should stop now.

You can't get rid of it anyway

since Duk-gu's gone.

Then who are you?

I was told that the developer could get rid of it.

Are you really…

the developer?

Whether or not I'm the developer, whether or not I'm Duk-gu,

I can't get rid of the shield.

I'll get off here.

As long as the shield is there,

there's no way I can be sure of my feelings.

Does this mean I can never be honest for the rest of my life?

What was that about a shield?

What is a shield?

Explain.

My Love Alarm didn't ring because of that shield.

Is that it?

Tell me.

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

Why do you need to apologize?

Does Hye-yeong know?

Inmate 3308, you have a visitor.

So you're Hye-yeong.

Mom.

Do I look a lot like Dad?

If you want to know what your father was like, look in the mirror.

Maybe…

That's why…

That's why I thought Dad may be a good person.

I thought

that I may be a good person,

Jojo.
