DECEMBER, 2007, WINTER OF EIGHTEEN

Ha-young, are you cross-stitching?

I'm giving it to Mr. Lee before winter break.

It's Christmas Eve on that day.

What about you? What did you get?

Ta-da. I bought a card.

- Isn't it pretty? - Will that be enough?

Your rival prepared something huge.

What's that? A muffler?

- I want to knit one too. - Do you know how?

Don't you?

I was hoping you'd teach me.

What a headache.

Ha-young, it's Christmas soon.

Is there anything you'd like?

Like for instance, a star in the sky.

Why? Would you get it for me?

Should I? Do you want a star?

You and your nonsense.

Should I make you see stars?

As long as I'm next to you.

I lose.

- Sol-yi, hurry up. - Sure.

Wait for me!

Here.

I'm fine.

Put them on. I'm not cold.

Thanks.

What?

It's dangerous.

I wish it would snow this Christmas. Don't you?

Sure.

Dad, you're the best!

Mr. Shin, I'm impressed.

Right? Isn't my dad awesome?

- Will I be able to do that? - Of course.

You need to help me.

Goodness.

My daughter has a crush on a boy.

No wonder she wanted to learn how to knit.

Who is he? Which prick dared to take my little girl—

Stay put, will you? You're driving me nuts.

We should ask Sol-yi. Sol-yi!

- Sol-yi— - Hey, stay still!

She hasn't written anything else. Let's see how it goes.

Our daughter is old enough to marry now.

Seriously, Gi-heon?

Get a grip on yourself.

Your daughter's only—

Hey.

What are you guys up to?

Your father wants to sing at this hour.

You can't.

Get back to your studies.

Sure.

Honey, please.

Cut it out.

Goodness, Heon.

- Hello. - Can we have a talk?

Sure.

There's something I'd like to ask.

How is Sol-yi at school these days?

Sorry?

Is there a boy she's particularly close to?

- Not really. - Think about it.

Isn't there someone she constantly hangs out with?

Not really.

Sol-yi's here. Have fun at school then.

Sure. We'll get going.

What would Heon know?

He's probably too busy studying all the time.

Who can it be?

You guys are so old-fashioned.

Knitting is so old-school.

Elementary kids wouldn't even do this.

Wang Se-hyeong, get lost.

- Give it back. - Yes, ma'am.

You guys are so boring.

Ha-young.

What does this look like? A muffler?

Yes.

A doormat, actually.

Right?

I think I'm screwed.

I'll never get it right.

How about a wish bracelet?

A wish bracelet? What's that?

It's a bracelet made by braiding thread.

You just have to wear it.

The day it wears off and snaps is the day your wish comes true.

Sounds nice, but is that easy to make?

Yes, super easy. Don't worry.

Great. What about you?

- It's so pretty! - Isn't it?

TO MR. LEE

Se-hyeong, good luck.

She's here!

What? What now?

I knew it, Kang Ha-young. Not that easy. I like that.

What is it? Just spit it out.

I'll give you a chance to be my girlfriend this Christmas.

How's that?

Wang Se-hyeong, are you out of your mind?

Sure, you can play hard to get at least once.

Being the man I am, I'll be generous.

You get three passes.

Kang Ha-young, be my girlfriend.

Hey.

Get lost.

Think carefully. This is your last chance.

I said, get lost. Am I insane?

I'll never say yes.

You're a funny one, Ha-young.

I thought I'd be generous.

Just live on your own and die old and lonely.

Who would like a wild girl like you?

I do.

Kang Ha-young, let's go.

Did I just lose against Jeong Jin-hwan?

So humiliating.

Hey.

That was loyal of you to swoop in and help.

Of course. I'll always be by your side.

Anyway, thanks again.

You should have thanked me later.

- Ta-da! - What's this?

I told you I'd get you a star.

Hey, this is a scam.

They're not officially recognized.

Still, the name of this star can't ever be changed.

This is the only star in space

that's named Kang Ha-young.

Okay. I appreciate it.

Thanks.

Cha Heon, this is for you.

Please. Don't accept it.

What's up?

All right.

What's the subject here?

- "Our group members," right? - He accepted it. Damn it.

What about the object?

How's the bracelet coming along?

It's Christmas Eve tomorrow.

Forget it. I won't give him anything.

Why not?

Mom!

Did you see a pink card in my room?

- What? - Have you seen a pink card?

- Sol-yi, who is that card for? - Hey.

Just stay still.

Is this card—

- Wait. Why is it cold? - It's chilly today.

Sol-yi, who is that card for?

What do you mean? I just bought it because it's pretty.

Hold on. Why does it smell like kimchi?

Dad, doesn't this smell sour to you?

I don't smell anything.

Anyway, what is that?

What?

Oh, this?

I was just testing a new pen I bought.

I told you.

Good night then, Sol-yi.

You, too, Mom and Dad.

Cha Heon, this is for you.

Sol-yi.

All right, guys.

The winter break of your junior year is crucial,

so study hard next week

and see you again in the make-up class.

- Got it? - Yes!

Great job.

Woo Dae-sung.

- What's up? - Why isn't it snowing?

Snow? The snow that falls from the sky?

They said it'd snow.

- Who did? - The weather forecast.

I've been calling them every day for the past week.

We're supposed to have heavy snow by now,

but why is the sky clear?

Do you believe the weather forecast?

Okay, here I go.

- Come here. - What?

- Take that! - Take that!

Ha-young.

Get down now. My heart's about to drop.

Shin Sol-yi, you go up there.

Why? I'm shorter than Ha-young.

- I can't reach up there. - Right. That's why I'm telling you.

Your center of mass is lower than hers,

so you won't fall off. I promise.

Hurry up.

Get up.

- Over there. - But...

Use this.

It's snowing!

- It's snowing! - It's snowing!

- Really? - No way.

- Wow! - It's snowing!

What the hell? It's fake.

- It's still pretty though. - Right?

Hey! Who did this?

It's one of you guys again, isn't it?

- We don't know. - What do you mean, you don't know?

Get out and sweep the ground.

Make it spotless, okay?

I don't think that's necessary.

What?

It's snowing for real now.

- My gosh. - No way.

The weather forecast was right.

Weather forecasters, I apologize.

It's so pretty.

Come on, Ha-young. I got this to walk you home.

You, too.

- It's snowing! - Sweet!

- Where are you going? - It's so pretty.

I don't want to wear this.

Just wear it. It's cold.

I don't want to.

Oh Hui-ji gave it to you.

My mom bought it for me.

Really?

No wonder!

It's pretty, it's super warm, and it smells so good.

Heon, close your eyes. I have a gift for you.

Open your eyes.

What's this?

A wish bracelet and a Christmas card.

Wear the bracelet every day. Your wish will come true.

Are you sure it's a bracelet? Isn't it a necklace?

It's not! Just wrap it around your wrist twice.

Let me put it on for you.

Once.

Twice.

Gosh, it's so pretty!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Thanks.

Sure. Merry Christmas to you, too.

That's so pretty! I'm home.

This is new. Whose muffler is this?

Where's the muffler I got you?

Oh, this?

- It's Heon's. - Cha Heon's?

Cha Heon? Of course.

Are you hungry I'll get you a snack.

Sure.

- Dad. - Yes?

Goodness, my daughter...

To my dad, Shin Gi-heon.

Dad, I love you.

No way. It was for me.

The "honey" was me. "Gi-heon."

Unbelievable.

Goodness.

- How is Sol-yi at school these days? - Sorry?

Is there a boy she's particularly close to?

Probably me.

Please think long and hard.

Isn't there someone she constantly hangs out with?

That would be me.

Sol-yi's here. Have fun at school then.

Sure. We'll get going.

What were you and Mom talking about?

Nothing. We talked about the weather.

I see.

I'm not following you.

I know. Who cares?

What are you doing here?

- I thought you were waiting for me. - Since when?

I must be out of my mind.

Then, I'll sit next to her.

- How did you get here? - All I did was follow you.

And I ended up here.

Is something wrong?

I have to go first, so I can't walk you home. I'm sorry.

Heon. Meet me at the trail over there in five minutes.

Everything looks so romantic.

I prepared this for you.

To hell with it. Sol-yi, be my girlfriend.
