[Scripting Your Destiny: Episode 2]

Samshins create books through long-term training.

All books are created with the power of the cinnamon trees and the milky way.

Every book is precious.

We hope for a good destiny.

But! How can you do such a haphazard job with this precious book?

Born in 1997. Entered school in 2004.

Graduated in 2011. Military Service.

Whatever. Live happily ever after, then dies.

What's the problem, samshin trainee?

Even a resume would be longer than that.

Human stories are all the same.

Besides, we're in Korea.

Through high school, you can basically copy and paste.

And honestly, adults are the same.

We can make templates for every neighborhood and field.

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.

It works, pretty much.

[2011: should be 2010]

- The date's wrong. - Again?

You know what's written in the book happens, right?

Thanks to you, this child will get a year behind in school.

Then he can just graduate a year early.

Please look at Ho Yoon and learn.

The narrative he sets up at the beginning

comes true every single year.

Every book he writes is a piece of art, a masterpiece.

- Aren't you ashamed of yourself? - Every god has his own style.

I'm aiming for lives with room for flexibility.

That "negative space" leads humans to die from accidents.

Hey, grandma. Get lost.

For an apprentice, you nag like an elder.

I'm not a grandma. Right?

According to our culture, samshins are grandmas from birth.

Right?

What is love?

What?

It was the sweetest meet-cute in years.

Why aren't they in love yet?

Does it make sense that...

they didn't even exchange numbers after sharing an umbrella on a rainy day?

I wanted to give it back, but I don't have his number.

Why don't you give it to Min Chang sunbae?

Sunbae comes often to your bank, right?

Is that the issue here?

Jung Ba Reum walked you home last night?

What? Che Kyung really left?

She did.

Sunbae, why did you bring a guy like that?

He's weird.

I agree.

Aren't you all friends?

He's not my friend. He's his friend.

What's the friend's phone number?

- Mine? - No, not yours. Your friend's.

The one who ran off.

Go ask her yourself.

Then I should run.

I'm leaving. Bye.

- What's wrong with him? - I know.

He should run to the right. He's going left.

To your right!

My goodness.

He was running without any direction.

So?

I didn't realize, but he got on the same bus.

You know how it rained all of a sudden?

I had to get off, but it was raining, and I didn't have an umbrella.

I thought I was screwed, but guess what?

I got off the bus, and it stopped raining suddenly.

Just above my head.

Daebak. It was Jung Ba Reum.

Yeah, he was holding up an umbrella.

Not even noticing his back was getting wet.

You don't have an umbrella, right?

Even if you do, don't take it out. So I don't feel awkward.

I didn't realize you lived in my neighborhood.

I don't live in this neighborhood.

I live in Cheongdamdong.

So why did you get on the bus to this neighborhood?

Because you were on it?

I followed you, Che Kyung.

At eleven o'clock on a rainy Sunday night?

I should be terrified right now, right?

Is that how it goes?

My back is all wet.

Even though I'm only holding the umbrella over you, Che Kyung?

I'm sorry.

I am being a bit strange today.

All of a sudden, I was on the bus.

All of a sudden, I was off the bus.

I wish it would keep raining until next year.

Maybe I'm just losing it.

But you know, I felt strange, too.

Strange, how?

A rainy night. A bus stop. A man you just met. An umbrella.

Doesn't that remind you of anything?

Not really?

Oh. I just thought of something.

Magenta Pink Rain?

[Magenta Pink Rain]

"Under a small umbrella...

the two of their shoulders almost touched, then didn't..."

Hey, are they going to kiss? Are they?

Crazy b♪♪♪♪. They just met. Just wait.

The two of them stood awkwardly at the crosswalk.

The red light flashes in front of them.

As the raindrops get thicker...

their breathing gets closer, too. But right then...

Vroom - a car drives past, threateningly.

The man pulls the woman's arms toward him.

♫ Carefully realize who you are... ♫

They are so close that they can feel each other's breathing.

♫ Got swept away by you ♫

You're not hurt, right?

Yes, I'm fine.

You should look to make sure if you're okay.

I did. I don't think I'm hurt.

But you've ruined your clothes.

I'll go get some tissues or something.

Tissues won't help anyway.

If I walked you home looking like this, I probably won't win your number.

Let's see each other again sometime when I'm dry.

I'm all wet anyway.

You take this, Che Kyung.

I'll get going.

Where did he go? He was already wet! Why did he leave?

Who cares about dry clothes? You should have dried off together!

Hey.

But even the dialogue feels similar.

I know.

It has to be a coincidence, right?

It's fate. So what did he say after he got home? Look at your Kakao.

I don't even have his number. Why would I have his Kakao?

You are so stupid.

Hey. He left you his umbrella.

You should've said, "Hey, I need your number to return your umbrella."

What? Does he not look cute when he's soaked?

No. The opposite.

In that moment, Jung Ba Reum was so handsome.

His hair was all glistening...

He took me in his arms and looked down at me. The angle...

But why didn't I get butterflies?

You really are stupid.

Hey. If he is attractive, that should give you butterflies.

Fine. It's over now.

Have you heard of "Marriage Pact"?

What?

I heard the writer is called Yang Mi Soon.

That's your mom's name, right? Daebak! That's so cool!

I feel like I know her. I love it.

But do you watch that drama?

I have no time to watch a drama with my new job.

Look. I'm already late. I have to go.

Okay. Bye!

Go Eun Sun! I mean, Go Che Kyung!

It's raining again. Even the heavens say, this umbrella belongs to you. Bye.

I haven't heard "Go Eun Sun" in a while.

[Kim Young Gyu]

[Go Che Kyung]

This person is fated to have three names.

[Go Che Kyung]

[Monthly Bestseller: Marriage Pact]

[Marriage Pact]

You can have the book. Can you let go of my finger?

Why would you let it go?

- It's good for the book to sell more copies. - You think I'm going to buy a copy?

Or don't. This book is in high demand. Sold out everywhere.

Actually, I'm more interested in the writer than the drama.

What do you want to know?

What kind of men does she like?

What?

You can buy this book. A book is nicer than an e-file, anyway.

What was that?

Does he know who I am?

Number 4444.

That's the landlord of our building.

He's the landlord?

I thought he looked young from afar.

But up close, he looks like a kid.

Gosh, must be nice.

To be a kid and own a building.

- Get in. - Me? Why?

I'm on my way to the coffee shop. Get in.

You recognized who I am.

Your mom must have told you about me very often.

To set you up with me, no?

Not very often.

She mentioned you one time. Just one time.

But how did you know my mom runs the coffee shop?

You look exactly like your mom.

You have a sense of humor. Where are we going?

If you said you are a time-traveling version of your mother, I'd believe you.

I get why my mom likes you.

Handsome insincere men are my mother's kryptonite.

Is that it? Am I kryptonite-level good-looking?

You didn't hear the "insincere" part?

I heard the coffee shop is doing very well these days.

He must be a wannabe writer. He's always writing.

Oh, right. Can you review his writings later?

No way. A privileged kid going after my line of work? I'm not helping.

I'm worried he'll quit writing and try to take over our shop.

If a coffee shop does well, the landlords always

take over and run it themselves.

Our fate is in our landlord's hands.

Our landlord is really like that?

- What is he like, really? - Well, you saw.

He's handsome. Tall.

He has a full head of hair. He's so nice to look at!

Does that constitute a personality for you, Mom?

I don't know if it's doing well.

But my mom says this often these days.

That our landlord has such a nice personality.

He's good, not greedy.

A rare gem. She says that every day.

Your mother is lying to you.

She told me, money is everything.

She told me that's why she likes me.

I have too many books, don't I?

I keep buying them but still can't catch up to my reading pace.

You can't catch up to your reading pace? Not the other way around?

You can't catch up to your buying pace?

But if you read a lot,

don't you become more attuned to grammar and spelling?

[Wentout for a second pleese wait]

I am, but this isn't my car.

It's a friend's car.

He got it as a gift from a five-year-old boy.

A friend he can't see anymore, or something like that.

It's a piece of memory. From 20 or 30 years ago.

Sorry. I was out of line.

But your friend had a car 20 years ago?

Probably more like from 120 years ago?

If he had a car then, he must've worked for the Japanese.

I heard he was in Manchuria back then.

He had mandoo? (Dumplings)

Should we change the subject? How was your first love?

You just met me and want to talk about first love?

That's quite an extreme shift.

What if you were someone else's first love?

And then you met him in a fateful moment?

You couldn't help but fall in love, right?

Keep your eyes on the road, please.

Actually, watching the road means little to me.

What the? He's a total nutjob.

Please keep your eyes on the road. Drive.

He won't tell us to move out, would he?

Mom, did you show my picture to the landlord?

- No. - Then...

Did you tell him I write for TV?

- No way!

Are you sure?

The minute he saw me, he knew I was your daughter.

That's because you and I look so much alike.

That makes no sense!

But you met with our lord? How? Where? What did you do?

Did it feel organic?

I gave Jung Ba Reum your number.

Why? I told you not to!

Do you remember? In the novel you wrote,

the main character's friend always gives out her number.

So freaking awkward.

[Ba Reum sent a photo]

The shirt that drowned in the dirt is getting resuscitated at the laundromat.

I just heard the prognosis. It probably won't make it.

I'm shopping to ease my grief. Which shirt should I get?

Oh, it's Jung Ba Reum, btw.

Does he want me to pay for it?

In "Magenta Pink Rain," this is where he calls...

Hello?

It's Jung Ba Reum.

Right.

Why is your timing always so right on?

Is that so? I'm glad I called, then.

You have to return my umbrella.

Oh, your umbrella. I was going to give it to Min Chang sunbae.

No.

I'd like to see you using that as an excuse.

[Where Dreams and Leaves Grow]

Daebak. Your piece is in this!

Our Korean teacher must be crazy. I'm so embarrassed.

Why is this in the school lit magazine?

Hey. Even in Times New Roman, it's so good.

"I'd like to see you using that as an excuse."

"Should we meet at that bus stop then?"

Where should I meet you?

Should we meet at that bus stop then?

Che Kyung?

Hello?

What's wrong? Who called?

Mom, where's my copy of the lit magazine? From high school.

Which box did you put it in?

The boxes are at home.

- But I lent out the lit magazine. - To whom?

- The landlord. - The landlord?

Why would you lend that to him?

I ran into him in the elevator, and he had such a sad face.

I'm looking for something, but it's not easy to find.

Do you like romance movies or novels by any chance?

Is there anything you've read recently that you really liked?

I'm busy with the coffee shop. I don't have time to read...

Oh. I was cleaning the house and read something my daughter wrote.

Stop it. Don't do this.

- Was it good? - Of course. My daughter wrote it.

Stories of first love are always great.

Could I read that?

[Magenta Pink Rain]

[Third Year, Class 3, Go Eun Sun]

Why is her name Go Eun Sun?

Is it a typo?

What is this?

The last guy was so sloppy with this.

No wonder he got eliminated.

Hey, Shin Ho Yoon!

I finally found a bottle of Romanée Conti from 1972!

I told you not to bring in Western alcohol into the sacred Chilsung Hall.

Jung Ba Reum again? Just stop it.

Having affections towards humans never ends well.

Don't insult me.

I'm not that stupid.

I am creating a perfect piece of art through pragmatic calculations.

What are you doing?

Are you copying that? A high school lit magazine?

Here, you can see the depths of humanity that gods cannot understand.

Cringe. Butterflies. I like cringe.

So you're plagiarizing?

You're using a novel that a human wrote to write a destiny?

Plagiarizing? Could you not use such strong language?

Hey. How can a god plagiarize someone's destiny?

It's different. They eat ramen here, but in my version, they have naengmyun.

- How is that the same? - Wow, you crazy bastard.

What am I supposed to do? I don't have any ideas.

But this book does.

[Magenta Pink Rain by Go Eun Sun]

He borrowed it about a week ago.

He must really like it if he's holding onto it for so long.

Never mind. What's his phone number? No, where does he live?

I think this is done. It's perfect. They will fall in love.

If you don't get love, ask me.

I might do other things half-a**ed, I do well with love.

First, sparks need to fly. Then, you hold hands.

For love to happen, you need to isolate them.

You go to an island, but there are no boats out. Then the inn only has one room left.

Can we change the island to a mountain?

[Daegwanryung]

♫ Carefully realizing what you've done now ♫

♫ Carefully realizing you are ♫

Why does it always rain when we meet?

I might've prayed too hard for it to rain until next year.

♫ Magical, mystical ♫

Perfect.

I think they will fall in love.

I told you how I felt first. Why are you doing this to me?

If we've gotten this far-

♫ I want to be loved ♫

♫ I want to make love ♫

♫ I wanna fall in love with you. ♫

♫ A random moment in time we brushed shoulders ♫

♫ Be by my side ♫

♫ I want to make love ♫

♫ The wind is blowing, taking us somewhere ♫

♫ Without a word ♫

♫ Nobody knows ♫

♫ Go as it flows ♫

♫ Fly with your eyes closed ♫

♫ Beyond the starlight ♫
