(Dreaming of a Freaking Fairy Tale)

I was being earnest when I said you were no Cinderella.

(CEO Moon Cha Min)

A warrior suits you better than Cinderella.

A brave warrior who can go wherever she wants.

You must've known as a kid that...

you were much cooler and stronger than you thought.

(Episode 10: To the Prince Charming Me)

Moon Cha Min...

Why must you be like this until the end?

Why did you have to tell me I'm strong and cool?

How did I become like this?

Seriously, I've had enough!

Why must I suffer because of you?

Mom. Don't go.

I'll be a good girl, Mom.

Mom.

I wasn't treasured as a kid.

Back then,

I thought I couldn't be loved like the others.

And since then, I have become smaller and smaller.

(RIP Shin Kwang Soo)

May he rest in peace.

Honey.

Honey...

What do I do now, honey?

What do I do?

Thinking someone as worthless as me had no right to cry,

I cried alone.

You've been hating yourself for a long time,

viewing the world through the lens of hatred.

But above all...

I've removed the lens for you.

Because I hated myself,

I couldn't tell you my feelings for you.

The truth is,

I was in pain because I couldn't love myself.

When I grow up, I want to become an invincible...

Prince Charming-like Cinderella who can do anything.

In the end, the only forever Prince Charming of your life...

is yourself.

That very self who will...

love yourself and live courageously no matter what you're like.

(Heo Young Bae)

- Hello? - This is bad, Jae Rim.

Chungdam Heaven wasn't taking a break. It went out of business.

To be more accurate,

it's reopening after firing everyone, including Mr. Moon.

What? Then what about Mr. Moon?

He lost everything overnight without any time to prepare.

His dad kicked him out, and his wedding went down the drain.

He's a goner.

What will he do from now on?

Who cares? We've got bigger fish to fry.

Jae Rim. Let's talk again later, okay?

Okay, bye.

What's going on, Moon Cha Min?

(Deutsch Air)

You're an amazing person, Do Hong.

But why?

I can't go with you when I have feelings...

for a different guy.

But things won't work out with him. Aren't I right?

I'm simply doing as my heart tells me to. I'm sorry.

I'm not asking you to like me right away.

Let's succeed together.

I'll help you.

I've received enough help from you.

How will you survive alone?

No matter what happens, I'll trust myself.

I wanted to be with you.

After all, you changed my disgrace into something to be proud of.

Being with you would've cheered me up more.

That's not true.

You're more than capable now.

Whenever and wherever you are, feel proud of yourself.

Have a safe trip to Berlin.

Now then, what am I going to do from now on?

I want to draw out my own story.

But I must also earn money...

and learn more.

That's it. I'll apply for an assistant job first.

(Search: Webcomic artist)

Let's do this.

Let's take the bed of roses-like wild path.

(How do I become a webcomic artist assistant?)

(Comments)

(Portfolio)

"Portfolio?"

Oh, jeez.

But I gave everything I drew until now to Do Hong.

Should I ask him for them?

No.

I can start a new proper one.

You scared me!

What are you staring at?

How dare you smile?

Don't bother me.

I will live a good life without you.

Go away.

Go away!

What's with him?

Darn it.

Quit following me around.

Stop behaving pathetically.

Go away!

Take this.

My hands are full today.

Don't follow me around.

Really, stay still.

I'm sorry.

Honey.

Hey!

Where were you looking?

Can't you see my baby got hurt?

Hey, you!

Where were you looking?

Are you all right, baby?

She almost broke my shoulder bones.

Can't you see my baby got hurt?

What are you doing?

I'm taking my side.

Right, baby?

Yes, I am.

Aren't you alone right now?

That's right. I'm not taken.

But I'm an invincible single with this amazing umbrella.

Isn't it cool?

You're crazy, you hear me?

- Bye! - My mom told me...

never to face someone like you!

You're quite useful, Chairman Ko.

High five.

But your owner...

got kicked out after playing hooky every day.

I wonder where he is and what he's doing.

Follow your joy.

(Gums on Sale)

Here.

Follow your joy.

(Extra-large Pain de Campagne, 9 dollars 99 cents)

It's 9 dollars and 99 cents.

I only have six dollars.

(Extra-large Pain de Campagne, 9 dollars 99 cents)

- You little... - Follow your joy!

No way. That's impossible.

He must still be wealthy and well.

Just think about myself.

Forget about that punk.

In any case, he wasn't all that nice to me.

We don't share that many memories.

When we were together,

it wasn't fun at all. Was it?

Moon Cha Min, you're a total scumbag.

Whatever I do, I miss you, and it's your doing.

How am I supposed to forget the happiest moments of my life?

What?

(Chungdam Heaven)

Did some...

loan sharks do this?

How did this happen?

Who dares break into a place that has already gone down?

You darn punk!

Mr. Moon?

What are you doing here?

You hit me out of nowhere, you know?

Why didn't you stop me?

You should've said you weren't a thief.

Since I am a scumbag.

Why? Because you let the company go bankrupt?

Or because you kissed me without permission?

Should I turn the lights off? Do you want to beat me up more?

It hurts.

More than that,

there's something I want to do.

You're no longer the CEO, so I'm dropping the formality. Okay?

I like you.

What?

You like me?

But I have nothing now.

You gave me something bigger.

Thanks to you, I saw myself in a new light.

I finally treasure myself.

That is why I feel grateful to you.

Is that why you like me?

I want to be hugged by you every day.

I want to listen to your heartbeat every day.

My heart melts whenever I'm with you.

You're truly warm.

Other than them, I can't do anything for you.

So what?

I have nothing, either.

If you're fine with how I am,

why don't we,

two poor people, try to live life to the fullest?

Stop talking.

Why?

Weren't these things supposed to be felt?

But why can't you feel me?

You like me a lot, don't you?

Though I have nothing right now,

I must tell you this. Okay?

I can love you forever.

All other women are rocks.

You're my only deity.

Don't laugh. I'm serious.

Can we stay here like this?

What were you here for?

It's okay. I found it?

Found what?

Right.

Hey.

- Listen. - What?

My plan was to become your ideal Prince Charming again...

and propose to you.

Gosh.

But you're more charming than Prince Charming.

Really?

Won't you regret it?

As someone said, I decided to live as a Prince Charming-like warrior.

Goodness. Why are you this lovely?

After all this time?

No. Ever since we first met.

It took such a long time for me to say this.

I love you, Shin Jae Rim.

I love you, too.

You didn't have any proper meals, right?

It'll be my treat. Go ahead and order everything you want.

Then I'll get...

plump shrimp.

And the original is the best, so the supreme.

I'll get Hawaiian and sweet potato.

I'm paying for them.

- Thank you for the food. - Dig in.

The pizza here is delicious.

It's so good.

What's going on?

Guys, come! Hurry up!

That thing went inside! Hurry!

I'm back.

Mom. What's that?

I don't think he's human.

He's too good-looking.

I brought him since he needed a place to crash tonight.

Good evening.

- I'm Jae Rim's boyfriend. - My gosh.

Goodness gracious.

I didn't know my youngest daughter...

was blessed with a great guy.

That's nonsense. He doesn't even have a place to sleep.

She picked up a bum from somewhere.

He used to be the CEO of Chungdam Heaven...

but got kicked out overnight, okay?

Oh, so he went from riches to rags.

Mind your manners, will you?

(From riches to rags)

Well, welcome.

You sure are a very handsome guy.

- What about dinner? - We had some.

He's only going to spend the night here.

"Only going to spend the night here?"

Yes.

Goodness, I feel sleepy.

- I should go to bed now. - Okay.

- Goodnight. - Let's all go to sleep.

- What? - No way.

We should finish this show.

Why don't you read a book for our Pumpkin?

Do we have books at our house?

It hurts.

She's a silly girl.

Here.

(Shin Kwang Soo)

We actually swapped places to sleep.

Will you be able to sleep?

- You think? - Is it uncomfortable?

Of course. You're right next to me.

Is that so? Then I'm going to my room. Goodnight.

I wonder if I should be staying still like this.

If not, what will you do?

Cha Min!

Someone will see us.

- They're probably asleep. - Come here.

Forget it.

Should we go to my place?

But aren't you homeless now?

Because of the Tenant Protection Act, it's still my house.

Then why did you follow me here with a pitiful face?

Because I wanted to follow you around.

I missed you tons, you know?

You should've told me.

Let's go to your place.

No. Scratch that.

How come?

Go home, and it'll get dangerous. I'll break loose.

Can't you just break loose?

What's going to happen? Show me.

Give me time.

I'll become a cooler man, and take you with me like a VIP.

Give you time? No way. I've got lots to do, as well.

Hurry up.

Show me what'll happen if you break loose.

- Come on. Show me. - Enough. Come here.

I came to hold you in my arms all night long today.

Wasn't I warm to you?

What if I hatch?

Go ahead.

And become my baby bird.

"Baby bird?"

Tweet.

Hey, shush. The others will hear you.

- Tweet. - Tweet.

They say it's always the quiet ones.

And it's very true with Jae Rim...

and the guy she brought over.

Wake up, you two.

Where are your manners?

As expected from my daughter.

I love how brazen she is.

What's this? Move it.

Wake up.

Sleep a bit more. We went to bed late last night.

- Gosh, you... - Sleep.

Stop it.

We had a very peaceful night.

Is that so?

Wake up. Hurry.

- Get up. - Why? What is it?

Did you sleep well, tweet?

My gosh.

What is it? Does it stink too much?

Why did you have to make cheonggukjang?

No.

This is my favourite dish.

Rich people find this kind of dish amusing...

and intolerable in dramas.

Even people like Jae Yong eat fried seaweed rolls,

and Yong Jin has rice with instant noodles these days.

Oh, my.

But I made it so you couldn't eat it.

Please dig in.

Eat lots.

It's hot.

I wonder if my son is eating properly.

Leave.

I told you we cut ties, didn't I?

You know I don't take back my words.

I don't need you anymore, Dad.

Then what are you here for?

Remember you said love didn't exist?

But it does.

I love you.

And all of this is out of your love for me, right?

We're an exception.

You're right.

Since we've cut ties,

I will live happily ever after with my girl.

Don't be ridiculous.

Although I was kicked out with nothing but myself,

she accepted me.

Being handsome is truly the best. Thanks, Dad.

I had full faith in my looks, too, you know?

But it's all an illusion. It's nothing but a shell.

Leave. Empty out your house.

I wanted to do something proper before leaving.

That's why I'm here.

What is it?

I've already been kicked out.

I had nothing to lose, so I brought Mom here.

You punk. I told you not to trust that sly woman.

"Trust?" That's so old-fashioned.

Just enjoy the moment as you want.

Don't you want to spend your day happily with the one you like?

You should decide...

on the kind of life you want to live.

Cha Min...

Honey?

Don't say a thing.

Hey...

Love is something you must feel.

I've never seen such a laid back, jobless person in my life before.

Don't nag at me. You never know what'll become of me.

And right now, I'm cultivating my sensibility.

Right. I so want to know what you'll become in the future.

Hold on.

Didn't you get...

criticized a lot for paying to make a wish in the past?

Yes. I did.

So, did that wish come true?

You got yourself a boyfriend.

I'm not sure.

I never wished for Moon Cha Min.

He was a total jerk back then.

Listen, Jae Rim. Despite everything, your CEO is good-looking.

- Right. - He looks like...

he has the most perfect abs.

I felt it a bit.

And he most likely does.

It's just as you had wished!

But being penniless is fatal.

I'll be the breadwinner.

You've got scammed.

From what I see, that rich girl...

made a fool of you to screw you over.

Gosh. What a wicked girl. She knows nothing about a commoner's life.

You're wrong. I believe I received a much better gift...

that suits me much more than what I had wished for.

(Wish Pavilion)

You see,

I want a loyal guy like a Korean Jindo dog.

He should only have eyes on me.

Are you fine with one who's ugly?

Not really.

(Shin Jae Rim)

"Shin Jae Rim?"

Oh, gosh.

Goodness.

I only gave her the paper with her wish and not the talisman.

What now?

It's up to her fate now.

Don't forget yours, okay?

Can you really make my wish come true?

Actually, it's a trade secret.

A secret.

Wishes come true through one's faith, will,

- What? You're weird. - and how the world unrolls.

Nobody knows what kind of a story...

- one will write together. - Are you leaving?

Bye!

Hey, Dad.

Come back, Cha Min. You need to take over my business.

Your dad is old now.

I don't work with someone who takes back their words.

And there are plenty who want to invest in me.

I'm going to open Seongsu Heaven.

I was being childish. Come back.

No way.

I may have played hooky,

but apparently, I'm very competent.

I've got all the skills.

So this time,

I'm going to become Prince Charming without help.

Let me be your Prince Charming.

Chungdam Heaven will be all yours.

Stop being so cold-hearted to your dad, Cha Min.

She's right. I want to follow my joy at ease now.

So, it's time for you to work,

and time for me to love.

Then why don't you offer a contract where I'm the ultimate boss?

Follow your joy.

Do as you please, punk.

Hello?

Hi. I'm Producer Seong Eun from Channel EJ.

Are you Ms. Shin Jae Rim?

Yes. How can I help you?

I thoroughly enjoyed...

Director Baek Do Hong's collection of scripts,

and it so happened to be your story.

Oh, you see...

I let my imagination take over and not stick to the script.

I kept getting sidetracked while drawing,

like Little Red Riding Hood.

But that was what I liked.

It was unique and kitsch.

Coincidentally, I plan to create a short-form animation.

How about we work together?

Is this the so-called lucky draw?

Are you free this Friday?

Of...

I already have plans but I will try to make some time.

- Okay, thank you. - No problem.

Oh, my gosh.

Can things work out like this?

Yes. This universe is surprisingly close-knit...

and endless.

Hi. The weather is amazing, right?

Apparently, this universe has an exquisite fate...

and profound gifts for us.

(Tweet)

(Tweet)

- Hey, Tweet. - I miss you.

I'm on my way.

Dad, I can sort of understand what you meant by...

you can't become successful alone.

Had I not met you,

I wouldn't have encountered...

such a self and this day.

(6 months later)

(Hanyang University Hospital)

It's so strange to give birth...

in front of my kids.

Push just a bit more, Mom.

My stomach hurts too much.

I brought this from home to cheer you up, Mom.

Shin Kwang Soo. How dare you laugh right now?

Really, how dare you?

You're extremely ugly today.

Get lost.

- Get lost! - Put it away.

Mom. Relax.

It'll be the first time Pumpkin comes out to the world.

Push, ma'am.

In 1, 2, 3.

Shin Kwang Soo!

Congratulations.

It's a girl.

Because the world is a tough place,

being born might feel unfair.

Despite all, there are dazzling and tearful moments...

like light and salt...

that make you feel grateful to be born.

So happily hang in there.

My dream of becoming a career woman has finally come true.

However, that's my imagination.

This is what reality looks like.

Hey.

Your shoulders are really stiff.

It feels nice.

But, you see,

my legs hurt more because I've been sitting down all day.

Here.

Even if he is Prince Cha Min,

he becomes a slave before the one he loves.

It feels nice.

Why aren't you like Cinderella?

You have no time to hang out with me.

Why don't you take life easily again?

Follow your joy.

But you're my joy.

Just once.

How shall I entertain you?

Must you ask?

- I'll do as I want. - Okay.

They're doing something else that is far from...

the reason she got her studio.

Shouldn't you work?

Weren't you going to live life to the fullest?

(Chungdam Heaven)

The short-form video is much more popular than expected.

Jae Rim. Isn't this all thanks to me?

I was the middleman.

Be nice to me.

Got it.

To be accurate, it was thanks to me.

I gave her a good massage whenever she had it hard.

And I did, no matter how tired or exhausted I was.

My coffee did wonders, too.

My bread, as well.

Jae Rim. You're really lucky.

Shall we all have a look at this?

Regardless of what the world says,

keep in mind that you are the main character of your life...

and create your own story.

Then, misery simply becomes a page of your story.

Your villain becomes a supporting character.

Everything will be for the sake of your dream.

And eventually,

it'll end happily ever after.
