It's very easy to make stir-fried noodles with seafood...

- Cut! - Cut!

- My gosh. - What's wrong?

Excuse me.

- Move. - Please make way.

That's not what you were supposed to say.

That is what I was supposed to say.

He's right. The script says, "It's very easy to make..."

I told you to ignore the script.

Remember what you said when we first met?

I liked what you said back then. Let's use that.

That's my personal opinion.

And I'm saying that I like your personal opinion.

I want the show to be real.

I'm sure the writer doesn't know anything about what's real.

My gosh, this is driving me crazy.

Okay, let's go. I want you to begin with stir-frying the noodles again.

Let's start over from stir-frying the noodles.

Okay.

I'm this close to just leaving.

I'm sorry. Let's just try shooting it one more time.

Please show us enthusiastic reactions.

- Let's do this. - My gosh.

- Get ready. - Let's do this.

Everybody, standby.

To be honest, I don't really like cooking simple meals.

But today...

Stop shooting.

Cut! Who was that?

Stop shooting. This isn't based on my script.

What's wrong with that lunatic?

- Ms. Lee. - Stop shooting.

You can't do this here. Please don't do this.

Do you even think of me as a writer?

How can you do this to me?

Do you even hear yourself?

It's us who should be asking you that question.

What are you doing right now?

Did you finish writing the next script?

I didn't write it.

What's the point? You don't even follow it.

You drive me crazy.

You're not Shakespeare. Can't we make edits?

Writers shouldn't be bossing people around.

I understand you might want to make edits,

but you should at least tell me where you made them.

If the beginning changes, so should the end. I need to know.

You're irresponsible. You can't just shoot without thinking.

You're the irresponsible one!

Do you think acting like this is responsible?

You left me with no choice!

I'm exaggerating a bit, but I asked you 100 times.

However, nothing changed. You pushed me to the edge.

Gosh. This is why I never work with new writers. I must be crazy!

No, I'm the one going crazy.

I was greedy about making my debut that I ignored rumors about you.

I knew you change people's writings, but I thought you wouldn't with me.

It's thanks to my edits that you get 10 percent in viewership.

We'd get 10 percent even if you left it the way it was.

You're impossible to talk to.

If you hate my work so much, you should stop shooting it.

Are you telling me you'll fire me?

How can I fire you? I really can't talk to you.

Look who's talking.

Okay, watch.

There are over 100 staff and cast. Ask them.

Do any of you think she's right? Even just one person?

See? There's not a single person.

I pity myself.

I can't believe I have to work with an emotional teenager.

Really?

No one?

Of course not. Why are you asking?

Get out of here.

Let us just work.

All right.

I'll take responsibility for my actions today.

It's okay.

You don't have to be responsible for what you did when you were drunk.

Director.

There's one.

Me.

What are you doing?

You're not our staff.

I am today.

I ran into him again.

It had to be at a time when I'm behaving disgracefully.

I never forgot about him for a second.

I desperately...

wanted to see him again even if by chance.

My first love...

that disappeared at the end of my youth...

at the age of 29.

(Temperature of Love)

(5 years ago)

(Episode 1)

What did you just call me?

- That hurts. - Don't pick a fight.

Who do you think you're touching?

Keep it down!

Gosh.

What are you looking at?

That surprised me.

(Being Thirty)

(Writer Park Eun Sung)

No!

No, no.

Detective Kim. Sir.

What do you want?

Can you undo the cuffs?

Already? It hasn't even been half an hour.

The writer called me. I have to know what happened.

All the other assistants left last night. Why are you still here?

You wanted to sleep here and have the cuffs on too.

They are better writers than I am. I have to work twice as hard.

I like that you're humble.

- Hurry. - Let's see.

Hurry, hurry.

Is Hong Ah the main writer?

(Hong Ah)

(What is drama?)

The number you're calling...

(She never picks up her phone.)

What is it?

What took you so long? I called you three times.

You're just impatient.

I was trying to call you back when you called me again.

If you're done, come here.

Where are you?

I told you. I'm in Kind Soup's restaurant in Hongdae.

Kind Soup?

Oh, the one with bad spellings?

(Wi-Fi: Why are you still up? Kind Soup: I had team dinner todai.)

What?

(Kind Soup: I maid food.)

(Emergency Doctor: I packed lunch for the nurses.)

What's wrong with him?

(Jane loves Wi-Fi)

Yes. The one you hate for being stupid.

I never said that I hate him. We've never met.

I just don't like him. What does he do there anyway?

I told you he cooks. How many times do I have to tell you?

I can't remember something I'm not interested in.

Anyway, let's eat here and chat...

until our running club meet together.

The writers want coffee. I have to go back to the office.

Can't your boss buy her own coffee?

The bus is here.

Gosh, you're so modest.

You act as if you won the writing contest already.

I would be acting much worse if I won the contest.

I'd dance in the middle of Yeouido.

Haven't they called you yet? Aren't the results out?

I didn't get a call yet.

Do you know anyone that got the call?

Not that I know of.

Thank goodness.

What if I don't make it again? I'm so worried.

It's not like you to get so depressed.

Just come out later.

I'll have to see.

I'll call you if I can't make it.

You'll die from exhaustion if you keep that up.

Why would an assistant work so hard?

You have to work hard if you want to become anything.

See you later then.

What do you know about being a writer?

I'm sure it's not any different.

If you're here, just eat and go. Why did you want to see me?

Because I have to talk to you.

I wouldn't have come if you had a cellphone.

Why don't you have a phone? It's the 21st century.

Come to Gyeongbok Palace later.

Can't you see I'm working? We're busy during the weekends.

Just come after you're done.

You've never met Hyun Soo. Right, you wouldn't know her name.

Her user name is Jane. You've chatted with her before.

I don't remember.

I'll introduce you to her. She's a fun person to hang out.

There is only one reason why I joined the running club.

What's that?

To run. I don't want to socialize.

I made this garnish. Enjoy it and leave.

Hey, hey.

That's too thick.

How many times do I have to tell you to cut them thin?

Sir, could I go to the washroom?

Just do it in your pants.

- Go, I'll do it. - Thank you.

Why did you go into the hall?

Did you want to show off your garnish to a girl?

You think you got it good since you skipped...

being an assistant after you studied in France, right?

Why are you ignoring me?

Was that a question? I thought you were talking to yourself.

You little...

You must think you're a big shot after becoming a section chef.

Don't you know I'm your superior?

Could you look after the steak? I have to prepare the garnish.

Hey. Do you take me for a joke?

I respect you, chef,

but let's talk after the lunch servings are done.

I'm sorry if I did anything to offend you.

Hey, are you all right?

I'm okay.

Hey.

I told you to call it when you're behind someone.

Didn't I tell you how exposed we are to injuries?

I'll make a quick trip to the hospital.

Shall I call your mother for you, so that she doesn't worry about you?

You must not know her very well. She's very strong.

She'd throw away her kid to a dog.

We have an announcement.

I'll get right to the point.

(On Jung Sun)

Find him as soon as possible.

I'll pay as much as you want.

All right.

Let's see how long you can hide.

Goodness.

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

Are you sure?

I'm really sorry.

Could you help me?

Of course.

Anything for a beautiful woman like you.

Please follow me.

You are very beautiful.

What did you do while I was sleeping?

These are all useless.

I'll edit them.

My gosh, this is driving me crazy.

Don't you have any brilliant ideas?

What do you think about pressing charges?

That's already too common.

I'm sorry.

I want each of you to think about five ways in how...

the main character can take revenge on the culprit.

Should we just kill the culprit?

- Kill the culprit? - Here's your latte.

Yes, kill the culprit using the cruelest method you can think of.

Okay.

Summarize what we just discussed, and email it to all the others.

- Okay. - Hey.

How did it feel to sleep in a holding cell?

Did it help you understand the culprit?

Not really.

I think having presumed that I'd be able to understand...

the culprit when I'm not even guilty of anything...

was already wrong to begin with.

I told you it'd be a waste of time.

It's not a waste of time.

The content differs based on whether or not you've experienced it.

- Yes, you're right. - Look at Hyun Soo.

I don't need to tell her what to do. She does stuff on her own.

I like your spirit.

Thank you.

I'll summarize what I've covered at the police station.

Okay.

I'm going to go home and come back tomorrow.

- Give me my coffee. - Here you go.

My mother-in-law says she wants to come visit.

Don't get married. It's horrible.

We'll also work at home and come back tomorrow.

It will air in just a few days, and the director's still shooting.

You girls need to be here.

Hyun Soo, you can go home today.

She worked hard on the cover.

- See you. - Bye.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Work hard. - Okay.

Okay.

I can't believe we have to sleep here again...

when she's going home.

When is she going to finish writing everything?

She's probably going to use the summary as reference.

She can't write anything without us.

Then she's going to take the credit for everything.

If that upsets you, you should succeed.

We need to put up with her until we make our debut as writers.

Please send me the summary of today's meeting via email.

What's wrong? Does it bother you to hear us talk behind her back?

No, that's not it.

You always stay quiet whenever we talk behind her back.

You make us look bad.

It's because she's used to being so polite.

If politeness was a criterion in becoming a writer, you'd make it.

Hyun Soo's worked in a large company before.

She's different from us.

We can't really force ourselves to do things we don't want to do.

That goes the same for me.

Please be consistent in how you choose to treat me.

It's uncomfortable to be criticized and understood at the same time.

Hyun Soo, why are you taking it so seriously?

We were just joking around to relieve our stress.

My goodness, you should go home.

She gave you permission to go home.

My gosh, I can't believe her.

How can she talk back to every word I say?

Is she still here? Hasn't she left yet?

Would you like anything else?

You don't need to care about me. I'm waiting for a friend to come.

Jung Woo!

I'm going to leave in 10 minutes.

I'll see you when you leave then.

Jung Woo, I'm sorry. I'll get on my knees if you want me to.

Don't overreact, and sit down.

Have you eaten?

An idol star is appearing in our drama series.

So we get a lot of food from his fans.

By the way, why do you suddenly want to start a production company?

It's time for me to spend the money I've earned.

I'm going to use my money well.

You're so good at sniffing money.

Why have you still not given me the list of directors?

I don't think you're well aware of this business yet.

A production company makes money by hiring a lot of writers.

Your road to success depends on how many...

competent writers you have.

Do you have any writers you'd like to recommend?

I'm just a production assistant. How would I know a star writer?

But I do know one...

who comes running to me anytime I call her.

What did she write?

She graduated from our school, which kind of makes her your junior too.

She quit working at a nice company.

She now works as an assistant writer and gets paid 800 dollars a month.

Forget it. I hate those kind of people.

Those who are reckless and unrealistic.

I like realistic dramas.

She's really smart.

You should meet her.

No.

(Dried Sweet Potatoes)

(Bugger)

When are you coming? Is it okay to sleep outside like this?

You'll ruin yourself before you actually become a writer.

Get me some sanitary pads on your way home.

Buy some instant noodles and spring onions as well.

There's nothing at home.

You can talk all you want. I'm going to go my way.

This is so yummy.

Sweet potato chips are the best.

(Meet me at 3pm tomorrow.)

Meet me at 3pm tomorrow. I'll give you some work.

Why isn't she replying?

I'm not going to meet her.

She just replied.

Unbelievable.

(Lee Hyun Soo)

(Lee Hyun Soo)

Set a date, so I can meet her. I suddenly want to meet her now.

You haven't even eaten yet. Why are you making meringue?

Don't you think it's time to change the soup?

Are you going to make consomme?

Yes, chef.

You should try developing a single dish.

I'll add that as a special menu.

Thank you, chef.

You can call me by my name when we're alone.

Okay, chef.

It's hard to get along with the others, isn't it?

It's because you got your job through me.

It's okay. I shouldn't be cooking if I'm going to complain about that.

- You should rest today. - No.

You need to at least seem a little approachable.

You should become friends with everyone else.

Teamwork is also part of your competence, you know.

I don't want to purposely seem approachable just to make friends.

My goodness.

My gosh, I can't believe this.

I'll come see you again.

I totally agree.

- Me too. - Yes.

- It's so funny. - He kept asking...

because he was curious.

- I see. - So I told him.

My gosh.

Haven't you experienced the same thing?

Why are you talking as if...

- you know everything? - Calm down.

We can do it.

- We can do it. - Let's go!

What was that for?

I was checking if you drank after lying to me about...

having to spend the night out for your cover.

What's wrong with you? Would I ever lie to you about that?

No.

But you never know. People always change.

Why did you buy this one?

You use that one.

I needed the ones without wings.

Go back, and exchange these.

Me?

Then who else?

You can go yourself.

Why didn't you pay for last month's living expenses?

To be exact, I couldn't pay.

That's why I shopped for groceries.

You can't end the deal with this.

We're sisters. That's something you can always do for me.

Can't you use that generosity on living expenses as well?

No. Food and money are different.

How are they different?

I do all sorts of chores for you.

If you convert my labor into money, I don't owe you anything.

It's been five months since you haven't paid for living expenses.

I'll go exchange them for you.

This is why you shouldn't have quit your job,

especially when it's a huge company that everyone wants to work at.

There she goes again. She's making it obvious that she's a teacher.

I can't stand her trying to lecture me.

I can't even talk about you anywhere because I'm so embarrassed.

You're so pathetic. Until when are you going to depend on me?

You need to wake up.

How much is your monthly pay?

Why are you looking at me like that? And what's that smile on your face?

Did you imagine spraying this ketchup on me?

How will you write dramas when you can't even lie properly?

It's not too late.

Just prepare for the government official exams.

I wonder what Mom and Dad will think of you now.

They've been only saying good things about you.

Always nagging me to be like you.

When are you going to get out of that idea?

When are you going to stop your stupid psychoanalysis?

I'll just stop talking. What did I expect?

Hey!

I shouldn't be too upset.

She just got dumped. She's in a state of panic.

She can be obsessed with food.

I don't need your sympathy.

I'm not obsessed with food just because I got dumped by him.

I lost.

Drink that.

How could you make me wait?

You should've gotten there first and waited for me.

You know who I am.

I ran to here as soon as I finished my work in Ganghwa.

It's a bit spicy. What is this?

I blended coriander powder with basil.

My brother got coriander powder from India for me.

I like this kind of taste. You were being considerate, weren't you?

I forgive you for making me wait.

Thank you.

Should we pick up Hyun Soo on our way?

Just be loyal to me.

I went to Jung Sun's restaurant earlier.

How come he doesn't have a cellphone in the 21st century?

He has his own way of living.

So is he coming?

He is. He does everything I say.

He doesn't.

He just does what he feels like doing.

I'm the only loyal one here.

Why are you emphasizing that?

I'm just saying I'm happy about it.

What is that?

Is that a letter? Or is it a writing?

What's that dressing on his hand?

He has a knife scar on his arm.

Is he in a gang?

Do I know you?

No, you don't. Why?

You've been staring at me for a while.

I'm sorry.

Why is she not here yet?

- Hyun Soo! - Hey!

You are early! You too!

- I haven't seen you for a while. - I know.

- Hi, Jung Sun! - Hey.

Do you guys know each other?

You know him too.

We've met online already.

He's Kind Soup.

You are Jane.

What is this? That's fancy. Look at mine.

I'll keep your phone for you.

It's okay. I don't want to cause any inconvenience.

What do you mean? It's nothing

You are too independent.

Well, if you insist...

Everyone! Come over here!

As you know, today's running routes are...

Gyeongbok Palace, Samcheong-dong, Bukchon, Insa-dong, and...

Chenggyecheon, Gwanghwamun, and back to Gyeongbok Palace again.

After a warm-up, we'll break into small groups.

You can group yourselves by your pace.

That means I can't run with you guys.

You can be kkakdugi, the weakest one in the group.

I like Kkakdugi. I want to eat it now.

Do you want me to make you some?

Radish from Ganghwa is amazing!

- What do you think of that? - I love it.

Look how happy you guys are.

My knees are hurting already.

Oh, my goodness.

Hyun Soo! Run faster!

If you take a break, you'll feel worse.

You have to keep running.

Does he think I don't know that?

If you know it, then do it. You should be running.

If your legs feel too heavy, try to move your arms at least.

- Like this. - Like this?

That's right. Now you have to go forward.

I'm sorry, but I can't. You go first. I'll take care of myself.

Are you going to give up?

- Can't I? - No, you can't.

I'm a pacemaker. I never let anyone give up.

That's a problem.

Your problem's based on your obsession for achievement.

You shouldn't feel guilty about giving up. It's not good for you.

You are really good at talking. I love that.

Let's talk about it while running.

Hyun Soo. Let's drink beer after this!

That motivates me.

I can do this!

By the way,

don't run behind me.

If I run, that's because I want to run.

I see.

Goodness.

How...

What?

I didn't know I could still find somewhere like this.

This is amazing.

Where's Hyun Soo?

I think she's left behind again. I'll go look for her.

I think I know where she is.

(Episode 2 will air shortly.)

(Episode 2)

Where am I?

I don't have my cellphone.

How creepy.

How will a person get away with murder at a place like this?

This is the blind spot.

After...

the main character lures the culprit to this spot...

My gosh, it's not here either.

- Where's the sea snail restaurant? - My gosh, I'm sorry.

I heard it's nearby.

I'm on my way home.

- Could I... - I'm almost home.

We're in front of Gyeongbok Palace,

but she's not here. She didn't go home either.

What do we do? She's so bad with directions.

She doesn't even know places she's been to before.

You're quite amazing.

How did you make your way out?

Are you trying to survive?

I'll live just like you.

How pretty.

Are you even scared?

You scared me!

It's nothing compared to how much you scared me.

Why are you mad at me?

Because I am.

What are you talking about? I didn't mean it that way.

Then what do you mean?

I said "jagi" as a pronoun. You.

I didn't say "jagi" as its other meaning, "honey".

Same with me. I meant the pronoun.

What's wrong with you?

Why are you angry with me? Why are you making fun of me?

I was so happy to see you that I almost ran into your arms.

Do you know how scared I was?

I walked and walked, but I was walking in circles.

Do you know how many times I've been here already?

We were searching for you for three hours.

Won Joon and Hong Ah are waiting for you too.

Give me your phone.

I don't have one.

Why not?

There are people without phones these days?

I can't afford it.

Your shoes are probably more expensive than cellphones.

That watch looks like it's a brand too.

We must disagree on how we use money.

Let's not talk about it.

I tend to respect other people's values.

Really? Then why did you say that?

- I don't know. - You don't know.

You have a strange habit.

It's not nice to pick on people's words.

Let's not criticize one's values either.

Well, I normally respect other people's values.

Then why did you say that?

Let's go. Follow me.

Right, do this too. We have to stretch before running.

Can't we just walk?

- No, we can't. - Gosh.

It's raining.

Speed up. That way you'll dodge the rain.

I saw it on "Curious World"...

that you get just as wet whether you run or walk.

It'd be foolish to run in order to dodge the rain.

I'm a huge fan of "Curious World". This has got to be the truth.

Please fall for it.

Let's walk. I'm tired.

Are you dumb?

If you get to your destination fast, you won't be as wet.

Don't you take speed and time into consideration?

Maybe "Curious World" didn't teach you those things.

You're smart. You didn't fall for it.

It feels like an insult to hear it from someone dumb.

How old are you? You look younger than me.

Why are you bringing up age all of a sudden?

Do you...

want me to hold your hand?

No.

I don't want to run while holding a stranger's hand either.

Fine, let's run.

One, Two, One, Two.

Five.

Gosh, it's pouring.

There.

It's a great night to murder.

There are no CCTV cameras here.

Who are you trying to kill?

It's my homework from my boss.

I'm an assistant writer.

Do you want to go out with me?

Are you crazy?

I'm not crazy.

I'm crazy if I ask you out?

Yes, you are. You can't be sane.

You hardly know me, and you're asking me out?

What do I have to know?

Your age? Alma mater?

I'm 23. I've already served in the army.

Stop, stop.

You're young, so you might think outer appearance is everything...

when it comes to dating.

It's true that you're pretty,

but I wouldn't ask every pretty woman out.

I can understand you're taken by surprise...

by this sudden proposal.

However, I'm not taking this lightly.

What time is it now?

It's 12:37am.

We were at Gyeongbok Palace at around 7:40pm,

and that's when we first met.

If it's 12:37am now...

It hasn't even been five hours.

Out of those 5 hours, we properly talked for 30 minutes.

And you're saying you're serious?

It only took me a minute to choose cooking as my vocation.

Falling in love at first sight is a physical love. It's dangerous.

That's why it's hard.

And since it's hard, I'm not taking this lightly.

I can't agree with you about the physical part,

since I don't know much about it.

You're really good at talking. And I thought I was pretty good.

I would have fallen for it if I was a bit younger.

Then fall for it.

Why do you want to date me?

You just said you won't date just any pretty woman.

My heart is falling for you.

Why are you talking so casually?

You started it.

I started first, didn't I?

I didn't notice.

Does it make you mad that I asked you out?

I feel like I was looked down on.

A younger guy asked me out.

Do I look so easy to everyone?

Am I dropping to that low level?

Is it that great to be old?

I never said that.

You can't control getting aged.

I didn't ask you to help me. Gosh.

Do you really not feel anything?

How can you ask out a woman when you don't even know her name?

- Jung Sun, you found her. - Are you okay, Hyun Soo?

Yes.

My name is On Jung Sun.

What is your name?

I'm going to refuse...

the offer you made today.

You're all wet. My gosh.

Be confident.

No one in this world deserves to criticize you.

I'm so excited to be back in Korea. It's been so long since I last came.

Don't you have a family here?

I have a son.

He's the only person who's always on my side.

Hey. The halibut is really fresh today.

What do you think?

I like them. I'll take five.

You always take just enough for one serving.

I'm going to use them for today's lunch menu.

Okay. Just a second.

Your idea got picked.

Thank you.

I really like the scene where he gets murdered with climbing irons.

I think it'll be a great scene.

This is only a draft,

so we're going to give it to the director after we edit it.

I don't think it'll require much editing. It's fun already.

It's really relieving.

It's better because she succeeds in taking a cruel revenge.

- It's very cathartic. - Yes.

But she's the main character.

So?

I think it's a bit too brutal.

The scene itself is fun, but I think it harms the character.

The logic of "Become a monster to defeat a monster"...

is popularly used in many movies and dramas these days.

It just feels like we're only following the trend.

- You're really good at... - This is why...

you can't make it.

We're not following the trend.

We're just depicting human nature.

And our drama's storyline is focused on that.

But up until now, your writing was...

based on a premise that human nature is fundamentally good.

That means the main topic has changed.

Why is the topic important?

What's important is the main character.

Must I teach an amateur like you every single thing...

in the process of trying to finish my work?

I'm sorry.

Is there anything new?

We have a special menu today. Would you like to try it?

Let me try it.

It needs a bit more seasoning.

I made it a bit bland on purpose to bring out the taste of halibut.

It's for a VVIP customer. He almost always eats by himself.

He doesn't want to get disturbed while eating.

How strange. Food tastes better when you eat it with someone.

Don't experiment with this dish. Just follow the norm.

Please respect my way of cooking.

I respect you, but I'm saying this because it's business.

To me, it's not business.

You don't need to pay today.

Why not?

You didn't even finish your meal.

You must've not enjoyed it. Actually, I didn't cook it.

I know it was cooked by a new chef.

You knew?

It tasted really nice.

He did a good job in bringing out the taste of halibut.

I enjoyed it.

Then why did you...

Because it hurt my pride.

I didn't like the fact that I was starting to eat like a pig.

I'll tell him that.

No, I'll tell him myself.

I should be the one to compliment him on his cooking.

Gosh, you're eating really well for someone who just got scolded.

Getting scolded and eating are two very different things.

You seem more approachable when you eat.

I'm always approachable. You just don't like me that much.

You don't look like a writer. You're pretty.

- Hello? - Hey.

Back in the day, people used to beat you up if you were pretty.

At least we don't beat you up.

What? Really?

My gosh, thank you. I'll be waiting for your call.

What's going on?

Hey, I got nominated.

My gosh, I can't believe this.

- Congratulations! - I can't believe this.

What's going on? Did something happen?

Gi Da got nominated.

My goodness.

Congratulations. I'm so happy for you.

Thank you. This is all thanks to you.

No, it was all you. I knew you'd get nominated this time.

Hyun Soo, didn't you get a call yet?

No.

Who's getting a call? What if someone got nominated again?

- Hyun Soo, it's your phone. - Hyun Soo.

- Hurry up, and pick up. - Okay.

Why aren't you answering?

It's my younger sister.

Her hobby is to ruin my life.

Congratulations.

I'm so happy for you.

I told you not to call me out like this.

I have a favor to ask you.

I asked Hyun Soo to come here.

So?

The results for SBC's Drama Writing Contest came out today.

But she didn't get nominated, so I want to cheer her up.

And?

Please make something spicy.

I couldn't see anything spicy on your menu. She likes spicy food.

I think you're misunderstanding something.

I'm an employee who works here.

I don't have the right to do what I want in the kitchen.

You can't just come in here like this. Who told you the passcode?

Sung Eun did.

Hey, I noticed Gi Da's work got nominated.

- Did you know? - Move your feet.

They all went to eat. I'm also going to go as soon as I'm done with this.

Hey, you made it to the semi-finals.

Show me your script. I'll tell you what you did wrong.

Then you'll be able to do better on the next contest.

Just focus on taking care of your own career.

My gosh, you're so aggressive.

You must be really upset about not getting nominated.

Don't worry.

Let me see. Abracadabra.

I see someone special in your near future.

What are you talking about?

- Thank you. - You're so polite.

I learned that I need to be polite to succeed in life.

You're going to make a debut as a director soon.

You should also practice being polite.

You should just worry about your own debut as a writer.

You'll be able to make a living as soon as you make a debut.

You can just write absentmindedly after your first piece of work.

You're giving me such a great lesson.

It's a fact. Writers these days earn money so easily.

They'll write any kind of lowly drama for money.

Writers aren't the only ones who make dramas.

Writers and directors work together to make whatever drama they make.

Does a drama need to have a certain genre for it to be classy?

Does it need to deal with social corruption for it to be elegant?

I don't think you deserve to say that.

You can't write melodramas.

That's why I'm having trouble debuting.

I've failed to read the trend that's been coming down for decades.

I've never been so disregarded in my life.

I'm sorry, Jung Woo. We tend to be like this whenever we meet.

You make it sound as if we're really close.

You must like to be precise.

Yes.

Then you must like accuracy too.

Yes.

You should work with us. No.

You should work with me.

Why?

What do you mean? You should accept it right away.

You're just an assistant writer. You shouldn't be like this.

Just because I'm an assistant writer,

it doesn't mean I should accept any offer that comes my way.

I have a previous engagement.

It was nice meeting you.

I'm sorry. I don't feel comfortable enough to shake your hand.

Hey, wait.

Jung Woo, I'm sorry.

She'll become a writer.

She's rude enough to be one.

Hyun Soo, you're here.

It's nice here.

This is the most popular place in Hongdae.

What would you like?

(Main Dishes, Cod with cheese sauce, 29 dollars,)

(lobster, 48 dollars, beef steak 55 dollars)

It's too expensive.

They're French dishes.

You're a writer. You should try food like this.

You ate something, right?

I ate salad.

Then let's leave now. I'll treat you when I win the contest.

Hyun Soo, my parents are rich. Have you forgotten that?

How could I ever forget that?

Anyway, I want to eat here when I can afford to treat you.

Where are we going? I'll tell Jung Sun to join us.

Get your bag.

Years go by

Come out now.

Or I'll go home.

Okay.

It feels so good now that I ate spicy food.

My head feels clear.

Why isn't Jung Sun coming?

Let's go now. Some guy has been waiting for you.

I'm sorry, Hyun Soo.

My plan was to drink with you all night long.

Cheers.

How much is it?

- No way. I'll pay. - It's 30 dollars.

Here you go. Keep the change.

- Are you going home? - You're here.

Hyun Soo, where are you going?

You should go this way.

Isn't it that way?

No, it's this way.

She's terrible with directions.

Guys, I'll get going now.

- Hyun Soo, see you later. - Okay.

Jung Sun, see you later.

- See you. - Bye.

Goodbye.

Where do you live?

Why do you ask?

Don't be afraid. I won't ask you to be my girlfriend again.

Who's afraid?

How do you go home from here?

Let me see. I'm at Yeouido,

and I live in Yeonnam-dong.

I need to take a bus over there.

You have to take a bus over here to go to Yeonnam-dong.

You're wrong. That direction is right.

I may be bad with directions, but I've been coming here for years.

Do you think I don't even know how to go home from here?

(Yeonnam-dong, Yeouido Station)

I also live in Yeonnam-dong.

I'm sorry.

I always have to see something through in my way.

That's the same for me.

My name is Lee Hyun Soo.

It sounds like a boy's name, right?

I'm On Jung Sun.

It sounds like a girl's name, right?

You told me your name before.

I know.

But this is a new start.

I guess you can get over someone quite easily.

If I don't, I can't move on.

When I quit my job,

I thought I would become a writer quickly.

I underestimated life.

I had never failed any tests.

I love Yeouido.

I said that I will dance in Yeouido Park...

when I win the screenwriting contest.

However, I don't think I'll have a chance to do that.

I feel like I'm a garden tiger moth...

that flies into fire knowing it could die.

Despite that feeling,

even if I die,

I still want to go into the fire.

What are you doing?

What do you think I'll do?

Since you haven't called me, I thought you couldn't find him.

You found his bank details. You made a progress.

Please speed things up.

I miss my son.

Why did you take me here?

Practice the dance you'll do when you win the contest.

You must be out of your mind.

(We thank Jang Hyun Sung for his guest appearance.)

("You Are" by Seung Hee of Oh My Girl)

(Temperature of Love)

Let's eat together.

Are we going all the way to Beolgyo to eat cockles?

How can you take a day off while the drama is in season?

For the past 10 years, I've never seen anyone so evil like you.

Hey, give Hyun Soo her stuff.

I meant to accept it, but this is too much.

I feel like it's not enough.

- Give me money. - Get out of my house.

What kind of wench is she? Who made you like this?

I'd like to kiss you.
