(Hot Love Issue)

You've been playing the good girl for far too long.

You need to find a way to launch a counterattack.

Be passive-aggressive. Don't be too forward.

This is my boyfriend.

I let her borrow him for the livestream.

Not for any PDA.

Have some shame for once!

They're only together at the shop and in the clips.

Once the shop is closed, they're back to being friends.

- Yiwha! - Yes?

I don't trust anyone but you.

You have to help me steal Ran from Grace.

Hello, what's up?

Ran, help me! A thief broke into my house.

What? A thief broke into your house?

Yes, can you come over immediately?

I'm scared.

I don't know what to do.

Sure, I'll be right there.

Wait, Ran. What happened?

Yiwha said a thief broke into her house.

She needs my help.

Hold on. How exactly are you going to help her?

Can you even fight the thief?

What if he's got a gun?

You're right. We should call the police.

That's not our job.

Yiwha should call the police herself.

They need to know what happened.

Has she called the police?

I don't know.

I forgot to ask.

Let me ask her now.

Hello.

Have you called the police?

No, I don't want to call them.

They might take too long.

It's better that you come.

I won't be helpful.

You have to call the police.

They will arrive before I do, and they know how to handle the thief.

Are you chasing me away

because you don't want to come?

No, I will be there,

but you need to call the police first.

Fine, I'll call the police right away.

Get here soon.

Don't bring Grace with you.

What did she say?

She's going to call the police.

She wants me to go there

without you.

Stay here.

It's too dangerous over there.

I'll keep you updated, okay?

Sure, you should hurry.

Yiwha.

Ran, thanks so much for coming.

I'm terrified.

What are you doing outside?

Where are the police?

They have already left.

What? How come?

Were they able to arrest the thief?

No.

He had already run away.

The police left since there was no suspect.

What? They can't do that.

Did anything go missing?

No, he didn't take anything.

But I'm just so scared.

He might come back later tonight now that he's seen the house.

Ran, can you spend the night here?

Keep me company. I'm scared.

- I... - Please, Ran.

Listen, I...

Ran, do you expect me to ask the police to guard my house all night?

They are too busy to do that.

Since you are already here,

stay with me tonight.

I'm scared.

Hello, Ran. How's the situation?

Everything's all right.

The thief had already run away by the time the police arrived.

Nothing in the house is missing.

What a relief.

You should come home now that everything's under control.

Listen, Grace.

Is it all right if I keep Yiwha company tonight?

She's afraid the thief might come back.

Hello, Grace?

Are you there?

Is that really necessary?

Well.

She's scared.

And it's dangerous to leave her alone.

It's only for a few hours.

Grace.

Can I stay with her?

Please.

Do whatever you want.

Ran.

I'm sleepy.

Let's sleep.

You take the bed.

I will

sleep on the sofa.

Ran, don't do that. The bed is big enough for both of us.

We can share the bed.

What's wrong? Are you shy?

This isn't our first time.

I'm not shy.

I want to respect Grace.

Why bother?

She's not here, is she?

Do I need to lose my temper first

for you to listen to me?

Ran.

Thank you for staying with me tonight.

I'm so scared.

What do we do if the thief returns?

I wouldn't know what to do without you.

Thank you.

Hello, what's up, Grace?

Ran.

If it's too dangerous over there, she can sleep at our place.

What did you say?

Are you saying Yiwha should spend the night with us?

Hello, Grace.

Hey.

Take a seat.

How did everything go?

Everything's all right. He didn't take anything.

Thanks so much for offering your place for me to stay.

You still showed me kindness

despite our frequent disagreements.

It's nice to know that you don't hate me.

Oh, I do.

I only offered to help

because I don't want you alone with Ran.

I don't trust you.

Grace.

Be nice.

It's fine, Ran.

I understand.

I'll return home as soon as

the police catch the thief.

Don't misunderstand. You are staying here for one night.

That's it.

Are you seriously sending me home

while the thief is still on the loose?

What if the thief comes back to rob me?

I'm scared.

That's your problem, not mine.

I honestly don't give a hoot.

Take care of it yourself.

Stop.

It's too late

to be arguing

right now.

Let's go to bed.

Come on.

Listen, you sleep on the sofa tonight.

You are allowed in the living room.

The bedroom

is a private space for me and Ran.

Outsiders are not allowed.

Grace.

Are you okay?

This is better than you spending the night at Yiwha's place.

Please hang in there.

The police work fast nowadays.

They will catch the thief soon.

Is she going

to grow old with us if the police fail to catch the thief?

Don't be silly.

Don't worry.

Okay?

Hello, Toi.

Guess where I am right now.

Are you home with Ran?

No.

As we speak,

I am chilling at Grace's place.

She invited me over herself.

That was indeed unexpected.

Really? Great job.

How did you get her to invite you over?

I was just following our plan.

At first, Ran was going to stay at my place.

But Grace got so jealous

that she asked me to come over instead.

Here's the thing.

We have a small problem.

Grace said

I could stay just for tonight.

She's kicking me out tomorrow.

No, you have to stay for longer than that.

Listen, stand your ground.

I pay for half of the mortgage, so I have a say in it.

Really?

Yes.

Ran asks me for money every month to help Grace cover the mortgage.

So technically, I own half the place.

I allow you to stay.

Thank you!

Knowing this will help me sleep better tonight.

Toi, thank you so much. I love you.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Gross.

Hey.

Grace.

I don't need a blanket.

I'm not cold.

I happen to get hot easily.

No, I wasn't worried about your well-being.

I just didn't want Ran to see such a disgusting image.

I hope you didn't dress like that to seduce him.

What are you talking about?

He doesn't get turned on by me anymore.

Grace, what are you guys talking about?

Ran.

Can I ask you something?

Do you still get turned on

when I dress this way?

I...

Let's take a shower.

You promised to rub my back.

Rub it well.

I love it when you rub my back.

It feels amazing. I love it.

Where else should you rub?

Come on, let's go.

Ran, I love how it feels.

It tickles.

Yes, right there.

I love it.

Listen, we are heading to work.

Pack your stuff. We'll drop you off at home.

I just talked to the police.

They haven't caught the thief.

Can I stay here for a while longer?

No.

Go help the police find the thief then.

Don't just sit around in someone else's home.

Ran.

Ran.

Talk to her for me, please.

He can't help you.

This is my place.

I’m the one who makes the decisions here.

Let me correct you.

As far as I know,

Ran pays for half the mortgage.

Isn't that right, Ran?

Grace.

I think

we should let her stay.

She's in trouble.

It would be too cruel to send her home.

- Grace. - Ran.

Wait.

Ran.

I'm sorry for causing a fight between you two.

I hope you guys work things out.

Thanks.

Wait, Ran.

What now?

Thanks for letting me stay.

I actually talked to your mother.

She told me to stay for as long as I want.

After all, she's the one paying for your half of the mortgage.

I get it.

New grads don't get paid enough.

You have to pay the mortgage and treat your girlfriend to meals.

Am I right?

Listen.

You can stay here.

I'll talk to Grace.

However,

do not tell Grace

that my mother still supports me.

Deal?

Deal.

Have fun at work. Bye.

Grace, wait for me.

Grace.

Wait for me.

Oh, you are going to work today?

I thought you were going to stay home to comfort your "sister."

I'm sorry.

I knew you were going to be upset.

But you did it anyway.

I really can't send her home to be alone.

I would feel really guilty

if the thief returned to harm her.

Oh, right. I forgot what a saint you were.

It was one of the reasons I chose you.

I just didn't think it would turn into your weakness.

No way!

And he's letting her stay?

I don't understand why he has to be such a saint.

He's being too nice with a devil like her.

I'm worried

that she will make our place

her new home.

She knows someone's on her side.

Judging how shameless she is, she won't leave easily.

You should start a psychological warfare with her.

You should come up with a plan

since she won't leave easily even if you kick her out.

Bye, I hope everything works out

and she leaves your place soon.

- Thank you. - Of course, bye.

What should we eat for dinner?

Let's find something at the mall.

After that, we can catch a late-night movie.

Sounds like a plan.

Darn it.

Where is he?

Gosh.

Look at the time. He won't pick up.

(Toi)

Why is she calling me now?

Hello, Toi. How are you?

How's everything going? Any update?

Sadly, no update for you.

I've been staying at her place all day.

I'm bored to death.

They are not home yet.

What? They haven't come home yet?

They get off work at 6 p.m. though.

Exactly.

Listen.

I've been trying to contact Ran, but I can't reach him.

I don't know if this is Grace's plan

to leave me home all alone.

That's possible.

Don't give up. It's only your first day.

They won't always be out.

Focus on impressing Ran.

Just ignore Grace.

They are not married yet. You still have a chance.

Thank you so much, Toi.

I will do my best.

Ran.

Don't talk to Yiwha when we go inside.

Sure. But do you really think that's a good idea?

Of course. Do you want her to stay forever?

But you have to help me, okay?

I'm not good at stuff like this.

Sure. Just follow my lead.

I have to go. They're home.

Ran, where were you? I've been waiting...

We're a couple.

It's only natural we go out together.

And who are you?

Why were you waiting for us? I'm confused.

I'm the one who should be confused.

What's wrong with you?

I asked him a question, not you.

Besides, Ran is like a younger brother to me.

He came home late, so I asked where he was.

You know the answer. He was out with his girlfriend.

Ran, are you tired?

You've been complaining about being tired for the whole day.

You should take a shower.

Okay. I'll do that then.

Mm.

Hold on, Ran. Talk to me first.

You can talk to me instead.

I can tell you whatever you want to know.

Because I'm his girlfriend.

You're doing this to spite me, aren't you?

Spite you? Is that so?

You've been stopping me from getting close to him.

Oh, does that mean you've been staying at my place,

not because you want to get away from the thief

but because you want to be close to him?

I really ran away from the thief.

And I should get to talk to my brother too.

We know each other, and we're staying at the same place.

It's normal to talk to each other. Why are you doing this?

You probably already know

why you came here.

I'm just stopping you from getting what you want.

Ran, don't get into the shower yet. Wait for me first.

I'll join you.

Ran, wait for me.

Ran, wait up.

You...

Her imitation of me is also way off.

Don't say anything tonight.

And don't look at her either.

We'll walk straight to our bedroom, close the door, and lock it.

Isn't that a bit rude?

And is what she's doing polite?

Why do we have to mind our manners when the other person doesn't?

Let's go.

Ta-da! Welcome back home, Ran!

Whoo-hoo!

Ran, welcome home.

Shoot.

What have you done to my place?

Grace,

take it easy.

I just redecorated the place to make it a bit more colorful.

I didn't have anything to do when I was here alone.

I thought the place looked a little too plain and simple.

So I spiced it up a bit with some colors.

Isn't it pretty?

Who told you to do this?

No one.

I just wanted to do it.

I put my heart into it and did it all by myself.

And no need to thank me. I didn't do it for you.

It's for him.

Ran,

what do you think?

Isn't it beautiful? You like it, don't you?

I think you actually love it.

Do you like it?

Get everything out of here!

I don't care what you like.

Do this at your own place.

Grace, you can't say that.

Half of this place is actually Ran's.

If he likes it, then I don't have to get rid of it.

Ran,

do you remember when we played house together as kids?

And we used wrapping paper for wallpaper.

Do you remember?

And do you still like it?

Do you?

Do you?

Yes.

You're the best.

Grace.

Grace.

Ran!

Ran, my dearest!

Ran, come out and play.

It's uncomfortable in there.

Come out and play with me!

Ran!

I like that you're here

I like that I am here

I like everything we do

I like you the most

Boo!

Grace?

Grace!

Yes?

It's been a week, hasn't it?

Tell me. Has his ex left?

She's still there.

And no matter how hard I try to kick her out,

she refuses to leave.

Is she human or a suckerfish?

She clings on like there's no tomorrow.

And there's something fishy about that break-in.

Don't you think?

- You feel it too? - Mm.

Honestly, I've been suspicious since the beginning.

A thief broke into her house,

but instead of feeling troubled and checking in with the police,

what did she do? She went to stay at her ex's. Completely carefree.

It's definitely suspicious.

I think you have to be a Nancy Drew.

Whether or not the thief exists,

I don't think it's a tough case to crack.

What do you feel like today?

How about a sukiyaki buffet? You've been craving it, haven't you?

Maybe later.

I feel like something close to Yiwha's place.

What do you want in that area?

I don't know. But I have something to do nearby later today.

Okay. Sure.

Oh?

Why are you two back home so early tonight?

We hurried back to see you.

We have something important to discuss with you.

What about the break-in? What did the police say?

Well, I called them this afternoon.

They haven't caught the thief.

They said they'd call if there was an update.

Which precinct is it?

Min Buri.

Hm. Ran and I just went there.

The police said

no one filed a report about a break-in at your place.

Oh.

I knew it. I remember it wrong.

I went to Nong Chok Precinct.

It's closer.

We went there as well. The police told me no one filed a report.

Yiwha, admit it.

You made this all up.

Don't make yourself look like an even bigger fool.

All right. I'll admit it.

I didn't file a police report.

But I really saw a thief at my place.

I saw it with my own two eyes.

Here's a CCTV footage from the house opposite yours.

From the time when you were inside until Ran arrived at your place.

I didn't see anyone breaking in,

not even a single cat or a dog.

And don't say your eyes played tricks on you.

Cut the act and get out of my condo.

Get out! Go!

I'm staying!

I told you I really saw a thief break in.

If the CCTV didn't catch them,

then that means there's a ghost at my house.

But I'm scared of ghosts. I can't go back there.

What ghost? Nonsense!

You're at a loss, so you're using a ghost as an excuse?

Oh? Ghosts really exist!

And I believe in them.

But it's none of my business if you don't.

Ran, I'm not leaving.

You know I'm scared of ghosts.

Are you really going to make me stay there?

You know I'm terrified. I don't want to sleep alone.

I'll stay here. I'm so scared!

You have to leave!

Get up!

- Get up! - I'm not leaving!

I said I'm not leaving!

- I said leave! - No!

- I said leave! - I'm not going to!

I said get out!

- Do you want me to tell Toi? - Enough!

Grace, that's enough.

Let her stay for another night.

All right. Just one more night.

You have to pack your things and leave my place tomorrow.

Don't even leave a single thing behind. Do you hear me?

- I asked you if you heard me! - Enough, Grace.

Let's go to the bedroom.

Come on.

Come on.

Ran, wake up.

Ran, get going.

I'm going to keep an eye on Yiwha

so she'll pack her things and leave.

Don't give in and stop me again, understand?

Mm. But...

you have to speak to her nicely.

I don't want an argument to break out.

It's too late to be nice.

So what time are you going to start packing?

Why are you in such a hurry to kick me out?

Can't I just play on my phone for a little bit longer?

Stop getting on my nerves! Pack your things and get out!

I've been putting up with you for far too long!

I don't think it'll kill you if you have to put up for a bit longer.

- Grace. - Yiwha, you liar!

Mom?

Toi!

Hello.

Ran, can you get me some pork?

What do you think? Isn't it delicious?

I woke up very early to cook all this up for you.

I'll always find your cooking delicious.

See how much I'm eating?

By the way, Grace.

I heard you've been learning how to cook with Toi. How did it go?

I've never seen you cook for Ran.

You better be careful.

Ran might prefer my cooking instead.

Toi, you came all the way here. Is something the matter?

Do I really need a reason?

My son lives here. I'm just checking up on him.

Besides, Yiwha is also here.

So I plan to stay for a few days.

Mom, what?

Are you going to stay the night?

Yes, why are you so surprised?

Can't I stay?

Of course you can. But why would you?

Yiwha's leaving today.

Both of us agreed to stay, didn't we?

That's right, Toi.

Actually, I think the more, the merrier.

Like a family.

Maybe once they leave for work,

we can get groceries

- for dinner tonight. - That's great.

It will be ready for when they get back.

And in the meantime, we'll be...

Come on, Toi.

Grace.

Aren't you going to ask the owner

whether you have her permission or not first?

This is my condo,

not a homeless shelter.

There's no revolving door for homeless people.

Grace, did you just call Toi a homeless person?

- I was referring to you, wench. - Hey!

Your rudeness really can't be changed.

Do you really expect me to accept you as my daughter-in-law?

- But Yiwha... - Grace.

That's enough.

Mom, I'll calm her down.

Grace, enough.

Come on. Let's go to the bedroom.

Grace, stop.

Enough.

Grace.

You have to stop right now.

If you get into another fight with Mom, we'll have to break up.

What does that have to do with this?

Why does our love have to depend on someone else?

Shouldn't it stay between us?

Grace, I wasn't dropped off by a stork.

I have a mother.

And I can't cut ties with her either.

Yes, I understand family.

But your mom's always conspiring with Yiwha.

I'm not okay with that.

Grace,

I know.

I know this is rather unusual.

But if you put up with it

and prove to Mom that we really are in love,

you'll win her heart entirely.

Once you win her over, she'll always love you.

Take Yiwha as an example.

Grace,

you're more talented and smarter than Yiwha.

I believe you can do it.

Eat up.

Toi,

you can sleep in the same bed with Ran tonight.

I'll sleep on the floor with some blankets.

No,

I'll sleep on the couch. I like a hard surface to sleep on.

Soft mattresses hurt my back.

No problem.

Yiwha,

I'll get you some blankets so you can sleep on the floor.

Grace,

that isn't right.

She's your guest. Let her use the bed.

Aoi, Chod,

this is the worst decision I've ever made.

I let my boyfriend's ex stay at our place

for many days.

And now I've let his mother stay the night here as well.

So this is the consequence that shouldn't have happened.

With some people, the more you put up with them,

the more inconsiderate they become.

Tell me who you're going to choose.

You brazen woman!

- Grace! - Let go of me!

Go away! Get lost!

- Go! Get! - Mom!

I can't leave Mom, Grace.

I'm not asking you to leave her.

We just have to stay away from her.

You have to make your own decisions.

Especially about who you're going to be in a relationship with.

Don't let her choose for you like you're a little kid.

Toi's about to jump off the roof.

Ouch.

Show us your muscles.

I don't have any. I'm a tiny little girl.

Very fragile.

See, guys? I'm being bullied again.

That's not true. She's the one who's been bullying me.

She enjoys it.

Which dance move do you like?

Stop. Don't put it around my neck.
