Original subtitles

What is he talking about, we passed by each other at Namsan?

It's impossible.

No way.

- Mi Joo. - Surprise.

- What? - Come here right now, will you?

I think Se Gun has other intentions.

Duchamp exhibited a urinal.

Se Gun must think of Nan Hee as a urinal.

By getting Nan Hee on the runway, he must want to overturn...

Is this a fishing channel? Why are you so quiet?

Hey.

You're such a philanthropist.

I didn't know you had such a profound intention.

- What are you talking about? - Is she really your model?

She doesn't want to be.

She doesn't, right?

- Will she really not do it? - She won't.

What if I force her?

It'll go down in the history of the competition.

Hey.

Did I make her feel burdened?

You didn't say you were coming.

Does Tae Hyun know you're here?

Look at that. I thought I was indispensable to you.

You even won a scholarship while I was away.

Don't even get me started.

I went through so much humiliation doing part-time jobs.

I decided I'd rather study than work.

"Look at Nan Hee. Learn from her."

"When will you be as good as Nan Hee?"

I just got back, and I'll have to hear my mom nag.

That's what I want to say.

I already start to wish I was half as pretty as you are.

You're not back from Paris for good, are you?

Did something happen?

No, it's not like that.

Why did you come back in the middle of the semester?

Hey, have you seen my red notebook in the club room?

I took it home so I could give it to you when you're back.

That's a relief. I was worried I lost it for good.

Is it something important?

It probably is. To a guy I met.

(Six months earlier)

I'm not a weird person.

Most people who say that are weird.

Could I have your phone number?

- See? You're weird. - Wait.

(Park Se Gun)

- At least take this. - Why?

You'll want to call me.

Do you think I'll call you?

- Yes. - Why?

You have a lot of questions.

If you weren't going to call me, you'd just say, "Okay,"

and leave.

He saw you? How?

I don't know. I've never been to Namsan wearing this ring.

How could he have seen me there?

Exactly. That's strange.

Could he have seen his ideal type of girl there?

Could that be it?

Now that I think of it,

to your grandfather,

your grandmother looked exactly like actress Um Aing Ran.

Was it 1978? He once ran into Um Aing Ran on the street.

He held her thinking she was your grandmother, only to get slapped.

When I'm wearing the ring,

do I look like the girl to Se Gun?

(Queen of the Ring)

That dress is not for me.

- I'll be going now. - Okay.

At 2pm this Friday.

Make some time for me.

Do you want to meet up?

I realized that I know so little about you.

From what you like to what's on your mind,

how would I make a dress for you when I know nothing about you?

I said I can't be your model.

I'm going to make changes.

I'll design a new dress when I know more about you.

If you still don't like it, I'll give up.

Are you sure?

- Will you really give up? - Yes.

Mom, please.

Mom, go to your parents' house...

or something.

Your grandmother passed away in 1999.

I have nowhere to go.

He wants to get to know about me.

We'll go on a date.

From Battle of Myeongnyang to Battle of Inchon,

all historic events took place at night.

What could I do if I have to come home by 7pm?

Fine, I'll tell your dad I'm meeting other fermented soybean makers.

Call me when you're done.

Mom, you've never looked this beautiful.

My goodness.

Your dad might go on a business trip next week.

Really?

My goodness.

(Se Gun)

- It's him. - Oh, my.

Why is he calling me?

- Hello. - Is this Mi Joo?

Here. Try this.

It's melting in my mouth. It tastes amazing.

Isn't this expensive? I could have just had some udon or something.

Do you think I'm here to buy you nice food?

I wanted to try the food here before I meet Nan Hee on Friday.

Oh, is that why...

You said you'd make up for lying to me.

You work for Nan Hee's parents...

and even have been in her room. You must know her well.

You're right. I know her very well.

Well, try these. Tell me which one she'd like better.

Popcorn is on the right, and coke on the left.

Okay.

In case you want to hold my hand, on your right is a stranger. I'm...

on your left.

Was that too weak?

What?

Nan Hee must have dated countless guys so far.

Would her heart flutter at something like this?

Are you even practicing what you're going to say?

What was I thinking?

Don't get excited.

I'm not.

Don't enjoy it too much.

We're not on a date. This is just practice.

I'm telling you this...

so you won't get all devastated saying I hurt you or something.

There are only two cases where a guy looking this good likes you.

He's either a con man or your dad.

Guys like pretty girls.

Nan Hee prefers soju to beer. She can drink two bottles of soju.

She likes perfumes too. She loves the scent of roses.

- And... - Apples?

When it comes to fruits, she likes apples, watermelons, and grapes...

That's not what I meant.

- You. - Me?

I make sure to pay for other people's efforts.

How much are the apples?

It's 10 dollars for 8. Put them in this.

(10 dollars for 8 apples)

Give it to me. I'll pick them out.

There are many nice-looking ones. Why do you pick ugly ones?

They might end up left behind.

Pretty ones will be chosen by other people.

No one else than me would want these ugly guys.

Oh, my. You have an eye for apples.

Ugly ones taste better.

Pretty ones are covered with chemicals.

These guys overcame storms on their own.

Look. It looks so tasty, right?

Thank you.

As you picked ugly ones, I'll give you two extra.

Don't. Ugly apples are still apples. Why would you sell them off?

You're making them look like they have less value.

I'll just take 8 apples for 10 dollars.

Oh, my.

- Here. - Thank you.

- Bye. - Bye.

Thank you.

Hey.

Please...

don't call me again.

I almost got hurt.

It sounds like you're dumping me.

You and I shouldn't see each other.

Now that you've practiced, Nan Hee will enjoy the date.

Is this the last time I'll see you?

Let's shake hands.

Thank you for your help.

I'll get going.

What's with her? She acts as if we're breaking up or something.

It sure is sweet.

(Competition application deadline D-11)

Guys like pretty girls.

It's okay. I can meet him as pretty Nan Hee.

As long as I'm wearing the ring, I'll be the prettiest girl to him.

When we first met at Namsan,

you smiled at me.

I wonder how the girl looks.

- Take a look. - Excuse me.

- Excuse me. - Come take a look.

- Take a look. - Excuse me.

I know what Nan Hee wants the most.

What is it?

The most ordinary relationship.

- Welcome. - We have many good-looking members.

After dating too many guys, does she want something ordinary?

What is he saying?

- Do I fill out this form? - Are you a freshman?

What would be the most ordinary relationship like?

Here.

There it is.

What's that?

The only thing I look forward to in Korea.

Hey, when you're talking to someone for the first time in 6 months,

would you text or call?

Is it a guy?

- Do you think it'd be a girl? - You should call.

Waiting for a reply after texting would be painful.

Right?

Who is this guy?

Who is this?

What's with him? He won't pick up.

I see two Nan Hee's.

Am I getting sick? Do I need a shot?

Se Gun.

- What are you going to do about me? - What do you mean?

I see two...

Everyone in the world might start to look like you in my eyes.

Well, here you go.

I've never tasted anything this good.

This person keeps calling me. I don't recognize the number.

Take it.

Whatever. Try this too.

There you go.

- I love it. - You do?

The weather is nice.

Right?

Are you okay?

I'm totally fine.

Okay.

10 o'clock. Hottie approaching.

He's so hot.

Be still my heart.

If you're ugly, at least move quickly.

You're so skinny. You must be dehydrated already.

I wish you were perfect in every way. What a shame.

It's because you're perfect. There can't be two perfect creatures.

I wonder how many guys you walked this path with.

Me?

Can you go with Nan Hee?

I don't think anything will happen to her.

- How do you know? - I just do.

I'll say it's my first time.

Is her house far from here?

- Who? - Mi Joo.

No. It's around there.

- Why? - No reason.

I wondered if it's dark there too.

Careful.

Why is that there?

I'd better remember not to come this way again.

You don't need to remember.

I'll take you home from now on,

regardless of whether it rains or snows.

Someone told me you like the scent of roses.

Put it on whenever you see me.

Thanks.

- I'm going to leave first. - What?

Stand here and watch me go until I'm this big.

- Why? - I think I'll feel good...

having a beauty like you watch me.

You have to watch.

- I don't want to. - You're watching, right?

- Am not. - Yes, you are.

So this is what it feels like to have someone walk me home.

It's so easy with this.

Finally, Dad's going away on business.

You're crossing the Pacific or at least the Indian Ocean, right?

He's going to Shanghai and Vladivostok.

Yes. Don't come right home,

and take a train trip around Russia.

What if someone steals your mom while I'm away?

That won't happen.

Honey, let's video chat every night.

Yes, let's.

Nan Hee, let's go away this weekend.

Just the two of us?

It's a job.

My brother's company is filming a wedding...

and they need workers.

It's near Yongin, which is near your place,

and the pay is this much.

- What do you say? - I'm totally in.

Right?

What's with that ugly ring on that ugly finger?

This? It's a family heirloom. It was my grandma's.

You hated your grandma...

for naming you Mo Nan Hee.

I did not.

I saw you...

with Se Gun yesterday.

Why is he so interested in you?

Why can't he be interested in me?

He goes around dumping celebrities.

He judges and ranks girls based on their looks. He's dangerous.

In other words, I'm ugly.

Has any guy been interested in me in the past 15 years?

If a guy like Se Gun is interested in me,

shouldn't you wish me luck, rather than criticize?

Why do you want me to wish you luck?

(Se Gun)

Hello? Now?

Okay.

- I'm out. - Hey. Hey!

You said I don't have to be your model.

I need to know your measurements so that I can do my drawings.

You planned this, didn't you?

I was looking forward to it.

158cm?

That's strange. You look like you're at least 170cm.

It's because I have good proportions.

People say I look tall because I have the ideal proportions.

Even still...

20...

29?

They had spicy pork for lunch, so I ate three servings.

Even my waist is 30.

Did I eat too much?

Is something wrong with my eyes?

Measure my chest.

I'm wearing a padded bra, right?

What's the measurement?

This is...

about what I estimated.

Did you sleep well?

Yes.

Not me.

I couldn't sleep.

Wow. They've taken spam to another level.

"Hi. I'm the girl you met at Namsan."

"I'm texting since you're not answering your phone."

"Call me at this number when you're free."

You're right here. Who is this person?

It must be a mistake.

- That's odd. - What?

How did they know about Namsan?

I should call...

I was hoping to sleep tonight.

(Mi Joo)

Hi. Today? Okay. See you later.

Let's cross.

What girl did he meet at Namsan?

Why is she suddenly contacting him?

Nan Hee! Over here!

Are you okay?

It's back.

Let's go.

How much did you drink?

Let's leave.

Hold on.

Finally, it's better.

Why won't he call?

This is Nan Hee. My best friend since kindergarten.

Weren't you alone?

You said she's the best in your department.

Yes. She's the best. She won the scholarship last semester.

That's what you meant. I thought...

Let's talk another time.

Don't go.

Do you know what I missed the most while I was in Paris?

Your specialty teabag soju.

Make it.

You won't do it?

I'm hurt. I'll do anything you ask.

That's right. You never ask me to do anything,

since you're better at everything than I am.

Am I your bartender?

Can't you do that for a friend?

How much must a friend do?

At least as much as I do.

What have you done for me?

I'm letting you hang out with guys you couldn't get without me.

Must you insult me like this in front of people?

I was worried something happened to you...

You heard something, didn't you? What did you hear?

People think you're nice, don't they?

You're the one who looks down on me while pretending to tend to me.

Call me when you need your friend Nan Hee, and not teabag soju.

Her temper is as nasty as her face.

Darn it. It's raining.

(I hope you will say, "Yes.")

Nan Hee. I'm sure you'll like it this time.

Pizza delivery.

- How much is it? - 25 dollars.

Where are you?

I'll take you home from now on,

regardless of whether it rains or snows.

I don't think that was so wise.

What do you mean?

That smells incredible.

I was in a rush. Do you want one?

Mo Nan Hee. You were so angry just a minute ago,

but the smell of pizza made you feel better.

Hey.

If you kiss, it means you're dating, right?

- Yes? - Yes?

You said, "Yes."

We're home already.

This is our first day, so...

A picture?

What happens with pictures? Will he see me as I really am?

Okay. Look here.

Wait.

Why?

Actually, I'm worried about my mom.

You're in front of your house.

I need to check on her.

What happens in pictures?

Nan Hee.

What the...

Why is your face...

- Why is it... - What about...

my face?

Look. My face is double the size of yours.

You look pretty if you have the ring on when you take it.

Let me see.

(Park Se Gun, Day 1 starting today)

Did you see?

- Look. - Oh, no.

- Did you see? - I know.

(Park Se Gun, Day 1 starting today)

Oh, my gosh.

This is huge. Se Gun is dating Nan Hee.

- What? - Look.

Nan Hee? How could he...

What is this feeling?

I'm even more annoyed than when he dated a celebrity.

Hey. Isn't this your friend?

(Park Se Gun, Day 1 starting today)

(Park Se Gun, Day 1 starting today)

What's going on? Red light, green light, 1, 2, 3?

I have so much respect for you.

You give us losers hope.

You reignited the dying flame of love.

- What are you talking about? - Didn't you see?

(Park Se Gun, Day 1 starting today)

Great going.

Thanks.

Isn't that Se Gun?

I'm so jealous. Are they dating?

- This is huge. - He's so hot.

- Are they really dating? - He's perfect.

- I'm so jealous. - Are they holding hands?

I'm so jealous. They must be dating.

- I'm so jealous. - He's really good-looking.

- Incredible. - That's my spot.

- I'm so jealous. - Totally jealous.

Oh, my gosh. It's Se Gun.

Isn't that Se Gun?

Who is she?

- Did you see? - I'm so jealous.

- Oh, my gosh. - It must be real.

- He dumped a singer for her? - I'm so jealous.

Shall we go in now?

- Let's take another lap. - Again?

- That was the third lap already. - Just one more.

Right over here.

Why don't we walk around somewhere else?

Where?

This was at Barba Lee's fashion show.

You saw?

Is it too fancy for someone in her 50s?

I haven't seen her in so long, I don't know if it'll look good.

You haven't seen her in a while? Who?

Your aunt?

Who is it?

You're going to tease me.

Who is it?

My mom.

- Your mom in the US? - Yes.

She's coming for the fashion show.

I want her to see me win.

I see.

What should I say when I see her?

"Hi, Mom."

That's too casual.

"Long time no see"? That's awkward.

Why is that so hard?

You like to practice, so go ahead.

Okay.

Se Gun. My son.

My mom isn't that flaky.

My bad. Then...

- It's been a while, son. - Yes, ma'am.

Are you on an interview? Are you meeting the CEO?

I didn't want to do it.

Did you speak to your mom casually or formally?

Mom!

I don't...

remember.

What?

I haven't seen her in seven years.

I haven't seen her since she got married again in the US,

so it's the first time since I was 15.

Anyway, it's okay. Forget it.

Try it. You haven't seen her in seven years.

If you go, "Yes, ma'am," "Hi, Mom,"

she'd be so hurt.

Practice with me.

The gate opens. Your mom walks out.

Son.

I said I don't want to.

My son. You've gotten even handsomer.

You've grown up well.

This is embarrassing.

Don't cry in front of others.

I want to be the only one who sees you cry,

so you have to come to me whenever you want to cry.

Why should I apologize?

She humiliated me in front of the guys.

You didn't tell her why you're back, did you?

I won't. I'm not going to.

Why won't you tell your friend?

She was like that because she didn't know.

I wanted to graduate from a school abroad, hold an exhibit,

and finally beat Nan Hee, but I failed and came back.

She never once tried to beat you.

She's just trying to beat herself.

You, my mom... Everyone is on Nan Hee's side.

Why, you brats...

Nan Hee whines that I'm on your side and you whine that I'm on hers.

Did you take my side in front of her?

That's right. I got yelled at for taking your side since I was seven.

So you apologize first this time...

for my sake.

You tell her for me.

Look at you. The seven-year-old Mi Joo is back.

Do you think grabbing my sleeve will fix everything?

Please?

Save this and use it another time.

I'll do anything you want at that time.

You apologize yourself this time.

He goes to our school?

(Park Se Gun)

He's caught in the net. Now it's time to pull him in.

As you all know,

the deadline for the competition is this week. Thus,

we collected three drawings per new member...

to be submitted in the preliminary round.

Let's take a look.

(Applicant drawings)

Goodness.

Whose are these...

Excuse me. I'm Byun Tae Hyun, pre-law sophomore.

Byun Tae...

What ambitious drawings. Yes.

Take a seat. Next.

Is this really a new member? These are beautiful.

It's me. Mo Nan Hee, fine arts major.

You?

Two more orders, please.

I didn't know you were interested in fashion.

You always wear plaid shirts.

Yesterday, it was argyle. Tartan the day before, and gingham today.

I thought someone in the fashion club would know the difference.

I know your official reason for applying.

What's your real reason?

I wanted to get to know you.

Nan Hee is...

pretty only if you look carefully. You need to look for a while.

I've been close to her for 15 years, and I've been a complete idiot...

who has only recently realized how pretty she is.

I wondered how you realized it after only 15 minutes.

You're the one who was wrong.

Why does it take long to see that she's pretty? It takes one second.

Okay. Since everyone is here, let's have a round...

of teabag soju to welcome the new members.

Teabag soju?

She taught you that, right? Kang Mi Joo.

You know Mi Joo too?

I thought you wouldn't know her since you took last year off.

Her? You mean the beauty of the fine arts department?

I really wanted to see her.

The beauty of the fine arts department?

Her?

Yes.

But you invented the teabag soju.

I learned it from her.

Me too.

Mi Joo taught me.

Okay! To commemorate today,

Mo Nan Hee will sing you a song!

Just sit down.

TT

TT

You don't know how I feel

You're so mean, You're so mean

TT

TT

I'm going to cry

I'm not myself

I feel like I'm not myself

I love you so much, baby

I thought I was all grown up

It's sold out.

That was ordered by someone else.

Then may I order one too?

Why does a dress cost 628 dollars?

Nan Hee.

Hi.

I didn't tell you I was here. How did you find me?

How could I not find the only rose among a field of squids?

Am I that pretty to you?

Look. How is this not pretty?

I wish I could see how pretty I am.

You really can't see it?

Why are we here?

Would you draw me?

How?

Exactly how you see me.

All done.

What's wrong?

You said you first saw me at Namsan, right?

Nan Hee.

Why are you so late?

Sorry. I met someone.

Was I carrying...

a red journal?

Yes. I saw it at your house after the fermented soybean workshop.

You put my number there but didn't call for six months.

If I'm contacting someone after six months,

is it better to call or text?

I keep getting a call from an unknown number.

"Hi. I'm the girl you met at Namsan."

Why won't he call?

What's wrong?

Nan Hee. Hey!

Nan Hee!

Why you?

You can be loved be anyone.

It's my first time.

It's the first time ever that I'm being loved.

Mi Joo.

What am I supposed to do?

The job is at 5pm today. You didn't forget, did you?

(Mi Joo)

- Hello? - Where are you?

I need to talk to you.

I'm at school.

Good. Me too.

You're at the school? Why?

Remember the guy I told you about? Turns out he goes to our school.

Where are you?

Me? The School of Art and Design.

Darn it.

(Moonsong University)

What the...

Nan Hee.

- Are you okay? - Yes.

Do you know how worried I was? I couldn't reach you since yesterday.

Well... The thing is...

Come with me.

That's great. Looking good.

Hold her a little closer.

- Hey. - More tenderly.

Why did you bring him here?

Sorry, but I have my reasons.

(Mi Joo)

- Hey. - Nan Hee must really be angry.

She hung up on me.

I'm with her now.

Did you hang up on Mi Joo?

I had my reasons.

You've been saying that a lot lately.

There's a rumor you and Se Gun are dating. Is it true?

We are dating,

but he isn't dating me.

What?

No.

It is me, but...

What are you talking about? Is it you or not?

Get your head on straight.

This is wrong, right?

What?

I know whom he sees me as.

This isn't right.

I don't understand a thing you're saying.

I think I should tell him.

I probably should.

Nan Hee.

You like me because I'm pretty, right?

Yes, you're so pretty.

Is that what you want to hear?

What if I'm not pretty?

Why would you even think about that? You're so beautiful.

What if I'm not?

Isn't it the same for you?

You like me because I look good.

What's so wrong about that?

Did something happen? You've been acting strange since yesterday.

Tell me what happened.

Tell me.

Nan Hee!

Nan Hee!

Nan Hee!

Nan Hee!

- Have you seen Nan Hee? - What?

I thought she was with you.

She doesn't have her phone with her.

Did you guys have a fight?

It's not like that.

You've been friends with her for 15 years, right?

Yes, why?

Something's wrong with either my eyes or her.

I couldn't see clearly because we were in the water,

but she looked like someone else for a second.

You've been suspicious from the beginning.

After making a fuss about how pretty she is all this time,

she looks like someone else now?

That's not what I mean.

Forget it. Look for her in the lobby.

I'll look in the cafeteria.

Nan Hee.

Nan Hee.

Tae Hyun.

Are you okay?

Why are you soaked?

Isn't Se Gun looking for me?

Something happened between you two, right?

I told you he's dangerous.

He's not like that.

Are you still on his side?

As soon as he saw me, he said you look like someone else.

He's being ridiculous.

He saw me.

You should change first.

No. Se Gun shouldn't see me.

What's wrong with you both?

Tae Hyun, there's something I have to get back.

(Se Gun)

- Tell him I've left. - What?

If you tell him I've left, I'll tell you everything.

She's left?

She ran off without saying anything to me?

She's been feeling sick since yesterday.

She must have strained herself.

Is everything you're saying true?

Don't you trust Nan Hee?

I need to finish up something. You should go home too.

Do you expect me to believe that?

If this is not true,

how will you explain why he fell in love with me?

You can't.

Isn't it obvious? She's pretty.

Why does it take long to see that she's pretty? It takes one second.

Still, I can't...

You'll be able to see it yourself once I find the ring.

All right. Although I still can't believe it,

let's just say there's such a ring. What are you going to do now?

Are you going to stay with him looking like someone else?

I was going to tell him.

Knowing whom I look like in his eyes, how could I be with him?

In any case,

I want to say goodbye as the girl he likes.

I don't want him to find out...

the girl he likes actually looks like this.

I don't want him to see how I really look either.

So...

please help me find the ring.

I'll end things with him.

Please help me.

Will you?

I'll end things with him. Please help me.

The person you're calling is not picking up.

Please leave a message.

Why won't she pick up? She said she was here.

Gosh.

Se Gun.

- We finally... - Why are you here?

That's a rather rough way to greet someone.

I'm asking why you're here, Mo Nan Hee!

Mo Nan Hee?

Kang Mi Joo?

Mi Joo.

Because Se Gun's ideal type of girl looks like me,

you look like me in his eyes? Is that possible?

What a dramatic turn of events!

Se Gun is smiling. That jerk.

- Why don't we ride bicycles? - I'm wearing high heels.
