Original subtitles

I need romance.

I need romance.

I've grown to like you.

It was a confession that I never expected.

A red light is flashing a warning at me.

But...

Since when? Why? Why do you like me?

It's not been that long since we met,

Our first impression was bad, and I'm not the lovable type.

Besides, you told me that I was so twisted...

Do you always look for logical reasons when you start dating?

Then,

should I start...

without checking things like these?

I...

The moment I saw his eyes, my mind went blank.

Women instinctively know when the moment to kiss comes.

He's

going to come closer to me soon.

I...

kiss first before I start.

I have to push him away.

I don't want to

push him away.

Lips are the most sensitive and delicate part of a woman's body.

The part where you feel first

and where that feeling lasts until the end.

It's the place that makes you remember it for the longest time,

and that's closest to your heart.

A kiss that cannot be compared to any other kisses.

A kiss that opens up a whole new world for you.

A kiss that wakes up

every single sensation in your body.

There is a kiss that feels like your first kiss.

A particular day, a particular moment, a particular mood.

And the moment that all those things come together.

You don't know how it feels?

When you kiss, you know if he's the right guy for you or not,

and if he will make your body hot or not.

All of those words

were true.

And I entered into a new world.

I thought it was real this time.

It is a whole new world.

Just wait a little longer. I'll throw you all away this time.

I'm serious!

PRODUCER MIN-AE JANG HEE-JAE JUNG

I'm waiting by my phone again.

Do you live alone?

It was too early to let him come over to my place.

My mom lives with my brother.

You must be scared at night.

Well...

I'm not that weak.

As you know.

Make sure you lock the door.

I'm feeling uncomfortable here, so you should go now.

You're not feeling uncomfortable. You're having butterflies.

Honey,

good night.

There's no relationship when you think about the end at the beginning,

but there's no relationship that comes without feeling unsure.

Why isn't he calling me?

Argh!

I should eat first.

I feel uncomfortable.

I'm trying to put the puzzle together

with the pieces of his heart that he gave me.

Think rationally, Joo-yeon Shin.

He said he kisses first before he starts dating someone,

and he kissed me.

It means we are dating. Right?

It's Sunday,

and he doesn't call me.

It doesn't make sense.

The hair treatment that Shingshing uses.

The shampoo that Shingshing uses.

She was out of a detergent too,

and she doesn't have a hammer, either.

Should I get these, too?

I know you're waiting for my call, Shingshing.

But guess what.

You'll be the one who will call me first.

Excuse me. You can't put this here. I told you it's not mine.

Oh, gosh.

Hey, what's all this?

He said you can eat this.

Here.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Enjoy your lunch.

What about you?

Did you eat?

Do you want to come over?

Aren't you still in the area if you just finished shopping?

I'm quite a busy person.

I wish it was the call that I'm waiting for.

Like that day some time ago, I came to this place again

expecting a coincidence.

Give me your hand.

Why?

Hold this. It'll keep your hands warm.

After all, what comes next is

doubt.

Was he even...

sincere about everything he did?

Hello, Hotel Maison de Fleurs. How may I help you?

Well...

Well...

Among the hotel's guests...

I soon then realized

that doing this kind of foolish thing was not the first time,

and that

I stepped into the hell called relationship.

Good night.

Honey.

I'm so busy that I can't date anyone,

but then, there's also no one to meet when I have time.

Same here.

You can call that guy, Min-jung.

You know we have rules to follow.

He comes to meet me when I want, then I go to meet him when he wants.

That's how dating normally works,

and from that moment, the hell of dating starts.

What do you mean?

Missing each other, wanting things, and getting disappointed.

And you fight, get hurt, and waste your energy to reconcile.

Then it gets hot again and cools down again.

Now, I understand your simple way of dating.

I'm sick and tired of the hell of dating.

Falling for a guy is a crazy thing to do.

Of course. It's a waste of money, time,

and your emotions.

-The meeting with Ms. O is at two, right? -Yep.

I just came back to the office from the meeting.

It's been a while.

I've seen your TV show from time to time.

I thought you'd call me,

at least once.

We're not on such good terms.

But I still waited.

I didn't know...

we'd end it so easily just like that.

It was you who wanted to break up.

-Did you forget that? -You didn't stop me.

You just couldn't say that you wanted to break up.

I thought you hated it when men cling to you.

How much do you know about me?

As much as I need to know.

You thought you did, but you actually never did.

So try to figure out from now on.

That's the reason why I'm here.

Since you've already gone through our business plan,

we should make an agreement for terms and conditions today.

I disagree. I think we need to fix the business plan first.

Merchandisers choose all the clothes and I just let you use my name?

This is fraud.

I can't allow you to use my name for products

that I don't even know of.

Why not?

What we want is your name, not your talent.

My name is all I have.

So I can't just sell anything.

We're the best team of this company. We don't just sell anything.

You can't say you know more than me when it comes to fashion.

This is a home shopping channel.

It's a different field from where you've been working.

The people we'll be working with are not top stars, and...

You wrote on your business plan

that you'll target new customer groups.

Even so, we're not going to sell our products to top stars.

We have know-hows from this industry for a long time.

And you called me because they didn't work out.

We called you because we need your face.

I won't sell my face for products that are not my style.

From planning to broadcasting, there are so many procedures...

Hee-jae.

So you're saying you want to control everything

from contacting and meeting to choosing designers?

Of course.

I can't go on TV for products that I didn't choose.

Call me again, then.

I'll see you again.

What's with her?

I thought all we needed to do was negotiate money.

She's telling us to take care of the small matters.

Bitch.

What's the most important quality of a merchandiser?

Being open-minded.

We're a home shopping channel,

and high-priced designer brands that she likes won't work.

The second mistake you made was bad communication skills.

Did Se-ryeong tell you that she would bring designer brands here?

You got ahead of yourself.

Do you think you can read other people's mind?

Third, you cut in when your team member was talking

in front of your business partner,

so she eventually looked down on your team member, too.

It wasn't that important to talk about that moment.

Lastly.

What did your team members say after Se-ryeong left?

She made me...

upset.

How the team members take their business partners

stem from the team leader's attitude.

I think Se-ryeong's attitude wasn't bad. She was very reasonable and professional.

She's way better than a style director who would sell her face for money.

Nevertheless, you are the best merchandiser

because you'll find a way to talk into Se-ryeong from now.

How?

Go and try to find a way.

You've never let me down.

Take responsibility for what you just said.

I'm going home after the general managers' meeting.

Hee-jae,

you were great earlier

trying to speak up despite your overpowering team members.

Thank you, Mr. Kang. I'll do my best.

-Keep up the good work. -Thank you.

You looked great, Tae-yoon.

Okay, shall we find alternatives now?

Come over tonight.

I miss you.

I think I'll be very late,

but I'll be there. I miss you, too.

Are you expecting a call?

You've been looking at your phone all day.

Well...

I'm here, Shingshing.

I guess she's busy working.

You're hopeless, Honey.

She turns the house into a mess when she's at home on weekends.

HONG-IK RESIDENCE

I feel like I get a year older whenever I come here.

But you are still beautiful.

Do you want me to wash your feet?

How about this instead of that?

Did you study a lot?

Well, just enough.

Don't study just enough. Study as if your life is on it,

for me.

I work as if my life is on it.

Don't wear those high heels.

Your legs are beautiful without them.

I know that.

It's perfect.

Wan Joo's diary

Yes, Mr. Kang.

The meeting ended at 10 p.m.

and there wasn't anything special.

It seemed like nobody would come up with anything,

so I ended it.

But this is not what I'm calling for actually.

What are you doing that you're out of breath?

I'm taking my clothes off.

You should've called me when you're done.

I'm done. I just changed.

I have a private question to ask you.

I don't want to hear it if it's about your dating.

I kissed

some guy.

So your question is if you should sleep with him or not?

No.

Listen.

On the day we kissed,

we had a great time together.

I felt like I was in love again.

I know it's not easy to feel that way

with just one kiss, but...

I did.

Isn't it amazing?

Yes, it's very amazing.

What's your problem, then?

He didn't call me that night,

and next day, either. He hasn't called me until now.

Why is this guy doing this to me?

Because I can't keep deceiving you.

I'm Wan.

Tell me from a guy's point of view.

Gosh.

Why do you ask that to another man

when you can ask me later?

You're cute, Joo-yeon.

Which part made you say that I'm cute?

-It's because you are cute. -What?

It's cute because it's you worrying about it, not somebody else.

You're perfect at everything, you're rational,

and you pretend to be tough.

But you are no different from Min-jung when dating someone.

It's kind of funny.

We are all the same.

It's a matter of talking about it or not.

There's a woman,

and she runs into the guy she broke up with a few years ago.

But the guy acts as if nothing happened.

Then would that woman ask someone the same questions?

A question like, "Why is this guy doing this to me?"

Tae-yoon,

women are all different.

Let's say there are 50,000 women.

Then there are 50,000 different thoughts.

Do you want to know why he did that to you?

-Why? -You probably looked pretty

on the day when he kissed you.

I always look pretty.

But what's important is what happened after.

What's important to men is that moment.

You looked beautiful that day, and the guy was attracted to you.

Just think about that.

How can I just think about...

Wan Joo's diary

Shingshing and I are best friends.

I'm sorry, Tae-yoon,

but I have to go.

December 21, Tuesday It's Shingshing's birthday.

December 28, Tuesday I hurt my hand today.

Hey, Sweet Potato!

What's going on? Why is my house so clean?

He's crazy!

He's out of his mind.

Hey, where are you?

I left your house five minutes ago,

and I'm still in the neighborhood.

So you mean you were in my house five minutes ago?

You seemed busy talking on the phone, so I couldn't say bye.

Did you hear what I said

on the phone?

You kissed some guy,

and it was great.

And you fell in love again.

I heard most of it that's important.

I heard that you waited for the guy to call.

That guy probably...

has no particular reason for not calling you.

What's important is...

that you felt love again.

Forget everything. It's for grownups

that you don't know about.

By the way,

it's winter, and you should wear something warm at home.

What did you see?

The things you showed me. How could I see more than that?

Goodness!

She hung up on me again.

Honey,

you should break this habit.

Don't forget how you felt that day,

Shingshing.

So now he comes here as if this is his house?

Should I change the code?

Oh, I changed your door lock code to my birthday.

What the...

What?

Oh, my gosh.

How am I going to get in?

Shoot!

Zero, one, zero, one. How many numbers do I have to try?

It was winter. When does winter start?

He will regret this!

I'm going to kill him!

I understand you bringing a girl, minimize the sound.

Do you think this is a motel?

Are you two shooting an adult video?

Hee-jae!

Hee-jae!

-Hee-jae! -Let go!

I'm sick of this.

Hee-jae...

Don't touch me.

I said I'm sick of this! I hate all of this!

I'm so humiliated that I want to die!

How could you date someone when you don't have money?

How could you date someone when you don't even have a job?

Are we even dating?

We always have to save money and restrain ourselves!

Don't call me again

because I'm not going to see you anymore.

I'm sorry, Hee-jae.

I hate you so much.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for saying things that hurt you.

I'm sorry that I said I wanted to break up.

There's nothing for you to be sorry about.

I'm the one who has to be sorry.

Are the fish fresh?

The carrots are fresh.

The word "fresh" makes me feel good.

Joo-yeon Shin is Shingshing.

Seok-hyun and Yeol-mae are best friends.

And Shingshing and I are best friends.

Shingshing is sick.

I held her hand while she was getting a shot.

I made a snowman with Shingshing for three hours.

It was really amazing.

For Shingshing, who worried if the snowman would melt down,

I made a tiny snowman and put it in the freezer.

I'm such a great man.

The most important part of women's body is their hair.

But Shingshing had a haircut.

How will Shingshing survive?

I'll save her.

It's Shingshing's birthday.

I gave her my piggy bank with the money I've been saving.

Shingshing. Buy everything you want to buy.

How much do you need?

It's Shingshing's birthday.

Joo-yeon Shin, you were my woman 20 years ago,

and I've been your man...

since then.

Is it too much?

No.

It's okay since it's true.

"Joo-yeon Shin, you were my woman 20 years ago,

and I've been your...

stranger?"

Oh, he meant he was a stranger to me.

I know you were,

idiot.

Yes,

we are all strangers after all.

Perfect strangers.

I decided not to think about

why he kissed me

and why he doesn't call me.

If he doesn't call me, then I won't wait.

One Americano, please.

One more, please.

I used my coupons.

I know that.

We've been saving those coupons together in our team,

but you're the one who gets free coffee.

This is for your coffee tomorrow morning.

Thank you.

I stayed up all night and came up with those.

What do you think of my idea?

Ms. O wouldn't say no to this, right?

I think this is great.

You're a genius, Hee-jae.

Cheers.

Look. What I'm saying is that

when Se-ryeong chooses three products,

we choose three, too.

Then she chooses one of the products from what we chose.

And she chooses one from what we chose

with a stylist's perspective.

And from those three products that Se-ryeong chose,

we choose one considering the home shopping market.

You got it.

Se-ryeong will choose something with her taste,

and we will do our job, too.

What do you think?

That's not good.

You smell like alcohol.

Ta-da!

It's really upsetting me.

No matter how much I try, I can't catch up with them

and always end up doing chores.

I thought I caught up with them this morning.

So what?

They have priorities to speak first.

You came up with the same idea and I think it's still great.

That's meaningless when they talk about it first.

We'll be in their positions someday.

Do you think they'll stay the same when we get promoted?

They'll get ahead of us, very far.

You are too greedy.

We'll have junior colleagues,

and they'll feel the same feeling, like you right now.

You've chosen the wrong people to compete against.

I like it.

It's not bad at all.

What made you come to my office?

You told me to come to your office to sign the contract.

Not to be arrogant, and to be considerate for our partners.

It was my boss's order.

Have you been working with Tae-yoon for a long time?

Do you know...

-my boss? -How is he at work?

Why do you ask?

It's kind of

my curiosity?

He's someone whom I trust and rely on.

He's a great person,

and he's someone whom I respect.

A man who is reasonable, comfortable to be with,

and warm?

Hey!

Don't even think about dating my boss.

But he's not your man.

Don't steal him since he's not my man.

You always steal my man.

Hey, it was only once.

So are you proud of yourself? I guess you should be awarded.

Are you proud for losing your man?

You're shameless.

Isn't that why you liked me?

It was definitely worthwhile to be friends with the black sheep.

This is why you should think first.

I wasn't a black sheep. I was a star who everyone loved.

I guess I liked how you were positive

without knowing that you were a snob.

You're right,

but everybody considered you as my maid.

Who said that?

No one needed to say it. You looked that way.

Damn you!

Should I rip the contract?

Oh gosh. You bitch.

You are 32 years old. Grow up already.

Pick up your pen.

It looks expensive!

Keep it.

It's a gift for you.

That was an expensive pen.

How have you been?

Why didn't you call me?

I'm sure you got the number on your phone.

I waited for you to call me.

Why did you wait?

I told you everything I wanted to say,

and I thought you had the key to the answer.

Please stop,

Shingshing.

Come back,

Shingshing.

And tell me what you feel now,

Shingshing.

There's something I never got to say.

Everything becomes clear now.

This jerk...

played with me.

Because I looked easy.

I had a great time

that day.

How long did you wait for?

Can't you change your way of saying hi to me now?

Like this?

Se-ryeong.

You buy me lunch today.

Okay. You came all the way here.

How come you don't say "honey" to me these days?

That's...

only for the person you love.

Wow. They look awfully great together.

Go and live happily ever after!

What?

Oh my goodness, what is that?

Wow! I don't think

I can't handle this.

Who did this terrible thing?

He changed the door code. Wow. The world is so tough.

Nobody is helping me.

It was winter. Yes, it was.

Okay, the first snow.

Wait a minute.

How old is he?

He is...

six years younger than me?

Then he was born in 1988.

The first snow in 1988.

All right! It's December 10.

One, two, one, zero.

You call this a riddle?

It's tomorrow.

The laundry delivery guy was here so I got yours for you.

Ring the bell when you come home.

You must not be at home. From Apartment 610.

You must not be at home.

From Apartment 610.

Who is it?

I live in 609. I brought your laundry.

Why is he there?

Does this make sense?

Hello? I got your laundry.

Please hang them on the doorknob.

I'm really sorry but I can't go out right now.

Okay. I'll hang them on the doorknob, then.

What am I going to do about this?

Number one.

Number two.

What are these?

Number three.

Which rice cake looks the most delicious to you?

I'm going to give it to my neighbors since I just moved in.

I don't want to eat it. Not at all.

What am I going to do?

Isn't number three the best?

I don't like the ones with chocolate.

I think number three is the best, too.

Okay. Good night.

Do you think I can fall asleep right now?

A handful of dried seaweed...

How much is a handful?

Okay, this is for 15 portions.

Well...

Okay.

Now I can soak it in water, right?

Oh my!

Darn it.

Oh gosh.

Let me wear the apron.

Argh!

This is why I don't like him.

I have to do this all the time if he moves in.

Come over for breakfast.

I'm going to work at 9 a.m. so don't be late.

Why aren't you here yet?

I just got here now.

Now?

Hi Shingshing.

Let's live happily together from now on,

Shingshing.

I'm speechless.

You are a mess.

You don't believe that I like you,

you avoid things that makes you uncomfortable,

and you keep treating me like a kid.

Excuse me!

He's awfully sweet.

I want to die and I'm serious.

-Why did you do that? -You don't need a reason to kiss.

I want to start over with you, Tae-yoon.

Se-ryeong snatched it.

You didn't give her the list, did you?

I heard you two dated a long time ago.

I like being alone, and it makes me feel comfortable.

It'd be best if you leave me alone.

And don't disturb me.
