She Was Bullied at School for Her Looks… Until Two Boys Stood Beside Her | True Beauty Recap — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00The drama begins by introducing a little
- 0:02girl. Everyone who saw her would ask her
- 0:04mother, "Is this a boy?" Her mom would
- 0:07reply, "No, this is a girl, and her name
- 0:09is Kimju." Friends, Kimju was not
- 0:12considered beautiful at all. In fact,
- 0:14she looked like a boy, which is why
- 0:16everyone called her one. Neighbors and
- 0:18relatives constantly mocked her face.
- 0:20But J's mom would comfort her, saying,
- 0:22"You will become beautiful when you grow
- 0:24up." One day when J went to school
- 0:26wearing a Cinderella dress, the other
- 0:28children started calling her monster and
- 0:30ugly. This broke J's heart. Years later,
- 0:34we see her in high school. She wants to
- 0:35make friends in her class, but no one
- 0:37wants to befriend her. Some mean girls
- 0:39constantly harass J and force her to do
- 0:41their work. At the same school, there's
- 0:42a boy who works in the cafeteria. J
- 0:45develops a crush on him. One day, she
- 0:47gathers the courage to give him a gift
- 0:48and confess her feelings. But instead of
- 0:50accepting it, the boy becomes furious.
- 0:53He throws her gift away and cruy tells
- 0:55her, "First, go look at your face in the
- 0:56mirror. You're so ugly." His words
- 0:58shattered J. At that very moment, the
- 1:00same mean girls secretly record a video
- 1:02of her. With tears streaming down her
- 1:04face, J asks them, "Why do you hate me
- 1:06so much? What have I ever done to you?"
- 1:09But her pain doesn't move them. They
- 1:11share the video with the whole class,
- 1:13and J becomes the target of relentless
- 1:15ridicule. Soon after, we see J standing
- 1:18on the rooftop of a building, broken and
- 1:21ready to end her life. But just then, a
- 1:23boy rushes to her side and grabs her
- 1:25hand, pulling her back from the edge. In
- 1:28the struggle, Ju's glasses fall off. She
- 1:30tries to see the boy's face, but without
- 1:32her glasses, everything is blurry. This
- 1:34boy is Su Ho, the male lead of the
- 1:37story. Su Ho looks at her and says,
- 1:39"What is so unbearable that you're ready
- 1:41to commit suicide? You should never do
- 1:44such a thing. If you can't think of
- 1:45yourself, at least think of your family.
- 1:47What will they do without you?" With
- 1:49that, Suo turns to leave. On his way
- 1:51down, he discovers the elevator is
- 1:53broken, so he takes the stairs. Ju,
- 1:55unable to see clearly, follows behind
- 1:57him, pleading, "Please help me, sir. I
- 1:59can't see anything. I'll fall." And then
- 2:01she trips down the stairs. Su Ho lifts J
- 2:04onto his back and carries her. She
- 2:05whispers, "Thank you, sir, for helping
- 2:07me." Su Ho replies sharply, "Why do you
- 2:10keep calling me sir? If you say it
- 2:12again, I'll leave you here." Later, he
- 2:14places her gently in a taxi so she can
- 2:16get home safely. When J returns home,
- 2:18she finds her mother crying after a
- 2:20fight with her father. Through her own
- 2:21tears, J pleads, "Mom, please get
- 2:24plastic surgery for my face. Everything
- 2:27will be fine if you do." But her mother
- 2:29scolds her, "Why are you talking such
- 2:31nonsense?" In the next scene, J watches
- 2:33makeup tutorials on her phone. The
- 2:35following day at school, she shows up
- 2:37with makeup on, but instead of looking
- 2:39pretty, her clumsy attempt makes her
- 2:40look funny and frightening. The students
- 2:42burst out laughing, mocking her even
- 2:44more. At home, even her mother is
- 2:46startled by her face. J cries, "Please,
- 2:49Mom, transfer me to another school. I
- 2:51can't go back there. I've become the
- 2:52biggest joke." Her mother finally
- 2:54agrees, saying, "We will return to our
- 2:56old house, and you'll transfer to a new
- 2:58school there." Overjoyed, Jude dances
- 3:00with happiness. Later, we see J buying
- 3:03makeup products at the market. At home,
- 3:05she practices endlessly, failing again
- 3:07and again, but refusing to give up. She
- 3:09keeps trying until she learns to apply
- 3:11it perfectly. Eventually, Ju's family
- 3:13moves back to their old home. On her
- 3:15first day at the new school, she enters
- 3:17the gates transformed. Her makeup is
- 3:19flawless, and everyone stares in awe,
- 3:21whispering, "How can this girl be so
- 3:23beautiful?" For the first time, J begins
- 3:25to believe she might really look
- 3:27beautiful. Meanwhile, the teacher checks
- 3:29the records, expecting the new student
- 3:30to be one admitted for high grades. But
- 3:33that student is not Jew, it's someone
- 3:35else. Soon, Su Ho walks in because he is
- 3:39the one who earned admission with his
- 3:41excellent grades. The moment J sees him,
- 3:43she is stunned. She has never laid eyes
- 3:46on such a handsome boy. The teacher asks
- 3:48Su Ho to escort J to her class. As J
- 3:50follows behind, she accidentally bumps
- 3:52into him. Her makeup smudges onto his
- 3:55uniform. Every girl in school adors Su
- 3:57Ho, but he shows no interest in anyone.
- 4:00Looking down at his stained shirt, Suho
- 4:02grows angry and orders J to clean it. In
- 4:04class, the teacher introduces J to her
- 4:06classmates. Everyone warmly welcomes her
- 4:08and compliments her beauty. Everyone
- 4:10except Su Ho, who sits quietly in his
- 4:12seat. Soon, two girls approach J and
- 4:14become friends with her. One is Lei, who
- 4:17only befriends beautiful girls. The
- 4:18other is Kang Su, who herself is very
- 4:21pretty. Later, J tries to clean Su Ho's
- 4:23uniform, but the stain won't wash out
- 4:25because her makeup is waterproof. She
- 4:27apologizes and promises, "I'll get it
- 4:29dry cleananed." Su Ho brushes her off,
- 4:32saying, "Forget it. just throw it away
- 4:33or not before walking away. Leeli and
- 4:35Kang Su explain that's just how he is.
- 4:38The girls invite Ju to dinner after
- 4:39school. For the first time, she goes out
- 4:41with friends, eats together, and takes a
- 4:43group photo. She can hardly believe it.
- 4:46Finally, she belongs somewhere. That
- 4:48night, Jude chats happily in the group's
- 4:50online chat, but her brother secretly
- 4:52snaps a picture of her without makeup.
- 4:54He threatens, "You might look beautiful
- 4:56at school, but I'll show your friends
- 4:57your real face. Then everyone will know
- 5:00the truth." Desperate, J demands,
- 5:01"Delete it right now or I won't spare
- 5:03you." He smirks and bargains. "I'll
- 5:05delete it, but only if you get me the
- 5:07latest volume of You Are the Devil."
- 5:09Reluctantly, J agrees. She rushes to a
- 5:12bookstore where she finds the last copy.
- 5:14Just as she reaches for it, Su Ho grabs
- 5:16it first. J tries to snatch it back, and
- 5:18in the scuffle, they both tumble to the
- 5:20ground. Their eyes meet and for a brief
- 5:22moment, both are frozen in surprise. Ju
- 5:24wondered to herself, did he recognize
- 5:26me? While Su Ho was thinking, "Is this
- 5:29the same girl who tried to commit
- 5:31suicide that day?" J began to walk away
- 5:33with the comic book, but Su Ho stopped
- 5:35her, saying, "I picked up that book
- 5:37first." Reluctantly, J handed it to him
- 5:40and turned to leave. But just then, the
- 5:41shopkeeper brought her a bowl of
- 5:43noodles, insisting, "You can't<unk>t
- 5:44leave until you finish these." Ju
- 5:46panicked. If she ate, Zu Ho might
- 5:48recognize her, but she had no choice.
- 5:50She sat down, eating as fast as she
- 5:52could. Su Ho came and sat right beside
- 5:55her, sliding the book toward her. As
- 5:57long as you're eating, you can read this
- 5:58comic, he said. Ju quickly finished the
- 6:00noodles and hurried away. Su Ho couldn't
- 6:02understand why she acted as if they had
- 6:04never met. The shopkeeper came over and
- 6:06casually mentioned her name, telling
- 6:07him, "I've known Ju since she was a
- 6:10child. She used to come here often."
- 6:12Later, J went to a show to buy makeup
- 6:14and ran into Seom, the very girl who
- 6:16used to bully her. Memories of the
- 6:18torment came rushing back, and J burst
- 6:21into tears, running out. Suddenly, a
- 6:23motorbike skidded in front of her and
- 6:24the rider fell. Concerned, J asked, "Are
- 6:27you okay?" The boy removed his helmet,
- 6:29revealing a strikingly handsome face.
- 6:31This was Han, the second male lead. But
- 6:33Han didn't stay long. He hurried away,
- 6:36chased by a group of boys. In his haste,
- 6:38he handed his helmet to J before
- 6:40disappearing. Moments later, the boys
- 6:42cornered Han and began to beat him. Only
- 6:44the sudden arrival of the police saved
- 6:46him. J later tried to find him to return
- 6:48the helmet, but when she bumped into
- 6:50Han, he suspiciously demanded, "Who are
- 6:52you? Why are you here?" Frightened, J
- 6:55fled, still carrying his helmet.
- 6:58Meanwhile, Su Ho was at wrestling
- 6:59practice when his father appeared after
- 7:01seven long years. But Su Ho showed no
- 7:03joy. "You shouldn't have come," he said
- 7:06coldly. His father pleaded, insisting he
- 7:09cared, but their reunion quickly turned
- 7:10into a fight. Memories of his mother's
- 7:13death flashed through Zuho<unk>s mind,
- 7:14fueling his anger. After defeating his
- 7:16father, Su Ho turned to leave. His
- 7:18father called after him. Tomorrow is
- 7:20your birthday. Can we have dinner
- 7:22together? But Suho refused. He couldn't
- 7:24bear anyone knowing he was the son of a
- 7:26famous actor. Back at the comic shop, J
- 7:29found a horror book with an old sticker
- 7:30she herself had placed there as a child.
- 7:33Just then, Su Ho appeared. "Move! I need
- 7:36a book, too," he said. Startled, J tried
- 7:39to avoid him, but slipped, falling right
- 7:41into his arms. Su Ho studied her and
- 7:43smirked. "It seems you have a habit of
- 7:45falling into me." Ju froze. "Did he
- 7:48recognize me?" she wondered. Desperate,
- 7:50she pleaded, "Please don't tell anyone
- 7:51my secret." Zu Ho misunderstood,
- 7:54thinking she meant her suicide attempt,
- 7:56while Ju thought he had discovered her
- 7:57bare face beneath the makeup. The two
- 7:59sat together, talking more openly than
- 8:01before. Ju mentioned her favorite horror
- 8:04comic, and to her surprise, Su Ho
- 8:06revealed it was his favorite as well.
- 8:08"Do you have it?" he asked. When Ju
- 8:10nodded, he said, "Then bring it for me."
- 8:13He also mentioned that it was his
- 8:14birthday. J wished him and as a token
- 8:17gave him her childhood sticker, asking
- 8:19him again to keep her secret. Su Ho
- 8:22promised he would. The next day, Ju's
- 8:24sister, Jyn, dropped her at school. As
- 8:26Ju entered, she almost stumbled, but
- 8:28caught herself right in front of Su Ho,
- 8:29who stared at her coldly. Outside, Jyn
- 8:32noticed Ju's teacher, Mr. Moon, tenderly
- 8:34playing with a child, and something
- 8:36about him instantly caught her
- 8:37attention. That evening, Su Ho stuck J's
- 8:40sticker on his lamp at home. Meanwhile,
- 8:42J packed Su Ho's jacket and the horror
- 8:44comic into her bag. On the bus, all the
- 8:47boys called her a beautiful princess,
- 8:49admiring her perfect look. At school, J
- 8:51was walking with Lely and Kang Su when a
- 8:54boy roared in on a motorbike. Han J
- 8:56froze. It was the same boy she had met
- 8:58last night. Everyone cheered, whispering
- 9:01that Han, Su, and Jun had returned to
- 9:03school. Lei explained to J that Han and
- 9:06Su Ho were once close friends but now
- 9:08bitter rivals. In class, Han spotted J
- 9:11and immediately recognized her. At the
- 9:13same time, J was acting strangely
- 9:15towards Su Ho, making little gestures,
- 9:17convinced that he already knew her
- 9:18secret. Su Ho grew annoyed at her
- 9:20behavior. Later, while listening to
- 9:22music, he was startled when J leaned
- 9:24close and whispered, "Meet me on the
- 9:26roof." Su Ho followed, irritated. "Do
- 9:29you like me?" he asked bluntly. J
- 9:31quickly denied it. Then why are you
- 9:33acting like we've known each other for
- 9:34years? Stop bothering me. He grabbed his
- 9:37bag and left, leaving J relieved. If he
- 9:39said that, then he truly didn't
- 9:41recognize her. Excited, she ran after
- 9:43him and managed to take his bag under a
- 9:44pretext. That evening, Su Ho called her.
- 9:47"Bring my things back," he demanded.
- 9:50Surprised, J asked how he had her
- 9:52number. Su Ho simply replied, "It's easy
- 9:54for me to find out anything." He gave
- 9:56her his address and hung up. But J was
- 9:58confused. Did he want the comic book or
- 10:00the jacket? Did he call the girl with
- 10:02makeup or the one without it? To test,
- 10:04she applied makeup to only half her
- 10:06face, wore Hans's helmet, and went to
- 10:08meet him. When Zu Ho clarified he wanted
- 10:10the comic book, J realized he had
- 10:12contacted her bare-faced self.
- 10:14Nervously, she excused herself, removed
- 10:16her half makeup in the restroom, and
- 10:17returned. The next morning at school, J
- 10:20gave Su Ho his jacket. Meanwhile, Leel's
- 10:23boyfriend hosted a birthday party.
- 10:25Suddenly, someone smeared cake across
- 10:26Ju's face. Panicked, she wouldn't let
- 10:29anyone wipe it off. Terrified her makeup
- 10:31would come off with it, she tried to
- 10:33run, but the crowd surrounded her. Just
- 10:35as she was about to break down, Su Ho
- 10:37stepped in. He threw his jacket over her
- 10:39face and pulled her away to safety. Su
- 10:41Ho had covered Ju's face with his coat
- 10:43and led her away, leaving her at the
- 10:44restroom. Ju quickly washed her face and
- 10:46reapplied her makeup, and when she came
- 10:48out, she thanked him, only to realize it
- 10:50wasn't Su Ho at all, but Han. Han asked
- 10:52sharply, "Why haven't you returned my
- 10:54helmet?" Embarrassed, Ju stammered,
- 10:56"I<unk>ll definitely bring it back
- 10:58tomorrow." before running away. When she
- 11:00returned to class, her classmates
- 11:01surprised her by apologizing. One girl
- 11:03whispered, "I've never seen Su Ho help
- 11:05anyone before. You're the first person
- 11:07he's ever helped." Ju's heart raced,
- 11:09"Maybe he knows my secret. Maybe that's
- 11:11why he's helping me." Later, she sat
- 11:13with her brother, who also attended the
- 11:15same school. Excited, she began to tell
- 11:17him about Su Ho, but her brother cut in
- 11:19coldly. "Maybe he's just trying to get
- 11:21revenge on you. You told him such a big
- 11:23lie after all." Fear gripped Ju. When
- 11:26she saw Su Ho again in the hallway, she
- 11:28panicked and ran, hiding in her
- 11:30classroom. But Su Ho followed, calmly,
- 11:32handing her a notebook the teacher had
- 11:34asked him to deliver. That evening, Su
- 11:36Ho called her, asking to meet at the
- 11:38comic shop. When Ju arrived, she greeted
- 11:40him nervously. It's been a long time
- 11:42since we've seen each other, Su Ho
- 11:43frowned. I don't think so. We just met,
- 11:46but another girl like studies at my
- 11:48school. Could she be you? Ju's heart
- 11:50pounded. She forced a smile and said,
- 11:52"That's my twin sister." Su Ho narrowed
- 11:54his eyes. But her name is also Kim Ju.
- 11:57I'm sure it's you cornered. Ju
- 11:59confessed. Yes, it's me. So, what will
- 12:01you do now? Will you tell everyone what
- 12:03I look like without makeup? If you want
- 12:04to, go ahead. I'm not afraid of you.
- 12:06With trembling defiance, she turned and
- 12:08left. But at home, her bravado crumbled.
- 12:11Anxiety nod at her. What if Su Ho really
- 12:14did expose her secret? The next morning,
- 12:16she resolved to face him headon. Yet,
- 12:18when she saw him at school, her courage
- 12:20vanished. With folded hands, she pleaded
- 12:22softly. "Please don't tell anyone. I'll
- 12:24do whatever you ask me to." Su Ho<unk>'s
- 12:26lips curved into a faint smile. "Fine,
- 12:29from now on, you'll do whatever I say."
- 12:32And he wasted no time testing her
- 12:33promise. During class, he messaged her,
- 12:36"I'm thirsty. Bring me water." Without
- 12:39hesitation, J rushed to fetch it. Soon
- 12:40after, she was carrying Su Ho's
- 12:42belongings upstairs when she bumped into
- 12:44Han again. He asked once more about his
- 12:45helmet, and Ju reassured him. I'll
- 12:48definitely return it tomorrow. But later
- 12:50that night at home, she discovered her
- 12:52brother had sold the helmet. Furious,
- 12:54she hit him, demanding he fix it. Her
- 12:56brother, Jang, raised his hands
- 12:57defensively. I'll get it back within a
- 12:59week. Meanwhile, Jyn Ju's older sister
- 13:02waited outside school thinking about
- 13:03teacher Moon. When his car broke down
- 13:06nearby, she rushed to him under the
- 13:07pretext of helping. They talked at
- 13:09length, and by the end, Jyn had his
- 13:11phone number. The next morning, J handed
- 13:13Han a folded note. His friends teased
- 13:15him, thinking it was a love letter, but
- 13:17inside the message was blunt. I will
- 13:19return your helmet within a week cuz my
- 13:20brother sold it. Hans's face darkened
- 13:22with anger. Later that day, J received
- 13:24another message from Su Ho. He wanted a
- 13:26comic book delivered within 10 minutes.
- 13:28She ran to the shop, but the last copy
- 13:30had already been bought by a small boy.
- 13:32Desperate, she pleaded for it, but he
- 13:33refused. Thinking quickly, Ju started
- 13:36acting like a zombie to amuse him, and
- 13:37the boy laughed before handing over the
- 13:39book. From a distance, Su Ho watched,
- 13:41unable to hide a smile at her strange
- 13:43antics. At school the next day, Su Ho
- 13:46continued to order her around, not even
- 13:48allowing her time to eat properly.
- 13:49Meanwhile, Han visited his mother in the
- 13:51hospital. She scolded him gently, "You
- 13:54shouldn't ride a bike anymore." As Han
- 13:56left, he spotted Zu Ho<unk>s father on
- 13:58the road. His expression hardened with
- 14:00fury. He blamed this man for his
- 14:02friend's death. Elsewhere, J scrolled
- 14:04through New Graham, smiling at the many
- 14:06likes on her photo. Among them was one
- 14:08from Somi, her old bully. Just then, Su
- 14:11Ho sent another request for a comic. J
- 14:13hurried out, but rain began to pour. She
- 14:15slipped, colliding with a group of boys.
- 14:17They laughed cruy, calling her ugly when
- 14:19they glimpsed her smeared face. The
- 14:21words cut deep, reopening old wounds.
- 14:23When she finally reached Su Ho,
- 14:25drenched, limping, "Is he remarked
- 14:26coldly, you should have brought an
- 14:28umbrella." Determined, J answered,
- 14:30"Fine, I'll get one right now." But Su
- 14:33Ho stopped her. "That's not what I
- 14:34meant." Overwhelmed, J broke down, "Then
- 14:37what did you mean? You're just like
- 14:39everyone else. You torment me because
- 14:41I'm weak. You take advantage of it. You
- 14:43shouldn't treat people like this. You're
- 14:44a bad person. Her voice cracked. Tears
- 14:46rolled down her face. For the first
- 14:48time, Su Ho softened. I'm sorry, he
- 14:51whispered before noticing her injury. He
- 14:54rushed to get a bandage and gently
- 14:55wrapped her wound. From a distance, Han
- 14:57watched the scene, his jaw tight. The
- 14:59next day, he confronted Su Ho, his voice
- 15:01sharp with accusation. You took your
- 15:04friend's life, and now you live as if
- 15:05nothing happened. He shoved him hard
- 15:07before storming off. Moments later, he
- 15:10sat beside Ju in the cafeteria,
- 15:11declaring, "I'll eat here next to you."
- 15:13The sight of it ignited Zu Ho's temper,
- 15:15and soon fists were flying as the
- 15:17rivalry between the two boys exploded
- 15:19into a fight. Han and Su Ho's fists
- 15:21clashed in anger. Han landed a hard
- 15:24punch on Su Ho's face, and just as Su Ho
- 15:26raised his hand to strike back. The
- 15:28teacher stormed in, his voice thundering
- 15:30as he scolded them both for their
- 15:32reckless behavior. Su Ho walked silently
- 15:34toward his class, but Kang Su
- 15:36intercepted him. She pressed with
- 15:37curiosity. What happened between you and
- 15:40Han? Why were you fighting like that? Is
- 15:42all this because of Sean? Su Ho remained
- 15:45cold and distant, refusing to answer.
- 15:47Inside the classroom, whispers filled
- 15:49the air. Classmates turned to Ju,
- 15:51teasing. Han and Su Ho both like you.
- 15:53Who will you choose? J flustered, shook
- 15:56her head. You're all misunderstanding.
- 15:58It's not like that. Later, Su Ho
- 16:00confronted Han directly. What do you
- 16:02want? Hans reply was blunt. I just want
- 16:05you to stay away from me. That evening,
- 16:07Su Ho sat alone at the comic shop, his
- 16:10eyes clouded with sorrow. Memories from
- 16:12his childhood resurfaced, him sitting in
- 16:14that same place, lonely and sad, until a
- 16:17little girl had appeared, trying to
- 16:19cheer him up. That girl had been Jew,
- 16:21and now fate had brought her back to
- 16:23him. J walked in pretending casually. I
- 16:26was just passing by. She urged softly,
- 16:28"You and Han should make up." "And thank
- 16:32you. You've been protecting my secret,
- 16:34my face without makeup. You're my
- 16:36defender. Her gratitude lingered in the
- 16:38air as Su Ho watched her with conflicted
- 16:40eyes. Meanwhile, Jyn sat waiting outside
- 16:42the school, hoping to see teacher Moon,
- 16:44but today he did not appear. Back in
- 16:47class, the teacher called Kang Su Su Ho
- 16:49bored for math problems. Ju struggled
- 16:51with her own question and quietly asked
- 16:53Su Ho for help, but he ignored her,
- 16:55solving his problem and walking away.
- 16:57Embarrassed, Ju still couldn't solve it,
- 16:59and Han laughed out loud. The teacher,
- 17:01annoyed, turned to Han. If you find it
- 17:03so funny, then you solve it. Later, Leel
- 17:06and Kang Su encouraged Ju to join a math
- 17:08academy. They even invited Su Ho, but he
- 17:10refused and started to leave. As he
- 17:12walked away, Lely teasingly showed Ju a
- 17:15picture of a boy and asked her to go on
- 17:16a date with him. Ju agreed without
- 17:18hesitation. Standing nearby, Su Ho
- 17:20overheard everything, his jaw clenched
- 17:22with jealousy. That evening, J rode the
- 17:25bus home. To her surprise, Su Ho boarded
- 17:27the same bus. They chatted lightly until
- 17:30a message arrived on Ju's phone. It was
- 17:32from the boy she had agreed to meet. Su
- 17:33Ho<unk>s voice grew stern. You should
- 17:35focus on your studies, not waste time on
- 17:37dates. J defended herself softly. I just
- 17:40want to experience life, to know what it
- 17:42feels like to go on a date. She leaned
- 17:44closer, whispering, do blind dates
- 17:46happen during the day or at night? Su
- 17:48Ho's jealousy flared, but before he
- 17:50could answer, another boy sat between
- 17:52them, stealing Ju's attention.
- 17:54Frustrated, Su Ho stood and left the
- 17:56bus, anger boiling inside him. The next
- 17:58day, Ju's mom gave her a facial in
- 18:00preparation for her date. Suddenly, Han
- 18:02arrived with his mother, who happened to
- 18:03be Jews mom's best friend. Shocked, J
- 18:06panicked and quickly smeared the face
- 18:07pack on herself to hide her bare skin.
- 18:09But in her clumsy hurry, she slipped off
- 18:11the bed. Han saw her clearly and
- 18:13recognized her. Inside, the mothers
- 18:15chatted happily, proud their children
- 18:17went to the same school. Ju's mom
- 18:18praised Han, calling him handsome. Han,
- 18:21mischievous, said, "Joe is going on a
- 18:23date with a boy today." Ju's mom's smile
- 18:25disappeared as she scolded her daughter,
- 18:27but Ju snapped back. "Your son still
- 18:29rides his bike dangerously. He almost
- 18:32caused an accident with me once."
- 18:34Outside, Han confronted her. "From now
- 18:36on, don't tell my mom anything about
- 18:37me." J smirked. "Fine, I won't. I'm
- 18:40perfect at keeping secrets." That
- 18:42evening, J dressed up and met her date.
- 18:45They watched a movie together, unaware
- 18:46that Su Ho was secretly following,
- 18:48watching every moment. After the film,
- 18:51the boy asked Ju to meet again, but as
- 18:53soon as she left, he called his real
- 18:55girlfriend. From the shadows, Zu Ho
- 18:57stood watching, fury burning in his
- 18:59chest. Later at home, J received a
- 19:01message from the boy. Sorry, I lied. I
- 19:04already have a girlfriend. Her heart
- 19:06sank. Her sister tried to comfort her.
- 19:09He rejected you, but don't worry. It's
- 19:11hard to find a good person on a blind
- 19:13date. But the truth was darker. Su Ho
- 19:15had taken the boy's phone, sent the
- 19:17cruel message, and even beaten him up.
- 19:20At school the next day, Juice snapped a
- 19:21picture of Hans's bike and teased, "You
- 19:23should listen to your mom." Hans
- 19:25smirked, pulling out his phone and
- 19:26showing her a secret picture he had
- 19:28taken of her with the face pack. "Delete
- 19:30my picture now or I'll show yours to the
- 19:32whole school." Their standoff was
- 19:34interrupted by Su Ho, who glared at J.
- 19:36"Don't waste your time on useless
- 19:38things. Concentrate on your studies."
- 19:41But it was already too late. Han
- 19:43revealed Ju's picture to the entire
- 19:45class, and laughter erupted around her.
- 19:47Humiliated, J plotted revenge. She
- 19:50slipped Han's bike keys from his pocket
- 19:52and dashed away. Han chased after her
- 19:54furiously, and just as the tension rose,
- 19:56Su Ho appeared. The two boys locked
- 19:58eyes, rage simmering between them.
- 20:00Afraid another fight would erupt, Ju
- 20:02shouted, "Stop it! Don't fight again.
- 20:04You go your way, you go yours, and I'll
- 20:06go mine." Later, Ju and her friends
- 20:08gathered for a group study session. To
- 20:10everyone's surprise, Su Ho was already
- 20:13there. Kang Su raised her brows. Didn't
- 20:15you refuse to study with us? Su Ho
- 20:17answered coolly. When did I ever say
- 20:19that? After studying, they all headed to
- 20:21a karaoke bar, singing and laughing
- 20:23together. Outside, Ju spotted Hans's
- 20:25bike. Annoyed, she began kicking it
- 20:27until Han arrived. "What are you doing?"
- 20:29he demanded. Just then, J noticed Su Ho
- 20:32nearby, shopping at a store. Panicked,
- 20:34she grabbed Han's arm and pulled him
- 20:36away before the boys could clash again.
- 20:38But Su Ho had already seen. That night,
- 20:40Hans enemies appeared, forcing him and J
- 20:42to run. The gang chased them through the
- 20:45streets. Su Ho, seeing the danger, ran
- 20:47after them. While J and Han managed to
- 20:49hide, Zu Ho found himself surrounded.
- 20:51Mistaken for Han's ally, he was
- 20:53cornered. But with swift, powerful
- 20:54blows, he fought them off. Eventually,
- 20:56Han escorted Ju home since she had no
- 20:58money. But waiting outside her house was
- 21:00Su Ho. His face twisted with anger. Why
- 21:03did you bring her home? He demanded. Han
- 21:06fired back. First, why are you here
- 21:07outside her house? The two of them
- 21:09clashed again until Jyn appeared,
- 21:11stumbling and drunk. Both boys rushed to
- 21:13help her. And in the chaos, Jyn vomited
- 21:15all over Su Ho<unk>s clothes. J hurried
- 21:17to him. Don't worry, I'll wash your
- 21:20clothes and return them nicely. Han
- 21:22looked straight at Su Ho, his tone
- 21:23sharp. Do you like J? Su Ho shot back.
- 21:26You tell me. Why are you always hovering
- 21:28around her? Do you like her? Han
- 21:30smirked. I can at least try. The next
- 21:33morning at school, Han approached J with
- 21:35surprising sincerity. Handing her his
- 21:37bike keys, he said, I'll listen to you
- 21:39from now on. I'll do whatever you say.
- 21:42Standing nearby, Su Ho's eyes darkened
- 21:44as he watched. When J started to follow
- 21:46Han, Su Ho seized her hand firmly. Don't
- 21:48go after him. J asked him if there was
- 21:50something he wanted to say, but Suho
- 21:52quickly changed the topic. In class, J
- 21:54tried to return Han's keys, but he
- 21:56refused. Instead, he told her that from
- 21:58now on, he would listen to everything
- 21:59she said and wouldn't ride his bike
- 22:01anymore. He even gave her a bottle of
- 22:03lemon juice before sitting down. J
- 22:05replied that she only liked strawberry
- 22:06juice and never drank lemon. Su Ho,
- 22:09watching all this unfold, grew angrier
- 22:11at Han's actions. The other students now
- 22:13began whispering that J and Han must
- 22:15definitely like each other. Later in the
- 22:17chemistry lab, Su Ho pulled Ju to sit
- 22:19beside him and quietly handed her a
- 22:21strawberry juice. Ju's heart fluttered
- 22:23as she thought, "Maybe he's starting to
- 22:25like me." During lunch, Han once again
- 22:26sat down next to Ju, irritating her,
- 22:28while some girls secretly snapped
- 22:30pictures of them together. Elsewhere in
- 22:32school, a girl named Ju Hei, who looked
- 22:34strikingly similar to J, was being
- 22:36bullied. The girls told her not to join
- 22:38the singing competition because she
- 22:39wasn't pretty enough. Ju stood nearby
- 22:41silently watching. Later on the bus with
- 22:44Kang Su, J grew nervous when Seomi
- 22:46suddenly appeared. Seomi recognized her
- 22:48from social media, calling her
- 22:50beautiful, but Kang Su quickly pulled J
- 22:52away and got off the bus. That evening,
- 22:54Su Ho called J outside to return his
- 22:56jacket. Ju explained it wasn't dry yet,
- 22:58but she would bring it later. As she was
- 23:00about to leave, Su Ho asked her to play
- 23:01basketball with him. While playing, Ju
- 23:03slipped and Su Ho caught her. As she
- 23:05tried to move away, Su Ho suddenly
- 23:07pulled her into a hug. Shocked, J asked
- 23:10why he did that. Flustered, Su Ho
- 23:12quickly made an excuse, saying he just
- 23:13wanted her to smell his new perfume. The
- 23:16next day, J found those same girls
- 23:18bullying Juhi again. She stepped in,
- 23:20threw water at them, and warned them to
- 23:22leave Jui alone, declaring, "That girl
- 23:24is my sister." Juhi later thanked Ja,
- 23:27but confessed she no longer wanted to
- 23:29perform on stage because she feared
- 23:30everyone would mock her face. J
- 23:33encouraged her to go on, promising to
- 23:34help. Determined, J sat at a bus stop
- 23:37watching makeup tutorials so she could
- 23:39prepare Juhi for her performance. Just
- 23:41then, Su Ho appeared. As she explained
- 23:43Juhi's situation, J admitted she
- 23:45sometimes felt even uglier than her
- 23:47without makeup. Su Ho told her that
- 23:49wasn't true, that she was beautiful in
- 23:51real life, even without makeup. On the
- 23:53bus later, J couldn't stop thinking
- 23:54about his words. Does he actually like
- 23:57me? She texted him asking if they could
- 23:59watch a movie together tomorrow. Su Ho's
- 24:01heart lit up and he happily said yes.
- 24:04Reading his reply, Ju was overjoyed.
- 24:06Meanwhile, Su Ho went to return Han's
- 24:07key, which he had taken from Ju. He told
- 24:09Han not to involve Ju in their fight,
- 24:11admitting that he liked her. Hans
- 24:13smirked, asking if he was afraid of
- 24:14losing her. Su Ho confronted him,
- 24:16demanding to know how long he would
- 24:18blame him for Sean's death. Han coldly
- 24:20replied, "Until you die. Sean's death is
- 24:22on you, and if J finds out, she'll think
- 24:24you're a criminal." Elsewhere, Jyn had
- 24:26invited teacher Moon to dinner. To his
- 24:28shock, she confessed her love to him. At
- 24:30school, J did Jui's makeup for the
- 24:32competition. When Juhi stepped on stage,
- 24:34everyone was stunned by her beauty and
- 24:36voice. Even Ju's brother seemed
- 24:38captivated, perhaps already starting to
- 24:40like her. Afterward, Ju learned that Jui
- 24:42was actually Han's sister. Later, J
- 24:44asked Su Ho when they would watch the
- 24:46movie. But instead of keeping their
- 24:48plan, Su Ho coldly told her that she had
- 24:50misunderstood. He had only been nice
- 24:52because he felt sorry for her. Ju's
- 24:54heart broke. Through tears, she told him
- 24:56to stop pitying her and walked away,
- 24:58unaware that Han was secretly listening
- 25:00nearby. A basketball match was held
- 25:02between Su Ho's team and Han's team. Su
- 25:05Ho's side won. Afterwards, Suo told Han
- 25:07that he was right. Everything was his
- 25:09fault, but warned him not to involve J
- 25:11again. If he did, Su Ho would no longer
- 25:13hold back. Later that night, J and her
- 25:15friends attended a live music
- 25:17performance. On stage, a group performed
- 25:19a song written by Sion, the boy who had
- 25:21committed suicide a year earlier. The
- 25:23crowd murmured about his tragic story.
- 25:25Kangu explained that Sean had been Han
- 25:28and Su Ho's best friend. But ever since
- 25:30his death, Han had hated Su Ho. Hearing
- 25:32the song, Su Ho's chest tightened as
- 25:34memories of that day flooded back. He
- 25:36remembered how Sean had called him just
- 25:38before jumping, but he hadn't picked up.
- 25:40The guilt overwhelmed him, and his
- 25:41health began to falter. J rushed to his
- 25:44side, asking what was wrong, but Su Ho
- 25:46walked away silently. Back home, J
- 25:48noticed a familiar tag on Su Ho's
- 25:50jacket, the same one worn by the boy who
- 25:52had once saved her life. Realization
- 25:54struck. Su Ho had been the one to rescue
- 25:56her that day. She ran outside to find
- 25:58him, but couldn't. Finally, she climbed
- 26:00to the rooftop of the same building
- 26:01where she once considered ending her
- 26:03life. There she found Su Ho sitting
- 26:06alone, crying. With trembling words, he
- 26:08confessed Sean ended his life by jumping
- 26:10from here. She hugged him tightly,
- 26:12whispering that she knew everything
- 26:13about Sean now. The two of them sat
- 26:15together talking for a long time. Just
- 26:18then, people rushed onto the terrace,
- 26:19shouting about a fire in the building,
- 26:21and Su Ho and J quickly escaped
- 26:23together. Later, Su Ho's father came to
- 26:25visit. He told his son that he had been
- 26:27invited to school for a parent teacher
- 26:29meeting, but Su Ho begged him not to go,
- 26:31saying he didn't want anyone to know
- 26:32they were related. When Ju arrived at
- 26:34school the next morning, she crossed
- 26:36paths with Su Ho and immediately turned
- 26:38away. At that moment, Han appeared and
- 26:40blocked her way, asking where she was
- 26:42going. Ju snapped at him to stop
- 26:44bothering her and walked off. In class,
- 26:46the teacher began handing out report
- 26:48cards. Ju's grades were very poor and
- 26:50she grew anxious. Her worries deepened
- 26:52when her mother suddenly arrived at
- 26:54school. The teacher showed her mother
- 26:56the report card and Ju's mom grew
- 26:58furious. She pulled a handheld fan from
- 27:00her bag and when she switched it on, the
- 27:02strong wind blew the teacher's hair
- 27:03back, revealing his light-coled
- 27:05eyebrows. Spotting them, Ju's mother
- 27:07handed him a card for her beauty parlor,
- 27:09insisting he come by. Despite Su Ho's
- 27:12warnings, his father showed up at school
- 27:13anyway, shocking everyone. The most
- 27:16excited was Ju's mom, who rushed over to
- 27:18get his autograph while Ju cringed in
- 27:19embarrassment. Then Su Ho's father
- 27:21himself revealed that Su Ho was his son,
- 27:24leaving everyone stunned. But Su Ho,
- 27:26humiliated and furious, stormed off. On
- 27:29his way out, Han crossed paths with Su
- 27:32Ho's father, glaring at him with cold
- 27:34anger. Soon after, Su Ho confronted his
- 27:37father, telling him he shouldn't have
- 27:38come. But Ju's mom appeared again,
- 27:40chattering away and making the situation
- 27:42even more embarrassing for Su Ho. The
- 27:44conversation turned to Sean. Han accused
- 27:47Su Ho's father of ruining him, reminding
- 27:49him that Sean's father had once been
- 27:51part of his company, but was thrown out
- 27:54because of rumors. Suho's father
- 27:55admitted he had expelled Seance's father
- 27:57to protect his company's reputation. At
- 28:00home, J's mom tried to throw away all of
- 28:02J's makeup, but J begged her not to and
- 28:04promised to improve her grades. Across
- 28:07town, Kang Su was also being scolded by
- 28:09her father for her poor results. Back at
- 28:11school, Ju and Su Ho sat together in the
- 28:14chemistry lab, both focused on studying,
- 28:16yet neither speaking to the other.
- 28:18Meanwhile, at Han's house, he was
- 28:19dancing in shorts decorated with tigers
- 28:21when he suddenly noticed J sitting
- 28:23nearby doing her sister's makeup.
- 28:25Mortified, he tried to slip away
- 28:27quietly, but J teased him, saying she
- 28:29hadn't seen his shorts. Embarrassed, Han
- 28:31ran to his room. Later, Joked about the
- 28:33shorts again, teasing him before
- 28:35leaving. When J returned home, she was
- 28:37shocked to see Su Ho already there. Her
- 28:40mother proudly told her she had invited
- 28:42him for dinner, treating him like
- 28:43family. J scolded her mother for doing
- 28:45so, but they all sat down to eat
- 28:47together. Suddenly, Jyn staggered and
- 28:49drunk, stepped on a wire, and caused a
- 28:51blackout. When J turned on her phone's
- 28:53flashlight, she found Su Ho on the floor
- 28:55with everyone piled on top of him while
- 28:57her sister was devouring food like
- 28:59crazy. Embarrassed, J later walked Su Ho
- 29:02outside, apologized, and asked him to go
- 29:04home. At a show later on, J ran into
- 29:06Seomi, who recognized her without makeup
- 29:08and began insulting her. J ignored her
- 29:11and tried to leave quickly, but
- 29:12accidentally dropped her wallet, which
- 29:14contained her school ID. Siomi picked it
- 29:17up and was about to open it when Su Ho
- 29:19appeared, snatching it away and
- 29:21returning it to J. Grateful but
- 29:23conflicted, J told him he didn't need to
- 29:25keep helping her out of pity. Su Ho
- 29:27tried to explain, but when Han showed
- 29:29up, he quickly hid J under his cape and
- 29:31told her to go home. That same evening,
- 29:33Han encountered the boys who usually
- 29:35bullied him. But this time, instead of
- 29:37fighting, they only talked. One of them
- 29:39turned out to be Seo Mi's boyfriend.
- 29:41Elsewhere, Teacher Moon arrived at Ju's
- 29:43mom's beauty parlor, but when Jyn
- 29:45unexpectedly showed up, he panicked and
- 29:47ran off. Jyn chased after him in the
- 29:49rain, clutching her umbrella.
- 29:53At school, Han looked at Ju's photo on
- 29:56his phone. When J came by and teased
- 29:58him, he couldn't take his eyes off her.
- 30:00Maybe without realizing it, he was
- 30:02beginning to fall for her. Meanwhile,
- 30:04Seomi's boyfriend found the photo of Han
- 30:06and J online and assumed J was Han's
- 30:09girlfriend. Later, Han visited the
- 30:11hospital to pay his mother's bill, only
- 30:12to learn Su Ho had already taken care of
- 30:14it. That night, as J was walking home,
- 30:17Siomi's boyfriend and his group appeared
- 30:19and kidnapped her. At the same time, Han
- 30:21thanked Su Ho for paying his mom's bill
- 30:24and told him he didn't need to interfere
- 30:25anymore. Just then, Han's phone rang.
- 30:28Seiom's boyfriend sneered, telling him
- 30:30he had kidnapped his girlfriend.
- 30:32Furious, Han and Su Ho rushed together
- 30:34to rescue her. The boys had taken J to a
- 30:36karaoke place. Thinking quickly, she
- 30:38snapped a picture of the location and
- 30:40sent it to her friends, who immediately
- 30:42began worrying and set out to find her.
- 30:44When Su Ho and Han arrived, a brutal
- 30:46fight erupted. Su Ho fought fiercely,
- 30:48taking down the boys one after another.
- 30:50Then, Kang Su and Lei also burst in to
- 30:53help. The next morning at the school,
- 30:54the teacher was punishing Han's friends,
- 30:56convinced they were the ones who had
- 30:58caused the fight at the karaoke place
- 30:59the night before. But Han stepped
- 31:01forward, admitting it was his fault, not
- 31:03theirs. Moments later, J and her friends
- 31:05also arrived, bravely, telling the
- 31:07teacher they too had been involved. One
- 31:09by one, they all began writing apology
- 31:11notes. Kang Su turned to Han and told
- 31:13him bluntly, "You should apologize to
- 31:15Ju. Everything happened because of you.
- 31:18Those boys thought she was your
- 31:19girlfriend, and that's why they
- 31:20kidnapped her." Later, Han stood in the
- 31:23restroom with Su Ho. He said quietly,
- 31:25"It doesn't matter what kind of
- 31:27relationship we have, but my mom's issue
- 31:29is different. I am thankful to you for
- 31:31helping me, but from now on, you don't
- 31:33need to worry about me." Su Ho didn't
- 31:35reply. Exhausted, he simply leaned his
- 31:37head against Hans's shoulder, too tired
- 31:39to say a word. On his way home, Su Ho
- 31:42was stopped by Ju. She asked him shyly,
- 31:44"Can you come to the comic shop with
- 31:46me?" But Zu Ho shook his head and told
- 31:48her firmly, "You should just focus on
- 31:50your studies." Then after a pause, he
- 31:53added, "Meet me at the study cafe
- 31:55tonight. We<unk>ll study together
- 31:56there." Hearing this, Ju's heart filled
- 31:59with joy. At home, Ju couldn't stop
- 32:01smiling, lost in her thoughts of Su Ho.
- 32:04She imagined him standing beside her
- 32:05until her mother's voice cut through her
- 32:07daydream, scolding her to focus on her
- 32:09studies. That evening, J arrived at the
- 32:12study cafe where Su Ho was already
- 32:14waiting, asleep at the table. She sat
- 32:16down beside him and whispered to
- 32:17herself, "You look so handsome even when
- 32:20you're sleeping." Just then, Su Ho's
- 32:22eyes opened. For a brief moment, their
- 32:24gazes locked, unspoken feelings hanging
- 32:26in the air. But the moment ended when
- 32:28Ju's friends arrived. Su Ho straightened
- 32:31up and scolded her. "Did you come here
- 32:33to study or to sleep?" They studied
- 32:35together, but soon everyone began
- 32:36leaving. As Ju and Kang Su were heading
- 32:38out, Seo Mi's boyfriend appeared. He had
- 32:41come to apologize, but Ju panicked and
- 32:43sprayed pepper spray in his face. In
- 32:45truth, he only came because Su Ho had
- 32:47been threatening him for days, following
- 32:49him everywhere, making sure he wouldn't
- 32:50dare trouble Ju again. Soon after, Ju
- 32:53faced another exam. This time, she
- 32:55believed it had gone better. To relax
- 32:57afterward, she went with Lee Lee to
- 32:59watch her favorite baseball player, Ju
- 33:01Hyong. Lei<unk>s boyfriend and Su Ho
- 33:04also came. After the game, as they were
- 33:06leaving, Ju Hyong noticed Ju captivated
- 33:08instantly. He walked up to her and asked
- 33:10for her number. From afar, Su Ho
- 33:12watched, his face darkening with
- 33:14jealousy. When Ju Hong left, Su Ho
- 33:16scolded her. "You shouldn't give your
- 33:18number to just anyone and stormed away."
- 33:20Elsewhere, Ju<unk>s brother approached
- 33:22Jui as she was singing in her classroom.
- 33:24"Your voice and your face are both very
- 33:26beautiful," he told her. But Jui
- 33:28dismissed him as crazy and walked out.
- 33:31At baseball practice, Lei's boyfriend
- 33:33confronted Su Ho. "I know you like Ju,"
- 33:35he said plainly. "That day, when Ju
- 33:37Hyong asked for her number, you looked
- 33:39so jealous. Let me give you some advice.
- 33:42I know how to impress girls. Meanwhile,
- 33:44Ju Hung invited J out on a date. They
- 33:46talked for a long time and he shared
- 33:47stories about his life. Not long after,
- 33:50Ju exam results came out. Once again,
- 33:52her rank was low. Kang Su results were
- 33:55also poor and in frustration, she left
- 33:57class abruptly. Su Ho followed, asking
- 34:00her what was wrong, but she stayed
- 34:02silent. What no one knew was that Kangu
- 34:04had been his childhood friend, which is
- 34:06why Su Ho cared so much about her. Back
- 34:09at school, Ju Hyong made a dramatic
- 34:11entrance that left all the girls
- 34:12stunned. But he only came to see Ju. He
- 34:15walked straight into her classroom,
- 34:17handed her a baseball, and left, leaving
- 34:19the entire class in shock. From afar, Su
- 34:22Ho saw it all. At that very moment,
- 34:24another girl approached him, confessing
- 34:25she had liked him for a long time. J
- 34:28stood at a distance, her heart aching as
- 34:30she overheard, but Su Ho rejected the
- 34:32confession, telling the girl that he
- 34:34already liked someone else. At home that
- 34:36night, J discovered that her mother had
- 34:38thrown all her makeup away again,
- 34:39furious at her poor grades. From now on,
- 34:42you will not wear makeup, her mother
- 34:44ordered. Bursting into tears, J cried,
- 34:47"You don't know how much I've had to
- 34:48endure because of this ugly face."
- 34:50Outside, Su Ho was waiting. He found her
- 34:53crying and gently took her to the comic
- 34:54shop. There, she poured her heart out,
- 34:57telling him everything her mother had
- 34:58done. Su Ho looked at her and said
- 35:00softly, "This time, your grades are
- 35:02better than before. I know you tried
- 35:05your best. I'm proud of you. J frowned,
- 35:08asking, "Why do I feel like you're
- 35:10making fun of me?" On the way home, a
- 35:12bug landed on Ju's leg. Su Ho tried to
- 35:15brush it away and told her to sit down,
- 35:17but instead Ju climbed onto his
- 35:19shoulders. Flustered, he muttered, "I
- 35:21didn't ask you to sit on me. I asked you
- 35:23to sit on the chair in front of you
- 35:24embarrassed." J quickly got off and
- 35:27started walking away, but Su Ho stopped
- 35:29her, tucked a hair pin into her hair,
- 35:31and quietly said goodbye. The next day
- 35:34at school, Su Ho waited for J outside
- 35:35her classroom. But before she arrived,
- 35:37Kang Su appeared. Seeing him, she turned
- 35:40to leave, but Zu Ho followed. He asked
- 35:42her why she looked so upset. With tears
- 35:44in her eyes, Kangu confessed, "Why does
- 35:46my dad always compare me to you? He
- 35:49beats me whenever my grades are low.
- 35:51Overcome, she broke down, crying, and Su
- 35:53Ho hugged her." At that moment, Ju
- 35:56walked in and saw them together. In
- 35:58class, Su Ho asked Ju to sit next to
- 35:59him, but she ignored him and sat
- 36:01elsewhere. In her mind, she thought
- 36:03bitterly that Su Ho must like Kangu, not
- 36:05her. At home, J sulked in her room. She
- 36:08tore at her doll, muttering, "If he
- 36:10likes someone else, he should have told
- 36:11me." "And why did he give me that hair
- 36:13pin? He's a complete idiot." Later, J
- 36:16went to the mall with Han to buy a
- 36:17birthday gift for Juhi. While shopping,
- 36:20she got a call from Su Ho asking where
- 36:22she was. When she told him she was at
- 36:24the mall with Han, he grew furious. At
- 36:26the store, Ju tried lipstick shades on
- 36:28Han, making him uncomfortable. Suddenly,
- 36:30Suho appeared and tried to pull J away.
- 36:33Han stopped him, demanding, "Where are
- 36:35you taking her?" The three of them ended
- 36:37up together in the elevator until J,
- 36:39desperate to use the restroom, bolted as
- 36:41soon as the doors opened. Outside the
- 36:43mall, she ran into Ju Hung again. They
- 36:45sat together talking and J admitted to
- 36:48him that she liked someone else.
- 36:50Meanwhile, Su Ho went to watch Ju
- 36:52Hyong<unk>s final match, hoping J would
- 36:54be there. Han showed up, too, and the
- 36:55two sat together watching the game side
- 36:57by side. Ju watching the broadcast on TV
- 37:00was stunned to see them. After the game,
- 37:02Suo asked Han, "Why did you come here
- 37:04today?" Han replied coldly, "I came for
- 37:07Ju." "I heard she would be here." Rage
- 37:10flickered in Su Ho<unk>s eyes as the two
- 37:12of them stared each other down, the
- 37:13tension between them sharper than ever.
- 37:15Zu Ho stood in a jewelry store,
- 37:17carefully choosing a necklace. His heart
- 37:19raced with the decision he had made. He
- 37:21was finally going to confess his
- 37:22feelings to Ju. Meanwhile, J was packing
- 37:25for the upcoming school trip. Her
- 37:27brother teased her, asking, "How are
- 37:29things between you and Su Ho? Did he
- 37:31finally tell you that he likes you?" Ju
- 37:33quickly brushed it off, insisting, "It's
- 37:35nothing like that. We're just good
- 37:36friends." The trip began with laughter
- 37:38and chatter as everyone boarded the bus.
- 37:40But tension brewed when Lee Lee noticed
- 37:43J and Han wearing the same t-shirt,
- 37:45loudly declaring them a couple. Su Ho,
- 37:48standing nearby, clenched his fists,
- 37:50jealousy flashing in his eyes. On the
- 37:52bus, he asked J to sit beside him. But
- 37:54before she could, Kang Su slipped into
- 37:56the seat. Left with no choice, Ju sat
- 37:58next to Han and Su Ho could only watch
- 38:00in frustration. Even after they reached
- 38:03their destination, whenever Su Ho tried
- 38:04to speak to her, Ju turned away. Later
- 38:07in the tent, Ju overheard her friends
- 38:08talking. She discovered that Kang Su had
- 38:11known Su Ho since childhood and had
- 38:13secretly liked him all along. Lei
- 38:15encouraged Kang Su to confess her
- 38:17feelings. Hearing this, Ju<unk>s heart
- 38:19sank and she struggled to hide her
- 38:20disappointment. During a game, J was
- 38:23placed on Han's team while Kang Su
- 38:25joined Su Ho's. At one point, Han lifted
- 38:27Ju in the air. Su Ho's jealousy boiled
- 38:29over and he stormed forward, ready to
- 38:32stop them, but Leel's boyfriend held him
- 38:34back. In the end, Su Ho's team won, and
- 38:36Kang Su, recalling Leel's words, began
- 38:39to wonder if her feelings for Su Ho had
- 38:41always been deeper than she admitted.
- 38:43Elsewhere, J's sister was working at an
- 38:45entertainment company secretly owned by
- 38:47Su Ho's father. Jyn planned to
- 38:49re-release Sean's album and needed the
- 38:51singer Leo to make it possible.
- 38:53Mistakenly, she believed Han was Leo,
- 38:55but Han refused, convinced that
- 38:57Sean<unk>s death was tied to Su Ho<unk>s
- 38:59father. That night, Su Ho pulled Ju
- 39:01aside and led her into the quiet woods.
- 39:03"Why do I feel like you're avoiding me?"
- 39:05he asked. J shook her head quickly.
- 39:07"That's not true." By chance, they found
- 39:09a boat and climbed in together. J took
- 39:12playful selfies, teasing him until, to
- 39:14her surprise, Su Ho leaned in and joined
- 39:16her. But the light moment ended when a
- 39:18bug landed on her face. And in her
- 39:20panic, she toppled into the water. On
- 39:22the other side of the forest, Han
- 39:23wandered with his friends. When J
- 39:25emerged from the water, her makeup had
- 39:27washed away completely. Embarrassed, she
- 39:30tried to cover her face, but Su Ho
- 39:32offered, "I'll get your bag." Ju
- 39:34refused, insisting she could manage.
- 39:36Just then, Kangu appeared. J ducked
- 39:38behind Su Ho, hiding, while Kang Su
- 39:41asked, "Why are your clothes wet?" Su Ho
- 39:43replied calmly, "I slipped." Without
- 39:45another word, he left with her, keeping
- 39:47Ju's secret safe. Soon after, Han's
- 39:49friends spotted Ju's pale, makeup-free
- 39:51face and screamed, convinced she was a
- 39:53ghost. Han rushed over and fainted the
- 39:55moment he saw her. The next morning, on
- 39:57the bus ride back, J dozed off with a
- 40:00fever. Han gently gave her medicine,
- 40:02then placed a flower bracelet on her
- 40:04wrist. When Su Ho arrived moments later,
- 40:06Han quickly shifted Ju's head onto his
- 40:08own shoulder. Rage flared between the
- 40:10two boys, and they clashed. Su Ho
- 40:12shouted, "I've liked Ju for a long
- 40:14time." Han fired back, "I don't care.
- 40:17I'll keep confessing my feelings to her
- 40:18no matter what." That night, everyone
- 40:20gathered for music and laughter. When
- 40:22Han's friends asked him to sing, he
- 40:24performed a love song, his eyes on Ju.
- 40:27But Ju, despite his voice, only looked
- 40:29at Su Ho from afar. Kangu slid into the
- 40:32seat next to him, and Ju, unable to
- 40:34watch, slipped away. Leel<unk>s
- 40:36boyfriend found her and handed her Su
- 40:37Ho<unk>s jacket. Give this to him," he
- 40:40said, pointing her toward where Zu Ho
- 40:41was, but when Ju finally went, she
- 40:43discovered Kang Su there instead. Kang
- 40:46Su had taken the jacket. Alone, Ju broke
- 40:48down in tears. Han found her, and she
- 40:50confessed, "I like Su Ho, but he likes
- 40:53Kang Su." Hans heart shattered, yet he
- 40:56wiped her tears tenderly. From a
- 40:58distance, Su Ho stood watching, his
- 41:00chest tightening. When he finally
- 41:01approached, he asked, "Why were you
- 41:03crying? Was it because of Han? Do you
- 41:05like him?" Ju snapped back, "Why do you
- 41:07care? You like Kang Su, don't you? Zu Ho
- 41:10opened his mouth to explain, but before
- 41:11he could, their classmates appeared,
- 41:13forcing Ju to cover her bare face and
- 41:15flee. The others chased after her,
- 41:18shouting about a ghost. But Zu Ho
- 41:20slipped away and caught her first,
- 41:22pulling her into hiding. He looked at
- 41:23her trembling face and without
- 41:26hesitation kissed her. "I like you," he
- 41:29whispered. Ju<unk>s eyes widened in
- 41:31disbelief. "You're lying. This must be a
- 41:34joke." He took out the necklace he had
- 41:35bought and gently clasped it around her
- 41:37neck. "I genuinely like you," he said.
- 41:40At last, Ju's defenses crumbled. "I like
- 41:43you very much, too," she admitted softly
- 41:45before turning away shily, her cheeks
- 41:47burning. Zu Ho finally confessed his
- 41:50feelings to Ju, and to his relief, Ju
- 41:52admitted she liked him just as much. Shy
- 41:54and overwhelmed, she quickly walked
- 41:56away, her heart fluttering as she
- 41:58wondered if it was all just a dream. But
- 41:59as she walked, she saw Kong Su
- 42:02approaching. Panic filled her. She
- 42:04wasn't wearing makeup. Covering her
- 42:06face, Ju broke down and revealed
- 42:08everything to Kang Su, confessing how
- 42:10she had been bullied in her old school
- 42:12for her looks and how makeup became her
- 42:13shield. Kang Su listened quietly and
- 42:16embraced her, covering Ju's face with
- 42:18her own hands before guiding her back to
- 42:19the tent. The next morning, Suo walked
- 42:22into school with a rare smile on his
- 42:23face. The entire class froze, shocked to
- 42:26see him so cheerful. During class, he
- 42:28offered Ju a strawberry juice, but to
- 42:30his surprise, she snapped at him and
- 42:32stormed out. Across the hall, Han sat in
- 42:34silence, too heartbroken to even attend
- 42:36his class, still reeling from the fact
- 42:38that J had chosen Su Ho. At lunch, Su Ho
- 42:41approached Ju again, but she immediately
- 42:43stood up and left. Leel's boyfriend
- 42:45leaned over and whispered, "I think J is
- 42:48avoiding you. Maybe she rejected you."
- 42:51Later, outside the school, Su Ho stopped
- 42:53J. "Why are you ignoring me?" he
- 42:55demanded. J lowered her eyes. "I just
- 42:58don't want anyone to know about us." One
- 43:00evening, the two went to a restaurant
- 43:02together. Su Ho lovingly fed J, but
- 43:04their moment was interrupted when her
- 43:06classmates arrived. Su Ho quickly ducked
- 43:08under the table unseen, but the
- 43:10classmates left whispering, now certain
- 43:12that J had a boyfriend. The following
- 43:15morning, J waited sleepily at the bus
- 43:17stop. Han appeared and she leaned on his
- 43:19shoulder, asking softly, "Why don't you
- 43:21ride your bike anymore?" "Did you stop
- 43:23because of me?" Han shook his head. "No,
- 43:26I stopped because of my mom." Back in
- 43:28class, rumors spread quickly. Everyone
- 43:31questioned J about her mysterious
- 43:32boyfriend. Flustered, she denied
- 43:34everything. Later, she visited a comic
- 43:36shop with Su Ho where she asked, "Why do
- 43:38you even like me? I'm not pretty, and my
- 43:40grades are awful." Su Ho looked at her
- 43:42gently. "None of that matters. I like
- 43:45you just the way you are." The next day,
- 43:47Kangu noticed Ju wearing the necklace Su
- 43:49Ho had given her. Recognition flashed
- 43:51across her face. She had once returned
- 43:53that same necklace to Su Ho after he
- 43:55lost it during the trip. Realizing what
- 43:57it meant, her heart sank. Meanwhile, J
- 43:59began searching for a part-time job to
- 44:01save money for Makeup Academy. At a
- 44:03studio, she unexpectedly ran into Han,
- 44:06who was modeling for a photo shoot. When
- 44:08the photographer asked J to pose with
- 44:09him, she refused at first, but agreed
- 44:11after being offered payment. During the
- 44:13shoot, Han leaned close, their chemistry
- 44:16undeniable, and the moment left Ju
- 44:18shaken. That evening, Su Ho had dinner
- 44:20with Kang Su's family. When her father
- 44:23scolded her harshly about her grades, Su
- 44:25Ho quickly made up an excuse and led her
- 44:27away, sparing her humiliation.
- 44:30Elsewhere, Ju and Han shared dinner
- 44:31together. She admitted her struggle to
- 44:33find work and revealed that she and Su
- 44:35Ho were officially together. Han forced
- 44:37a smile, but encouraged her. Then, tell
- 44:40everyone about it. Don't keep it hidden.
- 44:42His words made Ju uneasy, realizing she
- 44:45might be hurting Han by keeping her
- 44:46relationship a secret. That night, Su Ho
- 44:49crossed paths with Ju's father, who had
- 44:50stormed out after a fight with his wife.
- 44:52Su Ho invited him home, and the two
- 44:54spent the night watching TV together,
- 44:56laughing like family. By morning, Su Ho
- 44:58gently urged him to return home.
- 45:00Meanwhile, Ju's brother had fallen
- 45:02completely in love with Juhei, to the
- 45:04point that he began imagining her
- 45:06everywhere, even in his own sister. Back
- 45:08at school, Han found J and told her he
- 45:11had secured a coffee shop job for her.
- 45:13Grateful, Ju thanked him warmly, but the
- 45:16moment was cut short when Su Ho appeared
- 45:17and pulled her away. At her new job, J
- 45:20burned her hand. When Han heard, he
- 45:22rushed to the cafe in concern, but by
- 45:25the time he arrived, she had already
- 45:26gone. On his way out, he bumped into
- 45:28Seomi. His chain fell during the
- 45:31encounter, and Semi slightly picked it
- 45:32up, realizing something important about
- 45:34him. Later, Su Ho brought J to his home
- 45:37and showed her a hidden practice room
- 45:39that once belonged to Sean. He told her
- 45:41it was where He, Han, and Sean used to
- 45:44rehearse together. That evening, they
- 45:46sat down for dinner, unaware that Ju's
- 45:48father was still hiding there, never
- 45:49having gone home. When Su Ho leaned in,
- 45:52ready to kiss J during a horror movie,
- 45:54her father suddenly crawled out from
- 45:56under the table. Startled, J panicked
- 45:58and struck him on the head with a pot,
- 46:00knocking him to the floor. Shocked and
- 46:02terrified, J rushes to his side, her
- 46:05heart pounding with guilt and confusion.
- 46:07Later, as the two walk home in silence,
- 46:09her father breaks the uneasy air and
- 46:10asks, "What were you doing at Su Ho's
- 46:12house?" His tone is serious, his eyes
- 46:15full of suspicion. Gathering courage, J
- 46:17confesses softly, "I'm dating Su Ho."
- 46:21Her words hang in the air like a heavy
- 46:23truth. Then she looks at her father and
- 46:25asks in return, "What were you doing
- 46:27there?" Her father sigh deeply and tells
- 46:29her everything, his secret reasons for
- 46:31being at Suo's home. Both of them
- 46:33realizing how dangerous their secrets
- 46:34are, promise each other to never speak a
- 46:37word about what happened. The next
- 46:38morning, sunlight filters through the
- 46:40window as J meets her close friend Kang
- 46:42Su. She is just about to tell Kang Su
- 46:44the truth, about Su Ho, about
- 46:46everything. But before she can, Kang Su
- 46:48smiles shily and says, "J, I've liked Su
- 46:52Ho ever since we were friends, and now
- 46:54I've decided to tell him how I feel." Ju
- 46:56freezes. Her heart sinks. The words she
- 46:59was about to say vanish from her lips.
- 47:02She forces a small smile, but deep
- 47:04inside she's torn apart. That night,
- 47:07unable to bear the weight of her secret,
- 47:08J tosses and turns, unable to sleep.
- 47:11Meanwhile, in a comic shop across town,
- 47:13J's brother arrives, having discovered
- 47:15that Juhe He works there. Determined to
- 47:18impress her, he straightens his hair and
- 47:19puts on his best smile. Just then, Han
- 47:22enters, holding a lunchbox, his smile
- 47:24easy and familiar. He's brought food for
- 47:27Juhi, but Ju's brother misunderstands.
- 47:29Seeing Han with her, he jumps to the
- 47:31conclusion that Han is her boyfriend.
- 47:33Panicking, he hides his face and slips
- 47:35away quietly. Time passes and we see Ju
- 47:38and Kang Su walking through a busy
- 47:40marketplace. Laughter fills the air as
- 47:42Kangu picks out a cape, her eyes
- 47:44shining. I'm going to gift this to Su
- 47:46Ho, she says, and finally tell him how I
- 47:48feel. Ju's chest tightens, but she
- 47:51forces a smile. That's great, she says
- 47:53softly. She's happy for her friend, or
- 47:55at least she tries to be. After
- 47:58shopping, J is about to leave for work
- 47:59when Kang Su hands her a small gift.
- 48:02Something to cheer you up, she says
- 48:04warmly. Ju thanks her and heads to her
- 48:06part-time job, a small cozy cafe. But
- 48:09when she arrives, she freezes again. Han
- 48:12is there working alongside her. It turns
- 48:14out Han has taken this job just to spend
- 48:16more time with J. That night, as they
- 48:18walk home together, Ju finally opens up.
- 48:21Kang Su also likes Su Ho, she confesses.
- 48:24But she doesn't know that I'm dating
- 48:25him. If I tell her, our friendship will
- 48:27break. Han listens quietly, then says
- 48:29with calm wisdom, "If you care about
- 48:31your friend that much, maybe you should
- 48:33break up with Su Ho." Sometimes
- 48:35friendship is more important than love.
- 48:37When they reach her house, Han runs into
- 48:39Ju's mom outside. Smiling kindly, she
- 48:42invites him in for dinner. Han
- 48:43hesitates, but accepts. Inside, he's
- 48:46surprised to find Su Ho already sitting
- 48:49at the table. Ju's dad had invited him
- 48:51over. The dinner begins awkwardly.
- 48:53Everyone sits together folding
- 48:55dumplings. Su Ho glances at J, his voice
- 48:58calm but curious. Where were you coming
- 49:00from so late with Han? He asks. Caught
- 49:02off guard, J explains that she and Han
- 49:04work together part-time. Su Ho nods, but
- 49:07his eyes drift to her room. Curious, he
- 49:09steps inside and notices a few old
- 49:11childhood photos on the wall. One in
- 49:14particular catches his eye. A little
- 49:16girl smiling beside a comic shop. He
- 49:18picks it up, studying it closely. Joe
- 49:21quickly snatches the photo back, but in
- 49:22the rush, she stumbles and falls on top
- 49:25of Su Ho. Their eyes meet, hearts
- 49:27racing. And just then, her father bursts
- 49:30into the room. "Jo!" he shouts, pulling
- 49:32her away from Su Ho in disbelief. Later
- 49:34that evening, Su Ho and Han help carry
- 49:37the dining table downstairs. The air
- 49:39between them grows tense. Su Ho finally
- 49:41asks, "Why are you always around her?"
- 49:43Han frowns, his voice rising. "Because
- 49:46she's my friend." The tension snaps and
- 49:48a heated fight breaks out. Plates crash,
- 49:51chairs topple. Everyone rushes in,
- 49:53horrified. Ju's mother, furious and
- 49:55disappointed, scolds them both and sends
- 49:57them home. That night, Zu Ho sits alone,
- 50:00staring at the photo of young Jew.
- 50:02Realization dawn. She's the same girl he
- 50:05used to meet at the comic shop all those
- 50:07years ago. His heart softens and a faint
- 50:09smile touches his lips. The next morning
- 50:11at school, whispers fill the halls.
- 50:14Everyone's looking at J and Han,
- 50:15giggling, pointing. Someone has leaked
- 50:17their photooot pictures online. And now
- 50:19the whole school thinks they're a
- 50:21couple. J and Han try to explain, "We're
- 50:23just friends." But the rumors spread
- 50:25like wildfire. When Su Ho hears about
- 50:27it, his jealousy burns. He calls J to
- 50:30the terrace and demands, "Why didn't you
- 50:31tell me about those photos?" Ju tries to
- 50:34explain. I was going to tell you, but he
- 50:36cuts her off sharply. "You and Han can't
- 50:38be friends anymore." Ju<unk>s eyes fill
- 50:41with hurt. "Kang Su is your friend,
- 50:42too," she replies, but I never said
- 50:44anything to you. Her voice trembles. She
- 50:47turns away, tears glistening, and leaves
- 50:49him standing there speechless.
- 50:51Meanwhile, at her office, Ju's sister
- 50:53discovers something shocking. The
- 50:55company has released Sion's song, but
- 50:58under a different singer's name. Furious
- 51:00and heartbroken, she storms to the
- 51:02manager's office to confront him, but
- 51:03the manager refuses to let her in.
- 51:05Elsewhere, Kangu visits Su Ho's house.
- 51:08Smiling nervously, she hands him the
- 51:09cape she bought. "This is for you," she
- 51:11says softly. But Su Ho steps back. "I
- 51:14can't accept this world," he says. I
- 51:16already have a girlfriend. His words are
- 51:18gentle but final. Kangu's smile fades,
- 51:21her heart breaking silently. She leaves,
- 51:23tears glistening in her eyes. Later, Su
- 51:26Ho tries to call Ju, but she doesn't
- 51:28pick up. The call ends. Silence. That
- 51:31night, he waits outside and calls her
- 51:33again, asking to meet. When Ju arrives,
- 51:35he says firmly, "You can't work with Han
- 51:37anymore. You should quit this job." His
- 51:40words cut deep. "Why are you doing
- 51:41this?" she asks, voice trembling. But he
- 51:44has no answer. only jealousy and fear in
- 51:46his eyes. Hurt and frustrated, J turns
- 51:49away and walks off. She returns home and
- 51:51finally breaks down, crying in her room.
- 51:53Across town, Su Ho sits in his dark
- 51:55apartment, just as broken. The next day,
- 51:58J's sister arrives at Su Ho's father's
- 52:00house, demanding answers about Sean's
- 52:02stolen song. Her voice is sharp with
- 52:04anger, but Suho's father looks confused.
- 52:07He truly knows nothing. Suddenly, Suho
- 52:10walks in and overhears everything. His
- 52:12eyes widen, his jaw tightens. Furious
- 52:14and betrayed, he storms out of the
- 52:16house. At the same time, Han, who has
- 52:18also learned about the stolen song,
- 52:20rushes to meet Su Ho's father to
- 52:22confront him. But fate intervenes. On
- 52:24the way, he crosses paths with Su Ho.
- 52:27The two stop. Words collide. Tempers
- 52:29flare. And then, out of nowhere, a
- 52:31blinding flash of headlights. A car
- 52:33speeds toward them. Tires screech. A
- 52:35crash echoes through the night.
- 52:37Suddenly, time rewinds. We're pulled
- 52:38into a memory from the past. The sound
- 52:40of laughter, guitars, and soft singing
- 52:42fills a small music studio. Here, Han,
- 52:45Su Ho, and Sean are inseparable. Three
- 52:48young dreamers bonded by friendship and
- 52:50music. They compose songs together,
- 52:52chasing dreams of stardom. Sean, full of
- 52:55hope, is about to debut his first song
- 52:57under Su Ho's father's company. Su Ho
- 53:00and Han congratulate him, their eyes
- 53:02full of pride. But their happiness
- 53:04doesn't last long. One day, dark rumors
- 53:06spread. lies claiming that Sean had
- 53:09bullied a student. The internet turns
- 53:10against him. The company cancels his
- 53:12debut and the dream they built together
- 53:14shatters overnight. Sean falls into deep
- 53:17depression. Letters go unanswered. Calls
- 53:20fade into silence. And one tragic
- 53:23morning, he takes his own life. The
- 53:25memory ends in heartbreak. Back in the
- 53:27present, we see J visiting Kang Su. Her
- 53:30hands tremble as she finally confesses,
- 53:32"I'm dating Su Ho." Her voice cracks as
- 53:35tears roll down her face. I didn't tell
- 53:37you earlier because you like him too.
- 53:40She breaks down, guilt consuming her.
- 53:42Kang Su stares at her for a long moment.
- 53:44Then she smiles faintly and says, "It's
- 53:46okay. It's not your fault. Su Ho likes
- 53:49you, too." She pulls J into a gentle
- 53:51hug, but behind her soft smile lies a
- 53:53storm of jealousy. Deep down, Kang Su's
- 53:56heart burns with envy. When Ju returns
- 53:58home, Jyn rushes to her breathless. Su
- 54:01Ho and Han, they've been in an accident.
- 54:03Ju's face turns pale. Without a word,
- 54:06she grabs her coat and races out the
- 54:08door. At that same moment, Su Ho's
- 54:10father is meeting his manager. The man
- 54:12trembles as he confesses. Sir, I was the
- 54:15one who spread those false rumors about
- 54:17Sean. I only did it to hide your affair,
- 54:19and I'm also the one who leaked Sean's
- 54:21song. Su Ho's father is stunned, his
- 54:23eyes widen, his voice shaking with fury.
- 54:26Do you realize what you've done? He
- 54:28shouts. An innocent boy lost his life
- 54:30because of your lies. The manager lowers
- 54:32his head in shame and silence fills the
- 54:34room. Meanwhile, J rushes into the
- 54:36hospital. Her eyes are wet with tears as
- 54:38she enters a dim room where someone lies
- 54:41unconscious. She mistakes Han for Su Ho
- 54:44and through sobs, she whispers
- 54:45apologies, unaware that it's not her
- 54:48boyfriend lying there. Just then, Su Ho
- 54:50enters. Han opens his eyes slightly and
- 54:52asks, "Who are you?" Ju embarrassed and
- 54:55without makeup, hides her face. Su Ho
- 54:57quickly says, "She's my sister." Han
- 55:00frowns, confused. "You never told me you
- 55:02had a sister." Su Ho hesitates, then
- 55:05says, "Actually, I she's my cousin."
- 55:07Later, Ju sits quietly by Su Ho's side,
- 55:10her heart heavy, but relieved he's safe.
- 55:12The next day at school, Kang Su
- 55:14approaches her with a friendly smile.
- 55:15"Let's study together," she says. But J
- 55:18shakes her head. "I can't." Su Ho had an
- 55:21accident last night. Kangu freezes, her
- 55:23smile fading. "What? Why didn't you tell
- 55:25me sooner?" she asks, her voice
- 55:27trembling between concern and
- 55:29resentment. Then a new character enters,
- 55:31Haime, a girl from Ju's old school. She
- 55:34spots J across the hallway, her eyes
- 55:36narrowing in recognition. Later, as Haim
- 55:39walks home, she runs into Seomi, a
- 55:41notorious bully. Seomi smirks and warns
- 55:44her, "Find out if Han is Kim Ju's
- 55:46boyfriend. If you don't, we'll start
- 55:48bullying you again." Just like before,
- 55:50Hyman lowers her eyes, trapped once
- 55:52again in fear. At the hospital, Kang Su
- 55:55visits Su Ho. Han, sitting nearby, looks
- 55:57up and asks, "Why did you come alone?
- 56:00Isn't J your best friend?" Kang Su
- 56:02forces a small laugh. She's busy with
- 56:04work. She lies softly. She couldn't
- 56:06come. Meanwhile, at a cozy cafe across
- 56:09town, Jyn and Teacher Moon sit together.
- 56:11Unaware that this is the very cafe where
- 56:13J works. The moment Teacher Moon spots
- 56:16her, he panics and smears cake on his
- 56:18face to hide. Jyn laughs in disbelief. I
- 56:21didn't even know J worked here. But why
- 56:23are you hiding from her? Teacher Moon
- 56:25whispers. Because I don't want J to know
- 56:28that her class teacher is her sister's
- 56:30boyfriend. Back at the hospital, J
- 56:32visits Su Ho again, bringing him comic
- 56:34books. She sits beside him, smiling
- 56:36shily. One book slips and falls, and as
- 56:40she bends to pick it up, her hair gets
- 56:41caught on Su Ho's shirt button. They
- 56:44freeze inches apart. When suddenly, Ju's
- 56:46brother enters with food. Seeing them so
- 56:49close, he misunderstands everything. His
- 56:51face reens with anger and embarrassment,
- 56:53and he storms out. Moments later, Hans's
- 56:56friends arrive to visit. Su Ho quickly
- 56:58hides J under the blanket, whispering,
- 57:00"Don't move." The friends start teasing,
- 57:02trying to pull the blanket off, but Su
- 57:04Ho holds it down firmly. Laughter fills
- 57:06the room, but tension lingers
- 57:08underneath. Elsewhere, Jui visits her
- 57:11brother. When Juhi calls out, "Brother,"
- 57:13Ju's brother's eyes widen in shock.
- 57:15Then, realizing the connection, he
- 57:17bursts into a goofy grin. Han laughs
- 57:20softly and says, "Ju's brother is here."
- 57:22Later that evening, J gets ready to
- 57:24leave the hospital. Before she goes, she
- 57:26playfully writes something on Han's
- 57:27palm, a small teasing note, and waves
- 57:30goodbye with a mischievous smile.
- 57:32Meanwhile, on a nearby street, J's
- 57:34brother spots Jyn with teacher Moon, but
- 57:36from his angle, he can't see the
- 57:38teacher's face. Suspicious, he asks Jyn,
- 57:41"Who's that? Is he your boyfriend?" Jyn
- 57:43blushes, but refuses to answer. At
- 57:45school, He-Man secretly snaps photos of
- 57:47J on her phone, but Kang Su catches her.
- 57:50She glances at He-Man Min's screen and
- 57:52sees all the pictures of Ju. A strange
- 57:54look crosses Kang Su's face. Back in the
- 57:57hospital, Su Ho's father visits his son.
- 58:00Su Ho looks at him coldly and says, "I
- 58:02always blamed myself for Sean's death
- 58:04because I didn't answer his last call."
- 58:06His voice trembles, "But now I blame you
- 58:09for mom's death, too." His father looks
- 58:11crushed and finally reveals the truth.
- 58:14It was his manager who spread the lies
- 58:15who caused Sean's downfall. Outside the
- 58:18room, Ju and Han overhear everything.
- 58:21Their hearts ache as Su Ho breaks down
- 58:23inside. Suddenly, his breathing
- 58:24quickens. His hands tremble. The doctor
- 58:27rushes in. He's having a panic attack
- 58:29from severe stress. Later, Han visits
- 58:31him again, guilt heavy in his eyes. I'm
- 58:34sorry, he says softly. I know now that
- 58:36neither you nor your father were to
- 58:38blame for Sean's death. The next
- 58:40morning, breaking news flashes across TV
- 58:42screens. Su Ho's father has resigned
- 58:44from his company. The entertainment
- 58:46industry is in shock. Even Kang Su
- 58:49watching from her room gasps. Without
- 58:51wasting a second, she rushes to the
- 58:52hospital to tell Su Ho. When she reaches
- 58:54him, she sees Su Ho together with Ju.
- 58:58Seeing them both together makes her
- 58:59extremely angry, and she leaves in
- 59:02frustration. Su Ho and Han stand
- 59:04silently before Sean's grave. The air is
- 59:07heavy with grief, and the sky seems to
- 59:09mourn with them. Su Ho gently places a
- 59:11folded letter into Han's hands. A letter
- 59:13that Sean had written for him before his
- 59:15tragic death. As Han unfolds the paper
- 59:18and begins to read, his eyes fill with
- 59:20tears. Every word pierces his heart, a
- 59:22reminder of the friendship and music
- 59:24they once shared. As the two sit
- 59:26quietly, reminiscing about their lost
- 59:28friend. A car passes by. A man from the
- 59:31window throws a cigarette at Han,
- 59:32sparking a heated confrontation.
- 59:34Suddenly, several thugs step out of the
- 59:36vehicle, their eyes burning with menace.
- 59:38Han immediately grabs Su Ho, whose body
- 59:41is still weak, and starts running. But
- 59:43the ground is slippery, and both of them
- 59:44tumble into the mud. The thugs laugh
- 59:46cruy before finally driving away,
- 59:48leaving the two covered in dirt, but
- 59:50alive. They get up exhausted and drive
- 59:52away together, bruised, but safe. Later
- 59:55that evening, they share dinner at home.
- 59:57Su Ho's phone rings. It's a video call
- 59:59from J. His face softens as they talk,
- 1:00:02her voice bringing him comfort. But when
- 1:00:04he returns to his room afterward, he
- 1:00:05finds the door locked from the inside.
- 1:00:07Han refuses to answer. Su Ho knocks
- 1:00:10repeatedly, but Han, still overwhelmed
- 1:00:12with emotion, ignores him and eventually
- 1:00:14falls asleep. The next morning, Su Ho
- 1:00:17arrives at Ju's house to pick her up.
- 1:00:19Ju's face lights up with happiness at
- 1:00:21the sight of him. Together, they walk to
- 1:00:23school laughing softly, unaware of the
- 1:00:25storm waiting for them. At school, Kang
- 1:00:27Su approaches a girl named Hin. She
- 1:00:29recently discovered that He-Man used to
- 1:00:31study at Young Pi High, the same school
- 1:00:33Ju attended before. Kang Su eagerly
- 1:00:35introduces her to Ju. But the moment J's
- 1:00:38eyes meet He-Man's, her smile fades.
- 1:00:41Memories of the bullying, the
- 1:00:42humiliation, and the fear from her past
- 1:00:45rush back like a wave. Without saying a
- 1:00:47word, J turns away and walks off,
- 1:00:49leaving both girls stunned. Later in
- 1:00:51class, Lely excitedly runs up to J and
- 1:00:54says, "I uploaded your photo to the
- 1:00:56online queen competition. You're in
- 1:00:58second place." J forces a smile, but
- 1:01:01when Lely shows her the picture of the
- 1:01:02girl in first place, Seomi J freezes.
- 1:01:06Her heart skips a beat. Seom was one of
- 1:01:08her tormentors at her old school. Fear
- 1:01:10creeps in as she whispers, "Delete the
- 1:01:12photo, please." But Lei shakes her head.
- 1:01:14"No way you might win." During lunch,
- 1:01:17Juices Kang Su sitting with He-M. The
- 1:01:19sight makes her uneasy. What if He-Man
- 1:01:22tells Kang Su about her past? Unable to
- 1:01:24bear it, Ju stands up and leaves. Kang
- 1:01:26Su watches her go, a faint smirk curling
- 1:01:29on her lips. Deep down, she's pleased to
- 1:01:30see Ju uncomfortable. That evening, J
- 1:01:33visits the comic shop, still lost in
- 1:01:35worry. Su Ho arrives, his warm presence
- 1:01:38melting her anxiety for a moment.
- 1:01:40Smiling shily, she gives him several
- 1:01:42small gifts she bought with her first
- 1:01:43salary. Su Ho's heart softens, her
- 1:01:46thoughtfulness always touches him.
- 1:01:48Meanwhile, Han learns that J has now
- 1:01:50climbed to second place in the online
- 1:01:51queen competition. The next day, J walks
- 1:01:54into school and is met with chaos. Lee
- 1:01:57rushes toward her, screaming with
- 1:01:59excitement. You did it. You're number
- 1:02:01one now. You're the school's queen. Ju's
- 1:02:03heart drops. Now everyone is looking at
- 1:02:05her. Students from other classes and
- 1:02:07even teachers come by to see the new
- 1:02:09online queen. She forces a smile for the
- 1:02:11cameras, but inside she's trembling. If
- 1:02:14Seomi recognizes her, everything could
- 1:02:16collapse. Elsewhere, Jui gently tells
- 1:02:19Ju's brother, "I know you like me, but I
- 1:02:21also know you're Jews brother, so we can
- 1:02:23only be friends." His face falls and
- 1:02:26silence lingers between them. Back at
- 1:02:28school, Seomi fumes upon hearing she's
- 1:02:31fallen to second place. Her pride is
- 1:02:33wounded. Later that day, J walks home
- 1:02:35with Kang Su. Suddenly, Seoi appears in
- 1:02:37front of them. Jesus, her pulse
- 1:02:39quickens. Kang Su immediately notices
- 1:02:42her fear. Seomi approaches with a sly
- 1:02:44smile, trying to talk, but Ju turns away
- 1:02:46and walks off without a word. Watching
- 1:02:48this, Seomi and her friends spot He-Man
- 1:02:51nearby. They rush to her and begin
- 1:02:53bullying her just like before. Kang Su
- 1:02:55and Ju see it happening and without
- 1:02:57hesitation, they run to help. Ju grabs
- 1:03:00Hi Min's hand and pulls her away while
- 1:03:02Kangu stays behind to confront Seomi.
- 1:03:05Later, Yimn tearfully thanks J. I won't
- 1:03:07tell anyone about your past, she
- 1:03:09promises softly. But J, still
- 1:03:11overwhelmed, says nothing and storms
- 1:03:13off. The next day, the school buzzes
- 1:03:15with excitement. J's official photo
- 1:03:17shoot for the online queen title is
- 1:03:19taking place. Cameras flash, students
- 1:03:21cheer, but J feels suffocated. Every
- 1:03:24click of the camera feels like exposure,
- 1:03:26like the truth might burst out any
- 1:03:27second. Meanwhile, Kangu convinces Seomi
- 1:03:30to send her unflattering pictures of J
- 1:03:32without makeup. On her way home, Ju
- 1:03:35accidentally bumps into Seomi. Her
- 1:03:37necklace, the one Su Ho gave her, slips
- 1:03:39off and falls to the ground. Kang Su
- 1:03:41quietly picks it up and hides it in her
- 1:03:43pocket, her eyes dark with jealousy. At
- 1:03:46school the next day, J realizes her
- 1:03:48necklace is missing, panic spreads
- 1:03:49through her. Su Ho notices her distress
- 1:03:51and joins her in searching for it. Han
- 1:03:54also arrives to help, but when Ju tells
- 1:03:56him, "It's the necklace Su Ho gave me."
- 1:03:58Han's face hardens. Without a word, he
- 1:04:00turns and walks away. Outside, Su Ho
- 1:04:03continues looking. That's when Kang Su
- 1:04:05appears holding the necklace. Are you
- 1:04:07looking for this? She asks. Su Ho sides
- 1:04:10with relief until she smirks and throws
- 1:04:12it into a fire. Flames swallow the
- 1:04:14necklace as Su Ho shouts, "Why did you
- 1:04:16do that?" Tears fill Kang Su<unk>s eyes
- 1:04:18as she blurts, "Because I like you.
- 1:04:20Leave J. She doesn't deserve you." Su Ho
- 1:04:23stares at her, pained. "I'll never leave
- 1:04:25her," he says quietly before walking
- 1:04:27away. Later that evening, Han waits
- 1:04:29outside the school for J. She's still
- 1:04:31inside, searching desperately. Just
- 1:04:34then, Su Ho arrives. He gently places an
- 1:04:37identical necklace inside a flower pot.
- 1:04:38"Look there," he says with a smile. J
- 1:04:41gasps with joy when she finds it. Han
- 1:04:44watches from a distance, unseen. He
- 1:04:46takes a step forward, but when he sees
- 1:04:48Su Ho helping J put on the necklace, he
- 1:04:50stops. The ache in his heart too heavy
- 1:04:53to move. Suddenly, the watchman appears,
- 1:04:55and J and Su Ho rush to hide, ducking
- 1:04:58into an empty classroom. But fate plays
- 1:05:00a cruel trick. Inside, they find Ju's
- 1:05:03sister and teacher Moon hiding as well.
- 1:05:05Shock flashes across Ju's face. "You
- 1:05:08shouldn't be dating our teacher," she
- 1:05:09says to her sister, her voice trembling.
- 1:05:11"If anyone at school finds out, I won't
- 1:05:14forgive you." Meanwhile, Kangu meets
- 1:05:16Seomi once more. Seomi demands Ju's home
- 1:05:19address, and Kangu gives it to her. That
- 1:05:21evening, Seomi walks toward Ju's house,
- 1:05:24her eyes filled with malice. Han spots
- 1:05:26her. "What are you doing here?" he asks
- 1:05:29sternly. Siomi smirks and says, "I just
- 1:05:32came to see J. You should know she's a
- 1:05:34liar." She shows him the secret pictures
- 1:05:36of J without makeup. Hans eyes flare
- 1:05:39with anger. He grabs her phone and
- 1:05:41smashes it to the ground. "Don't ever
- 1:05:43show your face here again," he warns,
- 1:05:45his voice cold and fierce. Outside Ju's
- 1:05:48house, Su Ho arrives to drop her home
- 1:05:50safely. The night is quiet. He looks at
- 1:05:52her tenderly, unaware of the danger
- 1:05:54slowly closing in.
- 1:06:01arriving at school the next day and
- 1:06:03seeing posters of herself everywhere
- 1:06:05because she has become the school's
- 1:06:07beauty queen. However, as she walks
- 1:06:09towards her class, she notices some
- 1:06:11students giving her strange looks. When
- 1:06:13she enters the class, Lee shows her some
- 1:06:15videos and pictures on her phone. These
- 1:06:17included videos of her being bullied at
- 1:06:19her previous school and some photos of
- 1:06:21her with Zu Ho. Lee asks J, "Is this
- 1:06:25really you?" All the students in the
- 1:06:27class start laughing at Ju and making
- 1:06:28fun of her. Ju starts crying and tries
- 1:06:31to leave. She bumps into a boy and
- 1:06:32falls. Su Ho then arrives and tries to
- 1:06:35talk to Ju, but J runs away. Outside,
- 1:06:37when Han sees her running, he thinks J
- 1:06:40must have fought with Su Ho again. Then
- 1:06:42Han's friend comes and shows him Ju's
- 1:06:44video. Seeing all this, Han also gets
- 1:06:47worried for J. Su Ho is looking for J
- 1:06:49everywhere, but J boards a bus and
- 1:06:51leaves. When J's brother finds out about
- 1:06:53this, he gets into a fight with some
- 1:06:55boys who were speaking ill of J. In
- 1:06:57class, when teacher Moon finds out that
- 1:06:59J hasn't come to school, he thinks she
- 1:07:01might be absent because of him as he is
- 1:07:03dating J's sister. He assumes J might be
- 1:07:05feeling uncomfortable coming to school.
- 1:07:07Su Ho keeps calling J, but she doesn't
- 1:07:09answer his calls. Next, we see Han at
- 1:07:11J's previous school. He meets Seomi and
- 1:07:14asks her to delete the video from the
- 1:07:15school community as he suspects she
- 1:07:17uploaded it. But Seomi denies uploading
- 1:07:20the video. She only tells him that the
- 1:07:22video was uploaded by a student from his
- 1:07:23school and they seem to already know J's
- 1:07:26secret. Now we see Suo has come to J's
- 1:07:29house, but J's mom tells him that J is
- 1:07:31not home. While cleaning Ju's room, her
- 1:07:33mom finds a registration card for a
- 1:07:35makeup academy. Seeing this, she gets
- 1:07:37very angry, thinking J is skipping her
- 1:07:40studies to become a makeup artist. Next,
- 1:07:42Han finds out that Kang Su uploaded the
- 1:07:44video. He takes her outside the
- 1:07:46classroom and asks her to delete the
- 1:07:48video, but Kang Su refuses. Han tells
- 1:07:50her, "What will Su Ho think of you when
- 1:07:52he finds out? You're only hurting
- 1:07:54yourself by doing this." That night,
- 1:07:56when J arrives home, Su Ho is there and
- 1:07:58wants to talk to her, but J avoids him
- 1:08:00and goes inside. When J is home, her mom
- 1:08:03starts scolding her about the makeup
- 1:08:05academy, but J cries and goes to her
- 1:08:07room. Next, we see teacher Moon is
- 1:08:09emotional and tells Jyn, "We should
- 1:08:11break up because J is very upset because
- 1:08:13of our relationship and isn't coming to
- 1:08:15school." He also says to Jyn, "But I
- 1:08:17will definitely meet you again and I
- 1:08:19will fall in love with you again."
- 1:08:21Hearing this, Jyn finds it strange and
- 1:08:23wonders who breaks up over such a small
- 1:08:24matter. The next day, J is still absent.
- 1:08:27Teacher Moon knows about this and the
- 1:08:29principal asks him to meet with Ju's
- 1:08:30parents. We see Han and Su Ho are
- 1:08:33removing Ju's posters at school because
- 1:08:35people had written nasty things about
- 1:08:36Jew on them. Now, teacher Moon is
- 1:08:38explaining to all the students in the
- 1:08:40class that no one should have behaved
- 1:08:41this way towards Jew. No one should make
- 1:08:43fun of Ju's face and he emphasizes how
- 1:08:46bad she must be feeling. Han's friend
- 1:08:48comes and tells him, "I have found the
- 1:08:50administrator who can delete Ju's video
- 1:08:52from the school community." And he also
- 1:08:54tells him that the administrator is a
- 1:08:56girl. Han goes to meet the girl and sees
- 1:08:59Ju fighting with her. Han tells the
- 1:09:01girl, "You have to delete J's video
- 1:09:02instantly." Su Ho comes to Ju's house
- 1:09:05again and brings food for her, but J's
- 1:09:06brother refuses to let him meet J
- 1:09:08because J has locked herself in her room
- 1:09:10and isn't talking to anyone. At school,
- 1:09:13teacher Moon is telling Ju's mom
- 1:09:14everything and showing her Jew's video,
- 1:09:16explaining how she was bullied in
- 1:09:18school. J's mom is very saddened by this
- 1:09:20because she had no idea this was
- 1:09:22happening. J comes to meet Kang Su and
- 1:09:24asks her, "Did you upload that video
- 1:09:27because you were the only one who knew
- 1:09:28my secret?" Kangu admits, "Yes, I
- 1:09:31uploaded that video." J starts crying
- 1:09:33and tells her, "I thought you were my
- 1:09:34best friend." Now, when J returns home,
- 1:09:37her mom apologizes to her and hugs her.
- 1:09:39She tells her, "I haven't always behaved
- 1:09:41well with you and I haven't tried to
- 1:09:43understand you." Jyn also advises J that
- 1:09:46she shouldn't be afraid of anyone and
- 1:09:47should always be confident. Next, we see
- 1:09:50J is sitting upset at the comic shop. Su
- 1:09:52Ho arrives happy to see her. He tries to
- 1:09:55make her laugh and takes her out to
- 1:09:56cheer her up. He tells her, "You
- 1:09:58shouldn't run away from people and you
- 1:10:00should accept your real face because you
- 1:10:02look good just the way you are." We see
- 1:10:04a boy asking Jyn to take her out for
- 1:10:05dinner, but teacher Moon is standing
- 1:10:07nearby and sees everything. Jyn notices
- 1:10:09him and deliberately gets into the boy's
- 1:10:11car. Seeing this, teacher Moon becomes
- 1:10:14sad. Now, Su Ho drops Ju home. As he is
- 1:10:17leaving, he gets a call from his dad.
- 1:10:19His dad tells Su Ho that he is going to
- 1:10:21America for a few days. Su Ho's behavior
- 1:10:23towards his dad has improved and his dad
- 1:10:25is very happy about this. He tells Su
- 1:10:28Ho, "When I return home, we will have
- 1:10:29dinner together at a nice hotel." The
- 1:10:31next day, J has come to school. She is
- 1:10:34very confident, and everyone is
- 1:10:36surprised to see her. They are all
- 1:10:37calling her strong and are talking to
- 1:10:39her properly, but Leeli is still mad at
- 1:10:42her and angrily leaves the class. J
- 1:10:44follows her, but on the way, some girls
- 1:10:46stop J and tell her, "Suho will never
- 1:10:48date an ugly girl like you." Hearing
- 1:10:50their words, J confidently tells
- 1:10:52everyone, "I am really dating Su Ho."
- 1:10:55She then tells the girls off, saying,
- 1:10:57"They are the kind of people who judge
- 1:10:58others based on their looks." Just then,
- 1:11:01Su Ho arrives. Seeing J so confident, he
- 1:11:04is very happy and hugs J in front of
- 1:11:06everyone. Everyone is shocked to see
- 1:11:08this. Now, Ju and Su Ho arrive at class
- 1:11:10together. Kangu is completely shocked to
- 1:11:12see J, unable to believe she returned to
- 1:11:14school after all the drama. Kang Su
- 1:11:16confronts Ju asking her what she hopes
- 1:11:18to gain by showing up and what she
- 1:11:20thinks of herself. Just then, Lei
- 1:11:22arrives. Having discovered that Kang Su
- 1:11:24uploaded Ju's video, Leeli ends their
- 1:11:27friendship and storms off. J chases
- 1:11:29after her, apologizing profusely and
- 1:11:31begging for reconciliation. Meanwhile,
- 1:11:34Suho talks to Kang Su, insisting that
- 1:11:36her spiteful behavior is not her true
- 1:11:38self, and urging her to apologize to J
- 1:11:41before it's too late. Kangu refuses.
- 1:11:43Outside school, Han is sitting alone. He
- 1:11:45kicks a can which accidentally hits Ju's
- 1:11:48brother on the head. Han apologizes, but
- 1:11:50Ju's brother hugs him and cries. He
- 1:11:52reveals that Jui rejected him, but he
- 1:11:54feels relieved because he finally
- 1:11:55confessed his feelings and can now move
- 1:11:57on. This confession makes Han realize
- 1:12:00that he too should confess his feelings
- 1:12:01to J. We see J sleeping in class. Han
- 1:12:05arrives, sits next to her, and watches
- 1:12:07her, reminiscing about their shared
- 1:12:08moments. He tells her, "You look good
- 1:12:10even without makeup." J and Lei are
- 1:12:13hanging out when they spot Seomi and her
- 1:12:15friends bullying Hyim again. J and Lei
- 1:12:18rush over to defend her and a
- 1:12:20confrontation breaks out. Hans's friend
- 1:12:22eventually intervenes to stop the fight.
- 1:12:24Later, the three girls have dinner and
- 1:12:26He-Man officially becomes friends with J
- 1:12:28and Lei. The next day, J is cleaning her
- 1:12:31mom's beauty parlor and discovers a
- 1:12:33makeup box. Her mom's way of agreeing to
- 1:12:35her makeup academy admission. Teacher
- 1:12:37Moon has had too much to drink. Jyn
- 1:12:39arrives and his drunken ramblings make
- 1:12:41her laugh. As Jyn drives him away, she
- 1:12:43sees a thief running whom she stops. The
- 1:12:46people chasing the thief turn out to be
- 1:12:47Jyn's parents. When teacher Moon gets
- 1:12:49out of the car, Jyn's parents realize
- 1:12:51that Jyn is dating him. Han and Su Ho
- 1:12:53are wrestling. Su Ho wins and forces Han
- 1:12:56to perform a song on stage in front of
- 1:12:58everyone as his forfeit. Later, while
- 1:13:01having dinner, Han suddenly says plans
- 1:13:03to confess his feelings to Ju. The next
- 1:13:05day, everyone in class knows that Kang
- 1:13:07Su uploaded Ju's video and she faces
- 1:13:09intense criticism. Distressed, Kang Su
- 1:13:12tries to leave the class. J follows her
- 1:13:14and assures her, "I forgive you. We can
- 1:13:17be friends again." But Kangu harshly
- 1:13:19rejects her, saying, "We can never be
- 1:13:21friends." and walks away. J is
- 1:13:23heartbroken and Kang Su cries later.
- 1:13:26Overwhelmed by guilt, Su Ho and Ju go on
- 1:13:29a trip to the beach and enjoy a
- 1:13:30beautiful time together. Meanwhile, Jyn
- 1:13:32visits Han at his job and shows him his
- 1:13:34viral singing video. She encourages him
- 1:13:37to start singing again as it was Sean's
- 1:13:39dream for him. Han then receives a
- 1:13:41frantic call from America. Su Ho's
- 1:13:43father has collapsed and is in the
- 1:13:45hospital. Han tries to call Su Ho, but
- 1:13:47he left his phone at home. Han finds out
- 1:13:50from Ju's friend that they are at the
- 1:13:51beach. Han rushes to the beach to
- 1:13:53deliver the news. Su Ho is devastated
- 1:13:56and must leave immediately for a flight.
- 1:13:57He tells Han, "You have to take good
- 1:13:59care of Ju and departs. We fast forward
- 1:14:02two years. J is with her friends at a
- 1:14:04restaurant and is heavily intoxicated.
- 1:14:06Han arrives to help her, but J passes
- 1:14:08out, resting her head on his shoulder,
- 1:14:10mistaking him for Su Ho. Zu Ho is with
- 1:14:12his father whose condition has improved.
- 1:14:15He is planning his return to Korea and
- 1:14:17tells J he will be on a flight tomorrow.
- 1:14:19Ju is thrilled. However, the next day as
- 1:14:21Su Ho is leaving, his father's health
- 1:14:23suddenly worsens. The doctor reports his
- 1:14:26condition is critical with a risk of
- 1:14:27falling into a coma. Su Ho's trip is
- 1:14:29canled. Ju waits for him at the airport
- 1:14:31for hours, becoming deeply upset when he
- 1:14:34never arrives. The next day, Lely tells
- 1:14:36Ju that Kang Su has left school and gone
- 1:14:38abroad to study. J is later home
- 1:14:40studying when she experiences a severe
- 1:14:42stomach ache. Her mom rushes her to the
- 1:14:45hospital. Su Ho calls and J's mom tells
- 1:14:47him about Ju's condition. Su Ho is
- 1:14:49instantly worried, believing Ju's stress
- 1:14:51is his fault. J has returned home and is
- 1:14:54feeling better. Su Ho calls her and
- 1:14:56says, "I know you're stressed because of
- 1:14:58me and I'm not with you during this
- 1:15:00tough time. I think it will take me a
- 1:15:02long time to return from America and
- 1:15:04maybe I might never return. I think we
- 1:15:06should break up." J cries, pleading with
- 1:15:08him not to break up over this distance.
- 1:15:10Su Ho tells her, "You need to focus on
- 1:15:12your studies and your career now." And
- 1:15:14then hangs up. J is left sobbing
- 1:15:16uncontrollably, and Su Ho is also
- 1:15:18heartbroken and crying alone. In the
- 1:15:20next scene, J is passing by the comic
- 1:15:22book store when she sees the owner
- 1:15:24replacing all the old furniture. A
- 1:15:26particular chair reminds her of Su Ho,
- 1:15:28who used to sit there. J enters the
- 1:15:30store and sees something Su Ho wrote on
- 1:15:32the wall for her, which reveals to her
- 1:15:33that he was the boy she used to meet at
- 1:15:35the store when they were children. That
- 1:15:37very wall, there was once a note
- 1:15:38written, a promise that when the first
- 1:15:40snowfall of the year arrived, they would
- 1:15:42both go to Namson Tower and make a wish
- 1:15:44together. Time passes and J finally
- 1:15:46graduates from school. But even after
- 1:15:48all this time, she still keeps in touch
- 1:15:50with Su Ho through messages. She often
- 1:15:53updates him about her life, her
- 1:15:54struggles, her small joys, everything.
- 1:15:57In one of her messages, she writes to
- 1:15:58him, "I'm finally moving on." In the
- 1:16:01next scene, we see that J has now become
- 1:16:03a makeup artist for a famous model named
- 1:16:05Julia. Julia is bright, confident, and
- 1:16:08charming. But she secretly likes Han.
- 1:16:10She already knows that Han is Ju's close
- 1:16:12friend, which is why she constantly
- 1:16:13teases J, asking, "Come on, when will
- 1:16:16you introduce me to Han?" J messages Han
- 1:16:18about Julia, but Han refuses to meet
- 1:16:20her. Julia snatches J's phone and reads
- 1:16:22Han's message where he wrote that he
- 1:16:24would never meet a girl like her. Julia
- 1:16:27spills coffee on herself, but blames J
- 1:16:28for it. We see the scene again where J
- 1:16:31had too much to drink. Han arrives and J
- 1:16:33repeatedly tells him that he should meet
- 1:16:35Julia because she is bothering her a
- 1:16:36lot. Han starts taking J home, but she
- 1:16:39keeps urging him to meet Julia. Han
- 1:16:41tells her, "Don't force me to meet that
- 1:16:43girl. Don't you know that I only have
- 1:16:45feelings for you?" Ju stops walking,
- 1:16:47surprised. The next morning, when J
- 1:16:50comes out of her room, she sees Han at
- 1:16:52her house. Her family tells her she was
- 1:16:53drunk last night and Han brought her
- 1:16:55home, but J doesn't clearly remember
- 1:16:57what happened. While everyone is having
- 1:16:59breakfast, Han announces that he is
- 1:17:00going to debut his new song and become a
- 1:17:03singer. As Han is leaving, he asks J,
- 1:17:05"Do you remember anything about what
- 1:17:07happened between us last night?" J says,
- 1:17:09"Nothing happened between us." Han tells
- 1:17:12her that he confessed his feelings to
- 1:17:13her last night. J is shocked. Later,
- 1:17:15when J is at her job, Han messages her
- 1:17:18asking to meet. Next, we see Kang Su has
- 1:17:20returned to Korea. She sees J and
- 1:17:22follows her, but she bumps into someone.
- 1:17:24And by then, J has left. Han has called
- 1:17:27J to meet, and he confesses his feelings
- 1:17:29to her again. He says that he wants to
- 1:17:31be with her so much that he asks her to
- 1:17:33go on three blind dates with him. J
- 1:17:35returns home and starts thinking about
- 1:17:37Su Ho. Ju is outside her house and sees
- 1:17:40that the first snowfall of the year is
- 1:17:41about to happen. She remembers Su Ho's
- 1:17:43note on the wall about going to Namzan
- 1:17:45on the first snowfall to make a wish. J
- 1:17:48rushes to the tower. When she arrives,
- 1:17:50she sees a man, but it's not Su Ho. J
- 1:17:52stays there for a while, but as she is
- 1:17:54leaving, she remembers she forgot her
- 1:17:56purse. When she goes back to retrieve
- 1:17:58it, she finds Su Ho there. J is shocked
- 1:18:01to see him. Su Ho has returned to Korea
- 1:18:03and came to this place first. Su Ho
- 1:18:06tells her, "I missed you so much." J
- 1:18:08says, "Why are you here? You broke up
- 1:18:10with me. you shouldn't be here. She
- 1:18:12walks away angrily, but then she starts
- 1:18:14feeling sick. Su Ho takes her to the
- 1:18:16hospital. The doctor says J only has
- 1:18:19constipation. J is very embarrassed in
- 1:18:21front of Su Ho and quickly sneaks out of
- 1:18:23the hospital. Han also finds out that Su
- 1:18:25Ho has returned to Korea and is very
- 1:18:27happy about it. Su Ho tells Han that he
- 1:18:29has already met J. The next day, when J
- 1:18:32is going to her job, Su Ho arrives. He
- 1:18:35tries to win her over, but J is still
- 1:18:36mad at him. She gets into a taxi and
- 1:18:38leaves. When she is at the salon, Su Ho
- 1:18:41shows up there, too. J tells him to
- 1:18:43leave, but he refuses. When J finishes
- 1:18:45her work and is about to leave, she sees
- 1:18:47Han waiting for her outside. Han asks
- 1:18:49her to go out with him. Su Ho finds out
- 1:18:51that J has left the salon. Han takes J
- 1:18:54ice skating. They skate together and
- 1:18:55have a lot of fun. On the other side, we
- 1:18:57see Su Ho at the comic store. He sees
- 1:19:00the writing J left for him on the wall,
- 1:19:02saying that Su Ho broke up with her over
- 1:19:03such a small thing. Su Ho laughs after
- 1:19:06reading this. Now Han is walking J home.
- 1:19:09He hugs her and just then Su Ho sees
- 1:19:11them. When Han is leaving, Su Ho comes
- 1:19:13up to him and asks, "Do you still like
- 1:19:15J?" Han says they are dating each other,
- 1:19:18but then tells Su Ho he was just joking
- 1:19:20and that nothing like that is happening.
- 1:19:22J is at home thinking about both Han and
- 1:19:24Su Ho. Who is she going to choose? If
- 1:19:27you were J, which one would you pick for
- 1:19:29her? The next day, J goes to Han's
- 1:19:31studio to meet him. She tells him, I
- 1:19:33want to tell you something. Han tells
- 1:19:35her that Su Ho is going back to America
- 1:19:37and she should stop him from leaving. He
- 1:19:39sends Ju away. Ju arrives at Su Ho<unk>s
- 1:19:41house and is crying. She tells Su Ho,
- 1:19:43please don't go back. Su Ho says, "I'm
- 1:19:46not going back. He lied to you." Han
- 1:19:48returns home and cries a lot because it
- 1:19:50wasn't easy for him to let Ju go. Su Ho
- 1:19:52is taking Ju home and he tells her that
- 1:19:54he has liked her since childhood and
- 1:19:56that they used to meet at the comic
- 1:19:57shop. Ju tells him that she already
- 1:19:59knows that. The next day, Ju goes to
- 1:20:02meet Han. J apologizes to Han and tells
- 1:20:05him that she respects his feelings. Han
- 1:20:07also apologizes to Joe and says that he
- 1:20:09complicated things, but he can now move
- 1:20:11on with his life because he will be very
- 1:20:13busy and will focus on his career. In

- 1:20:30and talks back to her. Just then,
- 1:20:32Julia's assistant behaves rudely with
- 1:20:34Ju. A girl comes and kicks the assistant
- 1:20:36in the face. This girl is none other
- 1:20:38than Kang Su. We see J and Kang Su

- 1:20:59too much to drink. Ju takes Su Ho to his
- 1:21:02house. When she is about to leave, Su Ho
- 1:21:04makes her lie down next to him. Ju falls
- 1:21:07asleep. After sleeping for a while, J
