DOONA!
Doona.
Lee Doona.
Wake up.
Lee Doona!
EPISODE 2 GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER
Jeong-hun consumes 150 grams of protein a day.
His sole concern is the peace and well-being of his body.
Straighten your elbows out, make them taut. That's it. Now breathe in.
His dating views are pretty rigid.
Our population is out of control.
It's not like propagation is really needed.
Our reproductive function in the future should go through a degenerative process.
That could be our next evolution. Don't you think?
Uh…
Don't take any notice of him, babe. He's an idiot.
Say "ah."
Yun-taek's nickname is the Hundred-Day Prince.
Right?
He dreams of a fated love,
but he can't ever go more than 100 days without getting dumped.
Of course, you won't always know everyone's story entirely…
…because we all have a version of ourselves
that we want to hide from the world.
Hmm?
CONVENIENCE STORE

I sent a screenshot of the message the boss sent me yesterday.
That's it, right?
Yeah, okay.
Uh…
Hey!
Mmm.
EDWARD
So you'll go by Edward here. We all go by English names.
We really lucked out you were available for hire so soon.
Oh, look, there's Alice.
No way!
- Seriously, you're the new guy? - Do you two know each other?
Uh, yeah!
What a coincidence.
Welcome aboard.
- Morning! - Hello, welcome.
- Can I have one iced Americano, please? - Certainly.
Mister, your iced hazelnut latte is ready.
One moment.
Enjoy your latte.
Thank you so much.
Oh!

MARCH 2021 MOCK EXAM SCHOLARSHIP 1ST PLACE YANGJIN HIGH SCHOOL LEE WON-JUN
2ND PLACE YANGJIN GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL KIM JIN-JU
KIM JIN-JU YANGJIN GIRLS' HIGH
Oh? There's Kim Jin-ju.
Do you know her?
Uh, our restaurant's in her family's building.
They are super-duper rich.
- Ah. - Oh! Yu-i is there.
Hey, I'll go say hi. I'll be back.
Oh, got it!
Okay, got it.
Yeah!
Excuse me.
Hmm?
- Oh! - So I heard you're good with math.
- Is that right? - Mm-hmm.
Do you think you could help me with this?
Mmm…
Oh.
- Oh. - Here.
Thank you.
So, um, this triangle here…
… cosine…
Are you going home now?
Uh, no. I'm heading to a tutoring gig.
Oh.
I work a lot, huh?
You're not going through any troubles now, are you?
Why? You worried my family's going broke?
No, no, no, that's not why.
Well, I'm glad everything's good.
Oh.
ALICE
Whenever I have tuna,
I always kind of feel like I've made it in life, you know?
So I'm gonna lay down a bed of rice,
and then I'll put this in a fermented tuna chopsticks…
Wait, what did I say?
Now I have to warn you…
So salty that you really only have to add a tiny amount.
MOM
Next, you're gonna take some of this.
Kind of like making sushi. Well, that's what it feels like.
Use a little of the sesame-oil-and-salt mixture too.
I was really craving this today.
I wanted to have it with warm, cooked rice.
DOONA
Sorry, the number you're trying to reach is currently unavailable.
Please leave a message after the tone.
Didn't we agree you wouldn't keep a personal cell phone?
Sometimes I just wanna hear your voice, you know?
Don't cause any trouble.
Aw, you're so cute.
You like me, don't you?
Just be careful with people.
You're better off staying out of their way.
Lots of bad people out there.
Hmm?
Ah!
Ah. Wow, you're a genius. You understood me right away.
I'm sorry I scared you.
I'm sorry.
- Are you hurt? - Hmm?
- You're bleeding. - It doesn't hurt at all. I'm all right.
Where were you?
I called you earlier.
At my new job.
So you were tutoring?
No, at a café. I haven't gotten a tutoring job yet.
Do you know the thing that I really hate the most? Take a guess.
- Uh, horrible singing? - Ding!
Ignoring my phone calls.
So how can I say it?
It makes me feel abandoned.
- It really sucks. - Oh, uh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.
I wasn't talking about you, actually.
You should rest.
Um, your phone call…
So, uh, why exactly did you call? Was there something wrong earlier?
Well, I was just hoping to hear your voice.
- So next time, you should answer my call. - Hmm.
Hello, and welcome to the 44th Civil Engineering Student Association.
To kick off the new semester, the Civil Engineering…
Due to a study group meeting, I will not be…
20,000 won to attend, 50,000 won to decline.
I will attend.
START-OF-TERM PARTY!
- What's our school? - Minsong!
- Our department? - Engineering!
What's our class?
- Civil! - We are civil!
- Hey! Hey! Hey! - Civil! Engineering! Civil!
- Let me hear it! - Hey!
We are number one!
This quarter's results overseas
depend entirely on the 2022 KCON JAPAN performance.
The single showcase after KCON JAPAN will be our largest showcase ever.
We plan to expand the media showcase to the scale of a full concert.
- Of the international artists… - Doona. Lee Doona.
Hey, take some of this chaser with your shot, okay?
What's with your expression?
Hey!
LEE DOONA
That's not good enough! Let go!
Hey, if you're sorry, then drink this. Yeah? You were wrong? You're sorry?
All right. Hey, sit down.
Um, hello?
Hell-low or hell-high?
Wow. That was a bad dad joke!
Where are you? Right now I'm in the area.
Hey there, how are you?
You're the pretty chick I saw at school the other day, right?
- Come on. Give it back. - Stop it.
Come on. Stop ignoring me and say something.
- Please give it back. - Hello? Anybody there?
Hey, cut it out and give me back my phone!
- What the hell are you looking at, huh? - Hey, you!
Did he hit you?
Not yet.
How dare you put your hands on my Won-jun?
So what year are you?
Get your dirty hands off me, kid.
You think 'cause you're pretty you can do what the fuck you want?
You're starting to piss me off.
Is that right, you total dipshit? So what are you gonna do about it, huh?
You should worry more about what I'm gonna do to you.
- Hey, hey, wait. - Go for it.
Do it, then.
Huh? Huh? Go for it, chick.
Go right on ahead.
Don't cause any more trouble.
I thought you were pissed, so just hit me already, huh?
If you can't do it, stop waving that thing around.
- You think that I can't? - Just do it!
PHARMACY
Ah.
Ah!
Ah.
I don't need to drink that.
I should drink it. I'm the one who really needs it.
Hmm. Take it.
You can't go around hitting people over the head with glass bottles.
You'll get arrested immediately. All right?
He said to do it, didn't he?
Look, I don't know what your life story might be,
um, but if you need to go to anger management, uh…
There are resources available for you if you need treatment.
Why? Do you think I've been through a lot?
- Uh… uh, well… - Uh-huh?
Normally girls don't walk around the city
with glass bottles to smash people's heads in.
I wanted to have a drink with you.
I bought it from the beverage store.
Let's grab a drink, Doona.
What's stopping us?
Huh?
Oh, yay!
- Ah, how about fried chicken? - Okay, fried chicken for you.
This is gonna be so fun.
Fried chicken and beer sounds delicious.
- Wait, how many are we? - I'm literally starving now.
I can't wait.
I wasn't hungry before.
- Wait here. I'm just gonna go say hi. - Oh, sure.
Won-jun!
- Were you here for the party? - Uh-huh. You too?
Mm-hmm.
- Oh, you're with someone. - Uh, yeah.
We, uh… we live in the same co-ed house.
- She, uh... - Oh!
Lee Doona?! Is that you?
Hey, Kook Su-jin is a superfan, isn't he?
I'm a fan too.
Let's get going. I'm pretty tired.
Oh! Um, I'm sorry, but by any chance, do you drink at all?
- You can join us. - How about another time?
And why would I let a complete stranger drink with me, again?
- Cheers! - Cheers!
I'm…
Well, I'm…
I'm honestly
just a shy girl.
- Really shy, actually. - Hmm.
You're so lucky though, you know that?
I'm serious! You're lucky!
That's right!
And, yeah, like, um…
Well, I… I'm the kind of girl everyone likes, huh?
Hey, I bet he does too!
Hey, Won-jun.
Uh, you still do, right?
- Um… well, um… - Who cares if he does or doesn't?
It's not really important.
Hey, Jin-ju. We should just get married, right?
Okay, Doona, yeah, I do wanna marry you.
- Yeah, let's get married! - Let's get married!
Hey, Jin-ju, I think you might have already missed the subway train.
No, we're tying the knot!
Yeah, quiet, we have to tie the knot!
I think you missed the last train.
Hmm.
Hey.
Jin-ju, crash at my house tonight, huh?
Actually, you should just live here.
You get all of this.
- I will give you everything... - I really needed a place to stay, Doona!
Thank you!
Jin-ju, you're crazy for real.
Hey.
Wait, are you crazy?
Yeah, you must be crazy!
Hey, wake up, Jin-ju.
Are you asleep now?
DAD
Hey, why are you sleeping?
- Oh. - You're crazy.
Jin-ju, wake up. Your father's calling you right now.
- Jin-ju? - What's going on?
Oh, what should we do? We can't just let it ring.
Well, answer the phone.
It'd be really bad if a man answered.
You're a man, huh?
- Oh, he's a man! - Ah, what do I do?
Huh? Oh, no, you really shouldn't answer. Um, yes? Hello?
Oh, yes, hello, Mr. Kim?
Why yes, you're so intuitive.
I'm Lee Se-na, a friend of your daughter's.
We're in literature together.
The start-of-term party finished a little late tonight,
so she made the decision to stay here.
Oh, Jin-ju is…
She's, um, just in the shower now. Should I have her call you?
Oh, yes, everything's fine. Don't worry about her.
Oh, yes, of course. Both my parents are here in the house. Yes, sir.
I sure will. You have a great night, sir.
Wow, you were so perfect, like a total natural.
- That was awesome to see. - Cool.
You should've been an actor instead, not a pop star.
I'm going for a cigarette now.
You should go home, all right?
Go home, I said.
Uh, Yun-taek told me not to come home before 2:00.
So I will in a little.
Oh.
Hmm.
What's with your hand? It's looking pretty rough now.
What?
Ah. It's weird, but I seem to get injured every time I'm around you.
Maybe we're not meant to hang out.
She's pretty, and you know it.
Jin-ju.
Hmm. She really is.
I'm jealous of that.
Wait. Her being pretty makes you feel jealous?
No, I'm jealous of you.
You have this really great relationship with her,
'cause you've known her so long.
That's why I'm jealous of you.
It's so not fair, you know.
I have yet to know a true friend like that.
Oh! Hey, Doona, be careful.
You've had a lot to drink, remember? Ah.
I sometimes wonder how I ended up like this in life.
Oh!
You're adorable, you know that?
I almost messed up and did it.
Almost did what?
So if you can manage it, next time you should turn away.
Hmm.
Mm-mm.
Hey, Doona, be careful. You've had a lot to drink, remember?
Oh!
Ah.
MINSONG NATIONAL UNIVERSITY JOB FAIR
Uh…
I, uh… I promised washed it.
That's strange. It still has your smell on it.
I guess it's your fabric softener.
So, did you get home all right yesterday?
Doona said she didn't know when you had left this morning.
- So when did you head out? - Oh man, that's right.
I forgot to thank Doona for letting me sleep over last night,
because somebody had me in shock.
Who?
Won-jun, hey, it's me. You don't need to hide it.
I saw you guys.
You and Doona kissed. I saw it all.
Kiss? Uh, you did?
Uh-huh!
Oh, Se-hun's here. I'm over here!
- I should go. I'll see you at work, okay? - Oh.
Uh, I didn't kiss her…
But I…
I didn't kiss her.
This is a milk container.
Cosmetics are general waste.
I guess your manager did this for you. You obviously haven't had to do it before.
You sound irritated.
Is it because you're hangry?
Or is because Jin-ju rejected you?
Huh? What has she got to do with any of this? Jeez, come on.
And this is plastic.
You got rejected. Bingo.
I wasn't rejected, okay?
She thinks you and I have something going on right now.
Hmm? She does?
Why?
Because she saw us that night that, um,
on the roof,
well, uh… yeah.
Ah.
You should've set her straight.
Okay, whatever. It's not like we're together or anything, right?
Trying to explain it would just make it more awkward.
So what do we do now?
Should we just date for real, then?
Just so you know, it's very clear to me now why you don't have friends.
And what makes you say that?
Well, you have no filter when you speak. You say whatever you're thinking.
There aren't many people like that.
From what I'm seeing, you don't care what anyone thinks about you.
And you don't feel the need to hold back.
In some ways, I envy you.
Huh? What the heck?
This is also general waste.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
I do whatever the fuck I want regardless of what anyone says. So what?
Is that bad? Huh?
Uh… uh…
Ah, I get it now.
I'm alone because of my attitude, is that it?
It's all on Doona!
I can't possibly fix my career now. So what? So what?
I should just stick to selling weight-loss pills on social media?
- Is that what you think, huh? - Doona, I never said that.
I'm gonna sort the recycling however the fuck I want, okay?
Don't tell me where the fuck to put stuff, you hear?
You couldn't just keep it together.
Has it occurred to you that you brought this upon yourself?
Hey, Kooksu.
You know that girl Doona you love from Dream Sweet
or whatever they're called?
Yes! The goddess Doona! Yeah, why?
Is she going through a hard time?
I hear a lot of celebrities deal with mental illness and stuff like that.
Maybe she struggled with cyberbullying?
Oh, no way, dude!
Doona just does whatever the hell she wants to,
and that's how she is.
Yeah, she just left the band to focus on her studies for now, so I hear.
Please only pay attention to facts from now on.
- But is that a fact? - Dude, trust me.
But, hey, why you asking about my girl?
- But it's not a fact? - Wait, are you a fan?
Oh, don't be ridiculous.
I just thought about her randomly.
Yeah. I, too, have thought about her a whole lot.
In fact, I think about her all the time.
Yeah, how much is that?
What?
What? Got something to say?
Uh, mm-mm…
Wait, have you eaten yet?
Actually, I cooked way too much food for dinner just now.
If you haven't eaten, give me a minute, okay?
- Wait here. I'll bring it down to you. - Wait, don't.
- Hey. - Hmm?
Don't you know it's a rule to give notice before you bring a guest over?
I didn't exactly bring her over just now.
- So, she actually lives right below us. - Exactly!
Instead, why don't you give notice about how antisocial you are
so the poor girl can dodge you?
Pay no attention to this heartless jerk, okay?
And, uh, come visit us anytime you want to, hmm? Okay?
Can I, um… can I ask you a personal question?
Uh… and don't feel like you have to answer me.
Mm-hmm. Fire away.
Why did you quit Dream Sweet?
Maybe I haven't accomplished enough in life to get it, hmm,
but I can't imagine someone who's worked as hard as you
just giving up on it.
Sorry. You must get these kinds of questions all the time.
Actually, you're the first one to ask me.
Oh, really?
In my experience, I find that people will believe what they want to.
They don't care to know the actual truth.
But if I had to be honest…
there wasn't a reason why I quit.
I just unexpectedly…
couldn't sing at all anymore.
The end, hmm?
Do you have any change?
All right. Good luck.
Here I go…
Ah!
- Oh! - Oh! Oh!
Ah.
- Ah! Oh. - Oh. Oh.
- Ah. - Ah, seriously?! No!
Oh! Oh!
- Really? All of this? - Mm-hmm.
Hurry up. I need it!
Here you go.
Oh! Oh!
Oh!
You should've kept it together.
Now go back out there and sing. We'll talk after.
Dream Sweet, you're on in three minutes!
We're starting now!
I don't think I can sing tonight.
What do you mean you can't sing?
My anxiety is through the roof.
You're going on stage… no matter what.
Enough of your nonsense. Now, get out there.
Ten seconds!
Five seconds!
Four. Three.
Two.
Hey, Lee Doona! You really let yourself go!
Can you bite on this just once for me?
You have to make a point?
Ugh! Seriously?!
You wanna be a diva? Leave it for your solo career.
A CERTAIN BIG STAR IS SUPER RUDE
This is plagiarism!
They're obviously identical down to the composition!
Hey, you! You're gonna lose everything and end up
selling weight loss pills on social media!
Did something happen?
What's wrong with her? What's happening on stage?
Doona.
Lee Doona!
Wake up.
Lee Doona!
Whoo! I did it! Oh!
- Let's go! - Okay.
- Today was my birthday, you know. - Ah, seriously?
And I happened to make birthday seaweed soup? Wow.
You should eat better, you know?
Food makes everything better in my opinion.
Although I don't have much going on in my life,
I find that eating well can really, uh, um, boost my morale these days.
So what's the deal?
What's the story between Jin-ju and you?
Well, I think that's how things go with high-school crushes.
Like a fool, you begin to read way too much into every little detail.
First it's despair. Then you're floating in the clouds sometimes no reason.
Then you overdo it,
and things end up falling apart, right?
- You're sure she doesn't have feelings? - Yes, I'm sure, Doona.
I think you're wrong.
How do you know?
- Never mind that. You could court her. - And how would I do that?
You make her heart race.
Girls like Jin-ju wanna feel like that.
You should put her against the wall.
Just think about it. Push her up against any wall.
Then look at her and don't even say a single word to her
for ten seconds.
No, you won't need ten. Five is plenty.
And then…
What? And then what?
You come up with the next part.
I can't do everything for you, huh?
Won-Jun, you're so demanding.
You could always practice with me.
And I'll tell you
if my heart starts racing.
Uh…
Happy birthday to you.
See? I'm not good at that this at all, right?
Let's get going. It's late, and your birthday is over, hmm?
Uh, it's me. Were you already sleeping?
No.
Why? You have something to say?
Um, yeah, well, um, just so you know,
there's nothing between Doona and I, okay?
I think you had the wrong idea earlier,
um, and well, I hope that makes things more clear.
Oh yeah?
All right.
I'm glad.
Happy birthday. I'll be in touch.
