OUR MOVIE
ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL PEOPLE, PLACES,
OR MEDICAL CONDITIONS IS COINCIDENTAL.
CHILD ACTORS WERE ALWAYS SUPERVISED
AND SAFELY FILMED UNDER GUIDELINES.
Jeez, tell me about it.
Sir, I think you should speak to her.
How's it looking? Is she okay?
No, she's going all like this.
[sniffles]
[crying]
Let's keep it calm.
You say "cut" when I cry,
when I smile, when I look blank, when I look nervous. You keep saying no.
Why don't you just say what you want?
I'm sorry.
For six months, I've been getting love letters
from the guy who's been cleaning this place.
I've never even seen his face, but now I'm in love with him?
How am I supposed to believe that?
That's just totally creepy!
How am I supposed to act like I'm in love?
You're right.
That's true. A person wouldn't fall in love like that
when you've never seen him.
What kind of…
What kind of director says that?
[crying continues]
This is a secret, but I'm making this film because I don't really know.
Don't know what?
What it's like to love someone.
[♪ gentle music plays]
Let's go.
I'm ready now.
I think I understand the feeling.
EMMA
EPISODE 4
Jungwoo's running a bit late.
So is Daeum.
Ms. Go's already making moves.
She pulled Daeum for a chat.
Probably about signing her.
Who wouldn't want a star rookie like that?
Daeum doesn't need representation.
How could a rookie not need representation?
If I wanted an agency involved,
I wouldn't have cast a rookie.
But this isn't going to be her last film.
An agency like ours could really help her take off.
Don't you want to know how I've been?
It's all shoptalk with you.
I hoped you were doing well.
That's it?
Yes, that's it.
That kind of hurts.
Yes, I actually feel hurt.
I guess I can still feel hurt when it comes to you.
We're not in a place where we tell each other everything anymore.
I was hoping you'd ask me
how my marriage was,
after the way we ended.
But all you can say is you hoped I was well?
You're like a grease stain
that I can't scrub off from the bottom of my heart.
Let's talk later.
What about you?
Am I still at the bottom of your heart?
What are you doing?
I found many great replacements, but they're never enough.
I had to know if going back to the original would finally satisfy me.
[♪ gentle music plays]
Let's just focus on our movie.
That's all there is between us now.
Doors are opening.
Excuse me. You're Lee Daeum, right?
Hello, Mr. Kim.
Nice to meet you.
Yes.
Where are you heading? We have matters to attend to.
Ah.
[both chuckle]
Let's go upstairs.
Doors are opening.
Ah.
I see you've come together.
Hello, Ms. Chae.
Doors are closing.
Mr. Lee said something came up.
Sorry, but we'll have to do this another time.
Why are you apologizing when he's the one who left?
Daeum?
[stutters] Yes, another time.
Yes, another time.
We'll talk later too, Jungwoo.
Take care.
[line ringing]
Mr. Lee? This is Daeum.
I have something to tell you.
I'll come to you.
Mr. Lee.
-Hello. -Hello.
What did you want to talk about?
Sorry about canceling last minute.
Something just… came up.
Something important enough to blow off three people?
I had an important meeting here.
Oh. [chuckles]
I see.
So, what did you want to talk about?
[alarm ringing]
Oh.
TIME TO EAT
I'm hungry. How about we eat first?
That again. What is it?
-Pardon? -That alarm. What's it for?
Why set one just to eat? It's not like it's meds.
Food is just as important as meds for me.
Uh…
To put it simply, I heard that if I skip a meal,
I could die.
What does that mean?
The thing is…
my body can't absorb nutrients like most people's,
so I need to eat a lot, often, and at regular times
to get more nutrients.
If I go too long without food, I could go into shock,
or if it's bad enough, I could die.
Can you get us something to eat, Junbyung?
Okay.
KIM JUNGWOO
MISSED CALL: KIM JUNGWOO MISSED CALL: KIM JUNGWOO
[♪ wistful music plays]
Why are we at the playground?
[grunting]
I don't think that'll help your digestion.
Hmm?
[sighs]
Something you want to say?
[clears throat]
Well…
I really hope you don't get angry with what I'm about to say,
but it was my fault, so I totally understand if you do. [clears throat]
It's okay, just tell me.
[clears throat, coughs]
I went to Seoyoung's rehearsal studio and had a seizure,
so she kept people from seeing me
and took me to the hospital.
I'm sorry!
Seizure? You had a seizure?
-Yes. -Are you all right now?
Look at me.
You seem all right.
Of course, I am! That's why I went through the test shoot…
and all, yes.
As long as you're okay.
What?
Are you surprised I didn't yell at you?
Feeling relieved now?
You just broke the first clause of our confidentiality agreement.
Actually, Seoyoung doesn't know what my condition is or how serious it is.
So I didn't exactly break the rule…
I'm really sorry.
Thanks for being honest with me.
You should always ask for help in that kind of situation.
It's actually a good thing Seoyoung was there.
Mr. Lee.
You launched Seoyoung's career, right?
What was she like back then?
Well…
She's a great actress who taught me something I didn't know very well.
Mmm.
Then, what kind of person is Seoyoung to you?
To a director, it doesn't matter what kind of person an actor is.
But you're working together. How can that not matter?
I mean, who they are as an actor matters more than who they are as a person.
You make things sound so complicated.
To me, though,
you're a good person.
I'm not sure about that.
I'm very good at reading people.
Trust me.
Her name is Lee Daeum. It's still under embargo.
We get promo material for a rookie actress,
and you get Chae Seoyoung and Kim Jungwoo.
You can't deny that's an amazing deal.
Okay. I'll call you back.
[Seungwon sighs]
Why'd you bail on the actor meeting and double my workload?
I told you, something came up.
What's up with you?
LOVE IN WHITE PHOTO SHOOT & INTERVIEW PLAN
[Seungwon] A photo shoot.
With the three leads.
Isn't this too soon? They've barely even met.
We can do it after we wrap up filming.
We've got to get things done while we can.
Who knows how much time we'll have after the movie's done?
Even getting ready for the table read is a lot for Daeum right now.
Everything's new to her.
She's new for the audience, too, huh?
Don't you think we should introduce her first?
Otherwise, who's going to care?
We can't do that.
Take her off all non-filming engagements.
Director Lee.
You forget I'm not exactly someone who needs permission for this.
In that case…
could you push the schedule a little, sir?
[clears throat] The reason being?
Well…
You know, to work the mystery angle.
Build intrigue.
You said it yourself, she's new to the audience.
Keep her hidden for a bit longer.
We make people curious about who she is
then make a bombshell reveal for a bigger impact.
Go on.
Let's not kill the hype now.
We wait and drop a beautiful photo shoot
at the perfect moment.
Bam.
Then, the crowd will go…
Bam. They'll erupt.
Hmm. You might be onto something.
How about we add to that?
A photo shoot with all three leads plus the director.
And I decide when it'll be the perfect time for that.
Why me?
I hate to say it,
but you're good-looking.
Or we can just shoot it tomorrow.
No, no. I think it's a fine idea.
So we roll with the mystery angle for Lee Daeum starting tomorrow.
Okay.
I'm off.
-Goodbye, sir. -Goodbye.
-Take care. -Thanks.
[♪ melancholy indie-folk song plays]
Oh, I like this headline.
-The one below that too. -Okay.
We should plaster some question marks there.
You know how people read quickly on their phones nowadays?
How could they write something like this?
Why? It's not like they're wrong.
The headline's pretty good.
Aren't you angry?
It's not worth getting angry over.
Daeum's going to be the lead instead of Chae Seoyoung.
She's the lead! The lead!
She's supposed to keep a low profile so her face stays hidden.
Okay.
Hey, you can't post Daeum's photos online, okay?
ROOKIE SENSATION LEE DAEUM OUSTS CHAE SEOYOUNG
Jeez, this is a huge honor for our family.
I'm not from this family, though.
ROOKIE SENSATION LEE DAEUM OUSTS CHAE SEOYOUNG
[♪ song continues]
[song ends]
Overly experimental.
Who asked you for a review?
Why are you always trying to invent new dishes?
Because this is my restaurant,
and I'm the chef?
What's with the weird look?
You know…
Are you…
[groans]
No, never mind. You've got your life together now.
Actually, I haven't sorted out my life yet.
Why? What is it?
Let me ask you a favor.
You're asking me for a favor?
Your patient is here.
Dad.
Dad?
Dad, do you know what a table read is?
It's like rehearsing.
It's when everyone in the movie meets up to read through the script, act together,
and look into each other's eyes like this. See?
Something like that.
And it just so happens to be tomorrow!
So now I'm all jittery and excited and everything.
I'm seriously freaking out.
[sighs]
So are you happy now?
Yes.
So happy I could die.
Sorry.
So you know you should be sorry.
-I know. -If you do know,
then how could you be so reckless?
I'm scared, too,
that I'll have another seizure
in a room full of people who are there to watch me.
That I'll ruin everything and lose myself in the process.
You listen to me. I'm not letting you end up like that.
Do you understand?
-If you won't stop on your own-- -Dad…
You're taking your life way too lightly!
What kind of father would stand by while his daughter walks off a cliff?
Daeum.
[♪ gentle music plays]
Daeum.
The clinical trial we're preparing right now
is worth getting our hopes up.
So if you can just hang on a little longer…
Is that really for me, though?
[sighs]
-Daeum. -Yeah?
What if I hang on and on and on,
but it fails like everything else before?
[sighs]
You know this.
Dad…
I'm dying.
But you keep denying that.
Do you know how scared and hurt I feel every time you do?
Let's just do a full checkup first, okay?
Okay.
[machine whirs]
Just as you're running out of time,
so is your dad. You know that, right?
Doc,
I asked you to smile when you say stuff like that.
[chuckles]
Right. So, the shoot will be about three months long?
Yes.
I'm upping your dose.
You might feel a bit more foggy,
but it'll help you function better out there.
Foggy?
That's not good.
But seriously, how does a kid like you
end up with the lead role, just like that?
[chuckles]
[clears throat]
You'll have to watch your own movie in a theater, no?
Whether it's a year
or a month from now…
hang in there and try to live no matter what.
I'll think of other plans, too.
Thank you, Doc.
[phone chimes]
BU SEUNGWON
YOU WERE RIGHT
THAT OLD-SCHOOL MYSTERY ANGLE TOTALLY STIRRED THINGS UP
PEOPLE ARE DYING TO FIND OUT WHO SHE IS
WHO IS LEE DAEUM? THE BIRTH OF A ROOKIE
THE ENTRANCE OF A ROOKIE WHO OUTSHONE CHAE SEOYOUNG
A table read means all the actors and crew will be there.
My baby's got to steal the show.
-Can't I just do it? -No way!
Oh, I love it.
-[in English] Good! -Good!
[in Korean] Ta-da!
The finishing touch is the most important.
-[Daeum mutters] -[coos]
-Isn't this cute? -It's so adorable!
-It's not sticky, right? -No.
It feels super smooth.
Give me that.
Keep reapplying it.
You need to do it regularly to really block UV rays.
-Can I take this with me? -Of course, you can!
Hooray!
Now, hold still while I do your eyebrows.
Wait, I have a question.
Yes, ask away, milady.
Remember in high school when you kissed someone on the roof here?
Keep it down! My mom can hear us!
[Gyoyeong's mom] You're busted!
She's kidding!
It wasn't even a kiss, okay? It was like lips bumping.
Whatever, your lips touched. A kiss is still a kiss.
What's your deal? So what?
Did you do it because you wanted to?
Or did you just do it without knowing what was going on?
So there's no guy, but you want to kiss someone?
Or wait, maybe you're feeling curious because there is someone?
Is that it, huh?
-You got a guy you want to kiss? -No, it's not like that!
There's a kiss scene in the script, that's all.
You don't even know what you're talking about.
Your first kiss is going to be for a movie?
Is there something you can do before that?
-See you later! -Okay!
Feels like I'm sending a baby out into the world.
-Oh. -[♪ upbeat pop song plays]
Hello? This is Lee Daeum.
Hi, I've sent a gift over to your place.
A gift?
What did you send me?
[Jeha] Yes, it's him.
He'll be working as your manager until the movie's released.
Let him drive you from now on. And today, of course.
See you later.
Hello.
So you're my gift?
[laughs]
Yes, I'm Lim Junbyung. And I'm your gift personified.
What about your restaurant?
[clears throat]
I'm on a kind of sabbatical.
I wanted to take on a new challenge.
Please, get in.
You can't be late for your first read.
[Gyoyeong] Take care out there!
If you're thirsty, please open the cooler next to you.
Ah…
I didn't know what you'd like, so I brought everything, ma'am.
You don't have to be so formal with me.
Everything feels uncomfortable right now,
so if you could at least talk to me casually,
I think I'd feel better.
Well, we can't have our superstar feeling uncomfortable.
I wanted to ask.
Is it normal for a director to go out of his way like this
for an actress that doesn't even have a manager?
I'm not sure. This is my first time too,
and Jeha's the only director I know.
Man, why am I so nervous?
There's a calming pill in there. Could you please pass me one?
I mean, can you get me one?
Oh, yes, of course.
[clears throat]
-Here you go, sir. -Great, thank you.
Jeha never asks for favors, but he did this time, ma'am.
I mean, not ma'am.
So you're doing him a favor now?
It was always my dream to be a movie star's manager.
[chuckles]
A movie star?
I hate to break it to you, but I'm not a movie star.
But to me, Ms. Daeum,
you're my first actress and my first movie star.
[chuckles]
[♪ song continues]
LOVE IN WHITE TABLE READ
LEE DAEUM, LEE JEHA
-Director. -Hello.
Are we all going out to eat after this?
-Good morning. -Hi.
-Hello, sir! -Hello, sir!
How's the bookstore set looking?
-We've just started building it. -Okay.
JUST EVEN BEING TOGETHER MAKES ME HAPPY
Your seat's over there, Daeum.
There's a pencil case in here.
I saw a lot of actors taking notes and highlighting stuff.
There's also water and some cough drops.
Hello, I'm Lim Junbyung, Lee Daeum's manager.
Great to meet you.
Junbyung. Can we talk for a second?
Who told you to be a real manager?
What, you want me to be a fake one?
Yes, be a fake one.
I asked you to keep the press and agencies away,
since everyone's curious about this mysterious rookie,
not for you to be an actual manager.
Don't worry about that.
No one's laying a finger on her as long as I'm there.
That's all?
Man, you really need to chill.
You've been a jerk since forever. [clicks tongue, mutters]
That's not what I meant.
-Hello. -Hello.
I'm Lee Daeum, playing the role of Gyuwon.
So you're my daughter.
[chuckles] I look forward to working with you.
-Hello! -Hello.
-Hello.
So it's really you.
It's been a while, Jaein. Great to see you again.
[sighs]
You took a leave from school and just disappeared.
Now you show up like this?
As the lead? Out of nowhere?
[chuckles]
It's crazy, right?
I just got lucky.
-[onlooker] Hello. -[Jungwoo] Hello.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
You look nice today, Daeum.
-Hi, Jaein. -Hello.
We're counting on you, Seoyoung.
Who else can I count on?
Certainly not Lee Jeha or a complete rookie.
-You should trust them. -What?
I do respect that you came all the way here
by not trusting anyone,
but how about you trust those two for just this movie?
[sighs]
You should try being a producer sometime.
Then you'd understand.
I feel so alone.
Me too.
I feel so alone too.
Everyone's alone in this world.
"Hyunsang browses through the bookstore then pulls out a book."
"Hello!
Is there a book you're looking for?"
Hyunsang is two steps in front of you, not across the street.
[stammers]
I thought I had to speak up so everyone in the room could hear me.
Okay, let's try again.
"Hello. Is there a book you're looking for?"
"Are you…
still waiting?
Gyuwon.
Let's not wait anymore."
I guess that kind of acting only comes with time, huh?
Who are you, anyway?
-Shh. -Oh, right.
"And if I tell you?
Are you going to run up there like that
to cry and beg?
Aren't you dying soon?
Honestly, that's low even for you."
"Gyuwon impulsively slaps Junghwa.
Junghwa is baffled."
"Never mind.
You're so miserable, it's not worth the fuss."
[sniffles]
Thank you.
Let's move on to the next scene.
"Don't say things you don't mean, Hyunsang.
Just be honest.
You're…
You're fed up…
You're fed up… with me being sick, right?
Y-You're fed up with me being sick, right?"
I'm sorry, Mr. Lee.
It's fine, go on.
"You're f-fed up with me being sick, right?
Then just leave!
Get the hell out! Go!"
Let's move on from this scene.
Let's move on.
Daeum?
Yes, Ms. Chae?
Good job today.
No, I should've been better.
You were fine, really.
Thank you.
I wanted to ask…
did you see that day?
Sorry?
Oh.
If you didn't see, never mind.
If you're pretending you didn't, thank you.
If you're really curious…
No, I'm not curious.
Ah.
Great work today, Ms. Chae.
Thank you for today. That was great.
It must've been tough writing this script.
No, it was fine.
How's your health?
Are you done with chemo?
It's like I've never been sick.
Funny how life works.
I didn't think I'd be in this movie again.
Right.
I'm counting on your help.
I keep thinking about Director Lee Duyoung.
Thank you.
I should be thanking you.
I really wanted you to be in this.
Are you…
really all right with this?
With what?
Nothing, I should get going.
Okay. I'll see you on set, then.
Jeha.
You don't…
have to push yourself too hard, you know?
Even if you just let it be,
Lee Duyoung is just Lee Duyoung,
and Lee Jeha is still Lee Jeha.
[stammers]
Okay, I'm really going now.
I've been looking for you. Where have you been?
[stammers]
I was worried that my manager was waiting for too long,
so I went down to tell him to take a break.
You were great.
I've been practicing as much as I could, but I was too nervous.
You were entirely surrounded by respected veteran actors in this room.
It'd be strange not to be nervous.
Still, I messed up.
Messed up or held back?
-Pardon? -[chuckles] That's how it looked to me.
You wanted to do it so perfectly
you couldn't bear to fake even a single line
from what I saw.
I guess I didn't analyze my character enough.
I can help you with that.
We're about to fall in love, hate, and regret each other on-screen,
so let's help each other out.
Thank you, Mr. Kim.
You're still here.
Uh, I thought we should talk to each other a bit more.
Ah.
Please, sit.
Actually,
I'd prefer it if you two didn't talk to each other too much.
Well, of course. I know your directing style.
I prefer emotions that come out naturally on set
over anything too rehearsed or practiced.
I understand what you mean.
I'll get going now.
Bye, Daeum.
Good night, Mr. Kim.
Where do you think you're going?
Sorry?
And this too.
She's in shock and barely breathing.
She can't just shed one perfect little tear.
I'll have to fix this.
Can you try Scene 109 again?
"You're tired of me being sick, right?"
Let me try again.
"You're tired of me being sick, right?"
Why are you saying it like that?
Why do you keep trailing off at the end?
Because I don't understand.
Mmm, Gyuwon's in so much pain,
not because she's sick, but more so because she can't see him anymore.
But the direction says "like it's no big deal,"
and I can't understand it.
(LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL)
Why should Gyuwon love Hyunsang? There's no reason for her to love him.
"Like it's no big deal" is correct here.
The man talked big, like he'd always be there,
but ended up betraying her.
And Gyuwon is sick
and all alone.
That doesn't feel real at all.
Everything just feels cold and cruel.
Didn't you say you wanted realism?
Are you sure this is realism?
Like I told you last time,
this may look like a romance,
but love is the last thing this film needs.
I don't know why you'd say "need" when it comes to love.
The world isn't all hearts and roses.
Hearts and roses?
Some people chase the fantasy of love, only to get stabbed in the back
and end up completely alone.
[♪ pensive music plays]
[phone buzzing]
Hello?
Yes, I forgot to say something earlier.
Mr. Lee, it's 11 p.m.
Don't you think it's too harsh to tell me off this late?
I'm not going to tell you off.
Just telling you to only rehearse in our scheduled readings.
Don't meet anyone separately, except Seoyoung.
Uh, but I have the most scenes with Jungwoo.
And what if he finds out you're sick?
Oh.
Okay.
Okay, then. Good night.
How about Park Seungyeon for the Steadicam?
Oh, you haven't heard?
Seungyeon passed away two years ago. The cancer came back.
You've been hiding away from the scene for too long.
Well, important people like him only work when it really matters.
Oh, of course.

Hey, you're here.
You know Ms. Kim Jinyeo quite well, right?
[exhales]
You have to really watch out for this one.
-Who are you? -I'm Lim Junbyung.
-Pardon? -I'm Ms. Lee's manager, Lim Junbyung.
[♪ whimsical music plays]
Ah. [chuckles]
If you're family, you shouldn't do business together.
-Daeum's in there, right? -Yes.
I'm actually the CEO of Beyond Entertainment.
-Nice to meet you. -Yes.
Ms. Lee's resting right now.
Everything here is to help with that.
Move if you're not going to help.
You can't go in.
-You can't. No. -Come on! I said move!
-For crying out loud! -You can't go in.
Goodness! Daeum!
Hello.
It's so great to see you.
Would you mind letting me in?
[music ends]
AT THE END OF US
What's all this, Ms. Go?
After this movie,
they're all scripts you should look at for your next project!
As I told you last time--
I figured I should at least show you what I can do.
I appreciate the gesture, but I can't.
I can make you the next Chae Seoyoung.
No, even a bigger star than her.
I already
have a great manager over there, actually.
Daeum!
It's hard out there for an actress to survive on her own.
Wow, talk about clingy.
That little…
He means the rice cake.
Yes, this honey rice cake is really clinging to my mouth.
It must've been out too long and gone bad.
Why those…
[chuckles]
-[Junbyung] Take care now. -[Daeum] Goodbye.
This book looks a little weird.
Check these out. And these…
There are all kinds of genres here.
And all the big directors and writers.
I'm not interested.
Not even a little?
Even if I were, I couldn't do any of it.
Right. I'm sorry.
-I got ahead of myself. -[chuckles]
I'm going to head out for a bit.
Where to?
There's someone I really want to meet.
I'm sorry for showing up like this.
About Love in White…
My father didn't write it, did he?
You knew, didn't you?
Why don't you take a seat?
Why tell me this now
after all this time?
[object smashes]
Hold on.
-Gosh. -[Daeum] I'm so sorry.
-[Jinyeo] Come here. -[Daeum] No, I'm fine.
I have a first aid kit somewhere.
[Daeum stammers]
She was the lead in the original,
so I just came by to meet her, that's all.
Mr. Lee.
Let go.
[♪ dramatic music plays]
Why are you here?
Why are you being like this?
Why are you so rude to Ms. Kim?
You heard everything.
You said you looked me up.
All the information you need would've been there.
Why were you even eavesdropping?
I wasn't trying to!
I couldn't help overhearing it.
Are you leaving without apologizing?
More like I'm leaving without getting an apology.
Daeum!
Don't go in there.
I left in such a rush. I should at least say goodbye.
Sorry to put you in an awkward spot, but I don't want you to go back in there.
[♪ music continues]
[sighs]
This is driving me insane.
I…
I don't even know what I heard back there…
so please don't go insane over it.
Since I know your secret, could you keep one of mine?
Your secret?
Everyone thinks Lee Duyoung wrote Love in White…
but I don't think he wrote it.
-What? -[chuckles]
I don't even know what I'm feeling. Ashamed, foolish…
That's why I'm making this film.
To return Love in White to its real writer…
in a way that…
as many people as possible will know the truth.
PAINKILLER
Our brains
can't tell the difference…
between emotional pain and physical pain.
[♪ melancholy music plays]
So please take this today, okay?
Good night.
Ah…
You should take this with warm water.
[chuckles] And…
you need to sleep well, okay?
Got it?
Promise?
Hmm?
Okay.
[♪ music continues]
LOCATION PROPOSAL FOR LOVE IN WHITE
What's this?
That spot looked great.
They're even offering funding too.
WOLYEONG-GYO BRIDGE
I don't think we're low on budget.
We're always low on budget, man.
Good spot or not, I don't want to add unnecessary travel.
It'll just stretch the schedule.
That's strange.
Extra shoot days are my problem, as the producer.
Anyway, fine.
Nice weather we have today.
Now, let us proceed with a bow
to the spirits of heaven and earth,
praying for the safe shoot as well as the health and well-being
of our cast and crew.
We'd like to invite Mr. Kim Hyuncheol,
who was a part of this movie's original history.
[♪ gentle music plays]
LOVE IN WHITE
Closer together, please!
Get ready. One, two, three.
[shutter clicking]
You don't have to see me out.
-Go back in. -Goodbye.
Keep it up!
-Don't you think this is cute? -[laughing]
Isn't this pig just too cute?
-Isn't it? -Yes, it's so cute.
-We can't have it hurting people. -Is it over?
-I think it's over. Right? -[laughs]
-I brought it here yesterday. -Really?
I prepared everything.
-Wow. -How did you manage that?
-It was nothing. -No way.
Were you two able to greet the others?
-We're eating pork today. -Isn't that a bit cruel?
You canceled last time, so it's on you to reschedule.
-We'll be seeing each other a lot, so… -Why not today?
It's a chance to make it up to us.
[liquid pouring]
Mr. Lee doesn't drink.
[Jungwoo] That's rare for a director.
He said that in our last film together, don't you remember?
I was too scared to even go near him back then.
Daeum doesn't drink either.
Ah.
I noticed you two seem pretty close.
Like you know each other very well.
-No-- -We are close.
He cast me when I was a total nobody, so I've been trying hard to get close.
Rookie energy and all!
Okay. Cheers.
Mr. Lee.
Don't you think Gyuwon's story is too tragic?
She's young and beautiful
but has to die after losing the man she loves.
Everyone dies eventually.
I don't think it's such a tragedy if you live the life you have meaningfully.
Even the love we think will last forever…
eventually fades, doesn't it?
Got any other wine? This one's too dry.
I don't know. Someone drank all the sweet ones recently.
Are you sure you don't want some, Daeum?
I'm fine. Just this is enough.
Are you sick or something?
Sorry?
I was just wondering.
One glass should be fine, no?
[Jungwoo] Daeum, have you seen the original film?
Of course.
I cry every single time I watch it.
Oh. Hey, you're just like me.
So do I. It gets me every time.
You two seem to click.
Mr. Lee, how do they look in a two-shot?
They look good together.
Seoyoung and I…
we're actually seeing each other.
Oh.
[chuckling] Wow!
Congratulations.
Yes, that's something to celebrate.
It's stuffy in here, I need some fresh air.
The terrace is over there.
[chuckles]
Well, that killed the mood fast.
When did it start?
Right after the divorce.
Why are you asking if Daeum is sick?
I just thought it was odd for someone her age not to drink a single drop.
It's even weirder if you think I had some ulterior motive asking that.
-I heard you took her to the hospital. -Yeah.
I didn't think she'd tell you.
That's surprising.
I guess she tells you everything.
She said she wasn't feeling well that day.
She's a bit anemic too.
Just…
Nothing you need to worry about.
You really care about Daeum, huh?
I just need her.
That's all.
Have a good night.
Mr. Lee.
Yes?
You know…
Is it possible
to kiss someone…
when you don't love them?
Or rather, when you're not even sure…
if what you're feeling
is love?
That's what Hyunsang does to Gyuwon.
Oh.
Write down whatever you don't get. I'll explain it to you later.
It's a good question.
You should use me, mmm,
as much as you need like this.
Wow.
Mmm.
What?
Why are you looking at me like that?
Have a good night.
Okay.
[Seoyoung] Why didn't you just punch Jeha?
It's pouring outside. Stay the night.
Why not invite the press, too?
Saying that to your costar
and the director we're stuck with for the next three months?
Do you have any common sense?
Or basic decency?
They were going to find out anyway. No big deal. Work's work.
It's a big deal because it interferes with my work!
You keep looking at him.
[sighs]
That's why I said it. I wanted you to know I was upset.
I thought we were done talking about that when I joined this movie.
I guess not.
I wasn't.
I'm sorry.
This won't happen again.
[♪ melancholy pop song plays]
[humming]
[doorbell rings]
Ding-dong!
Stay there, I'll head down.
Daeum.
How did you know I lived here?
Your friend is my manager after all.
Did you forget?
Are you okay?
Want to step outside?
Just for a moment.
Are you out of your mind?
Don't you know what'll happen if you catch a cold?
I'll be fine if I shower right away!
[exclaims]
This feels amazing!
Why do you keep going out in the rain?
Stop it.
I figured
you'd never join me…
but you really are uptight.
This feels so good, though.
Did you walk from home in the rain?
No. I had an umbrella, too.
I was only in the rain for about 10 seconds.
What, you think I've been out here soaking wet for an hour?
Let's go. I'll take you home.
So this is what it felt like.
My mom showed me
how to play in the rain
when I was terrified, like you are right now.
What a low blow, bringing up your mom.
You're like a person made of concrete.
Let's forget all the pressure for just a minute.
Just one minute.
Trust me.
It really does feel amazing.
It better be.
[♪ song continues]
[Daeum laughs]
One minute's up.
That was too short.
Such a shame.
You really counted to the second, huh?
You know what? It just feels too unfair.
Scene 30.
"The two share a soft kiss."
You told me to use you.
[♪ song continues]
That's it. Daeum's not leaving the hospital anymore. Got it?
Wow, Ms. Go. You're full of energy this morning--
Help me sign Lee Daeum.
[Seungwon] It's better for you not to sign Daeum.
Who are you?
[Seoyoung] What exactly is wrong with Daeum?
CAN YOU LEAVE ME SOME TIME? I WANT TO CHOOSE MY OWN ENDING.
[Daeum] I honestly don't know how to do that.
I understand how my dad feels,
but I can't live how he wants me to.
[Dr. Lee] Is it fun making a terminal patient play a terminal character?
Is this how all movies are?
