Transcript
00:00Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:27Good morning, pal.
00:29Good morning.
00:30You're wearing your comfort socks.
00:35What's up?
00:36Are you feeling stressed out?
00:39Yes.
00:40I mean, no.
00:42It feels weird that you know this about me when we're just...
00:48Friends.
00:49I was gonna say roommates.
00:51Friendly roommates?
00:54Yeah, it's weird for me too.
00:57Maybe too weird.
01:06What does that mean?
01:08It means being friends might not work for me.
01:13Kitty.
01:20You should answer her.
01:22I have to go. I'm meeting Q.
01:24Don't worry.
01:37Okay, I'm sure you and Day will figure out how to be cohabitating exes.
01:42Or not.
01:43But let's just stop talking about Day.
01:45Okay.
01:46You're the one who brought him up.
01:48Look.
01:49I can't even pretend to read Hangul until I finish this coffee.
01:53It says we do not release information about private adoptions.
01:56Which, at this point, is the only thing I know how to read in Korean.
02:00Can we please drop this Alex thing?
02:02Let's go back to talking about you and Day.
02:03Hey, Q, it's not an Alex thing.
02:05I know in my gut that Alex is my brother.
02:08Okay.
02:09Or I'm pretty sure.
02:11Maybe you should talk to your for-sure siblings about this.
02:13Yes, I want to.
02:15But I can't.
02:17Not yet.
02:18Alex needs to know first.
02:20Also, there is that minuscule chance that I am not right.
02:24Just ask him.
02:26Rip the band-aid off.
02:28Most of the school is going to be gone for Chuseok anyway,
02:30so this would be the perfect weekend to corner him.
02:33Sure, and say what exactly.
02:36He'll figure it out.
02:40And we're late.
02:41We are?
02:42Yeah, very, very late.
02:43Like super late?
02:44Oh, Professor Lee is going to kill me.
02:45I know.
02:49Chuseok is the Korean celebration of the good harvest.
02:55And it's a time to thank our ancestors for bringing us prosperity
03:00and to pay respect to those we have lost.
03:04We do that by going home.
03:07It is a very special holiday in our house
03:10because family is the most precious thing in the world,
03:13and we do not take it for granted.
03:17Enjoy your break, everyone.
03:19Have a good Chuseok.
03:20Thank you.
03:23My grandparents told me about Chuseok, but I've never had one.
03:26It's like Korean Thanksgiving?
03:28Yeah, minus the genocide.
03:30Is she actually talking to me?
03:33It's pretty much the same.
03:34You go home, eat your ass off, and argue with your relatives.
03:38I don't have any relatives here.
03:40Maybe you should use the time to study, Ms. Calvin.
03:42I have been studying.
03:44Really?
03:47I think I'm in shock.
03:52Your shock worries me.
03:54Your aggressive perkiness may have charmed your American teachers
03:57into giving you good grades,
03:59but here you'll need to put in more work.
04:05My grades suck.
04:06Living with my ex sucks.
04:08Why am I even here?
04:11Because of Mom and to find myself.
04:13Eyes on the road, kitty.
04:14Because of family.
04:15Happy Chuseok.
04:18Chuseok.
04:23How's it going?
04:24Bad.
04:25Bad.
04:26Bad and bad.
04:29I failed my lit test.
04:31I have never gotten below an A- in my entire life.
04:35I've failed at many things in my life.
04:37I've failed my driver's test.
04:39I've failed a philosophy test.
04:41I've failed a drug test.
04:44Just kidding.
04:47Failing is part of learning.
04:49You're going to be okay.
04:51Thanks.
04:53Do you have any plans for Chuseok?
04:55Nah, no family in Seoul.
04:57Yeah, me neither.
05:00We should have dinner.
05:03I mean, you should come to the dinner that I'm planning on campus
05:08for all of us expats.
05:10Like a friendsgiving.
05:12Oh, sweet.
05:13I'll be there.
05:15He's going to be there.
05:17Cool.
05:18You may have failed this,
05:20but you just aced being a great person.
05:23Thinking of others who have nowhere to go,
05:25cooking a massive feast.
05:30Cooking?
05:42Ugh, there's more than one type of soy sauce?
05:52You're seriously everywhere.
05:55You're like my very own sasaeng.
05:57What's a sasaeng?
05:58You, my very own obsessed fan.
06:01What are you even doing in a grocery store?
06:03Shouldn't you be on a yacht somewhere being rich and annoying?
06:06My dad is doing that with wife number three with her new fillers.
06:10I have decided to stay here as a favor to all the women who want a piece of me.
06:16This Chuseok.
06:17Strawberries and chocolate, I'm going to be sick.
06:19I'm sure Lulu will appreciate this.
06:21Who's Lulu?
06:23Another one of your min-hos?
06:25Cute.
06:27She's only the fastest rising popstar in the country.
06:33We've been flirting since the trainee days.
06:36She's on break from the tour for the holiday.
06:38Even K-pop stops for Chuseok.
06:45Do you even know what to do with this?
06:47I am admittedly entering new territory,
06:50but with the help of TikTok and a positive attitude,
06:53I'll manage just fine.
06:55What?
06:56I've won awards for my mashed potatoes.
06:58No, no, no.
07:00As a Korean national, I can allow it in good conscience.
07:03Let you desecrate my native cuisine like this.
07:06Hey, what?
07:08Do you want to poison your classmates?
07:10Or do you want my help?
07:13Fine, but I'm still making the mashed potatoes.
07:16I've got an entire system, don't mess it up.
07:18Just follow me.
07:26I mean...
07:32Who works on Chuseok?
07:34So what?
07:35There are over 300 hotels around the world.
07:38Do you think I'm taking a break on Chuseok?
07:40It's fine without you for three days.
07:43It's fine without me for you, too.
07:47This year, I want to spend time with my family.
07:55It's been a long time since the three of us spent time together.
07:58That's why we're together.
08:00Is this enough?
08:02Wow, it's really nice to see.
08:04This is what our school kids should look like.
08:06Han Yeol Hee.
08:09What kind of habit is that to your mom?
08:12I'm sorry.
08:16It's okay.
08:21Tell me about yourself.
08:23Is everything okay these days?
08:26Not really.
08:33Oh, right.
08:36Kitty told me that you and your mom used to kiss.
08:41I heard you know each other.
08:45Well, we were roommates, but we weren't close.
08:49Did you go to the dormitory?
08:51It was exactly a year ago.
08:53Why are you suddenly curious?
08:56You said we should spend time together.
09:01Was I the only one who needed to be quiet?
09:03Han Yeol Hee.
09:05That's enough.
09:10You know what? You're right.
09:12It's enough for me, too.
09:22Han Yeol Hee.
09:44You are angelic in the morning.
09:47Who is this from?
09:49My mother.
09:50Gifts and my love language.
09:52Madrax?
09:53Oh, Pepero.
09:55She sent it from Los Angeles,
09:57and she couldn't be here.
09:59We usually spend time together.
10:01That sucks.
10:02So she'll be alone?
10:03No.
10:04John Cho is having a thing.
10:07No, Lulu.
10:08About time.
10:11Don't touch anything.
10:13God method.
10:20You know, you were the last person that I would expect to know how to cook,
10:24or, like, do anything remotely helpful.
10:26There are these tiny, microscopic moments,
10:29and I can see why Dae is friends with you.
10:31There's an actual person in there.
10:35Don't try to get me on your side.
10:37I'm famously anti-kitty,
10:39no matter how hard Dae works to sway me.
10:42Hey, have you heard from him today?
10:45No.
10:47Hey, have you heard from him today?
10:49Is he okay?
10:50Chewsock, family and ancestor stuff.
10:54No, I haven't.
10:56It's definitely a difficult day for him.
10:59Yeah.
11:02And you?
11:05Me...
11:07What?
11:08You must be thinking about your mom, too.
11:11A lot this week.
11:14Yeah, I am.
11:17But in a good way.
11:18I can feel her all around me here.
11:22Thanks, Mina.
11:24You're welcome.
11:33Maybe I should reach out today,
11:35even though it's super awkward and I don't know what to say or how to say it.
11:39But I feel like this stuff trumps other stuff.
11:43Agreed.
11:45Gifts are always appreciated on Chuseok,
11:48even from ex-pampas.
11:50Pass me the gochugaru.
11:58What do you give the boy who cheated on you and broke your heart,
12:01but then let you live with him and now he wants to be your friend?
12:10What?
12:13Just a little bit of soy sauce.
12:15I know, I tell you every day.
12:19What's that?
12:20I was going to take it out later.
12:23Surprise!
12:25Mom's favorite.
12:27Isn't this expensive?
12:29I bought it at the department store.
12:32They sell it at the market.
12:33I just wanted to spend some money because it's mom's favorite.
12:36Why did you buy it?
12:37We haven't had it since mom passed away.
12:40You can't even eat it. It's a waste.
12:43I bought it because I thought everyone would like it.
12:45If you have money, save it and use it when you need it.
12:55Who is it?
13:00Han Yuri.
13:01Surprise! Happy Chuseok.
13:03Why didn't you tell me Yuri was coming?
13:05Daehyun didn't know I was coming either.
13:08He wanted to see me, so he stopped by.
13:15Come in.
13:21What are you doing here?
13:23I needed to escape but I had nowhere else to go.
13:25Julian is gone and you're kind of all I've got.
13:29I even stopped by and got Seol-A-Soo for your mom.
13:31What?
13:32Yeah, you must go crazy for this stuff.
13:34My mom died three years ago, Yuri.
13:39I didn't know.
13:41Of course you didn't.
13:43Seol-A-Soo
13:59Confirmed, Lulu will be at the premises at 8pm.
14:03I'm sure she will love the chocolate.
14:06The chocolate was actually for someone else.
14:09Hey, don't judge.
14:10Not all people need to be star-crossed lovers to be compatible.
14:14Like hot people, for example.
14:17We can and want to play the field.
14:21That's just because you haven't found your perfect match.
14:24I've found many, many matches.
14:26I'm just saying.
14:27I've seen the magic when people find the one.
14:33My parents both thought they found the one.
14:36My parents both thought they found the one.
14:39They were the IT couple.
14:40Beautiful young starlet.
14:43The tabloids literally called them the perfect match.
14:47Look at them now.
14:50I'm sorry.
14:52Here, try this.
15:04It's okay.
15:06It must be weird to have people know all about your family.
15:09They think they know.
15:10They don't really.
15:12That's my point.
15:15There's really only one thing that matters at the end of the day.
15:19Which is what?
15:22The truth.
15:25Yeah.
15:27You're right.
15:29Finally, some appreciation.
15:37Tonight, I'm telling Alex the truth.
15:42Well, this escalated.
15:44Wow.
15:46People are calling this chingusak.
15:47What?
15:48It's a pun on chingu, which means friend and chusak.
15:52You started a new tradition.
15:53Oh.
15:55Oh, no.
15:56No, no. Why is Professor Li here?
15:58Because he's sad and alone.
16:01He hates me.
16:02And it's mutual.
16:03Don't.
16:04And it's mutual.
16:05Don't worry.
16:06It's not like you have to sit with him.
16:10Minho.
16:11Annyeong.
16:13Hello, Madison.
16:14I wasn't expecting you to be here.
16:17Oh, my God.
16:18You cooked.
16:19Yes, but I'm not staying long.
16:21I've got a date tonight.
16:22Who's the lucky girl?
16:24Lulu?
16:25Maybe you've heard of her?
16:26Um, yeah.
16:28Aren't you nervous?
16:30Why would I be nervous?
16:31Because her fans are very picky about who she chooses to spend time with.
16:35I mean, if they don't like you.
16:42He's so moshiso.
16:44I don't know what that means, but I'd probably disagree.
16:47Yeah.
16:49Kitty.
16:51This is amazing.
16:52Welcome.
16:53I hope you're hungry.
16:56Professor Wi.
16:57I'm so glad you didn't fail to make it.
17:00Yes, well, I wasn't planning on coming,
17:02but a group of students this big requires faculty supervision.
17:05Actually, you don't count.
17:10Wait.
17:12Um, I think Minho wanted to sit with Professor Li, actually.
17:19I need you to sit with Li.
17:21That sounds like a you problem.
17:23Minho, where are you sitting?
17:26Uh, with Li.
17:28Right.
17:29Um, Alex.
17:32Thank you.
17:35How about a toast, Kitty?
17:38Okay.
17:43Thank you so much for coming, everybody.
17:46This is my first Chuseok,
17:48and from what I gather, you are not supposed to do it alone.
17:51Maybe your family is thousands of miles away, like mine.
17:55Or maybe you don't really have family.
17:57Or maybe you just really like school.
17:59No judgment.
18:02Whatever the reason, I'm grateful we all have somewhere to be today,
18:06and for this chance to honor all our ancestors.
18:10So, here's a toast.
18:13To all of those who came before us.
18:17Thanks, Mom.
18:19Wherever you are.
18:21Without you, I wouldn't be here,
18:23literally on this earth, or here, I guess.
18:26And there's nowhere else I would rather be in this moment.
18:32Cheers!
18:43Wow, that was the best meal I've ever had.
18:46Yuri, you eat so well.
18:49I was so surprised.
18:51Yeah.
18:53Oh, oh!
18:54No, no.
18:55Just a little bit.
18:57Take a little bit.
18:58Look.
19:00Like this.
19:02Like this.
19:04Like this.
19:05Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.
19:06Tap, tap, tap.
19:08Swish, swish.
19:13Oh, I really love pear.
19:15It's been a while since I had it.
19:17Try it.
19:18My brother bought this.
19:20My mom liked it.
19:23You're a good son.
19:28That's right.
19:29My son is a good son.
19:41Can you pass the japchae?
19:43Of course.
19:44Thank you.
19:46This may be my first Chuseok, but I'm making a promise to myself it will not be the last.
19:51Same.
19:52I mean, it's funny how we have to travel halfway across the world to learn about our roots.
19:56I totally relate to you.
19:58I mean, to the situation.
20:00Even though I'm half Korean, sometimes I feel like I'm zero.
20:04My dad tries, but it's not the same.
20:07And your mom?
20:10Mom passed away when I was little.
20:13There's a lot that she never got to teach me and my sisters.
20:16And a lot that I never got to ask her.
20:21Kitty, I'm sorry.
20:24I'm sure she'd be really proud of you.
20:27I am.
20:28And I'm grateful that we both bumbled our way into KISS.
20:33Yeah, what made you teach here anyway?
20:36Did you just throw a dart at a map of Korea?
20:40Not exactly.
20:43I knew someone who went here.
20:46Sort of.
20:47I'm off to fulfill my destiny.
20:50Can't wait to read about it tomorrow.
20:54Oh, wait, you're leaving?
20:55Hello.
20:56Hot date with a pop star.
20:58Laters, I think.
21:04Minho made me miss my chance to talk to Alex.
21:06So, do you have any hobbies?
21:08I do.
21:09But I am not giving up on tonight.
21:11I don't really want to talk about them.
21:13That's fine.
21:14Mm-hmm.
21:41Thank you for coming.
21:44To be honest, it was the best Chuseok ever.
21:47Happy Chuseok, pretend girlfriend.
21:50Happy Chuseok, pretend boyfriend.
21:55I'm off.
21:58Bye.
21:59Okay.
22:08Is this Ms. Kim's house?
22:10Yes, you can give it to me.
22:15Here you go.
22:16Thank you.
22:27Dae, I'm here for you always, no matter what.
22:30No one knows me better than you.
22:32Stress socks and all.
22:34XO, Kitty.
23:11Oh, no, no, no.
23:12It's happening.
23:13Have you tried them yet?
23:14Kitty made them.
23:15They're really good.
23:16It's my dad's recipe.
23:17The secret ingredient is gochujang.
23:19Oh, yeah?
23:20Yeah.
23:21Oh, yeah?
23:22Yeah.
23:23Oh, yeah?
23:24Yeah.
23:25Oh, yeah?
23:26Yeah.
23:27Oh, yeah?
23:28Yeah.
23:29Oh, yeah?
23:30Yeah.
23:31Oh, yeah?
23:32Yeah.
23:33Oh, yeah?
23:34Yeah.
23:35Oh, yeah?
23:36Yeah.
23:37Oh, yeah?
23:38Yeah.
23:39The secret ingredient is goat cheese.
23:42No, thank you.
23:44I'm in the lactose intolerant majority.
23:47It's a commonality among East Asians.
23:50I'll just have some more of Mino's tapatí.
23:52Oh, I didn't know.
23:54Because you lack attention to detail.
23:56If you paid more attention, your grades wouldn't be suffering.
24:00To be fair, my body got used to cheese.
24:03It was in everything where I grew up.
24:06How quaint.
24:09Have you spent much time abroad, Professor?
24:12I did my undergrad in the United States.
24:14Nice.
24:15Where?
24:16The New England Conservatory.
24:18Really?
24:19You study music?
24:22It was youthful hubris.
24:24It's not a practical career.
24:29I should not have chosen to teach at an international school.
24:34Western teenagers tend to forget their manners.
24:38So why did you then choose to work here?
24:42It's my alma mater.
24:47Indoor voices!
24:49Please!
24:51Could Professor Li be any meaner?
24:54Why is Alex even talking to him?
24:57This is exactly why I never had children.
25:03Excuse me.
25:07Excuse me.
25:14Oh, God.
25:17Mino?
25:21Mino, where are you?
25:25What the hell did you put in those potatoes?
25:27A lot of lactose.
25:30L-G.
25:32Oh, God.
25:34Ruby, baby, is that you?
25:37Shut up.
25:41That's Lulu.
25:42You have to get rid of her.
25:43She can't see me like this.
25:45If her fans find out, I'm done for.
25:48Do something.
25:49You owe me, Cubby.
25:50Okay, okay.
25:52But don't ruin this for me.
25:54Keep her interested.
25:55How?
25:56I don't know.
25:57You're the matchmaker.
26:00Minnie, I'm here.
26:02Hey, uh, Mino's running behind.
26:05Who are you?
26:06I'm, uh...
26:08Mino, six o'clock.
26:10That jerk double-booked me?
26:12Well, you didn't think you'd keep him all to yourself, did you?
26:15He's the hottest guy in school.
26:19He's just, he's so sexy.
26:21And the way that he...
26:24Never mind.
26:25Let me just say that he's ruined me.
26:28For other boys.
26:30And men.
26:34That's intriguing.
26:36But I refuse to be sloppy seconds.
26:39You tell Mino I'll be back at six o'clock tomorrow night.
26:43He better clear the rest of his schedule.
26:46When he has a night with me,
26:48he won't be seeing anyone else after.
26:51Okay.
27:01You're a genius.
27:03I could hug you right now.
27:05Please don't.
27:07Bye.
27:27I'm sorry.
27:30I thought Dad would stay with you.
27:33Really?
27:35I didn't.
27:37It's fine.
27:44If you want,
27:46I'm available for some quality time now.
27:51I'm tired.
27:53Then you should get some sleep.
27:59Okay.
28:08Alex, wait, wait.
28:11Tonight didn't really go the way that I planned it.
28:15There was something that I wanted to talk to you about.
28:17Something important.
28:20Okay.
28:26I had suspected for a while,
28:28but everything tonight just confirmed it.
28:31I think I know what you're going to say.
28:33You do?
28:39You haven't been very subtle, Kitty.
28:41Oh.
28:42I know what you know.
28:44Professor Lee is my father.
28:51That's why you came to teach here.
28:54He doesn't know, and I don't want him to know.
29:04My mom?
29:06Our mom and we?
29:11Our mom?
29:20My mom?
29:50My mom?
30:20I'm sorry.
30:50I'm sorry.
31:20I'm sorry.
31:50I'm sorry.
31:52I'm sorry.
31:54I'm sorry.
31:56I'm sorry.
31:58I'm sorry.
32:00I'm sorry.
32:02I'm sorry.
32:04I'm sorry.
32:06I'm sorry.
32:08I'm sorry.
32:10I'm sorry.
32:12I'm sorry.
32:14I'm sorry.
32:16I'm sorry.
