00:00Meet Seoul Won, your average high school girl, except she's got a major crush on her ridiculously tall neighbor, Cha Hyun.
00:07We're talking legs for days, people.
00:09Seoul Won is, well, not so blessed in the height department, but that doesn't stop her from trying to catch his eye every single day.
00:16Her daily routine? Begging Cha Hyun to let her bike to school with him.
00:21He always says no, mind you, but Seoul's persistence is unmatched.
00:25She just tags along anyway. Surprisingly, he never gets mad.
00:28Then comes the big day, they both transfer to a new high school, and bam, same class.
00:34Seoul Ai seizes the opportunity, mustering all her courage to confess her feelings.
00:38I like you, Cha Hyun. She blurts out.
00:41His response? A predictable letdown.
00:44But Seoul Won is undeterred. I'll keep pursuing you.
00:47She declares, setting the stage for some serious high school shenanigans.
00:51From then on, it's a constant stream of attention, grabbing attempts.
00:55Most of which backfire hilariously.
00:57Picture this.
00:59Seoul Ai's clinging the stairs, sees Cha Hyun, yells his name excitedly, and promptly drops a bucket of water, which he narrowly avoids.
01:07Smooth, right?
01:09In class, she's copying someone else's homework.
01:12We've all been there when Cha Hyun walks in.
01:14Trying to impress him, she loudly proclaims,
01:17This homework is so easy, right?
01:18Only problem?
01:19She bombs the assignment, scoring a measly 35%, and gets called to the teacher's office.
01:25With Cha Hyun as a witness.
01:27Ouch.
01:28Naturally, Cha Hyun, being the handsome and intelligent guy he is, has a flock of girls vying for his attention.
01:34Seoul Ai, feeling inadequate in both looks and academics, can only seethe with jealousy.
01:40Determined to win him over, Seoul Ai wakes up at the crack of dawn, to prepare a special breakfast for Cha Hyun.
01:46She waits and waits, eventually dozing off on a bench.
01:49Cha Hyun, spotting her asleep, doesn't even bother waking her up, just hops on his bike and leaves.
01:55Cold, Cha Hyun, cold.
01:58Inspiration strikes during literature class, when the teacher discusses a famous love letter.
02:03Seoul One decides to write Cha Hyun, a heartfelt letter of her own.
02:06Except, writing isn't exactly her forte.
02:09Luckily, a classmate, a self-proclaimed love letter expert, offers to coach her.
02:14After a night of intense tutoring, Seoul One finally crafts the perfect letter.
02:19The next morning, she's practicing her delivery, when another boy suddenly appears.
02:23He's a new student, Ji Hwan.
02:26And Seoul Ai gets tasked with delivering his love letter to the class president.
02:29Talk about a twist.
02:31While delivering the letter, some older bullies try to steal it.
02:34Cha Hyun, hearing the commotion, rushes to Seoul One's rescue.
02:38Just as things escalate, a teacher arrives, and Cha Hyun pulls Seoul Ai away before they get in trouble.
02:43Later, during evening study hall, everyone's diligently working.
02:47Except Seoul One, who's busy writing another love letter to Cha Hyun.
02:51Busted by the teacher, her letter is read aloud to the entire class.
02:55Mortified?
02:56Absolutely.
02:58Cha Hyun, unable to bear the cringe, objects, claiming the teacher is violating her privacy.
03:03This act of defiance lands him at the back of the classroom, but the teacher continues reading the letter.
03:08Thinking fast, the class turns the letter into a song, singing in unison to save Seoul Ai from further embarrassment.
03:15The result?
03:16The whole class gets detention.
03:18And get this.
03:19Cha Hyun, the top student in the school, can't even write his detention slip.
03:24So Seoul One, ever the helpful Seoul, tries to offer assistance with the detention slip.
03:29But Cha Hyun, predictably, refuses.
03:32This girl is persistent though.
03:33Even though she's running late for school, she waits for Cha Hyun at the gate.
03:37Seeing him makes her day, and she's practically beaming as they walk to school together.
03:42Later, the gang feels the academic pressure, and decides to unwind with some karaoke.
03:47Now, Cha Hyun is the studious type.
03:50So even at karaoke, he's got his nose in a book.
03:53Meanwhile, the other four are like a switch, has been flipped, belting out tunes, and dancing like no one's watching.
04:00Even Cha Hyun seems a bit flustered by the energy.
04:03And he keeps glancing at Seoul One, almost mesmerized.
04:07It turns out their new friend, the swimmer, skip practice to join the karaoke fun.
04:12As they leave, disaster strikes.
04:15Seoul Ai's bike is gone.
04:16And to make matters worse, a school monitor is approaching.
04:19Ji Hwan, the swimmer, panics and abandons his bike for getting to lock it.
04:24While Seoul Ai resigns herself to the loss of her wheels,
04:26the group scatters, running home as their lives depend on it.
04:30Seoul One narrowly avoids a scolding from her mom about the missing bike.
04:34But surprisingly, she's not too upset.
04:36Why?
04:37Because now she has an excuse to get a ride with Cha Hyun.
04:40Except, the next morning, Cha Hyun just leaves without her, not saying a word.
04:46Seoul Ai's stuck walking to school.
04:48Luckily, the swimmer comes to her rescue, offering her a ride.
04:51In class, the teacher praises Cha Hyun's riding assignment, calling it exceptional.
04:56He then hands it to Seoul One, and asks her to read it aloud.
04:59Seoul One is ecstatic.
05:01A chance to read her crush's work to the entire class?
05:04Yes, please.
05:05Cha Hyun, however, doesn't share her enthusiasm.
05:08He looks uncomfortable as Seoul One, oblivious to his discomfort, reads with gusto.
05:13The essay is about a childhood memory of getting lost, and the brief time he spent with his father.
05:18It reveals that Cha Hyun's father is often busy, and doesn't have much time for him.
05:22This somber mood lingers as they walk home.
05:25Despite Seoul One's attempts to lighten the mood, Cha Hyun is withdrawn, eventually leaving her,
05:30and walking alone to the bridge where his father found him that day.
05:33He misses his dad.
05:35Later, the friends go to cheer on the swimmer at his competition.
05:38Despite his best efforts, he comes in second, likely due to the shoulder injury he sustained
05:43during their karaoke escapade.
05:44He's understandably disappointed during the interview, but his friends rally around him,
05:49offering words of encouragement.
05:51Their support cheers him up, considerably.
05:53Two of the friends have to leave, but Seoul One stays behind to congratulate him properly.
05:58The swimmer, touched by her gesture, gives her his silver medal in exchange for her cheering
06:02banner, and invites her to dinner.
06:04But today is the anniversary of Cha Hyun's father's death, so Seoul One declines, rushing to
06:10be with him instead.
06:10However, when she gets there, Cha Hyun's hurtful words upset her, and she storms back home.
06:17It turns out Cha Hyun's mother, who lives abroad, was supposed to return for the anniversary,
06:21but his younger sibling fell seriously ill, preventing them from traveling.
06:26Seoul One's parents, concerned about Cha Hyun, ask her to take him some health supplements
06:30after dinner.
06:31Seoul One's anger has subsided by now, and when she enters Cha Hyun's house, she finds him
06:36asleep on the sofa, while watching over him.
06:39She realizes he has a high fever.
06:41With no one else to care for him, Seoul One decides to stay, and nurse him back to health.
06:46Seoul One gazes at Cha Hyun, lost in the moment.
06:49Their faces inch closer, and closer, until suddenly he opens his eyes.
06:53Talk about awkwardness.
06:55The next morning, they meet at the gate, both blushing from the previous night's near kiss.
06:59Seoul One, ever thoughtful.
07:01Checks on him and gives him some medicine.
07:03Then surprise, Cha Hyun actually offers her a ride to school.
07:07This is unprecedented.
07:09At school, the class president election is heating up.
07:12Everyone's meticulously preparing their speeches.
07:15A classmate, who also happens to have a crush on Cha Hyun, is running for president.
07:19Not wanting to be outdone, Seoul One throws her hat in the ring too.
07:23We see her practicing her speech alone on the sports field, struggling with her nerves.
07:28The swimmer appears, offering support, and making her laugh.
07:31This playful interaction doesn't go unnoticed by Cha Hyun, who seems less than thrilled.
07:37Election day arrives, and Seoul One steps onto the podium, trembling.
07:41But her friend's cheers give her a boost of confidence, and she delivers her speech with newfound poise.
07:46The results are in, and it's a tie, between Seoul One and other candidate.
07:51The deciding vote?
07:52Cha Hyun, who's currently absent.
07:54Seoul One assumes he'll vote for her.
07:56But when he finally arrives, he casts his vote for the other candidate.
08:00Seoul One is crushed.
08:01She ends up as vice president.
08:03Later, on the stairs, she sees the newly elected class president, thanking Cha Hyun for helping her with her speech, and giving him a box of pastries.
08:11Seoul One, feeling betrayed, confronts him, demanding to know why he didn't vote for her.
08:17His response?
08:18Brutal.
08:19He says she doesn't have what it takes to be class president.
08:21Furious, Seoul One kicks him hard in the shin and storms off.
08:25Immediately regretting her outburst, she vents to her best friend, who, by the way, is thoroughly amused by Cha Hyun's pain.
08:32The class president assigns Seoul One the task of collecting money for class T-shirts.
08:37This presents a new problem.
08:38How to approach Cha Hyun for his contribution?
08:41She finally gathers the courage to go to his desk.
08:43Before she can even utter a word, he hands her the money and curtly demands his change.
08:48Moments later, the class president approaches, and he's all smiles and charm.
08:52The double standard infuriates Seoul One.
08:55She gives him his change, and puts the envelope of money inside her literature textbook.
09:00Cha Hyun notices this but doesn't seem to pay much attention, until the class president mentions the T-shirt funds.
09:06Sali checks her desk, and realizes she accidentally turned in her textbook, along with the money, to the teacher's office.
09:12Panic sets in.
09:14The deadline for the money is fast approaching.
09:16Two of her friends volunteer to break into the teacher's office, to retrieve the envelope, but their mission fails.
09:22Seoul One is pale with worry.
09:24The swimmer, noticing her distress, asks if she's okay.
09:28She brushes him off, claiming a stomachache.
09:30The swimmer, totally smitten with Seoul One, believes her stomachache story and heads to the nurse's office, to get her some medicine.
09:37On his way back, he finds her sitting dejectedly on the stairs.
09:41As he hands her the medicine, Cha Hyun appears.
09:43Cha Hyun, asks if she lost the class funds.
09:47Seoul One pleads with him for help.
09:48But he's still holding a grudge over the shin-kicking incident, and refuses.
09:52Seoul One class returns, consumed with anxiety.
09:55When the teacher asks about the missing money, Seoul One stays silent, unable to confess.
10:00Just then, Seoul One walks in with the envelope.
10:03He hands it to Seoul One, who, despite being relieved, takes responsibility for the incident in front of the whole class.
10:09Unexpectedly, the teacher praises her for her honesty and courage.
10:14Cha Hyun's birthday is approaching, and Seoul One is in a dilemma.
10:17She wants to buy him a watch, but she's short on cash.
10:20Her friend empathizes, sharing her struggles with buying a gift for her dad's upcoming birthday.
10:26Just when they're feeling hopeless, the class president announces the school sports day, and it's generous prize money for the winning team.
10:32Bingo!
10:33They could use that money for their gifts.
10:35The three girls decide to enter the relay race.
10:37Training begins immediately, and their enthusiasm is infectious.
10:41However, their skills, not so much.
10:44Seoul One can't seem to clear a single hurdle.
10:46The swimmer tries to coach her, but he's not much better.
10:49To make matters worse, their friend, practicing the sack race, takes a tumble and injures her ankle.
10:54The doctor orders her to rest, meaning they're now short a team member.
10:58That evening, Seoul One calls Cha Hyun, wanting to talk face-to-face in their shared courtyard.
11:04He's busy studying, so they chat on the phone instead.
11:07Seoul One tells him about the disastrous practice and their teammate's injury.
11:11Cha Hyun listens, offering a cryptic smile but no real solution.
11:15The next day, Cha Hyun shows up at practice, witnessing Seoul One's epic hurdle failure.
11:20He shakes his head, unable to watch any longer, and finally steps in to help her train.
11:25Sports day arrives.
11:26Seoul One, who had grand plans for a fancy watch, is now back to square one.
11:53Their friend receives news that her father is leaving the country and needs to see him immediately.
11:58Even though it's the middle of the school day, she's devastated, knowing she won't see him for months.
12:03The school won't let her leave, so Cha Hyun suggests.
12:07Climbing the fence.
12:08The whole group gathers at the wall, helping her escape over the gate.
12:11They barely make it over the fence when the school monitor appears,
12:15sending the whole group scattering like startled rabbits.
12:17Their friend manages to escape through the gate, only to run into another teacher.
12:22Thinking fast, the teacher gives her his jacket to cover up and lets her go without a word.
12:27What a lifesaver!
12:28The following week, the school announces a drama competition.
12:32The teacher tasks each class with preparing a play.
12:35Auditions are scheduled for Saturday.
12:37Seoul One chooses a romantic play, secretly hoping Cha Hyun will play the male lead opposite her.
12:42But before she can ask him, the class president swoops in, inviting him to join her group for a production of Romeo and Juliet.
12:49Cha Hyun, surprisingly, hesitates, saying he'll consider it.
12:53Seoul Eye fumes, trailing after him and begging him to join her play.
12:56But it's no use.
12:58Cha Hyun remains steadfast in his refusal.
13:01Come Saturday, the class president submits her group's roster.
13:04Cha Hyun's name is conspicuously absent.
13:07Seeing an opportunity, the president quickly claims her group is one member short.
13:10And just like that, Cha Hyun is cast alongside the class president.
13:15Much to Seoul, Eye's dismay.
13:17Meanwhile, Ha Young, grateful to the doctor for helping her during the fence jumping incident, develops a crush.
13:24When she returns his jacket, their classmate, Jin Hwan, overhears and decides to meddle, creating an awkward encounter.
13:31Seoul Eye and the swimmer practice their play at his house.
13:34It becomes apparent that his life has revolved solely around swimming, missing out on typical high school experiences.
13:39Since transferring and befriending Seoul One, he's finally experiencing the joys and dramas of high school life.
13:46Like driving her home, he affectionately ruffles her hair.
13:49A gesture witnessed by Cha Hyun, who happens to be walking by.
13:53At the auditions, the four perform with passion, and at one point, the swimmer embraces Seoul One.
13:59Cha Hyun watches, his eyebrows furrowing in displeasure.
14:02Jin Hwan adds some comedic flair to the performance.
14:05But despite their efforts, they don't cut.
14:07The class president's group, with Cha Hyun as Romeo, is chosen.
14:12On the day of the competition, Seoul One is in charge of sound.
14:15Everything goes smoothly until the kissing scene.
14:18While recording, overcome with jealousy, she mutters some snarky comments, which are accidentally picked up by the microphone.
14:24Backstage chaos ensues.
14:26During the dramatic poisoning scene, the actor spills the prop poison all over Seoul One, ruining her costume.
14:32The play is a disaster, and everyone blames Seoul One.
14:36Cha Hyun, seeing her distress, immediately grabs his jacket and goes to find her.
14:41He angrily confronts her, blaming her for the mishap, before storming off.
14:45Heartbroken and humiliated, Seoul Ai locks herself in her room for the rest of the day.
14:50Seoul Ai cries herself to sleep, her room littered with tissues.
14:53Her parents try to comfort her, but she refuses to leave her room.
14:57The next morning, she runs into Cha Hyun in the courtyard.
15:00Embarrassed, she avoids eye contact and hurries away.
15:03Cha Hyun, equally awkward, pretends not to notice and bikes off to school.
15:08Seoul Ai arrives late, and to make matters worse, runs into the dreaded school monitor.
15:13She's reprimanded in front of her homeroom teacher.
15:15In class, she endures more humiliation, as her classmates tease her about the play's disastrous ending.
15:21Dae Sung, the swimmer, steps in, defending her and demanding an apology from the bullies.
15:27Later, in the library, Cha Hyun and a friend are studying when Seoul Ai arrives, looking for a place to sit.
15:33His friend invites her to join them.
15:36Cha Hyun notices a mistake in Seoul Ai's work and wants to help.
15:39But remembering his harsh words, she refuses his help, insisting she can figure it out herself.
15:45Unable to stand the tension, she leaves.
15:48That evening, on their way home, Cha Hyun sees Seoul Ai walking, and slows down, hoping to walk with her.
15:53But when he looks back, she's gone.
15:56Arriving home, he's greeted by his mother and younger sibling, who have returned from abroad.
16:01After a happy family dinner, he retreats to his room to study, typing and deleting text messages.
16:07Wanting to check on Seoul Ai, but unsure what to say.
16:10Seoul Ai's parents received her disappointing report card, and want to discuss her academic struggles.
16:15Overwhelmed with shame and wanting to avoid Cha Hyun, Seoul Ai asks to transfer schools.
16:20The next morning, Daesung sees Seoul Ai walking to school, and offers her a ride.
16:24She casually asks what he would do if she transferred.
16:27He immediately panics, frantically wondering if the new school has a swim team.
16:31At school, Cha Hyun sees Seoul Ai drawing a picture, a farewell message.
16:36He's taken aback.
16:37Daesung calls Seoul One, inviting her to the school pool.
16:41He's filled it with inflatable toys, hoping to cheer her up.
16:44They have a blast, splashing and playing.
16:47Seoul Ai's spirits lift, but their fun is interrupted when a teacher catches them.
16:50Daesung is punished with 500 push-ups.
16:53Cha Hyun learns about the transfer from Seoul One's mother, and worries she might actually leave.
16:58The next day, Seoul One is called to the principal's office.
17:01Her parents are there to discuss the transfer.
17:04Cha Hyun overhears and rushes to the office.
17:06Seeing him, the teacher is flustered.
17:08But Cha Hyun quickly fabricates an excuse about retrieving his notebook,
17:12and manages to get Seoul One and her parents out of the office.
17:15In the hallway, he simply tells her,
17:18Don't go.
17:19And just like that, Seoul One, unable to resist his plea, abandons her transfer plans.
17:24The new school year begins, and thankfully, the five friends are all in the same class.
17:29Seoul Ai arrives early, and strategically claims the desk next to Cha Hyun's usual spot,
17:34ensuring another year of proximity to her crush.
17:37Jin Hwan, spotting a poster for a national singing competition, declares his intention to enter.
17:42His friends react with a collective groan, skeptical of his talent.
17:46Only Seoul One supports his dream, encouraging him to go for it.
17:50On her way home, excited to share the news with her parents,
17:53Seoul Ai walks in on them, arguing about money.
17:56The happy announcement will have to wait.
17:58The next day, Jin Hwan gathers his friends for moral support at his audition.
18:02Seoul Ai, returning home from school, finds the house empty.
18:05A note from her mother, explains she's gone to another city.
18:09Confused and worried, she bursts into tears when Cha Hyun arrives,
18:13explaining that her father's been gone for two days, and now her mother's disappeared.
18:18Cha Hyun caught off guard, awkwardly offers a shoulder to cry on.
18:21At Jin Hwan's second audition, Daesung and Seoul Ai provided backup vocals.
18:26Cha Hyun and Ha Young try to cheer him on, but their off-key singing gets them kicked off stage.
18:31The group decides to make a day of it, enjoying the city since they're already there.
18:36With her parents having reconciled, Seoul Ai joins the fun, and her worries eased.
18:41As they lie under the night sky, Seoul Ai spots a shooting star and reminds everyone to make a wish.
18:46Cha Hyun, ever the pragmatist, scoffs at the idea.
18:50The others give him the stink eye.
18:52Later, Seoul One confides in a friend that she wishes for Cha Hyun to like her back.
18:56They play a game of truth, writing down secrets and drawing them randomly.
19:00Seoul Ai picks a slip that says,
19:02I like you.
19:03The problem?
19:04Both Cha Hyun and Daesung could have written it.
19:07Seoul Ai's birthday is the following Saturday, and she tries to make plans with Cha Hyun.
19:12His favorite soccer team is playing that day, and she wants to go with him.
19:16Tickets are expensive and hard to come by, so she asks her mother for money,
19:20resulting in a predictable scolding.
19:22The group goes to support Daesung at the National Swimming Championship.
19:25He wins gold.
19:26During his interview, he credits his success to a special someone, and all eyes turn to Seoul One.
19:32Rumors of a secret romance spread like wildfire.
19:35Back at school, the teasing continues, and even Cha Hyun is subjected to the gossip.
19:41Seoul Ai, seemingly unfazed, casually tells Cha Hyun they can't walk home together today,
19:47but reaffirms their Saturday plans.
19:49Later, she presents him with a jersey of his favorite team, complete with an autograph.
19:53But Cha Hyun coldly asks how much it costs, gives her the money, and cruelly tells her.
19:59He won't be going out with her on Saturday.
20:01Ouch!
20:02Ha Young, feeling sympathetic towards Seoul One, tells Cha Hyun about her birthday,
20:07and the lengths she went to, to get the tickets for him.
20:10Daesung's swim coach comes to school looking for him.
20:13He's not there, but the coach runs into Seoul One, remembering her from the pool incident.
20:18He asks if she's seen Daesung, who's been skipping practice.
20:21Seoul Ai doesn't know where he is, but pleads with the coach not to be too harsh,
20:26sharing stories about Daesung's kind nature and dedication.
20:29The coach tracks Daesung down at his part-time job, silently observing him work.
20:34Before leaving, he tells Daesung to come home that night.
20:37It's revealed that the coach is Daesung's father.
20:40Seoul Ai's father surprises her with two tickets to the soccer game.
20:44Thrilled, she immediately invites Cha Hyun, brushing off Daesung's attempt to make plans with her for
20:49Saturday. However, when they arrive at the stadium, the tickets turn out to be fakes.
20:54Dejected, they sit outside and talk.
20:56Seoul One, curious, asks to see the note Cha Hyun wrote during the truth game.
21:01He shows her, and it's utterly mundane.
21:03This triggers a realization.
21:05She remembers the, I like you, note she picked.
21:09If Cha Hyun didn't write it, then who did?
21:11Lost in thought.
21:12She barely registers Cha Hyun's birthday wishes, as they walk home.
21:17Seoul One obsesses over the notes.
21:19She'd assumed the confession was from Cha Hyun, but his actual note was completely different.
21:24Ha Young, hearing the story, suggests Seoul Ai give Daesung a chance.
21:28He's kind, athletic, and a good friend.
21:30But Seoul Ai's feelings for Cha Hyun are still strong.
21:33She meets with Daesung to talk, but he already knows about her feelings for Cha Hyun.
21:38Rather than confess his feelings, he downplays the, I like you, note, claiming it was a joke.
21:44He chooses to preserve their friendship, rather than risk rejection.
21:48Seoul Ai returns home later than usual, running into Cha Hyun taking out the trash.
21:52She tells him she was with Daesung.
21:54He simply reminds her not to stay out too late.
21:57Even the small interaction makes her heart flutter.
22:00Seoul Ai and Cha Hyun are assigned to the same debate team,
22:03where they face constant dismissal from their teammates.
22:05Cha Hyun, noticing her frustration, takes her for a walk.
22:10A rare moment of lightheartedness between them.
22:12Meanwhile, Ha Young, harboring a crush on the school nurse,
22:16secretly follows him to a movie theater, buying a ticket for the same showing.
22:20Her crush continues to deepen.
22:22Ha Young's infatuation with the school nurse reaches new heights.
22:25She follows him to the cinema,
22:27even lying to the ticket seller about him being her mentally challenged older brother
22:31to secure seats next to him.
22:33On her way home, she witnesses Jin Wan being mugged.
22:36Without hesitation, she jumps in to help, and they manage to escape the thugs.
22:40At debate practice, Seoul Ai struggles to contribute,
22:44drawing criticism from her teammates.
22:46Upset and discouraged, she receives some much-needed guidance from Cha Hyun,
22:50who offers helpful suggestions for their arguments.
22:53During the presentation, Seoul Ai uses Cha Hyun's advice
22:56to confidently present her group's arguments,
22:59even incorporating anecdotes about her friends, impressing everyone.
23:03Later, the group gathers at the sports field, sharing secrets and embarrassing stories.
23:08Everything from drunken escapades and muggings to contagious foot fungus.
23:12Seoul Ai's music player breaks, and she grumbles, trying to borrow Jin Wan's without success.
23:18Cha Hyun is about to offer his, when the class president arrives,
23:22presenting him with yet another box of pastries.
23:24Seoul One, witnessing this, sulks.
23:27Just then, Daesung arrives, and offers her his music player.
23:31Cha Hyun, seeing this, quietly puts his player away.
23:35In class, Seoul One is completely engrossed in her music,
23:38oblivious to the teacher standing right in front of her.
23:41Her classmates have to nudge her awake.
23:43The teacher confiscates both the comic book she was reading,
23:46and Daesung's music player.
23:48Despite her pleas, the teacher refuses to return it.
23:50As winter sets in, Daesung brings hand warmers for everyone,
23:54thoughtfully giving Seoul One a special, extra warm one.
23:57Cha Hyun, observing this, walks away, irritated.
24:01Seoul Ai quickly follows, leaving Daesung looking hurt.
24:04It's clear his unrequited feelings are taking a toll.
24:07A classmate falls ill, and rumors of a dangerous flu outbreak begin to circulate.
24:12Just then, Seoul One sneezes, prompting a visit to the nurse's office.
24:16With flu fears escalating, the school is temporarily closed.
24:19Everyone visits Seoul Ai while she's resting at home, except Cha Hyun.
24:24When she asks about him, her friends lie, saying he was detained by a teacher.
24:28Cha Hyun goes to retrieve Seoul Ai's confiscated book, bringing her music player along.
24:33On his way to her house, he runs into the strict school monitor.
24:36Thinking fast, he turns back and gives the music player to the nurse,
24:40asking him to return it to its owner, without specifying who.
24:43The nurse enters the room where Seoul One is resting,
24:46and asks who the music player belongs to.
24:48Seoul One recognizes Cha Hyun's player, but before she can claim it,
24:52the class president, jealous of Seoul One, falsely claims she borrowed the music player.
24:57Meanwhile, Cha Hyun takes Seoul One's book to the school's broadcasting room.
25:01He's clearly trying to read it to her.
25:03A shy gesture of affection.
25:05Seoul, resting in the nurse's office, recognizes the book being read.
25:09It's the one she was reading before she got sick.
25:11The entire school is captivated by the mystery reader.
25:13Only her friends realize it's Cha Hyun, joking that his voice could cure any illness.
25:19Seoul Ai, listening, secretly wishes she could stay sick a little longer.
25:23The class president, however, is seething with rage.
25:26Later that day, both Seoul One and her classmate recover and are sent home.
25:30That evening, Seoul Ai calls Cha Hyun, complimenting his reading voice,
25:34and asking him to read her another book.
25:36Surprisingly, he doesn't refuse, saying he'll think about it.
25:40Seoul One is overjoyed.
25:41Christmas is approaching, and the girls are busy preparing gifts for their crushes.
25:46Ha Young writes a letter to the school nurse, while Seoul Ai makes a simple card for Cha Hyun.
25:51Seeing her rival preparing a luxurious scarf for Cha Hyun, Seoul Ai worries her gift is inadequate.
25:56Walking home from school, Seoul One complains about her cold hands.
26:00Dae Sung, walking beside her, offers her his gloves.
26:04Cha Hyun, seeing this, jealously pulls Seoul Ai aside,
26:07using a passing old lady with a small dog as a flimsy excuse about danger.
26:12At home, Seoul One witnesses her father's impressive knitting skills.
26:16While watching him work, she and her friend accidentally drop the card she made for Cha Hyun.
26:21Her parents, seeing the card, realize she has a crush and are eager to find out who it is.
26:27Her mother tries to get information from Cha Hyun, but he denies knowing anything.
26:30At school, Seoul Ai sees the class president's nearly finished scarf, then glances at her own knitted creation,
26:37which Ha Young had previously compared to a doormat.
26:40Ha Young takes her gift to the school nurse, but finds his desk overflowing with expensive presents.
26:45Discouraged, she puts her small gift away and heads back to class.
26:49On her way, she's cornered by a group of delinquent classmates, confessing their feelings for her.
26:54She firmly rejects them, her standards considerably higher.
26:57Jin Wan happens to pass by and rescues her from the awkward situation.
27:01Seoul Ai walks into class and sees Cha Hyun, accepting the class president's scarf, without hesitation.
27:07Frustrated, she declares she won't give him her gift after all.
27:11Later, at home, she discovers her card is missing.
27:14Her parents ask who the card was for, and she nervously lies, saying she was just testing out a pen.
27:20That night, Seoul One wrestles with her emotions, even considering throwing the card away.
27:25But she can't bring herself to do it.
27:27The next morning, she sees Cha Hyun wearing the class president's scarf, and angrily walks away without a word.
27:33Later, during after-school cleaning duty, Ha Young climbs onto a desk to clean the windows.
27:39Jin Hwan, feigning concern for her safety, makes her get down, and pushes Seoul Ai forward to do the cleaning instead.
27:46Cha Hyun, worried about Seoul Ai, gently helps her down, attaches a cleaning cloth to a pole, and gives it to her.
27:52This unexpected act of kindness leaves everyone stunned.
27:57Dae Sung, wanting to cheer Seoul One up, creates a magical Christmas Eve moment.
28:01Even though there's no snow, he climbs to the rooftop and sprays fake snow through the classroom windows.
28:07Later, as if on cue, real snow begins to fall, making the night perfect.
28:12Walking home, Ha Young and Jin Hwan find themselves together.
28:15Coincidentally, Jin Hwan and the school nurse have the same initials, making her gift suddenly appropriate for him.
28:21She gives him the present she'd originally intended for the nurse.
28:24Seoul Ai and Cha Hyun walk home together.
28:27Seoul One sneezes repeatedly, and Cha Hyun gives her his scarf.
28:30It turns out to be the one his mother knitted.
28:33Not the one from the class president.
28:34Overjoyed, Seoul Ai gives Cha Hyun a small Christmas tree-shaped card.
28:38Arriving home, she finds her parents decorating for Christmas.
28:42She gives them the pink card she'd made, the one addressed to,
28:45My Beloved.
28:46It turns out the card was for her father all along.
28:49He's surprised but deeply touched.
28:51After the winter break, school resumes.
28:54Jin Hwan, ever the gossip, shares the exciting news of a class trip after the upcoming exams.
28:59Everyone is buzzing with anticipation.
29:01Seoul One daydreams about confessing her feelings to Cha Hyun during the trip.
29:06Even calculating her savings to fund her grand romantic gesture.
29:10She and Dae Sung go shopping for supplies.
29:12Cha Hyun pretends to take out the trash just to wait for Seoul One in the courtyard.
29:16She catches on to his act.
29:18Noticing he only takes out tiny amounts of garbage each time,
29:21Ha Young, still determined to spend time with the school nurse, buys a movie ticket next to his.
29:26Jin Hwan, however, tags along, insisting on sitting next to her.
29:30Much to her annoyance.
29:32The class trip arrives, and the entire class sets off for their volunteer project.
29:36Seoul One, as always, sticks to Cha Hyun like glue.
29:40Meanwhile, Dae Sung is stuck at the pool for national team tryouts.
29:44Missing out on the fun.
29:45Finding Cha Hyun relaxing in the grass.
29:48Seoul One lies down beside him, gazing at him.
29:51He wakes up.
29:52And they're suddenly face to face.
29:54Both flustered by the close proximity.
29:55That evening, during a bonfire, Cha Hyun is seated between Seoul One and the class president.
30:01The president asks him to open her water bottle.
30:03Seoul Eye, trying to get his attention, fumbles with her own bottle.
30:07Without a word, Cha Hyun takes it, opens it, and hands it back.
30:11The class president seethes.
30:13Seoul One whispers a rendezvous plan to Cha Hyun, asking him to meet her at a nearby clearing.
30:18With the help of her friends, she sets up a romantic confession scene.
30:21Complete with lights and decorations.
30:23But when the lights come on, it's the class president who appears, running into Cha Hyun's arms.
30:29Seoul One freezes, tears streaming down her face.
30:31Just then, Dae Sung arrives, shielding Seoul Eye from the painful sight.
30:35Cha Hyun, turning around, sees the elaborate setup and Seoul One in someone else's arms.
30:41A taste of his own medicine, perhaps.
30:43Dae Sung walks Seoul Eye home, where they encounter Cha Hyun.
30:47Instinctively, Seoul Eye runs inside, leaving the two boys to face each other.
30:51Dae Sung confesses his feelings for Seoul One, and warns Cha Hyun not to hurt her again.
30:58Cha Hyun, realizing his mistake, tries to buy snacks to apologize, but he can't decide what to get.
31:04With Jin Hwan's help, he brings a mountain of snacks to class, but Seoul One is asleep.
31:09He leaves them on her desk.
31:11Seoul Eye wakes up, and accidentally knocks the snacks to the floor.
31:14Dae Sung picks them up, but she refuses them, saying they're not hers.
31:18The snacks end up in the hands of the mischievous Jin Hwan.
31:21Two classmates consult a horoscope chart.
31:24Ha Young and Seoul One, on their way to the cafeteria, decide to check their compatibility with their crushes.
31:29Ha Young checks hers with the school nurse.
31:32Unbeknownst to them, Jin Hwan is eavesdropping.
31:35He's ecstatic to discover he and the nurse share the same sign.
31:38The following day, Dae Sung has a break from training, and plans a date with Seoul One.
31:42While they're out, they run into the class president, who bumps into Seoul One and starts berating her.
31:48Dae Sung defends Seoul One.
31:50Cha Hyun arrives, and simply tells the class president to return to class.
31:54Fed up, Sa Lai calls her a jerk, and runs away.
31:58That night, the class president sneaks into the school monitor's office.
32:02Trouble is brewing.
32:03The class president is caught red-handed, trying to steal the exam papers.
32:06She's caught by the school monitor, and proceeds to throw a dramatic tantrum, a classic case of crying thief.
32:14Cha Hyun's younger brother receives a love letter, and seeks advice from his older, wiser sibling.
32:19He sagely advises that in matters of the heart, the boy should always apologize first, because boys are always wrong.
32:26Taking this advice to heart, Cha Hyun enlists two friends for a grand piano apology to Seoul One.
32:31Touched by the gesture, she forgives him.
32:33As they walk home, Cha Hyun tries to start a conversation, but Dae Sung swoops in on his bike, whisking Seoul Eye away.
32:41Despite being selected for the national team, Dae Sung suffers a shoulder injury, jeopardizing his chances of competing.
32:47Later, it's raining, and Cha Hyun waits for Seoul, one in their courtyard with an umbrella.
32:52But when she arrives, she's immediately on the phone with Dae Sung, confirming he got home safely.
32:58Cha Hyun stands silently, umbrella in hand, watching her.
33:01Ha Young visits the school nurse again, offering a flimsy excuse when questioned.
33:06Her real reason? Just to see him.
33:09Dae Sung, ever thoughtful, takes Seoul One on a snack buying spree.
33:13Knowing sweets can lift her spirits.
33:15Jin Hwan, tired of the unspoken tension between Seoul One and Cha Hyun, decides to intervene.
33:21He arranges for them to, coincidentally, meet in the library, where Seoul lies reading her favorite book.
33:27When Cha Hyun arrives, Seoul Eye tries to leave, but he stops her.
33:31They sit together, reading, Cha Hyun.
33:34Unable to resist, Steels glances at Seoul One, even tucking a stray hair behind her ear.
33:40Seoul One, completely smitten, walks home in a daze.
33:43On their way, they see a group of girls searching for four-leaf clovers to give to their crushes.
33:48Inspired, they join the hunt.
33:50Ha Young creates a four-leaf clover artwork and takes it to the school nurse.
33:54She finds his office in disarray, with medicine spilled on the floor, but doesn't think much of it.
33:59Unbeknownst to her, Jin Hwan sees her leaving the nurse's office.
34:03Intrigued, he enters and finds the clover artwork.
34:06He realizes Ha Young's feelings aren't for him, but for the nurse.
34:10Heartbroken, he discovers that everyone knows about Ha Young's crush, except him, leading him to skip school.
34:16The class president collapses, causing chaos.
34:19Her mother arrives at the school, accusing them of negligence.
34:22The school nurse is furious about the class president's mother's accusations.
34:26He argues that she was the negligent one, ignoring her daughter's mental health struggles.
34:30Pushed to the limit, he apologizes and resigns.
34:33Ha Young, heartbroken, runs to talk to him, but he simply offers a cheerful,
34:38It's okay, leaving her on the verge of tears.
34:41Jin Hwan returns to school after his absence, sporting a dramatic new look with brightly dyed hair.
34:46He boldly confesses his feelings for Ha Young in front of the entire class,
34:50who enthusiastically cheer him on.
34:52However, Jin Hwan is hospitalized with a congenital heart condition.
34:56His three friends visit him, witnessing his dramatic reaction to a large blood draw.
35:01He keeps glancing at the door, hoping to see Ha Young.
35:03When she finally arrives, bringing his homework notes, he pretends not to need them,
35:08focusing his attention on his friends and ignoring her.
35:11On their way home, Seoul Won and Cha Hyun run into his mother and overhear her talking about Cha Hyun,
35:17attending a prestigious university.
35:20Seoul Ai feels a pang of insecurity, realizing the academic gap between them.
35:24She seeks advice from her homeroom teacher, who realistically suggests a local college based on her current grades.
35:30Dae Sung's shoulder pain worsens as the national team tryouts approach.
35:34Jin Hwan, after his public confession, avoids Ha Young, even when she comes to his hospital room, to help him with his studies.
35:42The day of the school nurse's departure arrives.
35:44Ha Young waits to say goodbye, tears in her eyes.
35:47The two girls, both nursing unrequited loves, commiserate over their shared heartbreak.
35:53One love interest is leaving for a new job, and the other for a prestigious university.
35:58It's a tough time for romance.
35:59The two boys vying for Seoul's first section, engage in a billiard showdown.
36:04Cha Hyun, despite a strong start, is no match for Dae Sung's expert skills.
36:08Despite Cha Hyun's loss, Seoul Won, impressed by Dae Sung's talent, asks him to teach her how to play.
36:14Cha Hyun, unable to bear their closeness, jealously pulls her away.
36:18On their walk home, Seoul Ai tries to cheer Cha Hyun up by complimenting him,
36:22but she accidentally mentions Dae Sung, causing Cha Hyun to playfully cover her mouth and steer her home.
36:28During cleaning duty, Cha Hyun sees Dae Sung offering to wipe Seoul Won's face.
36:33He quickly makes up a story about the teacher needing her, pulling her away from Dae Sung.
36:37Dae Sung sees right through the ruse, labeling Cha Hyun a petty devil.
36:41In the teacher's office, Seoul Won overhears a conversation between her teacher and Dae Sung's father,
36:47revealing the seriousness of Dae Sung's shoulder injury.
36:50Wanting to cheer up Dae Sung about his injury and the missed tryouts,
36:53Seoul Ai takes him out for snacks.
36:54They make a pact to study hard and get into a good university together.
36:59Arriving home, Seoul Ai finds Cha Hyun waiting in the courtyard.
37:02He uses the flimsy excuse of buying snacks for his younger sibling,
37:06but it's clear he is waiting for her.
37:08Their brief conversation hints at a growing connection.
37:11With 100 days left until the college entrance exams, the pressure is on.
37:15Everyone is studying hard.
37:16The teacher hands out university application forms, but Seoul Won is unsure about her future.
37:21She excels at art, but struggles with academics.
37:25Ha Young brings Jin Hwan's application form to the hospital, surprising him.
37:29He hadn't told her he was still there, so he quickly covered up by claiming he was readmitted.
37:34Cha Hyun confides in his mother, revealing he doesn't want to follow in her footsteps and become a professor.
37:40He wants to be a doctor.
37:41Cha Hyun visits Jin Hwan at the hospital, and they discuss their feelings for the two girls.
37:46Jin Hwan expresses his insecurities about his heart condition.
37:49While Cha Hyun admits he chose to study medicine in Korea to stay close to Seoul Won.
37:54Cha Hyun tutors Seoul Won in the library.
37:57Even simple math problems prove challenging for her.
38:00While waiting for her to finish a problem, he dozes off.
38:04Seoul Ai, finishing the problem, is captivated by the sight of him sleeping.
38:08Dae Sung walks by, noticing the scene but quietly moving on.
38:12Cha Hyun wakes up as Seoul Ai leans in close.
38:14He teases her, saying he'll believe her feelings are genuine, when she stops chewing on her pen while doing math.
38:21They return to class and greet Dae Sung.
38:23Suddenly, a call comes in from the nursing home.
38:25Dae Sung's grandmother has wandered off.
38:27The three of them rush out to search for her, eventually finding her sitting on a bench in the garden.
38:32She'd left because she missed Dae Sung, and was waiting for him to visit.
38:36However, when Dae Sung stands before her, she doesn't recognize him.
38:39Dae Sung, rambling about her grandson, and his dreams of becoming a world champion swimmer.
38:44That night, Cha Hyun and Dae Sung have a heart-to-heart.
38:48Cha Hyun decides to stay in Korea, and Dae Sung resolves to pursue swimming again.
38:52While wanting to make his grandmother's dream a reality.
38:56He decides to let Seoul Won go, encouraging Cha Hyun to make her happy.
39:00After practice, Dae Sung looks at the cheering banner, Seoul Ai made for him,
39:04and decides to meet with her to confess his feelings.
39:06Dae Sung's confession isn't a plea for reciprocation.
39:10He's simply freeing himself from the burden of unrequited love, deciding to move on.
39:15It reinforces the bittersweet reality of one-sided affection.
39:18The day of the college entrance exam arrives.
39:21Everyone gives it their all.
39:22Even Jin Hwan takes the exam under supervision in the hospital.
39:26After the exam, Ha Young visits Jin Hwan, inquiring about how he did.
39:31He expresses his insecurities about his health and future.
39:33But to his surprise, Ha Young accepts him, confessing her feelings.
39:38Seoul Ai received her exam results, and her score is much higher than expected.
39:43She and Cha Hyun celebrate, and she asks him to write in her yearbook.
39:47He refuses, saying yearbooks are for people parting ways, and they'll still be together.
39:52Cha Hyun gets accepted into his dream medical program.
39:55Their other friends also receive acceptance letters.
39:57Only Seoul Won is unreachable.
39:59She didn't get into her desired university.
40:01Worried, Cha Hyun finally connects with her.
40:04Seoul Won is devastated about failing the exam.
40:07He encourages her to retake it, and apply to his university.
40:11She's afraid, but he promises to help her study.
40:14Dae Sung, preparing for the world championship finals, calls Seoul Lun for encouragement.
40:19She tells him about her plans to retake the exam, and they support each other's goals.
40:24Dae Sung wins the championship.
40:25During his interview, he sends a televised message of support to Seoul Won.
40:29This time, Seoul Ai studies diligently, focusing on her art portfolio.
40:34Her friends surprise her with a visit before her practical art exam, boosting her confidence.
40:39And it pays off.
40:41Seoul Won is accepted into the prestigious art program at Cha Hyun University.
40:45They celebrate with a night out, marking the beginning of their college life.
40:49The evening ends with everyone, except a few of the boys, completely drunk.
40:53Seoul Ai, mistaking Dae Sung for Cha Hyun, confesses her feelings again in her drunken state.
40:58On the familiar road, they walk together throughout high school.
41:02Seoul Won and Cha Hyun share their first kiss.
41:05Later, at a party with Cha Hyun's university classmates, Seoul Won is pressured to drink.
41:10Cha Hyun intervenes, and a drinking game ensues.
41:13During a game of truth or dare, Seoul Ai asks Cha Hyun if she misheard him earlier.
41:19She's unsure when they officially became a couple.
41:21He confirms it, and Seoul Won celebrates with joyful exuberance.
41:25She shares the news with Ha Young, who, newly in love herself, is giddy with excitement over just holding hands.
41:32Ha Young, with a year of dating experience under her belt, teases her friend's innocent reaction.
41:37Seoul Ai goes on a date with Cha Hyun, wearing a dress Ha Young picked out.
41:41He invites her to spend the night, studying at the library with him.
41:45Later, the new couple sits together in the park, still a little shy and awkward around each other.
41:50Even a simple goodnight kiss sends them into fits of giggles.
41:53Ha Young, with her striking looks, attracts attention on campus.
41:57Even while studying in a cafe, she receives requests for her number.
42:01Dae Sung, after his world championship win, is a celebrity, constantly bombarded with interviews and adoration.
42:07While studying in the library, Cha Hyun gives Seoul Won a book to read.
42:11Her thick winter gloves make it difficult to turn the pages, so he gently turns them for her.
42:16It's a small, sweet gesture of their blossoming love.
42:19This moment is captured by a reporter, and goes viral on college campuses.
42:23Turns out, Seoul Ai was in on it.
42:25She'd contacted the reporter beforehand.
42:28The photos land them tickets to an event, fueling envy among their friends.
42:31Jin Hwan receives a call from the hospital, requiring further treatment.
42:35Cha Hyun rushes to his side, but Jin Hwan insists on keeping his condition a secret from Ha Young.
42:41The next day, he breaks up with her, knowing the seriousness of his upcoming surgery.
42:45Despite the breakup, Ha Young visits Jin Hwan on the day of his surgery, offering support and encouragement.
42:52Thankfully, the surgery is a success.
42:54Seoul Ai takes a part-time job, wearing a bear costume, and handing out flyers.
42:59It's tiring work, and few people take the flyers.
43:02However, when her boyfriend shows up to help, suddenly, he's surrounded by girls eager to take a flyer from the handsome helper.
43:09It turns out, good looks are a major asset in flyer distribution.
43:12Cha Hyun starts working at the hospital.
43:14Seoul Ai visits him, and catches the nurse flirting with her boyfriend, a classic girlfriend dilemma.
43:20She runs up to him, and playfully clings to him, making everyone in the lobby cringe.
43:25Cha Hyun's busy hospital schedule makes it hard for them to spend time together.
43:29They barely have a moment before his pager goes off, and he's called away.
43:33Cha Hyun is constantly immersed in his work.
43:35While Seoul Ai navigates the freelance world, their different paths create a growing distance between them.
43:40After days of waiting, Seoul One finally receives a job offer.
43:44Excited, she tries to call Cha Hyun, but he's unreachable.
43:48She falls ill, and Jin Hwan and Ha Young take care of her.
43:51When Cha Hyun finally checks his phone, he finds a string of missed calls and messages from Seoul One.
43:57He sends her a late night.
43:59Good night.
44:00Text.
44:00Seoul Ai's job interview doesn't go well.
44:02Her lack of experience and accomplishments disappoints the interviewer.
44:06Later, a senior artist offers to mentor her at his studio, but he makes unwanted advances.
44:12Although she rebuffs him, she's shaken.
44:14She goes to the hospital to see Cha Hyun, but overhears that he's leaving for the U.S. in a month.
44:19Stressed and hurt that he didn't tell her himself, she breaks up with him during an already tense moment.
44:24Just then, an emergency call pulls Cha Hyun away.
44:28He has no choice but to leave her and attend to the patient.
44:31The situation worsens.
44:32They can't save the severely injured patient.
44:35After the failed surgery, Cha Hyun rushes back to find Seoul One, but she's gone.
44:39He goes to her dorm, only to discover she's moved out.
44:43Before leaving for the U.S., he calls her, asking her to see him off, but she coldly tells him not to wait.
44:49He packs the bracelet she gave him in high school, but at the last minute, he leaves it behind.
44:53Three years pass, and Cha Hyun returns from the U.S.
44:57Dae Sung plans a day out with Seoul Line, but as they arrive at the parking lot, he receives news that his father has been hospitalized.
45:04They rush to the hospital.
45:06At the hospital, Seoul One unexpectedly runs into Cha Hyun.
45:10It's an awkward reunion.
45:11Dae Sung arrives, easing the tension.
45:14Cha Hyun seeks out a doctor, asking him to perform surgery on Seoul One's father.
45:19Their paths continue to intertwine, even after their separation.
45:22Seoul One is surprised by Cha Hyun's involvement in her father's surgery.
45:26Her friends, visiting her at the hospital, are equally shocked to see Cha Hyun there.
45:31They tease him, assuming Cha Hyun is staying in the U.S. for good.
45:35Late that night, while Seoul I waits for a taxi, Cha Hyun drives by and offers her a ride.
45:40She gives him a hard time, telling him to just drop her off at the subway station.
45:44He persists, and she reluctantly gets in.
45:47On the day of her father's surgery, Seoul One and her mother anxiously wait.
45:51Cha Hyun is also there, adding to the complicated mix of emotions.
45:55A curious colleague asks Cha Hyun about his ex-girlfriend.
45:59Upon meeting Seoul Lai, the colleague seems to put two and two together.
46:03She pulls Seoul Lai aside, asking about her long-term relationship with Cha Hyun,
46:08and revealing that he talked about her constantly while in the U.S., clearly still deeply in love.
46:13The surgery is successful, and Seoul Lai's mother prepares a feast.
46:17Her father expresses his gratitude to Cha Hyun, even packing a separate meal for him and Seoul One.
46:22The group of friends reunites for a celebratory dinner.
46:25It starts with just the four of them.
46:27But Jin Hwan, ever the instigator, decides it's not enough, and invites Dae Sung,
46:32creating an undeniably awkward situation.
46:35Afterward, Dae Sung is picked up by his manager.
46:38Jin Hwan and Ha Young walk home together.
46:40Cha Hyun drives Seoul Lai home.
46:41In his car, she notices the bracelet she gave him in high school,
46:46hanging from the rear-view mirror.
46:47He still has it.
46:49Arriving at her apartment, Seoul Lai gets out of the car without a word.
46:52Cha Hyun follows, demanding answers.
46:55He asks if she regrets their breakup.
46:57She replies, without emotion, that she didn't.
47:00He kisses her, and while surprised, she doesn't pull away.
47:03After that charged encounter, Seoul Lai sits on the bus,
47:07mustering the courage to call Cha Hyun.
47:09She needs to talk, to clear the air.
47:11She pours out her heart, oblivious to the other passengers,
47:14who assume she's arguing with her boyfriend.
47:17She finishes her monologue, but there's no response.
47:20Confused, she realizes she's been talking to a nurse, not Cha Hyun.
47:24Talk about bad luck.
47:25While Seoul Lai and Cha Hyun navigate their complicated reunion,
47:29Jin Hwan and Ha Young are planning their wedding.
47:31Seoul Lai brings her father dinner at the hospital,
47:34only to find Cha Hyun has already brought food.
47:36Her mother insists she give the extra food to Cha Hyun, despite her father's objections.
47:41Reluctantly, Seoul Lai faces the person she least wants to see right now.
47:45Seoul Lai is caught awkwardly lingering outside.
47:48Cha Hyun's on call room.
47:49He pulls her inside, insisting they have dinner together.
47:52He asks if she's still upset about the kiss, and then suggests they get back together.
47:57Seoul Lai, however, considers their high school romance over,
48:01firmly rejecting him despite his pleas.
48:03Seoul Lai's father is discharged from the hospital.
48:06Dae Sung helps them, receiving a warm welcome from her parents.
48:09Cha Hyun also stops by to check on her father,
48:12creating another awkward encounter for Seoul Lai.
48:15Jin Hwan and Ha Young's wedding day arrives.
48:18Everyone gathers in the bride's room.
48:20Jin Hwan, in a moment of clumsiness, gives the wedding rings to Dae Sung for safekeeping,
48:25then promptly forgets he did so.
48:27He frantically searches for the rings, dragging Cha Hyun and Dae Sung along.
48:31He eventually finds them, in Dae Sung's pocket, along with a large diamond ring.
48:36Jin Hwan points out that it's not his ring, and Dae Sung, startled, pulls out the real wedding rings.
48:42After Jin Hwan leaves with the rings, Dae Sung and Cha Hyun are left alone.
48:46They don't speak, but the unspoken meaning of the diamond ring hangs heavy in the air.
48:51The wedding is attended by their high school classmates, including the reformed class president,
48:56who has returned from the U.S., oblivious to their breakup.
48:58She cheerfully invites them to her own upcoming wedding.
49:02During the bouquet toss, the flowers unexpectedly land in Cha Hyun's hands.
49:06To avoid further awkwardness, he gives the bouquet to Seoul Lai.
49:10She hesitates but accepts it, as everyone applauds.
49:13Dae Sung, however, looks pained.
49:15After the wedding, Cha Hyun can't reach Seoul Lai.
49:18She avoids him.
49:20Seoul Lai successfully signs a contract for her new job, while Cha Hyun struggles to see her.
49:25He asks Jin Hwan for help, but Jin Hwan, remembering how Cha Hyun hurts Seoul Lai, refuses, telling him to figure it out himself.
49:33The group attends Jin Hwan and Ha Young's housewarming party.
49:37Everyone is there, but Cha Hyun stands out.
49:39He's wearing his high school uniform, much to everyone's surprise, as they take turns posing for photos in the garden.
49:46Seoul Lai, seeing Cha Hyun in his uniform, asks him to strike a cute pose, something he would never normally do.
49:52The group erupts in laughter, at Cha Hyun's awkward poses.
49:56Mid-party, he receives a call from the hospital and has to leave.
50:00He glances back at Seoul Lai, and Dae Sung immediately assures him he'll get her home safely.
50:05After dropping Seoul Lai off, Dae Sung presents her with flowers and a diamond ring, confessing his feelings.
50:12However, Seoul Lai gently rejects him, seeing him only as a dear friend.
50:16Heartbroken, Dae Sung calls Jin Hwan for a drinking session.
50:19They drink heavily, but Dae Sung still wants more.
50:23Jin Hwan passes out, leaving Dae Sung and Cha Hyun, who join them later as the only sober ones.
50:29Dae Sung confronts Cha Hyun about abandoning Seoul Lai three years ago, questioning his motives for returning.
50:35Cha Hyun declares his enduring love for her, speaking with an intensity Dae Sung has never seen before.
50:41Suddenly, Dae Sung flips his phone, revealing an ongoing call with Seoul Lai.
50:46She's heard everything.
50:46The three head home, leaving Seoul Lai and Cha Hyun alone.
50:50He apologizes again and asks for another chance.
50:53This time, Seoul Lai doesn't refuse outright, asking for time to think.
50:58Seoul Lai finally finishes her first comic book.
51:00Celebrating, she finds a missed call from Cha Hyun.
51:03Instead of calling back, she goes to his office.
51:06He finds her asleep on his couch when he returns and carries her to his bed.
51:10Cha Hyun's doctor friend develops a crush on Dae Sung.
51:13After their chance encounter at the hospital, Jin Hwan pursues his passion, opening a dance class for middle-aged women.
51:20Cha Hyun, with the help of some adorable kids at the hospital, orchestrates a romantic proposal for Seoul Lai.
51:26While a hospital might seem like an unconventional setting, it's deeply meaningful to them.
51:31After the proposal, they're even more inseparable.
51:34Cha Hyun spends the night at Seoul Lai's apartment.
51:37While they're sleeping, her mother calls, urging her to go on a blind date.
51:40Cha Hyun intercepts the call, announcing they're back together.
51:44Their first night together is spent awkwardly one on the couch.
51:47One in bed, neither able to sleep.
51:49The next morning, they're awakened by her parents knocking at the door.
51:53Chaos ensues.
51:54Seoul Lai tries to hide Cha Hyun, but he calmly invites her parents in.
51:58A hilarious father-in-law, son-in-law bonding session over drinks follows.
52:03Ending with drunken declarations of love, Seoul Lai has a book signing.
52:06She tells her friends, but they all claim to be busy.
52:09After she finishes signing, they surprise her with their presence.
52:13Cha Hyun reminisces about their high school days, from their first meeting to realizing his feelings for her.
52:18He shares a self-made video, chronicling his growing affection for Seoul Lai.
52:22Finally, after all the trials and tribulations, they get their happy ending.
52:26Thanks for watching.
