Boyfriend on Demand (2026) s01e10 Episode Script

Oh! Where are we?
How…
- What's wrong?
- Oh, it's just…
What are we doing here?
- We took a weekend away.
- What?
You're doing it again.
You sure you're okay?
- You're awake.
- Yeah.
I was wondering where you'd gone.
Well, we didn't have anything
for breakfast, so I went to the store.
Oh.
I was worried when I woke up
and you weren't there.
Okay. Go back to sleep.
I'm awake now.
I guess I'll take a shower.
- Okay.
- Hm.
You okay?
You seem a little bit tired.
Did you sleep all right?
I just…
…had trouble falling asleep.
Mmm.
Make sure you get some rest after work.
I'll do that.
Drink some of this.
What's wrong?
You…
- Who are you?
- Who are you?
Is this some kind of joke?
You don't recognize me?
Ms. Seo Mi-rae,
you will need to renew your subscription
if you wish to continue your date
with Gu Yeong-il.
Oh, you're leaving already?
Yeah. Going home now, then to work after.
- Hmm.
- I'll see you later.
Okay.
Why did you leave so fast?
You didn't even say bye.
What is this?
What's what?
Uh… It's nothing.
You seem a little bit tired.
How was your night?
I just
had trouble falling asleep.
So, uh, last night,
there wasn't anything that,
um, kept you awake, was there?
You just got up and hung out
because you couldn't get to sleep?
That's all, right?
I logged on.
Uh, wh…
Logged on where?
Boyfriend on Demand.
Oh…
Uh, you, what… what did you see?
Everything.
I even met that guy.
Oh.
- Let's talk about this later.
- Uh…
Hey, this… …must look like I…
It's not like that. Please.
Somehow things turned out this way.
It wasn't my decision.
- Whose was it?
- It made him…
Gu Yeong-il is his…
That man.
It's not because of you.
Okay, you know Mr. Min, right?
Mr. Min wanted me to write some reviews,
so I, I tried Boyfriend on Demand
just for that.
But then things happened and I…
I accidentally made a character
that looks like, uh…
Are you saying
he looks just like me by coincidence?
It sounds, uh, pretty ridiculous.
I know that.
But I couldn't understand it either.
It really was just a coincidence.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.
I guess I thought
it would sound a bit weird though.
I could see that.
So are you
still upset, or…?
Hm.
Honestly,
I'm not really sure
what I'm feeling right now.
I'll know once I'm over it.
I WANTED TO TELL YOU I LIKE YOU.
PAYMENT COMPLETE
- Hey, listen…
- Are you okay?
Huh?
Why'd you take off so fast?
So you're saying
he was the one who came to see me?
Hm…
- There's nothing I should know, is there?
- No.
What did the two of you talk about?
What more is there to say?
You rejected me, that's it.
How was it?
What?
How did he seem to you,
when he first got here and saw you?
Hm… He looked
like he'd just seen a ghost.
I guess he was shocked
by how handsome I am.
What do I do?
What'd he say about it?
That he doesn't
know how he feels about it yet.
PRODUCER PARK KYEONG-NAM
EARLIER…
SO-YEONG
- Yes, uh, Ms. Yun, can I call you back?
- Producer Seo, this is bad!
Huh?
Oh!
Uh, Mr. Hwang told Ms. Yun
that he was terminating her contract.
She went quiet
and said she'd been looking for
something to take her anger out on.
- Ms. Yun, what brings you--
- Move!
- Sure.
- Get out the way!
Then she said she might as well
go for front-page news and stormed out.
- Stop! Taxi!
- You have to stop her, Mi-rae.
Oh no!
- Oh, uh, Ms. Yun!
- Oh my! So this is what you do in here.
- Wow, that smells amazing doesn't it, huh?
- Uh…
- Oh look, is this Hermes?
- Oh!
- Huh?
- Oh, could you--
- When'd you get so successful?
- Careful.
I'm noticing all kinds of stuff in here
I've never seen before.
I guess that somebody
sure made you a lot of money!
You're not allowed to come here
without an appointment!
- And you're freaking me out! Ah!
- Mr. Hwang!
You're freaked out? Yeah?
'Cause I'm the one
who just got the ax for nothing!
- Please put that down. Oh God. Whoa!
- Please what?
- Gentle! Hey, it's very… That one is--
- Whoa!
- Put it down!
- I don't want to. Why should I?
- Come on!
- Dong-min, where's Ms. Yun?
She's upstairs with Mr. Hwang!
- Come back.
- I'm keeping it.
- Give it back, will you?
- Hey! Let go of me. Let go!
Watch the finger!
Ow! Ugh!
- You hurt my wrist!
- I didn't think…
Aw…
You treat that stupid cup with such care,
but you couldn't care less about my wrist.
I can't even hold a pair
of chopsticks anymore, you know that?
- Think I'm less important than that mug?
- No…
What?! I'll have you know
I got this injury at work.
Do you have any idea
how much this wrist is worth? Huh?!
- Oh!
- Hello, Ms. Yun.
Mi-rae…
Where have you been all this time, huh?
Come on, let's get out of here
so we can talk.
I… I can't take
this kind of abuse, you know?
Let's go.
We don't have to stick
with this shitty company anymore.
I think…
- Wait, Ms. Yun, you can't leave like this.
- Let go.
Please, let's try to convince Mr. Hwang
to reconsider.
- I said let go!
- Hey! You're being ridiculous!
Huh!
Aw…
Aw.
Oh God.
Oh my God. That temper of hers.
She really needs to
get herself under control.
Ah!
What? What you looking at?
What's with all of you? Huh? Oh whatever.
EPISODE 10
AN UTTERLY NORMAL FUTURE
Uh…
It's just a little scratch.
Oh.
There you go.
Better. Thank you.
Shouldn't you go see Ms. Yun?
Once she calms down a bit, yeah.
Uh…
Uh, hey.
I was thinking about our conversation.
It's okay, you explained already.
Oh.
So it's all good?
Wow.
Did you see how she pulled
a judo shoulder throw on him? Crazy.
Stop blowing things
out of proportion, huh?
What? Wha!
What's wrong? Are you hurt?
- Let me see.
- It's nothing.
Would you look at that face?
This won't do.
Let's go.
You need to fill up on grilled eel.
You'll come for lunch too, right?
Uh…
Actually,
I have a meeting right now, sorry.
Oh, really? That's too bad.
So, are the grilled eel bowls
on you, then?
The doors are opening.
- What is it?
- I…
- I don't feel like I explained very well.
- Ah…
Are you sure you're okay?
Yeah.
Look at me.
You're really here.
The doors are opening.
Oh… So Hwany is…
waiting outside.
So I should get going.
'Kay. See you later.
Yeah.
Hm.
I had the feeling
that Park Kyeong-nam
had gone back to seeing me
as nothing special.
It was
a familiar sinking feeling.
The worse it gets,
the more I should pretend I'm okay.
Good luck with your meeting!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR MEETING!
UNREAD
- Are you busy?
- You like him that much?
When you like someone you go all in,
no matter how the guy starts treating you.
- Hm.
- Not a good idea.
Why?
It's all about relationship dynamics.
The one who shows their feelings most
gets taken for granted in the end.
What are you talking about?
You should know all this
from your last relationship.
God. Okay, fine. Let's say you're right.
So I get taken for granted a little. Pfft.
All right. As long as you're okay checking
your phone all day waiting for a reply.
Like, "How come he's not answering?"
And "Is he still interested in me?"
Trembling with anxiety.
Yeah, sounds super fun.
Mm-hmm.
Thanks a lot, you just cursed us.
You can't keep
putting your head in the sand!
You're worried, so you chase him.
That makes his heart cool even quicker.
Now listen, this is very important.
When things start going sideways
and it gets awkward,
as soon as you feel it, be careful.
Got that?
Why?
You'll see who likes who the most,
which one of you has
stronger feelings for the other.
That's when the servant
and the master are decided.
Seriously though.
Ugh. Why is she so dramatic?
Why are you so moody, man?
You've been weirdly happy lately,
but today you look like crap.
Why would you say I look like crap?
Just let me eat my food.
Are you busy?
- Eating dinner with Hwany.
- You have a girlfriend.
Want me to guess who it is? It's too easy.
I can pretend I don't know if you want.
What?
You know who it is?
Ah… Stop treating me like an NPC.
Why wouldn't I know?
I first suspected when it came out
you were staying late on deadline days.
If you need to vent about Mi-rae,
go right ahead.
Ugh, forget it man. I'm not doing that.
You should, dude.
Because that shit'll eat you up.
Okay.
- It's that I'm…
- What?
She upset you, right?
No.
No, it's not that I'm not upset. I'm more…
Angry?
- Seething with rage?
- Hm…
No, I'm not angry.
Oh, you're just sulking.
- Huh?
- Well, yeah.
If you're not angry or upset
at your girlfriend, you must be sulking.
You think… I'm sulking? Really?
Hey, don't be embarrassed.
It happens to everyone, dude.
No, it doesn't happen to me.
Oh, sure.
Yeah, yeah. Of course it doesn't.
So if, hm…
Uh…
When people get sulky, why does it happen?
- [uneasy music playing
- He ignored me?
Ugh!
PARK KYEONG-NAM
Play it cool for once! You're calling him
because he left you on read?
Go on, do it!
Drive it straight to the ground.
I'm going to bed now.
What are you so worried about?
Why are you acting guilty?
You did nothing wrong.
Anyway, if nothing happened,
I'm glad to hear it.
Wait.
Just so you know,
if that man starts acting cold and petty,
just remember that I'm here.
- [pensive music playing
- Huh?
I'm saying, let me know if he gets distant
or if you're not sure how he feels.
Why?
I'll help you out.
Ugh…
Is everything okay?
Okay. Good night.
OKAY, GOOD NIGH
READ
When people get sulky, why does it happen?
Because they care.
Oh?
Wow, bro.
You must really like Mi-rae.
- Did you have break--
- How was your sleep--
Uh.
Oh. I had breakfast.
And I slept very well.
Good.
What's going on?
He's acting so cold.
Why does she keep avoiding eye contact?
So…
- I should get back to work.
- Okay.
BOYFRIEND ON DEMAND
- Isn't that Yun Song?
- I'm sure it is, yeah.
- Are you from the Karrot app?
- Oh, yeah, that's right.
- Does it still need formatting?
- Uh, yeah.
- Do you mind doing it for me right now?
- Okay.
[Jjong You're too nice, my dear Song.
And as for me,
I want to help you get motivated.
If it's too much, it's okay.
I can do it later.
I can transfer you the money right away.
Uh…
Let go.
It, it, it's…
What are you doing?
Are you keeping it?
I'm so sorry.
BOYFRIEND ON DEMAND
I'm gonna go insane.
You're here?
What are you doing?
Well, you said
you didn't have much of an appetite,
so I made carrot soup.
Is that your idea of a joke?
You think it's funny?
Carrot soup, of all things?
What's wrong? You like it.
I put a listing for you up
on Karrot, you know?
- Did I do something wrong?
- Yes, you did do something wrong!
I could've lived my life not knowing,
but now I know it all!
If it weren't for you,
I wouldn't have ended up like this!
Listen, stop lashing out at me
and tell me what's going on.
I don't know.
Everyone's laughing at me
for wanting to date you.
But why?
Who is?
They said we'll never last,
and that we can't be together.
Who, sweetheart?
Everyone but you says it.
Everyone!
It's okay.
Come on, now.
It's okay.
Here.
Mm-mm!
- Do you like it?
- Mm.
Hm.
Why do you like me?
The only reason is you have to, don't you?
Hm.
Why do you like me, hm?
Because you're good-looking,
you're a good cook,
you're nice to me,
and you're sweet.
And funny too.
Then why are you acting like this?
I think because
you have so much going for you,
except one fatal flaw
that tips the scales.
I didn't ask about my pros and cons.
I asked you why you're acting like this.
Do you want this to end?
Tell me what it is. Hm?
You haven't answered yet.
Answer me. I asked why you like me.
Hm…
It's that
I like bringing you joy.
There's no other reason.
I don't mean you liking making me happy.
Why do you like me?
Just me, you know?
My feelings for you
and your happiness don't feel
like different things.
I wouldn't care if you had 10,000 flaws.
But if you can't accept
my one flaw…
then you should go.
Song,
what I care about is how you feel.
Are you upset because of me?
No, it's not your fault.
I'm to blame.
I follow what other people say,
instead of following my heart.
I won't list you on Karrot again.
I don't want to.
My dear, I have no idea what that is. Hm?
You don't have to.
Mm. All right.
Let's have soup while it's hot.
- Here you go.
- Mmm.
- Is it good?
- Delicious.
- It is, isn't it?
- Mmm.
- Yum-yum.
- Yum.
Yummy-yum-yum. Here.
I hid all the fancy ones.
You never know, she might come back.
The fact is, we have to be on guard
till her rage dies down.
Mr. Hwang, how could you axe her
without letting me know first?
I thought you might have trouble
telling her yourself.
I did it for you. Oh, I'm so hurt.
Only Mr. Min said he didn't want to make
an issue out of the plagiarism thing.
And the other thing,
it's her personal life.
I mean, honestly,
you'd think she killed someone.
Until the public reaction dies down,
all her work stays on hold.
Anyway, you should focus on
your other authors.
Well, I guess
we have to put her on a hiatus.
However, I can't agree to her termination.
I forgot.
You're in charge, aren't ya?
- You're my new boss, yay!
- Hey, just stop!
All right, then.
I suppose I could reconsider.
She's on hiatus for now.
But I'm not promising anything.
Now please go.
You're starting to make me feel
a bit uncomfortable.
You going out?
Uh, I need a bit of air.
Just going outside.
Mm.
NAEMO
Hey, sorry. Are you the only one here?
Huh?
Yeah, everyone else left.
Really? Everyone?
Since Ms. Yun's series has been
put on hold, it's all changed.
Mi-rae doesn't have to stay late anymore,
leaving me, the loyal and dedicated
team leader, to hold down the fort.
They've got a lot of nerve though.
Nobody ever let me know.
They just disappear without… Uh?
You too?
Hm? I thought you left.
No. I was working downstairs.
Wait, has everyone
except you left already?
Mm-hmm. Yeah, I guess so.
I haven't said anything about this yet,
but to be perfectly honest,
I feel disrespected.
I think because you're here,
I can talk about an issue.
What?
Uh…
This is the first time
since we started going out
he's left without telling me first.
What does this mean?
- I'M GOING TO BED NOW
- OKAY, GOOD NIGH
- I'M GOING TO A MEETING
- OKAY
THE COOKIES HERE ARE DELICIOUS.
SHOULD I BRING YOU SOME?
NO, I'M GOOD
YOU MUST BE IN A MEETING
ENJOY LUNCH
She left without even telling me.
He's changed.
Ever since he went
into my Boyfriend on Demand,
he's definitely changed.
No message, no text, nothing.
CANCEL YOUR BOD SUBSCRIPTION?
I'll help you out.
Just let me know.
You're back already?
Want a drink?
So, what's up?
You might want to start with
whatever bothers you most.
It's just
that I'm worried about what he's thinking.
I find myself obsessing
over everything he does,
every expression on his face.
I'm glued to my phone all the time,
checking my messages.
It feels like my life is disappearing.
Why not just ask him what's going on?
I don't want to do that.
And you don't want to end things either?
Hm… That's tough…
Even though he's changed
since he found out about me,
you're not sure you want to confront him.
At the same time,
sitting around doing nothing
is making you so nervous
it's driving you crazy.
Have I got that right?
Yes.
We've got to somehow find out
how that man really feels.
How do we do that?
Come, let's go somewhere else.
Seo Mi-rae.
What's this?
What do you think?
We've never met in a city before.
And what are you wearing?
Did your heart flutter?
I wouldn't worry.
It doesn't mean you're interested in me.
It's confusing
when we see the familiar
in a new context all of a sudden.
When people are faced
with an unexpected situation like this,
it can help reveal their true feelings.
Our hearts are incapable of lying.
So, how do I do that?
Hm, good question.
I'm thinking of something elegant
but unusual for you.
In that moment,
we'll confirm if his heart beats for you
the way yours does for him.
Show up at a familiar location,
but like he's never seen you before.
Hello.
- Hi.
- Whoa, you look so pretty!
Hello.
Whoa, she's wearing a skirt!
You look so pretty today.
Wow, look at her.
- Mi-rae.
- Oh, how are you?
Uh, how are you?
Wow! They interviewing you too, huh?
Interview?
Come in. Make yourselves comfortable.
Thanks, but I'm sure our article has
made you pretty uncomfortable, Mr. Hwang.
Oh well, that's okay, really.
Webtoons Monthly is here for an interview.
I'll be glad to see
anything that isn't about Ms. Yun.
Now that awards season is starting
and new series are coming out soon,
Mr. Hwang is kicking into high gear.
Why isn't he here yet?
- Who?
- Mmm.
They're interviewing Mr. Hwang
along with Mr…
Kyeong-nam!
No way.
Holy shit.
Morning.
Hurry up and get in here! Let's go.
- Yes, sir.
- They're waiting for you.
Whoa. Uh.
Are… are you okay?
Oh. Sure, yeah.
Why does she have to look so pretty today?
Confirm, my ass!
The only thing we know is
that my heart's still alive and well!
That guy is something else.
I wasn't expecting a counter-offensive.
Yeah, and all that money
at the salon wasted.
Forget that. A new approach.
We'll figure him out, but in the meantime,
we need to make sure your heart's okay.
Hm?
Leave your heart here.
I want you to think like the Tin Man
in The Wizard of Oz.
Get in the headspace of someone
walking around without a heart.
I'm sure you'll feel a lot less anxious
once you have no heart.
You'll be safer here.
My heart isn't here.
Oh God, there's a bug on your back!
A bug on your back!
- What? Where? Get it off, please!
- Ew!
Get it off! Get it off me,
please, please, please!
Get it off, get it, get it!
- What are you doing?
- Ugh!
Jesus, where was it?
Oh God, that's so freaky.
- Ew!
- It was nothing.
Whoa, she's so badass.
I won't lose my cool.
No matter what happens.
Incredible.
- Whoa!
- Oh my God.
She grabbed it with her bare hands…
Whoa!
Oh, I'm sorry.
The last meeting ended late.
- Hey, no worries.
- Sorry about that.
CUSTOM-TAILORED BOYFRIEND GU YEONG-IL
Uh… before we start, what is that?
- What?
- Oh, Gu Yeong-il.
Ah, this?
We developed it as a special bonus
for our subscribers
who didn't like our themed characters
because they were too predictable.
But it's so popular
that we have a whole team just for it now.
If it's custom-tailored,
does it actually fit everything you want?
We try to make it as close as possible
to the subscriber's ideal man.
Personality, looks, everything.
Wow, he must really be the perfect man.
Well actually, some of our clients say
he's a cut above a human boyfriend.
Not for everybody, though,
as it turns out.
Why not?
Like when we watch a movie,
it's more fun not knowing the end.
You have the man of your dreams
who perfectly fits the bill,
but you know
that they'll always wanna be with you.
Well, that makes it less enjoyable
for some clients.
After all, falling in love is about
giving your heart away freely,
despite having no idea
what the future holds.
I mean, it's not like
love is something that can be mimicked.
It's challenging.
That's true.
With TMK gone, it feels like
I'm robbing a house with no one home.
It's no fun.
It hasn't really been canceled,
though, right? Has it?
I don't really know.
Even if it's possible to take out
the secondary male character's scenes,
there are still tons of loose ends.
We have to get to the bottom
of the aunt's embezzlement scheme
and the secret affair
the chairman's having has to be revealed.
- What if we never find out?
- Try asking Ms. Yun.
I'm sure she'll be glad to tell you,
a fan.
A fan?
Are you crazy?
I only read it
because I wanted to see the artwork
So-yeong poured her blood,
sweat and tears into.
Anyway, that custom boyfriend thing…
Gu Yeong-il?
Do you think So-yeong might have one?
It makes me wonder
what her version might look like?
Uh…
How do you think you would feel
if he looked like you?
Me?
Come on, Kyeong-nam!
I would love it!
That would mean I'm her ideal guy.
Oh, hold on though.
What if he only looks like me,
and he's better than me
in every other way?
That might be bad.
Nah, that's not likely.
There's no contest.
Hm?
Because I actually care.
That silicone asshole
could only pretend to.
How would he have any way of knowing
how pretty and adorable So-yeong is?
Ah… Now I want to go see her.
- I'm sorry, Hwany.
- Huh?
Weren't you heading home
after your meeting?
Seo Mi-rae just went out for treats.
- I should've asked her to get one for you.
- Where is she?
The bakery on the corner.
Jeez.
Me beneath your light…
[sighs[
Oh! What the…
Are…
Uh, did you run here?
I just…
I just wanted to start following my heart.
What?
It brought me to you.
I wanna be with you.
Is that okay?
When I find you're home…
Well…
I know that this must be love
In my eyes You're dearest
I don't fear the silence beside you
You don't need…
It's okay.
You know, that's what I want too.
Are you sure this is a good idea?
Yes, absolutely. She's the best choice
to strengthen our scenarios, Mr. Min.
Well, I guess we'll see.
She probably stays home all day
watching dating shows and gaming online.
I'm not expecting
great communication skills.
You're with Boyfriend on Demand,
is that right?
Yes. That's right.
Boyfriend on Demand.
Mm.
This is a first for us too.
But we were honestly so impressed
by your analysis of our boyfriend themes.
That's why we contacted you.
Ms. Ji-yeon,
tell me what you'd like?
For starters, do a complete review
for each of the boyfriend scenarios,
then turn those into a book and so on.
So you're meeting all 900 of them?
Yeah. I've almost met them all.
When will you live your actual life?
No, what I meant was…
Huh?
Don't worry, I am living my actual life.
What? Do you think I spend
all my time online? Ha! Not at all!
Oh, I'm sorry.
What else do you like to do for fun?
To be honest, hmm…
dating.
Uh, Ms. Ji-yeon! Ms. Ji-yeon!
Yes?
I forgot to give you my card,
if you want it.
Oh…
That's great, thank you.
It was really nice to meet you.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Oooh!
Ah! Um, there's a ledge there. It's…
It's all good.
- See you soon.
- Yes.
Uh…
I guess I do look pretty hot.
- What name is it under, did you say?
- Sung Ji-eun.
- You here already?
- Right this way.
Did you park on the ground floor
or in the basement?
- Hello. Mic test. One, two. One, two.
- Thanks a lot.
- Where should I put this?
- Next to the stage, please.
- Sure.
- Mic test. Hello, mic test. Good?
These ones are for family members.
Nominees have assigned seats,
so you can sit in front.
Oh! Seo Mi-rae, come here. Yeah.
This is the winner
of the Best Romance-Fan Award.
Oh, nice to meet you. I loved your series.
Oh, thanks very much.
Ms. Seo will be managing you from now on.
- Oh.
- Yun Song?
She owes Ms. Seo here everything,
you know.
Oh! I can't wait to work together.
Neither can I.
I'd better go, but I'll see you later.
- Don't go far.
- Sure.
There's so much to do.
- Did you meet her? How did she seem?
- Yeah.
I've been going over her work so much,
I felt like I already knew her.
I'm oddly proud of her too.
Oh yeah, wouldn't it be nice if we got
to be on the jury again next year?
I don't know.
We might argue about it all the time.
Stop with those scary eyes.
Hey! What if someone catches us?
Oh! I just realized.
- The storage room.
- Huh?
There's a scene like this
in every workplace romance.
Alone in the storage room.
Just us.
- Stop messing with me.
- So what if we get caught?
Hm… Just not at work, that's all.
Why not?
Are you embarrassed?
Kyeong-nam, are the picket signs in here?
Whoa, whoa!
Oh, Kyeong-nam!
Are you okay?
No wonder something felt off.
I should've known
my love life would end up like this.
- Hold on, be careful.
- Taxi!
- Oh no, that's bad.
- Mr. Choi, go with him.
- Take care.
- I'll let you know, okay?
What the hell?
How did it happen? Do you know?
Something fell on him, I think.
- Oh.
- Mi-rae!
- Where are you going?
- Mi-rae!
Hey, you. Get out of the way.
Go on. Hey, I said move.
Why are you standing
in the doorway, anyway?
- Oh!
- Go! Move out of the way.
Unbelievable, jeez.
Seo Mi-rae?
What's wrong?
Are you okay?
Oh no, is it broken?
Hey, Is there…
There is!
Oh my…
Does this mean…
You probably don't need me to stay, right?
Tell me you're all right.
- Hm?
- Uh, uh…
I'll go, okay?
- Thank you.
- Yeah, no worries.
And I won't say a word,
but you have to fill me in later.
I want details, okay? You have to!
It's broken, isn't it?
It's okay.
Why did you run all the way here?
Why not just wait there?
- I can't believe I hurt you like this.
- It was just an accident.
It wasn't.
I meant to push you.
Because I was scared
of what would happen if
anyone at work found out we're together.
I pushed you 'cause I was scared.
I'm sorry.
Also,
there's something I should tell you.
After you found out
about Boyfriend on Demand,
I went back to see Gu Yeong-il.
Why?
At first, because I wanted to know
what you two had talked about.
And afterwards…
because I was afraid
of how much I liked you.
Afraid it was too much.
Which would only lead to suffering.
But that's all stuff we can't control.
I'm a coward, I guess.
Yeah.
But I guess I'm one too.
The first time I saw
Gu Yeong-il, I thought,
"He's everything I am, but better."
My first instinct was grab him
and get him tell me everything
as it happened from the beginning.
But I have too much pride for that.
If you want--
But now I think, "Who cares?"
It's me you chose in the end.
That's what matters most.
Every day I get more afraid
because I'm falling
deeper for you every day.
But what can I do?
You ran all the way here
with a runny nose.
How can I resist?
Easy, easy.
I'm so sorry.
What I want is to
live here, in this moment.
That's enough.
Those who don't doubt the future
and only look at
the love in front of them,
I only draw those people.
Hm.
Sounds great.
Oh!
You know what?
Come to the States! All of you, okay?
- Who am I gonna have team dinners…
- My turn?
…you too, Mr. Hwang.
Oh yeah, that's right.
There's one thing
I wanted to know before I leave.
I heard something really strange, okay?
I heard that Seo Mi-rae
and Park Kyeong-nam
are together.
Huh?
- Yes, it's true.
- That's right.
That's ridiculous.
This guy! You liar, they're not!
You told me they were, but they're not.
Dong-min, you jerk, you totally played me!
Those two obviously
hate each other's guts.
Hey, let me say this one thing
before I leave, okay?
Don't complain about the authors
too much, hm?
It's like spitting into the wind, okay?
The authors need to do well
for us to do well.
I owe you some kernels of wisdom
before I leave, don't I?
- A good boss like me…
- Mind if we join?
- Oh! Uh, ah!
- This is a surprise.
- Hello.
- Hi!
- Ms. Yun, you, uh…
- Hi.
What's wrong?
Uh, nothing. I…
- Just open it.
- What?
What, for me?
Ms. Yun's brought something.
Is this… Could this be… Ah! Shit!
Oh gosh, you didn't!
Ms. Yun, our company's biggest star!
- Thank you so much.
- Aw!
- Aw! Cute!
- It's okay, don't cry.
- Okay, let's make room.
- Oh, sit over here, Ms. Yun.
Oh God, this… I'll put this here.
Wow, this is authentic.
It's the real deal.
Don't touch the rim, careful.
Give it a bit more room. Ah!
Whoa.
- It's a set?
- A bit too much…
- We have to drink to this. Cheers!
- Cheers!
Cheers!
- Mmm!
- Mmm!
Mwah, mwah!
I wanted to tell you,
you look great these days.
- Me?
- Hm.
I've been working out.
I get to the gym first thing
and do the stairs for 30 minutes.
I don't know what it is
but it's actually fun.
I feel so much better.
- Why'd you start going?
- Oh, uh, hold on!
- Uh, I'll get it.
- I just told you!
- Oh!
- Holy shit. What was that?
There you go. Here's new one, Ms. Song.
Thanks very much.
Whoo!
- May our longing for each other
- For each other
- Bring us together someday
- Bring us together someday
- As it does in movies
- Mr. Hwang…
- Oh no.
- Please don't go!
What are we supposed to do if you leave?
I'll be back later this year.
I'll be back soon.
If you guys ignore me when I call you,
I'm telling you, I'll be hurt.
- Really? It's not forever?
- Of course not, just a while.
- Don't forget about us!
- I promise!
- Have a safe trip.
- And take care of yourself.
How do I do that without you guys?
And cut down on the coffee, too,
while you're at it.
Oh, Ms. Yun!
My departure's finally sinking in.
I'm going to miss you.
I know how much this cost.
- Yeah! Let's have a drink!
- Yeah!
Ah!
Cheers!
I'm putting this
on the company card, everyone.
Maybe goodbyes aren't as bad as I thought.
BOYFRIEND ON DEMAND
It's been a while.
Yeah, I know.
Judging by how long
it took you to come back,
it must have gone really well.
Or really…
badly?
Huh.
That's disappointing.
Are you sure you're okay?
You might end up feeling lonelier
and more anxious, you know?
And your feelings won't stay the same
for either of you.
I know that.
And you're okay with it?
Yeah.
Why?
Because that's just how we are.
Despite the dangers involved,
people want adventure.
Hop on. Let's go for a ride.
You know I won't get on.
Take care.
Thanks for everything.
So, what, is this it?
Ms. Seo Mi-rae,
would you like to part ways
with Gu Yeong-il?
You don't have to worry, you know that?
Just follow your heart.
Even when you're afraid.
I know all that now.
When we first met
you were clueless, though.
So long.
PART WAYS WITH GU YEONG-IL?
YES
I'm here!
Hey, baby don't run too fast.
- Be careful.
- Relationships are dangerous.
And love is even more dangerous.
You wouldn't have to run
if you left early, you know?
Pfft. Why are you so serious?
But this time, I think I'll be okay.
Because it's us.
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh, my love
Yeah, you're so wonderful
Want you to know
So wonderful, want you to know
Your light is colorful
Oh, my love
Yeah, you're so beautiful
Want you to know
So beautiful, want you to know
Your light is colorful
Oh, my love
Yeah, you're so wonderful
Want you to know
So wonderful, want you to know
Your light is colorful
