True Beauty (2020) s01e01 Episode Script

1
-Hello.
-Hi.
-This is your second child?
-Yes.
He's a sturdy-looking fellow.
She is a baby girl.
But Hee-kyung is so pretty…
How are you so pretty, Hee-kyung?
She'll run for Miss Korea, right?
Ever since I was young,
I could tell from the looks people gave me
that I'm not pretty.
General.
-General!
-You did it, Grandpa!
-Can you take that back?
-No.
-Please take that back.
-No way!
In Korean chess, what's done is done.
-How did it go? Who won?
-No takebacks.
-Really?
-I can't take it back.
By the way,
how is it that Ju-kyung
solely takes after her mom's side?
She'd be better off
if she had Jae-pil's eyes.
-Consider getting her plastic surgery.
-Come on.
-Don't say that.
-Honey.
-She doesn't look like our family.
-Father!
-Grandpa!
-You'll hurt her feelings.
Your grades are all that matter, got it?
Cartoons had me dreaming
of a magical transformation
where an average-looking girl
turns into a pretty fairy in a flash.
-What the heck?
-What is that?
-What is she?
-What is that?
She must think she's a fairy or something.
She thinks she's a princess.
Now, turn into an ugly monster!
Go away, you monster!
That was when I realized…
CURSED MASK
…I'm more of a heroine
with a cursed mask in horror comics
rather than a girl in romance comics.
CURSED MASK
The depiction of the professor
who throws himself into meaningless work
reports on modern society's absurdity.
Let's look at the question below.
You'll find different types.
Among them, number one is…
I didn't realize it was time already.
Hand in the homework by tomorrow.
That's it for today.
-Okay.
-Let's hit the snack bar.
Let's go.
-Hey, Sam-mi.
-Got it.
My hair got flat.
Who told you to sleep in class?
-Goodness.
-I'm sorry!
-What are you doing?
-You're here.
What?
BASED ON WEBTOON TRUE BEAUTY
BY YAONGYI
Would you like to read this?
Not sure.
Would you like to listen to this?
Not sure.
Sam-mi, I want to try your lip tint.
Using her lip tint won't do you any good.
Not doing it for you, am I?
You're pissing me off.
Hey, look at her.
-What is she doing?
-How ridiculous.
Hey, Dumpling.
-Hey, Dumpling.
-Hey, Dumpling.
Hey, Dumpling!
Did you call me?
Who else is called Dumpling here?
What's up?
Don't you have an errand to run?
You mean, now? Got it.
She's going to do the delivery.
She's a professional.
A professional dumpling courier.
Two with meat and one with kimchi, right?
Enjoy your snacks, kids.
-I--
-Ma'am, two dumplings.
It's my turn.
-What the…
-Jeez.
Here you go. Enjoy!
-Thanks!
-Thanks!
-Two with meat and--
-One with kimchi, right?
Yes.
Thank you.
Hey, you came!
Is Hyun-bin not here yet?
Hey, girl.
Hyun-bin.
Wait, is this…
Crash?
I knew you'd get it right away.
Of course. This one's a classic.
Just as I thought.
You and I have the same musical taste.
One moment.
You're so dreamy.
Now that's what I'm talking about.
Calm down, heart. Stop acting up.
Stop acting up.
Stop acting up!
Sorry, what did you say?
Nothing.
-Get it.
-Hey!
-Jeez.
-Where's Dumpling?
Is she making the dumplings herself?
Goodness, look at her.
Why? What is it?
-What is it?
-What?
Who is that person?
Isn't that the guy
who always flirts with you
at the cafeteria?
Maybe they have something in common.
-Enjoy your meal.
-Thanks.
Isn't Hyun-bin so dreamy?
Not sure.
He said we have
the same taste in music earlier,
and he smiled at me just now.
Don't you think he likes me a little?
Not sure.
I'll tell him how I feel tomorrow.
Great idea, right?
Not sure.
Hey, look at Ju-kyung.
Black tights with white socks.
-Horrifying. Hey.
-What?
Would you date her for ten million won?
-Not even for a hundred million won.
-Me neither.
I'll have my lunch later.
What?
Come on, move.
-Enjoy your meal.
-Thank you.
-Come on.
-The kimchi looks great.
Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
Hey, Hyun-bin.
Can we meet up for a second
during tomorrow's lunch hour?
Tomorrow?
Sure.
Hey, look at Dumpling.
She's really trying to make a move?
Do it harder.
What brought you out, son?
-Are you hungry? Want some fruit?
-No.
Lim Ju-kyung.
What were you doing in the kitchen
instead of studying?
I just worked on some things.
You should work on your grades.
Your last test scores dropped again--
Fine. I'll work on it.
Lim Ju-kyung! I'm still talking.
Where are you going?
She said she's got it.
Let me get your neck.
I don't get who she takes after.
-Come on, do my left side.
-Okay.
I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER.
CAN YOU RETURN MY INVESTMENT?
Focus.
Yes, one second.
The door is open.
-My daughter, you're home!
-Yes.
I need to go now, right now.
Number one? Number two?
Number two.
-I'm in here!
-Hey, you little…
I could make you eat my hot dump!
-Use the one in the master bedroom.
-Master bedroom…
-It's coming.
-Hold it in.
-It's coming.
-Don't move too much.
Don't forget to breathe.
Try Lamaze breathing.

TO HYUN-BIN
"You are a dummy."
"A dummy for not knowing
how I feel about you."
"And I'm a dummy
for only thinking about you."
"You dummy.
Of course, I know how you feel."
My gosh!
"Will you be my girlfriend
starting today?"
Hey, Lim Ju-bal, keep the music…
I want to poke my eyes out!
What's wrong with her?
JEONG SE-YEON, I'LL ALWAYS
KEEP YOU IN MY HEAR
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SE-YEON.
HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY IN HEAVEN.
His fans are funny.
Didn't they all trash-talk him
before his death?
And now they are pretending to be sad?
They're so two-faced.
I'm going to tell my crush
how I feel today.
I'm so nervous.
Cheer me on for courage.
I'm so nervous.
I admire your courage. You can do it!
I hope he likes you back!
LET US KNOW HOW IT GOES
-Hey. Seriously, stop it.
-Watch it.
Jeez.
Hey, Sam-mi is here.
-Really?
-Where? Let me see.
-It's really Sam-mi.
-Let her through.
-She looks prettier in person.
-She's beautiful.
Hey, give Sam-mi your seat.
Sam-mi, you can sit here.
-She's so stunning.
-Look at her.
Her look is unmatched.
I can't believe this.
What? She sat on his lap?
What is this?
What the heck?
I'm sorry.
What the…
-Hey.
-I'll get you the dumplings.
What was that?
-Look what she brought.
-What?
-Dumpling brought something?
-What's this?
What? Cookies?
-So ugly.
-Looks tacky.
At least she tried.
"You are a dummy."
"A dummy for not knowing
how I feel about you."
"I'm a dummy too."
Jeez, the lines are so lame.
-Hey.
-Yes?
Is she asking him out today?
Well…
Can't even get a word out?
I guess like attracts like.
Hyun-bin.
Yes, Sam-mi. What's up?
Are you busy?
Do you have something to say to me?
Well…
Are you dating Lim Ju-kyung?
What?
-Why do you ask?
-I was shocked when I heard the rumor.
You are like clean spring water,
and she's like sewer water way downstream.
You are way out of her league.
Yes, of course.
She must have mistaken your kindness
and thought that she had a shot.
Right?
I know I'm too nice.
To be honest,
the rumor that you're
going out with Ju-kyung
really broke my heart.
I'm the bad guy for making you upset.
Seriously, it's unforgivable.
Hyun-bin, you bad guy!
Hyun-bin, don't do that.
You could hurt your handsome face.
I'll see you again later.
Later when?
Today? I have some time now too.
Right now…
Perhaps soon?
All right, Sam-mi.
I'll DM you. See you soon.
Yes, let's.
I'll send you a message!
-That was so easy.
-So naive.
MORNING CARE
AESTHETICIAN LICENSE
Done. Perfect!
Both brows are symmetrical
like a decalcomania.
Your eye is as keen as ever.
-Can I have some coffee before I go?
-Of course, dear client.
Now, let me see.
It came out too subtle last time.
Natural and subtle are very on-trend.
But I want them to be noticeable.
All right, just leave them to me.
By the way, your handsome husband
hasn't been around lately.
I'm not sure what he's up to.
He's on the phone at all times.
Maybe he's having an affair.
Let him have an affair.
I'm okay as long as it's not about money.
What is it? You want your eyebrows done?
Who's Lim Jae-pil's wife?
What is this?
These are concert tickets,
cookies I've made,
-and…
-And what?
And…
my heart.
Hyun-bin, I like you.
What?
Are you asking me out or something?
I'm Hyun-bin.
Wang Hyun-bin.
Sorry?
Okay.
You thought I would date you
if you said you liked me?
You told me
I'm a good person the other day,
and we have the same taste.
Hey.
I took pity on you for being bullied.
Is this how you repay me?
Hey.
If you don't have the looks,
you should at least be sharp-witted.
Know your place.
Instead of wasting your time like this,
take a look in the mirror.
-You're recording this, right?
-Gosh, poor Dumpling.
So that's how the ugliest person
in our school confessed her feelings.
A round of applause, everyone!
Let's hear your thoughts
on being crushed by your crush.
-Let's hear it.
-Let's hear it.
Goodness, you look really ugly on camera.
-Hey, come on tell us.
-Stop it.
You're already in the video.
Come on, say something.
I said, stop it.
-"I said, stop it."
-Hey.
Who do you think you're pushing?
Have you lost it?
Why do you hate me so much?
Why do you hate me?
I haven't done anything wrong to you,
but why do you hate me so much?
Hey.
Do you really want to know?
Because you are ugly.
You have cooties now.
-Right.
-Don't come near me.
-I forgot about that.
-Don't be ridiculous.
-Come on.
-Stop it.
-That was just like her. Do it again.
-"Stop it."
Did you see how she fell earlier?
"I said, stop it."
-Where is she going?
-"I said, stop it."
Where are you going?
-"I said, stop it."
-Look at her crying. I hate it.
Whatever.
YONGPA HIGH ANONYMOUS FORUM
The guy is lousy too.
She has neither looks nor good taste.
-She's the ugliest girl at school.
-She has confidence despite her looks.
How is she going to
show her face at school?
Damn it!
Instead of wasting your time like this,
take a look in the mirror.
If you don't have the looks,
you should at least be sharp-witted.
Know your place.
Because you are ugly.
Look, everyone.
Here comes our superstar!
-Troll!
-Troll!
-Troll!
-Guys, look at that!
-Troll!

Nobody likes me.
How can I possibly go to school tomorrow?

CELEBRATING THE 18TH BIRTHDAY
OF JEONG SE-YEON
CELEBRATING THE 18TH BIRTHDAY
OF JEONG SE-YEON
What a shame.
He was only 18.
I…
I don't want to die.
It's so cold.
What a relief.
What was that about?
My glasses.
Where are they?
My glasses.
My glasses.
I can't see anything without my glasses.
Where are they?
What were you doing?
Were you going to jump?
Are you crazy?
Are you out of your mind?
Why would you do that?
What's troubling you so badly?
Why would you make such a choice?
I wasn't going to kill--
Face your life with such courage.
Haven't you thought of
the people you'd leave behind
and how much they would grieve?
-Well…
-Someone out there
might suffer forever with guilt…
for failing to save you.
Did you think about that?
There's nothing you can do…
for a dead person.
So don't do it.
What?
Are you going to jump after I leave?
No.
Well…
Hold on.
My glasses.
My glasses. Wait up!
ELEVATOR MAINTENANCE CHECK
What is it?
Is it out of order?
Wait for me, sir.
Wait for me.
Wait up.
I lost my glasses because of you
and can't see anything.
My prescription is negative eight.
Without my glasses,
I can't tell what's what.
Hey.
Are you still there?
He really must be gone.
What's with my life?
What?
You didn't leave?
Hold my hand and get up.
Okay.
Watch where you're grabbing!
I didn't do it on purpose.
Just get on my back.
Thank you.
I'm heavier than I look, right, sir?
You look heavy too.
Why are you calling me "sir"?
Excuse me.
I have a question, sir.
Why were you also up on the--
Ma'am,
just speak up.
It echoes if I don't whisper.
It's scary.
And don't call me "ma'am."
I'm wearing a school uniform.
Did someone you know
jump from a rooftop?
I'm just saying.
We don't even know each other,
but you saved me and got so angry.
That's why I wondered
if someone close to you had died.
If you say one more word,
I'll drop you right here.
How are you so heavy?
You can do it!
Ma'am!
Okay, I'll stop.
I'm shutting up.
Sir,
wasn't it out of order?
It was just a maintenance check.
You didn't hear the announcement?
Maybe we should have waited.
Excuse me, sir!
Seriously?
What is it?
Well…
I know I'm not in a place
to be saying this…
but hang in there.
The dead…
wouldn't have wanted the people
they left behind to suffer for too long.
So please be happy.
You have to be.
-Sir, please take me to Bucheon.
-Okay.
Why did you go even up there
when you don't have the courage to do it,
you idiot?
Darn it, those were fairly new glasses.
Mom's going to be furious.
After the beep,
your call will be forwarded to voicemail
and will be charged accordingly.
Mom, I wanted to hear your voice.
Never mind.
I guess this is better.
I don't think I could bring myself to die
after hearing your voice.
Thanks for having me…
and raising me for the last 18 years.
I'll reincarnate as your daughter
again in my next life.
I'll see you then.
Please make me pretty
the next time you have me.
Oh, no.
What if she already heard it?
She can't.
Why won't she answer?
Sir, can you drive faster, please?
Sure.
Pick it up, please.
MY DAUGHTER JU-KYUNG
Mom? Hey, take her to her room.
Let go.
You idiot.
What's in the sea near Ulleungdo?
A treasure ship? You bought that?
It's not entirely unbelievable.
Historically, in 1800…
In 1905, during the Russo-Japanese War--
Forget about the Russo-Japanese War.
You and I are going to have a war!
-Stop her! No!
-Wait! Mom, please!
Mom, please don't!
-Hey, hold her!
-Let go of me.
It's a historical fact
that the cruiser Donskoi sank.
My life is on the brink of sinking
because of you!
Is half a billion won a petty sum to you,
you rotten bastard?
Why did you invest
that kind of money there?
How are you still living in a fantasy
at the age of 50?
Dad, tell her you are sorry! Come on!
-Come on!
-I'm really sorry.
Hyun-sook, I'm sorry.
Please forgive me just for once.
Forget it.
I'll kill you tonight
and gladly go to prison!
No!
Mom, hold on!
-No!
-Don't!
-Wait. I'm sorry!
-Mom!
Hang on.
-Freeze.
-Mom!
-Stop.
-Hang on.
Come here. You're holding out on me?
-Calm down.
-How dare you.
Look at that.
Seriously?
The dead…
wouldn't have wanted the people
they left behind to suffer for too long.
So please be happy.
Stop crying.
Mom!
I'm going to off myself…
Mom.
Why would you say that?
Hey, you're home.
How can I possibly leave you guys behind?
Let's just die together.
All of us.
-I won't say such things again.
-Together.
Please don't cry.
How could I not cry in this situation?
Gosh, what's up with my life?
Why didn't you make me pretty then?
Hee-kyung and Ju-young take after Dad.
That's why I did it!
-What?
-Am I wrong?
I'm the only one who's ugly
because I take after you!
What did you just say?
Hey, read the room.
Lim Ju-bal, shut it.
I won't kill myself,
so let me get plastic surgery.
-Then everything will be okay.
-What?
What's this nonsense?
I could kick you out too!
You must also prefer a pretty daughter
to an ugly one!
Don't add to my troubles. Leave.
I said, leave!
-Let me get surgery.
-Let's go.
I want surgery.
I'm the only one who looks like you!
-I want plastic surgery.
-Come on.
HYE-MIN
CHA
ARE YOU UP, HYE-MIN?
TODAY'S THE DAY!
JUST THE THOUGHT OF IT MAKES ME NERVOUS…
I must have been the only one
who thought we were friends.
I really have no one starting tomorrow.
I want to drop out.
Hey, Ju-kyung.
-Are you asleep?
-I'm about to.
I'm taking Mom out for a drink,
so you sleep, okay?
Why did I leave that voicemail?
I just broke Mom's heart.
After…
we bought this apartment,
I couldn't sleep for days
because I was so happy.
-You're selling it?
-What else can I do?
Selling our old place won't pay much
seeing how nobody wants to rent it.
We'll sell it, settle the debt,
-and move back to our old place.
-Don't.
I'll get my severance pay early,
take out some loans, and we'll be--
Nonsense.
He's my husband, so I'll settle it myself.
It's not your problem.
Let Dad come back home.
Kicking him out in his underwear
in this cold is too harsh.
Whatever.
I don't care if he freezes to death.
BEAUTY SALON
Honey, I'm so sorry.
Please stop.
I'M GOING TO TELL MY CRUSH
HOW I FEEL TODAY…
-I admire your courage.
-I hope he likes you back!
Let us know how it goes.
Did you do it?
Do you have a boyfriend now?
Answer us! Where's your follow-up?
Guys, I actually got rejected.
No one likes me because I'm ugly.
Oh, no.
Focus on studying.
A full-body makeover?
Plastic surgeons can reinvent you.
My grades aren't good,
and my mom said no to plastic surgery.
Are you good at makeup?
You could totally make up for your looks.

This is unbelievable.
This is it.
What?
-What?
-What the…
-Why are they staring?
-What?
Because of the video?
My goodness.
Or…
Do I look prettier now?
This is insane! Hurry, take her picture.
Hey.
Did you use a marker as an eyeliner?
-This is unbelievable.
-It's crazy.
-Take a picture.
-I'm going to keep this.
-You look so pretty.
-This is gold.
-It's unbelievable.
-Hey, smile.
-They let you leave the house like this?
-She's a beauty.
-Smile!
-You look so pretty.
-What's with your eyeliner?
-Smile for us.
-Hey, smile!
-Smile.
-I'm crying.
-It's ridiculous.
-I'm crying too.
-Look here!
Yes, I need to sell it fast.
We need the money quickly.
As soon as possible, please.
Thank you.
Mom.
What in the world
have you done to your face?
You almost gave me a heart attack.
I just put some makeup on.
Is it that bad?
This isn't makeup.
It's costume makeup!
Did you just get back
from filming a horror movie?
Wash it off immediately!
I'm too embarrassed to go back to school.
Mom, I want to transfer schools.
Will you please let me?
Goodness, you don't have to beg for it.
We're moving back to our old place,
so you have to transfer.
Really? You mean that, right?
Yes!
You really can't read the room, can you?
Read what? I feel like dancing!
I'm transferring schools!
Are you mocking me right now?
I'm home.
You're back.
I almost peed myself.
-Lim Ju-young, I'll kill you.
-Why would you kill my precious son?
Why?
A horror movie?
If I go to school like this…
Is my makeup really that weird?
TEEN GODDESS FORUM
I want to stop being an outcast
before transferring.
Help me out.
-This is awful.
-Are you a ghost?
Do something about your caterpillar brows.
"Caterpillar"?
They do look like caterpillars.
Check out the third most popular post.
It'll help!
"Most popular post"?
Hi, pretty ladies! Here's how to make
your eyes look twice as big.
On one, two, three!
What the…
That's incredible.
Yes,
this is it.
The incident was a huge deal,
almost costing my parents their marriage,
but it was a chance for me
to live a new life.
Welcome.
What perfects your look is the lips.
I'll use this lip tint.
How do I look?
Hey Seluvies,
I hope you managed to
reinvent yourselves today.
Reinvent myself?
Please follow Selena all the way.
Oh, no.
No.
It's okay.
I have to draw them on anyway.
It's okay.
Calm down.
Aren't you going to pack?
What is she up to lately?
Focus.
Unbelievable.
GARDEN OF BLOOD 3
You Are the Devil.
-You Are the Devil.
-What?
-Do you have the latest volume?
-Yes.
I put it in the horror section earlier.
I haven't seen you in a while.
He's always been the same
for the past ten years.
The book…
The first page is ripped.
Sorry?
-The kids who borrowed it must've done it.
-But why?
That's outrageous.
Can't you just skip the first page?
You can still understand the story
even if you skip a page.
When singing the national anthem,
do you skip the first verse
and start from the second?
When you watch soccer games,
do you skip the first half
and start at the second?
You probably skip January
and start the year in February
with that kind of logic.
I see your point.
I'll put in a new order
and let you know immediately,
so if you come by tomorrow…
He never changes.
Ju-kyung.
Wake up. We're almost there.
All right.
PRINCE COMICS
Okay.
Oh, no.
Sorry about that.
Chocolate brown colored lenses, check.
Create some depth to the lids
with light brown eyeshadow,
and finish by dabbing eyeshadow
to the under-eye area
to give the illusion of bigger eyes.
LIM JU-KYUNG
"Good first impression makeup" finished.
I went through so much
to get away from this place.
I thought I had made one step forward,
but now I'm back.
Those eight years went down the drain.
-You've become eight years younger.
-What?
Yes, honey. It's so nice to be back here.
It's romantic and makes me think
of our honeymoon.
Romantic, my foot.
Ju-kyung, come down and eat…
No thanks. I don't feel like eating.
Even if you don't, you…
Who are you?
What?
I'm off to school!
Hey, look. Who is that?
-She's really pretty.
-Who is she?
-I've never seen her.
-She's so pretty.
She's so beautiful.
-She's so pretty.
-She looks like a goddess.
She's stunning.
-She's so pretty.
-I wish I was that pretty.
She's gorgeous.
-Amazing.
-She's stunning.
-She's so pretty.
-My goodness.

She's so pretty!
Unbelievable.
She's a true beauty.
Did he just…
call me a true beauty?
-I'm jealous.
-She's so pretty.
-I wish I looked like that.
-Unbelievable.
-I'm jealous.
-She's so pretty.
-She's so pretty.
-Yes, she is.
She's so pretty.
Where's the teachers' office?
What the…
She's beautiful.
STOP ACTING LADYLIKE
STOP ACTING LIKE A MODEL STUDEN
WHAT?
WATCH IT!
You haven't moved that far,
but it still feels rather strange, right?
It's okay. I used to live here
until I was ten years old.
That's good to hear.
Here you go.
You are now a student at Saebom High.
Thank you.

My goodness!
I hear the new transfer student
was top of the class at their last school.
That must be you, right?
Let me see her files.
Would you look at her?
She looks like a model student.

I was wrong.
My goodness!
You must be the top student!
Take a good look.
You can tell he's smart
just by looking at him.
Please excuse us.
Of course, go ahead.
Introduce him to the class.
That's the vice principal.
Don't mind what he said.
There's more to life than your grades.
Okay.
My goodness!
Here comes our top student
in the junior class!
No wonder the room suddenly lit up!
He's really handsome.
Look at him.
Even his greeting is charming.
Just a nod.
-Here you go, sir.
-Thank you.
I feel like I've heard that voice before.
Ask the class president next time.
Okay.
I've never seen
such a handsome face in my life.
Hey, Soo-ho.
She's a new student in our class.
Can you walk her to our classroom?
Must I do that?
Yes,
you must.
-Go after him.
-Okay.
Wait up.
He's so handsome.
On top of that perfect body,
he's the top of the class?
God is really unfair.
Hey, Soo-ho.
Damn it.
It's supposed to be transfer-proof.
Do we know each other?
Why did you say my name?
Soo-ho, I mean…
Do you have a moment?
-I don't have a moment.
-It won't take long.
I have something to tell you.
-You have three seconds.
-What?
-One,
-Soo-ho, I mean…
-two, three.
-I've had a crush on you since…
-My answer is, "No."
-Please at least take this.
LEE SOO-HO
Hey, wait.
What do I do?
Hold on.
Is my makeup still intact?
One, two.
-Hi!
-Soo-ho, you're here!
Hey, hold on.
What's that on your back?
Is that on trend?
It's very cool.
-What is that on his back?
-Isn't it makeup?
Thankfully, my eyes didn't get smudged.
Hey!
What's wrong with him?
I just bought this.
This is your new classmate, Lim Ju-kyung.
Do you want to say hi?
Hi, nice to meet you all.
-You're so pretty!
-Hi.
-You're so pretty!
-Being pretty changed things.
The way people look at me changed.
You're so pretty!
You're pretty!
Except for one person.
The average attractiveness
of our class has gone up now!
-Ahn Hyun-kyu.
-It's gone up.
Don't say such things.
You guys are all beautiful in my eyes.
"Beautiful from far away,
but even more so up close."
That's so lame!
You have no idea how beautiful you are.
Just being 18 years old in itself
is a beautiful and thrilling thing.
So don't try to be something you're not.
Especially you, Su-ah.
Sure.
Why are you so serious all the time?
Ju-kyung…
Right. Take the empty seat next to Soo-ho.
I have bad eyesight.
Is that so?
That seat belongs to a student
who's on leave,
but how about behind Su-ah?
Okay.
Okay, what's your first class?
Mine, right?
Open your textbooks.
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.
You do recall the Blue Deer School poets
from the last class, right?
-No.
-No.
Of course, you wouldn't recall.
-Okay, the Blue Deer School.
-Okay.
With nature as their subject matter,
they pursued human aspirations and values…
-Here.
-Thank you.
Pak Tu-jin, Pak Mok-wol, and Cho Chi-hun.
These three poets formed a club
and published a book together
called The Blue Deer Anthology.
Good work, class.
Make sure to do your homework
by next time.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
It feels so awkward.
I saw you at the gate this morning.
You did?
Hi, new face!
Hi.
What's your number? Type it in for me.
Sure.
What's your Newstagram handle?
I don't have an account.
What? Why not?
Are you trying to be mysterious?
-You'd get so many Newstagram followers.
-That's right.
I love your lip color.
Which lip tint do you use?
Really?
I use…
She's stunning.
She doesn't even seem
to have any makeup on.
Here.
Thank you.
-Kangsu, you're here.
-Yes.
This is Kang Su-jin, my best friend.
I think she's the goddess of our school,
but now that you're here, maybe not.
Watch out, Kangsu.
Enough with the butt-slapping.
Ju-kyung, was it? Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too.
By the way, you're really pretty.
Are you a trainee or something?
She talks a lot, doesn't she?
She's like that. Try to be understanding.
No, it's okay.
Granted, it was my fault.
But did he have to throw it to my face?
I'll get it cleaned all right.
What?
But why…
Why is it not coming out?
It's waterproof. What do I do?
This is bad.
I'm sorry.
Hey, I'll get this dry cleaned and--
-Throw it away.
-Sorry?
Why would you throw it away?
I'll get it cleaned and return it to you!
Ju-kyung.
What's up with Lee Soo-ho?
I got something on his jacket,
and he wants me to throw it away.
He's throwing a fit over nothing again.
That's just how he is.
He's good-looking, so he's a sociopath.
Is that so?
So he's got a rotten temper.
-Ju-kyung, how about some dumplings--
-Sure, I'll go get them.
That's not what I meant.
I was suggesting
that we go get them together.
-Together?
-Yes.
You're not giving her space
to make new friends.
What's the problem?
She's mine from now on.
You really are outgoing.
I have to hand it to you.
By the way, what are you into?
I do like heavy metal and horror comics…
-Reading and listening to music.
-What kind of music?
I'm a huge fan of ATEEN.
And I love spicy food.
I love spicy food too.
Really? That's great!
Then do you want to get
some tteokbokki after school
to celebrate our friendship?
Sounds great,
friend.
-You in, Tu-jin?
-Yes. But I'm not Tu-jin, I'm Su-jin.
Su-jin.
Sure, Ms. Second-brightest-in-our-school.
She's neck and neck in grades with Soo-ho.
She got the looks and the brains.
You're not like that, are you?
I'm not smart.
That's perfect.
Just stick to your good looks, like me.
But I'm not pretty.
Su-ah, you need to study a little.
-Why?
-I'll help you.
-We'll do it together.
-No.
-Pretty girls still need to study.
-Whatever.
Join us, Ju-kyung.
-All right. You can dig in now.
-Okay.
-Let's eat.
-Enjoy.
-How is it?
-It's so good.
-Right? I told you so.
-Yes.
I'm going to eat too.
But it's rather spicy.
Come on, Su-jin. Just this once. Please?
-No, I have a tutor coming over.
-Come on.
Just for ten minutes.
-I'll get scolded by my mom.
-Just five minutes then. Let's go.
I can't even spare five minutes for you.
Ju-kyung, let's try everything in here.
Got it, Su-jin?
A NEWBIE IN LIFE
A MASTER IN GAMES
Did you see? I'm in first.
How come I can't get any?
Hey, it's the shark.
I got it!
You're almost there.
Come on!
You got it! Well done, Ju-kyung!
Goodness.
Try it, Ju-kyung.
-Step right here.
-Here?
-Like this.
-Like this?
-Hit the left panel.
-The left?
You're doing well.
-Should we take one?
-Sure.
You look really cute.
Here we go.
-Move over.
-Please look here!
-Is this your first time? Look here.
-I see.
-Smile!
-Yes. Strike a pose.
No matter how badly I wanted it
or how hard I tried,
it had always eluded me.
Having friends.
I finally have friends of my own.
Come on.
Get up.
It's been a while for you.
Why push so hard?
Just because.
To get better sleep.
Are you having trouble sleeping again?
Seems like it's gotten worse.
Fine, then.
I'll help you sleep like a baby tonight.
You need to try harder.
Hey.
Come on, it hurts.
MY FRIEND SU-AH INVITED
MY FRIEND SU-JIN AND LIM JU-KYUNG
MY FRIEND SU-AH:
DID EVERYONE GET HOME SAFE?
Is this what they call…
a "group chat"?
I'm in a group chat now!
Did everyone get home safe?
Yes, what about Su-jin?
-Kangsu doesn't keep up with the messages.
-I see. By the way, I made a Newstagram.
My handle is imzoo00.
Awesome. Following you right now.
I'm with my tutor.
These are photos from today.
Just keep the ones you like.
What are you doing?
You are my sister, but I have to say this.
You're really ugly.
-What did you say?
-Everyone's calling you a goddess.
Maybe I should share this picture.
Lim Ju-young, delete that picture at once!
Come here! Seriously.
-Take it if you can.
-Delete it.
Delete it. I mean it.
-You punk.
-"You punk."
-I'll get you.
-"I'll get you."
What's the matter? It's the real you.
Do you want this?
Too slow. Right? Left?
Let go.
You're so busted.
Hey, young lady.
Where are your manners?
This is chilling.
As if a dagger is poised
to pierce my heart.
But there's no need to worry.
The hands are faster than the eyes.
-Come here!
-It hurts! Let go!
ENTER YOUR PASSCODE
Do you think I'm stupid?
What is it you want?
The latest volume of You Are the Devil.
Then will you delete it?
We'll see.
I could break your wrist off.
Which one should I upload
to the anonymous forum?
Don't!
I'll double your deal.
How about the new volume and cup noodles?
Deal.
What a relief.
I followed you.
You've uploaded some pictures.
Gosh, you have tons of likes
when you've just started.
Really?
-Can we be friends?
-You're a goddess.
-Please follow me back.
-Surreal. So pretty.
I have over 100 likes?
-You're a goddess.
-You're so pretty.
"Goddess"?
There's no way.
I could run into people from school.
PRINCE COMICS
This place hasn't changed a bit.
I wonder if the owner is the same.
It still has the same vibe.
Welcome.
Hello, sir. You're still here!
-Who are…
-Don't you remember me?
Lim Ju-bal?
Yes, sir.
You're back.
I heard Ms. Hong was moving back.
How long has it been?
About eight years?
Gosh, has it been that long?
That little kid has grown up
and you're still…
Ugly Ju-bal?
No, you're as cute as ever.
That's a good one.
I love the smell of the comics.
What?
My scribbles are still here.
RESERVED FOR LIM JU-KYUNG
SIT HERE AND YOU'LL GROW BUTT HAIR
This is it.
There's no other place
with this many horror comics.
Where is it?
Found it.
YOU ARE THE DEVIL
I got here first.
I picked it out first.
Lee Soo-ho?
You're…
I'm busted.
THANK YOU TO LEE TAE-RI
FOR HIS SPECIAL APPEARANCE
AND TO CREATORS YEONDUKONG
AND DAMS BEAUTY FOR THEIR HELP
I'll make sure he'd never even
dream of my being Lim Ju-kyung.
What if he knows?
Do you feel guilty or something?
He'll take pity on me
and not spread the word.
Hey. You've seen me before, right?
What kind of absurd coincidence is this?
Are you seeing Soo-ho?
Right now?
You have something for me. Bring it over.
Lim Ju-kyung without makeup
or with makeup?
What on earth does he want me to bring?
