I Need Romance (Romaenseuga Pilyohae / 로맨스가 필요해)

Episode 16

Sometimes, he comes to find me.

On those days, I go home with him.

I miss the first bus so that he can look at me longer.

I miss the second bus too.

I get on the third bus and sit by the window so he can see me.

I know he follows me, but I don't look back.

He may follow me because he misses me, but he never calls my name.

Sometimes, I want to smile at him.

But we don't make eye contact.

He may wait for me to turn off the lights.

But I don't fall asleep until I hear him leave.

I hear him leave.

I don't wait for him to come back.

And he decides that he'll never come back.

It's a quiet and slow farewell.

That's how the second man left.

The most important man to a woman is the next man.

The first and second don't matter.

After the third man, you can't keep track of them by number.

Then how do you keep track?

It's just men, men, men! That's all.

Men are all the same.

A woman's most important man is the last one, don't you think?

We're wandering around looking for that last man.

When on earth is he showing up?

Why do you have to look for him? He'll just show up.

Until then, we just enjoy the romance.

Until you're eighty?

After all that, you won't even last a year.

We'll probably die of a stroke in that year.

Or we'll die alone.

If all you do is make eye contact, it's love. If it lasts only a year, it's still love.

Even if you have a stroke, it's still love.

Don't preach to us. You've been dumped for cheating.

So what?

You should be reflecting on what you've done wrong.

For goodbyes, the 'bye' isn't important. The 'good' is important.

What matters is what's 'good.'

I can't believe her. I'm impressed you're immune to heartbreak.

It's the best quality of all my best qualities.

Wait!

My fart.

Oh my gosh. It fell.

Your farts are getting more powerful.

Stack it up again. I'll make it fall with my farts.

Aren't you embarrassed?

Even if I have to keep searching for that last man, I'm okay.

I'll still have my friends.

I'm gonna be late. Just drop me off at the intersection.

No, I have an appointment at your hotel today.

I have a blind date today.

What about Duk Soo?

I told him about it a couple of days ago....

Duk Soo.

My mom keeps telling me I should meet the guy she told me about last time.

I said my mom wants me to go on a blind date.

Go ahead Hyun Joo. Meet someone good.

Someone who suits you.

What sort of person would suit me?

Someone intellectual and suave.

That's what he said. He didn't even try to stop me.

I think I misjudged his character.

I wonder why he did that. He seemed to really like you.

A man's heart is a mystery.

I was so heartbroken that day.

I'm beginning to wonder if Duk Soo was using me too.

You've read Rimbaud?

I defied definition. I ran away.

Oh Sorceress. Oh Misery.

Oh Hatred. I left my treasures with you.

A Season In Hell. Right?

Wow.

Hyun Joo approved of this man.

You must read a lot of books.

I have a lot more free time.

I think there's more to being a doctor than treating patients and writing prescriptions.

Very impressive.

Horn-rimmed glasses!

But love is a game whose ending no one can forsee. The future is still a mystery.

I wanted to see you up close.

I'm going to Singapore next month.

There's a lot of work to do because the Singapore branch will have its opening.

I just want to focus on work.

It's an open ticket. Just in case you change your mind.

- I... - Just...

You can stop by if you miss me.

You can think of me as a friend you used to work with.

Even if you don't miss me, I'd like it if you stopped by Singapore.

I'll do that.

If you don't move, I'll send another ticket when this one expires.

Until I die...

I hope you don't throw away the ring.

Put it on whenever you think of me.

Just for today, let's stay like this until they close.

There are many boxes in a woman's heart.

Of all the boxes in my heart,

The loveliest and most regrettable box...

I'll put these away in that box.

And whenever life becomes too chaotic,

I'll open that box.

It'll remind me of a time when a warm and caring man was there for me.

I'll happily recall that he's still waiting for me.

I don't know which box to put Kim Sung Soo in!

Kang Hee did really well in this.

I know. She did really well.

I said not to smile at women. They get the wrong idea!

She did well.

I'm saying she did well. It's good.

Cheating Sung Soo

Just a minute. This is very important.

It's me. What is it?

You told me to call you.

What happened? Did everything work out?

Did she take you back? Did she forgive you?

She said she won't forgive me.

She said she can never forgive cheating.

What kind of rule is that?

That's ridiculous!

She should be open-minded and be willing to forgive.

And she's eating ricecakes with someone else right now!

Apologize to her properly.

Did you try saying sorry?

She said it doesn't matter if I apologize!

Why are you crying?

Sung Soo! Don't cry okay? Don't cry!

I'm the one who wants to cry...

In Young!

Are you drunk? Why were you drinking?

In Young.

What's wrong with you?

This jerk doesn't belong in any box.

Come here.

Come to your senses!

It's honey tea. Drink up.

My stomach hurts.

So pathetic.

In Young.

Don't call my name.

In Young...

Don't smile. I'll get attached.

Why do you hate me so much?

Why are you so pretty these days?

Seriously, what's wrong with you?

Why are you so pretty? Is it because you're in love?

You're really pretty.

Don't do it.

So pretty...

Don't!

If I hug you, are you really going to report me?

Of course!

Should I just kiss you and go to jail tomorrow?

If I'm going to ruin my life...

Might as well do it with a kiss.

What's wrong?

Don't come near me.

I need to come close if I'm going to kiss you.

What's this feeling?

My heart's getting weaker.

Fine. Let's be honest.

My body's getting hotter.

Should I just kiss him?

He'll probably be too drunk to remember anyway.

Fine. If he remembers, I'll just deny it.

Are you sleepy? You're so tired right?

You don't even see me as a man anymore.

You're seriously breaking my heart.

Just lock your door!

He's a sore on my butt!

He's a sore that won't let me sit down or stand up.

I just have to cut him out of my life.

I hate him.

I hate him. I really do.

I really do hate him.

How long am I going to cling like this?

That's right! Let's cut off this sore!

Don't you have any soup?

Just eat what I give you. Who do you think you are?

What is this?

What do you think? It's my engagement ring.

If I tell you not to go to that guy, will you not go?

I really regret it.

Don't go to him.

Even if you punish me for the rest of my life, I'll smile through it.

I'll treat you well.

I'll never cheat again. I won't smile at other women.

I won't even make eye contact.

I'll stare at the ground for the rest of my life.

Okay? Please forgive me this once.

Are you crazy? Why would I take you back?

No, I'll never forgive you.

Yeah, have a nice life with him.

I said have a nice life. Be happy.

Seriously! He's not even trying to stop me.

We're going to leave for Hawaii!

When are you going to tell your parents?

Well, soon. In a bit.

Sooner the better.

Before you and Lightweight go meet them, I'll break the news to them first.

So that your mother and father won't be surprised to see him.
