Dear.M (디어엠)

Park Ha Neul.

Hey, Ji Min.

You two already met?

Huh?

Ro Sa, this is my boyfriend, Park Ha Neul.

We introduced ourselves earlier since we were at the same table.

He was your boyfriend?

Nice to meet you. I'm high school friends with Ji Min.

Yeah, it's nice to meet you.

You two should get along since you're in the same major.

Sure, all right.

Oh, right. Ro Sa, you said you live around here, right?

Yeah, that way. It's a short walk.

I'm going to leave now.

Okay, get home safely. I'll see you in the lecture hall tomorrow.

Okay.

Let's go.

Okay.

Min Ho, I guess you don't really need to prepare for employment.

Can't you just create a startup company with your skills?

Hyung, startups aren't just for anyone.

I just want to join Levan.

It's always been Min Ho's dream to join Levan Software.

One of their games was Min Ho's first game ever.

Really?

I know someone from Levan.

I can ask him to arrange an excursion if you'd like.

I'd love that!

I really wanted to visit there.

Hyung, the person you know is your father.

You didn't know?

He's the son of Levan Software's CEO, Moon Taek Geun.

Really?

Hyung, can I visit your dorm next time?

I'm really curious about what the single room looks like.

Yeah, come over. But it's quite ordinary.

I heard that it's more expensive than a studio's one-month rent.

I'm so jealous.

It's not my money. It's my dad's.

Why? It's a good thing if your dad has a lot of money.

Is it?

It's been a while since we took a walk on Kiss Road.

Do you know about the Curse of Kiss Road?

Do you think it's true?

No way. It's all just a superstition.

But I know couples who have broken up after walking down Kiss Road.

I'm sure that wasn't the reason they broke up.

I guess...

But I still worry whenever I walk down Kiss Road with you.

Oh, yeah.

Did you read the Maple Latte confession?

Yeah. My roommate read it to me.

Isn't that just a joke?

No way. It was dripping with sincerity.

I would know since I had a crush on you.

You brag about having had a crush on me.

But keep in mind that I'm the one who confessed to you.

All right, all right.

But aren't you curious about who wrote that?

Not really. I have no interest in other people's affairs.

Why? It could be about us.

Doesn't everyone know that we're dating?

Someone who doesn't know could've written it

or they could've written it even knowing that we're dating.

Someone could be crushing on you.

Me?

If it's one of us, it would be you. Not me.

If it's one of us,

that's definitely because of the Curse of Kiss Road.

Ji Min, enough about superstition.

Stand here.

Why?

You're going to take another picture?

- You're constantly taking my pictures. - Who told you to be so pretty?

What the heck!

How could I deny you when you say something that sweet?

- Here? - Yeah.

I'll take it. One, two, three.

That's pretty.

Keep your eyes closed.

- Like this? - Yeah.

Hold on.

Are you done?

Close your eyes.

Give me your phone.

What are you doing?

I just want to hang on to his number.

As well as take a look at his profile picture.

He's not like crazy handsome or anything...

He's just...

a face that would make you look twice?

You know Min Yang Hee?

I get negative vibes from her.

Women say that about anyone pretty.

What do you know? Women like pretty women more!

Don't you think she's interested in me?

- She was asking me this and that. - Who knows?

Or she could just be flirting habitually.

Do you want to bet on which one of us starts dating first?

Why would you bet on something like that?

The loser has to post something humiliating on their Instagram. How about it?

Why post that?

Why not? If you don't want to, you just need to win.

Why? You're not confident?

Why wouldn't I be?

Make the bet! Start immediately.

Deal!

Hyung, do you have to fold it that meticulously?

During my military service, I was confident in looking spiffy.

No one was better than me when folding blankets and uniforms.

What do you think?

Perfect, right?

Look at this angle.

Take a good look. You'll learn this soon, too.

Did I tell you that I was a frontliner?

So I get that Min Ho is young,

but Ha Neul is in his third year. Aren't you going to the military?

I'm exempted.

I just have to serve in reserve later.

Oh, really?

You're such a son of God.* (Making a reference to a Korean movie, a slang for men who get exempted from military service)

Why are you exempted?

Because my dad was suddenly awarded National Merit.*

Hello?

Ma'am, this is Sergeant Choi Jin Ki.

Hello, Sergeant. How can I help you?

Well... Lieutenant Colonel Park has...

What about my husband?

What's going on?

Today, on the way to the training grounds via helicopter...

After my father passed away,

I developed a sense of responsibility.

I chose my career path as a game developer

and since I have more time than others who served military duty,

I figured I could afford to attend college for five years.

That's why I also switched majors.

It must've been very difficult for you

to have lost him so suddenly in an accident...

How tough it must've been...

It wasn't like that, Hyung. I'm fine.

Joo Ah, you have a crush?

Unni, how did you know?

You wake up at dawn to do your makeup,

and only listen to songs like "Maple Latte," "Flirting," and "Spring Is Gone By Chance."

Wouldn't it be weirder if I didn't know?

Was I too obvious?

I know from experience, too.

It's this guy? Your crush?

Yeah.

He's handsome!

- Right? - Yeah.

I want to see it, too.

Good looking.

Joo Ah, good luck. You'd look good together.

- Really? - Yeah.

I have to run, so I'll get going. Bye.

- Bye, Unni. - Bye!

- See you later. - Okay.

Oh, yeah, Unni. You should try this, too.

This is an app my friend created.

It matches lone eaters with each other.

It's kind of a dating app.

Oh, looks pretty good.

It's 20°C today.

Dress lightly.

I'm already outside running.

Your boyfriend?

You like him that much?

Yeah.

What do you like so much about him?

I just felt it as soon as I saw him.

He seems very reserved at first, but he says what has to be said

and he always texts me the weather in the morning,

and always lets me know when he's going somewhere.

The reasons are endless.

I guess, huh?

Then what does your boyfriend like about you?

I know, huh?

He has never said.

I'll have to ask him.

To be honest, I had the longest crush on him.

Oh, how unexpected.

You look like you've never had a crush on anyone.

No way.

I'll tell you the full story later.

Sounds good.

What classes does your boyfriend take?

I can help him out with cheat sheets and stuff since we're in the same major.

That's right!

Hold on.

Here.

We have most of the same classes!

- Really? - Yeah.

That's great!

Then take good care of my boyfriend.

Okay.
