Dear.M (Dear M / Dieoem / 디어엠)

Min Ho oppa!

Hey, Yang Hee.

Are you here to study?

I have some books to borrow.

I see.

Oh, did you hear?

Two of the sunbaes in our major got conned.

Con?

They said they got conned by a sunbae who graduated.

His name was something like Chi Woong or Chi Young.

Chi Young?

The number you dialed is not in service.

Please-

It was 5 million won for me.

And there's one more sunbae besides us.

He also gave him 5 million won.

My call went through to him until now,

but his number wasn't in service since yesterday.

We won't get the money back, will we?

We can find our money right away if we file a report, right?

If you file a criminal action against him and we catch the debtor,

they can be fined or face criminal punishment,

but you need to file a civil action against him if you want to get your money back.

And even that wouldn't guarantee getting your money back.

Do you have any recorded calls or text message history?

No.

Ten million won isn't a small amount of money.

You should've left careful records.

The debtor needs to appear first in order for us to do anything,

so let's just wait for now.

It has to be me. Who else is there?

What brings you here?

I...

came to apply for the MC position for the festival.

He said that quite a few people get their money back after filing a civil lawsuit.

If the two of us buy a lawyer-

Hey. I asked an acquaintance of mine. Civil lawsuit?

It's a huge hassle and exhausting.

And it's not like we signed a promissory note.

It'll just waste time and tons of money.

Unless it's a huge amount, they say the lawsuit process causes an even bigger loss.

But still...

I only gave him 5 million won.

I won't have high hopes and just think I stepped in dog shit.

Myung Hoon sunbae also said he doesn't want to get hung up on this and will let it go.

I borrowed this money from my mom.

I guess I should go home and beg her for mercy.

I applied for the festival MC position!

Joo Ah.

Sunbae!

Did you hear about Min Ho?

Min Ho?

Hear what?

He said he would pick up right away...

Why isn't he picking up?

Hey...

Are you okay?

Why aren't you picking up your phone?

What did they say...

at the police station?

Ma Joo Ah.

Huh?

What do I do?

There you go.

Just cry.

- It's 4,000 won. - Sure, here.

Do you need a bag?

No.

Which is the answer that doesn't belong here?

Solve for x and y.

Right now, Min Ho probably

doesn't feel he lost the money he saved for years.

Never going on vacations that everyone else goes on.

Never having the leisure to wander as everyone else does at least once.

He probably feels as if he lost his youth which he spent industriously and without rest.

Because I'm aware of the teenage years Min Ho couldn't enjoy.

Because I'm aware of the twenties that Min Ho lost.

That's why I also cried.

Aren't you hungry?

Want to go eat?

No.

I don't have an appetite.

I'm leaving first.

Who's this?

SeoRab was on fire with rumors about you two.

Was the photo to your liking?

It came out nice, if I may say so myself.

Why?

Did you not like the photo?

I waited one hour to take it. How upsetting-

Take down the photo.

All right?

Wow.

Wow, what a temper.

You must have a guilty conscious, seeing you're asking me to take it down.

- Do you know what happened because of tha- - Ha Neul, stop!

Take it down while I'm telling you nicely.

Got it?

Yes, Bo Bae? You called earlier?

Ji Min unni, where are you?

I think you should come here...

I said to take down the photo.

What are you going to do about it?

You going to hit me?

Are you crazy?

You think you can get away with that-

And you still insist nothing's going on between you two?

I said shut up.

So?

How far have you guys gone?

- You asshole! - Park Ha Neul!

Ji Min!

Ji Min.

Let's talk.

I have nothing more to say.

Just give me a few minutes.

Because it was the first time you asked to break up,

I was out of it and just sat there listening yesterday.

- But I can explain everything- - Just don't do something you need explaining!

We've already broken up

and I don't want to hear anything else from you.

I'll go ahead.

How could we be at the police station twice in one month?

This is how things turn out for me.

Hey.

Why are you blaming yourself when someone else is at fault?

Hey, drink slowly.

I'm going to take a leave of absence.

Now?

It's my noona's wedding,

so I'll work and save up for her wedding funds while on leave.

Wouldn't leave of absence be a waste?

We're already far into the semester.

Don't you think it'd be better news for your noona

for you to graduate as soon as possible and start working?

I just...

don't want Noona to feel small on her own wedding day.

I know...

I know, but...

When did we drink all three bottles?

Boss!

Another bottle of soju, please.

My crappy life...

If it were assigned a genre, wouldn't it be a disaster movie?

Hey.

Do you know what the most frequent cliche in a disaster movie is?

A happy ending.

All the adversities are forced upon the main character.

But even through all those adversities and a mental breakdown,

it's always a happy ending.

So...

your life is definitely going to be a happy ending, too.

I guarantee it.

So all these crappy things happening to you

is because you're main character material.

What happened today is the worst adversity of them all,

but still...

Cha Min Ho that I know

is not someone who will crumble because of something like this.

If you can't believe in yourself,

I'll believe in you.

- Ma Joo Ah. - Yeah?

You know that I really like you, right?

Of course. Of course, I do.

I'm serious.

I really like you.

I said I know!

Look at this. Look.

You act all close when you're drunk.

Hey, acting all sweet like this doesn't suit you.

Hey, you're drunk.

Let's go.

Whoa...

We drank five bottles tonight.

That's crazy. So crazy.

However, today's situation was a little special,

so it's an exception.

This can never happen again.

Huh? It's Joon oppa.

Don't pick up.

What's wrong with you?

Don't like Hyung anymore.

You liking someone

feels so unfamiliar to me.

What are you saying?

Joo Ah, are you busy?

You're not picking up.

What does that mean?

Joo Ah, you're up?

Oppa,

I couldn't call you back because it was too late last night.

It's fine.

I heard about Min Ho.

Is he okay?

I...

actually had a favor to ask of you because of that.
