My 20th Twenty (My X Twenty / My X-Like 20 / Seunaui Xgateunmusal / 스나의 X같은무살)

I'm a cursed creature.

It was around the time I turned seven.

My stepmom often locked me in the shabby cellar...

and never treated me as a human.

And it was after she gave birth to a baby.

Stepmom?

It could be just me.

You didn't have to make my son live a cursed life too!

I didn't want to be the only one living a miserable life.

That was the best I could do!

You killed my family.

That wench put a curse on me!

Get out of my head, please!

I don't want to be miserable anymore!

I don't want this unfortunate life to continue anymore!

I'm going to crash everyone's life!

I grew up little by little while eating up others' misfortunes...

without knowing about the curse that would come back to me at all.

The curse came back to me and slowly ate me away.

Now I'm losing my memory.

You almost got hit.

I'm totally wrecked.

So how does it feel?

This is how it feels like...

to be under a curse.

I've lived for 20 years like that.

No, it was much more tormenting.

You'll have less and less time when you come to your senses, like now.

And in the end, you'll be locked up in your childhood memory.

If my memory vanishes,

you'll have to stay under the curse forever.

Isn't that what you wanted?

Living as a 20-year-old for good.

I really want to end it. Please.

It's because of that guy, isn't it?

I thought you were 20 only on the outside,

but you were still young at heart.

Will he still love you if you're no longer 20 but 40?

What?

I'm not sure...

if you'll still be 20 or become 40 once the curse is lifted.

I've only put a curse on others...

but have never lifted it.

Tell me you're lying.

If you don't want that,

you have no choice but to live like now.

What do you say?

It's now or never.

You're late.

What brings you here without any notice?

You're making me sad again.

The event is over. So I came to say bye before I left.

Okay. Take care.

Can you please come with me?

I really need you.

Even now, what you need is not me.

You just need me to write your stories.

I think it's also better for you to write new stories.

Is it because of her?

So Won?

No.

- Then, why? - Nu Ri.

You're like a curse to me.

The curse I wanted to be free from, but I couldn't.

Yet, I should break away from it someday.

But I haven't been able to do that until now.

Because I didn't have assurance about my life.

But when I saw So Won,

I thought of this.

She was striving hard...

to find hope despite the tedious repeating hardships.

And I found her very different from me.

I thought you'd be my persona for life.

The only one who can complete my work.

It's time to let me go.

I'll make sure to read it when you release a new book.

I hope...

you can also break away from the curse, which is me.

So Won, what's this?

What do you mean?

It's what you're keeping in the drawer all the time.

Gosh. Are you leaving so quickly because you found the witch?

There's no point in staying here.

It's not like you're going to feed me.

I'm not the one giving you a paycheck, but the company.

Then, is the curse beaten now?

- She says I can be 41 years old. - What?

Does that mean you'll lose the 20 years you've lost?

It's too unfair that you have to lose your youthful days.

Still, there's nothing I can do.

If I have to live as a 20-year-old...

and get forgotten by others every year,

I'd rather be a cool 41-year-old woman like you.

But I'm not cool at all.

Min Ji.

You're very cool and beautiful.

So don't be discouraged. Keep going like now.

What's that? You sound like you're leaving for good.

I don't care if you're 21 or 41.
