Love Affairs in the Afternoon (평일 오후 세시의 연인)

(The characters, locations, and groups presented in this film are fictional.)

Ji-eun, answer your phone.

You too.

Jung-woo, what time are you leaving from there?

Will you be really late?

Yes?

Is the party going on late?

Yeah, I think I'm going to be home late.

Really?

Should I come pick you up?

No!

I'm not sure when the party is going to be over.

And you're tired too.

Okay...

Get home safe.

I'm tired so I'm going to bed.

Okay.

No...

It can't be...

Where were you?

I watched a show.

A ballet performance.

Oh...

You said you did ballet, right?

That's right.

You did.

You're home early.

I thought you were going to be late from the dinner.

I was going to be.

If it weren't for that psycho.

You know him too, right?

Ms. Kim's ex-husband, Do Ha-yoon.

My goodness...

He stood up in the middle of our meeting and left.

I was wondering if he needed to take a crap.

But he really didn't come back.

I was speechless.

What about dinner?

I lost my appetite.

You must be tired.

You should wash up and get some rest.

Why in the world do girls like guys like him?

Ms. Kim divorced him but drops off food for him all the time.

Anyway...

He's got a lot of girls for someone who doesn't have anything.

At this moment,

we may have been dreaming for total extinction.

For couples who aren't even allowed a day of a happy ending,

a day like this...

comes back as a even bigger punishment.

You're home.

What time is it?

Twelve...

Fifteen?

You're really late.

Sorry.

I haven't been able to hang out with my friends for a while so...

It's okay.

You need to have a day like this once in a while too.

I'll be careful from now on.

Hey, I'm sorry.

I've been cold lately, right?

No...

No I have been.

I'll treat you better from now on.

It's okay.

Let's live happily ever after.

Okay?

You must be tired.

Was it fun?

Are the fireflies doing well?

Yeah.

They were doing well.

My gift.

Your gift...

I was going to suspect you for going with a girl.

I heard only people who are sensible can cheat.

Someone like you would never.

I'll get you one next time.

No, let's go together next time.

Okay.

Go wash up. You must be tired.

Okay.

What?

Kang Chul quit?

Without saying a word to me?

Why...

What's going on?

What is that?

It looks like an affair.

How come all affairs in Korea have the same ending?

Do they teach the manual at schools or something?

Teach them to grab the hair first?

It's obvious it's about an affair.

She seduced someone else's husband.

She looks like she's normal.

How could she have an affair?

The audacity for her to face people!

I'm very fearful and scared of the choice I've made.

Ji-eun, are you okay?

Are you sick?

No.

I'm just a little shocked.

That's true.

I got a good field observation.

It's not just someone else's story.

I might go grab another girls' hair soon too.

I think my husband has another woman.

Do you know what kind of woman she is?

No, not yet.

But I'm scared I will find out.

Then it's not even for sure.

No, I'm sure.

A woman's instinct is like an animal's.

We can tell if a man doesn't love us any more just from the air he breathes.

If your husband is really having an affair, will you get a divorce?

What good would that do?

My co-workers from the market said that the husband always comes back to the wife.

It's nice to have my school friend.

I can tell you this even though it's embarrassing.

I haven't been able to tell anyone about this.

Of course not to my parents either.

Do you want to watch a movie with me tomorrow?

Is it that man?

No.

I tell you everything but you don't.

It's because he's just a friend.

Anyway, he's not a married man, right?

What?

Buddy,

you can date a single, divorced, or widowed man,

but you can never date a married man.

You can't have another woman cry tears of blood.

I told you it's not like that.

So naive...

I'm saying it because I'm worried about you.

This is to thank you for everything.

I used your name every time I went to go meet with Ha-yoon.

I also did too...

I always say I'm going to see you.

But I'm very confused.

And scared...

When you get one thing, you'll have to give up another.

That's what I've been thinking about lately.

That to gain a precious thing, I might have to give up something even more precious...

There you are!

Mother.

I'm sorry.

I forgot my phone.

You should've waited inside.

I couldn't remember the passcode.

Let's go inside.

I don't need to go in.

Did you put the talisman in the pillowcase like I told you to?

Of course.

Did you put it in your pillowcase or Chang-gook's?

Mine.

Oh my goodness!

The talisman became useless!

Oh my!

You have to put it in Chang-gook's pillowcase.

I told you to do the opposite.

You didn't respond, so I just got the tickets.

If in order to gain a precious thing,

I have to give up something even more precious,

what will I be able to give up?

- Where are the kids? - They went to school.

What are you doing today?

I'm going to Garam village in the afternoon with my neighbor.

They're having a flea market there.

You've been hanging out with the neighbor a lot lately.

She's the first friend I've made since moving here.

And she's nice.

This just came in.

Wow, the cover came out nice.

Send it to the author and Mr. Do.

We need a final review.

Yes, sir.

And send one to Ms. Kim.

She must be dying to see it.

Got it.

What is this?

What is this for?

I heard it helps at night.

The name is really something.

Did Soon-ae tell you about this too?

How did you know?

How would you have lived in this scary world if you didn't have Soon-ae?

Shut up.

Hello, mother.

I'm Mr. Jin's junior, Ko Yoon-ah.

Mother?

Why am I your mother?

She's just calling you that because she's my colleague.

So, why am I this woman's mother?

I'm sorry,

Mr. Jin is just someone I--

What about him?

You like him or something?

I mean--
