Hey, Ga-yeong.
When did you leave? Couldn’t see you when I woke up.
You know I have a book signing today.
Oh, I see.
Then, you're gonna get back late tonight?
Well, I could be late.
You?
You said you have a meeting with a film production company?
Yes, and now that you mentioned it, may I borrow your dress?
Sure.
But make sure you keep it clean.
I appreciate it!
She only calls when she needs something.
Excuse me...
Yes?
I'm... LEE Su-yeon...
Umm... Okay...?
Umm... This one...
Oh! Ms. LEE Su-yeon!
Hey, she's real LEE Su-yeon.
Should we buy a book?
No way. She's already over the hill.
But It's pitiful to see her try hard.
Hey, are you seriously feeling bad for all of what she did?
Let's go.
Could I have your autograph?
Sure. What is your name?
Ji-min,
PARK Ji-min.
I'm a big fan of you...
It is a great honor.
Really? I appreciate...
I was afraid that if this event might be done.
Lucky you! I was about to leave...
Here you go.
Your leg...
Something happened?
Yes, I had an accident when I was young.
It's getting worse these days.
Must be a long way to get here...
I'm good.
Now I have your autograph,
and greet you.
So, it means a lot to me.
Ji-min!
Wow... What an expensive restaurant!
I don't think we have enough operating money.
No pressure. It's on me.
Wow! Really?
Then what should I eat...?
I still cannot believe I could dine with you...
Not a big deal...
Anyway, how old are you, Ji-min?
I'm... older than I look.
People might consider me immature,
but for me,
you are more than an actress.
Am I?
Yes.
You gave me great strength when I had an accident.
I watched all the movies and TV shows that you acted in
since you were a child actress.
When you received the award, I was glad as if it was mine.
Unfortunately, I made a big mistake, though.
I really feel sorry.
Everyone makes a mistake.
Don't worry about what the nerds say.
Thank you for saying that.
Sad things?
Oh! Sorry...
You quit drinking... I forgot.
No... You're good...
Ah!
A wish bracelet?
A kid I knew when I was young also used to wear the same bracelet.
Yes.
I'm still waiting for the day when my wish comes true...
Not sure when the day is.
Hold on.
Hello?
One, two! "Have a surfing!"
Hello, we are 'Paran' that will make waves in the music industry!
Hi. Nice to meet you all.
That's enough. Go ahead.
Yes, ma'am!
How do they look?
Cute, all of them.
Is that all?
Cute and even young, which makes me annoyed.
Answered?
Never mind. You stone cold bitch.
Anyway, since when have you prepared an idol?
Is it okay to have a girl group for an actor agency?
It's hard to be an actor for kids from the top, isn't it?
To enter this industry, this is the quickest way
to break through.
And you know, it's hard to find kids who want to be an actor from young age.
You just sound like the same as the CEO 'Koo'.
Is he good to you?
You know him.
He is not a bad guy even though he is a bluffer...
I can't help but have to believe in him.
I understand.
By the way, you quit drinking, didn't you?
I'm trying.
You have to stay low.
Make sure you don't rely on alcohol.
People have a prejudice against you because of that accident you had.
You won't have any chance if you make a second mistake.
Ah,
the girl you live with.
- Ga-yeong? - Yes.
How is she? Are you two good?
Well, nothing special. Why?
Actually I've heard some rumors...
I recently met a CEO of a movie company by chance...
It looks like she's talking behind your back...
Because of that,
you are removed from the cast list.
Ma'am, may I get you another drink?
KOO Chang-seo, CEO.
Our hope! How was the book signing today?
Don't you think it's not right?
You don't pay too much time to me these days, Mr. Koo.
You are so preoccupied with making an idol debut
that I'm just behind the scenes.
Please understand.
I must take a chance.
I'm gonna catch a big TV show for you, so stay tuned.
It's time to be in your prime again!
Way ahead of your word again...
Hey...
Can't you give me my own accommodation?
Sorry to bother you with the lawsuit...
But,
it's a little uncomfortable living with Ga-yeong.
Hmm...
We will talk about it later.
I will have the chance and give you a new house.
Be patient, alright?
Whatever...
By the way, are you taking your depression pills well?
Never drink because you're depressed.
Take pills.
Is that clear?
Stop nagging.
Bye.
Is... it you, LEE Su-yeon? Right?
I wasn't sure before...
Since noon you drink alone...
What bothers you so much?
Nothing bad but you.
Don't get in my way. Just go.
Oops. As I heard, you have a pretty bad temper.
After all, beauties aren't cheap.
But you are already out of date.
13 years ago.
Seriously?
You want to be an actress?
Why? Is there any problem with you?
No... that's not...
But to be an actress you should be pretty.
Of course, acting skills are important, but...
Hey!
Isn't it supposed to be this pretty?
What if I just tweak my eyes a bit with surgery?
Tweaking your eyes? Is your face some kind of balcony?
Why don't you put some tiles on your faces, too?
Do you really think I'm wrong?
No, not like that.
You're definitely something here,
but in Seoul, there are so many pretty girls...
Girls, there...
You can tell just by looking at that girl.
She transferred from Seoul last week...
She lives well and has good grades.
Rumor has it that some idol agencies offered her deals,
but she wanted to be an actress and rejected them all.
After all, pretty girls count on themselves.
That's why they're so bold.
Hey, why are you so zoning out?
Are you shocked?
By the way, why is the weather so gloomy?
It's going to rain again...
Hey, what are you doing? Let's go!
You're not going?
Hey!
Excuse me, but are you in trouble?
No, I was just a bit tired.
Are you drunk?
No...
Have you ever seen this person?
I don't know...
He ran away from a nearby nursing home. A report is coming in.
He has aggressive tendencies.
If you see him, don't pretend to know him.
Please contact us right away.
Drive safe.
Hello? Lawyer.
It's not something else,
but the CF damage that we talked about last time...
I kept receiving a complaint letter and a reminder letter.
What are you going to do?
Who doesn't know that now?
It's because I don't have money.
Anyway.
I'd like to get this sorted out as soon as possible.
She's making such a fuss.
I'm home.
Oh, were you sleeping?
No...
Did the meeting go well?
Yeah!
I met the production company CEO and the director.
I guess they liked me more than I thought.
We had a drink while chatting because the atmosphere was good.
Sure.
How can you not be loved at a young age?
I heard rumors,
that you were also considered for the role.
It looks like she's talking behind your back...
Yes, I know.
The role wasn't great, so I refused it.
But anyway,
you're going to do it?
Almost 99% sure?
I'm less skilled than you,
so I have to do everything I can.
There's no choice for me. I have to do everything to avoid criticism.
That.
Isn't it what I drink?
Did you drink it?
Yes, I was thirsty...
My mom sent me to drink...
Since I borrowed your clothes today, I will let you drink it.
What?
Su-yeon.
I will take a shower first.
Damn it.
This is obvious that she's getting old now.
I can't cut off that noise.
It's so noisy.
I'm dying of annoyance, CEO.
When I got home, she was drunk.
She took my drinks and drunk it as hers.
How long should I have to be with her?
She has been completely ripped off by a lawsuit.
She would have nowhere to stay if it weren’t for that place.
If this movie goes well,
I'll give you studio apartment in Gangnam.
Hold on until then.
She said she refused the role. Is it true?
She's delusional.
She is too sensitive to lose anything.
Even if it's tough, hang in there.
Treat your senior well too.
As people age, they’re more moved by small acts of kindness.
Don't show too much that you're doing well.
In our company, you are the best.
You know what I mean, right?
Su-yeon.
Hey! Didn't I tell you to make sure this dress stay clean?
But what is this?
Throw it everywhere like a mop!
I was about to laundry it and give it to you.
Did you enter my room?
Does it matter now? We are talking about this dress?
How dare you enter my room without permission!
Is it so wrong for a senior to enter a junior's room?
Still, you have to keep it.
Wash this clean and bring it to me.
Okay?
Damn it. Why's everyone trying to fuck with me.
Die!
Hey...
Sorry.
Something bad happened today...
It's okay.
I'm sorry for my behavior.
But I'm the senior.
I behaved so childish.
You've had hard time these days.
I should have been a little more careful.
I'm proud of you.
Hey, embarrassing.
Who is it at this late hour?
Ah... just a friend.
A friend?
Seriously, this girl must be crazy.
She was screaming all along and even cut herself.
Really?
That's the problem.
I guess I got it wrong.
I should cancel the contract with her.
Otherwise, it is bad for the company image.
Isn't she going to cause another accident?
Fire her.
Sure. We only need you.
What is it?
Ga-yeong, shall I give you a massage?
You're so good at it.
It feels like all the fatigue is melting away.
Like it?
I love it.
How good?
Better than being touched
by a production company CEO and a director?
What are you talking about?
Did you go around talking behind my back like that?
Who says such things?
How many years have you been living in this industry?
You can't wear your mask like an amateur.
You really think you are going to do the acting properly?
Please stop there. It's enough.
- Who decided? - Why are you doing this to me?
Do you think your youth is going to last?
How much do you think expiration date of your beauty lasts?
You're like an under-ripe persimmon that is sweet and solid.
But in a little while, you will become soft.
Your limp skin will be peeled off and ditched
after they taste the sweetness inside.
The moment you realize that.
You too will know what despair is.
You crazy bitch!!!
You're a lunatic that's just old and ugly.
I will never be a loser like you.
Die you bitch!
Die?
Why am I the one dying? That should be you.
SONG Ga-yeong!
I will tear you up! You know?
Why is everyone doing this to me...
What did I do so wrong?!
Every time I see her,
I think she's a typical actress material.
I have to say the genetic from Seoul is different.
Is not it?
What are you saying?
We're all the same human.
Ah... my head...
Ga-yeong.
Ga-yeong!
I'm gonna rip you off!
I didn't do this, did I?
Oh Su-yeon.
I have a very important meeting right now.
I'm busy with it.
Ga-yeong...
She's dead...
Yes?
I know Ga-yeong's body always makes us dead.
Idiot! She's dead!
What.. What?
I do not know.
After I snoozed for a while, I woke up to find her dead.
Fuck! What the fuck are you talking about!
Please come over here... I'm scared...
Okay. Let's calm down...
The police?
That's
that's a bit tricky.
You didn't drink, did you?
I mean, I found it all too hard...
Fuck!! Why are you getting drunk again?
You know you are gonna lose yourself again!!!
Please come over here... I'm scared...
Is she really dead?
You saw her wrong because you’re drunk, right?
Do you really think I can't even distinguish being dead and being asleep?
Okay. Hang in there.
Don't tell anyone else and stay there.
I'll be there soon. Understand?
A few minutes earlier.
Bitch.
Yeah... This isn’t me.
I didn't kill anyone.
I know you're here.
I don't care who you are.
Everything you just saw is a misunderstanding.
I didn't hurt anyone.
Well, it was just an accident.
So please keep it quiet like now.
Have you seen this person?
Do you still feel sorry for that woman after all that has happened?
Did I kill someone due to drunk driving?
Why are you not answering the phone?
I just wish you had gone quietly.
Are you the new kid in the school?
I said are you the new student from Seoul.
Yes, I am.
What grade are you in?
Second grade.
I'm in third. You know it, right?
Yes...
Don't they say you're the prettiest among second grades?
I'm not sure.
Are you pretending to be nice?
No, it's not...
I have something I want to show you.
My mom told me to come quickly.
It won't be long.
Go!
Who are you?
Delivery.
At this late night?
Yes. Are you LEE Su-yeon?
Someone requested urgent delivery.
Hold on.
Are you LEE Su-yeon?
Yes.
Looks like someone I've seen a lot of...
You are an actress, LEE Su-yeon.
Right?
- Yes... - Wow! This is an honor.
You look even prettier than on screen.
Do you hear that a lot?
Thanks... But which one I have to get?
Ah! This one.
Thank you.
You're welcome. I'm rather glad to see you.
You live in a very nice house.
Yes, bye.
Ah! Who sent this?
I have no idea. I didn't see the sender either.
What?
Just over there. I got it from a designated place.
Alright.
Yes. By the way...
Aren't you filming these days?
Now I have to.
Looking forward to it.
Go for it!
What is this?
How far should I go?
Are we still far away?
No. Almost there.
My feet hurt so much.
You're such a kid.
Pardon?
Living is a series of pain.
There is nothing in the world that you can do as you please.
But you're born to be pretty.
You can live less painfully with only that reason.
So even now. Don't say it's hard.
Got it?
You said you wanted to be an actress?
But why do you want to be an actress only?
There are lots of other things to do.
I have a role model.
Is this your wannabe?
Do you know what it takes
to become an actress at this level?
No...
You need to be smart, kind, and physically strong.
If you want to hear people say you are ‘superior’ to others.
Wouldn't that be the case?
Let's go.
I'll be happy to help.
What?
Where is she?
Hello?
What is it? What's going on?
The body...
Her dead body is gone.
What are you talking about!
There's somebody here.
Are you still drunk? Calm down!
I'm so confused right now.
I'm afraid I'll just report it to the police.
No!
If you mess up right now, it'll be hard for me to handle it.
If you get into a trouble one more time, you're over!
Anyway,
my life is on a downhill slope right now.
Aren't I?
There's no need to be so disrespectful.
You're the best actress I know.
To others, you're a wannabe.
It's all over.
Now.
It's really over.
Yes, I know how hard you are right now.
No, you don't.
How can you know!!
Hello?
Fuck!!!
Do you know what it takes to become an actress?
You wanna play with me now?
Great. Whoever you are...
I'm willing to be your match.
Ah! Hi again!
Sorry for the late night.
What are you doing here at this hour?
There's a report coming in.
Yes?
The man we were looking for earlier.
Someone saw him run away this way.
A report has been received from the district.
Excuse me. Hello. Sorry for the late night.
As you can see from the photo.
This friend is not normal.
I'm worried that he might harm you.
Would you mind taking a look around the house?
I was just about to go to bed...
Could you come back in the morning?
I'm sorry but we have other work after this patrol.
I'm begging you.
Okay.
Are you alright?
Yes, I'm good.
We'll quickly take a look around.
Would it be okay?
Yes.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Thank you!
Officer, that girl.
Doesn't she look familiar?
It's kind of familiar but not really.
Where did I see her? I'm pretty sure I saw her somewhere.
But that girl.
Doesn't she look a bit odd?
I think she's hiding something.
Do you feel that way?
Obviously, with my experience!
She's completely hiding something. It's so suspicious.
Ah! Got it!
What?
Hey.
She's LEE Su-yeon. The actress!
Oh, she's an actress?
I don't know her, though.
She's a very famous actress.
- Which show was she on? - I was a big fan of her!
No way.
Kim.
Didn't you just hear a strange sound?
Looks like someone is there...
What do you mean by someone is there?
Have you looked around the garage today?
The garage?
I'm sorry.
May I have a look in the garage?
If you don't like it...
We might get a warrant.
What are these?
These are potatoes! Are they Gangwon-do potatoes?
Do you like potatoes?
I heard potatoes are good for a diet.
Is that right?
Isn't it sweet potato good for a diet?
I don't think there's anything weird.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Let's go.
I'm really sorry, but...
It's because I’m in a hurry.
I need to go to the bathroom.
If you don't mind...
Is it okay?
Yes.
Go ahead. Hurry up.
You are an actress, LEE Su-yeon. Right?
I was right! You looked so familiar.
I was a huge fan of you.
No... still a fan.
Thanks.
Could you wait here for a moment?
The bathroom is a bit messy.
It's okay.
As long as there's no dead man in the bathroom.
Oh, my stomach hurts.
Come on in.
Thank you.
Excuse me, then.
Hey, please check what I requested,
and let me know once you've looked into it.
Did you do some research?
Yes, I looked into it.
There is nothing special.
She has a clear identity.
Really?
All right. Good job.
Have some of this.
Oh, thank you.
Is Kim still in the bathroom?
I don't know. I guess she's feeling a little sick.
I see.
She ate a lot for dinner.
I have a question.
What's it?
You said someone reported it.
Right.
The person who reported it.
May I know who did it?
What is that for?
It's nothing else.
There's someone who stalks me these days.
I was wondering if it was him.
I don't know. We don't know who reported it.
Then...
Do other people know that you are here?
What are you talking about?
Ah!
I was wondering.
If there were any other people at the police office.
I was thinking I would pack some snacks for you guys.
Oh! It's fine.
Our office is too small,
so there're only two of us on duty.
It's okay.
Thank you for this.
Kim!
What's wrong?
Kim! What's wrong?!
Hey!
Who did this?
Kim, get up! Kim!
Is there still a long way to go?
I heard it's dangerous
because there are a lot of traps around here.
We already passed the place with traps.
We're close now.
It's right there.
What's that?
You'll know when you see it.
There are so many pretty things these days.
The compulsion to maintain beauty...
That's a trap.
It's like a punishment.
It gets strangling as you get older.
Who's there?
I don't know who you are, but no matter what you do,
I won't collapse!
It was you who sent the police, right?
Did you see the cops?
I'm not a person who's going to give up easily!
Do you know that?
No!
No!!
Oppa!
Don't!
No!! Oppa!
Don't die.
Sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, oppa.
Don't die.
Oppa!!
Please help me.
Wondering what this is?
If you dare, take the stones away.
It's okay. Don't be afraid.
Open it.
What is this?
This is the cat that my mom used to love.
What was his name?
Was it Simba?
My mom was very fond of him.
As she loved the cat so much,
she couldn't pay much attention to us.
So, I decided to bury her here.
It's been about two weeks or so?
Look at this. A lot of maggots are twisted!
Don't do this!
Why the hell are you doing this?
She said the cat is prettier than me.
Isn't it normal to feel bad?
But not this cat...
I was curious about something else.
What else do you want to know?
If it takes a fortnight for the cat to transform so gruesome,
how long will it take for a pretty girl like you?
What's wrong with you!
Scary. Don't do this.
Don't you wonder.
How long does the beauty last?
What are you so afraid of?
Please, let me go.
Who killed you?
I just want you to stay here for a few days.
What's this?
A wish bracelet?
A girl who has everything is carrying a thing like this.
Why are you doing this to me?
Hold on!
I do not like it! Let this go!
Ji-min!
How did this happen?
Oh my gosh.
Was it you?
Why me, why?
Isn't that funny?
The once glamorous radiance
can be buried beneath such harsh skin.
Withered flowers are always sad...
Who are you?
Please leave me alone.
I've come too far for that.
I got blood on my hands,
so something needs to be sacrificed to wash my hands off.
Sacrifice?
That's something only valuable people can achieve.
You got the wrong person.
I have nothing.
That's the problem.
You don't respect yourself too much.
Such a weak.
Where did that confidence from the past go?
Shut up! What's the use of that?
The pride you enjoyed.
The honor of standing on top of popularity.
All of them.
Sometimes they are the final goals that someone struggles to win.
There was a girl who admired you as an actress.
She might have wished you to guide her life.
So, I wondered how great of an actress you are.
But after watching you for a while,
I realized that you're a map that make her get lost.
It's the wrong map.
How sad would she feel if she finds out the truth?
To choose the wrong map
is not my fault.
You are so cruel.
The blade lasts longer than a sheath,
and a heart remains longer than heartbeats.
You'll never know what this means.
Don't talk like that.
What do you know about me?
At least you can tell that you haven't matured.
And that's a sin.
You don't deserve to be an actress.
What are you doing now?
Sort of a ritual of disqualification, you know?
Life is a strange thing.
Life is as miserable as the size of one's ambitions.
Su-yeon!
LEE Su-yeon!
Come out!
If you do something wrong, you should be punished!
I mean...
I've been punished enough.
So you should be punished too.
Don't be cowardly and come out!
I didn't mean to kill her.
I just wanted to frighten her.
I just wished I was the prettiest.
That's what I wanted.
PARK Ji-min.
You won't know.
If you don’t resist,
you'll get used to being unfortunate.
