The cherry goes flying but Seol-hee isn’t breathing. Seol-hee chokes on a cherry, and Joo-man runs over to give her the Heimlich (in slo-mo, with the theme song from “The Bodyguard” giving the scene a little extra hilarity). While filming, she notices her boyfriend Joo-man talking with Ye-jin, the pretty employee who’s interested in him. Dong-man takes the guy’s sprayer and accidentally-on-purpose sprays him with it, pretending not to know how it works, hee.Īt the home shopping network, Seol-hee is tapped to appear in a short video of people enjoying some cherries. She fakes as if she’s going to throw her drink in Hye-ran’s face, causing Hye-ran to betray a satisfying flinch, then tells her forcefully to leave Dong-man alone.Īt a job, Dong-man’s senior tells Dong-man to do all the work, saying that it’s the Korean way to follow proper hierarchy. She growls that it’s proper etiquette for a single woman not to call a married man. Ae-ra fibs that she doesn’t have Dong-man’s number anymore, because they’ve lost touch since he got married and moved away. Hye-ran just asks for Dong-man’s phone number-or even better, his address. She joins Ae-ra and ignores her own food, saying that she’s dieting and that the food is for someone else.Īe-ra doesn’t believe Hye-ran’s claim that their meeting is a coincidence. He just sighs when the caller texts him, threatening to show up on his doorstep if he doesn’t answer.Īt lunchtime, Hye-ran enters the restaurant where Ae-ra is eating and makes a beeline for her. She’s worried that it’s not really for her, and that the true owner will show up and demand compensation if the expensive packaging is ruined.ĭong-man continues to dodge the mysterious phone calls throughout the day. They must be talking about Hye-ran, the announcer whose divorce is making the news.Īe-ra finds that a mysterious package has been left for her when she gets to work, but she hesitates to open it. Ae-ra launches into a tirade, saying that it had better not be “her,” because she threatened to kill “her” if she ever bothers Dong-man again. He declines a call, obviously lying that it’s just spam when Ae-ra asks about it. Dong-man deadpans, “Let’s try not to see each other in the mornings.” PFFT. When they sit to eat, Ae-ra scratches her head, wondering if she’s so itchy because she hasn’t showered. Dong-man just blinks at her weird eyebrow treatment, and suddenly he can’t even look at her. They both freeze, the proximity affecting them both.Īe-ra goes a little starry-eyed and even puckers up a bit. All of those lovely muscles end up pressed against Ae-ra’s back and she turns around, wide-eyed. She nearly drops the bowls straight on her head, causing Dong-man to run across the room to grab them. Ae-ra is a bit flustered by the sight of so much bare skin, so she turns around to reach for some bowls. He sees Ae-ra and squeals that he told her not to just come in like this. She can hear him singing (badly) in the shower and chuckles that he’s going to be so embarrassed when he comes out.ĭong-man finally exits the bathroom with just a towel slung around his hips (hooray!), singing his little heart out. Her roommate Seol-hee knows that Ae-ra is cranky because it’s nearing open recruitment time for announcers, and she urges Ae-ra to apply.Īe-ra takes breakfast across to Dong-man’s apartment, letting herself in when he doesn’t answer the door. Ae-ra watches the news, snarling jealously at the scantily-clad weathercaster. We watch as all four of our misfits wake in the morning, some more easily than others. But even though it seems as though realizing your dreams would solve everything, sometimes those wants and desires bring with them a whole host of new problems to face. There’s nothing wrong with living an ordinary life-unless you can’t forget the dreams of your youth, then that ordinary life can begin to feel like a prison. 189 OctoFight My Way: Episode 3 by LollyPip
