I'Ll Catch You (HYUNLIX)
01
Lee Felix
Why... does my body feel different?
He takes a deep breath, gets off the bed, and walks toward the mirror.
Lee Felix
It’s still my face, but...
Lee Felix
My hair? Blonde??
Lee Felix
Piercings? Rings? Bracelets?!
Lee Felix
What the hell... why do I look like some bad boy now?!
Suddenly, his head throbs painfully. Strange memories rush into him.
[Flashback – Some Time Ago]
Yongbok sits in a café, black hair neatly falling on his forehead, sweet expression on his face. A thick novel rests in his hands.
Lee Yongbok
Wow... this novel is amazing. It feels like I’m living with the characters.
Lee Yongbok
But... why didn’t the author put Felix and Hyunjin together?!
Lee Yongbok
They’d make the perfect couple. Enemy to Lover... it would’ve been perfect.
He closes the book in frustration, then steps out of the café.
Lee Yongbok
Ugh, I hate this ending. The main characters get their happy ending, but my favorite ship didn’t happen at all.
Suddenly, the ground shakes violently. People scream and run.
Yongbok freezes, still confused.
Lee Yongbok
Huh? An earthquake? Wait—
A roof tile crashes down, hitting him. Darkness. Silence.
[Back to Felix – In Front of the Mirror]
Lee Felix
*panting, staring at his reflection
Lee Felix
That... was me? Or... him?
Lee Felix
So now... I’m living in someone else’s body?
02
Lee Felix
(staring at the mirror)
Lee Felix
…this… this is the life I wanted?
Lee Felix
I want Felix’s character to end up with Hyunjin… his enemy.
Lee Felix
(pauses, then eyes widen)
Lee Felix
(jumping around excitedly)
Lee Felix
I can’t wait to see Hyunjin at school!!
Felix rushes to the bathroom, changes clothes, then speeds off on his motorcycle to school.
Lee Felix
(arriving at the school parking lot, looking around)
Lee Felix
Hyunjin…? Where is he?
Lee Felix
(grumbling under his breath)
Lee Felix
Ugh, can’t see him anywhere.
Lee Felix
If I keep wandering here, people will think I’m crazy… better just go to class.
Felix enters the classroom. The lesson has already started, so he doesn’t get to meet Hyunjin yet.
Lee Felix
(sitting, frustrated)
Lee Felix
Hhh… I’m so bored.
Lee Felix
Right… in this story, Felix’s character doesn’t have any friends.
Lee Felix
He’s the troublemaker, the one hated by the whole school.
Lee Felix
But… later, he’ll meet the protagonist.
Lee Felix
So if I still don’t have friends now… it means it’s not time yet.
Felix glances around. Not a single classmate talks to him. They don’t even glance at him.
Lee Felix
(sighing heavily)
Lee Felix
Hhh… yeah, right. Which means I haven’t met Hyunjin either.
Lee Felix
(suddenly remembers)
Lee Felix
OH SHOOT! My first meeting with Hyunjin is in the middle of the chapter!
03
[School Cafeteria – Noon]
Lee Felix
Ugh… once again, everyone’s avoiding me.
Why? It feels suffocating.
Lee Felix
Back when I was in Yongbok’s body, everyone wanted to be close to me.
Lee Felix
He was humble, such a sunshine person.
Lee Felix
But now… in Felix’s body, I feel like I’m unwanted.
Lee Felix
Are my friends from before missing me right now?
Lee Felix
Do they feel my absence?
Lee Felix
I can’t even imagine how broken my parents must be in my past life.
Felix lets out a long sigh, his mood sinking deeper.
People
Hey! Let go, don’t do that!
People
Hahaha, stupid new kid!
Lee Felix
What’s with the noise? I’m not in the mood.
He finally turns his head. His eyes widen in shock.
Lee Felix
That’s… Seungmin?!
The new kid is surrounded, clearly being bullied.
Lee Felix
I remember this scene.
Lee Felix
A week after Seungmin transferred, he got bullied.
Lee Felix
Just like me back then.
Lee Felix
The difference is… I fought back.
Lee Felix
But in the end… I was the one everyone avoided.
Lee Felix
Harsher, crueler, always punished. Even suspended.
Felix keeps watching Seungmin from afar, conflicted.
Lee Felix
If I step in now…
Lee Felix
Will the story change?
Lee Felix
Or will it end up the same?
