THE LAST PAINTING (TAEKOOK)
EPISODE -01
(Morning light filters through pale curtains, soft and warm. The house is peaceful for about three seconds before—)
KIM JE EUN
(shouting from downstairs):
TAAEHYUUNG! JIMIN! Get up right now or I’m bringing the cold-water bucket!
(A muffled groan comes from the bed on the left.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(half-asleep, pulling his blanket over his head):
I’m already awake… in my dreams
(From the other bed, Jimin’s sleepy voice joins in.)
KIM JIMIN
Tell her the sun can wait. We’re on vacation
KIM JE EUN
(louder):
You’re not on vacation! It’s your first day of college! Do you want to be late on your very first day?
(A beat of silence… then chaos.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(sitting up, hair messy, eyes wide):
WHAT? FIRST DAY?!
KIM JIMIN
(still wrapped like a burrito in his blanket):
Relax. Time isn’t real if you don’t check the clock
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(yanking the blanket off Jimin):
It’s eight-thirty!
(Jimin jumps up so fast he trips over his own pillow. Both brothers start scrambling—brushing teeth, fighting for the mirror, and stealing each other’s hairbrush.)
KIM JIMIN
(mouth full of toothpaste):
Stop copying my hairstyle, Taehyung!
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
Then stop stealing my hair volume!”
(Downstairs, Mr. Kim sits calmly at the dining table with his coffee, watching the morning news.)
TV Anchor:
—another suspected vampire attack in Gangnam last night. Authorities have yet to—
KIM JONG SUK
(sighing):
Every morning it’s vampires. Can’t they ever report about something cheerful, like weather?
(Mrs. Kim sets plates of toast and eggs on the table, rolling her eyes.)
KIM JE EUN
If they start reporting the weather, you’ll complain about the rain.
(The brothers finally run downstairs—Taehyung still fixing his shirt buttons, Jimin tripping over his shoelaces.)
My handsome boys! First day of Jeon College, hm?
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(grabbing toast):
Yes, and we’re totally on time.
(He glances at the wall clock. It’s 8:45. They need to leave in five minutes.)
KIM JIMIN
(to Taehyung, whispering):
If we run really fast, we can pretend we were early.
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(grinning):
And if we faint halfway, it’s cardio.
(Mr. Kim looks up from his coffee.)
KIM JONG SUK
So, Jeon College, huh? That’s the one with the mysterious principal, right? I heard there are three brothers.
(Taehyung and Jimin glance at each other curiously.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
Three brothers? Sounds like a K-drama already
KIM JE EUN
(smiling, fixing Taehyung’s collar):
Maybe one of them will finally teach you how to wake up on time.
KIM JIMIN
Yeah, or one of them will fall in love with Tae and steal him from us
(Taehyung rolls his eyes and smacks Jimin’s shoulder.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
Gross! We’re here for education, not romance!
(They all burst into laughter. Mrs. Kim hugs them tight before they leave.)
KIM JE EUN
Good luck, my boys. Be good, study well, and please don’t cause chaos on the first day
KIM JIMIN
(grinning):
We make no promises.
(They wave goodbye, heading out into the bright morning—completely unaware that the halls of Jeon College are already waiting for them… and something ancient is watching from the shadows.)

EPISODE _02
(Outside, the morning air is bright and cool. The Kim brothers jog toward the tall white gates of Jeon College, still laughing and catching their breath.)
KIM JIMIN
(panting):
We made it… barely! I told you cardio was a good idea
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(fixing his hair, teasing):
Your idea almost made me trip into that poor woman’s bicycle!
(They walk through the iron gates, the college buildings rising in front of them like an old castle remade into glass and stone. The air feels different here—quieter, older, as if the walls have been listening for a very long time.)
KIM JIMIN
Look at all these paintings! Who hangs artwork in a hallway this big?
(The corridors stretch long and bright. Every wall holds portraits—hundreds of them—of faces neither of them recognize. Some are old and cracked, others look freshly painted. Each pair of painted eyes seems to follow them as they walk.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(leaning closer to one painting):
They look so real… even the eyes have reflections.
KIM JIMIN
(joking, but a little uneasy):
Maybe the principal is obsessed with art. Or maybe—
KIM JIMIN
(He lowers his voice)
—they’re all ex-students who didn’t pay tuition.
(Taehyung laughs, smacking his brother’s arm.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
Stop it! You’ll give me nightmares before the first lecture.
(They reach a grand staircase. Sunlight pours through the stained-glass windows, making colors dance on the floor. Somewhere above them, the faint echo of footsteps sounds, but when they look up, the balcony is empty.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
Did you hear that?
KIM JIMIN
Probably another student. Come on, we’ll be late for orientation
(As they turn toward the main hall, Taehyung glances back once more. For a split second, he could swear one of the painted figures—the young man in royal clothes—has turned his head just slightly, as if following him with a small, secret smile.)

EPISODE _03
(Taehyung and Jimin finally find the principal’s office. The massive door looms in front of them. Both brothers stand there, shoulders brushing, eyes nervously darting at the polished wood.)
(Inside, one of the triplets—smirking, shadows clinging to him—leans slightly forward.)
someone
(dark, chilling):
Finally… you are here.
(The words drift through the closed door like smoke. Taehyung shivers slightly, glancing at Jimin.)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(whispering, nudging Jimin):
You… you go first.
KIM JIMIN
(pushing back, whispering):
No, you go first!
(They start lightly shoving each other back and forth, both too scared to actually knock.)
KIM JIMIN
(grinning, an idea forming):
Let’s settle this properly… rock, paper, scissors. If I lose, I knock. If you lose, you knock.
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(sighing, rolling his eyes, dramatic):
Fine… but I’m warning you, I am a master at this game.
*(They face each other. One… two… three!)
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(panicking):
Paper—wait! Ahhh!!
(Taehyung loses. His hand trembles for a moment, then he takes a deep breath, dramatically straightening his shoulders. He raises his fist and knocks loudly on the huge wooden door.)
The room inside falls silent for a heartbeat. The triplets’ dark smirks widen, their eyes glinting. The air seems heavier, colder, as Taehyung slowly pushes the door open and steps inside.)
KIM JIMIN
(whispering from behind, barely containing his laughter):
Smooth… real professional, bro. Very intimidating.
KIM TAEHYUNG (O)
(whispering back, glaring at him):
Shut up… I’m trying to survive here
(Inside, the three Jeon brothers remain perfectly still, watching Taehyung with an intensity that makes him swallow hard. Their presence is powerful, dark, and impossible to ignore.)
