Ep. 3

...#MAMAS BEAUTY SALON...

Ju-kyung’s mom, Hyun-sook has her own hair salon, or perhaps works at this beauty salon. She tells one of her clients that her eyebrows are perfect! Then she starts to do her face. But some gangsters come in and ask where her husband in.

Back at the school, Ju-kyung gives cafeteria oppa her gift. He is completely different. He’s mean and asks what this is. She tells him it is a concert ticket and cookies and….my heart. I like you oppa!

Oppa – You are confessing to me? I am Wang Hyun Bin. Hyun Bin.

JK – Huh?

Oppa – Did you think I would date you if he confessed.

JK – You said I was a nice girl and we have similar taste in music….

Oppa – hey, I was nice to you because you were ostracized. How dare you, you should at least know what is going on if you aren’t pretty. Don’t you see who you are?

He hits her box to the ground.

Oppa – next time you want to do this, look in the mirror, okay?

He bumps into her when he walks away. She starts to pick up her stuff. Then the bullies come run over, they recorded the entire thing and are still recording it. They run up to get an interview with JK to see how she feels after getting dumped.

The bully tells her that this is daebak, you are really ugly like this. JK pushes her away a tiny bit. The other guy bully pushes her and dumps her cookies on her.

The ugly duckling kid is the one that is reluctantly filming it.

JK – Why do you hate me so much? *teary* I did nothing wrong to you, so why do you hate me so much? *sniffles*

Bully – Do you want me to tell you? It is because you are ugly.

She hits her finger to her forehead. The other bullies tell her that ugliness will transfer to her, don’t touch me! The other ugly duckling looks sadly at her.

...#AFTER SCHOOL...

Ju-kyung walks home and looks at all the comments from the video. She cries and cries and runs off to a department store bathroom.

She washes her face in the bathroom and looks at herself.

Inner Jukyung :- Hey look at yourself. In the time you waste doing this, you should know yourself….Because you are ugly.

Ju-kyung throws her glasses on the floor and sits sadly in the bathroom.

The next day, she goes to school and the bullies get the entire class to cheer Bomb Bomb Bomb. She kind of wonders what is going on then sees that they are watching her video in the room. But it looks like this is just a dream. She is still in the bathroom.

She wonders how she can go to school tomorrow and starts to cry.

She rides her fancy elevator up to her house. Her glasses are broken. She goes to the top floor and to the roof. She is about to jump off the side. She takes another step closer to falling, then another small step and looks over to the ground. She takes a deep breath….

Then she looks at the skyline and sees a huge image of an Idol that died. He died at 18 years old so his fans are giving him a tribute. It appears that he also killed himself. She thinks he is a poor guy and thinks, I wont die.

She starts to shiver and says it’s cold.

But then another kid sees her.

He runs over and pulls her off the rooftop. Her glasses fall off, his headphones fall off. He crashes to the ground, she falls on top of him.

SUHO:- SH

SH – Ah, that is good.

There is a makeup ad playing on the sign now.

Ju-kyung tries to see his face, but she can’t without her glasses. She hops up and asks what he is doing. Then she starts to look for her glasses.

He stands up and asks what she is doing? Were you about to jump out? Are you crazy? Insane? Why did you want to commit suicide? Why would you make this kind of choice!

JK – I wasn’t about to

SH – You should fight with the courage of you trying to kill yourself. Don’t you think your family will be sad?

JK – I….

SH – Someone will be in pain forever because they couldn’t rescue you. You understand? You can’t do anything for the dead, so don’t die.

He grabs his head phones and walks off. But he stops and looks at her again.

SH – What? If I leave, are you going to jump?

JK – No, no, well, my glasses, um….

She starts to follow him back down the steps. But she is slow going because she can’t see anything.

It appears that the elevator isn’t working perhaps so hey have to take the steps. She calls for him to wait, ajusshi! I can’t see anything! I lost my glasses because of you! Without my glasses I don’t even know if thats poop or dwenjang ARGH!

She trips over the last few steps and splays on the floor.

JK – Are you still there? Ahhhh, my life….*wine*

But he is still there. He puts his arm out to help her stand. She grabs his booty accidentally so he pushes her away.

She apologizes and says she didn’t mean to! So he gives her a piggy back ride instead. She tells him that she is heavier than she looks. He says she looks heavy also. And why are you calling e ajusshi?

They start the long trek down the steps.

JK – I have a question, why did you come to the rooftop?

SH – Ajumma! Just say it loudly.

JK – It is scary if I say it loudly here. And I am not an ajumma, I am a student in a school uniform.

SH – *ignores her*

JK – Someone from the rooftop like me….you know, you rescued me even though you don’t know me and got angry so I just wondered if someone you know died.

SH – If you say one more thing then I will abandon you here.

He keeps walking down belaboredly.

SH – Ah, this is so heavy.

JK – Cheer Up, Cheer Up.

SH – Ajumma!

JK – *quiet*

He finally gets to the bottom. A man gets off the elevator.

SH – Ajusshi, I thought the elevator was broken?

Man – I just checked it, didn’t you hear the announcement

SH drops JK.

JK – So maybe we should have waited a little bit?

SH sighs.
