MY SISTER DAJEONG, WHO'S FIVE YEARS OLDER THAN ME, IS THE HEAD OF OUR HOUSEHOLD.
THE LITTLE GIANT WHO KEPT OUR FAMILY GOING AFTER WE LOST DAD IN AN ACCIDENT.
RIGHT AFTER GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL, SHE TOOK A PART-TIME JOB AT AN ART ACADEMY.
SHE STARTED AN ONLINE SHOPPING MALL WHILE ATTENDING SCHOOL AND BECAME THE CEO AFTER GRADUATION.
SMART, TOUGH, AND PRETTY TO BOOT... GUYS SWARMED AROUND HER.
I'VE LOST COUNT OF THE TIMES A GUY CHASED HER ALL THE WAY HOME TO WIN HER OVER.
AND EVERY TIME, I ASKED HER THIS.
WHY DON’T YOU DATE ANYONE?
TOO MUCH HASSLE.
THAT GUY WHO KEEPS COMMENTING ON YOUR INSTA.
HE'S PRETTY CUTE.
DAHYE.
I’LL CONFISCATE YOUR PHONE. STOP MESSING AROUND AND MEMORIZE YOUR VOCAB.
YOUR TEST IS IN 30 MINUTES. SERIOUSLY.
LAME.
GO HAVE FUN IN COLLEGE.
I WON’T SAY A WORD THEN.
I’M NOT LIKE MY SISTER.
LOVE DOESN’T PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE, SO WHY IS EVERYONE SO OBSESSED WITH IT?
THEY’RE JUST BORED WITH LIFE.
I WANTED TO FALL IN LOVE.
SHE’S RIGHT. IT WON’T PAY THE BILLS.
AH. S***.
WHY DON’T THESE SALES NUMBERS ADD UP?
STRESS.
I WANT TO SEE BEOMSEOK.
STILL, HAVING THAT WOULD MAKE LIFE BRIGHTER AND MORE COLORFUL.
BEOMSEOK IS LIKE THE COLORED PENCIL SET MY SISTER TREASURED.
SO OF COURSE I WANT HIM. HOW COULD I NOT?
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!
WHAT IS THIS?
SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE HELL?!
DID I SEE THAT WRONG? MY GAME RANK IS BRONZE, REMEMBER? MY REFLEXES ARE TRASH.
I DEFINITELY SAW IT WRONG.
THEN WHY...
I...
WHY AM I RUNNING AWAY?
I'M GOING TO D-D...
DIE!!!
FINE...
LET'S DIE!!!
WELL, MY LOVE LIFE'S ALREADY RUINED, SO...
...I'LL REINCARNATE LIKE A WEBNOVEL PROTAGONIST TO LIVE A SECOND LIFE!!!!!!
F***!!!! HEY YOU!!!
ARE YOU INSANE?! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!
ARE YOU TRYING TO INTENTIONALLY RUIN SOMEONE'S LIFE?!
QUIT THE STUPID CRAP AND CRAWL HOME, NOW!!
I'LL REALLY PRESS CHARGES!!!
I'M SORRY...
HEY, OUT OF THE WAY!!!
DON'T BLOCK THE ROAD!!!
I CAN'T DIE EVEN IF I WANT TO...
I LIKED HIM FIRST.
I DON'T NEED HER TO SPELL IT OUT TO KNOW.
HEY, DAHYE.
DINNER'S READY.
IN MY NINETEEN YEARS, I'VE NEVER BEEN BLINDSIDED THIS HARD.
WHY AREN'T YOU EATING?
DID THE CSAT GO BADLY?
I CAN'T EVEN DO MY SIGNATURE UGLY CRY.
UNBELIEVABLE.
LEAVE HER. SHE PROBABLY WANTS TO BE ALONE.
BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT HER CATCHING ME IN SUCH A PATHETIC STATE.
YEAH, DAJEONG HAS BEEN AMBITIOUS SINCE SHE WAS LITTLE.
BEOMSEOK
YO, DAHYE, WHERE U AT?
EVEN WHEN SHOPPING, SHE ALWAYS PICKED THE PRETTIER COLORS FOR HERSELF.
AND ONLY WHEN SHE GOT BORED OF IT, SHE'D TOSS IT TO ME. EVERY TIME.
BUT NO WAY...
I NEVER THOUGHT SHE'D GET HER HANDS ON BEOMSEOK TOO.
S***, WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE SO HAPPY, GRINNING LIKE IDIOTS?
F***ERS...
DAHYE,
HOW WAS THE CSAT?
WHY DIDN'T YOU PICK UP YESTERDAY?
I WAITED BECAUSE I HAD SOMETHING TO TELL YOU.
GET LOST.
WHAT'S WITH YOU? DID YOU BOMB IT?
AH!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE JUST STOP!!!!!!
I SAID GET LOST!!
HEY, WHAT THE HELL?
THAT'S GOING TOO FAR.
YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S GONE TOO FAR.
WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.
APOLOGIZE.
I'M GETTING MAD.
GO ON. GET MAD.
WE'RE DONE.
YEAH. LET'S END IT.
HEY--
DON'T DEMAND TO KNOW WHY IT HAD TO BE MY SISTER WHO ALREADY HAS EVERYTHING, AND NOT ME.
DAHYE JUNG.
HEY!
I JUST WON’T EVER SEE HIM AGAIN.
FIRST LOVE'S NOT SUPPOSED TO WORK OUT, THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT FIRST LOVE.
JUST THINK OF IT AS A NASTY SICKNESS.
ONCE IT PASSES, THAT’S IT.
Dahye describes her older sister Dajeong as the strong and successful head of the household. Shaken by exam stress and longing for Beomseok, something shocking she sees drives her to run away. Near Gupabal Station she comes face to face with death and gets scolded by a bus driver. Returning home, she refuses dinner, thinking her sister has taken everything from her, and fights with Beomseok, cutting ties with him.
