W-WHY...
...IN THE WORLD...
...IS THIS HAPPENING AGAIN?!
Episode 1
I STILL REMEMBER...
THE DAY I FIRST MET HIM.
OUCH...
IT WAS SUMMER, BUT THE WIND WAS UNUSUALLY COLD.
I STARTED RUNNING OUT OF EXCITEMENT AND TRIPPED LIKE AN IDIOT.
THEY SAY IF YOU CUT THE PALM OF YOUR HAND, THE LINES CHANGE SHAPE.
IF THAT'S TRUE, DID MY DESTINY ALSO CHANGE THAT DAY?
Roun Lee Seonyul Oh
Hojeong Lee Hwaeryeo Lee
WHEN I ARRIVED AT SCHOOL THAT DAY I FOUND THAT...
Seonyul Oh
Hwaeryeo Lee
...THE BOY I'D BUMPED INTO ON THE STREET WAS SEATED RIGHT NEXT TO ME.
THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN.
AND AGAIN.
AND AGAIN.
SOMEHOW, WE ALWAYS ENDED UP SITTING NEXT TO EACH OTHER.
PFFT!
WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH YOU TWO?
HOW MANY TIMES IS THIS NOW?
WERE YOU MARRIED IN A PAST LIFE OR SOMETHING?
WOULD YOU MIND SHUTTING THE BEEP UP?
HE AND I...
HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN COMMON.
Roun Lee - Excels at science - Valedictorian - Wealthy family - Parents both doctors - Cynical
Seonyul Oh - Excels at the arts - Average student - Average family - Lives with her grandmother - Softly spoken
AND YET,
SOMEHOW WE JUST COULDN'T SEEM TO AVOID EACH OTHER.
BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING...
...EVEN STRANGER THAN THAT.
SERIOUSLY?!
WE'RE TRAPPED TOGETHER AGAIN?!
WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!
I-I'M SCARED!
I DON'T ENJOY BEING STUCK WITH YOU EITHER, OKAY?!
HELLO? IS ANYONE THERE? PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR FOR US!
FOR SOME REASON,
PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR FOR US!
WE WERE CURSED WITH THE MOST BIZARRE JINX.
THE NURSE'S OFFICE.
OUR CLASSROOM.
EVEN THE ELEVATOR.
EVERY TIME THE TWO OF US WERE LEFT ALONE,
WE'D END UP TRAPPED TOGETHER.
THANKFULLY,
IF WE JUST STAYED CALM AND WAITED...
YOU TWO AGAIN?
...WE ALWAYS MANAGED...
TO GET OUT SAFELY.
DOES HE REALLY THINK I WANT TO GET TRAPPED WITH HIM?!
DOES HE HAVE TO MAKE IT SO OBVIOUS THAT HE HATES ME?
WE KEEP ENDING UP TOGETHER, BUT HE'S NEVER ACKNOWLEDGED ME! NOT ONCE!
AND WHENEVER I WORK UP THE COURAGE TO TALK TO HIM, HE JUST IGNORES ME.
I'M STUCK SITTING NEXT TO HIM...
...BUT FROM NOW ON...
...I'M MAKING SURE I NEVER RUN INTO HIM AGAIN.
JUST WAIT AND SEE!
HEY.
CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING?
HUH?
W-WHAT IS IT?
macy and Clinic
YOU PLAY THE PIANO,
RIGHT?
I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH SOMETHING IN MUSIC THEORY.
OH...
OF COURSE THAT'S THE KIND OF THING HE'D WANNA ASK ME ABOUT...
Y-YEAH, I DO PLAY.
WHAT DO YOU NEED HELP WITH?
Conversational English 000-0000
THIS PART...
ABOUT FUNCTIONAL HARMONY.
OH, THIS?
IT'S ACTUALLY PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD.
I GUESS EVEN THE TOP STUDENT GETS STUMPED SOMETIMES.
I WOULD NEVER HAVE GUESSED...
YOU CAN BREAK DOWN THE CHORDS...
...LIKE THIS.
SEE?
SORRY, CAN YOU EXPLAIN IT ONE MORE TIME?
SURE!
IF YOU LOOK HERE--
HEY!
WAIT, YOU DUMB BIRD!
STOP RIGHT THERE!
IF WE CATCH YOU, YOU'RE DEAD--
EWW, GROSS!
QUICK, LET'S RUN!
UGH... I REALLY WISH I HADN'T SEEN THAT...
I REALLY WISH I HADN'T SEEN THAT...
HUH?
UM...
YOU'RE STANDING A LITTLE CLOSE.
?!
HE'S ACTING WEIRD...
TH-THANKS.
I THINK I GET IT NOW.
I'D BETTER GO.
GET HOME SAFE.
OH, OKAY.
BYE.
SEE YOU AT SCHOOL TOMORROW!
ARE WE FINALLY GETTING ALONG?
I DON'T EXPECT US TO BECOME BEST FRIENDS...
...BUT I DO WISH HE WOULDN'T FEEL SO UNCOMFORTABLE AROUND ME ANYMORE.
THAT HOPE PROVED TO BE SHORT-LIVED.
HE VERY QUICKLY...
WENT RIGHT BACK TO ACTING LIKE I WAS INVISIBLE.
I WANT TO TALK TO HIM...
...BUT HIS NOSE IS ALWAYS BURIED IN A TEXTBOOK.
I KNOW HE'S JUST FOCUSED ON GETTING GOOD GRADES...

...BUT COULDN'T HE BE A LITTLE NICER TO ME?
OH, WELL.
IN A FEW MORE MONTHS, WE'LL GRADUATE... AND I'LL PROBABLY NEVER SEE HIM AGAIN, ANYWAY.
AFTER ALL, HE'LL BE STUDYING MEDICINE...
WHILE I'LL BE STUDYING MUSIC.
WE MAY HAVE HAD OUR FAIR SHARE OF STRANGE COINCIDENCES...
...BUT ONCE WE GO TO COLLEGE...
...HE'LL BE OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND.
OR...
...SO I THOUGHT.
SAME COLLEGE
MUSIC BUILDING
PRE-MED BUILDING
UGH...
GREAT, NOW I CAN'T GET HIM OUT OF MY HEAD!
WHY DO I KEEP RUNNING INTO HIM?
avian
HOW IS HE SO CALM ABOUT THIS?
DOESN'T HE THINK IT'S WEIRD AT ALL?
MORNING, YUL!
HI, SUJEONG!
WHAT WERE YOU LOOKING AT?
HMM?
OOH!
THE PRE-MED FRESHMAN? HE'S FAMOUS ALREADY!
avian
H-HE'S FAMOUS?
UH-HUH!
EVERYONE'S BEEN TALKING ABOUT HOW HANDSOME HE IS.
Anon anyone know the handsome guy who was studying by the pre-med building today? help a girl out and give me his number! Anon finally saw the pre-med guy everyone's talking about. so hot, lol
Anon finally saw the pre-med guy everyone's talking about. so hot, lol
Anon whoever's drumming in the music building, chill out. i thought there was arthquake
THIS IS MY FIRST TIME SEEING HIM IN PERSON... WOW, HE LOOKS LIKE A CELEBRITY.
AND HE'S PRE-MED?
NO WONDER EVERYONE'S ALL OVER HIM.
HOW COME THERE AREN'T ANY GOOD-LOOKING MUSIC MAJORS?
IS HE THAT HANDSOME?
I GUESS...
...HE SORT OF IS--
DON'T THINK ABOUT IT.
HIS DEPARTMENT MIGHT BE RIGHT NEXT DOOR...
...BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE'LL KEEP RUNNING INTO EACH OTHER, RIGHT?
WAIT UP!
SEONYUL OH?
WE SPENT NEARLY EVERY DAY TOGETHER FOR A WHOLE YEAR,
YET WE DIDN'T KNOW A THING ABOUT EACH OTHER.
WE NEVER EVEN HAD...
A REAL CONVERSATION.
THAT'S WHY I THOUGHT THAT, EVEN IF WE ENDED UP AT THE SAME COLLEGE...
...WHATEVER STRANGE CONNECTION WE HAD WOULD FINALLY BE OVER.
I REALLY BELIEVED THAT.
THE PERSON YOU ARE TRYING TO REACH IS UNAVAILABLE.
PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE AFTER THE TONE...
NOT PICKING UP?
GUCCI
NOPE...
SO WE'RE SCREWED?!
HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO THIS ASSIGNMENT WITHOUT A SINGER?!
THAT'S IT! WE'RE FAILING THIS FINAL GROUP PROJECT!
HE'S RIGHT. WE CAN'T DO THIS SONG WITHOUT A SINGER.
HAS ANYONE HERE EVER SUNG ON STAGE BEFORE? EVEN JUST ONCE?
I DOUBT IT.
WE ALL PLAY INSTRUMENTS.
HMM
C'MON, THERE HAS TO BE SOMEONE.
YOU! YOU DO IT!
WE HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE.
HUUUH? WHY ME?!
WHY DON'T YOU DO IT?
I CAN'T REACH THE HIGH NOTES.
WELL, MY VOICE ALWAYS CRACKS WHEN I SING.
I CAN'T DO IT EITHER. I HATE HAVING THE SPOTLIGHT ON ME. I'M A TOTAL INTROVERT.
HMM, THEN...
I'M A TOTAL INTROVERT.
...HOW ABOUT YOU, SEONYUL?
?!
M-ME?
B-BUT I DON'T SING--
WAIT, YEAH! YOU'D BE PERFECT!
THE SONG TOTALLY MATCHES YOUR VIBE.
UH... BUT...
BUT...
IT'S TRUE!
I TOTALLY AGREE!
WELL THEN, IT'S DECIDED.
LOOK, SHE'S NOT SAYING NO!
I-I'VE NEVER SUNG BEFORE IN MY LIFE!
BUT I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO SAY NO!
PHEW! THAT'S ONE LESS THING TO WORRY ABOUT. THANKS, SEONYUL.
IF YOU NEED HELP WITH ANYTHING, AND I MEAN ANYTHING, LET ME KNOW!
YOU'VE GOT THIS!
AAAACK!
WHAT'S THAT NOISE?
PROBABLY AN APPLIED MUSIC MAJOR SMASHING ON THE DRUMS.
I SAW SOMEONE POST ABOUT THEM ON THE FORUM.
DO THEY HAVE TO PLAY SO LOUD?
Bulletin Board
WHY'S IT SO HARD TO SAY "NO"?
NOW WHAT AM I GONNA DO?
JUST THINKING ABOUT SINGING MAKES ME FEEL SICK...
IS THAT THE SOUND OF DRUMS, OR MY HEART BEATING?
BUT...
..WHAT CHOICE DO I HAVE?
TIME TO PRACTICE, I GUESS...
IT'S FINE. I CAN DO THIS.

WATCH OUT!
HUH?!

GET TRAPPED TOGETHER...

AND...
...IN THIS TINY BOOTH, OF ALL PLACES?!
Trapped Together Chapter Draft 1 tells the story of Seonyul Oh's endless strange encounters with Roun Lee and their curse of getting trapped together. Starting with colliding on the street in high school and being seated side by side, the jinx repeats in the infirmary, the classroom, and the elevator. Seonyul, who plays the piano, creates a brief closeness by helping with music theory, but Roun ignores her again. Even in college, their encounters continue on the same campus.
