No, I write novels.

I also write song lyrics.

You're a writer?

Well, yes. And you?

I import films.

Here.

There's nothing good in this year's market.

Yes...

I'd better go in.

Forgive me if I was rude.

Nice meeting you.

Maybe it's a sign meeting her in Berlin.

Although short, her smile at the end

felt like an angelic light

to save me from my pains.

It's the start of a typical

fever of romance.

I have to find her and ask her

to answer to my love.

How do I get to her?

Call her and ask her out?

So mundane.

Women like classic methods.

You're an author.

Like Young werther, write a love letter.

A letter?

That's right.

One thing to keep in mind.

Don't be too serious.

She'll feel burderned.

Know why werther failed at love?

Because of his awful sense of humor.

Humor has won women over for generations.

- What's that?

- Hmm?

Greetings, Lady Heejin.

Do you recall our chance meeting

by the lake in Berlin?

I am KHOO Joo-wol who goes

here and there.

The banquet was filled with

film envoys from various countries.

The hustle and bustle was much

like a market place.

As a young lad of culture,

I was chatting with numerous figures.

I met thee and almost fainted

by your beauty.

Like a midsummer dog

I swallowed back saliva.

In Confucius and Mencius ways,

I fear I haven't done well

in our first meeting.

So, I write this letter in dire apology.

If thy art not busy, honor me

with thy presence to dinner.

I would love to chat with you

over a drink of cocktail.

I took the courage, so please

do not scold me for ill manners.

I shall await your dear reply.

Toodles.

- What is it?

- This is hilarious!

What's wrong?

No response from her?

Wait. She must have a reason.

I guess.

Must be some unavoidable reason.

Like a very strict, disapproving father.

Or her fiance in the States

took her away to New York.

She could be stuck in the hospital

and crying cuz she can't call me.

All I can do is just wait.

But waiting is torture.

Just think God is testing your love.

Think of Werther's painful nights

after writing letters to Lotte.

Though his love for Lotte was painful.

That's why werther's waiting is so revered.

She is a noble being who can

give such pain to you.

Then, in order to prove my love

and ease her of pain,

should I just end my life

by shooting myself?

You should stop reading books.

Okay.

Try fishing instead.

- Fishing?

- That's right.

It's great for mental health.

Think of women as fish.

Sh*t.

If the fish doesn't touch the bait.

Then, you move to another point.

Meet other women!

Joo-wol! Call for you.

Who is it?

I'm Joo-wol's older brother.

He's sick.

Who's calling?

Says it's LEE Heejin.
