just broke up for nothing.

Considering your temper... and you

used to tell that you couldn't

get over him.

Does that mean he isn't here anymore

in this world?

That man is the one my mom

introduced me to meet.

She kept pushing me to meet him...

Doesn't look bad guy, does he?

Yes.

Hey, listen!

I'm totally OK, but you should be

obedient to man.

Man likes something more feminine.

And... don't drink a lot.

Some of guys aim at the girl intoxicated.

And it's all right with me,

but to the other guy

try to surrender for just once.

Not try to win. Good luck to you.

Where's Gyun-woo?

He left already.

He told me to follow ten rules.

I have a good memory.

I'll recite them.

First,

don't ask her to be feminine.

Second,

don't let her drink

over three glasses.

She'll beat someone.

At a cafe,

drink coffee instead

of coke or juice.

If she hits you,

act like it hurts.

If it hurts,

act like it doesn't.

On your 100th day together,

give her a rose during her class.

She'll like it a lot.

Make sure you learn

fencing and squash.

Also, be prepared to

go to prison sometimes.

If she says she'll kill you,

don't take it lightly.

You'll feel better.

If her feet hurts,

exchange shoes with her.

Finally,

she likes to write.

Encourage her.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please pay attention to here...

Gyun-woo.

Step backward on the yellow line...

Gyun-woo.

...after passenger's getting off,

take in order...

Gyun-woo.

...please use the next train.

What's his name?

Gyun-woo.

I'll do it myself.

Gyun-woo.

Where are you?

I looked all over for you.

Gyun-woo.

Come to the escalator.

Okay?

You're dead if you don't.

Hurry up.

Who told you to hug me?

Dummy.

You're supposed to dodge.

Sometimes I feel like I know

her and sometimes I don't.

We're definitely standing

at the crossroad now.

What's going on between us?

Can this relationship

last forever?

Who is it?

It's me, dad.

She told me to write

a letter and bring it.

To write it on paper.

To express my feelings,

I tried hard to find

the right words.

When I first met her,

I wanted to cure her grief,

but now I can't give her up.

I wish we can get serious.

I'm writing about

these feelings.

She's probably

writing about me now.

This is how we're

preparing to split up.

Gyun-woo.

See that mountain top?

Yeah.

Could someone hear me from there?

Probably.

No.

Probably not.

Then go over there.

I'll shout here.

If you hear me, answer me.

You want me to go over there?

Yeah.

Gyun-woo!

Can you hear me?

Gyun-woo!

I'm sorry.

I really can't help it.

Gyun-woo.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I can't help it.

I thought I was different,

but I'm just a helpless girl.

Gyun-woo.

I'm sorry.

Did you bring your letter?

Yeah.

What's that?

A time capsule.

We put our letters

in it and bury it here.

And two years later,

let's meet here again.

We'll read the letters that day,

and maybe we can

find an answer then.

This was her way

of saying good-bye,

and I kept repeating in my

mind that two years isn't long.

We open this exactly two

years later, at two o'clock.

Okay?

We can meet two years later.

When we meet then,

we'll be different

from what we are now.

We may become closer,

or stay forever apart.

We can only choose one.

Gyun-woo.

You go first.

Let's separate here.

Let's go together.

No, I'll take the next train.

I think that's better.

See you two years later!

Okay, in two years!

Two years!

Bye!

Gyun-woo!

That's how we broke up.

Overtime

I couldn't endure the

Ioneliness after we broke up.

Thinking of those memories,

I started to write about

our stories on the Internet.

Then I made up my mind.

If I meet her again,

I'll show her a different me.

Got to make use of my time.

For her and my future's sake.

Why does the ball

keep hitting my face?

I wrote our stories on

the Internet everyday,

and I kept myself

busy for two years.

Excuse me.

I wrote "My Sassy Girl."

Shin Cine saw my writing,

and offered to make

a movie out of it.

I made her dream come true instead.

I wanted to tell her right away,

but I can only wait till that day.

She didn't come.

It's our only day to meet.

No one knows when she will come.

How did it get in there?

It's a mystery.

Gyun-woo.

Hi, Gyun-woo.

I was so happy while being with you.

I'm not sure if you knew,

but the person I loved

passed away.

The day when I first met you

was the day he died a year ago.

Actually, I tried to

look for him in you.

I know it was wrong.

I'm sorry.

I also met him on the subway.

I was really sick at that time.

He did everything I wanted.

Like you did.

Under this tree,

we planned our future together.

But he suddenly passed away.

While I was dating you,

I met his mother often.

She wanted to introduce

a nice man to me,

but I couldn't.

The day I first met you,

I came under this tree,

and I prayed to him.

To let me free.

When I met you,

this occurred to me.

That maybe he

introduced you to me.

But the more I met you,

he seemed to grow

jealous of you in me.

The more I liked you,

I felt guilty inside.

While the two of us are apart,

I want to forget him alone.

After that day,

I went often to this place.

If I'm not with you

after two years,

it means I still lack courage.

How much will we

change after two years?

I feel like you

live in the future,

and I live in the past.

I want to meet you soon,

so I can read your letter.

Why are you staring at me, sir?

Because you're so pretty.

I thought an angel came down.

Do you come here often?

Sometimes.

This tree has a secret.

I have a secret here, too.

Really?

Three years ago,

I buried a letter here

with my boyfriend

What's your secret?

So what happened?

We promised to read

the letters a year ago.

But I couldn't come.

I guess you're a year late.

But two years didn't seem that long.

I haven't made any decision yet.

I just wasted my time

on stupid thoughts.

Like what?

If we were destined to meet,

I thought we'd meet

by chance somewhere.

Know what fate is?

Building a bridge of chance

for someone you love.

To be honest,

I read your letters.

I said this tree

had a secret, right?

Yes.

Look closely.

Does this tree look

the same as before?

Well, it looks like

it changed a bit.

But I'm not sure.

People are dead or alive.

There's a dead tree

and a living tree, too.

This tree was struck dead

by lightning last year.

It was split into two.

But this young man

felt sorry for it.

During this spring,

he planted another tree

that looked the same.

When he planted the tree,

he asked me if it look the same.

He said that someone

would be sad if it died,

so no one should know.

Gyun-woo...

You call a wrong number or

the dial is not in service.

Please call again.

Hi.

It's been a while.

You've gotten prettier.

You still look young.

How have you been?

You were in England?

Yes.

For one and a half years.

So I can forget him.

I see.

Feel better?

Yes.

A lot better.
