LOTTE ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS

A PROGRESS PICTURES PRODUCTION

I work as a librarian.

I've been working here for 8 years.

7 months. 26 days.

13 hours. 26 minutes. 19 seconds.

20. 21...

I help with borrowing. Returning...

and organizing books in the library.

Entering bar codes

and numbering take more work.

You must be careful.

I think I'm suited for this.

I love my job.

Good afternoon.

Hello.

As you probably guessed...

I have a crush on her.

It's my first time.

I've never seen her

with long nails.

Her hair is never out of place.

She always lines things up in order.

In this filthy...

unsanitary...

Want some?

Germ-filled, dirty world...

She's like a sterile-clean zone.

And the only one.

Who'd understand me.

I kept notes on

100 days with her.

What I bought and what we said.

Wore white shirt from last Thursday.

Paid 70 cents.

Talked for 2 minutes 10 seconds.

Why keep track?

I told you, I like her.

But why all this...

I think it's a necessary step.

If you like someone,

you observe them.

So, of course

you record everything.

And when you're sure

she's the one...

You confess. Normally.

Right. Of course.

Did you confess your feelings?

I set the alarm.

THE PLAN MAN:

06:
00 WAKE UP

I woke up refreshed

and on time as always.

06:
05 MAKE THE BED

I changed the sheets.

IRON DOWN STIFFLY

And started the day

nice and clean.

STERILIZE:

I washed thoroughly.

7:
30 CLEAN UP BATHROOM

Cleaning up afterwards

is good etiquette.

Today is Wednesday

On Wednesday. Sky Blue.

08:
00 GET DRESSED

I took my notes...

and right on time...

08:
30 GO TO WORK

I headed out the door.

Things run smoothly

08:
42 CROSS THE STREE when you move to plans.

My long-awaited lunch break.

12:
00 LUNCH TIME

12:
15 CONFESS TO HER!

Well, I think it's time.

I've watched you for 100 days,

Ji-won, and recorded...

What?

What the!

Are you okay?

Mister!

Wait!

You forgot this!

This wasn't in my plan.

This wasn't in my plan.

This wasn't in my plan.

This wasn't in my plan.

Hey, kid! Wait!

Grandma!

It's not mine.

What is it?

Are you okay?

- Did he hurt you?

- I can explain.

There was a lady here

this afternoon.

But she's not the one

normally here.

- Where'd it go?

- What about her?

You mean Aunt So-Jung?

Huh?

Welcome.

I'm looking for someone.

Before the expiry date.

Before I'm too late.

I'll microwave you.

30 seconds.

Don't worry.

Triangle gimbap.

30 seconds is all you need.

Don't cry.

Triangle gimbap.

Now. Come into my mouth.

Ah...

Thank you.

Kind of a gloomy song

for a fine day, huh?

Now, I'll sing my hot, new song.

It's called,

'Plan Man'.

Your day begins with an alarm,

Alarms are always on time,

Get up to the wake up alarm,

Wash to the shower alarm,

Leave to the work alarm,

When the alarm rings

at 12:
15 p. M.,

You go inside a store,

At the store,

She is always there,

You want to tell her

how you feel.

So you set an alarm and plan,

To make the perfect confession.

So you set an alarm and plan,

For the only girl,

who is exactly like you.

Like me,

Like him,

Like her.

Lonely you.

It's 'Plan Man'!

He's the Plan Man!

Wow!

Plan Man!

Plan Man!

Plan Man!

Plan Man!

Plan Man!

Plan Man!

That's personal!

Wait! Mister!

Hold on! Mister!

Wait!

I'm sorry

I was going to take a peep...

But it was so fun,

I read it all.

Mister!

I'm sorry.

Mister.

Mister?

Want my help?

I'm really close with Ji-won.

For real!

Forget it then!

But she mentioned you

a few times.

A guy who comes

every day at the same time.

What did she say again?

Wait!

Come back!

Wait!

Come back!

Please?

What a strange woman.

Making a song out of my story!

Anyway, that's how I met Ji-won

Finally!

You're HAN Jung-seok?

Yes, I'm HAN Jung-seok.

You always come

at the same time.

And line things up

perfectly straight.

Well, yes.

But...

I hate that.

Pardon?

I started therapy.

Why don't you try it, too?

Therapy?

I'm comfortable and happy

the way I am now.

Are you really happy?

With no one to eat with

and setting alarms to everything?

You're really happy?

Know why they're like this?

Because I wash too much.

I wash them

hundreds of times a day.

I can't even shake hands with

people I'm glad to see.

I'm not happy.

I can't stand living like this.

I hate it!

I'll live recklessly.

I won't wash my hands.

And this!

I won't clean it up!

Ji-won...

Your purse.

Though I can't now.

But I'll change.

I can't stand the way

that I am now.

I'm sorry.

But I hate you

because you're like that, too!

Ji-won!

Mr. HAN?

Mr. HAN Jung-seok?

Yes?

Beef tripe and Soju

are perfect for a day like this.

Mister?

Wanna do this?

Band auditions?

How can she ask that?

Well...

Why do you think?

How would I know!

You get musically sensitive

and creative at times like this.

From my experience...

Just kidding.

It's a band audition.

I can't go alone.

Why me!

The lyrics for my new song

came from your notes.

Copyright issues can get messy.

So we can sing it together.

We just met.

Why together?

Maybe it's cuz

I read your notes.

I feel like I know you

like an old friend.

Are you out of your mind?

I'm not crazy.

She keeps calling me, 'Mister'.

Then, suddenly a friend.

How am I her friend...

I see.

Let me get this straight.

You came here because...

you confessed to a woman

and she told you to get therapy?

Then, another woman

asked you to be in a band together?

She's not just a woman.

I watched her for 100 days.

Right!

So, let's show her

that you've changed.

She said she hates what you do,

not you the person.

Right?

Yes, but...

Let's write down what you do

differently from others.

Here.

Let's start writing.

It's ripped.

Why'd you do that?

It's ripped.

I'll just write it down here.

It's okay. This will do.

First.

Set alarms to everything.

Second, third, fourth...

You write the rest at home.

We're not alone.

Ask your friends and family.

And bring it to our next session.

But why...

Come again?

Are you really happy?

With no one to eat with

and setting alarms to everything?

You're really happy?

22:
00 SLEEP

Eun-ha?

Yes?

I was wondering...

What do you think of me?

Look.

I have a boyfriend.

What?

So weird.

You're a little weird.

See a shrink.

No.

Who says you're weird?

Really?

I'm not weird?

Huh?

Let's have spaghetti.

I have a coupon.

- I'm not...

- I got a call.

Hon? Did you have lunch?

I'm dying here.

How about spicy soup?

Sounds perfect!

- Not me.

- How about Chinese?

Hello.

He really does come on time.

Ah... In your opinion...

Do you think I'm weird?

You're totally weird.

Who comes into a store

to a set alarm?

And why line up

the triangle gimbaps?

What are you wearing?

Unbutton your shirt.

It's hot out.

I unbuttoned one.

How've you been?

- Are you new?

- Yes.

Writing better these days?

Get your eyes off me.

Mr. HAN Jung-seok

is joining us today.

Let's all greet him, shall we?

We appreciate your courage.

I tried to write something
