I hoped I would never see you again

prologue🖤

최승철

Kwon Soon-young, you have to return the book you borrowed.

최승철

I have something to return too, let's go together.

권순영

Oh, I haven't read it all yet.

최승철

What? How many are left?

권순영

Hmm.. (counting how many sheets there are)

권순영

About 10 sheets?

최승철

There's not much left

최승철

I'm reading while I return it

최승철

Just read it quickly and return it.

권순영

Yeah, that's right

최승철

But what's the name of that book? It's this year's bestseller, right?

권순영

Ah, it's my '17th birthday', but it's more fun than I thought.

최승철

If it's fun, read it all and lend me some too.

ㆍㆍㆍ

최승철

I'm finishing reading it so I'll return it and come back.

권순영

Yeah, I'm going

권순영

Because there are only 10 chapters left

권순영

I'll sit here for a bit and read before I go.

권순영

I read it all(?)

권순영

Huh? Why is there no follow-up?

권순영

I'm curious about what it is

권순영

Who tore it?

Kukgu-kung- squeak-

권순영

What is this sound?

There was a vibration from the bookshelf I was leaning against.

I quickly pulled my back from the bookshelf and stared at it.

Then, a little later, the bookshelf opened like a door.

A girl came out

권순영

Okay... wait a minute, what is this?

최여주

Uh..uh what is this? Where is this place?

권순영

What, what are you

최여주

Yeah, I'm confused too.

권순영

Hey! You just wait a minute

Whirik- (turning the page)

권순영

Here! Look here

권순영

You look exactly like the female protagonist of this book, Choi Yeo-ju.

권순영

The clothes I'm wearing now are like that too...

최여주

My name is Choi Yeo-ju, right?

최여주

But what's that book? Can I read it?

권순영

Yeah (hands the book)

최여주

What is this book?

최여주

I wrote down everything about my life.

최여주

Hey, but did you write this book?

권순영

No, this is a book written by a very famous author.

권순영

It's a bestseller because it's so popular.

최여주

So, are you saying I'm a character in a book?

권순영

I guess so.. (I can't believe it)

권순영

But how did you get here?

최여주

No, that's not the problem

최여주

I'm a character in a book!

최여주

Then what is this? (Opens the book and shows it)

권순영

Th...is this me?

최여주

Yeah, exactly like you

최여주

Your name is Kwon Soon-young

권순영

Oh, right

최여주

The male protagonist's name in this book is also Kwon Soon-young.

권순영

I'll read that book just once.

권순영

What the... You really wrote my life exactly like that?

권순영

So, am I a character in a book? Is this a book?

권순영

Man... that's ridiculous

최여주

But look, the story of how you met me is being written on the back of the book.

권순영

(impact)

권순영

So... to sum it up, we both come from different books.

권순영

You came into my book?

권순영

But how did you get in?

최여주

No, there's a book you're in. It's called 'First Love'.

최여주

I went to the library to borrow the book ‘First Love’

최여주

It was so fun that I kept reading it on the spot.

최여주

But I read all the way to the last page, but there's no follow-up content.

최여주

So I was wondering and when I opened my eyes, there was the male lead of my ‘first love’ right in front of me.. haha

최여주

I'm also very confused...

권순영

..what should I do with this

권순영

I'm shocked that I was a character in a book.

최여주

Same goes for me?

최여주

Hey, wait, give me that book called '17th Birthday'

권순영

Huh? Yeah

최여주

Look at this, something is written on a blank piece of paper.

‘I hoped I would never see you again’

최여주

What does this mean?

권순영

book..

최여주

what?

권순영

It's the name of the book

권순영

I saw it passing by on the bookshelf earlier

Swish- (picks up a book)

권순영

Here it is

최여주

This is a real book..

최여주

Spread it out once

권순영

Look here, something is being written again

“The author of this book committed suicide some time ago.”

“Please continue the story according to the script in the book.”

“Caution: Never attempt to change the contents of this book.”

“If you change it, the chances of the book’s story ending in a sad way increase.”

최여주

What is this?

최여주

Ha.. I'm confused

최여주

Uh...uh! Something's being written again

“If you go through the open bookshelf door at the back”

"I should never have seen you again, but you can go inside."

권순영

You want to send the two of us, who came from different books, into different books to complete the story?

최여주

Let's go, we have no choice

권순영

Hey, wait, I don't think I'm done talking yet.

“It would be better to check the characters before going.”

권순영

Open the character introduction page

최여주

huh

홍지수

Hong Ji-soo/19 years old/Male lead/Affectionate only to those she likes

조연희

Jo Yeon-hee/19 years old/female lead

김민규

Kim Min-gyu/19 years old/second male lead/likes Yeon-hee

권순영

Kwon Soon-young/19 years old/second male lead/likes Yeon-hee

권순영

Why am I a sub guy? And I'm 18 years old.

최여주

I think he's 19 in the book

권순영

Is that so?

최여주

Choi Yeo-ju/19 years old/supporting role/the female protagonist, Yeon-hee's best friend, has a crush on Hong Ji-soo, who is dating Yeon-hee.

최여주

I don't like my character...

이지훈

Lee Ji-hoon / 19 years old / Yeon-hee's childhood friend

“More characters may be added in the future.”

권순영

More characters may be added

최여주

okay?

최여주

Hey, let's go in now

ㆍㆍㆍ

dot

dot

최여주

Hwaaam..

최여주

What, it wasn't a dream

최여주

I really came into a different book

Then I felt something touch my hand.

최여주

What is this

최여주

Ah, 'I hoped I'd never see you again'. Yes.

최여주

I wonder if Kwon Soon-young has this book too.

최여주

Where can I hear my lines...

최여주

Ha..going to school with Yeoju from the first day

엄마

Choi Yeo-ju, wake up!! Aren't you going to school?

엄마

Yeonhee has been waiting for you since a while ago.

최여주

Yes, yes
