I'm cursed with unrequited love (phew)
01. The one who loves more suffers more


He has no parents and has few memories of his childhood.

Before he was old enough to remember his parents' faces,

I was already growing up in an orphanage.

That was until he left the orphanage when he was in middle school.

I didn't remember much.

What I remember is that his favorite toy car was

The orphanage director who always wore the same clothes,

And it was one of the few dramas where such a director was present.

수녀 원장님
Ugh...ugh


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Teacher...! Jiwon ate my sausage... Why are you crying?

The young boy looked at the director, who was always warm, with a worried expression as he cried.

수녀 원장님
Ah... Joo Won...? This drama is so sad...

As the teacher spoke and started watching the drama again, Joo-won also started watching the drama.


After watching the drama, Joo Won realized one thing.

I made a promise that love hurts and causes suffering.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
I will never love

3 years later...


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
I'll go

편의점 사장님
Yeah, go and rest

Joo-won said goodbye and left the convenience store.

Even though it was spring, the morning air was quite cold.


Joo-won unlocked the container, opened the door, and went inside.

The house had a fairly comfortable layout.

All that was inside was a calendar, a sleeping bag, and a bunch of notebooks packed tightly together.

Joo Won lay down his tired body.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
under....

Joo Won reached out and picked up the household account book.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
130...

The orphanage went bankrupt, and Joo-won, who was a middle school student, started making money.

Survival was paramount to him, and he rarely went to middle school.

For him, everything but making money was a luxury.

However, high school was different.

It was difficult to get out because money was flowing out.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
I really don't want to go...

There was only one reason why he went to high school.

The last request of the deceased orphanage director.

3 years ago


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Director...you can't die...sob...sob

수녀 원장님
It's okay. Joo-won, let's make one promise with the teacher.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
...black

수녀 원장님
Even if you can't do it, you should definitely graduate from high school. Go to school and live happily, laughing and having fun...


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
...

수녀 원장님
I've already prepared the tuition... I'm sorry I can't do more than this...

He decided to go to school even if it meant wasting money on the deceased principal.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
...after...

Joo-won fell asleep like that.

Joo-won, who was attending school, had one goal.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Be unnoticed

But his goal crumbled the moment he encountered her.

???
Wow.. isn't that her.. Jang Won-young?

???
I think it's right... Are you a proportional person...?

???
Looks... I'm sick of it... Really

???
Wow... I think I'm in love now...


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
...?

The kids whispered behind Juwon as he walked up the road to school.

The children's gaze was directed at the female student getting out of the car right in front of Juwon.


안 유진
Hey, Jang Wo-nyong!


장 원영
huh...?

Wonyoung took out the earphones from his ears as he watched Yujin running towards him at incredible speed and hugging him.


안 유진
let's go!


장 원영
huh

Two female students passed right in front of Joo Won.

Joo-won and Won-young's eyes met.

And Joo-won could feel it in an instant.

If I have to love someone in my life that doesn't have love, I have to do it with this woman.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Am I crazy...?

He muttered and took a half step forward.

But he eventually fell in love with her.

Joo-won, who had nothing, kept hitting on Won-young, who was pretty, good at studying, and from a rich family.

Wonyoung's answer was rejection.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
i like you


장 원영
Sorry, you're not my style.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
What part don't you like...?


장 원영
...looking at you like this


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
....

Three years passed like that.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Ha...Jang Won-young...

After the graduation ceremony, Joo-won gave Won-young a final ride and went up the mountain.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
What makes you so great...!


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
...ha...it's really ugly..

Only then did Joo Won remember his life motto.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
It wasn't something like love...

Joo Won drank a large glass of soju.

It was a bonus given by the convenience store owner to Joo-won, who had been depressed all day after being dumped by Won-young.


Joo-won became increasingly drunk and started acting up.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Jang Won-young!!! Are you listening!!!


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
I fucking love you!!!


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Even though you kicked me and I feel like shit!!!


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Why do I keep thinking of you...?


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
The curse of this useless unrequited love...


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
Please, I beg you..

Joo Won looked at the stars and prayed earnestly.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
No matter what happens...no matter what happens to someone like me, please...make Wonyoung love me!!!

Joo Won cried like that and passed out drunk.


No, it definitely should have been that way.


이 주원 (WIZ*ONE)
But why... did you go back to 3 years ago!!!

To be continued...
