“Girls are taught a lot of stuff growing up. If a guy punches you, he likes you. Never try to trim your own bangs.”
A beautiful sunny day on the harbor. Out on the sparkling water, Lay's boat. As we get closer, we see garlands on the rails, on the bough. Even closer and we see - Krystal on the arm of her father. Jung Hyun Suk escorts her down a mini aisle. On the bough of the boat - is a wedding. And Lay, waiting for Krystal at the altar.
“And someday you will meet a wonderful guy and get your very own happy ending.”

Let us move to Seoul now, it’s a girly apartment when Sulli sits at her desk, typing on her laptop. On its screen, there’s ‘Choi Sulli’s MySpace Profile’.
“Every movie we see, every story we're told, implores us to wait for it. The third act twist. The man who couldn't get it together finally figures it out. The unexpected declaration of love...”
Sulli hits a button and a box comes up, which reads: ‘ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE THIS MYSPACE PROFILE?’ Sulli clicks ‘YES’. After that ‘MySpace profile DELETED appears’.
Then, a knock on the door. Sulli gets up, grabs her little purse, and opens the door. It’s Sehun. Sulli smiles, her face barely able to contain her happiness.

“How to tell the ones who want us from the ones who don't. The one's who'll stay from the one's who'll leave.”

At the supermarket when the first time Tao meet Yoona. There’s Tao heads to the checkout line - holding a six-pack of beer and a bag of chips. As he's about to put his stuff down, a pretty girl gets in line behind him. He lets her go ahead of him. She smiles, takes him up on it. The cashier rings her up; she pays for her stuff, without giving Tao so much as a look. Tao gives his stuff to the cashier, along with a weak smile.
“And maybe this happy ending
