00:10There are many important birthdays during one's life.
00:14Your first, then 10, double digits, 13, obviously, 15 or 16, depending on your heritage, and
00:21then the big one eight.
00:37How was your body scrub?
00:40My almost adult skin is feeling as soft as a newborn baby.
00:45Now, is your glow from your facial, or because things between you and Juliana are heating
00:50back up after the fashion show?
00:52The facial?
00:54Honestly, I would die of happiness if we could be more than friends.
00:58But after the way I hurt her last year, she would have to make the first move.
01:03What about you and Mino?
01:04I don't know.
01:05Even if he wanted to make it work, how could it if I'm going to NYU?
01:10Anyway, do you still have an RSVP to my birthday party invite?
01:13Yeah, about that.
01:17There's no way you're not coming to my 18th birthday party.
01:19I know, I'm sorry.
01:21I already promised Yisu I would house it on Saturday.
01:23But I have an entire itinerary laid out in my journal.
01:26I even found the perfect party dress.
01:28Look.
01:30Camellia pink.
01:32What camellia?
01:33It was my mom's favorite flower.
01:35Birthdays always make me think of her.
01:37I think she'd like that I'm celebrating with all the friends who helped me become the person
01:40I am.
01:42And you are definitely one of those friends.
01:44Aw, kitty.
01:46I still can't go.
01:48Yuri!
01:49Shh!
01:49Jai-sung hamida.
01:52Okay, well, Yuri's dead to me.
01:54Kidding.
01:55But come on.
01:56It's my birthday.
02:01Oh, day.
02:02I'm so glad you're here.
02:03I think that my birthday invite got lost in your spam folder.
02:06You'll be there, right?
02:06I wish I could, but I have a thing at my dad's restaurant.
02:12Yep.
02:13Oh.
02:14But I only turned 18 once.
02:16Sorry.
02:19Should I have sent out Save the Dates?
02:22Ooh.
02:23Uh-uh-uh.
02:24Those are for Jin.
02:25Mm.
02:26You're trying to butter him up.
02:27Make him feel badder by showing how much you need him.
02:30That was cute.
02:31I like that.
02:32I've been leaving him treats and gifts to show him how much I care.
02:35Mm.
02:36Well, I think a demonstration of love beats a declaration of love any day.
02:39Look at you with your soon-to-be adult wisdom.
02:42Speaking of...
02:43So, Kitty, I have some bad news.
02:44I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it here.
02:47No.
02:47You are coming to my birthday party.
02:49I can't.
02:51I have a thing for track.
02:53It's a track thing, so...
02:56Hmm.
02:58Please stop looking at me like that.
02:59First Yuri blows off my party, and then Day, and now you.
03:06Oh, my God.
03:07Are you throwing me a surprise party?
03:09No one's ever thrown me one before!
03:11Maybe that's because you're always in everyone's business, Kitty.
03:14Wait, what's the ruse?
03:15Where are we going?
03:16What should I be wearing?
03:16Because there's this dress that I really...
03:18You said too much.
03:18And don't go digging for information, okay?
03:20You're just gonna have to wait and see what we have planned.
03:24Me.
03:25Wait and see.
03:26Yeah, tall order.
03:27But fine.
03:28I'll play along.
03:39NYU, here I come!
03:40Yay!
03:42Kitty, you have so much to celebrate.
03:44NYU, your 18th birthday.
03:46Sorry to miss your party.
03:48Yeah, we have a thing across town on Saturday, so...
03:52Where across town?
03:54Hongdae?
03:55Chamchil?
03:57Oh, God, look at the time.
04:00Is this like a dressy thing that you're going to?
04:03Or does one...
04:15Hi.
04:18I hope you got my birthday invite, and I hope it wasn't weird that I sent it to you.
04:24No.
04:26I'm glad you did.
04:28But I can't make it.
04:30Oh, I get it.
04:32I mean, everyone's busy.
04:34Yes, I actually decided to go visit my mum in LA for winter break.
04:38And meet up with a few music contacts.
04:40Thanks.
04:41That's great.
04:43I'm really excited for you.
04:47See you later.
04:55All right, mate.
04:56When are you going to fess up and tell her you want her back?
04:59I was going to, all right, at the fashion show.
05:03But then she got the email from NYU.
05:07So?
05:08So now it doesn't matter.
05:10Her future's mapped out, literally.
05:13She's happy.
05:15And I'm not about to ruin her.
05:27I think a congratulations are in order, don't you?
05:31Honestly, I didn't see this coming.
05:33Jiwon literally cried when she found out.
05:35Kitty, you told him?
05:38Well, I suppose you're disappointed.
05:40Why would I be?
05:41Alex, no, this is not...
05:43I'm happy that Jiwon's pregnant.
05:45Wait.
05:46What?
05:49Okay.
05:51I've been seeing Miss Ahn since the summer.
05:54We're in love.
05:56And I'm going to be your dad.
06:00You two are practically kids yourselves.
06:02We're older than you were.
06:05Sorry, I didn't mean that...
06:07I'm going to let you two talk.
06:13Look, I don't know if I'm ready.
06:16But what I do know is that I'm going to be there.
06:24I hope you know.
06:26If I'd had any idea about you,
06:29I would have dropped everything to be in your life.
06:32Everything.
06:34Everything.
06:36I'm glad you get this chance.
06:39To be the father I wasn't.
06:43Be there for all the important firsts.
06:46Well, I was hoping that...
06:49Maybe we could share those firsts together.
06:53Arábo-ji.
07:00Father, are you?
07:09Good.
07:09Come on.
07:11Hope you guys aren't doing this.
07:18I'll begin.
07:19What?
07:22customer.
07:22Why?
07:23I didn't even give you a mistake.
07:27Mm-hmm.
07:29Deon, I'm really grateful for you to help you with the Jindu.
07:33I think I can go to college.
07:37I'd do anything for you, Eunice.
07:42Like, be my date for Kitty's surprise party?
07:48I thought you'd never ask.
07:53What's your turn?
07:54What's your turn?
07:56You know what?
07:57I'm sorry.
08:00You're a girl group.
08:03I was telling you about it, but you told me you were a girl.
08:09You were a girl group.
08:11You're a girl group.
08:13You were a girl group.
08:13I was telling you about your dad's father.
08:15I was telling you that you were a girl group.
08:20You said you were a girl group.
08:23I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
08:26I'm sorry.
08:27I'm sorry.
08:28But I've already started my work.
08:33I don't have to say anything about my father.
08:36I don't have to say anything about my career.
08:38I don't have to say anything.
08:53If you brush away my heartburn, I'll name our baby after you.
08:59I'm so glad we got the chance to celebrate before your big day.
09:02And I'm so glad that Professor Li took the news about the baby well.
09:06He's super happy for us.
09:09But teachers aren't allowed to date.
09:11So one of us might need to leave Kiss.
09:14Actually?
09:15If it comes to it, I'll quit.
09:22Right now, Jiwon and I are just focusing on what's important.
09:26The baby.
09:29Look at that poor woman over there.
09:31She's been rocking her baby this entire time and she hasn't had one bite of food.
09:35How am I supposed to do this?
09:37I don't know anything about being a mother.
09:39No, you're gonna be great.
09:42You know, you could talk to somebody who does know about being a mother.
09:46My halmoni would disown me if she knew.
09:49Professor Li is a tough cookie and he came around.
09:52Maybe Ima Halmoni will too.
09:54Please Jiwon, can I call her?
10:00If you like my peanut butter cookies, you'll love these.
10:03You don't have to keep bringing me treats.
10:05But thanks.
10:07Sorry, I have a lot going on right now.
10:11Are you working on your uni apps?
10:13Lee told me my chances aren't great now that I'm not a track star and my resume is basically blank.
10:18I wish there was something I could do.
10:22Well, maybe Kitty's party will be a good distraction.
10:24You're still coming, right?
10:26Yeah.
10:27I can't wait to see the look on her face.
10:47You've got this.
10:51I'm a father who will be my father.
10:55My mother, I was pregnant.
11:01What?
11:02Oh, my God, what's wrong with you?
11:13Oh, my God.
11:15Oh, my God.
11:18Oh, my God.
11:21Oh, my God.
11:26너, 내가 서울 가려고 그런 때 일하러 가는 줄 알았지.
11:31남자하고 애기 낳고 살려고 갔으면 그냥 북전에서 살면 되지.
11:36그냥 제가 알아서 제가 사랑하는 사람을 찾은 것 뿐이에요.
11:40그게 그렇게 잘못됐어요?
11:43그래, 이제 나 같은 거는 필요 없다는 소리네.
11:50할머니.
11:51Hey.
11:55It's the most important time to the grandmother.
11:59Yes?
12:01We are the captain matchmakers.
12:05Julie is a perfect couple.
12:09Alex is a good friend to the mom.
12:13Like her mother.
12:22Oh, I'm a good friend.
12:25Well, I'm a good friend.
12:30I love you.
12:38And we all have a family.
12:42I'm so happy to be here.
13:11I hate being in the dark, but I guess I'm pretty flattered that my friends are trying so hard to
13:17throw me off the scent.
13:18And it's actually working. Just hang in there a little longer, Kitty.
13:27Hello.
13:29Happy birthday, Kitty.
13:31Thank you. You're up early.
13:33My boss just emailed and she loves the book.
13:36Of course she does. Wait, that's amazing.
13:39So I have that dedication page, like, on lock, right?
13:43Because that would be a pretty sick birthday present.
13:46If I ever get published, I'm going to dedicate the first book to Mom, but you get the sequel.
13:52Yes. I've edged out Margo.
13:54I'm so proud of you, sister.
13:57Oh, um, that reminds me. Peter says hi.
14:01Wait, what?
14:02Peter and I have some news.
14:04What is it?
14:05Obviously there's a lot of things that we have to figure out, but we are going to make it work.
14:09Love is worth the risk, right?
14:12This is the best news ever.
14:14I love you so much.
14:15I hope you have an amazing birthday, and I'll talk to you soon.
14:18Love you too. Bye.
14:20Call it a matchmaker's intuition, but I knew Peter and Lara Jean would find their way back to each other.
14:26Even if they had to go the long way.
14:28Best gift ever.
14:31Okay, how about...
14:33Okay, pretty good. I think we could sell it a bit more if we added some chalk. Like, almost dead.
14:43I'm sorry that I couldn't be more chill about my surprise party.
14:46I just thought that if I knew what I was going into, I could let go of the one that
14:50I wrote in my sunset list.
14:53I mean, it's not like you haven't crossed off a bunch of other things on that list, right?
14:56Yeah, but none of them really went the way I imagined.
15:00Like, when I pictured talking to emo how money in Korean, I never thought I'd be hard-selling Alex as
15:05Jiwon's baby daddy.
15:07Or when I defined my relationship with Mino, I never thought we would do that just to break up.
15:18I know you're bummed, but tonight's not about him. It's about you.
15:25You're right.
15:27And thank you for whatever diabolical plan you have in store for me.
15:32Mwahaha.
15:32Mwahaha.
16:01Mwahaha.
16:02More like misdirections.
16:06Well, you gave us no choice.
16:10You came?
16:11We all decided the only way to surprise you is to keep you guessing.
16:19It's called a kidditini.
16:21My very own mocktail.
16:28Are these camellias?
16:30Mino brought them in.
16:37Now go change.
16:40My dress!
16:41Thank you!
16:43Thank you, everybody.
16:45This is amazing.
16:50Yo.
16:52Good job keeping Kitty in the dark.
16:55Right?
16:55That girl's like a human lie detector.
16:58Hey, so, are you still planning on interning for your dad next semester?
17:03Nah, I mean, don't get me wrong.
17:05I would look delectable in pinstripes, but I'd much rather just enjoy my last semester of high school.
17:11Why?
17:12I might need a favor.
17:14Want to take me for a ride?
17:17Do you got more than meets the eye?
17:21Well, baby, come and take a seat, need you to inspire me.
17:25I'm all in good than you want.
17:27Try.
17:29Ready, set, go.
17:31So hot like summertime, I can make you melt.
17:34One look, you're hypnotized, baby, I can tell.
17:38I'm running through your mind, so catch me if you can.
17:46X3, though they miss me, they can't kiss me.
17:48X3, though they miss me.
17:49I'm running through your eyes.
17:51X3, though, X3, though, X3, though, X3.
17:54Okay, time for gifts.
17:56Happy birthday, Kitty.
17:59A lock?
18:00Because we first met at Namsan Tower, and I hope our friendship lasts forever.
18:08I love it.
18:09Okay, mine.
18:13So I'm launching my new line with the dress you wore at the fashion show, and this label's
18:18going to be on it.
18:19Here are you.
18:20Yeah.
18:22Aw, cupcakes.
18:28It's to remember the first night we met, when you absolutely demolished that cupcake
18:33tower.
18:34And because you're the sweetest and messiest person I know.
18:38What's the point of these gifts to make me cry?
18:41Well, we each wanted to get you something to show how much you mean to us.
18:45Yeah, it was Minho's idea.
18:48That's so thoughtful.
18:50Thank you, guys.
19:13Damn.
19:15Well, future CEO, Jin, really works.
19:18Thanks.
19:19If only it were that easy.
19:23Well, do you have any plans Thursday, 4 p.m.?
19:27Can you stop?
19:28It's not a date.
19:29It's an interview with Marius' dad for an internship next semester.
19:34His company has a branch in Seoul.
19:37I don't want to owe Marius anything.
19:39You won't.
19:40Look, Marius really wants to make things right with you.
19:45And so do I.
19:47I've actually been reaching out to a few companies owned by former KISS alums, so I appreciate
19:53the help.
19:54I want to do this on my own.
19:56Of course.
19:58Jin, I only did this because I love you.
20:03And I know there's nothing I can say to prove it.
20:08But maybe I can show you.
20:11And I'll keep showing you, however long it takes for you to believe me.
20:16Part of me wants to make you grovel.
20:20Like, forever.
20:24But, I love you too.
20:27I want to trust you again.
20:30Especially since we only have one semester left together.
20:35Together?
20:37Together?
20:56What are you doing up here?
20:59Just thinking about how crazy this year has been.
21:03All the changes.
21:06It's been quite the journey.
21:10Well, I'm really impressed with how far you've come.
21:14And...
21:17I'm glad you're getting a second chance.
21:22I also really love this song.
21:29But I think it would be better if you danced with me.
21:34I would love to.
21:37But...
21:38But I love to talk to you today.
21:40I love to happen.
21:44I love to you too.
21:47I love to hear you.
21:50I love to talk to you so.
21:53I love to go.
21:54Bye-bye.
21:55And next time is in the studio.
21:58I love you too.
22:02Bye-bye.
22:05So, how does it feel to be a teen?
22:09I feel very wise.
22:13Well, would wise old Cubby like the dance?
22:31So let me get this straight.
22:33The themed gifts were your idea.
22:38And the camellias.
22:40And here I totally bought your lie about going to L.A. for winter break.
22:45Kitty, I wasn't lying.
22:47I did have a ticket booked to L.A.
22:50But I decided I'd rather be here.
22:57Can I ask you something?
23:00Yeah.
23:03When you applied Early Decision to NYU, how did you know it was the right path for you?
23:12Oh, um, well, I kind of fell in love with it this summer.
23:17And I really love my life in Seoul.
23:21But when we weren't together, it gave me a chance to really think about what I want for myself.
23:31And I realized it was NYU.
23:35So I decided to just go for it.
23:40Why?
23:43SOS 911 is fine, my dad.
23:46They want me to be their manager.
23:48Mino, that's huge.
23:51Yes, but I'd have to miss quite a bit of school next term.
23:58Well, are you going to take the job?
24:01Honestly, I'm not sure.
24:07What do you think I should do?
24:14Happy birthday, Connie.
24:20I'm not a person that lets go of control easily.
24:23I like taking the wheel, and I like knowing where I'm going.
24:26But I learned something on my 18th birthday.
24:28If you're surrounded by the people you love,
24:30you can always trust them to get you exactly where you need to go.
24:52As quickly as it came, the semester's over.
24:56I'm halfway to graduation.
24:58Halfway to goodbye.
24:59I had so many expectations coming into my senior year.
25:03I even wrote them all down in a list.
25:05I wanted it to be perfect.
25:08It wasn't.
25:09It was messy.
25:12Sometimes it hurt.
25:14But it was beautiful, and I wouldn't change a thing.
25:19Even the surprises.
25:21There may even be more to come, and I'm okay with that.
25:33Then you just had to remember that the dark won't last forever.
25:39I'm always yours.
25:41Onceנה.
25:52Sometimes it hurt your head.
25:55Sometimes it goes.
25:58I don't like it.
26:01Good-bye.
26:06It's wonderful.
26:09I'm not sure if you want to live.
26:12I want to live with the most proud of you.
26:16You can tell me that you're good.
26:22You can tell me what you want.
26:24It's not true.
26:24It's not true.
26:25It's true.
26:25I don't know what to do.
26:26I don't know what to do.
26:31I don't know what to do.
26:35I don't know what to do.
26:39I don't know what to do.
26:42I've been so excited for you.
26:44I want to live while I'm living.
26:46I don't know what to do.
26:53I'll go.
26:59FIGHT!
27:04Hey, is Kitty here?
27:06She already left for a break. You just missed her.
27:08But she's taking the subway to the airport so you can probably still catch her.
27:11Right, subway.
27:12Yeah.
27:13Which subway?
27:14Oh, God.
27:16What? I've never taken one before.
27:18Never?
27:18Here, take my T-card.
27:20It's the airport line out of Seoul Station.
27:23Welcome to how the other half lives.
27:26Great, thank you.
27:27Bye!
27:28See you next semester!
27:29Good luck!
27:31Good luck!
30:28I heard your song.
31:33I don't know what this means for Mino and me.
31:35I don't know what our future holds.
31:37I don't have a plan this time.
31:39But if I've learned anything this year,
31:41it's that sometimes it's just better to let go and see what happens.
31:55I like first class.
31:56I like first class.
31:58Technically this is business class.
32:01Don't get posh on me, Covey.
32:07It's going to be freezing in Portland, isn't it?
32:09We'll get you some warm clothes.
32:11I think you would look really cute in a flannel.
32:15Can't wait to see the sissy that made Kitty's own Covey.
32:19Yeah?
32:20Well, if you thought LJ was something, just wait till you meet my dad.
32:26Oh, I think I've lost my senses.
32:29Am I walking straight into a burning light?
32:33A burning light.
32:35Yeah.
32:36Cause I tossed into the covers.
32:39Tried to make a shape of you, but didn't quite work out alike.
32:45I'm trying to find you in a crowd again.
32:48You were there, then you were gone.
32:50Now I'm chasing all my steps to you, and oh my God.
32:54Oh, I think I'm losing my mind.
32:58Over here, over you, every night.
33:03Both hands holding up to the wire, impossible.
33:07Fire, over here, without you, every night.
33:13Sitting here with my head on fire.
33:16Ooh, oh, oh, oh, ooh.
33:23Sitting here with my head on fire.
33:26Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
33:32Sitting here with my head on fire
34:19Thank you
