“How can being you be your weakness?”
Our own way of loving, even if it's not perfect
The screenplay for the film "Lovestruck in the City" has been published.

In the fall of 2024, the script for the film "Lovestruck in the City," which left a deep impression and resonance with audiences, will be published.
"Lovestruck in the City" has swept numerous award ceremonies, including the 45th Blue Dragon Film Awards (Best Music, Best New Actor), the 34th Buil Film Awards (Best Actress), the 25th Women in Film Korea Awards (Best Director, Best Acting), the 11th Korean Film Producers Association Awards (Best New Actor), and the 12th Marie Claire Film Festival (Best Actor), receiving rave reviews from critics and audiences alike.
The film depicts the special chronicle created by the honest and straightforward Jae-hee (Kim Go-eun) and Heung-soo (Noh Sang-hyun), who keeps a special secret, as they stay in each other's lives and pass by each other for 13 years.

This script collection brings the moments from the screen back to life in print.
The slightly more intimate emotions of Jae-hee and Heung-soo contained in the original script before filming, and the raw breathing that may have been lost during the editing process, are all intact in writer Kim Na-deul's screenplay.
In addition to the original 'screenplay', the 'storyboard' that allows you to preview the composition and movement of key scenes, in-depth conversations with writer Kim Na-deul, director Lee Eun-hee, who won the Best Director Award at the Women in Film Korea Awards, and planning producers, high-definition on-site 'still cuts' with the perspective of a still writer, and the sensuous design of graphic design studio 'Front Door' highlight the charm of the 'original form' where all moments of the movie began, adding to the reasons to own this book.

As the line goes, "How can being you be your weakness?", the story of two people who became each other's only refuge in the midst of the world's prejudice will remain as a warm comfort to both movie fans and creators, as if they were going through their 20s together, and as a special record worth keeping.

“Whether it was long or short,
Whether you stayed or passed by,
There are many scenes and lines borrowed from all the people who raised me.
So I think it will remain as a particularly enjoyable and heartbreaking movie.
Life doesn't always go as planned, and making a living is always a bit of a struggle.
So we,
Like Jaehee and Heungsoo
I hope we can always be affectionate and affectionate towards each other.
“We hope our films will remain your long-time friends.”

#20.
Itaewon, Soju House, Saebyeok
Inside the store, clubbers in fancy attire are bustling about.
Jaehee and Heungsoo are sitting across from each other, with a bowl of oden soup that has just thickened.
Jaehee, who had been staring into space with his chin resting on his hand, chuckles.
Jaehee, how did you learn to act so prickly?
What is Hungsoo saying?
Jaehee, you did that back then.
(Imitating) Why, do you think you caught my weakness?
Heungsoo (smiling) When did I?
Jaehee Jang Heung-soo.
Excitement?
Jaehee, how can being you be your weakness?
Heungsoo stares at Jaehee quietly.
Jaehee takes a sip of soju with a faint smile.
