Do You Like Spring Bear? (2003)

A connected series of love notes scribbled in library art books convinces gawky grocery store clerk Hyun-chae that a mystery man – known only as ‘Vincent’ – is pursuing a relationship with her. Meanwhile, an infatuated pal from her high-school days – shy, quirky subway driver Dong-ha – relocated to Seoul to ACTUALLY pursue a relationship with her, which she rejects in favor of the ersatz paper chase provided by her mystery man, going so far as to pawn Dong-ha off on her friend at one point.
