A Hundred Memories episodes 1 & 2 recap
The first episode of A Hundred Memories kicks off with Go Young-rye, who is juggling her job. One day, the overcrowded bus leaves without her, but a young woman waving a scarf captures the driver’s attention.
Onboard, a passenger blames Young-rye, noting that only the last-row woman’s scarf made the driver stop. Mesmerized by the woman’s beauty, Young-rye offers to pay her fare, but she refuses and tips her instead. She’s Seo Jong-hee, a new bus attendant with no experience.

Meanwhile, Han Jae-pil, an aspiring boxer, faces his own struggles. His father mocks his scores and, upon discovering Jae-pil’s boxing win, hits him with a billiard stick. Despite this, his passion for boxing remains. Back at the dorm, Young-rye’s roommate, a bully, gets annoyed by discussion.
Jong-hee becomes the target of the seniors’ harassment, while Young-rye and Jong-hee bond over English books, discovering they’re the same age. The next morning, Young-rye is paired with Jong-hee as a trainee. When a student tries to skip fare, Young-rye chases him through narrow alleys, only to be saved by Jae-pil. This is a moment that hints at her growing feelings for him.
Later, Young-rye joins Jong-hee in buying food for the seniors. At home, her family sees her only as a financial supporter, ignoring her dreams. The next day, the girls wake up with upset stomachs, and Jong-hee is blamed. Young-rye discovers it was actually Sook-ja, another attendant, who secretly added cold medicine to the food for profit.
Young-rye proves it by taking the medicine herself, and Jong-hee confronts the bully roommate, warning her to stop harassing juniors. That evening, Jong-hee and Young-rye share life stories over ramen. Meanwhile, a mysterious man is shown desperately searching for Jong-hee. The episode closes with the girls at a movie theater where Jae-pil, forehead bleeding, signals them to stay quiet. Young-rye recognizes him, with her heart racing.

Episode 2 starts with Jae-pil standing in front of Young-rye and Jong-hee after a scuffle at the multiplex. Jong-hee lightens the mood with humor, but later Jae-pil lands in trouble with the police after another fight. His father bails him out, showing the privileges of his background.
Meanwhile, Young-rye can’t stop thinking about Jae-pil. The only clue he leaves behind is a hand-embroidered handkerchief. When Jong-hee notices, Young-rye admits it belongs to a boy but keeps her developing feelings a secret. Jae-pil’s story continues as he witnesses his classmate being mistreated by Deok-gu.
He surprises everyone by standing up to his father and urging forgiveness, even if it costs him two tutoring sessions. Young-rye’s search for Jae-pil leads her to a nightclub called “Giant,” where she narrowly avoids a police raid. Feeling embarrassed, she later suggests taking night classes with Jong-hee, who happily agrees.
Family troubles hit when Young-rye’s mother loses her food cart. Jong-hee steps in with unexpected generosity, lending money. The episode wraps with a blind date in a crowded setting, where both women are in uniforms. Jae-pil appears among a group of men, glancing between Young-rye and Jong-hee, hinting at a budding love triangle and setting up a climactic finish.
