I told him I don't know where that is.
Some clever guy.
Don't go anywhere.
Hey!
Where are you going, dad?
You shouldn't wander around alone.
Who are you?
Half wit, sly rat, stupid moron son.
I've come to take you to your home town.
Liar! You? My son?
Don't you think I'd recognize my own son?
Come clean.
You sold that watch, didn't you?
Comrade Grandpa, Comrade Grandpa.

You said somewhere's gotta be like that.
I'm gonna crazy.
I told you movie is not that easy.
You can't just cut in and make decisions.
I cannot carry out my job like that.
Your job is to take him to his home town.
You should've said this from the beginning.
He says this is not it.
He'll listen to you.
You can take care of it. I don't know anymore.
- I can't - Why can't you, now?
We go if he wants to go.
You're not making sense.
Fuck.
He is the father of our boss.
Do whatever you want. I don't know now.
You! Why you have so much to say about everything?
Watch it.
You never done a movie? Who's your agent?
A movie is made only
when actors follow the director's order
You must trust him.

- Why don't you hit again? - Come here!
- Hit me! - What are you, bitch!
They want to go home. They say they will leave unless they get paid now.
- I said I'll pay them. - We don't have the money.
We spent all of it to build the sets.
Hey!
Keep working,
I'll get the money
Shut your face, you think you are the director?
You are crazy acting like you are in charge.
Stop please. I'm begging you.
I am sorry.
This kid doesn't know how the world works.
He always uses trick
and live loosely in South Korea.
- You got it wrong. Please! - You rat!
Don't come if you don't want to.
This half wit, sly rat, moron.
We'll go without him.
Yes. Let's go.
Stupid son of a bitch, still hasn't come to your sense?
- You don't know anything! - Fuck. I can't take this anymore.
Here we are, everyone, this is Gaema Plateau.
We came here.
There seems to be a film shoot.
You can stay for a while and take pictures.
What the hell is that?
- What the hell... - Hey, hey!
Get lost!
This isn't your playground. Son of bitch!

Stupid sons of bitches.

Son of bitches!
Where are you going?
Where are you going? Huh?
Where? Take me with you.
- where are We going? - to get money.
Your boss said no.
Even if we get the money how can we find a studio?
That man.
Who?
Al... with a nail in the eye.
Al Pacino?
What does he do nowadays?
You can't just barge in demanding money, you know?
He doesn't pay even when we ask him.
He's certainly not going to pay when we do nothing.
He's always got cash.
can I ask you something?
What?
Grandpa Pear keeps talking about the watch.
What is it?
A watch? Ah that watch.
The story goes.
He learned to fix watches...
from a man with a wen.
While he was at it...
he also fell in love with his daughter Gab-Bun.
You half wit, sly rat, moron.
Grandpa Pear soon became skillful
and traveled around the country fixing clocks.
Unfortunately...
the war broken when he was working in Seoul.
That watch given by the dying teacher is
the only thing that connected him to his home.
He couldn't go back.
Since then, he married in South Korea and had a son.
But he couldn't adapt to his new life. It wasn�t a good influence to a kid.
He probably wore his father's watch
to the beach as a teenager and lost it.
He still takes us to the beach every year
and makes us look for the watch.
What is it?
What's going on?
How have you been, KIM?
What we have here? Seong-Chul?
What brings you here in such late hour.
Pay me back some money.
- What money? - Money you borrowed.
It is not due till a month later, you crazy son of a bitch.
Still, give me the money.
This is not what we agreed.
Agreement?
You told me to be straight and punctual.
Sorry I am late, boss.
What the hell, communists!
Agreement can be broken.
You, son of bitch!
What the fuck are you doing bitch!
You're mad. Insane!
I did wrong.
Put it in the bag.
What What?
Get the money.
You son of bitch! Come here.
Get the money quickly.
I'll explain it to the boss later, OK?
What agreement?
Nobody agreed for you to be born?
- Stupid motherfucker! - You son of bitch!
Now, run.
You said you have money to collect.
This is stealing not collecting.
You've got a big mouth.
I don't want to get shot.
They are following us. Throw the money.
They are getting on my nerves.
Go away before I count to three.
One two three.
Why are you doing this!
He is coming closer, towards us.
You want a face to face?
Brace yourselves, here I come.
That's Benz.
Youth knows no turning back. Drive on.
Are you nuts?
Risking your life for money?
If you are willing to put your life to it,
- you always win. - Life? Life?
The fucking life!
This shit is not worth my life.
I have lots of things yet to do.
I still have to go to Patagonia, make a movie.
Do you think I have to risk my life for it?
- this shit? - Yes, this shit!
You mean that?
Yeah! of course I mean it. What?
You're gonna send me away?
There's mountain, snow and water here.
Pick your favorite. Send me away!
You'd better stop. PARK Man-Soo.
I am not finished. Try and stop me.
Don't come here. You bitch!
Don't come here. Don't come near me.
- Let's go. - I am Not going there.

Scared of me? Come on!

- Let's stop and go. - No. I'm not going.
- You are asking to be sent away. - go head. where to? Just try.

Let's go.
Are you really OK?
You son of a bitch!
Come here!
- Come here - Stay away!
- Motherfucker - Don't come! Don't come!
OK, OK.
my bad.
What have I done wrong?
You certainly did nothing good.
To make a movie You put your life to it, you said!
Who put their life on the line for only a movie?
What?
It sure sounds good
but no movie is worth my life.
it is not worth it?
Where are you going? Wait for me!
Hold on! Wait up! Hey!
Wait up!
Hey! Wait up!
Call the police.
- Hurry up. - Yeah, Yeah.
Where are they headed?

We are working to make money, we are not going to work...
another minute if we don't get paid.
Listen, listen. Money, school both important.
But what about the human dignity?
By the way, is it true that Seong-Chul is a gangster?
Yes, I am scared of him.
They're coming!

You've got nothing better to do than fighting all day?
What happened to your face?
I am sorry about early. I was out of line.

After all I've gone through to get this money.
I don't want to take pictures.

Hop on.
