Mom!
Hello?
Hey Dong-wan. Still at the arcade?
No, I didn't sleep.
I said I didn't sleep.
I didn't sleep!
How dare you say that I'm crazy?
I was talking about my friend, not you.
Why can't I joke around, damn it?
Damn it?
Or you some thug? Your parents raised you that way?
It just shows that bad students come from bad families!
Give me your phone.
Teacher!
What is it?
My mom just called. She's out front waiting for me.
You see, I told her a pervert has been following me.
What time is it?
Attention!
Bow!
Good-bye, ma'am!
You two come with me.
Shit, this is aggravating.
Kim Ki-tae, you son of a bitch.
Talk.
After hanging out with us, now you dump us?
Think our gang is shit? You little dickhead.
Why? Is it too tough? Huh?
Look straight.
What soul is there that hasn't been hurt by their parents, shithead?
Every night at eleven,
my friends are waiting for me in front of the library.
Dong-wan comes from the arcade,
and Chang-sub comes after his dance lessons.
Since it's too early to split up,
we eat ramen noodles at the store and then go home.
People probably don't know.
That high school seniors are no different from salary men.
Lunch, getting off of work, and then after-hour drinks.
Like the lack of hard-working salary men,
most high school seniors don't study much either.
There are so many ballet teachers.
It's tough to make a living.
Your sister took your cell, huh?
She always uses it.
Yeah, I guess. I don't need it.
You let her get away with it?
Hey, he's looking again. He lives on your floor, huh?
Yeah, apartment 805.
Hey, stop looking. You'll break the window.
What's so good about her?
She's pretty.
And something's special about her.
Then ask her out.
Do it to commemorate the exam.
Shut up, idiot.
What if I get rejected?
I'll be so humiliated I'd have to move.
Hey, she's coming.
- Min-jae, she's coming. - Look, he's embarrassed.
Oh jeez, are you okay?
Great ballet move!
- I bet it hurt. - Sorry, kids.
Ouch, it hurts.
Hey, lady!
This always happens. Nothing works out for me.
If Soo-jin even happens to marry another guy later,
I'd probably live in regret.
Flying Boys
I forgot to wake up Soo-in.
Did you wake up your brother?
Mom, you're really incredible.
Today's the college entrance exam.
Min-jae, your father's coming.
- Here's your lunch. - Min-jae.
- Do you have your exam ticket? - Yes.
Your aunt fixed your lunch early this morning and came,
so do well on the exam.
That's my dad.
My dad's a captain of a famous airlines.
Half the year he's working in the skies.
The other half, he's sleeping in the covers.
My mother passed away.
Five minutes left.
Fill in the remaining blanks.
It's snowing!
Everyone turn your heads back to the test!
The snow comes again, but not this test.
- Thanks for the drinks. - Drink up.
Chang-sub, when will you teach me how to breakdance?
Forget about it and just go study.
Thank you.
Seeing you like that makes you look like some good student.
Screw it.
Who cares if I have to take it again next year.
Do whatever you like.
Why'd you take the exam if you're not going to college?
I wanted to leave a memory behind.
Don't like it?
Well, Kim Ki-tae in our class even took the exam.
Do thugs like him want to go to college now?
Even if he takes it, he's nothing.
Plus, he's not in that gang anymore.
Hey, check them out.
The exam is all over, so they dress up like that already.
How cute.
Chang-sub, let's pick them up.
You're a really funny bitch. Hey bitch.
Didn't you say you wanted to go screw in a video room?
Stop lying, you crazy bitch.
You're the one who wanted to have sex there.
- I did? - Then, I did?
Hey bitches, that's enough!
- Excuse me! - What?
- Take your bags and fight. - Don't butt in.
Did all of you fucking eat trash to talk so dirty?
- Hey, asshole. - My purse is wet!
Hurry and spit it out.
Ahn Hyung-mee!
Hwangbo Soo-jin, I like you.
- What did you say? - I said I love you.
I want you to know how I feel.
I know you're popular.
Ahn Hyung-mee, are you a lesbian?
What if I am?
Oh my goodness.
So you're saying you want to go out with me?
Who cares what people are if they like each other?
Okay, that's your problem so I won't say anything.
Anyway, I'm flattered that you like me.
But wouldn't it be weird if we were to suddenly get close?
To tell you the truth, I didn't know until just now
that you were even in my class.
Like you said, I'll just know how you feel, okay?
Crazy bitches.
You should've said that to their face.
What are you going to tell your dad?
- When's his flight over? - In three days.
It's okay.
My dad couldn't even tell that I had a broken nose.
Hey, what if we jerk off to some pornos till then?
Jerk yourself off.
Lee Chang-sub, want me to tickle your dick?
Take it off.
Ouch, it hurts.
Hey! My dad left his car keys!
Our little Min-jae can drive now. So cute.
Stop!
I feel awesome! You all suck!
Don't let go!
Come back in! Roll up the window.
Get back inside!
Fucking lunatic.
Be careful. You don't have a license.
No problemo!
Hey, don't worry.
When you go to jail, I'll send you a lot of goodies.
Tell the truth. You like getting hit, don't you?
Mom, we'll be happy forever.
Mother, I'll take good care of my hubby.
- Come to the arcade. - Okay.
- Hurry and park. - I will.
Does it really have that effect?
Yes!
Of course! It's the best for a diet!
Didn't you read it in the health magazine?
I'll have new students in no time.
- Then I'll promote it. - Okay.
What the hell?
Oh my goodness!
- Oh no. - No.
Ma'am, it wasn't me!
What? I know!
But I still need to report it.
- Please listen to me. - What's wrong with you?
Did you drink?
- A high school student? - Yes.
- With no driver's license? - Yes.
- Drinking and driving? - Yes.
Please have mercy.
- Plan to graduate from high school? - Of course.
I must've gone crazy after the exam. My head hurts from studying.
Give me your student ID and phone number. I'll need your info.
Here it is.
I don't lie.
So can't you keep it a secret?
You can leave now.
I called the family. It's a matter of time now.
- Did he die? - Yes.
He was already dead when you reported it.
I'm here for Kim Kyung-soo. I got a phone call.
Any other adult came?
We need an adult here.
I'm his son. There's no other adult at home.
Really?
- Follow me. - What's going on?
What's wrong?
He's in my class.
Hello.
We have a new course. It's ballet.
Look here. Why are there a few students?
There was more in that jazz dance before.
Sir, people view ballet to be very professional, and...
Since the kids' classes are full, we'll let people enroll freely,
and begin this class.
I made some soup and dishes for you, and put them in the fridge.
But why are you eating junk food?
Want the cucumber dish I made for you?
That's okay.
We're out of eggs.
This is your dad's underwear, huh?
It's mine! And don't touch my underwear.
You cute boy.
How tall are you now? You're taller than your dad, huh?
Now you're all grown up.
And you'll be in college soon.
You're all ready to even get married.
Tell dad to get married instead!
I'm going to the army.
You cute little brat.
Min-jae, your Auntie has to go.
Min-jae, just soak the dishes in water.
I'll wash them later, okay?
This tastes terrible.
I have to go to college if I wanna get married.
If I screw up, I might not get married.
But I do want to get married.
Min-jae!
- Wake up. - Go away!
Wake up!
You reek of alcohol, you lunatic.
Remember our date Saturday? Are you ready?
Don't ask.
I'm heading out.
- Where are you going? - I've got dance practice.
Let's go together after class.
Focus! Listen carefully.
Joon-suk, what's up for Saturday?
In front of Galleria at one. Hot girls from Eunsung High are coming.
This time it's for real.
See, you bastards?
Hey, I'm wearing my leatherjacket that day, okay?
No fake leather, either.
- Min-jae, forget about Hwangbo. - Crazy bastard!
My boy, you should start a new life.
Hello?
Having a great time? Think this class is a trash can?
Yes.
What?
She's going too far. How much does she want?
She didn't say how much, but I think she wants money.
She's got something up her sleeve.
You're coming, right?
- Trust us, my boy. - Who are you?
Hey! Hey!
I saw tons of cons like her. Don't be scared.
What's wrong? Don't trust that I'll help?
You're that boy at the hospital, right?
- Let me see. - No.
Come on!
- Let me see it for a sec! - Let go!
I can't tell which floor it is.
You wanna see a dead person's stuff, you freak?
I�m just curious.
What are you kids doing there?
Do you know where Kim Ki-tae lives?
I don't think anyone's home.
He may be at the hospital with his brother.
I said you can't see it!
It's no big deal. He only has 50,000 won in his account.
What do you want?
The police said you can't be reached.
So?
They asked me to bring your dad's stuff.
You son of a bitch!
Let go! That fucking asshole!
Why'd you just stand there?
Ballet Lessons Available
Mother.
This sucks.
We always eat ox-tail soup.
Soo-jin, wanna go to the salon?
You must've found a coupon.
Mom, I wanna go instead. Give it to me.
Goodness, look at your posture.
Your clothes won't even look good on you.
Mom, clean the fridge while you're here.
Everything's rotten.
You need help. You need to look like a real girl.
Take ballet classes.
As a gift for finishing the exam, I signed you up.
Buy something again on the home shopping channel?
It's a three-month course. And it'll fix your posture.
All pretty girls with nice figures do this these days.
Okay, okay. I'll do it.
But mom, don't you want me to apply for college next month?
Who wants you to go all the way to Jeju Island for school?
People will think you're a bad student.
Think everything works out as you planned?
You have to learn ballet!
I told you I'll do it. But mom...
Hi, my son. Where are you?
Of course, it is. All military service is hard.
Hurry and come eat.
Your brother's almost here. Pour him some soup.
What do you...
What the hell do you want?
What's this?
Fried dumplings.
Have a nice meal, teacher.
Thank you.
The noodles here are delicious! Have some.
Look here, ma'am.
You seem to think we can be played,
but his old man knew he took out the car that day.
Go home and eat, idiot.
50,000 won from each of you.
Since there's three of you, 150,000 won.
Don't give it to her.
He should almost be here.
Oh, hello.
Wow! You weren't kidding!
I couldn't believe it when I heard.
Pleased to meet you.
So I heard you liked ballet since you were little.
I'll sign all of you up.
Where there's a will, there's a way. I know you'll all succeed.
- Of course! - Trust me.
But if you quit mid-way,
you know it's not my fault if you get ratted on, right?
Of course.
You can also perform at the community festival in February.
Mr. Kim, shall we go?
- Okay, let's go. - Bye.
Ballet?
Perform? Who will?
Chang-sub...
Eat this.
Your aunt made you your favorite lotus root dish.
Dad, I wanna learn English at a language institute.
Really? How much is it?
150,000 won with a discount.
It's never a waste of money to learn English.
The more you study the more you'll learn.
When will your exam scores come out?
It won't be for a while.
These days, big companies retire people early.
So a technical job or having some license is the best.
Is Hankuk Aviation too hard to get into?
Yes.
I should've applied you to the Air Force Academy.
Too late now.
While you're at it, get your driver's license.
Get a real license instead of playing those games.
That game's no use in helping you drive.
Think you'll drive well?
Hey, why is she acting like some princess?
Jina sleeps with her teddy bear, so I always need to be loved.
- You're going to sleep? - Nope.
Jina is thirsty.
I heard you're the best dancer at your school.
Everybody's good.
I've always envied people who could dance well.
I'm a terrible dancer. I'm a total stiff.
Are you proud of that?
Be nice.
Where will you all go for college? Did you pick your major?
Hey. Think you can get in that easily?
So-young and I wanna be teachers.
Jina picked fashion, and Soo-jin's going to Jeju University to be a vet.
Why?
You don't like Seoul?
Why out in Jeju?
I couldn't get into vet school at Seoul National University,
so I might as well go to the second best.
But why all the way to Jeju?
I mean, just that the island's so far away.
You'll see a lot of honeymooners.
You see, Soo-jin's very popular in our class, and she's good at everything.
Is that so? Like what?
Soo-jin's really strong.
And last Valentine's Day,
she got a lot of chocolate from the girls at school.
That's not all. She knows a lot of curse words.
They're so dirty.
She also eats her lunch really fast.
She even caught a roach with her bare hands.
And she never loses to the teacher.
Soo-jin's so cool.
- Did you like your partner? - Think I would, idiot?
- I'm sorry, sir. - Who taught him how to drive?
- I'll pay for the damages, sir. - Bring the owner!
What a sorry sight.
Let's go.
Kang Min-jae!
- What are you doing here? - Hey.
It would've been nice if I was your partner for the date.
Soo-jin.
I love you.
What's going on? Soo-jin, look out!
This is so humiliating.
You see, I can't baby sit you.
You're too young. You know that, right?
Plus, I'm leaving for Jeju Island.
Very far away.
No, Soo-jin.
Soo-jin, I've liked you since middle school.
Soo-jin!
Where am I?
Number 27, Kang Min-jae.
Guys like you who are all grown up but don't have any direction,
will all be sent to the army by the Education Ministry.
- Congratulations. - Teacher.
Min-jae, congratulations!
I'm disappointed in you!
I thought you've matured.
You're nothing but a rotten son.
Give me the car keys, boy!
Dream about your mom again?
Give me a cigarette.
Why'd you open the window? It's cold.
Needed some air to do some thinking.
Anyway, what'll you do if Soo-jin goes to Jeju?
Don't ask.
Chang-sub, why does my life suck?
You're lucky. You know what you want to do.
Hey, there's two decent girls.
Hey, wasn't that the yogurt lady in front of Kim Ki-tae's house?
We shouldn't have come.
Where the hell's Chang-sub?
It's the guy from the Chinese restaurant.
Isn't that the video store guy?
How about we introduce ourselves?
I'll go first.
Ever since our community center opened,
I took every class there was,
So you could look at me as the local cultural event leader.
I feel like I've seen you before.
What a loser.
Be honest.
You came here because of the pretty instructor, huh?
Are you blind?
Mister, we've been specially invited to this class.
By special invite!
Hello, instructor!
Oh, hello.
You hit it big.
Didn't you two get your training outfit?
- How can we wear this? - How can we wear this?
What is this?
This hurts like hell.
There's only a string in front.
The front's totally exposed.
Hey, do we tie it to the left or the right?
I tied it in the middle.
- It fucking hurts. - Are you okay?
I'm gonna kill Chang-sub if he doesn't come.
Excuse me.
Oh boy!
I'm very pleased to meet you all.
Since today's our first class,
we will learn the basic moves.
- Don't touch me. - This is all your fault.
Think I asked for this?
Your bottom.
Don't you have a brain? Are you a pervert?
- You have it on backwards. - It hurts.
See this triangular, pocket-looking thing?
The front goes like this.
Like this!
What about the back?
This supporter is made so that dancers won't have any panty lines.
So there's nothing for the rear.
This string... Come here.
- The string goes around... - I got it!
Hey, wait for me.
Lower your left shoulder.
Now, Passe.
Front, Devant.
A la Second.
Plie and then two, Arabesque.
Now, from the heels.
Wanna die?
- Why are you looking? - 'Cuz she's hot.
Plie!
Pas de Bourree.
Now, Arabesque.
- You got us into this. - Screw you, you bastard.
How long do we stay like this?
- Raise your thigh. - Wait!
I'll do it on my own, okay?
- Straighten your shoulders. - Wait...
If you do this, it'll make things harder.
- What are you doing? - Watch it!
You put me in these weird panties.
Don't touch my body. Never.
Arabesque!
Teacher, my feelings are getting weirder.
Why do ballet dancers wear this?
My anus is killing me.
Min-jae.
What are you doing? Laundry?
It's nothing.
Hey, don't let your aunt catch you masturbate.
You rascal.
Jina loves sweet red-bean soup. Jina wants it now.
Why isn't Miss Hwangbo here?
Her lover could be leaving soon to eat red-bean soup.
I want red-bean soup, too.
- Sweet red-bean soup. - Chang-sub.
I saw Kim Ki-tae this morning.
He's working at the convenient store.
Is he some greedy pig?
How many jobs is he working?
He's an orphan now, huh?
Anyway, he's vicious, man.
When he quit that gang, he got trampled on a few times. Did not know?
Hey, look over there.
Ever seen girls do things alone?
They always go in pairs.
The frog position.
Keep it up even if it hurts.
If you can't do this, you can't learn ballet.
Demi plie. Suck in your belly.
You're so flexible.
Grand plie. Put in your buttocks.
Demi plie.
Lower your shoulders. Turn it out.
Teacher, please don't.
Grand plie.
Lower your legs more.
Spread wider.
It's okay. It's okay.
Excuse me, is it necessary to push ourselves like this?
We're not doing this to be experts.
She's right.
I won't lose weight like this.
Yeah, it's got no effect.
I told you we should've learned aerobics.
It's never easy! Just do what she tells you.
Plie.
- I gave a traffic ticket today. - Good boy.
Soo-jin, don't think it's easy living alone.
You know how hard it is?
Do you have to go to Jeju?
When it comes down to it, your mom and I want you
to just study comfortably at home until you get married.
That's right.
She doesn't know what struggle is. Struggle!
Dad, let her go.
Whether she raises a pony
or rides one down there, let her struggle.
Hyun-sung, come and eat!
- Yeah, come eat with us. - Yeah, join us.
No, I don't want to intrude. I'll eat later.
- Suit yourself. - Okay, then.
Dad, if Soo-jin goes to Jeju I can have the room all to myself?
Shut up. Who said she's going?
Why do you always pick on me?
Mom, you see.
If I go to college like this, nothing will change at all.
Dad, did I ever complain about anything?
This is the first time I asked for something.
You lost a lot of weight.
I've been struggling, that's why.
Mrs. Yang.
All the older ladies here switched over to the aerobics class.
Yes, I know.
This is frustrating.
There's been a lot of complaints.
This isn't some professional course.
You're supposed to match your students' level.
And what's wrong with our level?
That's not what I meant. This is a hobby class.
Those ladies quit because they weren't losing weight.
What did I tell you. It sucks here.
I told you we shouldn't have come.
That yogurt-selling lady. The psycho.
She's not here today.
That's what I'm saying.
The cops are still questioning her.
Two of her kids died.
Did they die? Or were they killed?
Mister, are you crazy? You some thug?
Who are you to insult someone who you even don't know!
Do you know what her life is like? Do you?
"The Lonely Sun" Video Rental
During the financial crisis, her husband
fed the whole family sleeping pills, and gassed the house.
Everyone died. Except for her.
Afterwards, she worked to keep herself busy.
But after losing her precious kids all at once,
and being investigated by the police for a few months,
she's gotten a little weird.
I see.
That lady is really odd.
She'd steal people's mail.
She's not that kind of person.
She's usually a kind lady.
Last year, we learned jazz dance together.
Wow, you learned jazz dance, too?
Mr. Doh-il and I suggested we have a ballet class.
- So that's why we're here. - Hey, let's go.
I was so excited about learning a classic dance.
But what can we do? Students are dropping out.
It's no big deal.
Since Chang-sub and Jong-suk got some great talent
it gives me hope as a ballerina.
I can't come starting next week.
I think I'll be picked up to be a back-up dancer for a new hot singer.
- Really? Congratulations. - That's awesome.
Is that so?
Then how many of us are left now?
Soo-jin, Jina is cold.
Yeah, it is.
- Seung-un didn't come? - She's got an ancestral rite today.
Ancestral rite? What a lie.
She didn't come because Chang-sub isn't here.
Anyway, why'd Joon-seok tell us to meet here?
It's stupid.
Hey, why's the Ninja Turtle here?
To see you, idiot.
I'm the loner today.
Min-jae, Jina wants to drink hot chocolate.
Okay, shall we take our Jina for some hot chocolate?
It's Dong-wan's treat.
What a nice day for hot chocolate.
Do you like the ballet class?
Think I would? My mom made me take it.
I'm quitting after I go to college.
Mommy!
Kelly, stop.
I'm sorry.
Why are you laughing?
Oh, nothing.
- Hey, it's really cute. - Kelly, let's go.
Soo-jin, I got the tickets.
Thanks, Joon-seok.
Is it too cold to ride on the boat?
This might help.
It's warm.
I have to go.
Why? What about the boat ride?
I forgot about the ancestral rite today.
You have one, too?
See you later.
Hey!
Kang Min-jae!
Where's Min-jae going?
He said he has an ancestral rite today.
But his mom's ancestral rite isn't today.
Apartment 805.
Have some.
I'm okay.
Eat it when I'm offering.
There won't be any when you really want one.
Here, have a drink.
Bottoms up.
See? Delicious, huh?
Do you know how wonderful it is to be young?
Don't go around frowning that handsome face of yours.
Did "Save the Green Planet" come in?
Yes, it did. But it just got rented out.
To this handsome young boy here.
Eighth floor.
- Want to watch this with me? - You lied about that rite, huh?
Don't want any coke?
I also have coffee and citron tea.
I can make it right away.
I'm okay.
There's plenty here.
Try it.
The place is messy, huh?
Looks like my aunt didn't come today.
There should always be a woman in the house, huh?
You should've started it without me.
Want some?
I have to go.
But it's not over yet.
Lend it to me later.
Don't go.
I'm sorry.
You have something on your face.
It's a tangerine-peel.
Your breath smells.
It smells like tangerine.
It's not coming off.
Just raise it up.
Sorry.
You see...
I love you.
Who is it?
Soo-jin.
You've gone on a lot of dates, huh?
Dates?
Well...
When did you first sleep with a girl?
Soo-jin, so you're in love.
What do guys think after they do it?
Hi, dad.
What are you doing?
I rented a movie.
Hey, go do it in your room when you got the urge.
And don't overdo it.
I see you've bought a lot.
Good night.
Clumsy kid.
Oh boy.
Strange kid.
He's got some weird tastes.
Your dad graduated from Hankuk Aviation Academy, right?
Yes, sir.
Wouldn't it have been great if you had went there?
Going with your dad to alumni meetings.
Yes, I guess.
Got any other place you wanna go to?
Hankuk Aviation is out, and Hanyung University is possible.
But I can't guarantee it.
Talk it over with your dad and decide.
How about the veterinary school at Jeju University?
No chance.
Tell Number 28, Han Chul-jin, to come in.
Go ahead and eat.
Give me a pack of cigarettes.
Why? I can't have one?
Hurry and take it. If I get caught, I'm fired.
Like the parking lot?
You saw me.
Who's he?
My brother. His name's Ki-chul.
Didn't I tell you not to eat junk food?
He's done eating.
Ki-chul, put on your scarf.
It's cold outside. Put on your mask, too.
Hello.
Let's go.
- Thank you. - Thank you, my butt.
Soo-jin!
Hey.
You look pretty.
What are you doing later?
- Why? - Well...
Let's talk later.
Min-jae!
Awesome! You finally did it!
Let's go somewhere afterwards.
Why? You wanna rent another video?
What's with him?
Who knows. You know how weird he is.
- Hey, what's going on? - It's nothing.
What's wrong?
Hey, Min-jae!
Talk to me.
What's with you?
Step away.
What did you mean by that?
You regret what we did?
Think I'm not good for you?
You think I'm nothing?
Soo-jin!
Have you lost your mind? What's wrong with you?
- I don't know what... - Let go!
Min-jae, that's enough.
What? So what?
Oh, ballet?
Fuck it! I'm through!
Whether you report me or not, I don't care!
I'm not doing this shit anymore! Got it?
- Hey, you! - What?
What's with you?
- What about me? - Min-jae, stop.
That little bastard.
Who are you? What do you want?
What are you doing?
You should stay at home or study for the test again.
Since you hang out here, no wonder your scores are so low, you rotten punk.
You punk!
I said stop it!
Then let's go. I said let's go.
Okay, let's go.
If you put stockings on my boy again for this crap,
I'll run you out of this neighborhood, got it?
Miss Hwangbo.
You're a snot.
Go inside, boy.
Who do you think you are?
You've totally lost your mind, boy.
Just because I'm not around,
are you gonna make everyone think we're some wacko family?
This is so humiliating.
And what's this? What is this?
Did you bring some girl home?
Where'd you learn to do this kind of stuff?
Where's the stick? Where is it?
If you do this one more time, I'm kicking you out of this house.
Got it!
I'm sorry. I'll never do it again.
Your exam scores came out, right?
Bring it here.
