Hey.
Don't nudge me with your toe. It's disgusting.
Hey!
What do you want?
I want to do this.
Are you some kind of old lady? Why are you watching soaps?
You watch them, too. I need my rest.
What for? You don't do anything.
What are you going to do with your life?
You gave up boxing. That was your only passion!
Where's that Junko!
Does she know what time it is?
What if she doesn't come home?
Don't worry about her.
Worry about yourself!
I can't do that.
We've been living together for 2 months.
We're like family.
Besides, what if her parents knew about this?
Why should you worry about her parents?
Worry about yourself if you have that kind of time.
Where are you going?
Hello?
Dad. It's me.
Junko! How've you been?
I made lots of friends.
Everyone's been very sweet.
I knew that would happen. You're such a popular girl.
Are you still out? It's getting late.
You should go home.
The call's going to end soon. I'll call you again, dad.
Call me often, honey. Remember, you can do it!
Take care, dad. I'll call you again.
What are you doing here?
He must have left with a girl.
They said it was a friend.
Yeah, a girlfriend.
That's why they let him go.
So he can be with her.
They said it was a friend!
Fine. I'm sorry.
Akai ito.
It means red string. It connects me to my soulmate.
I wanted to see whether Woo-sung was my akai ito.
Here.
This is the best thing for a broken heart.
Don't cry. I can't bear it when girls cry.
Anyway, don't.
Don't cry.
Would you like me to get that star for you?
Watch closely.
Watch me get that star!
- Tadaa! - Wow!
Cheers.
Cheers!
Wow!
Dummy!
Why are you both reaching for the same dish?
How did you both catch a cold?
It's just a cold! Anyone can catch it.
Next time, watch your timing! Don't sneeze along with me.
Here's some fish broth. It'll be good for you.
Did you force Junko to drink all that soju?
I didn't force her to do anything.
What's wrong with this broth? It's too salty.
Where do you think you're going?
They're all getting suspicious.
They're usually so stupid. Why can't they stay that way?
What's wrong?
You said you're feeling low.
I'm the one who's depressed.
Junko, there are two guys with the same name.
Did you know that?
Something's wrong with Junk-man.
Stop!
I told you not to mention him in front of me.
Can we get some pork sausages?
With extra pork liver?
Don't be mad...
What is it?
This is good. Try it.
I just remembered something. I have to go.
Wait! Can we finish this first?
It's too spicy. Let's just go.
These sausages aren't spicy. I already paid for them.
- What's wrong? - Please...
That rotten bastard! How can he do this to his wife?
He's leaving her for another woman?
What are you muttering to yourself?
Mr. HEO? What is love?
Love...
That's a hard question.
Does love really conquer all?
Of course. Nothing should stand in the way of love.
So nothing should stand as a problem?
Of course. You can't fight love when it comes to you.
Just look at those two!
Are you sure about that? What if it involves Junk-man?
Of course!
Wait. What did you say?
You idiot! I didn't raise you to become a pervert!
How can you?
Please! You can talk it out!
How can you do this to me?
She's your mother's age! You should be ashamed!
I'm the one who should be seeing a woman like her, not you!
Get over here!
What are you talking about?
How far did it go?
What have you done with her?
I have no idea what you're saying!
How dare you lie to my face?
You bastard!
Soon-ja... What should I do?
I'm going to kill him!
- Mr. HEO! No! - Calm down!
Stop there!
Junk-man!
This is all your fault.
I'm sorry.
Forget it. Just leave.
I'm really sorry.
It's no use talking to you.
How could you think that?
What?
It's just a little milk. It's not a big deal.
Aren't you a little too young to be smoking in public?
Oh, sorry. Son of bitch.
So you want to look good in front of your girl, is that it?
Cigarettes were made to be smoked in public.
Junk-man.
You look like you've got some fight in you.
Go home.
Junk-man...
Junk-man? Is that your name?
I told you to go home.
What are you all looking at? Get him!
You're dead!
You little!
Where do you think you're going?
- You asshole... - What?
Come over here.
Now!
I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.
That's how he beat us up!
Calm down.
And he turned my girlfriend into this mess!
Be quiet!
Be quiet! Sit down, sir.
Be quiet!
This is a terrible neighborhood.
Why'd you beat those kids up?
I'm sorry.
It's always the shiest puppy that's the first to go up the chimney.
Don't you mean kitten?
What are you laughing at?
That wasn't funny.
Yes, it was!
You think the cops are a joke?
You shouldn't have done that!
Why are you hitting him?
Those kids started it. We didn't do anything wrong!
Mister!
You should be the rod... The rod...
The rod of justice?
Thank you!
You should be the rod of justice! But this is police...
Police brutality?
Yeah! Police brutality!
This is police brutality!
Are you Japanese?
That's right. You pissed? Then meet me out back!
- Did you hear that? - Meet me out back!
Junko...
She knows how to be loyal.
She did well for herself.
I'm proud of her.
Hee-jeong?
How's Jong-man doing?
He's doing well. He comes to all our lessons.
Really? That's new.
I think he's changed.
What's that?
What's this?
It's a quiz game for foreign students!
Really?
Hey! The prize is 300,000 won!
Really?
Not too close...
Let's do this, Jong-man!
Only if we split the prize 50/50.
Okay.
- George? - You cheated!
That was cheating!
Cheating? I don't know that word.
Can you believe this used to be Junko?
I'm KITANO Junko.
I have been and always will be.
And I'm George. I have been and always will be.
Be quiet! Can't you see we're eating?
Be quiet. Can't you see I'm right here?
Why do you do this every time we eat?
The blank gets caught up in the whales' quarrel.
Turtle?
What are you talking about?
Why would a turtle get caught up with a whale?
Squid!
Wrong answer. It's shrimp.
That's right! I forgot.
It's shrimp.
Next question. The blank forgets its days as a tadpole.
Let me give you a hint. Ribbit! Ribbit!
Is that Korean?
Haven't you heard it before?
The little blank sings a little song?
Blank?
It's a frog! The animal that does this!
See? Ribbit, ribbit!
You mean kero, kero?
Ruff, ruff?
Wang, wang.
Chirp, chirp?
Piyo, piyo.
Glub, glub?
Paku, paku.
We must hear the same things differently.
What's wrong?
Nothing! I'm thirsty.
Get me a drink from the vending machine.
Just pay for it yourself.
What is wrong with me?
HEO Jong-man speaking!
What?
I knew he'd do this!
May I help you?
At first, I blamed Jong-man. I didn't want him coming here.
Jong-man offered to pay the bill, although I told him not to.
You should talk to him. Try to persuade him.
Dong-wook's gotten much better. Jong-man should forget about him.
He should move on.
Both Dong-wook and I want only the best for Jong-man.
2006 Boxing Tournament
Boxing Tournament Application Form
What were you doing in here?
Were you watching porn?
I'm not like you. I share all my videos.
So what are you hiding?
I'm not hiding anything. Get out of here.
Look, I'll support you if you want to take up boxing again.
Always I'm your side.
But you shouldn't enter that tournament.
Why? Is he going to do something?
Don't you have any interest in your friend?
Of course I do!
Can we go out for drinks now?
Hae-ryong?
My name is Ha-ryong.
This is freaking aces.
You should say this is really good.
It's freaking aces.
We're having gimbab?
They're for George.
Really?
Junko?
Try the ends. They're freaking aces.
They really are. You're the best cook ever.
Stop eating everything, George.
Leave some for the rest of us.
You can go ahead, Junko.
George is pissed!
What?
I'm doing all this work for you!
Jong-man!
I knew you'd be here.
Boxing Tournament Application Form
We can do this, Junko. Keep your eyes on the prize!
Are you nervous?
Actually...
Junko?
I brought you a gift. I hope you win.
Can we have the next participants?
That's us! Let's go.
Junko! Wait!
Aw... She dissed you!
Your names are HEO Jong-man. And Buckets Junko?
KITANO Junko.
Right. Whatever.
This is how it goes. Jong-man will ask the questions.
It's your job to answer them.
Start the quiz!
GORGEOUS
This means handsome or pretty.
I say it all the time.
- Boobs? - No! Not that!
This is the kind of girl I want.
Slutty skirts?
Slutty skirts! I like those, too!
Pass!
LIBRARY
This place is always air-conditioned!
Where do I go to study?
You never study!
Pass!
DUDE
This is what my friends call me!
You're a real blank!
Cheapskate?
Not that!
There's a song with this title. A real man is a real blank!
Look at me! What do I remind you of?
Bastard?
Pass!
This one's real easy!
The word my dad uses to call me!
Pervert!
No!
Jerk!
No!
Psycho!
That's all the time we have!
And you scored zero points! That's a new record!
Off the stage you go.
That was so embarrassing.
How am I supposed to come to school after this?
At least we had fun.
That wasn't fun.
Look at you.
Seems like you're having a good time.
Leave us alone.
I was just about to. But shouldn't you be at the gym?
Your fighting days were over a long time ago.
What are you talking about?
I look forward to it.
Look forward to what?
Didn't you see the players list?
You're fighting me in the preliminary round.
You should put in some practice if you want to fight me.
Let's make the match last more than 5 seconds.
See you, Jong-man!
What is he talking about?
Well...
What is it?
To be honest, I...
That was great!
Slutty skirt!
You made a complete ass of yourself!
- You scored zero points! - Hi, guys!
You turned in the application?
Yeah.
Application for what?
The tournament?
Really?
Why did you do that for?
You should compete in it.
For Dong-wook.
We both want you to be happy.
You want to be in that ring. I know you do.
You don't know anything!
What happened to Dong-wook was not your fault!
- If I were him... - Stop it!
You don't know anything!
You must think you know me.
You don't know anything about me!
You're right! I don't!
- Where are you going? - You don't need to know.
That's what you always say!
Did you guys have a fight?
Of course not!
Fine. You don't need to yell.
- Guys! - This is good.
Can I have some more rice?
Woo-sung?
Junko?
Woo-sung!
What are you doing here?
I should be asking you that.
It's so good to see you.
You've gotten really pretty.
How's your father doing?
Yes.
Money raising
Junk-man?
Is he a friend of yours?
Wait. Isn't he your friend?
I don't think so.
I've never met him before.
You don't know him?
What's going on, Junk-man?
I lied about being friends with him. Happy?
What?
At least you got to meet him. Isn't that what you wanted?
This is how I am.
I'm a liar and a cheat.
I've always been this way.
Coward!
Why can't you just say you're sorry?
You shouldn't be the one getting mad at me.
What are you doing? Come here.
Jong-man's famous around campus. How do you know him?
That idiot? I know him, too.
He's the biggest loser in school.
You don't know Junk-man.
You shouldn't talk that way.
Are we still going on that trip?
Why don't we leave tomorrow? Are you coming, Junko?
I'll pick you up from school at 1.
What you looking at?
Repeat after me.
What you looking at?
You stupid ass.
It was you guys? You taught him those words?
I know something's up.
Tell me what's going on.
I know what's going on!
Stay out of this, George.
Are Jong-man and Junko fighting? What's going on?
What happened between them?
I'm sorry.
I don't think I ever said that
to you before.
I always act like nothing's wrong with me.
But I was being a coward.
And I did it again.
I guess I wanted to run away from my problems.
Like the coward that I am.
Did you find him?
No.
We have to stop Jong-man.
And we have to find Junko!
- Okay. - Which way are you going?
- This way! - Then I'll go this way!
Did I keep you waiting? Hop in.
I'll take you someplace nice.
It's what you used to like in Japan.
I'm not going on this trip. I came to tell you that.
I don't think you're my akai ito.
That's too bad. I'll see you around.
Junko!
You have to come with me! Jong-man's going to do it!
He's getting in the ring!
No blows to the back of the head!
Watch my signals!
And keep it clean!
Box!
Jong-man!
Aim for his chin!
He's got a weak chin!
He hasn't boxed for a whole year! He's lost it!
You shouldn't have let him drink so much!
Down! Down!
Three! Four!
Five! Six! Seven!
Are you okay to go?
Box!
You're doing great!
Jong-man! Are you okay?
Just relax. Hang in there.
You can do it.
You can do it, Jong-man!
- You jerk! - Jong-man!
Stop hitting him!
Stop pummeling my son!
You asshole!
Junk-man!
Didn't you hear the bell! You were supposed to stop!
Relax, relax.
Bastard!
Take him out in round 3. Got it?
Jong-man!
Junk-man!
Down! Neutral corner!
Junk-man!
Match over!
Jong-man.
You did good, Jong-man.
That was the best match I've seen.
He beat you up pretty bad.
Crybaby.
Guesthouse.
Hello?
Well, Junko.
Don't worry, Junko.
Your father will be fine.
Junko...
It's almost time.
Take care.
Sayonara.
Passport, please.
Thank you.
Junko!
Sayonara.
Fighting!
What about this one?
Why? It's nice!
Dec, 24th
Come in!
Pick up for table 3!
- Thank you! - Thank you.
How are you keeping up, Junko?
I'm fine, dad. What about you?
I'm doing great. Back to work now!
Back to work!
Thank you!
Pick up for table 5!
I'm coming!
Azumi? The udon's here.
Junko? Come here a minute.
- Some kid's playing a joke on us. - What did you say?
It's bad enough I'm working on Christmas Eve.
What's going on? Can't you see I'm busy?
What's wrong, girls?
Nothing, dad.
What is it?
Look at this.
This is why I hate Christmas.
Akai ito?
Junko! Where are you going?
What took you so long?
I was freezing out here.
I came as an exchange student to see you.
You pissed?
Meet me out back!
How are you?
Welcome!
Azumi!
Idiots!
Even her accent is sexy! Idiots!
Idiots! Idiots!
That's not good enough for Azumi.
You're in my territory now. Repeat after me.
Practice makes perfect!
Practice!
