When I was a child, I saw my father fight a thief.
Although many years have passed,
that image of my father left a deep impression on me.
My dad drove the thief away.
But unfortunately, he lost his footing and passed away.
Looking at my dad's big bloody fist
I thought to myself,
'What would happen if that fist punches me?'
'It would hurt more than hell.'
No.
Hell would be better.
This technique is the famous 'Guillotine Choke.'
This one is the 'Rear-naked Choke.'
He's much better than yesterday.
Now it's done.
Who were you having sex with outside?
You bitch...
This man is a professional fighter.
And...
Fuck!
...I'm his wife.
PUNCH LADY
You dummy.
Why didn't you stay away from me when I'm drunk?
Wait a minute.
Here.
You didn't need to buy this for me.
Wow.
Were you out today? You penciled your eyebrows.
I went out to buy some soy sauce.
I'm telling you, nothing beats your bean-paste stew.
Remember when my teammates visited?
They went crazy over your stew.
I just made it out of a simple recipe.
The rice is a little watery.
This kind of rice is okay.
Who said that?
We Dongducheon citizens.
Put the hand down.
Put it down, damn it.
Come here. You better listen or else.
Please don't, honey.
Chun-shim will be here soon.
So what?
Beat me outside instead.
I called you two hours ago, but you didn't answer.
That bastard told you not to answer?
She just got back from the hospital.
No, Chun-shim, Mommy just made Daddy upset.
I can't stand this any more.
Shut up and go to your room!
She made me do this! Otherwise, I wouldn't!
And get a life, lady.
You enjoy getting hit all the time?
You little brat, don't talk back to your parents!
It's so fortunate that you're a fighter.
While you fight in a match,
I wish you'd die.
Chun-shim! Are you all right?
Why'd you throw an ashtray at her?
Hit me instead!
She's not my daughter, is she?
She's another man's daughter, isn't she?
You idiots had me so you can live like this forever?
You idiots?
Happy to give me a dumb name and fight like lunatics all the time?
You're dead meat today.
Don't! Don't!
What did I do, Chun-shim?
What did I do?
How could he press charges on you for getting hit in the head?
He's the one who always beats you.
Anyway, I borrowed the bail money, so pay it off quick.
Where are you going?
Hey!
I have to go grocery shopping. I'm out of stew ingredients.
You're insane! Is this the time to worry about that?
If he shuts us out, Chun-shim and I have no place to stay.
If you go, you think he'll welcome you back?
He'll kill you. Don't you know who he is?
Do you need to suffer more to know?
If you go back to him, I'll kill myself.
Chun-shim!
Kids these days do what they say.
And you know her temper.
But we have no place to go.
No, my place is too small for you.
It's all right.
We'll only stay until Chun-shim is back to her old self.
100 for rent, another 100 for food, plus electricity charges, okay?
Come on, you know I'm broke.
No work, no food.
There's a lot of work for housewives like you if you look.
- Kkakdugi, please. - Okay!
Here's your soda.
- We didn't order it. - Sorry.
Could you bring us some more kimchi?
Okay.
- One more bowl of rice, please! - Coming.
- Where's my kimchi? - Coming.
- You're too slow. - I'm so sorry.
I'm coming. Sorry.
What are you doing? Hurry up!
Table 25.
Okay.
Here you are.
- Oh! It's hot! - You put your finger in it.
- I can't eat this. - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- Are you all right? - Mrs. Clumsy!
- Yes? - Come here!
- I'm so sorry. Are you all right? - Damn it.
- It must really hurt. - Come here right now!
I'm coming. One second.
How could you leave the tray on the customer's head?
- What is this? - I'm sorry.
- Come over here. - Yes.
You wrote down the wrong order.
Why'd you write 'beef' instead of 'soup'?
What will you do about this?
I'm very sorry.
You've made too many mistakes.
I'll take that!
You're going to eat this?
Yes.
Take off your shoes!
Oh, right!
Going to eat all this by yourself?
This could make your stomach explode.
I had hoped you'd recognize me.
Pardon?
It's me, Sung-yeon. Park Sung-yeon.
You know where she is, Sun-ae.
Don't play with me!
I really don't know.
I'll kill you if you're lying to me!
I'll kill your mother, kids, your whole damn family!
Shit!
She's really asking for it. She runs away after I put her in jail?
She must be crazy, damn it!
Damn bitch.
What's he getting all worked up for? I'm single with no kids!
I'm sorry, the dog must've smelled meat on your pants.
I'm sorry.
Come here boy. Let's go.
I'm so sorry. Come here!
I'm sure you're already married. Have any kids?
No, I'm not married yet.
Oh, then you didn't marry and had kids?
No, I'm neither married nor do I have kids.
Well...
Ha-eun...
Let me speak first.
I'm totally broke.
Water purifier, insurance, cosmetics and stuff...
I can't buy any of them.
I'm not here to sell you anything.
Sorry, I just thought...
Do you still play tennis?
You know, you won that championship when we were in high school.
I don't play anymore.
Then badminton? Or table tennis?
I'm a pro fighter.
You must be kidding me.
You couldn't fight at all.
It's been thirteen years since we've broken up.
People change.
Can you come see my match?
The day after tomorrow, on Christmas day, five p.m.
Christmas...
I promised to go to church with Sun-ae then.
I'm going to fight your husband.
How'd this happen?
I really want you to come.
You know that I have no family to cheer me on.
I'll be waiting for you.
This doesn't look like a tutoring institute.
It's just a gym.
Change the interior, and it'll be perfect.
'Change the interior'?
I'm up to my neck, paying off interest to loan sharks.
And just changing the interior won't do.
It'll cost over 50 million won.
Come on, cancel it.
Young-ho! Where are you?
Hey! Hey!
Stop eating the cookie and crack these gingko nuts.
My hands almost froze up from picking them at dawn.
Why don't you turn on the boiler?
I can see my breath in this place.
Come on, gas is so expensive.
When your mom pays rent, I'll turn it on.
Finally!
Don't you have something to tell me?
Let me just rest, please.
I heard that at lunch you ran out with a customer in your uniform.
Didn't I tell you that owner bought three insurance policies from me?
Let me introduce both fighters.
Merry Christmas!
You're watching Christmas special event for KO-2!
The blue corner, fighter Park Sung-yeon.
He's got 10 times match, 7 times win, 3 times lose
Yes, that means he won one time in a month.
There's Gwak Ju-chang.
He's the king of KO-2, now.
Stay your corner.
Box!
- Good! Good! - Great! That's it!
Shorter! Shorter!
Get out of there!
Move back!
He's not bad.
That's violation!
He hit by his elbow!
Go! Box!
Hey, get up!
Five!
Six! Seven!
Shit, how humiliating.
What a waste.
I missed you by an inch.
That's a violation.
Sung-yeon! Sung-yeon!
That's unfair.
That's right.
Weak amateur fighters make the crowd leave the stadium.
You all know that.
Matches recently are too loose.
I mean, more powerful and tougher matches...
Park Sung-yeon is dead.
We've just received news about Park Sung-yeon's death.
Could you give us a word on it?
I give my condolences.
He had a good fighting spirit.
- You can't come here. - Wait!
Hey! Hold her!
- Why did you do it? - Grab her!
Why did you fight dirty?
You didn't have to kill the poor man.
Get out of here.
What the hell are you talking about?
Take her out!
- Let go of me! Let go of me! - Hey, hey!
Why make a fuss over an amateur fighter dying?
What did you say?
Are you his wife or something?
Why are you so upset at me?
You're so evil. You'll be punished for it.
Punished?
Let go of her.
Please don't videotape me. Hold on.
Are you insane?
You feel that much pity for him?
Why? Want to seek revenge for him?
- Yes. - Yes?
I wish I could.
Shit, then let's fight.
Ju-chang! Ju-chang!
Why? Don't want to here?
Oh, I see that the only place you can kill me is in a ring, right?
Then how about we fight in the ring?
Yes! Let go of me!
Let's fight! Let's do it!
- You crazy bitch! - Hey! Hey!
Hey! I'm your husband, Gwak Ju-chang!
You proposed to fight first.
What do you know about fighting?
I know how to fight. I'm just sick of it now.
- Do you have experience in fights? - What's your main sport?
Why are you asking an ignorant housekeeper for?
I can do judo, taekwondo, hapkido, everything.
Don't think that I can't.
Oh, is that so? When did you learn them?
You don't need to know. I won't tell you.
When will you fight her?
Do you really believe what she's saying?
- Can't you see that she's crazy? - One month...
Well, um, in three months.
Fine! You want to go for it, huh?
Did you all hear her?
She asked to fight me first, so I'm not responsible if she dies.
If a man fights a woman, isn't the woman at a disadvantage?
Then how about if I tie up my left hand?
Forget it! You don't have to be sparing.
If I say I will, I will!
What the heck are you doing?
A man fights his wife with his left hand tied.
As much of a man he is, fighting like that won't be easy.
This match will make big money.
Husband Fights Wife in Ring
A One-Off Occurrence? Or Possible Public Promise?
Honey!
Your boss and how many are coming over?
- Withdraw! - Withdraw! Withdraw!
Stop! Stop!
Is the fish fresh?
Of course, it's very fresh today.
Want some?
Owner of Restaurant She Worked At Wants to Support Her
I can't live without you. I'm serious.
Hey, look at this.
Good face, good body, and now 'good guts' housewife Jung Ha-eun
Next news.
A KO-2 match between Gwak Ju-chang and Park Sung-yeon was held today.
During the match, Park Sung-yeon fell outside the ring and died.
- Hurry up! Here. - At the press conference,
Gwak Ju-chang's wife Jung Ha-eun insisted that her husband fouled.
She also challenged her husband to a match.
Many are amazed at the match between husband and wife,
which is the first of its kind in history.
And Jung Ha-eun noticed that she is a blackbelt in martial arts...
How bold she is!
The world has gone nuts.
Just think how bad he was for his wife wanting to fight him.
The Korean federation of Woman issued a joint statement...
Are you crazy? What are going there for?
You've never been to the gym before!
And where the hell were you last night?
The public bath, just in case the reporters find me.
- Hey! - Please stop yelling.
I had lost it for a moment then.
I poor man had died and all they were interested in was the killer.
No matter how out of it you were there are things you shouldn't say.
How could you say, 'Fight me!' to your husband?
Will they accept my apology if I confess it was just a mistake?
They won't believe what a woman in rage would say, right?
How could a bold woman like you live being beaten everyday?
Are they the reporters?
How could they know that you're here?
- Home-delivery service... - Insurance company...
- Home-delivery... - Insurance...
To Jung Ha-eun
Jung Ha-eun is the beneficiary of Park Sung-yeon's insurance.
Park Sung-yeon...
The fighter who died?
To Sung-yeon, From Ha-eun
For 13 years,
this is the ring I've kept to propose to you.
I told you that I'd buy it for you.
Do you really like it?
I don't need it any more.
I'm very sorry.
You'll meet a nice woman soon.
What are you talking about?
I have to go back to work.
How much is the claim?
It's 500 million Won.
Hey, you!
You hit the jackpot!
It's 500 million Won!
Come out! Let's have a talk!
Aren't you coming out?
Why are you hiding?
Where's that crazy woman?
I can't stand this any longer!
Is she in there?
Open the door!
Chun-shim, take your shoes off first.
Open the door!
According to our research,
Jung Ha-eun has proven to be a blackbelt in martial arts,
such as kick-boxing, taekwondo and the like.
But isn't the physical power between men and women different?
Yes, some people are worried about that.
But above all, the couple wants to fight each other.
What the hell are they talking about?
And Gwak Ju-chang declared that he'll fight her with his left hand tied.
So I don't think there will be a problem with fairness.
Are they really planning to hold their match?
The match will be three minutes, three rounds by KO-2 rules.
And a non-title match.
I'm going to fight.
No. I have to fight.
I will do it.
- Shut up! - Be quiet!
Where are you going?
I'll go find a gym first.
What?
Three months are left.
He'll tie his left hand, so I'll do whatever I can.
Even if he ties both of his hands, the odds of you winning is zero.
How many times did I tell you?
You've lost your mind because of the claim and that ring.
Ha-eun, we're in our mid-thirties.
We're not teenage girls who'd risk everything for love.
Most of all, the opponent is your husband.
Aren't you afraid?
I am.
I know this is crazy.
But if I don't do this, I'll die of guilt.
What guilt?
Chun-shim...
You never stood up to Dad before even though he beat you everyday.
But why are you insisting to fight for a dead stranger?
Think that makes any sense?
I'm sorry, but we don't accept women.
She's that woman on TV who said she'd fight her husband.
They're my mom and sisters.
MUAYTHAI
Instructors Wanted for Nursery What's a 'nursery'?
Just install two slides...
Spread a few toys around... That's a nursery.
Good morning.
I didn't advertise my business yet.
Well, I want to do it.
You've raised a kid, of course?
Yes, a daughter.
Great.
Can you start next week?
Yes! Of course!
Can I beat him like this, like in the movies?
You shouldn't beat the children.
Thank God.
Are you that...
Fight your husband...?
I'm sorry, but this place isn't a gym any more.
Is it because I'll fight my husband?
You're on his side too since you're a man, right?
No, it's not that...
But on TV they said you're good at martial arts.
I was out of my mind then.
I'll give you 100 million Won if I win the match.
Are you serious?
What a woman says is worthier than gold.
Let's start the day after tomorrow.
Okay?
Sun-ae?
Chun-shim?
Whose shoes are these?
Mom! What are you doing here?
My goodness!
The boiler broke and my cat Pippi froze to death.
Mom...
Since my stomach doesn't work right, it must be stomach cancer.
You said you had liver cancer last month.
Hey, get it right.
Last month was lung cancer. Liver cancer was the month before last.
Mom...
I know this is Sun-ae's place.
What took you so long to buy the medicine?
That's why your husband left you.
Sun-ae, you remember, right?
That I put up money for your father's business.
Oh, good morning!
I can do it.
Who are you...?
I want to learn martial arts.
My wife beats me, pinches me, goes nuts on me all the time.
But I can't beg her since I'm a man.
I can't cry before my kids, either.
But it hurts too much to endure.
This is a dilemma.
A few days ago,
I got beat up bad by the club bouncer in front of my girlfriend.
How could such a brutal thing happen in this democratic society?
Then I think you should go to the police...
No!
I took off without paying.
I'm sorry but this gym is closed, so go find another one.
Then what's she doing here?
You must be new students.
Nice to meet you.
I'm glad I'm not learning alone.
Hello, I'm Mr. Dawg.
Oh, is 'Dog' your family name?
Not Dog, it's Dawg. I'm Dawg Sung-ha.
Oh, Dawg.
I'm Pork Jun-tae.
Your names are very unique.
Wow, what's this?
Let me see!
I didn't know what to wear, but I tried my best.
Is it too much?
Very much.
Well, shall we start?
Wait.
How are my shouts?
I trained all night while watching Bruce Lee's movie.
Not bad.
Fights for KO-2 are the standing style.
So apart from using your feet, it's very similar to boxing.
Excuse me.
Aren't you going to teach us?
Please teach me the 580-degree-backspin-kick first.
Go jump rope first! Go!
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Going into techniques in more detail,
the Hook Tornado is a lower spin kick.
Spinning back and kick, the Backspin kick.
This is a very difficult one.
The Flying Knee is Remy Bonjasky's main technique.
It's jumping and striking the object with your knee.
Flying Knee.
Coach.
Aren't you going to show it to me?
Show it to you?
The first day we learn theory.
Straight punch.
Knee kick.
Stretch your leg as far as you can.
I can't.
As you change the fraction into a decimal,
make it an infinite decimal.
So it's six-20th multiplied.
Y is doubled and quadrupled.
- And two-Xth times is three times Y. - Hey, don't you smell something awful?
Look at the hole in his socks.
Don't do that again.
When you put nine and six in them, the nine is...
Head!
Waist!
Head! Head!
I told you not to mess around in the gym, idiots!
Go change the glass right now before Ju-chang kills you.
You bastards.
Hey! What are you doing here?
Hello.
I want to learn martial arts.
Kim Su-hyeon I want to master it in ten days.
I also want to learn the deathblows.
Going wild like in the movies...
We don't teach how to kill, got it?
Get out of here! Now!
Master! I have to learn no matter what.
Go find somewhere else. Get out right now!
I have a girl I need to protect.
As a man?
Yes, as a man.
Why didn't you tell me before? Go change first.
Do it right!
Harder!
What are you doing?
Higher! Higher!
No, lower! Lower!
Stand upright!
Again!
Hey! Hey!
Wake up!
I said wake up!
Punch straight to the face...
Or the belly continuously...
Coach, you have a habit of trembling your legs.
It's bad luck.
- Your face is swollen... - Anyhow,
Anyhow, let's start basic training starting today.
- Don't do that. - Okay.
Coach, let me start with the legendary cobra twist.
I want to start with the leg-locking backspin kick with shoulder throw.
Go jump the rope!
Idiot.
Hit me. Straight punch! Come on!
Are you sure?
Hit me hard.
Hit me on the hands, not the face.
Next is the low kick.
First, you should harden your shins.
Come on!
I'm afraid of making a mistake again.
It's okay.
Come on!
Oh my goodness.
- Are you all right? - I swear I heard something pop.
Chun-shim's father
Could you stay here with me just for a minute?
Are you crazy?
We called you here to first take care of the legalities.
The winner will take the apartment and custody of the child.
What do you think?
If both of you don't agree, you can reject this.
But if you do, Gwak Ju-chang won't drop the charges.
The penalty for violence is a maximum 7 years in jail
or a 10,000 Won fine.
It's not too late yet to beg for forgiveness.
Then I'll forget everything, eh?
Hold it in!
Harden your belly! Do it!
Hold it!
Move your hands.
Bear it! A little bit more!
Don't widen your legs!
Sit upright!
Good! Faster!
Cost: 1,690,000 Won
Sun-ae, I can't move my legs.
I told you not to go there, you idiot!
Quit this instant!
Give me some meat.
I can't do anything with an empty stomach.
How can I when I already have so many mouths to feed?
I'll buy you some once I move.
I made it with the photo I captured from the Internet.
Once more! Once more!
Grab the face! The face!
Lift it harder!
Nobody blocks the low kick with his hands.
Put the hands away.
Are you all right?
Yes, Coach.
Dodge! Dodge!
Closer! Closer!
No, put your legs up!
Closer! Closer!
Faster! Faster!
Stop! Stop!
Open your eyes!
You're such a coward.
What was that?
I thought it was a hook, but it came straight at me.
It was Igor's Russian Hook. Awesome, huh?
The Russian Hook is when the opponent is close enough,
you move your fist far, drawing a big circle like a pendulum,
and according to your steps, put your weight into your punch.
Rather than the punch, like the woman in the ad
I want to learn how to kick very high.
- They call it... - The high kick.
Yes, that's it, the high kick!
Isn't it great?
You can't even knee kick.
It could tear your legs.
Really?
Then get her to apply for our insurance.
She could get killed.
- Hello! - Who are you?
Do you work at an insurance company?
Yes.
Great, I'm planning to apply for insurance.
- Oh, really? - Yes,
Yes, what's the most expensive one?
'I'm a victim of domestic violence.' 'My husband Gwak Ju-chang was...'
Good morning!
The floor is very, very warm.
Boilers in Seoul are much better than in the countryside.
Are you groping the gingko nuts?
Why'd you paint your nails with your poo color?
That's why your husband left you.
I asked him for a divorce first.
You caused your husband to cheat with that sausage store woman.
Excuse me, it wasn't a sausage store. It was a steakhouse.
Park Sun-ae!
You!
Come with me. Now!
Gwak Ju-chang, a Wife-beater!
Friend, Park Sun-ae, Testifies
What the hell did you tell the reporters?
What do you know?
I didn't think it would be a problem.
You really haven't beaten your wife?
This is driving me crazy. Think about it.
If she was beaten by me, think she'd want to fight me?
And how could you think of me as a violent husband?
I'm an athlete with sportsmanship.
Many are opposing your match. Will you keep it going?
Ask her about that. Since I feel like I've been betrayed.
Don't close your eyes and look at me.
Open your eyes.
Coach!
Are you all right, Coach?
I'll give you my clothes at least.
Take off your wet shirts first. You have to dry your body.
I'm just suffering from fatigue.
Why are you being shy in front of an old maid?
- I'm not asking to see your thing. - Why my 'thing'...?
Oh, come on.
What happened to your back? Did you fight someone?
It's nothing.
Your back is wider than I'd thought.
Even though I don't remember quite clearly,
my father had a back like yours.
A father's wide back is the warmest support for
a daughter to get through life.
That's my father.
He looks great, huh?
How'd he pass away?
When I was six, he died in an accident while catching a thief.
What a man of justice.
He looks a bit worn, though.
What? What did you say?
No, nothing.
Put this on and wipe the sweat off.
Can't marry a married woman, right?
1,000 Won, right?
Here you are.
Wife and a dried pollack have to be hit every three days.
Old sayings are always right.
Any beating shouldn't be a cause for revenge.
I'm sure she deserves it.
Ha-eun, if you would...
If you have time...
Ha-eun, if you would...
What's wrong?
Coach! Coach! Big new! Big news!
The store owner said
the lady who'll fight her husband lives near here.
He said her hair looks like tentacles, and she tied a tire to her waist.
Ma'am, let's go see her together.
Oh, that is...
Coach, think this is crazy like the others do?
It's not common, well, but it sometimes...
You don't have to clean up.
Mr. Kim, aren't you going home?
Going to watch porns again by yourself?
Of course not.
That's what old bachelors do, I guess.
I understand. I'm leaving.
When have I ever watched porns here? I'm not like you.
Ju-chang punches from 72 degrees to 40...
From 52 to 40...
Then the synergy effect of her attack will work at 40 degrees.
To tie up Ju-chang's right hand, you should attack his right leg.
And in order to attack his right leg,
a low kick is the best.
When he uses his favorite left jab,
you bend your upper body 30 degrees and fake a hit to him.
Then low kick him on the shin 2 centimeters under the knee.
You have to keep the distance of 1.3 meters.
And if you call this corner X, you turn left diagonally from a Y axis.
Hit and run, hit and run.
You can raise his fatigue up to 32.2 percent.
Then he will get extremely upset
and will try to punch your face.
Then fake a knee kick and use your best weapon.
What is it?
I don't know it yet.
Anyway, I watched the video 300 times last night
to draw up this tactic.
Are you all right?
I'm sorry. I have a headache. I have to go.
Let me give you a ride!
But my place is the opposite way.
Your money includes transportation. Hop in. Come on.
Hurry.
Coach, you're single, right?
Yes, I haven't met a woman who understands a true master.
- Can I roll down the window? - No, nothing works in this car.
Well, you can train your arms on your way home.
What?
It even got notarized?
The apartment and custody of the child were the conditions?
I had no other choice.
You idiot!
You should've gotten out of it.
Then even if you lose the match, you'd be able to ask for mercy.
What's that?
Nothing.
You dummy.
Why don't you just bury yourself in front of city hall?
You're absolutely hopeless.
Mom, you don't have anything to say?
You must've seen the news about my fight on TV or in the paper.
You're going to fight someone?
You didn't know? She's going to fight her husband.
What aren't you in your room?
Bottoms up!
Well, I'm not good at drinking, so how about half?
Bottoms up!
Tell me.
What do you mean by 'custody of the child'?
- Well, it's... - What if you lose?
I have to live with him?
I'll win...
How? How can you win the match?
Don't make any decisions on my life!
Little brat needs to wash her mouth with soap.
Shut up, meat fat.
What? Meat fat?
Middle school girls these days think they're tough shit.
Please. She just made a mistake.
Check this out.
Mom and daughter are both a team.
You're making a mistake.
Have you heard of a Hook Tornado?
- Hook Tornado? - She's crazy.
You wanna do it?
Stop trembling your legs.
Oh, the little brat even drinks.
Hey lady, how'd you raise your kid?
Chun-shim!
It's crunchier than I thought.
Just like burned meat fat.
You've absolutely lost your mind.
Idiots.
Idiots?
Get out of here!
Why are you harassing those women?
What the...
They look pretty close.
Bitch has been cheating already?
Who the hell is this bastard?
Fuck!
You! Come up to the ring!
Is he the guy who's going to fight his wife?
Are you crazy? Shut up.
Yeah, you.
You guys get out.
Do you have a problem with me fighting my wife?
Sir, I think there's a misunderstanding.
Look down, you son of a bitch!
Yes.
We should be reasonable about...
Son of a bitch!
You bastard!
What's going on?
Stop it, Ju-chang!
You're going to kill him.
Let go of me!
That son of a bitch!
Calm down.
Did you beat your wife like this?
What?
Until she's in this much pain?
- You son of a bitch! - Calm down.
You're not a human-being.
Stop it!
What are you doing with an amateur?
I'm okay.
I came here because I got sick of my wife hitting me.
But this place is for husband-beaters.
Cut your wiener off and feed to the dogs.
Good morning.
I hope you win the match, lady.
Did you eat breakfast? I brought some rice rolls.
Your face...
How did you stand it until now?
I'm sorry, but I think I better go home now.
Not that car.
How come he keeps following me?
Hop in. You can roll down the window.
I'm all right.
Ha-eun?
Chun-shim!
- Good morning. - Hi.
She's my daughter.
Say hello to him. He's the coach who teaches me.
Lady, he's...
Let's go together.
I'll give you all a ride home.
- No, thanks. - It's okay.
Wait! Wait a second!
Listen to me.
Soon as you get in, hold your breath and roll down the window, okay?
Your daughter is so pretty, just like you.
Except for her scribbling habit.
Sorry?
Hey, Coach. When did you start martial arts...?
Oh, I'm sorry. The back window doesn't work.
What's wrong?
Chun-shim, what's wrong?
- Pull over! Pull over! - Chun-shim! Chun-shim!
She must have eaten something bad.
Ha-eun.
Were you surprised when I suddenly hugged you?
Are you all right?
Hey, wake up!
Coach?
He's the driver! The man in the khaki jumper!
Hey, foolish Coach.
Do you like my Ha-eun?
Where's Ha-eun?
Or do you want to scam an innocent lady for some money?
Is your mom all right?
Chun-shim.
You're pathetic.
Ha-eun.
Why'd you do that?
You wouldn't be like this if you hadn't protected me.
My car has no airbag, so I did it instead.
Did they catch him?
The police said that it'll be hard since it's a hit-and-run.
Anyway, since I ended up like this how can I train you now?
I'll work it out on my own.
The way you've taught me.
Shit.
Did you call me out?
And there's a witness, too.
What are you going to do?
What's that? Is that me?
Why are you here?
Let's stop now.
What are you talking about?
Everything I've done was because I didn't want to lose you.
You know that very well, don't you?
Think about it.
If a man's wife cheats on him, who could bear that?
Why don't we start all over?
I swear. I will never ever hit you again.
I'll be a nice husband.
You don't want to bring up Chun-shim without a father, right?
You killed an innocent man.
And now you want to erase everything?
Why? Afraid of people condemning you?
For beating your wife to death?
Honey, don't you know how I truly feel?
What feelings?
Have you ever had feelings for me?
Damn it, you're really not helping.
This is humiliating.
Custody of the child?
Take it all. I'll give it to you. But...
You're mine.
You're to live and die with me together.
Stop crying.
I've told you no many times since I was afraid of this.
Why did you stop the treatment?
Oh, Mom.
Bring me some water. You make me thirsty.
Remember the day your Dad died?
Why bring that up suddenly?
Did you see the thief's face?
How could I? It was very dark and far away.
No, you did.
Because you made eye contact.
With me.
What are you talking about, Mom?
The younger you are,
the better you are at forgetting bad memories.
You must've wanted to forget that horrible sight.
I've lived longing for you so much.
I heard that you're going to fight your husband.
I'm not sure what it is and I'm not sure what's right.
But Ha-eun...
Life is for happiness.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
I was so shocked when I heard you're also bitten everyday.
I thought it was my fault...
Forget all about it.
It's all what happened in the past.
10 million Won
Ha-eun, do you really think that you can defeat Ju-chang?
No matter how much you try, you can't beat a man.
It's not discrimination.
It's simply a difference.
Ju-chang is stronger than you imagine.
Concentrate on your job now.
You shouldn't have accepted that fool. It's humiliating.
I'm sorry.
That's not the point now.
What the hell?
Seeing that you're here I must've made some sense to you.
My mom has stomach cancer.
She can still cure it, but she doesn't want to.
Like some dead child, Chun-shim never smiles,
and she doesn't even want to see me.
Are you sad?
What the hell are you talking about?
I feel so much pain and despair I feel like dying.
So I'm asking how do you feel?
I thought it would be okay if I was to bear it all.
I grew up without a father,
and I didn't want to same to happen to Chun-shim.
I've lived enduring it all until now.
But I've lost two people I love most.
Shit, so what? Still want to fight me?
Do you want to end up like some monkey in a zoo?
Yeah.
It's a humiliating event.
But...
You need a beating.
What?
Personally, I don't like violence, but I will fix your bad habit.
Am I hearing you right?
I thought about letting you slide, but do you want to die now?
I got this great picture from my coach.
You wanted to kill me that bad?
Then kill me in the ring.
You could've hurt Chun-shim, too.
It's too late to turn things back.
Never give up
- Objection! - Objection!
- Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence! - Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence!
- Husband and wife fight objection! - Husband and wife fight objection!
- Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence! - Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence!
- We object the match! - We object the match!
- We hate the KO-2! - We hate the KO-2!
- Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence! - Gwak Ju-chang is hammer of violence!
Please sign it.
Any accidents are the responsibility of the fighter.
Lady, are you really going to do it?
I'm so sorry, Chun-shim.
For what happened at the street bar, at home, and from your dad...
I couldn't protect you from getting hurt.
I'm very sorry.
Was she the woman you had to protect?
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to lie to you.
Man, my dad should've seen this match.
Take care of her, as a man.
Play with her in round one, and do whatever you want in round two.
A short match isn't exciting.
Regardless of your request, this match isn't just a show any more.
Support her with all you've got.
- Let me introduce the fighters! - Yes.
A match between a married couple is very exceptional, isn't it?
Days ago, news reported that she was the victim of domestic violence.
But Gwak Ju-chang very strongly denied it.
If it was true, this match would've been stopped.
Yes, it would.
The blue corner, Jung Ha-eun.
KO Champion, Gwak Ju-chang!
And there is Champion, Gwak Ju-chang!
Gwak Ju-chang! Gwak Ju-chang!
- Go Gwak Ju-chang! - Go!
They're really fighting?
What a spiteful woman!
Did he want to beat his wife that bad?
He doesn't deserve to be a man.
- Do you live here? - Whatever.
What handicap is given to him?
As you see, Gwak Ju-chang is binding his left hand.
So he's going to use his right hand.
You think it's harm to him?
Yes, because of that, she can attack the right side.
Mouthpiece? Guard?
Attacking the back of the head or fatal areas are forbidden.
Did you train a lot?
Don't get too scared and pee.
I've already peed.
To your corner!
It's not late yet. Please.
It's too late.
Fight!
Come on, I'll let you hit me.
Break!
Ha-eun, are you all right?
Did my punch wake you up?
Run away!
Faster!
Run away!
Where's the courage you had before?
How long are you going to run away?
Box!
Don't go closer.
I didn't even touch you, damn it.
Box!
Break!
Jung Ha-eun, step back! Jung Ha-eun, step back!
Hey, hurry and finish it up.
Don't toy with her for too long.
No, I won't.
I'll cripple her so she'll never leave the house.
Please stop. You're no match to him.
I closed my eyes.
What are you doing?
Was it your plan to keep running away?
Quit now!
The match hasn't ended yet.
Fight!
You want to quit, don't you?
No, I'm enjoying it.
You're crazy.
Want to quit your life as a woman?
Did you ever see me as a woman?
I don't see you as a human-being.
What did you say?
Break!
Box!
I'll kill you.
Turn right! Right!
Knee kick! Knee kick!
Foul! Foul! He fouled!
Going up in the ring is a foul, too.
Foul!
Shut up! What foul?
He is completely crazy about killing his wife.
Did you see me open my eyes?
I didn't close my eyes.
Please stop. You're going to be killed.
Please.
Teach me the deathblow.
Master.
Russian Hook!
Remember it?
When he rushes to you, fake a knee kick.
He'll step back since he got hit by it once.
Then you move in diagonally and give him the Russian Hook.
What are you waiting for?
This match is getting ridiculous.
My brain's shaking.
What?
My brain's shaking, damn it.
Shit, I was careless.
Promise me.
If you can't stand it any longer, you'll quit.
Box!
Wow, can't believe you're still alive till round three.
You talk too much.
Focus on the match, will you?
Oh no!
This can't get back...
Three!
Four!
Please stop.
Five!
Six!
Seven!
Eight! Are you okay?
Box!
Three!
Four!
Five!
- Six! - Don't get up!
Seven!
- Don't get up! - Eight!
Are you okay?
Box!
Shit! Don't get up!
Ha-eun, that's enough.
Stop it, please.
Look at this.
I'm a human-being.
What the hell are you talking about?
Have you lost your mind from my punch?
There's nothing that deserves to be beaten.
You poor bastard.
It worked!
The Russian Hook!
I'm not afraid of your punch any more.
I'm very used to it.
Gwak Ju-chang! What are you doing?
You're going to lose to a woman?
Who said I'll lose?
Do you like it?
Do you?
This is what you wanted, right?
Stop! Stop!
Game out!
Are you all right?
Honey, I'll be good to you, so please treat me nice, too.
Honey, where are you going?
Ju-chang!
Come back up here!
Think it makes sense that I lost?
- Ju-chang! - Let go of me!
Back to the ring.
My mom's surgery went well last month.
But she still insists that it was a sausage store when she sees Sun-ae.
To become a real Master,
my coach just got a yellow belt in taekwondo.
He tried for it ten times.
Chun-shim still thinks her name is old-fashioned,
and keeps asking me to change it to a pretty one.
I like Chun-shim, though.
And I'm having a fight everyday...
A fight with myself to live a happy life.
