Answer Me 1994
2013, Seoul, Sangam-dong
Hey, I don't think one squid is going to be enough. You should cook 3 to 4 more.
Did they come to a housewarming party to eat? They should just nicely pour beer into their throat!
Oppa, pass me the mayonnaise from there.
Mayonnaise.
There isn't much left.
Aish, that's annoying.
Go to the store for me.
Give it to me. Let me try.
Are the squids going to take longer? Hurry up and bring them over.
Okay.
Na Jeong, don't blow out of your nose.
Ok, done.
Oppa is sorry.
Your age is forty three, forty three. Please grow up.
Oh, wow. Your skin is so nice, when you're turning forty, the day after tomorrow.
1994 Summer
What are you fretting over like that?
So in this world, there are only these two women.
From these two, you have to choose one no matter what and live with one. Which one will it be?
Oh man, you timid bastard.
It's hypothetical, "if".
Why are you fretting over it? I'm asking for fun.
Is it to date or to marry?
Starting with dating to marriage. The entire thing. Answer already.
Is it Na Jeong or Yoon Jin?
Then...
do you have to sleep with them?
Aish, really.
That's right. You'll sleep with them. Sleep.
Everyday, everyday, you guys will sleep together. Kids too, you'll pop out ten kids.
Until you're old and gray, you'll sleep together. You happy?
Yup.
Then, I'll pick Na Jeong.
Yes.
Don't be offended.
How about you?
Na Jeong for me too. I can never live with her.
See, look at her. Her eyes are going to shoot out.
I already have two votes.
All this time you guys were stirred by me. How did you guys manage to live in the same house as me?
Girl, you're going overboard.
Hey, it's because you're a push over compared to Yoon Jin.
That's not it, Hyungnim. I answered truthfully.
Na Jeong is much prettier and feminine.
Why are you being like that? Yoon Jin is cute. It wasn't that easy for me.
Then you, will it be Yoon Jin or Na Jeong?
For me?
For me...
Naturally, Yoon Jin.
Answer truthfully.
I did answer truthfully.
I usually like petite women freaking much.
I've always liked bright and positive women freaking much.
How about you, Doctor?
Who would you pick between the two?
Which one to date, from the two?
Well... I would...
Wait a minute! Wait.
Right? This kind of thing makes people quite nervous.
Doo goo , doo goo, doo goo (drum roll).
Will it be Na Jeong or Yoon Jin?
For me, Yoon Jin.
She is family. Family.
Then now, it's women's turn.
Yoon Jin, for you, from the men here, who would it be?
If you have to choose one person to live with?
What's with you? It's not me?
I'm disappointed.
Well anyway, one couple is formed.
Inwardly, Team Trash hyungnim is quite popular.
Hyungnim, since it was brought up, how about you two date each other?
Are you crazy?
Hyungnim. If you're to live with her, you have to put your life on the line.
Na Jeong, what about you? Only you left. Who are you going to choose?
♪ No matter how you like me now. ♪
♪ That might be only for now.♪
♪ Because ♪
♪ That's... ♪
♪ Your words ♪
- Chil Bong. - Bong Bong. ♪ I just laugh off ♪
Wow. Chicken.
♪ You wouldn't know my heart. ♪
Episode 8 The choice of the moment that affects you for life ♪ I like everything about you ♪
♪ but for me now ♪
The chicken is here. ♪ it was a fear ♪
By the way, what about me?
What are you guys doing?
Welcome. It's finished.
I can't win. I can't win.
What's wrong with your hair? Did you workout?
Let me borrow your hat.
My hat? Okay.
Give it to me.
♪ However, for some reason, everything is hard for me. ♪
Sunbaenim, you got paged.
I need to go make a phone call for a little bit and I'll come back.
♪ There are only difficult things ♪
♪ Woah, my heart ♪
♪Think about it. (Think about it). ♪
Did something happened to Na Jeong?
I don't know. Do you have another hat?
Who carries around two hats?
♫ But sometimes I avoid it, turn my face away. Do you feel it? ♫
Ah. You scared me.
♫ It's not because I don't like you. ♫
What? Are you going to make a phone call?
Use this to make a phone call. There's a lot of money left.
The earth will have perished.
The mountain collapses, the land rises, and the sea splits.
Beast or men, they all died.
What?
The only people left on earth are me, you, and Yoon Jin. Only three of us.
You have to get married, have a child, and have to propagate our species.
Is it me or Yoon Jin?
Choose. Who?
Is it me or Yoon Jin?
♫ Love in the days I'm longing ♫
Of course...
you, Na Jeong.
To me, is there any one other than you?
♫There cannot be anyone else except you. ♫
Where would I get this kind of fun toy?
Look at how your cheeks keep stretching.
You look ugly.
Turn into Da Seul. (The role played by Shim Eun-Ha in The Last Match in 1994.)
You idiot! Ah. Seriously.
It hurts.
You wench. Even though I answered you, you still bullshit.
I'm saying I like you. YOU. You wench. I'm saying I'm choosing you! You!
Ah. That psycho.
Hey. In this world, there are only two women left, Na Jeong and Yoon Jin.
You have to date one of two people at any cost.
For me, Na Jeong. No matter what, Na Jeong.
Pharmacy
♫Always on a rainy morning by chance my heart flutters.♫
♫ I saw for a while my umbrella was the same as the red umbrella the girl was using. ♫
Did you get a cold?
No..Yes.
What?
Please give me medicine for headache. Mild one.
Okay.
It's 2,000 won.
You gave me 10,000 won, right?
For the bandage, the digestive medicine, and the condom together.
I need to give you change of 4,000 won.
Yes.
Condom.
Hey, let me use your umbrella with you. I didn't bring mine.
That.. That earlier...
I didn't buy it to use for myself.
What I mean is, I'm taking class for the history of sexuality.
The professor said that
buying that is not a bad thing.
That we need to learn to buy that confidently.
So I bought it as an experiment.
It's true. It wasn't for me.
Bullshit.
Hey. It's true. You can ask Sam Cheon Po to see if it's true or not.
Hey, do you see me as (1,2,) 3,5,7,9? (like toddlers skipping numbers)
What?
What I'm saying is do you just skim through when you look at me?
Although I look small like a bean, I'm an adult who knows everything an adult should know.
If you bought a condom, just say confidently that you bought a condom.
Why are you talking crap as if you've lost your mind?
Hey, there are many kinds of men in this world.
There are strong bright men who dream of platonic love when meeting a woman.
There are sex maniacs like you, who only always thinks about sleeping every day.
Hey. It's okay.
There are this or that kind of guys, that's why we say that the world is so strange.
Hey, we're at home. So I'll go in first.
You wash your dirty body in the rain and come in.
I'm going.
♫ My spirit is wounded. ♫
♫ Time is waiting for solitude, solitude is waiting silence, and silence is wating for hatred.♫
♫ Without being aware of it, time passed.♫
You wench! You scared me!
Because of you I was more surprised.
I think Mari is going to change soon.
Even so, that's Shim Eun Ha. (A famous Korean actress of that era)
Look how pretty she is.
Even if she turns into M, it doesn't scare me.
Really?
Of course.
She's changing. She's changing.
Oh my! Oh my!
Hey, hey, hey!
What are you guys doing? Are you guys having a couple-only party?
Hey, did you see it?
Hey, I'm asking if you've ever seen it? Have you ever seen me sleeping with a woman?
What did he say?
Hey! Hey!
Hey, to put it bluntly.
A grown adult is buying a condom, what's wrong with that?
You're a college student and you can't even understand that?
Hey, hey. If it's not you then it's fine, right? Why are you getting angry?
Obviously, there is something you're feeling guilty about since you're making such a fuss!
And speaking bluntly, what does it have to do with me that you buy a condom or not?
Why do you keep following me around and coming up with excuses?
I get it. I get it so go on with your own business.
Seriously, I'm going to crazy. Crazy. Seriously!
Hey, earlier you treated me like a trash!
If you don't even know how to do it right...
You shouldn't talk like that.
Even now, I'll let you go. Go and live with that bitch! (Voice of Na Jeong's mom)
Hey, how can you say such a thing?
Even though your mouth is open, you shouldn't talk bluntly!
What? Did I say the wrong thing?
You met your first love in 30 years. How did you get home if you're sad? Why didn't you just come home in the morning?
Dad, why? What's going on?
Na Jeong, you're lucky
that you'll get a famous step mother.
Gosh! Look at how you speak!
Hey, wife. With my age,
do you really think that I went out because I couldn't forget about my first love?
It's because the writer and the PD, as a set, they kept bothering me with calls.
That's why I went.
Did you go on to the show 'TV Carries the Love'? You said you were not going to.
It somehow just happened.
Your father, to meet his first love,
he already drove himself to
Yeouido KBS studio and came back.
He lied to me by saying that he wouldn't go.
He went there by himself today for recording.
How did you restrain yourself from wanting to see that woman?
You must have had a hard time, a hard time, Sung Dong Il!
To endure it all this time,
you must have had an extremely, truly, hard time!
Ah, really, this woman. You are acting so dramatic! Don't get the wrong person!
When I went to see her today, did I go on a date or did I hold her wrist?
Why are you writing a novel for nothing?!
That's right!
You said it right.
Since you met your first love in a while, you should've held her hands all night and
shed some tears. Why didn't you shoot a film or something?
When the most successful woman in Korea
calls you "Oppa, Dong Il Oppa",
which crazy bastard, which crazy bastard, who wouldn't fall for that?
Hello.
Is it you, Oppa?
Yeah, Jeong. I didn't bring my umbrella.
I will come. Wait for me.
Ah. Seriously. Stop with that crap.
If I met her and had a cup of tea with her, I would feel less unfair.
After the recording, I ran to home right away as if my shoes are on fire!!
What man does that?
Aigoo, look at him! So you wanted to have some tea with her!
Did your heart, your heart pound when you saw your first love after for a long time?
What is this noise?
Are Mother and Father arguing right now?
Dad, eventually went to that tv show 'TV Carries the love'.
And you know that the hottest star in Korea right now is Dad's first love.
Was that for real? I thought he was lying.
Mom found that out and she's gone nuts!
Stop it already. The baby in your belly will hear it!
Sook Sook, say hello. This is your biological father.
Take a careful look at him. Your dad
says he's going to leave for a step-mother.
Ah, Il Hwa! Stop it!
MOM!
Jeong, Jeong, Jeong. I can just run home. You don't need to come.
No. No. I'll be there shortly. Just stay there for a little bit.
Look at him! Just look at him! His heart is already pounding!
Hey. Hey. Don't eat all of that cake. That's my mom's cake.
Okay. I'll just eat half of it.
But where are you going?
Oppa said he forgot to take the umbrella. I'll be back.
Okay.
Let's go together.
Why? Why are you not watching the drama?
It's not close to finish. I can watch it after I go back.
Where is hyungnim? Library?
Yep. I need to meet him at the front of the library.
It's surprising actually. I heard he's a six year scholarship student.
That's what I heard.
He doesn't look like he's good at studying.
Your face doesn't look like you're good at baseball either.
Ah. Really?
Hey, anyway. Since when have Haitai and Yoon Jin dated?
What are you talking about? They are not dating.
I don't think so. Did you see them earlier? It looked just like lovers' quarrel.
You don't know women.
A woman never shows those kind of eyes in front of a person that she really likes.
Then, what kind of eyes does a woman give in front of a person that she really likes?
Oppa. Should we eat tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) before we go home?
Why? Do you want to eat tteokbokki?
But what if they closed already because of the rain?
If they're closed, we can just buy some chicken and go home.
Ah. How's Mother and Father? Are they still arguing?
Well. Mom's inferiority complex has definitely exploded.
If it were me, I would go see her.
You wench. Is that something a daughter should say?
Don't you know that she's become sensitive because of pregnancy?
Ah. It hurts.
Sinchon Boarding House
26 years ago, you killed your baby in your womb.
It's okay. It's okay.
Ah. Come on. Get off of me!
If you're scared, why don't you just not watch it?
I'm just kidding. I'm not scared at all.
I will go poop and be back.
Hey, Jo Yoon Jin. I saw everything.
Me too.
I know now for certain.
Know what?
You two, there is something going on, right?
Absolutely.
Didn't you see she was hugging Haitai?
So that was it.
No wonder! She was bitching at me all day long. That was how she shows her affection.
Hey, Jo Yoon Jin, are you interested in me?
If you are, you can tell me. I picked you last night.
Kiss my ass! Am I crazy for liking you, a sex addict?
This bastard, I knew you would end up like that one day.
With his deep double eye lids,
he looks like a pervert.
Ah, Hyungnim. How could you do this to me, too Hyungnim!
She is just spiting out whatever she feels like saying! I'm not that kind of person, Hyungnim!
And your eyelids are deeper than mine!
I know, you bastard!
That's my dream, you know. Sex mania.
Even though I'm like this because I'm busy, I will definitely make that dream come true someday.
Hey, Yoon Jin. You should make a good choice.
There's a saying that the choice of the moment that affects for a lifetime.
Who knows? Among these guys, there might be someone that you get married and have kids with.
Oppa, how could you say such a scary thing?! There is no such guy among here.
You think so too, right? He shouldn't be here.
Of course. Your destined mate is pooping in the bathroom right now.
Oppa!
When I see you guys fight everyday, Sam Cheon Po and Yoon Jin look quite good together.
I want her to do well with Haitai, though.
I told you, it's not Haitai.
It's Sam Cheon Po. Sam Cheon Po. She doesn't quite choose people by their looks.
No, that's not it. She had an argument with Haitai today because of a condom.
Condom? Wow, you guys are already at that stage?
Certainly, X-generations are fast.
Condom is something that Haitai enjoys to buy.
I'm telling you guys, it's not Haitai.
For real, it's not Haitai. With my senses, if it's someone out of them...
The person who's in bathroom has the most potential. Right?
Haitai or Sam Cheon Po. It's like choosing Honam Line or Gyeongbu line (railroad).
I'm Sam Cheon Po.
Me too.
I'm Haitai.
I'm also Haitai.
I'm going crazy.
Hey. I guess that's her habit. Her habit.
What is this? Electricity went out?
I think all the power went out on this neighborhood.
Did the power plant get struck by the lightning?
Mom!
Hey, hey, hey. This is Mari's doing.
- It's M's doing. - Stop it.
It's M. It's M.
Hate it!
Be quiet.
What is this?
I'm not scared of this kind of thing.
Hurry and turn on the light.
Ta - da!
So it's a habit. A habit. She does that to anyone. Anyone.
Did you just find that out now?
Where is the circuit box? I think the fuse went out.
It's fine. Just leave it.
You can't find it because of the rain. The light will come back in a little while.
Nowadays, there are still power outages.
Still, this is good. It's been a while being this quiet.
I can hear the sound of rain.
There should be candles somewhere.
Ah. Seriously. Who did it?
I told you that I'm not scared of this kind of thing.
When I say three, turn on the light.
One. Two.
Here.
When I was living in Masan,
one of my wishes was to listen to Lee Moon Se's "In a Starry Night."
Me too.
Me too, Hyungnim.
I did, too.
Me too.
I know, right?
Wow, we came to Seoul and
get to listen to Lee Moon Se's "In a Starry Night."
Really, congratulations guys.
We country folks, we've succeeded. We've succeeded.
In those provinces,
"In a Starry Night" doesn't get aired?
It was on the show list though.
It does certainly come out.
It's because it's a different person.
From when I was younger,
news and radios,
all of it,
that Wang Jong Geun Ahjussi.
I grew up listening to that ahjussi.
In Suncheon, it was Kang Hyun Joo's "In a Starry Night."
The announcer Kang Hyun Joo did it in Yeosu too.
Ours, Gong Byung Ho ahjussi.
Not only "In a Starry Night,"
but also "The Disc Show of The Night", he did it all.
In Masan, it's Kim Hye Ran's "In a Starry Night" these days.
That Unni is doing the show these days.
Hey. Sam Cheon Po, that kid, must have grown up
listening to Kim Hye Ran's "In a Starry Night" then?
No.
Just by looking at his face,
you can tell he surely doesn't have such sensibility to listen to "In a Starry Night."
This prank is harsh.
Half of half of half of half of two.
This should be enough.
Turn the light on, now!
Lee Moon Se's In a Starry Night,
its second act has begun.
Umm... Throughout Suhdaemun-gu, Joong-gu, and Jongno-gu
have lost power, I hear.
It's not due to the pouring rain but
one of the substations got struck by lightning.
They said it's temporarily stopped running.
Honestly, it doesn't feel that bad to lose power, does it?
And on top of that, if there's a rain falling, you get somehow sentimental,
like it's some special day,
that's the feeling you get.
Everyone, this kind of day is an opportunity.
By chance, if next to you right now is the person you love,
and if by chance you're having a one-sided love with that person,
under the cover of darkness, as much as you like,
I hope that you look at that person's face.
And I'll put in a song for you.
So until the electricity comes back, feel free to
imagine that you're in a relationship with that person.
What does it matter when it's just a one-sided love anyway.
That person doesn't know.
Although it is a one-sided love your doing by yourself,
while the music is playing for those three minutes,
have a happy date.
Now for someone who's having a one-sided love,
for those lonely but happy people, I give to you a present.
"Confessions That Are Not Splendid" by Lee Seung Hwan.
Everyone, continue your unrequited love only until today.
When the rain stops tomorrow, go ahead and confess like this song.
You never know. That person might be in love with you too.
"Confessions That Are Not Splendid" by Lee Seung Hwan ♫ Someday I'll give you an amazing bouquet♫
Half of half of half of half of half of two.
Turn on the light while I'm asking nicely.
I've waited patiently.
Half of..
When I get angry...it's scar...
Scary...when I get angry it's scary!
When I get out of here, you're all dead!
Half of... Hot!
Half of... Ouch, hot!!
What's that crazy bastard been babbling on since earlier in that bathroom?
♫ Wordlessly I'll promise you are the person I love ♫
Half of half of half of half of half of half of half!
Once I get out of here, you're all dead!
Even if it's a joke, there should be a line when to stop.
Half of half of half of half of half of half of half of half of two!
Hey, Jang Gook Young, can't you be quiet, you punk?!
Right now, I'm already so pissed off so that I could die!
Did you turn off the light, Ahjussi?!
Bullshit.
You go ahead and live there forever,
while you're looking for whoever turned the light off.
TURN THE LIGHT ON!
♫ If I can only give a small kiss ♫
♫ In this wide world for a long long time ♫
♫ Among the multitude of people I love only you. ♫
♫ In this wide world for a long long time ♫
♫ Among the multitude of people for having met you ♫
♫ I am so grateful. ♫
Hey, Oppa.
I...
really like you.
I really like you.
That's mine.
"I was wrong for not talking" by Lee Moon Se ♫Yesterday I just couldn't say anything.♫
♫ There is something else I wanted to say. I love you.♫
♫Dazed by the sunlight in your eyes, ♫
Oppa.
♫I couldn't say it.♫
Later, make sure to take off your eye crud.
♫ Because the tears covered my eyes, I couldn't say what I had to. ♫
That's right. In his half asleep state what words could he hear?
Ok, just after thirty minutes.
After thirty minutes.
Is this right?
It was in the freezer.
Yes, that's right.
I froze them over the last few days.
Iced coffee.
Is that right?
But why were you counting so much last night?
You were like, "Half of half of half of two..."
Was there some problem?
It's nothing much.
Ah, by the way, Mother, I will probably take about 15 days (until I come back).
15 days?
You could die of the heat wave!
Don't you know that 20 people died of heatstroke yesterday?
Do you really have to go on this hot day?
It's my goal that I've had for this year.
At 20 years old.
First year of college.
Going on a bicycle trip on my summer vacation without money (working his way through),
I don't care about other things, but if it's a promise, I always keep it.
You haven't left yet?
Where are you going now?
Oh, I have an off-season training.
Hey, is that coffee? Give me one swallow.
No, I can't. I have to drink this sparingly.
I'll just drink it once and give it to you.
The thing I hate most in the world, is
eating food and having my mouth touch where someone else's did.
Hey, who said I'd touch with my mouth...
Cheapskate.
Mother, I'm going.
I hope it rains.
Na Jeong, come eat.
Oh, ok.
That's right.
After I eat.
Let's tell him after I eat.
Hey.
Where are you returning from first thing this morning?
Oh, my mother said that she was coming up,
so I bought a present to give her.
Is that right?
When is she coming? Aigoo, you wench,
you have to tell me when your mother is coming so I can clean up the house a little.
Hey, stay here. I'll go to the market to buy some groceries.
No.
I'm only going to see her face for a moment at the terminal before she goes back.
Also, she's arriving around dinner time,
so I can go out and see her then.
Still, since she's come up to Seoul, it would be nice for her to see the boarding house before she goes.
Now that I think about it, your mom's face we'll count that second,
but I haven't once spoken to her on the phone.
Hey, while she's come up here, tell her to sleep here and go back.
So I can say hello.
Aiyoo, no. No.
She has an appointment tonight in Yeosu so she said that she has to go right back tonight.
I'll speak to her well.
But earlier in the yard I picked up a wallet,
do you by chance know who this belongs to?
Is this Trash Oppa's?
It's not Oppa's.
Look inside to see if there's an identification card.
Oh, there is an identification card.
Then you can go put it in their room.
Whose is it?
Is M on today too?
How did you come here?
I came to buy cigarettes but what are you doing here?
Are you working part-time?
Yes, starting this week.
88 Light is right? - Yes.
Oh but it seemed like Na Jeong was looking for you since this morning.
Why?
I think she had something to tell you.
I see that wench everyday at home. Why is she looking for me?
Hey,
but didn't you say that you are tutoring too?
For one high school student and one middle school student, you're tutoring two students.
Aigoo, our grae grae Binggrae. Has he become a money-grubber?
So after making so much money, where would you spend it?
Have you by chance had an accident?
What kind of accident?
A girl?
Do you think I'm Haitai?
That's true.
I just tried to make a guess.
I'm going. See you at home later.
Sunbaenim.
Here, cigarettes. - Ah.
Hey. You too can just call me Hyung now.
At the end of every sentence, "sunbae, sunbae," enough to raise gooseflesh.
I'm going. Work hard.
At the sound of the beep, leave a message.
Well...
Oppa, you
will be very bewildered,
I know it well.
But what can I do?
My heart is
like that.
Really.
I like Oppa-ya
a lot.
I'll hang up.
Your message was cancelled.
Ok, just like that.
I'm going to drink some water first.
What are you doing?
Have you not seen my wallet?
I saw it.
Give it back.
Give it back now. I'm busy.
I have to leave before the sun sets.
Try saying "give it to me please".
Put your two hands together nicely and say "Noona, give it to me please". Then I'll give it to you.
Are you crazy? Give it back quickly!
Hey, how dare you talk in impolite form to your Noonim?
To such a rude younger brother I should just...
It's weird.
Your face looks so fucking old, but...
how is this guy so young?
Hey, 77 (1977)! You must've gotten this (ID card) just a while ago, right?
Geez, it's still warm (from being just made).
That's... My dad...
He put you on the family register late, right?
Yes.
But hey, what's wrong with your family? How could they register you 2 years after you were born?
Every family has its own problems. Okay?
Give it back now!
Pssh. Your lies are so horrible, they don't even make any sense.
Look at this brave soul.
You're not even born in 1976. You're born in 1977. 77!
Let me see. So it means when I got on my feet,
you finally crawled out of your mom's womb.
Who cares about age these days?
Aren't you the same class as me? Class of 1994.
This under 18 kid. Hey!
That sort of crap might have been accepted in your town, but...
I can't take things like that.
If you talk informally to me one more time, I will grab your tongue and stretch it out. Keep that in mind.
I asked if you understood or not.
Yes (in impolite form).
"Yes"?
Y-Yes (in polite form).
Hurry up and go.
Since it's Sweet 18 kid's first trip, you shouldn't sleep on the street, right?
If you run out of money, call this Noona.
You might get a stomachache, so don't eat too much cold things.
Hurry up and go.
Hello?
Where?
What? What are you talking about? Who's taking time off college?
Yes. A first year medical school student.
Yes. That's right. He's a student in our boarding house.
He's submitted the form for leave of absence but it's missing his professor's signature.
When he comes back, please tell him to come fill it out again.
Yes.
Big news, big news.
What are you doing here right now?
You're not going to tell anyone else, right?
Why are there so many secrets in this house?
Why would I say anything, when It's not surprising at all.
Did you know already?
How can I not now when your eyes follow him everywhere?
Your eyes become different.
Do you know how different the way you look at Trash Oppa is from the way you look at other people?
Was it really obvious?
It's not really obvious, but I thought it was a little strange.
Have you still not confessed yet?
I was planning to confess today.
Do it quickly!
Right now?
You should do it quickly when you've made up your mind. Otherwise he'll get stolen by other girls.
Please leave your message after the "beep" sound.
I-I'll do it later.
Later? When?
After I come back from the bathhouse.
After I come back from bath, I'll confess with a clean body and mind.
That would be great, right?
I will pack my stuff.
Hello?
Oh, you're home.
Who is this? Chil Bong?
Have you arrived already?
Yes. A while ago. What are you doing?
I'm planning to go take a bath with Yoon Jin.
Why did you call?
Is the Coach there?
I have something to ask Coach.
How would Dad be at home at this time?
He went to Gwangju for an away game. Are you calling because of that?
It's something important.
Okay got it. I'm hanging up.
Okay.
Can't he just beep Dad?
Ah, my back...
How many part-time jobs are you doing?
This is the third one.
Did you borrow from a loan shark?
Then did something happen to your family?
It's probably hard enough to just study.
How can you do part-time jobs as well?
Sunbaenim.
Hyung.
Ah, yes, Sunbaenim.
Sunbaenim, I'm taking time off college.
It submitted leave of absence last month.
Nobody knows. My family doesn't know either.
If my dad knows, he'll probably stop sending rent and living expenses.
Therefore I'm saving up money.
Still, I want to keep living in Shinchon Boarding House.
You brat. How can you smile right now?
Then what should I do? It's not like I can go back to my hometown.
I should at least do some part-time jobs to hang in.
Wouldn't it be better to just tell your father the truth?
Tell him that you are taking a leave of absence. That you are just taking one year off.
If my father finds out, he will faint.
It was his life-time dream to send his son to medical school.
If he knows I took time off, I'll be...
dead.
Still, it's such a pity.
You haven't even attended a full semester.
Do you have anything else you want to do?
Hey, answer me. Do you have anything else you want to do?
I don't know.
I don't know what I want to do.
You're not the only one who feels that way.
Haitai, Sam Cheon Po, Yoon Jin and Na Jeong,
they all enrolled based on their GPAs. They didn't come knowing what to do.
You're 20 years old. It's normal that you don't know.
If it was only because I didn't know what I wanted to do, then I wouldn't have taken time off.
I don't even know what I like.
I don't know what I like or what I dislike.
I'm 20 years old, but I don't even have preferences.
I'm so pathetic, right? I've lived for nothing all this time.
Are you being rebellious at such a late age?
Still, you have the courage to take time off.
I'm so scared right now. You know how easily frightened I am.
I somehow mustered enough courage to take time off from school, but...
I'm a bit lost right now.
What should I do for you?
Tell me one thing.
I'll do it for you.
Buy me food.
One meal every day.
I never eat with another guy alone.
Once a week.
Yes.
Oh, and please keep this a secret from the kids at the Boarding House.
Okay. I don't run my mouth easily.
It's a secret.
I'm leaving. See you at home.
Yes.
I'll be right there, I'm on my way.
Oh, this beeper looks familiar.
Yes?
Who is this?
Who is this? Chil Bong?
It's me. Didn't you go on training?
Oh, I'm in Daecheon. It's break time.
Is Na Jeong home?
No, she's not. Try beeping her.
Okay. Got it.
Okay.
Hello?
Is this student Jo Yoon Jin's number?
Yes. She lives here.
But she went out a while ago.
Oh, is that so? Then she's not home right now?
That's right. What are you calling for though?
Jo Yoon Jin's mother is next to me, and she said she arrived in Seoul earlier than expected.
Do you know student Jo Yoon Jin's beeper number?
If you do, please leave her a voice message.
Please tell her that her mother is waiting at the Honam section, seated at the inner-most seat.
Oh, is that so?
I'll beep her right away, so don't worry.
It looks like she has a lot of luggage.
Anyway, please help her so she doesn't have to wait long.
What? You still haven't left yet?
Have you not seen my beeper?
I have.
Here.
Do you think you'd be able to leave today? Just go tomorrow.
I'm a guy that puts my words to action.
I've never broken a promise I've made myself even once.
You inflexible punk.
I wish you luck, my friend. Fighting!
Yes.
Hello?
Is that student Jo Yoon Jin's house?
Yes. That's right.
Is student Jo Yoon Jin at home?
She doesn't seem to be home right now.
Student Jo Yoon Jin's mother has been waiting her for a few hours.
It seems like she can't contact her.
I'll try beeping her.
It seems like she beeped her a lot of times, but she's still not coming.
I don't think her daughter heard the voice messages.
Perhaps is there somewhere she can find her?
I don't know well about that.
Are you not her friend?
We're friends, but we're not close.
Her mother has been waiting for a really long time.
What to do?
I'll try beeping her again.
Yes. Thank you.
Still, her daughter has to come quickly.
The mother here is worried that she'll miss her daughter so she's not eating or going to the restroom.
She's just sitting on the bench.
Anyway, please contact her.
Yes.
Please leave a message after the "bee" sound.
It's me. Where are you?
Your mom has been waiting for you at the terminal for hours.
Where have you gone that you're not even checking your voice messages?
Once you hear this message, run quickly to the Express Bus Terminal in Gangnam.
Your mom hasn't been able to eat because of you.
The message has been recorded.
♫ When I just laughed at your words, ♫
♫ I think you didn't know how I felt. ♫
When you listen to this voicemail, you run to Gangnam Express Bus Terminal right away.
I heard that your mom hasn't had a chance to eat because of you.
♫ everything about you, but I'm afraid of what lies ahead. ♫
♫ Although very many thoughts are blocking you, ♫
♫ To you smiling at me, ♫
♫ I'm thankful. ♫
♫ You still have a pure heart which remains very beautiful. ♫
♫However why do I make everything difficult?♫
♫ I'm clearly going to change the world.♫
♫Think about that. (Think about that.)♫
♫ There are only difficult tasks. ♫
♫ From your warm gaze sent to me from time to time,♫
♫ I turned my face away. Did you feel that? (Did you feel that?) ♫
♫ It's not because I don't like you. ♫
What took you so long?
I almost left without seeing my daughter.
Why did you decide on your own to come here so early?
I came early because I missed you!
I didn't wait for that long.
Do you know how scary Seoul is?
What if something bad happened to you who can't speak?
It's all lies that Seoul people are mean.
I met many nice people today,
so it wasn't hard for me at all.
What about food? Did you eat anything?
Your friend bought Kimbap and brought it here. So we ate that together.
Thanks to this young man, I also had a delicious coffee.
He says he is your best friend.
♫ Think about it (Think about it). There are only difficult things. ♫
♫ You will encounter a new life and you will notice that everybody will look at you. ♫
[Yoon Jin is so bright and cute that she has many friends.]
I imagine sometimes. [Yoon Jin is so bright and cute that she has many friends.]
What if I didn't pick up that call that day. [Everyone is close friends to her, but I'm her closest friend.]
If I didn't go to the terminal, what would've happened to us?[Please stay a night at my room with YoonJin]
Living is a choice made at every moment.
Even if it's a log bridge, you have to make a choice.
Should I go straight or turn back?
Or should I stop there?
What is this?
After all, this point in time that I'm stepping on right now,
is a result of those innumerable choices I made in the past.
I picked up that phone call, I went to the terminal, and
because of those tiny choices cumulatively,
we've become what we are today.
Wow, look at my nice-looking husband.
Congratulations.
Have you written your name too, honey?
No. You write my name next yours.
Jo Yoon Jin.
This won't do.
Hey, Sung Na Jeong. Even though we are not well off, we gave you a double congratulatory money.
So you better live twice as well.
You say something too, honey.
Forget it. It's embarrassing.
Hey, this is what lasts long. Aren't you going to say anything already?
I said I'm not going to do it!
How dare to Noona! Whom are you glaring your eyes like that?
Just say "live well" to the camera.
Na Jeong, I hope you live happily like us.
And
if you didn't go to the public bath with her that day,
my fate wouldn't have turned ugly like this.
My ass!
Hey, I told you that my taking it easy on you because you're younger would only be for a day or two...
Good for you!
You are old! I said don't use violence! No matter which path you choose,
it's normal to have a lingering attachment to the paths you didn't choose.
That's why there's no such thing as a choice without regrets.
That's why there's no such thing as a right answer in life.
You need to believe that the path you chose is the right answer and make it the right answer. That's all.
Na Jeong, isn't it nice to be married? You are happy, right?
I am
really happy too. I can't be happier than this. Living without having regrets on the choices I made.
That is the right answer in life.
You are crossing a river that you can never turn back.
1994
Summer, In front of Yeouido KBS annex Well, don't you have to leave right after the telecording?
You must be really busy...
Bon appetit.
1994 Summer, In front of Yeouido KBS annex Well, don't you have to leave right after the telecording?
You must be very busy...
Enjoy.
Ah, really. What are you talking about?
I waited for this schedule so much.
I thought my neck was going to fall off.
By the way, you haven't aged at all, Oppa.
In my eyes, you still look more handsome than
Sun Dong Yeol (a Korean legendary pitcher) or Lee Jong Bong (another famous Korean player).
I guess first love is serious indeed.
Since you still have the beer goggles on me.
Ah, by the way, you don't seem to gain weight even if you eat like that.
Your body hasn't changed.
Oh my.
Oppa...
Even though my face is like this,
everything below (my face) is still decent, you know.
Plus, I'm a celebrity. I go on a hardcore diet freaking much, I'm telling you.
Nonsense!
How could you say "freaking much"? You are the "Mrs. Dorumuk" (her comedy corner)!
You shouldn't use such language.
Anyway, I thought you've become a total Seoul person but oh my, oh my...
You are still a Goonsan country bumpkin for certain.
It's because I was excited to see you. My mother tongue is readily coming out.
But Oppa, even though I've succeeded this much in Seoul,
I... still have regrets of that day.
Was it the last day of the month?
When you came to my house and
asked me to flee by night,
I should've followed you then.
Then by now, I would've been living a normal life with my children.
I would have lived a nice life as a mother.
I still regret that the most, you know.
Aigoo, hey. You're telling me that to make me feel good, right?
How could a big star (hot celeb) like you, Lee Kyung Shil, who's so significant in Korea, say something like that?
You know there are so many people that cry, laugh, and have fun because of you.
If you would have married me,
all you would have become is a wife of a boarding house owner.
Consider yourself lucky.
Seriously, Goonsan country bumpkin went up to Seoul,
getting into broadcasting where all the great people gather is a great accomplishment,
but more so, among all the top experts like, Joo Byung Jin,
Lee Gyeong Gyu, No Sa Yeon, out of all of them, you're the most successful star.
Aigoo, really.
I'm proud of you, really proud.
Seriously,
Oppa, present or past, you have a talent for making people feel good and lifting their spirit.
This is why, I think I'm unable to forget you still.
Oppa. I'm really envious of your wife.
What kind of luck one should be born with, to meet a husband like you, huh?
That's the thing.
Oppa, is your wife pretty?
Aiyoo, her face is a dog food dish.
Does she only do housework?
I don't know if it's only because she did housework, but she can't even understand outside work.
She can't do anything.
She only has to do housework well.
Aish, HOUSEWORK...NOT... It's because she doesn't do housework.
Her hand is just so dirtily big (making reference to her generous portion sizes when she cooks),
I've never seen her writing a household accounting book, not even once, since we've been married.
Aigoo.
If you gloat about your wife, you think I'll tease you for being a fool, ao
look at him purposefully cursing her in front of me.
Aigoo, really.
Ai, really.
Whom in the world would the superb Lee Kyung Shil envy?
The one who hits the ball well, also throws it well.
If you didn't go into entertainment, and would have just looked after a household,
you probably would have done frighteningly well. Seriously.
Why? Because you're smart. You're "smart."
Aigoo, please.
Anyway, then or now, doing lip service well,
you're the best. How can you speak so prettily?
You wife must really be happy.
Omo.
Let me go over there. - Omo.
Now, are you trying to act charming?
Aigoo, Oppa!
What are you doing?
You are making me feel bad.
I'm not the girl I used to be anymore.
It's 20,000 won. - Okay.
Here.
It's the cake you ordered.
Oppa!
When did you order this?
That's so sweet of you.
Ah, I'm fine, Oppa.
No...
When I had it earlier,
it was sweet so...
I'm going to give it to my wife.
My Il Hwa loves chocolaty sweets.
This is the one I ordered earlier, right?
Yes.
It was nice to see you, Kyung Shil.
Loving without regretting the past choices that I've made.
That is the answer,
and that is always the coolest way to getting old.
Oppa.
I like you, Oppa.
I love you.
Let's eat watermelon, Na Jeong. Tell Trash come too.
Okay!
Alright, after we eat watermelon...
Let's say it after we eat watermelon.
It's more sentimental at night...
Oppa!
Watermelon.
Let's tell him after we eat the watermelon.
Hello.
Oh, is this Na Jeong?
Is this Chil Bong?
You're still up. What's up?
Why, is there something wrong?
No, I was just wondering what everyone was doing...
Kids on the 2nd floor are already sleeping.
By the way, did you talk to my dad?
What?
What about the coach? Why?
Did something happen?
What is this?
You were looking for my dad earlier.
Right. I was looking for him.
Is the coach back?
Yes, he's in his room. Should I put him on the phone?
No, no.
Now I think about it, it's little late.
I will call him again tomorrow.
Will you? Alright.
Well, Na Jeong.
What?
Do you have something to say?
Well, you know...
Don't sleep with your fan on.
Wow, really. I'm not a kid.
That's a common sense.
Don't worry. I will set the timer.
By the way, don't kick off your comforter and sleep well.
Oh, okay. Good night!
Okay.
After eating watermelon.
Alright.
Tomorrow is good, tomorrow.
Let's confess tomorrow.
Tomorrow morning.
With a clear head.
Go! (Fighting!)
What's this? Did we just lose power again?
Ah, seriously... Did somewhere get stricken by lightning again?
Go find some candles.
We've bought some and they should be somewhere...
Hey, Jo Yoon Jin. Stop drinking.
Hey, how many bottles has she drunk?
Summer of 1994, which was unusually hot and unusually bizarre.
What finalized that summer was
not Sung Na Jeong's Patrasche,
nor was it the romanticism of "In a Starry Night" (radio show),
but it was a drunken frenzy of one Yeosu woman.
Hey, my friend addict,
have you used the condom?
Ah, that wench. Look at the way she speaks.
Aren't you going to shut your mouth?
Hey, what's wrong with buying a condom?
I understand you now, everything.
Two days ago.
At the rack (news stand) right here,
It Hardwind or such...
I saw you buying a magazine with pictures of fully naked girls.
You bastard. You still had some conscience.
You were hiding it between the sports newspapers so no one could see it.
You were leaving with it like this, like this.
Hey, you see? You're addicted, I'm telling you.
T-that addiction.
Hey, it's okay.
That's a disease.
It's not your fault.
N-n-no.
N-no, no, no.
It wasn't for me.
This bastard,
he's crazy about it so- - Hey, you punk!
Don't get the wrong person!
I really hate those things because they are dirty and filthy.
Hey!
You should call him Hyung.
Why are you talking informally?
And
this little bastard!
If you start looking at such pictures so early,
you will not grow. (superstition: having a "dirty" mind will prevent from growing tall)
Look at those pics when you become an adult later.
You guys didn't know, did you?
That kid, you know. He's 77 ("born in 1977").
So, he's 2 years
younger than us.
Wow.
Isn't it really ridiculous?
His face is looking shit like that...
You are not a 76, but a 77?
Yeah!
So, his age is
18, this year!
Yeah, he's 18! Sweet 18!
Really? Is that true? You're '77?
Hey.
You go get your professor's signature.
Hey, this kid you know...
He submitted a request for leave of absence from school. 3 months ago.
How could a guy not have any patience?
You should've hung in there a bit longer.
Now when your father gets here,
you're dead.
You drank a lot, Yoon Jin.
Let's go sleep now.
Let's go to bed now. Get up.
O...PPA!
Trash O-PPA!
Aigoo. You've made these kids all bloody... (by revealing their secrets)
Get up, Yoon Jin.
Get up before I rip off all you hair. Let's go to sleep. Get up.
Gosh, darn it!
You bad person. You mean bastard.
Oppa.
Can't you recognize Na Jeong's feeling for you?
That Yeosu lady, who's always quiet.
When she's drunk,
there's no such thing as a secret in this world.
I'm telling you, Na Jeong likes you,
truly,
really likes you.
A little while ago,
she was holding onto your picture like this,
she was patting it,
wiping it, and kissed it...
Na Jeong really likes you, Oppa.
But!
Because Oppa doesn't know how she feels,
she told me that she was suffering to death.
That wench.
She's a really pitiful wench.
Sung Kyun...
Back.
Stroke this Noona's back already.
You know...
My mom says she really appreciates what you've done.
It's because my mom
can't speak-
♬ Can you believe it? ♬
♬ That in my dream ♬
♬ You are a princess under a spell ♬
♬ Even though ♬
♬ there are always ♬
♬ numerous difficulties ♬
♬ in my gestures towards you ♬
♬ However... ♬
Camel!! - Camel! -- Camel.
Micky Mouse! - Tiger!
I can't see it. - Two of them. I can see them, Kangaroo!
I told you don't do it, didn't I?
I said don't do it!
Are you a beast?
You shut your mouth and just watch it.
Why are you doing this to only me? You think I'm the easiest?
♬ The story I want to tell you ♬
♬ Do you really have to hurt ♬
♬ the feelings of the person that likes you ♬
♬ to keep your pride ♬
Hey, you said that you are free the day after tomorrow, right?
Tomorrow's game got cancelled.
Anyway, you must come, okay?
Alright. Okay, take care.
Jeong, I'm going to do the laundry-
