I'll be moving in with her.
To her apartment?
Yes.
You need more room with two children.
We'll stay with Dabin's grandfather and aunt.
With them..?
The grandfather and aunt...
You're going to live in their house?
Uh-huh. Exactly.
Hyongi.
Hyongi, are you insane?
Mom.
Inok.
Pardon me. I should go.
Inok.
- I'll take her home. - Hyongi.
- Let go.
What is it with you? You say that and just leave?
Let go.
No. See Mom first.
I said let go.
You're nuts. Seriously mental.
You know what you just did to them?
Or is your chick all you care about?
What? "Chick?"
Yeah, chick.
- Over some chick... - Watch your mouth.
You watch YOUR mouth.
You done?
No?
Dad.
Out! If your mom means so little to you.
Out!
Sorry.
Hyongi.
Leave him.
Your mother was right after all.
No wonder she was against it.
Why... why did he..?
Hyongi of all people..?
Was it our sister-in-law?
What sister-in-law?
Inok.
I'm sorry. I was wrong.
I didn't mean for it to come out like that.
I'm sorry. Truly.
Go back in.
I'll take you home. Come on.
Just go. That's the best thing right now.
Tell your parents you were wrong, you'll never bring it up...
No.
I was wrong to spring it on them like that.
But my mind is still made up.
It's what we'll do.
Hyongi, please.
Don't cry.
It will be okay, it really will, Inok.
Inok.
I said to go, didn't I?
Mom, lie down. I'll get a blanket.
Get some water.
Okay.
Mom, lie down.
Mom.
Hun, I'm sorry. I should have listened to you.
Where's the blood pressure monitor?
Leave it alone. Just go.
Hun, take this.
I'm fine.
Fine, she says.
Dad.
Here we go.
Wish she be okay?
Where's Hyongi anyway? Did sister-in-law...
Did he take her home?
He's not human.
You see the look on Mom's face?
What kind of man can see that and walk away?
One jerk like me is enough.
Is that a joke?
No.
I'm as shocked as you, that's all.
Where you going?
You're back.
Let's talk.
What were you thinking?
Did you think at all?
She can't live without Dabin.
Her father said he would rear Dabin, told her to get out.
So?
She can't take Dabin, so you have to go there?
I realize you see the world different from the rest of us.
But there's such a thing as common sense.
It's her late husband's father.
This some Buddhist self-immolation?
Living with her late husband's father?
To me he's Inok's father and Dabin's grandfather.
That's just stupid.
And your own parents?
They were speechless, or didn't you notice?
Who cares, as long as you're happy?
Is that it?
Yes, parental love is stronger than filial love.
I grant you that.
But what about Aram?
How will you explain it?
Suddenly her dad has two fathers?
Wake up.
There's no coming back from this, you see that?
What can I do?
Give her up over Dabin?
You going to abandon your folks?
I'm not as filial as you.
But nobody, man or woman, could make me give up my own folks.
How is she?
Who knows.
She told me to hush so here I am.
I swear.
Some night, huh?
Want a drink?
I could use one. Drown out this pain.
Who's to blame?
I should have been tougher on him when he ran away from home.
Sons watch their dads.
It comes back to me.
What?
Hyongi acting different is one thing, but you too?
Like a different person.
I'm the same me. Shut up and pour.
He just runs off cause I tell him to?
He's all, "Yes, sir, yes, sir" to my face...
while stealing the clothes off my back?
Sure, live at your wife's house, Mr. Fancy Pants.
See if I care.
He's back.
Here?
I told you.
You're the sky to her.
If you turn your back, her sky falls.
I never turned my back.
You did today.
Saying you're moving there was like a thunderbolt.
To Dad, too, and me, and Seungi.
Look, I know it's not easy to hear this.
But you're the pillar of this family.
If you shatter, we all shatter.
And this family will fall.
I still don't see what I did wrong.
And I don't see why the family is treating Inok like a criminal.
Just remember this.
The day you move in there...
she's dirt to us.
Why?
Because we know you're the least selfish person on the planet.
She didn't suggest this.
She was against it. She still is.
It won't matter in the end.
It won't change the fact she made you do wrong.
Wrong?
What's so wrong about living there?
Fine.
Look at it this way.
Suppose you and Inok move in with Mrs. Jong and Jin?
You and she go take care of your late wife's mother.
Is that normal?
Would that be fair to her?
With them..?
The grandfather and aunt...
You're going to live in their house?
Hyongi, are you insane?
The number you have dialed...
"Where are u? Home?"
Dad, stop. You'll get drunk.
I've been a lousy husband.
I've got three boys.
And I'm a lousy father.
I'm good for thing.
So I drink.
More.
What good is he?
I thought he was something.
Never a harsh word, never a cross look.
A boy to make a father proud.
Now he smacks me upside the head and drives a stake in his mother's heart.
And we give our blessing.
And he wants to run off?
Like our boy has been stolen from us.
But he came back.
That's something.
Whose side are you on?
You're right.
He's not one to go against his folks.
No one cares for his parents more.
True. Mr. Filial Piety.
I bet he's already sorry for what happened.
You can forget it.
Medicine? Are you sick?
No, just tired. Preventative.
Get some rest.
I'll drop off Dabin on my way.
No. I need to go out.
Early lessons?
Yes.
When did you get in? We were all asleep.
It was pretty late.
The dinner go okay?
Yes.
That's that then.
You were so late, I was worried.
Did Dad say anything?
Oh, just have a good day, that sort of thing.
Inok.
Yes.
Yes, Father.
You have Dabin's gym clothes?
I got the other stuff, but can't find them.
Okay. Come along.
Her color is off.
She's tired, I think.
Oh? Then she needs vitamins.
She had some.
You drop Dabin off.
Way ahead of you.
Let's go, Dabin. I'm taking you today.
'kay.
Goodbye.
Bye. Be safe.
- 'kay. - Let's go.
Feeling worn out? You should take some time off.
It's not that bad.
Did something happen at Dr. Yu's house?
Yes. I should get ready.
All right, you do that.
You have everything?
Yes.
Aram.
Dabin.
Hello.
Off you go.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Bye.
Dabin, come on.
Well, then...
Wait.
How is she?
Would you mind if we get a coffee?
Mingi... Mingi!
Yes.
Your patient is here.
All right.
He's in a lot of pain.
On my way.
Try to persuade him.
You're the only one that can convince him not to move out.
The whole house is in an uproar.
Mom won't come out of her room.
Dad won't even talk to him.
And Dad even hit him.
This is a guy that never even gave our folks cause to yell at him.
I never imagined this could happen,
much less actually seeing it.
I'll be right back.
You have an 11 o'clock. Mrs. Lee.
I'll be back in time.
Inok.
Where were you?
Getting a coffee.
Inok, please.
What's going on?
You and Mingi...
Later. I've got a lesson now.
I said I've got a lesson.
Just tell me what he said.
Welcome.
- Hey. - Please.
Go.
You talked to Inok?
Not intentionally. I ran into her.
You just happened to drive her to a coffee shop?
I didn't drag her there.
She couldn't exactly refuse.
So? Get to the point.
What did you say to her? Well?
You don't know?
The whole house is in an uproar.
And Dad even hit him.
This is a guy that never even gave our folks cause to yell at him.
I never imagined this could happen,
much less actually seeing it.
The other day you said you envy me.
That I'm cool.
So I did. I meant it, that's what I thought.
But not anymore.
All you care about is her.
Forget Mom and Dad.
Abandoning your own over some woman.
Am I wrong?
Tell me if I am.
Fuss at me, yell at me.
Say whatever you want, I'll take it.
But...
not her.
I won't have you hurting her.
Don't. Please.
Do something for me.
Take time to think this through.
Hyongi.
Why are you up? You don't feel well.
My back was getting sore.
What's this?
Milk. Here.
You haven't eaten since last night.
This isn't like you.
Cause this is killing you.
Dream on. You'll have to wait.
Drink it.
Why if you want me dead?
Keep up your strength while you're alive.
Milk is good for what ails you.
What about work?
I can't go with you like this.
I'm fine. Chop-chop.
We'll lose customers.
Why?
Mr. Jo is there.
Bye.
Let me know if you change your mind.
You go. I don't like the mountains.
You'll be sorry if you don't come with me.
Your boss isn't in?
At home today.
I see.
Phone for you.
- Okay. - Goodbye.
- See you. - Bye.
- Hello. - Uh-huh.
Well...
Do you have a few minutes?
Your daughter-in-law... is getting married?
It's all right.
I understand why you didn't mention your son had passed.
I'm sorry.
Are you all right?
Your daughter-in-law can't be helped,
but your grandson, that can't be easy.
I had thought of insisting on rearing the boy when she left.
But they want to live with me.
Pardon? How's that?
She can't live without her boy.
You know who she's marrying?
Yes. My friend told me.
They say she won't move out.
Dr. Yu wants to move in with his girl.
To rear Dabin and look after me.
It's absurd but I can't help feeling grateful.
Jin.
You asleep?
Yes, Doctor.
No, I'm taking a break.
Oh? We can do that?
Thank you.
Yes. I'll swing by tomorrow.
Sorry. I know coming by makes you uncomfortable.
I have nowhere else.
Sit.
Let's go out.
I feel cooped up, even more so here.
Not far. Just for a drive.
So I can breathe.
Okay?
Let's take Jin.
We'll pick him up and get something to eat.
Jin, I'm at Mingi's.
We're going for a drive.
Sinyong.
Fine. Great.
I'll tell my mom.
Have fun.
Okay.
Mm-hm.
Happy?
Let's go. It's better all around.
That Yuri girl hasn't left yet?
That's perfect for you.
Especially for your coloring.
Just perfect.
Oh?
Wear this in the mountains, the men will be swarming.
It has matching pants. Want to try them on?
Give it a whirl.
I'll get the matching size, one moment.
"See u tonite. Show up or else."
He was looking at photos of the two of you.
From before the accident, I mean.
I wonder what goes through his mind?
Does he blame be for what happened?
Sinyong.
Missing the old days with you?
I'm off.
Little sweetie.
You haven't left yet?
I just got back.
Then work the full day.
I came home for lunch.
It's no fun eating alone.
Oh, my hero.
Suit yourself, see if I care.
What, I should go hungry cause you won't eat?
You going out?
Yes, to see Mirim.
What for?
What? Feeling faint?
Yes.
Then you can't go out.
I'll make lunch. Eat it and lie down.
Go bring Boram over.
Boram?
I'm so upset.
I just want to see him.
Listen to you.
Never mind.
Okay, I'll go.
Call Mirim for me.
What for?
She's busy at the shop all day.
Just eat something.
Call Seungi.
He can do the driving.
What about your lessons?
I asked Cha, he's doubling up for me.
Where you going?
Tell you tomorrow.
Who's the boss here anyway?
It's me. You free?
My dad called, he...
I'll tell you in person.
Where? I'll meet you.
Is he..?
- Hello. - Hey.
You..!
Dad.
Why did you bring her here?
I told you. This is the only way to get Mom to leave Mirim alone.
I told you that won't work. Trot her out all you want, it won't work.
That's my problem. Just leave it to me.
Get out of the way, huh?
Just don't interfere.
Interfere? When did I ever?
See Mirim and pick up Boram..?
Back again?
Just getting in?
I got some bowls...
Who's that bum?
Mirim is being all hee-hee with this guy and you do nothing?
Dad.
Stay here a minute.
Where you going?
I haven't tried it myself.
But I'm told in Japan they like these square bowls.
They do. I've tried them.
Oh? How was it?
The ramen or the bowls?
Both.
The ramen wasn't for me but I liked the bowls.
Taste is paramount, of course, but presentation matters, too.
Can't argue with that.
So I'm considering different bowls for different menu items...
You don't look like you're here to eat, so..?
One moment please.
Doing okay?
Over there.
I'm leaving.
We were in the area and I wanted to show my girl around.
You've seen her before.
At the police station. My ex-wife.
Yes. Hello.
If that's all, get out.
Okay. That's all.
Oh.
We set a date.
For our wedding.
The Saturday after the divorce is final.
I should go.
Oh?
Yes, I have an appointment.
I'll see you again soon.
To pick up where we left off.
Okay.
Goodbye.
Let's go.
You first. I want a word with Mirim.
Whatever. Bye.
See you.
Who is he?
A customer.
You sure?
Who cares?
It's not the first time they met.
But so much the better.
What?
Just call Mom and tell her no go.
What?
Say Boram is at the nursery and Mirim wouldn't say where it is.
You want me to lie?
It's not a lie.
Ask her yourself.
She won't tell you.
Fair enough.
So where's your girlfriend?
What do you want?
It's true.
True? What is?
It looks to me like you're still fond of him.
Are you?
Why would I tell you?
It's a little late, having set the date and all.
But I'd like to clear the air.
Not love, per se, but perhaps some lingering affection..?
No.
No?
No. I wanted him dead before the divorce.
That hasn't changed.
Happy?
Yes.
Thank you.
I know it's no fun, my being here.
Thank you for talking with me.
Well, then.
What? Second thoughts? Regrets?
Nah.
Nice job. 'preciate it.
Me, too.
Why?
For using me.
Sorry.
Me, too.
This is a show to you. But I'm serious.
Sorry, but I am.
Songhi.
I have a weakness for the simple ones.
The more I see you, the more I know you,
I see how simple you are.
Who? Me?
Mm-hm. I'm definitely going to marry you.
Shame.
Tonight was the last time.
So you say, but your mom says different.
I doubt very much she's going to let Mirim go just yet.
Does she like sushi?
Grandpa.
There's my little girl.
What are you doing here? I'm about to leave.
I hated being cooped up all day.
Hungry? Did you eat?
Aram and I had a bite.
You?
Of course.
Your dizziness? Better?
I hadn't eaten.
It's better now.
Glad to hear it.
Has 301 left?
I haven't checked yet.
If they stay they've got to pay.
What? You going up?
I'll put a bug in their ear.
Aram, stay with grandpa.
Yes'm.
Mingi.
Mingi!
What's that?
Who knows?
Mingi.
Someone's here.
Mingi?
Coming, sheesh.
Who are you?
What are you doing in someone else's apartment?
Who's the gram?
What? Gram?
Don't make fun.
G-R-A-M, who are you.
Gram!
It's just dialect, local slang.
What's up?
That.
Old Lady Gram.
Where are you?
Picking up some clothes. Why?
Huh?
Calm down.
Watch your blood pressure.
I should have shown them the door.
They caught me off guard.
Just as well.
Kids today are scary. Even violent sometimes.
They're posers, the lot of 'em.
Obnoxious ones at that. Obnoxious drunks.
Easy. You'll wake Aram.
Oh, it's Aram.
What took you so long?
Sorry.
Well? Who are they?
Friends of a friend. I let them use it for a birthday party.
Why do they need your place?
It's cheaper and more fun than a restaurant.
Who are they?
Bunch of low-life posers, that's who.
Go on then. Before they trash your place.
Yes, sir.
You said you weren't coming back.
Was your appointment cancelled?
You.
What?
What have you been up to?
Nothing at all.
That's it.
What?
You find a place?
Yeah, one, but it's too pricey.
I'll find something.
I'll help pay for it.
Just hurry and get out.
Relax. I want out, too.
No light. He's not home yet.
We should go.
After you promise.
Whatever happens, I won't let you go.
Promise me the same.
Promise you won't let me go.
That you won't run away.
Inok.
Just go.
Not until you promise.
I can't.
I don't believe.
I do. Just don't let me go.
That's all I ask.
You can't?
But you can.
Inok.
I'm sorry.
And me?
You're all I want, only you will do.
What about me?
It's scary.
What is, sweetie?
Nana's mad, Grandpa's mad.
Dad's mad.
I'm too scared to eat.
Aram.
Eat.
Just say you won't move there.
That's all it takes.
- Nice work. - You, too.
- Goodbye. - Thanks.
Your hair will fall out.
They have dandruff shampoo, you know.
What now?
You forget?
The show must go on. Remember?
Mom.
Whatcha doin'?
What do you want?
I only have afternoon lessons today.
It's nice for some.
Come on.
Why?
I'm taking you some place nice. Come on.
What is it?
- C'mon. - Let go.
Trust your youngest.
You're going to be a whole new you.
Let's see now.. winter clothes...
Tell me what it is first.
I told you. I'm taking you some place nice.
Please, Mother.
This way.
This is a nice place?
You don't' like it?
Mother, he says you like sushi, so you'll love this.
The chef here is well-known.
And I talked to him especially.
Suit yourselves.
We've met but never been formally introduced.
If you'll allow me.
I'm young and inexperienced, I know.
But I will try to be a good daughter-in-law.
With your help.
Better than your usual.
I know, right?
I'm hungry. Let's order.
Only your father is alive?
Yes.
Brothers?
None. It's just me.
Taking a census?
We're half-way there.
Don't be smug.
I'm just making conversation, that's all.
I see... huh?
They have to-go here?
Yes, Mother, sushi rolls, too. Shall I buy some?
I'll get the car.
Where's your car?
Like oil falls out of the sky?
Not to mention the payments,
much less the oil.
Tell Mirim that.
Mom, stop already.
What about Songhi? Think about her.
You think this will make me give up on Mirim?
If Mirim remarries, maybe.
Until then, forget it.
Mom.
Did you go out?
Who cares? It's paid for.
To get this for me.
It's just you and Seungi now.
I no longer have an eldest.
Mom.
All we have left is our house and ourselves.
We've got to look out for each other.
Mom.
Eat. I know you like sushi.
You, too.
I ate already.
Where are you washcloths?
Why?
It hasn't been cleaned for days.
Look at this. Filthy, just filthy.
In the bathroom.
This is good.
Enjoy.
You're early.
Ah, well... Oh, yeah, score.
Out.
Tightwad. I only want a little.
Out.
Stingy. Share.
Out.
I'm here till I find a place. You could at least share.
- Out. - Let go.
Mom.
You.
- What's up? - Old Lady Gram.
Who is she?
You deaf?
Who is she? Is she living here?
Mom, I can explain...
Explain how exactly?
Are you insane?
Letting some tramp live with you?
Like your brother wasn't bad enough?
Now you, too!
You came just for this?
Not just this. It was on my way.
Eat before your classes. Take your vitamins.
Okay. You're leaving?
Don't see me off. See you at home.
Okay. Be safe.
Mm.
Who have we here?
It's been forever.
Yes.
Please.
Kimchi soup and a drink.
Of course. Sonmi, kimchi soup.
Ma'am.
Here to see your daughter-in-law?
Yes.
Drinking this early?
Something wrong?
No. I haven't eaten today.
I like a drink with my meal.
I see.
You look better today.
Things are working out then?
Get the mail when it comes.
You can't let it build up.
Would it kill you to bring it in?
Would it kill you to say thank you?
It's been a while.
Yeah, it has. Well then...
Mind if I..?
Another glass.
You're drinking?
I'll pay for my own, don't worry.
No thanks, I'm good.
Where is he?
Who knows? He up and left. Restroom, maybe.
Shall I call?
No. Tell him I went home.
Yes'm. Goodbye.
I'll come to the point.
We won't have our eldest son living in your house.
No matter what hold that girl has on him.
Easy, now.
"Hold?"
What else could explain our boy leaving his parents?
Come here.
Come on.
My son says he's going to move in with this guy after the wedding.
Huh?
Surprised, huh?
Cause it's ridiculous.
Look here.
YOU look.
I'm not scared of you. C'mon and look!
My daughter-in-law isn't that type of lady.
What type is she?
The type that gets her new man to look after her late husband's daddy?
Oh, you're a piece of work all right.
So you'll miss her, so what?
Is that any reason to get her to coerce my boy into taking care of you?
It wasn't me.
Your son asked, he begged me.
Don't lay it on him.
He would never say that, never!
Now who's laying what on whom?
Try to think.
YOU think. You dumb-jerky-stupid-dumb.
Now, now, settle down, boys.
You heard him.
Mr. Doctorate wants to steal my boy.
And he yelled at me.
Wh-what? What's that again?
Who hit on my sweet daughter first?
Hit on..?
Outside. Now!
Sure, shorty, you got it.
- Don't.. - Let go!
- Please. - Little 'tard.
Please. Sit down.
C'mon! You scared? C'mon, Dr. Dumb!
You think I won't?
Please, sit down, please.
Don't fight. Think of your daughter.
You know Dr. Yu's number? Call him, scoot.
Trouble downstairs.
You should hurry.
You got a call?
What call?
Our fathers are...
Here, I'll tell you as we walk.
C'mon, c'mon.
Hands off, hothead.
YOU'RE a hothead.
"Hit on?" My son hit on your trampy girl?
Father, Father, don't do this.
Come inside.
Father, please. Let's go home.
You taught kids? Some example you are!
What? Who challenged whom?
Who said whose daughter is a tramp?
Father, Father.
We won't!
We won't...
We won't get married.
Inok.
So there's no need to fight.
Let's go.
You! Stealing my boy to replace your dead one!
Father.
This is your fault.
Getting all worked up over some girl.
- Ouch... - Father.
- What is it..? - Come on.
What a poser, look at him.
How so?
At his age, what a faker.
This way. You all right? Here.
Just sit down here.
Inok.
Inok.. Inok... Inok!
Going out?
Yes.
Be safe.
I'm sorry, Father.
No, I'm the one who's sorry.
Don't be.
Listen to your mother.
Be nice to your grandmother.
Yes, sir.
Off you go.
Inok.
Inok, where are you going?
Let's talk.
I have nothing to say.
Inok.
You heard me.
I'm not marrying you.
Sorry. Goodbye.
Inok.
Don't do this.
Don't do this to me.
