- Hello children! - Hi!
Mr. President and the First Lady are coming to the Nokjiwon.
Let's greet them with our applause!
This is Alpha.
The President and the First Lady has been taken to a safe place.
There's no danger.
It was a kid's firecracker.
Come with me.
- Huh? - Come with me.
Kim Ju-Yup, I can verify her identity.
Just let her go
We've confirmed that there's no danger
We never know
Yeo Bong-Soo. Born May 27th, 1982 at Jungsun, Kangwon.
Blood type O.
Her father passed away when she was young.
Her mother died while giving birth.
She came to Seoul this March, shortly after her grandmother died.
Her current residence is Seoul Jongno-gu Gahwe-dong #12 7-15-2.
She lives with me.
She works for the Mugunghwa cafeteria, and today's her first day of work.
Anything else?
Mr. Pervert.
What is it?
Try this.
What is it?
Can't you tell? They're rice balls left over from the event.
I didn't want to throw them away.
I'm not a trashcan.
Why are you giving me trash?
Then I'll take it back.
Don't take back what you've given out. That's dirty.
- Did you make this? - Yes.
- Why? Do you think it's poisoned? - No.
But you might've spat on it.
Did you?
Forget it.
What are you doing?
Do what?
Let me go! You really are a pervert!
Let go! Let go of my hand!
Your hands feel like a pine tree.
Don't you use lotion?
Why do you care if my hands are like pine trees or not?
You're so weird.
I don't care.
If I do, that'll be a problem.
Bye.
Put your shirt up. I'll put the PAS on for you.
Over here, and here.
What is it?
Eat.
You didn't eat yet, right?
Are you offering a remedy after making me sick?
Forget it! Eat it yourself and get into more trouble.
If a day goes by quietly, you're not Bong-Soon Yeo
You'll be Bong-Soon Nam
Thanks for doing that for me
Do you think I'm your servant?
Do you think I'm on duty 24 hours a day to solve your problems?
Why are you doing this to me?
You're working here because you want to see me suffer, huh?
I said, I'm sor...
The most dangerous place anywhere in the world is where their president is.
If that wasn't a firecracker, I would've fired at you!
I almost fired at you, you hillbilly!
I'm sorry.
If you're so sorry, please get out of my face.
I see you at home, I see you at work, and I see you in my dreams.
You're out to kill me, aren't you?
Do you dream about me?
What?
Well...
Nightmares and things like that.
I'll be there soon.
I need to go.
Bye.
That's so cheesy.
Hey kid! Can you take your glasses off for me?
That's me!
Is this really you?
Hi, I'm Hyo-Won's aunt.
I came to escort you guys. Let's go!
I'll take that for you.
But my daddy said I need to carry my own stuff!
But I want to do it for...
Don't make me repeat myself.
Math, science...
We got those two taken care of.
What should I get for Korean and English?
Where is she?
Wanna take your sunglasses off? It's dark.
Do you know my daddy?
No, but I know your mommy.
My daddy doesn't know I'm here.
Grandma and I made it a secret.
Maybe I shouldn't have.
It'll be better to see my daddy than seeing you.
I miss him.
Don't you miss your mommy too?
But my mommy doesn't know me.
She doesn't even know my name.
When did you get here?
About thirty minutes ago.
A comic book?
Here.
I don't care if you read the preface or the table of contents.
Start reading today.
This is the GED exam outline and the test dates.
And this is a list of cram schools.
You can go to a cram school, too.
Hey kiddo! Oki doki?
Thanks a bunch.
Can I study with you?
- You said you'll teach me last time. - Of course.
I'll make time.
I promise I'll study really hard.
So I can pass on the first try.
You promised, kiddo.
Promise?
Hi, mom.
What's up?
What?
Hyo-Won is here?
- Hyo-Won! - Grandma!
My granddaughter's here! You pretty little thing!
Hyo-Won!
Let's see how big you got!
- I missed you. - Really?
Hyo-Won, come to your grandma.
Give me a kiss.
Okay.
Thanks for today.
I'll get going now. Have a good night.
Good night.
Oh, my darling Hyo-Won.
Uh...
- What are you doing here? - That's what I want to ask you.
- Well... - Do you know where this is?
This is the Presidential residence inside the Blue House.
It's off-limits for everyone, including the staffs.
Even Presidential guards like us cannot come in without permission.
What are you doing here, then?
Please explain.
Daddy!
Hyo-Won!
It's so nice to see you again.
My little baby!
You should've told me you're coming!
You can't do that to me! That's not fair!
Oh, my little princess. You're even prettier than before.
- Hi. - Hi.
You're still here.
Say hi.
This is my son.
Say hi, Joon-Won.
- This is Presidential guard Nam Bong-Gi. - Oh.
How come you guys aren't saying hi?
Nice to meet you.
I'm Nam Bong-Gi from the family guard team.
Chang?
How did you...
Director...
What kind of a senior greets his younger colleague like that?
Who is he?
You know, the crazy dude in Kangwon.
How are you doing these days?
Your parents told me to give their Regards to you, that they're doing well.
Director Lee, why are you giving him regards on behalf of Chang's parents?
You still haven't decided yet?
- Let's go to an amusement park. - An amusement park?
But I don't have time.
Make some time for her.
She's been asking for a long time.
She doesn't care about the rides.
She just wants to spend time with her daddy.
You never spend time with her.
Come over here, Hyo-Won.
I'll make sure I make time for you this time.
I promise.
Leave Hyo-Won here for a while.
I'll take care of her.
No way!
Ji-Soo misses Hyo-Won.
I don't want to go home!
I want to stay here, grandma and grandpa.
You should stay here, too.
Hyo-Won.
I think it's because of what happened last time.
She was too shocked.
Are you mad at me?
What's wrong?
How can you make a fool out of me?
What happened?
Chang Joon-Won, I mean the President's son.
I guess you met him at the Presidential residence and got thrown off.
How come you didn't tell me?
You should have.
If you did from the beginning, or at least somewhere along the line...
... I wouldn't make a fool out of myself.
I wouldn't be this mortified!
We will unite in mutual trust for one another.
We will preserve the public peace as if it was our life.
We will protect our honor and maintain our dignity.
Guard Nam Bong-Gi, would you have told me if you were in my shoes?
The two of them are very sensitive about their son.
They don't want the public to tear him into pieces.
Their son's life is like walking on thin ice, thanks to his extraordinary father.
And as you know, his wife has a problem, too.
We are like shadows without a mouth, without eyes.
We're only here to serve them as if we were their mind and body...
... so they can be safe and sound.
- Hey hillbilly, I'm coming inside. - Okay
What are you doing? What's this?
Are you studying for a GED exam?
I'm taking a high school entrance exam first.
When I pass, I'll go to college.
Okay, study hard.
But that doesn't mean you'll pass.
Shouldn't you go to a cram school?
How can you study English, math, science, and Korean all by yourself...
... with that pea brain of yours?
You think you'll pass?
If you pass, I'll take my hands and...
Eat with them. Yes, I'll eat with my hands.
Don't worry.
Mr. Chang said he'll come here to teach me at least twice a week.
Who's coming to teach you? In here?
Where else can I go to study?
Did Dr. Chang tell you something?
- Like what? - Like, about himself.
You know, about his family.
What his parents do for a living... Things like that.
No, he didn't tell me anything.
Why?
Nothing.
You two seemed to get along well.
We do get along pretty well.
Do you think so too?
What's going on between you guys?
I thought you guys were going out.
We are going out.
I mean, we will, one of these days...
What? Are you out of your mind?
Hey hillbilly, do you like Dr. Chang?
You know, not just liking him, but really?
Yeah, I like him.
I'm crazy in love with him.
No! No way!
I said, no. I am warning you!
Hey Bong-Gi.
Stop studying!
Who do you think you are?
Why do I have to put up with this shit for you?
You son of a gun!
You crazy piece of shit!
Hey Chang!
This is all your fault, you son of a gun.
I don't know how I got these bizarre vintage folks found their way into my life.
Ji-Soo.
- You need to brush the inside, too. - Say ah.
Very good.
You need to brush the inside, too.
I don't want to go home!
I want to stay here, grandma and grandpa.
You should stay here, too.
I think it's because of what happened last time.
She was too shocked.
Ji-Soo! That's enough.
Watch.
Your turn.
Good morning!
What's wrong?
Are you sick?
Don't touch me!
Don't you dare lay a finger on me!
Bong-Gi..
You hair! Tie that hair of yours!
- My hair? - Hurry up and tie it!
Look at the floor! The water!
Can't you see your hair's on the floor?
You made this fuss all because of a stinkin' strand of hair on the floor?
Do you know how important a strand of hair is?
Every part of our body is passed down from our parents!
How dare you call that a stinkin' strand of hair!
What kind of a daughter are you?
Get it off me!
Get it off! Take it and scram!
Why are you getting in my face again?
You shouldn't have brought that duck with you!
What else can I do?
She was bored to death at home.
- She even has a fever. - Whatever!
She's about to barf!
Stop!
Peel the potato skin off first.
Next, peel the carrots. And lastly, peel the onions.
Finish everything in an hour.
What?
All this in an hour?
Rookies are supposed to begin with handling ingredients. Got that?
Okay.
I first came here in the dead of winter.
It was somewhere around minus 8 or 9 degrees.
That's when Ok-Hee over there told me to peel thousands of ark shells in an hour.
I had my hands in cold water in the dead of winter until they turned blue!
Considering what she's done to me, I shouldn't be this nice to her.
See? I don't even have fingerprints anymore.
Where did I see her?
I think I remember, but then again, I don't.
Now begin!
All I need is this little thing to do the job.
You don't know anything about working in the kitchen, do you?
It'll take forever to peel all with a spoon!
The customers want you guys to refill the napkins whenever we're out.
And the curry is too watery.
The vegetables...
Three, two, one!
We're down to the last second!
I can't believe this!
You're the bomb!
Please take care of my granddaughter for a while.
I wanted a female guard, but Hyo-Won asked for you.
I think she likes you.
Is that okay with you?
Yes.
She's very sensitive, so please take good care of her.
Yes, Ma'am.
Starting from today, I'm...
It's okay, Ji-Soo. Eat your medicine.
Are you sure you're not gonna get kicked out of the hospital?
Who died today?
I told them that my already-dead uncle has died.
Your poor ancestors...
You're on, Ji-Soo!
We're now about to hear our dubbing artist Ji-Soo's masterpiece!
Applause!
Ji-Soo, that Coral's voice is you!
That's your work, remember?
Listen, Ji-Soo.
Listen carefully. That's your voice.
Say that line to me, Ji-Soo.
You always said it before you got sick.
Your next line.
Say it.
It's Marlin's turn to speak.
You remember how we met?
Well, I try not to.
I remember. 'Excuse me, miss, can you check and see if there's a hook in my lip?'
'Well, you gotta look a little closer because it's wiggling'
Don't you like me? But I'm so hot!
What's broken?
The rice cooker is.
It worked fine this morning, but it's not working now.
I opened it, but the rice was uncooked.
Not all six are broken, right?
Only one's broken, but another one's burnt.
You burned what?
You burned rice? No way!
How can you burn rice?
Because it was her first time.
Miss Yeo Bong-Soon! Was it you?
Yes. Sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I told you not to make her do it! Rookie training, my butt.
You've been messing around the entire morning with her!
The people are going to be here soon.
We can't serve curry sauce only.
What should we do, Jin-Kyung? I mean, Nutritionist Noh.
You see those potatoes you worked hard to peel?
Do you know how much they weigh? It weighs 40kg.
Do you know how much that costs?
It costs $60!
What are you going to do about the carrots and the onions?
How can we have curry rice without the rice?
We'll serve half the curry and replace the other half with something else.
But we don't have time to make anything.
I'll announce that there is a 30 minute delay.
Hurry up and make the dough.
- We have the kelp, right? - We have kelp, but we're short on flour.
- The flour is coming in at 2pm. - What?
I'm dead.
Potato soup!
Why don't we make potato soup?
That's the only ingredient. I need to make it.
Potato soup?
It's not much, but it tastes good.
I can make it fast if you let me.
Since this is my fault, let me handle it.
She cooked well at the cooking contest. Why don't' we give her a try?
But it's a new dish. What if people don't' like it?
They don't like wheat flake soup either.
Do you want to serve curry sauce only then?
You better not screw it up.
If people complain about the food, you're gonna get it.
I'll stall 30 minutes, so start serving in 30 minutes. Got that?
Yeah.
Yes.
I was just there with the team.
The factory uniforms are light gray.
Don't wear a bluish necktie tomorrow.
Get a reddish one with about 128 saturation.
No need to thank me.
Hold on, the First Lady is calling. I'll call you back later.
This is Ki Hyung-Do. Hi.
A picture of Miss Hyo-Won?
Okay.
Sure.
Hey Hyo-Won.
Why did you cry while watching that cartoon?
- Was it that sad? - Everyone else calls me Miss Hyo-Won.
What? Miss?
How I can call you Miss when I'm much older than you?
The world ain't what it used to be, and...
Miss.
Miss Hyo-Won.
We meet again.
I heard you transferred to the family guard team.
Are you escorting Miss Hyo-Won?
Miss?
Yes.
What business do you have with Hyo-Won?
I mean, with Miss Hyo-Won.
The First Lady wanted me to take some pictures of Miss Hyo-Won.
Sure, go ahead.
Hey Hyo-Won.
Miss, take a picture.
Give me a mirror.
Here you go.
Move this out of the way.
No, put it back.
Mr. Nam, can you pick that flower for me?
Forget it.
Just come back
You're in the way! Move!
To the left, left.
To the left.
More to the left.
Go back! Get behind the tree.
I can still see you. Move to the right.
Just get out of here.
What's wrong?
It's sick, right?
Yes, Ma'am.
How?
But I watched and watered her whenever I should.
I thought I took good care of her.
I think you recently changed pots.
As you can see, this kid has a thick root, which means it has a lot of water.
She's withering because her roots are rotten.
You moved her in a pot that can't remove water...
... and thought you were taking good care of her by watering her.
I see.
Even the same kind of plants should be cared differently...
... because they're all different.
The ones with thin roots need more water, the thicker ones less.
The instructions like, 'once every three days' or...
... 'once a week' is to make it easier on the humans, not these guys.
You'll know if you think about how they would feel.
But you know how selfish people are.
The water you gave her was probably painful for this little kid.
You got in a big trouble today, honey.
You fixed the room light last time, and you're fixing my wife's plant today.
You must have magic hands.
Yes, I mean, no.
Bye.
Mr. President.
Yes? Do you have something to say?
No, I don't.
Sorry.
What is it now?
Give this to the head chef.
- What's this? - Potato soup.
What?
What's this? It's not even cooked.
Why give it to him?
Tell him to cook it for the President.
For whom? Who is it for?
What's wrong with you?
Hear voices in your head again?
Did Paul from Paul's Miraculous Adventures come again?
If not, how can you ask me in broad daylight to give this food to the President?
We should do something about you!
Let's go to the hospital after work.
You need a thorough mental exam.
I mean, living isolated in the hills can make a person go nuts.
It's possible.
I'm sure there's a cure. Let's go with good faith and confidence.
Please, Bong-Gi.
Please give it to him.
I'm goin' nuts, really!
I'm out of here, Yeo Bong-Soon.
- To tell you the truth... - The truth? What truth? What is it?
Shouldn't tell you really...
Joke? Is this a joke?
Hold on.
This is a secret that I'm only letting you know.
To tell you the truth, my father is the President.
