Fool's love.
Are you okay?
Don't be nervous.
You're okay, Honey!
Honey, fighting!
Are you perhaps... coming out of the delivery room?
Why are you crying...
Did something happen?
In there... In there...
In there... What?
A baby was...
- What about the baby?
A baby was born.
A baby was born with a strange cord attached.
How could that be?
Shouldn't you be spending Christmas with your family? Your new family must be born by now.
[Haeryeong-myun, 615 Sangmeori, Yeosu]
Are you awake?
You should sleep a bit more.
I'm hungry...
You're hungry?
Do you want to eat something?
Bungeo Bread. (The fish-shaped bun)
Bungeo bread?
I want to eat bungeo bread.
I'll walk.
It's going to take you awhile.
It will take you over 30 minutes.
How much would it cost to get to Mangwando?
Around $10, I guess.
It's because I don't have the taxi fare...
My little sister...
My one and only...
My lovable...
My lovable sister.
And mom and dad.
Did I...
Did I come out of there, Mom?
Did I come out that laboriously, Dad?
Shouldn't you be spending Christmas with your family...
Darling, why do you keep touching my belly? It tickles.
Don't touch my belly...
I told you to stop touching it!
Ah! Who are you? Who are you to touch a person...
Who are you? Who are you?
Who is it?
It's me...
A robber! Was it a robber?
A robber!
Ho Goo..
Ho Goo... - Oppa!
Mom...
My name is Ho Goo.
It was difficult, wasn't it?
Kang Ho Goo.
Let's use a condo(m).
Here. Eat this.
You know you easily get bones caught in your throat.
Thank you, Honey.
[By chance... did his comic get cut off?]
[I dunno.]
[Ah... could it be... because of his "some" girl?]
[What? A "some" girl? What "some" girl?]
[Ah ah!]
[By chance... the octopus from last time?]
[Dad, sssht! Mom doesn't know...]
[What is it that I don't know?]
[Did Ho Goo get dumped?]
[No, no!]
[I guess his webtoon work just isn't going well...]
[Yeah, it did seem he was having problems.]
[Speak. What is it?]
[No matter how I see it, it must be a girl problem.]
[He got dumped, right?]
That's not it.
[You heard everything?]
My comic wasn't cut off and I didn't get dumped.
I'm just... thankful.
The fact that I came out of Mom's stomach... I'm thankful and amazed.
And the fact that Dad is my dad...
And that Ho Gyeong is my sister...
Just... the fact that we're a family... I'm thankful.
That's why I cried.
Ho Goo...
What's with the calendar suddenly?
Nothing. I was just wondering if they suddenly changed Mother's Day.
Mom, I was just on the phone and...
Ah, my daughter with make up on...
I can never get used to it no matter how many times I see it.
Okay. What did Tae Hee say?
You were right about the comic getting cut off.
They barely persuaded the manager and if the viewer's and subscriber's responses are good,
he'll extend their contract.
Really? - It seems it must have been hard on him lately...
Seeing how he was holding onto you and crying in the middle of the night...
You know they're both mental anyway.
It doesn't seem so, though...
What doesn't?
That kind of crying doesn't just come out like that...
It was the kind of crying that only happens when one experiences something big.
Something big? Like what? For example?
For example... when a baby is born?
What?
Your dad cried exactly like that when you two were born!
He embraced my stomach and bawled his eyes out.
My stomach was hurting but I had to work so hard to console him.
So right now you're saying Oppa went and had a baby?
Mom, you're usually sharp as a knife, but when it comes to your son, you over-estimate him, you know that?
I know, right? Our Ho Goo isn't that skilled, right?
But he could be a virgin wizard.
Exactly!
No one can defeat him in that department.
So that's definitely impossible.
But Mom... you're not going to work like this, right?
Of course not. What are you talking about?
I have to wear this, too.
Ok Ryung's house.
Why does this keep falling off?
But Dad... why don't you use your name, too?
I mean, the house sign
and even when you answer the phone, you're like that, too : "This is Kim Ok Ryung's home".
When we eat out, you always put the reservation under Ok Ryung, too.
It just seems like our house is always using Mom's name.
It's because it belongs to your mom.
Actually this is a secret I was going to tell you when you got married...
Woman are much greater creatures than men.
Really? - Of course!
Women are prettier than men, aren't they?
Look at your mom. Even when she drinks that much, she's pretty the next day.
Look at Ho Gyeong. Even if she's not pretty, she can transform herself.
And above all... they can give birth.
If you see a child being born once, then, just like me,
you begin to think that you should always listen to the woman.
That's... really an amazing moment.
That's right. It's really great.
The feeling when you cut the umbilical cord, really...
It's indescribable. When the umbilical cord just gets cut off...
The baby was crying, and what should I say...
It's as if a baby angel...
Is crying out like a chiming bell.
The small hands are like small wings...
That's right. That's it.
It's exactly like that. But how do you know that?
What?
How do you know the feeling of cutting an umbilical cord?
I saw it in a comic book.
You know it comes out in Elise's Flame. Elise also has a baby.
I'm going.
Ho Goo...
Here. - What's that?
I have money. You use it.
What do you mean you have some? It looked like you only had $10 in your wallet.
Did you see?
Don't use that all on cab fare. I want you to buy whatever you want to eat.
And buy a lot of the alcohol you want to drink. Okay?
Okay, dad. I'm leaving.
Use it well.
I'll use it well.
Hello. Please give me $20 worth of Bungeo bread.
Yes.
No, no. Please give me $30 worth.
Yes.
The little mermaid-like athlete Do Dohee, has not shown herself in a few months...
Hello! Yes.
Have some of this.
It's rumored that she has disappeared...
I'll eat it well. - Yes.
Hello.
Oh, did you just go somewhere and come back? I didn't see you, so I thought you'd left.
Where would I go? I just dropped by my house.
Have some of this. It's warm bread.
Oh my, you keep giving us things... It's Bungeo bread!
Hello, please have some.
Thank you. - Yeah.
Hello.
Do Do Hee, why don't you pick up your phone? You want to die?
Do Hee, let's talk this out. What did I do wrong?
Do Do Hee, I'm asking a fellow athlete,
where are you?
Hey! I'm not going to give you any more living expenses!
If you don't want to starve to death, you better come crawling back!
Are you up? How are you feeling?
How are you?
Not bad.
What's all that?
Ah, this. Bungeo Bread!
You said that you wanted to eat this yesterday in your sleep.
But why did you buy so much?
Ah, this? I gave some to the nurses and for the doctors.
And the ladies next to you, we can greet them and share some.
Greet them and share?
These are the warmest. It's warm, quickly have some.
I'll be right back. - Where are you going?
I was going to give some to the nursery nurses, and our baby-
Whoa.
I mean... Do Hee, your baby...
Anyway, I just wanted to go see the baby.
They said that visiting hours are set. I'll be back.
Kang Ho Goo, why would you look at the baby?
Huh?
Why would you go look at that baby?
Well... it's...
I could just... go see him.
You can't.
You can't just go look at him.
Have you forgotten?
You said you'd only be by my side until the baby is born.
You said you'd only do that much, as a friend, because I could need a guardian if there was an emergency.
You said that, didn't you?
Yeah... I did.
So...
So now I...
should go, right?
Okay.
I'm really going.
Thank you, Ho Goo.
Thank you, really.
The kindness you gave me...
I'll be sure to repay it to you.
Sufficiently so you don't feel bad,
I'll repay you.
Are we really not going together?
When will you go?
Actually, I...
have to have surgery.
It's something really small, but I guess I have to get rid of it.
W-w-why did you come?
I wanted to ask you something...
W-w-why did you come?
I wanted to ask you something.
By chance,
when you said we should go to Yeosu together...
was it because of that?
There... it seems there's an obstetrician there...
Why did you go there?
Why there?
Why did you go all the way to Yeosu?
I wanted to get rid of the baby.
I couldn't do it in Seoul.
Why?
Because it's a baby that shouldn't exist.
Why?
Because it's a baby I do not want.
Why?
Because it's a baby I hadn't planned on having.
Because I had to hide it.
Because it shouldn't be born.
Because the moment I was told,
my life crumbled.
Because it was a mistake.
Was the other side (father) also a mistake?
Just...
They were just mistakes, both of them.
Have you gotten answers to everything you were curious about?
This... this isn't Bungeo bread you can carelessly throw away.
This... I didn't throw it away.
It's bungeo bread...
bought with the money my mom and dad earned with difficulty.
Just because you don't want to eat it, or don't want to see it,
it's not Bungeo bread you can just throw away and get rid off...
It's not that kind of bread.
I told you, didn't I?
Even though someone like you wouldn't understand what kind of meaning this has.
And you...
don't repay it to me.
Because I don't want to see you again.
Having a child without being married, is it illegal?
Is that a crime?
The plaintiff who had been working all that time so sincerely,
just for the reason that she gave birth to a child, got fired from her company.
According to Clause 1 of Article 23,
the defendant can not fire an employee without a legitimate reason.
The plaintiff, for the sole reason that she is a single mother,
was fired.
And it was only one-sided at that.
A barbaric method like this is blatant discrimination between a man and a woman.
According to Clause 1 of Article 2,
this is absolutely unacceptable.
Therefore, we request that the plaintiff's termination be revoked.
Defendant, please make your statement.
I have a few things I will now try to confirm with the plaintiff.
Plaintiff?
This is your personal information.
Is that correct?
Yes.
Unlike the personal information given by other employees with children,
the personal information you gave, as it can be seen here, states that you do not have children.
Did you not know that this was false information?
I have an objection. - Sustained.
On online job applications for most companies, if someone puts in that they are not married, they do not get to enter whether they have children.
The problem lies within the system that is programmed not to ask about children in that kind of situation.
It was not the plaintiff's intention.
I am not sure of that.
This could have been rectified if Human Resources were notified right away.
The problem is not the system, but the plaintiff's lack of common sense.
Lack of common sense?
I mean, is it sensible of you to be saying this right now?
Everbody quiet down.
Plaintiff?
Because of the fact that you are a single mother...
you were once treated unfairly, right?
Yes.
He was my manager at the time and he verbally abused me.
So because I felt it was unfair, as I was answering,
because we both felt wronged, the transaction couldn't be accomplished in the end.
What kind of words were said, specifically?
"You can not even manage your own body,
how could you manage this big business?"
"How could I make any kind of transaction with such a promiscuous woman?"
The plaintiff has caused immense damage to the company because of a personal issue.
This incident is reason enough for a termination of contract.
What do you mean 'personal issue'?
He's the one who verbally attacked me first.
Even if it was so, that does not change the fact that the company was harmed because of your actions.
Exactly like your online application which is, understandably, impossible for you to fulfill,
the responsability for the bad outcome is yours.
What are you saying?
Then are you saying that the plaintiff lacks common sense and is at fault for what happened?
It is common sense that having a child outside of marriage...
is not the norm.
Your Honor...
The attorney is attacking the plaintiff's character by using logic as an excuse.
How could that be common sense?
How can such words...
that have nothing to do with law come from a lawyer?That's not law!
The law? Did you just say the word "law" in front of me?
The law is about maintaining order in the absence of justice.
That is the basic foundation of Korea.
A man, a woman, dating, marriage, childbirth, those things! Are the foundation of our country.
The simple fact of having giving birth to such a child shows complete disregard for our nation's foundation.
If you adhere to the laws strictly, then the plaintiff must not be shown any mercy.
People who disrupt the system must be weeded out.
In that way...
order is maintained, logic is understood,
and society prospers. Do you understand?
Crazy bastard.
Then, following our society's common sense,
are you saying I should not have had the baby and just gotten rid of it?
Why are you...
asking that to me?
You really did very well today.
How could you... That was very impressive.
I know.
That's that.
But secretary Lim Gong, you need to lose some weight?
Pardon?
When you were hired, I remember you were definitely 45 kg. But now,
you appear to be 50 or 51 kg.
You know that this is sexual harassment, right?
Do you think it's okay for someone who says he's a lawyer, that he knows the law, to sexually harass his employee?
It is not sexual harassment for a designer to ask his model to lose some weight.
What? What does that mean?
As a lawyer, could you maybe explain so that I can understand?
Do you know why I hired you?
How would I know why I was picked? The hiring attorney would know that.
You probably chose me because I'm a pushover and work overtime well.
I chose you because you were pretty.
Pardon?
Aigoo... saying that so suddenly.
Lawyer, you're really...
I don't need a secretary who works well and has good skills.
Because I can do that myself. Instead...
I needed a face that was easy on the eyes and someone who could control the atmosphere.
A young and somewhat beautiful woman
Pretty, but not a Gangnam beauty. That's the reason that I hired you.
If you gain some more weight, it does not seem like you would be pretty. So I am hoping you will go on a diet.
As your boss, this is an order.
Please try to remain this mediocrity.
Without fail.
Byun Kang Chul, you asshole...
I will kill him. I will kill him.
I'm going to cut you up into tiny pieces!!!
You should hate on the person, why are you hating on the shoe?
And you chose an expensive one at that...
Ho Gyeong, what do I need to study to pass the bar exam? Should I study everything?
Why the bar exam all of a sudden? - I'm going to become a lawyer.
No, a detective. No, a judge!
I'm going to become that and destroy that psycho for good.
You can't. Absolutely not.
I will take care of the revenge. Nobody else can do it.
I will take revenge on that bastard.
I have to do it.
Where are you going?
Since high school, to pay back my enemy, I have waited til this day.
I, Kang Ho Gyeong, have waited for that bastard for a thousand years.
And now I will take my revenge on him for a thousand years.
Customer...
you cannot do this here.
Good. I am perfectly prepared.
Do not worry. The offense you suffered today, I will avenge it.
Yeah. Thanks.
But what happened between you and him in high school?
I mean, how do you know him?
My brother went to Mansae High.
It would be strange not to know about that cocky jerk. He was the school president.
Then, does he know you too?
Of course... he can't know me!
I've endured all that pain of grinding my teeth just for this day.
Did you go down a lot?
I took 3 private classes. My dad said that if I couldn't get accepted into Seoul University that I had to go into the army.
I don't want to go to the army early.
You just have to do well next time.
What about you?
I...
I went up a bit.
Really? By a lot?
Where? Where is it?
(292. Kim Tae Hee.)
Here. (297. Kang Ho Goo.)
Ah... that...
Ah, so you moved up in the ranking.
I focused on language this time and went up.
And wham, I moved up.
If you combine yours and my score,
it doesn't even reach his score.
Even if he's the school president,
isn't a bit too much to have a driver?
No, it's fine.
That's Byun Kang Chul, after all.
So what?
Since you transferred not long ago, you don't know this,
a helicopter would come and pick him up and nobody would say word.
Even the head master can't say a peep to him.
Aren't you leaving?
I have to wait for my sister. She forgot her key this morning,
I have to wait for her.
Oh, she's coming.
That's... your sister?
It looks as if your results did not turn out as good as you had thought.
Yes.
Well, sometimes one does well on exams, sometimes not...
What place did you get?
I'm number 10.
Aigoo!
If you're 10th in the whole school, you're a genius. A genius.
If my son was even 100th in the school, I'd wish for nothing else.
I'm not 10th in the school, but 10th in the country.
Ah, really?
Hey, you! You should look in front of you when you walk!
You almost lost your balls there. Watch where you're going!
Can't you pay attention?
Hey!
Ho Gyeong? Are you okay? You're not hurt?
Balls? Balls?!
BALLS?!
Hey, hey... Kang Ho Gyeong.
Hey! Where do see balls?!
Hey, foreign car! Hey!
Hey, Kang Ho Gyeong.
What bastard's car was that?
What bastard's car was it?
Tell me! Tell me! - Tae Hee!
Balls, balls, balls!
Saturday 6:00. Itaewon Hamilton Hotel. What do you think?
Yes!!
Give me some food.
You're home early. - Yeah, the surgery finished early. Give me some food.
You said you would come home late from work so I have not prepared it yet.
So prepare it quickly and give me some food.
Okay. Just wash up.
What is that?
Why do you have that kind of thing?
I needed it for a thesis.
The subject is about the human perspective of using condoms.
We found there was a slight difference in behavior when condoms-
I get it. Give me some food.
By chance...
If you need some, you can take some.
What use would I have for it?
What use could it be for? For that which condoms are used for.
Exactly. So what could I need it for?
Where are you going? - To make dinner.
When is Kang Chul going on his arranged date?
I think it's this weekend.
What is going on, that you're interested in Kang Chul's relationships' matters?
They're having Manager Oh's grandson's 100-day party this week.
They're already having their second child there.
So I should get some grandchildren quickly too.
But you don't like children.
It's unpleasant. Unpleasant.
Manager Oh and Manager Jung,
do you know how many pictures of their grandchildren they upload?
Every time I look on Kakao Talk...
I feel like I'm being left out so it irritates me.
Just wait a bit.
We'll catch up to them soon.
What is that punk Kang Chul doing at that frisky age?
Instead of working late, he should just go make a baby somewhere.
Darling!
That's such a despicable and vile thing to say!
I was kidding.
Give me some fruit.
Shouldnt you spend Christmas with your family...
Secretary Im, I want a record of all the IDs registered as 'X' in my mobile messenger.
Pardon? Why?
It's for evidence.
This is urgent, so have everything ready by tomorrow.
Yes.
Ah, and...
the friend that came to find me...
Give me her number.
A friend? What friend?
The one who came to look for me.
My ex girlfriend.
Dohee.
And you...
don't pay me back.
Because I don't want to see you ever again.
Do you want to delete? Yes No.
Your cellphone dropped over there.
Contact deleted.
Ah, it really got deleted.
It's deleted...
No... I was going to delete it anyway...
It's for the better.
It turned out well.
Mister, what is that?
This is Bungeo bread. Have you never seen it?
Ah! I saw that in a fairytale book.
The thing people from the old days eat.
From the old days?
Mister, could I try some?
Yeah.
Wow, it's Bungeo bread!
Please give me one. - Oh, ok
Please give me some.
Me, too.
Give me one.
Let's eat these together!
Yes?
Hello?
Yes. I'm Kang Ho Goo.
What?
Yes. I'm Elise Do's guardian.
I'm her shift nurse, I'm calling because Elise is not feeling well.
I was wondering if you were coming tonight.
Hm...
I don't think I'll be able to go tonight.
Ah, really? Then come tomorrow.
No. Uh...
I don't think I'll be able to come to the hospital anymore.
Ah, really? I understand, then.
But... is her condition really bad?
Is it an emergency situation...?
No, it's not that.
She's just feeling the after-effects of post-delivery and is cramping a bit..
Because if you massage her stomach, it will help her feel better.
Ah, yes.
Then, I'll hang up.
I ate all my fish-shaped pastry.
It's yummy!
Honey, it's still early.
Should we play some Go-Stop?
Should we?
Okay! -Deal!
Let's do it. 10 cents per point.
No way, 30 cents.
Fine.
Coin purse! Coin purse!
Okay.
Why, why? Aren't you playing with us?
I'm tired. I'm going to sleep early.
Just play once. So we can play 2 vs 2.
My goodness!
Are you hurt?
So clumsy.
There, another one fell underneath your foot.
Hey, what is this?
A condom.
Is this the first time you're seeing one?
Am I asking because I don't know? I'm asking why it's in your bag?
I mean, they were leftover after the experiment. It would be a waste to throw away.
That's why I brought it back.
You, this is confiscated.
Why are you confiscating my stuff?
And realistically, I'll have more reason to use it than you.
Hey, Kang Ho Gyeong! Where would you need to use this?
Hey, a woman doesn't know her body is precious. If they know you're carrying this around,
men will think you're really easy! You're so bold!
Oppa!
Where did you get this kind of dog poop kind of nagging?!
Hey, Kang Ho Gyeong!
What? Easy? Bold?
The ones who don't use these are the easy and bold ones, not me.
You can't even praise me for being prepared.
What? Praise?
And you must be too immature to know this,
but they made this to be used. To be used.
When men are too selfish and too bothered to care,
it's for me to use to protect my own body.
A barrier! Protection! Shield!
Hey, Mom, Dad!
What is she talking about?
Is this something a woman should say?
Yeah, why are you carrying those around in your bag?
Of course, I should carry it around. I don't know what kind of situation will come up.
Do you want me to be weak and foolish?!
No, that can't be. You should be prepared.
Or should I keep saving myself all my life, with no use for this, and just grow old and die alone?
No. Why are you like this?
It's not like you're wasting electricity or water.
Life's too short to not enjoy it.
Mom!
So, Oppa...
Just take care of yourself. Don't become a selfish bastard and
just take one.
That's right. Take one.
An occasion to use it will probably come someday.
Why? You don't like it?
Do you want strawberry flavour instead? - No!
I... don't like strawberry flavor.
Oh please. We know you wanted one.
Excuse me...
Please give me more painkillers.
Yes, Madam. Please wait a minute.
Bungeo bread!
You said you wanted to eat some yesterday.
You said we friends. You did.
Then... couldn't I stay by your side?
I could pay for the taxi fare.
And I could buy you some socks.
I could just stay by your side.
When my friend is having a baby.
I'll just stay by your side.
We don't even know if something dangerous could happen.
It's scary. If you're alone.
Ho Goo...
Oh, you came?
Yes. How is she?
Has she gotten better? Is she in a lot of pain?
I just came back from giving her painkillers.
Since she just got them, she should be fine for a few hours.
Ah, yes.
Thank you.
Ah, just wait a little. She has a visitor.
A visitor? Who?
I don't know. But the atmosphere is a bit...
Anyway, just wait before you enter.
Are you in your right mind?
If I was in my right mind...
what should I have done?
If you were in your right mind!
If you were in your right mind, you should have listened to me.
Listening to you...
You're saying I should have gotten rid of the baby?
Yes. You should have gotten rid of that child.
It's my baby.
Now you don't have a reason to say to do this or that.
That's right. I don't.
Because I'm not responsible for this.
Yeah.
You're not responsible.
It's you who came to find me that night.
That night, that!
When I asked you to use it...
you're the one who refused.
So?
So is all of this my fault?
I don't use that kind of thing. I have never used it.
And I'll never have to use it.
Yeah.
You never do anything that would inconvenience you.
I did the best I could.
Go.
It has nothing to do with you anymore.
Yes. Of course it hasn't.
It should have absolutely nothing to do with me.
Dad said that...
a man should never act rashly.
Don't lose your cool. Don't jump to conclusions.
Just think about the facts. The facts.
Because it's a child that shouldn't exist.
You should have gotten rid of that child.
It was just a mistake, for both of us.
I am not responsible for this.
When I put everything together...
That guy, that bastard...
He's obviously the dad.
Then... the baby...
The baby... - It's you who came to find me that night.
That night...
Hi, Grandma!
That night, that!
When I asked you to use it...
you're the one who refused.
I don't use that kind of thing. I've never used it.
And I'll never have to use it.
Because you'll never do things that are a problem for you.
I did the best I could.
No, no, Kang Ho Goo.
This is just your imagination.
Hello? - Calm down. Let's calm down.
Do not act rashly.
Let's stay collected. And calm.
First, let's quietly figure out this guy's identity.
I don't want to. I absolutely do not use that kind of thing. - And then, furtively...
What would I do with a condo?
It's useless and annoying. I absolutely hate condos.
I told you I never use a condo. - Hey, you bastard!
What is it? Who are you?
Why don't you use a condom? Why?
What are you talking about?
I'm telling you to use a condom, you trash-like bastard!
My name is Ho Goo. Kang Ho Goo.
Fool's love
The culprit always returns to the scene of the crime.
Who in the world is this guy?
He seems familiar.
And the culprit is definitely one of our high school alumni.
As expected. I knew it was Byun Kang Chul.
Why are you here?
Who is the baby's dad? Who's the dad?
