Cutie Pie
Episode 44
What’s with your expression?
Does it imply that you’re confident about these pictures?
Yes.
Yes?
You’re so presumptuous.
Over these terrible pictures?
What do you mean?
You don’t know how hard it was for me
to get on my bike this morning to take these pictures.
No matter how hard they were to take,
if you can’t move the person who’s looking at it, it’s trash.
I suppose at your level, they might look good to you.
Take these over again.
Do you want an iced coffee?
No, I don’t want any coffee.
Then how about a cola?
I don’t want any.
How about a Cider?
Orange Juice?
Energy drink?
A vitamin drink?
What are all these?
It’s so you can drink this and get in a better mood.
I heard you were scolded by my brother.
Do you think that will make me date you?
Not a chance...
You don’t have to. Just drink it.
Here.
He stomps on my pride and I can’t stand it!
What makes your brother so great?
It’s not that he’s great. He’s just acting like he is.
Here, have another one.
Do you really want to date me?
You’re not joking about it?
Does it seem like I’m joking?
Then I’ll date you.
So will you free me from your brother?
Take care of the money I owe him!
You’re being serious?
If I take care of that for you, you’ll date me?
Mmm... The eel today is really great.
- It’s good? - Yeah.
Eat a lot of it, Oppa.
Joon, you eat a lot of it too.
Here you go.
Ha Ryong, too.
Why do you smack your lips so much when you eat?
That’s so annoying.
I didn’t make that much noise.
Aren’t you worse at it than I?
Eww, lick your spoon clean.
You’re going to put it in the stew like that?
Why can’t you be more careful?
Why are you being like this? We’re trying to eat.
What did I do?
Even among family, we should be careful.
What’s wrong with Mom?
She’s more sensitive today than usual.
It’s because of the two of you, because you’re acting so sweet.
What?
What does that mean?
You know she’s not over being upset about you getting married.
So tone it down a little.
Why is she jealous over them when she has me?
Ok Sook!
I’m sorry... so sorry.
I did wrong.
Oh, Dad.
Were we being that obvious?
We’re already toning it down around family.
Right?
I know.
It’s because she doesn’t like me yet.
And it’s not like we can fight with each other for her sake.
What if we do?
What? Why would we fight?
Not fighting for real but if we pretend to fight,
it might ease some of Mom’s hard feelings.
So you’re saying we should put on a show for Mother?
Do you think we have to go that far?
If we need to, we should for the sake of keeping peace in the family...
Do you think she’ll fall for it?
She probably won’t.
Let’s give it a try, Oppa.
I’m not confident about my acting skills but I think it’s a great idea.
Okay?
300,000 won?
I don’t have that much money on me.
What? A doctor doesn’t have 3,000,000 won?
Huh... oh... um, that is... I put all my money into locked savings.
And it’s been a while since it was pay day.
What should I do?
Even if I scrape together everything I have, it only comes to 1,800,000 won.
Oh, that’s right! Manager Jung!
Didn’t you say Manager Jung’s family is wealthy?
Please ask her to give you a loan.
Manager Jung?
I don’t think I can do that...
Oh, Hyung... Please do this for me.
Send her a text message first.
Ask her to meet you tomorrow.
Hurry, Hyung!
I really don’t want to do this.
You’re home?
You just wait a little while longer.
I’ll come up with the 5,000,000 won soon and free Im Ba Ni.
What are you talking about?
She said she would rather die than continue to be your teacher’s aide.
Hey! Do you think this work is a joke?
If she hates it that much, tell her she can quit right away.
She doesn’t have to pay back the 5,000,000 won.
Hyung! You mean that, right?
She doesn’t have to pay that money back?
Don’t go back on what you just said!
All right!
How great is this?!
I got it done without any effort.
It’s sent.
It already got sent.
Are you finished yet?! Are you done saying everything?
What did I do? Why are you yelling?
What’s that noise?
It’s coming from Mom and Dad’s room.
It sounds like they’re fighting. What brought that on?
What are you saying?
I just asked you to stop snoring and you get this mad?
Wouldn’t you be mad?
I’ve been snoring all my life and if you tell me to stop snoring,
are you telling me to leave or what?
Stop exaggerating.
I’m a light sleeper so I just asked you to be a little more considerate.
So how can that be taken as my telling you to leave?
Fine. Just because you earn a lot of money, you’re using that as power over me.
Right. You’re great! So, you’re a doctor!
Why are you twisting things around?
Are you a donut twist or something?
Hey! Hey, you! You!
You really want to take this further? Is that it?
What’s the problem?
What’s making you act like this?
Mom, he just started a fight over nothing.
Stop it! With all the family here... You come out of there.
I had no idea he was this petty.
He’s no better than a sardine!
It’s not a big deal for a man to snore. Why are you making such a big deal over it?
I don’t know. Now that I live with him, I’m finding a lot of things I don’t like.
He’s petty. He talks too much.
How can a man have fits this often?
I can’t say anything to him.
Yeah... seeing how small his ears are shows you how small minded he is.
But what can you do now?
You have to just deal with it.
That’s not so easy to do.
It drives me crazy. Absolutely crazy...
It’s so annoying that it drives me crazy.
Yeah... we’re both the same in that if we don’t like something, we just don’t like it.
Are you thirsty? Should we have some beer?
Should we?
Okay, let’s do that.
I made some Pollack Sprout soup but I don’t know if you’ll like it.
- Yu Na and Joon, eat up. Okay? - Yes.
And Kim seobang, you eat a lot of it too.
Yes, Mother.
Here, put it closer to you. Enjoy it.
- Madame Song. - Hmm?
Did something good happen today?
No. Why?
You seem to be in a really good mood.
Where’s Father?
I need to ring that bell. How bothersome to do it every meal.
Hello. I’m here.
Young Kwang is here.
Hi, Noona.
Hi.
Ba Ni is probably putting on her makeup right now.
Oh, really?
Really?
The Professor really said I can quit being his assistant?
Yeah. Do you think I’d joke with you so early in the morning?
It’s just that it’s so hard to believe.
Anyway, you have to keep your promise.
Since I freed you,
you’ll start dating me now.
Tomorrow is the weekend. What should we do?
Should we go to the amusement park?
I can’t. There’s an outdoor shoot tomorrow.
Im Ba Ni, you’re not his assistant anymore.
You don’t need to worry about that shoot.
You’re right.
Why can’t I get used to it?
Professor really said I can quit?
He said I don’t have to be his assistant anymore?
Were you lied to your entire life?
Do you want me to call him and confirm it for you?
No, it’s fine. It’s fine.
Pinch me. I’m not dreaming, right?
You’re not dreaming. Believe it.
See? Doesn’t that hurt? Doesn’t it?
You better let go of me.
That was a total success. Right, Oppa?
I think so.
And you said you didn’t know how to act. You had me fooled.
You were really good.
I know. Even I was surprised by my acting.
The lines just came pouring out of me.
There’s something special about educated women.
What do you think? Should we do it once more or not?
We should.
She just barely started to feel better.
Let’s have another round before I go to work.
I think I’ll even jab my finger at you, like this.
- You have such great ideas! - I'll jab like this.
Okay! Great.
Are you really going to be like this?
And then you’re going to leave for work?
Why? Why should I apologize?
Oh, my! What’s wrong now? Why are you fighting again?
Why should I apologize?
What did I do wrong?
Talking back every time... Is that a way to treat your husband?
I thought you were an educated woman!
Well then, how can you... as a man, never give in to a woman?
Why do you have so much to say when you’re mooching off of us?
If you can’t earn any money, then you should at least be quiet.
I’m tired of it.
She should be more careful of what she says.
So why do you keep picking fights with her?
How can you leave like that?
What was that? I know we were acting but still.
Why would she say I was mooching?
What? If I don’t have money, I should be quiet?
I can’t believe this.
Oh! Oh, I’m sorry.
Sorry. Sorry.
Excuse me...
Uh... Don’t feel too bad over what Ji Won said.
I’m sure she said that because she’s under so much stress.
Not that what she said was totally wrong.
Don’t forget to flush the toilet. You didn’t flush it last time.
Hello, Professor.
During my time...
Take your stuff, Im Ba Ni.
Im Ba Ni? It feels really strange for him to not call me Empty Shell.
Hey, Empty Shell!
Empty Shell! Are you distracted again?
What are you doing? Hurry and get to work.
Yes, Professor.
[Resume]
[Send]
You didn’t forget about our plans for tomorrow, right? It’s our first date.
Oppa, where’s Mom?
She went to the market.
Oppa, I had another great idea for a fight.
That’s enough. What we did is good enough.
Why? It put Mom in a really good mood earlier.
If I said it’s enough, it’s enough.
- So what? - Aigoo, really...
Why are you picking on me for everything?
You’re a man but you’re petty and all twisted up inside.
Are you saying you’re proud to be unemployed?
Hey! Unemployed?
Why am I unemployed? I’m a stuntman!
Oh, that same stuntman who can’t get regular work?
Who knows you?
Why are you acting like this again?
Mom, don’t try to stop me. I’ve had it up to here.
Since we’re on the subject, let’s be honest about this.
When you moved in, what did you bring other than your body?
What?
Are you finished?
No, I have more to say.
They say unlearned people are foolishly bold.
How dare you use loud voice with me?
Did you really...? Really...?
What? It’s true that you’re uneducated.
Do you even know how to write your name in Chinese characters?
You...!
What’s wrong with you?
Why are you doing this?
There are things you should never say.
What? I’m not finished with what I have to say!
Oppa, wasn’t I good?
Wasn’t that killer acting?
What’s wrong, Oppa?
Oh, Mr. Unemployed…
Don’t.
Oh, what’s wrong, Oppa?
You’re acting right now, right?
I said don’t!
What’s wrong, Oppa?
Are you angry for real?
You weren’t acting, right?
Weren’t you saying things you had built up inside?
What are you talking about?
Why are they fighting all the time now?
I can’t believe them.
Should I send them somewhere to make up?
Grandma, I’m home.
Oh, okay.
Wash up and go into your room and start on your homework.
Your mom is in a bad mood so don’t upset her.
Why is she in a bad mood?
I don’t know...
The Rooftop... I mean, Kim seobang and your mom have been fighting since yesterday.
You really don’t know Mom.
What?
Mom and Kim seobang are putting on a show.
They were doing this with their eyes and doing this with their hands.
They were going all out.
What?
Is that true?
Why are you getting upset over nothing?
What did I do?
Then it’s not true?
If it wasn’t true, how can you say all that so easily?
What did I say?
You said I was mooching off of you.
I’m unemployed but dares to be petty.
The only thing I brought with me was my body.
What? You ask if I can write my name in Chinese characters.
That was just something I said for the sake of our show.
Even if it was just acting, there are things that shouldn’t be said.
You weren’t acting.
Acting is something that’s an extension of your thoughts.
How can those things come pouring out of you?
You’re putting on a great show.
I just can’t believe you two.
Mom!
Mother, please leave. She and I have something to discuss.
Don’t make me laugh!
I already know you’re putting on a show for my benefit!
Mom, this isn’t a show!
That’s right. Mother, please leave.
Be quiet!
You’re taking me for a fool.
Is this all you really think of me?
That’s not it, Mom!
Please leave this room, Mother!
Why are you yelling?
Why are you yelling at my mom?
Hey...! Didn’t you yell?
Am I the same as you? Why do you yell at my mom?
Did you just throw that at me? You threw that?
- I did! So what? - Here! Here!
- What’s wrong with you guys? - Here!
Hey!
What makes you so great?
Just what makes you so great?
I already know so stop with the show already!
What do you mean a show?
Why are you doing this?
Stop it!
I enjoyed looking at your work.
But I’m not the only one who has to judge these photos.
Oh! Professor Lee Kyu Han is one of the judges on the panel.
You didn’t know?
Pardon? I didn’t know.
Professor Lee praised you.
He said your skills may be lacking but you had passion for photography.
Pardon? Professor Lee Kyu Han said that?
It’s not easy to be praised by Professor Lee.
You must have found favor with him.
Oh, I see. Thank you.
Hold up your hands.
Those aren’t fingers to press the shutter.
Go and use those hands to attract boys.
Number 3, you will work for me as my assistant.
I personally recommend the 3rd option.
Yes, I’ll send you those by then.
Professor!
Oh, Miss Hye Ri.
Mommy!
What happened?! What’s wrong with this chair?
Are you finished with the interview? I’m at the park. Hurry over here.
Unni, please tell Young Kwang that I can’t meet him. I can’t reach him by phone.
What’s with you?
Professor... I’m sorry.
I’ll continue to be your assistant.
Professor!
Don’t be so flippant.
I don’t have time for your wishy-washy behavior.
Professor, I really won’t be like that!
I’ll never do that again.
You know how empty headed I am.
You know I’m just an empty shell.
Please give me a break just this one time, Professor.
I was really wrong.
Professor...
Get away from me.
You brought your camera?
Yes. Yes.
- Take some pictures of these. - Yes.
Get to it.
What’s wrong with you, Im Ba Ni?
Why is your heart beating so fast?
I think it’s been too long since I’ve dated.
Since both of us are one-sided lovers, let’s lean on each other as friends.
Young Kwang! I changed my mind. [Delete message]
I do want to date you so call me.
She’s been forgetting things lately.
I think it’s forgetfulness due to old age.
A test?
What did you say to me when I gave you that flower ring?
- "Say I love you," Ok Sook. - Sa...
