(Episode 8)
Mr. Choi how did you...
-What do you want? -What do I want?
You asking because you don't know?
I came to get you in exchange for your mother's debt.
Debt?
What debt? I already paid back your $300 dollars.
Paid back? You really don't know?
Instead of paying back the $300 dollars, it ballooned to $1,000 dollars!
A thousand dollars?
In-kyung is working the night shift at work.
Cha Min-woo?
How did $300 dollars...
become $1,000 dollars?
-It doesn't make sense. -Your brother Han-soo that bastard!
He ruined my boutique and bashed my head in!
It makes me mad just thinking about it again.
Han-soo?
-Han-soo did this? -You mom helped out as well.
You know the $300 dollars you sent down?
You didn't know she gambled it all away?
What did you just say?
The money...
she lost it all?
I think she's hearing for the first time Mr. Choi.
Seems that way.
Jeez, isn't this the most astounding thing ever?
Because of your brother and mother, your debt increased to $1,000 dollars.
How will you ever pay that large amount back?
Come live with me as my concubine.
That'll be the fastest and easiest way, don't you think?
-What? -Let's go down to Bonghwa now!
No, I don't want to. Let go of me.
I definitely saw him going this way.
I don't want to, please let go of me.
What's going on over there?
-I don't want to. Let go of me! -Let's go!
I don't know what's going on here...
but two men and one lady.
Don't you think this is unfair?
What is this thing?
Mind your own business and go on your way.
I want to mind my business,
but there's no doubt this is either a kidnapping or a crime scene.
Are you okay?
Help me please. These people are...
We told you to be on your way. Are you deaf or something?
Do you need me to unplug your ears for you?
If you think you can, be my guest.
Woah woah woah...
Wait a sec.
By the looks of things, you look like you're a gentleman with some power.
I don't know why you want to get involved with an insignificant country girl.
I'm more interested because it's insignificant.
Before anything more insignificant happens, I suggest you go.
-Then let's call it a day today. -But Mr. Choi!
Don't be too sad In-kyung.
We'll see each other very soon.
Let's go.
-Thank you! -Get in.
If you don’t want to see those people again, get in.
Everyone's gone for the day?
-Even the night shift's driver's assistant? -I just came back and didn't see anyone.
There's no one there. Please go back now!
Maybe I shouldn't have gotten involved.
I doesn't feel good when you help someone out and they look at you the way you do.
I'm really sorry, but...
will you drop me off here?
Where did that daring bus driver's assistant go?
Look here!
Oh that day!
The hit and run...
Ran away? Who?
The accident was formally dealt with.
So you really didn't run away?
You thought I was a criminal all this time?
Yes.
But now I know you're not a criminal.
Why...
-Thank you for dropping me... -Can you find your way now?
-Oh... yes. -Then...
I didn't even get a chance to say thank you.
Why that bastard Mr. Choi!
Oh my!
That crazy bastard went all the way down the bus company?
-What are we going to do? -Please answer me first.
Did you really spend the $300 dollars on a gambling binge?
You In-kyung...
What if they try to find us at this house again?
Well I guess we'll be fine if we just stay in this room, right?
Did our debt really $1,000 dollars now?
Okay okay, you're right!
I didn't try to lose it.
I was trying to make the $300 dollars into $1,000 and somehow I lost it.
Mom... do you know how I got that money? How could you use it all on a card game?
Keep your voice down, Han-soo might hear you.
Mom... you are too much.
What's too much about me? What what what?
If we take a closer look, it's actually all your fault.
Do you think it would be like this if you hadn't ran away?
Oh my goodness. Mr. Choi is going to kill us all here.
What are you going to do?
I don't know anything. You take responsibility for everything!
Mother!
Oh that day! The hit and run...
-Take the car. -Will it be okay?
Who's going to say anything? It's my car.
-Bring it to the movie company okay? -Okay.
Good night.
Who are you?
What are you doing?
Now you know who I am? If you don't want to get hit again, run!
Can't you hear what I'm saying? Huh?
Why did you hit him? Why?
You asked me not to interfere in your life and
respect your choices so I did what you asked.
But you know...
-there are boundaries that need to be kept. -Boundaries?
-What did I do so wrong? -Seriously?
What do you want? Do you want a divorce?
Are you confident you can go through with a divorce? You don't.
The day we end it, is the day Baekdu and Sechang begin their war.
Is that what you want?
If that's what you want, I'll give you the divorce.
If I want it?
What a cowardly answer.
I'm not going to divorce you.
If we divorce, my father will take everything away from me
and deport to a foreign country.
Why would I?
I won't.
If you don't have any intentions of divorcing me,
why would you bring a man to the house?
Did you know what kind of woman you were marrying? Why all of the sudden?
I didn't know it was going to be this bad!
There's a limit to one's patience.
The way you blatantly disrespect me and my family...
Ah I see, you're unhappy because I disrespected you.
You went into such a rage... I thought it might be out of love.
That's absurd...
It's a shame...
maybe if I felt pity for you.
Will you be okay?
I'm fine.
I can't stop working because of Mr. Choi.
I don't think this is a good idea. I'll go to work with you.
-I'll just quickly change. -No, don't Han-soo.
You have to protect mom, where are you going?
But In-kyung...
It'll be okay since there are a lot of people at work.
Stay right next to mom, okay?
Oh my shoulder... my back...
I was running away in my dreams all night long...
all of my body hurts.
You can't solve this by running away.
Don't think of anything else mom.
What's with all the nagging so early in the morning?
I'll see you after work.
I hope In-kyung will be okay.
No matter how I think about it, I don't think it's okay.
Right? Should I go and bring her back?
I'm not talking about In-kyung, I'm talking about us.
I don't think it's safe for us to stay home today.
How is your movie "Youth" coming along?
If you don't think you can do it, cut your losses and find another project.
I already put enough hours searching and I decided on this move.
The newspapers already reported it and investments are in.
The problem will be solved and we'll start production.
I'm telling you now...
don't think you'll get any favors because you're my son.
You know I hate it when things are wishy-washy.
I've never asked for any favors,
nor have I received any favors.
Why go through all this Jung-ho? There are plenty of great works in Choongmoo-ro.
Should I ask around?
Father... you know how particular Jung-ho is.
If he needs to, he'll make his own choices.
He won't do any project that anyone just picks for him.
Anyone?
What in the... Are you saying I'm just anyone?
Any which way...
Make sure you handle things quickly before people start asking to change CEOs.
If that happens, you know I will take your resignation letter in a heartbeat!
We finally have the family for a meal and all we can do is talk about work.
-I'm going to school. -Why don't you finish your meal before you go?
It's fine.
Oh Hee-ae...
do you remember your friend we helped last time?
Yes, why dad?
-I don't want you getting too close to him. -Dad, that friend is...
I'm leaving.
Alright Hee-ae. Have a great day!
$1,000 dollars?
Yep...
$1,000 dollars.
I've never even seen that kind of money...
but they say it's our debt amount.
Oh my goodness.
The money is a problem, but what about that Mr. Choi?
They came once, what's to say they won't come again?
If they do, I'll have to meet them.
I'll tell him I'll pay it off little by little.
Do you think Mr. Choi will believe you?
What if...
you get dragged back to Bonghwa?
-$1,000 dollars is not a small amount. -Even if I die, I won't go down with him.
I'll do anything...
but I won't go with him.
$1,000 dollars?
$1,000 dollars.
Kang In-kyung has a debt of $1,000 dollars?
(Sun Theater Company)
-Kang In-kyung? -Yes?
Cha Min-woo... that's my name.
I already know...
Cha Min-woo
teacher.
Min-woo.
Oh Yoon-suk... Did you call me?
This is starting all over gain.
You're a bit off these days. You stare off in space at anytime.
Right? I think there's something wrong with me too.
-What? -My heart hurts and throbs when I see her.
But when I don't see her...
it hurts even more.
Are you coming down with something?
I think I caught it.
For sure.
My whole body hurts from us walking all day long.
Han-soo I think your mother is going to get the flu tonight.
What's wrong with those guys? They look like they had an oil spill on their hair.
That must be the latest fad in Seoul.
-Do you want to try it Han-soo? -No, no thank you. It looks so sissy.
Dong!
This is Dong dong cream!
Oh my! They have face powder too.
It's so fine and pretty.
Can you pass us the mirror there?
What? You mean this?
Oh you must be from the county. Which part are you from?
We're from Bonghwa, why?
Why are you curious about where my precious son is from?
What the hell? Let's go!
Mom. Mom let's go.
No, wait. Dong dong cream...
-Let's go. -Wait, dong dong cream!
Thank you.
Mr. Cha...
Woah! You have a nice car assistant driver Kang.
All good!
How did you know I was here?
I called Victory Transportation and found out.
I'm not as dumb as I look.
But... why are you here?
Why aren't you coming to night school?
The thing is...
You have to take the GED exam. Please attend class.
To be honest...
I'm not in any situation to go to class these days.
Situations always seems to change whenever they want to.
That's why it's important not to forget your goals.
You have to hold on tight so you don't waver.
Make sure you attend. I'll be waiting for you.
Oops, bus fee.
We're at Haehwa-dong. Haehwa-dong.
Oh look at you sir!
Are you going somewhere? A date?
I'm going fishing.
What? You're going fishing dressed in a suit?
I have to go fish for the minnow named Cha Min-woo so I can take him to Mr. Lee.
Let's go!
So that's what I'm saying, you need to do better assistant Oh!
Where'd she go?
Excuse me, may I ask you something?
Does a Kang In-kyung from Bonghwa work here?
Kang In-kyung?
We don't have anyone by that name here.
I don't think so.
I just saw Kang In-kyung wearing a uniform and leaving here just a minute ago.
-You saw too right? -Of course sir.
I said we don't have anyone by that name.
-Who the hell are you talking down to me? -The owner of this company.
What's with all the blabbering? I'm the owner and I say I don't know her!
Ma Chul-hee... get rid of them.
My boss says for me to get rid of you.
Well... the that's... but... I really saw her.
-Sir? -Why don't you leave before things get physical?
But but but... that's not...
Go!
Do they think I'm an idiot or something?
What are we supposed to do? Do we just wait here?
No need for that. Let's go.
Kang In-kyung? She has to go home sometime today.
Let's go!
Who are...
You... you're that...
Oh oh oh! You don't need to worry.
Ma Chul-hee! You'd better apologize right now!
Wha... Oh! Sorry about last time.
I heard he didn't know you were and he was very disrespectful to you.
Let me apologize on his behalf.
May I ask why you're here?
Our president would like the opportunity to meet you.
The president? What for?
We can talk about that on the way over there.
No, I can't go with you without knowing anything.
That play...
that's the reason you borrowed money from us.
He said he need to talk to you about something important.
Whether that play could go on or not go on.
-In-kyung, In-kyung. -Hi Keum-soon.
What? Is there something wrong?
Mr. Choi was here a couple minutes ago.
-Mr. Choi was here? -Yeah.
But Mr. Byun said you didn't work here and made sure they left.
Mr. Byun made them leave?
(Sechang)
What... what is going on here?
This is my play. This is the play I'm getting ready to open soon.
That's the reason why I asked you here.
("Youth"/Production: Nam Jung-ho)
You're Baekdu Movie Production's CEO Nam Jung-ho...
Your play, "Youth's Race". Instead of a play, let's make it into a movie.
-Have you heard of this production company? -Damn you Nam Jung-ho...
You can't barge in like this!
We meet again.
Why don't we have a...
You asked me why I didn't want to make it into a movie.
Because I didn't want it to be like this. Conniving back-stabber!
Plagiarism? You act like you're one of Korea's largest production company,
but you plagiarize someone else's play? Aren't you ashamed?
I am ashamed...
When I found out, I postponed all production. Then I went to go look for you.
Postponed? Do you actually think I'd believe you?
If you don't believe me, go check it out.
Go see how much I'm losing by stopping all production.
So... then what are your plans from now on?
If you agree to the film, then I'll start production again.
And if I don't sell you my play?
Then...
I'll have to bury the movie.
And because of the tremendous loss...
I'll have to remove myself...
from this position as CEO.
However you spin this. To me, you're just a greasy movie salesman.
Let's not ever meet again!
("Youth"/Director: Park Byung-jin/Writer: Hwang Do-kyung/Production: Nam Jung-ho)
Sue them.
Sue them and make sure you're overly compensated.
That way you can protect your project and use the money for a bigger and better play.
Don't worry about anything, go to the police station and submit a complaint.
After that, I'll help you out.
What are you thinking about? Is it because of Mr. Choi?
I wonder why... Mr. Choi helped me out?
Yeah... I'm uncomfortable with that too.
Mr. Byun is not the type to help out anyone by telling or not telling a lie.
I wonder what he's up to.
At least Mr. Choi won't come around here to look for me.
I was afraid I might burden our colleagues over this.
At least something good came out of it.
(In-kyung)
(GED Examination Notice)
Are you going to go to night school tonight?
You're not going home?
Home...
I should go home.
We just need to guard this alley here right?
Yes.
If Kang In-kyung wants to get home, this is the only alley she can use.
Kang In-kyung...
As long as I have this...
you can't do a damned thing!
Understand?
Alright... let's start class.
(In-kyung)
Let me walk you home. It's late.
It's okay, I'm fine.
I had a horrible day today.
Can't you be a little nice to me?
-Mr. Cha? -Yes In-kyung?
I'm Cha Min-woo's girlfriend.
Shouldn't you talk to you girlfriend about things like that?
What you're doing is not right.
Please don't offer to take me home anymore.
Wait... but...
What is she talking about?
I have a girlfriend?
You must've had a hard time assisting since it was so hot today.
A little, but you're probably more tired than me.
Oh! He's selling watermelons.
We used to eat so much watermelons in Bonghwa around this time of year.
Keum-soon.
Do you want some watermelons?
I can buy you some.
Oh no! You shouldn't be spending money on stuff like this!
Don't say such non-sense.
Me? I make money so I can spend it on you.
Didn't you know?
So help me pick the best one.
Yes... what do you think about this one?
This one? Okay.
This one. Yes, it looks good.
Was I too harsh on him?
Damn! Why hasn't she shown up yet?
Mr. Choi...
I think someone passed by here...
Here here... here we go.
My poor baby.
You must be tired from walking around all day.
Jeez, he played hooky around all day long
but you're giving him watermelon like its an award.
What's it to you? Did you buy the watermelon? No, Keum-soon did.
In-kyung likes watermelons too.
Don't worry Han-soo, I left some for her.
The watermelon is really sweet isn't it?
Keum-soon, have some more.
You too Chil-bok.
Oh boy...
Your face is turning as red as this watermelon Keum-soon..
I'm back!
In-kyung, you're back. Hurry and have some watermelons.
Good timing! We just cut them up. Sit down.
Are we having a watermelon party?
Wow, they look delicious!
Woah! Doesn't this look great!
Oh my goodness!
Han-soo! Han-soo come over here. Over here.
Well... who is this?
Aren't you Mrs. Park and Han-soo?
Honestly, I am so astounded.
The three of you are living as one big happy family...
while trying to evade me right?
I thought you didn't know who Kang In-kyung was? You said she didn't live here.
Oh your name is Kang In-kyung?
Boy! I don't know how that slipped my mind!
This isn't my house.
Let's go outside. Let's go outside and talk.
If we talk, are you going to listen?
Don't you dare touch my sister! I'll kill you.
Why are you like this again? Don't do it Han-soo.
Han-soo move aside, I'm fine.
Han-soo can't cause anymore trouble. What are we going to do?
Do... do you have evidence?
-What did you say? -So I'm saying, where is it?
Show us evidence of how In-kyung and her family are indebted to you.
Oh! Our Mr. Huh is so smart!
That's right! What kind of hoodlum are you to barge in here without any evidence?
Do you see this agreement for $1,000 dollars?
Kang In-kyung...
Do you see this?
Bring Kang In-kyung here!
Who are these hoodlums?
How did you get yourself into a $1,000 debt?
Let's go get Kang In-kyung.
-I don't think he put in a complaint yet. -Where is Cha Min-woo?
In-kyung is Bonghwa's con-artist.
Everyone in the family is a con-artist.
Like a macho man! With stamina! Choon-ja, I love you. Understand?
You'll be sold here and there for the rest of your life!
