Eating Existence Director's Cut
Eating Existence
Episode 8
If the truth is mixed in, it's still delicious once it's cooled down.
- What? - Aren't you going to work?
When are you going to make money and get married already?
If you're going to be like this, isn't it just better to come back home?
Why would you want to stay there alone just to become this thing called a writer? It's dangerous, you know.
Do you not read the newspaper, Mom?
More than half of the women that are murdered are killed by either their husbands or their children, you know.
How could you talk like that, sweetie? Well, in the world that we live in today,
if you want to become a minister or something,
you don't have to get married, but instead work really hard. That could possibly be way better.
I told you about the dream that I had when I conceived you, right?
Mom. I am gonna hang up on you now, okay Mom?
If I wanted to become a minister or something I'd have to be like 50 or 60 years old.
What am I going to do about my poor mother?
Now that I'm thinking about Mom, I want to eat her food.
♫ Keep your spirits up, it'll be fine ♫
♫ These words ♫
I don't know. ♫ are redundant ♫
Yes.
♫ I too ♫
Don't worry too much.
♫ I can do it ♫
A life is lonely like a Hyena, anyway.
So I might as well just focus on my creative endeavors.
Huh?
Ms Yang. My grandson is looking for a tutor right now, so if you are interested please contact me. From the landlady.
♫ The words that I want to hear ♫
Teacher, I'm counting on you.
Our child is very smart but he doesn't have the perseverance that is needed.
When he was little he was really good at his studies, but in today's world everything is so competitive you know.
If you help him improve his study habits, then he'll be able to catch up very quickly.
♫ Just like that, without saying anything. ♫
♫ Who are you trying to comfort ♫
♫ Don't bother ♫
♫ it's really okay, thank you ♫
♫ That alone is more than enough ♫
♫ Really ♫
Living as a high schooler in Korea sure is nice, right?
Adults always say to study hard and that being a student is the best time of your life.
This is very unfortunate, but it's also true.
When you become an adult and start making money it will be totally different than when you were a student.
A diversified and powerful writing team will unfold before your very eyes.
If my parents have a lot of money, then that's enough.
Because life is equally unfair to everyone,
even the filthy rich don't really have an easy life either.
Type in filthy rich on the Internet.
Lawsuits, disputes, trials, prison, hospitalization, and this is all in sequence.
But in your case, it's more serious.
Instead of being sent to study abroad out of desperation or getting a special admission,
if you're of the ambiguous financial status to be getting a nameless tutor like me,
then I think you would end up in the streets even before you go do your mandatory military service.
Then what do you want me to do about it?
Open your books, you bastard.
What? What? What are you going to do?
- Mom! - Mom!
Your mom is not here.
What will you do?
- Dad! - Your dad is not here.
Dad! I said your dad is not here.
Teacher! I'm sorry, I wanted to prepare snacks more quickly but it came out so late.
Ah, no.
- This. - Yes.
Take it and eat with your family.
Oh my, thank you.
You'll come next week too, right?
Ah, yes, of course.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- Yes, bye. - Yes.
- Go safely. - Yes.
Byeong proposed to you?
Hey, that's amazing. So what did you say?
Of course I told him that marriage is just an obligation forced by society.
It seems exactly like you. Why would you say that?
So what did Byeong say?
I don't know. He stopped contacting me.
Kindhearted Byeong must have been so hurt.
You should have contacted him first saying you're sorry.
Why do you talk like a person from a show called Achim Madang from beginning to end?
Stop watching TV.
But, this is really delicious.
The outside is crispy and the inside is chewy.
And a sauce that is so sweet that it will make you feel so good. This is so awesome.
This is totally from a television program called Chajara Bapjp.
Yeah, you are really like a reporter.
Yes, this is the sweet and sour chicken made by a mother, with all her heart.
Should I put it in my mouth?
Follow me, camera.
You do all kinds of crazy things you know.
Oh this. Oh this.
So, are you going to call Byeong or not?
Why are you constantly talking about that ugly boy while you're eating this delicious sweet and sour chicken?
How is Byeong an ugly looking boy?
In my eyes he is an ugly boy. He is very ugly.
He's so ugly.
I am too pretty for a guy like him.
Just eat this sweet and sour chicken already.
♫ It's the words I wanted to know ♫
This is so delicious even though it got cold. Maybe it's because your mother really made it herself.
It really is. Do you want more?
It's fine.
Why aren't you drinking?
Oh I am so full.
♫ Oh to me ♫
I can't breathe.
♫ What I wanted to know ♫
I think my belly is gonna explode.
I... am getting married.
With whom?
What's with you? What do you mean with whom? It's with Byeong Heon Oppa.
Hey! No.
You two haven't seen each other long enough that you'd get married.
It's been a long time since we started seeing each other. It's been five years and we're tired of just dating.
If you're tired, break up with him. Date me instead.
Quit it, girl.
I said to call Byeong.
Ah, seriously, You pigged out on that delicious sweet and sour chicken, for goodness sake, but your here talking about that ugly boy all of a sudden.
- Hey. - Yeah.
I have something to say to you, to be honest.
What?
Byeong Heon, at a bakery not too long ago...
He was eating pastries with the girl the that he did it with.
It's probably just a junior at work that he knows.
With a junior do you know,
who with one straw would suck their spit.
Would they suck that?
Then you should go ahead and ask yourself.
How can you be suspicious and draw conclusions all by yourself like that?
All the guys that have an affair behind their girlfriends' backs are the same.
How could you that? Would you still marry Beyong Hun despite he did all that to you?
I wonder. When you first start dating, it's hot.
But whether or not it cools down doesn't have anything to do with love.
But still there can be somebody that suits you quite well and you can also meet someone that treats you nicely in life.
I am no longer in my twenties.
I have dated a few times and I realized that there is no such thing as that special someone.
If you're comfortable, then that's good enough.
♫ I could only feel the distance ♫
And... I'm already...
Are you filled with gas? Just fart already.
Not that.
♫ Please find it again for me ♫
Huh? ♫ To me you are a big gift ♫
Really?
Congratulations. Oh my.
Thank you.

The time they spend together, that deepness,
is something that I can do nothing about./
All passion cools down in the end, and the disappointed feeling about a person who is indifferent will also.
One day, it will cool down.
But like she said, is it true that only love remains?
♫ Thank you ♫
I wasn't able to make anything back anyway, but I sold off such a nice guy like Park Byeong for no good reason.
I'm sorry, Park Byeong.
♫ I'm really thankful ♫
♫ for doing it together ♫
♫ I'm really thankful ♫
♫ I was really thankful so I made this song. ♫
