You guys are watching...
Wannabe YOLO.
The kimchi is seasoned really well. Let's see.
Thank you. It's delicious.
That's right.
I hear your second son
is doing really well.
Should I put him on the list in the marriage market in Gangnam?
Gangnam marriage market?
No. It's okay.
Why not?
Is he seeing someone?
Mom! Ae-bong's here!
-Thanks for this. -So am I!
Come by again, okay?
-Thanks. -Okay.
-Hello. -Hello.
Hello.
Mom.
-Hello. -Feed me.
You still haven't eaten?
Don't get me started. She got so stingy
ever since she became unemployed.
We thought about what to eat for an hour
and came here because it's free.
That's not it.
It's because your cooking is so good.
Hi, Ae-bong.
-Dad. -Hello, Father.
You're not opening the restaurant today?
I have a reunion, so I'm taking the day off.
I said either don't go to the reunion, or have it at the restaurant.
I said to choose one.
Why can't you run the restaurant for me just for today?
It's not like I bum around doing nothing like somebody.
The housework is never-ending.
I haven't been doing anything lately since I'm unemployed.
Should I run the restaurant for you?
What?
Would you?
My daughter-in-law is the best.
What daughter-in-law? They are not even married yet.
Hey. Who would've guessed he would own a chicken place?
Right?
Who knew?
There are
so many chicken places now that many are closing down,
but my place is steadfast.
Hey.
When's your calligraphy exhibition again? Next weekend?
-Yes. -"Calligraphy exhibition"?
You just retired as bank president. When did you learn calligraphy?
Well... I contemplated on starting a business too.
But after Jeong-su died last year,
I decided to do
what I want to do from now on.
You're totally living what kids these days call a YOLO life.
"YOLO"? What's that?
Gosh.
You don't know that?
Live life to the fullest.
He's the one truly living a YOLO life.
Always traveling.
I heard you're going on a week-long cruise next week.
Yes.
My wife and I are enjoying our second honeymoon stage.
Hey. Do you guys work out? I picked up jiu-jitsu...
Get to Cho's Chicken right this instant!
Don't just fry chicken all the time.
Take care of yourself too.
Come on.
CHO'S CHICKEN
Among all the places in this big world,
the only place I've taken a plane to is
Jeju.
I want to live a YOLO life too.
Must I spend the rest of my life in this chicken place?
Mr. Cho!
You drank yesterday, right?
A bottle and a half.
I knew it.
Ta-da.
Drink this.
Are you going somewhere? What's with the globe?
What? No. Where would I go?
You should rest.
I'll help out until I get a new job.
Sure. Okay.
How can I be free of this place?
Oh my god.
Mr. Cho. I'm so sorry.
We will have to close before we even open at this rate.
Yes. That's it.
I'll make sure we go out of business.
CHO'S CHICKEN
HOURS OF OPERATION 10 A.M. to 6 P.M.
People crave chicken at night,
but we will only serve it from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
It'll be like telling them not to come.
Good.
We'll close down in a month for sure.
Gosh.
It's blinding.
What is all of this?
Mr. Cho.
I felt really bad about yesterday, so I cleaned up the place.
It's okay. We won't have any customers anyway.
You didn't need to.
That's why I got some big groups for the afternoon.
My friend is a tour guide, and she says chicken and beer
are super popular in China because of K-dramas.
What?
Why did you do that?
-Chicken and beer! -Chicken and beer!
Mr. Cho. We ran out of ingredients
within two hours of opening.
Are you that happy?
I want to close down.
I want to close down for good.
Ae-bong.
Here's the last chicken. Please serve it.
Yes, Father.
Thief! Help!
Stop, thief!
Mr. Cho, I caught the pickpocket.
That was awesome!
Everyone! I caught him!
I did it!
NEIGHBORHOOD CHICKEN PLACE SAVES A NEIGHBOR
Hi, you. How have you been?
What brings you here?
I have good news, that's why I'm here.
Take a look at this.
You see her?
Her parents are the principal and vice-principal of an elementary school,
and she's a teacher. She teaches Korean.
She looks nice.
What do you think? She's perfect for Seok.
My gosh. But who was that future daughter-in-law
that was in the paper? Whose girlfriend is she?
Oh, my gosh. Is she Jun's girlfriend?
That's--
My gosh! You have so many things to celebrate!
Your chicken place is a big hit
and you will marry off both sons!
-You must be so happy! -What else?
I was thinking about my cutie pie.
I don't have a girlfriend.
That's right.
In light of that, how about we go on a date tonight?
I thought you said Jun has a girlfriend.
My son is a piece of trash.
Dad, did you see this article?
"It was more meaningful because the rock was fried by my father-in-law."
Isn't Ae-bong just awesome?
NEIGHBORHOOD CHICKEN PLACE SAVES A NEIGHBOR
She's awesome.
But everyone in town will read that paper.
How could you call her our future daughter-in-law?
Why? She is your future daughter-in-law.
Hey.
What are you talking about? Life is unpredictable.
Okay. All done.
Please try some of this.
I went to my favorite pizza place
and they put a layer of breadcrumbs on the chicken.
It made the chicken much crispier. We should sell it at the restaurant.
You really are a lucky charm.
Hold on. I may end up having to quit my job
to open a second location.
Dad, maybe your golden years
will be spent dominating the chicken industry.
You may...
This will not do.
I'll make sure
people shudder at the mere mention of "chicken."
What's this?
AVERAGE SALES PER TYPE OF FOOD
This is our target region for our new location.
Research shows mom-and-pop chicken places
are thriving here.
Thus, our strategy is to destroy
the small businesses that lack deep pockets.
And once the market is ours, we will raise the price back up!
Discount on chicken.
It's 4,000 won for one chicken?
I'm speechless.
You can get chicken for free in our neighborhood.
Who would pay for it?
CHO'S CHICKEN PREFERENCE RESEARCH
He used an unimaginably aggressive sales strategy
with a shockingly low cost. He is a genius.
His name is Cho Cheol-wang.
Our chicken franchise location in this region had to shut down.
Cho's Chicken ruined everything.
What's up? Why did you want to meet here?
You hate wasting money on coffee.
I knew you would do this.
-Put this on now. -What?
-Tie it. -What is this?
You're
going on a blind date today.
Mom. Have you lost your mind?
Ae-bong is working her fingers to the bone at Dad's shop,
and you want me to go on a blind date?
No. I won't do it. How can I do that to Ae-bong?
Why you little...
Sorry for making you wait.
Enjoy.
You know, right? We were in the magazine.
At this rate, forget YOLO.
I'll be frying chicken
until the day I die.
Yes.
Given what it is,
REPORT COMPLAINTS
that's the only way.
There is a famous chicken place in our neighborhood,
but it tastes funky.
I think they put foreign substances in the chicken.
I think they used dead chicken.
Hello.
Hello. We have a customer.
We haven't opened yet.
Please, have a seat.
That was a camera lens that sparkled just now.
He came to eat chicken alone during the day in a suit.
He's obviously a production director
-conducting a secret investigation. -I would like some chicken, please.
Here's your chicken.
Let me know if you would like more.
Thank you.
May I get a fork?
What the...
Thank you.
The term "YOLO" has become all the rage recently.
I hear there are people who quit their jobs
because of that YOLO business.
Gosh. Don't get me started.
They will talk about YOLO this, YOLO that and eventually end up dead.
The YOLOers don't delay happiness now to enjoy later.
Thus, they live in the moment...
How's your dad? Is he okay?
He's fine. He was discharged the very next day.
For committing fraud...
-It's not true. -Are the accusations true?
What? Hey. That woman.
Who is she?
What's going on?
She's the one you told me to go on a blind date with.
You went on a blind date?
With that gold digger?
Mom told me to, but I didn't. It's the truth.
Why you... How could you say that?
Ae-bong, listen to me.
So... What? Who went on a blind date?
There was a reason for that. My dear daughter-in-law.
Ae-bong!
-What? -Who's your daughter-in-law?
Who's your daughter-in-law?
The one who gets in my way?
That daughter-in-law?
I won't permit it!
My YOLO.
You only live once!
What is this man babbling about?
-You've lost your mind. -YOLO!
All right!
Seok. Let's talk in the room.
What? Why? Let's talk here.
Being solo is the best.
Solo is YOLO. That's right.
Next up...
Glorious Revenge.
How long do we have to wipe these?
You never even use these.
My cheapskate father spent a lot of money to buy these for me when I got married.
So how could I use them?
I keep them clean and just enjoy looking at them.
Sure.
This is awesome.
What the heck? That idiot.
Hey! Stop being stupid and wipe these.
-Wow. It looks so real. -Hurry!
Of course, I'll submit it on time.
Yes. I love you. Hugs and kisses.
What is all this?
I'm getting my own place,
but I can't move in for a week, so I brought my things here.
We will be roomies for a week. I love you, brother.
-What? -I have to explain again?
I'm getting my own place,
but I can't move in for a week,
so I brought my things here.
We will be roomies for a week. I love you, brother.
Sorry, but I've found another guy.
How could your love change?
The female, having found another mate, coldly abandoned the male.
Let go.
No one can stop the male during mating season.
Stop being so clingy!
The male's aggressive behavior...
eventually drew blood.
I'm bleeding.
Why did you turn it off?
Let's watch just one at a time.
It's more fun to watch together.
Dang it. Not again.
Wake up.
Why did you have to buy a knock-off?
What is that? It randomly turns off on its own.
It's cheap.
Plus, it looks just like yours.
But this is really annoying.
-I feel like eating-- -Jjajangmyeon.
Right? Want some? I'll go buy some.
Wait.
-You're moving out next week, right? -Of course.
You'd better! Or I'll throw away all of these knock-offs.
I'll kill you.
Hold on.
I should mark mine before we get confused.
It must seriously be uncomfortable.
TV, fridge, vacuum...
Wow. Think of the electricity bill.
Calculating based on 2018's minimum wage of 7,530 won per hour...
That must be expensive.
The real problem is,
it's not just the electronics that are in duplicates.
Which one is mine?
They are both for brushing teeth, so who cares.
-Hey. -Yes?
They say underarm lymph massage
is really good for circulation.
You should try it later too.
Shit.
Thanks for everything, brother.
Let's not see each other for a while.
My sentiments exactly.
Please, let's live our separate lives
and not see each other.
Let's see.
What's wrong with this?
It's Jun's.
Shoot.
Don't tell me...
Shit!
Brother!
Let's not see each other for a while.
-Have a seat. -Okay.
The apartment is nice and clean.
I didn't kick you out because I hate you.
You need to live alone to become an adult.
Listen to your mom.
Yes, Mother.
Everything here is brand new,
so they look nice.
It must've cost a lot.
It didn't cost money, but it did cost brain power.
What?
Want to watch TV?
There's an animal documentary that I watch these days.
I know for a fact, that you would like it.
New products really are different.
The remote works really well.
What? I guess.
ALL NUDE BOY 10,000 WON
An animal documentary costs 10,000 won?
That's weird. I didn't press that.
"All Nude Boy."
Is that a sequel to the movie, Old Boy?
What? I didn't press that. Why is it doing that?
WOULD YOU LIKE TO PURCHASE? YES
This...
This isn't an animal documentary!
You punk.
You crazy little... Hey!
-How could you? -No, wait...
-No, Mom! -You brat.
How dare you?
-Mom! -Get over here.
-Turn that right off. -I didn't press it!
Of course, I want to go pick you up.
But you'll see why I can't.
Yes. So come right in.
Okay.
JUN LOVES EUN-OK
That's right.
Surprise.
I'll hide in the bathroom.
I'm going to hide.
She will be so happy.
Dang it!
Sweetie. What is it?
Why did you tell me to come in...
Eun-ok!
Ta-da.
LEAVE, CRAZY BITCH
I love you.
Love?
You call this love? This is love?
I really love you.
You pervert.
You big fat pervert!
You stupid freak!
Okay.
This is a reflective glass, punk!
Shoot it!
Dang it! My eyes!
My eyes!
Do you think this will make me return your things?
Listen carefully. I will not
step foot outside my apartment!
So, give it up.
I'm getting sick of instant noodles.
I can't even go out because of Seok.
Should I get delivery?
Yes.
Hello. Can I place an order?
I would like a jjolmyeon and--
Delivery!
SKY GIMBAP
You're really fast.
-Gosh. Jjolmyeon and gimbap. Right? -Yes.
Jjolmyeon.
I was craving this.
Okay, Jun. Enjoy. I'm leaving.
This is ridiculous.
I can't even go out.
So yummy.
This isn't the exit.
I'm leaving. Enjoy.
-I won't see you out. -Okay.
Shoot. So sore.
That stings. Why does it sting so much?
Where's my mirror? That stings.
SLAVE
That's 23m.
SLAVE
I lose.
Goodness. Both of you are so immature.
Jeez.
SLAVE
Get me a drink from the kitchen, will you?
I don't want to.
Don't be like that. Get it for me.
I said no.
-Really? -Really.
-For real? -Of course.
Even now?
Stop!
Put that away.
-Get it for me now. -Put that away.
Fine. I lose.
Speed it up!
One, two!
On your feet!
Run! Get moving!
SLAVE
Goodbye, troublesome family.
