(Episode 1)
Ready!
Let's go that way.
A completely unrelated man and woman meet,
fall in love, and get married.
It is sometimes called a miracle.
It is a miracle...
to see how they voluntarily chose torture.
Yes. Marriage is a very long torture.
It's like stacking stones on a man's legs,
or tying someone on a watermill...
and spinning it.
Lee Seung-woo!
Lee Seung-woo! Goal!
It's a miracle!
Sometimes, I think...
I'd like to live in the woods...
with just a cat.
We've been married for only three years,
but we've never agreed on a single thing.
She says she's laid back,
but she's just a clumsy human being.
If we set a time to watch a movie,
she's almost always late.
Of course, the movie starts first.
Come on. Let's go in.
We can't. Let's watch something else.
We're only 10 minutes late.
I'm sure nothing much happened.
Come on.
- Come on. - To her,
10 minutes is meaningless.
Whether it shows the main character's development...
or the theme of the movie,
she always says,
"Something probably happened."
Can you watch a movie with someone like that?
What movie do you want to watch?
(What movie do you want to watch?)
That's not the point right now.
If marriage was a season,
it would be winter. No. Monsoon season.
Among major life events, it would be a funeral.
If it were furniture...
What piece of furniture would it be?
Furniture? Something broken...
We need to go!
- Hey... - It's an emergency.
We need to survive first.
It's a dangerous situation with a life at stake.
My gosh.
99 percent.
What?
99 percent are accidentally activated.
I'm sorry.
Here.
He must have pressed it by mistake.
I think we should install it higher up.
Sure.
Hello? Yes.
Your card is stuck?
If we wrap up here...
and head over, it'll be...
Let's see. It'll be about...
Oh, no!
No, ma'am. No.
Ma'am.
- JECOM! - JECOM!
So how do you feel?
You haven't gotten used to it yet, right?
No. Saving people's lives...
is not easy.
80 percent.
Pardon?
80 percent of new hires...
leave within a year before getting used to it.
Hey, don't be such a pessimist.
This is a welcoming party.
Here.
No. No alcohol, please.
I have something important to do later.
Hey. Do you know how long I've waited for an outing?
Try being divorced.
When you eat alone, it's tastes like dog food.
So what is that important?
I'm going to have cake.
Mr. Kim got it for me from Japan while he was there.
I endured the entire day by thinking about it.
I'm going to enjoy it leisurely with coffee.
This cake is so delicious.
- It's so soft. - It would make anyone...
want for more.
I'm having such a life of luxury.
It's super nice.
Hi.
Hello.
You look much better.
Why don't you join us?
Sit down. Say hi.
Hey. Come join us!
What's with him?
Why are you speaking with your accent?
That rude jerk.
I'm not saying this...
just because...
you ate the Nagasaki cake...
that I was saving to have with coffee,
which I thought about all day long.
I'm not that petty.
Then why are you mad?
I'm not mad.
Yes, you are.
I am not.
Stick to one thing.
Either get mad or don't.
Fine.
If you insist, yes, I was mad.
But when you think about the context deep inside,
you can't just say that I'm mad.
Was it that wrong of me to counsel my friend?
Turn off the boiler first.
Why are you there after turning on the hot water?
You saw it first, so just turn it off!
Why are you passing the responsibility to me?
I didn't know when you'd go in,
so I was holding back.
You were holding back?
Why are you laughing? I wasn't being funny.
I told you a week ago that I had a gathering.
I didn't hear you.
You never listen to me.
You made a face like it was a waste of time.
- I did not. - You did.
It was the first time they came over.
Couldn't you be nice?
You slammed the door.
Do you know how bad I felt?
When did I do that?
I may have done other things,
but there's no way I did that.
My father used to slam doors all the time,
so I can't stand it.
I swore I'd never do that.
It's practically my life goal.
I did not.
You know I don't like kids.
I know,
but you may want some later on.
There's no need to keep repeating it.
Think about how I feel.
Maybe you married the wrong person.
What?
- Is that what you mean? - What?
So that's what you think.
From your perspective.
I'm talking about your perspective.
- What? - Maybe it was a mistake.
What was a mistake?
Getting married?
That's right! It was a mistake.
(Petition for Divorce)
(Petitioner)
(Petitioner: Jo Suk Moo)
(Petition for Divorce)
(Kwang)
I made a mistake.
Stop it. You're distracting me.
I made a mistake again. Whatever.
No!
It'll be submitted to the court.
Why won't it come out?
Why... Why won't it come out?
It's all the same.
She doesn't want to get divorced.
It's all an act.
Married life...
is an act every day for your whole life.
Will this repeat for the rest of my life?
What is life?
Avoid greasy foods,
read good books, take walks occasionally,
- and join... - Let's break up.
Okay. I will find another man.
Grandma!
- Goodbye! - Bye.
Bye.
Are you okay?
Did you forget I was a sports major?
This is barely a tickle.
Good.
I was in a rush earlier and forgot to close it.
Oh, no.
It's fine.
I'll just do this.
See? No problem.
You need to stop doing curling...
with your grandmother-in-law.
It's just a hobby.
This is emotional slavery, you know.
It is not. I do it because I like it.
You have a tendency to confuse...
other people's enjoyment as your own.
You're right.
When others are not having fun, I don't have fun.
Is that bad?
You only look at others, and not at yourself.
When you got married, that was my biggest worry.
This idiot will cater completely to the guy.
When I saw that guy,
he looked like he had a temper.
- I knew it. - "That guy"?
He's your brother-in-law.
What?
She calls me "that girl."
You're the same.
That's right. That's how I knew right away.
I'm sure he's comfortable after marrying you.
Not really.
He's very uncomfortable.
Did you fight again?
This makes me laugh for some reason.
Where's the paring knife?
I couldn't find it.
- Thanks. - Be careful.
Don't you guys fight?
Why would we?
When you live together,
you start seeing things that you don't like.
Why does that matter?
It's not like we're family or anything.
True.
That's better.
Where are you going?
To work.
It looks good.
- This will do, right? - Yes.
That's good. Okay.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Where are you now?
Why are you outside?
- Here. - Sweet potatoes?
I think we're almost there.
Are you sure?
Here!
- I'm k whiru! - Nice to meet you.
This is so cute.
Look at the beads.
They must be newlyweds.
It's so cute.
How long... Married?
Four years, happily.
Four?
They've been married longer than we have.
- Ask them. - What?
Ask them.
You keep kissing.
Do you still get excited about each other?
- Ask them. - Who knows if that's it,
or if some will get killed if they don't do it?
You never know. It's their privacy.
Forget it.
You are...
You still...
We live apart.
We live separately on weekdays,
and spend time together on weekends.
I think that people need their own time...
even if they're married.
We miss each other on weekdays,
and that makes our weekends more special.
I think that's the secret for keeping love alive.
Sure, that's right.
- What did he say? - They live separately.
What? Why?
They live apart.
Why is it so short?
He said stuff like "miss" and "special".
What's this?
Would people really come all the way here?
Of course.
I added things that tourists like...
and posted it at a low price.
The response is insane.
We'll make a fortune.
That's right.
Look at this.
I checked recently,
and I grew taller.
I checked it last month.
That's ridiculous.
How could a grown adult grow taller?
I mean it.
Check for yourself.
Look.
I grew, right?
What?
Right?
Look at this.
- Look at this. - What?
You're standing on your tippy toes.
Hey.
Do you even know how mysterious...
curling is?
You clean the ice...
in front of the stone.
I wish someone would clear my path...
for me like that.
Curling means that the stone curls.
The problem is, why does this stone curl...
in the opposite direction?
Why does it go straighter...
when you spin it more?
That's what it is.
What is he babbling about?
A curling stone...
moves in the opposite direction...
from other heavy objects...
that are spun and pushed down a flat surface.
Even physicians cannot come to an agreement...
regarding the theory on why that happens.
Thank goodness...
you didn't commit crimes with that brain.
He was always so smart when he caused trouble.
How did the conversation go there?
Love...
comes back!
It's gone!
Where did it go?
I don't see it.
(Kang Hwi Roo)
(Attendance Book)
If you get a teacher's license...
instead of being an assistant teacher,
you'd get much better positions.
You rent out your guest room too, right?
Rather than taking on part-time jobs...
Well... Actually, there is something...
that I really want to do.
Really? What is it?
It's Sunjung Engineering.
The employee forgot his security card.
He'll be there in 15 minutes.
Please let him in.
Okay, will do.
Hello?
This is N Dia in Jongro.
It's our employee's first day on the job,
but she doesn't know how to get in.
You need to go and show her how to do it.
Okay, but I think I'll need at least an hour.
What?
How can you take over an hour to get there?
I'll go as quickly as possible.
This is Heomundae-ro unit 27.
I'm traveling right now,
but I have a milk delivery outside.
Please put it inside for me.
Milk?
Okay. I'll check.
What time is it?
It's been over an hour and a half!
Why are you showing up so late?
I'm sorry.
Darn it.
This is Heomundae-ro unit 27 again.
Did you put the milk in?
I'm on my way now.
Hey. I called you so long ago.
The dogs will take them away!
I'm sorry.
- Hi! - Hi.
Come in.
You put on makeup.
I was just about to leave the house.
Thank you.
You are so different.
Beautiful.
Thank you.
Where's your husband?
He's actually waiting for me outside.
It's kind of a surprise for him.
He really likes me with makeup on.
A small change like this...
can make a huge difference in a relationship.
Small change.
Like?
Husband? Like?
Okay. The window can open up to here.
May I mark it here?
Even when the alarm is on,
you can open it up to here.
Stop staring.
Gosh, it's Jo Suk Moo.
Gosh, it's Jin Yoo Young.
Has it been 10 years?
Take that off.
What?
Here.
No.
I made it.
You look good in dress shirts.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
It's okay.
I scratched myself while putting the ointment on.
Sorry. I didn't mean to scream like that.
What happened?
How were you drinking your coffee?
I moved not long ago.
I live upstairs.
Do you live nearby too?
Yes. It's close.
How have you been?
Well, as you can see.
So this is what you do.
I'm surprised.
It isn't very me, is it?
No.
I thought you'd be holed up alone...
and write novels or sing somewhere.
Sure,
alone.
You wrote good music.
You looked cool when you wrote music.
That was 10 years ago.
You don't write music anymore?
No.
You liked this movie,
didn't you?
"The Swimming Pool."
"La Piscine".
What was it about?
You don't remember?
You looked like you were so in love while watching.
I did like it,
but I can't remember what it was about.
All I remember are what they wore.
A psychedelic print dress,
a bright blue shirt,
a crocheted swimsuit, and a white summer look.
That's what I liked.
(Episode 2)
You're home already?
I'm going to...
My gosh. The moon got bigger!
The moon does not get bigger.
No. It's unusually big.
It's huge.
It's an optical illusion.
It's also called a Ponzo illusion.
Okay. Yes, sir.
Screen.
Okay.
(Tracking a Delivery)
Are you expecting a package?
You weren't kidding?
No. I wasn't trying to make you laugh.
Sorry.
It's an introduction to social logistics.
- What? - The introduction...
of containers made the new liberalism possible...
Never mind.
You don't need to know.
Oh, no.
Why do you leave your doodles everywhere?
I got us a recycle bin.
Can't you throw them away in one spot?
Seriously.
Stop sighing.
Do you know how small that makes me feel?
You complain and sigh...
like you hate everything in your life.
And you're doing it for me to see.
I am not.
Just tell me to wipe it up.
I'm not grateful at all...
if you do it for me while sighing.
Wipe it up.
What happened to your face?
What? What about it?
It's scary.
(City Life)
(Yoo Young)
Thanks for the shirt.
(Thanks for the shirt.)
The shirt is nice.
(The shirt is nice.)
Handsome, right?
I am not sure if I understood you.
You little...
(Yoo Young)
Why can't I turn on the alarm?
Alarm on.
Did you live here long?
For about three years since I got married?
You're married.
Yes.
You must know a lot of good places.
Recommend some for me.
Sure.
Want to eat?
Aren't you hungry?
Sure. Shall we?
Enjoy.
Thank you.
What?
That sofa.
From when we lived in Goldville.
It looks a lot like it.
It was the one piece of furniture we paid for.
We picked up the rest from the streets.
What did you do with it?
I threw it away.
I gave it to a friend.
Want some wine?
Shall we? Red wine?
Yes.
Where's Suk Moo?
He's meeting a college friend.
A guy or girl?
Was I supposed to ask?
He doesn't lie, so...
Sure. That's his strong point.
Not lying and liking animals.
That's right.
He looks completely different...
when he looks at animals.
I don't know where that pure smile...
hides the rest of the time.
And you married someone like that.
I know.
Even if you get angry often,
women forgive easily when they like the guy.
Men are the opposite.
If a man likes a woman, he looks for her flaws.
A woman will forgive anything if she likes him,
but a man will not if he likes her.
What's that? The woman totally loses out.
Stop. No more.
Look at the watermarks.
There was much more on this side.
When you talked about men and women, you sped up.
Then it'll be bitter.
- Hey. - She asked me to do it.
Want to stay for dinner?
No. I want to practice cooking today.
Do you know something?
Curry erases bad memories.
It does?
Do you have many bad memories?
No.
It's nothing.
What is this?
Sea otters.
They're so cute.
Do you see them holding hands?
They are.
They must be super close.
That's because they hold onto seaweed and stuff...
when they sleep in the ocean.
But aquariums don't have that.
Is that why they sleep holding hands instead?
How cute.
Want another glass?
(This is Kevin. Where do I go?)
Kevin?
Kevin? That's tomorrow.
Your pinky.
I remember everything.
All your habits.
It's been 10 years. It's strange...
how I remember them as if it were yesterday.
You watch animal videos when you're angry.
You cook when you're angry.
You don't throw away the plastic wrap of CDs.
You sleep with your legs crossed.
You use those legs as a pillow.
Then you ran your fingers through my hair...
and played with it.
That scared me.
Kevin?
Are you texting your boyfriend?
Yes. He's busy today.
What is he like?
He's an art professor.
He designs products too.
Is he handsome?
Why do you ask?
Because you look happy.
What about you?
What is she like?
I don't know.
She's the complete opposite of you.
Loving at first sight...
and wanting her so badly that it hurt.
It wasn't like that.
You must have liked her if you married her.
I don't know. Really?
I'm surprised that you got married.
I'm curious.
Well, my story isn't anything special.
Is anyone home?
Alarm disarmed.
Excuse me.
90 percent of the time,
the alarm is set off by mistake.
Still, no one makes that many mistakes...
in such a short amount of time.
Situation clear.
- Hold on. - Thank you.
Here.
- You didn't have to... - I'm sorry.
This...
This... This is a typo, right?
This isn't really...
made from snakes, is it?
(Snake juice)
She always apologized...
and gave me all sorts of juices from her family.
(Pear juice, Eel juice, Corn juice, Apple juice)
So that day,
I was moving slowly.
I rescued a kitten along the way.
He lives with us now. His name is Yulmae.
And I obey every traffic law.
Okay, we're done.
We're leaving now.
But it was for real that day.
Ma'am!
The moment...
I'm scared the most in my entire life...
was during races.
You know how they shoot a gun to start the race.
That sound terrified me.
I was anxious about when it would go off.
"What if the sound scares me, and I start late?"
I would panic.
Then I'd feel asleep.
And one day,
I started to clean that dirty house...
and cooked food.
Then...
we just ended up living together.
What?
Right. Well,
she was the second woman I lived with.
If that hadn't happened that day,
we would've remained strangers.
I'm not sure if it was because I liked her.
I didn't know what to call her,
so I'd tap her on the shoulder.
I didn't know what to say to her,
so I'd grab her hand.
That's how things just progressed.
Then we got married.
That's why...
I don't have nice memories of dating.
That's a nice memory.
For some people, it's just natural like that.
I think that's whom you end up marrying.
Maybe I could've taken a different path.
Walking down a different path with someone else.
Haven't you ever thought about that?
You wanted dessert, right?
Shall we go now?
Can you come home early today?
We have a guest...
(Can you come home early? We have a guest)
Should we run to that convenience store?
Okay.
It's pink lipstick.
What are you doing?
It's a couple I saw recently in our town.
I just saw them again.
Hello?
Look, mister. Did you bring the milk in?
Yes, I did.
How many times must I call you?
You're so annoying!
Are you home?
Yes.
You left the door to the balcony open.
Sorry.
The light's on too.
Even the TV is on.
And the screen...
I'm sorry.
Hey.
If my sighing annoys you that much,
at least once,
just once,
can't you think about me?
Why I'm sighing, and why...
Okay.
Will we have anything good happen?
I saw that guy again last night.
Pink lipstick.
He must be popular.
Probably.
What?
Something good.
I want to get divorced desperately,
but I feel sorry for her to decide that alone.
I married her,
so I feel responsible too.
I'm making a sacrifice.
This is what marriage is about.
Selfishness,
habit,
and compromise.
So this is where you were.
Can I eat with you?
Why?
You should've just told me.
- What? - I didn't know.
Know what?
Gosh, it's nothing to be ashamed of.
Just get to your point.
I think the people excluding someone are bad.
To be honest,
I was an outcast in high school.
I didn't even know why.
They said I was clueless or something.
Anyway, it was really hard.
I thought...
childish things like that were behind me,
but even as an adult at work...
Hey.
Do you not want to quit yet?
Sorry?
Are you just getting back?
Yes.
What's for dinner?
Tonkatsu.
Yes.
Aren't you cold?
I'm fine.
He's a college friend.
I see.
Hello.
This is my husband.
I see. Hello.
It rained so hard last night,
but today, it's sunny...
It was, and now that the sun set,
it's chilly, and...
Yes,
that's right.
We should be careful not to catch a cold.
What is this? A new organization style?
There are many documents to prepare.
(Petition for Divorce)
We need to submit it to the court together.
When should we go?
Why...
This is so sudden.
What do you mean?
You will never know.
Why are you mad?
I'm not mad.
Strictly put, I'm not that mad.
Especially if you consider the complex context.
Then...
I want to stop.
I don't need you anymore.
I feel so free now.
The girl was always late.
The boy got angry.
But the boy doesn't know...
that the girl always came first,
and watched the boy in secret.
(Matrimonial Chaos)
When you get divorced, the families get divorced.
The coach is Hwi Roo's ex-boyfriend.
You weren't like this when we lived together!
Even 10 years later, you don't know anything.
Do you know where he is now?
Maybe that's when we forgot...
how to break up.
I think we should stop here.
