oh, my bag.
hey, are you crazy?
sorry mister, I'm very sorry.
thank you so much.
I'm so sorry.
shit.
is it a toy?
it seems to be a trumpet.
somebody just left it on my bus. it's already a month. nobody's coming to get it back.
so I'm keeping it home until.. somebody wants it back.
no, you can take it. it's yours.
hey,
why?
try it. you have very good hands.
you think 'good hands' can play instruments?
well, it's broken.. doesn't work.
I don't think so.
let's have breakfast.
daddy, I'm pregnant.
hey, girl. you shouldn't keep calling me like this.
what do you want? you want to date me?
didn't I tell you that I'm coming to your place to get my puppy back?
no, you got me wrong.
that's why I left my phone number at the record store.
if I wanted to steal your puppy, I didn't have to leave my number, did I?
oh my, you think I've eaten up your puppy?
your puppy is too small to eat!
take it easy, girl.
have a seat.
have you eaten up a puppy?
bingo!
you asshole!
why did you make trouble at this time?
I'm not here for you! I'm a busy guy!!
what's that?
a line for keyboards.
keyboards? what the hell?
why?
I think it's out of fashion now.
I won't join this band if you guys want keyboards.
play those lines on guitar, okay?
hey, Kyung!
as I told you, this is our new singer.
oh, yeah.
who are you?
she's our keyboardist.
Kyung, this new singer wants keyboards out.
no, I don't! why do I want keyboards out?
there's nothing wrong about keyboards!
you have long fingers.
and you're tall.
let's go together!
let's go!
oh..how come they don't give me a call? did they forget the appoinment?
probably they're having a good time without me.
hey guys, I'm very busy today.
so let's get together from tomorrow, okay?
you got beautiful eyes.
bye bye.
she's strange.
Kyung!
yeah.
it's a recording of her singing.
how's her voice?
pretty nice.
she has different voice style from Yun-jung's.
that's nice.
actually, I didn't really like the voice of Yun-jung.
I didn't, either.
what are you guys talking about now?
you guys are so funny.
Kyung.
landlord was here.
how many months of rent are overdue?
did you tell him to give us just one month of time?
he said, 'get out, right now'.
Kyung!
yeah..
let's sell our instruments first.
in one month, we'll get paychecks from out part-time jobs.
so we can just pledge our instruments first, and..take them back after one month, okay?
there's nowhere to go for us.
do we have any instruments to sell?
one of two basses of Ki-hong's and..
Yun-jung's guitar.
we'll get it back soon.
Kyung, you feel sorry, don't you?
what's sorry for?
it's just a guitar.
you stop there!!
you got fooled too?
what?
shit! he's a thief!
excuse me.
I got a question.
this one..doesn't work.
it works.
how can you do that?
you can play it, too.
well, I couldn't.
you need a practice.
excuse me.
you buy second-hand instruments, right?
oh.. it's originally 700,000 won.
oh my, that's too cheap.
forget it then, take it back.
can you give me just a little more?
it has a drawing on the back.
this kind of guitar doesn't sell well.
thank you.
excuse me, can I try this?
as you please.
sounds nice.
then, how about this?
well, that doesn't sound like a line for keyboards.
right.
it was written for just guitar, bass & drums.
actually, this is a vocal melody.
you write songs?
yes.
why are you selling your instruments, then?
you're the first audience to hear this song.
I'm honoured, thanks.
good bye.
wait a second.
take it back again.
that's for your playing.
don't sell your instrument unless you're upgrading it to a better one.
you can make money by playing around like this, can't you?
hello, this is a music store.
oh, electric bass?
we have whole bunch of 'em.
you gotta come here and check them by yourself.
I can't give you details on the phone.
too many kinds of basses, you know.
no, not on the phone. please drop by our store.
right, price range is wide, too.
hi..
a vacant seat there.
give me that guitar.
no, it's alright.
well..this..
oh, I thought..it was stolen.
uh..your piano playing was very nice.
you saw me?
where did you see me?
uh..you seemed to be in a need for money.
you were trying to sell this guitar.
yes..and I lost big money too.
oh, I saw you too.. in the subway..
what did you see?
you..were running fast.
and somebody's after you.
he was saying you're a thief.
uh..well..that guy..
actually, he's a friend of mine.
uh..
it's because..
we were eating ra-men together..
and we need kimchi.
so I went to buy kimchi..
driver! wait a second!
oh, my guitar!
hew..what am I doing now?
mom, here comes Boksu!
Boksu!
oh, you're so heavy.
Sung-ho, get inside and study.
no, he has to go out to deliver fried chickens.
I'll do it for Sung-ho.
you have no idea about this town, do you?
come back soon.
yes.
I'll be right back.
mom, was I so obedient like Sung-ho? when I was a kid?
why did you come here?
to help me to deliver chickens? I don't think so.
keep this for me for a while.
do you play guitar?
you're doing whole kinda things, aren't you?
put it over there.
is your fried chicken business running well?
why do you ask?
if it isn't, will you give me more money?
sure.
that's nice.
well..mom, I have a favor to ask..
the money I gave you a couple days ago..
for some reason.. I need the money right now.. so, please lend it to me.
I'll give it back to you within..5 days?..one week?
take it back!
are you fooling me with money now?
I asked you to just 'lend' it to me.
once money is off your hand,
it's not yours!
that's the iron law!
get out of here!
I'm sorry, mom.
I'm sorry.
you want to beat me up a little more?
more?
stop it and put the money back.
you're fooling me from time to time..
and there're whole bunch of other things hurting me.
you're making the situation even worse!
lady Chung!
get me dinner.
you can go now.
there's not much left in the fridge..
that's usual for us. isn't it?
get me dinner, I'm hungry.
if you want to have dinner, you must go to a restaurant.
this is a fried chicken house.
is he Sung-ho's father?
does it matter?
he's not Sung-ho's father.
give me a few minutes.
why are you staring at an elder person like that?
you're so rude.
how fucking old are you?
hey.
you shut up!!
you shut up and get inside.
what have I done wrong to you?
that boy..went outside.. right after he saw you.
why did he go out?
lady Chung.
how many times you had dinner here?
can't even remember?
you like to have dinner here?
those foods are all from me. from my money.
are you gonna pay me, huh?
what's happening now?
I'm an ex-convict.
okay, here's a road for you.
you know where the door is, don't you?
you want me to open the door for you?
one more time I saw your face,
god knows what'd happen, understand?
Sung-ho,
count 100 outside and come in, okay?
why? you're pissed?
what do you want me to do then?
you can't live without a man, can you?
no, so what?
I knew it. that's why you've always been beaten up by your guys.
what did you just say?
you..
shut up and hear me!
okay, guy problem.. that's your business.
but what about your little son?
he went outside as soon as he saw the old man.
how can you do that to Sung-ho?
you got old so disgracefully..
look at you..
if you need a guy, then find a nice guy and get married again.
but a guy like that?
shame on you!
please find a decent guy! please!
why would a decent guy wanna go out with me?
why not? why do you think not?
you're still good, still nice.
there must be at least one guy who really can take care of you.
not a single guy took care of me.. for more than 50 years of my life..
take Sung-ho in.
he didn't have dinner.
did you count 100?
then..count until 100 and come in..
I'll count 100, too.
51, 52, 53..54, 55, 56..
57, 58, 59..60, 61..
Boksu,
get on.
get on!
this is the last bus!
leave me alone! I'll walk.
see? you're sweating a lot..
you should've got on my bus.
my bus comes to the laundry shop, you didn't have to walk all the way here.
that bus is not 'your' bus, the company owns it.
so you feel ashamed about it?
what are you talking about?
a driver is not a bad job, you know.
it's good.
Boksu,
what?
go to college.
dad,
even now, my brain is full.
didn't you see I'm using some paste on my head every morning?
if I put some more knowledge into my brain,
then it will explode out.
then, empty your brain and..
fill it with knowledge.
look, I'm not a millionaire.
I have to work.
what are you talking about?
it's me who's feeding you.
you don't have to work.
we can live on my salary.
you don't have to worry about that.
I don't have tuition.
I have money for your tuition.
start studying.
dad..
you saved money for me?
that's 'your' money, not mine!
save some more money for yourself..
and spend it on..
whatever you want to do, like there's no tomorrow!
you should do that!
that's one of the things you have to do in your life.
before you get much older,
do that!
do that with your money, cause you don't accept my money.
and..
just let me do what I wanna do..!
I have no answer for my life yet, you know.
I shouldn't have put you in the orphanage..
don't smoke.
you'll get a brain damage.
why..
why did you want to see me at this stairs?
wanna smoke?
yes.
look at you..
smoking doesn't become you..
I'm sorry, what?
well..
where's my puppy?
the puppy..
where is it?
I lost it.
that doesn't make sense!
at least, I didn't eat it.
oh, shit!
what are you doing there? follow me.
this music is so nice, don't you think so?
no, not that nice.
why? isn't it romantic?
his clothes are exotic, too.
he's a real free-man.
his clothes look the same with my father's.
without the hat..
then, your father must be a free-man too.
har-har-har..
bottoms up!
bottoms up again.
don't you get drunk?
no,
alcohol and water feel the same to me.
they're just filling my stomach.
well..
you're always doing things which don't go well with you.
excuse me?
you don't look to be a drinker..
hey,
what kind of person do I look to be, then?
what do you mean by 'don't go well with'?
you look very simple and honest.
can you sense it..
from my look?
honey,
uh?
I guess..
you're always being fooled by others, right?
why are you calling me honey?
you're not my boyfriend.
does it matter?
well..
why do you keep wearing those kind of clothes?
look so..
you must be crazy!
I'm not, you know..
can he..
can he make living on that?
can he support his family?
music is..
why don't you hear me?
you know, music is..
music is only for hobby.
he shouldn't do that, you know.
music is only for..
geniuses!
then only genius..
can be a musician?
exactly!
I see..
oh, my 'niche'..
my niche..
niche?
yes, niche.
my puppy!
honey,
come closer, I got something to tell you.
you got fooled by me!
I majored in kissing!
you never get drunk!
he's cute..
hello, miss Chun Kyung.
who is he?
my friend.
can I get a room?
ah..sure.
he's in hotel now.
keep that in mind.
yes.
thank you.
oh my!
ouch..
oh my!
he's weird..
this has been right here for 3 hours.. on exactly the same spot..
I kept checking it.
sorry, president,
we had so many guests today, so I couldn't have chance to take care of it..
that way, this hotel's gonna be full of rubbish, huh?
I have no excuse, sir..
clear the corridor now!
creep and clear!
yes, sir.
honey, where have you been?
my puppy.. where have you been?
where?
my..niche!
you have an affair, don't you?
chew it.
why are you just staring at me?
you look like a dog with a bone in its mouth.
you chick..
you called me a dog?
what's the difference between a chick and a dog?
you're..really..
cute, isn't it?
you have slender wrists.
is she pretty?
who?
you must know who she is.
what are you talking about?
you don't have any clue.
you're just suspecting, aren't you?
whatever.
I knew it.
don't try to play tricks on me, okay?
Boksu..
an unfaithful boyfriend is..
worse than a pick-pocket.
keep that in mind, okay?
did you want me to come here to hear that?
no.
to give you these rolls.
do these rolls have any gold in it?
did I have to come here to eat these?
are you training a puppy?
I wanted to make it for you, you know.
I didn't ask you to make it for me.
eat this!
oh..
too much sesame oil in it.
is it too oily?
no,
it's tasty.
'cause I'm so busy,
I told you to come here.
too bad I'm so busy, I can't follow you everywhere you go.
Boksu,
what?
I really want to do that.
so sorry for being busy..
so..
come here immediately whenever I want you, okay?
I'll treat you well.
yes, sir.
but what if you don't come?
then you're gonna dance on me.
no, not that.
I'll kill you instead.
you to hell, understand?
how can you say that to your 'hubby'?
I'm going to work.
your job..
quit your job within 6 months, okay?
you kidding?
it's you who's kidding.
your job is not a 'job'.
you're just playing with other people's money.
so..
quit it, okay?
I'll feed you.
you saw my bankbook, didn't you?
no.
yes, you did.
no, I didn't.
I saw you seeing my bankbook while I was sleeping.
wh..why..
why did you pretend not to see that?
you're embarrassing me to death now!
that's why I'm a cool woman.
know everything but trying to make a decent guy out of you.
Boksu,
let's live happily together with my money.
I'll get that money in half a year.
Mirae,
what?
why do you want to make me a decent guy?
to live with you.
why do you want to live with me?
'cause you're the easiest guy for me.
do you like that?
I'm not interested in other guys.
those jerks are looking down on me.
I hate that.
if you had been a daughter of a rich family,
that would've sounded cocky, you know. sounded like you're a princess or something.
you're right.
if I had been from a rich family,
I wouldn't have been going out with you, right?
exactly!
I would've been in misery, then.
right?
you..
you want me to come to the ball game tonight with Hyun-ji?
you're afraid of Hyun-ji, aren't you?
okay, forget it.
I'll give her a call.
I'll tell her to wait for you in the bakery.
okay, pack it for me.
you're going to the race-track?
race-track?
recently, Junior's hanging around there..
oh, Boksu has come.
how're you doing?
are you Boksu?
what did you have for lunch?
don't squeeze him! for god's sake!
alright, let's get some practice!
hello..
what time is it now?
who are you, by the way?
information desk?
I don't get why I'm getting a call from hotel..
damn..
why is he yelling at me?
it's a motel again..
( drink this. )
( I promise to give your puppy back. )
( well, I can buy you a new puppy. )
( getting a new puppy..)
( can be a solution, right? )
( well..by the way, )
( only genius can be a musician? )
( only genius? )
run!
run! baby run!
hey man!
actually, a while back,
you should've paid me 1 million more.
what the hell are you talking about?
the deal was over an hour ago.
jeeze..
a guy next to me said, he sold the same car to you.
but he got 1 million more.
hey man,
you seem to have lost all the money you got from me.
but don't behave like this.
I'm a busy guy.
you're not the only jerk who's saying this kind of things!
you're so mean..
what's going on?
Boksu!
I said, what's going on?
I got ripped off!
what?
what's going on?
oh, sir.
he wants more money,
after he lost all the money from his car.
take taxi home by this.
go now.
what if I don't?
you don't?
I don't.
doesn't it hurt, Boksu?
you shut up!
thanks for getting my car back!
I said, you shut up.
anyway, that guy is very funny.
giving my car back just because you dared to fight him?
he and you are all funny people!
ouch!
take it.
Boksu,
if you don't be on time..
you bite him! okay?
( L! )
( G! )
( L! G! )
hey!
god..
Hyun-ji will kill me!
Boksu!
where are you going?
I..
I saw you here before..
you were standing behind me..
I lost my wallet that day..
do you..
do you know that I lost it?
do you?
I do.
you do?
I do.
you..
you killed my friend..
get my friend back..
get my friend back!! you creep!!
you creep..
( Boksu! )
( Hyun-ji! )
( Boksu! )
( Hyun-ji! )
( Boksu! )
Boksu! where are you? you wanna die?
my goodness!
this may get dirty.
while I'm away..
were you often scolded by dad?
were you beaten up by him?
I was so worried about you while I was in the hot spring resort in Japan..
but anyway,
the water was excellent!
touch my skin, feels awesome!
and this dress is,
a very nice one.
don't leave it on the floor.
it's recent Japanese style,
so you gotta wear this, right?
'cause you look just like a Japanese girl.
how much is it?
well..
70,000 yen.
about 700,000 won..
why are you looking at me like that?
mom,
yes?
why are you always buying..
dress with ribbons?
'cause it's pretty.
are you crazy about ribbon?
what?
are you crazy about ribbon?
are you?
I'm leaving.
I said, are you crazy about ribbon?
why are you getting mad at me?
did I kill your friend?
you want me to turn off the lamp?
go to bed early today.
yes, it's me..
it's me who killed her..
Kyung..
but..
why did you mention it..
I already forgot about it..
my gosh..
what's this all about..?
what are you doing?
you gotta have a talk with me.
don't worry. I'm paying the fee.
I'm not running away.
money has nothing to do with me.
hey man, follow me.
who's your guardian?
I don't have one.
really?
what the.. go ahead, I'm busy.
okay.
hear my words now.
okay?
this is your brain.
you see the black spot here?
I don't really know what's going on even if I see that.
what is it? in short?
it's a cancer.
a brain tumor.
so, am I gonna die?
I said,
I'm gonna die?
maybe..
what the..
I don't know.
I'm out of here.
how the hell can this happen!!
enough?
