SCRIPT by In Jung-ok

DIRECTED by Park Sung-su

hey,

yes?

why are you doing this?

don't keep following me,

or I'll tell your girlfriend
about it..

you can go now.

it must hurt..

your face..

yes.

I didn't ask you to be
beaten up for me..

okay, good bye.

thank you..

for..

being my friend today.

and..

for fighting with my dad
for me..

( it felt like.. )

( I could never see you again.. )

( so I couldn't.. )

( I couldn't look at you.. )

do you know my Chun Kyung?

Chun Kyung?

she's surrounded by guys.

( Chun Nak-kwan )

Chun Kyung.

Kyung.

she has a single character name.

Kyung.

dear Kyung.

( maybe it's too late.. )

( that's written in my heart.. )

( promise me.. )

( that you'll never cry.. )

( I'm gonna be alright.. )

( don't worry about me.. )

( 'till the day I die.. )

( I'll be happy with.. )

( the love for you.. )

( I'll be just happy with that.. )

open the bathroom door.

why are you doing things
that you're not used to do?

oh, you're awake?

I think the steak I had for lunch
made some trouble in my stomach.

but you always open the door
even when you're doing that.

am I too fat?

uh..what do you think
me going on a diet?

if you want,
I'll lose some weight.

I'm not interested
in your fat..

Kyung is..

my daughter, right?

I don't know
why I hate her so much.

while I don't hate Kang.

hey, man.

why are you following me?

why are you running?

'cause I'm late for my work.

what?

where did you get your hat?

you like this one?

oh, man..

follow me.

how much is it?

5000 won.

it's 5000 won.

doesn't look good on you.

hope you don't buy it.

Boksu..

it's because you came late.

I got bored waiting for you..

and his wallet was about to fall
out of his pocket.

he was destined to lose his wallet!

Boksu..

it's my fault.

no, my fault.

what?

I taught you how to pick it.

oh, please..

okay, I'll be careful
with my way of living.

hi,

eat this.

you wanna thank me?

yes,

but why do you give it to me?

you,

don't come down to the basement.

Byulli,

she gave it to us.

you..

you didn't bring it,
did you?

what?

I got you!

you stole the chicken before.

and you tried to steal it again today, right?

what a witch you are..

thief hubby and thief wife!

hey,

that chicken..

Ko Boksu gave that to you
for the money he stole from you.

know what I'm saying?

Ko Boksu?

Ko Boksu.. Ko Boksu..

Ko Boksu..

Mr.Junior!

yes?

stop jerking around
and bring some wire and harness out.

got it!

and you pull the wire.

over there.

I said, 'wire and harness'!

not among these?

no!

got it.

didn't you say
you guys got some experience on stunt?

what are you doing now?

just pulling the wire..

director! you okay?

director!

Boksu!

you okay?

( hey you.. )

( you left me.. )

( pretty earlier than I expected.. )

how about going without
the keyboard line?

that would sound better.

as you please.

you can write real nice songs..

and you're a very good singer.

plus, you're pretty.

you got the point.

but she's not normal,
you know.

she gets panic on the stage.

you got the point!

by the way,

no club wants us to play lately.

it's all because of me!

you know it.

hello.

open your email now.

it's an urgent thing!

give me 30 minutes.

where are you going?

guess where she's going to.

no idea.

to meet a boy.

( from : Mr.Han )

( muscle ^_^ )

what is he doing?

you saw my muscle?

yeah.

( did I.. )

( new mail from Mr.Han. )

( did I make you sad?
smile for me, Kyung. )

( you got a crush on me, right? )

( muscle ^_^ )

that's not muscle,
that's just fat.

what are you mumbling?

ouch..

ouch!

who taught you about stunt?
you guys don't even seem to know basics.

get me the white book.

there's one more copy.
you take that.

what's it for, sir?

a book, you know.

oh..do we have to
read this?

if I knew we had to,
I wouldn't have started this.

I thought
all I need is just my body.

and I thought I can make big money
'cause it's a dangerous job.

wasn't it because
it looked cool?

I'm not a kid,
I didn't start it to look cool.

I don't think
I can translate it before I die.

I can't do this.

my life has no time for this.
I'm busy.

you're busy?

I am.

I have no time.

Mirae!

what's wrong with you?

I don't know
what's wrong with my stomach.

I'm going to restroom.

you're going to shit?

is that it?

yes.

is it the 2 million won song?

if you don't like it,
we'll make another one.

you don't have any pride?

you guys throw away your own song
just to earn 2 million won?

because we wrote this crappy song
just for money.

what?

calm down.

songs are usually written
by trial and error.

that's the way it goes.

if you don't like it,
forget it!

'cause we don't need money.

that's right.

what are you saying?

is she drunk?

is she also in your band?

no, she's a daughter
of the landlady here.

she's just a friend of us.

I'm also in this band.

so what?

you are so hopeless.

Kyung is coming soon.

I didn't have to come here,

but I wanted to check it by myself.
but you guys are so hopeless
in this basement.

what?

what's the use of company song
for used car business!

don't waste your money on us,

and you better stop ripping off people
by selling your fucking used cars!

oh, yeah?

oh calm down,

Kyung is coming soon.

forget it!

it's over!

oh, didn't you have any trouble
finding our place?

he's very cool.

what?

and I like the song too.
it sounds a bit sexy.

you guys gotta have pride,
even in the basement.

you!

you marry my sister.

what?

I have to go.

hey,

who's tougher?
me? or him?

oh, it's money.

let me touch it.

you didn't have to come here.
you can check the song at home.

I wanted to see how you're living here.

your studio..
you better tidy it up a bit.

it's like an waste basket, you know.

you're living here?

yeah,

so what?

hey,

what's wrong with you?

get off me.

oh, you gotta go see a doctor.

start your car.

okay.

oh, you're sweating a lot.

don't rub my make-up.

how about this one?

have any special dictionary
on your mind?

which one is the
best english dictionary?

I guess the most expensive one
is the best one.

then, I'll take this.

alright.

( clarinet lesson book )

oh, I feel like dying..

it's on your appendix.
you're gonna get an operation very soon.

no way..

why?

I don't wanna get a scar on my body.

stop saying stupid things..
you wanna see your stomach exploding out?

you go away!

if I go away,
who's paying the fee?

call Boksu for me, okay?

you can find his number..

on my cell-phone.

you're so talkative..

what are you guys doing?

doctors are fucking lazy..

I don't want a scar..

I can't wear tops any more..

don't make any scar on my body..

she's very funny.

how do you know her?

she's a model
for my company.

( Boksu )

( Mirae )

( Mirae! )

( hello? )

( Boksu )

( what's up, slim girl? )

( are you now checking
if I'm cheating on you? )

h..hello?

he..

hello?

Ko Boksu?

yes.

your girlfriend is
now in hospital.

come to the Ahn-yang hospital now.

you can stay here tonight,

but you can go home tomorrow,
if you feel okay.

here's the medicine for you.

your prescription's here, too.

and you have to take rest
for 1 week.

so take care of yourself.

good bye.

where are you going?

don't go away.
I don't want to be alone here.

soon..

Boksu is coming soon..

you can take the watch.

I'm sorry, what?

you were drooling after my watch,
weren't you?

no, I don't want to take it.

oh..

you take it!

hey,

that's a very special one to me.

that's the very first gift
I've ever been given since I was born.

now, can you feel
how much I appreciate..

your help?

you helped me not only this time..

Mir..

oh, Mirae!

oh,

what happened?

I thought I was dying..

what happened?

she had an operation
on her appendix.

she..

gave this to me.

I can give it to her,
can't I?

yeah, you can.

good bye.

bye, thank you so much.

Boksu, come here.

one minute.

I said, come here now.

just a min..

I heard that
everybody's cheating these days..

got nothing to say?

just..

can't help minding her.

get my money
from my account,

and give the money you stole
back to her.

then you'll be fine.

it's because of the money..

is it the money..?

why are you giving me your money?
I have to pay it back by 'my' money.

and I'll buy you
a more expensive watch.

that's a cheap one.

doesn't it hurt?

is the anesthetic still working?

once you betray me,

you'll die..

( it ended.. )

( just like a daydream.. )

( the time we spent together.. )

thief..

people are annoyed..

it's because they're stupid.

I'm hungry now,
what else can I do?

it's absolutely okay
to enjoy movie with some foods.

how about going out?

no,

I gotta write an article
about this one.

want some coke?

it was so boring.

let's go.

Mr.Han!

oh, president Kim!

you came here to report?

is she also a journalist?

or a musician?

no,

she's my girlfriend.

oh, you're so beautiful.

don't hesitate to contact me.

I have tons of records.

let's go, Kyung.

Mr.Han,

I AM a musician.

oh, did I hurt your feeling?

I am not sure
I'm your girlfriend yet,

but I am a musician for sure.

oh, you're easily hurt.

Kyung!

Kyung,

how do you like it?

like what?

I got a new car,
'cause you didn't like my convertible last time.

your salary is really high, huh?

I can't buy this by my salary.

my parents left me a big fortune.

today, I'm going by myself.

no, you promised to be with me.

why are you making me angry!

did I scare you?

hey, you're a coward.

get on.

please have some.
it's almost got burned.

you like roasted beef, don't you?

you're so stubborn.

you don't want to talk to me?

oh, sgt.Park!

long time no see!

yeah, I missed you.
how are you doing?

not bad.

your girlfriend?

I'm not sure she's my girl yet.

but she's a musician.

oh..you're nice.

these days,
even singers are pretty like you.

I guess you're gonna be a star.

- keep in touch.
- yes, I will.

when I was a rookie journalist,

I used to hang around
in police station.

oh, that was tough.

he's a detective.
he helped me a lot.

please talk to me.

wearing a glove
in summer days?

he must be crazy.

oh, I didn't notice that.

you're very sensitive.

you're indeed an artist!

Kyung, I'm trying.

give me a smile.

you're driving me mad!

I said I'll take you home.

tonight,
we had not so good time.

not a very good sunday night.

miss Chun Kyung,

I understand you're offended.

but..

when I'm with people from
the music industry,

I can't say that
my girl is a musician.

when I'm with you,
it's private.

but if I said to them
that you're a musician,

they would take it
as an official thing.

you know what I mean?

no, I don't.

in short,
they'd think I got confused
between private and public matters.

it's gonna be like,
using my status to promote my girlfriend.

you don't want me to be like that,
do you?

Mr.Han,

now you're talking to me.

Mr.Han,

if I called this record company,

and told them that
I'm a musician who's a close friend of Mr.Han,

and I'd like to put out an album
through this company,

then this guys gonna sign our band.
that's what you mean, right?

do you think I'm that kind of person?

being in a miserable band,
and using you to get a recording contract..

is that what you're worried about?

every time I'm asked about my job,
I'm saying that I'm a 'musician'.

then they ask me
whether I was on TV or not.

I'd say I'm not a recording musician yet,
and they'd think I'm sort of a loser.

but there's nothing
I can do about it.

because making music is..

still my job.

why do I have to pretend
not to be a musician?

for your professionalism
as a music journalist?

my job is not your girlfriend,

but a keyboardist of a band.

I want to tell the world
that I'm a member of a band.

because..

I love this job so much.

I thought she's just a baby.

but she's very smart.

where's my book?

daddy!

where did you put my book?

study in your room.

my room?

yes, your room.

I should have made
your room earlier.

why didn't you ask me
to clean the room together?

wasn't it tough for you?
please take care of your body,
you're old.

it's a gift to you.
how could I ask you to make your gift?

use the small desk
for the time being.

I'll get you better one later.

hew..

feels like everything's in place.

it has been like..
something's wrong..

you gotta enroll in an academy
to get prepared for the entering exam.

answer me.

alright.

I'm going to college.

yes, I'm going.

you..

daddy,

yeah?

you made a room for me..

but..

I might leave the room vacant
for a while..

but even then..

even when I'm away,
even when my room is vacant..

don't feel too lonely..

I'm not a kid!

you're so funny.

why did he make my room..?

I can't even die..

because of daddy.

okay, I won't die.

what a cushion!
where did he get it?

one more time it gets torn down,

I'll just throw it away.

it's so worn out.

it's done.

use this.

you're supposed to draw mom and dad,
aren't you?

yes, it's dad.

no,

can't you remember
your daddy's face?

it's not your daddy.
it's Boksu.

Boksu has curly hair.

you want me to show
your dad's picture?

Boksu is daddy to me.

Sung-ho..

yes?

it seems like
there's just one thing
I've done for you.

it's Boksu.

isn't it?

yes.

draw brows on his forehead,

so that your teacher can think
he's your dad.

hey, pretty.

what's the problem with you?

what kind of guy is it?

what are you saying..

tell me.

I smelt something.

Byulli,

yeah?

a guy makes me feel..

feel fancy
and gives me fun.

but at the end,

I feel so small and depressed.

and the other guy?

uh?

the other guy
who's not fancy
and doesn't give you fun..

he makes..

a nice and good woman out of me.

hatred is..

just going away..

the potato..

no, he's not okay.

he's an enemy of you guys,
isn't he?

plus, he also got a bitchy girlfriend.

and his level is way below
compared to yours.
he just doesn't fit you.

take it.

you're a gross..

what's gross?

she's always saying
that kind of words.

just forget about her.

gross means that you're so..

honey, where did you buy this soup?

who's honey?

oh, it's from 'natural chicken soup'.
that restaurant was quite crowded.

oh, it's not bad,
thank you honey.

honey?

the scar on my stomach.

I don't like it, honey.

honey?

it can be fixed.

I'll let you have
plastic surgery on that
when I make a big money, okay?

- what are you saying?
- oh, really?

you..

your nose? your eyes?
you name it! I'll fix it!

you guys are just ignoring me!

hey, old woman,
either you stay or leave.

you want me to leave?

you know it.

calm down, Hyun-ji.

no, I'm leaving
because you want me to calm down.

she's so smart
to take her soup out with her.

yes, she is.
she's gonna save a big money.

right, she's my sister,
you know.

did I give 3 boxes of this
to you?

you did, that's she said.

that's too heavy
for her to carry.

you got no manners.

why?
you miss the money?

Boksu, get me my medicine.

you gotta wait 30 minutes
after dinner to take it.

I know,
but maybe I'll forget about it
after 30 minutes.

you're eating so well,
my pig.

here you are.

uh..

Mirae..

yeah?

why did you buy
one more box of the natural food mix?

I don't know.

Hyun-ji said
it's from me.

it's from you.

why did you say
you bought it, then?

I didn't say I did.

when did I buy..

one more box for you?

huh?

I don't remember.

does it matter?

why are you talking about it?

well..I'm just suspecting that..

my memory is getting worse..

you are not an old man, are you?

I took it home.

it was in front of the band studio.
so I took it home.

what?
you're pissed?

but nothing you can do about it now.
'cause I took it home.

it's not like that..

let me tell you.
I don't have 5 million to pay back
to her right now.

so I gave that to her as an interest
until I make that amount of money.

it's the best solution
from my dumb brain.

maybe it's a very dumb solution..

but..sharing foods is a good thing..

that's what I want to do..

how could you just blow it?

she's not the only one
whom you pick-pocketed.

why do you mind her so much?

a person died because of me!

and I came to know that.

what can I do?

pay back by this.

I told you I don't need your money.

no! pay back right now!

and take her out of your head.

give this money to her
and pay back to me!

I don't want to be a jerk
who takes money from his girl.

don't be a fool
to give money away to a jerk!

that can become a habit.

I'm leaving.

do what I told you to.

what do you think
you're doing now, huh?

your mind..

two thirds of your mind
has already gone to her.

if you don't pay back to her right now,

your guilty feeling
will take the other one third away..

away from me!

Mirae..

I'm so worried to death!

she's younger than me,

prettier than me,

and she's tall.

and must be from a good school.

and she's very kind-hearted.

and..

she doesn't hate you.

you're a thief who stole her money.

it's so weird situation
and I'm angry about it!

I don't wanna get jealousy to death.

Boksu, I wanna stay cool!

no, I can't pay
the money back like this..

( I didn't steal his wallet. )

( he dropped it. )

( I didn't steal it. )

did you hear me?

I saw it.

saw what?

you seemed not to..

not to steal again..

I didn't steal it.

I kept saying 'I didn't steal it'!

I didn't!

I thought you're a good person..

Chun Kyung!

don't call my name
with your dirty mouth.

my name is not for your mouth.

now I know why..

why the jail is needed..

now I know why..

why people treat ex-convicts like dirt..

I thought a girl called Kyung is..

a very special person..

that was my mistake..

a terrible mistake..

the money I owe to you..

is now done with this.

we're never gonna see
each other again!
