( I can feel the autumn breeze.. )

( it's coming through the window
to my empty heart.. )

( I'm leaning on the cold wall
at the time of dawning.. )

( I wanna see you, but.. )

( I can't come close to you.. )

( it's time for me to leave you.. )

go away! please!

please..

go..

I'm a creep.
leave me alone!

( I might regret my decision.. )

( to leave you now.. )

she got a new hair cut.

pretty.

( I can never forget
my love love for you.. )

( I gotta erase you from my memory.. )

( everybody's passing by with smile.. )

( under the sunshine.. )

( but this world.. )

( looks so weird to me today.. )

( I love you,
but I have to leave you now.. )

how come you really went away?

you should've stopped me.

cut!

okay!

- hey, ex-convict!
- yes.

go get some blood
on your forehead.

- sir,
- what?

well done, right?

yeah.

- hey,
- what? I gotta work.

praise me, please.

you're getting cuter.

but you're still an ex-convict!

why?

if you continue to be like this,

I'll pick your wallet!

calm down, calm down.

( shining K.. )

( you shine on.. )

cut!

okay!

let's move to the next location!

it's so sweet.

sweet..

it feels uneasy
to see you bleeding on your head.

when is this movie gonna be released?

september.

I hope I look cool on the movie.

how can a dead body look cool?

it's a horror movie.

hey,

how about some soju?

you want some pork belly?

anything's fine with me.

I don't like pork belly.
I want some dried squid.

we don't want you to join us tonight.
you've done nothing today.

go home!

I'm going!

Byulli!

hey, don't care about that
and have some watermelon here.

alright, let's have it,
alright..

Mr.Ko Boksu,

may I take seeds off for you?

Hyun-ji, your fingers are dirty.

watermelon got dirty, too.

then I'll have it,

you take this, Mr.Ko Boksu.

- Hyun-ji,
- yes?

do to me just as before.

- can I?
- yes, you can..

why are you being so polite?
you're making me trembling.

that's even scary, you know.

okay, as you wish..

it's totally fucking not sweet!

how could you buy
this shitty melon?

you're always going too far..

you're a 'too-far' girl.

you must have been tired today.
you didn't have to buy this for us.
it's heavy, you know.

aren't you tired?

sure I am.

but today is the first day
I did stunt.

that's why I came here
with watermelon.

no, that's not why..
you came to my house
three days in a row.

you came to my house and
did laundry..cleaning..

you don't have to do all that.

what's wrong with you?
he's doing good to you!

you must be happy about it..

she's so weird today.

what's wrong with that?
you must be happy about it.

don't be nice to me.

and don't come to my house everyday.

why?

I can see you're trying so hard.

every time I see that,
I feel like kicking your butt.

but my pride keeps me
from doing that.

your pride..

don't let me see you trying.

I don't want to see that.

Mirae,

this is all I can do now..

please understand me.

I'm sorry, Mirae..

you know what?

I will be a great singer.

and when the day comes
I'll kick Ki-hong and Jung-kook's butts..

and the crappy substitute singer's, too..

will the day really come?

you don't..

you don't think so?

well, but I like your voice
much much better than hers.

especially when..

you're singing this song,
I just get high.

hey butterfly..

fly through the sadness..

( hey butterfly.. )

( fly through the sadness
of your past.. )

( fly lightly.. )

( lightly, so lightly.. )

( hey, fly into the smoke.. )

( of the woman's cigar.. )

( her eyes are full of tears.. )

( dream over the smokes.. )

( but you can't upset everything.. )

( at one shot.. )

( but I keep on dreaming.. )

( a dream of changing beautifully.. )

hew..

I need to smoke again..

I bought handkerchiefs for you..

I bought handkerchiefs..

oh, I got so nervous..

you're waiting for the president, right?

yes.

he's my father.

I see..

he told me..

to take care of you.

I'm sorry?

take care of..me..?

you're from a band.

I listened to your demo songs.

my father doesn't know
anything about music.
it's me who's taking care of everything.

all you have to do is
to follow my words..

then everything's gonna be alright.

I'm a director here, you know.

I see..

you seem to have waited long.

yes, I did.

you waited so long?

yes.

I'm only 30 minutes late.

yes, you're late.

you don't want to put out an album?

I'm sorry?

I'm so sorry
for being 30 minutes late.

ah..

I haven't waited long..

have I offended you?
son of president?

I said I'm a director!

hey, ex-convict!
you're bleeding on your nose!

what?

oh, my nose.

you don't have to mock
what I'm doing.

you like me that much?

get me some tissue.

why does he wanna see me again?

( hello old car )

I look ugly on this.

no, it's the same as you.

is it only for your car?

you said you're gonna use my pictures
on trucks and everything.

I will.

isn't it illegal
to put photos on the car?

I don't care about the law.

let's go to lunch.

you're always asking me
to have lunch with you.

let's have cold noodles, then.

get on the front seat.

no, you're gross.

it feels like
I'm a chauffeur for you.

take your sister along to lunch.

I don't like..

take her along.

we usually don't have
much of conversation.

yeah, I guessed so.

I don't have much of conversation
with her, either.

let's see what happens
when three of us get together.

I don't want to..

- Kyung,
- oh, how come you're here?

let's have lunch together.

I don't feel like having lunch now.

you heard her?

are you having lunch
only when you 'feel like' having it?
you gotta have it when it's lunch time.

get on!

get on the rear seat.
I'm bored here.

you look very good in the phictures.

stop flattering.

you're eating like a pig..
why don't you say something?

talk to your sister.
don't bother me.

she's quiet by nature.

that's great.

hello,

yeah?

how many cars do you want?

wait a second,
I have the account book in my car.

Mirae..

well..

what you saw that day is..
that's all.

that day, I hold his hand and..

we're not seeing each other any more.

and..

Boksu said
he doesn't want to see me.

so..

it's sorted out right..

you had your hair cut?

yes.

Boksu had his hair cut, too.

I see..

you two seem to be connected
to each other.

well..

is it really sorted out right?

he's back with me.

but his heart is blank.

how can I get his heart back?

will you give his heart back to me,
if I gave this back to you?

will you?

I don't know..

your 'I don't know' is
the scariest word for me.

the hospital is
just in front of us.

I don't know..

go to hospital.

- I don't know.
- go to hospital!

I don't know..

what do you 'don't know'?

you said, your head is aching.

you shouldn't stand the pain.

and you were bleeding on your nose.

you were bleeding on your nose, too!

very little possibility of success
on the operation, you know.

you gotta try every possible solution.

but now you're just
running away from it.

you're a coward.

you wanna live your life
like a coward?

I don't know..I know nothing..

I don't know!

do you know when you're gonna die?

you don't know it!
I don't, either!

everybody doesn't!
so I do not know!

everybody is a coward..

I don't think there's
anyone who's not.

there are.

my daddy,

and,

Mirae,

and,

Chun Kyung.

( what did you just say? )

you heard it?

( yeah. )

what did you hear?

( Chun Kyung. )

get out of here.

go wash your mouth
and come tomorrow.

no, no no..

I shouldn't be in misery like this..

- Hyun-ji,
- yeah?

from now..

I gotta show my brighter side to Boksu.
only that way, my charm can shine on.

and that can get Boksu's mind
back to me..

don't you think so?

you're always saying
you're attractive.

but I don't think you are.

what is so attractive in you?

this!

you think this is attractive?

now I get why he dumped you!

oh, Mirae is..so clever!

what is she doing now, by the way?

( give the 'incompletion' CD and player
back to me. )

( give the 'incompletion' CD and player
back to me. )

oh, president Kim,
don't think too much about
monetary problem.

that kind of band is not for profit,
it can make your company look cool.

oh, you're always
talking about money..

okay, bye!

if it had gone well,
I could have impressed Kyung.

poor Kyung..

but I'm poorer than her..

Kyung is stupid.

stupid.

Kyung,

you stupid.

haven't you spent enough time with him..?
isn't that enough for you?

oops!

you look..

just the same as before..

what happened?
it's almost 12 o'clock.

when did she get out?

she got out in the afternoon.

she said
she's going to the swimming class.

oh yeah?

is she having an affair?

Misun..

I was kidding..kidding, you know.

it's all because of you.

I'm sorry, what?

you yelled at her.
that's why she's not coming home.

Misun, do I look so easy to you?

there's no one who's easy to me
except you..

without you and god,

I can't live on..
I might die of stress..

is she cute?
or annoying?

I don't need it.
I feel stuffy.

good night.

how come you don't rebel against me?

I'm always scolding you, you know.

you never hear my words,

but you never speak against me.

even Kang used to go against me
when he was a kid.

I'm doing it secretly..
without letting you know about it..

how?

I used to hang around your hotel.

what did you just say?

when my friends got drunk
and had no place to sleep,

I always took them to your hotel.

it was not just because
we had no money,

I wanted to take advantage of you.
I think that's all I can take from you.

and that was a big thrill, too.
'cause I was afraid you could catch me.

good night.

you also slept in my hotel with them?

no, I haven't slept in your hotel.

I don't feel comfortable..

at your hotel.

good night.

Kyung,

don't shrug your shoulders
when you're walking.
that makes you look weak.

I get angry
whenever I see weak people.

your mom is weak,
that's enough for me.

let's have breakfast!

daddy!

where's Mirae?

she's dead.

didn't I tell you that
those kind of fishes easily die?

it's you who killed her.
you didn't feed her well.

why does he get angry at me?

Kyung, you lost your friend..

daddy performed a funeral.

he shouldn't have done it
by himself.

it's sad..

no, it's not Mirae,
it's actually..

the journalist!

the rude guy, Mr.Han!

I don't want to go, Mr.Han.

but we must keep on trying
until we make it.

Mr.Han,

yeah,

you've already done
a great favor for me.
I appreciate that.

but no result, you know.

I appreciate your help
even with no result.

I feel really grateful to you
'cause you helped me
in spite of your professionalism as a journalist.

I don't have professionalism.

you did have it before,
didn't you?

you made me throw it away.

oh..she's flirting with a new guy..

I knew, I knew she would..

oh..

I gotta take a picture of that.

he looks much better
than Boksu, though.

by the way,

are you free today?

it's a day-off.

be with me today.

I'm busy.

you can find somebody
to be with you.

when are you coming back to me?

I'm not coming back.

my god..

is he the love of your destiny?

I can never know.

I don't even know my destiny, do I?

how can you go out
with an 'extra' actor
without any confidence about your relationship?

I don't know much about confidence.

what are you talking about?

when I was in college,
I knew a guy.

I thought he was my man of destiny.

I was dead gone on him, you know.

but we finally broke up.
and only 2 weeks after the break-up,

I felt just 'okay'.

before the break-up,
my heart was beating so hard
every time I saw him.

and now I met..

the second man of my life..

and my heart is
beating so hard again.

and..

I haven't seen him for 3 weeks now.

you know what?
but this time..

my heart is aching..

my throat is aching..

and feels like my head is off me..

that's all I know about it..

he doesn't wanna see you?

no.

oh..

what a funny chinese noodle he is!

you're dumped by just an 'extra'?

it hurts my pride so much..

I'm not sure about
whether I'm dumped or not..

but..

it doesn't feel like
it's over yet..

so..

I'm not crying over it..

and I'm just standing the pain now..

you're so blind-minded..

and..

so pretty..

why do you keep attracting me?

the more I know about you,
the more you look pretty..

I envy the ugly jerk!

it's so annoying..

hey ex-convict,
spread the mattress.

yes, sir.

hey, where's the screenplay?

it's in the office.

I'll get it to you.

why is he making a fuss?

he never stops doing something.

did a hard training
make him go mad?

left!

left! left!

let's me hit.

give me a break,
I'm getting training for the movie.

oh, please.

what's wrong?

why?

take some rest.

- why?
- just take some rest!

or lie on the sofa.

- why the hell?
- shut up!

why?

hey, where can I buy a knife?

why?

when I'm doing nothing at all..

a picture of a girl
comes to my head..

get me a knife,
I gotta stab my leg
to take her out of my head.

who is she?

so..

I can't have a rest.

I gotta do something.
I knew it, I knew I'd be like this.

I gotta treat me bad.

why do you make me
think of her!

hey,

you came here
to bring me an umbrella?

yeah!

oh..you're so nice!

let's go.

let's go home.
I'll make you a hot Kimchi pie.

let's go!

sounds..great!

well..but I gotta
go to the filming location now.

filming?
on a heavily raining day like today?

filming must go on!
it has nothing to do with..

heavy rain!
it's true..true!!

I didn't say it's not true.

why did you come here, then?

to bring you an umbrella!

really?

well..it may be true..or..

anyway, don't get moved too much by me.
or I might get scared of..

uh..I gotta go!

he's trying so hard..
he knows what he's done wrong..

Boksu!

don't get too much rain!
you might get cold!

the acid rain will make you bald!
so, be careful!
you know what I'm saying?

oh!

my gosh!

what a..

what a coincidence!

oh my voice tone was too high..

oh..

I didn't mean to see you.

but what else can I do?
when a coincidence come like this.

don't you think so?

right..

oh..

I didn't mean to see you..

whoa..
I was dying to see you..

same here..

you..

kept the handkerchiefs in your bag
since you bought it?

you didn't have to.
your bag got heavy, right?

handkerchiefs are never heavy,
you know.

oh..I keep saying nonsense..

oops!

oh..

you keep spilling something!

you're dirty!

you look like a baby.

oops!

it's on the ground.

let me do it for you.

ouch!
you're stifling me!

oh my my..you're scary.

you're even yelling at me.

rain has stopped.

has it?

it has.

oh, hot sauce on your shirt.

you gotta wipe it out.

don't rub it too hard.
or it's gonna be worn out.

wasn't it dirty?

no, it was cute.

cute?

now you almost came home.
don't worry about that.

have a seat.

uh..I'm..

I'm not that kind of person..

who spills foods on clothes.

I'm saying this
just in case you minunderstand me..

okay.

oh..

it's very strange today.

normally, I'm not that kind of..

I know, I know.

you know?

you're trying so hard
to look pretty.

it's alright if you know it.

oh, it's..

it's almost a bulletin board here.

you wrote it?

no..I didn't..

( give **** back to me )

give back what?

I thought..

you'd call me if you saw it..

you wrote it?

no, I didn't.

give back what?

I thought you'd call me
if you saw it..

you wrote it?

no..

give back what?

I thought you'd call me..

you wrote that?

- no.
- give what?

I thought you'd call me
if you saw it..

you..wrote it?

I said, I didn't.

give what back to you?

I thought you'd call me..

- good bye.
- bye.

- uh..
- yeah?

I can't see you again?

after this?

if we ran into each other
by a coincidence again,

I think it's alright.

maybe it's rather mean, but..

what a relief..

good bye.

wait,

how about shaking hands?

I'm home.

who's he?
your boyfriend?

I saw him through window.

it's my private life.

you don't have to know about it.

Kyung,

if you tell me about your private life,
I'll tell you about mine.

are you ready now?

no.

okay, next time.

she looks lonely.

she's not.

Kyung's got me.

you're not enough for her.

buy her a boyfriend.

she looks lonely
after her friend died..

we can't force her to have a boyfriend,
she'd be in a misery.

a boyfriend can make her happy.

you know..you were
not happy with mom.

it's maybe because..
you're so kind-hearted, right?

say something.

I still remember..

mom was yelling at you
when I was a kid.

she was giving you headaches..

yelling so hard at you..

is that all you can remember?

no, I remember everything.

I'm smart, you know.

do you remember
I used to get drunk everyday?

well..

you were drinking a lot
in the old days.

I could smell it
every time you kissed me.

oh..

that was a bad smell.

shame on you!

can you remember
I used to beat up your mom..?

every time I got drunk..?

can you remember?

no.

I can't remember..

I really can't..

that's good..

you can't remember it.

why did you do that, huh?

why did you beat her up?
why?

I've got nothing to say.

tell me!

why did you beat her up?

I said I don't know!

I don't understand..

I don't really understand
why I beat her up so hard..

maybe I was so thoughtless.

she was too small to beat..

I don't really get
why I beat her up so bad..

it was just..

stifling..

to live with your mom..

do you want me
to find her for you?

will you apologize to her?

no.

it's you who did wrong!
how can you say 'no'?

the sad memories..

which I gave to her..

must have been imprinted in her heart.

what's the use of an apology now?

I will live reflecting on my past..

and feeling guilty for her..

for the rest of my life.

I wish..

I knew it's gonna be like this..

I can remember..

I remember everything
you've done to mom..

I didn't wanna talk about it..
why did you bring it up?

what a funny dad you are..

well..

I can't really help you..

I was really bad..

Boksu's mom..

it's my bad, Boksu..

I'm done with it.

I gotta go.

give me a break!

be more elegant.

you're now at a nice restaurant,
with a cool guy..

why do you keep saying,
'I gotta go'?

Sung-ho is coming back home soon.

his drawing lesson's over
within an hour.

okay, I'll let you go after 1 hour.

please spend some time with me, too.

you're always taking care of
only Sung-ho.

finish it now.

oh, it's..

stuffy here.

lady Chung,

how about taking a walk?

don't get close to me.

people will think
we're having an affair.

oh, you're such a dreamer!

how can a young guy like me
have an affair with..

an old lady like you?

it's so hot today.

- mom,
- what?

are you still going out
with that sun-glass guy?

the horribly thin guy?

you're at it again!

is he taking good care of you?

now you're annoying me.

I'm going!

if he's good to you,
it's okay to go out with him.
if you like to, you can marry him.

what are you trying to say now?

I really wish you to be happy..

oh..

don't touch me!
I'm going!

mom, I really think..

you need a guy to be with.

you're still too nice..

just to grow old like this.

but..

you need a guy
who don't get angry at you..

even when you're yelling at him..

or even when you're throwing
chicken wings to him.

you need those kind of guy.

but when you find a nice guy,
you don't move first.

just let him come to you..
and..let me see him!

I know 'guy' better than you
'cause I'm also a 'guy'!

one day, you said,
there's not gonna be a guy..

who can take a real care of you.

but I think..there's still gonna be
at least 'one' right guy for you.

don't you think so?

men and women..
they need each other!

they are supposed to get along with!

if that's not the case..

we can't live!

don't you think so?

you mean,
every straw shoe has its own pair?

it's too late for me.

why do you think
you're a straw shoe?

no way!
you're a..

italian designer's shoe!

the extremely expensive one!
the authentic one!

you gotta believe that.

you're a really expensive person.

you gotta believe that.

you still have a long way to go!
in your life!

Boksu,

uh?

thank you.

you agree to what I said?

I don't think it's a good idea
to think so.

I don't want to fall down
from that kind of hope again.

do you know
what I'm scared of?

if I fell down again,

I think I'd just give up..
without getting angry about it.

just giving up all hopes..

and just laughing about it..

I think I can't get up again.

so..

I should never fall down again.

I will live very carefully.

very very carefully.

and I won't have any hope.

why are you here?
you gotta hide yourself.

I won't hide.

we might get caught by Mirae!

let her catch us.

I don't want to live a confused life.

everybody's living a confused life.
and they regret it in the end.

we should say 'yes' when it's yes.
and 'no' when it's no!

saying 'yes' when it's 'no'..
that's the stupidest thing.

now, I like you more than Mirae,

maybe someday I might regret my decision..

but I have no choice,
I gotta do what I wanna do now!

I can regret it later, not now.

if you agree to my idea,
I'll choose to do that.

is it okay for you?

yes.

thank you.

hey, Mirae!

Mirae!

Boksu,

Boksu!

Boksu,

Boksu!

Boksu!

Boksu!
