WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS
You must've forgotten already.
-Let me remind you. -Let me go!
I told you to get lost!
I have a bad temper!
She also has a temper! Everyone does!
CAMELLIA
You're driving me nuts.
Hey.
Didn't I tell you to get lost while I'm being nice?
Well, consider this your last day.
You.
Did you just grab my Dongbaek by the collar?
You choked her first.
What do you mean, I choked her?
You did choke me!
Then what happens after is considered as self-defense. Got it?
What's with all these people in the neighborhood?
There won't be any witnesses.
I was smacked in the head with a blunt weapon.
Sir, please calm down.
Your injuries and the fact that you were outnumbered
do make it look like a one-sided attack, but--
Officer, see for yourself.
-Shit. -Okay, okay.
That bitch hit me with a blunt weapon.
And you choked her!
You strangled her. That's attempted murder!
Sit. Please stay seated.
-Sir. -What now?
Damn it.
I know quite a lot about the law.
I've run into it quite a bit.
Chief.
Let's just settle. I wouldn't mind that.
I'll let her off the hook this once.
You.
Get out. Come on.
-What? -Get lost.
Take this somewhere else. Go on.
Even the police officers in this neighborhood have lost it.
I believe that everyone has a shot at redemption.
However, whether it happened or not,
those who were charged with attempted rape or murder
aren't humans to me.
-So get lost. -Damn it!
I'm not a human being to you?
Good.
Now I can be the animal that I am.
You.
You heard him, right?
-Consider yourself on my radar. -Hey!
Are you threatening Dongbaek right now?
That's right, I am. So guard her safely.
Maybe one day, it won't end at just an attempt.
Right?
That little...
Hey, take it up with me.
Don't
mess with them.
What's that expression I see?
It's one I've never seen you make.
I'll return by the end of the month,
which means you have no business coming back here, right?
You only thought about yourself in the present,
but you have a weakness now.
It's nice to see you finally putting down roots.
Is this your home now?
As if. She and I aren't even friends.
A home isn't anything special.
It's just a place you feel comfortable in.
We're strangers,
so just let them be.
Now I don't have to go around to search for you anymore.
Hyang-mi, let's go eat some meat.
Dongbaek, make sure to always stay by my side.
That weasel just now and the guy who feeds the cats...
There are a few I'm worried about.
It's like you're arresting me, though.
Hurry up already! They're going to close soon.
Sure thing.
Good job, everyone.
Are you some kind of thug? Why did you bring the roller?
-You must be crazy. -Dongbaek, come on.
Right, I'm sorry.
Dongbaek! Over here.
-Pil-gu, you're here. -Pil-gu!
-Come here. -Have a seat.
How was the academy?
What's this? Why are we suddenly having meat?
Zip it and eat up.
You know how greedy your mom is.
Hyang-mi.
Eat up.
A home isn't anything special.
It's just a place you feel comfortable in.
What a weird place to call home.
All right.
Ma'am, aren't you drinking tonight?
Why do you want me drunk?
A mom who abandoned her daughter.
A bumpkin who even adores someone else's child.
Excuse me. Can we get a soda for the kid?
Are you trying to lose weight again? Why aren't you eating?
The kid who's the oasis of this family.
Hyang-mi, snap out of it and eat up.
And the woman all these people love.
Dongbaek.
-Dongbaek. -Yes?
-Here, have a wrap. -Me?
-Thank you. -It's nothing.
It was wrapped with love.
DON'T FORGET ME
Gosh, thank you.
Your hair has gotten really long.
Right.
Why aren't you asking me?
"Who's the thug?"
"What in the world have you been up to?"
It's normal to ask.
There's no need.
I've always been curious. Why did you take me in?
You know I lied about my age, name, and experience.
You have nowhere to go.
Excuse me. I saw a sign saying you're hiring a part-timer.
You're the first person in my life
who noticed that I have nowhere to go.
Is the world bright in your eyes?
Is it nice and soft?
Our lives are both shitty, but why are you the only one who's so good-natured?
Enough with the nonsense. I'll give you a raise,
so save up the extra when you can.
Will the raise
help me buy a house and then a family?
We're abandoned, under-educated, poor, and have no connections.
Our lives are already screwed, right?
We were given the worst hand possible, so why try hard to live?
It's just pathetic.
You talk as if it's over.
No one knows the outcome until you've fully lived it.
I'm saying we were screwed from the beginning.
I bet you think about helping the poor
when you hear about them on TV.
But truth be told, when wallets go missing in schools,
kids from broken families are doubted first.
You know it all too well.
Don't go anywhere and stay with me.
Here, have a bite.
This is why I hate you. Why do you always peel this for me?
Don't leave.
Just don't, all right?
I never really felt embarrassed about anything.
But you're starting to make me feel that way.
We both had shitty lives, but I'm the only one who messed up.
It makes me feel worse.
We all hide our weakest spots.
That's why I'm going to leave.
I should.
I must.
However, some people are just too transparent.
Meanwhile, there are some people that are impossible to read.
Hey, Heung-sik. Do you still adore cats?
Didn't you raise one as a boy?
I've known him for 30 years.
I don't know why, but I just love cats.
Gosh. Your hands must feel stuffy.
It isn't easy to keep wearing those gloves.
I've made my peace with it, but people find it uncomfortable.
What? Oh, I see.
That was a mistake.
Dad, I'm heading out.
ONGSAN HARDWARE
Should you lock that when he's inside?
I'd feel anxious if I don't.
The world is a scary place.
Another mistake.
Right, of course.
So what's with that thug from last night?
He had a weird gaze.
What? His gaze?
You pay attention to people's gazes?
People give off specific vibes, right?
Meanwhile, this guy's eyes...
I just can't read them.
So,
is Hyang-mi okay?
Right, of course.
She eats, drinks, and passes out drunk.
You know how mentally strong she is.
That's not true at all.
She only pretends to be fine with everything.
Hold on.
Do you...
have feelings for Hyang-mi?
That's absurd.
Gosh. You talk as if it's so easy to like someone.
Who knows, right?
Unbelievable.
Are people really that hard to read?
"The police sent a sample of the fish that the street cat ate
to the National Forensic Service."
Are you telling me to send this to the NFS?
"The NFS was asked to see if there were traces of agricultural pesticides."
The police did a fine job.
You!
Is that so?
Let's say that traces of pesticides are found.
How are we supposed to know who put it there, though?
It could've been the guy who put out the food or someone else.
This is from the guy that feeds the cats, so send in a separate sample.
What a load of nonsense.
By the way, I hope you're still searching for a Jeong-suk born in the 1960s.
You punk. How can I find someone when we don't know her exact age?
There are 6,000 Jeong-suks in Korea.
Unbelievable.
I guess it's up to the future son-in-law to find out then.
I need to ask her date of birth.
But what's with that sour expression?
-How much was that this time? -Sorry?
-Do you have lots of money? -Mom. Seriously.
Hold on. Dumplings shouldn't be this big.
You'll never make money at this rate.
Gosh. If one is ditsy, the other should at least be clever.
This is just worse.
Are you sure it has to be him?
This came for Pil-gu.
No way. What's this?
When is he supposed to study if he has all these toys?
My gosh. He even sent him his credit card.
Annoying jerk.
He is ridiculous.
He earns 1.2 billion won, so what'll be the max on this?
Pil-gu has a rich parent now.
Want a glass of beer?
It serves you right for stuffing the dumplings in.
They were delicious.
So Dongbaek...
You know, I have money, too.
Sorry?
I can buy Pil-gu a new bag if he needs one.
I work in the public sector, remember?
And even though I have to share,
I'll inherit Baekdu Marinated Crab later.
I do quite well for myself compared to the people of Ongsan.
To be honest...
If I may say so, I'm a little annoyed.
Why did I have to compete
with someone who's worth 1.2 billion won a year?
It's not like many earn that much in Korea.
All that money just because he plays baseball?
I don't even have one-tenth of that.
Why are you kissing my hand when I'm annoyed?
-Kiss me on the lips instead. -Yong-sik.
I don't even have 1 percent of 1.2 billion won.
I have no money saved up, and I have to move out.
Even though I need money,
the gold card only made me think of one thing.
"Why is Yong-sik gobbling down his soup?
Is he upset?"
I'm not one to get upset over these things.
I bet I'm the only woman who receives flowers every day.
You bring me flowers every day,
and I let you eat dumpling soup for free.
How's that not luxurious?
Right?
You're so annoying.
You just know how pretty you are.
You, with that face like a round bun.
A round bun?
I can't believe these flowers cost 20,000 won.
I'm a man who buys flowers with money enough for 1.2kg of pork.
You don't have to keep saying that.
Then how would you know?
Just give her money instead.
We've already run out of vases. Stop buying flowers.
What are you talking about?
Here... There...
Look. Check this out.
Any container can be a vase.
It's the same as how Dongbaek looks sexy even in plain rubber boots.
You and your words.
Sorry?
Take it outside, will you?
What's this?
My goodness.
Hyang-mi.
Are you a squirrel or something?
It's like you're hoarding acorns.
Why do you always steal lighters?
I don't know. Maybe it's because I'm lonely.
Stealing things fills the void in my heart.
Does...
Heung-sik come by here often?
He's here almost every day.
I TOLD YOU NOT TO BE A JOKE
I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU EVERY DAY EVER SINCE THAT DAY
I guess I'll use a soju bottle as a vase.
Right.
Wasn't there...
a lighter burn here?
Hyang-mi!
Did you burn this off with a lighter?
This is a non-smoking zone.
I think I saw something similar.
What's with these marks?
From where?
Do people burn parts of their own dining table?
Whose dining table?
Did you actually see it?
Why are you so curious? I just saw it at a friend's.
Which friend was that?
So you definitely saw something?
I'd rather you respect my privacy.
Hyang-mi.
A letter came for you.
CAMELLIA
This is what you get for crossing the line.
CLAIM FOR DAMAGES CERTIFICATION OF CONTENTS
These kinds of people make me stay the person I am.
I almost matured for a second there.
AROUND 10 A.M., GOT ON BUS TO SEOUL
"As your children grow,
be the Superman that protects their future."
"As your children grow...
-be the Superman -Jong-ryeol.
that protects their future."
Jong-ryeol.
"Be the Superman that protects their future."
Jong-ryeol.
How did you get in here?
I came by bus.
This is a restricted area.
Well, I know someone here.
-Who... -Jong-ryeol.
Jong-ryeol?
Pil-gu's dad.
Maybe I should just kill her.
You have money, so why take the difficult route?
Do you think I've never dealt with people like you before?
If I show any kind of generosity,
I'll become a personal ATM machine.
Why would I agree to that?
Did you know that I'm friends with Jessica online?
Tell her to check her messages.
In your dreams.
Do you think I'd let someone like you to suck money out of me?
That's rich for someone who sent a certification of contents.
Why are you doing this?
I feel bad that this is your life.
Hey, Jong-ryeol...
What?
Since you're completely clueless,
I'll address you accordingly.
When those who have so much to lose faces those who have nothing to lose,
the latter mostly wins.
You see, the latter has nothing to lose.
There's no tomorrow.
Who do you take me for--
I bet you're anxious to death.
This is you being punished.
You really shouldn't have abandoned Dongbaek.
Why is a dirty pig judging my life?
Do you have a death wish?
That's how it is for clueless morons.
They have to suffer things themselves to acknowledge reality.
Don't admit to anything. She's a divorce attorney, remember?
She'll take everything you have.
What do you mean?
Why do you keep raising me to be a coward?
How dare you raise your voice at me!
Mom. Didn't you say that Dad's lies gave you capsulitis?
But now you're telling me to lie.
Would you rather have her take everything and kick you out?
Even this house is in her name.
Just let her have it. She can have everything.
She's worth...
all of that.
You imbecile.
Are you a romantic now?
Why not be one sooner?
Unbelievable.
You're just as idiotic as your dad.
Why do you keep calling me?
Must you answer Dad's calls like that?
Do sons always turn out like their dads?
Today, 3 p.m., Ongsan Lake.
-Why? -I'm going to push you in.
Why do so many people want to kill me?
ONGSAN LAKE
Get in!
Get in before someone sees you.
But I'm cold!
Pedal, damn it!
Where are we going? I said I'm cold.
The governor's clerk's sister-in-law...
saw us at the coffee shop.
I'm a politician of this neighborhood, so there are eyes on me everywhere!
You talk as if you'll be the president or something.
Whatever. The cat's out of the bag now.
You're not getting a single penny.
I'm reporting you for blackmail
in order to clear my name,
so bring it on!
If your conscience is that clean, why are you in such a hurry?
You've seen my wife, haven't you?
If you wish to live, you have to listen up.
You have to bear witness.
Not a false one, but a real one.
Darn it. Did you get me on this boat to say that?
Just text me, will you?
Tell her I paid for your motel room, but I didn't go up with you.
Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?
Tell her that I didn't even know your room number.
Go kneel down to my dear Ja-yeong and bear witness!
You never mentioned your wife on our way to Yangpyeong,
but now she's your dear Ja-yeong?
Do men take classes on falling a step behind?
You don't want to get involved in my life either, right?
Why are you making such a fuss?
I wasn't the first to hit on you.
It was you. Why did you give me the eye cream?
That wasn't for you. It was for Dongbaek.
What?
Darn it, I couldn't throw it out or give it to her, so I gave it to you.
Fine, whatever.
I already knew that was the case.
But you went waterskiing with me.
You're the one who suggested that we become friends or something.
To be frank,
I didn't want to have an affair with you.
I just...
You just what?
I just wanted to show off.
What?
All these people who are well-off think I'm a joke,
but you seemed just like me, so I could show off to you.
How dare you compare me to you? Do you think I'm as stupid as you?
You think you're cool and in the know, don't you? But you aren't.
You don't know a thing about me.
After seeing you for a while,
I realized you're just like a stray dog that was never loved.
A dog that shows their stomach when I simply reach out to them,
and they go, "Look at me, look at me!"
And when I tell them to stop,
they turn the entire house into a mess to get more attention from me.
You're just as sad as them.
My life turned into a mess after I got involved with you.
If you
really want to get eye cream from someone, don't be like that.
You'll just embarrass yourself.
Let us please stop getting humiliated, all right?
Then why were you going to give that eye cream to Dongbaek?
Let me ask you for once.
Why do you all love her?
How is she different from me? We're almost the same.
You aren't.
I told her that she could stay
in return for firing you.
But she rejected my offer.
-What? -Being loyal won't pay her bills,
but that girl was very firm on that.
You should
try to live more like a human.
But I'm not the one to talk.
If I live like a human,
who'll live like a beast?
INTERNATIONAL CALL
Just tell me the amount.
What? I don't have 30 million won.
I gave you all the money that I earned!
EPISODE 24 WILL AIR SHORTLY
So who do you like more?
You don't hate your dad who bought you a backpack, do you?
Should I stop asking such difficult questions?
Instead of telling you who I like more,
I can tell you who I hate more.
Who do you hate more?
They're almost on the same level,
but I hate the Superman guy more.
Why?
That show, The Return of Superman. I watched the whole thing.
He's apparently
the biggest fool for his daughter.
Then is that girl supposed to be my sister?
What should I say?
More sundae, please.
That girl. The girl who poops on her back.
Babies are all like that.
He really adores her.
He keeps calling her his princess.
She's just a bald girl who poops.
Is that why you're jealous?
I mean, it's just unfair.
He can just adore her, then. Why does he come after me?
That cheap jerk.
Why did he break the kid's heart by going on that show?
So I absolutely hate the Superman guy,
and I kind of hate Mr. Hwang.
Goodness, Pil-gu. You chose the best side.
You're so smart.
-Grandma. -Yes?
Should we go to the arcade?
You know my name.
Why do you keep calling me Dongbaek when Mom is around?
Goodness.
You couldn't have taken after anyone to be this smart.
You have reached your destination.
That dirty jerk. He came here so often.
Why do you want to see him?
He doesn't look that much like him anyway.
Once we get some of his hair, run a DNA test, and sue him,
we'll definitely win.
We'll definitely win what? He doesn't even look much like him.
Of course, he does. He looks exactly the same.
One stir-fried pork, please.
Just one?
There are two of you here.
You're crazy. How can you think about your diet right now?
I can't eat pork.
Just give us two servings.
Wait, little boy.
How old are you?
Are you about eight?
Then when were you born?
My boy, you need to go to the academy.
Is this a bar?
It's a regular restaurant.
By the way,
aren't you on that Superman show?
He knows you.
-You were in front of my school before. -What?
If you don't eat pork,
why are you here?
Well, you know...
When is your mom coming?
-My mom is good at fighting. -What?
I told her to hit people in the nose since I was little.
-Goodness. -Oh, no.
How dare you touch him?
Mom! Hey, lady! Are you insane?
Goodness. Are you insane?
Yes, I have dementia.
-What? -She met him first.
How dare you be so arrogant?
How dare you talk to me like that?
She may not have been his legal wife,
but she lived with him longer than you did.
The law may not acknowledge that,
but the time they spent can't disappear.
Then what? Are you saying that she's his wife or something?
His wife? You can be that.
So you're saying you'll steal my son-in-law--
No, thanks!
Your son-in-law? Your husband?
We don't need him. And go tell him
to stop lurking around.
He didn't lurk around!
How dare you be so confident when they're having a dirty affair?
A dirty affair? Fine.
An affair can change the presidential election in this land.
Do you want him to stop making money with baseball?
Do you want an unemployed husband?
Hey, we don't have to talk to a woman
who apparently has dementia.
Forget it. Let's talk to that woman instead.
Come again if you can.
I have nothing to lose,
and I'll make sure I do at least one thing for Dongbaek.
CAMELLIA
-What's with her? -My gosh.
-And at a perfect timing, -She's insane.
-Jessica finally showed up. -Goodness.
Are you bleeding?
I was the first.
I was the first to spread Kang Jong-ryeol's rumor.
Hyang-mi has been busy lately.
You're right.
SOO COFFEE SHOP
I wanted to tell you something, but you just won't read your message.
What is it?
Come to think about it,
you seem to be the most desperate one in this situation.
Kang Jong-ryeol, who makes 1.2 billion a year.
Kang Jong-ryeol, the best husband.
Kang Jong-ryeol, a fool for his daughter. Kang Jong-ryeol, the commercial star.
Who's the one most desperate to keep all those titles?
-Who are you? -Are you going to divorce him?
Will you sign the papers?
Now, what's important isn't
whether Kang Jong-ryeol had an affair with Dongbaek.
It's whether you can keep your title as Mrs. Kang Jong-ryeol.
Hey, who are you to decide if she can--
Let me tell you something that will make you scared.
Do you want people to keep saying, "I'm so jealous of you,"
or do you want them to comment, "Cheer up"?
To be frank, among your 80,000 followers,
about 50,000 probably want to see you ruined.
If you want to keep living the life
as Mrs. Kang Jong-ryeol, a social media influencer,
you need to pay your fees.
You want money for her shame?
Hey, why doesn't Dongbaek associate with normal people?
ONGSAN BANK
I need 30 million won. It's a huge discount. Just 30 million.
I can't believe this crazy brat.
This secret won't be leaked
if this crazy brat stays quiet.
It's a fee that the famous Jessica has to pay for her fame.
You need to do your best to keep my mouth shut.
If you can, send me the money right now.
It's kind of urgent for me, too.
Hey.
I'm Jessica.
Someone like you can't fool me.
-Someone like me? -Yes, someone like you.
You lowly fakes.
You cheap girls who live recklessly without knowing how humiliating it is.
Hey, do you think you're that different from me?
-What? -You and I are the same.
A girl who's dying for attention, a girl who was never loved.
If you're lucky, you become Jessica.
If you aren't, you live as Hyang-mi.
That's all there is to it.
Hey! Do you seriously have a death wish?
I'm never sending you that money!
Why? Did that bitch say something else?
I'm going to kill her.
A lowly fake?
How dare that young bitch say something so true to my face?
Pil-gu.
Give me your hand.
I'm not a kid.
Can you just hold my hand?
I'm having a tough day.
You're the portable charger of our family.
Everyone in my family bothers me so much.
Hey, I just said
"our family," didn't I?
How ridiculous.
You're on your way to your math academy, right? I'll walk you there.
I'm not a kid.
Pil-gu, play more baseball instead of studying math.
Become a major leaguer and give your mom a good life.
Don't betray her like others.
HUMAN GARBAGE KIM NAK-HO
This is Dongbaek's fault.
Why did she leave the money here?
Why did she take in human garbage like me?
Doesn't Dongbaek use a curling iron?
I wanted to copy her hairstyle, too.
She must have done something to her face lately.
She said, "I'll be there at the meeting." Then she smiled cutely,
and the entire marketplace was enchanted with her.
She has been looking great lately after she started dating.
Happy?
Having fun?
She put on a tiny little skirt and swayed her hips really seductively.
Dongbaek would never do that.
You need to keep Geum-mi's hips under control.
Her uniform is too short, it's almost like underwear.
She's just unique, that's all.
Is that why she wears a tiny skirt
and leaves cigarette butts in my restroom when she's a high school girl?
Stop badmouthing Dongbaek. She's Ms. Kwak's best friend.
Mom, I want a battling top, too.
I should, but I have no money.
Jun-gi, why have you been going around alone nowadays?
Where's your friend?
Hello.
Is it all over with Pil-gu? Did you get into a fight?
They aren't over. He's coming back from the academy with him.
They still love each other dearly.
But why haven't I seen Pil-gu lately?
I have leftover pork cutlet at home.
He doesn't use this street anymore.
-What? -He goes around that way.
So we just said goodbye.
Why does he take the long way?
Because of me?
Both the mom and the son are trying to make me feel bad.
You two just said goodbye?
Hey, who's the boss around Ongsan?
Who is it?
You.
All of Ongsan is my turf.
Did you think you can hide from me?
Gosh, why is this town so tiny?
Will you avoid me forever?
You sometimes have to break through.
If you can't avoid me, you need to beat me.
You want me to beat you?
No, just have some pork cutlet.
Don't think too much and have some pork cutlet.
He's going left! He's on his way!
School bags these days are really one of a kind.
It must be fun going to school.
No, school's never fun.
I heard your mom also delivers food.
Does she make better money now?
This looks quite expensive.
My mom didn't buy me that. I got it from a guy.
My goodness.
Yong-sik didn't even seem to care when the wheels on my cart
broke down.
He's not the one who bought it for me.
Then who was it? Who bought this for you?
Hey!
What is that?
You even deliver food now?
How much money do you need? How much money will cut it?
Those are lines from a movie.
Did you get the parcel?
Is the psycho inside?
So what if she's inside?
Come inside and take your money back.
Jessica's asking me to give her money so she can study abroad.
I can give you 30 million won for my kid.
Then take that money and give it to Jessica.
CAMELLIA
Okay, fine. Thank you.
You know what? Don't take that money!
That way, you'll be able to make me feel worse.
It's gone.
The money's gone.
This darn fate of mine
is playing a joke on me again.
What are you doing with him again?
I made myself clear that I don't want you to be
vague or indecisive.
I really don't like seeing you with that jerk.
What? "That jerk"?
Then what am I supposed to do? What do you want from me?
I always find myself stuck in situations like this.
Are you crying?
Dongbaek, I didn't even say much. Why are you crying all of a sudden?
Gosh, someone stole money from me.
-What? -What? The money I gave you?
I wired you the money.
I also bought a ticket for tomorrow.
The plane leaves late at night.
OVERSEAS REMITTANCE
What?
I told you I'm fine.
I'll go there. You can't take care of a patient all by yourself.
Why do you keep telling me not to come? I have nowhere to go now.
Why do bad things keep happening to me?
Why did someone steal from me? I really don't want his money.
I guess nothing really works out for me.
This is why you should've just spent that money.
Why did you leave it in the fridge?
My gosh, what a complete jerk.
You know what? I'm the jerk. I'm just one stupid jerk.
I can't believe I made you cry.
Hearing you sigh is enough to make me feel heartbroken.
Dongbaek, I become miserable every time you cry.
What a fucking joke.
Dongbaek.
I'll do what I can
to take care of this.
Hey, it's not even your money. Why would you take care of it?
We'll take care of it on our own.
So just stay out of it.
"We"? Are you seriously pulling that shit right now?
What's wrong? She's unbelievably pretty, isn't she?
Does it drive you crazy to see how pretty she is?
Does it make you feel anxious?
Yes, that's right. I don't ever want to lose her again.
Listen to me, Mr. Kang.
I'm the reason why she looks pretty.
What?
Just think about it.
She always looked gloomy when she was with you, didn't she?
But now that she's with me,
she's pretty every single day. She's always smiling.
I'm not like you.
I'm going to make sure she stays happy until the day she dies.
My gosh, come on.
Are you okay? Let me see your hand.
-Do you seriously like him that much? -Let me see your hand.
I'm pretty sure I already sent you 100 million won.
That's how much you needed to settle down.
I'll find a job there and make money.
Since when were you so worried about Grandma?
I already hired a caregiver, and I'll visit every once in a while.
I'm caught in a pickle, so I need to leave Korea.
And
I want to be with you now.
Why do you keep pushing me away?
What?
I already know what you do for a living.
Are you going to do that here?
The Koreans here all know each other. That's why it's scarier.
On top of that,
Su-jeong and her family don't know that I have an older sister.
Were you too embarrassed to tell them?
I'm paying for your house, living expenses,
and even her hospital bills.
But your wife doesn't even know I exist?
I guess I was a real idiot.
Plus, Hyang-mi,
you can't even speak English.
You can't do anything here if you can't speak English.
What about you?
Did you forget who helped you learn English?
You shouldn't be embarrassed of me.
You may be embarrassed of my job,
but that's how you were able to study abroad.
I did all the dirty work in this shit hole
just so I could help you live a magnificent life.
I don't need an ungrateful brother like you.
Let's just cut ties with each other.
You guys can go ahead and be together if you want.
But leave my kid out of it.
What?
Listen to me.
If you want to live with him, just do it by yourself.
I won't let another guy raise my son.
So what's your point? Are you going to take him from me?
You'll end up giving him to me.
My baby.
-My goodness. -I'm glad you're here.
The heater was on at my place, so he fell asleep watching baseball.
I walked him home, and I was wondering--
My dad...
I mean, Mr. Kang's inside.
And so is Mr. Hwang.
Can you please take him?
I have something to say, but I don't want him to hear it.
Ma'am...
I didn't know his dad came by so often.
I had no idea.
Ma'am.
I mean, Ms. Kwak, you're mistaken--
Ma'am, I've never been disrespectful to your daughter.
I know your daughter is precious.
But Yong-sik is also a precious son to me.
So I can't just leave when I know that Yong-sik is inside.
Dongbaek.
Pil-gu wants to become an MLB player.
Can you help him achieve that?
Do you know how much it's going to cost to support him?
Are okay if Pil-gu ends up living a pathetic life like you?
His school friends call him 2D1M
because he has one mom and two dads.
-What? -If he lives with you,
he'll be a 2D1M whose mom runs a bar.
But if he lives with me,
he'll at least get a chance to live a better life.
You're a real jerk.
You're thinking of taking Pil-gu away from her?
You know what? I get that you like Dongbaek.
I believe that you really do.
But let's be realistic here.
Can you really raise my son?
I think I already told you that he's not your son.
What can you even do for my kid?
You obviously can't love him more than I do.
But what about the other stuff?
Can you work your ass off for a kid who isn't even yours?
-Jong-ryeol. -What about the money?
-Hey! -Do you even have money?
You crazy punk.
You idiotic fool.
You dumb punk! Why are you even listening to him?
Mom.
BAEKDU MARINATED CRAB
Why did you follow us here?
I don't like you anymore.
-I hate you. -Mom!
What? You darn punk!
It hurts me so much to see you get treated that way!
Mom, what do you know? You don't even know anything!
I know enough.
That guy who's always on TV is Pil-gu's dad.
Meanwhile, she's dating you while she lets him come by whenever.
My gosh, you're totally mistaken!
This fool knows all that, but he's just letting it slide.
Ms. Kwak.
You're making my son endure so many hardships.
How do you think that makes me feel?
My gosh.
I bought matching pajamas for them because they're newlyweds.
I guess I'll just have to wear them.
But the thing is, Grandma,
I heard you can get treated for free in Denmark.
To be honest,
I sent him money when I already knew that.
I just figured he urgently needed money.
I let myself get fooled hoping he'd live a happy life.
Let's just cut ties with each other.
You can't say I was mean. I did the right thing.
I should help him out
so he can cut ties with me.
You know what I mean, right?
You know that he's a little dumb.
Hyang-mi.
FORGET-ME-NOT
I told you to wear socks.
You don't want to catch a cold.
You'll catch a cold as well.
He was dumb and too affectionate.
So I had no choice
but to help him cut ties with me.
He should live a happy life with his family.
He deserves a decent life.
Hye-hoon deserves to live a decent life.
BAEKDU MARINATED CRAB
This is so unfair for my son.
Why does it have to be so hard to raise a child?
Do you think I stayed quiet because I was okay with everything?
I'm sorry.
I knew it'd hurt my son if I was hard on you.
That's why I couldn't mistreat you.
Ms. Kwak, I know
that you were putting up with a lot.
But I keep messing up.
You guys keep doing whatever you want.
So I'm going to do the same and live however I want as well.
I'm sick of holding my anger and pretending like I'm okay.
I had no idea about Pil-gu's dad.
Ms. Kwak, I haven't been seeing him all this time.
You'll always be involved with him because of Pil-gu.
And I could obviously tell that he still has feelings for you.
Dongbaek, this is not right.
Why are you hurting my son like this?
I'm sorry, Ms. Kwak.
Don't do anything to apologize in the first place!
I won't let my son live a difficult life
just because he loves you.
Yong-sik was born after his father died,
so he's especially very dear to me.
I had to endure all sorts of hardships
just so I could let him live a happy life.
But now, you're going to make him share your troubles?
I'm sorry, but I can't let that happen.
Don't make him feel sorry for you
with that pitiful look on your face.
And don't smile at him with that pretty face of yours.
Just leave Yong-sik alone.
Will you please stop getting involved with my son?
BAEKDU MARINATED CRAB
Dongbaek.
Are you okay?
Today was a long day.
Why? What happened? Was my mom harsh on you again?
Did she hurt your feelings?
Ms. Kwak's probably devastated right now.
So you should go inside instead of following me today.
No, we don't do late-night deliveries.
Actually, never mind. I'll deliver it for you.
Where?
Okay.
Okay, bye.
I still need to finish my job for the day.
You're making a delivery?
Mom, I think we should start selling stir-fried squid and pork belly.
It's really popular.
Where are you going with your puffy eyes?
Why are you trying to act so strong?
Just go home and get some rest.
I need to keep myself busy.
If I closed early every time I cried,
I wouldn't have been able to afford Pil-gu's academy.
My gosh, you're unbelievable.
You're tall and pretty because you didn't take after my looks.
But why are you living like me?
Let life give me its best punch. I still won't collapse.
I shouldn't have come.
I should've just killed myself
instead of seeing her live like this.
I'm practically on my way to get myself killed.
Even if Dongbaek's foolishly nice, she still won't forgive me.
But what can I do? I have nowhere else to go.
I guess having a home can be really dangerous.
STIR-FRIED SQUID AND PORK BELLY ONE SERVING
CAMELLIA
She's so annoying.
My gosh.
My gosh, that darn wench. Mi-sun is a real bitch.
Move.
Why would you make a delivery when you can't even start it?
You're going instead?
And from now on, tell them they need to order two servings or more.
This is just one serving.
Even coffee shops don't take single orders.
People who live alone also deserve to eat stir-fried squid and pork belly.
You're in no place to worry about that.
Are you crying?
Why aren't you asking me any questions? Are you seriously dumb?
My gosh, you're so pathetic.
Why are you crying? You couldn't even run away with 30 million won.
You should be beating me up right now.
Why do you keep humiliating me like this?
Both our lives are shitty.
But why are you always so...
What? Are you going to treat me like I'm younger than you now?
You're older than me, aren't you?
My gosh, I knew it. It was such an obvious lie.
You weren't loved by your parents, and the world was never nice to you.
Why are you always so generous when you've never been loved?
Why do you have such a big heart?
Did you take my bracelet?
Germanium is worthless. Plus, that bracelet is so old.
I wanted to remember you.
I didn't want to forget you. That's why I took it.
I LOVE ONLY YOU
CAMELLIA
You did a nice job of naming this place.
Your life will become better thanks to the meaning of camellia.
All flowers have good meanings.
There are some that have really unlucky meanings.
Do you know what a forget-me-not means?
A forget-me-not?
It means "Don't forget me."
Don't forget me, okay?
I got abandoned by both my mom and brother.
But I want you
to remember me.
That will at least give my life some meaning.
What's wrong, Hyang-mi? Did something happen?
What's the matter?
Have some stew and alcohol ready for me.
If it tastes good,
I'll do everything I can
to pay you back before I leave.
Why isn't she back yet?
Is she lost?
Hello, this is Camellia.
What?
Do you make deliveries?
Deliveries?
ALARM
-Are you going to come -What? Hello?
this time?
Hello?
Estimated time of death,
between 10:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.
Subtitle translation by Ja-won Lee
WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS
She obviously ran away.
I wonder if Hyang-mi went to Copenhagen.
The director of Hanbit Academy and No Gyu-tae were like brothers.
Don't dig into Hanbit Academy. It'll cause a mess in Ongsan.
If you made that delivery yourself at that hour...
She walked on eggshells her whole life. Why are you making her feel sorry?
The fact that I like her more doesn't mean I owe her anything.
You should meet someone who has a stable life
and doesn't have a kid.
I want to live a comfortable life now. Let's just end this.
