(The characters, locations, and organizations in this drama...)
(are all based on fiction.)
That's right.
This is the only way.
Dad, Mom...
I'm sorry.
Yeong Soo.
I'm sorry.
Thank you for all these times.
It's time to go.
Darn it!
Ma'am.
You won't die from that.
Even if you fall from there,
you won't die.
You'll just break your pelvis...
or your spine, and become hospitalized forever.
And your family will suffer even more...
taking care of you for their whole lives.
So you should live.
Just keep living.
Stay alive until you can.
That's how you'll make your family suffer less.
What? My letter.
What if Mom saw it?
Right, knowing Mom's personality, she'd be out looking for me...
if she saw the letter.
Then was it...
Where did the letter go?
Have I become forgetful because I'm old now?
Gosh, I aged this much overnight,
but all the age-related changes are still happening.
Look at my hair.
I used to look fabulous.
Are you up?
Gosh, is it going to rain today or what?
My wrists hurt so much.
I really want to close the salon for the day...
and plunge into the hot pool at the bathhouse.
You like going to the bathhouse.
Are you listening?
Oh, dear.
I wonder if autumn will be gone in the near future.
I feel like it was summer just yesterday,
but it's already getting cold.
I'm leaving your breakfast in front of the door.
Joon Ha, Joon Ha!
Hey, you're inside, right?
Open up.
I'll give you this porridge I picked up for you and leave.
He's not home, right?
Well...
I'm not sure, but he's not answering.
The thing is, his grandmother passed away suddenly.
Yes, I'm aware.
He knows.
The young man who lives here has no family.
He might have nothing to eat, so I brought some food for him.
I went hiking in the spring and picked some mugwort.
This is that mugwort steamed with some flour.
And I made this with plums I bought...
when I went to Gwangyang. I pickled them first...
and seasoned them with gochujang.
It perks up your appetite like nothing else can.
You can easily eat a whole bowl of rice with this and water alone.
I see.
The thing is, his grandmother passed away suddenly.
- I told you earlier that I know. - He knows.
Joon Ha.
She didn't eat again?
The rice is so hot.
I prefer cold rice.
Mom, I don't want hot rice. I like digging right into cold rice.
Don't be so fussy. Let's just eat, okay?
I'm about to lose it.
Okay.
Let's break the door open.
Let's get it open and take her to the hospital or something.
We can't just leave her like that.
Do you think it's that simple?
You think she's not coming out because she can't get the door open?
You've never even tried to understand how others might feel.
Good, right there. Okay. Confirm.
Gosh, you idiot. Why did you have to go there and die?
Playing this game alone is no fun. I need someone to watch me play it.
That's it. Stop right there. Stop, stop!
Okay. Isn't this it?
I picked up some kimchi dumplings.
You like these dumplings.
You should eat them before they get cold.
And tell me if there's anything else you want to eat.
You don't have to come out, but you should eat something.
You need to eat to live.
Can she see me?
Hey! Focus, will you?
This is why I told you to take a break.
You should just go home.
Joon Ha! Come here and have some food.
Where did it go? Here it is.
3am?
I've gone to bed at 3am, but I've never woken up this early.
I heard old people get up very early in the morning.
I'm sorry. Are you closing soon?
No, not at all.
What would you like?
- A bowl of udon, please. - Sure. Have a seat.
A bottle of soju, please.
You're drinking soju again?
Have you eaten?
Here.
It's on the house.
Eat some while you drink, okay?
Gosh, your face has become so thin.
I can't stand seeing you like that.
Well, here is your udon.
Enjoy.
Thank you.
You don't live around here, do you?
No.
Oh, your son must live around here.
I understand.
Everyone has a story, I guess.
The water is boiling.
What's bothering you?
Why are you drinking so much?
Whatever it is, I doubt you're in deeper trouble than I am.
I got old overnight, for goodness' sake.
After telling me not to kill myself,
why do you look so depressed yourself?
Who are you to tell me to live?
Who gives you the right?
Who do you think you are?
What's bothering you so much?
What is it?
Gosh.
Why didn't you eat the dumplings? Why?
You'd die for those dumplings!
You even said Choi Min Sik in "Oldboy"...
wouldn't have become so furious if he had been given...
kimchi dumplings instead of the grilled ones.
You wouldn't mind being locked up if you could get kimchi dumplings.
Why aren't you eating them now?
I don't want them.
You eat only when you want food?
You can't fool your stomach.
Do you know how long it's been since you last ate?
What are you thinking?
I want to die.
In this state, it wouldn't be surprising even if I die tomorrow.
Come out.
I said, come out!
Come out!
You're lucky.
You can dye your hair for free for the rest of your life.
If you're jealous, get old.
I'll dye your hair.
I'm already old.
Because I work so hard,
you think I'm still young.
I...
always wondered...
when I saw the old ladies that come here.
"How did..."
"those ladies look when they were young?"
"And..."
"how will I look when I get old?"
So this is how I look.
Gosh, you have so much hair.
I need more dye.
Give me a second. I'll get some more.
A daughter who got old before her mother.
A mother who has to dye her old daughter's hair.
What a nightmare.
I can't let my family...
live with the old me for the rest of their lives.
The 25-year-old Kim Hye Ja...
is gone now.
Is there a bigger suitcase?
A T-shirt.
This might come in handy too.
A woven straw bag for summer.
Am I going on a trip?
My goodness.
Even after getting old, I'm still so childish.
What are you going to do now, Hye Ja?
(Seoul Express Bus Terminal)
(Tickets)
(Timetable)
(Where fun trips start)
To where?
Pardon?
To the sea.
Which sea?
(Yeosu)
Do you want to get on the next bus that's in an hour?
Yes, please.
It's 14.8 dollars.
- Do you want it or not? - I do.
Here you go.
Excuse me, ma'am.
How do we get to Sinchon?
Sinchon? It's Line Number Two.
Get on the subway...
and transfer once.
Okay. Thank you.
By the way,
you don't look so well. Are you all right?
It shows?
Yes, a lot. My goodness.
Has something unfair happened to you lately?
Yes.
We study these things.
We could see the bad energy around you even from a distance.
We wanted to help you.
How can you help me?
For those who have been through a lot...
We know some people...
who can help those who have been through a lot.
If you come with us...
I guess you haven't eaten.
No.
For someone who has been through a lot,
you have a good appetite.
Well, I'm glad for you.
Nothing has gone wrong with my life until now.
- Can we get more side dishes? - Okay.
But if I think about my family, I have second thoughts.
My grandfather passed away a few months ago.
I got swindled, and fired from work as well.
I even got sick from an unidentified disease.
- Do you remember? - Of course I do.
But after you performed ancestral rites,
you were cured immediately and things started going well.
What? Ancestral rites?
Yes. There's an old saying that our ancestors always help us.
We must respect our ancestors...
to bring fortune to ourselves and our families.
Do you mean if I do that, everything will be taken care of?
Then will I be able to go back to when I was 25?
- Sorry? - Go back?
To tell you the truth, I'm 25 years old.
I see. 25?
- Really? - I have...
a watch that can turn back time.
It's a long story, so let's skip it.
Anyway, I'm 25 years old.
But suddenly I got so old.
Will ancestral rites take care of my problem too?
When were you 25 years old?
Let's see...
About two months ago?
I suddenly turned into an old lady.
Until now, I've experienced growing old bit by bit,
but seriously, when I suddenly turned this old,
do you know how shocked I was?
We are shocked as well.
Is the place for ancestral rites far away?
Why? Do you want to go?
- Well... - Gosh, it's too far.
- It takes three days to get there. - Right.
I have a lot of time to spare.
- Ma'am. Can we have the bill? - Have some coffee. It's free.
Where did they go?
They said performing ancestral rites would take care of everything.
My bag!
Oh, gosh.
It's a small bag that's about this big.
It's made of cloth. And the color is...
Oh, it's the same color as your shirt.
And it's covered with white polka dots like this.
I see.
So it's this color, and covered with white polka dots.
- Yes. - Okay.
- If we find it, - Yes.
we'll call you at home right away.
You can go home and wait.
Where do you live?
- Where do I live? - Yes. Tell me your address.
- I don't have one. - What?
I don't have a home.
Ma'am, is it because you don't remember your address?
No. There is no house to remember.
How could I remember when I don't have a house?
I'm telling you, I don't have a house. I really mean it.
Then where did you live until now?
On the streets. I slept on the streets.
You know, like a homeless person sleeping on the streets.
Well then... Ma'am.
May I scan your fingerprint?
If we scan your fingerprint, we can find out your address right away.
- Hey. - Gosh, my stomach!
- What's wrong? - Where is the bathroom?
I told you I was fine. Why are you still standing there?
What is that?
Before my parents find me,
I have to go as far away as possible.
I don't have my bag, and I'm totally broke.
I smiled at him so nicely. Why can't he just let me in?
I have to go to the sea, but I don't have money.
I'm sorry, but I don't have money...
Right. Not a drop of oil is produced in this country.
Who would let me ride for free?
Ma'am. Where are you headed?
I don't have money.
Gosh. I don't have money either.
Where are you headed?
To the sea.
Get in. I'll give you a ride.
(Taxi Driver Registration, Kim Byeong Seop)
I turned on the car seat warmer. Do you feel warm?
Yes.
If my mother was still alive,
she'd be about your age.
What? How old was your mother?
When people asked her how old she was at the hospital,
she answered Class 7-5 at that age.
Class 7-5? Does he mean 75?
You said she passed away. When was it?
Five years ago.
Five years ago?
Then 75 plus 5 is...
Does that mean that I look like I'm 80?
Oh, gosh.
You're even humorous, just like my mother.
Does this sound like humor to you?
I just said that because you remind me of my mother.
She suffered all her life before passing away.
Goodness, she was so unfortunate.
She was on her way from the countryside to see my new house...
and she went missing that day.
I found her at a shelter six months later.
I don't know what happened,
but she was practically half-dead.
She passed away at the hospital after that.
I didn't even go to pick her up to make money...
and that's what I regret the most in my life.
Ma'am?
What? I don't want any breakfast.
Ma'am, you were deep asleep.
I feel drowsy after eating...
Why am I at the police station again?
The driver said you seemed to be lost, and brought you here.
- I'm telling you, I'm not lost. - I see.
Mister! Mister 7-5!
I'm telling you.
Ma'am please give me your hand.
It will only take a second.
Gosh, you are really stubborn as a mule.
I've made all kinds of people talk in my 30 years as a cop,
but I've never met anyone like you.
Thank you.
Goodness.
How could cops fool an innocent civilian like this?
Thank you for your cooperation.
Ma'am, it's a new world these days,
and we can search your address as soon as we have your fingerprint.
Please wait just a moment.
I'm telling you, I don't want you to search it!
What is he doing here?
Did he come to interview someone?
I heard everything from the other police precinct.
I know you're going through a lot with your recent loss.
I'd like to submit this.
(Request for Complaint)
I see.
It's difficult to receive punishment for making false accusations.
I heard it's your father.
It seems to me that instead of punishing him,
you just want to give him trouble.
Is this perhaps a matter of money?
Forget it!
Ma'am we can't search your fingerprints, so let's try it again.
I told you I really don't have a home!
Ma'am, lately there are a lot of elder ladies...
who run away from home not to be a nuisance to their families. Here.
She lives in my neighborhood.
- She does? - Yes. Jagok-2 dong.
Can you please come this way?
Ma'am.
Do you know him?
Not at all.
She is from Jagok-2 dong.
I'm telling you. I don't live in Jagok-2 dong.
You hit my head last time at the snack bar.
You asked me what's bothering me so much.
You can't open the rear door of a police car.
They have to open it for you from outside.
Ma'am, no!
Are you getting revenge on me...
for smacking you on the head?
You are, right?
How petty.
You live in this neighborhood, right?
What is this place?
This is my first time in this neighborhood.
Officer, please help me find my grandma.
My grandma's gone missing.
She's short,
and her eyes are... Oh, they look like this lady's eyes.
Her hair is all white.
Did she dye her hair?
Goodbye.
Thanks.
Gosh.
All handsome guys are so obnoxious.
Hey, you took my underwear...
You did, right?
It's breezy and comfortable in summer.
That brief brings me good luck.
As if! It's been proven to be useless.
I lost my bag, so you'll never find it.
What? I'll buy you a new one later on.
How could you try to take money from your sister as soon as she's back?
I'm so exhausted...
from running around all day.
- Get on my back. - Are you crazy?
You said you're exhausted from running around all day.
I'll carry you home.
This is why you didn't grow taller.
Are you sure Mom and Dad don't know?
Gosh, you.
Why run away if you were going to worry about them?
Did you think they'd be worry-free and sleep soundly...
if you ran away from home?
Your brain probably didn't develop properly just like your height.
That's why you wrote this childish letter. This stupid letter.
You were the one who took it?
I knew it. I couldn't find it anywhere.
- Give it back. - No way.
If you don't do as I say,
I'm going to give this letter to Mom and Dad. Understood?
What? Give it back!
Gosh, I'm hungry because I've been running around all day.
Hey, go and make a bowl of ramyeon for me.
Whatever. I'm tired because I've been out all day.
I'm going to get some sleep.
Gosh, poor me.
Hey, I won't eat it if you burst the egg yolk.
Just eat whatever I give you unless you want to see me...
bursting something else.
- Mom... - Gosh, okay. I heard you.
I'm making sure the egg yolk stays intact.
You see the yolk, right?
I'd better be delicious.
It's ready. Dig in.

It's really hot.
(Timer)
Start! I still have 13 seconds.
I'm really good at eating piping hot food.
You have to give me 1,000 stars.
I'll eat this and drink the broth.
That's how I'm going to eat this.
Start!
Gosh, it's so hot.

(Beauty Salon)
My gosh.
Mom, come sit over here.
Gosh. Oh, boy.
I'll just sit comfortably since my knees are bad now.
I'm sorry about everything, Mom and Dad.
I've never done anything nice for the two of you,
and I've aged overnight like this on top of that...
and ended up breaking your hearts.
I wanted to become a news anchor...
so that I can clear our debt,
get a brand-new car for Dad,
and build a two-story building...
so that Mom can move her salon there.
But as you can see, I've ended up like this,
so I can no longer keep my promise.
Instead,
I can do laundry, cook, and clean.
I can help with housework.
I mean, I'm still mobile at least.
Also, Mom.
Can you come with me to the hospital today?
Why? Are you feeling sick?
No.
I need to know how old I am at least.
(Medical Examination Information Desk)
We won't get caught, right?
My aunt lives in the countryside, so she can't even come here.
She's almost 80 though. Do I look that old?
Yes, you do.
Are you really my mom?
Ms. Jeon Hye Rim.
Is there no Ms. Jeon Hye Rim?
Aren't you Ms. Jeon Hye Rim?
- No. - Oh, right. That is her name.
Right, I'm Jeon Hye Rim.
Please come in.
Your aunt's name is Jeon Hye Rim?
Everyone has a pretty name but me.
I have the worst name ever. Who names their daughter "Hye Ja"?
My gosh, ma'am.
Your biological age is a lot younger than your actual age.
How old am I?
It says here that you're 78. This information is correct, right?
Am I that old...
- Yes, it's correct. - But your biological age...
is only 65 according to the results.
Congratulations.
- How... - Calm down.
I'm sorry.
I guess you were expecting it to be lower than that, right?
Anything else?
Oh, anything else? Well, let's see.
Her liver is exceptionally healthy.
It's like a young man's liver.
How old?
I'd say 55.
Are you an infant if a 55-year-old is a young man?
Are you a cell molecule or what?
Enough, calm down.
Let go.
He's saying you're young. What's the problem? What's with you?
I said, let go.
Then you'll go back in and grab him by the collar.
No, I have a question for him. I'm serious.
- Really? - Yes.
You won't grab him by the collar?
I won't.
Doctor, what about menopause?
Let's go.
Record everything accurately.
Why do you suddenly want to exercise?
I need to know what I can or can't do.
- All right. - 1, 2, 3.
Go.
Write down. I'm already short of breath.
(Shortness of breath after 5 steps)
My knees keep making a clunking noise.
(Clunking knees after 10 steps)
I'll run from here to there. Measure how many seconds I take.
Ready.
Go!
I can't run.
(Running: Can't do)

Write down. I can't do it.
(The 3-octave high notes in IU's "Good Day")
(Can't do)
Everything looks great on you.
- We'll take this one. - Sure.
Pick one. Don't worry.
You got a new job. Pick one.
You already bought me a suit.
When you wear a suit, you need a watch too. Look here.
What about this one?
Hey, I think the first one is the best.
This isn't an easy decision for me,
but I'll grant you an opportunity to change things.
The opportunity to turn back time.
Thank you.
I think that's what I wanted to hear.
Cheers.
When we were climbing up here,
I just thought the area was filthy.
But the view here is just fantastic.
All my life,
I've moved around a lot.
So I didn't know what it was like to be attached to an area.
To be attached to an area,
not even a person?
But...
I've become attached to this area.
Someone who understands me...
lives nearby.
And that's enough to comfort me.
I never felt that way before I moved here.
Cheer up, you brat. Look at this amazing view.
A bright future awaits you. Let's drink.
(Happy Beauty Salon)
You're up.
I wake up early these days.
I couldn't seem to go back to sleep.
Okay. Thank you.
Gosh, my back.
My back is killing me.
Dad, I couldn't seem to get the shampoo foam...
no matter how many times I pumped.
Turns out, it was conditioner.
My goodness. I can't believe it.
But there's one good thing.
It doesn't take long to dry my hair.
I must have less hair now that I'm old.
Let's step out for a moment.
Where are we going?
(Only 4 Districts Attract People in 30s)
(The number of people in their 30s decreased by more than 10 percent.)
This is how you're supposed to see?
- Don't they make you dizzy? - Not at all.
I can even read these small texts. Unbelievable.
Can I get another frame, though?
It'd make me look old.
- Well... - Ask him.
- Can I get another frame? - Yes, you can.
- This... - That one.
Yes, that one.
They're ready now. Let me just wipe them first.
Dad, are you sad?
What?
I don't mind wearing glasses.
Isn't it supposed to make you look intelligent?
You're right.
Am I a stranger to you?
You don't talk to me or laugh with me anymore.
I'm a stranger to myself too.
I'm surprised every morning when I look in the mirror.
I should have been nicer to you.
But I've decided to accept this.
I had to go through this to get back...
something precious to me.
I think it was worth it.
"Something precious"?
What is it?
It's a secret.
Your glasses are ready.
Okay.
You're not driving a taxi anymore, are you?
I work as a janitor now.
Why couldn't you wait until your legs recover fully?
I'm fine.
That's why I'm working.
Are you sure you're fine?
Continue to see your doctor.
Okay.
I'm so happy you got a new job.
- Stop by sometimes. - Thank you for everything.
Finish your drink before you leave.
Okay.
Hi.
It's me.
Oh, my. Did you get plastic surgery?
If I did, why would I be wearing this?
- I'm stopping by at Hye Ja's place. - Why?
She's on a trip anyway...
You want to see Yeong Soo?
Gosh. Hey.
Do you seriously believe she just went on a trip like that?
Without saying anything to us?
Something doesn't feel right.
I'm sure something happened.
(Happy Beauty Salon)
Gosh.
You don't have to do that. You must be tired.
Don't worry. I'm okay.
Try it.
It tastes good, right?
Yes, it tastes good.
It seems like I've become a better cook with age.
I've never made it before, but it still tastes so good.
Yes, this is it.
Hey, Yeong Soo!
Come and eat!
I'm your older brother.
"Hey, Yeong Soo"?
My respect for elders saved you.
- I'm very grateful. - Stop it, you brats.
Let me see.
Dad, is that you?
Dad?
It doesn't taste good? Mom liked it.
- It tastes good. - Right?
- I should have become a cook. - Come on.
You should put pork in kimchi jjigae,
not fish cakes.
It tastes perfectly fine. Don't eat it if you don't like it.
I'll eat it.
Can you get me some water?
I'll get it.
Eat slowly.
Dad, you should eat a lot for your legs to recover fast.
Also, don't forget to take your medicine after your meal.
I have a night shift today.
I forgot.
Goodness.
Go on ahead. I'm feeling a bit tired,
so I'll go to bed first.
Dad, wait.
You might get hungry at night.
Go to sleep.
Let's go, Dad!
(Happy Beauty Salon)
I'll go get some hair treatment for you.
Okay.
What are you doing here?
Is she your daughter?
What?
I mean, is Mrs. Lee your daughter?
No, she's not.
I'm her aunt.
I knew it. You two look alike.
There's a familiar feeling coming from you two.
Are you visiting?
I just dropped by.
Where do you live?
Why are you asking that for?
I live in Brazil.
Brazil?
You came from far away.
Do I have to wait long?
No, come sit down.
- Can I get a perm? - Sure.
- How much is it? - 20 dollars.
The neighborhood near here charges 15 dollars.
How about for 15 dollars?
Gosh, Ma'am.
- I can barely buy materials. - Come on.
You shouldn't do business like that in a small neighborhood like this.
Then go to that neighborhood and get it done for 15 dollars.
If you can't even buy materials,
do the other cheap beauty salons run on a deficit or something?
That doesn't make sense.
Do you think perms are done with only hair chemicals?
With big hair rods, you can curl your hair in no time.
But do you know how much your wrists hurt...
when you use small hair rods?
And everyone asks for a perm that won't loosen up.
How could a perm not loosen up?
If that was possible, every hair salon will go out of business.
Even chicken that goes into your mouth costs 20 dollars lately.
During the whole perm process,
a person has to stand and do this with her hands.
You can't say 20 dollars is expensive.
Still, this is a small neighborhood...
This is how we do business here.
If you don't like it, go there and do it for 15 dollars.
How about a squid ink jet black color?
Okay.
Gosh, you have such a loud and clear voice.
That was truly something.
I know.
You must've made a nice living with that voice of yours.
Of course. I used to be a news anchor.
I knew it. That voice of yours is no ordinary voice at all.
You're such an eloquent speaker.

I need to get some sun.
Are you leaving?
When you come tomorrow, bring some fried dumplings.
I can eat cold or left-over dumplings too.
Why are you so surprised?
Are you wearing that helmet hoping I won't recognize you?
Come on.
How could I not recognize you?
Don't forget the fried dumplings.
Darn it.
How did that loser know it was me?
Shoot.
I have a cramp.
Hye Ja, pull my foot.
It hurts so bad.
What do you think your hands are for?
What an idiot.
Hyun Joo dropped by earlier.
I think she came to see what you were doing.
She won't believe you suddenly went on a trip. It's ridiculous.
Then go explain to her so it won't sound ridiculous then.
I'll tell her.
(Happy Beauty Salon)
Are you saying Hye Ja might not have gone on a trip?
I'm saying, let's go check if it's true or not.
So you mean you want me to ask where she went?
It's not that, you moron!
I'll do the asking.
You can pretend to go to the bathroom...
and go to Hye Ja's room.
She might be confined in there or something.
Why would she be confined?
I'm just saying, anything is possible.
Hey.
You know the structure of that house well, right?
While I distract her family...
That's how...
I became like this.
Isn't it awkward?
Hye Ja...
Hye Ja, what happened to you?
I thought she did something terrible...
and shaved her head and was trapped in here.
Ma'am.
Can't you guys sit comfortably?
Can we?
What's wrong? I already explained everything.
Are you going to make me uncomfortable too?
I know, but I have no idea how to react to this.
Well, I can't even accept this either.
I can't imagine how you must feel.
Do you want to sit?
It would've been better if I got my head shaved instead.
I can just grow my hair back.
Does your hair stop growing if you're old?
That's absurd!
That's the most polite gesture I've ever seen you make.
It's strange. I can't help acting like this. Sorry.
Hey. I heard true friends shouldn't feel sorry...
to each other about anything.
We're friends.
Yes, friends.
Friends!
Well, I've never been treated like this in my life.
It's not that bad.
You should come over during the day next time.
I can barely stay awake after the sun sets.
I guess I really am old.
What are you crying for?
Why are you crying?
I'm always like this 24 hours a day.
I even wake up early in the morning.
Stop overreacting.
I never imagined it was you the elder ladies were talking about.
They already talked about me?
They said some old lady was at the beauty salon...
and she was really feisty. What did you do?
They kept asking about me...
so I lied a little bit.
Actually, it's not even a lie.
I might've become a news anchor during the times that I missed.
You lied that you used to be a news anchor?
They kept complimenting that I had a nice voice.
They also asked about my children.
What do I know about raising children?
So I just said I have a son and grandkids,
but I lied and said they live in Brazil.
And they believed you?
That's how this neighborhood is.
People believe whatever you tell them.
But I must say,
what happened to me is the most unbelievable story of them all.
Why do you keep crying? You're really annoying me today.

My mom... I mean, my boss is still in bed.
I'm not here to see her.
I went to the jeweler's shop hoping to sell this,
but the owner gave me a 10-dollar bill and told me to leave.
10 dollars?
This looks quite expensive.
Maybe he didn't take me seriously because I'm shabbily dressed.
So I was just wondering if you could come with me.
Me?
I know it's a lot to ask.
But from what I saw yesterday, I know that you're very eloquent.
Just a moment, then. I'll get ready and meet you out here.
I guess you got a job.
You look dashing. You found a job, right?
I live with the lady who owns the hair salon over there.
Happy Beauty Salon.
Yes, you remember me, right? I'm sure you do.
You must want to ask about Kim Hye Ja. You do, right?
Oh, no.
That punk.
Hey.
How could he not recognize me just because I've aged a little?
He and I share so many memories together.
Does he want to erase all the memories of this place...
now that he's moved on?
You see,
I mentioned my mom's salon to him,
and he didn't ask about me at all.
Why does it make me so sad?
We weren't close to the point that I should be drinking and crying now.
Does this mean...
I liked him a lot?
Is that it?
Darn it. This is so unfair.
I can't even date him now.
I can't say that you didn't like him.
- This is so unfair! - I can't say
Gosh.
Why does she sing every time she gets drunk? How annoying.
This is truly
Gosh! My goodness! Nice!

I saw a dog that looks exactly like Rice.
Rice ran away over a month ago. Why would he be there?
Do you have proof that it's your dog?
Do you have proof that it isn't?
I'll give you the dog if you bring something to prove that it's yours.
- Something to prove that it's mine? - Yes.
You have to give me 30 dollars for the 10 bowls of jjajangmyeon.
I haven't removed the wrap on these. Can I return them?
I worked so hard to make them.
Wait! What about me?
You'd better give me the insurance payout when I'm still nice to you.
Try to think hard.
- You've seen me many times. - You, ma'am?
Don't be surprised, okay?
I'm that... Hye Ja.
