South Korea - Seoul
Move! Move!
Ah!
Are you okay?
Gwaenchanh-ayo? (Are you okay?)
Pull yourself together, Bokechin.
Fool.
How about some flowers?
I seem to forget that you are not here.
This useless me, I really am a fool.
Summer of 2017
Seoul City Suburbs
OK.
Yes, I am going to the concert hall now.
It's fine, I prepared two outfits.
Swallow-tailed coats, in gray and black.
The tickets are of course sold out, there is a huge public interest.
Tokyo - Setagaya
As expected, seems like getting the 3rd position at the Chopin Contest right before was a huge thing.
I see, I'm glad.
I count on you.
Leave it to me.
OK!
Good morning.
In the baccarat at the end, the second guest from the left.
Go check.
Thank you.
And I won!
Let me go!
Please, stop! Stop! I said I'm sorry!
Cheers!
You did well, Ryuu.
Thank you.
Don't thank each and every time, you act distant.
Ryuu... Won't you be my brother?
Aren't I becoming your underlining?
I mean about you becoming my real older brother.
It makes me happy, but it's impossible.
What happens?
My mother would be sad if I joined another family.
You mother abandoned you, right brother?
To be thinking of a woman that doesn't even think about you...
It's a waste of time.
That's not true.
Are you defying me, the leader?
Didn't you tell me to stop acting so distant?
What are you doing?!
Are you getting naked in front of everybody?
Stop that.
Ran, stop that!
Hey!
Stop!
It's a honor to meet you.
Good morning.
Excuse me.
Don't act conceited because Ran showed you some interest.
Look! Hyuga Satoru is so cool!
But an A seat is 90,000 won.
So expensive!
I will watch it on TV instead. - Will they show it on TV?
What should I do? What should I do?
It's useless, it's useless! I had a bad dream last night!
I tried to play the piano in front of the full hall,
I get so nervous that my fingers won't move at all. - Your fingers will move, Satoru.
It's fine, they will move smoothly. - I saw it from the backstage.
What thing?
Touko is in the public.
Really? - Touko is a genious, she's a pro!
That's why, I definitely don't want to fail.
If she sees me being uncool, she will dump me!
You are afraid of being dumped even though you aren't dating yet?
If I give a bad performance, I will be pathetic,
and won't be able to ask her to go out, for sure!
I get it.
Calm down, let's suppose that by any chance, just by any chance,
this concert doesn't go as we thought and you are embarrassed in front of Touko-san.
Yeah...
Ah, but I don't want to think it.
But it's not the end.
There will be concerts in Japan too. So, in the next concert,
you should show Touko-san a perfect performance that will surprise her.
It's a lowering then raising it strategy.
Touko-san is different in some senses.
So, won't something like that grasp her?
Maybe...
But what if I can play well today?
In that case, you should ride on the momentum and ask her to date you.
I see...
That's right!
Crap! You jerk!
Brother, I like you because you don't restrain yourself.
Don't say things like liking a man.
But I like you.
You're creeping me.
Come in.
Leader, Jung-Hwan was beaten.
There was a surprise attack at the Myeong-dong Sauna.
He's at the hospital now.
What you said?
Fuck! The Hanuru Gang.
The old man has gotten old,
so he felt like crushing somebody before getting substituted?
Ran...
Be careful.
It's fine.
Bravo!
Excuse me.
Congratulations, Satoru. It was wonderful.
Thank you! It was thanks to you, Rinka!
Finally. Finally!
Touko gave me the OK to go on a date!
Eh?
I invited her for a meal, and she said tomorrow night is fine!
We're returning to Japan tomorrow.
We have the plane tickets. - Cancel it, obviously.
That's... - Rinkan, you return first.
You have work after all.
Say, in what restaurant should I make the reservation?
Going to quite a high level restaurant for the first time makes me nervous.
On the other hand, going to an overly casual one...
I picked up some restaurants from a gourmet advisor,
so choose the one you want.
About the outfit for tomorrow, what do you think would be good?
At least wear some pants! - Say, say, say.
Which t-shirt, this or this? - I told you to wear some pants!
Why are you being all shy?
Why aren't you? - I wonder.
It's not embarrassing for me that you see anything, Rinka.
Maybe because we've been together since we were kids.
No matter how much fun are you having, don't forget your medicine.
Come in.
Excuse me.
Godovsky?
I tried playing after a long time, but it was useless.
My fingers won't move as I want them to.
But you felt like facing the piano again, right?
What about taking this chance to start practicing again?
You could play together with Satoru-- - Don't give instructions so easily.
It's not something so simple.
It was just a suggestion.
A revival of a setback pianist,
playing with her son would gather people, huh?
But that's not for me.
I found reactions of Satoru-kun's concert in Korea in the net... - Show me.
What it says?
There was a great reaction.
They are proclaiming a genius appeared.
Naturally. The talent of that kid
has been recognized in Europe an America.
Yes. He is returning today, right?
He said he wants to extend it one day more.
I wish he'd return soon, I'm worried about his health.
He's spreading his wings.
It will be fine. He hasn't had any fit for years.
But we don't know if he'll have on some day.
If we could exchange our hearts, I would gladly give mine to him.
I wonder why God is taking it against a good kid.
Then, I'm off. - Yes.
It's not weird, right? - It suits you, I chose it after all.
Yes.
See you.
Sorry! Sorry!
Are you okay?
Excuse me, I'm sorry!
Eh!? Wait, you are a thief!
That's my luggage! Hold on!
Office, this...
A thief! A thief! They stole my luggage!
Come on, there! Ah, they are gone!
They took my luggage like this!
Do you understand?
Ah, jeez!
Why...
Gwaenchanh-ayo? (Are you okay?)
Are you okay?
Are you Japanese?
Yes. - Please, help me!
What happens? - They took my bag and suitcase.
What should I do?
Ah, the embassy! Where is the embassy!
The embassy, huh? They may not be open at this time.
That's... But I had everything inside there, also the ticket...
Ah, right. For now, let's think while having lunch.
Lunch?
One makgeolli.
Also, buchimgae and bulgogi... - That's enough.
You've done nothing but eating since before. - Also, bibimbab.
It's fine, it's fine.
Satoru, you idiot!
Who is Satoru? Your boyfriend?
No, he's not.
He's now in the middle of a date, having forgotten completely about me.
Won't he rush here with money if you call him?
No, I don't want to interfere in his date.
We decided I would return ahead...
I see.
I will wait till he calls.
Will he?
You know, Satoru always relays on me when something happens.
The partner is an older woman, she's used to play.
Anyhow, she will treat him coldly and he will come back crying.
Poor him if I'm not there at that time.
So it's fine.
You are stupid.
Continuing to think about a man that won't think about you...
It's a waste of time.
That's wrong.
If that was the case, during these 24 years,
I would have been wasting my time constantly.
What's with that? You like him since that long ago?
Yes.
Show me that Satoru's face.
You've got one, right?
He's cute, right?
It's all blurry so don't know.
All of them are blurry! His face can't be seen at all!
It can't be helped. I'm not used to selfies.
I gave my best on my first trip abroad, though.
You can't take pics, your purse was stolen...
You're a fool, really. A real fool. Bokechin.
Bokechin? What's that?!
Anyway, why are you in Seoul? And your family?
My mother is in Japan.
Then, you'll go back to Japan someday.
I wonder.
You have to go back!
Think about your poor mother.
No matter how old a son is,
even if he becomes an old man, a mother will keep calling him cute.
I don't have a mother, so I don't really know.
You don't?
Yes, she died when I was three.
So I don't remember her.
Like her face...
You should be thankful to have a mother,
so you should show her some filial love. - What an annoying woman.
I'll go to the toilet. - Ah, you are an old man so you go often!
Shut up!
Hey, hurry up and bring that woman.
She's a tourist, right?
Tell her you know the best sightseeing spots.
That woman can be sold at a good price.
Also, shall we have fun with her before selling her?
Good one!
Ah, there you are!
You wouldn't come back from the toilet,
so I thought you'd gone somewhere.
I'm glad.
I don't have money.
So won't this be leaving a restaurant without paying?
You bastard!
Let's go.
It hurts.
Wait there, you bastard!
Wait, what is it?
Hurry up, get on.
Hold on to me. Hold on firmly.
Say, where are we? This is scary.
Shut up, we are going to my house.
Fuck! Where did he go?
Let's ambush him.
Go. Hurry up, go.
Eh?
Do you mean we'll sleep here?
Don't ask for luxuries.
They know where I live.
There is many stuff.
Are those your fellows?
It's fine, hurry up and sleep. - What? No way, no way!
You are not my type, old man.
Somebody help me! Somebody help me!
Keep quiet.
No way... There is somebody there.
Don't worry.
This isn't such a bad place.
This was my bed since I was 12 to 15.
Even now, I sleep here if something happens.
Bed?
You were homeless?
Everybody sleeping outside is homeless?
No, it's not really that, but...
Shut up and sleep.
Pull yourself together, Bokechin.
What?
Catch him!
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday, dear Ran.
Happy birthday to you.
Ran, you are my pride.
Thank you, father.
Thank you, mother. I love you.
Me too, I love you, Ran.
Ran.
Mother, everybody is looking.
Brother, come here.
No, no, I...
I told you to come.
Congrats.
Thank you for everything, brother.
Then, let's eat!
See you later.
Ran.
Ran...
Brother... Brother...
Are you okay? Brother!
Hang on, brother! Brother!
3 days later.
What happened to me?
Am I dead?
You are an idiot, brother.
Why did you cover me, risking your life?
You are loved by everybody.
By your father and your mother too.
People that are loved, have a life with value.
You have a mother, don't you, brother?
I forgot.
Father? - Yes.
I'm glad the concert was a success.
Mita
It was a big success. There were many female fans.
Satoru-kun will become more and more famous from now on.
Doesn't being Reiko-san's son play a big part?
Just by being the son of a setback genius pianist,
he is a topic the publications may rejoice about.
Aren't you happy that they are paying attention to Satoru-kun?
That's not true.
It's just that I don't want him to become too busy. Satoru's health care is my job.
Well...
This is Rinka. - Hurry up, come in.
Satoru is in trouble. - Eh?
Sorry for the intrusion. What happened to Satoru?
He locked himself inside of his room after returning from Seoul and hasn't come out.
He's not eating, and hasn't touched the piano.
For a pianist, one day of rest means 5 days to go back to the precious point.
Persuade him, do something about it, please. - Yes.
Satoru, what's wrong?
Open the door.
I brought your favorite strawberry sandwich, Satoru.
So, what happened?
Touko dumped me. - As expected.
Why "as expected"? Was me getting dumped that obvious?
That's not it.
Touko-san is that kind of person. - What do you mean with that?
She's known as a woman of many loves.
Saying it nicely, many loves...
Saying it bluntly, a wanton--
Don't talk bad about Touko! - Sorry.
Touko is free.
Just because some little idiots can't understand it...
It's a large scale.
What happened?
I carried a bouquet of roses. - Yes.
A huge one.
Awesome, are for me?
Please, date me.
It's fine.
Then, shall we date? - Really?
That was a historical performance.
There are people that get tired if Pollini is performed too perfectly,
but that articulation cannot be imitated by anybody else.
But listening to the most recent recordings, the interpretation is completely different.
The Colort version and Paderevski version become a bit slow...
Sorry, I'll go to the toilet.
Touko!
Sorry, it looked fun!
I will stay at his house today. See you!
I see.
And that means you were dumped?
I was completely dumped~!
But when you asked her to date you, she said that fine, right?
Yeah, she did. - Then you will have other chance, right?
Right! Soon you will have your birthday party.
Invite Youko-san, you have to play the piano, of course.
That will be way more effective with Touko-san than 100 roses.
A solatium from the gang. 50,000 dollars.
Did Ran give the order for this?
Was I cut out?
It can't be helped.
You won't be useful anymore with such body.
There is a bullet left here.
It miraculously passed between the brain and the skull base.
There is no damage appearing now.
However, there is the possibility of an excision surgery here.
It can be a a time bomb.
Then, what would happen?
In some months, your hands and leg will get numb,
you will be sleepy, feel nauseous, your head will hurt and then your body will paralyze...
In the end...
It will lead to your death.
How is it? Is it fun?
You want to go high?
Is it fun?
How is it?
You have to go back, think about your poor mother.
No matter how old a son is,
even if he becomes an old man,
a mother will keep calling him cute.
15th of June.
Seems I don't have much life left.
I was given money, and told to do as I want.
It hasn't hit me yet.
I don't know what should I do.
16th of June.
I decided to film a video every day from now on.
I don't have even a single commemorative picture of myself.
So this is...
The proof that I was alive.
5th of July.
I made up my mind.
I will go back to Japan.
I will return to Japan,
and look for my mother.
What should I do after returning?
Should I hand out that money?
But you know, my mother
probably regrets greatly having abandoned me.
Will say something like that she has no right to meet me, and may not accept it.
What do I do in that case?
Like this?
"Mother, because of you, I had a not so bad life."
"Thank you for giving birth to me."
"Goodbye mother."
"Be happy."
For sure my mother will shed tears of joy, right?
Then, I will pass her the videos and tell her,
"This if the proof that I lived."
"Don't forget me, please."
7th of July, this is Japan.
Careful!
7th of July.
This is Japan.
From now on, I will look for my mother.
Lost, lost little kitten~
Where do you live?~
The doggy cop, looked troubled~
Meow, meow. Meow meow~
It's a bark there, isn't? It's a dog, dogs bark.
Bow-wow... Meow-meow?
Bow-wow. Bow-wow.
Bow...
Rikkun? - Eh?
Ah! Rikkun! Rikkun, you came back!
Rikkun, you are back! - Wakana?
You were well! - Rikkun!
I didn't notice for a moment. - Rikkun.
Don't touch my mother!
Sakana, this person is Rikkun. So don't scowl at him.
Who's Rikkun?
My name is Okazaki Ritsu, who are you?
I am...
Sakana means fish.
Sakana. - Sakana?
Wakana's son is Sakana?
That's too amusing.
Ritsu-kun?
Okazaki Ritsu-kun?
Miss Principal...
Why did Wakana become like that?
You were close, right?
When she was bullied, you would always protect her.
Hey, what are you doing? - Oh no! Ritsu came!
She was three years younger, so she's over 30 now, right?
Rikkun.
Isn't she pretty much a brat?
She has a son, does it mean she's married?
Sakana-kun doesn't have a father.
No?
Maybe not even Wakana-chan knows who it is.
After you were adopted by the Okazaki's,
Wakana-chan really wanted to meet you.
And then, one day...
she chased after a boy that looked like you
and rushed out into the roadway.
She was hit by a car.
She survived, but his brain suffered some damages...
What happened to you after that?
I heard from the Okazaki's.
With destination to Korea,
you fled home.
They said you didn't return since then.
What happened after that?
Well...
I've been wandering here and there.
I can't tell in detail, though.
Then, why did you come back?
Sensei, don't you know where my mother is and what she does?
You came back to look for your mother?
Yes.
This ring and this charm.
When it was decided I would leave this place,
you gave them to me, right?
You had this with you when we found you.
This ring, and a paper that said "Ritsu".
That's why we gave you the name "Ritsu".
This ring was something your mother wore, right?
This is the only clue left.
This month's part.
Thank you very much.
After I die, every month,
the same quantity is arranged to come in.
Yes.
What's left for those dying,
is only the greed for fame.
I...
Don't want to pollute my reputation.
You will protect the secret, right?
Yes.
My son...
Is in Korea?
Yes, he's living like a worm.
Without knowing about his father or his mother.
Rikkun.
What is it?
Rikkun, do you like nikujaga?
I do like it, but haven't eaten it in a long time.
Come eat at our house.
Is it okay for him to scowl at me?
Sakana, you can't scowl at Rikkun.
Sakana.
Delicious.
So good.
You are good at cooking, Wakana.
Eat a lot. - Yeah.
You are admirable. You can cook, you can clean,
the things you can do go increasing.
There is nobody that can do as many things as you.
I am also studying kanji.
Look at this.
Hey, aren't you great?
"One thousand years",
"Thousand yen", "Thousand people", "1,000 yen bill",
Ichinichi... What's this?
That's "Ichijitsu senshu".
wait impatiently 《for somebody's arrival》
Uncle, you are worst at kanji than mum.
You can live even not knowing kanji.
Then, I won't study them either. - Then you'll become like me.
I don't want that.
Pretty. What is that?
The ring my mother gave me.
It's small, but a jewel is a jewel.
My mother...
This was a farewell gift, with the intention it would make things better with who picked me.
She probably worked hard to buy this.
Being poor...
Farewell gift?
A farewell gift, not rice cookie.
Senbetsu (farewell gift) Vs. Senbei (rice cookie)
A rice cookie. Ah! A rice cookie.
I told you it's not a rice cookie. Don't get close.
You know...
I can't eat anymore...
What's with that? Let's sleep.
Rikkun, Rikkun!
What? - Where are you going? Are you coming back soon?
Don't worry that much, I will back soon. Go back inside.
But why can't you investigate it? Isn't there anything left in it?
Like the records of who bought a ring here 35 years ago.
It is not something purchased here... - I don't know, that's why I'm asking.
Anyhow, look it up. - Anyhow,
I can't tell you information about the customers.
I'm not asking such details.
It will be the same no matter where you ask.
Why are you following me?
Are you from the Hanuru Gang? - No, no, no.
I know it.
Eh?
Where your mother is.
Who may it be? - I will go.
What happens? - Is this your house?
No, but it's close by. But why are you here?
Could it be you remembered it from my passport and came meet me?
How gross.
What are you doing? Coming in without permission--
Shut up, Bokechin.
Bokechin?
Hold on, don't come in without permission.
Let me go.
Hey, what are you doing? Hurry up and leave.
Shut up.
I will get scolded.
Who is it? - This...
Who are you?
Mother? Rinka?
Eh?
Stop!
Mother.
I'm sorry, this person is stupid.
He came chasing me from Korea, even though I told him there is somebody I like.
Don't let strangers in our house!
I'm really sorry!
Come on, hurry up and leave...
Leave quickly, I will call the police!
Hurry up and leave...
Leave!
Thank you for being born.
You are my treasure.
Thank you, mother.
Touko-san...
You came, Touko.
Thank you for inviting me.
Here. - Thank you.
It smells delicious.
It may be the roast-beef. Come in.
