High Kick! Episode 37

Yes, Miss Seo?

What are you doing?

Nothing much. Why?

Well, I...

My friend...

Did she give you tickets to something?

How did you know?

- And are they for tonight? - What? How did you know?

- And your date can't make it? - Oh, my. You're psychic!

Wait, are you teasing me?

I'll go with you. Even though I don't know what it is.

Really?

I was bored anyway. So this works out.

It's a play and it's playing at University Street. I heard it's good.

It's at 6:00 P.M. Okay, let's meet here.

Don't forget your milk if you don't want me to yell at you.

I really don't like milk.

Why would you say that? You've grown so much!

- Bye. - Bye.

Go get 'em!

Are you eating again? Again?

Yes.

Wait a minute. It's 4:00 P.M. now. Are you eating lunch or dinner?

I guess it's more of a light meal.

How many meals do you eat a day?

You barely move an inch all day. No wonder you gain weight.

He's not even pretending he hears me.

Honey, no more after that. Okay? That's your last bowl.

Why?

You have to get a physical tomorrow. You can't eat for 12 hours prior to it.

Oh, that's right.

Oh...

Didn't you make an appointment for that a long time ago? You didn't get it yet?

He never made it the full 12 hours. We had to keep rescheduling.

You're getting that physical tomorrow, no matter what.

No more eating, okay?

Mother, make sure he doesn't eat anything.

I'll be back later.

Okay, if it's tomorrow at 9:00 A.M., you can't eat after 9:00 P.M. tonight.

That's impossible.

Do you want me to die?

You idiot. Most people don't eat after 9:00 P.M.

You have nothing to feel bad about.

Do I have to get a physical?

I'm healthy. I don't need it.

You haven't had a physical in three years. You can't skip it at your age.

Man.

Then I'm going to stuff myself until 9:00 P.M. tonight.

Mom, give me more rice and make me three more packages of noodles.

When's the performance?

I think it starts in January.

Isn't that your brother-in-law? Who's the woman next to him?

That's Minho's homeroom teacher.

Minho's homeroom teacher...

Oh, honey. There was a rumor that the two of them were dating.

What? Really?

That's what Yumi said.

The kids at school always tease them.

Really?

If they're going out on dates like that on the weekend, it must be true.

There you are. Where's Jungmin?

She went to the bathroom.

I thought you said she wasn't any good. Why did you change your mind?

The girl who was supposed to do it hurt her leg.

Oh. Lucky her.

If she's that bad, you don't have to use her. Fire her.

You recommended her. She's doing alright.

How do you two know each other?

She's my brother-in-law's ex-wife.

So she's your sister-in-law?

They got divorced. We're nothing now.

Yeah? Then is it okay for her to date other men?

What are you talking about?

One of our staff members has been chasing her recently.

They seem to get along well.

What? Really?

It's okay if I tell you this, right?

Of course.

Fatty.

I can't believe you're eating again.

You're not supposed to eat after 9:00 P.M. What do you think you're doing?

I don't want to get a physical.

What?

It's not like anything's going to happen if I don't get it.

Why you little...

Do you think you're human? Do you?

You can't wait 12 hours to get a check-up?

If you cancel one more time, I'm taking you off the family registry.

What? You can't take me off just because I don't get a physical!

I didn't raise a child, I raised a pig! There should be no problem.

Hang that appetite of yours!

How many times has it messed up your life, and you still haven't learned?

If it wasn't for your appetite, you wouldn't be such a loser.

What's going on?

This idiot is eating again!

Junha, honestly!

Listen carefully.

If you don't get your physical this time, you're off the registry and I'm kicking you out.

Make no mistake.

What the...

Oh, come on. Control yourself. Why is it so hard for you to do that?

I'm hungry! What do you want me to do?

I'm going to die of hunger.

Yeah, Miss Seo is perfect for Minyong.

She's a hundred times better than that rude ex-wife of his.

Ex-wife? Wasn't there still a possibility that they would get back together?

No way. They're both seeing other people.

And even if there was, nothing good would come of it.

This is better. I couldn't stand Shinji anyway. This is good.

I'll make sure they never get back together.

What are you going to do?

Don't you worry. I'm Haemi Park.

Problem-solver extraordinaire. Park Haemi to the rescue.

Park Haemi to the rescue!

What's that smell?

Mom, what's that smell? Are you making stewed short ribs?

Why are you making this? I can't eat right now!

Hey, Junha.

It's for Yeonggi's mom's birthday. It's for her so don't eat it.

Man.

- Oh, whatever. - Hold it!

Read this first, and then do what you want.

What?

[Lee Junha's Life] 1. I lost my youth because of (lunch). 2. I lost a friend because of (a roll).

3. I lost my job because of (a hamburger). 4. Will I lose my family because of ( )?

What is that?

Every time you feel like eating, read this.

1. I lost my youth because of (lunch).

Mom, I'm going.

Junha, your lunch!

Good luck.

Why is my lunch so big?

I packed you something special because it's your big test day.

Special? What is it?

You're late, hurry inside!

- Okay. - Good luck on your test!

I packed you something special.

I packed you something special.

I packed you something special.

Man, what could it be?

It's either ham or marinated beef.

Is it ham? Is it marinated beef?

I'm dying of curiosity.

Is it ham or marinated beef?

How dare you cheat?

I'm not cheating! My lunch...

Get out! You're getting an 'F.'

No, really.

I just wanted to see what my mom packed for lunch.

I wasn't cheating.

Get out!

What kind of nonsense is that? Get out!

Really! I was looking at the side dishes in my lunch box.

Really!

How dare you give such a ridiculous excuse?

No, really! I wasn't cheating!

Get out, now! Get him out of here!

No! I wasn't cheating!

I really wasn't cheating! I wasn't!

I wasn't cheating! Really!

So it was marinated beef.

1. I lost my youth because of (lunch).

That's right. I did lose my youth because of lunch.

And now I'm old.

If I hadn't said 'special,' you might have passed that test.

Junha.

Just wait a little longer.

It worked!

I should put one in his room, too.

Sorry I'm late.

- Hi. - Hi.

- You're home. - I...

Junha didn't eat anything, right?

He hasn't yet, but there are still 10 hours left.

Mother, have a seat.

Why?

- I have something I'd like to discuss. - What is it?

Honey, you come here, too.

Why?

What is it?

Well...

- It's about Minyong getting remarried. - What?

Remarried? Is he seeing someone?

Yes, I think so.

- Who is it? - Who is it?

The boys' homeroom teacher. Miss Seo Minjung.

- What? - What?

Father, Mother, you've met her, right?

According to my sources, the two of them have been meeting and getting along well.

She's kind and has a steady job. She seems like a good match.

If we give it a little push, I think it would help speed things up.

No, I'm against it.

What? Why not?

I had some business with her.

She's not as nice as she seems.

What business?

Just something.

And what about Jun? It's better if he reconciles with Shinji.

What's the rush that you're trying to set him up with a new woman?

No...

Besides, I think she's too weak.

What?

She was my patient. I examined her and she's weak and has a weak uterus.

A weak uterus? That's not good.

You can fix that.

What about you two? You boys are okay with it, right?

You said your homeroom teacher is nice and kind.

But I can't see her with Uncle Minyong.

Why not?

I just can't. It won't work. I'm against it.

That's not even a reason.

You. What about you?

She is nice, but I think it'll be hard for Uncle Minyong if they get married.

Why?

She's kind of flaky. I doubt she'll be a good housewife.

And she's not good at taking care of babies.

She can't take care of babies? That's not good.

Honey? Are you against it, too?

I don't really know her, but I know she's not his style.

Why? What's wrong with her? She's cute.

He's always liked strong women.

Like Shinji.

Did Minyong say he wanted to marry her?

No, but...

Leave him be, then.

One mistake is enough. There's no need to rush.

He'll take care of things himself.

Why are you just standing there?

I'm just surprised.

I thought everyone would be pleased.

If Minyong brings her home, that's another story...

Okay. I spoke too soon.

Let me organize my thoughts a bit and we'll discuss this again.

Organize what thoughts?

Okay.

Hello?

Hi, Miss Seo. This is Minho's mom.

I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Can we meet?

Where did Haemi go?

She went out again. She's always so busy.

Are you hungry? How are you doing?

Okay, I guess.

It's already 11:00 P.M. Just go to bed and it'll be over.

You can do it.

Yeah.

Jun's awake.

[Lee Junha's Life] 1. I lost my youth because of (lunch). 2. I lost a friend because of (a roll).

2. I lost a friend because of (a roll).

Is that a roll? Give me one bite!

Man. I didn't have any lunch!

Just one bite.

- You still want it? - Yeah. One bite.

No. Jerk.

Come on, just one bite.

If you don't stop, I'm going to eat it all.

Hey, hey, hey, stop! Stop!

No! Let go!

I caught it!

Cheolmin!

2. I lost a friend because of (a roll).

Cheolmin, what are you doing these days?

Can I have a USB card reader and a memory card, please?

Hello.

Are you okay?

Yes. What did you...

Sorry to call you out so late.

I didn't want to interrupt your date.

What?

I heard you were on a date with my brother-in-law.

What? No, that's not true. Who...

No? I saw you two on your date with my own two eyes.

What? I had free tickets.

It was definitely not a date.

Oh, Mr. Lee won't be happy if he hears this.

Why not? What's wrong with it?

It really wasn't a date. Please don't spread rumors.

Why not? I think it would be great if you two were dating.

I think you two look good together.

What?

Tell me the truth.

What do you think of Minyong?

What?

One sheep, two sheep, three sheep...

Lamb chop, pork chop...

Man, I'm hungry.

No way. Nine hours to go.

What's that smell?

Do you want some, Mr. Lee?

Sure.

No, my dad has to get a physical tomorrow.

Oh.

3. I lost my job because of (a hamburger).

Number of shares: 100,000 Price of one share: $1.00

Mr. Lee, how can you eat right now?

What happened with Bongweon Electric?

I'm ordering 100,000 shares now.

Number of shares: 10,000,000 Price of one share: $1.00

Send Order

Did you put in the order?

Yes!

One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand...

Million.

T-ten million!

What is this? Ten million!

Hey, what did you do?

3. I lost my job because of (a hamburger).

Oh, my goodness!

Honey, you're up so early!

I couldn't sleep because I was hungry.

I stayed up all night.

Really? You didn't eat anything?

Good for you!

After the physical, I'll buy you a roast chicken.

Roast chicken?

Remember, it's at 9:00 A.M. Only two more hours.

Just wait a little longer, okay?

Honey, what are you doing? Honey, what's wrong?

Honey, wait, honey. What are you doing?

Mother, Father, did you sleep well?

Yes.

Would you join me in the hospital meeting room to discuss something?

What? Why?

I want to brief you on a matter.

What?

You boys are here, too? What's going on?

They don't know, either.

Mom! Everyone's here.

Is he dead or alive?

Leave him be. He's too hungry to move.

That's wonderful. Typical.

I see everyone is here.

Shall we start?

What is this for?

Dear family. It's a beautiful morning.

As the eldest daughter-in-law, I have always felt it would be a pity

to leave our dear Minyong to raise Jun all alone

and end up a lonely old man.

That is why I have examined Minyong's remarriage possibilities

from all facets: psychologically and objectively.

Please take a look at the presentation. We will hold a discussion afterwards.

Minyong's Remarriage Report

Page 1: Minyong's Current Profile

In order to take an objective look at Minyong's qualifications,

I consulted with a matchmaking firm.

Age: 28, Divorced Male Raising one-year-old child.

Height: 6'2", Individual Assets: None

Shared Assets: Apartment with ex-wife Job: High School Phys. Ed. Teacher

Results of Matchmaking Firm

Looking at these statistics, Minyong rates a 30 out of 100.

What? Why does he rate so low?

The fact that he has a child is his biggest handicap.

If we were to look at him when he was single, he would be at least a 70.

It's a shame.

Now, then. Please look at the next slide.

Page 2: Probability of Remarriage with Shinji

Even though Minyong's rating is near rock bottom,

there are people who would like to see him reconcile with Shinji,

so I have prepared this material.

What is the probability of them getting back together?

Page 2-1: Breakdown of Shinji's Thoughts

Wow, that's pretty cool.

I obtained some confidential information

and thus created a detailed chart of what is on Shinji's mind lately.

You can think of this as an accurate representation of her current state of mind.

The most important matter is this part.

Professional Success 35% Her success as a singer or composer.

Jun 25% Then, she probably thinks of Jun once in awhile.

Stress 20% Also, her unstable income leads to stress.

These three things take up 80%.

The rest are as follows:

Shopping 5%, New Man 4.5%, Fun Activities 4% Shopping, New Man, Fun Activities,

Russia 3.5% and Memories of Russia.

Then how much of Shinji's thoughts are left for Minyong?

That's right.

This right here.

Minyong 0.1% This tiny little, barely visible percentage.

Shinji only had this much room allocated to thinking about Minyong.

So what is the probability that Minyong and Shinji will remarry?

How much do you think?

Page 2-2: Shinji and Minyong's Remarriage Probability? 0%

Without a doubt, 0%

Haemi, that part about a new man in the picture with Shinji's brain...

Does that mean she's meeting a new man?

I'm afraid I can't say anything more due to privacy issues.

Page 3: Candidate #2, Miss Seo Minjung Next we have the aforementioned Miss Seo Minjung.

These papers are the results of Miss Seo's physical.

If you take a look, you can see that in contrast to Father's diagnosis,

she is extremely healthy, and there is nothing wrong with her uterus.

I also consulted with the matchmaking firm,

and Miss Seo is rated: Grade A. Her rating was over 80 points.

Page 3-1: Minyong and Minjung Comparison

26-year-old High School English Teacher

All mothers with sons consider this age and profession to be ideal.

Compared to Minyong's 30-point rating, he has nothing to lose on his part.

Oh, hello.

Hello. Are you going to the family meeting?

They're in that conference room.

Family meeting? What family meeting?

If that's the case, will Grade A Miss Seo be willing to marry a divorced dad?

Doubtful, isn't it?

Yes, why would a girl like that want to marry Minyong?

Now, Miss Seo's thoughts on this are most important.

It was hard to get, but take a look at this tape.

Mr. Lee? His looks are flawless. He looks just like Brad Pitt.

Brad Pitt?

That's impossible. Mr. Lee probably doesn't like me.

Why do you say that?

Are you saying that if Mr. Lee agreed, you would be willing to date him?

What? I...

Is there anything you want from Minyong?

No.

To be honest, it hurts every time I see him.

I hope he doesn't get hurt again and I just want to see him happy.

Everyone saw that, right?

Miss Seo has warm and tender feelings for Minyong.

That is why I happily came to the conclusion:

How can Minyong live happily ever after?

The joining of the tender-hearted Miss Seo and our less-than-perfect Minyong,

and our active support of the...

Who are you to decide that?

Oh, my. When did you get here?

Who are you to say anything?

Who's remarrying who?

What? No...

Don't meddle where you're not wanted.

What kind of nonsense is this?

What do you mean, nonsense?

Minyong, this is a fully-researched...

And what's with the spy cam? Did you get Miss Seo's permission?

Did you ask her if you could record her?

No, but it was in her best interest, so I'm sure it's okay...

Oh, my!

What, then? You have no interest at all?

No, I don't. Okay?

What a way to start the day.

I don't think he's for it.

Oh, it's not our place to do anything. The parties involved need to agree.

What did I say? They're not right for each other.

Well, that was a waste of time. And I was starting to think it could work.

Oh, I left soup boiling. It's probably evaporated by now.

Junha, what are you doing? Get up. It's time for your physical.

Yeah. Physical.

Junha! No!

Boys!

Hey, hey. What are you doing?

I'm going to eat it. I'm going to eat it.

You just lasted 12 hours! Don't do it! Do you want to be disowned?

- Dad! - I'm going to eat it.

You lost a friend, and time,

and a job because of your appetite. Are you going to lose your family, too?

4. Will I lose my family because of (a sandwich)?

Do you want to be disowned because of a sandwich?

Good, Dad. Just a little longer.

Dad, we'll go with you to the hospital.

I'm seriously going to die from hunger.

Good, you're doing well. Good boy.

The presentation was perfect.

It's okay, Park Haemi.

Don't let it get to you.

Mom, I'm done with my physical!

Really? Good job! I'm so proud of you!

Give me food! Now! Hurry!

Oh, okay, okay. I'll get you something to eat.

Hurry, hurry, hurry!

You're going to get sick.

He's just inhaling it all in.

Are you saying that if Mr. Lee agreed, you would be willing to date him?

What? I...

Is there anything you want from Minyong?

No. To be honest, it hurts every time I see him.

I hope he doesn't get hurt again and I just want to see him happy.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Yes.

What is it? Why are you looking at me?

[ Next Episode ]

25 gift certificates?

- If you get these questions right. - What?

Why would a tiger eat rice cakes? Tigers eat meat.

This is a scam. Scam, scam, scam, scam!

I think Shinji is seeing someone.

She thinks I've got nothing to offer.

I think of you as a friend. Nothing more.

Can't we figure things out as we get to know each other?

Are you crazy? What's wrong with you?

No, no, idiot! Hey!
