High Kick! Episode 44

What happened?

What is it? What happened?

I'm screwed. I'm screwed. Mom, I'm screwed.

Why? What happened? Did the stocks go down?

Dad's going to go crazy when he finds out.

I can't believe this.

Why, what happened?

I don't know what happened, but you should have been more careful.

He said he was absolutely positive.

Changdong, that jerk.

I'm going to kill him.

Oh, Junha, what are you going to do?

I'll see you at 6:00 P.M.

What? I thought you were busy.

I don't think I have to go, so I cancelled.

Really? You didn't have to do that.

Yunho, what are you doing there?

Hey, the bell rang ages ago, and you're just coming in now?

What was that?

Junha's got me worried sick.

He's been mopey and depressed since he got fired from his last job,

and today, something must have gone wrong with the stocks.

When Sunjae finds out, he's as good as dead.

I don't understand why nothing is working out for him.

I'm worried this is how things are going to be all year.

Try going to the shaman in Hyojadong.

The shaman in Hyojadong?

Yes, that woman is supposed to work wonders.

I went with my daughter-in-law last time,

and my jaw just dropped.

What's so great about her?

What?

Oh, really?

You must be good at Star Battle.

Yeah, I guess so.

Would you please help me learn to play it?

Sure. No problem.

Aren't I a good actor?

Miss Seo, do you have some good news or something?

Good news? No, why?

You look like you're in a really good mood.

Me? I wonder why. There's nothing new going on.

This time, I'll do a baby's voice.

Mommy, I want to drink a cup of milk.

How's that? I sound just like a baby, don't I?

Okay, let's listen to the tape now.

Oh, no. I didn't bring the tape.

Do you want me to get it?

No, no. It's in my desk drawer.

Keep studying. I'll be right back.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Okay, hold on.

Miss Seo?

Yes?

I don't think tonight is good.

What?

One of my friends is visiting from America.

I'll never hear the end of it if I don't go out tonight.

Oh?

Oh, well, that's okay.

You should go.

I'm sorry.

Hey, so where do I have to go?

Where is that?

What's the exact address?

Oh, really?

I like surfing the web. It's really fun.

Why do you think it's fun?

Miss Seo, how come you're not doing the guy's voice and the girl's voice?

What? Do I have to?

No, but you just always did before.

Let's just read it this time.

I like surfing the web.

You already read that.

I like surfing the web.

Mom, I don't want to go.

You have to be there. It'll be quick, okay?

I don't want to see a shaman.

Just once, okay? Once.

I made an appointment. Let's go.

Man.

I can't believe I'm actually in a place like this.

Everyone's talking about how good she is.

If Haemi knew, she'd throw a fit.

Don't tell her. There's no need to tell her.

What can I do for you and your son?

Oh, you're good. How did you know he was my son?

You look exactly alike.

What?

Now who's fortune am I looking at?

He's my eldest son. What do you see?

Everything's going out. Everything.

You pass gas often, don't you?

Yes, yes he does. How did you know?

It's his lot in life. Everything goes out from him.

Money, strength... Everything runs away from him.

Gas is no exception.

Oh, so that's why he's always farting.

You'll never succeed.

- What? - What?

You're a lonely rock in a burning ocean.

How can a weakling like you succeed with such strong personalities around you?

- What? - What?

Your father is probably a force to be reckoned with,

and your wife, well, the sky's the limit.

Oh, my. How did you know? She's uncontrollable.

His wife and his father.

His father is old, so he needn't worry about him anymore.

The wife is the problem.

She's blocked his road to success.

Right? I just knew it.

That's ridiculous. She didn't do anything.

It's not ridiculous! When things go well for her, things get worse for you!

Remember when you got fired? That's when the hospital expanded.

You need to rein in the wife's energy.

How?

I'll give you a talisman for now, but it's better if you hold an exorcism.

Yes, we'll do everything.

Just change his luck, please.

Mom.

You be quiet.

Minyong

Oh, hello?

So you're busy this weekend?

No, it's just that I'm busy Thursday.

Call waiting "Miss Seo" Press OK to connect.

What? No, no. Go ahead. Yeah.

Then what about Junsu?

What? No, no. What did you say? Oh, really?

Call waiting "Miss Seo" Call waiting "Miss Seo"

Hey, I have to go. I have to take this call.

I'll call you back in five minutes.

What's going on?

Hello?

What is it? Is something wrong?

What? Oh, I was calling you back.

I thought something happened. You were calling every five seconds.

Oh, no. Nothing happened.

What are you doing now?

I'm just at home.

I'm on my way home. If you're not tired, would you like to get coffee?

What? Yes, yes! That sounds great!

No, no. I'm not tired at all.

Should I go out now? In 20 minutes?

Yes. Okay, then I'll be waiting outside.

Oh, no, no. It's not cold at all.

Hello.

Oh, hello.

- Where's Shinji? - I think she's taking a shower.

I see.

Where you on the phone with a guy just now?

What?

Yes, why?

Is he your boyfriend?

What? Well, he's just... Why?

Wow, if that was your boyfriend, aren't you being too easy?

You can't train a guy like that.

What?

It sounded like he was calling you on the spur of the moment.

No matter how much you want to, you can't be so eager.

It's only going to be hard on you later.

You have to reject him once in a while.

I'll let you in on one secret.

Guys are simple-minded.

If a girl acts like she's all that and rejects a guy,

we think it's because she really is all that.

If you keep catering to us, we'll think it's because you're whipped.

So don't treat him too nicely.

That's a real nice thing to teach her.

What the... You're not even dressed?

- Just hang out for a bit. - I'm mad, you know.

Sure.

She rejects me too often,

but you don't reject him enough.

I don't want to be a burden.

That's how you are when you date, am I correct?

You treat him like a king, and in the end you get dumped. Right?

H-how did you know?

I'm telling you, that's not how you deal with men.

You have to reject them one out of three times, got it?

Hello?

Where are you?

I'm at home. I'm about to leave.

Oh, thank goodness. I can't meet you for coffee.

What?

My father just called and he wants me home right away. You understand, right?

Yes, it's fine. Yes, you should get home. Okay.

She'll have a fit if she finds out.

I told you not to tell her. There's no need to tell her.

But what if all of this ends up making things go wrong for her?

It's to give you good luck. Why would it give her bad luck?

If this works and things start going well for you, I'll have nothing left to wish for.

Mother, what are you doing?

Are you home? I thought you were going to be late.

Hi, honey.

What's going on? What were you two talking about?

We're not talking about anything.

What is it? Something's going on.

Tell me. Tell me now.

It's nothing.

Tell me now.

I told you, we weren't talking about anything. Tell you what?

What do you mean nothing? Tell me now.

You're not going to tell me? You're not going to tell me?

I don't think it works at all. She hasn't changed a bit.

You just put it in there. You have to wait awhile.

Isn't Haemi visiting her family tomorrow?

Yes.

Then let's hold the exorcism tomorrow. Your father's going fishing then.

Do we really have to?

Of course, or it won't work.

That shaman is so busy, if we don't do it tomorrow, she can't for the next two weeks.

Let's set it up.

It's not often both Haemi and your father aren't at home.

Mom, I feel bad about this.

You just do as I say.

Be quiet.

Hello?

Yes, I was just there with my son earlier.

Yes, yes.

No matter how much you want to, you can't be so eager.

You have to reject him once in a while.

He's right.

All I did today was wait around and get stood up like an idiot.

That's how you are when you date, am I correct?

You treat him like a king, and in the end you get dumped. Right?

Yeah. I can't make the same mistake twice.

Look at Shinji. She's divorced, but she's doing fine dating that younger guy.

I'm a pretty good catch.

I have to be more confident. I can't be such a pushover.

I have to reject him when it calls for it!

Well, if it isn't earnest Mr. Lee.

When I ask for a report, it takes him a week to get it to me.

Do you think I can get it within a month?

It's all done. I'll get it to you in an hour.

An hour? Oh, don't strain yourself.

You've got quite a lot of time until your month is up.

You're so hard-working.

You're good. Good, good, good!

You're free today, right?

W-why?

My friend gave me tickets for tonight at 8:00 P.M.

Tickets to what?

A Lee Munsae concert.

Lee Munsae? I love Lee Munsae...

No, no, I can't. Not after yesterday.

I have to reject him today.

I'll see you at 6:00 P.M. then. Should I pick you...

Oh, wait. I can't.

Why not?

I already have plans.

If it's not that important, cancel them. The tickets will go to waste.

You should've asked me earlier. How can you ask me today for tonight?

Yes, well, I got them yesterday and I forgot.

Do you think I have nothing to do?

I have a busy schedule too. In the future, make plans ahead of time.

I can't tonight. Sorry.

I guess I have to give them away.

That was a little snobby, wasn't it? I think he's surprised.

I did a good job. He'll be careful from now on.

Oh, my goodness. Why is he slamming the door like that?

He's not mad, is he?

So you won't be home until tomorrow night?

Tomorrow afternoon at the earliest.

Catch a lot of fish.

Father, wait for me.

- Are you going somewhere? - Yes.

Where are you going?

She's going to her family's. Her sister's visiting from America.

Oh, yeah?

- Have fun. - Good-bye.

Okay. Bye.

- Have fun. - Bye.

Father, wait for me.

Junha! Junha!

Get up and get ready.

Mr. Park! Mr. Park!

Is he really mad? He didn't even say bye.

Do you think I have nothing to do?

I have a busy schedule too. In the future, make plans ahead of time.

No, he can't be mad.

He left me hanging all day yesterday.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Should I tell him I can go?

Should I say my plans got cancelled?

The subscriber you have dialed cannot be reached at this time.

He's not picking up! What do I do? What do I do?

He must be really mad!

Miss Seo, are you okay?

Oh, yes. I'm okay.

We're done cleaning.

Take care of it, will you?

If Sunjae knew about this, you'd never see the end of it.

That's why I picked today.

He's not home and neither is Haemi. Today's the perfect day.

How much is this costing?

Isn't an exorcism really expensive? Oh, my goodness.

I used every penny I had saved up.

There's nothing I want more than to see Junha do well.

- Mother. - Oh, my goodness!

- Oh, hello. - Yes, hello.

Oh, my. What's all this?

Oh, oh, oh. Are you home? I thought you were spending the night there.

My sister couldn't come tonight.

Mother, what is all this?

It's been over an hour.

He must have seen the missed call. Why isn't he calling?

Is he really mad?

What do I do?

No, don't make something out of nothing.

Don't worry. You didn't do anything wrong.

Hello?

No, wrong number.

Haemi must be mad. They're not coming out.

She hates things like this.

It looks like we're going to have to leave. There's no way Haemi will let this go.

Mother.

Fine, I set it up so we could do it when you and Sunjae were gone.

Why would you spend so much money on such nonsense?

And, you. I can't believe you.

How could you not say one word about this to me?

I told her not to do it. Honey, really.

You're right. You're right. You're right. But.

She's already on her way and I already paid her.

Can't you just let it go this time?

Mother, really.

Mother, I really would like it if you didn't go through with this.

You're better off donating to a charity. This thing...

Yes, yes, you're right. You're right, but...

Just let it go this once, okay?

All my friends came to watch it.

If I cancel, what am I going to look like in front of them?

Haemi, please. Please?

Okay.

Okay? Okay?

What else can we do? I won't tell Father.

But it's just this once.

Yes, yes. Thank you for saying okay. You can go back to your relatives...

Why? I might as well watch since I'm here.

- What? - I'm curious.

I'm curious as to how an exorcism works.

Really? I was curious, too.

Oh, she must be here.

Be gone. Be gone! Be gone!

Welcome.

Be gone.

Is that the daughter-in-law?

Oh, how did you know?

Come eat.

Hey, aren't you going to eat?

Hey. Hey!

What?

What's wrong with you now?

Did something happen?

No, nothing.

Hello?

It's the house phone. What's wrong with you?

Hello? Oh, hey.

What's up?

Wow, Yunseong's getting married? Really?

Are you all going to go?

Honorable Straw-Cutter. Your wife is here to see you.

This poor wretch's fate.

The ghosts are on her like flies on honey. She can't help but suffer.

Trouble with the in-laws ends, only to be replaced by trouble with the kids.

Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon!

Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon!

Honorable Straw-Cutter. Your wife is here to see you.

You wretched woman, your health is poor. You're dying inside.

My health is fine.

You look fine on the outside, but your insides are on fire.

- That's ridiculous. My body type is Yin. - What?

It appears you have trouble digesting.

What?

I'm an oriental medicine doctor.

Am I right? Did you have cramps recently?

Yes, I did, but...

You need acupuncture. Your skin tone is not good.

Come down to our hospital afterwards and get some acupuncture.

Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon!

Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon!

Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon! Be gone, demon!

Honorable Straw-Cutter, Honorable Straw-Cutter.

In this, the abundant year of the golden pig,

we humbly ask you to help Lee Junha find a good job,

and bless him abundantly. Please.

- Keep away all bad luck. - This isn't sharp at all.

I bet I can walk on this, too.

Her foot's bleeding! She's cut, she's cut!

Oh, no! Are you okay?

Let me see!

- I'm sorry! - What?

Are you going out?

Minjung!

What do I do? What do I do?

Oh, Mr. Lee?

- Mr. Lee! - Uncle Minyong! Where are you going?

School! Why?

- We're ordering Chinese. - I left my phone at school.

Go ahead. I'll eat when I get back!

He left his phone at school?

Oh no...

What kind of shaman can't walk on blades?

She's tricked us all. She's a con artist, isn't she?

This has never happened before. Something is wrong today.

I think she has low blood pressure. She lost consciousness for a minute.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

I gave you some acupuncture, so you should feel better soon.

Just lie down for a little bit.

Are you okay?

Yes.

I didn't recognize the general. I made a grave mistake.

What?

Leave your daughter-in-law alone.

People like us are not capable of facing such strength.

- What? - What?

She's a general. A general.

If she was born long ago, she would have founded our country.

Founded our country?

Are you saying Haemi is Prince Jumong?

Jumong? You mean, not just any general, but the founder of a nation?

What's she doing with my son? Shouldn't she be president or something?

Man, here it is.

Mr. Lee, are you...

What? What are you...

- Miss Seo, what are you doing? - Mr. Lee, are you mad at me?

I don't think you are, but I was just wondering. Call me.

Mr. Lee, I cancelled my plans. Let's go to the concert. Call me.

Mr. Lee, I'm really sorry. I'm so, so sorry. Please call me.

Mr. Lee, I was told girls have to reject guys. Don't be mad. Please?

Here.

What were you doing?

You're a little surprised, aren't you? I would be, too.

You called so much.

All the text messages were you, too, right?

What did you write?

It was nothing. Don't worry about it.

Tell me what you wrote!

It was nothing. Don't worry about it.

You know, I'd really like to know what's going on in that brain of yours.

It's completely empty.

Good night.

- Where are you going? - What?

Would you like to grab dinner? Since we're both out here.

Dinner? Yes, yes, sounds good!

Oh, you probably ate, didn't you? You said you had plans.

No, no, I cancelled my plans. I didn't eat yet.

I'm really hungry! Let's go eat, okay?

We could've gone since you cancelled. I gave the tickets to Mr. Park for nothing.

Oh, I see.

Is that all you came out in?

What? Oh, I was in a rush.

You're going to get sick.

No, I'll be fine.

- Take it. - It'll drag on the ground.

What about you? I'm okay.

You could come in here, then.

What? I...

No? Well, if you don't...

Wow, it's pretty cold.

See if I reject you again.

What?

Nothing. It's warm.

I'm home.

Typical. Sleeping in the middle of the day.

General. General.

What?

General Jumong.

General Jumong?

Follow me, soldiers!

What? You want me to carry him?

I'll give you a nickel for every yard.

A nickel for every yard?

I need to raise my rates.

This is insane.

- You moron. - What's wrong with you?

He doesn't do it because he wants to. He's not well, that's why.

I'm going to fix your sickness.

I'm going to fix it, once and for all.
