High Kick! Episode 51

Man, knock it off!

- No! - Why not?

Because I don't want to. I'm really, really bored right now.

Dude, stop bothering me!

I told you to stop!

I'm telling Mom!

Are you going to run to Mommy now?

Go ahead. I'm not scared at all.

Lee Yunho. So you think you're all grown up? You're not scared, are you?

What?

Mom, do something. He won't let me study.

You little delinquent. It's not enough that you don't study, you have to bother your brother?

Get over here. Come on, follow me.

Mom, I won't do it. I won't do it anymore.

If you're not going to study, stay out in the living room.

Stop bothering Minho!

What, I can't stay in my own room?

Well, why are you bothering your brother? Why won't you let him study in peace?

What's going on? Is he causing trouble again?

They need separate rooms or something. They're driving me crazy.

He keeps bothering Minho and won't let him study.

What? Why are you bothering him?

Why are you not letting him study? Why?

Until Minho finishes his homework, you're not allowed in your room.

Why not? I have stuff to do in there!

Just try, and see what happens!

If he bothers Minho again, beat him until he cries!

But I'm walking there.

Just come out to the intersection. The one in front of Hope Hospital.

- Hi, there. - Hi.

Get in. I'll take you.

It's okay.

Aren't you going to Hope Hospital?

I'm headed that way.

Come on, get in.

I'm on my way to Shinji's place.

I see.

Oh, how are you two friends?

What?

I know Minjung and Shinji went to junior high school together.

How did you and Shinji become friends?

You're a little older, if I'm not mistaken.

We just got to know each other somehow.

Somehow? What does somehow mean? Somehow?

Wow, that makes me curious.

You can drop me off here.

Here?

Thanks.

Hey. You're really not telling me. Is it a secret?

It's okay if I ask Shinji, right?

See you next time!

What?

I saw Mr. Lee on my way here. He wouldn't tell me. It made me curious.

What is it? Is it a secret?

It doesn't seem like you two are just friends. There's something more, isn't there?

- He's my ex-husband. - What?

He's my ex-husband, not my friend.

The reason we didn't tell you was because the first time we met,

he said he didn't want to tell you. That's the only reason why.

I would have told you if you asked earlier,

but you didn't ask.

Oh, I see. Was I the only one who didn't know?

Minjung, did you know?

What? Oh, I, well... Yes.

I was the only one who didn't know.

Sorry. I didn't mean anything by not telling you. Are you mad?

You're so laidback, I figured you would be okay with it.

Do you think I'd be mad because of that?

No, I don't think so.

You're right. I'm a little surprised... But it's nothing to worry about.

Okay, I just need to grab a jacket.

Isn't that interesting?

I never dreamed he was her ex-husband. I wonder why. Am I dense?

What do you think, Minjung?

Well... Not sure...

Hey, Lee Yunho.

Lee Yunho, Miss Seo's looking for you.

Why?

How should I know? You probably screwed up again.

You did so well! You moved up 80 places!

I moved up 80 places?

I said I believed in you, right? I'm so proud of you.

You only pretended you weren't studying, right?

I can't wait to see what you do as a junior. Yunho, you can do it!

We sent out the report cards yesterday. Make sure you show your parents.

They'll be so happy.

Well...

Oh, there's the bell. Go to class.

Okay.

Study hard! You can do it!

Miss Seo, you wanted to see me?

Yes, Minho. Come here.

I didn't even try that hard. How did I move up 80 places?

I guess I tried a little harder than before.

Hey!

I didn't do it on purpose, jerk!

What are you going to do about it? You want to fight?

Just watch where you're going.

That's a surprise. I guess he must have actually studied.

Why do you keep staring? Who do I look like now?

Does my nose look like Tom Cruise's?

No, it's your necktie. It looks good. You should wear them often.

I rarely wear neckties.

It's only because I went to a wedding.

Can't you wear one once a week? For me?

I'd rather not.

Well, if you wear a bikini once a week,

I'll put on a necktie for you.

What? I don't have the figure to wear a bikini.

I figured as much.

Wh-why do you say that? You haven't even seen me!

You just said it yourself. Why are you getting mad?

Welcome.

Hey! It's Minjung!

Let's not bother them.

Why? Mr. Lee's there, too.

Minjung!

We meet again.

Hello.

Oh, hello.

May we join you?

Come here.

Does he have to?

It's okay if we join you, right, Mr. Lee?

Sure.

Thanks.

What in the...

Oh, no. It's all over your pants...

Did I do that? I'm sorry.

What happened?

That's going to stain. My, my.

Excuse me.

This table's so small, yet you had to insist on sitting here.

I know. I feel so bad. I'm going to go check on him.

I'm sorry we crashed your date. We'll eat fast and get out of here.

Shinji, is Youngmin mad?

Why?

Because you didn't tell him about Mr. Lee.

What?

No. There was no reason to tell him anyway.

Besides, he knew I was divorced.

And Youngmin isn't petty like that.

It seems like he is...

Are you okay? I'm sorry.

I can pay for the dry cleaning...

Forget it.

So I hear you're Shinji's ex-husband.

I was a bit surprised.

Why? Is there a problem?

No, it's nothing like that.

Why did you divorce?

I just never heard Shinji talk about her ex-husband.

Why did you divorce?

Your urine stream is not very...

- What? - Is your lower body weak?

Could that be why...

I'm right, aren't I? You're not denying it.

The crazies in this world...

I'm home.

You're home early.

Here's the mail.

Where's Minho?

I don't know. Mom, I'm hungry.

We have pizza. Do you want me to heat it up for you?

Okay.

What's taking them so long?

Should I just order?

- Did you order? - No, not yet.

Today's specials are supposed to be good.

Today's specials?

Did you get it out?

You don't mind if I have some, right?

Welcome home, big brother.

Why are you late? You're always home before me.

What, now you're not talking to me?

You're lucky I don't feel like getting up.

Yunho! Lee Yunho!

Yeah?

What is it?

I reheated the pizza. It's in the kitchen.

Oh. Okay.

Oh, my!

What is it?

Oh, my goodness!

Are you surprised?

Minho! Lee Minho!

Lee Minho, what happened with your grades?

What happened? 7th place? How did this happen?

I'm sorry, Mom. It just happened.

You've never been lower than 3rd place.

What is going on here?

It just happened.

Heukseokdong, Dongjak-gu, Seoul 10th grade Homeroom 4 Lee Yunho

What's this?

I guess the report cards are here.

I don't understand what's going on here. I'm so upset.

What's wrong?

Father, Minho... Minho...

He went down to 7th place in the school!

What? 7th place?

What do you mean? Minho is 7th? That's ridiculous.

I can't believe it myself.

Is it because he started dating that Sumi girl?

It's not Sumi, it's Yumi.

Yumi or Sumi, whatever. What did he lose points in?

What happened to his English and Korean History grades?

This is really upsetting.

What's wrong? Why are you upset?

Minho's grades dropped a lot!

What?

He's ranked 7th in the school, right?

What in the world happened?

Wait, Minho isn't 2nd place? He can actually go down to 7th place?

Lee Minho! Lee Minho, get out here!

Is it because of his girlfriend? It's hard to focus when you have a girlfriend.

That's what I said. I thought he was going out too much.

How could he maintain his place when he's not studying?

Lee Minho, get out here right now!

Bye. I'll see you at home.

- Okay. - What's the rush?

Let's go for drinks. My treat.

Drinks?

I was going to pay, but Mr. Lee threw down his card so fast.

How could I compete?

How about a rain check?

Who knows when we'll see each other again?

Let's have a few drinks. How about it, Mr. Lee?

You're not too weak to have a few drinks, are you?

Do you have a place in mind?

- You want to drink? - You want to go?

I have a bottle of whiskey at a place I know. Shall we?

Goethe? It's too far to walk.

Let's take the bus. It's only two stops.

Let's take a taxi.

We can take this bus.

Your inability to keep your balance shows a weakness in your lower body.

You can tell me. That's why you divorced, isn't it?

Look here. What did you say your name was?

Me? Han Youngmin.

Look, Han Youngmin. Who do you think you are?

What? I don't think I'm anybody.

Be careful. Why are you standing like that?

Come sit down.

You're going to fall. Hold on to something.

Why don't you sit down. You don't want to fall and be humiliated.

Me? My lower body is extremely sturdy.

- What are they doing? - You're going to fall!

Excuse me, you two. What are you doing? Please sit down!

Hey, where are you going?

Lee Yunho, where are you going?

You know I was worried from the beginning.

I knew you wouldn't be able to study once you found a girlfriend.

What did you tell me? You told me not to worry.

It's not because of Yumi.

Of course it is. Why else would you do so poorly?

You need to stop seeing her so often. She's here too much.

I'm telling you, it's not because of Yumi.

Then what happened? You can't explain it, either.

Why are you doing so poorly all of a sudden?

Once is not that big a deal.

What do you mean 'once'? Do you know how important this is?

Let's forget about the other subjects. What happened in English?

Maybe there's something wrong with the way you're studying.

Class Rank: 35/54 School Rank: 240/380

What's this? Hey, he went up a lot!

Wasn't he somewhere in the 300s last time?

He ranked 240th this time!

Really? I didn't even see Yunho's.

I was too busy with Minho.

Wait, he did so well and you didn't even praise him?

How did he get into the 200s?

I bet he cheated.

No way!

How did he get up there without cheating? He doesn't even study.

Yunho! Lee Yunho!

Where did he go?

Is it this way?

Hey, what's that? There must be a performance!

What is it? Is it a mime? I wish I could see.

What is it? What is it?

Hey. What are you doing? Let me down!

Can you see?

I see it.

If you want to see it, you should.

Minjung, ask him to show you, too.

What are you doing? Give her a boost.

No, it's okay.

Do you want to see?

No, I...

Your back is too weak to...

Oh, it's okay, you don't have to...

Hey, I can see! I can see! This is fun.

Aren't you straining yourself? With your weak legs...

- You. - Me?

Do you have something to say to me?

This is the last time I'm warning you. Mess with me one more time...

I've never messed with you.

I'm just asking out of curiosity.

You're just responding so strongly.

It's not like I can ask Shinji about it.

Shinji, why did you and Mr. Lee divorce?

Is it because your ex-husband couldn't...

Oh, my goodness!

Miss Seo, it's not for any other reason

than to save my pride, so don't get the wrong idea, okay?

What? What are you talking about?

Get down.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Oh, my goodness!

You little punk!

I thought you'd be here.

What?

Why are you sitting here feeling sorry for yourself?

I wanted to congratulate you but I couldn't find you anywhere.

Your grades went up a bit. Did some studying, did you?

It doesn't make a difference. I'm still at the bottom of the heap.

Everyone got upset because Minho dropped to 7th place,

but no one said anything even though you went up 80 places.

Did that make you sad?

Sad? I should have expected it.

Whether it's 300th or 200th, I'm still at the bottom of the barrel.

Who cares...

Hey.

Hey, kiddo.

Dad...

Why are you crying?

You should be dancing with joy.

Hey, how about if I throw you a party for doing so well?

Let's go get some barbecued meat.

Dad...

Get up! I'll buy you beef short ribs.

Come on. Hurry up, let's go.

Hello?

Minho, do you want to watch a movie later? I hear The Mapo Tofu Riot is good.

Yumi, I can't go out.

Just for the time being.

I've fallen behind in my schoolwork so I need to work hard to catch up.

Are you mad?

Yumi, I want to watch movies too, but...

Yumi? Hello?

Are you studying?

Yeah.

Son! You can do it.

You just need to put in a little effort and you'll catch up in no time.

I'm not worried about you.

Where did this boy go?

That smells great. Do you want to eat here?

Let's go in! Hold on a second.

What?

I left my wallet at home.

Let's stop by home real quick.

No, I don't want to go home right now.

Man, I really wanted to buy you short ribs.

I don't need to eat short ribs, Dad.

Hold on.

Hello? Dad?

Minho, can you go in my room and bring me my wallet?

Your wallet? Where are you?

Dad, I'm doing homework right now.

Look, I just want to buy Yunho dinner because his grades went up.

Why don't you come join us?

Is it Dad? Give it to me.

Where are you?

You're with Yunho?

What are you doing? Why aren't you coming home?

Your wallet? Minho's studying.

Don't make him run errands for you.

Come get it yourself.

Then come home. What are you doing out there?

What do you mean, a party?

Can't you see the situation we're in?

Okay, okay, we're coming home.

Dad, I really don't need to eat ribs.

Hey, let's go eat something else, okay?

You're going to love this, I know it.

What is he thinking?

Making you run errands when you need to be studying. Unbelievable.

Have they lost their minds?

What now?

They should never have met.

We shouldn't have had dinner together.

I can see why you two divorced.

Weak lower body and violent, right?

Just be thankful I'm not telling you what a lowlife scumbag you are.

That was clever.

What do you think you're doing?

You idiots, your streams don't reach! Why are you standing there?

Stand right in front of it! Don't leak on the floor!

Okay, okay.

Cheers! Cheers!

Hold it.

Excuse me, ma'am? My son,

he moved up 80 places in his school ranking. Isn't that great?

Wow, 80 places at once? That is great.

Right? It is great.

Excuse me, everyone.

My son moved up 80 places in his school ranking.

So I'd like to make a toast to him.

Would you please join me?

- Congratulations. - Congratulations, kid.

I'm so proud of you.

Stop it.

I've been looking everywhere for you.

What are you doing here?

I figured you'd be around here somewhere.

Here's your wallet, Dad.

Oh, thanks. Your mom didn't say anything?

I just left.

I'm glad you came. Try this.

Do you like chicken gizzards?

- It looks good. - Okay, here you go.

Congratulations, kiddo.

What?

Congratulations. You did well this quarter.

I guess you actually studied this time.

Aren't you proud that your brother did well at school?

Of course. I thought all he knew how to do was pick fights with kids.

Watch it.

And he's so disrespectful to his older brother.

I don't know when he'll grow up, Dad.

Here, have some of this and cheer up.

It's no fun being 1st all the time.

You have to fall behind once in a while so you can have fun catching up, right?

Yeah.

You idiot. How could you fall to 7th place? You're a disgrace.

What?

You're a disgrace. The only thing you had was your brains.

What are you going to do if you don't have even that?

If you're not first next report card, I'll kill you myself.

Okay, okay, be quiet. It's been a while since the three of us were together.

Let's make a toast.

And one for you. Oh, thank you.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

That's good. Eat some.

Money between the pages?

If I put it here, no one will find it.

If I save a little more, I can buy a used scooter.

How did you find it?

Why did you throw it out!

A ski resort?

My uncle passed away...

Where are you going?

The vice principal.

I'm sorry. I'm heavy, aren't I?

Where are you going?

To get my luggage.

If he sees me, I'm through!
