(- Le Petit Prince)

(Always I Am)

Kevin!

Geez, he’s sleeping here again

Kevin, we’re late

Kevin!

Kevin!

Hey, get up already!

Oh, you’re here

Hurry up and get up while I’m asking you nicely

Come on!

All right, yes! That’s it

That was very nice just now

Flash those pearly whites for me

Give me a toothy grin

Yes, that’s beautiful Oh, you have that wild charm

Come on, smile for me That’s it!

Okay!

All right, next!

What is this?

Oh, that? The product we’re advertising

Yes, so, what is it exactly?

Our product What you’re modeling for right now

Does he not know what he’s supposed to be

- advertising right now? - I'm sorry

So, what should I do with it?

Pretend to drink it?

No, just hold it

A toothy smile, did you say?

Yes, that’s it!

All right, let's go!

Oh, you look sexy Yes, that's it! Yes!

What is this?

What do you think?

Actually, don’t tell me

It’s still in progress

Your next work?

What about “Easy?”

(Kevin the "Superstar" announced to release "Easy," his new song)

No, uh…

I don’t think that’ll quite do

Why don’t you, uh…

Have some of that?

So you’re saying you want to change the song,

just before the promotion for your new music is due to start?

And this “new song” is still in progress?

Right, so my one and only client has just told me

he wants to sabotage our marketing schedule

I’m sorry about this

Hey, it’s okay

You know I can handle this

Besides, your music’s always my priority

Yup, that’s right

So what is the real problem?

It just won’t come to me

Not even a single note

Let’s just go eat

Gosh, I’m really in the mood today

I should have another one

Didn’t you leave the car back at the atelier?

I’ll just take a taxi

Here's your food, enjoy

- Thank you - Who ordered steak…

Put it here, please

- Oh, wow, that looks good - Thank you

- Okay, please enjoy - Thank you

Can we have another one of these?

Can I try one?

Go ahead

Do you know what cracks me up the most?

When you came first in an audition show,

and the agency you first signed up with

tried to put you in a five-member idol group

Please don’t bring that up again

So this is how it is in the end, is it?

You tried so hard not to be swallowed up by the system

and made it to where you are today

And just when you think you can finally do your music…

you realize you’ve become part of the system, too

What do you mean, exactly?

- Here's your beer - Oh, thank you

Please enjoy

From how I see it, you’re scared of public opinion

'What if I’m not as successful as last year?'

'Can I at least break even?'

But maybe that’s what doing music is really like,

being mired in an endless cycle of these dilemmas

I’m talking about that fateful relationship

between capital and artists…

Hey, don’t be so quick to judge

Either way, it’s true that you no longer find music fun, right?

Sorry, give me a second

Hi, my daughter!

How’s my dear Sol?

Did you have a good time with Granny?

Mommy’s having dinner with Uncle Kevin right now

- Nom, nom! "Hello!" - Hi, Sol! It's me, Uncle Kevin

Aw, look at your outfit! Isn’t that cute?

Are you off somewhere with Granny?

I told Seung-il to go home

Did you?

Okay Good job

But, uh… he has my phone and my wallet

Right

So you take that there

I asked Seung-il to bring it over

I know what you mean, but…

Ah, there’s a taxi

Taxi!

To Nonhyeon-dong, right?

Oh, it’s you

But this is all a fantasy, right?

It’s music that’s your reality

Like in ‘The Matrix ’

Hey, so you’re really leaving?

Yeah Sorry

What's going on? Is there an accident?

Uh… are you all right?

Oh! Uh, yes

(Two years ago)

You’re not hurt anywhere?

No, I’m fine We’re both fine

So what happened to your car?

We ran my car into a ditch, and now we’re stuck

(Marigold)

What? I didn’t think you’d pick up right away

I was just doing something What is it?

I was having this flower tea that you gave me, when I thought of you

Hey, but I gave you that ages ago!

So where’s my brother-in-law?

I don't know

Hey, give him some attention!

Where are you?

Home, of course

What about work?

I’m on vacation

What vacation? It’s not even the vacation season

I used all my leave to take some time off

For how long?

Six days

Is something going on?

No, just…

Right, you’re stuck in a rut I understand

So what do you plan to do?

I’m thinking of going to see Hwa-jung

Who?

Hwa-jung You know her

She used to intern at your office, remember?

Oh, that pretty little thing?

The one you’d chase after all the time, calling her your role model?

Yes, her!

So, where is she working now in the States?

Last time I heard, she got a job there, right?

She quit

What?

So what’s she doing now?

She’s a farmer now

What?

She just up and quit, and moved back to her hometown in the countryside

Unbelievable, right?

I always thought she’s a peculiar one

So, how long do you plan to stay there?

About two nights and three days?

Are you sure nothing’s going on?

Hey, I said no!

Be careful on the road

Sure, I will

- You hang up first - Okay

Bye!

You broke away from the route Now searching the route again

My navigator’s gone nuts

Have you passed the signboard for Sejong Country Club yet?

Yes, ages ago!

You broke away from the route Now searching the route again

Then you’re heading in the right direction

- Where am I… - Huh? What the…

Oh, I see you now!

Hwa-jung!

- Hwa-jung! - Oh, you came a long way Welcome

Il-woong…

- will do it! - Will do it!

Everyone used to say that too, in our year

- Right - Yeah

Il-woong took classes with us, remember?

It all started in my freshman year

The professor had just given us a group assignment,

and you know those tedious tasks,

like managing the group chat and the files

Anyway, our professor asked us, ‘Who wants to do it?’

I raised my hand and answered in my most serious voice

- “Il-woong will do it!” - “Il-woong will do it!”

Oh, wow, so you were the one who started it

Ah, this is nice

What is it? Is there something on the floor?

Huh? No

- Oh… - Oh, what are those?

They’re marigolds

I grew them myself

Oh, wow These too, then?

They’re store-bought

For a second, I thought Ms Back-to-the-wild

grew everything to sustain herself

Did you?

Try it Careful, it’s hot

Just kidding, it’s good I mean it

- Really? - Yes

- Really? - Yes

Liar The truth is, it’s too bitter for me, too

Right? It’s damn bitter

It's bitter Ugh…

Ugh… This looks delicious

- Hwa-jung… - Huh?

Isn’t it scary, living all alone here?

Well… I think it’s gotten a lot better now,

because I’ve become so used to it

Apart from the water deer howling at night

Water deer?

Yeah Have you ever heard their howlings?

No What do they sound like?

Well, uh…

They howl like this

No way!

Yes way

I swear that’s what they sound like

Come on, what animal makes that kind of noise?

Water deer, I’m telling you

- Ha, seriously… - It's true I'm serious

Ha! Nice try

So you won’t believe me

What animal would make such a noise?

I’m telling you, that’s the sound they make!

But hey… I didn't make that face!

Are you sure you’ll be okay?

I should earn my keep, shouldn’t I?

You might find yourself unable to get out of bed the next day

Hey, it’s not like I’ve anything better

to do all alone here

Oh, man…

Oh, wow…

The morning dew softens them, so they’re easier to pick

Why won’t mine come off so neatly?

There’s a trick to this Now watch

First, you hold the base with one hand

Next, wrap your other hand around the entire flower,

then twist and pull

Ah! Like this?

- Yes, that’s it - Oh, I did a great job

I'm good at it

- Well done - I'm good at it now

Please, do keep going

The air’s so nice and fresh here, at least

- Did we put everything in it? - Wow

- Like this - Okay, thank you

Scoop them with this, and…

Ha!

We have to make sure that the color comes out

Press down on them hard

This looks like a turd

Leave them out in the sun and fresh air for two to three days,

and they’ll turn red as they oxidize

Ah, I see That's amazing

You need help?

No, I’m almost done

You want some cherry tomatoes?

Sure, anything but the flower tea

Huh? What was that?

Just not the flower tea

I’ve missed you

Whenever I see you do what you like, and with pride too, I…

You can’t see me, can you?

- I can totally see you - No, you can't

I can see you perfectly fine, thanks

- That's weird - I can totally see you

Ah, this one's pretty

Fail!

But how come? I didn’t even budge

No, you flinched at the very end

Now watch how I do it

What are you doing? Fail!

Oh, that's good Good

No Lower your bottoms a little more

- Did you take it? - No, I couldn't Sorry

Is it going well?

Stop! Ready, and shoot!

Give it to me All right

This is the final result

- Shall we try it? - Yeah

It's like blood

Put it in slowly Slowly

Okay, good job

Press it hard, so the dye can be absorbed well

- Oh! - Well? Do you like it?

- It's pretty - Right?

I think the color turned out really well

What do you think?

Oh, uh… beautiful

I think they turned out nicely

Oh!

Aw, Jin-dol! Jin-soon!

Come here, come here

You little darlings

What are you doing there? Come here

Oh, you're so adorable

Why you little troublemakers!

You ran away again, did you?

They’re my neighbor’s dogs, you see

Oh, I see

How about we take them back to their owner

and go grocery shopping afterward?

We sweat ourselves today,

so we’ll have to eat a hearty meal, won’t we?

Or what do you want?

Oh, you're so cute

Well, let’s go home now

You’re tired, are you?

I’m all right

- Seo-yoon - I’m not crying

I’m allergic to dogs

What, really?

Oh, no, are you okay?

Should I take the wheel?

- No, it's okay - It's okay?

What the…

Seo-yoon .

You’re really crying, aren’t you? Aren’t you?

I’m not… crying

- Is there something going on? - No

Are you all right?

Oh! Uh, yes

You’re not hurt anywhere?

No, we’re fine

So what happened to your car?

We ran my car into a ditch, and now we’re stuck

Hwa-jung!

I really hate seeing you live your life like this!

- Seo-yoon - Ah, the dog fur!

Sorry

Getting up so early in the morning, just to make flower dye…

I really hate seeing you live like this

The truth is… I’d come down here to seek comfort

Because I’m just so lost

I hate my work,

and now I’m regretting why I’d studied to death

in the first place I mean, for what?

Stop crying, and just relax

I mean, I’ve never thought about marriage!

Marriage?

Sure, you can always get married later

Calm down, Seo-yoon

- Help us, please - Hey

You’re hyperventilating You should stop talking now

Please stop talking

Have a seat

Calm yourself down

Seo-yoon, relax!

Take a deep breath in, slowly Now take a deep breath out

Breathe in, and out

I'll put this on your mouth

Slower Breathe in, and breathe out

More slowly

- Breathe in, and breathe out - Breathe in, and breathe out

More slowly

Breathe in, and breathe out

A little more!

A little more! A little more!

Turn the wheel to the right a bit more

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm okay

- Thank you - You're welcome

I think your wheels and the shock absorber are fine

But just in case, you should get it checked out

It’s my allergy

What?

Oh, I see

But you’re okay now, right?

Yes

By the way, are you…

Oh God, I’m so embarrassed

(Woosung Master Craftsman's Car Repair Shop)

I wasn’t all that well when I was in the States

The doctors ran all the tests they could think of,

and concluded I was just fine physically

That had to mean it was the stress

So I started to see a counselor

I also took up meditation,

and about a month into my class, the guru asked me

"What’s most important to you, at this moment, right now?"

And as soon as I heard those words,

something surfaced from deep inside me almost immediately

Very naturally too,

which took me by surprise

You see, it wasn’t my family, money, or my work

What was it?

A cup of coffee

Coffee?

The cup of coffee I made for myself one early morning

I’d gotten out of bed, put the kettle on,

and ground the beans myself

But I couldn’t understand why that had surfaced

in my mind, at that moment

But the guru said to me,

the act of brewing coffee all alone in the early morning

was probably a moment where

I could fully focus on myself only without interruptions

And that the therapy I was receiving was all a process of

becoming mindful of these precious moments in our daily lives

That’s when I thought to myself,

how nice it would be to live even just a minute,

an hour, or a day just like that

And that’s what the flower dyes mean to you?

Yeah,

I’m really brewing that coffee like mad

So right now, I’m taking the time to peer into my mind, day by day

I’ve no idea where this will take me, and who knows?

I may end up regretting quitting work like hell

I think I understand what you mean now

Why don’t you come in for some coffee?

Shall we?

I’m too embarrassed

All right, I’ll bring you one, too

Hwa-jung,

I’m pregnant

(Time Capsule)

(Three years ago)

Why haven’t you submitted your business proposal yet?

I’ll have something for you by next week

Have some sense of responsibility

The fate of your team rests on your shoulders, you know

Exactly

I never thought I’d be sitting in this seat, but…

now I keep thinking about whether this is my final chance,

ever since Manager Kim passed away

What? So what?

Have a good weekend

Geez, that frustrating punk

It’s right in front of him, so why won’t he seize the chance?

To be honest with you, there’s not much for me

to do for someone with a career like yours

I’ll only need to make a few calls

before I have offers lined up for you

Does that mean I won’t have to pay you a commission, then?

Here

Well, great

- Ah, it's good - It's good

So state your conditions Be honest

Are you after money or career-building?

Both, of course

What made you consider looking for a new job in the first place?

So the interview’s already begun, has it?

Well, it is my job to link you up with the best workplace, ma’am

You’re as cheesy as ever

To be frank with you, the place I’m at is treating me fairly well

I feel like I’ve grown with the company over the years, too

But… you know

At my career level, it’s all about management and administration work,

and dealing with the whims of the higher-ups

You might even laugh when you hear me say this,

but I no longer feel that sense of achievement

So it’s work over money

Don’t jump to conclusions just yet

Look, you really have just two options

First, a highly “prospective” company,

which is really run by

a bunch of self-obnoxious morons screaming innovation

and change at every chance they can get

It’s a place that requires an adventurous

and challenging spirit, in other words

The fixed salary will be less than what you receive now,

and the incentives are pretty much the same, I’d say

Then you have the “other” companies

They can offer a more handsome salary and incentives,

but you’ll be stuck doing pretty much what you’re doing right now

Sure, it’ll be a stable job,

but you won’t find joy in it

Aren’t they both on the extremes?

In other words, you can’t have your cake and eat it, too

You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?

Because this is concerning you

To be honest with you, I’m curious to know

just what your choice will be

- Is that you, Ji-ah? - Hello

Gosh, you look so gorgeous

Did you come alone?

Yes, I’m all on my own

Well, thank you for coming Let’s go in

Was it a long journey, coming here?

No, it was doable

Let's go inside

Hello

Now who is this?

She’s a student at the school I did my teacher training

Hello

Oh, my! So you’re her student

Here, give me your hand

I’m sorry?

So I can stamp your wrist

Then you’ll have access to

all the other current exhibitions in this building

Here, take a pamphlet

How much is the ticket?

It’s on me

It’s the least I can do for Ye-ji’s student

Hey, no need to put it that way

Here

Thank you

Hope you enjoy it

I’ll catch you later, then

Let's go

Here we’ve gathered works by street artists under one theme

We have graffiti and interactive artworks, too

You planned all this?

With my friend over there

Then we received a lot of help from those around us, of course

That’s so awesome

Thanks

Then what shall we check out first?

What’s your favorite work?

Me? Um… that one

But keep that a secret from the artists, okay?

- They won’t be too happy - Okay

- Well, let’s go - Sure

What do you think?

I'm not sure

That was what I thought at first, too

Excuse me

Ye-ji, do you have a moment?

Mr Oh is here

Go ahead I’ll take a look around on my own

Sorry about that I’ll be back real quick

Okay

I'll join you soon

Look at you You’re going with your club, are you?

No, it’ll be just me today

By the way, I made you coffee

How about I just be a stay-at-home mom?

I’m welcome to that idea, anytime

I like how you’re so simple-minded

Will you be going far?

No, just somewhere nearby

I wanted to get some fresh air

How about I join you?

I’d love to have you

But if you’re going to bring your laptop, don’t bother

On one condition We eat out

Then what’s the fun in camping?

I’m not going if this is going to get big

Should we take Ji-ah, too?

You think she’ll come?

Where are you going?

Camping

Why don’t you come too, sweetie? Mom says she’s going

Will it be a day trip?

We’ll see If we really get into it, we’ll turn it into a full-on trip

But that’s the fun in camping, right?

Being spontaneous

We’ll still buy our meals, right?

Oh, you two know nothing about camping…

Fine, all right Deal?

Deal

What happened?

Woo-hoo! I can’t believe this is finally happening

Hold on, then I should pack some more things

Don’t get worked up, all right?

Sweetie,

why don’t you connect that to a Bluetooth speaker?

Let’s listen to it together

Can we go in peace, please?

The air’s so nice and crisp

Close the windows

The air conditioner

If you’re going to be like this, why didn’t you just stay at home?

I said, let’s go in peace and quiet

Oh, geez

The windows Dad, the windows!

Mom said not to open them

Do you really want a piece of me?

- Dad! - Oh, my hair…

The air’s so fresh indeed

I’m sure it’s somewhere around here

Look it up!

It won’t be on the navigator

It’s a place that only I know of, you see

Don't you remember its name, either?

We're almost there It's around here somewhere

Found it

(Hwasun Restaurant)

Welcome

Gran! You were alive!

Who the hell are you boy,

and why are you making such a ruckus the moment you see me?

Gran, don’t you remember me?

Who are you?

You know, I used to go to Sambuk Elementary…

My goodness!

Are you Eung-bok’s grandson?

No, uh…

Then are you the son of that soldier?

No

Then who are you?

I was one of the Three Musketeers at Sambuk Elementary

Oh, you’ve two brothers?

No, that’s not it…

remember the three boys who always used to go around together?

Geez, how old do you think I am, boy?

You think I remember every puny kid who comes along?

But you used to dote on us so, Gran

Oh, shut up

Just come in and have something to eat

So she doesn’t remember

Are you sure you’re a regular here?

Yes, this place is really good

Have a seat, let’s order something

Gran, let me carry it for you

Oh, it's hot, okay?

- Be careful - Okay

Here, see if it still tastes the same

Okay

This smells like your fart, Dad

That’s not how you have it!

Mix it into the rice, and throw some seasoned greens in there, too

Then add a drizzle of that sesame seed oil that’s right next to you

Right, this should be mixed

Right Put this in it, too

Ah! It’s just as how I remember it

It’s really good, try it

Granny, this is really good

Well, I’m glad to hear it

Try some, it’s really good

It’s good

Obviously it’s not for kids

You want me to cook you some ramyun instead?

Oh no, it’s fine

You know, she’s right

It doesn’t make sense that you’d come here

for this stew when you were still in elementary school

Liar

That’s not it!

When I was little, she used to run a teokbokki place

Right, Gran?

My goodness, how did you know that!

Back when my husband used to run a hardware store,

I’d sell teokbokki right next to it

Right? The three of us were big fans of your teokbokki

Now do you remember us?

Well, now I do! I remember you all right, you little punk

Anyway, this is really delicious

Do you make the soybean paste yourself?

Everyone around here does

But it’s all about that sprinkle of MSG

It’s a must, you know!

Otherwise it won’t taste the same

Oh, I see

Right It’s the taste of home

So it’s closed down now

Is this like a trip down your memory lane?

No, this is a treasure hunt

What?

I remembered all of a sudden at Gran’s restaurant, that…

the three of us had buried a time capsule under that statue

And you want to retrieve it now?

Yeah, I’m sure it’s still there

I can feel it

But there are two statues

Right,

that’s strange

I remember there being just one

Anyway, let’s dig under both and see

There’s no way it’s still there

I mean, it’s been years since then

Whoever finds it first gets a hundred dollars!

No, thanks

- Two hundred, then Deal? - Deal

I’ll go with that one

But it’s so obvious

I’ll go with that one

Then I pick the same

Do we use our bare hands to dig?

Over there!

(Lee Seung-bok, the Anti-Communist Boy)

That’s enough now It’s just not here anymore

Damn,

but I’m sure we buried it under the statue…

I can’t believe the things we’re up to,

when we’re supposed to be on a trip!

Let’s go

All right

Where are you going now?

Mom, over there!

What?

A statue

That's cheating!

- Dad! - That's cheating!

I found it!

This is what I was talking about!

That’ll be two hundred dollars

What?

You gave us the wrong info to start with

Dad, this is practically fraud

Hey, I just found what I’d buried 40 years ago, and…

Sure, whatever But first, pay up

Are you serious?

Oh, all right Here, take your money

Aren’t you curious about what’s inside?

Probably some old ttakji pieces that you used to play with, I bet

Anyway, they say today’s market day, so let’s go check it out

Yes!

Now, let's go

Geez, you two are so…

Anyway, wow So it was true

Right

Let’s let Dad be, so he can reminisce

All right, you two

Just stay seated

Wow, we could make this our second home

Just have a seat

Actually, no Since you came all this way, why not get into it, too?

Here, this is really simple…

Where are you going?

Out for a walk

Don’t go too far

Gosh, I really want some coffee We should’ve gotten one on our way

Espresso or latte?

Your wish is my command, Madame

What? You said you’re always busy,

but you were really off camping all the time, were you?

The body never forgets

Here you are, my lady

Ah, it's the best

- Doesn't the coffee taste good? - It does

Get some rest

But I should get this over and done with before the sun sets

You need help?

Hey, forget it

You’ll only get in the way

So any updates with your HR appointment?

Well…

If I was the head of HR, I wouldn’t put you in that seat

Why not?

Because you’re hopeless when it comes to office politics

And you hate meaningless competition

I might just be good at it, who knows?

People like you with a strong sense of responsibility

ought to be out on the field, doing hands-on work

If I were your head of HR,

I’d just keep you there and work you like hell

Hold on, what’s this deja vu? That sounds like our relationship

So now you know That’s why I married you, you know

Do you have a cigarette?

I don’t smoke

Well, neither do I

Man, this is a nice spot

I thought about trying it, if you did have any on you

Do you mind if I sit down here?

You're good at drawing

I know who you are, Mister

You’re a singer, aren’t you?

“Mister?”

Do you mind if I touch your guitar?

Go ahead

Oh, wow, that sounds so nice

So you don’t know how to play the guitar

And you’re no good at drawing, are you?

No, not at all

I thought so

Do I look like a bad drawer?

You know that feeling?

What?

When you’re in a familiar place

and all of a sudden, it feels like something foreign has intruded

Well…

could you clarify?

I was on my way home from the academy

I didn’t realize it at first,

because I’d taken the same path as always, but…

all of a sudden, I saw this alley

And I was seized with this urge to go down there,

so I turned the corner,

only to be confronted with an unfamiliar sight

It was the same alley that I’d always passed by,

but at that moment, everything felt so different

The sunlight, that tranquil serenity,

and the air surrounding it… just everything

And how did you feel?

I’m not so sure, actually

I felt something rise up from deep inside me,

that was similar to excitement or thrill

But it’s not something you can explain with words

Anyway, I thought I’d like to

try going back there again with someone one day

And will he or she feel the same as I did,

looking down at that alley?

So you took out your phone and took a picture,

but it didn’t quite capture that feeling

You’re right, no!

And what’s more, when I went back there again…

I didn’t really feel anything again

Is that why you draw?

To convey those feelings?

But you’re just like me, aren’t you?

How so?

What, isn’t that why you do music?

I hope that’s why I do music

Can I draw you?

Who, me?

I want to draw you, all of a sudden

What do you think? Not bad, huh?

Ah, it’s cozier than I thought

But the floor’s a bit hard

I’m going to lay out the mattress later

Oh, no! Oh…

Are you okay?

But you said the body remembers

Well, this is my first time in this tent…

Oh, forget it!

Just set the roof up now, with that over there

But people will talk

Who, exactly?

The other campers

Whatever, I’m starving

- So hurry up and light the fire - Let me finish this first

- Ugh, man… - Wait

Squeeze and mix everything…

Done! Wow, that looks delicious

- Looks delicious - Looks delicious

It looks like if one of us has to stay home, it should be you

Should I just be a stay-at-home dad?

Yup, but only after our daughter receives her first pay from work

So where are we going to sleep?

I’m going to set the tent up again

Forget it Let’s just eat and go back home

Or we could always camp out in the car

You know, push the seats forward and lay out the mattress…

Still, we should at least make a bonfire before we go home

That’s okay This is still good enough

The stew is delicious, huh?

Yeah

That’s because it has MSG in it

You're just so… ugh

"The MSG is a must!"

Can you tell who he mimicked? That granny, yes

Looks delicious

That’s going to burn!

It’s better if it’s slightly charred, you know

That's nonsense Give me that

So have you tried opening that time capsule?

It’s completely rusted and won’t budge

I’m going to get rid of all the rust and clean it,

and hold a proper opening ceremony

Give it to me

- Oh, they're being toasted - It won't open

It’s open!

How come you’re so unlady-like, huh?

What’s inside?

Marbles, ttakji, and…

Are these the “Three Musketeers” you were talking about earlier?

There’s a photo?

Gosh, they look like little mischiefs!

Oh!

Ah, this must be you! I can tell right away

This kid right here

What else?

Plans to conquer the universe

What?

‘Plans to Conquer the Universe, ’ by the Three Musketeers

“Plans to conquer the universe Number one,

Kim Sang-gi is to study physics at the Seoul National University,

where he will develop the most powerful weapon in the cosmos!"

Wow

"Choi Bo-eun is going to join the air force,

where he will train to be the best pilot in the entire universe

As for Kang Yong-gi, he will marry the richest woman on Planet Earth ”

What?

Looks like Dad was in charge of securing the funds

I’m starting to wonder what you were like as a kid

Anyway, what do we do?

Dad’s already failed his first mission

Actually, Sang-gi’s the only one who did succeed in our first mission

See, he really did go on to major in physics

at Seoul National University

Oh, wow…

Don’t tell me he’s still dreaming of

conquering the universe one day, is he?

Sang-gi is Manager Kim

I didn’t know either, even though we were at the same company

See, I only went to Sambuk Elementary for about a year,

when I stayed with my Auntie for a bit due to family drama

These guys were friends I’d made back then

And… I only learned Manager Kim was Sang-gi,

when I saw the file regarding my HR transfer

How I missed the Three Musketeers

But…

And that’s why you came down here again?

I only remembered the time capsule after coming down here, though

And I’d completely forgotten about what’s inside

Had I come here alone, well…

I’m really glad I came down here with my family today

I really do mean it

Now I can finally get something off my chest

There’s even a theme song in here

To your plans to conquer the universe

Those blue lights

will be the symbol of justice…

Come at us, from all corners of the Universe!

Oh, I remember how it goes

If only we had a guitar, then I could sing it super nicely

This is my guitar teacher

Uh, no I’m just a fellow camper

Oh, so you’re a camper, too!

Welcome Well, come in

Here’s a chair for you

I’m sure it started with a D-minor chord

Man, I’m stuck on the first note!

- D-minor is… - D-minor… D…

- You know where the D is, right? - Yes

Here, place your middle finger here like this

Then move this finger further down

Oh, right! Now I remember

The starry skies…

Now back to C

The starry skies and the milky way…

Hold on, is this not it?

The B… wait…

The B-flat is… Here, like this

- Here - Ah, there are too many chords, so…

Man, this is quite hard

It’s because it’s been too long, okay? I can play it

- It's hard - Or how about I play the guitar,

and you sing to it?

Will you do that for me?

- Then please - Sure

That should be better for everyone, right?

Yes, so please do a good job now

That man’s a singer

Really? What does he sing?

- I don't know - One, two, three, four

The starry skies and the milky way galaxy

One, two, three, four

Our blue planet Earth

where my dream and your dream rest

Our hot tears will be

the symbol of justice one day,

so come at us, all!

Here come the mighty warriors of Planet Earth!

Two, three, four

We’re going to fly toward the infinite sky,

spreading our golden wings,

because we’re the mighty Three Musketeers

in search of the lost time capsule!

So…

Dad, are you crying?

Uh, it’s not what you think it is

Honey!

Dad!

Honey!

Daddy’s just fine

Daddy's fine Don't worry

Sir, please stop talking for a moment

We can only take one other family member

I’ll go with him

Ah, okay

We’ll be taking him to the City Center Hospital

Please come to that hospital

Do you have money for a taxi?

Yeah, I do

I’ll come with her

Will you do that for us?

Thank you

All right, step back

I’m going to shut the door

Well, we should be on our way, too

Excuse me

Are you feeling okay?

Diabetes?

Yes, he’s diabetic

Watch what you eat, exercise, and quit smoking and drinking

Okay

In return, I’ll try and make time to go camping with you

Me too

Really?

You promised

Shall we listen to some music?

Turn on the Bluetooth

How do you do this?

- Oh, wow… - Oh, that scared me

Good work, team

- Hold on a second… - Let’s first get some sleep

and unload our things later

Yes, let’s do that

You guys go ahead first I’m going to make a quick phone call

Don’t worry, Daddy’s just fine

Yes, I got it So that’s enough now

See you later

Hey, I know you’re just being shy

So, Ji-yoon

Have you come to a decision?

Yeah

- Well, then Let’s hear it - Yeah

It's a butterfly

(Peppermint Candy)

(Five years ago)

Breakfast? That’s not what’s important right now, is it?

I’m sure something must’ve happened to him

He must’ve come down ill or something

Look, have I ever been wrong, huh?

Goodness! You selfish prick… You only care about your food

Oh, my goodness! Silly me!

One, two… Oh .

Hey, what did you bring today?

Same as always, of course

I brought some things I grew in my garden

Well, what more should I do?

You said if my working day falls on a market day,

you’ll keep her company

But she keeps throwing a fuss whenever she sees me,

telling me to pay her back when I owe her nothing

And I’ve just about had enough!

Pay her back? For what?

Well, she keeps on nagging me to pay back her seed potatoes

Seed potatoes?

I guess you do owe her then

When Grandpa was still with us,

you took those seed potatoes to start a farm, didn’t you?

But that was eons ago!

So how much do you owe her?

One kilogram

Geez, I’ll bring you a whole truck

so just bear with her

Is that so hard?

It’s not because I don’t want to pay her back!

It’s because she’s always getting on my nerves

That’s what you call twisted

Twisted? You little…

Sometimes you’re worse than my own family

But aren’t we family, too?

We all live in the same village

Ha! We elected a weasel for village chief

I’ll bring you a whole sack,

so please walk her back when you do leave

Well, I’ll see you later

Eat something before you go

I’m fine

My nephew-in-law said he’ll bring his car today,

so I was planning to escort her home in comfort, you know

Bet you didn’t know that, did you?

Goodness, Gran How was business today?

Who are you?

Why, I’m Gran Hwa-sun’s nephew-in-law!

I guess you don’t remember me

Hwa-sun opened her place today, did she?

Yes, she did

Why, there’s something I needed to pass on

Well, she happens to be waiting at the parking lot

She sent me here to escort you

Did she now?

Hi there!

So, how was business today?

Hey, I’ve something to say to you

Well, get in first

We can always talk on the way

No, that’s not it

Ugh, come here

I paid you back with a handsome interest, okay?

Goodness, there’s really no need for that!

So, it was a kilogram that you owed me, was it?

Just get in first

We’ll do the settlements on the way

No, no I can take the bus Goodness

How will you carry all that back?

Ugh, good grief…

Just hop in, and say no more

Now!

Here, you can take all these

Consider them the interest I owe you

No, forget it

Take all of these with you, I say!

- This is enough for me - Come on!

Ugh, man, she's just so stubborn…

I’ll carry that inside for you

No, no We know you’re a busy man, so be on your way now

Oh, and here

- Bom, make sure you come with me - Thank you

when the market opens again next

Okay, okay Thanks

Don’t carry all those heavy things on your own, now

- Goodbye - Sure, thanks

So what is that?

Peppermint candy

Why didn't she give me any?

Damn it

Look who’s here! Isn’t this my angel?

Gran!

Oh!

Did you trip over and hurt yourself?

No, I was only cleaning out the ash in the furnace

I scattered it in the garden

You didn’t have to do that!

What about dinner?

You must be hungry, right?

- Yes! - Okay, okay

Well, go wash up

I’ll cook up something real quick

Oh…

Yes, yes Here There you go

Make sure to chew it well, okay?

Okay

By the way, do you still ride that dreadful-looking thing?

I’ll be careful

It’s just that I’ve been having these strange dreams lately

Watch out for cars,

and always raise your hand when crossing the road, all right?

Okay, I got it

And didn’t you say you’ll come down as soon as the summer break starts?

How come it’s taking you longer and longer to come down here, huh?

You know very well that I'm waiting for you

I’m sorry

Looks like she has a guest

Gran

What is it, my angel?

Well…

Are you feeling sick?

No, not really

Don’t pretend you’re not

Come here and lie down

Oh, hurry and lie down

This is a disaster…

No, I’m really fine, Gran

Now straighten your back

Stay still

Look that way

Goodness, look at this!

That’s pretty serious

Now, give me your foot

Yes, go on and drink that up now

That's it Now you need to drink some more water…

Oh .

Oh… here, drink some more of it

That's it! You're so good at drinking it

Let me rub, rub, rub your sick tummy with my cure-all hands…

Let me rub, rub, rub your sick tummy with my cure-all hands…

- Gran - Yes?

I’m sorry

For what?

For not visiting you more often

You don’t have to come so often, just don’t fall sick now

So, how do you feel now?

I’m all better now

Take care of yourself now

Don’t make me worry

All right

So Gran,

can I sleep here with you tonight?

Of course!

You’re always welcome to sleep next to me, my angel

Let me rub, rub, rub your sick tummy with my cure-all hands…

Let me rub, rub, rub your sick tummy…

I’ll always remember

that night when we’d sing to my old guitar

It was probably around this time, yeah

Oh, we’d sing to the wheels of the train echoing on the railroad,

on that midsummer night,

like drum beats

Our melody would climb up that green hill

until our hearts exploded

Oh, the memories

Don’t forget those memories

Let’s sing for eternity,

right now, at this moment

And until our memories

will shine like those stars above,

stay with me, like always

You’re coming straight to Seoul Station tomorrow, are you?

Do we have to take our bikes? It’ll be so much work

But you always enjoy it the most in the end

Well, I’m going to Nagwon Instrument Arcade

I need to buy a gift for Gran

Hey, you should’ve bought something already

Did you buy it already?

Then what did you get for her?

None of your business Anyway, I’m off

Don’t be late tomorrow

Kevin!

Oh, hello

How have you been? Good?

Yes, well… the same as always

If you’re all right for time, how does a cup of tea sound?

Our CEO would like to meet with you directly

Us?

I’ll tell you this now, but our thoughts are the same

We don’t want you both

But Producer…

I thought we already talked about it

You should leave some doors open,

otherwise opportunities won’t fly in

To be honest with you, I’m finding it

extremely uncomfortable having this conversation

I’ll be frank with you then

There are just two types of people I detest in this world,

and that’s people who have money to burn,

and who are much younger than me

And our CEO happens to be both,

but I still like him

I like his decision-making

- Producer… - You can’t expect to land

a golden-ticket opportunity from the start

But if this really is my chance,

I should be excited and my heart pounding

Well, you just described what I’m feeling right now

You and my boss are my two favorite people,

so when I think about you two finally meeting each other,

my heart won’t stop pounding like crazy with excitement

So come on, why not just meet him?

Who knows what’ll come out of it?

Perhaps you may be able to convince him otherwise yourself, Kevin

(Something came up at the last minute, so I may be a little late)

(Sang-wook/What is it?)

(Let’s talk when we do meet up tomorrow)

I don’t believe this

I already paid you back yesterday,

so don’t tell me I still owe you!

Who are you accusing of feigning innocence here, huh?

But yesterday, my nephew-in-law…

That’s one kilogram of seed potatoes you owe me

And just so you know, I won’t budge until I receive them from you!

Get that away from here

Why are you doing business in someone else’s spot, huh?

Here, come take a look! I grew these myself…

She’s a money-grubber, that woman!

Gran, don’t say that now

But you never saw those eyes of hers, when she screamed

on top of her lungs, demanding her repayment

Gran!

What?

That's not the reason!

Hey, you know I’m only saying all this

because I’m genuinely worried for her

I grew these myself

Gran!

Goodness, isn’t this our village chief?

You must be busy, aren’t you?

Did you walk all the way here?

Oh, you're sweating so much

Come sit down I’ll bring you a glass of water

No need Actually, uh…

There’s a favor I wanted to ask you

- Hold the handle up there - Yes

Yes, yes Be careful as you climb up

Ha!

Your foot…

Thank you

That’s right I saw you had a guest over the other day

A guest?

Yes

Oh! You mean my grandson?

Grandson?

Yes, my grandson

Oh! Your grandson’s friend came to visit, did he?

No, my grandson who’s still in elementary school

You know, the one who always comes to visit me during summer break

You mean Sang-wook?

Yes, my angel

Gran, this is enough

You can take the 70 dollars back

No need to give me a discount! Charge me fairly

I did charge you fairly, Gran

So that’s for Sang-wook, is it?

You think my angel will like it?

Yes, Producer

I’m sorry I don’t think I can make it

to the meeting with your CEO after all

I had a prior appointment with Sang-wook

I’m really sorry

(Yangmok Station)

Half past four?

Then it’ll be nighttime by the time we arrive

(Seoul Station)

Hey, I’m at Seoul Station right now

Have you arrived?

Yeah, just now

Take your time

See you soon

Okay

Well, it’s been a long time

How about a race?

You see, there’s something I wanted to

discuss with you That’s why I called, and…

No, there are no issues

But I still wanted to meet with you in person, at least once

Honey,

we won’t be seeing meat on our dinner table for a while

Still, aren’t you pleased too?

Now our angel will have a nice, sturdy bike that’s safe

Yes, I knew you’d like it, too

Is that you, my angel?

Gosh, I must’ve dozed off

Gran…

Sang-wook, don’t ride that dreadful-looking thing anymore

Ride that one instead! That one over there

Gran…

What is it? You don’t like it?

No, I like it very much, Gran

Then you should say, “Thank you, Gran ”

Thank you… Gran Thank you

Then why don’t you sing for me, my favorite song?

You know, the song you wrote for me

The one that goes, ‘Let’s meet again when the safflowers bloom ’

Sure, all right

When I open my eyes early in the morning,

Gran is no longer in sight

She’d left me behind to follow safflower petals

and so I wait for her to return

But it’s okay to wait, it’s a beautiful morning

When the safflowers start to bloom again,

oh, I’ll be back

When this season comes around once more,

embrace me in your warmth

When the flowers start to wilt,

I’ll have to depart once again

but I'll leave my love behind

But when that season comes around

when you start to miss me dearly,

soon I’ll be back

to embrace you in my arms

(The present)

(Out of business)

Tsk, enough of this bullcrap Seriously

Sir!

Kevin!

Man, long time no see! How have you been? Good?

Yeah, I guess What about you?

Me?

As you can see, I went bust

It’s okay, it’s okay!

That can happen when you run a business

Still, promise me you’ll come and sing once we do re-open

Sure, I’ll do that

So what brings you here?

Just dropping by while I’m in town

Well, go on in

Huh?

You should say goodbye while you’re here, shouldn’t you?

Even if your past footsteps

weren’t all that glorious…

It’s like I’m clutching at sand

that’s escaping through my fingertips

I can’t see ahead of me

Will I be smiling once I reach the end of this road?

Take one step at a time,

take that burden off your shoulders

Take a moment to catch your breath, then turn around

Even if your past footsteps

weren’t all that glorious,

they’re still a beautiful memory

because you managed to get up, each time

There’s no need to rush to find what you’re looking for

because what’s truly important

has always been right beside you

It’s okay to be scared,

because that means you’re practicing caution

It’s okay to fall over

because you can always get back up

When the path ahead is all dark,

I’ll be your shining light, your guide

Take one step at a time,

take that burden off your shoulders

Take a moment to catch your breath, then turn around

Even if your past footsteps

weren’t all that glorious,

they’re still a beautiful memory

because you managed to get up, each time

There’s no need to rush to find what you’re looking for

because what’s truly important

has always been right beside you

It’s your past footsteps

that led you to your present glory!

The day will come when you’ll be laughing

as much as the tears you shed

So sing with all your heart

Sing for today, sing for this night

until you finally bloom

Sing for today, sing for this heart, sing for this night

Until you bloom

Sing for today, sing for this heart, sing for this night

Until you bloom
