High Kick! Episode 79

Hey, do it right!

I'm home.

Good. The rice is almost done. It'll just be a minute.

Why isn't the rice done yet? I'm hungry.

Why are you eating chicken now when we're having lunch soon?

I only ate a little bit for breakfast.

If you asked me if I would live with my wife in another life,

I would respond confidently

that if I were born again,

I would love and date and marry my wife.

Liar.

What?

He's saying he would live with his current wife? That's a lie.

Why? He's probably being sincere.

If I were born again, I would live with Haemi.

What?

What if I were born a male?

Then, I'll be born a female.

Our meeting wasn't chance.

It was because we willed it so.

Oh, come on.

Mother. If you were born again, would you live with Father?

- What? - Would you live with Father?

Why ask? If I didn't marry her, who would? I'm the only one who would marry her.

Wow, your self-confidence is amazing.

Mom, would you really live with Father again?

Oh, be quiet. Let me watch TV. Jang Donggun is on.

Come meet Jang Donggun

with his sweet-as-chocolate smile

and intense-as-fireworks charisma.

He's so handsome. How is he so good-looking?

He's a sculpture, he is.

Father, Mother's avoiding giving an answer.

I don't think you should be so over confident.

Don't be disrespectful. Is the rice ready?

I'll set out the rice in a minute.

Why didn't you answer?

What?

They asked if you would live with me or not. Why didn't you answer?

Come on, don't act childish in front of the kids.

It's not childish. Why aren't you answering?

Are you not going to live with me? Is that it?

Is there really another life? Why talk about something that doesn't exist?

If there were, what would you do?

Answer me. Would you live with me or not?

Why does it matter?

Hurry up. Would you live with me or not? Well? Would you live with me or not?

Are you crazy? Why would I live with you?

Suffering through one lifetime with a callous bumpkin like you is plenty.

Why would I want to go through that again?

No, thank you. I'd rather be an old maid.

- Lunch is ready. - Yes.

Mother, should we open the seaweed?

Sure.

Mother, is something wrong?

I don't know.

He must be mad because I said I wouldn't live with him in the next life.

We'll start with page 11 next time. Don't forget to do your homework.

Yes, ma'am.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello.

I'll sell Jeonghyeon Chemicals, and keep Sojeong Construction and Jiyeon Aquatics.

And my stockbroker friend says we should buy Byeonggun Pharmaceuticals.

What in the world is the reason, what?

Oh, they developed a new wonder drug, so...

Not you.

What's the reason, what?

Me? What?

Why won't you live with me? What's the reason?

That again? My goodness.

What is it? What's the reason? Why won't you live with me, why?

Oh, my, Father. Were your feelings hurt because Mother wouldn't live with you?

My feelings hurt? Me? Don't be ridiculous.

My feelings don't get hurt.

I'm curious, is all. Curious.

I want to know why the old bat would say something like that.

Please, just eat your meal.

Tell us, Mom. I want to know, too.

Who would you live with, if not with Father?

I want to live with a hot husband like Jang Donggun, okay?

Jang Dung-gun? Which old fart is Jang Dung-gun? Who is he?

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, my goodness? Woman! Who's Jang Donggun?

Father, he's a movie actor. The guy who was just on TV.

A movie actor?

You don't know who the best-looking man in Korea is?

No.

So the reason you don't want to live with me

is because you want to live with that Jang Dung-gun or whatever?

Yes, I want to see what it's like to marry a good-looking man like Jang Donggun.

You can marry Lee Youngae.

Lee Yongae? Who in the world is Lee Yongae?

Father, you really don't know any stars.

Fine, go live with Jang Dung-gun. You live with Jang Dung-gun,

and I'll live with Lee Yongae or whatever her name was.

Okay. Just thinking about living with the best-looking man in Korea makes me swoon.

So, Father, we should buy about 100 shares of Byeonggeon Pharmaceuticals...

Don't buy it, don't buy it! Don't buy anything!

Search: Jang Donggun

Oh, that's Jang Donggun? He's not good-looking at all.

- Thank you, Miss Seo. - Yunho.

You can't keep doing this when your desk is right next to his.

I can't seem like I'm foolishly waiting around for him.

He's probably trying to figure out how I'm doing so I have to act cool.

Just act like nothing's wrong. Yes.

Brightly, brightly...

Mr. Lee, did you have lunch? Would you like some coffee?

You're going to be uncomfortable because my seat gets a lot of sunlight.

I like sunlight.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Oh, I'm trading seats.

Miss Seo, is that extra coffee?

What? Yes. Take it.

Mr. Lee asked me to trade seats with him, so I'll be sitting here.

We're desk buddies now, so we'll be seeing each other often.

I see...

My. Lee, the administrative office wants an inventory list. What should I do?

Just... Throw one together.

We just had lunch and you're already snacking again.

Why did you come up again?

Because I had to do something.

Give me some tea. We still have some from Hwagae, right?

Can you get it yourself? I'm watching a movie.

What?

Did you see Taegeukgi?

Junha borrowed it, and it's really good.

Taegeukgi?

Well, well, who do we have here? Isn't that Jang Dung-gun?

Yes. Now you recognize him?

So, you're not going to make your husband tea because you're watching Jang Dung-gun?

I was watching the movie when you came out of nowhere. Don't bother me.

I'm bothering you?

Oh, okay. If Jang Donggun asked you, you would have done it in a flash.

But when I ask you, it's bothersome, is that it?

It's because I'm not Jang Donggun, I'm Lee Sunjae.

Oh, don't start. Stop picking fights.

Picking fights? If you like Jang Donggun that much, go live in Jang Donggun's house.

Why are you here?

And Jang Donggun didn't buy that TV, I did.

Go to Jang Donggun's house and watch movies or sing the blues or whatever.

Oh, alright, alright. I'll make you your tea. My goodness.

How is that bug-eyed punk good-looking?

You wouldn't even call that a face if you compared it to when I was young.

Look how scrawny he is. He might as well be a girl.

She has the worst taste in men.

Father, are you serious?

What?

Why are you doing that in here? What if the water spills over?

You're supposed to do this without water. But, were you serious?

That you're much better looking than Jang Donggun?

What, what? What of it, you idiot?

Oh, don't do that with food.

Don't you have to go back down?

Give me some money.

Why? What for?

What do you mean, why? I need to buy groceries.

Minyong seems to have lost his appetite. I want to buy him some sashimi.

You know how he likes sashimi.

Why are you asking me for money?

Go ask that Jang Donggun that you like so much.

What?

Since you like Jang Donggun so much, go ask him.

Isn't he your future husband?

Then get money for groceries from him. He wouldn't ignore his wife, right?

Why, you... Knock it off already!

So, you're not going to make Jang Donggun do anything, are you?

I have to break my back to earn money,

while you live with Jang Donggun. That's not fair!

Oh, my goodness.

What is with him?

Who are trying to look good for?

Stop trying to pick fights. I'm just putting on lotion.

Oh, Jang Donggun.

You must be going to meet Donggun.

Honestly!

Why won't you stop? Why?

And it's not Jang Donggun, it's Jang Donggun. Get it right.

Oh, you're mad I got your husband's name wrong.

Don't get mad. You'll get wrinkles.

If you get wrinkles, Jang Donggun won't like it.

You're lucky I don't mind wrinkles. Jang Donggun wouldn't stand for it.

Are you serious?

Were you there the whole time, Miss Seo?

You did that on purpose, didn't you?

I didn't know.

You said you wouldn't give me a hard time anymore.

Miss Seo, you're really ugly when you make faces like that.

What?

You're at least decent when you laugh. Force yourself to laugh if you have to.

Is something wrong?

No.

I taught you that high kick.

If you're mad, get mad, and if you want to beat someone up, do it.

Didn't you learn anything from me? Did you forget it all already?

- What? - I'm done cleaning. Bye.

Yunho, you didn't finish cleaning!

Miss Seo. Hurry up. Dinner.

Okay.

Boys, you should only be cleaning right now.

- Okay. - Okay.

Minho, you can take care of things, right?

I have some business I have to see to.

- Sure. - Thanks. See you tomorrow.

- Good-bye. - Good-bye.

Hey, Miss Seo's changed, hasn't she?

What has?

She doesn't trip anymore. She didn't trip all day.

Hey, you're right. That's weird.

Miss Seo!

Are you okay?

There she goes.

Oh, there's Miss Seo. Hurry, now. Are you ready?

I'm hungry.

You're hungry? Okay. But, what happened to Mr. Lee? Why isn't he here?

There he is. Let's go.

What? Something came up at home, so I can't go.

What came up?

I'm sorry.

Mr. Lee, your social manners are impeccable, bailing on the first outing of the year.

You're so good at maintaining relations. You should run for president, you know that?

What can you do? Let's just go. Let's go.

Let's go.

Home already? You ended early today.

I just came up to pick up some materials I left here.

What's in your hand? It's food, isn't it?

How do you always know?

Father, Kim Gyeongsu left us a box of Korean cookies as a thank you gift.

Oh, really?

Korean cookies? Nice.

- Aren't these expensive? - Of course, they are.

How thankful could he be that he gave you this?

He was paralyzed, but with continued acupuncture, he became much better.

His poor wife suffered so much. She had to care for him all by herself.

It's so difficult caring for paralytics. He can't even go to the bathroom, right?

He was like that for half a year, but now he can walk a little bit.

He should have hired a nurse instead of making his wife do all that.

Why torture yourself like that?

Torture?

If I collapse, you're not going to take care of me?

What?

Are you going to take care of me or not?

Oh, you're fine.

If I collapse. What are you going to do if I collapse?

Why suffer like that? I can't do it.

What?

Mom, you should just say you would.

No way. If I do, he'll throw a fit later that I'm not keeping my promise.

Do you expect me to clean up after you at this age?

So if you want me to take care of you in your old age, stay healthy. Got it?

Oh, I see how it is.

That's right.

Then, what about Jang Donggun? Are you going to leave him alone, too?

What?

The expression on your face says you would take care of Jang Donggun.

So, you won't take care of me, but you'll take care of handsome Jang Donggun?

What are you talking about?

You'll only do it for Jang Donggun! Are his feces made of gold or something?

Father. You're taking it too far.

I'm not taking it too far, it's the truth.

Is mine plain old waste, but Jang Donggun's gold poop? Or diamond poop?

Oh, what's wrong with you? You've been acting childish all day.

Childish? Woman, you're the one making me act this way!

So, my waste is waste, but Jang Donggun's is an apricot?

Is it fragrant like apricots? Is it worthy of kings?

I was wrong. I was wrong. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

What's wrong with him? Has he gone senile?

Father must think of Jang Donggun as his rival.

What?

Does Father really think that?

Wait, so it's a love triangle with Mother, Father, and Jang Donggun?

It's because he loves Mother so much. You're lucky, Mother.

Hey, if Jang Donggun heard that, he'd faint from shock.

Oh, my goodness.

Round two, we have to go to round two.

Let's go to a bar. I know a good one.

- Oh, really? - What about drinking soju?

Miss Seo, are you okay?

What? I'm fine.

You've been pale all night. You barely ate at dinner.

Oh, I've been having stomach problems. I'm taking medicine for it.

I don't think I can do another round.

Okay, then. It's probably better if you go home and rest.

Yes.

Vice Principal Hong, Miss Seo is going to go home and rest now.

- Why, why? - Where are you going?

- Come with us. - Come with us.

I'm sorry. Have fun.

Munhwa Apartments in Daebang.

Sure.

You're going to be uncomfortable because my seat gets a lot of sunlight.

I like sunlight.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Oh, I'm trading seats.

It's okay, it's okay.

What?

Nothing.

Oh, I was supposed to call Boyeong.

Where is it? Oh...

Excuse me, mister. I'm sorry, but could you turn the car around?

Look at this. How could you compare me with this guy?

Eyes. Whereas my eyes are a harmonious balance of savagery and intelligence,

his eyes are just big.

Compared to my high, straight nose,

the only thing he has to show are his two nostrils.

Lips. My manly lips show a subtle strength in the hard line they form.

But this punk's lips are just an opening.

Better-looking than Jang Donggun

Objectively speaking, I'm much better looking.

Something's wrong with the old woman's eyes.

Does your taste in men go bad when you get old, too?

Are you going somewhere?

To Yeonggeun's.

You always drink a lot when you see him. You'll be late, won't you?

Have fun. Don't drink too much.

Jun, let's eat.

What's this? Why did he hang that in here?

You said something came up at home.

Was that an excuse because you didn't want to be around me?

Did you have to...

I thought you'd be uncomfortable.

Is the cat being considerate to the mouse?

I didn't know you were such a thoughtful person.

You must have forgotten something.

Good night.

Mr. Lee, wait!

Don't... Don't you have anything to say to me?

At least give me an excuse.

It's like I barely exist to you.

Make an excuse or something.

How can you act so selfishly?

Were you always such a rude person?

What do you want me to say?

Anything, I don't care.

Even if it's bad. Just let it all out, please.

I feel like my heart is going to burst from frustration.

Please, say anything. Even if it's just an excuse.

I thought I would get bored.

What?

I thought I would get sick of you if we kept dating.

I get bored easily.

I thought it would be better to end things before I got bored.

Just pretend you had a bad fall while walking down the street.

You fall a lot anyway.

Just pretend it was one of those slips.

I told you from the very beginning that you'd regret dating me.

If you listened to me then, none of this would have happened.

That's an excuse, right?

No.

Bye.

Mr. Lee!

Can I ask you a favor?

Can I hit you, just once?

If you let me hit you just once, I think I can move on.

Okay, then.

Once is not enough. It's okay if I hit you a few more times, right?

That feels good. I feel a little better now.

Good-bye.

Can you get home by yourself? You seem pretty drunk.

I'm fine. I'm fine. I can go by myself.

Okay, get home safe.

Hey. Who is this punk? Well, if it isn't Jang Donggun.

The Jang Donggun that my Na Munhee loves!

You scumbag. You're mine tonight.

You puny, funny-looking punk. You've got nothing on me.

What are you doing?

Wait a minute.

That, that, that...

Great, just look at this. That crazy old man...

Miss Seo.

Oh, Yunho.

Am I glad to see you. I'm getting chicken. Do you want some?

My treat. Take it home and eat it.

Miss Seo, you look like you're in a good mood.

Yeah. I'm in a good mood. I followed your advice and got mad and high kicked.

I feel really good now. Thanks.

What?

Mister, one more chicken, no, three more, please.

Hey, you're late.

Shinji.

What's that?

I bought roast chicken. Let's eat.

Roast chicken? I'll get fat.

Hey, you have to have some. I bought a lot.

You bought beer, too?

Yeah, let's make a toast.

Is there something to toast to?

Of course.

To Miss Seo's new start. Cheers, everyone.

One, two, three, cheers.

Hey, drink, drink.

Have some chicken, too.

Hello?

Oh, Sugyeong. What's up?

Yeah, why?

Are you okay?

What are you talking about?

Well, I was wondering if your family said anything to you.

My family? What?

Oh, nevermind. I thought I might have said something I shouldn't have.

Something you shouldn't have said? What are you talking about?
