I may be late.

- Honey! - Yes!

Come in for a second.

Why? What's up?

Why don't you wake up Young-hee?

How could you let her sleep until now?

Perhaps she is already up.

If so, you should tell her to come down.

What are you doing now?

You are so fussy this morning.

She'll come downstairs in time.

You don't know anything. Today is a special day.

She must go to the office.

What's that noise at this time of the day?

She must be doing an excercise...

An exercise...

One, two, three.

What a racket at this early hour!

Grandma, hold my legs.

- One... hold them. - What on earth are you doing?

It's an exercise. It'll make me look smart.

- Please, hold them. - Pomade? Hair grease?

Oh, no, Grandma.

Smart, not pomade. I'll become slim and sexy.

- Hold them. - How can I know those modern words?

If you can be slim, go ahead.

Hey, Young-hee! Hey! Stop stamping and come down here.

Well, Your father has a poor sense.

This is all about meeting the Mister Right. Why is he rushing you like that?

No, the middle, the middle.

Young-hee! Come down quickly.

- The house is collapsing. - Ok!

Son, shine my shoes.

Just give me 50 won.

Oh, boy... Just have breakfast.

Give me some water.

Have you finished your breakfast?

- Have more. - I had enough.

You have no sense.

He has to work with Young-hee in the same company starting today.

- It's natural for him to lose his appetite. - Boy...

- Isn't that right, Dad? - How rude! O h, no...

What are you talking about?

Young-hee has got a job at long last...

But there's no special dish.

That's not why.

You never grumble over food.

Dear, stop nagging and just start eating.

Nagging? Did I say something wrong?

In fact, it isn't such a big deal for a girl to have a job.

Why are you complaining about the dishes?

In the old days...

It was a shame for a girl to have a job.

That's why your grandchildren say that you are old-fashioned.

You always say 'ln the old days, in the old days'...

And yet, you look for modern things like western medicine whenever you're sick.

But I take Chinese medicine too.

Back in the old days, she would have already had two or three babies.

Why do you make a fuss out of her first day at work?

You mean, Young-hee is an Old Miss?

What is an Old Miss?

If you don't know such a modern word, please be quiet.

Knowing new words is everything?

It's better than not knowing.

Oh, No, mother...

The soup is getting cold.

Young-hee!

Mother, have some water.

I tell you beforehand...

Although you work at the head office and I do at the eastern branch,

we work for the same company.

I will hear about everything you do at work.

That's why you should always behave yourself.

You may as well say such a thing at work.

- You have to go now. - Ok, I'll go first.

Young-hee!

On the way back home, buy a handbag for me.

A handbag?

Yes! You'll get your paycheck today.

- Oh my, mother. - Oh, no.

Who gets paid on the first day at work?

We get paid on the last day of the month.

Really?

The same was true for your grandfather.

I guess even the April 19 Revolution could not change that.

- Grandmother, see you. - Take care.

Young-gu! You didn't wash your face again?

- It's okay. - It's okay? Look at your face.

How come you are getting more naughty?

Why can't I do whatever I wanna do with my own face?

- Why? What's the matter? - See you.

Samchully Transportation Inc.

Many tasks of a transportation company like ours have

many staff who are often rough-mannered.

That's why an office girl should be able to lighten up the atmosphere.

I mean, she is the flower of our office.

So I hope you are always smiling and cheerful.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

- Did you introduce her to the others? - Sure.

You may go out.

- Mr. Yu! - Yes.

- Are you done? - Yes.

Here is Miss Gu's desk.

Nothing much will happen from now on.

Make yourself comfortable, please

Miss Gu, our manager didn't introduce me to you very well.

Let me introduce myself again.

I'm 30 years old and am a single woman.

I am also senior to our manager in this office.

Let's be good friends.

Let me introduce myself again too.

I'm 35 years old.

I'm wearing a mustache, but I'm still an innocent bachelor.

- Anyway, nice to meet you. - Why?

Miss Gu, what would you like to have for lunch?

- I'm not hungry. - I see.

Mr. Tacky.

What?

Since you are clinging to her, I call you Mr. Tacky.

I had a light breakfast. Treat me to lunch.

I am sorry,

but I'm not hungry like Miss Gu.

Why don't you go for lunch by yourself?

Be careful.

There are many dangerous men in this company.

Mr. Yu is especially dangerous.

Anyway, let's have lunch.

Isn't there a staff cafeteria?

Our staff cafeteria? Don't even think about it.

Though I often go there for a cheap lunch,

If you have lunch there, your youth would fade within a week.

But, my father always goes there from the branch office.

Yes, it's a good place for cheapskates.

- Hi! Seolleongtang, please. - Yes, sign here.

Hi! You again.

- We meet only at the cafeteria. - Well, you are right.

Our dishes seem to suit your taste.

Well, they are very cheap.

- Kukbob. - Ok, Kukbob.

Kukbob.

- Yes, here you are. - Come back quickly.

Please have a seat here.

- Mr. Gu, sit here. - Ok.

Hey, Seulleongtang.

Kukbob.

Well, doesn't this look like a prison cafeteria?

No! It looks good.

Mr. Kwon! Let me introduce Miss Gu.

She started working in the General Affairs Office today.

Hello, I am Kwon Oh-chul.

Nice to meet you.

Ok, write down your name and sign here.

Mr. Kwon is also a new recruit who justjoined us.

Yeah, who? Gu Young-hee?

Yes, she is here.

Your manager told you to come up.

I ought to go up now.

What should I have today?

- Seulleongtang, please. - Ok, sign here.

Sir, did you have lunch?

Yes, I did at Kukje Hotel.

Come in, please.

- Sir, this is... - Who is it? Just a moment.

What?

Where is your cheif?

The head office? For lunch?

Well, just a sec. He's eating in this situation?

Is this cafeteria?

It's me!

It's me! Let me speak to Mr. Gu!

Send him up right away.

Damn it! What the hell is he doing?

Everybody puts eating before everything else.

If only they would skip a meal for the company, like me.

- Hold your tongue. - Yes.

- Well, this is... - Wait there.

Hey! Where is it?

The place where the truck overturned.

Come in, please.

Come here.

Did you call me, sir?

Hey, were you starving that much? Even I haven't eaten yet.

If It overturned in Jinburyeong...

Oh, right. The truth is...

The truth is what?

In the midst of such a terrible accident,

you're having lunch?

Do you think you did your duty as the branch chief?

I'm ashamed. I'm really sorry.

Because you are solaid-back,

your men are following your example!

How many days have passed since the accident...

Well, that's... in fact...

You must feel better now, sir.

Flavored glutinous rice doesn't agree with me...

Anyway,

how could you have started the assessment of the damage just now?

I'm sorry.

You should be more considerate of the owner of the company.

Did the driver survive?

Why? You don't like what I'm saying?

You seem to misunderstand something.

Misunderstand what?

A truck of your branch overturned in Jinburyeong on its way to Sokcho...

No, that's not true, sir.

The truck didn't overturn.

- It didn't overturn? - No.

A package fell down when the driver took a sharp turn on the road.

You should have said so sooner!

I am sorry.

You almost frightened me.

I apologize.

So what was the package That fell down?

It was an empty box.

What? An empty box?

Have a seat. I see.

Excuse me. Was I interrupting you?

Dad!

Who is she?

She is a new recruit and is Mr. Gu's...

Ah, I see! Mr. Gu's daughter?

- Hey, bring some tea. - Yes, sir.

A flower blooms in our company at long last.

Don't you agree, sir?

How talkative you are!

Zip up your mouth, young man.

Why do we come up to the cold rooftop of all places?

There's no other quiet place.

Ah, it's freezing. What's up?

From the beginning,

I've never liked the idea of you and I working at the same company.

I know that.

But your mother was adamant

and talked to the executive director's wife for you.

So I got a job like this.

But, weren't you disappointed to see me

being scolded by the executive director?

Don't say that.

I am more disappointed at your way of thinking.

You are too shy and fainthearted.

Yes.

I don't feel bad at all.

You couldn't do otherwise with your boss.

You couldn't help it!

You understand my position?

I'm also a salarywoman from today.

I was afraid that if we worked together,

you would soon find out the kind of life I have in the company.

Although this happened sooner than I expected,

I actually feel better.

Oh, dad! You are like a child.

I'm much different from the father you know, right?

No, you seem to be so embarrassed about nothing.

And you kept on saying 'Excuse me.'

That's because he shouted at me...

If I tell this story at home, they would die laughing.

Please don't!

Please, don't say...

Don't worry. I'm a good girl.

If you tell,

I would lose my face as the head of our family.

- Dad? - Yes.

- My handbag is worn out. - Your handbag?

Yes, but I may keep carrying it with me.

How much is it?

While imports from the USA cost up to 30,000 won,

those made in Korea go for about 5,000 won.

Mr. Gu!

Executive director is asking for you!

Oh, ok,

I'll think about it.

Electricity bill, water bill, inhabitant's tax...

I am in the red now.

Soaring rice prices and overdue bills...

How can I manage this?

Mom!

- Young-hee? - Yes.

You're back now.

- My feet are cold. - It must have been cold.

- Come on in. - Mom, it's cold, cold, cold.

You must be tired.

Sit by the fire.

You must be hungry. I'll bring something to eat.

Mother.

Grandma!

You came back early today. So how was it?

What Do you mean?

Is the company really big?

Well, I don't know if it is big or not.

How could you not know?

- Dear, have some cake first. - Wow, where did you get it?

- Share It with your grandmother. - Ok.

How was your Dad?

Dad?

Does he act like a boss, just like he does at home?

Well, how can I say...

I met him only for a minute at lunch.

- Oh, mom! - Why?

- Dad said he will be late tonight. - What? He will be late?

Yes, he has something to discuss with his executive director.

- Oh, really? - Yes.

- With his executive director? - Yes.

Oh my! Your dad seems to be an important person in his company now.

He consults directly with the executive director!

I asked her to prepare something to eat,

but there seems to be nothing to take with wine.

It's okay.

Jun-taek, let's get drunk tonight.

- Oh, no. - Oh, yes. It's ok. Ok.

- Help yourself. - Yes.

I am ok.

- By the way... - What?

Whose house is this?

- Don't you really know? - No.

- Honey! - Yes. You're back.

- Well, where have you been? - I went out to get some air.

Make yourself at home.

This is Mr. Gu Jun-taek,

chief of the eastern branch, whom I've always spoken of.

Hello. Just call me Myoung-Ok.

I am Gu Jun-teak. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

We were having a drink by ourselves.

Why don't you get changed first?

I'm sorry.

- I'll get changed. - Hurry up.

Excuse me for a moment.

Take a seat.

Do you know where We are now?

This is your mistress' place, isn't it?

You're a bit slow.

Must I tell you every detail to make you understand the situation?

I am sorry.

You are the first staff I have brought d to this place. Do you get it?

Really? I am honored.

She is quite a beauty.

This is flattering. You know...

There's something I want to talk to you about.

Yes, go ahead.

You know, I've been insisting that the way to improve the staff's spirit

is to offer programs that keep pace with the times.

Yes, that's why I thought of launching a company soccer club.

No, kicking is too rowdy and wild.

There's a better way to improve and modernize our staff's spirit.

You know, in more civilized and elegant ways.

I'm thinking of social dance.

What do you think?

Yes.

- What Do you think? - I can say that it's up to you, sir.

Well, Jun-taek, I know the second floor of the eastern branch office is empty.

So, I would like to open a dancing club there, with you in charge.

- On the second floor of Our office? - Yeah, it's only for our staff

I know very well that dance is not your style, though...

So, what would you say?

Well, whatever you say,

I will do my best to make it work.

Well, in fact...

Myoung-ok said she's very bored during the daytime.

So, she wants to start a dancing club and make some money.

But, there's a license problem if she wants to open a real one.

I would feel safe if we secretly set one up on the second floor.

It'll be good for our improving our staff's taste too.

Yes, I got it.

But, we have to do it very technically.

In other words...

I want nobody to know about my relationship with Myoung-ok

So, it'll be you who knows her, not me.

Yes, I got it.

Come here.

You should keep it a top secret even to your wife.

Rumors spread very quicky among the wives of our staff.

Of course,

I know very well that your wife is sharp-eyed.

My wife is no problem.

Instead, I'm afraid that one of our men might make a bold move to Myoung-ok.

I know she is not that type of woman but,

Jun-Taek, take good care of her.

- Honey! - What?

- Look at me for a second? - Why don't you take a seat?

- Why? - Just come out here, please.

Well...

Why don't we give this to Mr. Gu?

A kind of bribe... How much?

You should give It to him.

- It's exactly 10,000 won. - My hands are a counting machine.

- Shall I give It to him when he leaves? - It's up to you.

Honey, wouldn't he get me wrong if I give it to him?

Sugar, everybody loves money. Money buys anything.

- Hey, he may hear us. - Don't worry.

Dear, that was the first time you had dinner

with your executive director to talk about business,

- wasn't it? - Yes. Let's go in.

- So what did you talk about? - Something good.

Get me some water for washing up.

Yes, there is a big pot of hot water.

Dad!

You didn't tell anybody about this morning, right?

Why don't you trust me? I am a sensible daughter.

- What's this? - Money.

- For what? - Just Take it.

- Why? - Buy a handbag.

- Thanks, dad. - Don't mention it.

- Wash yourself. - Okay.

- The water's getting cold. - I am going now.

Modern men must learn how to dance,

If you're in business...

Excuse me.

- Please, teach me. - Sure.

Mr. Gu! The sales manager of the head office called you!

Sales manager? I see.

Think about it.

Does it make sense to teach dancing to our staff?

I don't have anything to say.

This is a total nonsense.

You actually think that our spirit can be modernized through dancing?

I find this very disagreeable.

I am sorry.

Close the club right away.

What are you going to do?

I'll think about it.

There's no time for thinking.

Whether you close the club or not...

It will affect your promotion chances. So make the right decision.

How could you close the club now?

But the sales manager said...

Never mind. He's not the president. I'm next to the president in rank.

I started the club for her and I can't give up just

because the sales manager is against it?

Right, Myoung-ok?

Thank you, Miss Gu.

Enjoy it, sir.

Get out.

Oh my, ma'am! Hello. Glad to see you.

But if your wife found out...

Hey, man!

Am I doing something illegal?

You are such a chicken.

Ma'am, I don't know how to thank you for helping me to get this job.

My mother is also sorry

that she could not express her gratitude yet.

Well, it's okay. Don't bother.

- Anyway, is my husband here? - Yes, he is, but...

What Do you mean?

Ma'am! Isn't it cold out today?

Yes.

You got a cold.

Yeah, sore throat... really bad cold...

If I can't control my wife,

how could I run a big company like this?

I'm not afraid of anybody. So, don't worry.

I will kick out my wife if she says anything about it.

- Just keep going, OK? - Yes, I got it.

Please.

Well, can I get a record of samba music?

- Yes, please. - Samba, Samba record...

Ma'am, what brings you here?

What? She's here, She's here. She's here.

Here, you go under the desk.

- No, What are you saying? - Come on! Hurry up.

She's here. Hurry up!

Well, you can go in. It should be okay now.

- I beg you a pardon? - No, Just go ahead.

Oh my God, will she be alright?

Dad! Mr. Song would beat Mrs. Song?

He must get violent.

What?

- You're not afraid of what? - What are you doing?

- Spit It out again. - That was not about you

I can't believe this.

Let's go home. There are many people here.

Dad, Mr. Song is so afraid of his wife.

Hey, don't say like that.

Well, he talked tall but he's being beaten now.

Dad, when I saw Mrs. Song coming here, I freaked out...

I was scared to death too.

Dad, you're happy to have a wife unlike her, aren't you?

Why? Your mom has gotten much more sensitive these days.

Straighten up!

Your electric company should do its job right.

Does It make sense that you don't provide power and yet bill the customers?

We even pay more for candles than for electricity.

Do you think we're owls or bats?

What can I do?

Just call the Minister of Trade and Industry about that issue.

That's why I call politicians thieves.

They promise electricity, water and lower taxes...

And they change their words after being elected.

How could we live on like this?

So, don't fall for politicians' sweet talk from now on and just pay for your bill.

I will not fall for sweet talks anymore.

I don't have any money today.

OK, no power for you from tomorrow.

Whatever.

I can't believe this is happening.

Money for no power?

Not bloody likely! The world is going to the dogs.

Myoung-ok...

Who is Myoung-ok?

Excuse me?

- Who is it? - I'm from the district tax office.

It's a taxman this time.

Hey, I said I don't have money.

Tax is a national obligation whether you have money or not.

You're so obstinate.

I know it is. But, I don't have money to pay.

Then, your property will be seized.

Seize Our property?

I can't help it, because it's an order from the ministry.

Oh, no! Is there anything you can do for us?

Well.

- Ah, right. - What?

Well, this is not much but will be enough for your cigarettes.

You're embarrassing me.

Come on, why are you embarrassed?

We are all in the same boat.

- Please. - It's really embarrassing.

- Don't do this, please. - Come on, Just Take lt, please.

Please. Oh, no. Don't do this.

You shouldn't do this.

Anyway, I will reconsider the seizure thing.

Thank you very much.

Holy cow, What a good for nothing!

How could our country make a progress?

Good Lord, how could we live like this?

Why don't you put the shoes in the right place?

It's getting cold again.

I'm tired.

What happened? What's wrong with you?

A taxman dropped by!

We can pay tax when we get some money.

You must have had an argument with my parents.

Young-hee said she's going to the movies with her friends.

What's wrong, honey?

We need to talk.

Honey, old people just say everything out of concern.

You just answer 'yes' and that's all.

- Dear! - Oh my!

It's not like that. I don't even want to talk abou it.

I am fairly taken in

Taken in? What? What are you talking about?

Who on earth is she?

Who? Who Do you mean?

Myoung-Ok.

Ah! That woman...

What a foolish thought!

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Are you playing innocent still?

I didn't think you could cheat, because you are busy trying

to keep our family together on small income.,

- Well, that's true. - What is true?

They say appearances are deceptive

and you should take that to your heart.

Who the hell is Myoung-ok?

Well, there's been a big misunderstanding. Just let me explain.

I don't want to hear your poor excuses.

Why are you eavesdropping like a child?

I asked you to go up and bring my cigarette.

Why don't you go up yourself if you really want it.

And you don't need to yell.

Remember me talking about...

a man who came from Sokcho and lives near my office now?

So?

My company has been shipping his fish and other seafood from Sokcho.

And then his wife gave it to show their gratitude.

Their daughter goes to kindergarten and her name is Myoung-ok.

You're not tyring to fool me, right?

Honey, who on earth can fall for me?

You are making mountains out of molehills.

Then why did you hide it behind the picture?

It was an unexpected money, so I kept it as an emergency fund.

Still, why didn't you leave it with me?

Whatever.

What is mine is yours and yours is...

- Mine. - That's right.

I'll give that taxman some money.

And I will spend the rest of it.

As you like.

- Where's Young-gu? - Who knows?

I got bored of fooling around.

Movies, part time jobs... Nothing is exciting.

I need something special.

How about a wild demonstration?

I'm sick of everything.

There's nothing else left but to have fun with girls.

Hey, you need to watch your mouth.

Freedom to eat, freedom to speak. That is the freedom for mouth.

Who's going to take that away?

Korea is such a small country.

That's because you don't have money.

It's a big country for rich people.

Yeah, you're right.

I think you're catching a cold.

I think I overdid myself today.

Why don't we go to a hotel?

You got money for the hotel?

You are handling all this very well.

You're really going to seduce me?

Don't make light of me because I'm young.

My body has got all the tools every man should have.

You want to check it out?

These are 5,000 won for two?

That's cheap, mother.

More expensive ones cost 5,000 won for one.

They look good, but are too expensive.

Hey, how can you eat a live carp? It's too valuable to eat.

You have to take a good look at it first.

Honey, what do you think?

I'm not sure it's going to work.

This is all about your promotion to the position of a department manager.

- Where are you taking them? - Mr. Song's place.

Oh, I thought they are for us.

I'm not surprised.

Well, Mrs. Song talked about carp one day.

That's why I bought them.

Oh... You're going to bribe her.

- Oh, mother. - What? Bribe?

Honey, The fish doesn't look fresh.

We should give her live ones. Hey, Young-hee!

What are you doing? I told you to come down!

Come here.

Take these to Mr. Song's place.

I can do it, but I feel out of condition today.

And if I run into Mrs. Song, she would talk to me forever.

Do you wanna make dinner instead?

- I don't have time. - Why?

I'm going to a movie with my friends.

Hey, this is a very important matter

that will determine whether your father gets promoted or not.

Take these to the Han river at least.

Young-gu is skating there and he will do the rest.

- It's been a while since I went out. - Do It for me, please.

Well, see? Isn't it more fun than playing in a hotel?

First of all, We can have fresh air.

Well, I'm busy slipping and falling all the way.

That's life.

If you fall, you have to get yourself up and move on.

You're such a philosopher now.

Hey, I will get a bachelor degree next spring.

- Ride It By yourself - Push me gently.

- Young-gu! - Hey, what's up?

Who's that girl?

Why do you ask? You already know the answer.

- Why are you here? - Mom wants you to deliver something.

- What is this? - Carps.

Carps? Where should I deliver them to?

Mr. Song's house.

Don't be silly. How can I do this now?

You know my situation.

I will tell Mom on you.

- You're making a threat? - No, I'm not.

- Just Do it. - No, I can't.

- Just go away, go! - You can't do this.

What the hell?

You dumb ass! Are you blind?

Well, my eyes are not on the back of my head, so I couldn't see you.

Are you making fun of me, asshole?

No, I'm just talking to you.

- You want to get hurt? - I'm sorry. Young-gu, stop it.

Stay still.

Hey, you think I'm a pushover because I'm skinny?

Young-gu! Why did you hit him?

- Son of a bitch... - Get up, Young-gu!

Oh, No, What can I do?

Aagh! You bitch!

Young-gu, run!

Shit. Stop there.

Young-gu, run! I'm going home.

How did all those carps die?

I said it wasn't my intention to have a scuffle

and have them killed.

When will you mature?

You're old enough to get married. So, behave yourself.

I don't want to get married.

Since things happened this way, we'll eat these expensive fish at home.

Well, how can we eat something that costs 5,000 won?

Go out and sell it.

Oh, mother...

Oh, dear...

Dad, don't be too disappointed.

No, I'm not.

You know very well about my situation.

This is the highest position for me.

This kind of thing can't get me promoted.

Your mother doesn't know a thing.

Don't worry.

Hey, I'm sorry about the dead fish.

It's okay. Things can be worse.

- You're going to be chewed out at home? - I didn't do anything wrong.

Anyway, we can have some fish.

Where did you say your father worked at?

He's the chief of the eastern office of Samchully Inc

He's the chief there but has only 4 staff members,

including a porter.

Anyway, I found a better you today.

What?

I didn't know you're that brave and strong.

Don't kid me.

If I wasn't brave, how can I hang around with a playgirl like you?

Oh, you're putting on some airs at my complement.

Anyway...

How long will It Take to be a real skater?

Maybe a week?

A week has passed already.

You're such a loser if you can't do well today.

Maybe, I'm not an athletic person.

Yes, you are. You are very athletic in bed.

Hey!

Let's go.

Oh! Miss Gu! Well...

- Why! Really? - Oh, Yes.

- Check It out. - What?

He's been promoted to head the welfare department.

- Got it? - Yes, sir.

Are you meeting the executive director?

For dinner? Movie?

Beg you a pardon?

Miss Gu, this is an advice from my heart.

Although I am a man,

I must say that you should be careful with men.

Our executive director is especially dangerous.

Oh, what do you mean?

- Kyoung-ja? - Why?

Don't misunderstand me.

Never mind. You're just different from me. That's all.

But, I envy you, sweetie.

No, it's not what you think.

Mr. Song just told me the news...

That they decided to promote my father in a meeting.

Oh, yeah? To be a department manager?

Yes.

- Congratulations, Miss Gu. - Thank you.

Ask him to back you up while he's in a high position.

Please, don't make fun of me.

You did a good job.

I'd like to thank everyone.

I'm thankful that I'm finally getting recognized for my 25 years of service.

It took you 25 years to become a department manager.

Will you need 50 years to becomre a bureau director?

- Dad! -Stop It and Just have some meat.

- Oh, dad! - Don't worry, father.

Honey! This is the first time l feel so happy and honored like this.

Right. You got promoted because of your competence

and I was foolish to buy the fish.

- No, your support helped me a lot. - Oh, dear...

What a wonderful news it is. Dear!

- What do you want? - Oh, you don't know anything.

I called you just because I'm happy.

- Young-gu! - What Do you want?

Dad, can you give me more spending money from now on?

Again...

Give him more money, mom.

He's got a good reason, right?

None of your business!

Why? I'm just supporting you.

What is the good reason, huh?

- What? Let me know. - Yey! He's got a girlfriend.

- Oh, my... - What? A girlfriend?

Oh, no! Students should just concentrate on studying.

You shouldn' ignore students.

We started the April 19 revolution.

Revolution has nothing to do with your love.

Don't give him any more money.

Don't worry.

You ruined my plan.

Why... are you mad?

- What are you talking about? - It's over already.

Did you call me?

- Come on - Ah, Yes

- Sit here - Yes

So, how is it like working in the head office?

I want some more work.

I feel bad that I get paid for doing nothing.

The job of the welfare department manager is like that,

for it's a third class of department managers.

You just care about the fraternity among the staff and their health.

- For those reasons... - Yes, I see.

You take care of the dance club, please.

Don't worry.

Well, that sales manager was sent to the Kang-reung branch.

And my wife hasn't sensed anything yet.

Everything is okay if you do your job right.

Ah, yes. I will do as you said.

But, I had a cold sweat the other day when she came here.

You're still so faint-hearted.

Anyway,

we have a friendly basketball game with Dong-yang Transportation tomorrow, right?

Yes.

We played four games against them, but, we never had a win.

We should win this time.

Well, our players are now undergoing hard training...

It's notjust about players.

In order to win, the cheering squad must try harder to uplift the players' spirit.

Yes, you're right.

I will head the cheering team and do my best,

Yes, you bet.

Well, Dad! Do it with your hand like this.

- Wait, this is... - Once again

One, two, three...

Isn't there another move?

Dad, it's not like that

What are you doing?

Come here, grandma.

Dad is the head of cheering squad for a basketball game.

We're practicing some moves,

but need more people to make it more exciting.

I will call grandfather to come here.

Honey! Come over here.

Oh, what's going on?

Mom, finished with the dishes? Grandma, come here.

- Take it easy! - Come on!

You come too!

Dong-yang Transportaion Samchully Transportation

Damn it!

They're doing it to provoke us. Well, pull yourself together.

Go! Go! Samchully!

Okay, we can do it!

Go! Go! Samchully!

Okay, we can do it!

Sir! What is that?

Do you call that basketball?

Hey, which side are you on?

Why don't you play yourself if you're that good?

Can I? It's a little embarrassing.

He really pissed me off.

I wanted to fire him right away,

but I was so impressed.

You're right, dad.

He had every right to be critical.

He threw a long shot from the half line and he made every shot.

He made all kinds of shot.

The opposing players just couldn't carry the ball past Oh-chul.

That's why the Dong-yang team couldn't get anything going.

Looked like our team can win the game with ease.

Hey, Young-hee!

You know the old maid in your office?

She cheered very loudly for Oh-chul.

I was so excited too.

Our score was going up rapidly.

Whenever he threw the ball, he scored.

He didn't make any mistake. But, Mr. Song didn't show up there.

I was so anxious that he saw everything.

Then, the score became 55 to 62.

Looked certain that we win.

He threw, he scored. He's so talented.

And Mr. Song appeared just after we won the game.

Oh, dad. What a haughty man he is!

I hate the very thought of seeing him at work.

Hey, he has the right to be proud of himself.

He helped us win for the first time

and saved my face too. That's good enough for me.

You must be proud of having a capable man like him among your staff.

Yeah, why not?

I will tell the story to Mr. Song tomorrow

and make Oh-chul captain of the team.

Right. Just promote him to head the sports department.

Honey! Look like you're the president of his company.

Young-gu!

He wants to study abroad in France, doesn't he?

Yes.

You said he is your senior?

Yes, he was the captain of Our basketball team.

Oh yeah? He is a real player then!

Of course. Nobody can play that well all of a sudden.

Why didn't you pat him on the back?

Oh, forget it.

I know you are attracted to him at heart.

If I see him, I will say something nice about you.

Hey, What are you talking about?

Be easy. Young people are like That nowadays.

- Oh, Grandma. - You're the best.

Hey, old people like us should not butt in.

Let's go to bed.

Have you waited long?

You want something to drink? Two coffee, please.

Take a seat here.

Hey, two coffee.

Well, are you going straight home?

Of course. Where else shall I go after work?

I have two free movie tickets. Won't you go to a movie with me?

Which movie theater?

What's the matter?

Oh my! It's Kwon Oh-chul of our cateteria.

She's so pretty.

She doesn't seem like an ordinary housewife, does she?

Let me see...

Ah! That woman... Isn't she a dance teacher

on the 2nd floor of the eastern branch?

- A dance teacher? - How deceptive he is!

When has he changed like that?

They say every man is two-faced!

Perhaps he has the knack for charming women.

Oh, he looks like a real playboy now.

Does he seem to be very close with her?

Why not? She is a dancer!

- What Do you mean? - It goes without saying!

Oh, no! How impure it is!

So What?

Let's talk friendly to make him feel jealous.

Oh, I feel bad.

It repulses me to even see them. I'm going home.

Miss Gu! Miss Gu! Oh my!

Can I cancel one of them?

What?

Oh, my goodness! I am ruined today.

He seemed just not interested in that kind of thing...

how deceitful he is.

That is just like the way he makes a long shot.

What Mr. Yu's saying is true?

Pretty much. I saw It too.

Was she so beautiful that you feltjealous?

What? Why should I be jealous?

Anyway, Mr. Kwon is angry that you are spreading a rumor.

Why don't you go see him?

What for? I didn't do anything wrong.

Notice!

5 o'clock...

Dr. Big bad mouth!

Pardon me?

The reason I insist on the importance of basketball is...

to build a healthy body and mind through sports.

I fully agree with you.

Sports are absolutely necessary to our lives.

Actually, It's not absolutely necessary like you said...

Why do we play basketball more than other sports?

How about playing something that even female staff can enjoy,

like table tennis?

Oh, why? Female staff can also play basketball, can't we?

A basketball player looks like a jumping horse!

- Who wants to do that? - Right, right.

I want...

I would like to do more cultural thing. For example...

I am for it.

A cultural thing sounds better.

A cultural thing? Exactly what?

Doing a dance like Mr. Gu's idea?

Anyway, please suggest more cultural things than basketball.

Then, you think basketball is not a cultural but a wild thing?

Dance is more cultural than basketball at least.

Why is a thing which the idle rich do for killing time is cultural?

Is that why you are culturally dating the dancer at the branch office?

What? Shut up!

Oh my God! How ungentlemanly you are!

What? A cigarette pack?

Yes, suddenly it passed beneath my ear.

If it hit my eye, I would be in the hospital now.

How rude he is!

- He is disgusting. - And then?

A glass of water was suddenly picked up from the table...

What? He even threw water at you?

- No, I did. - Oh my God!

After hearing you, I'm inclined to think that he may be a good company.

- What good company? - Oh mother...

No, I'd rather trust somebody who could throw a cigarette pack

than someone pretends to be kind.

Please, don't say silly things.

How can you tell he is trustworthy?

Does it make sense that there is such a rude

and violent person among your men?

That's what I think.

You are a manager!

And Young-hee is the manager's daughter.

Treating her like that means that he looks down on you.

Fire him immediately!

But dear, Kwon Oh-chul, as far as I know, is a nice, sincere guy.

You say he is sincere, because you don't know anything.

It's okay to fire that kind of man.

We can'tjust fire people on impulse.

But he is such a flirter.

A flirter?

Do you know the dance teacher at the eastern branch?

What about her?

He hangs out with her...

What? Is that true?

Of course. Why would I lie? I saw it with my own eyes.

If that is true, I can't overlook it. What a wicked man he is!

Dad!

- Where are you going? - Where are you going?

I ought to meet Oh-chul.

What are you going to do, Dad?

What am I going to do? I can't keep him in my department?

- I'll fire him right now. - Oh, dad!

He is a terrible man!

You can Just admonish him.

Dear, Do you know where he lives?

- Where is his place? - Where is it?

OK, I'll call the company's night duty office.

- Dad! - Oh dear! He is...

If you had a conscience, you could guess why I'm here.

You came because of what happened at the cafeteria today.

Dr. Big bad mouth seemed to have reported to you again.

Who is Dr. Big bad mouth?

Oh, Excuse me.

- Young-hee, my daughter? - Yes, that's right.

How rude you are to use that kind of language!

I am sorry, but it's undeniable that she is Dr. Big bad mouth.

I wanted to cut out her tongue, but I didn't.

What did you say?

Anyway, I'll forget about it...

Since you came all the way here to apologize.

- You think I came here to apologize? - Isn't that right?

- Oh-chul, Look into my eyes - Why?

- Do you have any eye disease? - An eye disease? Oh, man...

What's the matter with you?

Oh-chul! Agh! It's hot! I won't say anything.

I beg on my knees like this.

I know she is beautiful,

but she isn't a good match for you.

Break up with her! Please, forget her.

Mr. Gu!

Hey, you're still young, right?

Who are you talking about now?

Please, don't do this.

If anything goes wrong, both of us will be fired.

You are referring to Myoung-ok, right?

Why are you laughing? This is a serious matter.

You may laugh at it...

But I endured everything to become a department manager...

just like our ancestors did for 36 years under the Japanese rule.

Suppose I lose my job now.

My son is still a college student and then there are my old parents.

Please, have mercy on me, Oh-chul.

Don't worry about me and Myoung-ok.

Your daughter is spreading a false rumor.

- What? A false rumor? - Yes.

Are you trying to lie to me?

No, I'm not.

Myoung-ok is my cousin, the daughter of my aunt.

The daughter of your aunt?

Yes, she is my cousin.

- Really? - Yes.

I have kept that fact to myself,

since she isn't exactly someone I can be proud of.

- Is It really true? - Of course.

I met her the other day to ask about her opinions.

About What?

Whether she can break up with Mr. Song?

Oh-chul, that is...

No, that isn't right. I am against her way of living.

Indeed, you are right.

It is of no use to talk about the past...

But Miss Gu has spread the rumor recklessly

since she saw us at a cafe

That's her problem. She is a chatterbox.

That's why I named her Dr. Big bad mouth.

You're right. She is certainly Dr. Big bad mouth.

Am I Dr. Big bad mouth?

- Young-hee! - Yes.

- Can't you fall asleep? - No.

- And you too? - No.

I somehow felt sorry for telling on him.

Just apologize when you see him.

I should, although I'll be embarrassed.

I just don't understand woman's heart.

Why?

She is having fun in clubs with other guys

while saying she likes me.

I just don't understand her.

- I didn't do anything wrong. - You're bad.

What are they doing still up?

Somebody is coming.

Maybe grandma?

Why aren't you in bed?

What about you guys? Both of you.

We were talking because we couldn't fall asleep.

Young ones should fall asleep right away.

What's the matter with you?

- Maybe you have some worries. - What worries?

Be frank. I'm sure my guess is right.

Young-hee's problem should be the basketball player.

And Young-gu's problem is... similar to hers.

Young-hee, don't worry about him

I think the basketball player did it because he likes you.

Calling you bad names and throwing things at you...

they are expressions of affection.

From my experience, it's a kind of love-hate relationship...

Young-hee, isn't it right?

Oh, grandma...

For both man and woman, that's the way love grows.

He teases you to make an impression on you.

Then, you're going to get interested in him.

That is the key.

If you hesitate for nothing, you will lose the chance.

You gotta have a lot of guts to win your love.

And this is the best secret to love

Sweetie...

Grandma...

Why did you call me out to this cold place?

I want to apologize

It's okay. I really don't care.

But...

OK, then. I'll let you apologize sincerely.

But it was not my fault.

And then who on earth spread such a foolish rumor?

- Yu Ki-dong? - Right.

Whoever is responsible, nothing changes.

What?

Birds of feather flock together.

What?

Are you saying he and I are of the same kind?

Why not? Is what I said wrong?

Anyway, I don't care now. Apologize to me now.

I am sorry.

What kind of apology is that?

What should I say?

What Do you want me to say?

I don't like the tone of your voice.

That's why I'm asking you how I can apologize.

Suit yourself. When I speak with a woman like you,

my hand itches to slap you in the face.

- Same here. - OK, let's never talk about this again.

Don't be so sure of yourself.

What?

Oh My God! My bag!

What shall I do? It's an expensive handbag. Oh my!

- You can't toy with me. - When did I toy with you?

How can you go to a dance hall with another guy

after we set the time for our date?

It depends on circumstances.

What? What circumstances?

Oh, boy! Do you think I'm your possession?

- Even if you're not... - What?

Don't ever try to control me.

There's no rule that I must go out with you only.

I was a fool after all.

You're not a fool, but you've gone too far.

OK, I'll not see you again.

As you want.

- You're done? - Whatever.

Ok.

Then, give me back 3,000 won that you borrowed from me the other day.

Don't you think you're too much?

I don't think so.

We should clear up everything when we say goodbye.

Grandma!

Well, Young-gu's here!

- Give me 3,000 won. - 3,000 won!

What are you talking about?

- That's a fine - A fine?

I am ruined because of your advice last night.

Actually, 3,000 won is not enough.

I want to ask for compensation for my mental anguish.

Fine? Compensation? What's all this?

And you too?

Me too?

Young-hee also asked me for money.

She asked for 5,000 won, but I didn't have any money.

- It was for her handbag? - Yes.

I thought the secret of success in love is just the same as the past.

But things seem to have changed.

- You lost your bag? - Yes.

I'm done with my girlfriend, because I listened to grandma.

I will never go out with a woman again.

Brother, give me a cigarette.

When did you start smoking?

I'm just trying to lighten up my mood.

Here we are. Sir?

You're going to the central branch office in Dae-jeon with Mr. Song?

Yes, you may go with us.

Mr. Song said he'll take along a young staff.

- Dad, Mr. Song is calling for you. - Ok.

It's for the meeting.

Ok, you ask Mr. Kwon to Check it.

What do you think?

I'm thinking of taking Myoung-ok on the business trip.

Myoung-OK?

Just think about it.

But the business trip we are goinghave

to look into the possibility of an expansion of the central branch...

And the previous sales manager will join us in Cheon-An.

So, Mr. Gu should...

Oh, excuse me.

Yes, this is me. Yes.

I'm asking him now.

No problem. Of course.

Then, I can go with you?

Don't worry.

Mr. Gu will figure it out.

Who else can we trust, except for Mr. Gu?

Sorry.

Just let me know when you decide the dates. What?

Because I have to prepare things.

And please tell Mr. Gu that I look forward to his help.

OK, I got it.

Mr. Gu!

She said she looked forward to your help.

- I see. - Ok

My wife is so sensitive nowadays.

Actually, she talked about Myoung-ok last night.

I don't know how my wife heard about her.

- Mrs. Song did? - Yes.

So, I pretended to know nothing

and I mentioned something about you.

I want you to understand.

So, you mentioned me?

Yes, I said that she is an acquaintance of yours.

- Let's have lunch. - Yes.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

- One fried rice, please. - Yes.

- Did you finish your drink? - No.

- You have red pepper? - Here We go

- Mr. Gu! - How are you?

What brings you here?

What are you doing here?

Have a seat here.

- Mr. Gu! - Yes.

We know all about it.

Know about What?

Mrs. Song told me everything.

I can't believe you are doing this kind of thing.

What are you talking about?

Mr. Gu! How can you do that?

You have grown-up children at home...

What do you mean? I don't understand what you are saying.

You know very well the dancer at the eastern branch office.

Yes, she's just an acquaintance. That's all.

Honey! They say the dancer's name is Myoung-ok.

Isn't it the same name on the envelope that you got the other day?

Don't be silly! Why don't you stop it?

Mr. Gu! Why are you yelling at her?

Even the most sincere apology wouldn't be enough.

- Oh, dear. - Say something if you want.

Mrs. Song, There's been a misunderstanding.

- Oh, yeah? - Sure.

You mean my husband lied about it then?

- No. It's... - Why can't you say?

My acquaintance with her seems to have been greatly exaggerated.

- I heard for sure... - No way.

That she is your mistress.

That must be a joke.

What are you trying to say?

Did My husband tell a lie then?

I don't think Mr. Song told a lie...

But, I...

Dear, say something if you want.

I did believe you were a good and faithful man.

Honey, just take it easy.

There must be a good reason for this misunderstanding...

A reason? What could be that reason?

What's the reason?

Well, there's a reason that I can't tell.

What's wrong with you?

I'm not going home if you don't tell.

Why don't you bring the dancer home

and live with her?

Oh, please.

Mrs. Song, I'm so sorry to have caused this trouble.

Hey, wait for me

Wait for me.

Mom, Why are you crying?

I will never go home again.

What? Why?

Ask your father why.

Mom!

Dad!

What happened?

Mom went out crying

It's me who wants to cry really.

Where are you going?

- To meet Mr. Kwon at the cafeteria - To have something?

How can I eat in this situation?

Well, what's going on?

Now is the time you have to make a decision.

What Do you want me to do?

Since you got the poor Mr. Gu into trouble,

you should meet Mrs. Gu and tell her the truth.

All of this happened

because of your perverted relationship with Mr. Song.

Getting started again.

I will say It hundreds of times. Until you reconsider and Stop it.

Why should I Do that?

You raised hell in a peaceful family.

That's why I don't know what to do.

You're so naive.

Do you think Mrs. Song won't find out about you?

I bet you'll be in trouble before the end of the year.

What I mean is that it's wrong for you think that your way of life is right.

I didn't say I'm right.

I hate and feel sorry about myself at the same time, because...

I'm leading a secret life, deceiving people.

That's not true. You're kind of satisfied

with your comfortable life now.

I know you want to go with Mr. Song on the business trip to Dae-jeon.

I told Mr. Gu that's a serious matter.

Business trip is not like a pleasure trip.

And I told him to say no to Mr. Song directly.

You don't understand woman's heart.

Just be more sensible.

Do you think this kind of secret affair would last long?

I've already said I know.

You should break up with him for your own future.

- You always say the same thing. - Because I'm not a stranger.

We've grown up together.

I've always thought of you as my own sister.

But it's not easy for woman to break up

and turn around from her love just like that.

I also know that my kind of life now will bring unhappy ending in the future.

I know it is hard to end a relationship.

But you should consider the future.

Think over your life.

Having had plenty of vegetables and water,

I enjoy a simple and leisurely life.

Fill the glass!

- Mrs. Gu, have a drink. - Go ahead.

Only men enjoy themselves. It's not fair.

Of course not. You're right.

Husbands do everything their way.

Yes, that's true.

They bring home meager amount, but act like the king.

Basically that's because we women are too meek and mild.

They think that we're powerless to do anything against them.

We'll let them know what we're capable of.

If a man doesn't do his duty as a husband,

How can he ask his wife to do her duty?

- That's true. - He and I are separate beings.

Mrs. Song, it makes me angry to think of her.

That foxy girl Myeong-Ok.

I'd feel a whole lot better if I can peel her skin completely.

Right, if that would make you feel better.

- Hey, fill my glass! - Yes.

By the way, isn't there a male host here?

Oh my!

Let's raid Myoung-ok's place after we enjoy ourselves.

- Absolutely! - Would you go with me?

Yes, of course.

Your problem is common for all of us women.

Let's go!

Like a reed shaken by the wind

Man's mind is very fickle.

Like a reed

We're here! Yes, this is the very house!

Mrs. Song, isn't it too late now?

What? What are you talking about?

We're here to give her hell.

That's right!

Hello! Excuse me, hello!

I'm not sure if Mr. Gu is renting this house or has bought it.

Anyway, it should be his.

You're right.

This is also your house then. So, you don't need to say 'Excuse me'.

You don't say that especially at the gate.

I don't care anymore!

That's right! Que sera sera

Come on out.

- I'll give you a back rub. - That's ok.

How embarassing! Please, stop it.

- Is anybody there? - Yes!

- Can I Help you? - You don't need to know.

- Is Myoung-Ok here? - Yes, but...

But what? Answer quickly and don't mumble.

Wait a minute, please.

What's going on? Who is she?

What can I do for you?

Are you Myoung-OK?

Who are you?

Me? I am Mr Gu's wife.

I'm Mr. Song's.

Oh God! Wait for a moment, please!

Where are you going?

Follow her quickly before she runs away.

- Go ahead! - Yes, you're right!

Oh no! I didn't see anything. Sorry!

Why are you bowing in closing the door?

- Step aside! I'll do it. - Please, don't do that.

Oh My God!

- Honey! - Oh no! You are...

- What are you doing here? - I'm ashamed.

Where is she going? You bitch...

You damned bitch took my husband away!

This cursed slut! You bitch!

Come here! Let's fight to the end! You crazy bitch!

- You dare to take my husband away! - What are you doing?

Let's talk.

Talk? How can I talk with you now?

- Damned bitch! Bitch! - Please stop it! Let's talk!

Damn! I'm ruined. Que sera sera.

She didn't come home last night...

Are they still in bed?

Everything is a mess.

Young-hee! Aren't you up yet?

What are you doing now?

It's Sunday. It's time to sleep in and relax.

Everybody should get up early in the morning

whether it's Sunday or holiday.

Leave me alone!

Young-hee!

Your mother didn't come home last night.

Wash yourself and have breakfast.

Breakfast is already prepared.

Does she really intend not to come back?

She is pretending to be upset for a couple of days

Young-hee!

- Young-hee! - Yes.

- I'm sorry, but can you do me a favor? - What?

Take this file to Oh-chul's place.

- Kwon Oh-chul? - Yes.

No! I hate the very sight of him.

Why?

I Just don't like him.

Well, I'll do it.

There is nothing more dreadful than misunderstanding.

OK, you take it to him.

This is a plan for the business trip.

Tell him that he should come up with a budget today.

Yes.

I Intended to do it myself, but I have to go out to find your mother.

There's been a misunderstanding...

And I can't leave her alone.

You are right, dad!

- Thanks for your help. - Don't worry.

Young-gu, dad is really a good person, isn't he?

You really don't want to go to Oh-chul's house?

Why should I wanna go there?

Don't say that. I will let you go, OK?

Never.

She's here. She's here. That woman Myoung-ok is here.

Young-gu, she's here! She's here!

I got an earful from Oh-chul too.

Let's go to the place where your wife is staying at.

No, thank you.

She can spend a few more days at her sister's house.

Things have cleared up,

but she seems too embarrassed to return home now.

I don't have anything to say.

I deeply apologize for having caused you so much trouble.

It's okay.

Grandma!

I really don't know how to express my apology.

You don't need to take it so seriously.

But I'm sorry for having disturbed your peaceful family,

And I'd like to apologize to your son and daughter.

Let's go.

- It's Okay. It's all over now. - But...

By the way, what are you going to do from now on?

I decided to return to my hometown.

- Your hometown? - Yes.

I'll run a small shop there and make a living on my own.

Sounds good.

Although you have a long, long way to go,

A door of happiness will open to you.

That will definitely happen if your resolve is firm.

- Mr. Kwon! - Yes.

What's the matter?

Someone came to see me?

- A woman called Miss Gu. - I wonder why she's here.

- Should I let her Come up? - No, Wait for a second.

Why?

I feel uncomfortable. I don't get along with her.

Anyway, can you ask why she came here?

Sure.

Can I ask Why you are here?

Can't I go up to see him?

He said he doesn't feel comfortable with you.

You sure you wanna go up there?

- Anyway, I must go up there. - Do As you please.

But do at your own risk of being slapped in the face.

What did she say? That big bad mouth!

Oh no!

What brings you here?

- To run an errand for my father. - What is it?

He wants you to prepare a budget today.

For the business trip! Yes, I see.

Thank you.

I just take it to the company tomorrow?

Yes.

Mr. Kwon!

I am to be blamed for everything that happened.

Please, forgive me!

That wasn't really your fault.

No, I...

We fight because we are alike.

These kinds of things happen.

- Didn't my sister visit your house? - Yes, she did.

I just found out today that you tried to help my family.

It was nothing.

In fact, I am partly responsible what happened.

I gotta go.

Young-hee!

It's the first time we're dining out by ourselves

in 25 years since we got married.

Right!

It must have been difficult to run our household on such a small income...

No, it wasn't that difficult.

By the way, we have old parents and grown-up children,

How foolish I have been!

That's okay. We are husband and wife.

Dear, a family is like fellow passengers in a taxi.

They have different characters.

Husband is the driver and wife is the conductor.

The driver should drive safely.

I ought to drive without accidents

and you make the reckless passengers take a seat.

That way we can go our own way safely.

If the driver and the conductor are on bad terms,

their passengers will feel nervous.

That's why we also should always be united in spirit.

You're right

It's hard and difficult for the couple.

But they must understand and help each other.

That is especially true for people who have no connection and money like us.

I see.

- Conductor, have a drink. - Oh dear...

This is happiness. Why are you talking about such difficult philosophy?

To live, one should have a philosophy of his own,

even if it is shallow.

- Dear! -Yes.

Let's go for a drive for the first time in 25 years!

No way. We are not fit for such a thing!

Don't be silly.

By the way, let's talk about Young-hee.

Though she has reached a marrying age, nothing is prepared.

Don't worry.

There's a song that goes like this... Que sera sera

Honey, let's go.

Let's have a drive like a newly wedded couple.

- What? - Wait a second.

Hey! How much?

- Honey! - Yes.

- Is the seat comfortable? - Oh dear, you're like a child...

Where Do you want me to go?

Just go around and Step on It

Dear, let's go home straight.

- Let's go! Step on it. - Yes, let's go.
