All language subtitles for 9 Years of You (1)

Every New Year,
we always set goals for ourselves

that this year
will be better than the last.

This year, I feel the same way.

But honestly,

As long as I have you, Dao,

any year would be a good one.

Whether it's the year
we were just friends,

or the year we became more than that.

It's been eight years,

since we realized our feelings.

And there's going to be a ninth,

tenth,

and many more to come.

Better together, right?

Sure, we could live on our own,

but being together is better.

2016

- What's up?
- What's up, man?

Yeah, I'm here.

Right in front of the entrance.

Hey, how have you been?

And those two?

They're on their way.

Hold on, Dao.

- Let's stop being friends.
- Why?

Did I do something to upset you?

I'm not upset.

But I love you.

Will you be my girlfriend?

What are you doing?

I'm sorry, Pop.

But I've had feelings for Dao
for a long time.

No, you can't.

Dao and I
have been dating for three months.

Today is our anniversary.

You can't do this.

Right, Dao?

Dao,

what do you say?

Well, Pop,

Ran and I
have been friends for a long time.

But…

I just realized my own feelings too.

Let's just be brother and sister, okay?

Let's go, Dao.

Hey Ran, I reserved this table. Come on.

Pop totally bought it.
That was brilliant, Ran.

- I'll go grab something to drink.
- I'll go with you.

Damn, Ran,
you really came up with that idea.

Each plan you've used
to help Dao break up has been evil.

But this time? This one's the worst.

- Whoa.
- Was that a compliment?

- Yeah.
- So, what now?

Have you learned your lesson?

Didn't you say you liked freshmen
because they're bright and sweet?

- In the end, I needed to step in.
- What?

Pop's way too nerdy though.

Who celebrates an anniversary every week?

Yeah.

Look at me and Ning.

We never had to celebrate anything and
we're still crazy in love. Right, Babe?

Still, celebrating sometimes
would be nice, Babe.

Oh?

I LOVE YOU GUYS

Hey guys, let's take a picture.

- Yeah!
- Come on.

Dao,

I'm sorry.

I don't know what I did to upset you.

But I love you.

Does this even make sense?

Ran, help me out here.

Wait, I can't think fast enough.

Here he comes.

Do something.

Stop!

- Just make up.
- Just make up.

- Just make up.
- Everyone, stop.

Pop, listen to me.

I love Ran.

I LOVE YOU GUYS

What was that?

It was…

the plan to fool Pop.

Really?

Yeah.

It gave me chills.

Yeah, it gave me chills.

Then why did you repeat after me?

Because… I felt the same way.

I LOVE YOU

Hello?
Alright, I'll treat you to some drinks.

Hello?

Bank?

Ran.

If I were the page admin,
I wouldn't delete it.

That photo of you and Dao
got so many likes.

I even took a screenshot.

Wow, you're a screenshot master.

Hey Zen, you better watch yourself.

If you mess up,

Ning's gonna expose you.

If you didn't do anything wrong,
you've got nothing to be afraid of.

- Right, Babe?
- Right.

Here it comes!

- Hot panang curry pizza from Nubdao!
- Wow, it's here!

Your kitchen always makes cooking fun.

Oh, by the way,
the second burner on the stove is broken.

Don't forget to get someone
to fix it for your mom.

Is this your house or mine?

Come on,
a friend's house is like your own.

Right, Mom?

That's right. You know,

Dao even made the pizza
half-spicy and half-not,

so everyone could enjoy it.
And you're still complaining?

Should we just kick you out?

Good idea, Mom.

So, who's your real child again?

Let's eat.

- It's good, right?
- It's hot.

- Say it nicely.
- It's delicious.

There's more food in the kitchen.
I'll go get it for you.

- I'll go help.
- Let's go.

- I'll come too, Mom.
- Alright.

Dao,

our photo has become
a digital footprint now.

No one's willing to delete it.

Well…

I guess we just have to let it be.

Why?

Are you embarrassed about kissing me?

I'm not embarrassed.

But you're a girl.

It's not a good look for you.

Overthinking makes you age faster.

Sometimes
we just have to go with the flow.

And when you pulled me in to kiss,

what "flow" was that?

It was…

the survival flow.

You're always running away from problems.

This is the last time

I'm helping you.

You'd better mean it this time.

You said the same thing
back in Grade 10 when I fought with Petch.

I plan to rent the building next to
your publishing house for my office.

The first floor will be for workstations.

The second floor
for a meeting room and studio.

I like that building too.

And the top floor will be a place to stay.

Which will be my bedroom, Dad.

We won't need a security guard.

And this is the company logo.

Nice, right?

Better Together.

- That's a great name.
- It's Dao's idea, right?

Dao again?

This one was my idea, Mom.

Being together is better.

And we've already
divided up responsibilities.

Ning will take care of the accounting,

I'll handle marketing,

Ran and Kae
will take care of the creative,

and Nubdao's in charge of art.

You can go take care of work first, Dad.

It's fine. So when will you start?

Once we get back from the club trip,
I'll register the company.

Then we can start taking jobs.

As for the money…

We'll need to ask the investor

how much he's willing to
lend a couple of fresh grads like us.

How much again?

Two million
for the registered capital, Dad.

And five million for working capital.

Is that okay?

We'll talk after the trip, okay?

- Sure.
- Yes, Sir.

Then I'll get back to work.

- Thank you.
- Alright.

- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.

It really pays to have rich friends.

No wonder you're the son of

the owner of
the country's hottest youth magazine.

We're going to have our own company!

Let's put our stuff in the tents.

If you haven't paid for the trip,
please pay Ning.

- Or you'll only get water tonight.
- Thank you.

Now go change. We're biking in the park.

Hurry and put your things away.
I want to see the sunset.

Okay, then you should…

- Change into something cute.
- Okay.

See you there.

What?

Why did he tell you
to change into something cute?

So I can take pretty pictures?

I don't think that's the only reason.

The other day, Bow saw Zen buying a ring.

He's totally going to propose.

What? Really?

He's going to propose here?

No way!
I didn't bring anything nice to wear.

Is that your biking outfit, Ning?

Didn't you say you didn't bring clothes?

- Where's Zen?
- Dao.

Ja? What are you doing here?

Hey, hey, hey!

I saw the photo of you and Ran.

You two were secretly dating
the whole time, weren't you?

- Calm down, Ja. It's--
- Where's Ran?!

Ran! Ran!

Nature was peaceful…
until the natural disaster showed up.

- Ja's here. What do we do?
- Why did he come?

He's looking for you.

He saw the photo of us kissing.

Now he thinks I was dating you
when I was still dating him.

I knew it.

- Help me first.
- Dao, you know…

I joined the cycling club

because it's something I can do alone.

I know.

But biking alone is lonely.

It's more fun together.

Better Together, right?

Dao,

stop running from your problems.

If you don't face them,

how will you solve them?

Stop trying to please everyone
because you're scared they won't love you.

That's harsh.

Even when my dad was alive,
he never scolded me this much.

Just tell him the truth.

That we're just friends.

That you broke up with him

because he's not your type.

He seemed pitiful.

And how do you know?

Maybe I've changed my type.

You haven't.

You like perfect guys.

Like your dad.

A leader. A problem solver.

Family-oriented.

And to this day, you're still
searching for someone like him.

But maybe that's too much to ask.

There are over
seven billion people in the world.

My dad can't be the only one like that.

Dan?

Pop?

They're all here?

When did you guys join the cycling club?

Let's just call it
Dao's Ex-Boyfriend Club.

So you really were dating Ran
behind our backs, huh?

No, it's not like that.

Please, everyone, calm down.

Ran and I are just friends.

You two are always glued together.

Every time you broke up with any of us,

Ran was right there.

Well, we're close.
We've been friends since grade seven.

Friends don't kiss each other.

He doesn't believe me.

Then what do you want to do?

If I'm hurt, you should be too.

- Everyone!
- What's up?

Ran, Pop's friends are in the rugby club.

Let's go!

Dao, get out of the way.

Ran!

Go!

Hey, stop!

Ran!

Calm down, Bro.

Okay, okay! I give up!

- You alright?
- Nope.

Stop complaining. Here's another spot.

On the back?

I can't reach.

Take your shirt off.

Now?

Not like I've never seen it.

You look more built.

That makes sense.
You're the university's boxing champ.

I thought it was seven against one.
Turns out it was one against seven.

Your exes though…

What about them?

Don't make me say it.

You look like
you've never liked any of my exes.

Why?

If they were any good,
would you have broken up with them?

Dao, stop!

It hurts, Dao!

Who's that?

Dao.

Dao.

It's that girl Kae again.
She always comments first on your IG.

- How do you know that?
- Because I'm always second.

"Have you eaten?
What are you doing? Is the view nice?"

Geez, if you're going to DM like that,
just call him already.

Why are you frustrated?

I'm just annoyed.

Kae's really going for it, huh?

Let me reply for you.

Hey, stop it. Dao!

- Dao!
- Don't!

You're too soft. You've only had
two relationships your whole life.

- Let big Sis handle this.
- Dao, don't!

Dao!

Dao!

I sent it.

"Can I really go?"

You invited her here?

I'm just testing her.

If she agrees right away like that,
that's a red flag.

It's very late. There's no way
you can get a ride back to Bangkok.

If there's no ride, I'll bike back.

I don't want to see your face.

You bastard. You jerk.

You two-timer.

Have you been cheating this whole time?

- Can we calm down and talk first?
- What's going on?

Zen cheated on me.

He's been seeing Pam
from the Social Sciences faculty.

And the ring you thought he bought for me,

it wasn't for me.

It was for Pam.

Is that true, Zen?

Why are you even asking him?

The proof's all there.

He got a LINE message while we were
drinking and he slammed his phone down.

I looked at his phone and saw that

he has another
Facebook account for flirting.

And he's not just talking to one girl.

He's got five.

And why aren't you wearing a shirt?

- Well, um…
- Well…

- I had to get him to take it off…
- Dao's exes all teamed up…

- He had a wound on his back…
- I had to…

- Right, the wound. I couldn't reach.
- Exactly, he couldn't…

- apply the ointment himself so…
- Forget it.

Zen, if that's not true, explain yourself.

But I'm most serious about you.

I've only dated Ning for two years.

I just wanted to try seeing other people.

Just to know for sure

if Ning was the right one for me.

What did I do wrong?

Selfish jerk.

I've been with him since he was ugly.

I even helped him fix his face.

And this is how he repays me?

Asshole.

I only messed up once.

Why can't anyone understand me?

Ran, you get me, right?

I love Ning, man.

Who did that?

Love? You call this love?

You know Jeng tried to hit on me.
I ignored him!

So it's true! Jeng was hitting on you!

- So what?
- You said it was nothing back then.

It was nothing.

I was just trying to say
I had other options, but I chose you.

Because I saw you as a friend.

Then if I'm your friend,
you should forgive me.

Forgive you?

I don't even want to look at you.

Fine.

Then don't look.

From now on,

we're not friends anymore.

Zen.

You said it yourself.

Fine. If being friends
with you means this,

I'd rather be friends with a dog.

Hey, calm down you two.

You've been friends for four years.

Don't throw that away.

It's too late, Ran.

It's already over.

Let this be a lesson to everyone.

Never date your friend.

SAMAI

Dao, you're home.

Hey, Ning left the group chat.

- Is she still doing the company with us?
- Give her time.

She'll separate business
from personal eventually.

Not everyone
can stay friends after a breakup.

Dao.

You've been here for a while.
Why haven't you gone in?

Evening customers are coming soon.

Okay.

Hello, Mom. I'll help out too.

Come on, hurry inside.

Hello, I'm Chef Nubduen.

At our restaurant,
we use local ingredients

from every region of the country.

We present our dishes
in the style of traditional Thai cuisine.

Today, we'll be serving
a total of ten dishes.

Starting with the first, flower miang.

The second dish is
rice crackers with savory topping.

The third is a climbing wattle
and bitter melon salad with shrimp.

And the fourth dish is spicy boat-style
chili dip, served with garden vegetables.

This one must be eaten
with deep-fried sun-dried snakehead fish.

Our flower miang uses
authentic Thai flowers.

The main flower here is lotus.

The sauce is our special recipe,

sautéed with coconut cream
and shrimp paste for aroma,

then finished with palm sugar.

Here's your iced bael fruit juice.

- Wow, thank you.
- Are you tired?

I feel better
after your bael juice, Grandma.

With that sweet mouth of yours,
do you want to be my grandson-in-law?

So Dao won't have to waste time
finding a boyfriend.

She'd only end up being a burden to Ran.

And now you're starting
a company together?

What can someone like Dao
possibly contribute?

Graduated in architecture
but still can't build a house.

Hey.

What kind of mother are you?

You're always discouraging your child.

She's told you for four years already.
She studied product design,

not architecture.

Everyone,

our tables are fully booked
until the end of the month.

- That's amazing!
- Well done, Sweetie.

See?

I told you, if we post videos
and pictures on the page daily,

it helps attract customers.

- You were right, Husband.
- Of course.

Your husband is great,
but my daughter is the best!

Nubduen, my brilliant girl.

Well done.

You're amazing, Sweetheart.

See that, Dao?

If you'd studied something useful
for the restaurant, you'd be fine by now.

Nubduen alone is more than enough.

Even if I tried, I'd never be as good.

Nothing I say ever gets through.

You really are amazing, my girl.

Actually, Dao always listens to you.

We're starting a production house.

And Dao's planning to launch
a YouTube channel for Duen.

I really believe it will do well.

Alright. I'll be watching.

Calm down. If you're upset, go draw.

It will help you feel better.

- Where are you?
- Just about to get in the car.

Are you okay?

Thanks.

- Let me see.
- Hey!

Is your cartoon character obese
or something, Dao?

Seriously. Short legs,
chubby body, giant head.

So ugly. Who would even want to read this?

- Exactly.
- Well, it's for people to read.

Not dogs.

Watch that mouth. I won't give it back.

- Let go. Don't you dare!
- Rip it up. Rip it.

- Rip it!
- Let go!

What are you doing?!

Ran!

Dao, want to draw some bruised-up faces?

I'll find you some models.

- You're not drawing anymore?
- No. What's the point if no one likes it?

That's because they have no taste.

My dad used to say,

if you do what you love,

you'll do it well.

That's probably not me.

Let me see.

NUBDAO

It's kind of cute.

Ten years from now,
it could be as famous as One Piece.

One Piece, really?

But if you want it more famous,

you'll have to draw me.

You?

As a cartoon?

Why not?

Am I not cute enough?

- You're back, Son?
- Yes, Mom. I brought you something.

Here's wild honey for Dad's coffee.

And this is for you,
fat-free Chinese sausage.

Thank you, Ran.

Ran, I don't know what happened. Your dad
looked stressed these past few days.

When I ask, he says he's fine.

Could you talk to him for me?

I will.

Hello.

What's up, Son?

How was your trip?

It was a little chaotic, Dad.

Ning and Zen broke up.

But I think they'll patch things up.

And you? Are you okay?

Mom says you've been stressed.

It's nothing.

When we face problems,

we just push through. Sometimes
we can solve them, sometimes not.

That's life.

You? Having problems you can't solve?

Don't worry about me.

Let's talk about you.

You're starting a company with friends.

You all need to communicate.

Don't carry it alone.

Don't worry, Dad.

We're sharing the load.

Alright then.

I'll get back to work.

Okay.

Ran.

Yes?

We haven't hugged today.

Are you sure you're okay?

Ran!

Ran, what do I do?

The office just called looking for Dad.

But he left the house last night
and didn't come back.

I tried calling, but his phone was off.

I don't know if he's okay.

I just put a down payment on a house.
What now?

I can't reach Sak.

Mon. Mon's here!

Mon!

Mon, have you been able to reach Sak?

I haven't been paid in three months.

If I don't get paid this month,

I won't be able to pay my mortgage.

- He hasn't paid salaries in three months?
- That's right.

He promised to pay everyone today.

Now he's vanished.

Nui, what's going on?

You know, don't you?

You're the editor. You have to know.

You like perfect guys. Like your dad.

A leader. A problem solver.

Family-oriented.

And to this day, you're still
searching for someone like him.

But maybe that's too much to ask.

MON AND RAN

I think

this is Dad's letter.

Ran, read it to me, please.

"To my dearest Mon and Ran,

if you're reading this,

I'm probably no longer in Thailand.

As you both know,

the publishing industry's been down."

For the past two years,
our magazine has been losing money,

but I kept telling everyone
it would get better.

In the end, it didn't.

After appearing in court
and negotiating for months,

I am now officially bankrupt.

I can't face anyone,

not your mom,

not you,

not Nui,

and not the people at the office.

I'm sorry for leaving this problem
for you and Mom to deal with.

I'm sorry I disappointed you, Ran.

"Please take care of Mom for me,

and take good care of yourself too.

I believe you'll handle this
better than I did.

I love your Mom

and I love you, always.

Dad."

So he's nearly 300 million in debt?

Damn.

Is Mom asleep already?

- Come eat first. You need the energy.
- Wow, the food's here.

Thanks.

I'm grabbing some while it's still hot.

- You're not serving your friends first?
- You've got hands, don't you?

I'll take a big one.

This is really good.

It's pretty good.

Try some. It's delicious.

Thanks.

So you're really moving out tomorrow?

Yeah, waiting for the bank
to sort the assets

so we'll know how much debt is left.

I just graduated,
and instead of starting at zero,

I'm starting in the red.

Hey Ran,

I'm just waiting for my crypto portfolio
to go to the moon.

I can even give you 500 million.

- What?
- You lost money reselling Furbies.

Then came those spirit dolls
you rented to pray to

and said they'd help you graduate.
Now we've all graduated,

except you.

I go by this motto.

- What is it?
- To graduate with med students.

- Whoa.
- Nonsense.

So where are you moving to?

My mom's relatives have a rental place.

They said they'd give us a discount.

I'll arrange the moving truck
for you tomorrow.

And don't worry about the company.

We'll all go our separate ways for now,
gain experience,

and revisit the idea when ready.

That works.

I'm not ready to work with
certain people here anyway.

Oh no, here we go.

- She means you.
- Obviously it's you, Zen.

- It's you.
- You're the worst offender.

And still clueless.

Thanks, guys.

No matter what, we're still

Better Together, right?

Alright. Come on.

Come on, just a bit more.

Come on.

Alright.

Great job. Can you swim back?

Yes? Then go!

Again!

Dodge it, dodge! Throw a punch!

Dodge!

Everyone's gone.

You're not heading back?

I still want to stay.

I'm not in your way, am I?

The house is pretty empty now.

I should've had the bank staff
take you with them.

No way.

They'd auction me off,
and people would fight over me.

Are you okay?

I have to be okay.

I've never seen my mom cry like that.

Are you mad at your dad?

It's more that I don't understand.

The last time we talked,

he told me that
if I ever started a company,

not to carry the burden alone.

So this is what he meant.

He probably did his best.

Best how?

The company's been
in trouble for over a year,

and he kept it all to himself.

He never told anyone.

Did he think he was Superman or something?

He was your Superman, wasn't he?

He probably didn't want you
to see him as a failure.

But running away like this?

Is that something to be proud of?

Ran.

Ran.

Remember what I once told you,

that we have to face problems.

If we don't confront them,
how can we solve them?

He's the one who taught me that.

He said don't run from problems,

from the truth.

And now he's the one who ran.

He left me and Mom
with nearly 300 million in debt.

Is that my Superman?

It's okay, Ran.

I'm still here with you.

Dao, you're home.

Five more minutes.

It hasn't even been five minutes.

Fine, I'm going.

Let's go.

- Make a suspicious face.
- Why do girls always overthink everything?

You were peeking, weren't you?

No, come on, little one.

If you'd just been honest,

this could have ended well.
