All clear!

(A Hundred Memories)

Wait. He's Giant.

Hey!

What are you? Are you some kind of pervert?

Unbelievable.

We're late. Hurry up!

I appreciate all your work.

Your moms feed you nice, warm meals,

and all you do is spend your days picking fights?

- Sir, that's not what happened. - Quiet.

What do you think this is, your school?

Should we start keeping an attendance sheet for you here?

You rascals...

And who's this one now?

What's your deal? A new face?

- Come on. - Wait! Stop!

Where do you think you're putting your hands?

The police are supposed to protect and serve.

Are you thugs?

What do you think you're doing right now?

Why are you hitting someone's kid in the head?

- Is this how you treat the victim? - Well...

Actually, he's not the victim.

And besides, this is a case of mutual assault. Okay?

Even if it was mutual!

Someone had to have thrown the first punch!

My son doesn't have the guts to do something like that.

So it must've been these punks, right?

You don't even check for that, and you just go and act like this?

Do you think this is what I pay my taxes for?

Okay, sir. I understand. But first, please calm down.

I'm not your father!

Get your chief out here! Do you know who I am?

I'm Han Gi Bok!

Okay?

The chief and I exchanged business cards over breakfast.

We've even been to the sauna together. Okay?

That's the kind of man I am.

Do you understand?

All right.

Where's the chief's office? Is this it?

- Chief Jang! Chief Jang Joong Pil! - Sir, please!

Incredible.

Hey. Koh Yeong Rye.

Hey.

- Yes? - Snap out of it, will you?

And wipe your drool.

(Let's keep the environment clean and welcome a new Incheon.)

(Incheon Metropolitan City Hall)

That was so good.

If we had this much fun just watching it,

can you imagine how much fun the actors must have had?

I wonder why he did that.

What kind of situation could it have been?

You get to live so many different lives.

One day, a rich man's daughter.

And the next, a girl from a small town.

That must be so thrilling, don't you think?

He looked like he got hurt. I wonder if he's okay.

Maybe I should've gone after him.

Are you not listening to me?

Am I talking to myself here? Koh Yeong Rye!

- What? - What?

What is it?

I asked you a question, so it'd be nice if you answered.

No, it's just...

That guy from before.

What guy?

The lead actor?

No, not from the movie.

I mean that student by the entrance to the theater.

I wonder why he did that.

A student? Give me a break.

He was obviously a creep.

You get people like that at theaters sometimes.

The uniform could have just been a disguise.

He didn't seem like that to me.

I want to see that movie again.

Let's watch it again!

(Episode 2: Whatever We Become, Let’s Meet Again)

(Cheongah Bus)

The line goes like this.

"First, you kill them."

(Giant, 10th Anniversary, May 21, 1982)

"Swallowing my pride..."

A pervert?

Come on. That's ridiculous.

"Every time I've asked to sleep with you..."

Oh, my.

"Sleep with you?" I can't take it!

"You've always turned me down cold."

"I'm only human."

"So I'm going to do the same to you."

- Oh, my. - Goodness gracious.

My heart's pounding out of my chest. I'm going to lose my mind.

- That Aema is a real modern woman. - Hey. Three Corns.

Ok Hui. It's your turn to scrub today.

Me?

Yes.

Okay. I got it.

Now, where were we?

Right.

"I'll do the same to you..."

Excuse me.

Hey, you guys.

Do you know any place with Giant in the name?

Like Giant Arcade or something,

or Giant Billiards?

Have you seen a place like that around?

"Giant?"

Why're you looking for that place? Is it any good?

I've never heard of it.

No, that's not it...

What are you looking for, then?

We can't help you if you're not specific.

No, it's fine. Never mind.

- Come on. Just tell us. - Spit it out.

Jae Pil.

Sae Ri? What is it? You can't fall asleep?

Jae Pil.

Jae Pil. What happened to your face?

Did Dad hit you again?

No.

I just ran into a telephone pole.

That was pretty stupid of me, right?

Come here.

Gosh. The bed is too high for you.

- You can't sleep? - No.

What song will make my Princess Sae Ri fall asleep?

Magic Princess Sae Ri has come to see you

All the way from the moon to the Earth below

- Jae Pil? - Yes?

What's love?

Mom says she's starved for love.

I wonder.

I've never been in love, so I wouldn't know.

But I bet it's something really wonderful.

If it's so wonderful, why haven't you ever been in love?

Because it's so wonderful.

I'm saving it for later, so I can cherish it.

- Now, go to sleep. - Okay.

What do you think you're doing?

Why are you hugging my leg for dear life?

Were you dreaming?

- What were you dreaming about? - I wasn't.

No! I wasn't dreaming at all.

I wasn't.

Gosh. It's already a beautiful morning!

No!

Gosh. Hae Ja!

- Darn it. - Hae Ja. Are you okay?

- Did you hurt your bottom? - Hold on.

Koh Yeong Rye. What was that? Did you just push me?

No, I didn't mean to push you.

That towel is the one we use to wipe our feet.

What I'm trying to say is...

I'm sorry, Hae Ja.

The girls in this room are getting stranger by the day.

This place is a total chaostrophe!

Hae Ja. The word is catastrophe, not chaostrophe.

Are you okay? Stop it, you!

(Giant, 10th Anniversary, May 21, 1982)

Hey.

Hey.

You.

This Giant thing. What is this?

You're hiding something, aren't you?

Hiding? What would I hide?

Well...

My gut says it's a guy.

A guy? What are you talking about?

Yes. It's written all over your face.

Hey. Who is it?

Spit it out, now.

Who is Giant?

I'm telling you it's not like that.

Hey.

Are you really going to start keeping secrets from me?

Who is he?

- Who is he? - I don't know.

He's just some guy I don't know.

"Some guy you don't know?"

Gosh.

Hey! Who is this guy that you don't know?

Hey!

- Jae Pil. Did you hear? - Come over here.

They said Deok Gu and the guys got called to the dean's office.

And there's going to be a disciplinary hearing soon, too.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you going to say?

March in and demand to know why we're not being punished too?

Deok Gu is competing in the High School Sports Festival.

If he's disciplined, he might not get to compete.

It's no use, you idiot.

Do you think if you go in and say, "Punish me too, please,"

that they'll say, "You want to be punished too?"

"Okay." You think that's what they'll say?

You'll just rub salt in the wound. Just stay put.

Having a dad with connections isn't always a good thing.

I can't believe how guilty I feel.

Excuse me.

I'm looking for a student, Jang Deok Gu.

Do you happen to know where I can find him?

Are you Deok Gu's grandfather, by any chance?

No, I'm his father.

I see.

I hate to bother you, but could you please give this to him?

I have to get to work.

I think he's embarrassed I packed it so he always leaves it behind.

Tell him I made it extra special today.

Please tell him he has to eat it, okay?

- Okay. - Thanks.

Okay, then.

(Student Guidance Office)

Are you here to watch?

To watch me pathetically sit here and write this reflection paper?

Your father asked me to give you this.

Did you...

tell my dad I was here?

If you're done, why don't you leave?

Your dad said to eat it all.

He said today's lunch is special.

(1982 Outstanding CEO Award Interview)

(Dongin Department Store, CEO Han Gi Bok)

(Dongin Department Store)

(Business Magazine)

How many reporters did you say there were in total?

Yes, sir. Hanseok Daily,

Daesung Daily, Daily Seoul, and Business Magazine.

Including the camera crew, there are eight in total, sir.

Dongin Department Store will be expanding its locations...

and focusing on a more high-end store experience...

No!

I'm the one doing the Outstanding CEO Interview.

It should be about me. I'm the main event here!

Then again...

The department store is mine, so I guess it is about me, right?

What are you doing here?

You're supposed to be in school.

Call off the suspension.

What?

Deok Gu and the others.

If Deok Gu gets suspended, he can't compete in the nationals.

I'll settle my score with him on my own.

- So... - Enough.

You can't go through life making exceptions for everyone.

How are you going to survive in this harsh world?

Stop talking nonsense and get out of my way.

I have an interview to get to.

This is a complaint for the Board of Education. How convenient.

Maybe I should leak it to the reporters first.

"The CEO of a deptartment store, voted Outstanding CEO..."

"gets his own son off the hook in an assault case..."

"while suspending the other kids..."

"abusing his power."

I bet reporters will flock to that like moths to a flame.

You little punk...

Are you threatening your own father?

Yes, I am.

I know you well enough to know that simply asking won't work.

So what else could I do?

Should I go in?

Should I open the door?

Fine.

The suspension.

I'll make it go away.

But...

I have a condition of my own.

If I'm going to be blackmailed by my own son,

I need to get something out of this, too.

Get tutored.

At this rate,

you'll never get into a top university.

Deal.

Then let me go boxing. Just three times a week.

You've got a lot of nerve.

- Twice. - Three.

I can't go any lower. Anything less isn't a real workout.

You punk. Seriously.

Fine. But take your tutor seriously and get your grades up.

No slacking off. You hear me?

Deal.

Don't go back on your word.

(Dongin Department Store)

Who does that kid take after to be so...

darn bold?

What? What is it?

Do you have something to say?

No, sir.

Giant.

Giant.

Driver! Watch where you're going!

I almost fell over!

- I'm sorry. A car cut me off. - Be careful, please.

I found it! Giant!

Wait.

Are you hurt?

I'm so sorry.

(Giant)

Koh Yeong Rye. Where are you going?

- Hey. Aren't you going to eat? - No, I'm not eating!

Hey. Where are you off to?

Enjoy your meal!

You too. Dig in.

Where did Yeong Rye go? How come you're alone?

I don't know. She said she wasn't hungry.

She rushed off somewhere.

What's up with that glutton?

That girl would never skip a meal unless she was carsick.

Gosh. Even if she's exhausted, she'll never miss a meal.

Pigs must be flying.

What is with me these days, seriously?

I mean, their senior is sitting right here.

And not one of them thinks to get me some water.

Back in my day, we really hustled. Right?

Hey! Are you all deaf?

She just said she's thirsty!

I'll run and get it for you.

No, it's fine.

I'll do it myself.

Here you are, my senior.

Driver Kim.

Where?

Ms. Kim. Did you get a perm?

It looks great.

Enjoy your meal.

There's Ms. Choi and Ho Suk...

Ho Suk. You're looking prettier than ever.

Did you get a boyfriend or something?

Come on now.

Gosh. There's nothing like that at all.

I bet there's a whole lot more to the story.

Something's different about her, but what?

Driver Kim.

There's a seat over here.

Ms. Kwon. It's been a while. Did you save this seat for me?

- Yes, sir. - Thank you.

Is she a new hire?

Yes, she is.

Please wait just a moment. I'll go get you some water.

I appreciate it, Ms. Kwon. Thank you.

Ok Hui. Go on and eat. Sit down.

But Ok Hui, you already had a perm, didn't you?

That's right. My curls are just...

- Oh, my! - That's cold!

Oh, my gosh. I'm sorry!

I'm really not so clumsy.

It's okay. Oh, that's cold.

Gosh. I'm so sorry, Driver Kim.

I drink my water warm, but she brought me cold water.

His clothes are soaked. What a mess.

It's all right, Ms. Kwon. It's okay.

(Giant Night Club)

(Giant, 10th Anniversary, May 21, 1982)

He didn't seem like the type to hang out here.

(Giant)

- Come in, please. - Okay.

(Giant Night Club)

It's a raid! The cops are here!

You. Hurry and run that way.

And you! Run this way!

It's not me!

- I'm not underage! - Get over here. Come on.

Go get them!

(Giant Night Club)

Why did you run away?

Stand up properly.

So, if you had your ID on you, why did you run away?

Well, it's just...

I was just so startled.

When you started chasing me, I ran without thinking.

Gosh. Some people...

Here you go.

Thank you.

Hey! Can't you stand up straight?

Just a bunch of kids, still wet behind the ears.

Hurry up. Let's go!

Koh Yeong Rye?

Koh Yeong Rye!

Where have you been?

Do you have any idea what time it is?

Hey.

Don't tell me you were at that Giant place again...

Seo Jong Hee.

(Cheongah Bus)

I need you to slap me.

What?

I need to snap out of it.

Go on. Do it. And make it hard.

Seriously?

Yes, I'm serious.

I promise I won't hold it against you.

Just do it.

Wait.

Wait.

Don't hit me.

Just pinch me. That's better.

Where have you been?

So did you end up meeting Giant or not?

From now on,

I'm going to forget all about Giant.

And...

I'm going to apply for that instead.

(Recruiting Applicants for Night School)

If I enroll in this,

you're sure the company will give me time off for this, right?

Yes.

I checked. I'm sure.

But studying and I just don't mix.

And there's one more important thing.

Apparently, you need a diploma to be in the Miss Korea pageant.

Gosh. They're all so pretty.

We're pretty too.

Right. You mean you.

You're pretty too.

Although I am a bit prettier, of course.

Anyway...

Are you going to completely forget about Giant...

Hey. Why would you bring him up again?

Don't bring up Giant anymore.

Just don't.

Giant.

Now, I'm stuck having to go to school.

Since we have to go anyway,

night school kids should get uniforms.

Day students and night students. Isn't this blatant discrimination?

Uniforms cost money, you know.

I guess since we're basically going for free.

That's just sad.

All this sadness is making me hungry.

Let's go get something to eat.

Food?

I know an amazing place for soybean paste stew.

Do you want to go?

Let's go.

- Let's go. - Go!

This is the place.

Koh Yeong Bae. Koh Yeong Mi.

- Yeong Rye! - Yeong Rye!

How have you two been?

Say hello. This is my friend.

Hello.

Go on. Say hello.

Hello.

Hi, little ones.

I'm your sister's friend,

Seo Jong Hee.

Here. I got you something!

Pastries!

Gosh. Pastries!

Pastries!

Yeong Mi. Here, have some water.

You too, Yeong Bae.

Koh Yeong Mi.

Do you know what 4 divided by 4 is?

No. What's that?

It's 1. If there are 4 people and 4 pastries,

it means each person gets to eat one.

I guess being a stickler for the numbers runs in the family.

But...

Even in math, there's a little wiggle room.

Here you go.

Today's your lucky day.

Okay.

Thank you.

Eat slowly.

Should I give some to Yeong Bae too?

- Mom. - Good grief. You're always here.

I told you to sleep in on your day off.

Why do you keep coming over?

Goodness. You are so stubborn.

My mom's got such a sharp tongue.

Even though she's happy to see me.

Happy? As if.

Why would I be happy about another mouth to feed?

And who's this?

Hello, I'm...

I'm Yeong Rye's roommate. My name is Seo Jong Hee.

Is that right?

Well, now, look at you.

Aren't you a pretty one?

Since you're here, you might as well stay for a bite.

Good thing you don't look like a big eater.

Give it.

That's just her way of saying she's glad you're here.

That's just how my mom is.

I got the message, loud and clear.

Mom. Is Yeong Sik coming home late today?

I feel like I haven't seen him in ages.

Hi, brother!

Hyeon. Hi.

Hey.

Even Mr. Popular gets tired, I see.

Tired? Not at all.

If my smile can bring happiness to even one person...

Then, according to the Constitution of Korea, Article ten.

"All citizens have the right to pursue happiness."

You'll find an excuse for anything, won't you?

Are you just getting here now? I didn't see you in class.

No, I'm on my way out.

I decided to skip class.

The weather was too nice, so I was photosynthesizing.

Hey. But why are you leaving already?

Right. Today's the day, isn't it?

That tutoring gig. Your secret side hustle.

Thanks for setting me up.

I'll treat you when I get my first paycheck.

Don't worry. Think of all the meals I eat at your place.

You know that's in my neighborhood, right?

I'll be around, so when you're done...

Why?

Again?

The Constitution of Korea, Article 17.

"All citizens have the right to privacy and freedom from intrusion."

So call me. I'm not eating dinner until you do.

Please, take it. No need to make a fuss.

Yes, ma'am.

The wife of the Hwashin Electronics chairman told me...

that you were a top student at Minguk University.

I was expecting you to look geeky,

but you're quite handsome.

Has anyone ever...

told you that you look like Clark Gable?

You know, the actor from "Gone with the Wind?"

I think there's a resemblance in your eyes and your jawline.

- Do you think so? - Yes.

In any case...

My Jae Pil is a pretty good student,

but he seems to have hit a plateau.

And since he's my husband's only son...

By the way, what about you? Do you have any siblings?

I have two younger sisters and a younger brother.

I suppose your brother is around my son's age.

Hi.

So it looks like Jae Pil has finished changing his clothes.

Shall we head upstairs now, Mr. Koh?

Okay.

- Where to? The 2nd floor. Right. - The 2nd floor.

A top law student tutoring illegally?

I guess grades and character are usually inversely proportional.

Well, I don't know about that.

But poverty and conscience usually are.

Something you'll probably never have to learn.

For now, we'll focus on English and Math.

Today will be Math.

Try this one first.

I'm going to time you, so pace yourself.

If it's like you said, and good grades mean bad character,

that means you must have a great personality?

So let's put that great character to use, work hard,

and pull those grades up. Shall we?

You'd have to try to get this first question wrong.

But since you've pulled off such a difficult feat,

I'm sure you'll have no problem overcoming any other obstacles.

And since you're supposedly so smart...

So, shall we begin?

Look.

- That's wrong. - Goodness gracious.

Look how pitch-black the bottoms of their feet are.

Were they rolling around in a coal pit?

At this rate, crows are going to ask to be friends.

- Yeong Rye. - Yes?

Go wash Yeong Bae and Yeong Mi's feet.

Koh Yeong Bae. Koh Yeong Mi. On the count of two. Get up. Move!

- One, two! - One, two!

All right, I'll go get them cleaned up.

- Okay. - Let's go.

Let's go.

Here. You wear the shoes.

- Is this Yeong Rye's room? - Am I first?

Just look at your feet!

(Certificate of Commendation, Certificate of Appreciation)

(Academic Excellence Award: Koh Yeong Sik)

(Award Certificate: Koh Yeong Bae)

I can't make out a single word of this.

Who are you?

I'm Seo Jong Hee. I work with Yeong Rye.

I'm sorry for just walking in like this.

It's okay.

Seo Jong Hee. That's a pretty name. Nice to meet you.

Who's this?

This is Seo Jong Hee. She's Yeong Rye's friend from work.

Do you two know each other?

No, I just met her myself.

Jong Hee, this is...

Yeong Sik. When did you get here?

Looks like Jeong Hyeon is here again.

Hi, Ugly.

Long time no see. You've gotten even uglier.

It's not him, is it?

No wonder.

Hello. You must be Yeong Rye's brother.

My name is Seo Jong Hee.

What's that "that explains it" supposed to mean?

Go wait outside.

- I'm getting a strange vibe here. - Go on. Hurry up.

- Mom. - What?

Putting pumpkin in soybean paste stew is a little strange.

What's wrong with it?

Pumpkin is pumpkin.

The market lady was throwing it out just because it was a bit cracked.

So I snatched it up.

Gosh. Seriously, Mother?

That was a brilliant choice. So that was the secret ingredient.

Goodness.

- Yes. - You're one smooth talker.

So, how is it? Is it any good?

I'll use a fresh one for you next time.

Not at all, Mother.

It's way better than with zucchini.

Goodness. Eat up. Don't just pick at your food.

Your eyes aren't just tired. They look completely sunken.

Is that a human face or a skull?

Here. Eat up.

Okay.

Right.

- Hey. Are you going to... - Oh, no.

You're not? Okay.

- For me? - Go ahead.

Here. You guys eat.

- Goodness. - No.

What are you doing, eating that with your hands?

Slow down. Eat slowly.

Goodness gracious.

Don't fight over it.

- By the way, Mom. - Yes?

I...

I applied to night school with Jong Hee.

What?

You'd have better luck getting blood from a stone.

What studying?

And how in the world are you going to pay the tuition?

I don't have to pay tuition. My company is paying for it.

They said there's a government subsidy.

Even so, it will still cost a pretty penny.

What about a bag and supplies? Do you think those are free?

Don't worry, Mother.

If it's a government subsidy, it'll probably cover most costs.

Anyway, Ugly.

You'll have to get prettier for high school. You are in trouble.

They'll kick you out if you're ugly.

Seo Jong Hee. Stop laughing.

Don't even react to him. Hurry up and eat.

Why not?

Hey. You will. I'm serious.

You could even set a record?

- Stop it. - Your sister really is ugly.

- Just eat your food. - Are you my brother?

- I'm your dad. Now, hurry and eat. - Just eat.

Is that right?

Why is that guy always coming over to our house to eat?

Is he really from a rich family?

He says Mom's cooking is better than his family's housekeeper's.

What's this?

You said you were starting school.

These are my old notebooks. Thought they might help.

Now, get going.

And here I thought he didn't care.

Let's go.

I mean, seriously.

He's so smart,

and so handsome, too.

Do they pick their tutors based on looks?

I told you to interview a tutor,

not hold an audition for a movie star.

Stop going on about his looks.

Come on. If equal, pick the best. It's a bonus that he's handsome.

In any case...

I have a feeling...

he's just the person to get Jae Pil in a top school.

No doubt about it.

My gut tells me he's trustworthy.

I guess we'll see.

Water.

Jae Pil.

Where are you off to at this hour?

I'm going to the boxing gym.

Oh, my gosh. You must be out of your mind.

Do you want your father to kill you again?

Seriously, what's gotten into you?

Just be back early.

Don't stay out too late.

Well, that's a first.

I mean, he should be breathing fire right now.

What's gotten into Mr. Han?

You know what they say. Sudden changes mean death is near.

Is there something you'd like to say?

What?

No, it's nothing.

Alright, off you go.

That kid's harder to read than Han Gi Bok.

Okay, you go first.

One-two.

- Give me an uppercut. - Wait a second.

So you're free to come to the gym whenever you want?

Yes, Sang Cheol.

You've said that a dozen times. Now, hit me.

It's just so hard to believe!

Seriously, what's gotten into your dad?

Getting your friends off suspension and even letting you box...

Like the old saying goes, if someone suddenly changes...

Anyway, it's really something else.

Alright, hit me.

Nice.

Punch properly. Come on.

To celebrate you becoming a free man,

I planned a killer event.

- You're not going to box, right? - You've got to come.

You don't get to say no, got it?

What kind of trouble are you cooking up now?

This wouldn't even count as trouble.

You know our exams are coming up, right?

On the day it's over,

let's go on a 4-on-4 group date.

This Christmas...

I want to have a girlfriend to spend Christmas with.

What about the girl from Ddoddo Snack Bar?

Oh, her?

Turns out she's already taken.

That's why I want to do it too. The group date.

Come on. Let's do it. What do you say, Jae Pil?

A group date? Forget it. I'm out.

Come on. Why not?

You always say no to everything.

Do you know what the three most important things in life are?

Faith, hope, and love!

And the greatest of these is love. Do you understand?

Don't come crying to me later.

When your big brother gives you a chance, you should jump on it.

Who knows? You might meet the love of a lifetime.

Okay. Cut it out and get over here.

Hey. You just said okay.

- Just start already. - So you're in.

Of course. Come on.

- Are you in or not? - Just hit already!

- Are you in or out? - Hit me.

- You're in, right? - Hit me properly.

- You're in, right? - Good one.

You said you're in. We're going!

Do your footwork.

(Cheongah Bus)

- Hey. - Good luck today!

Gosh. That was rough.

Gosh. I'm exhausted.

Do you like that you're going to school?

Are they teaching you anything good?

That's what I'm saying.

What?

Well, look how pretty this is.

Don't touch it!

Gosh.

How was that?

My angry act was pretty good, right?

Did I get you?

Awesome, right?

You gave me a real fright.

Goodness gracious. You nearly scared me to death, girl.

I almost let a bad word slip out.

But you've really got a knack for it?

You're going to be a real actress someday.

- Really? - Yes.

Come to think of it, you're right.

Yeong Rye. We're going to be late for school.

- Let's hurry. - Okay.

- Thanks for the compliment. - You bet.

Be careful crossing the street!

(Hwaran Girls' High School Art Exhibition)

Gosh. Back to school.

School.

I never imagined this, not even in my wildest dreams.

I'm actually going to school.

Do you think I ever imagined this?

Studying. Gosh.

How in the world did I end up here?

Here.

What's this?

I got one for you.

A little something to celebrate our first day of school.

So this is your way of telling me to study hard?

Gosh. This is exactly what I've always wanted!

It's just...

I just hope we can write a new chapter in our lives together.

Thanks for going to school with me, Seo Jong Hee.

You...

Now I can't fall asleep during class, can I?

You've totally got me wrapped around your finger, Koh Yeong Rye.

You bet. If you start to nod off, I'll be there to wake you up.

You're one scary woman.

You're a sly fox disguised as a teddy bear.

Okay, fine.

Since...

Since you were so thoughtful, I'll carry it with me always.

I can't promise I'll actually study with it, though.

- Let's go. - Okay.

- What is it? - Look at this.

(Good luck to whoever is studying here!)

That's cute.

That's adorable. I should write back.

Excuse me. One second. I think my MyMy is at my desk.

It's here. Thank goodness.

Excuse me. You're from Bus 100, right?

You're the one who gave me a ride when I was about to be late.

Oh, right!

You're that student.

That's me. I can't believe you're here...

- It's so good to see you! - It's so good to see you too!

This is so crazy. What are the odds...

Hello?

I was there with her that day, you know?

Get over here, then.

This is so wild.

- Mom. - Yes?

Why are you closing up so early today?

Well, it's nice to have a day like this once in a while.

We sold out of all the sugar we brought.

And we were packed with customers for the horse rides all day long.

Oh, gosh.

If every day were like today, we would be rich in no time.

Really? Are we rich now, Mom?

Of course! To us, this is a fortune.

Yeong Bae. Yeong Mi. Come here for a second.

Okay!

Here you go.

Here. Go buy yourselves some ice pops.

Gosh. Ice pops!

Let's go, Yeong Mi!

Honestly.

It's the little things that make them so happy.

Oh, my goodness!

Oh, no!

Oh, no.

Oh, goodness.

Koh Yeong Rye. Hurry home!

Your mom was in an accident and got hurt!

Mom!

Mom, are you okay? Are you all right?

What's all the fuss?

I'm not dead. Don't be so dramatic.

What happened?

How did this happen?

She was pulling her cart up a hill, and she fell.

She cut up her knees and arms a bit.

And I told her to go to the hospital in case of internal injuries,

but she's being stubborn, as usual.

Mom, come on. You're really worrying me.

We need to get you to a hospital.

A hospital? Don't be ridiculous.

Cut the nonsense.

The hospital is the least of my worries.

That cart. What am I going to do about the cart?

I had to go to the head of my savings club...

and beg to get the first payout so I could finally buy it.

I still have a year of payments, and now I've gone and destroyed it.

What am I going to do? Goodness.

- Mom. - Mom.

I guess you can't escape your fate.

I just had to open my big mouth and say we were okay. I jinxed it.

That's how I feed my family of five. What am I going to do?

My poor kids. What's going to happen to them?

Mom.

(Bus)

One at a time, please!

Hurry on up.

All clear!

Manager,

can't you make just one exception?

Please, sir. Just this once.

I'm in a really desperate spot.

Yeong Rye. Are you that desperate?

Yes.

Well, I've got bigger problems. All right?

Corporate is breathing down my neck about our deposit numbers.

This job is going to be the death of me.

And I'd like to live a long life.

Manager.

Forget it. Every single one of you has some sob story.

Someone's parents are on death's door.

For another, their house is flooded and destroyed every other day.

I mean, if I hear this sob story and that sob story,

how is the company supposed to stay in business?

Are we running a charity here?

Do you think money just grows on trees?

That we can just pluck it whenever we want?

Then...

If you can't give me a two-month advance...

- How about just one month's? - Hey.

What if you just take the advance and run off?

How am I supposed to cover that?

You're really making this difficult for me.

For goodness' sake.

You know I'm not that kind of person.

Sir, I would never just run off.

I promise on my life. I really mean it.

"Promise?"

You know what I don't believe in? Promises. You hear me?

And I trust people even less.

Absolutely not. Now get out.

Manager, please.

I just have nowhere else to turn.

Quiet! Get out! Go on. Get back to work.

Get out!

What brings you here?

I doubt you came just to check on me.

Uncle.

The money you borrowed from my dad...

Could you please pay it back?

What?

You people in this family...

are always harping on about that money.

Your mother came here and made a scene...

when your brother started college.

I already paid that money back. How many times must I tell you?

But you didn't.

We know everything.

Then...

Lend me some money, then.

I promise I'll pay you back.

My mom was in an accident, and her cart was destroyed.

She's hurt, too.

But she's refusing to even go to the hospital.

I'll pay you back.

I promise I'll find a way to pay you back someday.

Business has been slow for us lately.

We're completely tapped out...

of money.

And frankly...

Your mother is the one who cut us off in the first place.

She ghosts us on the holidays without so much as a phone call.

But you only show up when you need money.

Here. Take this for bus fare.

Gosh. What on earth happened?

I'm fine, really.

You silly goose.

If it's raining, you could at least buy a cheap umbrella.

What are you doing, wandering around in the rain?

You're going to catch a cold.

Oh, no.

And what on earth happened to your nails?

What's this here?

I'm a total wreck, aren't I?

Just hold still. I'll go find a bandage for that.

It's always one thing after another with you, Koh Yeong Rye.

The housemother is already complaining...

that our room's deposits are always short.

So don't you dare get sick and miss work.

You'll be dead meat.

The rest of you, get to bed!

Listen to Hae Ja, girls.

How on earth did you get so hurt?

I'm okay.

If all those stars were money,

I'd stay up all night,

whatever it takes,

and I'd pick them all,

every last one.

What are you up to?

Come on in.

What are you doing, Ms. Koh?

It's not like you're exercising under the moonlight.

Why the cleaning?

I probably won't want to do it at dawn tomorrow,

so I'm doing it now.

Right.

Cleaning at 4 am is no joke.

I'm still going to wait until tomorrow, though.

You're upset about your mom's accident, aren't you?

I guess you don't know I have superpowers.

The truth is...

I'm an alien from a star called Andromeda.

And that's why...

I can see right through what humans are thinking.

- Really? - Yes.

Or so I'd like to say, but...

I just don't have the energy for it today.

Then how did you know?

Just a lucky guess.

Here.

What's this for?

It's a gift.

You gave me one, too.

It might not look like much,

but he's a pretty hefty guy.

I can't...

Use this to get your mom a new cart.

I'm not just giving it to you, though.

It's a loan.

You can pay me when you're a teacher and you get your first paycheck.

And I won't charge you interest.

No, I can't take this.

How can I possibly take this much money from you?

Just take it.

This is what this money is for.

End of discussion.

Jong Hee, but really...

Come on. Just take it.

Fine. Then, as a bonus, I'm putting one favor in the bank.

And you have to grant it, no matter what. Okay?

But still, I can't take it.

Take it.

I'll be hurt if you don't.

If it makes you feel better,

then you can pay me back a certain amount each month.

Hey.

What is it?

Koh Yeong Rye. Are you crying?

I'm not crying. It's just the rain.

The rain stopped a while ago.

Gosh. Koh Yeong Rye.

You're easy. All it takes is a little money?

That's right. I can be bought. I love money.

What are you going to do about it?

But seriously...

After going through all this,

I realized you absolutely have to have money.

It was a real wake-up call.

What if Mom...

had been seriously hurt?

Money's a scary thing, isn't it?

You're just figuring that out now?

You know.

I've started keeping a diary lately.

With the fountain pen you gave me.

And guess what?

You know what I find myself writing the most?

"Did something with Yeong Rye."

"It was fun."

"I laughed so hard. I was happy."

I was never the kind of person who used words like that.

But thanks to you, life's gotten a little more fun.

So, you see...

That doesn't even compare.

You're giving me something so much more valuable.

That was a little...

cheesy, Seo Jong Hee.

I know.

I regretted it the second I said it.

This is my favorite song.

- So full of love - So full of love

- You and I alone - You and I alone

- Where and as what - Where and as what

- Shall we meet again - Shall we meet again

(Yeong Sik's Horse Rides)

Gosh. This beauty is just gleaming.

It's much more handsome than the last one.

This must've cost a fortune.

Did you really get a paycheck advance for this?

What's gotten into him? That cheapskate personnel manager.

- Well... - Well, Yeong Rye...

is just that good at her job.

It'd be a huge loss for them if she went to another company.

So they're just buttering her up.

Well, at least he knows a good thing when he sees it.

I can get right back out there and start working tomorrow. Right?

- Mom. - Mom.

No way. What are you talking about, business?

You need to rest all this week. You can go out next week.

Nonsense.

I'm stir-crazy from not working for a few days.

I'm perfectly fine.

What do you mean, "perfectly fine?" You look like you should be in bed.

Hurry up and go rest. I'll get your bed ready.

- Come on. Go on. - Honestly. Don't fuss.

- Go on. Get inside. - Hey, you little brat.

When did you get so strong? Oh, my gosh.

- I told you I'm fine! - Get in.

Yeong Rye told me.

Thank you. I promise I'll pay you back.

Please. Don't worry about paying me back.

You two really are siblings, aren't you?

It's not like I need the money right away.

If you really insist on paying it back,

you can play rock-paper-scissors with Yeong Rye for it.

I was a step too late.

Okay. Pencils down!

Hands on your heads.

Person in the last row, pass the answer sheets forward.

The answer...

Here.

My bad neck always flares up around exam time.

Maybe from sleeping with my head on the desk all the time?

Here?

- Right there. That's the spot. - Goodness.

That's something to be proud of.

Hey! You're messing up my hair.

You have no idea how much work I put into this this morning.

It's so sticky.

What is this? Did you use mousse?

- Of course I did. - Why?

Because, as I've already announced,

today is our last big blind date of senior year.

So you're coming, right?

I made it very clear I'm not going. You go on your own.

Come on. Hey.

Can't you do this one little thing for your friend?

The numbers are already set!

My handsome and cool friend, who's also super loyal. Jae Pil.

Brother!

So now I'm your brother? You say that when you want a favor.

- I'm begging you. - No.

- Please, just for an hour! - Let go.

Please, just for one hour!

- Gosh. - I'll owe you big. Just one hour.

You're driving me nuts. Brother!

Please.

So Yeong and Jeong Hui were supposed to go,

but they bailed when they got tickets for "Music Top Ten."

You got to help me out, just this once.

It's a 4-on-4 date. How can only 2 of us show up?

No way. I hate these things.

I know, right? It's always a bunch of losers.

But they said one of them is very popular.

For real!

- I told you no. - You go by yourself then.

Look...

I'll give you my MyMy.

You two can listen to music on it.

- Please. - It's a cassette player.

This kind of deal between friends is not exactly proper.

How many people bailed on this blind date, you said?

- Two? - Two.

Okay.

We'll take their spots.

Seo Jong Hee! What are you talking about?

We have class.

A group date? No way.

No way.

No way. That's out of the question.

Why is it out of the question?

I always wanted to try one of those group dates.

Let's just do it while we have the chance. Okay?

Then what about our class?

And besides...

I don't feel right about going and pretending to be a day student.

Why? I think it sounds fun.

And Ju Gyeong said she could lend us the uniforms.

Let's do it, Yeong Rye. Please?

No. I can't do it.

You know I'm a terrible liar.

- I can't. - Hey.

You only get better at lying with practice.

Come on. Please?

Okay, fine.

Then I'm cashing in that favor right now.

You know, the wish I've been saving, the one you promised you'd grant?

You haven't forgotten, have you?

But that's...

- Hey. - What?

One hour. That's it.

We're here for one hour, tops. Then I'm off to boxing.

Fine. Suit yourself.

You can just sit there and look pretty.

After all, your only job...

is to be the eye candy that brings up our average.

Hey. They're here.

(A Hundred Memories)

- I had fun today. - Bye!

Hey. They're just leaving like this?

Are you planning to ask them on another date?

What?

I have a great idea.

What are you up to?

A boxing gym event?

They asked me to tell you they really want to invite you.

The handsome one.

He is the one who is into Yeong Rye.

(What's on your mind? Are you thinking of Han Jae Pil?)

I'm sure it's not like that.

Are you coming today?

- Hi. - Hi.

Let's go.

It'll be fun.

(Giant Boxing Gym)

Stop it!

Stop it.
