All language subtitles for Can This Love Be Translated Episode 1 kisskh

If they knew I was coming here,
they could've told me to wear sneakers.

They told me to get all dressed up,
and for what?

My legs are killing me.

Damn it.

Ms. Cha Mu-hee, your mic's going live.

Ah, fuck.

Please hold the action cam upright.

Is this good?

These heels will be ruined.

Hey, is my manager there?

Mu-hee, I'm listening.

Were these shoes a gift or a loan?

Those are on loan.
Please be careful with them.

All right. Okay.

Please track Ms. Cha Mu-hee,
just like that.

Drone one, push in
for a tighter front shot on Ms. Cha.

Park, is in-ear interpretation ready?

Yes, we're good to go.

Mr. Joo.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Add some inserts here and there.

Ms. Cho?

Mr. Joo, are you ready?

Yes, I'm all set too.

Wow, we're so high up.

So, back in the day, all this belonged
to the king who lived in this castle.

Imagine standing here, looking out,
knowing all of this land was yours.

How many acres is all this?

You can't lean on that. Step back.

What's that?

It's not like you
to speak up like this, Mr. Joo.

Are you worried about me?
What, in case I blow away?

It's on the sign in front of you.

"Do not lean or climb on the railing."

I simply translated it.

What about those who don't speak Italian?
It should also be in English.

It is also in English.
You just couldn't read it.

I know English.

I can read my ABCs. Here it is.

That's German.

It's in English below that.

I only mixed them up
because they look so similar.

People who can tell the difference
are the weird ones.

Today's the last day of filming.

I wrote a farewell message
for Hiro in Japanese.

No need to interpret that for me.

All right.

Now, tracking Hiro.

"It's a beautiful day."

"I chose this spot for our final shoot.
I'm glad the weather's cooperating."

"Let's go that way.
The view from over there is even better."

Have you been here before?

"I once filmed a series here,
when I was new to acting."

"I made so many mistakes
that I still remember my lines clearly."

"I was such a terrible actor then."

Really?

How terrible, exactly?
Now I'm curious. Is it on YouTube?

Please don't look it up.
I really don't want to remember.

What was it again?

"Cringewar"?

"Cringeworth"?

"Cringeworth"?

Oh, cringeworthy?

That's it!

- Cringeworthy?
- Cringeworthy!

That's amazing.

They seem closer compared to
when we started shooting.

Don't they?

Now that the trip's almost over,
they're practically besties!

"Beautiful."

"So much that I can't look away."

I agree.

We saw so many beautiful places
while filming.

I'm a little bummed that it's over.

I agree.

I would like…

to keep seeing you.

I think the reason every moment

of our journey has been beautiful…

is that you

were a part of the scenery.

What did he just say?

Can you interpret…

Is he saying goodbye?

Should I give my farewell message now?

Mr. Joo,

if you were too shocked
to interpret what I just said,

can you just pass on

these words to her?

Mr. Joo, what's he saying?

I can't reply
unless you pass on his message.

I guess your farewell message
won't be necessary.

Let me interpret his words.

He asked me to tell you…

"I really like you, Cha Mu-hee."

Did you hear that?

Did the message get through?

CAN THIS LOVE BE TRANSLATED?

JAPAN

Here's the forecast across the country
for Monday, April 8th.

It looks like
more areas will see sunshine today.

Rain is expected
in southern Kanto in the morning,

but skies will gradually clear.

1 YEAR AGO, APRIL

"Let's hear from Mr. Kim Young-hwan,
who is well-loved in Japan too."

I am elated to bring my latest novel
to my Japanese readers.

I hope all of you enjoy it.

Thank you.

They'll now take questions from the press.

You had a big turnout.

See? That's how popular I am.
Only you look down on me.

When have I ever looked down on you?

Anyway, thanks
for putting up with this old man

and interpreting the past few days.

Here.

The publisher gave it to me.

The Japanese are great
at this sort of thing.

Why would you give me your gift?

A Japanese literary magazine is coming
to Seoul next month to interview me.

I'd like you to interpret for me then too.

I'm sorry, but I can't.
I won't be in Seoul then.

Right, you said you're going to Spain,
didn't you?

Yes, I probably won't be back in Korea
for a few months once I leave.

Oh no, that won't do.

You're the only one who can make sense
of my nonsense and interpret it.

Why not delay your Spain trip a little?

So dragging a busy guy to Japan
and making him work wasn't enough?

Aren't you being too shameless?

Then why don't we swing by a sushi bar
before the airport for a drink?

Mr. Kim, please.
Cut down on your drinking.

You kept mixing up
the characters in your novel.

The name of the heroine's first husband
is Nam Hyeon-su, not Park In-cheol.

Yeong-suk's first husband is Nam Hyeon-su?

You're the one who wrote the novel.

I was at a loss
while interpreting there, seriously.

You handled it just fine.
So fine that it's my treat. Let's go.

You can treat me next time.
I have somewhere to visit while I'm here.

Where?

Heading somewhere nice on your own?
Meeting someone?

- Do you have a date?
- Have a safe trip back, Mr. Kim.

Oh, so it is a date, then?

Wow, and here I thought
you had no game whatsoever.

If it's a date,
share those cookies with her.

Nice and sweet!

To transfer to the Enoden Line,
first exit the JR Line using your ticket.

Once you exit, turn right,
and you'll see the central square.

Keep walking past the square,

and when you see this sign,
go through the gates to the left.

- Sorry.
- Sorry.

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

You're out of Korean leaflets.

Oh, sorry. We'll restock them.

Thank you.

Paolo, stop messing around, please.

It's all right.
He didn't do it on purpose.

Wow! You speak Italian.

We've never met a Japanese person
who speaks Italian.

I'm not Japanese. I'm Korean.

- Really?
- Oh, Korean?

- Have you ever been to Italy?
- Yes, I have.

"Hashtag, Momo-chan Ramen."

"Hashtag, a fresh start."

"Hashtag, grateful for you."

I must say, your Italian is very good.

"Hashtag, will make you happy."

Excuse me.

The food is hot. Here you go.

Thank you.

Let me know if you need anything.

Can kids eat this?

Yes, but kids might find it a bit spicy.

Welcome.

Please sit anywhere you'd like.

Ma'am?

Please.

Excuse me.

Here's our menu.

Are you Momo-chan,
the owner of Momo-chan Ramen?

Yes.

Okay, one Momo-chan Ramen coming right up.

Excuse me.

I would recommend that you order… this.

Okay, thank you.

She looked older in the photos.

I am here in search of a Korean man
who wishes to have

a fresh start with you, Momo-chan.

It sounds too much like a news anchor.

Isn't there an option
to change the tone of voice?

Make it a little tougher?

Oh, he's Chinese?

I thought he was Korean.

First, let's give you a female voice.

I need you to interpret well.

Can this app swear too?

Fuck.

Fuck.

KakaoTalk?

You're Korean?

You understood everything?

You did, didn't you?

I happened to hear.

You were eavesdropping
while pretending to be Chinese.

When did I ever pretend to be Chinese?

You were pretending
to read that Chinese pamphlet.

I wasn't pretending. I was reading it.
I don't just read the Chinese one.

I always read the English,
French, and Italian ones.

Come on, don't be ridiculous.

What are you, Papago?

Look here, I--

Paolo!

Paolo!

Our son is sick. Please call an ambulance.

We don't speak Japanese.

What happened to him?

He has an allergy.

Something in his snack earlier
must have triggered a reaction.

An ambulance, please.

Please tell them
a boy is having an allergic reaction.

Okay.

What snack did he eat?

Here.

This one.

You'd better take this with you
to the hospital.

Okay.

I called an ambulance.

But the alleyway here is narrow.

It may be a while before they arrive.

She says the alley's too narrow,
so the ambulance might take a while.

- I'll carry him to the main street.
- Okay, honey.

I'll carry him.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Tell the ambulance to meet us
at the main street entrance.

Okay.

I'll watch your things.

Okay, thank you.

So he really is Papago.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

I let the paramedics know
what's going on with Paolo.

Give me a call if you need
additional interpretation at the hospital.

Thank you so much.

- Please take care of him.
- Got it.

Turning left soon. Please be careful.

Thank you.

Can you help me too?

I have an emergency too.

I was going to use Papago,

but I think a human voice
will be better than AI

at conveying my feelings
in a more authentic way.

I don't want to interpret
a sordid lovers' quarrel.

I knew it. You heard everything.

- Fuck.
- F…

You heard that too, right?

I happened to hear.

Then you'll know I'm here to beg
a man who's starting over to take me back.

Please help me.

If he rejects me via Papago,

I'll feel unbearably pathetic.

Fine. I'll help you.

But I'm not interpreting any profanity.

She says Mr. Kim Yu-jin isn't here
but in Tokyo.

He's not here?

Or maybe he saw me and hid.

I feel like
the two of them are lying to me.

So what? You want me to tell her that?

Forget it.

Just ask her when he'll be back.

She says she'll call over his girlfriend.

Excuse me?

Eiko, can you come out here for a moment?

Is she really the one
he's starting over with?

It is!

He even posted her photo on Instagram,
calling it "a fresh start." Look.

It's her, isn't it?

You guessed wrong.

No way…

I naturally thought
it was the younger woman in the photo.

Could you just ask her

how far along she is?

Seven months, she says.

He broke up with me three months ago.

Seven months…

I must have been crazy.

That absolute douchebag!

Excuse me.

Is she Ms. Cha Mu-hee?

Probably.

I have something I'd like to say to her.
Could you pass it on for me?

Excuse me!

Excuse me!

Can you type this in Japanese for me?
"The Korean chef here is a dirtbag."

Hashtag two-timer,
hashtag cheater, hashtag manwh…

Die. I'm going to curse you!
I hope you go out of business!

As with profanity, I don't translate
curses wishing ill on others.

I'd rather not get involved,

but the woman asked me to pass on
a message, so I'll do that much.

The father of my child

is my ex-husband, not Yu-jin.

Even though I knew it was selfish,

I wanted to rely on his kindness.

But if Ms. Cha Mu-hee
is able to change his mind,

I'd happily let him go.

She told me to take him?
Could you have misheard?

I passed on what I heard.

What's her deal?

Is she mocking me?
Like "Take him if you can"?

How did it seem to you?

I just relayed the message.

No, I mean,
do you really think she meant it?

It's too suspicious!

She's in a rough spot,
but she's being nice!

I only pass along the words people say,
not judge what kind of person they are.

Fine. We'll go back together and see.
Let's go, Mr. Papago.

That's enough!

Ms. Cha… Mu-hee?

If you'd broken up, it's not betrayal.
And it's not his baby, so he didn't cheat.

They're just two people--

In love… is what you're saying.

- That pisses me off.
- Exactly.

Go any further,
and you become the bad guy.

Whether I end up the bad guy
or a crazy bitch, I'll deal with it.

- I just need you to interpret.
- I refuse.

Usually, if you want to act bad or crazy,
the act of destruction itself

is enough to convey
just how pissed off you really are.

No interpretation needed.
Or use a language that's universal.

Best of luck.

You said you don't judge,
so why am I the bad guy?

So their love is pure and sweet,

but mine has to end a mess, with this?

He told me he was breaking up with me
and vanished.

He's done it before, so I just waited.

But three months later,
he posted a photo saying "a fresh start."

That's why I came here to find him.

It may seem desperate and pathetic,
but this is love too.

I don't want to end it with this.

Help me end things
with a shred of dignity.

Please translate my love too.

I beg you.

Hey, Yu-jin.

Yes, everything is fine here.

You'll be back tonight?

No, I wouldn't want you to hurry.

Come back tomorrow as scheduled.

Yes.

Okay, see you tomorrow.

Sorry, but we're closed…

I appreciate your kind heart.

But I came back

because there's something
I want to ask you.

While I was dating him,

he'd go off the grid from time to time,

for anything from a week
to over two months.

Was he with you during those times?

So he was.

So he really did cheat.
He really did betray me.

She said he comforted and helped her
in her time of need.

You shouldn't sugarcoat what he did.

What, was he helping the needy?
Is she a beggar?

If pity is what made him stay,
that's like begging to be loved.

I'll take that as angry self-talk
and leave those words untranslated.

You said you wanted
to keep your dignity intact.

Still, he always found his way back to me.

I guess he won't be able to
now that you're a soon-to-be single mom.

Not that I'd take him back if he did.

Since you won't translate profanity,
let's go with some words of encouragement.

It may be love gained from misfortune,

but I hope you're happy.

She wants you to hear her out.

Actually, Yu-jin and I were dating
when he was studying in Japan.

But his heart was stolen by another woman.

She was abandoned by her family

and had no one to turn to,
helpless in a miserable situation.

It was as if

she were the tragic heroine of a movie,
weighed down by a burden of misery.

Every time, I would try to make him stay,

but he still left,
saying he couldn't leave her alone.

Who is she talking about?

That woman is you.

What did she just say?

What did she say?

The one who used their misery to be loved

is you.

Even after realizing her man betrayed her,
she still came all this way.

She must have been really lonely
to throw away her pride like this.

- Hey.
- Don't say a word. I got the gist.

I have no intention
of understanding this woman's words

and making the face she wants to see.

Then what do you want to do?

I don't know.

But I think I'm about to cry.

If I end up crying in front of that woman,
I'll die of humiliation.

Then stay like this,
and I'll sort things out.

With as much dignity as possible.

There seems to have been
a misunderstanding.

She and I are traveling together.

We just dropped by to say hello.

Sorry? The two of you
are traveling together?

We brought a gift from Tokyo.

She was just trying to be polite,
yet you have been incredibly rude.

What you just said will stay with me.

I won't pass along any words
that may hurt her.

If you're better now, let's go.

Thank you so much for your help today.

- In case I got anything on you earlier.
- I'm fine.

That gift looked pricey.
How much was it? I'll pay.

It was gifted to me too.

Really?

Still, I feel really bad.

Should I treat you to a meal?
We both skipped lunch.

I'm really okay.

- Don't worry about it.
- Okay.

Take care.

About today.

Thank you, and I'm sorry.

Enjoy your trip.

Thank you.

She still came all this way.

She must have been really lonely
to throw away her pride like this.

- Yes, thanks.
- Thank you.

A woman weighed down
by a burden of misery?

Doesn't seem that way to me.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Excuse me?

- I forgot to give you your phone back.
- What is it now?

- You just got a call from a foreigner.
- Right.

Yes, hello.

My son is fine, thanks to your help.
Thank you so much.

I'm glad to hear that.

We'd like to give you a gift as thanks.

There's no need.

We had a dinner reservation,

but we won't be able to go
as we need to stay at the hospital.

The reservation is for two people.

If the person who answered is a friend
of yours, you could go with her.

Right, friend…

The reservation was hard to get,
and it's already paid for.

We'd love for you to go.

Okay, then. I will.

Thank you very much.

Yes. Okay, thank you.

Goodbye.

That was Italian, wasn't it?

Yes.

It must be that kid from earlier.
Is he okay?

Thankfully, he's recovering.

Thank goodness.

And thank goodness
I didn't take off with your phone.

Today's a lucky day.

Ms. Cha Mu-hee.

What are you going to do now? Any plans?

I've already done what I came here to do.
As you saw.

Why?

Then would you like to join me for dinner?

- Earlier, you said you didn't want to.
- I never said that.

I simply didn't see a need to.

So what's changed?

That Italian family treated me to dinner.

It's for two people,
and it'd be a waste to go by myself.

That would be a waste.
Is it at an expensive place?

Probably.

Then I'll come and do you a favor
as my thanks.

I'm the one doing you a favor,
so why act like it's the other way around?

Oh please.

Good food is never as good or as filling
when eaten alone.

- Let's go. Should we take a cab?
- The reservation is at 7:00.

Then should we meet
outside the restaurant at 7:00?

Let's hang out until then.

If you're okay with that.

What should we do until then?

Well, this is a tourist spot,

so let's go sightseeing.

I know it's a bit late,

but what's your name?

Joo Ho-jin.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Joo Ho-jin.

I'm Cha Mu-hee.

Yes, I know.
Nice to meet you, Ms. Cha Mu-hee.

We're heading to Enoshima next. Off we go!

NA JIN-SUK

You're an actor?

So you're a celebrity?

Not every celebrity is famous.

That only applies

to the top 5%, I suppose.

But you can totally look me up online.

What? Right.

Wow, you've been in a lot of stuff.

You were in the movie The Crooks?
I've seen that.

I bet you're wondering
which scenes I was in.

I get it. I only appeared
for a split second.

I felt embarrassed
to include it in my filmography,

but my agent called the search engine
and urged them to add it.

Either way, over ten million people
saw a movie you were in.

So what? Nobody knows I was in it.

There might be fireworks and celebrations,
but the festival isn't for me.

It's only for the people in the limelight.

Like that woman said,

I'm an unlucky actress
who's never seen success.

If she's right,
you'll be successful from now on.

If a man who's drawn to misfortune
has left you,

that must mean
happiness is all that awaits you.

You're good at interpreting,
but even better at reframing things.

It said "top-ranked."
A little further this way.

A NEW START. A FESTIVAL WITH FIREWORKS!
WITH #PAPAGO #GRATEFUL_FOR_YOU

Aren't you gonna take any photos?

Don't you have Instagram?

I do, but I rarely post.

I have 9,989 followers.

A shame, isn't it?

What is?

Just a few more, and I'd be at 10,000.

I just can't seem to hit it.

You want me to follow you?

Come on, it's not much to ask.
Let's be mutuals.

- I don't follow many people.
- I'll consider it.

I'd be nervous being mutuals
with a celebrity.

I'm not famous enough
for you to feel nervous.

Well, who knows?

You could blow up, just like you said,
and hit ten million followers.

Then they'd come
snooping around my account.

You have a knack for saying no
in the most flattering way possible.

We should head back down.

The view from that observatory is great,
but we'd be late for dinner.

Have you been here before?

Yes.

And you're here again?

By yourself?

There's a legend on this island.

The legend says the dragon god of the sea
fell for a maiden from the heavens

and made this island as a gift for her.

I guess he really went all out.

The person I came here with

said they wanted this island
for their birthday too.

Today happens to be their birthday,
so I thought I'd stop by.

An island as a birthday gift?

They wanted you here on their birthday?

That's a confession. Was it a woman?

Come on. You witnessed
every detail of my pathetic love life.

It's only fair you spill.

Why would I share any of that
with a stranger?

That's exactly why you would!

You can speak freely,
since we'll never see each other again.

That's why I'm not embarrassed at all.

It was a very long time ago.

And back then,

I pretended not to understand her,
the same way you did earlier.

She confessed in a roundabout way
and probably thought you rejected her.

Why not ask her to join you here now?
You said today is her birthday.

She has someone else
to spend birthdays with now.

Come on. We'll be late.

Wait for me.

I think we're almost there.

Can't we just ask a passerby
for directions?

You even speak Japanese.

No.

I think I know where it is now.

It's just two more blocks this way.

But

we keep going in circles.

- I think it's this way.
- Hey, stop. Wait there.

I think the restaurant's this way,
not that way.

- It's this way.
- Wanna bet?

If I win, you have to follow me.

Is getting 10,000 followers
that important?

It is to me. So you agree to the bet?

Excuse me.

Restaurant.

- Hey, Jin-suk.
- That way?

- I'm in Japan.
- This way?

Hey. It's Ji-sun's birthday today,

but we had a fight,
and now I can't reach her.

I just saw her post on Instagram.
Looks like she's in Japan.

Can you check
and see if you can tell where exactly?

- It's that way.
- This way?

Thank… Thank you.

Hey! The restaurant is this way.

Yes! I win.

What's the matter?

The person whose birthday is today

is there on that island.

That's great!

Go! Hurry up and go to her! I'll be fine.

This is an opportunity.

If you waste it,
you'll end up here again, all alone.

No playing dumb this time.

Then things will change.

He went.

It's a shame I don't even have his number.

I wonder if he'll follow me.

This is an announcement
for visitors to Enoshima Observatory.

NA JIN-SUK

Who is it?

Room service.

Have a pleasant evening.

Cut, okay!

We're good!

Pretty good, right?

The scenes are much gorier

than how they were written in the script.

But the background music will be very…
How should I describe it?

Really bright and upbeat.
Sounds fun, doesn't it?

Right, sure!

Today's the last day of filming,

and our film will be a hit.

Our lead character, Do Ra-mi!

- You got this!
- I got this!

I should get back.
That rib cage is so cute.

Mu-hee.

Today's our last day,

but I still don't get
what this movie is about.

Is this a horror movie or a comedy?

Our director is a genius.
Don't you dare try to judge his art.

I'm just worried
since it's your first lead role.

Even your name's weird.

"Do Ra-mi"?
"Do Re-mi" would make more sense.

If this were an obvious hit,

the role of Do Ra-mi
wouldn't have come to me.

I'll just give it my all
until the very end.

- Today might not be our last day.
- We ask for your understanding.

The director argued with the stunt team,
so it might be called off.

We'll move quickly
so we can shoot everything, okay?

That makes no sense!
We're the ones setting up.

They're at it again.

- Please calm down a bit and--
- You're telling me to calm down?

Faster isn't necessarily better.
I'm just asking for more time to prepare.

I told you before.
We can't do all this today!

I, well…

Thanks for doing the stunt yourself.
It's a tough scene.

Of course I should do it.
This is the most important scene.

And it's the last day of filming.

I swear we'll do this in one take,
just like we promised.

Good.

Be careful.

Just relax.

The fireworks festival starts at 9:00.

Let's all pick up the pace
so we can wrap this up before then.

Yes.

Okay, ready?

Here we go.

HOTEL DIAMORTE

HOTEL DI E

Cut, okay!

We're good!

That's a wrap!

Great work, everyone!

Hey, reel in the stunt wire!

- Great job. Thank you.
- Thanks for all your work.

Mu-hee!

As I shut my eyes for what I thought
would be my last moments,

elsewhere,

they were busy
enjoying a festival of their own.

My life had been
entirely devoid of fireworks,

and here they were,
exploding in the distant sky.

How beautiful.

It pisses me off.

Ms. Cha Mu-hee?

Ms. Cha Mu-hee?

You're finally awake, Ms. Cha Mu-hee.

Congratulations.

Ms. Cha Mu-hee has regained consciousness.

The whole world rooted for Do Ra-mi,
and now she's back with us.

To our relief, she immediately recognized
everyone around her

and has no problems communicating.

The Korean actress Cha Mu-hee,
who sparked the Do Ra-mi craze worldwide,

has finally regained consciousness.

Last July, Ms. Cha fell from a rooftop
while filming The Quiet Woman.

…came out of a coma after six months.

The actress suffered a serious accident

when she fell from a roof
while filming the movie The Quiet Woman.

The Korean actress Cha Mu-hee,
who sparked the Do Ra-mi craze worldwide,

has finally regained consciousness.

I had simply closed my eyes
for a brief moment,

but in the world laid before me
when I reopened them,

for the first time in my life,

a lavish festival
was being held just for me.

Ms. Cha, who's made a miraculous recovery,

is said to be experiencing
no cognitive issues

and, barring any lingering aftereffects,
should be able to resume…
