- So... this is Daehan high school. - Yes.

Go get Yu Jun-su.

- Okay boss. - Let's go!

Wait right there, Yu Jun-su. Jang Woo from Myeongseong is coming.

Are they dating in this holy campus?

Hey! Th...th...there!

- What? - Th...th...there. It's him.

Jun-seong's 17 to 3. Hey, Yu Jun-su! Yu Jun-su!

Hey, Yu Jun-su. Hey dude! Yu Jun-su!

Hey, Yu Jun-su. Hey dude!

And the middle school girl who liked Jun-seong was So-ra.

This young girl was the girlfriend of the guy who fought with Jun-su.

And this girl kissed Jun-seong,

leaving behind his high school boy friend.

She cheated on him.

Ah!

Jang Guk! Hey Jang Guk!

Jang Guk, Hey Jang Guk!

What're you doing you bastard!

Jun-su. Hold it.

- Hey hold it please. - Let me go.

We're at school.

And we're 3rd grade. Let's be careful.

Jun-su.

Hey Jun-su.

Are you okay?

Jun-su.

What are you doing?

- We should go to the hospital. - Wait, wait Jun-su.

Hello.

Hello, it's me.

Is it you, Sam-suk?

Oh yes.

Are you calling from US?

Yeah America. It's daytime there right?

Yes, it's daytime. And it's night over there right?

Yeah, it's dark in the dawn.

Why did you call so early? You must be tired.

I'm dead tired, but I was too curious.

Did Go-sun and her kids move to Seoul from Busan?

Yeah, the kids already went to school now.

They're all okay right?

Of course they're okay. They should be.

Sorry sister,

that I can't even go to the funeral.

It's not like you're in Seoul or Busan.

Don't worry.

I'll have a chat with Go-sun next time.

It must be too painful for her.

Okay, I'll tell her that you called.

You guys are okay there right?

We're super busy,

dealing with Americans who loves meat.

Yeah, that's good to hear.

Bye, I'll try to call more often.

No need to call often.

No news is good news.

Don't skip your meals, Il-suk.

Eating is important you know. Eat regularly.

I have my grandkids around, so that helps.

This call charge is going to be too much. Bye.

Okay Il-suk. Bye.

Bye.

Take care, see you next time.

You got a call?

Your aunt, Sam-suk.

She's sorry that she wasn't able to come to the funeral.

She'll talk to you next time.

Oh she doesn't have to be sorry.

How's aunt?

She's busy.

- Very busy. - Well that's that.

About the dumplings here.

Are there some secrets about them?

There's no secret, it's just home-made.

Home-made.

Oh not that, Guk was talking about something,

Re... Recipe?

Oh whatever, I wish we can advertise this place on television.

Television.

Yeah, should we really do it?

On one of the programs that reviews restaurants.

It would be great if our place got featured there.

That's all about money you know.

I do have money.

The settlement money for Min-seob.

I've been saving them for my kids' intuition fee.

You can't use that money. That was the cost for his death.

I didn't say anything.

I'm just saying because you asked.

How much is it?

Oh, you ate kimchi dumplings.

2 of them so it's 6,000 won.

Oh okay. These are good.

Could you pack one kimchi dumpling for take-out?

Okay.

Are you okay?

- Look at me. - Ouch.

Are you out of your minds? Are you crazy?

You can't even punch straight?

That crazy girl just came out from nowhere.

You guys saw it.

Isn't she crazy?

Aren't you going back home?

If you're okay, let's go home.

Okay.

Where's your bag?

At the classroom.

Hey what? What?

You said to come after the trial exam.

You said it for yourself and disappeared.

A man's word is as good as a bond.

And what?

What do you mean what?

I think it was way too unfair.

Let's wrap this up clean and clear.

Okay.

How do you want to wrap this up?

You punk. What do you want to clean?

Look at that face before you speak.

Is your name, Jang Woo?

I'm Jang Guk.

- I'm Andong Jang. - And so what?

Which Jang are you?

I'm Indong Jang, okay?

- Which group? - What group? Girl group?

I don't know.

Hey we're all 3rd grades.

Why are you talking to us like that?

Oh my, you're driving me nuts.

I have nothing to do with you, so please stop.

Indong Jang is a gentlemen's family. What happened to you?

Oh come on, why are you bringing that up?

What's up with your manners dude?

That's what I'm saying, Andong Jang sister.

It's dangerous for you rushing in like that.

A noble maiden shouldn't do that.

The Jang family is a noble family.

Why're you so immature?

Punching like that to anyone.

So what?

Behave yourself.

What do you mean behave? What?

Don't you get it?

Oh okay.

I'm sorry.

Wow. This is amazing.

If you're sorry, don't make this an issue again.

It's none of your business, sister.

Oh he's calling her sister now.

If she's your sister, you should call us brother.

Stop it.

Hey, the teacher was looking for you.

Oh, Jun-su, go see her now. She must be quite mad now.

Mu-cheol, can you get my bag?

Oh, okay.

Hey!

Why're you coming?

- Jang Guk asked me to bring her bag. - You can't leave the two like that.

Didn't you just hear? He called her sister.

Let them figure their family issue for themselves.

Let's go now.

Hey hurry up. Let's go.

Hey let's go.

Why're you standing like that? Come here and sit.

Did you cool down a little?

I heard it all.

Why're you being so quiet?

I'm embarrassed.

It's not Jun-su's fault you know?

I have a younger brother too.

If something happens to him, it's all or nothing for me too.

And that So-ra girl or whatever.

If she's going about kissing here and there,

it's clear she's not worth it.

You should break up first. Like a man.

Hey Jang Woo.

Thanks for treating me as your sister.

See you again.

Ah!

Hamy.

Laundry.

Oh, this is tough.

Are you okay?

Is it you, Da-hae?

Why do you have your curtain's closed in the day? Are you tired?

You're acting different today.

Stop that nonsense.

Yeong-hui.

Stop it. What's that?

It's ice cream. Da-hae likes it.

Oh it's cold.

Are you crazy?

What are you doing?

Leave me alone.

What's wrong with you?

You don't know?

What?

You don't know why I'm doing this?

Honey.

Honey?

Oh my god.

So you're Da-hae's dad, and I'm her mom.

Aren't you embarrassed to Da-hae?

Your daughter is 3rd grade.

While you were cheating on me,

I was running around with your daughter here and there.

To the academies and private teachers, calling everywhere.

Money...

You think money is everything?

Wait.

What're you talking about?

I'm the one who should be angry, not you.

It's not something you can go over with by lying.

On what basis?

Oh you want proof? Okay.

Look at this. Look at this here.

This is proof. This is the proof.

You lousy bogus.

Get out. Get out of here!

- Honey. - Let me go!

Disgusting. Don't touch me.

Honey? Why am I your honey?

Go call honey to the bitch you were playing with.

I'm done. I don't want this.

Let's get divorced. Let's do it right now.

Yeong-hui.

What?

What's wrong with you? Are you sick?

Nothing. I have a headache.

If you have that on your lap, it's all going to melt.

Oh what am I doing?

- How's Hamy doing? - What?

Yes.

We're having World Cup, why didn't you bring her along?

She's your secretary working for you.

She doesn't seem to like football.

Hey, where did you put my suitcase?

In the living room. Why?

I want to change after shower.

- Should I get them for you? - No! Don't touch it.

You can take care of Da-hae.

I'm used to doing them myself. In the living room?

I'll have a shower.

Okay.

Oh my god, oh god.

We're almost there. I can go alone.

I'll walk you to your house.

It's okay.

I'm not okay.

Are you really okay? You don't have to go to hospital?

You're looking worse than before. Your parents will be surprised.

This is not looking good.

- Hello. - Hello.

Can I have a bruise cream?

What's all this?

Wait.

- Can you put some ice in here? - Okay.

- Here you go. - Thank you.

I'll do it.

Stay still.

Is it cold?

I can do it.

You can't see.

I can't breathe.

Breathe.

I told you I'll do it myself.

Yes mom.

Where are you?

At the library.

Dad's here. Let's have dinner together.

When are you coming?

I'll be going now.

How was the trial exam?

Let's talk when I'm there.

It's there.

Where?

That dumpling place.

Is the granny at the dumpling place, your grandmother?

Yeah, she's my maternal grandmother. You know her?

Yes, a little.

I've bought dumplings several times.

Oh I see.

Why?

Sorry Guk.

But they will be surprised when they see this.

Keep it this way for a couple days.

Okay. Just give me my bag.

Okay.

I'll get going.

Okay.

Aren't you going?

I'll go.

Why does he have that powder smell?

Maybe soap?

Can't receive call now. Connecting to voice mail...

Oh my god.

Hey, give me some sign when you come.

How do I look?

Pretty.

Of course. I paid a lot for that.

Oh, how did you do on the trial exam?

Mom, I have something to talk.

What?

What's up?

Are you busy?

- No I'm okay. Talk. - Well.

You have the uniform that Da-hae doesn't wear right?

Yes.

We bought it all again after she grew so quick.

Why?

There's a girl that transferred to Jun-su's class.

And she needs a uniform.

Since there's only a couple months left before graduation,

I was thinking maybe we can give her the ones that Da-hae doesn't wear.

But Da-hae doesn't like giving her things to other people.

Don't tell Da-hae.

She's not going to wear them anyways.

What's she going to do if she keeps them?

But why,

why do you care so much?

Cause of Jun-su. I'm the mother of the class head.

Okay, I'll give it to you tomorrow.

Jun-su will be going, send them along with Jun-su.

Oh right, ganjang gejang.

There's some a student have sent. I'll send it along.

Okay.

Give me the ganjang gejang quick.

I'll be late for class.

Sit down.

Yu Jun-su. Please be honest with me.

What?

I've done as you said.

But since it's Da-hae's uniform, she must be a girl.

Why are you trying to help her so much?

It's not that much.

Might as well give it to her ASAP.

You're lying.

Is she pretty?

No.

- Do you like her? - No.

Well, if she's not pretty and you don't like her,

don't you think it's a bit weird?

- It's not weird. - It is weird.

Tell me.

Well, to be honest...

Okay.

Some feelings the moment you saw her?

Oh my, not at all, mom.

There's the dumpling place in one of our buildings.

What building? Inside the market?

Yes, there's the dumpling place at the building by the five way market.

Yes.

She's the granddaughter of that family.

Oh my.

What?

Well I see, but still,

why do you have to go through all this for her?

She transferred to my class and she's the granddaughter of the dumpling place.

Am I doing too much?

She doesn't know Da-hae too well, so I'm bridging them in between.

Well, you've got a point there.

Okay son.

Go get your bag. I'll get them ready.

Okay.

- Hello. - Hello, ma'am.

Okay.

- Here you go. - Here you go too.

Thank you.

Okay, tell her that I'm thankful too.

Okay.

Oh Da-hae? She's not here.

I heard dad was here, so wanted to say hi.

Oh okay. Wait.

What're you up to honey?

Oh, I'm drying my hair.

Hey Yu Jun-su. It's been a while.

Oh sir, how have you been?

I'm fine.

Not much left for the exam.

Yeah.

Take care of Da-hae too.

She's good for herself.

Of course. She's my daughter.

Oh my.

I've raised her with all my efforts you know.

I'm not giving her to you, Ju Cheol-su.

I'll get going. You don't have to come out.

Okay, bye Jun-su.

Bye.

What happened to your eyes?

Don't come near mom.

It's eye disease.

What?

This is very contagious. Don't touch me.

I'll do it.

Are you sick?

No, go on and eat.

Did you go to the hospital?

I'll visit tomorrow, grandma.

Oh my, you don't have time for this.

It's the worst time to have an eye disease.

I told you clean your hands often, you clumsy girl.

Stop it.

She can help it anyways, why give her such a hard time?

Cause she's making me angry. Please take care of yourself.

Careful not to spread them over your body.

Okay.

Excuse me.

I'll check.

Hey.

What's up?

Come to that place we were at by 10.

That place?

The ice cream place. Bye.

Wait, what is it?

Hey, Jun-su.

Miss you? Good morning?

I love you?

I love you? Oh my god.

Mom.

What're you doing?

Oh well.

What's going on?

Nothing, I'm just having trouble getting some sleep.

It's not even 10. You normally sleep later.

Well, I'm tired after taking care of your father coming back.

I wanted to drink some and sleep well.

If I used glasses, I'll then have to wash them.

Mom, I didn't say anything.

Oh, are you hungry? You want some snacks?

No, I just wanted some water.

Oh okay. Have some and go back in.

Don't stay till too late. Okay?

Okay.

Why aren't you answering? Is your class over?

Sorry, on my way home. Good night. See you tomorrow.

Oh it's a uniform. Where did you get this?

It's not new.

- Is it okay? - Of course it's okay.

Actually, thank you.

How much do I have to pay you?

What?

Aren't you selling this?

Ha ha ha.

You're so weird.

No way, is this free?

- Yes, it's free. - Yes!

She's not here either. Hun, do you know where your sister went?

She said she'll be out for a minute.

Where?

She'll be back.

She was studying till just now, and went out for a minute.

This late?

It's not Busan, she can be lost.

She's old enough to get married in the old days.

Well if you think about it, she can even have a baby.

But that's old days.

3rd grades shouldn't be wondering around like this.

Hun, go and brush your teeth and go to sleep.

Can't I sleep here?

Are you looking honey? We've moved.

I'll make sure our kids grow up well.

Don't worry.

You wanted me to sing.

Wasn't it similar? It's Su-bong's 'A million roses'.

Oh yeah. The original was by Alla Pugacheva.

Right, right.

It's a Russian folk song.

Well whatever.

But why do you like this song so much?

It was my father's favorite when he was alive.

Oh... Really?

But I have one question.

What?

What is that thing you're playing?

That thing that looks like a pipe.

Pipe?

You're saying the same thing as my mother.

This is Irish whistle.

Irish whistle.

Is that what's it called? It sounds like a name of a coffee.

That's same too.

What?

You're talking just like my mom.

If you keep on laughing like that, I'll get angry.

You're cute.

Although you do some weird things.

What do you mean cute?

You yourself smell like a baby.

What?

You smell like a baby.

I smell like a baby?

Honey.

This is the chrysanthemum tea we dried last year. Isn't the smell so good?

Aren't you driving today?

I don't know. Both my kids asked me not to come.

Call them. It's already past 11.

At most, they would go to a game room.

At most?

Oh you...

It's a very important time for them.

That will ruin their heart.

- Even more, Jun-su is... - Vice principal.

How can they study for 24 hours?

They should rest their mind. Think about something else.

It's more efficient that way.

See how Da-hae's mom does to her daughter.

What? Why're you brining up my friend here?

Cause you two are friends but so different.

Are you finished?

What're you doing? Aren't you going to open?

Oh, okay.

You were talking about our kids till now, and you're not going to see them?

It's Su-han.

Sorry, I'm sorry Jeong-han.

Sorry, Beom-suk.

Oh my, you smell alcohol.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Oh my god! Come here!

Sorry, I was drinking... a bit today.

It's not a bit. You drank a lot.

Beom-suk.

Why? Oh my...

Are you my brother-in-law or my son? Oh my god.

Can't you stand up straight?

You go in honey. I'll take care of him.

You're the sister-in-law I like the most in the world.

What? Was there something that made you upset?

I don't want to live anymore.

Shut up!

Oh my! You're making me shiver.

Please don't shout in this situation.

I'm done with Yeo-ok.

Men and women meet and break up all the time.

You be quite too.

You've broken up multiple times already. You can just make up with her again.

No, this time it's different.

She's tired of our family. All our family.

And... Me too.

She must have been mad. What can't she say when she's mad?

My sister must've visited her recently.

Why are you guys all doing this?

Well no, why did you guys do that to her without even asking me?

Okay, okay. We can talk tomorrow after you sober up.

She's a poor woman.

Look at your lousy self. Look at you!

You're already 30 and you don't know what you're doing, you don't have a dream,

no courage and no passion for your future!

Honey.

Stop it right now. Where do you think you are?

Oh honey, your shouting is even worse.

Just go in. Let me take care of him.

Oh you.

We're back.

Oh great, come here.

- Uncle! - Help him here.

Uncle, wake up uncle.

Oh my nephews are here.

Oh, Jun-su, don't come near here.

You shouldn't be stepping on this.

Can't you just let him do what he wants to do?

What?

What's wrong with you tonight?

You're going to get a side blow from this fight.

Go up. Now.

Good night.

Is he okay?

He's asleep.

Why can't you pack your bags a day before?

Get yourself ready quick!

When did you come in yesterday?

I was back right away.

You were asleep, so I didn't wake you up.

Aren't you scared?

What do you know about Seoul, going out so late?

I was just at the playground next by.

Anyways, don't go out this late.

Okay.

What is that uniform?

It's our school's uniform. Someone gave me.

How is it?

It doesn't look so old. It looks like it's new.

Yeah. The class head gave this to me.

I'll get going.

If it was the class head,

was it a guy?

Oh, you didn't answer.

Hun, are you ready yet?

Hamy?

Mom, isn't she Hamy there?

That girl in front of that hotel. She looks like Hamy.

Is this Platz hotel?

I'm looking for a guest.

Hamy.

You're going to hurt each other's feeling.

For friends or families, there's always a girl when guys fight.

Why fight if he already broke up?

So you're satisfied?

Satisfied that uncle broke up with that woman?

Yes I'm satisfied.

Mom used to say relations,

doesn't always end up as they wish.

Just give me my clothes.

I'm going to be late tonight.

I have dinner plans with the executives.

With executives?

Does that mean that you'll become the principal this time?

I don't have any desire.

I still do. How many years have it been?

Are you having trouble eating? You need more money?

It's not that.

But, people have desires for honor.

Why you?

Vicarious satisfaction.

When you become the principal, I promised my friends,

that I'll buy dinner at the Ritz hotel buffet.

I guess it'll happen soon.

Really?

Are you sure this time?

I'll take care of uncle myself.

Don't drink too much tonight.

Bye.

Ma'am, could you make some honey water?

Thanks.

Mother, I'm still serving your late son at my age.

If you see what I'm doing,

please help my son, Jun-su go to university this year.

Are you up?

I'm going in.

Should I leave the honey water here?

Beom-suk, I'm sorry. I'm going for a trip.

I don't know how long the trip will be.

Please tell my brother I'll be okay.

Oh my, you're going to flip over the whole house.

Oh, how long will it be, this time?

Oh what a headache.

Why did he leave this here? Is he a teenager?

Why can't he just live with that woman?

Oh, wait a sec sir.

Welcome.

Should I get you some dumplings?

Yes, can I order 10 boxes for takeout?

Of course, please give me a minute.

Please take special care, it's for our staffs.

Staffs?

The people who works with me.

Oh okay.

It's all ready, sir.

I've packed one box more for service.

Oh, thank you.

Bye.

Good-bye.

Who is he to buy so much?

Today I'll tell you what Goethe, who wrote Faust said.

If you keep on holding on to your dream, will there be a time when it comes true or not?

- There will. - There will.

Okay, that's it for today.

Attention.

Bow.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Jun-su, let's have a talk.

His dad must be sick a lot.

Why? What's the disease?

His cancer relapsed.

I'm visiting the hospital after class. You want to come along?

Okay. Let's go to the cafeteria.

Are you hungry?

A little.

It's on me.

You gave me this uniform. I'll buy you bread for return.

Something wrong with your lungs? You always laugh when I talk.

Guk, you look even prettier.

- What do you want to eat, Jun-su? - I'll go with whatever you want.

Oh come on. It's on me. Tell me what you want.

- Wow! - Ah!

Are you okay? I'm sorry.

12 Years of Promise

Hey! What did you just say?

They went into a fight in the classroom.

What am I going to do with you guys?

I'm looking for a guest. It's been a while, Hamy.

What's your relation with Ju Cheol-su?

I had a great time today. I'll try to stop by once in a while.

The famous Yu Jun-su and Ju Da-hae in Daehan high school.

They two were couples since kindergarten.
