THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION,

WHICH IS NOT BASED ON REAL CHARACTERS OR EVENTS.

Oh, hello.

Is this Gilsung Park's phone?

I'm not a telemarketer.

I don't know if you remember me, but I'm Jisoo, Jisoo Oh.

Yes, that's right.

It's because...

I was wondering if you spoke to my dad recently.

Well, it's just that...

I miss him so much.

I see.

Jung-gu, Ulsan.

EXTRACURRICULAR

What the heck? Where are you going?

Hey, this isn't yours.

This isn't yours, you jackass.

Damn it.

Shit.

Give me my phone.

I didn't bring it.

Why won't you give it back?

What can you do with it?

Blackmail.

What on earth do you want?

Let me in on what you're doing. I want to make money too.

Seriously, shit...

Hey, didn't you like my idea?

I showed you those judo kids.

They look dope. I'll hook you up with them.

Stop your crazy talk.

What? If this is crazy talk,

what's everything you've been doing?

What?

Are you uncomfortable selling guys or something

because you're a guy as well?

Why you... shit.

You're going to your dad, right?

To get your money.

Where is he? I'll go with you.

Why would you go there?

You lost your money because of me. I'll help you get it back.

- Hey. - What?

- Just bring me my phone. - Take my offer.

Don't give me that cock and bull story.

Hey.

Do you even have money for the bus?

Hey, you're dead broke, aren't you?

Right? You're dead broke.

Hey, you broke punk.

I know you're dead broke.

Wow.

Wow.

Where did you learn that?

YouTube.

YouTube?

What the hell?

Well, we got in.

What's next?

Damn it.

I guess your dad hasn't run away yet.

His clothes and stuff are still here.

Are you going to wait?

I have to.

It was about 60,000,000 won, right?

If it took you a year and a half to save that,

that means...

you saved about 3,333,333 won a month.

Let's get more people and aim for five million per month.

How much did you pay the puppet boss?

Don't talk about him like that.

- Then what should I call him? - We're partners.

We're equal.

It seems like he doesn't even know the pimp's face.

Partner, my ass.

Pimp? Who?

- Me? - If not, what?

I run a security service.

Security...

What?

Hey, look.

I get requests from clients. I protect them from physical harm.

I manage their clients for them. I coordinate pickups.

- How can you call that a pimp? - You are a pimp, to a T.

I'm talking to a wall.

Hey.

Anyway, I get it. Fine.

You should think about what I suggested before.

Let's make money together.

I don't care if you're a pimp or a security service provider.

Why do you want to do this?

For the money, what else?

Exactly.

Why do you need money?

Isn't your family loaded?

Get some more sleep. You seem tired. It's been a while.

Hey, wait. Hold on.

Hey, you.

You must be his girlfriend.

Right?

Where's my money?

Hey, you're pretty. Why are you with Jisoo?

He's got nothing...

Hey, what is that?

What... hold on, wait.

Hey.

Where's my money?

I can't feel my tongue, so I can't...

Where's my money?

How dare you yell at your dad?

WELCOME TO HAPPY BIT THE MOST SECURE WEBSITE FOR CRYPTOCURRENCY

The login process is so complicated every single time.

Oh, my gosh, you scared me.

What is this?

Hold on, this...

I'm in. Look.

Okay, so this...

Mm, well,

I got some inside information recently.

This is that.

This is called "Doolycoin".

It's what...

- the big party got into. - What?

You idiot.

- What is he talking about? - You're so ignorant.

Okay, look.

You see, it looks like it's crawling on the bottom?

But by the end of the month, it'll jump way up.

Get it?

It must be a new cryptocurrency.

This looks like

a dine-and-dash scam.

Don't tell me...

you dumped his money into this.

Why not? Of course, I did.

How much did you put in?

All in.

Don't worry.

Huh?

JUNGJIN OH'S PROFIT AND LOSS: -91.10%

What's this? What does this mean?

Your dad blew 91.1 percent of your money.

What?

JUNGJIN OH'S PROFIT AND LOSS: -91.30%

Make that 91.3 percent.

No, no. This... Well, it's...

This is a bit worse than I thought, but this, this is all part of a plan.

Hey, what are you...

- Hey, what are you doing? - Saving what I can.

Shit, no. They're just trying to get small investors to sell.

Don't be stupid!

You don't have a clue, you little punk!

Give it back! We need to salvage what little we can.

- Let go. - Let go of it!

Shit, no!

Shit!

Shit, look what you did!

The mousepad.

No, please.

Why did you break this? Why?

Why did you break it?

Who will pay for this? This was so expensive.

No, no...

What will you do about this? I'm going crazy.

Gosh, what the...

Hey.

Where are you going?

Where are you going?

Where are you going? Tell me!

Home.

What?

What's this? Are you giving up?

Hey.

You need to get at least some of it back.

Threaten him or torture him.

Will you just let that bastard off?

He's my dad.

What do you want me to do?

What about everything you've done?

You're just going to give it all up?

Aren't you upset? Doesn't that piss you off?

Then what do you want me to do?

Don't.

Don't say anything, not a word.

What did I say?

Everything you say is part of a scheme. Every single word.

So don't say anything to me.

ULSAN TO SEOUL

Let's check. There they are.

Over there.

Let's go eat.

Is it good?

What are you trying to do?

Why aren't you taking any jobs lately?

I told you.

We're taking a break indefinitely.

We're going to hit menopause if we rest any longer.

How long will that break last?

Until Uncle says it's over.

Something happened to him?

I don't know.

Was he arrested?

- Is he on the run? - I don't know.

What is that?

Count it. See if that will do.

We'll find the customers.

Just stay close if there's a psycho,

and pick us up on time.

We need insurance if we want to do our jobs.

Don't make things complicated.

What is your relationship with him?

I just don't get it.

What's the difference whether you get it from Uncle or from us?

Money is money, isn't it?

Please scan your card. Insufficient balance.

Insufficient balance.

Insufficient balance.

Jisoo.

We haven't received your payment for next month.

Is everything okay?

Well...

I won't be going to the academy for the time being.

What? Why not?

I was told to skip next month.

By whom?

My dad.

I don't get it.

Your midterm exams are coming up.

Yes.

I know, but I plan to focus on the textbooks for a while.

You shouldn't rely too much on what they teach you in school.

I know.

Anyway, will you be back the month after?

Well...

You haven't given up on college, have you?

Uh... No, I haven't.

Then tell your dad

to make sure he sends the payment next month, okay?

Your class is full until the end of the year.

All right?

APRIL 7, MR. LEE

CHECKING IN. ARE WE WORKING TODAY?

Sloths are very lazy animals.

They move so slowly.

APRIL 9, MR. LEE CHECKING IN. ARE WE WORKING TODAY?

That it is amazing that they are still in existence and have not gone extinct.

He was shocked.

APRIL 10, MR. LEE CHECKING IN. ARE WE WORKING TODAY?

Why was he shocked?

Once they stop moving,

they may stay still

in the same position for days on end.

I was astonished.

However, due to such slow movements,

they are not easily seen by predators, and they can continue to live in hiding.

Give me that for a minute.

We were dispatched here around 1:00...

Okay, here it is.

That's her!

The girl with the funny thing dangling from her bag.

What about her?

- What did she do wrong? - Well...

What do you think a young girl like her did at a motel?

Especially in broad daylight.

Are you saying young kids

can't make love in broad daylight?

Gosh, you are much more conservative than you seem.

If she were here with her boyfriend,

they would've gone up together, holding hands.

But she went up alone.

She left alone, too.

Do you plan to accuse everyone who goes to motels alone of prostitution?

Well, you know.

Is it common for young people like her to come here during the day?

Well, it's usually older people during those hours,

wearing hiking clothes.

You said there's no camera on the eighth floor, right?

My gosh, the guests would freak out if a motel had a lot of cameras.

That means there's no way to check which room she went into.

Sir, please email this to us.

- Sure. - I can tell at a glance that she's a teen.

Here's your food.

Yes, noodles. It looks so yummy.

Thanks, Minhee.

Okay, Hubby. Enjoy.

How is it? Is it good?

I want a bite.

Okay, tune up like this.

YOU HAVE FIVE MINUTES LEFT

- Minhee, extend. - What?

- Hurry up. I just started. Extend it. - What?

- Excuse me. - Yes?

Please extend his time.

- For the full 10,000 won? - Yes.

- Hey, Kwakki. - Hold on.

- Hey, look at me. - What?

If I were a broke bitch with no money, would you dump me?

Yes.

- Okay, where are you? - Gosh!

Don't give me that crap. Answer me for real.

What's your problem? What is it?

Tell me. What do you like about me?

Why are you dating me?

Your tits?

You fucking prick! Give me a proper answer!

Okay, okay. I like everything.

I fucking love everything about you.

There's no heart in your answer.

Shit, we're just dating. Why do you need my heart?

You son of a bitch, listen to this asshole talk.

Hey, you sound like you don't really like me.

Are you dating me for my money?

Obviously, I'm dating you partly for your money.

And partly because I like your tits.

I'd be lying if I denied it.

You jackass, are you kidding me?

What about you?

If I weren't the top dog in our grade, would you be dating me?

Would you be dating me if I were a fucking loser?

Okay, I'm getting out.

Jump.

Hello, I've been waiting for your call.

Please resume business.

Please report your current location.

I'm 15 minutes from the standby location.

Are you able to mobilize right now?

Are you able to make a deposit right now?

Repeat please.

I haven't received this month's pay yet.

You know that, correct?

Yes, of course I do.

I will start working again as soon as you make the deposit.

Is there a problem?

No, for the deposit,

please wait a short while.

Please prepare to resume business in the meantime and stand by.

We are ready.

How long should I wait?

I will notify you later on. I'll call you.

Understood.

How long do you plan to idle away your time?

When do we start working again?

Once I get my pay.

Why are you here?

I came to ask when we'll be working again. Why else would I be here?

Hey.

Can you even work?

Hey, mister.

Look.

Take a good look. Do I look like a crazy bitch?

I'm all better now. I told you.

Why are you so obsessed with this work?

It's for the money, obviously.

Why do you need money?

What's it to you?

Youngsin Seo.

That's your aunt's name, right?

Both parents

disappeared after the divorce.

Ever since then,

you've been living with your aunt.

Your aunt and uncle both have normal jobs.

They have a car

and a three-bedroom apartment with only a year left on the mortgage.

Which of these is the reason

you need to make money?

You ran a background check on me?

Quit this work if you can.

Don't act like you care. It doesn't suit you.

Did Uncle say he's uncomfortable working with me?

I'm the one who's uncomfortable.

I think...

you've almost reached your limit.

Psychologically.

Once you pass that limit,

the responsibility goes to...

I said I'm fine!

Stop treating me like some crazy bitch.

You're so annoying.

MIDTERM EXAMS D-7

Yes, come in.

Hi, Minhee. What's up?

Can you fill out an early leave form for me, please?

What's the reason?

My period.

Okay, bullshit.

You used that excuse last week.

I'm just dizzy and stuff.

I don't feel well. Why don't you believe me?

I believe you don't feel well.

It's the period I don't believe.

I hear you're a regular at the infirmary these days.

Who said that?

The nurse. Who else?

She says you look as pale as a ghost at times.

Are you anemic?

Well...

I think so.

EARLY LEAVE PASS

Mr. Cho, the vice-principal is looking for you.

I know.

- Hey, Gyuri. - Yes?

Put my seal on the early leave pass.

Okay.

Make sure to bring a doctor's note this time, okay?

- Reason for leaving early? - I'm sick.

Period?

Oh, no, I don't see his seal.

He must have taken it with him.

Shit.

Why don't you just wait here?

He went to a teachers' meeting. He'll be back soon.

You're dating Kitae, right?

Tell him to leave my boyfriend alone.

Why are you picking a fight?

I'm not. I feel bad for Jisoo. That's all.

He's dealing with a lot of crap right now.

Then take care of your oh-so-great boyfriend.

That prick Kwakki doesn't listen to a fucking thing I say.

That prick Oji doesn't listen to me either.

All guys are the same.

Come to think of it,

didn't you say someone stole your 100-day gift for Kitae?

- What's it to you? - I heard it was really expensive.

No fucking kidding.

Are you trying to humiliate me?

No.

I can tell you genuinely like him.

You must have worked like hell to buy that.

I wonder if I could do that for my man.

Well, our 22nd-day anniversary is coming up soon.

Twenty-second day? Shit, you're just babies.

What's your part-time job?

I'm a waitress.

How is it?

I don't know. I'm thinking about quitting.

Why? Is your boss a prick?

No, that's not it.

The store may be shutting down.

They're shutting down? Why?

The boss didn't get paid by his boss or something.

Something like that.

I don't know. It's too complicated.

Jisoo Oh.

Face forward, come on.

Okay, you're done. Go.

Next, Mingi Guk.

There's a lot today.

So let me know if you can't work overtime.

Yes, sir.

Come this way.

Put it down carefully.

Whatever it is, no.

I told you to keep it.

I won't take anything from you.

Why did you buy all this crap then?

You raise it. Don't kill it.

You wimp, you can't even take a handout!

"He's my dad."

That's the bullshit you said

after losing your life savings, nuts.

Hey.

What?

Why are you bringing that up now?

Are you a pushover?

How could you not say anything and just leave like a moron?

Then what was I supposed to do?

Huh?

Should I beat him up or kill him? My own dad, huh?

Oh, so did you magnanimously forgive him? Are you Jesus?

What are you hoping for?

Do you think that asshole will fucking repent and change

and beg you for forgiveness? Will that resurrect your fucking family?

Your idea is fucking cringy.

Hey, has he ever given you a single penny to help you out?

He doesn't think of you as his son at all.

Shit.

SCORE: 923

A new record! You're awesome.

Congratulations.

- Take this. - What is that?

It said, "Congratulations." Take it.

Take it.

Take this to the puppet boss and get back to work.

What? Hey, how did you...

Hey.

What is all this?

I fenced some stuff

and took my allowance savings.

That's not what I mean. Why are you giving this to me?

You'll go under without that.

We're partners now.

What?

I'm not giving it to you for free.

Hand over my shares.

Shares of what?

Shares of your business, of course.

Start the business again

and call the judo guys you met last time.

I'm sure some of them will accept.

So easy.

What was that?

It's so easy for you.

You buy everything with money.

Hey, I don't need it.

Hey, don't give me that crap. You need it!

I won't take your money.

Hey, you punk.

How much must I give for you to let me in?

Give me a number.

Do you find it fun?

What?

My life looks fucking fun to you, right?

That was it?

So Old Man won't take our money?

How long should we work without protection?

They want us to just wait.

Then eventually, they'll call us.

It's not like they work alone. It's fucking ridiculous.

Put that back on.

- What a waste. - Whatever.

Why does she have a long face?

- Why are you here so late? - What?

I said to come early today, bitch.

Get your act together.

What? You're always late, too.

So what?

He didn't say why we're taking a break?

I don't know. Those sons of bitches are so fucking mysterious.

Shit, I should report them to the labor department.

Those pricks.

Maybe they're losing interest.

Uncle, too.

What do you mean?

They've been doing sloppy work lately,

including that time with Minhee.

That's right. Mr. Lee didn't even show up that time.

It was his day off, but still.

Hey, sit over there.

Guys.

Do you want to switch insurance companies?

No.

- What? - I won't.

Seo Minhee.

Sit up.

Say that again. What?

I won't work without Mr. Lee.

Why not?

Just because it's uncomfortable.

And why is that?

I don't know.

There must be a reason. Give it to me straight!

I just don't want to!

Why are you dying to sell your body?

Are you in heat or something?

Hey.

Minhee's out.

Pardon?

Does it have anything to do

with changing your mind about transferring schools?

No, I'm just a bit tired.

Why are you tired?

Is it from studying?

Are you working or something lately?

You're so frustrating. Say something.

I need to know in order to help you.

I never asked for help.

- What? - After all,

you have no way of helping me.

Are things really bad with your dad these days?

Do you even have friends you can vent to about your dad?

Excluding me. I'm a teacher, so I have to stay within my boundaries.

No, I have no friends.

What about Gyuri?

You've been hanging out together.

I can't hang out with someone like her.

- Why not? - Just...

She and I are too different.

Really?

You look the same to me.

- She and I? - Yes.

In what way?
