(Noryangjin Station)

(Episode 1)

One bulgogi rice, please.

Noryangjin...

is full of youths preparing for their future,

it's a place where lights never go out.

Energetic and ambitious youths realize their passion here.

This place is the hope of the country.

That's all nonsense.

This place is hell with no exit.

Here, you play a fierce zero-sum game...

which only a few lucky ones get to escape.

Miserable worker ants' dreams and youth are taken as security.

It's a total nightmare.

I grabbed it first.

I was faster.

My hand touched it first.

Mine touched it first.

I picked it up first.

What are you talking about? I grabbed it first.

I was faster.

- I was faster. - I was faster.

Ma'am.

Rather than these pads,

do you see those over there?

I recommend those ones personally.

They were released last month.

They have bigger wings, which makes them easier to handle.

With superior adhesive strength, they've become very popular.

Forget it. Let me just pay.

Okay. You picked these pads.

I'll ring them up. It's 4 dollars and 90 cents.

You're paying by credit card. Just a second.

Here's your receipt. Hold on.

Products like this...

should go in a black plastic bag. How's that?

Girls deserve extra care.

What's wrong with you?

Thank you. Come again.

If you were her, would you come again?

Look at this.

Look how dirty the floor is.

Did I tell you...

to shine it or not?

I did mop it, but...

Hey, those honey buns.

They're popular. Instead of displaying all at once,

did I tell you to display just a few at a time...

or not?

- Kids came and... - Goodbye.

- Come again. Thank you. - Thank you.

Come here.

Are the honey buns yours?

Why do you show off your generosity with my honey buns?

Let go of me.

Gosh.

Look at you.

Are you glaring at me right now?

Am I not even allowed to glare at you with my own eyes?

And why do you talk so much?

I'm bleeding.

What are you glaring at?

Look at you. Keep your eyes down, will you?

You brat.

Are you serious?

If you pass the exam, I'll eat my hat.

You don't have a girlfriend, do you?

You pathetic idiot. You're too pathetic...

to have a girlfriend.

- Welcome. - Hello.

What's with you?

How dare you show up five minutes late?

- I'm sorry. - I'll deduct it from your wage.

You're supposed to get paid tomorrow, right? Be careful.

What do you mean?

My ex-colleague didn't get paid anything.

Last month, my wage got cut down by half for a minor mistake.

I'm sure he'll pay me.

Hey, why didn't you empty the liquid container?

- Wash it before you leave. - Okay.

What are you looking at? Hurry up and change.

Pull yourselves together, you brats.

What? He'll eat his hat?

Once I pass the exam,

I'll punish that evil employer in the name of justice.

Gosh.

Right.

(Job openings)

3846322.

3846322. Please.

Please.

(Police civil service exam result)

318... 320...

321... 3...

(Pass Goshiwon)

- The person is not picking up. - Why isn't he picking up?

What is he doing?

So In Sung.

In Sung.

Hey, In Sung.

(Office)

- Give me the key to In Sung's room. - Why?

Right now.

- What are you going to do? - I'm going to do something.

Hey.

In Sung looks slow,

but he's soft-hearted.

I've been always worried about him.

Why doesn't it work?

No. This is not okay.

In Sung.

I thought you had a bad thought.

You're not the only one who didn't pass the exam.

I failed, too, as your friend. You're so faint-hearted.

After failing so many times,

it's about time you got used to it.

You can cry as much as you want after you pass the exam.

You're like a child.

I...

got dumped.

(Nine hours earlier)

Triangle kimbaps.

Have some milk first.

We didn't have many banana milks left,

but I hid one just about to expire in the back...

and took it out as soon as the expiration date passed.

You're addicted to banana milk.

Aren't you hungry?

I saw a video of someone eating a triangle kimbap in one bite.

I'll show you. It's so cool. Watch.

See?

And now...

Isn't that awesome? Why aren't you eating?

It's okay to eat a few days after the expiration date.

Let's break up.

What?

Let's break up.

So Ra. Hey.

Hey.

So Ra.

So Ra. So Ra.

So Ra.

What is it? Did I do something wrong?

How can you eat right now? Aren't you angry?

The test?

It's not my first time failing it.

It's okay.

But I'll pass for sure next time.

I have a good feeling about it.

I'm so sick of it.

So Ra.

- So Ra. - Stop it!

You loser.

So Ra.

No. So Ra!

So Ra!

That tastes so good.

That witch.

How could she dump you just because you failed? Even if she wanted to,

the proper etiquette is to wait 2 or 3 days.

Or after a hot... Final trip together...

or something.

Let's see how well your life turns out!

(Sleep, and you will dream. Study, and your dream will come true.)

Good riddance!

It's okay. Good riddance.

(Teacher Certification Exam Political Science)

Good riddance!

Breaking up was the best thing you've done so far.

Go! Go!

How could she dump you the day you failed? She's awful.

Like she won't fail?

She fails all the time, too.

Here, eat. Don't just drink.

If you get sick, you can't become a cop.

Forget it. Forget it. You need special attention.

Put this on. Let's go.

I have to work in the morning.

You are such a prude. You can't work on a day like this.

This is why you get dumped...

by girls like Wang So Ra!

Fine. I deserve to be dumped.

You poor thing.

Let's focus on our youth just for tonight.

Let's go...

to Hawaii.

Enjoy.

A man shouldn't cry.

Stop crying. Stop.

In Sung! Cheer up, baby

Be strong

A girl can't give her heart too easily

You'll end up liking me more

I'll act cool

Don't say you're sorry You're making me feel more pathetic

Kill me with your red lips and leave

I'm okay

Please smile as if nothing happened

So that I can remember

So that I can picture your face in my mind

Your eyes, nose, lips

Your hands that touched me

Down to your fingernails

Our love burned down

Just like the fire that died

I will call it "memories"

My evil boss was right.

I failed the exam and now, I don't have a girlfriend, either.

Fine. I'm the biggest loser in the universe.

(Goshiwon)

Hey. What happened?

Hey. You're behind two months on your rent.

I didn't want to stress you out until the results came out,

but what can I do? I had do follow my boss' orders.

Even still.

Sorry, In Sung. I can't lose my job here.

Yes, but you know.

Wait. But...

(4 rules: variety, maintenance, friendliness, cleanliness)

Good going. Just great.

Why don't you just move in?

Get over here.

Get over here, punk.

How dare you not show up for work?

- Wait. Wait. - Hey.

How could you not show up for work without calling?

Were you trying to make me pay for being mean?

You're fired. Get lost.

Then...

pay me for my work until now.

Your work? I'm glad you brought that up.

Do you know how much of a loss you caused? Want to see the log?

Did you clean properly or order products correctly?

Sales dropped and losses went up. Get lost.

Even still...

You're dumb, but I hired you because you seemed like a good kid,

but you're a total scammer.

Hey, punk. How many times did you not show up to work or come late?

And who said you could eat foods that expire?

You should be grateful that I don't sue you.

Get lost. Now!

- Get out. Get out. - Wait.

But...

That punk.

What are you looking at? Clean, will you?

Okay.

These useless punks.

(So Ra)

(So Ra)

(The wind that's blowing now blows for you.)

(It's the wish of someone thinking of you.)

They have no style whatsoever.

They have no shame.

What are you doing?

What? Nothing.

(Part Time Jobs)

Awesome.

They pay 800 dollars for 2 nights and 3 days' work.

A job requiring perseverance? Whatever. You're so out of shape.

You can't run 100m in under 15 seconds.

How can you not do a single pull-up?

That's your problem.

Don't you know your body is a gift from your parents?

How dare you treat it recklessly and participate in a medical experiment?

I can't mooch off you in your tiny room forever.

Mister! Please kick the ball here!

Okay.

Sonaldo is about to take a free kick!

What did you just do?

I didn't have my glasses on, that's why.

It's harder to miss the ball.

Even if you pass the written exam, you're not physically fit enough.

You're not fit enough to be a cop. Criminals will catch you instead.

You may pass the physical fitness test, but you'll fail the interview.

You don't look like a cop. You look like a criminal.

- Let's pass the written exam first. - Let's pass the written exam first.

It's hot.

You're right. It's still hot.

Shall we get some coffee?

Ice cream.

Ice cream?

Excuse me.

We'll come to have barbecue soon.

We must pass in order to survive.

Otherwise, we'll die without even dating.

I miss So Ra.

- Please take him away. - Just a minute.

- My feelings - Sir.

Wow. Look how great that uniform looks.

I'm jealous. When can we wear a uniform like that?

He stole my bag!

Stop right there!

Hey! No!

Stop right there!

Are you...

hurt?

In Sung. Thanks.

You're not a loser.

More importantly, I'm not sick of you.

- Isn't that Gong Moo? - Please tell me your name.

- Hey. - Goodness.

I'm sorry. You jerk. Stop drinking so much.

- I'll be back. - Gong Moo!

Hey!

I heard you were assigned here. I guess it was true.

This town is under my control,

so let me know if anything happens.

You never date and just studied, and you passed and now,

you're in uniform. You're so cool.

Did he just pass on girlfriends?

He didn't share notes or save seats for others.

- He was so cold. - You're right.

If not,

I'd be like you guys.

- Is it going well? - What?

Life isn't that easy.

Work hard at everything.

Number 23. Number 23.

I'll head over now.

Let's meet up. I'll buy dinner, okay?

You guys.

He's so cool. So cool.

How is he cool? He's still a pompous jerk.

At least he seems more relaxed now that he's a cop.

I heard Gong Moo...

a six-month lease on a studio in this neighborhood.

A six-month lease? Wow. That's awesome.

Wow. I'm behind even on my monthly rent.

He doesn't compare to you, punk.

Look at him offering to buy dinner.

But will you really not do it?

- What? - The medical experiment.

I will not!

Let's do it.

Do you smoke?

What? No.

- It makes me cough, so... - How often do you drink a week?

- I drink when I'm upset, so... - Any chronic illnesses?

Stuffy nose and sinusitis.

I may have a slipped disk, too.

But lately, I feel like...

I may have hemorrhoids.

When I use the bathroom,

it's not quite poop, but... You know what I mean?

- Is that okay? - Yes.

Please do not move.

- This may hurt a little. - Okay.

Sign the consent form.

Sign here.

(So In Sung)

You will take the drug three times a day, once with each meal,

for the next three days.

We will take your blood sample one hour after you take the drug.

You may not leave for the next three days.

You may not eat anything other than what we give you.

It's been 30 minutes since you ate.

Please take the drug you've been given.

We will take a blood sample exactly one hour from now.

You may not move after you eat.

Sit with your back and legs straight.

The nurses will take care of the rest.

Follow the nurses' instructions. Any questions?

I won't take any questions.

Open your mouth.

Hold on.

Come on, Mom. Don't worry.

You know I'm weak.

Sure, some people donate blood for free movie tickets.

So Ra?

She has no time to watch a movie.

Yes.

Now? I'm at the library.

The lights will be turned off.

I have to go.

Gosh.

We've turned ourselves into guinea pigs for our dreams.

Or maybe we were forced to turn into guinea pigs...

and are just holding on to our dreams.

The person is not picking up. Please leave a message.

(So Ra)

It's not very likely, but if there are any side-effects...

hurry to the hospital.
