I need to talk...

Give me a lottery ticket.

I had a really good dream last night.

Sir, sorry but we don't sell them after 8:00pm.

I came in here before eight. Give me one now.

Sir, your watch must be wrong.

Hey, are you looking down on me because I'm unemployed?

Next, please.

I got screwed by the President, for trusting him in investment.

You lose me one million here. You fuck!

You son of a bitch, you pushed me, didn't you?

No, no I didn't!

- Yes, you did! - No, I didn't.

Dad, help me, just one more time.

In this shitty economy, you keep coming for more money?

That's why we need to boost domestic consumption.

What?

- I need advance pay. - Advance pay?

Why?

I need it for something.

For a cosmetic surgery?

Yes.

You don't need it.

I need it for tutoring.

Then work harder.

Kids these days only think about money.

You too, pull yourself together.

Fill it up.

You'd look prettier with that surgery.

I know a good doctor. Wanna go?

Say something. I'll help you.

Money for the surgery, or tutoring?

I'll help you.

I said I'll help you.

Okay?

- I will help you. - What?

I was only trying to stop them.

Stop lying. You jumped on me and hit me.

Didn't he?

Yeah, we were arguing and he just butted in...

Excuse me, officer. It's my boss.

Yes, sir.

That's a lie! It's not fair...

Okay, just give me your passport.

Don't know passport?

Hm, almost three years.

You are under a work permit, right?

And it will expire in a month.

The Name is...

Your name is Mua...

Why is it so damn hard?

Mustafa Bin Hadi Karim.

Mohammed Selim Mustafa Bin Hadi Karim.

Hey officer! Just kick him out of the country.

They're taking our jobs.

Hey, be quiet!

You are taking my time to sleep!

Okay.

So anyway, is it karaoke or hostess bar?

- Tell me the truth. - Karaoke.

Then why no one answers?

I don't know. She must be busy.

Busy at this hour? Bullshit!

Hostess bar, right?

And you work there, not your mom runs the place, right?

I'm only a high school student.

This jerk harassed me.

You bitch!

I was trying to help you. And you call it harassment?

That's an attempted murder, you know?

Hey! Hey!

Settle here and be done with it,

or sue each other and go to jail?

Think carefully while I'm gone for coffee, OK?

How could you do this to me?

College girls in massage parlor

I'm exhausted.

So, what's your pick?

Buy me some food.

Sausage Soup Restaurant

Why do you not eat this yummy?

What are pigs for?

Do they work? Are they cute?

You people are so strange.

Speak politely.

It's rude.

We know how to speak politely, too.

Can you do me a favor?

It's my ex-boss's.

He hasn't paid me for a whole year.

And doesn't answer my call.

Will you help me find his place?

Ask human-rights people.

It's no use.

He went bankrupt on purpose, so they couldn't help.

You said you would do me a favor.

It was great, honey.

Yeah, I am hungry.

You cook me something nice this time.

- What' that? - I think it's Min-suh.

I told you to close the door!

- It was hot. I couldn't help. - I can't live like this.

I can't either, without you!

Who?

Karim?

Put your clothes on! Is this your home?

Come on, I'm gonna be your father.

Bullshit! Says who?

You're just my mom's sex partner!

Come right out!

How dare you say such a thing to a grown-up!

How dare you bring that jobless loser to our home!

He is going to be your father!

I'm still looking for a job...

I feel sick whenever I see him!

Open up! Open the door!

No, you guys are disgusting!

Been waiting long?

Let's go.

- Don't get too close. - What?

Keep a distance. About 3 meters.

Don't you understand Korean?

Who is it?

Is this the residence of Prime's former president?

Yes, it is.

I used to work for him. Is he home?

No, he isn't. Come again later.

Wait!

Move.

I said he's not home.

Is this Mr. Shin's residence?

Yes, it is.

Can you please open the door?

I'm his girlfriend.

You are not the only one.

Open up! Open up!

Open the door!

- Don't. - Move aside!

It's OK. Don't

Who the hell are you?

Run! Run!

Hey, stop there!

What's the color of your pore?

Same as yours.

Really?

I'm hungry.

Again?

Well, I am on the night shift today.

Buy you something later.

Nice one.

OK.

Where are you headed?

Huh?

This way.

Yeah?

I go this way.

Take care.

Darn, it's not much.

How many hours a day?

Okay, bye.

Part-time jobs

Witch

Your call cannot be connected.

Please leave a message after the beep.

Why aren't you answering?

I made your favorite Jangjorim with Korean beef.

Please come home.

It isn't real prostitution, and pays a lot.

Once you get used to it, it's all good.

With a few regulars, you are all set.

This is the most popular part-time job lately.

A girl went abroad for study after working hard a year.

You really a college student?

You saw my ID.

Fine.

You can choose your service.

Hard one pays the most,

and then semi-hard, and then soft.

Fuck!

- Rookie, Ready for room 7. - Yes.

Hello.

Want some more?

Yes.

Give us two more servings.

Sure.

You sure eat a lot.

- Let me... - Don't. It's OK.

You want a drink?

You don't come to summer classes,

and don't go to cram schools.

2nd year summer break is very important.

How in the world I met you there?

- Keep your voice down. - Oh boy...

- You must've been desperate. - Watch your mouth.

Right?

Let's go if you're done eating.

Teacher!

Just one more serving.

Hold on.

Hi, honey.

I'm talking to a student now.

Don't wait for me. I will eat outside.

Bye.

Min-suh.

Yes?

If you try harder,

You can go to a college in Seoul.

Eat plenty and study hard.

Yes.

I won't be easy on you if I see you there again.

Yes, yes.

But, you're not coming again...

You really...

Well, you know what?

This is the first time talking one-on-one

with my homeroom teacher.

Please press the pin number.

Your transaction is in progress.

Please take your bank note.

Thank you.

You know, Kids get sensitive at that age.

You look so pale.

Kids...

I love you.

Don't screw up the interview tomorrow.

I ate all the Jangjorim.

Yeah, the native speaker one.

Yes.

How much?

So damn expensive.

About 60 points.

Really?

Pardon my bad English.

Aren't you hungry? - Karim

Here you go.

Thank you. Enjoy.

It's 27,800 won.

You found me. Come on in.

Feeling OK?

So so.

What's all this?

Some food...

And a present.

A present?

What's this?

Topi.

Topi?

It's gonna fall off.

It won't.

Sit down, you're sick.

But, you are the guest.

You don't know Bangladesh food.

Try it.

It's good.

Not bad, huh?

Your hands are chapped.

I'm okay.

- Awesome! - You're good.

Say ah.

Bangladeshi people are very hospitable.

When friends come over,

we don't ask them when they'll leave

for months or even years.

Then can I stay with you when I go there?

Live there.

Oh, boy.

Where's your hometown?

Chitagong.

Chitagong?

It sounds cute.

There's a sea. It's beautiful.

You must miss home.

Are you still sick?

Feel better?

A little.

Wanna see my room?

Huh?

Karim.

Sit here.

Sit here.

Lie down.

Lie down.

Lie down!

Come on.

Lie down!

Karim!

You didn't call me!

Are you mad?

Rub it on your hands before bed.

Good for chapped hands.

What shall we do?

What do you usually do after work?

You don't blog or something?

Where did you want to go most in Korea?

None?

Amusement park?

Do you play ping-pong?

Sure. I'm good.

Lower your body. Some more, more.

Then you can hit the ball.

Do like this. Forehand, and then backhand.

Forehand, backhand, forehand...

Do like this.

Forehand, backhand.

Forehand, backhand.

Forehand, backhand.

It's boring. I quit.

Come on, hurry up.

Good evening.

VIP room is empty? Give me one hour.

What the...

Choose.

Who was she?

Mom.

1-8-8-3

Ki-hong!

I'll go.

With your beautiful appearance which I long for

As if nothing ever happened

To a far-away place that I don't know

After you left me

The sad memories of love...

I know Min-suh is a unique girl,

but isn't that too dangerous?

People like him caused a lot of trouble lately.

On the news, they killed a runaway teenage girl.

A, A, Argentina

Lux, Lux, Luxemburg

A, A, Argentina

Lux, Lux, Luxemburg

A, A, Argentina

Let's spread out the world map

Let's spread out my dreams

Let's find where the countries are

Let's sing along, Luxemburg

Saudi, where oil is overflowing

China, where too many people are

Brazil, two consecutive World Cup triumphs

America, always waging war after war

Jamaica, where reggae plays all day

Sweden, where the sun always shines

Maldives, where many go on honeymoons

Korea, where it will become one nation

Let's go to the world hand in hand

Regardless of skin color and language

We are all proud people

Let's all sing along, Luxemburg

Let's all sing along, Luxemburg

Hi, I am Karim.

Hi.

I'm Min-suh's father... wannabe.

Nice to meet you.

Let's go.

Wait a minute.

You see...

You're good looking.

Thank you.

I just don't like him.

But your mom loves him.

I wish you'd understand.

I tried to, but he's like a beast.

Please open your mind.

Do you have time tomorrow?

I have Muslim mass prayer. Why?

Wanna meet my English teacher?

He seems nice.

He's American.

Open your mind.

Sounds fun, huh?

You must come, OK?

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Who was he?

Huh?

A friend.

Where is he from?

Huh?

What does he do?

Interested? Want to meet him too?

So what if he's Russian or black?

Open your mind.

Even Ki-hong said he's handsome.

You open your mind, you brat.

You do the dishes today.

I want Jangjorim with Korean beef!

He's going there these days?

Of course I'm going.

Thanks for calling.

Over here!

Karim.

Haines.

Wanna sit here?

What's wrong with you?

You look small-minded.

Stuffy!

Look at Haines. He's enjoying life in Korea.

Cuz you are from a poor country?

Yeah, I'm from a poor country. So, I don't know how to enjoy.

And have no time either.

But how ridiculous you people are?

You brown-nose white people,

and look down on us with contempt.

You hypocrites.

Want some more?

You know how dirty you are?

You all screw girls in Southeast Asia

and bring them to tears.

What?

How can I explain...

You know what that white guy said?

''Sweet''

He meant you looked like whores.

So?

So?

Why don't spit it all out while you're at it?

Why'd you come here?

You came here for money, right?

You came here to be rich, didn't you?

Just admit you're envious!

Don't talk about people behind their backs.

I'm sorry to leave you.

So am I.

It was Kungchita?

I'll go visit.

It's Chitagong.

Damn the work permit system.

You have to leave once you're trained.

Here.

You've done well!

You wanna bet?

If he's coming back or not?

Geez, you think he will?

Wait and see.

You don't have class today?

What's this?

Get some new clothes.

You...

There are so many things to pay for.

Fridge is empty...

Buy some side dishes.

Let's go shopping someday

and buy clothes for you.

Is it good?

Yeah, really good.

No Appetite?

I'm eating all of it...

Where's Min-suh?

She's missing this delicious food.

Do you know who's buying this?

Huh?

Do you know who's buying this?

Of course I do.

Yummy!

Economy should get better.

Fantastic! Fantastic!

How about we toast to Karim to bid farewell!

Yes, let's toast.

Cheers!

Live happily when you go back.

-That's what we want. -Good luck.

Karim, you're really going back.

But I'm worried about our country's conditions.

Well, it's the same here.

You're right. Can't say Korea's better off.

We have to go back anyway.

Look at how hard our lives are here.

We work like dogs at the factory.

The boss at the next factory

still beats up the migrant workers.

There's not much

we can do but to shut up and keep working.

Ronu, I recently met a Korean woman.

Marrying her will solve visa problem.

Just marrying is OK?

If it can make you happy...

Well, I don't think so.

Guys like you give Koreans bad images about us.

Yeah, that's right.

Your company is the only one that's doing well in this economy.

Everyone knows that you're doing much better than I am.

Let's finalize this deal here.

Here?

- OK, here it is. - Great.

How about playing golf this weekend?

It's been a quite while.

But you should go.

I'll escort you.

What's this?

Hello, it's Karim. Remember me?

Karim?

Yeah, how have you been?

I'm leaving.

Oh, yeah?

Leaving in two days, or I'll be an illegal alien.

Please give me my money.

Please wait downstairs.

My family is having a very hard time.

I've been waiting over a year.

I could get divorced.

Have you ever thought about

the situation from our perspective?

Karim.

I have a serious heart condition lately.

Only if my company didn't go bankrupt then.

I'll pay you first when things get better, okay?

Excuse me then.

Sir!

Karim...

Don't make me do what I don't want to.

You bastard, are you threatening me?

Staring at me? So, what are you going to do?

I told you to give me some time, you son of a bitch.

You hopeless people

should be grateful for being fed and housed.

What? ''Give me my money?'' Here's your money!

Get lost, you bastard!

Go back to your country...

You are always welcome here.

Thank you.

Since we run the risk we'll have to cut your pay.

Sir, here is the contract.

Now, sign here.

How's your English class,,,

Hello?

Hello, Trisha.

How have you been?

It's been a long time.

When the day comes Book Store

This one please.

It's 50,000 won.

Thank you.

- Take care. - Bye.

Good evening.

Get along with your mom?

Thanks to you.

I quit the cram school.

Why?

You know why.

Haines?

I crushed his balls.

It's a magic hand, you know.

So you're staying longer?

That's good news.

It's illegal, though.

Oh, right. Did you get the money?

That asshole. We'll see.

I broke up with my wife.

Really?

That's why you called me?

No.

Get in!

Get in now!

Hey, Min-suh! Stop right there!

Unbuckle it.

Is this really the sea?

Low tide?

Where are you going?

I didn't come to Korea for this!

What can I do now?

I've been used like a dog.

You crazy Koreans!

You're all slaves like us!

I just wanted to be happy...

Allah!

Is this the world You've created?

I just wanted to be happy...

I just wanted to be happy...

I just wanted to be happy...

Shall we get married?

Let's get married.

Then you can live here.

The phone has been turned off.

Please leave a message after the beep.

It was the happiest day of my life in Korea.

Karim!

We're from immigration office.

Show me your passport.

Who are you people?

Huh?

Karim, what's going on?

Karim!

What are you doing? What's going on?

Who the hell are you? Let him go!

Stay still!

- Get off me! - Stay calm!

Let go! Let him go!

Who was it? Who did it?

I did.

You're horrible. Are you really my mom?

Min-suh, that's too harsh.

Why are you messing up my life?

Have you done anything right for me?

Oh! You gave birth to me.

I was worried sick for my daughter!

I told her to report him.

We didn't know what he'd do to you.

Shut up!

He was the only one I could talk to.

What are you?

My dad?

All you can do is fucking my mom, fucking loser...

Stop it!

I got a job.

I start working next week.

I can be a good dad.

I'll get you allowances and cram school fees.

Allowances? School fees?

After what I've been through...

Get out!

Or shall I?

You come here.

I'm totally through with you!

Min-suh.

Min-suh!

I'm sorry.

''He deserves Paradise who makes his companions laugh.''

Marriage will solve everything.

It's not too late.

- Who is it? - It's me, Ji-young.

Hi.

- Ji-young, are you home? - I'm home.

Are you Ji-young's friend?

Mr. Shin Man-soo?

Who are you?

When will you grow up?

What?

When will you grow up, Shin Man-soo?

Hey, you!

You read this trash,

You live like trash.

When you guys are this rich,

making others shed bitter tears.

Do you have a conscience? Don't you feel guilty?

Who the hell are you, you bitch?

Let go of me!

You bitch.

- Let go! Let go! - You bitch, are you crazy?

Ji-young.

Fuck!

No wonder you two are family.

What?

You two make a perfect pair.

Stop bothering my good dad. This is our own home!

What a pity you have to call that shit dad.

Ji-young, are you okay?

Honey, what's going on?

Let's have a cigarette break.

Shofi.

Amir.

Thank you.

Cigarette.

- Do you have to do this? - Yes.

Why don't you think it over?

I've been thinking over.

School has no meaning to me anymore.

I feel ashamed.

Life is a bigger school, you know.

You're not working there full time?

Teacher!

Thank you.

May I help you?

Murgir torkari, chicken curry,

Mutton torkari and Dhal soup.

It's not on the menu, but can I have some Dai?

Make it a little sour.

Sure.

You know Bangladeshi food very well.

I have a friend.

Bandhobi,
