Episode 31

Bye Miss Park!

Bye!

Don't run!

Ji Suk, are you going home now?

Well...yes...

Let's go together then.

10 seconds please.

My lips are chapped.

Let's go.

Why are you looking at me like that?

What? Oh no, it's nothing.

Why are you yelling?

It's just...

Let's go.

Yes.

Watch out for that--

What's wrong, are you okay?

What's wrong with you Yoon Ji Suk? You're acting like a fool.

Why are you acting like this? Act normal, energetic and laid back.

Okay? Yeah right.

What are you doing? Stop it!

Hey you kid! What's going on?

I'm not going to play with you anymore!

Why are you bullying the girl, kid?

I'm not bullying her. You don't know anything.

If you're not bullying her what is it?

I just...like her...

If you like her then why are you bullying her?

If you like her then you gotta be a gentleman and treat her nicely.

She doesn't like me.

If she doesn't like you then make her like you. Don't be mean to her.

I don't know!

Rascal...

What are you doing?

Can't you see? I'm using the flyers I collected to make a notebook.

Why are you being so frugal?

I can barely afford one date it's driving me crazy.

I have to pay for dinner but that's just the beginning.

We also have to get drinks.

True. It costs a lot of money to have just one romantic meal at a restaurant.

Restaurant?

Don't you go eat at restaurants?

Where do you go to eat?

I just...here and there.

Here and there?

You don't always take her to those hole in the wall places and stuff do you?

Women really hate those kinds of cheap dates.

Nae Sang. If it's not anything too important, can I use the laptop?

Go ahead.

I just need to go into the city's website really quick.

What for?

I recently posted a note asking for volunteers to help the elderly living alone.

I want to see if there are any replies to the post.

The city is holding a singing contest for foreigners.

Wow, the winner gets 2 million won?

Should I say I'm a foreigner and compete?

You?

I can pass as a Vietnamese person.

Definitely not.

What's up?

Why is he here again?

Try the moomallaeng-ee*. It's chewy and tastes incredible! (*dried, seasoned radish)

How does an American know the word chewy in Korean...

American?

A singing competition for foreigners? I don't sing very well.

I'll coach you. You just have to believe me and go for it.

But why do I have to compete in that competition?

For fun. Later on when you reminisce on your time in Korea,

you can think fondly of the time you were in a singing competition.

Reminisce? Nae Sang, that's all you.

Don't just say no. Just trust me and say yes.

Honestly, I don't know why I have to do it.

So I'm telling you it's so that you can build memories!

Just say yes and it'll be good for you.

You said we're BFFs.

Can't you do this one favor for you BFF?

You're doing it, okay?

Now, let's officially start practicing tomorrow.

I'm sorry. Next time, I hope you meet a better owner.

Ha Sun, do you have time tonight?

I'd like to take you out to dinner at a nice romantic restaurant tonight.

What are you doing? Yoon Ji Suk, just act laid-back as you normally do.

Laid back.

What the heck, you really scared me.

You must be going on a fancy date tonight.

Yes...Ji Suk!

Why do you keep barking?

What is this?

Not crap songs like this. Are there any other songs you're good at?

Good at? So something like this?

Enough! Enough! Enough!

-Why? -What is that?

What are we going to do with a foreigner, much less an American, singing an American song?

You gotta stand out to win! Stand out!

-Stand out? -Yes!

Since you're an American, it's hard for you to stand out.

Tanzania, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Guatemala,

People from these countries stand out for their nationality alone but,

these days there are so many Americans.

You're too normal.

So what do you want me to do?

You have to stand out in order to win!

The song has to be one that no one else will sing.

Let's do something like this.

What is it?

What do you think?

Who would think that a foreigner would sing a song like this?

First you'll stand out and second, Lim Jae Bum is really popular these days.

What do you think?

I'm terrible at this song! This song is really hard!

Why not?

No matter what--

Ha Sun, right here.

Sorry, I'm a little late, aren't I?

The time spent waiting for you is nothing short of the happiness I feel when I'm with you.

Isn't it nice here?

Yes. Have you been here before?

Why yes. I used to come here from time to time.

I see...

Here are your menus.

What would you like to eat?

You can choose whatever you'd like.

Why is everything so expensive?

I'll have the spaghetti with tomato sauce in grape seed oil.

Garlic bread for me.

I really like bread.

Especially garlic bread. It's a favorite.

Is that so? But if you only order a garlic bread...

I'm sorry sir, but you must order one entree per guest.

Is that so? It's because I like garlic bread so much.

I apologize sir.

Well if that's how it is, there's nothing I can do about it.

I'll have the pasta aioli.

So we'll bring out an order of spaghetti in tomato sauce with grape seed oil, pasta aioli and garlic bread.

Darn, I shouldn't have talked about the garlic bread if I knew this was going to happen.

The bread is good here.

It is. Have as much as you'd like.

Excuse me.

Yes, sir.

Can we have more soy sauce?

Excuse me? The soy sauce?

The soy sauce for dipping bread.

That is actually--

Oh the balsamic dressing? I'll bring more out for you.

That man has no sense of humor. I was just kidding.

"Excuse me? The soy sauce?" With his expression like this.

Yes...

It's really good here.

Have some watermelon too.

What?

Watermelon has to be expensive this time of the year.

Wow, that's sour.

Why is the watermelon so--

I think these are pickled vegetables.

What?

You didn't think I thought these were really watermelon, did you?

It was just a joke.

I see.

What do you think? Isn't it amazing? This narration is the highlight of the song. Try it.

How am I supposed to do this?

Don't say such weak things!

First, get down on one knee.

Why do I have to get on my knee?

-Just do as I say. -No but really, why do I?

Read this. I wrote down the narration so memorize it.

Who will comfort me if I'm lonely?

None other than you all.

Do you know in which country spaghetti was first made?

Isn't it Italy?

Here are the entrees you ordered.

No, it's not. There's a story that says it was first made in China 2,000 years before Italy,

and that Marco Polo brought it from China to Italy.

I see.

Another fun story about spaghetti is--

-One moment! -Yes?

You forgot to give us chopsticks.

Excuse me? Chopsticks?

I was just kidding. Don't take it so seriously.

Yes, well then, enjoy your meals.

Excuse me!

There's practically no sauce in my pasta.

Can I have more sauce?

-Excuse me? -More sauce please.

There's very little sauce in this.

Sir, the aioli usually does not have a separate sauce.

Of course not. It's just a joke.

You can go.

Yes.

That man really has no sense of humor. He just kept asking "Excuse me?"

Where's Julien? Julien?

Are you really going to be like this? I go to the bathroom for one moment and you run away?

Why do you have no willpower? We have so little time as it is,

when are you going to memorize the song and practice?

I really don't understand why I have to do this!

Don't say such weak things!

We're almost there and you're going to give up like this?

Why do you have such little willpower?

Your total is 42,000 won.

I can use these discounts, right?

I'm sorry but the two offers cannot be combined.

What? Why not?

Is something wrong?

No, no. I'm going to take care of the check so why don't you go wait outside.

Okay.

Can you just combine the offers for me?

I'm sorry, but it's our policy.

Look here, why can't I combine the two offers?

If that's the case then you should have put that on the coupon.

How can you backstab me like this?

Okay fine! Between the two discounts, which gives me a larger discount?

If you receive the 15% using your credit card your total comes to 35,700 won.

You really shouldn't run a business like this.

Sir you are short 500 won.

Just give me a 500 won discount!

Did something happen? That's not the face of someone who just went on a date.

I think I have indigestion.

Want me to get you some medicine?

No, it's not that bad.

-Here, let's do this. -Was that jerk rude again?

No, he was very polite, but I feel like he's outdoing himself because of me,

and I don't know if it's right for me to keep seeing him like this...

Then stop seeing him.

How can I do that? He saved my life.

You must be okay now.

Ha Sun, did you get home safely? I had a great time tonight.

And I meant to ask but I forgot-

What is your favorite color?

Favorite color?

Why is he asking me that?

Maybe he's trying to get you a present or something.

Present?

It'll be a little overwhelming if he goes overboard because of me again.

Foreigner singing competition day

I don't know why I have to wear something like this.

The song is pretty average so you have to at least stand out like this.

Who would think you would sing a modern song wearing a hanbok?(traditional Korean clothing)

A mind-blowing irony! That's what you need!

Why do I have do something so ironic?

Again! Again! Weak words!

Do you not have any desire to win?

You gotta go all the way if you came this far!

Julien, you're next so please get ready.

And next will be contestant number 7!

You have to get first place! First place!

But why do I have to do this...

Kneel! Kneel!

If ever I'm...

in pain?

Oppressed?

Lonely.

Lonely.

In need of a bathroom?

One second.

Hi Young Wook.

Right now?

Okay.

What is it? He wants to see you again right now?

He said he's out front and has something to give me.

I really don't want to.

What is this? I taught you all that and this is it?

That's why I told you I'm not going to do it.

I even came in disguise so that I don't get caught by debt collectors and you couldn't even get that right.

Excuse me! One second.

-Who are you? -I saw him singing in there and he's got potential.

Do you want to release an album with us?

An album?

Here you go.

What is this?

Open it.

It's a necklace.

You said you like red so I made it red.

Thank you.

I'm sorry this is all I can give you right now.

One day, I will switch that clip art with a jewel for you.

I promise.

Oh no it's okay. This is really pretty too.

I'll put it to good use.

Hey Ji Suk.

Be cool. Be cool.

Please be cool.

Are you out shopping?

Wow, you two look good together!

You're on a date right? Wow, you two look great together.

What are you doing?

Well you two are just so picture perfect.

Just saying you look good together.

Young Wook, let's go. I'll buy dinner.

We're going to get going.

You two are embarrassed so you're running away, aren't you?

Why do you keep acting like this?

A highway tape?

Yes. He's got great looks,

and if a foreigner sings oldies, I think it'd be a hit.

What do you think? Are you interested?

There's nothing to think about, we'll do it.

Nae Sang, why do I have to do this?

Flat! Flat! What are you doing? The song has no feeling!

No, why do I have to do this?

Seriously be cool this time.

Be cool. Be cool.

Be cool!

Did you go out?

I yeah...

You must just be getting back from a date!

No, I stopped by the bookstore and--

Don't lie, you went on a date.

No really, I didn't. Why would I lie about that?

Seriously. Why would you lie? You have a guilty conscience?

You kissed! And you're embarrassed!

Why are you acting like this Ji Suk?

You're running away. That's suspicious.

Did you really kiss him?

Just tell me. You did, didn't you?

You did, I can tell. I guarantee it.

Yes I did it!

We kissed! So what if we did?

-No it's that... -Ji Suk, why have you been acting like this?

Stop it!

Don't do that to her. If I catch you doing that one more time, I'm going to beat you up!

And who are you? Are you two in love?

What a dummy. Let's go.

Those two say they love each other a lot!

Hey kid! I told you you're not supposed to bully someone you like.

-I don't know what to do. -If you like her then tell her confidently!

What do I do? I keep acting like this without realizing it.

Do you think that girl will like you if you keep acting like this?

The more you act like this the more you're pushing her away! Why can't you be cool about it?

Why?!

Why...can't you be cool...why...

But why are you crying mister?

I'm not crying...I'm not...

Julien's oldies medley?

Excluding 27 very curious individuals, Julien's debut

into the oldies song industry went completely unnoticed and ignored.

How can the tape sell when you sang like that?

Even I wouldn't buy it!

Nae Sang, I really don't understand why I'm getting in trouble.

Weaksauce...
