Will you stop crying and eat?

People are looking at you.

I told you to be careful.

Another man cheated on you again?

I don't understand you at all.

How can you be so weak to men?

You always give them everything and don't ask anything in return.

So you were deserted.

You're an idiot.

How many times did I tell you that

you had to wait until he begged you for love?

I understand you loved him so much, but I cannot believe you.

Stop crying and eat now.

If I'm late again today, I'll get hell from my boss.

Stop crying now!

- Are you alright? - I don't know. My eyes are sore.

Stop rubbing your eyes and wash them with water.

It hurts so much.

Wait, the pain will go away soon.

I told you to pass the demo group by

but you didn't. It's all your fault.

I didn't know that the cops shot tear gas.

Don't you know that they always do that?

It was fun.

What's funny? My eyes are killing me.

Is it still hurting you?

Yeah.

- Let me see. - Stop!

- Don't move. - Don't touch me.

Don't move...

Stop! Don't tickle me!

- Stop! It's weird! - What's weird?

Keep away from me.

Stop. You're tearing off my clothes. You're crazy.

Wait. Somebody's coming.

- I don't care. - No. Someone will hear us.

Who cares?

You're crazy. What's wrong with you?

Isn't it tough?

What's so funny?

Why are you laughing?

- Don't scream. - What?

- Don't make a noise. - I didn't.

- When? - A little while ago.

The neighbors can hear your scream.

- Did I scream that loudly? - Yeah.

I felt so good.

Stop.

Honey, I think I'm crazy.

What? Why?

I'm crazy about you.

Why did you buy it? There is no room for it.

I don't know.

I can't understand why you bought it. It's useless.

It's beautiful.

I don't think so. It's a picture of no value.

Turn the light off and come here.

- Don't light up. - Why? Don't you eat ice cream?

Later.

Guess what I wished for.

What did you wish for?

- It's a secret. - Then, don't tell.

Aren't you curious about it?

The ice cream is going to melt. Let's eat it.

No.

Today is my birthday.

So you have to go home.

How come you stay at a motel on your birthday?

I want to stay with you tonight.

OK. I'll think about it.

Are you sure?

I told you I'd think about it.

Come here.

Yes.

I'm with a client.

No.

Yes.

Here is Gangnam.

Yes.

I'm going to meet her tomorrow morning.

She said she didn't have time this evening.

Yes.

She said she was busy.

Do you want me to wait for her at her office all day?

Don't worry.

Yes.

I see.

Yes, I know.

Sorry.

Yes.

Look at me.

I said, look at me.

How do I look? Do you think I'm beautiful?

Yes, you are.

I guess you overreached yourself. You have no money.

Never mind.

Thanks. I'll take care of lodging expenses for a while.

You don't have to.

"They agreed that they would hold the internal affairs and education"

"committees. The next news. President Kim Yeong-sam stressed"

"the importance of making a new ideology education program."

"Mr. President was given a report on the 3rd educational reform plan"

"by the national educational reform committee."

"He pointed out that the National Federation of Student Association's"

"demo of violence clearly showed that"

"the anti-Communist education had a limit. He also spoke of"

"an ideological education of freedom and democracy..."

- Move. I can't see the TV. - Stop watching TV.

What's wrong with you? I'm watching the news. Move!

What's the matter with you all of sudden?

What?

Why? Tell me.

Well... What if I'm pregnant?

It's impossible. You're on the pill.

Maybe...

I was on the pill but I can be pregnant.

Then, it's all your fault. You took them irregularly.

Don't you wanna wear a condom?

No, I don't.

What about having our baby?

Baby?

Why? Don't you want it?

- Honey, look at me. - Why?

- Look at my eyes. - Why?

Do you love me?

You never told me that you love me.

- I did. - When?

You know I love you. Do I have to put it into words?

You don't have to pay for it. Tell me now.

What's wrong?

You will pay for this.

For what?

I'm serious.

OK. You've got my words. Let's go to bed. I'm so sleepy.

Sorry. I have to go home tonight.

You told me you'd stay with me.

No, I didn't. I said, I'd think about it.

It's raining hard out there. I can't go.

You go home.

I'll stay here tonight.

It's my birthday. You're going to leave me alone?

Then, do you want to go on a picnic this weekend?

You can go alone. I won't go.

Do as you want. I'm leaving and you live here forever.

Sorry.

Will you promise to go on a picnic with me this weekend?

I will.

How long can you stay here?

I have to go in a while.

"Are there many homosexuals in Korea?"

And some of them proudly admit that they're homosexual.

I guess, it is called coming out.

You know what it is, don't you?

Frankly speaking, they gave me the creeps at first, though.

I saw them in some movies, but they didn't look too bad.

Men like men and women like women.

If they love each other, what's the problem?

No. I mean, what do you think of

the abolishment of the marriage prohibition law between men and

women with the same surname and the same family origin?

I'm telling you now.

As a matter of fact, I pity them.

They were destined to be so since their birth.

If they love each other, it's OK.

We can't stop them.

Anyway I don't think they're bad.

And... Isn't it all?

When is it going to be on the air? I have to record it.

Hello? This is room 407.

You didn't clean this room at all.

I told you I'd come by 11.

And I paid $10 in advance.

No! I want this room.

That's why I paid in advance.

Clean it now. Yes. Hurry, please.

What happened to you? You're already 30 minutes late.

Why are you always late?

I'm in room 407. Hurry and come.

"It's me, Seo-gyeong."

"I'm in front of the Pagoda Park."

"I'm waiting for Jong-pyo."

"Isn't it room 407?"

"When Jong-pyo comes, I'll leave. Don't go away."

"And... Never mind. I'll be there and wait for me."

Motel

It's a huge room. How did you find it?

- Where is Jong-pyo? - I don't know.

- Didn't you come with him? - No.

Be ready for shooting.

We have to wait for Jong-pyo.

We don't know when he's coming. Let's shoot.

Who's going to shoot? We'd better wait for Jong-pyo.

- Why not? - I don't want it. Wait for him.

Have you thought of the title?

What about 'A Woman All Men Loved'?

It's too childish.

Then, what about 'Spring Goddess'?

I have to fire the photography director.

His skills are terrible, and he's supposed to show up on time.

No, no. Park So-yeong.

Park So-yeong who majors in dance.

Both of them looked so close.

I couldn't see them stick together and dance.

What? You're dead meat.

When are we going to have lunch?

We have to wait for Jong-pyo.

I'm hungry. What happened to him?

- Oh, you're shooting a film, aren't you? - Yes.

Wow, it's a huge room.

- Are you college students? - What are you doing?

You're taking a gaudy shot, aren't you?

- How much? - Five bucks.

Do we have to shoot it today?

Why?

I wonder if we can shoot it tomorrow with Jong-pyo...

I already paid the motel bill.

Don't you know how much I spent on this film?

And we have to take the shots that we didn't yesterday.

When are you going to do military service?

Military service?

You have to.

If I lose weight, I won't.

Really?

How much more weight do you have to lose?

What's wrong with you, Seo-gyeong?

What about shooting?

We're not done shooting yet.

You told me we could stay here until 7.

What?

I don't think you'll have more customers this late at night.

Yes. What? Extra charge?

Then, how much longer can we stay here?

OK, I see. I'll pay when we're leaving.

I said, I got it.

What happened to Jong-pyo?

If he wasn't going to come, he should've called me.

What should we do?

We have to present it by next Monday.

If we present it late, we'll get a F.

How many more shots do we have to take?

If we shoot scenes 7 and 8, we'll have two shots to go.

Then, let's hurry and shoot.

Are you OK?

Seo-gyeong, lower your shoulders a little. OK, that's it.

Turn your neck to the left a little.

OK.

Move your left arm to the left.

Don't turn your neck this way too much.

Turn it a little.

Your shoulders are too low.

No. Like this... Do we have to wait for Jong-pyo more?

Jong-pyo? We don't know when he's coming.

He's too late. I'm positive he won't come.

Who's calling? Jong-pyo?

Pardon me? Who's calling, please?

What?

No, I didn't page that number.

What? This is room 407

Hey, Seong Jun-gi! You're narrow-minded.

How come you told me like that?

You didn't tell me and went to the discotheque with Jong-pyo?

Nothing happened with him.

I didn't tell you about it

because I was worried that you'd be mistaken.

If nothing happened, what are you worried about?

Who called?

It's Jong-pyo.

He fought with someone and was taken to the police station.

- He just got released. - Police station?

He said, he would come now.

Let's get out of here.

He's coming and we have to wait for him.

Hurry and pack your stuff. Let's get out of here.

We didn't do anything wrong. We don't have to run away.

And ask him about it. Got it?

I see. Hurry and pack.

What did you know?

I'll tell him about what happened today between you and me.

- I don't think you'll. - OK. Hurry and pack your stuff.

Did you leave anything in the room?

And?

The woman who looked so sad didn't move at all.

And she was tearing off red petals one by one.

Oh, she was so weird.

We made a bet on her.

I said that she was lovelorn

and came to the hotel to commit suicide.

She'd go up as many stairs as the number of petals she tore off

and jump off the hotel.

Don't you think my imagination is unbelievable?

Then, Mr. Choi said something but I can't remember it.

And the chief manager said,

"It's simple. She's crazy."

"She will tear off all the petals, then eat them."

Then, we were giggling...

Hello?

Mr. Park? He didn't come today.

OK.

I have a world I love as much as you

I am about to tell you but you want to leave me

- You are coming sometime... - Damn! Shut up!

You shut up!

- I will come back... - Son of bitch!

To my lover

I don't forget that it's you I have to reach

Love teaches me another love

For our endless love

Bang!

A Korean marathoner crosses the line at 149th! Hurrah!

Next question.

What color panties are you wearing?

Next question.

You come to this motel whenever it rains. True or false?

True.

Next question.

How did you find out this motel?

Destiny Fortune telling

Sir, do you remember me?

You told my fortune several years ago.

You're still going strong.

You told me that we were an ill-matched couple.

You advised me not to marry him.

You were right.

Like you said, I must have had itchy feet.

I moved here and there.

We got divorced last year.

No matter how hard I tried, it didn't work.

I should have followed what you said.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to stay here for a while, then leave.

Did you have dinner yet?

No, but that's OK.

- Let's eat out. - No, thanks.

Are you sick?

I think I walked too much on the mountain.

I'll get some rest, then I'll be OK.

Where did the others go?

They went to a bar for a drink as usual.

They don't feel too good.

Jun-ha told me to bring you with me.

That's OK. I don't want to drink today.

I don't know what to say.

Get some rest. I'll be right back.

Where are you going?

I'm going to buy something to eat.

You don't have to. I have to go soon.

Do you remember the motel that we would go to?

- Model Motel? - Yeah.

So, we used to say that we were model students.

I wish I could go there again.

How do I feel when I go there now?

That motel was gone a long time ago.

Was it?

- How's your business going? - So, so.

It shouldn't be. You wanted to do it so much.

Everything did not turn out as I wished.

Hello?

Who's calling, please? Who are you looking for?

Oh, hi.

Tomorrow?

I'll call you back tomorrow morning.

Wait a second, please.

Just a second, please.

You will?

Then, I'll call you back tomorrow...

Do you still live there?

No.

My father died three years ago.

Then, where are you staying now?

At my relative's.

Did... did you miss me at all?

Why didn't you reply to my letter?

- Are you alright? - Yeah, I'm OK.

Let me see. If you get burned seriously...

Sorry.

For what?

For everything.

I'll fly back to Canada this weekend.

You can't go away this way. We should finish it all!

What should we finish?

I have nothing to tell you. Let go of me.

What's wrong with you?

Why didn't you tell me about it? Why?

Please don't do this to me.

Tell me now.

- I don't want to talk to you! - I should, though!

What am I to you? Tell me now.

Open the door.

What are you doing in there? Open the door now!

Then... Then, I thought that

you needed time to think about it.

You told me that you did, too.

I could not understand you.

No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't understand you.

Was it too hard to understand me?

I don't think you didn't understand me.

Don't you remember what I told you when I went to your unit?

I'm sure that you knew the circumstance I was in.

Then, what did I have to do?

What did you want me to do?

What did you want? Tell me now!

That's enough.

Leave me alone.

You've never changed.

Sorry for not changing.

Did you come here just to do this?

Can I read it now?

Just do as you wish.

"Kim Bong-su is doing a great job."

"It means that our team should be more defensive."

"Number 22 Yitzki belongs to a Hiroshima team in Japan."

"He was out of the national team"

"during the preliminary round matches for the World Cup"

"and joined the team this time."

"That's correct. He's the best overlapping player"

"on the Japanese national team."

"Goalkeeper Kim Bong-su kicked the ball far."

"The Japanese team kicked the ball to the center line."

"The Japan team holds the ball more,"

"but the Korean team should play slowly."

"And now..."

Cigarette... When did you begin smoking?

Since I got married.

Why did you get divorced?

Well...

It's a long story.

I...

I did wish for your happy marriage.

Sorry.

What for?

For I got divorced.

Your feet get smaller.

Do you think so?

Maybe I walked too much.

Do you know why it is called Motel Cactus?

I never thought about it.

Isn't it the cactus in the desert?

Don't you think it's a weird name?

Weird? I think it's good.

It's strange. The cactus has thorns.

What if they hurt people?

Do you want me to ask on the phone?
