Answer Me 1994

It's becoming a big issue nationwide.

Whether it's possible that inside Seo Taiji's song is a satanic message.

Also, what kind of fear the students find from it,

We went and took a look into these accusations of satanic messages in Seo Taiji's songs.

Fall, 1994

These days, there is something very popular among the teenagers.

After breaking open the cassette tape of Seo Taiji's album,

they listen to the songs while it's rewound backwards.

There is even a professional student who can do this job.

Yes.

It is said that satanic noises can be heard from this song.

There isn't enough blood.

Aren't you going to shut your mouth?

Did I make up something?

It really sounds like "there isn't enough blood," so that's why I said "there isn't enough blood."

Hey, do you want to die?!

If you spread that kind of groundless rumor one more time...

You'll be crossing the Jordan River.

It isn't a groundless rumor.

But it's even on the t.v.

I know.

Since it's even on the t.v., shut your mouth and just watch.

And stop talking bullshit.

Why do you do this only to me ?

You think I'm the easiest?

Because you suck the most and I can't stand you the most. That's why!

So, don't say anything and just watch the t.v. with your mouth shut.

Okay?!

Dongsaeng , do you understand me?

Turn it off.

Huh?

Oh.

I... I was about to shut it off. Friend.

Go up carefully, friend.

Dang..that harsh girl..

It's not that she doesn't have enough blood, but that she isn't beaten up enough.

Be quiet, she may hear you.

Hey! Is your neck okay?

Oh... sorry. Sorry.

Hey, your neck is all red!

Wow, that spiteful girl. Who's going to take her? I feel sorry for the bastard.

Well, thinking about it, I'm doubting if she would be able to get married anyway.

There are some crazy dogs wandering sometimes.

Who knows? Some psycho may fall for her

and like her and ask her to marry him.

In any case, if you get married to her, it will be awesome!

Do you want to die?!

Damn it! I'm going to kill you Kim Sung Gyun!

Hey! Kim Sung Gyun!

2013 Sangam-dong, Seoul Hey, honey!

Uh, what?

Why aren't you coming here? Why are you searching through someone else's fridge?

Just a moment. I'll be there.

Oh, boy. My husband is looking for milk in someone else's house.

Na Jeong, this is all you have?

Why, what are you looking for?

Chocolate milk.

Hey!

What chocolate milk, when you're how old? Act your age!

Hey, he's young. You know he's 2 years younger than us.

My husband doesn't drink plain milk.

He only drinks chocolate, banana or strawberry milk.

How old is my honey?!

I'm 37 years old .

Hey, didn't you see this?

Oh, I didn't see it.

If I had, I would have thrown that.

Are you all jealous? Since my husband is younger?

It must be nice, bitch, that your husband is a young'un.

Hey.

Your face is definitely the same as when you were 20-years-old.

Oh, boy. Oppa, your face now looks much younger, too.

Did you forget that a long time ago, you looked way too old for your age?

Me?

Hey, the patients all think I'm in my thirties.

Oppa, you looked 30-years-old even as a student.

Hey, back then it's because I was suffering from studying.

Here.

The groom is entering.

Oh, right! We'll be able to see on the video.

All the guys are in the video. So, let's see who looked the youngest!

Hey!

It isn't your husband.

Hey, Yoon Jin, there's your young husband over there.

He's world-class at looking older than his age. -He's as old as the wedding officiant!

How on earth... What kind of medicine did he eat wrongly?

Didn't people think he was Yoon Jin's uncle or something?

Be quiet, you jerks.

Present is what's important.

The past has no use what-so-ever.

Groom!

Groom, enter!

The groom is entering!

Wow, look at those long legs!

Wow, the groom takes such wide steps full of energy!

Of course, this was a long anticipated day.

♫ Although you couldn't always open your heart and.♫

♫ while approaching him. ♫

♫ But do you think that's necessary? ♫ September, 1994

♫ It seems to me you were in love with him. ♫

♫ Although you doubt whether this is love, ♫

♫ The so-called love is, unlike your thought, ♫

♫ is not that difficult or overwhelming. ♫

♫ In reality, there is no prince like one from a fairytale. ♫

♫ (Today, he probably has smiled,) ♫

♫ and told you again that he loves you.♫

♫And you probably have told him that you like him as a friend ♫

♫ but that you are not sure if that's love. ♫

♫ (However, think it over again.) ♫

♫ While you've enjoyed only receiving love ♫

♫ you just have the selfish thought that giving is hurting your pride. ♫

♫ (The precious one is always) ♫

♫ The precious one is always next to me. ♫

♫ (Always next to me.) ♫

♫ Now, open your heart.♫

♫ (Now, in his arms,) ♫

♫ Now, in his arms, take a rest. ♫

♫ (In his arms, take rest.) ♫

The Words I Wanted You to Hear by 015B

Kangaroo! Kangaroo! Two kangaroos! The kangaroos are boxing, right?

Here... Oh. Oh! Here, I see two... Two! Kangaroo!

Hey, hey! I see it, too. There are two kangaroos with their paws like this, right?

How come I can't see it?

Hey, you can't see the two kangaroos here?

Hey, the next one. The next one.

Try looking at this one.

Squirrels!

And they're holding acorns!

Yeh! And their tails are coming out like this...

Next one. Next one. Next one.

Camel! -Camel!

Mickey Mouse! -Mickey Mouse!

Tiger! -Tiger!

Roar! -Roar! -Roar!

Aish! How come only I can't see it? You aren't all lying, right?

Hey, hey. Look. Look.

The tiger is going "roar" like this, right?

-The mouth is here and the tail is over there. - That's right and the hands are like this.

That's right. And the hands are like this.

Aish! I can't see it no matter what!

How the heck do you see this?

Come stuff your face with food.

Hey, let's "stuff our face" with food.

Aren't going to eat?

Yeah. I'm not going to eat until I see this.

Geez, I guess she's turning on her competitive side.

Chil Bong, let's go.

Oh... go ahead. I'll be there after helping her for a bit.

At this rate, you won't get to eat breakfast.

Don't you know she doesn't give up once she sets her mind to it?

Isn't this the smell of shiragook?

I guess Mother made the shiragook.

If you can't see Magic Eye once, you can never see it.

So, you should give up and go eat.

You said your team moves on to the semifinals.

Don't waste your energy on useless things.

Let's go!

Our Sung Gyun must really like the shiraegi soup.

Give me your bowl. I'll give you some more soup.

There's nothing to see but the baby, the baby! Just eat, you punk.

But, where are all the kids?

Isn't it time for Trash to slowly come out?

I didn't wake him up on purpose.

- His lights were on until dawn while studying. - At least he is good at studying .

What about Binggrae?

He received a call early this morning and he left in a hurry.

He left a little while ago.

Oh my, oh my, oh my.

Hey, Yoon Jin!

It says, Seo Taiji is...

the Satan. The Satan!

Oh my goodness. Really?

Oh my, oh my.

It's here... here. Do you see it?

Thank you.

Huh? Why aren't you eating more?

Here...

In the chorus that was sung by Ahn Heung Chan from the heavy-metal group, "Crash",

the line "instead of changing yourself, why do you wait for others to change?"

If you play that line in reverse, it sounds like "there isn't enough blood."

Or, it sounds like "you can see the devil, you can see the devil."

What is heck is this? Is he really Satan? If you hear it backward...

Hey! Hey! Hey!

How in the world...

"There isn't enough blood."

"You can see the devil." Geez, he looks like a normal person...

Why does he sing stuff like that?

Here.

Make a focal point in the center here.

And with your two eyes, stare at the point like crazy.

And slowly cross your eyes.

Then, un-focus your eyes.

Think as if you're looking at the dot with the back of your eyeballs, instead of the front.

Until the picture become blurry, until the end

don't lose your focus and continue to stare.

Then, all of sudden, something will pop out!

Don't try to see it ahead of time. Until you can see it, you have to wait like crazy.

Aish!

I can't understand anything you're saying!

Then...

Instead of this one,

let's try an easier one.

Okay.

Ow, I feel like my eyes are going to fall out.

Why don't you just give up?

Only those who can see, can see Magic Eyes. Those who can't, can never see it.

I know. I will be able to see it.

Rabbit.

This is a tulip.

This is a banana. Banana.

It must be nice. How can you see it so quickly?

Hey, once you can see it, you can see it quickly.

I really don't think you'll be able to see it.

Be quiet and quickly find an easy one.

Oh geez, but I'm really hungry.

I'll buy you omurice from Minerva cafe.

Yeah...

This is easy. This one's really easy.

Wow, I can see it right away.

If you can't see this one, you'll really never be able to see Magic Eye.

Be quiet!

Just give up. You won't be able to see it.

I'm telling you. If you can't see it at first, you can never see it.

What will you do if I can see this?

Nah, I'm telling you, you won't.

Let's bet $100.

Really?

If I see this, give me $100.

If I don't see it, I'll give you $100.

What if you ask someone what kind of picture this is?

Do you really not know me?

I'm Sung Dong Il's daughter.

I'm the coach's daughter.

Okay. Call.

Until when?

Until this Saturday.

You have 3 days left.

Just a moment. I'll be back after making a call.

Out of all the Magic Eyes I've seen,

this is the easiest one.

Try to do well.

Episode 9 The words I want to say are...

Hey Dong Woo!

What are you doing here, punk?

What do you think? I came to see you, Hyung.

What about school?

Ah, Seoul is really different! The school is so huge!

How big of an area does this cover? It seems like it'd be the size of a small town!

I mean, what about school?

What do you think? I skipped school to come here.

This isn't the first time I ran away from home. Why do you act so surprised?

Though, I guess this is the first time I ran away to Seoul.

Oh, Hyung! I didn't get lost in the subways, and I got here in one try. I'm amazing, right?

Hey, are you crazy?

Don't you know that you'll be dead if Father finds out? He won't care about school or anything... you're dead.

You made up your mind to get beaten to death, huh?

This time, I really had a reason for running away!

Did you ever see me act out without a reason?

What is it this time?

Did you argue with Father again?

It's not like you don't know that Father is like that.

You should have just been patient. Why did you run away, huh?

Ah, well... I don't have as much patience as you.

Also, this time Father was a bit too harsh.

It's really the truth, Hyung.

I'm hungry, Hyung.

What about Chil Bong?

Weren't you with him?

He said he had something to buy, so he left beforehand.

It's fermented well.

Stop, stop, stop, stop, Mom. I can't eat it all.

Trash is going to eat as well.

Hurry and go wake your brother.

Your oppa really likes the shiragook with hot chili peppers.

I cooked the soup so magnificently well today!

Oppa doesn't have class today, so just let him sleep.

He could eat, then go back to sleep.

Ah, what are you doing? Hurry and go wake him up!

I'm busy today.

Oh, my! You scared me!

My liver almost dropped!

I was here just standing still.

Mom says you should eat.

After I put on some lotion, I'll be right there.

My son, eat a lot.

The hot chili peppers that you like... I put a whole bunch of them in!

I woke up from my sleep after smelling this.

What about you, Mother? Aren't you going to eat?

We ate earlier.

Only you and Na Jeong haven't eaten yet.

Thank you for the meal, we'll enjoy it.

I'll do it for you.

No need to! I'm good!

Aigoo girl, stop bitching at your brother.

You can just wash that area with water!

I really can't live because of you!

Jeong, I'm sorry.

Aigoo, wench. Her personality is just too difficult.

Her personality is really shitty.

Jeong, I'll run the washing machine-

Oh, sorry.

Did Father hit you again?

No, it's not that.

If he didn't even hit you, then why did you run away from home?

If I had been hit, I would have just drank soju with a friend and gotten over it.

Why did you think about alcohol, when you're just a high school student?!

Aigoo, I guess it's something that a good student like you could never imagine.

Where would you find a student who doesn't drink alcohol these days?

There are a lot of them out there!

So, what happened?

Anyway,

I'm so used to getting hit that it doesn't bother me anymore, and I don't get worked up over it.

A shot of soju and a cigarette is all I need-

Quit smoking!

Your head is still wet with blood!

Okay, okay, I'll quit.

Anyway, Hyung!

This time, Father went a bit too far!

He insulted my pride!

So what happened?

My grades fell a bit...

Can they even fall any lower?

I'm not going to tell you!

Are you going to keep acting like Dad?

Okay, okay.

So, what happened?

I fell about 30 ranks.

That's crazy, it really is.

Are you at the very bottom?

Yep.

Are you even human?

Our studious Hyung could never understand.

But Hyung,

I'm really not geared towards studying.

I have no interest, and I don't have the brains for it. Even if I studied, it'd just be a waste of time.

What else is a student going to, aside from studying?

You have to study so you'll at least go to college.

Do you think other people study because they like it? They just endure it.

Why should I endure it?

I have something that I want to do!

What is it? What do you want to do?

I'm not going to tell you.

I'm not going to tell you, Hyung.

You're not ready to hear it.

We'll enjoy the meal.

Did you figure out the Magic Eye?

No.

You're not going around asking our friends , right?

Hey, hey, okay, I got it.

That's not something that a girl should know about!

I still have three days left.

I just need to see it in two days, right?

Yeah, that's right.

What are you doing tomorrow?

Tomorrow? Why?

I have a game tomorrow.

You always seem to have a game.

Starting tomorrow, we have the fall-season semi-finals.

It seems like they play baseball 365 days in a year!

It'd be great if they just played for one season, like basketball.

Even though they're both sports, only the baseball players have a hard time.

The starting pitcher for the semi-finals is me.

Is that something to be proud of?

Of course, especially for a freshman!

Are you showing off?

Uh, no, that's not what I was...

If you have time tomorrow, I wanted you to come see the game.

Really, I just wanted to ask if you'd come and see the game.

It's a jinx.

What jinx?

A jinx in which if a girl comes to cheer a game, we win.

How did you win all this time, then?

Well, numerous girls came to cheer.

Then, you don't need me to go.

I've seen a lot of girls attend the game.

Can't you just come?

(Give me a) hint.

Huh?

Just give me one hint, for the Magic Eye.

If I give you one, will you come?

Okay.

It's not a letter.

Then, is it a picture?

It's a picture.

I guess you could call it a picture.

Hey, I gave you my hint. You're coming tomorrow, right?

What time tomorrow?

-Tomorrow... -Oh!

Oh, right... I have a group presentation tomorrow!

What could I do? I was going to go tomorrow...

Can I go the day after tomorrow?

On that day, Hyung Sun Dong is the pitcher.

Do you really have to go?

If I were the only one presenting, I could skip, but...

since it's a group presentation, if I don't go, I'd be really letting them down.

I was going to go, since I was worried that it was a jinx.

My dad also has a huge jinx. If my mom attends the game, he loses.

So, I know how much that means to you...

I'm sorry, Chil Bong.

I'll attend the game the day after tomorrow.

I'm saying that it'll have no meaning if you come that day.

Ah, I don't know. If I lose the game tomorrow, then it's all your fault.

Don't say it like that.

My feelings don't sit right, if you say that.

What's with my bad luck? Why do I keep dropping food?

Hey, it's going to show the stain because it's a white shirt.

Do you need to change?

Do you have the time to change before your next class?

I have about 30 minutes, but...

it's too bothersome!

Oh, what should you do?

Does Father know that you came to Seoul?

Hyung, if you call home and say that I'm here, then I'm really going to go into hiding! Got it?

I'll go back in 2-3 days, so don't worry.

I have things to do, too!

So, until then, please keep it a secret.

It's time for me to go to my part-time job. Let's go together.

And wait there.

Yep!

Oh, it's raining, Hyung.

What nonsense are you saying? Look at the sunshine!

I guess the tiger is getting married.

Why did you pick up the phone so late, Mom?!

I'm at the Twins Supermarket, so hurry and come out here.

I don't have an umbrella, I twisted my ankle, and I can't walk.

I'm about to die in pain.

Mom!

Did you get hurt badly?

You said you were in front of the Twins Supermarket, right?

I'll be right there.

Na Jeong!

Hey! Knock first.

Crazy guy. Who knocks to enter the locker room?

Are you a guy?

What's up? The schedule changed?

We can't have the semi-final tomorrow?

Wake up.

What?

It's raining outside.

Tonight's quarter finals got cancelled.

It's been pushed back a day.

You've gained another day, Chil Bong.

Adjust your conditioning for tomorrow.

How did you hurt you leg?

I sprained it.

You should be careful.

You don't need to go the hospital?

No need, we have medicine at home.

Why back to the house? Did you leave something?

I spilled food on my clothes.

While I was eating omurice with Chil Bong.

Use the umbrella for yourself. I have a cap, so I'm alright.

It's raining a lot.

I'm alright, your bag is going get wet.

So what if the bag gets wet.

Did Mom go somewhere?

Yes, she just went out saying that she's meeting a friend.

Is that right?

When you hear the beep, please leave a message.

Hey, you said the day after tomorrow you can make it, right?

My game tomorrow was cancelled.

It was pushed back a day.

Hey, this is really a miracle, a miracle. It's divine intervention.

Anyway, you definitely have to come.

So, I'll take it that you're coming.

I'll see you the day after tomorrow, Na Jeong.

Your message was recorded.

That hurts.

How about this?

It's a little better.

It doesn't seem as if you've fractured your bone.

So for now, let's leave it and see tomorrow.

If it still hurts, let's go to the hospital.

Ouch.

Is it swollen a lot?

A little. It's swollen a little bit.

Is it better?

Yup. Much better.

Can you shower like this?

Do you want me to wash you?

I'm joking, girl.

I know. Did I say something about it?

I'm not looking. Stop trying to conceal it.

Your shirt will be all pulled out of shape.

Arm.

Now, let's go to get washed up.

Let's go.

Let's go and get washed up.

♫For a long time I wasn't searching. ♫ The more I love you by Boo Hwal

♫ On the street over that hill... ♫

Hey, what are you doing?

Oh, Joon hyung!

What are you doing here?

Are you here with aunt?

Oh no. I'm here alone.

What about school?

I ran away from home.

What?

My story's quite long...

Go and meet with my brother. I'll be back after running an errand.

But Joon hyung,

it's good being a college student.

I mean, you get to go to school and get to work part time.

How good is that?

I sure am envious of college students.

Aigoo, our hyung is stuck on Boohwal this time too.

I'll see you later, Hyung.

♫ To you I will be called a pain.♫

♫ The more I love you . ♫

♫The farther our brief encounter will move away in the passage of time.♫

Now, it's again Boohwal?

I liked Boohwal originally.

Your leave of absence, no one at home knows about it yet, right?

If you haven't said anything, then no one knows.

I met Dong Woo at the front.

It didn't look like he knew, that's why I asked.

When will you tell them?

Don't you think your family should know?

Hey, I'll take care of it. You just worry about yourself.

Oh, that's right.

Sleep at Daechi-dong tonight, so that I can let Dong Woo sleep at the boarding house.

Because the semifinals started, I have to sleep at the team dorms anyway.

Hey, give me one 500.

Don't you have a game tomorrow?

Because it rained today, it was pushed back a day.

Hey, aren't they part of your team?

All in peace!

It's all good, cheers!

It looks like the coach went to the Gwangju game.

I heard it's the 6th away game, in a row.

Uh huh, my Haitai team is winning.

They'll lose soon.

Don't you know that lately Seoul Twins are awesome?

Don't say unlucky stuff, just don't!

Hey, can you see the advertisement billboard in the back?

What?

"Really Big Chicken"?

Is there a such kind of chicken?

What's "Really Big Chicken"?!

What, could that be something made out of turkey, no?

Hey, you don't know that chicken?

That's a really famous chicken from Jeolla Province.

They say they don't know "Really Big Chicken."

This is the first time we are hearing about it.

We have "Good Food Two Chickens."

Daebak. Really?

The name is "Good Food Two Chickens"?

You're hearing about it for the first time?

We grew up eating only that.

For us, it's "Pelicana Chicken."

The founder of the company is from Hongseong, South Chungcheong Province.

You even know about that?

You're great. Great!

Hey, be quiet.

These kids have eaten McDonald's from kindergarten.

You're just getting embarrassed today.

Hey, if they do, so what?

Aren't we now in Seoul under the same sky regardless?

Present is what's important. The present!

Where is your hometown?

It's Suncheon, South Jeolla.

Not the Sunchang of red pepper paste , but Suncheon that's in Suncheon Bay.

Ah, right. You don't know each others' names.

His name is Kim Sung Gyun and he's from Samcheonpo.

He's my cousin from Geosan.

Goesan?!

Wow, you don't look like you are.

Then, what is it for him to look like he's from Goesan?

Do you have to look like him to appear to be from Goesan?

What's wrong with me?

No, I don't mean that.

You look very refined.

What, is it not permissible to look refined if someone lives in Geosan?

No, what I'm saying is he doesn't look like he's from the countryside.

That he has a good style.

It's not the countryside!

Oh, these kids have started again.

Still, baseball, basketball, stuff like that, it seems you probably did them for the first time after coming to Seoul.

In the countryside, there aren't things like baseball fields, basketball courts, are there?

Aside from some of the major cities.

Do you know how big Suncheon General Stadium is?

We also play baseball, soccer, everything there. What would we be sad about?

And I wasn't going to say something like this.

I used to be a member of the children's Buffalo soccer team, in South Jeolla Province.

We did a lot of youth exercise in the Sam Cheon Po Public Stadium.

If we won, for awards, Daewoo Royals gave us a soccer ball.

Only a soccer ball? Soccer shoes, soccer uniforms.

Also, sports drinks. I wasn't going to say this, but...

I'm someone who doesn't get up on the ground if I don't have equipment.

Hey, isn't that right?

Well, we played the soccer with a pig's bladder on the rice field.

What are you, a kid born in 1945*?

Hey, just keep your mouth shut since you're not helping.

Then, in the provinces, are there places like this too?

Hey, are you kidding?

There are bars like this for every neighborhood.

And we too have fun til 2 a.m. at hotel nightclubs.

You have hotel nightclubs too?!

Hey, they have buses out at 2AM over there?

Taxi. What, the provinces don't have taxis?

Do you think we take the tractors home?

Aigoo... You would be considered rich if you have a tractor.

Well, that's more expensive than a car.

At our house, we just have two of those seed-spreading tractors from Asea.

Hey. Is he really your biological brother?

Wow. You've saved your brother today.

If that weren't the case, as a representative for the provinces, I would have killed him on this spot.

Let's just go home. If we stay any longer, we'll just be made more fun of.

You want to leave already?

It's time for "Feelings." I have to watch my Woo Hui Jin.

Hey, take him with you.

He's staying at the boarding house tonight. Just leave him in my room.

Hurry and let's go. I can finally listen to Lee Moon Se's "In a Starry Night" today.

Yeah, I haven't seen it yet.

If I can see that already, why do you think I made a bet?

A message? I didn't hear it.

When did you leave it?

The day after tomorrow is fine. What time is it?

2 o'clock? Alright.

I got it. I'll be there!

Okay. Bye.

You're still doing Magic Eye?

Oppa, can see see Magic Eye, too?

Are you kidding? Are there people who can't see it?

I can't see it.

Let me see, I'll help you.

It's alright. This is something Chil bong gave to me.

We made a bet for $100.

We can divide it in half. I'll give you the answer.

Give it to me.

No, that's cheating. I'm going to see it through my own effort.

Ah, girl, do you think you're going out for some Olympics? It's fine if you can't see it.

Let me see it.

You can't!

I'll just look at it. Just me.

I said no! You do your own, you crazy bastard.

I'll just look at it and I won't tell you.

I don't want you to! Forget it! Stop interfering! - Just a moment. Just a moment.

I'll figure it out! Aish...

I don't want you to! Forget it! Stop interfering! - Just a moment. Just a moment.

I'll figure it out!

Aish...

Don't tell me, alright?

Let's see...

Who did you say gave this picture to you?

You guys came.

Uh. Hyungnim, you were home?

It's pouring outside. Pouring.

I'll wash first.

But, who is this kid?

Is he your younger brother?

No, he's not. Hyungnim. He's Binggrae's younger brother.

He ran away from home and came to Seoul from Goesan just now.

This young punk.

Hello.

Ah. Okay.

Hey, where is that Binggrae?

He's working at the pub since two days ago. Hyungnim.

At the Two Men pub behind the Grace department store.

He's becoming a money-grubber.

Do you have a cigarette?

I don't have it. Do you want me to go buy it?

It's fine. I'll go buy it.

Hey.

What time does Binggrae get off from his part-time job?

It's about time for him to get off work.

Hyungnim, when you're coming back please get me one pack of 88 Gold also.

Okay.

Bye. Hyungnim.

Follow me.

Mom, it's me.

What about dinner?

I just ate some.

I know.

Dong Woo is here with me.

I'm going to let him sleep at the boarding house for today and send him back home tomorrow on the bus.

Don't worry too much. You know he is good inside.

But Mom,

is Dong Woo doing something else?

Hm? What?

Did he say something to you?

No, he said he is doing something other than study.

What else is there

other than hanging out with friends to have fun?

With your father's temper,

he can't even take a breath properly at home.

Dong Woo,

let him get some air in Seoul this time.

My eldest son. You are going to school well, right?

Isn't study hard?

I can't even visit you once up there.

To Mom, everyday is a suffocating day.

My son, don't live like me.

Seoul,

in a big world,

things that you want to do,

things that you like,

I wish you would live like that to your heart's content.

Mom is being talkative today, right?

Dong Woo,

take care of him with meal.

You also study hard with your school study.

Don't worry about Mom.

This is Mom's fate.

I understand.

Don't worry too much.

I'm going to hang up.

Okay.

♫ It ended as if it would start, ♫

♫ I wrote down so many things in the novel. ♫

♫ In the scene where it blooms for a while, ♫

♫ I'm trying to leave you. ♫

♫ As if the story already was decided. ♫

I paged you!

Is today the day I have to help all the mice that fell into water?

Hey, dude. If you didn't have an umbrella. Why didn't you call home? You frustrating guy.

Sunbaenim, what are you doing here?

Sunbaenim came to pick you up.

Aigoo, that's not it.

Since it's raining and I feel a little under the weather.

So I came here to drink a cup of soju with you.

Let's go. I'll buy you soju.

What are you doing? Come closer.

I told you to come closer. You'll get wet. Let's go.

After he became a college student, I guess he has no interesting in studying.

Is he a med student or a music major student?

Hey. Seoul people,

I guess they are full.

It's only ten o'clock but the bars are closed.

I guess here will do. Let's just drink here.

Sunbaenim, I'll pour it for you first.

Hey. Hey. Hey. Let's just drink comfortably.

Hey.

Don't keep calling me, "Sunbaenim. Sunbaenim."

All other kids are calling me Hyung. Even some kids

calling me Trash.

Only you constantly call me sunbaenim, sunbaenim.

Are you keeping a distance from me?

Just comfortably call me Hyung.

Here, take this.

But still, this is more comfortable for me.

Do whatever you like.

Hey, how's the pub?

Is part-time job at the pub okay for you?

Yes.

There's not many customers, so it's not hard. And I can listen to music secretly.

The convenience store and the cafe.

What about tutoring? Are you still doing tutoring?

I tutor twice a week. It's not hard.

This is not hard and that is not hard.

There's no difficult thing.

I see. Then that's good.

Hey.

Since earlier, I'm hearing a song from somewhere.

Ah.

This was turned on.

Let's hear it. What is it?

It's cold.

It's really pouring freaking a lot.

Hey.

Isn't this

Boohwal?

How did you know?

Are you disregarding me? I have ear holes.

Hey, but the voice sounds different from the t.v.

Yes.

This is "The More I Love" by Mr. Kim Jae Gi.

It's good right?

Who is Mr. Kim Jae Gi?

The original vocalist who sang this song

but he passed away from a car accident before the album came out.

Is he someone that you knew?

No.

Then it's just Kim Jae Gi.

What is with Mr. Kim Jae Gi?

Do you use honorific to the celebrity also?

He's older than me. How can I just call him by his name?

Even if he is a person that I don't know.

Sunbaenim.

Mr. Kim Jae Gi sang this song only once before he died.

Really?

And he didn't sing this song officially to release the album.

He just sang this song as practice.

How did he sing this difficult song perfectly with one try?

Both Mr. Kim Jae Gi and Mr. Kim Tae Won ,

I think both of them are geniuses. Right?

I envy them.

If you're envious, why don't you do it?

But I'm not a genius.

Hey, punk. Only genius do music?

Then remaining 99% who are not geniuses should die.

You said you don't know now what you want to do.

Then, just give this a try first.

What if this isn't it after I give it try?

Then, you can try something else.

Anyway, you punk. Your sunbaenim who is like heaven is talking to you.

But you're laughing at me?

- Do you want to die? - No no no.

- Do you want to die? - No no.

[Leave of Absence Form]

I'm guessing your father is a pretty scary person?

He doesn't know that you're taking time off from school yet, right?

If he knew about it, I wouldn't be able to stay in Seoul.

He probably would have already dragged me home to Goesan.

But if you talk to him earnestly, wouldn't he understand it?

You're adult now, too.

He doesn't even want to hear my words.

My father is someone

who you can't converse with.

He's always irritated and shouts.

When he gives $10 allowance to his sons,

he makes me and my brother cry once. Even when he's going to give it to us anyway.

Making a person feel bad.

Yeah. There's a person who says like that when they talk.

But me,

my liver is small . So I grew up

doing what my father told me to do.

My younger brother is completely different.

Since he was young, he caused trouble.

He's not interested in studying.

He only likes his friends.

If he likes something, he has to do it.

Dong Woo has grown up getting hit by Father a lot.

That's why he's sneaky and takes the blow well.

Still, it seems your brother likes you.

Seeing that he came to you while running away from home.

He said I'm pathetic.

He makes fun of me that I'm like a puppy that father raises.

Now that I see, you do resemble a puppy a little.

Just now, you glared at me again, right?

-No. - Just now, you did.

-No, I didn't. - What do you mean no, I think you did.

- I just looked at you. - You just looked at me?

But, why did your brother run away?

What's the reason?

I don't know. He won't tell me.

Hey, why are you searching through my room?

Hey, you took a leave of absence?

Yeah.

Don't tell the parents.

Wait, are you crazy?!

What are you going to do when Father finds out?

You are going to die.

When Father finds out, you're going to die that same day.

Wow, your liver is big. Big!

You've gone crazy, right?

You're crazy!

Who takes a leave of absence from medical school? Are you in your right mind?

You're talking loud for a runaway.

Hey! No one will find out if you keep your mouth shut. Just wash up and go to sleep.

I knew you would make big trouble someday.

You should've already defied.

What are you thinking you'll do after you're all grown up?

Hey. You bastard. Are you testing my patience right now?

- It's my hobby. What do you care?

Hobby? Yeah freaking right. Since when did you love music?

You don't think I would realize you were trying to turn the tape backwards?

Did I or did I not tell you to not do it?

I told you not to do it, right?

Am I supposed to not do it just because you told me to?

I don't want to. I want to do what I want.

You bitch.

I'm not going to leave you alone.

Sam Cheon Po, I'm going to use your soap.

You can't!

That's a natural organic soap.

Hey, that cost $5, you punk!

Don't use it!

I didn't give you permission...

Is this really an easy one?

Aish. The picture is getting blurry but

after that I don't see anything popping out.

That's when you can't lose your focus.

You need to keep staring.

Oh, and you know about tomorrow. 2PM.

I know. I know. I'm gonna get scabs on my ears.

Hey, hey!

Are you sure it's a picture?

Why can't I see it?

I think I'm really a "dalgoo".

What are you saying again? Anyway,

I hope you closely look at what that picture is.

Okay.

is it working now or not ?

Hey, puppy!

Sit here for a moment, I will be back soon after drying my hair. Sit and wait for me!

Yes.

Uh? Where is it? It was right here.

Uh... where did it go?

Sunbaenim, are you looking for this?

Oh, yes, it was there. I thought I lost it.

What is this?

Can't you see it?

It looks fun, right?

Oh, there are not many days left until it's preliminaries.

How can I go in for this one?

Why not? It says any college students, either attending now or taking a break, can participate.

No way, I'm not good at singing, and I have no song to sing here either.

Hey, you punk, did I tell you to win something here? I'm telling you to go there just for your fun.

But still, with my singing skill, how can I go there? If I do, it will be a total disgrace to my town.

There is no one who knows you in Seoul. Other than us, you have no one who will recognize you in Seoul.

Forget it. And I have no guts to enter this kind of contest either.

Ah, seriously, hey, just a mere thing like this doesn't require your guts.

You said you envy those singers. Then, you can just try to sing it yourself.

Later. I will try it later when I am ready.

You, stubborn punk. This brat!

Well, I don't know well about your father,

but do you know that you just take after your father, whom you really hate?

Pardon...?

This punk, at a glance, you look so gentle,

but if I keep looking at you, you really don't listen to other people's words.

Hey, I have three tests tomorrow,

but to give you this poster, I went to the school late tonight

and took it off secretly despite the rain, did you know that?

In my home, I'm the youngest of three brothers.

So if I get to have a stubborn younger brother like you,

I thought I would take care of him well. That's why I'm doing this, you know.

So, listen to me, please.

Listen to me carefully, look at me,

and try to understand ,

so that you can really understand with what thoughts I'm saying this,

and with what mind I'm saying this.

And you should listen to what your head is saying too,

and try to understand it so that you can find what you really want to.

Ah...

Hey, even when you're just fooling around, you should do something while fooling around.

Even if you do try this contest, there are just two results, "Dang" or "Ding Dong Dang".

So, just try it. I will keep this in secret from other kiddos.

Instead, if you go to the next round of the performance, you should treat me to a meal, okay?

Smile. With your teeth showing.

See the date of the preliminaries. Hurry up, open it.

What are you doing, not sleeping?

Well, I was waiting for you.

I'm turning off the light.

Dong Woo,

you should go back home tomorrow.

Mom is worried about you a lot.

For Mom's sake at least, go home tomorrow.

I was going to go home, anyway.

If you're worried about Mom that much, how could you submit the leave of absence?

Are you laughing at me now?

No way. It's just because it was too shocking.

I thought my brother was a timid guy, but I guess I've been misjudging you so far.

Seeing you act impulsively, I guess, you and I, both are really our father's sons.

That's why, you brat, at least you should treat Mom well.

We can escape sometimes,

but Mom must have been so suffocated there.

Well, this time, too, Mom kept crying beside me,

so I just ran away from home, not standing up to Father anymore.

Hey, Hyung, do you know why I ran away from home?

The report card I mentioned earlier, that was sent to home yesterday.

But when Father saw my report card...

When he saw it, what?

- If he beat me up, I wouldn't have run away. - It's not new at all, you know?

But you know my close buddy, Bin, right? The one from the apple orchard.

That ugly one?

But, what about Bin?

Well, I'm doing something with Bin these days, you know.

So, I've been hanging out a lot with Bin at his house for the last months,

but as my marks were worse, he called Bin.

Really? Why did he call Bin?

Saying "My son's marks became worse because he hung out with you!".

"Because you gave a bad influence to my son, he's not going to the school, but fooling around."

It was totally embarrassing!

So, did you just stay put?

Of course not! That's why I ran away from home.

Hey, Bro,

I'm attending a cooking school these days.

Huh? Why cooking, all of a sudden?

Well, I'm not confident in studying,

and there is already you for studying anyway, I thought I'd better find something else.

With studying, I'm not confident to get into a college either.

When I checked, if I get a certificate , I can enter a college.

There is nothing that I can do well, or that I want to do,

but.. you know, I love eating.

That's right, you really love eating.

And, Mom loves bread, you know.

When I checked, at a baking school, when you make bread, you can take it home.

So, one day I brought the bread I made at the baking school to home.

And Mom really enjoyed it so much.

So I decided to become a cook.

So, what do you want to do in future? Do you have a dream?

Of course, I have.

Really? You're better than me, then.

What is your dream? What do you want to be?

A chef at Hotel Lotte.

Aigo, you're too ambitious.

Are you laughing at me now?

No, I'm saying good luck. I think you will do well.

The sincerity is usually hiding behind.

Since it's so shy and delicate, the more you push it and yell at it, the deeper it hides.

There is only one way. Until the sincerity raises its head itself,

you have to just meet its eyes and listen to its words.

If you wait while putting your words and thoughts aside, the sincerity just pops up before you know.

Any sorts of pretense or haughty advice can't be a real comfort.

Comfort is usually created at the moment when sincerity is shared.

If you want to comfort someone,

it's enough for you to just watch and listen to that person.

Luckily, I have someone who reads my sincerity which I don't even know.

I have a hyung whose very existence itself gives me comfort.

Wow, did you make it?

I thought you're always eating cookies only, but I wonder when you get to learn to cook.

Mom cooked it before she left.

Dong Woo, eat a lot. I cooked the steamed rice, though.

Yes, I will enjoy, thanks.

Hey, which noona is pretty, this one or that one?

Bullshit! Hey, you are at the same age as he is!

But how dare you make him choose or not?

Just shove the food in your mouth, don't say any more.

What...? Were you born in 1977?

Let's eat.

Hey, you can't win against her, but why are you always trying to attack her?

He was also born in early 1977, just like you.

Let's talk about something else, something else!

Oh, right, have you decided on a song to sing at the Campus Song Festival?

I heard it would be held at Korea University this year. The MCs will be Lee Hoon and Park So Hyun.

I will leave first. I forgot that I have an early class.

Sunbaenim!!!

Hyung, you punk, I told you to call me Hyung!

I'm leaving.

- You made a right decision. - That's your path.

Hyung, are you going to apply for the Campus Song Festival? Oh my...

When is the preliminaries?

The day after tomorrow. Two days later from now.

I don't have much time. It's impossible for me.

I don't even have a song, so how can I have a preliminary?

If you're worried about that, you're worried for nothing.

I know a person who writes a song fast, the fastest composer in Korea.

He's the fourth year majoring in composing, and my sunbae from Suncheon High School.

He can make a song in an hour, so he's called "Mozart in Suncheon".

Really? A proper song, you mean?

Of course! So, just trust my sunbae.

He probably made the school song of my high school, too.

He's really excellent. Compared to him,

Jeong Seok Won or Kim Dong Ryul are nothing.

Then, can he really give a song to my brother?

Darn, why do you keep asking that when it's a given?

Hey, "Once you're from Suncheon High, you're forever a Suncheon High." Don't you know about the loyalty?

If I, his high school junior, ask him, he will give a good song.

Then, you're definitely winning the grand prize,

so just be ready to release your album.

You must not forget my contribution then.

Here, drink water.

I'm also nervous so much. Did you memorize the song well?

What about the song? Do you like it?

Yes, I like it. Tell your sunbae that I'm really thankful, got it?

- I got it. - I memorized it at once. It's totally catchy!

Number 52! Come in, please!

Hey, hey, hey, it's you, you, you. Don't be nervous.

Play ball!

You will be fine. They say it happens often at the early stage of the pregnancy.

You didn't bleed a lot, right?

A little while I was peeing. Didn't you say you have a plan today?

Is that plan important now? Our Sook Sook is important now!

I also paged Dad, so he will be here soon.

Where is the mother-to-be, Lee Il Hwa? Lee Il Hwa...

Dad! We're here, here!

Oh dear, because of Sook Sook, I thought my heart was dropped.

While staying in there anyway, why doesn't this baby want to stay in there longer, more comfortably?

Why in so much hurry? Because of you, I had to take a bullet taxi from Incheon before the game ends.

How did you come here during a game? This is nothing serious.

Don't worry, I let my junior coach take care of it.

We were beating Taepyungyang Dolphins,

so no problem to let him take care of it.

Mom, since Dad is here, I will leave now. I'll go home later.

Okay, hurry up, or you will be late.

Oh my god!

Wow, look at this baby kicking!

This one might become a soccer player.

Stop it already! You're embarrassing me now.

I'll get going.

She's mine, can't I touch mine? That damn wench.

Time out!

[Contest room for the preliminaries - Please be quiet.]

What happened?

- Pass? - Did you fail?

What's going on?

Did he lie? He's doing just fine.

[Konkuk University vs. Yonsei University] 0 : 7

I'm asking what happened?! Did you get in?

I failed. Disqualified.

Why? Why did you fail? What's the reason?

They said it was plagiarized.

What?!

It was plagiarized.

What is it the same as?

"Cocktail Love."

That it is...

The same.

That's right.

Somehow, the song was just so catchy.

Damn it. What? He copied none other than the song

which even won the "Golden Cup"?

Where is this bastard?!

- Haitai, hold it in! - Let go!

This bastard, I'm going to kill him!

Haitai, hold it in!

Let go of me!

Hold it in, please.

Hey, you think this is a matter that you can hold in?

Let me go.

- I said let go of me! - Haitai!

The person who should be angry the most here is Binggrae, not you.

- Fighting with him is... - Let go!

7 : 0 - Yonsei University won.

I took a taxi all the way here to Jamsil.

What a waste of money.

Good job!

Did you see that?

Hey, you did well!

Let go!

It seems I didn't have to go. You won today.

I will give you the money after your game is done.

This punk! I worked my ass off to send you to the university, but now you're here!

Na Jeong!

Na Jeong, let's go!

First love.

And my 20's.

Are there any other words which make you feel more nostalgic and fluttery?

Wake up!

Just like our first kiss, which was unpredictable,

our love that we couldn't predict at all.

Are you stupid?

It started like that.

I like you.
