["Petals" playing]
2
00:00:52,302 --> 00:00:55,305
["Petals" continues over headphones]
3
00:01:11,071 --> 00:01:12,281
[in Korean] Welcome.
4
00:01:13,615 --> 00:01:16,952
[in English]
Sorry, I didn't see you. May I help you?
5
00:01:21,123 --> 00:01:22,749
Did you make a reservation?
6
00:01:23,917 --> 00:01:24,960
What are you listening?
7
00:01:26,295 --> 00:01:28,839
Uh, it's Korean music.
8
00:01:30,007 --> 00:01:30,841
Can I?
9
00:01:32,885 --> 00:01:34,136
Yeah, of course.
10
00:01:37,306 --> 00:01:40,309
["Petals" continues over headphones]
11
00:02:00,370 --> 00:02:01,788
How long do you want to stay?
12
00:02:07,294 --> 00:02:11,089
Mm... I don't know yet.
But, uh, three nights? It's okay?
13
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,926
It's as you wish, of course.
14
00:02:13,926 --> 00:02:15,511
I need your passport, please.
15
00:02:18,096 --> 00:02:18,972
Thanks.
16
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,895
[in French] But you're French!
17
00:02:27,397 --> 00:02:32,861
RETURN TO SEOUL
18
00:02:32,861 --> 00:02:34,947
[indistinct chatter]
19
00:02:37,282 --> 00:02:39,701
- [in Korean] Cheers!
- [in Korean] Cheers!
20
00:02:47,584 --> 00:02:48,418
[Dongwan] Ah!
21
00:02:48,877 --> 00:02:49,878
[in French] Is it good?
22
00:02:51,505 --> 00:02:52,422
[Tena clears throat]
23
00:02:54,091 --> 00:02:57,636
[in French] So, Freddie,
do you really know nothing about Korea?
24
00:02:57,636 --> 00:02:58,595
[in French] Nothing.
25
00:02:59,513 --> 00:03:03,183
- What are you going to do?
- Uh, I don't have any plans.
26
00:03:04,142 --> 00:03:08,146
Nonetheless, Freddie, what would
you like to see during your stay?
27
00:03:08,939 --> 00:03:10,983
Everything. Is that possible?
28
00:03:10,983 --> 00:03:14,152
- Not in two weeks.
- No?
29
00:03:14,152 --> 00:03:15,863
Totally impossible.
30
00:03:16,905 --> 00:03:19,616
- It's funny hearing you speak French.
- [laughs]
31
00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:22,870
- [Tena] Oh.
- Ah! No, you mustn't.
32
00:03:23,620 --> 00:03:26,832
- Really?
- Let others refill your glass.
33
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:28,542
Why?
34
00:03:29,126 --> 00:03:30,919
It's insulting otherwise.
35
00:03:31,587 --> 00:03:35,007
It would mean
your friends aren't treating you right.
36
00:03:35,007 --> 00:03:36,925
Insulting? For whom?
37
00:03:38,260 --> 00:03:40,137
Mm... for both.
38
00:03:57,321 --> 00:03:58,197
Is this your mother?
39
00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:00,866
My biological mother, yes, I think so.
40
00:04:04,953 --> 00:04:06,371
It's all I have of Korea.
41
00:04:08,582 --> 00:04:12,836
A few years ago,
there was a TV programme... What was it?
42
00:04:12,836 --> 00:04:13,921
The Morning Court?
43
00:04:15,005 --> 00:04:16,923
Not that, the other, older one.
44
00:04:17,548 --> 00:04:20,135
- I Want to See This Person?
- Yes, that.
45
00:04:20,636 --> 00:04:24,681
Uh, it was a popular programme
where adoptees met up
46
00:04:24,681 --> 00:04:27,559
- with their parents.
- Actually, it's...
47
00:04:27,559 --> 00:04:29,686
[sighs] What is it called in French?
48
00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:32,272
A play on words.
49
00:04:32,898 --> 00:04:34,525
In Korean, it means both
50
00:04:34,525 --> 00:04:37,861
"I want to see this person"
and "I miss this person."
51
00:04:38,695 --> 00:04:42,199
Your story brings to mind
an old Mongolian poem...
52
00:04:43,283 --> 00:04:46,411
entitled Land of my Birth.
53
00:04:46,411 --> 00:04:47,496
Oh, yeah?
54
00:04:47,496 --> 00:04:51,792
[Tena] Dongwan did comparative studies
of French and Asian literature.
55
00:04:51,792 --> 00:04:52,835
[Dongwan] Mm...
56
00:04:54,086 --> 00:04:57,381
I can't say it correctly in French,
57
00:04:57,381 --> 00:04:59,091
but it goes something like this:
58
00:05:01,635 --> 00:05:04,471
Land where, in summer
59
00:05:05,931 --> 00:05:07,766
The earth is like
60
00:05:08,517 --> 00:05:10,143
A carpet of flowers
61
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:15,899
The song of the birds, of the land
62
00:05:16,567 --> 00:05:17,985
As far as the south
63
00:05:20,404 --> 00:05:23,365
This, all of this
64
00:05:24,658 --> 00:05:26,702
Is the land of my birth
65
00:05:29,079 --> 00:05:30,956
Wow! [chuckles]
66
00:05:30,956 --> 00:05:32,583
- [in Korean] Cheers!
- [in Korean] Cheers!
67
00:05:40,841 --> 00:05:41,675
Oh.
68
00:05:44,344 --> 00:05:46,430
[in French] Tell me, Freddie, mm...
69
00:05:46,430 --> 00:05:47,973
do you know Hammond?
70
00:05:48,724 --> 00:05:49,892
Who is Ammonde?
71
00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:52,728
[Dongwan] No, Hammond.
72
00:05:52,728 --> 00:05:54,313
It's the adoption centre.
73
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:56,690
It's a very famous place in Korea.
74
00:05:57,691 --> 00:05:59,484
Okay, and...?
75
00:06:02,237 --> 00:06:04,406
Well, you could go there.
76
00:06:06,742 --> 00:06:09,411
[in French] Are you going to
try and find your parents?
77
00:06:10,871 --> 00:06:11,705
No.
78
00:06:12,706 --> 00:06:14,666
Uh... why not?
79
00:06:16,293 --> 00:06:19,296
[lively pensive music playing]
80
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,841
Do you know what sight-reading is?
81
00:06:27,179 --> 00:06:30,516
It's when you play a score
for the first time.
82
00:06:31,058 --> 00:06:34,311
You have to be able
to analyse the music in one glance,
83
00:06:34,311 --> 00:06:36,939
evaluate the danger and jump in.
84
00:06:38,774 --> 00:06:40,275
Are you a musician?
85
00:06:40,275 --> 00:06:42,027
I was, but that's not the point.
86
00:06:43,028 --> 00:06:45,906
There are signs all over
that you don't see.
87
00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:47,366
But you can learn to read them
88
00:06:47,366 --> 00:06:49,076
and catch them when they appear.
89
00:06:50,244 --> 00:06:53,121
- What signs?
- Fear, for example.
90
00:06:57,501 --> 00:06:58,585
Want to see?
91
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:01,672
[music intensifies]
92
00:07:10,806 --> 00:07:13,016
[in Korean] Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!
93
00:07:14,351 --> 00:07:16,103
[in Korean] Cheers!
94
00:07:16,979 --> 00:07:18,021
[in French] Take a seat!
95
00:07:18,021 --> 00:07:20,566
- [in English] Can I?
- [in English] Sit, sit!
96
00:07:20,566 --> 00:07:22,651
[all laughing]
97
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:30,576
[in French]
Soju first! Then cheers! Come on!
98
00:07:32,744 --> 00:07:34,788
- [in English] Where are you from?
- [in English] Wait.
99
00:07:35,831 --> 00:07:36,665
[in French] Come on.
100
00:07:37,666 --> 00:07:38,500
Come on!
101
00:07:40,335 --> 00:07:41,336
Come on!
102
00:07:45,549 --> 00:07:49,052
[Freddie in English]
They are my friends, Tena and Dongwan.
103
00:07:49,052 --> 00:07:50,387
[in French] Is that right?
104
00:07:50,387 --> 00:07:52,514
[in English] Dongwan. They're Koreans!
105
00:07:53,098 --> 00:07:54,850
[man in Korean] So they speak Korean!
106
00:07:54,850 --> 00:07:56,935
[speaking in Korean]
107
00:07:58,228 --> 00:08:01,231
[lively pensive music continues]
108
00:08:02,441 --> 00:08:03,442
You want to join us?
109
00:08:03,442 --> 00:08:06,195
- [man 1 in Korean] Is she your friend?
- [in Korean] Uh, yes.
110
00:08:06,195 --> 00:08:09,114
[man 1] And... has she had a lot to drink?
111
00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:10,032
She's had a few.
112
00:08:10,532 --> 00:08:11,909
[man 2] What is she doing?
113
00:08:11,909 --> 00:08:13,952
[man 3] She's bringing them over.
114
00:08:13,952 --> 00:08:16,038
[men laughing and chattering]
115
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,248
- [in Korean] Hello!
- Hello!
116
00:08:18,248 --> 00:08:20,667
Can you put chairs? Put the chairs too.
117
00:08:23,045 --> 00:08:25,714
And you, you can sit here. Yeah.
118
00:08:26,507 --> 00:08:29,343
- [in French] Come.
- [French] Are you sure?
119
00:08:29,343 --> 00:08:31,053
Yes, I'm sure.
120
00:08:33,013 --> 00:08:34,932
- [in Korean] Hello!
- [in Korean] Nice to meet you.
121
00:08:41,270 --> 00:08:42,313
Wait, move.
122
00:08:42,313 --> 00:08:44,024
- Do you know her well?
- No, not at all.
123
00:08:48,445 --> 00:08:49,446
- Hello!
- Hello!
124
00:08:49,446 --> 00:08:50,531
[music fades]
125
00:08:53,116 --> 00:08:55,619
[in French] Like the guy with the fringe?
Not bad, huh?
126
00:08:56,954 --> 00:08:58,372
- No?
- No.
127
00:09:00,290 --> 00:09:03,627
[in English] One bottle of soju, please.
No, no, no, two, two, two!
128
00:09:03,627 --> 00:09:06,380
[man in Korean] Two bottles of soju
and a plate of chicken feet!
129
00:09:06,380 --> 00:09:08,674
Your friend is very original.
130
00:09:09,174 --> 00:09:10,634
[in Korean] In what way?
131
00:09:10,634 --> 00:09:12,219
[in English] My name Jiwan.
132
00:09:13,303 --> 00:09:14,429
Where are you from?
133
00:09:16,348 --> 00:09:17,474
France.
134
00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:20,310
France?
135
00:09:20,894 --> 00:09:22,855
France!
136
00:09:22,855 --> 00:09:24,147
France?
137
00:09:24,147 --> 00:09:27,609
- France!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
138
00:09:27,609 --> 00:09:29,278
France!
139
00:09:29,278 --> 00:09:30,487
[in English] Paris Baguette!
140
00:09:30,487 --> 00:09:32,239
[all laughing]
141
00:09:34,992 --> 00:09:38,370
[in French]
It's a famous chain of Korean bakeries.
142
00:09:38,370 --> 00:09:40,038
She doesn't look French...
143
00:09:40,038 --> 00:09:42,332
Who cares? Let's toast. Cheers!
144
00:09:42,332 --> 00:09:43,917
[all whoop]
145
00:09:48,881 --> 00:09:49,715
Oh.
146
00:09:50,340 --> 00:09:52,176
[man speaks indistinctly in Korean]
147
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,762
[all laughing]
148
00:09:58,473 --> 00:10:01,852
She has a typically Korean face,
doesn't she?
149
00:10:03,437 --> 00:10:06,732
[Tena in French] She says
your face is like a long-time Korean.
150
00:10:07,566 --> 00:10:11,320
- [in French] Long-time?
- [Dongwan] From ancient, ancestral Korea.
151
00:10:12,821 --> 00:10:15,908
She's right. You have pure Korean traits.
152
00:10:16,533 --> 00:10:17,367
I do?
153
00:10:18,035 --> 00:10:19,620
[in Korean] Thank you.
154
00:10:21,538 --> 00:10:23,624
I wish I could speak another language.
155
00:10:24,166 --> 00:10:26,543
[in English] Him also, original Korean!
156

157
00:10:35,928 --> 00:10:38,096
[woman in Korean] Shall we play a game?
158
00:10:38,096 --> 00:10:40,807
- [Jiwan] Yeah, let's!
- [woman] A game! Any ideas?
159
00:10:41,308 --> 00:10:43,268
Let's start with the song.

[in English] You see her.

00:10:47,397 --> 00:10:49,316
- [in English] Yeah.
- We explain.
163
00:10:49,316 --> 00:10:50,234

[in Korean] What's wrong?
179
00:12:25,287 --> 00:12:27,372
[in English] Did we sleep together?
180
00:12:28,832 --> 00:12:29,666
[in English] What?
181
00:12:31,251 --> 00:12:33,045
You and me, sex?
182
00:12:34,755 --> 00:12:35,756
Sex?
183
00:12:35,756 --> 00:12:37,382
[in French] Jeez, I can't remember.
184
00:12:38,258 --> 00:12:40,761
[in English]
Do it again, is that okay for you?
185
00:12:43,555 --> 00:12:47,142
Sex, again, you and me, okay?
186
00:12:48,060 --> 00:12:48,894
[in English] Okay.
187
00:12:51,146 --> 00:12:51,980
Come.
188
00:13:05,953 --> 00:13:08,956
[pensive music playing]
189
00:13:42,990 --> 00:13:44,658
Watch where you're going!
190
00:14:08,849 --> 00:14:12,728
[in French]
Um... do you have your adoption file?
191
00:14:13,478 --> 00:14:14,396
[Freddie in French] No.
192
00:14:15,814 --> 00:14:17,024
You don't have it.
193
00:14:18,025 --> 00:14:20,485
No, it's at my parents' place, in France.
194
00:14:20,986 --> 00:14:24,364
I see. Do you have your file number?
195
00:14:26,158 --> 00:14:26,992
No.
196
00:14:28,911 --> 00:14:31,038
Your birth name?
197
00:14:34,875 --> 00:14:38,754
Then Hammond cannot help you.
198
00:14:38,754 --> 00:14:42,758
You should have contacted us
before coming.
199
00:14:44,468 --> 00:14:48,096
I, um... came to Korea
sort of by surprise.
200
00:14:49,765 --> 00:14:51,225
What surprise?
201
00:14:55,479 --> 00:14:58,106
Could you come back another day
202
00:14:58,106 --> 00:15:00,817
with the copy of your adoption file?
203
00:15:02,444 --> 00:15:04,988
How long will you be staying in Korea?
204
00:15:06,031 --> 00:15:06,865
Two weeks.
205
00:15:08,325 --> 00:15:10,869
Two weeks. Hm...
206
00:15:12,037 --> 00:15:12,871
Uh...
207
00:15:14,081 --> 00:15:18,794
I do have this photo,
which was in my file.
208
00:15:20,754 --> 00:15:23,841
There's a number on the back.
209
00:15:34,309 --> 00:15:36,228
Mm. Wait here.
210
00:16:55,849 --> 00:16:58,519
EVOLUTION OF INTERNATIONAL ADOPTION,
1958-2004
211
00:17:06,652 --> 00:17:08,028
[footsteps]
212
00:17:08,028 --> 00:17:10,030
Sorry to have kept you waiting.
213
00:17:12,031 --> 00:17:14,535
I have your adoption file here,
214
00:17:14,535 --> 00:17:17,204
recorded in our system.
215
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:19,957
This is a copy.
216
00:17:25,045 --> 00:17:28,173
Your birth name is Yeon-hee.
217
00:17:30,092 --> 00:17:31,718
I thought it was pronounced Yon-Ay.
218
00:17:32,386 --> 00:17:33,971
- Uh...
- Does it mean anything?
219
00:17:33,971 --> 00:17:38,016
Mm. Docile and joyful.
220
00:17:38,016 --> 00:17:39,059
[thunder rumbles]
221
00:17:39,059 --> 00:17:43,313
You stayed a few months
at the Hammond in Jeonju
222
00:17:43,313 --> 00:17:45,524
before leaving for France.
223
00:17:45,524 --> 00:17:49,319
Your father dropped you off here.
224
00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:54,408
He also left his social security number
225
00:17:54,408 --> 00:17:57,619
and your biological mother's,
226
00:17:57,619 --> 00:18:01,039
in case you wanted to find them someday.
227
00:18:01,665 --> 00:18:02,666
He did?
228
00:18:02,666 --> 00:18:06,712
I have transferred this info
to our services, uh,
229
00:18:06,712 --> 00:18:11,550
and they have found addresses
for both your biological parents.
230
00:18:14,261 --> 00:18:17,264
Your mother lives in Jeonju
231
00:18:17,264 --> 00:18:19,933
and your father in Gunsan.
232
00:18:20,517 --> 00:18:21,727
Why did you do that?
233
00:18:23,353 --> 00:18:24,188
Uh...
234
00:18:24,771 --> 00:18:25,606
Mm...
235
00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:30,694
Uh, very often, adoptees who contact us
236
00:18:31,695 --> 00:18:35,407
want to find their biological parents.
237
00:18:36,617 --> 00:18:38,202
How does that work?
238
00:18:38,202 --> 00:18:41,955
I cannot give you their addresses,
239
00:18:41,955 --> 00:18:45,709
but we can send them a telegram.
240
00:18:46,210 --> 00:18:49,171
It's a standard message inviting them
241
00:18:49,171 --> 00:18:52,591
to get in touch with our services.
242
00:18:53,300 --> 00:18:56,720
Mm... if they do, we inform them
243
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,516
that their child
is trying to contact them.
244
00:19:00,516 --> 00:19:02,601
[rain pattering]
245
00:19:03,852 --> 00:19:05,062
[Freddie] What if they refuse?
246
00:19:06,605 --> 00:19:11,527
[case worker] Then the case
is definitively closed for us.
247
00:19:12,194 --> 00:19:16,240
We are forbidden by law
to contact them again.
248
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,325
[thunder rumbles]
249
00:19:19,284 --> 00:19:22,621
Do you wish to send a telegram
250
00:19:22,621 --> 00:19:24,581
to your biological parents?
251
00:19:38,512 --> 00:19:41,515
[muffled classical music playing overhead]
252
00:20:18,135 --> 00:20:19,219
[knocking on door]
253
00:20:32,024 --> 00:20:33,734
[in French] Hammond is on the phone.
254
00:20:39,364 --> 00:20:40,866
Hello, it's Frédérique Benoît.
255
00:20:40,866 --> 00:20:42,951
[woman speaking indistinctly]
256
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:44,953
Yes, hello.
257
00:20:51,793 --> 00:20:52,628
Ah.
258
00:20:53,420 --> 00:20:54,254
Really?
259
00:20:57,508 --> 00:20:58,592
Uh, yes, wait.
260
00:21:02,971 --> 00:21:04,473
Zero, one, zero...
261
00:21:06,308 --> 00:21:08,936
seven, four, six, four...
262
00:21:10,938 --> 00:21:12,898
zero, six, five, one.
263
00:21:14,274 --> 00:21:15,275
Yes, I've got it.
264
00:21:19,696 --> 00:21:21,448
No, it's okay, I can see him alone.
265
00:21:23,951 --> 00:21:25,035
Yes, okay.
266
00:21:25,661 --> 00:21:28,330
Wait. What about, uh, my mother?
267
00:21:36,046 --> 00:21:37,506
I leave in ten days.
268
00:21:42,678 --> 00:21:43,679
Okay, thanks.
269
00:21:51,061 --> 00:21:51,895
Well?
270
00:21:55,566 --> 00:21:56,942
Do you want me to call him?
271
00:22:28,098 --> 00:22:29,141
[in Korean] Hello?
272
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:32,102
[man speaking indistinctly]
273
00:22:32,102 --> 00:22:34,688
Hello, sir, I'm a friend of your daughter.
274
00:22:38,066 --> 00:22:41,195
No, this isn't Hammond.
I'm a friend of your daughter.
275
00:22:45,782 --> 00:22:46,909
Wait.
276
00:22:48,035 --> 00:22:51,371
He suggests you go to Gunsan this weekend.
277
00:22:51,371 --> 00:22:54,791
Because he works during the week,
he can't come to Seoul.
278
00:22:58,921 --> 00:22:59,963
Wait.
279
00:23:01,423 --> 00:23:02,299
[in French] Well?
280
00:23:04,593 --> 00:23:05,511
[in English] Okay.
281
00:23:07,846 --> 00:23:09,556
[Tena in Korean] Yes, that works for her.
282
00:23:12,518 --> 00:23:14,520
[rain pattering]
283
00:23:27,241 --> 00:23:28,075
[in English] Driver?
284
00:23:29,993 --> 00:23:31,245
Driver!
285
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,749
Driver! [in Korean] Mister!
286
00:23:35,749 --> 00:23:37,668
[poignant music playing]
287
00:23:38,252 --> 00:23:40,087
[in English]
Driver, let's go back to Seoul!
288
00:23:40,587 --> 00:23:43,298
Driver! Let's go back to Seoul!
289
00:23:43,298 --> 00:23:46,093
Let's go back to Seoul!
Let's go back to Seoul!
290
00:23:46,093 --> 00:23:48,345
- [speaking indistinctly]
- Right now! Let's go back!
291
00:23:49,054 --> 00:23:50,472
Let's go back!
292
00:23:50,472 --> 00:23:51,390
[in French] Wait!
293
00:23:51,390 --> 00:23:53,642
Let's go back! Let's go back!
294
00:23:53,642 --> 00:23:55,143
[in Korean] Sorry. Sorry.
295
00:23:58,188 --> 00:23:59,523
[in French] You're insane!
296
00:24:00,232 --> 00:24:01,358
What's going on?
297
00:24:02,484 --> 00:24:04,111
- Are you okay?
- [in French] Yeah, fine.
298
00:24:06,113 --> 00:24:07,781
You really scared me.
299
00:24:10,534 --> 00:24:12,786
- Sure you're okay?
- I'm fine.
300
00:24:35,475 --> 00:24:37,477
[music fades]
301
00:24:52,910 --> 00:24:54,912
[bus engines rumbling]
302
00:25:07,257 --> 00:25:08,342
[brakes hiss]
303
00:25:08,342 --> 00:25:10,427
[man speaking indistinctly over PA]
304
00:25:26,318 --> 00:25:28,320
[indistinct chatter]
305
00:25:40,290 --> 00:25:42,292
[whispering indistinctly]
306
00:25:46,713 --> 00:25:50,467
[in Korean] You are family. Understand?
307
00:25:54,930 --> 00:25:59,059
We hope you will not judge us badly.
308
00:25:59,893 --> 00:26:02,896
The situation back then was horrible.
309
00:26:03,564 --> 00:26:07,860
Korea wasn't like it is today.
310
00:26:07,860 --> 00:26:10,070
We had no other choice.
311
00:26:12,447 --> 00:26:14,783
[in French] She's talking about
why they gave you away.
312
00:26:14,783 --> 00:26:19,037
She says they regret it
and asks you not to judge them.
313
00:26:19,621 --> 00:26:26,003
We thought about
what would be best for you.
314
00:26:26,003 --> 00:26:27,629
We made this choice for your future.
315
00:26:28,714 --> 00:26:31,550
Tell Yeon-hee
that we made this decision for her.
316
00:26:32,676 --> 00:26:35,846
They thought
they were acting in your interest.
317
00:26:39,266 --> 00:26:42,436
Has she also met her mother?
318
00:26:44,062 --> 00:26:47,524
[Tena] She wants to know if
you're in touch with your Korean mother.
319
00:26:48,567 --> 00:26:49,693
That's not their business.
320
00:26:49,693 --> 00:26:51,195
[grandmother] What did Yeon-hee say?
321
00:26:51,737 --> 00:26:54,907
[Tena in Korean]
Yeon-hee's mother hasn't yet responded.
322
00:26:57,284 --> 00:27:00,495
Why can't you sleep here?
323
00:27:00,495 --> 00:27:02,456
It would be good
if you could stay one night.
324
00:27:04,208 --> 00:27:07,252
[in French] They're sad
that you won't be staying overnight.
325
00:27:08,420 --> 00:27:09,796
Tell her it's not possible.
326
00:27:12,007 --> 00:27:15,844
[in Korean] Thank you, but she says
she will come back another time.
327
00:27:17,763 --> 00:27:19,181
[in French] Do you live in Paris?
328
00:27:22,017 --> 00:27:22,893
[in English] Yes.
329
00:27:24,937 --> 00:27:27,564
[in English] Paris, parents, together?
330
00:27:28,273 --> 00:27:30,234
No, I grew up in the countryside.
331
00:27:31,527 --> 00:27:34,363
And you? You also live in Gunsan?
332
00:27:34,363 --> 00:27:37,741
Gunsan? Me? No, no, no.
333
00:27:38,450 --> 00:27:40,035
[in Korean] Auntie, uh...
334
00:27:41,328 --> 00:27:44,081
[in English] Aunt live Seoul.
335
00:27:47,876 --> 00:27:50,379
Do you have a brother or sister?
336
00:27:51,547 --> 00:27:52,381
No.
337
00:27:54,716 --> 00:27:55,717
Are you married?
338
00:27:57,386 --> 00:27:58,387
No, I'm alone.
339
00:28:08,188 --> 00:28:11,567
[in Korean] I don't think she lives
with her adoptive parents.
340
00:28:12,317 --> 00:28:13,652
She isn't married yet.
341
00:28:15,404 --> 00:28:17,072
[in Korean] Does she have a little time?
342
00:28:18,198 --> 00:28:21,994
I want to show her where I grew up.
343
00:28:23,453 --> 00:28:25,372
It's near the sea.
344
00:28:28,917 --> 00:28:32,796
[Tena in French] Your father wants to
take you to the place where he grew up.
345
00:28:45,142 --> 00:28:49,479
[Father] So you're going back to Seoul
this evening?
346
00:28:49,980 --> 00:28:52,691
[Tena in Korean]
No, my parents live near Jeonju.
347
00:28:52,691 --> 00:28:54,526
We'll sleep there.
348
00:28:57,029 --> 00:28:59,948
[Father] But what do your parents do?
349
00:29:01,408 --> 00:29:03,410
[Tena]
My father is an employee in a company.
350
00:29:03,410 --> 00:29:05,495
My mother's a French teacher.
351
00:29:06,747 --> 00:29:07,706
[Father chuckles]
352
00:29:09,374 --> 00:29:12,711
That's how you learned to speak French?
353
00:29:12,711 --> 00:29:13,629
[Tena] Yes.
354
00:29:17,007 --> 00:29:20,093
[Father] Does Yeon-hee understand Korean?
355
00:29:20,886 --> 00:29:24,515
[Tena] Oh, no.
I've just taught her a few easy words.
356
00:29:26,558 --> 00:29:29,228
[in French]
He's asking if you speak Korean.
357
00:30:07,975 --> 00:30:12,479
[Father] Did she lack anything
when she was growing up?
358
00:30:15,691 --> 00:30:19,319
[Tena] He wants to know
if you lacked anything in France.
359
00:30:20,529 --> 00:30:24,408
[in French] Tell him no.
My parents took good care of me.
360
00:30:26,326 --> 00:30:32,082
[Tena in Korean] She says
her adoptive parents were good to her.
361
00:30:38,338 --> 00:30:41,341
["Petals" playing]
362
00:32:28,949 --> 00:32:30,951
[indistinct chatter]
363
00:32:35,873 --> 00:32:36,874
Take a look.
364
00:32:37,916 --> 00:32:38,750
[in Korean] No.
365
00:32:38,750 --> 00:32:39,793
[in English] No need.
366
00:32:39,793 --> 00:32:42,004
See if there's anything you need.
367
00:32:43,922 --> 00:32:44,923
They're pretty.
368
00:32:48,510 --> 00:32:49,344
How much?
369
00:32:49,887 --> 00:32:51,388
[in French] I hate ballet shoes.
370
00:32:52,890 --> 00:32:55,893
[ripples susurrating]
371
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,366
[Father]
That island is called Mouse Poop Island.
372
00:33:11,909 --> 00:33:14,703
We call it that because it's so small.
373
00:33:15,537 --> 00:33:17,789
When the tide is low,
374
00:33:17,789 --> 00:33:21,960
you can walk to the island,
you don't need a boat.
375
00:33:23,295 --> 00:33:25,380
When I was a kid, me and my friends
376
00:33:25,881 --> 00:33:30,093
would spend afternoons fishing there.
377
00:33:30,844 --> 00:33:35,474
The adults had to come and get us by boat.
378
00:33:36,308 --> 00:33:39,478
They would bawl us out every time.
379
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,232
But actually, fishing...
380
00:33:43,899 --> 00:33:48,904
is their whole life
for the people who live here.
381
00:33:50,197 --> 00:33:54,618
My grandfather was a fisherman,
my father was a fisherman,
382
00:33:55,452 --> 00:33:57,663
and I was, too, for a long time.
383
00:33:59,498 --> 00:34:02,000
Until they built the seawall.
384
00:34:02,793 --> 00:34:07,172
The biggest seawall in the world,
they said on TV.
385
00:34:08,005 --> 00:34:09,550
Today,
386
00:34:10,050 --> 00:34:13,929
your father repairs
air-conditioning units.
387
00:34:19,101 --> 00:34:22,688
Yeon-hee's mother's name is Son Mija.
388
00:34:24,606 --> 00:34:27,109
[in French]
Your mother's name is Son Mija.
389
00:34:33,824 --> 00:34:37,870
We tried to live
with my mother in Gunsan...
390
00:34:39,621 --> 00:34:42,708
but Mija preferred to go
and live in the city,
391
00:34:43,500 --> 00:34:46,003
so she left.
392
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,467
Your mother wanted
to live in the city, so she left.
393
00:34:55,512 --> 00:34:56,471
[in French] Is that all?
394
00:34:57,306 --> 00:34:58,348
Wait.
395
00:34:58,348 --> 00:34:59,641
To this day...
396
00:35:00,893 --> 00:35:03,395
I never forgot Yeon-hee.
397
00:35:05,063 --> 00:35:06,565
I wondered...
398
00:35:07,441 --> 00:35:09,151
if she was alive, where she lived.
399
00:35:11,028 --> 00:35:13,822
He never stopped thinking about you.
400
00:35:15,490 --> 00:35:19,411
He wanted to know if you were alive
401
00:35:19,411 --> 00:35:21,705
and which country you were living in.
402
00:35:26,627 --> 00:35:28,629
[cell phone beeping]
403
00:35:36,470 --> 00:35:38,931
My father has arrived, we're very late.
404
00:35:52,945 --> 00:35:55,864
Is there anything
you want to do this evening?
405
00:35:58,033 --> 00:35:58,867
No, nothing.
406
00:36:00,285 --> 00:36:01,870
Just fall into your bed.
407
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,257
[cell phone buzzes]
408
00:36:23,308 --> 00:36:24,518
[Tena] It's your father.
409
00:36:27,020 --> 00:36:29,523
"Yeon-hee, I am so unhappy.
410
00:36:30,607 --> 00:36:35,279
I hope you now understand
why I had to let you go.
411
00:36:36,405 --> 00:36:39,950
I regret the harm I have caused you.
412
00:36:42,911 --> 00:36:46,832
I cry every day since..."
413
00:36:46,832 --> 00:36:47,749
Tena.
414
00:36:49,751 --> 00:36:50,794
Stop, please.
415
00:37:08,770 --> 00:37:09,605
[in Korean] Eat.
416
00:37:19,531 --> 00:37:21,867
- [in Korean] It's delicious.
- [in Korean] It's delicious!
417
00:37:23,577 --> 00:37:25,162
[Father] You are welcome here.
418
00:37:25,871 --> 00:37:29,833
I'm so happy
that we can spend three days together.
419
00:37:30,709 --> 00:37:33,504
[in English]
Your father say, "Welcome home.
420
00:37:34,838 --> 00:37:39,593
We very happy together three days."
421
00:37:40,677 --> 00:37:43,388
- Thank you.
- [in Korean] Thank you!
422
00:37:43,889 --> 00:37:45,724
My wife and children
423
00:37:46,350 --> 00:37:48,602
knew nothing of your existence.
424
00:37:50,729 --> 00:37:55,984
Hm, I did not want to cause them sorrow.
425
00:37:55,984 --> 00:37:59,363
Not so fast, big brother,
I will translate.
426
00:38:01,198 --> 00:38:05,077
[in English] Father no speaking about you
427
00:38:05,077 --> 00:38:10,040
because family sad.
428
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,792
Yeah. Mm.
429
00:38:13,085 --> 00:38:16,338
But when I received
the letter from Hammond,
430
00:38:16,338 --> 00:38:18,465
I told them everything.
431
00:38:19,091 --> 00:38:24,054
But Hammond called after everything speak,
432
00:38:25,013 --> 00:38:28,267
all speak about you.
433
00:38:35,816 --> 00:38:39,069
Why didn't you take hangwa cakes?
See if there are any left.
434
00:38:44,491 --> 00:38:45,701
Take that.
435
00:39:01,633 --> 00:39:06,180
[Freddie in English]
Um... is it, uh, my mom? Mija?
436
00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:09,516
[Aunt in Korean] Who is that?
437
00:39:14,897 --> 00:39:17,399
[Father]
She must be the caregiver at Hammond.
438
00:39:19,526 --> 00:39:21,069
[Aunt in English] No. Uh...
439
00:39:21,653 --> 00:39:22,487
Nurse.
440
00:39:23,572 --> 00:39:24,406
Nurse.
441
00:39:24,907 --> 00:39:28,452
[Father] I don't have a single photo
from back then.
442
00:39:29,870 --> 00:39:33,248
Uh, your photos, all lost.
443
00:39:33,749 --> 00:39:34,583

of the two of you dancing.

My Lord, thank you
for having sent Yeon-hee to France
454
00:40:49,491 --> 00:40:51,785
so that she had the chance
to get a better education.
455
00:40:52,995 --> 00:40:55,455
Thank you for having forgiven us all...
456
00:40:56,874 --> 00:41:01,003
and for having guided her to this house.
457
00:41:02,045 --> 00:41:04,756
I have always thought about Yeon-hee.
458
00:41:04,756 --> 00:41:08,802
Now I understand
that it was the Lord's way.

[in English] Can you ask him
to stop sending me messages?
473
00:42:10,447 --> 00:42:13,200
He sends me every day messages in Korean.
474
00:42:14,243 --> 00:42:17,663
He even calls me at night,
and I think he was really drunk
475
00:42:17,663 --> 00:42:19,414
and I didn't understand anything.
476
00:42:20,999 --> 00:42:22,709
Tell him that he has to stop.

00:42:24,628 --> 00:42:27,673
[in Korean] She's talking about
the messages you sent her.
478
00:42:27,673 --> 00:42:29,550
Did you call her when you'd been drinking?
479
00:42:33,303 --> 00:42:37,349
I'd like you to come
and live here with us.
480
00:42:38,976 --> 00:42:40,602
This is your home.
481

I will help you to marry.
482
00:42:46,358 --> 00:42:47,442

[Aunt] Mm.

00:43:07,546 --> 00:43:09,798
I have my family
and my friends over there.
489
00:43:11,258 --> 00:43:13,093
I'm not going to live in Korea.
490
00:43:17,014 --> 00:43:18,849
Okay. Okay.
491
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:24,188
[in Korean] She says she doesn't want
to live in Korea and that she's French.
492
00:43:24,813 --> 00:43:28,108
Tell her I understand.
493
00:43:28,901 --> 00:43:30,319
[in English] Your father understand.
494
00:43:31,486 --> 00:43:36,533
But everything will be easier for her
when she learns to speak Korean.
495
00:43:37,117 --> 00:43:39,745
If you learn Korean, it will be easier.
496
00:43:40,662 --> 00:43:44,583
[Aunt] If you learn Korean, easy for you.
497
00:44:23,539 --> 00:44:26,667
EVERY TIME MY HUSBAND DRINKS,
HE CRIES AND SPEAKS OF YOU.
498
00:44:26,667 --> 00:44:29,878
THE NEXT DAY, HE FORGETS EVERYTHING.

Sorry, my baby.

Thank you for bringing her back.

Thank you, Lord.

Our Father...
513
00:45:55,964 --> 00:45:59,176
Tell her that I can drive her.
514
00:45:59,718 --> 00:46:00,552
Stop it.

Hello, darling.
520
00:47:06,285 --> 00:47:08,287
I'm so happy to hear your voice.

- How are you?
-Can you see me?
522
00:47:12,207 --> 00:47:13,500
Yes, I see you fine.
523

How's it going?
524
00:47:17,337 --> 00:47:18,797
Are you still in Seoul?

Uh, it's different.
528

Everything's different here.
529
00:47:29,391 --> 00:47:30,642
Are things okay with Dad?
530
00:47:31,393 --> 00:47:35,147
Yes. He's going to be sad.
He's just gone out.
531
00:47:35,689 --> 00:47:38,317
You should have warned us
you were going to call.
532
00:47:38,317 --> 00:47:41,486
We called you loads of times.
533
00:47:42,112 --> 00:47:45,532
I know,

to understand what you did.

were cancelled due to the typhoon.

because I had two weeks of holiday.

The next flight they offered
with the same company was to Seoul,

If you must know,
I wanted to fuck everything up today.
713
01:02:46,808 --> 01:02:48,769
- I know that feeling.
- You do?
714
01:02:50,312 --> 01:02:52,981
- So how do you go about it?
- I fuck everything up.
715
01:03:05,786 --> 01:03:06,620
Hear that?
716
01:03:07,412 --> 01:03:08,247
What?
717
01:03:10,624 --> 01:03:11,542
The music.
718
01:03:13,377 --> 01:03:14,586
What music?
719
01:03:16,964 --> 01:03:18,173
It's coming from inside.
720
01:03:23,178 --> 01:03:24,555
I love this song.
721
01:03:31,019 --> 01:03:32,020
I hear it.
722
01:03:34,147 --> 01:03:34,982
[Freddie] Ah.
723
01:03:41,905 --> 01:03:43,031
[André in English] Thank you.
724
01:03:46,243 --> 01:03:47,661
I'm 27 today.
725
01:03:49,079 --> 01:03:51,248
[in French] I hate birthdays.
726
01:03:51,832 --> 01:03:54,710
I always ask myself
the same question on my birthday.
727
01:03:56,420 --> 01:03:57,421
What question?
728
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,049
Did my mother...
729
01:04:02,176 --> 01:04:03,510
think about me?
730
01:04:04,511 --> 01:04:05,596
Somewhere?
731
01:04:09,850 --> 01:04:10,851
Cheers.
732
01:04:21,111 --> 01:04:22,905
- Well?
- Excellent.
733
01:04:25,073 --> 01:04:27,492
Tell me about the weapons.
734
01:04:27,492 --> 01:04:29,411
Weapons! Are you really interested?
735
01:04:29,411 --> 01:04:32,831
- Yes.
- Weapons aren't the exciting part.
736
01:04:32,831 --> 01:04:34,958
It's the stakes you have to face.
737
01:04:35,501 --> 01:04:40,255
It usually ends in a hostess bar
at 4 in the morning.
738
01:04:40,964 --> 01:04:45,636
There are only men in this profession,
but you would be brilliant at it.
739
01:04:45,636 --> 01:04:47,679
Yeah? Why?
740
01:04:48,764 --> 01:04:50,807
Because you have to be able
to not look back.
741
01:04:56,522 --> 01:04:58,607
Is this a booty call or a job interview?
742
01:05:03,362 --> 01:05:04,446
Shall we go to your room?
743
01:05:05,364 --> 01:05:07,908
- No dinner first?
- I don't have time.
744
01:05:10,118 --> 01:05:10,953
Okay, then.
745
01:05:12,746 --> 01:05:14,164
But...
746
01:05:16,250 --> 01:05:17,543
I'm not 20 anymore.
747
01:05:21,088 --> 01:05:24,091
[pensive music playing]
748
01:06:15,475 --> 01:06:16,351
[in English] Hey.
749
01:06:18,770 --> 01:06:19,771
I need to pee.
750
01:06:23,775 --> 01:06:24,776
[music stops]
751
01:06:29,072 --> 01:06:30,866
[toilet flushes]
752
01:06:30,866 --> 01:06:32,951
[in Korean]
I thought you'd be back before midnight.
753
01:06:33,619 --> 01:06:35,495
[Freddie] Oh, sorry, I had a Tinder date.
754
01:06:40,334 --> 01:06:41,585
[in Korean] Had a good day?
755
01:06:42,794 --> 01:06:44,129
Yeah, fine.
756
01:06:45,506 --> 01:06:46,715
[in English] Did you finish it?
757
01:06:46,715 --> 01:06:49,468
- [in English] Yes. Want to see?
- Sure.
758
01:07:40,185 --> 01:07:43,021
It's beautiful, Kay-Kay. I love it.
759
01:07:44,189 --> 01:07:45,190
You're sure?
760
01:07:46,900 --> 01:07:48,068
Yeah, I'm sure.
761
01:07:55,784 --> 01:07:56,910
[in Korean] You look tired.
762
01:07:57,578 --> 01:08:00,497
No, it's okay,
I just need a ten-minute nap,
763
01:08:00,497 --> 01:08:02,165
and after, I'll be fine to go out.
764
01:08:04,084 --> 01:08:06,086
[muffled chatter]
765
01:08:31,319 --> 01:08:32,446
[in English] Surprise.
766
01:08:34,281 --> 01:08:35,115
[in Korean] Wait...
767
01:08:37,033 --> 01:08:38,327
Where are you going?
768
01:08:45,917 --> 01:08:47,461
You know I hate my birthday.
769
01:08:48,086 --> 01:08:49,087
[in English] I know.
770
01:08:51,298 --> 01:08:53,966
But they came for you.
771
01:08:58,846 --> 01:08:59,680
[in Korean] Please.
772
01:09:07,147 --> 01:09:10,149
["Dirch Die Haare Die Stirn"
playing over speakers]
773
01:09:10,149 --> 01:09:12,236
[indistinct chatter and laughter]
774
01:10:50,918 --> 01:10:52,878
[in French] Happy birthday!
775
01:10:52,878 --> 01:10:55,547
- [in French] You really fooled me earlier.
- Sorry.
776
01:10:56,048 --> 01:10:56,924
[Freddie] Thanks.
777
01:11:01,762 --> 01:11:03,972
[in English]
She's my little sister, Lucie.
778
01:11:03,972 --> 01:11:06,642
[Lucie] No, I'm not her little sister.
779
01:11:09,186 --> 01:11:10,062
[in French] Come here.
780
01:11:22,824 --> 01:11:25,744
- [in French] You okay?
- I think I'm a little strung out.
781
01:11:41,176 --> 01:11:42,386
Aren't you going to open it?
782
01:11:43,470 --> 01:11:45,514
I'll open it tomorrow.
783
01:11:46,223 --> 01:11:48,642
[Lucie] There's a lot of people.
Am I the only one from work?
784
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:52,354
Ask Kay-Kay, but I hope so.
785
01:11:56,316 --> 01:11:57,401
What are you looking for?
786
01:11:58,861 --> 01:12:01,530
My bottle of...
787
01:12:02,573 --> 01:12:03,615
absinthe.
788
01:12:03,615 --> 01:12:05,033
I can't find it.
789
01:12:05,033 --> 01:12:06,118
[Lucie] Want me to help?
790
01:12:16,086 --> 01:12:16,920
Freddie?
791
01:12:17,796 --> 01:12:20,007
I've got an appointment with Hammond.
792
01:12:26,471 --> 01:12:28,390
How long have you been here?
793
01:12:29,683 --> 01:12:30,893
Three months.
794
01:12:33,020 --> 01:12:34,730
I told you to go there right away.
795
01:12:36,190 --> 01:12:40,444
But I was told not to rush
into the first meeting
796
01:12:40,444 --> 01:12:41,987
with the biological parents.
797
01:12:41,987 --> 01:12:43,405
If there is a meeting.
798
01:12:50,078 --> 01:12:54,291
I was told to learn the culture,
speak the language,
799
01:12:54,291 --> 01:12:57,336
talk to other adoptees.
800
01:13:04,259 --> 01:13:05,427
Come and see.
801
01:13:11,683 --> 01:13:14,686
[tense music playing]
802
01:13:29,076 --> 01:13:30,953
[Freddie in Korean]
What are you looking for?
803
01:13:30,953 --> 01:13:31,870
The toilets.
804
01:13:32,996 --> 01:13:33,830
Downstairs.
805
01:13:41,380 --> 01:13:43,382
[singing in Korean]
806
01:15:25,442 --> 01:15:28,445
[tense music continues]
807
01:15:38,372 --> 01:15:39,456
[Lucie] What's wrong?
808
01:15:42,793 --> 01:15:44,169
[in French] My mother responded.
809
01:15:50,425 --> 01:15:51,593
Your biological mother?
810
01:15:55,472 --> 01:15:57,266
After six telegrams in two years.
811
01:16:01,436 --> 01:16:02,271
Today?
812
01:16:04,314 --> 01:16:05,524
No, ten days ago.
813
01:16:07,526 --> 01:16:09,319
A letter addressed to Hammond.
814
01:16:15,868 --> 01:16:17,452
She said she didn't want to see me.
815
01:16:22,833 --> 01:16:24,501
It was a short message.
816
01:16:30,340 --> 01:16:31,466
Twenty-two words.
817
01:16:54,239 --> 01:16:55,073
[Freddie whoops]
818
01:16:56,575 --> 01:16:59,328
[intense dance music playing]
819
01:16:59,328 --> 01:17:00,913
[people whooping and yelling]
820
01:19:02,201 --> 01:19:04,286
[in Korean] Thanks for the radish kimchi!
821
01:19:05,662 --> 01:19:06,663
I ate it all!
822
01:19:07,789 --> 01:19:08,624
What?
823
01:19:11,585 --> 01:19:13,670
Thank you for the radish kimchi!
824
01:19:18,133 --> 01:19:19,551
You did the right thing!
825
01:20:16,984 --> 01:20:20,529
YEON-HEE, WHERE ARE YOU?
826
01:20:20,529 --> 01:20:24,449
YEON-HEE, WHERE ARE YOU?
IN KOREA? I WANT TO SEE YOU.
827
01:20:24,449 --> 01:20:28,370
I DON'T DRINK LIKE I USED TO.
IF YOU'RE HERE, I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU.
828
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:40,549
YEON-HEE, I SAW THEY TALKED
ABOUT FRANCE ON THE NEWS.
829
01:20:40,549 --> 01:20:46,471
ARE YOU IN PARIS? KOREA?
I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOU ARE.
830
01:20:55,355 --> 01:21:01,028
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
831
01:22:18,981 --> 01:22:20,983
[line dialling]
832
01:22:29,741 --> 01:22:32,369
- [André] Well, well, Freddie.
- André.
833
01:22:32,995 --> 01:22:34,121
Already missing me?
834
01:22:56,935 --> 01:23:01,899
FIVE YEARS LATER
835
01:23:26,507 --> 01:23:27,549
[Freddie in French] Maxime.
836
01:23:32,012 --> 01:23:32,846
What should I wear?
837
01:23:34,723 --> 01:23:36,600
Do you think the dress is too formal?
838
01:23:37,768 --> 01:23:39,645
[in French] You're overthinking it.
839
01:23:39,645 --> 01:23:40,729
Go with your gut.
840
01:23:41,688 --> 01:23:43,690
No, seriously. Which do you prefer?
841
01:23:45,150 --> 01:23:46,568
Shit.
842
01:23:48,070 --> 01:23:48,904
What?
843
01:23:52,533 --> 01:23:54,201
We forgot your ballet shoes.
844
01:23:56,328 --> 01:23:57,663
Idiot!
845
01:24:01,166 --> 01:24:02,668
No, really,
846
01:24:02,668 --> 01:24:06,713
you haven't seen him for seven years,
wear something comfortable.
847
01:24:07,214 --> 01:24:08,048
That's all.
848
01:24:10,467 --> 01:24:11,301
Come and see.
849
01:24:35,742 --> 01:24:36,869
Thanks for being here.
850
01:24:38,704 --> 01:24:41,707
[pensive music playing]
851
01:25:08,025 --> 01:25:09,985
Could you text my parents
to say we've arrived?
852
01:25:10,527 --> 01:25:13,155
- Shouldn't you do that?
- No, they love you.
853
01:25:13,155 --> 01:25:14,323
I have to call André.
854
01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:16,158
[in English] Okay.
855
01:25:22,581 --> 01:25:24,583
[video chat dialling]
856
01:25:26,168 --> 01:25:28,921
- [André] Well? How are you feeling?
- Okay, so far.
857
01:25:29,463 --> 01:25:31,590
It's funny
to do something here again, huh?
858
01:25:33,425 --> 01:25:35,469
You're even more elegant than in Paris.
859
01:25:36,345 --> 01:25:38,472
- Do we go together tomorrow?
-No.
860
01:25:38,472 --> 01:25:40,807
I'll go ahead to sort the file
with the Koreans.
861
01:25:41,975 --> 01:25:43,560
- Okay.
- No, wait.
862
01:25:44,311 --> 01:25:47,064
I assure you,
they know you haven't made a decision.
863
01:25:47,814 --> 01:25:49,775
No one wants to force you.
864
01:25:49,775 --> 01:25:53,695
I told them our deal.
Tomorrow is just a first meeting.
865
01:25:54,196 --> 01:25:55,030
No pressure.
866
01:25:55,656 --> 01:25:57,866
Yeah, I know your "no pressure."
867
01:25:57,866 --> 01:26:00,786
But they really like your profile.
868
01:26:01,620 --> 01:26:04,081
Know what
the missile-division boss calls you?
869
01:26:04,081 --> 01:26:05,707
[in English] The James Bond Girl.
870
01:26:06,375 --> 01:26:09,336
- Okay, André. Bye.
- [in French] Bye.
871
01:26:21,473 --> 01:26:22,891
This place is toxic for me.
872
01:26:24,810 --> 01:26:25,811
I'll need you.
873
01:26:26,812 --> 01:26:28,856
Don't worry. I'm here.
874
01:26:29,565 --> 01:26:31,066
I'm serious, Maxime.
875
01:26:44,329 --> 01:26:45,163
Delicious.
876
01:26:48,834 --> 01:26:51,044
This happened in France?
877
01:26:51,545 --> 01:26:53,088
[in Korean] No, in Thailand.
878
01:26:53,922 --> 01:26:56,466
[in English] We've got the accident there,
879
01:26:56,466 --> 01:26:59,761
so I decided to have
the operation in Bangkok.
880
01:27:01,805 --> 01:27:03,557
The accident was in Thailand.
881
01:27:03,557 --> 01:27:06,059
[Freddie]
But tell him it's nothing serious.
882
01:27:06,768 --> 01:27:08,437
And your friend okay?
883
01:27:09,605 --> 01:27:12,733
[in English] Oh, yeah. Only scratches.
884
01:27:12,733 --> 01:27:13,734
Uh...
885
01:27:13,734 --> 01:27:16,820
It's Freddie who was driving
the scooter, of course.
886
01:27:18,071 --> 01:27:18,906
Look.
887
01:27:37,716 --> 01:27:38,550
[in Korean] Touch.
888
01:27:44,723 --> 01:27:45,557
Touch it.
889
01:28:17,130 --> 01:28:19,383
Why didn't you tell us?
890
01:28:24,179 --> 01:28:26,640
Eat. Eat.
891
01:28:35,274 --> 01:28:36,275
Um...
892
01:28:37,150 --> 01:28:39,278
[in English] I'm sorry for restaurant.
893
01:28:39,278 --> 01:28:42,114
I don't know you stop meat now.
894
01:28:42,114 --> 01:28:44,616
Oh, it's okay, it's fine. Don't worry.
895
01:28:49,037 --> 01:28:50,914
It's so good. Really.
896
01:28:51,707 --> 01:28:54,334
It's, um-- [in Korean] It's delicious.
897
01:28:54,334 --> 01:28:55,502
[in Korean] It's delicious!
898
01:28:59,423 --> 01:29:00,257
[in English] Yes.
899
01:29:05,846 --> 01:29:06,847
Thank you.
900
01:29:18,984 --> 01:29:19,818
Thank you.
901
01:29:20,986 --> 01:29:22,988
[in Korean] I don't drink alcohol.
902
01:29:24,489 --> 01:29:26,325
- Really?
- [Freddie] No.
903
01:29:27,743 --> 01:29:29,494
No meat, no alcohol?
904
01:29:29,494 --> 01:29:30,412
No.
905
01:29:31,288 --> 01:29:33,582
[in English]
It's not for ecological reasons,
906
01:29:33,582 --> 01:29:36,960
but, um, I never felt so good in my life.
907
01:29:39,004 --> 01:29:39,838
Yes or no?
908
01:29:41,089 --> 01:29:43,008
[in Korean] Alcohol, stop.
909
01:29:43,842 --> 01:29:45,135
Alcohol, stop?
910
01:29:45,135 --> 01:29:46,220
Alcohol, stop!
911
01:29:46,887 --> 01:29:48,013
[in English] Okay.
912
01:29:48,639 --> 01:29:50,098
[in Korean] Alcohol, stop?
913
01:29:51,225 --> 01:29:52,059
[in English] Okay.
914
01:29:52,976 --> 01:29:54,228
[in Korean] Tomorrow, no more.
915
01:29:54,228 --> 01:29:55,938
[in French] He'll stop tomorrow.
916
01:29:55,938 --> 01:29:58,398
- [in English] Tomorrow, stop.

917

He's changed since the last time.
918
01:30:11,787 --> 01:30:14,581
He almost looks younger. Weird.
919
01:30:18,877 --> 01:30:20,921

920

[Maxime] Yes.

923

[Father] What does she do?
928
01:30:52,995 --> 01:30:55,706
Uh, he ask, what is your job?
929
01:30:56,290 --> 01:30:59,251
[in Korean] Mm... I sell missiles.
930
01:30:59,251 --> 01:31:00,752
"Missiles"?
931
01:31:00,752 --> 01:31:03,255
[in English] She sells missiles.
932
01:31:04,131 --> 01:31:06,008
- Oh, missiles.
- [Maxime] Missiles.
933
01:31:08,093 --> 01:31:10,971
[in English] I work for a French group,
934
01:31:10,971 --> 01:31:13,390
which collaborates
with many other countries
935
01:31:13,390 --> 01:31:16,185
like Taiwan or Colombia.
936
01:31:16,185 --> 01:31:20,898
And we help them to improve
their national defence system.
937
01:31:20,898 --> 01:31:23,775
She sells weapons to make war?
938
01:31:24,443 --> 01:31:25,986
For the war?
939
01:31:27,070 --> 01:31:29,114
No, for peace. In theory.
940
01:31:29,698 --> 01:31:33,327
And you come to Korea to sell missiles?
941
01:31:33,327 --> 01:31:34,703
Actually...
942
01:31:36,538 --> 01:31:39,708
Freddie thinks maybe it's,
uh, her destiny.
943
01:31:39,708 --> 01:31:40,876
[Aunt] Destiny?
944
01:31:40,876 --> 01:31:45,714
Yeah, she left for France
when she was a baby.
945
01:31:45,714 --> 01:31:49,551
And now that she's an adult,
she's coming back
946
01:31:50,052 --> 01:31:55,474
to defend South Korea against North Korea.
947
01:31:57,476 --> 01:31:58,477
[Aunt] Hm...
948
01:31:59,353 --> 01:32:00,646
[in Korean] From what he says,
949
01:32:01,480 --> 01:32:07,027
it's Yeon-hee's destiny
to help South Korea against North Korea.
950
01:32:08,987 --> 01:32:10,364
Really?
951
01:32:16,411 --> 01:32:19,665
[in French] My father wants to play
some music he wrote for me.
952
01:32:21,041 --> 01:32:24,878
He recently started to play the piano.
He composes during his free time.
953
01:32:25,796 --> 01:32:27,840
What a coincidence.
954
01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:30,551
Yeah, weird.
955
01:32:36,306 --> 01:32:39,309
[gentle piano melody

956
01:33:59,515 --> 01:34:04,102
Not bad for someone self-taught.
957

What?
958
01:34:15,197 --> 01:34:20,285
[in English] I'm happy that me and him,
we can exchange normal text messages now.
959

[in English] He is happy too.

Is his health okay?
961
01:34:26,750 --> 01:34:29,044
Does he still drink a lot?
962
01:34:29,044 --> 01:34:32,381
No, uh, he drinks less.
963
01:34:46,019 --> 01:34:47,271
Where did he go?
964
01:34:47,271 --> 01:34:49,147
He looking for a taxi.
965
01:34:53,569 --> 01:34:56,071
It's here, let's go.

Come on, the taxi's here!

Nice to meet you.

01:35:27,561 --> 01:35:28,687
Uh, taxi.

976
01:36:05,974 --> 01:36:07,059
To the guesthouse?
977
01:36:18,445 --> 01:36:21,073
It's striking
how much you resemble your father.
978
01:36:26,286 --> 01:36:28,121
[Freddie in Korean]
Take us to the Itaewon area.
979
01:36:28,914 --> 01:36:30,666
[driver in Korean]
So you're partying tonight?
980
01:36:31,041 --> 01:36:31,875
[Freddie] Yes.
981
01:36:35,254 --> 01:36:36,713
We're not going to the guesthouse?
982
01:36:38,590 --> 01:36:40,551
[in French] No, I changed my mind.
983
01:36:58,527 --> 01:37:01,029
I could wipe you from my life
with a snap of my fingers.
984
01:37:03,490 --> 01:37:04,324
What?
985
01:37:07,786 --> 01:37:09,329
I could wipe you from my life...
986
01:37:10,664 --> 01:37:11,790

Hello? This is Frédérique Benoît.
991
01:39:22,129 --> 01:39:23,547
You just sent me a message.
992
01:39:29,887 --> 01:39:31,013
Yes, still in Seoul.
993
01:39:36,727 --> 01:39:37,769
Yes, I can come.
994
01:39:39,688 --> 01:39:40,939
No, I can come today.

JEONJU
996
01:40:22,648 --> 01:40:24,650
Is this where I was abandoned?
997
01:40:25,817 --> 01:40:30,072
No, the old Jeonju Hammond
was in another neighbourhood.
998
01:40:30,572 --> 01:40:35,494
The building was destroyed
and Hammond moved here in the 2000s.
999
01:40:36,912 --> 01:40:38,080
You're very young.
1000
01:40:43,168 --> 01:40:45,963
This is your original adoption file.
1001
01:40:46,630 --> 01:40:49,007
You received a copy in Seoul.
1002
01:41:15,534 --> 01:41:17,077
Are we sure she will come?
1003
01:41:17,786 --> 01:41:19,705
We can never be certain,
1004
01:41:19,705 --> 01:41:24,376
but the tone of your mother on the phone
suggests she will come.
1005
01:41:26,795 --> 01:41:28,505
You came early.
1006
01:41:29,256 --> 01:41:30,257
Yes, that's true.
1007
01:41:32,926 --> 01:41:34,386

[in Korean] I've brought you some hot tea.
1010
01:41:45,272 --> 01:41:46,398
[in Korean] Thank you.
1011
01:42:09,796 --> 01:42:13,133
[in French]
I'll now explain what will follow.
1012
01:42:14,343 --> 01:42:20,349
When your mother arrives,
she will be settled in the room next door.
1013
01:42:20,349 --> 01:42:24,478
It's more or less the same layout
and size as this one.
1014
01:42:25,521 --> 01:42:29,233
Then someone will tell us
that she has arrived.
1015
01:42:30,943 --> 01:42:34,863
I will go to speak
to your mother separately
1016
01:42:34,863 --> 01:42:36,949
to prepare her for the meeting.
1017
01:42:37,616 --> 01:42:39,868
Like we are doing now.
1018
01:42:41,495 --> 01:42:46,166
When your mother is ready,
I will bring her here.
1019
01:42:46,166 --> 01:42:50,587
Do you accept
that I be present during the meeting?
1020
01:42:52,673 --> 01:42:54,132

- Wait. Wait.
- Yes?

Tell me.
1027
01:43:37,426 --> 01:43:42,097
I thought that once parents had
refused to see their child...
1028
01:43:44,349 --> 01:43:47,686
Hammond could send no more telegrams.
1029
01:43:48,187 --> 01:43:49,855
Yes, that's the law.
1030
01:43:52,024 --> 01:43:53,066
But then...
1031
01:43:54,610 --> 01:43:59,031
why did you accept my request
for my mother?
1032
01:44:02,701 --> 01:44:05,078
Perhaps we have employees
1033
01:44:05,078 --> 01:44:08,248

of an adopted child.
1034
01:44:11,543 --> 01:44:12,586
