All language subtitles for Melancholia E06

ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS
AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

Seung-yoo.

I'm not following…

What can I do?

If there's an irresistible problem,

which I can't hold myself back
from solving…

I don't know

what you're saying.

This is a gift.

So why are you showing me this photo?

I'll let you have it.

I think you'll find it useful.

Under one condition.

What condition?

Speak up.

Please give me
the list of expected midterm questions.

Oh, my goodness, Ye-lin.

You have matured
after going through a painful phase.

Now you present me with a deal.

This photo is quite amusing.

But I don't want what you're offering.

Ye-lin.

When it comes to deal-making,

you don't sell it
like an insurance policy.

It could be useful like you said.

Come to me when that's the case.

Have you shown…

that picture to anyone else?

No.

All right. Keep it under wraps.

Until the day you'll find it useful.

If there's an irresistible problem,

which I can't hold myself back
from solving…

Can I really show you…

everything about me?

-Hello?
-Did you get off work?

I'll pick you up on Sunday at 11:30 a.m.

What?

You forgot?

We're supposed to have lunch
with my family.

Okay.

You sound different.

I'll see you on Sunday.

INVITING YOU TO RYU SUNG-JAE
AND JI YOON-SU'S WEDDING

It seems Senator Sung's daughter
goes to Asung High.

-Yes.
-I saw you on TV.

Try to choose your words carefully
in public from now on.

Sung-jae has
a bright future in the ministry.

The daughter of
the Jangsung Financial Group chairman

and the sons of the Hyunsung Daily
president go to that school too.

Conduct yourself in a proper way.

Father.

Do you know how I sprained my ankle?

A student in my class
intentionally damaged my bike's brakes.

But I was more worried

about the student who did it

than my broken bicycle.

What are you trying to say?

The privileges these teenagers have

thanks to their rich parents
could be a curse in disguise.

What do you think
it'll be like when we have kids?

Wouldn't you want to do everything
you can for them?

Loving your child and providing them
with whatever they need is different

from cheating to get your child
ahead of other kids who worked hard.

Don't be so sure about that.

You have to have kids of your own
to really know how you'll act

in those situations as a parent.

What's happening between us?

It feels like our relationship
is going through a lot of bumps.

Is this normal before a wedding?

Yoon-su.

-Yes.
-I would feel relaxed around you.

But it's hard…

to feel like that lately.

-You don't have anything to say?
-I don't know.

I'm having a lot of thoughts
as our wedding approaches.

I wonder if all couples go through this.

-You're going home, right?
-I'm going to visit my dad.

I have to give him our wedding invitation.

I'm sorry.

Go without me.

I have to go to the Blue House
with the minister.

I'll get off here then.

-Drive safely.
-Okay. I'll call you.

This is new.

I've never seen this method before.

What problem will you tackle next?

The teacher got me to love math again.

Without Ms. Ji, math has no purpose.

I'm in love

with Ms. Ji.

Are you going to prove that?

Proving it won't change anything.

I just…

want to say it.

My proposition is the truth.

A proposition without the need
to prove it's true.

Well, there's an emptiness to that.

SALESIO SANATORIUM

2017 CONGRESS OF PROBABILITY THEORY
DATE: OCTOBER 28, 2017, SAT.

MR. PAIK SEUNG-YOO,
WE CORDIALLY INVITE YOU TO THE CONGRESS

How about submitting your proof
to the Academic Archives?

-Archives?
-Yes.

Based on my knowledge,
your proof uses a new approach.

Why don't you submit it?

2017 CONGRESS OF PROBABILITY THEORY
DATE: OCTOBER 28, 2017, SAT.

Mom.

Dad.

I'm getting married.

RYU SUNG-JAE & JI YOON-SU

Come to the math classroom
before your classes begin.

You visited

my dad on Sunday, didn't you?

-Yes.
-Thanks for showing him the proof.

I was invited to a congress.

I submitted my proof
to the Academy Archives.

Really?

That's good news.

I thought about what you said.

Yes.

There are irresistible problems
that you can't help but try to solve.

If you continue doing math,
you'll encounter such problems frequently.

But

you'll lose yourself

if you pour your heart
and soul into one problem.

It could destroy or damage you.

What if I find…

a problem that's worth it
in spite of the risks?

Don't look for a problem.

Let the problem find you.

Wait until you're strong

and can weather the storm
while tackling a problem.

I believe you'll reach that level
one day, Seung-yoo.

Thank you for the gift,
but I don't think I can accept it.

Hey, stop right there. You're dead.

Sorry.

-Who's going to the snack bar? Hyung-do.
-Hyun-jae.

-Seung-yoo.
-Seung-yoo. Let's go.

Come on.

COMMON TEST PROBLEMS

Damn it.

You have to go with the flow.
Studying won't help.

That's what I'm good at.

What? Why are you stopping?

What is it?

-Go ahead without me.
-Okay.

-I forgot my wallet.
-You're always forgetting it.

You came quickly. Pretty anxious, right?

You still like Ms. Ji?

She's getting married. Snap out of it.

-Give it.
-Does the teacher know that you like her?

What? Did you confess your feelings?

You're out of your mind. That's insane.

-Where is the framed photo?
-What will you do?

Her wedding is coming up. She'd be
so embarrassed if the students saw it.

I'll give it back. But not for nothing.

Give it up.

You already got bad grades
in the 10th grade.

No matter how hard you try,
you can't fix that.

What's it to you?

Don't try so hard in the midterms.

If you don't, I'll give it back.

Or else, I'll hang the photo
in the classroom tomorrow.

You piece of shit.

Go ahead and punch me. Try it.

If the teacher asks me
why you punched me, I'll tell her why.

You punched me
because you like Ms. Ji so much.

You have until tomorrow.

Think it over.

Hey Gyu-young.

Listen carefully.

Don't cause any problems for Ms. Ji.

What if I do?

I'll make sure nobody can harm her.

Like how?

Who has the most power in this school?

It's the top student.

The student with the top score.

And we'll find out in the midterm exams.

SEUNG-YOO'S FATHER

It's a fresh new season
and a new semester.

You must be very busy
with the upcoming midterm exams.

I would very much appreciate it
if you would come by our cafe.

How is Seung-yoo doing at home?

I don't get to see him lately

because we're not holding math club
activities during midterms.

-Well.
-These days,

I have to pinch myself to see
if I'm dreaming or not.

Seung-yoo is studying so hard
to prepare for the midterms.

-He is?
-It's thanks to you.

I can't thank you enough
for what you've done.

-I didn't really do much--
-At his age,

they're motivated by their teachers

and try to live up to expectations.

When my son focuses on something,

he is obsessed over it.

So please give him guidance, Ms. Ji.

The midterms are coming up.

-Do you know this?
-No.

-What about pi?
-What is pi?

I only want to find a way to your heart.

Get back to studying.

NO STUDENTS ALLOWED DURING MIDTERMS
ASUNG HIGH SCHOOL

I have an announcement to make
concerning the exam.

Please ensure that

there are no mistakes in the questions.

Until the exams are over,

please be careful that
no text questions are leaked.

-Ms. Yoo.
-Yes?

-Could you check this draft?
-Just a minute. Let me finish this first.

I also have a class to go to.
I need your help now.

Let the teacher assistant

take care of that if you're done
organizing the answer sheet.

Okay.

-Ms. Park.
-Yes?

Could you put these answer sheets
in the right envelopes?

Sure.

Students may come in here,
so please finish it before the break.

I will.

-How can I help, Mr. Han?
-I attached the file

but it's not uploading.

2017 MIDTERM EXAM FOR THE 2ND TERM
11TH GRADE MATH ANSWER SHEET

MR. HAN MYUNG-JIN

Could you stop taking selfies?

I told you to stop posting
stuff on social media.

You're going to exercise?

All right. Have a good workout.

What did she just do?

Ye-lin.

I got it. Here.

-What are these?
-I found a way.

Did you think I would do nothing?

Now memorize it quickly.

Mr. Han Myung-jin says
that the math questions are super hard.

You have to memorize them all, okay?

-Honey, could you get me a sports drink?
-Okay. Coming.

Do your best, okay?

Now pass out the test sheets.

MIDTERM FOR 2ND TERM
MATH, KOREAN HISTORY

Don't turn around. Just pass the sheets.

All right. Did everyone get a test sheet?

If you have, then begin.

MATH: PAIK SEUNG-YOO

MATH: SUNG YE-LIN

She did well.

Wow. I'm so doomed.

The Math test was too hard.

What the? Amazing. A perfect score!

-You did it?
-Seung-yoo. That's crazy.

How did you get all of it correct?

-A perfect score?
-Yes.

He's my friend.

Wow. That's amazing.

No matter how hard I try,
I can only score 20 points.

ANSWERS

MOM

How did the test go?

I got one wrong.

-Why?
-The answer was different.

How could it be different?

Did you make a mistake?

No, I wrote it correctly.

But the answer is different.

Oh, my! Why are you so surprised?

Ms. Ji wants to see you.

What do you mean? She changed the answer?

For problem number four.

We got the numbers mixed up.

I found out
when Ms. Ji spotted the mix-up.

When did this happen?

Yesterday. After you went home.

Did you call for me?

Yes.

You studied hard, didn't you?

I graded your exam and you did very well.

But…

for problem number four…

How did you get your answer?

Why?

The answer you gave could not be
possible with the given number.

In the problem, the given number was 13.

But you randomly used the number eight.

How did this happen?

I think I made a mistake.

Of course, mistakes happen.

But mistaking the number 13 for 8 is…

Ms. Ji.

Can I see you for a minute?

What?

I'd like to see you for a minute.

You're dismissed.
Let's talk about this later.

-Why didn't you discuss that with me?
-What?

You changed the answer
to problem number four.

Even if there was an error,
you should have told me about it.

I thought fixing the error was more urgent
because the exam was coming up.

Why were you talking to Ye-lin?

Weren't you asking her
something about her answer sheet?

I had something to ask
after grading her answers.

-I'll excuse myself.
-Discuss things with me first.

We're both math teachers,
so let's keep each other informed.

What?

What are you talking about?

You think Ms. Ji knows what we did?

I'm not certain that she knows,

but she could raise this matter.

If she asks Ye-lin again,
tell her to say it was a mistake.

No matter what.

How could you fumble this?

Why did she change the answer after
we got copies of the answer sheet?

What is this about?

-Oh, my.
-Who is it?

Wait.

Mr. Han Myung-jin?

Honey.

What did you just say?
You got copies of the answer sheet?

Honey, you see. Well, let me explain.
It's not what you think it is.

What am I thinking then?
And what did you do?

Hurry up and tell me!

Gosh. Why did this happen?

So that's the answer
before you corrected it.

And this is Ye-lin's answer?

Yes.

It's identical.

How could she submit that answer
when she was given the number 13?

Unless she copied this answer.

I mean… I'm not suggesting…

You don't suspect
the answer sheet was leaked, do you?

Ye-lin… Gosh, this is really bad.

What should we do about this?

Maybe she made a mistake.

You don't think that's possible?

We could find out
by checking her test sheet.

The students jot down
their calculations on it.

If it were a mistake,
we'd see it in her calculations.

You're right.

Then let's ask her
to bring her math test sheet

after the midterms are over.

After the exams are over?

We have to let her finish
taking the other exams.

If we were to question her now,

she could complain to us afterward
that we ruined her midterms.

That will be a big headache for us.

Okay.

My wife committed an unforgivable mistake.

If you kick out Ye-lin

and report my wife to the authorities,
I'll accept your decision.

They use the term "admissions hell."

I like those two words.

In such balls of fire,

Asung will rise
amidst a hell where fountain water boils.

We will be the sharpest blade
forged in such an environment.

Creating a heaven
where everyone is happy is meaningless.

Whoever survives hell
is crowned the true winner.

I wanted Ye-lin to be
the blade I could wield

after surviving this hellish competition
by using any means necessary.

To become that,

she should have never been caught.

You knew all along?

Did you think I'm not aware of everything
that goes on in this school?

-She wants the math answer sheet?
-Ye-lin's mom asked for it.

But I didn't agree to it. I would never.

Let her have it.

-Pardon?
-Give her the answer sheet.

But Director…

But…

Leave me out of this.

I didn't see nor hear anything.

Please let her off.

Please cover up this matter
for Ye-lin's sake.

If I say yes?

In the name of my daughter…
No, I'll swear upon my life

and never disappoint you ever, Director.

I promise.

-Jeez.
-Goodness.

All of my scores went up.

Why does he keep improving?

I did better this time.

-What about you?
-Did you study alone?

My scores always fall.

Hey, wait a minute.

Seung-yoo is incredible.

-Seung-yoo? Why?
-What? He aced all the subjects!

-Who did?
-That's crazy.

-What? Seriously?
-He aced all the subjects?

Move it.

I'm going insane.

You need a strong ankle
to score a penalty kick.

To pull off a knuckle kick,
you need strong ankles.

It's Seung-yoo!

Seung-yoo.

-He aced all the subjects.
-A perfect score? For real?

You're awesome.

-Hey, what is this?
-What is it?

What is it?

-It's a photo of Ms. Ji.
-Where did this come from?

Who took the photo?

But why is it here?

-But who put it there?
-That's strange.

What if I find a problem
that's worth it in spite of the risks?

Don't look for a problem.

-What are you doing?
-It's yours?

Where are you going?

There are irresistible problems

that you can't help but try to solve.

Let the problem find you.

Wait until you're strong

and can weather the storm
while tackling a problem.

I believe you'll reach that level
one day, Seung-yoo.

Thank you for the gift,

but I don't think I can accept it.

It's free.

My son, Seung-yoo, did very well
on his midterms, so I'm treating everyone.

-Congratulations.
-Enjoy.

It's free.

I think you should be worried.

Why? Did something happen?

Seung-yoo got a perfect score
in every subject, didn't he?

-Yes.
-Only Seung-yoo aced the math test.

Did Ms. Ji give him special lessons?

Special lessons?

There's a strange rumor going around.

-Don't do that.
-Why not?

How could the worst student
get the top score overnight?

There's something going on.

Well, Gyu-young says that

Seung-yoo and Ms. Ji
have a special relationship.

It was like they were on a date.

What the hell!

-Jang Gyu-young, where are you?
-Ma'am.

Ms. Min.

Where is Gyu-young?

-What's the meaning of this?
-You really have to ask?

Are you afraid that
I might cause harm to your son?

Then why did he spread
baseless rumors about my son?

Well…

It's a rumor going around school.

A rumor, you say?

Well then I want to hear
this from Gyu-young.

I want to hear directly from him.

Now listen.

Seung-yoo confessed

his feelings to Ms. Ji
and the whole school knows.

Gyu-young saw everything. Got it!

-Gyu-young saw everything?
-Yes!

I don't believe it.

He got so mad after losing to Seung-yoo
that he must be seeing things.

-That's ridiculous, lady.
-What?

Your son's math score dropped a lot
in a test that Seung-yoo aced.

He should blame himself for being dumb.
Why is he lashing out at my son?

-You must have lost it, lady!
-That's right, I've lost it!

You better erase those chat messages.

If you don't, I'll sue you for defamation.

And tell Gyu-young to watch
his mouth. Understand?

Or else, I'll rip his mouth apart.

If you throw ash on someone else's garden,

don't be surprised
if someone ruins your garden.

Oh, my goodness.

My gosh!

Jeez.

These women say whatever they want.

It's preposterous.

I'm home.

Seung-yoo.

Nothing happened, right?

Nothing's going on
between you and Ms. Ji, right?

It's a false rumor, right?

-What rumor?
-My gosh.

The school parents are saying
ridiculous things about you.

They said you confessed
your feelings to Ms. Ji.

You did?

Tell me whether you did it or not!

It's not like that.

Nothing should be happening.

If your dad were to find out about this…

Be careful.

Everyone thinks you're the competition
after your grades improved. Understand?

Ms. Ji is…

getting married soon.

That's good news.

We should congratulate her.

Let's go to her wedding.

-When is it?
-This Saturday.

I can't go.

Why not?

Good morning.

Good morning.

WE WILL BE HOLDING
THE CONGRESS OF PROBABILITY THEORY

ASUNG HIGH STUDENT PAIK SEUNG-YOO'S
LECTURE WILL TAKE PLACE

Ms. Ji.

Can we talk for a minute?

Well, about Ye-lin's answer.

I thought the principal should know,

so I briefed the vice-principal about it.

I see.

What did he say?

He said there's no need to check
Ye-lin's test sheet.

He said you'll understand the reason soon.

What does that mean?

I'm not sure.

An academic score review
committee will hold a meeting.

-I guess they'll discuss the matter.
-Academic score review committee?

And your wedding is tomorrow.

So don't let this matter bother
you ahead of your big day.

2017 ACADEMIC SCORE REVIEW COMMITTEE

First of all,

I would like to apologize.

Listen to me very carefully.

Okay.

I'll have the whole matter disappear.

Not a trace…

of everything.

I have something to inform the committee

regarding the 11th grade
math midterm test.

PRINCIPAL OH JIN-TAEK

Yes, it's me.

Can you talk for a minute?

There was a problem with the math test?

Tell me more about it.

Ye-lin.

Could you bring
your math test sheet to me?

-Why?
-I'd like to check something.

I threw it away.

You threw it away? The test sheet?

Ms. Ji! We've got a big problem!

Just a minute.

Let's talk about this later.

What is it?

They're going to re-administer
the math test. For the entire 11th grade.

I'll have to come up with new problems.

Redo the test? But why?

-Re-administer the test?
-If they take a second test,

the results from the first test
won't count.

So nobody will care about the first test.

Right.

That's right.

You're so smart.

I'm on my knees right now.

You can't see, right?

I wish you could see me on my knees.

This is the last time I'm doing this.

Of course.

Now you just have to watch what I do next

to repay you.

Get your hopes up.

-A second test?
-Why do we have to?

Be quiet. Stop talking.

Why do we have to take a second test?

There was a problem that required
a method which you didn't learn yet.

You're taking a second test
to make things fair. Got it?

Which problem was it?

-Number 15.
-Number 15?

Now look.

So you used L'Hopital's Rule
to solve it, right?

-Yes.
-Yes.

I'm sure all of the students
used the rule.

It's such a simple and useful formula

that it's not mentioned
in the math textbook.

Because it wasn't taught in math class,
this problem doesn't belong here.

What if I got it right by guessing?

The chances…

I didn't use L'Hopital's Rule to solve it.

What? Who said that?

I didn't use the rule to solve it.

Why you! You punk. Gosh.

Then how did you solve it?
Did you use the Taylor series to solve it?

Teacher, Seung-yoo aced the math test.

If Seung-yoo didn't use
the rule to solve it

then isn't everything fine?

-Exactly.
-That's right!

Be quiet!

Who said you could interrupt me?

What difference does it make
that Seung-yoo got a perfect score?

You're mad about taking a second test
since you aced the first one?

Is getting good grades everything?
Moral character is important too.

Well, you did nothing wrong.

Blame it on that teacher who constantly
praises you for being special.

Why you, punk!

Look down.

I said look down!

See me after class is over.

You can't solve it without using the rule.

I'm so sorry. I gave that problem.

I thought they could use the rule.

He said there's no need to check
Ye-lin's test sheet.

He said you'll understand the reason soon.

You think you're a math genius?

What?

I've seen students like you before.

But with that attitude of yours,
you won't go far.

Because teachers praise you
for being smart,

you think you're the best, right?

You were nothing.
You had one little streak, that's all.

Hey, I'm still talking to you!

Since the limit value exists as k,

we can substitute x with ex in tangent x
with ex and use the addition formula.

You can find the value of k.

Without using L'Hopital's Rule.

Seung-yoo! Can I give you a hug?

Thank you. You saved my butt.

I'm so relieved now.

There's no need to give
the students a second test.

I'll treat you to a nice lunch, okay?

Seung-yoo.

Thanks.

Thanks to you, you stopped
something that was very unfair.

What do you mean?

You don’t need to know.

I'll try harder to handle
such school matters

that can sometimes be outrageous.

Is there some kind of problem?

By the way, do well in your lecture.

You can do it.

COUNSELING OFFICE

Ye-lin?

Ms. Ji wants to see me
to ask me something.

But you're taking a second test. So why?

I don't know either. What should I do?

Buy some time. I'll be there soon.

Is there anything you'd like to tell me?

-Ms. Ji.
-Yes. Go ahead.

Mr. Han said we're taking a second test.

The first test won't count,
so why do we have to talk about this?

There is

no second test, Ye-lin.

There's no second test. This will count.

That's why we need to have this talk.

-You can't administer a second test?
-I'm sorry.

Seung-yoo pointed out an issue.

What kind of issue?

The thing is,

he was able to solve the problem
using an unconventional method.

I've never seen anyone
solve it like that before.

How were you able to write down

the answer as it was
before I corrected the error?

Ye-lin.

I don’t know what you're saying.

-You really don't?
-No.

You need to know.

You should be explaining yourself.

That's the right thing to do.

I wish you'll explain everything to me.

I'll ask you one last time.

You have nothing to say?

Ye-lin!

Ye-lin!

-Excuse me, can you help me?
-What's the matter?

-She needs to see the school nurse.
-I'll carry her on my back.

-Stay alert.
-Isn't that Ye-lin?

I think so.

-What's going on?
-Ye-lin.

-Ye-lin.
-This way.

-She's having trouble breathing.
-Okay.

Ye-lin.

-Ye-lin!
-Ms. Yoo. Please stay back.

Calm down.

-Ms. Yoo, you can't do that.
-Move it!

Who are you?

-Let go, Seung-yoo.
-Let go of my arm!

Let go of her!

Seung-yoo!

Let go of her now.

You're totally
out of your mind, aren't you?

So it's true about
the relationship you two have.

-You must be proud of him, right?
-Ms. Yoo.

What is going on here?

Is it true?

Did a school parent physically assault
a teacher in our school?

Apologize to Ms. Ji immediately.

-It's not like that.
-If it's not,

would you like the police to get involved?

I wasn't myself for a moment.

I apologize to you, Ms. Ji.

When I saw Ye-lin fainting,

I couldn't think straight.

Please forgive me.

I heard that

you had an issue with an incorrect answer
that Ye-lin gave in the math test.

-But you see…
-Ms. Yoo.

-Could you wait outside for a moment?
-What?

Please step outside.

What did you mean by that?

About Seung-yoo and you?

You didn't know?

-That's--
-Let's talk about that matter with me.

Are you okay?

Well, you know what Ye-lin's mom
said to the teacher earlier…

About you and Ms. Ji… It's not…

-I meant to say it's not true.
-I know.

-Untrue.
-Exactly.

-How could it be true?
-No, it can't.

You're in shock.
So Ms. Ji must be shocked too.

-I know.
-And it's her wedding tomorrow.

This is so upsetting.

There won't be a second
math test for the 11 graders.

Mr. Han told me.

Since the math test results are valid,

I think there should be an inquiry
to unearth any cheating in the exam.

All right.

We'll conduct a comprehensive review
to uncover any negligence

regarding the exam questions
and whether there were lax measures

in storing the answer sheets
and exam questions.

We'll also call Ye-lin
and her parents to school for a meeting.

After which, we'll give you
the full report, Ms. Ji.

I'll wait for the results then.

Hello?

-Congratulations, Yoon-su.
-Yoon-su, join us!

No way.

You got off work, right?

I'm heading home.
You're still hanging out?

Yes. They won't let me go home.

Would you like to stop by here?

No, I'll head home and rest.

We have to wake up early tomorrow.

Then go home first. I'll stop by later.

Okay. Don't drink too much.

Are you Ms. Ji Yoon-su?

Welcome.

-What is the occasion?
-Sit down. Have some wine.

We briefly saw each other
at the competition.

We couldn't talk much so that was too bad.

You haven't changed at all.

I'm the only one who's getting older.

Why did you want to see me?

I heard you had something to say.

Isn't it hard to teach
at Asung High School?

Do you remember our teacher,
Mr. Kim Jung-yoon?

Mr. Kim!

JI YOON-SU

Come along.

Why didn't you come?

You said you'd give a witness statement
during the investigation.

Why didn't you show up?

NOH YEON-WOO

Because of us…

-Because of us, Mr. Kim…
-It's not because of us.

He did this to himself.

You still don't understand?

Our school doesn't need good teachers.

Only teachers that
the school needs remain.

It didn't matter
whether a teacher taught well.

Mr. Kim was a whistleblower
that my dad had to get rid of.

After that day,
I couldn't look you in the eye.

Do we have to talk about that now?

I don't want the same thing to
happen to you.

Director Noh Jung-ah

is worse than my dad
in how she treats teachers.

So?

If you need my help, ask me anytime.

That is, if you trust me.

Are you any different?

I'm asking because I truly want to know.

I want to be different from them.

Okay, I understand what you're saying.

I'll see you around.

VICE-PRINCIPAL CHOI SUNG-HAN

We have a problem.

Ms. Ji just met
with Principal Noh Yeon-woo.

Honey, I'm back.

You're back?

Take a look.

What do you think?
Seung-yoo can wear this tomorrow.

-Did he try it on? Does it fit?
-Not yet.

I told him to come home.
If it doesn't fit, I'll exchange it.

Ms. Ji. What brings you here at this hour?

I have something to tell you.

I couldn't gift-wrap it.

Tell Seung-yoo

to give a fine lecture tomorrow.

This is a nice pen but it's old.

What?

Math JHW?

-Let me have it.
-Why?

I'll give it to Seung-yoo myself.

Wait a minute.
These are someone's initials.

Hi, Seung-yoo.

Seung-yoo, take a look at this.

Ms. Ji came by and wanted
you to have this.

She said good luck.

But what does this fountain pen
have to do with tomorrow's lecture?

MATH JHW

When did she come by?

Ms. Ji!

Seung-yoo.

Congratulations…

on your wedding.

Thanks.

I'm cheering for you.

You'll do well tomorrow, Seung-yoo.

You're wearing that number. 1729.

Do you like math?

I teach math at Asung High School.
My name is Ji Yoon-su.

You're Paik Seung-yoo,
not Paik Min-jae anymore.

I'm glad to meet you.

-Big brother.
-Big brother.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Please take good care of Ms. Ji.

-She's very delicate.
-And she's strong.

Live happily ever after!

-Hello. We came.
-hello.

-Welcome. Thank you for coming.
-Congratulations.

-I'll see you later.
-Okay.

Hello.

-We're Yoon-su's coworkers at Asung.
-hello.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

-Ms. Ji!
-Congratulations!

Congratulations on your wedding!

-Let's take photos.
-Hurry up!

One, two, three.

Be quiet.

Oh, my! How on earth!

You're so pretty!

I saw the groom and he was so handsome.

You two make a cute couple.

-Thank you.
-Congratulations!

Thanks, guys.

-Hello.
-Congratulations.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you for coming.

This is the Director at Asung High
and this is the Vice-principal.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

Please go in.

Oh, my, Hello.

-Hello, Ms. Min.
-Hi.

MATH JHW

The wedding ceremony of Ryu Sung-jae
and Ji Yoon-su will begin soon.

All wedding guests,
please be seated at your table.

Recently, an interesting paper

on the estimation lemma
of a random Poincaré conjecture

inside a 3-sphere
has been uploaded to the archives.

It was written by a high school student.

I introduce you to Paik Seung-yoo.

Here come the bride and the groom!

There's an error in the proposition.

What the?

What? It's Seung-yoo.

What? Seung-yoo?

Congratulations

on your wedding.

The mood on the set
is very different today.

I'm quite excited.

It's because of the special guest
we'll be having in a short moment.

That's right.
Our next guest has an impressive resume.

When he was ten,
he was invited to take courses at MIT.

He got his GED at the age of 18,
and went to Hankook University.

In 2020, he won the Henri Poincaré Prize
European Math Society Prize,

Ramanujan Prize, and other prizes
in the world of mathematics.

And he participated in the International
Mathematician Olympics in 2021.

So what were his results?

He's the first Korean
and the youngest person over

to enter the 2021 IMO
which was held in St. Petersburg

where he became the recipient
of the Lucifer Prize,

the Nobel Prize of Mathematics.

We introduce you to Paik Seung-yoo,
our guest of honor.

I've been trying to contact
that person you asked about.

-But I'm not making any progress.
-Noh Jung-ah?

It says she's looking forward
to seeing you.

Do you have plans to meet her?

I don't think it's a good idea.

Do you think he wouldn't know?

Nice to meet you. I'm Paik Seung-yoo.

Unless he had an ulterior motive,

why would he turn down offers
from universities to come here?

I need you to look into something.

We have another question
from someone called "Calculus."

I waited for a particular moment.

The moment when the answer would find me

instead of having to look for the answer.
