We'll be back at
the hotel in about an hour.

Thank you for spending
the last few days with me.

I trust that you are satisfied
with my service. Don't forget

to scan the code in front to leave us a tip.

Our driver Mr Chen
has been working hard too.

Give what you like.
I’m always happy to take more!

Look at you!

Looking good, you son of a bitch.

Your watch looks expensive.
How much did it cost?

Not much.

How much did you give the couple?

Haofeng wouldn't scrimp on such things.

Exactly!

- Who's looking after the kid?
- My mum.

- Long time no see, dear classmates.
- Here, have a seat.

Finally a day off tomorrow.
We're going skiing, will you join us?

Why not? Tomorrow sounds good.

- Join us?
- Tomorrow I'm...

(Korean)
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.

(Korean) We’re gathered here today
because of two very special people.

Today our groom Mr Li Chao
and our bride Ms Yoon Hee Jung

will join their hearts
and lives in matrimony.

(Korean)
Let's welcome our beautiful couple

with a round of applause.

(Korean) Our newlyweds!

Please give them
a warm round of applause!

(Korean) Thank you to our friends

for sharing this special day with us.

We're so grateful.

Next, the most important moment
in a traditional Korean wedding.

The couple will toss this water dipper.

If it lands upright, they'll have
a girl, upside down, a boy.

Come on, let's see if they will
have a son or a daughter.

Here we go, toss it forward.

(Korean) One, two, three.

(Korean) There we go,

a round of applause!

An adorable little girl it is.

She'll be as pretty as her mum.

Again.

A son!

(Korean) And now let's bless them
with our well wishes.

(Korean) Music, please!

Hello, is this Mr Li Haofeng?

This is Pujiang Mental Health
Counseling Service.

You missed your appointment last week.

- Wrong number.
- Should I rebook a time?

Careful everyone, the ground is slippery.

Mind the steps.

Goodbye.

Bye, come again!

(Korean)
You haven't ordered much lately.

(Korean)
It's the pandemic. Business is bad.

(Korean) Auntie says to put it
on the tab, like last time.

(Korean) Again?

(Korean) Okay, fine.

(Korean) It's alright.

(Korean) Thanks.

Here.

Fixed your motorbike?

It's hanging in there. I'll make do.

Not getting a new one?
No girl will ride your crappy bike.

A new one? With what money?

Welcome to New World Travel's
Yanbian Traditions One Day Tour.

We are about to visit
a Korean cultural village.

Inside, you'll see various
traditional Korean buildings.

Nine of these century-old dwellings
were moved from nearby villages.

By the way, does everyone know
how to say hello in Korean?

Annyeonghaseyo.

Korean drama fans will know the word.

But the Korean community in China

says it a little differently.

Annyeong hashimnikka.

Shall we try that?

Annyeong hashimnikka.

Kamsahamnida, thank you all.

Stick close to me.

Come on, this way.

- You're cutting in again!
- We have a packed itinerary.

(Korean) If I do it again,
I will never get married!

Here you'll see the process of making
traditional rice cakes and kimchi.

And you can all have a go. How's that?

Great!

I can help you take one.

It's fine. I rarely take photos of myself.

Alright.

Everyone, we'll have an hour here.

You can rent traditional
Korean costumes over there.

We'll meet back at the entrance
in an hour. See you later.

Remember this blue flag.

Visiting Yanji on your own?

That's unusual. Here on business?

I was at a wedding.

Want some?

The boss here brewed it. It's not for sale.

It's fine, thanks.

How long have you been a tour guide?

Three years.

Do you like it?

What?

This job.

Whether I like it or not,
I still have to do it.

Can you help us take a picture?

Sure.

Just over here.

Hug?

Here you go.

See if it's okay.

Looks good, thanks.

- Thank you.
- You are welcome.

You should dress more warmly. Here.

One to a table, don't mess up.

Thank you, miss.

Thank you.

Could you move in, sir?

Help look after this handsome guy.
I'll order more for you.

Do you like fried chicken wings?

Yes.

Here you go, sir.

Thanks.

Have some. No need to be polite.

Eat some more.

What would you like, son?

Call for me if you need anything else.

Still sleeping?

Hi, Nana!

You're here.

Come on.

Coming.

Let's have dinner tonight.

So you can tell me you fucking love me?

What nonsense!

So are you coming?

Sure, you've asked a hundred times.

There has been a spate
of local thefts and burglaries.

Initial investigations point
to a single perpetrator.

The suspect crossed the border
from North Korea illegally.

Thousands of yuan
have been stolen so far.

A manhunt is underway to arrest
the defector, and the public

is urged to look out for and report
any suspicious individuals.

Hello, Mr Li Haofeng?
This is Pujiang Mental Health...

Wrong number.

Don't forget you should come...

Don't be so wishy washy.

- I'll pick you up tonight.
- No need.

- What are you looking for?
- The restroom.

Over there.

Xiao, come and help out!

Yes, I'm coming.

Genuine ginseng
from Changbai Mountain.

Makes a great gift, or better still,
keep it for yourself.

Feel free to browse. It's not
how much you pay, it's what you get.

- Here madam, have a free sample.
- Thank you.

Sir, two of these a day
will fill you with energy.

Thanks.

Try one?

It's free to taste.

- Here, try one.
- Thank you.

Honey from Changbai Mountain.

Have something sweet
to stop your frowning.

If it's good, show me some support.
Business is bad since the pandemic.

Look how handsome
you are when you smile.

A jar of honey, 30 yuan.

My phone's missing.

Please check again
if you have taken it by mistake.

Thank you all.

We've already looked before.

Nothing here.

I'm really sorry.

I phoned the restaurant
but they haven't found it either.

It's alright.

You're cut off
from the world without your phone.

Yes, can't get anything done.

I don't have much cash on me.

Here, take this.

- Thanks.
- You haven't lost your ID, I hope?

- It's upstairs.
- That's okay, then.

I'm really sorry.
Please don't raise this to my agency.

I won't.

You go ahead.
I'll make my own way back.

Are you free tonight?

Poor guy from my tour lost his phone,
so I asked him to join us.

Hao...

Haofeng.

This is my friend, Han Xiao.
Just call him Xiao.

Our lunch stop was at his restaurant.
Wasn't the food quite mediocre?

I'm starting to think you...

I'm tired from talking all day.
Take care of our new friend.

I help out at our family restaurant.
And you?

I work in finance. In Shanghai.

That's too fancy for us.

Ice cubes in winter?

Look at his watch.

We can't afford it even in our next life.

Recommend my tours to your friends.
Send them to me.

Same for our restaurant.

Thanks!

Rock, paper, scissors!

Go on!

I can't dance.

Yes you can.
Let's show you some Yanji passion.

It's this one.

The keys?

Here.

Let me do it.

The one with the ring.

I keep shoes on at home.

We've known each other so long,
but you've never invited me home.

(Korean) You're not special enough.

You're still drinking?

Don't you have work tomorrow?

After working two weeks straight.
I'm taking a break.

Hello, dear friends...

How are you? I'm your tour guide, Nana.

Welcome to beautiful Yanji, my home.

Our New World Travel Agency

has put together a truly unique
Yanbian tour for you.

It's your dream come true.
You won't want to go home.

Hey, you've got a guitar.

- Play for us.
- I don't know how.

My last flatmate left that.
She went to work in Korea.

Susan has a pair of
god-gifted dancing shoes

They can take her away
from this weary world

Like the smoke of a cigarette

It was a cloudy night

When she kissed me
and floated into the heavens

Honey, goodbye

What a night

What a beautiful night

So beautiful

How it makes me weep

What's the matter?

I have an early flight.

Back to Shanghai?

You won't make it.
There's only one flight a day.

- Then what do I...
- Stay longer.

Have a few more days of fun.

Will this work?

Of course. Now you get to experience
my one-day tour of Yanbian.

BORDER WITH NORTH KOREA:
NO TRESPASSING

- That's right.
- And then?

And then you go.

The pedal...

Go!

BORDER AREA:
OBSERVE ALL BORDER RULES

Know what's over there?

Another country.

Shout across.

(Korean) I love you!

Are you crazy?

Idiot.

- You want some, Auntie?
- No, thanks. You guys go ahead.

Looks good, but let's see how it tastes.

It's much better than yesterday.

You kidding? Cooking for tourists
is the same as cooking for friends?

Haofeng, are you a tourist or a friend?

Shower?

What?

You like guys?

No.

Sorry.

I injured myself when I was 18.

Are you asleep?

No.

It's hideous, no?

How did you get hurt?

Wilfulness.

You still feel like it?

Come over?

(Korean) It's going to snow,
be careful on the road.

(Korean) Okay.

Is Nana going out with you?

Don't pretend you care, you brat.

Give me that, I'll ask for you.

Hey, you actually sent that?

I'll punch you.

(Korean) Come on, get going.

Hold on!

You forgot your homework, silly boy.

Come back early to help out.

- You hear me?
- Yes, yes.

You haven’t done any of it?

Don't pretend you care!

You ought to take school seriously
and study hard.

But you didn't either.
And you seem fine to me.

Why would you want to be like me?

It's probably the takeaway.

Come on,
I'll show you more places today.

What are we doing at a bookshop?

WINTER OLYMPICS

BALLET ON ICE: FIGURE SKATING

Let's play a game.

Shall we play a game?

What kind of game?

Let's see who can steal
the thickest book.

How childish.
Have you even read a book?

She has no guts. How about you?

Have you seen me chicken out before?

The last one out also loses.

Stop there!

180 yuan.

A dictionary?

Pay up. You get to learn to read.

Me?

But I won!

I can read.

I bet you didn't think
such places existed in Yanji.

Come on, let's dance.

You two go ahead, I'll sit for a bit.

Go on.

You drank too much?

I'll go get you water.

Hello.

POLICE NOTICE: WANTED SUSPECT

All this time and they still
haven't caught him...

Help cook the noodles please?

So do you think of here as home?

I've been away for so long,
sometimes I'm not sure where home is.

How long have you not been back?

Longer than you. Three years.

Are you from Shanghai?

No, Henan.

My mum forced me to study hard.

I obeyed,

so I could leave home.

I went far away,
only to find nothing was different.

Except I had to work harder.

But for what? Nothing's changed.

Why should it change?

Live however you want. Let loose a bit.

That's all there is to life.

You're lazy. Stop finding excuses.

Me?

Have you ever thought of

ending it all?

What are you, a novelist?

Death requires courage.

Find somewhere,
close your eyes, and just jump.

You two have really drunk too much.

Where's Changbai Mountain?

You want to go?

I hope to see Heaven Lake.

Let's go, I haven't been either.

What's the time?

It's stopped.

4:45.

It's almost dawn.

How did you find this place?

I asked around.

But ended up finding
your company online and phoned.

We'll get going then.

Have you been waiting long?

Not too long.

I'll put the kettle on.

How are you?

Not too bad. Still alive.

What do you need me for?

I'm in town visiting relatives.

Coach had a few of your medals.
I thought you'd want to keep them.

Just leave them there.

The Winter Olympics are coming up.
Are you ready?

Ready or not,

I don't have your talent.

And how is Coach? Is he well?

He retired two years ago
and moved back home.

Then at the end of last year...

You know he'd always
had some health issues.

He went really quickly.

He wanted to reach out,
but your number had changed.

- Your mum couldn’t reach you too.
- I have stuff to do.

You can see yourself out.

I miss you.

Thanks.

No problem.

I don't want to be alone.

Hello.

Water?

No, thanks.

Coming!

(Korean) Stop all that honking!

You're annoying.

Now what?

Nothing, just drive.

Didn't sleep well?

I didn’t sleep. Looks like
you haven’t too. Can you still drive?

It'll get dark if we don't get going.

Let's go get Haofeng.

There's a story
about Changbai Mountain.

An ancient legend.

You're a tour guide now?

Long, long ago,

there was a tiger and a bear
who lived in a cave.

Every day they prayed to the gods,
hoping to become humans.

Finally, the heavens were moved.

- And they became human?
- Stop interrupting.

The gods gave them only garlic
and mugwort for food.

If they didn’t leave the cave
or see sunlight for 100 days,

they would be turned into humans.

And then?

The tiger got so hungry
he couldn't bear it anymore.

He ran out to hunt after just a few days.

But the bear waited patiently.

On the 21st day,

it woke up,

and found that it had been
transformed into a beautiful woman.

People later named her the Bear Lady.

Shanghai's not bad, right?

I haven't been to many places in my life.

I grew up in Sichuan.

Hated school.

When I turned 17, my aunt married
someone here and opened a restaurant.

My parents told me to tag along.
At least I'd have a job.

I've always wondered what
the outside world looks like.

It's nothing special.

Perhaps you went to the wrong place.

Hello and welcome. Toll card, please.

Please wait a moment.

40 yuan, please.

WANTED SUSPECT

- Where are you going?
- Changbai Mountain.

Sightseeing?

Visiting Heaven Lake.

I'll take a look in the back.

All right, you can go.

WANTED SUSPECT
REWARD: 200,000 YUAN

Look how much this man is worth.

I'm not even worth that much.

- The weather turns quickly. Here.
- Thanks.

Reach out if anything happens.

It's also my first time
going up this way. Drive slowly.

Thank you.

Put it on. It's mine.

I'm not carrying you
if you freeze to death.

Slow down.

Heaven Lake is just over there.

I can't walk any more.

Let's take a break.

What are you doing?

“Tang Ping” (Lying flat and giving up)

Let’s go lie down too.

How much further?

We could take the tourist path,
but you two wanted adventure.

Nana, do you copy?

Do you copy?

Hello, yes.

The fog is gathering at the top.

You won't be able to see the lake.
Come down.

But we're almost there.

That's no good, if anything happens,
who'll take responsibility?

Come down quickly.

Got it.

Let's head back down.

HEAVEN LAKE

You two go ahead.

I need to pee.

Nana!

(Korean) Arirang, Arirang Pass, arariyo

My love is crossing over Arirang Pass.

The one who abandons me

Shall not walk three miles

Before getting homesick

My love is crossing over Arirang Pass

Just as there are many dreams
in our heart

There are also many stars
in the clear sky

The mountain over there must be

Changbai Mountain

Where flowers bloom

Even in the middle of winter days

Still playing? Finished your homework?

I'll do it later.

You are always playing
on the phone. Such a waste of time.

Aren't you the same,
you lie down all day doing nothing.

I'm leaving.

You can lie here alone in the future.

Hello, Ma?

What's the matter, Nana?

Nothing, I just wanted to call home.

Why haven't you called in all this time?

How have you been?

Hey, stop that!

Sis, will you be back for New Year?

Yes, I should be.

Susan has a pair
of god-gifted dancing shoes

They can take her away
from this weary world

Like the smoke of a cigarette

It was a cloudy night

When she kissed me
and floated into the heavens

Honey, goodbye

What a beautiful night

So beautiful

How it makes me weep

A leap forward

Farewell to the sea of emptiness

Sweet abyss

This is the kingdom that loves me.
