Episode 44

-Nae Sang -Good morning, you're up early.

Where'd you go this early in the morning?

It's not even 6 yet.

Now that I can wander in public freely,

I want to go and get fresh air as much as possible.

I got some mountain water.

You should have slept more, you must be tired.

Tired? What's tired?

Now that I got some fresh air, I feel energized,

and as though there is new blood pumping through me.

But still don't exhaust yourself.

What's wrong Nae Sang?

I heard you took out a loan to help us.

Thank you so much.

-It's nothing. -No it's not.

I'll pay you back soon.

Rise and shine! Why isn't anyone awake?

Hear ye! Hear ye! A new day is upon us!

Alright, wake up! Wake up!

Morning bells are ringing!

A new day has come!

Wake up, wake up!

-What is it? -Let me sleep!

Ta da!

I made kimchijjigae, have some. (kimchijjigae: kimchi stew)

It's the so-good-you'll-freak Ahn Nae Sang signature pork kimchijjigae.

So early in the morning?

It's only 6:30...

Tired...tired...

The stew is really good Nae Sang.

Right? Enjoy!

Dad your rice bowl looks like a mountain.

Why are you eating so much?

I need to re-energize myself and find a job.

I will find a job within two days, so you can all look forward to it!

What's the rush? Take your time.

I've taken enough time.

I have so much energy flowing through me now!

In your health condition?

-Rest up for a few-- -What about my condition?

Do you know how much energy I have?

Want me to lift the fridge?

You're exaggerating again.

You don't believe me? Want me to lift it?

-Stop it! -Your back's going to give out again!

Jin Hee, do you want to go to Dongdaemun tomorrow?

Let's go buy a bunch of winter clothes.

Nah, I don't need winter clothes, I need sleep.

Why not? Tomorrow's pay day.

Pay day?

It's only been a month since I started.

Even if you're an intern, you might get a small stipend.

You can look into it.

This is all I have left.

It would be amazing if I got paid tomorrow.

Jin Hee, may I get the charts for Ms. Baek Sung Yun?

Yes.

Here you go.

So...I heard tomorrow is pay day...

Yes, it's pay day.

I've waited so long for tomorrow.

Don't you wish you got paid?

Yup. It'd be nice.

It's REALLY nice!

Do...I get paid tomorrow too?

Paid? It hasn't been a month since you started.

You get paid for the full month that you worked.

So of course you wouldn't get paid.

I was just wondering...

You don't get paid but you get a stipend.

Stipend?

It's pay for working 15 days so it's a stipend.

You'll get paid tomorrow too.

Really? Yes!

Here.

You're still doing that?

I told you to take your time.

I told you I'd find a job in 2 days. Trust me.

Hello? Yes, I'm calling in regards to your hiring ad.

Yes. I'll be 40 this year.

What do you mean I'm too old?

I actually don't look my age in person.

I would really like to work, please hire me.

I can begin working immediately.

No, it's not that I have experience but I will work hard.

I do not have experience but I will work as hard as I can.

Hello? Hello?

Calm down.

I'm out of breath just watching you.

What's the rush?

I'm not rushing. I just want to start working ASAP.

-I'm back. -I'm home.

My prince and princess, you guys are home!

Why'd you bump into me so hard?

Sorry.

Ahn Jong Suk, shall we have a study session?

And next!

Cabbage. Why is cabbage called cabbage?

What do you do to split it in half? You slice down on it!

But you need to use a knife, right?

So that's why cabbage is cabbage!

You're coming here?

I don't have any money, I'm seriously a bum!

I'm home.

Hi Gye Sang.

I do want to go to the amusement park. I'll call you if I can go.

I'll talk to you later.

Want to go somewhere more fun than the amusement park?

More fun than the rollercoasters.

-Where is that? -Nae Sang theme park.

-Nae Sang theme park? -Come here.

What is it?

Welcome to Nae Sang theme park! What do you think? Fun, right?

What is this? Put me down!

You'll get paid tomorrow too. You'll get paid tomorrow too.

You'll get paid tomorrow too.

I wonder how much I'll get.

How much should I expect?

Deposit: 850,000 won

It's 850!

It's one month's worth!

200 for my tuition loan

300 in living expenses for Ha Sun

100 for mom

50 for cellphone

And if I recharge 50 on my train card,

I only have 150 left.

My living expenses are at least 50.

I also need to get lotion (100)

I also have to get gifts for family and Dr. Yoon since it's my first paycheck.

I'll buy lotion next time.

I just need to get presents for these people...right?

Man, it's really tight...

You're not going out of your way because of me, are you?

Not at all. What's the job you're interviewing for?

It's a furniture delivery job.

They said that it's such a tough job young people don't stick around long.

So they prefer people that are a bit older.

Won't that be a hard job for someone your age?

Even if it takes time, maybe you should look for other jobs.

It's okay, it's okay.

I actually have muscles all over--

Are you okay?

That jerk calls that driving?!

Gye Sang, chase him!

-What? -Get closer!

We need to crush him!

-Closer! Closer! -What's wrong?

Guys like that should never be allowed back on the road again!

-Honey, look. -What is it?

What is that?

What is he saying?

Get out! Get out now! Are you driving with your feet?

Ha Sun, this is for my living expenses.

Living expenses?

I got my first paycheck yesterday!

Congratulations!

Why is there so much money?

I've been freeloading this entire time...

I didn't get paid that much so I couldn't put in a lot.

But since I get paid now, I'll pay for my part of the living expenses every month.

I don't know if I should accept all this.

Plus we've actually saved a lot thanks to you.

No, just take it!

What is it? Is it a rock?

No, it's just been hurting here since yesterday.

Maybe you have a cavity?

You think so?

It's your wisdom tooth. It's coming in sideways so you have an infection.

We'll need to take this out right away.

Right away? The pain is still tolerable...

Why would you tolerate oral pain of all things?

It looks pretty painful right now.

50,000won? Why does it cost so much to pull 1 tooth?

I had the other wisdom tooth taken out last time with just 10,000 won.

It usually costs more to take out a tooth that's growing in sideways.

What do you mean? So mentally Nae Sang isn't okay right now?

It's not that bad but he is exhibiting extreme behaviors.

Extreme behaviors?

He has been overflowing with energy these days...

I think it's due to the intense amount of stress he's feeling.

So why if he's stressed?

When people are stressed, part of the body's response is to pump additional amounts of adrenaline.

To put it simply, Nae Sang's body is overexerting adrenaline to compensate for all his stress.

I guess...how can he feel normal, he was just released a couple days ago.

So what do I need to do?

He'll need somewhere to release all that.

What about that?

-What? -Half marathon?

You want me to enter this?

We thought it'd be good for you since you've only been indoors for so long.

Yeah, give it a try.

You said you've been overflowing with energy these days.

Then shall I try?

Here...am I doing it right?

I should have just tolerated the pain. My previous money is all gone now!

What the heck? I have zero money now!

This sucks.

Do I need to cut down on gifts?

My spending money: 0 won

I can't just cut back on one person's gift.

Ji Won is a student so I can get her something a little cheaper.

Foreigners don't get each other expensive gifts so I can get Julien something a bit cheaper too.

If I think about it, Dr. Yoon never really did anything for me.

I studied hard and passed the exam for the job at the clinic.

And the book he gave me was from last year.

Plus, he makes a lot more money than me...

Yeah...this should be fine.

Mr. Ahn!

What is it? Why are you here?

I heard you were running a marathon.

It sounds like a lot of fun!

-You're running too? -Why would I?

I'm just going to follow you on my scooter.

Why'd you come if you're not even running...

We will now begin the Dongjak Town Half Marathon.

Participants please step up to the line.

Ready!

Good luck Mr. Ahn!

Jin Hee, Haeng Jung and Tae Yeon are getting married.

We're collecting money for their gift. You're going to pitch in too, right?

A gift?

I don't really know those two that well...

But you're going to be working with them from now on.

Just pitch in a little as a nice gesture.

We're all putting in 50,000 won so you should be okay with 20,000.

Sure...then should I?

Here...

Why are you holding on so tightly...

I can't believe I lost another 20,000 won like this!

I can't survive an entire month with 20,000.

Should I cut back on gifts some more?

Ha Sun is nice so she'll understand a 20,000 won gift.

Ji Won is the homeowner so I can't take out anymore.

I can't leave Julien out.

Do I have to give Dr. Yoon a gift? If only he didn't throw me out for cheating.

I would have worked 1 month earlier.

It' not like he changed my life or anything.

Alright, Dr. Yoon, is out.

It's fine, I don't need to worry about it anymore.

Wow, you're in really good shape!

Nae Sang, who couldn't control the overflowing amount of adrenaline,

felt his body and mind calming down as he ran and--

Mr. Ahn, good luck!

You're almost done!

This is the end!

I said this is the end!

He decided to run until he felt completely at peace with himself.

What? He ran past the finish line?

Why?

He's still running? Why?

Why is he still running?

-Here's the chart you asked for. -Thank you.

It's hectic these days, isn't it? A lot of work too I'm sure.

No...well...

You look tired. Here, eat this. It's a vitamin.

No, it's okay.

I only have 1 left so I'm only giving it to you. You can't tell the other nurses.

Oh no.

This is the stuff he brought home a few days ago...

Did Gye Sang give him this book?

Before coming here, my biggest fear was coming here.

But right now a part of me is more scared to go back out.

What can I do from now on?

What can I do for my loving family?

Will I ever be able to stand tall again in front of my wife, Jong Suk and Soo Jung?

Honey, I'm sorry.

There's nothing I can do for all your pain.

I'm putting you through so much...

I'm sorry.

Jong Suk, Soo Jung,

You're going through so much because I'm such an incompetent father.

I'm sorry.

There was a time when I dreamed for the best life possible.

I dreamed of crossing the finish line with a huge crowd cheering for me.

But unfortunately, I'm running the worst race of my life right now.

A sad and lonely race where I'm running with a ghost of my past self.

But I will not give up like this.

I'm going to run with all I have left.

It's what I must do.

It may be sad but crossing the finish line is the least I can do for my family.

It all starts again now.

Mr. Ahn, you ran all the way to Paju.

Are you going to keep running to North Korea?

Let's go back now.

Mr. Ahn! Mr. Ahn!

Dad's on his way back.

-He is? -Really?

Is a 30,000 won pen too cheap?

No, it's the thought that counts.

You didn't go home yet?

Yeah...well...

I have something to give you.

To me?

This...

What is this?

-A bomb? -What?

Just kidding!

What is it? Is this a present?

No, you can't really call it that...

I couldn't really get anything nicer...

Thank you.

Can I open it?

No, no. Open it later. It's really nothing big.

Have a good night.

Jin Hee, hold on!

I have something for you too.

Give me your hand.

-What? -Hurry.

Why...

-What is-- -A bomb.

It's a joke. I realized I never got you anything for finding a job.

It's a bit late but congratulations on finding a job.

Good night.

They say you'll make a lot of money when you carry a red wallet.

Make a lot of money and buy me a really good meal.

I'm going to eat a lot!

Mr. Ahn, ride with me now.

You're going to pass out.

Dad!

-You can do it honey! -You can do it dad!

Let's go dad!

Dad!

Keep your chin up dad!

-You can do it dad! -Good luck dad!

Honey just a bit more!

Mr. Ahn, you can't give up now. You're gonna have to cross that finish line.

Yay, dad you're amazing!

-Honey... -Honey...

Jong Suk...

This is really touching.

-Honey! -Dad!
