Her name was Ji-youn

We always met on Sundays

And it happened to be Sunday that day

Find out your fortune from bird fortune telling!

You can find out today's fortune with just 5 won!

Bird fortune telling! Young man, why don't you try it?

Try it! It really tells today's fortune exactly

- Come on - Yes

Okay, now come on, pick one

Stay away from women

If you don't, you'll lose greatly

So take care of yourself

Young man, today is Sunday, so be very careful with women

Well, I already lost 5 won

Need a ride?

Can I get on with this?

No way!

- Get on - What time is it?

It's 9:43 It's late, get on

Did you have much fun during the night?

- You look very tired - Do I look tired?

Ten years of driving and now I am an expert

Most people I meet these days are all tired

And the people look most tired on Sundays

- Could you do me a favor? - What is it?

Can you turn the radio off?

You don't like it?

Give me a pack of cigarettes please

- Money please - The driver will give it to you

She doesn't have any change, so give her 35 won and you take 65 won

- Sure - I'm sorry, this is my stop

He wants me to run an errand for a mere 5 won!

Hey mister, could you lend me a cigarette?

Ah, thanks

Thanks

Here!

Why are you standing outside? Why didn't you go inside? It's cold

It's comfortable here

Because you didn't have money to buy coffee?

No one thinks I'm here because I don't have money to buy coffee

- Let's go in - Do you have money?

You don't need to pretend in front of me

You're always broke

But I rode a taxi on my way here

Where did you stop this time?

In front of a tobacco shop

Next it will be the tobacco resale store

Why? Are you feeling bad?

Why aren't you saying anything? And what's that expression?

What shall we talk about?

About our present? Or our future?

Shall we get married at the church?

What kind of dress shall I wear?

Shall we have two children?

Is that enough? No, three is better

The house should have red bricks...

We must plant flowers in the garden

Sun plants, lilies, roses and what else? What else?

Tell me!

Why aren't you saying anything?

Why don't you answer me?

I'm sorry...

I know one thing for sure

I am a fool...

Nobody's a fool here

It isn't anyone's fault

Should there be a fault, it would be that we are penniless

I've always lied

After we part, I count the days until we meet

But when we meet I always regret it and parts with agony

- There's nothing to gain - I understand

It's better if we don't understand each other

It's now that I say this, but there's no end

Frankly speaking, waiting and meeting on Sundays...

Has become fearful? Then you are really a fool!

If you say I can't help being a fool, I guess I am a fool

It doesn't matter Let's just not consider ourselves fools

I can't I can't do it

We don't need to wait

Even if we do,

nothing will be solved

There's no one who can help us Let's solve this ourselves

We can't hide it anymore It's already been 6 months

But I don't want you to be hospitalized because of that

Please understand

I told you I understand You are afraid to meet me, aren't you?

- You're afraid of being with me - No, I'm not!

- I know it - No!

- It's true - No, I'm not!

I'm not afraid of others finding out I'm not afraid of that!

We just can't have it!

We can't have a baby yet.

We can't solve our problems.

- That's just an excuse - You are a dreadful man!

You can't solve anything and yet you pretend to be brave,

You have nothing and yet you always raise your voice

You didn't understand anything and yet you always pretended you did

We don't need to agonize each other now

All we have to do is not see each other anymore

We don't need to wait on Sundays anymore

And we don't have to wait outside the coffee shop because we don't have money

Stop! Stop!

We can borrow it

If we ask around we could borrow a few thousand won

- What would we tell them? - We'll probably lie

Say someone had a car accident or is in critical condition due to appendicitis

- Or maybe we'll eventually tell the truth - I don't want that

Maybe it might be faster to tell the truth,

rather than telling them it's a car accident

If its going to be known eventually, then its better to tell fast

We can't rely on tomorrow

And when time goes by, we may change our mind

Why don't you go inside a coffee shop and wait?

- I'll go alone - Then I'll wait here

- You'll be cold - It's better here than the coffee shop

I don't need to worry about other people's eyes

- All right then, I'll be back - Bye.

No, I'm not cold

Welcome

Sit down, please. Would you like coffee?

- Who's there? - It's me

- It's you - Excuse me

Wait Come in, it's okay

Come on in Hurry

- Come in - Help me with the zipper

Since you've met, I might as well introduce you

We are going to marry soon He's my friend

It's been a long time since we've had a drink together

- Shall I go and buy some? - Of course, you don't need to ask

You'll need this to buy it

Now come and sit

- Is she really your fiancee? - Don't make me laugh

If I ever did get a wife like her I'd rather eat rat poison

You and your women.

Don't be surprised I just met her at the theatre

You buy your own drinks!

Hah, really

See? She's that kind of woman

Won't you ask why I'm here?

- Okay, why are you here? - I need money

- Money? Why? - Do you want to know?

Well, as a friend, sure

I got a woman pregnant, it's for operation

- What? - Just lend me as much as you can

Do you know who the father is?

- The father? - Yeah

- What are you saying? - You are so naive

How could you know when she doesn't know whose it is anyway?

See? You don't know, do you?

Anyway, if it's for that, I don't have the money

Bastard!

"I'm not in, come to “Doom's Day” if you want to see me."

"That is, only those who want to drink."

- Do you know me? - Sure I know you

Know what?

I'm a university graduate, I graduated from middle school as head of class

But I failed in the society

Actually, it wasn't my fault Isn't that so?

Yes, of course

What do you mean by of course?

Do you know why I'm drinking?

- How would I know that - Why don't you know? Why?

I'm sorry, please understand

- You... How old are you? - Just turned forty

Why are you forty? Why have you turned forty?

"I'm not in, come to “Doom's Day” if you want to see me."

"That is, only those who want to drink."

How about writing something more next to it?

Like: "Welcome anyone who has no place to go."

You are here! You're finally here! So I do have a visitor!

Am I welcome?

I wasn't waiting for a guy like you with such bad luck

Then who were you waiting for?

Feels like someone might come looking for me, so I wait here every day

Obviously I know no one's coming

Do you know how it feels like

to be waiting?

Maybe I'm just pretending to be waiting

People know me as a guy with a broken heart

Maybe it's better than being known as a crazy one

How drunk are you?

I drink to get drunk but the more I drink, the more I become clear headed

- What happened to getting a job? - Tomorrow

They say I'll definitely get the job tomorrow

There's no one out there who'll tell me otherwise

It's always tomorrow

Do you know how many years I've been waiting for tomorrows?

I'm tired now

Do you believe in what all those gentlemen with cigarettes

in their mouths kindly tell you?

- I'd believe them - Yeah, you're right

One can't help but believe them

If I hadn't, then I would've already killed myself

Let's drink.

Hey look Actually there's something more pressing than drinking

- Have you ever borrowed money? - Sure

Well, what's the first thing you say when you borrow money?

That there's something more pressing than drinking

Han, but right now, nothing is more important to me than drinking

Will you help me?

It's a woman

- She has to have an operation today - Have the baby

And while at it, it's better a girl than a boy

Have a pretty girl

But no need to have a pretty girl like the legendary Chun-hyang

If you have the money for an operation

then why don't you pay for my drinking bills?

Come on, drink!

Poor bastard

- Who is this? - I'm Gyu-je's friend

Wait please, a friend is here to see you

Who? Ask his name

He asks for your name

- It's Huh Wook - Say that again, sir?

- Huh Wook - Huh Wook, sir?

- His name is Huh Wook, sir - Tell him to come in

- Come in, please - You have to open the door

I'm sorry

Where is he?

He's taking a bath He's here, sir

- Tell him to wait - This way please

It's me

I'm taking a bath I'll be out soon so wait a little

- So, it's been a long time - Why taking a bath in broad daylight?

I couldn't stand the boredom It's my 6th bath today

Why didn't you go out today?

There's nothing to do outside To me, Sundays are torture

Only guys like you spend Sundays paying for the coffee

- What happened to those cold drinks? - Coming, sir

For the guest, give him a cup of coffee

Offer him a cup

- How many spoons of coffee, sir? - Just two

- And sugar? - He doesn't take sugar

All right, sir

Ki-ju, I'm leaving

I'm finished Come on, have a cup of coffee

- A thief - What? What's missing?

- Money, sir - Money?

- And the watch - The watch?

What are you looking at?

I was rather bored

Well, I'll go and get him The scoundrel

Ji-youn! Ji-youn!

- Over here - Why are you there?

I was cold

- Why aren't you wearing the coat? - How can I wear it?

- Sorry for being late - Did you get the money?

Now what do we have to do first?

I'm hungry

- What's the matter? - I feel weird, I'm worried

There's nothing to worry about

You speak as though from experience

- I feel like I'm about to go to war - You've never experienced war

Go to a bar and have a drink while you wait

Yoo Heung-jin Obstretrics

- Will the operation take long? - It won't take that long

- Do you think you can stand it? - Yes, I can

Are you scared?

Let's get out

Come in, please

The doctor wants you to come in

Even if you want to have this baby,

as a doctor I'd like to suggest that you have an abortion

The mother's condition can not stand the pregnancy

Even now it's very bad

The operation cannot guarantee her life.

It can be dangerous But we can't leave it as it is

So maybe the two of you should discuss and then decide

To our gloomy Sunday

Gloomy people...

- To the guy who stood up the woman - To the woman who stood up the guy

To our unbelievable tomorrow

And yesterday

Whatever

To the empty bottle

What's your most desperate wish?

- To have this bottle filled again - And?

- Hope Sunday will end soon - Next?

Give me a cigarette

The rest I will think tomorrow

Have you ever slept with a guy?

These days people ask whether you've had an abortion or not

In your opinion, what can a man do for a woman?

Buy her a drink

Let's go somewhere else

All the men I meet on Sundays are the same

They are moody, quiet and have no courage

And they drink

Then in the end, they disappear without saying a word

Without any promises

I'm left alone and eventually tomorrow comes

Bye

Let's go somewhere else and have another drink

Today is almost gone, isn't it?

No, it's still far from over

The agony always comes at the last few hours

It's strange

Every Sunday morning I wish for it to end quickly,

but when night comes, I feel anxious

Is that why you drink?

What is it?

Are you afraid?

There's some place I need to go

You have to go, right?

No, I'll be back

It's okay if you don't come back

You don't have to keep your promise

You see, we met on a Sunday

So how did it go?

We did our best, but...

But...?

If you had come earlier, you would've seen her for the last time

I would have seen her for the last time?

I would have seen her for the last time?

How many times must I tell you? Ji-youn's dead

What? Ji-youn's dead?

Ji-youn's dead because of a guy like you?

How dare you blackmail me!

It's true, she's dead I killed her

- You are crazy! - You are the one who's crazy!

You bastard!

As a widower, do you have any idea how I raised Ji-youn?

I would never give her to a penniless bum like you!

Do you think I'd be fooled by your lies?

Get out! I said, get out!

- She is really dead! - Get out! Get out!

She's dead!

Do you know how many hours it took me to find you?

How about taking a hit until your ever pompous face begs for mercy!

You bastard!

Turn around

When we went to school together, you called me a pig with no conscience

So why did a clean person like you take my money?

You bastard! Say something!

- I have nothing to say, I'm... - Speak up!

Pig!

Get up! I said, get up!

You act as if you are the only one in this world carrying all that load and loneliness

Don't act like you're the only one with problems

Stand up I said get up!!

Get up! I said, get up!

The bastard...

Kill me

Huh Wook

Kill me!

- Kill me! - Huh Wook

- It's my fault, stop it - Hit me, hit me more

- Huh Wook - Kill me! Kill me!

Kill me!

I'm sorry

Kill me, you bastard...

Kill me!

Ji-youn!

What shall we talk about?

About our present? Or our future?

Shall we get married at the church?

What kind of dress shall I wear?

Shall we have two children?

Is that enough? No, three is better

The house should have red bricks...

We must plant flowers in the garden

Sun plants, lilies, roses and what else? What else?

Tell me!

Why aren't you saying anything? Why don't you answer me?

I'm sorry...

I know one thing for sure

I am a fool...

Nobody's a fool here It isn't anyone's fault

Should there be a fault,

it would be that we are penniless

I've always lied

After we part, I count the days until we meet

But when we meet I always regret it and parts with agony

- There's nothing to gain - I understand

It's better if we don't understand each other

it's now that I say this, but there's no end

Frankly speaking, waiting and meeting on Sundays...

Has become fearful?

Then you are really a fool!

If you say I can't help being a fool, I guess I am a fool

It doesn't matter

Let's just not consider ourselves fools

The next stop is Won-hyo-ro, the last station

Today this is the last train.

We will see you again tomorrow

Check your belongings Good-bye

See you tomorrow

- Where's this? - Where was your stop?

- I just took a ride - It's the final stop

I better get off then

Seoul, Namsan, the subway, the bar owner, the landlady

Sunday and everything... I love all of it

There's nothing I don't love

Now I don't even need to wait for Sundays

I don't have to have coffee money

It's going to be morning soon

Dawn will come

Shall I go out into the streets, meet people or drink coffee

No, I'll go to the barber's first I'll cut my hair first

I'll cut my hair first

The End
