1
00:01:32,134 --> 00:01:34,219
Stop messing around with your hair.
2
00:01:35,721 --> 00:01:38,515
Before Tae-hun shaves his head
and goes to live in a temple.
3
00:01:40,517 --> 00:01:41,685
If I had a crazy sister,
4
00:01:41,768 --> 00:01:45,480
a daughter who doesn't listen to him,
and a hysterical girlfriend…
5
00:01:49,735 --> 00:01:52,404
Is there anything I can do as I please
apart from my hair?
6
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:58,160
You are quite bold.
7
00:01:58,243 --> 00:02:00,120
Cutting your own hair at home.
8
00:02:00,203 --> 00:02:02,414
I did go to a salon to fix it a little.
9
00:02:02,497 --> 00:02:06,710
Still, what if you'd ruined it?
You said you cut it with kitchen scissors.
10
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:08,545
I just
11
00:02:09,129 --> 00:02:11,256
wanted to try cutting it
with my own hands.
12
00:02:13,008 --> 00:02:14,426
Are you feeling better?
13
00:02:23,977 --> 00:02:25,312
SURROUND AIR MASSAGER
14
00:02:25,395 --> 00:02:28,565
I'm thinking of getting this
for your father's birthday present.
15
00:02:35,113 --> 00:02:36,657
You already gave him gifts
on Chuseok and New Year's.
16
00:02:36,740 --> 00:02:39,201
You don't need to get
something for his birthday, too…
17
00:02:39,284 --> 00:02:41,912
Just skip my dad's birthday. Please.
18
00:02:46,249 --> 00:02:47,209
All right.
19
00:02:50,087 --> 00:02:51,254
Thank you.
20
00:02:53,465 --> 00:02:55,258
Have a safe trip home.
21
00:02:55,342 --> 00:02:57,094
And enjoy your lunch.
22
00:02:58,970 --> 00:03:00,764
You, too. Enjoy your lunch.
23
00:03:11,775 --> 00:03:13,193
I'll have kimchi stew.
24
00:03:13,276 --> 00:03:14,236
All right.
25
00:03:14,903 --> 00:03:17,155
Me? I'll have kimchi deopbap.
26
00:03:17,239 --> 00:03:18,115
Me too.
27
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:20,659
What's this?
28
00:03:22,744 --> 00:03:25,163
I don't look good in anything
since my hair's shorter.
29
00:03:25,247 --> 00:03:26,206
I know, right?
30
00:03:28,834 --> 00:03:30,710
Oh, hello.
31
00:03:32,170 --> 00:03:33,046
Hi.
32
00:03:35,465 --> 00:03:37,134
What? Tae-hun?
33
00:03:38,552 --> 00:03:39,553
-Hello.
-Hello.
34
00:03:40,470 --> 00:03:41,680
Hello.
35
00:03:46,351 --> 00:03:47,227
Your hair…
36
00:03:51,398 --> 00:03:52,399
I cut it.
37
00:03:54,484 --> 00:03:55,652
I see.
38
00:04:02,659 --> 00:04:05,370
I guess we're enjoying lunch
at the same place today.
39
00:04:07,664 --> 00:04:08,498
Yes.
40
00:04:10,584 --> 00:04:12,836
Please, it's getting cold.
41
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:14,463
All right, enjoy your meal.
42
00:04:20,427 --> 00:04:22,846
She's changed her style a lot, suddenly.
43
00:04:24,514 --> 00:04:25,348
Yes.
44
00:04:29,478 --> 00:04:31,855
Did you not tell him you cut your hair?
45
00:04:38,945 --> 00:04:41,072
It's like a war
whenever I go through Gangnam.
46
00:04:41,907 --> 00:04:43,909
It's not like that
when you go north, right?
47
00:04:43,992 --> 00:04:45,494
I'm going to Gangnam, too, today.
48
00:04:45,577 --> 00:04:47,454
I have plans with my former colleagues.
49
00:04:47,537 --> 00:04:51,082
You must have gotten along with them
at your previous workplace.
50
00:05:28,453 --> 00:05:29,454
Mi-jeong…
51
00:05:30,247 --> 00:05:31,373
Hello.
52
00:05:31,957 --> 00:05:33,250
It's been a while.
53
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:34,459
It's been ages.
54
00:05:34,543 --> 00:05:36,419
Not for you two though, right?
55
00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:39,089
Are you still dating Mi-jeong's sister?
56
00:05:39,798 --> 00:05:41,508
Yes, of course.
57
00:05:42,217 --> 00:05:43,969
Mi-jeong, you just keep getting--
58
00:05:45,637 --> 00:05:48,473
I forgot we shouldn't talk
about stuff like this.
59
00:05:48,557 --> 00:05:49,641
I forgot.
60
00:05:49,724 --> 00:05:52,102
You should still finish
what you were saying.
61
00:05:52,185 --> 00:05:53,270
"Getting" what?
62
00:05:54,563 --> 00:05:55,564
Getting…
63
00:05:57,107 --> 00:05:59,109
Happy New Year.
64
00:06:00,652 --> 00:06:02,529
-Let's go inside.
-Yes.
65
00:06:02,612 --> 00:06:03,989
-Let's go.
-Let's go in.
66
00:06:05,448 --> 00:06:07,534
A while ago, I told my publisher friend
67
00:06:07,617 --> 00:06:10,078
about the Liberation Club
at my school reunion.
68
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:12,330
And he asked me if he could see
69
00:06:13,456 --> 00:06:14,457
what we wrote.
70
00:06:16,418 --> 00:06:18,795
The liberation notes of all four of us.
71
00:06:19,963 --> 00:06:21,172
He wants to publish them.
72
00:06:24,426 --> 00:06:25,510
Publish them?
73
00:06:25,594 --> 00:06:27,887
He said how we came together
would make a great story.
74
00:06:27,971 --> 00:06:29,973
He said it's going to be something.
75
00:06:30,056 --> 00:06:32,392
I have no idea what that something is,
76
00:06:32,475 --> 00:06:35,020
but he was talking to me
with his eyes all sparkling.
77
00:06:35,103 --> 00:06:36,605
It made me excited.
78
00:06:37,522 --> 00:06:39,858
He says it could be a slice-of-life story
79
00:06:39,941 --> 00:06:41,776
about ordinary office workers.
80
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:44,154
Apparently, it's a great subject.
81
00:06:44,779 --> 00:06:45,614
"Liberation."
82
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,367
I told him we didn't do it anymore,
83
00:06:49,451 --> 00:06:52,287
but he keeps asking me to show him.
84
00:06:52,370 --> 00:06:55,206
But it's not my decision
to make on my own.
85
00:06:55,832 --> 00:06:58,543
So, I told him
I would ask you all in person.
86
00:06:59,127 --> 00:07:02,380
Even today, he wanted to
come here with me so I had to stop him.
87
00:07:04,007 --> 00:07:07,385
Are we going to be authors, then?
88
00:07:07,927 --> 00:07:10,847
I don't think I can do that.
89
00:07:10,930 --> 00:07:12,932
Why? Is it too much?
90
00:07:13,016 --> 00:07:15,602
I haven't even written that much,
91
00:07:16,770 --> 00:07:18,605
and it's too personal…
92
00:07:20,982 --> 00:07:24,611
What if we use fake names?
Like pseudonyms.
93
00:07:26,196 --> 00:07:28,865
Let's make pseudonyms.
94
00:07:31,868 --> 00:07:34,162
I've also stopped halfway.
95
00:07:34,913 --> 00:07:37,666
Wouldn't it still be quite a lot
if we gathered all of ours?
96
00:07:38,833 --> 00:07:41,962
I've filled about two notebooks.
97
00:07:42,045 --> 00:07:44,339
I kept writing
even after we stopped the club.
98
00:07:44,422 --> 00:07:46,049
That's impressive.
99
00:07:47,092 --> 00:07:49,427
What about you, Mi-jeong?
Do you still write?
100
00:07:50,637 --> 00:07:53,390
No, I was done
after I had finished one notebook.
101
00:07:55,266 --> 00:07:59,396
It sounds like
you've accomplished something.
102
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:00,563
It's not that.
103
00:08:01,189 --> 00:08:04,859
But I'm not sure if it's good enough
to be published as a book--
104
00:08:04,943 --> 00:08:08,071
He says it is!
Just the story from the four of us is…
105
00:08:11,282 --> 00:08:12,242
I'm sorry.
106
00:08:13,118 --> 00:08:16,162
I shouldn't have told him
without asking you guys first.
107
00:08:16,997 --> 00:08:18,665
I shouldn't act like this at my age.
108
00:08:19,874 --> 00:08:21,626
I told him about all of you,
109
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:24,295
and about the things
you wanted to be liberated from.
110
00:08:25,130 --> 00:08:28,091
He liked it. He said it has weight.
111
00:08:38,435 --> 00:08:41,146
When we were saying goodbye,
112
00:08:41,229 --> 00:08:45,817
we were determined to see it through
to the end wherever we are.
113
00:08:48,111 --> 00:08:50,530
I guess I was
just caught up in the moment.
114
00:08:52,490 --> 00:08:54,868
I don't even know
where my notebook is now.
115
00:08:56,161 --> 00:08:59,497
I was moved by the word "liberation,"
116
00:09:00,165 --> 00:09:04,794
and I was moved again when you
mentioned your father's handwriting.
117
00:09:05,837 --> 00:09:09,215
I was moved by all those moments,
118
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,263
then I went back
to living the way I used to.
119
00:09:19,225 --> 00:09:20,894
But at the beginning, I thought,
120
00:09:21,853 --> 00:09:25,148
"This must have been what it's like
to fight for Korea's liberation."
121
00:09:26,441 --> 00:09:29,527
The feeling of holding something
in your heart.
122
00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:34,324
My liberation.
123
00:09:36,534 --> 00:09:37,911
But…
124
00:09:39,287 --> 00:09:40,997
even though we did make a start,
125
00:09:42,499 --> 00:09:44,334
we didn't accomplish anything, did we?
126
00:09:47,462 --> 00:09:48,463
But…
127
00:09:49,339 --> 00:09:52,425
we can't exactly say we
accomplished nothing, don't you think?
128
00:09:53,927 --> 00:09:56,262
Do you feel a little liberated?
129
00:09:58,056 --> 00:10:00,934
Well, some days, I feel like I am.
130
00:10:01,726 --> 00:10:03,978
And some days, I feel like
I'm back to square one.
131
00:10:04,062 --> 00:10:07,607
But I still feel
I've been liberated even just a little.
132
00:10:09,192 --> 00:10:11,986
Do you not feel like that at all, Mr. Cho?
133
00:10:19,577 --> 00:10:21,746
I found out why I was suffering,
134
00:10:22,664 --> 00:10:24,249
but other than that…
135
00:10:31,047 --> 00:10:34,259
I think that's what this is all about.
136
00:10:37,595 --> 00:10:39,556
Finding out what my issue is.
137
00:11:16,509 --> 00:11:18,678
Let's end it with Hyeon.
138
00:11:21,055 --> 00:11:21,890
Sir?
139
00:11:21,973 --> 00:11:25,310
I'm sure he's pocketed
a lot of money all this time.
140
00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:29,439
Make it look like we're closing the place
because business isn't good
141
00:11:30,148 --> 00:11:31,941
and move the shop somewhere else.
142
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:11,481
I have a good feeling.
143
00:12:12,106 --> 00:12:13,483
See? It's a flush.
144
00:12:15,860 --> 00:12:18,321
A flush? I knew it.
145
00:12:24,619 --> 00:12:26,287
-I feel bad for you.
-Damn it.
146
00:12:44,681 --> 00:12:46,140
You kept telling me to come back
147
00:12:46,224 --> 00:12:48,267
when I was living quietly
in the countryside.
148
00:12:48,351 --> 00:12:50,436
It was because you needed money to gamble.
149
00:12:57,235 --> 00:12:58,528
Can't you stop?
150
00:12:59,362 --> 00:13:00,321
Can't you?
151
00:13:01,322 --> 00:13:03,783
-Can't you just stop?
-You're one to talk!
152
00:13:03,866 --> 00:13:05,368
Can you stop?
153
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:07,996
You drink from sunrise to sunset.
154
00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:11,374
You can't even remember your own number.
Who are you to tell me that?
155
00:13:13,668 --> 00:13:15,712
Mind your own business!
156
00:13:31,602 --> 00:13:36,065
If the daily revenue goes below 80 million
even once starting tomorrow, you're out.
157
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:42,739
Understood?
158
00:13:48,411 --> 00:13:51,164
You're out if it drops
below that even once.
159
00:14:01,632 --> 00:14:04,010
And why do I have to remember my number?
160
00:14:24,947 --> 00:14:26,324
Aren't you going to answer?
161
00:14:27,784 --> 00:14:28,785
Sir?
162
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:30,953
Your phone's ringing.
163
00:14:36,542 --> 00:14:37,960
Isn't this your phone?
164
00:14:39,003 --> 00:14:40,546
What ringing, sir?
165
00:15:18,209 --> 00:15:19,293
We'll be off.
166
00:15:19,377 --> 00:15:20,503
Good night.
167
00:15:31,347 --> 00:15:33,599
Well, I'm taking the bus.
168
00:15:33,683 --> 00:15:34,934
I see.
169
00:15:35,017 --> 00:15:39,939
-All right, then. Happy New…
-Yes. Happy New Year, sir.
170
00:15:45,528 --> 00:15:46,654
Get home safe.
171
00:16:10,511 --> 00:16:14,807
I could never forget
what you said that day, Mi-jeong.
172
00:16:16,809 --> 00:16:19,020
You once said to me
173
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,856
that when you decided to be liberated,
174
00:16:23,149 --> 00:16:26,235
you started feeling emotions
that you'd never felt before.
175
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,117
You said you suddenly felt so lovable.
176
00:16:39,582 --> 00:16:41,792
I wonder what it's like
177
00:16:43,294 --> 00:16:44,629
to feel lovable.
178
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:55,431
See you again.
179
00:16:55,515 --> 00:16:56,474
Take care.
180
00:17:14,534 --> 00:17:15,535
My gosh.
181
00:17:18,329 --> 00:17:19,789
So you can joke around, too.
182
00:17:51,237 --> 00:17:53,197
I thought my hands would get shaky first,
183
00:17:54,699 --> 00:17:56,492
but I'm hearing things instead.
184
00:17:58,911 --> 00:18:00,746
Well, my brain must be breaking down.
185
00:18:02,999 --> 00:18:06,627
I deserve it. Since I drink as soon as
I open my eyes in the morning.
186
00:18:08,296 --> 00:18:10,798
Not a lot of people
start drinking in the morning.
187
00:18:10,881 --> 00:18:13,801
They say even heavy drinkers
can't drink in the morning.
188
00:18:16,012 --> 00:18:18,472
But it's easier than being sober.
189
00:18:21,642 --> 00:18:23,561
Why is it hard to stay sober?
190
00:18:29,525 --> 00:18:30,985
When I'm sober,
191
00:18:34,196 --> 00:18:36,490
all the people from my past come to me.
192
00:18:38,075 --> 00:18:39,201
All of them.
193
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:42,371
Even the dead.
194
00:18:48,169 --> 00:18:49,587
When I wake up in the morning,
195
00:18:51,172 --> 00:18:52,965
the ones who were resting…
196
00:18:55,259 --> 00:18:56,844
get up one by one
197
00:18:58,179 --> 00:18:59,180
and come to me.
198
00:19:00,014 --> 00:19:01,474
One by one.
199
00:19:02,850 --> 00:19:03,809
Endlessly…
200
00:19:05,936 --> 00:19:07,480
The ones who come for me…
201
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:10,358
I destroy them all inside my head.
202
00:19:11,067 --> 00:19:12,568
And curse at them.
203
00:19:14,528 --> 00:19:16,155
After I sit there
204
00:19:17,365 --> 00:19:18,616
for an hour doing that,
205
00:19:20,785 --> 00:19:21,994
I get exhausted.
206
00:19:24,997 --> 00:19:26,082
It feels like…
207
00:19:28,250 --> 00:19:30,378
there's sewage waste
flowing inside my body.
208
00:19:33,964 --> 00:19:35,508
I say, "Let's get up."
209
00:19:36,717 --> 00:19:37,635
"Let's drink."
210
00:19:38,469 --> 00:19:41,889
"They'll all go away if I drink."
211
00:19:45,059 --> 00:19:46,268
That's why
212
00:19:47,019 --> 00:19:49,105
I'm more generous drunk
213
00:19:50,064 --> 00:19:52,817
than I am when sober.
214
00:19:59,365 --> 00:20:01,158
Among those people who came for you,
215
00:20:02,410 --> 00:20:03,703
was I one of them?
216
00:20:22,012 --> 00:20:23,013
What's wrong with me?
217
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:29,186
I'm not even an alcoholic,
but I understand you perfectly.
218
00:20:31,647 --> 00:20:35,818
When I'm brushing my teeth in the morning
after a good sleep,
219
00:20:35,901 --> 00:20:39,655
Choi Jun-ho, that asshole,
is waiting for me in my head.
220
00:20:40,364 --> 00:20:43,159
Han Su-jin, that bitch, is there too.
221
00:20:44,076 --> 00:20:46,287
And that bastard, Jung Chan-hyeok, too.
222
00:20:49,123 --> 00:20:50,791
All I did was sleep and wake up.
223
00:20:51,667 --> 00:20:55,296
But I get angry while brushing my teeth.
224
00:20:59,717 --> 00:21:01,427
What's that bastard's phone number?
225
00:21:03,262 --> 00:21:05,431
Just give me the number.
I'll take care of it.
226
00:21:09,351 --> 00:21:10,978
That bastard…
227
00:21:12,396 --> 00:21:14,398
shouldn't pay me back.
228
00:21:16,484 --> 00:21:19,487
Because I want to prove
what a terrible person he is
229
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:22,364
for as long as possible.
230
00:21:22,907 --> 00:21:24,992
I want to prove to the world
231
00:21:26,535 --> 00:21:30,331
that he didn't leave me
because I was small and insignificant,
232
00:21:30,414 --> 00:21:32,291
but because he was a terrible person.
233
00:21:33,292 --> 00:21:35,044
That's why he left me like that.
234
00:21:36,253 --> 00:21:38,130
I wanted to make him think
235
00:21:39,173 --> 00:21:41,842
that he was
a terrible person during his wedding.
236
00:21:42,551 --> 00:21:45,429
And if he ever has a child,
I want to go to their birthday party
237
00:21:46,055 --> 00:21:50,601
and remind him again
that he's a terrible person.
238
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:01,779
That's why
239
00:22:03,739 --> 00:22:05,449
I'm always exhausted.
240
00:22:09,870 --> 00:22:13,332
Since I decided
to be someone who exists only to prove…
241
00:22:17,711 --> 00:22:19,505
how terrible someone is.
242
00:22:24,718 --> 00:22:28,472
Among those people
you wanted to prove were terrible…
243
00:22:32,935 --> 00:22:34,144
was I one of them?
244
00:22:41,151 --> 00:22:42,570
You're like…
245
00:22:46,824 --> 00:22:48,826
a sanctuary that I keep within my head.
246
00:22:49,451 --> 00:22:52,288
Because I decided
to keep you away from my hate.
247
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:56,834
After you left,
248
00:22:57,876 --> 00:22:59,837
my mom passed away,
249
00:23:00,504 --> 00:23:02,006
and my dad remarried…
250
00:23:04,633 --> 00:23:05,676
I felt like
251
00:23:06,885 --> 00:23:09,054
I was constantly being abandoned.
252
00:23:11,557 --> 00:23:15,185
In every kind of relationship I've had,
I've never walked away first.
253
00:23:15,269 --> 00:23:17,062
The other person always left me.
254
00:23:19,315 --> 00:23:21,859
So I thought maybe
something was wrong with me.
255
00:23:22,901 --> 00:23:25,654
And since it was so painful
to find a problem with myself,
256
00:23:26,196 --> 00:23:28,574
I made myself believe
everyone else was the asshole.
257
00:23:30,826 --> 00:23:32,119
But I was
258
00:23:33,203 --> 00:23:35,247
determined from the moment I met you.
259
00:23:36,832 --> 00:23:40,461
that I wouldn't make
any more assholes in my life.
260
00:23:41,712 --> 00:23:45,841
That I'd gladly let you fly away
if you become a better person.
261
00:23:46,550 --> 00:23:49,511
That I wouldn't be embarrassed
even if you hit rock bottom.
262
00:23:50,220 --> 00:23:53,766
That I'd only cheer you on
from one person to another.
263
00:23:55,017 --> 00:23:58,646
When I felt like I would hate you,
I begged in my head,
264
00:23:59,730 --> 00:24:02,066
"Please, don't even let him catch a cold."
265
00:24:02,983 --> 00:24:07,404
"Please don't let him suffer
from a hangover."
266
00:24:11,992 --> 00:24:13,786
But since I was unhappy all the time,
267
00:24:14,703 --> 00:24:17,706
when I wanted to blame you out of anger,
268
00:24:17,790 --> 00:24:19,958
I would say,
"Jung Chan-hyeok, you bastard."
269
00:24:23,253 --> 00:24:25,130
Whenever nothing was going my way
270
00:24:25,214 --> 00:24:27,800
and I didn't know where to vent my anger,
271
00:24:29,009 --> 00:24:31,679
I said, "Jung Chan-hyeok, you bastard."
272
00:24:35,641 --> 00:24:37,142
Then it occurred to me,
273
00:24:38,102 --> 00:24:40,145
"What if he pays it all back?"
274
00:24:41,814 --> 00:24:43,524
"Who would I curse, then?"
275
00:24:47,778 --> 00:24:49,697
I'm worried he might pay me back.
276
00:24:56,829 --> 00:24:58,038
Come to think of it…
277
00:25:02,084 --> 00:25:04,002
I've never caught a cold.
278
00:25:29,236 --> 00:25:32,823
Everyone, run backwards
and wave your arms and say, "Welcome!"
279
00:25:32,906 --> 00:25:34,992
-Welcome!
-Welcome!
280
00:25:38,162 --> 00:25:39,121
Face front again!
281
00:25:43,125 --> 00:25:44,418
See you later!
282
00:25:46,086 --> 00:25:47,337
Hurry it up, okay?
283
00:25:47,921 --> 00:25:51,133
We've got all kinds of pork.
It's an all-you-can-eat pork buffet!
284
00:26:10,778 --> 00:26:12,905
It sure is different.
285
00:26:13,655 --> 00:26:16,992
Mi-jeong went to the store early
in the morning to get freshly made ones.
286
00:26:17,075 --> 00:26:18,494
Yes, you can tell.
287
00:26:19,536 --> 00:26:21,455
Do you like the matching shirts?
288
00:26:25,334 --> 00:26:28,170
That kimchi isn't good. Don't eat it.
289
00:26:28,253 --> 00:26:30,506
There's amazing kimchi in the fridge.
290
00:26:35,928 --> 00:26:37,304
Why did you get your hair cut
291
00:26:38,388 --> 00:26:40,057
in the middle of winter?
292
00:26:43,185 --> 00:26:45,229
I had it cut since it was
too hard to wash it.
293
00:26:45,312 --> 00:26:47,314
It feels so light now that it's short.
294
00:26:47,397 --> 00:26:48,565
Goodness me.
295
00:26:56,865 --> 00:26:58,784
This is medication for your knee, Dad.
296
00:26:58,867 --> 00:27:00,619
Take two tablets in the morning.
297
00:27:07,292 --> 00:27:08,418
You've done well.
298
00:27:09,711 --> 00:27:11,630
How did you pay back all of it?
299
00:27:13,257 --> 00:27:14,258
You're amazing.
300
00:27:14,341 --> 00:27:15,843
It's nothing.
301
00:27:21,223 --> 00:27:25,352
I can treat you all to beef sashimi
and everything, now.
302
00:27:25,978 --> 00:27:29,398
If I make 2.8 million won now,
it's all mine.
303
00:27:29,481 --> 00:27:31,483
I reduced the amount of money I spend,
304
00:27:31,567 --> 00:27:33,193
so I don't really spend much.
305
00:27:33,861 --> 00:27:36,280
I can eat whatever I want
306
00:27:36,363 --> 00:27:37,739
and still have some money left.
307
00:27:38,574 --> 00:27:41,159
I never realized
2.8 million won was so much.
308
00:27:41,243 --> 00:27:43,161
Just like eating an almond
309
00:27:43,787 --> 00:27:45,873
after being on a strict diet
310
00:27:45,956 --> 00:27:48,542
and thinking, "Wow, an almond
could taste this good?"
311
00:27:48,625 --> 00:27:50,669
Is it something like that?
312
00:27:51,545 --> 00:27:54,882
Seriously, I was worried
she might divorce my dad.
313
00:27:55,591 --> 00:27:58,510
So, I just sucked it up
and paid it all back.
314
00:27:59,553 --> 00:28:02,264
What would would have
my stepmother thought
315
00:28:02,347 --> 00:28:04,683
if she saw that his children
had trouble with money?
316
00:28:05,267 --> 00:28:06,977
She might regret marrying him.
317
00:28:07,936 --> 00:28:11,899
She probably felt very secure
that my dad owned some land.
318
00:28:12,399 --> 00:28:16,528
If my dad gets divorced,
I'll have to bring him to live with us.
319
00:28:19,197 --> 00:28:20,032
You know,
320
00:28:21,116 --> 00:28:22,451
when my mom passed away
321
00:28:23,493 --> 00:28:26,455
and I was having all three meals
with just my dad,
322
00:28:26,538 --> 00:28:29,082
I kept worrying that we might
grow old together like this
323
00:28:29,166 --> 00:28:30,792
if I don't do anything.
324
00:28:31,376 --> 00:28:32,461
It was depressing.
325
00:28:34,504 --> 00:28:38,300
So I thought, "I need to get it together
and help my dad remarry."
326
00:28:38,926 --> 00:28:41,595
As soon as
someone set him up with a woman,
327
00:28:41,678 --> 00:28:43,430
I got him an exfoliation treatment
328
00:28:43,513 --> 00:28:45,057
and a facelift.
329
00:28:45,557 --> 00:28:49,853
I just can't believe Mr. Yeom even went
to the dermatology clinic with you.
330
00:28:49,937 --> 00:28:50,771
Right.
331
00:28:50,854 --> 00:28:52,773
He had to if he didn't want to
live with me forever.
332
00:28:54,024 --> 00:28:57,527
And why would I ruin his marriage
that we put so much effort into?
333
00:28:58,070 --> 00:29:01,990
So, I just had to suck it up
and put my all into paying it back.
334
00:29:04,076 --> 00:29:06,954
Saving money may be hard,
but spending it was so easy.
335
00:29:07,037 --> 00:29:08,705
The money I saved over ten years…
336
00:29:08,789 --> 00:29:12,626
That's why you don't save any.
Just spend it all.
337
00:29:14,044 --> 00:29:16,046
I really thought I hit the jackpot.
338
00:29:17,256 --> 00:29:21,051
I was going to sell sweet potato ovens
to over 2,000 convenience stores.
339
00:29:21,134 --> 00:29:23,136
And looking at the warehouse
full of ovens,
340
00:29:23,845 --> 00:29:29,351
I thought I had finally
made a breakthrough in life.
341
00:29:30,978 --> 00:29:34,147
But to have given all of that up…
342
00:29:37,484 --> 00:29:38,318
I'm amazing.
343
00:29:39,486 --> 00:29:41,280
I gave up selling them to stores
344
00:29:41,363 --> 00:29:43,282
and only sold 300 of them that winter.
345
00:29:43,991 --> 00:29:46,660
The other 1700 are still
sitting in the warehouse.
346
00:29:46,743 --> 00:29:48,453
The story keeps changing.
347
00:29:49,037 --> 00:29:50,289
You said you failed
348
00:29:50,372 --> 00:29:52,833
since you couldn't
go to the machine testing.
349
00:29:52,916 --> 00:29:54,584
I could but I didn't.
350
00:29:54,668 --> 00:29:56,837
They were all loaded in a truck.
351
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,966
And the test was just a formality.
They were the number one bid.
352
00:30:01,049 --> 00:30:05,053
Then why didn't you go?
It was all yours for the taking.
353
00:30:08,348 --> 00:30:09,266
What?
354
00:30:10,350 --> 00:30:11,310
What?
355
00:30:15,522 --> 00:30:17,399
This is so unlike you.
356
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,776
Are you teasing me?
Why aren't you saying anything?
357
00:30:22,362 --> 00:30:23,196
You know
358
00:30:24,197 --> 00:30:26,241
how I always vent by talking?
359
00:30:28,285 --> 00:30:29,870
But I don't want to this time.
360
00:30:31,747 --> 00:30:34,041
This silence of mine.
361
00:30:34,124 --> 00:30:36,043
The stoic and cool me
that only I remember.
362
00:30:37,961 --> 00:30:39,671
Jeez…
363
00:30:40,255 --> 00:30:42,466
I won't do it because if I do,
364
00:30:42,549 --> 00:30:45,135
the weight of my silence
will be lightened.
365
00:30:47,346 --> 00:30:50,432
It'll be my own secret, forever.
366
00:30:50,515 --> 00:30:51,641
You little…
367
00:30:52,434 --> 00:30:53,727
Don't worry, alright?
368
00:30:53,810 --> 00:30:55,437
He'll tell us in a minute.
369
00:31:16,875 --> 00:31:19,878
What's with you? The minute's almost up.
370
00:31:25,217 --> 00:31:27,386
You know what?
371
00:31:28,678 --> 00:31:31,056
-He'll tell us if we tickle him.
-That's right.
372
00:31:31,139 --> 00:31:32,682
-Tell us.
-He'll tell us.
373
00:31:37,062 --> 00:31:41,858
The words sit on the tip of your tongue,
wanting to come out.
374
00:31:42,442 --> 00:31:45,654
But when you swallow them back down,
375
00:31:46,321 --> 00:31:49,491
that's when you know you're an adult.
376
00:31:50,784 --> 00:31:54,246
You fall in love with yourself thinking,
"I can't believe I held back."
377
00:31:58,291 --> 00:32:00,043
I'm falling in love with myself again.
378
00:32:01,294 --> 00:32:02,587
This bastard…
379
00:32:04,297 --> 00:32:07,259
Why did he get so annoying?
380
00:32:11,513 --> 00:32:12,931
It's amazing.
381
00:32:26,319 --> 00:32:28,613
I didn't feel good
for even a second today.
382
00:32:31,324 --> 00:32:32,826
But right at the end, I do.
383
00:32:36,037 --> 00:32:37,330
I'm going to walk.
384
00:32:37,914 --> 00:32:39,958
Please get in, sir. You'll catch a cold.
385
00:32:42,169 --> 00:32:43,336
I won't.

I FELL IN LOVE WITH EUN-O'S PASSION.

MY LIBERATION NOTES
392
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:53,698
When I sit here
393
00:33:54,574 --> 00:33:58,119
with your father and watch the snow,
394
00:34:00,413 --> 00:34:02,874
I think, "I never thought
this kind of day would come."
395
00:34:34,990 --> 00:34:36,199
RECENT DESTINATION
396
00:34:36,283 --> 00:34:38,868
Has Yeom Gi-jeong decided
not to come anymore?
397
00:34:41,079 --> 00:34:43,206
She doesn't come
to the bar anymore, either.
398
00:34:43,290 --> 00:34:44,249
Did you break up?
399
00:34:46,418 --> 00:34:48,670
She's in Sanpo.
It's her father's birthday.
400
00:34:53,049 --> 00:34:56,261
I wonder what kind of excuse
she'll have next week.
401
00:35:09,482 --> 00:35:10,483
Hello?
402
00:35:13,778 --> 00:35:14,654
If I have to,
403
00:35:16,281 --> 00:35:18,783
I'll take her and disappear,
so don't worry.
404
00:35:31,379 --> 00:35:32,922
There's egg bread!
405
00:35:33,590 --> 00:35:36,259
-Are we not buying any?
-He said Gi-jeong's not here!
406
00:35:42,807 --> 00:35:44,100
Help yourself.
407
00:35:45,018 --> 00:35:45,852
Okay.
408
00:35:47,228 --> 00:35:50,023
I wonder if I'll ever see
Mi-jeong gossiping before I die.
409
00:35:52,275 --> 00:35:53,526
I talk a lot.
410
00:35:54,319 --> 00:35:55,153
With whom?
411
00:35:58,990 --> 00:36:00,950
No. I forgot the dongchimi.
412
00:36:01,034 --> 00:36:03,036
It's okay. There's a lot to eat here.
413
00:36:03,119 --> 00:36:04,996
We've got amazing dongchimi.
414
00:36:05,955 --> 00:36:07,666
Take some with you.
I'll pack them for you.
415
00:36:07,749 --> 00:36:08,750
All right.
416
00:36:20,887 --> 00:36:23,682
If you think you would be fine
living on your own,
417
00:36:24,683 --> 00:36:25,850
just do that.
418
00:36:27,477 --> 00:36:29,688
It's okay for you to do that.
419
00:36:33,775 --> 00:36:36,611
I don't think someone who's
gotten married twice can say that.
420
00:36:39,656 --> 00:36:43,201
I can because I've done it twice.
421
00:36:49,999 --> 00:36:50,959
Your dad
422
00:36:52,669 --> 00:36:53,878
isn't strong.
423
00:36:56,548 --> 00:36:57,674
You guys
424
00:36:58,591 --> 00:36:59,926
are better than me.
425
00:37:37,297 --> 00:37:39,799
There's a film called Return To Paradise.
426
00:37:41,259 --> 00:37:42,886
I saw it when I was in high school.
427
00:37:44,429 --> 00:37:46,556
It's a story about three men backpacking.
428
00:37:48,516 --> 00:37:51,352
They hang out for a few days together
and then part ways.
429
00:37:52,061 --> 00:37:54,481
Two of them decide
to go back to their country,
430
00:37:54,564 --> 00:37:56,524
and one of them decides to stay.
431
00:37:58,026 --> 00:38:01,821
But after a few years,
some lawyer comes to talk to them.
432
00:38:03,114 --> 00:38:05,950
The three of them smoked marijuana
when they were together,
433
00:38:06,951 --> 00:38:10,538
but the one who stayed
got caught for possession.
434
00:38:12,540 --> 00:38:16,920
But the marijuana he had was enough
for him to receive the death penalty.
435
00:38:18,922 --> 00:38:22,550
The lawyer tells the two of them that
if they testify they were in it together,
436
00:38:23,218 --> 00:38:25,470
he could avoid the death penalty
since the punishment will be
437
00:38:25,553 --> 00:38:27,138
reduced by one-third.
438
00:38:27,847 --> 00:38:29,098
But…
439
00:38:29,724 --> 00:38:34,562
all three of them would have to
be in prison for three years.
440
00:38:36,147 --> 00:38:37,273
I wouldn't go.
441
00:38:41,236 --> 00:38:44,572
The one who was
pretending to be conscientious
442
00:38:44,656 --> 00:38:47,116
and said they should help him
avoid the death penalty
443
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,036
runs away after seeing
how bad the prison is in that country.
444
00:38:51,496 --> 00:38:52,372
But…
445
00:38:53,540 --> 00:38:55,291
the one who said he didn't want to go,
446
00:38:56,835 --> 00:38:59,921
he begins to change his mind
after seeing what it's like there.
447
00:39:01,214 --> 00:39:03,091
He thinks, "Shouldn't we stay with him?"
448
00:39:05,718 --> 00:39:08,596
In the end, the one who pretended
to be conscientious runs away,
449
00:39:09,973 --> 00:39:13,101
and the man who was arrested
is sentenced to death.
450
00:39:13,685 --> 00:39:16,604
And the one who changed his mind
testifies on his friend's behalf
451
00:39:16,688 --> 00:39:18,189
and becomes imprisoned.
452
00:39:20,108 --> 00:39:21,693
It's ridiculous, right?
453
00:39:22,902 --> 00:39:23,820
But…
454
00:39:24,696 --> 00:39:26,364
on the day of the execution,
455
00:39:27,407 --> 00:39:31,327
when the man who was sentenced
to death is trembling on the scaffold,
456
00:39:32,203 --> 00:39:37,000
the one who testified for him
shouts from inside his cell,
457
00:39:39,460 --> 00:39:41,087
"I'm here!"
458
00:39:42,380 --> 00:39:43,464
"Look into my eyes."
459
00:39:44,132 --> 00:39:45,717
"I'm right here!"
460
00:39:46,968 --> 00:39:48,928
"I'm right here!"
461
00:39:54,767 --> 00:39:55,852
For those ten minutes…
462
00:39:57,186 --> 00:39:58,479
Or maybe it was five.
463
00:40:00,773 --> 00:40:03,234
I felt I could be
in that prison for three years
464
00:40:04,611 --> 00:40:07,196
just to be able to experience
those five minutes.
465
00:40:10,283 --> 00:40:12,493
Though they weren't even close friends.
466
00:40:19,250 --> 00:40:20,168
You bastard.
467
00:40:21,210 --> 00:40:23,796
You watched an R-rated movie
when you were in high school…
468
00:40:27,926 --> 00:40:28,968
I'm on my way.
469
00:40:32,055 --> 00:40:34,098
They told me to hurry so we can go home.
470
00:40:35,725 --> 00:40:37,143
When are you coming again?

You know the test is at our store, right?
474
00:40:52,909 --> 00:40:54,827
I know. I'm leaving now.
475
00:40:55,495 --> 00:40:57,538
Why are you leaving so early?
It's only 11.
476
00:40:57,622 --> 00:41:01,000
I need to go set things up in advance.
I also need to stop by somewhere.
477
00:41:01,751 --> 00:41:02,919
I'll see you there.

Hurry here, quickly.
483
00:41:56,222 --> 00:41:59,517
We can't reach his guardian.
At this rate, it's a matter of hours.
484
00:42:00,143 --> 00:42:01,728
Do you have any other numbers?
485
00:42:01,811 --> 00:42:03,021
We don't.
486
00:42:03,688 --> 00:42:06,024
Give me his mother's number.
I'll try calling her.

Why aren't you here yet?
The people from HQ are here.
490
00:42:28,963 --> 00:42:30,590
I need to hang up for now.
491
00:42:31,424 --> 00:42:33,342
I got it. I'll call you back.

00:43:28,231 --> 00:43:29,107
Hyeok-su.
495
00:43:30,316 --> 00:43:31,359
I'm sorry
496
00:43:32,485 --> 00:43:34,070
for making you feel anxious.
497
00:43:37,115 --> 00:43:37,949
Hyeok-su.
498
00:43:40,243 --> 00:43:41,619
It will be just the two of us.
499
00:43:42,495 --> 00:43:43,704
I'll be here for you.
500
00:43:45,289 --> 00:43:46,249
I think…
501
00:43:48,084 --> 00:43:49,752
I was destined for things like this.
502
00:43:52,046 --> 00:43:55,174
I was also there when my grandpa,
grandma, and my mother
503
00:43:55,258 --> 00:43:56,717
passed away.
504
00:43:58,261 --> 00:43:59,345
Isn't it weird?
505
00:44:00,596 --> 00:44:03,724
Most people my age
haven't even witnessed one death.
506
00:44:06,352 --> 00:44:07,311
But…
507
00:44:09,438 --> 00:44:11,149
I think it's better that it's me.
508
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:13,651
Whenever I send them away,
509
00:44:15,319 --> 00:44:17,738
I was relieved that I was there.
510
00:44:22,076 --> 00:44:24,370
My legs led me here again, like a psychic.
511
00:44:28,499 --> 00:44:29,333
Hyeok-su.
512
00:44:32,086 --> 00:44:34,380
I know since I've sent three people away.
513
00:44:35,590 --> 00:44:36,507
When you go…
514
00:44:40,094 --> 00:44:41,387
you'll feel better.
515
00:44:44,265 --> 00:44:45,600
Their faces told me.
516
00:44:50,771 --> 00:44:52,106
So Hyeok-su,
517
00:44:53,774 --> 00:44:55,067
don't be afraid…
518
00:44:58,738 --> 00:44:59,822
and leave peacefully.
519
00:45:00,865 --> 00:45:01,866
Gently.
520
00:45:19,175 --> 00:45:20,343
I'm right here.
521
00:45:43,950 --> 00:45:47,578

They said to come starting tomorrow.
526
00:46:50,349 --> 00:46:53,185
Didn't you say
the one in Jamwon-dong pays well too?
527
00:46:54,562 --> 00:46:57,440
I'll keep working there,
and this is just for the weekend.
528
00:46:58,774 --> 00:47:01,235
I thought it'd be nice to work in Gangbuk.

Take it easy, no one's after you.
530
00:47:06,365 --> 00:47:11,746
I only feel alive
when I exhaust myself completely.
531
00:47:12,663 --> 00:47:16,208
If I have any energy left, I feel heavy.
532
00:47:17,209 --> 00:47:20,629
"Nothing has gone my way,
and I haven't achieved anything,
533
00:47:21,130 --> 00:47:23,340
but I've done my best at least."
534
00:47:25,342 --> 00:47:28,262
Is it like the way you feel spent
after having diarrhea?
535
00:47:30,723 --> 00:47:32,808
I wish I had diarrhea.
536
00:47:34,852 --> 00:47:36,020
Drink an iced latte.
537
00:47:36,562 --> 00:47:37,730
Shall I buy you one?
538
00:47:37,813 --> 00:47:40,483
I need to drink it at home, not outside.
539
00:47:46,822 --> 00:47:48,616
You look better than I expected.
540
00:47:50,326 --> 00:47:52,203
Why wouldn't I?
541
00:47:55,790 --> 00:47:59,001
The weather's nice.
Spring must be on its way.
542
00:48:00,169 --> 00:48:01,337
It must be.
543
00:48:02,296 --> 00:48:04,590
Spring will come, then summer,
544
00:48:05,549 --> 00:48:06,634
and then winter.
545
00:48:12,431 --> 00:48:13,641
Bye, then.
546
00:48:13,724 --> 00:48:14,642
Bye.
547
00:48:17,144 --> 00:48:20,147
I'll come to the convenience store
after work on the weekend.
548
00:48:36,664 --> 00:48:37,623
I regretted it.
549
00:48:40,209 --> 00:48:41,502
That I said
550
00:48:42,670 --> 00:48:46,257
I wanted to escape
from feeling weak at the Liberation Club.
551
00:48:48,676 --> 00:48:51,053
I feel like I meddled
with something unacceptable
552
00:48:51,137 --> 00:48:53,597
that I was supposed
to pretend not to know about.
553
00:48:54,306 --> 00:48:56,142
And because you, Gi-jeong,
554
00:48:56,934 --> 00:49:00,479
were drawn to me after hearing those words
and felt sorry for me,
555
00:49:01,856 --> 00:49:04,817
I realized you wouldn't be
able to leave me even if you wanted to.
556
00:49:05,401 --> 00:49:08,445
You're right, I can't leave you.
No, I won't leave you.
557
00:49:09,113 --> 00:49:10,948
What's wrong with being
drawn to someone out of pity?
558
00:49:12,032 --> 00:49:13,659
With human emotions,
559
00:49:13,742 --> 00:49:17,872
you can't always distinguish
between pity, respect, and love clearly.
560
00:49:17,955 --> 00:49:20,624
I can't. I've got them
all balled up in a lump.
561
00:49:21,792 --> 00:49:23,711
I respect you, Tae-hun.
562
00:49:23,794 --> 00:49:26,213
And I pity you and I love you.
I feel all of it.
563
00:49:30,384 --> 00:49:31,427
By the way,
564
00:49:32,803 --> 00:49:34,847
why did you cut your hair?
565
00:49:35,556 --> 00:49:36,390
What?
566
00:49:36,932 --> 00:49:38,726
Can't I cut my hair?
567
00:49:38,809 --> 00:49:40,269
Aren't I allowed?
568
00:49:50,529 --> 00:49:52,823
I don't know how it got like this.
569
00:49:54,158 --> 00:49:56,493
I wanted to be one to cheer you on.
570
00:49:56,577 --> 00:49:58,537
That's what I wanted,
571
00:50:00,164 --> 00:50:03,292
but it feels like I'm just another woman
who's making your life harder.
572
00:50:06,003 --> 00:50:08,839
I mean, to be honest, I don't know
what the problem is.
573
00:50:08,923 --> 00:50:10,925
"What did Tae-hun do that was so wrong?"
574
00:50:11,008 --> 00:50:13,260
"And why do I feel so wronged?"
575
00:50:13,802 --> 00:50:17,556
I mean, there's nothing particular
I can pick out as an example, it's just…
576
00:50:18,766 --> 00:50:22,269
It's just this general feeling
that I'm losing at something.
577
00:50:22,353 --> 00:50:24,980
I'm ashamed to be a woman
with so little self-esteem
578
00:50:25,064 --> 00:50:26,941
who breaks down at the glare of a kid.
579
00:50:27,566 --> 00:50:30,319
I was used to how
Gyeong-seon treats people.
580
00:50:30,402 --> 00:50:33,530
She's always been that way,
ever since high school.
581
00:50:33,614 --> 00:50:35,824
"But why are her words hurting me again?"
582
00:50:37,743 --> 00:50:38,911
"Because I love Tae-hun?"
583
00:50:39,578 --> 00:50:42,331
"But why does that have to be a reason
for me to feel small?"
584
00:50:43,165 --> 00:50:46,001
"Love is supposed to give you strength,
585
00:50:49,672 --> 00:50:52,508
but will I be happy if we broke up?"
586
00:50:55,094 --> 00:50:57,096
But if I imagine breaking up,
587
00:50:58,931 --> 00:51:00,140
my arm feels numb.
588
00:51:00,766 --> 00:51:03,227
I get a kind of shock under my arm.
589
00:51:05,354 --> 00:51:09,191
So, it's clear I can't break up with you,
which means I have to go further.
590
00:51:10,985 --> 00:51:13,153
But I don't know how to do that.
591
00:51:18,492 --> 00:51:21,203
I didn't say this
because it felt like an excuse,
592
00:51:22,788 --> 00:51:24,206
but I'll say it anyway.
593
00:51:27,084 --> 00:51:28,585
For some reason,
594
00:51:30,254 --> 00:51:33,674
when I see a kid toddling along
from behind,
595
00:51:36,593 --> 00:51:37,886
I feel bad.
596
00:51:39,805 --> 00:51:41,140
"In thirty years,
597
00:51:42,099 --> 00:51:44,435
what kind of burdens
will they be carrying around?"
598
00:51:45,894 --> 00:51:49,064
"What kind of humiliation
will they have endured?"
599
00:51:51,483 --> 00:51:53,152
"I was able to because it was me."
600
00:51:54,820 --> 00:51:55,863
"But that kid…"
601
00:51:58,032 --> 00:52:01,660
I wish that no child would ever
have to endure those kinds of things.
602
00:52:03,370 --> 00:52:05,414
And of course, I'm glad I have Yu-rim.
603
00:52:06,123 --> 00:52:09,168
I can't even imagine my life
without Yu-rim.
604
00:52:10,961 --> 00:52:12,588
"Was I happy to be born?"
605
00:52:15,215 --> 00:52:17,009
If I think about it seriously…
606
00:52:21,388 --> 00:52:22,264
the answer is no.
607
00:52:26,643 --> 00:52:29,521
I think that's why when you said
you weren't pregnant,
608
00:52:30,814 --> 00:52:31,815
I let out
609
00:52:33,567 --> 00:52:35,736
a sigh of relief involuntarily.
610
00:52:41,033 --> 00:52:42,034
That was it
611
00:52:42,951 --> 00:52:44,995
for Cho Tae-hun's excuse.
612
00:52:55,881 --> 00:52:56,799
But…
613
00:52:58,759 --> 00:53:01,387
if we have to live because we were born,
614
00:53:02,429 --> 00:53:04,306
how are we supposed to live?
615
00:53:10,187 --> 00:53:11,313
I'll be a man.
616
00:53:13,065 --> 00:53:14,983
Four women are too much for you, right?
617
00:53:15,067 --> 00:53:16,402
From today, I'm a man.
618
00:53:17,152 --> 00:53:18,153
I'm a man.
619
00:53:18,987 --> 00:53:20,989
That's why I cut my hair.
620
00:53:32,626 --> 00:53:34,628
Go on ahead. I'll stop by the bank.
621
00:53:34,711 --> 00:53:35,671
-Sure.
-Yes.
622
00:53:42,136 --> 00:53:43,387
Yes, what about the chief?
623
00:53:46,557 --> 00:53:47,516
Isn't he there?
624
00:53:49,726 --> 00:53:51,687
I really need to discuss this with him.
625
00:53:53,188 --> 00:53:54,440
One moment.
626
00:53:55,732 --> 00:53:57,025
Yes, sir.
627
00:53:57,526 --> 00:53:58,485
Take your card.
628
00:53:58,569 --> 00:54:00,863
Yes, I just got off the phone
with Mr. Lee.
629
00:54:01,738 --> 00:54:04,032
Yes, he said the handover wasn't complete.
630
00:54:04,616 --> 00:54:06,243
Oh, I see.
631
00:54:07,953 --> 00:54:09,163
Yes.
632
00:54:09,246 --> 00:54:10,581
Yes, I understand.
633
00:54:21,216 --> 00:54:24,052
He didn't. It was his bag.
634
00:55:02,674 --> 00:55:03,717
Do you
635
00:55:04,843 --> 00:55:06,303
work around here?
636
00:55:08,096 --> 00:55:09,306
Yes, at H Card.
637
00:55:14,019 --> 00:55:15,979
It seems you work around here, too.
638
00:55:17,731 --> 00:55:19,107
There, at MC Mall.
639
00:55:23,862 --> 00:55:25,572
I'll send you a million won tomorrow.
640
00:55:28,450 --> 00:55:30,118
Give me some more time for the rest.
641
00:55:35,123 --> 00:55:37,584
I'm sorry for dragging it out so long.
642
00:55:40,212 --> 00:55:41,588
It's fine.
643
00:55:42,422 --> 00:55:43,966
I'll be off. It's my lunch break.
644
00:55:45,425 --> 00:55:46,593
Right.
645
00:55:46,677 --> 00:55:47,678
Sure, bye.
646
00:56:14,580 --> 00:56:15,706
Yeom Mi-jeong.
647
00:56:19,418 --> 00:56:20,252
Yeom Mi-jeong!
648
00:56:41,773 --> 00:56:44,109
-Where are you headed?
-To buy alcohol.
649
00:56:45,444 --> 00:56:47,321
There's a convenience store this way too.
650
00:56:52,284 --> 00:56:55,829
I like it when you shout, "Yeom Mi-jeong!"
651
00:57:06,632 --> 00:57:10,218
When I went home, I read my old diaries,
and I was so surprised.
652
00:57:11,136 --> 00:57:13,305
Because the childhood that I remember
653
00:57:13,388 --> 00:57:15,932
and the one recorded in my diaries
were so different.
654
00:57:16,016 --> 00:57:20,062
I thought I was a clueless kid
who didn't feel anything for anyone
655
00:57:20,145 --> 00:57:22,814
and had no sense of presence.
656
00:57:23,523 --> 00:57:25,859
But in the diaries, I've got so much love.
657
00:57:26,485 --> 00:57:29,905
"I like her because of this.
I like him because of that."
658
00:57:30,656 --> 00:57:32,491
Turns out I was a really passionate kid.
659
00:57:33,617 --> 00:57:34,660
You didn't know?
660
00:57:35,994 --> 00:57:36,912
You're passionate.
661
00:57:45,671 --> 00:57:47,255
Why did you drink so much?
662
00:57:49,466 --> 00:57:50,634
Because I felt good.
663
00:57:59,726 --> 00:58:00,602
Sometimes…
664
00:58:02,604 --> 00:58:03,730
very occasionally,
665
00:58:06,274 --> 00:58:09,111
it's quiet inside my head
even when I'm sober.
666
00:58:11,989 --> 00:58:13,448
As if…
667
00:58:15,450 --> 00:58:16,994
everything's stopped, I guess?
668
00:58:19,287 --> 00:58:21,873
Then I pour in the hard liquor again.
669
00:58:26,503 --> 00:58:28,296
When I feel comfortable and happy
670
00:58:29,172 --> 00:58:32,259
I drink to break it
because I hate feeling that way.
671
00:58:34,136 --> 00:58:36,680
When I feel my life
is going okay, I drink.
672
00:58:38,056 --> 00:58:39,558
I beat myself up in advance.
673
00:58:41,309 --> 00:58:44,938
"I'm not happy."
674
00:58:47,357 --> 00:58:49,568
"I'm definitely not happy."
675
00:58:49,651 --> 00:58:50,986
"I've been miserable."
676
00:58:52,070 --> 00:58:55,699
"So please punish me just a little.
Please, only a little."
677
00:58:58,201 --> 00:59:01,079
"Waking up and sitting up
in the morning is hard."
678
00:59:01,997 --> 00:59:05,459
"I felt like I couldn't even
take five steps back,
679
00:59:05,542 --> 00:59:09,046
so I didn't go back for my umbrella
and walked in the rain."
680
00:59:11,465 --> 00:59:13,842
"Because those five steps
were too difficult,
681
00:59:14,384 --> 00:59:16,678
I got soaked in the rain."
682
00:59:17,763 --> 00:59:23,393
"My life is too hard, I'm so tired."
683
00:59:23,977 --> 00:59:28,523
"I'm already being punished harshly.
So please, I'm begging you!"
684
00:59:37,365 --> 00:59:38,992
Why are you so adorable?
685
00:59:52,547 --> 00:59:54,841
When those people come
to you again in the morning,
686
00:59:55,550 --> 00:59:56,593
laugh like you did now.
687
01:00:00,347 --> 01:00:01,473
Welcome them like that.
688
01:00:16,947 --> 01:00:18,198
Yeom Mi-jeong!
689
01:00:34,464 --> 01:00:35,423
Gi-jeong.
690
01:00:38,885 --> 01:00:40,137
Gi-jeong.
691
01:00:47,144 --> 01:00:50,272
Why did you buy more? I still have some.
692
01:00:51,189 --> 01:00:53,024
I just thought of it on my way.
693
01:00:53,775 --> 01:00:56,194
Wait. What's this?
694
01:00:56,278 --> 01:00:58,864
I felt a bit bad about always
just bringing you egg bread.
695
01:00:58,947 --> 01:01:00,073
Well, I'll be off.
696
01:01:00,574 --> 01:01:01,950
Wait. What is it?
697
01:01:04,369 --> 01:01:05,954
I asked you what this is!
698
01:01:06,955 --> 01:01:07,914
It's my heart.
699
01:01:08,832 --> 01:01:09,708
What?
700
01:01:49,414 --> 01:01:51,208
Pick-up girl, Yeom Gi-jeong.
701
01:01:51,791 --> 01:01:53,919
I found the head of a rose
that broke off from its stem
702
01:01:54,002 --> 01:01:56,588
and placed it in a soy sauce dish
filled with water.
703
01:01:57,797 --> 01:02:00,342
Even if I tried to make it stand,
it doesn't have a stem,
704
01:02:00,425 --> 01:02:02,219
so I laid it in a soy sauce dish.
705
01:02:04,429 --> 01:02:08,183
Wouldn't it be wonderful
if our love was a long-stemmed rose
706
01:02:08,266 --> 01:02:10,060
blooming beautifully in a vase?
707
01:02:10,852 --> 01:02:15,440
This rose lying exhausted
in a soy sauce dish reminded me of you
708
01:02:15,941 --> 01:02:16,858
and me.
709
01:02:18,068 --> 01:02:20,403
I'm afraid it would wither faster
if I'm not looking
710
01:02:20,487 --> 01:02:22,030
so I can't take my eyes off of it.
711
01:02:22,781 --> 01:02:25,075
That's the type of woman I am.
712
01:02:27,702 --> 01:02:29,621
A man who buys me egg bread
713
01:02:29,704 --> 01:02:32,791
once every three days
in the winter because I said I liked it.
714
01:02:34,125 --> 01:02:36,461
What if I said I liked beef?
715
01:02:38,421 --> 01:02:41,633
I compliment myself
for saying I liked egg bread,
716
01:02:43,009 --> 01:02:45,553
and as for you,
who always buys me egg bread…
717
01:02:47,639 --> 01:02:48,848
I love you.
718
01:02:58,566 --> 01:03:02,028
Tae-hun, the buttons on your coat
are done up wrong.
719
01:03:34,019 --> 01:03:35,437
I'll be back later. Take care.

-This must be it.
-Yes, it is.
724
01:04:10,722 --> 01:04:12,432
-It's right here.
-It's here.
725
01:04:12,515 --> 01:04:13,767
It's here.

LECTURE ROOM 302
727
01:04:22,776 --> 01:04:24,235
Hello, everyone.
728
01:04:24,319 --> 01:04:25,528
-Hello.
-Hello.
729
01:04:25,612 --> 01:04:27,655
-The weather's quite cold, isn't it?
-It is.
730
01:04:27,739 --> 01:04:30,825
All right. Let me just
take a quick look at you.
731
01:04:31,785 --> 01:04:32,619
All right.
732
01:04:36,122 --> 01:04:40,251
So, let's take some time
to get to know each other.
733
01:04:40,335 --> 01:04:42,921
You at the front, when's your birthday?
734
01:04:43,004 --> 01:04:44,047
It's May 9th.
735
01:04:44,130 --> 01:04:46,508
You were born on a good day.
736
01:04:46,591 --> 01:04:49,427
-And what about your birthday?
-Mine's September 19th.
737
01:04:49,511 --> 01:04:50,470
-September 19th?
-Yes.
738
01:04:50,553 --> 01:04:52,597
You were born on an even better day.
739
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:54,933
And may I ask the day you'll die?
740
01:04:55,016 --> 01:04:56,601
Yes, the day you'll die.
741
01:04:56,684 --> 01:04:57,727
You don't know yet?
742
01:04:57,811 --> 01:04:59,646
May I ask you when you're planning to die?
743
01:04:59,729 --> 01:05:01,064
I'm not sure.
744
01:05:01,147 --> 01:05:03,400
-You don't really know, right? Me neither.
-No.
745
01:05:03,483 --> 01:05:08,696
We all know when we were born,
but we have no idea when we'll die, right?
746
01:05:08,780 --> 01:05:12,492
So, whether you're alive or dead,
747
01:05:12,575 --> 01:05:15,328
you're never prepared
for your last journey.
748
01:05:15,912 --> 01:05:17,997
As those who've experienced it know,
749
01:05:18,081 --> 01:05:22,252
it's very sad when a precious person
in your life passes away.
750
01:05:22,335 --> 01:05:26,339
And the person
who stays beside them to help them
751
01:05:26,423 --> 01:05:28,133
leave comfortably and beautifully,
752
01:05:28,216 --> 01:05:32,637
and to help the rest of their family
see them off in peace, is…

01:05:37,892 --> 01:05:38,726
FUNERAL DIRECTOR
754
01:05:38,810 --> 01:05:41,855
A funeral director,
which all of you will soon become.
755
01:05:41,938 --> 01:05:44,691
Everyone, please take
the textbook out from under your desk.
756
01:05:44,774 --> 01:05:45,692
-Yes.
-Yes.

758
01:05:50,530 --> 01:05:53,867
-You've heard of a wedding planner, right?
-Yes.
759
01:05:53,950 --> 01:05:56,703
Their job is to manage the entire wedding.
760
01:05:56,786 --> 01:06:01,332
You could say that funeral directors
do the same for funerals.
761
01:06:01,416 --> 01:06:05,211
Like how a wedding is a ceremonial event
for a couple embarking on a new beginning,
762
01:06:05,295 --> 01:06:11,926
a funeral is also a ceremonial event
to mark the end of a person's life.
763
01:06:12,719 --> 01:06:13,761
Welcome.
764
01:06:15,096 --> 01:06:19,851
I'm glad to see everyone who's come here
to become a funeral director.
765
01:06:19,934 --> 01:06:22,353
My name is Choi Seok-jun.
766
01:06:22,437 --> 01:06:24,355
All right, then, what is a funeral?
767
01:06:24,439 --> 01:06:25,899
Turn to page 48.
768
01:06:26,566 --> 01:06:30,695
Let's take a look at the process
and the meaning of the modern funeral.
769
01:06:30,778 --> 01:06:34,157
You can read the opening paragraph
at home if you'd like.
770
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:38,953
In a three-day funeral,
there are many tasks that you must do.
771
01:06:39,037 --> 01:06:43,458
On the first day, the day the person dies,
the body is moved and placed in a coffin.
772
01:06:43,541 --> 01:06:47,545
Plans are then made for the funeral
and a funeral home is chosen,
773
01:06:47,629 --> 01:06:51,090
and mourners come after the news
of the death has been announced.
774
01:06:51,174 --> 01:06:53,426
On the second day,
the corpse is dressed, and…

777
01:07:19,536 --> 01:07:22,830
Let's restart The Liberation Club.
778
01:07:23,540 --> 01:07:24,749
Until it works.
779
01:07:36,010 --> 01:07:37,303
I would love to.
780
01:07:37,387 --> 01:07:38,555
I'm in.
781
01:07:45,645 --> 01:07:46,563
Let's do it.
782
01:07:49,107 --> 01:07:55,863
If you leave me just like that
783
01:07:57,407 --> 01:08:03,496
What will I do?
784
01:08:03,580 --> 01:08:05,290
-Hey, Ok-ja.
-Yes, sir.
785
01:08:06,124 --> 01:08:07,959
How old are you? This song's old.
786
01:08:10,003 --> 01:08:11,921
It's because I have an old-fashioned name.
787
01:09:22,033 --> 01:09:23,409
How dare you touch my money?
788
01:09:29,332 --> 01:09:30,500
Put it down.
789
01:09:31,459 --> 01:09:32,335
Go on.
790
01:09:36,756 --> 01:09:41,511
The manager here owes us
160 million won in gambling debt,
791
01:09:41,594 --> 01:09:43,179
but this is only 50 million.
792
01:09:43,262 --> 01:09:47,642
What shall we do? When will you
give me the other 110 million?
793
01:10:00,905 --> 01:10:05,076
Boss. You can leave first.
We'll take care of the rest here.
794
01:10:06,202 --> 01:10:07,537
If we're lucky,
795
01:10:08,413 --> 01:10:10,498
we might be able to get
the rest of the money.
796
01:10:13,584 --> 01:10:16,003
Did you all take classes
to learn to talk like that?
797
01:10:16,879 --> 01:10:18,840
How do you all sound exactly the same?
798
01:10:18,923 --> 01:10:22,009
"I wasn't good in school, I'm a dropout."
799
01:10:25,596 --> 01:10:26,681
Hey, Woo-bin.
800
01:10:28,558 --> 01:10:29,434
Kim Woo-bin.
801
01:10:30,518 --> 01:10:31,352
Yes, sir!
802
01:10:32,228 --> 01:10:33,062
Close the shop.
803
01:10:34,021 --> 01:10:35,398
We won't be opening today.
804
01:10:37,650 --> 01:10:40,069
Close the shop! We're not open today!
805
01:10:40,153 --> 01:10:41,237
You bastard!
806
01:12:27,593 --> 01:12:28,594
Hey, Chun-ja.
807
01:12:32,515 --> 01:12:34,433
Chun-ja. Hey.
808
01:12:35,434 --> 01:12:36,435
Hey.
809
01:12:36,519 --> 01:12:37,395
Chun-ja.
810
01:12:38,688 --> 01:12:39,522
Hey.
811
01:12:40,106 --> 01:12:41,190
Yes…
812
01:12:41,274 --> 01:12:42,233
Yes, sir.
813
01:13:38,122 --> 01:13:41,042
HYEON-JIN
814
01:13:51,928 --> 01:13:54,555
The person you have called
is currently unavailable.
815
01:13:54,639 --> 01:13:58,100
You'll be directed
to voicemail after the tone.
816
01:14:08,069 --> 01:14:09,654
You're now one of the people
817
01:14:12,907 --> 01:14:16,911
who come to me
in the morning when I'm sober.
818
01:14:18,579 --> 01:14:22,333
You're one of the people who make me
curse from the moment I wake up.
819
01:14:23,834 --> 01:14:24,710
Hyeon-jin.
820
01:14:28,881 --> 01:14:30,007
I'll welcome you back.
821
01:14:32,927 --> 01:14:34,637
I'll welcome you with arms wide open,
822
01:14:37,890 --> 01:14:39,392
so I hope to see you again alive.
823
01:16:05,603 --> 01:16:06,562
Seven seconds.
824
01:17:02,076 --> 01:17:04,537
FIVE HUNDRED WON
825
01:17:37,153 --> 01:17:39,905
There's this part in my liberation note.
826
01:17:40,614 --> 01:17:42,283
Yeom Mi-jeong's life is
827
01:17:42,366 --> 01:17:46,620
divided into two parts,
before and after she met Mr. Gu.
828
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:03,179
I must be crazy.
829
01:18:07,057 --> 01:18:08,100
I feel
830
01:18:08,851 --> 01:18:10,269
so lovable.
831
01:18:15,858 --> 01:18:17,276
Trudging on…
832
01:18:20,154 --> 01:18:22,865
step by step.
833
01:18:26,076 --> 01:18:29,455
There's nothing but love in my heart.
834
01:18:30,915 --> 01:18:31,957
So…
835
01:18:33,375 --> 01:18:35,419
I can't feel anything but love.
