Episode 1
Macao 1981
The motorbikes have been following us.
Don't you find anything suspicious about it?
These motorbike gangs are a common sight here in Macao.
There's nothing to worry, President.
Quickly! Quickly!
Faster!
Something is wrong.
Shake off these motorbikes with full speed!
Faster! Quickly! Quickly!
Ken, they are here.
Move, move.
Why are you doing this?
Ken.
Lee Dong Chul.
So it's you.
You still remember me.
That's right, I'm Lee Dong Chul.
Long time no see.
Your crime for killing my father...
I'm going to take revenge for it.
You worthless piece of trash
not even worthy to be killed.
Shin Tae Hwan.
You didn't even become half of what your father was.
How you talk so big when you came
to Macao only to become a street ruffian?
I'm the one who wasted too much energy
on trying to kill someone as worthless as you.
Say it.
Say it.
Say it quickly before you die.
It was you who killed my father.
You are..
Say that you are the murderer who killed my father.
SAY IT!
Dong Chul...
The person with the real courage is...
someone who is able to accommodate everyone,
no matter if they are good or bad people.
Brother Ken, Brother Ken!
The people from their side is coming,
we have to leave immediately!
Dong Chul, they are coming. Let's go!
Hwang Chi 1961
Dong Chul.
Love your enemy.
And feel compassion for your enemy.
Confess all of your sins.
And tightly hold the cross given from above.
Hold it upon your shoulder.
Because that is the only thing that you are able to do.
Dong Chul's father!
Dong Chul's father!
Oh my, that girl now is publicly making
herself the wife of my brother in-law.
Those people have been following you
from the train station.
There have been a gang of people who
have been trailing us from the coal mine.
Father.
One, two.
I heard that you are the new priest.
It's too late to say the greetings.
But, Father...
Why must people say out so much
nonsense in order to survive?
That saintly confession.
How many times must it be done?
To be able to avoid the judgment of hell.
Where did you send her to?
Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
Isn't she carrying your child now?
Father, you have lots of nonsense to say as well.
Father.
Am I the person that will protect that child?
I'm only doing what I should do as a person.
Father, you only have to do
what a priest supposed to do.
Mr. Shin Tae Hwan
Punishment...
Always force yourself to face death.
Punishment?
Death?
Then how many people will be surviving
in this world if that's the case?
Are you going to cover up
your first sin by creating another?
Who is?
Since I was blinded by the body,
Let's not stop until we both fall,
that the way the women think.
It's not me.
Please show compassion for Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
Are you saying that I should have two wives?
Isn't that a even bigger sin?
Don't you know that the sin that
you commit is able to destroy a soul?
I don't know.
I don't care about other people's soul.
Isn't this your area of expertise?
Father.
The birds who fly in the sky are able
to feed even without a feeding cupboard.
The wild flowers on Tae Bak mountain are able
to bloom even without giving any water.
This land...
The people of the coal mine village.
Because of me, Shin Tae Hwan.
Don't you know that the people of
this town depend on me for their survival?
My concern and compassion are only like this.
Not just that...
Even the rice that you eat has come
from me as well, isn't it so?
Where did you take her to? Nurse Yoo Mi Ae!
You should have warned her to leave earlier so that
she wouldn't die like a fly playing by the candle flame!
Unni!
Are you not in?
Unni! Are you there?
Something happened, something happened!
Hyungboo* is going to be
snatched away by that girl!
{\a6}(*Brother-in-law)
That wretch took Dong Chul to the station
to fetch him just like you told me.
And she is making herself
just like his wife in public.
Calling out "Dong Chul's father" here and there.
And pulled him directly into her home.
Are you now listening to me?
Your husband is going to be snatched
away by someone else!
Just mind your own business, girl!
Oh my, even the baby in your stomach
is going to get drunk.
You listen well to me.
My husband, Lee Ki Chul, your first love.
You came running to the coal mine village here
because you can't forget your first love.
Even if that's way your life's going to be.
Do you know what the last hope of my life?
The last hope of my life is...
It's to have a coal mine accident.
After my coal mining husband dies.
I'll leave here after getting
a large amount of insurance money.
- Ok Hee, you wretch.
- Yeah sis.
Do it properly for me, girl.
Ok Hee, you...
Repeat it to me one more time
about whatever news you had heard.
If Hyungboo dies due to a coal mining accident,
Half of his insurance money will be given
to this wretch like his will was written.
Is what you said the truth?
That's right.
Just look at this girl's expressions.
She doesn't look like someone
who wants the insurance money.
Right?
Is that right, girl?
I wouldn't had came to coal mine village,
if it's for the insurance money.
You wouldn't had came to coal mine village,
if it's for the insurance money.
You sound rather daring from the way you speak.
So why did you come here for, girl?!
I...
I'm already satisfied to be able
to live under the same skies.
I'm already satisfied to be able
to live under the same skies.
That's so funny.
Is it truth that you gave up your studies
at the educational or whatever university?
Answer me, girl!
That's right.
Why didn't you continue with your studies
and become a good teacher?
Why did you come here to act like this?
This place is a scary place
where people live in fear.
We don't know whether we will die today or tomorrow!
Didn't she already give up her life for love?
You've got it wrong, girl!
Here...
I have Lee Gi Chul's seed in me.
It was in before you even came back.
You could never know about it, sis.
How could you know there isn't Hyungboo's
"seeds" over there?
Oh my, look at that melancholic expression.
What's that?
Are you saying that you only have the innocent
pure feelings of one who looks from a far?
I don't care if it's a pure or nonsensical love.
I don't care if it's a pure love or whatever.
I'm good as long as he hasn't written down a will for you.
Where did you let my son sleep?
He wouldn't leave his father.
He took him with him?
Citing the reason that the sell trade
of petroleum is not doing well.
The trips of the coal transporting trucks
have been cut down as well.
And so, the bath houses, hairdressers and motels...
Even the tea houses are all prohibited to use coal.
That is why we are suffering like this.
And this time it's said to be
the Prop policy of coals supplies.
We must also find a way to live on by using this chance!
I would rather die than to be living like this!
That's right.
This is not how a person should live.
Living life incomparable even to
the field mice who lives underground.
No matter if we live or die.
We have to raise a revolution first.
We must stand up so that the nation's
"groundhogs" can receive human treatment.
Union Head Lee, don't you back out like the last time.
You must implement it this time, please.
Do you have anything to be afraid of?
Union Head Lee.
What's there to fear?
It's our last chance.
And also, we aren't in any situation
where it can become worse.
You must be mentally prepared to die.
Poster, false accusation, dismissal,
Leap month, political election, Samcheok*
{/a6}(*a city in Gangwon island)
So as to say, this fellow is the one
who is plotting the nationwide strikes?
That's right.
No matter what Tae Sung is still the
whole nation's number one power center.
And so, that person is planning
a nationwide rebellion under his leadership.
When was this arrest warrant issued?
It seems like he was already involved in activism
movements when he was still a student.
That man must be a communist for sure.
Abolish the union, the fellow who destroy the
social group has violated the anti-communist law.
Oh my, these pig trotters are so frustrating.
Girl, use your strength to wash.
Will the customers be buying these?
Oh my, I'm already doing it.
- I'm the only one who is willing to help..
- You do this all the time yet you never stop complaining!
Oh my, I really can't bear to watch.
Dong Chul!
Which bird is your father
and which bird is yours?
The bird here is Father's and this one here is mine.
The birds can protect your father
from accidents at the coal mine, right?
Yes.
That's right, the heavens will be moved by your sincerity.
Hey, rascal.
There are only yours and your father's birds.
Where has your mom's bird gone to?
Mom and dongsaeng's birds are outside.
{\a6}(*dongsaeng = siblings)
That rascal doesn't know anyone else besides his father.
I'm going to break your legs today
if you go to that eatery again!
Dad, does it hurt?
You are gritting the pain, right?
Have you been carrying the coal again today?
Yes.
Can't you not carry them, Dad?
Dong Chul.
A person's shoulders is to be used to carry things.
Not only is it for carrying the shoulder basket.
It's used for carrying our family,
people who are weaker than us.
Moving forward while carrying the world,
this is what our shoulders are for.
Carrying the world?
That's right.
A person's shoulders are really strong
enough to carry the world.
Hey, don't tell him such nonsense during meals.
When you can't even manage your own family.
Your wife still have to cook the trotters and seafood.
I'm already tired to death with
all the carrying and shouldering.
Carrying whatever world.
Oh my, my brother in-law has been shouldering
all the coal mine's worrying matters.
Are you a mute, a mute?
Why are you always making these
hand-signals when you are not a mute?
Do you have so much things to talk to
your dad that you have to keep me in the dark?
Right, you rascal.
Are you still going to go that eatery?
How can you put your mom aside
and pull other people's skirt?
I like that Ahjumma.
What's there to like about her, rascal?
She tells me things that happened a long time ago
and gives me lots of delicious things.
And she even teaches me how to do my homework.
What?
Where are you going when you haven't
even finished your breakfast, rascal?!
Oh my, you really have taught him well.
Letting the outside woman find
her way here right in front of the child.
And still meddle in other people's business
when you don't even know your limits.
Please, I beg you to manage your own
family first. Your family, I beg you.
Hey, are you ignoring me?
Then why don't you just get into a coal mining
accident since you have nothing better to do?
Let me change my fate as well when I get the large
amount of insurance money after the accident!
Is that really your wish?
That's right.
How many times do you want me
to repeat it for you to believe?
Well, you won't be saying things
that you are insincere about, right?
Yes, that's right.
The faster the better.
I'm praying it to be faster, faster..
What?
Is the stomach's baby coming out?
Unfaithful cad, unfaithful cad!
That girl, that girl...
You only made me pregnant
to chase that girl away, right?
To let that girl leave here.
Bad fella! Unfaithful cad!
I hope that you'll be giving birth to a son.
So that your father won't allow his grandson
be raised in a coal mine village.
This coal mine...
If it's the will of the workers
to have this meaningless life,
then it will also be the will of the coal
mine owners to have the same fate.
The baby can hear it, honey.
How long will I be left to rot over here?
Don't you know what is the core business
in the Tae Sang Group?
Ever since Grandfather's time,
it has been the coal business.
So how can you be the successor if you know
nothing about the mining industry?
Successor?
You mean that Father has plans
to make me the successor?
I'll do that as well if I am him.
I would get the best man who is best to his family
and train him to become my predecessor.
Yes.
Yes, Father?
How is the atmosphere there?
It's quiet for now.
I have been receiving many calls
about how we use our explosives.
Citing the reason that our Tae Sung
is the head of our country's collieries.
Do you know the meanings of these words?
It's oil shock.
Because of oil shock, the government wants
to implement plans to increase coal productions.
But they are afraid that the miners will go
on strike and cause social problems.
So you understand about it.
They plan on a thorough investigation,
so make sure that you make
a way for yourself to get out.
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.
Why?
The governmental energy rulings.
They are now planning to make a move
as they know that it'll affect our colliery's survival.
Who?
The union members.
Dad.
One, two, three, four...
You will be finishing work at four, right?
Don't come to the colliery. It's dangerous.
I want to fetch you.
Ahjumma!
Ahjumma!
Dong Chul!
Dad!
Dong Chul, do that again.
As much as the heaven and earth, I love you, Dad!
My dad is the best in the world!
I see him.
It's Lee Ki Chul, sir.
The person right in the middle,
carrying a birdcage.
What are those things in the bird cage he's carrying?
They are used to test if there are
any poisonous gas in the mines.
The birds will die first if there are
any poisonous gas leaks in the mines.
An influential figure in the workers' union.
I never thought he would be
a coward who carries a birdcage.
Why aren't you answering?
His influence is much larger than his appearance.
Then, we have to get rid of him.
What?
He is the person who is opposing the government's
mine industry Prop policy.
And also...
There's no need for person who has a bigger influence
than Shin Tae Hwan in the Tae Sung colliery.
Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
What happened to you?
Thank you.
I sent Father over since the train station can't
function without a platform master.
Right, are you fine?
Father. Is Nurse Yoo really alright?
Anyway, I still feel that it'll be best
if we would to let her leave.
Father.
Father...
Jung Soon..!
You...
Are all of you in?
Then, we are moving.
Hey, girl! Do you wish to be killed by me?
Am I hoping for the birth of this child?
Do I have the heart to come to the hospital to give birth?
- This way, quickly.
- Let go of me, girl.
Then why didn't you give birth by yourself
instead of calling a busy person like me?
It's you guys who are giving birth because you like it,
so why must you make an unrelated person worry?
Hey, jerk! Give me my change!
I have to get back the change, girl!
- Where are you going without giving me my change?!
- Oh my, you are really.
Why are you putting the change into your pocket?
Take it all down, take it all down so that
the child's father will return it to you.
Fine, fine, just walk faster.
Push, push me from the back.
- Push harder.
- I know...
Careful! Careful!
Sir, Dong Chul really raised the birds well.
Yes.
He really believes that these
two birds will really protect me.
That's right. Our bodies are our wealth.
So all of you must take care of your health.
No matter how I think, there doesn't seem
to be any hope on this piece of land.
It's better to leave here earlier
when you are still young.
The life of drifting with the current,
no matter how much efforts you put in it.
Hyungnim, why are you saying
such discouraging words again?
Even when we have to leave, we must also
reply back in a loud voice before leaving.
Forget it.
What?
Isn't this Nurse Yoo?
Why is your face almost unrecognizable?
Are you sick?
Yes.
The baby's mother...
your name is Yang Chun Hee, right?
Yes.
How's your contraction?
Feels like he can come out any minute now...
But there isn't any movement now...
That's right.
Anyway since we don't have any money.
It's better of you to come out
so we can go home earlier.
Do you remember, Nurse Yoo?
I wanted to let you help me
with my abortion at that time.
But you stopped me by saying
something about human rights.
Not knowing if you are going to die today
or tomorrow in this coal mine village.
It's already hard to make a living.
He's dying to come out to say hello to his parents.
Stop!
Stop!
Switch off!
I have already given orders that
"Coal Mine Arirang" is a forbidden song.
Did you forget it?
If not, have I heard wrongly?
Stop!
STOP!
Stop!!!
Not any random person is allowed to touch
the "medals" on the shoulders of the miners.
No matter who it is.
It should be,
The resultant "medals" from the friction
of the harness you carry on your back.
But still...
Why am I a random person?
Thanks to the mining industry, you have rice to feed
down your throat so you should learn to be humble,
if you still wish for rice to feed down your throat!
And you cad.
A piece of wretched thing.
Samcheok, false accusation,
Gangneung, loyalty, leap month!
How dare you scurry around without my permission.
If I was to fall, then everybody here will fall as well!
Don't you know this?!
If you rub me the wrong way,
I will pierce a hole through your nose,
and tie on a bridle for you.
Your explanation of our basic
necessities in life is all wrong, sir.
The food and clothing in this coal mining
village are not bestowed by you.
But earned from the blood and sweat of the miners.
Using our lives, sacrificing our lives.
The blood and sweat of the miners,
which fattens up your intestines,
even Tae Sung group are dependent on them for survival!
If you wrongly treat the lives of
the miners like field rats,
It will be your ruin if you believe
the lives of us workers are needless!
Sir, let's go. Let us go out!
Which jerk?! Which rascal switched on the water?!
Who?!
Sir, let's go out.
They aren't even worth it to be talking to you.
Let's go, sir.
Please bear with it, Madam.
Are you crying, Dong Chul?
Dong Chul is even more courageous than Dad today.
But why are you crying?
I'm not crying.
Dad.
Yes.
Why does that person hate you so much?
Why doesn't he allow the uncles to sing as well?
Why?
Maybe because he's scared.
Scared?
Yeah.
That person's heart is like a bird's heart.
A bird's heart is a coward that only knows his own.
A coward always goes after others first
because he's scared that he might get hurt.
So he hurts others first.
Come here.
Dong Chul.
Yes.
Look at the mountain over there.
That's the Tae Baek mountain.
Can you see it clearly?
Yes.
A man with the real courage...
His heart must be able to accommodate
that Tae Baek mountain.
That is a really big mountain.
How am I to do it?
When I grow up to be as big as you,
I will go bash up those bad people.
Dong Chul.
Yeah?
A real man's heart.
Bad people, good people..
He is able to accommodate all.
- Even bad people too?
- Yes.
Then, Dad, don't you hate that Ahjussi?
This is really hard, but...
I'm putting an effort to do it.
Looks like... there are signs of Pregnancy Toxemia.
If we can't treat her in Hwang Chi,
go to Jangseong-gun.
She needs to get treatment immediately.
I apologize, Father.
I wanted to end my life by jumping off the train.
But I couldn't do it and ended up coming here instead.
There are lots of people watching around here.
Regardless of Jangseong or Gangneung,
I'll go find a hospital.
Father.
Why didn't you ask me anything at all?
It's good that you are alive.
You too.
The baby as well.
Excuse me...
Mom.
Is it a son or daughter?
Son or daughter?
Oh my, you cad.
Where did you knock your face into?
It's as crumpled as a broken metal alms bowl.
Is the baby alive?
Why? If the mother and child died,
Then you can dream of living with your first love?
Both of us are alive because we won't tolerate it.
Mom, do I have a brother or sister?
You, rascal. I won't be giving birth to daughter.
I have a brother, Dad!
Let's go and see him, Dong Chul.
Unfaithful.
He only wants to look at his child.
Excuse me...
Miss, where is Yang Chun Hee's baby?
- Yang Chun Hee's?
- Yes..
Is it really that child?
Yes, his mother is Yang Chun Hee.
Congratulations, sir.
Your wife, Miss Oh Yun Hee.
She just had a smooth delivery.
It's a healthy son.
Is that so?
Thank you very much.
Please look it's a healthy son.
You must have waited anxiously
for this day, haven't you?
Dad. I gave birth ten days
ahead of the predicted due date.
Maybe he is a quick temperamental like his father.
Yeah...
He's like his dad and me as well.
He says that he looks like you.
Yes.
When?
Tomorrow morning?
Oh my, you are coming to see
your grandson in a helicopter?
Our Shin Myung Hun's grandfather is the best.
Didn't you give him that name, Shin Myung Hun?
Yes.
It's your turn.
Yes, I'm on the line, Father.
Yes. You don't have to worry about the strike.
I'll stop it effectively.
Please believe me and leave it in my hands.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes, I got it.
What's wrong? Why are you so nervous
the moment you answered Father's call?
This is not like you.
Sir.
Listen well.
If a person's desires too much,
They will end up throwing away their own lives.
You should make use of the chance when
I'm still able to show you a little compassion.
How dare you... ignored my warnings
and came back again!
You still don't understand me by now?!
You don't know it yet?!
- I know.
- You know?!
You are... a person by the name of Shin Tae Hwan.
No, you are not a human.
You dug out a living and kicking fetus
from my stomach and killed it.
You are worst off than a beast.
A devilish murderer!
So why do you still dare to come here,
looking for a murderer when you are aware of it?
How could you?
How could you be so cruel-hearted
as to kill your own child?
My child?
Are you crazy?
In my life, that child.
No, that child does not exist in our contract.
That's only the 'seed' of our uncontrollable passion.
Stupid, muddled, unreasonable, rash.
What's this place?
How dare you come back here again!
Just take enough to feed you for the rest of your life,
It's only right for you to disappear after you have
taken enough money to last you two life-times!
Even if it's a thousand or ten thousand times,
I should have already told you
that what I wanted wasn't money.
So please just disappear.
While you're still able to keep your life,
I beg you to leave.
That's right.
Before I die...
I'll kill you first and then I'll...
End it all.
Are you crazy?!
The crazy devil is you.
Sir, what's wrong?
She finally became insane.
Come take the knife away!
Yes.
You're going to lose your life as well
if you are not going to leave immediately.
This is just what I wanted to say.
Your life is in my hands, remember that.
From now on, I will live...
to destroy Shin Tae Hwan's life and tear
his heart into a thousand and million pieces!
Disappear!
Even if I disappeared, don't you dare rest at ease.
- Forget all this.
- Don't you even forget! Just wait!
You are to wait for it even if you are to die!
Even if you're dead,
I'll dig you up from the grave!
Cut off your head and take my revenge!
My child?
Are you crazy?
In my life, that child.
No, that child does not exist in our contract.
That's only the 'seed' of our uncontrollable passion.
Is it really that child?
Yes, his mother is Yang Chun Hee.
It's already hard to make a living.
He's dying to come out to say hello to his parents.

Episode 1
Macao 1981
The motorbikes have been following us.
Don't you find anything suspicious about it?
These motorbike gangs are a common sight here in Macao.
There's nothing to worry, President.
Quickly! Quickly!
Faster!
Something is wrong.
Shake off these motorbikes with full speed!
Faster! Quickly! Quickly!
Ken, they are here.
Move, move.
Why are you doing this?
Ken.
Lee Dong Chul.
So it's you.
You still remember me.
That's right, I'm Lee Dong Chul.
Long time no see.
Your crime for killing my father...
I'm going to take revenge for it.
You worthless piece of trash
not even worthy to be killed.
Shin Tae Hwan.
You didn't even become half of what your father was.
How you talk so big when you came
to Macao only to become a street ruffian?
I'm the one who wasted too much energy
on trying to kill someone as worthless as you.
Say it.
Say it.
Say it quickly before you die.
It was you who killed my father.
You are..
Say that you are the murderer who killed my father.
SAY IT!
Dong Chul...
The person with the real courage is...
someone who is able to accommodate everyone,
no matter if they are good or bad people.
Brother Ken, Brother Ken!
The people from their side is coming,
we have to leave immediately!
Dong Chul, they are coming. Let's go!
Hwang Chi 1961
Dong Chul.
Love your enemy.
And feel compassion for your enemy.
Confess all of your sins.
And tightly hold the cross given from above.
Hold it upon your shoulder.
Because that is the only thing that you are able to do.
Dong Chul's father!
Dong Chul's father!
Oh my, that girl now is publicly making
herself the wife of my brother in-law.
Those people have been following you
from the train station.
There have been a gang of people who
have been trailing us from the coal mine.
Father.
One, two.
I heard that you are the new priest.
It's too late to say the greetings.
But, Father...
Why must people say out so much
nonsense in order to survive?
That saintly confession.
How many times must it be done?
To be able to avoid the judgment of hell.
Where did you send her to?
Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
Isn't she carrying your child now?
Father, you have lots of nonsense to say as well.
Father.
Am I the person that will protect that child?
I'm only doing what I should do as a person.
Father, you only have to do
what a priest supposed to do.
Mr. Shin Tae Hwan
Punishment...
Always force yourself to face death.
Punishment?
Death?
Then how many people will be surviving
in this world if that's the case?
Are you going to cover up
your first sin by creating another?
Who is?
Since I was blinded by the body,
Let's not stop until we both fall,
that the way the women think.
It's not me.
Please show compassion for Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
Are you saying that I should have two wives?
Isn't that a even bigger sin?
Don't you know that the sin that
you commit is able to destroy a soul?
I don't know.
I don't care about other people's soul.
Isn't this your area of expertise?
Father.
The birds who fly in the sky are able
to feed even without a feeding cupboard.
The wild flowers on Tae Bak mountain are able
to bloom even without giving any water.
This land...
The people of the coal mine village.
Because of me, Shin Tae Hwan.
Don't you know that the people of
this town depend on me for their survival?
My concern and compassion are only like this.
Not just that...
Even the rice that you eat has come
from me as well, isn't it so?
Where did you take her to? Nurse Yoo Mi Ae!
You should have warned her to leave earlier so that
she wouldn't die like a fly playing by the candle flame!
Unni!
Are you not in?
Unni! Are you there?
Something happened, something happened!
Hyungboo* is going to be
snatched away by that girl!
{\a6}(*Brother-in-law)
That wretch took Dong Chul to the station
to fetch him just like you told me.
And she is making herself
just like his wife in public.
Calling out "Dong Chul's father" here and there.
And pulled him directly into her home.
Are you now listening to me?
Your husband is going to be snatched
away by someone else!
Just mind your own business, girl!
Oh my, even the baby in your stomach
is going to get drunk.
You listen well to me.
My husband, Lee Ki Chul, your first love.
You came running to the coal mine village here
because you can't forget your first love.
Even if that's way your life's going to be.
Do you know what the last hope of my life?
The last hope of my life is...
It's to have a coal mine accident.
After my coal mining husband dies.
I'll leave here after getting
a large amount of insurance money.
- Ok Hee, you wretch.
- Yeah sis.
Do it properly for me, girl.
Ok Hee, you...
Repeat it to me one more time
about whatever news you had heard.
If Hyungboo dies due to a coal mining accident,
Half of his insurance money will be given
to this wretch like his will was written.
Is what you said the truth?
That's right.
Just look at this girl's expressions.
She doesn't look like someone
who wants the insurance money.
Right?
Is that right, girl?
I wouldn't had came to coal mine village,
if it's for the insurance money.
You wouldn't had came to coal mine village,
if it's for the insurance money.
You sound rather daring from the way you speak.
So why did you come here for, girl?!
I...
I'm already satisfied to be able
to live under the same skies.
I'm already satisfied to be able
to live under the same skies.
That's so funny.
Is it truth that you gave up your studies
at the educational or whatever university?
Answer me, girl!
That's right.
Why didn't you continue with your studies
and become a good teacher?
Why did you come here to act like this?
This place is a scary place
where people live in fear.
We don't know whether we will die today or tomorrow!
Didn't she already give up her life for love?
You've got it wrong, girl!
Here...
I have Lee Gi Chul's seed in me.
It was in before you even came back.
You could never know about it, sis.
How could you know there isn't Hyungboo's
"seeds" over there?
Oh my, look at that melancholic expression.
What's that?
Are you saying that you only have the innocent
pure feelings of one who looks from a far?
I don't care if it's a pure or nonsensical love.
I don't care if it's a pure love or whatever.
I'm good as long as he hasn't written down a will for you.
Where did you let my son sleep?
He wouldn't leave his father.
He took him with him?
Citing the reason that the sell trade
of petroleum is not doing well.
The trips of the coal transporting trucks
have been cut down as well.
And so, the bath houses, hairdressers and motels...
Even the tea houses are all prohibited to use coal.
That is why we are suffering like this.
And this time it's said to be
the Prop policy of coals supplies.
We must also find a way to live on by using this chance!
I would rather die than to be living like this!
That's right.
This is not how a person should live.
Living life incomparable even to
the field mice who lives underground.
No matter if we live or die.
We have to raise a revolution first.
We must stand up so that the nation's
"groundhogs" can receive human treatment.
Union Head Lee, don't you back out like the last time.
You must implement it this time, please.
Do you have anything to be afraid of?
Union Head Lee.
What's there to fear?
It's our last chance.
And also, we aren't in any situation
where it can become worse.
You must be mentally prepared to die.
Poster, false accusation, dismissal,
Leap month, political election, Samcheok*
{/a6}(*a city in Gangwon island)
So as to say, this fellow is the one
who is plotting the nationwide strikes?
That's right.
No matter what Tae Sung is still the
whole nation's number one power center.
And so, that person is planning
a nationwide rebellion under his leadership.
When was this arrest warrant issued?
It seems like he was already involved in activism
movements when he was still a student.
That man must be a communist for sure.
Abolish the union, the fellow who destroy the
social group has violated the anti-communist law.
Oh my, these pig trotters are so frustrating.
Girl, use your strength to wash.
Will the customers be buying these?
Oh my, I'm already doing it.
- I'm the only one who is willing to help..
- You do this all the time yet you never stop complaining!
Oh my, I really can't bear to watch.
Dong Chul!
Which bird is your father
and which bird is yours?
The bird here is Father's and this one here is mine.
The birds can protect your father
from accidents at the coal mine, right?
Yes.
That's right, the heavens will be moved by your sincerity.
Hey, rascal.
There are only yours and your father's birds.
Where has your mom's bird gone to?
Mom and dongsaeng's birds are outside.
{\a6}(*dongsaeng = siblings)
That rascal doesn't know anyone else besides his father.
I'm going to break your legs today
if you go to that eatery again!
Dad, does it hurt?
You are gritting the pain, right?
Have you been carrying the coal again today?
Yes.
Can't you not carry them, Dad?
Dong Chul.
A person's shoulders is to be used to carry things.
Not only is it for carrying the shoulder basket.
It's used for carrying our family,
people who are weaker than us.
Moving forward while carrying the world,
this is what our shoulders are for.
Carrying the world?
That's right.
A person's shoulders are really strong
enough to carry the world.
Hey, don't tell him such nonsense during meals.
When you can't even manage your own family.
Your wife still have to cook the trotters and seafood.
I'm already tired to death with
all the carrying and shouldering.
Carrying whatever world.
Oh my, my brother in-law has been shouldering
all the coal mine's worrying matters.
Are you a mute, a mute?
Why are you always making these
hand-signals when you are not a mute?
Do you have so much things to talk to
your dad that you have to keep me in the dark?
Right, you rascal.
Are you still going to go that eatery?
How can you put your mom aside
and pull other people's skirt?
I like that Ahjumma.
What's there to like about her, rascal?
She tells me things that happened a long time ago
and gives me lots of delicious things.
And she even teaches me how to do my homework.
What?
Where are you going when you haven't
even finished your breakfast, rascal?!
Oh my, you really have taught him well.
Letting the outside woman find
her way here right in front of the child.
And still meddle in other people's business
when you don't even know your limits.
Please, I beg you to manage your own
family first. Your family, I beg you.
Hey, are you ignoring me?
Then why don't you just get into a coal mining
accident since you have nothing better to do?
Let me change my fate as well when I get the large
amount of insurance money after the accident!
Is that really your wish?
That's right.
How many times do you want me
to repeat it for you to believe?
Well, you won't be saying things
that you are insincere about, right?
Yes, that's right.
The faster the better.
I'm praying it to be faster, faster..
What?
Is the stomach's baby coming out?
Unfaithful cad, unfaithful cad!
That girl, that girl...
You only made me pregnant
to chase that girl away, right?
To let that girl leave here.
Bad fella! Unfaithful cad!
I hope that you'll be giving birth to a son.
So that your father won't allow his grandson
be raised in a coal mine village.
This coal mine...
If it's the will of the workers
to have this meaningless life,
then it will also be the will of the coal
mine owners to have the same fate.
The baby can hear it, honey.
How long will I be left to rot over here?
Don't you know what is the core business
in the Tae Sang Group?
Ever since Grandfather's time,
it has been the coal business.
So how can you be the successor if you know
nothing about the mining industry?
Successor?
You mean that Father has plans
to make me the successor?
I'll do that as well if I am him.
I would get the best man who is best to his family
and train him to become my predecessor.
Yes.
Yes, Father?
How is the atmosphere there?
It's quiet for now.
I have been receiving many calls
about how we use our explosives.
Citing the reason that our Tae Sung
is the head of our country's collieries.
Do you know the meanings of these words?
It's oil shock.
Because of oil shock, the government wants
to implement plans to increase coal productions.
But they are afraid that the miners will go
on strike and cause social problems.
So you understand about it.
They plan on a thorough investigation,
so make sure that you make
a way for yourself to get out.
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.
Why?
The governmental energy rulings.
They are now planning to make a move
as they know that it'll affect our colliery's survival.
Who?
The union members.
Dad.
One, two, three, four...
You will be finishing work at four, right?
Don't come to the colliery. It's dangerous.
I want to fetch you.
Ahjumma!
Ahjumma!
Dong Chul!
Dad!
Dong Chul, do that again.
As much as the heaven and earth, I love you, Dad!
My dad is the best in the world!
I see him.
It's Lee Ki Chul, sir.
The person right in the middle,
carrying a birdcage.
What are those things in the bird cage he's carrying?
They are used to test if there are
any poisonous gas in the mines.
The birds will die first if there are
any poisonous gas leaks in the mines.
An influential figure in the workers' union.
I never thought he would be
a coward who carries a birdcage.
Why aren't you answering?
His influence is much larger than his appearance.
Then, we have to get rid of him.
What?
He is the person who is opposing the government's
mine industry Prop policy.
And also...
There's no need for person who has a bigger influence
than Shin Tae Hwan in the Tae Sung colliery.
Nurse Yoo Mi Ae.
What happened to you?
Thank you.
I sent Father over since the train station can't
function without a platform master.
Right, are you fine?
Father. Is Nurse Yoo really alright?
Anyway, I still feel that it'll be best
if we would to let her leave.
Father.
Father...
Jung Soon..!
You...
Are all of you in?
Then, we are moving.
Hey, girl! Do you wish to be killed by me?
Am I hoping for the birth of this child?
Do I have the heart to come to the hospital to give birth?
- This way, quickly.
- Let go of me, girl.
Then why didn't you give birth by yourself
instead of calling a busy person like me?
It's you guys who are giving birth because you like it,
so why must you make an unrelated person worry?
Hey, jerk! Give me my change!
I have to get back the change, girl!
- Where are you going without giving me my change?!
- Oh my, you are really.
Why are you putting the change into your pocket?
Take it all down, take it all down so that
the child's father will return it to you.
Fine, fine, just walk faster.
Push, push me from the back.
- Push harder.
- I know...
Careful! Careful!
Sir, Dong Chul really raised the birds well.
Yes.
He really believes that these
two birds will really protect me.
That's right. Our bodies are our wealth.
So all of you must take care of your health.
No matter how I think, there doesn't seem
to be any hope on this piece of land.
It's better to leave here earlier
when you are still young.
The life of drifting with the current,
no matter how much efforts you put in it.
Hyungnim, why are you saying
such discouraging words again?
Even when we have to leave, we must also
reply back in a loud voice before leaving.
Forget it.
What?
Isn't this Nurse Yoo?
Why is your face almost unrecognizable?
Are you sick?
Yes.
The baby's mother...
your name is Yang Chun Hee, right?
Yes.
How's your contraction?
Feels like he can come out any minute now...
But there isn't any movement now...
That's right.
Anyway since we don't have any money.
It's better of you to come out
so we can go home earlier.
Do you remember, Nurse Yoo?
I wanted to let you help me
with my abortion at that time.
But you stopped me by saying
something about human rights.
Not knowing if you are going to die today
or tomorrow in this coal mine village.
It's already hard to make a living.
He's dying to come out to say hello to his parents.
Stop!
Stop!
Switch off!
I have already given orders that
"Coal Mine Arirang" is a forbidden song.
Did you forget it?
If not, have I heard wrongly?
Stop!
STOP!
Stop!!!
Not any random person is allowed to touch
the "medals" on the shoulders of the miners.
No matter who it is.
It should be,
The resultant "medals" from the friction
of the harness you carry on your back.
But still...
Why am I a random person?
Thanks to the mining industry, you have rice to feed
down your throat so you should learn to be humble,
if you still wish for rice to feed down your throat!
And you cad.
A piece of wretched thing.
Samcheok, false accusation,
Gangneung, loyalty, leap month!
How dare you scurry around without my permission.
If I was to fall, then everybody here will fall as well!
Don't you know this?!
If you rub me the wrong way,
I will pierce a hole through your nose,
and tie on a bridle for you.
Your explanation of our basic
necessities in life is all wrong, sir.
The food and clothing in this coal mining
village are not bestowed by you.
But earned from the blood and sweat of the miners.
Using our lives, sacrificing our lives.
The blood and sweat of the miners,
which fattens up your intestines,
even Tae Sung group are dependent on them for survival!
If you wrongly treat the lives of
the miners like field rats,
It will be your ruin if you believe
the lives of us workers are needless!
Sir, let's go. Let us go out!
Which jerk?! Which rascal switched on the water?!
Who?!
Sir, let's go out.
They aren't even worth it to be talking to you.
Let's go, sir.
Please bear with it, Madam.
Are you crying, Dong Chul?
Dong Chul is even more courageous than Dad today.
But why are you crying?
I'm not crying.
Dad.
Yes.
Why does that person hate you so much?
Why doesn't he allow the uncles to sing as well?
Why?
Maybe because he's scared.
Scared?
Yeah.
That person's heart is like a bird's heart.
A bird's heart is a coward that only knows his own.
A coward always goes after others first
because he's scared that he might get hurt.
So he hurts others first.
Come here.
Dong Chul.
Yes.
Look at the mountain over there.
That's the Tae Baek mountain.
Can you see it clearly?
Yes.
A man with the real courage...
His heart must be able to accommodate
that Tae Baek mountain.
That is a really big mountain.
How am I to do it?
When I grow up to be as big as you,
I will go bash up those bad people.
Dong Chul.
Yeah?
A real man's heart.
Bad people, good people..
He is able to accommodate all.
- Even bad people too?
- Yes.
Then, Dad, don't you hate that Ahjussi?
This is really hard, but...
I'm putting an effort to do it.
Looks like... there are signs of Pregnancy Toxemia.
If we can't treat her in Hwang Chi,
go to Jangseong-gun.
She needs to get treatment immediately.
I apologize, Father.
I wanted to end my life by jumping off the train.
But I couldn't do it and ended up coming here instead.
There are lots of people watching around here.
Regardless of Jangseong or Gangneung,
I'll go find a hospital.
Father.
Why didn't you ask me anything at all?
It's good that you are alive.
You too.
The baby as well.
Excuse me...
Mom.
Is it a son or daughter?
Son or daughter?
Oh my, you cad.
Where did you knock your face into?
It's as crumpled as a broken metal alms bowl.
Is the baby alive?
Why? If the mother and child died,
Then you can dream of living with your first love?
Both of us are alive because we won't tolerate it.
Mom, do I have a brother or sister?
You, rascal. I won't be giving birth to daughter.
I have a brother, Dad!
Let's go and see him, Dong Chul.
Unfaithful.
He only wants to look at his child.
Excuse me...
Miss, where is Yang Chun Hee's baby?
- Yang Chun Hee's?
- Yes..
Is it really that child?
Yes, his mother is Yang Chun Hee.
Congratulations, sir.
Your wife, Miss Oh Yun Hee.
She just had a smooth delivery.
It's a healthy son.
Is that so?
Thank you very much.
Please look it's a healthy son.
You must have waited anxiously
for this day, haven't you?
Dad. I gave birth ten days
ahead of the predicted due date.
Maybe he is a quick temperamental like his father.
Yeah...
He's like his dad and me as well.
He says that he looks like you.
Yes.
When?
Tomorrow morning?
Oh my, you are coming to see
your grandson in a helicopter?
Our Shin Myung Hun's grandfather is the best.
Didn't you give him that name, Shin Myung Hun?
Yes.
It's your turn.
Yes, I'm on the line, Father.
Yes. You don't have to worry about the strike.
I'll stop it effectively.
Please believe me and leave it in my hands.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes, I got it.
What's wrong? Why are you so nervous
the moment you answered Father's call?
This is not like you.
Sir.
Listen well.
If a person's desires too much,
They will end up throwing away their own lives.
You should make use of the chance when
I'm still able to show you a little compassion.
How dare you... ignored my warnings
and came back again!
You still don't understand me by now?!
You don't know it yet?!
- I know.
- You know?!
You are... a person by the name of Shin Tae Hwan.
No, you are not a human.
You dug out a living and kicking fetus
from my stomach and killed it.
You are worst off than a beast.
A devilish murderer!
So why do you still dare to come here,
looking for a murderer when you are aware of it?
How could you?
How could you be so cruel-hearted
as to kill your own child?
My child?
Are you crazy?
In my life, that child.
No, that child does not exist in our contract.
That's only the 'seed' of our uncontrollable passion.
Stupid, muddled, unreasonable, rash.
What's this place?
How dare you come back here again!
Just take enough to feed you for the rest of your life,
It's only right for you to disappear after you have
taken enough money to last you two life-times!
Even if it's a thousand or ten thousand times,
I should have already told you
that what I wanted wasn't money.
So please just disappear.
While you're still able to keep your life,
I beg you to leave.
That's right.
Before I die...
I'll kill you first and then I'll...
End it all.
Are you crazy?!
The crazy devil is you.
Sir, what's wrong?
She finally became insane.
Come take the knife away!
Yes.
You're going to lose your life as well
if you are not going to leave immediately.
This is just what I wanted to say.
Your life is in my hands, remember that.
From now on, I will live...
to destroy Shin Tae Hwan's life and tear
his heart into a thousand and million pieces!
Disappear!
Even if I disappeared, don't you dare rest at ease.
- Forget all this.
- Don't you even forget! Just wait!
You are to wait for it even if you are to die!
Even if you're dead,
I'll dig you up from the grave!
Cut off your head and take my revenge!
My child?
Are you crazy?
In my life, that child.
No, that child does not exist in our contract.
That's only the 'seed' of our uncontrollable passion.
Is it really that child?
Yes, his mother is Yang Chun Hee.
It's already hard to make a living.
He's dying to come out to say hello to his parents.
