daddy is leaving.
you're not even saying good bye
to your daddy?
wait for me just 3 years.
I'll come back
with tons of money, okay?
Boksu..
just 3 years..
you liar!
( prison )
daddy,
eat tofu.
how do you like it?
take it easy.
don't get so serious with tofu.
gone bad?
damn!
did they give me an overdue tofu?
how could they?
where did you buy it?
what if you know it?
I'm going.
going to work now?
come home early, okay?
why did you come here this early?
you're making me feel bad for you.
I don't wanna see you here again.
if you come here again,
then I'll die..
daddy!
why?
how about swapping umbrellas?
yours is so childish.
nevermind,
I'm okay.
watch it.
( I'm just walking.. )
( under the bright street-lights.. )
( I'm just walking.. )
( beside you.. )
( I'm just walking.. )
( where do I gotta go..? )
( I don't really know.. )
( follow me.. )
( I'm holding your hand.. )
( you think I'm a little odd..? )
are you guys okay?
Yun-jung!
Yun-jung! are you okay?
you okay?
ah..
( police station )
Jung-dal!
here I'm Ko Boksu!
I missed you.
Jung-dal!
who the hell is slamming the door?
oh, you're Boksu?
hey, come here.
come here, come on!
how did you get out of jail
this early?
did you break out?
2 years already have passed.
it's time for me to get out, brother.
brother?
you called me brother?
you've become so rude.
what happened to you?
what are you talking about?
you must be crazy.
why did you come here?
I guess you know why.
do I?
you're so mean, brother!
don't call me brother..
why?
you're so weird today.
hey, come closer.
you mean,
I fabricated the proof?
yeah.
hey, hey..
you can take me to court, then.
no I won't.
I don't want to be
on the same level with you.
you really got insane.
brother,
actually,
I came here to use the telephone.
I heard that people can use telephones
or restrooms in the police station.
they can even borrow umbrellas
from police, right?
that's for small branches,
not for the big police stations like here.
hey, Junior!
why are you crying?
you missed me?
no, no, I'm with Jung-dal now.
he's still so mean at his age.
I don't really know why.
leather gloves?
he must be crazy
to wear a leather glove in summertime.
he must have got some fungus
on his hand.
oh, it's a golf glove.
golf?
no, no, he doesn't know
how to play golf, I bet.
he's just insane. that's all.
alright, get me the suits.
let's meet at the station
where Jung-dal was running after us.
right,
okay, in front of the ticket booth.
alright, see ya.
thank you for the phone, brother.
let's see more often.
I got a new umbrella!
does his umbrella have
anything to do with me?
is he stoned?
is she really gonna be okay
with the operation?
yeah.
no, it can't be that simple.
one operation can't solve all the problems.
then.. what else she gotta do?
she must be careful with foods
after the operation.
that's right.
ra-men is bad for a heart disease.
that's a good news for us.
we can eat all the ra-mens then.
bacon too!
squid too.
our everyday foods are
all crappy like that, you know.
Yun-jung could just die
because of hunger,
not because of a heart disease.
by the way,
how can they expand
Yun-jung's blood vessel?
put something like a balloon
into her vessel, and expand it.
how can they put the balloon
into her vessel?
I don't know.
what if the balloon explode?
you know what?
they put the balloon into her body..
and put air through her mouth,
and make her a balloon!
then she can't get closer
to a cactus.
hot stoves are dangerous, too.
by the way,
did the doctor use the word,
'balloon'?
'for example', he said.
how much does the operation cost?
a lot.
can her medical insurance
cover it?
it's still expensive
with insurance.
her mother has no money.
can she pay for it?
we have money in the bank,
you know.
oh!
we worked 1 year to save that money.
let's work 1 more year, then.
what about our debut album, then?
forget about it.
you care about the money so much,
don't you?
well..
did I say I care about the money?
I didn't say so..
it's natural
to care about our money..
oh, Yun-jung's mom!
how's Yun-jung?
is she okay?
yes/yes/no
I said 'yes', you know..
it's stifling..
you gained weight.
did I?
your breast is really..
am I too fat?
recently, headache comes often.
do you want weight-losing pills?
those kind of pills are all drugs!
cocaine!
no!
I know a guy
who lost weight on that pills
and runs so fast.
those pills are drugs.
I can bet on Jung-dal's fingers.
you hate Jung-dal's fingers so much.
his toes should have been cut.
now he can't even shoot a gun,
I guess.
or can he shoot by his left hand?
hey, Junior.
why do you call Jung-dal
by his first name?
he must be older than you by..
more than 20..25 years.
then, why do you call him
by his first name?
me..'cause I'm the worst
enemy of him, you know.
you call him mister,
mister bear.
no.
don't you see what I'm saying?
I told you to call him mister,
do as you're told.
no, I won't.
has he ever done any harm to you?
you haven't even been to jail,
have you?
if he wanted to,
he could've easily put you in jail, right?
you don't have to make him your enemy,
see what I'm saying?
you go to the playground first.
I'll follow you.
take the bag with you, okay?
and my umbrella, too.
you'd never know how dirty Jung-dal is!
you'd never know!
I told you to call him mister..
(korean national anthem)
mister bear.
everybody can see you're a cop.
even dogs can.
so you want to be patriotic
with your cell-phone?
you want to go to jail, huh?
I got you, baby.
what's wrong, brother?
oh, you're not as good as before..
I don't really get
what you're talking about..
what are you thinking?
you want to get humiliated
in public?
release me now.
hey,
go!
you're embarrassed to death, right?
it's you
who ain't as good as before.
what the hell you're doing?
I'm a cop,
and you're a thief.
you do look like a thief.
T-H-I-E-F!
come with me!
mom, why are you crying?
oh, my mom is so weird today..
I don't understand
why she's like this..
when you quit your job
and started music,
I beat you up so badly..
I shouldn't have done that..
and I didn't even know
you're having a heart disease..
I'm not dead yet, mom.
it's not a serious operation, mom.
what did you guys say? NGO?
actually,
it's not even an operation.
your vessels have shrunk
on 3 spots.
how can you say 'not serious'?
why do you get so sad?
hey, say something to my mom.
Yun-jung's mom,
you know balloon, right?
it's just a matter of a balloon.
what kind of balloon?
if I knew that,
I can be a doctor.
you want some ice-cream?
yeah.
mom, just go get me
some ice-cream, okay?
oh, you're the boss.
by the way,
is ice-cream okay for you?
it's okay, don't worry.
mom, take this umbrella with you.
let's go together.
how many people?
about 5.
Yun-jung..
what?
I'm so sorry for you..
so sorry because I got no money..
hey,
you smoked?
yeah.
I can smell it..
quit smoking.
see?
you guys are the cause of my disease..
why?
the second-hand smoking.
okay, I'll quit.
you're too simple-minded
to be a musician.
always okay..always yes..
Yun-jung,
I wrote a melody to your lyrics.
it's not bad..
Chun Kyung,
why?
find a new singer.
I think I gotta find a job.
I can't leave my mom like that.
she makes me feel bitter..
but..
well..but..
what?
then..
we're not gonna pay your medical fee..
what kind of girl are you?
sing that song for me.
what if I don't?
then,
we're not paying your medical fee..
you're so funny.
hey..
hey butterfly..
fly through..
your deep sadness..
enough?
you can't upset everything..
at one shot..
enough?
a dream of changing beautifully..
enough..?
this is really cool.
dry your tears and fly over..
okay?
smile for me, please..
Yun-jung,
now you're fooling me with the medical fee,
you know that?
our band..
let's make just 2 albums
in the name of our band..
if the first one became a success,
then, everything's gonna be okay..
but even when the first one fails,
let's not give it up
and give one more shot to the second album..
'cause nobody can do very well
from the start, you know..
but if..even the second album fails..
and people out there call it a garbage..
then..let's just put an end to it.
maybe I'm gonna get
too tired to continue, then.
so let's keep our dream alive
and take it easy,
and let's get lots of part-time jobs
and give all the money to your mom..
why do you give the money
to my mom?
is she a beggar?
cause your mom is..
so poor..
I'm sorry to say this..
you're too kind-hearted..
you don't have to feel
sorry for that..
why should you?
you're giving money to my mom!
rain has stopped.
can you see my mom?
she's looking into the sky.
my darling, Boksu!
Ko Boksu!
see you soon at home.
oh, I'm sorry.
same here.
isn't that album too common?
I guess you want the song, 'epitaph'..
but the album, 'red' of king crimson..
'red'..
has a much better song than 'epitaph'.
called 'starless'..
it's gonna give a thrill of
12 minutes and 18 seconds to you.
you don't have 'red'
of king crimson?
you can't find it there?
oh..then,
we don't have it.
oh..they don't have it.
you're embarrassing me..
did I sound cocky?
yes, you did.
hi, honey.
put the puppy down.
am I your dog-sitter?
is it you?
I'm sorry?
look at her clothes..
looks just like
one-set with the puppy!
what a low-level guy you are..
where did you pick up
this kind of county-style girl?
it must have been so hard
to find this type of county girl..
oh..
I'm very sorry..
she misunderstood something.
my goodness,
your cheek got red..
oh, she's so hot-tempered!
do you accept credit card?
of course.
doesn't it hurt?
no, it doesn't.
she's so scary..
I'm so sorry, girl.
hey, mister!
you forgot this!
hey!
hey,
he left his puppy..
he's so fast.
I guess he felt so embarrassed, you know.
I just couldn't catch him..
he ran so fast!
he must have been cheating on her!
take it.
no way!
it's his puppy.
what do you want me to do with it?
give it back to him.
no! I have dog-phobia.
you take it.
what if he comes back to this store?
what if he doesn't?
I think he will.
then I'll say,
'I have no idea about your puppy'!
I don't like dogs, either.
okay,
let's throw it away, then..
what are you doing now?
do I look like a joke to you?
I don't care, either!
what kind of jerks are they?
help me! help me!
I hate dogs!
here you are,
5 million won.(=$5,000)
thank you.
hey, you okay?
girl, are you okay?
you know..
it's not an emergency situation, but..
she has to take the operation
as soon as possible..
the vessels of her heart
have shrunk, so..
anything can happen at any time.
we don't have much time.
a heart disease is always dangerous.
as soon as possible, okay?
anything can happen..
doctors are always talking like that.
how could you lose the money!
I don't know what to say..
let's try to find money
in a way or another.
how?
my dad.
no.
he won't help us,
I'm quite sure..
I'm going to Busan city.
are you gonna ask
your brother for money?
yeah,
but the possibility is below 10%.
let's sell our rehearsing studio.
we can pay half the operation fee by that.
then, you're gonna have no place
to sleep in..
sleep?
I won't sleep forever, then.
did you report the stolen checks
to the police?
yes I did.
I lost the puppy, too..
why are you sleeping here?
go to your home!
oh..did you miss me a lot?
I guess you did..
what a loser..
had dinner?
no.
oh, I'm hungry..
hey,
don't change channels like that.
keep on eating!
you pig!
you got angry?
'cause I didn't give you a dinner?
yeah,
I got angry..
you pig!
how can you do this to me?
have you forgotten
how much I cared about you before?
I never asked for your care.
by the way,
where did you steal the puppy?
I bought it for you.
you wanna thank me?
if I raise that puppy to be big,
someday you'll eat it up, right?
what a genius girl!
how can you think like that?
I'm out of here.
you can have all the food then,
you pig..
leave the puppy here!
don't take it with you.
wait a second,
Hyun-ji's watching us.
it's okay.
she's not a kid any more.
you're having dinner?
just as you see.
you're so rude..
how about you?
did you already finish your dinner?
where's dinner?
dinner's on the table.
I mean,
my husband's dinner.
who's your husband?
this guy?
shut up!
get him his dinner,
now!
I'm fine.
I already had dinner..
you shut up and wait.
give him his dinner,
or you die.
there's no more dinner.
you've only made your dinner?
in this large pot?
yeah.
how come?
'cause this is our home.
tell him to go to his home
and have his dinner!
you! get out of here!
why?
you come here
and have this.
no, no.
let Hyun-ji have that.
you don't hear me?
you eat this spoon,
okay?
you can even eat your spoon, right?
hey..
I don't wanna have dinner here..
I'm so scared..
if you come here again,
I'll eat a knife.
I'm out of here..
she's so funny,
isn't she?
but she's very smart.
she's ranked number one in her school.
she's a genius.
a genius?
I noticed that, too..
I noticed that
a couple minutes ago..
bye.
stay here tonight..
by the way,
why are you behaving like
you're younger than me?
does it matter?
I heard that
you're 2 years older than me.
Hyun-ji told me that
your official age is 3 years younger
than your actual age..
you're older than me..
Hyun-ji said that?
no, that's not true.
she lied to you.
hey, ma'am.
that's a lie.
that's true.
no, no, not true.
that's true.
I'll kill you!
take it easy.
you look young.
really?
yeah.
don't lie to her.
her butt is not tight any more.
she's got old.
open the door!
open up!
I'm leaving.
alright, bye.
hey, leave the puppy here.
go back to your home.
I'm gonna follow you to your home..
don't leave Hyun-ji alone.
she'll get lonely.
what?
you don't hate Hyun-ji,
do you?
she's pretty, you know.
like me.
no, I don't think so.
but you..
have a nice body..
that's more attractive,
right?
well..
that's not always the case..
the bus has come.
I gotta go.
bye! Boksu!
I wish he stayed with me tonight.
miss him already..
daddy,
are you sleeping?
you weren't snoring,
were you?
your cigarette is still burning.
it may catch fire.
good night, daddy..
you too..
I will never..
I will never go to jail again.
thank you..
what happened to you?
you usually don't get up early,
do you?
right.
shut up and pray to your god.
yes.
when does your mom come back?
the day after tomorrow.
how do you know that?
Kyung,
join breakfast everyday.
it's very nice
to have breakfast all together.
oh, mom is missing.
there's always one person missing.
that's always the case, you know..
this kind of things
always happen at the church, too..
if one person comes..
then another person goes..
that's always the case.
you shut up.
nobody's listening to you.
you're right.
the roasted fish is very nice today.
why are you using only chopsticks?
don't mess with your rice
with your chopsticks.
you don't know how to use spoon?
don't pay too much attention to her..
I have something to tell.
to whom?
to you.
I knew it.
that's why you got up
this early..
what is it?
I'll tell you
after you finish your breakfast.
tell me now.
have your breakfast first.
it might disgust you..
I have no money.
daddy,
you said you're gonna make
your money by yourself, didn't you?
a friend of mine
has to take an operation.
but she got no money.
mind your own business.
I'll pay the money back, dad.
it's an emergency situation now.
you got so rude, huh?
I don't even want to feed you.
but your friend?
I'm not that insane
to help your friend.
daddy,
I told you before
not to hang around with beggars..
can't you spare some money
that you give away to gangsters?
I like gangsters
much more than beggars.
do you know why?
they'll do anything for money.
that's my way of life, too.
being poor doesn't always mean
they're lazy.
and doesn't always mean
they're beggars, either.
you stupid idiot,
I was really poor, too.
I told you before,
don't you remember?
I worked my ass off
to make money!
if those beggars
had worked really hard,
they must have made some money now.
it's all their fault.
bribing people..
and using gangsters..
you're so happy
with your way of life,
aren't you?
that's my ability.
that's why people always call you
a stupid rich man.
you shut up!
daddy!
please lend me some money!
help me once, please..
hey you jerk,
you don't even have your pride?
get away!
let me carry it.
I told you,
you don't have to do it!
get out of the way!
mom, where can I put this?
step aside!
get away!
put it here, mom?
no, that's not the place.
put it there.
just beside the jar.
you want me to make batter?
you don't even know
how to make it, do you?
stop saying nonsense,
on such a hot day like today.
mom, don't get angry at me.
without you,
there's nothing to get angry at.
I said I'm sorry!
if you want to help me,
then really help me!
did you have a hard time,
while I'm away?
I need more money
as Sung-ho grows up..
and people don't seem to eat
fried chickens any more.
chickens don't sell well.
somebody reported chickens are
bad for health or what?
now I'm back,
you're relieved.
take this.
how much?
5 million won.
why didn't you bring it as checks?
it's more convenient.
it's originally from checks,
but I cashed it.
what do you mean?
no, nothing.
save that money
in your bank account.
don't call me a money-follower.
you found me,
and you volunteered to help me.
I didn't ask for your help.
it's you who started it.
alright, alright..
I know you're living a hard life.
mom,
you missed me?
where have you been?
you've been to the army?
yeah.
you should have
told me about that.
I was waiting for you
to give me money.
want something to eat?
no.
then, go.
say good bye to him.
I'll come again.
how much money
do you make by this?
quite a bit.
about 100,000 won?
yeah.
it's gonna be a good
stage experience for me, too.
you already have
enough experience, don't you?
how many songs
are you gonna play today?
two songs,
which feature keyboards..
but they are separated
in the set list.
they are just cover songs.
aren't they boring to play?
but easy to play,
I like cover songs.
Ki-hong couldn't borrow
money from his brother.
anyway,
let's meet at the hospital.
Yun-jung's mom has gone to
other city to borrow money.
did you ask your father..
for money?
no, I didn't..
that's good.
it's not a good idea
to ask your father for money.
see you later.
play well!
see you.
ma'am,
have your seat
in the back of this bus.
this seat is very dangerous.
you can die instantly
if this bus crushes into something..
I'm okay.
nevermind.
I'm so old.
so it's okay to die.
well, then I'm gonna be
standing here.
why don't you start?
let's go!
you gotta pay first.
this check is all I have now..
put it in the fare box.
do you have
change for this?
you can collect your changes
from passengers.
I guess you have to stand here
all day long.
aren't you busy?
you're such a stingy man.
while your son's making tons of money.
what is Boksu doing now?
he's sleeping at home now.
when does he get up?
Boksu's not pick-pocketing any more.
oh, yeah?
then, what's he doing now?
studying.
he's studying to get into a college.
oh, yeah?
how about going to
the police academy?
he's very good at
the police stuff, you know.
that can be a choice, too.
did he say,
'I quit pick-pocketing'?
yes, he did.
but his hands will automatically
pick something, I'm quite sure.
he told me seriously,
that he never go to jail again.
your son is a creep and a loser..
while you're a perfect gentle man.
I feel pity for you..
I feel pity your dad, too.
you must have been
crushed so many times,
'cause you're such a creep..
if you make me get angry..
heaven knows what'd happen!
what is this?
I heard that
you got fungus on your hand.
that's a paste
for athlete's foot.
I used this paste on my toes.
now you can have it.
oh, is it the way
you love your son?
right..it's very common
for uneducated people..
I totally understand that.
pull over and open the door.
open the door!
I'll follow Boksu
wherever he goes..
even to hell,
know what I'm saying?
( with my hair bleached yellow.. )
( I was living like there's no tomorrow.. )
( but ever since I met you.. )
( I realized what a love is.. )
( I gave up everything to love you.. )
( but this world didn't let me
love you.. )
( my love ended so easily.. )
( just like a daydream.. )
( but I gotta find you again.. )
( wherever you may go.. )
( that's my destiny.. )
( cause you've taken away
all of my life.. )
she's dead..
Yun-jung is dead..
suddenly..
suddenly she's gone..
suddenly she's gone
just like the doctor said..
the doctor wasn't lying..
Yun-jung's mom hasn't come back yet.
she's still in other city..
( I tried to do everything for you.. )
( but the world didn't let me
do that.. )
( the world took
the last hope from me.. )
( it ended just like a daydream.. )
( it ended just like that.. )
( but I gotta find you again.. )
( 'cause you've taken away
all of my life.. )

oh, you're Boksu?
hey, come here.
come here, come on!
how did you get out of jail
this early?
did you break out?
2 years already have passed.
it's time for me to get out, brother.
brother?
you called me brother?
you've become so rude.
what happened to you?
what are you talking about?
you must be crazy.
why did you come here?
I guess you know why.
do I?
you're so mean, brother!
don't call me brother..
why?
you're so weird today.
hey, come closer.
you mean,
I fabricated the proof?
yeah.
hey, hey..
you can take me to court, then.
no I won't.
I don't want to be
on the same level with you.
you really got insane.
brother,
actually,
I came here to use the telephone.
I heard that people can use telephones
or restrooms in the police station.
they can even borrow umbrellas
from police, right?
that's for small branches,
not for the big police stations like here.
hey, Junior!
why are you crying?
you missed me?
no, no, I'm with Jung-dal now.
he's still so mean at his age.
I don't really know why.
leather gloves?
he must be crazy
to wear a leather glove in summertime.
he must have got some fungus
on his hand.
oh, it's a golf glove.
golf?
no, no, he doesn't know
how to play golf, I bet.
he's just insane. that's all.
alright, get me the suits.
let's meet at the station
where Jung-dal was running after us.
right,
okay, in front of the ticket booth.
alright, see ya.
thank you for the phone, brother.
let's see more often.
I got a new umbrella!
does his umbrella have
anything to do with me?
is he stoned?
is she really gonna be okay
with the operation?
yeah.
no, it can't be that simple.
one operation can't solve all the problems.
then.. what else she gotta do?
she must be careful with foods
after the operation.
that's right.
ra-men is bad for a heart disease.
that's a good news for us.
we can eat all the ra-mens then.
bacon too!
squid too.
our everyday foods are
all crappy like that, you know.
Yun-jung could just die
because of hunger,
not because of a heart disease.
by the way,
how can they expand
Yun-jung's blood vessel?
put something like a balloon
into her vessel, and expand it.
how can they put the balloon
into her vessel?
I don't know.
what if the balloon explode?
you know what?
they put the balloon into her body..
and put air through her mouth,
and make her a balloon!
then she can't get closer
to a cactus.
hot stoves are dangerous, too.
by the way,
did the doctor use the word,
'balloon'?
'for example', he said.
how much does the operation cost?
a lot.
can her medical insurance
cover it?
it's still expensive
with insurance.
her mother has no money.
can she pay for it?
we have money in the bank,
you know.
oh!
we worked 1 year to save that money.
let's work 1 more year, then.
what about our debut album, then?
forget about it.
you care about the money so much,
don't you?
well..
did I say I care about the money?
I didn't say so..
it's natural
to care about our money..
oh, Yun-jung's mom!
how's Yun-jung?
is she okay?
yes/yes/no
I said 'yes', you know..
it's stifling..
you gained weight.
did I?
your breast is really..
am I too fat?
recently, headache comes often.
do you want weight-losing pills?
those kind of pills are all drugs!
cocaine!
no!
I know a guy
who lost weight on that pills
and runs so fast.
those pills are drugs.
I can bet on Jung-dal's fingers.
you hate Jung-dal's fingers so much.
his toes should have been cut.
now he can't even shoot a gun,
I guess.
or can he shoot by his left hand?
hey, Junior.
why do you call Jung-dal
by his first name?
he must be older than you by..
more than 20..25 years.
then, why do you call him
by his first name?
me..'cause I'm the worst
enemy of him, you know.
you call him mister,
mister bear.
no.
don't you see what I'm saying?
I told you to call him mister,
do as you're told.
no, I won't.
has he ever done any harm to you?
you haven't even been to jail,
have you?
if he wanted to,
he could've easily put you in jail, right?
you don't have to make him your enemy,
see what I'm saying?
you go to the playground first.
I'll follow you.
take the bag with you, okay?
and my umbrella, too.
you'd never know how dirty Jung-dal is!
you'd never know!
I told you to call him mister..
(korean national anthem)
mister bear.
everybody can see you're a cop.
even dogs can.
so you want to be patriotic
with your cell-phone?
you want to go to jail, huh?
I got you, baby.
what's wrong, brother?
oh, you're not as good as before..
I don't really get
what you're talking about..
what are you thinking?
you want to get humiliated
in public?
release me now.
hey,
go!
you're embarrassed to death, right?
it's you
who ain't as good as before.
what the hell you're doing?
I'm a cop,
and you're a thief.
you do look like a thief.
T-H-I-E-F!
come with me!
mom, why are you crying?
oh, my mom is so weird today..
I don't understand
why she's like this..
when you quit your job
and started music,
I beat you up so badly..
I shouldn't have done that..
and I didn't even know
you're having a heart disease..
I'm not dead yet, mom.
it's not a serious operation, mom.
what did you guys say? NGO?
actually,
it's not even an operation.
your vessels have shrunk
on 3 spots.
how can you say 'not serious'?
why do you get so sad?
hey, say something to my mom.
Yun-jung's mom,
you know balloon, right?
it's just a matter of a balloon.
what kind of balloon?
if I knew that,
I can be a doctor.
you want some ice-cream?
yeah.
mom, just go get me
some ice-cream, okay?
oh, you're the boss.
by the way,
is ice-cream okay for you?
it's okay, don't worry.
mom, take this umbrella with you.
let's go together.
how many people?
about 5.
Yun-jung..
what?
I'm so sorry for you..
so sorry because I got no money..
hey,
you smoked?
yeah.
I can smell it..
quit smoking.
see?
you guys are the cause of my disease..
why?
the second-hand smoking.
okay, I'll quit.
you're too simple-minded
to be a musician.
always okay..always yes..
Yun-jung,
I wrote a melody to your lyrics.
it's not bad..
Chun Kyung,
why?
find a new singer.
I think I gotta find a job.
I can't leave my mom like that.
she makes me feel bitter..
but..
well..but..
what?
then..
we're not gonna pay your medical fee..
what kind of girl are you?
sing that song for me.
what if I don't?
then,
we're not paying your medical fee..
you're so funny.
hey..
hey butterfly..
fly through..
your deep sadness..
enough?
you can't upset everything..
at one shot..
enough?
a dream of changing beautifully..
enough..?
this is really cool.
dry your tears and fly over..
okay?
smile for me, please..
Yun-jung,
now you're fooling me with the medical fee,
you know that?
our band..
let's make just 2 albums
in the name of our band..
if the first one became a success,
then, everything's gonna be okay..
but even when the first one fails,
let's not give it up
and give one more shot to the second album..
'cause nobody can do very well
from the start, you know..
but if..even the second album fails..
and people out there call it a garbage..
then..let's just put an end to it.
maybe I'm gonna get
too tired to continue, then.
so let's keep our dream alive
and take it easy,
and let's get lots of part-time jobs
and give all the money to your mom..
why do you give the money
to my mom?
is she a beggar?
cause your mom is..
so poor..
I'm sorry to say this..
you're too kind-hearted..
you don't have to feel
sorry for that..
why should you?
you're giving money to my mom!
rain has stopped.
can you see my mom?
she's looking into the sky.
my darling, Boksu!
Ko Boksu!
see you soon at home.
oh, I'm sorry.
same here.
isn't that album too common?
I guess you want the song, 'epitaph'..
but the album, 'red' of king crimson..
'red'..
has a much better song than 'epitaph'.
called 'starless'..
it's gonna give a thrill of
12 minutes and 18 seconds to you.
you don't have 'red'
of king crimson?
you can't find it there?
oh..then,
we don't have it.
oh..they don't have it.
you're embarrassing me..
did I sound cocky?
yes, you did.
hi, honey.
put the puppy down.
am I your dog-sitter?
is it you?
I'm sorry?
look at her clothes..
looks just like
one-set with the puppy!
what a low-level guy you are..
where did you pick up
this kind of county-style girl?
it must have been so hard
to find this type of county girl..
oh..
I'm very sorry..
she misunderstood something.
my goodness,
your cheek got red..
oh, she's so hot-tempered!
do you accept credit card?
of course.
doesn't it hurt?
no, it doesn't.
she's so scary..
I'm so sorry, girl.
hey, mister!
you forgot this!
hey!
hey,
he left his puppy..
he's so fast.
I guess he felt so embarrassed, you know.
I just couldn't catch him..
he ran so fast!
he must have been cheating on her!
take it.
no way!
it's his puppy.
what do you want me to do with it?
give it back to him.
no! I have dog-phobia.
you take it.
what if he comes back to this store?
what if he doesn't?
I think he will.
then I'll say,
'I have no idea about your puppy'!
I don't like dogs, either.
okay,
let's throw it away, then..
what are you doing now?
do I look like a joke to you?
I don't care, either!
what kind of jerks are they?
help me! help me!
I hate dogs!
here you are,
5 million won.(=$5,000)
thank you.
hey, you okay?
girl, are you okay?
you know..
it's not an emergency situation, but..
she has to take the operation
as soon as possible..
the vessels of her heart
have shrunk, so..
anything can happen at any time.
we don't have much time.
a heart disease is always dangerous.
as soon as possible, okay?
anything can happen..
doctors are always talking like that.
how could you lose the money!
I don't know what to say..
let's try to find money
in a way or another.
how?
my dad.
no.
he won't help us,
I'm quite sure..
I'm going to Busan city.
are you gonna ask
your brother for money?
yeah,
but the possibility is below 10%.
let's sell our rehearsing studio.
we can pay half the operation fee by that.
then, you're gonna have no place
to sleep in..
sleep?
I won't sleep forever, then.
did you report the stolen checks
to the police?
yes I did.
I lost the puppy, too..
why are you sleeping here?
go to your home!
oh..did you miss me a lot?
I guess you did..
what a loser..
had dinner?
no.
oh, I'm hungry..
hey,
don't change channels like that.
keep on eating!
you pig!
you got angry?
'cause I didn't give you a dinner?
yeah,
I got angry..
you pig!
how can you do this to me?
have you forgotten
how much I cared about you before?
I never asked for your care.
by the way,
where did you steal the puppy?
I bought it for you.
you wanna thank me?
if I raise that puppy to be big,
someday you'll eat it up, right?
what a genius girl!
how can you think like that?
I'm out of here.
you can have all the food then,
you pig..
leave the puppy here!
don't take it with you.
wait a second,
Hyun-ji's watching us.
it's okay.
she's not a kid any more.
you're having dinner?
just as you see.
you're so rude..
how about you?
did you already finish your dinner?
where's dinner?
dinner's on the table.
I mean,
my husband's dinner.
who's your husband?
this guy?
shut up!
get him his dinner,
now!
I'm fine.
I already had dinner..
you shut up and wait.
give him his dinner,
or you die.
there's no more dinner.
you've only made your dinner?
in this large pot?
yeah.
how come?
'cause this is our home.
tell him to go to his home
and have his dinner!
you! get out of here!
why?
you come here
and have this.
no, no.
let Hyun-ji have that.
you don't hear me?
you eat this spoon,
okay?
you can even eat your spoon, right?
hey..
I don't wanna have dinner here..
I'm so scared..
if you come here again,
I'll eat a knife.
I'm out of here..
she's so funny,
isn't she?
but she's very smart.
she's ranked number one in her school.
she's a genius.
a genius?
I noticed that, too..
I noticed that
a couple minutes ago..
bye.
stay here tonight..
by the way,
why are you behaving like
you're younger than me?
does it matter?
I heard that
you're 2 years older than me.
Hyun-ji told me that
your official age is 3 years younger
than your actual age..
you're older than me..
Hyun-ji said that?
no, that's not true.
she lied to you.
hey, ma'am.
that's a lie.
that's true.
no, no, not true.
that's true.
I'll kill you!
take it easy.
you look young.
really?
yeah.
don't lie to her.
her butt is not tight any more.
she's got old.
open the door!
open up!
I'm leaving.
alright, bye.
hey, leave the puppy here.
go back to your home.
I'm gonna follow you to your home..
don't leave Hyun-ji alone.
she'll get lonely.
what?
you don't hate Hyun-ji,
do you?
she's pretty, you know.
like me.
no, I don't think so.
but you..
have a nice body..
that's more attractive,
right?
well..
that's not always the case..
the bus has come.
I gotta go.
bye! Boksu!
I wish he stayed with me tonight.
miss him already..
daddy,
are you sleeping?
you weren't snoring,
were you?
your cigarette is still burning.
it may catch fire.
good night, daddy..
you too..
I will never..
I will never go to jail again.
thank you..
what happened to you?
you usually don't get up early,
do you?
right.
shut up and pray to your god.
yes.
when does your mom come back?
the day after tomorrow.
how do you know that?
Kyung,
join breakfast everyday.
it's very nice
to have breakfast all together.
oh, mom is missing.
there's always one person missing.
that's always the case, you know..
this kind of things
always happen at the church, too..
if one person comes..
then another person goes..
that's always the case.
you shut up.
nobody's listening to you.
you're right.
the roasted fish is very nice today.
why are you using only chopsticks?
don't mess with your rice
with your chopsticks.
you don't know how to use spoon?
don't pay too much attention to her..
I have something to tell.
to whom?
to you.
I knew it.
that's why you got up
this early..
what is it?
I'll tell you
after you finish your breakfast.
tell me now.
have your breakfast first.
it might disgust you..
I have no money.
daddy,
you said you're gonna make
your money by yourself, didn't you?
a friend of mine
has to take an operation.
but she got no money.
mind your own business.
I'll pay the money back, dad.
it's an emergency situation now.
you got so rude, huh?
I don't even want to feed you.
but your friend?
I'm not that insane
to help your friend.
daddy,
I told you before
not to hang around with beggars..
can't you spare some money
that you give away to gangsters?
I like gangsters
much more than beggars.
do you know why?
they'll do anything for money.
that's my way of life, too.
being poor doesn't always mean
they're lazy.
and doesn't always mean
they're beggars, either.
you stupid idiot,
I was really poor, too.
I told you before,
don't you remember?
I worked my ass off
to make money!
if those beggars
had worked really hard,
they must have made some money now.
it's all their fault.
bribing people..
and using gangsters..
you're so happy
with your way of life,
aren't you?
that's my ability.
that's why people always call you
a stupid rich man.
you shut up!
daddy!
please lend me some money!
help me once, please..
hey you jerk,
you don't even have your pride?
get away!
let me carry it.
I told you,
you don't have to do it!
get out of the way!
mom, where can I put this?
step aside!
get away!
put it here, mom?
no, that's not the place.
put it there.
just beside the jar.
you want me to make batter?
you don't even know
how to make it, do you?
stop saying nonsense,
on such a hot day like today.
mom, don't get angry at me.
without you,
there's nothing to get angry at.
I said I'm sorry!
if you want to help me,
then really help me!
did you have a hard time,
while I'm away?
I need more money
as Sung-ho grows up..
and people don't seem to eat
fried chickens any more.
chickens don't sell well.
somebody reported chickens are
bad for health or what?
now I'm back,
you're relieved.
take this.
how much?
5 million won.
why didn't you bring it as checks?
it's more convenient.
it's originally from checks,
but I cashed it.
what do you mean?
no, nothing.
save that money
in your bank account.
don't call me a money-follower.
you found me,
and you volunteered to help me.
I didn't ask for your help.
it's you who started it.
alright, alright..
I know you're living a hard life.
mom,
you missed me?
where have you been?
you've been to the army?
yeah.
you should have
told me about that.
I was waiting for you
to give me money.
want something to eat?
no.
then, go.
say good bye to him.
I'll come again.
how much money
do you make by this?
quite a bit.
about 100,000 won?
yeah.
it's gonna be a good
stage experience for me, too.
you already have
enough experience, don't you?
how many songs
are you gonna play today?
two songs,
which feature keyboards..
but they are separated
in the set list.
they are just cover songs.
aren't they boring to play?
but easy to play,
I like cover songs.
Ki-hong couldn't borrow
money from his brother.
anyway,
let's meet at the hospital.
Yun-jung's mom has gone to
other city to borrow money.
did you ask your father..
for money?
no, I didn't..
that's good.
it's not a good idea
to ask your father for money.
see you later.
play well!
see you.
ma'am,
have your seat
in the back of this bus.
this seat is very dangerous.
you can die instantly
if this bus crushes into something..
I'm okay.
nevermind.
I'm so old.
so it's okay to die.
well, then I'm gonna be
standing here.
why don't you start?
let's go!
you gotta pay first.
this check is all I have now..
put it in the fare box.
do you have
change for this?
you can collect your changes
from passengers.
I guess you have to stand here
all day long.
aren't you busy?
you're such a stingy man.
while your son's making tons of money.
what is Boksu doing now?
he's sleeping at home now.
when does he get up?
Boksu's not pick-pocketing any more.
oh, yeah?
then, what's he doing now?
studying.
he's studying to get into a college.
oh, yeah?
how about going to
the police academy?
he's very good at
the police stuff, you know.
that can be a choice, too.
did he say,
'I quit pick-pocketing'?
yes, he did.
but his hands will automatically
pick something, I'm quite sure.
he told me seriously,
that he never go to jail again.
your son is a creep and a loser..
while you're a perfect gentle man.
I feel pity for you..
I feel pity your dad, too.
you must have been
crushed so many times,
'cause you're such a creep..
if you make me get angry..
heaven knows what'd happen!
what is this?
I heard that
you got fungus on your hand.
that's a paste
for athlete's foot.
I used this paste on my toes.
now you can have it.
oh, is it the way
you love your son?
right..it's very common
for uneducated people..
I totally understand that.
pull over and open the door.
open the door!
I'll follow Boksu
wherever he goes..
even to hell,
know what I'm saying?
( with my hair bleached yellow.. )
( I was living like there's no tomorrow.. )
( but ever since I met you.. )
( I realized what a love is.. )
( I gave up everything to love you.. )
( but this world didn't let me
love you.. )
( my love ended so easily.. )
( just like a daydream.. )
( but I gotta find you again.. )
( wherever you may go.. )
( that's my destiny.. )
( cause you've taken away
all of my life.. )
she's dead..
Yun-jung is dead..
suddenly..
suddenly she's gone..
suddenly she's gone
just like the doctor said..
the doctor wasn't lying..
Yun-jung's mom hasn't come back yet.
she's still in other city..
( I tried to do everything for you.. )
( but the world didn't let me
do that.. )
( the world took
the last hope from me.. )
( it ended just like a daydream.. )
( it ended just like that.. )
( but I gotta find you again.. )
( 'cause you've taken away
all of my life.. )
