Kyung,
we've finally found each other..
you okay?
yeah..
you okay, too?
yeah, I had a good sleep.
let's stop running.
I'm okay.
I'm not okay.
I'm okay.
I'm tired.
oh..
water is so dirty!
isn't it?
what are you..
thinking about so deeply?
let me think about it together with you!
water is..
so dirty..
I thought..
you're a thoughtful person.
I'm not.
we should've gone to Che-ju island..
it's dirty here.
Mirae seems to be wiser than her.
should I have chosen Mirae?
now, where do you want to go?
where?
where..
you guide me.
you wanted me to come here.
I didn't want you to come here.
you just came here.
what are you saying?
I just..
wanted to get on the plane.
that's all.
you're so mean..
I'm a stranger here, too.
I know very little about this town.
oh..
there's a nice bag.
who lost this bag?
what is this?
what's this?
oh,
what is this?
it's pretty..
isn't it pretty?
oh, it's so heavy.
let me take it for you.
oh, it's heavy.
why did I take it?
was I cute?
you must have some problem
in your brain..
wasn't I cute?
Kyung,
- wasn't I?
- you were, you were..
really?
if you are not having sashimi
in a harbor city,
what else do you want to eat?
I just can't eat this..
then, what do you want?
just beef..or pork..
you're always eating them in Seoul, you know.
I have an allergy to raw fishes.
how can you..
have an allergy..to raw fishes?
you're so picky.
okay, I'll show you.
you'll see what happens
if I have it.
see what happens..
on my face, arms..
don't say 'you're disgusting'.
you'll regret it!
okay, let's see what happens.
you're pretty, so..
even when you get
some rashes on your skin,
you'll look queerly pretty.
I won't regret, you know.
okay, you'll see.
chew it.
oh, I'm regretting it now..
Boksu!
does it hurt?
now..
I can't run any more..
doesn't it hurt?
no, but..
I can't run..
stay here.
are you gonna buy some medicine for me?
no, you don't have to..
no, I'll get the bag.
forget it!
it was just for fun.
we're just trying to find the owner for fun.
forget about it!
I'll be back soon.
what's..
what's that girl doing?
Kyung,
you're so weird.
when we had decided to find the owner,
we gotta do it right.
you wanna stop it now?
we shouldn't have picked up this bag, then.
we did our best!
forget about it.
it's none of your business.
now you're overreacting!
- it doesn't seem to be none of my business..
- it definitely isn't your business!
I'm disappointed by you.
about what?
I don't really know, but..
I got disappointed.
oh..
I don't get
what you're talking about..
you're overreacting now.
no, I'm not. I'm just trying to
give it back to the owner.
now you're risking your life, aren't you?
risking my life? no!
it's you who're overreacting!
just don't overreact!
yes, a trouble comes like this..
you guys are so loud..
nothing to steal in this bag!
hey man!
what?
how come you don't speak
with a southern accent?
'cause I'm from Seoul.
I'm on vacation here.
I took your bag just for fun,
but it has nothing in it.
don't fight.
get along well.
you heard him?
nothing to steal in it.
while I was watching
the pictures inside this bag,
I put you
on the memory of these photos.
I placed you
on the streets of foreign countries
in my fantasy.
after I put you
on the memories of these pretty pictures,
I felt grateful for the streets..
and the photographer.
maybe this bag is
just nothing for other people,
but something for me..
and for the owner.
you're really..
oh..I think
I gotta say something cool, too..
shit!
I'm so touched by you..
you're driving me crazy..
you wanna have some pork belly? or beef?
pork belly..
what are you doing?
I'm not dead.
you get some sleep, too.
I won't wake you up this time.
when I feel like dying,
I'll tell you, okay?
when I'm saying nothing,
I'm not dying.
excuse me..
how many stops left
before we get to Jook-byun?
here's Jook-byun.
Boksu,
Boksu, we got Jook-byun.
driver! we're getting off!
my bag!
do you need these cosmetics?
you don't do make-up on you face, do you?
I do.
you do?
I put a light make-up on my face.
maybe you can't notice it.
don't waste your effort on your face!
I can't even notice.
I wanted to cover my freckles.
oh!
that's why..
I can't see your freckles today!
come with me.
okay,
let me put a make-up on your face.
we're gonna see the owner of this bag.
you gotta look pretty to him.
I'll put a make-up on your face, too.
oh, it's difficult.
this part first..
and this part..
oh, that helps!
okay, one more time.
I think it's enough.
let me finish this.
( film developing )
- is that the owner's name?
- yes.
he's a photographer,
I guessed it right.
what? you don't like ra-men?
no! I don't!
you're always saying 'no'!
what are you saying?
you threw a pot to me?
you hit me with a pan.
you call it 'hit'?
you hit me harder than that!
you hit me..
like this!
what are you doing?
doesn't it hurt?
it hurts.
so what?
anyway, I don't want ra-men.
I do.
it's me who's making money.
make dinner!
no.
stop it!
you hit this guy's head.
his head's gonna explode out!
oh, my brain cells are..
dancing on the tumor..
you heard him?
don't fight.
we're scared..
let's stop it.
we have guests.
you want to read comic books?
comic books?
have a seat, please.
we have something to ask you about.
well..what happened to your legs?
it's from a polio.
what? you got any problem with this?
no..
I mean, I'm worried about me..
you want to get a polio?
how could you think
I..'want' to get it?
you're very funny.
anyway,
tell me what you want to know.
are you..Kwon Young-ho?
no, I'm not.
but I saw the name on the plate.
oh, it's the photographer.
we moved into this place 1 month ago.
hey, you have the address of him?
it's in the drawer.
oh, here it is.
thank you.
honey, let's make a peace.
how about making a compromise?
let's eat the kimchi stew for dinner.
you're still angry?
yes, I am.
feel better now?
you really don't like ra-men.
I don't.
but noodles are okay.
okay, I see.
let's have dinner together.
he seems to be living off his wife.
no, he's a comic artist.
no, I'm just copying japanese comics.
you have your own comics,
don't you?
it's not even published yet.
so I'm not a comic artist.
shut up!
your comic books are great!
I'm quite sure about it.
you have any problem with that?
no.
I'm just happy as can be
as long as you like my comics.
I envy them.
like this?
are you full?
yes, I'm full.
I could just die.
we had lunch three times.
ashimi, pork belly..
and a kimchi stew this time.
stay here.
I'll go get some gums.
okay.
it's strange.
I'm sure I came this way..
it must be around here..
why isn't she coming?
hey, would you stop playing it for me?
oh, I don't like it..
stop it, please..
keep this bag for me.
okay?
I'll be back soon.
I said,
come close to the harmonica sound.
where's the sound coming from?
I..I can't find it, either!
why did she leave for just a gum?
oh!
Boksu!
oh..now I found you.
Kyu..Kyung..
it's..
it's very hard for us to meet..
right..
it has been very hard..
for us to find each other.
oh..it's hot.
it's like..a road to heaven!
a flower road to heaven?
have you ever been there?
don't mention about heaven!
it's so scary to hear that..
she's..so sensitive.
is it a road to hell, then?
excuse me..
excuse me!
- granpa..
- why?
why, why?
who are you?
let me ask you something!
don't yell at me.
you're speaking too loud!
do you happen to know Kwon Young-ho?
who's he?
I heard that he moved into this place..
when?
1 month ago?
oh, I remember the guy..
he was so sharp-tempered.
he left after 10 days.
saying it's boring here.
but life itself is boring, you know.
he's gone to somewhere.
you don't have his new address?
I don't..why?
we need to find him..
why?
- excuse me!
- why?
is this machine yours?
yes, that's mine.
you want to see me on that?
no..no.
it's quite different inside this village.
that's why we can't see the reality
from a distance.
if you wanna see it,
you gotta come close to it.
this village looked so antique from afar,
but now we know it's just nothing!
well, some kind of reality is visible
only when you're seeing it from afar.
when you're close to it,
you can't see how pretty those straw-roofs are.
all you can see is the satellite dish on the roof.
but when you're seeing it from a distance,
you know how pretty those roofs are.
okay, you're so smart.
and I know nothing!
- am I so smart?
- yes!
thanks.
Kyung,
do you think
I'm too close to my daddy now?
is that why I still hate him so much?
maybe.
well, but..
I wanna keep him close to me.
when he was close to me,
he looked so cute.
when your dad is far from you,
he looks so brutal,
and so foolish.
my daddy's not like that.
nobody can't be only warm-and-wise.
everyone has the brutal-and-foolish side in them.
don't question why daddy was like that,
you better question why love is like that.
what are you doing now?
I'm performing a funeral.
oh, it's scary!
didn't you say
it's a road to heaven?
right.
you're making a grave now?
you got it.
oh..please!
let me have some sleep!
I want to find Kwon Young-ho..
I don't want to find him.
I want some sleep!
you were touched by me.
don't you remember?
yeah..I was touched..
but that feeling's already gone now.
I don't want to see you
close your eyes.
then, you want me to open my eyes
all the time?
have some sleep while I'm away.
stop saying nonsense.
I..don't wanna be here in 'heaven'.
I wanna go back to the 'dirty world'..
where in the dirty world?
I want to find Kwon Young-ho.
it feels like
he must have something for us.
- he's been around the world, so..
- something for us? I don't think so.
I'm a patient, you know.
please treat me humanely..
you gotta learn from Mirae.
Kyung..
miss Chun Kyung!
miss Chun Kyung..
I don't care..
make your eyes like this..
miss Chun Kyung..
miss Chun Kyung!
nevermind!
- Mirae,
- ( you guys okay there? )
- Mirae,
- ( what? )
have you fed the fishes?
( I feed them once a day.
don't worry about fishes and
pay more attention to Boksu. )
when exactly did you feed them?
( whenever I have some free time.. )
feed them regularly!
you're having your meals regularly.
why not the fishes?
fishes can get indigestion!
( oh my..you got crazy! )
no! it's you who's crazy!
was it Mirae?
yes.
I feel better now.
let's go..
to find Kwon Young-ho.
oh, everything's against my will..
that's the way it goes..
oh!
I stayed here last night.
is that right?
oh, this town is so small..
alright, we can ask the landlady about him.
excuse me!
ma'am Jung-seob!
I'm back.
who are you?
I stayed here last night, you know.
did you?
I can't remember you..
can't you..
can't you remember me?
I stayed last night..
I have a so short memory..
you want to stay tonight again?
- no, I got something to ask..
- I don't know.
I know nothing,
even if you ask me..
don't you know about a guy
who moved into this town
about 15 days ago?
- a guy?
- yes.
a very strange guy is..
hanging around this town..
he's in the house over there.
no fence, no door..
is Kwon Young-ho here?
Mr.Kwon Young-ho,
are you sleeping?
let's just put the bag here
and leave.
no.
I want to see him.
what if he's ugly?
you might get disappointed.
am I doing a blind-date now?
you're ugly, too.
how can you say that to..
a guy who's gonna die soon?
hold this flower.
why did you bring it here?
how did you find me?
you lost it, right?
no, I just threw it away.
our effort was in vain.
let's go, Kyung.
it must have cost several years
to take these pictures.
why did you just throw it away?
'cause I just wanted to.
come on!
please answer her question.
she's so curious about it.
why did you get curious about it?
it has nothing to do with you.
cause..
it seems to be expensive!
the machine..
and films..
right..
it cost me pretty much.
follow me.
I'll let you guys see these pictures.
why is he taking us to a church?
I feel guilt here..
I guess you do.
Kyung,
you've lost so many points
in this trip!
so have you!
all five continents are in it.
what do you want to see first?
uh..Venice!
oh, Italy.
is Venice..
in Italy?
yeah.
you fool.
there were much better places than these..
where was the best?
well, it depends on person..
why did you throw it away?
lots of people have never
been to overseas, you know.
while I was taking pictures of
other people's lives..
I hadn't had a chance
to look into my own.
uh?
while I was taking
these kind of pictures,
my wife just got mad
and commit a suicide.
scary..isn't it?
yeah..
you didn't have to tell us the story..
you didn't have to..
to a photographer like me..
you two..
look very happy
and go well with these pictures.
but these are just misery to me,
you know..
so,
I just wanted to show it to you.
alright, then..
it's at your disposal.
good bye..
sir..
can you guess..
why your wife commit a suicide?
was it because you made her lonely?
or she just didn't want to be alone?
there's no way
I can figure it out.
and I don't try to figure it out..
any more..
'cause I don't think I can..
only one question is..
left to me..
what do I really want in my life?
seems like..
my wife's gone out of my life
to give me the chance..
to think about it..
in my life..
now I'm trying to find it..
what did your dad..
leave to you?
a bank account..
that's a good thing.
that guy seems to be..
from Seoul.
he doesn't speak with an accent.
from a distance,
those lights look pretty..
yes.
but when you get closer to it,
you can see dirty realities..
I like dirty things.
I have enough money
from my dad's account..
so..
I wanted to make you sleep
in an expensive room.
they said, 'no vacant room'.
I don't like hotels very much.
maybe it's because my dad is a hotel owner.
Kyung..
my head is aching..
give me an injection.
sure.
wait a second..
are they staying here tonight?
they went there,
after seeing 'no vacant room' sign.
oh, kids..
Kyung..
this injection turns me on..
it's not a drug..
get up, Boksu.
do you have a cancer?
I know about that injection.
my kid is suffering from a leukemia.
do you have a leukemia, too?
no, I have a brain tumor..
we have one room left.
please come in.
- we have one suite left, right?
- yes, sir.
please, come in.
it's okay to have just one glass of wine,
isn't it?
yes..
you and me..
let's do our best.
I saw you giving him an injection.
that was so beautiful..
you're a real beautiful person.
oh..
he should have given us 2 rooms..
I'm sure you're scared now..
to be in a closed space with a guy..
I..have been with a guy..
in one room.
oh..have you?
right, you said that before..
but..
never been with a patient, right?
what is he saying..
suddenly, I got nervous..
suddenly..
I'm nervous..
Boksu,
yes?
how about just..
getting married now?
wh..what are you saying..?
you're making me feel embarrassed..
n..now?
you want to..
get married now?
no..
it's you who said 'now'..
ah..you didn't..uh..
well..why are you..
talking about marriage now?
you're making me nervous..
I got..
nervous, too..
anyway..drink this wine and..
let's..just take it easy..and..
get some sleep..if you like..
or have some fun..
okay?
oh..
this room is so big..
oh..
my dad's hotel is just a motel
compared to this one..
cheers!
slow down.
let's get drunk fast!
only then we can get loose.
don't drink more than one glass.
it's bad for your brain.
I can't get drunk with this.
I need soju.
there're some liquors..
you said you have enough money, right?
I'll drink them.
oh, I should take this home.
she wandered around so much today..
and she's sleeping
without washing her face..
what a dirty girl..
bathroom is really nice here..
but she didn't even use it..
and she's just sleeping now..
getting married?
all of a sudden?
if you wanted to tempt me..
you gotta do it right..
good night..
Kyung..
I'm also..
putting you into these photos..
and into my eyes..
and into my brain..
just beside the tumor..
hey, Kyung..
clouds are just beneath this plane..
oh..
I saw that three times..
I couldn't see this
'cause I took the plane at night.
then,
you must have seen the stars..
no, I couldn't.
- excuse me,
- yes?
any medicine for a drunk?
I'll look for it.
medicine can't cure it.
you gotta have a hot soup.
how does it feel
to be over the clouds?
it feels like I'm in the sky land.
oh, that's just dumb!
I feel like I've become a god.
you got a great ambition.
Boksu,
yeah?
let's get..
an operation.
what kind of operation for us?
on brain tumor.
that's for me,
not for you.
you get an operation, then,
by the money your dad left to you.
okay?
no, I'm scared..
what's so scary about the operation?
before I met you..
I was scared of dying..
but now I'm with you..
I'm scared of
not being a 'man' any more..
even if I survived
after the operation..
I'm scared of
not being a 'man' any more..
that's more scary than dying..
what's wrong with you?
doesn't it feel weird?
your nose, ears..head..
yes, it feels weird..
oh yeah?
I thought only me feeling weird..
you seem to have a brain tumor, too.
I guess I'm infected by you.
oh, my life is done, too!
is it okay now?
oh, my nose wax.
were you pregnant, Kyung?
when did you give birth
to all these fishes?
what have you done
while I was not watching you?
get out of the way.
daddy..
good bye..
don't..
drag me down any more..
I'm busy, you know.
sorry for..
hating you..
you really got crazy?
what are you saying?
you even made me feed your fishes!
what are you doing now?
Boksu praised you.
did he said..
he likes me?
what are you talking about?
stop dreaming!
I'll marry Boksu as soon as possible.
I can see a happiness in you.
Boksu must be happy, too.
hey!
I can't divorce.
please calm down.
I'm never gonna hang out
with another woman any more.
honey,
yeah.
I..didn't get angry about you.
let's go home then.
if I had been angry,
I wouldn't have disappeared.
I can put down my anger very well,
you know.
it was not because
I got angry about you.
it's like..
for the first time in my life,
I did what I want to do..
even when you're not with another woman.
we don't spend time together,
we don't share nothing to do together.
that's my answer..
we both..
just needed each other
as a husband and a wife..
I needed your money,
and you needed me as an obedient wife.
but..
I don't want to do it any more.
now I've become myself..
a wise woman..
I can pray to god as myself now.
now I've become the 'strong' person
whom you always wanted me to be.
I won't divorce.
I don't like it!
I will.
I like it.
I don't want to make dinner
for others any more.
I'll make dinner for myself.
honey..
you're so slow, run fast!
get out of here,
what are you doing?
I'm doing my exercise.
it's none of your business.
what are you doing here, mister?
oh..hi,
I'm Sung-ho's brother..
I have something to tell him..
you can talk to him at your home.
- oh, I don't live with him.
- why?
- ah, that's my private life.
- alright.
Sung-ho!
you said
you're not my brother any more!
right, I'm not your brother!
now I'm your granpa!
nonsense!
then..I'm your sister!
are you a woman?
then..
you can call me anything,
okay?
except 'mom'.
let's..be friends, then.
just call my name.
no, I can't..
brother, sister, Boksu..
they're all the same to me.
they all mean..'me'!
say 'Boksu'!
you're smiling.
call my name.
I'll do the same to you.
brother..
Sung-ho brother.
it's weird.
sister.
Sung-ho sister.
hey, Boksu!
who's your mommy?
you're so rude!
- Sung-ho,
- yes?
Ko Boksu!
will you accept me
as your brother again?
yes, brother!
thank you.
Sung-ho.
thank you.
- take..this..
- thanks.
Boksu,
thank you so much.
the owner doesn't know about this.
keep it secret, okay?
I see, I see..
- take some of this.
- thanks.
bye!
yes..thank you so much..
you guys are ready?
let's go!
how come you're here?
Kyung told me that
she's gonna record an album.
it's from me, you know.
I knew you'd be like this..
when I heard about it,
I thought you're a man of ability, but..
now you got cocky about this..
you're not cool, you know.
I just said the fact.
you're so funny.
let's call it a day.
good job.
- oh, Mr.Han, thank you for coming.
- my pleasure.
aren't you guys hungry?
take this.
take this please.
- pizza and sushi..
- milk and bread..
you're a man of good sense!
you gotta learn from him.
I don't like pizza!
I can't eat sushi, either.
looks delicious!
Boksu, open this for me.
I love to drink milk opened by you.
oh..
I feel sick!
my gosh..
Boksu..
give me a break,
I'm not sure about it yet..
you decided to take an operation.
the sooner the better!
and you got money, too.
I'm..not sure about
whether to take it or not..
I'm..so happy with you now..
I don't want to ruin it..
when you're not sure
about the result,
you should try it first.
that's the right way to go.
because..
taking an operation is a challenge,
not a give-up.
I think a challenge is
the starting point of life.
let's me think..
some more about it..
you're afraid of losing
your 'man' in yourself?
yes..
I'll think about it.
Kyung,
these days,
you're always taking me home.
feels like I've become a girl.
good bye.
I'm staying here tonight.
what?
now I'm okay to be alone.
from today,
I'm staying here.
until you get an operation,
I'll stand by you just like a wife.
there's one more room, but..
no,
I'm sleeping with you.
as a man and a woman.
you don't have to worry about
losing your 'man' inside you.
I'm living with you
as a man and a woman..
until you get an operation.
Kyung,
yes,
are you giving a service to me?
you mean,
I have to taste a girl..
before I become a fool
after the operation?
Boksu..
you're a very weird girl..
suddenly I got sick of you..

Kyung,
we've finally found each other..
you okay?
yeah..
you okay, too?
yeah, I had a good sleep.
let's stop running.
I'm okay.
I'm not okay.
I'm okay.
I'm tired.
oh..
water is so dirty!
isn't it?
what are you..
thinking about so deeply?
let me think about it together with you!
water is..
so dirty..
I thought..
you're a thoughtful person.
I'm not.
we should've gone to Che-ju island..
it's dirty here.
Mirae seems to be wiser than her.
should I have chosen Mirae?
now, where do you want to go?
where?
where..
you guide me.
you wanted me to come here.
I didn't want you to come here.
you just came here.
what are you saying?
I just..
wanted to get on the plane.
that's all.
you're so mean..
I'm a stranger here, too.
I know very little about this town.
oh..
there's a nice bag.
who lost this bag?
what is this?
what's this?
oh,
what is this?
it's pretty..
isn't it pretty?
oh, it's so heavy.
let me take it for you.
oh, it's heavy.
why did I take it?
was I cute?
you must have some problem
in your brain..
wasn't I cute?
Kyung,
- wasn't I?
- you were, you were..
really?
if you are not having sashimi
in a harbor city,
what else do you want to eat?
I just can't eat this..
then, what do you want?
just beef..or pork..
you're always eating them in Seoul, you know.
I have an allergy to raw fishes.
how can you..
have an allergy..to raw fishes?
you're so picky.
okay, I'll show you.
you'll see what happens
if I have it.
see what happens..
on my face, arms..
don't say 'you're disgusting'.
you'll regret it!
okay, let's see what happens.
you're pretty, so..
even when you get
some rashes on your skin,
you'll look queerly pretty.
I won't regret, you know.
okay, you'll see.
chew it.
oh, I'm regretting it now..
Boksu!
does it hurt?
now..
I can't run any more..
doesn't it hurt?
no, but..
I can't run..
stay here.
are you gonna buy some medicine for me?
no, you don't have to..
no, I'll get the bag.
forget it!
it was just for fun.
we're just trying to find the owner for fun.
forget about it!
I'll be back soon.
what's..
what's that girl doing?
Kyung,
you're so weird.
when we had decided to find the owner,
we gotta do it right.
you wanna stop it now?
we shouldn't have picked up this bag, then.
we did our best!
forget about it.
it's none of your business.
now you're overreacting!
- it doesn't seem to be none of my business..
- it definitely isn't your business!
I'm disappointed by you.
about what?
I don't really know, but..
I got disappointed.
oh..
I don't get
what you're talking about..
you're overreacting now.
no, I'm not. I'm just trying to
give it back to the owner.
now you're risking your life, aren't you?
risking my life? no!
it's you who're overreacting!
just don't overreact!
yes, a trouble comes like this..
you guys are so loud..
nothing to steal in this bag!
hey man!
what?
how come you don't speak
with a southern accent?
'cause I'm from Seoul.
I'm on vacation here.
I took your bag just for fun,
but it has nothing in it.
don't fight.
get along well.
you heard him?
nothing to steal in it.
while I was watching
the pictures inside this bag,
I put you
on the memory of these photos.
I placed you
on the streets of foreign countries
in my fantasy.
after I put you
on the memories of these pretty pictures,
I felt grateful for the streets..
and the photographer.
maybe this bag is
just nothing for other people,
but something for me..
and for the owner.
you're really..
oh..I think
I gotta say something cool, too..
shit!
I'm so touched by you..
you're driving me crazy..
you wanna have some pork belly? or beef?
pork belly..
what are you doing?
I'm not dead.
you get some sleep, too.
I won't wake you up this time.
when I feel like dying,
I'll tell you, okay?
when I'm saying nothing,
I'm not dying.
excuse me..
how many stops left
before we get to Jook-byun?
here's Jook-byun.
Boksu,
Boksu, we got Jook-byun.
driver! we're getting off!
my bag!
do you need these cosmetics?
you don't do make-up on you face, do you?
I do.
you do?
I put a light make-up on my face.
maybe you can't notice it.
don't waste your effort on your face!
I can't even notice.
I wanted to cover my freckles.
oh!
that's why..
I can't see your freckles today!
come with me.
okay,
let me put a make-up on your face.
we're gonna see the owner of this bag.
you gotta look pretty to him.
I'll put a make-up on your face, too.
oh, it's difficult.
this part first..
and this part..
oh, that helps!
okay, one more time.
I think it's enough.
let me finish this.
( film developing )
- is that the owner's name?
- yes.
he's a photographer,
I guessed it right.
what? you don't like ra-men?
no! I don't!
you're always saying 'no'!
what are you saying?
you threw a pot to me?
you hit me with a pan.
you call it 'hit'?
you hit me harder than that!
you hit me..
like this!
what are you doing?
doesn't it hurt?
it hurts.
so what?
anyway, I don't want ra-men.
I do.
it's me who's making money.
make dinner!
no.
stop it!
you hit this guy's head.
his head's gonna explode out!
oh, my brain cells are..
dancing on the tumor..
you heard him?
don't fight.
we're scared..
let's stop it.
we have guests.
you want to read comic books?
comic books?
have a seat, please.
we have something to ask you about.
well..what happened to your legs?
it's from a polio.
what? you got any problem with this?
no..
I mean, I'm worried about me..
you want to get a polio?
how could you think
I..'want' to get it?
you're very funny.
anyway,
tell me what you want to know.
are you..Kwon Young-ho?
no, I'm not.
but I saw the name on the plate.
oh, it's the photographer.
we moved into this place 1 month ago.
hey, you have the address of him?
it's in the drawer.
oh, here it is.
thank you.
honey, let's make a peace.
how about making a compromise?
let's eat the kimchi stew for dinner.
you're still angry?
yes, I am.
feel better now?
you really don't like ra-men.
I don't.
but noodles are okay.
okay, I see.
let's have dinner together.
he seems to be living off his wife.
no, he's a comic artist.
no, I'm just copying japanese comics.
you have your own comics,
don't you?
it's not even published yet.
so I'm not a comic artist.
shut up!
your comic books are great!
I'm quite sure about it.
you have any problem with that?
no.
I'm just happy as can be
as long as you like my comics.
I envy them.
like this?
are you full?
yes, I'm full.
I could just die.
we had lunch three times.
ashimi, pork belly..
and a kimchi stew this time.
stay here.
I'll go get some gums.
okay.
it's strange.
I'm sure I came this way..
it must be around here..
why isn't she coming?
hey, would you stop playing it for me?
oh, I don't like it..
stop it, please..
keep this bag for me.
okay?
I'll be back soon.
I said,
come close to the harmonica sound.
where's the sound coming from?
I..I can't find it, either!
why did she leave for just a gum?
oh!
Boksu!
oh..now I found you.
Kyu..Kyung..
it's..
it's very hard for us to meet..
right..
it has been very hard..
for us to find each other.
oh..it's hot.
it's like..a road to heaven!
a flower road to heaven?
have you ever been there?
don't mention about heaven!
it's so scary to hear that..
she's..so sensitive.
is it a road to hell, then?
excuse me..
excuse me!
- granpa..
- why?
why, why?
who are you?
let me ask you something!
don't yell at me.
you're speaking too loud!
do you happen to know Kwon Young-ho?
who's he?
I heard that he moved into this place..
when?
1 month ago?
oh, I remember the guy..
he was so sharp-tempered.
he left after 10 days.
saying it's boring here.
but life itself is boring, you know.
he's gone to somewhere.
you don't have his new address?
I don't..why?
we need to find him..
why?
- excuse me!
- why?
is this machine yours?
yes, that's mine.
you want to see me on that?
no..no.
it's quite different inside this village.
that's why we can't see the reality
from a distance.
if you wanna see it,
you gotta come close to it.
this village looked so antique from afar,
but now we know it's just nothing!
well, some kind of reality is visible
only when you're seeing it from afar.
when you're close to it,
you can't see how pretty those straw-roofs are.
all you can see is the satellite dish on the roof.
but when you're seeing it from a distance,
you know how pretty those roofs are.
okay, you're so smart.
and I know nothing!
- am I so smart?
- yes!
thanks.
Kyung,
do you think
I'm too close to my daddy now?
is that why I still hate him so much?
maybe.
well, but..
I wanna keep him close to me.
when he was close to me,
he looked so cute.
when your dad is far from you,
he looks so brutal,
and so foolish.
my daddy's not like that.
nobody can't be only warm-and-wise.
everyone has the brutal-and-foolish side in them.
don't question why daddy was like that,
you better question why love is like that.
what are you doing now?
I'm performing a funeral.
oh, it's scary!
didn't you say
it's a road to heaven?
right.
you're making a grave now?
you got it.
oh..please!
let me have some sleep!
I want to find Kwon Young-ho..
I don't want to find him.
I want some sleep!
you were touched by me.
don't you remember?
yeah..I was touched..
but that feeling's already gone now.
I don't want to see you
close your eyes.
then, you want me to open my eyes
all the time?
have some sleep while I'm away.
stop saying nonsense.
I..don't wanna be here in 'heaven'.
I wanna go back to the 'dirty world'..
where in the dirty world?
I want to find Kwon Young-ho.
it feels like
he must have something for us.
- he's been around the world, so..
- something for us? I don't think so.
I'm a patient, you know.
please treat me humanely..
you gotta learn from Mirae.
Kyung..
miss Chun Kyung!
miss Chun Kyung..
I don't care..
make your eyes like this..
miss Chun Kyung..
miss Chun Kyung!
nevermind!
- Mirae,
- ( you guys okay there? )
- Mirae,
- ( what? )
have you fed the fishes?
( I feed them once a day.
don't worry about fishes and
pay more attention to Boksu. )
when exactly did you feed them?
( whenever I have some free time.. )
feed them regularly!
you're having your meals regularly.
why not the fishes?
fishes can get indigestion!
( oh my..you got crazy! )
no! it's you who's crazy!
was it Mirae?
yes.
I feel better now.
let's go..
to find Kwon Young-ho.
oh, everything's against my will..
that's the way it goes..
oh!
I stayed here last night.
is that right?
oh, this town is so small..
alright, we can ask the landlady about him.
excuse me!
ma'am Jung-seob!
I'm back.
who are you?
I stayed here last night, you know.
did you?
I can't remember you..
can't you..
can't you remember me?
I stayed last night..
I have a so short memory..
you want to stay tonight again?
- no, I got something to ask..
- I don't know.
I know nothing,
even if you ask me..
don't you know about a guy
who moved into this town
about 15 days ago?
- a guy?
- yes.
a very strange guy is..
hanging around this town..
he's in the house over there.
no fence, no door..
is Kwon Young-ho here?
Mr.Kwon Young-ho,
are you sleeping?
let's just put the bag here
and leave.
no.
I want to see him.
what if he's ugly?
you might get disappointed.
am I doing a blind-date now?
you're ugly, too.
how can you say that to..
a guy who's gonna die soon?
hold this flower.
why did you bring it here?
how did you find me?
you lost it, right?
no, I just threw it away.
our effort was in vain.
let's go, Kyung.
it must have cost several years
to take these pictures.
why did you just throw it away?
'cause I just wanted to.
come on!
please answer her question.
she's so curious about it.
why did you get curious about it?
it has nothing to do with you.
cause..
it seems to be expensive!
the machine..
and films..
right..
it cost me pretty much.
follow me.
I'll let you guys see these pictures.
why is he taking us to a church?
I feel guilt here..
I guess you do.
Kyung,
you've lost so many points
in this trip!
so have you!
all five continents are in it.
what do you want to see first?
uh..Venice!
oh, Italy.
is Venice..
in Italy?
yeah.
you fool.
there were much better places than these..
where was the best?
well, it depends on person..
why did you throw it away?
lots of people have never
been to overseas, you know.
while I was taking pictures of
other people's lives..
I hadn't had a chance
to look into my own.
uh?
while I was taking
these kind of pictures,
my wife just got mad
and commit a suicide.
scary..isn't it?
yeah..
you didn't have to tell us the story..
you didn't have to..
to a photographer like me..
you two..
look very happy
and go well with these pictures.
but these are just misery to me,
you know..
so,
I just wanted to show it to you.
alright, then..
it's at your disposal.
good bye..
sir..
can you guess..
why your wife commit a suicide?
was it because you made her lonely?
or she just didn't want to be alone?
there's no way
I can figure it out.
and I don't try to figure it out..
any more..
'cause I don't think I can..
only one question is..
left to me..
what do I really want in my life?
seems like..
my wife's gone out of my life
to give me the chance..
to think about it..
in my life..
now I'm trying to find it..
what did your dad..
leave to you?
a bank account..
that's a good thing.
that guy seems to be..
from Seoul.
he doesn't speak with an accent.
from a distance,
those lights look pretty..
yes.
but when you get closer to it,
you can see dirty realities..
I like dirty things.
I have enough money
from my dad's account..
so..
I wanted to make you sleep
in an expensive room.
they said, 'no vacant room'.
I don't like hotels very much.
maybe it's because my dad is a hotel owner.
Kyung..
my head is aching..
give me an injection.
sure.
wait a second..
are they staying here tonight?
they went there,
after seeing 'no vacant room' sign.
oh, kids..
Kyung..
this injection turns me on..
it's not a drug..
get up, Boksu.
do you have a cancer?
I know about that injection.
my kid is suffering from a leukemia.
do you have a leukemia, too?
no, I have a brain tumor..
we have one room left.
please come in.
- we have one suite left, right?
- yes, sir.
please, come in.
it's okay to have just one glass of wine,
isn't it?
yes..
you and me..
let's do our best.
I saw you giving him an injection.
that was so beautiful..
you're a real beautiful person.
oh..
he should have given us 2 rooms..
I'm sure you're scared now..
to be in a closed space with a guy..
I..have been with a guy..
in one room.
oh..have you?
right, you said that before..
but..
never been with a patient, right?
what is he saying..
suddenly, I got nervous..
suddenly..
I'm nervous..
Boksu,
yes?
how about just..
getting married now?
wh..what are you saying..?
you're making me feel embarrassed..
n..now?
you want to..
get married now?
no..
it's you who said 'now'..
ah..you didn't..uh..
well..why are you..
talking about marriage now?
you're making me nervous..
I got..
nervous, too..
anyway..drink this wine and..
let's..just take it easy..and..
get some sleep..if you like..
or have some fun..
okay?
oh..
this room is so big..
oh..
my dad's hotel is just a motel
compared to this one..
cheers!
slow down.
let's get drunk fast!
only then we can get loose.
don't drink more than one glass.
it's bad for your brain.
I can't get drunk with this.
I need soju.
there're some liquors..
you said you have enough money, right?
I'll drink them.
oh, I should take this home.
she wandered around so much today..
and she's sleeping
without washing her face..
what a dirty girl..
bathroom is really nice here..
but she didn't even use it..
and she's just sleeping now..
getting married?
all of a sudden?
if you wanted to tempt me..
you gotta do it right..
good night..
Kyung..
I'm also..
putting you into these photos..
and into my eyes..
and into my brain..
just beside the tumor..
hey, Kyung..
clouds are just beneath this plane..
oh..
I saw that three times..
I couldn't see this
'cause I took the plane at night.
then,
you must have seen the stars..
no, I couldn't.
- excuse me,
- yes?
any medicine for a drunk?
I'll look for it.
medicine can't cure it.
you gotta have a hot soup.
how does it feel
to be over the clouds?
it feels like I'm in the sky land.
oh, that's just dumb!
I feel like I've become a god.
you got a great ambition.
Boksu,
yeah?
let's get..
an operation.
what kind of operation for us?
on brain tumor.
that's for me,
not for you.
you get an operation, then,
by the money your dad left to you.
okay?
no, I'm scared..
what's so scary about the operation?
before I met you..
I was scared of dying..
but now I'm with you..
I'm scared of
not being a 'man' any more..
even if I survived
after the operation..
I'm scared of
not being a 'man' any more..
that's more scary than dying..
what's wrong with you?
doesn't it feel weird?
your nose, ears..head..
yes, it feels weird..
oh yeah?
I thought only me feeling weird..
you seem to have a brain tumor, too.
I guess I'm infected by you.
oh, my life is done, too!
is it okay now?
oh, my nose wax.
were you pregnant, Kyung?
when did you give birth
to all these fishes?
what have you done
while I was not watching you?
get out of the way.
daddy..
good bye..
don't..
drag me down any more..
I'm busy, you know.
sorry for..
hating you..
you really got crazy?
what are you saying?
you even made me feed your fishes!
what are you doing now?
Boksu praised you.
did he said..
he likes me?
what are you talking about?
stop dreaming!
I'll marry Boksu as soon as possible.
I can see a happiness in you.
Boksu must be happy, too.
hey!
I can't divorce.
please calm down.
I'm never gonna hang out
with another woman any more.
honey,
yeah.
I..didn't get angry about you.
let's go home then.
if I had been angry,
I wouldn't have disappeared.
I can put down my anger very well,
you know.
it was not because
I got angry about you.
it's like..
for the first time in my life,
I did what I want to do..
even when you're not with another woman.
we don't spend time together,
we don't share nothing to do together.
that's my answer..
we both..
just needed each other
as a husband and a wife..
I needed your money,
and you needed me as an obedient wife.
but..
I don't want to do it any more.
now I've become myself..
a wise woman..
I can pray to god as myself now.
now I've become the 'strong' person
whom you always wanted me to be.
I won't divorce.
I don't like it!
I will.
I like it.
I don't want to make dinner
for others any more.
I'll make dinner for myself.
honey..
you're so slow, run fast!
get out of here,
what are you doing?
I'm doing my exercise.
it's none of your business.
what are you doing here, mister?
oh..hi,
I'm Sung-ho's brother..
I have something to tell him..
you can talk to him at your home.
- oh, I don't live with him.
- why?
- ah, that's my private life.
- alright.
Sung-ho!
you said
you're not my brother any more!
right, I'm not your brother!
now I'm your granpa!
nonsense!
then..I'm your sister!
are you a woman?
then..
you can call me anything,
okay?
except 'mom'.
let's..be friends, then.
just call my name.
no, I can't..
brother, sister, Boksu..
they're all the same to me.
they all mean..'me'!
say 'Boksu'!
you're smiling.
call my name.
I'll do the same to you.
brother..
Sung-ho brother.
it's weird.
sister.
Sung-ho sister.
hey, Boksu!
who's your mommy?
you're so rude!
- Sung-ho,
- yes?
Ko Boksu!
will you accept me
as your brother again?
yes, brother!
thank you.
Sung-ho.
thank you.
- take..this..
- thanks.
Boksu,
thank you so much.
the owner doesn't know about this.
keep it secret, okay?
I see, I see..
- take some of this.
- thanks.
bye!
yes..thank you so much..
you guys are ready?
let's go!
how come you're here?
Kyung told me that
she's gonna record an album.
it's from me, you know.
I knew you'd be like this..
when I heard about it,
I thought you're a man of ability, but..
now you got cocky about this..
you're not cool, you know.
I just said the fact.
you're so funny.
let's call it a day.
good job.
- oh, Mr.Han, thank you for coming.
- my pleasure.
aren't you guys hungry?
take this.
take this please.
- pizza and sushi..
- milk and bread..
you're a man of good sense!
you gotta learn from him.
I don't like pizza!
I can't eat sushi, either.
looks delicious!
Boksu, open this for me.
I love to drink milk opened by you.
oh..
I feel sick!
my gosh..
Boksu..
give me a break,
I'm not sure about it yet..
you decided to take an operation.
the sooner the better!
and you got money, too.
I'm..not sure about
whether to take it or not..
I'm..so happy with you now..
I don't want to ruin it..
when you're not sure
about the result,
you should try it first.
that's the right way to go.
because..
taking an operation is a challenge,
not a give-up.
I think a challenge is
the starting point of life.
let's me think..
some more about it..
you're afraid of losing
your 'man' in yourself?
yes..
I'll think about it.
Kyung,
these days,
you're always taking me home.
feels like I've become a girl.
good bye.
I'm staying here tonight.
what?
now I'm okay to be alone.
from today,
I'm staying here.
until you get an operation,
I'll stand by you just like a wife.
there's one more room, but..
no,
I'm sleeping with you.
as a man and a woman.
you don't have to worry about
losing your 'man' inside you.
I'm living with you
as a man and a woman..
until you get an operation.
Kyung,
yes,
are you giving a service to me?
you mean,
I have to taste a girl..
before I become a fool
after the operation?
Boksu..
you're a very weird girl..
suddenly I got sick of you..
