The Idle Mermaid

Episode 9

Previously on The Mermaid

I don't want to live here, so I'll move.

- Can't you stay?
- No.

What if she really moves?

Dissuade her.

Theirs is the same as ours!

Where did you get that idea?

You copied ours, right?

Maybe they got the USB drive...



- ...we lost that day.
- Let's forget it.

It was going too smoothly.

We're not sure.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I thought things would
work out this time.

I thought I'd get a job...

...and things would work out
with Shi Kyung.

How can you say that
in this situation?

You might just want to meet a guy...

...but our whole lives
are on the line here.

Go on a trip in this situation?

- I already made up my mind.
- Go.

Wherever you are, whatever you do,
you're family to me.

You're touched, huh?



You better not move.

What a precious relationship.

Try this.

I have to run.

Enjoy, Jin Ah.

Is she sleeping already?

Who are you?

Are you here to see Ha Ni?

I'll tell you the address if you want.

You're bleeding.

I'm good!

Give it to me.

You should be careful.

- Ha Ni!
- Shi Kyung?

Do you like Jin Ah?

No way.

Really?

Shi Kyung this, Shi Kyung that.

It gets me so upset!

Why do you get upset?

So refreshing!
Who is it?

Dry up, my tail.

It's chilly out.

Oh, Hyun Myung?

We're going to buy some beer.

Have another drink with us.

You want to go with us?

Mm-hmm.

What's with him?

Didn't he just say "mm-hmm"?

He better not drink.

Let's go.

Why, you...

Hey...

So refreshing!

She's really a mermaid?

Why...

...you can't believe it?

Now that you found out
about me...

...you'll have to die.

What?

Sorry, go back to sleep.

Good night.

I'm going nuts!

[Episode 9]
[You can at least shoot for the Stars]

Peanut butter is good for hangovers?

Go ahead.

Hey.

Geez!

What's wrong?

Nothing, I couldn't sleep much.

It's tight.
Go away.

You can sit beside Ha Ni.

I'm fine here.

Geez!

It's dry.

What's with him?

What's this?

You milked it this morning?

Oh, my!

Ha Ni!

You be careful!

Is that your favorite shirt?

Oh, my gosh!

- Did you get wet?
- I don't think so.

I'm ok, right?

Be careful!

I'm sorry.

You be careful too.

Don't get it on yourself.

I thought I did.

[Pony World]

So...

...we're going to do
the presentation contest?

Of course.

Then we need a new idea
in the next two days.

Any ideas?

Rice burgers that you can
simply enjoy like hamburgers.

That already exists.

Really?

How about waffles
instead of burgers?

We can bake rice like waffles.

Nice idea.

I like it.

Sorry, that already exists too.

It's popular in Jeonju.

You really know everything.

But why am I here?

It's better to have one more brain.

You know cup rice around
the cram schools in Yeongdeungpo.

How about that?

I think they have
something similar...

...in convenience stores.

This is hard.

Isn't Hyun Myung acting weird?

He keeps avoiding eye contact.

What's with him?

Maybe he holds grudges.

I doubt it.

Why?

You're disappointed?

No.

It's not that.

Come on, you're super
disappointed.

It's not that!

Yes, it is.

Whatever, I don't care.

She's really a mermaid?

Does that make sense?

I even visited her.

Why isn't she calling?

This work is endless.

Has Shi Kyung called?

Oh, Shi Kyung!

Hey, you said you wouldn't
contact him till you got a job.

Yeah.

You said you wouldn't beg for love.

Apparently, he's not dating anyone.

Shi Kyung said so himself.

Really?

His line is still busy.

Try again.

Keep calling until he picks up.

Ok.

The line is busy...

Who's she talking with for so long?

The line is busy...

It's busy again.

He must be busy.

This is really the last time.

It's Shi Kyung!

Oh, my gosh!

Hi, Shi Kyung!

So noisy.

Oh, I was just wondering...

...what you were up to.

I was feeding the sheep.

I see.

But why'd you go there?

We were preparing for a contest.

The topic is globalization
of Korean food.

So Hyun Myung made
me bean paste stew...

So we're trying to
think of new ideas.

Ok.

Call me when you get back to Seoul.

Ok, bye.

It's hot.

She talked about
the contest for 40 minutes.

Contest?

The one that our company
is participating in?

So...

...you want to be a judge?

You refused last time.

Why suddenly?

I gave it some more thought.

It's for the globalization
of Korean food.

It was hasty of me...

...to refuse that opportunity.

Yeah?

It'd be good for me
if you went with me.

It's a good opportunity
to find good talent.

Yes.

As you know, I'm
always a fair judge.

That should go without saying.

Never mind.

Please excuse me.

What's with him?

He's confusing me.

I'm so confused these days.

I'm crazy.

Hey Hyun Myung!

What?

What's wrong with you?

Didn't we make up yesterday?

What?

See?

You're avoiding eye contact.

You love to hold grudges, huh?

Can't you be a man?

Let's drop it.

That's what I want to say.

I'm not going to talk to you.

Let's eat!

Awesome.
Is this for watering the place?

Stop it!

Hey, guys!

Ha Ni!

You have poop on your boots!

Wait!
Hey!

Hey!

Here we go!

Here we go!

Hey, move it!

Ok, ok.

Ok, I will.

That's her favorite shirts too?

Ok.

Thanks.

I thought you hated me...

...but I guess I was wrong.

You were worried about me.

You're a great guy after all.

Are you supposed to shake this?

Don't you know?

You have to shake it to
truly enjoy this lunchbox.

We used to eat so many
of these, didn't we?

Shake it hard.

That will mix it well.

Ok.

Shake it

Shake it.
Shake it.

Shake it.

Shake it.

This is fun.

- That's it!
- What?

Bibimbap for foreigners...

...who can't use chopsticks.

Bibimbap you can shake like this.

What do you think?

Mixing equals...

...global culture exchange.

Right.

Ji Yong!

Let's use this...

...for the contest.

- Mix it up!
- Mix it up!

Mix it up!

Yo yo yo!

I like it!

Awesome!

We're home!

Nice.

Ma...

Uncle!

Oh, niece!

Hey.

What's up?

Nothing.

Thank you.

Welcome.

Did you meet him?

Who?

Shi Kyung.

How did you know?

He came here, so I sent him there.

Really?

He said it was a coincidence.

So he came to see me?

Awesome!

Thanks, Ma Nyeo!

Don't mention it.

Ok.

We have just two days.

We have to finish everything
in just two days.

We have to decide on
the lunchbox name first.

We need to decide
on the container...

...and design too.

Ok...

...I'll find a proper
container this time.

Me too.

It just has to be light and
convenient for take-out?

Right.

But most importantly...

...the contents shouldn't fall out
when you shake it.

Ok.

I'll come up with a name.

Ok.

Then I'll take care of...

...the design.

There's no time.
Let's hurry.

- Ok.
- Ok.

Mix it up!

Hi.

Why am I so down?

Can't I be?

We can't all be happy 24/7.
Right?

Leave the chat room
if you don't like it.

Get out!

Bye.

Don't worry, I won't get drunk.

"Shakey Udong" gave me
100 star balloons so I'll cheer up?

Thanks.

? Memories ?

? All alone in the moonlight ?

Sorry.

I usually turn it off during
web cam time, but I forgot.

Hold on a sec.

Hello?

I'm a bit busy now.

Hello, this is the team
for Cats and Others.

- Huh?
- You've passed the 2nd audition.

Really?

Sorry, I feel great now,
so have a good day.

Bye.

Hello?

Really?

When's the 3rd audition?

You have good news.

This is a secret.

I...

...passed the audition!

Really?

Just the 2nd one for now.

That's great.
Awesome!

The 3rd one is next week.

- Then you have to practice.
- Yeah.

Want me to play the guy?

You?

It's better than nothing.

- Ok.
- Ok.

500 Days of Summer.

It's a remake of the movie
starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

This is the scene to practice.

The couple goes to pick a bed
and talks about their relationship.

On...

...the bed?

Yeah.

Let's do it.

Ok.

Come on, lie down.

Ok.

Ok, let's start.

Wait, I have to get into the mood.

Wait.

Let me run to the bathroom.

Calm down, heart.

Come on.

"I don't want things to
get serious between us."

"Ok, let's take it slow."

Hey.

You took a while.

You take a dump?

No.

Ok, you took a dump.

I really didn't.

Ok, ok.

It was a joke since
you seemed nervous.

I'm not nervous.

Ok.

Let's do it.
Where are we?

Hurry up and lie down.

Wait.

I'll get into the mood.

Come on.

I'm acting with my expression.

Go ahead.

Ok.

What...

...are you thinking now?

I don't want things to get serious...

...between us.

Come on.

It's your turn.

I forgot, I forgot.

Hey, it's just one line.

"Ok, let's take it slow."

Then we get up and
leave, the end.

Ok?

Ok.

Let's try again.

Lie down.

I don't want things to get serious...

...between us.

Ok, le... let's take it slow.

No, no, no.

Don't do it, don't do it.

Forget it, forget it!

Sorry.

I don't know what got into me.

? Happy birthday, dear Jin Ah. ?

? Happy birthday to you. ?

Happy birthday!

Thank you.

You'll hate it when...

...your birthday comes around each year
when you reach my age.

But it's still fun for you, right?

I wish I were young again.

No.

Anyway, thank you for the party.

Where's Mr. Kwon?

I haven't seen him around.

Don't you know where he is?

Huh?

Oh, uh...

He must be preparing
a private surprise party for her.

Yeah?

I'm so jealous!

Yes.

I'll go pick it up soon.

Bye.

Mr. Kwon.

Jin Ah.

Going home?

Yes.

Is something wrong?

Uh...

...do you have plans
this evening?

Sorry, I already made plans.

I see.

I'm sorry, next time.

See you.

Bye.

[Sun Kyu: Happy b-day, come
celebrate if you want]

[Surplus House]

I'm crazy.

Why did I come here?

I surprised you, didn't I?

It's ok.

I bought them on the way.

Thank you.

We don't need flowers here.

They're so pretty.

Thank you.

What?

You can't get enough
of Shi Kyung either?

We meet again.

Huh?

Oh, yes.

Our 3rd time meeting, and
he doesn't recognize me.

I'm sorry.

That could happen.

It's ok.

Ask him why he's here.

He asked me to ask you
why you're here.

I just dropped by
on the way home...

...to see Ha Ni.

Really?

That's enough.

We were preparing for the contest.

Hey.

Don't you remember?

How they stole our idea?

Come on!

He's not entering the contest.

Want to see my room?

Sure, I'd like that.

This way.

This is how you live.

It's pretty empty, huh?

Maybe it's the lighting.

You look prettier from here.

Really?

You're preparing a lot
for the contest.

Yes.

We'll take 1st place and get
into a good company.

Of course, I'll go to JH.

You want to join
us that badly?

Yes.

Or I won't be able to
see you as often.

Yeah?

I'll win the competition
fair and square...

...so I can work with you.

Wait and see.

I'll make it.

That's cool.

I'll root for you.

I feel so encouraged.

Go, Ha Ni!

You're preparing
a lot for the contest.

Yes.

We'll take 1st place and
get into a good company.

Of course, I'll go to JH.

You want to join
us that badly?

Yes.

Or I won't be able to
see you as often.

Yeah?

I'll win the competition
fair and square...

...so I can work with you.

Wait and see.

I'll make it.

That's cool.

I'll root for you.

I feel so encouraged.

Go, Ha Ni!

Did you come...

...come up with the name?

I'm going to.

Everyone's waiting
for the meeting.

Hurry up.

Ok!

Hold on a sec.

It'll take a long time!

Geez.

Move!

It'll take a long time.

Yes.

[Happy birthday, Jin Ah]

I think you've had
enough to drink.

Come on, it's my birthday.

Thank you for coming.

I'm so happy today.

It would've been nice
if I'd known sooner.

No.

I'm so grateful you're here.

I thought it'd be...

...a lonely birthday again.

Thank you.

Sure.

I'll have one more drink.

Jin Ah.

Where do you live?

Jin Ah.

Wake up.

It's Mr. Kwon.

Mr. Kwon.

Don't go.

I can't believe I'm doing this.

- Let's go.
- Ready?

Yay!

Let's go now.

Let's go.

I feel awkward.

Are we all ready?

Hey.

Check if our shaking
box is in there.

Shaking, shaking, shaking box!

I thought up that name.

Yes, it's right there!

I can't believe we did
it in two days.

I didn't think we'd pull it off in time.

Go ahead before you're late.

Bye.

Bye, Sun Kyu.

Come here for a sec.

What?

What?

Aren't you going to go?
Where are you going?

- *Noona.
- What?

[Noona: Older female or older sister]

Don't you feel anything?

What?

How can you be so okay?

What...

Oh, that?

We were just acting.

What about it?

You're right.

It meant nothing to you.

Oh, my baby, was that it?

Move it!

What's wrong?

Noona.

I like you.

I might be a measly job hunter now.

But wait and see.

I'll make it big in the future.

Noona.

How do you feel about me?

Never mind.

You don't need to answer
me right away.

I'll get going.

Wish me luck.

[Idea Product Presentation Contest]

We brought stone pot covers.

You can say bibimbap...

...is easy to make.

[Judges]

But stone pots are different.

They intrigue foreigners.

But they're not safe.

So our stone pot covers...

...preserve both safety and taste.

Ms. Kim.

I'm here.

I just need to give
Mr. Kwon the document?

Ok, I'll have him sign it.

Bye.

What brings you here?

Are you a contestant too?

Yeah.
Got a problem?

Yeah?

Good luck.

Wait.

You lied.

I heard Shi Kyung and
you aren't dating.

What are you talking about?

I asked him directly.

He denied it flat-out.

You should have told me.

I got upset and drank so much.

So?

How does that change anything?

You think you suit him?

What?

Excuse me.

Stop dreaming.

You're begging for his love.

Just beat it.

Why, you!

Wait and see.

I'll take 1st place and get into JH!

We focus on health
and convenience.

Those are the needs...

...of everyone in the world.

Charlie Brown, Charlie,
Charlie, lie.

Charlie Brown, Charlie.

How can he just
ignore me like that?

Why's he here anyway?

Did he come here to see Ha Ni?

They must've prepared a lot too.

I'm so nervous.

I'm nervous.

We've got everything?

Hey.

Hey.

This will calm you down, take it.

I said, I'm good.

But, it can't hurt, right?

That's the best when you're nervous.
It's the bomb.

Yeah?

Then have one more.

Yeah, have one more.

I said, I'm good.

Don't worry.
Ok?

Everything will work out.

I'll...

...show you what I've got...

- ...so watch carefully.
- Ok.

Hyun Myung!

Wake up!

Hyun Myung!

- Hyun Myung!
- Wake up!

- Oh, my gosh!
- Hyun Myung!

Hyun Myung!

Be careful!

- Hyun Myung, gosh!
- Be careful!

He system was shocked.

He'll be ok after some rest.

Where did you buy
the medication?

The Internet.

It's medication.

You should get the real stuff.

I'm fine.

We're going.

Don't worry.

What should we do?

We only have one hour left.

I'm worried about him.

Calm down.

Deep breath.

We should calm down
in an emergency.

Wait.

How about we go last?

We're supposed to go last.

I see.

What if he doesn't
come by then?

What else?

I'll...

...do it.

I'll practice.

The... tar...

...target...

I can't do it.

I can't do it.

You do it.

- Me?
- Yeah.

I have st... fright.

What?

He...

Deep breath.

Deep breath.

Are you ok?

This is bad.

You do it.

How can I do it?

I've never done this.

Then... will you give up?

Gosh.

Oh, my gosh!

I'm really ok!

Please let me go.

No, you fainted.

I'll faint if I don't make it.

Come on, you can't go.

Bye.

Hey!

This is our...

...team's presentation.

The food business is busy...

...and the organic boom...

What's she doing?

Wait.

We'll skip this since you must be
tired of these presentations.

- What?
- What?

? Shake it, shake it, shake it,
shake it, baby ?

? Shake it, shake it, baby ?

? Your love left you ?

? Shake it, shake it, shake it,
shake it, baby ?

They do that when
there's no idea.

I just danced and
made my meal.

Want to see?

Young people don't even...

...have time for a good meal.

Part-time jobs, job hunting...

It takes all your time.

It's the same all
over the world.

So this is for them.

You can forget your
worries for a minute.

Enjoy your food.

And the bonus is...

...you can lose weight like me.

Most importantly...

...it's globalization of
Korean food.

Thank you.

When did you get here?

Are you ok?

Did you see me?

I was so nervous.

Yeah.

You were great.

You're the best.
