Sorry to disturb you at such a late hour.

What is it?

Oh, I was nearby,
and I just wanted to say hello.

SANGGU: These are my friends.

(in Tagalog)
Come say hello.

(in Korean)
Can we come inside and talk for a bit?

Whoa, whoa.

(door slams)

(dog barking in distance)

(angrily)
What do you think you're doing?

Oh!

I heard that you lost all your money
while gambling.

I was so worried, so I decided to drop by.

You fucking asshole. Hey!

(angry breathing)

So you're here to intimidate me

because you think I'll run away
without paying you back?

(sighs)

Hey, Sanggu.

Hey. Do you really think
that you'll get away with this?

Moosik.

You know, that money
is very important to me.

Of course, you need to pay me back.

I'll pay you back!

I'll pay you back.
I'll pay you the interest, too.

But...

think twice before messing with me.

Okay?

You asshole. I said that I'd pay you back,
so I'll pay you back.

Okay?

(in a half-hearted tone)
Sure.

(dog barking in distance)

(in Tagalog)
Lower the gun.

(annoyed sigh)

(dog barking in distance)

(sighs lightly)

(in Korean)
I'll get going, then.

(thunder rumbling)

(smacks lips)

(theme music)

(gunshot)

BIG BET

THE TEN-YEAR DEBT

(sighs)

(smacks lips)

SEOKJUN: You seem like

you've got a lot on your mind today.

(sighs lightly)

(loud indistinct talking)

Yeah.

(inhales)

(sighs)

You know, when I started making money,
it wasn't really planned out.

(smacks lips)
Well, now I've lost it all.

Feels pretty awful, doesn't it?

(disbelieving laughter)

(inhales)

Yeah. Really awful.

What are you planning on doing now?

Well, since I'm penniless now,

I'll just have to look
for something else to do.

I mean...
(sighs, smacks lips)

...I'm pretty good
at starting from scratch.

(breathes deeply)

(smacks lips)

In that case,

do you want to be my business partner?

(sighs)

(smacks lips)
Don't worry.

I won't ask you to pay me.

(inhales)

I've been watching you for a while now,

and you seem like a very firm man.

You know, I've never been business
partners with anybody before.

(inhales sharply through teeth)

But...

I think that I could work with you.

(smacks lips)

Thank you for thinking so highly of me.

I've been acting so arrogantly
all this time

because I had some money in my pockets.

(breathes deeply)

You know, you can start speaking
more casually to me now.

You're older than me after all.

(laughing)

If you say so.

Thank you, Mr. Min.

I promise you that no matter what
I have to do, I'll give it my all.

(smacks lips)

All right.

That makes me feel a lot better.

(Seokjun laughing)

(honks blaring)

(straining breath)

(inhales)

(happy laughter)

(inhales, laughs)

(laughing)

(laughs, coughs)

Fuck, that's awesome.

(sniffs, smacks lips)
Yeah?

(laughs, sniffs)

(clears throat, sniffs)

Dongeok.

What did your friend do in Korea?

-Who? Moosik?
-Yeah.

He was in the HID.

He used to be one of those agents
that they send to North Korea.

Wow, he was an agent?

I'm pretty sure he went
to North Korea a couple of times.

(smacks lips)

Dongeok.

Didn't you say
that he used to operate an arcade?

Yeah. He made
a shit-ton of money doing that.

It all fell apart, though.
(laughs)

(laughs in disbelief)
Hey.

Fuck, he's just another lackey
of mine anyway.

(laughs)

(chomps)

(thoughtful breath)

-What?
-No, nothing.

(smacks lips)

Hey!

-Give me another one of those.
-I think you should stop, Dongeok.

You fucker! Who do you think you are?

Hey!

You think I'm an idiot? Huh?

You might die.

You fucking druggie.

(disbelieving laughter)

I told you to give me more,
so give it to me.

Give me all of them! Fuck!

(sighs lightly)

Fuck.

Don't you know how to respect your elders?

-(birds chirping)
-(rooster crowing)

(gulps)

(chomps)

Hey, what's up with your face?

Are you sick or something?

No.

Don't give me that.
Your dark circles look like mascara.

What?

Hey, if you're not feeling well,
go to the hospital.

How are the side dishes?

-Oh, they're delicious as usual.
-(awkward laughter)

(chuckles)

(slurps)

(gulps)

(chomps)

Hey.

I need to go to Seoul.
Can I borrow 300 thousand pesos?

I'm broke.

(chomps)

Oh, really?

(sighs lightly)

All right. Don't worry about it, then.

I'm sure that you have a lot of things
to spend money on. Yeah.

(awkward grunt)

Hey.

When is Junsu going to study abroad?

I'm going to study abroad, Mom?

(in surprised tone)
Study abroad?

(flustered breathing)

(in surprised tone)
Uh, excuse me, uh...

(straining grunt)

(inhales)

(sighs lightly)

(tires screech)

(indistinct PA announcement)

JONGHYUN: I looked into it,
and the NTS was hell-bent

on getting some information
about you guys.

Your operation was pretty big, you know?

Apparently, the director
of Bureau 4 used to work

at the NTS branch in Seoul or something.

Ever since he came down here,
he's been anxious to show some results.

Hey, you know their female team leader?
What's up with her?

She's always calling me,
trying to intimidate me.

(Jonghyun laughs)

She's really something else.
See, I called her this one time.

Dude, she's a bitch. A bitch.
She's a huge bitch.

I hope that I don't have to talk
with that crazy bitch ever again.

Moosik, don't try to fight them.

If the NTS really starts tearing into you,
there's no way to escape that.

You can either go to prison
or pay your taxes.

Wait, hold on.
Why haven't they prosecuted you yet?

It's probably not that easy
for them to prosecute.

Hey, by the way,
what is Chiyoung's sentence?

(laughs)
Shit, he's so fucked.

(inhales)

He got five years in prison
and a surcharge of 45 billion won.

Wow, so he's screwed.

So don't try to fight them.
If you do, you'll get screwed over too.

Just plead with them and say that
you don't have any money, okay?

I talked to a tax accountant,

and he said that they might reduce
your charges if you play nice.

Okay? You can't get away
with not paying them.

So just beg.
Ask them to reduce your taxes. Fuck.

Okay? "Please reduce my taxes."

MOOSIK, YOUR FATHER PASSED AWAY

Who is that?

Well, we're all in the mood for a melody.

And you've got us feelin' all right."

SINCERITY PASSION HONESTY

(smacks lips)
Hey.

What do you guys want to do
when you graduate?

-(thoughtful grunt)
-(smacks lips)

I don't know. What should I do?

-Maybe I'll be a public official.
-(puffs)

(laughs)

Don't be stupid. Hey, becoming
a public official isn't that easy.

(laughs)

You should stop skipping school first,
dumbass.

What do you want to do?

(inhales)

(sighing)
I don't know.

Maybe I'll get a job at a factory
or become a construction worker.

What about you?

I...

(smacks lips)

...want to go to Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia?

Yeah.

I'll work for a construction company

and make so much fucking money abroad.

Oh...

It is nice to get away from home.

(gasps)

Hey, I want to go to Saudi Arabia too.
Wasn't there this Saudi Arabian thing?

Saudi-cop?

-Saudi-cop?
-(laughs)

Ugh, hey. Saudi-cop would mean
a police officer in Saudi Arabia. Damn.

A police officer?

You'll never make it, you idiot.

(laughter)

JINSEOK: You little brats!
Put out your cigarettes!

You all look like you're having
a lot of fun, huh?

JINSEOK: Go get ready for class!
Go on, go downstairs!

And you! You need a haircut.

Thank you.

-You need to stop skipping school.
-Thank you.

And you! Is that a pen on your ear?
Huh? Is that a pen?

-(surprised grunt)
-(clicks tongue)

I'm sorry.

Moosik.

Come over here.

(clicks tongue)

(sighs)

(smacks lips)

Hey. Why do you keep getting into trouble?

What did I do?

You little brat.

When are you going to grow up?
Aren't you going to study?

Why should I study?
I'm just going to get a job and work.

You're all talk.
(clicks tongue)

(smacks lips)
Are you doing anything tomorrow?

I'm not doing much.

Well, if you're not doing much,

you can come over to my place
and watch my kid.

I need to go to a reunion,
but I don't have anybody else.

Can you do it?

Okay.

And throw that cigarette butt
into the incinerator.

Okay.

Go.

(crickets chirping)

(Kyungduk sighs)

KYUNGDUK: Hey, hey.

(strained breathing)

(straining grunt)

Go buy me a syringe
and some streptomycin sulfate.

(Kyungduk sighs)

(Kyungduk smacks lips)

(straining grunt)

Let's see.

One, two...

Here, take them.

(inhales)

(smacks lips)

What are these?

They're antibiotics.

STREPTOMYCIN

What are you supposed to do with them?

(inhales sharply)
I don't know.

(plastic rustling)

(sighs lightly)

(straining grunt)

(inhales)

(straining grunt)

MOOSIK: At first, I didn't even know
that was a drug.

My father had become a druggie
after spending seven years in jail.

(sighs)

(strained breathing)

(exhales loudly)

(dial whirring)

(sniffling)

Mr. So.

I'm at Jochiwon Station right now.

(teen Moosik exclaims)

(Chaerin laughs)

(exclaims in surprise)

It's following you.

(both laugh)

JINSEOK: Dad's home.

(chuckles)
Look at you.

(Jinseok exhales)

-Moosik.
-(breathes in surprise)

You brat.

(in a sleepy voice)
Yeah.

Hey, uh, Chaerin didn't cry, right?

Oh, no.

(sniffles)

She had a lot of fun playing.

-Oh, she's asleep in her room.
-(laughs slightly)

I saw.

-(sniffles)
-(inhales)

All right. You did great.
Hey, you should go home now.

-Okay.
-By the way, how did you get here?

I walked.

What? You walked all the way over here
from Daejeon?

Yeah. It didn't take that long.

What are you talking about?
It takes an hour even when you're driving.

Well, I just walked along
the train tracks.

It didn't take that long.
(inhales)

(in a surprised tone)
Oh, uh, Mr. So, I'm going home now.

(teen Moosik breathes hurriedly)

(door opens)

JINSEOK: Hey, Moosik.

(breathes rapidly)

(smacks lips, inhales)

You're smart enough for college.
So study, and go to college.

I'm not interested in college.

Uh, I'm going to go to Saudi Arabia
and make some money.

You don't know what the world is like yet.

(coughing)

(inhales)
Is your mother doing well?

Yeah.

JINSEOK: All right.

You should go to college.
You'll make your mother happy. Okay?

You need to study.

(teen Moosik sighs)

TEEN MOOSIK: Mr. So.

(smacks lips)
I'm not in a situation to go to college.

You must know this too
since you visited my place,

but I can't study there.

Then go study in a study room.

If you just try hard enough,
then you can do anything.

(in a half-hearted tone)
Sure.

Hey.
(coughs)

Take this.

(Jinseok inhales)

Study hard, and dream bigger.

You're definitely talented enough
for that, all right?

(dramatic music)

(teen Moosik exhales)

(teen Moosik sighs)

(teen Moosik breathes out)

(teen Moosik exhales deeply)

MOOSIK: There was 100 thousand won
in the envelope.

(breathing shakily)

Back then, Mr. So's monthly paycheck
was 200 thousand won.

(exhales deeply)

Why did he do that for somebody like me?

(smacks lips, inhales)

(sighs)

(sniffling)

(Kyungduk grunts angrily)

Hey, you bitch!

Where did you get the money
to buy this with?

-(surprised breathing)
-Hey!

Kyungduk.

(in a shaky voice)
Please, please don't take this.

Not this one.

(angrily)
Don't take this, my ass!

-(screams)
-(grunts)

Hey, give it here.
Give it here. Give it to me!

(Sukja grunts)

SUKJA: No! Don't!

-KYUNGDUK: Give it to me!
-(Sukja shouts)

Kyungduk.
(breathing heavily)

SUKJA: I bought this for Moosik!

I'm going to give it to him
when he's older!

You fucking bitch!

We don't even have the money
for food right now.

You're dead. Come here!

-(Sukja crying)
-(huffing angrily)

-Hey, come here!
-(huffing angrily)

Stop it! Stop hitting Mom!
(breathing heavily)

Wow. You son of a bitch!

(Sukja grunts)

Hey, you little piece of shit.

-Come over here.
-Stop it, you fucking bastard!

Come here!

If you touch Mom again,
I'm going to kill you.

What are you doing?

-(breathing heavily)
-Moosik, it's my fault.

Come here. Come right here.

-(teen Moosik huffing angrily)
-(Sukja sniffles)

Come here, you little shit!

(door creaks close)

(clatters)

(sighs)

(in a strained voice)
Come here.

That son of a bitch.

(sighs)

YEONGSEOK: Shouldn't I have gotten
the call first? What the hell is this?

Did I really have to hear about
this from somebody else?

I'm still the eldest son, aren't I?

How was I supposed to know
your phone number?

You know Yeongsuk's number, don't you?
You could have asked her.

You didn't even try to look into it.

(sighs lightly)

YEONGSEOK: Hey, are you Moosik?

My name is Yeongseok.
I'm your older brother.

I've heard a lot about you from Father.

What older brother?

(inhales)

We have different mothers.

Father probably never told you about it.

-(deep breathing)
-You know how he was, right?

So what?

(in a surprised tone)
Huh?

What do you want me to do about it,
you fucking asshole?

Wow, look at you. Where are your manners?
You're talking to your older brother here.

Older brother?

Fuck, I don't remember having
a brother like you!

Hey, if you're hungry, just go
and stuff your face.

Get out.

Hey, don't be stubborn.
Leave while you still can, all right?

(in a small voice)
Honey.

Fucking bastard! He's still giving me
trouble even after he's dead!

(grunts in frustration)

Fuck!

(annoyed breathing)

(in a small voice)
Calm down.

(inhales)

(somber music)

REST IN PEACE

CEO KIM JAEYEONG

(smacks lips, breathing tensely)

What? A surcharge of 8 billion won?

Your friend got charged
with 45 billion won.

You're not paying that much.

Hey, you shouldn't be
comparing me with him.

Look, I never made that kind of money.

That surcharge doesn't take
the gaming machines into account.

Look, the casino bar that you operated
got more than 30 billion won in sales.

What exactly makes you say
that I got 30 billion won in sales?

Oh, well.

I just did a lot of research.

Your personal income alone
was well over 20 billion won.

I didn't make that much money.

(sighs lightly)

And I really don't have a lot
of money right now.

MOOSIK: I've given it away. All of it.

(sighs lightly)

You changed all the cash to certificates
of deposit and bearer bonds, didn't you?

Who, me?

Yes, you.

How on earth would I have changed that?
Where could I have done it?

Well, you probably changed it at the place
where you conducted your business.

And where would that be?

(inhales)

You probably know that better than me.

(sighs)

(inhales)

We're being nice with the 8 billion won.

The 20 billion won is based
on the very minimum amount of profit.

I keep telling you,
I never made that much money.

And, if I'm being honest,

I just did everything
that Chiyoung told me to do.

I liked the plans that he had.

(inhales)

If you keep playing dumb,

then we'll have no choice
but to formally file a lawsuit.

(sighs)

(inhales)

Ms. Kang.
(smacks lips)

Why are you doing this? Huh?

I mean, I'm just saying this
because you apparently did some research.

So I don't know why you didn't look
into the other stuff.

I've been giving out donations
for our society,

and I've been helping some people
who are not so well off.

Just ask my acquaintances. They all know.

(sniffs)

Your wife seems like
a very innocent woman,

don't you think?

(deep breathing)

(sighs)

Could you please stop going
to my family's apartment?

Just talk to me.

I saw that you sold your apartment
in a hurry.

Are you going to the Philippines?

Yeah.

I'm going to live with my family now.

So, you're not coming back?

MOOSIK: That...

would depend on how you treat me.

I'm not saying
that I'm not going to pay my taxes, okay?

I'm just asking you to reduce it
by a little bit.

I really can't pay that money right now.

If you keep telling me to pay that money,
then I can't come back to Korea.

Fine, then.

Honestly, I can't even pay that much.

But if you keep doing this,
then I guess I'll just have to go to jail.

Right? I'll just go to jail.
There's nothing else that I can do.

(frustrated sigh)

(inhales)

Please.

(smacks lips)

Please help me out with this. Yeah?

If you reduce the amount
by just a little bit,

I'll try my hardest to pay you.

(thoughtful breathing)

(inhales)

(breathing lightly)

I took 80 percent off.

You've got to pay this much
at the very least.

(angrily)
Come on. You can pay this much, right?

-(Moosik sighs)
-Right?

Don't do this.

Please reduce it by 90 percent.

(annoyed breathing)

(sighs)

(inhales)

Ms. Kang.

(breathing lightly)

I'm begging you.

Please trust me, okay?

I can beg on my knees if you want.

(sighs)

Please just trust me this once! Please!

Please have some mercy.

UPRIGHT WITH INTEGRITY

(Ilho sighs)

Minjeong, why did you reduce it
by so much?

(smacks lips)
We don't have enough data,

and if this turns into a lawsuit,
we won't have a good chance to win.

It's better to just reduce the fines

and get a portion
of what we were supposed to get.

We don't have enough data?

Well, what was that data back there?

(disbelieving laughter)

SANGGU: Moosik.

Hey. Good to see you.

You didn't bring your lackeys with you?

Yeah.
(smacks lips)

I guess I didn't.

Oh, how was your trip to Korea?

-(laughs slightly)
-(inhales)

(Moosik puffs)

(exhales)

I put in a good amount
of interest in there, too.

(smacks lips)

Thank you.

(inhales)

(exhales)

Sanggu.

Yeah.

I'm telling you this because
you're somebody who does business, okay?

(smacks lips)

Here's the thing about doing business.

You shouldn't be using guns for it.
It's all about trust.

So, from now on, don't act so arrogant
with those lackeys with guns.

Especially not to me.

Got it?

(smacks lips)

Yeah. I felt uneasy about that, too.

(inhales)
Let's talk business.

By the way, do you only deal with money?

Well, I'm an expert
at doing money transfers.

I launder the money that's moving
in-between the casino and Korea

and move it around a couple of times
so that everything's nice and clean.

In that case,

do you want to work with me on something?

(curious grunt)

W-What is it?

I'm going to run a junket,
so there will be a lot of money transfers.

Well, where are you going to do them?

At Purvio Hotel, with Mr. Min.

(exclaims)

-(inhales)
-I... I like the sound of that.

(Moosik smirks)

I'll give you 5 percent as commission.

And if you do a good job,
then I'll give you more money, okay?

(groans)

Thanks, Moosik.

MOOSIK: I'll call you when I need
to send the money. You can go now.

(inhales)

(puffs)

What?

-Huh?
-Is there something that you want to say?

Oh, no.

(indistinct talking)

Hey.

I can tell that you want
to say something. Spill it.

(sighs)

(smacks lips)

Have you been friends with Dongeok
for a very long time?

Of course. He's my best friend.

We've been friends since high school.

You should distance yourself from him.

What?

Dongeok doesn't think of you as a friend.

He said, "Moosik, that sucker."

"He's a dumbass. I have him
in the palm of my hand.

I'm just taking all his money."

"He'll be penniless soon enough."

That's what he goes around
telling everyone.

Even to me, he said, "Get Moosik's money
before he runs away to Korea."

That's why I went to you
with my boys back then.

MOOSIK: Hey, you.

(Moosik breathing shakily)

Can you bet your life on that?

SANGGU: Moosik.

I think the two of us should confront him.

He's a piece of garbage. He's a real
piece of shit. The biggest piece of shit.

(inhales sharply)

(breathes deeply)

(sighs lightly)

Hey, you son of a bitch!

Are you trying to drive us apart?

Dongeok is my friend.

You've worked with him, right?

Haven't you?

I have.

So, how come you're calling
a business partner "a piece of garbage"?

You know how that makes you look?

Don't do that.

And if you tell me
something like that again,

I'll rip your mouth open from ear to ear.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
You can go.

(Moosik sighs)

I'll be going now, then.

(breathes in frustration)

(grunts)

(line ringing)

(ringing continues)

Hey, it's me.

(Dongeok sniffs)

(Moosik sighs)

(Moosik gulps)

(sniffs)

(Moosik exhales)

-(munches)
-(clicks tongue)

(inhales)

(sighs deeply)

Dongeok.

(munches)

Now that I think about it...

(inhales)

I came to the Philippines
because I'm friends with you, you know?

And I'm grateful
for all you've done for me.

-(smacks lips)
-Oh, man.

(gulps)

(inhales)

And I feel bad for all the trouble
your wife had to go through, as well.

Oh.

-I'm thankful to her, too.
-(smacks lips)

What's gotten into you?

(laughs)

I'm just being honest, dumbass.

(exhales awkwardly)

-But...
-(inhales)

...it all ends here.

From now on, I'm not going
to accept any more of your help.

And I won't be...

(breathing shakily)

...drinking with you anymore, either.

(sniffs)

(smacks lips)

Hey.

Is this because I didn't lend you money?

(inhales)

(disbelieving laughter)

(chokes, coughs)

(exclaims in disbelief)

(laughing)

(inhales)

(sighing)
Hey.

(inhales)

Wow, you fucker really think
that I'm a fucking joke, don't you?

(inhales)
Well, you should know this better than me.

Even if you think
that I'm a lackey of yours...

(inhales)

...I'm not a total sucker
in the palm of your hand

that you can leech money from? Right?

(Moosik inhales)

Hey! Did you really think
that I was some piece of shit

who would steal Sanggu's money
and run away with it?

You asshole.

(breathing shakily)

MOOSIK: My goodness.

(in a shaky voice)
Hey, you son of a bitch.

(in a calm tone)
Hey, you idiot.

You're bleeding. You should wipe that.

(inhales)

(in an angry voice)
You fucking bastard!

Are you trying to make me
look like an idiot?

Dongeok.

(Dongeok breathing heavily)

You think you can beat me?

(breathing heavily)

(in a shaky voice)
You fucker. I'm going to kill you.

(Dongeok breathing heavily)

Oh, you think you can do it?

(clattering)

MOOSIK: Hey.

I'll give you five seconds.

If you can't stab me
with this in five seconds,

I'm going to put a hole in your belly.

I'm going to start counting.

(breathing tensely)

One.

(breathing tensely)

Two.

You fucker...

(inhales tensely)

(breathing tensely)

Three.

(breathing tensely)

(breathing shakily)

(Dongeok inhales)

-(Dongeok breathing shakily)
-Four.

(Dongeok inhales)

(breathing shakily)

(sighs sharply)

(breathing shakily)

Hey, hey. Moosik, Moosik.

Fuck. Hey, look.

(inhales)
What happened...

(Dongeok breathes deeply)

...to us? Huh?

(breathing heavily)

Now, do you know why

you can't beat me?

-So...
-(breathing shakily)

...don't go around talking shit about me,
you fucker.

I'm sorry.

MOOSIK: You can talk shit

only when you can beat me.

(breathing lightly)

MOOSIK: And...

(inhales)

...from now on,

you're not my friend.

(smacks lips)

(breathing lightly)

(chair scrapes)

Don't go around calling yourself
a gangster, okay? It's a fucking shame.

(inhales)

(gentle guitar music)

(puffs)

(inhales)

(exhales loudly)

SEOKJUN: Did you manage to take care
of your tax problem in Korea?

MOOSIK: Yeah.

Well, it took a little bit of effort
to reduce the amount.

But I'm going to pay them.

(laughs slightly)
Well, that's a relief.

It must have been difficult.

(grunts)

There's 100 million pesos in there.

(smacks lips)

If I'm being honest, I made
300 million pesos thanks to you.

So I'll give you 50 million pesos
of my own money.

With my 50 million pesos,
it's 100 million pesos in total.

SEOKJUN: Let's start with this.

(flustered breathing)

(stammers)

-(exhales awkwardly)
-(Seokjun smacks lips)

SEOKJUN: But before that,

I need to verify something.

-Boknam.
-BOKNAM: Yeah.

Right.

(smacks lips, inhales)

Do you think you can get this for me?

What... is this?

SEOKJUN: They're debts to be collected.

They're a decade old.

They all borrowed my money
but didn't pay me back.

(Seokjun inhales)

I've got gang bosses and athletes
in there among others.

Honestly, it'll be hard
to get the money back from them.

I want you to go and collect the money.

(breathes softly)

(inhales)

All right.

MOOSIK: He's not someone
to be underestimated.

He wants me to go and recover bonds

that have been rotting in the safe
for a decade?

After I lost an old friend,

I went back to Korea
to collect Mr. Min's crap bonds.

Hello.

MALE OWNER 1: Oh, welcome in.

MOOSIK: The first debtor
that I went to meet

was a gangster in Samcheok
named Park Iseong.

Okay, drink.

MOOSIK: As the president
of the Korean beef association,

he held some power in his community.

-Mr. Park Iseong?
-(soft gasp)

Who's Mr. Park?

Me.

Who are you?

My name is Cha Moosik.

MOOSIK: You know Mr. Min, right?
From the Philippines?

(sighs)
Yeah.

You borrowed 30 million won
of Mr. Min's money and ran away, right?

Well, I'm here to collect that money.

-(laughs in disbelief)
-You little shit.

(inhales)
Don't you know who I am?

Hey, what the hell do you think
you're talking about?

Didn't we just meet?

I wasn't aware that we're friends,
but you're talking to me like we are.

(scoffs)

MOOSIK: Anyway,

if you don't pay back Mr. Min's money,
then I'm going to kill you.

(gangsters laugh)

ISEONG (laughing):
He's going to kill me.

That little sack of shit.

-(laughs)
-Wow.

Hey, hey, he's lost his mind.
Hey, give him a nice beating.

(Iseong laughing)

Beat him up.
(laughs)

Hey, I don't want
to talk about this with him.

I need to talk with you, Mr. Park.

(inhaling)
Shit, man. Just get lost.

Huh.

Ugh, that moron.

(in a strained voice)
I said, go!

What? Did I hurt your little feelings?

-Don't do it.
-You little shit!

(screams)

Stop it!

-(gangster 1 grunts painfully)
-Getting handsy, huh?

Do you usually go around
beating people up?

-MOOSIK: Huh?
-(gangster 1 grunts)

(gangsters gasp)

Don't move. Don't move.

-(gangster 1 grunts painfully)
-You'll get hurt if you do.

(grunting painfully continues)

(gangster 1 groaning painfully)

-What?
-(pained scream)

-Damn it.
-(gangsters gasp)

(screams)

(gangster 1 screaming painfully)

MOOSIK: Take him and get out.

-(grunts in pain)
-Go to the hospital.

-(gangster 1 moaning painfully)
-All right.

(sighs)

(soft thud)

What are you doing?

MOOSIK: Aren't you leaving too?

You rude brat.

The adults are talking.

(sighs lightly)

Mr. Park.

(Moosik smacks lips)

Let's talk like civilized people.
I don't want to do this either, okay?

(inhales)
Damn it.

Look at all this blood.

(sighs lightly)

Make the deposit by the end of today.

(thuds)

MOOSIK (inhales):
Is this Mr. Park Wonyong's number?

WONYONG: Who are you?

Right, hello. I'm Cha Moosik.

Who?

MOOSIK: Cha Moosik.

And who's Cha Moosik?

(smacks lips)
You know Mr. Min

from the Philippines, right?

Mr. Min from Purvio Hotel.

Well, I'm one of his friends.

(sighs)
It looks like you borrowed 60 million won

from him a while ago.

MOOSIK: You need to give me
that money now.

What the hell? Are you crazy?

WONYONG: Hey, you fucking bastard!

Who do you think you're talking to, huh?

I know that we're talking on the phone,
but let's not start cussing yet.

We're just getting acquainted.

We're both educated, right?

Let's try to hold
a civilized conversation.

And cussing won't do you any good,

because I'm going to collect
that money no matter what.

WONYONG: Hey, do you think you're
in the Philippines?

Do you have a death wish or what?

Where are you, you little shit?

Oh, so you're coming to me?

There's no need for that.

Just give me a place,
and I'll go meet you there.

(doorknob rattling)

-(grunts)
-(doorknob rattling)

Wow, look at this guy.

PROMISSORY NOTE
AMOUNT: 60 MILLION WON

(Moosik sighs)

(smacks lips)

(light music)

(panting)

H-How can I help you?

Your husband is Mr. Park Wonyong, right?

Yeah, that's right.

I've come to the right place, then.

(inhales sharply)

What do you think I need help with?
I'm here to get a perm, of course.

-Miss, can you wash my hair?
-Wh-What do you need?

(inhales)

I told you, I'm here to get a perm.
Let's talk after that.

Wait, I'm sorry, but...

Uh, can you... can you put out
your cigarette? You can't smoke in here.

Oh, right, right, right. I'm sorry. Right.

-(grunts)
-You can't do this here...

Ugh, why is the weather so hot?

Excuse me, I'm sorry,
but I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

-Damn, it's hot.
-Oh! Wait, wait...

(Wonyong's wife exhales)

(groans)

-(Moosik grunts)
-What are you doing?

Oh, uh...

-That's cold. Wow, that's cold.
-(Wonyong's wife gasps)

-(Moosik grunts)
-Oh, my god.

Okay, let's see.

Damn it, now I'm all wet.

Damn, that's annoying.

-Ugh.
-(annoyed scream)

(all screaming)

(grunts in fear)
Hey, call the police.

-Okay.
-(indistinct talking)

(grunts in annoyance)

Get out!

-Your husband took...
-(sighs)

...somebody else's precious 60 million won
and ran away.

Well, why are you doing this here, then?
Go talk to my husband.

-Come on.
-I came here

because he just cussed at me
when I called him.

-He isn't responding to me, either!
-(breathing heavily)

Seriously?

(indistinct talking)

-(annoyed grunt)
-(whirring)

I'm almost done.

(in an annoyed voice)
Wonyong! Did you borrow 60 million won?

This guy's making a mess at my shop.

WONYONG: What?

Put him on the phone.

Okay.

WONYONG'S WIFE: You can talk to him.

(clatters)

(inhales)
Yes, hello?

Hello, Mr. Park.

WONYONG: You fucking son of a bitch!

The fucker, he's cussing at me again.

WONYONG:
Who the hell do you think you are?

(Wonyong sighs)

I'll send you the money right now,
so send me your account number, okay?

Oh, sure. Thank you, Mr. Park.

You should have done this earlier.

By the way,

if you don't send me the money,
then I'm coming back here.

WONYONG: You can try! You little...

-Okay, sure, sure, sure.
-I'm going to rip you into pieces,

-you son of a bitch!
-Thank you.

Thanks.

Put your pants back on!

I will.

(laughs)

(grunting)

(exclaims)

(grunting)

Yes, Mr. Min.

Park Wonyong should have
sent you 60 million won.

Yeah. You can check it.

Yeah, I just got the notification.

Hey, how on earth did you get that money?

They just gave it to me.

Okay. I'll keep

-making progress.
-(laughs)

All right. Good work.

-MOOSIK: Sure.
-(laughing)

That's impressive.
(laughs)

My apologies.

-Oh, no problem.
-(inhales sharply)

So, what's your job title
at Mindong Construction?

(chuckles awkwardly)

I'm a managing director.

Oh, wow.

Already? You look so young.

-(Chilgu chuckles softly)
-His dad is the CEO.

-(chuckles awkwardly)
-Oh...

Well, what are you planning to do here?

Oh, uh, I'm just here to have fun.

Since you're so young, you should
go out and have some sex.

-(chuckles awkwardly)
-Do some gambling.

(laughs)

Oh, I don't gamble. My father
will kill me if he finds out.

(laughter)

Hey, aren't you a man?

You still care about what your dad thinks?

Uh, I'll just play some golf.
That's what I like to do.

-(Seokjun and Chilgu laughing)
-Ugh.

(laughter)

(grunts, munches)

LEE SUKJA, CHA MOOSIK, SON

Cha Moosik, son.

(Sukja grunts)

(Sukja laughs)

Wow, you're so good at writing now!

I can write poetry now.

Wow, really? Nice!

Eat.

(exclaims happily)

You're a master calligrapher now,
aren't you?

Yeah?

(exclaims)

(breathes deeply)

Wow, that smells great.

(munches)

(exhales)

(smacks lips)

-You're the best. The best.
-(laughs)

-Eat more.
-(exclaims)

Ouch, ouch.

-(grunts)
-Your soybean stew is so good.

-(gulps)
-(laughs lightly)

It's the best.
(groans)

Is it good?

-Mom.
-Yeah.

Remember when we were at...

(inhales)
...the Daejeon street market?

I remember those days.

My goodness. Hey, hey.

You still remember things from back then?

(slurps)

(munching)
Of course. I remember everything.

(chomps)

Some tough days, right?

Hey, Mom, didn't you say you wanted a dog?

Huh? That dog, you know...

(exhales)

(Sukja sighs)

Kyungduk, make sure to eat this
when you get up, okay?

(sighs)

(Sukja inhales)

TEEN MOOSIK: "Finding the grounds
for responsibility..."

MOOSIK: With the money
that I got from Mr. So...

I got a room at a Buddhist temple
to study hard,

and I bought some books
with the remaining money.

Then I studied. I only slept
two or three hours a day.

I took the scholastic achievement test
in November.

COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAM SCHEDULE

I got a score of 282 out of 340,

including the physical exam.

TEST IDENTIFICATION SLIP

With a score like that,

I could have gone
to any university in Seoul.

(breathing deeply)

But then, the carpentry teacher
who became my new homeroom teacher

wasn't interested in college admissions.

He went around selling encyclopedias
as his sideline.

MINGU'S MOTHER: Who is it?

Oh, hello. Does Mingu live here?

The one who goes
to Myeongjin Technical High School?

I'm Mok Kyungchul.

I'm going to be Mingu's homeroom teacher.

-Is Mr. So still on sick leave?
-(Kyungchul breathing heavily)

(exhales)

(grunts)

(in a strained voice)
He quit because he was too ill.

(Kyungchul grunts)

(breathing deeply, grunts)

(groans)

(grunts)

(breathing deeply)

(Kyungchul grunts)

So you want to go to college?

(Kyungchul breathing heavily)

Why do you want to go to college
instead of getting a job?

-(breathing heavily)
-I just want to try it.

(laughing in disbelief)
Wow, look at you.

(grunts)

Hey, everybody else is dying to get a job.

(panting)
College? You must be joking.

(panting continues)

Here, let me see.

(grunts)
My goodness.

KYUNGCHUL: What's this?
Did you really do this yourself?

Yeah.

You cheated, right?

No.

If you didn't,
how did you get these scores?

Hey, how did you get these scores,
especially in a school like ours?

I just worked hard.

Okay, where do you want to go?

Are you kidding me right now?
Are you... Are you kidding me? Huh?

Pick somewhere else
that's easier to get into!

-(grunts)
-(inhales sharply)

CHUNG-ANG UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE APPLICATION

(Kyungchul exclaims mockingly)

You're a lot more stubborn
than you look. A lot more, huh?

Hey, lower your standards more!

(breathes shakily)

To which school?

Daejeon. Get me a school in Daejeon.

(sighs deeply)

(urinating)

You scared me!

(flustered breathing)

Hey! You brat, I...

I told you to come find me later. Ugh.

-You were taking too long, so...
-What?

Like you said,
this one's a school in Daejeon.

And what's the department?

I want to try to get into their Department
of Korean Language and Literature.

My goodness. What?

Hey, look here, okay?

Look. You've been planning wood
and stacking bricks, right?

Apply for the Department of Architecture.
Architecture.

I don't want to major in Architecture.

(Kyungchul grunts)

My god. I just want to smack you!

(clicks tongue)
You're stubborn as an ox, aren't you?

Give me that!

Ugh.

I mean, if you don't want
to study Architecture,

what are you doing
in a technical high school?

Hey, have you lost your mind?

You should be doing something
with what you specialized in.

Korean Language and Literature? Ha!

My goodness.

Hmm.

Hey, how about this one?

Choongam University's Department

of Political Science
and International Relations. Yeah?

What?

Look, look. The cut-off score is 195.

You'll get in for sure. Right?

(sighs)

Hey, you'll get a four-year
scholarship if you go here.

You're way overthinking this.

This is the place.

-(indistinct talking)
-FEMALE FRESHMAN: Really?

(university freshmen murmuring)

-(indistinct talking)
-MOOSIK: Looking back,

my life changed completely
because of that carpentry teacher.

I never managed to adjust to college life.

WOMAN 1: Oh, really?

MOOSIK:
And I didn't go to school that often

because I felt like I was too good
for that.

-WOMAN 2: How much do you need? Yeah.
-WOMAN 1: Really? Wow.

MOOSIK: So, I felt that I'd rather make
some money first.

FEMALE OWNER 1:
What? Is the oil leaking? Huh?

(laughs in disbelief)

Hey, this is not okay.

(in an angry voice)
Hey, you can't rip me off like this!

Hey, don't be like that.

We do so much for you.
We've got to make some profit, you know?

Ugh, my goodness.
Talking is your only talent, isn't it?

They're doing all that

How's the food here?

How is it?

Oh, they're good.

(breathing tearfully)

How's the shop?

I closed the shop.

(smacks lips)
Because things were getting tough.

Why?

Was it because of Dad?

(sighs)

It's not like that.

(angrily)
I mean, why?

Why do you care about that man so much?

-What did he ever do for us?
-(breathing shakily)

(sighs)

He's still your father.

That man isn't my father!
(huffing angrily)

Is he still doing drugs with your money?

That's how he took all your money!

Mom! Come on!

-Hey, just worry about yourself.

Excuse me, sir. C-Could you

-Please, sir.
-Mom...

Let him eat the food

SUKJA: Sir, can't you give it to him?

MOOSIK: Mom probably never thought

that she'd end up
visiting her son in jail.

(Sukja speaking indistinctly)

(Moosik inhales)

She must have felt like
her life was so bizarre.

She had gone through so much
because of her husband,

and now her son was sitting in jail too.
