High Kick! Episode 25

Is the show that interesting?

You're watching yesterday's rerun. Is it that fun to watch?

What, I can't watch a soap opera?

No, I'm not saying that. It's just interesting.

I don't see why you like it so much.

It's fun. It's so fun I'd die without it.

Hey, if it's fun, then good for you.

- Mom. Mom. - What is it?

Goodness. She sticks her nose in everything. I can't even watch what I want in peace.

We were watching the education channel but it keeps shutting down. Look.

All these errors keep popping up. We need a new laptop.

That's strange. There shouldn't be any problems watching the education network.

Did you check for a virus?

It's not a virus. The laptop is just too old. It doesn't have enough memory.

We need a new laptop.

Mom.

Look.

It's the latest model and all the seniors have it.

It's great for online lectures! Beom just got one.

Enough.

If it's slow, increase the buffering on the media player,

and set the network buffering at about 10 seconds.

We did already...It still won't work...

Honey. Is there anything else?

What?

Empty the temporary internet files folder

and set it so you're not using a proxy server.

Also use the disk defragmenter to clean up the hard drive

and check for any malignant codes.

Yes, try all of that.

And if it still doesn't work...

I'll have Dad take a look at it, okay?

Okay or not okay? I don't hear you.

- Okay... - Okay...

I told you it wouldn't work. They're both computer experts.

Man, how long do we both have to use one computer. It's so annoying.

If you just reduced your game playing, we wouldn't fight as much.

Good for you, big brother.

Shoot, should we just get a used one?

- Minho. - Yes?

Beom's grandfather says you can download ringtones off the Internet?

- Yes... - Download one for me.

- Which one? - What?

Since it's winter, how about 'Roasting Chestnuts'?

'The wind is blowing. The wind...' You know it, right?

Okay, I'll look for it.

How much is it to change it?

- For one song... - What is it, $10?

What?

Yes... Usually, but...

The one you want is really old, so it probably costs about $20...

It's that expensive?

Well, set it up for me.

- Okay. - Good.

Nice.

Hey, give me half!

Why? It's mine.

If you don't, I'll tell Grandpa you lied to him.

Grandpa, 'Roasting Chestnuts' is 50 cents!

$20 will buy you all the oldies!

Hey, Grandpa really doesn't have a clue.

How would everyone keep changing their ringtones at $20 a pop?

I can't believe it either.

Wait...

Hey, the laptop...

Should we get Grandpa to buy it?

The wind is blowing. The wind is blowing.

Hey, did you do it? Give it to me.

Grandpa, if you buy a computer, you can do it yourself.

What for? There's one in the study, and I have you two.

Why not? The one we have isn't that great.

You can easily use one of the newer models.

What do I need it for?

Look at this. Grandpa, aren't you always worried about your stocks?

This laptop will automatically earn you money!

How will it do that?

It has a cutting-edge stock predicting program.

It can tell you what will happen 10 minutes from now.

If you buy this, you don't have to keep asking Dad anymore,

and you can become a stock market expert!

Wow, that's great! How awesome!

But I need to know how to use it. It's all so complicated...

You can use the voice recognition software.

Voice recognition software?

Yes, it will do anything you tell it to do!

If you say 'Sewoon Construction,' all the information will come up.

What was that old movie you liked, Grandpa?

If you say 'Roman Holiday,' then, 'Roman Holiday' will appear!

Wow, that's amazing!

All of that is in there?

All you have to do is speak?

Of course. It's the most high-tech almost robot-like computer.

Oh, really?

How much is it? It sounds expensive.

It's not expensive. It's on sale on the home shopping network.

70% off!

How is it 70% off?

You'll never see a chance like this again.

Hey, what was the number?

I'm calling right now. 8-0-0...

So how much is it?

Here, talk to the guy. Hello? Hold on, please.

A courier service will get it here in two hours, Grandpa.

Yes, hello?

Everything she says gets on my nerves. Is it me that's strange?

Not at all. I know what you mean.

She has a way of saying things that grate on your nerves.

She's very condescending.

Exactly, that's it! She's very condescending.

She watches the news, but I'm stupid, so I watch soap operas.

I know. I know it well.

Oh, dear. I feel so much better knowing that you understand!

Honey, let's buy this.

Oh, my.

Isn't that Mother?

It is!

Isn't that Shinji with her? Why are they together?

What in the... I wondered where she went...

Why is she shopping with an ex-daughter-in-law and not me?

I don't know.

Follow me.

Mother.

Oh my goodness.

What are you doing here?

If I'd known you were shopping I would've gone with you.

Long time, no see.

Hello.

Oh, we met here by chance. The neighborhood is so small.

I see.

How have you been?

Am I intruding?

It's fine.

Mom! Hi, Shinji.

When did you get here?

When did you get here, Mom?

Oh, you should stop by, since Jun's at our house.

I don't think it's my place to go there.

Oh, I heard you were conned in Russia. Are you okay?

Yes, well...

You look good.

What were you talking about so happily with Mother?

Well. Mother just has a lot to say.

It seems things at home are stressing her out.

Are you sure you're not bothering her?

If she's stressed out, it's probably because of you.

She's been having a hard time raising your child.

Thank you!

Nice!

Hey, so we tricked him into buying it, but now what do we do?

You take care of it. You're the one who lied.

Okay. We have to scare him so he won't even come near it.

Then it'll be ours.

Since it's a laptop, I can carry it around...

And I won't be caught like last time.

What? What? What?

And now I can see everything I wanted to but couldn't...

If the voice recognition works...

Come on, sexy films! Sexy films!

The world just gets better and better.

Hey, did the laptop come yet?

It did? Okay!

You went after much deliberation, but it just didn't work out.

You can't have everything your way.

You took it too lightly. It's not easy studying abroad.

So, Shinji, where do your parents live?

They live in L.A.

They immigrated a few years ago.

I hear you were in the same club. But did you go to different schools?

Yes. I went to Jingyeong University and majored in musical composition.

What? Where? I didn't hear you.

The Music Composition department at Jingyeong University.

Oh, you're a musician.

Where's Jingyeong University? Is it in the countryside?

No, it's in Seoul's Yangpyeong district.

Really? There's a school by that name?

I guess you didn't study very hard.

Have some tea, Father.

Honey, should we get some beef jerky? Father likes it, too.

Beef jerky? Okay.

It's hard working in the traditional dress, isn't it?

Yes. It's so suffocating I feel like I'm going to throw up.

Throw up? A new bride should speak prettily to have pretty babies.

Oh, that's ridiculous.

Are we done?

Stir-fried Vermicelli okay! Salad okay! Sashimi okay!

Okay, okay. Good!

Honey, food's ready!

Were you a drama major?

No, why?

You're very dramatic.

Okay, okay. Good!

Isn't it silly to be saying that normally?

Mother, you think it's funny, too, right?

I don't know.

Shoppers! We're having a half-price sale in the seafood department.

10 squid for $5.

10 squid for $5. Only for the next five minutes.

A squid sale.

Honey, honey! Let's buy some squid! There's a sale!

Okay!

What's with them?

There are a lot left. We'll give you both fresh bags.

Why are they fighting over squid?

No idea...

Hey, this looks really good.

Try that voice recognition thing.

Oh, that. Hold on a minute.

Here, see the microphone?

Just speak into it.

What do you want to know?

What? Well, me... Stocks!

Then just say the company right into here.

- Over here? - Yes.

Pungjin Pipe!

What? What?

You can't yell and spit into the mic like that!

Is it okay? Is it broken?

Hold on. I have to check it.

Is it infected with a virus?

What? You can't talk like that?

If you spit and talk loudly like that,

the laptop can catch a virus.

If it catches a virus, it's over.

You mean it can catch a virus from my spit?

Exactly. How is it?

Forget it! I think it's already infected.

Great, now what? We just bought it!

You can't use it now? What happened?

I'll find a way to fix it...

Grandpa... You have to be careful with this.

Really? I didn't know. I thought you had to speak loudly.

I better take this into my room.

Isn't it going to take all night?

Well, isn't that something.

So, a human virus can infect a computer...

What do you do then?

Pung...

Pungjin Pipe... Like that? Goodness.

Pungjin Pipe.

Honey, I'm home.

Is no one home?

Did he fix it?

Oh, right!

Sexy films.

Sexy films.

Sexy films. Sexy films. Sexy films.

Why isn't it working?

Sexy movies. Sexy movies.

Sexy movies!

What's wrong with this?

What are you doing, Grandpa?

I just, this...

I just fixed it! It's broken again. Again!

Why is it broken? I didn't spit this time!

What did you do?

Nothing much. I just tested out the voice recognition thing.

What did you say? What did you say?

What?

Did you repeat it? Did you say it over and over?

Answer us, please!

I repeated myself a few times.

Man, I knew it.

Grandpa, the voice recognition software is really sensitive.

It's dangerous if you use it wrong.

How is it dangerous?

If you make a mistake, the laptop could explode!

Explode?

Yes, one spoken word uses a tremendous amount of energy.

If you keep repeating a word, the CPU, motherboard, sound card,

and USB ports send out shocks.

The entire system crashes, and the power system overheats,

resulting in an explosion!

Do you see now? This laptop can cause a blackout in the entire town.

Come on. How can a laptop cause a blackout? That's silly.

No, it isn't!

Didn't you read that article?

A student caused a blackout in Ulsan because he misused his laptop!

The transformer and power supply explodes when a computer crashes.

Be careful. Please, Grandpa.

I didn't know it was so sensitive.

You have to fix it again, don't you?

This is going to take a while.

You con artist, you.

Hey, I bet he'll never come near the computer again, right?

Why is it so sensitive?

It's more complicated than a regular computer. Goodness.

Hello.

Hi, Jun.

Where's Shinji?

I think she's getting dressed. Shinji, Jun's here.

We have to take him for his vaccinations.

I see.

Even if I don't want to see her, I have to because of Jun.

I see.

He needs to get bigger so that I don't have to come here so often.

Why are you making excuses? You don't need to do that.

I just feel like I keep changing my words.

I understand.

Don't.

I'm just not a thoughtful person.

Okay, then I won't. You are pretty thoughtless.

Let's go, Jun!

Jun!

Oh, hey.

We meet again.

Hello.

Where are you two going?

We just went to the pediatrician and we were about to get dinner.

We were on our way to dinner, too. Let's eat together.

Want to?

What's that noise?

It's me.

Hello?

What is this? Oh, it's an ad.

You changed your ringtone. It's nice.

Yeah, I told Minho to get it for me.

I want a new song, too. How much is it?

I gave him $20.

$20? It doesn't cost that much! I heard it's less than $1.

Less than $1? No, it's $10 or $20 a song.

It's not $20. I'm sure she said it was less than $1...

You're just at home, aren't you? What do you live off of?

No, I work.

What kind of work?

I'm very busy. I was just invited to Jeju Island.

She recorded a tangerine commercial.

Tangerines?

- Waitress. - Yes?

The bill, please.

I'll take care of it.

Not at all. I will.

No, I will. Use this, please.

It's fine. Save your money. Take this.

No, use this for the bill.

- Here. - Isn't it too much of a burden?

You can hardly call this a burden.

Well, we can't just take from you. Honey, let's pay for drinks.

We can't. Not with Jun here.

Drop him off with Mother.

It's been so long, we can't just leave it at this.

- Don't you think so, Shinji? - Sure, why not?

You two!

You lied to me, didn't you?

- What? - What?

I thought something was fishy!

Ringtones are 50 cents, and you took $20 from me!

Did you think you could keep fooling me about the laptop?

No. Of course, common songs cost about 50 cents.

But oldies and new hits cost more than $10.

Don't bother.

He's right. Who said that? Who said they're all 50 cents?

Why you little... I thought something was off.

That voice recognition thing sounds strange, too.

How can it be that sensitive?

It's not an ear, it's a machine.

If you don't believe us, yell at it. See what happens!

- What? - Try yelling into it.

But if it explodes and causes a blackout, it's not our fault.

Go ahead. If you really don't believe us.

You have no idea what I went through trying to fix it...

I'm watching you two, got it?

Stop horsing around, you good-for-nothings!

Wait!

We can't just leave. Who wants to go singing?

Singing? No way.

Why not? We've got two singers here.

Amateur Singing Queen! Professional Jingle Singer!

Don't you want to?

- Sure. - Sure.

Where are they? What are they all doing?

Something's not right...

Where are you going?

I can't sleep. Go to bed first.

That makes no sense.

How can this little thing cause a blackout?

Sexy movies.

Sexy movies. Sexy movies. Sexy... Movies...

Mr. Choi! Don't cut that wire!

Sexy! Movies!

It's a blackout! What's going on?

- The entire town is out. - Where are the candles?

Honey! Where are you?

Why is there a blackout all of a sudden? Where's the lighter?

It should be here somewhere...

Do you want to go first?

You go ahead.

Go on.

Hurry up and sit down.

Now.

It's coming on after this. Pay attention.

Shinji's song is coming on, you say?

Yes. It's great. Great.

Oh, stop it. It's embarrassing.

Honey, you come, too.

Here it comes!

- Hey, it's a pig feet ad. - It's a pig feet ad.

- Good job. - That sounds good.

What is it?

No. No. It's a good song.

Your singing talents are great.

It's nice.

Our Shinji here is a real singer.

You sing well.

That's right. You're a professional, aren't you?

Didn't you record commercials?

Let's have a listen.

Since the mood is so dead, I'll try to liven things up.

Let's get things started, one, two, three, four! Father!

Dear Father,

My one of a kind Mother,

Dear aunts and uncles, I love you

A world without you all, is completely meaningless

Please don't go Please don't go

Please don't leave me here

Who picked this song?

No one's singing so I just put it in for whoever.

- I was going to sing it. - I was going to sing it.

Sing it together! A duet!

The key was too low!

What's with them?

That sounds horrible.

Good night, Shinji. It was good seeing you.

Goodbye.

- I'm going to take her home. - Okay.

I'm fine. Just go.

Honey, aren't you even going to say bye?

Taxi! Taxi!

Taxi...

A mysterious blackout struck the Dongjak district last night,

inconveniencing many citizens.

What? Was there a blackout at our house?

[ Next Episode ]

Bravo.

I like you.

Pardon?

- Let's date. - What?

There's something about his eyes. He has the eyes of a pervert.

Boss!

I want to take back that I said I'd date him!

Make him break up with you. That's your safest bet.

Stop bothering my woman!

Oh, we're dead. Run!

Hey, don't drink too much.

I won't. I'm just going to grab dinner.

This is fun, isn't it?
