High Kick! Episode 28

Haemi.

- Do you have $50? - Why?

I need it for something. I forgot to go to the bank.

What's it for? It's fine, but I'm just curious.

Well, I borrowed $50 from Hyejun's mom yesterday...

You lost it playing cards, didn't you?

Didn't you? Why do you keep playing when you lose?

It's bad for your eyes and your back. Nothing good comes of it...

Who said I was playing cards? Who said I lost anything?

- Then? - Oh, forget it.

Mother, what about the money?

Forget it!

She never does anything without getting her two cents in.

Yadda yadda, jibber jabber...

When did he come home?

- Where are you going? - To see Hyejun's mother.

Wait...

You!

Why are you hitting me?

You little hoodlum! You took my money, didn't you?

What? What money? I don't know what you're talking about.

Of course you do. This isn't the first time.

Grandpa, I really don't know!

Did you think I wouldn't know? Where is my $50?

At this rate, you're going to end up in jail...

Oh my, what's this?

My goodness...

Where did this...

Lee Yunho!

Where did you put the money? Where?

I'm telling you, it wasn't me!

Lee Yunho.

Mom, help me. Grandpa...

What are you doing watching pornography on the laptop?

What?

Could I step in?

Come with me, you ingrate!

Do you think that's what Grandpa bought you the laptop for?

What pornography? I don't watch that stuff.

Then was it your brother?

Who else would watch something like that?

I can only take so much. She drives me crazy.

You should tell them to move out.

If not for Junha, I would have a long, long time ago.

It's because of him that I have to live like this.

Hello.

Hello. I was visiting a friend here so I dropped by.

You're home early.

It's Saturday. Stay as long as you'd like.

She's Minho and Yunho's homeroom teacher, right?

She seems very nice and friendly.

That's why Minyong likes her.

What? Really?

Ask him.

How long are you two going to be like this? What about Jun?

I forgot I have a call to make. I'll be just a moment.

Kids these days...

Oh, hey.

Why are you crying? What's wrong?

What?

Oh, no. So they ran away with the money?

That's horrible.

You know I have no money. I only get an allowance.

How much do you need? $3,000?

Yes, that's right.

Would you hold for a second?

Are you leaving?

No, I was... Do you have any money?

Money? How much?

About $3,000... It's an emergency.

I don't have that kind of money. Mother, you know that.

I know. I figured you didn't. Go on.

I have no one to borrow from.

My family would never lend me any money.

Hold on a second.

Excuse me, Miss Seo?

Yes? Would you like some coffee?

Oh, no, no...

Could I borrow some money?

Money?

It's an emergency... I can pay you back in one week.

How much?

$3,000...

$3,000?

No, right? Well...

I'll lend it to you.

- Really? - Yes.

Wow, I never dreamed you would say yes so easily.

I have a bit of a cushion right now. Would you like me to wire transfer it?

Yes, that would be good. Thank you. Thank you very much.

- I'll pay you back in one week. - Okay.

Ten days later

That's strange. Why isn't she picking up?

Jun's Grandmother

I don't even know her well. It's already three days late...

Where would I get money now?

Miss Seo

Miss Seo She's been calling non-stop...

Figure something out soon...

5 Missed Calls

Oh, forget it. I'll deal with it later.

Hey, go eat lunch.

What a picture.

The self-proclaimed King of Pungpa.

Would girls still like you after seeing you like this?

How come you're not here yet? I have to go out now.

Something came up and I'm in Gangnam. Try calling my mother.

You should've told me earlier! You're so considerate. Really!

Hi, Mother. It's me.

Minyong was supposed to pick up Jun, but something came up.

Is it okay if I drop him off on my way out?

Yes. Yes.

Were you just talking to Jun's grandmother?

Yeah. Why?

I've been calling her, but she won't pick up.

Why are you calling her?

She borrowed money from me. It's been over 10 days.

If I had known, I would have stopped you.

Good luck getting it back.

Why?

She's well-known for not having money and for not paying you back.

Why doesn't she have money? She's a doctor's wife.

That she is, but... She has no economic freedom.

She lost the family savings once so now she gets an allowance.

Not only that, Haemi always checks up on her expenses. Her hands are tied.

I bet she doesn't even have $100.

What do I do then?

Her not picking up says something.

Don't be a pushover. You have to be assertive.

If you're not, I bet you won't see that money this year.

Hey, Seunghyun, look at this! Look!

I was looking at Yunho's blog. This is funny. Check this out!

My True Self

Is he crazy? Why would he put these on his blog?

Should I copy and paste it and send it to everyone we know?

What? That's stupid...

- Go for it. - Yeah? Okay.

Who is it?

Who are you?

Honey, we have a guest.

Who?

Hello.

She brought Jun.

Shinji was busy, so I brought him.

Oh... I see...

She's Minho and Yunho's homeroom teacher. I didn't know.

Oh? I told Mrs. Lee before...

She never told me. When did you ladies meet?

Oh. She came over before. I lent her some...

Tea...

What would you like? Something to drink? Green tea? Coffee?

Green tea, please.

Before, what?

Oh, I lent her some...

What's wrong with you?

I lent her some money. About $3,000...

Stop it. Be quiet! Open your mouth and you'll regret it.

What are you doing? I can't hear. Let go!

Let go!

She's already gone.

Woman, are you crazy? What's wrong with you?

What is it? What happened? What did she say?

Something's going on, isn't it? Hey, open the door.

I was going to give it to you soon. You didn't have to come over!

I'm sorry. You wouldn't answer my calls...

Please don't come to the house.

If my family finds out, it will be bad for me.

Okay. I won't go to your house.

Unless you're trying to kill me, don't talk about money, either.

Well, he asked...

Don't say anything about money, no matter what.

If my family finds out I borrowed money, they'll kick me out.

Okay. I won't bring up money.

Fine, then.

But... When can I expect to get paid back?

I'll get it to you soon. Okay?

It's just that I need it now.

I said I'll get it to you soon.

Hello?

But when is 'soon'?

What the...

Why won't you let me sleep?

Have you lost your mind? What happened to you?

'King of Pungpa'? Yeah, right.

Yunho, is something wrong?

What is all this?

It must be something on my blog...

What the... What is this!

Hey, you're up. Sleepyhead.

- Did you do this? - What?

They're good, right? I couldn't keep them to myself.

You're dead!

Do you want to die? Who said you could put those up?

Grandpa, save me! Grandpa!

Why you little...

You little punk, get over here. How dare you beat on your brother?

He always does this! Grandpa!

Let go of me! That freak. He has to pay.

That freak? Don't call your brother a freak!

You need to watch your language!

Why do you only yell at me? He started it!

He's the one who put pictures of me up on the Internet.

Yunho! Did you hit your brother again? I told you to stop that!

Why do you only yell at me? That freak always...

That freak? Why I ought to...

You just get worse and worse. Why must you be like this?

Why is it always me? Why?

He started it! Why is it always my fault? Why?

What's going on?

Why only me? Why do you always take his side?

- Who's taking sides? - You are!

You don't even listen. You just start hitting me!

And I didn't take money, but you hit me anyway!

I didn't watch porn, but I get hit!

And he's the one who bothered me, but I get hit again!

- Who else would watch the porn? - But you took the money.

No, I didn't! No, I didn't! It really wasn't me!

Yunho. Where are you going?

Must you do that?

You're attacking the kid. Why do you assume it's him?

Who's assuming? He did it. He just doesn't want to admit it.

He's probably like that because he didn't do it. Stop playing favorites.

I'm not playing favorites. He's being a troublemaker.

You do play favorites. You too, Father.

Stop it, please.

Yunho's a person, too.

Yunho!

Who said he wasn't?

He was fast asleep. Why is he getting involved now?

Addresser - Pungpa High School Addressee - Lee Yunho's Parents

What's this?

Did Yunho run away?

He didn't run away... He probably went to an Internet cafe.

I'm home.

This is from the school.

Give it to your sister-in-law.

What is it?

We didn't send out any notices. I don't know what it is, either.

Yunho probably did something wrong again, didn't he?

I need my reading glasses.

You read it.

Dear Parents, Regards from Pungpa High School.

Finals are over and the end of the year is approaching.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and generous support throughout the year.

To ensure students don't lose their zeal for learning during the break,

I hope you will provide guidance and direction for them.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

It's just a greeting letter.

Wow... Miss Seo's got it together. She's so thoughtful...

P.S.

P.S. Mrs. Lee, when will you return what you borrowed?

Please let me know the exact date. Miss Seo Minjung

What's the P.S.? I can't see. Read it out loud.

- It's nothing. - Why are you crumpling it up?

It's nothing.

Yunho did something, didn't he? Didn't he? Give it to me.

Oh, it's nothing like that.

Then what is it? Mom.

What are you doing?

Your Mother isn't showing us what Yunho's homeroom teacher sent.

He must've done something wrong

- What is it? Please give it to me. - What is it, Mom?

- I'm telling you, that's not it! - Please let me have it.

It's nothing at all.

What are you doing? Why are you eating it?

Give it to me! Spit it out!

- Mother, what are you doing? - Mom.

I told you it's nothing...

What's wrong with that woman? What is it? What is she hiding?

Hey, kiddo. Are you disappointed?

I know exactly how you feel.

I was hurt by Grandpa because he used to favor your uncle.

Why do I always get the blame? Why only me?

Hey, Lee Yunho.

Don't cry. Keep your head up. You'll be fine!

I'm here for you.

Lean on me! I'll take care of you.

Dad.

Come in, come in.

Where did you go?

Stop bothering your brother for no reason. Got it?

What?

Dad...CroCop's fighting tonight...

Then we better watch it! Put it on!

Hey, I was watching!

Go watch it somewhere else.

Hey, it's on, it's on! Dad!

You like it that much?

Of course! Check out those high kicks!

Why isn't she talking?

What could it be? Confound it.

Dad, look at that. Isn't it awesome?

Hey...

Dad...

Come on, Father.

I have to watch the news.

Yunho was watching something.

Father!

What?

What is it?

Keep it down or go somewhere else.

Dad...

Let's go to my room.

What?

It comes out better here.

Okay...

This is nice and comfy, isn't it?

Don't you two look cozy? When did you come home?

Watch it in the living room. I need to sleep.

What's the big idea? We were watching!

I was up early writing my thesis. I need to get some sleep.

Woman! Why are you...

Dad...

Go sleep somewhere else.

Hey, do you not hear me?

Let's go!

What?

- Let's watch it here. It's most... - Stay out.

Oh, what is it now?

Mom! Mom, open the door. Open the door!

Mom! Mom!

Hey, be quiet. You're being too loud.

Dad, we don't have to watch it.

I'm hungry. Let's eat something.

Hello, Miss Seo? I got your letter!

Oh, did you? Then, when can I...

I told you not to write! What's wrong with you?

Didn't you tell me not to visit?

That's the same thing! Don't contact me! I'll call you!

Oh, it does?

And, I told you not to mention money to my family!

You promised you wouldn't!

But I didn't. I just asked when you would return...

You can tell what you're talking about very clearly!

Are you deaf? Why don't you listen?

I'm sorry I misunderstood.

I'll call you soon.

Well, how soon is that?

I said I'll call you!

She's unbelievable!

Does she really not get it, or is she pretending not to?

She's going to be the end of me. She's a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Man... she still hasn't said when she's going to pay me back.

We'll roast the garlic. Take out the lettuce.

I'll make you the same wine-marinated pork they serve in restaurants.

Sounds good.

We need to marinate the meat first...

I'll go get the wine. Why don't you heat the pan?

Okay.

Move. I need the stove.

Go ahead. There's plenty of room.

I need this one.

- Dad... - What's wrong?

Mom, what are you doing?

I'm making beef-foot soup. Why?

Do it later. Yunho's cooking right now.

I already ordered the meat. It's supposed to be here soon.

It has to simmer all night. Go do it somewhere else.

Mom, why are you being like this? Mom!

Don't start with me! I'm upset as it is!

Let's go to my study.

Hey, doesn't it seem like we're on a camping trip?

Sure...

This room is for my private use. Stretch out and relax. Go ahead.

Yeah, it's nice.

- What's that sound? - What is that? What is it?

You idiot, what are you doing?

Now what? This is my room! Stay out!

You set off the smoke detector with your cooking.

- What? - Oh, look at all the smoke.

Clear it out, quickly! Oh, my goodness...

What do you think you're doing? Are you trying to set fire to the house?

Get it out of here now! Get it out now!

Hurry, clear it out.

It's freezing. Now look what you've done.

Open all the windows!

We're having dinner soon. You couldn't wait just a little bit?

How about we barbecue outside?

Dad. We can eat something else.

What do you mean? You said you wanted it.

What should we have for dinner?

Get in.

Dad, it's really okay.

Come on, I know you want it.

Let's go cook it at the park. There's nothing like it. Get in.

Honey, give me the car keys.

- Why? - Minho's late for his academy.

We're going to the park. What are you doing?

He's late for tutoring! Minho, hurry and get in!

Okay.

You've got to be kidding me! Give me back the keys!

Dad...

Then at least drop us off! Yunho, get in!

We're late. Take the bus!

Let's walk... It's good exercise... What do you think?

Sounds good...

Where are you going?

To get my money.

Are you going to barge in again?

She said she'd kill me if I do. I can't call or write letters either.

Then what are you going to do?

I have my methods...

Oh, Miss Seo?

Oh, hello.

What are you doing here?

Nothing.

Are you here to see me?

No. Don't worry about me. Have a good night.

Minyong, go outside for a second.

Why?

Minho's homeroom teacher is there.

What? Why?

I don't know. She won't say.

I invited her in, but she declined.

Maybe she's here to see you.

She should just call. What is she doing outside?

Miss Seo!

- Mr. Lee! - What are you doing here?

Did something happen?

- No. - Then why are you here?

Don't worry about me.

But what are you doing here?

Don't worry about me.

Why is she here?

She won't say. She's just standing there.

I don't...

What is she doing there at this time?

What's the matter? Bring her in.

She won't come in. She won't say why, either.

What's wrong with her? She's driving me crazy...

Yunho, it's nice and cool out here, right?

Yeah...

Hey... It's snowing, Dad.

I guess we can't cook...

Why not? We can cover it.

Dad. It's okay. We can eat something else, Dad.

Why?

Let's eat this. You said you wanted it.

If I can't do this little thing for you...

Dad...

Why is my life so pathetic?

Yunho.

I... I'm over 40 years old...

And I can't do anything I want to in my own home.

I...

Dad...

Dad, don't cry. Keep your head up. You'll be fine.

You've got me right here. Lean on me, Dad!

Yunho!

Is it snowing?

Yeah. But, Mom, Miss Seo is standing outside.

Still? What in the world is she doing out there? How long has it been?

But she won't say anything.

Hello.

- Hey, Beom. - Hey.

What's Miss Seo doing outside She's a human snowman.

That woman...

Honey, give me money.

What for?

I need it! Give me $3,000.

What? $3,000?

That's no chump change. What do you want all that for?

At this time of night?

You can do what you want later. I don't care. Just give it to me, now!

Give me the money, now!

Miss Seo! Here. Here's the money. Here!

Oh, my. You don't have to give it to me now.

What are you talking about? Just take it and go. Take it!

Stop driving me insane. Please just take it.

Oh, I had no intention of making you feel pressured.

And I didn't mean to come visit your house, either.

And I never said anything to your family about money.

Okay, okay.

Thank you a thousand times over. Just take it and go. Go.

Please, here, here!

Well, if you insist... Thank you very much.

My goodness... Is she for real?

[ Next Episode ]

You're going to take your bike and cut class, aren't you?

Don't ride that bike!

Catch me if you can.

Miss Seo.

It has been subpar these days, Mom.

Why is this so sweet?

Oh, this is salty.

What do I do?

I won't stand for it!

I'm going to pickle some gimchi.

- Mom! - Minyong.

Minyong!
