Thank you for coming to see Waikiki Brothers until now.

Due to unexpected circumstances, this will be our last time performing.

[Waikiki Brothers]

Ulleung Island?

I'm not sure.

No, it's just far.

Yes.

Where?

Suanbo?

No, besides there...

Yes. Regardless, Suanbo is out.

Yes.

I'm finally sober now.

Say...

How about going to Ulleung Island?

- Is there a job for us there? - Yes.

And how's the pay?

You know this industry is in a slump lately.

I'm not going.

I'm tired of getting seasick.

Plus the girls there aren't hot.

You punk.

Is that all you can think about?

Nobody goes there besides during the summer.

Why are you always on my case?

Whatever, I'm not going.

Isn't there another place, Hyung?

For the sixth Miss Pepper Contest,

let me introduce the six beautiful girls who got into the finals.

Give them a warm round of applause, please.

In the first round, contestant number six showed us that she's an amazing dancer.

Could you dance for us again for the final round?

Let's give her another round of applause!

♪ Why are you so sorrowful ♪

♪ The day I left my single mother and got married ♪

♪ Only the bird's singing ♪

Great job.

- Thank you. - Yes, thank you.

Thank you. Please help yourselves.

Seriously?

If we divide it three ways, it'll be nothing.

Three? There are four of us.

It's okay. I didn't play today anyway.

Three or four, it doesn't matter. After paying the expenses, we'll have nothing.

Construction workers get paid better.

What's with the mood?

Come on, have a drink.

Hey, stop drinking.

I'm not drunk, I'm okay.

Kang Soo, that's enough. You had a lot to drink.

I said I'm all right!

Hyung, what happened to us?

For the love of music, we put up with a lot of shit up to now.

But we lost three out of seven of us.

Why the hell do we have to be here in this shit hole?

Damn it!

Every time he's drunk, he jabbers nonsense.

Hey, Kang Soo!

Wake up! Get it together!

Bands have it hard these days, huh?

We're all struggling.

Bands did well back in the day.

But ever since karaoke rooms, bands became obsolete.

You played in a band before?

I played with Sung Woo in Daejeon for a year.

I knew you were different from other drivers.

You seem like a guy who knows about art.

How much do you make a month doing this?

You want to be a driver?

Don't even think about it! I can barely make enough money for gas.

Hey, do you remember this singer?

She performed before us at the Emperor Club in Jeonju.

- The Emperor Club? - You know, Song Jae Hee.

You're right.

Oh, right!

Do you remember that big pimp who played with her?

I got this scar because of him.

I might have died if Kang Soo wasn't there.

She must've swindled a rich man since then.

How much is it?

Damn expensive for a bootleg.

What are you saying?

Of course, it's real!

What are you doing?

I've given it a lot of thought.

You guys go without me.

What?

I'm going to Busan.

Come on, Hyung.

If half the clubs in Seoul are closed, it'll probably be worse in Busan.

I need to think about my kids.

How will you make a living in Busan?

All you know is how to be a musician, so you have to stick with us.

Don't let us down too!

Okay then.

Call me if you change your mind.

Let's go already! The sun's setting!

The unemployment situation in Korea is still not improving...

Gosh, the air's really fresh.

That's the only thing we're known for here.

Oh, it's great.

Hey, don't fidget around as if you know something.

I do!

Just carry the bags in, idiot.

- Is that an amusement park? - Hey, Jjangu!

Yes, that's the palgakjeong.

The view is amazing there.

That's nice.

Let's give Nu Hoon Ah a round of applause!

Next is a great band born right in this town.

Let me introduce the Waikiki Brothers.

The Beatles of night clubs. The best band south of the Han River.

They even have the same name as this club.

Waikiki Brothers!

Call.

Fold.

Flush!

Damn it.

Hey, take a look.

- Full house, suckers. - Shit.

You went all in, right? Sit out now.

Why?

I'll be back.

This isn't the last day. Don't bet your life away.

I said I'll be right back!

All right then.

Hey!

Shit.

Hey, lend me some money, kid.

I don't have any.

Come on, I'll pay it back on the next payday.

Did you play poker with the manager again?

That guy's a shark.

He always empties musicians' pockets on payday.

You talk too much.

- Lend me some! - I don't have money.

- Come here. - I have nothing!

Lend me some.

Okay, fine. I'll lend you money.

But on one condition.

Okay, what?

Sorry. Do you live near here?

No, I came to see my family.

You're married?

But you look like a college student.

I already have a five-year-old son.

You have a child too?

Wow! But you look so young.

Oh, he's so cute.

Hey, kiddo.

My son's probably this big.

You have a son too?

Of course. I'll show you a picture.

Oh, okay.

He still looks like a baby.

- Isn't he handsome? - Yes.

Let's go.

Kang Soo.

- Hey, Kang Soo! - What?

Watch this kid for me.

- Who is he? - That's not important.

About 30 minutes. No, just one hour, okay?

See you.

Hey! Hey!

Damn it.

Play over there.

Hey, stop!

Catch me if you can.

I'm sorry, sir.

- Are you okay? - Yes.

- Chungju High School? - Yes.

- Which class are you in? - I'm in the 55th.

Is Mr. Cho, the bald history teacher, still there?

No, he's not.

I'm sorry, sir.

Sung Woo?

Kang Sung Woo.

Right, I heard you studied pharmacy.

That's right.

I was on my way to see your father and ask about you.

It's so nice to see you again.

You should've kept in touch. Nobody around here knew what you were up to.

I've been back for ten years since being discharged.

Wow, has it been that long?

So what are you up to?

Me?

You're not leaving soon, right?

- It's been so long since we all gathered. - Tell me about it.

This really takes me back.

I'm so glad to see you.

Me too.

How come you never kept in touch?

What were you doing?

- You haven't changed at all. - Sure I have.

Remember, he's an artist.

Oh, right!

That was "NEW Everything in the World" by the Chungju Boys.

Next is "I Love Rock 'n Roll" by the Chungju High School Girls.

Give them a big round of applause!

Soo Chul, weren't you a little loud at the concert?

- The girls got to him. - You seemed really excited.

I never played in front of girls.

My hands were shaking on the strings too.

I played too hard and pressed the wrong keys on the keyboard too.

Excuse me.

Hello.

I'm Kang Sung Woo from Chungju High School.

We performed in the same event yesterday.

I know.

I have tickets to the concert next week at Citizen's Hall.

Do you want to go together?

Sorry, but I already have someone to go with.

I can go, right?

So what did she say?

That's the girl from yesterday, right?

Man, those guys were cool.

They were awesome!

- Did you see the bass player? - The bassist?

- His pose was amazing. - The drummer was cooler!

The keyboardist was the cool one.

But that one drum beat.

- Get real! - Let's go!

- Sung Woo, hurry up! - Come on.

Wasn't it too loud?

No way!

Teacher, do you want to go again at six?

- Let's see something quieter. - Come on.

- Aren't you hungry? - Let's get tteokbokki.

- Sir! - Please.

Is this a friend of yours?

Not really. He goes to Chungju High School.

Say hello. He's our music teacher.

Hello.

- Let's go, sir. - Let's go.

Do you want tteokbokki or bread?

- Tteokbokki! - I want bread.

How come you guys go wild every time you see a concert?

You wild fools.

Damn, we were on a roll.

Sung Woo, come here and sit down.

Drink.

It's a miracle cure for heartaches.

How's your girl problems?

You know with women, the more you chase them the more they'll run away.

♪ While walking on Chungmuro Street ♪

♪ Under the spring rain ♪

I like Oxen '80 much more.

Their music is too loud.

I really don't want to go to school tomorrow.

Don't forget about music class tomorrow.

You know I'll never skip your class.

What period is it?

Fifth, I think.

What are you doing?

Why are you so drunk and crazy?

Please just go ahead, sir.

Just go. I'm sorry.

Hey, are you out of your mind?

What's this?

A song I wrote.

Did you even learn how to make music?

I just wrote what I felt.

Okay, give it.

I have to go in.

Oh, hello!

How's it going?

- Hello. - Hello.

That guy on the drums was awesome.

You think we can be like those guys?

Hey, dude.

They're not the Rolling Stones or Queen.

But your dream is to be a lame band like them?

Let's practice.

Okay.

Cut the power! Cut it!

Hey, turn off the power!

- Where's the circuit breaker? - Hurry up and bring water first!

Bring the bucket!

Damn it.

Hey, I told you to be careful.

Why is it my fault?

The bass amp caught on fire.

If you had hurried, it would've burned less.

Excuse me.

Come see our group play tonight.

- A band? - Yes.

That's not you.

That band just plays dance music.

Come later tonight. We'll show you some real music.

What's the name of your band?

Waikiki Brothers.

Come see us later tonight.

Why did you call us a dumb name like Waikiki?

It's better than Chungju High Boys.

Waikiki Brothers.

Doesn't it sound cool?

When you think of Waikiki, it reminds you of the beach.

A white yacht sailing by.

And beautiful blonde women in bikinis walking under palm trees.

Hey.

Come on.

Hello.

Where you going?

Sit down.

You're pretty. What school are you from?

- Gangneung Trade School. - Gangneung?

Gangneung has nice beaches, so why come all the way here?

We're bored with that place.

Are you the band on that poster?

Yes, you have good eyes.

Hey, give me your guitar.

Soo Chul.

Go get something to eat.

Where are your manners in front of these pretty girls?

Hurry up and come back.

Where are you going?

Isn't this too much?

What?

Why do you have to crash our party?

- Be cool. - Let go of me!

I don't care if he's your older cousin. This isn't right!

We've been treating you kids well, but you're going to disrespect us now?

- I'm not disrespecting you. - Hold up.

You talk a lot for a little shit.

Please don't fight.

Why did you hit me, why?

What the hell. You rude little shit!

- Min Soo! - Are you okay?

You bastard!

Cut it out.

Hey, what's the matter with you?

♪ You're my lady ♪

Min Soo.

Why are they so serious?

Those two?

Ever since In Gi came here to fight for some environmental cause,

they haven't gotten along.

Not to mention Soo Chul works for the city's construction department.

It's not right.

If they're friends, they should help each other out.

But instead, those punks fight each other.

Stupid idiots.

Listen.

Can't you cancel the protest tomorrow?

You know very well that's impossible.

The higher ups keep pressuring me.

It's impossible, so let's not talk about it anymore.

Then how about the route?

Lead them to the intersection, instead to City Hall.

If it's a golf course or love motel, of course I'd be against it too.

But hot springs are helpful for this city's economy.

Soo Chul, I'm tired. I only slept three hours last night.

I'm going.

Stand up for your rights!

- Revise the law for hot springs! - Revise!

Reckless development destroys our beautiful land!

Destroys the land!

All citizens, unite and prevent the springs!

Get out of here.

Hurry and let's go!

Go where?

Get off.

I said, get off!

Hurry up!

You're exhausting.

It's not like I borrowed millions.

We made a promise as men, remember?

Get off.

You bird brain.

Step on the bass.

Got it?

Why do you want to learn this?

You'll starve later if you start this now.

How will you play both the drums and keyboards?

To be a musician, I'll have to learn the keyboards.

But I always wanted to play the drums.

Listen to me carefully.

I didn't want to learn to read notes when I was young, so I played the drums.

But do you know how much I regret it now?

Anyway, I think the drummer is the coolest on stage.

You know, when they do this...

Gentle! They break.

I should learn this.

How do you make a drum sound?

Hey! You'll piss Jung Suk off.

Starting today, I'll set you up for sure.

Just tell me which girl, okay?

Hey.

Stop doing that. It's starting to get on my nerves.

What did I do?

When you turn up your drum machine, my drums get drowned out.

Nobody could hear my drums earlier because of you.

If that's what you want, leave and be a one-man karaoke show.

Oh, come on.

Customers come to dance, not to appreciate music.

Don't overdo it!

You can't control yourself when young girls come.

Come on!

Then what about you? Why did you sing that awful chorus?

How was it awful? I used to be a vocalist too!

A vocalist?

If you're a vocalist, I'm fucking Elvis.

You shit...

How can you be so strong for a woman?

You think I'll ever be as strong as you?

What do you need tomorrow?

Do you have water parsley?

I don't need any.

Just some chives and fresh cucumbers.

- How much for the potatoes? - Forget it.

How about a beer instead?

Give us two beers, Ahjumma.

Wait, who's this?

In Hee?

Yes, it's me. Cho In Hee.

It's been too long.

How many years has it been?

You know him?

Of course.

He liked me so much. He used to chase me around.

He seemed like a shy guy, but I knew he really wasn't.

The quiet ones are the wildest.

It's true, I tell you.

Happy birthday to Jin Hyun Sook from Namsan, who turned 24 today.

But are you really 24?

I thought you were 18.

Didn't we go to school together?

It's me Hyun Sook, the class clown.

The next group on stage is our house band.

Good going, Kang Soo.

Please have some more.

No thanks, I had a lot.

Did we come all the way here just to drink?

Then what should we do?

Do you want to go somewhere else?

Do I have to spell everything out?

Just give me a drink, so I can get drunk.

Excuse me.

I'd like a body scrub.

Hello?

Yes. Okay then.

Jung Suk isn't back yet, right?

He never comes in this early.

- That bastard. - What's going on?

This is the last straw! I'm going to kill him!

Kang Soo!

That feels so good.

How can you be so smooth?

Is your hand really human?

Come on...

Who the hell is this?

That tickles.

Come on, stop it.

Oh no, I'm dead!

What's wrong?

Put your clothes on.

- Why? - Hurry!

Kang Soo's looking for us.

I'm not his wife. Why do I have to run?

You don't know him. When he gets angry, he loses his mind.

- Hurry up and get dressed. - What a joke.

We never met today, okay?

You fucking jerk!

What's with you?

Today is your last day!

Kang Soo, what's with you?

What's wrong?

You don't know, you son of a bitch?

Come here, asshole!

Stop, you asshole!

Son of a bitch!

Stop.

Hey! Stop right there.

Stop. Come here.

Son of a bitch!

You bastard.

- Son of a bitch. - Kang Soo, cool it.

Kang Soo!

What's going on this late at night? Stop it!

You bastard.

Whenever I try to get a girl,

you fuck it up every time!

That girl from Sokcho and Ms. Kim from Daegu too.

How can you call yourself my friend, you fucking bastard?

I really don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

Come here, you shit!

You fucker!

Excuse me, sir.

Do I know you?

You're Mr. Woo Byung Joo, right?

Yes, I am.

I'm Sung Woo. Kang Sung Woo. I studied guitar with you.

Oh, yes.

How have you been?

Where are you coming from?

Just work.

I didn't know you were here this whole time.

Why are you going through my wallet?

Give me the rest.

What?

What did you promise me before?

I only smoked one.

- Really? - Yes.

I'm this high just because it's been a while.

You're telling the truth, right?

Why can't you trust me?

You can have that girl.

I don't need anyone.

I don't need women. I don't need money either.

And I'm tired of music too.

Take everything you want.

He's digging his own grave.

He's digging it deep.

Hey, get in!

Where are you going?

If you have time, let's go for a drive.

Sounds good.

I was thinking about giving you a call.

Don't you have to work?

Prices are up today, so there's nothing to buy or sell.

Now that you're a man, you're not a bad date.

Where should we go?

I don't know.

But is this okay with your husband?

Hey, I know a good place for trout.

Let's go there.

These bastards are always so sneaky.

Excuse me, you violated the speed limit.

Your driver's license, please.

Wait, are you Officer Kim?

- Noona. - It's been too long.

How's your baby, Mansoo? I haven't seen him since his first birthday.

He's running around now.

I'm sure. Your sister calls often, right?

Yes.

But Noona, you were speeding.

Don't be ridiculous. Do you think I'm rich selling vegetables?

- I'm going. - Wait, you can't...

Of course, I can.

- Say hi to your sister for me! - No...

Wow, you haven't changed at all.

This is the best thing about living in a small town.

When I heard you were married, I thought it was to that music teacher.

No way. I just had a crush on him.

But back then was the highlight of my life.

So who did you marry?

You don't know him.

Just someone from my neighborhood.

I see.

What's he doing now?

My husband?

He passed away.

How?

Car accident.

Do you have a kid?

I have a son, but he's with my mother-in-law.

She won't let me see him in fear that he'll get hurt.

She said she'll raise him, so I can get married again.

Hey, give me a cigarette.

Get out!

Shithead!

What's wrong with you?

I'll go ahead and make the Ham Bomb.

Take the ham and slice it crosswise.

If you slice it like this it bursts like a bomb when you put it in the broth.

Or like a flower bud. That's why it's Ham Bomb Kimchi Jjigae.

Okay then, I'll stir-fry the kimchi first.

So what did the manager say?

What happened?

Let's just sleep.

Tomorrow's problem is for tomorrow.

Let's sleep.

They're so pathetic.

How's that a band?

Losers.

I knew that band would end up this way.

Sir.

Actually, I can play the drums.

Should I go up there?

You good-for-nothing shit!

Did you fix the bathroom yet?

Fasten your tie properly.

And get some new glasses.

That's the stage.

And over there...

Hey.

Who's this?

He's the new member I told you about.

The new member is this old man?

What a joke.

We're better off with Kang Soo.

My teacher is fully capable...

Nobody gives a crap.

I can't believe this is happening.

There's no time. Can he start without practicing?

He has a lot of experience, so there's no need to worry.

Just my luck.

Take the old man to get a haircut.

Tell him no. I'm done with the stage.

The club is in big trouble! The old man in the band passed out.

You know the manager's temper.

Can't you see I'm busy?

Fake?

Fake?

Yes, I'm fake.

Frankly, if the real Young Ja came here, you couldn't drink for only 28,000 won.

Oh! When did you get here?

Just now.

I sometimes come here whenever I feel stuffy.

Then afterwards, I feel better for a few months.

You're still a good singer.

You must be kidding. My voice is rusty now.

Come on in.

Try our beef soup.

It's really delicious. Come on in.

The more you eat kimchi, the better it is for you.

So I hope you'll buy as much as you can.

Up next was going to be your favorite singer, Na Hoon Ah.

But he couldn't make it, so instead...

Here's the almost as famous...

Nu Hoon Ah!

That's not Nu Hoon Ah.

Really?

There are more Na Hoon Ah look-a-likes than I thought.

Sir.

Sir!

Are you all right?

I'm okay.

You should see a doctor tomorrow.

Sung Woo, do me a favor.

Get me a bottle of soju.

Sir...

I need to kill the pain.

I'll feel better after a drink.

My mother, aunt, and I, were waiting for the ship to escape to the south.

It was cold and the ship didn't come.

Suddenly, my mother went back home to fill up the water jar.

Please take it easy.

And suddenly the ship arrived after she left and I never saw her again.

And then I got separated from my aunt too.

I've had a hard life.

It must be time for me to die.

What are you doing here?

I heard the old man's sick, so I brought some bone broth.

Did he go somewhere?

He's too sick to go out though.

- Come in. - Okay.

Besides the old man, I'm worried about you too.

Why do you live alone like this?

It's just how it is in this field.

Are you eating all right? Your cheeks have sunken in.

You sure have changed a lot.

What's changed?

You know...

Women change after they have children.

Ahjussi.

Aren't you supposed to be at work?

I quit.

Why?

I fought with the manager.

If he wasn't my friend's uncle, I would've killed him already.

Anyway, can you teach me how to play the synthesizer?

Music isn't for everyone.

The old teacher said I was talented.

This job has no future.

You should learn something else like construction or car repair.

It's better for you.

Everybody was born to do something.

- And you were born to do music? - Yes.

Plus I'm pretty cute.

Ahjussi.

Why did you sneak up on me like that? You scared me.

How did you come in? I thought I locked the door.

What are you doing?

Self-promotion is everything now.

So I'm making my own music video to submit it to agents.

You're really full of yourself.

Your looks are more important than your music these days.

Let's be real, the synthesizer does all the work for you.

But why are you here this late?

Is Sung Woo still here?

He went home a while ago.

Should I call him?

Forget it.

He has no interest in women.

What happened to you?

That bitch's pimp stabbed me.

It's that guy again?

No, another fucker.

That piece of shit.

Why didn't you go to the hospital?

What's wrong with my life?

Don't touch me!

It hurts so bad...

I knew this would happen. I knew this day would come!

Fuck, don't lecture me!

I feel like I'm going crazy!

Stop drinking. It's bad for your wound.

My arm's useless anyway.

So what are you going to do?

Should I go back to my wife and help with her store?

That's not a bad idea.

But I'm not sure if she'll take me.

What happened to my life? I ruined my life in a flash.

Hyung, can you call Kang Soo for me?

Do it when you're sober.

I really need to talk to him.

Only if I hadn't played with that girl from the sauna...

I have a conscience too!

Call him for me, okay?

All right.

Hello?

It's me.

Stop crying and speak slowly, you lunatic.

What?

What did you say?

I said to slow down!

Speak and don't cry, idiot.

Have you seen a doctor?

Why do you live that way?

Just die and get it over with, shithead.

Hello?

Yes.

What?

Right now?

I'm done with work, but...

Okay.

Bye.

The Waikiki manager wants to see me.

Go ahead.

I wonder what he wants.

Get home safely.

What are you doing here?

Oh, nothing.

I just wanted a drink with you.

What should I do now that I'm fired?

My wife doesn't have what it takes to earn money.

And you know my parents don't have any either.

Some get rich just sitting on their land, while unlucky ones like me...

What did In Gi say?

I didn't get fired because of him.

Then why?

After the protest, there was a bribery inspection...

Fuck!

I became the scapegoat for everyone because I have the least power.

Ever since I was a kid, I've had no fucking luck.

Should I join your band and play the drums?

Forget it. Everyone's leaving the band anyway.

I know.

I just spoke out of desperation.

Sung Woo.

Are you happy?

You're the only one who does what he wants.

Aren't you happy being a musician?

I'm sorry.

First message.

It's me.

Can you come by my house after work?

It's no big deal. I just want to have dinner with you.

Dongshin Apartment, building 2 room 304.

See you.

Next message.

It's Min Soo.

Soo Chul's dead!

Call me at the pharmacy when you get this!

How's your business?

Sung Woo, over here.

Good to see you.

Did you see Soo Chul's wife?

Are you all right?

Hey, have a drink.

Stop it. What right do you have to cry?

What have I done so wrong?

Don't cause a scene. I'm sick of you.

Sung Woo, do you think I'm guilty too? Am I to blame for Soo Chul's death?

You have no shame. How dare you come here?

I didn't want to say this.

But he wasn't fired because of me. He was caught during the inspection.

Your protest made it worse!

If he wasn't fired, do you think he'd get drunk and get hit by a car?

What did you do for him? I heard you refused to lend him 300,0000 won.

I had it hard then because the stocks crashed.

Then how could you give so much money to a politician?

You even wanted a fake receipt for giving money to my organization.

- What the hell are you talking about? - Stop it.

- Get off of me! - Go ahead and hit me.

I'd feel better if you beat me to death!

Fine with me!

Stop it!

Let it go, Min Soo.

What's wrong with him?

We're closed.

Why are you drinking so much? Get up now.

I have to go home now. Stop drinking.

Get up and go home.

You said you wanted to talk, so why are you so quiet?

I'm leaving this town.

Really? Where?

Yeosu.

An old band member called me.

Really?

Here I thought you were going to propose to me.

I guess I got way ahead of myself.

How could I propose to you?

Yeosu?

It's been a long time since I saw the sea.
