Original subtitles

It's been a while.

You've been well, right?

All right, let's get going.

This taxi has two rules.

I occasionally pick up new passengers,

but I mostly drive regulars who book in advance.

On the way to their destination,

we listen together to whatever music they want.

'A Song Just for You'

You wonder if I make enough for gas only driving regulars?

More people seek out this taxi than you'd think.

There's Gyehyang, who can't sleep because of insomnia.

Changshik, who only wears clothes others have thrown away.

And even Ma Dae-il, the long-haired barista.

Oh, and in the drama,

the actress Oh Young-ran, who plays Matsogeum,

is a regular in this taxi, too.

As we drive along,

I take song requests from my passengers.

Sometimes their stories become the lyrics.

Sir!

Sir!

Huh?

Every time they get in the back seat,

some passengers make a full confession.

Come to think of it, sometimes it's easier

to open up to someone you're not too close to

and tell them what's really on your mind.

In that sense,

the driver's seat and the passenger's back seat

make for just the right distance.

What do I do when I don't have a booking?

Well...

I kill time somewhere

while I wait for a booking.

I wait for bookings while I eat.

Oh, this one, this one, this one.

Look, look, look!

I wait for bookings while coaching the players.

I wait for bookings, savoring the aroma of coffee.

Yeon-woo?

This is Yeon-woo, one of my regulars.

Whenever she goes through a breakup,

she books a taxi.

Every time I pick her up,

my heart feels heavy.

Driver...

Just take me anywhere.

Today...

Did she break up again?

You changed your hair.

Short hair suits you, too.

Thank you.

I was wondering...

Did you cut your hair because of a breakup...?

He's the absolute worst.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said something so... so insensitive.

No, I mean...

That jerk is the absolute worst.

Hurry up, babe!

What? You bought four?

I didn't know which flavor you'd like.

These are cinnamon—one with sugar, one without.

- These are chocolate, one with sugar. - Oh, my!

And one without.

Pick whichever one you want most.

I'll eat the rest.

Oh, stop it.

I'm gonna cry.

Oh, what are you saying?

Come on.

Hey, Teddy, could you carry these two for me?

Thanks.

Teddy?

Okay, I'll take it.

Oh...

Like an idiot...

Getting stuck taking a commemorative photo between those two...

Ugh, this is so annoying.

Ugh, this is so annoying.

It's only been three days since he broke up with me.

Could you take one vertically, too?

One, two...

- Huh? Uh, uh... - Oh, huh?

Huh.

Oh, what was that?

I don't know.

We've arrived.

Where are we?

The zoo.

This place suits me.

Driver.

Could you wait here for a little while?

Oh, goodness. Oh, goodness.

- Oh, dear, oh, dear. - Oh...

- It's okay. - Someone might think...

we're kidnapping a bear from the zoo.

Actually, I was walking around in this earlier...

I hurriedly took it off in case someone shot me with a tranquilizer dart.

Oh, that was really dangerous.

- Exactly.

There, all cleaned up?

Oh.

There's a pocket for personal items inside this mascot suit.

You know, my phone, makeup...

I've got lots of candy in there, too, for when my blood sugar dips at work.

Oh...

He said he liked short hair.

So I cut mine.

But the woman I saw him with today had long, straight hair.

He said women with long, straight hair looked like ghosts, so he wouldn't even look at them.

And he'd only give me perfume in scents he liked.

I hate musk.

- Yeon-woo. - Yeah?

I'm the one who has to smell it, after all.

So I realized I should pick a scent I like.

Yeah.

I'm always trying to accommodate the other person.

I really try hard, you know?

But today, it suddenly hit me.

'Oh...'

'Maybe I only cared about being who the other person wanted me to be.'

Maybe that man

has never seen the real you, Yeon-woo.

What I like...

and what I don't like.

I've never tried to show him who I really am,

just as I am.

I was afraid he'd hate the real me.

Even when I was dating, I was always

hiding deep inside that bear costume.

Driver.

I'd like to hear this song today.

Oh, The Black Skirts are great!

You know The Black Skirts?

I have a pretty broad musical range.

I always buy The Black Skirts' albums.

Though they don't put out albums very often.

No, I always kept you in mind, Driver,

and asked for songs I thought you'd know.

Yes, I noticed you always did that.

It honestly made me feel a little hurt.

Here.

Oh? Driver, not right in front of my house.

Could you drop me off up there instead?

- Right there, here. - Uh...

Yes.

Huh?

I said I'd get out here?

Well, earlier at the zoo,

I left the meter running, and the fare really piled up.

Oh! I'll cover the dryer, too.

Oh...

D-Driver, the fare must've been pretty high today, right?

Yes.

You could probably take tomorrow off and not accept any bookings.

Oh, dear.

What should I say?

Just...

Tell them exactly what happened.

Oh, okay.

I'm sorry.

Yes, yes. I'm sorry.

Yes.

Oh...

First,

they said to return that teddy bear first.

What, do they think I'll run off without returning it?

If I get fired, I'll just find another part-time job.

I don't want to...

wear a mascot costume anymore.

Yes.

Thank you.

All right.

Cheers!

Okay, let's take the palace.

Aw, come on.

Oh! Uh, uh, uh, uh!

K-K-Knight... oh...

Whoa!

Checkmate!

- Check! Check! Take that! - Damn it.

Aw...

All right. Ha ha.

Oh, damn.

A regular of mine, and

a collector of breakups, Yeon-woo, is calling.

What kind of breakup has she had this time?

I've heard a lot about you.

Yeon-woo said you've helped her a lot whenever she's been going through a hard time.

Oh.

Oh, it was nothing.

I just make sure she gets home safely, that's all.

For some reason,

I wanted you to meet my boyfriend, sir.

You know my whole story better than anyone.

Well...

What do you think? Doesn't this one seem like it'll last?

If things always went the way I said,

I'd be a fortune-teller, not a taxi driver.

Come on, you must have a gut feeling.

My gut says it's looking good.

And you're even going on a weekend date at an amusement park.

Mm-hmm.

We're heading to work.

We're coworkers dating.

Oh?

Oh, so you're still wearing the mascot costume?

No, I ditched the mascot costume.

That day,

I took your advice and was honest about everything,

and told my manager the whole truth.

So my manager switched me to a different role.

Thanks to that,

I got to meet my honey here, too.

Hee-hee!

Oh!

All right, everyone...

What's the part everyone's been waiting for at Black Hole 2000?

Dance time!

We're going to get started now.
