[EPISODE 6]

I love drinking solo.

Since my job entails talking all day, having this time when I don't have to...

this solitude... is the best.

I have a couple of rules for myself when I drink solo.

FIRST: I have to drink in a place with a luxurious atmosphere.

SECOND: I have to snack on something luxurious while I drink.

THIRD: I have to drink with some class.

I must never allow my blood alcohol level to get above 0.08 percent.

That's the legal blood alcohol limit.

I'm still okay.

That's the sweet spot. That's how much I can drink without feeling cruddy.

Excuse me.

It looks like you're here by yourself. Want to drink together?

No, no thank you.

I like drinking alone.

Oh.

I hate women who get clingy after they've had a drink.

A time just for myself. A time of healing.

This is the reason why I love drinking solo.

So you're having tequila today?

Don't have too much, though! You might get indigestion!

Isn't that a funny pun?

Oh, No Geu Rae.

Why does she keep commenting on my photos?

How tacky.

I wonder why Professor Jin is drinking hard liquor on a day like today.

He shouldn't drink too much. Tomorrow's the first joint class day.

But now I kind of want some too.

I won't drink tonight, for tomorrow's sake.

I'll just have to pretend for today.

Oh my gosh! What was that?

Huh? Why is it raining?

We won't have students not show up if it rains tomorrow, right?

Well, they're not kindergartners.

All right. Let's get ready for the lecture.

Secondly, there are "friendly terms."

They're kind of like greetings, but...

Yeah. This much preparation should be enough.

Even the heavens would acknowledge that!

Goodness!

Yes, yes, I'm sorry. I'll do some more prep work.

The jargon for this refers to something more detailed...

What the... why is it raining like it's summer when it's autumn now?

[NUMBER ONE INSTRUCTOR PROFESSOR JIN JUNG SEOK'S JOINT CLASS]

The time has finally come! It's the day of the first joint class!

I think it'd be best if Ms. No Geu Rae stood next to me.

What are you doing? Hurry and get over here.

Oh...

Oh... but why did he do that?

Does he really like me like Professor Min said?

Oh my, no way!

Professor Jin, I'll repay your kindness by lecturing well!

Ha Na! Why are you here so early?

Oh, you're here?

What's this? Did you come here early to practice for your lecture

since today is the first day of the joint classes?

I couldn't even sleep, thinking about lecturing in front of 1,000 people.

I practiced all night and took the earliest train here.

- Oh. - You're not nervous, Jin Yi?

You're okay?

I'm not nervous. I just need to do what I always do.

Yeah.

But you were looking forward to it, weren't you?

You even marked the first day of the joint classes on your calendar.

No, this is for something else entirely.

I'm going to totally jump my Min Ho today!

- What? - I told you, right?

The only way I'll be able to get married is to get pregnant.

He's saying that he'll only get married after his business starts doing well

and when he's good and ready, but...

but when exactly is his business going to do well, and when will he be ready?

I'm going to have to wait forever at this rate!

I even made a reservation for a hotel room tonight.

It's a really swanky place in Gangnam called Monaco.

Wait a second.

If I do manage to get pregnant today, do I have to call the baby "Monaco"?

Because I conceived them at Monaco! Oh my!

Oh, what should I do?

At any rate, today is a super-duper important day for me!

It really is a special day today in more ways than one!

What's so important, I reckon?

I asked you what's so important. Huh?

What's so damn important?

What are you doing?

Are you that woman from "The Wailing"... wait, no.

You're even acting as the ghosts that the woman gets possessed by?

Yep! Didn't I do a great impression?

What the hell are you spouting when you don't even know what's good? Huh?

Stop it with your stupid nonsense already!

It's gloomy enough as it is with the rain and you're freaking me out more!

Why did you choose a character like that?

Make me some coffee too!

What else besides coffee in the morning is good, eh?

Huh? What else is so good, huh?

Oh!

Hello! Hello!

What the... why is he acting like that when he's actually happy to see me?

He really is a tsundere.

Why is she staring at me and smiling for?

What a tacky woman.

Excuse me.

Can I have that?

What? This?

Yeah. You have some side dishes left over. It'd be a waste to throw them out.

How could you eat this?

Why couldn't I? It looks like there's just enough for one bowl of rice.

Excuse me. I really have no more money left this month, so...

Dong Young!

What's with you? Are you going somewhere?

Some people might think you're an idol on your way to an award ceremony.

I have my grandma's 70th birthday party today.

All her family and friends will be there, so I have to show them

that she has an amazing grandson like me.

Amazing grandson, my ass. Just study, man.

You're in no position to be attending parties right now.

- You're just like my mom. - What?

My mom said the same thing you did and told me not to come.

But how could I not go? My grandma is really special to me!

You know that she raised me because my parents were busy working.

Why are you staring at me?

What, are you surprised at how well I clean up

since you've only ever seen me in sweats?

Figures. I do have a great body for wearing suits.

You're ridiculous.

If you came all the way to Noryangjin to study

- why don't you study? - "Why don't you study?"

Hey, Noryangjin's Top Beauty. No, more like Top Despicable.

Change your comebacks already. It's getting really old.

Really? Is this nice and fresh then?

Ow! That little...

Ow, damn it! She's cramping my style!

It'll get cramped anyway since it's raining a lot outside.

Oh yeah. It's raining today, right?

Isn't there any way that I can get there dry?

I'm sure there's plenty of you asking why Korean History is important to the exam.

"Why? I get why Korean, English, and Math are there. Why Korean History, though?"

I knew that Professor Jin is amazing, but he looks almost godly today.

I have to do as well as he does!

Who is staring at you, at what time, in which way, is most...

is most important. Yes.

I'll be teaching the afternoon class. Will I be able to do well?

I'm more nervous than I'd expected.

Shall I look up ways to make kimchi?

No, not "making kimchi!" Nervous! I'm nervous!

I want to show Professor Jin that I can do a good job.

"It seems that you really did have potential. You're no longer No Geu Rae."

It'd be so nice if he praised me just like that.

Do you like him?

What? What do you mean like him?

I just respect him is all. You got that?

Yes, I understand.

Are you sure you really understand?

I really don't like him, all right?

Why is this thing and Professor Min being like this?

Why do they keep linking me with Professor Jin? Geez.

Let's all go have lunch, shall we?

My in-laws were chewing me out about the academy's sales all morning

so I didn't eat breakfast and now I'm so, so hungry.

What should we eat? Oh, it's raining, so...

It's raining, so how about some warm rice and soup?

Yes, I like that.

How about some stir-fried baby octopus? Let's go eat that.

Wow, how nice! I was actually craving that.

Um, I'm not going to eat. But please, go ahead.

Why not? You pulled an all-nighter practicing your lecture too.

You didn't even have breakfast either.

It's okay. I think I'll get indigestion if I eat now.

But still, it's hard to lecture on an empty stomach!

Yeah, Professor Park. We're doing all this to eat and survive, after all.

What's so great about some damn lecture? Huh?

You don't even know what's so great about it. Stop being ridiculous.

You're the one who's being ridiculous, Professor Min.

You think lectures aren't important? Of course they're important!

I told you to plan lessons instead of practicing this tomfoolery, didn't I?

Do you want to "wail" while doing an impersonation of "The Wailing"?

Then have this at least, Professor Park.

What's this?

It's herbal medicine that has everything that's supposed to be good for you in it.

I'm fine if I have just that even if I starve for three days,

Wow, thank you!

I'm hungry, damn it! Hurry and come out!

We're coming! Enjoy, Professor Park!

- Have a good lunch! - I'll be going too.

Okay.

Man, I want alcohol.

Maybe I'll have a glass of wine?

Oh yeah. Big Bro told me not to lay a hand on this.

I'll only let my mouth touch this then!

Which one should I drink?

Wow.

Oh my gosh!

[KI BUM]

What do you want?

Hey. Are you coming to the academy today?

Are you taking the afternoon class?

No. Where would I go when it's raining?

You know that I cut class in college too when it was raining.

You ever-the-same bastard.

I figured you were going to say that, which is why I called.

Let's skip classes and go somewhere else. Get your brother's car, so we can go.

My brother's car?

Why? Are you trying to go somewhere?

Why do I feel so dizzy?

Why am I breaking out in a cold sweat?

Maybe it's because I'm nervous?

And why is my heart beating so fast?

Calm down. Calm down!

Yes, um. Hello, everyone.

I'm Park Ha Na, who'll be teaching the Powerful Korean class.

Thank you.

Well, this is "Powerful Korean," so let's start things off powerfully.

Everyone, let's be strong until the day you all pass the tests, and...

let's be strong, and...

let's be strong...

Teacher!

No Geu Rae is probably in the middle of her lecture right now.

I wonder if she's doing a good job.

Wait, why are you worried about her?

Stop being tacky.

No, I'm not worried about No Geu Rae. I'm worried about my own joint class.

Wait just a second!

Here, Mr. Park. Use this to pay for the hospital fees.

- And call me when she wakes up. - Yes, sir.

Hurry! Hurry!

What's going on? Is that No Geu Rae on that man's back?

Yeah. She fainted in the middle of her class.

- What? - I hope she'll be okay.

How could this happen on the first day of joint classes?

You want to weather this storm to go to your grandma's 70th birthday?

You deserve a monument for being such a filial grandson.

Yeah, do that. But will it be able to match my faithfulness to my grandma?

Oh, for real?

I really do have to be good to her.

She used to go and buy sausages every day because I was so picky about side dishes

and her hip got bent out of shape because she cleaned my room so often.

And I used to tell my mom that it was my grandma's fault for not raising me right

that I'm so bad at studying.

She really worked hard to raise me.

Yeah. It must've been tons of work to raise a kid like you.

It's hard enough on me, and I'm only your friend.

You little...

I'll let you off the hook just for today since you're driving.

But what's with that tiny present?

Isn't your present a bit lacking compared to your feelings toward your grandma?

No, not at all. I worked so hard yesterday preparing this!

I put all the songs my grandma loves on this mp3 player.

She'll love it.

Wow, you really put a lot of hard work into that, didn't you?

My grandma thinks that I'm not coming. It'll be great to surprise her like this!

If she knows that I weathered this storm for her...

Aw man, I left my sweats to dry on the roof!

Damn it!

Damn it!

Yeah, Dong Young? It's me.

Um, I left my sweats drying on the roof, and...

What? You're at the emergency room? Why?

Oh, really? Okay, then. Okay.

Why is he at the emergency room? Is he sick or something?

No, it's because of the Korean teacher. She passed out during her lecture.

What?

What is this? What happened?

Oh, you're up, Teach?

Um, yes. But why am I here?

I remember that there was a blackout during my lecture, but...

A blackout? No, Teach. You passed out.

Huh? What about the class?

It wcanceledled.

No way! I prepared so much for that class!

Damn it, why did I pass out?

You're awake, ma'am?

Yes, Doctor. Why am I like this?

It's not because I got nervous, is it?

I'm not sure. We ran some tests on you, but nothing came up.

I think you may have gone into shock due to an allergic reaction.

What did you eat today?

What? Um... I had some herbal medicine. That's it.

Herbal medicine? Do you usually take that?

No, a coworker gave it to me.

Then there was probably something in there that you're allergic to.

After you've settled down a bit more and finished the IV

we'll run some allergy tests on you.

I can't believe I blew my first lesson like that.

What am I going to do?

But... who gave you that herbal medicine?

It's because of them you fainted and your class was canceled.

That person should take responsibility for this.

Um, can you pretend you didn't hear about the herbal medicine?

- Okay? - What?

All right, then.

I'll be going back to the academy now. I don't have much time, you see.

Teach! Wait! Wait!

What is that patient doing?

She said she had no time and left.

But can I get the rest of this IV injected into me instead?

What?

I mean, we paid for it already. It'd be wasteful not to.

Oh, wait. I have to go back to the academy too.

Can you give this to me in a to-go form then?

No, no. I won't know how to inject this even if I take it.

Can you hold onto this for me then?

And can you inject this into me when I come here because I'm really fatigued?

Excuse me?

Yeah. Okay.

Be careful, okay? Bye.

Ha Na said she's on her way here now via taxi.

Why did she pass out if she's not even sick? Why? Why? Why?

She couldn't even sleep because she was nervous, and she didn't even eat.

I think her body just couldn't hold out.

Yeah. You need to have a good meal before lecturing too.

Wait. Did she not take the medicine that I gave her?

Man, if she took that, she wouldn't have passed out!

Why doesn't she listen?

I'm so pissed right now! So, so much!

It's not like Professor Jin's joint class is a run-of-the-mill joint class.

It's our academy's main joint class! But we had this happen on the first day!

Exactly! What if the students drop out

and our joint class's image becomes tarnished?

Is that really important right now when someone passed out?

What's important, then, eh? What's important, huh?

Shut it!

I'm going half-crazy as it is!

Are you stupid or do you just have no common sense?

What's so important about that, eh?

Why, I ought to... I can't even deal with you.

- That's what you always say. - What?

Did you hear, Professor Choi?

I heard that the Korean teacher in Professor Jin's joint class

passed out during her lecture. Do you know why?

Oh, I heard it was because she was nervous.

She's pretty much a newbie.

So to take on a huge class like that all of the sudden

must have freaked her out, and she couldn't withstand it.

Then why did Professor Jin even let an unprepared newbie into his joint class?

Exactly. He's always going on about quality and such

and acting so high and mighty.

I guess he's a poor judge of character.

What the hell did you just say?

Lay off if you don't have the confidence to insult me to my face.

Or talk behind my back where I definitely wouldn't overhear you.

You left it all on and don't care about wasting resources?

Don't you know about gradual progression?

But... it's for the business.

For the business, my foot.

You think electricity grows on trees or something?

Director. I'm sorry.

Is your body okay?

Oh... yes. I'm totally fine now.

No. I'm not talking about now. Are you actually even healthy?

How could a perfectly healthy person pass out

just because they stayed up all night and didn't eat two meals?

Are you sure you don't have some sort of disease?

What?

Are you hiding the fact that you have a disease from me?

You don't have good credentials and you don't seem healthy.

Is ambition all you have?

No, it's not like that.

How could you ruin our academy's best joint class on the first day then?

What are you going to do if people drop out? Huh?

- I'm sorry. - Do you even know how sorry...

Ugh, I shouldn't have hired you just to save some money!

I shouldn't have hired an amateur.

Ugh, I'm so pissed. My blood pressure is going up like crazy!

Make sure you only hang out with people with low blood pressure

since you're so good at raising mine.

Work, already. It's not like we're putting on a show here.

What are you doing? Hurry and schedule a make-up class!

Ugh.

Also, make sure you bring a certificate of health after the weekend.

It's okay. You can just do well during your next class.

Yeah. Cheer up, Park Ha Na!

Professor Jin, I'm very sorry.

You gave me a huge opportunity and yet...

You know, the thing about chances is

only people who are prepared can take advantage of them.

Excuse me?

I heard that you didn't even eat or sleep.

How could you not even take care of yourself properly because of this?

Don't you know that self-care is the most important thing for an instructor?

I'm sorry.

Whatever. Who can I blame but myself, who's a terrible judge of character?

It seems I thought way too highly of you, Ms. No Geu Rae.

I worked so hard to prepare for this class too.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I wanted to do well because he believed in me and was good to me.

And I wanted to be praised and acknowledged.

The fact that you want to be acknowledged by someone

means that you like them.

Like him? As if.

It's only right that I got yelled at

and it's only to be expected that Premium Trash would say such mean things to me

with that nasty temper of his.

So why do I feel so let down then?

- I wonder where Grandma is? - Hello.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

Oh, it's Grandma.

You told Ki Bum not to come, right?

Yeah, I told him way beforehand not to come.

Good. It's not like my birthday is a big deal. He doesn't need to come.

I hope my little puppy studies hard. He has to pass this time.

Exactly! Ki Bum is such an embarrassment, seriously!

Why are you embarrassed?

Of course I am! All the other kids here went to great colleges in Seoul

and they've already gotten jobs too!

And yet Ki Bum is the only one who ended up like that!

Don't say that. Usually, he would've used any excuse to come here and play.

But he's not here. It's clear that he's committed himself to studying.

Studying? As if! I barely stopped him today

because he was saying that he'd just drop off a gift to you and go!

Who cares about presents? Passing that exam would be the best gift!

Don't you worry. My little puppy will definitely pass this time for sure.

That'd be nice.

I think they're getting started. Let's head inside.

All right. Go ahead and bow.

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

Yes, thank you, everyone.

Oh, where are you going? We're getting this party started now for Madam Lee!

Music cue!

Dance! Dance! Everybody dance!

Dance to show her how much you love her!

Oh, come on now! More! More!

Spin! Spin!

All right, very nice!

All right, now. Dance! Dance!

Grandma likes seeing me dance most of all.

And she likes "Train Going South" more than this song.

Crazy bastard.

You don't have time to be worrying about that right now.

I should go.

Let's go study.

The one in the front is doing well.

Good job. You're making your mom happy.

Professor Park, I heard you fainted today.

Are you okay?

Would this bother her when she's not feeling well?

[DONG YOUNG]

Hey, how is Professor Park doing?

Did she regain consciousness?

Yes, she did and already went back to the academy.

- She seemed okay. - What caused it?

She took some medicine that her coworker gave her.

And she had an allergic reaction and fainted.

What?

What medicine was it?

I don't know. She asked me not to say anything.

Hey, I should go study.

I'm hanging up.

Hey.

I really hope she's okay.

What's going on?

Why did you bring it back?

You didn't see your grandma?

Let's just go.

Goodness.

The weather is depressing.

Let's go get some scallion pancakes and rice wine.

No thank you.

I'm seeing Min Ho today.

Perfect.

Yes, my love, Min Ho.

Where are you?

Why?

No way.

We have to see each other today.

What?

Are you the one who does all the work?

When you're that busy, you still find time to breathe, huh?

It's amazing that you're still breathing.

Your plan has just been canceled, hasn't it?

Good. Come with me and have a drink.

I will go first.

Come with us.

For your health, let's have chicken soup with medicinal herbs.

I'm feeling so upset.

Have a drink with me.

No thanks. I will go home and rest.

What is it? You're still not feeling well?

You need to eat even more when you feel that way.

What if you faint again?

Wait.

- Take this one again. - No thank you.

I will take better care of myself not to cause any trouble for our class.

You must have been worried about me all day today.

I'm sorry about that. I will go now.

It's raining and all. I will drive you home.

- Ha Na, wait up. - Professor Hwang.

Just leave her alone.

She seems to want to be alone.

Since we talked about it

buy me chicken soup with medicinal herbs.

Please take care of my health.

I will pass.

Ask your wife to do that for you.

Why should I take care of your health?

Come on. Don't do that.

You wanted to drink too. Let's go.

[MAIL FROM DIRECTOR KIM]

Look, Professor Park. How are you going to handle this?

[PARK HA NA'S FAINTING KOREAN!]

It's all over the academy homepage.

Students made this video and are spreading it.

A lot of complaints are being posted too.

[PROFESSOR PARK HA NA'S CLASS HAS BEEN CANCELED DUE TO AN UNAVOIDABLE REASON.]

Is it true that Professor Park Ha Na fainted because she was too nervous?

I trusted Professor Jin, so I took this class. I'm ruined.

I don't want to take the Korean class. Can I get a partial refund?

Please switch the Korean teacher.

What are you going to do now?

How are you going to handle this situation?

I'm sorry.

Stop saying sorry to me.

Go home and post your apology on the homepage.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

I wish I were swept away in this rain.

What's up with No Geu Rae?

The look that her feelings were hurt...

Did I go too far when she wasn't feeling well?

What? What?

Did I make her faint?

Why should I even worry about that?

It only brings my value down.

Come on, seriously.

Come on, seriously.

Professor Park, get in quickly.

We have a problem.

- What's wrong? - Please get in quickly.

We have a big problem.

What's the problem again?

What is it?

What kind of problem is it?

It is a big problem.

The fact I said we had a problem when we didn't.

- Doesn't that mean we have a problem? - What?

What are you doing not studying?

Whose car is this?

I borrowed it from someone.

I wanted to drive you home.

Why would you want to drive me home?

Did you perhaps hear about it?

What? Hear what?

Ah, it's nothing.

That you fainted?

Did you perhaps see the video?

- Pardon? - Nothing.

The one that shows you faint after seeing a bear in the woods?

Or the one that shows you faint after meeting Obama?

You saw it all then.

Kids are so mean.

When someone fainted, they make such a video.

Everybody thinks you fainted because you were too nervous.

Why don't you tell the truth?

- What truth? - I heard everything from Dong Young.

The reason why you fainted was

you had an allergic reaction to medicine your coworker gave you.

Why didn't you tell that truth?

If I say that it would sound like I'm blaming my coworker.

He meant well, so I don't want to trouble him.

Now you're in bigger trouble because of it.

Anyway, I'm the one who took it and fainted.

It's right that I take the fall.

- I will take care of it. - Oh my.

I don't know if you're too nice or too naive.

By the way, are you sure you're feeling okay?

Yes, I'm okay.

Thanks, Dong Myung.

- Go back to your studying. - I will.

- Which unit is your place? - What?

Well...

Over there...

Ah, that one?

Your curtain is very cute.

People can tell a lady lives there.

Your place resembles you.

Doesn't it? It resembles me.

[DON'T LEAVE YOUR CIGARETTE BUTTS!] [NO URINATION!]

- Go now. - I will.

How nice to run into you here! Don't you live in the semi-basement?

You live in the semi-basement?

- Well... - This isn't the time to talk.

The drain is backed up because of this heavy rain.

Your place could get flooded.

What?

Go now, okay?

Professor Park.

What kind of pool is this now that it's not even summer?

Oh my goodness.

What do I do?

It's all wet.

Gosh, what do I do?

- My shoes. - What are you doing?

You said the second floor was your place.

That's not what matters now.

I should clean up here.

We will talk later, so just go.

- I will help clean up. - It's okay.

I will take care of this, so just go study.

I can't do that.

Your place is flooded.

Plus, you fainted earlier. You're not well yet.

I can't just walk away.

Don't do that. Just go.

I will take care of it. I'm okay.

- I can clean up myself. - Come on.

We could be dumping buckets of water out instead of arguing.

Hurry and clean up.

Hurry.

How could all this water get in?

My grandma used to love it when I danced for her.

I didn't get to wish her a happy birthday properly.

[HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY TO LEE MAN SOON]

You're my cute puppy.

I'd be sad if you missed my birthday party.

Of course.

Grandma, happy birthday.

- Isn't Ki Bum the best? - My Ki Bum is the best!

I thought he might be crazy.

He is indeed crazy.

He's sure all over the place.

Did he faint from the fall?

Hey.

What's going on?

Are you crying?

You were all happy to go to your grandma's 70th birthday party.

Why are you sitting down here like this?

You were dancing all happily and are now crying.

You're no joke.

Stop playing around.

Focus on studying now that you are in Noryangjin.

True.

You are right.

Now that I'm in Noryangjin

I should be studying.

If I'd passed the exam

I would have been so proud to dance for her at her party today.

What?

I still haven't passed the exam and all.

I went to my grandma's 70th birthday party today.

But I couldn't bring myself to see her.

I agree.

We're not exactly in a position to show up proudly.

When I watch TV a little bit

I ask myself if it's okay to do that.

When I buy myself a shirt

I ask myself if it's okay to do that.

When I eat, I feel like I don't deserve it.

When I sleep at night, I feel like I don't deserve it.

Stop crying, okay?

My heart is hurting so much.

Come on.

Stop crying.

Seriously, where are you leaning against?

Do you want to die?

Grandma!

I wanted to see you today.

Please forgive your grandson.

Sky!

Thank you for crying with me.

You went through a lot to dump out the water.

Will this be really good enough?

Of course. I like pigs' feet.

Thank you.

Thanks to your help, it got cleaned up faster than I expected.

But I feel bad.

I took away your study time.

Come on, how many times have I told you?

- I don't study hard at all. - You don't want to say that.

Can't you become more studious?

Well, I have no right to say that.

Because I failed to teach today.

Is it okay to drink?

You were in an emergency room.

It's okay. I just blacked out briefly.

You must be dying to drink considering how your day was today.

Plus now your place is flooded.

Won't it be too damp in your place tonight?

It will be okay.

I've lived in a semi-basement many times.

Such a thing happens all the time.

I'm used to it, so I'm okay.

Why are you okay with everything all the time?

Are you trying to act strong in front of your student?

I'm your favorite student.

You can tell me when you're not okay.

Professor Park.

I'm your favorite student.

You can tell me when you're not okay.

Professor Park.

You're right. I'm not okay.

I'm actually not okay.

Do you know how hard I tried to get such a chance?

I can't believe I fainted like a loser.

I also think anybody would faint when they think about me.

Cheer up, Professor Park.

Nothing starts out easy.

If you try hard, it will get better.

Gosh, why am I doing this?

True. It will, won't it?

We should cheer up.

If you keep crying, you will have more things to cry about.

If you keep smiling, you will have more things to smile about.

True. I got it.

From now on, I will smile.

See how nice it is when you smile, right?

It is. It is nice when we smile.

But I'm not happy even if I'm smiling.

I'd rather just be honest and cry.

What's wrong with my life?

Even my place is flooded.

I wanted to do a good job.

I really wanted to do a good job.

I even lost my voice too.

My life is so depressing.

I saw you earlier.

You seemed very upset that you weren't seeing your boyfriend.

You've been going out for five years?

Do you still want to spend time with him that badly?

If you don't see him

you get sad and upset, right?

There is something...

You don't have to know.

Professor Min.

Did you date your wife before getting married?

What?

That...

When you were getting ready to marry

did you guys have everything ready?

Were you financially ready including your own house?

Not a bit.

We both didn't have much.

We started out in an apartment.

At that time, I was a new teacher who just got to Noryangjin.

I was also very busy with work.

We went through a lot together.

That's how everybody starts out, but then why?

What do you mean?

Nothing.

Professor Min, let's go elsewhere and have more.

- It's raining and all... - Let's do that.

Oh my.

Time has flown.

I should get going.

Where are you going?

- What are you doing? - What do you mean?

You always ask me to drink with you.

I won't let you leave because your alarm went off, not today.

Have one more drink with me, okay?

Let go, Professor Hwang.

I have to go.

If not, my wife will kill me.

Is your wife that important?

Then what should be important?

What is important?

You don't even know what's important.

Why are you being a pain, huh?

Stop right there! What!

Of course your wife is important.

What? Me too.

I also want to become an important person to someone.

Again, I'm drinking solo today.

When I drink solo on a rainy day

I like it even more.

Even if I cry as much and as loudly as I want

it's not as embarrassing or loud because of rain.

Honey, say ah.

- It's so good. - Isn't it?

You have some too.

I get comfort from the sky that's crying for me.

The rain will stop tomorrow.

We will have a better day tomorrow.

We can hope for that.

Honey.

I'm home, honey.

Aw, honey. Have you been lonely all day?

Because the sound of raindrops

could be a source of comfort for the pain we try so hard to hide.

At the end of a long hard day...

if we can have a drink watching the rain fall

I think it will help us forget the struggles a bit.

So when I drink solo on a rainy day

I like it a little more.

Professor Park, wake up and have some of this.

Professor Park.

Hey, Jin Gong Myung.

I told you to leave. Why are you still here?

Go, you punk.

I said go study.

Gosh.

She can't drink much, can she?

What's with No Geu Rae?

Did she see it or not?

She's always been the first one to write something.

No reply tonight?

Is she trying to say she's mad?

Don't bother. Forget it.

No, maybe I should call her up.

I don't mean anything else.

I'm only trying to manage my joint class.

So I will just comfort her a bit.

[NO GEU RAE]

Forget it. I look desperate.

Professor Park, wake up.

You should go home.

Premium Trash?

Hello? This is Park Ha Na's cell phone.

Hello? Hello?

What was that?

She's out drinking with a guy?

After she trashed the image of my joint class?

She manages to do everything including dating, huh?

She still doesn't know her place at all, does she?

Professor Park, wake up.

You should go home.

What are you doing here?

Why are you still here?

I told you to go study.

If you go, I will too.

Will you?

Then let's go.

Then we should go.

Come on.

Professor Park.

You really should have a boyfriend.

Why not become my girlfriend, huh?

[LET'S DRINK]

No Geu Rae should be on air by now.

I'm not interested to know.

but I should watch it to manage my joint class, right?

The topic of today's lesson is "I will do everything."

Students.

Ha Na fainted because it was too fun.

Want me to do it again? It's all in my hands.

Then pull it straight up.

His studying is bothering me.

I was going to study. Why are you bothering me?

Move.

Don't you think she's pretty?

I hate people who don't try their best

but try to take an easy way out.

I'm not the same Jin Gong Myung you used to boss around.

I came because I was worried about you.

I told you to study.

I'm not motivated to study, you know.

Fine. I will do one thing you ask for.

Then go out with me.

Thank you. I wouldn't be able to live without you.

She's on the phone with her boyfriend at work?

Sorry to trouble you.

Your mind is elsewhere.

When you're not doing your best

do you expect students to want to take your class?

I'm doing the best I can right now.

Your mind is elsewhere.

You're dating someone.

You think you should be dating someone right now?
