Why are you staring?
That was so cool.
Who? All Zeros?
No, that awesome box.
Choi Dal-po. Do you think broadcasting is a joke?
I don't think broadcasting is a joke.
Broadcasting just one word can kill a person.
How could I dare
think it is a joke?
Everyone who watched...
will never claim Dal-po stole the quiz questions.
Isn't that cool?
This place is filled with...
people who talk rubbish based on guesses and assumptions.
It's full of people who abuse authority with microphones and cameras.
I've decided on my career.
Hey! You can't change it if you write with a pen!
Write with a pencil.
I won't change it. I've made up my mind.
I'm going to become a reporter
and I'll make it to the broadcasting station.
The fact that I'm breathing the same air as those disgusting morons
makes me sick to my stomach!
So, I would rather die
than to come back here.
Did that answer your question?
Ha-myeong! Get up! It's time for breakfast!
Just five more minutes.
Ha-myeong!
Mom?
I was putting out the fire on top of the roof
and suddenly it collapsed.
Really? And then?
Jae-myeong! Are you listening?
Yes, I am.
So, I fell five meters down,
but I wasn't hurt.
How?
Dad...
-Jae-myeong. -Ha-myeong!
You guess too. Why do you think I wasn't hurt?
Hey! What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Isn't this a dream?
What's wrong with him? Are you half asleep? What kind of dream did you have?
"A dream"?
That was a dream?
Not this?
What are you talking about?
What dreams are you talking about?
A bad...
A very bad dream.
You went into hiding after a big accident,
and Jae-myeong left mom and me.
And...
Mom...
I did that?
What? Why would I do that?
You're bad! Why did you do that?
-What? -Why did you do that?
Do I get scolded for what I did in a dream?
So, I...
resented Dad and Jae-myeong,
and didn't even bother to try to find you.
Did you, now?
Poor thing. What a frightening dream.
It's okay now.
I know.
It's ridiculous,
right?
I should heat this plate of japchae for 30 seconds, right?
Why are you...
Why are you here?
Uncle Dal-po.
She can't be here. That means this is a...
It's a dream.
What's wrong with you?
So? Where did you fall so that you weren't injured?
That's right. I didn't finish.
I fell into cow manure.
-That's gross. -How gross.
"Gross"? It saved my life.
It's precious.
Dad, who is she?
Jae-myeong, do you know her?
Of course.
She's our pretty little niece.
It is a dream.
It really is a dream.
I don't want to wake up.
It's lumpy.
What is?
This is lumpy.
What's wrong with you today?
It isn't a dream if I can feel it.
It's really lumpy.
It's lumpy.
It isn't a dream. It's lumpy.
OCTOBER 4TH, 2013
It's lumpy.
What kind of a dream is he having?
Hey, wake up.
I can feel it. It's lumpy.
I can feel it. It's lumpy.
-Lumpy... -You pervert!
Couldn't you wake him up nicer?
Eat up.
What's this? Oh my gosh!
What did you do to his handsome face?
-He deserved it. -What?
And honestly, Uncle Dal-po isn't handsome.
It's only because it's stuck on, that--
Hey, you!
You brat!
Watch how you speak to your uncle.
That's why you're called, Loudmouth Witch.
I'm smart and pretty.
If I speak nicely on top of that, life wouldn't be fair.
And I'm just being honest, not vulgar.
It's true that Uncle Dal-po has no style.
Dal-po, tell your niece to please have a sense of shame.
-In-ha, have a sense of-- -Uncle Dal-po.
Would you tell dad that I have a sense of shame?
Ask her how someone wasting time and money for three years after
finishing college and is still trying to be a reporter dares
to complain about her uncle who drives a taxi to support the family.
Why don't you just become a rapper?
Uncle, tell dad that I made it to the final round of interviews,
and that if I make it, he can't complain about reporters again.
Tell her that's nothing to be proud of
after studying for three years,
and that if she fails again, she must abide by the contract.
Whether you fail or make it,
I won't have to put up with this starting tomorrow.
Thank goodness.
It has been three years. What is wrong with you?
If you fail again, would that be the 36th time?
No, it would be the 35th time.
And I'll make it this time.
You said that 35 times too.
There are ten interviewees in the final round.
I heard that only a few will be cut.
I couldn't possibly be one of them.
CONTRACT
I hear we picked ten for the final round of interviews?
They say we picked a lot because we skipped last year.
I hope we got some useful ones.
I don't know about useful,
-but there was a shocking one. -Who?
-One of them has the Pinocchio syndrome. -What?
No way. How can you do investigative journalism if you can't lie?
I know.
She must have an incredible resume,
-or great connections. -Yes. she has connections.
She is Ms. Song's daughter.
Really? Ms. Song had a daughter?
I thought she was single.
I just found out.
Still, how could they pick someone with Pinocchio syndrome?
Why not?
If she is Ms. Song's daughter, we have to pick her no matter what.
She'd be huge even if she remotely takes after Ms. Song.
Hey. Ms. Song is overrated.
She steals stories from juniors, fabricates, exaggerates...
Ms. Song!
RETURN OF THE QUEEN, CHIEF SONG CHA-OK
Over here!
-Here. -Remember me? I'm in city desk...
Why is the reporter of city desk not at the police station?
How could I not come to greet you?
I wanted to lay out a red carpet but I figured you'd complain,
so, I only took it this far.
Isn't it cute?
Yes, so cute I almost cursed.
-When is the editorial meeting tomorrow? -Do you plan to go there?
Why? Shouldn't I?
Of course, you should.
As the chief of city desk and our new anchor, you should go.
How was Washington?
Were you satisfied with the food there?
I had sent you some kimchi.
Have a look.
Dad, what's this?
I heard you broke up with Sae-eun last month.
She's the daughter of the owner of a nearby pizza place.
Do you want to meet her?
It's okay. I have a new girlfriend.
You're so quick.
Dal-po, you're so popular.
What is she like this time?
Her name is Hae-sung. She is kind, smart and has a nice voice.
Didn't you say Sae-eun was kind, smart and had a nice voice too?
Did I?
I should wash up.
I guess kind and smart girls with a nice voice is Uncle Dal-po's type.
Look down.
Gosh, you should get some new clothes.
You get dumped because your style stinks.
It's done.
I wouldn't date a girl who'd dump me because of my style.
In-ha, come here.
Do you think Dal-po is that unattractive?
He stinks?
He stinks so badly that he is rotten.
So, which broadcasting station is your interview with?
If I tell you, will you keep it a secret from dad?
Why should I keep it a secret?
Don't tell me...
Yes, you're right.
It's Myeong Sin Broadcasting Station, where mom is.
-Did you let her know? -Yes.
I texted her that I made it to the final round.
I may get to see her. What should I wear?
What do you think? Do I look sharp? Smart?
-You look idiotic. -Really?
That's not good.
How about...
What?
2013 FIREWORKS FESTIVAL
Hey, what do you think?
Does this one look sharp and smart?
You look like the biggest idiot in the entire world.
What's your problem?
Are you stupid? Do you really think that's your mom's number?
Of course. I would've gotten a text if it wasn't.
You would've gotten a text if it were.
My mom is very busy.
Is she too busy to text her daughter for ten years?
Then, it's one of two things.
She has a new number or she doesn't care about you.
Hey, push properly...
You must have guessed that if she hasn't replied--
She was working in Tokyo and Washington. It wasn't easy to reply.
I didn't know they didn't have phones in Tokyo or Washington.
Don't be sarcastic.
Why do you and dad want to make mom into an evil witch?
I feel bad for you because expectations always lead to disappointments.
I'll never be disappointed.
Because I won't believe anything you and dad accuse her of.
-It's a fact, not an accusation. -No, it's an accusation.
Dal-po, have you ever...
met my mom?
I believe only what I see, like I believed in you eight years ago.
-Hey, that's different. How is-- -No!
They're the same.
I didn't believe it when the kids accused you without proof.
And I was right.
So, stop accusing my mom without proof.
Why should we apologize to All Zeros?
You spread rumors without any proof.
Do you have proof that he stole the quiz questions?
Proof? The lowest-ranked student in school got a perfect score.
What better proof is there?
That's not proof but speculation.
We are here for your safe driving, Haesung Navigation System.
Please, put on your seatbelt.
Hae-sung,
what should I do?
Drive safely.
-Crossword... -See you later.
puzzle?
What is this?
Oh, my. Dal-po left his wallet.
What?
Oh, no. Go after him.
He probably hasn't left yet.
What are you doing? Why don't you hurry up and give him the wallet?
Okay.
Dal-po!
Dal-po...
IDENTIFICATION CARD CHOI DAL-PO
Get in. I'll give you a ride.
It's okay.
Get in. It's cold.
I'm not cold.
Fine, I'm cold. But I won't take your taxi.
Why? It costs more than the bus.
And you're a cheap, mean uncle who charges his own niece!
I won't charge you.
Really?
Really?
Yes.
TAXI
Entering an accident zone.
Drive safely.
Do you want to buy my dream? It was awesome.
What was it about?
It was about seeing people I really miss.
Is that a good dream?
Buy it.
If it is a good dream, you'll meet your mom and be happy.
How much is it?
Ten thousand won.
Hey.
One thousand won.
Five thousand won. Or forget it, it's a waste for me to sell it.
Okay, deal.
-What's this? -It's sort of like a receipt.
You're so childish.
You're a grown-up. What is this?
Drive slowly. It's too shaky.
By the way, who are the people in your dream?
-What? -You said you really miss them.
Who are they?
It's none of your business.
SEOUL POLICE HEADQUARTERS REPORTERS' LOUNGE
MYEONGSEONG DAILY
MSC NEWS IS HERE WITH YOU
As soon as she returned from Washington,
she becomes chief of city desk and the nine o'clock news anchor.
Now, that's unusual.
The ratings for our news program hit rock bottom recently.
Since the ratings were so poor compared to your news program,
they decided to take a big gamble, I guess.
I guess. It will be win all or lose all.
"Win all or lose all"?
What's the win?
Above all, Ms. Song's resume is packed.
She was the first female head of city desk at a broadcasting station.
And she went overseas twice as a foreign correspondent.
By the look of it, her career is legendary.
As a reporter, she takes good care of her body too.
KOREAN REPORTERS MARATHON
She finished a full marathon...
and won a beer-drinking contest too.
Plus, she is attractive
and has good showmanship as a reporter.
I get the "win all". What's the "lose all"?
Her showmanship is the problem.
She's more like an entertainer than a reporter.
Her showmanship was famous since the beginning of her career.
Was it ten years ago?
I think it was the kindergarten bus accident.
Do you remember her reporting while holding a child's shoe?
Five-year-old Jae-min left
-this behind... -Of course.
My mother cried while watching that.
She bought that shoe at a store.
No way.
-Really? -Yes, and that isn't all.
When the Gangnam bridge was submerged,
the other reporters were knee-deep in the water...
The Gangnam bridge is submerged every year...
She was the only one who reported waist-deep in the water.
-How? -She was kneeling while she was reporting
-to exaggerate the flood. -Did you get it?
That's not exaggerating. That's fraud.
Of course. She's the reason why we're called MSG.
-What? -Hey, you.
She's still your superior. Have some loyalty.
A reporter must tell the truth.
Who cares if she's my superior?
The sword of criticism should be sharper the higher you go.
You sounded like a real reporter just now.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Trying to alter suggested searches
by typing in "Handsome reporter Kim Gong-ju" is...
a fabrication too.
It isn't fabrication.
This is nothing compared to Ms. Song.
MSC NEWS IS HERE WITH YOU
How would you like it?
I want to put on her make-up.
Are you interviewing to be an announcer?
Not an announcer, but a reporter.
Announcer, reporter. Aren't they the same thing?
They're different. They're completely different.
How are they different?
I want something smart and intellectual.
Can you do it?
Something smart and intellectual...
Okay! I got it!
I got it. I know exactly what to do with you.
Give her an announcer's make-up.
MOM
GOOD LUCK.
What is it?
I got a text from my mom.
So?
I got a text.
How is this possible? I got a text from my mom.
Do you believe it?
Why not?
Of course, you'd get a text on your phone.
It's the first time in 13 years.
This isn't a dream, is it?
It must be her first text.
I know.
She must be an outcast.
Congratulations on getting a text.
Thank you.
I'm very happy!
-Hey. -Dal-po. Don't be shocked.
Yes, I'm not shocked yet.
I got a text from my mom! She said, "Good luck"!
You think that's really from...
It's from your mom. Congratulations.
Thanks! Your dream must be for real.
How did it work so quickly?
I know. I feel good about today.
What do you think?
Do you think I'll pass the interview?
What?
-Yes. -Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Okay! I'll call when I'm done.
Hae-sung, I feel like I sold a fake medicine in front of the ICU.
Is she naive or just stupid? She isn't a child.
School zone ahead.
Drive safely.
Yes. You're right.
She's a child. A kid with much growing up to do.
-She needs to be protected. -Drive under 30km per hour.
Is something wrong?
Sir! Is something wrong?
What should I do?
What is it?
I slipped down the hill
and hit this truck.
I scratched the front.
I need to call the owner,
but I don't have a mobile phone.
How much will this cost?
I'll take care of it, so, just go.
How could I...
I'll call the owner and talk to him. You can go.
-Can I really go? -It's okay.
Thank you!
There's no number.
I SCRATCHED YOUR CAR PLEASE CALL ME
LITTLE BROTHER
Hello?
No, I'm not driving now.
My wallet?
Yes, I'll come to pick it up.
It's fine.
Don't tell me...
VACANCY
TAXI
IDENTIFICATION CARD CHOI DAL-PO
You can't send both Dal-po and me to college?
If our seaweed harvest hadn't failed,
we could've sent you both, but...
Does Dal-po want to go to college too?
He hasn't said so, but I'm sure he does.
He got the top score on his finals again.
If we were to decide based on grades,
Dal-po should go, not me.
-I'm joining the army. -What?
"The army"?
Yes, I enlisted.
I'll go as soon as I graduate.
If you're doing this because of me--
It isn't because of you, so, calm down.
Let's go with In-ha. I'm not interested in college.
There it is.
I didn't even know I left my wallet behind.
This was in your wallet.
Well, that...
That's a leftover from In-ha's application.
She left her photos behind, so, I brought them to her.
She's so absent-minded.
Really? Is that all?
Of course. What else could it be?
You don't have any strange ideas, do you?
What "strange ideas"?
Well...
If not, that's good.
I'll hold on to this photo.
Your girlfriend will get those "strange ideas."
You don't want that, do you?
Yes.
2013 MSC NEWS REPORTERS FINAL INTERVIEW
MSC NEWS IS HERE WITH YOU
Mom, I'm finally here.
I can feel you.
Can you feel me?
What a weird one.
FINAL INTERVIEW LOCATION
Excuse me.
Is Reporter Song Cha-ok among the interviewers?
Yes. She's a total ice queen.
She's really scary, so, be careful.
Really? Thank goodness.
Thank you. Thank you so much!
Choi In-ha, please come in.
Yes, Sir.
She is an overly confident weirdo.
FINAL INTERVIEW LOCATION
Take a seat.
INTERVIEWER SONG CHA-OK
Hello, I'm number 423, Choi In-ha.
Have a seat.
Yes, Ma'am.
She told me to sit.
She told me to sit in case I'm nervous.
It says here that you have the Pinocchio syndrome.
-Is that correct? -Yes.
You know that there is not a single reporter
with the Pinocchio syndrome in Korea, do you not?
Why do you think that is?
To be honest, I don't know.
Why not?
The inability to lie can be a weakness to a reporter.
No, I believe it is actually a strength.
A reporter relays the truth.
If the news is told by a report who cannot lie,
I think the viewers will trust it more.
No, I'm sure of it.
A reporter who can tell only the truth.
You sound like a rookie.
Was I that naive when I started?
Yes, you are very alike.
He said that we're alike.
How about a simple test?
If you can pass this test without hiccupping,
I'll agree that you deserve to be a reporter.
Can you do it?
Yes.
Here. These are business cards for two restaurants.
Pick one.
HARANGCHAE HYANG
We received tip-offs that both restaurants
permit patrons to smoke illegally.
We plan to report on them
after we record the phone calls with the owners.
Shall I go first?
Yes.
SPEAKER, RECORD
-Hello? -I'm the secretary of Gosung Securities.
Can I reserve a room for tomorrow at seven o'clock?
-How many people are there? -Four.
And they all smoke. That's fine, isn't it?
Yes, as long as they smoke in the room.
People are smoking as of this now too.
Please, reserve the room for me then.
That's simple, right?
You try it now
without hiccupping.
If she can't lie,
making that call would be impossible for her.
She is determined to fail her.
How cruel. Is she really her mother?
HARANGCHAE, SPEAKER
Hello?
I have a question.
Do you permit smoking there by any chance?
Why do you ask?
I...
We received a tip-off so, I wanted to check.
"A tip-off"?
You're crazy.
if you can't conduct a simple investigation like this...
how can you become a reporter?
If you want a story,
a reporter must tell countless lies
as necessary.
The truth floats to the top
on the lies like oil on water.
This is why
someone with the Pinocchio syndrome cannot become a reporter.
FINAL INTERVIEW LOCATION
-Excuse me. -Sure.
What are you doing here?
I wanted to check something.
May I see your phone?
Why?
MOM
END CALL
It wasn't you.
It really wasn't you.
Dal-po was right.
Ms. Song! Should we go ahead?
No, I'm coming.
-Excuse me. -Mom.
I...
missed you a lot.
She's a mother after all.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I didn't have enough free time to miss you.
Good job today.
How about some tea before the meeting?
-Yes. -It sounds good.
I'll prepare the tea.
We'll go with a vintage feel
and make it soft and warm.
You are worse than a thief.
MOM
Why did you do it?
Couldn't you send me one text saying you weren't my mom?
Why did you steal my texts?
Because of you, I foolishly...
I've waited...
and waited for ten years...
Why did you do it?
Why did you steal my texts and make me feel so pathetic?
I'm sorry.
I'm very sorry.
I'm sorry...
CALL-TAXI
UNCLE DAL-PO
NIECE
I'm with mom right now, so, I can't talk.
That idiot.
What did your mom say?
She said I've become so pretty that she almost didn't recognize me.
She apologized for not calling me for all this time.
She said she missed me and hugged me.
You're not lying, are you?
I mean it. Your dream was real.
I'm sure you'll meet those people from your dream...
as I did.
Shall I pick you up?
No, I can go alone.
Miss, why are you crying so much?
Are you sick?
I don't think...
I don't think I'll be able to stop hiccupping.
TAXI
She's fine. She'll get over it.
Don't worry about her.
I'll hold on to this photo.
Your girlfriend will get those "strange ideas."
You don't want that, do you?
Right, I don't.
Entering an accident zone. Drive safely.
Darn it!
The prosecutor plans to charge...
Many people believe it is too light a penalty for a man
who sent nine firefighters to their death...
To the Doyang intersection, please.
Yes, Ma'am.
Aren't you on MSC News?
You're a correspondent in Washington, right?
Yes, I am.
Awesome. Would you give me your autograph when you get off?
I don't do autographs.
Actually, my friend made it to the final interviews at MSC today.
Can you tell me the results?
Who was it?
Her name is Choi In-ha. Do you remember her?
I think she failed.
I knew it.
May I ask why she failed?
She has the Pinocchio syndrome.
Is that why she failed? Because she can't lie?
Why don't you ask her? May we go quietly now?
You didn't fail her because she's your daughter, right?
Who are you?
I'm In-ha's uncle.
Pull over.
In-ha has no uncle that I know of. Who are you?
I'm Choi Dal-po. Your ex-father-in-law
adopted me.
Are you being this rash just because
of such weak relationship?
It seems like you want to act like her uncle.
Then, do it right.
Shouldn't you stop your niece from pursuing impossible dreams?
Is it impossible for someone who can't lie to become a reporter?
There is not a single reporter with the Pinocchio syndrome in Korea.
I didn't ask for statistics,
-but the reason. -Statistics is the reason.
Don't you think there is a reason why there is...
not a single one?
BEEF ENTRAILS
Who are you texting?
Someone left their number saying that they hit my truck
and offered to reimburse me but I'm going to say it's okay.
What? Why do you waste such a good opportunity?
Use it to fix up the truck.
Give that to me. I'll get you your money.
You punk.
It's fine.
They just scratched the bumper.
This is the truck owner. I'm sorry I took so long to reply.
Don't worry about the bumper.
I saw your family picture
from your truck the other day.
You have a mother and a little brother, right?
Why haven't you ever told me that?
They both died.
Really?
You still haven't heard from your dad?
No.
I drove around and searched the entire country...
but I couldn't find him.
I looked so carefully that if someone told me to
draw a map of Korea, I could draw every little detail.
Hey. No news is good news.
I'm sure he's doing well somewhere.
You got the waste-disposal plant demolition job, right?
Yes.
It's big, so, they're going to demolish it with dynamite.
Why? Are you interested?
Yes. If there is a room, would you get me in?
Sure, why not?
-Thank you. -Sure.
Are you trying to rob us blind?
You need to sign a contract when you borrowed our money!
I know.
He has no shame.
"Shame"? How dare you.
You can't do this to me.
When you started that fire
in the night duty room,
-do you know what I did-- -Stop that.
That again? Enough already.
It's been over ten years.
What?
Let's talk about it.
Let's set things straight.
Yes, we started the fire,
but the firefighters died because of you!
You said we were in the night duty room
and the chief firefighter went in that fire to look for us!
You always run your mouth whenever you drink!
No, you are the one who you ran your mouth
and that is why that chief firefighter took all the blame!
Hey!
Are you okay?
You need to get to a hospital right away.
What are you doing?
What? Okay!
-Where are you going? -Wait.
I need to check something.
What is it? Do you know them?
Hey!
They lied?
They lied.
MESSAGES
Thank you. Call me if there is a problem later.
I'm Choi Dal-po.
Dad, I'm home.
Hey, Dal-po.
When was the last time
you spoke to In-ha today?
Earlier around five o'clock. Why?
Oh, no. What did she do?
I think she ran away from home.
She took every book from her room.
She won't answer her phone either.
-What? -What do we do?
Goodness.
Dal-pyeong went to look for her a long time ago,
but it seems like he hasn't found her yet.
What do we do?
That brat runs away from home when others are getting married at her age.
In-ha!
Choi In-ha!
Ha-myeong.
Do you want to go and watch fireworks with me?
In-ha.
Choi In-ha!
IDENTIFICATION SLIP
No way.
Goodbye.
my dreams...
My everything.
In-ha.
This is too cruel.
Nothing is going right...
for me.
In-ha. Choi In-ha!
You're there, right?
Choi In-ha!
Open up right now. You're not thinking of anything bad, right?
-Hey! -Oh, no.
Oh, no.
In-ha!
In-ha. Choi In-ha!
In-ha.
In-ha. Choi In-ha!
In-ha.
In-ha!
What's wrong with him? Why is he freaking out?
In-ha!
Did he see me?
Don't come closer.
Thank goodness.
I can see you, In-ha.
He saw me.
I know everything. I know you failed,
and that your mother isn't what you expected.
If you do, can't you just pretend like you don't know?
I...
want to lie and act like I'm fine like everyone else.
But I can't...
That's why I'm doing this.
You don't have to act fine.
I know how upset you are.
At least, in front of me...
Why are you so slow?
Can't you just leave me alone at times like these?
I'm sorry.
I guess my dream wasn't very good.
I graduated from college. I moved to Seoul.
I applied to a TV station for the first time, but I failed.
I failed again.
This is the 33rd time.
Mom, you know that my birthday is coming up, right?
I don't want anything.
I just want to see you.
Or even a call...
or even a text.
Son, you're home late. Did you just finish work?
Mother, I want to meet her.
My son has such broad shoulders.
Meet who?
You mean that Pinocchio?
Leave them. I'm going to burn all of them.
Are you giving up on being a reporter and your mom?
Yes.
Why do you keep lying when you can't?
Then, what do I do? I promised Dad.
I can't remain unemployed for the rest of my life!
I can't face...
I can't face you.
Me? Why?
Do you think I'm stupid?
I know you gave up college for me,
but do you think I like living off of you?
I have...
conscience too, so...
throw these out. I feel so free knowing that it's over!
Liar.
Fine, I'm lying.
But what can I do? I don't have any other way!
Statistics is the reason.
Don't you think there is a reason why there is
not a single one?
It's just prejudice.
It's common sense.
Your common sense says that an honest person can't be a reporter?
Let go of me. I don't need any of it!
Definitely. Never.
How could you say "never" and conclude on
someone's life so easily?
How many lives did your common sense misjudge? You're a reporter!
It seems like you want to criticize me.
How pathetic.
Wolves don't bark at tigers.
Only ignorant puppies do.
Nothing is more foolish and weaker than groundless criticism.
Do you even know what a reporter is...
that you bark at me?
I need them.
-What? -I need
these books.
You're correct. I don't know about reporters.
I apologize for talking when I know nothing.
I was out of line.
It's fine as long as you know.
Why do you need the books?
Are you going to sell them?
No.
I want to become a reporter now.
Just like you.
What?
So...
I'll learn.
After I learn about what a reporter is, I'll come to you.
As a wolf, not a puppy.
I'll bark...
properly.
In-ha, let's become reporters together.
What?
After 13 years, you want to meet her?
Yes.
If my son wants to meet her, he must meet her.
What should I do?
Should I find her and bring her here?
No.
I'll go to her myself.
You stopped hiccupping.
