34 YEARS AGO

Thank you.

As Miss Onion,

I'll spread the beauty and need for onion.

I will be the best Miss Onion.

I'm the first Miss Onion,

Jin Jeong-hye. Please remember me!

She's no prettier than me.
How did she come in first?

THE 1ST MISS ONION PAGEANT

I hate eating alone.

I'm done. Can I get some gum?

Stop it.

-Sae-u.
-Yes?

I want to get married right away.

I don't want to go to the hospital.

I like everything about you,
but you're too busy.

I know.

You'll have time for the wedding, right?

You won't bail on the day our wedding,
saying you have a surgery, right?

-Sae-u.
-Yes?

-Should we register our marriage first?
-What?

Why won't you answer me?

My mom said

to live with you a little longer
and then do it.

Don't you trust me?

It's not that I don't trust you.

Stop it! Seriously.

Let's do it.

I always listen to my mom.

Let's do it. Please?

Without telling my mom.

Should we do it today?

Should I do it? You're busy.

I've been too obedient.

I'll go after we eat, okay?

It said just because things are hard,
don't only look at my feet,

but lift my head and look at the stars.

What about yours?

THE PERSON BEFORE YOU
IS YOUR TRUE LOVE

I threw it away.

For real?

Without reading it?

Without reading it.

Weren't you curious?

I was afraid it would come true,
so I threw it away.

Because it shouldn't.

What the heck? You acted all tough,

but you couldn't read that tiny
piece of paper, and threw it away?

And you call yourself a man?

Are you busy tomorrow?

Now that I hired the cooks,

tomorrow is like the grand opening.

Be my first customer.

You just took off last time
without eating.

The jjajangmyeon.

Anything.

Anything?

Yes.

Anything.

Be...

my first customer.

What should I make her?

SUATEE GINGER AND GARLIC ON MEDIUM HEAT

Isn't that Pung's recipe journal?

No, it isn't.

If you give me a copy of it,

I'll keep silent
about the fact that you stole it.

Mr. Thief.

"The difference a between
the flavor of fire and burnt flavor."

SEOK DAL-HUI

The Yong said he'd give a bonus...

to whoever removes this.

I'll give it a try.

I'm sorry.

I can't do it.

I don't think I can do it
since I'm a woman.

Didn't you win
the arm-wrestling competition

at the hotel sports festival last time?

I'll give it a try.

Stop it!

Hey. Pull out the knife, not the door!

I think this is lodged in there
because of Pung's grudge.

It can't be forced out by strength.

I think it'll only come out
if he removes it himself.

Stop it. How would we look
if you do remove it?

D

D

What is it?

Are you still sleeping?

Did I wake you?

No.

Have you had breakfast?

Are you busy?

Why?

Let's meet in front of Hungry Frypan
in 30 minutes.

Okay.

You have to come.

Okay.

Are you sleeping?

-Are you sleepy?
-I'm not sleeping.

See you later, Mr. Light.

Okay.

Okay.

Who was that?

It's so early.

Just someone.

Of course it's someone. It isn't no one.

What?

-There is someone.
-I do not.

-You just said there is.
-Shit.

You're not dealing with the Cockeyes
alone again, are you?

Unless it's about a relationship
with a woman,

don't keep anything from me.

-Okay.
-That wasn't convincing.

Let's go eat.

Eat without me.

I may have to eat with this person.

-The woman who just called?
-Man.

Man.

You're a terrible liar. I'm out.

Okay.

Still, since it's our first day,
let me properly introduce myself.

I'm Seo Pung. Let's do our best.

Shit.

You were recommended by Ms. Chae,

so you must know each other.

But she's our knife, Chae Seol-ja.

I'll do my best.

He's our noodles chef, Im Geok-jeong.

It's nice to meet you.

We have another cook
who hand-pulls noodles.

He'll come down.

You.

You weren't fired,
so work with Pung starting today.

I'll do whatever it takes to send you

into Pung's kitchen one by one,
starting with the CEO.

So don't worry.

-Okay?
-Yes, Boss.

DEBT AND SHADOW

Okay.

Let's wait for the first customer

of our restaurant.

-Yes, Master!
-Yes, Master!

HUNGRY FRYPAN
CHINESE RESTAURANT

What are you doing here?

Do you have a blind date?

I'll be hiring servers later,
so come watch if you want.

Watch?

You can't hire anyone without my consent.

Did you forget?

That's why I'm telling you to come watch.

Why else would I ask you to come?

Hey.

HUNGRY FRYPAN
CHINESE RESTAURANT

Why did you bring a guy flowers?

-Seriously.
-Still.

Gosh.

Congrats on your grand opening.

I hope it'll be a huge success.

Okay. Thanks.

That's right.

I won't be the CEO.

I won't get a job through connections.

I thought I should make myself clear.

Don't do this again, okay?

I'm hungry.

Hear that?

She won't be the CEO.

What happened?

Why is she refusing to be the CEO?
Gosh.

I'd say yes in a heartbeat.

That's odd.

-Boss.
-Boss?

Boss.

What's wrong with him?

-I think something happened between them.
-It's weird.

Boss is weird for making her CEO,

and the woman is weird for refusing.

Don't you think something is going on
between them?

Why are you and Boss matching today?

Are you going somewhere nice?

We'll know what's going on
if we lock them up

and see what they do when they're alone.

That's the best way.

You want to lock them up?

-Where?
-I'll do it.

-When?
-After they eat.

How?

When we got dirt on debtors
and tried to collect,

we locked them up and cornered them.

We did that hundreds of times.

Are you ready to order, ma'am?

Am I really your first customer?

Are you ready to order, ma'am?

I'll have anything.

Pardon?

You said you'd make me anything.

Yes. Anything.

Anything. That's right.

Why don't you

add "Anything" to your menu?

The dish that the chef recommends
using the freshest ingredients

that the chef bought that day. Anything.

Yes. It'll change every day.

It isn't preset.

If they order Anything,

the customer won't care or be nervous

about what will be served.

They will trust the chef unconditionally
and wait.

Why? Because Anything
will definitely be delicious.

However, it must be super delicious,
using freshly-bought ingredients,

from that very day

with the optimal flavor of fire.

The tongue is the most cunning organ
in the human body.

It's cunning when you talk, when you eat,

and when you kiss.

But if they eat Anything

that you cook for them,

their cunning nature disappears.

Because Anything will have

your sincerity, in both price and flavor.

Because you will do anything you can

for the customers who trust you
and leave everything to you.

They trust you unconditionally after all.

Don't you agree?

What do you think?

I'm hungry.

Okay. Sure.

One order of Anything.

I'll prepare it right away.

I'm hungry.

What did the first customer want?

Dong-sik, pull noodles.
Geok-jeong, prepare dumpling skins.

Seol-ja, prepare an order
of seafood jjajangmyeon.

For dim sum, we'll make shrimp shumai.

-Yes, Master!
-Yes, Master!

Yes... Yes, Master!

Congrats on your grand opening.

I'm nothing special.

Knife! I want whole shrimps!

Yes, Master!

The thinner the better for the skin.

Yes, Master!

Chef! Will this do?

I'll make dim sum

that you can see right into.

The inside must be visible.

-Redo them.
-Yes, Master.

What?

DEBT AND SHADOW

Here is your Anything.

Seafood jjajangmyeon

and shrimp shumai.

Enjoy.

Can't you eat...

a little prettier?

This is my first jjajangmyeon this year.

It's delicious.

It's delicious.

HIRING COOKS

If you're done eating,

Boss would like to see you briefly
in the Sin Saimdang room.

Sin Saimdang?

The 50,000-won bill.

The first customer loved the food,

so all that remains is for us to succeed.

It was her first jjajangmyeon this year.

Maybe she starves all the time.

I'll check on the ingredients

before more customers come.

Yes, Master.

You're on our side.

Unless you're going to work like family,

just quit and leave.

I heard you're a gangster.

You seem more like a gangster.

Just fight already.

Men are animals who need
to determine ranks like cavemen

even in the 21st century,

whether it's in the kitchen
or out in the fields.

The kitchen is a jungle. Fight.

Hey, lady.

What's your relationship?

We're family.

Didn't you hear him?

We have to work like family
in the kitchen.

How dare you

ruin the family teamwork
with your bad attitude and crap?

Do you want to be humiliated
like Maeng-dal?

Talk like that, and you'll get hurt.

I won't go easy on you
just because you're a woman.

Look down, punk. Show Seol-ja respect.

What, punk?

You look like a mountain bandit...

I'll get you, Mountain Bandit.

Hey!

We need to start for real now,

but there's a lot we don't have.

-I'll go shopping tonight.
-Yes, Master.

Tell me if you need anything.

Chopping board, knife, anything.

Then may I say a few words?

Of course.

Speak casually.

How long will you use so many words
in a busy kitchen?

You may be young,
but you're still our master.

The master is the sky.

Talk down to us.

-Do you mean it?
-Shit. That's not it.

-Really?
-Not that either.

-Shall I?
-Yes, Master.

Hey! Not there!

I'm a newlywed.

Hey!

Mistreat Seol-ja, and you die.

Yes, sir.

That hurts.

Boss.

The girl wants to see you.

CEO DU CHIL-SEONG

DEBT AND SHADOW

There.

Did you enjoy the food?

Yes.

Look.

Mr. Light, want to look at this?

It's my husband.

I don't need to.

What do you mean, you don't need to?
Look at it.

Not anyone can have a crush.

Why would I bring you flowers?

Did you think I brought them for you?

Why did you get hurt?
You said it was a crush.

You say it's a crush,

so why are you acting so obvious?
You're making me uncomfortable.

I can't stand the world as it is.

But you make me angrier at myself.

It's frustrating and driving me crazy.

I mean, why do you like me?

I really don't get it.

-Why do you like me?
-Well...

Oh my gosh!

Well...

Hey!

Why do you like me?

A crush means you don't get hurt
or hurt the other person.

Does Julia Roberts hurt you?

No, right?

I'm not all that.
It's because you don't know me.

I have no money, I'm immature...

You have no idea how many guys

ran away after dating me

and dumped me.

There's a truckload. Hold on.

Did you hear that?

Hear that?

I can fart whenever I want after I eat.

I don't take a dump when I need to.

I set a time and go as I please.

Look. I get food stuck in my teeth
all the time,

so I get cavities all the time.

I bet I have something stuck now, too.

Look.

I'm really...

sorry,

frustrated,

and feel like I'm wronging you.

I feel bad for you, I pity you,
and you make me nervous.

I'm afraid I'll want to understand
your feelings for me, so please!

Please.

Don't like me.

Okay?

Please.

The fact that I like someone...

who's married...

You're so frustrating. What about it?

I thought I was psychotic.

That's it?

I thought I was a jerk.

You were wrong, right?

I was wrong.

You can't do it ever again, okay?

Love isn't a one way street.
It takes two people.

Okay?

Okay.

You can't have a crush on me anymore.

Pinky swear.

Come on.

"I'll hate this woman from now on."

Repeat after me.

I'll hate you.

You'll ignore me.

I'll ignore you.

I'm annoying.

You're annoying.

Curse me, too.

Now.

-Stop it.
-Bitch.

"I even lent her money.
That selfish bitch.

I even gave her a job as a CEO.
That crazy bitch."

I guess you still don't like me.

Me too.

Let's end it.

What do you mean, "Let's end it"?

I'll end it. By myself.

Just curse me out.

I've lost my mind.

Gosh.

Crazy jerk.

Crazy asshole.

Good.

They pinky-swore already.

Look at them.

That's an affair. She's married.

Shit.

Boss fell for a married woman?

She is clearly a troublemaker.

You can't have a crush on me anymore.

-Pinky swear.
-Turn it off.

Why are you listening to this crap?

You'll ignore me.

I'll ignore you.

I'm annoying.

Curse me, too. Now.

Shit. How much should we curse her--

Bitch.

This troublemaker...

Do we have to just let her be?

"I even gave her a job as a CEO.
That crazy bitch."

Moron.

DEBT AND SHADOW

He looks better than yesterday.

The flavor of fire is?

Not burnt,
but immediately before it's burnt!

With people, love, and cooking,

it must be the moment
just before it's burnt.

How do you know
it's the moment before it's burnt?

Pardon?

How do you know
it's the moment before it's burnt?

The flavor of fire

is when the ingredients
swallow up the fire.

A burnt flavor is when the fire
swallows up the ingredients.

-Yes, Master!
-Yes, Master!

-Yes, Master!
-Yes, Master!

Will it be burnt and trashed?

Or will it have the flavor of fire?

It's a 0.01 second difference.

The ingredients and the chef
are one and the same.

Thus, the chef

must know how to control fire!

I heard

you were hiring.

You came a lot later
than you said you would.

I struggled with it.

I can't work with someone
who is not punctual.

You're out.

What? But...

I'm sorry. I'll never be late again.

Please at least let me take a test.

Back in the day,

I won the very first Miss Onion Pageant.

I'm Jin Jeong-hye.

If you'd hire me, I'll fill the hall

with a big onion smile.

A former Miss Korea
is running a noodle soup place

on the top floor of the department store
at the intersection,

and watches the register.

People crowd there
to see her beautiful face.

She was my competitor,

but she lost the Miss Onion Pageant to me

and came in first
in the Miss Korea Pageant.

If I had tried for Miss Korea

instead of marrying my successful husband
at such a young age,

she would not have become Miss Korea.
Obviously.

Who chooses food based on people's looks?

That restaurant is busy
because the food is good.

It isn't because of the Miss Korea
at the counter.

You can't rely on your looks
when serving tables.

You lack hospitality
and aren't service-minded.

You're out.

What?

That's not good.

It's closing time.

Please leave.

We have dishes to wash.
Do you want to try that?

Pardon?

Me?

Were you talking to me?

Of course not, right?

That's why I mentioned it.

Okay, then.

I'll go home and contemplate it

with a sincere heart.

If that's something you need
to contemplate sincerely,

you can't wash dishes and do dirty work.

You're out before you go home.

Then...

I won't contemplate it.

I'll do it.

I will do it.

Still, you're out.

Why this time?

I won't be lazy.

I'll work hard at washing the dishes

until the skin on my hands crack.

Please let me do it.

You can start tomorrow.

Do you mean it?

Why did I pass?

Because you're cute.

HUNGRY FRYPAN

Madam, you can't tell Master Pung

that you came because I told you to.

I didn't.

If he finds out our relationship,

all three of us will be fired on the spot.

He may seem soft,

but he's like fire.

Congratulations on your job.

Geok-jeong,

I was so nervous,
I thought I was going to die.

You did great, Madam.

Sae-u, come quickly.

I miss you.

Yes, sir. I'm on my way now.

Please tell Immar I'll be there soon.

He must be sensitive today
because of his chemo.

Yes. Okay.

-Hello?
-Hello?

Do you know where Na Oh-jik is?

Who is this?

Where is Oh-jik right now?

Who is this?

Can we meet
on the first floor of Giant Hotel

right now?

Hi, Pung! How have you been?

Good, thanks to you.

Are you working again?

Of course.

Where?

I left in such a rush,

that I left my recipe journal there.

I know I left it there.

It's probably in my locker.

-I see.
-Would you look for it?

Sure. Okay.

-Right now.
-You mean now?

Sorry, but I left work already.

I'll go to the first floor of the hotel
to pick it up now.

Wait. Pung...

Are you insane? What's wrong with you?

Let's make a copy and return it
right away.

What?

Are you stupid? Why should we?

Just deny it and say you didn't see it.

SEOK DAL-HUI
12/30/17

-Where are you?
-She's with me. Why?

Put her on the phone now.

-What is it?
-Last December

was before Yong Seung-ryong
came to the hotel.

It was before you even met him. So why...

What did you do to our baby?

Did you abort our baby?

Without even talking to me about it?

Yes.

I was already nothing to you by then,
wasn't I?

Let's talk later.

Hang up.

Look at the time. Punk.

Let's go to bed.

-Boss.
-Hello, Boss.

Please have a seat.

What's up?

What?

My girl dumped me.

You had a girl?

I liked her more, and was royally screwed.

I'm hurting.

That's why

a man should meet a woman
who likes him more to be happy.

Is it hot?

Is that right?

All of you should just get married.

You have no idea how happy
married life is.

Give me a freaking break.

Look at your face, all busted.

Hey.

Find another girl.

-What?
-Do you...

want me to find you a girl?

It's okay.

Do you want to start dating?

You remember Seon-hui, right?

The one who was in love with you.

She still asks about you.

She says she'll close her shop
and come to you if you're willing.

Where's Maeng-dal?

Well...

Our boss,
who's better looking than Tom Cruise!

-What?
-Please date, Boss.

Just five years ago, you said

you slept with more girls
than the stars in the countryside,

but you loved fewer girls

than the stars in Seoul.

That's how many girls you've had.

Me?

When we were all together in prison.

That means I don't have a girl,

not that I have one.

The stars in the countryside are the best.

Buy some gum.

-Oh.
-What the heck?

Goodness.

Eat.

You eat.

Please leave today.

Don't piss us off
because you don't know anything.

They say the clueless bitch

rolls her eyes back
while eating lettuce wraps.

Don't you think you're eating too much?

Someone else's flesh is always tasty.

Another order, please!

It's tasty.

-Right?
-Let's go

where there's a lot of girls.

You have a girl.

Where?

Here.

Let's drink.

Hey. Give me some.

It's tasty.

Gosh.

I'm Cho Myeong-jin.
I work at the same hospital with Oh-jik.

How did you get my number?

I saw it in his phone.

You know he has a tendency
to leave it behind.

Did you sleep with him?

-No.
-Did you date?

No.

Then why are you looking for my husband?

I plan to marry Oh-jik.

What?

Hey.

He must be having a hard time
with what happened at the wedding.

He won't answer my calls.

Tell me where he is.

I live in the apartment we got together.

Everyone knows

you never lived together even for a day.

When I was studying for my specialty exam,

he didn't go home

and pulled all-nighters with me.

If I fell asleep, he'd wake me.

If I was stressed, he'd buy me a drink.

If I cried, he'd hug me.

We were so close, that rumors spread.

Oh-jik is a very caring person.

The day I found out I passed,

I got drunk and kissed him.

Don't make me laugh.

We got so drunk, that we went to a hotel.

He apologized profusely the next day
when he sobered up.

I didn't plan to tell you

if you had gotten married.

I liked him for over 10 years,
ever since I started college.

I want to marry him
and live with him for 50 years.

Please tell me where he is.

Do you think I believe you?

He even called me briefly two days ago.

Really?

What number did he call from?

He won't answer it anymore.

Did he not call you even once?

He said he was doing well
and not to worry,

but I'm worried.

But...

did you two really

love each other?

He said...

he's doing well?

Oh my gosh.

Oh my gosh.

Don't you dare move!

You son of a bitch!

I'm not mad at you.

Are you insane?

Let's talk later, okay?

Apologize.

For what?

What did Dal-hui do wrong
that she deserves to be stabbed?

What should she apologize for,
you whack job?

Dating shouldn't be this scary.

Not everyone swings knives
at their ex-girlfriends like you.

Is it because you're a chef?

What is that in your hand?

You stay out of it.

Don't apologize. You did nothing wrong.

At least apologize. Say you're sorry.

Not to me.

Apologize to yourself.

-Dal-hui.
-You asshole.

This is attempted murder!

Dal-hui.

Are you okay?

CLOSED FOR MAINTENANCE

It's clear.

Hey.

This is my livelihood, assholes.

You asshole. You're such a pain.

The number you have dialed
is not in service.

The number you have dialed
is not in service.

The number you have dialed
is not in service.

Please check...

The number you have dialed
is not in service.

Hey.

Did you get into a fight?

Did you cry?

Your eyes are all puffy.

You look like you'll faint.

You look completely fine.

Call your husband. Don't cry alone.

He won't pick up.

Did you two fight?

That jerk won't answer my calls.

That jerk won't answer only my calls.

Then do you want to drink together
and go to the bridge?

To die?

You're super mad too, right now.

They said the fine dust level
is super high today.

We won't wake up tomorrow.

We won't breathe, eat,

or think.

We won't feel betrayed or lonely.

And my wrist, which is my life,
won't hurt.

You should go to the hospital.

I don't want to. I'm going to be reckless.

Then do you want to drink together
and cheat for a day?

Cheat?

Yes.

I don't know.

It's better than dying.

-True.
-Let's cheat.

Do you like me?

Does that matter?

Yes it does.

It would be serious
if we liked each other.

True.

You're right.

Let's do it.

Come tomorrow,

we can pretend nothing happened
and ignore each other.

But I don't think you'll be able to cheat

in your current condition.

Well, do we have to touch and stuff
for it to be cheating?

Then what?

Not being alone is huge.

Do you need intimacy?

Yes.

Just kidding.

I can hold your hand.

What's that?

Garbage.

-What's that?
-Also garbage.

-Should we throw them away?
-Where?

There.

Give it to me, I'll throw it out.

No. I'll throw it out.

Should we get a room?

You must have cheated a lot.

That came so naturally.

Well, you look exhausted.

It's my first time.

Is it too expensive?

That's not the reason.

Let's go somewhere else.
Not where we threw out our garbage.

You have a point.

Let's at least know each other's age
before we cheat.

How old are you?

I'm 33.

I'm 31.

It's okay if you changed your mind
because of my age.

I always assumed you were older.

Really?

Then you can show me respect
as your elder.

Elder? Whatever.

You're totally immature.

You're right.

Where should we go?

We need to drink first
so we can lose our sense of reason.

All bad thoughts are reasonable.

You're right.

-Soju?
-Let's make it soju and beer.

Okay.

I can't do anything if I'm sober.
You're right.

This world is too hard to endure sober.

Yes.

Hey.

What?

We'll ignore each other starting tomorrow.

Naturally.

Let's not be embarrassed.

-Naturally.
-Just one night.

Okay.

I didn't know
this was the kind of woman I was.

You didn't do anything.

But I'm going to.

We didn't do anything yet.

But we're going to.

Okay.

We did it, not "going to."

So stop worrying.

This is the kind of woman you are,
and this is the kind of man I am.

What?

Sorry. I was wrong.

Don't be sorry.

That's not why.

Then?

I don't know.

You don't need to know. Don't cry.

We didn't even drink yet.
Why are we so brave already?

Drink... Should we go drink?

I didn't know
I was this kind of woman.

Me neither.

Why are you staring at me like that?
You're making me feel awkward.

Who beat your ugly face

and made it so much uglier?

You have a bruise that looks like
a squished raisin here.

Your forehead...

Is it narrower than mine?

Are you narrow-minded too?

Yes, I'm narrow-minded. I am.

Does this hurt too?

No.

Your nose is ugly too.
Your lips aren't great either.

Show me your teeth.
Let's see if you have nice teeth at least.

Are you examining a slave?
To decide how much to buy or sell me for?

I want to see if any teeth are chipped.
Say "Ah."

No.

Come on. Say "Ah."

At least this eye looks like an almond,
which I like.

Do you like almonds?

Yes.

What about tofu?

I like tofu more than rice.

Then I'll make you
spicy garlic fried almonds.

There's a Chinese dish like that?

That sounds yummy.

I'll make it for you next time.

Next time?

Then should we ignore each other
after the fried almonds?

No!

Don't make me fried almonds.

I can't forgive myself!

I'm disappointed in you!

You shouldn't do this!

I'm disappointed in you!

Shit.

Don't use your right hand.

You cunning bitch.

So you were hanging on
because of this apartment.

I can't let those assholes be.

From Pung, the head gangster,
and all the ones below him.

I'm going to drink more.

Hey! Open your eyes properly!

Can you do it with that arm?

It's dangerous. Get out!

Oh no!

What do I do?
