Episode 2

[2006]

Who are you?

It's Eul, the daughter of the owner of the sweet pancake stall.

Oh my.

My goodness. Thank you.

Grandmother! You'll freeze to death if you keep caring so much about fashion.

- Oh, it's okay! - Here.

What are you going to do, if you give me these?

I'm hot, with all these wrapped around me.

I feel so bad! I'm sorry.

I'll clean up the rest of the boxes

so go on a date with the grandpa who runs the dry cleaners.

It'd be a shame for you to go home when you're dressed so well!

The sweet pancake is 2,000 won

and the spicy rice cakes are 1,500 won. So, 3,500 won!

It's okay, Ddeul Ddeul, just go.

- Eul! - You wench.

- Hurry and pay up. - Oh, Mr. Handsome!

You have some snot! How embarrassing.

Geez.

Why are you paying? I told you to just grab whatever you wanted.

Hurry up and go. I'm sure your younger sibling and your dad are waiting.

Thank you!

Wow, looks like I gave birth to Jesus, over here. Or maybe Buddha.

Do you think we're swimming in cash? And it's not like I'm selling dirt, here!

Do you know how much debt we have?

Ddeul Ddeul's dad got hurt at the construction site

so he can't even go to work. You still want to take their money?

I do. I totally do!

Your own dad can't even buy proper clothes to wear, or food to eat!

Don't you see how skinny I'm getting?

If I just collected all the money you've given away to other people

I wouldn't have to run this kind of business on the side of the road

while freezing to death!

I'd be sitting in a posh building where there's actually a heater...

- Ah! Eul! - What's wrong with her this time?

Some punks said they were going to teach Moon Hui a lesson

and told her to go behind the gym!

Who do they think they are, to be "teaching her a lesson"?

- Why, I ought to... - Don't you dare go!

I told you not to butt into other people's business, did I not?

She's not "other people". Moon Hui is my friend.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

Hey, Eul! Eul! Eul! Hey! Are you the police?

Are you a cop? Are you Wonder Woman?

What about helping out your dad like you help out others? Huh?

That girl is my daughter? I hope you slip on some ice!

[SHIN JOON YOUNG IS SUSPENDED FOR 10 DAYS DUE TO ACTS OF VIOLENCE.]

- What's going on? - Did something happen, man?

What do you mean, my Joon Young is suspended?

- Ma'am! - Principal!

This is the mother of Shin Joon Young, who was recently suspended.

What did my Joon Young do wrong?

Some thuggish bastards approached this weak girl, so he told them to stop

and said that they shouldn't do that! So he hit them and he got hit a bit, too!

You should be giving him an award! How could you suspend him!

Ma'am.

You're the witness, so tell these teachers.

Tell them how unfairly he's being treated when all he did was try to save you!

- Why... aren't you saying anything? - Ma'am!

According to what this girl said, they never harassed her.

And all they were doing was talking, when Joon Young just started getting violent

without any provocation whatsoever!

Unbelievable. Is that...

Is that really what you told them?

Why did you lie?

Did your parents tell you to do this?

Even though he saved your life

you're going to throw the poor guy under the bus and side with the rich bastards?

They gave you some money to keep your mouth shut?

- Is that what your parents want? - Ma'am!

Evil bitch. How dare you repay his kindness this way?

- Evil bitch! - Mommy!

- How dare you do that to a student! - Mommy!

Please don't suspend my son, sir! My son's going to be a prosecutor

so if you do this to his record, you're basically giving us a death sentence.

I'll take responsibility and tell him to be more careful from now on.

He'll never be violent again. Please!

Just this once! Please!

Hey, I heard that bastard, Shin Joon Young, got suspended!

How dare he mess with us? He clearly needs to learn his place.

- Can I ask you something? - What the hell are you doing, bastard?

Hey, you still don't get it? You don't get how powerful we are.

And that lowly scum like you shouldn't ever dare mess with us.

I know, right?

Lowly scum like me got in the way of what you great beings were doing

so it shouldn't have ended so pathetically with a suspension, right?

So I was thinking that I'll just wreck just one of you

and get a full-on expulsion.

Any volunteers? Raise your hand!

Raise your hands, damn it! Damn punk. You still haven't come to your senses?

What would change even if I did come to my senses?

- What? - Will those bastards be punished fairly

without any regard for the influence that their fathers have?

Why, you little... Hey! I took pity on you because a single mom raised you

- but you... - Why are you pitying me?

Who the hell are you to look down on me?

Let go of me, right now! What the hell is wrong with you?

- Why I ought to... - Stop right there!

If you want to keep that hand, you'd better stop right there!

Is my Joon Young the neighborhood's damn punching bag? Huh?

Even punching bags rip if you beat them too much, you know.

If you keep acting this way and looking down on him, I'll call his father!

And if he comes here, there's no way you'll be able to keep your measly job.

You'll be real busy on your knees, begging for forgiveness!

- Uncle. - Oh, really now?

Then please, bring his father over here! I was wondering

just what kind of parent he is, to let his kid get to this point!

Fine, let's do that! He's busy with government affairs, you know.

But if he hears about his son being here like this, he'll drop everything

- and dash right over here! - Stop it, Uncle.

Shush, you. When his dad gets here, those bastards' damn fathers...

they're dead, even if they're city council members or the Chief Prosecutor!

Stop it, already!

How could a dead person come here? Say something that actually makes sense!

After running a DNA test on the steel pipe from the factory

where the victim worked, the DNA of the seven dead victims

as well as those of two women

were found. We will send these DNA samples to NIS...

Eat up. That's the only way you won't end up in a place like that again.

Then don't tell such ridiculous lies next time.

Well... you know... it could be the truth.

This was not the result of a mere fire. The fire was started by the perpetrator

in order to destroy much evidence as they could.

And what evidence do you have to support this theory?

What would you do if that man was your father?

What would you do if that great prosecutor was your father, huh?

I'd kill him for throwing me and Mom away

while he lives a great life, being on TV.

Hey, it's not like he did it on purpose!

That guy probably doesn't even know that you were born!

Your mom kept you hidden and ran off, so how would he know about you?

What do you mean?

Geez. Um, what I'm saying is...

I'm just saying that it's a possibility.

I'm not in my right mind because of you right now

so look at me, spouting nonsense.

Where are you going? You're not even done eating!

I'm going to go ask Mom about what you just said.

Hey! If your mom hears that I talked about him to you

her temper will burn our house down!

I'm telling you, she might go on a homicidal rampage!

Sit down.

Your father hid the fact that he was attending law school

and worked as a waiter at a karaoke bar.

Your mom used to cut fruit in the kitchen.

The two of them hit it off.

Your father really was obsessed with studying, but he sure was handsome.

Joon Young. Your mom will kill me if she knows that I told you about this!

You really can't let her know, okay?

But one day, someone showed up saying he was Choi Hyun Joon's older brother.

He told your mom, "Hyun Joon is the best law student in this country"

"and he'll become a prosecutor"

"so a woman cutting fruit in some damn pub definitely doesn't deserve him."

Mom!

Your mom may be rough on the outside, but she's so soft on the inside.

She realized all too well where she stood

and she probably would've even died for your father, if necessary.

Why are you sitting here instead of going inside?

Were you waiting for me?

Why did they let a thug who beats up people go free?

They should've just thrown your ass in jail. Why did they let you go?

There are just too many bad people in the world. They didn't have space for me.

They told me to come back if I cause trouble one more time.

What?

You didn't eat yet, right? I'm hungry, too.

I have no food for the likes of you!

If you're hungry, go back to the police station and ask for jail food!

They give you jail food in jail, not at the police station.

Geez, Mom! You're so dumb!

You're not even going to tell your son to have a taste? How stingy.

That's the reason why she's so set on making you a prosecutor

even though you're last in your class.

She wanted to make you a prosecutor so that she could face your father.

And tell him, "I raised him so well, even without you. So there."

I don't want to be tutored anymore. Fire my tutor tomorrow.

Does it make sense that we live in a half-basement

and pay 300,000 won in rent

and yet, I have a tutor who charges 1.5 million won a month?

Why did you even save that girl? Since when were you such an ally of justice?

You were the type of person who wouldn't even care

if someone was dying in front of you!

I know, right? I guess I went crazy for a second...

after I found out you were working at a bar to pay for my tutor.

Sheesh.

Wake up, Mom. I'm stupid because I take after you.

Did you honestly think that I could become a prosecutor

just because you got me a tutor?

Fine! I won't care about your future anymore.

So make money by beating people up, or become a thug and go to jail!

Do whatever the hell you want! You damned bastard.

Hello, I'm Susan...

Thank you.

Next subject.

- Oh my gosh, it's Shin Joon Young! - Oh my gosh, I can't believe it!

Hey, hey! Move over!

Damn it.

What the hell! Jerk!

You get a lot of calls from entertainment agencies, right?

I'm sure you know if you sign with us, we're on a different level.

If you have some time...

Excuse me.

Why are you ignoring me? I gave you seven notes asking you to see me.

- You're not my type. - You're not my type, either!

Since you dumped Na Ri, all she's done is cry. She won't even eat.

- What are you going to do about it? - Why should I have to do anything?

Because of you, my friend isn't eating or sleeping!

So what does that have to do with me?

I just told you that my friend is on her deathbed because of you!

Tell her to die, then.

If she dies, I'll kill you!

She's in trouble, all right? She won't eat or sleep!

She won't go to school either, and all she does is cry!

Can't you have a bit of pity?

Try to rekindle your love. You can break up with her later.

- Just until she's a bit more ready... - Is this a new kind of part-time job?

How much is she paying you to do this?

Hey!

What are you doing?

You've obviously got a screw loose. You should go to the hospital.

Want me to call your parents for you?

Come on, stop crying already! How about you eat something, okay?

I brought my dad's sweet pancakes and spicy rice cakes that you love so much.

I don't want any. I'm just going to live like this and eventually die!

Why would you die over a pathetic guy like him?

There are plenty of other guys out there, you know!

You're the Son Ye Jin of Sooyoori! There are tons of guys who are crazy for you!

I don't care about any of them, if they're not Joon Young!

Eul, you're so lucky that Joon Young is not your type!

You're so lucky that you're immune to his charms!

What brings you here to get your hair done?

I'm going to tell someone that I like them.

Who? The guy that you like?

So make sure you give me a hairstyle that'll blow him away.

Okay!

Hey, Na Ri. You know that pink dress that you have?

Can I borrow it for just one day?

Because I'm going to do something important today, okay?

You're going to get yourself a brother-in-law soon, girl!

I'll tell you who it is when you lend me your dress.

Okay, see you later! I'll swing by to pick it up from your place.

Shin Joon Young. My name is No Eul

and I've liked you for a long time.

I know you're super popular with the girls

but you're fated to be with me.

You can't escape my clutches...

You're not going to say that, are you, No Eul?

Mr. Jang Soo! Did you sell a lot of sweet pancakes today?

You wench! You're drunk, aren't you?

Drunk? I'm a high school student!

A daughter can't even act cute toward her own dad?

What? Do you need money again?

You have another friend who can't afford to go to school anymore, right?

Do you think we're loaded? Do you think I sell dirt, or something?

Do you know how much debt we have?

Dad, can you buy me some alcohol?

Crazy girl. Go home and sleep, damn it!

We really must be related, if he knows how crazy I am.

Did I wake you? You were sleeping, weren't you?

I came out to meet up with Dad, to surprise him.

I'll go on a little date with Dad, so get some sleep.

Dad!

Hey! Hey! Stop!

Hey! Stop!

Yes, this is Choi Hyun Joon.

This is Yoon Sung Ho, Mr. Choi.

Oh, yes, Assemblyman Yoon.

Just a moment.

Why are you calling so late at night?

My daughter caused a bit of trouble. I think you'll need to help her out.

We're closing up.

[THE EXECUTION OF LAW AND JUSTICE]

The person who hit your father just came in and confessed.

This person is the one who hit my father?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

No. This man isn't the one who hit my father.

The person who hit my father was a woman! Her license plate was Seoul 3-ga-3216!

- It was a foreign red sports car! - I'm sorry! I did something terrible!

Why are you apologizing, when you didn't even do anything?

You're not the one who did that to my dad! Why are you lying, Mister?

Oh, I'm coming out of the subway now.

I took the subway since there was so much traffic.

I left my car in my parking spot at the prosecutor's office.

Yeah. I'll be there in 10 minutes, so tell the Chief Prosecutor. Okay.

Oh no. Darn it. Sheesh.

You're going to the Prosecutor's Office, right?

Um, how did you know that?

You're a famous prosecutor! And you're on TV often, too.

My dream is to become a prosecutor too.

And I'm planning to go to the same college that you did.

You must be quite good in school.

Well, you know.

Your parents must be so proud of you.

You seem to be sure of your career choice

and it seems that you have the willpower to make it come true.

I have a kid of my own, so I'm speaking from experience

when I say that kids nowadays are no good.

They have no dreams or convictions, and no willpower whatsoever.

I envy your parents.

Oh, the rain stopped.

I guess it was just a shower.

- Goodbye. - Thanks for escorting me here.

I really hope to see you as a co-worker later down the line.

Yes, sir.

Student!

I'm the type of person who can't leave debts unpaid.

Can you give me just ten minutes of your time?

Oh... yes. I have time.

Um, this student hit your car.

Has my car wronged you in any way?

I came here over 20 times and asked to see you

but you kept avoiding me, saying you were busy, or not here.

So I figured that I'd have to do something like this

to get your attention.

Send everyone out.

All right, so what was so urgent that you went to such lengths to see me?

You can't end my dad's hit-and-run investigation like this.

The real perpetrator has yet to be caught.

The person who confessed wasn't the real criminal!

Well, to put it bluntly...

In an organization, there is a hierarchy

and there are specific people in charge of specific things.

I don't know why you came to see me

but I can't get involved in every single case.

The cop told me that everything changed after you intervened!

The suspect changed, the car involved changed, the witness testimony changed.

Even the prosecutor in charge of the case was reassigned.

Can you go and tell that cop that he should spend more time doing his job

and investigate more, if he has time to make up such stupid lies?

He told me that the higher-ups were intervening somehow

and that there was no use in trying to fight back.

He told me that a kid can't possibly win this fight

so I should just keep my mouth shut and accept the settlement money.

I don't have enough free time to be listening to such nonsense.

I'm sorry to be asking you to go back already. You traveled such a long way.

I never told you where I came from, or where I live, though.

You already knew who I was, right? That's why you kept avoiding me.

And you're the one who made that innocent guy confess...

I just assumed that you lived far away

since I've never seen that school uniform before.

Go back home without putting up a fuss.

I'm letting you off the hook since you remind me of my daughter

but my patience has reached its limit.

I envy your parents.

Are you that happy?

There's still someone who has no appetite because of you, you know.

And yet, you're so happy?

You didn't get your head checked, like I told you to?

A dangerous kid like you shouldn't be allowed to roam free, like this.

I don't understand what that girl sees in you.

If she were my daughter, I'd beat her half to death for being so dumb.

This country is going down the crapper because

assholes like you are trying to become prosecutors!

I heard that's why you dumped Na Ri.

Because she was getting in the way of your studies.

How could someone as dumb as you

who can't even make the top 200, possibly become a prosecutor?

Don't see girls, date, or even get married.

Just study and study until you grow old and die!

I'm sure they'll eventually accept you as a prosecutor

when you turn 80, if you keep trying!

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.

Here. A present for letting me share your umbrella.

Oh, just a moment.

What's your name? I'll definitely be seeing you again

so I should give you my autograph, shouldn't I?

Next time.

I'll study hard and bring you my passing test results

so please, give me your autograph then.

And I'll tell you my name then, too.

I'll be looking forward to that.

I keep this safe until then, okay?

Yes, sir. Thank you.

Sorry, but could you move to the back? She's my friend, you see.

We're not friends.

Try to seduce me.

What kind of crazy bastard would give up on his true love for studying?

It's easy enough for a guy to choose studying over a girl

if he's not really crazy about her.

So why don't you go ahead and try to seduce me?

Make me so crazy about you so that I can give up on studying

and give up on being a prosecutor.

If you can't seduce me, I'll seduce you.

Excuse me, please read this. Thank you!

[LOOKING FOR AN EYEWITNESS TO A HIT-AND-RUN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006.]

[LOOKING FOR AN EYEWITNESS TO A HIT-AND-RUN ACCIDENT]

[LOOKING FOR AN EYEWITNESS TO A HIT-AND-RUN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006.]

Are you sleeping, No Eul?

No. I'm not sleeping.

Did you find a part-timer for your family's chicken restaurant?

- Why? - If you didn't, I want to do it.

You need the money, right?

I'm sure your dad's hospital bill is nothing to sneeze at, either.

I just have to make some money, is all.

Why don't you just settle out of court?

How could I settle with him, when he's not the real criminal?

That's Shin Joon Young from Sooyoo High, right?

- Yeah, it is! - What's he doing at our school?

- What's with the bear? - Is he giving it to someone?

Oh my gosh, it's really Shin Joon Young! Is he here to see Na Ri?

Does he regret dumping her, or something?

Is he trying to get back together with her, or something?

Hey, stop being so nosy.

Why is she talking like that about my future husband?

I cut class because it's our 100th day anniversary, but you're ignoring me?

What? 100th day anniversary? Whose?

Happy 100th day anniversary. I love you, Eul!

Oh my, you're just too cute for your own good.

I just can't study with you hanging around me!

- Na Ri! - Na Ri!

Let's not hide our relationship, okay?

I'm the bastard here. You did nothing wrong.

What the hell are you saying, you crazy bastard...

Just shush, okay? I'll take care of everything.

Sorry that things ended up this way!

Make sure you find a better guy than me, okay?

What's going on? You never laugh.

Did you see something really funny today?

No, I just got even. That stupid girl.

She never should have messed with me!

What are you talking about?

- Uncle. - Yeah?

Why am I so damn evil? I mean, who do I take after, that I'm this way?

Hey, are you going crazy from studying so hard, for the first time in your life?

What's wrong with you?

Wow, I guess you really did. Stop studying so hard to become a prosecutor!

It's clear that not just anyone can handle studying so hard!

Oh, geez. What am I going to do with you?

Stop laughing, already!

- Damn it, that evil bastard! - Who?

Shin Joon Young. How should I obliterate him?

You mean Mr. Joon Young?

Don't refer to him so respectfully. He doesn't deserve it.

He doesn't deserve to be called human, either. He's just an asshole.

Dad, Big Sis is using bad words!

No, I wasn't cursing. I was just stating facts.

He made me out to be a traitorous hussy who steals a friend's boyfriend

and now I'm getting bullied by the kids at school.

Hurry up and wake up so you can get revenge for me, Dad!

How could you tell Dad to recover quickly for a reason like that?

- How old are you? Seriously. - Why, you little...

Dad, hurry and wake up, and buy me pizza!

One with a cheese crust, and sweet potatoes and bacon!

So you think pizza is a better reason for him to wake up faster?

This is why you're a kid. Go watch Pororo or something, child.

Dad, you have to get up soon

and slap that bastard, Shin Joon Young, in the face with your pancake spatula!

- Dad! - You shouldn't say such crude things!

Dad. Hurry up and give Big Sis a good scolding!

Dad!

Nurse!

Time of death, 23:40.

No! Don't die, Dad! Please, save him, Doctor!

Big Sis! Tell him to save our dad! Tell him to save our dad!

I'm sorry, Dad.

Apparently, the guy who ran the sweet pancake stand passed away.

Really? I heard that he was involved in a hit-and-run not too long ago.

I guess he ended up passing away, after all.

I feel so bad for Eul.

My mom told me that they couldn't even hold a funeral for him

and she fled with her younger brother last night.

What? Where did they go?

I don't know. But apparently, her dad borrowed tons of money from loan sharks.

Eul's mom was ill for a really long time before she passed away.

So why did they run away in the middle of the night?

Probably because the loan sharks harassed them so much.

They even went to the funeral home to harass them.

I guess they were really relentless.

Aren't you dating Eul? And yet, you didn't know about any of this?

[SUITE NUMBER 1 - DECEASED: NO JANG SU. SURVIVED BY: NO EUL, NO JIK.]

How dare you come here? We put all our money together to prepare this!

You made it so that they couldn't even give him a funeral

- so we're holding one for him instead! - You bastards!

Harassing Eul and Jik so much that they ran off wasn't enough for you people?

Did you come here to see if you could get any money from them?

We didn't kick them out! And we feel wronged too, you know!

Those punks ran off in the middle of the night without paying us!

Were they the ones who took your money, huh? Those youngsters have no money!

How dare you threaten them!

- Do you not have children? Huh? - Geez. Seriously?

So why did they have to go and borrow someone else's money?

If you borrow money, you should pay it back

even if you have to sell your own body to do it!

- Why you... - How dare you!

Mr. No Jung Soo, who was the victim of a hit-and-run, passed away last night.

And as for the punishment for the man who confessed...

I made it so that he was sentenced to two years of probation.

Good work. I really won't forget what you've done for me.

How is Ms. Jung Eun doing?

I sent her off to the States the very next day.

She seemed to be quite shaken up by it all.

I though it'd be best for her to travel a bit to calm herself down.

You're not going to cancel the planned engagement between our children

just because of this tiny mishap, right?

Of course not.

[LOOKING FOR AN EYEWITNESS...]

The person you're trying to reach is unavailable at this time.

- Jung Tae Ho! - Yes!

Good job. Try a bit harder and catch up to Ho Chul in Class 3, okay?

Yes, ma'am!

Shin Joon Young! Joon Young? Joon Young!

Joon Young made the most improvement in the entire class.

- Wow! - Wow!

He moved up 100 places in the school rankings!

- Wow! - That's insane!

Sheesh! Oh, geez.

Wow, what a sight to see.

Sheesh, how is it that he manages to fall asleep in each and every situation?

It's not like you're a sickly person! You're in the prime of your youth, punk!

How the hell are you ever going to raise a family, like this?

Why should I have to do that? I can just have them make money for me!

You little!

Sheesh, you're so pitiful. Here, give it to me.

Hurry it up! I'm sure that the teachers are hungry!

Yes, ma'am!

That hurts, Dad!

You think I hit you that hard to tickle you, you damned bastard?

And stop cursing so much! How can you say that to your own son?

If you keep treating me like that, I'll go off to Mom, all right?

Yes, please do, you punk! Go!

She was obviously at her wit's end with you, though, to send you to me

to wash her hands of you, after raising you for 20 whole years!

That's because my stepdad only loved his son, and not me, so Mom got mad!

Hey, Big Brother! Hurry it up, already!

Here, have some rice cakes, too.

Here, take a lot of them!

Please, enjoy!

Oh, don't just stand there like that, please come eat!

Come on over!

Do you like it? Please enjoy!

Oh my, Principal! Welcome, sir!

What's all this?

I heard that it was all thanks to your teachers' hard work

that Joon Young's grades improved so much!

How could I just sit by and do nothing, as his mother?

I'll never forget this gratitude...

You mean, "you'll never forget this kindness".

Oh, thank you so much!

That's why you should stick to simple phrases.

Thank you so much! Oh, please! Take a seat!

[LOOKING FOR AN EYEWITNESS...]

[NO EUL]

Hello? Hello? Hello?

- No Eul? - Damn it.

Not again. I'm not No Eul, okay? How many times has it been, already?

Damn it, this is so annoying.

[CONTACT: SHIN JOON YOUNG]

Why should I? Why should I care?

Oh, whatever!

- Yes? - Hello?

- Yes? - Is this Shin Joon Young's cell?

This is Eul. No Eul.

I heard from Granny On Yang that you were the one

who carried my father's portrait at the end of the funeral ceremony.

Thank you, Shin Joon Young.

Did you change your mind?

That's why you came back, right?

I'm not doing this solely for my own gain, and just to get a job, you know.

Doing this documentary will definitely help you

to get rid of the asshole image you've cultivated for yourself.

And honestly, it's nice to earn lots of money, too, isn't it...

Do you not know who I am?

Of course I do. Even my landlord's little kids know who you are.

No Eul!

Do you really not know who I am?

I do know who you are...

you son of a bitch.

And if I say that I do know who you are, will you shoot the documentary?

No... if I said I knew you, you probably would've been an even bigger jerk to me.

Just like you were a long time ago.
