[The Old Man and the Sea]

"A man is not made for defeat."

"A man can be destroyed but not defeated."

Yes, let's settle in this town.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, Unni.

Where can I find the real estate agency around here?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

[Angok Library]

Hey, it's my ball!

Hey, pass the ball to me!

Hey, you over there!

Ajumma with the backpack! Pass the ball here!

The ball! Pass it to us!

- Are you talking to me? - You are the only one there!

Kick the ball this way!

Hey, kids! I'm not an Ajumma!

- Oh, no! - Dae Beom!

- Wake up! - Is your head okay?

- Breathe! - Are you okay?

I'm so sorry.

How dare you do that to him!

What is this?

Get out of here!

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!

It's a hand-drawn map.

I said it was fine.

When you see those punks again, give my name to them.

Bae Seong Min, the bronze medal from the Junior Athletic Game.

I'll get going now.

- Wait! - Hey, hey!

- Hyungnim! - Wait, hold on.

Hey, wait. Hold on.

Oh, my back.

- Hyungnim, get off my leg! - Wait, wait.

Hold on for a second.

Do you have strong glue?

Why don't you check the section where the brushes are hanging?

Are you okay?

You should've been careful.

It's crazy!

Wow, it hurts in a while!

I went too far.

- Excuse me. - What is it?

The glue is 2,000 won.

It's not about that.

Bom, where are you going?

All of the stuff here is lame, so I'm leaving.

Why did that brat come here when she had nothing to buy?

Miss, I told you. It's 2,000 won.

Ah, right.

Are you okay?

- Here. - All right.

Take care.

Have a nice day.

I got you.

Come over here.

Go somewhere else to play!

I won't leave you guys alone if you hit my car with the ball!

Go somewhere else now!

There's nobody in the library right now, right?

I don't know how long I have to be stuck in this Angok.

Why aren't they transferring me somewhere else?

Dae Beom, I failed again.

I can't go into County Office again.

It's so annoying. Why is this happening to me?

I want to go to Seoul!

I hate Angok!

I don't know. I'm sick of all this.

I only bought the glue.

I'll know when I see if you only bought the glue or not.

What's this? Why are you carrying around a blanket?

Are you on a backpacking trip?

What's this?

What about this one?

- Seong Min. - Yes?

Check her pockets.

That's right. Miss, can I check your pockets--?

- Can I see your pocket-- - What are you doing?

Let me see inside your pocket.

I have nothing in here.

It's strange.

That security system was very expensive.

What's this?

Are you kidding me?

Why are you sticking this around here with you?

I didn't put it on there.

4B pencils?

Was there any 4B pencil in her stuff?

Why do you get suspicious of your customer?

Young people these days have brilliant ideas,

and they fix up places like this and live well.

The grandma who owns this place-- Oh, be careful.

Does this place have electricity?

Well-- Goodness, what was that?

How much is the monthly rent here?

It's 500,000 won, but I can ask the owner to lower it a bit.

The security deposit is 20 million won.

This place asks for a security deposit of 2 million won and a monthly rent of 200,000 won.

But I can cut the rent to 170,000.

Okay.

But you said the bathroom is outside, right?

Yes, the bathroom is down here, and it's communal--

Where is he scratching? Is he even sniffing it?

I'm sorry, young lady.

I can't let you live here.

[Angok Real Estate]

It's too bad.

Wait, young lady.

It's my wife's idea.

I have one more place to show you.

Where is that?

It's hard to describe in words. Let's go and take a look.

It's this building.

- It's not a residential building. - What?

Well, right.

It's not even locked.

- Why don't we go inside and take a look? - Okay.

Okay, come this way.

What's this?

Please, come inside.

This was the biggest billiard in this town before.

Wow, what an open space! You can play soccer here.

When they were building this, they poured a lot of cement.

So the building is very sturdy! It'll never collapse.

Right, the rooftop! Why don't you go up to the rooftop when the weather's nice?

It's very sunny up there, so the laundry will dry up right away.

That's not all of it.

You can use the entire building all to yourself.

This entire building?

That's what I'm saying.

So no one lives here?

Well, technically, that's what it is.

I guess it's not suitable for a young lady to live alone.

How much is the monthly rent?

The rent? Do you like this place?

My wife was right!

I knew you would be different.

If that's the case, I'll go right now and set the rent with the owner.

So please hang around here for a bit. Okay?

Wait, sir?

Hyungnim, it's me.

How are you?

I have something to discuss with you.

Why did you get all this stuff?

Aigo.

- Okay, what is it? - Hyungnim.

Today, I showed around houses to a young lady who came from Seoul.

And suddenly, I thought of you.

Why did you think of me?

What if I show her that place?

Where?

The first floor is not suitable, but the billiard on the second floor might be nice.

No, we already decided to sell that to Chang Soo.

Also, how can a person live there?

But is the person a nice person?

Yes, she looks like a very sincere person.

But what if she hears about the rumor later?

Those areas like Yangyang boomed because young people moved in there!

You know how much of their real estate and land prices went up.

Hey, you brat! Where the heck are you going around without looking after the store?

I just went to Chang Soo Hyung's place for a minute.

What brings you here, Ahjussi?

I just had to talk about something with your father.

Seong Min, I don't think we can sell that building to Chang Soo.

My goodness! Father!

Are you out of your mind?

I'm on my way back from persuading Chang Soo Hyung.

He'll sign the contract this week and has already prepared the deposit.

That's right, the contract!

We haven't signed the contract yet, so if the owner changes his mind, then it won't happen.

He's right. You need to have the contract to have legal effect.

Please stay out of this, Ahjussi!

After listening to Mr. Kwak, I realized it would be a huge loss if I sold it at that price.

My goodness, Father.

Remember how long that building stayed empty?

Why don't you go over there with Mr. Kwak right now?

- Go where? - Go to the billiard and sign the contract.

I heard a good fridge came out on the market in the town, so I have to go get it.

Have a good one, Hyungnim! [Economic Store]

Wait, Father! What contract?

- Who is it? - My goodness!

- What's going on? Who's there? - Mr. Kwak..?

Honey, what's going on?

- Look over there! - What?

My goodness! W-Who are you?

I'm here to see the room to rent. Who are you?

- What? - What? Are you here to see the room?

Hyung! Chang Soo Hyung!

Seriously!

Hey! How can you get a tenant when you said we could come in and measure the space?

No, it's not like that. I also just figured out about this.

Let's talk outside. Shall we?

Talk about what? Just say it right here!

Chang Soo, there's a customer here, so...

- What? A customer? - Sister!

There's nothing to worry about it! Let's go outside.

- Let's go outside first and talk about it. - Hey, you.

Seriously, you!

No, I'm also surprised!

Are you okay?

I bet you are surprised.

Why don't we go to the brightest spot since there's no lighting here?

Why is she screaming so much?

Stop pushing me!

- I mean, you are not going out. - Stop pushing me! I'm going to walk on my own.

Hey, who's that woman?

What do you mean by a customer? Why?

Is your father selling the building to that woman for a few more bucks?

Listen, that woman is here to see the room to rent.

Do you think it makes sense? That's why I'm saying you don't have to worry!

But why did you let the room out for rent without our permission?

Do you think that makes any sense?

I never put out the room for rent. And I'm not planning to do so!

My father did all this!

So I'm saying--

Why are they shouting so much?

I'll ask my father to take responsibility.

Hyungnim, why don't you two go to your store?

I'll take care of everything here and come to you later.

Seong Min, get yourself together, okay?

Yes, I'm Bae Seong Min! I'll solve it all.

- Stop kidding me. - Let's go.

I'll see you later.

Please, stop it!

Did I do something wrong?

No, not at all!

I think there was some misunderstanding, but you don't have to worry about it.

Please don't worry about it.

Ahjussi!

Ahjussi!

Ahjussi, what kind of tricks did you pull on my father again?

Oh, please! There's a customer here.

This is the son of this building's owner.

- Wait! - Weren't you at the Economic Store?

Miss, I was an athlete. So I hate talking for a long time.

You say you are moving here, but do you even know what kind of place this is?

This building has been empty for twenty years.

Why do you think it is?

For twenty years?

Are you really going to act like this? It's all settled with your father already.

- You said she's going to rent the room! - What's going on?

It's nothing to be concerned about.

What do you mean it's nothing to be concerned about?

A person died in here before.

What?

Can you live in a place where someone died? I can never do that!

Seong Min, are you really going to do this?

Well, it's completely up to you.

But after that one incident, nothing happened.

Ahjussi.

Look at her face. She's totally freaked out.

Let's not do this in the dark. Let's go outside and talk further. A ghost will come out!

Seriously! If you keep acting like this, I'll tell your father about it!

Go tell him!

And also, honestly, you are acting weird.

Why do you show this space when there are so many great places out there?

- Are you scamming or something? - Young lady!

50,000 won.

- Excuse me? - What?

The monthly rent of this space is 50,000 won!

- What did you just say? - 50,000 won?

Why would I show you this space if it didn't have that advantage?

Wait, do you think that price makes sense right now?

I settled the rent to be 50,000 won with the owner on the condition that you manage this building.

Are you saying my father decided to rent this space out for 50,000 won a month?

Yes!

Okay, I'll call my dad to check. Miss, you got to get yourself together!

50,000 won...

If it's for 12 months,

it's 600,000 won.

What do you say?

Then, I'll rent this place.

What?

You made a great choice!

Hello? Father!

I'll pray for blessings for you.

Our Father in heaven, this sister here is going to start a new life in this place.

What? But, Dad!

- Please look after her with all your might. Amen. - Wait, Dad!

This is driving me crazy!

Seong Min! Let's go.

Wait, please!

Did you see the bathroom here?

Even if you poop, the poop doesn't get flushed! You can't take a shower here!

How are you going to live in this rough space? Please reconsider this!

[Lee Yeo Reum]

I'm glad you liked the space.

Thank you.

- Ajumma. - Okay, then you can send 600,000 won for the yearly rent.

Okay.

I just sent the money to you.

Why don't you check it?

How much is your commission?

No, you don't have to pay for me showing the place.

All we need is for you to live there well.

Thank you so much.

Can I move in there tonight?

Oh, from tonight?

That place doesn't have electricity or anything.

I'm fine with it.

Well, the contract starts today.

I can't believe you are really doing this.

Seong Min.

You have to hand her the keys.

Here you go.

Honey, can you bring that thing that I asked you for earlier?

Right, okay.

[Angok Real Estate]

This is for you since that space doesn't have any lighting right now.

Thank you so much.

I hope you have a nice life there.

Oh, that brat.

- Thank you for everything. - Have a good night!

Take care.

Excuse me.

Thank you for telling me that story first.

If I had heard about that later, it would've been scarier.

Whatever.

If something breaks down, you fix it on your own.

And if you think you can't live there anymore, move out anytime. Okay?

Okay, I will.

I got a place to live.

After quitting the job,

I lay in bed for two whole days.

I was afraid.

I didn't know what to do at all.

So I decided to leave Seoul City first.

It's because this city is an overwhelming place for a jobless person like me.

I threw out my ex-boyfriend's stuff that I couldn't touch until now.

And I decided to keep my things that only fit in one backpack.

When I started organizing stuff, I realized how much I had bought until now.

The mugs that I thoughtlessly bought because they are pretty.

And the dishes that I only used once for the housewarming party.

Clothes that I didn't even know existed after buying them.

And the cheap shoes that I kept buying like a habit from the shopping arcade.

I picked one thing out of each category that I absolutely needed.

The competition was fiercer than a big company's interview.

The things that I didn't need were immediately sold when I put them out on the online market.

Goodbye.

Goodbye to my six-pyeong life.

Before this journey is over,

I hope I can find the answer.

I want to figure out how to live my life from now on.

This place has a great sky view.

Welcome.

Hello.

How can I help you?

I would like to make a membership card for this library.

Oh, but you need a local address to make that.

Yes, I do have one.

- Did you move here? - Yes.

We'll help you with that over here.

Well...

Are you okay with what happened yesterday?

I'm sorry about that.

Also, thank you for the map that you drew for me.

What is it about?

What map?

Here it is.

Isn't this address the billiard?

Are you living here?

Yes.

Thank you.

[Library Membership Card of Angok Library] [Name: Lee Yeo Reum]

How can anybody live there?

Hello.

Excuse me.

Your bag is over there.

It's not about that.

Excuse me, lady.

This is my seat. So don't sit over here from now on.

Kim Bom! Let's keep it down.

Why is she always picking on me?

Wait!

Hello?

Can you come out to the front of the library for a second?

Who's this?

You'll know when you come downstairs.

I mean, who are you to tell me to come out or not?

Hello?

Hey, Kim Bom.

What the heck are you doing? Take your phone call outside.

What is it?

I think our phones got mixed up.

Excuse me?

Look.

Wait!

I think it got confusing because neither of us has phone cases.

Is it your grandma?

Me?

You can tell that I'm a high-school student just by looking at me.

No, I meant your phone's wallpaper.

Why do you take someone else's phone without permission and see stuff?

- I'm sorry. - Be mindful!

Excuse me!

What is it now?

It's nothing.

Let's just have some lunch.

Enjoy!

What can I get for you?

Oh, hello!

What do you want?

Can I have one Sundae soup?

- One Sundae soup! - Okay!

- Table number two's foods are ready! - Okay!

Enjoy.

Can we have another bottle of soju?

Coming!

Is it okay for you to drink this much?

I'll just have another drink.

That's right. Here, I'll live without worrying about other people's eyes.

I'll do as I wish.

Ma'am!

Ma'am!

Can I have a bottle of soju, please?

It's nice.

Hot and cold and hot and cold. Who thought of this in the first place?

It's the taste of being an adult.

[Jeil Restaurant]

Thank you for the food!

I'll put it on the tab! See you later!

Let's see.

How can someone leave the fishcake dish?

What a disgrace.

[Angok Library]

Ah, my head hurts.

Why am I here?

- Thank you. - Get home safe.

Thank you for the food!

[10 hours ago]

What a disgrace for a young woman to be that drunk from early in the day!

Hey, take the ball from him!

- Let's play again. - Where are you going?

Is she okay?

Hey, let's hang out in here!

If you don't play, you lose! Rock, paper, scissors!

Guys, be quiet!

Is she drunk?

She fell!

What is this?

Look at her hair! It's funny!

Excuse me! What are you doing right now?

It's not the snake, but the medusa.

- She must be crazy! - She does look like she's crazy.

Oh, this is the library.

What's wrong with her?

I have to go home.

- Open your eyes! - Guys, get out of the way.

You can't come here after getting drunk.

- I'm sorry. - Sure!

Press her, press her!

Guys, stop it. Let's all go out now.

Dae Beom, not that way!

Don't bring them in there! Dae Beom!

I have to go home.

I have to go home...

Wow, I must have lost my mind.

I should go home now.

What's this?

Why did I drink that much?

It's three in the morning?!

Excuse me!

I'm in here! Is there anybody out there? Please open the door!

What should I do?

Right, my phone.

Don't come closer. Don't come to me!

Don't come! Don't come any closer!

Mr. Librarian..?

Thank you.

By the way, why did you stay here until this hour?

Is it because of me?

I'm so sorry.

I guess now you are awake.

The electricity will come back at 8 in the morning, and the door will open then.

So until then, please rest where you feel comfortable.

I guess he can't speak.

But why didn't you wake me up?

Dae Beom, I'll head out first.

Clean up and go, okay? [7 hours ago]

Bye! [7 hours ago]

Thank you. See you tomorrow!

Oh, you must have tried to wake me up.

You should have some sleep.

If you want to read some books, you can go to the far right by the window.

That's the brightest spot in here.

Thank you.

This is...

Mr. Librarian?

Mr. Librarian? Oh, my!

Ah, it hurts... Mr. Librarian!

Wait, Mr. Librarian.

I don't think you have to roll any further.

I just wanted to give this back to you.

That's what I was going to do.

I'll use this until the morning and give it back to you.

Good night.

I'm sorry, but...

Where can I find the restroom?

The restroom is outside of the doors.

Why did he give me water to drink when the restroom was outside of that locked doors?

Now that I think of it, he didn't drink and only gave it to me.

No, no. Let's not think about it.

Let's not even think about wanting to go to the bathroom.

It's almost that time.

It's almost 8 o'clock.

Let's hold in a little more.

Just a bit more...

Please.

I can't let my guard down at the very end.

I shouldn't run.

There's nothing that can stop this if it starts to come out--

Goodbye.

[Angok Library]

Oh, my goodness.

- What's going on here? - Excuse me!

What is he doing?

Your bag.

Right, my bag.

Wait.

Didn't he just speak?

What? Could he speak all this time?

Dae Beom, what's going on?

Tell me!

How much did she drink to sleep in the library?

You are also you. Why did you stay here overnight with her?

You can't even speak when there's a stranger.

Hey.

Why don't you go home and take a shower? Also, bring this home with you.

My mom said she put some ginseng extract she made and other things.

I haven't finished eating what she gave me the last time.

That's the way my mom is pursuing you.

Give her a call sometimes. I think she's sulky.

Please tell her that I said thank you.

Sure!

- Don't forget to say it! - All right!

Did he hear it?

He must have heard it.

Of course, he would've heard everything.

It's embarrassing!

What should I do?

It's mortifying!

My goodness, it's embarrassing.

That's right. There's nothing more to lose.

Let's live to the fullest and not regret anything.

I can do it!

I can do it.

[Summer Strike]

That woman is moving into the billiard with 50,000 won per month!

Do you think that makes sense?

The water pipe is broken.

I definitely told you before that you should fix anything on your own.

- You slept in the library before. - Oh, no!

And now you destroyed a book. What a disaster!

Nobody thinks of you nicely in this town.

You better behave well!

Don't think about living here for a long time and move out soon. That's better for both of us.

What a useless person moved in!

Let's just give back her money and kick her out.
