[Myeong Joo Station]

Unni, let's just go. We might miss the train, too.

Let's wait a little bit more.

I mean, when I called him earlier, he said I could see him if I looked out for him.

But it's been 30 minutes since, and he's still not here!

He probably just came out from his house now.

We can make it if we run.

Noona! Bom!

- Jae Hoon! - Hello!

Hey! Stop saying hello and run faster!

Run faster! What are you doing?

Dae Beom?

Didn't Dae Beom Oppa say he couldn't make it today?

You were waiting for Dae Beom Oppa.

No. I really didn't know he was coming today.

Really?

Hurry up!

- Let's hurry up and go. - Let's go!

[Myeong Joo Station]

- The train is here! - Hurry up, guys!

We'll be late!

Are you okay? Let's go. [Summer Strike: Episode 8]

We almost missed the train because of you.

I'm sorry. I was late packing this.

What's that? Are those boiled eggs? Are you a grandma?

But did you call Dae Beom Oppa to come?

No. I ran into him on the way.

I didn't know you would come today.

What do you mean you didn't know? Did you really have no clue?

But you didn't cancel Dae Beom Oppa's seat as well.

Is there any salt?

Wow, it's so pretty here!

It's green all over the place.

Did we arrive already?

Heo Jae Hoon! How can you sleep the whole time on the way here?

I didn't sleep at all last night preparing food.

Noona, how long do we have to walk from here?

We just have to walk 35 minutes from here.

Wow, did you look up already?

He's amazing. Shall we start walking?

Yes!

- But it's pretty far away. - It is a bit of a walk.

- A 35-minute walk is a long walk. - I know.

Wait!

What is it?

- We have one more suitcase. - What?

Didn't you bring the other one, Hyung?

Another suitcase? What are you talking about it? You brought that one.

It's on the bus!

Sir!

Please stop the bus! Sir!

- Sir! - How can he forget that?

Can it be delivered any faster?

It's so pretty!

- Okay. - It's really pretty.

I can receive my suitcase tomorrow morning.

It's okay. We have one suitcase here. That will be enough food to share.

That bag only has cooking tools.

What? Is there nothing to eat?

If that was the case, you should've told us first!

I brought some instant ramyun noodles just in case.

I have some food, too.

I brought some apples.

No. Both of those are not acceptable.

Then, what do you want to do? We can't just starve.

Wait one second.

How could you think about picking peaches?

You are so resourceful.

Wherever you go, they'll provide some food, at least if you work for them.

You are making me feel ashamed of myself.

I was worried since a storm is forecasted tonight, but thanks to you guys, I'm a bit relieved.

Please pick the smaller ones first.

Okay!

That young man over there is such a good worker!

I'm in a great mood today. Today's wage is a Korean chicken!

- Really? - Really?

Since I'm with young people, I'm gaining energy.

Thank you!

Thank you! Oh, yeah!

It'll be delicious!

- Dad. - Yes?

Can't you wear like this at other times, too?

Why? Do I look cool?

You look like a wealthy person.

Hey! Your dad is rich even if I don't wear like now. I just don't have time to dress up.

Then why did you dress up today?

There's an occasion. You don't have to know.

Look at him.

Where are you going out again today?

I have an important plan today.

You're always lounging here, but what important plan do you have?

Jun, it's hot, isn't it?

Hey, are you going out on a date with a woman?

Oh, my! Why are you asking something like that?

I have privacy as well!

Pri-- what? Oh, you're funny.

Right, Jun?

Father, is combing my hair this way better or that way better?

- Let me see. - Okay, look.

- This way-- - Come closer to me.

Number one or number two?

- Ouch! - I don't know, you brat.

Don't be silly and come home early!

I get it.

I'm heading out.

Dad, good luck with your date!

A-A date?

- Is your dad really going on a date right now? - Yes.

I can't!

Heo Jae Hoon, you came out the earliest, right?

What about Dae Beom Hyung?

Wow, Dae Beom Oppa is amazing!

He's so good at it.

Let's go under the water again. Let's go!

Hyung, did you come out already?

Dae Beom Oppa is pretty impatient than I thought!

He lost the game!

Wow, everyone's so good at holding their breath.

The one who lost the game will be splashed with water!

- It's the penalty! - Let's splash the water!

Wait, wait.

Water for you, too, Unni!

- Wait. - Stop it!

Wait, no!

- Did you bring a Ukulele as well? - Ta-da!

When did you bring all these things?

Music is a must on a trip.

Are you good at playing it?

- Yeo Reum. - I'm pretty good at it.

- Really? - Here's a peach for you.

Oh! I'm sorry. I should've taken care of this first.

- It's a soft one. - Excuse me, everybody?

Is it a soft peach? I love it!

- Hello? - Yes?

Shall we enjoy it together now?

We'll see how you play it first.

He's pretty good at it.

♪ Spring is coming~ ♪ [T/N: "Spring" in Korean is "Bom."]

- ♪ Spring is coming~ ♪ - What's going on?

What's going on between you two?

Nothing! Stop it!

Look at you! You like it.

♪ I'm happy because I'm with you~ ♪

Yeo Reum Noona! ♪ Summer is coming~ ♪ [T/N: "Summer" in Korean is "Yeo Reum."]

♪ Summer is coming~ ♪

Dae Beom Hyung! ♪ Dae Beom is coming~ ♪

Look, Dae Beom Oppa is getting shy!

- Are you shy? - Please stop it.

- Unni, let's stand up! - Let's all sing together!

Dae Beom, why don't you stand up, too?

♪ We are~ ♪

♪ It's good that we are together~ ♪

A round of applause, please!

You are so good at it!

But how can you all eat peaches without me? Can I have one, too?

Hey, be careful!

Wow.

You...

Why?

Do I look pretty cool?

What's up with your outfit today?

I know you're just saying that when I actually look good.

Wow, it's a little too much to handle it.

What are we eating today? I'm hungry.

I already asked Angok Garden to prepare a big carp for you.

Why do you want to get carp on a hot day like today? Let's just eat whatever is around here.

But I'm getting a meal for you to cheer up, so we should get braised carp, at least!

Did you put on perfume?

- Wow. - Why? Does it smell nice?

- Let me bring my car keys. - Wait!

I'll drive you today on my motorcycle.

Motorcycle? We are not high school students anymore!

I'm saying, let's reminisce our high school memories.

Go ahead and put this on.

Seriously...

I'm too embarrassed to get on the bike with you right now.

Just hop on.

Do we really have to do this?

You have to hold on tight.

Otherwise, you might fall.

Did you meet a prospective marriage partner?

What? No. I'm just in a good mood because it's a good day.

I'm still putting on my helmet, you crazy!

Hold on tight.

I said, hold on tight!

Jo Ji Young, did you dress nicely today to see me?

It's what I used to wear.

- Hee-haw! What a nice view! - Be quiet!

What's wrong with you? Let's go quietly.

Isn't it nice to have a natural AC?

Sure, it's nice.

You only have me, right?

No, thanks!

- "No, thanks!" - Oh, stop it.

Let's go and have some delicious food!

I don't understand.

What was the peach farm owner's intention?

Unni.

Don't you want to experience it once in your lifetime?

No, never ever.

Dae Beom Oppa, what about you?

I'm good with that experience as well.

Seriously, what is this?

I was so happy when he said he'll give us the Korean chicken.

Me, too.

Who would've known he'd give a live chicken?

I'm starving. Let's just kill it.

Who will do that?

- If you don't play, you lose! Rock, paper, scissors! - All of a sudden?!

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

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

Go get him.

I can't!

It looks amazing.

Wow, it's so good.

I was going to put some eggs in it.

But he kept looking at me.

You did the right thing.

I think it's more delicious because it's cooked in an iron pot.

Right? I told you I'm good at making great ramyun when we first met.

How is it for you, Hyung?

It's so good.

Wow, I'm so full now.

That was a great meal.

It was delicious ramyun, but then why did we work on the peach farm today?

Hey, do you remember the first reason why we had to work at the orchard?

Hello?

What? Right now?

The other person told me they'd bring it tomorrow morning.

Okay, I get it.

What is it? Who called you?

It's from the bus company, and they said they'll bring my suitcase to the bus stop right now.

Right now?

Why is it now? We just finished eating our dinner.

- I know. - It's okay.

We can eat tomorrow's breakfast like dinner.

Do you want me to come with you?

No, it's okay.

Bom, let's go together.

Really?

Thank you for cleaning up!

We'll be back.

Get back safely!

Bom.

Yes?

It's nice.

What's nice?

Nothing special. It's nice to be just two of us in this darkness.

Seriously, stop it.

When is the bus coming? Is it ever going to come?

After I met you, I became tremendously happier.

Hey, be honest with me.

You got expelled from your school in America because you are too chatty, didn't you?

It's the opposite.

When I first went to America, other kids were making fun of my English, so I didn't speak a word.

How old were you when you moved to America?

I was in 6th grade.

Then did you come back to Korea because you couldn't speak English?

No, my English got better over time.

But kids were making fun of my pronunciation so much.

So I couldn't hold in anymore and punched one of them.

What? You punched someone?

That's when my parents knew how serious it was and sent me here.

Your parents must have been heartbroken.

I don't think so.

I bet they are happy without me.

It's because they are ashamed of me.

Both of my parents are very smart, but I came out like a freak.

My parents are both famous psychology professors.

But they don't know how their son feels.

The bus is here! Let's go.

Hello, sir. I'm here to get my suitcase.

The food is here. The fish is very big!

You have to do it like this.

Let me do it for you.

- Isn't that an organ? - No, it's the meat.

Have that with the rice.

It's good.

You can't even eat something like this if you go to Seoul.

Eat as much as you want.

Thank you.

And I know you like this. The rice wine.

You shouldn't drink it.

Of course! Did you see me ever drinking?

Well, Ji Young.

The reason why I asked you out for dinner today is...

What's going on?

You know it's hard to stay friends between a man and a woman,

but we've been friends for such a long time, right?

But, you know...

Ji Young.

- I... - Seong Min.

Can I ask you a favor as your friend?

Of course!

Ask me any favor. I'll do everything for you.

Please kick out that woman from your building.

Who? Are you talking about Yeo Reum?

Why all of a sudden?

Isn't Yeo Reum a nice person?

In what aspect?

That she quit her job and living doing nothing? Are you also charmed by that?

No, I'm not charmed by her--

That's irresponsible.

Also, it's very incompetent of her.

Do you think I don't want to live like that?

A lot of people are enduring and doing their best, even if it's hard. Am I wrong?

You're not wrong. You're right.

I wouldn't say anything if she's living like that by herself.

But why is she affecting other people around her?

Did Yeo Reum say something to you?

Dae Beom...

He is getting weirder because of her.

Ji Young, then did you, by any chance...

Did you cry because of him?

Dae Beom changed so much.

Seong Min, what should I do?

I think I have feelings for Dae Beom.

Bom.

Yes?

Do you know when I first start having feelings for you?

Seriously, what's up with you?

When I first got into the same class with you,

other kids were making fun of me again, saying I'm being pretentious.

I thought it was the same for me, even in Korea.

Guys, be quiet.

I thought there was no place for me here as well.

Then, in the end, I hated myself.

Who would like me when my parents don't even like me?

I also thought it wasn't racism in America, and I was the problem.

Everyone, be quiet!

It was all my fault.

So during the break times, I only listened to music.

I pretended I didn't care and ran away from the situation.

You've been listening to this kind of music.

It's pretty good.

But you were the first one who talked to me.

You probably don't remember this.

When I'm with you,

I feel very comfortable since we don't need to talk that much.

I feel the opposite.

For me, when I'm with you,

I speak more than I usually do.

Since I was young,

talking with others has been such a burden to me.

Dae Beom.

After that day,

I thought about it a lot.

If I didn't quit my job,

if I didn't come to see the ocean,

if I hadn't gone to the library,

if I didn't live in that billiard room...

If I hadn't done one of them,

you wouldn't have gone through that.

If I hadn't done one of them...

When you first came to Angok,

and the next day

when you came to make the membership card because you decided to live here.

And the night when we stayed overnight at the library together.

And the night I walked you to your place because you were drunk.

That's...

The day when we ate ice creams together at the library.

And when we went to interview the grandmother together,

and also...

When we jogged together in the morning.

I liked all those times.

For me,

because you came to Angok,

I'm sincerely happy.

It's raining.

Hey, it's raining.

Let's just walk.

Do you want just to get rained on?

Yes.

Okay.

It's cool and nice.

I remember it, too.

What?

I do remember that time.

How can I forget that day?

Thank you, we enjoyed the food!

I called a cab.

You can't ride your motorcycle in this weather. Let's take that cab together.

Do you think it's my first day riding the motorcycle?

It's different when it's pouring!

Don't brag about yourself and get in the cab with me.

It's here.

Come! Run!

Get in there first.

- Ji Young, get home safe! - Hey!

- Sir, please go ahead and go. - Hey, get in the cab!

I have liked getting rained on since I was young.

So I didn't use an umbrella on purpose.

I heard about Bom's hospital bill.

I also heard everything about Seoul.

It's too good an opportunity to miss.

Yeo Reum.

You want me to go to Seoul, do you?

Yes.

I also didn't use an umbrella when it was raining when I was young.

Fresh shrimp is here! It's only on sale today!

Hello, sir. Don't you want some shrimp today?

The shrimp is really good today.

Today's the season. Thank you so much!

Jae Hoon is so good at that!

Do you have to do this every day?

No, Mondays are off.

It'll be hot since it's summer now.

Is this better than serving the food inside?

Yes. This has better pay.

Wow, you are so cool.

Oh, that's right.

It was on sale on the internet, and I thought of you.

I'm not going to draw anymore.

I don't know. Just take it.

But Jae Hoon is so good at that.

You might lose your job to him.

Heo Jae Hoon!

Don't work too hard.

Let me do it now.

- Give it back to me! - No!

I said give it back to me!

Hey, seriously. Give it back to me.

Hey, be careful!

Hello?

I'm eating well here,

and I'm working out every day and have gotten much better.

Now that I think back on it in sobriety,

I'm so sorry for you, Mom.

Also, I'm sorry to my kids.

My mom, who worked hard all her life,

my poor mom.

When I come back home, I'll do my best for you.

Please say hello to Bom and Ha Neul for me as well.

My son.

Please be healthy. That's all I worry about.

I'm sorry to call you and ask you to read this for me.

No, don't be sorry.

Please don't talk about this to Bom.

But I think she'll like it if she sees this letter.

Well...

Can I ask you one more favor?

What is it?

It's a bit embarrassing to say it.

What's there to be embarrassed about?

Yeo Reum.

Is it difficult to learn Hangul?

It's because...

I want to write a reply to my son that we are all well.

Thank you.

Now it feels a bit better.

I think you might get heatstroke while wearing that shrimp mask. Can you not do that work?

You are not making that much more money.

What? What did you just say to me?

I'm just worried that you might get sick.

Hey, Heo Jae Hoon.

That difference might be nothing to you.

But to me, that little more money is important.

Bom, I'm really sorry. I made a mistake.

Were you scared?

What?

Were you just got scared, you idiot?

What? You freaked me out.

It feels like my world is collapsing when you get angry.

It's not collapsing.

I wish we could go on a trip again.

Me, too.

It was fun.

Hey, you.

What's that devious smile?

You know what it means.

What are you doing? You must be crazy!

Bom, you can't take it back now.

What do you mean I can't take it back?

Bom, let's go together!

Don't follow me.

Go into where it's all gathered.

We have to do the labeling. You have to put in the information and paste it here.

We need to put the title and the number.

Do that work first, and you put the data in it.

Okay.

Put the title and the other info. It's all there, so it's just manual labor.

Yeo Reum.

- How are you? - I'm good.

I was just wondering what happened to you this morning.

- Oh... - It's because you didn't come out jogging.

Well, it's because...

The sneakers.

My sneakers got ripped.

So I think I can't run for the time being.

Oh, and also.

I'm going to Seoul tomorrow.

That's good.

Yes.

You'll do great.

Hey, part-timer! Tell me where the library storage is.

Yeo Reum, excuse me for a second.

We have to go out first.

- Do I have to go outside? - I'll let you know where it is immediately.

Oh, well. I'll be back, Sunbae.

Yeo Reum.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

It's refreshing, isn't it?

Gyeo Wool, now that you took a bath, you look like a Seoul city puppy!

You are so pretty right now!

Here you go.

Is there anything else to do?

Should I clean the bathroom?

Does it hurt?

I'm asking you, does it hurt?!

The person you are calling is not available at this moment...

He always doesn't pick up the phone at times like this.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

I don't know the exact size, but it's for an 8-year-old boy.

He's a bit chubby.

If you're looking for clothes for an 8-year-old, sizes 120 to 130 will fit well.

But considering that he'll keep growing, size 140 might be the best.

Do you have this in that size right now?

Wait one second, please. I'll check at the back.

There's always someone who loves you and hates you.

That's something out of my control.

But the one who hates you is hating you, and that's it.

The one you love will make you sad because of your love.

Stand up.

All of the people who put me in deep sorrow

were the people who I loved the most.

The degree of my sorrow

was exactly equal to the size of my affection,

so it makes me scared to love someone now.

I don't want to make any more sad situations.

Why am I being so pretentious?

Dae Beom!

Dae Beom! Dae Beom?

Yeo Reum.

Oh?

You were over there.

What brings you here?

Well, the thing was...

I wanted to say...

have a safe trip to Seoul and come back.

Sorry?

I'm saying...

Have a safe trip to Seoul,

and come back.

Yes, I'll come back safely.

Also...

I haven't canceled that movie tickets.

Wait, Yeo Reum.

This is for you.

What's this?

It's sneakers.

You said that yours were ripped.

But I wasn't sure about your shoe size.

Wait, but your sneakers...

are fine.

You're right.

It somehow got fine.

Then double down on running for me as well until I come back.

Okay, I will.

It's a nice summer.

If you go to the end of the left side of the library,

there's one more seat in that corner.

That's my favorite seat.

I can't believe he had this great spot all to himself.

- Hello. - Thank you so much for coming today.

Of course, we should come.

- Dae Beom, go inside first. I'll park the car. - Okay.

- You can find us on the third floor. - Yes, please go ahead and go inside.

Professor Lee is already upstairs. Let's go.

Please don't be nervous and comfortably speak as it is.

This is the place.

I'm sorry to bring you into an uncomfortable place again.

Then, let's start--

- Just leave it there! - It's okay. Let me help you.

But where's Bom?

I think she went to change her clothes.

- Just leave it down there! I can clean up. - It's all done.

Oh, my goodness!

Hey.

Bom!

Bye, I'll see you tomorrow.

Bye, see you.

Bye! That's an ice cream cake, and please eat it with the other staff.

Thank you for the cake!

I told you not to do stuff like that to the owner lady.

It only makes me tired.

Why? But she liked it.

Why do you bring something so expensive?

It's because if I buy her something nice, then she'll like it.

Do you even know how much I get paid in a day?

I'm sorry. I'll get something cheaper next time--

Hey, watch out!

- You almost hit us! - What kind of craziness is that?

Watch out!

Who's that? Is that someone who fought with you?

What? None of them has a motorcycle.

Hey, be careful!

Who are you? Do you want to die in my hands?!

- That person must be crazy! - Wait, wait.

Wait!

Bom, run away!

Huh? Hey, Dae Ho!

Bom!

- When did you get out of prison? - I just got out.

I went to your grandmother's place, and she told me you were here, so I came straight here.

You should've told me first if you were coming back.

How can you not tell me? Do you want to die?

Wait, did you get taller?

- What? Me? - You were tiny before, but you got so much bigger now.

Hey, my height has been the same since middle school.

But you look like you lost some weight.

- I just worked out a little bit! - Hey, stop it!

What's going on here? Let go of her right now!

Who's this guy?

Well, he is--

It's obvious. I'm Bom's boyfriend.

Wow, Kim Bom. A lot happened while I was away.

So who the heck are you?

He's my best friend. We have been friends since we were babies.

- Your best friend? - Yes.

This guy is your best friend?

Let's introduce ourselves later. Kim Bom.

Hey! Seriously!

Let's see each other often from now on.

Okay. See you.

And also, your name was...

It's Jae Hoon. Heo Jae Hoon.

Right. It's good to meet you as well.

- Get home safely. - I'll get going.

Bye!

What's wrong with you?

I told you, he's just a friend.

How can you hug so much with just a friend?

He's a very close friend of mine. He's my best friend!

Yes, you can come over today.

Okay, I'll see you soon.

[Summer Strike]

Geun Ho running out of here got filmed. Did anything happen?

You were going to say it, but I guess it didn't feel right.

Grandma, you sound like you are inside of my heart.

My grandma will switch me out and have you as her granddaughter!

You came here to rest.

Can't you think of it as some incidents you had in a vacation place?

Please keep it secret! I'm so sorry.

Grandma? Where did she go with the lights off?
