Loveholic Episode 5

Past Storyline

I had to ask Kang Wook something as a potential witness.

I see.

Why are you two so silent when you haven't seen each other for so long?

Is your grandmother doing well?

Yes.

By the way, Ja Kyung became an announcer (radio host).

You knew?

I met her.

I see.

Don't eat that.

Sweets aren't good for narcolepsy.

Oh, right.

About school...?

Oh, I quit school. I do something else now.

I see.

She quit a while ago. And we have to get married soon.

Kang Wook, I'm engaged.

It's been a year.

Yeah?

Yes?

Is that so? Then it can't be helped.

Yes, yes. I'll be there soon.

Yes, sir.

What to do? I think I have to leave first.

I'm sorry.

Eat slowly. And talk some more.

How is your grandmother doing?

You already asked that.

Oh, right.

It's late, but congratulations on the engagement.

I wanted to meet you at least once.

Even if coincidentally.

Goodbye.

You still try to act too cool.

Where are you coming from?

Did something happen?

All right. I won't ask.

Ja Kyung.

Yeah?

I want to go back to prison.

Hey, where are you headed?

Congratulations, Suh Kang Wook.

Come on, just for tomorrow.

Someone in our kitchen suddenly dropped out.

Yeah? Yeah? All right then. See you tomorrow.

He's coming?

Yes.

That's a relief. I was worried he would say no.

Maybe if you like him, we can make him a permanent member of our family. He's quite talented.

We'll see.

I'm sorry for the short notice.

Please do your best.

Don't worry about it. It's nothing.

Tonight's guests are very important people. And somewhat picky.

Please do your best.

Yes.

Our manager will tell you about the pay and such when she gets here.

Oh, here she is.

Come on in.

Manager, let me introduce you to the apprentice I was telling you about. This is Suh Kang Wook.

What are you doing? Say hello.

Do you know each other?

Nice to meet you for the first time. I'm Suh Kang Wook.

Yes, nice to meet you.

Our manager is the head here. She's going to be our owner's daughter-in-law soon.

I'll let her tell you the rest.

When you're done, come to the kitchen.

Don't look so nervous.

I won't let your future mother-in-law find out anything.

If I just run out right now, what happens to you?

Do what you want.

She'll ask you what happened.

Just tell her you didn't like me.

Okay. I'll do that.

It was nice seeing you again.

You're not done yet?

I'm sorry. The pay is too low. I can't do it.

Wait a moment.

If you consider the person who introduced you, you shouldn't just leave like this.

Manager, what did you say to make him want to leave like this?

I'm sorry.

The person in need should relent. We'll pay you the amount you want.

Hey, what are you doing, staring into space? We don't have time.

Yes, sir.

Congratulations Prosecutor Kim Soo Bong.

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

This is my future daughter-in-law.

She's very beautiful.

Could we have some more water...

Call me if you need anything.

Her plate is empty. Can you fill it again?

You're late.

A lot of people came.

And father?

Tae Hyun!

Go on over.

Tired?

No.

Did you eat yet?

I'll have something here.

A lot of people came.

Yeah, a lot.

Oh! Hello!

Come with me.

How have you been? (small talk) This is my fianc�. (more small talk)

Here is the salad.

This salad is delicious. What kind of salad is this?

My own invention, Suh Kang Wook style salad.

It's delicious. (and such)

How did this happen?

Why is Kang Wook here?

The head chef recommended him.

Let's talk later.

Is there anything you need?

A glass of wine.

Some more wine?

Kang Wook.

We meet again in an unusual circumstance.

Yes.

You know each other?

Of course. I know him well.

He was Yool Joo's student.

Oh, really? But -

earlier didn't you say you've never met?

That is -

Why did you pretend not to know each other?

It was in Choong-chun -

Ah, right! Choong-chun!

I was wondering who you were!

And we meet here! It's already been 5 years.

Don't you remember? At Choong-chun -

Let's go outside.

Teacher!

Yool Joo!

Everything is fine, everything is fine. Seems our girl is feeling a bit lightheaded.

-I'm sorry. -Yes, don't worry. Everything is fine.

(small talk, goodbyes, such)

Goodbye.

Is Yool Joo all right?

Yes.

Why tonight of all nights -

I thought she was getting better.

I think she was tired.

Prosecutor Kim!

Ha ha, I was wondering who he was.

But has it really already been 5 years?

That was the first case I handled when I was working in the Choong-chun courts.

But how do you know him?

He was my fianc�s student.

Ah, I see.

Then, the teacher who was at the site?

Ah. I didn't understand narcolepsy at all.

But I think I can understand it a little after seeing it with my own eyes.

I had heard the teacher fell asleep at the site.

But you know, that case had some weird aspects to it.

What do you mean?

Nothing big. It was closed because of the confession, but -

Ottokire renmawimon.

Ottokire chisatogwa.

Ottokire renmawimon. Ottokire chisatogwa.

Let's talk.

You were the head chef's apprentice?

Yes.

The fateful connection runs deep.

I would say it's excessively strong.

Do you have something to say?

Not really. Nothing special.

We received a call saying he wasn't the suspect.

Kang Wook.

About the murder case you were involved in from 5 years ago...

I wish that the memories from 5 years ago would all just vanish from Yool Joo's head.

She sometimes has nightmares.

KANG WOOK!!!

It's fine. I'll go to her.

You can leave now.

Are you okay?

Tae Hyun.

I saw it again.

It doesn't seem like a dream.

Yeah. That expression is more appropriate.

Let's not talk about that.

I don't want you remembering that incident in any way.

It was a nightmare to you.

And I don't like the way you wake up yelling another man's name.

Tae Hyun -

I wish you wouldn't see Kang Wook again.

Even if it's a coincidence like today, don't meet him again.

And if you do see him again, then you avoid the situation.

I ask of you.

You're not going to work together, right?

Only today.

All right.

Hello, this is Yoon Ja Kyung of "The Evening's Melody."

We cannot see it with our eyes, but we all have red strings tied to our pinkie fingers.

And the other end is tied to that person's fateful other half.

But that string is so tangled that it's hard to find the other end, and sometimes we make mistakes.

I met you again. And... once again we said farewell. -2005.5.13

But someday we will all stand in front of our fateful person with the red string in our hand.

Suh Kang Wook.

Jung Ho Tae.

It's been a while.

So it has.

When did you get out?

It's been a few days.

Must've been hard.

It wasn't that bad.

And you didn't feel cheated?

I wouldn't have been able to live with that.

Kang Wook.

See you later.

Did you wait long?

No.

Let's go.

So are you going to continue working at that restaurant?

Nope. Not going back there.

Why?

Did you cause trouble again?

If you worked there, I would have an excuse to go see you every day.

Refreshing.

What?

You look a little sad.

Did something happen?

Ja Kyung.

Yeah?

You said to me once.

Love is where... If you're holding it, your arms hurt. But if you put it down, your heart hurts.

Yeah.

What about it?

Just. I just suddenly remembered it.

Kang Wook.

What I said before.

I was talking to myself.

Right now, neither my arms nor my heart hurt.

If I look right, you're there. And if I look left, you're there.

I can see you whenever I want. And sometimes you come to see me.

Yoon Ja Kyung, you're too happy.

(yelling the body parts that he's hitting, such as: "head" and "hips". a kendo thing, I guess)

Why? You don't like Suh Kang Wook?

Yes, not very...

Wasn't he your student?

He was, but -

I hear it was intentional.

Suh Kang Wook said yesterday that he disliked you so much at school that he pretended not to know you.

How bad was the relationship for you both to pretend not to know one another?

The way I saw it, he is quite talented.

I hear he prepared the main course yesterday.

Call him. If he was a past student, it might be even better.

Tell him to forget the past, and bring him here, okay?

I got his contact information from the chef.

What are you doing?

You're up?

Dried pollack soup.

Looks good.

It's from an instant meal for one.

Hey, why am I here?

You begged to come.

I tried telling you, no, no.

I gave your grandmother a call.

She says to just live here.

Maybe I will.

And you didn't feel cheated?

I wouldn't have been able to live with that.

Hello?

Hello?

Isn't this Suh Kang Wook's cell phone?

It is, but he can't come to the phone right now.

Excuse me, but who is this?

Are you - Teacher Lee Yool Joo?

Ja Kyung?

Hello.

Kang Wook's taking a shower right now.

Hold on.

It's Teacher Lee Yool Joo.

Hello?

Why?

All right.

Why didn't you tell me you met her yesterday?

I forgot.

I was a little shocked at first, but I quickly forgot about it.

Why did she call?

She wants to meet.

Why?

She has something to say.

Are you going to meet her?

Dunno.

What if I tell you not to?

I shouldn't?

No. Meet her.

You should take care of the unfinished business from yesterday.

A clean break.

How refreshing.

Call me after you're done meeting her. Hyun Suk opened his store today.

Let's go together.

Okay.

Ah, tell me Ho Tae's contact information.

Why?

I have something to ask him.

Anyone home? Anyone home?

Anyone home?

Nobody home?

What is it?

Is this Suh Kang Wook's home?

Yes.

Take this.

And please sign here.

Thank you.

Congratulations on your release. Kim Hyun Chul

Will you tell me if Kim Hyun Chul contacts you?

Prosecutor.

Kim Hyun Chul used a delivery service.

Delivery service?

Receiver is Suh Kang Wook.

I think we'll have to trail him.

It was just a fruit basket.

Did you see what was inside that fruit basket? Did you?

Stop it! Let's not just wildly into this.

Young people don't know their place.

What do you want?

I'm busy.

Oh, are you?

Why did you call me?

We didn't get to talk much yesterday, so I wanted to have a cup of coffee with you.

We're not ones to drink coffee together, are we?

Is that so?

Could it be... you're here because of what I said yesterday?

What did you say?

I asked you if you felt cheated.

Right. You did say something like that.

Speaking of which, I don't feel cheated at all.

I was paying for my crime.

Paying for your crime?

Yeah, paying for my crime.

Don't say anything about feeling cheated in the future.

Makes me feel guilty towards Kyung Oh.

Aren't you busy? Shall we leave?

Shit.

I know everything, bastard.

Nothing much yet on Suh Kang Wook.

But he just went into a restaurant to meet someone.

But I think this is the restaurant that your mother owns.

What did you say?

All right.

I'm sorry. I don't think you wanted to come.

The owner wants to recruit you.

I think she liked you.

What do you want to do?

What do you want me to do?

Don't worry. I won't make things difficult for you.

You make it sound like you won't come work here because of me.

Truthfully, you don't want to see me either.

Isn't that so?

Right. Seeing you is a bit uncomfortable.

Kang Wook -

Don't say my name like that.

What if someone overhears you?

You're the one who told me to leave.

Why are you drudging up the past?

So don't act like you're the one mad at me.

Yeah, Tae Hyun?

Huh? I'm talking with a customer.

No, he's going to leave soon.

Who is it?

Why? Is it someone I shouldn't know about?

I'll call you back later.

You can leave. I'm sorry for making you come here for nothing.

Do you still want me to come back to you?

Should I come back?

Should I?

Tae Hyun.

Kang Wook, we're meeting often.

So we are. Often.

I was just about to leave.

It looks like you still have something to say, did I interrupt you guys?

We're done talking.

I'll be leaving.

Wait a moment.

Why didn't you tell me you were with Kang Wook?

Not like he's a secret customer.

Your mother wants to recruit Kang Wook.

I called him here for that.

My mother? Not you?

Nope. She likes him after seeing him work yesterday.

Yeah?

So are you going to come?

No.

I think that's for the best.

That won't happen.

Tae Hyun, what are you doing?

What?

I told you yesterday, I don't want you meeting Kang Wook again.

Let's go. I told your mother we were coming.

Hey, is it okay to let that guy do this?

Leave him be. He begged us to let him spar.

Really? What a weird guy.

Please leave a message after the tone.

She has something to say.

Mother, you had a knight there?

You used this move often on me.

"Mother, the scariest foe is always hiding one square behind."

Make your move. It's your turn.

I lost this game, Mother.

What do you mean? Your king is still alive.

The strongest piece in chess is the queen. And my queen is captured.

The king's nothing without the queen.

So you're giving up since you lost your queen?

Mother, you see, it's just like me.

I'm nothing without Yool Joo.

I didn't know you could say such (sappy ^^) things.

I feel embarrassed after saying it myself.

Congratulations

Ja Kyung, when is Kang Wook coming?

My eyes are gonna fall out while waiting.

Wait. He'll be here soon.

My eyes are getting tired.

What are you doing?

Da Rae's dad, go flip the fish.

Da Rae's mom, don't hit me, please.

Violence can be excused under no circumstances.

Welcome.

Ho Tae!

Welcome, welcome. Sit.

Bring out the complimentary food.

Why are you alone?

Kang Wook might be meeting Lee Yool Joo right now.

Yoon Ja Kyung, you'll never have Suh Kang Wook.

Let me give you some advice.

There's something you don't know between Kang Wook and me.

So don't butt in.

Should I also give you some advice?

There's a secret between Suh Kang Wook and Lee Yool Joo as well.

What secret?

I can't tell you so easily.

Yoon Ja Kyung, unrequited love always remains in the heart.

Think about it.

Holding on Kang Wook's pants, you're only his second.

Second?

Hey, hey, what's wrong?

Oh no, you're all wet.

Move it! How dirty.

Fine. I'm Kang Wook's second.

But you're not even that to me.

Ho Tae, watch what you say around her. Last time I said something wrong, she slapped me.

You're the one who told me to leave.

Hello?

Ja Kyung, it's oppa.

Sorry I didn't call you earlier. I was a little busy today.

I'm on my way home right now. What are you doing?

Why are you not answering? Can you not hear me?

Why are you here?

Waiting for me?

What's with your face?

This? I passed by a boxing gym.

I did a little sparring.

Why?

Just, it's been a while. There was a picture of gloves on the window.

Hey, my fists are still as strong as ever.

Was it that hard?

Seeing Teacher again, was it so hard you had to cover your body with scars?

Did you wait long?

No, I didn't wait.

I didn't wait, but you didn't call. So I thought you lost your way again.

I was afraid you would end up at the wrong place again and disappear for 5 more years.

Seeing your bruised face is enough. I'm leaving.

I'll take you home.

No need to.

Bye.

I'll let it go just this once.

If you do this again, I won't hug you from behind ever again.

I asked if you felt cheated.

Right. You did say something like that.

Speaking of which -

I trailed him for a few days, but there's nothing yet.

See, I told you so. It's a waste to trail him.

Kim Hyun Chul wouldn't show himself so easily.

Did you trail him? Did you?

Why are you -

Stop it, you two. Rather than trailing Suh Kang Wook, follow the guys who dealt with Kim Hyun Chul before.

I'm not sure. He doesn't want to come.

Manager, that's not how he really feels.

He really has nowhere to go.

Truthfully, I got him a job elsewhere,

but he got fired because he is an ex-con.

He tried looking everywhere for a job, but no one would accept him.

Who would accept an ex-con?

It seemed he went through all kinds of hell.

Thank you.

Don't come.

You promised. Don't come anymore.

Just seeing your face makes my heart collapse.

I'm sorry. I was passing by when I missed your cooking. That's why I'm here.

I'll eat and leave.

Yes, eat and leave.

Grandmother.

Why do you keep calling me? It's hard to say goodbye then. Stop it.

Grandmother.

What?

What if -

What if Kang Wook and I -

Teacher!

Let's live like the past never happened, please?

It's for the best.

Eat and leave!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for meeting you.

I'm sorry for not being able to forget you.

What?

People are looking.

Kang Wook.

I'm getting married.

I haven't forgotten you, but -

with this feeling inside, I'm going to go to Tae Hyun.

I'm sorry I fell in love with you.

I'm really sorry.

For really leaving when you told me to.
