TYPHOON FAMILY
Aren't you glad we found a place that's still open at this hour?
I agree.
Goodness, all of these are in great condition.
Someone must love ripe persimmons very much.
It's our CEO.
I want him to have some tomorrow.
That's why I have to pick out the prettiest one.
-This one's pretty, isn't it? -Yes, it's pretty.
That one's pretty. Careful.
What did our CEO do so wrong to you people?
How could you not show up at all?
Sure, you were busy.
So, you sent artificial flowers because you were busy?
Artificial flowers, good grief!
Hello? Hey, what on earth?
This punk just hung up.
Darn it.
Yes.
This is what happened.
Mr. Kang came to the office
and told us he was sorry.
He had no reason to be sorry.
I… Sure.
I don't think I can talk now.
Why…
Why was he sorry?
Jin-young,
how was life for you?
I wanted to ask after we got a bit older.
Fare… Farewell.
Goodbye.
COLLEGE SCHOLASTIC ABILITY TEST, ID SLIP OH MI-SEON
The northern part of Seoul Subway Line 2 is undergoing construction,
from Seongsu-dong, Seongdong-gu…
Are you reading the newspaper?
I'm leaving.
Dad always asked me to polish his shoes as a wish.
My gosh. My shoes sparkle and shine as always.
Look.
He said his day goes well when he wears the shoes his son polished.
-Have a great day, Daddy. -Bye.
-Have a great day. -Bye!
Bye, Daddy.
That was why I made 100 wish coupons.
WISH COUPON
Aren't these beautiful?
It's boring.
What do you mean?
Do you see how these flowers are falling?
After that, it'll begin to bear delicious apricots.
Oh, right.
Look, Tae-poong.
When people see flower petals falling,
they say the flowers are withering.
But that's not it.
The flowers are trying their best to win
and bear fruit.
I wanted my dad to see
that I found something I liked, thanks to him.
That I too was doing my best to make my flowers bloom and bear fruit.
But he did not give me that chance.
What was the last conversation I had with him?
That was all I had on my mind for three days straight.
-Please have some. -Thank you.
-Hello. -Hello.
Is this Typhoon Trading?
-Yes, sign here. The envelopes are… -We're actually here
-for this money… -Hey, wait!
-What do you think you're doing? -Hey, let go of this!
-Tae-poong! Come out now! -Snatch it from him!
-Who are they? -What's going on?
-You can't take this away! -Stop this man!
-Get away from me! -Don't lay a hand on it, you punk!
I'm going to teach you a lesson today.
Hey, Tae-poong!
Gosh, what's with them?
-What's going on? -Are you
Mr. Kang's son?
I'm the CEO of a company your father did business with.
He still has an unpaid balance.
Unpaid balance?
What's wrong?
Don't you know what it is?
He owes me money!
Everyone in the industry heard Mr. Kang went under
because he failed to pay his dues!
What can I do? I've got no choice but to take that.
Or you can pay me right now.
Sir, you can't do this here.
Hey, let's talk it out, okay? And just leave that alone.
-Take it. -Yes, sir.
-No! -You can't take that!
-Get off me! -Don't do this!
-My gosh! What is this? -My goodness!
Nam-mo!
CONDOLENCE MONEY
-Let go of this! -Let them take it.
-No, this is just wrong. -They came to get their money,
so give them some and let them go.
Let them have it.
Should I really let this go?
He must've been that desperate.
He must be so desperate
that he has no time to say his goodbyes to a business partner
who's lying cold right now.
And it's all for a pitiful amount of money.
What?
A pitiful amount of money? Hey, you punk.
Why do you think your father went down? Hmm?
Why do you think he passed away?
-Take it! -Yes, sir.
-No, you can't! -He told us to take it!
Get lost!
What's going on?
CONDOLENCE MONEY
I'm the bookkeeper at Typhoon Trading.
Yes, I know. It's you.
Mr. Kang said you were quite clever.
There's no unpaid balance. Our cycle is 70 days.
Okay, then. Take a look at this.
Look.
It's past due.
Article 5, Paragraph 3 of our contract with you says,
"Payment shall be made on the later of the invoice date or the postmark date."
-Precisely. -The invoice is dated September 12th,
but because of Chuseok, it's postmarked September 18th.
SEPTEMBER 18TH, 1997
What?
Oh, my. How do you remember these things?
This isn't our company's fund. It belongs to Mr. Kang's family.
Do you realize taking this is theft?
What now? Don't be cheeky. You're just a girl who runs bank errands.
-Hey! -What's wrong with you?
Is that you, Mr. Choi?
-Hello. -It's been a while.
Yes.
Sir.
You're still as vigorous as young people.
CONDOLENCE MONEY
Hey, Mr. Kang.
Open your eyes.
I need to see your eyes to know.
Where is it?
Tell me.
Where is it?
Did he accept it?
He said he'll think about it.
Now that he has accepted it, his heart is bound to follow.
-Let's go. -Yes.
Nam-mo.
-Nam-mo. -Yes?
-Go inside and sleep. -No, they might take this.
I need to keep this safe.
Hello, everyone.
You're watching the weekend night News Desk.
This past week has been deeply disgraceful and humiliating.
The rise of the new economic model
made us think we've joined the ranks of advanced nations,
but we fell into a heap of debt and became a third-rate country overnight.
In these trying times,
I believe the people should fight against sadness and pain
in place of the nation.
What a joke.
Sadness
isn't something you fight against.
It's something you let pass by.
Survival comes first, doesn't it?

EPISODE 2 ASPHALT MAN
Thanks to you,
we get to drive your dad's car home.
When he first bought this car,
we drove this all the way to Cheongpyeong Lake
and had pork galbi together.
He called himself a big success
after getting this car.
He rarely smiled, but he did on that day.
Mom.
Don't you worry about a thing.
You know I'm an all-rounder, right?
Except for parking.
Of course, I do.
I raised you into a man who's good at everything.
No.
Tae-poong, wait. Hold on.
No, you have to turn it the other way.
-Right now? -Yes.
-Just… -Okay.
-No, wait. -Okay. I got it.
-Do it slowly. -Okay.
Do it slowly.
-Be careful. -Oh, my, hold on.
-Okay. We're here now. -It's okay.
-You can do this. -I got it now.
-Do I go left now? -Yes.
-Turn it to the left side. -The left?
-The left. -Wait.
No, not all the way.
No, stop steering. Stop!
Stop!
This is why
your dad should've bought you a car a long time ago.
Why was that so hard for him?
He would never listen.
Don't be alarmed. You're fine.
Why are you looking back? Careful.
Wait. You're about to crash!
-Stop! -No!
Stop the car! Stop.
Did you crash into it?
I don't know.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
-What are you doing? -My gosh.
Where are you going at this hour?
Oh.
-A job interview. -What job interview?
I thought you passed all three interviews with Korea Airways?
It's not that.
It's just so absurd.
My recruitment got canceled.
Something about the IMF crisis.
What? Canceled?
I shouldn't sit around, so I'll just get a part-time job.
I can't believe it.
It's the first cancellation they've done,
and it happened to be me.
How ridiculous.
-You need to see this, Deputy Manager. -Take a look.
How can they do this to us?
PERSONNEL TRANSFER NOTICE
-What do we do now? -My gosh.
Don't you think this is too much?
Pull yourself together, everyone.
Let us not panic.
But remember.
Don't sign the resignation blindly.
Are they allowed to do this?
-What are you doing? -Hey!
-That's my desk! -Wait!
-Drop it! -Stop them.
-Let it go! -You can't do this!
Drop the desk!
Let it go! Why are you taking this?
-Our lives are at stake! -Stop it!
Hey.
Mr. Typhoon.
Why don't you ever cry?
If you don't cry when you need to,
you'll fall ill sooner or later.
No reason.
The tears won't come.
I'm not sure if I'm sad or angry.
I guess I haven't decided yet.
Hey, look at me.
Will you look at me?
I can't tell what this punk is thinking.
You used to be transparent.
I have to put on a suit to go to an office, right?
No idea. I've never been to one.
What are you supposed to wear?
I should look as formal as possible.
FOR SALE FOR LEASE
ON SALE EVERYTHING HALF OFF
TYPHOON TRADING
They all resigned.
Don't you think this is too much?
Did they even find a job?
Everyone is getting fired these days.
Kids these days have zero commitment.
Kids born after 1970
all need to shave their heads and get a mental reform.
I was born in 1968, the Year of the Monkey.
There's no use in holding back those who left.
Let's wrap up our deal with Daebang Textile,
and find enough money to pay out our overdue salary.
Wait a second.
We got an order for 50,000 m, so how much is that worth?
Hey, how much was it per meter?
Give me a moment.
I'm in charge of logistics,
-so I don't know the unit price. -Wait.
It was 112,400,000 won,
excluding the value-added tax.
Right.
It's a relief we paid Italy up front.
Think of the exchange rate.
Just the thought makes me shudder.
It was 907 won when we signed the contract,
but I saw that it was 1,080 won this morning!
Mr. Kang made a few advance payments out of his pocket.
He worked so freaking hard on it,
but now he's gone.
Do apartment units in his area
cost about 200 million won per 34 pyeong?
That's what we call a bubble.
It has already dropped by 20 million won.
Even the rich can't live through the IMF crisis.
Why don't we do this?
Let's all go down together, okay?
It'll feel awful if only the poor go down.
Isn't that Mr. Kang's
son?
Mr. Kang's son?
What's he wearing?
Look at how he's dressed.
What's he wearing inside?
He's dressed like Solid.
My gosh. Just like Solid.
Pass him a cue stick or something.
He's dressed like a pop star.
Is he here to treat us after wrapping up the funeral?
Jeez, dummy.
It wasn't an occasion to celebrate.
Good morning.
What brings you here?
I came to get my father's stuff.
We should tell him, right?
-Yes, of course. -Yes.
Since he's already here,
let's tell him we'll be getting money from Daebang Textile.
Of course.
Mr. Kang was also behind on his paychecks,
and he even made a few payments himself.
Wait a second.
Let's think this out first,
then give him whatever Mr. Kang's portion is.
I mean, what if Mr. Kang's son uses his status as heir
to take away all company assets and close down the business?
-Who'll take responsibility? -He wouldn't.
He's not that smart.
Remember the huge fuss when he went to college?
Oh, right.
TYPHOON TRADING
Knock everything down!
Typhoon Trading must be doing great.
You're sitting here with the heater on in this IMF crisis.
Not only couldn't I pay my employees here,
but they now have nothing to eat at home.
Hey, actually,
I served in the Marines, so let's talk man-to-man.
You can't suddenly barge in here without an appointment--
Suddenly?
-I barged in suddenly? -My gosh!
-Suddenly? -Hey, man!
-Why are you doing this? -Oh, my gosh.
Hey.
Where's that smart girlie?
-Hey, you, bookkeeper. -Me?
-Get over here. -Wait!
CONTRACT
Look.
You must have nothing to say now. Give me my money!
Hey, it's not like we have cash piled up in our office!
Sure, of course not.
I'm not that ignorant.
Now, look.
This joint surety says you'll pay me until a certain date.
JOINT SURETY
I need you to sign this.
Who's the CEO here?
Who's Mr. Kang's replacement?
Who is it?
-What's wrong with you? -I won't let this go!
I'll sign that joint surety.
You're his son.
What right do you have?
What do you do here?
I'm an employee.
An employee? Since when?
-Today. -Fine.
Sign it.
-I must find a collateral. -You can't…
This was the CEO's office, right?
This is the lease contract for this office.
An office this size in Ulchiro can serve as collateral.
Move aside.
Give that back. That was my father's.
I said I'd take responsibility.
Hey, Tae-poong.
Deals always come with conditions.
It'll be more bizarre if I left,
just trusting the words of a mere employee.
When someone is nice to you for no reason,
stay suspicious and see what they're hiding up their sleeve.
Got it?
Also, it's now
your responsibility to retrieve this from me.
-You still can't… -Let's go.
Darn it.
-That hurts! -Darn it!
-So… -Man.
Anyway, what's he going to do?
Doesn't he know how scary a joint surety is?
What if he doesn't know what it is?
This is big trouble.
Can we handle the payout once we get the money from Daebang Textile?
He looks like the type who interferes without thinking.
-What are you doing? -Mi-seon.
Why are you going in?
He has to sign this.
If he's planning to work here, I need his paperwork.
CEO'S OFFICE
You know, she scares me the most.
That isn't nosiness or ambition. What is that?
Devotion for the company.
Devotion for her company?

Mom.
My gosh! Come on!
-Goodness! -Gosh!
Oh, my gosh.
Why did you suddenly barge in?
What's all this, Mom?
It's December, and it'll be Christmas soon.
What do you think?
It's the mink coat your dad got me.
It looks great.
Our electricity got cut off.
So naturally, the boiler stopped working, too.
You must be cold.
-Should I get you a jacket? -What?
No, I'm fine.
Anyway,
-are we that broke? -We are.
I seem like such a fool without your dad, don't I?
You really are a fool, Mom.
-The phone is unplugged. -No, don't touch that!
What?
It works without electricity?
-Hello? -No!
You fucking assholes!
Are you enjoying your life after stealing my money?
-Give me my-- -Goodness. What now?
Are you in shock?
Are you all right? Oh, no.
Yes, I'm fine. My friends and I
also swear at each other and call each other punks.
-I'm fine. Yes. -You are?
It's cold right now. Should we eat something?
No, I have to go back to the office
-to grab some stuff. -Right. I see.
Why did Dad keep so much stuff?
That's what we call the stain of time.
He was an organized guy,
but he practically lived there for the last 26 years.
A lot of things must've piled up.
The stain of time?
Those books and logs he loved so much.
All of those are who he is.
Anyway, Mom, don't pick up those calls.
I'll pick them up now.
It's okay. I unplugged it.
Good job.
Let's put this on together.
It's too cold.
Oh, gosh.
You must be cold.
Do we have more candles?
No, these are all.
COLLEGE SCHOLASTIC ABILITY TEST
Why is this so clean?
PAST EXAM QUESTIONS, LANGUAGE ARTS
What are you doing?
What is this?
Didn't you take the test?
Why not?
I can't afford to study.
Hey, worry about yourself.
If they canceled the recruitment this year,
they'll hire again next year.
I said I'd do anything to pay for your tuition.
I'll support you just as you supported me.
You aren't my mom or dad!
Why do you keep carrying all the burden?
I'll do whatever I can to pay you back!
Stop doing this.
-Get up, Mi-seon. -Let go of me.
-No! -Darn it!
Of course, you have to pay me back, you silly human.
What about your studies?
Everything I studied is still mine.
Everything is in my head.
I'm fine.
Mi-seon.
It's okay. Don't cry.
Don't cry. I'm fine.
What is this mess?
Everything is a wreck at home and at work.
Look at that.
-Mister. -Yes?
Mr. Typhoon!
Hey, I knew it was you.
-I got you first. -Whatever.
-A secret safe? -Yes.
Hey.
What if there are gold bars inside?
That'd be so great.
Hey, I heard my dad's business had an unpaid balance.
Do you know what that is?
Yes, something that's not paid. Otherwise, it would be paid.
-It'd be nice if we could pay it back. -What?
-I should tell people at work, right? -Why?
The safe is there because there's a secret.
If it's a secret, I shouldn't see it either, right?
No matter what you find, take it to your grave.
-Anyway, will you keep working there? -No.
I'll return to the plant nursery once everything wraps up.
But it was your dad's business.
Exactly. It wasn't mine.
Anyway, why are you drinking liquor in that big glass?
My dear mother, Ms. Kim, was placed on standby at work.
On standby?
She's sitting out in the hallway all day in this cold.
I told her to quit, but she kept insisting on staying.
But I still have one more big hit waiting.
What now?
What is it?
What? Did you pass the preliminaries?
-Yes, I did! -Really?
Once I pass the final audition,
then I'll debut and perform here, there, and everywhere, kid.
Hey, man. Guys!
He's going to be a singer! Come here.
Nam-mo is going to be a singer!
-Look at you! -Hey, stop it!
-You're ruining my hair! -Those broke punks are too loud.
My man, Tae-poong,
still won't shut up even after his family went under.
Let's just ignore him.
Hey, sidekick.
You, sidekick.
Hey.
Aren't you sick and tired of him?
That's not Yu-rim…
I get it. You got dumped again.
That girl?
I have a lot to say about her.
Her dad signed a joint surety by mistake and got locked up or something.
How pathetic is that?
You two can check in on her since you're all broke now.
Hey, Tae-poong.
Let's go.
Your mom will be worried.
Okay.
Good one.
Kids are like that these days.
They don't have a shred of compassion.

You've reached Typhoon Trading. Go Ma-jin speaking.
Goodness!
I can't believe you called me yourself, sir.
I passed that to the manager.
It's 11:30 a.m.
Let's have our meeting before lunch.
About the fabric from Italy.
Yesterday,
I sent the belated statements to Incheon Port.
Will it be delivered in two days if it comes into port today?
Yes, we can make it if it leaves Incheon right away.
We'll be in big trouble if this goes wrong.
You know, right?
We're going to go bankrupt.
Why do you say that? Are you trying to jinx us?
Going bankrupt? Words have power!
Ms. Cha.
-Knock on wood! -Fine. Knocking.
Be careful with your words.
I'm just saying this is that important.
Once we get paid by Daebang Textile,
calculate Mr. Kang's portion and hand it over.
Yes, we should do that.
Gosh.
I went to Tae-poong's…
Yes?
Oh, my. He's a grown-up now.
I mean, Mr. Kang, I attended your first birthday party.
Do you remember, Mr. Koo?
You grabbed money back then.
-Isn't that right? -He did.
Yes, I see. Thank you.
My goodness.
By the way,
what would you say are the most important four digits for Typhoon Trading?
-Let's get back to work. -Right.
I'm starving.
Jeez.
They dodged the question.
A GREAT PLAN FOR 100 YEARS
What about lunch, Tae-poong?
We're getting chueotang.
I'll get a hamburger. I don't really like chueotang.
You're having bread?
-Eat some rice. -Enjoy your lunch.
He doesn't know the basics of corporate life.
Excuse me.
Why did you want to know the important numbers?
For training purposes.
Two, zero, seven, two.
-What? -Did you notice
the calligraphy in the meeting room?
"A great plan for 100 years."
Mr. Kang had a dream to make a business that'll last 100 years.
So, the 100th year would be the year 2072.
So it's 2, 0, 7, and 2.
That's just my take.
-Enjoy your lunch. -Thanks. Enjoy your lunch.
Do you like chueotang?
-No. -Why would you go if you don't like it?
Have lunch with me.
We must move as a team at work even if you don't like it.
It's a part of your job.
Going to lunch is a part of work?
Wedding anniversary?
Mom's birthday.
A stethoscope? What is this? Why did Nam-mo give me this?
Okay.
Please cut open.
Darn it! It won't even budge.
Two, zero, seven, two.

I'm jealous he gets to eat at home.
He finally wore himself down after making that huge scene.
Well, kids these days are all like him.
Let's eat lunch. What should we eat?
-How about chueotang? -I'm so sick of it.
-Seolleongtang. -Goodness.
-How about pork cutlet? -We have to eat rice.

You can talk to me.
You must have something to say to me.
It's kind of funny to say something like this here,

You're the only one I can ask for help.
Well…
I want to learn how to do my job.
I want to know what my duties are

Something like that.
Why all of a sudden?
I thought about it

-That should do. -I'll send it over, then.
-Here's the sales statement. -Sure.
TAX INVOICE
-Check the departure time. -Sure.
-I talked to Mr. Baek. -Here.
All right. Tell them that we'll leave soon.
I'm sorry I'm late.
My goodness. What happened to him?
What's going on?
Who's that?
He's unrecognizable.
-That wasn't his style. -Oh, my.
My goodness.
Should we ask where he's going?
What a great beauty.
You're a good-looking man.
Don't people say that to women?
He often uses expressions he isn't sure of.
Are you leaving for a delivery to Daebang Textile?
Yes, right.
Yes, I am.
May I come along?
Why do you two have to come here with me?
I should come as the rookie.
The fax is broken, so I couldn't send the detailed statement,
and we have to get paid quickly.
A day of delay won't put us in trouble.
-You're so inflexible. -It's better not to be late.
-Hello. -Hello.
Please be careful.
-It's luxury fabric, so don't scratch it. -Okay.
Yes, okay.
You can load them.
A bit higher. Okay.
Have you been well?
What is this? You don't have to do this.
What is that?
Cigarettes? I'm not sure.
We should be glad if we have any job at all.
The country has gone down.
Tell me about it.
How long will it take today?
The roads aren't crowded these days, right?
-Who are they? -Them?
-Hello. -He's Mr. Kang's son.
You don't have to mind him.
There's no way he'll last long.
Mr. Go Ma-jin.
Who are you to judge that?
-Hey. -Mr. Kim!
Come here.
-Me? -Come here.
Yes, sir.
Come here.
Hey,
I like the look in your eyes.
But you know, this is a rough job.
It'll be tough.
But consider yourself dead and hang in there.
Then you'll live to see tomorrow after a tough day today.
Yes, sir.
-I understand, sir. -Good.
All right. Let's get going.
Don't let the gas run dry. Let's go!
Off you go!
Drive safely!
This way, please.
Please drive safely!
Goodbye!
Oh, my.
Did he leave without us?
We should get going, too.
To 1-15 Nam-ri, Nongong-eup, Dalseong-gun.
Do you always memorize addresses?
Any music you like?
Hey, turn right 200 m ahead.
-Exit at three o'clock. -Where?
This way. Yes.
-At your three o'clock. -Now?
Yes, right now. This way.
-Wait. -Turn right.
This is it.
Okay.
Wait.
Hey. Watch it.
Take it slow.
-Slowly! -Oh, no, it's fine.
Should I look?
-No, wait. Goodness. -We're here. Stop.
We're here. That was perfect.
-Did you park it straight? -Yes.
It's so perfect.
Please step out.
My heart is racing.
I guess we got here first.
You were so good with the map.
-Goodness. Hello. -Hello.
You must be from Typhoon Trading.
Yes.
Where's the fabric?
We got here first.
Is that so?
Well, it's a chilly day.
-Come in for a cup of tea. -Sure.
-Okay. -Let's go.
Wasn't the drive quite long?
-It really was. -I see.
But there was no traffic,
-so we came quickly. -She's like a map.
I brought the detailed statement.
-I see. -May I fax it over with the receipt?
Of course. Our office is right over there,
-so go ahead. -Okay.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Where's the fax machine?
-Over here. -Right.
This way, please.
I hear Daebang Textile has a long history.
I started here when I was 23, so it's been over 30 years.
I see.
-And has it always been here? -Yes, that's right.
The factory over there was built 15 years ago.
Oh, right. Let me run over to grab the seal and the receipt.
-Okay. -Yes, sure.
You really are a fool, Mom.
-The phone is unplugged. -No! Don't touch that!

REUSABLE MEDIUM ENVELOPES
The stain of time?
Those books and logs he loved so much.
He was an organized guy,
but he practically lived there for the last 26 years.
A lot of things must've piled up.
Ms. Oh, something seems odd.
What is?
Things are too quiet and clean.
It's nice.
That's not what I mean.
It's the stain of time.
I don't see that.
It can't be this neat if they were around for 30 years.
There are no sent faxes,
and there's nothing in the trash cans, either.
And the fax machine that broke down
isn't ours, but theirs.
Look at the plug over there.
It's pulled out.
You're right.
It means they cannot accept calls.
Or there must be something that they want to hide,
like ledgers.
Isn't it a bit cold in here?
I know it's winter,
but it must be uncomfortable to work in such thick winter jackets.
-Don't send the fax. -What?
What do you mean?
Do not stamp the seal, okay?
Please trust me this once. Please? Okay?
Where are you going? Hey.
What's going on?
You can't go. Turn around!
Hey! Move aside!
We cannot
deliver those to Daebang Textile!
Move!
What's with that man?
What's with him?
What the heck, Mr. Kang?
One moment, sir.
-Daebang… -What?
-No. -What?
What's that?
We shouldn't deliver those to Daebang.
Why do you say so?
-Do they not want it? -No, not that.
It's not that.
Something is off.
-Is that so? -Yes.
What the heck is this nonsense?
Do you think you can joke around at work?
Hey!
What's going on?
Are we going or not?
One second, sir.
I'm so sorry.
We'll go.
Do you know how much this is worth?
Jeez, you must be drunk.
Have you gone crazy? Move it!
-Just move it. -Wait.
No, we can't go.
If we deliver those, we'll end up…
Yes, unpaid balance. We won't get paid.
-Stop jinxing this and just get lost! -No.
-Just get lost! -Please!
We won't get paid!
I told you to get lost!
Good grief!
No.
We cannot go.
We just can't.
I get it now.
You are a total nutjob.
Just drive over him, sir.
He'll get scared and move.
-Really? -Yes.
Should I just drive over him?
Young man.
Try to stay if you can.
I'm not scared.
I'm not scared at all.
How pretty.
Dad…

I don't know which company you'll end up in,
but they'll be tortured.
-Excuse me. -My gosh!
I suppose you don't use this often?
It's rather run-down.
Why don't we return it?
Even after 30% fees, we still end up with a profit.
Are you interested?
-You feel fine, don't you? -Yes.
Oh, man.
Mr. Kang!
I knew this would happen.
This contract is ridiculous.
I think we're really going under.
It's not over yet.
No one can take this.
