Pick an Ace!

An Ace!

What's the date today?

Do you know?

I always lose track

of the date.

I told you to come back

in a week, not two.

Any siblings?

One sister.

Okay.

How old is she?

Twenty.

No... Nineteen maybe?

I'm bad with numbers.

Give me her birthday.

What color is the light

of the walk signal?

What kind of questions

are these?

Just answer the question.

What was the question?

What do you call

your mother's sister?

What's 18 plus 19?

If I fly a balloon

when the wind moving westward...

which way will it go?

I don't know if this is

good news or bad news.

I just found out myself.

Pardon me?

I'm telling you the truth.

For real?

I don't believe you.

Close the door, will you?

Sit.

I'll stand.

I'm back for good.

They closed the branch in Paris.

I've heard.

We'll be working together.

The table has turned though.

Now I'm single

and you're married.

Is fate playing with us?

Look... I couldn't make it that day

because I was...

I don't remember anything.

See you at the clothing lab.

Now we're in the same boat.

It's only a beginning.

Let's make this work.

A busy worker ant doesn't

have time to be sad, right?

That's the spirit!

- Good job, guys.

- Congratulations.

Don't lose it.

Is this important?

Where were you?

You glued it?

No.

What did the doctor say?

Told me to come back

next week.

Again?

How long will it take

to fill this out?

Say something, doctor.

Analyzing the MRI

and PET scan...

and all the test results...

Abnormal proteins

have clogged up

the veins in your brain...

affecting the brain cells.

I don't understand

a word you're saying.

Speak clearly please...

I'm certain the cause

is largely genetic.

A very rare case.

You have...

Alzheimer's disease.

What?

Alz... what?

Alzheimer.

Alzheimer?

What's that?

The questions I asked were

to diagnose dementia.

But I'm only 27.

How could I be going senile?

It's possible.

So...

What's going to

happen to me?

A mental death will come

before a physical one.

Better prepare yourself

for what's inevitable.

Medicine can slow it down.

But that's about it.

What about surgery?

Do you work?

Yes.

You should quit right away.

Soon you won't be able to

type or answer the phone...

let alone organize things.

Pretty much nothing.

You will forget your family,

friends and even yourself.

All your memories will

disappear completely.

Should I quit my job?

Why?

Why don't I stay home

and do the chores?

Sure, I'd like that.

Why so suddenly?

I don't know.

Tired of working?

It's dog-eat-dog out there.

I'll bring home the bread and milk.

Quit right away.

Maybe I'll quit tomorrow?

Hold on.

What's going on?

Do you want a baby?

A baby?

I don't know.

Never thought about it.

Do it for me.

What?

That.

What?

That...

You mean... in-and-out?

No, that thing you do

with cards.

Grift?

You never win.

Just once.

No, I'm tired.

Please just once.

You're not saying it?

Place your bets.

Even a dog at a glance can win.

Su-jin wins bread money.

Chul-soo wins cigarette money.

Double up your money.

Don't let your luck slip by...

The luck is right

in your hands.

Pick an Ace!

An Ace!

You win.

Won't you be bored?

No.

Hello?

Young-min here.

How could you quit

without notice?

If it's me

let's meet and talk.

No.

I'm not hitting on you!

- I just...

- You want to quit, then follow the rule!

- I just want to stay home.

- What's wrong with you!

If you don't feel comfortable with me

we can meet with other colleagues.

I'll come to the office.

- Here you go.

- Give me one of those

You packed a lunch?

How nice!

The color is so tacky!

Let's see what you have.

Rice!

Looks so good!

What about side dishes?

Is that for me?

You shouldn't have!

Maybe...

you've confused her with someone

else with the same name?

Or the wrong documents...

Hands off!

You won't understand it anyway!

It's your wife.

Are you crazy?

You okay, ma'am?

Why the hell did you

tell her everything?

Why the hell did you

tell her everything?

I am a doctor.

She needs time to prepare

for what's coming.

- You sure about this?

- Of course!

Positive?

If you don't believe me,

take her to another doctor.

Doctor!

Are you sure!

You crazy?

What's wrong with you?

- Are you sure?

- This is a hospital!

Are you sure?

Calm down, sir!

His wife died from it, too.

He's spent half of his life

researching Alzheimer's.

Accept what's real.

You can't change it

Are you alright?

Do you need to see a doctor?

Just a little bit more...

Where are you going?

- I have no idea.

- Excuse me?

I don't believe it.

They're cloning

human beings nowadays.

There must be a cure for this.

I understand.

But your wife is a rare case.

Her symptoms are

very close to my wife's.

It's an old story...

Before my wife died...

I took her to the place

we first met.

Incredibly, she remembered

almost everything then.

I was just so happy

that I couldn't hold back my tears.

I thought things were

coming back to her.

I was so happy.

And about 3 hours later.

She looked at me and said...

Who are you?

Why are you crying?

That's what she said.

Hah, that's a mystery of

human brains, isn't it?

I'm telling you this

from my own experience.

You can't find it in books.

- Hello?

- Who's this?

I found this cell phone

on the street.

What happened?

What happened to her?

That's...

How can I explain this?

Young-min.

Can we go back to...

two years ago?

Two years ago?

What for?

That's even before we met.

What?

What are you thinking about?

Su-jin!

Fool.

Keep your eye on the ball.

It's strange.

I only got 9 balls.

it's actually 10, right?

Isn't it?

Did you find out?

What?

That I have an eraser in my head.

- Let's part ways.

- What?

You were right.

One can't be happy forever.

- What are you talking about?

- It's all over.

Think about it.

What's love good for

if my memory is gone?

Don't be so nice to me.

I'll forget everything.

I'll remember everything

for you.

You know I'm smart.

I passed the architect test

on the first try.

You're too confident.

Life can be very cruel.

You didn't forget that.

How could I?

You're mean.

Don't worry.

There'll be a cure...

You crybaby! Have you lost

your parents or your country?

I'll just leave.

Please let me go, okay?

Want to have a go?

Want to bet on it?

Damn!

Why are you crying?

I said I'd remember

everything for you!

You know what?

If you forget everything

I will pop up out of nowhere.

Like this.

And I'll hit on you.

You won't be able to

turn me down.

We'll start afresh every day.

Like permanent dating.

Awesome, isn't it?

You're going to grow

a goatee again?

Don't bother.

Let's forget everything

while we're happy.

I'll forget everything soon.

I won't know

why you're with me.

You'll be gone out of my head.

And so will I.

You understand that?

As my memory disappears

my soul will disappear too.

I'm scared!

Why would your soul disappear?
