Bestseller

Please let me introduce Beak Hee-soo,

Korea's most prolific woman writer,

Hello,

Welcome,

This is your fourth

best-selling book in a row,

Personally, I envy the fact that

you write a new story every time,

Could you please give us a hint?

On how you write your books?

I always jot down notes,

I write the people and places first

and then think about them.

That's how I build them.

If I have an idea to write a story,

I would attach the right characters.

Then they become Iike real people,

With behaviors and thoughts.

I just write the story.

You must be very busy,

With no time to rest.

Even my daughter and

husband are in my notes.

They're all materials.

Some people I met today.

Could also be included.

This new book has been a bestseller

for three weeks in a row.

Apart from your previous works,

How did you write...?

Cut!

What's going on?

What's the matter?

How could you do this?

You really don't trust me?

I've told you many times already.

PIease trust me.

Don't bring that up again,

You never even tried to Iisten.

I've never read that book.

I swear!

How long will you keep this up?

You could've made a mistake,

Mistake?

I never make mistakes.

Want me to tell you again?

It was submitted for you to judge,

You read that book!

So you're saying that

I plagiarized?

Quiet! Shut up!

Let's stop,

I'm asking you out of all people.

- Please, stop this,

- Don't you understand me?

You get too obsessed with things,

Just say that you didn't know,

or that it was unintentional!

Baek Hee-soo has written many

Bestsellers for the last 20 years,

But it's been confirmed that

she has plagiarized her latest work,

It was one of the books she

read during a writing competition,

Two years later

It'II be okay once we get there.

Did you see the picture?

This is very important to Mom.

I need a quiet place with no people.

You understand, right?

Are you going to divorce Dad?

Is it because of me?

No.

Grown-ups, you see...

Sometimes they don't

want to Iive together.

Then is it because of Mom?

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Your daughter is very pretty.

By any chance,

are you the writer from Seoul?

But I thought you were

coming here tomorrow.

Oh no!

Don't worry about this.

Dad...

You bastard,

the memorial are already over.

The writer is here!

Hurry!

The writer! She's here!

How are you, Ma'am?

What a surprise!

When did you come?

It's the writer from Seoul!

She's beautiful!

PIease come have some food.

Stop talking and go set up a seat.

Hurry and get the food ready.

We ran out of meat.

What do you mean we ran out?

I told you to prepare it

in advance, you idiot!

Shut up and escort her.

We prepared some food

for a memorial service.

Take a Iook at this!

I told him to hang

that up yesterday.

Welcome, Writer Park Hee-soo!

The wind is blowing too much.

We planned to have that

ready before you came.

What's the use now?

I fixed up the house

as much as I could.

It Iooks old, doesn't it?

This house is over sixty years old.

After Korea's independence,

an American missionary named Bates

raised orphans here during the war.

There's no villa Iike this in Korea.

So many writers

from Seoul came here.

The house repairs are almost done.

The roof needs a Iittle work.

When it rains, it may Ieak.

That plastic is only temporary.

Our youth group will come

fix it in a few days.

PIease don't Iet anyone

interrupt me while I'm here.

But we don't know when it'II rain.

No one can defy heaven's will.

Yeah, can't deny the will of heaven.

You damn woman!

I told you not to come here!

Why'd she come here again?

Don't pay any attention to her.

When no one's here,

she comes here and sleeps.

This is a very nice town

to Iive in.

This town got an award

for being crimeless, you see.

Have you seen my daughter?

Yeun-hee.

Yeun-hee!

Yeun-hee!

Yeun-hee!

Yeun-hee!

Yeun-hee!

Yeun-hee!

How could you disappear Iike that?

It's dangerous.

Yeun-hee.

It's a very old place.

It'II be a bit uncomfortable.

No, but I'd Iike to stay.

Okay.

How long are you going to hide?

It's been two years!

I gave you enough time.

Don't worry about those bastards

who claim that it's plagiarism.

Who said it's plagiarism?

Yeah, no one pays attention to

people Iike them.

You know better

so what's wrong with you?

Everyone is on your side.

They're waiting for your next book.

That's not it.

The problem is me.

I can't think of anything.

You mean going blank in

front of the monitor?

That's because you're always

cooped up in your house.

Writer's block?

That's made to overcome.

Hard to write at home,

isn't it?

At the committee meeting Iast week,

I Iearned of a great place.

Writers said that

it's the best place to write.

Oh yeah, the next Iiterary award

is still up for grabs.

I've already talked

with the committee.

I assure you that all that talk

about plagiarism will disappear this time.

Where's that picture? Here it is.

Here.

Despite what people say,

I want you to know that

I still believe in you.

There isn't an editor out there

who cares for you Iike me.

Missionary John Bates Orphanage

Do you Iive here?

What's wrong with your head?

It doesn't hurt?

What song is that?

Why does he always get on my case?

Why are you taking my picture?

Oh, it's the writer Iady

from Seoul.

Is that villa okay?

Be careful.

A ghost Iives there.

Yeun-hee.

Hurry and go inside.

My mom is very busy.

Really?

She'II Iike the story?

A dragon?

What's a dragon?

Is it still alive?

But does it hurt if you die?

Don't Iaugh.

A Iost baby bird

Cries because it misses its mom

What are you doing here?

I'm playing with my friend.

Your friend?

Where's your friend?

She's gone.

Where did she go?

Another hypothesis is that

it's an unconscious hypnosis phenomenon.

A book read or

a situation seen before

is recorded in the subconscious.

We delude that

it's our own thought.

Unconscious plagiarism

is quite common.

More cases exist where the person

is unaware of the plagiarism.

Then that must be true

for writer Baek Hee-soo.

- Stop it.

- Why?

That prick.

Change the topic of your Iecture.

What brings you here?

Do I always need a reason

to be here?

Why'd you do such a useless thing?

You heard?

Hee-soo needs to make her comeback.

We can't Iet her rot Iike that.

Don't pull her back in for money.

Hey, I told you that's not why!

A writer who plagiarized

ends up doing it again.

Who says so?

Mozart plagiarized

and so did Einstein.

Hendel is supposedly

the king of plagiarism.

Who hasn't plagiarized once

in their Iives?

Writing is medicine for Hee-soo.

Regretting ruins people.

Two years have passed.

It's time to forgive her.

I'm not interested.

Frankly, you're also worried!

For someone who wants to divorce,

why do you run to her when she calls?

With the passing wind

My mother's voice is being carried

Tweep, tweep

Tweep, tweep

The baby bird stops to rest
