It won't hurt after

your muscles relax.

Mom...

Why were you even born?

COIN LOCKER GIRL

A baby was abandoned

in a coin locker.

A beggar at the subway station

discovered the child.

A newborn covered in blood

crying at the top of her lungs.

The beggars named

the child ll-young.

Found in coin locker #10,

II-young (one-zero).

That's my name.

F*** off!

F*** off?

- Yeah, f*** off!

- Get out!

I'm staying!

Let go, faggots!

Detective Tak,

you really shouldn't.

Let me out!

Ma Photo Studio

Did you get seasick?

No.

Pull up your shirt.

Never had a surgery.

I'm healthy.

Here.

"Body Abandonment Note"

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sit.

It's a loan.

You should get settled.

Thank you.

Thank you!

Next!

Mom.

You're still alive?

Thought poker killed you.

This one's good and strong.

It's not a child,

but more like a beast.

With no birth registration,

it's clean.

Clear my interest

with the others

and subtract this one

from the principal.

How much?

Tak, you brought trouble.

Loans, Financing

Ma Enterprise

Loans, Errands, Personal Affairs

My mom is very ill.

We need money for medicine.

u-young!

How much did you earn?

I earned a lot.

Spicy rice cakes again?

Uncle, can't we have

something else?

I like spicy rice cakes.

- I don't.

- I don't like it, either.

Where are we going?

Somewhere fun?

- A waterpark!

- The zoo!

A waterpark! The zoo!

A swimming pool!

Uncle, I'll be good!

I'll earn more money!

Not crying?

Close the door.

Let's go.

Where?

Mom.

Order

- two more noodles.

- Double portion.

Im hungry-

Get up.

Time to work.

Why just stare,

when you can help?

If you become useless

I'll kill you, too.

We don't need new ashtrays.

Just get high on

f***ing philopon, f*ggot.

Whatever, b*tch.

Hurry and mix.

Get lost.

Gang Seyoon.

$4K loaned on July 11.

With interest, it's total $12K.

Due date, today.

Right?

Pay UP-

Crazy motherf***er...

I f***ing will,

dirty b*tch...

Shuffled up?

I'm f***ing out of luck.

Hurry UP-

Pay.

The money.

Sh*t...

You're driving me crazy.

Okay.

I will...

A few punches first.

Honey, where are you?

Who are these men?

Well, I mean

I'll pay back

until next week.

I promise.

But my wife...

What's the bet?

- $500

- $3,000

- Wait.

- You're on!

You know how you'll pay

if you lose.

Go on.

Rich.!

Ron.

Oh, no...

Thank you!

I really appreciate it.

Thank you very much!

I'll work really hard

from now on.

Thank you.

My wife has a kidney disease

so I needed money

for medicine...

I'm not finished.

What?

For my bruise.

In your mouth.

Okay...

You need money?

Back in the business?

Well, I guess so.

This is all I know

how to do.

Did you see Tak

at the casino?

Yes, I saw Tak.

That son of a b*tch

lives in the casino.

Seems like he's

thrown away his badge.

Took two of these

for gambling money.

Well, you're still alive.

Still not selling

spicy rice cakes?

I'd rather eat dung.

She looks new.

An employee?

Huh?

You're back early.

Where's Mom?

- Went somewhere.

- ll-young's back!

You d*ckhead!

Took your pills?

Look what you did...

Keep on forgetting

and you'll die.

Ate them now.

Hongju won't die.

This came.

Il-young...

Who's Ma Wuhee?

Mom.

Mom's name is Ma Wuhee?

It really fits her.

That's why

it's Ma Enterprise.

U-young!

Blue in the top cabinet,

yellow in the lower one.

- White checks under the chest.

- Okay.

Hi Hongju,

I'm Jeon Jihyun.

Hongju's picture is strange.

- No, it looks the same.

- What's the market price?

A cornea is$10 or $15K.

Kidneys...

- $15K?

- Dirt cheap

I met Chido today.

The f***er is so impatient.

What about Park Gitae?

He'll meet the deadline.

I don't think so.

Heard the bluffer was

in the Philippines.

I say he's about to beat it.

He's still punctual

when paying interest.

With his son in Korea,

he wouldn't run away.

He might try to hide his son.

From now on,

receive the interest

in person.

Il-young will go.

Again?

Soon ll-young will outrun Gon.

Yes, Mom.

They borrow money,

then never answer.

Hongju, that's enough.

No, Hongju ate and had his pills

so Hongju must work.

Hongju listens to Mom.

If Hongju becomes useless

Mom will kill Hongju.

Leaving now?

Yes, why?

You won't need it,

but you never know.

I have one, too.

Be careful.

I can go instead.

What's wrong with you?

Park Suk-hyun

Aren't you getting in?

Yes, Mom.

I'm here.

I'll call you later.

Who is it?

You...

At the elevator.

Park Suk-hyun?

Yes, that's me.

Did you come for money?

Please come in, ma'am.

Ill pay You-

Where are you from?

You don't seem like

a person from the bank.

A non-monetary institution?

But I made all the

necessary deposits.

Ma Enterprise.

Starting from this week I'll come

to receive the money.

In cash.

I see.

Would you like something to drink?

Wait...

You haven't eaten yet, have you?

What do you like?

No groceries...

What about pasta?

Cream or tomato?

- What about oil pasta?

- Hey!

Don't worry, I'll pay.

But after you eat.

We all need to eat.

Try some.

Do you prefer chopsticks?

Wait...

Here they are, ma'am.

Hey!

Yes?

Stop calling me ma'am.

I'm sorry.

It's a habit.

Try it.

I know why you're here.

But don't worry.

My dad is working hard

in the Philippines.

We'll soon be able to pay

you back in full, ma'am.

You trust him?

Your dad?

Of course I do.

He's my dad.

- What if he ditches you?

- That's nonsense.

He's not that kind

of a person.

Avoid touching this...

What the f***?

I was just...

Mom

Yes.

Did you get it?

No, he wasn't home.

I see.

I'll go back tomorrow.

Ssong is making trouble.

Go get her.

Money can be very terrible.

Please stop her!

U-young!

I was giving these b*tches

a few lessons.

They're drinking Dom Perignon

but won't pay back.

Whores, having fun with what

you earned with your bodies?

After you're all used up,

you'll be sold off to Japan.

In the end,

you'll be sucking it

for almost nothing

in another country.

Slutty b*tch.

Useless b*tches...

My mom would've killed you.

Satisfied?

That's my girl...

u-young!

Long time no see.

How have you been?

- I told you not to sell it to her.

- Hurting my customers...

Then why did you...

I was speaking.

I've left Mom,

but still, for her sake

I'm good to you.

I didn't force Ssong

to stick in the needle.

She asked for it, first.

Is this enough

for the crack?

You crazy b*tch!

Inn-

said...

I was speaking...

- Didn't I?

- I'm warning you.

If you give her crack

one more time,

I'll kill you then.

Brother...

ll-young.

Don't push it.

You might get

f***ed up one day.

- What's wrong with her?

- Nothing's wrong.

- You promised to quit.

- Damn it!

I will!

So shut the f*** up.

Why live like that?

Bullshit, a**hole...

F***ing bastard...

Hello, ma'am.

Did you call?

Good evening.

Did you make a reservation?

She's my guest!

- Your girlfriend?

- No.

I have one table left.

Could you wait for a moment?

Please give her a seat.

Hey!

Have a seat over there.
