JINSAM IS LOST REWARD $500

How can a dog cost $500?

JINSAM IS LOST REWARD $500

It says he guarded the President.

It says he guarded the President.

It's exactly $500.

It's a God-given chance.

We have to find this dog.

But how do we find him?

We have to try everything.

Okay, for $500. We'll try everything.

We can start with the dog's neighborhood.

It's not like dogs can fly,

how far can they go?

We should call and see

if he'll really pay $500.

I'm calling about Jinsam,

the President's guard dog.

Will you really pay $500 to find him?

You won't subtract taxes, right?

What?!

You found him?!

He was in your front yard?!

Just how big is your front yard?

You should've looked for him there first!

Why? I am in primary school.

Can't primary students nitpick too?

REWARD $500

Can't primary students nitpick too?

REWARD $500

REWARD $500

Do you know how disappointed we are?!

Do you know how disappointed we are?!

So steep...

TOWED VEHICLE LO TOWED VEHICLE LO There's towing and parking fees,

There's towing and parking fees,

and the fine is due within 15 days.

- Towing and parking?

- Yes.

I'm a bit short on cash,

can't I get a discount?

No credit card?

Can I use your phone for a moment?

No cell phone either?

We're homeless, how can

we afford a cell phone!

Stop that, it's irritating!

We were just here.

How long are we going to circle?

Is it my fault that we got nowhere to go?

So let's just go to auntie's.

I'm really tired, so don't annoy me.

If we go there, you have to transfer too!

So transfer, it's no big deal.

Better than living like homeless.

Where did you get that stubbornness?!

Feels nice to say anything you want?!

Even if we live in a car,

you must attend a good school!

You just do what I tell you!

Who's the stubborn one? Tell me, who?!

I think you're both stubborn.

Do you know what's coming up next month?

Sports Day, thought I'd forget?

Seriously.

Where you going?!

Hey!

Get back in here!

Hey.

So you'll have your party at your house?

Yes...

Do you live better than us?

Bigger house?

Min-sup, don't even compare.

Compare to hers, yours is a dog house.

- Really?

- Min-sup.

$500 PER SQUARE METER

REWARD $500

Let's steal a dog.

- Steal what?

- Steal a $500 dog.

We'll steal it and return it.

We will just take the reward money.

What?

You steal a dog?

You shut up!

- Don't be late!

- Okay!

Do you have a plan?

We must find a dog first.

Aren't we doing a bad thing?

So we should only do it once.

You can't live without doing bad things.

THE PERFECT PLAN TO STEAL A DOG

1. Don't steal from a super rich family.

Why?

They can just buy a new one.

Only somewhat rich family

will be sad to lose a dog.

2. No children's dog.

3. Steal from people we

wouldn't feel sorry.

4. Decent size to run with.

He mustn't bark too much,

and not bite either.

5. President's dogs or

guard dogs are too loud.

What?

Do we have to keep him around?

He's the 3rd generation only son.

Have to keep him around.

He's too stupid to be any help.

People with 'suk' in the

name are super stupid.

Come on, that's not true.

That's what my mom said.

Sometimes, she's right.

Does you dad's name end with 'suk'?

Yeah.

3rd generation only son?

Look how fat he is. Soaked in happiness.

Can we carry him?

Maybe for a moment.

Where'll you keep him after stealing him?

They'll fit in our bag.

The owner wouldn't care

if one of them disappeared.

If we steal it, we gotta feed it.

Got money for dog food?

What are you kids doing there?

Your puppies are really cute. Sorry!

There are cameras everywhere now.

What about those?

Take this, and go to mom's restaurant.

What's with you?!

It's not like you need

skill to carry dishes.

I haven't been sleeping well lately.

I'll clean it up.

You got a knack for doing a bad job.

Really?

You can't keep bringing your kids here!

Ji-suk!!

Maybe it's my punch out time.

'Punch out'? You still got 3 hours left!

Then I'll give him some

food and send him away.

Let's eat ice cream!

Choco or strawberry?

Did you eat?

Let's get some waffles too.

Aunt...

Good afternoon, madam.

I heard PARK found YOON's final piece.

Yes, it'll be auctioned off this month.

Very good. Get it and put it in my room.

Yes, ma'am.

Oh yeah, Mr. PARK mentioned your will...

What does he mean...

Something's odd, why does it feel so weird?

Should we change the interior design?

Forget it.

Let's drink water.

Wait.

Tell PARK not to worry

because it's the last time.

How can an asset manager tremble

over a painting's price tag?

But it's in the hundreds and thousands...

There's just one more, then it's over.

How about what PARK proposed last time?

Rebuilding this place.

A skyscraper here would

multiply the profit...

- Su-young.

- Yes?

Do you know why dog's better than men?

They don't talk, not a word.

Tell him I'll contact him

when the will is done.

You'll... finally complete it?

What's with you? Move aside!

So weird...

I understand, madam.

That dog belongs to

very rich family, right?

Yeah, and my mom works there.

Really?

Wanna have ice cream there?

Can we really?

Mom doesn't get paid much,

so we eat there often.

You'll get $500,000 to work with.

You can proceed with that.

I told you already.

Measly $500..

Why do you make me repeat myself?

Fine.

Why aren't we going?

Where's your mom?

What the heck are you doing?!

I'm sorry, just this once.

Are you nuts? Why bathe him here?!

Then could you?

Help me out for one more day.

I won't bring him from tomorrow on.

We barely get 10 people a day,

it's not like your hands are full.

There're more employees than customers.

- Don't be so stern.

- Am I the boss here?

If it wasn't for my aunt, I wouldn't be.

I hear she's using this place

to meet people, not for business.

Don't be so stern for eating

leftovers and using water.

Not a shred of humanity, despite

doing charity on the side.

If you can't say that to my aunt,

then don't say it to my face!

I don't know if I'm working,

or being a housewife.

You see how impossible she is?

No wonder her husband left her,

and her only son left home and died.

If I wasn't the only one to

inherit Marcel, I'd have left...

So righteous.

You got it all wrong.

- Go apologize!

- I'm so sorry, madam!

- She's a friend...

- Kick her out.

I'm really sorry, I truly am...

Aunt!

Honestly, I don't think I'm

cut out for service work.

This is good!

I missed out on so many things

while raising you two.

I'll now look for my true calling.

Oh yeah!

I got plenty of severance,

should we go to a hotel?

Should we?

A man named Aesop showed up

in my dreams recently.

He wanted to tell me

'the Hares and the Frogs'.

I said I didn't want to

hear the stupid tale.

It's only fair when a hare is

compared to another hare.

In the end, Aesop apologized to me.

He said I was the most pitiful one,

not the hares nor the frogs.

He wouldn't have written

the story if he met me.

Other kids will never know,
