Miracle on 1st Street Page #3

Synopsis: 1st Street is a curious neighborhood untouched by the aids of modern living like proper plumbing and Internet. Pilje cruises into 1st Street with the intention to drive out its inhabitants and make way for a huge redevelopment project. As soon as he gets there, his plans start to unravel. He meets Myeongnan, a female boxer with the dream of becoming an East Asian boxing champion, and a host of colorful characters who turn his life upside down. Myeongnan works hard to attain her dream, training constantly and doing most of her talking with her fists. Myeongnan and Pilje clash, and he often finds himself on the receiving end of her ferocious punches. Instead of shunning the outsider, Myeongnan and the rest of the villagers warm to him. He is even thought of as Superman by the children of 1st Street after he enables the village's water supply and performs roof repairs. Pilje is drawn to these colorful misfits and begins to rethink his plans to destroy the zany town that they love.

It's me.

Could you bring me

I brought 300 meters with me

but it's not enough.

I'm at that slum called 1st Street.

It's a long story.

I don't know! He said he was

a reporter from KBS 9 o'Clock News.

No, KBS! Not MBC! KBS!

Dammit.

He was really talking down to me,

like he was important.

The joker said he's doing research!

Please get me that cable!

- Is he on the internet?

- Yeah.

That guy's amazing.

They said there was no internet here.

And our water supply got fixed

right after he came here.

Wow...!

I'll put you on a 3-year contract.

- 2 weeks!

- I'm sorry?

Two weeks, man!

If that's all you want,

you should go to an internet cafe.

Do you see any internet cafes

around here?

Could you please make

an initial payment of 50,000 won?

Why?

Well, Mr. Cho, you have

a bad credit rating.

So we need to take an initial payment

before opening your connection.

So poor people shouldn't use

the internet?

I don't make the rules, you know.

Who does, then? Maybe you

should call your boss out here!

Are these hard times for reporters?

My job is to pursue the truth.

I'll take this one.

That one only comes free

with a three-year contract.

That's outrageous!

It's a basic rule.

What? Basic rule?

More like misleading advertising.

Want to be on the news

for false advertising?

Am I wrong?

Ildong, will the tomatoes

really grow?

Are you a moron?

If you plant tomatoes, you'll get

tomatoes. It's common sense.

What does common sense mean?

Don't you even know?

Do you know?

No.

Dammit...

Hey!

Got some kimchi at your place?

Kimchi.

Just a little bit!

Did you make this?

This kimchi tastes of nothing,

Did you even put spices in it?

Have you got any noodles left?

Yeah.

How old are you?

You'll end up in hell

for what you're doing.

We're offering you

a lot of money to leave.

Wouldn't we both be happy

if we just did the deal?

There's never been

a way out of poverty.

You know why?

Poor people

just don't listen to anyone.

Worst thing is,

poor people

always stick to themselves.

There's no chance of progress.

Hey!

Ildong! None of them have grown.

Still a long time yet.

Shouldn't we water them?

Really? Just a bit, then.

How much?

- One cup.

- What size cup?

A gourd of water.

Isn't that too much?

Too much water might kill them.

It won't, you little brats.

You guys are full of suspicion.

Get me a cup of barley water!

We got none.

We got some mineral water.

Anything cold, you brat!

She into sports?

You mean Myeongnan?

That's her name?

What's her sport?

- Pugilism!

- Boxing?

Pugilism!

Myeongnan's father

was Asian champion.

- Dumbass! I need 100 boxes here.

- Yes boss.

Hey! Who's coming

to Chuncheon with me?

- Me...! Me! Me!

- Me!

Bunch of losers.

Dumbass.

Want to go to Chuncheon?

Is that okay?

Get these crates loaded then.

Dumbass,

how much you earn per day?

Guys get 30,000 and you 25,000?

Mean bastards.

Take this and call it a day.

Just take it!

Seonju, want to have

dinner with me?

What kind of woman do you like?

Me? A good, honest person.

Good and honest.

I like that. Good and...

Drink some cola!

I don't drink soda.

Do they have juice here?

Juice?

At a barbecue restaurant?

So drinking sewage is okay, but

not juice in a barbecue restaurant?

That's enough about sewage!

Seems like you're about to hit me.

Stop talking about sewage!

You like me, don't you?

What?

It's just too bad.

Mom said don't go near anyone

that's not a doctor or lawyer.

That stuff no longer applies!

You need a professional who's an expert.

No! Now is the era

of network marketing!

No, no. Wrong.

What's wrong?

Don't do things like that.

Things like what?

You're not really the type

for a pyramid scheme.

I told you, it's not like that.

It's all the same. You should know.

How many times do I have to say it?

It's network marketing!

You worked hard. Have a drink.

- I'm okay, thanks.

- Come on!

It'll stop you feeling tired.

Cheers!

Myeongnan...

Myeongnan!

Since we're out here,

let's try a local hot spring.

- A hot spring?

- Yeah.

I'm all right.

I'm okay. I just want to go back.

Come on girl. It's really good!

I don't want to. I'm going.

All right. Let's just

take a break for 30 minutes.

Let go of me.

Come on! You're not a kid!

Let me go!

Just stay still!

What do you think?

Since you came here,

water supply is fixed,

and we have internet connection.

They say you're like Superman.

- Superman?

- Yes.

Who told you?

Goddammit. I try so hard

to keep it a secret.

Now I've been found out again!

Keep this to yourselves!

Don't tell anyone about this.

- All right.

- Dammit, how the hell

can I hide my identity?

Go and wash that shirt.

Get rid of the smell.

Did Myeongnan sleep there

last night?

Yeah... why?

And she's changed clothes.

Just wash the goddam car!

You little brat!

Are you throwing out

this noodle box?

What box?

This noodle box.

Yeah. Help yourself.

Thank you.

Hey! Filthy beggars!

What did you say?

What did you just say?

I didn't say anything.

Say one more thing and

you're dead!

What are you crying about, girl?

Tell me if anyone makes fun of you.

I won't stand for it. Okay?

Let's go, girl.

Bring me a wet towel,

And some kind of disinfectant!

In such a state, boy?
