Ask for one more.

Sir, please.

Sir, please help me.

What is he, a retard?

Look.

What's so funny?

It's funny.

Grown adults acting like kids.

A mom having fun with

her son she met in 30 years.

- That's funny?

- Ma'am!

Crazy b*tch!

What?

Let's go!

I'm sorry. Apologize!

I'm sorry.

Get back!

Devilish bastard!

I never once forgot you!

See?

I can't do a thing as a cripple!

I'm a bum!

Now, it's your turn to die!

Get down!

Kneel!

Mom didn't do anything!

Mom, my ass!

You insulted me in front of

my mom forjust $3,000!

Watch closely.

I told you you'd burn to death!

Pour it on! Now!

Forgive him. It's my fault.

I abandoned him.

He grew up without love.

Bullshit!

The bastard was born evil.

He's the devil who tests

people with money!

Pour it on! Now!

Son of a b*tch.

Kang-do! No!

- No!

- Don't move!

I'll light it for ya!

Kang-do!

Stop.

Stop.

Stop.

He probably didn't die.

Or report it to the cops.

I'm scared.

That you'll suddenly vanish.

I can't survive being

alone again.

Today's your birthday.

Go buy a cake.

Let's celebrate.

So, this was my birthday

present?

It looks a little small for me.

Why?

It's not done yet?

Boss, it's Lee Kang-do.

Why you!

You son of a b*tch!

I'm sorry, boss!

I'm sorry, boss!

You ungrateful bastard.

Get lost!

Someone else is doing it.

Boss!

Please give my mom back!

You have a mother?

That's why you quit?

Scared of revenge?

It's not me.

It's probably one of

the cripples you made.

I told you to collect money,

not make 'em cripples!

You butcher!

Where were you?

Know how much I worried!

Why didn't you take your phone!

I'm sorry.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

I have a favor.

Plant me a tree.

Where's the sweater?

I wanna wear it today.

Can a pine tree live

by the water?

It'll live.

Thanks.

When I die, bury me here.

What?

Don't say stuff like that!

Everyone dies.

But still...

It's not for a long time.

Go to your bed!

Get out!

Did I do something wrong?

Go water the tree.

It'll wither to death.

Okay.

Hello?

Kang-do! Someone's here!

- Mom?

- Why're you doing this!

Mom!

Stop it!

No! Please! No!

Help me! Help me!

Who the f*** are you!

Why are you doing this!

Mom?

It's my fault!

Not my son's! Please!

Mom!

Mom!

Yes, Han's Machinery.

Yes, of course we can do it.

The price of copper went up.

Then, I'll do it for 30 .

That's it.

Hello? Hello?

Son of a b*tch!

Take the skin off my back

why don't ya!

Damn bastard!

Damn sons of b*tches!

Greedy bastards!

Sons of b*tches!

Damn bastards!

I'll kill you! Bastard!

I'll rip you to shreds!

You bastard!

Looking for Jong-do?

He quit and went to

Yang-pyung.

Where's your son?

Where's Lee Jong-do!

Jong-do.

Your friend's here.

How nice there's a friend

who still remembers you.

You must be so happy.

Don't you ever die

cuz of money.

Damn money!

How can you leave me behind

over losing an arm?

After everything I did

to raise you.

Damn bastard!

That bastard...

Where's your dad! Tell me!

What'd you do yesterday?

Thought of you, fool.

So?

Never once forgot you

doing this to me for $10,000.

So, what did you do!

Getting revenge!

Tell the truth!

Stabbing you!

Burning you!

Sinking you!

Ripping you to shreds!

That's not enough!

If you had parents,

I'd take 'em as you watch and...

But it's no use.

A cripple like me.

All I can do is hope

you rot in hell.

Just you wait.

I remind my kid what you did

every single day!

When mommy goes to the island

to pick oysters

the baby is left alone

to watch the house

Ebb and flow of tidal waves

sounds like a lullaby

With his elbow as a pillow

the baby falls asleep

Thank you.

I led a foolish life.

So, I cannot see

as much as others.

That is enough.

It's $3 for a bag.

What would you like?

Rice puffs again?

You b*tch!

What bastard did you

go and f***!

Shut up

if you don't wanna starve.

We're living like this

cuz you borrowed that money.

What? I didn't do it

just for me.

B*tch! It's all your fault!

Get lost, you b*tch!

If you doubt me so much,

you go and make money!

You b*tch!

Sh*t!

Where's my mom?

The hell! You had a mom?

Then, why the act!

Cuz I'm scared.

I can't even move! See!

Wait!

Beer money?

Don't need it!

The devil's money!

If there was no law,

I'd kill you a hundred times!

You piece of sh*t!

Wish I can grind you

with my car!

I got $40! Sh*t.

Retard!

$5,000 BECAME $50,000.

I'LL BECOME A CRIPPLE TODAY

WHAT IS MONEY? LIFE? DEATH?

I'M SORRY MOM

Why'd you do it?

Why were you so cruel?

I cannot forgive you.

You're a devil who tests

people with money.

Now, you feel the heartache

as them.

Watch your family die

before your very eyes!

No use crying now.

Pathetic fool.

Devilish bastard!

What is it?

The hell!

The f***!

Mom?

Mom!

You b*tch!

Mom!

Mom!

Get lost, b*tch!

Mom!

Sang-go?

You waited long, right?

The fool's soul will die now.

When I die before his eyes...

he'll be in dire pain

over losing his family.

He'll go crazy.

But...

Why am I so sad?

Sang-go! I'm sorry.

I didn't intend to feel this.

But I feel sorry for him.

Poor Kang-do!

Mom! where are you?

Mom!

Mom!

Kang-do!

Don't come up!

Please don't kill me!

No! You son of a b*tch!

Let Mom go!

What do you want!

Mom didn't do anything!

Kill me instead!

Kang-do! I'm scared!

Forgive me! Please!

Don't kill me!

Kang-do! I'm scared!

No! Mom! No!

I was wrong!

I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

I'll die instead!

Let Mom go! Please!

I'll die! Mom is innocent!

Kill me! I'm sorry!

Kill me, please!

Let Mom go! Please!

I'm so sorry!

Please don't kill Mom!

Please forgive me.

She didn't do anything.

It's my fault.

Forgive me.

And please let my...

Please let my mom go.

Kill me.

Please let her go.

Please don't harm her.

I'm sorry.

I am to blame.

Please don't kill her.

Sang-go?

You're not alone anymore.
