You bastard!!

Sh*t! | You hit me!

Bro!

You've changed, man!

Sh*t!

Hanjoo. | You going somewhere?

To shoot a typhoon.

The typhoon

that formed to the south

is fast moving in- land...

What are you doing here?

Just came to see you.

Crazy fool.

No one comes here on a rainy day | but you...

What's the punk doing? | Is he okay?

Who the hell are you anyway?

Enough with the nagging...On and on... | It's been 1 0 years!

Hey!

You remember the first time | you rode with me?

When I was hurt huffing...

This big tall guy | comes up to help me.

He couldn't skate | worth a damn...

I just liked it.

That there was someone

who understood | when I got hurt.

I just liked it.

But, you know...

I'm scared of | getting hurt now.

Really | f***in scared.

Don't act like | you're not hurting.

You think I don't know....

You're just hiding it.

Why is it that what we like, | has to hurt so much...

and leave so many scars?

Bro!

Get out of my house.

Probably come for | them someday.

Sir! | Where did you find them?

- I don't know what to do with it.... | - You do your job right and see.

- lsn't that the punk? | - That's him.

Sir!

I'm sorry. | I'm really sorry.

Is that the way to | apologize?

I'm asking cause | I really don't know...

How am I supposed | to apologize?

- Want me to kneel down? | - You can, for starters!

I don't know if my apology | will solve everything....

But I'm really sorry.

Forget it. Just go.

Did you do it?

I got my papers.

I'm going into the army. | Not accepting visitors.

Just know that I skated | that day for you.

But it's my fault for | not being patient to the end.

Eat up so we can hand this out | to the crowd. Got it?

Do we really have to do this? | We're skaters.

Let's get some food first!

A flexible leader | wins the battle.

An unbending tree | is bound to break.

- Let's go! | - Stop mumbling junk, will ya?

Bro, give me some.

I'll pass em around.

- Let's get going! | - Soyo! You can do mine, too!

No prob. | Let's get started.

Hello. | Here, take this.

What's up with him? | Doing whatever we tell him?

You won't get no gold, | silver, or money doing that!

We have to do it. | Try to enjoy it, like me.

Enjoy. Enjoy. Enjoy.

Enjoy! Enjoy! | In the power of love!

Let's enjoy this!

He's gone weird | after he hit his head.

Let's just do it! | It ain't hard!

Get him some pills!

Let's roll!

What you're all watching... | This high jump is called the Air.

The skaters put a lot of time and effort | into perfecting that one.

Give our skaters | a hand here!

Now, what you're seeing here is | aggressive in-line skating!

It's an attack! Powerful! | But it ain't a real attack, folks.

Okay, todays highlight! | Now for our skaters' own style showdown.

No rules, no bounds! | Give them a hand!

- Soyos really got it, man. | - I'm good aren't l?

- Man, you think you're all that, huh? | - Let him.

- Be seeing ya. | - Be careful!

The most in showmanship, | our frosh! Go!

Pass the box jump, | with the quarter 720!

Oh...and he misses! | Looks like he's in pain, folks.

You okay?

The pain! | The leg pain!

Not sure if he's asking for another chance. | Or giving me the finger.

- We'll put him back on! | - When did he land that?

- Stay calm... | - You go man!

- Let's go! | - Go get'em! Go!

The youngest with his second start! | Doing the Quarter 720!

The frosh needs to brush up | on his skills.

Everyone, | give him a big hand.

Do it again?

Should we give him | another chance?

No way! | Just go back up.

Good job.

You did good job. | Aroo! Show'em what ya got!

- So cool! Awesome! | - I know, man!

I'm curious | what this skater will do.

- Ah, man. | - What's he up to now?

Will he try diving it?

- Puttin on a show... | - You're always after the crowd.

- Try doing something new. | - You do it, if you're so good.

Let's go!

Let's all go!

Our skaters are up to something. | They're all coming down.

One, two, three, four.... | Now, please sit down skaters.

I said, | sit down.

The four, | acting like power rangers!

We need a fifth member | for the rangers.

Will the frosh come to | join his crew?

Hey, Soyo! Come here!

Give them a hand!

Do it!

You can do it, Bro!

And now for the jump.

Mission success! Good!

Let's hear it | for our fabulous skaters!

And thank you all for | sticking around.

We hope to see you again | next time!

Thank you.

What a show!

I don't think | I've ever lived so busy.

We rode f***in' hard | all summer, huh?

- Wanna go for a drink after this? | - Are you buying?

- Sh*t, I'm lonely. | - If you're lonely, what about me?

That's why I'm lonelier.

I don't have to be lonely | but I am.

What do you think of | when you hear the rain?

Just that | we can't skate today.

But also thinking that | it's not so bad.

You said it.

Sh*t, I don't know | how I feel sometimes.

- Do you? | - How did we ever end up here?

We took the subway.

You little smart ass.... | What's with you?

What?

I wish the world was | as safe as it is here.

Having someone like you | watch over me.

You know why I wanna enter | the games so badly?

Three years ago, | I went to my first Worlds.

I was really nervous.

So scared that | I couldn't see anything.

The crowd all staring at me. | My body got stiff....

The punk was much better than me. | So he was the one that entered.

I really wanted him to do his best.

For me, too.

He had more | than enough skills.

But...

the punk... | didn't even budge.

He just smiled | and came back down.

Know what he said?

What the heck was that?

I got scared.

It wasn't any fun.

From now on....

I'll ride only | when I want to.

You look like a coward!

Is that a bad thing?

Hey! Bro!

Are you going somewhere? | Where are you going?

Vacation.

See you in two years.?

It's all you, now.

I had my bros | in front of me.

I could see their backs.... | All I had to do was follow them.

But now, | I can't see their backs before me.

I wonder | where they all are now....

As I learned to skate....

I liked that | I became a guy with a goal.

By doing what I like... | I want to make my own future.

I just like it. When I ride, | that's all I think about.

Honestly, I'm tired... | I don 't see a future anymore.

Go with your guts and go!

Ride like there 's no tomorrow! | Till the day we get old and croak!

To the end!

It will be sore for a few days. | How did you hurt it?

In-line skating.

Stop your boyfriend | from skating.

Yes.

How's he doing?

Don't know.

They seem kind of | off balance.

You'll find your balance soon.

There are people | who never wear casts, right?

Living their whole | lives safely.

Sign it again, | just once.

Goodbye

- I'm going back to where I belong. | - Where's that?

We'll... | I don't know where....

Don't leave | just because he did.

You think if we loved | a thousand times,

we'd see a thousand | different worlds?

I had nothing to do | so I went back to school.

Nothing had changed.e

ifl just kept quiet | and wasn't late....
