Isn't that right?

But Young-tak, you have a home,

sister and even a niece,

why do you live like a homeless?

What are you keep writing?

A 'Thank You' diary.

Son of a b*tch!

Uh, I'm sorry.

Why are you writing it?

Everyday I write 3 things that

I'm thankful for.

You should try it.

Sure.

I too have so many things

that I'm thankful for.

Overworked, and meeting new people,

and becoming close

with a homeless like you.

- Crazy bastard...

- How could I not be thankful?

Right? And because of the stress

from this thing, I lost 5kg.

But why are you following me?

I'm not following,

you're just moving around so much.

Go.

I wanted to kill myself a lot,

people looked at me like a nutcase.

Sure, I had assumed as much.

It must have been so difficult,

that's what I thought.

I knew you'd go through

at least one or two difficult situations.

I wasn't prying,

but I couldn't help but notice

the cut marks on your wrist,

you must've tried to take your own life,

isn't that right?

I'm not crazy,

it's a little inconvenient.

Of course, I understand you.

I know how you feel completely.

- Ah, Byeong-wu.

- Yeah?

- I wanted to ask you...

- Yeah, what?

How big is the claim when I die?

Young-tak. Hypothetically,

strictly hypothetically,

are you asking

if insurance will pay

even if you willfully

take your own life,

is that the question?

Did I get that right?

Yes.

That's what you were curious?

Yes, I wanted to know.

Whether there'd be some money

if you committed suicide?

Yeah, will it be a lot?

Forget it, you bastard.

What a cheeky...

Hey, Young-tak.

Yes?

Oh, the record button was pressed.

I got a recording of you asking about

intentionally killing yourself

to get the insurance money.

I got you asking just that.

If you commit suicide,

there's nothing.

Not a thing,

so don't ever think about dying.

Take care.

Look, you bastard.

Can't you see these young folks?

Live hard,

run a business or something.

Go to the market

and get some merchandize

and sell them on the streets.

Live straight, and don't swear,

you sh*t.

Thank you, Byeong-wu!

Pay it back!

B*tch!

That bastard...

Sang-chul quit.

And because of that,

I want you to take these over.

What are you talking about?

I'm done here once I sort this out.

Take over my ass.

Even if you quit,

do the work while you're here.

Please do this for me.

Take this...

Look here.

You never asked for my opinion,

and you b*tch and

moan on your own.

Watch your mouth!

Anyway, just do it,

for once do what I tell you.

You prick.

Oh Sang-yul

Dammit!

I am 'loneliness',

I am the drifting cloud

I am the aimless boat

on endless sea

You are 'longing',

You are solitary lighthouse

You are the single star

in the vast night sky

I want to love but

you want nothing back

It hurts me so much

Okay, that's enough.

Thank you for coming, next.

Could I try once more?

No, I think we heard enough.

Why... do you want to be a singer?

To make money.

Next.

And you sister?

Should've called when you've moved.

Kid, can you play guitar?

Idiot, I'll teach you.

Gimped bastard...

If you're going to

pick up chicks later,

you need to play guitar and sh*t.

Watch.

Like the wind...

I quit.

Take it when given.

Aren't you sick of running away?

How can we overcome

this predicament?

Give me a little more time.

There's plenty of time.

But never any money.

How old are you, So-yun?

Answer when asked.

Why waste such wonderful youth?

At your age you could

earn 30 grand in one month.

Give him a call.

I'll pay you back soon.

Embarrassed about selling your body?

But not about

paying back the money?

Is there anything

other than whoring?

Decide quickly.

My patience is running out.

Madame, could you give me

a pack of smokes?

Sure, sure.

Thank you.

Take this.

What the heck is this?

I don't have any change.

No change?

Then I have a credit card.

Take it!

How do you run a store

without any change?

Grab a big bottle of water.

Give me a red ginseng drink

if you're gonna give me something.

Here, energize yourself.

Red ginseng my ass.

I'm gonna grab some popsicles!

Hey!

What are you kids doing here?

- Selling herbs.

- They're $3.

Why sell them here?

To help out mom.

Where did you get them?

There are tons in the mountain.

$2.50!

Does your mom know about this?

Get rid of it, quick.

She's not due back for a while.

We have to sell more.

Oh, hello Mrs. Choi!

Ma'am, please calm down.

I used to do stupid stuff like this

all the time as a kid.

Why are you keep coming around

to mess with our affairs?

Ma'am it's not that...

Turn around!

Haven't I told you not to do it again?

Ma'am, I'll come back next time.

Answer me!

I'm sorry!

Why do you keep coming here?

Do I come here because I want to?

Jin-hee, come in here.

I'm so sick of this!

Get back in here!

You have to calm her down.

Where are you going?

Being poor pisses you off,

and makes you sad, right?

Even though it wasn't your choice?

Mind your own business.

You'll regret if your mom dies,

so be nice.

What would you know?

Will you stop barking back

to everything I say?

Look.

Look at this coin, look, look!

Would it spin forever, like this?

Living a life is all the same.

It has nothing to do with you.

Hey, you'll be in big trouble

if your mom dies.

Same for me too.

Alright. Let's do it.

Hey, Mr. Kim!

This is all you can do with the money

I gave you to start something?

How much is it?

How much did you get them for?

Stop fooling around.

How many have you sold today?

One.

Jesus... You'll become rich quickly.

Any day now.

Not a shred of business mind.

Who buys these things when

we all have alarms on our cells?

But this is neon.

Son of a b*tch!

Can't you suppress

the tic even a little?

Ah, is that to help you

suppress profanity?

You'll sell out because it's neon.

You'll be rich!

Oh, you're home?

Give me $100.

Where do you need

that kind of money?

I just need it.

At least tell me

why you need it so I can decide.

I just need it!

Why do you always talk like

that to your mom?

Sh*t, forget it!

What the heck am I doing?

Do you think it's easy for me

to come all the way up here?

You really are a nuisance.

What is it?

I have a favor.

I'm the one with a favor.

What?

Lend me $100 if you have it.

Lend you?

And you're gonna pay it back?

I'll earn it and pay it back!

For what?

To buy a tent.

Tent?

Are you going to leave home?

My class' going camping and

I'm in charge of the tent.

You should've said you didn't have it,

why be responsible for it?

It's embarrassing!

You know what embarrassing is?

It's embarrassing when you don't

change to a retirement plan.

Mister, let's get spicy rice cake!

But you already had some noodles!

We're starving again!

Starving? You ate noodles

like there's no tomorrow

just around the corner!

- Blood sausage for me!

- Dumplings!

Let's go!

Mister!

What, are you done?

Can we have fish cakes?

Sure, eat everything while at it.
