Nobody better break it up.

A real man can never be

shy about anything.

Having guts will

get you through life.

-Having what?

-Guts!

That's right, my boy.

Guts.

Like a badass spirit.

-What kind of spirit?

-Badass spirit!

That's right.

From now on,

you do what I say.

-First, I want you to sing!

-Huh?

You don't know any songs?

A nursery rhyme or something.

I don't know any.

Come on, you rascal!

Just sing anything!

-Pororo.

-What the hell is that?

A cartoon.

All right. Animation, I like that.

Let's hear it.

One, two, three, four.

Playtime is the best time.

-Gather up your friends.

-Louder!

It's always

so much fun.

Trickster, Pororo.

Louder!

-Mommy!

-All right, now I told you, Mommy's busy.

-Are you happy now?

-Thank you, Mom.

Help!

Boy, I feel dizzy.

Help!

Somebody!

Hold tight!

Help!

-Help!

-Let go!

Let go of me!

You're crazy! What are you doing?

Don't! Stop! Stop!

Because you kept grabbing my head.

Who are you?

Yeon-hee!

Yeon-hee!

Yeon-hee!

-What's all this?

-There were some veggies left at the house.

-Where can I put this?

-I don't need this much.

-Just take it.

-Here.

Wait, I'll get you

something to drink.

-Was Seung-hyun here?

-Yeah.

What's that?

Did Seung-hyun draw that?

Looks like it.

Where is he anyway?

He was gone when I got back.

I thought he went home.

He didn't show up

at the house.

Then where did he go?

Hello.

The police station?

You'd better just tell us

straight, you scumbag.

I just tried to make

a little money on the side!

Do I look like a fraud?

Stop crying and tell

him the truth!

Hey. Is he really your uncle?

He said it was true.

He's my brother's son,

like I told you!

Seung-hyun!

Daddy!

Seung-hyun! Are you okay?

Who did this to you?

You son of a b*tch!

Come here!

I'm gonna kill you!

You wanna die?

Man-sik!

Guys, stop fighting!

My head, my head!

-Stop it!

-You can't do that here.

Kick his ass outside

if you want to.

How dare you

do this?

All I'm saying is that

he's a bastard!

I've known it since

we were young!

-Eat up!

-Okay.

Maybe it's because he's my boy...

but take a look at him!

Whenever he takes a test,

he always gets

a perfect score.

Just to make others feel better,

he should at least get one wrong.

He still needs to learn

his manners.

Learn some manners, okay?

Yeon-hee!

I'm starved!

-Uncle!

-Come inside.

-You finished this late?

-Yeah.

-Haven't eaten yet, have you?

-No, give me anything.

Hey.

Where was I again?

That I have

no manners.

That's right!

You've got no manners.

What do we call an

ill-mannered boy?

"You little scoundrel.”

Why don't you take it easy

with the alcohol?

Is that your son?

He's handsome.

Looks a lot like his mother.

She's not my mom.

She's my older sister

and he's my uncle!

My mom left us.

Doctor!

There's been another earthquake

on the sea bed.

-An earthquake on the sea floor!

-Where?

35 km off the west coast of Hokkaido.

-Intensity?

-3.6.

-Depth?

-An estimated 30 km.

Since it's quiet in Japan,

it's unlikely there'll be a tidal wave.

But something's strange.

What?

The epicentre's been moving toward us

since the beginning of this year.

-I'm sorry to bother you with this.

-No, it's okay.

I'll trust in you, Congressman Park.

I'll go ahead and do all that I can.

But don't think

that everything is settled just yet.

Sometimes things work out,

and sometimes they don't. Am I right?

Let's get going.

-You got everything together all right?

-Yes, I put it in the car trunk.

Crazy bastard!

''Some things don't work out''?

There'll be no approval for

the Haeundae Golden Beach, right?

If that's approved,

we're not going to just watch.

You should ask

the construction division about that.

Don't worry.

The ward head swore on his position.

And you believe that?

Choi Eok-jo's not a pushover.

I told you not to talk about that guy!

Bottle's empty.

Yeon-hee, bring some more drinks.

That's all there is.

Again? You need to run your business right.

-Keep some in stock.

-Shut up, you jerk!

I'll buy some and be back in a flash!

No, no, you stay here.

I'll go and borrow some.

Sit, sit.

Sit down, man!

Hey, isn't it about time

you two lived together?

It's easy to see, so stop denying it.

When her father died,

he left her under your care.

-Knock it off!

-Stop talking and just drink.

Why?

How could you say that

to someone who has a wife?

What do you mean, ''wife''? Sh*t!

It was just a one night stand.

She doesn't deserve it.

Even so, she gave him Seung-hyun!

So what? Right after his birth,

she ran off with his money.

Hey! I told you to stop!

Every time someone talks about his wife,

he gets defensive.

To be frank, your wife...

I said shut up!

Sit down.

What kind of grades does your son get?

Sit down, man!

My son's a moron, your son's a genius,

you must be f***ing proud.

Why are you being like this?

Stop acting weird!

You're having a grand old time here.

You! Give me back the plates

that you borrowed. I need them too.

I'll return them

as soon as these gentlemen leave.

What are you talking about?

Our place is full of customers.

I need them now!

You've got to have a sense of dignity

before doing business.

Mom, please. The chief is here.

She said she'll return them

as soon as we're done.

Crazy fool! Shut your mouth!

Got no place that'll serve you,

so you've crawled here?

Okay, I got it. Let's go.

Chief, let's move to the restaurant up there.

-I'm all right.

-Are you happy now?

Yeah, I am. You jerk!

-Sorry about that.

-It's too much.

-You serving dinner?

-Of course. Have a seat!

What's good here?

Pollock soup's fresh today.

Wanna try that?

Give me some of that.

And a plate of raw fish too.

Got it.

Don't make faces.

You aren't dying from eating here.

Of all the restaurants,

why does it have to be here?

-Light!

-Here.

Busan Galmaegi

What's wrong with you today?

Don't hold it all in,

just tell me what's going on.

I'll fix everything for you.

Is it because you're lonely at night?

What do you think of Man-sik?

Man-sik?

-Choi Man-sik?

-Yes.

-He's terrible.

-Why?

He leaves a bad impression.

And on top of that, his eyes slant.

And your eyes are that great?

Enough.

When he was younger,

he was really handsome.

Handsome? Can you see out of those eyes?

Are you insane?

Why do I have to come with you?

You've been eating on the house.

Now it's time to pay the price!

-Is this why you fed me?

-I told you I'm paying.

-Paying what? 10,000 won?

-Do you think money just grows on trees?

You're really out of your mind, aren't you?
