That's all Sunhwa and I ever had

Sunhwa and you?

Every day liquor and chicken

It's not very important...

But there's stuff you don't know

What?

When you left for the USA

Sunhwa suffered a great deal

She did?

Everyone blamed you

For dumping her so cruelly

That's all crap spread by a**holes!

F***ing morons!

- Know what she told me?

- What?

That you're the worst kind of animal

She told me that one day

Here you are!

- Been waiting long?

- You've come!

- You're here!

- Shall we go? Come on

Where? You just got here

Have a drink

I'm tired, I'm happy to see you

but let's get out of here

Are you tired?

Get up, I'm tired

I hate the smell of chicken

Really?

Let's go, then

- How much do we owe?

- Just a second

Raw squid

three bottles of rice liquor

four beers, chicken...

You really went there

this morning?

Yes, I woke up way too early

Why did you photograph this?

Because that's the place

where I treated you so badly

I wanted to go back

confront the past

and see that place again

So you admit it?

I treated you badly

So you took these photos?

To show them to me?

Yep

It made me realize

how much I miss you

Munho helped me

The teashop hasn't changed

It has, a little...

It's the same outside

but the inside has changed

It looks the same

I've been back there too

Really?

I knew it before

but you're a funny man

Me? Funny?

Good

What's wrong with your tooth?

My tooth?

- It's chipped

- He's right

You have sharp eyes

You noticed it?

- How did that happen?

- Not so long ago...

That's my neighbor

She's a yoga instructor

You're here!

Here's my baby...

Come to mommy

Come here!

Isn't my baby beautiful?

Is she yours?

- My baby... Isn't she beautiful?

- She's big

You have to obey Mummy

- You peed in her house?

- Yes, I scolded her

- What's her name?

- Mary

- She's excited

- Mary...

- Mary, come here

- Be careful

- Mary

- Be good

She's excited

She's so dark black dog!

Mary, the black dog

Hey, that hurts

Let go

Sunhwa

Are you happy?

I have no idea

What does that mean?

It's been a while, you and me

You must be happy

You look good

Have you put on weight?

Did you bring Hunjoon here?

I was the one

who wanted to come

Why?

I don't know

It was snowing and...

that made me sentimental

Stop it

- Sunhwa

- What?

I'll buy some food

There's nothing left here

Are you going alone?

Hunjoon is drunk

- Hunjoon, are you okay?

- I'm okay

Put him to bed I won't be long

Stop drinking!

Yeah

What are you trying to prove?

Give me that

Burn me

Burn me!

Burn me!

Somebody burn me!

Burn me! Burn me!

You want me to do it?

You know how I waited for you?

Do you have any idea

how I waited?

You waited for me?

Is that true?

Are you awake?

Give me a minute

Did I wake you?

Will you suck me off?

That felt so good

Thank you

You like the way it feels?

Yes

It's my tooth

You're awake?

You're already up

- What's that?

- Do you like kimchi stew?

I've added some tuna to it

My favorite dish!

How did you know?

Is that so?

I don't remember

You're up?

I'm making stew

Give me some water

Are you hung over?

Me too

Is this really you?

Mary, come and eat

It's cold today

It's warmer than yesterday

- Kick the ball

- Can you kick it?

Sir! What a surprise!

- What are you doing?

- Playing soccer

What brings you here?

They're all on the stands

- What are you here for?

- I'm here with friends

- Are they my students?

- Yes

my son's birthday

- They came with me

- Is that so?

I have to go

Quite a crowd

Excuse me, I have to go

- Yep

- I don't need it

I pinched it for you

Why are you staying here, sir?

Go with them

Shall I send them over?

No, it's okay, I'm fine

Go and play I'll see them later

Okay

- You took your time

- Why are you alone?

Sir, you're very elegant

I have to go

My friends are waiting

- Come on!

- Come and sit down

- All right

- Sir, sit here

- Thank You

- Thank you

- What brings you here?

- I had to come here yesterday

- What?

You saw my friends earlier?

No

They wanted to return to their past

I helped them

Do you have a problem?

No, If you're here

everything's fine

- Do I sound stupid?

- Not at all

You're the most intelligent person

I know

Really? You flatter me

- Sir, put this on

- Keep it

I'm not cold

For a second, then

It smells nice

Very nice

Really very nice

Sir, come on

they've already left

- Is it over?

- Yes

The cold made them hungry

They've left, Forgive them

Kim Wook! What are you doing?

Our teacher's here

Come with us

What about your friends?

I won't bother waiting

Are you eating now?

Yes, to start with

I'll come with you, then

- Hello

- Are you well?

- Yeah

- Hi

Hello

We took too long

Isn't that his bottle?

He has left

He must have been angry

Does he have a reason to wait?

What's the matter with you?

Why are you being so mean?

I'm being mean?

Okay, I'll go

See you later

Hunjoon! Hunjoon!

Isn't that a bit easy?

It's not easy

You treated me badly

I didn't sleep, not a wink!

- Hunjoon!

- Stop it!

You should do that

- Can you read palms?

- When I drink, it happens

A fortune-teller told me

I had to obey men

Really?

People read palms their own way

According to who they are

and the lines change...

Who hasn't answered?

Your turn, Kyunghee

Here's my question

It's always the same

The last time you had sex

when was that?

Who with?

What was it like?

Always the same questions

- What?

- I'm not criticizing you

- Ask something else

- Answer, now that I've asked

It was two days ago

I had been drinking

He really seemed to want it

I followed him

I didn't feel much

The place was pretty filthy

I envy him

Drink up and ask a question

You're being pretty coarse

So what are you?

You're not coarse?

You're classy?

What does that mean?

I just wanted to say

that you're being coarse

not that I'm classy

What does classy mean?

I'm classy

A**hole!

You think you're classy

with your borrowed ideas?

Have you read a lot?

The books you've read

are the remains of the dead

They're their self-justification

Their self-promotion!

At least know

what you're talking about!

What do you know?

What do we know?

What are we sure of?

Sh*t, why act so smart?

F***ing admit you know nothing!

You think you're the only one

who thinks that?

What?

I'm not saying that

How can you believe in nothing?

Believing in nothing

is nothing to be proud of!

Is there another way to be happy?

How do you think

we can be happy?

Sir! Why are you so pompous
