Angok Library
The Old Man and the Sea
Humans aren't defeated.
They may be destroyed
but aren't defeated.
That's it.
Let's live here.
Excuse me.
Miss.
Where's the real estate agency here?
Oh, I'm sorry.
So sorry.
Hey, you!
Spinster with the backpack!
Pass the ball!
- Me? - Who else then?
Pass the ball!
- Just pass it! - Hey.
- Pass it! - I'm not a spinster!
Daebeom!
Hey, Daeboem! Wake up!
Is your head okay?
- Wake up! - Are you okay?
I'm so sorry.
You witch! How are you?
- You witch! - What's this?
- Get the hell out of here! - Sorry!
I'm so sorry!
It's a map.
Never mind, I said.
If you see the punks, tell them my name.
Bae Seongmin who won bronze at the Youth Sports Festival.
- I'm leaving. - Hold on
- Hey, stop it - Here we go!
My legs.
- My legs! - Ouch!
Move.
Do you have superglue?
It's around the brushes.
Are you okay?
Be gentle, please.
That was rough.
It's been too long.
Listen to that.
I got carried away.
- Excuse me. - What?
The glue's $2.
It's not that.
Bom, where are you going?
All you have are craps.
That brat.
Why come in the first place?
Miss, it's $2.
Oh, that's right.
- Are you okay? - Here.
Thanks.
Off you go.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
Hey.
Busted.
Come here.
Brats! Play somewhere else!
You better not hit my car!
Go now!
No one's here, right?
How long am I stuck in Angok?
Why the hell won't they transfer me?
Daebeom, I was snubbed again.
They rejected me again.
I'm so pissed.
Why are they so mean to me?
I want to live in Seoul!
I hate Angok!
Screw this.
I'm so fed up.
All I got is the glue.
We'll see if all you got is glue.
What's this?
Why do you carry a blanket?
Are you a backpacker? What's this?
Seongmin.
Check her pockets.
Right. Miss.
- Let's me... - Hey!
What are you doing?
Let me see your pockets.
There's nothing.
That's weird.
I paid so much for the system.
Hey.
What's that?
Are you kidding me right now?
Why did you put it there?
I didn't put it there.
A 4B pencil?
Do I even sell it?
You shouldn't accuse an innocent customer.
Young people are so clever.
They even clean up and live in a place like this.
The landlady...
- Be careful. - Does it have electricity?
Well... What the heck?
How much's the rent?
It's $500, but I can lower it.
For a deposit of $20,000.
It's $200 a month for a deposit of $2,000 here.
I can lower the rent to $170.
I see.
Did you say the bathroom's outside?
It's under here and shared...
What is he scratching?
I'm sorry, Miss.
But I'm not okay with this place.
What a shame.
Miss.
This is my wife's idea.
I have another place for you.
What's it like?
It's hard to say. Let's just go ourselves.
It's this place.
- It's commercial. - Sorry?
Oh, yeah.
It's not even locked.
Let's go in.
This way.
Come on in.
This used to be the biggest billiard center here.
Look how spacious here.
You could play soccer.
When they built it,
they poured so much cement.
It's rock solid. I'll never collapse.
Yes, the rooftop.
Get up there when it's nice.
It's nice and warm.
The laundry dries in no time.
That's not all.
You can have the whole building to yourself.
The whole building?
That's right.
Does that mean no one lives here?
You could put it that way.
Is it too scary for a young lady?
How much is the monthly rent?
Rent? Do you like it?
So my wife was right.
I knew you'd be different.
Let me run to the landlord...
and finalize the rent.
Stay put, okay?
Sir...
Yeongho.
It's me.
Oh, hey.
I need to talk to you about something.
What's all that?
- What is it? - Yeongho.
I showed a few places to a young lady from Seoul.
Then I was reminded of you.
For what?
How about we show her the place?
What place?
Not the first floor. The billard center.
I agreed to sell it to Changsoo.
Also, it's not suitable for living.
By the way,
what is she like?
She seems very genuine.
But you never know once she hears the rumor.
Youngsters hiked up prices in other cities.
Rents, property and land prices all soared.
You know well.
You brat.
Why aren't you looking after the shop?
Gosh...
I was at Changsoo's.
What brought you here, Doohee?
I had to talk to your dad.
Seongmin. I can't sell the building to Changsoo.
Oh no!
Come on, dad.
Are you finally senile?
I just talked Changsoo into it.
He even organized the deposit to sign this week.
Yes, well said. He hasn't signed.
The owner still has the final say.
That's true.
- He has to sign to... - Come on!
Doohee made me realize that
I'd make a huge loss for that price.
Goodness, dad.
That has been vacant for years.
Forget it.
Go with Doohee.
To where?
Go and sign the lease!
I have to pick up a used fridge.
- You take care! - Dad!
What lease?
- Who is it? - Oh my!
- Who are you? - Sir?
- Honey, what's wrong? - Look.
Who the hell are you?
I came here to have a look.
- Who are you? - What?
- "Have a look?" - Hey!
- Changsoo! - Come on!
- Hey, Oksoon. - Seongmin!
You took a tenant after telling us to take measurements?
- I can't believe it. - Hey, look...
I just found out, too. Let's talk outside.
Just talk here.
- I have a customer... - A customer?
- You have nothing to worry about. - You!
Let's go outside.
- You can't be serious. - Trust me.
How can I trust at this rate?
- Are you okay? - Yeah.
You must be scared.
Let's go to a spot with lights.
She's so loud.
- Just go. - Don't push me!
- I'm helping you. - I'll look after myself.
Who is that woman?
What does he mean by a customer?
Is your dad selling it to her for a bit more?
Oksoon, she's trying to rent it.
Isn't it crazy? Don't worry.
Why didn't you ask our permission to lease it?
Don't you think it's absurd?
I didn't approve of this. I don't want to lease it.
It's my dad and Doohee who plotted.
- That's why... - Unbelievable.
Fine, I'll give dad a piece of my mind.
Changsoo, go to your shop with Oksoon.
I'll stop by after I set things straight.
Seongmin, don't mess it up.
Of course not! This is me we're talking about.
Don't kid yourself.
Get in.
- Jesus Christ. - It won't break.
Did I do something wrong?
Not at all.
They must have misunderstood.
You don't have to worry about them.
Doohee!
Hey, how did you egg on my dad this time?
Simmer down. I have a customer.
This is the landlord's son.
- Oh-oh! - You were at the shop...
Miss.
I can't talk for long since I used to be an athlete.
Do you even know what you're signing up for?
Cut it out.
It's been vacant for 20 years.
- Think about why. - 20 years?
Are you serious? Your dad already approved it.
- She's my tenant now. - What's going on?
It's nothing.
What do you mean?
A person died here.
What?
Can you live here? I can't.
Seongmin, are you serious?
The decision's up to you.
But nothing happened after that.
Doohee.
Look at her face. She's petrified.
We don't even have lights here.
Let's go.
- We might see a ghost. - Hey, you...
I'm going to tell on you!
Go ahead!
Let's be honest here.
You've got nice places. Why here?
- Are you scamming her? - Miss.
$50.
What?
The rent here is $50.
- What? - $50?
Why would I bring you to a good-for-nothing place?
Doohee, that's nonsense.
I talked to the landlord.
He'll only charge $50 if you look after this place.
- My dad will charge $50? - Sure.
Let me call him.
- Miss, don't fall for that. - $50...
For 12 months...
It's $600.
Miss, what you say?
Well, I...
I'll sign.
What?
- You made the right decision. - Hello!
- Dad, what's wrong... - Let me bless you with a prayer.
Dear God.
- This soul who nested here. - What?
- Dad! - Giver her blessing and glory.
- Hey, dad! - Amen.
- This is nuts! - Seongmin!
Let's go.
Wait, hold on. Miss.
Have you seen the toilet? It doesn't flush.
You can't even take a shower.
You can't live in this hostile environment. Think again.
Lee Yeoreum
I'm glad you like the place.
I see.
- Hey. - Now,
- wire $600 for the rent. - Oh, okay.
I wired it.
Check it.
What about your fee?
What fee? It's fine.
Just enjoy your stay.
Thank you.
Well...
Can I start staying there today?
Today?
- It has no lights, nothing. - It's okay.
The lease starts today, so...
As if you haven't done enough.
- Jesus Christ. - Seongmin.
Give her the key.
That's your key. Okay?
Honey, bring the thing I told you about.
Yes, hold on.
It has no lights.
Thank you.
Have a good life there.
- That brat. - See you.
- Bye. - See you.
Bye now.
Sorry...
Thank you for bringing the past up.
It would've been scarier if I found out later.
Forget it.
If something breaks, fix it yourself.
If you can't stand it, feel free to move out.
Got it?
Got it
I got a place.
After quitting my job without a plan,
I spent the whole two days on my bed.
I was scared.
I couldn't think of
anything I should do.
First, I decided to leave Seoul.
Since it's too expensive for a jobless like me here.
I tossed Jaedong's stuff I couldn't dare to.
And then...
I decided to just keep stuff that fits into my backpack.
After organizing,
I realized I bought many things.
I bought mugs because they were cute.
I had dishes I used once for the housewarming party.
I didn't even recognize some clothes.
Cheap shoes I habitually picked up at a mall.
I kept only one necessary item among them.
The competition was fiercer than a job interview.
I posted things I don't need online, which got sold instantly.
Goodbye.
My 12㎡ life.
Before this trip ends,
I wish I could find an answer.
About how I should lead my life.
So the sky's the local specialty here.
Welcome.
Hello?
How can I help?
How do I make the library card?
But we need your address.
I have one.
- Did you move here? - Yes, I did.
He'll assist you.
Sorry...
Were you okay yesterday?
I'm sorry.
Also, thank you for the map.
What was it?
You drew her a map?
Here.
Isn't this the billard center?
You live here?
- Yes. - Oh...
Thank you.
Library card
How can she live there?
Hi.
Excuse me.
Your bag's there.
It's not that.
Look, this is my seat. Don't sit here from now on.
Bom, keep it down.
Why is she yelling at me?
Excuse me.
Hello?
Can you see me outside for a second?
- And you are? - You'll see when you're here.
Who do you think you are...
Hello?
Bom!
You better talk outside.
That witch...
What is it?
I think our phones are swapped.
What?
Here.
Goodness!
We both don't have cases. It must have thrown us.
- Is that grandma? - Who? Me?
You can tell I'm in high school.
I mean your wallpaper.
Who told you that you can look?
- I'm sorry. - Don't be rude.
Hey, look!
What now?
Nothing.
Let's just eat.
Enjoy.
Where have you been?
What would you like?
Hello.
What do you want?
I'll have sundae soup.
One sundae soup!
- The order for table two! - Coming!
Enjoy your meal.
- One more soju, please. - Coming.
Are you drinking too much?
Bottoms up.
Yes, let's not worry about what others think here.
I'll do what I want.
Excuse me.
Excuse me!
One soju, please.
That's nice.
Hot and cold.
Who came up with this concept?
I feel like a grown-up.
Seil Restaurant
- Thanks, Oksoon. - Thanks for the meal.
I'll add it to your tab. See you.
I can't believe they didn't finish the fishcake.
As if she hasn't done enough.
Angok Library
My head...
Why am I here?
See you.
- Thank you. - Bye.
Ten hours ago
She's too young to drink so early.
Get the ball.
Where are you going?
Hey, come on.
- Boy 3: Look at her face! - Boy 2: Let's play!
- Rock, paper, scissors! - Be quiet!
Is she drunk?
Look, she fell!
What the heck?
- Look at her hair. - It's so messy.
Hey look!
What are you doing?
She's not a snake. She's Medusa.
She must be crazy.
She does look crazy.
I'm at the library.
What's wrong with her?
- But this is the library. - She's just drunk.
- Open your eyes. - Kids, get out of the way.
You can't show up here, drunk.
- I'm sorry. - Okay!
- Press it! - Come here.
Not in there!
Not there! Daebeom!
I have to go home.
I must be crazy.
I have to get home now.
What?
Why did I get drunk?
Three o'clock?
Hey!
There's a person here! Open the door!
Excuse me! Unbelievable.
My phone...
Don't come. Don't come too close!
Don't come!
It's you.
Thank you.
By the way,
why are you still here?
Don't say it's for me.
I'm sorry!
I hope you're awake now.
We'll have lights back tomorrow at 8:00 a.m.
And the door will open.
Rest somewhere cozy until then.
So he can't talk.
But...
Why didn't you wake me?
Daebeom, I'm leaving.
Tidy up before you go. Bye!
Seven hours ago
Thank you. Bye now!
I guess you tried.
You should get some sleep now.
If you want to read,
Sit at the very right end of the window.
It's the brightest.
Thanks.
This must be...
Daebeom.
That hurt. Daebeom!
Daebeom.
You can stop squirming away.
I wanted to return this.
I was going to do that...
I'll use it tonight and return it tomorrow.
Have a good night!
By the way...
Is there a bathroom here?
Bathroom's outside.
If it's outside, why did he give me water?
He didn't drink, just me.
No, this is bad.
Let's not even think about it.
It's almost time.
Hang in there.
Please...
If I let my guard down last minute, I'm doomed.
Running's not allowed.
I can't stop the flow once it starts pouring...
See you later.
What the heck?
- What was that? - Hey!
What's he doing?
Your bag.
My bag...
Hold on a minute.
Didn't he just talk?
Can he talk?
Daebeom, what was that?
Daebeom!
How drunk do you have to be to doze off in the library?
Right?
You're no better.
You could've just left her.
You can't even talk to a stranger.
Hey. Go home and freshen up. Take this, too.
Mom put stuff like ginseng tonic.
I haven't finished the last batch.
Mom's luring you. Call her.
I think she's mad.
- Tell her I thanked her. - Fine.
- Promise. - Fine.
Did he hear?
I bet he did.
Of course, he did.
I'm mortified. I can't live with myself.
I'm mortified.
I'm so embarrassed.
Fine.
I have nothing to lose.
No more regrets. I'll give my best in life.
I can do this!
I can do this.
Summer Strike
That chick is going to pay $50 for the rent.
What nonsense is that?
The pipe burst...
I told you. You're on your own.
You sneak a sleep here. You damage a book.
Well done.
Nobody thinks highly of you.
Behave yourself!
Don't think about living here for long.
A piece of shit tenant.
we should refund her rent to kick her out.
