JUNG DA-JEONG'S OTHER MAN IS A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT?
A 37-YEAR-OLD MAN BECAME 18?
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO HER AND HER 18-YEAR-OLD HUSBAND?
DAE-YEONG
I'll tell you a funny story.
DAE-YEONG
It's about Dae-yeong.
DAE-YEONG
The person you have reached…
GYM OFFICE
U-yeong, why are you here?
What about you two?
What do you think? It's a parent-teacher meeting.
I think I made myself clear enough. Give it a good thought.
Let me know.
What did you two talk about?
Why do you want to know?
It was between me and Ms. Jung.
Does it concern you?
No.
I'll ask her myself.
You'll ask her yourself?
Did something bad happen?
No.
What did you and Mr. Choi talk--
Hey, Ae-rin.
One second.
You should go.
Okay.
Hey, Ae-rin.
Never mind.
Let's talk later.
I'll tell you a funny story.
It's about Dae-yeong.
2009 KBU ROOKIE DRAFT OPEN TRYOUT
I saw Dae-yeong at KBU's open tryout ten years ago.
He had quit training for a while,
so he was nowhere as good as the kids who had been training hard.
Of course, he got dropped.
But…
Goodness, he's here again?
Tell me about it. It has been two months.
-Two months? -Yes.
Coach, what are you up to?
He's still here?
Exactly. He's one persistent kid.
-Il-gwon. -Yes, Coach.
You know him, right?
I do.
What?
-He has asthma. -Asthma?
I heard that's an incurable disease.
It must be treated regularly,
or he may have difficulty breathing on a regular basis.
But most children can recover fully once they receive treatment,
so don't be discouraged.
Si-u.
Just grow up healthy.
Dae-yeong!
Someone's here to see you!
What is it?
Our coach gave you permission to join our practice.
Thanks for the offer,
but I have no time to practice.
Why not?
Si-u is sick, so I have to make money.
You'll give up just for that?
"Just for that"?
Mr. Hong! What are you doing over there?
I have to go.
-What? -I'm sorry.
Are you serious?
You lived with him but didn't know?
Figures. You must be doing this now because you had no idea what had happened.
It's true when people say you need money to reach your dream.
Look at Dae-yeong.
If he didn't have to make money to pay Si-u's hospital bills,
he'd be successful in this field now.
Da-jeong.
Think carefully.
Will you make Si-u give up basketball because of money
just like Dae-yeong?
I thought he had changed.
What's wrong?
Why are you drinking? You never drink.
Nothing is wrong. Let me drink a little more.
But…
What's wrong with you?
You received another complaint. How many times is this now?
What in the world are you good at?
Are you good at anything?
I had no idea he had put in hard work and passion
previously used for his dream
for the family.
Sir, you still need to pay for the visit.
You didn't fix anything. Why should I pay you?
-Sir. Sir, please! -Goodness.
Sir!
You've done this for years! Why can't you do something that simple?
Aren't you ashamed?
I'm sorry.
You're drinking again?
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Are you ashamed of me?
Do you think I'd be proud of you?
You're so pathetic.
PRESS CONFERENCE YE JI-HUN OF SEUM WOLVES
Did he do something?
I knew he'd do something like that. See?
I believe many people were shocked and disappointed to find out
that I'm an unmarried man with a seven-year-old child.
However, my child is the one who is the most shocked at the moment.
She still calls me "Uncle Ji-hun."
PRESS CONFERENCE
My daughter is actually my older brother's child,
who died last year.
-I adopted my brother's daughter. -He's amazing.
-That's so unfortunate. -Goodness.
I had many thoughts racing through my mind
after she was made known to the public.
Ji-hun, I heard you are getting ready to retire.
-All of a sudden? -Right now?
PRESS CONFERENCE
-No way. -He's retiring?
I had to learn to be more responsible instead of giving up.
I'm going to show her how I take the mound, throw a pitch,
and take responsibility.
If anything, for her sake,
I will continue to play.
YE JI-HUN'S OFFICIAL STATEMENT
What a relief.
That's very cool.
Goodness, what a man.
We got a report that the girl's mom is alive.
Who is she?
Are you in touch with her mom?
-I have a question. -Ji-hun!
-Please answer us. -Give an answer.
-We have questions for you. -We've got questions.
Are you refusing to answer?
-Ji-hun! -Do you?
As you know, the game is just around the corner.
Make sure you get ready, and stay on top of your game.
U-yeong and Si-u. You two are still on reserve,
so clean up before you leave.
Dismissed.
-Great work. -Great job.
Coach.
Don't we usually clean up together?
What now? Are you complaining?
Everyone does this in the beginning.
Like father, like son. They both lack basic knowledge.
Si-u.
Throw this out and go.
No, let's do it together.
It'll take us much longer.
Let's get it done and go rest.
Okay, then.
See you tomorrow.
Hey.
You can go first.
I put in 50 percent more as you suggested last time.
Your calculations are accurate.
Don't worry about having Ja-seong start.
All right.
I look forward to your continuous cooperation.
Sure.
What just happened?
We'll talk later.
Have you been bribing him to let me play?
Tell me!
You weren't good enough, so I helped out a little. That's all.
How can a father say that?
I wouldn't if you were good enough to start
and get into college!
Then don't.
I'm not going to college.
I am
ashamed of you, Father.
All you do is whine just like your mom.
Just do as I tell you!
If you don't, I'll kick you out just as I did your mom!
Ja-seong!
How's your face?
Are you all right?
Why do you care?
You and Si-u always show up in times like these.
Si-u?
Wait, is that why you've been bullying him?
This is humiliating. U-yeong, I'm warning you.
Watch what you say.
Have a drink.
You can drink on a day like this.
Mind your own business!
Why do you keep bothering me?
You might regret it later.
My dad also beat me from time to time.
He never did that before,
but it began after my mother passed away.
It wasn't your fault,
so why do something you'll regret?
It's not like I was spying on you.
I'm sorry. I'll keep it a secret.
Actually, I quit drinking,
but I'll drink just for today, with you.
Give me a break.
Are you comforting me?
Why? Do I suddenly seem pathetic because I have to bribe the coach
to be in the starting lineup?
You're a good player.
You could've done it on your own anyway.
But your dad simply got caught up with some bad guys.
It's not because you're a lousy player.
Also,
don't do anything you'll regret like before.
No matter how much you hate him,
being unable to take it back…
That is…
much sadder than you think.
What? This is non-alcoholic.
Hey.
How am I going to carry him?
My back hurts.
How does someone get drunk from non-alcoholic beer?
He is a kid after all.
I knew it. I never doubted you.
We're getting together to comfort you. Make sure you come.
I'm writing regarding restarting KD Bank's advertisements.
Call us whenever you can.
Everyone changed their tune overnight.
I'm sure Da-jeong saw the press conference.
We're all here. Aren't you coming?
I failed to record anything.
What should I do now?
Then a parent who made a deal with him will have to testify.
If someone who bribed him testifies, will they be punished?
They can't help it.
That's why it won't be easy to get anyone to testify.
One second.
What?
Come outside right now.
You don't even know where I am.
I'm busy. I'm working right now.
Is your job cutting pork cutlets?
What?
Hey, you.
What's going on? Have you been following me?
Get in.
Are you crazy? Why would I get in your car?
Let's talk inside.
You get one minute.
Hey, what are you doing?
YE JI-HUN
Hey, Ji-hun.
What's up?
What are you up to?
Eating dinner.
What? I was about to eat too.
Enjoy.
Sure. You too.
Come on, is that all?
Right. I'm so relieved you decided not to retire.
-Hey, over here. -He's here.
-Why are you so late? -Where is he going?
I'm sure you'll do a great job.
I'll support you as a fan.
Thanks.
Hey.
Why are you here?
I need to eat too.
But then I found you right here.
What are the chances, right?
Seriously.
Are you here alone?
With my friends.
Why are you here alone?
My friend went out for a second,
but it's taking her a while.
Are you crazy? Why did you bring me here?
This is where our history began.
How can you forget me so easily?
I'll never forget you.
You are…
my first love.
You're too old for this nonsense! Unbelievable.
-You can go home. -Goodness.
-Goodbye. -Bye.
-Yes! -Stop it.
-Please. -Stop!
-You've been doing this for years! -You can't.
What do you see in me anyway?
To me, you're prettier than Kim Ha-neul
or Kim Tae-hee, and cuter than Suzy.
You're all I can think of. What can I do?
I'm your responsibility!
She doesn't like you!
-Who are you? -Me?
Don't do it. Don't. Please don't.
Okay, fine. I'll help out.
Who are you?
I'm Ae-rin's boyfriend.
Did you dump me over this guy?
To me,
he's awfully sexy.
Mr. Ko, sexy?
No way.
Okay, fine. You two make a great couple. I was the weirdo.
Have a great life!
Let's go.
Anyway, thanks for helping.
Goodbye, then.
That was new.
-What should we eat? -Pasta.
-Pasta? -Yes.
Is that enough?
Then steak.
Steak. Steak sounds great.
You asshole!
I can't believe this.
Exactly. I'm so out of it right now,
so I'm headed home.
All right. Don't worry about me.
Go and get some rest.
Your friend can't come?
No.
You should have fun with your friends.
I'll get going.
I'll go with you.
I'll give you a ride.
I'm fine.
Why? Is there a bus that takes you home?
Not really, but your friends are waiting.
I wouldn't feel comfortable if I let you drive me home.
I see.
Don't think of it that way.
At times, the best thing to do is act, and not think too much.
Don't think too much.
Thank you.
Why? You won't let me take you home.
Are you thanking me in advance to get a ride later?
That's not what I meant.
To be honest, something got a bit complicated.
But thanks to you, it became simple.
I'll only face forward from now on.
Then I should take responsibility and look out for you.
I'm your first fan.
Your biggest support.
Thanks for becoming my first fan.
Goodbye, then.
Goodbye.
It's all right.
As I said,
I'm right behind you.
He hit me first.
Did you really hit him first?
Yes.
You look fine. Just settle and go home.
You can discuss that with my attorney.
I'm not talking to you. I mean him.
May I make a phone call?
You're really going to get an attorney?
Fine, do whatever you want.
MOU
WONBUK POLICE STATION
I'm at the police station
with Choi Il-gwon.
I hit him.
I don't know about anything else, but I can't let him do that, Ms. Ok.
-You crazy idiot! -Why? What?
Give me your phone!
-Give it to me! -No.
-Officer. -Take this.
Stop it!
SEOUL WONBUK POLICE STATION
-What happened? -It's nothing, Ms. Ok.
It is something.
I saw him walking out of a hotel with another woman.
Your boyfriend is deceiving you.
What?
Are you suggesting that Mr. Choi and I are dating?
Aren't you?
He told me to keep it a secret
because you'd be uncomfortable if others found out about you two.
What are you talking about?
-Are you ill? -Let me go.
You said it has been a month.
You told me at the escort bar
when you demanded money from me.
-I'll kill you, asshole. -Stop it.
He keeps saying absurd things. What's with him?
It doesn't sound absurd.
Do you believe him?
I mean that I don't trust you.
And I just figured out what you're truly like
through the words and the actions you just showed.
And Mr. Ko.
I lied to you to make you give up.
Please don't misunderstand our relationship.
Man.
As if you're that dignified.
What did you just say?
Stop acting like you're so refined.
You should look back on how you've lived.
I'm sure an idiot like this made a move on you
because you went around leading people on.
Girls like you are always total fakes.
-What did you say? -How dare you insult her like that?
You're back here already?
Just settle and go.
No.
He insulted Ms. Ok. I will never let that go.
I wasn't talking to you!
COMPLAINANT: CHOI IL-GWON
Get up.
Get up and stand straight!
Whoa.
You deserve a good beating. That was nowhere enough!
Stay still!
You deserve to be beaten again.
How dare you?
I'm not done with you yet.
Let me go, you jerk! Let go.
You psychopath.
Choi Il-gwon!
Choi Il-gwon?
You're up.
Who's that?
It's okay. He's nice.
Does he beat up people?
For no reason? Why?
I've been beaten up for no reason.
My dad also beat me from time to time. He never did that before,
but it began after my mother passed away.
That guy?
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
You're aware of the admission fraud that recently broke out
at Suhun High School, aren't you?
They haven't done well for some time
because the kids made the team by bribing the coach.
I hope you aren't doing that, Mr. Choi.
Goodness, sir. I'm a teacher before I'm a coach.
I've only picked the best players to start.
But our team has been doing worse and worse.
Can we make it to Nationals?
I'm testing everyone today
to make a list of starters after school.
If you can't trust me,
you can come and watch.
Let's do that.
The new boys are really good.
You're right.
Now.
These are the starters for the next game.
Bang Gi-yong.
Gu Ja-seong.
Lee Jin-hyeok.
Hong Si-u.
Ko U-yeong. That's all.
I look forward to it.
Great job.
At times, the best thing to do is act, and not think too much.
SERIM BASKETBALL TEAM PARENTS CHAT ROOM
I'm Jung Da-jeong, Hong Si-u's mother.
I'd like to meet everyone to discuss Coach Choi's demand for money
in return for letting our children start.
I'll meet you tonight at seven
at the cafe across from the school.
U-yeong.
My father was busy with work, so I came in his place.
You didn't have to know about this.
It's about me, so I should know.
Sure.
But
it looks like no one will show up.
I hope I'm not being a nuisance to everyone else.
I like what you're doing.
You're doing your best for our sake.
What you're doing is right, so don't think that.
Okay?
U-yeong.
Don't come to these meetings from now on.
This is something the adults must handle.
You can just focus on your training.
Okay.
Can you stay here for a second?
What?
Have some.
It's for indigestion.
Okay, thanks.
How did you know I had indigestion?
It happens to me when I get stressed out.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm all right.
You don't look all right.
Give me your hand.
This works like a charm.
How do you feel?
I think I'm getting better.
Right?
What are you stressed about this time?
Who's stressing out my woman? I'll kill that jerk.
Goodness.
I'm okay now.
I'll get going.
Mom.
Why do you look so tired? What's wrong?
Nothing is wrong.
You can't fool me.
You can tell whenever Si-a lies, right?
I can see right through you too.
Everything is fine.
You never share your problems. You'll never get rid of that bad habit.
You're not a kid anymore.
You're responsible for your kids now.
Thanks, Mom.
I'm sorry.
Time flies.
Mom, did you throw away the papers on my desk?
Yes, I took those out when I cleaned your room.
I told you not to touch my stuff.
Why are you angry? Then why didn't you clean up?
I never asked you to do it.
This is so annoying.
Annoying? That's no way to talk to your mother.
You touched my stuff. How could I not be annoyed?
Grandma, you need to stop her.
Si-a.
Why are you being mean to my daughter?
What?
I don't condone anyone being mean to me daughter.
I don't care if you're my granddaughter.
Apologize to her now.
Okay.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I gave birth to a girl who's like me, just as you said.
All children are immature.
I'm a mom and a grandma here,
but I'm also just a daughter when I'm with my mom.
So you can be a mom with your kids,
but you can always be a daughter when you're with me.
And tell me when someone upsets you.
I'm on your side.
I feel so full even though I haven't eaten.
Why haven't you had dinner yet?
I'll make you some food. Get changed and come out.
Thanks, Mom.
I'm here, Mom.
Do you remember my face?
You might be more used to this face, actually.
I went home for once.
I saw your picture on the wall.
You looked the same as before.
You were still the same mom
that I miss so much.
Great work today, everyone.
Mom, great work today.
I'll wait outside.
Okay, I'll be done soon.
Honey, are you all right?
What do we do about Dae-yeong?
Dad, I'm home.
Mom, why is Dad drinking so much lately?
Did you pack your socks? And towels?
Of course.
Don't overdo it because it's an away game.
Don't get hurt.
I won't.
Anyway.
Mom, are you sick?
Why are you worried about me?
Focus on yourself during the game. Okay?
Okay.
Dae-yeong.
You know
that I love you very much, don't you?
Why are you being so cringy?
Run along.
-Bye. -Okay.
Go back inside.
Serim High wins!
-Great job! -We did it!
Yes!
Dae-yeong.
Mom.
Dae-yeong.
Her surgery didn't go well.
What surgery?
Why would she get surgery?
Wake her up.
Dae-yeong.
Wake her up right now!
Wake her up!
Your mom
had been very sick.
Why didn't you tell me before that she was sick?
Why didn't you say anything?
Why didn't you tell me anything?
It was all for your sake.
Mom…
No parent wants to ruin their child's life!
Some might think you actually care about your kids.
You punk!
Do you really care about me?
Is that why you didn't tell me Mom was sick?
Is that why you told Da-jeong to get an abortion?
Did you ever try to think from my perspective?
All you do is drink. Don't say that you lived for your family.
You didn't do a thing for your family.
Give that to me. Give it to me.
That's enough!
If you leave now,
you're no longer my child!
U-yeong?
Hello.
But…
What brings you here?
My mother is buried here.
You're still so young. You poor thing.
All right, then. You should go.
Goodbye.
Give it to me. I'll carry it.
-It's all right. -I'll take it.
All right.
Let's go.
Is today her death anniversary?
Yes.
She passed on the same day as my wife.
My wife passed away on this day too.
It has been years
since I visited on the day of her anniversary.
Why?
My son couldn't stay by her deathbed because of me.
I should've given him a chance to say goodbye.
I regret that very much.
Since then,
I wanted him to visit his mom without feeling uncomfortable,
so I always came a day after.
I decided to come on the day of this year
since he's in Busan right now.
But I guess he stopped by already to see his mom.
I see these flowers every year,
but I don't know the name.
Those are hyacinths.
What a difficult name.
I'm sorry.
Forgive me.
What?
The flower's meaning.
I see.
Don't be sorry.
The parents are the ones who are sorry.
Honey, have you been well?
PRIORITY SEAT
I didn't want to live
like my father.
My father was
a selfish man.
But…
My dad can't come to watch the game.
Are you disappointed?
It's fine. He's always like this.
What do you mean, always?
He always says he cares about us and nags us,
but he cares only about himself.
But I…
inherited his life exactly the same.
The world was a cold place.
I needed alcohol to forget the harsh day.
Si-u, you shouldn't be out playing. You should be studying.
And you, Si-a. You always go out with your friends.
Could my children
survive in this tough world?
The more worried
and despaired I became about life,
the more I scolded them.
-Where are you going? -To see a friend.
Come home early.
That's how
I grew away from my children,
just like me
and my father.
Mr. Hong.
Come and watch the game tomorrow if you have time.
Si-u and I will be starting the game.
S-Si-u is starting?
Then I'll have to make time.
Then please do come.
I will.
-I'll take that. -It's okay. It's very light.
All right.
KBF NATIONAL BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
Gather round!
We'll be eliminated if we lose this game.
Make sure you put in everything.
-Okay? -Yes, Coach!
And I've changed the starting lineup.
Gu Ja-seong, Bang Gi-yong, Gu Bon-seung,
Park Jeong-min, Ha Su-yeon. That's all.
There's the tip off!
Pass!
BAEJIN HIGH: 67, SERIM HIGH: 54
Is this how you coach?
We're 15 points behind!
If we are eliminated because we lose this,
Serim will get a new basketball coach.
But…
-It's okay. -Keep it up!
-You can do this! -Don't give up!
-Keep it going! -Hey!
U-yeong, Si-u. Get ready.
Substitution.
Let's go.
Great job.
BAEJIN HIGH: 88, SERIM HIGH: 76
Isn't our son amazing?
You raised him. You're the amazing one.
We raised him together.
BAEJIN HIGH: 88, SERIM HIGH: 86
BAEJIN HIGH: 88, SERIM HIGH: 89
-Yes! -Yes!
Si-u!
Dad!
U-yeong, you were awesome today.
You too, Si-u.
Great job.
Father.
You said you were the happiest
when you see me on the court.
I've wanted you to see it again.
I'm sorry it took so long.
I'm sorry.
Father.
Dae-yeong.
I am…
sorry.
I'm sorry.
Don't come if you're busy.
I couldn't go last time.
I have to be there this time.
You'll move onto the finals if you win today.
Where are you now?
I haven't been there in a while,
so I got lost.
I'll be there soon. Okay.
Da-jeong!
Dae-yeong.
No.
It's okay.
I shouldn't have come.
No. This is my decision.
Don't cry.
You're my future,
and so is our baby.
So
just trust me.
I'm sorry.
Jung Da-jeong.
Go out with me!
Don't worry, Da-jeong.
I'll take care of you.
I love you.
You've suffered so much
because you met me.
After all, you need money to play ball.
You haven't realized that simple truth. That's why you still live like that.
Can you handle admission fraud on On Scene 25 Hours?
Are you here on business?
I am. I came here on purpose, on business, to see you.
It might make things harder for Da-jeong and your kids.
Target observation complete.
Plan will be executed tomorrow.
Yes, I'll give you that chance.
