(Episode 7)
(Seung Chan)
Let's meet at 2pm tomorrow by the dock.
Hey. Mom left you money.
She even made you toast.
My gosh. There.
This is size 240. Is it tight?
No. I'll take these.
Okay.
I'll just wear them out.
You must have plans.
You look so pretty.
You look about my daughter's age but you look like a real lady.
My daughter is still a total tomboy.
I'll be nice. I'll give you a five-dollar discount.
- Where is the change? - I don't need a discount.
Wait. Your shoes...
Seung Chan!
You look pretty. Even prettier than last time.
Thanks.
Sorry about last night.
I forgot you wanted to talk to me. Something happened at home.
You had me worried.
What happened? Is it bad?
It's nothing.
Okay. It's fine.
You don't need to tell me if you don't want to.
What did you want to tell me?
I'm sure you noticed,
but I liked you. Ever since I was little.
I couldn't see you all through junior high.
You have no idea how happy I was since last year.
I thought you had forgotten me.
When you called me Seung Soon, I was in such shock...
that I complained but then dancesport brought us together.
I was amazed.
I felt like we were destined to be together or something.
Remember you said...
someone liking another person may not mean much.
When you said that, I thought a lot about it.
I wondered if I was...
like all the other guys and just wanted to have a girlfriend.
But no matter how much I think about it...
I mean, casting aside all reasons,
I can't imagine being with anyone else but you.
Of course, from your perspective, I'm not special...
and I'm not good enough. But I'll try to become...
a really cool and awesome guy...
so you'll like me more.
Do you like me?
Why do you...
You said...
you like girls who are the opposite of me.
Did you get the wrong idea because of what I said?
Hey. I said that because I wanted things to work out with that girl.
That wasn't what I meant.
If I...
did something to upset you,
- can't you just tell me? - What do you mean?
- You did nothing wrong. - Did I say something to offend you?
Or if I upset you somehow,
please let me know. I was wrong. I'm sorry.
You didn't. I told you not to make me repeat myself.
Then why did you look at me like that back then?
Forget it.
This isn't right.
Something's going on with you.
I'm sorry if I led you on.
You never had any feelings for me?
Don't lie to me. Just say you played me.
I thought I should return this.
Here.
Hey...
Don't give me the cold shoulder just because I rejected you.
We have to be friends again once enough time passes.
Okay?
You don't like me, anyway.
She's tough, strong, honest, and bold.
I just like her.
You liked the illusion of me.
So it's okay.
I don't need to be sincere in response to that cheap illusion.
(Seung Chan)
(Block)
(Confirm)
There was a lack of communication...
within the people involved at the company.
I'll talk to the company...
and we'll continue with the sponsorship as planned.
There's no need. I don't want to receive that money.
I'm sorry about this.
(Kwon Dong Suk)
Also, it looks like something's going on among the adults.
I don't know what it is,
but I hope the kids won't be hurt anymore by it.
This savings account matures soon. Do you really want to break it?
Well, I have some circumstances.
Also, please make me a check card with access to that account.
Something high schoolers can use easily.
What's wrong with that company?
They ask us to perform, but they cancel last minute.
It's so hard to do a performance.
- Hey. What happens to us then? - Who knows?
Girls!
Let's have a pork belly barbecue party!
- What did that company say? - Why was it canceled?
Well, I went to the office.
There was a mistake among the people responsible for the event.
- What mistake? - It'll be hard...
for you to understand even if I tell you.
Regardless, since they were the ones who made a mistake,
they promised to sponsor the club.
- Happy? - That's great.
- Yes! - Right? Come with me.
- Let's grill up some meat. - Yes!
- Let's go! - Yes!
Guys.
Let's show what we can do at the school festival.
What do you say? This fall.
Only official clubs can participate at the school festival.
That's right. We can't take the stage with the clubs,
but we can go on as a talent show.
- We can do it! - Also, in the winter...
there is a national high school club competition in Changwon.
- During the break? - We have plenty of time.
- Sure. - Right.
But you guys can't make it past the first round with your skills.
What I'm saying is, you'll need to learn...
something that is at a higher level.
Can you do it? Do you want to try?
You don't have to if you don't want to.
Mr. Lee.
We should win one award before we graduate.
That's right! Our pride won't permit us to graduate like this!
- Cheers! - Okay.
Cheers!
- Cheers! - Bottoms up!
- How many transfers? - One.
- Okay. - Thank you.
Bye.
Is something going on with you today?
I'm a little busy today.
You're going to see your girlfriend, right?
That's right.
Are you dumping us to see your girlfriend?
I am not.
- Two dollars. - Okay.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Bye.
- Here. - Thank you.
Shi Eun.
Yes, sir?
Did you get home safely that night?
Of course I did.
- Did you and your mother... - What?
Oh, that? Yes, we're fine now.
Why?
Nothing. Go on.
Okay. Bye.
Bye.
Let's go!
See? They're on a whole other level from you guys.
They're so cool.
What we do isn't even dancesport in comparison.
Mr. Lee. Can we do that too?
Of course, you can. Why not?
After maybe 10 years.
- What? 10 years? - 10 years?
He's so mean.
Let's give it a shot. Let's perform at the festival...
and compete at the high school competition before you graduate.
Whoever wants can enter a team competition.
You should see their choreography. They're amazing.
- See? I bet... - Yes! Chips!
Shi Eun, would you be willing to perform with me?
You and me?
That's gross.
Wouldn't it be better to add as much to your list as possible?
Did you know all along?
"I performed on stage with our teacher."
- That sounds pretty good. - Yes, I want to do it. I'll do it.
As for the dance... Let's do the tango.
Okay.
Hey, aren't you going to share? Come on! Give me some too!
- 28 inch? - What? My waist is 28 inch?
- No, that's not possible. - Okay. I'll redo it.
Hey. That won't change the measurement.
- Breathe. - You need to breathe.
- It was wrong. - See? She was wrong.
- It's 29 inch. - Do it again, it'll be 30 inch.
- She changed. - AA.
Admit it. You're the smallest out of all of us.
It's because I lost weight. Redo my chest.
- When did you lost weight? - 4 men's and 4 women's.
A total of eight, right? Who's the last one?
He will be wearing the last one.
- That looks good. - Look.
- It looks good. - Hey.
Who's the closest in size to Hye Jin?
What? Are you still waiting for her?
You're insane. Do you love her or something?
I think Ye Ji is the closest.
- That's right. - Except for the chest.
How do you do that?
Mr. Lee! Oh no. Are you okay?
Mr. Lee.
Do you realize you're forging documents right now?
What?
Hye Jin came to school that day.
- Aren't I right, Mr. Han? - Pardon? Yes.
Did she really come? Should I ask the other teachers?
I don't think she did. I can't be sure.
I know you hid the attendance book from every class.
Because you let some students off,
the mood in the school is a total mess!
Did you forget you'll be responsible if anything happened to Hye Jin?
I said I'd bring her. Give me a break.
Do you want me to leave and go to another school?
- Mr. Han. - Yes?
Ms. Jung says she wants to extend her maternity leave by six months.
Six months? That's a long leave.
Sir, I...
- I'd like you to take her homeroom. - I refuse!
I thought she had gotten her act together for a while...
doing dancesport and all, but she's back at it.
Go with me to look for Hye Jin after school.
Why is it bad?
Why is it bad for her to go to juvenile detention?
Give me that. Give me that.
- Hello. - Hello.
I hear this place is popular with the kids...
- because you don't ID. - I never sell alcohol to kids.
I gave it to them for free.
Are you out of your mind? They're minors.
Drinking and driving. Assault. Murder.
Adults cause trouble after drinking just as much as kids do.
Whoever would, does. Whoever wouldn't, doesn't.
Have you seen her?
She's our part-timer.
Shi Ra!
The water suddenly stopped.
- Where are we going? - Where else? The police station!
You've been expelled!
You're done for, punk!
Then just report me.
(911)
Yes? Emergency.
I don't care whether or not you end up in juvenile detention.
Should I be more blunt?
I wish you'd go to juvenile detention.
Kids like you are the reason innocent teachers like Mr. Lee...
get transferred to schools without pension in their final years.
- If you have a bit of conscience... - Do you believe Mr. Lee?
I think he's a pervert.
Why else is he so obsessed with teaching girls how to dance?
Hey.
Not all the men in this world are like me.
Decide.
Will you go to school...
or to juvenile detention?
This is your last chance. I'll count to three.
(911)
One.
Two.
Quiet. I'm sure you're excited about the festival,
but don't forget about the office management skill evaluations.
Look at the guidelines you received at the beginning of the semester.
I hear you're performing at the festival.
As you learned...
You know we made your costume, right? Will you join us?
(Shi Eun)
Come here at times when you have a lot on my mind.
Yes.
Look, sir. Would you please stop looking at me like that?
When you fall in love, can you stop yourself...
from staring at that person?
I brought Hye Jin back to school for my own self.
You're a real angel. An angel.
If she doesn't come to school,
you'll have to transfer to another region.
Do you like me that much as well?
That means this isn't an unrequited love.
If you leave, who will run the dancesport club?
To be honest, it makes my job much easier...
having you take care of those six girls.
You are so adorable.
Seriously. It's not like that.
My gosh. Don't like Hye Jin too much.
Why not? At least she came back to school.
She may not say it,
but a part of it must have been for me, don't you think?
Mr. Lee. Take us into the city today.
What? Do you think I'm your taxi driver?
- Yes! - Thank you.
- Let's go! - Get in.
- Let's go! - Okay.
Hurry up!
- Get in. - Let's go.
Round and round
I go round and round
Round and round
- Yes! - You're too excited.
Hey, Shi Eun. Why did things fall through with you and Seung Chan?
That's right. Did he do something? Did he turn out to be garbage?
No. It wasn't much fun once I hung out with him.
You know, my friend told me about him.
What is it? Did Seung Chan badmouth Shi Eun?
What?
- What did he say? - I heard he was usually...
distant and tough, and hardly talked about himself to other guys.
Stop it already.
What could you have done wrong? She played you, I tell you.
Who said you could message a girl during the evening study hall?
I didn't. I had to look up something.
(Exit chat, confirm)
- This way you will stop. - Sir!
But he cried in front of everyone during their evening study hall.
The guys teased him that he was crying over a girl.
Things ended badly between you two, didn't it?
Shi Eun, you're a real femme fatale.
He didn't cry because of me.
- Actually, he dumped me. - For real?
That's right. Think about it.
Why would someone like him cry over someone like me?
It's okay, Shi Eun.
- We love you. - We love you.
Why don't you tell us that you love us?
Do you not love us?
- Hey. - Don't bother our Shi Eun.
She's just like that.
- No... - She's such a loner.
That lady.
Wasn't she at the venue for the performance that time?
You're right.
Why was she like that to that man from the company?
I don't know.
Class dismissed.
Shi Eun.
You know your mom's coming in to discuss your future plans, right?
- What? - You didn't know?
She's coming at 3pm.
That's odd. I wonder why she didn't tell you.
She called to say she'd think about sending you to college.
Anyway.
Monitor, clean the chalkboard.
Hey. Don't you want to see what Shi Eun's mom looks like?
Hey. Let's go see Shi Eun's mom. Let's go to the teachers' office.
- Yes. - Let's go.
- Hey, what's up? - Hi, Mom.
Are you coming to my school today?
Yes, I am.
Well...
The thing is...
But sorry, I have too much work. I don't think I can make it today.
Tell your teacher for me. I'm busy. I need to go. Bye.
Shi Eun, stop stepping on the back of your shoes. They aren't slippers.
What's it to you?
Everything is my fault.
What do your parents do? Do they work at Shipbuilding?
I work there as well.
- Yes. - What's your father's name?
It's only natural that you don't remember.
We moved out soon thereafter.
It's a lie to say that I just didn't want to say.
I was ashamed. I wanted to hide it.
He says the labor force is a pain in the neck.
I'm going this way.
If I had just told him the truth, there would've been no problems.
Did you have to come and ruin it?
I had several opportunities.
I repeated the same mistake multiple times,
and shunned those opportunities.
I did it to myself.
Why are you making it louder?
Let's leave it like this for a minute. I like the song.
You're back.
Yes. I'm fine now.
- I'm good now. - Already?
Did you even really like me?
Right?
Why did I get over you so quickly?
I'm disappointed.
I imagined you'd be all bitter,
cry, call and stuff like that.
It's not like we even dated or anything.
You don't hate me because I rejected you, do you?
Why would I hate you? It's not like you played me.
You just didn't like me, that's all.
- Later. - Okay.
What?
- What is it? - Hey.
Did you know it's Na Young's birthday today?
- Her birthday? Today? - I just found out.
I know.
- What? Know what? - I totally caught on.
She thinks we're planning something,
- but we don't have anything! - We're dead.
Hey. I'll go buy a cake and a gift before practice.
It's okay.
You're right.
Look here.
Hey, I'm asking since we became really close now.
How did you know I didn't quit judo because of an injury?
What are you talking about?
It's fine. Just be honest. I won't get mad.
What? I really didn't know.
Whose messaging account is this?
(Episode 8 will air after 1 minute.)
Ye Ji.
Ye Ji. Come here.
Were you reading my messages?
What right do you have to get angry?
Attention seeker. Loser.
Microorganisms. Trash?
You never used our names in this chat.
Not once.
You joined dancesport to get into college.
Why did you tell us you wanted to join a club with friends?
I didn't want to tell you. That's my prerogative.
When you told us we could do it and encouraged us,
you did it to use us to achieve your goal.
That's what it said.
Should I have told you...
that you can't do it and that it will never happen?
Looking at us depresses you?
Our lives are hopeless, but we don't realize it?
How could you smile at us while thinking that?
Then what? Should I cry?
Na Young said she never told you about why I quit judo.
She never said she didn't want to be my dance partner either.
- When did I say that? - You're a piece of work.
You told Ye Ji you considered her a closer friend,
and you told me I was a closer friend.
Back when we weren't close.
Did you ever consider us to be your friends?
Of course.
Shi Eun. We're not complaining about your joining dancesport...
in order to get into college. It's understandable.
- The problem is, you keep lying. - I didn't lie!
- You guys are picking on me. - Don't you get it?
We just want you to admit your lies...
and apologize to us. That would end all of this!
She isn't even worth listening to.
Sorry, guys.
Fine.
I'll leave the club if you guys hate me.
We're not telling you to leave!
I'll disappear from your sight.
Shi Eun.
Fine. I've confirmed it.
You never once considered us as your friends.
And that although you've been pretending to be nice,
you're a bad person in reality.
That's not true.
But if you guys hate me, there's nothing I can do.
I'll leave the club.
You're still lying. How could you play the victim?
That lady on the floor outside the performance...
Stop it. Don't do it. She isn't worth it.
No. I need to ask.
We saw her on the street too. You saw her too!
Why didn't you tell us that she was your mom?
Tell me!
Bye.
Shi Eun.
That woman who fought with my dad at the performance venue...
was your mom?
There's no use running.
Whatever I do, I'm scum anyway.
Hey, Shi Eun.
Yes, that woman is my mom.
She's a contract laborer at a subcontractor.
That's my mom.
I played dumb because I felt too humiliated.
In case everything I kept silent about to you would become lies.
And the girl you liked wasn't the real me.
I'm not bold, tough, or honest. I'm nothing but trash.
Shi Eun. How could you do that to me?
Then have you lied to me all this time?
I have nothing more to say.
Hey.
Don't you feel...
- apologetic toward me at all? - Why should I be?
- What? - I mean,
you imagined what kind of a person I am and liked me on your own.
Now, you want me to apologize because I'm not that person.
- You fooled me. - Yes, I told a few lies.
But there's only one thing I did wrong with those lies.
Pretending not to know my mom.
The person I need to apologize to isn't you, it's my mom.
You don't need to apologize to me either. I was the same.
The person you are now isn't the guy that I liked.
I don't like you anymore either.
Guarantee no layoffs!
- No layoffs! - No layoffs!
- Grandma. - What?
- Can you really not reach my mom? - I told you so many times already.
Your mom tried to abort you to give herself a better life.
She never called once. Don't look for her.
All she did was give birth to you. Tell yourself...
she has nothing to do with you.
Just live your life like that.
Okay?
(Search results for Kim Eun Young)
You walked all the way here because of me, didn't you?
Did you fight with your friends too? Do you have anyone to eat with?
I'll be fine eating alone. I can eat by myself just fine.
Sure. As you said,
I imagined the type of person I wanted you to be,
and liked that image I drew. I admit it.
Okay.
I don't like you anymore anyway, so no need to go that far.
Fine.
Sorry. I'm also...
not as good a guy as you had hoped.
But you know,
there's no guy who would be fine after hearing that.
Is there a stray dog barking or something?
A mutt.
Do you hate me that much?
Yes. I don't just hate you, I despise, loathe you.
I have zero desire to look good to you. I hate you so much,
that I can probably not shower, wash my hair, or brush my teeth,
and sing and dance naked in front of you.
I can't stand your eyes, nose, lips, head to toe,
the mole on your face, your pale skin, your accent...
I can't stand any of it.
The fact that I'm living and breathing on this earth with you...
makes me want to stop breathing and die.
That's how much I hate you. Happy?
Fine. I got it. Then start taking the bus again.
I won't take it.
- What a real psycho. - I can't understand.
Loser, microorganisms, trash? How could she...
She's so annoying.
We don't have class today. Go to your club room.
- Go! - Okay.
I came to apologize. I admit everything I did wrong.
What is she babbling about? Now that she's an outcast...
Let her be. She'll stop on her own.
Let's practice.
At first,
I did look down on you. It's true.
- I can't hear her. - But when I thought about it,
the reason I looked down on you was because I was a loser.
That was the only way to feel less pathetic.
Hey. How long will she keep yapping?
You can ignore me if you see me in school.
- Who said we couldn't? Did you? - She's delusional.
She thinks she's something special.
You can't perform if I leave,
so I'll leave after this performance.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
No, Mr. Lee. Let's practice.
- I said to eat with me. - You have your friends.
Don't pity me. That makes me feel more pathetic.
I wasn't close with those girls in junior high.
Do you know how we got close?
Our homeroom teacher told everyone about their family situation.
No one knew until then.
So we cursed out the teacher and our parents.
That's how we got close.
But one of them told me later...
that it was the most painful time in her life.
But thanks to that, she gained good friends.
And that she was glad.
And that she can look back on those times and it's okay.
Thanks for the pastry.
I'm so full.
My belly is about to burst.
- Mr. Lee! - Hey!
- Are you okay? - Mr. Lee!
- Mr. Lee! - Mr. Lee!
- Oh no! - What should we do?
Should we call a doctor?
Oh no. What if he broke his back?
- No, right? - Hey.
What extreme sport did you do? You can't move too much...
for the next week at least.
- A week? - This is insanity.
What do we do about practice? The festival is only two weeks away.
You know. We have our helper. Kwon from the school next door.
No, not him! I'd rather not do it. I really can't.
Then who wants to help?
- Not me. - I'll do it.
There are many parts where the man supports the woman's body weight.
You don't have the basic steps and your physique is too similar.
- It'll be hard. - I can do it.
I'm strong.
You don't have to do it if you don't want to.
I'm doing it because I want to. Plus, Mr. Lee asked.
Don't get the wrong idea.
It's not that I want to dance with you.
- I just really want to dance. - I know that too.
Hey, Shi Eun.
Why won't you look me in the eye?
- Because I don't want to. - I don't want to either!
But I have to if I want to dance properly.
Plus, it's not like I want to touch you.
Fine. I'll look at you. Happy?
(Sports Dance)
You must not trust your partner.
You need to trust your partner and trust your body with him.
Let's just take out the last move.
It's too hard for Mr. Lee, too.
Shi Eun.
- I'm here. - Mr. Lee.
- Hello. - Hi.
- I'll get going then. - Sure. Actually, have one of these.
- Thank you. - Thanks for your help.
Shi Eun. I think you've mastered the choreography now.
Work on your facial expression now. I know I'm your teacher,
but how can't you dance with that emotionless face?
Imagine I'm the person you like.
There is no such person.
And I don't want to do that with you.
Gosh.
If it tastes good, it's zero calories!
A Seoul girl? But Seoul girls don't like you.
- They dig Gyeongsang Province guys. - You should look in the mirror!
- Quiet, quiet. - Seriously.
- I said to be quiet. - Hey!
- You... - Listen.
Tell us.
If you see a Seoul girl, you go up to her...
Are you okay?
You must be confused. It means nothing to me.
I saw everything.
Yes. You're not as good as I thought.
I was very disappointed in you,
and you're not very pretty up close.
You say annoying things and you're a rude brat!
You're a real jerk. I hate you. I despise you, but...
I keep regretting...
jumping to conclusions about your parents' jobs,
looking down on your mom,
saying she made life hard for my dad. I regret it all.
If only I hadn't done that...
I'd like to undo it if I could,
but it's impossible, no matter how much I think about it!
I'm confused too. I don't know what's wrong with me.
What are you confused about?
I think...
I still like you.
Do you like me?
Don't make me laugh. You pity me, that's all.
I can't stand myself right now. How could you possibly like me?
Yes.
It's so hard right now. Looking at you...
makes me sick because it reminds me of that day.
I wish I could just disappear.
Please, I'm begging you.
Please stay out of my sight.
(Girls' Commercial High School Club Festival)
Mom.
I'm performing at school. Will you come watch?
I don't have time.
I didn't even say when.
You don't want me going to your school anyway.
I'd like you to come watch.
Forget it.
Mom. Stop being like that.
She's trying to apologize in her own way.
What did you fight about this time that it's lasting so long?
Where's Shi Eun?
Didn't you tell her when the rehearsal was?
I don't know. She'll figure it out.
You guys are incredible.
Do you guys never lie or talk bad about others?
I guess your heads are filled with only kind thoughts.
I envy you so much.
I feel so bad for Shi Eun.
Why did you read her messages?
You were in the wrong. Who are you to judge?
Hello.
I'll be joining the dancesport club...
in Shi Eun's place from now on.
I wanted to introduce myself today.
What? Who says?
- Shi Eun asked me to take her spot. - Who is she to choose a new member?
She said she had to suddenly drop out due to personal reasons,
and that she was being responsible for finding a sub.
I'm sorry.
Hey, Na Young.
To be honest, we talked behind her back about her uniform too,
- calling her poor. - I was...
We didn't think of her as a friend in the beginning either.
You know, we got carried away at the moment too.
I want to accept her apology, but the timing is...
We were too nasty to her.
Didn't you tell Shi Eun?
Mr. Lee. I told you. They told me, but I forgot.
It's okay.
I'll get ready.
Gather round.
This is the first time we're going on a proper stage, right?
It isn't a competition. It's a school festival.
So what you place isn't important.
Later on, even after you guys graduate,
I hope you can look back on these moments,
saying, "Those were fun times."
"It was nice."
