FRANKLY SPEAKING

LIAR LION

Liar Lion.

"Once upon a time, there lived a liar lion
in the faraway Lion Land."

"The lion had the most beautiful mane."

"All the other lions were jealous
of his magnificent mane."

It looks so cool.

"But the lion had a big secret."

What could it be?

"His mane was fake."

It was fake.

"The fake mane made him uncomfortable
and hurt his head,

but he put up with it
because he didn't want to take it off."

"The lion blamed his mom and dad
for not giving him a nice mane."


"'This is my mane.
I have the coolest mane in the world.'"


"But the lion was always afraid
that his secret might be revealed."


EPISODE 12: FRANKLY SPEAKING

Mom.

Yu-jeong.

I thought you might not wake up.

I was terrified.

I had a good sleep.

Yeah.

I feel refreshed.

Yes.

Why are you crying?

My In-su.

You're a crybaby, aren't you?

What's wrong?

Don't cry.

Why are you crying?

Don't cry, In-su.

You have three grown sons.

You're a crybaby.

Yeah.

MAY SHE REST IN PEACE

Drink some water and have some food.

If your mother saw you drinking like this,
she would chew you out.

She said when she felt better...

she'd go to your salon
to get her hair done.

She said she picked out
the best ones she had.

This is so like her.

She just loved giving out things
in envelopes.

She kept asking

what if she never got a chance

to apologize to you.

If she wanted to,
she should've apologized.

She could've gotten her hair done

and thrown money in an envelope.

She should've come to see
the girl she hated one last time.

JEWELRY FOR BOK-JA

I've never seen Dad cry before.

I've never heard him call Mom by her name.

I've never seen him fight.

Come in. Your mom is asking for you.

Mom.

I saved the last episode
of Ppong-sik's Family to watch with you.

I would feel betrayed
if you had watched it.

Let me see you.

Goodness, why is your hair so disheveled?

You seem to have lost a lot of weight
because of me.

Are you all right?

Does it hurt anywhere?

I'm okay. Perfectly fine.

My dear boys.

Have you eaten?

Kim Jeong-heon.

Jeong-heon!

Cancel everything on my schedule.
I want to take a break.

You go MIA for days,
and now you want to do what?

Are you actually going to retire?

No.

What then?

Hibernate?

When I wake up in the spring,
I'll think about it.

What are you, a frog?

No, a raccoon.

Seriously though.

In the past few years,
I've never even taken a week off.

Not even a full day, actually.

You know that better than anyone.

Ms. Ma.

I know I'm making things hard for you.

Then why are you doing this?

I'm just trying to keep myself alive.

So cut me some slack, Mi-ra.

-Here you go.
-Thank you.

Oh, hey!

-Hey, how are you?
-Great, thanks.

How's your show going?

Okay, I guess.

By the way, is Min-gu working with you?

Yeah, why?

Well, my assistant called it quits,
so I called him,

but he said he wasn't available.

We're planning a show together.

I see.

Listen. I hear Min-gu works
as a chauffeur on the side now.

What?

I'm sorry to ask you this,

but if you're still in the planning stage,

could he join our team for a few months
with additional pay?

When your show gets slotted,
I'll send him back.

Wow, cool.

-Let me see what else it can do.
-This is amazing.

-It's so pretty.
-Hi, Woo-ju.

Oh, hello.

Hey.

Oh, you got coffee. Thank you.

Thank you.

Woo-ju, check this out.

-This would be good for games.
-Yeah.

You should try it too.

OUR CAPTAIN

Our captain.

Want me to remove it?

No.

It's cool.

I-na. Let's get to work.

Okay.

You guys are fired.

What?

I broke the only rule of our team.

Therefore, we're disbanding.

What's the rule of our team?

Min-gu, you tell her.

We don't work for unfair wages.

But that's just until production starts.

I heard you have a part-time job.

And I-na's probably
in a similar situation.

You two must be getting lots of offers,
but you don't want me to feel bad.

It's not like that, Woo-ju.

Go eat and then go home.
Don't come back here.

I'm really glad to hear about your mother.

Thank you.

You must be feeling better.
Can you focus on work now?

Yes.

Ki-baek.

I don't need to tell you
how important this time is for you, right?

I LOVE NEWS!

You asked me before if you could do
news shows as a freelancer.

Right. I did.

Do you still want to host news shows?

I'm surprised
Ms. Ma is letting you do news shows.

It's not an authentic news show.
It's a casual thing.

Still, the format is the same, isn't it?

What's wrong?
You were dying to do a news show.

Yeah, I was.

I thought it'd k*ll me
if I couldn't do it.

No, it won't k*ll you.

It won't.

Are you embarrassed?

Because it feels like you're sniffing
around it again after kicking it away?

Tell me. Why are you hesitating?

I'm not. I already gave her my answer.

So you told her you'd do it?

I don't want to do a news show.

I'm not going to.

I actually did some research on you.
But this is unexpected.

I'm not the same person I used to be.

A lot has happened
since you quit your last job, right?

Yes. So many things have happened.

Still, I'm curious
because you sound so certain.

I thought it'd make me look successful.

I thought being seated
at the heart of the news desk

would prove that I was a successful man.

That's why you were obsessed with it?
Like it'd k*ll you if you didn't do it?

Whenever people talked me up
and said I had it all,

you have no idea how anxious I was.

The truth is, I've got nothing.

I've lived my whole life
hiding behind a flashy mask.

Look, everyone wears a mask. Who doesn't?

Unless you get struck by lightning
and lose your mind.

Luckily, I was struck by lightning
straight through.

What?

I thought I was going to go down for sure,

but I didn't.

It actually made me happy and smile more.

I thought,
Man, have I really gone insane?

Still, hosting a news show
was your dream.

It was my dream.

Actually,

it still is.

My real dream is to report
the truth to the world and be honest.

That's what makes me happy.
I've realized that now.

Then why did you turn it down?

You're home.

Yeah.

Is Yeong-won okay?

Of course not.

He's your boyfriend.
Shouldn't you be with him?

A middle-aged man's girlfriend
staying at his mother's funeral all day?

It could make some people gossip.

Why would you worry about that?

I don't.

My makeup got smudged.
I'm going to fix myself up and go back.

Does Yeong-won...

talk to you about getting married?

What are you talking about?
Don't be silly.

Did you have dinner?

I just grabbed something small.

What?

-Why do you have fried chicken?
-You said you didn't eat.

How sweet of you.

I didn't have an appetite, but the chicken
my boyfriend got me sure tastes good.

What made you lose...

What's the matter, Woo-ju?

Do you want to get married?

What? Wait... If we...

What comes to your mind
when you hear that?

I think about how much I love you,
and I feel some sense of responsibility.

I feel like we'd be able to get through
anything together...

My mom.

That my mom would have to live
by herself without me.

I'm sure my mom would
think about me first too.

Is your mother

getting married?

What? Does she think
I'm going to stop her if she wants to?

She's so old-fashioned.

My mom and I are a little different
from other moms and daughters.

We saved each other's lives.

We wouldn't have survived
if we didn't have each other.

You appear to be
an ordinary mom and daughter duo.

I don't know
what my mom wants to do exactly.

You said you shouldn't hide anything
from the person you love.

That you shouldn't have to.

Try being honest with her first.

Thanks to someone, I tried that,
and it's not that difficult.

-Are you going back to work soon?
-Yeah, tomorrow.

Gu-won, you must be sad.

Nope. You have no idea how much she nags.

Mom, I want you to work. Really.

You wouldn't leave my side at home.

That's because
I thought you might be bored.

You hurt my feelings.

Give me my phone. Use yours.

But mine is for kids, and it's no fun.

Mom, will you buy me a new phone? Please?

You are a kid.

Oh, Mom.

I won't play with you anymore then.

Hang out with your friends instead.

I have no friends.
I'm going to hang out with you.

You bug me.

Give me back my phone!

Don't go through stuff.

Stay for lunch. I made dumplings.

Okay.

CAPTAIN YEON

Hello.

WANT TO HANG OUT?
MADAME ON

What? Gu-won...

God.

I'm sorry. Gu-won pulled a prank.

Oh, I see.

Well, then I should go.

-You need a haircut.
-Sorry?

Have a seat.

Goodness.

It's dangerous if you move,
so stay put, okay?

We'll go have some dumplings.

I got some nice new machines,

but you haven't been coming to the gym.

Because you always
make me do difficult stuff.

Well, Yeon.

You just don't have muscles.

You're all skin and bones.

But, Un-baek,

you said I was cute.

Oh, you are...

still cute, of course.

Then, when we're done here...

do you want to hang out?

Sure. I'd love to.

Are you busy?

Yeah.

I'm busy too.

So what?

How about a drink?

No.

Are you upset?

Yeah.

LET'S HAVE SOME KAOLIANG LIQUOR

Oh, for God's sake!

It's just your bad luck.

Mom.

Yeah?

If Yeong-won wants to get married,

you should.

I know you like him a lot.

What's with all this marriage talk
all of a sudden?

I'm too old to get married now.
It's gross.

You didn't get to do anything in
your twenties and thirties because of me.

You should date and get married.

Do whatever you want to do.

There's nothing I want to do. I'm done.

I'm happy with my life now.

Nothing to complain about.

Why are you always happy with everything?

Listen to you.

You're on another level of crazy today.

Everything you've done
is to make things easier for me.

There's nothing you want to do?
That can't be true.

Why would you lie?

Do you think I wasn't prepared to do that
when I took you in?

You saved my life,
so I knew I had to give you a better one.

I thought making you happy
would make me feel like

I'd done at least
one good thing in my life.

Satisfied?

That's exactly why I can't do anything
but smile in front of you.

Because I feel like I can't be unhappy.

What?

What's the matter with you?

You weren't even like this as a teenager.

I should've just
told you everything back then.

You and I were both being foolish.

So what? Are you going to run away?

Mom, I'm being serious here.
Why would you say that?

What should I say then?
"I'm sorry I lived my life that way"?

"I didn't realize how you felt"?

That's not what I'm saying.

-Where are you going?
-I don't know.

Hey.

Things look different...

You got rid of most of the liquor.

All the locks are gone.

Good for you.

Let's drink.

Here?

Where else?

Can I go in there?

Wow, so you've got
absolutely nothing in here.

Did you think there'd be a safe
or something?

Having nothing.

That's the biggest secret indeed.

Should I start up a business?

What?

"Fried chicken
made by your ideal son-in-law." No.

"Noodles made by your ideal son-in-law."
Don't you think that might work?

But perhaps,
no one would call me that now.

You're being ridiculous.

I've watched my dad's businesses fail
my whole life.

It's not for everybody.

Then what should I do with my life now?

Do you know what the funny part is?

I was the one who walked away
from everything,

but I still found myself
watching my shows.

It's absurd, isn't it? Why do I care?

Because you like your job.

I got panic disorder doing what I like.
Who would understand that?

So what if no one does?

Would that make you not like it anymore
or make your problems go away?

Stop thinking about others
and get better first.

After that, you can sell fried chicken
or noodles or whatever.

I'm going to make a comeback.

When I'm all better,

I'm going to do what I like again.

If you've already made your decision,
why did you even ask?

I just wanted to whine about it
to a friend, okay?

If I do what I like
and fall flat on my face,

can I come and whine about it too?

I like it here.

MY WOO-JU

I ran away from home.

I've got to go deal with
a runaway delinquent.

Huh? Do you patrol your neighborhood now
or something?

It's a special operation.

You scared me.

Drinking alcohol
and running away from home?

I should arrest you.

Have you been drinking too?

Yeah. A little.

That's good.

It would've been embarrassing
if you were sober.

Why did my delinquent adult Ms. On Woo-ju
run away from home so late at night?

I had a fight with my mom.

You did? Tell me what happened.

Well, it wasn't exactly a fight.

I just got upset
and took it out on her, I guess.

I've never lashed out at her before,

but guess what? It felt really good.

It's all so embarrassing.

How do I go home and face her? Man.

Here's how.

You'll play on the swing while drunk,
hang out with your boyfriend for a while,

and then go home.

Yeah?

I know you're feeling down,
but can I tell you some good news?

Oh, yeah. What is it?

I'm going to give it a try.

My dream that I haven't given up.

I think I can do it now.

Thanks to somebody,
now I have the courage to try.

I hope your dream comes true, Ki-baek.

Wish me luck.

Good luck.

-Can you push a little harder?
-All right.

Harder?

Hold on tight.

What do you mean?

Father is quite angry.

God, I'm hungry.

I'm starving.

Are you all right?
You should come with me.


You mean girl. You get me all upset
and crawl in at this hour?

Well...

That's right.

Raising you, I kept myself from

doing what I wanted
to give you your best chance. So what?

Well, I'm just saying
you shouldn't do that anymore.

I chose to do that, just like how
I'm choosing to live my life this way now.

Who are you to tell me to date
or get married?

-You're lying.
-Did you say I'm lying?

-Lying?
-Ouch.

I thought you were finally growing up.

Why are you acting like a teenager?

I just want you to do all the things
you want to do from now on.

Look at that.

He hasn't even mentioned marriage.

-So who am I supposed to marry?
-What?

Myself?

He hasn't proposed?

No.

No way!

What?

It's heavy. Take it easy.

-I'm off.
-Jeong-heon, wait.

Are you sure you'll be okay?

Why wouldn't I be?

Tomorrow, your panic disorder and hiatus
will be all over the news.

That was my idea.

Exactly. I'm asking
if you're really okay with that.

Take good care of my fan club.

I'll see you.

When will you be back?
You bought a one-way ticket.

I don't know.

Jeong-heon!

I'll miss you.

-You're being gross.
-I am.

Bye.

Take care of yourself!

I HAVE THE BEST DAD

Let's get started.

Okay.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome to EHGS, Eat Healthy, Get Strong.

I'm Yoon Ji-hu.

I'll dig right in.

Boy, this looks delicious.

Here's an egg.

Oh, right.

Yes. I see.

Right.

All right, Chief.

I understand. Bye.

Oh, my God!

Wait a minute.

This is too embarrassing.

COUPLE'S PARADISE 2
LOOKING FOR NEWCOMERS

You guys are being silly,
and it's k*lling me.

Come on, let me call Woo-ju.

-Don't.
-What do you want to do then?

Let's just wait. Woo-ju is not an idiot.

It's like you don't know her at all.

She's been like that for over a decade.

People don't change so easily.

What?

Yeon. Ha-young.

I need your help.

Laundry Therapy. I really want to do this,
but I've got nothing.

I acted all tough
in front of Min-gu and I-na.

I sent them home
when they offered to help.

But I have to do this.
I really think I can.

The chief came by earlier.

-What?
-She told you to get things started.

You heard?

I've been waiting for you to come
and beg for my help.

Would that be okay?

I mean, you're the head writer
of Couple's Paradise.

I already passed it on
to Kim So-jeong's team.

What?

You didn't come to us

even when you were about to drown.

We were mad at you for that,
so we waited.

You quit the show too?

That's right, I did.

Guys.

Hi, I'm here for a job interview.

Min-gu. I-na.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have done that.

-We're family.
-Get a hold of yourselves.

This is the beginning.

If we don't get better ratings than
Couple's Paradise, our lives will be hell.

Doing laundry is not my thing though.

I even dry-clean my cotton T-shirts.

What?

How about Dry-Clean Therapy instead?

Sure. Anything you say.

I'll wash that foul mouth of yours too.

I'm meeting with Sinsang Electronics
tomorrow.

Okay.

-We'll need two mobile laundry trucks.
-That's right.

I-na and Min-gu,
draw up a list for casting.

-All right.
-All right, got it.

I promise I'll do a really good job.

Obviously.

Everyone on our team is good at their job.

Sparta!

-Woot, woot!
-Woot, woot!

-Woot, woot!
-Woot, woot!

-Woot, woot!
-Woot, woot!

-Woot, woot!
-Woot, woot!

-Woot, woot!
-Woot, woot!

Thank you.

This is for the website and PR material.

All right, let's start.

One, two, three.

Let's try a different pose.

Nice.

All right. Yeah, that's good.

Sure, of course.

Let me know if there's a product you need.

All right. Let's sell these out today!

Can I take a picture with you?

He looks good in pictures too!

Go on. All right, take pictures.

Goodness, you're going to tire him out.

Make it quick, people. My son is busy.

He's got to go
to his news show, okay? Hurry.

I've got to hurry.

Got to go.

-Going out?
-Yes, to the airport.

Are you going on a trip?

I told you so many times.
I'm picking someone up.

Oh, right.

New blouse?

Yes, it is. Nice, isn't it?

It's nice.

I think he's going to propose.

What?

Oh, come on.

Save yourself the trouble of getting
disappointed and threatening him.

Just settle down.

We're going to Jeju Island.
The blue night of Jeju Island.

I can feel it.

If he acts lukewarm again...

You could propose to him.

That's why I got this.

I'm going to propose to him.

What?

Good luck.

-I'm off.
-Bye.

I heard something really funny today.

With your superpower?

-Yes.
-What is it?

No, really?

-No way. Your homeroom teacher?
-Yes.

Wow.

I'll tell you if I hear more.

Promise? You have to tell me.

You're the only one
who listens to me, you know.

My mom doesn't believe in my superpower.

I believe in it.

Oh, hey. Are you busy this Saturday?

Saturday? No, I'm not busy.

Can you do me a favor then?

See you later. Bye.

MR. SONG IS ON THE MOVE
NEWS FROM THE SCENE

All right.

Ready, action.

All the latest
from life's humble yet heartfelt scenes.

Welcome to Mr. Song Is on the Move,
News from the Scene
. I'm Song Ki-baek.

Following up on last week, let's discuss
the price gouging at Bbaengdeok Market.

Opposition to the views of last week's
consumer representative has emerged.

Today, we have a representative
from the Market Merchant Association.

Hello.

Hi. I have been running a restaurant
called Bbaengdeok's here

at the Bbaengdeok Market
for the last 20 years.

Well... About the price gouging...

We...

I don't think I can do this.

You said you could do this.
What's with the stutter?

When we talked yesterday,

you made some really good points.

You can just talk like that.

Here's an idea.
How about we talk over some rice wine?

This is a news show. Is it okay?

We're not that kind of news show.

We've come all the way here
to hear your thoughts.

If you stop here,
you won't be able to sleep.

You said you'd do whatever it takes
to save the market.

That's right. You're right.

Mr. Seong, please get us some rice wine
and a couple of glasses.

Okay.

We made some acorn jelly in the morning.
Would you like some?

Oh, sure. That'd be awesome.

I'll go get it.

All right. Thanks.

Please have a glass
and loosen up a little.

Gee. This is hard.

Isn't being in front of cameras
nerve-racking?

SEONHO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
TALENT SHOW

Gu-won said he hoped we could all be here.

I think it was last year.

He bawled because his mom had work
and no one came.

-He did?
-Yes.

He's always fine by himself at the salon,
so I thought he was a mini-adult.

He's a child.
There's no such thing as a mini-adult.

This is nice.
It feels like I'm raising a kid again.

-Ki-baek.
-Over here.

-Oh, hey.
-Hello.

I didn't know you guys would be here.

Thank you.

Gu-won is going to be so happy.

I did his makeup. He looks incredible.

He does? Let's go inside.

-Yes, let's go.
-Let's go.

Yeah, let's go.

JUNG GU-WON
LET'S GO

Look, it's Gu-won.

Hello. I'm Jung Gu-won
from grade three, class five.

Once upon a time, there lived a liar lion
in the faraway Lion Land.

Cheese.

One day, a rabbit came to the lion.

-Hello, Lion.
-Hello, Rabbit.

Lion, your mane looks amazing.

Would you like to enter
the Coolest Animal Contest?

What? No.

I've never left this town before.

Don't worry. I got you.

I'm sure you'll be great.

I can't do it.

-You can.
-No, I can't.

-Come with me.
-No.

-Come on.
-No!

-Come on, let's go!
-I said no!

Wait for me!

I really want you on the show.

People trust you. You're perfect.

We're headed in different directions.

How dare he lie to my face?

Song Ki-baek.

There's something about him.

-Get out of my sight!
-You'll fall!

The lion followed the rabbit
and entered the Coolest Animal Contest.

COOLEST ANIMAL CONTEST

-Good luck!
-Thanks!

It was the lion's turn.

Roar!

I'm the coolest lion!

At that moment...

My mane!

My goodness. Oh, dear.

Poor little guy.

The lion's mane was fake!

The lion tricked us.

The lion is a liar!

-Lion!
-Go away!

Lion.

I told you I didn't want to do this!

But what can I do right now?

I'm sick! That is what the doctor said!

Mr. Song Ki-baek. Are you all right?

Do you think I can host a news show?
I mean, in this state.

Lion, I'm sorry.

Don't follow me!

The rabbit felt terrible, blaming herself
for revealing the lion's secret.

A lion without a mane.

Everybody will make fun of me
and hate me now.

You can still be a cool lion
even without a mane.

Liar. I'm nothing without my mane!

Then the rabbit came and said...

Protect your heart. You're the only one
here who can protect yourself.


You said I was your switch. So use me.

I'm sure there's something
you can do well without a mane.


I'm right here by your side.

Let's do this together.

Do you think I can do it?

Absolutely.

Listen. Let's give this a shot.

Help! Help me!

Help me!

-Roar!
-The hyenas are trying to eat me!

You have to save your friend!

I have to hurry,
but my mane is too heavy, and I can't run.

Then take the mane off.

You can do this!

Okay.

Roar!

Roar!

-Run!
-Run!

Are you all right?

Thank you, Lion.

You're the coolest lion I've ever seen.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Your bravery and kind heart
are so much cooler than a nice mane.

Thank you so much.

You're awesome. Awesome!

Ouch, that stings.

The lion saw the rabbit's small feet
covered in wounds.

Rabbit, why didn't you tell me
you were hurting?

I don't like to make anyone worry.

I'm a rabbit, and I'm nice to everyone.

You can cry when you're hurting.

Sometimes, crying makes you forget
that you're hurting.

You gave me the courage
to take off my mane.

I want to give you courage too.

On Woo-ju,
you look really pretty when you smile.


But you look very pretty
even when you're not smiling.

So just do what you want.

Smile when you want to,
and cry when you feel like it.

I'll be right by your side,
just like today.

The rabbit decided to be brave too.

But I...

I'm not okay at all.

I thought the only way for me to survive
was to deck myself out with lies


and hide my true feelings.

The more I hid, the lonelier I felt.

Rabbit, try this on.

Okay.

How do I look?

You look so cute and super cool.

-Really?
-Yeah!

Oh, Lion. Look over there.

Why?

Don't bottle it up and hide it.

Be brave and say it out loud.

Say you're exhausted and afraid.

I'm now happy without a mane!

Tell people you like them and love them.

That lion resembles you, don't you think?

Yeah.

Are you crying?

Well, it's so touching.

So, did the lion throw away
his precious fake mane?

All right.

He should throw it away.

Actually, the lion hid his fake mane
in a safe place.

Because the lion might want to wear
a nice mane from time to time.

He certainly might.

But the lion no longer wears the mane
to hide his true self.

That's right.

Because the lion is not a liar anymore.

Lion, I want to go see
what's beyond the field over there.

Will you come with me?
I'd be too scared to go by myself.

The rabbit has also learned how to ask

for her friends' help
without hiding her feelings.

Should I go or not?

Well, all right. Let's go together.

The lion and the rabbit
remained good friends,

living happily together for many years.

-Yay! Let's go!
-Yay! Let's go!

YOU'RE THE BEST

-Terrific!
-Great job!

Attention. Bow.

-Bye!
-Bye!

-Way to go, Gu-won!
-Great job!

Bravo!

LET'S GO, GU-WON

Awesome!

Here you are, Ki-baek.

Aren't you going to go?

It was just a children's play,
but it hit me pretty hard.

Do you want to go up to the stage?

Yeah?

-It's nice.
-Yeah.

You smile so beautifully these days.

-What?
-You look comfortable.

Different from when I first met you.

Oh, well... You look different too, Woo-ju.

Do I?

Mr. Lion, do you want to try on the mane?

No, forget it.

Are you serious?

Yeah. Here.

Let me see.

You look adorable.

MY UNIVERSE

The most important
and decisive moments of my life,

you were in every single one of them.

The universe is vast and eternal.

Please be my universe
for a long, long time.

Who engraved the outside of the ring?

What is this, The Lord of the Rings?

You can't see it if it's on the inside.

I did the same with mine.

I used to pretend I was fine
no matter how I was actually feeling.

You're the first person
I could be honest with.

Thank you.

Is someone there?

What?

What's going on?

What are you doing? The show's over.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Wait, you look familiar.

Hi, I'm Song Ki-baek.

This is the woman I love very much,
and I just proposed to her.

Please turn off the lights
when you leave.

Okay.

He already turned all the lights off,
so what did he mean...

What?

Wow.

It's pretty.

Don't you think
you were being too honest?

Well, I love you.
How can I possibly hide it?

You're right.
When you're in love, you can't hide it.

FRANKLY SPEAKING

Mr. Song Ki-baek!

Why do you keep showing up?
Don't come up here!

-Go away!
-Don't move!

I said, don't come near me!

-I should enjoy some luxury for a change.
-This is my fight.


-Hey!
-Hey!


-Schisandra flowers.
-They mean, "Let's meet again."


-Did you poop?
-No, I did not.

Flutter, flutter
Quack, quack


Yes!

-Bye!
-Bye!
