OUR STICKY LOVE

-This is it.
-Oh?

Goodbye, Go Eun-sae.

What are you saying?
Where am I going all alone?

-[boat engine revs]
-[gasps]

Jang Tae-ha? Jang Tae-ha, Jang Tae-ha!

-Jang Tae-ha!
-[music turns dramatic]

Jang Tae-ha!

Jang Tae-ha. Jang Tae-ha!

-[gasps]
-[music fades]

[Eun-sae exhales]

[groans]

Why did I have such a weird dream?

It's not weird.

What about our wedding?

Are we not setting a date?

I guess it's not that weird.
He doesn't think I'm the one for him.

[poignant music plays]

[Coach] Now that her memory's returned,
the show is over.

Acting like you and she were together,

starting tomorrow, that has to end.

[music fades]

[door creaks]

Are you okay?

Don't act like you care about me.

I know that you don't care.

Then you remember everything?

I know what kind of person
that Jang Tae-ha really is.

I know everything.

Yes.

So, what are you gonna do now?

Now that it's all out there.
Are you gonna be honest?

I know how confusing this is.

I'm sorry if you regret
the time we spent together.

Pretending to be your boyfriend was
the best thing I could do to protect you.

I couldn't leave you alone.

Why not?

Because you pitied me?

I know I lost my memory,
but I didn't want to be treated like that.

You should have just left me alone.

As you may know,
you're gonna have to leave.

-[melancholy music plays]
-I've found somewhere safe for you.

You can go next week.

I know it's hard,
but stay here until then.

Sorry for everything.

[gasps]

I guess it's true
that people can change overnight.

I've just gone back to being myself.

[breathes shakily]

It's just so hard to believe any of this
so I'm going to ask you again.

Was everything you did for me…

Was everything you said all just a lie?
None of it was ever real?

Yeah.

Then it was all an act to you?

Yeah.

Go Eun-sae.

[gasps, yelps]

Why did you have to…

Get a grip, Go Eun-sae!

This isn't the time to get angry.

It's time for you to leave.

[gasps]

Just wait. I'll get first aid.

[breathes shakily]

[Eun-sae cries]

JUNGANG PHARMACY

[sighs]

Go Eun-sae?

[music fades]

Go Eun-sae!

Go Eun-sae!

[exhales]

[cell phone dials]

[Coach] If she has her memories back,
she should be scared.

Where could she have gone to?

You don't think she went
to the Seoul Prosecutors' Office, do you?

A lot of Seoul is Baek Sang-gil's
territory, so it'd be dangerous.

She didn't take her phone with her.

I think the fastest way to find her

would be to check the CCTVs
at the village entrance.

But we can't report her missing
to check those cameras because--

Hey, hey. You don't need
to worry about that.

You know the chief of police substation?
I've been drinking with him for ten years.

[Maeng-suk] Is there a party going on?
Why are there so many of you?

-But Eun-sae is…?
-Have you seen her by chance?

[all] Hm?

Why would you ask us that?
The three of us are here to cheer her up.

Cheer her up?

[scoffs] There's no such thing as a secret
in a tiny village like this.

I heard she was drinking like a fish
at Daepo pub yesterday.

All because someone
apparently decided to hurt her feelings.

What?

-[sighs] I can't believe this.
-All right!

I shall teach you a lesson
as someone who's older. Tae-ha, you!

You shouldn't do that!

You can't just feed a woman a spoonful
of cheap sympathy then break her heart

when you didn't even love her.

Holding her hand all the time
and treating her like a princess!

You know what that is?

-That's called deceit!
-[Maeng-suk] That's right.

Why does it sound like Muhammad Ali
got his butt kicked over here, huh?

What did Tae-ha do to make you say
"a spoonful of sympathy and deceit"?

-[Geum-hyang] What?
-Wait a minute.

-What are you all talking about?
-Uh…

What are you even saying?

Wait, it's not true?

I guess it's not. Well…

We just thought that's what it was,
so that's what we told her.

We didn't want Eun-sae
to look like a fool or something.

So, what did you tell her exactly?

-[Maeng-suk] Well…
-[Hui-ja] We just…

Um, Tae-ha, you said you weren't
going to marry her, didn't you?

[Maeng-suk] Right.

She had no memory nor had a place to go,
so you're letting her stay out of pity.

You said you didn't
even see her as a woman.

Uh, what?

-Oh no.
-[Maeng-suk] Isn't that why you fought?

Yeong-sil, who owns that pub,
said that Eun-sae kept on saying,

"Why did you do that to me
when you had no intention of marrying me?"

[Coach] Oh, come on.

Oh, Eun-sae, no.

Then she wasn't drinking yesterday
because her memory had returned?

[sighs]

GUJIN-g*n OFFICE

[Eun-sae] Hello.

Hi. What can I do for you?

Well, I'm an unidentified person
with no relatives.

Due to amnesia,
I have no knowledge of my identity.

My fingerprints were…

[man] Oh dear.

This is why I can't be identified.

I would like to go
to a government facility

that assists individuals like myself.

For Pete's sake.

So, this was all a misunderstanding?

You were wrong. They were wrong.

This whole conversation occurred because
of a misunderstanding. Are you serious?

-Oh.
-We're wrong?

-A misunderstanding?
-[Maeng-suk] How could--

Oh, hey, hey. Where… Where are you going?

-We have to check the CCTVs.
-Oh, right, right.

[dog barks]

[dog whimpers]

[uneasy music plays]

[dog whines]

[Maeng-suk] It's Eun-sae.
She's getting in a taxi.

[Hui-ja] Yeah.

[Geum-hyang] Huh?

-That's Dal-su's taxi, isn't it?
-It is.

Well, don't just stand there.
Hurry up and call Dal-su!

-[Hui-ja] Good idea.
-[Maeng-suk] Oh dear.

-[energetic rock music plays]
-Oh my, Tae-ha! Hey, hey, hey!

It's important to go and get your fiancée,
but we still have many years left to live!

Oh, I still need to see
my little Pil-seung get married!

[screaming]

[screaming]

[music fades]

[Hui-ja] Oh, Tae-ha. Oh dear.

-[g*ng-rok] Tae-ha!
-[Hui-ja] That was scary.

[Maeng-suk] Oh, it's locked.
They're closed, Tae-ha.

[women panting]

-What's wrong, what's wrong?
-[Geum-hyang] What? What is it?

-[energetic rock music resumes]
-Tae-ha.

[women shriek]

-Whoa!
-Whoa.

Whoa.

How did he do that?

[music fades]

So if you know Ji-won,
then I'm sure you also know where she is.

Am I right? Do you know where Ji-won is?

Let me ask you this first.

What relationship do you have with her?

[uneasy music plays]

Oh, so you don't even have
all the facts yourself?

Please answer my question.

[sighs]

My girlfriend is Ji-won.

She's been missing for over four weeks.

Do you have any proof?

Swipe through that.

If you don't believe me
after seeing these photos,

you can go to the Prosecutors' Office.

-Prosecutors' Office?
-[Chi-hyeon] Yes.

Go Ji-won's relationship to me
is known by most of the security guards.

As well as the other prosecutors
and investigators.

A prosecutor…

So, where is she?

[man sighs]

[music fades]

Gujin doesn't have any facilities.
You have to go all the way to Dangjin.

Before you go to a self-support center,

you'll stay at a homeless shelter
for a few days.

[sighs] How did you
lose all your memories like that?

Usually you'd have at least one person

you could rely on
in a situation like this.

Do you really have no one?

[sniffles]

-[brakes squeal]
-Oh my!

[man groans]

[car door closes]

[poignant music plays]

[gasps]

What was that about?

If you drive like that,
you can k*ll somebody.

I'm this woman's husband.

She's not alone.

I'm here for her.

-[man] Huh?
-Her aunties are here too!

And a little brother
who listens to her very well.

And a brother who's kind of old.

Also a friendship
that transcends generations.

[gasps]

[Eun-sae] What's going on here?

What are you all doing?

[Maeng-suk] Tae-ha risked all of our lives
to come here.

He was driving the car
like it was a roller coaster.

[Geum-hyang] He jumped over the county
office gate, taller than a totem pole.

I honestly thought that he was gonna fly.

But why did you do all that?

Why do you think?
He was worried that he'd lose his wifey.

[music fades]

[Eun-sae] I don't understand.

You told me to go away.
You told me to leave.

[sighs] It was because of us.
It was our fault.

We shouldn't have gotten involved and
caused you to misunderstand each other.

Sorry.

You weren't just letting me stay
because you felt bad?

The dog.

The dog. He… He was referring to the dog.

Did you believe that?

You said you didn't even see me
as a woman.

He meant Su-ji.

[poignant music resumes]

I'm so nervous I can't breathe.

Even now.

You told me we'd never tie the knot.

'Cause the relationship we have
is only based on what I've told you.

If your memories come back…

When all of your memories return,

even then,

if you'll still accept me…

then,

you decide if we should… marry.

Jang Tae-ha…

you don't hate me?

I really don't need to leave you?

Go Eun-sae…

Let's go.

Let's go home.

[cries]

[Eun-sae cries]

[Eun-sae] I really thought

that the world was going to end.

I wondered how I could live without you.

I felt like I was in hell.

[Eun-sae cries]

-I'm so silly. Why am I crying? Oh gosh.
-[Geum-hyang sniffles]

Right? Oh! Oh, what's with you?

-[g*ng-rok cries]
-Why are you crying?

So I cry when I see someone else cry.

[Geum-hyang and g*ng-rok cry]

[sobs]

[music fades]

[Hui-ja] Their hands
are going to get all sweaty.

[laughter]

[Maeng-suk] Ooooh!

[aunties laugh]

[gentle music plays]

[Eun-sae] Wait.

What is all of this?

He's called the "Choi Soo-jong
of Taffy Village" for a reason.

-It looks like it.
-Don't just stand there? Call Dal-su.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's a relief.

-It's a good thing she took Dal-su's taxi.
-Oh my, oh my!

What's this?

-[Jeong-hwa] What is all this?
-What is this?

-Oh!
-There are so many.

[g*ng-rok gasps]

Did you order these
in the morning yesterday,

literally right after she said
she liked light pink roses?

[gasping]

And you suspected Tae-ha?

-Oh, you guys…
-So pretty.

Oh, Dal-su needs
to pick up the phone soon.

You didn't do this because I said
light pink roses were pretty, did you?

You said you liked them.

Oh.

I can't believe this.

I was just talking about a simple bouquet.

[Coach] This guy doesn't know
how to do anything in moderation.

When he was out there boxing,
he only won gold medals.

-[chuckles]
-[Coach] And always last academically.

-Oh no!
-[laughter]

Ah, Coach, come on.

These flowers are so pretty.
You guys should take a picture together!

[Maeng-suk] Let's do it!
They're so pretty.

So pretty. You two should dress up
like a bride and groom and take a picture.

[Geum-hyang] You should.

Could we do that?
I'd like to take one with you.

[music fades]

[g*ng-rok] All right.

I'm gonna take the picture now. Ready?

Will the groom and bride
please take each other's hands?

[Hui-ja] My goodness.
This is really happening!

[Maeng-suk] What are you waiting for?

[g*ng-rok] Taking it now. One, two, three.

-[Maeng-suk] There it is.
-[g*ng-rok] That looks great!

Okay, now I want the two of you
to look at each other.

-[Geum-hyang] Like newly-weds!
-[g*ng-rok] Look at each other.

Move closer. Look at each other.

Okay, Hyung, put your hands out like this,

and then, Noonim,
put your hands on top of his.

Great. Now look at each other lovingly.

One, two, three!

[gentle music plays]

[giggles]

-Beautiful.
-[Tae-ha] Good night.

-Have a good one. Have a good one.
-You guys look great.

-Good job, Tae-ha.
-Thank you. Bye

-[Grandma] All right.
-Bye, Song-Wol.

-Congratulations!
-Congrats.

-They're so cute together.
-Isn't it?

-Have a good night
- Hold on a minute.

So now that the, uh, misunderstanding
has been cleared up,

and this young man is out of your hair,

tonight will be
your first real night together.

[Maeng-suk] I think so!

[Hui-ja] I hope you don't wake the entire
neighborhood in the middle of the night!

Oh, you're crazy.
What are you even saying right now?

Tae-ha, just be a man
and have a little confidence, all right?

Tonight, your bed is not just
a piece of furniture. It's a stage!

-It's all about having confidence!
-Okay, let's go.

Please stop, okay?
We'll figure it out ourselves.

-[Hui-ja] Huh?
-She said they'll figure it out!

-[Geum-hyang] That's what they said!
-Okay, good night, everyone.

-Get home safe.
-[Tae-ha] Good night.

[laughter]

-[Hui-ja] Oh, you're so ridiculous!
-[sighs] Why are they like that?

[Tae-ha exhales]

[chuckles softly]

-[lively music plays]
-[Eun-sae clears throat]

Well, then…

Yeah, then…

[Eun-sae] Mm.

Do… Do you wanna get a drink?

[chuckles softly]

[Eun-sae] Whoa! You had that on you
the whole time?

Only a total drinker
would carry a thing like this around

just to drink all alone.

[chuckles] I drank that with you.

You did? When did you…

In Japan. Watching cherry blossoms.

Blossoms?

Wow! This place is so beautiful.

[Eun-sae gasps]

Oh, it sounds so lovely.

[sighs] I wanna get my memories back soon.

It's so unfair that you're the only one
who remembers all those fun things we did.

[Eun-sae sighs]

That's perfect.

[Eun-sae giggles]

[music fades]

Though, uh, what was it about what I said
that you misunderstood?

Huh?

All those harsh things
you said to me earlier.

You sounded so serious.
I was scared it was true.

The time that we spent in the village,

it always sounded like you hated it.

That's not true.

[gentle music plays]

Someday, when time has passed,
and all your memories come back,

even if you realize
you don't like me anymore,

I hope the time we shared

won't just be a painful memory to you.

[chuckles softly]

[Eun-sae] You must really like me,
Mr. Jang Tae-ha.

Seeing you worry about all that stuff
for no reason.

There's no way
that I would not like you though.

But why do you like me so much?

-You're p--
-Don't just say it's 'cause I'm pretty!

That's so cliché.

I was going to say
it's 'cause you're polite.

What is it? Say that again.

Well, it's true that you are.

You took care of Grandma
when I wasn't around.

And just a moment ago,

you called me "Mr. Jang Tae-ha."

[scoffs] No, come on! Stop joking around
and tell me why you really like me.

Come on, say it. [gasps]

[Eun-sae sighs]

You really have nothing to say?

I'm not sure.
I just… don't like other women.

It's only in front of you that I

get a little weird.

You know,

I do that too.

I get nervous too.

Whenever I'm with you.

You take my breath away.

[inhales]

You know what?
I like you more than Cha Eun-woo.

And the password for my new email address
will be "Jang Tae-ha."

The first face that I think of
every day when I wake up,

and the last one that comes to mind
before I sleep,

is Jang Tae-ha too. [giggles]

I like you.

So much.

[gentle ballad plays]

[music fades]

[tinkling]

[dog barks]

[vehicle approaches]

[Tae-ha] Gi-jun, what are you doing here?

Hey, what do you think you're doing?

-What?
-I know everything.

You're lying to Go Eun-sae
and deceiving her.

Go Ji-won is
an anti-corruption prosecutor from Seoul.

Explain yourself.

How'd you find out?

I just met
with someone named Gwak Chi-hyeon.

Go Eun-sae… I mean Go Ji-won.
He's looking for that woman.

How… How do you know about this guy?
How much did you tell him?

Does he know Go Eun-sae is here?

Answer my questions first. What's
going on? You do know this is ill*gal?

[sighs]

Gi-jun, I need to tell you something.

Excuse me, I need to see
Chairman Baek Sang-gil right now.

[tense music plays]

So then, you were supposed to k*ll her,
but you saved her.

And you pretended to be her boyfriend
to keep her safe for now?

And because she'd only agree to leave
Korea if her memories were fully regained,

you made sure she was treated.

Is that right?

So, they really just, like,
make you k*ll people?

That's crazy.

That guy, Gwak Chi-hyeon,
he works for Baek Sang-gil.

If he knows Go Eun-sae is alive, there's
a good chance he'll tell Baek Sang-gil.

Be honest. What did you say
to Gwak Chi-hyeon?

How much does he know?

Well…

I don't know why I did that, but I, uh…

[exhales]

So, where is she?

[music fades]

-I may have made a mistake.
-What?

Uh, the Go Ji-won I know,
uh, she's a different person.

[laughs] All of a sudden?
What do you mean?

[awkward music plays]

This Go Ji-won that I know…

The other Go Ji-won, I mean.

She's caused a lot of harm
to a lot of people,

so I was looking for her,

but it seems

that this was a different person
with the same name.

Then, how did you get my number?

Hm, so…

I had someone look
into Go Ji-won's potential acquaintances,

though I'm pretty sure
that the investigator made a mistake.

[laughs]

So, anyway, I don't know this person.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

No, wait! But, uh…

[sighs]

[music stops]

So you and I weren't that close,

and even though I was the top student
while you were dead last,

like polar opposites,

I know you're not a bad guy.

I wanted to hear
your side of the story first.

Uh, then I was going to decide what to do
and whether to call the authorities.

Well, thanks a lot.

-Seriously, Gi-jun. Thanks.
-Ah, well…

It's nothing.

But, hey,

if, uh…

Say Go Eun-sae never gets her memory back,
what are you going to do?

I'll have to force her to go.

But if I do,

Go Eun-sae will be devastated.

So I was wondering,

is there any way
to get her memory back sooner?

Yeah, but she's already starting
to see results through the treatment.

Like the fact
that she recalled Gwak Chi-hyeon.

From now on,

you have to make sure that she feels,
sees, and experiences things from her past

so that the memories trigger
in her consciousness. Can you do that?

And I was just curious about this, so…

What's with all of these,

um, flowers?

-[intriguing music plays]
-Huh?

Oh, these.

-Go Eun-sae said roses were pretty, so…
-[music stops]

Do women… like that kind of thing?

Huh?

Uh… Uh…

Ah, forget it. I'll get going.

-[Gi-jun clears throat]
-All right.

[Gi-jun] Can I take one of these?

Oh, sure. Take, um, as much as you want.

[Gi-jun] Oh, these are
kinda interesting. Pink roses.

[intriguing music plays]

[exhales]

[sniffs deeply]

Ah.

God damn.

[music stops]

He's pretty cool.

-A safety matter?
-[Chi-hyeon] Yes.

I'm sure that something
must be wrong with Prosecutor Go.

Someone testing the waters
and acting in her best interest

would have asked me something, right?

But this person
didn't ask me anything important.

What are the odds you're wrong
and it's a coincidence?

It's not. When he saw her photo,
there was definitely a reaction to it.

[uneasy music plays]

A matter of personal safety.

[Chi-hyeon] Maybe she got
seriously injured,

or maybe she got kidnapped by someone.

So that's why I came to see you, Chairman.

This is the phone number
of the person I met today.

Could you track it for me?

I'm sure that he's someone
currently connected to the prosecutor.

[music fades]

[Eun-sae] Oh, come on.

Of all days, why did I have to get drunk

and fall asleep
on such an important night of my life?

Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!

[inaudible dialogue]

Oh, right. I do remember last night.

Yeah, the atmosphere was really tense.

But why would the two of them
act like that?

[gasps]

-[exhales]
-[door opens]

Did they end up fighting over me?

[exhales]

-What the heck am I gonna do?
-You're up?

Jang Tae-ha. Dr. An was over here
last night, right?

-Yeah.
-[exhales]

How'd you know?

I woke up briefly and saw you two talk.

Jang Tae-ha, you don't need to worry.

I'll give him a few choice words.

[Eun-sae sighs]

WE UNDERSTAND YOUR FEELINGS

[Gi-jun] Just lean back comfortably.

-I can't be comfortable because of you.
-Huh?

I think I should say this
before we start the treatment.

Especially since you came
all the way to our house last night.

[awkward music plays]

I know that we've recently
gotten a lot closer.

After I got drunk, you carried me home,

and I know I haven't always behaved.

But that wasn't an… an invitation
for you to just cross the line like that.

[chuckles]

I am in a common-law marriage.

We're basically married even though
we haven't had our wedding yet,

and that's because I really…
really like him.

So I'm sorry, but we can continue

as patient and doctor going forward.

Did you drink again?
What are you talking about?

-What?
-Wow, this is…

Wow, this is so wrong. Wow.

Okay, where do I even start?

I'm sorry, uh,
but you're not my type at all.

I like women who look pure and innocent,

and who have eyes
that look like 8:20 on a clock.

But your eyes slant at about 9:13.

-Yeah, 9:13, that's it.
-[clock ticks]

Anyway, the truth is that I don't like
women who are too tall either.

I have a bad neck too, so I'm sorry.

Then why did you come over
and talk to Jang Tae-ha last night,

and looking up at him
like you were gonna pick a fight?

I was not looking up at him!

We were at the same eye level.
I'm not that short!

You were looking up at him like this!

Ms. Go Eun-sae, sit down. Okay?

-[Eun-sae] Wait.
-[Gi-jun] You need treatment.

[music stops]

Hm. All done. Let's go.

Have a good day.

[intriguing music plays]

[Gi-jun] I like women
who look pure and innocent,

and who have eyes
that look like 8:20 on a clock.

[music stops]

[Geum-hyang] Play a card.

-[Hui-ja] Woohoo! And here!
-[Geum-hyang] Oh, come on.

-Come on!
-Did you see that? See that?

-[Geum-hyang] What kind of hand?
-[squeals]

-[Geum-hyang] What's going on here?
-A double sweep. Two cards each.

Why is this happening? No, all the gwangs
are just going to you today.

You're getting all the ssang-pe cards too.
Is today your lucky day?

Exactly, I know. I wonder
what good thing will happen to me today.

Should I get a lottery ticket? [laughs]

I avoided the junk penalty.

Wait, isn't that Pil-seung?

[Geum-hyang] Oh my.

The way he's walking makes him look
like Lee Jung-jae from The Face Reader.

[Hui-ja] Huh?

[dramatic music plays]

[Hui-ja] Oh?

[music stops]

-[exhales]
-Let's go. Come on.

-No. Mom.
-Oh, shut your mouth.

[Pil-seung] No. Mom.

Why do you have to be a fist fighter?

I raised you for 17 years,

making sure you never got
a single scratch on your body,

and now you want me to watch
some scary punks smack you

on the side of your head?

I won't get hit. I'll do the hitting.

[sighs]

Okay. Let's say you do well,
earn a gold medal and all that.

What are you gonna do afterwards?

Who would hire
a guy who used to be a fighter?

Everyone will think you're an airhead
wherever you go.

-What if there's no air?
-What are you saying?

If I'm good at boxing, and fill my head,
no one could ever say that.

You're going to study now?

You're last place in your whole school.

If I do well on the next mock exam,
let me box.

Do you accept the deal or not?

[gasps]

-Oh!
-[Maeng-suk] What's wrong?

[intriguing jazz music plays]

-Is it a report card?
-[Geum-hyang] A report card?

[Maeng-suk] Yeah, it's Pil-seung's.
What place is he in?

Class rank… Fifth in the whole school.

Fifth in the whole school?

Oh, Pil-seung! Hui-ja!

-Wow!
-[Geum-hyang] There's no doubt about it.

-Yeah, it's the five from the gwang-five!
-[Maeng-suk laughs]

[music fades]

Fine. Go box, then.

[groans] How much did you want to do this
that you went from last to fifth?

I'm going to
the national competition this week.

Uh, well, can you get into
a national competition that easily?

-I applied for it three months ago.
-Oh.

-I considered going in secret.
-Hm.

Hey, but you've been studying so hard
that means you haven't had time to train.

No. I haven't taken a single day off.

[rock music plays]

Other than eating and pooping,

I studied and trained
like my life depended on it.

But now that you know, I want to ask
for your permission to go to this.

-[music stops]
-[sputters]

[Hui-ja] Uh…

Well, uh, all right.

A promise is a promise.

-Oh, fine. Do that too.
-Really?

[giggles]

But… I won't go.

I just can't

bear to see somebody
hitting you on your head over and over.

Don't even try to make me go.

Please look after him.

Well, I, uh…

[door slides shut]

I heard that Prosecutor Go
is actually alive.

And that she's holding a knife
to our throats.

[Baek] Hm.

How did you find that out?

When my former aide,
Gwak Chi-hyeon, made a mess,

then crawled back to life
from your clutches.

Do you think I didn't have someone
trace his whereabouts?

[chuckles]

Wow. I didn't know
our mayor was capable of that.

Gotta wonder why someone wearing silk
would get themself so dirty.

If you had just done your job,
I wouldn't have to!

You couldn't even handle
a rookie prosecutor.

And you're leaving a trail behind?
That doesn't sit right with me.

[tense music plays]

The party is trying to build me up
for a presidential run.

The momentum's good.

You're about to see me
move into the Blue House. Don't ruin it.

I put 11 dead bodies
under the foundation of that Blue House.

If I one day become a feral dog
and decide to dig up that land…

the bodies would be all over the news.

Do you think you could handle that?

So let's not waste time.

We don't need to sit here like dogs,
barking at each other.

I'm gonna find her.

[music fades]

-I'm going home, Coach.
-Okay. Good work.

-[Pil-seung] Goodbye.
-Bye-bye.

-Get home safe.
-[Pil-seung] Yes, sir!

Oh, Pil-seung is so dedicated.

It sure pays to be young.

Oh, right. I wanna go
cheer for Pil-seung at his fight.

Leaving the village is--

[Gi-jun] You have to make sure
that she feels, sees,

and experiences things from her past.

Okay. Let's go.

Really?

[giggles] Hooray!

Is that one… Is that yours?

Yeah. My first love found it.

[gentle music plays]

Why are you bringing up
your first love right now?

Do you wanna hit this
to blow off some steam?

Mention your first love one more time
and I'll show you how jealous I can be.

By the way, I went into your room for
a second yesterday and it was freezing.

No, it's not.

Yes, it is.

I don't want you to catch a cold so why
don't you sleep in my room from now on?

[scoffs]

Is that all you ever think about?

Oh, of course it is.
I only think about you all day long.

I'm not doing that.

[Eun-sae] Aww, come on! Why not?

I told you. I get nervous.

I need to prepare myself.

[Eun-sae groans quietly]

Fine.

Then I'll give you a few days
to prepare yourself.

Actually, I think
I've gained some weight recently.

I should prepare myself too.

You didn't gain weight. You're pretty.

You always know what to say, Jang Tae-ha.
You're the master of flirting.

[laughs] Be honest.
You've dated a lot of women, huh?

-It's not like that.
-What do you mean you haven't?

-I'll forgive you if tell me today.
-[chuckles]

You have to tell me now.
Honestly! [laughs]

BOXING ARENA

Unnis!

-Oh, hey, Eun-sae. [chuckles]
-[Geum-hyang] Jeong-hwa, over here.

-Okay, we're coming.
-[Eun-sae] What is all this?

-Oh!
-Well, we are Pil-seung's aunties.

We even changed his diapers.
This is the least we can do.

-[laughs]
-[Geum-hyang] Ah.

We were worried that people might think
we're a bunch of hillbillies.

Oh, who would look down on us
after seeing this?

We look like some kind of g*ng right now.

Oh, stop it!

[laughter]

Look, Pil-seung's coming out.
I think it's starting.

-Where?
-There!

[Geum-hyang] Pil-seung!
The pride of Gujin!

-Kim Pil-seung, my boy!
-Over here!

-[Maeng-suk] Pil-seung!
-[Geum-hyang] Whoo!

-It's starting,
-[Maeng-suk] Hey, Tae-ha.

[Coach] Are you good? You nervous?

-You got this.
-[Maeng-suk] Pil-seung!

To your corners.

[cheering]

Blue corner, ready? Red corner, ready?

-Taffy Fists!
-Box!

[bell rings]

[energetic rock music plays]

KO! Red corner wins by knockout.

Box!

FINAL

GUJIN HIGH, KIM PIL-SEUNG
VS YONGDEOK HIGH, CHOI WON-UK

[announcer] The final match
of the high-school boxing competition

will begin shortly.

[music fades]

Hey, Pil-seung, this is the last match.

You've been doing great so far.

Don't let your nerves get to you,
and stay focused. You can do this, okay?

-[bell rings]
-Box!

Go, Pil-seung!

[tense music plays]

Move your arms!

Move closer.

Good job, Pil-seung!

-Get off him. Get off him!
-[grunting]

[Won-uk grunts]

[man 1] What?

[music stops]

-[screaming]
-Oh sh*t!

[man 2] Excuse me. Please move aside.

[Pil-seung groans]

[man 2] Are you okay?

-[Pil-seung groans]
-[Coach] Pil-seung, are you okay?

[Pil-seung groans]

-[woman] What do we do?
-[Pil-seung groans]

Oh, come on,
who's managing the facilities around here?

Oh no.

This isn't the kind of bleeding
that'll stop soon.

It looks serious enough,
so we should end the match here.

It'll be ruled a loss by decision
for Kim Pil-seung.

-You can't!
-[Coach] What's that supposed to mean?

You should reschedule the whole thing!

According to the rules, only I can decide,
as the technical delegate,

whether to reschedule or rule it a loss.

-Rule it a loss?
-[Coach] We should reschedule the match.

Why can't you just find another day?

Oh come on, you know how it is.

You already know
how seriously complicated it is

to reschedule a match.

Then we can take legal action over this.

-What?
-Civil Act, Article 2 states that

the organizers of a sporting event
have a duty, in good faith,

to protect athlete health and safety
during a competition.

But in this case, not only was the athlete
injured due to the organizers' fault,

he's now at risk
of losing his chance at a gold medal.

That's right!

If you don't resolve this properly,
we will file a lawsuit against you

for a breach of duty
regarding injury and medical treatment.

-[Geum-hyang] That's right!
-[Maeng-suk] We'll sue!

[sighs]

[blade rasps]

Fine then. Just wait
in the locker room for now.

-[Maeng-suk] Wait?
-[Geum-hyang] What? This is ridiculous!

How long are we supposed to wait?

-Is he okay?
-Oh, Pil-seung, are you okay?

-[Tae-ha] He's got a wound there too.
-[Jeong-hwa] Oh, he's bleeding so much.

-[Maeng-suk] What if it leaves a scar?
-[Geum-hyang] I'm so upset.

[Maeng-suk] Poor kid.

Hey, Eun-sae. So, how did you know
so much about the law earlier?

Yeah, that's what I was saying.
You were like a prosecutor or a judge.

-[Maeng-suk] Yeah.
-Oh, I know.

I'm not sure,
but it just spilled out of my mouth.

It's possible that before I lost my memory
I was a pro…

[tense music plays]

-A pr…
-Huh?

[snaps fingers]

[Eun-sae] A pro…

A prodigy of some sort!

-[Maeng-suk] Yeah, you were amazing.
-[Geum-hyang] You're really, really smart.

-I'm properly scared.
-She could be a genius.

[coughs awkwardly]

-I wanna redo the fight today.
-You… You're in no condition to--

I can do it.

I don't want to get silver.
I want to earn gold today.

Let's help him do that, Coach.
His bleeding's basically stopped.

We should trust him to know his condition.

He was flowing really well
through the last match

so I'm sure he's got a good feeling.

BOXING ASSOCIATION OF KOREA
NO ENTRY

Excuse me. Hey!

We told you to wait for now.

We're discussing it
with the referees and officials,

so if you wait in the locker room,
we'll let you know.

Hey! I'm not putting a silver medal
around my fighter's neck like this!

And even if he loses and gets silver,
it's happening today!

All right? Do you hear me?

He's putting those gloves on and
getting in the ring today, no matter what.

Huh? Are you listening?

[tense music plays]

[banging on door]

[music fades]

What did they say?

Have a seat.

You sure… you can fight today?

[exhales]

Okay.

-Pil-seung, it's okay if you lose.
-[gentle music plays]

The fact that you're willing to continue,

to me, that already
makes you worthy of gold.

Got that, Pil-seung?

[exhales shakily]

But I need you to do me a favor.

Just be safe out there.

[women sigh]

[exhales shakily]

-[cheering]
-[referee] Blue corner, ready?

Red corner, ready? Box!

You got this.

-Pil-seung.
-Hey, Pil-seung! You got this!

[suspenseful music plays]

-[g*ng-rok] Go, Pil-seung!
-Taffy Fists!

That's it.

Oh!

-Turn. Keep turning!
-[g*ng-rok] Let's go, let's go!

Stay close!

-Come on!
-Stick to him. Use that corner!

Use your front hand.

[shrieks] Oh no!

-Block it. Guard.
-[snarls]

[dramatic music plays]

-[referee] Stop, stop!
-[cheering]

-Red, to your corner.
-Yeah!

One…

[gleeful laughter]

[referee] Two…

[sobs]

Three… KO! KO!

-[bell rings]
-Coach!

Red corner wins by knockout.

[cheering]

Pil-seung, you did great!

-[music stops]
-I know that guy! Oh, why are you crying?

Good job!

Pil-seung, you did great!

That was so great.

[poignant music plays]

[Pil-seung exclaims]

[Pil-seung panting]

[Coach] You did great. Good job.
That was great. Seriously, good job.

Great work. Congrats on the gold medal.

Coach!

Wait. Wait a second.

[music fades]

[poignant music plays]

[breathes heavily]

Why are you crying?

I won.

[sobs]

This is exactly why

I didn't want you
to do fighting competitions.

Oh, my son. [cries]

Look at your face.
My baby's handsome face!

[cries]

Did you really
have to go all the way to the end?

You could have waited
until you were better. [cries]

Was it really worth
shedding all that blood?

It's because of you.

If the match got moved,
you would have cried again.

Red corner wins by KO!

Advancing to the final, red corner.

Red corner wins by KO!

-[audience cheering]
-[sniffles]

But I had strength because I saw you.

That's why I won.

[cries]

Thanks for coming, Mom.

[cries]

You rascal.

You rascal!

You little rascal!

[sobs]

Why did I even give birth to you?

All right, okay, okay.

[cries]

What do you mean,
why did you give birth to me?

So you could see me
win a gold medal, right? Hm?

[Hui-ja cries]

-Agh!
-[Hui-ja] Good job, my baby.

I'm so proud of you, my son.

I didn't even know that you were…
were this amazing.

I'm sorry that I didn't even know. [cries]

It's okay. It's okay.

[g*ng-rok cries]

-[sighs]
-[g*ng-rok sobs]

[Maeng-suk] Crying again?

Young man, at this rate,
it's gotta be menopause, right?

[sobs]

You know that I'm still in my twenties.

[cries]

[Maeng-suk] Huh?

-He's in his twenties?
-[g*ng-rok sobs]

-[Pil-seung] I'm fine.
-Oh, don't do that. It'll hurt.

[Pil-seung] It doesn't hurt.
I'm a gold medalist.

[Coach] Hey, so are we having
a dinner party at Pil-seung's?

-Yeah, we are. Hui-ja should treat us.
-What are we eating?

[Jeong-hwa] Let's go home.

Oh, well, we should have some barbecue.

They look so happy.

It feels like I'm watching
a happy ending to a drama. [chuckles]

Don't you think? [laughs]

Hey! Wasn't I also
kind of like a character on TV?

But wasn't I kind of cool earlier?

So, why was that?
Did you remember something?

[inhales]

Mm. I don't really know
why I was acting that way.

I wonder if it could have been
something from my past.

Actually, I've felt kind of weird
since I came here today.

It's like I've been here before.

Is this the only boxing arena around here?

It's not.

But I like this one the most.

-Why?
-Because I met my first love here.

[gentle music plays]

That first love of yours
is getting really annoying to me.

[Eun-sae] It was nice to meet you,
future gold medalist.

Uh…

[sighs] What was his name again?

I want to remember it.

-Oh!
-What? Did you remember something?

Yes. Yeah, I think I met someone here
a really long time ago.

Does anything else come to mind?

[exhales]

Uh…

Hm.

Yeah.

I don't remember any details,

but I remember that guy, he was…

he was really handsome.

-What?
-He gave off good energy.

And also what else?

Oh, right, right, right. He said
he'd be a gold medalist in the future.

Yeah. And I kept looking back at him.
Maybe because I didn't wanna say goodbye.

I must have really liked that guy.
He was good looking.

[clears throat]

That's why you shouldn't
talk about your first love.

I may not remember him now,
but I had someone like that.

[chuckles softly]

[Tae-ha] Wait for me.

[gentle ballad plays]

-[chuckles]
-[Eun-sae laughs]

[Eun-sae] Mr. Jang Tae-ha!
I'm heading to work at the taffy shop.

[music fades]

[ominous music plays]

[dramatic music plays]

[scoffs quietly]

Is this your watch?

[scoffs]

[chuckles]
