Hey! You're not meeting a girl looking like that, right?
My 'Oppa' is going to pick me up.
It wasn't dating this time too. My name is Ho Goo. Kang Ho Goo.
What kind of name is that?
Don't you think dating should be a little different?
We recognized each other among all those people in a matter of moments.
A woman's green light is usually something ordinary.
Don't do anything.
If you really want to do something for her, then just spend a lot of money.
Wanting to see the sea is a woman's green light?
I envy you, Kang Ho Goo!
You'll have to wait and see until tomorrow.
- Christmas day. Return it to me then. - Okay.
Several months have passed.
Please sit here. Why does she want to meet on Christmas day?
It's been awhile.
Are you going somewhere?
Yeah.
Home.
What are you doing? There's an empty seat.
I couldn't... turn my face.
Because I'm afraid that what I just saw was real.
That it was reality.
Because I couldn't believe it. Because I didn't want to believe it.
I couldn't look at Do Hee.
From what I know, your stomach doesn't get big from hemorrhoids.
If so, then that's... without a doubt...
Have you been well?
It seems you're coming from somewhere far away.
Do Hee.
How have you been?
It seems like you're coming from somewhere too.
I just went to the hospital.
- Is it... - Yeah.
It's because of my baby.
I see.
She said... 'baby.'
She said... there's a baby in her stomach right now.
A baby is made when a man and woman makes love.
You can only get pregnant when a man and woman gets married.
- If that's the case, then Do Hee... - I'm getting off. See you.
Okay.
If that's the case...
Then what about me? I've been waiting for her for past six months.
What about me?
You idiot. Loser!
Ho Goo, you bastard!
Where is she?
Do Do Hee!
Let go of me! Let go of me!
- Come on! - This is unfair!
- This is so unfair right now! - Ho Goo!
This unfair!
Be quiet! Committing a crime is nothing to brag about!
What's wrong with you, mister?
You're the old man, not me!
- Mister, please! - Sir, please let him go!
Please don't arrest him! Please don't take him away!
My name is Ho Goo. Kang Ho Goo.
[Let's return the squid to it's proper place.]
Dad, it's over here!
He's over there.
- Ho Goo! Are you okay? - Ho Goo!
Ho Goo, are you okay?
- Dad. - That's right, it's Dad!
- What is going on here? Ho Goo! - Are you the guardian?
- Yes, I'm his guardian. - You heard, right?
Yes, I heard.
- Are the damages that serious? - Of course, it's serious!
It seems someone is about to lose their job because of your son.
I've been working in this neighborhood for ten years now.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone act so belligerently drunk like this.
Look here! Seriously, though... why did you do that?
Yeah, Ho Goo! Why did you do that?
- Ho Goo, why did you do that? - Why did you do that?
[6 months ago.]
Ho Goo!
What's up?
What are you hiding? Huh?
- I don't know what you're talking about. - Oh yeah?
Then you'll know what you have to do once I come back from the bathroom.
Because we have a lot of time on our hands.
I really have no idea what you're talking about!
Ho Goo.
What is this?
Why is Do Do Hee wearing your clothes?
Did you... by any chance...
Chung... Chung Jae!
So, the person you were flirting with...
The person you were going to meet on Christmas day...
The girl... you kissed...
was Do Do Hee?
I wasn't trying to hide it from you guys.
Do Hee came late after you guys left.
So we went to the Han River, drank some juice together, and talked a bit.
She wanted to go to the beach suddenly.
So, it just happened...
and we ended up in Yeosoo.
Eat some vegetables too.
How could you hide this from me?
- I'm sorry. - I revealed everything to you.
- Tae Hee... - But how...
How could you hide this from me?
The fact that your first kiss was with Do Do Hee.
I don't know if you remember this.
But I dedicated my teenage years to you.
It seems like you don't know our school very well, but there are rules to uphold.
I'd appreciate it if you follow them.
Do you understand? Say it again.
What are you looking at?
Say it again.
So you're saying you can't go on the bread shuttle?
How about after the first or second class? Either or is fine with me.
Hey, hey, hey! The type of pastry that I want to eat changes during break time.
There times when I want to eat red bean bread and sometimes I crave castella bread.
I want to eat bread during my break time and you only have time after what?
- Please don't hit my face! - Hey!
What?
Why do you... do you want to eat bread by being this despicable?
What's your problem? Get lost.
Hey. Just go to class 135 from now on.
Says who?
In exchange!
I'll go to class 246!
Hey, hold this for me.
What? What?
Come here!
Ho Goo... is your name?
Yeah.
Who gave you that name?
My dad.
'Ho' means good and 'Goo' means truth.
- Hey, my name is... - I know.
It's Kim Tae Hee.
Tae Hee! Kim Tae Hee!
Wow! Tae Hee, you've gotten a lot faster at walking!
I'm telling you, men who work our are definitely different.
Even looking at you from the back is no joke.
You look like Choo Sarang.
I told you his name is Choo Sung Woo!
Yeah, that's right. It's Choo Sung Woo, Choo Sung Woo.
Was it nice?
- Huh? - Was it nice hanging out with Do Do Hee?
Honestly, that cowardly behavior of yours created secrets between us!
I wouldn't be able to forgive you easily, but...
I am so proud of you, Kang Ho Goo.
Huh?
You're at the same level as that punk now. Byun Kang Chul.
Byun Kang Chul?
Five, four, three, two, one, start!
Okay, please hold your medal up!
Great! That's great! Pose, please! Very good!
Okay.
Hold up your medal please! Very good!
Looking good!
Pose, please!
Hello. Do you want me to take the picture for you?
No, that's okay.
Give me your phone, I'll do it for you.
No, thank you. I don't want a confined picture like that.
I see.
Fifty four people.
- Can you put another star here? - Hey.
Stop posting comments. You're going to ruin your nail.
Crazy Byun is going to throw a fit again if I don't press 'like.'
Forget it. Ho Kyung, are there any guys you can introduce me to?
There is. I know a lot of guys. What are you looking for?
- A nice guy. - Is that all?
Yeah. So, I've been thinking...
- How about your brother? - What?
- You said your brother is single. - No.
Why not? You said your brother is really sweet and innocent.
That's why you can't! My brother has to meet a girl that's sweeter than him.
It's bad enough that he's been seduced by sly wench right now. I'm so annoyed.
How come it takes so long to get your hemorrhoids removed?
Don't you think coming in next month is pushing it?
What if I don't make it next month?
No way! There's several commercials lined up for you to do.
Come on, it's not good for an athlete to be resting that long.
Just forget it. You have to come back next month.
Coach, give me some money.
Sure.
Don't try to save money and eat whatever you want before you come back.
Don't eat too much! You're going to gain weight!
Deposit it into my account. About ten million won?
What? Ten million won? Where do you get that kind of money?
- At the Ho Chi Minh account. - What are you talking about?
Are you kidding me? I don't have ten million won.
I didn't get half of the money from the photo shoot from last time.
I know I entrusted everything to you, but don't you think 3 to 7 is a bit harsh?
Hey, how can you think of me that way?
I was going to deposit the money through the internet.
But the wifi's not working here. That's why.
And why does it cost ten million won for a hemorrhoid surgery?
Make sure it's deposited.
I need the money.
Just how much are you going to stuff yourself? Look at how big your stomach is.
Sit over here.
- That's okay. - It's all right.
Pregnant women are allowed to sit here.
No. I'm not, grandma.
- I'm really not pregnant. - Come here.
I can tell that it's the most difficult time right now.
Is it obvious?
Are you craving pastries?
Aren't you nauseous?
I don't have morning sickness.
But...
I eat too much.
I get really nauseous if I don't eat something. I eat too much, though.
That's a morning sickness in which you have to eat.
There's a morning sickness like that?
Why do I always pick things that make me gain weight?
It seems your body is telling you that you need to gain weight.
When are you due?
In December.
You only have several months left.
Your stomach is going to get big real soon.
- Most likely. Right, grandma? - Yes.
This stop is November. The November station.
- Is it a boy or a girl? - I'll know by next month.
Eat this.
Thank you.
This stop is December. The December station.
Hey, Dad.
- Ho Goo, what's up with your getup? - Dad?
Why is it taking so long for Christmas to come?
Christmas?
You...
By any chance...
What's wrong?
The battery is dead!
I have to charge it!
Ho Goo.
Hey, Honey. What is it?
Our Ho Goo...
No, he's not whining about the side dishes.
No, he's not asking for money. Our Ho Goo...
I think he still believes in Santa Claus.
Santa?
Why would he believe in that? He's too old.
Christmas?
He's waiting for someone?
It must've not worked out with that girl.
No, no. He had a something with that girl and he spent the night with her several months ago.
- A fight? A fight? - Huh?
No, not a fight but some. S-O-M-E, some.
Some? Some.
What is that?
Some derives from the word 'something.'
You have to pick a partner in the short amount of time in this modern society.
Before you officially date, this 'some' time is needed
to see if that person is worth your time and money.
In conclusion, 'some' is a new social skill.
Yes?
If you look at page 27, 'You have to 'some' a lot in order to date properly.'
- That was the suggestion. - That's correct.
Don't you think this is very subjective with no scientific evidence?
I knew you would ask that... so I came prepared.
I applied the 'some' method on some white mice.
First, in the case of mouse number one...
It was deprived of food for three days so it was too weak to take the bait that it fainted.
With mouse number one, it was fed continuously for three days
and it got so lethargic that it didn't have the will to take the bait.
If so, then what do you think the outcome was for mouse number three?
In the end, the only way to survive was to give and take away the bait repeatedly.
It is proven by people that 'some' is a necessary skill for a successful relationship.
What do you think? Do you finally understand what the concept 'some' is?
'Some' or whatnot.
How is that different from finding the right sex partner?
Maybe it's because you've never tasted what it's like to be in a 'some' relationship.
Like mouse number one. Am I correct?
That was quite a surprising experiment you've done.
If you substitute this experiment with actual people...
We can expect very good results.
But, recruiting people won't be easy.
Don't worry, Professor. I have subjects that are willing and ready.
Here you guys are. Talking about girls and dating again?
[Mouse number 3.] Hey, Ho Kyung.
About your friends, Lee Soo Kyung, Sohn Ji Hee, Yoon Nan Joong.
Why can't we get a hold of them?
They all went on a school trip together.
- To where? - Over there.
They went to a place like Ohji.
A place with only horses, cows, and the electricity goes out after nine o'clock.
That's probably why you can't get a hold of them. Don't wait for them, okay?
I'm not waiting.
[Mouse number 1.] Why do you only introduce girls to Chung Jae?
You haven't introduced a single one to me and he's already met three of you friends.
Look at the mirror.
[Then of course, Ho Goo is...] Did you...
[Mouse number 2.]
You've experimented with them again, didn't you?
Tae Hee, with the next experiment...
I mean, I promise to introduce my friends to you next time.
[Mr. Ho Goo your 30 thousand won club fee is due.]
What the... are you still waiting for that girls call?
What do you mean 'still?' This is just the beginning for him.
Yeah, there's a reason why that girl hasn't called him.
- Ho Kyung, you don't have to smirk like that. - Sure.
- They even kissed. - Sure, sure.
- They agreed to meet on Christmas day. - Sure, sure, sure.
Kang Ho Kyung!
You don't even smoke.
Leave it.
Okay.
I was wrong.
Ho Goo.
What? What? Then what should I say to you?
That you've been waiting for a shady girl for the past six months... is really sweet
and beautiful. What? You want me to say something like this?
Ho Kyung.
For me, calling and texting each other everyday...
I don't think of that as testing our feelings for one another.
You just know that the feeling is there even if you don't say it.
Believing without saying? Believing without saying.
What is that?
What? Are you talking about the kiss after you two drank?
Kang Ho Goo.
I'm not saying this because I was born three seconds later than you.
I'm say this as your twin colleague that's living in the same generation as you.
Listen carefully.
I came home really drunk yesterday after school.
- And I kissed a guy. - What?
Who is it?
- The thing is, I don't remember. - Kang Ho Kyung, I swear...
But you know what's funny?
There hasn't been any sort of response from that guy since it happened.
There's five guys in our laboratory
And I have no idea who it is among them.
No one is making it obvious.
Now do you know?
All that sweet and innocent love is gone now.
A kiss is just a kiss now.
An instinctive behavior. Another simple way of saying goodbye after drinks.
Kang Ho Goo.
Please... please, let's live in the 21st century, okay?
[Do Do Hee.]
[National Swimming Association.]
Hello, I'm Kang Ho Goo.
Look, Mr. Ho Goo.
What kind of name is that?
Anyway, was there something going on between you and Do Hee?
- Excuse me? - You're fooling yourself if you did.
Understood?
Do Hee is not the type of person you can do something with.
She's like a national treasure.
Do you know what a living treasure is?
Not to mention, tons of guys will be hitting on her. Can you handle it?
Huh?
And from what I see, she's at a completely different level than you.
Level?
To give you hope and then to disappear all of a sudden? That's a true player.
- She's a different species from you. - What are you talking about?
- We're the same mammal. - No, she's the mammal.
Then what about me?
Ho Goo, you're...
A squid.
A squid?
Yes. Is it okay to eat it?
Of course, taurine is very good for pregnant mothers.
It's also important for your baby's growth.
Are you craving squid? What kind?
Just something like squid soondae.
- But why isn't the baby coming out? - No kidding.
I don't think this rascal is ready yet.
The baby isn't that big yet, so let's wait until the end of this week.
Okay.
Thank you.
Light walking and yoga is easy on the body.
Swimming is fine too.
I can't swim at all.
Then simple walking should be fine.
Okay.
By the way, I know a place that makes really good squid soondae.
Have a good day.
Where is it?
- Please sit here. - I'm fine.
- Please sit. - Thank you.
It's been awhile.
You idiot! You loser!
Ho Goo, you bastard!
Where is she?
Do Do Hee!
I'm sorry.
Ho Goo, are you okay? What is it? What's going on?
- Tae Hee. - What is it?
Did Young Bae beat you up for not paying the insurance premium?
Did someone jump you?
I think I met Do Do Hee.
What? Do Do Hee?
Kang Ho Goo.
If you're not too busy...
So, what did she say after that?
- She asked me to eat squid soondae with her. - What?
Aren't you going to eat?
She appears before you pregnant after six months and she says 'aren't you going to eat?'
'Aren't you going to eat?'
So, what did you say?
Aren't you going to eat?
Do you know how I lived for the past six months?
I couldn't eat! I couldn't draw!
I ran to my phone like a dog if I heard a text message!
My head is buzzing because of you!
Suddenly you appear before and what do you say to me?
'Aren't you going to eat?'
Could you stuff your face with soondae if you were me?
You eat the squid soondae. You eat it. You eat it!
And of all things to eat, why does it have to be squid? Why? Why? Why?
Aren't you going to eat?
I'm going to.
So... how far along are you?
I'm almost due now.
When did you get married?
This year. It was pretty quick.
Ah, I see.
But... is that how marriage is supposed to be?
The baby too. Was it always that easy?
I guess it was meant to be.
When it just easily happens like that.
People call that fate.
What else is there to say when this woman says all of this was fate?
Why isn't that fate me?
Why didn't she tell me ahead of time?
What difference would it make if I yelled or got angry?
That was good.
I'll pay for it.
It's my wedding gift to you.
- How much is it? - 14 thousand won.
Even at the last moment... I didn't want to show her my back.
You go first.
I'm going to order some squid soondae to go. I think my mom will enjoy it.
Okay.
Thanks... for the soondae.
It was nothing.
Well then...
Right, take care.
Watching Do Hee walk far away from me...
I had to see it with my own two eyes.
That way I could forget her quickly.
Rotten wench. She's so despicable.
Hey, it's actually better this way.
Honestly, when I found out that 'some' girl was Do Do Hee, I felt really uneasy about it.
She does photos shoots with celebrities and trains with world renowned athletes.
And when she suddenly sees guys like us...
We probably look like a squid to her.
Ho Goo.
I don't know how you'll take this...
but don't you think squids are happy because they're with their own kind?
If a squid tries to hang out with an expensive tilefish or some other species...
- Eventually, the one that gets hurt... - Eventually the one that gets hurt...
is probably the squid.
I'm okay, Tae Hee.
I just think of it... as a cool dream.
I'll probably...
have to eat this cheap squid everyday again.
But at least I have a cool friend like you.
You're my friend, but you're a really cool dude.
I'm really touched and impressed by your maturity. I love you.
Me too.
Ho Goo, let's hit the clubs on Christmas day. Let's go to the club...
and dance with all the girls and then we'll go bowling.
While we're there...
Right, let's take the bowling ball and just smash all the pins down.
Sounds good. Let's pick the heaviest balls and show the girls how strong we are.
Chung Jae! Tae Hee! There's squid on my blanket!
And it's raw squid at that!
Chung Jae! Tae Hee! There's squid on my blanket!
And it's raw squid at that!
Of course there is. You brought it.
- Huh? - Hey, Kang Ho Goo.
You don't remember what happened yesterday?
Ho Goo is totally drunk.
Chung Jae, you and I have to carry him.
Be careful on your way here.
Ma'am, is the bathroom empty?
- No one is inside, go ahead and use it. - I better go then.
Hey.
Why are you guys here?
Huh? Say what? You want to come out? Okay, let's get you out of here.
Let's get you out of here.
Young man, what are you doing?
- Hold on, it's okay! - I feel so bad for them!
Ho Goo, return the squid to the tank!
No! These guys are going to get eaten! I feel so bad for them!
Kang Ho Goo! Get yourself together!
Put it back in.
I'm going nuts here!
I've been in this business for 20 years and I've never seen the likes of you!
- So disgusting! - I'm sorry! I'm truly sorry!
Let's go! Let's go home, my friends! To the sea!
Let's go to the sea!
Come here!
It was really cold in there, wasn't it?
- Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! - Hey!
No, this is abuse!
- Put it back! - No! No!
What are you doing? Hurry up and call the animal farm!
- This is abuse! - Put it down!
Come here!
- Hey! Hey! - Chung Jae, help me!
What are you doing? You crazy bastard, let go!
Let go of me!
Let go!
He's not stealing! He's not stealing!
I was only trying to free them!
I only wanted to give them the gift of freedom!
It's not fair!
So... you're saying I brought these guys with me?
Yeah.
- To release them in the sea? - Yeah.
And I covered them up with a blanket because I was afraid they might get cold?
Yeah! Yeah! You did all of this!
Do you know how much we suffered because of you?
- I thought I was becoming an inky pasta! - Ho Goo.
We can't live in this neighborhood anymore. Pack your bags.
Why didn't you just get drunk, vomit, and sing out loud instead?
I thought you were cool with everything. Mature? Mature my ass!
You loser! Sniveling punk! You call yourself a man?
You stupid idiot!
And the way you look...
Did someone deliver a box of squid yesterday?
Ho Goo, bought it really cheap from someone he knows.
Really? Good job, son!
Good job, indeed. Kang Hoo did a very good job.
Kang Ho Kyung, are you older than your brother?
Good job, big brother.
It was nothing.
By the way, what are you guys doing on Christmas day?
Your father and I are thinking of going to Donghae to eat some sushi.
And just travel around for 3 nights and four days.
I'm going to hang out with my friends.
Wait a minute. You're going to close the shop for four days?
Daughter, when have you become so intellectual?
I'll watch the shop.
What are you talking about?
You should have fun on Christmas day.
Or do you want to go to Donghae with us?
No. I don't want to go anywhere that day.
I'll watch the store.
Have a great time.
Give me another shot.
How do you drink this?
My bag is kind of heavy.
Keep this for me and return it to me later.
Hey...
I have no intentions...
of dating you.
Me too.
I have no intentions of dating you either.
Do Hee.
Did you fight with your 'some' girl?
No.
Then did you get dumped?
No.
I think I was just being delusional.
She was my friend, but I think I overreacted on my own.
I'm okay now. It's all over.
I'm sorry you had to see that ugly side of me, Dad.
Did you ask her if you were being delusional?
How can I ask that kind of question? It's embarrassing.
It's truly embarrassing when a man is not honest with his own feelings.
Be honest with yourself and without any regrets. Did you ask her?
- Here. - What is this?
- Buy a new bag. It smells like squid. - No, no, no!
I have money! And...
my bag doesn't smell of squid at all.
Smell.
It's okay.
I'll just accept your kindness.
You liar, it reeks.
Keep this for me and return it to me later.
It's going to take some time for me to return the comic book.
Christmas day.
Return it to me then.
That was close.
Hurry and come out. How many days has it been already?
Lady!
Ah, yes? Yes?
I have to go home.
I'll lock up behind me like last time.
No, no, no.
Seriously, you can't continue to do this.
Why not? What's with the sudden change of heart?
I'll make sure to lock up behind me and I'll even clean the floor for you.
Seriously, you can't do this.
Fine, but make sure the floors are squeaky clean.
Okay.
How fast can you swim? What's your record, huh?
I swear I'm going to give you heart attack once my baby is born.
Let it go.
Let's do it again.
- Lady. - Yes?
You returned the comic book.
Yeah. I did it while I was passing by.
I was at the shop.
Why didn't you return it inside?
I was a bit busy.
Take it. We agreed to return it today.
Hey...
Do Do Hee.
Let me ask you one question.
You and I... what...
what were we?
We were friends.
And we're friends now.
Friends?
Friends.
But...
do you go to the beach at night with just a friend?
Do you run and hold hands with just a friend?
Do you...
give stuff like this to just a friend?
And if I'm your friend, you should've invited me to your wedding.
Fine.
You and I had something going on.
So what?
Do you find it unfair?
- What do you mean unfair? - I told you clearly.
I had no intentions of dating you and you agreed.
- I didn't mean it like that at the time... - Hey.
Sometimes it doesn't go the way you want it to. Why are you overreacting? What did we do?
What? Going to the beach and spending the night with you?
Touching each other after we drank?
What about it? Was it that special?
You bitch!
What did we do?
Sometimes it doesn't go the way you want it to?
I...
I didn't do that with you.
Even if you disappeared for six months and didn't call me...
Even if you got married without saying a word to me...
Even if you appear before me looking like this!
I never once hated you.
But...
Looking at you now...
You really are an evil bitch.
And...
did you just pee in your pants...
because I shocked you?
No.
My water broke.
Your water broke? What is that?
My name is Ho Goo. Do Hee, are you okay?
Hold on just a little bit longer.
Do Hee, let go, let go! Do Hee!
Kang Ho Goo.
- Thanks. - I should get going.
- When is her husband... - No one is going to come.
The fact that she wrote your name down is weird and you're the weirdest of them all.
Please just stop it right here.
I'll give you an additional 100 thousand won if you get married next year.
Here is her number.
Tae He was right.
Even though my name is Ho Goo, I can no longer behave in a hopeless manner.
A little bit more. Just a little bit more!
[Shouldn't you be spending Christmas with your family?]
[Your baby should be born right about now.]
Ma'am! Ma'am! Ma'am!
