Great, look at me, Stacy.
hello stacy
She is so nice
Oh shit, that really disgusts me
What?
Do you mean this?
Mom

...did she tell her
Mom
Welcome
The lightning is so far away, it won't hurt you
Warning: Vehicles are not
allowed to enter after this point
turn off the phone
Are you used to scaring your friends?
- See? -
honey bee (chrissy)
Save me last quarter
I can't wait to see this quarter, remember
when you tried to sell your honey online?
When I told you it was a waste of your time?
-...it seems, but -
It wasn't a waste of time though
I received a lot of orders
Out of stock
but how?
Apparently one of the high-end people wrote
a post about your honey and it went viral
I don't know what this means
Frankly, Amanda, I also don't
know...My niece tried to explain to me but
What I will do now is I will
try to sell every drop you make
Do you want some juice?
- Yes please -
What is that?
What do you mean?
It's for my bee colonies
(Danny) says our honey is
very much sold on the internet
But that's not my profession
Yes, but it's what we do, right?
We can handle it.
- Thank you.
Mom, I was thinking - I want you
to go to Danny's after breakfast.
Sorry, hello
Excuse me?
I do not understand you
thank you thank you
to stop
Stop, don't get any closer
... turn off the car, turn off the car
(So Hyun)
who are you?
Didn't you know your uncle?
My uncle?
I crossed half the world in a
plane to come and see you
Won't you offer
me a cup of coffee?
turn off the car
please
And turn off your phone too
my cell phone? Why?
I can't get close to electricity
What?
Where is your husband?
I don't have a husband
why not?
I didn't think I needed a husband
hey
Is this your daughter? I
passed by her on the road
did you talk to her?
- I tried it -
But she didn't understand even a
single word of the Korean language, why?
Because she's American
Nonsense, you can
never hide your origin
What happens when
you approach electricity?
How long have you been living like this?
Since the birth of my daughter
Please tell me the reason for your visit
Your mother passed away
She passed away months ago
I wanted to come before but I
didn't know how to get to you
You don't have a cell phone,
email, or Cocoa account.
And worst of all, you got
rid of your Korean name
Your parents gave you that name
It was the name your mother
called you moments before her death
She tried to reach you with her last breath
As if you were sitting next to her
"Is that you, Soo Hyun?"
That's how I called you
...but
You weren't around her, were you?
Doctors said she died of a heart attack
But I know that her death was your fault
What kind of girls abandon their mother?
She needed you but you left her
Exactly as your dad left it useless
and what about me?
Who was there to take care of me?
The child's obligations
are to his parents
In the life of this world and after death
But you refused it
And now she's stuck
in this world like a ghost
Her anger will only grow
as long as she is in this box
...so you have to
no
get out of my house
Every day her pain will turn into poison
and it will penetrate deep inside you
Your mom always gets what she wants
You know her capabilities very well

hello danny
Hi, I was just thinking
of you, come on
There is a waiting list
for the honey you make
Fabulous, isn't it?
- Yes wonderful -
Good
There are still some hives
Gorgeous
I have to work on some
of these, let me take a look
Go to the counter,
River, for a moment
Why?
Are you going to steal the place?
This is my niece and she's going to be spending a
few weeks with me since her parents are out of town
Hey, River, this is Chris.
Welcome
Welcome
I love to wear you
Thanks
I love your freckles,
I wish I had one
University of West Mesa
Mom
No, don't touch it. Why? -
From where he came?
Wait
Did it come on its own?
What happened to your face?
(Chris)
Mom
(Chrissy)
I'm coming Chris
(Chrissy)
(Chrissy)
Where are you, Chrissy?
answer me my dear
Mom
(Chris)
(So Hyun)
Is this you?
Come here
Mom
Do you suffer from a nightmare?
Yes
Welcome
Are you well?
I mean, you're acting weird
Where did this come from?
(Chrissy)
I asked you a question
It's from Danny.
gave it to me
Who is Danny? Why?
because he is my friend
He is not a friend, I took his
books, I pay him money to help us
He's your friend too mom
He is... our only friend
So do you want to go to university?
- no -
no?
Nice hall, it will make
your customers very happy
What is the matter? Did I say something bad?
No, you know, it never
occurred to me to be a beekeeper
I mean, I'm an accountant, what
would I know about the honey industry?
...but more than that
I hate bees
I hate their voice
The constant buzzing
sound that... is annoying
...but someday
Chrissy comes home
with a book on beekeeping
She became obsessed with the idea
and desperately wanted to make a beehive
And she was asking me
to help her convince you
I was nervous at first but...
She was (Chrissy)... brave
She was surrounded by all
those bees, it made her so happy
And that made me happy too
Made me feel like a good mother
So we added more beehives
It was something we had to do together
So I was very surprised when I found the
application form for the university that I gave her
No, look, I gave her that form
because she asked me for it
You might think it's
none of my business but
Going to university
might be good for her
She will be able to make friends and
live her life to some extent on her own
Sorry, but you didn't really think she
was going to be here forever, did you?
University of West Mesa
no
I'm your mother, you can
never run away from me
I hate you, I wish my
dad was there for you
I'll be with you even
after death, Soo Hyun.
We started as one
and will end as one

Now I can't die without you
Do you see how it is now?
look at me
(Chrissy)
Why are you wearing this?
Sorry mom, I was just
trying it, found it here
Take it off - what? -
Take it off - why? -
what happens?
...you were behaving
I'm just worried about you
I'm good
Is it about the bag?
- I'm fine, Chrissy.
Naughty little girl
open the door
Mom, let me go out.

Mom - (Chris)

(Chrissy)
What are you doing there?
Are you well?
Who are these women?
Tell me who you are
decent
do not talk to me
But when I'm gone, no one will
be afraid to know your secrets
(Chris)
Someone came to our house a few days ago
And with him the bag
That man was my uncle
He came here from Korea to
tell me about my mother's death
The ones I told you about
are not my real parents
I made up those names
My mother raised me
my real mother
What is inside?
My mother's remains
In addition to the possessions
that were dear to her
Are her ashes here?
your mom?
Yes, this is my mother
Mom
I never expected you
to appear in my life again
And what else did you lie to me about?
- No, Chrissy, I am.
what do you want to know?
Was this hers?
The robe is called a hanbok.
Made it herself
She was very proud of her work
She gave it to me as an inheritance
What is that?
It's the tal mask.
It's a family heirloom
It has been worn by the women in our
family for generations and generations
Why are all these things here?
She always said she wanted to take her
favorite things with her to the afterlife
Maybe she left them at her ceremony
Which ceremony?
Some Koreans believe that life's hardships are
caused by the tormented spirits of their ancestors
Therefore, they offer sacrifices to rest their souls
Is this what you believe in?
I don't believe in superstitions
There is something else here
What is the matter?
Mom
What is the matter?
Don't cry little girl
Hold on, I want you to keep this
What is it, mom?
It's my old jukebox of course
If you play music when you are
sad, it will make you happy again
good morning
Hello Hello -
Give it to me - No,
no, it's part of my job.
Is your niece still here?
I was thinking of organizing a game night
with Chris, in case you two want to join us
I think this will be useful for her
Gorgeous
Do you want me to braid your hair?
Not strong.
- Sorry.
yellow color, yellow color
Time belongs to both hands
I think I got it
Do you want to go upstairs?
- Yes -
truly?
Don't you want to play another round?
- no -
No, it's okay, thanks
Good
What is a great place
Is this your university application form?
- Yes -
Your life is very old
do you have a phone?
no
So how do you talk to your friends?
My mom is my girlfriend
But of course I have other friends
You pull the letter (X) in the middle
and then go down that and pull it out
Well done
You do this a little
Do you know? I talked about you
with those kids standing next to the store
truly?
They think it's so funny
I mean, how silly
They have nothing to do but
gossip about your way of life
Pathetic
Is this your phone? - Yes -
Did Danny tell you to
leave him in the car?
...yes but
You have to turn it off, my
mother can't go near the electricity
What? why not?
She gets sick a lot
Good
I had my phone the whole time
and nothing happened to your mom
Can you tell me what
happens when you get sick?
...fuck, I haven't had a beer since
Since before I was born to Chris.
truly?
...it doesn't look like
Are you the one who made this sound?
- Yes, my stomach has been hurting a lot lately.
Oh my God, I talk like you're my mother
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Are you okay, Amanda?
...I believe
I think something is wrong
Chris is still young,
you know that?
just talk to her
I didn't want you to know her
My dad said she was very smart and
funny when they got married in Korea.
Then they came to America.
land of the free
Land of Opportunity
I think we were happy
He was so excited about this place
...but my mother
suffered
Everything here
seemed foreign to her
She was scared the whole time
It changed after we got home
I remember her screaming so hard
I guess my dad couldn't
stand it any longer
And after he left, I became all you had
So I had to do everything
I had to bear it all
all the rage
And that pain
And when I got pregnant
I made a promise to myself and you
That I will never
be like my mother
(So Hyun)
You are not the only
naughty girl in this house
Turning on and off the electricity
running electricity
I know why you don't make me rest
You need me, and she needs us
We can be a good mother together
Why would you do something like this?
do what?
this
spoiled
I have to reprint it again
I did not do that
If not you, then who?
Mom
She's here
What?
She's the one who did this to you
From?
Mom, she thinks you'll run away from us
There's no point in talking to
you when you're behaving like this
How do I act?
Like a wretched, despicable woman
What did you just describe me?
I called you crazy and crazy
And you know, I can't wait to leave
leave?
Baby, you're not going anywhere
You can't force me to stay
I don't have to
darling, darling
You can't even make friends
You're so afraid, I'm the
only one who cares about you
Why are you behaving like this?
I am your mother
I'm the only one who
can tell you the truth
The truth is...you will fail
My dear
Are you leaving?
Did you forget the last time
you tried to go to school?
And the time before?
And the time before?
Did you forget when you used to come home every day
crying and saying: No one wants to play with me mom
Shut up. You asked
me to teach you at home.
you begged me
And what did I do?
I teach you at home
You wanted friends, and I was your friend
You wanted to build a bee colony and
I built one for you with my own hands
Everything I've done since you were born has been for
you, to make you happy, to give you a good, safe home.
It was all for you
Do you think this is all for me?
Do you mean to live like this?
Untouched by all the
world as an eccentric?
You live in illusions
You are hiding something
Electricity doesn't hurt you, does it?
What?
Your illness is not real
...yes, it doesn't mean you can't
Not real
I just made it up
Something made you visualize
everything in your head and that's pathetic
You said you'd never
be like your mother
But this is another lie
(Chris), (Chris)
where are you going?
(Chris)
(Chris), don't go, (Chris)
(Chris)
Did you know that her illness
from electrocution is not real?
Did you know?
It's real for her
Why didn't you say anything?
I tried many times to take her to see
a doctor but she refused, insisting that
Why didn't you say anything to me?
I don't know, I don't
know I thought you knew
Of course I didn't know
If I knew I would do something
Wait, let me take you home
Is that what you want?
Final resting place?
Now leave me alone
You call that a burial?
I'll show you what the burial is like
Let me go deep
into you, Soo Hyun.
Get away from me
Do you want a ride?
I brought you something
It's a farewell gift
Technically I'm leaving so let's
take it...just a gift, but anyway
What is that?
- It's a school calendar -
You can write down your
classes, schedules or parties
Most people use
Telegram, but you know
You are different from most people
You are going, right?
You have to go. You
don't have to do anything.
...that's true but
you have to go
Good
Listen, I know you think
people think you're weird
And I'm not going to lie
to you, you're really weird
But you think being weird is a bad
thing, but do you know? You are not bad
There are many weirdos everywhere
but they are just as interesting as you
You have to go out into
the world and find them
Don't you want to know that feeling?
The feeling of finding people like you
Your daughter does not treat you with respect
She needs a real mother
Let me be her mother
Good-bye
good luck
Mom
Are you here?
Welcome
Mom
Mom
It's time to offer my condolences
what is all of this?
This is called jesa weather.
This is what we do to honor our ancestors
To be with them, so that they
are not alone in the afterlife
Get down on your knees and offer my condolences
Why?
You said you don't believe in these things
do it - no
Stop it you
disrespectful little girl
You remind me so much of your mother
She also tried to escape
from the house you gave her
Do you know what I was doing
when she was disobeying me?
I kept her in the closet until
she thought how she hurt me
Mom
Mom, you scare me
She too was afraid
Because she couldn't see how she was
hurting me every time I tried to run away
I wanted her to...believe me
She had to understand
that my pain was real
And there was a punishment, my
favorite punishment, the cut wire
So I wanted her to hold it so that my pain would
turn into hers and we could feel it together
But she never learned her lesson
You can never escape
(Chrissy)
help me
I carried you in my womb
get away from me
I felt every iota of pain as you were
tearing my body and trying to get out
But nothing compares to the pain of dying alone
Mom, this is me
look at me
You couldn't sleep if we had nightmares
That's the truth, you could feel
my pain even if I didn't ask for help
I didn't mean what I said, you're not her
Mom - (Chris)
-
My God
I'm so sorry, Chris, I'm sorry
...I didn't want that but she didn't
Hear me, hear me
I didn't know what you went
through in your past, I wish I knew
We have to go now
mother Mother
mom, no
It doesn't scare me anymore
Mom
show yourself
Mom, why are you so sad?
Do you remember when you gave me this?
You said it would make me
happy every time I played it
Let me play music to you now
I only cared about your happiness
You have no idea how much I suffer
You are wrong mom
I know what you've been through
You were a talented and
prestigious dressmaker in Korea.
I was happy
You were expected
to be a good wife
But you left everything and went
with your husband to a foreign country
But you couldn't speak
the language or ask for help
I know it wasn't easy
(So Hyun)
I pray every day to see
you and to be together again
But you never came
I come now
I understand that life has been hard on you
But you were cruel to me
I had to leave
Now you have to do the same
I am your mother
I will always be a part of you
We can't be together like this
I can't stay
no
(So Hyun)
where are you going?
Don't leave me, Soo Hyun.
Please
Mom
I will give you your jesa to have the
peace you have not had in your whole life
Now it's time for you to leave
I'm done bearing your pain
Mom
Are you ready?
I hope you are in peace, Mom.
I put it in my pocket
Danny is on his way here
Why don't you pull it off?
All right, college
girl, are you ready?
We'll call you as soon as we get there, Amanda.
Mom
Mom
open the door
Mom
I'm sorry
I won't run away again, I promise
I love you mom
Then why don't you realize how
much you hurt me, Soo Hyun?

She always said she wanted to take her
favorite things with her to the afterlife
Maybe she left them at her ceremony
Which ceremony?
Some Koreans believe that life's hardships are
caused by the tormented spirits of their ancestors
Therefore, they offer sacrifices to rest their souls
Is this what you believe in?
I don't believe in superstitions
There is something else here
What is the matter?
Mom
What is the matter?
Don't cry little girl
Hold on, I want you to keep this
What is it, mom?
It's my old jukebox of course
If you play music when you are
sad, it will make you happy again
good morning
Hello Hello -
Give it to me - No,
no, it's part of my job.
Is your niece still here?
I was thinking of organizing a game night
with Chris, in case you two want to join us
I think this will be useful for her
Gorgeous
Do you want me to braid your hair?
Not strong.
- Sorry.
yellow color, yellow color
Time belongs to both hands
I think I got it
Do you want to go upstairs?
- Yes -
truly?
Don't you want to play another round?
- no -
No, it's okay, thanks
Good
What is a great place
Is this your university application form?
- Yes -
Your life is very old
do you have a phone?
no
So how do you talk to your friends?
My mom is my girlfriend
But of course I have other friends
You pull the letter (X) in the middle
and then go down that and pull it out
Well done
You do this a little
Do you know? I talked about you
with those kids standing next to the store
truly?
They think it's so funny
I mean, how silly
They have nothing to do but
gossip about your way of life
Pathetic
Is this your phone? - Yes -
Did Danny tell you to
leave him in the car?
...yes but
You have to turn it off, my
mother can't go near the electricity
What? why not?
She gets sick a lot
Good
I had my phone the whole time
and nothing happened to your mom
Can you tell me what
happens when you get sick?
...fuck, I haven't had a beer since
Since before I was born to Chris.
truly?
...it doesn't look like
Are you the one who made this sound?
- Yes, my stomach has been hurting a lot lately.
Oh my God, I talk like you're my mother
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Are you okay, Amanda?
...I believe
I think something is wrong
Chris is still young,
you know that?
just talk to her
I didn't want you to know her
My dad said she was very smart and
funny when they got married in Korea.
Then they came to America.
land of the free
Land of Opportunity
I think we were happy
He was so excited about this place
...but my mother
suffered
Everything here
seemed foreign to her
She was scared the whole time
It changed after we got home
I remember her screaming so hard
I guess my dad couldn't
stand it any longer
And after he left, I became all you had
So I had to do everything
I had to bear it all
all the rage
And that pain
And when I got pregnant
I made a promise to myself and you
That I will never
be like my mother
(So Hyun)
You are not the only
naughty girl in this house
Turning on and off the electricity
running electricity
I know why you don't make me rest
You need me, and she needs us
We can be a good mother together
Why would you do something like this?
do what?
this
spoiled
I have to reprint it again
I did not do that
If not you, then who?
Mom
She's here
What?
She's the one who did this to you
From?
Mom, she thinks you'll run away from us
There's no point in talking to
you when you're behaving like this
How do I act?
Like a wretched, despicable woman
What did you just describe me?
I called you crazy and crazy
And you know, I can't wait to leave
leave?
Baby, you're not going anywhere
You can't force me to stay
I don't have to
darling, darling
You can't even make friends
You're so afraid, I'm the
only one who cares about you
Why are you behaving like this?
I am your mother
I'm the only one who
can tell you the truth
The truth is...you will fail
My dear
Are you leaving?
Did you forget the last time
you tried to go to school?
And the time before?
And the time before?
Did you forget when you used to come home every day
crying and saying: No one wants to play with me mom
Shut up. You asked
me to teach you at home.
you begged me
And what did I do?
I teach you at home
You wanted friends, and I was your friend
You wanted to build a bee colony and
I built one for you with my own hands
Everything I've done since you were born has been for
you, to make you happy, to give you a good, safe home.
It was all for you
Do you think this is all for me?
Do you mean to live like this?
Untouched by all the
world as an eccentric?
You live in illusions
You are hiding something
Electricity doesn't hurt you, does it?
What?
Your illness is not real
...yes, it doesn't mean you can't
Not real
I just made it up
Something made you visualize
everything in your head and that's pathetic
You said you'd never
be like your mother
But this is another lie
(Chris), (Chris)
where are you going?
(Chris)
(Chris), don't go, (Chris)
(Chris)
Did you know that her illness
from electrocution is not real?
Did you know?
It's real for her
Why didn't you say anything?
I tried many times to take her to see
a doctor but she refused, insisting that
Why didn't you say anything to me?
I don't know, I don't
know I thought you knew
Of course I didn't know
If I knew I would do something
Wait, let me take you home
Is that what you want?
Final resting place?
Now leave me alone
You call that a burial?
I'll show you what the burial is like
Let me go deep
into you, Soo Hyun.
Get away from me
Do you want a ride?
I brought you something
It's a farewell gift
Technically I'm leaving so let's
take it...just a gift, but anyway
What is that?
- It's a school calendar -
You can write down your
classes, schedules or parties
Most people use
Telegram, but you know
You are different from most people
You are going, right?
You have to go. You
don't have to do anything.
...that's true but
you have to go
Good
Listen, I know you think
people think you're weird
And I'm not going to lie
to you, you're really weird
But you think being weird is a bad
thing, but do you know? You are not bad
There are many weirdos everywhere
but they are just as interesting as you
You have to go out into
the world and find them
Don't you want to know that feeling?
The feeling of finding people like you
Your daughter does not treat you with respect
She needs a real mother
Let me be her mother
Good-bye
good luck
Mom
Are you here?
Welcome
Mom
Mom
It's time to offer my condolences
what is all of this?
This is called jesa weather.
This is what we do to honor our ancestors
To be with them, so that they
are not alone in the afterlife
Get down on your knees and offer my condolences
Why?
You said you don't believe in these things
do it - no
Stop it you
disrespectful little girl
You remind me so much of your mother
She also tried to escape
from the house you gave her
Do you know what I was doing
when she was disobeying me?
I kept her in the closet until
she thought how she hurt me
Mom
Mom, you scare me
She too was afraid
Because she couldn't see how she was
hurting me every time I tried to run away
I wanted her to...believe me
She had to understand
that my pain was real
And there was a punishment, my
favorite punishment, the cut wire
So I wanted her to hold it so that my pain would
turn into hers and we could feel it together
But she never learned her lesson
You can never escape
(Chrissy)
help me
I carried you in my womb
get away from me
I felt every iota of pain as you were
tearing my body and trying to get out
But nothing compares to the pain of dying alone
Mom, this is me
look at me
You couldn't sleep if we had nightmares
That's the truth, you could feel
my pain even if I didn't ask for help
I didn't mean what I said, you're not her
Mom - (Chris)
-
My God
I'm so sorry, Chris, I'm sorry
...I didn't want that but she didn't
Hear me, hear me
I didn't know what you went
through in your past, I wish I knew
We have to go now
mother Mother
mom, no
It doesn't scare me anymore
Mom
show yourself
Mom, why are you so sad?
Do you remember when you gave me this?
You said it would make me
happy every time I played it
Let me play music to you now
I only cared about your happiness
You have no idea how much I suffer
You are wrong mom
I know what you've been through
You were a talented and
prestigious dressmaker in Korea.
I was happy
You were expected
to be a good wife
But you left everything and went
with your husband to a foreign country
But you couldn't speak
the language or ask for help
I know it wasn't easy
(So Hyun)
I pray every day to see
you and to be together again
But you never came
I come now
I understand that life has been hard on you
But you were cruel to me
I had to leave
Now you have to do the same
I am your mother
I will always be a part of you
We can't be together like this
I can't stay
no
(So Hyun)
where are you going?
Don't leave me, Soo Hyun.
Please
Mom
I will give you your jesa to have the
peace you have not had in your whole life
Now it's time for you to leave
I'm done bearing your pain
Mom
Are you ready?
I hope you are in peace, Mom.
I put it in my pocket
Danny is on his way here
Why don't you pull it off?
All right, college
girl, are you ready?
We'll call you as soon as we get there, Amanda.
Mom
