(Under the Gun)
Nice, you're dead meat now.
All right. Here's your beer.
Thank you.
Mr. Jung, join us for a game.
I can't. I'm working.
Come on. Sit down and join us for a game.
Lady Luck hasn't exactly been on my side lately.
By the way, I heard a part-timer here
beat Mr. Yoo big-time the other day.
- He beat Mr. Yoo? - I'm sure he can't beat this guy.
He has won a number of amateur tournaments.
So? Who's this part-timer?
Well, he is
Speak of the devil.
(Ko Gun)
Hey, Gun.
- I won't do it. - Just one game.
I don't want to do it.
Come on. Just 1 game. Just play 1 game, please.
What? You know how it is. Why are you being like this?
- They'll get two bottles of liquor. - Forget it.
How about a bonus, then?
I'll give you a fat bonus.
It's that table, right?
That stubborn brat.
Right, I heard it was no joke.
- Like I said - Hello.
Well, shall we play?
All right, then. Let's see how good you really are.
- I guess you got good cards. - They're so-so.
- Fifty dollars. - Call.
They're all betting 50 dollars in the preflop round?
I guess they all got a decent hand.
He's trying to keep a poker face but can't drop the smirk.
This one keeps fiddling with his cards,
so he probably has to play with a mediocre hand.
I suppose this one just wants to play.
Raise.
- I guess you've got a good hand. - We'll see.
- Fifty, call. - Call.
- Check. - Check.
I guess these guys all like to play it safe.
Raise. Three hundred dollars.
- Hold. - Hold.
Three hundred, call.
Clearly, he's got a good hand.
Hold.
- Check. - Raise.
Twelve hundred.
He's probably bluffing, right?
(Bluffing: Acting as though you're holding a good hand)
You're bluffing, right?
He's just fiddling with his chips instead of going all in,
so it can't be American Airlines.
Darn it. Fold.
What were your cards?
The ace of hearts and the three of clubs.
Can't you show us the river?
Show us. It won't cost you anything.
Triple five.
So I was bound to win anyway.
What's with that smirk?
What is it? I bet you're bluffing.
I don't know.
Wait, can you show your hand? I want to know.
Come on. Put the money on the table, and I'll show you.
My goodness.
Fine, I'll give you the money. Here you go.
All right, then. Enjoy your game.
Gosh.
- What the - Darn it.
(The player that is first to act on any given betting round)
(and therefore is in the most disadvantageous position)
I should take a selfie.
My gosh. I look so pretty.
Hi.
Oh, hey.
Didn't you miss me?
There are so many handsome men in LA.
Why would I miss you?
I'm so hurt.
Why did I bother preparing that thing?
What thing?
- Here. - How come you're suddenly so sweet?
I was always sweet to you.
By the way, this is a nice car.
How much do cars like this cost?
I make this much when I win a tournament or two.
My gosh. You're such a braggart.
Why don't you marry me?
What's the number for the police hotline?
I must report you for hitting on a minor.
Hey, another woman will snatch me up if you keep ignoring me like this.
- Be careful. - Whatever. Date someone else, then.
There.
- Welcome home! - Welcome home!
My daughter. I missed you much.
My gosh. You've gotten even lovelier since the last time I saw you.
Mom, you never seem to age.
If people saw us together, they'd think you're my sister.
My gosh.
Thanks for picking her up, Tae Ha.
No problem. Of course, I should pick her up.
Bye, Tae Ha.
Hey, don't be like that. You're hurting his feelings.
Tae Ha, stay and eat with us since you're here anyway.
I'll call your mom.
- May I? - Yes, of course.
You, of all people, are more than welcome to join us.
My gosh. If others saw you two, they'd think he was your son.
They say a son-in-law is loved the most by his mother-in-law.
It must be true, Mother.
I mean, my mother-in-law.
Hey, what's with you?
Are you trying to ruin my bright future?
Come on.
You don't need to remind me. I was about to give it to you.
It would've been nice had you handed it over before I reminded you.
Here, I'm being generous.
A hundred dollars?
Now that my boss is getting old,
he's becoming petty and thinks that 100 dollars is good enough.
My gosh. You stubborn brat, seriously.
Gosh, here. Take this.
Thank you. I'll work harder from now on.
Will you go home today?
I have a shift at the convenience store.
Do you get any sleep?
I sleep when I can.
I'm off.
Thank you.
(Dad: Gun, I'm going to sleep at the hospital tonight.)
I'm home.
My gosh. The school uniform is so pretty.
My school in the US didn't have a uniform,
so I didn't feel like a student.
How does it feel to be back in Korea?
You're happy to see me, right?
Yes, I'm so happy.
Oh, right.
Mom, this is for you.
My gosh. What is this?
I didn't buy this with your credit card, Mom.
I saved up my allowance and bought this with my money.
My dear daughter, you're the best.
Thanks, daughter. I'll put this to good use.
Okay.
Anyway, Se Young. Do you really not have any feelings for Tae Ha?
I feel so bad whenever I see his mother. You know that, right?
She needs to get with the times.
Why does she want her son to get married at such a young age?
We just want you guys to start dating.
No one said you should get married right away.
Besides, Tae Ha is a good catch.
He's from a good family. Also, he is competent
and good-looking.
Well, I don't feel like he's the one for some reason.
My goodness. Keep that up, and you'll end up like me.
Come on. Dad's great.
Mom, I heard
everyone had a special someone destined to be their life partner.
The thing is, I've known Tae Ha for ten years,
and I've never felt that way about him. Not even once.
If Tae Ha hears this, he'll be hurt.
It's hurtful, but what can I do? It's the truth.
The uniform is so nice.
I can't wait to go to school.
(High School)
Attention, everyone. We have a new transfer student.
She's from LA.
Be nice to her, all of you. Okay?
Hi, it's nice to meet you all.
I'm Cha Se Young.
All right. Do we have an empty desk?
There's one right next to Gun. You can sit there.
Okay.
Hi, I'm Cha Se Young.
Nice to meet you.
Hey, you're very good-looking.
Do you have a girlfriend?
Oh, is it rude to ask a question like this?
I moved to the US when I was in middle school,
so I don't have many friends in Korea.
- So of course, no boyfriend. - Really?
Did I ask you?
Oh, sorry.
Hey, let's be friends.
- I want to be your friend - I'm sorry,
- What? - but can you be quiet?
All right.
Is he going home already?
Hi, I'm Shin Yoon A.
I'm Lee Ji Min. I heard you were from the States.
Yes, LA.
I see. The USA.
I studied English in the US too.
I was in Manhattan, New York.
You were only there for three weeks over the summer.
It doesn't matter because I did study there.
Besides, I was very popular when I was there.
By the way, where did you get your nose done?
It looks so natural.
What? I didn't get a nose job.
- Seriously? - Okay, then you qualify.
Do you want to join the Princess Club?
- What? - We believe
you're qualified to join the Princess Club.
If you have any questions, ask away. We'll tell you everything we know.
We know everything about this school.
Well, then
You know, that guy.
His nickname is HZ, which stands for "Hot Zombie."
I heard he got along with everyone in his freshman year,
but he totally changed as soon as the second year began.
He sleeps all day at school,
and he always looks so depressed.
He doesn't even eat lunch at school.
His parents went bankrupt, so he can't afford school lunch.
Rumor has it that he now works as a male escort.
He's got a handsome face, but what's the point?
A pretty face is all you need.
Anyway, he never opens up to anyone at school these days.
Even if you want to get close to him, you can't.
He might seem approachable at times, but he's out of your reach.
You know what I mean?
He can be like that because he knows he's good-looking.
Gun, good work today.
Thank you.
I have to say, you deserve a pat on the back.
You're working hard, unlike those kids doing bad stuff.
Your parents are very lucky.
Right?
I want to see them become lucky.
Hey, how much did you spend?
Three thousand dollars. I put it on my mom's credit card.
Hey, have you lost your mind?
Won't she kill you if you get caught?
Darn it. She won't get mad at me if I win.
You're nuts.
Hey!
This is nuts. I got AA.
That is nuts.
Hey, if you win this round, you'll get 20,000 dollars.
What are you waiting for? Go all in.
I wouldn't, if I were you.
What did you say?
Don't destroy your family
by gambling.
What's he saying?
- Darn it, seriously! - Why? What happened?
- Darn it. I'm done for. - Hey, let me see.
- Did you lose all of it? - What will I say to my mom?
Darn it.
Hey, I lost all my money because of you.
Who are you to lecture me? Do you have a death wish?
If you hit me now,
you'll have to compensate me on top of the money you just lost.
Are you okay with that?
Are you trying to look cool, loser? Do you want to die?
I said what I said out of concern.
Seriously, you little
Who are you?
Me?
I'm Cha Se Young.
You nosy idiots, mind your own business.
I'm not being nosy. I'm saying this out of concern.
You just blew your parents' hard-earned money.
Instead of arguing with me,
shouldn't you go home and beg for their forgiveness?
Why, you little Shall I teach you a lesson today?
Just so you know, I hold a fourth degree black belt in taekwondo.
You little
Are you sorry or not?
Okay, I heard you.
- "I heard you?" - Well understood.
All right, then. You can go.
Darn you
Go.
I told you to be careful.
Why are you following me?
Well
My place is this way too.
Your place?
Yes. Why?
Do you work there?
Yes.
- Every day? - Yes.
Every single day? Until this late?
What about you?
I went there to get this.
At this late hour?
I'm still having a hard time adapting to the time zone change.
Anyway, that's not important now.
Did you have dinner?
- Dinner? - Yes, dinner.
Why do you want to know that?
He doesn't even eat lunch at school.
His parents went bankrupt, so he can't afford school lunch.
Good question. Why am I asking you about it?
Well, I'm just curious.
Am I not allowed to be curious?
Don't you think I'm very pretty?
Well, a girl is going home alone.
A pretty girl at that. She's going home alone at this hour.
Shouldn't you at least offer to walk me home?
I thought you were a fourth degree in taekwondo.
Well, even so. It could be dangerous to walk alone at night.
Based on what I saw earlier,
anyone who runs into you would be in bigger danger.
Well, I was just trying to help you
Go home already.
What?
Okay.
I'll see you tomorrow at school!
Thanks for that.
(High School)
That's it for today's class.
Your attitude will affect your performance assessment scores.
- No. - No.
Don't be like that.
Enjoy your lunch!
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Princess Se Young, do you want to go to the snack shop?
You girls can go without me. I don't want to go.
Don't you think she's acting strange today?
All right. We'll now begin the award ceremony
for the 2017 Junior Elegance Piano Competition.
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-place winners have been announced.
Next up is the Encouragement Award.
It goes to Cha Se Young. Congratulations.
(Junior Elegance Piano Competition)
(Elementary Piano, 3rd place, Cha Se Young)
(Piano, Bronze Award, Cha Se Young)
- Se Young. - Yes?
Mom, when did you get home?
I promise you I'll win first place this time.
You can stop practicing the piano.
Why don't you start focusing on school now?
You're good.
I used to love Hold'em more than anything else,
but I started to hate it
because of those who make people
think of Hold'em as a form of gambling, not a mind sport.
I was wondering if fate brought us together.
They say if you experience recurring coincidences,
it's fate.
Joo Tae Ha?
Why are you so angry? I was just asking how he was doing.
- You jerk. - My gosh!
You had a one-sided crush on me.
- Don't make me look bad. - Is it because of Ko Gun?
It was you, right? Come on! Come here.
Oh, no.
If something happens by chance three times
It's fate?
