[MIHYUN BREATHING HEAVILY]
MOVING
[BELLS JINGLE]
That's a lot of luggage you've got,
it's gonna block the aisle here.
I'm sorry about that.
What would you like?
MENU BEEF SHANK, DONKATSU, GIMBAP
Donkatsu, for one.
It's gonna take awhile to cook it.
I'll wait. That's okay.
Sure, okay. Mm.
MAN 1: An incident is out of the question.
He's surrounded by security.
MAN 2: Yeah, exactly,
I think it definitely has to be a coup.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[YOUNG BONGSEOK GRUNTING]
[SOFT MUSIC]
Bongseok.
[SOBS SOFTLY]
Your mom is tired.
[KNIFE RASPING]
[SOBBING]
This way.
MAN: That's the entrance. Over there.
Come on in.
Wait, so you're gonna live here all alone,
just with your kid?
[GRUNTS] Yes.
- Uh
- And I'll pay 30K.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
- No, 30,000 a month is way too little.
It won't be enough to cover this lease
MIHYUN: I'll pay upfront.
Three years' worth in advance right now.
Ten million won.
Oh.
- MIHYUN: I have one condition.
- What's that?
From now on, don't come in here.
What?
I own this building, why shouldn't I?
Not for long.
One more violation report,
and then you'll lose
the entire property, won't you?
- Just give it back, then.
- Ah, okay.
All right, three years.
Take good care of it.
You really got a bargain.
MAN: It's a completely fine building,
but some son of a bitch
had to go and report it.
Just a bitch, actually.
[GRUNTS]
Honey, there's a lot of space.
MIHYUN: Our house is really big,
isn't it, huh?
He seems a little big to carry, huh?
[PLASTIC RUSTLES]
Does he have a condition, or
You believe he doesn't know?
Know what?
About how you look at him.
About what you're saying.
And I looked at him how?
What're you talking about?
He's not disabled or
or what if he was disabled
and he heard you say that?
[BUTCHER'S SON GRUNTS]
Hey, Mom.
- Where do you want this?
- Oh, you got that.
Take that to the fridge.
The cow's feet can be stacked up
in the freezer, eh?
BUTCHER'S SON: Pork, freezer.
Cow's feet, fridge.
You got it backwards. Say it again.
Pork, freezer fridge!
Cow's feet, free freezer!
[CHUCKLES]
BUTCHER'S SON: Hey, Ma, it's weird.
The candy is almost gone.
Can I have some, Ma?
Two of them, yeah?
You did a great job today, as usual, eh?
BUTCHER: Son, you head home now.
Yeah.
[CHEERS]
See you later!
[SOFT MUSIC]
[SIGHS]
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
I'm sorry for earlier.
Why would you apologize?
You're sorry, what for?
You must have misunderstood my stare
for something else.
To me, it just seemed
that your boy looked a bit
too crammed up back there, you know?
Look, even the way you tied him up
is too tight.
Look, look.
BUTCHER: Don't you see?
You don't have time
to look after yourself now, do you?
It's not just the children.
Mom's have it rough, too.
You have to step back for them to grow.
In the end,
mothers can't be selfish, you know?
As they get bigger,
you gotta give them some space.
How else will they learn, huh?
MIHYUN: Bongseok.
Don't ever forget it.
To keep yourself from floating,
you always have to wear this.
Here.
[SIGHS]
Come on. You try it. Hmm?
There you go.
Here, try again.
You gotta get into the habit.
Left foot, right foot.
BONGSEOK:
It took me forever to learn how to walk.
MIHYUN: Left foot.
BONGSEOK: Every time I tried,
I'd start floating,
and would fall.
That's it. There you go, Bongseok.
[GIGGLES]
[SIGHS]
BONGSEOK:
When she figured out that my floating
was connected to my emotional state,
that's when my mom smiled at me
less and less.
You did great, Bongseok.
[LIGHT MUSIC]
[GRUNTS, BREATHES DEEPLY]
Hey, you did great, sweetie.
You took more than 20 steps today.
There you go.
[YOUNG BONGSEOK GIGGLING]
MIHYUN: Such a great job, honey.
BONGSEOK: When my mother smiled,
it made me happy.
And when she'd hug me,
it also made me happy.

What kind of dream makes
your nose bleed
Oh, god.
Yeah, you're at that age.
That's good, you're healthy!
Time to eat. Here.
BONGSEOK: Uh Whoa, no, that's not it.
Really, I I just banged
my nose, you know.
Right, you just banged it.
- I forget, where was your nose again?
- Uh, no, that's not
I hit my head a bunch and
and then I also hit my nose
on the ceiling.
Also, it's more
I mean it Your head goes all the way
from your neck up, you know?
- So it includes the eyes
- [SIGHS]
uh, the nose, ears, and even the face.
I wish you'd try and apply
all this knowledge and get good grades.
Except, you might be thinking
of the word "hair" when you hear
MIHYUN: Okay, all right. Time to eat.
Wow. I mean, wow,
this is a lot of food to eat.
You're floating 'cause you lost
too much weight recently.
Eat more.
It's still too much, I think.
So, you want to go to bed tied down?
MIHYUN: Eat it all.
Don't scarf it down, chew all your food!
- Eat slower!
- [SLURPS]
I'll pack your bag for you, okay?

[BONGSEOK GRUMBLING]
God! Why are you even going up
the stairs, huh? Go eat!
APRIL 2007
Hey, Ma? Is our home a restaurant now?
Yeah.
I have to earn some money now.
I spent it all to get us this house.
And we need to eat.
[CHUCKLES]
Bongseok.
Try reading that from right here.
NAMSAN DONKATSU
YOUNG BONGSEOK: Hmm "Namsan Donkatsu."
Why is it called Namsan Donkatsu?
Namsan donkatsu is the best donkatsu.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
[BRIGHT MUSIC]
- Have a great day!
- [CHILDREN LAUGHING]
BONGSEOK: When school was over,
I had to come straight home.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
BONGSEOK: I sat in my room for hours,
just watching TV.
So, for a kid like me,
Bungaeman was a hero to me.
Hero.
- BONGSEOK: Hero.
- Amazing!
BONGSEOK: It taught me what a "hero" was.

[EPIC MUSIC PLAYING ON TV]
BONGSEOK:
Someone who can fly as his heart desires.
A hero. That's what a hero is.
Then I thought,
maybe I could fly like that, too.
Power! Lightning!
Lightning Power!
BONGSEOK: I wanted to be a hero, too.
I wanted to become a hero.
[KIDS CHATTERING, LAUGHING]
[CHATTERING CONTINUES]
Lightning, Lightning, Lightning Power!
- Ha!
- [KIDS CHEERING]
ALL: Kim Taehyun!
Kim Taehyun! Kim Taehyun!

[STIFLED COUGH]
[BREATHING NERVOUSLY]
TEACHER:
I guess Bongseok was playing around
a bit dangerously at school.
He jumped so far in fact,
the other kids must have thought
he was really flying.
- [SCREAMS]
- [METAL CLANGS]
TEACHER:
Kids do have quite the imagination.
- [MIHYUN SIGHS]
- However, the school rules are strict
about preventing accidents like this
from recurring.
I had no choice but to ask you to come in.
I'm so sorry.
The injured child, well, is he okay?
Uh, Bongseok, hey. Will you wait outside?
Your mom and I need to have a talk.
TEACHER: Actually, I'm sorry to say,
the boy that fell
is quite heavily injured, in fact.
MIHYUN: Oh, god, I'm sorry.

NAMSAN DONKATSU
[WAILING]
YOUNG BONGSEOK: He showed off first.
He can't even fly, but he said he could.
Bongseok. I want you to listen.
Never do that again, understand me?
Why?
Why not? Ma, I could do it.
You said I had this power.
What do you think power is?
Empathy is what real power looks like.
Having the ability to care and understand
the emotions of others.
MIHYUN: What kind of hero breaks
other people's hearts?
Is that what a hero does?
It must have been scary for him,
but you showed off.
MIHYUN:
And you did in front of your friends,
you acted like you were better than him.
Bongseok, what you did
wasn't admirable at all.
Hero?
That's not it.
A hero has compassion towards others.
I figured you knew that.

You might wanna get out
of the rain, huh? Get on.
I'll go.
I'm sorry.
- CARD READER: Transfer valid.

You were waiting for that girl
to show up from yesterday.
I guess your girlfriend's already gone.

ILHWAN: Nope. The rules are the rules.

Yeah, that's that's right.
The rules are the rules.
Yeah. Um,
the small things have to
have to be maintained.
BOTH: You be quiet.
Hey. That Hollywood stunt was a bit much.
She's probably half your weight,
and you go flying like that?
No, I'd say I'm more like a quarter.
What am I, a truck or something?
So dramatic, jeez.
Anyway, you're cleaning, so
What? Aw, Mr. Choi.
I swear I won't be late from now on.
I sprinted all the way here!
- ILHWAN: From home?
- Yeah.
She did. I watched her from the bus.
I was working out. I started training.
Then you should've been faster
to not be late.
Aw, Mr. Choi!
ILHWAN: You'd be cleaning anyway
because of the dress code.
I was gonna go buy it today, after class.
The uniform isn't the issue,
it's what you're wearing over it.
Anyway, cleaning duty.
Go on in, class is starting soon.
Yes, sir.

Hey.
Do you have your PE uniform with you?
Mm-hm. Well, yeah. It's in my locker. Why?
Can I borrow it?
Right now, my clothes smell
from all that running I did.
But it'll look big on you, I think.
That doesn't really matter, though.
You're the only one I know here.
[SNIFFING]
- I appreciate it.

Oh,

to keep from losing it.

We'll take care of it
as soon as we identify the culprit.
No.
Just ID who's doing this.
WOONKYU: Excuse me?
I'm going to keep a close eye on it.
REPORTER [ON TV]: An electrical surge
caused a fire at a second-hand bookstore
in Songpa-gu, Seoul.
After the fire was put out, Mr. Jeon,
the owner of the bookstore,
was found dead by the firefighters
investigating the scene.
It's unknown if Mr. Jeon's cause of death
was directly related to the fire,
and is under review
as part of the investigation.
However, the cameras
in the immediate vicinity
were also destroyed,
and officials are trying
to piece it all together.
The police investigation is ongoing,
and they'll be interviewing
any eyewitnesses.
The store owner's body will be transferred
to the National Forensic Service
to determine the exact cause of death.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Whoa. That's pretty.
What are you doing?
Nothing.
Excuse me.
I'm getting three types of uniforms,
so, I can get a discount, right?
No discount, 210,000 won.
Can I at least get the initials?
No, the dry cleaners can do that
for an extra charge.
[SIGHS] I think that buying this amount
- should at least
- No.
The dry cleaner's down there
will do that for you.
STORE OWNER: 5,000 won, I think.
To do them all?
No, of course not. It's per initials.
Two PE and one normal uniform,
that's about
[GASPS]
That'll be 20K.
So, are you super rich or something?
Oh, this is just
My mom stitched this for me.
Your mom could help out.
My mom's gone. She died when I was young.
I don't think
she could have done that, either.
Yours is really skilled.
Oh, she's always been talented
with the sewing machine.
Uh, you want me to ask my mom?
Forget it. Don't bother.
How much is it?
God, I'm starving.
Me, too.
I had to skip out on lunch earlier.
Same here.
Why?
Oh. Just 'cause.
Did you not have lunch
'cause you were waiting on me earlier?
Well, you said
the only person you know is me.
So you thought I would be eating alone?
Mm.
Let's make a quick stop.
I'll get you
some chicken soup with noodles.
BONGSEOK: What?
And for your information,
this is a big deal,
'cause I don't usually ever treat
anyone else.
Okay. Cool.
HUISOO: I'm being serious.
BONGSEOK: I know. Thanks!
