WELCOME
WE WILL SERVE YOU THE BEST WE CAN
Miss Lee Jeong-ju?
Yes.
Here is your new identification card.
Thank you.
You have to vote in Jeju now.
This is where you'll grow old now.
LEE JEONG-JU
Geon-u.
We close every Saturdays and Sundays.
The first and third Tuesdays,
and the second and fourth Wednesdays
of the month.
Would you like me to put you down
for that time?
Sure, will do.
Okay.
I guess people do make reservations.
I never see anyone in here, so I wondered
if you actually had a business.
What brings you here? Geon-u stepped out.
He did?
I wanted to borrow something.
Do you have a lot of reservations?
It looks like we're going
to be busy next week.
When Boo Mira featured the restaurant on
her blog, we got a bunch of reservations.
Boo Mira? The novelist who
lives here in Jeju?
Yes. She's a regular.
She writes a lot about Sorang Village.
Is this Geon-u?
RELATED TO SORANG VILLAGE
CHEF BAEK, OF WARM AND COZY
It is him.
"Chef Baek at Warm and Cozy
is a romantic guy."
They say that he met his first love
here in Jeju.
On his 19th birthday,
-like the waves that crash
-All done.
onto the Jeju shores,
his first love swept him away.
His 19th birthday
was when I claimed that we were twins.
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Pung-san said
you wanted to borrow a ladder.
Yes.
Why didn't you come by for lunch?
I settled for some cup ramen.
Why you
You shouldn't be eating stuff like this!
You are what you eat!
Hey, what's wrong with your face?
Are you sick?
No. I'm just a little dizzy and
Is it bad? Do you need a doctor?
No.
It's because I was reading
something online for too long.
What were you reading?
Something that made me angry.
That's because you're hungry.
You get angry when you don't
have enough calcium.
Calcium?
This is the perfect time
for some mel noodles.
-What's mel?
-You'll see.
Once you appreciate that,
you'll be like a local.
Come to think of it,
I haven't had any this spring.
Anyway, what do you plan to do with this?
It's supposed to rain today,
so I wanted to fix up the roof.
I want to patch the holes temporarily.
You can't do things like this
half-heartedly!
You should fix it right the first time!
Seriously
Hey. Leave it. I'll do it.
What if the roof flies off
because you didn't do it right?
Do you have any idea
how strong the winds are in Jeju?
You need to do it right.
Hello?
You already have an estimate
for the renovations?
I'll be right there.
I need to go discuss the renovation costs
with the contractor.
Don't decide now. Let's discuss it tonight
before you decide.
Let's talk over a delicious dinner.
We'll have a party.
A party for what?
You're officially a Jeju resident now.
It'll be a welcome party.
I'll make you something really tasty.
You go ahead. I'll fix your roof for you
while you're gone.
Okay. I'll see you later then.
Okay.
Don't worry about a thing.
-Jeong-ju!
-What?
Good luck with the meeting.
I'll have dinner ready.
Okay.
Yes. I'll tell her everything
over some good food.
I should remove this first.
Why did this come out?
This is harder than it looks.
Maybe I should've called a professional.
Who's calling?
JI-WON
-Hi, Ji-won.
-Hey, Geon-u.
You know that I'm in Seoul,
but you never called.
I'm hurt.
I've been a bit busy.
Just kidding.
It's really nice out today.
How is the weather in Jeju?
It's beautiful.
The weather is a bit erratic,
but on warm days like today
when the ocean is calm,
it's the absolute best.
Should I go to Jeju?
When?
If I leave now,
I can make it in time for dinner.
If I go, will you make me something good?
Yes. Of course!
Are you really coming now?
Yes. I'll call you when I land.
What do I do?
Whatever.
I have octopus, meat, and vegetables.
I'll make a salad and fry up some stuff.
What should I make for dessert?
Pung-san, where are the apple mangos
that we got from the farm?
Why?
They're in the storage room upstairs.
Do you need it for the dinner menu?
We're closing tonight.
We're not accepting customers.
Someone's coming.
Who? Is it Ji-won?
I have all the ingredients for dinner.
Champagne.
I wonder if they'll have the one she likes
on the island.
This is way too high.
It's more than double my budget.
Miss.
Patios are expensive.
And supplies cost 30% more here
than they do on the mainland.
I can't afford this.
Can you find something a little cheaper?
Seriously. There's nothing cheaper.
Come on, Mr. Kim.
A young lady came from Seoul
that is trying to save as much as she can.
We should help her.
Look into it for her.
Come back the day after tomorrow.
I will. Thank you.
The sky is dark. It looks like
we'll be seeing rain tonight.
I know. This weather calls
for a nice bowl of mel noodles.
Excuse me,
what's a mel?
So mel is anchovies.
In Jeju, we use mel
to make the broth, and we braise them too.
In Seoul, you dip pork
in salted shrimp, right?
Here we use salted mel.
I'll take some of this.
Sure.
Yes. My car keys.
That's right.
Jeong-geun froze my accounts.
Hi, Mr. Jeong. Could you get me
two bottles of that champagne?
I'll go to the resort to get them.
I'll pay in cash,
so don't tell my brother.
See you soon.
LEE JEONG-JU, WE APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK
It's difficult to find someone
with proper PR experience.
People with experience
don't want to come down to Jeju.
Someone I know worked at the Pierrot Hotel
in New York and came back to Korea.
The Pierrot Hotel?
That would make her an optimal hire.
JEONG-GEUN
Hi, Jeong-geun. How are you?
Yes. What's up?
I'd like to talk to you about something.
Do you have time?
Right now?
Of course. I'm free.
I'll go to the resort.
Okay.
Hi, Ji-won. Did you land?
Sorry, Geon-u,
but I can't go to Jeju after all.
There's an emergency at my dad's hospital.
Really?
I really wanted to see Jeju in the spring.
I promise to come by before spring ends.
I promise. Sorry.
Your champagne is ready.
Right, the champagne.
WARM AND COZY
I know he wanted to have a party,
but is he closing for it?
Geon-u.
How are you closed more often
than you're open
for business
Jeong-ju.
We're closed tonight.
I saw the sign that you're closed.
But what is all of this?
Geon-u told me to prepare them.
He's cooking something special tonight.
I know he said it was a party,
but he didn't need to go all out.
Oh, my gosh.
It's a heart. How pretty.
It's Geon-u's heart.
It's his first love after all.
Do you know about Geon-u's first love too?
Of course. I heard about her
every year on his birthday.
He met her on his birthday.
He may seem unfocused
and flirty with everyone,
but he's a romantic at heart.
-Isn't it touching?
-It totally is.
Aren't the strawberries super pretty?
She likes cute things,
so he spent a lot of time making them.
It's really cute.
Doesn't it look sweet
and like it'll melt in your mouth?
-It is sweet.
-Hey!
Why did you eat that?
You've ruined the heart!
I just wanted a taste--
Why would you eat that?
It's for the girl that Geon-u likes!
They'll be here any minute now.
Wait. That girl he likes
-is coming here?
-He's picking her up at the airport now.
Mok Ji-won, Geon-u's first love.
Don't put that back! Gross!
Just finish it.
Okay.
Actually, she's the reason
he opened this restaurant.
He followed her here to Jeju.
But before the restaurant opened,
she betrayed him and went to New York.
He always talks about selling this place,
but seeing as how he still hasn't left,
I think,
he was waiting for her to come back.
Anyway,
she's finally coming
after all that waiting.
Hey. You have chocolate on your face.
Don't eat things
that are meant for someone else.
But what's that?
This?
It's nothing.
I'll go and put it in the fridge.
Yes, that's the one.
I asked my friend at Duty Free
to get it for me.
I see. Thank you.
Ms. Mok Ji-won?
Yes?
The meeting is running a bit long.
Do you mind waiting a while longer?
That's fine. I'll wait here.
Would you like some tea?
-No, thank you.
-Okay.
Mr. Song will come down
as soon as his meeting ends.
-Okay.
-Okay, then.
Geon-u!
Shoot. What the heck?
Why did he take these out?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, no.
I'm screwed.
What do I do?
My bags!
Wait. Where did I put my raincoat?
Geon-u!
Here it is.
My key.
Geon-u.
You've lost your mind.
I'm so hungry.
Of course it's not here.
That's right.
I have instant noodles.
Why did he throw them away
when he wasn't even going to cook for me?
I'm going to take the mel back
and put them in my noodles.
Geon-u. Is your party over already?
Are you passed out drunk?
It looks expensive just from the bottle.
If you're done with your party,
we need to talk.
I didn't want to interrupt
your romantic time with your first love,
but if you're done, let's talk.
What do you want?
Where did you put my gold key?
It's missing. Did you take it?
I borrowed it.
Borrowed it for what?
Did you sell it?
I sold it and used the money.
Did you
sell my gold to buy this?
Yes.
How could you sell that?
And you spent it on this? Are you insane?
You said you wanted to sell it too!
I'll pay you back in cash. Satisfied?
Stop annoying me,
and get out.
You're a real douchebag, you know that?
What?
You scam your family, steal from others,
and you're shameless
and think you did nothing wrong.
All you do is lie.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Pay me back this instant.
I'll pay you back.
Here's 100 won for now.
Happy? Take it.
-What?
-Is that not enough?
Here's 500 won.
Pick it up and go.
Yes,
I'm a beggar.
You probably saw me as a beggar
since I took everything you threw at me
out of pity.
But you're garbage.
You kept your old promise to the T.
You really did become a total dog.
A son of a bitch.
But!
This is too dirty
that even I don't want it!
What's wrong with this now?
She isn't sleeping in there
during the storm, is she?
Jeong-ju!
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Jeong-ju!
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Hey! What are you doing up there?
Come down! It's dangerous!
Leave me alone! Mind your own business!
Why you
Come down! What if you fall?
-Get off of me!
-Hey!
No!
Oh, my gosh! Oh, no!
No!
No!
It's mel.
What?
Not "what," but mel.
Mel noodles.
Let's eat.
Is it mendorong ddoddot?
You call this "mendorong ddoddot."
In Jeju, it means warm and cozy.
It is warm.
Let's eat. I'm starving.
You're hungry after stealing my gold
and having a party?
I couldn't eat anything. She didn't come.
Finish it while it's still warm.
I thought "mendorong ddoddot" was French,
but I guess it's a Jeju saying.
Yes.
My dad taught my mom that phrase.
Was your father from Jeju?
Yes.
Did your mother tell you?
Yes. On our birthday when you came to me.
That was the first and last time
she spoke about my father.
Do you get it?
That's the truth
about your father.
Come to think of it,
it was the first day I met Ji-won as well.
Are you okay?
Now that I think about it,
the day you showed up
was quite a historical day in my life.
I heard about my father
and I met Ji-won that day.
It must have been a happy day for you.
It sure was. Very happy.
I think that's when Geon-u started
to change.
On his birthday.
When Mom told him about his real father.
It was shocking for me too.
It must have been worse for him.
Exactly.
So go easy on him
even if he causes trouble,
be like a father.
Geon-u.
Yes?
We're out of alcohol.
No, you're wrong.
There's more right here.
Ta-da!
You're paying for all of this.
You still have to pay me back for my gold.
Fine.
But you know,
it was only five don,
not seven don.
What?
I assumed it was seven don
since I worked there for seven years.
How could they rob me of two years?
That rotten company!
You did the right thing.
Saying, "screw you," and leaving
was the right thing to do.
No.
If they'd take me back,
I'd go in a heartbeat.
Hey, Jeong-ju. Stop that.
That must hurt.
Geon-u. You see,
I'm hurting here
and here. so badly.
So much, that I feel like I'm dying.
Being in pain isn't a big deal right now.
The roof of my house
flew away.
What should I do?
You can always put the roof back on.
A new, pretty one.
Sure. How about a blue roof?
I don't have the money!
I didn't have enough
even when I had a roof,
I definitely can't afford a new one.
I have zero money.
Geon-u,
I have to live
without a roof.
When it rains like today,
I'll have to get soaked and live with it.
It's not like
our lives are even that long
Hey, Jeong-ju! Don't you worry about it!
I'll block the rain!
I have long arms.
I'll cover you like this.
It was my last wish
to fix up the place
before Jeong-min gets back,
and running the cafe with him
with the coffee beans
from Sao Paulo.
Geon-u, my last wish
was blown away with the wind
like the roof.
Hey, Jeong-ju.
Is that really
your last wish?
Then
should I give you
Warm and Cozy?
-What?
-Do you want to run it?
Should I give this to you?
For real?
Yes.
Yes, give it to me.
Sure. I'll give it to you.
Come in.
See? You can turn this into a bedroom.
You can live here.
You're right.
It's a room with a sturdy roof.
You said that you have 50 million won,
right?
Give it to me as a deposit.
I can pay off my debt
and go back to Seoul,
and you can run this place.
I'll let you borrow it.
If you lend me that,
you'll have to wait until I die.
Jeong-ju.
People don't die that easily.
You can live a long life.
I'm going to live a crazy long life.
But,
can you really
let me borrow this place until I die?
Sure. You can borrow it
until the day you die.
So don't die too soon.
Don't die, Jeong-ju.
My goodness. All right.
I won't die. I'll live for a long time.
Don't die.
All right.
Don't die, okay?
I think we'll need more
No Smoking signs around the resort.
Our non-smoking guests
have been complaining.
Instead of telling our guests
that they can't smoke,
we should direct them to the smoking area.
I think that would be better.
Just because you tell someone not to smoke
doesn't mean it's easy for them not to.
I've been trying to quit,
but it's nearly impossible.
Mr. Song, has it been
three months now
since you've quit smoking?
-Yes.
-Do you have a secret method?
I can't even last a week.
It's a simple matter of willpower.
Your willpower must be solid steel.
I should learn from you.
You have my utmost respect.
It's admirable.
I can't do it, no matter how hard I try.
I know.
Mr. Song, it is such an honor for me
to work for you.
Even the way you quit smoking.
When you decide to do something,
you stick to it and never waver.
It's really admirable.
Pull over.
Yes, sir.
I'm going to get some fresh air,
so you go on ahead.
Sir?
Don't wait for me. Go on.
It's all about willpower.
I'll swear upon the ocean.
This is my last one.
This is really the last one.
That's it. This is the end.
I should've quit.
Hey. Are you okay?
Yes.
You need to live, no matter what!
Life is too precious to throw away!
If you think you can live,
get up and follow me.
Okay.
Come here and warm yourself.
Are you a haenyeo?
I think
you are mistaken about something.
I
You can feel the cold
because you're alive.
Say ah.
Chew.
You can eat tasty food like that
because you're alive and breathing.
Ah.
I don't know what made you
jump into the ocean to die,
but be strong and stay alive.
SORANG DIVERS ASSOCIATION
SORANG VILLAGE
FISHING VILLAGE SOCIETY
You can take the bus from here.
I don't have my wallet
and my phone doesn't work,
so I'll take this, but I'll pay you back.
How can I contact you?
Do haenyeos have business cards?
You don't have to pay me back.
I'm not asking for your number
just to pay back 30,000 won.
What's the most expensive thing
haenyeos collect from the sea?
Abalone? Sea squirt?
Whatever it is,
I guarantee you, even if you add up
every abalone, conch, sea squirt,
sea cucumber you've ever caught,
it doesn't compare to saving me.
I see you're full of energy
after having that abalone.
Are you telling me
you'll dump the black pearl
that you pulled out
without even opening it up
and taking a look?
Have a good life.
Hey!
Hey! Haenyeo!
I'm a black pearl!
A black pearl this big!
That woman
I hope she's okay.
Did I drink too much last night?
My head is pounding.
Then
should I give you
Warm and Cozy?
Was that a dream?
It was real. It's the contract.
LEASE AGREEMEN
PROPERTY: WARM AND COZY
AMOUNT: 50 MILLION WON
TERMINATION DATE: THE DAY JEONG-JU DIES
My 50 million won.
I'm shooting over
the rest of my entire life savings.
Shoot!
50,0000,000 WON
Is this really my restaurant now?
I'll leave you my restaurant
until the day you die.
Live long, Jeong-ju.
WARM AND COZY
So this really is my place from now on?
For real? Really?
I saw you in Jeju the other day.
You were at my brother's resort, right?
Oh, you saw me?
Yes. I didn't go up to you
because I was afraid that
I'd get mad at you.
But I'm not mad anymore.
I'm sure you had your reasons.
You've always had your reasons
in the past as well.
That's why I wanted to see you.
I have something to tell you, as well.
You should've said hello.
I was at the resort for a job.
I'm thinking about working in Jeju again.
What?
I wanted to surprise you,
but you found out.
You're coming to Jeju?
I'm going to join the resort's
public relations team starting next week.
Isn't that great?
I can eat at your restaurant
every day now.
Is it okay if I go?
What? Of course.
You can come whenever you want.
Hui-ra!
Hui-ra. I need 50 million won.
Jeong-geun said you'd come. He was right.
-No.
-What? Why not?
He found out you were betting
at the tracks.
He said he'd cut me off too,
if I gave you money.
Sorry.
For now,
we'll sell simple salads and sandwiches
and think about what to offer
going forward.
Could you please stay
and help me until then?
Sure.
-But
-Yes?
Can you cook?
I can always learn.
There's nothing I can't do
if I put my mind to it.
But
do you really plan to turn
Warm and Cozy into a noodle soup
or a raw fish soup place?
Yes. We need to sell something
that makes money.
To be blunt, the stuff Geon-u sold
doesn't make any money.
That's right.
If we use the free ingredients
provided by the ocean,
there will be almost no overhead.
Pung-san, let's make money together.
Money!
Sure. Okay.
I'll head into town
to pick up the vegetables.
Okay. Give me that.
Hurry back!
Hi, Jeong-ju.
Geon-u.
What are you doing here?
What does it look like? I'm cooking.
Jeong-ju, what do you want to eat?
Just say the word. I'll make them all.
GOOD LUCK WITH WARM AND COZY
NEW OWNER JEONG-JU
This is what they call a lucky money tree.
Jeong-ju, I hope you make a lot of money.
Thanks.
But weren't you going back to Seoul?
I did,
but I kept seeing Warm and Cozy
in my dreams.
I had no idea,
but this restaurant must have occupied
a big part of my brain.
You appeared out of the blue,
so I was afraid you'd say the contract
was void because we were drunk.
Even if we were drunk,
we signed a contract.
The legality doesn't evaporate
like alcohol.
Plus, if I wanted to say it was void,
would I have brought this?
I would've brought a lawyer to fight.
Well, that's a relief then.
Hey. What's that sound?
What sound?
The hood must be acting up again!
Seriously.
What? The hood?
I knew it. This broke again.
It's broken? It was fine just moments ago.
No, listen to it.
Right? Hear that?
Isn't that normal when it's on?
No! It's usually really quiet.
Jeong-ju, I'm sorry.
I should've fixed the place up
before handing it over to you.
I'll take the next couple of days
to fix up the place.
No, it's okay.
I don't think that will be necessary.
You have a customer.
I've heard that this place is good.
What should we have? They can make you
anything you want to eat.
-Welcome.
-Are you open?
I'm sorry. We're closing for a few days
due to some circumstances.
No, we're good. Please grab a table.
I told you, I can only make
sandwiches right now.
-I can cook.
-You?
You can't serve customers
just pieces of bread.
-What are you doing? Go on.
-Okay.
Geon-u?
What are you doing?
Leave that there and take their order.
Okay.
-Hey.
-What's Geon-u doing here?
I'm not sure. He said he was worried
about this place.
He did?
I didn't even ask for his help,
but he's cooking now.
He rarely does things he needs to do,
but he's working voluntarily?
He doesn't seem to be here
to cancel the contract.
What's going on?
Come in.
-Hello.
-It's so pretty.
Come in! Pung-san, we have customers!
We have roasted black pig, seafood mix,
fresh cut noodles,
and cutlass soup.
Here's the black pork.
Three more mendorongs.
-Okay!
-Excuse me!
Yes?
-Please enjoy.
-Thank you.
My gosh.
WARM AND COZY
We've had a busy day today.
Goodness.
Anyway, why is Geon-u back?
What's this?
That's mine. Leave it there.
Hey, you need to change the shower head.
I prefer to shower
under a strong stream of water.
You took a shower here? Why?
I told you I'm staying here
for the time being.
Did you not mean you were going
to help out with the restaurant?
Your house--
That was a rental.
Someone moved in as soon as I moved out.
So you're planning to sleep here?
Come on. I wouldn't share a bed with you.
Ta-da!
I have a fold-away bed here!
You didn't know, did you?
This is going to be too uncomfortable.
Don't worry. I'm not high maintenance.
You sleep comfortably in there.
It's a bit uncomfortable,
but I'll sleep here by the door.
Dream on and get out.
Sure. I expected her
to kick me out at least once.
JI-WON
Hey, Ji-won.
How's the move coming along?
Good. I'm a bit tired today.
I should've helped before coming down.
Do you need anything?
I'll have everything ready for you.
Let's go together when I get there.
I can't wait to check out your restaurant.
Is there anything you want to eat?
Just say the word. I'll make them all.
I want seafood.
-Abalone?
-Okay.
I'll get the freshest abalone available.
That's a big piece of luggage.
It doesn't look like he's leaving
in a few days.
She's more rigid than I expected.
What should I do?
What do you want this time?
It's a bit chilly outside,
so I'm looking for something to wear.
Jeong-ju! Did you hear that just now?
Hear what?
Something just flew by the window!
-It's probably a stray cat.
-What if it's a burglar?
You said there were no thieves in Jeju.
That was in the past.
It's not like that anymore!
With the recent influx of outsiders,
this place isn't free of crime anymore!
I've locked the doors,
so we'll be all right.
No! That's not true!
I'm nervous sleeping outside,
and I'm worried
about leaving you here alone.
So I'll sleep here just for today.
Get out.
What will you do if I get attacked
in the middle of the night?
If you sleep up here, I'll attack you
and it'll be much worse!
Get out. I said to get out.
-Get out.
-I'm leaving.
What will you do if I get attacked
in the middle of the night?
It must be cold down there.
Geon-u.
He made his bed here, but Goodness.
Where did he go in the cold?
Let me stay here for the time being.
I'm broke and I have nowhere to go.
I won't take you in either.
Get out.
I can't stop thinking about you.
This is the last time.
Let's eat together.
Even this looks pretty.
I bought it with my own money, okay?
Hey. Do you like Jeong-ju?
This is so frustrating! Is she an idiot?
Did you just swear at me?
They look good together.
I heard if you get involved at all,
you have to get married.
What? The mayor said that?
Subtitle translation by Jeong Lee
WELCOME
WE WILL SERVE YOU THE BEST WE CAN
Miss Lee Jeong-ju?
Yes.
Here is your new identification card.
Thank you.
You have to vote in Jeju now.
This is where you'll grow old now.
LEE JEONG-JU
Geon-u.
We close every Saturdays and Sundays.
The first and third Tuesdays,
and the second and fourth Wednesdays
of the month.
Would you like me to put you down
for that time?
Sure, will do.
Okay.
I guess people do make reservations.
I never see anyone in here, so I wondered
if you actually had a business.
What brings you here? Geon-u stepped out.
He did?
I wanted to borrow something.
Do you have a lot of reservations?
It looks like we're going
to be busy next week.
When Boo Mira featured the restaurant on
her blog, we got a bunch of reservations.
Boo Mira? The novelist who
lives here in Jeju?
Yes. She's a regular.
She writes a lot about Sorang Village.
Is this Geon-u?
RELATED TO SORANG VILLAGE
CHEF BAEK, OF WARM AND COZY
It is him.
"Chef Baek at Warm and Cozy
is a romantic guy."
They say that he met his first love
here in Jeju.
On his 19th birthday,
-like the waves that crash
-All done.
onto the Jeju shores,
his first love swept him away.
His 19th birthday
was when I claimed that we were twins.
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Pung-san said
you wanted to borrow a ladder.
Yes.
Why didn't you come by for lunch?
I settled for some cup ramen.
Why you
You shouldn't be eating stuff like this!
You are what you eat!
Hey, what's wrong with your face?
Are you sick?
No. I'm just a little dizzy and
Is it bad? Do you need a doctor?
No.
It's because I was reading
something online for too long.
What were you reading?
Something that made me angry.
That's because you're hungry.
You get angry when you don't
have enough calcium.
Calcium?
This is the perfect time
for some mel noodles.
-What's mel?
-You'll see.
Once you appreciate that,
you'll be like a local.
Come to think of it,
I haven't had any this spring.
Anyway, what do you plan to do with this?
It's supposed to rain today,
so I wanted to fix up the roof.
I want to patch the holes temporarily.
You can't do things like this
half-heartedly!
You should fix it right the first time!
Seriously
Hey. Leave it. I'll do it.
What if the roof flies off
because you didn't do it right?
Do you have any idea
how strong the winds are in Jeju?
You need to do it right.
Hello?
You already have an estimate
for the renovations?
I'll be right there.
I need to go discuss the renovation costs
with the contractor.
Don't decide now. Let's discuss it tonight
before you decide.
Let's talk over a delicious dinner.
We'll have a party.
A party for what?
You're officially a Jeju resident now.
It'll be a welcome party.
I'll make you something really tasty.
You go ahead. I'll fix your roof for you
while you're gone.
Okay. I'll see you later then.
Okay.
Don't worry about a thing.
-Jeong-ju!
-What?
Good luck with the meeting.
I'll have dinner ready.
Okay.
Yes. I'll tell her everything
over some good food.
I should remove this first.
Why did this come out?
This is harder than it looks.
Maybe I should've called a professional.
Who's calling?
JI-WON
-Hi, Ji-won.
-Hey, Geon-u.
You know that I'm in Seoul,
but you never called.
I'm hurt.
I've been a bit busy.
Just kidding.
It's really nice out today.
How is the weather in Jeju?
It's beautiful.
The weather is a bit erratic,
but on warm days like today
when the ocean is calm,
it's the absolute best.
Should I go to Jeju?
When?
If I leave now,
I can make it in time for dinner.
If I go, will you make me something good?
Yes. Of course!
Are you really coming now?
Yes. I'll call you when I land.
What do I do?
Whatever.
I have octopus, meat, and vegetables.
I'll make a salad and fry up some stuff.
What should I make for dessert?
Pung-san, where are the apple mangos
that we got from the farm?
Why?
They're in the storage room upstairs.
Do you need it for the dinner menu?
We're closing tonight.
We're not accepting customers.
Someone's coming.
Who? Is it Ji-won?
I have all the ingredients for dinner.
Champagne.
I wonder if they'll have the one she likes
on the island.
This is way too high.
It's more than double my budget.
Miss.
Patios are expensive.
And supplies cost 30% more here
than they do on the mainland.
I can't afford this.
Can you find something a little cheaper?
Seriously. There's nothing cheaper.
Come on, Mr. Kim.
A young lady came from Seoul
that is trying to save as much as she can.
We should help her.
Look into it for her.
Come back the day after tomorrow.
I will. Thank you.
The sky is dark. It looks like
we'll be seeing rain tonight.
I know. This weather calls
for a nice bowl of mel noodles.
Excuse me,
what's a mel?
So mel is anchovies.
In Jeju, we use mel
to make the broth, and we braise them too.
In Seoul, you dip pork
in salted shrimp, right?
Here we use salted mel.
I'll take some of this.
Sure.
Yes. My car keys.
That's right.
Jeong-geun froze my accounts.
Hi, Mr. Jeong. Could you get me
two bottles of that champagne?
I'll go to the resort to get them.
I'll pay in cash,
so don't tell my brother.
See you soon.
LEE JEONG-JU, WE APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK
It's difficult to find someone
with proper PR experience.
People with experience
don't want to come down to Jeju.
Someone I know worked at the Pierrot Hotel
in New York and came back to Korea.
The Pierrot Hotel?
That would make her an optimal hire.
JEONG-GEUN
Hi, Jeong-geun. How are you?
Yes. What's up?
I'd like to talk to you about something.
Do you have time?
Right now?
Of course. I'm free.
I'll go to the resort.
Okay.
Hi, Ji-won. Did you land?
Sorry, Geon-u,
but I can't go to Jeju after all.
There's an emergency at my dad's hospital.
Really?
I really wanted to see Jeju in the spring.
I promise to come by before spring ends.
I promise. Sorry.
Your champagne is ready.
Right, the champagne.
WARM AND COZY
I know he wanted to have a party,
but is he closing for it?
Geon-u.
How are you closed more often
than you're open
for business
Jeong-ju.
We're closed tonight.
I saw the sign that you're closed.
But what is all of this?
Geon-u told me to prepare them.
He's cooking something special tonight.
I know he said it was a party,
but he didn't need to go all out.
Oh, my gosh.
It's a heart. How pretty.
It's Geon-u's heart.
It's his first love after all.
Do you know about Geon-u's first love too?
Of course. I heard about her
every year on his birthday.
He met her on his birthday.
He may seem unfocused
and flirty with everyone,
but he's a romantic at heart.
-Isn't it touching?
-It totally is.
Aren't the strawberries super pretty?
She likes cute things,
so he spent a lot of time making them.
It's really cute.
Doesn't it look sweet
and like it'll melt in your mouth?
-It is sweet.
-Hey!
Why did you eat that?
You've ruined the heart!
I just wanted a taste--
Why would you eat that?
It's for the girl that Geon-u likes!
They'll be here any minute now.
Wait. That girl he likes
-is coming here?
-He's picking her up at the airport now.
Mok Ji-won, Geon-u's first love.
Don't put that back! Gross!
Just finish it.
Okay.
Actually, she's the reason
he opened this restaurant.
He followed her here to Jeju.
But before the restaurant opened,
she betrayed him and went to New York.
He always talks about selling this place,
but seeing as how he still hasn't left,
I think,
he was waiting for her to come back.
Anyway,
she's finally coming
after all that waiting.
Hey. You have chocolate on your face.
Don't eat things
that are meant for someone else.
But what's that?
This?
It's nothing.
I'll go and put it in the fridge.
Yes, that's the one.
I asked my friend at Duty Free
to get it for me.
I see. Thank you.
Ms. Mok Ji-won?
Yes?
The meeting is running a bit long.
Do you mind waiting a while longer?
That's fine. I'll wait here.
Would you like some tea?
-No, thank you.
-Okay.
Mr. Song will come down
as soon as his meeting ends.
-Okay.
-Okay, then.
Geon-u!
Shoot. What the heck?
Why did he take these out?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, no.
I'm screwed.
What do I do?
My bags!
Wait. Where did I put my raincoat?
Geon-u!
Here it is.
My key.
Geon-u.
You've lost your mind.
I'm so hungry.
Of course it's not here.
That's right.
I have instant noodles.
Why did he throw them away
when he wasn't even going to cook for me?
I'm going to take the mel back
and put them in my noodles.
Geon-u. Is your party over already?
Are you passed out drunk?
It looks expensive just from the bottle.
If you're done with your party,
we need to talk.
I didn't want to interrupt
your romantic time with your first love,
but if you're done, let's talk.
What do you want?
Where did you put my gold key?
It's missing. Did you take it?
I borrowed it.
Borrowed it for what?
Did you sell it?
I sold it and used the money.
Did you
sell my gold to buy this?
Yes.
How could you sell that?
And you spent it on this? Are you insane?
You said you wanted to sell it too!
I'll pay you back in cash. Satisfied?
Stop annoying me,
and get out.
You're a real douchebag, you know that?
What?
You scam your family, steal from others,
and you're shameless
and think you did nothing wrong.
All you do is lie.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
Pay me back this instant.
I'll pay you back.
Here's 100 won for now.
Happy? Take it.
-What?
-Is that not enough?
Here's 500 won.
Pick it up and go.
Yes,
I'm a beggar.
You probably saw me as a beggar
since I took everything you threw at me
out of pity.
But you're garbage.
You kept your old promise to the T.
You really did become a total dog.
A son of a bitch.
But!
This is too dirty
that even I don't want it!
What's wrong with this now?
She isn't sleeping in there
during the storm, is she?
Jeong-ju!
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Jeong-ju!
Hey, Jeong-ju!
Hey! What are you doing up there?
Come down! It's dangerous!
Leave me alone! Mind your own business!
Why you
Come down! What if you fall?
-Get off of me!
-Hey!
No!
Oh, my gosh! Oh, no!
No!
No!
It's mel.
What?
Not "what," but mel.
Mel noodles.
Let's eat.
Is it mendorong ddoddot?
You call this "mendorong ddoddot."
In Jeju, it means warm and cozy.
It is warm.
Let's eat. I'm starving.
You're hungry after stealing my gold
and having a party?
I couldn't eat anything. She didn't come.
Finish it while it's still warm.
I thought "mendorong ddoddot" was French,
but I guess it's a Jeju saying.
Yes.
My dad taught my mom that phrase.
Was your father from Jeju?
Yes.
Did your mother tell you?
Yes. On our birthday when you came to me.
That was the first and last time
she spoke about my father.
Do you get it?
That's the truth
about your father.
Come to think of it,
it was the first day I met Ji-won as well.
Are you okay?
Now that I think about it,
the day you showed up
was quite a historical day in my life.
I heard about my father
and I met Ji-won that day.
It must have been a happy day for you.
It sure was. Very happy.
I think that's when Geon-u started
to change.
On his birthday.
When Mom told him about his real father.
It was shocking for me too.
It must have been worse for him.
Exactly.
So go easy on him
even if he causes trouble,
be like a father.
Geon-u.
Yes?
We're out of alcohol.
No, you're wrong.
There's more right here.
Ta-da!
You're paying for all of this.
You still have to pay me back for my gold.
Fine.
But you know,
it was only five don,
not seven don.
What?
I assumed it was seven don
since I worked there for seven years.
How could they rob me of two years?
That rotten company!
You did the right thing.
Saying, "screw you," and leaving
was the right thing to do.
No.
If they'd take me back,
I'd go in a heartbeat.
Hey, Jeong-ju. Stop that.
That must hurt.
Geon-u. You see,
I'm hurting here
and here. so badly.
So much, that I feel like I'm dying.
Being in pain isn't a big deal right now.
The roof of my house
flew away.
What should I do?
You can always put the roof back on.
A new, pretty one.
Sure. How about a blue roof?
I don't have the money!
I didn't have enough
even when I had a roof,
I definitely can't afford a new one.
I have zero money.
Geon-u,
I have to live
without a roof.
When it rains like today,
I'll have to get soaked and live with it.
It's not like
our lives are even that long
Hey, Jeong-ju! Don't you worry about it!
I'll block the rain!
I have long arms.
I'll cover you like this.
It was my last wish
to fix up the place
before Jeong-min gets back,
and running the cafe with him
with the coffee beans
from Sao Paulo.
Geon-u, my last wish
was blown away with the wind
like the roof.
Hey, Jeong-ju.
Is that really
your last wish?
Then
should I give you
Warm and Cozy?
-What?
-Do you want to run it?
Should I give this to you?
For real?
Yes.
Yes, give it to me.
Sure. I'll give it to you.
Come in.
See? You can turn this into a bedroom.
You can live here.
You're right.
It's a room with a sturdy roof.
You said that you have 50 million won,
right?
Give it to me as a deposit.
I can pay off my debt
and go back to Seoul,
and you can run this place.
I'll let you borrow it.
If you lend me that,
you'll have to wait until I die.
Jeong-ju.
People don't die that easily.
You can live a long life.
I'm going to live a crazy long life.
But,
can you really
let me borrow this place until I die?
Sure. You can borrow it
until the day you die.
So don't die too soon.
Don't die, Jeong-ju.
My goodness. All right.
I won't die. I'll live for a long time.
Don't die.
All right.
Don't die, okay?
I think we'll need more
No Smoking signs around the resort.
Our non-smoking guests
have been complaining.
Instead of telling our guests
that they can't smoke,
we should direct them to the smoking area.
I think that would be better.
Just because you tell someone not to smoke
doesn't mean it's easy for them not to.
I've been trying to quit,
but it's nearly impossible.
Mr. Song, has it been
three months now
since you've quit smoking?
-Yes.
-Do you have a secret method?
I can't even last a week.
It's a simple matter of willpower.
Your willpower must be solid steel.
I should learn from you.
You have my utmost respect.
It's admirable.
I can't do it, no matter how hard I try.
I know.
Mr. Song, it is such an honor for me
to work for you.
Even the way you quit smoking.
When you decide to do something,
you stick to it and never waver.
It's really admirable.
Pull over.
Yes, sir.
I'm going to get some fresh air,
so you go on ahead.
Sir?
Don't wait for me. Go on.
It's all about willpower.
I'll swear upon the ocean.
This is my last one.
This is really the last one.
That's it. This is the end.
I should've quit.
Hey. Are you okay?
Yes.
You need to live, no matter what!
Life is too precious to throw away!
If you think you can live,
get up and follow me.
Okay.
Come here and warm yourself.
Are you a haenyeo?
I think
you are mistaken about something.
I
You can feel the cold
because you're alive.
Say ah.
Chew.
You can eat tasty food like that
because you're alive and breathing.
Ah.
I don't know what made you
jump into the ocean to die,
but be strong and stay alive.
SORANG DIVERS ASSOCIATION
SORANG VILLAGE
FISHING VILLAGE SOCIETY
You can take the bus from here.
I don't have my wallet
and my phone doesn't work,
so I'll take this, but I'll pay you back.
How can I contact you?
Do haenyeos have business cards?
You don't have to pay me back.
I'm not asking for your number
just to pay back 30,000 won.
What's the most expensive thing
haenyeos collect from the sea?
Abalone? Sea squirt?
Whatever it is,
I guarantee you, even if you add up
every abalone, conch, sea squirt,
sea cucumber you've ever caught,
it doesn't compare to saving me.
I see you're full of energy
after having that abalone.
Are you telling me
you'll dump the black pearl
that you pulled out
without even opening it up
and taking a look?
Have a good life.
Hey!
Hey! Haenyeo!
I'm a black pearl!
A black pearl this big!
That woman
I hope she's okay.
Did I drink too much last night?
My head is pounding.
Then
should I give you
Warm and Cozy?
Was that a dream?
It was real. It's the contract.
LEASE AGREEMEN
PROPERTY: WARM AND COZY
AMOUNT: 50 MILLION WON
TERMINATION DATE: THE DAY JEONG-JU DIES
My 50 million won.
I'm shooting over
the rest of my entire life savings.
Shoot!
50,0000,000 WON
Is this really my restaurant now?
I'll leave you my restaurant
until the day you die.
Live long, Jeong-ju.
WARM AND COZY
So this really is my place from now on?
For real? Really?
I saw you in Jeju the other day.
You were at my brother's resort, right?
Oh, you saw me?
Yes. I didn't go up to you
because I was afraid that
I'd get mad at you.
But I'm not mad anymore.
I'm sure you had your reasons.
You've always had your reasons
in the past as well.
That's why I wanted to see you.
I have something to tell you, as well.
You should've said hello.
I was at the resort for a job.
I'm thinking about working in Jeju again.
What?
I wanted to surprise you,
but you found out.
You're coming to Jeju?
I'm going to join the resort's
public relations team starting next week.
Isn't that great?
I can eat at your restaurant
every day now.
Is it okay if I go?
What? Of course.
You can come whenever you want.
Hui-ra!
Hui-ra. I need 50 million won.
Jeong-geun said you'd come. He was right.
-No.
-What? Why not?
He found out you were betting
at the tracks.
He said he'd cut me off too,
if I gave you money.
Sorry.
For now,
we'll sell simple salads and sandwiches
and think about what to offer
going forward.
Could you please stay
and help me until then?
Sure.
-But
-Yes?
Can you cook?
I can always learn.
There's nothing I can't do
if I put my mind to it.
But
do you really plan to turn
Warm and Cozy into a noodle soup
or a raw fish soup place?
Yes. We need to sell something
that makes money.
To be blunt, the stuff Geon-u sold
doesn't make any money.
That's right.
If we use the free ingredients
provided by the ocean,
there will be almost no overhead.
Pung-san, let's make money together.
Money!
Sure. Okay.
I'll head into town
to pick up the vegetables.
Okay. Give me that.
Hurry back!
Hi, Jeong-ju.
Geon-u.
What are you doing here?
What does it look like? I'm cooking.
Jeong-ju, what do you want to eat?
Just say the word. I'll make them all.
GOOD LUCK WITH WARM AND COZY
NEW OWNER JEONG-JU
This is what they call a lucky money tree.
Jeong-ju, I hope you make a lot of money.
Thanks.
But weren't you going back to Seoul?
I did,
but I kept seeing Warm and Cozy
in my dreams.
I had no idea,
but this restaurant must have occupied
a big part of my brain.
You appeared out of the blue,
so I was afraid you'd say the contract
was void because we were drunk.
Even if we were drunk,
we signed a contract.
The legality doesn't evaporate
like alcohol.
Plus, if I wanted to say it was void,
would I have brought this?
I would've brought a lawyer to fight.
Well, that's a relief then.
Hey. What's that sound?
What sound?
The hood must be acting up again!
Seriously.
What? The hood?
I knew it. This broke again.
It's broken? It was fine just moments ago.
No, listen to it.
Right? Hear that?
Isn't that normal when it's on?
No! It's usually really quiet.
Jeong-ju, I'm sorry.
I should've fixed the place up
before handing it over to you.
I'll take the next couple of days
to fix up the place.
No, it's okay.
I don't think that will be necessary.
You have a customer.
I've heard that this place is good.
What should we have? They can make you
anything you want to eat.
-Welcome.
-Are you open?
I'm sorry. We're closing for a few days
due to some circumstances.
No, we're good. Please grab a table.
I told you, I can only make
sandwiches right now.
-I can cook.
-You?
You can't serve customers
just pieces of bread.
-What are you doing? Go on.
-Okay.
Geon-u?
What are you doing?
Leave that there and take their order.
Okay.
-Hey.
-What's Geon-u doing here?
I'm not sure. He said he was worried
about this place.
He did?
I didn't even ask for his help,
but he's cooking now.
He rarely does things he needs to do,
but he's working voluntarily?
He doesn't seem to be here
to cancel the contract.
What's going on?
Come in.
-Hello.
-It's so pretty.
Come in! Pung-san, we have customers!
We have roasted black pig, seafood mix,
fresh cut noodles,
and cutlass soup.
Here's the black pork.
Three more mendorongs.
-Okay!
-Excuse me!
Yes?
-Please enjoy.
-Thank you.
My gosh.
WARM AND COZY
We've had a busy day today.
Goodness.
Anyway, why is Geon-u back?
What's this?
That's mine. Leave it there.
Hey, you need to change the shower head.
I prefer to shower
under a strong stream of water.
You took a shower here? Why?
I told you I'm staying here
for the time being.
Did you not mean you were going
to help out with the restaurant?
Your house--
That was a rental.
Someone moved in as soon as I moved out.
So you're planning to sleep here?
Come on. I wouldn't share a bed with you.
Ta-da!
I have a fold-away bed here!
You didn't know, did you?
This is going to be too uncomfortable.
Don't worry. I'm not high maintenance.
You sleep comfortably in there.
It's a bit uncomfortable,
but I'll sleep here by the door.
Dream on and get out.
Sure. I expected her
to kick me out at least once.
JI-WON
Hey, Ji-won.
How's the move coming along?
Good. I'm a bit tired today.
I should've helped before coming down.
Do you need anything?
I'll have everything ready for you.
Let's go together when I get there.
I can't wait to check out your restaurant.
Is there anything you want to eat?
Just say the word. I'll make them all.
I want seafood.
-Abalone?
-Okay.
I'll get the freshest abalone available.
That's a big piece of luggage.
It doesn't look like he's leaving
in a few days.
She's more rigid than I expected.
What should I do?
What do you want this time?
It's a bit chilly outside,
so I'm looking for something to wear.
Jeong-ju! Did you hear that just now?
Hear what?
Something just flew by the window!
-It's probably a stray cat.
-What if it's a burglar?
You said there were no thieves in Jeju.
That was in the past.
It's not like that anymore!
With the recent influx of outsiders,
this place isn't free of crime anymore!
I've locked the doors,
so we'll be all right.
No! That's not true!
I'm nervous sleeping outside,
and I'm worried
about leaving you here alone.
So I'll sleep here just for today.
Get out.
What will you do if I get attacked
in the middle of the night?
If you sleep up here, I'll attack you
and it'll be much worse!
Get out. I said to get out.
-Get out.
-I'm leaving.
What will you do if I get attacked
in the middle of the night?
It must be cold down there.
Geon-u.
He made his bed here, but Goodness.
Where did he go in the cold?
Let me stay here for the time being.
I'm broke and I have nowhere to go.
I won't take you in either.
Get out.
I can't stop thinking about you.
This is the last time.
Let's eat together.
Even this looks pretty.
