My Mister (2018) s01e07 Episode Script

1
(Episode 7)
Was it a Dutch or Norwegian?
There's a TV program
that shows a bonfire all day long.
Oddly enough, it has good viewer ratings.
I'd watch it too.
People want to rest.
Even when you lie down with your eyes closed,
different thoughts pop up.
When you look into a fire,
your mind goes blank.
Why are you here?
I asked why you're here.
I forgot.
The fire must have burnt it all.
Thanks for lending a hand.
Were you guys close at college?
Even in the same major,
a three-year gap plus military service
could have made it hard to be close.
I entered college after Mr. Park finished his military service.
We went to college together for two years.
It must have been awkward to be with a reservist senior.
It wasn't too bad as we were in the same society too.
What society?
We studied at night.
You?
You must have had a crush.
Sir, where's the salt?
It's inside the tent.
I'll go get a lamp.
All right.
Dong Hun is here at the camping site.
What is going on?
Put that down.
I'll kill you if you call.
Why do you smell like fire?
Probably because I ate some barbecue.
Sir, I'll tidy up now.
Okay.
Are you here to scare me?
With the chairman here?
Are you trying to threaten me?
People's faces don't change.
When I saw you first in college,
I knew you wouldn't live a neat life.
Your face says you don't want to be filthy alone,
so you'll get dirt on others too. I thought I should stay away.
I hated it when you clung to me and smiled at me.
So I knew this would happen.
Were you thinking of marrying her?
After you fire me and make her divorce me,
were you two going to get married?
A greedy jerk like you would never marry a woman of a common family.
She even has a kid.
She's a lawyer,
but you were never going to marry Yun Hui.
Even if I got fired and divorced like you planned,
you would have never married her.
You two have been like this since last spring, hasn't it?
Answer properly to what I ask.
Don't think. Just say it.
The fact that you gave me 50,000 to set me up.
Did Yun Hui know it or not?
I wasn't intending to get you fired from the beginning.
I know. You were after Managing Director Park,
but the money got to me.
You thought it was a good chance to set me up.
Both Mr. Park and I know.
The fact that you were using it to get me fired.
Did Yun Hui know about it or not?
There was no other way. You'd already received the money
Did she know about it or not?
Are you not done yet?
We are. Go to him.
Because you couldn't fire me,
did you ask her to persuade me to quit?
Yun Hui wanted you to quit on good terms.
I'll do it. Take him to the tent.
Get inside, sir. It's late.
I'll eat this first.
Gosh, it's all burnt.
Gosh.
Are you all right?
You knew I was looking through your call history.
Didn't that scare you?
I could find out
who was using the pay phone in one day.
Did you think I couldn't find out?
Idiot.
You showed you were flustered.
Hi, son. Are you on your way to school?
Daddy? He's not home yet.
Did you? I guess he's busy working.
Dad's specialty?
Why that all of a sudden?
Dad's specialty
What is he good at?
Sleeping long hours?
It's done. Make your payment and take your prescription.
Break up quietly.
Don't tell her I know. Just break up.
When she finds out I know,
you'll be dead.
Don't even think
to tell her everything and to make her pretend she doesn't know.
We lived in the same place for 15 years.
I can tell whether she's pretending
or not.
Just break up with her like you grew bored of her.
Just do it.
Then I won't mess with you.
I won't let a jerk like you ruin my life.
If you mess with me at work and get caught, you're dead.
Fire me if I'm not good at my job.
Fire me if I'm of no use to the company.
But if I catch you set me up for something,
you're dead.
You cheap piece of scum.
What did you do all day?
You didn't answer Ji Seok's call.
What?
He needs a video of you and your specialty.
It's his homework.
Hi, I'm sorry. My phone was on vibrate.
I just heard from your mom.
What specialty?
Until when?
Next Monday?
What kind of homework is that?
What should I do for a minute?
It needs to look cool, right?
Okay.
I'll think about it.
Okay, go to class.
Bye.
What will you do?
Except soccer.
Learn some simple magic tricks.
A magic trick?
I don't understand those who like it.
An old woman goes in and comes out young.
It's only magic when it's real.
That's not magic when they switch from behind.
- Does that surprise you? - Why do you cry watching TV?
It's all an act.
But they are good.
They are so good they fool you.
It's the same for magic too. They are good so people are fooled.
I've never been fooled.
Don't do a stupid thing.
Eat live octopus instead.
Foreigners will faint if they see it.
That's not his specialty. That's gross.
- They are the same. - How about taekwondo?
You learned it in the army.
I can't break anything.
Break it before you film it.
You're thinking about faking his kid's homework.
Jegi?
It's been ages since I played.
Shall I just do a random dance?
It'll embarrass Ji Seok.
Right.
You pathetic fools.
How is none of you good at anything?
We've never learned anything.
It's because we were poor.
Usually, specialty or hobby grows on kids
if they went to academies.
But I've never done anything except going to school.
For soccer, all it needs is a ball in the neighborhood.
Everyone would jump in
and try hard to get a chance to kick the ball.
As an adult, I never spent money on something that won't make money.
There's nothing I can do.
Except drinking.
All the middle-aged men in Korea have no specialty.
There is one.
Drinking.
If drinking counts as a specialty,
the government should send us abroad to study.
We could drink all night and throw up.
We'd drink for the hangover the next day.
There's nothing else I could do with more passion.
I drank when my wife gave birth.
I drank when she asked for divorce.
While she was nagging,
my head was filled with the thought of drinking outside.
"My friend's waiting."
"My drink's waiting."
All I wanted to do was to get outside quickly and drink.
So I said, "I'm sorry".
"I love you." I even went down on my knees.
"Forget it!"
She'd say everything she has to say quickly,
then I dashed out.
"Let's drink!"
That makes me happy.
I can't believe it.
If there was a battle of drinking,
all the men in Korea will defeat the world.
Right. Me.
I'm a general material.
Salute, beer!
Morons.
It's funny
but sad.
It's a sad story.
It's a beer story.
Don't laugh.
He'll continue if you laugh. I said don't.
- Let's just laugh. - He'll continue.
Just laugh.
Hey, beer up.
You're not seriously going to do it, are you?
I can't do it. It's been so long.
(Jeong Hui's)
This crazy witch.
Her?
She must be in love with you.
It's not a normal feeling.
It is. She likes you.
That horrifies me.
I'm off.
I'll come with you.
Where are you going?
Home. Let's go.
What?
Did you get a house?
When did you get a house without telling us?
Where?
Let's go.
- Tell us. - Let's go.
What's up with her?
Did you buy a house?
You must have made a fortune.
We spent a lot at hers.
It feels good to go home with you guys.
I'd always greeted customers where I got up,
and went to sleep in the same spot.
If felt like I was in a prison.
Why won't you tell us where you live?
Are you living with someone?
I'd like to.
You said you wouldn't come back before you meet a man.
Weren't there any decent men in Thailand?
It was
full of monks everywhere.
Are you allergic to monks?
Why is it always
Mon
I'm sorry.
- Go away. - To where? Temple?
Do you want me to go to a temple?
Why is it always me?
Come on.
I'm off.
Where do you live?
It's a secret.
Do you want me to walk you?
I'm home.
It's freezing outside.
Today,
there weren't many customers
and while I was waiting for someone who wouldn't come,
I got bored and had a few drinks.
I can't be bothered to wash.
But I will go and wash.
I am
a clean woman.
(Toilet)
Good morning.
Where's the chart for steel corrosion degree?
It's printing now.
Don't mess with Park Dong Hun.
Stay low for the time being.
What's wrong with this?
What is wrong?
Shoot.
Excuse me.
Do you know why
Seriously.
Here.
Can't we fire her and find a nice girl instead?
It's like I'm her servant.
Whenever I ask something, she's so cold.
I'm too scared to even ask anything.
She's better than you who talk behind me.
I'll just fire you instead.
Come on.
I'm just saying I want a sweeter girl instead.
No matter how sweet,
some don't care about their family.
No matter how cold and arrogant,
some care about their family.
Which one's nicer?
Is she the breadwinner?
She's the sole breadwinner for her grandma.
Do you know her well?
We live in the same neighborhood.
Why didn't you tell me that sooner?
Why would I?
Don't flick me. I'm trying my best to keep it down.
I love you.
Did you deal with the temporary agency that caused trouble?
Of course, sir. They made a mistake and caused trouble.
There's no need to be worried.
Why would I worry?
- Sorry? - Why would I ever need to worry?
What do you mean?
Should I be worried about getting workers from a temporary agency
that made a ridiculous mistake?
Or be worried about Park Dong Hun that earned the chairman's favor
because of the incident?
Just make me not worry about you.
You tend to make things get out of hand.
I didn't ask for it.
Noted, sir.
I thought she was going to break the printer.
Forget it.
But it got fixed.
Would you like to go for dinner before you go home?
I have a plan.
(Wife)
Do you have time?
Let's go to Sang Hun's office.
We've never been since they opened.
I have a plan tonight.
Do you have parents?
I'm asking because of your grandmother.
Both of them died.
Does your grandmother have any other children?
No.
Why do you take care of her?
Why don't you send her to a sanitarium?
She got kicked out.
I couldn't pay for the bills.
A grandchild isn't obliged to provide support.
If she has no child and has a disability,
she'll be accepted for free.
Why did she get kicked out for overdue bills?
Are you and your grandmother registered on the same property?
Register separately.
Your benefits are denied
because you're registered together and you're making money.
Register separately,
and request a long-term care.
Did no one tell you about this?
Go home.
Buy me dinner.
I'll buy you drinks.
Follow me.
I'm buying you because I have a reason.
Eat up.
Can we have a bowl of rice too?
Sure. Just one?
Yes.
- Here. - Thanks.
I thought you were scared of people talking about us.
Do you feel comfortable because you pity me?
You're buying me dinner now.
Look at you talking.
If anyone says anything, you'll tell them how much you pity me.
Don't assume
there was no one who has ever helped me in my life.
There were many.
They brought me some food and rice.
1, 2, 3
Four times.
After the fourth time,
they run away.
They despise the life that has no hope.
They must have thought they had kind hearts.
They are kind.
They helped you four times.
There are so many who don't even try for once.
I get what you're saying.
But my life isn't any better than yours,
and I'm not buying you meals because I pity you.
I'm treating you because I'm thankful.
It was Do Jun Yeong.
He gave me 50,000 dollars to get me fired.
If you
hadn't thrown the money,
I would've been fired without knowing anything.
That's why
I'm treating today.
Why did he do that?
Maybe he hates me.
Still, can he just fire people?
That's what a workplace is like.
You don't get fired in the order of your competency.
You get fired if you are annoying.
What will you do now?
Well.
I'll tell him to stop because I know everything.
Will he stop?
Of course.
Don't tell anyone
that Jun Yeong tried to fire me
or that I talked to him about it.
If I were you, I'd tell the higher-ups to have him fired.
Isn't that enough to get him fired?
You may think punishing the bad
will make you feel better.
Live more to see it yourself.
His dirt will get on me in the end.
He won't be the only dirty one.
Or take a large sum of money and start your own company.
How can you work with the jerk that tried to set you up?
Seeing his face must be tormenting.
The reality is a torment.
This isn't paradise.
There must be a reason why I'm in torment.
I'll wait until I'm done being punished.
Isn't punishment
for someone who did wrong?
Do you want me to kill him instead?
Drink.
Give this to your grandmother.
I saved you once too, you know.
Don't complain later.
Okay? You chose her yourself!
I'm fine.
(I'm grateful.)
(It's so delicious so I'm grateful.)
Your wife came by in the morning with some kimchi.
Because we don't have kimchi here?
She must have come to keep an eye on him.
Do you even know it's my birthday soon?
She brought it for my birthday meal.
Call her.
She's lying about the divorce.
People'd say anything when they get angry.
She was penniless when she needed money the most.
When a woman is over 50, she doesn't want to look in the mirror.
"Who's that lady?"
If she had money, she'd go shopping and have fun,
but she has no money.
Visit her and call her from time to time.
Okay.
Be nice to her even if she talks bluntly.
She'll become softer if you're nice.
Is she a princess or what?
I like Sang Hun's wife better than Yun Hui.
She's kind-hearted although she may come across blunt.
I'm going to tell Yun Hui.
Go on.
The money you're using comes from her.
It's from Dong Hun, not her.
Who do you think earns that money?
A salaryman or a lawyer?
What's wrong with you? You weren't this bad before.
Do you hate that daughter-in-law is competent?
I hate everyone that's better than my kids.
You're one scary woman.
My baby will feel inferior.
He's not even much of a talker.
Bye.
I'm scared of motherly love.
There's no logic.
She only talks like that around us.
She's actually nice to Yun Hui.
Of course she should. Yun Hui gives her money.
Can't you just stop?
Hello.
It's like the sea.
The sea of dirty cloths.
The smell of washing powder.
Are you going to work already?
Come outside.
Eat this before you go.
Did you two have a fight?
I'll see you at Jeong Hui's later.
Is Jeong Hui your friend?
That's the name of the bar.
Still. She's not your friend.
See you at Ms. Jeong's.
Forget it.
See you.
You're here.
Did I wake you?
It's time I woke up.
What is it? Did something happen?
My heart aches whenever I think about Dong Hun.
I fed and clothed the three equally.
Why does it feel like I gave him less?
I feel bad whenever I think of him.
He's not the type to talk about himself.
He's never asked me to buy him anything since he was young.
When the other two were just
It's because you love Dong Hun too much.
Sang Hun is the most pitiful of all.
He got kicked out by his wife at the age of 50.
He's just happy to be kicked out.
Why did you send money?
You didn't even work while you were abroad.
Take it back.
Keep it. I know you came here everyday and cleaned.
Forget it. Take it back.
Let's eat.
Gosh, I'm fine.
Think of it as an allowance from your daughter.
You always fed me like you'd feed your sons.
You'd pile up bone soup in my freezer.
How am I not your daughter?
Luckily, we found a rock face 11m below ground.
As this building is built on it, it should have no problem.
Thank goodness.
I feel at ease.
Still, if we continue to pump out the groundwater,
it could cause sinkholes, or similar problems,
- so tell them to work carefully. - Yes, sir.
- You should eat, sir. - No, I'll go.
The hospital seems to hate that I go back and forth.
I can't smoke while in the hospital.
Let me smoke here.
Did you do something wrong to Dong Hun?
Tell me if there's anything I should know of.
Don't let me hear it from someone else.
He's found his wife's number on my call history,
which gave him the wrong idea.
We're friends. We used to be in the same society at college.
Because of the 50,000-dollar incident,
we talked a few times because we were worried.
She said her husband isn't someone who'd take bribes.
So we talked and met a few times.
But we didn't tell Dong Hun that we met because of the issue.
He must have thought we were hiding something.
It wasn't easy to tell him.
She knows how much Dong Hun hates me.
Why does he hate you so much?
I'm curious too.
Some people just don't get along.
I think it got worse after I became CEO.
That's understandable.
Anyone would be like that.
He must be hurt more than me,
so I tried to approach him,
but it just got worse.
I'm getting tired too.
Hello, this is Saman.
Yes, just a moment.
Sir.
Mr. Park. A call for you.
Let me connect you.
This is he.
In case we get into trouble altogether,
they told me not to call you.
So what happened? Who used the pay phone?
Sinjeong-dong, was it?
I don't know.
I was there the whole day,
but no one used it.
And people at work have nothing to do with the area.
I've looked into the vendors,
and none of them are related to Sinjeong-dong.
But someone called him using the pay phone every two days.
For someone to be hiding to make a call,
there must be something suspicious.
Even still,
if they got out of a car there momentarily just to use the phone.
There's no way I can find out.
Give me back the call records.
I threw it away.
As Internal Affairs began investigating
I didn't want to get caught.
What's the pay phone number?
I'm not sure if this is it.
It's been some time now.
This is the pay phone customer service.
Press one to report a faulty phone.
Press two for installation instructions.
Press zero to connect to an advisor.
Play it again.
Your favorite is the last piece.
And this is my favorite.
I like this one better now.
I realized why you like it
now that I've listened to it enough.
I like it.
Play it again.
Where are you going?
I should go.
Where?
To the camping site.
Again?
You got hurt there. Does he want you again?
Why won't he let you rest?
My life is on the line. I should go if he wants me.
Did Jun Yeong bribe you?
Or how could you forget the number when it's been less than a week?
It's not that I forgot. I'm not sure
Hey.
I'd like to request a pay phone booth to be torn down.
Yes, it's because someone keeps peeing inside it
and it stinks.
You may have to pay for the demolition cost.
How much would it be?
You're lucky.
You made it.
I guess you can't fire Dong Hun anymore.
Is this the end?
Keep listening.
He may show his true colors after getting drunk.
Call me right away if you spot anything suspicious.
I don't have time to be listening to his mundane life.
1,000 dollars a week.
You need money.
Wait.
If you've been tapping, you would know this too.
That him and I got in a fight.
A fight?
You got beaten.
Why did you pretend not to know?
Was I supposed to tell you I know you're embarrassed?
Did you know
Park Dong Hun has been looking into pay phones?
I didn't know he'd go there and wait all day long.
I think that's how he found out.
You should be careful.
You be careful.
I'm going to respect you as of today.
This beautiful lady likes you.
Is today a chicken and beer day?
Here.
What's wrong with you?
I tried so I wouldn't be compared.
You're not compared.
What do you
like about Gi Hun?
I
I like that he's a mess.
I love it.
Everyone here is a total mess.
It's what you like.
He used to be a banker,
but now he sells towels to motels.
He used to be a manager
at a motor laboratory, but now imports mudfish.
He used to be a director at a pharmaceutical company,
but now jobless.
You know us. Me and Sang Hun are cleaners.
You must be so happy that everyone here is
a bunch of losers.
Hey.
You will, someday, for once,
you'll get beaten by a group of men.
And I may be one of them, so be careful.
Why would I get beaten when I like
Why would you like that someone failed?
I guess you're feeling better,
looking at people who are worse. Isn't that it?
And you're saying it in front of these guys.
- That's not it. - How is that not it?
I actually admire everyone here.
You're making up stuff now.
But you're too stupid to make sense now.
Hear me out.
See if I make sense or not.
People live in fear
that they might fail.
Or I did at least.
At first, I was sincerely happy that Director Park failed.
But I liked it even more
to see how fine he was
even after failing.
So it's okay to fail.
It was nothing.
You can
still be happy even if you failed.
It put me at ease.
This whole neighborhood is a mess.
And so is everyone here,
but none of you look unhappy.
Never.
That's why I like it. It makes me feel at ease.
I see.
Here.
While we are at it,
can't you be a model for mudfish?
- That's a good idea. - If Yu Ra is the model
If Yu Ra becomes popular,
how about we print her face on our towel?
Come on.
She's
just like an angel.
An angel descended.
I know, right?
So we're doing good.
- I'm off first. - Let's clean it tomorrow.
I got bored, so I followed you.
Look at you.
You keep bringing big amounts.
Is
something up?
Are you dating a rich, old man?
Yes.
I found one, richer and stronger than you.
Why are you still cleaning dishes?
And dressed like a beggar.
You should be dolled-up and stay still when a man gives you money.
I get bored.
What could it be?
I'm so curious.
I'm dying to find out.
Get up.
I don't give women piggyback.
I can't walk anymore.
Let's say I give you a piggyback and take you home.
You'll invite me in.
I'll go in.
We'll
sleep together.
The next day,
we'll sleep together again.
For a few days, we will.
Will you get married to me?
So get up now.
Get up.
Gosh.
How could you think that far?
Isn't it embarrassing to say that?
Go.
You must have
slept with all the women you gave piggyback to.
Just go.
(National Health Insurance)
If you don't have a seal, you can write your name.
How serious is your grandmother's illness?
She is deaf and she can't move on her own.
It must have been very tough. Why didn't you apply sooner?
It's been long since this system was made.
Once your application goes through,
a person in charge will contact you regarding the schedule.
Is she's eligible for a long-term care,
will it be free?
The local government provides everything to low-income families,
so yes.
I heard you went to where the chairman was camping.
Did he call you?
- No. - Then why would you go there?
Who are you to?
You do all sorts of things.
Just because he calls your name dearly,
did you think you could get something out of it?
Do you think I'm a nobody?
- No, sir. - Then why would you go there?
Even I sit and wait until he calls me.
Who are you to step forward?
Your string's no longer here,
and I'd never let you in.
So were you looking for a way to survive?
One of the managing director positions is vacant,
and since the chairman seems favorable to you,
did you think you could be managing director?
I'm not interested.
Or why would you go there to grill meat and make firewood?
Without telling me?
I heard you cleaned the dishes too.
Blowing your frozen hands.
And you say you're not interested?
I can see through you.
I can see through everything.
Get out.
Get out.
Now!
Let's go to Sang Hun's office on Saturday.
I can't do on weekdays.
How many
staff will quit with you if you start your company?
Don't be too disappointed even if no one follows you.
That's what people are like.
What's taking so long?
There is an order. I can't just blurt it out.
Don't worry.
Since our talk, I have no affection left for her.
Just say everything.
Stop acting like you're being generous.
This is so cheap.
Are you happy your intuition was right?
Aren't you just happy that I turned out to be a jerk as you predicted?
Do you think you were the only one?
I knew it the moment I saw you 20 years ago.
You're the type to feel wronged, putting on a kind face.
When there's only so much you can share among men,
you don't have the courage to jump in and fight
because you're a coward.
"I'll hold out until my retirement. I'll wait until I turn 50."
You know your place too well.
But you'd despise those who take the risk and climb up.
Were you jealous?
While you're holding back your greed
While you're letting others take what's yours,
did it churn your guts to see me climb up the ladder?
So you should have been nicer to me while I treated you like a senior.
Then maybe I'd felt guilty and didn't come this far.
Break up quietly?
Forget it. It disgusts me now, I can't do as you say.
I'll tell everything.
When everything is revealed, who do you think has more to lose?
I can be CEO at another company.
You're telling me to stay quiet because you have much to lose.
Don't you pretend you care about me.
Fine.
Fine. Let's see the end of it.
Let's see what I'm capable of.
I'm curious too.
What I'll do when I lose everything.
What kind of person it'll make me.
Let's see.
All right.
To leave a message, press one.
I can't reach you.
You must be busy.
I want to eat something delicious.
Call me. I won't eat and wait.
I'm at the camping site. Don't wait.
Are you okay?
(Resume, Lee Ji An)
Isn't this
one too crucial moment to be dating a married woman?
Can't you simply break up?
Or is she that attractive?
You must not know,
but a married woman is the safest option for men.
There's no way she'd go around talking about it.
And at times like this,
it's safer to keep her than to break up.
If you try to break it off
with a woman who's still passionate can be a headache.
I wondered how a woman in an affair looked like,
so now I see.
Lady,
wake up.
Before you ruin everything.
Hello, hi.
Hi. Give me a beer.
Okay. Don't you need any food?
Maybe something light.
Okay.
Here.
Did she not come?
Who?
The girl who always underdresses.
The pretty one.
Oh, your friend.
No, she didn't.
I'll get the bill.
Hello
She's here. The pretty one.
Hey.
I'm about to leave.
Have one more beer.
Have one more.
(February Pay Slip)
You're managing to survive.
I thought Park Dong Hun chose you as a joke.
Why did you hire me?
(Resume: Lee Ji An, Specialty: running)
Running.
You seemed to be mentally strong.
What's your 100m record?
I don't know. I don't remember.
How why did you write that down as your specialty?
When I run,
I disappear.
But
that's when I feel like my true self.
Let's be happy.
(My Mister)
Whatever happens, if your internal force is stronger, you survive.
You can do it.
He's trying to find out.
It'll get dangerous for you too.
Now Gwang Il knows,
and you weren't going to last there long anyway.
Watch where you're going.
Until 10 years ago, I didn't know what being a dull person meant.
There's no one we can support other than him.
You should become managing director.
That you thought were the frames that stood you up
don't feel like they are your internal forces.
I can do it.
