[Love in the Big City]
[Episode 8]
Mr. Go it's been a while,
it's good to see you again.
You remember me?
Of course, Mr. Go.
And your company left you key with us.
Room 3300.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Wow.
They've given us champagne because
we said we were on our honeymoon.
Now I can relax.
Hey, go wash up before you jump in bed!
Relax
I'm not even under the covers.
You should join me.
Let's lie here a while.
No one asked you to drink so much.
Are you still up for going to the pool?
They were free drinks.
Our flights cost a fortune,
we needed to make the most of it…
Go draw the curtains.
Silly, you don't draw the curtains
at a luxury hotel like this.
Why not?
Wow, that's awesome.
Huh? Oh..
What is it?
It doesn't work. I think it's broken.
Let's just sleep.
We can't sleep like this.
Gyu Ho.
There's something extraordinary here.
Uh? What?
A crystal penis.
What?
It's big. Impressive.
Hello?
The automatic curtain does not close completely.
We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
So as a gesture of our apologies,
we have upgraded your room.
This is the best type of room we offer,
The Presidential Suite room.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome. Have pleasure in stay.
- Kopkhun kap.
- Kopkhun ka.
Yay!!!
Wow, I'm so surprised
What did they say?
That they're sorry, so they upgraded us
to a Park Suite King room.
Sounds like the boss of a video game.
Right?
Hey, you have to pay for that!
- Oh, really?
- Just kidding.
Come on.
City view.
Wow.
We can't see the crystal penis from here.
Oh yeah, guess you can't
see it from this side.
I should have seen it earlier,
what a shame.
[I have back-to-back meetings and dinner arrangements.
Please have dinner and do some sightseeing.]
[I'll give you a call when I have time. - Habibi]
I was alone in either city,
Seoul or Bangkok.
The unfamiliarity of the destination
only made loneliness clearer.
I'm tired of loneliness,
and I'm tired of getting tired.
[I'll be free for dinner. Meet me at the Fort by 6.]
[Okay.]
These are the only ones for this prescription?
Yes. Yes.
They're the only ones they have
that match your prescription.
Uh?
Really? You sure?
Yes. Only this.
Oh, damn it! It's hot!
I told you not to laugh.
Okay, I'm sorry. I won't laugh anymore.
Come on! Cut it out!
You have to admit it's pretty hilarious.
You look like that rabbit detective, Usami.
Well then, you're Kumakichi.
The perverted bear.
- I'm Usami!!!
- Me too, Usami!
No, you're Kumakichi!!
I'm Usami.
My eyes are blue.
I'm Usami.
No, I'm Usami!!
Is there any anti-viral drugs for HIV?
Uh yes.
This is a generic antiviral drug.
So the efficacy and dosage instructions are identical.
Take two pills before intercourse
followed by an additional
two pills daily thereafter-
that'll help you prevent infection.
Are you buying them?
Okay. How much?
- Crabby Tabby. Mr. Kumakichi
- Yeah?
What are we gonna do now?
I dunno Head back to the hotel?
Or we could go to the beach?
The beach is far away.
How come? We're in Thailand.
Isn't it surrounded by water?
That's only true for islands
like Phuket or Ko Samui.
We're in Bangkok.
It's a long way to go to the beach.
So Bangkok is inland, huh
Why are you laughing?
Do you remember what you said
when we first met?
That it was your dream to go inland.
And that's funny?
How about seeing a river instead of the sea?
The Chao Phraya River.
Sure!
Oh! Oh!!
Chao Phraya River!
Kylie was always taking over
my life without a sound.
What would have changed if I had known
these things 9 years ago.
Would it be a very different life?
What kind of life is that.
Will it better or worse,
or is it no different than it is now.
It's already been nine years
since I've been with Kylie,
but I'm not used to Kylie's existence.
Gyu Ho always took for granted the
existence of Kylie, who was unfamiliar to me.
I was sorry for that but
I pretended to be fine.
Hey, Mr. Bomb!
I'm sorry.
I thought you might have forgotten my face.
And you would come to Bangkok
to meet someone who's forgotten your face?
Why not?
How was your day?
Well, I saw a giant's eye that sang and danced.
Cling Cling, Blink Blink,
Cling Cling, Blink Blink.
It seems you've had quite an eventful day.
And how was yours?
I've had a dull one,
as usual.
But tonight
Will be a very special one.
Thanks to me?
No.
Tonight, here in Bangkok,
we are going to see the
world's most beautiful fireworks.
Everything.
- This drink here is-
- Wait,
Wait, don't tell me!
I'd rather not know.
Kopkhun ka.
I always wanted to try ordering everything.
Money's great.
I didn't realize money could bring so much joy.
You didn't?
Well then, I guess you're not
as smart as I thought you were.
Wow! Delicious.
How's yours?
Melon, malibu, lemon.
And banana…
It's a pretty standard June Bug.
How does yours taste?
Like my ring finger?
Sorry?
Does it taste like your ring finger?
Yes, Would you like a taste?
It really does taste like your finger.
I told ya.
Banana?
How about this?
Cheers!
Cheers!
Are you okay?
No. No way. Ha ha.
Wow! Ha ha!
I can't taste anything anymore.
I think my tongue is paralyzed.
That's okay.
The taste was never important.
Why is it raining?
You said dry season.
It's late rainy season.
Isn't that the dry season?
Late rainy season is also rainy season.
That's why the plane tickets were cheap.
Hey, stop running! We're already soaked!
Slow down!!!
What are you doing?
What do you think?
I'm exhausted so I'm lying down.
Yes, but why are you lying down
in the middle of the street?
When I was young, back in Seogwipo,
I would do this all the time.
You would lie down
in the middle of the road?
Yeah. I'd spend all day lying down
like this, by the sea.
You're crazy.
You're lucky you're still alive.
Why would you be so reckless?
I like lying like this.
It's refreshing, and comforting.
I open my eyes and see the sky.
It almost feels like I am wrapped around it.
What are you, a poet?
Don't be silly and get up!
You should lie here with me.
Young!
I'm so happy right now.
Even my underwear is wet.
What's there to be happy about?
Just
Being here with you like this.
That makes me happy.
One day, the darkness came.
Literal darkness.
I couldn't see anything so I went to the hospital,
but they couldn't identify the cause.
So I was stuck in a hotel room for two weeks.
The only thing I could remember
before everything went dark,
was the last thing I'd seen
- the ceiling of my hotel room.
From that day on, I take photos
of every hotel I visit.
Their lights,
chandeliers,
even ceiling fans
The things that are barely hanging on.
Koo-e-tan-hay-ra
Koo-e-tan-hay-ra
We want standard.
I recommend the Deluxe room.
We just stay three hour!
One thousand baht!
Three hundred baht!
One thousand.
Don't they have brief stays?
I don't think we have a choice.
Let's just give him 1,000 baht and rest.
One thousand.
1,000 baht for this?
This has got to be a joke.
One day we'll look back on this fondly.
Urgh, that's gross. Put it down.
Gyu Ho kept withering when he wore condoms
and I couldn't have sex without
condoms because of Kylie.
As such, Kylie had a great influence
on the frequency of my relationship with Gyu Ho.
We decided to give Kylie a vacation as well.
It was the first and last time we
had sex with without condoms.
Sex at a Bangkok guesthouse was salty and damp.
If that thing falls,
we'd be ground meat, huh?
Then let's be a burger patty together.
What are you saying.
- What's wrong!
- What's wrong with you.
Give it to me, give it to me!
Hey Its falling.
Okay. All right. Come here.
Ah! Don't do it!
Urgh I don't think my underwear is dry yet.
Me too. It's uncomfortable.
A present!
You thieving bastard!
Why would you take this?
That crappy room cost us 1,000 baht!
They deserve it!
And it can be a souvenir.
In memory of ours and Kylie's honeymoon.
You're getting stranger by the minute.
You're rubbing off on me!
Is that so?
Anyway, it's a present. So take good care of it.
You're giving it to me because
you can't be arsed to lug it around, right?
What happens if we return home
and go back to arguing?
What?
What if we argue again?
Then we'll make up!
And what if we argue again?
We'll make up!
And what if we argue again?
We'll make up!
Argue again?
We'll make up!
Argue again?
We'll make up!
Argue again?
We'll make up!
Argue again?
We'll make up!
Argue again?
We'll make up!
I do not know whether there were
fireworks that night.
It seems that everything went by
in a flash while I was asleep.
I don't know since when, but
all the days seemed to merge into one.
Habibi, when I saw your tired face,
I felt like I wanted to comfort you in some way.
But soon I realized that those feelings
were just familiarity, not love.
I often thought about love in Bangkok with you.
Perhaps love is about sharing
ourselves, exactly as we are.
I once found such a person that
I could share myself with, but at the time,
I did not recognize their true worth.
Habibi. I have decided to live wholly as myself.
And Habibi, you also deserve
a chance to live that way.
Goodbye. From your nuclear weapon.
How on earth did I live in a place like this?
You could have cleaned regularly.
What shall we do with those?
What else? Chuck 'em
Sure.
Use some of those muscles. Grab there.
Hurry up.
One second.
I'm the only one.
What would I do without Eun Soo?
You're good at talking.
I'm going to buy you something.
Ice cream?
What did you say? Hold on.
Be careful of your feet.
Okay.
Let's go.
We threw away so much that
there's barely anything to move.
Yeah.
This was the only thing you
brought from your mom's house?
The rest wasn't to my taste.
There wasn't much worth taking anyway.
You'll have the joy of buying things one by one.
Yeah, I guess I will.
Do you know when the others will be getting here?
They're on their way.
Your mom is pretty amazing.
How many awards did she receive?
Do you want to have a drink?
Then
Red? Maybe we should cook up a BBQ?
Sounds good.
We could go to the rooftop?
Is the door unlocked?
I would think so.
I heard there'll be fireworks tonight.
- Oh really?
- Yes.
Good.
Good.
Since we're holding a glass
Here's to the princess meeting!
Princess!
Oh, it's perfect.
It's incredible!
It's fucking gorgeous.
Isn't this a view you're meant
to share with a lover?
There's no use even if you eat garlic.
Hold on,
we're all single!
Why? Why?
It's true.
It's true.
Ah, you idiot!
It's okay. What's wrong?
Eat up!
Oh, it's good.
It hasn't happened over the past ten years.
You know I'd be lost without you guys, right?
Yes! Honey!
You too, come here!
Okay, everyone hand over your phones.
If any of you are texting
with a guy, you're dead!
Where is it.
Hurry up and give it to me.
This bitch has a guy.
- You have a guy.
- You sneaky bitch.
- Who is it this time.
- No.
- Very suspicious.
- No I swear.
What's wrong with you?
No, it's really nothing.
Really Hold on
Oh?
Look! The fireworks!
Wow! It's fireworks!!
Now say it! Who is it?
What the hell! Huh?
Throw him!
I wrote my past relationships as novels.
Preserving them as perfect love.
But in reality, my love life
Ended in failure.
I wanted to understand why we left each other
through the process of writing a failed love,
but the only thing I knew from writing a novel
was the fact that I still
don't know much about love.
What are you doing, Kumakichi!
Let's go.
Wait, stop! Don't do it.
- What are you doing?
- Be careful.
If you write your wish on a lantern,
we will launch it into the sky for you.
I think she's Chinese.
On New Year's Day in China,
we have a tradition of writing our wishes
on a lantern and releasing them into the sky.
Let's do this.
[Porsche]
Should I do it?
- Slowly.
- Yeah. Be careful.
One, two, three!
Wow, wow! There we go.
Wow!
Oh, it's crazy. It's crazy.
Wow! Wow..
It's so pretty.
Wow, really..
Huh?
Huh? Hold on.
Wait, isn't that ours?
Oh no, our wishes are on fire!
Oh dear, it seems as though yours ripped.
What do I do..
It's fine. It's fine.
I wrote and rewrote my wish on the lantern,
because none of it seemed
to be what I truly wanted.
I guess I tore the lantern
while crossing everything out.
[Gyu Ho]
Let's go.
The only thing that I left
on the lantern, my two-syllable
was love.
That was my only wish.
