00:01:00What's wrong with you?
00:01:01Hey, you're supposed to finish chewing
00:01:04before you put more food in, alright?
00:01:06Nah, it tastes better when my mouth's full.
00:01:09You gotta be kidding.
00:01:10He's a monster!
00:01:13Oh, what's up?
00:01:14Come on, what are you?
00:01:16Hey, hey, hey, now get up!
00:01:17I'm about to keep that!
00:01:19Seriously!
00:01:20You're basically a homeless guy.
00:01:22You're gonna make yourself sick.
00:01:24Anna, can you carry me?
00:01:25Oh wait, your brother?
00:01:26He's working late tonight, he won't be home.
00:01:28Alright, that's great!
00:01:30You guys look alike?
00:01:31He handsome or what?
00:01:31Would you prefer if we look alike or not?
00:01:34Actually, I hope you guys are identical twins.
00:01:36Wow, ah, hi, how are you?
00:01:41Hey, hello.
00:01:53Alright, we're, we're in a safe zone now.
00:01:56I love it.
00:01:56I love it.
00:01:57Hwang Dongman's place?
00:01:58Right, my place, yeah.
00:02:00You can hang your coat.
00:02:01Hi, sweetheart.
00:02:04Oh, the director's workshop.
00:02:06Nice.
00:02:07Alright, let's see.
00:02:08Curtains, really?
00:02:09What is this?
00:02:13Aren't you full?
00:02:14It's your head, little guy.
00:02:16Hwang Dongman had to take out a loan to save you, right?
00:02:20Want one?
00:02:22You're so good with cats, Junhuan.
00:02:23Me too.
00:02:30What the heck is he doing over there?
00:02:32Hwang Dongman!
00:02:33Yeah, since you're here at my place, I'll give you each a towel.
00:02:38Oh, thanks so much.
00:02:39Here you go.
00:02:40Oh my, how lovely.
00:02:41Very good.
00:02:41Don't mind if I do?
00:02:42Thank you for coming.
00:02:43But of course, good sir.
00:02:44It's much appreciated.
00:02:45Hwang Dongman's birthday.
00:02:4680 years old?
00:02:47Who's Park Dongman?
00:02:48Someone's mother, I guess.
00:02:50Who's real?
00:02:50Someone's mother?
00:02:51Oh, very special.
00:02:53Oh, hey, there's no ketchup.
00:02:54What's the deal, huh?
00:02:55You can't have potato chips without ketchup.
00:02:58Ketchup?
00:02:59Hang on, I'll...
00:02:59You have some in there?
00:03:00Yeah.
00:03:03I've got...
00:03:05Seven-year-old ketchup.
00:03:06What?
00:03:07Seven years?
00:03:09No way.
00:03:16Here.
00:03:17Nope.
00:03:19No.
00:03:20No, no, no, no.
00:03:21Oh, no.
00:03:22No.
00:03:24Oh, fuck.
00:03:27I don't know.
00:03:292018.
00:03:30It says on the bottle, it's actually seven years old.
00:03:32Seriously?
00:03:33Yeah.
00:03:33It's fine, guys.
00:03:34Oh my gosh.
00:03:36What?
00:03:36Seriously?
00:03:37It's fine, yeah.
00:03:38You're crazy.
00:03:39Yeah.
00:03:40Have some.
00:03:41It's pretty good.
00:03:42How is it still good?
00:03:43Pretty good.
00:03:43I'm so confused right now.
00:03:45How is it still fine?
00:03:46Please eat slowly, all right?
00:03:48You have no idea how hard it is to keep for seven years.
00:03:50Hang on, I gotta get this on camera.
00:03:51Yeah.
00:03:52Wait, the label's worn.
00:03:53It looks like 2016.
00:03:55Hold still.
00:03:56Hold still.
00:03:57I need to get the date in the shot.
00:04:03Hey, what is that?
00:04:04What are you even doing?
00:04:05Just hang on a second.
00:04:08This is a big deal.
00:04:10Your show blew up.
00:04:11You just hit number one on the charts.
00:04:14Oh, jeez.
00:04:15Oh, jeez.
00:04:17Congratulations.
00:04:20Thanks, guys.
00:04:23Yeah.
00:04:24Thought if I got drunk I'd forget.
00:04:26I guess not.
00:04:28Is that bitch insane or what?
00:04:29I mean, our show's airing right now.
00:04:31And she goes on social media and posts photos.
00:04:33It breaks the illusion.
00:04:34And then of course she gets a comment saying she's tone deaf.
00:04:37And well, I liked it.
00:04:40I got an angry DM from her later on.
00:04:42I don't know, am I in the wrong?
00:04:43No.
00:04:44The show's airing tonight.
00:04:45She must know it was dumb.
00:04:47Yeah.
00:04:48A rom-com no less.
00:04:49I know, right?
00:04:50You know, when we get told off like that, it hurts.
00:04:55We go, was it my fault?
00:04:56We blame ourselves first.
00:04:59Self-reflection is the language of the weak.
00:05:02You think bad people ever bother reflecting?
00:05:06You'll be just fine.
00:05:08Reflecting is for losers.
00:05:09Yeah, I'm done reflecting.
00:05:10That's it.
00:05:11Hey, open your eyes.
00:05:13You can't do that with...
00:05:14Hey, you shouldn't try doing that without looking.
00:05:16Okay, Stevie Wonder?
00:05:18Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:05:19Come on.
00:05:20Holy crap.
00:05:20Here.
00:05:22I don't know.
00:05:23I don't know.
00:05:28Why do you care where I am right now?
00:05:31Who is it?
00:05:33Oh, Jungie, of course.
00:05:34Looks like Miss Oh isn't that different from any other dutiful mother.
00:05:37Checking what time her daughter's coming home?
00:05:42I've got a question, Miran.
00:05:44I'm just curious.
00:05:47Do you know how close she is to her biological daughter?
00:05:51No idea.
00:05:52Do they keep in touch at all?
00:05:54We don't talk about her daughter.
00:05:55It's taboo.
00:05:57Why?
00:05:58Who knows with her?
00:06:00I guess it does seem like it didn't end well at all.
00:06:06I mean, it was a divorce.
00:06:07Things aren't going to end well, but still.
00:06:09She might have sided with her dad.
00:06:12Still, I'd be pretty curious to meet her.
00:06:16Hmm.
00:06:17Why?
00:06:19Why not?
00:06:20I don't know this girl at all.
00:06:22But she knows who I am, right?
00:06:24It feels kind of unfair, doesn't it?
00:06:26It really is unfair, it is.
00:06:28Hang on, though.
00:06:28Oh, how old is she?
00:06:30Don't know.
00:06:30I don't know anything about her.
00:06:31I know her name, though.
00:06:33Byun Siyeon.
00:06:34Yeah, I overheard my mom talking on the phone once.
00:06:38Byun Siyeon?!
00:06:39Yeah.
00:06:41Oh.
00:06:43Byun Siyeon.
00:06:45But...
00:06:47Una thought about changing her name to Byun Siyeon.
00:06:50Huh?
00:06:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:06:54No, not Byun Siyeon.
00:06:56You can't be Byun Siyeon.
00:06:57Byun Una has to stay Byun Una.
00:06:59Byun Una.
00:07:00Byun Una is more interesting.
00:07:03Yeah.
00:07:03Yeah.
00:07:04Miss Byun Una, don't go turning into Byun Siyeon.
00:07:09Byun Una!
00:07:11Byun Una!
00:07:13Byun Una!
00:07:13Byun Una!
00:07:14Byun Una!
00:07:15Hey!
00:07:16Here, let...
00:07:17Let me...
00:07:24Whoa, yikes!
00:07:33Look, I got a...
00:07:35Mama, do you need help?
00:07:37No, it's okay.
00:07:38You can barely set up.
00:07:39Chill.
00:07:40They just gotta figure out who popped you into it.
00:07:43Please tell me I'm...
00:07:47Whoa.
00:07:49They don't look similar at all.
00:07:53He's so good looking.
00:07:55Okay, hold on.
00:07:56I'm worried you're gonna hurt yourself.
00:08:28Oh, my feet are cold.
00:08:34Miran, Miran, come here. Look at this.
00:08:36Miran, hurry up. Don't miss this. Look, look, it's gonna be really cool.
00:08:39Check it out. It's gonna be so cool. Give me a sec.
00:08:42Okay, now this should work.
00:08:43Nice. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Give him a hand with it, will you?
00:08:46Oh, okay.
00:08:47You know what this is, right?
00:08:49No, I don't...
00:08:49All right, watch. I'll hold it from the bottom like this.
00:08:51One, two, three.
00:08:53Win!
00:08:53Oh!
00:08:58Wow, look at that thing.

00:18:41hello how are you i very much enjoyed knock knock knock oh much appreciated
00:18:50shall we
00:18:51shall we
00:19:11Hey, so, you saw the funeral notice?
00:19:15When are you going to that?
00:19:24Wow, doesn't she have the most insane aura?
00:19:27How do you get a body like that at her age?
00:19:29Oh, and so giving.
00:19:30Isn't she just the best?
00:19:33That line about how people are just globs of feeling and passion,
00:19:36that really resonates.
00:19:40How'd you come up with a line like that?
00:19:47Well, you're right.
00:19:49If we were born out of bamboo shoots, had no parents,
00:19:52we'd have no one to ruin us or nurture us,
00:19:54no one to blame or grieve.
00:19:56It'd be a heavenly existence.
00:19:58God could have made our lives so much simpler, don't you think?
00:20:07I wanted to feel your lines on my lips,
00:20:09so I read the script out loud.
00:20:15There's depth to the writing.
00:20:16You seem to have a feminine sensibility, Chaeyoung.
00:20:20Are you in touch with your inner woman?
00:20:23No, I don't know.
00:20:25So why is the lead a man to begin with?
00:20:29The script would work the same way with a woman as the protagonist.
00:20:33Could even work better.
00:20:35Knock, knock, knock is unique.
00:20:37You can't pull it off with any actor.
00:20:39You need an actor that carries that emotional texture.
00:20:42Don't make the mistake of thinking you can pull out a performance like that on set.
00:20:46To really make it sing, you need someone who understands depth
00:20:49and knows how to get that pure little nugget of emotional truth in them.
00:20:54If you cast someone who overacts and turns it into an ego trip,
00:20:57you'll be in trouble.
00:21:00Obviously, you poured your heart into the script.
00:21:03You want to get on set and watch everything fall apart?
00:21:05With that kind of actor?
00:21:11Nobody will understand it like I do.
00:21:14Knock, knock, knock.
00:21:15Knock, knock, knock.
00:21:36You don't need to get someone to put their name on it.
00:21:39I'll just sign it myself and pay you directly.
00:21:56You're just not going to reply?
00:21:58At least say you understand.
00:22:23I understand.
00:22:24I told you to go home. Why are you back here again?
00:22:27What would I do at home by myself? Feeling okay?
00:22:31Well, better than yesterday.
00:22:33What happened to your nurse?
00:22:35I wanted her to take a break.
00:22:38Would you tell me what the cost is already?
00:22:40I mean, between the operation and assistance.
00:22:43It's so you live longer, alright? So just get better.
00:22:46Oh my goodness.
00:22:49Who sent those, by the way?
00:22:52You mean it wasn't you?
00:22:54Okay.
00:23:01Okay.
00:23:07Okay.
00:23:29Oh, wow.
00:23:31Young Soo, long time no see.
00:23:32How are you doing?
00:23:33Good, yeah.
00:23:34Oh, Dongman. Hey, I hear your film's getting produced.
00:23:38Oh, yeah.
00:23:39Hey, it's finally your turn, huh? Well, congrats.
00:23:42I appreciate that. Thanks.
00:23:48You have two episodes written? When you start shooting.
00:23:52How would I know that?
00:23:53I mean, if you don't, who does?
00:23:55We need actors whose schedules line up. The good ones are booked through the year after next.
00:24:00If the script's good actors don't matter, the good calligrapher doesn't blame his brushes.
00:24:04Yes, he does, very much. The better the calligrapher, the more expensive the brush he uses.
00:24:09In film, actors are everything.
00:24:12And that's why he sent your script to No Gang Shik.
00:24:16No Gang Shik and Oh Jong Hee, their names are practically proper nouns at this point, so I get it.
00:24:22Otherwise, it doesn't matter.
00:24:22You mean common nouns. Common nouns. Names are proper nouns, you fool.
00:24:28Every time I open my mouth.
00:24:30So stop acting like you know everything.
00:24:32Geez.
00:24:32You just don't like it when I talk.
00:24:34Well, who does?
00:24:35Pion Una.
00:24:38Who likes you, Kyung Se?
00:24:40Ko Hye Jin.
00:24:41She used to years and years and years and years ago.
00:24:45Hey, come here. Say hi.
00:24:47Wow, it's been forever.
00:24:48Take a seat. Here, here, here.
00:24:49How are you?
00:24:49You two were attached at the hip in college. And you still are, huh?
00:24:52No, no, not anymore. You're talking about ancient history.
00:24:56These two are sworn enemies now.
00:25:00No, it's okay. Sit, sit. Don't get up.
00:25:05Haha, sit.
00:25:06Hello, sir.
00:25:11Hey, hey, hey.
00:25:13You hear about the assault?
00:25:15On who?
00:25:17Cha Jong Min.
00:25:19If his co-star is too good in the part, he'll smack the guy to throw him off.
00:25:22Come on, there's no way he'd hit someone this day and age.
00:25:26Maybe it wasn't rough.
00:25:27But he did hit the guy.
00:25:29Oh, there you are. Good to see you.
00:25:33Oh, hey, how are you?
00:25:34Here, here. Why don't you have a seat?
00:25:36Oh, yeah, I will. Thanks.
00:25:37Hey.
00:25:37Hey, thanks for coming.
00:25:38Yeah, really.
00:25:40Ah, Jung San, I hear you're doing a streaming series this time.
00:25:44We'll see when it happens.
00:25:46We've got to start changing how we operate now.
00:25:48Movies are done, if you ask me.
00:25:50And Dong Man, I hear you're doing a film.
00:25:52Huh?
00:25:53A movie.
00:25:55Yeah, yeah.
00:25:56Good. Your persistence paid off.
00:25:58Oh, here, to your health.
00:25:59Thanks so much.
00:26:03Your mother, is she doing good?
00:26:08Dong Man, you're at my mother's funeral right now.
00:26:15Did you come for the food?
00:26:26Oh, that rude little punk.
00:26:31Hey, relax, alright?
00:26:32Just let it go.
00:26:34Okay?
00:26:34Just let it go.
00:26:36How am I gonna do that?
00:26:37The guy can't act to save his life, but do you think I should just ignore that?
00:26:41Huh?
00:26:44Thinks he's some hotshot, but he's barely got a command of the basics.
00:26:52Hi, how are you?
00:26:55We met fairly recently.
00:26:58Right by the bar, Ajit.
00:27:01You shook my hand hard.
00:27:03Ow.
00:27:03Ow.
00:27:04Ah!
00:27:07So what's your point?
00:27:10I wanted to formally introduce myself.
00:27:15Wang Dongman. Nice to meet you, Wang Dongman.
00:27:18I'd be honored to put you in my movie.
00:27:23Hey.
00:27:27Approaching someone is a delicate art.
00:27:29If just anyone comes up to me like this, you think I'm obligated to listen?
00:27:33Look, I have an agent.
00:27:35Oh, um, I sent this to your agency.
00:27:38Haven't heard back yet.
00:27:41I'd be honored to have you in my movie.
00:27:44Oh, come on.
00:27:44I know exactly what that means.
00:27:46I want you to help me succeed.
00:27:48I need a win on this one.
00:27:49Why?
00:27:51Why should I do anything for you, kid?
00:27:56Do you know me?
00:27:58Have we been on a shoot together?
00:28:02What have you done?
00:28:05What have you done?
00:28:10What have you done?
00:28:13Uh...
00:28:13Nothing yet.
00:28:15This is...
00:28:16It's my first project.
00:28:20Have some humility.
00:28:22I get that you're ambitious.
00:28:23The thing is, I am too.
00:28:24Always have been.
00:28:25I worked hard as hell to make it.
00:28:27Why would I suddenly team up with a nobody like you?
00:28:33Listen.
00:28:34You should work your way...
00:28:37To this level.
00:28:39You understand?
00:28:42For now, you need to play in your own league.
00:28:44Don't get a big head.
00:28:46All right?
00:28:48Damn kids these days.
00:28:50They're all ambition and no respect.
00:28:52They'll approach anybody.
00:28:56Hey, you should go.
00:28:57Okay?
00:29:02You must earn a fortune.
00:29:05What, a loan?
00:29:06If I had money to last me for the rest of my life,
00:29:09I'd do whatever projects came my way.
00:29:12Seriously.
00:29:13Oh, and I wouldn't get into fights with kids half my age to short my fragile ego.
00:29:18Just let me work with you.
00:29:21Before you get cancelled for assault.
00:29:23Get out.
00:29:24Get out.
00:29:25Let's go.
00:29:27That is the most goddamn riveting face in the whole world.
00:29:31I want to send fill the screen.
00:29:33I don't mean on a phone.
00:29:34Shut the hell up.
00:29:35We're talking huge on the big screen.
00:29:37Hey, what's wrong with you?
00:29:39Hey.
00:29:40The title of the script is Weathermaker?
00:29:42Sounds like you're playing God.
00:29:45Lunatic.
00:29:51Don't come back.
00:30:01He's mentally ill, I swear.
00:30:42You are having a hard time.
00:30:42You, the text is built in a hospital.
00:30:42You are having to put yourself on the side.
00:30:42You might not be doing it, but you could use them.
00:30:43You might not be doing it.
00:30:47You'll have to hang out.
00:30:47You're not getting ready.
00:30:47It's very happy.
00:30:47You're not getting ready.
00:30:49You're not getting ready.
00:30:54You're having to be ready.
00:30:55You're having to be able to make it.
00:30:55That's a great resource.
00:31:06Well, look for a production office.
00:31:09This is about as good as it gets, right?
00:31:11Hope you're right, considering what the rent is.
00:31:13Beautiful view.
00:31:15Che Gyeong, the cinematographer.
00:31:17He in?
00:31:18Yes, he's gonna do it.
00:31:20Took some serious convincing.
00:31:22It wasn't easy, but I got him.
00:31:23Great work.
00:31:24Key crew members locked down,
00:31:26so all we gotta do is make a big hit.
00:31:29I'll do my best.
00:31:33So?
00:31:34You thought about it?
00:31:37Oh Jung Hee's idea.
00:31:39Oh.
00:31:42Tell me what you think, sir.
00:31:44I'm not the director.
00:31:45It's your decision.
00:31:50With No Gang Sik,
00:31:52I feel like he might bulldoze
00:31:54me on set.
00:31:55It'd be hard to control.
00:31:57So maybe it would be better to go with the actor that really gets the script.
00:32:02And with No Gang Sik,
00:32:05well, it's a risk.
00:32:07With all the rumors.
00:32:15Put No Gang Sik's contract on hold for now.
00:32:19Yes, sir.
00:32:21Also, Che Young is going to be the only name on the contract,
00:32:24and he'll pay Young Sil directly.
00:32:25Said it was her idea.
00:32:27You think it was really her idea?
00:32:29Bet you anything it was his.
00:32:31Oh Jung Hee's eyes for scripts is legendary.
00:32:34She said it had a woman's touch.
00:32:35I think she's right.
00:32:37Young Sil wrote this script.
00:32:39Don't say a word.
00:32:42And don't ever bring this up with Ma Jae-yong.
00:32:44He'll be furious with us.
00:32:46Yeah.
00:33:02What?
00:33:05Yes.
00:33:15Don't say a word.
00:33:21So, how many names do you have?
00:33:25Pyong Xion, Pyong Una, Young Shil.
00:33:33Yeah, I know it's you.
00:33:35My real name's Pyong Una. Young Shil's my pen name.
00:33:39You choose it yourself, Una?
00:33:40Yes.
00:33:43Why Una? Why did you pick that name?
00:33:45Why Xion, huh? What made you pick that one?
00:33:48You picked the name, right?
00:33:50It's sophisticated. Seems special.
00:33:53Exactly. You're not even Christian and you gave your kid a religious name.
00:33:57You project a lot onto that child.
00:34:00The name is clearly forcing her to be special.
00:34:05Isn't that only natural?
00:34:07Trying to inspire your child to grow into someone special?
00:34:10Some parents would choose Young Shil because they want a normal life for their child.
00:34:16Your partner, your child, etc.
00:34:19You need everybody in your orbit to be unique and special so you can stand out.
00:34:23I was quiet and introspective.
00:34:27You looked at me like I was deranged or broken.
00:34:31I'll never forget that.
00:34:33In the end, you abandoned us, your husband and your child.
00:34:40We call that ambition if you make good.
00:34:43If you don't, it's self-absorption.
00:34:46It's pretty clear I was a woman with tons of potential.
00:34:49Should I have abandoned my ambition and settled?
00:34:53You're the one being inauthentic.
00:34:56You have ambition, too. You're just suppressing it.
00:34:59You want the credit for that film.
00:35:01Knock, knock, knock is brilliant and you want people to know you're Young Shil.
00:35:04But at the end of the day, you're too scared of getting torn apart.
00:35:08Must be comfortable for you.
00:35:10Masked by your pen name while milking your ego.
00:35:12Is it?
00:35:15Bet you're dying to reveal yourself right now.
00:35:17You must be on fire.
00:35:20Ma Chaeyoung getting the applause, that's gotta be painful.
00:35:26Just be honest.
00:35:28I'm Young Shil.
00:35:29I'm Oh Jung-hee's daughter.
00:35:32You've been pretty defiant and bold.
00:35:34That's what Mr. Chaey told me.
00:35:36If it weren't for me, would you really be that courageous?
00:35:40Go ahead. Keep making my life miserable.
00:35:42I'm coming for you.
00:35:43You're gonna be humiliated soon enough.
00:35:47Tell me you weren't thinking that.
00:35:53I think you're the one that's inauthentic.
00:36:21You said you were going to make it big.
00:36:23You told me you wouldn't put up with it if I came around.
00:36:27You wouldn't let me be a parasite on your success.
00:36:30That sounds great, but...
00:36:32When are you going to shine?
00:36:35Stop hiding behind that pen name.
00:36:46Hi, good to see you.
00:36:48How are you?
00:36:49Hi.
00:36:49Hi, morning.
00:36:50Seriously?
00:36:51I know.
00:36:52Aren't you going to say hi?
00:36:59Oh, yeah.
00:37:00Hello.
00:37:02What did he say he liked about you?
00:37:04Wait, what?
00:37:06That's a secret, obviously.
00:37:08Oh, my gosh.
00:37:08No, come on.
00:37:09You can tell me.
00:37:10I won't say a word.
00:37:11I promise.
00:37:12No way.
00:37:14You're hilarious.
00:37:19Seriously, don't tell Elizabeth.
00:37:21Oh, my gosh.
00:37:23Jeez.
00:37:24Oh, it sounds like you had fun.
00:37:26Yeah, it was so fun.
00:37:27For real, don't tell anyone about that, okay?
00:37:28I don't really.
00:37:29I don't really.
00:37:42Is this your first time cracking up?
00:37:44Yeah.
00:37:45You're overdoing it a bit, like you just figured out how to laugh.
00:37:48Do you laugh like that all the time?
00:37:50Seems like when I'm around you, do it quite a lot.
00:37:54I've always loved to laugh.
00:37:59Hey, listen.
00:37:59We don't see eye to eye.
00:38:01I'd be more careful out there.
00:38:03You know that all the viewers are saying to watch yourself and stay in your lane.
00:38:08Did I mention that I almost became a shaman?
00:38:11I still have premonitions sometimes, and seriously, you should be careful, okay?
00:38:15There's trouble coming your way.
00:38:18You want to shake things up and make a stink just to see what it feels like.
00:38:22You're that girl who's only ever been known as some guy's arm candy, but before long, she's
00:38:26tired of being a pawn, of being a side character, then at some point, she loses it.
00:38:30She makes it her mission to be the main character.
00:38:39If you want to hold on to your status as some guy's date, tread lightly or you'll be sorry.
00:38:52You know, people who say they can see things, premonitions or whatever, that's so annoying.
00:39:00They can never see their own future.
00:39:04Word is out in our community in New York.
00:39:07Chairman Zhang's living with another girl.
00:39:10You only matter because you're Oh Jungi's daughter.
00:39:12That's the only reason people watch your work.
00:39:16Once your relationship's over, you'll be irrelevant.
00:39:21So what's it like to be living alongside a stepmom you're not even related to while your dad's with another
00:39:28woman?
00:39:30Oh, is that why you cling to any man with a pulse?
00:39:34Because you have nothing else to attach yourself to?
00:39:37Honestly, you should be ashamed stalking someone else's boyfriend like that.
00:39:45What the?
00:39:46Get off me!
00:39:47I've been dreaming about ripping every damn hair off your head.
00:39:50Well, that feels great.
00:39:51You, you slut!
00:39:55I was raised in a goddamn loving family, okay?
00:39:57Every day my grandma goes to church to pray for me at dawn, and she gives me fresh tonics.
00:40:02She still pampers me like crazy.
00:40:04I just can't handle all the love flowing through my life.
00:40:06I'm like this because I'm bursting with love.
00:40:10Is it a crime to have too much love in you?
00:40:12If I were you, I'd be hugging me and crying.
00:40:14I would be crushed because I couldn't bear to share some loser like Yonu.
00:40:17Think you beat me?
00:40:18You think you won, huh?
00:40:20You know what's ridiculous about the way you think?
00:40:23Whoever has the most love is the weakest.
00:40:26That's your outlook in a nutshell.
00:40:28It's idiotic.
00:40:29That's why you're so sad and useless.
00:40:31You can't even tell the difference between real life and acting, you psycho bitch!
00:40:35Get off!
00:40:37Stop!
00:40:40Shit!
00:40:48Let's go.
00:40:50Come on.
00:40:52You're gonna pay for this, you fucking lunatic!
00:40:54Try me, you pathetic little bitch.
00:40:56Go ahead.
00:41:07The CCTV camera's got it all.
00:41:10You'll be hearing from us.
00:41:11All right.
00:41:12Bye.
00:41:12Bye.
00:41:15Bye.
00:41:15Bye.
00:41:16Bye.
00:41:17Bye.
00:41:27Bye.
00:41:28Let's talk later.
00:41:30Bye.
00:41:50Bye.
00:41:52Let's go.
00:41:53Action!
00:41:54Action!
00:41:55Action!
00:42:16They can't release the footage.
00:42:19As for them threatening to press charges for stalking,
00:42:22we have plenty on them too.
00:42:24They'd run into big problems.
00:42:26Don't worry about it.
00:42:27We're okay.
00:42:36I think mother-daughter is our angle.
00:42:39Until the end.
00:42:59Hey, so what's your purpose?
00:43:10To live lightly.
00:43:16I want to get rid of my worldly possessions.
00:43:21I don't want to get attached to material objects.
00:43:26To live lightly.
00:43:27To live lightly.
00:43:35I don't know.
00:45:34We work our fingers to the bone, like we'll never disappear.
00:46:05Like we'll never disappear.
00:46:12Like we'll never disappear.
00:46:17Like we'll never disappear.
00:46:47Like we'll never disappear.
00:46:58Like we'll never disappear.
00:47:22Like we'll never disappear.
00:47:42Like we'll never disappear.
00:47:45Like we'll never disappear.
00:47:46Like we'll never disappear.
00:47:50Well, sort of.
00:47:51I'm the tone man of my generation.
00:47:54I'm sick of you guys.
00:47:55I want every one of you to succeed.
00:47:57I mean it.
00:47:58I'm not gonna make it anyway, so I want the people around me to take off.
00:48:01That way I can write their coattails.
00:48:04Nothing like coattail writing.
00:48:07Seriously, why aren't any of you trying to live off crumbs?
00:48:09I mean we can't all fail here.
00:48:12One of you guys has to succeed, so I have something to live off of, right?
00:48:17Is she a good writer?
00:48:19She's not.
00:48:20Hey, what's that supposed to mean?
00:48:21So what if I suck at writing?
00:48:22I bring other stuff to the table.
00:48:24I inspire people.
00:48:25I'm a crazy girl.
00:48:27I want to be used.
00:48:28Oh, and use you we will.
00:48:31Hey, here's to using her.
00:48:35No coattails for me.
00:48:36I won't settle for these pathetic crumbs either.
00:48:39Hell, I'd rather buy some talent even if I have to sell my soul for it.
00:48:43Sell your soul?
00:48:44Sell your arm instead.
00:48:45You don't even know if there's such a thing as a soul.
00:48:48You could sell it a hundred times, a thousand times.
00:48:50So, Young, would you sell an arm for it?
00:48:53Because for Korean people, it works way better.
00:48:56How about someone can make you the greatest and most famous director on the planet?
00:49:02For the price of an arm.
00:49:05Geez, if I was the top director in the world.
00:49:08Tough.
00:49:14Huh? Too much?
00:49:17Yep, I'd do it.
00:49:17Oh, come on, says the woman who's just gonna ride coattails.
00:49:21Well, that's because I have no filmmaking talent at all.
00:49:24If I did, I'd be wearing my own coat.
00:49:26Heh.
00:49:29You doing? Looks pretty positive.
00:49:32Look at her eyes.
00:49:33She's already selling it on the dark web.
00:49:34Who would buy it?
00:49:35I think I can spin this into a different version of Sister Vengeance.
00:49:40Might want to keep your right arm.
00:49:42Your script's good.
00:49:45Dialogue's better than my husband's, for sure.
00:49:50You're making real progress.
00:49:52If it meant making Gyeongsae a big success, I would've sold both of my arms already.
00:49:58Oh gosh, he's just so adorable.
00:50:01Such a great guy.
00:50:08You want Gyeongsae?
00:50:14Oh, oh, oh.
00:50:16I'm sorry, wait a minute.
00:50:19Huh?
00:50:20Oh, it's not like that.
00:50:22Oh.
00:50:27Your wife is good with the blade.
00:50:28Looks like she has all of her limbs.
00:50:30Oh.
00:50:30I better go.
00:50:31I'll see you.
00:50:32Hang on, we'll go with you.
00:50:33Yeah, wait for us, okay?
00:50:34We'll walk you home.
00:50:35Ween up a second.
00:50:36I'm going to head home first, alright?
00:50:38I've gotten early with you.
00:50:41I'm going to head home first.
00:51:06Uh, hi there.
00:51:10Oh, sorry.
00:51:11Chang Miran, how are you?
00:51:13Uh, I was actually the one who sang at your cousin's wedding.
00:51:26Uh, you must not have seen it.
00:51:35I just, uh...
00:51:39had to put a face to those words.
00:51:44I guess I had to know what kind of person writes a book like that.
00:52:07Thank you for revealing the truth with your poetry.
00:52:11It meant a lot.
00:52:15Thank you for revealing the truth with your poetry.
00:52:16It meant a lot.
00:52:16It meant a lot.
00:52:22It meant a lot.
00:52:25It meant you.
00:52:27You were the one who sang at your husband.
00:52:32I was so.
00:52:45I washed my face, but it won't come off.
00:52:51I pair my nails, but something won't be trimmed away.
00:52:58I even wrung out a wet rag and scoured the floor.
00:53:03But the stain won't lift.
00:53:07Somewhere there remains a blemish, a wrong.
00:53:20So I set the table and sit, and I see a glass.
00:53:30Of course, it's Flicker.
00:53:57We need to talk.
00:53:59Let's go.
00:54:00Come on.
00:54:01Everyone out there said switching to a woman is fine.
00:54:04Then you come along, dig your heels in, and poison the well.
00:54:07You think all the other producers are idiots?
00:54:09You disagree so I'm supposed to rethink it, even though the director said yes?
00:54:13You think you're the writer?
00:54:14You keep yammering on about knock, knock, knock.
00:54:17It's not that kind of story, blah, blah, blah.
00:54:19You need to learn when to shut up.
00:54:21Don't think you wrote something just because you recognized that it was solid.
00:54:25Do you even know what it takes to write a script?
00:54:28You want to be Yongxil's apprentice for a month?
00:54:30You want to jump in the deep end and see if you can swim?
00:54:33I think you just wish you were a writer.
00:54:36The producers with no talent always lose their mind over a good script because they want to
00:54:40pretend that they wrote it.
00:54:41So they rant and rave about it.
00:54:43Please stay in your lane, okay?
00:54:45And don't get all cocky just because you think you're something special.
00:54:49You are not.
00:54:55I'm Yongxil, sir.
00:55:01It's true.
00:55:03I wrote it.
00:55:09And Ma Jae-young's desperate to keep that a secret.
00:55:39I wrote it.
00:55:59The number you are trying to reach is unavailable.
00:56:03Ah, that asshole.
00:56:04Hey, just take it easy.
00:56:06Come on.
00:56:10It's not the first time he's done this.
00:56:13Going back on some offer.
00:56:20Hi, hi, hi.
00:56:22How's it going?
00:56:24How are you?
00:56:29I'll take a beer.
00:56:30Is that his only outfit?
00:56:36Wait.
00:56:41Okay, allow me to tell you about this coat.
00:56:43We've heard that story a million times already.
00:56:45Why not?
00:56:46I mean, he hasn't heard it, though.
00:56:47Sure, here.
00:56:47Shut up and drink, yeah?
00:56:49No, no, no.
00:56:50Hey.
00:56:51This garment here, this illustrious jacket, saw some serious military action in World War II.
00:56:56See this?
00:56:57A real bullet hole.
00:56:59This was worn by a young Russian soldier who stood his ground amidst the forces of history,
00:57:04with bullets and bombs all around him.
00:57:06I wear this coat every day.
00:57:08I wear it to show my resolve and dedication to film.
00:57:12My desire to march defiantly and bravely into the whirlwind of global history.
00:57:18As long as I've got this on, you can't hurt me with harsh words.
00:57:22I'm a loser and nobody not with this coat.
00:57:25Insults just bounce off.
00:57:27Nothing that you say can hurt me in this.
00:57:31This thing took a bullet on the battlefield in a world war.
00:57:35You think puny little words can harm me?
00:57:37Never!
00:57:40Wow, hey.
00:57:41Well done.
00:57:42How was it?
00:57:43I love that story.
00:57:45Here, make a stand for you.
00:57:45Cast me a bottle, yeah?
00:57:46Yeah.
00:57:47Catch a breath, have a beer.
00:57:48Dong Ban only wears things with a story.
00:57:50He got his laptop from his late father.
00:57:52He buys his shoes at this little shop he's been going to for 20 years.
00:57:55He's obsessed with these personal stories.
00:57:57Well, in order to have a life, you have to have a story, right?
00:58:00We'd all be dead if we didn't have stories, you know?
00:58:03Sounds like a homeless guy, not a director.
00:58:06Wow.
00:58:07That'll be a quiet sit.
00:58:08Listen, I'm not motivated to work towards success.
00:58:12I don't care if I crash and burn.
00:58:14I'll be just as happy to have made the effort at all.
00:58:17And I'll pray hard for everybody that lost money investing in me.
00:58:20I'll pray that they eventually hit it big,
00:58:22make a massive fortune, and are rich and happy for generations.
00:58:27Those who called me a loser and second-rate hack, burn in hell!
00:58:36Oh, yeah, I'm going to pray really hard for that, too.
00:58:39I hope you fail.
00:58:40Please fail.
00:58:42Please fail.
00:58:43I'll even do rituals to convince the gods.
00:58:46See that?
00:58:47I'd never do a ritual for my own career.
00:58:49I'm praying that your careers crash and burn.
00:58:52I'd borrow heaps of cash for it.
00:58:54Hey, come on, stop it.
00:58:56Just give it a rest.
00:58:57Give it a rest.
00:58:58Why?
00:58:59I'm having fun.
00:59:00Okay.
00:59:00It's all about fun, you guys, because this is all our life story.
00:59:04Okay, okay, just keep it down, keep it down.
00:59:07He's making me want to be in it.
00:59:08A million tickets, who cares?
00:59:10What's the point of being rich?
00:59:11It's film.
00:59:12If your entire life story is a dud,
00:59:14if I had that kind of money, I'd be high on the hog.
00:59:16I'd live like a boss.
00:59:18Remind me of your name.
00:59:20Wang Dongman, you peon!
00:59:23Fine, I'll do your film.
00:59:28Let's do it, Wang Dongman.
00:59:30Hang on, what are you doing?
00:59:31You haven't even read the script yet.
00:59:51Wait, are you hearing this?
00:59:54Sir, are you...
00:59:55I really wouldn't...
01:00:03I'm in.
01:00:04I'll do half my rate.
01:00:10It's government funded, right?
01:00:13So half is fine.
01:00:15Uh, let's strike while the iron's hot.
01:00:17Should we get that in writing?
01:00:18Sure thing.
01:00:20Go get the contract.
01:00:38Hold on, slow down.
01:00:39Hurry, come on.
01:00:40We have to hurry.
01:00:45Oh, wow, this is crazy.
01:00:48Mr. No?
01:00:48No.
01:00:49You're drunk right now.
01:00:52Don't do it.
01:01:19Oh, my God.
01:01:22I love this.
01:01:23That's so good.
01:01:24This or no?
01:01:25Oh, he sucks.
01:01:26I really like that man.
01:01:55Come on.
01:01:57Look at him.
01:01:59Oh, he's speechless.
01:02:04Thank you, sir.
01:02:08Let's get to the battlefield and make history.
01:02:13Yup.
01:02:22Oh, my God.
01:02:39Oh, my God.
01:02:52Oh, my God.
01:02:55Oh, my God.
01:02:55Oh, my God.
01:02:56You're going to be huge, Hong Dong-Gun.
01:02:58Since No Kang-Shik's on board now, I'm worried that it might be too successful.
01:03:03Let's not tell everyone that you're Yong-Shil.
01:03:06One of the writers doesn't want me on Knock Knock Knock.
01:03:09I was wondering if you could explain the reason, Yong-Shil.
01:03:13Who the hell do you think you are, trying to get rid of Oh Jong-Hil?
01:03:16And you wanted to admitted your Yong-Shil to Chae?
01:03:18You bastard, do a cone right now!
01:03:20Hey, let it go.
01:03:21Hey.
01:03:21If you're going to expose it all, do it after my film.
01:03:24Please let him do my movie first.
