Ping Pong Ball (탁구공)

Do a good job. If you find something,

let me know.

Gosh, it's so sticky.

It's monsoon season, and on top of that, there's the heat wave.

No wonder the body is in such a terrible condition.

Have you identified the body?

I found his resident ID in his shirt pocket.

People are saying he's a homeless man who lives near the stream.

He had a mother,

and it says here that she passed away in 2013.

He's got no other family.

Are you sure about it?

If his family turns up later, it will get troublesome.

Should I classify him as someone without family or friends?

Why did he have to die in the drainage?

Gosh.

A homeless man in town died.

He's the man who used to always buy alcohol...

at the convenient store around the corner of the intersection.

You know the man with a green hat. Don't you?

Even if he's a homeless man,

he wouldn't have walked into the drainage by himself.

Did someone murder him?

My goodness. I'm scared.

This isn't going to solve anything.

There's someone I like.

Because you confessed your feelings to me,

I don't even feel comfortable being friends with you now.

Honestly,

this is so annoying.

I have nothing more to say, so don't follow me.

I'm perfectly fine when I'm desperate to die,

but at this hour,

a stranger died at a place which I don't know.

Suppressed beings come to repent in any way.

The moment when people hear the news report about a dead person,

he is no longer dead.

The afterlife of the dead...

is provided within the memory of the living.

"Name, Kim Young Joon".

It means bright and talented.

"1203 Umyeon H Apartment,"

"Umyeon-dong, Secho-gu, Seoul."

You should be more careful in keeping your wallet.

I found out about your address unintentionally.

It's good to see you.

I can keep this money in my pocket, right?

It's not stealing as long as I have your permission.

It's giving and taking.

Stay seated.

I'm not done talking yet.

I found you unconscious on the street, so I moved you here...

and waited until you woke up, but what's this attitude?

You're acting like you've seen a ghost.

Is it your first time seeing a homeless person?

I need to head home now.

Is it okay to leave without this?

I guess not much important stuff is in here.

Give it back to me.

Don't be intimidated. I'll give it back later as a matter of course.

There, there.

Look,

I have a small favor to ask of you.

Favor?

There's a pub on the right side of the intersection...

in the neighborhood up there.

Don't you know?

Yes, what about it?

21-year blended whiskey.

It's what I left with the owner there.

I'd like you to go get the bottle for me.

I'm sure he'll give it to you without much trouble...

because I left the bottle with him in the past.

Don't you want to?

If you don't, take your wallet later.

Come get this back with my whiskey bottle.

These darn mosquitos. I should kill them all.

It's been a week since he didn't show up.

I guess he murdered the victim around that time.

I was the last person who spotted him.

Don't make me laugh. Who killed whom?

They all know how penniless each other is, so what for?

Plus, it's not new for homeless people to fight at a soup kitchen.

Don't be ridiculous.

That dead homeless man wasn't so ordinary.

Come on and stop it already.

Then again,

he was the editor-in-chief of the homeless magazine.

It's not like Mr. Bae worked with us,

but how could you say so recklessly just because he was homeless?

Do you have any idea how much they struggle to find their lives back?

You and I just don't speak the same language.

I got goose bumps...

when I realized how all the situations indicated to one another.

Don't you agree?

I'm sure the culprit is the homeless man living in the tent by the river.

Be careful on streets.

Don't go on a walk near that place.

Give me a glass of whiskey which I had yesterday with ice.

Excuse me.

I'm here to take...

the 21-year blended whiskey.

I heard the homeless man living in the tent by the river...

left it with the owner here.

What?

No such a customer has left me with anything.

Let me guess your emotional condition right now.

"I can buy a new wallet."

"I wonder if I should reissue my ID card."

"Oh, what should I do with my credit card?"

"Right, I already closed it."

"So why am I standing here like this?"

"Am I a pushover who gets bullied by a homeless man?"

I can tell you had such a series of algorithm in your head.

That's enough. Give me my wallet back.

Okay, okay.

Where's my whiskey?

This isn't what we promised.

You didn't leave anything there.

Why are you doing this to me?

Give it back to me before I report you to the police.

I see you're determined.

Okay, I'll give it to you.

Gosh, I left your wallet at home.

Cross the stream with me, and I'll return it to you.

Why must I, sir?

You're very polite.

You just added, "sir" in the end.

I think you're going to cross the water too.

Why? Is it because you're wearing nice running shoes?

Fine, fine. I'll help you.

You can just step on those rocks. Follow me.

Come this way.

Be careful. The water is deep. Okay?

You'll really give me back my wallet, right?

My gosh, I can't even make a joke with you now.

Come here. You can hold my hand.

Come here. You can hold my hand.

Come grab my hand. Come on.

Did everyone in your life fool you? Come here. Here you go.

Forget it.

Here. Hold my hand. Grab it. - I'm fine. Forget it.

Look what happened. Poor you. - Gosh.

Seriously. - I told you to grab it.

Come inside.

Come inside. Gosh, you're soaked. Poor you.

Here.

Come inside, and use the towel.

Let me see.

Give me back my wallet now.

Come sit. Sit down, and dry yourself.

Here you go. Dry yourself with this.

Oh, right. The socket.

The socket. It's right here.

Here you go. Take a seat.

There's a storage over there at the office that manages the stream.

And I'm using one of the power lines from the office.

Living here isn't that bad.

Gosh, I guess I'm not cut out to be a homeless.

It's hard for me to adapt to this life.

Since the tent isn't facing the south,

it's hot during summer and cold during winter.

Turn it on. It works.

See? It works. Dry yourself.

Here.

Do you like canapes?

You have a fancy wallet.

Don't you think an Italian leather wallet is too much for you?

Where did you get all these?

Why? You think I stole them? - Did you find them on the streets?

I'm a homeless, not a beggar.

I bought all these when I had money.

Why? You don't believe me?

Yes, that's the only thing I found from the street.

The kid got scared when she saw me. So I just picked it up.

I use it as an ashtray. It's broken.

Don't touch.

Gosh, that was for the whiskey.

It's not fun without alcohol.

When I was dragged here yesterday...

You weren't dragged here. I looked after you.

It was loud around here because of the siren.

Someone died in the underground ditch.

Did you not hear the news?

The police officers seemed shaken up.

They said that it was a murder.

It was on the news too.

I guess this is a soundproof tent.

Your clothes are dry now. When are you leaving?

I was just about to.

You used my wallet as an excuse and dragged me here.

Let's be clear about this. You willingly walked here.

You splashed the water all over me when you were coming here.

I was curious about the inside of this tent.

It looked small when it was dark.

It looks quite spacious in the afternoon.

Weren't you leaving?

This tent is soundproofed.

If you're going to come back,

bring a bottle of alcohol and a book to read.
