Parasite (기생충)

We're ruined!

No more free Wi-Fi.

Hey, Ki-jung!

Yeah?

The woman upstairs finally put a password on iptime.

A password?

Did you try "123456789"?

Yeah, doesn't work.

Try it in reverse.

I told you, it doesn't work.

Shit! Then no text, no Ka- Talk, no nothing?

That's right.

Hey, Kim Ki-taek.

Fucking don't pretend to sleep. What do you think?

Our phones are all shut off... Wi-Fi is all shut off...

Fucking what's your plan? Huh?

- Hey, Ki-woo. - Yes, father?

For Wi-Fi, you have to hold it up high.

Search out every corner.

Damn stink bugs!

Hey, here! I got it!

Really? You got it?

Yeah, you're getting it too?

This one, 'coffee land 2G.'

A new cafe opened up nearby?

Why can't I get it?

Come up here closer.

Hey kids?

- Is it working? - Yeah.

Then check on Ka-Talk.

Pizza Time said they'd contact me.

Ok, hold on.

Here it is. Pizza Time.

Wow, check this out!

At this speed, I think we can finish all these today!

We're getting paid today, right?

- She does it standing. - She's a pro!

What's that? Fumigation?

They still do that kind of thing?

Guess so.

Shut the window.

Leave it alone. We'll get free indoor fumigation.

And get rid of the stink bugs.

Right, too many stink bugs these days.

Oh, that smell!

I told you to shut it!

Should I shut it?

What's the problem exactly?

For example, have a look here.

You see this god-awful line?

And why is there a crease here? Huh?

Why is this sticking out?

That means you didn't finish folding it.

On inspection, 1 out of 4 were in this condition.

Roughly, 1 out of 4 are rejects.

So, you're really docking 10% off our pay?

Considering the fail rate, the penalty is very minor, don't you think?

But, our pay is so low already! Aren't you being too harsh?

You look here.

This is not a minor issue.

Do you know how much damage these faulty boxes cause to our brand image?

Brand? You don't even have a proper box folder, shit!

What did you say?!

Boss.

This is all because of that guy, isn't it?

What are you talking about?

That other part-time help, he went AWOL, right?

Just when you got that huge, important group order from that church.

How do you know these details?

Who told you?

My sister knows the guy.

He's always been a bit strange. He has a bad reputation around here.

Therefore, Boss.

The 10% penalty, we'll accept it.

In return...

In return?

Any thought of hiring new part-time help?

Sis, we need more hired help!

Fire that other part-timer. Hand him the termination penalty.

I'll come for the formal interview tomorrow. What time works best best for you?

Hold on a minute.

I need to think about this.

Then, let's start with the payment for these boxes.

So we've all gathered here today...

to celebrate the partial reconnection of our phones

and the bountiful Wi-Fi!

That bastard ! So early in the evening!

Why haven't you put up the 'No Urinating' sign?

I told you to!

No, a sign like that only encourages them...those drunkards.

At least yell at him!

No, don't shout.

"Please don't piss!" Fuck!

Huh? Is that Min-hyuk oppa?

Mister, what are you doing? That's not the toilet.

That is Min-hyuk.

Hey, punk!

What... what are you staring at?

Come over here, you little shit.

Get a fucking grip!

Your friend has spunk!

University students have real spirit. Spirit!

Unlike you, big brother.

But, is he coming here? Were you expecting him?

No.

Hello!

Min-hyuk, you've come!

Hey, what's up?

Have you been well, sir?

- Of course. - Hey, what's the ocassion?

I texted you. You didn't see it?

So sorry... during your meal.

No, no, we weren't eating.

- You've been well, Ki-jung? - Yeah, and you?

You should've asked to meet up. Why come all the way here?

Because of this.

This is for you, but it's so darn heavy.

Really? Put it down here.

Wow, what is this?

I told my grandfather that I'm seeing Ki-woo

and he insisted that I take this to him.

Wow, is this an artscape stone?

You can also call this a zen stone.

Wow, you know!

My grandpa has collected these stones since his military academy days.

Now downstairs, upstairs, living room, the study...

they're all filled with these.

This stone is said to bring material fortune and promotion to the family...

Hey, Min-hyuk!

This is really symbolic!

For sure! Truly, this is very timely.

Isn't it?

Please relay our deepest gratitude to your grandfather.

You could've brought something to eat.

Hey, what was that called? Artscape stone?

You collect those rocks too?

Hey, thanks to that rock, I got to see your parents. They looked healthy.

They're plenty healthy, just out of work.

Is Ki-jung also home bound these days? Not taking classes?

It's not that she doesn't want to. It's that she can't.

She's cute, huh?

Wow, is that her? The one you're tutoring?

Park Da-hye. High school sophomore.

Why don't you take my place as her English tutor?

What are you talking about?

It's tutoring for a rich family. They pay very well.

And, she's a good kid.

While I'm studying abroad, take good care of her.

What about your close university friends?

Why ask a deadbeat like me?

Why do you think?

Even the thought of it makes me sick.

My wolf-like bastard classmates fawning all over Da-hye?

It's revolting.

You into her?

Hey, I'm serious.

Year after next, when she enters university, I'm going to officially ask her out.

Until then, take good care of her.

If it's you, I can leave with trust.

Thanks for trusting me, but...

do you want me to pretend I'm a university student?

Ki-woo, think about it.

Two years before and after your military service

you took the university entrance exam 4 times.

Grammar, vocabulary, composition, conversation...

Honestly, when it comes to English

you can teach it 10 times better than those alcohol binging college pricks.

- I guess so. - Sure!

But, will that family accept me? I'm not even a university student.

We'll just BS a little.

It'll be alright! First of all, you're going on my recommendation, and...

how should I describe her mother...?

The madame's a bit simple.

Young and simple.

Simple?

What do you mean?

I don't know... Anyway, all's good. It's been good for me.

So you're doing this, ok?

Ok, then.

Hey, I hear Ki-jung is very talented with her hands.

...good with things like Photoshop.

With skills like this, why are you rejected to art schools every time?

Wanna die?

Excuse me, it's non-smoking here.

Yeah, sure. Give me that.

Ok.

Now the finishing touch ...in scarlet red.

Wow, I wonder if Seoul National University has a major in document forgery.

Ki-jung would be admitted top of her class!

So true, huh? Her skills!

Our boy's going for a job interview and no words of encouragement?

Son!

I'm proud of you.

Father!

I don't think of this as forgery or crime.

Because, for sure, I'm going to this university next year.

So, you've got a plan!

I think of it as having produced this document just earlier.

Who is it?

Are you... Da-hye's mother? How do you do?
