Backstreet Rookie (Convenience Store Saet-byul / Pyeonuijeom Saetbyeoli / 편의점 샛별이)

Yeon-joo, I have to get going.

What? Where?

- To the convenience store. - Why?

I have to check on something. It's urgent.

- What is it? - The part-timer girl.

I thought we were going to work out the whole night.

I think I've sweated enough.

- I'll call you later. - Okay.

I didn't know the part-timer was a girl.

Drink up.

If you mix alcohol, it's bad for you.

Are they serious right now? My gosh, okay.

Is she trying to suck me dry? She's unbelievable.

I'll put an end to you girls today.

You darn parasites.

Let me get you guys some more beer.

Will that be enough?

You should drink some hard liquor since it's going to be your last supper.

Mr. Choi?

Why are you here so early?

My shift isn't over yet.

You're off for good.

You came here to see me because you missed me?

I'm here to fire you.

- Girls, say hi to my boss. - What do you think you're doing?

- Say hi. - Don't say hi.

- Hello. - Hello.

Why is she asleep all of a sudden?

Hey, wake up!

You must've overworked her.

I can't believe that she fell asleep while drinking.

Nonsense. She didn't overwork herself,

she overdrank herself! You brats.

It has been three years, right?

He has such a great memory!

Of course, it's hard to forget someone as beautiful as I am.

I get that a lot. You may sit.

- - Sit down!

- Come on. - No!

Fine. I'm seated.

I hear that you suspected Saet-byul of stealing.

My, my! How could you be so awful?

What an awful boss you are.

Thank you, girls.

No, that was all a misunderstanding.

- Misunderstanding? - Misunderstanding?

There was nobody else but her to question.

That's why I made up for that by cleaning the whole store.

Why are you trying to change the topic?

What do you think you're doing at my store?

You're too loud.

No, I'm not!

Fine, we'll tell you if you're so curious.

Hold on. I think this is the perfect timing for more beer.

No!

This is beautiful. Look at this.

What do you want me to do with this?

You're no use for anything except for being eye candy.

What? What are you talking about?

You have the alcohol tolerance of a teenager.

- Yes, of a teenage boy. - That's why you can't drink.

What are you talking about? I can drink this.

- You want me to drink this? - Yes.

- I'm drinking it. - Okay.

I'm really going to drink it.

- One more glass since you're done! - One more glass!

There you go.

Seriously?

He left me all alone

to hang out with little girls?

How ridiculous.

Really?

- Really. You can bet your life on it. - It's true.

Why are you betting my life on this?

What I mean is that I'm that sure.

Really? Are you sure?

That was three years ago. She...

Really? I don't believe this.

This can't be.

Poor girl.

Whatever. Let's just...

- Let's just drink some more. - All right.

- Sure. - You have to chug this down at once.

- Chug it! - Chug it!

Look.

These two look like they're meant-to-be.

Meant to be an annoying couple.

Hey! Saet-byul!

Wake up, Saet-byul!

- What? - She's up.

- You saw that, right? - What happened?

Mr. Choi! What are you doing here?

Did you sleep well, Saet-byul?

We told him everything, so you sort it out with him, okay?

What did you tell him?

We told him everything about why you're working here

and all of your plans.

You're welcome.

How could you tell him everything?

- Look at that. - Look at that.

You should thank us for being your wing-women.

So what did he say?

He said

- nothing. He fell asleep. - Just like that.

He's a no from me. He's old and weak.

I think he stinks too.

Hey! What do you mean he stinks?

Let's go now. Want to take that cab?

- Where? Sure. - Is someone in there?

Sir, please get going!

Choi Dae-hyun, that man.

My goodness. Here.

How am I going to face him tomorrow?

That's right.

I applied to work here so that I can see your face every day.

I'm going to work hard and become a real employee,

so you just watch.

You won't regret hiring me.

Good night. I'll come back to wake you up later.

Don't leave.

Don't leave.

Please don't leave.

What's this? You were pretending to be asleep?

I guess

I could stay for a little longer.

Here.

Thank you.

Of course you are.

Sales have spiked since I started working.

Thank you,

Yeon-joo.

"Yeon-joo"?

Yeon-joo.

Did you just say Yeon-joo?

Yeon-joo...

Seriously?

What, Yeon-joo?

I can't deal with this.

How did it go?

No.

Give me a call when you see this.

Not this either.

Dae-hyun,

you looked like you had a blast.

[ Dae-hyun, you looked like you were having a blast. ]

Did I really send that?

I'm crazy!

Wait. Delete. Delete!

[ Dae-hyun, you looked like you were having a blast. ]

Three, two, one!

- Close! - Wait!

- You kids! - Please let us in.

- Just this once. - Where do you think you're going?

You can't go in.

Did you ever see me letting anyone off the hook?

Please!

This school is all about rules.

Go and stand over there.

And also,

how can you be late

- every single day? - Sorry.

Why are you always late?

- Good morning. - Hello.

Hwang Geum-bi!

Yes, sir.

You reek of alcohol.

Do you think it's appropriate for you to come to school

drunk like this when there are other students?

Hold your hands out.

- Hold your hands out! Close your eyes. - Oh, gosh.

How dare you?

You deserve this.

Drink this in three portions.

It'll make you choke if you drink it all at once.

- Really? - Yes.

Thank you.

I'll tell my dad how nice you've been to me.

No, I'm not doing this to kiss up to Chairman.

I'm an educator,

and this is just an innocent educator taking care of his pupil.

Of course, I understand. I can go now, right?

Yes. Dan-bi!

It's Hwang Geum-bi.

Sorry, did I say Dan-bi?

Today's lunch is

bean sprout hangover soup.

This is what I come to school for.

The food here is great!

That rude brat.

Mr. Choi Dae-hyun, you're under arrest

from buying cigarettes for underage minors three years ago.

What are you talking about?

What's happening? Hold on.

Make sure he gets sentenced to the longest time possible in jail.

Yeon-joo, why are you doing this to me?

I wanted a rough man, not a bad one.

How am I bad?

Ma'am,

I'm quite the rough man myself.

Yeon-joo, look here.
