Angry Mom (앵그리맘)

Winner - 2014 MBC scenario contest.

What happened? Did they decide to stop the construction?

Who's your mom?

You should've been there to see the Vice Principal and Do Jeong Woo's expression.

You did well, Mom.

What?

Jo Bang Wool is Oh Ah Ran's mom?

What is this?

But doing this won't cause any retaliation on us, will it?

Don't worry. Now, we're not alone.

The real fight starts now.

What are you going to do?

We have to aim for the body.

Myeong Seong's annex construction isn't a simple construction.

It's a corruption case involving an educational foundation chaebol and a presidential candidate.

Kang Soo Chan, Chairman Hong and Do Jeong Woo...

We need to tie the three together and send them away at once.

There is no "friend" in the world!

If you let your guard down for a moment, they will stab you in the back!

But it's about time to eat, so why isn't the food coming?

Stay here. I'll go get you some food.

Jo Bang Wool was an ajumma?

Crazy...

She dares to stab my father in the back?

Hong Sang Tae...

You haven't left yet?

Bang Wool was here... for a moment...

Do you want to see Bang Wool?

Why would I see Jo Bang Wool?

Well, it would be good to take this chance to get to know one another.

And become friends too.

Friends?

There is no such thing as friends.

They would all stab me in the back, given a chance.

I should never have extended my courtesy to you.

Hong Sang Tae...

Humanity is like this.

People only hold onto you when they need you and

only stay friends when they need you.

Isn't it funny?

I thought you, at least, would be different from

the ones that brown-nose me, yet stab me in the back.

Because you only said the correct things in front of me,

I thought you were different.

I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in you anymore.

Leave.

Also, tell this to your mom.

She's done playing at school.

Hong Sang Tae!

Ow, that hurts!

Hong Sang Tae! Hong Sang Tae!

The food is here! The food is here!

Food! Food! It looks good!

Alright. Ouch!

-Where's Ah Ran? -Ah Ran left chasing Hong Sang Tae.

Hong Sang Tae came?

Why would Ah Ran chase after Hong Sang Tae?

I think he said something about Ah Ran's mom playing school.

He left saying something about playing at school is over.

Father!

Father!

Dad!

Hey, what are you doing?

Let this go once. I request this of you.

Don't tell on my mom, please.

Hey, Oh Ah Ran.

If it were you, would you be able to let go of someone who's planning to stab your father in the back?

Your mom is precious, but is someone else's father dog poop?

I will do whatever you want me to do.

Just please don't tell this to your dad.

No matter how shitty he is,

he's my father.

The thing your mom's doing right now is the thing that'll put handcuffs on my dad.

Give this to me.

Please.

What? Why do you keep calling me?!

Father. At school...

At school what?!

What have you been doing?

The school is in chaos and you don't even know,

while playing around with that guy, Jeong Woo!

At school, what?

Get to the point quickly before I get all pissed off!

Why did you stop talking? Hah?!

You seem to be busy. Just go back to your work.

The only son I have has to be so dim-witted.

You need to follow me in there.

I've been way too easy on you these days because I didn't have enough energy.

Follow me!

Follow me!

Hong Sang Tae.

Leave.

I said to leave!

That ajumma...

Is she your mom?

When he beats her up like that,

what mother would stay in this house?

She already left. Saying she would live on her own.

Don't look at me like that.

It's a hundred times better not to have a nagging mom.

Even so, I think that having one is better.

Putting me on top of (his) shoulders,

and scolding the boys if they are bothering me.

You have one.

That cockfighting rooster of a mom in uniform.

Not her.

I meant Dad.

You have a dad too.

When I was younger, I didn't have one.

And, that's why,

instead of my dad, my mom

would fight with the grandma who owned the house,

and the neighborhood boys' moms

and with the drunken men.

On days like that,

she would put me to sleep, then cry.

That's why,

I didn't like a mom who fought.

Because after a fight,

I know there's always crying.

But,

even though she always lost,

my mom kept fighting.

Even the day after she cried,

she would fight again.

She did it for me;

to protect me.

I know this is a really selfish thing to say, but

don't tell on my mom, Sang Tae.

If something happens to mom, I won't be able to live.

Oh Ah Ran!

Mom...

What are you doing right now? Where are you putting your lips?!

Ah... Jo Bang Wool, why are you here?

What Jo Bang Wool, my butt. Get up!

Mom!

You're crazy! Where do you think this is?

Hong Sang Tae, you! Let's talk later!

- Mom! - Let's go out.

I should be the one to be getting mad!

Shall I tell on her right now?! Right now?

No matter what, how could you just follow him here?

What were you going to do after crawling into the tiger's den all alone?

If I got caught, I could have just said that I came over to my friend's house to hang out.

You're saying that because you don't know what kind of person President Hong is.

Stay still.

This is the ledger from the initial phase of the annex construction.

Convert all the names of the people in charge to Do Jeong Woo.

Do you mean to make a double accounting boo...?

It was what Jeong Woo, that punk, planned from the beginning.

This is the fake one that Jeong Woo made after he stole my seal.

I'm telling you to make a real one separately. Do you understand what I'm saying?

- Yes, Chairman. - Understand, what do you understand?!

You, two . . .

I'm not patiently waiting by the side because I'm unaware of you getting all crafty behind my back.

The item that Jeong Woo's mother left behind, bring it to me quickly.

That's the only way you will survive. Got it?

Jo Kang Ja!

Just what the heck is wrong with you?

What do you want me to do that you keep doing this?

Ae Yeon...

The item that Do Jeong Woo's mother left behind that Chairman Hong was talking about...Give it to me.

Hey, Jo Kang Ja!

Trust in me.

Neither Chairman Hong nor Do Jeong Woo is your life line.

They are just going to use you and then throw you away.

I don't even trust myself.

Next time, even I don't know what I'll do. Don't appear in front of my eyes again.

How do you know that lady?

She's Mom's friend.

The one that told Ahn Dong Chil to kick you out from the school... was that lady.

I'm a little wary of that lady.

I feel as though she will even reveal your identity to Do Jeong Woo.

She won't do that. Right now, we can only believe that.

Let's get out.

Do you know what kind of mess you're getting into right now?

I know!

Then you've been attending school knowing everything?

How can you get in the way of your husband's job?

Mother-in-law, this work that he's doing is illegal!

They're using ghost (bogus) labor, faulty materials, shoddy construction, and...

The one in charge of that construction is none other than your husband!

How can a woman, who is a wife, do this?

All the more reason that I'm doing this.

Why do you think they put you in charge of this whole thing?

It's to push all the blame onto you!

Our Director is not that kind of person!

You're saying this because you don't know his true self.

For Ah Ran's sake... and for your sake... I'm going to block this construction.

This isn't something you can fix by getting involved!

Why are you interfering all by yourself when everyone else is staying still?

Bearing with it, whether they know or not, that's how everyone's been living!

Why? Because even if I try, it still doesn't work!

Because even if we try, we, who are powerless, are the only ones who will be hurt.

If you're going to continue like this...

We really will have to get a divorce.

Hey! Come back to your senses and take care of your household first!

Aigoo, really!

Aigoo! Frustrating!
