When Life Gives You Tangerines (폭싹 속았수다)

WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU TANGERINES

Is he a spy? He's not, is he?

I heard he was born and raised in Busan.

Hey, Kim.

The kid doesn't decide what he is.

That's for Namsan CIA to decide.

You finished the food. Were you hungry?

Keep your head down.

Head down. Is this a theater?

These kids run away because the government feeds them.

These punks with their heads full of crap need to be sent to Namsan.

Putting them behind bars would be patriotic.

How sweet. They're in love.

Have you lost your mind, kid?

You're in the big city now, Jeju boy.

Why roll up your sleeves?

How dare you act tough in front of a big-city senior officer!

- You punk! - Are you a lord?

If you hit us, must we take it? If you send us to Namsan, must we go?

How sweet. Double trouble.

Can you believe this? These little punks are shameless!

So what if I am?

Is it illegal? Will I get locked up? Am I going to Namsan?

You smoke, don't you?

You smoke, and you wear miniskirts?

Am I going to Namsan for that?

That lady reported us as runaways, right?

She couldn't say anything else because she felt guilty.

What else? Did you steal something? You caused more trouble, right?

We're not being held here because we hit anyone or stole anything.

We're minors who need the protection of the Busan Police.

That's why

we're also quietly waiting for our guardians, so--

- Shall we serve you? - Don't hit him in the head!

Send this girl to the National Assembly.

Oh man.

I didn't know Romeo and Juliet were from Jeju.

Aren't you calling your mothers?

They don't need to.

The woman camping out front is the boy's mother.

What?

This one is handsome.

This one is vixen-like.

Here she comes.

Mom.

Mom.

- Where's the bag? Where's my stuff? - What?

Where's my jewelry?

My gold… Good grief!

Where's my gold frog?

Where's my gold frog?

Is it real?

It is real gold, isn't it?

It is.

He always does too much.

He's like this for every wedding anniversary.

He just can't wait to buy me gifts on special days.

Is that so?

Our cabinet is chock-full of jewelry.

I'm clearing out anything out of style.

Give me a good price.

Is that so?

You gave me a good price for the jewelry last time.

You came last summer and said it was your anniversary.

Isn't your anniversary in the summer?

Your husband got you a gold bracelet back then, right?

No, it's in the spring.

Is that so?

What if it is?

Is that a problem?

Hello.

- How much is it? - 300 won.

- Give it to me. - Okay.

- No, give it to me. - To me.

Give it to me.

Just give it to me.

No, don't give it to her. Just give it to me.

Hey, I'm the owner. Why would he pay you?

- Is this your inn? - It's my money anyway.

This woman stole my bag, so I'm taking whatever I can from her.

No. Give it to me.

I'll come back later.

Wait, hold on!

Where are you going? Wait…

Just go away.

Gonna stay all night?

Hey, you know why there are no thieves in Jeju?

Why? Are Jeju folks epically generous?

We wear them down. We keep going until they're sick of it.

It's the thief, not the victim, who ends up cracking

because we wear them down.

Wow, you lunatic.

For Christ's sake.

You're a lunatic!

An absolute lunatic!

Completely out of your damn mind!

I'm taking what I'm owed, no matter what.

I'll be here day and night until I get what my gold toad is worth.

What? Did you say gold toad?

Give me my gold toad.

Hey.

So the gold frog is a gold toad now?

You're the thief--

Do you have a frog's brain?

What can you do? You should give her the gold frog back.

It's too late now. Give me a gold toad now.

You're one brazen robber, aren't you?

I bet you've got a criminal record.

You do, don't you?

Should we call the cops?

- Should we call the cops? - Ma'am!

- Ma'am! - What the hell?

Why did you go to the jewelry store? Why?

This will be your tenth offense.

Think of your child, will you?

Let's go.

Don't let anyone from Jeju stay while I'm away.

Take her away.

Get off me!

This is her tenth offense?

Wow, she's got some nerve.

Hey, you better pay for the fan!

Pay for the fan!

Were you performing circus acts in there?

How did you even manage to break it?

Well done! Great job!

Hey, stop pushing me!

My goodness.

Did you buy the tofu already?

No.

I didn't buy it.

The lady bought it for us.

What about your first birthday rings? You didn't bring them with you?

Didn't you take them too?

Everything we took was in the bag.

Your dad… That worthless mutt.

Dogs are better

than both you and your father.

Ae-sun, let's go home.

You've really done it this time, Ae-sun.

YESTERDAY WAS YOUR SPRING

You've really done it, Ae-sun.

FACULTY OFFICE

She should've done it on her own.

Why drag down another family's eldest grandson?

I heard he's one of the top four athletes in Jeju.

Well, she's the poet of class eight.

Poet, my foot.

She wants to be a poet, but dating is the best she can do?

POEMS OF YU CHI-HWAN HANDKERCHIEF OF ETERNAL NOSTALGIA

EXPULSION NOTICE OH AE-SUN

DUE TO AN UNAUTHORIZED RUNAWAY AND DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR

You've completely ruined your life!

People exaggerate everything on this island.

I can't even show my face at the wholesale market.

You've brought shame to our family!

And Jong-gu made us proud?

How can you compare him to her?

A man can lose his land or his home while running a business.

Why do you keep bringing him up?

Did he run a business? He played cards.

So now what?

What will you do now? You won't go to the factory.

You can't get married. Will you die a spinster in this house?

What about him? What did that brat say?

Don't you see your grandmother, who raised you since you were a baby?

Do you only care about yourself?

How can I face our ancestors?

I'm the one marrying her, not our ancestors.

What will we say to our ancestors?

That our filial son brought home an orphan wife, a middle school graduate?

Who brings a middle school graduate into a noble family as a daughter-in-law?

Why is she a middle school graduate?

What did you expect?

That the school would just give her a diploma after she eloped at night?

Just go beg there!

Go beg there so you can become their daughter-in-law.

The whole island knows about their affair.

She's lost any chance of having a proper marriage.

She can't marry Gwan-sik either.

His grandmother almost fainted.

Wow, Oh Ae-sun. Heck of a relationship you've got there.

Gambling away your whole life by eloping at night.

I've only been suspended.

Wow, congratulations.

But why was she the only one

who got expelled?

Middle school graduates can't even solder.

Damn it.

Why was only Ae-sun…

Do you really not know?

It might take two to tango,

but the boy gets called a hero

while the girl's love gets branded shameless.

Did you ruin her life without knowing better?

It was my idea.

That fool just followed along.

We should be so proud!

Remove him from the family registry!

No one's punishing my kid!
