After the Banquet (결혼식 후에)

"Countries that have traditionally used chopsticks have 7 things in common. It is our wish thatthis heritage will cross borders and be passed on..."

After the Banquet

Did I miss it?

He must be a lousy driver.

Seong-ho.

Stop, stop.

What? The groom is the parking lot guy?

I need to save money.

- Don't be so cheap on your important day. I need to save money.

Don't be so cheap on your important day.

So good to see you.

Oh, Min-hee's here.

Hi.

Seong-ho, oh my God! You haven't changed at all.

What are you talking about? I'm getting old.

You look the same. Congratulations, Ji-hong.

You guys got here early.

You got your husband's permission? I'm glad.

Seong-joo?

- You must have spent some money on your surgery. - I did it last year, it wasn't that expensive.

Come this way, he's my office staff.

Hello.

Thank you.

Let's go in.

- Sure. - This way.

You guys on in first.

Dad!

Kim Jae-won.

- Have you been good to your mom? - Yes.

What a good kid.

You can't make me babysit him on a day like this. Don't you know what day it is?

I know, I don't want to ask for this kind of favor today.

But my company wants me to go on a business trip today.

- Why don't you take him to your parents' house? - I thought about it, too.

But Jae-won wants to be with you.

Does anyone have cash?

Kyeong-ho?

- How come you came here by train? - I like to be punctual you know?

How much do you need?

Who are you?

How many times do I have to repeat this? This is Seong-joo. Han Seong-joo.

Is this enough?

Thanks.

Kyeong-ho's the same.

He managed to get a vacation? I heard TV producers are busy.

I know, right?

Oh? Hyeong-woo.

I'm glad I'm not late.

Did something happen?

Yeah, something happened on the way.

Oh, she's Seong-joo. Seong-joo.

She got some plastic surgery done.

Good to see you.

Didn't it turn out well?

I had no idea who she was.

Long time no see.

A Cathedral is the best for weddings.

Are you, are you getting married?

Why? Can't I?

Who said you can't? You can.

How did yoo-ri decide to get married?

That annoying mother-in-law lives nearby and Ji-hong had been married before.

Picky people can't get married, like someone.

Who, me?

Shh!

- Are you not getting married? - Why are you asking?

Just curious.

Marriage is annoying, I would rather live alone.

That's true.

In sickness and health in joy and sadness,

whether you're rich or poor, do you pledge to love and respect each other,

and do your best for each other for your entire life?

Yes, I do.

Bride. Do you pledge?

Yes, I do.

As Ji-hong's uncle...

Thank you.

- Thank you. Eat more. - Congratulations.

Enjoy.

The person who said "Rock is dead" was Johnny Rotten from Sex Pistols. You didn't know?

Do you want to borrow my CD?

Where in Seoul do you live?

The samples are free. Please take some.

She's indeed a business woman.

- She even works here. - I know.

Are you playing a game?

Do you want to eat something? Cake?

I'm good.

Just leave him alone, he might think that you took his dad away.

You better have a baby soon. It's hard to get pregnant after 40.

I know...

what happened to Jeong-hee? I guess she isn't coming.

I know.

Good night.

Thank you.

For the bride and groom, I'm sacrificing my precious wine.

Romane Conti from 1990.

Is it really expensive?

If you don't know, you don't deserve it.

Fine, I take it back. One glass, please?

1990, wasn't it a good year for grapes?

It must have been pricey.

What did you guys do in the 90s?

In the 90s...

I was six.

- Should we toast? - Oh yes, let's do it.

- For our reunion! - For you two's beginning!

Cheers!

Congratulations.

It's good.

By the way, is Jeong-hee not coming?

She replied that she would come.

Do you have her address?

There wasn't one.

I'm very sorry.

We're closed for a private party tonight.

I'm sorry for being late for the wedding.

I took the wrong bus.

Who?

My mom is Choi Jeong-hee.

- Did Jeong-hee get married? - No, she didn't get married.

Where's your mom?

She passed away last month...

No way.

My God... How on earth?

It was a car accident. She was in a taxi.

You came all the way here to tell us?

Yes, and...

also to find my father.

While packing up my mom's stuff after the funeral, I found a letter.

A letter mom wrote to my dad.

It seems she rewrote it many times.

What is your dad's name?

I was told he passed away a long time ago. That's what I was told.

But I heard you would all gather here today.

What?

Itmust be you. You went out with her during college.

- How old are you? - 8th grade. 15 years old.

Then she was horn... the year after our graduation.

- Blood type? - Type O. Mom was type A.

How about you?

Type A.

Then...

Considering only the blood type...

- I knew it was you. - Wait!

Could you show us the letter?

We may find out something from it.

He's right.

I want to show it only to my dad when I find him.

It's a personal letter, and I think my mom wrote it after much hesitation.

So, if possible, I want to show it only to him.

You must be tired from the long trip. So don't think and just sleep tonight.

I'm afraid I caused trouble to everyone. I shouldn't have come.

- It's because we weren't prepared. - She's right.

We are so sad about your mom, but happy to have you here.

Don't you need to call home?

I called my Grandma. I'm living with her now.

I want to sleep with daddy!

You'll be teased if you keep on acting like a baby.

I put her to bed.

What now?

I can't believe what she said. Do you think the letter actually exists?

Why would she lie to us?

What if she wants something else? Such as money.

I don't think so. Jeong-hee's parents are very rich.

If whatshe said is true, it's a matter of moral responsibility.

What are you going to do? Will you adopt her?

I bet your wife will never accept her.

Don't jump to conclusions. Jeong-hee and I broke up the year after graduation.

But you're the only one who dated her.

To he honest with you...

I...

slept with her once.

Just once.

After a concert, hoth of us got drunk. It happened on the spur of the moment.

- On the spur of the moment? - I can't believe it!

Who else slept with her?

No way!

When I was studying in London, she stopped by while she was traveling.

We drank wine and then... It was just once.

I'm so pissed off. How could she?

You really must be mad. You gave up on Seong-ho because of her.

That's not the reason I'm pissed off.

Work?

Huh? Yes. They call me all the time.

It's so annoying. They can't do anything without me.

Go back to your friends.

A little later.

By the way, you guys must be very confused.

I know. Why are men like that?

How awkward would it be to suddenly meet with your 15-year-old daughter.

I can't believe Jeong-hee is dead.

How was the wedding?

It was nice.

It was, right?

To tell you the truth, Jeong-hee told me.

About a year afterwe graduated, she told me she was pregnant.

She wouldn't get married, but would raise the child by herself.

Really?

I didn't think the father was in our group.
