A THOUSAND CRANES
Any place to stay for a night in Seonhak Village?
Long ago, there was a tavern there that sold liquor and food.
Where ever you find people there will be a place to stay.
And the tavern is still on the road to the village.
Traveling around the world
I love that I am a singer
Wonderful!
But it is so hard
That's right!
To live as a singer
Seonhak Village, 1956 Singers should have
A good face first
And then a good tongue
Have a perfect voice first
And then manage it skillfully
Wonderful!
How could it be easy
To make people laugh and cry?
That's right!
To have a perfect voice
ls to distinguish the five notes
And to vary the six rules
This is Seonhak Village.
Look at that mountain.
Doesn't it look like a sitting crane spreading its wings?
That's why it's called Crane Mountain.
Cranes gather on the hundreds-year-old pine tree next to the tavern,
and on sunny days when the mountain is reflected in the port water,
they all harmoniously make a fantastic landscape.
It's fantastic.
There's no better place to study music.
You're here already!
Yoo-bong! Welcome!
Good to see you again.
Good to see you, too.
Long time no see.
They've been waiting so long for you their necks grew like cranes.
Say hello to him.
- Hello. - Hi, come over here.
Oh, you've grown up so much.
- You must be Yong-taek. - Yes.
They must be his son and daughter people talked about.

This is the most merciless way
To torture a woman
My feelings for him
ls melting my body and mind away

My new muslin undergarments
My new muslin undergarments
At the bottom of the skirt
Wrinkles as I put them on and off

Opening this gourd
I wish nothing
But a bowl of rice
Rice is all I wish for all my life
Please pour it in my bowl
Yes! You're doing good!

Eat this. It's some taffy I saved for you.
What's wrong? It's delicious.
Take it.
What's wrong?
Take it before someone sees us.
Ah, You put only shells on it.
She doesn't want it so why are you forcing it on her?
What?
You little prick.
Who asked you to butt in?
I heard Song-hwa isn't your blood sister anyway.
You little twirp.
Who do you think you are?
Die!
Park Heung-bo' is carved on it
It makes Heung-bo so happy
As he empties them, they fill up again
He empties them once more and turns around
They're full of rice and money
Three hundred and sixty five days a year
What are you doing, you little bastard!
Yong-taek, are you okay?
It's millions billions dollars
I don't know how he counted it
You little bastard.
How dare you act rude to an older man?
Did I teach you to do that?
I told you to study the rhythm!
But you don't listen to me at all!
And Song-hwa, you had to look after him instead of just watching him fight.
Still think he's not your brother?
Both of you go and apologize to him.
You must be a good person first to be a good singer and drummer.
I'd like to have food and a room for tonight.
We haven't received anyone for years.
I'll prepare one for you.
Come on in.
This village has changed a lot.
When was the dike built?
About ten years ago.
Since it stopped the river from flowing by the foot of the mountain,
this village has been destroyed.
What happened to the pine tree outside?
During the construction, the root got damaged and it grew weak.
And two years ago, a typhoon completely demolished it.
It used to be a very famous spot for the cranes.
The dry port and the dead pine tree can't attract the cranes anymore.
Well, there's still a poor man
who's caught up in the past as he still waits for those cranes.
These quilts are a little damp, but wait a minute.
I just made a fire in the furnace.
The birds far are heard vague
The birds far are heard vague
The birds near
- Go to this mountain - Don't laugh.
Cuckoo Cuckoo
Go to that mountain
Cuckoo Cuckoo
Good.
They sing hear and there
The cuckoo sings
The cuckoo sings
In the empty mountain
In the middle of the night
Here's another one!
From a crowd of girls
A beauty is coming out
A girl like the moon and the sun
ls coming out with another her age
And goes to the swing
You fools!
What are you doing there?
I told you to go and train deep in the valley.
How dare you play with that religious artifact?
Hang it where it was before!
The song has a path.
It's been made by a lot of singers,
shouting people's stories over and over again.
And you beat the drum for this path.
In other words, these drumbeats are like the eyes for the song.
You should find the path and the eyes,
study and train them with all your hearts,
and then you'll finally get a perfect song.
Are you sleeping?
Come out and have a drink with me.
We should be friendlier, considering how close we were.
I guess a lot of time has passed.
It's not only because of time.
What happened to your parents?
They've been dead for a long time.
They said that you left your family by yourself.
Why'd you run away?
Why'd you give up the drum?
It went perfect with Song-hwa's voice.
I was tired of poverty.
I was extremely sick of it.
Where's Song-hwa?
She ate some lees and fell asleep, so leave her alone.
What?
You don't train and fall asleep even in the daytime?
All this hard training will only make us starve to death.
Starving is a good way to learn the songs!
Is that all you got from singing for three days?
What did you say?
How dare you talk to your father like that?
Come here, you bastard!
- Let go of me. - You rotten bastard!
Father! Please stop!
Get down on your knees!
- Dong-ho, just do it! - Kneel!
- Father, please stop! - You disobey me, huh?
- Sit down, you bastard! - Please father, stop!
- You disgraceful bastard! - Please don't, father!
Somebody, help!
Dong-hog
Dong-ho! Dong-ho!
Let him go!
If he knows what's right, he'll come back soon.
Let's drink.
Then, did you know that Song-hwa became blind?
I knew it much later.
I had to give my sister a gift before I got discharged from the army.
But since I had no money,
I was making a ring for her with an empty cartridge.
Sir!
I'm Sang-mok from Jimok Village.
When did you get drafted?
I was sent here just a week ago.
What are you making?
It looks like a ring.
It's a present for Song-hwa.
Did you know that Song-hwa became blind?
What?
Who do we have here? Is that you, Dong-ho?
Discharged from the military?
Good afternoon.
