The first 200 lines.
Inok.
Inok.
Get in.
Don't let yourself think. Let me look after you.
Come on.
Wait.
The school key... I left it inside...
My keys... where...?
Inok.
It's okay. It will be okay.
Dad!
Dad... Dad... oh, no... Dad...
Dad... no... Dad...
Who is it?
Songhi.
Don't answer if you don't want to.
Where there's a will, there's a way.
You will be mine, gorgeous.
Who's calling at this hour?
Hyongi.
As if I could sleep with you still out?
Oh, with Seungi.
Why?
I won't be home tonight.
Sorry. Get some sleep.
Night.
Hang on. Where is he sleeping then?
That's my phone.
It was Hyongi. He's in the country and won't be home tonight.
Won't be what?
How should I know? That's all he said.
Give me that.
What? You got the shakes?
Yeah, I've missed 4 whole meals, I'm starving.
Look at me.
I'm dyin' here.
What's he in the country for? Not a word all day.
...The number you have dialed...
Where are we?
You're awake?
Did I sleep long?
About an hour or so.
Your head still hurt?
Here, try this...
Oh, here.
Leave it.
I bought them for you.
Thanks.
Rest some more.
We've got another hour of driving.
To where?
It doesn't matter. Drive.
EEK! What...?
Mister.
Who..?
Jin Yuri...
Mister... I'm dyin'...
. . . Ugh . . .
Mister, potty...
Over there.
My bags. The trunk.
Huh?
My bags, hurry. C'mon, move it.
Whew, I thought I was gonna die.
I thought it was all over then I thought,
"No way I'm buying it in a trunk."
This is your studio?
Pretty sweet.
Perfect for the writing muse.
You'll live. Go.
Where?
Where? Wherever you were planning to go.
I got nowhere. I was following you.
What for?
Cause you're neat. To be your apprentice.
What? Better than being homeless.
There's still time to catch the last train.
Look at your watch. What last train is that?
The 12:30 train. Come on.
What now?
Oh, my head, my tummy, it's awful...
Fine. The cops it is.
You are such a twit.
Fine. I'll go tomorrow.
Gimme.
I really can't go tonight.
Think about it. Trapped in that trunk all day.
My body's a mess.
Hot. Look, I got a fever.
Hands off.
Whatever, report me if you want.
Better the lockup than another car.
Just for the night. Tomorrow...
Okay, okay.
Got any munchies? Only I'm starvin'.
Get some rest.
I'm leaving.
Go in the morning. Don't answer the door, don't open it, nothing.
Why?
Don't touch anything. Just sleep.
Got it?
Got it.
Call if you need anything.
Got it, I'm not a kid, what a nag.
No kimchi?
Nice computer.
It's got mine beat.
Back already?
I thought you'd be gone longer.
Them's the breaks.
Mom and Dad are asleep.
Hyongi?
He's not here.
No?
He's not coming home.
He's not?
You can rest here.
Thanks.
Two rooms, please.
One moment.
They're full up.
Just one room. What now?
Is it a studio?
No, a suite, kitchenette and living room.
Maybe they have two suites?
No, get the one, I'll sleep on the sofa.
I'll do that. I'll take the sofa.
Hang on.
What now?
Is it broken?
Maybe. Shall we walk?
Okay.
Broken.
Maybe it is.
You push the button?
Oh. I forgot.
I'll sleep here.
No. You take the bed.
Here it is. Please.
- Here. - Thanks.
I'm going to the store. Need anything?
We left in a hurry.
My father packed clothes.
And not much else.
I see.
Here.
Hang on.
This too. Sorry.
Necessities. I didn't know what you needed, so...
Mirim's shop doing okay?
Mom's all over that.
But Hyongi now, that's weird.
What is?
"I'm working in the country, won't be back."
Fair enough. So why is his phone off?
Switched off, battery low, who knows?
You know better.
Me, now, I yakkalot, run the batter down, whatever.
He's not a player like you.
Exactly. So what's up?
He's not me, so why did he lie to Mom and Dad?
Mind your own business.
He's our brother.
Sleep. Shut up and sleep.
Nah, it can't be.
What?
A girl.
I swear, gutter-brain.
You know him, up at dawn, facing a new world, blah-blah-blah.
He's not the kind to party all night.
It's weird. Something's up.
I hope so. He could use it.
Ya think?
Maybe I should coach him.
Get the light. Go on. Light.
Your turn.
Thank you. After you're asleep.
- Night. - Night.
That's it? No chit-chat?
- EEP. - EEP.
Sorry. I thought you were asleep.
Okay.
Here you go.
Pants...
Han Byonguk's family?
Here.
Doctor.
We'll keep him under observation, but his pulse and breathing are stable.
His blood pressure is normal.
Thank you.
Barring any complications, we'll have him transferred to a room today.
Thank you.
Of course.
Dad.
You awake? You see me?
Dad.
No crying...
Dabin?
The lady next door is watching him.
I can't reach Inok. Her phone is off.
