The first 200 lines.
Park Bok-ae.
This is only the beginning.
I made someone else's children cry tears of blood,
to wipe the snot of my own children.
That's why I can't stop here.
I will climb to the top.
Mom?
What is it, Seok-Jin?
Why are you up already?
I just woke up early.
Why, do you like this house that much?
Yes. It's weird to be by myself in such a big house.
You should get used to it soon.
By the way, did Eun-hee and Eun-ah find their dad?
- No, they didn't. - Where did they go, then?
You said they have nowhere to go.
Why would they?
Many places take in abandoned children like Eun-hee and foster them.
The facilities are very nice, too.
Don't talk about Eun-hee from now on.
They have nothing to do with us.
I will let you live without want.
I will give you everything I can.
I'll pay for all the sins.
You'll be studying at your new school today.
Here, drink this.
- Mom. - Seok-Jin.
From now on, you don't have to worry about what others say.
Don't be ashamed about being poor.
Study as much as you want.
You just have to follow behind me.
You can become anything you want.
This is where...
the top students in our country live.
Seo Seok-Jin, you better get yourself ready.
What's wrong?
It's nothing. I'll study hard.
Mom! Mom!
Mom, this place is amazing. There's hot water!
Of course, you can use as much as you want.
You don't have to worry about any landlord.
Mom! You're the best!
Move. This is my spot.
I'm sorry, but can you let my sister use that?
I'll wait for you after my sister is done.
Hurry up.
How do I turn on the hot water?
Hot water?
You must be joking.
This place only runs cold water, even in winter.
By the way, did you two come here together?
Why do parents abandon their children together?
Our dad didn't abandon us.
Our dad will come back.
When do you think that'll happen?
When his business gets better.
He basically abandoned everything because he has no money.
That's not it.
You wish. It's all the same excuse.
No one abandons their kids for that.
That's when family should stick together.
That's a nice dress.
Dad bought this for me.
It must be a nice parting gift.
Mom, what class is Eun-hee in?
Why would Eun-hee be here?
Aren't we going to the same school?
What a joke.
They can't afford to come here.
Stop your nonsense and wait here.
I'm transferring your brother to this school and you will go to kindergarten.
I want to go to school, too.
You're so stubborn.
You can only stay for an hour. I already explained to the teacher!
You know I don't like missing class. Don't decide things for me.
What are you going to do by studying?
You're going to live off your looks.
I barely made it into the top 10 for the last test. I don't want to be an idiot.
Do as you want. I'm going to sleep for an hour.
Aren't you the girl from the ice cream advertisement?
You're so pretty.
What are you doing? I said nobody can sit next to me.
He's a new transfer student.
The teacher told him to sit here.
This is so annoying.
Here are your notes.
We didn't study much for last class.
I wrote down every single word.
Didn't I do well?
By the way,
when will you let me visit the filming location?
Are you an orphan, too?
I'm not an orphan.
I heard you're from Angel Orphanage.
That means you are an orphan.
You think everyone from an orphanage is an orphan?
They're waiting for their dad to come back.
That's what they all say.
I'm glad we're in the same class.
Whatever.
We met in the morning.
I'm glad we're not strangers.
You're so simple.
You're Myoung-sun, right?
Thank you. Let's be friends.
We should study.
I don't want to hear others say we're the orphan couple.
- I'm not an orphan. - Well, I am.
I don't know what my parents look like.
Who was the lady who brought you?
- Is she your mom? - No, Ms. Park.
She's my dad's friend.
She's a really nice person.
How nice. Better than wretched parents, I suppose.
Why do you say that?
You should be more respectful.
Saying bad things like that is why...
others make fun of you for being an orphan.
I used to be like you.
We're the same age.
I'm going to buy snacks with my sister later.
Do you want to come with us?
Do you even have money?
- You have a lot. - Ms. Park gave it to us.
I'm going to pay her back when I grow old.
This is so amazing!
Eun-ah!
What's wrong?
Where are your glasses?
What happened?
She must have had a fight. First days are always like that.
- Did the other kids bother you because you're from the orphanage? - Yes.
Next time, when they bother you,
tell them you're going to bring Myoung-sun.
I'll beat them up for you.
Really? Are you strong?
Let's tape it together. I'll do it for you back at home.
We're in the same class. She's Myoung-sun.
She was mad in the morning.
She's a good friend.
Let's go.
Buy me some tteokbokki.
You said you'd buy me something earlier.
I want some, too.
I didn't eat lunch.
All right.
I should save the money, though.
Ms. Park doesn't have a lot of money, either.
I won't eat a lot.
- Hold my hand tight, okay? - Okay.
I'll do it for you.
This is frustrating. I want my glasses.
All right.
This is better.
You need new glasses.
Try asking the head mistress.
The optician comes to donate sometimes.
Donate?
We're poor children, you see.
That's why people come to help us.
They bring clothes. If you're good, the caretaker might save you something nice.
- Caretaker? - The one who gave you the blanket last night.
She's in charge of us.
An adoption?
No, I can't send Eun-ah away.
We're not going anywhere until Dad comes back.
Eun-ah is lucky.
She met such nice people as soon as she got here.
You can't do that, Head Mistress.
Ms. Park will be here soon.
Think about it carefully.
- Is it just me? - Probably.
Parents may abandon their kids in pairs,
but most people don't adopt more than one.
They only take one, the kind oldest or cute youngest.
- I don't want to go. - But it's good to go.
It'll be warmer than here.
Im Eun-ah, come here.
Hurry up and go.
What a nuisance.
I wonder...
if it's better for Eun-ah to get adopted.
Is it?
What do I tell them?
This isn't something to cry about.
We have to wait for Dad.
Dad will be coming back.
Eun-hee?
Ms. Park.
Ms. Park.
Please protect Eun-ah.
Ms. Park.
What happened to your glasses?
They broke at school.
You should be more careful.
Eun-ah.
I'm so sorry.
If I had more money,
I wouldn't leave you here.
Why can't Eun-ah stay here?
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
