Thunderbird (썬더버드)

Hey, Tae-min!

You know who you’re paying back with this car, right?

God damn it. Of course I do.

So who is it?

Jun-mo...?

Isn’t it for Jun-mo’s uncle...

Not Jun-mo. It’s...

Ugh. Never mind, punk.

Hey, isn’t this my car though? We can’t pay with this.

I won a shit ton of cash on the Wheel of Fortune.

I’ve got it right here...

Don’t bother! Go back to sleep!

God damn it...

You’d be blown away by how much I won...

JEONGSEON, GANGWON-DO

Your call cannot be connected. Leave a message after...

Hey Tae-gyun! You’ve got a customer!

Hello? You didn’t ask where we’re going.

Aren’t you going to the casino? There’s nothing else around here.

Huh. You know this area well.

Of course.

I know it very well.

Excuse me!

Audi A4. Registration, 2642.

The receipt’s in your pocket.

How much did we get?

Five grand.

Five fucking grand? Ask for more! It’s worth way more than that.

Where’d he go...

Shit...

Excuse me!

I left something in my car. Can you open up so I can grab it?

Mister, just let me get my car out.

Fuck...

Hey, Jun-mo!

The money?

I can pay you back right away!

I actually just won tons of money at the casino. It’s in my car.

But I don’t know where my car is.

Of course I’m at home!

Nice place you have here!

Your phone. Give it to me.

The money really is in my car.

Fatso, you know my car! It’s in the fucking car!

The god damn car!

Hey, where are you? When can you get me my money?

Hey. We finally sit down for a meal, and you’re glued to your phone?

Hey. Please...

Do you do that while driving too? A guy called to complain earlier!

He said their driver kept looking at his phone instead of the road!

So, which girl is this, huh?

Instead of wasting money on her, spend some time with In-sook!

Hey, get her to check the cut on your hand.

You were a nurse before. Right, In-sook?

Yes.

I knew it! She’s very experienced.

She’s worked in Seoul and abroad too.

And she’s not just an experienced worker.

She’s got lots of experience with guys too!

She’s even been married before!

Hey, she’s sitting right there.

No, it’s okay.

Am I not allowed to talk?

He’s always acting like he’s the only honest one here.

I’m a divorcee too!

You keep talking about quitting your driving job to go to Seoul.

Then you should settle down and focus on saving, no?

Anyway, what happened to your hand?

Doesn’t it get in the way of your driving?

How did you hurt it?

I just cut it on something, so...

The phone is turned off. Leave a message...

You’re not picking up? Call me when you get this.

How’s the hand?

Oh. It’s fine.

Just let me know if you need me to take a look. Really.

It’s okay.

Are you really leaving for Seoul?

Yeah, I guess. There’s no point in staying here.

Why not? Don’t they take care of you here?

Still, I should go.

You live alone, right?

That’s right.

Would you like to come to my place for dinner some time?

I’ll text you my address.

Sorry. Excuse me.

Hello?

Bro. I’m fucked.

- Why? What’s up? - This is a collect call.

It’ll cost two cents per second.

If you’d like to continue, please press any number.

If you’d like to continue, please press any number.

Where are you right now?

- Hey, Tae-min! - Oh. You came.

What are you doing here?

- I’m really fucked. - What do you mean you’re fucked?

I’ve lost my phone. And my shoes.

Hey, where’s your shirt?

My shirt? It’s drying over there.

Let’s get your shirt back on first.

Tae-min, who’s got you in this state?

Who else, besides those money collector assholes?

They came to collect money? Do you know their names?

Oh!

Shit, it’s all wet.

Hey, what are their names?

Why? Just help me find my shoe. I think it’s around here somewhere.

We’ll never find it! Just come out of there for now.

We have to find it!

We’re never going to!

Bro, I’ve got one right here.

So where’s the other?

You think it’s back at the house? You’re not even trying.

I bet you we find it!

I’m not betting! Just come out! It probably floated downstream.

Oh! Here it is!

I told you it was here! And you didn’t even help me look.

Ugh. Still not dry yet.

See? We found it all. One thing at a time.

Found the shoes, found the phone.

Just need to find the car now.

Fine, but let’s head home for now.

What time is it?

I don’t know. It’s probably not seven yet.

We can’t go home.

- Why not? - Gotta pay Jun-mo back tonight.

By the way, what’s that smell?

What do you mean smell? I play soccer in that.

Then you wear this and I’ll wear what you have on!

You can pretend you’re going to go play soccer.

What are you gonna do now?

I have to find my car. Shit.

- What kind of car is it? - You’ve never seen my car?

I might have if you ever picked up my calls, punk.

You’ll recognize it. It’s an Audi A4 with a thunderbird sticker.

Where’d you get the money for that?

You don’t buy cars with money. You buy cars with guts!

Also, that's the kind of ride that gets you paid.

I hit it big again. But the money’s in the car.

If I lose that, I’m really fucked.

You sure your car is here?

What? Is that it?

How would I know if it’s here? My car was pawned!

You asked for my help! What am I doing here then!

Why would they pawn your car?

They took it, so they must have pawned it.

Then can’t we just go to the pawnshop?

I don’t have the cash to buy it back! The money’s in the car!

For someone who studied in Seoul, you’re pretty clueless.

Hey!

Tae-min!

Tae-min.

Hey.

Where’d he go?

Damn it. Then I’ll just... Why didn't I think of this earlier.

What?

It's my car anyway. I just need to get the key back.

Do you have any money?

How much do you need?

Five grand?

Damn it, that car is worth way more.

Why would I have that kind of money?

Can’t you borrow it from someone?

You’ve got a lot of friends.

Friends? Yeah, I’ve got friends. Lots of friends!

Let’s take your car, bro.

Hey, then what about my money? When are you gonna pay me back?

As soon as we find the car! Let’s go!

You know Ki-cheol’s auto shop? Let’s head there.

Ki-cheol?

Want me to come in?

You grab the clothes from the trunk.

- Hey, Tae-min. - Yeah?

I’m sorry, this is all I can give you.

I’d give you more if I had it, but it’s been crazy with the kid.

Oh, man!

Thank you! For real, thank you. I’ll pay you back when I get my car.

No rush. It’s the least I can do.

Right, Tae-gyun?

I heard you were back from Seoul.

You could’ve called me. Why didn't you give me a call?

Yeah, but I’ll be heading back. How have you been?

“How have you been?”

Son of a bitch. You talk just the same!

I heard you're a taxi driver now?

You drive cars, and I fix them. Similar lines of work, huh?

Tae-min, come over here.

You should know that car is worth more than five grand.

Right?

I put a lot of effort into tuning that car up!

Right! Those fuckers have no idea!

Like, say it’s worth eight grand. You only need to pay off two grand.

Why? Because you should be getting three grand back!

Oh, you’re right! Now I think of it... Yeah!

I can’t go with you, but I'll write you a valuation.

What did you say this place was called?

- Century Pawnshop! - Century Pawnshop, right.

Your valuation will really add some weight!

Of course!
