NOTES FROM THE LAST ROW

00:55.118 --> 00:57.162
- Lee Min-yeong.
- Here.

00:58.121 --> 00:59.622
Jang Han-seul.

01:00.790 --> 01:01.749
Jang Han-seul?

01:02.625 --> 01:03.918
Jang Han-seul?

01:07.714 --> 01:09.549
- Heo Do-jun.
- Here.

01:13.803 --> 01:16.431
I finished marking the assignments
you submitted last week.

01:16.514 --> 01:19.559
They're right over there.
You can come and get them after class.

01:19.642 --> 01:20.602
Yes, Professor.

01:21.769 --> 01:23.062
Did you take notes?

01:24.480 --> 01:27.233
- Is it okay if I look at them?
- Sure. I'll send them to you.

01:27.317 --> 01:30.486
Hey, did you understand
what he was talking about today? I've…

01:32.572 --> 01:33.698
Professor.

01:33.781 --> 01:34.991
Professor!

01:37.744 --> 01:39.412
Um, what's…

01:40.455 --> 01:41.789
I mean, "trash"?

01:41.873 --> 01:43.958
Are you calling my paper trash?

01:44.542 --> 01:45.877
Don't you know?

01:46.502 --> 01:48.421
I'm an influencer.

01:49.255 --> 01:51.841
Do you have any idea what that is?

01:52.800 --> 01:56.512
It means I have over 30,000 subscribers
on my blog alone.

01:56.596 --> 01:58.806
Do you know how many likes
I get every day?

01:58.890 --> 01:59.891
Really?

02:00.600 --> 02:02.185
That's fascinating.

02:02.685 --> 02:04.479
What's it called? "The Trash Can"?

02:04.562 --> 02:06.856
Although, if it's full
of writing like this,

02:06.940 --> 02:09.400
I think you should call it
"The Dump," instead.

02:11.653 --> 02:14.405
Ah… 12 paragraphs.

02:14.906 --> 02:17.533
167 sentences.

02:17.617 --> 02:21.079
Maybe you think this is a piece of writing
because you filled some pages with words.

02:21.162 --> 02:24.791
Unfortunately, none of the sentences
in here mean anything at all.

02:25.291 --> 02:28.670
That's because nothing in here
is personal and heartfelt.

02:29.462 --> 02:32.507
The whole thing's a series
of cheap clichés and sentimentality,

02:32.590 --> 02:35.927
not to mention what you copied
from other people's work.

02:36.719 --> 02:38.554
What term should I use
for this stream of words

02:38.638 --> 02:42.016
you've vomited out
without even understanding it yourself?

02:42.517 --> 02:45.770
So if you think there's a better word
for this than "trash," tell me.

02:48.314 --> 02:50.900
I'd be happy to use that word instead.

02:56.906 --> 02:58.866
Can I go now?

03:03.371 --> 03:05.790
That crazy bastard. Ignore him.

03:05.873 --> 03:07.792
Want me to kill him for you?

03:07.875 --> 03:09.252
Ugh! He's the worst.

03:09.335 --> 03:10.962
If this weren't a required course…

03:11.963 --> 03:12.880
…I'd drop it.

03:12.964 --> 03:15.341
I heard Heo Mun-oh does that
because he can't write.

03:15.425 --> 03:16.384
Huh?

03:17.260 --> 03:19.762
<i>Some seniors told me all about it.</i>

03:20.263 --> 03:24.392
<i>He's only ever written one novel,</i>
<i>and that was, like, 20 years ago.</i>

03:24.892 --> 03:28.062
<i>And ever since, he hasn't been able</i>
<i>to write anything else.</i>

03:28.563 --> 03:31.607
<i>He wants to, but he can't,</i>
<i>no matter how hard he fucking tries.</i>

03:31.691 --> 03:35.695
<i>So he takes all his frustration</i>
<i>and self-loathing out on his students.</i>

03:36.404 --> 03:37.572
<i>What a loser.</i>

03:38.072 --> 03:39.615
RESEARCH IN PROGRESS
DO NOT DISTURB

03:40.783 --> 03:42.452
Oh, Mun-oh, there you are.

03:42.535 --> 03:45.121
Your door was open, so…

03:48.416 --> 03:51.044
Hello again, Mr. Park. Back so soon?

03:51.127 --> 03:53.004
Oh, yeah, I guess so.

03:53.087 --> 03:54.630
Well, I missed you, Mun-oh.

03:54.714 --> 03:57.759
Hey, not again. I told you
I'd rather we keep it professional.

03:57.842 --> 03:59.052
Yes, Mr. Heo.

04:00.303 --> 04:02.347
Ah, that just sounds so formal.

04:03.765 --> 04:05.516
So you got home all right yesterday?

04:05.600 --> 04:08.478
- Coffee?
- Oh, no, thanks. I just had one.

04:09.270 --> 04:11.439
Hey, what's this? Oh, my goodness!

04:11.522 --> 04:13.024
You're so stubborn, Mun-oh.

04:13.107 --> 04:15.485
You're still taking attendance
on paper, huh?

04:15.568 --> 04:18.571
Look, I'll install the program for you.

04:18.654 --> 04:21.366
- It's way more convenient.
- Oh, no, thank you.

04:21.449 --> 04:23.409
I like my way just fine.

04:23.951 --> 04:25.536
So what brings you here?

04:25.620 --> 04:27.497
You wouldn't come
from the College of Engineering

04:27.580 --> 04:28.414
without a reason.

04:28.498 --> 04:30.124
Oh, uh…

04:30.208 --> 04:32.418
I actually wanted
to bring this up yesterday but forgot.

04:32.502 --> 04:34.253
- Mm-hmm.
- Listen, Mun-oh.

04:34.754 --> 04:38.049
I understand you know
Kim Su-hun, the author.

04:41.719 --> 04:43.971
Who? Uh, Kim Su-hun?

04:44.055 --> 04:45.014
Yeah, yeah.

04:45.556 --> 04:47.183
You went to university together.

04:47.266 --> 04:50.728
Man, I had no idea
you were so well-connected, Mun-oh.

04:50.812 --> 04:52.271
I wish I'd known it earlier.

04:52.355 --> 04:54.982
I would have asked for your help
getting him here years ago.

04:55.066 --> 04:56.359
What do you mean?

04:56.442 --> 04:58.986
Uh… I think I told you about this.

04:59.070 --> 05:00.113
Um…

05:00.196 --> 05:04.617
I organize monthly cultural events
for the College of Engineering. Hmm?

05:04.700 --> 05:07.662
Our students don't get out much,
so I volunteered to--

05:07.745 --> 05:08.871
Just get to the point.

05:08.955 --> 05:11.374
Ah, yes! To the point.

05:11.457 --> 05:15.378
The point is, we hope that
Kim Su-hun will be our guest next month.

05:15.461 --> 05:19.715
Uh, to give a lecture on his new novel,
followed by a conversation.

05:19.799 --> 05:23.428
And I hope you will host
that conversation.

05:26.764 --> 05:27.640
Hmm?

05:30.852 --> 05:32.562
- Host the conversation?
- Yes.

05:33.062 --> 05:35.648
It was Mr. Kim who first suggested it.

05:40.445 --> 05:42.363
Kim Su-hun suggested it?

05:42.947 --> 05:45.199
- Yeah.
- And what did he say?

05:45.283 --> 05:48.161
Well, he said he thought
it would be more comfortable and fun

05:48.244 --> 05:49.787
if a friend hosted it.

05:49.871 --> 05:51.539
He said he'd come if you did it.

05:57.712 --> 05:59.255
Kim Su-hun said that?

06:00.381 --> 06:01.299
Yeah.

06:07.722 --> 06:09.223
Careful, Mr. Gu. It's slippery.

06:09.307 --> 06:12.268
- Gonna write a good article?
- Oh, yeah, absolutely.

06:12.351 --> 06:14.687
Just make sure you're ready
to print more copies of the book.

06:14.770 --> 06:16.439
Su-hun.

06:16.522 --> 06:17.398
Oh.

06:18.900 --> 06:21.819
- It's just up here.
- Oh, Mun-oh. Just a second.

06:22.320 --> 06:24.030
- Uh, Mr. Gu?
- Hmm?

06:24.113 --> 06:26.532
Please, go on ahead. I'll be right there.

06:26.616 --> 06:27.492
Okay, sure.

06:27.575 --> 06:30.244
Don't take too long.
The real interview starts now, you know.

06:30.328 --> 06:32.538
- Right.
- We'll be at the pork restaurant.

06:32.622 --> 06:34.040
- See you there.
- See you there.

06:36.501 --> 06:39.086
I should have given you a call earlier.

06:39.170 --> 06:40.546
I'm sorry about that.

06:40.630 --> 06:41.547
Yeah.

06:41.631 --> 06:44.258
Weren't we supposed
to have dinner together tonight?

06:44.342 --> 06:46.636
Um, that's what I thought, anyway.

06:46.719 --> 06:48.930
Yeah, for sure. That was the plan.

06:49.514 --> 06:51.057
We need to talk, actually.

06:51.140 --> 06:54.185
Then, this afternoon,
Mr. Gu came to see us unexpectedly.

06:54.685 --> 06:55.770
You know who he is, right?

06:55.853 --> 06:58.856
Yeah, sure. Of course, I do.
Who doesn't know Gu Yeong-ho?

06:58.940 --> 07:01.108
I've never seen him in person
before, though.

07:02.818 --> 07:03.694
Listen,

07:04.779 --> 07:06.155
you wanted to talk?

07:06.656 --> 07:07.949
What about?

07:09.825 --> 07:13.120
If it's the favor I asked you,

07:13.829 --> 07:14.664
did you decide?

07:16.791 --> 07:17.750
Yeah.

07:20.586 --> 07:23.172
Sorry. I can't write you a testimonial.

07:23.256 --> 07:26.425
I feel like I've been writing
too many testimonials lately.

07:28.886 --> 07:31.013
Oh, too… too many?

07:32.557 --> 07:33.641
But you…

07:34.517 --> 07:35.476
you did read it?

07:35.560 --> 07:36.978
Of course, I did.

07:38.104 --> 07:39.313
Let's talk later.

07:39.814 --> 07:41.899
- Soon though, all right?
- Wait, Su-hun.

07:42.567 --> 07:45.361
Tell me. What is it? What did you think?

07:45.861 --> 07:47.363
Tell me now, please.

08:49.842 --> 08:53.888
I had trouble understanding
what the writer was attempting to say.

08:55.056 --> 08:56.390
Honestly, I thought,

08:57.183 --> 08:59.935
why would you bother writing
without saying anything?

09:01.812 --> 09:03.939
There's nothing wrong with that, you know?

09:05.566 --> 09:07.735
But most of all, you should

09:08.611 --> 09:10.655
revisit how to write good sentences.

09:25.503 --> 09:27.838
<i>That's why</i>
<i>the first sentence is so important.</i>

09:31.926 --> 09:36.055
It's because once the author
writes the first sentence,

09:36.138 --> 09:38.849
they've taken their first step
into the story.

09:41.977 --> 09:43.854
For example, listen to this.

09:45.606 --> 09:47.775
"How glad I am that I am gone."

09:48.275 --> 09:50.695
"Dear friend, what a thing
is the human heart."

09:52.738 --> 09:53.698
"To leave you,

09:55.533 --> 09:58.119
whom I love so dearly, and yet feel glad."

09:59.161 --> 10:01.372
Can anyone tell me
which novel that's from?

10:05.626 --> 10:06.669
You don't know?

10:12.216 --> 10:14.510
A classic among classics.

10:14.593 --> 10:16.637
Goethe's--

10:19.682 --> 10:20.683
Who was that?

10:22.810 --> 10:23.978
Whose phone was that?

10:27.398 --> 10:28.441
I'm sorry.

10:34.655 --> 10:39.326
The first sentence
of <i>The Sorrows of Young Werther </i>by Goethe.

10:40.161 --> 10:43.247
As I'm sure you all know,

10:43.330 --> 10:46.250
it's written in the form of letters
that Werther sends to his friend Albert.

10:46.333 --> 10:48.085
Do you think my class is a joke?

10:52.006 --> 10:54.133
Do you think I'm a joke? Huh?

10:56.635 --> 10:57.720
Stand up.

10:58.637 --> 10:59.847
Right now.

11:01.682 --> 11:02.850
You're not going to?

11:04.101 --> 11:05.269
Then get out!

11:07.897 --> 11:09.023
Go on, get outta here!

11:09.106 --> 11:11.942
It's not Albert. It's Wilhelm.

11:16.238 --> 11:17.406
What did you say?

11:18.365 --> 11:20.367
Werther's friend is named Wilhelm.

11:21.786 --> 11:26.373
Albert is the… fiancé of Lotte,
the woman Werther loves.

11:30.920 --> 11:32.797
Albert is Werther's rival.

11:33.672 --> 11:36.842
The one he's jealous of but also idolizes.

11:37.510 --> 11:39.094
Maybe

11:40.638 --> 11:43.516
in the sense
that all of those things are a part of it…

11:45.226 --> 11:47.353
…you could say they're actually friends.

11:48.813 --> 11:50.397
The object of his envy

11:52.024 --> 11:53.400
is also his friend.

11:53.484 --> 11:55.486
Ooh…

11:58.989 --> 12:02.368
Professor… I think time's up now.

12:08.040 --> 12:09.333
That's it for today.

12:14.880 --> 12:16.173
Hey, get up.

12:38.112 --> 12:40.030
Hey, thanks!

12:40.114 --> 12:42.241
If it weren't for you, I'd be in trouble.

12:42.992 --> 12:45.202
So how about I take you out for lunch?

12:45.703 --> 12:49.123
Whatever you want.
Anything. Fried chicken, pizza…

12:49.707 --> 12:53.335
<i>But if jealousy came before affection,</i>

12:53.961 --> 12:57.006
<i>could that really be called a friendship?</i>

13:00.634 --> 13:04.054
<i>I first met Se-yun in the winter</i>
<i>before we started school.</i>

13:04.138 --> 13:06.599
<i>It was… a coincidence.</i>

13:14.106 --> 13:16.317
Hey, what are you doing? Clear the table.

13:17.943 --> 13:19.361
Hey, is this, uh…

13:32.541 --> 13:33.918
Are you looking for this?

13:34.418 --> 13:36.295
Hey, thank you. Thanks a lot.

13:37.838 --> 13:39.298
It's okay! I found it!

13:57.733 --> 13:59.818
Okay, great. Thanks so much.

13:59.902 --> 14:00.778
Thanks.

14:01.904 --> 14:05.699
<i>Our meeting was a coincidence,</i>
<i>but becoming friends</i>

14:07.076 --> 14:08.035
<i>wasn't.</i>

14:09.036 --> 14:10.287
<i>It was my plan.</i>

CODING CLUB

14:18.545 --> 14:19.421
Oh.

14:19.505 --> 14:20.923
You're in YDOC too?

14:21.590 --> 14:22.758
I've got the same bag.

14:25.844 --> 14:28.847
I'm Kim Se-yun. I just started
in Library Science. And you?

14:29.348 --> 14:30.516
Hi. I'm Lee Kang.

14:30.599 --> 14:32.601
- Electronic Engineering.
- Whoa!

14:33.102 --> 14:34.895
You're in engineering
<i>and </i>taking this class?

14:34.979 --> 14:37.106
Well, actually, it is a general course.

14:40.901 --> 14:42.653
Hey, do you know how to code already?

14:43.153 --> 14:46.031
'Cause I don't know anything yet.
I just joined because I like gaming.

14:50.077 --> 14:51.996
Coding isn't difficult.

14:52.496 --> 14:53.372
It's easy.

14:54.373 --> 14:55.416
Really?

14:58.460 --> 15:00.421
Wow! How do you do this?

15:01.171 --> 15:02.172
Can you show me how?

15:02.881 --> 15:03.799
Not right now.

15:04.299 --> 15:05.676
I have to go to work soon.

15:07.594 --> 15:09.638
Tomorrow? At my house?

15:10.514 --> 15:12.266
<i>My plan was a success.</i>

15:12.766 --> 15:14.059
- Your house?
- Mm-hmm.

15:14.143 --> 15:16.729
<i>- I finally became friends with Se-yun.</i>
- What's good for you?

15:16.812 --> 15:19.189
<i>Friends who could go</i>
<i>to each other's houses.</i>

15:19.273 --> 15:20.983
TO BE CONTINUED..

16:10.240 --> 16:12.159
<i>Can you be nostalgic</i>

16:12.951 --> 16:14.912
<i>over a place you've never been?</i>

16:17.706 --> 16:19.917
<i>Can you be filled with longing</i>

16:20.626 --> 16:22.836
<i>for a person you've never met?</i>

16:30.427 --> 16:34.765
<i>It was my first time at Se-yun's house,</i>
<i>but it felt familiar.</i>

16:34.848 --> 16:37.518
<i>It looked exactly like it did</i>
<i>in the photos.</i>

16:39.603 --> 16:41.105
Come on in. This way.

16:46.068 --> 16:46.902
Mom.

16:49.655 --> 16:52.449
- Ah, you're home.
- This is my friend.

16:52.533 --> 16:55.119
He's from the coding club.

16:55.202 --> 16:57.246
I told you he was coming over.

16:58.455 --> 17:00.124
Oh yeah. That's right.

17:01.125 --> 17:02.459
Hi. I'm Lee Kang.

17:02.960 --> 17:04.503
It's nice to meet you.

17:05.796 --> 17:08.006
<i>No, it was different from the photos.</i>

17:08.090 --> 17:11.552
<i>Everything was even more beautiful</i>
<i>than I'd expected. The house…</i>

17:11.635 --> 17:13.637
You're so good at this. Seriously.

17:13.720 --> 17:14.930
<i>…and the people.</i>

17:15.013 --> 17:17.766
- Good job, huh?
- Yes, good job.

17:18.350 --> 17:19.935
Of course.

17:54.636 --> 17:56.597
"To be continued."

17:56.680 --> 17:59.600
Oh my. What is this? Who wrote it?

17:59.683 --> 18:00.934
Just, you know…

18:02.019 --> 18:03.228
What do you think?

18:04.313 --> 18:05.564
Not sure.

18:07.232 --> 18:10.152
So he wanted to be friends
with this other boy.

18:11.069 --> 18:12.446
No, that's not it.

18:13.197 --> 18:14.448
He acted like they were friends,

18:14.531 --> 18:16.491
because he wanted
to go to his house, right?

18:16.575 --> 18:19.286
Oh. I'm confused. What does he want?

18:19.369 --> 18:20.913
Why would he write this?

18:20.996 --> 18:22.664
Oh, for God's sake.

18:22.748 --> 18:25.834
I wanted an expert opinion
from you, not this.

18:25.918 --> 18:27.878
You're asking the same questions I did.

18:28.378 --> 18:31.298
What do you think the psychology
of this is, if you were to guess?

18:31.798 --> 18:34.426
I can't tell just based on this.

18:37.054 --> 18:39.973
But it doesn't seem like
it's anything too complex.

18:40.057 --> 18:41.767
He's envious.

18:42.684 --> 18:44.770
He must have seen something
he desperately wanted

18:44.853 --> 18:46.021
in that friend of his.

18:46.104 --> 18:48.857
And since he can't do anything
about that feeling,

18:48.941 --> 18:50.776
he's letting it out through writing.

18:53.737 --> 18:55.239
While it's a little odd,

18:55.739 --> 18:58.533
putting these feelings into writing
is a good thing.

18:59.910 --> 19:00.911
Hmm.

19:01.828 --> 19:03.580
I'm curious what happens next, though.

19:04.164 --> 19:05.707
He's a very good writer.

19:07.167 --> 19:10.545
I think… he's the best
writing student you've had.

19:13.423 --> 19:14.883
Yes, by far.

19:15.884 --> 19:17.928
Well? Are you gonna mentor him,
do you think?

19:18.428 --> 19:19.763
Don't be ridiculous.

19:20.264 --> 19:21.348
All right.

19:21.848 --> 19:23.100
Hey, by the way…

19:26.895 --> 19:29.231
when was the last time you came in here?

19:30.065 --> 19:31.066
Do you know?

19:34.194 --> 19:35.112
Good night.

20:00.304 --> 20:02.389
<i>I'm curious what happens next, though.</i>

20:03.598 --> 20:06.977
<i>I think… he's the best</i>
<i>writing student you've had.</i>

20:07.561 --> 20:09.938
<i>Well, are you gonna mentor him,</i>
<i>do you think?</i>

20:34.755 --> 20:36.590
You asked me to stay behind?

20:37.966 --> 20:41.762
Is there something
you wanted to… say to me?

20:44.139 --> 20:46.808
You humiliated me
in front of the other students.

20:47.559 --> 20:48.769
Did you get a kick out of that?

20:50.479 --> 20:51.688
Oh.

21:05.827 --> 21:07.496
Is that Kim Se-yun?

21:10.082 --> 21:11.166
Yeah.

21:11.833 --> 21:14.336
Does he know what you're writing about?

21:14.836 --> 21:16.004
Has he read it?

21:17.255 --> 21:18.131
No.

21:18.965 --> 21:21.259
You're the only one who reads them, right?

21:22.177 --> 21:23.720
That's what you said the first class.

21:28.767 --> 21:29.810
Have a seat.

21:48.412 --> 21:49.371
Now.

21:51.415 --> 21:53.250
What do you want to write about?

21:54.042 --> 21:55.293
What are you trying to say?

21:56.420 --> 21:57.254
I don't know.

21:57.754 --> 22:00.632
You said to just write
whatever we felt like.

22:01.133 --> 22:02.092
So that's what I did.

22:02.175 --> 22:04.261
No, no.

22:06.721 --> 22:09.391
You understand what I'm asking you.

22:10.934 --> 22:12.269
You don't have to pretend.

22:22.195 --> 22:23.989
Uh, you…

22:27.075 --> 22:28.618
envy him, don't you?

22:30.162 --> 22:31.788
You wish you could be him.

22:33.623 --> 22:35.667
That's why you wrote this, isn't it?

22:40.797 --> 22:41.882
You know what?

22:43.592 --> 22:47.888
There's nothing about you
in Kim Se-yun's assignment.

22:48.722 --> 22:53.059
It seems he doesn't care about you,
whether you envy him or not.

22:54.060 --> 22:56.062
You're the only one who's suffering.

23:00.275 --> 23:01.818
Do you know, Professor?

23:03.778 --> 23:05.113
Have you felt it?

23:13.497 --> 23:14.372
Oh.

23:15.248 --> 23:19.878
So what you're saying is
that I should write about something else?

23:20.378 --> 23:22.672
There's nothing else I wanna write about.

23:22.756 --> 23:25.175
No, no, write! Write about this.

23:25.258 --> 23:26.843
I wanted to say

23:27.385 --> 23:28.428
you should keep writing.

23:28.512 --> 23:30.263
Even if it's hard, write through it.

23:31.640 --> 23:34.392
It's so important to have something
you wanna write about.

23:37.854 --> 23:38.939
You're talented.

23:43.568 --> 23:44.819
If you want,

23:45.779 --> 23:48.573
I'm willing to offer you
individual lessons once a week.

23:49.282 --> 23:51.952
- Individual?
- Mm-hmm. That's right.

23:54.246 --> 23:57.791
I wanna offer you extra lessons,
more of my time. What? Don't you get it?

23:57.874 --> 23:59.209
No, I do. It's just…

24:00.961 --> 24:02.629
I have to work as well.

24:05.131 --> 24:07.008
I can't lose hours for extra lessons.

24:16.476 --> 24:17.602
Okay, then.

24:18.812 --> 24:22.691
What if I pay you enough to make up
for any lost hours you may miss?

24:30.448 --> 24:31.658
Why?

24:34.286 --> 24:35.161
Pay me for what?

24:39.207 --> 24:41.376
Christ. No, that's crazy.

24:50.302 --> 24:51.136
Lee Kang.

24:54.347 --> 24:57.726
Now, I'm serious. Stop being silly,
and listen to me carefully.

25:00.020 --> 25:02.272
<i>You'll never be Kim Se-yun,</i>

25:02.772 --> 25:06.568
<i>but you can write as much as you want</i>
<i>about your desire to become him.</i>

25:07.944 --> 25:09.863
<i>If you can digest that feeling,</i>

25:10.655 --> 25:12.115
<i>that's what writing is.</i>

25:12.198 --> 25:14.242
<i>That's the power of literature.</i>

25:16.620 --> 25:22.208
<i>I want to help you, so that what you write</i>
<i>doesn't end up just marks on a page,</i>

25:22.876 --> 25:24.544
<i>but becomes a story.</i>

25:26.880 --> 25:30.175
Because… talent is a rare thing.

25:30.967 --> 25:32.636
And I'd like to teach you.

25:33.386 --> 25:34.471
ALL RIGHT, PROFESSOR

25:34.554 --> 25:38.266
<i>All right, Professor.</i>
<i>I'll quit one of my part-time jobs.</i>

25:47.025 --> 25:50.654
ALL RIGHT, TEACHER
I'LL QUIT ONE OF MY PART-TIME JOBS

26:09.756 --> 26:10.924
Hmm.

26:14.803 --> 26:15.845
Hmm.

26:32.153 --> 26:33.947
What is it?

26:34.572 --> 26:36.116
I just find it funny.

26:36.908 --> 26:40.161
Individual lessons?
I didn't think you'd actually do it.

26:41.788 --> 26:44.624
Anyway, you look happier
than I've seen you in a while.

26:44.708 --> 26:48.044
I thought you had an appointment.
I don't want you to be late.

26:48.128 --> 26:49.671
Better get going, hmm?

26:51.214 --> 26:54.300
I'm not sure I feel comfortable
about you doing the lessons here.

26:54.384 --> 26:57.512
Why at home?
Why not at school or a coffee shop?

26:58.304 --> 27:02.767
Because then people will see us.
I'd rather give it a few weeks first.

27:04.436 --> 27:08.273
And when you see Park and Seong-hui,
please, you can't tell them either, okay?

27:08.773 --> 27:10.233
- Say I had plans.
- Jeez. All right.

27:10.316 --> 27:13.236
Why do you always wanna
keep everything such a secret?

27:15.655 --> 27:17.449
See you later. Have a good lesson.

27:17.532 --> 27:18.533
Mm-hmm.

28:17.467 --> 28:18.384
Hey.

28:19.928 --> 28:20.762
Come in.

28:33.691 --> 28:34.609
Through here.

28:42.534 --> 28:43.660
What are you doing?

28:55.755 --> 28:58.424
Why do you look so down?
You came here to study.

28:58.925 --> 29:00.927
You haven't even said hello.

29:02.846 --> 29:04.138
I said hi.

29:05.014 --> 29:06.766
You didn't. Sit.

29:09.310 --> 29:10.603
Actually…

29:13.273 --> 29:16.484
Something happened,
and I… was gonna call and tell you,

29:16.985 --> 29:19.821
but I thought it would be better
to wait until I saw you.

29:21.698 --> 29:22.866
Mm, okay. Go ahead.

29:25.410 --> 29:26.953
I won't be able to do these lessons.

29:29.080 --> 29:30.957
So, um…

29:31.040 --> 29:32.709
I went over to Se-yun's house yesterday,

29:32.792 --> 29:35.295
and I… might not be able
to go back there again.

29:35.378 --> 29:37.380
Which would mean I can't write anymore,

29:37.881 --> 29:40.675
and, um, there'd be no point
in having these lessons.

29:41.217 --> 29:42.635
Okay.

29:43.136 --> 29:45.305
Wha… what exactly happened?

29:45.388 --> 29:46.723
Wha… what's wrong?

29:52.937 --> 29:55.899
You know the computer coding club
Se-yun and I are in together?

29:55.982 --> 29:56.816
Yeah.

29:57.442 --> 30:00.069
Well, it's hosting a competition
in about two weeks.

30:00.570 --> 30:03.197
It's essentially the first round
for the national level.

30:03.698 --> 30:04.741
Uh…

30:06.492 --> 30:09.120
Se-yun and I decided
to pair up and enter it.

30:09.621 --> 30:12.790
So I went over to his house
to practice together, and then…

30:13.374 --> 30:14.250
And then?

30:15.585 --> 30:17.337
- Keep trying up to here.
- Okay.

30:18.588 --> 30:20.006
I gotta go take a piss, okay?

30:20.089 --> 30:21.090
Sure, yeah.

30:25.470 --> 30:26.387
Bracket…

30:57.460 --> 30:59.796
<i>I was only going to use the bathroom,</i>

30:59.879 --> 31:01.839
<i>but then I got curious.</i>

31:21.150 --> 31:24.404
<i>I know… I shouldn't have done it.</i>

32:54.368 --> 32:55.745
I'm sorry.

32:56.579 --> 32:58.414
I couldn't find the bathroom, so…

32:59.499 --> 33:00.416
Oh.

33:00.500 --> 33:03.753
Well, I thought that you were my Yun.

33:03.836 --> 33:05.671
There's actually a bathroom upstairs.

33:05.755 --> 33:08.341
And one by the front entrance for guests.

33:09.467 --> 33:11.302
Thanks for letting me know.

33:12.136 --> 33:13.721
I won't get lost again.

33:19.185 --> 33:20.853
<i>Even though I was out of line,</i>

33:20.937 --> 33:22.980
<i>Se-yun's mom was kind to me.</i>

33:23.064 --> 33:25.775
<i>She didn't get mad or even seem upset.</i>

33:26.275 --> 33:28.694
<i>She didn't say anything</i>
<i>during dinner either.</i>

33:28.778 --> 33:30.613
- It's hot.
- Mm-hmm.

33:34.117 --> 33:35.827
Are you coming? What are you doing?

33:36.327 --> 33:37.995
Everybody's waiting for you.

33:38.579 --> 33:40.373
Yeah, be right there.

33:48.214 --> 33:49.924
Mm… the new friend.

33:50.007 --> 33:52.927
I'm Se-yun's dad.
Your name is Lee Kang, right?

33:54.137 --> 33:55.972
- Hello.
- Have a seat.

33:59.934 --> 34:02.478
I hear you're good with computers.

34:02.979 --> 34:05.273
You know, you're almost all
he talks about these days.

34:06.399 --> 34:08.568
Seems like that.

34:08.651 --> 34:10.820
He's had so many friends,
but he talks about you a lot.

34:10.903 --> 34:12.780
Oh, come on, Mom, not that much.

34:12.864 --> 34:16.659
But the only reason I'm in the competition
is 'cause Kang here is helping me out.

34:16.742 --> 34:17.577
Hmm.

34:17.660 --> 34:20.079
He even impresses the seniors
with his skills.

34:20.997 --> 34:24.041
- Ah, you're exaggerating.
- Exaggerating?

34:24.625 --> 34:26.794
Anyway, take good care of Se-yun.

34:27.295 --> 34:30.506
He dreams of becoming a programmer now.

34:30.590 --> 34:33.926
Had we known, we would've
sent him to engineering school, like you.

34:34.010 --> 34:36.179
Okay, let's eat.

34:36.262 --> 34:37.180
Mm…

34:37.763 --> 34:39.765
- Mm-hmm!
- We'll say grace first.

34:39.849 --> 34:43.060
In the name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

34:43.144 --> 34:44.729
Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy gifts,

34:44.812 --> 34:48.649
which we are about to receive
from Thy bounty, through Christ our Lord…

34:48.733 --> 34:52.862
<i>But by the time I left that night,</i>
<i>I found out how she really felt about me.</i>

34:53.446 --> 34:57.533
I don't know.
He seems a bit sneaky or something.

34:58.242 --> 35:00.286
People have a certain vibe to them.

35:01.412 --> 35:03.247
I felt it the first time I met him.

35:03.331 --> 35:05.041
I wish he'd stop coming over.

35:05.958 --> 35:07.460
Mm-hmm? What is it?

35:09.921 --> 35:11.881
What's got you all worked up now?

35:13.966 --> 35:16.719
We shouldn't talk like this
about a friend of Se-yun's.

35:17.220 --> 35:19.430
All we can do is watch over him.

35:20.640 --> 35:23.976
Something happened today.
He was in our bedroom.

35:25.770 --> 35:26.729
I just…

35:26.812 --> 35:27.980
I'm just saying,

35:28.064 --> 35:32.652
I'd rather our Yun be friends
with someone… more cheerful and friendly.

35:32.735 --> 35:34.654
Oh, jeez.

35:35.571 --> 35:38.199
I thought he was fine.
He looks like a smart kid.

35:39.033 --> 35:40.326
How about this?

35:40.409 --> 35:43.037
We leave it alone
until after the competition.

35:43.704 --> 35:45.873
Who knows? They might even win an award.

35:46.666 --> 35:49.126
Winning an award at a competition
like that will be good for him

35:49.210 --> 35:51.212
when he starts applying for jobs.

35:51.295 --> 35:53.631
That's been on my mind too.

35:54.632 --> 35:55.466
All right.

35:56.300 --> 35:58.302
If it means he'll be better off,

35:59.053 --> 36:00.721
let's wait and see what happens.

36:00.805 --> 36:01.639
Yeah.

36:13.776 --> 36:15.861
Well, what'd you do that for, huh?

36:15.945 --> 36:17.822
I know I shouldn't have done it.

36:19.824 --> 36:21.033
All right.

36:21.534 --> 36:23.202
So what this means is

36:24.245 --> 36:26.038
you have to win in the competition,

36:26.122 --> 36:29.542
or whatever you call it,
so they'll keep letting you go over there?

36:29.625 --> 36:30.960
Hmm? Is that it?

36:31.043 --> 36:32.920
Yeah. That's how it is.

36:33.504 --> 36:34.714
So then, win it.

36:34.797 --> 36:36.966
I'm getting the impression
you're good at it.

36:37.049 --> 36:39.010
You have no idea. I'm better than Se-yun.

36:39.093 --> 36:41.762
But there's no chance
I could win the competition.

36:46.600 --> 36:47.852
Okay, but still,

36:48.352 --> 36:51.439
who says you have to go
into that house in order to write?

36:53.607 --> 36:54.817
Don't you understand?

36:54.900 --> 36:57.695
What do I write about?
I don't have anything else.

36:59.697 --> 37:00.656
You're right.

37:01.240 --> 37:03.451
Yep, that's true.

37:03.534 --> 37:04.535
That's true.

37:06.620 --> 37:08.706
Oh, what do we do?

37:09.206 --> 37:13.127
We need to come up… with a good idea.

37:14.795 --> 37:17.757
There's one thing that might work, but…

37:19.550 --> 37:20.634
Well, what is it?

37:28.267 --> 37:29.769
Forget it.

37:30.603 --> 37:32.271
I don't think you'd do it.

37:32.355 --> 37:35.775
What are you talking about, huh?
What wouldn't I do? Tell me.

37:44.075 --> 37:45.159
The questions.

37:46.660 --> 37:47.953
The questions?

37:51.207 --> 37:52.375
What about them?

38:07.390 --> 38:08.516
You don't mean…

38:11.477 --> 38:13.312
You wouldn't ask me…

38:15.314 --> 38:16.649
to find out what…

38:18.651 --> 38:20.736
the questions are gonna be, right?

38:21.862 --> 38:24.156
I would never ask that,
but what else can we do?

38:29.370 --> 38:30.621
Are you crazy?

38:33.040 --> 38:34.458
Oh my God. You are.

38:38.796 --> 38:40.005
You punk!

38:41.424 --> 38:43.217
How dare you suggest that to your teacher?

38:43.300 --> 38:44.927
Who do you think you are?

38:45.553 --> 38:47.805
How could you ask me to cheat for you?

38:52.226 --> 38:53.686
Hey, get out!

38:54.728 --> 38:55.980
Get outta here!

38:56.063 --> 38:57.940
I'm not giving you lessons anymore.

38:58.441 --> 39:00.526
You know, you're a real piece of work.

39:02.445 --> 39:03.696
Now, get out!

39:07.825 --> 39:09.243
Then it can't be helped.

39:11.245 --> 39:13.747
Why don't we pretend
this whole thing never happened?

39:22.339 --> 39:23.841
What are you trying to do?

39:25.426 --> 39:28.429
You're some kind of asshole? Huh?

39:40.483 --> 39:42.610
Why didn't you hand in
your assignment this week?

39:43.152 --> 39:44.945
I had nothing to write about.

39:53.412 --> 39:54.288
Hey, Lee Kang!

39:55.498 --> 39:57.166
Aren't you gonna hand anything in?

39:57.666 --> 39:59.418
If you don't, you won't get a grade!

40:02.171 --> 40:03.255
Hey.

40:04.423 --> 40:05.382
Hey!

40:05.466 --> 40:06.842
ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING
LEE KANG

40:23.817 --> 40:27.821
GUEST LECTURE WITH AUTHOR KIM SU-HUN

40:29.698 --> 40:31.075
AUTHOR OF EYES OF THE HOUSE

41:08.946 --> 41:10.239
Hello, Mr. Park.

41:10.322 --> 41:13.117
<i>Hey, Mun-oh. I mean… Mr. Heo.</i>

41:13.200 --> 41:14.952
<i>Uh, where are you?</i>

41:15.452 --> 41:16.370
Oh, uh…

41:16.453 --> 41:18.998
<i>Mr. Kim is already here</i>
<i>and waiting for you.</i>

41:19.498 --> 41:22.209
<i>You two should have a cup of coffee</i>
<i>and chat before the lecture.</i>

41:22.293 --> 41:24.461
Oh, really? Uh… he's waiting?

41:24.545 --> 41:26.714
I'm on my way now. I just parked.

41:27.214 --> 41:30.259
Ten minutes. I think I'll be there
in about ten minutes.

41:30.342 --> 41:34.888
Tell him to, uh… have a cup of tea
and wait a little longer, okay? Yeah.

41:35.389 --> 41:37.683
Sorry about that. Be right there. Yeah.

41:38.684 --> 41:39.977
Sure. All right. Yeah.

41:52.239 --> 41:54.033
Ah! It's been a while.

41:54.867 --> 41:57.911
- It really has, hasn't it? Yeah.
- It sure has. Too many years.

41:57.995 --> 42:00.164
Hey, when was the last time
we saw each other?

42:00.247 --> 42:01.957
I can't remember anything these days.

42:02.041 --> 42:04.918
Ah… Let's see, um… When was it?

42:05.002 --> 42:06.629
Sorry. No, I'm not sure either.

42:08.339 --> 42:11.175
This is great,
to see a reunion of old friends.

42:11.258 --> 42:14.386
I've never seen Mr. Heo
with such a big smile on his face.

42:14.470 --> 42:16.639
Oh, is that right?

42:17.348 --> 42:20.893
Yeah. It's true. It feels great.

42:20.976 --> 42:24.063
You haven't changed a bit.

42:24.146 --> 42:28.567
Through seven full-length novels
and four short story collections,

42:28.651 --> 42:31.111
Mr. Kim… um…

42:31.195 --> 42:34.740
you've plumbed the rich depths
of the human psyche.

42:34.823 --> 42:37.660
But in your latest novel,
<i>Eyes of the House</i>,

42:37.743 --> 42:40.162
you attempted something very different.

42:40.245 --> 42:43.040
You decided to include
aspects of the mystery genre.

42:43.123 --> 42:47.044
Yes, that's right.
I borrowed from mystery novels.

42:47.586 --> 42:51.548
But while your standard mystery
focuses on solving the murder,

42:51.632 --> 42:54.218
I was interested
in something a bit different.

42:54.968 --> 42:57.554
I took all the scenes,
including those of the murder,

42:57.638 --> 42:59.473
tore them into pieces,
and scrambled them up,

42:59.556 --> 43:03.227
so no one could be sure
what the real sequence was.

43:04.395 --> 43:08.732
What was important wasn't the revelation
of the mystery for the reader,

43:08.816 --> 43:10.901
nor was it even
the conclusion of the case.

43:10.984 --> 43:14.238
Instead, it was the fascinating ways
the characters relate to one another

43:14.321 --> 43:15.280
that I focused on.

43:18.033 --> 43:19.159
You got that, right?

43:20.452 --> 43:21.537
Well, I got it.

43:23.706 --> 43:25.207
Yes, it's truly…

43:25.290 --> 43:26.625
Well, it's remarkable.

43:26.709 --> 43:28.544
That's the reason so many

43:29.044 --> 43:32.881
have called this book "very exciting,"
"truly unexpected," and "refreshing."

43:33.674 --> 43:35.050
However…

43:35.134 --> 43:36.385
Yeah. Hmm.

43:38.011 --> 43:40.347
However… hmm…

43:40.431 --> 43:41.765
there are those…

43:42.558 --> 43:45.185
mm… hmm… mm…

43:45.269 --> 43:46.562
"There are those…"?

43:47.896 --> 43:49.815
Mm, let's just say, um,

43:49.898 --> 43:52.526
there are those who might say…

43:54.069 --> 43:56.363
Uh, and I'm sorry…

43:56.447 --> 43:58.782
…if it's uncomfortable for you to hear.

43:59.283 --> 44:02.661
But we're all here
for free discussion, aren't we?

44:02.745 --> 44:04.163
So I'll say it. Hmm?

44:06.623 --> 44:10.043
With this book, Kim Su-hun is now
a writer who accommodates the masses.

44:10.127 --> 44:11.837
Well, that is…

44:11.920 --> 44:16.341
That's an example of the sort
of critical opinions that are out there.

44:18.385 --> 44:22.014
To be clear,
it, it, it's not one I agree with.

44:22.097 --> 44:24.725
The fact is, in advance of this interview,

44:24.808 --> 44:27.978
I received a few questions
from students for you.

44:28.061 --> 44:30.856
Mm. This was one of the questions.

44:30.939 --> 44:31.899
Uh…

44:31.982 --> 44:33.609
Mm, it's right here. Um…

44:33.692 --> 44:35.444
All right, uh…

44:36.320 --> 44:38.447
Let me see.

44:39.406 --> 44:40.324
Where is it?

44:40.407 --> 44:41.825
Uh… Ah, here it is.

44:42.326 --> 44:43.702
Ah, so this…

44:44.745 --> 44:47.664
This is the one I was thinking of. Uh…

44:48.332 --> 44:53.921
"Mr. Kim Su-hun, you've long established
a reputation in literary fiction,

44:54.004 --> 44:56.590
and so I had great respect for you."

44:56.673 --> 44:59.009
"I was a huge fan of yours."

44:59.718 --> 45:05.015
"But I was very disappointed
to see you come out with a mystery novel."

45:05.516 --> 45:09.311
"Is it because you don't have
any stories left of your own,

45:09.812 --> 45:13.816
so all you could do
was accommodate the masses?"

45:14.983 --> 45:17.402
That's a tough one.

45:17.486 --> 45:19.947
"If you don't have anything left to say,

45:21.073 --> 45:23.158
um, shouldn't you

45:23.742 --> 45:28.205
face the truth
and quit writing altogether?"

45:29.039 --> 45:30.749
More or less.

45:31.542 --> 45:33.335
First, which student asked this?

45:41.927 --> 45:44.137
This isn't your question, is it, Mr. Heo?

45:44.763 --> 45:46.723
What? Uh, no. No, it's…

45:46.807 --> 45:49.184
I'm just kidding.

45:49.935 --> 45:52.646
Whoever you are, I want to thank you
for bringing up this point.

45:52.729 --> 45:54.106
You sound like a fan of my work.

45:54.731 --> 45:57.401
Not only that, but you seem to be
interested in me as well.

45:57.484 --> 46:02.114
To answer your question, yes,
I am accommodating. That's right.

46:03.866 --> 46:06.743
"Accommodate" actually has a few meanings.

46:06.827 --> 46:10.914
"To ingratiate oneself for personal gain."

46:11.415 --> 46:15.043
We typically think of
this use of the word, but it also means

46:16.003 --> 46:17.462
"to make space for."

46:18.463 --> 46:20.799
In that sense, accommodation is invaluable

46:21.300 --> 46:23.051
in the world of literature.

46:23.552 --> 46:25.721
What do we need right now

46:25.804 --> 46:30.142
but authors who are willing
to make space with their work?

46:31.143 --> 46:34.813
Always, what truly matters
is not "what," but "how."

46:35.314 --> 46:38.442
A flexible and multifaceted perspective
is crucial.

46:39.026 --> 46:41.737
If you insist on sticking
to the worldview you're familiar with,

46:41.820 --> 46:43.864
your creativity will soon wither.

46:44.656 --> 46:46.033
That is why I will continue

46:46.116 --> 46:48.619
to tell new stories,
and experiment with new forms,

46:48.702 --> 46:50.162
and strive to become better

46:50.245 --> 46:52.164
at accommodating the masses.

47:04.718 --> 47:07.638
Wow. The atmosphere
was <i>so </i>great today, wasn't it?

47:07.721 --> 47:09.723
They were amazed. They were…

47:09.806 --> 47:11.266
- It was really good.
- Mr. Kim.

47:11.350 --> 47:12.184
- Thanks.
- Uh…

47:12.267 --> 47:14.478
You know, of all the events
we've had so far,

47:14.561 --> 47:16.355
today's had the highest attendance.

47:16.438 --> 47:18.440
I've never seen the dean so excited.

47:18.523 --> 47:19.524
Oh!

47:19.608 --> 47:21.902
It was all thanks to you,
but you made me look good.

47:21.985 --> 47:24.905
Oh no, it's not thanks to me.
It's thanks to you, Mr. Park.

47:24.988 --> 47:27.074
And Mr. Heo too,
who hosted the conversation.

47:28.075 --> 47:29.242
But more than anything,

47:29.326 --> 47:31.453
the students who paid
such close attention.

47:31.536 --> 47:33.664
I got so excited
that I talked a bit too much.

47:33.747 --> 47:34.748
Ah, well, thank you.

47:34.831 --> 47:37.000
The students were really into it today.

47:37.084 --> 47:38.961
If only they acted like that
at my lectures.

47:39.044 --> 47:41.088
- Yeah.
- You just have to do better.

47:41.171 --> 47:43.173
Cheers to you. It's been an honor.

47:43.256 --> 47:45.467
- Cheers. Great to meet you.
- An honor.

47:45.550 --> 47:46.677
- Cheers.
- Thank you.

47:46.760 --> 47:48.095
- You too.
- Hmm.

47:53.934 --> 47:56.895
Hey there, Mr. Heo,
why have you been so quiet tonight?

47:57.854 --> 47:58.981
Oh, no reason.

47:59.064 --> 48:01.692
Just enjoying the company
and conversation.

48:01.775 --> 48:03.652
Oh yeah. You two are friends, right?

48:03.735 --> 48:05.153
Yes, from university.

48:05.237 --> 48:06.863
Oh!

48:07.364 --> 48:08.657
Is teaching enjoyable?

48:10.867 --> 48:13.078
Enjoyable? Are you kidding?

48:13.161 --> 48:15.288
- Mm!
- Oh, Mr. Kim.

48:15.372 --> 48:18.583
Your daughter's pen name
is Lee I-pil, right?

48:19.084 --> 48:22.421
Didn't she make her debut
with <i>Seventeen Green Wings </i>last year?

48:22.504 --> 48:24.339
- Wow! Really? Wait.
- She did.

48:24.423 --> 48:27.092
That's the writer
who won the Literary Debut Award.

48:27.175 --> 48:30.929
- She's your daughter? Wow!
- Yeah, glad to hear about that.

48:31.013 --> 48:34.141
Oh, jeez, huh?
There are no more secrets in this world.

48:34.224 --> 48:37.811
Guess who thought of her pen name
so people wouldn't know who she is.

48:37.894 --> 48:39.813
- That's great!
- Everyone knows now, I guess.

48:39.896 --> 48:42.149
It just means talent runs in the family.

48:42.232 --> 48:44.693
Oh, you must be so proud. I envy you.

48:45.193 --> 48:47.529
How did you manage
to raise such an amazing kid,

48:47.612 --> 48:48.989
on top of everything else?

48:49.072 --> 48:51.825
- You have it all. You do.
- I envy you too.

48:52.325 --> 48:55.370
My kid's still trying to figure out
what he wants to do with himself.

49:47.506 --> 49:48.757
Professor.

49:49.841 --> 49:51.051
What are you…

49:55.055 --> 49:55.972
You work here?

49:56.723 --> 49:57.557
Yeah.

49:59.142 --> 50:01.103
You're having dinner here, I guess?

50:01.895 --> 50:02.896
Mm.

50:04.356 --> 50:06.608
So what was that
you were busy writing there?

50:08.610 --> 50:09.528
Oh.

50:11.655 --> 50:12.989
This is just…

50:13.573 --> 50:16.535
Well, I'm just curious.
You don't turn anything in, so…

50:18.245 --> 50:19.121
Well,

50:20.330 --> 50:21.706
the truth is, I…

50:24.000 --> 50:28.338
I was thinking of submitting something
to a contest. Literary Debut Award.

50:29.256 --> 50:32.425
I heard their first prize money
is pretty big, so why not, right?

50:32.509 --> 50:34.427
Wait, what? An award?

50:35.345 --> 50:36.930
I thought about what you said.

50:38.390 --> 50:39.516
That I have talent.

Literary Debut Award.

51:10.088 --> 51:11.631
Little shit.

51:15.927 --> 51:18.096
The audacity.

51:25.896 --> 51:27.063
LITERARY DEBUT AWARD
LEE KANG

51:27.147 --> 51:29.191
Uh… Thank you.

51:29.691 --> 51:30.984
Thank you very much.

51:33.570 --> 51:36.364
Someone else actually deserves this award.

51:37.490 --> 51:40.535
The one who told me, "You have talent."

51:41.077 --> 51:43.955
The one who opened my eyes
to what was possible,

51:44.456 --> 51:45.957
who taught me everything.

51:46.499 --> 51:49.753
From what real writing is
to what it means to really live.

51:53.381 --> 51:54.966
Mr. Heo Mun-oh.

51:57.802 --> 51:59.721
I'll always be grateful to you.

53:00.949 --> 53:01.866
Look.

53:03.576 --> 53:07.455
The Literary Debut Award contest
isn't some kind of game, you know.

53:09.124 --> 53:12.168
You wouldn't stand a chance
with your current writing skills.

53:25.015 --> 53:25.932
Listen.

53:28.685 --> 53:29.728
Hypothetically…

53:30.228 --> 53:34.858
…if you got the questions
ahead of time for the coding competition…

53:38.820 --> 53:42.240
…would it make you…
start taking writing seriously?

53:44.242 --> 53:46.661
Would you take individual lessons from me?

53:58.965 --> 54:01.718
Tell me. Tell me, what do I need to do?

54:01.801 --> 54:03.428
Come on. What's the plan?

54:15.273 --> 54:16.941
Are you sure you're okay with this?

54:18.401 --> 54:21.571
<i>It'll be easy.</i>
<i>You just need to do as I say.</i>

54:21.654 --> 54:23.948
<i>What exactly do I need to do?</i>

54:24.032 --> 54:26.368
<i>First, go to Professor Park's office.</i>

54:26.868 --> 54:28.119
<i>Professor Park?</i>

54:28.912 --> 54:30.789
- <i>From the College of Engineering?</i>
- <i>Yes.</i>

54:30.872 --> 54:33.375
<i>He's the head of the committee</i>
<i>for the coding competition.</i>

54:34.250 --> 54:37.837
<i>Oh, that guy.</i>
<i>He's got a finger in every pie.</i>

54:38.380 --> 54:41.424
<i>W… wait. Did you know that I know him?</i>

54:42.342 --> 54:44.636
<i>Of course I know that.</i>
<i>That's why this'll work.</i>

54:44.719 --> 54:46.554
<i>What? I've seen you two talking.</i>

54:47.055 --> 54:49.349
- Enjoy your meal.
- Ah, yeah. Thank you.

54:50.100 --> 54:52.018
- Here you go. Enjoy.
- Thank you very much.

54:55.397 --> 54:58.024
- Hello, sir.
- Oh. Mm.

55:01.236 --> 55:02.737
Mr. Park.

55:02.821 --> 55:04.322
Oh, Mun-oh!

55:04.406 --> 55:05.949
Come join me.

55:06.032 --> 55:08.076
- Having a late lunch?
- Yeah, you too…

55:08.159 --> 55:10.620
<i>All right, so I go to Mr. Park's office.</i>

55:10.703 --> 55:12.372
<i>What do I do once I'm there?</i>

55:12.455 --> 55:13.873
<i>The competition is tomorrow,</i>

55:13.957 --> 55:16.543
<i>so the questions will be</i>
<i>on Professor Park's computer.</i>

55:16.626 --> 55:20.004
<i>All you need to do is copy them</i>
<i>onto a USB drive. Simple, right?</i>

55:20.088 --> 55:21.548
<i>No, it's not simple!</i>

55:21.631 --> 55:23.425
<i>How am I supposed</i>
<i>to get into his computer?</i>

55:23.925 --> 55:25.593
<i>I don't know his password!</i>

55:25.677 --> 55:27.429
<i>I know. I thought of that.</i>

55:27.512 --> 55:30.098
<i>Professor Park is going to</i>
<i>unlock it himself.</i>

55:33.601 --> 55:35.270
- Mm.
- Mr. Park.

55:35.353 --> 55:36.312
Hmm?

55:36.813 --> 55:40.275
I, um… would like to ask you a favor.

55:40.942 --> 55:43.445
Wow. You're asking me to do you a favor?

55:44.821 --> 55:47.574
- Sure, go ahead.
- Uh, I just thought, um…

55:47.657 --> 55:52.328
I thought I'd make a little change
in my… my attendance system.

55:52.412 --> 55:53.496
- Really?
- Yeah.

55:53.580 --> 55:56.166
You were saying there was an easier way?

55:56.249 --> 55:59.002
Wow. I have to say,
this is music to my ears.

55:59.085 --> 56:01.087
Yeah, it's about time you changed it.

56:01.171 --> 56:02.589
Hey, how's this?

56:02.672 --> 56:04.966
I can come by your office
and install it for you.

56:05.049 --> 56:06.801
No, not at my office. Uh…

56:07.343 --> 56:09.804
I'd rather go to your office.

56:10.305 --> 56:15.310
Um… because I wanted to see
how it works, just to be sure.

56:15.894 --> 56:17.854
Uh-huh. Yeah?

56:17.937 --> 56:22.233
I'm, uh… I don't really have time today.
But you can come by my office tomorrow.

56:22.317 --> 56:23.318
- That works.
- Tomorrow?

56:23.818 --> 56:26.279
It won't work.
Tomorrow's the contest. Do it today.

56:27.739 --> 56:29.991
Uh… That's not, uh…

56:30.074 --> 56:32.577
- Tomorrow's not good. I'm a bit busy.
- Mm-hmm?

56:33.369 --> 56:36.039
Couldn't we today?
It won't take long, will it?

56:36.122 --> 56:38.958
- Today? Right now?
- Sure. Just a few minutes.

56:39.542 --> 56:41.503
Okay, well,
I have a little time right now.

56:41.586 --> 56:44.255
- I'll just finish up.
- Great. Okay. Let's get going.

56:44.339 --> 56:45.256
Hmm?

56:45.340 --> 56:47.050
- Let's strike while the iron's hot.
- <i>Now </i>now?

56:47.133 --> 56:49.677
Oh yeah, just for a bit.
Anyway, the food is… terrible.

56:49.761 --> 56:52.180
- But I barely ate anything.
- Oh, terrible, really.

56:52.263 --> 56:54.766
- I'll owe you one.
- But… um…

56:54.849 --> 56:56.184
- Let's go.
- But what about the…

56:56.267 --> 56:58.019
- Don't worry. Hey, Kim.
- Yes?

56:58.102 --> 57:00.063
- Would you mind clearing this? Thanks.
- Sure.

57:00.146 --> 57:01.731
- Sorry to ask. Thanks.
- Have a good one.

57:01.814 --> 57:03.858
I went on for about 30 minutes.

57:03.942 --> 57:07.028
But when the show came out,
I was only on it for a minute or two.

57:08.238 --> 57:11.199
And that's after they showed up
at my office and begged me to do it.

57:11.282 --> 57:14.035
Jeez! Ah…

57:14.118 --> 57:16.287
Once you get used to it, it's much easier.

57:16.371 --> 57:18.206
- Hi, Professor.
- Hey, Mi-jin.

57:18.289 --> 57:19.958
<i>No. No, no, no, I can't do it.</i>

57:20.041 --> 57:23.294
<i>I don't think I can do this. How could I?</i>

57:23.378 --> 57:25.588
<i>I'm a teacher, a professor.</i>

57:25.672 --> 57:27.549
<i>It's too late to say that now.</i>

57:28.091 --> 57:29.259
Hmm?

57:30.218 --> 57:31.886
Hey, Mun-oh, are you okay?

57:34.013 --> 57:36.558
Uh, well, Mr. Park, uh…

57:36.641 --> 57:39.435
Sorry. I… I need…
I need to use the bathroom.

57:39.519 --> 57:41.396
All right, sure.

57:41.896 --> 57:43.106
- Right down there.
- Okay.

57:43.189 --> 57:44.440
- I'll go ahead.
- Won't be long.

57:44.524 --> 57:46.109
All good.

57:59.872 --> 58:02.125
<i>There's no need to feel guilty.</i>

58:02.208 --> 58:04.377
<i>I'm not gonna do the finals anyway,</i>

58:04.877 --> 58:06.546
<i>so this won't hurt anybody.</i>

58:13.219 --> 58:14.304
Hit this.

58:14.387 --> 58:16.639

<i>The only problem is how we get</i>
<i>Professor Park out of his office.</i>

58:24.355 --> 58:26.399
<i>- I'm not sure how--</i>
- <i>Don't worry.</i>

58:26.482 --> 58:28.818
- Get your TAs to do this.
- <i>I've come up with a plan.</i>

58:28.901 --> 58:31.487
- They won't like it.
- <i>What? You have? What is it?</i>

58:31.571 --> 58:35.700
…end of the semester, the attendance is
automatically included in the final grade.

58:37.660 --> 58:39.370
- What is it?
- My chest.

58:39.454 --> 58:41.789
- Hmm?
- Oh no! Oh no! It's coming!

58:41.873 --> 58:42.999
W… w… what's going on?

58:43.082 --> 58:44.626
- Huh?
- Oh no, no, no, no, no!

58:44.709 --> 58:46.127
What--

58:46.210 --> 58:48.254
Are you okay? Should I call 911?

58:48.338 --> 58:50.882
No, no, no, no.
No, don't call an ambulance.

58:50.965 --> 58:52.759
- I think, uh--
- Just a minute.

58:52.842 --> 58:55.219
Wait, what?

58:55.303 --> 58:58.014
Ah! In the car, I have medication. Please.

58:58.097 --> 58:59.849
Okay, what is it? What's it for?

58:59.932 --> 59:01.184
Oh, it's for my angina.

59:01.267 --> 59:03.645
- Angina…
- What's that? You have angina? Really?

59:03.728 --> 59:05.480
Okay! It's okay! Wait here a minute!

59:05.563 --> 59:07.398
- Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Park.
- Wait! Just wait here!

59:07.482 --> 59:09.942
- Mr. Park, I'm sorry.
- Okay, I'll be right back!

59:10.026 --> 59:11.694
- Hello, Professor.
- Hey. Yeah, yeah.

59:18.284 --> 59:19.369
Where are you?

59:25.541 --> 59:28.711
- <i>What's the medication for?</i>
- <i>You don't need to know, kid.</i>

59:29.504 --> 59:31.255
<i>Hemorrhoids.</i>

59:33.466 --> 59:35.593

59:35.677 --> 59:37.595
Oh, sh…

59:37.679 --> 59:38.513
Forget it.

59:38.596 --> 59:40.390
<i>You know you make me lose control</i>

59:40.473 --> 59:44.560
<i>But… the parking lot is too close.</i>
<i>It'll take him, like, five minutes.</i>

59:44.644 --> 59:46.354
- Hello!
- <i>Five minutes is plenty.</i>

59:46.437 --> 59:47.980
<i>Just tell me the file name.</i>

59:48.898 --> 59:52.443
<i>Actually, I don't know</i>
<i>what the file name is.</i>

<i>You really are gonna</i>
<i>give me a heart attack.</i>

01:00:20.263 --> 01:00:21.723
Damn it. Where is it?

01:00:24.475 --> 01:00:25.560
Let's see.

01:00:26.352 --> 01:00:27.311
Oh!

01:00:27.395 --> 01:00:29.772
