Are you his relative?

No, I am not.

His mom is in a

complicated situation.

So I'm keeping him for a while.

Wait a minute...

I read about the Filipino woman

stabbing that doctor with a knife.

- It was on the news?

- Yes.

It was scissors, not a knife.

So that was his mom?

Unbelievable!

What a coincidence!

Great!

You can take care of him

as you're a Filipino, too.

I can't. I have my situation too.

I'm sorry.

But he's from your home country!

Sorry.

No, it's fine.

He can stay with me.

I am sorry.

Wait a minute, please.

This granny will find your mom.

So stay with her for now

and be a good boy, okay?

Okay.

You should call this number.

What does it say?

Emergency Support Center

for Migrant Women?

I see.

Ketchup or mayonnaise?

Eat up.

Sausage?

The kitty must be hungry, too.

Wait till we finish!

What are you looking at?

Funny?

Eat.

Eat that.

Do-hoon, are you in there?

He went out a while ago.

That's why no one answered.

Good morning.

Hello, Adindu.

'Hello. What is your name? '

'Hello.'

'My name is Kang Min-ho.'

Your name is Min-ho?

Ms. Youn.

Hello, sweetie.

- It's been a while.

- Yes, indeed.

My daughter sent me on

a trip to Thailand.

- Give me a Bacchus drink.

- Only the drink?

Min-ho.

- Is he with you?

- Yes.

What is this about?

Don't worry.

He can wait downstairs.

Gosh.

I'll be back soon.

He'll behave.

Okay.

Wait here.

I come back, okay?

Go inside.

Sit over there.

How romantic!

Hello?

Damn.

I got it.

Sweetie, cops are here.

What?

What should we do?

There's no proof that you paid me.

You stay and watch TV.

I can't afford to be in trouble.

I really have to go.

I've been caught too many times.

Sorry.

What is this about?

Stay still.

You were paid, right?

No, I wasn't!

- What about these twenty dollars?

- That's mine!

I told you we are lovers.

Don't bullshit us.

How about Room 205?

Let's go home.

Check that room!

Hurry!

I'm screwed today.

No work, no money.

Adindu, do you have Pongpong?

Hallo, hallo.

Do you have Pongpong?

Ponpon?

Don't you know?

It's soap for dishes.

I see. One moment.

You want?

Gosh, you work out hard.

I don't have anything else

to spend my energy for.

How often do you do it?

Do what?

Have sex.

Can't do it enough at your age.

Tell me about it.

It's killing me.

I owe a lot to Miss H.

Your girlfriend?

Nope.

Oh, Miss Handy...

But there's plenty of fish

in the sea.

Holy sh*t.

Put it away.

Plenty of fish,

but none for me.

How can it scare you

every time?

I don't know.

Itjust does.

I can't get used to it.

Maybe since you had something

chopped off too?

What?

That makes sense.

Shut up!

Don't visualize it!

I never should've rented to a
