Isn't that obvious? Me of course.

What, it's true!

He likes ice slurry, hates bean rice,

long toes,

good sense of humor and so considerate too.

Calling all the good traits?

He's got the beautiful eyes and brain from me.

He has my eyes.

Shut it, get some more beer!

- Come with?

- Okay.

Dad, washroom.

- Sure, I'll be here.

- Okay.

Are you really a kid?

So friggin' weird.

Maybe he's an alien.

They said on TV...

His disease makes him old super fast.

Let me go.

Give it back!

- Holy sh*t!

- What the f***!

Damn...Is it contagious?

Ahreum?

Dad!

You okay? Your hat?

"Dad"?

That's his dad?

What a great son, taking his elderly father

for a walk.

How can a human give birth to a gollum?

Gollum.

What did you say?

Hold this and stay behind me.

Dad...

Trust me.

Stay back.

Dammit!

Hot dang!

Hot!

Dang!

Barn! Barn! Barn!

Hot dang!

Grab him!

Enough! Please stop!

Hot dang!

Dad, no...

Oh no...

Are you okay? I'm so sorry...

What the hell?!

My son's ill, and they were teasing him,

- so my husband...

- They are rascals!

You attacked us first!

Come here!

Hit me!

Come at me!

Nice going, just how old are you?

You got an anger issue!

You promised never to fight!

Then should I let them tease him

and do nothing?

They called him 'gollum', would you hold back?!

What kind of father would I be?!

Dammit...

Now I'm pissed.

Sh*t!

I'll shred those sons of b*tches...

We have to stop her!

Mira!

Sweetie!

Mira! Mira!

I'm sorry, I'll never fight again.

Let go of me!

Where are you going? They're gone.

I'll whip you too!

Don't touch me.

Mira!

Mira! Please!

Tonight, I finally saw...

'Sh*t Princess' and 'Incompetent Swing Kick'.

This is where the artery ruptured slightly.

We were lucky, it could've led to a stroke.

How could we not have known about it?

The migraine must've been painful.

He never said anything?

I told you to say something if you felt pain.

When am I ever not in pain?

How could you let this happen?

He may not live past this year...

Doctor...

- Ahreum.

- Yes?

Could you go outside for a bit?

I want to hear it.

Honey, please go outside.

Brain's one thing,

but the arteries could rupture soon.

Think of it as...

a ticking time bomb in his heart.

Admit him right away, we can't help otherwise.

Weather's so nice!

Let's walk a little bit.

Sweetie, don't stare.

Let's go home.

I didn't know he lived here.

Walk faster, people are staring.

Probably admiring my beauty.

Aren't you embarrassed?

Of what? Why should I be?

What's with you?

You're sick. Don't mind anything else.

Don't mind the stares or the bills,

just act your age.

Complain and cry like a kid if it hurts!

But I don't look like a kid.
