(Now we have to meet someone from Sungsan-dong!)
Do people come here to eat often?
They mostly take the food home...
(Got permission to wait outside!) Mind if we take seats outside?
(Disappointed)
(Were quite busy this evening, too tired to talk...)
(Let's see...)
(Had to get candy for himself)
(Ugh...)
(A young man enters the CVS)
(Stares)
(Spots his target) I think he's going to eat!
(It's time to get down!)
- Hello! - Nice to meet you!
(Straight to the point) Are you going to eat now?
- Yeah - At where?
Where are you going to eat?
(Pondering) Could be here or at home...
Eat with us right here!
Okay...
(Finally got their yes!)
(Oh wait...) Where do you live?
Right around here in Sungsan-dong...
Is it far from here?
It's close
(He sure is local here!)
Thank goodness
Hahahahahaha
(A success for Kyung-kyu and Key!) We didn't even have to talk that much!
Finally, a warm meal at CVS is finally granted to them
What do you want to eat?
(In Sung-jin / 26) Shrimp ramen?
(The hero's choice is shrimp ramen!)
This will do
(They each chose their favorite ramen) How much is this?
Are you a student?
I just draw things...
Oh really?
Then what do you draw?
I draw illustrations
(Jealous of everything) Got a lot of things going in there, huh?
(Get it in!)
(Thank goodness for this food!)
(The dinner is prepared in no time)
You get the water
and you microwave, right?
- Hot water is enough though... - Oh, really?
(He's into microwaved ramen these days) But it tasted better
(Mr.Know-it-all) I learned that from the last time
(The 96th dinner @ Banpo) It's better when you microwave it
(Life hack tips from Banpo youngsters) You all got your own know-how
- I'll sit here - Okay
(Spending the budget to the last penny!) I'll see what I can buy with the change
(Returns)
- What is that? - It's kimchi!
Excellent choice
(Can't forget about the meal picture!)
(Shrimp ramen, big-sized ramen, seafood ramen w/ kimchi) This dinner is the key
that opened the doors to two lost souls
So what's your name?
It's In Sung-jin
- In Sung-jin - Like when you say 'stay in'
How old are you?
I'm 26
born in 1993
What about you?
I'm 2 years older than him...!
(Got a bit awkward...)
(Thought there was an age gap there...) You look more...
It's the beard...
Right, the beard
I thought it was another drama that
you guys were shooting here...
(Still confused) I thought the shooting was over so I just went inside
- Well actually - Yeah
(Article 11 of 'Let's Eat Dinner Together) We can
(You can have dinner at CVS only if the guest lives in the neighborhood) eat at CVS only if the guest lives in the town
- Oh, I see - So it's Sungsan-dong resident for today
(Much thanks) If you weren't from this town, we wouldn't eat
(It's couldn't...not wouldn't...) Oh, really?
(It's couldn't...not wouldn't...) It goes against our rules
Mr.Lee actually lived here for a long time
Oh, really?
I lived here for about 7-8 years
right after I got married
It was my first marital house
(Huh?)
(It's not like I had marriages before...) I mean without the word "first"
Thanks for the meal!
Key was no key to open up the doors...
But he managed to open the doors of CVS to get his meal
(Away with the hunger!)
Ugh!
That's so much better
(Slurp)
(Hot steams)
Although Kyung-kyu failed to spot his old house
He's making new memories out here at CVS
(A sip of soup)
Whoa!
How's it?
Good huh?
(Delicious) Can't be better
(Having the meal of the day with Sung-jin)
So what's the reason you chose to live here?
Because it's close to the Hongik Univ. area
- Oh, I see - Yeap
Lots of artistic places around here...
I came here just because I wanted to draw
and make a living out of it...
Where did you live before?
I'm from Daejeon
Oh, Daejeon!
Daejeon where?
In Jung-gu area...
(Before) I used to study fashion design...
- Apart from the fact that it's close to Hongik Univ. - Yeah
isn't the rent fee more affordable than in other places?
(Fairly cheaper than Seogyo or Yeon-nam area) Yeah, that's another reason
And it's so quiet out here for a neighborhood
with popular places!
(A calm yet entertaining neighborhood!) That's right! That's the thing I like about this place
So drawing is your passion, right?
Yeah, I want to become a professional illustrator
(Curious) Can we see your work?
- My work? - Yeah
(Shy) It's nothing special...
(He shyly reveals his piece of work) They're mostly sketches from my practice
Wow!
(Such a high-quality sketch) It kinda looks like a tattoo
Oh, really?
You said you're not good at drawing?
That's nonsense...
- it's way cool - I know right?
(Another impressive piece) That's a whale!
It looks like it's from a game!
Looks like one of the intros from RPG games
- (Proud) Appreciate that - They really look cool
You don't know unless you ask them what they do...
(Mr.In is striving to achieve his dreams)
So I guess you don't go to college anymore?
I took some years off...
and I was expelled this year
The school was my plan B
But now
(He's planning to solely focus on his dreams) I don't mind getting expelled now
(He's planning to solely focus on his dreams) I just came here to focus on my drawings
So how do you like living here?
- It's hard - I guess so, huh?
- I'm not making any money these days... - It really is a tough road
It must've been hard thinking about jobs and stuff
Yeah, finding a job gave me a hard time before
(Mr. Sung-jin solely wants to) But I'm just going to focus on drawing
(focus on drawing) until I run out of my savings
So when did you quit your last job?
- It's been a while - I see
(Investing his savings) I was in Daejeon, not spending my savings
(to his dreams!) But I chose to come here and keep my expenses minimum
And
even though I say it's okay
- my parents has been sending money thankfully... - Of course
(Striving for his dreams thinking of his parents) That's another reason why I keep my spending minimum...
(Which career path you want to take?) What kind of illustration do you work on?
There must be many ways for illustrators to make a living
- Like going to ad agencies - Yeah
I wish I could become a freelancer
that can do all of those stuff but
I'm at the stage where I think I should focus on the basics
(Still working on his skills) rather than choosing what I want to do
(Still working on his skills) My drawing is a bit weak, even though I want to do it
And I'm really into it these days...
So I just want to become a person
who can really draw well
so people can recognize me which will lead to many paths
So I'm trying to get my style and skills done right now
And I don't think it's too late to try either
(Back when he was in military service) (The painting he drew himself)
The endeavors that this young man is doing right now...
Will be the Key to his future later on
