"Oh, is that you, Ma'am?" "Yes, it is." " I'II let you know." " Yes, give me a call." " Have a safe trip." " Yes." " Mr. Han." " Congratulations." "Thank you." "please be kind on the review." "Mr Han, Get home safely." "It was unbelievably successful." "Everything is sold." "AII of them except Natali." "You were fabulous today." "Oh, and that guy called again." "He said he was in your class in college." "class of '97, he said." "I told him that if he wanted to see you so much, he should just come by sometime." " Should I tell him not to come?" " No, Iet him." "Are you going to sell Natali?" "The journalists are wondering who Natali's real model is." "Hello." "My name is Jang Min Woo." "Hello." "I'm here to see professor Hwang." "Is he here?" "What is it about?" "Hum." "I think I have told you that I would Iike to purchase Natali." "I'm sorryto say, but I don't think that will happen." "Why not?" "Why do you want her so badly?" " Because I also have a secret my own." " What secret?" "The exhibition is over." " Professor Hwang Jun-hyuk?" " Yes, I am." "Hello." "I'm Jang Min-woo." "I was moved by your work." "Wait, wait." "Would you let me write a review on your work?" "You want to write about my work?" "I don't even know you." "No, wait." "Professor," "I was one of your students." "In art school, class of '97" "Natali." "I would Iike to hear more about Natali." "Don't you dare touch it." "What do you want to hear about Natali?" "I can feel her spirit." "It's as if she's alive." "And it seems she is waiting for someone." "Who the hell are you?" "Tell me about her." "The real person." "Who is the real Natali?" "Are you asking the difference between reality and art?" "I'm asking about the real model of Natali." "Hey, this work of art and the model have nothing in common." "Are you saying that Natali was created on its own?" "I am not sure if you have a theme of this review." "My theme is on Natali." "Just have some tea." "Here." "Don't even dream about writing about my work." "We actually don't need permission from anyone to write art reviews." "Jang Min-woo, or Jung Min-woo." "Whatever your name is." "My name is Jang Min-woo." "Mr. Jang, you put down of other people's work to make a living." "So, you want me to give you something to gossip about?" "People like you don't deserve to exist in this world." "Stop threatening other people, and do something more creative." "I agree on that, but who will write about your great work of creation then?" "If it wasn't for me, those rocks..." "Did you just say rocks?" "No, I meant your work would be valued simply by its weight but nothing else." "Don't be surprised." "This is just a piece of rock, just like you said." "In your eyes, what does it look like?" "A turtle or an elephant?" "Do you know the difference between a sculptor and a stonecutter?" "If he thinks as he cuts, he's a sculptor." "On the other side, a stonemaker cut for work and not for art." "What about the one who made Inscriptions on your ancestor's headstones?" "Is he a sculptor or a stonecutter?" "Well." "Do you think you know what art is?" "Can you look at the nature of objects?" "No." "But Professor, I don't think you can see the nature of women either." "Ah." "Are we talking about curator Park?" "What?" "Did she criticize me?" "Are you afraid of other people's criticism?" "No." "Whatever she says is not important to me." "Why is that?" "Because she is in love with me." "Well." "What do you know about me and curator Park?" "Well, if she loved you, she wouldn't call you such as a sex fiend." "Young man." "One poet once said that" "Iove is a bitch." "Do you want to sleep with her?" "The world consists of two parts:" "men and women." "It's like yin and yang, so to speak." "She loved my work at first, then she got attached physically but." "I just know once having her in my bed." "She's just a bit angry at me because she can't have me." "She knows there's another woman in my heart." "A well known, but madly ill-mannered sculptor and a curator who needs his work." "She could have been faking an orgasm." "Yeah?" "Anyways, she forgets while we have sex." "When the sex is over, she is angry again." "Do you have sex with only one woman?" "Talk to me." "I'm curious about you." "Are you married?" "You must be married." "You must love your wife very much." "How would you know all that?" "You wouldn't even cheat." "You don't look like the type." "Stop it." "Do you think I am an idiot?" "No." "You look too serious." "In fact, disgustingly sincere." "Not all men have to fool around like you do." "Come on!" "That's a given in this country." "Motels outnumber churches in this country." "Do you know how the motel owners make a living?" "Yes, honey." "I'm at the office." "Huh?" "It's just a headache." "Gotta go for a meeting." "Talk to you later." "A married woman sends her husband to work in the morning as usual." "Have you ever had sex with a woman at 1 1AM overlooking the river?" "Do you believe in monogamy?" "What you see isn't all truth." "It's becoming a world of polygamy." "Adultery is simply a word from the past." "Is your wife at home as she says?" "Or is she with another man in a bed?" "Don't you want to know the truth?" "please, don't apply your experience to everyone else's." "There are many people in this world who live with love and truth." "Why was it that a King had 3000 concubines in his palace back then?" "Do you want to be a king?" "I'm just a sculptor." "Ten years ago, after your last exhibition." "Didn't you say that you won't create or release any more work?" "I did say that." "What made you change your mind?" "I don't ask you to understand a fickle minded artist." "What is the reason that you released to the press your ten year old work, Natali?" "It's the gallery's marketing planning." "That's what they do." "I know someone who'd Iike to purchase Natali at the highest price." " I'm just not." " And why is that?" "Just don't want to." "I'II buy it." "I doubt you can afford it." "Yes, I know very well." "Kan Yakumari was $10,000." "149 Sitalie was $20,000." "Kali was $30,000." "Gauri, the goddess that nurtures all lands was priced at $50,000." "Oh, that's impressive." "You're smarter than Curator Park." "So, how much are you going to sell Natalie for?" "I'm afraid this is not a grocery market where you can buy anything." "Of course not, I value your work." "I will pay." " Can you afford it?" " Yes." "I have enough." "I don't think you have earned enough yet at your age." "Did you inherit a Iot?" "Just give me the price." "It's impossible to estimate its value." "And your other work can?" "In that sense, I feel bad for them." "Anyway, I won't sell Natali." "There's a special story behind Natali." "OK, then." "It really is hard dealing with a stubborn artist." "Thank you for taking your time." "You!" "Why are you so obsessed with Natali, anyway?" "You didn't come in here for an art review, did you?" "Do you know Natali?" "Tell me!" "Do you know who Natali is?" "Huh?" "Before I answer this, tell me who you think Natali is." "I'II tell you who Natali is." "Natali is me." "It's me, Hyo-rim Park." "Curator Park, do you really think that it is you?" "You can never be Natali." "Then," "you played with me to make this piece of metal?" "You son of a bitch." "What you're holding is the woman I Iove." "I wanted to create the most beautiful woman in the world." "I'II get ready." "Curator Park was also part of my inspiration." "But nothing or nobody could truly help me." "They were all just useless and obvious imitations." "Days turned into months." "I simply couldn't do anything." "Stunning body movements mixed with mortal seduction." "Right after that moment, she invaded my Iife completely." "Until now, in various art works, sculptures and construction projects, have been used in various ways." "Even the Egyptian pyramids were built using this golden proportion." "Especially symbols and figures." "She excited me to recreate her through my hands." "'Art and our desire towards it'" "Because human beings can't exist forever, we live with the dilemma we dream of eternity." "So we desire to capture the beauty at the peak of it." "We always desire to be more beautiful." "I believe that every art piece begins from this." "Do you understand?" " OK, that's all." " Thank you." " You have a nice vacation too." " Professor, please get married this year." " Professor?" " Yes?" "Would you sign this to celebrate the end of the semester?" "Autograph?" "Sure." " What's your name?" " Don't you know my name?" "Pardon?" " It's Mi-ran." "Oh Mi-ran." " alright, Mi-ran." "What should I write for you?" "I want you." "What?" "Write, "I want you."" "OK, then." "I want to be your model." "That's ridiculous." "You're telling me that she seduced you first?" "Yes, it was seduction." "A seduction nobody could refuse." "The Mi-ran I know is not that type of girl." "I decided to be bold with her seduction." "If you're ready, shall we get started?" "Yes." "You don't have to take off the skirt." "Would you go up there and sit down?" "Wait." "Try to be steady." "Just relax." "Hold on a second." "The more we did the bolder she became." "That's how our love started becoming stronger than anyone else's in this world." "She made me excited over and over." "We made love again and again." "We didn't want to stop," "I could have died with her." "When I made love to her." "Don't lie to me." "Stop interrupting." "That makes no sense at all!" "Every moment with her is still vivid to me." "please." "Why did you break up with her then?" "Why didn't you just marry her?" "We didn't break up." "We swore that we would love each other forever." "We truly wanted our love to be eternal." "If you love someone, do you have to marry that person?" "You're making all this up." "The Mi-ran I know isn't some easy woman!" "To me, she's pure and mysterious, as if she came from a mythical tale." "She's a creation who looks as if she jumped out of a painting." "Human beings will have to face death eventually." "we live with the dilemma that we dream of eternity." "So we desire to capture the beauty at the peak of it." "We always desire to be more beautiful." "Every art piece begins from this." "That's all for this semester." "Good work everyone." "Hey, excuse me!" " Excuse me!" " Me?" " You're in a dance major, right?" " Yes, what's up?" "I saw you dancing before." "Okay." "I want to draw you dancing." "Why would you want to draw me?" "Because you're special." "Special?" "That sounds nice." "Wait." " Professor." " Yes?" "Would you sign this to celebrate the end of the semester?" "Sure." "What's your name?" "Mi-ran." "Oh Mi-ran, right?" "Yes." " Here." " Thank you." ""I want you."" "Can we talk?" "Just for a minute." "I was just wondering if you'd be my model." " It's nothing too difficult." " Could you hold on a second?" "It won't take too long." "You took her away in the dirtiest way." "You put her in the corner with a dirty trick." "You destroyed her with this disgusting excuse you call 'art'." "Why don't you just write a novel?" "Huh?" "You are distorting the past in order to beautify your work." "I think you are the one who is twisted out of the memories." "That's not true." "Well, I can relate to you." "You loved Mi-ran but couldn't have her all." "The jealousy towards me with the desire for her." "Your memories could be completely twisted." "You can say whatever you want." "But you can't avoid the fact." "So you fooled her completely for your own good." "Shut up!" "If you loved her to the death, how could you leave her?" "I said I didn't leave her!" "Was she too much to handle since she was too young?" "Or you slept with a young student impulsively." "But felt sorryfor her suddenly?" "Professor." "Did you do well on your exam?" " Yes." " Hello, Professor" " Just a minute." " I missed you." "Should we go get something to eat?" "I was worried didn't get the letters yet." " When did you leave it there?" " About a week ago." "Why aren't you saying anything else?" "You agree with me, don't you?" "I won't deny what you're saying." "But that wasn't the problem." "Age wasn't a problem for us either." "As time went by, we only sought physical pleasure." "Professor," "aren't you getting married?" "A son and a daughter." "They look happy." "Why do you think people get married and have babies?" "That's because a man has met an overly determined woman." "When a man marries, it's because he's met the most cruel and spiteful woman on earth." "No way, then is your mother one of them?" "How about we just live together?" "We don't need marriage." "I don't want to crawl into a grave of love because of traditions and any convenience." "Well, Mi-ran, it may not be easy for you to understand now." "The lust for a woman reborn through my work," "I naturally fall in love with the woman." "But on the other hand, I couldn't see the passion in my work." "It started to diminish." "I got addicted to her continuously and so did she." "How's Natali?" "Ten years later, I would compare myself to Natali." "She promised me she would come back ten years later and left me." "I blamed myself for not being able to hold her back." "So, you ended up leaving Mi-ran." "Are you expecting her to appear today looking like an angel?" "Then, why isn't she here?" "Your love just lingers in your fantasy." "You are irresponsible immature person who can't break into reality." "Mi-ran might have forgotten you." "Love might just end before it reaches a decade." "Don't interpret it for your own convenience." "You." "Why are you still obsessed with your one-sided Iove from the past?" "I probably think I was the only hope for miserable Mi-ran after you left her." "I couldn't see Mi-ran even when she completely came to me." "Do you think you know her better than I do?" "I know her very well." "Since she is my wife." "What?" "A wife!" "I've been looking for you since last week." "What's going on with you?" "Do you love me?" "Yes." "Really?" "Min-woo." "Even though someone else is in my heart, can you still love me?" "Yes." "Forever?" "Yes, forever." "She promised eternal love." "This is ridiculous." "When I was at a loss in sorrow." "She did eat, sleep and have sex with you." "Why the hell did you come to me?" "Why did you?" "If you didn't come," "I would have been missing her for the rest of my Iife." "Did she send you or did she ask you to bring Natali?" "Get out of my face now." "Give Natali to me." "No." " I can't do that." " She's my wife." "Natali is just one of the easy women that I have spent a night with." "Does it make you feel better to objectify Natali in a cheap and shameful way?" "Yes, I should give away that meaningless steel to someone" "That's enough!" "Tell your wife, that my past, my work, my promises, I take it all back and I regret everything." " I wouldn't be able to." " Go and tell her." "Don't leave out a single word." "Natali is a dirty and cheap whore." " You hear me?" " That's enough!" "I won't deliver a single word you said." "Why?" "Why won't you?" "Why!" "Why!" "Why!" "Because..." "Mi-ran..." "Mi-ran... is gone." "Mi-ran, Oh Mi-ran!" "How could you say that?" "Oh Mi-ran." "No, this is my first baby." "I'm going to have it." "This would kill you." "Honey, please..." "No, I can't let you." "If I don't have you, I'II die." "We can always have another baby." "Who's going to die?" "I won't." "Mi-ran wanted to have Ye-rim." "I will be fine." "If we didn't have her, Mi-ran could've lived." "In the end, as Mi-ran wanted, we stopped Chemo treatment." "And we were able to have our healthy daughter, Ye-rim." "Are you all right?" "Yeah." "Come here, Ye-rim." "Mi-ran had ovarian cancer." "Ye-rim." "After she had Ye-rim, the cancer spread all over her body so we couldn't do nothing about it." "But I think Mi-ran was not afraid." "Are you awake, baby?" "I'm fine." "Hold me tight." "You know, the doctor said I can have sex." "I'm sorry." "Honey." "Honey." "I Iove you." "What?" "I said I Iove you." "Me too." "I Iove you, too." "I had no idea." "Natali must be meaningful than any of your work for you." "Can you forgive me?" "please." "Forgive me." "please." "Mi-ran" "tried to keep her words until the end." "She waited for you until the very last moment." "Right before she passed away I found this out by accident." "Why, why did you do this?" "Why!" "She missed you." "Until the Iast moment." "This is the letter she left for you." "We have to see each other." "I don't think I can keep my promise seeing you after ten years from now." "If I could see you just once." "I want to say this to you." "Do you know what she was going to tell me?" "No, I am curious too." "That's why I came to see you." "You said you have a daughter." "Will you bring her sometime?" "I missed you." "It doesn't matter what she was going to say." "In the way as I always wanted to." "I will love you Mi-ran." "Even though it will take an eternity," "I will come to you." "Hope this mail box will take me to you Mi-ran."
