Quotes 

• Kim Joo Won : [trying to fathom why they never consummated their relationship]  Be honest. Wasn't it because your personal charms are rather sorely deficient?

  Gil Ra Im : Do you want to die? It's too bad when you survived, good sense couldn't?

  Kim Joo Won : Is this how you regularly treat me?

  Gil Ra Im : Only when you deserved it, which is really quite often.

• Lim Jong Su : I heard about you losing your memory.

  Kim Joo Won : So we two must have been close for you to know that much about me? That or... she'd been sleeping around on me?

  Lim Jong Su : You wanna get hit again?

  Kim Joo Won : Again? You mean to say you've hit me before? Ha. Your nerves must be made of steel.

• Gil Ra Im : [learning her part in Dark Blood has been given way]  I wanted to do so well. I'm sorry.

  Kim Joo Won : I got it. I don't know what this is about, but if you're sorry you can compensate me for it later. You know, I'm pretty smart when it comes to calculations.

• [Joo Won enters wearing his old blue designer track suit] 

  Choi 'Oska' Woo Young : You're back to wearing THAT thing? Some personal preferences... are truly frightening.

  Kim Joo Won : Hey, you. What's your opinion of this? Any thoughts?

  Han Tae sun 'Ssun' : You're not the only person in this world, you know. Why strive to be a public eyesore?

  Kim Joo Won : What? Who is THIS guy?

  Choi 'Oska' Woo Young : He's the producer of my new seventh album, that's who.

  Kim Joo Won : What have the standards of Korean music come to? You're making a SEVENTH album?

  Han Tae sun 'Ssun' : It's your cousin who's single-handedly made crap out of the world of K-pop.

  Kim Joo Won : I don't need you to play the same tune as me. You say you're his producer.

  Han Tae sun 'Ssun' : As producer it's my job to make him rely on accurate evaluations.

  Kim Joo Won : Then if this outfit distresses you, it means you're looking at the world through distressed eyes. This means you can't form valid opinions with such sorry eyeballs as yours.

  Han Tae sun 'Ssun' : You want to argue fashion with a man whose style sense got him work as a professional model?

  Kim Joo Won : Do I look like someone with time to discuss trivialities with you? I own a department store.

• Moon Boon-Hong : [phoning]  It's Mom. About that fireman you inquired after, do you still wish details about him?

  Kim Joo Won : Yes. What did you find out?

  Moon Boon-Hong : No, I knew of him before, but I was afraid of it upsetting you. You see... he passed away.

  Kim Joo Won : Why? Was it... because of me?

  Moon Boon-Hong : Hear me through, please. He was a widower firefighter... Gil Ik Sun, by name. He passed away leaving behind a daughter. You already know her: Gil Ra Im. She's probably before you right now, observing you.

  Choi 'Oska' Woo Young : [seeing the seriousness that's come over him]  What's wrong? Who's on the phone?

  Kim Joo Won : [ignoring Oska]  Please continue.

  Moon Boon-Hong : You'll know all this again when you recover your memories, but... that scheming girl used her father's death as an excuse to get close to you. To make you cling dearly to her, she used her dead father to ensnare your sympathies and lock you in tight with guilt. Oh, son, I pray even now your sense of family duty will someday be enough to see through her scheme, Kim Joo Won.

• Kim Joo Won : [finding Kim Sung-Oh rather odd]  Divine intervention got you hired.

• Kim Joo Won : [reading]  "Then the Little Mermaid turned away to disappear as bubbles, to be gone forever; but at that moment, the prince realized the truth and said to the princess, 'Is this the best you can do? Are you sure? You don't think we can do better?' and broke off their arranged engagement. He then tried to assist the Little Mermaid, but she, knowing enough of bubbles to invent the air bubble washing machine, had became filthy rich. The prince, meanwhile, went broke due to his unrestrained investment habits, so he became the Little Mermaid's lowly secretary Kim, by and by, and happily lived a long, boring, un-extraordinary life." What is this? What crazy fool bothered to write down this silly thing? Huh? But this is my handwriting.

• Moon Boon-Hong : Upon hearing that you got all your memories back, your mom was so happy.

  Kim Joo Won : Really? ARE you happy? You're not running scared?

  Moon Boon-Hong : [hiding her sudden alarm]  No... because I trust in my son.

  Kim Joo Won : I also trusted in my mother, but we both know she's been very atrocious lately. While you've been scrupulously unjust towards that girl and towards me, most of all you've been unjust towards yourself. How could you tell me such a boldfaced, injurious lie?

  Moon Boon-Hong : So what should that lie matter? She wouldn't stop taking away my son - she left me with no choice?

  Kim Joo Won : You're wrong. Although your reasons weren't always in the right, in all previously misguided actions, you more or less always maintained your dignity, and I could respect you for that; but, mother, in this last situation, you threw away that dignity, along with your son.

  Moon Boon-Hong : Kim Joo Won...

  Kim Joo Won : So from now on, I don't plan on living as a mother's son.

  Moon Boon-Hong : KIM JOO WON!

  Kim Joo Won : I'm really sorry, mother, but I've lived as your son for thirty-four years; now, for the rest of my life, I will live only as that woman's husband.
