很长时间以来 He was just this kid in my head
他在我心里都是当年那个小男孩 for such a long time.
然后他就变成了视频里的一个画面 And then he was just this image on my laptop.
但现在他是真实的人 And now he's a physical person.
所以我有点激动 It's really intense,
但我觉得这不算”吸引“ but I don't think that that's attraction,
我只是很想他 I think I just missed him a lot.
想念首尔 I think I miss Seoul.
他想你吗？ Did he miss you?
他想念的应该是那个儿时玩伴 I think he missed the 12-year-old crybaby
那个12岁的爱哭鬼 he knew a long time ago.
你以前是个爱哭鬼？ You were a crybaby?
是啊 Yeah.
我只要一哭 他就得站在旁边看着 Most of the time, he'd have to just stand there and watch me.
他什么时候回去来着？ When is he leaving, again?
后天早上 The morning after tomorrow. Mm-hmm.
你生气了？ Are you mad?
没有 No.
我觉得你生气了 It feels like you are.
我没有权力生气 I don't have a right to be mad.
为什么这么说？你当然有权力生气 What do you mean? Of course you do.
不 我... No, I...
那家伙坐了13个小时的飞机来这里 That guy flew 13 hours to be here.
我不会告诉你 I'm not gonna tell you
你不能见他之类的 that you can't see him or something.
他是你小时候的初恋 He's your childhood sweetheart.
而且你又不会跟他跑了 And it's not like you're gonna run away with him.
你要跑吗？ Are you?
当然了 Definitely.
我要扔下这里的一切... I'm gonna throw away my life here and run away...
...跟他回首尔 ...with him to Seoul.
你难道不了解我吗？ Do you even know me?
我才不会为了一个男人缺席排练 I'm not gonna miss my rehearsals for some dude.
我知道 I know.
我了解你 I know you.
怎么了？ What?
我在想这真是个好故事 I was just thinking about what a good story this is.
-我和海成的故事？ -对 The story of Hae Sung and me? Yeah.
我竞争不过 I just can't compete.
什么意思？ What do you mean?
儿时的初恋在20年后重逢 Childhood sweethearts who reconnect 20 years later
然后意识到彼此才是天生一对 only to realize they were meant for each other.
我们可不是什么天生一对 We're not meant for each other.
我知道 I know.
在故事里 In the story,
我肯定是那个 I would be the evil white American husband
棒打鸳鸯的混蛋白人老公 standing in the way of destiny.
闭嘴吧 Shut up.
再想想我们的故事就太无聊了 What do you not like about it? Our story's just so boring.
我们是在艺术家驻留计划认识的 We met at an artists' residency.
我们上床是因为当时两个人都单身 Slept together because we both happened to be single.
然后发现都住在纽约 We realize we both live in New York,
所以为了省房租就同居了 so we move in together to save money on rent.
结婚是为了让你拿绿卡 We got married so you could get a green card. So...
这么一说可真浪漫 Oh, you make it sound so romantic.
对吧 我就是这个意思 Right, that's what I'm saying.
在故事里 I'm the guy you leave in the story
你前任来找你的时候 我就是那个被抛弃的角色 when your ex-lover comes to take you away.
他不是我前任 He's not my ex-lover.
如果你当时在驻留计划里认识了别人呢？ What if you met somebody else at that residency?
如果当时有其他的纽约作家 What if there was another writer from New York
也跟你读过同样的书 who had also read all the same books you had,
看过同样的电影 and watched all the same movies,
能给你的戏剧提供有价值的建议 could give you useful notes on your plays,
也能听你抱怨排演 and listen to you complain about your rehearsals?
生活不是这样的 That's not how life works. I know.
是啊 Yeah.
如果呢？那跟你躺在一起的会不会是他？ But wouldn't you be laying here with him?
这才是我的人生 我跟你在一起 This is my life, and I'm living it with you.
你开心吗？ Are you happy with it?
你离开首尔的时候 想过的 Is this what you imagined for yourself
是这样的生活吗？ when you left Seoul?
我12岁的时候？ When I was a 12-year-old?
对 你当时憧憬的生活是这样吗？ Yeah. Is this what you pictured for yourself?
在东村的小公寓里... Laying in bed in some...
跟一个写书的犹太男人 tiny apartment in the East Village
躺在同一张床上？ with some Jewish guy who writes books?
这是你爸妈对你的期望吗？ Is that what your parents wanted for you?
你是想问 你 亚瑟·扎图兰斯基 You're asking me if you, Arthur Zaturansky,
是不是我父母移民梦的答案？ are the answer to my family's immigrant dream?
是啊 Yeah. Wow.
这就是现实 This is where we ended up.
这就是命运 This is where I'm supposed to be.
好吧 Okay.
怎么了？ What?
你让我的人生更精彩了 It's just that you make my life so much bigger.
我想知道我对你是不是也如此 And I'm wondering if I do the same thing for you.
是的 You do.
我只是个来自韩国的普通女孩 I'm just a girl from Korea, you know?
嗯 Okay.
你忘了我爱你吗？ And you're forgetting the part where I love you.
没有 I don't forget that.
只是有时候很难相信 I have trouble believing it sometimes.
你知道吗？你说梦话的时候 Do you know you only speak in Korean
只说韩语 when you talk in your sleep?
-是吗？ -嗯 I do? Yeah.
从来不说英语 You never sleep talk in English.
你只用韩语做梦 You only dream in Korean.
我都不知道 I didn't know that.
嗯 Yeah.
你从来没跟我说过 You never told me that.
有时候我觉得这很可爱 Well, sometimes I think it's cute.
但有时候又觉得有点怕 Sometimes, I don't know, I guess I get scared.
怕什么？ Scared of what?
你用我无法理解的语言做梦 You dream in a language that I can't understand.
就好像你内心有一个位置 It's like there's this whole place
我永远无法走进去 inside of you where I can't go.
这可能就是我学韩语的原因 I think that's why I've been trying to learn Korean,
虽然我知道你觉得这很讨厌 even though I know it's annoying for you.
你想了解那个梦中的我？ You want to understand me when I'm dreaming?
嗯 Yeah.
肯定都是没意义的话 I'm sure I'm just saying gibberish.
-嗨 -嗨 -Hey. -Hey.
昨晚回家顺利吗？ Did you get home safe last night?
嗯 Yeah.
-抱歉我来晚了 -没关系 Sorry I'm late.
你吃过了吗？ Did you eat something?
没有 No.
吃吧 Eat this.
给我的？ Is it for me?
我昨天想问你来着... I wanted to ask you yesterday...
你现在想得什么奖？ What prize do you want to win nowadays?
嗯？ Hmm?
你小时候想得诺贝尔奖 When you were little you wanted to win the Nobel Prize,
12年前想得普利策奖 and 12 years ago you wanted to win the Pulitzer.
现在呢？ What do you want to win now?
最近没想过这种事了 I haven't thought of things like that recently.
是吗？ Really?
那现在想想吧 Then think about it for a moment.
肯定有你想得的奖 There must be an award you want.
托尼奖 A Tony.
你真的跟我记忆里的一模一样 You really are exactly the same as I remember you.
还是个疯子？ Still psycho?
嗯 还是个疯子 Still psycho.
往左一点 A little bit to your left.
一 二 三 One, two... three!
再来一张 One more.
别离那么近嘛 Why are you taking it so close up?
好吧 你往后 Fine. Go back a little bit.
转到背面了 She's turned against us.
等等 Hold on.
你好年轻 You look young.
为了给我绿卡 Because of my green card,
我们比计划提前结婚了 we got married a little earlier than planned.
他知道我来吗？ He knows I'm coming over?
当然了 Of course.
他知道我是谁吗？ He knows who I am?
当然了！ Of course!
他想见你 He wants to meet you.
进来吧 Come in.
你好 很高兴见到你 Hello. Nice to meet you.
你好 我也很高兴见到你 Uh, hi. Nice to meet you, also.
他韩语很好哎 His Korean is good. Hm? Oh...
没有啦 No.
你饿了吗？ Are you hungry?
你饿了吗？ Pasta? Yeah. You like pasta?
饿吗？ Hungry? Yes.
嗯 Okay. Okay.
你想吃什么？ What would you like to eat?
-意面？
意面？你喜欢意面？
你们今天干什么了？ What did you two do today?
自由女神像 The Statue of Liberty.
你们去坐轮渡了 You took the ferry.
嗯 Yes. Yeah.
嗯 很好 It's, um, nice.
我没坐过 I've never been.
-什么？ -真的？ What? Really?
嗯 我从来没去坐过 Yeah, I've never actually been there.
我们真的没一起做过轮渡？ Have we seriously never been there together?
真的 No.
我24岁的时候 When I was 24 year,
我…呃… I, uh... Um...
服兵役 Oh, military service.
哦 Right.
你知道韩国男性都要强制服兵役吧？ You know how Korean men have mandatory military service?
嗯 你爸爸说过 怎么样？ Yeah, your dad talks about it. How was it?
你喜欢吗？ You like it?
不喜欢 Oh. Military service? No.
但是兵役和工作一样 Uh, but military and work, same.
一样？ Same?
都有上级 You have a boss.
韩国没有加班费 There's no overtime pay in Korea.
这里有加班费 对吧？ There's overtime pay, stuff like that here, right?
但是在韩国 加班是正常的 In Korea, you work overtime all the time,
没有补贴 but there's no overtime pay.
太惨了 -Really? -Mm. It's, uh, very hard.
很辛苦 then you do your own work, Hmm. Uh, work. Work is hard.
工作很辛苦
精神上还是身体上辛苦？ and then you can go home. Hard physically or mentally?
都有 Uh, yes. Uh, both.
身体上辛苦 Physical, very hard.
精神上 Uh, and, um... Hm. Mentally.
我精神上很强大 Physically, or mentally? Mentally, I'm strong.
你精神上很强大？ You're strong mentally?
没错 Yes, right.
你移民是正确的 It was good that you immigrated.
我也觉得 Mm. I agree.
韩国对你来说太小了 Korea is too small of a country for you.
没法实现你的追求 It's not enough to satisfy your ambition.
我很高兴能再见到你 I'm glad to have seen you. Hm.
我也是 Yeah.
也谢谢你把我介绍给你老公 And thank you for introducing me to your husband.
我能看出来他很爱你 I can tell he really loves you.
嗯 Hmm.
我喜欢他 我不知道这会让我这么难受 I didn't know that liking your husband would hurt this much.
是吗？ Yeah?
嗯 Hmm.
我们不再联系的时候 When we stopped talking,
我真的很想你 I really missed you.
你想我吗？ Did you miss me?
当然了 Of course.
但你之后就认识你老公了 But you met your husband then.
你也马上找了女朋友 You got a girlfriend then, too.
对不起 Sorry.
没关系 It's okay.
这次见到你 Seeing you again
来到这里 让我有很多奇怪的想法 and being here makes me have a lot of weird thoughts.
什么想法？ What kind of thoughts?
如果我12年前来纽约会怎么样？ What if I'd come to New York 12 years ago?
如果你没有离开首尔呢？ What if you had never left Seoul?
如果你没有离开 If you hadn't just left like that,
如果我们一起长大 and we just grew up together,
我还会喜欢你吗？ would I still have looked for you?
我们会不会恋爱？分手？ Would we have dated? Broken up?
结婚？ Gotten married?
会不会有孩子？ Would we have had kids together?
类似这种想法 Thoughts like that.
但是来了之后我知道 你必须离开 But the truth I learned here is,
因为这就是你 you had to leave because you're you.
我喜欢的也是这样的你 And the reason I liked you is because you're you.
而这样的你注定是会离开的 And who you are is someone who leaves.
你记忆中的娜英 The Na Young you remember
现在并不在这里 doesn't exist here.
我知道 I know.
但是... But...
那个小女孩还在 that little girl did exist.
虽然她没有坐在你面前 She's not sitting here in front of you,
但她是真实存在的 but it doesn't mean she's not real.
20年前 20 years ago,
我把她留给了你 I left her behind with you.
我知道 I know.
而且虽然我当时只有12岁 And even though I was only 12,
但我爱她 I loved her.
真是疯子 You psycho.
我觉得我们前世肯定有很深的羁绊 I think there was something in our past lives.
不然现在怎么会坐在这里？ Otherwise, why would we be here together right now?
但是这辈子 But in this life,
我们没有能 we don't have the In-Yun to be
再续前缘的因缘 that kind of person to each other.
因为现在 20年来 Because now, finally,
我们终于第一次 we're in the same city
来到了同一座城市 for the first time in 20 years...
我们跟你丈夫坐在一起 We're sitting here with your husband.
这辈子 你和亚瑟才有夫妻因缘 In this life, you and Arthur are that kind of In-Yun to each other.
你们有八千层的因缘 You two have the 8,000 layers of In-Yun. He's talking about you.
对亚瑟来说 To Arthur,
你是那个留下的人 you're someone who stays.
你觉得我们前世是什么关系？ Who do you think we were to each other in our past lives?
不知道 I don't know.
也许是没有结果的婚外情 Maybe... an impossible affair?
比如王后和国王的臣子 Between the queen and the king's henchman?
也许我们因为政治联姻 Or maybe we were forced to live together
被迫在一起 in a political marriage,
所以毫无感情 and we were awful to each other.
双双出轨 Cheat on each other a bunch.
恶语相向 Say hurtful things to each other.
也许我们只是曾经在火车上坐在一起 Or maybe we were just sitting next to each other on the same train.
为什么？ Why?
因为恰好买了邻座 Just because that's what our tickets said.
也许 Maybe,
我们是一只鸟 we were just a bird
和清晨托着小鸟吟唱的树枝 and the branch it sat on one morning.
抱歉 我们光顾着自己说话了 I'm sorry we speak alone.
不会再这样了 Uh, we will stop.
没关系 It's okay.
你们好久没见了 You haven't seen each other in a long time.
我从来没想过自己会参与这种戏码 I never thought I'd be a part of something like this.
嗯？ Hm?
跟你坐在一起 Sitting here with you.
你知道什么是因缘吗？ Do you know what in-yun?
嗯 第一次跟诺亚见面她就告诉我了 Yeah. Nora told me about it when we first met.
你和我 You and me.
对 你和我也有因缘 Yeah. Yeah, you and I are in-yun too.
我很高兴你来了 I'm really glad you came here.
这是正确的决定 It was the right thing to do.
我送他去优步车那里 Mm. I'm gonna walk him to his Uber.
好 Okay.
幸会 Uh, nice to meet you.
彼此 Nice to meet you, too.
希望你能来韩国找我 Uh, come visit me in Korea.
肯定会的 Definitely.
我马上就回来 I'll be right back.
好 Okay.
车快来了吗？ Will it be here soon?
两分钟 Two minutes.
喂！ Hey!
娜英 Na Young.
嗯？ Hmm?
也许这也是前世 What if this is a past life as well,
也许我们已经 and we are already
在来世成为了对彼此很最重要的人 something else to each other in our next life?
那我们算什么？ Who do you think we are then?
我不知道 I don't know.
我也不知道 Me neither.
再见了 See you then.
