Nora: There is a word in Korean: In-Yun. It means "providence" or "fate". But it's specifically about relationships between people. I think it comes from Buddhism and reincarnation. It's an In-Yun if two strangers even walk by each other in the street and their clothes accidentally brush. Because it means there must have been something between them in their past lives. If two people get married, they say it's because there have been 8,000 layers of In-Yun over 8,000 lifetimes.
Arthur: You believe in that?
Nora: Believe what?
Arthur: That... you and I knew each other in another life.
Nora: What, because we are sitting here... at the same table, in the same city, at the same time?
Arthur: Yeah, wouldn't that make this... In-Yun?
Nora: That's just something Koreans say to seduce someone.

There is a word in Korean
00:00:04.092 --> 00:00:05.097
In Yun
00:00:09.055 --> 00:00:10.093
It means providence
00:00:11.084 --> 00:00:14.039
Or fate
00:00:16.031 --> 00:00:17.069
But it's specifically
00:00:17.089 --> 00:00:20.019
about relationships between people
00:00:22.004 --> 00:00:26.057
I think it comes from Buddhism
00:00:27.019 --> 00:00:30.053
and reincarnation
00:00:32.078 --> 00:00:33.082
It's an In Yun
00:00:34.049 --> 00:00:37.087
if two strangers even walk by each other in the street
00:00:38.058 --> 00:00:40.075
and their clothes accidentally brush
00:00:41.083 --> 00:00:42.083
Because
00:00:43.058 --> 00:00:46.063
it means there must have been something between them
00:00:47.017 --> 00:00:48.046
in their past lives
00:00:55.018 --> 00:00:56.089
If two people get married
00:00:58.081 --> 00:01:02.073
they say it's because there have been 8 000 layers
00:01:02.093 --> 00:01:03.098
of In Yun
00:01:04.094 --> 00:01:07.999
Over 8 000 lifetimes
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.006
You believe in that
00:01:28.084 --> 00:01:29.084
Believe what
00:01:31.084 --> 00:01:32.084
That
00:01:33.047 --> 00:01:36.003
you and I knew each other in another life
00:01:37.001 --> 00:01:40.999
What because we are sitting here
00:01:41.039 --> 00:01:44.993
at the same table
00:01:44.027 --> 00:01:46.053
in the same city
00:01:46.073 --> 00:01:48.999
in the same time Mm hmm
00:01:48.001 --> 00:01:50.023

00:01:51.023 --> 00:01:52.999
an In Yun
00:01:53.001 --> 00:01:55.053
Mm
00:01:56.011 --> 00:01:57.062
Mm mm Mm
00:02:00.041 --> 00:02:02.038
That's just something Koreans say
00:02:02.058 --> 00:02:03.091
to seduce someone
