You've probably already seen the movie but the main character (who has a very similar hairstyle to the nurse, heh) is imprisoned in a room just like that one, for 15 years. He has no idea why he's held captive and he's fed mandu every day. Like jessica said it's probably to show that the nurse gets punished for what she did to Min-yul's mother. And if her story goes the way Oldboy's does -- it's one hell of a comeuppance! Yeah, the end skit is pretty much directly from Oldboy.

The beginning made me laugh, how the mother bit him and how much of a struggle match the two had. Then it switched to those moments that made me cry =( the ending was great, with Mu Yeol comforting Eun Jae at her toughest moment. The care-taker lady locked in the room made me laugh XD the fried mandu made the moment even funnier (that's one way to get rid of the unwanted mandu).

But I held back for fear of sounding like some kind of voice-fetishist (after repeatedly gushing over Lee Seon Kyun from Coffee Prince). haha. And good call everyone about the nurse lady! I totally didn't make that connection since she looks so different. Plus I was thinking more about what the Oldboy reference could mean than what the skit meant to the story. I can't quite tell if the actress is the nurse lady, but it probably is. Lesson of the day? Never mess with a gangster's mama. I was just also thinking that Min-chul’s voice was pretty sexy.

It's a clever way to imply that she gets her comeuppance, without actually showing Min-chul or any of his cronies beating her up. (However much she deserves it, I don't know if the image of gangsters beating up a woman would've been something the audience in general would be able to accept.) I've never seen the movie but it has to do with some guy being trapped and tortured/beat up, I think? Right? So it assures the audience that there were dire consequences for Ebil Nurse, but without any direct blood or gore. And throws in a movie reference. At least that's what I got from it. (:
