(Episode 108)
- Good morning. - Did you sleep well?
Are you making chicken rice porridge?
This morning, I thought I should feed you this for some reason.
Do you like chicken rice porridge?
When I didn't sleep well...
or had something bothering me the night before, you would make me that.
Did you think I didn't get a good night's sleep last night?
I had a good sleep.
That's good, then.
Sit down.
- Try it. - Of course, it must be good.
You must've been busy this morning.
It's okay.
When I was little, you asked me what the expression...
"giving porridge to the dog" means.
You said it's because it takes a lot of work to make porridge.
You don't remember, right?
I'll remember someday.
Try it.
How come your food still tastes the same?
I'm glad.
Help yourself and take care.
Why?
Did it sound a little cold?
I'm not going.
I'm going to my dad's house,
but I'd never go anywhere leaving you behind.
Keep eating. It'll get cold.
You're enjoying it.
You always made...
good food for me.
You would watch me enjoy it.
Did I?
You always made sure to give me good food.
I won't be able to forget you.
Well, I'm disappointed that you slept well last night.
I hope you rather get your memory back soon.
"Rather"?
Are you saying you'd rather go back to the way it was...
than being able to do nothing?
I was afraid I'd be sad leaving you, but you're making me laugh.
I'll come often.
Please do that.
I'll always be here.
Welcome.
I knew you were coming, but I was still waiting for you.
Welcome. I was waiting for you.
How have you been, Mrs. Choi?
Mrs. Choi?
I'm your mom. Call me Mom.
How have you been, Mother?
I told you to call me Mom.
I'm happy to have you here.
We didn't even go to work waiting for you.
This really is your house, Young Shin.
Young Shin.
I'll call you Young Shin.
Welcome, Young Shin.
Thank you, Uncle Jong Woo.
I like the sound of it.
My heart feels warm to hear Young Shin call me Uncle Jong Woo.
Of course. She's your blood.
I always felt close to her.
You're just saying that.
I mean it.
Doesn't she look a lot like me?
She resembles Jong Gwon a lot.
She has big eyes and looks exotic.
- But he's short. - Hey!
Now that I look at her, she kind of looks like Jong Woo too.
I'm glad she didn't take after his lack of backbone, though.
Don't I look the most like her?
That's true. You're tall and have big eyes.
Young Shin, so you and I were cousins.
You were really part of my family.
Let's have lunch. I made it.
Let's go to the kitchen.
I can't believe I'm eating with my daughter at the table.
It's such a big blessing I've never even imagined.
It feels weird to keep hearing "my daughter."
Would you give me some time to get attached to her as my daughter?
That's right. At least from now on,
let's cherish and be affectionate to each other.
I don't know how much longer I can live, though.
Why would you say that?
Take good care of the house and the company, Young Shin.
President Kang.
I mean, Dad, I have something to tell you.
- What is it? - Many entrepreneurs in other countries...
leave a moderate amount of fortune for their children to live by...
and give the rest back to society.
What are you talking about?
You don't want to take the company?
You don't have to force yourself to take it. Gyung Soo can do it.
There are a lot of unfortunate kids in the world.
Some kids are abandoned by their parents and live with their grandparents.
Some don't even have grandparents, so they grow up at a children's home.
Of course, not all of them are unfortunate,
but it's such a pity that they suffer from poverty...
before developing a personal identity.
So if you inherit me something,
I'll donate it all to the community...
for kids growing up in difficult environments.
That way, people in the world remember our company as a philanthropic company.
Spending the fortune that my grandparents worked hard for on something helpful...
might be more meaningful than keeping it.
Young Shin's mindset is different from ours.
The privileged get to feel obligated to take care of the world.
My dad is saying something mature now.
In a way, it's natural to work hard and keep some fortune to get by with...
and spend the rest for a good cause.
I can't tell you I'll do that right now.
I'll leave everything to you, so take care of it yourself.
In a word, what a joke.
You're in no position to say that.
I have my share in that. She can't donate it all to the community.
You want me or yourself to get nothing.
Why? Do you think it's a waste?
Even if President Kang leaves you everything,
I'm legally eligible to get a share.
How impudent you are.
You will if you resist getting a divorce.
- What? - You abducted me, locked me in,
and tried to kill me at the end. I clearly remember that.
Mr. Jung is the one with the memory loss. Not me.
I vividly remember you threatened to kill me if I got on your nerves.
Do you have proof?
Should I ask Dad if I need it?
If you want to win a minimum share at a trial later,
you'd better stay as Dad's wife.
So now, apologize to me for killing my mom.
I will not apologize until I die.
You can't tell President Kang.
Why? Because of Gyung Soo.
You love him.
I'm his mother.
He doesn't want to be your son.
How brazen of you to keep insisting.
How do you know what he wants?
If you're holding out here for Mr. Jung,
you should get out of here because I will take care of him.
- What? - I'll inherit Dad's fortune,
and I'll give Mr. Jung more than you could give him.
Don't worry about him and leave his house.
- I can't do that. - Of course, you can't...
because you don't love your child.
You only think of him as a useful tool you can abuse just because you had him.
The worst people are those...
who think of their children as their means of happiness.
What?
If you separate a mom dog and its puppy, she looks for it all night long.
In that sense,
- you're worse than a dog. - I'm worse than a dog?
There are many people who are worse than animals.
I was willing to keep my mouth shut as long as Mr. Jung lives happily here.
How did you corner him?
Why do you imagine he would shudder...
at your name without having his memories and run back to the Diner?
So, am I worth less than a dog?
That makes me feel sorry for dogs.
Even dogs who have spent their whole lives protecting their owners...
wait for their owners to come home before they die leaning on the owner.
In that sense, you're worth less than a dog.
Did you think I'd forget you killed my mother, tried to kill me,
and used your son as cannon fodder to try to cover up your crimes?
If you want to die, keep talking.
So, stop this and apologize.
Even if I'd say it to the whole world, I won't say it to you.
Why? Because you ruined my son's life.
You're shameless.
Compensate for my son's life,
you shameless, presumptuous thing.
Should I kick you out tonight?
Or, would you prefer tomorrow morning?
What?
They say that enemies in the past life meet as stepmother and stepdaughter.
She must have a deep grudge against you.
Just let it go and move on.
How can I let it go?
- She's said all kinds of awful things. - Really?
This isn't your average person.
She may seem so civilized, but she's vicious to certain people.
Young Shin, I prepared this expensive fruit for you.
I'm your mom now, so I should take care of my daughter.
Have some.
Thank you. I'll follow you like your own child, Mother.
Now that I have a daughter like you, I can't ask for more.
- Thank you for being so kind, Mother. - You're welcome.
All right, you should try to get along.
Sook Jung, you never liked Young Shin.
Who says I didn't like her?
I didn't know she was his daughter.
Now that I know she's his daughter, I'm full of newfound love for her.
- Are you really full of newfound love? - Why are you laughing like that?
- It sounds like you're mocking me. - Why would I do that?
How could I dare mock you?
I'm feeling tired. I'm going to bed.
You've been through a lot since you met Young Shin again.
I'll take him in.
Okay.
It's fine. You can go.
- Will you be okay? - I'm fine.
Now that I've met you, I would be at peace even if I pass in my sleep.
I'll stay by his side, so go rest.
No, it's fine.
Until I fall asleep, Young Shin, can you tell me some stories?
Any story is fine, so just leave when I fall asleep.
Okay, Dad.
Nobody is as shameless as your sister-in-law.
How can she talk to Young Shin like that with such pretension?
I'm glad she's at least pretending. It'd be worse if she openly hated her.
What? She's full of newfound love?
Fine, I lost.
Still, hypocrisy is better than being malignant.
How is it better?
Looking at Young Shin's face, I can tell she won't be a pushover.
I think the real fight will start soon.
When we were exchanging gifts, Yong Goo bought a pillow for Oh Bok.
I guess the blanket seller wanted to sell pillows and said it's a good gift.
I can't believe that.
Oh Bok gave it as a gift,
and Da Jung asked him if he bought her a bag of flour.
That sounds just like Yong Goo.
How could you give a pillow the size of a flour sack to a kid as a gift?
Da Jung was so embarrassed that she hit Oh Bok over the head with it.
- And they ended up getting married? - Exactly.
That's funny.
- Do you have any other fun stories? - Of course, I have countless stories.
Oh Bok always had a runny nose and wiped it on his sleeve.
When I was young, there were so many kids like that.
So, in the winter, all the boys would have...
frozen snot all over their sleeves.
Mr. Jung gave me a handkerchief daily.
I see.
I'm so grateful to him.
If he sneezed, Da Jung gave him tissues so I wouldn't lend my handkerchief.
She only gave him exactly two pieces.
She sounds so stingy.
Then, one day, finally, Oh Bok brought tissues,
- but it was a roll of toilet paper. - Really?
Unbelievable.
Oh Bok was so excited,
so he gave them some whenever anyone sneezed,
but Jung Hoon was so embarrassed that he ran away.
I had no idea that Da Jung and Oh Bok would get married.
It was always their fate.
He won't let me near him...
so that he can spend more time with his long-lost daughter.
Are you jealous?
It's different from how he liked her before he knew she was his daughter.
- I'm sure. - It's quite a painful relationship.
Stepmother and the daughter of the first wife.
Well, she's not even the daughter of his first wife.
The audacity she has, showing up out of nowhere.
(Director Kim Young Shin)
I saved all the materials you need.
- Just so you know... - It's fine. I can figure it out.
- You can leave. - Yes, ma'am.
(Company Value Analysis)
Are you already here with the delivery?
Young Shin is coming today, right?
Yes, she said she's coming.
I need to make something Young Shin likes.
Young Shin likes everything you make for her.
Really?
- See you later. - Okay.
Miss Young Shin, you're here.
You'll just call me Young Shin in front of everyone, right?
It's just the two of us still.
- Miss Young Shin, you look sharp. - Please.
- Have you been well? - I missed you so much my eye is red. See?
- Go to the ophthalmologist. - You're no fun.
Go on inside.
I came right on time since I heard you're coming.
- Are you happy to see me? - Sure, I am.
- You look like a different person. - Thanks.
You'd slap me if I say I missed you, right?
Don't you know I know you? You won't listen if I tell you not to.
You've gotten more cheery.
I guess you like being the daughter of a rich family.
Let's go on inside, Jung Hoon.
I'm going now that I've seen you. I don't have time. I need to study.
Did you really just come to see me? You should stay for dinner.
- Why are you going? - I've seen her, so now I'm going.
- I have a busy life too. - Go in and stay for dinner.
It's not like anyone's waiting for me.
All right. I'm going.
When will he become a human?
Young Shin, you look so sharp. Your aura is so different.
Let's go in.
It's so hard to see my wife even though we're newlyweds.
Se Jin keeps watching until three in the morning.
When I go in after finishing my studies, she's asleep already.
She sleeps without waiting for me.
Of course, I'm asleep. Will I be taking exams?
I'm not sure if I got married or enrolled in a boarding school.
How's your morning sickness? I'm sorry I can't be there.
Mr. Jung is working hard for me.
If she asks for something, she changes her mind about the time it's ready.
I guess your morning sickness is getting worse.
Just 30 minutes before, I would die just to have something,
but if he makes it for me, I can't eat it. What's wrong with me?
Still, Gyung Soo never gets irritated and does everything she asks.
When the baby is born,
I'll tell the baby that Gyung Soo fed it when it was still in the womb.
I'll make sure to say that.
Thank you.
Have you been well, Young Shin?
You mustn't feel lonely as you live with Mang Soon.
Of course, she doesn't leave me to feel lonely.
Have you been well, Yong Goo?
You don't seem like our Young Shin.
You've become so elegant.
Young Shin is quite the beauty, indeed.
Now that you're in a suit, you look so fine.
Why aren't you eating well?
I don't have an appetite since I didn't get enough sleep.
I'll watch over Oh Bok tonight, so you get some sleep.
How can we send him to college if we're not devoted enough?
If you're done eating, get back to your studies, Oh Bok.
I'm not done eating, though.
Aren't you eating slowly on purpose?
Please give me a break, Mother.
It's his fair share of break.
We should at least let him eat.
Hooray!
She must finally be pregnant.
Doesn't she have an upset stomach from lunch?
What? You think she has an upset stomach?
Do you really just hold hands at night?
Mother, what are you talking about when the kids are listening?
What do you mean by kids?
He got married and will soon become a dad.
I'm sorry when you're all eating.
It's okay.
But did you get an upset stomach after eating something?
No,
I think I'll have to go to the hospital tomorrow.
Is that so?
We'll go right away.
We should go tomorrow.
Applause.
This is the time to applaud.
Congratulations, Yong Goo.
I'm so proud of you, Pil Sun.
I'm proud of my son.
Look at how dazed Yong Goo looks.
I hope tomorrow comes soon.
We now have two things to celebrate.
Come by anytime you're craving anything.
I'll make you whatever I can.
Isn't our Diner going to become specialized for expectant mothers?
I'll be seeing my grandson and great-grandson in the same year.
How did things turn out like this?
Give me a call when you get back from the hospital too.
There are always things to smile about in the Diner.
I'm so thankful, Pil Sun.
I'm always grateful to you, Mother.
How precious you are.
Everything you do is precious.
Thank you,
honey.
I'm proud of Yong Goo the more I think about it.
Why would you be so proud?
It's natural for a married man to become a dad.
Don't you remember the first time Yong Goo went on a date?
Both Gyung Chul and you said you couldn't talk about such things,
so even though I was embarrassed,
I told Yong Goo how to hold a girl's hand.
Yes, you did.
Back at that time,
I wondered when he'd get married...
and have a baby that he can show to Mang Soon.
It all seemed bleak. I mean it.
Mang Soon must be overjoyed.
I'm proud of him the more I think about it.
Next year, we'll get to see two cute babies.
They must be adorable.
I hope next year comes soon.
I can't...
believe I'll have a baby too.
The Lord loves me, after all.
The Lord must cherish me.
That's what I feel the more I live.
Yong Goo.
At one time,
I wondered why someone like me was born.
Still, I vowed to work hard to live for my mother's sake.
After my mother passes away,
I thought I'd leave too.
And I'll do my best until then.
I'll do my best and leave when I have to.
I even thought that way once.
Honey.
I can't believe how blessed I am to have you as my wife.
When I heard Da Jung would be having a baby,
it made me start laughing, and I couldn't be happier.
But after hearing that Pil Sun got pregnant,
my eyes welled up with tears.
I didn't think I could die leaving Yong Goo behind.
The saddest person in the world...
must be mothers with sick children.
They must have a different mindset about the world.
Still, Yong Goo is a healthy man.
You don't have to worry about Yong Goo now.
I know.
How can everyone be there like family...
to share happiness and sorrows together?
I'm thankful I grew up in such a place.
It's late. Aren't you going to bed?
You go to bed first. I want to talk with Young Shin more.
It's fun, and I'm delighted to hear anything that Young Shin tells me.
Se Jin, you can go to bed now.
It's two in the morning.
Why would I go in? Keep studying.
I won't sleep and study,
so please go to bed now.
Why would you sit there and keep dozing off? I feel so bad.
You don't have to be. I'm wide awake.
What are you looking at?
Get back to your studies.
Mother.
You drooled under your jaws.
What?
Go ahead and study.
Yes, Mother.
The Korean restaurant is out of the crisis now.
In terms of sales, other restaurants can't compare to it.
It's showing a comfortable lead.
Is that so?
Now that the Korean restaurant is in good shape,
how about having me work in the president's office?
If you're not going to return to the company,
we can't keep your spot vacant forever.
What about the Korean restaurant?
We can have Sung Chan take care of it.
The new menus we have are traditional Korean dishes.
There is a recipe book passed down to the women in Gyung Soo's family.
Gyung Soo's grandmother gave it to me.
With that, Sung Chan will be able to manage it.
Is that right?
Then you should go to work at the president's office.
I think differently.
Now you should leave the company to professional executives.
Having only someone in the owner's family run the business...
is outdated and obstinate.
What?
Leave the president's role to a professional executive...
and have some rest, Mother.
You must've gone through a lot so far.
Have some rest?
(A Good Supper)
Apologize for killing my mom before it's too late.
Let me be clear. I can't give you much time.
Do you want to die?
Your uncle doesn't have much time left.
I only need to have Young Shin gone.
What are you thinking?
She looked murderous.
That's horrible to hear.
Why did you call in Manager Oh?
I called him as I have something to say when all the family is present.
It's all a lie. Everything he said is a lie.
He's lying about everything.
Thank you for keeping the music box with you.
