You're the one Jung Hoon likes.
You knew all this time that I was acting like an idiot,
and you just watched.
- Da Jung. - I waited for you to tell me.
Were you going to make me into a complete idiot?
Da Jung. It's not like that!
I had no idea the person who'd make a fool out of me...
would be you, Young Shin.
Da Jung.
You...
should've just gone to the orphanage.
I'm not letting go of Jung Hoon even if he drops out of med school.
I can't let you, of all people...
steal Jung Hoon from me.
Because I was the poor Diner kid?
Because I relied on everyone's help to live here...
for fear of going to the orphanage?
Does it hurt your pride to lose Jung Hoon to me?
No.
Because in my 20 years of life,
I've thought of you as my sister for 12 years.
If this happens,
then I'll lose Jung Hoon,
and I'll also lose you.
Do you think I'd have let...
any other girl invite Jung Hoon over and cook for him...
since high school?
Because it was you,
I was never suspicious.
This is a complete betrayal...
of my whole life.
All at once, I'm losing our friendship,
my trust in you,
and my trust in the world...
that I should be a good person.
Da Jung!
You...
should've just gone to the orphanage.
Did Da Jung leave?
Did she know...
that Jung Hoon likes you?
In the end, we came this far, and it's over.
Well,
everyone has to deal with this once.
I can't believe I'm the reason...
that Da Jung has to be in so much pain.
Did you tell Da Jung...
that you like me?
Did she know?
Was it Oh Bok?
Well, that's good, actually.
We're almost clear.
It's not easy, but it won't be much longer.
Da Jung said she wouldn't let you go even if you drop out of med school.
She's just saying that out of anger. She'll get over it soon.
I don't think it's just anger.
Da Jung has no choice but to put everything on the line for you.
You and I are Da Jung's whole life.
Why are you saying that?
You can't hit and fight people even if it's in the name of justice.
I can become a gangster for Da Jung!
What?
Da Jung is the only one in the whole world...
who asked me to be her friend first.
You're still awake?
I'm going to sleep in the second floor bedroom for now.
- Honey. - I think it's good...
not to see you when things are not good.
Were you planning to lie to me forever?
Jong Gwon, why are you coming down from the second floor?
Did you sleep on the second floor?
Yes.
Honey!
Did you know that your brother slept on the second floor last night?
He probably got kicked out for snoring too loudly.
That's not how it looked at all!
Just get up!
Why can't I sleep as I wish?
Why did Jong Gwon sleep on the second floor?
Did you have a fight?
We're not young kids.
Did something happen between you two?
Please, just shut your mouth and mind your own business.
You're going to have an upset stomach.
You make such a scary face while you eat.
What does it matter to you? Just eat.
What do you think...
about assigning the doenjang stew broth to Young Shin again?
What do you mean?
You said Sook Jung's stew is tastier.
Would I tell you to serve a tasteless stew to our customers?
What is he talking about?
I want to resign from my position as the CEO.
How could you hurt my dignity in front of the family...
by not consulting with me beforehand?
I won't stop you.
What?
The restaurant is important,
but don't you think trust in a marriage is more important?
With you trying to outdo a lowly intern...
by switching the broths, I'm nervous having you as the owner!
Honey, what's wrong?
It's not like Jung Hoon will stay in med school if I lie around.
I might get fired from being the store manager,
so do I have a choice?
Good idea.
Come eat breakfast.
I'm not hungry.
Are you really going to stay with Jung Hoon if he drops out?
It doesn't matter whether Jung Hoon is a med student or not.
But are you sure you can love him when he loves someone else?
That'll just be more painful for you.
It'll be more painful...
if I lose Jung Hoon.
It won't be much of a big deal later in your life.
The girl that Jung Hoon likes...
is Young Shin.
That's why Jung Hoon is dropping out of med school.
He feels sorry...
to you, Mom, and me.
Why did you put yourself in this position by lying?
Do you think I'd even dream that your uncle...
would ever taste Young Shin's stew?
Where could he have tasted that stew?
That's what I want to know.
Starting today, the doenjang stew broth served last with rice...
will be Ms. Kim's duty again.
Give it your all today.
- To your places! - Yes, chef!
What do you mean?
Exactly as you heard it.
Do you have any questions?
Did Mrs. Choi approve this?
Just focus on making the anchovy broth.
Does it make sense that he said he liked Sook Jung's stew...
and now tells her to change it to Young Shin's?
Exactly.
Sook Jung definitely lied.
No way!
Don't you think she lied...
that she was the one who made Young Shin's stew?
It doesn't make sense otherwise!
That's true.
I didn't call you in.
Who told you to come in?
Did you by any chance lie to Jong Gwon?
What?
Sook Jung, don't you know his personality?
He never forgives a liar.
Don't you remember when Jong Woo lost money gambling,
he got caught by making an excuse about my family,
and was sent away to parking duty?
I suppose that's why he wants to sleep in separate rooms.
Jong Gwon can't bear to see someone he doesn't like.
He just can't stand the sight of them.
That's enough.
At this rate, you'll leave this family...
before you even adopt a son.
What?
This is all thanks to Young Shin's stew.
How could Young Shin bring out such a flavor for someone so young?
We need to get her on our side whatever we do.
If I could make someone who's a better cook than Sook Jung...
take my side,
it'd be like having an army by my side.
I wonder.
Would that army...
fall for your trick so easily?
She's only a 20-year-old girl.
Hey, you're here.
Have a seat.
Do you want to have tea?
I already had mine.
It's okay.
Jung Hoon, are you dropping out of medical school...
as you feel sorry for Da Jung and us?
No, I'm not.
I wasn't a good fit,
and it was hard to keep up.
You can be honest with me.
You were recognized as being gifted since you were little.
Do you think I'd believe you when you say med school is not for you?
Surely medical studies must be challenging,
but a kid like you dropping out because it's hard to keep up?
How can I take your word for it when I know you so well?
You should continue your studies.
Da Jung has us.
It might be hard for her now, but she has us to fall back on,
so don't worry too much about her.
Mr. Lee.
I wish you'd scold me instead.
You are like a son to me.
I've always felt sorry for you...
as you tried your best under difficult circumstances.
I hoped for you to become happier than anyone.
Have some tea before you go.
I should get going.
You must be here as it's your day off.
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Is Mr. Jung out?
He went to the marketplace.
Do you have anything to tell him?
I don't think we'll be able to come eat here from now on.
Mr. Lee.
It must be a hassle to call us every day to ask if we'll come.
Please tell Gyung Soo...
we appreciate him for making us the hearty meals at a low price.
I'll come to talk to Gyung Soo another time.
Did you hear something from Da Jung?
You know that I'm fond of you, right?
Of course.
When you first came, you were so little...
that I didn't know what to do with you.
I was relieved to hear that Gyung Soo decided...
to take you in and felt a sense of responsibility as well.
Thank you...
for growing up to be so kind and strong.
Mr. Lee.
It's been a while, Mr. Lee.
- Hello. - Good to see you.
I'll see you again.
I'll see you at dinner.
Here's something for the side dish.
Let me do it.
I told him I'd see him for dinner, but he didn't even answer.
He won't be coming for dinner from now on.
Why not?
We'll be making spicy fish roe soup for dinner. What do you say?
That'll be good.
The deliveries aren't in yet, right?
What's wrong?
Mr. Lee won't be coming for meals anymore.
Really?
That must be why Mr. Park looked sullen.
I can't imagine a dinner table...
where Mr. Lee, Se Jin, and Da Jung would never come.
You want me to look for another diner?
There's none in town that serves dinner with such great care.
I can just make do with anything.
It won't be for a day or two,
so you can't go to a different one each time.
In that case, I can eat at home.
Are you asking me to even make dinner after work?
I'll do it.
What? Why so suddenly?
What do you mean by that?
Cute Da Jung.
Chatting up over dinner with Se Jin after a hard day at work...
was my pleasure.
She'll come by sometimes.
Seeing her occasionally...
and meeting over dinner each evening is not the same.
Please have your meal, Mang Soon.
There are no people like them.
How could anyone treat the kids like their own...
even if they were a teacher?
They'd forever be grateful.
I feel the same way too.
I think I'll eat later.
Why are you getting up? Aren't you eating?
Why that jerk.
Get inside and eat your dinner.
It's all my fault, so how could I eat?
Did you make a fuss about your love without being prepared for that?
How can the rest of us eat when you leave like this?
I'm sorry. I just can't eat.
When it gets slightly uncomfortable, you turn away and avoid it.
How will you have your love with such a weak mind?
All you did was stirring things up.
What are you doing there?
Well...
Where have you been?
I went to the convenience store to have ramyeon with Dad.
Right.
Se Jin must be at the shop.
She'll take care of it.
I'd be better at making ramyeon than you or Mr. Lee.
After running away to Seoul, I had it until I was sick of it.
I guess you had your dinner.
No, not yet.
You have rice on your chin.
You want to raise a rabbit so much you're about to dream about it.
Why are you smiling?
Is it okay if you read our journals?
I didn't tell anyone and only wrote it in my journal.
Why? Would you rather I didn't read it?
Journals are supposed to be a secret.
You can't keep secrets from me.
Why not?
I am responsible for making sure that you grow up well.
Like a dad?
Right, like a dad.
Then I shouldn't write in my journal that my wish...
is to have a young and handsome dad.
How come?
Is it so I won't be hurt as I'm ugly?
I was good-looking when I was younger.
I saw your picture in Da Jung's photo album.
Weren't my looks good enough?
Relatively?
Relatively? You're teasing me.
I really like you, Mr. Lee.
Really?
Did you finish making the rabbit hutch?
It's done.
Mr. Lee! Uncle caught us a rabbit.
My gosh.
Look, it's so cute.
What shall we name it?
- Milk. - That's nice.
Oh Bok already gave it a name.
What is it?
Oh Bok's brother Sabok.
Hey. Grasswalk would be better.
How could you name it Sabok?
Wow. Look at that.
I can't believe how cute it is.
It seems we'll have to...
eat somewhere else.
It won't be easy...
for Mr. Lee, Se Jin, and Da Jung...
to have dinner when we're at the table.
Why didn't I think of this before?
Where will you have dinner then?
I'll have to look for another diner.
You having dinner at another diner?
And every day?
That's unlikely.
I bet you'll make do with ramyeon four nights a week.
Still, we can't stop Mr. Lee and Se Jin...
from coming to the diner because of us.
That's far from returning their favor.
Will you sleep upstairs tonight as well?
Things are starting to look up and look at him.
Gosh. He reeks.
I think I lost my wallet, Mom.
Why did you drink yourself into oblivion?
I must've paid it for the chauffeur service...
since I had it back then.
Why do you have this?
- I took out all the credit cards. - What?
Mom.
You won't get it back unless you come to work part-time.
No way. Give it to me already.
If you don't want to get on the same boat as me,
you can think of me as a mom and rely on me.
Pardon?
I heard you grew up without a mom.
It's what I heard from the people in that town.
I'm only telling you now,
but I liked you from the first time I saw you.
I wished I could have a daughter like you.
Thank you for thinking highly of me.
I should get back in as I'm busy.
I'll have someone else do the dishes. Let's talk.
You walked in here in less than a day after I took away your card.
Who is that?
What does it matter to you?
I'm so thirsty.
I'll tell them to get a drink.
It's okay. I'll go and choose it.
Hey.
Gosh. You startled me.
What's your name?
What? Who are you to barge into the kitchen?
Aren't you curious about my name?
I'm Kang Jun Young.
What an arse. Hey, I'm busy here.
Are you rich?
I am.
Don't you like money?
You're a total nut.
(A Good Supper)
- I've thought through this! - That's never going to happen!
How could you compare Young Shin and me to Mom and that man?
Will you be able to go there and eat with a smile on your face?
What did you just say?
I gave it a lot of thought.
I worry a lot about you.
I have to leave the town.
No.
She is so unbending as if she's the master.
She's the kind who'd give her mother-in-law a harsh married life.
