Give Young Shin to me.
I'll raise her well and give her my inheritance,
my everything.
What?
Then wouldn't that resolve your grudge against me?
You two...
are a bit pathetic.
It seems like you'll do anything for each other,
but in reality, you ignore what you need to do...
for each other.
Do you understand?
If Young Shin were really doing her best for you,
when I said I'd adopt you,
she should've convinced you no matter what.
Do you think I'd play the part of your child if she convinced me?
Is kneeling before you and begging for your forgiveness...
the only way for me to pay back your woes?
I say I'll give you everything, but you refuse,
and you two will only be satisfied if you see me ruined, right?
Tell me when you're older,
if you think getting revenge is so important.
Her pain runs so deep...
that she can't compromise with people like you.
Who wouldn't like wealth and honor?
But there are things in this world...
that are unforgivable, even if it means death.
Okay.
Then follow your way.
Don't join my family.
Are you going to block Young Shin's future too?
Of course, she'll say no because of her loyalty,
but of all the things you can do for her,
there's nothing better than that.
I'm sorry to say.
You're telling me to give my most beloved person...
to my enemy who killed my parents?
You...
are so cruel.
There are many crueler things in the world.
Jung Gyung Soo said he couldn't come?
He just said he'd be here in 30 minutes.
Okay.
He doesn't seem...
like someone who'd change his mind so often.
Are you considering adopting Young Shin?
When I was at the Yunghwadang,
I flattered Gyung Soo's grandmother as much as I could...
to learn cooking.
I was confident that I learned her cooking skills,
but despite being praised as the leader of Korean cuisine,
I've never been said to have carried on the master's authentic flavor.
Doesn't everyone in the business know about this complex of mine?
It's the same case with the doenjang stew and the beef hot pot.
Young Shin can make it, but I can't.
Jung Gyung Soo learned the art of his grandmother's cooking...
and taught it to Young Shin.
That means that they don't teach the secrets...
to people outside the family.
I understand why you'd want to have Young Shin.
If Young Shin becomes my adopted daughter,
the world will know that her talent is all mine.
Go home early if you're tired.
I'll tell them that you're feeling unwell.
I won't be able to rest even if I go home,
and even if I come out and work,
I can't get focused.
Honestly,
I get along with you much better than with Jung Hoon.
I think of you like a father.
When I'm staring into space as you're working out here with me,
you must feel uncomfortable and wonder what's going on,
but you're not even asking why.
I figured Jung Hoon's mother visiting...
left you with a lot of mixed feelings,
so I didn't ask.
Thanks.
It's no problem.
Just rest over here. I'll do it.
Here we go.
Kids' flea market?
What's a flea market?
A flea market is when you take things you don't use...
to a place like a park...
and sell or trade them with the community.
It's something we can do to reuse items.
Do kids do the selling?
The purpose is...
to help kids realize that others can use the things they don't need,
which teaches that things are valuable,
and also to teach economic concepts to kids.
That sounds fun!
If there are toys you don't play with anymore,
or clothes that are too small, bring them out.
What should I sell?
You bought most of your things from the junk shop,
so you probably don't have anything worth reselling, right?
Exactly.
What can I take?
The only toys I have are ttakji,
and kids will bring things like robots and blocks.
You can take clothes you grew out of.
Who would buy this?
Grandma only buys clothes that are similar to yours.
Then what will you do?
All I have is junk from the market...
that's ready to be thrown out.
Every time, I'm the only one who looks like a bum!
Jeez!
I'm just going to get twisted.
- Please buy our toys. - I hope you sell a lot.
Da Jung's going to earn the most money!
Why do you have so many toys?
I have this many left at home.
Are you sure you can sell your favorite books?
I memorized them all from reading them so much.
Jung Hoon,
don't you love that globe?
I memorized it too...
from looking at it so much.
Where's Oh Bok?
Oh Bok! Did you come empty-handed?
I knew it.
Ta-da!
Surprised?
Oh, my! What's that?
That's cool!
Did you take that without telling your grandmother?
Hello!
Oh Bok, where did this come from?
Uncle gave it to me.
- Your uncle did? - Yes.
Come and look!
We have so many good things for sale!
Come over and buy something!
Come and look!
Oh Bok is good at this.
- Let's do it too! - Okay.
Let's make some money today!
- Come and look! - Come and look!
We have so many good things for sale!
Come over and buy something!
- Come and look! - Come and look!
Jung Hoon, do it with us!
Why are you standing there like you're better than us?
Fine, then.
I can't be the only one not to sell something.
It's important to shake your legs,
like Oh Bok over there.
- Come and look! - Come and look!
We have so many good things for sale!
Come over and buy something!
- Come and look! - Come and look!
Oh Bok brought this.
Why did he take that?
I gave it to him.
That's the only thing your late father left for you,
and you gave it to him to sell?
What's the use of that...
if Oh Bok ends up twisted?
You'll do anything for your nephew.
There's nothing more precious to me...
than Oh Bok.
Even my late father...
would think the watch isn't as important as Oh Bok.
Oh Bok, give this back to your uncle.
No! I already gave it to him.
Uncle, keep it for now and give it to me later.
It's okay.
I was going to give it to you anyway.
Just take it.
Uncle.
Come here for a second.
Why?
Uncle,
I love you!
Me too,
Oh Bok.
I love you!
I earned this money!
Hurry and put it in your piggy bank.
I just want to look at it some more.
It's so amazing!
Put it back in and have your snack. Aren't you hungry?
Mr. Jung, I want to be rich!
Rich people aren't always happy.
It's better to be rich even if I'm a little unhappy.
Still, you're not necessarily unhappy because you're rich.
A kid shouldn't say that.
It's because it brings my late grandma to my mind.
She cried every time she got clothes for me to wear.
It's okay to get second-hand clothes.
Mr. Lee said...
it's better to give it to someone who needs it than to throw it away.
If we were rich,
I don't think she would've cried...
while getting clothes for me to wear.
That's why I want to be...
rich if I can.
If my grandma had lots of money,
could she not have passed away?
I don't think so.
We have medical insurance in our country.
It's not common not to be treated because they have no money.
But why do I think like this?
Maybe it's because my grandma always said money is her enemy?
Young Shin said that?
She did.
She's smiling brightly now,
but I feel like she has a memory of poverty, so I feel sad.
Unfortunately, one of the things kids learn the first...
is poverty.
Is that so?
Even in the first grade of elementary school,
they know their household conditions.
It's a shame...
that there are children who have to learn poverty...
before they learn about themselves.
I'm home.
Did you just finish work?
You worked hard.
Why do you look sad?
Did something happen?
Did you meet Mrs. Choi again because of the beef hot pot recipe?
I gave that to her myself.
Because of Da Jung?
Until when will you keep sacrificing?
Da Jung was hurt more than I thought because of Jung Hoon.
You're fond of me, right?
Of course. Why would you ask that?
Then can you do me a favor?
You bet.
What is it?
Let Mrs. Choi...
adopt you.
What?
If she adopts you, she said she'll give everything she has to you.
What random thing are you talking about suddenly?
From her point of view,
I think she judged that there's no safer way to protect herself.
If she makes me her adopted daughter,
you or I will be forever silent on what she did.
That's what she's saying.
Don't think emotionally.
Think more deeply.
She wants to screw Manager Seo over...
and cover up her past forever by adopting me.
She thinks the whole universe revolves around her.
It all has nothing to do with you.
How come it doesn't when it concerns you?
I always thought...
that blessings should burst like fireworks for a child like you...
who tries to live bright and properly in a difficult situation.
I've already had firework-like blessings.
I met you and grew up being loved.
What more blessings do I need?
I said it was a favor.
Mr. Jung.
As I thought it was something I had to do for you,
I didn't actually think too long.
Mr. Jung.
In life, you always have to be humble to yourself.
Think about your mother,
who would've regretted leaving you behind.
You must not think rashly...
when facing a gifted opportunity.
So are you telling me...
to be the daughter of your parents' enemy...
and act as her child?
Are you crying, honey?
Everything in this world is so sad.
We made you dumpling soup.
It's sad to live with a man...
who feeds me a bowl of dumpling soup and thinks his job is done.
Isn't this why my life is so empty?
We should be grateful for not being sick at our age.
Why are you making a big deal because of menopause?
What's that? A big deal?
I can't even say anything as you pick on everything.
I think I'll get divorced while trying to pass your menopause.
Do you want to divorce me?
Then do it.
That's what I wanted. Let's do it!
You're getting mad again.
This is a serious illness.
Honey. There are some seriously-ill people that think every day counts.
Are you sick?
What?
Are you hiding your sickness?
You said you didn't want to see me.
It doesn't matter what you don't want to see or what you need.
What's that?
So I have to stay alive until I retire?
So that we can get paid monthly?
I didn't mean that.
When I retire, you'll throw me out.
You're not really sick, are you?
My heart hurts.
Do you think only women suffer from menopause?
He's afraid that I'll throw him out.
I'll send you out once Da Jung gets married.
Why do I hate him so much?
I can't sleep because I have insomnia,
yet you're sleeping soundly.
I don't even want to see the back of your head sleeping!
I tried the beef hot pot this morning.
What's gotten into you?
Please try it.
Okay. Let me try it out.
You finally found the taste.
It really tastes like Ms. Kim's hot pot.
How did you make it taste the same?
I've been cooking my whole life.
Won't I make the same taste if I focus on it?
It's great, Sook Jung.
You sure are amazing.
Great job.
She's got a natural talent for cooking.
Just because you're talented doesn't mean you're a qualified CEO.
Try to work with a more careful mind.
I'll keep that in mind.
Step out, Jun Young.
Come on. I'm eating.
We need to talk.
It will only take ten minutes.
Then we don't need Ms. Kim.
Isn't that right, Sook Jung?
What is that about?
The restaurant is messy because she's being so cheeky...
for cooking well.
Other staff members are complaining a lot.
Really?
Anyway, we'll have to sort out Ms. Kim first.
Can we fire staff without good cause?
There is a good cause.
Full of it, for sure.
All the staff saw her flirting with Jun Young and giggling...
in the kitchen during working hours.
Is that true?
We can have the staff as a witness.
If that happened, you should've warned him first.
Jun Young is so naive that he fell for her.
That cunning girl got the naive boy out of his mind.
Even before learning this business, she's only interested in her gains.
Tell me what this is about.
I will tell you later.
Why would you push it back?
We should get it solved since we're on the topic.
There's an order to everything.
An order?
We have a valid reason to fire her this time.
She disregarded and confronted her senior staff...
and was insubordinate.
What will you give me if I get rid of Young Shin?
Anything.
I told you I'd do anything.
I will record it.
You're recording?
I don't trust you anymore.
I will keep everything recorded.
If I fire Young Shin,
will you step down from the restaurant and be a homemaker?
Why aren't you answering?
Sook Jung.
I'll ask you again.
If I fire Young Shin, will you have Jong Woo as the parking assistant...
while you stay put and be a homemaker?
You know...
You may leave.
I'm only making you an offer.
Do you want to see me lose my mind?
Did you not hear me?
All right. Record it.
What's there I can't do if you get rid of Young Shin?
Fine. I will be just a homemaker.
If I fire Young Shin,
Jun Young will quit work right away and go clubbing.
Will that be all right?
That's not the issue.
Jun Young is the only successor of this family.
That's not going to change.
For now, I should block any chances of Young Shin doing something.
When Young Shin is kicked out of the restaurant,
I will adopt her.
Sorry?
Then you'll be satisfied.
If I adopt her, she'll be cousins with Jun Young.
How could he put a move on her then?
That's how you block any chances.
If I adopt her, wouldn't you be glad too?
We were done with that talk. Why bring that up again?
Our deal was broken.
I gave up adopting and was in the same boat as you.
And what did you do?
You pushed me into a pit,
so you could save yourself.
So you are thinking of adopting Young Shin?
It doesn't matter if it's a son or a daughter.
I'll raise her well and hand down the family heritage.
Sook Jung, you can't do this to me.
Try to wrap your head around it, but things won't work for you.
Do you know why?
Because you have Jun Young as your son.
What?
They say if you have no luck with your husband,
so it is with your son.
Sook Jung.
I have a pile of documents to sign.
You can leave now.
My goodness.
I give in.
She's going to adopt Young Shin.
What?
Did she talk about adoption again?
This is all because of you.
Why are you blaming it on me?
Because Jun Young is like that as he takes after you.
Then whose fault is it?
Are you saying...
my son taking after me is my fault?
We're done.
Wait for a bit. You'll get another chance out of this.
Isn't that the best feature of your life?
When things are murky, suddenly you find a way out.
When you think it's over, there's a twist of events.
How could you never be serious?
Salt is important when you make a broth.
It should be a clean and tasty salt that is not bitter.
If the salt is bad,
you can't make it good even if you use the best ingredients.
I see.
So salt is that important.
Thank you, senior.
It's late. I should get going.
Okay.
It's not even 11 o'clock.
Geez. I need to get some fresh air.
Why are you still up?
I couldn't sleep.
You too?
Mr. Park seems to be struggling these days too.
So he's struggling too.
You should've come inside. Why are you sitting out here?
I was frustrated.
Shouldn't you ask the person...
who lives with your mom...
how much time she has left?
Are you telling me to meet that man?
He'd know the most about what condition your mom is in.
You should just think about her now.
Young Shin.
After sending me away when I was a kid,
do you think my mom also had a hard time?
Of course.
Would she have missed me?
That's why she came by too.
Yes, several times...
although I didn't see her.
You looked at her while hiding yourself.
I did.
How sad must she have felt to leave...
without seeing you?
Until now, I only received tuition and never met her.
I guess Mom couldn't bring herself to do it.
She didn't ask me to see her either.
Young Shin.
Do you know what I'm thinking now?
Did my mom fall ill...
because I was so cold to her?
That's what I'm thinking.
Da Jung.
Da Jung!
You left...
your phone at home.
I did.
Are you guys...
seeing each other now?
No, it's not that.
I told you how hurt I was.
It's not like that.
Did you want to make me a cook by patronizing me...
and start things with him?
That's not true.
Da Jung.
(A Good Supper)
You're two-faced, you know.
Da Jung.
Why don't you just go out with him?
How could you say that?
That's what I think. I'm just being honest.
- I need to tell you something. - To me?
All right. Let's get this over with this time.
You've become a shell of yourself because of me.
I wish to be forever separated from Young Shin.
When I am adopted, I want to do something first.
Do you...
like Gyung Soo too?
What did you say?
