(Episode 53)
What did you think about that made you pretend to read a book?
Do I have to report every thought I have to you?
Does it make sense for a couple to sleep in separate rooms because you're tired?
We have so many rooms. Do we really have to use the same room?
You should sleep nice and comfortably here.
I'll sleep on the second floor. I want to buy some things and listen to music.
I'm going to live comfortably as I wish.
While thinking about your old love?
What?
Where are you thinking of moving to?
Jong Gwon will probably find us a place to live.
I haven't heard anything about it.
Really?
Since you get a salary and don't have any expenses, you must have savings.
You could use that money to find a rental that fits your means.
How could we make a living?
Well, Jong Woo is a driver, and Jun Young has a job.
You have a job too.
The three of you all have income, so wouldn't you be able to afford food?
Afford food?
Has Jong Gwon really not brought up finding us an apartment?
If you're curious, go ask him yourself.
It just takes one moment to be kicked out.
Did you think you'd be able to celebrate if you picked on me?
Did you think it'd be enough to go to Gyung Soo...
and get him to say he doesn't want to be adopted by us?
Why are you so short-sighted?
I'm not numb.
Your brain sure is.
I never thought Jong Gwon would do that.
What's so special about being brothers?
You had a son and then bragged that the family inheritance is all yours.
Great job.
Even if they leave now, I'm worried about them.
Jong Gwon is still trying to live on the second floor.
I've heard a lot of couples live in the same house but on separate floors.
I guess that's happening to me.
I guess so.
Tell Jong Gwon to get us an apartment.
How could I dare ask for that with everything going on?
Then what are you going to do?
Are you going to take us out to live on the street?
You have some savings from your salary.
We can't touch that!
Go ask him to get us a rental!
You do it.
What did you just say?
Is Jong Gwon here?
Yes.
Can I make it for you?
I'm fine.
Jong Gwon, where should we go to live?
Go somewhere you want to go.
We need money to go somewhere we want to go.
Do I have any of your savings?
Does my face look like a bank account?
Is that why you lost the money by gambling?
I was the one who gambled,
but Min Gyung and Jun Young need somewhere to live.
Why do I have to take responsibility for your wife and kid?
You've changed.
I'm sick of filling a bottomless vessel.
You have a habit of relying on me.
Now it's time to try living according to your means.
In our attempt to remind Jong Gwon of his past love,
Sook Jung wasn't the only one to suffer consequences.
My brother doesn't care about me anymore.
I can't believe I married someone like you.
What are we going to do now?
What do you mean?
We just have to loiter here.
If we loiter here, do you think he'd really get someone to force us out?
What?
"Just kill us, then." We have to lie low.
Are you serious?
Instead of joining for meals,
we should just live like someone hiding in the basement...
and appear like ghosts to get food before disappearing again.
As long as we don't get caught by Jong Gwon, we'll be fine.
You're out of your mind.
Then Jong Gwon might pity us and let us eat at the table.
My goodness. I guess I'm going to reach Nirvana.
Min Gyung, why are you standing there?
If you have anything to ask of me, please let me know.
Just sit down and eat.
As of today, my family will eat separately after you finish your meal.
You should ask Young Shin to make cockle bibimbap sometime...
and ask her if she's interested in adding it to the menu.
Cockle bibimbap? Why that all of a sudden?
If the customers like it, I want to release it as ready-made food.
Okay. I'll ask her.
I have no doubt that she'll come up with a superb recipe.
Did you know that Young Shin is in a relationship with Jun Young?
You told me something similar before.
I was against it before, but I realized I couldn't stop my son.
Would you be happy if she were to join the family as my daughter-in-law?
What else could I ask for?
- Right? - Still,
wouldn't that be something for Jun Young to decide on his own?
You never know what will happen in a young person's life.
Jun Young.
There's a way I can get you to be the heir again.
I'm not interested.
Put your life on the line to get Young Shin back.
I can't get her back even if I risk my life.
You can't even do that?
You always chatted her up in the kitchen.
I was just allowing myself to be used for a reason.
- What? - Please leave. I have to work.
Did you call me?
Yes. Open this.
What is this?
I bought you a watch.
Since you're the head chef of such a large restaurant,
you should at least wear a watch like this.
Open it.
I don't need to open it. You can wear it.
Wait.
Don't take personally what I said to you before because of Jun Young.
You've let it all go, right?
Yes, I've let it go.
Jun Young is so heartbroken because he isn't over you.
I can't just watch him like that as his mother.
Would you consider getting back together with him?
No, I'm sorry.
Then what is it? Were you playing with his heart?
That's not what it was, but I apologize if that was the result.
Don't apologize. Just date him.
Mom.
Young Shin, go back to the kitchen.
If my mom says things like this to you, don't just stand there. Tell Mrs. Choi.
I'm sorry.
What are you sorry for?
I was too caught up in my own feelings.
Still, I feel sorry.
You helped me learn to work hard, so thank you.
It feels nice to live with purpose.
I felt a bit anxious each day when I was rebellious.
You were a nicer guy than I expected.
Thank you for saying that.
If I hadn't lost my position as the heir, I wouldn't have let you go.
Of course, I know that wasn't important to you.
Let's stay friends.
Don't forget that I'm older than you.
Okay. I guess I'll address you like an older brother from now on.
You guess so?
How stubborn.
There are a lot of customers. Aren't we going to hire another employee?
Isn't it hard to do it on your own?
What's so hard about it?
The robots do it all, so I'm fine on my own.
Work hard.
See you later, Jun Young.
You work hard too, Young Shin.
By the way, why does Jong Gwon...
trust Young Shin so unquestionably?
Young Shin seems reliable to elders.
But Jong Gwon hasn't met Young Shin before.
You're right.
Was her name Kim Ji Sun?
Yes, her name was Kim Ji Sun.
You saw her? Where?
No. It could be someone similar.
Young Shin. What kind of person do you want your dad to be...
if he were alive?
I'm not sure.
I wish he was rich!
Wouldn't it be a little unlikely that he's rich?
Why?
Why can't a rich man...
raise his own daughter?
You're right.
If Young Shin's dad had a lot of money,
he would buy us a lot of tteokbokki.
And buy us toys.
I just wish he wasn't a teacher.
So what if he's not rich if only I could meet him?
Even if I can't, I wish he was alive.
If you can't meet him, it's no use that he is alive.
No. I can go see him in secret.
In secret?
Hey. It seems just like a fairy tale.
I can be the heroine of a tragedy.
I'll secretly hide and shed tears, watching my dad.
I'm so jealous.
It sounds fun!
Hey. How could that be a fun story?
It's a sad story.
I think it would be fun too!
Can't I hide with you?
You'll get caught...
as you sniffle.
I wish I could have a dad...
to watch in secret.
Come on. Go out and meet her.
You should, for the sake of Se Jin.
Gosh. Enjoy your dinner.
Fine.
Sit down and eat.
I saw the picture too. She looked all right.
One of the worst things in the world is...
men getting older and living alone. It's harder than you think.
Speaking of which, shall we look for Gyung Chul's bride?
Why am I the target now?
I almost got humiliated by saying that Gyung Soo should get married.
Why is that humiliating?
As a widower, you'd be a disturbance to Jung Hoon when he gets married.
I can't help it even if I'm a disturbance.
It's his fate.
There are too many men around me that need to get married.
I should get acquainted with a dating agency.
Speaking of which, you should start with Oh Bok.
No thanks!
Why is it suddenly me now?
I have Da Jung.
Don't say that, even if it's a joke!
You'll ruin the atmosphere while eating.
We're okay.
I'm calm now when I hear that.
I'm sorry to be calm, Oh Bok.
It's okay.
I need to protect the world.
With that mindset, I'll become rice.
Even if it makes me look foolish,
as long as the Diner family can live in peace,
I don't care if I become rice or a side dish.
I really don't know how we left the world in your hands.
But Yong Goo, why are you not eating and just sitting there?
I'm thinking.
Thinking of what?
You have concerns in your life?
Of course, I do.
Why? Are you also thinking of how to protect the world?
Stop joking.
I'm serious.
Do you really have something in mind, Yong Goo?
I do.
Tell me, then.
I can't.
Did anyone ask you for money?
Never give them!
You'd never be able to get it.
It's not like that.
As long as it's not that.
Then what is it?
You can't even tell me?
I can't say it, especially to you.
Are you going to work?
Yes. I'm getting more work as it's getting warmer.
Then, you must be busy.
Why? Do you have something to say?
I don't!
Goodbye.
Okay.
Yong Goo, what are you doing here?
Are you busy?
I'm not. Come in!
What's wrong? You didn't even eat well.
No matter how much I think about it,
I think it's best...
to ask you about this.
Right.
Tell me.
It seems like you can keep a secret.
Don't worry and tell me.
Have you watched a movie with a woman?
A movie?
I've watched it when I was young.
Then, well...
Do you like that person...
if you ask someone to watch a movie?
Who and who?
The person who asked to watch a movie first,
and the person who she asked to watch a movie together.
That's not it. The person who asked to watch a movie...
No, the person who asked...
Why is this so confusing?
So when person A asks person B to watch a movie,
does A like B?
Are you asking this?
Who is person A?
There's...
one person over there.
Then, please tell Oh Bok.
I'll tell him that.
Yong Goo. What brings you here?
It's a secret!
All right! I'll keep it a secret!
What is it?
Tell me right now.
It's a secret.
Did you come now?
I saw Da Jung.
She saw me too.
But she just walked past me.
I didn't say anything.
Still, you should've asked if she was doing okay.
It's no use.
It could help her to get over you.
Then I'll talk to her next time.
If only Da Jung calms down,
the earth will be at peace.
Make cockle bibimbap.
Why all of a sudden?
If it tastes good, it'll be served as a new menu.
And it can be made into ready-made food at the head office.
Really?
Officially, I developed it and passed it on to you.
I will be the developer.
You're okay with that, right?
Yes.
Try it.
It's delicious, just as I thought.
She made it the way I taught her.
You...
taught her the recipe?
Do you want me to verify it through Young Shin?
No, that's not necessary.
You can release the ready-made meal with me as the developer.
I knew it ever since she said Young Shin was a gem full of potential.
She wants to take full advantage of Young Shin.
Call another chauffeur for customers...
who will be picky.
I should separate Young Shin from her no matter what.
Especially, I never want to have customers who are drunk.
It's a hassle to receive the fee from them.
What is it this time?
I'm here to tell you something useful.
You don't have to call someone up.
I'd have to listen to see if it'll be useful.
I won't say it if you're going to call.
But it'd be a loss if you don't know about it.
Then you can just leave.
I'm not interested nor want to hear about it.
Did you know that Young Shin...
is being exploited under Mrs. Choi?
What did you say?
Mrs. Choi...
was reinstated as CEO thanks to Young Shin.
Have you heard?
I heard Mrs. Choi is back at the restaurant.
It's thanks to Young Shin.
Young Shin confessed what she told me was a lie.
That's what brought Mrs. Choi back to the restaurant.
Is it even true Young Shin is the head chef?
What use would that be?
She's been developing recipes as she was told to...
and handing them over to Mrs. Choi.
The cockle bibimbap that Young Shin took pains to develop...
is about to be released as read-made food...
under Mrs. Choi's name.
Why won't you listen to what I say?
What do you mean?
Did you want to help Mrs. Choi so she'd adopt me...
and I could get hold of their fortune?
Did Manager Seo come by?
Why would I get hold of that family's fortune?
That's stealing. It's a scam.
Do you think I raised you with all my heart so you could be a fraud?
Mr. Jung.
I told you I won't ever see you again if you quit to help her out.
So you wanted to stay there and let her prey on you?
Did you do that so I could take that family's fortune?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jung.
Because she gave birth to me,
I couldn't say that she was my biological mother...
when President Kang sent someone over.
But if you do this, I should say I'm her son to protect you.
Mr. Jung.
Do you want to see me finish off my own birth mother?
No, Mr. Jung.
I'm so sorry.
Do you think that's a way to repay me?
How could you be shameless so you could repay me?
If you live with that mindset, you're going to ruin yourself!
I can't stand that.
I don't care that she's my birth mother.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jung.
Can't you see how much I cherish you?
Did I ever ask you to repay me for bringing you up?
I've been so cautious and fretful,
hoping you could have a good life and be happy.
Were you going to trade my concerns for you with that family's fortune?
How could you do that?
President Kang ordered to submit...
the recipe for the cockle bibimbap to the headquarters.
Now that I have Young Shin at the palm of my hand,
things are moving swiftly.
What is it? I didn't call you in.
I need to tell you something.
Did you think of a better idea?
I won't be able to assist you anymore.
Why not?
Manager Seo came by the Diner.
What?
I don't think...
the ready-made meal can be released under your name.
How could you say that now?
In any way,
I'm sorry.
Sorry doesn't cut it.
I'll buy you a house, so leave this restaurant.
A house is not enough.
I'll buy you two houses, so get out of this restaurant.
I won't leave even if you bought us a whole building.
What?
I can't leave for the sake of my late in-laws.
Whether it's adopting a son or someone else,
it's not going to be Gyung Soo.
Why not?
You'd know...
better than I do why, Mrs. Choi.
Mrs. Choi?
She doesn't have to repay me, to begin with.
But why would she repay me by helping you?
Because I gave birth to you.
If I didn't have you, you would not be in this world.
If you didn't exist,
who knows what would've become of her?
It's the other way around.
What do you mean?
If it weren't for her, I would've met President Kang...
when you got married to him and finished you off.
She showed up around that time.
I raised that little girl with a sincere heart,
so I couldn't make someone's life fall apart.
I let you go.
You raised her sincerely?
You should...
be repaying her.
Don't drag her into your life.
If you do, I'm going to finish you off even though you're my birth mother.
Finish me off?
I wouldn't...
change her for anything in the world.
Are you sure...
you're not in love with her?
What?
I can't leave you be.
(A Good Supper)
I'll be the one to leave.
I'll buy a house and get out.
Do whatever you want!
You won me over with a sweater.
I'm not upset anymore.
Please accept me as your best pupil.
Best pupil?
Make me the princess of Korean cuisine.
- I'm sorry. - About what?
Now you can date Jung Hoon and feel at ease.
I don't know. I actually feel calm.
People in this village are odd.
Didn't anyone say a word when you live with a grown woman?
