(Episode 59)
Do you really think you can learn to fish by reading a book?
Still, I really want to know the theory behind it.
Isn't it a problem that you always try to learn things by reading?
Do you know why fishing can clear your mind?
Isn't it that after throwing the line and getting lost in thought,
you calm down?
That's what people say if they've never tried it.
It's because you focus your entire mind on whether a fish is biting,
and you spend the whole day like that.
From the start, you never even think about pondering over life or art.
I see so that's why it helps to empty your mind.
It makes your mind go blank.
It must be hard to spend all day not thinking about anything.
Of course.
The brain is flooded with useless thoughts whenever there's a free moment.
It's just like performing meditation.
It is. Spending all day not thinking is training.
It won't be long before you reach enlightenment.
Thoughts are like pollution to the modern person's brain.
I guess you already have.
Go out and turn on the sign.
It's been a long day.
It's nothing much, but please enjoy the meal.
What's the occasion? Is that pureed soybean stew?
I made pureed soybean stew with pork ribs.
Oh, my. Did you buy the pureed soybeans at the market?
I got it from a tofu shop.
Do they still puree it for you?
I tried to pay him, but he didn't accept my money and told me to just take it.
Long ago, when my mother told me to go get a block of tofu in the morning,
I just went to the tofu shop with a big bowl.
Then they'd put a fresh, steaming block of tofu in my bowl.
I ran home so fast with that tofu so it wouldn't get cold.
You went to a tofu shop to buy tofu?
What about the supermarket?
We would use it to make kimchi stew and fried tofu. It was so good.
We all bought tofu once every two days, so they gave us pureed soybeans for free.
But...
what is this supposed to taste like?
It's supposed to taste like pureed soybean. What else?
My mother used to love pureed soybean stew.
Now it's reminding me of her tonight.
I can tell why you made this soup, Gyung Soo.
Why is it?
You're trying to get us talking about the food, right?
The mood has been pretty down ever since Da Jung made a scene.
Was that it?
I was wondering why you made this stew out of nowhere.
I was so worried about showing my face to everyone here.
Why would you worry about such a thing?
I didn't teach her to be like that. I'm not sure why she did that.
It's okay. All kids grow up like that.
How could they only show their good sides?
Oh Bok had his phase when he went around fighting,
and Jung Hoon didn't even look his dad in the eye for a while.
It happens to them all.
I was so embarrassed about what she did, being the daughter of a teacher.
Why are you embarrassed?
Who made you embarrassed?
Gyung Chul? Young man Gyung Soo? Me? Yong Goo?
We all understand. Why are you embarrassed?
How could we only show our good sides in these times?
Thank you for saying that.
Gyung Soo, thank you for taking care of us.
I'm the one who's thankful.
Nobody helps people as subtly as Gyung Soo does.
You'll grow crystals like a monk if you keep thinking so much.
I bet you'll be full of them.
It's okay. We can go fishing.
It clears the mind of all thoughts.
I can't ask for anything better than sitting here fishing with you.
Aren't you hungry? Do you want a lunch box?
What's this? I'm not a kid anymore.
It's a panda. You said you wanted to be a panda.
A white bear would be better.
That's why I packed one more.
Here.
They're filled with stir-fried kimchi.
How could I not like you when you do things like this?
Have some soup first.
Life is good. Why do they want me to get married?
We can just enjoy life, the two of us.
We can't just enjoy life, the two of us.
I keep remembering that he said you aren't lonely because of me.
Let's just fish...
so the useless thoughts can't flood our minds.
Young Shin, why don't you date Jung Hoon?
The spring breeze is making me sleepy.
Keep an eye on my line for me, please.
The development team is pressing me about the bone hangover soup recipe.
Please rush it.
I understand.
What's important is consistently releasing competitive products.
If we finish after releasing a few products,
we'll lose our planning costs and funding and go out of business.
That's true.
We aren't meeting the deadlines like before,
so I'm getting a bit restless.
It's so difficult that we don't have Young Shin at this crucial time.
You need to be cautious.
If you rush to call her back and trigger a disciplinary investigation,
the entire plan will be unearthed by its roots.
If it comes out that you made Lee Da Jung do all this,
it'll really be the end for you.
What brings you here?
I was guessing you'd want to have tea with me right about now.
You came in with tea, so I'll do you a favor.
You'll do me a favor?
If Sung Chan goes to the head office, Jong Woo will be made managing director.
So, make a note that the anonymous letter was a false accusation.
We don't need him to be the managing director.
Then what do you need?
Make Jun Young the head office's food development director.
What would Jun Young even do?
Do other companies expect their heirs to work when they're made directors?
The work is all done by their inferiors.
Won't you do all the work anyway?
Why can't you bring in the person who wrote the letter?
It's anonymous. How could I find them?
I'll find them, then.
I called you because I have a task for you.
From now on, do as I say.
I wrote that anonymous letter.
That doesn't make any sense.
The letter is an accusation of Kim Young Shin and Lee Da Jung.
You're telling me that you wrote it?
You told me to write it like that.
What?
When did I?
Manager Seo said that she had what it takes to get rid of Young Shin,
so she told me to write that letter.
This is unbelievable.
Where did that lie come from?
Why do you think she's lying?
What?
Lee Da Jung, thank you. You can leave.
If you feel it's unfair, then put your job on the line and find the author.
Put my job on the line?
If you still can't find them after putting your job on the line,
I'll have to take Lee Da Jung's confession as the truth.
- Sook Jung. - You wrote it, didn't you?
Don't say such nonsense!
Then find out who it is and bring them to me.
Don't worry.
I'll find out who it is by the end of the day.
I'll find it the same way you found Lee Da Jung.
It looks like she'll go all the way.
I bet she'll sweet-talk a random employee.
Whoever it is, I'll put all my attention to it...
and end it with my own hands.
Have you not got the money yet?
You look emaciated.
Aren't you eating well?
How can I eat right now?
Mom.
I shouldn't lend someone money, right?
No, you can't. It'd be trouble.
She said she could pay it back right away.
They all say that when they borrow money.
Don't you dare!
Why? Did someone ask for money?
No!
Who would ask a person like me for money?
If someone asks for money when I'm dead later,
don't even lend a penny! You'd be in big trouble!
Okay.
They borrow it when they're in a hurry...
and then don't pay it back as they look down on you.
You wouldn't get half the amount back if you don't have me.
I understand.
If you lend someone money, I'll come running out from my grave!
I get it!
Our bags have gone viral, so there are many regulars.
You have great taste.
Carry it around well. Thank you!
Thank you. Goodbye.
Goodbye!
So is Young Shin not going to work?
I think so.
Because of Da Jung, right?
I guess so.
Oh, my. What will we do with her?
She's causing so much trouble.
How speechless and sad would it be for Young Shin.
We haven't done much for Young Shin,
but Da Jung is throwing a tantrum...
for her to return the favor when we only cared for her slightly.
I hate her even though she's my child.
No. Rather than being sad,
it breaks Young Shin's heart seeing Da Jung like that.
I'm thankful to everyone.
There's no need to be.
Oh Bok.
I'm sorry.
Don't be sorry, Se Jin.
Da Jung is my friend, and I have to protect her.
Don't I know how you feel?
It's cruel of me to only apologize...
when I know your feelings, right?
I'm okay with it.
Seeing Da Jung...
bright and kind and giggling like she used to,
that's all I hope for.
Let's talk before you go in.
I'm tired.
I guess you don't need me right now.
Are you here to ask when we'll go on a trip?
I don't want to go. I'm sorry.
What did Se Jin and Mr. Lee do so wrong?
It was wrong to have me as their daughter.
Da Jung!
Looking at you makes me tired.
You should go!
Do you mean that Min Gyung made an employee...
named Lee Da Jung write an anonymous letter about Young Shin?
I didn't! Nonsense!
She's framing me!
It doesn't matter if it's an anonymous letter.
We have to find who wrote it at this point.
Don't worry. I'll find it soon.
With how things are at the company,
there's no one who falls for your temptation, right?
What did you say?
It would be different if Jong Woo were the managing director.
I've got hold of the CEO position, and Sung Chan is the managing director.
In this situation, who would say they wrote the anonymous letter...
they didn't even write?
How could you say that, Sook Jung?
You can't do anything without Young Shin,
so you tried to get her recipe by using Lee Da Jung.
And you've come to this point where we get such an anonymous letter.
Don't be so ridiculous!
You'll be punished for saying that.
Punished?
You're the one who should be concerned about being punished.
Who is Jung Gyung Soo's mother?
Not again.
Min Gyung. Are you losing your mind because you're cornered?
What if you really go to a hospital?
Fine! I'll find the employee who wrote that anonymous letter...
and take it to the end.
Once it's revealed in the end,
let's see whose life will be shattered...
and ends up in a mental hospital!
It was you who took my laptop and wrote that anonymous letter.
Jun Young.
Young Shin was kicked out like that from the restaurant,
and you thought I'd just watch?
That anonymous letter file is still on my laptop.
How dare you play such a trick against me?
You really are crazy for Young Shin.
If you're so into her, you should win her over!
You couldn't do that. Now what have you done?
Am I doing this for my own good?
I'm doing all this to make you the heir of this family!
I want Young Shin to be better off than me.
Goodness. Where does he get his stupidity from?
Isn't he a fool?
You're not even this bad!
I wonder if he's gotten worse because he's got both our genes.
But these days, he's come to his senses and is living diligently.
What's that?
If it wasn't for her, I would still be out of my mind.
Does she even know that you're foolishly giving...
all your love to her?
Is it love only when the other person knows?
That's what kids do.
He's getting more and more manly.
Getting manly?
He's no better than his father.
Now you know why those things happened so far, right?
Min Gyung is...
excessively greedy about the family fortune.
I guess that's all because I don't have a child.
Drop everything else and adopt Jung Gyung Soo.
That way, Min Gyung won't be greedy.
You're struggling...
to grow the family business.
She tried to frame you by writing a fake anonymous letter.
When Sung Chan goes to the headquarters,
make Jong Woo managing director again.
You think I should?
We can't ignore him as he's family.
We should have pity on him and take him in.
That's very kind of you to say that.
I'm not greedy.
We both don't have any children.
It's all about the family.
I just hope our family succeeds.
In the end, you're the only one I can rely on.
It has worked out well.
Did you hear Jun Young?
Min Gyung raised her son like that and is trying too hard.
Anyway, we only need Young Shin to come back to work.
I'll give you Da Jung's phone number. Call her right away...
and tell her to come to work with Young Shin from tomorrow morning.
Right now?
There's no time to waste.
Da Jung. What brings you here so late?
Young Shin is inside, right?
Go in and wait.
Go back to work from tomorrow.
It turns out the anonymous letter was written by Manager Seo.
There's no problem, so don't worry and go to work.
I'm going to rest some more.
Who gives you the right?
I'll rest if I want to.
No, you can't. You don't deserve to rest.
You can rest when I tell you.
Da Jung.
Are you...
not getting back to work...
because you don't want me to sign a deal with a well-known agency?
It's not like that.
You're so two-faced.
Don't quibble about it and come to work.
I'll come by tomorrow morning.
Young Shin won't be going to work.
She wants you to give this to Mrs. Choi.
What is it?
It must be a letter of resignation.
Letter of resignation?
Young Shin needs to take a rest.
I'm going in. Have a good day.
(Letter of resignation)
Do you think I took you in as my pupil so you could bring me this?
How could I force her to come when she doesn't want to?
Do you want to be a star when that's all you can do?
How could you be so shameless?
Do you know what they said at the agency when they saw your picture?
You look too ordinary.
They said I'd have a better chance if I went on TV myself.
If this is the best you can do, quit it.
Oh Bok, help me.
What is it this time?
Tell Young Shin to go to work.
Mr. Jung was worried that she was tired and needed to take a rest.
Don't go in, Oh Bok. Stay with me a little longer.
You're here.
Give us some space, Oh Bok.
What's wrong with you?
What does it matter to you who I like?
Do you know...
why I was not drawn to you?
Because I knew you would be like this.
What?
Back in high school,
whenever I got high scores in the national mock test...
and said this could get me to medical school,
you looked at me differently. But you didn't know that.
Jung Hoon.
What do you think you're doing?
Why are you yelling at her?
Da Jung, what brings you here?
That's enough, Da Jung. Get a grip.
Stop it before I crush you.
Da Jung, I think it'd be better for you to go back today.
I'll tell him off, all right?
Why can't you keep from saying what you want?
Don't you feel sorry for her at all?
I guess I never learned to.
What?
Uncle, is something on your mind?
You think...
money matters so much in life?
What do you think matters?
I feel like...
there has to be something...
that matters more than money.
Why would you say that?
I don't know.
She hasn't called you these few days. Did you guys fight?
No.
But why isn't she calling you?
She must be worried sick about her little brother,
so wouldn't be able...
to come to the phone.
Why are you out here looking at that?
My heart hurts,
so I can't sleep.
It hurts where?
I was a fool for waiting on you.
There's no need for a pupil or a celebrity chef.
I don't ever want to see you, so stay out of my sight.
Where is Young Shin? Is she in the house?
Leave her alone.
I said to leave her alone.
Tell her to get back to work tomorrow.
Who would she do that for?
For you.
Stop with your nonsense and leave. Young Shin needs to rest.
Make her get back to work when I'm telling you nicely.
I won't.
Do what I tell you.
I said no.
If someone sets her mind to it and makes up weird rumors,
you two can't live in this town without being ashamed.
What?
If you want Young Shin to live with you, send her to work.
I'll be ashamed?
Right.
Do you want me to make that happen?
Are you sure you're my birth mother?
Do you want to take a DNA test?
How could you say that when you say you're my mother?
I'll do anything to get what I want.
You are...
less than human.
If you don't want Young Shin to be caught up in weird rumors, do as I say.
Send her to work tomorrow.
(A Good Supper)
You'd be punished for that.
I'll take the punishment.
You must be insane.
Stop insisting and come to work.
Did Da Jung really say she was starting these rumors?
Stay right there!
Not forgiving you right now is what I should do.
Darn that woman.
How dare she?
Borrow some money from Young Shin and give it to me.
It's painful to see you like this.
Even if I were to be punished,
my son would inherit his fortune.
