How did Young Shin's mother die?
What?
Why are you asking me?
Did she die in an accident?
Or did she die from an illness?
How would I know?
If you don't know, who would?
What?
Should I ask Young Shin...
about this woman, Kim Ji Sun, who died in an accident?
What?
Did you make my father do that,
and in return, support our family financially...
and fund my studies?
What in the world are you talking about?
I've done so many things over the years to repay your kindness.
So many things? Like what?
I never followed you because I thought you were right.
It's all thanks to me that you can even live like this.
If not, how would you be the head chef of a restaurant like this?
You hid the fact that you had a child and married into another family.
When you were trembling in fear like a bird sitting on a power line,
I have never had a day with peace of mind.
You sure have done an amazing job.
If it weren't for me,
you would've been beaten by your alcoholic father...
and would've been lucky to graduate high school, much less college.
Aunt Sook Jung!
They say we shouldn't help those who won't return the favor.
I did everything to raise you, and now you say you were uncomfortable?
You should be thankful for what you have.
Did you want to have peace of mind too?
Now you're trying to assert power over me because it was unfair?
My father wants to see you.
What?
It's been a while.
How have you been?
You've aged a lot too.
Why haven't you shown up to any holiday gatherings?
I've sent you the money.
Don't you people like my money more than my face?
We've lived all right with the money you sent.
Just all right?
Why did you want to see me?
Some people showed up.
People?
I think they were private detectives.
Private detectives?
It looks like someone is looking for the woman...
Kim Ji Sun, who died in the car accident I caused.
Who's looking for that woman?
I just told them the facts,
except one.
One fact?
The fact that it was not a simple car accident,
but that someone planned it.
What did you say?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
It'd be cumbersome, so I won't drag it out.
Put Sung Chan on your family registry.
What?
You don't have any children, so adopt your nephew as your son.
Don't say such nonsense.
I've never done anything for him as his father.
So?
Didn't you make me do that...
after finding out that she had President Kang's child?
If it weren't for me, would you have gotten to where you are?
Someone will hear you. Lower your voice.
You promised me some money back then.
You said you'd give it to me when things improve.
I gave you living expenses all along.
Do you think I killed a person just so I could get...
a few dollars of living expenses?
What an unlucky soul.
Despite our blood relations, you're no better than a stranger.
No better than a stranger?
Would a stranger kill someone for you?
I said, be quiet!
You acted as if you'd do anything for me when you needed me.
So, I caused trouble for you, and what did you do for me?
I'll prepare...
the money I promised you.
I don't need it.
Adopt Sung Chan.
I told you not to say such nonsense!
You know, there are no secrets in this world.
Someone came to ask me...
about something I had forgotten about,
fortunately.
Fortunately?
Well, first,
take this for your expenses.
I'd rather go talk to President Kang...
and bargain with him.
She died in a car accident?
We wasted our money looking for a dead person.
So, she's dead.
It can't be helped.
By the way, they said she had a daughter.
What would her daughter have to do with us?
She was a single mother to her daughter.
Really?
They said she was an infant who wasn't even a year old.
Whose daughter could that be?
What are you thinking right now?
What? No, I'm not thinking anything.
But,
if you think about the timing of their breakup...
The timing of their breakup?
Could that child be my brother's...
His...
Never mind.
This is so complicated. I don't know.
However, the possibility that she was Jong Gwon's daughter...
Should I mention it to him?
How do you know whose child she is?
Of course, we don't know.
Still, if she is his child, don't we need to find her now?
We wouldn't have to find someone to adopt.
Hold on.
Then what does this mean?
What is this?
I wanted to save money from working and pay you back,
but my younger brother got his apartment deposit back for me.
Not the one who got in trouble.
Then, where will your brother live?
He said he's going to rent a room and stay there for a while.
He has a job,
so he'll be able to save enough to get another studio apartment soon.
You didn't have to do that.
He said people in a relationship shouldn't be indebted to each other.
Are we in a relationship?
We appreciated the money.
You can pay me back later.
It's okay.
What's that?
Did you write a letter?
It's the 10,000 dollars I borrowed.
Really? You borrowed money from him?
Why did you rush to pay it back?
You should keep it a little longer.
Here you go.
Why did Mrs. Choi get rid of my mother's photo?
Were you thinking about how cool I look when tasting the food again?
No, you're wrong.
I'm wrong?
Then what were you thinking about?
The Prince Charming I saw at the party.
Is that so?
Mr. Jung, can I ask you something?
What kind of bland line are you going to say?
Why are you so nice to Pil Sun?
What?
Seeing you being overly nice to young women...
makes me feel a bit upset.
What?
You know how to be nice to young women now.
Your personality has changed a lot.
Do you think I was too nice to Pil Sun?
We were all being nice to her, for Yong Goo's sake.
I guess it was my first time seeing you smile so much at a young woman.
It kind of shocked me.
Is this another strange symptom of your burnout syndrome?
I guess so.
Don't talk such nonsense. Just make some rice balls.
Am I jealous?
You're going to get into trouble.
That's...
It's not like I can warn you not to smile at young women.
I bet if you say you're getting married, I'll sob for three months and ten days.
Quit it and make those rice balls.
So, you saw Gyung Soo being nice...
to Yong Goo's girlfriend, and it upset you?
It didn't upset me,
but I felt weird for some reason.
He didn't seem like Mr. Jung that I know.
He felt like a different guy.
That's understandable.
Little sisters keep their soon-to-be sisters-in-law in check...
when their brother is getting married.
Isn't it like that?
Is that so?
You said if Gyung Soo loves someone, you could love her too.
I know.
But if he actually dates someone,
I might whine and try to stop him from dating her.
What?
Isn't it funny?
I find it ridiculous too.
Young Shin.
I have no right, and it's not my place to do that,
but why do I think of Mr. Jung as my guy?
"My guy"?
Don't say that when other people are around.
What would they think of you?
You can't think of him that way.
Okay. I'll be careful.
Did I make you uncomfortable with this?
Of course, you didn't.
I'm just worried about you because you're like a daughter to me.
I'm fine with it.
I understand you in any circumstances...
because I decided to think of you as my daughter.
But that's not how other people are.
I was scared my feelings might grow...
if I don't tell anyone and keep it inside.
I'm sorry.
You're afraid your feelings might grow?
These rice balls are amazing.
How did she make them?
Young Shin has a secret recipe for her rice balls.
She doesn't even tell me.
What's wrong?
Do you feel pain in your stomach?
No. I just thought I was laughing too much as a guy.
You have a million-dollar smile.
Do you know how much that is in wons?
I don't know.
Then, why did you say that?
Is a million dollars an amount of money?
What did you think it was then?
I thought it meant something is cool.
You have a million-dollar smile too.
Really?
Eat gyeranguk too. You might choke on those rice balls.
Try some danmuji too.
The danmuji is good. Here.
Everyone is giving them their blessings, and it's making me a bit jealous.
Why didn't you stay there and fish? You came back early.
I like being with you more than fishing.
What's the matter?
Are you touched?
How can you say something like that without even flinching?
You don't have to flinch for saying something like that.
Should I say something sweeter and see if I flinch?
No, thanks.
I'm too scared to know what you'll say next.
I didn't laugh today.
Where?
What?
I tried not to laugh because of you, but you didn't mean it.
Was Yong Goo here?
I was ordered not to smile around other girls, so I couldn't.
- Really? - Yes.
I was just sitting there, sulking.
What if you offended Yong Goo and Pil Sun?
Who said you shouldn't smile for real?
From now on, I can't even joke with you.
They were not offended at all.
They seemed to be blinded by each other.
They didn't care if I was crying or laughing.
Is that so?
Yong Goo must be so happy.
(Exam Center of 2021 School Qualification Exam)
Don't follow me. I'm pressured.
Don't be nervous. Just get the questions you know right.
Don't forget to write your name down.
Go home. I'll go in when you leave.
I'll leave when I see you go in.
Get going. I'll come back when it's over.
Don't come. Stay at home.
Okay. Go in now.
Okay, I will.
Oh Bok.
It's okay if you fail. Don't feel pressured.
I love you.
I love you too, Uncle.
Get going now.
Spirits in the sky and on earth, please look after Oh Bok.
If you do, I'll live an honest life until I die.
I will live an honest life until I die.
I'm sorry to pray to you only when I need you.
I know it's not good manners, but please be generous.
Please help him pass this time.
Help him pass this time.
Are we done?
Why can't I think of more lines?
I was going to skip work and pray all day.
We won't be praying for even ten minutes at this rate.
No way. We should show our sincerity enough.
Sky, my Oh Bok...
I've been talking to spirits in the sky and on earth. You can't talk about that.
Is that so?
I'm sorry, spirits in the sky and on earth.
Help him stay calm and get the questions he knows right.
That wouldn't be enough to pass the exam.
Spirits in the sky and on earth,
give him luck and help him get many questions he knows.
So be it.
You ruined it with "So be it."
Stay out.
Spirits in the sky and on earth,
please help my only grandson, my poor baby.
Spirits in the sky and on earth, I don't care what school he gets into.
Just help him get into a university.
Please help him.
Even Da Jung's mother came to pray sincerely.
How nice it would be if Oh Bok gets into a university.
That will make Oh Bok's grandmother so happy.
Yong Goo would be so happy about it too.
Oh, dear.
Did you go pray with her too?
Of course, I did. How can I sit still?
Are you going to approve of him dating Da Jung if he gets in?
I don't know.
What did you pray about?
I just said everything that came to mind.
There are occasions in life you need to pray desperately to someone.
I guess those who are not afraid of the sky have got some guts.
What an absurd request.
It doesn't make sense at all.
What did you want to see me for?
Try talking to your father.
About what?
- What is wrong with him? - What happened?
He's like a thief.
What did he tell you?
He asked me to adopt you.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Did I go through all the trouble just to adopt you?
Tell him you don't want it.
He wouldn't force it when the very person doesn't want it.
Aunt.
What is it?
I've never seen someone like you.
What do you mean?
When it's needed, you completely forget...
- even what happened yesterday. - What?
You're like those people who spit on someone one day,
and then try to use them again when you need them.
So, are you saying you want to be adopted as my son?
I don't want to be your son.
I'm glad.
But I do think I wasted my youth for you,
and it was absolutely meaningless.
You want me to pay you too, then?
Just adopt Young Shin as your daughter.
Once that happens,
I will leave you.
I said, that's not going to happen!
Some people only remember what they want to.
What do you think they end up with?
Are you saying they will end up in a mental hospital?
Everyone will turn their back on them.
One person at a time.
And later,
they will blame the world, saying it's picking on them.
They'll end up cursing their fate.
I don't care if the whole world turns its back on me.
I will soon succeed Jong Gwon and become the president.
Do you think this is a small business?
It will be mine soon.
Why do you trust me so much?
What?
You think Gyung Soo will let you off as he is your soon,
Young Shin will let it pass because of Gyung Soo,
and do you think because I'm your nephew...
that I will let you off?
How can you trust me without a doubt?
Are you saying you will take me down by talking about it?
Don't mess with me.
You'll get hurt as well.
Do you think I'm still the pitiful woman...
who whined before your father a long time ago?
Did you say I will get hurt?
After everything I've done for you,
you should be grateful and back off.
I have nothing more to ask from you.
You worked hard to study for the exam, Oh Bok.
That's not good enough.
He should pass the exam.
He's been working hard at it, so he'll pass the exam someday.
Da Jung, eat up.
Okay.
Da Jung, eat up.
Seeing you here works up my appetite.
I'm glad you're here, Da Jung.
Why are you dancing again?
I'm so happy that Da Jung is here.
I just can't keep still.
Today's samgyeopsal is on Oh Bok.
He got back the money that he lent.
Is that so? That's good news.
She brought the money.
Where did she get the money from?
Her younger brother...
said that she shouldn't borrow money from the man she's dating.
He took the trouble to come up with the money.
How did you say she put it?
From the man that she's dating?
Did Pil Sun say it herself...
that she's dating you?
It's a success.
He made it.
No wonder Yong Goo was dancing.
Congratulations, Mang Soon.
You should catch a pig.
This won't do with samgyeopsal.
Right. I'll catch a whole pig.
Congratulations, Yong Goo.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations, Oh Bok.
No way.
I'm the star today.
I'm the one who had a hard time because of the exam.
Uncle, please go home.
I'm the star today.
Good job on studying, Oh Bok.
Of course, I should.
If she said she was dating you,
then it's now really official.
Goodness. How can this be?
Take a look at me.
Look at me.
I'm totally losing to Uncle.
I'm going to go astray.
You can go out there and go astray alone.
Can you move over so that I can see Yong Goo?
Se Jin.
Oh Bok, it's not the first time you took the exam.
How many times has it been?
You might take it again next time.
We're not interested that today was your exam.
Young Shin, I took the exam today.
Yes, great job.
Please move over. I want to see Yong Goo.
Mr. Park.
I took the exam today.
Right. Great job.
Can you move your hand so that I can see Yong Goo?
That's so mean.
Why isn't Young Shin back yet?
I'm getting bored here.
The way I see it, she only sleeps here.
How many days is she over there in a week?
Everyone's having dinner together as it's the day off at the Diner.
It would've been nice if we could join her.
That scary-looking man there...
took an exam today.
Since it's a big family,
it's very eventful with many things happening to them.
It must be fun to live like that.
What do you mean?
Those who barely eke out a living have no time to have fun.
It must be hectic to earn their living in their waking hours.
Take a look at television.
Even those who are ill-off in rural and fishing communities...
help each other out and live more affectionately.
Those things have all been staged.
It's not like they can film them being poor or borrowing money,
can they?
That won't go on air.
All we talk about at meals is Young Shin these days.
It'd be nice to have a daughter like her. She'd be like a friend.
You have me, Mom.
I'm sweeter than a daughter.
Sweet?
You never listen to me.
When did I never listen to you?
When I say one thing, you do another.
When I tell you to come, you go.
When I told you not to date Young Shin, you were crazy over her.
But when I told you to make it work with Young Shin, you said you're friends.
Did you ever listen to me?
But I don't go clubbing these days.
I told you to meet a rich girl at a club.
That's why you haven't been going.
How about you?
I like how Jun Young has been lately.
He's gotten better.
He can only get so much better.
I wish I had a daughter like Young Shin.
Me too.
Shouldn't we tell Jong Gwon about it?
How do we know if it's his daughter or not?
After she broke up with Jong Gwon,
she could've met another man.
So soon?
That's how women are. They're better at dating right after breaking up.
They feel lonely and want to forget their ex-boyfriend.
She's not the type to do that.
How would you know from looking at her?
That's why Jong Gwon couldn't get over her for such a long time.
That's how women are.
They make their men never get over them,
but they meet a new man soon.
That can't be.
I mean it.
You don't know what I'm talking about.
Jong Gwon has been wishing for a daughter so much...
and wants to adopt a daughter.
If Jong Gwon's daughter was alive in this world,
he'd be delighted.
Jong Gown, what would you feel like if you had a daughter?
That hurts.
Eat your fruit.
It'd be nice.
What could be happier than that?
That's why I want to adopt Young Shin as my daughter.
It must be her.
I'm sorry I'm late.
What kept you so long? Tell me what was so fun.
Now then, take a rest since you must be tired.
Tell the fun story tomorrow to me only.
That's so unbecoming.
Why would you make such a joke at our age?
(A Good Supper)
Do whatever you can...
so that Young Shin can get over you.
Are you saying you will meet someone and go on a blind date?
Why did you have a change of heart?
I'm sorry that my existence is a burden to you.
It happened when we were kids, but she whines about it...
and is spiteful like she was abandoned after having a baby.
They said only those without sin could stone another person.
You're like a stepmother who is jealous of the ex-wife's daughter.
How can I suddenly get such a big amount of money from?
Or you can adopt Sung Chan.
You should leave now.
Leave this restaurant and my house.
