(Episode 16)
Do you still think we're not together?
Hyeongkyu!
- You're home! - I'm home.
Hi.
You must be tired.
Is your new firm doing well?
I just opened it.
I should drop by and clean it.
I'll come soon.
I've hired someone. You don't have to come.
You have? How many?
How many?
Just one.
Okay.
It's a small firm.
Did you hire someone good?
Yes.
Hyeongkyu, umm...
Jinae is with Sanghyeok right now.
What?
Sanghyeok gave me a restaurant gift certificate,
so I sent Jinae to eat with him.
I'd like Jinae and Sanghyeok to hit it off.
But mother,
let Jinae take care of her own business.
I know she can take care of herself.
But it's different for marriage.
People like Jinae who think they're so smart
tend to have trouble when it comes to marriage.
Mother, I need to change.
Yes, right. Go ahead.
By the way,
did you run out of your leg ointment?
Should I get one more?
I still have some left.
Good.
Okay.
Jinae, why are you home so early?
I'm home, mother.
What is it?
Something isn't right.
What do you mean?
Goodnight.
What about Sanghyeok?
Why did you come home with Mr. Jiffy?
Sanghyeok dropped me off and went home.
And I ran into Mr. Kang on the way.
How odd.
How do you always run into each other?
Because we live in the same house.
Jinae, you're home?
Hi, dad.
You must be tired.
I should take a shower.
Mom, how could you do that?
You asked me out to dinner
and you sent Sanghyeok instead?
A beautiful couple should eat at a nice restaurant,
not an old woman like me.
Don't say that.
I was looking forward to eating out with you.
Don't do that again, okay?
If you do that again, I'm just going to leave.
So how did it go? With Sanghyeok?
Do you want me to date him or something?
Of course.
That was why I set you two up.
Mom, I'm not interested in Sanghyeok.
He's just a friend of Hyeongkyu.
Jinae! Wait!
But that's how things start out.
You grow fond of him and marry him.
Sanghyeok is perfect.
He's rich
and he's the youngest son.
Best of all, his parents live in another country.
You know how far Australia is, don't you?
Mom, seriously....
I'm going to pick whom I date.
Don't try to interfere.
Yeah, honey.
What you did tonight was a bit too much.
Jinae has the right to fall in love on her own.
Love? Whatever!
I'm worried she might do something foolish!
Foolish? Like what?
I'm worried you might say you're going to
marry an only son of a widowed mother!
Like Mr. Jiffy.
Honey...
What?
I'm just saying!
Don't you dare pick someone
just like your father, got it?
What?
What did I do?
You can be so heartless sometimes.
Mom,
don't be like that.
What's wrong with dad?
If there is anyone like him,
I'd marry him
right away.
My darling girl.
But there's nobody like him,
so I'm not getting married.
What?
Wait,
but I'm sure there's someone similar.
No, dad.
I'm not getting married.
There's so much for me to do
and so much I want to accomplish.
Why would I get married?
I'm going to take a shower.
Oh!
Why that little!
You're not getting married?
You're going to keep working until you die?
You want me to go crazy? Is that it?
Don't be like that.
It's Jinae's life.
Don't try to force her.
Oh!
He's a good catch!
You think she'll get more chances like this?
Oh, boy...
Man...
Hoonjae must have felt offended.
- Yes? - Yeongseon...
What do we do now that Hoonjae
found out about you and Cheorung?
What do you mean?
He doesn't know the details.
Still!
What if Hoonjae starts hating Cheorung?
Since he knows there's bad blood between you two?
Hoonjae isn't a rash person.
But watch what you say in the future.
Okay.
Hoonjae!
Hoonjae, where are you?
Hoonjae!
My baby, where are you?
Yeongseon?
Cheorung,
can you come over right now?
Why?
Is something wrong?
Actually...
Actually, our...
I'm sorry.
My wife is really sick right now.
Sorry.
Hoonjae...
Even if Hoonjae
ends up hating him,
there's nothing I can do.
He brought this upon himself.
I'm worried you might say you're going to
marry an only son of a widowed mother!
Like Mr. Jiffy.
Mother...
I'm hurt.
What am I going to do now?
Date him?
And eventually get married...
Don't you dare pick someone
just like your father, got it?
Honey, where's my breakfast?
I have an important meeting, so I have to run.
But you have to make breakfast!
What about my mother?
Jinae, where's my breakfast?
This apartment is a mess!
You think you're the only one with a job?
If you weren't going to look after your husband
and do the chores, why did you get married?
But I really have to go.
Mom, my school supplies!
What?
But I'm busy.
Mom, I don't want to go to daycare.
Mom, where's my school supply?
Oh? Okay.
Can you ask your dad?
Honey, just look at this mess.
Can't you quit your job?
It's not like you make that much money.
Get me my school supply!
Quit today.
School supply!
No!
I can't live like that.
I just can't.
Not when it took such hard work to get here.
No.
I can't.
Jinae!
Jinae, wait for me.
Why are you in such a hurry?
I didn't even finish putting my tie on.
Just a second.
What is it?
What do you mean?
I want to drop you off.
Jinae!
Good morning.
Did you have a good talk last night?
Jinae, I'll drop you off.
Wow, talk about persistence.
Jinae's not going to carpool with you anymore.
What?
Why not?
Yun Sanghyeok!
- You're back? - Oh, Hyeongkyu!
- Heading to work? - Why are you doing this?
This is rather unproductive of you.
You don't know what you're saying.
This is how you win over
the heart of a beautiful woman.
This is why you have no girlfriend.
You have no chance here.
How can you be so dense?
What's going on?
You're dissing your friend of 20 years?
Lee Jinae,
you need to be clear about these things.
Have a good day.
Thanks, Hyeongkyu! Have a good day!
I'm hungry.
I came a long way.
Okay, Seonghyeok.
Since I ditched you last time,
I'll come with you today.
Really?
Jinae!
Have a nice day.
Jinae!
You know your day will be long, don't you?
I'll see you at work.
But...
Why is she acting that way?
What about last night?
Sanghyeok, I have a favor to ask.
What is it?
I came with you because I was sorry,
but don't do this again, okay?
I'm not comfortable with it.
Okay.
Then, don't carpool with Butt Duck, either, okay?
I'll deal with that.
You don't have feelings for Kang Hoonjae, do you?
What?
Jinae,
a single choice can change your future.
I am
the kind of man who can give you
all the support you need.
My sisters-in-law all got their degrees after
they got married and started their businesses.
And one of my brothers isn't having kids.
He and his wife want to enjoy life.
To all single women in the world,
my family is a dream come true.
Wait!
It's a man's job to open the door. Hold on.
Here you go.
- Thanks, Sanghyeok. - Sure.
Jinae, let me tell you again,
you shouldn't date just anyone. Got it?
- Your future depends on it. - Thank you.
He must be her boyfriend.
Drive carefully!
Bye.
Oh?
Good morning, Ms. Hwang.
Your boyfriend?
He's handsome.
No, he's not.
He's not my boyfriend.
He's my big brother's friend.
What?
Then, you're two-timing?
What? No!
Of course not.
These are new, but you want to donate them?
Yes.
I got them unexpectedly,
so please use them for a good cause.
- Did you donate them all? - You scared me.
Why would you get scared like that?
Yes, I did.
Did San go to school?
Yes, I walked him to the gate.
San will be disappointed, won't he?
Because I gave away all the presents.
I have a feeling he already knows.
I'm sure he'll understand.
By the way, the person who sent them,
it has to be San's dad, right?
Yes.
I'm worried.
What if you have to move again?
I promised San we'd never have to move again.
Anyway, be careful.
And call me right away if anything happens.
Okay.
How is work going?
Fine.
Your team will get an important mission soon.
Show me what you can do.
I called you to tell you that.
Get back to work.
Yes, sir, I'll do my best.
What is it?
Do you have something to say?
Well...
I heard something bad happened between you
and my mother a long time ago.
Did your mother tell you that?
Yes.
When I heard that,
I regretted coming to work for you here.
So?
Are you going to quit?
No.
I chose this path,
so I'm going to succeed here.
What if I interfere,
letting my emotions get in the way?
Because of the grudge between me and your mother?
I don't think you're that kind of person.
I heard you're a sensible businessman.
So this is free competition, regardless of rank.
A product that could resolve noise between floors.
Noise between floors?
Yes, what we've been working on.
This team is always one,
Chaejun, Hongdo and Eunbi, you form a team.
Let's show them what we can do.
- Yes, sir! - Yes, Mr. Yun.
Let's have a meeting over here.
Mr. Yun, what about me?
Hoonjae?
You're a newbie so don't worry about this.
Go work in the field.
All right.
I'll do it by myself.
Are you sure about that?
Of course.
Oh...
You must work out.
That's solid, Duck Butt.
This tonic is giving me lots of energy.
Ms. Hwang, hello.
Thank you for working so hard.
How do the customers like our new fall line?
They love it.
The ones over here are very popular.
They are?
You want to break up with your boyfriend?
Why?
Because of the things you told me about before?
I can't say they have nothing to do with it...
But most of all,
I don't want love or marriage to slow me down.
I have lots of things I want to do and accomplish,
but I don't think I'll be able to do them.
Your boyfriend hasn't proposed
or is against your job, is he?
No, but he is an only son of
a widowed mother who lives in the countryside.
My mom doesn't like that about him,
and it's been bothering me.
My son's an only son of a widowed mother, too.
Oh, my... I'm sorry.
It's okay. Those are realistic concerns.
If I had a daughter, I'd be concerned, too.
My son's girlfriend might have the same concerns.
No way.
If you were my mother-in-law,
I wouldn't be concerned.
How could you be so sure?
I might turn into a nasty mother-in-law.
I doubt that.
Jinae,
do you know what happens if you're really in love?
You become brave.
You feel like you can achieve
anything with him by your side.
I learned this from raising my son all by myself,
but I'm sure the same goes with romantic love.
There are many people who are married with children
and successful in their careers.
Don't get scared this early on
and just love him as much as you want.
Being calculating about love,
that's a bit petty.
That doesn't suit a gutsy person like you.
Hello, this is Lee Hyeongkyu Law Firm.
I'm not interested in a real estate investment.
Goodbye.
Mr. Lee...
Why don't we try some aggressive marketing?
Like put up ads on newspapers or online.
I think the reason why we don't have any clients
is because we just opened
and people don't know about us.
I don't want to run my firm like that.
I'll take care of that problem,
so you should keep studying while you have time.
Yes, sir.
I have a meeting with a client.
Okay. I'll see you later.
He has a client?
(Lee Hyeongkyu Law Firm)
(We will take care of your divorce)
(Join Attorney Lee Hyeongkyu!)
(To the World of Victory!)
Really?
But I can do a great job.
Hello?
(Classified)
People don't want me because I'm skinny.
Oh, I'm too old and inexperienced.
Man.
(GS25 Part-time position available)
I can work really hard.
But it's the night shift. Can you handle it?
Man,
my nickname is "Mr. Owl."
I hardly ever sleep at night.
Just try me out, okay?
Come on! Please?
How can you hand these out at a place like this?
Look round.
Do you see anyone else doing this?
Please don't do such a thing here.
Do it somewhere else.
Hand them out somewhere else.
If you do this here, we get the blame.
I'm sorry.
What's going on?
This lady was handing these flyers out here.
(Warm-hearted attorney Lee Hyeongkyu)
(Friendly and sensibly priced legal advice)
I told you not to do such a thing.
But I couldn't just sit and do nothing.
Ms. Seon,
you know you're still a probie, don't you?
I do.
You're not a registered employee, so your doing
this is against the Attorneys-at-Law Act.
You'd be called a broker!
A broker?
Oh, my!
I had no idea.
What do I do?
I'm sorry.
Have you been studying or not?
I'm sorry.
Oh, my!
You haven't had lunch yet?
No, not yet.
It's okay. I often skip lunch.
I'm fine.
Go get lunch
and go back to the office.
What's wrong with you?
It happens,
but I'm sure everything will be fine.
Please cheer up.
Everything will work out.
How am I supposed to go on?
Stay strong.
Listen to me, please.
Things like that happen very often.
You'll be fine.
Please cheer up.
You can start tonight.
This potato is so pretty.
It is.
It looks like your arm when you were young.
I can't believe you said that.
Well, Sanok,
you know what?
What if I got another job...
Don't.
I always tell you
not to do anything. Remember?
Don't!
Hi, Sanghyeok.
What's up?
What?
Jinae really said that?
(Mr. Kang)
Oh, it's Mr. Kang again?
You two are really dating now?
Why aren't you answering it?
Hello?
You have time tonight, don't you?
Let's meet up.
I don't have time. I have a lot to do.
I'm busy. I have to go.
What?
Did you two have a fight?
Wait...
You didn't eat your porridge again?
I lost my appetite.
Oh, boy...
You've been like this since your birthday dinner.
Did you have a fight with that doctor guy?
I can't do this.
I can't.
Oh, boy,
I set everything up for her,
but she left and met with Mr. Jiffy?
But we don't know that.
Maybe she ran into Hoonjae
on her way back from dinner with Sanghyeok.
Excuse me.
Who is...
What?
Chaeri!
What?
Huh?
Wait...
You're that brat...
What are you doing here?
What about you?
Are you Jaemin's...
I mean, Mr. Lee Hyeongsun's mother?
Where did that moron go?
He went to take a nap after making a delivery.
Hey!
I came because I wanted to ask you something.
Wait, let me get changed.
Why would you?
Miss, now that you know everything,
I'll give it to you straight.
I'm sorry Hyeongsun deceived you
all this time, but he didn't mean it.
So you should just...
Honey,
she's a guest, so let's get her some tea...
Oh?
Okay.
Why don't we...
Come with me.
Let me go talk to her.
Okay.
Goodbye, Chaeri.
Why bother saying goodbye?
I hope she gets home safely.
She looked really sick.
Chaeri must feel awful right now.
Who was that?
What?
Why did you deceive me?
I thought about it,
but Jaemin, you...
I mean...
Hyeongsun, you haven't explained that to me yet.
Why did you deceive me?
At the blind date,
I had no choice.
And after that?
Why didn't you tell me afterwards?
I tried to, but...
I called the department store.
You got fired because of that incident?
Was that why?
You fooled me because you were angry?
It wasn't...
Yes.
At first I did feel a bit that way.
I was angry after getting fired because of you.
- But... - I knew it.
That was why.
I came to see if you humiliated me on purpose,
and I was right.
When you said you didn't like me,
I thought you were playing hard to get,
but I was never sure.
So that was why.
Hey, that's...
Remember what you said?
About how foolish I was with my friends?
But you were talking about you.
Aren't you the same?
You were disappointed because I'm not a doctor.
You were disappointed because I'm a nobody!
Because you lied to me!
Because you lied...
Did you like me at all?
That's...
Hyeongsun?
- Jinae. - That girl who just walked past me,
wasn't that the girl from where mom worked?
You know Chaeri?
That's your girlfriend?
Lee Hyeongsun!
Have you no morals?
Are you a gigolo?
Are you a con man?
Hyeongkyu, that was too harsh.
You should be focused on getting a job,
but instead, you pretend to be a doctor,
seducing a rich girl...
Are you out of your mind?
- Hyeongkyu! - Hyeongkyu...
You walk around with that silly smile
filled with pipe dreams.
That's why you always fail!
You should know your place.
I was going to...
What's my place?
Pipe dream?
I can't fall in love with a rich girl?
I got bad grades, went to a mediocre college
and I could never compare to you,
so I have to live like a loser?
- Hyeongsun... - What?
Hyeongkyu, that's enough. Stop it!
Yes!
Hyeongsun!
Let's go inside. Calm down.
What about you?
You think you know your place?
How dare you say that to your big brother!
Go to your room.
You know we're not well-off, but you
wear luxury brand suits and drive a fancy car.
You turn down blind dates unless
they're with rich girls.
You waiting to be the male version of Cinderella!
Lee Hyeongsun!
And you think
you have the right to preach me? Do you?
How dare you say that to me!
You moron!
At least I don't con people like you!
I work my butt off and make a living!
I didn't con anyone!
I really liked her! I did!
If I don't have a job, I can't fall in love?
I have feelings, too!
- That's enough. - Hyeongsun!
Mom, stop siding with him all the time.
Is he your only child?
Only the successful can be your child?
Hyeongkyu's always right?
- Hyeongsun... - Hyeongsun!
Hyeongsun!
Oh, I'm dizzy.
What is this mess?
Hyeongkyu.
You were too harsh tonight.
You know what a good boy Hyeongsun is.
He was miserable because of that young lady.
You're his big brother, so...
You shouldn't have done that to him.
I'm doing this because I'm his big brother.
No one else in this family is able
to scold and guide him properly.
What?
Hyeongkyu,
there is no head of the household here?
Am I invisible to you?
I know I don't have a lot to offer as a dad,
but you can't treat me like I'm invisible.
I'm the one who fathered you.
I know Hyeongsun better than you do...
And it's me who wants the best for him!
How could you...
I might look silly, but it's me!
Your dad, Lee Dongchul!
How could you...
I see.
This must've been so hard on you.
Don't take Hyeongkyu too seriously.
That's how he always is.
He thinks he's all that,
and he thinks everything we do is pathetic.
I'm sorry, Jinae,
that you have to see me like this.
Don't say that.
I'm your big sister.
By the way, do you really like her?
Then, you should go and tell her.
I'm going to go get some air.
Okay.
Hyeongsun seemed miserable for awhile now.
I feel so bad for him.
Didn't you say you were busy? You came home early.
Yes.
Why did you ask to see me?
Because I think you're trying to avoid me.
Is it because of last night?
Aren't we closer now?
I'm not sure about that.
This is hard.
Why can't you let your heart guide you?
I'm saying I don't know what my heart wants.
How I feel.
Give me some time.
Jinae.
You sent Sanghyeok home and met Mr. Jiffy?
Did Sanghyeok tell you that?
You told me
that you don't have feelings for Mr. Jiffy.
Right.
I should make him move out or something.
I'm so worried.
Mom, please don't jump to conclusions.
It's not like that.
What was your reason for hating me?
It was my circumstances.
As a daughter and a woman,
I had no escape, and you hated me for that.
They say you become what you hate most.
You've always hated me,
so if you end up living the same life I did,
I'll disown you.
Don't forget, you idiot!
Because you lied to me!
Because you lied...
Did you ever like me at all?
Thank you. Please come again.
Dad?
Dad...
Goodbye.
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
Wait, what's wrong with him today?
Dongchul...
Is he feeling weak?
(Resume, Name: Lee Hyeongsun)
Dad's working so hard.
I have to find a job soon.
Yes, Lee Hyeongsun.
Things like love
is luxury for you.
Hello, Mr. Oh.
What?
Mr. Jang said to offer you
a permanent position after a probation period.
You want to pass up that kind of opportunity?
Yes.
Now, that Chaeri knows everything,
there's nothing to hold me back.
They offered me a job, and I should take it.
Hyeongsun, you're back.
Yes, sir.
I heard from Mr. Oh.
Thank you for your consideration.
Welcome back.
Don't ever say you're quitting again, okay?
I won't.
I'll do my best.
Good for you.
I'm glad, Hyeongsun.
Chaeri, he came back to work for me.
Please take good care of my father.
Okay.
- Good luck. - Good job.
Thank you. Come again.
Welcome.
I thought I heard someone.
Oh, my!
Hyeongkyu...
How do you work this thing?
What?
The cash register.
I'll take over, so you go take a nap.
I'm okay.
You have to go to work tomorrow.
I'm fine.
See?
I'm not sleepy at all.
Go home.
You didn't tell mother you're working here?
No.
Should I tell her?
Go take a nap for an hour.
I'll take care of the register.
And you won't tell her?
Father,
do you need money?
Should I give you some?
No, it's not like that.
I want to save some money
and give it to you when you kids need it.
Goodbye.
Why aren't you napping?
I can't sleep.
Welcome.
Oh,
how did I father such a great son?
I'll ring that up for you.
Thank you. Come again.
Lucky you.
Sanghyeok is treating you to barbecue.
Why don't you join us?
No, it's okay.
I need to man the shop.
We'll be back.
Okay.
You should come.
You like barbecue.
You have all the barbecue you want.
Then, I'll bring some home.
One should be loyal.
I'm not going to betray Hoonjae
for some barbecue.
Seriously.
I think I smell barbecue.
(Mr. Kang)
Hello?
Do you have time tonight?
You're busy again?
Yes, I have to work.
I see.
Okay.
That must have been your boyfriend.
You're not working late tonight.
Are you playing hard to get?
Yes.
Chaeri's not home yet?
It's not that.
Chaeri is sick.
What's wrong with her.
I don't know.
Maybe she got sick at her birthday dinner,
she's been under the weather since then,
and today, she's been in bed all day.
Oh, no! My poor girl.
Why didn't you go see a doctor?
I'm fine.
I'll get better soon.
Is something bothering you?
No.
Is your driver good?
You mean Hyeongsun?
For a young guy, he's pretty decent.
He had to drive a long way today.
I ran upstairs when I heard you were sick,
and I forgot to thank him.
Chaeri, don't be sick.
When you're sick, I can't focus on anything.
Hyeongsun...
Chaeri, you're sick. Why did you come out?
Come inside, okay?
Hyeongsun...
Hurry up.
Why are you hesitating?
Having feelings for me is a burden for you?
Is it because of your mother?
My mom's opinion is important to me.
I might be an awful daughter,
but she's very important to me.
You're not using her as an excuse?
It's you who's afraid
because you might lose everything you've built
for something trivial as romance.
So you've decided not to start. Isn't that it?
- That's... - Jinae,
have you ever dated anyone for real?
No, right?
Do you know why?
Because you only know how to love yourself.
But isn't everyone like that?
They say they love you,
they say they love someone,
but they all love themselves the best, don't they?
Humans are selfish.
Yes, we are.
But falling in love with someone means
you're able to suppress that selfishness
and think you might be willing to start making
small sacrifices for that person.
Yes, I'm selfish.
I'm greedy, so I can only love myself.
So don't come near me and confuse me.
I confused you. I see.
You were doing fine, going your way,
and I interfered.
I did something awful.
From now on,
I shouldn't interfere with your life.
And in order to do that,
I should get out of your sight entirely.
Right?
Okay.
Then,
I will disappear from your life.
- Mr. Kang... - I'm sorry
for interfering with your life.
Hoonjae, what are you doing?
I'm leaving.
What?
Why so suddenly?
Hoonjae!
Hoonjae, what's wrong? Did something happen?
Jinae, do something. Hoonjae's leaving.
Jinae...
Goodbye, Hyeongsun.
Hoonjae!
Hoonjae.
Hoonjae, why are you doing this?
Did something happen?
Hoonjae!
Don't do this.
You'll regret this in the morning.
Go home, Hyeongsun.
Hoonjae!
Jinae!
Hyeongsun!
Lee Hyeongsun!
You'll hurt yourself!
That kid...
Jinae?
What is it?
Is there something you want to say?
Why would Hyeongsun take my things?
Oh, whatever.
I'll come back for my things.
Goodbye.
Don't go.
I'm sorry.
Don't go.
Jinae...
Don't go.
Jinae.
Don't go.

Jinae...

Wait! Hey!
Mother!
Jinae!
Hey, what the heck is...
Mom...
Did Hoonjae commit espionage or something?
Did he kill someone?
Now that you're in love, you've lost it!
If you're not going to do as I say,
get out! You get out, too!
Are you sure you're okay?
You should call the police.
Please don't call the police.
I found this in the garden.
I think I dropped it when I brought the mail in.
