(Episode 105)
Hello.
Are you here to register your child at our academy?
I wanted to check out the academy first.
You can book a consultation at the office.
You can sit in one of our classes too.
Oh, really?
Did your students draw these?
Yes, that's right.
"Geum Jan Di."
"Title, Mom."
Most kids would draw their moms' faces,
but this kid drew her foot.
It's a meaningful drawing that depicts her heartfelt wish...
for her mom.
May I ask what that heartfelt wish is?
It's about the student's family, so I cannot tell you.
Sorry about that.
I see.
But you seem to truly care for this student.
To tell you the truth, I'm very fond of her.
I wonder why she drew her mother's foot.
Do you think she's hoping her mother returns?
How do you know that?
Well, from the drawing, I could feel how much she missed her mother.
I bet this student hasn't forgotten her mother yet.
Am I wrong?
Pardon me?
Ms. Ok, I'm done...
Can you wait a moment, Jan Di? I'll go in and take a look.
I need to use the restroom. You can go ahead.
All right, then.
Would you like a consultation?
Oh, I'll come back another time for a consultation.
Sure.
Mom, why are you here?
I'm here to see you, my dear daughter.
When will you be done?
Soon.
But shouldn't I tell Dad about meeting you?
Don't worry.
He said I could keep spending time with you.
All right, then.
Come down when you're done. I'll wait downstairs.
Okay.
(Horang Art Academy)
Hey, you...
Aren't you Lee Sun Ju?
What are you doing here?
Long time no see, Ho Sik.
I thought you were dead.
How did you come back alive?
Turns out, you can't die just because you want to.
Anyway, it's nice to meet you and Kang San again.
It may be nice for you,
but Kang San is in a relationship now, and they'll get married soon.
I know. I heard he was seeing an instructor at the academy.
You came to the academy despite knowing that?
My gosh. You really have no shame.
But that woman is earning chump change by teaching at a small academy.
What can she even do for Kang San?
Her family owns a conglomerate.
What? A conglomerate?
That's right. Hwang Dong Food. You know Hwang Dong Food, right?
Her family owns it.
Hwang Dong Food?
I see. Kang San caught a big fish.
And you, Sun Ju.
You'd better have a conscience. For Jan Di's sake, that is.
I am doing this because I'm Jan Di's mother.
I am Jan Di's only biological mother in the whole world, you know.
So what? What are you going to do? Will you steal Jan Di from him or what?
Jan Di needs me, her real mother.
Not that woman, Ok Mi Rae.
Oh, right. I'm supposed to meet Jan Di.
Bye.
That...
Gosh.
- Kang San. - Yes.
Come and have dinner.
Where is Jan Di?
What? Oh, she said she'd be home right after dinner,
but she isn't back yet.
She met her mom again after so many years.
They must have a lot of catching up to do.
Yes.
They couldn't see each other for ten years,
so they'd need more than a day to catch up.
Anyway, thank you for being so understanding, Kang San.
No problem, Mother.
Anyway, let's go and eat.
Yes, okay.
Kyu Sun. You saw that, right?
What are you talking about, Kyu Chul?
As soon as I told him...
to get a proper place to live if he wanted to marry you, he backed down.
That baker will give up on you at last.
He only reacted like that because you were fuming mad.
Also, I've listed the bakery for sale.
What did you say?
Father, what do you mean you listed it for sale?
How could you just go ahead and do this without even consulting me?
Why can't I list it for sale? I'm the one who got that bakery for you.
Even so, I am the owner.
For years, I handled all the housework...
while also taking care of you and Ju Hyuk.
Even if you erect a building for me, it wouldn't be enough.
How could you list it for sale without consulting me?
Marry someone who meets my standards.
Then I'll buy you a house and find you another store.
I don't care about stuff like that!
Father, shouldn't we inform Mr. Kim too?
Why bother? We can just fire him.
I can't believe this. Honestly, you're so mean.
Auntie Kyu Sun.
Kang San, Mr. Ok told me...
that Chairman Hwang brought up a pre-wedding meeting.
- Yes. - What?
My gosh. Do they want to have a pre-wedding meeting with us?
Is that true, Kang San?
That's right, Ye Ju. Chairman Hwang said so.
Soon, my son will marry into the Hwang Dong Food family.
Kang San, I have high hopes for you.
What do you mean, Father?
What do you think? In every aspect.
Thanks to you, I can become a member of the royal family too.
I'm already so excited and honored.
Sang Soo, I think you're going way overboard.
Gosh, I'm not sure how I feel about it. A pre-wedding meeting, already?
Isn't it too soon?
Ms. Ma, do you have to be such a downer?
You said you'd support Kang San and Ms. Ok.
Mr. Geum is right, Mother.
Ms. Ma, you don't need to attend the meeting. Kang San.
Tell Chairman Hwang's family...
that we should schedule this meeting right away.
Father, leave that to me.
With these things, there's no need to drag it out.
Anyway, it's getting late. How come Jan Di isn't home yet?
What? Oh, Jan Di is at her friend's place.
I'll go pick her up now.
It's Jan Di.
Really?
Wait. If Jan Di is calling,
why didn't he answer it here? Why did he go outside?
I wonder the same thing.
Hey, Jan Di. I'll come and pick you up now.
Dad, can I sleep at Mom's place today?
Jan Di, you need to sleep at home.
Please. Just this once, okay?
Please, Dad.
Hi, Kang San.
Jan Di wants to spend more time with me.
Let her sleep here tonight.
Let me talk to Jan Di.
Jan Di, do you want to sleep at your mom's place that much?
All right, then. I'll come and pick you up in the morning.
Okay.
Hey, Kang San.
Jan Di is at Sun Ju's place, right?
This is water kimchi, Sun Ju's favorite. Can you drop this off for her?
Jan Di will sleep at Sun Ju's place tonight, Mother.
Is that so? Then we should drop off the kimchi for her another time.
Okay.
My gosh.
Having you right next to me like this...
makes me feel weird.
Why? Is it uncomfortable for you to sleep next to me?
To tell you the truth, when my friends talked about their moms...
putting them to sleep...
and comforting them when they had nightmares,
I was very jealous.
- You were? - Yes.
I thought I was all grown up...
and didn't need stuff like that,
but I guess I was wrong.
It's so nice to spend time with you, Mom.
Wouldn't it be so nice if you, your dad, and I...
lived together like this?
What is it? Why are you all quiet?
Is it because of your art teacher?
Ms. Ok is a wonderful person.
She's very good to me and Dad.
Is she?
I'm very grateful to her.
You must be tired. Should we go to sleep now?
Yes. Good night, Mom.
Hey, Jan Di.
What? You're almost home now?
What?
Okay.
Yes.
Was that Jan Di?
Yes, Mother. But the thing is,
Sun Ju is here too.
What? What if Mr. Geum sees her?
I'll go out and take care of it.
Wait, I'll come with you.
My goodness.
Come in, Mom.
Oh, Grandma!
Gosh, my sweetie pie. Did you have a good time with your mom?
Yes.
Mom, I'm here too.
Yes, good to see you.
Jan Di.
Go inside and get some rest.
Okay.
Mom, I'll head in first.
Okay, Jan Di.
The house still looks the same. It hasn't changed one bit.
Although it looks older now.
Hey, Kang San's father is here too.
Let's go to the store. I'll pack some side dishes for you.
Kang San's father? Mom, he lives here too?
What? Yes, in that room.
Kang San, why didn't you tell me?
I should say hello to Father first.
- What? No, Sun Ju! - Sun Ju.
My father doesn't know that you're back.
I'll tell him, so you can say hello to him later.
Yes, listen to Kang San. Let's go to the store, okay?
Why should I leave already? I haven't been here in so long.
Come on. Let's go!
My gosh.
- Rose - Mr. Geum.
What's everyone doing out here?
What? It's...
I guess we have a guest.
No, she's...
You are...
Hello, Father. It's been a long time.
Am I seeing a ghost?
You died. How is this possible?
No, I'm not a ghost.
I am your daughter-in-law, Sun Ju.
Daughter-in-law, my foot!
How are you alive now? What on earth happened to you?
It's a long story, Father.
Kang San.
Somehow, this happened, Father.
Father, you don't seem happy that I'm back.
How could I be happy about this?
My son will remarry soon.
Why did you have to show up now?
Hey.
You're never helpful to Kang San.
Father, that's enough.
Please stop, Mr. Geum.
Ms. Ma, how could I stop?
Your daughter showed up to ruin everything for my son!
Ms. Ma, I need to speak with Kang San.
Take Sun Ju and go inside. Now!
Sun Ju, let's go inside.
Shall we, Mom?
Father, come inside with Kang San later.
- Go inside. Now! - Okay.
Hey, Kang San.
That witch, Sun Ju, is back. Why didn't you tell me?
I'm sorry, Father.
What on earth is happening?
Stop sighing away. Say something, you fool!
The thing is, Father...
Yes, what is it?
So you're saying...
you cut off contact with everyone...
and lived in the US for ten years?
Yes. That's right, Sang Soo.
Oh, right. Jin Ju and Se Chan are doing well too, right?
Sun Ju!
Now isn't the time to be asking about your sister!
My goodness. How could this happen?
There you are, Father.
Goodness. My son's life was ruined because he waited for you for ten years.
But you look like you've lived comfortably in the US.
About that, I do owe Kang San an apology.
So from now on, I'll be very good to him...
to compensate him for everything.
What? How dare you think of clinging to my son again?
Kang San will marry a conglomerate heiress very soon.
Do you have no conscience?
Is that so?
Mom, is that true?
What?
Mr. Geum. Even so,
Sun Ju is back after so many years. Did you really have to say that?
Goodness. They say blood is thicker than water.
Of course, you're already siding with your daughter, Ms. Ma.
Didn't you say you thought of Kang San...
as your own son and that you relied on him?
Well, it's just that...
Sun Ju knows what she did was wrong...
and regrets it now.
I'm sorry, Father.
I'm sorry.
I was too foolish back then.
So, please. I understand it won't be easy for you,
but please forgive me. Please?
Sun Ju.
What's with her all of a sudden?
Sun Ju.
And...
I truly mean it when I say I want to get back together with Kang San.
Sun Ju.
I understand how you feel,
but I must say that's wrong.
I know, but...
But that's how I truly feel, so what can I do?
Sun Ju.
That's enough.
I told you that I had no interest in getting back together with you.
You heard him, right?
Neither my son nor I can welcome you back.
Father, please...
How dare you!
What? Are you serious?
Sun Ju has no shame!
I know. She was like that in the past too,
but she's gotten even more shameless.
Anyway, Sun Ju won't let Kang San go easily.
She left him because she was sick of being poor,
but she did love Kang San, you know.
Now that she's doing well financially,
she really has no reason to let him go.
You're right.
I told her that Ms. Ok's family owned a conglomerate,
but she didn't even bat an eye.
I don't think she'll back down no matter what happens.
Well, knowing Sun Ju's personality,
I don't think she'll leave Ms. Ok alone.
That is my point, exactly!
Hello, I'm here.
Yes, Geum Kang San! Come and sit here.
Yes, sir.
- Did you sleep well? - Yes.
So? Did you ask your mother-in-law when would be good for the meeting?
Yes.
When is good for her?
She's wondering if we could hold off on it.
Kang San.
What? Why is that, Mr. Geum?
Something's come up for the family. I'll tell you later.
Don't tell me your mother-in-law is against you marrying Mi Rae.
No, not at all.
Soo Ji, why would she be against it?
Jan Di's grandmother is very fond of me.
Right. Why would she be against it when she should be grateful and honored?
Right, Mother?
Soo Ji, can you please watch what you say?
Kang San.
Jan Di's grandmother isn't against us getting married, is she?
What?
Or did she say she couldn't approve of me?
No. That's not the case at all, Mi Rae.
Can we talk in the evening?
Are you free this evening?
Of course. I'll call you when I get off work.
All right.
Hello.
Oh, hello.
What brings you by at this hour?
I was in the area for something, and I thought I should stop by.
I see. Oh, right.
Is Kyu Sun okay?
(Sun Bakery)
I can't say that she's doing well.
I see.
And my father has decided...
to close the bakery.
You should look for another job.
I came here to tell you this.
Thank you for letting me know.
It's such a shame.
Jan Di.
Jan Di?
Yes?
What are you thinking about?
It's nothing.
Ms. Ok.
Yes?
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing all of a sudden?
Just because.
You're always so good to me.
I feel like I've done nothing for you.
Don't say that, Jan Di.
From the moment we first met,
you've always been so special and precious to me.
Just having you by my side...
makes me incredibly grateful and happy.
(Deluxe Taxi)
So it was this house.
How did you get the address?
I heard you worked at the residence of Hwang Dong Food's chairman.
Finding the address was a piece of cake.
I heard...
that you were working here because of the security deposit for the store.
I'll give you enough money to pay that off.
Quit this job now.
It's none of your business.
Also, money isn't the only reason I work for this family.
Fine.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I didn't bring it up to belittle you or anything like that.
It looked like you were struggling,
and I just wanted to help. That's all.
Kang San.
I can get you anything you want.
Did you fall for Ms. Ok...
because her family owns a conglomerate?
Lee Sun Ju.
Kang San. You're done for the day, right?
How about we meet at the cafe in front of the academy?
I've got plans. I have to go.
That must've been Ok Mi Rae.
And you.
It makes me very uncomfortable...
to keep running into you like this.
Okay. Where are you meeting her?
I'll call a taxi for you.
Kang San.
- Sorry to keep you waiting. - It's okay.
It's so hot outside. Order something cold.
Wait, Mi Rae.
Let's talk first.
What?
I don't even know where to start,
but there's something...
I must tell you before it's too late.
All right. What is it? Go ahead and tell me.
Mi Rae.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
- The thing is... - My gosh, Kang San!
This was where you were meeting her.
How did you find me here?
I'm meeting Jan Di here.
My goodness. So everyone will be here.
We met at the academy the other day, didn't we?
Kang San, do you know her?
Well, the thing is...
Hello.
I'm Lee Sun Ju, Jan Di's mother.
Pardon me?
You are Jan Di's mother?
Yes. And I'm also...
Kang San's wife.
It's nice to meet you, Ms. Ok Mi Rae.
It's not like Kang San and Sun Ju will get back together.
- Since this already happened... - What?
Mi Rae, wait! Please hear me out.
If you trusted me,
you should have told me.
What if Ms. Ok...
dumps Kang San because she's utterly shocked?
Hurry up and end things with her so we can start over.
Open it.
What is it? Kang San!
