(Episode 17)
I went to the wedding of someone from our supplier.
But I couldn't even eat anything because there were too many people.
Honey.
Having cup ramyeon every day is bad for your stomach.
Doesn't my mom bring you side dishes lately?
It's just that I feel too lazy to take those out of the fridge.
Oh, right. Did Se Chan have his golf lesson?
Yes.
But we're barely paying his tuition now.
Do you think we can pay for his golf lessons too?
We should do everything we can since he's got the talent, apparently.
Well... Sang Soo.
You know, about our house...
How about you rent it out and move in with my mom?
If we use the monthly rent for Se Chan's education,
that would reduce your financial burden.
Monthly rent?
All those people live a busy life.
Kyung Ja, are you done yet?
I'm almost done.
(Ms. Yeom)
Sun Dal.
You were so hot last night at the dance club.
Forget about your tab. You don't have to pay it.
(Ms. Yeom)
Ms. Yeom, thank you. And I love you.
(Ms. Yeom, thank you. And I love you.)
The taste you will die for.
Here's a delicious kimchi pancake.
We can't die yet.
You agreed to do a sexy dance with me.
- Stop it. - Pour me a glass.
We're almost there.
I'll go to a karaoke room with Grandpa and sing Pink Blue's new song.
All right. Let's have a blast with your grandpa.
Okay.
Am I doing it right?
- No. This is how you should do the move. - Like this?
Yes... I mean, no. You look like you're applying lipstick.
I, Geum Sun Dal,
used to be the dancing king in Hongin-dong.
- Do you want to see me dance? - Yes, show me.
I'll show you.
This is mambo.
Like a virgin, hey
You are nothing but a hound dog
And even Elvis Presley's dance. I mean, it was so hard...
to get to see my dance back then, even if people were willing to pay.
You get to see this for free because you live with me.
Goodness, you and your vain boast.
Gosh. Trust me. Rich ladies had to take a number ticket...
just to have a dance with me.
Here we go.
Ma'am, how about one more dance?
Shall I follow your lead and dance to your rhythm?
Follow my lead.
Just trust me.
You can trust me with your money too.
(Ms. Yeom)
I think your phone is ringing.
Why did you reject the call?
It was a loan ad. Let's keep dancing.
- Come here. Why? - Wait.
You just got a text message.
Why? Do you need to get a loan?
Why didn't you answer my call?
I want to go to the dance club with you again.
Hey, Geum Sun Dal.
Did you go to a dance club with Ms. Yeom, the corner store owner?
She wouldn't stop nagging me to pay off my tab.
So I took her there just once.
My gosh.
You did the same thing with the lady at the dry cleaner's last time.
You embarrass me so much.
If it's embarrassing, you should've paid off my tab for me.
You give me chump change for an allowance. You have no right to say that.
What?
You're mooching off of me. How ungrateful.
If you're going to keep cheating on me, move out.
Get out of my house right now!
Father.
That day, I got caught by my teacher at the academy.
I'm sorry.
I wanted to visit your agency. Of course, I was upset too.
Hye Ri, actually, I'm on my way to visit my grandpa.
I'll call you back.
Hey, what brings you here?
- Hello. - Hello.
Your child had to see that. It must be embarrassing.
It serves you right.
Go inside now.
Father, come to your senses, will you?
Until when will you keep living like this?
Why do you even care?
Why did you show up unannounced?
I'm so upset.
I mean...
Grandpa!
Oh, my. Hi.
My dear Jan Di, you came too.
Grandpa, I missed you so much.
Oh, my. How sweet.
Grandpa, let's go to a coin karaoke room.
Well... Shall we?
Jan Di, your grandpa said he was busy today.
Come on. Don't be ridiculous.
I'm so excited about going to a karaoke room with him.
I forgot I had something to do at home. Let's hang out next time.
Next time? When?
I don't know. When will it be?
Let's get going, Jan Di.
Okay. Fine.
Grandpa, I made this for you. Open it.
What is it?
Isn't it nice?
Oh, my.
If I dance wearing this bow tie,
I could be the best dancer in the world.
Jan Di!
I'll get going now. Make sure to visit us soon, Grandpa.
Okay.
Be careful.
Bye.
My dear Jan Di is...
the only person who cares about me.
Are you upset that you couldn't go to a karaoke room with him?
Of course, I'm upset.
I was going to sing Pink Blue's new song with him.
I'm sorry, Jan Di.
Why are you apologizing when it's because Granpa is busy?
What?
Well, I mean...
I'm not a perfect father.
There are so many things I haven't been able to do for you.
I'm sorry too.
For always being rebellious and cranky.
All children cause their parents grief.
Then can I keep causing you grief?
No, you can't.
Come on.
I'd be grateful if you could become mature soon.
Well... I think I'll become mature soon if I have a custard bun.
Really?
Then I should buy you 100 custard buns that you like.
Let's go.
Goodness. Hurry up.
Slow down. You might fall.
I can't wait to have it. Will you really buy me 100 of them?
Really? I'm excited.
(Sun Bakery, Hong Do's Side Dishes)
Welcome.
Hello.
- The side dish store owner is here. - Hello.
You see, I was so surprised to see you at the chairman's house earlier.
I was very surprised too.
What a small world, right?
Well...
That being said,
can you not tell anyone I'm the sister of the president of Hwang Dong Food?
My brother hates it when people spread word about our family affairs.
Please don't worry.
I've been discreet about what I saw and heard at the chairman's house.
Thank you.
- Oh, hello. I see you hired a new baker. - Oh, this is...
- Hello. - It's nice to meet you.
- He's such a great baker. - I see.
- Keep up the good work. - Yes, ma'am.
- Dad, they don't have many kinds here. - Yes?
Did you just call him "Dad?"
Oh, my. I didn't know she was with you.
She's quite old for your daughter.
I got married early.
- I see. - Jan Di, say hello to her.
It's nice to meet you. I'm Geum Jan Di.
I see. Likewise.
- I'll start addressing you as her father. - Okay.
Is the young lady...
who works at your side dish store Jan Di's mother...
She isn't, is she?
Oh, you must be talking about my sister-in-law.
- Oh, she's your sister-in-law? - Yes.
No wonder she looked so young.
Then who's her mother? I don't think I've never seen her.
- Well... The thing is... - Sorry?
Oh, I know. Her mother stays at home doing household chores, right?
Ms. Dong, it's not like that.
I'll explain it to you later.
What... Why?
Do you not live with her mother? Did you get a divorce?
Well...
If he got a divorce, he wouldn't live with his in-laws now.
Oh, right. That makes sense.
We're here to buy some bread.
Do you have custard buns here?
Well... I'm sorry. We sold out all the custard buns.
Why did you take me to this lame bakery that doesn't have a lot of bread?
I said I wanted to go to a franchised bakery!
Jan Di. Hey, wait.
- Oh, boy. - What do I do?
I'm sorry for my daughter's rude behavior.
That's okay. I shouldn't have asked that. I must've put you in a difficult position.
No, that's not true. I'll get going now.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Please wait.
- Yes? - Well...
Actually, I put some bread aside for you to take home.
Can I give the bread to him?
That's great. Of course, you can.
Please give me a moment.
Please wait for a while as he said.
Okay, then.
(Sun Bakery)
Here you go. Please take it.
I'm not sure if I should accept this.
- Oh, right. How much is it? I'll pay... - Please. You don't have to pay.
Your daughter said she wanted a custard bun. It's for her.
So please take it home.
I can't thank you enough.
Then we'll enjoy it. Thank you so much.
- Thank you. - Don't mention it.
- I hope to see you again soon. - See you.
- Thank you for the bread. - Go home safely.
Jan Di!
I wonder what happened between him and the girl's mother.
I'm dying to know.
Goodness. Why are you looking at me like that?
Well... It's nothing. Never mind.
Gosh, I'm feeling so hot.
That was quite intense.
Mom, aren't you jealous of Mr. Geum?
What do you mean?
I mean, he's in a passionate relationship at that age. Aren't you jealous?
Why would I be? I find that shameful.
I mean, he lives with one woman after another without even marrying them.
I don't understand why he lives like that.
I know you're jealous inside.
What did you say, you brat?
That's total nonsense. Gosh.
I'm home.
- Hey, you're back. - Oh, my.
Where's your dad?
I don't know.
You don't know?
I'm back.
Kang San, why did you and Jan Di come back so early?
Something came up, and my father had to take care of it.
What happened to Mr. Geum?
- Well... - It's obvious.
It must be about a woman or money.
Don't say such a thing in front of Jan Di. Why you little...
Hey, did you have dinner?
Oh, we can have bread.
- Oh, my. - The new baker at Sun Bakery...
packed some bread for Jan Di.
He looks like a bandit,
but I guess he has a soft heart just like this bread.
- Oh, nice. - Have you seen him too, Ye Ju?
Yes.
- It melts in the mouth. Try this. - Really?
She seemed to be struggling to find a new bakery.
But I guess she managed to find one.
Why aren't you eating?
I hate the owner of that bakery.
Why? Did something happen?
- I introduced Jan Di to her. - Yes?
And she asked about Jan Di's mom.
That lady kept asking why I don't live with my mom.
What?
- How dare that wench blabber about it? - Calm down, Mother.
- Jan Di. - Gosh.
She was just curious about you since she met you for the first time.
Look. She gave me all the bread for you when she was going to take it home.
Here. Try just one bite.
No, I won't eat it.
You don't have to finish it. Just try a bite. Here. Open.
Fine. I'll let her off this time.
My gosh. This bread is amazing...
I mean, it's not bad.
- Right? It's so good, isn't it? Here. - Yes.
Goodness, you. When you smile while crying
- You become a monster - Stop it.
- My goodness. She's acting like a child. - Stop it.
Oh, right. Kang San.
Have you had a chance to ask Sang Soo?
I told him that I'd put up new wallpaper in the vacant room.
But he seemed to have no intention of moving in with us.
Mom, he already refused.
You made Kang San ask him again?
Knowing Sang Soo,
he might never visit us again. Don't you think so, Kang San?
What? Well, I think that's possible.
Is that right?
If Sang Soo really doesn't want to move in with us,
I'll rent out the room instead.
Kang San, do it for me.
I'll do that, Mother.
Grandpa, it's Mi Rae.
May I come in?
Don't you dare come in.
I don't want to see you for a while.
I'm sorry for asking you to come out at such a late hour.
Don't be. I'm the one who should be apologizing to you.
I'm sorry, Kyu Chul.
I couldn't get myself to tell Mi Rae about us.
I said I would talk to her because I knew you would falter like this.
It seems that Mi Rae has been liking Ju Hyuk for a very long time.
She had to hide her feelings for him because of our family members.
And she finally mustered up the courage.
Then how can I tell her to give up on him?
So?
Are you going to break your father's heart...
and give up on marrying me?
Since it's my father's last wish,
I want to marry you as he wishes.
But when I think about how heartbroken Mi Rae would be...
Will you keep sacrificing yourself for your children forever?
You deserve to enjoy your life as a woman.
Chan Ran.
I've waited for you for so long.
Don't you care about me at all?
It's not like that.
If not,
just do as I say.
Okay?
I'm running late.
Where's Jun Pyo?
- He already ate and left for school. - What?
What time do you think it is now?
Oh, is that so?
Let's eat.
What? Mi Rae, why aren't you eating?
Sorry? Right. I'll eat.
The elders are so upset that they won't even come out.
Then how could she swallow food?
What's wrong with you?
By the way, I don't know why Grandpa is against her marriage.
Ju Hyuk is a really nice guy.
It's probably because of the shares that President Dong's family holds.
If they put their shares and Mi Rae's together,
they could be a threat to you who's Grandfather's successor.
Honey, why would you ruin everyone's mood first thing in the morning?
What did I do?
I didn't say anything wrong.
Oh, goodness. Chairman Hwang refused to eat again.
He didn't even touch the food.
What about Mom? Is she not coming out for breakfast?
Ms. Hwang also said she didn't want to eat.
Oh, gosh. Why does Mom act like that too?
Isn't it obvious?
Mother wants to let us know she's against Mi Rae's marriage as well.
So she's protesting now.
I should check in on him.
No, Jae Hyun. I'll go.
- Please give me the tray. - Yes, Ms. Ok.
All right, then. Mi Rae, check in on him for me.
- Sure. - Thanks.
Why did you even say that?
What's the problem?
I said I didn't want to see you. Why did you come in?
You should take your medications.
You can't keep skipping meals like this.
Please eat even just a little, Grandpa.
I said I had no appetite.
Well... Grandpa.
I'm sorry...
I didn't tell you that I was dating Ju Hyuk.
I was wrong.
If you know that,
you should break up with Ju Hyuk.
Grandpa.
Can't you approve of our relationship?
If that's what you want to say, leave! I don't want to hear it.
If my shares are the obstacle,
I'll give up on them.
Did you think that was why I opposed it?
You have no idea how distressed your mother is now.
Because of you, your mother...
Father!
Mi Rae, leave us alone.
- Mom. - I said, leave!
Okay, Mom.
Father.
Let me talk to her.
Please wait until I tell her.
What if the situation gets worse while waiting?
But I need time to figure out how to tell Mi Rae...
in a way that she won't be too shocked.
Just as you worry about me as your daughter,
I feel the same way about Mi Rae.
Good grief.
Mom.
You were surprised earlier, right?
I'm sorry for yelling at you.
Mom.
Do you disapprove of my relationship with Ju Hyuk as well?
Mi Rae.
Grandpa told me...
that you were distressed because of me.
How about you reconsider...
your relationship with Ju Hyuk?
Why, Mom?
Is it because you don't like him?
The thing is...
I'm sorry.
I can't...
approve of you dating him.
Mom.
Ju Hyuk.
Is it true?
That Ms. Hwang is against our relationship?
She didn't tell me why,
but she said she wouldn't approve of it.
What should we do, Ju Hyuk?
I'll meet Ms. Hwang and try to persuade her.
Not now.
Grandpa keeps getting angry,
and Mom seems distressed.
All the more reason to change their minds and make our relationship official.
Ju Hyuk, please. Now is not the right time.
Hello.
Ju Hyuk.
Stop being stubborn and leave for now.
I should go in and get ready for work.
- But Mi Rae. - I'm begging you.
All right.
- I'll call you. - Okay.
Go back safely.
Are you all right?
Well... Yes.
Oh, right. You must've been surprised last weekend.
My grandpa even fainted.
Well, I'm relieved. It could've been worse.
(Horang Art Academy)
Ms. Ok, are you sure you're fine now?
Yes. You don't have to worry about me.
Oh, gosh. When I saw you unconscious that day,
I was so worried about you.
Ms. Ok, I fixed the storage door. It won't happen again.
- I see. Thank you. - Yes.
Look at you, talking as if you'd fixed it yourself.
It was Kang San who fixed it.
You mean Jan Di's father?
Yes. Jan Di's father always helps us with work at the academy.
By the way, your boyfriend seemed so prickly that day.
Oh, did he?
Have you two...
introduced each other to your families?
Yes.
Ms. Jang.
I have a class. I should go now.
Okay, then.
(Horang Art Academy)
Honestly, parents prefer a friendly man like me.
Don't you think so, Ho Rang?
Here you go again, getting ahead of yourself.
It's true. Gosh.
How about you reconsider...
your relationship with Ju Hyuk?
Why are you sighing so deeply?
Hey, you're here.
Thank you for helping me the other day.
You must've been scared because of me when we were locked in the storage.
Of course, I was scared.
By the way, is the man who came here that day...
your boyfriend?
Yes. Why?
He was no joke.
By any chance, were your feelings hurt that day?
I think my boyfriend was a bit rude because he was worried about me.
- I apologize on his behalf... - No.
He was dope.
"Dope?"
He ignored everyone there and only cared about you.
He was so cool.
Oh, did he?
Really?
Are you really single, Mr. Choi?
Unbelievable. My gosh.
Age doesn't matter.
The best qualities of a man are competence and wealth.
I may not seem so rich, but I own two apartment units.
Mr. Choi, you own 2 apartment units, not just 1?
Yes, each in the southern and northern parts of Seoul.
In the southern part too?
How did you save enough money to invest in property?
I haven't even paid off my mortgage loan for my old villa unit.
I rented out the two apartment units that are under my name.
And I live at my old mother's house when I'm not so young.
Although she nags me all the time to get married soon,
I get monthly rent, and it's really nice to see my bank account balance...
increase every month.
Oh, my. You're putting up with it all to save more money. Awesome.
Mr. Choi, I really respect you.
All right. Let's go back to work now.
Mr. Eun, we'll go back to the office now.
Okay. Mr. Choi, see you later.
See you. Let's go.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Sang Soo.
You know, about our house...
How about you rent it out and move in with my mom?
If we use the monthly rent for Se Chan's education,
that would reduce your financial burden.
Right. I'm in no position to refuse the offer.
Hello? Is this the real estate agency?
Well... I'd like to rent out my house.
I think Ms. Ok is Kang San's type.
Ms. Ok?
No.
There's no way.
Mi Rae is not blood related to us.
So she might turn her back on us.
I'll be your shield so that you can rely on me.
How about we spend the rest of our lives together?
