Ms. Ok.
Hello.
You forgot the cold cucumber soup.
Oh, I forgot. Thank you.
Enjoy the gimbap.
Wait.
Ju Hyuk, what's wrong?
Did you make the food?
Sorry?
I asked if you made the food, Mr. Geum.
The thing is...
Ju Hyuk, actually, he helped me make this...
because I had only made gimbap a few times before.
Oh, I see.
I'll enjoy it. Thank you, Mi Rae.
Don't mention it.
I'll go back inside. Take care.
You should get ready for work too.
Yes. Then go on, Ju Hyuk.
Okay. Let's talk later.
Okay.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Hey, everybody.
Attention, please.
- Hello, Mr. Choi. - Hello.
I brought you guys good news like a swallow.
So listen carefully before you start working.
What kind of good news is it?
Mr. Dong Ju Hyuk's idea for premium porridge products...
is getting a lot of attention in the company.
Really? I also heard that it was expected...
that brisket kimchi porridge would boost our sales...
from the marketing team.
That's right. I read about it on the intranet forum.
Mr. Dong is brilliant just as I thought. I totally respect him.
It seems that since Mr. Dong joined our team,
things have been going so smoothly, don't you think?
My point, exactly.
Oh, my. Mr. Dong, you're here.
Here's the hope of the planning team... I mean, the hope of Hwang Dong Food!
Well... But you're a bit late. Right?
Pardon?
I'm ten minutes early.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Oh, is that so?
Right. Mr. Dong is not late.
Right, Mr. Choi. It's 8:50 a.m. now.
Mr. Dong, don't be upset. Mr. Choi was speaking highly of you.
He said your idea for premium porridge would be very successful.
By the way, what did you bring?
Did you bring a sandwich again?
No, it's gimbap.
And I'll go make some coffee for myself.
Okay.
Mr. Dong must be really happy...
that there are 2 big fans of his, not just 1, in the company.
What are you talking about?
Listen to me carefully, you two.
Everyone in this company...
must be sitting at their desks 30 minutes before work starts. Got it?
Gosh, he's such a boomer. I'm sick of him.
What? "A boomer?"
Come on. Just drop it, Mr. Eun. Times have changed.
By the way, Mr. Choi.
based on the look on Mr. Dong's face, I think something's going on with him.
I don't know. The work is going well,
and he's dating the chairman's granddaughter.
What bad things could be going on with him?
You're right. That's true.
I'm really worried about you, sir.
Developing a new porridge product is good,
but you should always put your health first.
In order for me to maintain good health,
I need to make our new porridge product a success.
But all of the proposals submitted so far...
are similar to our competitors' existing products.
Well...
It's good to develop a differentiated product, but...
Yes? Go on.
What I'm saying is that if you've tried to beat the other companies until now,
why don't you start thinking about how to satisfy those who will eat it?
Those who will eat it?
Yes. Not the other companies, but those who will eat it. Oh, the consumers!
My goodness. Hey, I'm not deaf.
Right. Then I'll leave now.
Call me if you need anything, sir.
That brat. I asked him to help me come up with an idea,
but he only gave me a lot to think about.
You gave her back the money that Mr. Geum used to buy his shoes.
That's so unfair.
We have to sell so many packs of spinach to make 1,000 dollars.
Ho Rang was being too nosy, you know.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
How could Mr. Geum buy a pair of shoes that cost him 1,000 dollars?
If you sell luxury goods like his shoes, even when they're used,
you can get at least half of the original price.
Don't be ridiculous. Who would buy shoes that someone else wore?
It's true. There's a reason people like luxury goods.
Hey, if you can get half the price... Then would it be worth 500 dollars?
That's right...
- Mom. - Yes?
I'll step out briefly.
- Hey. - I'll be back shortly. Wait here.
Where are you going while working?
Hey, wait. Ye Ju!
Hey, where are you going...
Mr. Geum.
Mr. Geum, are you home?
I guess he's not at home as I expected.
I was right.
Oh, my.
Look how gorgeous they are.
I can tell that he didn't wear them often to keep them from wearing out.
All right.
Nice.
They look different in the photos.
Oh, gosh. You startled me.
You're back, Mr. Geum. Hello.
Why are you surprised to see me?
But why were you taking photos of my shoes?
Look at these. I mean, I've never seen any designer shoes like this.
I came in to see if there were any clothes to be washed.
Since the shoes looked so nice, I took some photos of them.
I'm impressed. You have a good eye.
Yes.
By the way, aren't you going out today?
Well... My body feels a bit stiff and tired.
So I want to go to a sauna.
But I have no money.
You have no money?
Shall I give you some?
What has gotten into you?
It's just that I haven't done anything nice for you when you're staying with us.
To be honest, Kang San is like a father to me.
Wait.
Please go to a sauna with this money.
Can you...
be a little more generous?
I'd really like some sikhye and eggs.
Sure.
- This would be enough, right? - What?
Then take your time and enjoy your time there.
- What? Well... But... - Go on.
Anyway, thank you, Ye Ju.
No problem.
I should put the shoes on the website first.
(Horang Art Academy)
Ms. Jang, hello.
Hi.
How are you feeling? Are you feeling all right?
I'm fine, I guess.
By the way, I'm sorry...
that you had to teach all my classes this morning.
That's okay.
Oh, and my nephew will come later to enroll in my art class.
Your nephew?
You mean, the great-grandson of Hwang Dong Food's chairman?
My goodness. There are many expensive art academies.
Why would he come to our academy?
Apparently, Jun Pyo specifically chose our academy.
He pestered his mother to let him take classes at Horang Art Academy.
Oh, I see. Your nephew's name is Jun Pyo.
My, I'm so glad he chose our academy.
Right. Whatever the reason,
this is such great news.
Indeed.
(Horang Art Academy, Ok Mi Rae)
Oh, Jan Di is over there.
Shall I tell her that I'll go to her art academy starting today?
Jan Di.
Hey, Hye Ri.
- I missed you. - Me too.
Ms. Jang hugged my dad so affectionately...
and acted all flirty.
Gosh. She annoys the heck out of me.
Why wouldn't you be annoyed?
Even I was shaking as I heard about her.
Ms. Jang, the director of my art academy had always been nice to me...
like my own auntie since I was little, and I liked her so much.
My gosh. How could she do that to me? I feel so betrayed.
That's what grown-ups do, you know.
That's why I don't trust any grown-ups.
Why?
What do you mean, "Why?"
When you got scammed by the entertainment agency,
it was a grown-up's fault too.
Come to think of it, that's right.
I think I shouldn't trust any grown-ups from now on.
Be careful.
Let's stay alert, okay?
Yes. Let's do that.
And actually,
I'm so afraid Ms. Jang might take my dad...
away from me.
That's the real problem.
- Let's go back in, Hye Ri. - Okay.
Hey, Ok Jun Pyo.
How long have you been hiding here?
I wasn't hiding.
Did you hear everything I said?
I didn't hear anything.
Anyway, what are you doing here? The class will start shortly.
You're always at the bottom of the class because you ditch classes like this.
What are you talking about? You're not in the classroom either.
I'm not like you.
I'm top of the entire school and the student president.
And I'm on my mission, delivering these handouts.
"Mission?"
Gosh. You use English words all the time. You're so full of yourself.
- Let's go, Hye Ri. - Okay.
Hey, wait up for me.
(President Dong Kyu Chul)
I heard...
that the premium porridge products that you're working on...
are getting positive feedback within the company.
Is that so?
I suppose I'll get a good result since I've been making a lot of effort.
It doesn't always work that way.
Pardon me?
I'm saying you should stay thorough until the end...
to make sure to win Chairman Hwang over.
And be careful not to cause trouble with any girl problems.
I guess you still have someone following me.
What?
Let Mr. Kwak focus on his job as your chauffeur, Father.
Mr. Kwak is doing what he should do.
And you're the one who should be careful.
You don't want to ruin everything when things are going well.
Mind your own business. I'll take care of it.
I do hope so.
Now then...
(President Dong Kyu Chul)
(Horang Art Academy)
What? Where did Ms. Ok go?
Is she teaching her class?
Hey, Ho Sik. I have big news.
What's wrong?
Did Auntie Hong Do come here again?
No. Come and sit here for now.
- What... Why? - Hurry up and sit.
Why are you making a fuss this time?
I'm not making a fuss.
A VVIP student will enroll in our academy later today.
A VVIP? Who is that?
You'll be surprised.
He's the great-grandson of Hwang Dong Food's chairman.
You mean, Ms. Ok's nephew?
That's awesome.
It's awesome, indeed.
If word spreads about a VVIP like Ms. Ok's nephew...
going to our academy,
many moms will enroll their kids in our academy...
at least to let their kids make friends with the VVIP.
Oh, right. I agree. We should make sure Ms. Ok's nephew enrolls in our academy.
I had such a hard time emotionally because of Kang San.
But good things come after bad things in life.
Since Kang San has been brought up...
Will you keep trying to get with him?
If you just give up on him,
I think there will be no more sad days in your life.
I will never give up on him.
I like challenges, you know.
Gosh.
Hey, let's go in and clean the place. Hurry up and come with me.
Fine.
You won't give up on my dad?
Then I'll have to show you how miserable your days can be.
Hey, Hye Ri. It's me.
Can you come to my art academy later?
Gosh. Mr. Kim, did you see that in the kitchen?
What do you mean, Ms. Dong?
The water leaks in the kitchen.
I think I should call a plumber.
That's not necessary.
What?
I'll go and check.
Okay.
(Sun Bakery)
How...
I think I can fix it.
I'll go home to pick up my tool box.
- Okay. - I'll be right back.
Oh, my goodness. Why is he so tough today?
No, I shouldn't fall for him.
I should not fall for him.
Gosh.
Since I sweated out in a sauna after a long time,
I feel so refreshed.
He uses such light dumbbells.
Oh, it's quite heavy.
Hello.
Excuse me.
Yes?
You're Jan Di's grandfather, right?
Pardon? Oh, yes, I am.
- Wait. - Yes. What?
What is it?
You forgot your beverage.
He must be a very shy person.
But why was he covering his face with a towel like that?
(Horang Art Academy)
Okay. Mop it hard.
Gosh, seriously.
Ms. Jang, you don't have to do this.
Had we had enough time, she would've even cleaned the windows too.
Stop it.
Oh, he's here.
Welcome.
Soo Ji, this is the director of this academy.
It's nice to meet you, ma'am.
I'm Jang Ho Rang, the director of Horang Art Academy.
Hello.
Jun Pyo, say hello to her.
Hello. I'm Ok Jun Pyo.
Hi.
You look so elegant and smart.
Of course, he does.
He's the top student in the entire school and a beloved child...
who's perfect in every way.
If he doesn't get good results in his performance assessments,
it'd be natural for me to blame this art academy, right?
Oh, the results of Jun Pyo's performance assessments?
You have nothing to worry about, ma'am.
Where do you teach children? I'd like to see the academic atmosphere.
This way, please.
Let's go.
(Horang Art Academy)
Why would she talk about an academic atmosphere at an art academy?
Please come in. This is our office.
This is Ms. Ok's desk.
And that's the classroom where Jun Pyo will learn to draw.
This is your office? It's as tiny as a mailbox.
Excuse me. What kind of mailbox is this big?
What?
Hey, be quiet, will you?
What's that noise? It's too loud.
Oh, no. What's going on? Gosh.
Let's go.
Jan Di, please. Stop it.
No. I won't stop.
- Jan Di. What... - Let's dance.
Goodness.
Jan Di, what are you doing? This is an art academy.
Didn't you see?
I was singing and dancing.
Jan Di, why are you acting like this?
Ms. Choi, this isn't what you expected to see at this academy, right?
What?
Oh, right. Jun Pyo, I heard you would enroll in this academy.
Come and dance with us before the class begins. What do you say?
Hye Ri, play the music again.
Come on, Jan Di.
Geum Jan Di.
What's wrong with you?
What do you mean? You know I'm always like this.
Just as you said, I'm a delinquent who gets zeros on my tests.
Oh dear.
And Ms. Choi, please don't worry about Jun Pyo.
I'll help him get used to this academy.
Better yet, I'm going to be his best friend.
Goodness gracious. What did I just see?
Can't you teach your students to behave properly?
Well... Ma'am.
I can't blame you for getting the wrong idea.
But it's actually quiet here so that our students can focus.
It's not like what you just saw.
Come on. You heard what Jan Di said.
My gosh. How can I let my son take classes...
at a place full of delinquents?
Gosh. And she'll become his best friend?
No way. That sounds terrifying.
- Let's leave. - Mom.
Come with me now.
- Ma'am, wait. - Soo Ji.
(Horang Art Academy)
Soo Ji.
The atmosphere at this academy is usually not like that.
And the director considers personality education for kids important.
Please calm down and go back in...
Mi Rae, whose side are you on?
Do you not care about your nephew?
You just want to attract more students? Is that it?
That's not the case.
Mom, please.
Stay out of this.
If your nephew wants to take classes at a lousy academy like this,
you should stop him.
My gosh. I'm just speechless.
Let's go.
Mom.
I warned you, didn't I?
I told you I wouldn't let you off...
if you kept hitting on my dad.
Hye Ri, let's go.
Jan Di.
Let's talk.
Hye Ri.
I'm sorry, but you should go without me.
Okay.
Let's go. I'll give you a ride.
What do you have to say?
Jan Di.
Did you really have to go that far?
We used to get along well with each other.
Since you were very little,
I've been watching you grow.
I adore you so much.
I think of you like my niece... No.
I mean, I think of you like my own daughter.
I have a mom who gave birth to me.
Who is she to say I'm like her daughter?
Right. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.
What I was trying to say was...
that I care so deeply about you.
Forget it.
Jan Di.
Your dad has been living without a wife for over ten years.
He must've been so lonely.
So I...
want to be his rock right by his side.
So Jan Di, please...
Can't you...
give me a chance?
I already said I hated the idea.
Ms. Jang, don't tell me...
you think he'll accept your love one day if you keep trying.
What?
I'm sorry to disappoint you.
My dad said he had no feelings for you.
And everyone else in my family is disgusted by you. They all loathe you.
They're disgusted by me?
They loathe me?
Why is she crying?
I'm the one who wants to cry.
Jan Di, are you happy now?
Sorry?
Now that you hurt Ms. Jang's feelings,
are you happy?
Yes.
I'm so happy that I feel like I can fly.
You're lying.
You're as distressed as Ms. Jang right now.
But what else could I do?
If I don't do this, my mom...
If she takes my dad away from us,
will you take responsibility for that?
I understand that it must be hard for you.
And I know what pains you.
Even so,
that doesn't justify your behavior.
And if you keep going astray and being mean to her,
both you and Ms. Jang will only be hurt emotionally.
You don't know anything.
Of course, I know.
I have waited desperately for someone just like you.
Is Kang San here?
- What? - Hey.
I'm glad you're here.
Ho Sik, keep your distance from Kang San from now on.
- What? - You must know...
that your sister humiliated herself...
by letting everyone know about her feelings for Kang San.
So if you keep hanging out with Kang San,
he and your sister will keep running into each other.
- Mom, stop it. - Why?
Gosh.
- Mother, how could you say that? - What?
Ho Sik and I have been friends for 20 years.
Forget it. Fine, I understand.
Hey, Ho Sik.
Good. If you understand what I said, you should go now.
- Mom, what's wrong with you? - What?
But before that, can you make Jan Di stop taking classes at our academy?
Hey, Jang Ho Sik.
My gosh. What did you say?
Ho Sik, why would you bring her up all of a sudden?
Do you know what Jan Di did today?
She made the great-grandson of Hwang Dong Food's chairman leave...
when he came to enroll in our academy just to give my sister a hard time.
What do you mean by that?
Jan Di made Ms. Ok's nephew leave on purpose?
Kang San, I think he's saying that Jan Di sabotaged Ho Rang's business.
Is that it, Ho Sik?
Yes, that's the case. She sabotaged Ho Rang's business greatly.
Oh, no. Mom, what do we do? Jan Di crossed the line in the end.
- What? - Gosh.
Is that true, Ho Sik?
Hey, are you telling us the truth?
If you can't believe me, ask her yourself.
Ask your daughter whom you cherish so dearly!
- Oh, no. Kang San. Wait. - Oh, boy.
I just wanted to pull a prank on Ms. Jang and ended up like this.
Besides, I feel so frustrated as if I had food stuck in my chest.
And if you keep going astray and being mean to her,
both you and Ms. Jang will only be hurt emotionally.
I'm so annoyed.
Why did Ms. Jang cry?
Wait, Kang San. Calm down and let it slide.
Dad and Grandma.
- Geum Jan Di! How dare you? - Stop it.
Oh, dear. My sweetie pie, why did you do that?
- Where are my shoes? I love those shoes. - Ye Ju.
Mr. Geum, your shoes have found...
- a new owner. - How do you know that?
- Mr. Geum, Jan Di must be uneasy now. - What do you mean by that?
And Ho Rang, I think Jan Di should stop...
- taking classes at your academy. - No!
I was wearing it when I parted ways with my dad.
I would throw it out without hesitating.
Ju Hyuk.
