It's okay. I'm relieved that you didn't get hurt.
Mi Rae.
Ju Hyuk, you're here.
Hello.
What brings you here? You don't work here on weekends.
And what's with all that food?
Ju Hyuk, the thing is...
What's taking Mi Rae so long?
She said Mr. Geum was in front of our house when she went out.
Mother, are you done cooking?
Shall I taste the food to see if it's good?
I'll take care of everything.
So don't worry and wait outside of the kitchen.
I'm just trying to help you...
like a filial daughter-in-law for a change.
Then shall I at least help you set the table?
I said I didn't need your help.
Just rest up until it's ready, my precious daughter-in-law.
It hurts my feelings, Mother.
By the way, where did Mi Rae go?
Sorry?
Hello, Ms. Hwang.
- Oh, my. - What?
- Ju Hyuk, you came too. - Yes.
Oh, my. Mr. Geum, what brings you here? Today is the weekend.
And what's with these bags?
My goodness. What's all this food, and why is it so messy, Mr. Geum?
You're not going to serve this food to anyone, right?
I'm sorry, Ms. Hwang.
Mr. Geum.
What's going on? Did something happen?
Well... The truth is...
Mom.
I made a mistake.
You're at fault, Mi Rae?
Yes.
Kang San, thank you for cooking for us.
Thanks to you, we all enjoyed a delicious lunch.
Don't mention it. I made a simple dish, janchi guksu.
I make it for my family once in a while when we don't have much appetite.
I wonder if it suited everyone's palate.
I see. How did you all like it? Wasn't it tasty?
Of course. It was very refreshing.
It didn't have the fishy smell of anchovies either.
I agree with you, Mi Rae. It had a flavorful aftertaste.
It was very refreshing.
I made extra broth,
so just let me know if you'd like some later on.
Okay.
Oh, right. Kang San, have you had a chance to think about it?
About what, sir?
I told you I wanted to reward you in some way.
Actually, I haven't thought of anything yet.
Grandfather, what do you mean you want to reward him?
Oh, that.
Kang San greatly helped us...
develop a new instant porridge product.
So I'm going to reward him properly.
Oh, my goodness. Well... How much money will you give him?
Mr. Geum has already refused a monetary reward, Soo Ji.
What?
Why?
Did you have an ulterior motive for refusing it, Mr. Geum?
Come on, honey. Don't say such a thing.
Soo Ji.
Mr. Geum helped Grandpa out of concern about his health.
Mi Rae, you defend Mr. Geum...
whenever we talk about him.
I mean, Ju Hyuk is here too.
Father, I think the idea of getting a reward makes him very uncomfortable.
No way. Even so,
I said I couldn't just forget about it.
Kang San, if you haven't made your decision yet,
I'll make you an offer.
Sir.
How about you join my company?
Pardon me?
Grandfather, by "your company,"
you don't mean Hwang Dong Food, do you?
Of course. What else could it be, honey?
Kang San, if you accept my offer,
I'll find a position for you.
I'm saying that I'll hire you...
as a permanent employee of Hwang Dong Food.
Did you just say "permanent employee of Hwang Dong Food," sir?
That's right. A permanent employee of Hwang Dong Food.
How about a position as assistant manager?
Grandpa.
Sir.
Oh, my. Mr. Geum, you hit the jackpot.
Honey, don't say anything, will you?
Sir, my job is to look after you as your caregiver,
not as an employee of your company.
Working as an employee of my company...
is the same as looking after me.
Father.
Are you sure you'll be fine without him?
My condition has improved a lot.
And we can find someone to replace him.
If I may, sir.
Although Mr. Geum came up with the idea for our new product,
shouldn't we check if he's qualified...
for a job at the company?
Kang San...
has as much knowledge and passion about food...
as any other employee of my company does.
Based on what I've seen until now, he's more than qualified.
What do you say, Kang San?
Will you join my company and continue to help me?
Please give me a little time to think.
All right.
Give it some serious thought.
Hey, Jan Di.
I had lunch at the chairman's house.
If you're hungry, eat with your uncle.
I'll be home shortly.
Okay.
Yes. Bye.
He said the family was very rich.
Their house looks fancy as I expected.
Grandpa.
Are you really going to hire Mr. Geum as an assistant manager?
I mean, it's true that he helped with the development of our new product.
But he doesn't seem to have any work experience in this field.
Gosh, you.
Even you, who can't tell different tastes apart, work as a team manager.
Then why can't Kang San do so when he's much better than you?
Well... That's true, though.
If Kang San joins the company,
he'll be of great help to you, Jae Hyun.
You're absolutely right, Grandfather.
Even though Jae Hyun talked as if he were against the idea,
he always fully supports your decision, 100 percent.
- Right? - Yes.
I'm in front of Ok Mi Rae's house right now.
Should I go in? Or will you come out?
Who is it?
Ju Hyuk, I noticed your phone kept ringing.
Ju Hyuk, what's the text message about?
Well... The thing is...
I'm very sorry.
A buyer just arrived at the airport.
I think I should go now.
What do you mean a buyer is in Korea?
You didn't tell me about it yesterday.
Actually, I was personally acquainted with him when I was in the US.
He said he came to Korea urgently during his business trip in Asia.
Oh, I see. Then you should go see him.
You have to work even on weekends.
I feel bad that you can't rest.
I'm sorry that I have to leave when you invited me over.
I'm sorry, Mi Rae.
That's okay.
Go back in.
Hey, Ju Hyuk.
Were you uncomfortable meeting my family today?
You suddenly seemed upset.
It's nothing you should worry about.
By any chance,
is it because I sided with Mr. Geum?
Of course not.
I became a little sensitive because of the meeting with the buyer.
Oh, I see.
Then get there safely, Ju Hyuk.
Okay. I'll call you later.
Okay.
Cha Yu Jin, are you out of your mind?
What are you talking about?
How dare you show up there?
Had I not gone there,
you wouldn't have agreed to see me.
I told you I wanted to end it with you!
By the way,
how did you know I was there?
I guess you don't know that I'm close to Ok Mi Rae.
I even enrolled in her art class.
What?
Are you saying you're the new attendee in her class?
What kind of ruse are you cooking up?
I'm cooking up a ruse?
That hurts my feelings.
Cha Yu Jin.
You're not in your right mind right now.
Why can't you see my love for you?
I have no intention of getting in the way of the man I love.
Under one condition. You must not leave me.
Shall we go on a date since we're out?
Let's go out of town. What do you say?
Gosh. I might get eczema on my hands.
Mom told me not to do any housework.
Sang Soo, I'm home.
Hey. Are you getting back from Chairman Hwang's house?
- Yes. Did you have lunch, Sang Soo? - Yes.
I had ramyeon with Jan Di.
I made perfect ramyeon...
with green onions and eggs.
By the way, did you ask Chairman Hwang to promote me?
Well... No.
What?
When will you talk to him about that?
Sang Soo, actually,
Chairman Hwang offered me a permanent position at Hwang Dong Food.
What? Is that true?
Yes, an assistant manager position.
Assistant manager?
So? Did you accept his offer?
No, not yet.
Oh, that's a relief.
If you don't want a position at Hwang Dong Food,
ask him to promote me instead. Can you do that for me?
Why won't you answer me?
Do you want to be Assistant Manager Geum at Hwang Dong Food?
If I developed food products for a large company like Hwang Dong Food,
a lot of people would taste and enjoy my food.
To be honest, I do think it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Oh, I see.
Anyway, Sang Soo,
until I make my decision,
please don't tell anyone in our family.
I'm asking you.
Okay.
Then I'll go to the store.
Sure. Whatever.
Wait. Hold on a second, Dad.
Jan Di, I didn't know you were home.
Yes. Anyway, if you're going to the store, I'll go with you.
Why? What's this? Are you going to study at the store?
Well... Of course.
I feel emotionally stable enough to study when you're by my side.
There's something fishy about you.
Come on. What are you talking about?
Uncle Sang Soo, I'll get going.
Okay. Go on.
- We'll get going, Sang Soo. - Go on.
- See you later. - Okay. Let's go.
Hey, you...
I, too, think there's something fishy about Jan Di.
By the way,
can't he ask the chairman to do both me and Kang San a favor?
Like a buy-1-get-1-free deal?
(Sun Bakery, Hong Do's Side Dishes)
Is Kyu Sun's bakery around here?
Yes, sir. It's Sun Bakery. This is it.
Right. Then go back and wait in the car.
Understood, sir.
Doo Ho.
Because you make such delicious bread for me every day,
I'm getting fat.
You don't have to worry about gaining weight.
You would still be pretty if you gained weight.
- Doo Ho, you have cream on your chin. - Yes?
Is it gone now?
No, it's a little further down.
Wait. No.
Stay still. I'll wipe it for you.
- Okay. - Just a second. Stay still, okay?
My goodness.
You're such a klutz.
Done. Good.
- Oh, my. Kyu Chul. - What?
Hi. Did you have many customers? It's the weekend.
I didn't expect you to come here. What brings you here?
Since you kept complaining that I had never visited here,
I decided to stop by.
But why are you so surprised? I feel like I shouldn't be here.
I'm not surprised.
Is this your baker?
It's nice to meet you. I'm Kim Doo Ho.
Likewise. I'm Kyu Sun's elder brother.
- Yes. - Well... Mr. Kim.
Shouldn't you take the bread out by now?
Yes, that's right. I should do that.
- I'll go back to the kitchen now. - Okay.
Kyu Chul, why are you staring at him like that?
I'm trying to figure out what kind of person he is.
What? Why would you figure that out?
What do you mean why? He works at your bakery.
As your brother, I should check to see if he's a decent person.
Kyu Chul, do you want to have some bread?
Why don't you come and sit here?
I'm good.
I was worried because Ju Hyuk said your baker looked so menacing.
Why?
Do you not like him either?
I'm not sure.
Maybe he's the type that looks tough on the outside,
but is actually thoughtful...
and works hard and quietly.
Especially when a woman runs a business by herself just like you,
at least you need a baker like him so that people don't look down on you.
You're right, Kyu Chul.
When a drunk customer caused a commotion,
Doo Ho... I mean, my baker twisted his arm to stop him.
Really? Did that really happen?
Yes. He was so brave that he kicked the customer out.
It was like a scene from an action movie.
Kyu Chul, what was the old movie starring Chow Yun Fat?
What was the one where Chow Yun Fat wears a trench coat,
shoots guns with both hands,
and chews a matchstick? Do you remember that movie?
I'll get going now.
What? Already?
I'm just stopping by before meeting someone.
Oh, I see. Then I'll see you at home.
Bye, Kyu Chul.
What movie was it?
"A Chinese Ghost Story?"
(Hong Do's Side Dishes)
Dad, shall I help you?
No, I can do it by myself.
By the way, what's gotten into you?
You've been staying where I can see you...
and studying all day long.
Then should I not study?
You should study.
Seeing you study hard makes me happy.
Then that's all that matters.
But I do find it suspicious that you've been glued to me,
which is unlike you.
What are you talking about?
You're saying I'm suspicious again.
Hey, Kang San.
Oh, my. Uncle Ho Sik.
Hi, Jan Di. You were here too.
Hi.
- Kang San, can you do me a favor? - Sure.
I have to go to a meeting of the club I'm a member of.
But Ho Rang told me to fix the easels at the academy.
Can you please do it for me?
No, Dad.
Uncle Ho Sik, I won't let my dad go there.
Jan Di, what are you doing? Ho Sik must be embarrassed.
Gosh. It's not like that.
What if you run into Ms. Jang again?
What? Is that why you've been glued to me all day?
Yes. As Grandma stepped out,
she asked me to make sure to keep you...
away from Ms. Jang.
I can't believe Auntie Hong Do.
Don't get the wrong idea, Ho Sik. I'm sure she said it jokingly.
I don't know about that.
You said you were running late. Hurry up and go.
I'll fix all the easels, so don't worry about it.
No. I said I wouldn't let you do that.
Jan Di.
Fine. I'll let you go if you let me go with you.
What do you say?
Again?
Ho Rang, meet me at the pasta restaurant on the hill this evening.
Yes. I'll tell Kang San to come, so don't worry.
Okay. See you then, Ho Rang.
- Mr. Geum. - Gosh, you startled me.
Are you going to meet Ho Rang, by any chance?
Gosh, no.
I'm not going to meet her.
Oh, gosh. They only served galbitang without even much meat in it...
to the guests at their daughter's wedding.
But they bragged so much that their son-in-law was a doctor.
I mean, it took me four hours by bus to get there and back.
So were you jealous?
What? I wasn't jealous at all.
My eldest son-in-law is a lawyer.
Then why would I be jealous?
I'm back.
- Come on in. - Welcome back home, Ye Ju.
Oh, gosh. Ye Ju, where did you go dressed like a sly vixen?
And why did you stay out for so long?
I met a friend.
Which of your friends did you meet,
wearing that lip color?
Did you meet a guy?
No. You don't know her.
Come on. It's obvious that you met a guy.
Who is this guy? Tell me about him.
Mom, I'm not the one you should keep in check right now.
Who else should I keep in check other than my youngest daughter?
Oh, dear. Mother, you must have forgotten about your younger son-in-law already.
What?
Ye Ju, are you talking about Kang San?
Actually, it's not about Kang San.
I think Mr. Geum is cooking up a ruse with Ho Rang again.
They're cooking up a ruse?
What do you mean by that?
(Horang Art Academy)
Jan Di.
You don't pull pranks on Ho Rang these days, right?
Well... Of course, I don't do that.
Oh, no. My baby hair keeps falling out.
Don't change the subject and answer my question properly.
That's not what I'm doing. It's hard to tie my hair with this hair tie.
Come here. I'll tie your hair for you.
No.
"No?"
Who could be coming here at this hour?
Could it be Ho Rang?
My goodness. Ms. Jang must've come to see you, Dad.
See? I told you so.
- Ms. Ok. - Ms. Ok.
Jan Di.
Mr. Geum, what are you doing here?
I'm here to fix the easels as Ho Sik asked.
What about you?
Jun Pyo left his badminton racket here.
My gosh. I'm surprised that the nerd forgot about it.
This is it, right?
This is Jun Pyo's.
Jan Di, that hair tie looks good on you.
How does my hair look? Isn't it pretty?
Yes, it's really pretty.
She likes the hair tie so much because you gave it to her.
But it's hard to tie my hair with it.
My hair looks messy, right?
I offered to tie her hair,
but she said, "No."
Mr. Geum, do you tie her hair too?
My dad practiced tying hair when I was a little girl.
He even practiced?
But he's still not good at it.
Jan Di, then shall I do it for you?
Are you serious?
Yes. Come and sit here.
- Here you go. - Okay.
Maybe we shouldn't have asked you to eat with us.
I hope we're not wasting your time.
No, you're not. I wanted to have tteokbokki since it'd been a while.
My gosh. It's so spicy.
Jan Di, I think you ordered the wrong dish. This is too spicy.
Come on. It's not too spicy.
It's not spicy at all for me.
No.
Eating only spicy food like this can damage your stomach.
Here.
Have some gimbap too.
What are you doing?
You should eat vegetables too.
Oh, my. I didn't realize this until now.
Ms. Ok, you nag so much, which is outrageous.
"Outrageous?"
Yes, totally. Outrageous and sick
Jan Di, it's because Ms. Ok is outrageously fond of you.
- Just eat your food. - Of course, I know that.
What's this?
Oh, no. What should I do? Gosh. This is my favorite shirt.
Stop. If you rub it like that, the stain will spread more widely.
You should press the stain like this.
Like this?
That's good.
Yes, Father.
Sorry? Where do you want me to go?
I'll teach them a lesson. Darn.
- Cheers, Father. - Cheers.
Oh, my.
Auntie Hong Do.
Oh, my. How did you know I was here, Ms. Ma?
Where is Kang San?
My gosh. Are you here to keep my son in check?
I guess Ye Ju told you right away.
Answer my question. Where is Kang San?
I told him to come, but he said he couldn't make it.
He said he was having tteokbokki with Jan Di.
Oh, is that right?
Oh, boy. Maybe because I didn't have much food at the wedding earlier,
the scent of cheese is so good.
Then why don't you join us, Auntie Hong Do?
Shall I?
My goodness.
My, it's so nutty and aromatic.
It melts in my mouth. How tasty.
Oh, my. Ho Rang.
- Yes? - Are you going to pay for this?
Well... Yes, I guess.
I see.
Oh, right.
Mr. Geum, can you pour me a glass of wine too?
Let me have some since it's been a while.
I see that you're so excited...
because my son didn't come here.
Come on. Pour me some more. This is too little.
Oh, my gosh.
I don't even know.
Cheers.
- Fine. Cheers. - Cheers.
- Ho Rang, clink your glass too. Cheers. - Cheers.
My, it's as sweet as honey. It's sweet, indeed.
Stop. We should go that way.
Kang San wouldn't fall for Ho Rang so easily...
since he's still waiting for my dear daughter Sun Ju.
So listen to me carefully, Mr. Geum.
Don't waste your time and energy.
Do you understand, Sun Dal?
What? Did you just call me by my first name?
My gosh. I didn't know you had a bad drinking habit.
- Try to walk straight, will you? Gosh. - Oh, dear.
Why am I feeling so dizzy?
The ground is spinning around.
- Oh, my. - Gosh.
What?
Who is that?
Ms. Ok, was the tteokbokki very spicy for you?
Yes, it was so spicy.
- That's my dear Kang San. - Ms. Ok can't handle spicy food.
- She can't handle spicy food. - Yes, I can.
- Who's that woman? - I thought you couldn't eat spicy food.
- That's true. - Yes, that's him.
- I can't eat a lot of spicy food either. - Jan Di!
Don't you know that either?
Oh, my. Grandpa is over there.
Oh, Grandma is with him.
Grandpa and Grandma.
Oh, my baby. My sweetie pie.
- Hello. - Hello.
Oh, my. I didn't recognize you.
You're Jan Di's art teacher.
But why are the three of you coming together?
We ran into her at the art academy.
My gosh. You reek of alcohol.
Grandma, did you have a drink?
Yes, I did.
Father, did you have a drink with her?
Yes, we had a good time having a glass of wine.
By the way, I heard you were going to be...
Kyu Sun's niece-in-law. Am I right?
Yes, that's right.
Actually, Kyu Sun and I are so, very close.
And we sort of made a promise to marry each other.
To marry each other?
Yes, that's right.
Father, you're drunk.
Ms. Ok, you should go home. It's getting late.
Right. I have to go that way.
- Then I'll get going. - Yes.
Jan Di, I'll see you at the academy.
- Ms. Ok, go home safely. - Go home safely.
Mom, you don't think something's going on between Kang San and Ms. Ok, right?
Hey, is there someone...
other than Ho Rang?
What do you mean by that?
It's up to you, Ju Hyuk. I'm sorry to disappoint you.
This photo will be so useful. Where did you take it?
The thing is, Ms. Choi...
I've decided to focus on my job as your caregiver.
Instead...
