(Episode 79)
Hello. I'm here.
Hey, hi.
Come on in. Well... Did you send off your wife well?
Yes.
You seem so tired and haggard.
Mr. Geum, I hope you get through this hard time well.
And your family too.
Thank you for saying that, Ms. Hwang.
Did Jan Di go to school?
Of course. She had a hearty breakfast before going to school.
Mr. Hwang, thanks to Hwang Dong Food's campaign,
my family and I were able to say a final goodbye to my wife properly.
Thank you, sir.
I feel so bad to accept your thanks.
I hoped to hear good news, you know.
Oh, my goodness.
Mr. Dong, congratulations.
- Hello. - Hello, Mr. Choi.
You're here again, Mr. Choi.
Yes. Hi.
Mr. Dong.
Let's shake hands, all right?
(Hwang Dong Food)
Sure. Let's do that, Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi, what are you congratulating him for?
Goodness, Mr. Eun. Why haven't you heard the news yet?
How are you going to keep your job at this company without a problem?
Pardon? What do you mean by that?
I know, right? Mr. Eun, you'll go through a lot of hard times.
But... I mean, I'm really curious about it.
I need to know what's going on to congratulate him.
Finally, Chairman Hwang...
approved of Mi Rae marrying Mr. Dong.
This is such great news.
Thank you.
Oh, right. Mr. Ok, why don't we invite Mi Rae to dinner...
so that we can celebrate all together?
Inviting Mi Rae to a dinner with all of us?
What's wrong with that?
The more people celebrating a happy event,
the better, don't you think?
I don't know. What do you think, Mr. Dong?
Well... I think we should ask Mi Rae first.
Anyway, I'm so happy for you, Mr. Dong.
I'm a little sad, but congratulations.
Then I'll start looking for a venue for our celebration right now.
What kind of party theme do you prefer, Mr. Dong?
Better yet, do you know what party theme Mi Rae likes?
Mr. Eun.
Yes, sir.
You just have to focus on your work.
Stop acting like a cheerleader.
Pardon me? I'm acting like a cheerleader?
Also, I don't want anyone to make a fuss congratulating me.
Do you understand?
Oh, I see.
(Hwang Dong Food)
Should I start smoking again?
Suddenly, I'm craving a smoke.
I lined up behind the wrong person. Gosh.
Mr. Eun.
Shall I give you a clean one?
No. That's okay.
Why would I start smoking again when I barely managed to quit?
Mr. Ok told me what happened.
Why did you spy on him for his wife?
You know, I'm the victim here.
She went on a power trip over me.
A power trip?
What else would you call that?
How could I refuse her favor that was practically an order?
By the way, Mr. Eun.
You got on the wrong side of Mr. Dong.
What are you going to do now?
If Mr. Dong becomes Chairman Hwang's grandson-in-law,
he'll have a lot better chance to be the heir to Hwang Dong Food, right?
Since Mr. Ok is quite indifferent about running this company...
and even incompetent at doing it,
it is very likely that Mr. Dong will take his place.
Gosh. Darn it.
Oh, my.
I can see it.
See what?
I can see the dark clouds over your future.
Goodness, you fool.
(Horang Art Academy)
Ho Sik, let's split up and clean different areas.
You clean the office.
I'll go clean the director's office.
What about the classroom?
The classroom?
I'll go clean the classroom, Ms. Jang.
Hold on. Isn't the classroom the biggest place here, Ms. Ok?
I'll clean the classroom. You can keep cleaning here.
But we're almost done cleaning here.
Right, Ms. Ok?
You're right. I'll clean the classroom, Mr. Jang.
No, I'll do it. I can finish it faster than you.
All right. Then let's go to the places each of us is in charge of.
- Yes, Ms. Jang. - See you later.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jang.
Don't say that.
Then see you later.
See you.
Mi Rae.
Oh, my. What brings you here? You didn't even call me.
I know. I wanted to surprise you.
Please have a seat.
What? No, that's okay. I won't stay long.
I just wanted to stop by to see you...
since I had never visited you when this academy was near my bakery.
Now that your grandfather approved of your marriage,
I think I should pay more attention to you and Ju Hyuk.
Oh, I see. I understand.
Mi Rae, the last time you came over to my house,
I couldn't cook for you.
Rather, I enjoyed the food you made for me.
So I want to make dinner for you today.
Actually, I'm here to pick you up.
What do you say? Are you free this evening?
Dinner?
Yes. If you almost finished work, let's go to my house together.
Auntie Kyu Sun, I'm afraid I can't go with you today.
Come on. I already shopped for groceries.
Don't turn down my invitation, okay?
Don't feel burdened and come with me.
I'll make you a very delicious meal.
Well...
Let's go.
(Hwang Dong Food)
(President Dong Kyu Chul)
Sir, Mr. Dong Ju Hyuk is here.
I heard you asked for me.
(Hwang Dong Food)
You may leave. Go home if you're done with your work.
Yes, sir.
You have no plans for tonight, right?
Why?
Let's go home together.
I have something to discuss with you on our way.
Did you call me just to say this?
I'm busy, you know, Father.
Mr. Kwak must've gotten the car ready by now.
Go and wait in the car.
Mi Rae, you don't have to do anything.
Just sit down and rest up.
I'll just change my clothes and do everything by myself, okay?
Yes, Auntie Kyu Sun.
Or you can watch TV in the living room.
I'll stay here.
All right, then. Suit yourself.
Forget it. How many times have I told you I could take care of it on my own?
On your own?
Yes, Father.
If you just kept waiting as you said you would,
and if Mi Rae told her family about your girl problem...
and used it as an excuse to call off the marriage,
what would you do? Tell me.
Mi Rae would never do that.
You too know what Mi Rae is like, Father.
Mi Rae can't push me away so easily.
It's a girl problem of all things.
Even though she has a meek nature,
it won't be easy for her to take you back.
So?
You're going to meet her to sort things out?
Just as you sent Cha Yu Jin to the US?
Have you ever resolved anything without my help?
You almost ruined everything because of Cha Yu Jin.
I was the one who prevented that.
How dare you wise off when you should be thanking me?
You know why I even started this.
The reason why I'm trying to marry Mi Rae...
and dreaming of taking over Hwang Dong Food.
It all started because of my resentment against you.
Have you forgotten that already?
So? Are you blaming me for everything?
That's right. I used Mi Rae because of you.
The beginning of all of this was my resentment against you...
who made Mom lonely and is responsible for her death!
That's a convenient excuse.
You're just justifying your greed.
Be honest, will you?
What did you say?
Ju Hyuk.
Mi Rae.
The things I just heard.
Are all of those true?
That you used me and...
Mi Rae, no.
No, that's not true at all.
President Dong.
How...
How could you do that to me?
Mi Rae!
I thought I heard a noise. You're home, Kyu Chul.
Mi Rae is here too.
- Mi Rae! - Mi Rae...
went out with Ju Hyuk.
What?
I was going to make dinner so that we could eat all together.
But she left already?
Kyu Sun.
Why did you bring her home without telling me?
What do you mean?
Why are you getting mad at me?
You told me to pay more attention to Ju Kyuk and Mi Rae.
That's why I invited Mi Rae.
Mi Rae, wait.
Let go.
Hear me out, please.
What else is there for me to hear?
You never loved me from the get-go.
You just deceived me to use me.
I'm sorry, Mi Rae, but...
I don't want to hear any excuses.
Right.
I'll be honest with you.
I started it...
to take my revenge on my father.
I was blinded by the thirst for revenge. Even if I had to use you,
I wanted to stop my father...
from marrying your mother.
But now...
I love you sincerely.
Since I fell in love with you,
I've been greatly regretting...
the wrong things I did.
When was that?
When?
Yes.
When did you fall in love with me?
I'm not sure.
At some point,
you came into my heart.
How can I believe that?
Right. I understand that you can't believe me.
But right now, my feelings for you...
are truly genuine.
Mi Rae.
Can you please...
forgive me just this once?
Mi Rae, please.
I love you.
Stop.
It's disgusting.
What?
I used to love you.
So I don't want to see you...
become disgusting anymore.
Where's Mother?
She's in her room with Ye Ju.
She couldn't even eat much food.
It'll take her some time to pick up the pieces.
Oh, right. Kang San, do you have a new razor blade?
Why? Have you used up yours?
Yes. Mr. Dong picked on me so harshly at work...
that I got so stressed...
and forgot to buy it on my way home.
I mean, he probably managed to cover up his girl problem.
I heard Chairman Hwang had approved of his marriage.
That's right.
Anyway, I have to shave my face before going to work tomorrow.
Kang San, are you busy?
No. I'll go out to pick it up after cleaning up the table.
Dad, don't go.
Uncle Sang Soo, why do you keep treating my dad like your servant?
I'm not treating him like a servant.
Since I'm tired from working all day long,
your dad is offering to help me out.
My dad worked as a caregiver and at Grandma's store.
He worked all day long too.
Oh, my. How scary.
Look at her confronting me with such a scary glare.
My gosh. I'm so sad that I'm not living with my child.
I miss my dear Se Chan who's in Canada.
I can't tell him to come back to Korea.
Oh, dear. I feel so sorry for myself.
Jan Di, I want to step out to get some fresh air while I'm at it.
All right.
Then Uncle Sang Soo, please give me the money for the razor.
The money for the razor?
Yes.
Come on.
What? Okay. But my wallet is in my room. I'll give you the money later.
Later when?
Then I'll go to your room and bring your wallet right now.
Hey...
Jan Di is so smart and shrewd.
I mean, I was worried she'd be devastated after what happened to Sun Ju.
But I guess I was worried for nothing.
I was so worried about her too. I'm relieved.
It's only possible...
because she has such a reliable father like you by her side.
Ms. Ok greatly helped Jan Di through grief as well...
as if she were Jan Di's mother.
What? Ms. Ok Mi Rae acted like Jan Di's mother?
No, that's not what I meant. She didn't act like Jan Di's mother.
Okay.
Dad, make sure to receive money when you run an errand for Uncle Sang Soo.
- Okay? - I'll do that.
With the money he gave us, I got this coffee flavored milk.
Why are you drinking that at night?
- I'm going to study. - You're lying.
Dad.
Yes? Why?
Have you ever...
thought of getting a girlfriend?
A girlfriend? I don't know.
You don't have to lie to me anymore.
Of course, you have thought about it.
But you held back because you were waiting for Mom. Right?
Oh, my. Don't say such a thing.
I've grown enough to know that.
I fully understand you.
And everyone in my classroom is dating someone.
Hye Ri got a boyfriend too, very recently.
Jan Di.
Are you saying you have a boyfriend too?
Me? As for me...
Of course, I don't have a boyfriend because I've been studying so hard.
I don't have a girlfriend either because you keep me busy always.
By the way, Dad.
Yes? Why?
Thank you...
for waiting for Mom all these years.
Don't say that.
It's been hard for you because of Mom.
I hope...
you will meet a wonderful person...
who loves you so dearly...
and whom you love back sincerely.
I mean it.
But you must not love her more than you love me. That's my condition.
Anyway, it's so nice to have a date...
with you.
Oh, my. Why are you so surprised?
I'll be your girlfriend until you get one.
Relax your shoulder.
It's so strange to see you acting like this.
It feels really strange.
- You're laughing? - Relax your shoulder, Dad.
- You're laughing? - Yes, I am.
- Like this? - No.
That's too low. It's uncomfortable. Stand straight.
You can eat with your family.
Why are you eating ramyeon here with me?
Gosh. You're so slow-witted.
Ms. Ma has been depressed lately.
If I say anything to make her upset,
I'd be in trouble.
Do you have any more kimchi?
This is all I have. So just eat.
Right. Ms. Ma must've been so out of it...
that she forgot to give you kimchi.
Wait. Right. I can go and bring some for you. I'll be right back.
He said he was afraid he might get in trouble.
Mom.
I brought you food.
Mom. Come on. Please sit up and eat some.
Gosh. What's wrong with you? I said I had no appetite.
Until when will you keep refusing to eat because of Sun Ju?
You shouldn't have acted all strong in front of Jan Di and Kang San...
if you were going to be like this.
Hey.
Don't even breathe a word...
about me being in this state to Jan Di and Kang San, okay?
All right.
I won't tell them.
Try to eat just one bite, at least.
For your youngest daughter who brought you the food. Here.
Goodness. Hey.
I really have no appetite. I don't think I can swallow this.
Mom.
You can't work at the store, right?
I don't know.
Oh, my. Hey, Ye Ju. Did Kang San leave for work?
Yes. What are you doing here?
I came here to pick up some kimchi, but I couldn't find it.
The fridge is totally packed.
Where are you going to take kimchi?
To Mr. Kim's room.
My roommate said he had no kimchi left.
- Okay. I'll find it for you. - Thanks.
Oh, my.
She didn't even touch the food.
Has Ms. Ma not been eating any food?
Since my mom found out about Sun Ju,
she hasn't been eating...
or sleeping well.
Well, Ms. Ma loves her children more than anything else in the world.
Why would she be fine?
Give me a minute, Mr. Geum.
Sure, Ye Ju.
Why did you ask me to see you out here?
I'm sorry for your loss.
What was that?
And this is for you.
(2. The center of mass of a triangle)
What is this notebook full of notes?
I wondered why you didn't come to school.
And I heard about your mom from Auntie Mi Rae.
So I copied the notes I took in class.
I'm not trying to make fun of you for not getting good grades.
That's not my intention, so don't get the wrong idea.
Thank you for this. It'll be helpful for me.
Jan Di, you must be devastated and sad.
Why wouldn't I be?
Kids who have both mom and dad would never understand though.
Also, I'd like to apologize to you again.
I'm sorry I teased you, talking about your mom leaving home.
What?
Back then, I was an idiot.
I just teased you without thinking much.
I realized just recently...
how hurtful it must've been for you.
It's been weighing on my mind.
I've been having trouble sleeping over the past few days.
I'm really sorry, Jan Di.
I'll get going now.
Ms. Ma.
Oh, my.
Mr. Geum, what brings you to my room?
I heard you had been refusing to eat.
How could I just sit back and do nothing?
I cooked ramyeon for you.
Goodness. I guess Ye Ju blabbered about me.
But where is Ye Ju? Why did you come instead of her?
Where else would she be now? She's at the store.
Anyway, try this.
Humanist Geum Sun Dal's ramyeon. Try it.
What's "zumanist?"
Is it something related to a zoo?
Gosh. How ignorant.
Well, that's not important. Anyway, when I offer to make ramyeon,
no woman has refused. No one.
My goodness. I'm good.
You should have this. Here you go.
What if you fell seriously ill and never recovered from it?
Do you want my son to nurse you for the rest of his life?
Eat up.
Thank you.
How does it taste? It's good, isn't it?
When you don't have much appetite,
ramyeon is way better than rice.
Once you put the noodles in your mouth, they just slide down your throat.
Just like a long, wavy earthworm.
Gosh. You totally ruined my appetite.
I understand it must be hard to move on after losing your child.
But for the sake of your other children and our dear Jan Di,
you have to pull yourself together.
Do you realize how many people in your family you have to take care of?
Well, Jan Di, Ye Ju,
Kang San, and Sang Soo.
The ones living here alone are as many as four.
My gosh. Why would you take me out?
Fine. Including you, the freeloader, there are five in my family.
Exactly. You must stay healthy. Do you understand?
Goodness.
I never imagined...
that I would receive comfort from you.
When you regain your energy,
I'll take you to a dance club and let you enjoy yourself.
When you go there, you'll find comfort... No, I mean,
you will find joy in life.
Goodness, you. I'm fine.
Oh, my. Seeing that smile of yours,
I realize that you're a little bit pretty.
Well...
I think you look very much like an actress that I know.
Or not.
What?
You owe me 50 dollars.
Gosh. This is the second time you've ruined my appetite.
I'm saying you should finish all of it.
Good grief. He always makes it hard for me to like him.
Mi Rae, can I talk to you for a moment?
I have nothing to say to you.
Are you really going to end it with me like this?
I've already made up my mind.
You've made up your mind?
Don't you think of the elders?
Must we break up after all that happened? What about your mother and grandfather?
And what about the shock they'll get?
Even so, continuing a fake relationship...
would be the same as deceiving my grandfather and mother.
Mi Rae, it's different now. I love you.
I love you.
I've decided to end things with you.
And nothing can change my mind.
So leave now, please.
I can't leave like this.
I won't ever give up on my love.
It's not love that you won't give up on.
It's the granddaughter of the Hwang Dong Food family.
Get in the car. Let's go somewhere quiet and talk more.
I said I didn't want to hear any more excuses of yours.
Come with me.
Let go of me. You're hurting me.
Hey, Mr. Dong!
What are you doing?
Just be on your way.
No, I can't do that.
Ms. Ok said she didn't want to go.
Who are you to butt in?
Let go right now!
You'd better leave before you cause a bigger commotion.
Why you little...
Grandma, I'll meet a friend before going home.
Hey, you're acting suspiciously. Who is that?
Mi Rae and Ju Hyuk, get married until the end of next month.
Thank you.
How do you feel now that your dream came true?
Well... Grandpa.
Mi Rae! Are you in your right mind?
Say that again! Right now!
