(Episode 55)
She's only 33, but I think working in the marketplace...
made her very sly.
She's so young if she's 33.
Anyway, divorce is an issue but Ms. Gong is the biggest problem.
Ms. Gong?
Is her last name Gong?
Yes, it's Gong Gye Ok.
What is it?
She's 33 and her name is Gong Gye Ok?
Are you okay?
I suddenly have a headache.
I'll call you.
Hey...
What's wrong with her?
Gosh.
I have to have lunch alone.
No way. Did Gye Ok really?
Excuse me.
Yes?
Gye Ok?
So Young.
What happened? Why are you working here?
I'm not working.
I'm just working for the day because they're busy.
Now I get it.
This is why she wanted to cut ties with us.
I will get her for this.
I don't see any money.
I keep seeing flower palanquin.
My father-in-law is a bit old,
but he married a young woman.
Oh, my gosh.
Your father-in-law must be wealthy.
Yes. He's quite loaded.
I mean, she practically won the lotto.
Why would she serve noodles like an idiot?
That naive wench.
(I'm washing the dishes today as well.)
("Kitchen Playlist")
(Beaming part-timer)
(Boo Han Ra checked into Jeong Mi Hee's Meat Restaurant.)
(Welcome. You've never seen a part-timer like this, right?)
Good.
Hey, isn't the meat ready?
Coming!
He's coming now.
Hey, look at his profile. He's so good-looking.
He looks better than the photo.
I came here after seeing your social media.
You look like an idol. Are you aspiring to become one?
Please enjoy.
- Okay. - Sure.
Ms. Jeong, did you see that? Those customers are here to see me.
How did you do that?
Well, I tagged our restaurant on my social media...
to promote it.
Why would you flirt with anyone? You look easy.
What do you mean flirt?
This is called marketing.
Don't you know what an influencer is?
So that's why they recognize you.
If you give me five percent of sales per table,
then I'll promote the restaurant even more.
- Five percent? - Ms. Jeong, don't do that.
Why? The more customers the merrier.
We hired you as a kitchen assistant, not a model.
Come here.
Should I change the signboard to him?
What's wrong with you?
From now on, learn how to butcher the meat next to me.
You're forbidden to be in the hall.
Forget it. You're going to kiss me again, aren't you?
I'm going to report you for a repeated crime.
I won't touch you.
But I can't allow other people's hands on you either.
What?
Hurry up and hold the knife.
You were interested in it. Let me guide you.
Here. Remove the fat first.
I won't do it. I'm not interested.
Hurry up and try.
You'd need to pay thousands of dollars to learn this.
There isn't anyone...
who cut off their fingers while cutting meat, is there?
Why won't there be any? There are loads of people.
I won't do it.
Why did you play hard to get when I'd need to do this?
Hey. You came on to me this time, all right?
When did I come on to you?
Now, try it yourself.
If you hack it to pieces, I'll buy it, so don't worry.
Why are you so down today?
I'm just thinking about what's the meaning of life.
You sound like you're in puberty.
Why? Is your mom totally against you quitting school?
Mom says she'll do an exorcism.
Exorcism?
You mean that exorcism where you beat a drum and stuff?
Yes, so I'd become successful.
I didn't know some people still believe such superstition.
What are you going to do?
You won't be able to quit school.
Hey, do you know what's worse?
What is it now?
She wants to find my dad by doing the exorcism.
This is a comedy.
Aren't you curious about your dad?
No.
But...
I'd like to ask him why he left.
Has he done his deed as long as I'm born?
What about you?
Don't you miss your mom?
Have you never seen her?
Only through the photo.
And it was a photo of her at my age.
I won't be able to recognize her now.
Then she was your dad's...
They were friends.
Have you tried the workbook I gave you last time?
Pardon?
Not yet.
Tell me when you finish doing it.
I'll give you the next one.
Why are you being nice? You're scaring me.
I kind of have multiple personalities.
Oh, I agree.
By the way, about that guy from last time.
- Is he your boyfriend? - What do you mean?
He's my loser uncle.
Don't say hi if you see him again.
Because they keep asking you're my boyfriend, Jang Won.
Anyway, I'm off.
She's just been acting tough.
But did she just call me Jang Won?
That gives me the chills.
It's here.
This is pretty awkward.
Am I overdoing it?
You're home.
How's work?
What is he acting like that?
Should I put it in front of his room?
No.
What is it?
Where are you?
I'm in front of the house. I'm not buying coke.
I'm almost home.
I'm not asking you to buy a coke. Come in quickly.
Hey. Come to my room. Okay?
I'm tired of him.
What is it?
Give this to your grandfather.
What's that?
Just give it to him.
I don't want to. Give it yourself.
Aren't you seeing your boyfriend today?
Stop it.
You're so childish.
I won't make fun of you, so run this errand for me.
Don't tell him it's from me...
and say you found it at the front door. Okay?
Are you Santa Claus or what?
It's nothing weird, is it?
- Take it quickly. Off you go. - Geez.
It's so embarrassing.
He cleaned the bathroom when I told him I'll pay him.
He won't miss his part-time job as a kitchen assistant either.
I think now he got the hang of making money.
It's only the beginning.
Grandfather.
Welcome.
Here you go.
What's this?
Han Ra told me to give it to you.
He said to tell you I got it from the front door, not from him.
What is it?
What?
- Why don't you open it? - Okay.
What would this be?
- It's a hat. - Oh, my. It's great.
I guess he bought it for you to wear it.
Well, I have many hats.
He could've brought it himself, but he asked me.
Why don't you try it on?
Leave it. I'll try it on later.
Why don't you try it on and see if it fits you well?
Here you go.
My gosh.
My goodness. You look ten...
No. You look 20 years younger.
Am I right?
Grandfather, it looks great on you.
Jin Soon, here you go.
You're home.
Is there good news?
You bet.
What is it?
Fill me in.
Han Ra is a changed man.
What does that mean?
He bought a hat for Mr. Boo to wear.
Han Ra did?
Yes. Then he asked Ga On to give it to him being shy...
and won't come out of his room.
I guess he's nervous in there.
That's a first.
What are you doing?
What are you giggling about together?
We were talking about Baek Doo.
We were careful as someone might overhear us.
Don't you hang around together when I'm not present.
Talk only when I'm there.
- All right. - Okay.
This is driving me nuts.
How do I screw her over?
Shall I go there and ruin everything for her?
I can't do that.
It'll come to nothing if she gets kicked out.
That wench must've had a great ambition...
to enter that door to all the troubles in the world.
- Goodness me. - You're home.
You're home in a while.
My gosh. I'm tired.
I have a new business plan to make.
A new business?
Mom, do you remember the time we went to the shaman?
That talk about a flower palanquin.
I do. She mentioned it twice.
Right. Don't you think Gye Ok got married to a rich man?
You're saying that again.
Gye Ok might've wanted to cut ties with us,
but she would've called us if she got married.
Do you think she would marry in secret like you?
What I had was a small wedding, not a secret one.
My goodness. Is that why you called everybody but Gye Ok then?
We only had a meal, not a wedding.
She was too busy to make it.
And what difference would it have made if she came?
We split apart after a short while.
You're right.
When's the exorcism? Don't you have to prepare anything?
Exorcism is not the important thing now.
Don't you remember crying and whining about it?
What are you on about now?
I thought of a business item that will be 100 times more effective.
You'll be so surprised.
What is it?
If you cause any more trouble, I won't care about it.
I'll cut ties with you, not Gye Ok in that case.
It's good news for the family.
I'll tell you about it when things become more certain.
Why is ramyeon so tasty?
Yes, don't you wish we could eat it every day?
Ji Hyun likes jjapaguri.
You guys shouldn't tell Mom you had ramyeon. Got it?
- Okay! - Okay!
It's not good to eat it often.
You can have it once in a while when Mom is not here.
- Got it! - Got it!
You guys are having a blast, aren't you?
Here's your kimchi.
Oh, my. It must be Auntie.
I'm coming!
- Oh, my. Your hairstyle changed. - Yes?
I copied you.
Oh, my. It's hot even though it's after sunset.
What's all this?
It's snacks for the kids...
and some side dishes from the restaurant.
It'd be a hassle to cook in front of the stove in this heat.
- Thank you, Pan Geum. - Here you are.
Here.
- Hello. - Hello, children.
Goodness me, my puppies!
- Auntie, your hairstyle... - Yes?
- Is exactly like our grandmother. - Is that so?
- Auntie. - Kids.
Why don't you eat this?
She bought something tasty for you guys.
- Thank you! - Thank you!
- All right. - Let's go.
My goodness.
- Have a seat here. - Okay.
They seem to grow so quickly.
They are lovely.
Pan Geum, how is Mrs. Yoon doing?
She's a tough one.
She didn't even bat an eye...
and is at the restaurant as if nothing happened.
She's not showing it as has a strong pride,
but she must feel terrible inside.
By the way, Ae Ri is warmhearted.
She never heard anything good from Min Joo,
but she came running after hearing the news.
Even I feel bad, so how terrible must she feel?
It's been so many years since they were part of this family.
You're right.
A family is supposed to console her and change her mind at these times.
I came over to Geum Gang's house thanks to you.
- Pan Geum, come visit me often. - Yes?
Why don't you sleep over since you're here?
Do you want to have a drink too?
That'll be great.
Ae Ri and Geum Gang will probably come late.
Let's get it started.
Soju, beer, rice wine. Which one do you prefer?
Bring whatever you can get your hands on.
All right. Wait for a moment.
Okay!
My goodness.
Min Joo, are you okay?
You drank too much.
I think so.
It felt like I didn't drink much.
Take a rest. I'll get going.
Have a cup of tea.
Okay.
Can I use your bathroom?
Oh, it's here.
You know, right?
I'm always on your side, Min Joo.
I want to be with you...
whether it's the Buruna Noodles branch or anywhere else.
Jung Gwon.
Who could it be?
It's not Baek Doo, is it?
Then he wouldn't ring the bell.
Min Joo.
Go to the room.
Min Joo.
You weren't in bed, were you?
What brings you here this late?
We were worried about you as you didn't even answer our calls.
We thought you'd feel uncomfortable talking at the restaurant.
Come in.
All right.
Is someone here?
It's Baek Doo's shoes he left.
Were his feet this big?
Did you have dinner?
Of course.
Are you really okay?
You must be really upset.
You look haggard.
Sit down.
Sit down, please.
If he wasn't my brother,
I would have beaten him up so much!
He went too far.
The Buruna Noodles branch.
I don't know if that adds up.
What?
What did you just say?
Buruna Noodles branch?
Yes. I need to live too.
Even so!
You know Dad well. How could you?
He didn't even allow me to do that when I'm his son!
That's exactly why.
I'm sorry. I think I need to rest to go to work tomorrow.
Let's go!
Goodbye.
Gosh.
Baek Doo, where are you?
Is Dad okay?
Where are you?
You kept out of touch when you were worried about Dad?
Where are you? Come quickly.
How is Min Joo?
She's not working at the restaurant, right?
She is.
Does she still come to work?
It sounds like her.
Come and beg.
Even though you break up, you have to sort things out.
Can you solve it by running like that?
Sul Ak.
I'm only telling you this.
Everything is definitely my fault,
but it was hard for me too.
I don't know what to say.
Take care of Dad.
I'll get in touch with you again.
Baek Doo!
Seriously.
I just got a call from Baek Doo.
What did he say? Where is he?
He hung up after asking about Dad.
I'm relieved that he contacted you.
I feel bad for him in a way.
Oh, right.
Dad was suspicious of us.
No. That's impossible.
I said I have someone I like and he said he wanted to see him.
What?
Is it Mr. Lee?
It came out as he kept asking.
I thought you were kidding, but you were serious.
Wow, seriously.
No, I'll set up a time if you want.
Shall I call him now?
How about it? I'll say it nicely.
Why does he keep smiling? He's making my heart throb.
I think I'm going to have a nightmare tonight.
It was a horror movie for sure.
Min Joo is a lot scarier than I thought.
She might be a lot worse than Ms. Gong.
Asking for the branch of Buruna Noodles means...
that she wants a tremendous restaurant.
He only got a small coffee shop for us.
The problem is not the restaurant.
Then what is?
She wants to use Buruna Noodles.
Do you know how expensive the name value is?
If Dad passes away after the branch opens,
she can open other branches arguing that's hers.
Then it's the same as saying she'll take over Buruna Noodles.
If she puts her mind to it.
You won't stop coughing.
My previous landlord couldn't stop coughing...
and went to the hospital to find that he has tuberculosis.
Let's go see a doctor with me.
Can you brew some balloon flower root with pear?
Don't be stubborn.
At least, go to the health center in front.
Leave.
He shouldn't be sick.
(Buruna Noodles)
So, this man is Gye Ok's husband?
This old man...
Right.
Thank you.
So I go straight.
Then I go over there and turn over there?
Yes, that's right.
Thank you for your time, young lady.
Right. Bye.
That is him!
But you were trying to completely deceive me?
Shall I go say hello to my brother-in-law?
(Brilliant Heritage)
I should say hello to my in-law's and stay close.
You came knowing everything, right?
I went to Buruna Noodles today.
Whoever it is, someone needs to take charge.
Let's prepare so that the restaurant doesn't cause any problems.
Hurry up.
I want you to get married this year.
Then will you trust me?
- If it's someone I like... - What?
