(Episode 87)
Dad!
Dad.
Oh, you're Ga On, right?
Hello.
I saw your picture on Director Boo's phone.
She's Director Boo's daughter.
- Hello. - Hi.
You're pretty, aren't you?
What brings you here?
Hey.
I get to see you here.
I'm sorry, but you should go first.
I'll tell the managing director myself.
Let's go.
See you again.
She takes after her dad, right?
Do you think so?
But is she in middle school or high school?
He's her dad?
This is a new side of him.
I agree.
Why don't we hurry? I'm hungry.
Sure.
Eat up.
Thank you for the food.
Why did you come unannounced?
What if I was out or in a meeting?
Then I could just go home.
It's not like I came here on a plane.
You should eat. You must be starving.
Okay.
But about that woman, Megan...
Is she in a higher position than you?
She looked so charismatic.
Why do you want to know that?
Are you upset about something?
No, why?
Your face looks...
I shouldn't have come.
I'm just stressed out about work.
Don't worry about it and eat.
To be honest, I came here because I wondered about her.
She came looking for me, so it seemed strange.
Are you guys interested in each other?
We're not.
Even if you're not,
she might have a feeling for you.
I'm not trying to be nosy about your personal life.
Ms. Gong Gye Ok didn't make sense,
but I'm not against you seeing someone.
You should see someone.
I want you to see someone.
Ga On!
I'll take care of that myself.
Ga On, I'm not dating anyone because of you,
so don't feel anxious about it.
Okay.
Did she leave?
Yes.
What did she say?
Doesn't she wonder who I am?
She thinks we're colleagues.
Let's keep it that way until the end.
Ga On is too young to handle the truth.
You know what I'm saying, right?
What's this?
The partner...
Over here.
Thank you.
I collected these when I heard about her.
Please give it to her for me.
These are stationary.
I bought something fancy that kids her age would like.
And this is a bag.
I'm not sure if it'd suit her.
Also, this is a pajama.
I bought a size for a 16-year-old. It'd fit, won't it?
And this...
That's enough.
I'll give it to her when the right time comes.
Okay.
What did you have with Ga On?
What does she like to have? Is she a picky eater?
No, she's not.
She likes everything.
I'm glad.
It seems like she gets good grades.
Which subject is her favorite?
Is she a good athlete?
I've never liked to exercise when I was her age.
You know that, right?
She's good at everything.
Don't worry.
Has she ever been ill?
Did your family take good care of her?
They all like her.
Especially, my dad cherishes her.
I see.
What about me?
Did she ever want to find me?
Did you...
tell her I was dead?
Cheong Ah.
Think of Ga On first.
She...
looked a lot like me.
No matter if it was fake,
it wasn't long when you were our stepmother...
Is it the truth, Ms. Gong? With Sul Ak?
If Ms. Gong Gye Ok is in such a relationship with Sul Ak,
it doesn't make sense...
that she manages Father's property and is the adult guardian.
Jin Soon.
Are you frustrated too?
Would you like to go for a walk with me?
Let's do that.
Did you have lunch?
It was hectic in the office today.
There you go.
Did you take a walk with Jin Soon?
Yes, what are you doing?
I'm making a kite.
Kite?
So that kids can play with it.
- They would like it. - Yes.
Would they have flown a kite before?
When I was young,
I remember my grandpa making this for me.
I see.
Geez, the strings are tangled.
If you do that, you'd tangle it more.
When you have a knot and you try to force it loose,
you'll get it more tangled.
Then what should I do?
Hand it over.
Stop everything,
and do it slowly.
See where it started to tangle.
If you find the knot,
you should space it out and untangle it.
I see.
If you get in a knot, you stop and take it slow.
Look where it started to tangle.
It seems simple but cool.
Where do you think it started?
Pardon?
I'm not in a knot.
I'm still tight and withstanding.
I don't have any knots.
I'm regretting it...
now that I've become old.
That was a long time ago.
So where do I link the string?
You made this well.
"This vast universe and infinite time."
"Rejoicing to live on the same planet as you..."
Isn't this awesome?
It's a proposal Carl Sagan wrote to his wife while writing this book.
Really?
Maybe he did something wrong to his wife.
You're so twisted.
Here. It's a gift.
For me?
It's my favorite book. You must read it too.
Just thinking of the galaxy,
you'll see how it's a miracle that we met like this on Earth.
Come in quickly!
Why did you tell me to come at this night?
You should have talked about it during the day.
Be quiet! Come here quickly.
Stop!
It was on my mind as I couldn't feed you earlier.
- Gosh. - Give me water.
Drink water!
It's a good flavor, right?
Dad picked it himself.
Hey. Forget the mushrooms and pack me some kimchi.
Why? Is there no kimchi at the gas station?
Gosh. It doesn't taste good!
All right. Wait a minute.
There we go.
Do you want to take all of this?
- Shall I? - Yes.
Is there anything else?
There are stir-fried anchovies and seasoned eggplants.
Shall I pack that too?
- Yes. Pack them too! - Okay.
- Be careful. - Okay.
You have nothing to eat.
That's bad for my honey.
- Pack it quickly. - All right.
I have to go before Dad comes out.
But it was bloody earlier.
Does it make sense between Sul Ak and Ms. Gong?
Anyway, Min Joo is good at framing people.
She just doesn't leave them alone.
I was also very confused in the middle.
Yes. We should stand in Gong Gye Ok's line...
rather than Min Joo.
She's the ulterior supervisor.
What powerful supervisor? She's just the power herself.
So from now on, we should lobby...
to Gye Ok so she can fully understand...
that we are allies.
You can't keep staying at that gas station forever...
as you're old.
I don't know if we are again the only ones who miscalculated.
Hurry up.
- No one's here. Hurry up and go. - Okay. I ate well.
What's wrong with you? It'll smell.
Gosh, give me a kiss.
Kiss me once.
Hey!
Geum Gang.
Sul Ak. You came now?
Why are you coming so late?
That just happened.
But why kimchi in the middle of the night?
This kimchi is such a waste.
You'll wake Dad up.
Did you come here for kimchi?
That's not the problem. Hey.
Come here.
It stinks!
Hey.
The house was turned upside down during the day.
Why? Again?
Ms. Gong got a kangaroo court from Min Joo.
What exactly do you mean?
She suspected the relationship between you two.
She already told you guys, but you ignored her,
so she told her to reveal in front of Dad.
Min Joo did?
Can you come out in front of the house for a minute?
It's too late. I'm going to bed.
Okay. Good night.
Gong Gye Ok from Majang-dong.
You've become a softie.
I lived even though I lost my house and money.
This won't even kill me.
- Mom! - You're not sleeping?
I waited for you.
Gosh. What's wrong with you?
Mom. I can sleep with you tonight, right?
- Hug me tightly. - Why?
Is there something wrong?
Yes. I'm in trouble.
Why?
I'm so lonely at night.
Goodness me.
I get hot and stuffy. I'm not lonely at all.
Why? We can turn on the fan.
Let's hug and sleep.
Now!
Stand over here.
What are you going to teach me in the morning?
While we do morning exercise, I have something to teach you.
What is it?
Of course, in a few days, I will protect you,
but you still have to sleep by yourself...
until you move out of the studio.
What if some brat comes into the house again?
I only have a few days left.
No. You don't know what will happen.
And do you know how scary the world is these days?
You need to at least know...
how to protect yourself anytime and anywhere.
- All right? - Okay.
Fine. Then...
I'll teach you self-defense.
- Self-defense? - Yes.
Now try head locking me from behind.
Like this?
No, like this. Headlock me properly.
- Like this? - That's it.
- Someone head locked from behind. - Yes.
Then, use your elbow...
- to strongly hit the side. - Yes.
Then that person will scream in pain, right?
At that time, as the arm becomes loosen,
twist the arm back.
Then what?
It can be a little difficult here.
Make sure to hit the knees...
Oh, my gosh.
You're good.
Good job.
Like this?
Yes. Well done. Let go now.
Should I hit the knee once more?
That's enough!
I'm sorry. Did it hurt?
No way. It doesn't hurt.
I'm a man. Why would it hurt?
By the way,
are you a black-belt holder?
No. I just did what you told me to do.
Really?
What did you eat for breakfast?
Just rice.
I see.
Let's go. You will do self-defense well by yourself.
Wait for me!
Did it hurt a lot?
No.
I think you're tearing up.
No, I'm not!
I'm sorry.
Who is it?
Pan Geum!
Did you put honey in my house? Why do you keep coming?
Honey? Of course.
In English, it's "honey."
Honey called Pan Geum.
What are you doing?
Pan Geum.
Are you still angry?
I got people to find out about the Tteot Coffee Shop.
How?
Young Bae...
introduced the CEO of the detective agency that Geum Gang knows,
so they're working on it now.
Yes. Sit down for now.
I came to play with you as it's your day off today.
Geez. Who is playing with who?
Get ready to be surprised.
Hey. Where's your pot and cutting board?
What are you trying to do?
Ta-da!
Wait.
If we're going to eat, you should have scooped a dish each.
That's because you don't know.
Originally, pasta is...
put on one plate and eaten by two people.
Eat quickly.
It does look like pasta.
What the heck are you doing?
Thank you for working hard...
to run around for the guests in this hot summer.
Please stress out today and work hard again tomorrow.
And...
Ta-da!
I'll start by giving the vacation expenses...
that Mr. Boo has specially prepared.
- Great job! - Thank you!
- Thank you. - Take this.
Here you go. Thank you.
Look how lively she is.
You're going to provoke me?
You'll still rebel even when I stomp on you?
- The main person is here! - Yes.
Today, this party was created...
to celebrate Baek Doo's entrance to the soup room,
so please support him. Now, a round of applause!
- You're good! - You're handsome!
You are handsome!
Please say a word.
Okay.
I'm the next Chef of Buruna Noodles, Boo Baek Doo.
I may be inadequate, but if you help me,
I'll make a young and innovative Buruna Noodles.
Make a toast.
It's embarrassing.
Then,
on behalf of my beloved Baek Doo, I will make a toast.
I will give three cheers.
For the health of all of us.
Mount Baekdu!
Let's go to the mountain with two feet until the age of 100!
No. Because this is a cold noodle restaurant.
Let's cut off and eat cold noodles until the age of 100!
Chew without dentures!
You two are like old men.
Then I will buy the second round,
so let's all go together for the second round.
I'm so excited!
Let's just wrap it up here.
We have work tomorrow.
Yes. Let's clean it up now.
- Right. - Sure.
Thank you for this memorable evening.
It means a lot to us.
Don't mention it. Of course, I should do it.
What is it?
Well, about my friend from yesterday.
Megan?
Do you want to see her with me?
Why?
Sorry?
You don't have to see her if you feel uncomfortable.
No, I'm okay with it.
We should see her.
Right. I'll fix a time.
Okay.
Something is definitely going on between them.
You're still here.
Yes. We had a get-together at the restaurant.
I'll take you home since it's late.
It's okay.
I was going for a run as it's stuffy.
I can run after the bus today.
Good. I have something to tell you.
I heard about it from Geum Gang.
You were in a tough spot because of Min Joo.
I was prepared for something like it.
And it's not like it was all made up.
I should've been the one to cope with it.
I'm sorry...
and thank you for holding out.
Sul Ak.
You must have a lot of questions.
There's so much I want to tell you.
But I'm not sure if it'll help...
or hurt you if I say it.
Sul Ak.
Whatever happens,
I don't want to hurt you. No.
I won't let it happen.
This is all I can say.
It must make you so frustrated.
No, it doesn't.
Thank you...
for trying to tell me.
I mean thank you for saying that.
To be honest,
with Geum Gang, Han Ra,
and Mr. Boo all there,
I was embarrassed...
and so sad that I tore up...
as I was treated like I was guilty.
That's not all.
Soo Min also said...
you're not the one.
She said it's too steep...
and has too many peaks.
I...
lived my life to the fullest...
and did nothing to be ashamed of.
But I wondered why I should be treated like this.
For what?
I can meet other guys.
You're not the only one.
I tried to give up everything,
but it doesn't work my way.
I think...
I like you a lot.
(Brilliant Heritage)
How did we get here?
Nothing's going on between their third son and you, right?
Didn't you meet while studying abroad?
- Yes. - No.
- Why do you look at him like that? - Can you show me your hand?
You have long fingers. It's exactly the same.
I hope she didn't notice.
I can't believe it.
