----
- [Episode 34] - I'm on my way out now.
I'm going to work and then I'll drop by when it's over.
I'm happy because I can see you every day,
but don't you feel upset about quitting school?
It's all right.
I can always go back later.
Okay.
See you later, mom.
Why didn't you call? We could've missed each other.
I've been waiting since three hours ago to surprise you.
Really?
It's a joke.
I came a while ago.
You told me on the phone last night that you would leave by eight o'clock.
This is good.
Present for changing jobs.
Changing jobs?
I love gifts. I won't decline them.
Oh, they're shoes!
You have to stand the whole day.
They say if you buy them shoes, they'll run away. Will you be okay?
If you run away, I'll follow you.
My father has never said such a thing to me before,
but he must be very lonely after Mi-soon left.
He needed my help, so I decided to do that.
That's great. I get to eat a lot of Chinese food now.
You know I love black bean noodles, right?
You can look forward to it.
Why does your face look thinner lately?
Are you sick?
No.
I'm not sick.
Then why do you keep smiling?
Practice.
I'm practicing.
They say when a person changes, he's about to die.
I was joking.
You kept smiling, so I thought you were in a good mood.
If it wasn't funny, let's just eat.
I wondered where I got my humor from.
It was from you.
A person must be serious. What's good about throwing jokes around?
Then...
what did I get from father?
You're very strange lately.
You ask me questions you've never asked before.
I didn't ask you because I wasn't curious.
I couldn't ask you because you always turned serious like this whenever I did.
I won't ask you. Keep eating.
No, I'm done.
I'll be excused first.
Are you going to work?
To where?
I should've fired Mr. Park earlier.
You didn't tell my mother, did you?
I'm asking you where you're going.
Gahwamansasung.
The place where my ex-and-current-lover is at.
So you've made up your mind already.
There would be no use to try to stop you.
Look.
That's why I-
I got it.
I don't like a man who threw away his career to get his ex-wife back either.
Until I find a replacement, I have to keep working for your mother.
Instead,
this is the last day
I come into this room.
If you leave, there will really be no one by my mother.
You're going to live with your in-laws forever?
Then again,
as long as your mother is here, you won't be able to hold Bong Hae-ryung back.
I'll hire a good person.
Good luck.
I won't tell your mother myself,
but it's only a matter of time before she finds out.
Starting from today, she'll work\ in the kitchen with all of you.
Say hello.
Okay.
It's been a while, so I might be clumsy. I may be inadequate,
but let's work well together. I'll do my best to learn.
Mr. Bong!
Can Hae-ryung be in the hall?
Maybe it's because I'm getting old, but I can't see very well.
You said we needed a professional manager as well.
Since Hae-ryung is smart, she can study hard and lead Gahwamansasung to-
What are you doing here again?
Get out this instant.
I'm Yoo Hyun-ki, the new general manager of Gahwamansasung.
Let's work well together.
How dare you play a joke here?
It's not a joke.
Compared to the scale of our restaurant,
it's been operated in an old-fashioned way, and
the new manager is here to change all that.
Assist him in any way you can and follow his orders.
Dismissed.
I look forward to working with you.
Move it.
Father, why are you suddenly doing this?
Hyun-ki and I are over!
Did I tell you to live with him again?
Then I'll quit.
I can't work in the same place as him.
I'm sorry.
Even if this is my store,
you can't come and go as you please.
Father!
I've already made up my mind.
Just do your own task.
Did you forget what he did to our family and me?
No, I haven't.
But what can I do when he got fired because of me?
What are you talking about?
Are you out of your mind?
Do you really want to make me into an awful woman who ruined your life?
Stop being ridiculous and go back to your company.
I won't go back to you no matter what.
I know.
I just got fired from my company,
so I was thinking of retiring early and doing some business,
but I have no experience.
I heard this place was looking for a manager, so I came to get experience.
I can't cook, but I'm pretty good at managing.
Stop being ridiculous.
What kind of a crazy fool gets experience from his ex-in-laws?
Please stop and leave.
Do you think I'd leave so easily if you used your powers as the owner?
The moment you fire me without a reason, I'll tell the truth to a
labor union, social media, and wherever else needed.
Those are the words you said to me at school.
So...
just do what you have to do.
Once I'm done here, I'll leave on my own.
And then I'll never...
appear in front of you again.
Let's work.
Fine.
I don't know why you're doing this, but do whatever you want.
Instead...
don't forget that we're over
and don't act like you know me.
Are you okay?
I knew about it anyways.
That's why you organized the kitchen for no reason and went to the market at dawn?
I know.
It's about time I got used to it,
but every time I find out the truth, it hurts.
It's all right.
This might save me.
I told you to stop!
What are you going to do if Ms. Han comes back?
What are you guys doing here?
You're here! We were cleaning.
We cleaned up the hall until it was sparkly clean!
And I peeled all the onions you'll need for today. Check them.
If there was an onion peeling contest, I would win first place.
Anyways, did you see the video at the broadcast station?
Did you really find the criminals?
You guys look good on camera.
It was too good to see it alone, so I brought it with me.
Mi-soon!
Mi-soon, please save me!
Don't worry. The only one who will be shown on broadcast is
the one who spilled the entire bag of salt into the broth.
Mi-soon, I'm sorry!
I had no intention of doing that from the start!
- Man-ho did it first- - I was only going to put in a little bit! She's so weird!
Fifty thousand dollars?
Yup.
The prize money,
compensation for libel,
and compensation for mental damage.
You don't know if you would have even won, even if the salt incident didn't happen!
Forget it then.
There's a lot of people I can show this video to.
I was going to meet father first, but I stopped myself.
Don't speak like that! If it wasn't for the salt, she would have definitely won.
She would have sold more lunchboxes and many shows would have cast her for their show.
Man-ho!
But Mi-soon, you know the only thing I have is a minus account.
Where can I suddenly get such a big amount of money?
You won't be able to.
Of course not.
Please spare us this once.
Fine.
Instead help me get Jin-hwa and Sun-hwa.
And push back your wedding until then.
Come on, Mi-soon. That's not right.
What does this have to do with the girls and the wedding?
Aren't you going too far just because you have our weakness?
Mi-soon, do you still have feelings for Man-ho?
Feelings?
I must have told you before that I have a weaker stomach now.
Jin-hwa and Sun-hwa have no intention of accepting you as their mom.
And I won't let that happen either.
But if you get married, you'll be able to come into the main bedroom.
I don't want my girls to see that.
Forget it.
There's no deal.
Yeah. I should've known this was your true nature.
You grab innocent people in the palm of your
hands and manipulate them however you want.
I hated that the most when I lived with you. I just remembered that now.
Joo Se-ri, get up. Let's go.
Fine. Do as you please.
The kids will be so happy to see their dad get humiliated on national television.
It doesn't matter.
He's not a respectable father now either.
I can't give you much time.
Tell me when you make your decision.
Let's go.
Come out.
Man-ho, good job!
We did our best.
Push back our wedding? It's not like we're celebrities.
No one will recognize us even if we're on the television.
- So what if father finds out? - No!
Se-ri,
let's push back our marriage.
No? No, right? But won't it be worse for father to find out?
I'm going nuts.
Man-ho!
You scared me.
If you cancel it, we're through!
Se-ri!
Joo Se-ri!
But it'll be the end of me...
Why did you come here again?
I was a coward.
I know that it's too late
for me to make excuses or apologize.
I know I shouldn't become greedy for Hae-ryung either.
In a few months, I'm going to leave Korea.
And I won't ever come back.
I don't want to live in regret.
No.
I can't.
Please give me one last chance
to make it up and live as a different person.
Just one more chance.
Hyun-ki,
why did you...
do something you'll regret?
Why?
I'm not...
giving you a chance...
because I forgive you...
or because I accept you again.
I'll give you time until you make up for that regret.
Thank you.
Thank you, father.
There are a total of 560 reservations today. This is room three, and this is room six.
There are 560 people, but we can use this room.
Oh, you came.
You must have really gotten fired.
Do you have something against us? Why do you keep appearing and causing a ruckus?
I'm sorry if you felt that way, uncle and aunt.
Still, please be kind to me.
I'll visit your cafe often to drink coffee.
Who are you? You're not Hyun-ki, are you? You're just someone wearing a mask, right?
Why do you approach me in a different way?
I am Hyun-ki.
Hyun-ki prepared those flowers as well. He said orange stirs appetites.
As expected, educated people are different.
Our nephew-in-law prepared a lot.
Let's get our facts straight. He's not our nephew-in-law
anymore. Hae-ryung and he got divorced a while ago.
That's right. Old habits die hard. Sorry, nephew-in-law.
Gosh, nothing works out for me.
What's going on, uncle?
I'm Yoo Hyun-ki who has been hired as the new general manager of Gahwamansasung.
What? Manager?
I'm the boss around here, so who hired you?
Mr. Bong Sam-bong.
What is he saying right now?
Gosh, what's wrong with my day?
Look here. I'm not in the mood to joke today.
Hurry up and go.
Then please reconsider once you feel better again, brother-in-law.
I'm going to check the room settings before the customers come.
Please excuse me.
He just called me brother-in-law, right? He never called me that before.
No! I'm against this!
Is father sick or something?
I know!
I'm sure he has a plan, but still...
Listen to me carefully.
Who should never find out about this?
Sook-nyeo!
If she finds out, we're all dead!
Shut. Your. Mouths.
Zip it.
- What do we do? - Talk to her.
What is it this time?
Are you still curious about something?
You won't be able to play at the sports festival this year, will you?
That's too bad. Last year, we got second place thanks
to her and got plenty of money for company dinners.
You won't be able to participate this year, will you?
Instead, I'll cheer you on!
But...
It's way too hot! Let's go get some cold beer after work!
- Yes! - Good idea!
I'd love to!
My treat!
Where should we go?
No way! Why would you bother coming when you can't even drink?
Bars won't be good for you. Just go home and rest.
Can you leave me out like this?
I completed all my work, haven't I?
How can you be like this?
- No, Ms. Bong! - We were just worried about you!
Hold on.
Ms. Bong, shouldn't you consider our opinions as well?
Your partner is the owner's son and our superior.
Do you think we'll be able to treat you comfortably like before?
I got it.
I made all of you uncomfortable.
After I meet up with the source, I'll go home.
Bravo!
Fantastic teamwork!
Mr. Lee, we did what you told us to do, but Ms. Bong seems really upset.
I know!
Come on! Help me out! This is the only way!
She'll lean on me if she has no one else around her.
She'll be like, "I can only rely on you, Kang-min."
What if she cries?
- What do we do? - Shouldn't we go after her?
I know!
- Hold on. - I don't know anymore.
See! She's calling me!
Is that Ms. Bong?
What is it, Hae-won? Is something wrong?
I tried to hold it in, but I've had enough!
This is all your fault!
You lived so recklessly that everyone is
avoiding me just because I'm connected to you!
Please live properly and don't act like you know me at work!
What did she say? Is she crying?
I'm not sure. I think so...
What is it?
Ms. Kim told me to bring you.
This is the coffee that's right for my honey who likes to play hard to get. Try it!
How can every coffee you make be so delicious?
Forget it. You glared at me just a while ago because I called Hyun-ki "nephew-in-law."
And now you're flattering me.
Give me a cup of that coffee, too.
Oh, hello!
She's here again.
Give me one glass of what Min-jung is drinking.
Forget it. You don't have to pay. But a dollar, Sook-nyeo? Really? Come on.
Take it back.
But who called Hyun-ki?
It's not that. We were just talking about how he
appeared last time when we didn't even call him.
Even if he comes back, don't accept him, okay?
- Of course not. - Of course we won't!
I paid for it.
Bye.
Drink it here!
You're going to drink it on your way out?
A shopping basket and a cup of coffee. Is she a New Yorker?
Goodness.
What's with this dollar?
I thought it wasn't true, but you're pregnant?
This has nothing to do with Kang-min.
You must have nothing to be afraid of because Kang-min is pining for you.
No.
I told you that I-
You'll probably want to boast again that you don't need this money.
If you're trying to use money to take charge of this child, I'll decline.
I'm going to raise this child alone without your help.
Do you really think I won't be able to bring that child?
Don't worry.
I have no intention of bringing such a child into my home.
The problem is Kang-min.
If you have the child, he'll never leave your side.
In the end, you and I will become in-laws.
I don't even want to imagine that.
If you mean that, take this money.
If Kang-min finds out you took this money as an exchange for
marriage with him, he'll never look at you twice again.
The cost is $500,000.
Inside that envelope is $200,000.
I'll give you the rest after we do a DNA test on the child.
HS Group is nothing after all.
I thought you would have a bigger scale.
That's a contract, isn't it? Give it to me. I'll sign it.
Make sure to tell your son that the deal went well.
I really do have the child of a great man.
Bong Hae-won, you're rich now.
- Welcome. - Welcome.
Thank you for coming on such a hot day.
There should be a party for Sejin Investment Stock.
Yes, they should be on the third floor.
Besides you and two other people, everyone else is here.
Really? I was late.
Right this way.
All right.
Did you memorize how many reservations there are,
what room they're in, and what team they are?
You showed me a while ago.
Yes, I did show you, but...
Are you sure this is your first time doing this job?
Geez, you're amazing.
Still, you know you shouldn't have any unprofessional feelings, right?
The customer who went up just now has shellfish allergy.
I think you need to tell the kitchen beforehand.
Oh, really? I'll go.
Hae-ryung's skills got better.
The food looks much nicer!
It's beautiful.
Huh?
I'm flattered. Thank you.
Thank you for the meal.
- You're welcome. - We'll come often.
- Come again. - Bye.
She's so popular, even if it's her first day at work!
People are going nuts that the plate setting changed!
Oh, dear! What allergy does that customer have?
Oh, it's okay. I'll go.
I have to apprehend the kitchen system, so I'll go myself.
What are you doing out here?
What are you doing here?
I was trying to ditch work, but I got caught.
It's hot.
The sunlight is strong, too.
Sorry.
I can do this much as your co-worker, right?
Forget it. I'll do it.
You're the one who'd conscious of me.
If you do this, you'll be the only one who's uncomfortable.
The lunch orders are over. You should take a break.
You're not the one who killed Seo-jin.
It's me.
At least you tried to save him.
Even after I saw him,
I just left.
I saw Seo-jin.
He was even waving at me.
But I just left.
Do I even have the right to live?
[Chief Kim Sung-hoon]
These are the exam results.
There was a similar situation when you were at John Hopkins, right?
You know that's not the point, Dr. Kim. We have to actually open it to figure it out.
- If we let him be, I can't even guarantee he'll live for six months. - The truth is...
the location is complicated.
If only you hadn't hurt your hand...
My hand is already hurt.
Yoo Hyun-ki must get surgery right away.
Don't just say irresponsible words like that. Find a way to save him and persuade him.
I can go now, right?
You're so rough. I heard you ordered a PR kit.
Give it to him for when his symptoms worsen.
You should give it to him.
I can't get in touch with him.
I know you're on uncomfortable terms with him,
but he's someone you can't ignore.
I know.
At times like this, I wish I wasn't a doctor.
When you meet him, try to persuade him.
Seeing that he quit his job, it seems he might be willing to get the surgery.
What do you mean he quit his job?
Mr. Yoo resigned yesterday.
He sent me a message early in the morning.
He doesn't want the chairman to find out.
The person you are trying to reach is unavailable...
[Hae-ryung]
Hey, it's me. How's it going?
I have something to tell you.
I didn't know he would suddenly become a manager here.
I don't know what on earth he told my father.
[Director Yoo Hyun-ki]
The person you are trying to reach...
As the boss of Gahwamansasung, I can't overlook this matter.
Why? Why? Why?
What do you know about Gahwamansasung?
Moreover, me, the son of the owner, was just peeling onions until last month.
But as soon as you come in, you get to be all dressed up and work as the manager?
Okay.
Tell me something you know about Gahwamansasung.
I'm still trying to learn, so I don't know much.
There are a total of 3 floors, 450 tables, and 24 rooms.
There are forty-six employees, but in the kitchen, with
Bong Hae-ryung added, there are none employees in there.
First floor has eight workers and second floor has twelve workers.
Wrong! The second floor has ten people!
Mr. Bong, two new workers came three days ago!
They work on the second floor.
Really?
How come I didn't know about it, huh?
How dare you!
Thank you, Ms. Ahn Cho-rong.
You know my name, too?
Mr. Bong is still confused and calls me Lee, Kim, or Park.
The most important thing a manager does is communicate with the workers.
I'm still unaccustomed to this place, but I know your names at least.
Then what's my name?
How can I not know the sous-chef?
Mr. Hyun Jae-ho. Age forty-five. Twenty-five years of experience.
What about me?
Lee Joon-young. Age twenty-nine. Once served
on active duty. Seven years of experience.
- How did he know? - And me?
- What about me? - And me?
[Center Director Seo Ji-gun]
HS Group's Ms. Kim has arrived.
Welcome.
Take a seat.
I don't need tea.
So did it work out with that young lady?
You were right.
Since I gave her an excuse, she signed the contract.
Why would she hate money?
She just needed an excuse.
It's a shame, but my ex-daughter-in-law was like that as well.
Anyways, it worked out, so I was on my way here to thank you...
but...
I heard something unbelievable.
What...?
Your son quit the company yesterday.
That's impossible.
He left for work this morning.
I asked my husband,
and he said Mr. Yoo had humiliated him in order to look good to his ex-father-in-law.
He didn't even apologize. Rather, he threatened my husband and resigned.
That's impossible!
You know what kind of man my son is.
Check with your son yourself.
If everything is true,
then we can no longer have anything to do with each other.
Grandma! We're back from school!
Did my princesses have a good day?
Wow! Grandma, did you make dumplings?
Yes!
Would you like to try some?
Go and wash your hands.
Okay!
I can't give you much time. Tell me when you make your decision.
Don't disappoint me any longer.
No. I can't go down like this.
Man-ho, Cho-rong told me something strange.
Both Hae-ryung and her ex-husband-
Yeah.
I can't understand it either.
He's good. He's really good. He's different from me. Isn't this ridiculous?
I think I know what's going on.
We're the fifth wheels.
Your father used to really like Hae-ryung's ex-husband.
Even though you guys are twins, he favors Hae-ryung more.
Father already chose his successor.
That's too far-fetched, you know?
If Hae-ryung is good at it, she'll do it.
Why are you so generous?
That's why Mi-soon thinks we're easy and how Hae-ryung's
ex-husband can come and steal the spot out of nowhere!
Are you going to peel onions for the rest of your life?
No!
Of course not!
I can't let Yoo Hyun-ki take over Gahwamansasung.
Gosh, why did he suddenly appear and make life so complicated?
Oh my gosh!
Mom...
Who came where?
Spill it!
Mom, that's not it...
Mother, you're shocked, right?
We were shocked, too.
Hae-ryung's ex-husband is now the manager of Gahwamansasung!
Why would you tell her that?
Se-ri, why...?
Hae-ryung, it's delicious!
Are you going to keep making lunch for us?
Yes. No problem.
But aren't you going to eat?
I'll eat later. You guys eat first.
Come and eat. I'll leave.
I'm okay, Mr. Yoo. You can finish eating.
Thank you for the meal.
You should eat, too. I'll leave.
This is crossing the line.
What are you doing here?
You were really here!
I'm sorry.
How dare you come here! You already hurt my daughter enough!
Mom, talk with me. The employees are here, too.
Let go! I don't need things like this, so leave at once!
I told you that I didn't want to see your face again!
Do you still have business left with us?
Do you still want to hurt my daughter?
Get out! Get out at once!
- Mom! - Get out of here!
Mom, let go of him!
Let go of that hand!
How dare you touch him!
Father, I was really going to keep this a secret from mom, but Se-ri-
You did nothing right either, so stop yapping!
Mom, that's enough. It was my fault. I'm sorry.
Mother, please leave.
I told you to stay away from him, and yet, you ruin my son's life?
How dare you!
Who are blaming?
Mom! What are you doing?
Hyun-ki, what are you doing just standing there? Stop them!
- Mom! - Move!
Mom! Hyun-ki!
Hyun-ki! Hyun-ki!
Let go!
Mom!
That's enough!
Sook-nyeo!
For the first time, I feel sorry for Hyun-ki.
Leave.
Get out of my store this instant!
Leave, ma'am.
Get in the car.
Move.
Listen to me, please!
You'll be okay soon.
Forget it.
I don't want your help.
Quit immediately.
Are you telling me as a doctor...
or...
as Hae-ryung's boyfriend?
Both.
Doctors don't care for every patient.
You're overdoing it.
And if you're telling me as the latter,
I'm...
going to be greedy...
before I die.
Bastard.
A bastard is better than...
dying as a regretful person...
like you.
What happens after that?
You want the people left behind to be regretful for the rest of their lives?
Is my death already guaranteed?
What kind of doctor doesn't give his patient any hope to live?
You're the one who's willing to die.
I don't want to be trapped in a hospital to live a few months longer.
I just want to be next to the people I love and die.
And then?
When you suddenly disappear after sticking around them for so long,
Hae-ryung and her family will feel empty, guilty, and longing.
How will you take responsibility for that?
At least it'll be better than hating me.
Just stay by her side, too.
I'm just going to watch her, too.
I'll watch her laugh,
get angry,
and nag.
You already know...
that's the biggest greed of all.
What?
Why are you in my house?
Because your son keeps following my woman around,
I came to warn him.
What?
This is all your son's fault. Bong Hae-ryung and her family did nothing wrong.
So...
please don't do anything.
You arrogant jerk.
How dare you blabber your mouth off in here?
Thanks to you, I became a doctor who can't do surgery.
Don't I deserve to blabber this much?
She's ruining my son!
That's not her fault.
It's because of your greedy self and your foolish son.
Good-bye.
Stop right there!
That-!
He has a point.
He's right.
It's all my fault.
Bastard!
How can you do this, you bastard?
How can you run away while I was being humiliated?
Get up! Get up at once!
Get up so that we can go apologize to the chairman!
I'm not going.
Yoo Hyun-ki!
This is my first time lying down on this sofa.
It feels great.
Mother,
I'm not going to work there anymore.
Going to the restaurant and interacting with customers is a lot more fun.
I think I was born with such skills.
Although I don't know if they'll take me back
now because of the tantrum you threw today...
Are you sick?
This isn't medicine.
These are ingredients that will go into the new seafood noodle soup.
This will be the second signature dish of Mansasung after the lunchboxes.
So all this time, you were inventing a new dish by yourself?
Wow. I feel so betrayed.
Sorry.
Medicinal herbs have a strong aroma, so I wasn't sure if I would succeed or not.
Oh, so since you're finally revealing this, does it mean you've succeeded?
About seventy percent?
The beginning of Fire Black Bean Noodles was at Gahwamansasung.
This seafood noodle soup will be the first and foremost dish of Mansasung.
As expected.
Mi-soon.
Mom!
What happened to you?
Mi-soon...
I...
wasn't going to come...
but I have nowhere else to go.
I'm glad you came.
I'm glad you came, mom.
Mom...
you look so tired today.
I'm tired.
So are you, Hae-ryung, and Hae-won.
It's hard being a mother and protesting when I have no power to protect my children.
Hae-ryung, what are you doing here?
Just.
Where are you coming from?
I just went to see that neighborhood friend I mentioned last time.
I see.
I thought you didn't eat dinner yet.
Did you come here to give this to me?
I'm going to go now. Bye.
Hae-ryung.
I came because I missed you.
Since I saw your face, I'm fine.
Wait. I'll take you home.
No.
Today I want to ride the bus and look at the scenery.
I'm telling the truth.
Young-woo must be waiting for you. Play with him instead of meeting your friend.
Come and eat. I'll leave.
I'm sorry.
Mom! Hyun-ki!
Where are you coming from?
I just went to see that neighborhood friend I mentioned last time.
[Pharmacy]
These are painkillers for severe cancer patients.
You can't get this medicine without a prescription.
Hae-ryung.
I'm sorry about earlier.
The thing is... um...
You left something.
I came to return it to you.
These are just headache pills.
You could have just given these to me tomorrow.
You came for nothing.
Are you...
dying?
If you're going to die, you should die alone! Why did you come to my house?
I'm going to die soon, so can't I be with my loved ones?
Don't misunderstand. I'm not following you around because of the baby.
Let's start dating from today.
Please let go of my daughter.
I won't let anyone harm you again.
I'm going to push back my marriage!
She's ruining you!
Shut your mouth!
She's going to marry me. Don't look at her like that.
