(Episode 19)
My legs hurt.
Why are you so enthusiastic?
You don't have to do this.
This is fun.
Do you think this is fun?
I don't like the work at the pawnshop.
It's boring and tedious.
I was really excited when I was preparing the makeup show.
If I could do that again, I can do this 100 times more.
That's unexpected.
- What do you mean? - I thought you liked having fun.
I like having fun.
That doesn't mean I don't have to work.
Aren't you well-off enough to live without work?
Do you think so?
You're Ms. Kim Haeng Ja's family.
It must be hard to live in a house on the top over there, right?
I guess so.
It sounds like you've never been there before.
I guess you're pretty well-off.
I lived in a neighborhood like this until high school.
You did?
With my dad, Myung Jo,
and my mom.
Dad carried my sick mom on his back...
and I held Myung Jo's hand...
while we went up and down the endless stairs every day.
One winter day,
I slipped and fell on the snowy road.
Right then, my mom, who was too weak to even lift a spoon,
held my hand tightly and...
She held my hand tightly and...
Sometimes it crosses my mind...
that if my mom hadn't suffered while living in an area like this,
she might have...
lived a little longer.
Maybe I shouldn't have asked you to come with me.
I didn't come here because of you.
I came here for my own sake.
So you have nothing to be sorry about or thank for.
I'm not exactly such a nice person.
I know that.
What did you say?
You and I are the same at least in some certain ways.
Let's go.
"You're nice."
You never tell a white lie like that.
I'm the same as the pickiest man?
Gosh. What's wrong with me?
My goodness. I guess I have aged after all...
since I can't even drive a nail into the wall.
Why does it suddenly hurt?
Haeng Ja.
What's the matter, Haeng Ja?
I think I strained my back.
Gosh, I can't breathe.
Haeng Ja, let's go to your room first.
Okay. Gosh.
Seriously.
Darn.
- Try to take a deep breath. - What?
A deep breath?
Why were you hanging the photo?
I said I would do it when I come back from school.
You shouldn't use your hands for anything other than studying.
I... I'll find someone else to do it for me,
so don't use the hammer. You might get hurt.
Hang on. I should at least apply a pain relief patch on your back.
No. That's okay. That's not important.
Well, earlier today...
You know that man, who helped you carry the photo, right?
Who? Oh, the lawyer?
Yes.
How do you think of that lawyer?
What do you mean? Do I have to care about him?
Why? Did he not seem okay?
How could I know a person after meeting him only once?
Goodness. Why are you being so picky? It's not like you.
How do you think of him?
Well, despite the difficult situation he grew up in,
he accomplished something, so...
That means he's tenacious.
You don't like him.
I prefer a gentle person.
Gosh. That's not good.
A man must be determined...
so he can give his family a comfortable life...
and get through hard times.
Look at you. Gosh.
It's not like Eun Jo is getting married now.
Why are you being so downhearted?
I don't know why, but I just don't like the idea.
I want to live with you and Eun Jo forever just as we do now.
As if. When you find a nice girl for you,
you would leave us without any hesitation.
No way. I don't have a girlfriend.
I don't know.
My gosh. I was just talking about a hypothetical situation,
but you blushed like a blooming flower.
Right. You're in the prime of your life.
Ms. Jang.
Jung Sook.
I didn't know you were there.
What's this?
It looks like you got a prize from the new beauty parlor.
My goodness. Did you win a prize?
Sorry?
Oh, this...
Why don't you say something?
How did you get a prize without even entering the giveaway?
I'd like to try that as well.
It was In Woo.
In Woo got her hair done there and entered the giveaway.
She said she needed a newly released hair dryer.
I see. Was it In Woo?
Hello.
Hi, In Woo.
Your mother must be proud of you.
I hear that you won this prize at the new beauty parlor.
- Pardon me? - Exactly.
No. I lost the draw.
They texted me that I didn't win any prize.
Just go upstairs, and make dinner.
- Go on. - Okay.
Did you buy a new rice cooker? Didn't you...
Stop talking, and go upstairs, you tactless brat.
I see.
You might say it was In Jung now.
That's right. I'm forgetful lately. It was In Jung.
- Is that so? - Yes.
In Jung! In Jung!
- She hasn't come home yet. - Come down for a second, In Jung.
- Did you call me? - Yes.
She's so obedient in situations like this.
Hey, you got very lucky.
Me? I don't think so.
I heard you got a prize from the new beauty parlor.
A rice cooker.
It's such an expensive...
A rice cooker.
That's right.
That's nothing.
Mom, where is my prize?
The cosmetics refrigerator.
A cosmetics refrigerator?
- You got a really good prize. - Sorry?
All right. It was me. I won the prize.
I went there to see...
how fancy their shop is and how they attracted everyone.
I tried their service because it was the only way to check their skills.
I entered the giveaway because it wouldn't hurt to do so.
Then you could've told me the truth. Why did you lie?
Well, I just...
But what did you do there?
You're the owner of a hair salon. What could've you done...
at someone else's shop?
Fine. See it yourself. Look.
Here. I got a pedicure.
My gosh. That's a brilliant idea.
I didn't think of a pedicure.
Gosh. There's no one to trust in this entire world.
This is unbelievable.
What are you talking about?
In Woo's mom. She's such a sly woman.
Why do you two fight all the time just like kids?
You just don't know. As you age, you only become more stubborn.
I have to make dinner.
Shall we order delivery food?
Shall we? I didn't want to cook.
- Is it on you? - Sure. Order anything you want.
Then... I'll have jjamppong with sweet and sour beef.
And baigan liquor too. Okay?
Okay.
Did something good happen? Why are you being so generous?
Is your business going well?
I'm just a salaried employee. I don't run my own business.
That's not what I meant. I was talking about your love life.
Mom, please.
You can tell me the truth now.
It's Haeng Ja's daughter, right? Eun Jo.
If it's Eun Jo, I wouldn't disapprove of her.
No.
- I will subtly help you... - No. Leave me be.
Never meddle in this. Just watch me.
Why would that upset you so much?
I'm not tactless. Do you think I'll ruin it?
Just don't fight with Ms. Kim.
I've been very nice to her lately anyway. Don't worry.
I think it's near here.
I can't walk anymore.
What are you doing here?
We finally found you.
Why did you come all the way here?
Surely, I didn't come here because I was bored.
Don't speak like that.
We meet again.
Are you two a duo or something?
I don't like how you look at my house.
Right. I live like this in a house like this.
I can have some water, right?
Sorry?
Hey, wait. Hey.
I really think I got fired unfairly.
You can at least hear me out.
I don't think I need to hear you out since it seems too obvious.
Let's not waste our time.
Give us some food to eat.
I have no food.
Please don't be like that. Ramyeon would be okay.
Both of us are starving.
Excuse me. Hey, wait. Hey!
Who is she?
Exactly.
Why did you make only two bowls?
Don't mind me, and eat up three minutes later.
I know that you've been working at Genius for quite a long time.
Then why am I living like this?
Everyone has his own situation.
Now, let's hear whatever excuse you have.
About tardiness and delinquency of duties...
I admit it.
But I had no choice because I had to prepare the makeup show.
That can't be an excuse.
He worked really hard.
If you can't believe him, you can ask Director Goo Jong Hee.
I've been meaning to ask you this. Who are you?
I'm Gil Eun Jo. I'm learning about the work from Suk.
Why are you laughing at me?
Do you want to say that I have a lousy immediate superior?
I realized that we had so much in stock while cleaning the storage.
I'm now planning a way to clear out that stock. I need your help.
What are you doing?
I'll show you that I'm not insincere while working on it.
If you don't see that, you can fire me again.
Are you really asking me to cancel the layoff like that?
Did you get a job at the planning team after you were fired?
That's what I'm talking about.
I came all the way here to see how he'd beg for your mercy.
What?
This is my way of settling things.
I can't help it even if you don't like that.
The ramyeon is getting soggy. Let's eat first.
I'm not hungry.
All right. I bet you aren't.
It must be delicious. Just eat.
(Kim Haeng Ja, 125-14 Shinsu-dong, Mapo-gu)
This is her.
Please check up on her.
Is that it?
What do you mean?
You have her name, address, and phone number. Isn't it enough?
I barely managed to get it from the culture center student list.
What do you want to know about her?
Her family relations, social relations,
financial status, and common stuff like that.
I'm not asking for strange stuff.
In fact, I'm just a citizen with a sound mind.
It's not easy to find out her financial status.
People are very thorough these days.
Isn't that the point...
to call a detective agency?
It would cost more then. Are you okay with that?
So how much?
Why on earth did you come with me?
Did you come to have some ramyeon?
You kept interrupting me.
Hey, I told you that I wouldn't sell those clothes.
Why do you always have things your own way?
It just sold itself at the flea market.
I didn't do anything.
You know it. You were there too.
All right. I'll buy another one.
And I'll sell it again.
I won't go to the flea market again.
It's an important event for our company.
If the chief director doesn't go, who would go there?
Even the CEO wasn't there. Why would I go there?
Did you forget that? You're the CEO's deputy.
If you don't like it, you should change.
What more should I change?
I like myself the way I am.
When would you stop living in Suk Pyo's shadow?
I won't stop until I die.
As long as Suk Pyo lets me.
Do you really want to live like that?
What's wrong with the way I live?
Don't even think about something dangerous.
We can just live like this.
I'm not like you.
So what? Are you going to become the CEO of Genius?
There's no reason I shouldn't do that.
Hey, Goo Jong Hee.
You and I are not in the same position.
It's obvious that I have a stake in the company.
Suk Pyo's mother gave you the stake...
so you can help him with his work.
I worked as a door-to-door cosmetics salesman...
for Suk Pyo's mother when I was 17.
I've taken care of every detail of Genius...
to make the tiny store into a big company.
Isn't it enough to say I deserve it?
All right. Then what about Suk Pyo?
This is just in case Suk Pyo is in trouble.
What is so bad about having a backup plan?
Is that it?
What do you mean?
Doesn't that mean you'll put him in trouble on purpose?
Are you saying I'll put Suk Pyo in trouble for me?
- You know the answer. - Choong Seo.
Don't attempt too much.
It's not that bad to live like we do now.
What do we live like now?
You have no right to say that to me.
What does that mean?
I used to have many dreams.
I wanted to become a ballerina or an art teacher.
But my parents were too old to get me what I wanted.
That's why I started working for Suk Pyo's mother.
What were you doing back then?
You ran away from home with the house deed to become a singer.
I'll take my piece of the action.
That doesn't mean I will do something to Suk Pyo though.
Suk Pyo is my family no matter what they say.
Suk... Suk Pyo.
When did you come?
I just came in. Did the flea market go well?
Was it successful?
Of course. It's an important event for our company.
When will you attend the event as the CEO?
I'll be doing that some time. But not now.
Did he hear anything?
Since when has he been here?
He didn't hear anything. Did you not see his face?
Hong Suk Pyo, don't trust the world.
Don't trust anyone. Trust only yourself.
Yes.
Chairman Hong. Here.
Are you all right?
It's the detailed information about Assistant Manager Oh Dae Young.
As you said, he is clean as a whistle.
His grandmother is his only family. She's in a nursing home now.
He spends most of his money on her medical bills.
I think Assistant Manager Oh is someone you can trust.
Do you think so?
Would it be okay to trust Secretary Lee?
What's wrong?
Well, it's nothing.
Where have you been?
Don't worry. I don't go to clubs anymore.
Where is it? I heard you strained your back.
I applied a pain relief patch. It's okay.
You should use an ice pack instead.
Where is it?
It's right here.
Did Myung Jo only put a pain relief patch on you?
He's been beside himself these days.
He must be stressed out because of the big test.
Did you think hammering a nail would be easy?
And that's a cement wall. You need an electric drill to drive a nail.
I know that much.
Then why did you strain your back while hammering some nails?
You must be so happy to be able to nag me about something.
Who'd come this late in the night?
Oh, that'd be Bo Geum.
Bo Geum is good at hammering nails.
I can do better. Why did you call her?
You should think of your age.
If you trouble me later, I'll turn away from you.
Look at her. Why would she try to sound so mean?
She talks harshly like that, but I know she has a big heart.
Eun Jo.
Whenever I come in here, I realize how small this room is.
Even I'm bigger than this.
It's not just the small rooms.
The heater breaks down and the faucet drips all the time.
Even the toilet clogs up often.
I know. This house is really old.
Haeng Ja will never move out though.
I know. You know what this house means to her.
This place is full of memories of her and your father, right?
By the way, you're becoming prettier day after day.
You don't have to say that.
When you're in love, you become prettier.
Am I in love? With whom?
The lawyer guy. I thought things were going well.
That's not it.
Two people of marriageable age are dating. Why would you deny it?
You have no idea how confused I am these days.
Why? What's wrong? Just tell me.
I feel uncomfortable and nervous around one guy,
but he makes my heart flutter.
The other makes me feel comfortable, but I don't feel anything.
Which one do I like?
You should wait and see until you make up your mind.
Are you telling me to have it both ways?
What's wrong about having it both ways?
You're just trying to find out the right person.
I didn't know you'd say that.
Oddly, when it comes to opportunities, money, or men...
they all come at once.
And it's up to you to choose one of them wisely.
It's only me that thinks it's two-timing.
He's not interested in me at all.
Are you talking about the picky man or the sweet man?
I can obviously tell which one it is though.
- You don't know. - The picky man?
- No. - Is it the sweet man?
My goodness. What's so funny?
I've barely passed the first barrier.
Mr. Gil, look how Eun Jo and Myung Jo grew up to be.
Now, I have to find good matches for them.
Please help me find the right people for them.
(Sook's Hair Salon)
Hi, Choong Seo. What's up?
About the nourishing cream I gave you last time. What do you think?
Oh, that. It's nice. It's very good.
To be more specific...
Is it urgent? If not, I'll call you back after organizing my thoughts.
Okay. Bye.
I should visit Haeng Ja as soon as possible. Seriously.
What's gotten into you? You're cleaning the floor.
Did the sun rise from the west today?
Hello, Ms. Jang.
Just act like you always do. A sudden change is a sign of death.
Don't be so mean. Please think of it as something like a midlife whim.
It looks like your whim didn't change the way you talk.
Welcome... What are you doing here?
I... I will go and do the laundry.
- Excuse me. - Okay.
Why do you keep coming here?
I have no business with you.
What else would I be here for? I'm here for a hair dye.
- Where should I sit? - Wait.
You must pay first.
Gosh. That's so mean.
How can I trust you when you don't even have enough money for a sauna?
If you don't want to pay first, go somewhere else.
All right. I'll pay you.
- Give me. - Okay.
By the way,
I'm planning a very important project.
What do you say? Do you want to work with me?
A project?
If my plan succeeds, not only yourself,
but our daughters will also benefit from it so much.
Then you'll be able to start a new life.
I root for your new life. I cheer for your future.
So it's another project to get rich overnight.
It's different this time.
You won't lose anything in this project.
You're here to ask for money then, aren't you?
Can you come up with some money?
You jerk. Get out. Leave now.
Hey. I'll start a new life on my own.
- I don't need your support. - Gosh. Stop it.
Get lost right now.
You will regret this later. Seriously.
Hang on. What if he goes to see In Woo?
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message after the tone.
At least Jung Sook's life is never boring.
Why isn't he coming?
Are you waiting for someone?
Nobody. I just thought of Lawyer Byun.
I'm wondering if he'll come here to show you something else.
So it was you who likes magic tricks.
That's not true.
However, it was fun, wasn't it?
Isn't it the lawyer that you like?
That's... Gosh, no. That's not it!
I have my own preference, Eun Jo.
Besides, I like someone else.
Who is he?
It's a secret.
Come on. That's cheap.
Are you free for dinner tonight?
Come to the pawnshop after work. I'll be waiting.
You went around to find Mr. Hong Suk yesterday.
Today, you have dinner plans with Lawyer Byun.
Are you two-timing?
- Yes. - Are you serious?
I'll date as many men as I can at the same time.
That's funny. You collected designer products after quitting clubbing.
Are you collecting men this time or something?
That's right.
And I'll leave them if I don't think they're good enough.
Until the best man for me is left.
My gosh. Why would you do that?
Keeping back-up boyfriends is more tiring than you think.
If I get tired, I can always return them.
My gosh. You're unbelievable.
Why are you standing there? I told you to move all these boxes.
Just the two of us?
You said you'll show me your sincerity, right?
I'm giving you a week to prove yourself to me.
So do whatever I tell you to do without complaining.
Okay. I'll do that.
I'll deduct your pay for the cosmetics you just broke.
That hurts.
Haeng Ja, I'm here.
I heard you got hurt. Are you all right?
I heard you strained your back.
Who told you that?
Miss Min did. Who else would have told me?
Acupuncture treatment will heal it at once.
Shall I take you to the clinic?
That's okay. By the way, what's that?
Oh, this?
My watery kimchi is now ripe and tasty.
Look at that. That must be the photo you took that day.
You guys look great in the photo.
Is it because you're all good-looking?
We got a good picture.
However, it feels a bit empty.
I think you need to get more family members.
Shall I set Eun Jo up with someone?
Is there a nice man? Who is he?
Yes. He's tall and handsome...
Handsome men tend to be unfaithful.
It's his personality that matters. Looks aren't important.
Of course he has such a nice personality.
He's kind and has a heart of gold.
A kind but naive man always makes his family suffer.
He's also competent. He has a good job.
He's a lawyer, right?
Did you notice it?
You've been acting so weird. How could I not notice it?
It seems like they are seeing each other,
but they might stop it if we meddle in.
So just leave them alone.
Did you know that they were seeing each other as well?
What do you think of Bu Sik?
My opinion doesn't matter. Eun Jo's heart is what matters.
You're practically her mom although you're not her birth mom.
You raised her for so long.
I didn't raise her. I simply lived with her.
At first, I lived with them to help them.
But now, it feels like they're doing me a favor.
You feel lonely too.
What are you going to do after they get married?
Why don't you start dating someone?
That's disgusting. Why would I date someone?
If a boyfriend is too much for you, think of him as someone to talk to.
Or a male friend. A friend who happens to be a man.
Someone to talk to?
Is this really the same person?
"Kim Haeng Ja, no educational background."
"No record of marriage."
"She's living with the children of the man she lived with before."
"The owner of Dia Pawnshop located in the market."
"Dia Pawnshop"?
I think that's where I sold the handbag In Woo gave to me.
You can't even buy one of my shoes with that money.
As for this dress, maybe one of the sleeves.
This is her. That arrogant brat.
"Gil Eun Jo, the pawnshop employee."
"She lives with Kim Haeng Ja and spends her money."
"She has no legal relationship with Kim Haeng Ja."
This is not right.
She's young. She should work to make money.
Why would she spend someone else's money instead?
"Gil Myung Jo, Gil Eun Jo's younger brother."
"He's in his senior year at a medical school."
This family is a total mess.
I'm sure Kim Haeng Ja is paying for the expensive tuition too.
"It is impossible to estimate her wealth."
Gosh. Did he charge me 100 dollars just for this?
She's rich enough with the building,
and it's certain that she's interested in me.
This is unbelievable.
(Hate to Love You)
I heard you requested a secret investigation on someone.
I just needed to do it. Don't worry about it.
- This is the tuition fee. - You don't have to do this.
Why don't we just keep each other company?
My heart flutters, and my face turns red.
Why did you call me at this hour?
Can we go somewhere quiet and have dinner together?
You're the guy from the center. What are you doing here?
Sorry to bother you so late.
It's about time for Eun Jo to get married.
I can't help looking at guys like him carefully.
I don't need anything else if I'm with someone I like.
When I'm with him, I can see nothing else...
except him.
