(Episode 42)
Are you guys here to meet Director Kang?
- Yes. - I'm sorry.
But he left on a business trip.
It'll take him a few days to come back.
He went on a business trip again?
We have something to say to him.
What is it? I'll relay your message to him.
The director and I work in the same team.
It's okay. You guys can tell me.
Our mom is Oh Pil Jeong.
We promise we won't be a burden to him,
so tell him he should meet my mom.
You came a long way. I bet it was hot outside.
Do you also know Mr. Kim Min Cheol?
What?
Yes, of course I know him.
He told my mom that he'll introduce her to the director.
He lives with us.
I see.
You see,
I know the director better than he does.
Really?
Mr. Kim doesn't know this,
but Director Kang is actually a celibate.
"Celibate"?
What's that, Min Ho?
Someone who doesn't want to get married.
He's not just refusing to meet your mom.
He refuses to meet all women.
I'm sure of this.
Really?
Did you tell the kids? What did they say?
They were disappointed that you're not interested in marriage.
Don't you want to know why they came?
They probably came to convince me to meet their mom.
They thought you refused to meet their mom...
because of them.
So they wanted to tell you that they won't be a burden...
and that you should meet her and see how she's like.
You should get them a gift to make them feel better.
And show some sincerity to the rest of the family.
You need to stay there until you get the settlement.
So you have no other choice.
It's 5.8m.
You guys need to do better with the long jump.
But we only have a month left until the competition.
Why don't we practice on Saturdays?
On Saturdays?
I'm free on Saturdays. What about you guys?
- Sure. - Sure.
Really?
- Seriously? - Yes.
Whoever comes late will have to run five laps.
I can't believe you let Yu Kyung join the team again...
just because she wanted to come back.
I was really relieved and glad that she wanted to come back.
She's practicing really hard.
It looks like you especially...
care for Yu Kyung among the other kids in the team.
That's because she came from abroad.
So I'm worried she might have a hard time adjusting.
She's practicing hard, and she's adjusting very well.
She gets along great with her teammates.
We're going to practice on Saturdays as well.
So we're going to need water and snacks.
We'd like some more financial support.
We don't have a budget for that.
We can bear with the uniforms and the worn-out mats.
But I want to make sure...
they get enough nutrition after they work out.
If you're so worried, use your own money.
We can't give you any additional support.
I came because I got worried after Soon Jeong told me everything.
How could he make a fool of you like that?
At first, I was really angry.
But after some time, I was angry at myself.
I let that guy fool me.
What was I thinking?
That's because he made you think that way.
I think I also wanted to believe that it might be possible.
I should've known my place.
You're an amazing woman. You're really great.
I'm outside in the schoolyard wearing sportswear,
and I'm covered in dust and sweat.
I'm not suitable for a chairman's son.
I've come to my senses.
I made a promise to my kids.
I should find a guy that's on the same level as me.
I remembered how you told me...
that you started liking me ever since I gave you flowers.
Thank you.
The meaning of sunflowers is,
"Please stay faithful to me."
I'll stay faithful to you.
So I hope you do the same.
Okay.
I got to see you, so I'll be off now.
Good night.
- Go home safely. - Okay.
Did he come to give you flowers?
But you don't like flowers.
I like it when someone gives them to me as a gift.
Be honest with me.
You changed your mind...
because he's the chairman's son, right?
What's wrong with that?
I knew it.
You don't know women. That's why you're still single.
When a guy has a nice background,
a woman can easily fall in love.
Do you think that love is fake?
No.
It might not be the ideal order, but that doesn't mean it's not love.
I know she's my sister, but she really is something.
- I'm home. - Hey, you're home. Did you eat?
- Yes, I did. - I see.
Here.
I bought some chicken so you could eat samgyetang.
Samgyetang is a great menu to eat during the summer.
You bought that to apologize, didn't you?
But I'm not sure if Pil Jeong will forgive you.
I just thought it'd be nice to get one.
Our sink got clogged. What should we do?
Really?
It's too late to call a plumber.
Let me try.
You're going to unclog the sink?
I did it often when I lived abroad.
I tried doing that, but it didn't work.
Thanks.
If you mess with the wrong thing, you might end up making it worse.
We'll just call a plumber tomorrow. Just leave it.
The corrugated tube seems fine.
The bottom drain might've gotten clogged.
Block the drainage hole with the cover.
I'm telling you. It won't work.
- Did you cover it up? - Yes.
Oh, gosh.
There was food clogged in here.
You can get rid of the cover now.
Just a second.
The water is going down. I can't believe this.
You don't look like it, but you're very good at this.
Do you think so?
I'll be off now. Thank you.
Here.
He walks on eggshells around you.
My goodness.
Gosh, it stinks.
I can't believe I did that.
Are you serious? Is this really for me?
Yes, I got it as a gift, but I already have a cell phone.
I know you always wanted one.
Of course.
But my mom will scold me if she finds out.
- I'll talk to her. - Thank you.
I'm so jealous.
Do you need anything?
If you tell me, I'll get it for you.
I'll think about it.
Okay.
I heard you came to my workplace today.
Yes.
Didn't you know that the director isn't interested in getting married?
Is that why you lied and said you'll introduce him to our mom?
Don't tell our mom that we went there today.
Okay.
What are you doing?
It's nothing. What do you need?
We're going to meet Ms. Lee's parents.
What kind of wedding should we suggest they have?
Let's suggest a simple wedding.
How exactly?
I want them to have a small wedding with just our close family.
Let's not call the employees.
Is this going to be a secret wedding or something?
There are tons of people who wish to come to his wedding.
Do you think they said that because they really want to come?
If you're a businessman,
a wedding is a way to maintain your connections.
And why are you so stingy about giving Suk Hwan a big wedding?
He's my one and only child, so I'm going to give him everything.
"One and only child"?
Why did you even ask if you're going to do things your way?
You're right.
I was a fool to have asked you.
You can save the small and simple wedding for Suk Joon.
Unbelievable.
My gosh.
I got a cell phone.
(I got a cell phone.)
Congratulations.
Save my number.
Why?
Because I want to keep in touch with you.
Okay, but don't be annoying.
Min Ho.
Yes?
It's late. You should sleep.
Okay.
It'd be possible if she was also a golf player.
But I don't think that's a good idea.
People already know that I used to be a caddie now.
And she knows about golf as much as I do.
I want her to teach with me.
She wants to carry out...
her one point lesson with Oh Pil Jeong?
Yes.
Who is Oh Pil Jeong?
She used to work with Choi Woo Mi back when she used to be a caddie.
We got the deal thanks to her.
Then was she the person who convinced Choi Woo Mi?
Yes.
If she used to be a caddie, she must know well about golf.
We can't let her do that.
She's not a golf player, and she's not our employee either.
She has no reason to attend our event.
She could come if Choi Woo Mi invites her.
How lightly do you take our one point lesson?
Even if she used to be a caddie,
Choi Woo Mi won the LPGA tournament, but she's just an ordinary person!
Choi Woo Mi is pretty stern about this.
So let's think about what to do.
It's not right for an outsider to attend our private event.
I know you're not on great terms with Ms. Oh.
But leave your personal feelings out of work.
That's what I should be saying.
What?
And I'm against this...
because I'm being objective for the sake of the company.
Then let me ask you a favor.
I'm living with her because I have to do something for the company.
So I hope you don't tell her about me later on.
Okay.
Did you say the owner of that house in Seogye-dong...
helped us sign a deal with Choi Woo Mi?
- Yes. - You guys must be close...
seeing that she met Choi Woo Mi...
just because you asked her to.
But that doesn't mean she can join our one point lesson.
I agree.
Our clients are already pretty good.
They won't want to learn from a former caddie.
She'll mostly be helping Choi Woo Mi.
Even so, she still can't come.
We don't want to disrespect our VIP clients.
She could help them correct their posture.
So are you saying you're okay with letting her...
teach alongside Choi Woo Mi?
People are very touched by the fact that Choi Woo Mi...
used to work as a caddie.
Plus, it's always been the same every year.
So it won't be a bad idea to give things a change.
Dad.
You should go ahead and ask Ms. Oh Pil Jeong.
Okay.
If the chairman agreed to it,
that means it's up to Ms. Oh.
Has she forgiven you?
I'm not sure.
I even unclogged her sink yesterday,
but she's still cold to me.
Then I bet she'll reject the offer.
Why isn't anything working out?
Why don't you ask Choi Woo Mi?
If Choi Woo Mi asks her,
Oh Pil Jeong might accept the offer.
What if she finds out about me?
Then what should we do?
I should try my best not to run into her.
Hey, I have a favor...
What is it?
Never mind.
I'm too scared to even talk to her.
- Are you all ready? - Yes.
There are tons of other nice restaurants.
Why are we going to a traditional Korean restaurant?
Ms. Lee chose the place, didn't she?
I picked that place because it's nice and quiet.
Your mom has a problem with everything.
Once we get there,
make sure you talk softly,
and just stay calm even if something upsets you.
Why would I do that?
Why would I stay still even if something upsets me?
Then are you going to fight with our future in-laws?
That depends on them.
I already met Ms. Lee's mother, and she's very cunning.
I'm getting a headache already.
We'll be late. Let's go.
Okay.
Even if the vice-chairperson upsets you, don't react to it.
Look at you. Are you already taking your mother-in-law's side?
What are you talking about?
She has a strong personality.
But you do, too.
Yes, she does.
I'll try to stop her if she crosses the line.
Thank you, Uncle.
They're my parents.
She's Eun Ju's mother, and he's her uncle.
It's nice to meet you. My name is Kang Tae Su.
Hello. We've already met before.
Yes. Have you been well?
Hello, I'm Choi Dong Seok.
You look very manly.
Thank you.
It's nice to meet you. Let's all sit down.
- Okay. - Okay.
You are very handsome.
I bet you were very popular when you were young.
Eun Ja.
Is she trying to make me angry?
I'm glad that we're able to have a daughter-in-law...
who's both smart and beautiful.
Thank you.
My daughter really does stand out wherever she goes.
Many women from prestigious families...
wanted to meet Suk Hwan.
But he's very fussy, so he never even gave them a glance.
He's head over heels for my daughter,
so I'm sure he wasn't even interested.
Mom.
You're right.
I liked Eun Ju ever since I first met her seven years ago.
I heard you're a principal who teaches math.
She's the principal of Daehan Middle School,
the school that our foundation recently took over.
Oh, really?
What a connection.
Yes, I know. They even almost met on a blind date seven years ago.
I guess they're really meant to be.
Of course.
Where will the kids be living?
We need to see their house in order to buy the right furniture.
They'll be moving in with us,
so you don't need to worry.
You're going to live with the kids?
Didn't you know?
Didn't you tell her?
You never mentioned that.
This is the first time...
She needs to learn about our family tradition.
So they can live with us for a few years...
and move out afterward.
My daughter always studied and worked hard.
So she doesn't know anything about housekeeping.
I should keep her close...
and teach her how to do stuff.
Exactly.
You should've done that earlier.
What?
We're not going to make her do all the housework.
The housekeepers can do that for us.
Your daughter...
just needs to take good care of my son.
We only plan to live with them for a year.
And after that, they can move out if they want.
I see.
I promise I'll move out in a year.
I'd love to live with you two.
Thank you for saying that.
I heard you're a doctor.
You have such an honorable job.
Thank you.
Eun Ju's father passed away when she was young,
so she grew up lonely.
She may lack a lot of things,
but I hope you treat her well and embrace her like a daughter.
Of course.
I feel like I'm getting myself a daughter...
because I only have two sons.
Thank you for thinking that way.
While you're off on your honeymoon,
we're going to remodel Suk Hwan's room.
So you just need to get a new bed and dressing table.
Okay, I'll have them ready.
"I'd love to live with you two"?
Is that the kind of marriage you've always dreamed of?
Why would I want to live with them? It'll obviously be uncomfortable.
Then why did you say that?
The chairman still wants Suk Joon to be his successor.
I need to live with them and win the chairman's favor...
so I can help Suk Hwan become the successor.
You just wait.
I'll make Suk Hwan become the successor in one year...
and move out of there with a smile on my face.
Then you can move in with us.
- Do you mean that? - Yes.
Look.
Suk Hwan gave me this.
He told me everything he owns is mine.
Really?
She probably thinks she has the upper hand since she has a son,
but he's just a hopeless fool.
The hopeless fool of this family is going upstairs, you guys.
That little punk.
It's crazy how you guys are so alike.
What?
Just ignore him. He's always like that.
Where did Uncle go?
He went to see Yu Kyung practice.
He's extremely supportive of her.
I'm so glad Yu Kyung decided to join the track and field team again.
She works out so hard, and I'm so grateful for that.
Yu Kyung came up with the idea to practice today.
Really?
But I have to say, the principal...
seems to care a lot about Yu Kyung.
To be honest, she's my older sister.
She's Yu Kyung's aunt.
Oh, I see.
Yu Kyung didn't want people knowing that they're related.
So I think that's why my sister acted like she didn't know her.
Okay, then I'll pretend like I didn't hear anything.
Thank you.
Yu Kyung told me that her mother...
got remarried in the States.
Yes, that's why she came back to Korea to live with me.
But one day, my sister set me up on a blind date...
and lied to the other person that Yu Kyung doesn't live with me.
But she overheard that and ran away from home.
She keeps getting the wrong idea even though that was never my plan.
It's very hard to raise her on my own.
- We're all done. - Thank you.
What's this?
It's an air conditioner.
Did you get this for us?
I felt bad about using the AC upstairs all by myself.
You didn't need to do this.
You shouldn't have lied,
but it's not like you committed a crime or something.
I got it for you, Ms. Kim.
You always cook for me, so if you faint due to the heat,
I won't be able to eat.
Thank you for being so considerate.
I'm sure it was expensive.
I bought a used air conditioner, so it wasn't that expensive.
It looks new.
Thanks to you, we're going to have a really cool summer.
- It's an air conditioner. - Yes, you're right.
Mr. Kim bought it for us.
He got it so you guys can have a cool summer.
Thank you.
Aunt, we're going to Mom's school.
We're going to see her track and field team practice.
Should I go with you? Let's go with some snacks.
That sounds great.
You're the best, Mr. Kim.
We still need to fix their wedding date.
Their furniture and appliances?
She'll be living with her in-laws,
so there's not much to buy.
Then you should get a new bed for the in-laws.
Our in-laws didn't want one at first.
But they really loved it after they received it.
It's a great way for your daughter to win brownie points.
"A bed"?
Did you check the delivery sheet for this afternoon?
I need to go to the bathroom.
What was that?
Welcome.
My friend recommended this place. Do you sell beds here?
Yes, of course. Come this way.
Who is it for?
My daughter is getting married.
So I'm going to get one for her mother and father-in-law.
I see.
Then I know just the right product for you.
It's this one.
You should give it a try.
Doesn't it feel nice?
Yes, it feels nice.
This bed looks like the best one.
Yes, it's the most popular one.
Are you showing me this because it's the most expensive one?
What?
You told me who it's for, so I thought this would be best.
We don't just recommend expensive products for no reason...
because it could be unpleasant to our customers.
How am I supposed to know that?
Then should I show you the cheapest one?
It's for our in-laws, so I can't get them the cheapest one.
What does she want?
What did you just say?
Why do you keep talking to me with disrespect?
I know you just badmouthed me.
She's causing a scene again.
What's the matter, ma'am?
This employee just...
- Ms. Choi. - Principal Choi.
Here's the contract.
I'll make sure it gets delivered on the right date.
I'm buying this because I trust you.
Of course. The product that she recommended to you...
is the best gift for parents.
But...
I think you need to educate your staff.
- Bye then. - Goodbye.
She's your sister's school principal.
She's always like that, so don't let it get to you.
My gosh.
Why were you in the bathroom for so long?
I had to deal with that nasty customer.
- Eat up. - Thank you.
Mom!
What are you guys doing here?
Min Ji wanted to come.
You asked me to come with you.
I'm glad you're here.
Hello, I'm Choi Yu Kyung's father.
- Hello. - You look very mature.
And you're very adorable.
- Is he your dad? - No.
He's our lodger.
I see.
Ms. Oh's husband passed away.
What?
Why are you here?
I was worried to let them go alone.
You followed us here.
Is that what happened?
(Mom Has an Affair)
Let me drive you to your house. Get in my car.
We live together, so just get in my car.
I bet there are no guys at your house.
Remember when you asked me if I need anything last time?
- Have you thought of it? - Yes, I need you.
Shouldn't Ms. Oh be here now?
You're going to hide?
You'll soon find out that you don't belong here.
Why don't we ask this question to Ms. Oh?
