(Episode 36)
This is halibut fin.
I know you like this.
Oh, was it your girlfriend who liked it?
How come you didn't come together today?
Is it that good?
Yes.
The art of sushi always fascinates me.
The taste is determined by the skills...
of the person who makes it rather than the price of the fish.
Isn't it so interesting?
My gosh. Thank you.
You make amazing sushi.
I'll be sad if this taste changes.
Okay, I'll remember that.
Could I get some to go?
This is an important opportunity for me.
She and I are the two finalists.
That alone makes my heart flutter.
Then you can work all night just until today.
When you're done, we'll go and see the stars.
Okay? Please.
Okay, we will go.
You promised me.
All right.
But doesn't talking about the stars...
make you crave tteokbokki?
What? What do the stars have to do with tteokbokki?
Come on. Some tteokbokki places use star-shaped rice cakes.
I'm really craving tteokbokki now. Super spicy tteokbokki.
You'll ruin your stomach at that rate.
That's not a problem if you train yourself.
You shouldn't just lie around in bed in the morning.
Come out and hit the punching bag.
You're such a weakling.
Goodness, who would want to marry you?
Gosh, what a bother. She wants spicy food at night?
What a nuisance.
What?
I guess you're heading home now.
Yes. What about you, Dan Soo? Are you going somewhere?
I came out to get some tteokbokki. Super spicy tteokbokki.
Gong Hee loves spicy tteokbokki.
Gosh, I don't understand why she loves spicy food so much.
Well, I should hurry before the snack house closes.
All right. Bye, Dan Soo.
Get home safely.
Mom.
Make me some tteokbokki.
Give me a few minutes. Let me unpack first, okay?
But I want it now.
Okay, all right.
I'll finish unpacking quickly and make it for you.
Hello?
The chairwoman is waiting.
Please come with me.
Gosh, it's okay.
It's all right. I'll be right back.
Geon.
You said you were craving it, but I couldn't even make it for you.
I had to leave you that day.
I'm sorry.
Mom is sorry.
It's okay even if you don't remember me.
Forget all the bad memories, Geon.
Hello.
I am from the Future Strategy TF Team...
Gosh, Maeng Gong Hee.
Oh, I'm already nervous. What do I do? Goodness.
Mr. Seo.
Gong Hee, I'm in your neighborhood now.
Pardon?
Well, remember the place where I dropped you off...
when I gave you a ride that one time?
I'm there now.
Which one is your house, Gong Hee?
I have something to give you.
No. I'll come outside.
She's always saying she's hungry at this hour.
What's so great about this spicy tteokbokki?
What? Min Gi?
I feel like...
I'm about to tear up now.
It's easy to move you to tears.
Is this enough to do that?
Do you like sushi?
I can't have enough of it.
Eat this and cheer up.
You'll have good results.
Thank you.
I'll be sure to do well.
Go on inside. I don't want to take up too much of your time.
Thank you.
Drive safely.
Okay.
Head in first. It's cold.
Yes, this is the right thing to do.
This is.
Oh, my.
Where did you go?
Why do you care?
Hey, look at this.
Hey, this is halibut fin, right?
Gosh, I can't have the fin part. Do you want it?
Is there something even you can't eat?
What's with the sushi?
Someone brought it for me.
Who?
You don't have to know.
I thought you were craving spicy food.
Is sushi spicy?
Wasabi is spicy too.
Hey, come and eat with me. This looks expensive.
I'll pass.
What's up with him?
Gu Dan Soo.
Why are you hiding?
You could just go out and ask...
why he came here.
And why would Min Gi buy Maeng Gong Hee sushi at this hour?
Was that date with Min Gi, perhaps?
No way.
What is it?
What's going on?
(Joy OB-GYN Clinic)
If she has no parents,
you can be her parent.
- The red one? - That's better.
Just one moment.
- Has it been five months? - Yes.
Let me schedule you in.
What?
What are you doing here?
I want to be here with you.
Thank you.
There's no need to thank me.
Your hands are cold.
When my hands were cold,
my mom would hold them like this too.
Even when I whined and said...
that her hands wouldn't warm mine up,
she'd still do it so I'd feel better when I was in pain...
or relax when I was nervous.
Then, interestingly enough,
my heart would feel so warm.
This is...
my first time...
feeling like an elder is cheering me on.
Don't worry.
Everything will be all right.
Okay.
Oh, right. And...
you should speak comfortably with me now.
Shall I, then?
Yes.
Ms. Eom Hong Dan?
- Yes. - Yes.
Let's go inside.
Things will be fine.
(Maeng OB-GYN Clinic)
This woman won't even call me.
I don't even know where she is or what she's up to.
Yes?
(Maeng OB-GYN Clinic, Director Maeng Gong Boo)
What's this?
She left this during her last appointment.
"Eom Hong Dan."
(Pregnancy Journal, Eom Hong Dan)
Why would she leave such a thing?
(Regular checkup notes)
(Ssook Ssook, did you really come to Mommy?)
Ssook Ssook, did you really come to Mommy?
My Ssook Ssook came to me like a miracle.
I gave you the nickname Ssook Ssook so you'd grow up big and strong.
Let's meet after you grow up well in my belly.
Promise.
By the way, you don't have a dad.
Mommy will do everything for you to make up for your dad.
She was making such a fuss on her own.
- Breathe comfortably. - Okay.
Think of this as a test to see if your baby is healthy.
Don't feel too overwhelmed.
- Okay. - All right.
Then, let's get started.
Ssook Ssook.
Mommy met you too late.
I'm sorry.
I looked it up,
and there are so many things to be careful with as an older mom.
What if you get sick because of me?
What if you're born unhealthy?
(Pregnancy Journal)
And what if I lose you, Ssook Ssook?
I'm so scared.
Were you thinking about these things by yourself?
Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
(Maeng OB-GYN Clinic, Director Maeng Gong Boo)
(Now that you've come into my life,)
(I have a family for the first time in my life.)
Now that you've come into my life,
I have a family for the first time in my life.
So, please be strong and hang in there.
Okay?
Mommy is now...
afraid of being alone.
Darn it.
Is she doing okay or what?
What if things go wrong?
Oh, dear lord!
What? Did something happen?
Hong Dan!
What's going on?
Mother.
- Yes? - The baby...
My Ssook Ssook...
What happened?
Tell me.
The baby's heart is beating.
The heart is beating strong.
Last time, the heartbeat was very weak,
so we thought she might have a miscarriage,
but the baby is healthy and breathing well.
Would you like to hear the heartbeat?
Yes.
This is my Ssook Ssook's heartbeat.
I'm so proud of you.
You must have been so worried.
Mother...
Why are you crying?
You heard what the doctor said. Your baby is healthy.
It's here.
(Joy OB-GYN Clinic)
Don't hesitate to call me if anything happens.
If I hadn't had you by my side today,
I would've been so anxious.
I didn't even do anything.
Thank you,
Mother.
Yes.
You did well.
I'll get going, then.
When a baby comes to you,
a whole new world and universe opens up to you.
Thank you.
Thank you for being healthy.
I'll be good to you.
I promise you I will be a good mother.
(Joy OB-GYN Clinic)
Sorry, excuse me.
Excuse me.
Have you had a pregnant woman named Eom Hong Dan come here?
Who are you?
I'm the baby's father.
She just finished getting tested and left.
Why is the timing constantly off?
Nothing about this woman is easy.
I'm sorry.
Hey, are you slacking off again?
Why did you call me here?
You went to see Maeng Gong Hee last night, didn't you?
How did you know?
I happened...
to be in the area and saw you.
I'll ask you directly.
Min Gi,
are you and Gong Hee dating?
I heard you two were friends growing up.
I guess you even know where she lives.
Just answer my question.
Are you and Gong Hee dating?
It's not what you think.
I only stopped by to give her a pep talk.
She has a presentation today.
I wanted to wish her luck.
Of course. I knew it.
But why were you curious about it?
What?
As you know, Gong Hee and I go back a long way.
We grew up together.
You were just being you, Seo Min Gi the humanist.
I knew it.
I almost got the wrong idea.
I should get back to work.
I focused on the everydayness of the design and...
You have your presentation. Shouldn't you get going?
I'm so nervous right now.
Can I really pull this off?
My goodness. Are you asking me for help?
Why? Do you have some pointers for me?
Just focus on what you want to deliver.
What? But I already have this script.
I'm talking about your heart, not your words.
What was the inspiration behind your design?
What motivated you to do the presentation?
- Stuff like that. - Come on.
Do you really think that will work?
Ms. Kang is well-spoken, on top of everything else.
Why would you try to beat an eloquent speaker with words?
Fight her using your own weapon.
My weapon?
My fist?
Your sincerity.
I bet no one can beat you on that front.
Remember what you told me?
The reason you have to work for Jayce Fashion.
If this strategy works,
it'll be stronger than your steel fist.
My sincerity?
I'll give you energy...
so you can win.
Hey! Goodness.
You wouldn't be Gu Dan Soo if you didn't act silly.
Anyway, thanks for your advice.
If you want to thank me, just keep your promise.
What promise?
You've forgotten all about it?
We said we'd go and see the stars when it was over.
What's with this sudden obsession with the stars?
Sincerity.
I tried making some pork cutlets with sirloin.
This is sausage stir-fry.
And this is seasoned dried squid.
I made it pretty sweet.
Goodness. What's with you, showing up with these side dishes?
You never cook at home since you live alone.
You said you lived off our dumplings.
Well, I just...
It seems that Myung Ja is quite busy these days,
and you said you were renting out that room,
so I wanted to help out a little.
My goodness. No matter how busy we are,
we will be sure to make time to feed that boarder upstairs.
Seriously, you worry too much.
What is this?
Let me see.
Oh, my. This is tteokbokki.
I think Dan Soo likes it.
How do you know that he likes this?
Oh, I saw him buying tteokbokki the other day.
I'm telling you. You should change your name to Ms. Oh So Nosy.
By the way, Gyeong Bok,
you said...
Dan Soo had no parents, right?
That's right. His mother ran away when he was very young.
Even Myung Ja never met her.
I see. Then what about his father?
His father? I have no idea.
I wasn't living with my brother and his family back then.
I met Dan Soo for the first time when he was all grown up.
- Then... - Goodness.
If you're done here, leave already.
Myung Ja isn't here, so I have a lot to do.
Then Dan Soo's father...
Like I said, I don't know! Go.
Leave, will you? My goodness.
- What's going on? - Myung Ja, you're here.
I told you to leave. Why are you still here?
All right. I'll come back later.
My goodness.
Oh, boy.
So? You went to the clinic, right?
- The baby is okay, right? - Yes.
Hey, why did you kick Audrey out?
Well, she is hiding from all of us...
that her mom was the owner of Cafe Night Fog.
So, why is she digging up others' secrets?
I'm telling you. She really irks me.
Hey! Do you think I'm joking with you?
What is going on?
I said the other day...
that there was a tornado coming.
Anyway, because of Audrey,
not a day goes by quietly in this neighborhood. Oh, boy.
Oh, dear.
I warned you, didn't I?
Did you not hear what I said?
After being humiliated like that,
how could you flirt with my husband again?
Watch what you say.
If you didn't flirt with them, then what happened?
How come all the men keep going in and out of your shop?
It's not the only alternation shop in the area!
I run a business.
Isn't it my job to help the customers who come to me?
How could I kick out my customers?
It runs in your blood.
Seducing men is the only thing you know how to do.
Did you see it?
Did you actually see me seducing someone?
You are Madam Yang's daughter.
If you're not, just say so! Okay?
Yes, I am Madam Yang's daughter.
Finally, you are admitting it.
But no one here has the right to kick me out.
Are you all that anxious?
Because you think a mere seamstress might steal your husband?
What? This woman still hasn't learned her lesson.
- What are you doing? - Goodness.
Look at you ladies ganging up on her.
Aren't you embarrassed?
Myung Ja, you shouldn't stop us.
I know your husband has been visiting her shop too.
Yes, to get his clothes fixed.
Why else?
Don't falsely accuse her like this.
Audrey would never do such a thing.
She doesn't deserve to be treated like this.
Unbelievable.
Get up. Let's go back to my shop.
Oh, dear. Come on.
Where are you going? We must put an end to this!
Stop!
It's break time.
- Goodness. - But why?
Goodness gracious.
Myung Ja.
I have something to ask you.
About Dan Soo, the young man staying in your house...
Dan Soo? What about him?
What is the story...
behind Dan Soo wandering around without any parents?
I heard that he didn't have a mom...
because she ran away.
But what about his father?
Why isn't his father around?
Why are you curious about that?
You came in from being beaten up just now.
I just think...
I might be able to help if I knew.
Last time, he collapsed on the street,
and he refused to go to the hospital.
I felt so bad for him.
Still,
it's not easy to talk about it lightly.
It's not a happy story.
Some relatives took Dan Soo in...
when he was young.
But I guess they sent him away once he grew up.
Then, does that mean Dan Soo's father...
is no longer here?
What's this? Tell us the truth.
Do you know Dan Soo's father?
Go on and say so if you don't!
You keep going on about Dan Soo's father.
You're being such a nuisance!
It's just strange.
Do you have some kind of...
weird relationship with Dan Soo's father?
Goodness, Gyeong Bok.
Just go inside and make the dumplings.
I mean, she keeps her secrets all to herself,
so why does she keep asking about someone else's secrets?
(My Merry Marriage)
Why is Geon staying here?
Why is he living apart from Hae Joon?
What's this? I grabbed it first.
You'd better let it go.
I'm saying this for your sake, lady.
I'm Kang Ji Na,
the Design Manager of the Future Strategy TF Team.
I'm Maeng Gong Hee.
Someone just said this to me.
"Deliver your sincerity."
