I won't let this slide!
Bo Ra is my daughter!
What?
She's your daughter?
Why didn't you tell me?
I haven't told her either until now.
I made myself look like a fool...
for the misunderstanding.
You should go home first as I need to talk to Bo Ra.
All right.
I'll leave,
so enjoy...
your time with your daughter.
I'm sorry I couldn't tell you earlier.
I apologize for my wife's rudeness just now.
I...
only found out yesterday from Mom that you're my dad too.
I see.
But seeing how you grew up so well,
I'm so proud of you.
I always have wondered...
how you're doing,
whether you miss me,
and why you don't come to see me.
That's...
Actually,
I really missed you too.
But if I see you,
I'd want to see you and miss you.
You'd be in my mind.
I didn't know I would come back to Korea.
It sort of happened.
We sort of happened to meet.
I was surprised to see you as a weather forecaster...
while watching TV after coming back.
I wondered if it was my daughter.
"My daughter."
I was so proud and happy...
to see you on commercials and become famous.
My dad...
So you've been newly appointed to Dad's company.
Yes, that's right.
I came to Korea because of that.
My dad doesn't know about our relationship.
I know. I couldn't tell him as I wasn't sure how to bring it up.
He'll find out sooner or later though.
Mom is living happily with my dad now.
Do you have any children?
No, we don't.
I have a sister.
I see.
I knew one day we'd meet like this.
Since I'm going to live here now,
whatever the past may have been,
let's see each other and keep in touch from time to time.
Okay.
You must be hungry. Let's have something delicious.
Sure.
Excuse me.
What do you like to eat?
Oh, me?
By the way, about the director.
I thought he's laid back as he's from the States,
but he's quite considerate and warm. I think he's a good person.
He's been supportive of the pop-up restaurant I suggested.
And he'd been taking good care of Bo Ra too.
How do you know a person with a glance?
Geez, I've been doing sales for more than 20 years.
I've met so many people during those times.
You only see the good in people.
You were the one who'd always be the good one,
but what's gotten into you today?
Well, you may be disappointed later...
if you easily judge the character of a person.
I'm so full.
Mr. Shin is such a good cook. Don't you agree?
Sit down for a second.
I couldn't say this as my parents were there,
but your teacher told me you don't speak a lot at school.
Why? Do kids bully you by any chance?
Well,
they've teased me for not having a dad,
and now, they tease me for being an orphan...
as they found out that my mom died.
Those pricks.
I actually met kids who were talking about you in the bathroom.
I told them I'm your real sister,
so they won't be able to tease you anymore.
I'll go to all the school events from now on.
Really?
My mom hardly came to school.
What do they like?
Should I get an autograph from BTS? They're popular these days.
Are you serious? You're the best!
Byeo Ri,
thank you for your flowery letter.
I felt so happy that I couldn't help but dance.
Your handwriting is as pretty as you.
You even touch my heart.
But you had your shoulders sagged last time,
so my shoulders would drop too.
My heart felt heavy as if there was a rock placed on it.
I'm glad I have you on a day like this.
Did something happen?
Did you catch Uncle cheating on you?
Don't ask. I barked up the wrong tree.
Why?
Kim Bo Ra is his...
biological daughter.
Oh, my gosh.
His daughter?
When...
I thought he was seeing a younger woman,
I was going crazily jealous.
As I see him seeing his daughter, I feel more miserable.
You don't need your spouse.
Blood surely is thicker than water.
He didn't see her for more than 20 years.
But when he finally met her, he told me to leave.
He gave me the cold shoulder.
Come on, don't take it that way.
He probably just wanted to see her once.
I wanted a child so much.
I kept having a miscarriage.
If I've only had a child, I wouldn't have felt this miserable.
Don't cry. You've got me.
I'll be your daughter from today.
So don't cry.
Sun Han, you're the only one I can rely on now.
Are you being a drunk in front of Sun Han now?
Enough already.
Why didn't you tell me from the start?
If you have, I wouldn't have misunderstood and follow you!
If I have, would you have liked me to meet Bo Ra?
Did you look for Bo Ra as soon as you come back to Korea?
Stop being a bad drunk and go to bed.
I'm not drunk!
I told you I hate being treated like a drunk!
How good was it...
to have a meal with your daughter after telling me to leave?
Are you having a blast with your pretty daughter?
I didn't know you were this petty.
Is it that hard to comprehend that I met my daughter?
It is!
I can't understand as I don't have a daughter.
You know I can't have children.
How could you say that to me? You're so cruel!
You'll stop when I leave, won't you?
I'm not finished. Where do you think you're going?
I said I'm not finished.
The freshness of nature will come to your doorstep.
This is great.
Oh, Bo Ra, your commercial was just on now.
How could you look good even in a wetsuit?
Your popularity will hit the roof.
- Have you seen it? - Of course.
So how was the dinner with the director?
Yes, he bought me good food.
I'll go upstairs now. Goodnight.
- Right. You should go and rest. - Okay.
I got this back.
How did it go?
Seeing him in person brought up a lot of feelings.
I had a hard time keeping myself together.
Did he say anything?
He's happy I'm doing well.
He's happy you've found someone nice and is doing well too.
He wants to see me often.
Why? Why should he see you often?
What? I can see him.
Once was enough. Why again?
Why are you being so nosy?
I can take care of myself.
Still, I told you that I don't want you...
Hey, your clothes...
Oh, Mom. You're here.
I told you to knock.
I'm sorry.
I'm going downstairs.
What's with this tight atmosphere?
Did you tell CEO Na that the meeting is on the day after tomorrow?
I did. Jun Soo has some questions about the program,
so I told him you'd contact him.
Fine.
What were you talking about with Mom?
Nothing.
Something seems to be going on with Mom. She's not eating well.
Do you know anything?
No.
Did you hear from your real dad?
No.
As if. Try fooling a ghost. Something's going on with you.
I have a good hunch for these things.
Just go set up a meeting with Jun Soo.
Get out.
I'd like to tell you about the program.
Does one o'clock tomorrow work for you?
(New message)
What's this?
What? She's texting me at this hour to set up a time for tomorrow?
Her sense of time...
Can I really work on this show with her?
I don't want to write something long.
"Fine"? That's it?
What a cold person.
Bo Ra saw whom?
Her real father.
Her real father is in the US.
Did he come back to Korea?
He lives next door.
What?
Next door?
Yes. What do you think?
Do you think it's okay...
that Bo Ra's real father wants to see her now?
How would you feel if you were her?
They haven't seen each other all this time, right?
Why would they need to meet now?
Right? That's what I'm saying!
They lived like strangers up until now. What a joke.
Hae Shim!
Oh, come on in.
They were selling baked sweet potatoes, so I got some.
You look so down these days,
so I wanted you to eat something you like and cheer up.
Thank you.
They smell divine.
What did Kim Won Tae say to Bo Ra?
He said he wants to see her often.
So I said I don't want that, and Bo Ra thought I was being nosy.
Oh, my.
Is Bo Ra trying to give you a hard time?
Anyway, Won Tae knows no shame.
Soon, he'll want to walk Bo Ra down the aisle at her wedding.
What are you...
Why would you say such nonsense?
Joong Han gets up at the break of dawn to make Bo Ra breakfast!
Okay. I misspoke.
I'll go.
Geez.
Mrs. Lee!
Oh, sweet potatoes.
Do you want one?
It's really sweet! It's like honey.
Just looking at you eat makes me happy.
Oh, right.
- Mrs. Lee. - Yes?
I won a prize.
You won first place in the school essay contest?
I'm so proud of you.
I wrote a children's poem. I never knew I'd win a prize for it!
Byeo Ri, you write well just like your sister.
Can you read it to me?
Sure.
Title, "Mother Whom I Miss."
Like the clouds I can't reach even if I extend my hand,
like the wind I can't hold even if I grasp at it,
Mom's face becomes faint.
The cold autumn raindrops that fall down...
are the tears I shed because I miss my mom.
Byeo Ri,
you must miss your mother a lot.
I...
miss my mom a lot as well.
Mrs. Lee, don't cry.
Oh, right. Kang Dae Ro, the CEO of Wonky Box Lunch,
will be on television soon.
The producers wanted to do a pop-up store in our supermarket...
and follow them there while filming.
Is that so? What program is it?
It's a show called "Marketaurant."
Their main writer is my oldest daughter.
Oh, really.
Both your daughters are in the entertainment industry.
It just happened.
Well, if it's your daughter's show, I have to help.
Thank you, sir.
I think we got a good deal on the wonky radishes.
Chan Sung isn't fully healed yet,
so you're going through all this trouble.
Doing groceries is no trouble. It's fun like watching a circus.
I'm so happy we have you.
I'm not the type that depends on someone else,
but for some reason, I feel like I can depend on you.
I don't know my biological father's face.
My mom was a hairdresser. She was a single mom.
I traveled around with her here and there,
and she met my stepfather who ran a cart bar.
He treated me like his real son.
It takes two to tango. I'm sure he was nice because you were good.
After meeting him, my mom who loved drinking quit,
and it looked like we had a normal life, so I was happy.
But my mom passed away in a traffic accident.
Dad...
tried to raise me even after Mom died,
but his new shop went under,
so he had to run away from creditors.
I had to go to an orphanage,
and Dad went missing.
Even his death was reported.
What an unfortunate life you've had.
After I found out my dad was dead,
I felt...
as if I'm left all by myself in this world.
It must have been hard being alone.
But funnily enough,
seeing you reminds me of my dad.
Let's not talk about depressing stories like the soaked cabbage.
Oh, right. I need to wash the soaked napa cabbages.
Let's hurry. Go as quick as lightning.
Okay.
We're back.
Oh, dear.
You've already prepared the other ingredients.
You're back. The napa cabbages are seasoned perfectly.
You're going to eat all of it.
What are you, a green caterpillar?
Don't just do your best at eating. Do your best at working too!
Help move the ingredients.
Oh, my.
I didn't make it, but the kimchi spirit did.
It tastes just right.
Get me a couple of napa cabbages.
Okay.
It tastes awesome.
Here you go.
Oh, my goodness. It's sore!
My eyes are about to pop out.
Dear me!
- I thought you'd catch them. - It hurts!
Are you okay?
- It aches. - Rinse it off with water.
- Take the gloves off. - Okay.
Be careful.
When did you hurt your arm?
Wait. Let me see.
Get off already.
Isn't it a burn?
When did you get it?
I was lighting the furnace last year and burnt the sleeve.
That's where I got this.
Last year?
I didn't expect you here at this hour.
I had to do something else near here and stopped by.
Do something?
Didn't you come to tell me something?
Well, that is...
Jun Soo, I need your help.
How much do you need this time?
Around 100,000 dollars?
You need 100,000 dollars?
You lost your money on the stock market again?
If I don't pay it back by the end of this week,
they'll seize your mom's car first.
And you know the car is under my name.
I promise this will be the last time.
I don't have that much money, so I should also get loans.
Fine. Once I get the money, I'll pay you back right away.
Make sure you pay me the interest from the loan as well.
Of course.
And stop fighting with Mom, please.
You know lovers' quarrels are soon mended.
Don't worry.
Gosh. Okay.
Ms. Shin, it's been a while.
CEO Na. What brings you here?
This is my son's company.
What about you?
Oh, right. You're here because Jun Soo will appear on the show.
Geez.
You had a big fight with Producer Um and left so coldly.
When did you make up with her and started working together?
It just happened to turn out this way.
You should come to work from tomorrow.
You need to have a meeting about "Marketaurant" as well.
Stop wasting your money in cafes, just have meetings in the office.
Okay.
Yes.
Hello, CEO Na.
Hi. Sit down.
Thank you for the coffee.
It tastes great.
You can tell which coffee is good and which one is bad?
It's organic coffee without aspartame, glycerin,
and artificial coloring.
The coffee from vending machines is my type though.
I'm sure you have no idea...
what kind of artificial additives are in that coffee.
How ignorant.
What was that? Gosh.
I'm sorry.
It's even from your mouth.
Don't you know we should be careful with droplet infection these days?
It was intentional, wasn't it?
No way.
Should I pay you for the laundry?
Forget it.
Shoot.
Let's just cut to the chase.
Thank you for accepting to appear on the show.
It'd be better if we don't run into each other anymore,
but we have no choice because of the show.
So let's just leave out our personal feelings.
Pardon? I no longer have any personal feelings toward you.
So who is our counterpart who we'll have to compete against?
It's Mr. Kang Dae Ro, a famous YouTuber...
with the channel named "Dae Chan Brothers' Wonky Show."
Kang Dae Ro?
Will he even stand a chance to win with his ungradable produces?
But the concepts of the two teams are totally different.
It's like fancy dishes for royals versus dishes for commoners.
Please come up with the concept of your cuisine for the pre-meeting,
we'll have discussions with that for the show.
Okay.
Mom, it's me.
I'll go take a rest.
Come take a seat. I have something to tell you.
What is it?
I couldn't talk about it as Ah Ri came yesterday,
I don't want you to see your biological father anymore.
I'm against it.
No, I won't let you.
Mom, what's wrong with you?
I understand you two don't really like each other.
And that's why you got divorced.
But how can you tell me not to see my own dad?
What?
Do you think I'm doing this because of my personal feelings?
Then what is it?
You're holding a grudge against him,
and that's why you don't want me to see him.
Right.
Let alone my feelings,
how about your dad?
Don't you feel bad for him?
Since he married me, he has treated you like his own daughter.
Maybe, he paid more attention to you than Ah Ri, his real kid.
I know that too. I never denied it.
But your biological dad came to your dad's workplace as a boss...
and try to meet you secretly without revealing who he is!
It's so creepy and breaks my heart.
You didn't tell Dad about it either.
I can't...
because I know he'll be immensely shocked.
But you told me...
you and my biological dad drifted apart when he went abroad to study.
What's the problem then?
Well, I should've told him earlier...
No matter what you say,
he's my biological father, and it's undeniable.
Why can't I see my own biological dad?
What did you just say?
(No Matter What)
I guess you met him in the States.
The woman next door is your ex-wife's friend?
What a small world, especially Korea.
He'd be very uncomfortable if Dad finds out.
Bo Ra doesn't know his real dad cheated on you and betrayed you,
does she?
I shouldn't have covered up for him in the first place.
