(Episode 24)
Wake up. Can you hear me?
CEO Na?
Sir!
Wake up! Are you unwell? Are you all right?
Please...
help me outside.
Okay. Should I call the ambulance?
No.
Please take me out of here quickly.
Watch the steps.
Are you all right?
Take a deep breath.
Can you please get my bag?
Your bag? Where is it?
In the elevator.
Here. I got your bag.
- How many do you need? - Two.
Here you go.
Here's the water.
Are you choking on it?
I'm fine.
But what is the matter?
It's an anxiety attack.
It's the car on the left.
Please take me to the driver's seat.
What are you doing?
I lost my balance.
Would you be able to drive though?
Yes, I've calm down now.
But are you leaving now? What about the meeting?
I'm not appearing on this show.
What?
Wait...
Excuse me.
CEO Na just left in his car.
I know. I met him.
You said it's an ill-fate. Did he leave after seeing you?
I found him passed out in the elevator.
I barely calmed him down after medicating him.
He passed out?
His anxiety attack relapsed?
You knew he was sick?
That's that.
No can do. Let's start our meeting without him.
We'll be appearing on TV.
Goodness, Director Kang Dae Ro.
Nice to see you here. Welcome to our company.
Hello.
Is this your production company?
Yes.
We'll be producing "Marketaurant."
I'm a little foresighted.
I see.
People who ought to meet will end up meeting each other.
I agree. It must be fate.
- Oh, CEO Na! - Hey, Bo Ra.
Hey, Dae Ro.
I get to see you here again.
Oh, right. You two know each other.
You've seen each other at the awards.
We've met several times.
What? Have you been in touch?
It's not that. We met because of his Wonky Box Lunch.
I see.
Let's go. I'll take you.
Follow me.
Come on in.
You're here. Welcome.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hey, hasn't Jun Soo get here yet?
Your son felt unwell and left.
Jun Soo is unwell?
He was fine in the morning.
Na Jun Soo must be CEO Na's son.
Let me make a call to him.
Then good luck with the meeting and see you again.
Oh, sure.
Is he that sick?
He even flaked the meeting.
Let's sit down and talk. Sit. Bo Ra, you too.
The largest format of our program...
is the recipe battle between the two teams.
You've heard this through Ms. Shin, right?
- Yes. - Yes.
Then, Ms. Shin, would you explain the overall concept and process?
Sure. First of all, the first theme of the battle is health.
As a result of conducting the pre-interview,
the concept would be a noble meal versus a common meal.
We'd show the process of cooking by recording it in advance.
For live broadcasts, the final winner will be determined...
by adding the viewers' votes and reviewers' evaluation.
The common meal would be us.
Who would be the reviewers?
At the moment, we are casting Comedian Yoo Min Sang...
and Culinary Researcher Lee Hye Jung.
We asked for you to come up with dishes for the battle.
Have you decided on it?
Yes. We're thinking of doing wonky radish rice,
grilled deodeok, burdock kimchi, and spicy sandfish stew.
As wonky ingredients are our identity, we're keeping that.
You changed the whole meal.
I really liked hongsi diced radish kimchi
Have you tried the Wonky Box Lunch?
Of course, she's the first-ever lifetime member.
She did a lot of promoting.
Jun Soo, have you suddenly fall sick?
No.
Then why did you leave without attending the pre-meeting?
I don't want to do that program.
What? Why not?
I don't like any of the producers.
Whom? Producer Um? Ms. Shin?
Anyway, I won't join.
Although they don't seem nice at first, they're good at their job.
- You haven't even worked with... - I still don't want to.
Don't try to persuade me.
Still, who'd drop out like this?
This is a great opportunity to promote your company.
You're going to miss out if you don't do this.
I'm sorry. I'm hanging up.
(Wonky Box Lunch)
If we knew it was CEO Na who was producing this,
we should've declined.
Would it be too late to quit now?
How could we when we even did the pre-meeting?
Our opponent Na Jun Soo had to be his son out of everyone.
I know.
What a bad karmic bond.
Let's pay Na Seung Jin back for ruining your dad's company...
by bringing Jun Soo down a peg or two.
- Let's take it all back. - Let's do that.
We must win no matter what.
Enjoy.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I'll first try this.
It's very sweet and the crunchy texture is nice.
However, there were reports that this honeycomb...
that gives it the crunchy texture contains artificial paraffin.
Our kid was a regular here. What are you going to do now?
I'm going to sue.
Don't you have any conscience?
How could you do such a thing to food?
What will you do now? Talk to me!
Say something, will you?
Dae Ro, it's the green light.
Pardon?
Oh, I should head off.
Ms. Han, since I enjoyed eating that,
should I sing for you in return?
A song? That'd be great. What kind of song?
Listen.
My mom likes this song though.
All right.
The eyes we meet
Oh, my.
What are they saying?
I don't know yet
- I really don't know - Goodness.
Only my heart pounds
It must be love
You're such a good singer!
Joo Hyun Mi should retire now.
It was my mom's favorite song.
We went to the karaoke and bet lunch over it.
Really?
- But my mom scored 100 points! - What?
Mom was so happy, she jumped up and down.
Even though I lost, I was happy to see my mom laughing.
Oh, my.
You're such a good girl.
You're like Sim Cheong.
Do you know the second verse?
I don't.
That's fine.
Oh, Byeo Ri.
Go on home then.
- Okay. - Hurry now.
- Write to me. - I will.
Be safe.
I'm back.
Oh, you're home.
- Mrs. Lee. - Yes?
I want you to have this.
Goodness.
It's yaksik.
Where did you get it?
Someone gave it to me at school.
Is that so?
A parent must have brought it. Let's try it.
It's delicious!
They must have made it themselves at home.
They must be a good cook.
- It's good, right? - It is.
Oh, right. Byeo Ri, you've got mail.
This finally came.
Who is Ms. Han Eok Shim?
Is she a relative?
No.
I'm going up to my room.
Oh, okay.
I lost my parents when I was young as well.
It was lonely and tough.
That must be why when I see children without parents,
it makes me sad like looking in the mirror.
But Byeo Ri, you're truly smart and strong.
(Han Eok Shim)
Ms. Han Eok Shim?
I told you not to see her.
Now you're writing each other letters?
But Ah Ri, why aren't you letting me see her?
Well,
I told you she was suspicious.
She's never met you, but she cares for you so much.
There's no good deed done without a reason.
When she talks to me,
I can tell from her eyes that she's truthful.
Truthful?
You're too young to be able to tell something like that.
Oh, right.
This...
is the list of kids who wanted BTS's autograph.
Wait a little.
I've asked someone who's close to BTS for a favor.
I need to talk to you.
I have nothing to say.
I can't work with you.
Why?
Are you really going to be like this?
I had a hard time too.
Do you think it was easy for me to break up with you?
What?
My movie cranked in Korea, but it was fell through.
I thought I was about to debut as an independent film director.
It was my dream.
After it fell apart, I was torn to pieces as well.
Was that my fault?
My pride was hurt, so I couldn't tell you, darling.
I couldn't go back either.
Who's your darling?
Don't call me that.
I don't...
want to spend a second with you.
You know that?
- Oh, my, Sunny. - Aunt.
What was that?
Who was he?
Was that the man you lived with in the US?
It is.
He lives here?
He's CEO Na's son.
Daybreak's Na Jun Soo.
Oh my gosh.
My word.
I just thought you were interested in him.
But why was he so rude to you?
He's still very angry at me.
Let's go upstairs, Aunt.
One, two, three!
Oh, wow.
They're all talking about you.
Of course. I'm special like that.
"Grandma is so strong."
Kids these days don't write long sentences.
This needs to end.
Next time,
let's play a game where we need to use our brains.
Do you know what a consonant quiz is?
Consonant quiz?
I don't know what it is, but I'm up for it.
I'm confident I'll win.
Let's film it quickly and make some money,
so I can move out of here.
Where are you going to use all the money you make?
You're always talking about money.
Are you trying to live with your granddaughter, Byeo Ri?
I told you many times she's not my granddaughter.
Why don't you want to see your daughter?
Why are you bringing her up?
What did she do wrong?
Your wife passed away from a heart attack.
Life and death are providential.
That's not the reason!
She didn't even tell me...
that she was paying for her husband to study abroad.
So she lost her house, and after that, she got divorced.
Oh, dear.
But...
she completely hid the divorce from me.
Divorce is no big deal these days.
I said I wouldn't let her get divorced, ever!
Not before I died.
Here, have a glass.
What's the occasion?
Why did you want to have dinner with me?
You've been looking down the past few days.
Is something going on?
This is embarrassing, but I got remarried ten years ago.
At first, my wife and I said that we wouldn't have any secrets.
We were going to tell each other everything.
But in real life,
that wasn't so easy.
What's wrong? Do you have a secret that you can't tell your wife?
Bo Ra...
met her biological father without even telling me.
Mr. Shin.
She doesn't belong to you.
She may be your daughter,
but she's all grown up and has her own job.
She can take care of herself.
Right?
If that continues,
you keep expecting things from her and start to depend on her.
Yes.
You're right.
I want my children to become independent as soon as possible.
If it weren't for them,
I wouldn't have any woes with my wife.
Let's eat.
Dad has plans tonight.
Isn't Bo Ra coming down?
Bo Ra said she's on a diet.
Oh, I see.
Ah Ri, you started working at Na Production again today, right?
How was it? Did it go well?
Did they give you any grief?
No.
You know, Mom...
I don't know if I should tell you.
Geum Sook's son...
What about Jun Soo?
I found him passed out from an anxiety attack in the elevator,
I dragged him out and got him medicine.
Oh, dear.
Jun Soo has an anxiety disorder?
What about your ex-wife? You don't talk to her?
She passed away a little while ago.
In truth, I hated her a lot.
She fell in love with someone else and lost the house.
I had a hard time because of the betrayal.
Then I met Hae Shim and we found comfort in each other.
I thought my wounds had gotten better.
But...
it turns out they don't go away.
They come out all of a sudden, and I argue with my daughter.
Even now,
I can't forgive her.
Here. Have another glass.
By the way, Director Shin.
You're old school.
Life's a long journey, so how can you love one woman?
You need to see a variety of people to realize what true love is.
Pardon?
Love is like a traffic accident.
It happens unexpectedly.
It just happens.
I guess Jun Soo is drained these days.
He was fine when we talked on the phone.
How can he decide to pull out because he doesn't like the crew?
Is he whining like kids or what?
He said he's sick, but it might all be an excuse.
How fickle he is.
Who does he take after?
Takes after whom? Me?
Looks who's talking.
- I'm home. - Hey, Jun Soo.
I heard you got sick. Are you okay?
Yes, I feel better now.
I'll get some rest.
The herbal tonics were delivered. I'll bring it to you soon.
Okay.
Son.
Yes.
You don't have to do this.
I'll take care of my health.
I didn't want you to be on that show either.
Those wild girls will drain your energy.
Anyway, you made a good decision.
To be honest,
when you said you're doing a program with Jun Soo,
I figured you had a thing for him.
But do you really want things to work with him?
What's the point?
He growls at me if I go near him.
But I still want him on the show.
I didn't know you were a romantic.
I fell out of love with him when we were in the States.
But other guys are worse.
He was the best one.
How would I've known he'd be so successful?
So do you want to marry him?
He's become more smoking after all these years.
I want to get back with him.
Well, if that's how you feel, I should support you.
There was a man I liked.
But I had to break up with him because my grandma was against it.
Why else would I get married to a divorcee?
Right. I had no idea in the beginning.
I didn't know he was divorced.
He said he's having a drink today.
What do I care if it is with Bo Ra or his ex-wife?
Hey, until when are you going to avoid Mom?
That won't work.
It's ridiculous to hear you say that.
I'll take care of it.
By the way,
I saw the kitchenhand lady in front of our house.
She was seeing off Byeo Ri and watching her.
I think you were right about it.
I know. There's something between them.
How should I reveal her identity?
I'm hungry.
I should drink Solomon's seal tea.
Hae Shim.
I'm home.
You had a lot to drink.
You'll wake the kids up. Go to bed already.
Honey, my boss...
turns out...
to be a free-spirited man.
He was hilarious.
It was hilarious today.
Honey.
Do you know what Director Kim said today?
"Hey."
"How can you love one woman?"
"Love is like a traffic accident."
A traffic accident?
How can you love someone new each time?
Can you wear one and change it like an old shoe?
How can he compare love to shoes?
It was so funny.
Director Kim was so funny.
I had a drink with Director Shin.
I didn't ask, but you're answering.
Did you want to hear about Bo Ra again?
Is that why you had a drink with her dad?
I said it to be honest with you. What's with you?
Does Bo Ra's dad know that you are the biological dad?
No, he doesn't know yet.
Why are you keeping it from him?
Next, you can meet your ex-wife.
Don't try to put me in a corner.
It's suffocating.
It's not like I've done wrong.
Would you feel better if I met him without telling you?
There.
Try it.
Is this the spicy sandfish stew that will be on the show?
Yes.
Oh, let me see.
Goodness.
It's so light and refreshing.
The mushroom brings out the flavor.
Really?
We should win the recipe battle whatever happens.
But who are we competing against?
CEO Na Jun Soo of Daybreak.
That mean guy who's like Mr. Byun?
We should definitely win.
Definitely. It turns out that CEO Na is the son...
of Producer Na who ruined Dae Ro's dad. He's like an enemy.
What?
Producer Na?
Do you mean the person who did the "Food Report"?
Yes.
That's why we'll do our best to win this.
Sure. Even if it means everything, you must win.
Ms. Han, why don't we eat up and go check the pop-up restaurant?
Right. Let's do that.
We just parked our car.
Yes, sir.
They want us to come to the first floor.
Let's go.
Yes. Over here.
Welcome.
This is my partner...
I am Ban Chan Sung. Nice to meet you.
It's nice to meet you.
This is our kitchenhand lady...
Where did she go?
Ms. Han?
Goodness me.
(No Matter What)
- I'll come up with something. - What should I do for you?
I will go on "Marketaurant."
What was your relationship with him?
That old lady vanished.
She's very suspicious.
Can I see your ID card?
I don't have one.
- Did you tell Bo Ra? - What's up?
I will tell you why I divorced him.
