(Episode 37)
What's this about?
Gwang Tae, are you kidding me?
What do you mean?
How can you be so inconsiderate?
You're not making any sense.
I've known you for 29 years now,
but what has gotten into you?
You're not the person you used to be before marriage.
What do you mean?
Who are you to act like you've always been privileged?
What was this gesture? You're unbelievable.
A mere dish of spicy monkfish? You go crazy for it.
You once set down your pride to mooch off what Unit 402 ordered,
but now you're tipping the waitress?
What's with you?
I only did it so that we could have an enjoyable honeymoon.
I've never tipped a waitress before in my life.
How could I when I had no money?
Still, it felt great to receive tips myself,
so I told myself to be a generous tipper...
once I come into money.
What's so bad about that?
Do you have some sort of inferiority complex?
What? Inferiority complex?
The same thing happened when we drove here.
Why did that clunker of a truck have to go ahead of us?
Clunker?
I take that back.
If I had known, I wouldn't have come with you.
Likewise.
I couldn't even brag...
because I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
Ki Jin's brother booked a high-class venue for us,
but we had to give it up since it was way above your league.
Way above my league?
Stop taking issue with what I said and admit the facts.
You're the one who wanted a joint wedding.
And I'm totally regretting it.
I could've made those who belittled me eat their words,
but you robbed me of that chance.
You...
Whatever.
Just keep Ki Jin in order.
He should listen to his seniors and take the drinks he is offered.
Ye Seul is his senior, not his peer.
How dare he call Ye Seul an aspiring singer?
How rude can he get?
Why is that so bad when they're close in age?
Close in age? He's three years older than you...
and I'm five years older.
It must be nice to be old.
What? Did you call us old?
You're being hilarious, you know that?
Is this funny to you?
This isn't just about us now. We both now have our own families,
and there's a hierarchy that should be maintained.
Don't disrupt it.
Put a smile back on and follow me.
This is great.
Where did you go in the middle of a meal?
I had something urgent to say.
What was it about?
I don't know. She's being unreasonable.
Let's go sing karaoke after dinner.
Let's hear from the aspiring singer.
Sure, let's do that.
Is it good?
Well...
- All right. - I like red.
Nice. How do we look?
- It suits you. - It's as if you were born this way.
All right. So how about a bet?
I'm not confident enough for that.
I can't seem to get high scores.
That sounds like an excuse to me.
How about the battle of couples?
The losing couple will pay for the karaoke room.
Okay, let's do it.
The aspiring singer probably has an advantage,
but let's do it. The aspiring singer should go first.
The younger ones should go first.
The aspiring singer will go first.
There we go.
Like salmon swimming up the currents of a river
- You guys should listen. - The mystical reasons
That only they are aware of
Just how much further must they swim?
(You should try harder.)
I guess you're not the life of the party.
Please try harder next time.
I just can't seem to do it.
You do when we're on dates.
Aren't you going soft on them?
There's a secret to getting high scores on karaoke machines.
The aspiring singer might not be aware of it,
but we commoners are.
- Singing as loudly as possible? - That's it.
Here I go then.
I'll be your personal entertainer
And make you laugh for the rest of your life
Always and forever, I will never change
- I'm your personal entertainer - Entertainer
(You're close to debuting as a singer!)
You only chase ideals, there's no woman
Who'd approach you first just because of your gaze
That's me as well
(You should try harder.)
Unbelievable.
I did great, so it's okay.
They won't win unless she gets 100 points.
Then I say we lost.
I have no choice but to get a score of 100 then.
Dating is essential
But marriage is a choice
Just do as your heart says
Amor fati
I have to admit that was good.
A score of 100!
Gwang Sik, that was incredible.
You should be formal toward my sister and her husband.
That was incredible.
You're rich enough, so go ahead and pick up our tab.
- Sure. - You're paying because you lost,
not because you're well-off.
Maybe I should try being a singer too.
It's not something you can decide so easily...
just because you got a high score on a karaoke machine.
If that were true, I would've become one myself.
- You're right. - Right.
Can we go back to our own rooms then?
- Let's go. - Come on.
Just a second. Gwang Tae, stay behind for a while.
Ki Jin, can you wait outside?
You too, honey.
- Right. - Sure.
- Let's go grab a beer. - Sounds good.
What is it this time? Can you stop being such a stickler?
Have you forgotten that we're on a honeymoon?
Be honest with me. You're not pregnant, are you?
A pregnant woman wouldn't jump up and down like that.
I caught on a while ago,
but I was waiting for you to tell me the truth.
You're married now, so come clean.
I won't tell you off.
Unbelievable! What did you get yourself into?
You said you wouldn't tell me off.
That's not what I'm doing. What if you get caught?
The marriage was approved only because you were pregnant.
Forget about our dad. What about Ki Jin's brother?
I just have to get pregnant fast.
I'll get on it right away tonight.
Tonight? Just like that?
Do you think it can be done on command?
You're killing me, Gwang Tae.
Don't you worry. We came here as a family of two,
but we promised to return home as a family of three.
Seriously?
(Shining under Starlight)
I guess this is our first time drinking together.
You must feel lonely after marrying off...
two daughters at once.
Did they call?
Yes. I talked to the four of them on the phone earlier.
Gosh, the building feels so empty with Bong Ja gone as well.
But why are you still awake? Is something bothering you?
Of course I have my own concerns.
I understand. Ttu Gi is only seven now.
When Ttu Gi gets married, you will be...
about 80.
So who's Ttu Gi's dad?
Do you really not know who he is?
Actually, I found Ttu Gi's dad.
What? You found him?
What does he do?
He's the chef of a jjimdak restaurant.
That's good. What's there to worry about?
Why? Is he married?
No, that's not it.
Don't ask me any more questions. It's frustrating.
Don't tell Bong Ja though.
Do you know where Bong Ja went?
I don't know.
She cooked a lot of side dishes,
so I guess she'll be gone for a few days.
I didn't even ask.
I went to Dol Se's earlier, but he wasn't home either.
Did the two of them elope?
What?
(Chairman Heo Pung Jin)
Tell me what's on your mind.
Are you still hung up on that girl who was your first love?
She's not a girl. She's an old lady.
Gosh.
Well done, guys.
We will have Dol Se take care of the loans...
and wash our hands of the whole thing.
And I want you to take good care of Ki Jin.
Yes, sir.
I don't know why I'm feeling this way.
Now that Ki Jin is married, I feel like I've finished my job.
My heart feels somewhat empty.
You should get married to the lady from back then.
Don't talk about her.
Once they're back from the honeymoon,
I'll register their marriage.
You can't do that, sir.
I know how you've built your fortune.
People don't change.
I have an idea.
Don't worry. We can get pregnant before we get caught.
Trust me.
You should trust me.
I have something to tell you.
I'm okay even if you dated 100 guys...
or if you are divorced.
It's not like that.
When I found out about you,
I kicked you down for hiding it from me.
It really hurt.
To be honest, I was so happy that I almost passed out back then.
Seriously? Weren't you upset?
That's just what happens in dramas.
In dramas, girls get angry about guys hiding their identities.
But don't you think it's ridiculous?
Isn't it that they're upset for being fooled?
"A guy whom I thought was rich was actually poor."
And "a guy whom I thought was poor was actually rich."
These are two very different stories.
But you hit me.
I just did it to get on your good side.
I didn't want you to think that I'm a snob.
So I want to apologize now.
You were with me when I was poor.
You said you'd take care of me with all your money,
which was 234.50 dollars.
You were so cool back then.
What guy wouldn't fall for a girl who's willing to support him...
in this day and age?
Thank you...
for coming to me and lurking around me.
And...
for putting up with me all this time.
Thank you so much.
That's it for today's conversation.
Honestly, I didn't hear anything you just said.
This is our first night.
If we're to go home as a family of three,
we should hurry.
Hey, stop.
- Why? - Get off me.
- What? Come here. - I'm not ready.
- We need to be a family of three. - Hold on.
- Let's do this. - Hey, wait.
Hey, Unit 401. Lee Gwang Sik.
Ta-da.
I'll get to see that for the rest of my life.
You're no fun.
I'll get sulky.
Do you want a cold beer?
Wait.
Did you bring beer?
We don't need to pay more.
The minibar is at least five times more expensive.
Let's just forget about those things and have fun tonight.
What are you writing?
Our future plans.
I want to be well-off.
Gwang Tae and I got married on the same day,
but we're starting off at different points,
and it feels like we have a long way to go.
We should just live our own lives without comparing ourselves to them.
I guess I have an inferiority complex.
I envy those who don't have to work and have a lot to inherit.
But we have no one to inherit a single penny from.
We have to scrimp and save...
if we want to buy our own house at the age of 50.
- Who is it? - It's me, Gwang Tae.
- Hey. - What are you doing?
Stop. Be careful.
Come here. Hey.
Hey, Gwang Tae!
Come on.
I'm really upset.
- I'm going to get you. - Go away.
Hey, come here. I'm getting really upset.
- Gosh, I'm sorry. - Don't come.
Sorry, Gwang Sik.
- I got you. - Good night. Sweet dreams.
Let go of me. Hey!
Gosh, that's unbelievable.
Honey, why don't we hurry and...
We have to save money to stop paying rent.
We should cut down our expenses unless they are necessary.
We should discuss things before spending big money.
And we should give the same amount of money to our fathers.
I will make money to cover our living expenses somehow.
But you don't have a fixed income.
Still, I'm the head of the house. I'll do it.
All right.
Let's begin then.
Let's split the living expenses evenly.
We'll pay 500 dollars each to make 1,000 dollars per month.
And we should save what we each make.
And about...
We'll check our savings once a year to talk about...
what to invest in and how to increase our fortune.
Honey, we will live together for the rest of our lives.
We can talk about it later. I can't wait.
Two people are living together.
It no longer makes sense that only one of them...
will support and feed the other in this day and age.
My point is...
that you don't have to worry about money.
You just focus on your audition.
I'll repay Dae Chang 3,000 dollars when we get home.
I'm so lucky to have met someone like you.
Gwang Tae is probably laughing since she doesn't have such worries.
Probably, yes.
I want you to remember me fondly in our last moment together.
Did the two of them elope?
Dol Se, are you home?
Yes, Cheol Soo.
Where were you? You didn't take my calls.
I went to the sea for some air.
Shouldn't you be asleep?
What about Bong Ja?
She told me to leave first, so I did.
Why did you leave her there alone?
She wanted to be alone.
We agreed to remain in-laws.
Oh, dear.
You must feel so bad.
And Bong Ja too.
I owe you a great debt.
You gave my girls everything you had.
You even gave up your love.
How can I repay you for this?
This ring was passed down in my family for generations.
I think you should have it.
I'm giving it to you because I can't repay you,
so please accept it.
Cheol Soo.
Yes? When did you come back?
Just now.
I'm not sure if I deserve to have this ring.
You deserve it more than anyone.
It's from me, so take it.
Have it reset however you like and wear it.
Where did you go?
The seaside.
It's really pretty at night.
Are you all right?
I have to be. It was my choice.
Thank you, Bong Ja.
I should thank you.
I wouldn't have nieces if it weren't for you.
What would I have lived for if I didn't have them?
They'll be back for dinner. I should go grocery shopping.
Why are you back so early?
We didn't have much else to do.
Why would newlyweds have nothing to do?
Gwang Sik, did you have sweet dreams?
I didn't dream at all.
You wouldn't have time to dream.
Dad, don't go too far in front of your daughter-in-law.
What? What did I say?
You'd have to make plans...
and talk about so much stuff that you'd have no time for dreams.
How is that going too far?
We actually did make plans all night.
Don't even mention it.
Don't.
Father, I got you a gift. I got my dad the same thing.
You two can wear matching shirts and look like twins.
It's pretty. Cheol Soo will love it.
You must be hungry. I'll set the table.
Let us.
Stay here while we do it.
He had everything set out already.
Don't.
I didn't hear anything.
You can start work tomorrow.
Manage the building,
and find a spot for a new restaurant.
I discussed that with Gwang Tae already.
Money is hard to save but easy to spend.
Flies will cling to you, so make wise decisions.
Don't worry. I'll keep a close eye on him.
You should watch your health.
Of course.
This is for you.
Buy whatever you need to run the house.
My gosh. Is this for me? Thank you.
I've never had a credit card before.
Also...
Here.
They're my rice and soup bowl and my silverware.
It's kind of a symbol that I'm a member of the family now.
You really did just bring that?
May I say something, sir?
Yes, you can. You're family too.
The chairman is the elder of this family.
You could say he's more like your father-in-law.
Please treat him as such.
Should I call him "Father," then?
Not at all.
He's your brother-in-law.
Okay, Pung Jin.
Well, yes. Sa Chae.
Sure.
Give this to your father-in-law.
Thank him for sending his daughter, along with a very special dowry.
Is this for my dad? Thank you, Pung Jin.
Our dear sweetie.
Bye, Dad.
Take this with you.
It's red ginseng and something good for hair loss.
Cheol Soo's wish is to be able to part his hair.
Thanks for looking out for him. We'll visit you often.
Okay.
We'll get going.
I feel so strange, seeing him standing alone.
My aunt has a big family at least.
He'll be alone all the time.
We didn't get to wish them luck at the wedding, so let's do it now.
Shouldn't the father-in-law do this?
Who cares who does it? It's just for fun.
Okay, then.
Gwang Sik.
Have lots of sons and daughters...
and live happily and have fun.
Gwang Tae. I hope you have a smooth delivery...
and live happily.
Oh, dear.
I caught nothing.
You must be happy, Cheol Soo.
You got two sons-in-law at once.
"Cheol Soo?" Did you just call him by his name?
Why? What else would I call him?
What's the occasion? You always called him "mister."
We agreed on it.
Right, Taeng Ja?
Dad, this is from my father-in-law.
My gosh.
This is so expensive.
He must have spent a fortune.
This prevents hair loss.
He hopes you can part your hair again.
Doctors really should develop something for this.
Why touch what isn't even there?
This is a matching shirt.
Wear it when you're out together.
My gosh.
Look at this. It's pretty.
Dad, we brought gifts too.
This is from my brother-in-law.
Gwang Sik brought a bag of stuff and this is it from you?
Is it honey? It looks like honey.
This is from him too.
What is it?
My gosh. A department store gift card?
My gosh. This is 300 dollars' worth.
This is for you. There's one for Gwang Nam too.
Gosh.
What is this?
My gosh, look at that.
We ordered it from a department store for you.
You need more than money to buy luxury items.
You have to make a reservation.
My gosh. Something like this costs a few thousand, right?
You're out of touch.
Something like that costs tens of thousands at least.
This is too valuable.
This is just wrong.
I think it's right. You should keep it.
Try it on, Dad.
I can't. My hands are shaking too much.
Let me help you.
Goodness.
- How do I look? - Amazing!
Dad, you look great.
Dad, there's also a letter for you.
Let me read it for you.
"Dear, my in-law."
"I'm truly grateful for sending us your daughter..."
"with the priceless dowry anyone can hope for."
"I didn't know how to express my gratitude,"
"so I send this gift despite it not being too grand."
"From Heo Pung Jin."
Ki Jin, please tell him that I'm truly grateful.
You won the jackpot thanks to your daughter.
Like I said, Gwang Tae was a diamond in the rough.
And that she will one day shine.
Cheol Soo, stop looking at the watch and let's eat.
Sure thing.
We should eat.
Our Ki Jin must be hungry.
- Let me. - Goodness.
This is right in my books.
Absolutely right!
Wifey, what are you up to?
I was working on my bucket list.
- What? - Don't you worry.
It's not like I'm dying.
It's something I've been determined to do someday.
"Just wait and see. Once I make it big,"
"I'll be back here as a customer."
I thought that the most...
when I worked part-time at a high-end barbecue restaurant.
We should go there right away. Why not just buy the restaurant?
There's no need for that.
I just want to have the most expensive menu there...
while being treated as a VIP guest.
Anyway, I was writing down a list of restaurants to go to.
Don't they give food to employees though?
I ate my fill while working at the jjimdak restaurant.
That's only because your brother owns the place.
I got my hopes up when working at a barbecue joint.
I thought I'd at least get my fill of meat,
but I was only served doenjang jjigae and rice.
- No meat? - No.
They wouldn't give something so pricey to part-timers.
Smelling it all day almost made me lose it.
But then, one day, a customer left without finishing the food.
While cleaning the table, I gobbled it all up.
But just then,
the customer who left came back in.
Why?
He only left for a smoke.
- So what happened? - Isn't it obvious?
I received an earful,
didn't get paid for the work I did and got fired.
I guess it's now a fond memory.
A fond memory, my foot. It's one that hurts.
You won't ever be hurt like that again.
Eat whatever you want and don't worry about the price.
Really?
My husband is the best.
I feel great today, you know.
Seeing how happy my dad was made me proud.
I thought I married the right guy for sure.
Thank you, husband.
I was hoping to ask you a favor.
If it's not money you need, then fire away.
My brother.
He's like my father, you see.
You can treat me however you want,
but please treat my brother with the utmost respect.
He...
He had it rough, you see.
I was able to do whatever I wanted in life,
so my heart aches whenever I think of him.
You know how smart I am.
Being nice to your brother...
is how I can have you eating out of my hand,
so why would I not do it?
Smart as always.
I'll make sure that you never cry again...
because of your guilt toward your brother.
Why did it take me so long to meet you?
If only we had met at the age of 20.
My dad has changed.
Did you see him thrilled over a single watch?
I bet it upset you earlier.
Must you ask?
He acted like only Ki Jin was his son-in-law.
You know what? I guess I have no choice.
I wasn't going to become successful, but I must do it.
Just wait and see. Once I made it big,
I'll upgrade that watch of his to one that's even bigger...
and hand out gift certificates worth 1,000 dollars...
to your aunts and sisters.
You have such a big heart.
It's nice that Ki Jin can do what I can't.
Did that bother you today?
Well, it's just that...
I can't let my younger sister be a better daughter.
Be patient and believe in your husband.
All right.
It's weird, you know.
Sharing a room with Gwang Tae wasn't all that comfortable,
but I can't fall asleep without you anymore.
- When it's only been a day? - That's right.
Maybe we were born as a couple that was meant to be.
You're adorable when you get all dramatic.
Can I put my legs on top of yours?
Hit me with all you've got. There are about 20, right?
I'm sleeping right by your side. I won't allow any space between us.
How did you manage to sleep alone for 34 years?
Tell me about it.
That reminds me. I'll open the bistro early tomorrow,
so eat breakfast there.
- Okay, okay, it's okay - Okay, it's okay
I hope you find fame soon...
so that you can be the apple of my dad's eyes.
What are you doing out of bed?
I'm ironing my shirt for tomorrow. I have a trial.
What about her?
Has she been popping over to see her family...
without even ironing your shirts?
- It's my turn to do this. - Darn it with those turns.
Is she actually sleeping through all this?
This is just wrong.
- Hey! - Please don't.
She... My gosh. She has work in the morning too.
Unbelievable. Are you that proud of her?
One might think she has some honorable job.
She barely earns enough anyway.
Your salary is ten times greater.
This is a joke.
All she earns is probably spent...
on transportation fees and her clothes...
and it's not like she earns much.
Mother, think of how she used to be though.
She didn't earn any money nor do anything around the house.
She now does half the chores while working a job.
- Isn't that commendable? - Commendable?
One might think you're talking about your daughter.
Think of her as your daughter then, and you'll be proud too.
Aren't you off to the bathroom? It's currently unoccupied.
I feel bad for the woman who gave birth to you.
Unbelievable.
- My gosh. Good morning. - Morning, Ms. Gwang Tae.
Are you the one making breakfast?
I guess I can lounge around then.
You still have to set the table,
do the dishes, and do household chores...
since you're now the lady of the house.
I've worked part-time for ten years, so it's a piece of cake.
Get accustomed to how things are in this house.
But I was thinking about changing things up.
Since we're the same age, let's call each other by name.
Are you cool with that, Sa Chae?
Are you all right?
I forgot to discard the stem at the top.
Keep patting, will you?
You're wearing yours too.
One might think we're twins.
That'd be my loss then.
Why you...
Can you see if any new hairs are growing?
Doesn't it seem that way?
If the product was that effective, it would've won a Nobel Prize.
I wonder what time it is.
It's past mealtime.
Gosh, the lights here are...
Hey, can't you spot anything different about me?
In what way? You look pretty much the same.
Did you get Botox injections without telling me?
Darn it.
How can you survive in this world being this dim-witted?
Can't you see this? Unbelievable.
Oh, the watch. You should've said something sooner.
Where did you pick it up?
Pick it up?
As if anyone would drop a nice watch like this.
Take a closer look. Beautiful, isn't it?
My youngest's brother-in-law...
wanted to thank me...
for raising her well.
I'm well aware of why you're saying this to me.
I'm sorry, okay?
Should I sell myself to buy you one too?
As if anyone would pay for someone like you.
It's probably fake though.
I know how Pung Jin is.
What?
I'm only kidding.
You can sit at the big boy table now that you have a watch like that.
How did I know I'd get so lucky in life?
Catch her, you say? You should've done your job!
You don't even have the strength.
When will you learn that you're lucky to have me?
Why isn't she showing up though?
Darn it.
Bang Gi, I'm almost at your shop,
and I spotted some creditors nearby.
If they spot me, it'll only make it hard for you too.
I'll stay clear of your shop for a few days.
I'm sorry about this. I promise to make it up to you.
You'll take legal action?
I've been looking to hire a lawyer.
I'm Ttu Gi's dad,
and I will use the law to take custody of her.
Go ahead. But remember who you're up against.
Do I seem like someone...
who will easily let you take my daughter?
Ttu Gi won't agree to live with you either.
Her future is what you should consider,
not just your current situation.
Think of your age.
In 20 years, Ttu Gi will be 27 and I'll only be 47.
Meanwhile, you'll be 75.
You don't have to point it out for me to know.
Must you say it like that when being old is bad enough?
Fine, I'm old. So what?
You must be proud to be so young, darn it.
That's not what I meant.
This isn't a matter to be emotional over.
Ttu Gi's life should only be our concern.
And with that in mind,
anyone would agree that she's better off...
with me, her father.
- Taeng Ja. - Bong Ja?
What was that just now? Ttu Gi's father?
Isn't he one of the men who came by to collect Gwang Tae's debt?
He is. Bong Ja, we should talk outside.
Just a second.
Did I perhaps hear wrong?
You said you were Ttu Gi's father, didn't you?
That's right. I'm Ttu Gi's biological father.
Unbelievable!
Gosh. That hurts, Bong Ja.
You crazy cow.
What will the neighbors think?
How did you end up with a man half your age?
Brother Tes, what's the matter with Taeng Ja?
This is killing me too.
He didn't seem that young back then,
and people think I'm younger than my age.
You crazy cow.
Anyone would see you as mother and son.
Just how much younger is he?
Age is only a number, you know.
Let's be honest here. I don't seem that older than him.
Everything he said was right.
Ttu Gi is better off with him than with a mother like you.
Anyone else would've turned a blind eye,
but the young man wants to raise his child himself.
He has a solid job as a chef and is young,
so she's better off with him.
You can barely manage yourself at this age,
so how can you be so greedy?
I can't send her to him.
How can I live without her?
Bong Ja, I can't live without Ttu Gi,
and she needs me in her life too.
I wouldn't be worried if you were 40 years old.
Don't you feel bad for that young child?
You'll need money to put her through school,
but you can't afford her education.
That's what I have you for.
You crazy cow. I'm not getting any younger!
I have my nieces.
Are you insane?
Who would bother to raise their young cousin...
when they're busy raising their own children?
Forget about everything else and only consider Ttu Gi's future.
Forget it. You stay out of this too.
I will take care of my daughter.
How can he think that he has any rights here?
I'll speak up in court!
And still, no one will side with you.
These are the cards Ttu Gi was dealt.
I can't believe we got to meet him like this.
This is like a gift from above.
Now, hand me his number.
Please have a seat.
I'm sorry we're meeting under such circumstances.
We weren't able to properly greet each other earlier.
I'm Oh Bong Ja, Ttu Gi's aunt.
Right. Well, I'm Byun Gong Chae.
You must've been surprised.
Who knew you'd get involved with a thief, right?
Goodness. Words just flew out since you're like family now.
Anyway, what happened is in the past now.
I only got to meet you today,
but my heart goes out to you since you're Ttu Gi's father.
My little sister has never been a decent person.
She was never loved by our parents growing up...
which led her to act out.
It's why I've always had a soft spot for her.
Anyway, I'd like for us to honestly discuss...
what you'd like to do from here on out.
My sister will be impossible to talk to...
since she only cares about not losing Ttu Gi.
Above everything, I just feel bad for Ttu Gi.
I know from growing up in an orphanage myself.
Moving from one orphanage to another for years...
made her grow up too fast.
I know that.
That hurts the most. Kids should grow up like kids.
I didn't know that she existed,
but now that I do, I won't let her grow up this way.
I want to be a proper father to her...
and I will be.
When Ttu Gi first met me,
she asked me to take her in...
saying that she was good at mopping floors and doing errands.
She said she didn't eat much...
which made her better than a pet dog. My gosh.
I'm going to raise her,
so I ask for your cooperation.
Well, taking her home with you...
may not be the best course of action though.
We should consider what Ttu Gi wants too.
What Ttu Gi wants?
Good or bad, Taeng Ja is still her mom.
Would she be willing to leave her mom...
to live with a man she barely knows?
Even if the judge grants you full custody,
we should think about what she wants.
You want to raise her no matter what though, right?
That's right.
What do we do then?
This is purely my own opinion,
and you can call me shameless all you want.
But since...
you two have a daughter...
I can't even bring myself to say it.
Well, my sister may be old on paper,
but she doesn't look her age.
That being said...
My gosh.
I know I shouldn't even ask,
but it's for Ttu Gi's sake.
Could you just think that you lost your chance in this life,
take a leap with your eyes closed,
and start a family with Taeng Ja?
What?
Ye Seul and Ki Jin, come to Father's place tonight.
(Lawyer Bae Byun Ho)
Yes, sir!
You shouldn't start singing yet.
It might damage your vocal cords.
But I'm preparing for an audition now.
If you keep singing, your voice might change.
And you might not be able to hit high notes.
In the long run,
it'd be better to give up on this audition.
Okay, okay, there's no giving up
Good luck to my life
On the stage that is called life
It's me. I'm practicing.
I called you earlier, but you didn't answer.
I know. I was busy practicing.
Aren't you hungry?
I just ate the lunch you packed me.
Then keep up the good work. Good luck.
Okay.
What? Are you hanging up just like that?
Then what?
What's with you?
I guess you forgot to give me a kiss.
All right then. Here's my kiss, honey.
Gosh.
Dae Chang is here, and he hates it.
Okay.
She says she will teach you a lesson.
Did the doctor say you're okay?
Yes.
That's good. Let's do this right.
(I'll be there.)
I'll be there. I'm sorry for my late response.
If you're sorry, you should text me back sooner.
I'll take this too.
Goodbye.
I love the numbers in red.
I hate blue. It gives me chills.
I won't wear anything blue nor look at the blue sky.
I bet those who invest in stocks understand how I feel.
(Chairman Heo Pung Jin)
She's buying up the whole department store.
Don't bother.
At this rate, we'll soon lose this building, sir.
I'm worried to death...
if she'd throw away all your money and even this building.
(Shining under Starlight)
- You're here. - Hey, Ki Jin.
- You go first. - No, you go first.
Then I'll go first since I look good from behind.
When are they coming?
They should be here soon.
I'm here.
Hello, come on in.
I'm here too.
Hello, Byun Ho.
Hello. Good to see you, Ki Jin.
- Father, I'm here. - Okay.
- Hello, Ye Seul. - Hello.
Now that they all are here, let's begin.
All the sons-in-law are here.
You must be excited, Cheol Soo.
I am excited.
And I'm really happy to have three in-laws...
who are like big brothers.
You are?
Okay, okay, it's okay
Whatever the world says
Okay, okay, there's no giving up
Good luck to my life
- Well done. - You're the best.
Taeng Ja, go ahead and cook the meat.
Why would I? You have your sons-in-law here.
You cook it since you're the youngest.
But I have a wrist problem.
Why? Did you count money all night?
How did you know?
- I'll do it then. - Okay.
Give me that.
Okay.
Look at you.
There you go.
Why is Byun Ho so late?
- He's visiting my father. - Again?
Why does your family keep calling him over when he's so busy?
Byun Ho called over his brothers-in-law.
I guess he's excited.
What a moron. What is he excited about?
Why did you not iron his shirts and make him do it at night?
I forgot to take it to the cleaners.
The cleaners?
You should iron them yourself. Why would you go to the cleaners?
Who irons shirts at home these days?
A lot of people do.
You said you would be frugal.
I'm all thumbs, so I'm not good at ironing.
You just talk back to me all the time.
You were like that before, and you haven't changed at all.
Mother, I made this baby food with shredded beef.
It's for Blessing.
It's hot.
Didn't you even cool it down?
What if Blessing scalds his tongue?
I did cool it down.
It's not that hot, Mother. Touch it again.
You took this out of the fridge and heated it again, right?
You just saw me make it.
It's not like I watch what you do 24 hours a day.
You asked what I was doing,
so I answered I was making Blessing's food.
You just never let things slide.
Can't you just say "Yes, Mother?"
This is why I don't like you.
Blessing's mom would always say, "Yes, Mother. I'll do that."
But you talk back to me every time.
You still have a long way to go.
Gosh.
Eat up.
Father, I'll teach my minions well.
- Are they obedient? - Yes, they are.
- Am I right, Ye Seul? - Sure.
- Do you want more meat? - Do we have more?
We have a lot.
- All right. - That's for me.
- Here. - Gosh.
It's good, right?
Byun Ho, our building is clean and has a good location.
Why don't you move your office?
I'll talk to the CEO.
Actually, our office is too small, so he's thinking about moving.
You should come sometime.
I'll treat you to a meal and show you around.
Shall I?
Ki Jin is a big help.
We have all kinds of sons-in-law.
A lawyer, a building owner, and an aspiring singer.
Why would you call him an aspiring singer?
If he sings, then he's a singer.
But he hasn't made his official debut yet.
Can I tell them that we sang on our honeymoon?
On our honeymoon, we had a bet while singing karaoke.
And I got a higher score than the aspiring singer.
But Gwang Sik got 100 points at the last moment,
so I had to pay.
How could a singer lose to non-singers?
I know.
- Hey. - I'm here.
What's all that?
Gosh, why did you bring so many things?
You're pregnant. You shouldn't carry heavy things.
- Did you eat? - I did.
I bought some fruit and meat.
This isn't like what you buy at a traditional market.
They're from a department store. They are much sweeter.
Dad, I bought prime Korean beef at the department store.
- This is what you should eat. - My gosh.
It looks so delicious. Look at this.
The marbling looks amazing, right?
Dad, would you like to try some?
You don't need to ask. Just cook it already.
When else would I get to eat my fill with meat?
Let's try it. Gwang Tae got it for me.
Ye Seul, take this.
Give me that.
When did you get here?
You didn't even notice when I came in.
- Have a seat. - It's so good.
- Is it good? - Eat up.
- Are you cooking the meat? - Yes.
- I'll do it. - No, you should eat.
All right. Now that we have beef, we should start over.
Father.
Please let me pour you a drink.
Earlier, you said you had a wrist problem,
so you couldn't cook.
Ttu Gi, you're so brilliant.
I got better after eating the meat.
Ye Seul, make sure not to overcook the beef.
Okay.
Why don't you call Gwang Nam too?
Byun Ho, give her a call.
Okay.
Really?
I can't come over right now.
I said no.
You have fun.
Bye.
- Did you enjoy it? - Yes.
It was delicious.
It was.
The chairman would like a word.
What is it, Pung Jin?
What's up?
The thing is,
you cannot spend without a plan, Gwang Tae.
I didn't spend without a plan.
Do you have credit card debt?
Credit card debt?
I wouldn't know about that.
How would I, when I've never had a credit card?
Trying to get used to the new environment...
is hard on me and the baby.
I checked the fridge and there's no meat or fruit.
It's on the credit card statement but not in our kitchen?
Pung Jin, this is...
You keep quiet.
You have no idea how much she spent.
I'm sorry, Pung Jin.
I gave the meat and fruit I bought to my dad.
I married into a rich family, so I wanted to make it up to him.
I also wanted to show off...
to my sisters who used to look down on me.
Bragging about money is bragging about my husband,
and it makes you look good too.
Did I do something that bad?
Well...
Don't cry, honey. You did well.
Sa Chae!
Yes, sir.
Did you do this?
No.
The bedsheets are different.
There are flowers and even makeup.
What's this?
It's perfume.
Pung Jin, take care of your skin and wear perfume.
A great man should smell good too.
Change your underwear every day.
You...
I feel bad about what I said.
I didn't know she had shopped for you too.
Why aren't you in bed? Did you not have dinner?
I did, but I felt a bit hungry.
Be honest. Did you not eat any meat?
I was busy cooking.
Did you do all the cooking?
You had no time to eat?
No one looked out for you, gave you a bite to eat,
or even told you to eat?
There were so many people, no one could look after others.
I like cup noodles.
This isn't right.
If you want ramyeon, cook it properly.
Perfect.
I'll make them all pay.
They abused my Number One.
This is what keeps me going.
You tell them off.
Do you know how upset I was as I cooked the meat?
Okay.
A foundation?
What foundation?
I did some research as I thought you should start one.
You heard about foundations for kids and scholarships, right?
This is what you need the most.
This is what I promised before I got married.
You made a lot of money,
but you feel inferior because you don't have a title.
So what if you're rich? People don't acknowledge you.
That's why you tried so hard...
to get Ki Jin to marry a professor's daughter.
When you're a chairman with this great building,
should you call yourself a loan shark?
That's embarrassing.
Watch it.
I started researching this the day I decided to marry Ki Jin.
"Foundation Director Heo Pung Jin."
How great does that sound?
Do good and get on the news and it's all done.
This is exactly what will help you overcome your complex.
Aren't I good?
Awesome.
How did you come up with such a great idea?
Because I'm me.
Can anyone start a foundation?
I wouldn't know.
It's not that hard.
If it's about education, call the Ministry of Education.
Women's rights, go to the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family.
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism...
manages youth and sports.
That's where you go to apply.
And you have more than enough to start a foundation.
Money? Do you mean I have to spend?
Of course you do.
You get to spend and look good doing so.
I have a headache.
You don't get headaches there. You get them up here.
You can't ask him to spend his hard-earned money.
Get up, sir.
Come along. You need some air.
I do.
Did I do something wrong?
He does that whenever he has to spend anything.
We don't even eat jjajangmyeon all that often.
It's a miracle he gave you a credit card.
Wait here.
Pung Jin, are you okay?
Hello.
I'm Lee Gwang Tae. I called you.
I'm Chairman Heo Pung Jin's sister-in-law.
I'll ask you point blank.
I heard you dated my brother-in-law a long time ago.
You broke up because of your parents.
I may be out of line,
but I hoped you could get back together.
So I came to see you.
I want to know how you feel about him now.
Do you still have feelings for my brother-in-law?
I can tell already.
Why won't you pick up?
I have nothing to say.
It's always the same.
Ignoring me won't help.
If I don't have an answer by tomorrow,
I'll deal with it my way.
Bring Ttu Gi to the restaurant by noon tomorrow.
It's our day off.
I'll see you there.
Honey.
Where were you?
To the riverside where I sprinkled my son's ashes.
You were never married but you had a son?
A woman I met somewhere...
brought him over saying he's mine.
So we lived together for a few years.
He went to a stream one summer and...
Your life is full of sob stories too.
Once we lost him, things ended with that woman.
Now I don't even know where she lives.
Why did you go to the riverside?
I'm going to China tomorrow.
I wanted to take off my cast first,
but I think I should go.
Tomorrow?
I'll take you to court.
I'll take my kid and raise her properly.
You need to go to prison for this.
Do you know you're wanted?
Don't go to prison again.
Live with me.
Could you just think that you lost your chance in this life,
take a leap with your eyes closed,
and start a family with Taeng Ja?
My gosh. Taeng Ja!
Taeng Ja!
Goodness. Where...
Bong Ja, I'm sorry, but I'm off to China.
I'll earn a lot of money and raise Ttu Gi well.
Don't call me. I won't pick up.
What?
She's out of her mind.
Why are we suddenly off to China?
We'll have fun there for about a month.
But we didn't even tell Aunt Bong Ja,
Uncle Cheol Soo, or Gong Chae.
We'll call them later on.
Ttu Gi!
- The receiver cannot be reached. - What...
Please try again.
(Ttu Gi's Dad)
Gong Chae, this is Oh Bong Ja, Ttu Gi's aunt.
This is bad, but Taeng Ja's on her way to China.
She left for China with Ttu Gi.
What? China?
(Ilmiri Jjimdak)
Mr. Heo, I'm borrowing the car.
(Yesong Gosiwon)
Mister, is this where we take the bus?
Yes, the one bound for Incheon Port Terminal.
(Jjimdak restaurant at 75-3 Dongsanseo-ro, Dongsan-gu)
I can't believe it.
She had no idea she worked with him.
After all we did to track him down...
Will we be able to find him in Incheon?
We should. No, I'll make it happen.
Stop. It's Taeng Ja!
- Taeng Ja! - Ttu Gi!
You're absolutely insane.
Take Ttu Gi and wait in the car!
What do you mean he's the guy?
He's the son of that rice cake store owner.
What's the meaning of this, Gong Chae?
Why are you doing this to me?
This will only end when we take our last breaths.
Stop!
I'll handle him.
We'll go someplace quiet.
(Revolutionary Sisters)
My gosh.
I think I saw him outside the building the other day.
I'm not sure though.
What if he's really the one?
Shining under Starlight?
The units there are clean and spacious.
Could I take a look at a room?
Should a pregnant woman be doing this type of exercise?
Gwang Tae isn't pregnant.
We're here to register our marriage.
Sir!
