(Episode 65)
Why are you sitting there?
Because I want to drink tea with you.
What?
I want to become close with you.
Who says you can do that?
Do I look like a joke to you...
now that Jenny broke off her engagement?
How dare you sit there?
Please don't get me wrong.
Even if I become desperate to find a new son-in-law,
I'm still not going to accept you.
So don't get ahead of yourself.
I don't intend on rushing anything.
What?
Jenny and I just got back together.
We're going to slowly take our time to talk about our future.
I told you not to get ahead of yourself.
Jenny and I promised to do that.
You're doing great, Eun Seok.
Don't waste your energy...
and just ask a matchmaker to set you up on a blind date.
Here you go. You should slice them for her.
Okay.
Mom, Eun Seok doesn't go on blind dates.
To be more exact, I won't let him.
What?
I hope you come over to our house often...
since it's always just me and my mom.
Now that you're here, the house feels cozier...
and safe.
What's wrong with you? You just broke off your engagement.
Why does that even matter?
What matters is how I feel right now.
To be honest, it was always Eun Seok for me.
Jenny, how can you be so brazen?
How could you say that in front of me?
Who else would I say this to other than my own mom?
Don't you agree, Eun Seok?
Yes, I agree. I'll visit more often to keep you company...
and eat with you from now on.
No, don't bother.
And I'm not going to eat this,
so take it to the kitchen and eat it there.
- I like it better here. - Me too.
By the way, who slices a peach like that?
- Are you trying to reach the seed? - Pardon?
I get that you're not good at slicing fruit,
but there's almost nothing left to eat.
Do you want me to eat the seed?
I'm sorry. This is...
Here you go.
There's still some left to eat. You should have some.
You can have it yourself.
Do you have to be here? I told you to eat somewhere else.
Eun Seok.
- Have one. - Okay.
Gosh, my back.
Are you okay?
Get your hands off me. Do I look okay to you?
Jenny, isn't it time to go to the hospital?
You should call a cab.
- I'll drive you there. - No.
I'm not going to ride your filthy car.
Mom, you should eat some fruit and wait.
We still have a lot of time left.
My gosh, you guys can eat the fruit!
- Mom! - Gosh, my back.
I need to go back.
I need to go back...
so I can wrap up what I started.
Let's stay strong, Man Su.
Here you go. Did you enjoy the show?
Yes, it was fun.
By the way, the chairman asked me if I could spare some time for him.
What?
Why do you think he suddenly wants to meet me?
I'm not sure.
Something feels weird.
He even made you have dinner with Eun Ji yesterday.
What should I do if he asks about us?
What do you mean? You should just be honest.
"We've been dating for quite some time."
"This could become a serious relationship."
"We go for walks every night."
"And Dong Joo seems to like me very much."
- Be confident and tell him that. - That's Mr. Lee's voice.
Can I really tell him that?
Of course. That's how Eun Ji will...
Mr. Lee.
Here's your car key.
Thank you.
I didn't make any mistakes yesterday, did I?
Of course, you made mistakes.
You made a lot of mistakes.
What?
It was nice to see your honest side.
What...
What did I do?
I can totally understand.
I've already seen my brother make a lot of mistakes...
after he got drunk.
I know...
how you really feel, so it's okay.
All I remember was drinking a glass of wine and falling asleep.
But you're telling me that I made a mistake?
I was sleeping at home when I woke up.
That's what everyone says.
"I woke up sleeping at home. I was too drunk to remember."
Anyway, I'm really okay.
What... What did I do?
It was actually nice to see you like that.
It was very humane.
"Humane"?
What happened?
Why do you want to know?
He wants to know what happened.
You should tell him what happened so that he doesn't worry.
Why do you even care...
whether he's worried or not?
What exactly did I do?
Tell me.
Let's just say got drunk and mustered up your courage.
You were really cute.
What do you think you're doing?
Anyway, I was happy because it felt like we became close.
Oh, right. My grandpa's going out of town this weekend,
and I heard he's planning to take you with him.
You should free your schedule.
Song Ah thinks she can have Mr. Lee to herself...
every time she comes to work.
Pretty soon, she won't be able to think that way.
Song Ah.
Don't be bothered by what she said. I didn't make any mistakes.
Someone might think something actually happened.
No, that's not true. It's a misunderstanding.
I can't drink at all, so I normally never drink.
But yesterday...
Okay, I understand. You should get back to work.
I'll be in the Design Room after I visit the chairman.
Okay, I'll call you.
Let's eat dinner together.
Okay.
Would you like to eat at my mom's restaurant?
Oh, right. She opened a restaurant, didn't she?
Yes, let's eat there.
Okay.
Hello, I'm calling from street number 30 in Hannam-dong,
Please send a cab to my house.
Okay, we'll give you a call soon.
I called a cab, so Eun Seok can go now.
I need to go somewhere with Jenny in the afternoon.
So I'm still going to follow you and Jenny to the hospital.
What?
Your rehabilitation treatment takes about two hours.
I'm going to go to his office to sign a contract...
and drop by the Design Team to say hello.
What contract? Who says you can sign a contract?
I told you already that I'll be signing my contracts now.
You shouldn't get involved.
What?
The cab's here. Let's go.
Hello?
We can't seem to find a cab near your house.
I'm sorry, ma'am.
What are you talking about?
Can't we just wait?
The nearest cab is 40 minutes away from your house.
Will you wait 40 minutes?
40 minutes?
- Would you like to wait? - Forget it.
Just let him drive you there. Stop being so stubborn.
I'll drive you to the hospital.
Gosh, why isn't anything going my way?
Why are you sitting there?
I like it better here. Plus, you get to have a lot of space.
- Fasten your seatbelt, Jenny. - Okay.
They're unbelievable.
I tried so hard to split them apart,
but they eventually got back together.
I wonder if they're really meant to be.
- Are you good now? - Thanks.
I'll start driving now.
Whatever.
Let's go!
- Ms. Jin. - Yes, Mr. Kim.
Can you give me last week's sales report?
Yes, sir.
Here you go.
Honey, you're working so hard.
Do you know how sexy that is?
Listen to me, Ms. Jin.
Don't make thoughtless comments to your boss during working hours.
My gosh, you're even correcting me now?
This really isn't like you, Young Man.
If people change all of a sudden, it means they're going to die.
Then I guess you never really knew the real me.
This is who I really am.
What's gotten into you, honey?
I'm a candidate to be the next chairman of J Group.
So you should start looking for another part-time job.
You know you're not good enough...
to get hired as an official employee, right?
Hey, who says you can fire me like this?
I worked here as an official part-timer.
I've been working here for over two weeks.
I never forced you to work here.
I cleaned the office, made coffee for you,
and increased your sales by being good with the customers.
Did you forget who did all that?
You enjoyed your fun, and now you're telling me...
that you can't officially employ me?
What are you talking about? I didn't enjoy anything.
If you wrongfully fire me like that,
I might just humiliate your company.
What? "Humiliate"?
Whatever the case, I'm not going to let you fire me.
So just get ready to hire me as an official employee.
Look at her giving her boss orders when she's just a part-timer.
She's been working for a long time now.
My mom will kill me if she finds out.
(Mom)
- Hey, Mom. - Where are you?
I'm working really hard at the store.
I see. I'm in front of your store.
What? Really?
What made you come all of a sudden?
It's not sudden. I was actually planning to come here today.
Your sales increased, so I thought I'd drop by to encourage you...
and say hello to the part-timer.
Oh, okay. You can take your time.
Ae Young, we're in trouble.
Why?
My mom's on her way here. Hurry up and hide.
Why do I need to hide?
Just hurry up and hide. Come here.
What's wrong with you?
My gosh, what's with you?
Do you seriously not know why I'm being like this?
My mom hates you.
She's always worried that I might get back together with you.
Make sure you stay here. Don't come outside, okay?
Okay.
Mom, you're here.
Hey, were you working hard?
Yes, of course. I feel like I've become a workaholic these days.
Really?
Being a workaholic is the best.
I know, right?
Every morning, I wonder what I can do to work harder...
and how I can sacrifice myself for the good of our company.
That's all I think of these days.
You're incredible.
By the way, where's the competent part-timer?
She went outside for a while.
She went outside?
Really? I should say hello to her since I'm here.
Mom, she went really far away.
So what?
I'll spend time with you and wait until she comes.
I wanted to praise her for her good work,
so I brought her a bonus.
Really?
If she's that competent, you should officially hire her.
You can't keep her as a part-timer forever.
It'll ruin our company's image.
Okay, I'll hire her when the time is right.
Okay, then.
It's a little hot. Do you have a cold drink?
- I'll get it for you. - No, it's okay.
You already work so hard. I'll go get it myself.
My gosh, where should I hide?
Mom, wait.
What?
What's wrong with him?
Just hurry up.
I told you that I'll get it myself.
You came all the way here. The least I can do is give you some water.
- Here you go. - My gosh.
I feel like you've become very courteous and mature these days.
My goodness, you always make me so proud.
Gosh, I should be mature considering my age.
I always upset you by getting a divorce and being so immature.
So from now on, I'm only going to do stuff to make you happy.
Okay, great. I'm so proud of you.
My goodness.
What's this?
- Oh, that's... Well... - Why is there a luggage bag here?
No! My goodness.
What... What is this?
Oh, my gosh.
Who does this belong to?
It's... It's not mine, okay?
- Mom, let's talk outside. - My gosh, will you stay still?
Whose is this?
What is all this?
Well...
That must be the luggage bag that someone forgot to take.
It belongs to one of the customers.
What? A customer?
Are you sure about that?
Of course. Why else would there be a luggage bag here?
Don't tell me Ae Young frequently visits you here.
Mom, why would I even meet that cunning fox?
"Cunning fox"?
Listen to me. Don't forget how she embarrassed you.
You should never meet her again.
Don't ever let her near you again, okay?
Okay. I will never meet her even if you suddenly...
change your mind and tell me to.
- Let's go outside now. Come on. - My gosh.
(Handle with care)
What did he say about me?
Mom, let's go eat cold noodles.
Why do you want to eat cold noodles?
Didn't you eat lunch?
I did eat lunch, but I'm getting a little hungry.
There's a really nice cold noodle restaurant nearby.
Let's go.
Hey, what about the part-timer?
You can always meet her next time.
Let's go.
Okay, I'll go. What's with you?
Come on.
"Cunning fox"?
He'll never meet me even if his mom asks him to?
Let's wait and see.
I'm going to become Young Man's wife no matter what.
You just wait.
Song Ah.
Can I be honest with you today?
Of course, sir.
Eun Ji's head over heels for Dong Joo these days.
I knew she liked him,
but she recently cried in front of me...
and told me that she can't live without him.
She was very sad about it.
And it really broke my heart.
What do I need to do...
to make Mr. Lee mine?
You and I both know that Dong Joo is a very shrewd and clever guy.
Yes.
I tried so hard to find him and make him work here,
and I guess Eun Ji was smart enough to recognize what a great guy he is.
I was planning to have him achieve big things...
at our company.
But now that Eun Ji likes him, I've changed my mind.
How exactly?
After I found out that Eun Ji likes him,
I figured it wouldn't be a bad idea...
to make him become our family.
Then...
are you saying you're going to help Eun Ji get married to Dong Joo?
Yes, that's right.
You may be for the marriage,
but do you think your daughter will think the same way?
She'll eventually give in.
He may be a widower who has a kid,
but it's not like he wanted his wife to die.
He's much better than a bunch of fools...
who don't even know what they're doing.
Eun Ji tends to stay stubborn until she gets what she wants.
I'm thinking about supporting her...
even if everyone else in the family disapproves.
Song Ah, you should get back together with Young Man.
I won't...
ever get back together with Young Man.
You're still young. You never know what might happen.
Young Man's not a bad guy.
And he's doing really well these days.
If you get back together with Young Man,
and Dong Joo eventually gets married to Eun Ji,
our family will become a perfect family.
No, sir.
Eun Ji can't marry Dong Joo.
That can't ever happen.
I heard you're close with Dong Joo since you're neighbors.
Yes, sir.
Dong Joo and I are...
Dong Joo will always be an office worker...
regardless of how hard he tries.
But if he becomes my grandson-in-law,
he could get promoted to a very important position,
and his life will change completely.
It'll be a great opportunity for him.
It's better than marrying someone who's ordinary.
Well, yes. But...
From now on, you should tell him...
what a great girl Eun Ji is every time you see him at home.
And tell him how I feel about him.
Sir, Dong Joo and I are...
You should go now. I need to attend a meeting.
Okay, sir.
Please do me a favor, Song Ah.
I'm sorry, Song Ah.
I can't bear to see my granddaughter cry.
(Dong Joo)
Hey, Dong Joo.
Did you finish your talk with the chairman?
You're going to come back to the office, right?
Yes.
I...
Song Ah, what's wrong? Did something happen?
No, it's nothing.
Are you crying?
Where are you? I'll go to where you are.
No, it's okay. I'll see you later.
I wonder what happened.
(Strategy Team Manager, Lee Dong Joo)
Dong Joo will always be an office worker...
regardless of how hard he tries.
But if he becomes my grandson-in-law,
he could get promoted to a very important position,
and his life will change completely.
It'll be a great opportunity for him.
It's better than marrying someone who's ordinary.
The chairman's right.
If Dong Joo marries Eun Ji,
his life will change completely.
The only thing I can give him is...
After we became neighbors,
my life suddenly got filled with happiness.
And that wasn't the same happiness I get from my kid.
It's nice to see you like this.
And when I think of you, I forget about the heat.
Life becomes a lot less weary.
We're too old to be seeking...
nothing but happiness.
Yes.
The chairman's right.
Song Ah.
Dong...
Dong Joo.
How did you know I was here?
You come here every time you drop by the office.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
I met the chairman.
What did he say?
He told me he wants you to be his grandson-in-law.
What's that supposed to mean?
He wants whom?
The chairman wants you to be his grandson-in-law.
I told you...
to tell him that we're dating and that I like you a lot.
I told you to draw a line.
I was going to.
But he stopped me from talking every time I tried to tell him.
It seemed like he already knew everything.
Don't worry, Song Ah.
I'll make myself clear to the chairman.
Dong Joo.
Yes?
Don't do that.
What?
Don't do that.
What do you mean?
If you choose Eun Ji,
it'll be like winning the jackpot.
Eun Ji and the chairman will give you things...
that are way beyond my imagination.
So you should think about it before you talk to him.
What?
What exactly is a jackpot to you?
All we ever do...
is talk about how excited and happy we've become...
and count how many days...
it has been...
since we started dating.
We've both been through so much.
We'll surely be able to get by...
even if we decide to end this now.
Being able to marry someone who's rich...
isn't a common opportunity.
And that opportunity is right in front of you right now.
You can't just give up on that because of me.
So what's your point?
You're going to give up on me and let Eun Ji have me?
I tried to measure who's better, and I found out...
that I lack so much.
I'm...
no match for Eun Ji.
I'm so insignificant and lacking.
I have no reason to cling onto you, and I'm not confident either.
So you're just going to give up on me?
I'm doing this so you can have a better future.
I don't want you to regret choosing me in the future...
and resent me for not letting you go.
Okay, fine.
What?
If you insist,
I'll think about that jackpot you keep talking to me about.
If you don't care about how much I like you...
and can easily let someone else take me away from you like this,
I don't want to be with you either.
- Dong Joo. - Fine.
Just do whatever you want.
(Shady Mom-in-law)
I should put up with everything that President Wang says to me...
so I can hurry up and marry Jenny.
Eun Seok, are you also trying...
to help Jenny keep a connection with this woman?
Just do whatever you want!
Then how did Eun Ji manage to take a photo with you?
Why did you bring her home and lie next to her?
Man Su was the one who caused all this.
I shouldn't have let him live. I can't believe he survived.
I did it.
