(Episode 2)
Your father must have dementia.
Why else would he...
just leave his wife and children and home?
None of this makes sense.
We called the police. We'll reach him soon.
Don't worry too much.
Yes, Mum. Nowadays, there are surveillance cameras everywhere,
and science is so advanced, so we'll find him right away.
Has he been acting strange recently,
or did he say anything weird?
He didn't do or say anything out of the ordinary.
Where's Yun Shil?
He might have told her something.
She went to the police station...
and will see her husband before coming to work.
I'll ask her when I see her.
She's a new worker who recently joined the shop.
All he cared about until now was his home and the tailor shop.
Where would he go?
What kind of absurd situation is this?
Do you think...
some bad people abducted him?
He left us a letter.
I don't think he was abducted. He'll be fine.
What if it's something else?
Do you think he's having an affair?
You remember Mr Kim from that restaurant?
Was it last spring or summer?
He fell for a girl from the karaoke room on the crossroads.
He spend a month with her in Vietnam or the Philippines.
Careful.
Watch what you say.
How dare you say that about your father.
All that soup I ate to recover from having you was a waste.
Don't take it out on me.
I'm just as worried.
Shut your mouth.
Mr Park.
Human Resources just posted a notice.
You'll be...
transferred to the Anseong Distribution Centre.
Okay, I'll come in.
Something came up at work, so I have to go.
Go on, then. I shouldn't have kept you for so long.
What's wrong with your wife?
Why isn't she here when her father-in-law's missing?
She isn't feeling too well.
I'll tell her to call you.
We haven't seen her since she brought a cake...
at the end of last year and only stayed for 10 minutes.
She doesn't attend family events...
or call to check on our parents.
You should...
keep her in line.
You don't deserve to complain.
You said something came up. Go back to work.
Bye, then.
I want to lie down.
- I'll help you. - I'll come by later.
You should go.
Bye, Uncle Dong Jin.
Oh, dear.
Don't take what I said to heart.
Mum and Dad never say anything, but I think they're upset.
They're upset that you live with your wife's family.
It hurts even more when your wife never calls.
They must feel like your in-laws look down on them.
I know. Sorry.
I'll call you if we hear from the police. Don't worry.
He just needs a break. I'm sure he'll be fine.
I have to go.
Bye.
If he were just a little less smarter,
he could've inherited the store.
My father's son is just too smart for anyone's good.
Take me to work.
Yes, Sir.
Meet Meesa Apparel's Chief Director Min Hyo Sang.
Is that whom you went to meet yesterday?
Yes. Tell him that Hong Gi Pyo's in a cell...
and if he doesn't get me out today, I'll tell everything.
- What will you tell? - That's none of your business.
I made a rash business move because I wanted us to do well.
I just need Mr Min to help me out.
Don't forget. It's Chief Director Min Hyo Sang.
Chief Director Min Hyo Sang?
What's this?
(Personnel Transfer)
- What happened? - Unbelievable.
It's a demotion.
- They basically want him to quit. - How absurd.
Congratulations on your promotion.
You're sending me to a warehouse.
You call that a promotion?
You can either be a CEO here with a backbreaking workload,
or be a CEO in the countryside where the water and air is cleaner.
You're still a CEO in title.
I owe you for putting up with...
your cranky old father-in-law.
I'm sending you away to recuperate.
I spent a few months there last year when my father...
found out about my womanising ways.
It's not as bad as you think.
It's a small team. It's more like a family.
Keep your mouth shut.
Must you do this?
Did you think the company would be yours because...
my late husband favoured you?
This is me being nice. Think of it that way.
If you don't like it, you can quit.
This company belongs to the staff and shareholders.
You have no right to tell me to quit.
Are you lecturing me?
I expect you to...
take responsibility for this.
Wait and see what happens.
He thinks he has the last word.
We'll see how long he manages to stay so confident.
Hello. I'm here to see Chief Director Min Hyo Sang.
Is the CEO expecting you?
He said Chief Director, not CEO.
It's Chief Director Min Hyo Sang.
He was promoted to CEO yesterday.
I see.
- Did you make an appointment? - No.
Then you can't see him.
Tell him that Hong Gi Pyo sent me.
I have an urgent message for him.
It's important.
Just a moment.
It's the information desk. Someone's here for the CEO...
Okay. Thank you.
He's in a meeting.
It's really urgent. Can't you help?
Sorry.
I really have to get inside. Sorry. I'm really sorry.
Wait for me! Wait for me!
Sorry. Sorry.
(Lee Dong Jin, Deputy CEO)
(Personnel Transfer)
(CEO's office)
CEO's office.
Do you have something to say?
You were ordered to empty the office before noon today.
I understand.
(Lee Dong Jin, Deputy CEO)
What...
Who are you?
The man in the tuxedo. Which way did he go?
It's the man from yesterday.
- You know me, don't you? - How would I know you?
Don't you remember me?
You stepped on my wedding dress outside this building yesterday.
We met last night, as well.
Watch where you're going.
Wait.
At the crossroad outside the tailor shop,
you were drunk and...
Who are you?
What are you doing in my office?
- Do you really not recognise me? - I don't. I said I don't.
Then do you know Hong Gi Pyo?
No.
Think carefully instead of just saying you don't know.
You know Hong Gi Pyo.
- Why do you pretend like you don't? - My gosh.
Why should I know that person?
He's at a police station. I need you to come with me.
Ms Kim.
- What are you doing? - Pardon?
- You can't let a peddler in here. - Sorry, Sir.
I left for a few minutes to see the manager.
- You must leave. - I'm not a peddler.
- Please let me explain. - Get out of here.
- Hong Gi Pyo is... - I'm sorry, Sir.
- Listen to me. - Hurry up and take her out of here.
- I'm not a peddler. - I'm sorry, Sir.
Wait. Let me go.
Sir. Hong Gi Pyo...
Sir, let me finish. I can explain.
I won't take too long of your time.
What a horrible morning this is.
- Wait. - Get out.
I won't stay too long. I really have to talk to him.
What's the fuss about?
If Chief Director... I mean, if CEO Min Hyo Sang won't help,
Hong Gi Pyo will be prosecuted.
I need his help.
Please.
Do you know her?
No. I don't.
Then how does she know your name?
(Closed for the day)
"Closed for the day"?
What's going on?
Here you are.
Why is the store closed?
Is Mr Lee sick?
He's not sick. He left home.
What?
(Sun Nyeo Chicken)
It'll be all over the news tonight.
Mr Bae from the market's fried chicken store...
died while frying chicken in the mid-summer heat.
There you go again.
Do you think I'm kidding? I'm drenched in sweat.
Salt is dripping from all over my body.
That's so sexy.
I know it's hard work, so stop grumbling.
- You can have eel for dinner. - Stop it. It's embarrassing.
I'm going to drain myself.
She's going to drain herself.
Can't she just say that she's going to the toilet?
No woman shouldn't talk like that.
(Leech)
It's the leech again.
I should change my number.
- You ignored my call. - My goodness.
I guess something's up.
How did you find me?
When I was in New York, my nickname was Manhattan Hound.
Once I bite, I never let go.
Are you saying you followed me?
No. I remembered the number on the truck and called the farm.
The owner of the farm gave me this address.
So what are you doing here?
What do you think?
You owe me money for guitar repairs.
I must look young for my age. You're acting like we're equals.
How old are you?
I look young, too, but I'm old enough.
- Show me your ID. - What?
I forgot my wallet. Forget it.
Pay me for the guitar repairs.
I feel sorry for you working in the summer heat.
My goodness. Fine.
It's hard to make a living, right?
Here. Take this and go on your way.
My goodness.
Buy yourself some ice cream.
I really don't like your attitude.
Let me tell you about this guitar.
It was handmade by the greatest craftsman of electric guitars.
He made this especially for me, Sung Jun.
I'd heard that a man was treating my husband like a debtor...
and wondered what that man looked like.
Are you the one?
What did you say?
My husband said he never touched your guitar.
Why do you want him to pay for repairs?
Are you his wife?
You don't know what you're talking about.
Your husband hit me, and I flew across the floor.
That's when my guitar split into two.
Do you see this? It's a mess!
Did you throw him across the floor?
No. I just flexed my arm like this.
He fell of his own accord and lied down.
You're a blackmailer.
A blackmailer? That's a bit too harsh.
Are you after insurance payouts, then?
Let's not drag this out.
Fix this, and I'll get out of your hair.
Okay.
I'll get it fixed. Wait right here.
Don't go back on the deal.
Shall I come with you?
You're not going anywhere.
Watch the store.
Okay.
What now?
What's your problem now?
You look so normal,
but you can barely breathe when your wife's around.
What a waste of your looks.
Did you contribute to my looks or what?
My goodness.
Hello, it's Bae Sam Do.
How are you?
I'm not well at all. A disaster has befallen us.
Why? What's wrong?
My husband left a letter and disappeared.
- What? - He left home.
Mr Lee left home?
What for?
He said he wanted to spend some time alone.
The letter's just full of nonsense.
Did he write anything else?
He said he couldn't bear to sell the store himself.
He wants us to do discuss the matters and sell it for him.
Did he say anything to you?
You were supposed to meet up yesterday, weren't you?
We didn't. Something urgent came up,
so I called to tell him that I'd visit him some other time.
Ms Choi, I'll take the next train to Seoul.
Let's talk in person.
Sure.
Bye. See you soon.
Where would he go without a word?
He'd never do that.
What do you think you're doing?
I could eat a truckload of your chicken and it would cost...
less than a quarter of the repair fee.
Here you go. The guitar that was previously split in two...
is now whole and in working order.
What have you done to my guitar?
What?
This is...
- How did you fix it? - The cobbler glued it together.
He's called MacGyver for a reason.
A cobbler?
Do you mean a man who fixes shoes fixed this?
What's wrong? It's fixed, isn't it?
Yes, but what did he fix it with?
The glue used to stick soles to shoes. It really sticky.
The glue used to stick rubber soles?
I played this for over 20 years. It's like my baby.
You ruined it. What will you do about this?
I want compensation!
There's nothing wrong with it. It plays perfectly fine.
It does not, you ignorant witch!
You're right!
- Honey. - I'm ignorant.
I'm ignorant.
I didn't even finish high school.
- But why do you care? - I don't care.
That's none of my business.
If it's none of your business, don't say I'm ignorant.
- They met each other's match. - Don't you point at me.
(Train to Seoul)
I just fried it. It'll be nice and crunchy.
Here. Try a piece.
I'm sorry.
You're too talented a garment cutter to be doing this.
You should be sewing clothes, not frying chicken.
I lost all my savings on two failed tailor stores.
My wife begged her brother...
for a loan to open this store.
I'm in no position to be picky.
Come to Seoul and work with me.
You won't become rich, but you won't starve.
Sir.
He's only just settling down.
Please don't give him ideas.
I beg of you.
- Please. - Stop it. Get up.
There are cheap and nice suits in department stores and outlets.
No one goes to a tailor to get a suit fitted these days.
- Times have changed. - Don't talk to him like that.
- Get up right now. - Let go.
I'll say what I said to him.
If he ever goes back into the tailoring business,
I will divorce him.
I mean it, Sir!
I get what you mean, so calm down.
I shouldn't have come here.
Old age tends to cloud one's judgement.
I apologise.
I shouldn't have let him leave like that.
My goodness.
You...
How did you find me?
I told you what my nickname is.
My gosh.
Do you mean he paid your next month's salary in advance?
Yes. I told him that payday was over two weeks away...
and asked why he was paying me in advance.
And?
He said it was in case he forgot.
He planned all this ahead, then.
- There's another thing. - Yes?
You know the orphans he supports, right?
Every year, he makes everyone a suit for when...
they graduate from high school.
Did he make them ahead?
Yes. All three of them.
If he made three whole suits for the orphans,
it means he planned to leave home at least a month ago.
The old man...
deceived me on purpose.
He did this to mess with me.
- My blood pressure's rising again. - Mum.
Get her medicine from the desk drawer.
- My goodness. - Okay.
- Hurry. - Gosh, my head aches.
(Short-term card loan)
(Type your PIN)
(100 dollars)
What are you doing?
It's Ji Yun's birthday.
I borrowed some cash.
- To get a present? - Yes.
I work part-time seven days a week,
but there's nothing left after I pay off my student loan, rent,
and send Mum some money.
Hang in there. It'll get better once you find a job.
Do you know what you'll buy Ji Yun?
Not yet. It's her first birthday since she became an announcer.
I can't get her what I got her when she was jobless.
Don't worry too much.
She knows your situation. I'm sure she'll understand.
That's true. When I got her an expensive wallet last year,
she scolded me and made me get a refund.
See?
Sorry.
Hello, Mother.
I was at the police station to see Gi Pyo.
Yes. I think he has a plan.
To Anseong?
Okay.
Yes. Bye.
Do you have to go to Anseong?
She wants me to come by this weekend.
I guess she wants to talk.
I don't want to say this.
It's not too late. An incomplete ceremony...
I have to get to work.
Wish Ji Yun a happy birthday from me.
She's too nice.
Sir.
You've been through a lot. Let's sit and talk.
I need your help.
I did as you said.
Meesa Apparel sued me for fraud, libel and business obstruction.
They sued me for everything they could.
We both know what's going on. Why worry?
I'll make sure the company goes for the minimum sentence.
What? The minimum sentence?
Let's say you did this alone.
That way, it won't get too complicated.
If you cooperate, I'll give you an outlet.
But I don't know how long I'll have to rot in prison for.
Don't worry about that. Lawyer Choi is an expert.
You'll be able to have a proper wedding within a year.
Just spend a few months behind bars,
and you can own a store for the rest of your life.
Come on, Gi Pyo. Bravo.
This is a windfall.
I could do all that for you.
Thanks for everything.
I'm done. Call my driver.
Yes, Sir.
Dong Jin.
I just got back from a business trip.
I just found out.
You'll be so bored.
You lost the only friend you can have coffee with...
or eat at the cafeteria with.
I'm so sorry.
I'm really sorry.
I'll apologise instead of my mum and brother.
You don't have to.
Now that I'm leaving, you should try to make some friends.
- Where's my car? - They said they'll send a car over.
Are you Mr Lee Dong Jin?
Hello. I'm Na Gi Seok, and I'll be working with you.
Right.
Please get in.
Sorry, Sir.
I work for the new CEO now.
How could they do this?
Wait here, Dong Jin.
Forget it. I'll be fine.
Get back to work, Ms Kim.
You don't deserve this, Sir.
We're off, Sir.
Starting today, I'll drive you to and from work, Sir.
The fact that our new CEO was high up at the head office...
got us all excited and enthusiastic.
Did you say you're Mr Na?
Yes, Sir. My name is Na Gi Seok.
Let's go in silence.
Sure. Pardon?
Yes, Sir.
Did you have to do this, Mum?
Don't talk like that in front of the staff.
You took his position and his car, too?
How could you treat him so badly?
You don't know what you're talking about.
You're scary and cruel.
I'm done with being your daughter. Scratch me from the registry.
That's enough.
He's a prideful man. He must feel so crushed.
I feel so sorry for him.
Poor Dong Jin...
Stop it.
People are watching. Stop crying.
You're cruel and stingy!
Stop it, you brat.
Who's calling so early in the day?
Hello? Yes, it's me.
What is it, Ms Kim?
Anseong Distribution Centre?
Have they lost their minds?
Let's welcome Mr Lee.
Welcome, Sir.
A short speech would be nice, Sir.
I'm pleased to meet you all.
You can all get back to work now.
Clap.
Everything's computerised, so there isn't much to do.
As long as we keep the system going...
and make sure the staff don't tamper with the materials,
nothing much goes wrong here.
I'm practically a warehouse guard.
Pardon?
(Lee Dong Jin, CEO)
If you need something or want something, call me.
I will. You can leave.
The wreaths...
- Will you stop it? - Stop what?
Stop following me around.
I told you.
I will stick close to you until you fix my guitar.
Talk to my wife. You'll get nothing from me.
She gives me five dollars a day. That's it.
I can't get through to your wife.
It's impossible.
I'm not at all surprised.
What should I do with you?
How much do you want for the guitar?
Okay.
I'm sick and tired of you.
I'll give it to you.
Take this and leave.
What?
It's not 200 dollars?
2,000 dollars?
Are you trying to turn your whole life around?
How many times must I tell you? This isn't just any guitar.
It's a handmade work of art made especially for me...
in New Jersey by a famous electric guitar expert.
Even if it's all that, how can it cost that much to fix?
You're just a thief who doesn't have a weapon.
I have to send it back to New Jersey and have the neck replaced.
It's a huge deal!
Let's see the guitar, then.
I want to see for myself if it's a work of art.
This is unbelievable.
You wouldn't be able to tell.
I'll do my best to explain, but you still wouldn't understand.
No, you need to stop. Stop right there!
Hey, you! Stop right there!
How are you?
It's Yun Shil from Wolgyesu Tailor Shop.
Yes.
I called to ask if you met Mr Lee today.
No, nothing's wrong.
He hasn't come back from his walk.
I see.
Okay. Thank you.
Have a seat.
Lying alone in my room made me feel worse,
so I came to get some fresh air.
I have to get back to my store.
Take care of my mum for me.
I will. Don't worry.
Bye.
I'll make you a cold cereal smoothie.
What are you crying about?
For the last 50 years, the first thing he did every day...
was sharpen his scissors on a grindstone.
Where could he be instead of here, sharpening his scissors?
He just needs a few days to clear his head.
He cares too much about you to stay away for too long.
- Do you think so? - I know so.
I saw the way he looked at you and treated you.
I know how he feels.
Drink this.
What happened to your husband?
I was too preoccupied to ask until now.
Is he still at the police station?
Yes.
He must be in big trouble, then.
Ms Choi.
Look who's here. It's Mr Bae.
I was so worried, so I came straight over.
Thanks for coming this far.
I should be here. He treated me like a son.
Have you heard from him?
No.
This is terrible.
She works at our workshop.
Hello. I'm Na Yun Shil.
We met before.
I saw you on a motorcycle in a wedding dress.
Oh, right. I'm so sorry about yesterday.
You should be...
apologising to me, don't you think?
How in the world did you find me here?
This is my lucky day.
Pay me for the gig.
I sang at your wedding, but you and your husband disappeared.
Oh, gosh. I'm so sorry.
- How much do I owe you? - She isn't paying you anything.
You ruined a perfect wedding.
What do you mean I ruined it?
You sang a song with terrible lyrics.
How dare you sing something like that at a wedding.
It was like you were praying for a disaster.
You don't seem to know much about art, Ma'am.
Don't judge a song by the lyrics.
- The theme of the song... - You sang a horrid song...
and ruined her wedding.
- She will sue you for damages. - What?
- You can pay when you leave. - Okay.
I could've gotten an autograph if the detectives didn't barge in.
What a pity.
I'm in no situation to be picky.
I lost all my savings to settle out of court...
when I did nothing wrong.
All I have is my guitar.
I'll do anything but rob people to make a living.
I'm having a horrid day as it is, and the weather isn't helping.
(I'm sorry for surprising you. I'll be back soon.)
Where's the man who looks like a greasy scarecrow?
I talked to him and sent him away.
He looked pretty normal,
but he should know better.
We should be suing him. Why does he want compensation?
I'll deal with him, so you don't have to worry.
Did you read the letter?
- Yes. - Why do you think...
he left home?
He wouldn't do this unless he's demented.
He actually came to Daejeon to see me a while ago.
- Did he? - He asked me...
if I could take over his store.
- And? - My wife was so against it,
so he took it back.
He then returned to Seoul.
He didn't tell me anything about that.
I think...
he's so upset that there's no one to take over from him.
Maybe that's why he left home.
The tailor shop is falling apart.
Why is he clinging onto it so desperately?
It's hard for me to watch him like that.
Is there something wrong?
I forgot Mr Lee told me to give you the suit.
Here. How do you like it?
It's nice, but I'm not sure if can take it.
It's not just you. He gifts other people a lot.
Don't feel pressured.
Where is he? I want to say thank you.
- He's not here right now. - Did he go somewhere?
No.
He ran away from home.
What? Why would he do that?
I don't know the reason.
It's me, Mum. Anything from grandpa?
What about the police? Did you hear from them?
I can't focus on work.
Where did he go?
What got into him?
Oh, gosh.
Did you say he ran away from home?
I'll call you back.
Wait.
- Since when have you been there? - It's been a while.
- What were you doing in there? - I was on the phone with a friend.
Why did your grandfather run away from home?
Did he have a fight with your grandmother?
It's not like that.
Why won't you tell me?
- My gosh. - Tell me why.
Come on, tell me.
You shouldn't have come to where I work without calling.
I wanted to have dinner with you. It's your birthday today.
It's not a big deal.
That's a new suit.
It was a gift from the owner of the tailor shop where Yun Shil works at.
He told me to wear it to job interviews.
- Did you go to an interview today? - No.
I wanted to wear it for your birthday.
Let's go to a fancy place tonight.
I don't feel like eating.
Why? Did you have a bad day at the office?
It's not like that.
I'm hungry. Let's go.
No, I can't.
I have to fill in for a live broadcast.
I'm sorry. I don't think I'll be able to make it tonight.
- Then I'll wait until you're done. - What about your part-time job?
I asked my boss for a day off.
It'll take long. I don't know when I'll finish.
You said it's a live broadcast.
Well,
there's a meeting afterwards.
They appointed me as the host of the Thanksgiving special.
I have to meet with the writers and the directors.
Thanksgiving is months from now.
You don't know anything about broadcasting.
I asked because I didn't know. Why are you getting upset?
I'm tired, and you keep asking me these silly questions.
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
I'll come by your place tonight.
We have to at least blow out the candles. I'll bring cake.
I told you. I don't know when I'll be done.
I think I'll be late tonight.
Let's do it next time.
Okay. Let's do that.
I'm sorry.
I have to go.
Hello?
I just happen to have some time. I'm taking a day off from work.
Breaking news, Mum.
I thought you didn't want to be in this family any more.
Dong Jin's father ran away from home after leaving behind just a letter.
- Is that true? - Yes.
The police dropped by, and Dong Jin's mother passed out.
Apparently, it was a total chaos.
I didn't say it was chaotic.
Maybe it wasn't chaotic.
I exaggerated a bit out of shock.
Anyway, it's a really big deal.
- What are they going to do? - This is why...
she doesn't have friends.
Da Jeong.
Does my sister know that your grandfather left home?
Don't you have any pride?
You come all the way down here just because they transfer you?
I didn't think of you as such a timid man.
Is that all you have to say?
I wouldn't have married you if I knew you were such a lousy man.
I thought you were capable and ambitious.
I didn't know you would lose control over everything...
as soon as my father passed.
So what?
What are you going to do now that you know?
I want a divorce.
- What? - If you don't...
take back control over the company by this year, I won't forgive you.
Forgive me? Why do I need your forgiveness?
You disappointed me.
I can't live like this. I don't let other people take away my things.
You let me down. No, you drove me to despair.
Do you think...
I work hard just so I won't let you down?
I respected your father as a CEO.
Meesa Apparel was important to me.
I didn't think of it as game of who takes over.
How meaningful.
Then why are you cooped up in this countryside?
Let's stop this.
Go shopping like you always do.
I'll take care of my business, so leave me be.
I'm not just saying this.
If you don't want a divorce,
do whatever it takes to take over control of the company.
Do you have any idea how I feel?
My father left home.
They sent me away to nowhere.
I feel like I'm living a nightmare.
But you show up here...
just to tell me this?
How can a wife say such things to a husband?
This happened because of you. I'm also the victim here.
Don't expect any comforting words.
By the way, Father running away is a complete joke.
A joke?
Is that something a daughter-in-law should say?
He's not some teenager.
Does it make sense to run away from home at his age?
Do you understand him?
I can't believe you.
I went to Meesa Apparel in the morning, but...
I know.
The chief director came by this afternoon.
He was here?
- Then do you know Hong Gi Pyo? - No.
Think carefully instead of just saying you don't know.
- You know Hong Gi Pyo. - My gosh.
Why should I know that person?
That's weird.
What is?
It's nothing.
I talked with the chief director, and it seems like...
we have to be separate...
just for a year.
What are you talking about?
I'm going to have to be in jail for at least a year.
Can you wait for me until I get out?
Okay, sure. Yes, Sir.
They ran out of the ingredients for dinner service.
Hurry, it's an emergency.
Yes, Sir.
This is the address.
It'll only take 20 minutes.
- Off you go then. - Okay.
Gosh, you look so tired.
Have you eaten?
I made biji jjigae. Have some before you go to bed.
I'm fine.
I feel tired. I think I'll get some rest.
It'll only be a year. I'll make you worth the wait.
You trust me, right?
What is he thinking?
Hey, it's me, Dong Jin.
I have an urgent matter to discuss.
It's about the company.
- Over here, please. - Okay.
- Put it there, please. - Okay.
- You must be thirsty. - Thank you.
I'm sorry I kept you waiting.
Something came up, but it's all good now.
That's great.
Okay, good work.
Thank you. I'll be going now.
What about wine?
I'm sorry. I forgot to put it on silent.
Not at all. Go ahead.
I don't have to take this.
(My Tae Yang)
Happy Birthday.
How did you know? I didn't tell you.
I don't need you to tell me.
There are many ways to find out.
- You sound like a playboy. - You're right.
I am a playboy.
But strangely enough, I don't want to play around this time.
It's making me nervous.
Here. I got this for you.
Oh, my goodness.
Do you like it?
Thank you.
Why didn't you answer my calls?
Where have you been all day?
I went to Seoul.
Why did you go there?
Mr Lee ran way from home.
Mr Lee ran away? Why?
I don't know. He left only a letter and disappeared somewhere.
- He must be senile, that old man. - Don't you talk about him that way.
He is like a father to me.
You're always so aggressive whenever he's brought up.
He probably went for some air.
If anything happens to him, I'll go crazy.
You know what kind of a man he is. Don't worry.
- He will come back soon. - He has to.
I hope nothing happens to him.
By the way, did you hear anything from the guy with the guitar?
Of course I did.
He wants 2,000 dollars for the guitar.
I told you he's a con man.
If he comes here again,
I'll glue up that cunning mouth of his.
Can you quiet down? I'm really sensitive today.
Fine.
Do you want another glass?
Hello, nice to meet you.
I'm the hotshot of rock ballad.
I won the rookie award in the Music Awards of 2000.
I'm finally back after having lived in New York for 15 years.
It's nice to meet you.
This hit song won the rookie award in 2000.
I'll be singing "Susanna's Handkerchief".
When I looked at your beautiful face
It brought tears to my eyes
That's when you would silently
Hand me your handkerchief
You used to always tell me
That I should leave you first
You said you only wanted me to see your pretty moments
You told me to leave you there
Susanna
I will stay
By your side
I won't let go of your hands
We will be
Forever happy together
I'll love you forever
Don't cry alone any more
Sung Jun, what are you doing?
You ruined my business.
How can you perform when you're not even ready?
It's not me. It's the guitar.
This guitar isn't mine. I'm not used to it.
Susanna
I will stay
- Gosh, my neck. - My goodness.
Give me a break.
- Did you turn it off? - Get down from there.
You're an embarrassment.
Sung Jun, at this rate, you'll scare off every single customer.
Look at this place.
I think I'll be able to do better later tonight.
Susanna
Oh, come on.
Nothing's going my way today.
So you're saying...
your mother-in-law and brother-in-law replaced the will?
I don't have any evidence, but yes.
A month before he passed,
he signed the will in front of me saying I'll take over control.
Which is why you were off guard.
You're right. I was out of the country for a bit with my wife.
When I got returned, the will was changed.
I'm getting a hunch.
But it won't be easy to prove them wrong.
I know it won't be easy. That's why I'm asking for your help.
The personnel transfer is absurd, too.
Everyone at the company knows that my brother-in-law is a troublemaker.
It doesn't make sense that he became the CEO.
There must have been some kind of a deal with the major shareholders.
They probably cut a deal.
I'm...
not going to go down like this.
Not like this.
As your friend, I can't just sit here and watch...
when they destroyed your pride like this.
It won't be easy, but I'll try my best to help you.
Okay. Thank you.
When I think of my late father-in-law,
it makes me want to just give up and move on.
But I can't let that fool ruin our company.
Some things have to be straightened up.
Hold on. I have to take this.
- Dong Jin! - I'm fine.
You're not fine. Your forehead is bleeding.
- Can you get the first-aid kit? - Okay.
A man doesn't cry from a little scratch.
You don't know a single thing, Dad.
Byung Chul pushed me over.
Dong Jin, listen to me carefully.
You're going to be pushed over and fall many times in your life.
It doesn't matter if you fall as long as you get back up.
And by the way, my son,
a man doesn't blame other people.
Even if you fall and get hurt...
or feel frustrated by falling behind,
you have to put up with it, and that's what makes you a man.
Ouch, my foot!
If you want something, you must endure the pain.
Is my toe okay?
Don't give up in the middle of it.
That's what makes you a real gentleman.
I came down to Anseong to meet my mother-in-law.
Yes, I'll be back by tonight.
Any news from Mr Lee?
Please give me a call if anything happens.
Bye.
Gosh, it's so sweet.
Look at you!
It's just the perfect time to enjoy some fruit, isn't it?
Have you been well?
My only son is in jail.
I can't go visit him because I'm too busy working.
Do you think I've been well?
He's fine. Don't worry too much.
This is why you have to be careful when picking your daughter-in-law.
How can the groom go to jail on his wedding day?
Also,
you know I'm an old woman doing all the work by myself.
Can't you at least pretend to give me a hand?
You never call me.
I had to go visit Gi Pyo, and something came up at the shop.
I'm really sorry.
They have to be ready for delivery by tomorrow morning,
so we have to pick all of them even if it takes all night.
What are you waiting for? Go change and get started.
Okay.
(The Twins')
What is this place?
We had a feeling that you didn't want to have duck.
So I changed the place for our get-together.
Do you like it?
It must be stuffy in that warehouse.
I hope you get some fresh air and lighten up.
- You made the reservation, right? - Yes.
They'll be ready for us by now.
The Twins' is very popular...
for their steamed fish. Let's go in.
I have some things to go over. Go ahead before me.
Let's go.
Be careful. Don't pick the green ones.
Yes, Mother.
Oh, no!
Gosh, look what you've done!
My precious grapes!
I'll eat the ones on the ground.
At this rate, there will be nothing left to sell.
By the way, where is the restroom?
I've been holding it in for a while.
You're a piece of work.
Just go here.
How can I do that?
It'll work as a fertiliser.
How about this? I'll go over there.
You can take care of your business here, okay?
But...
Are you all right?
(The Gentlemen of Wolgyesu Tailor Shop)
You're just going to take off?
After ruining my grapes?
I'm your husband. Please do me a favour.
I warned you never to talk about the tailor shop.
I've always been your fan since I was a student.
I think you're a bit older than me.
Where's your husband now?
- I think he's onto us. - What are you talking about?
Can you really get him out of jail?
- Why are you helping me? - How could I work at a tailor shop?
You really don't want to give it a thought?
- Thief! - Hey!
