(Episode 1)
All right. Take it down.
- Honey. - Yes?
Great. It's going well.
What?
(Happy Bank, 800,000 dollars have been transferred to your account.)
We sold our house.
I was happy then...
because it seemed like everything would turn out great.
He said that if we invested in private equity funds,
we could get multifold returns within a year.
But every fund we invested all the money we had in...
turned into garbage.
For the past two years since then, we moved from a house to another.
This is the monthly rental apartment where we'll live from now on.
That's how we ended up here. We don't own a house anymore.
It's on the second floor, right?
Yes.
Well, it's not too small for the four of us, right?
(Cometome)
(Present time)
Here's the comparison...
between liquid dish detergent in plastic bottles and solid type.
So-called dish soap which is made...
by solidifying liquid detergent can help us live a plastic-free life.
(Housewives in their 30s and 40s, harmless for children)
Since the target market for solid detergent is...
people in their 30s and 40s...
who are interested in health and environmental issues,
we're going to emphasize the fact...
that it's harmless for children...
and that it's made by an eco-friendly company...
The best skyscraper in Gangnam,
Rich High.
The quality of your life will change.
Get a ticket to happiness.
- Rich High. - Oh, no.
I apologize. It must've been mixed up with the wrong file.
It's going to be the best choice...
- for your family. - What are you doing?
- Hey. - You can live in this wonderful...
It seems that you're not prepared yet.
Let's leave now.
No. Please wait.
(Five minutes to Gangnam-gu Office station)
Please give me a second, sir.
(Search, Flychildmom)
(Eco-friendly Baby Food Container)
I think I should just show you rather than explaining.
This is the case where consumers actively promoted a product...
as a result of leading them to participate in the consultation.
The word spread widely in online communities for moms.
If you look here...
- Scroll down. - Okay.
(I was worried since it was my baby's first food.)
"It's a very popular eco-friendly baby food container..."
"that we can use for our babies without worrying about EDCs..."
Goodbye, everyone.
I'm leaving this company to be free from all the worries...
and the pain in this world and to find my dream home.
Bye, you all.
Sir, please wait. Sir.
- What do I do? - How did that happen?
"Goodbye"?
Eui Kyung, is it your dream to quit your job?
- It's not like that... - Let's talk later.
Sir.
Oh, gosh.
Wait. Stop.
- What is she doing? - Sir.
Give me 5 minutes... No, 1 minute will be enough.
She gives me a headache.
Hey, what are you doing? Move aside immediately.
Hey, you can't...
- What are you doing? Get out now. - That's enough.
- Please trust us. - Just move.
- If we advertise on social media, - Open the door now!
- can be a cost-effective way. - Come on. Where are the car keys?
- I can't believe you. - Here.
Hurry up and unlock the door.
Our digital marketing has never failed.
If you hire a famous influencer,
you can save a lot of money from the cost of hiring a model.
- Oh, goodness. - Oh, no.
That's not all. Using a web portal...
For the advertisement...
- Gosh. - Oh, dear.
That's not all.
Should we call the police?
- We can use a web portal... - Come on.
Through online communities for moms and internet forums...
My goodness.
Don't touch me.
This is driving me nuts.
Please just give us a chance. You won't be disappointed.
Please trust us just this once.
Sir, please. I'm begging you.
All right. Let's discuss it further next time.
Then you'll give us a chance, right?
Ms. Seo. Is it right?
Yes, my name is Seo Cho Hee.
Anyway, I'll accept whatever suggestions you make.
So get out of my car this instant.
Oh, I... Right. I'll do that.
- Thank you, sir. - Don't mention it.
Make way, please. They're leaving now.
You can go now. Come on.
Keep going. That's good.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Yes!
(The best skyscraper, Rich High)
(Five minutes to Gangnam-gu Office station)
It was so amazing how Ms. Seo turned the tables.
That's our future chief director.
That won't happen.
The HR announcement is only in a few days.
You are the highest-performing employee.
You're the best of the best and a legend.
Am I right, Chief Director Seo?
It hasn't even been decided.
You're going overboard.
Now, let's start the meeting.
We should look for an influencer and make a detailed plan...
What are you doing?
Ms. Seo.
(The best skyscraper, Rich High)
You're still thinking about Rich High?
I'm sorry.
The application result will be announced today.
I'm so nervous.
Oh, that's why you did that during the presentation.
Goodness, you.
Did you apply for it too?
Of course, I did. It'd be like winning a lottery.
It's like free money.
It's not that easy to win it.
Winning a lottery might be easier than that.
You may not know this, but I have many additional points.
So I have a chance to win it.
The announcement is tomorrow.
Oh, my. Really? Good. I'm relieved.
I thought I didn't get it.
Enough. Can we all focus on the meeting now?
- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, Ms. Seo.
There isn't a table that's large enough for all of us.
There's one over there.
Excuse me.
We need a large table since we're a large group.
Do you mind moving to another table?
- Me? - Yes.
Why should I?
You know... We have six people.
So we need to put two tables together,
and this is the only space that's big enough for us.
I think you can put those two tables together.
You should ask them to move.
But...
I mean we can't ask them all to move.
Please do us a favor.
I refuse.
If you move to another table, it'll be solved easily.
They would all have to move.
This is my favorite spot.
Besides, I just finished disinfecting the table.
I can't move to another table.
He disinfected the table? He must be a lunatic.
What a jerk. He's having this large table all to himself.
He's acting like a clean freak. He should've stayed at home.
Excuse me.
It's true that I'm alone, but this is my third...
I mean, this is my fourth drink.
If you think about the sales, I'm equal to four customers.
So don't think you outnumber me.
And you have no right to tell me to move.
Do you understand?
We're not telling you. We're asking you.
If you're asking me a favor, I already refused.
That's ridiculous.
Calm down. Let's leave and go to another cafe.
Gosh. Unbelievable.
(Seoul Family Court)
(Court)
It'll work out well, right, Attorney Seo?
Of course, it will. I will make sure to end it.
(Court In Session)
(Daegwang Building Intersection)
(Daegwang Building)
Ms. Seo.
Hey.
Let's go together. I'm going to meet someone at Seolleung.
Sorry? Oh, I see.
By the way, aren't you going to get a car?
It'd be perfect if you could...
give me a ride since you live in Gangnam.
Oh, a car... Well...
Well, I guess it's more convenient to take a bus as you live nearby.
Oh, the bus is here. Let's get in.
Oh, okay.
(Gaepo-dong, Bangbae-ro, Seoul Station)
- Ms. Seo, go home safely. - Bye.
See you tomorrow.
(Noble River Vill, the house to go up in value)
I came all the way here again. How silly.
I should change my address in the emergency contact list.
Oh, my. Aren't you Ri An's mother?
It's me. Unit 1401.
It's been a long time.
Hello. Have you been well?
Hello, Ms. Seo.
Ri An is doing well, right?
Of course she's doing great.
Seo Jun, you grew up so much.
Guess what Seo Jun said.
He and Ri An used to be the top two in the class.
He said that studying wasn't so fun anymore...
because Ri An moved to another town.
Seo Jun must still get good grades.
I'm flattered.
Ms. Seo, by the way, where do you live now?
We all wondered that including the neighborhood president.
Oh, I see. Well... I live nearby.
It's near here.
You know that once you move out of Gangnam,
it's impossible to move back in Gangnam.
Is that so?
Oh, my bus is here.
See you around, Ms. Seo.
See you. Seo Jun, you take care too.
- You too. Goodbye. - Bye.
I miss living in this neighborhood.
I'm starving.
When will I get home?
Pick up a semi-dried pollack on your way home.
Oh, and we're out of stir-fried anchovies too.
(From Mother: Pick up a semi-dried pollack on your way.)
It was a little too salty last time.
And dried radish greens seasoned with perilla oil too.
(From Mother: It was a little too salty last time.)
(And dried radish greens seasoned with perilla oil too.)
- "Professor Kang likes it." - Professor Kang likes it.
(From Mother: Professor Kang likes it.)
(Sisters Side Dish)
Mom.
Hi, Cho Hee. You're here.
Hi, Auntie Poong Geum.
Why did you come here instead of going home?
Mom, do you hate it that much when I come here?
You have semi-dried pollack left, don't you?
No.
I see it right here. I'll take some seasoned vegetables too.
You see the prices, right?
Why are you being so stingy when your own daughter will eat it?
Come on. It's not like she doesn't want you to eat it.
It's just that the food she worked so hard to make...
only goes into the mouths of the members of the Kang family.
Don't say that.
Don't worry. Your eldest daughter will eat it all.
I've never seen you eat semi-dried pollack.
That's not true. I like semi-dried pollack.
As if.
Even when we put a small piece in your mouth, you'd spit it out.
Stop it.
So?
How much will you charge me?
One braised semi-dried pollack and three vegetables are 12 dollars.
Oh, I don't have any small bills.
I'll give you just ten dollars.
- I'm back. - Welcome back, my dear nephew.
- Hi. - You're early today.
Yes. The trial ended early.
Again?
What are you talking about? I paid for this.
I don't need to eat dinner. I'll go out to exercise.
Eat dinner before you go out.
I'm not hungry.
Hey, you have something on your hair...
Stop it. Did you wash that hand?
Gosh. How dirty.
What? "Dirty"?
He always makes me feel embarrassed. Hey, you have a problem.
That's why he's still single.
Who would like a man like him?
Come on. Listen.
A clean man like him...
is much better than a dirty one with no sense of hygiene.
And hey, you complained that your husband...
doesn't wash his feet and pick his nose in front of you.
Gosh. That's so gross.
Why would you talk about him now?
Kang Rim is a clean freak. He's not normal.
Cho Hee, you should go now and make dinner for Ri An.
Oh, no. I lost track of time.
And stop worrying about my lovely son,
and take good care of your foolish husband.
Fine. I'll get going.
Bye.
She must hate to hear it as he's her husband after all.
(Sisters Side Dish)
The citations in that dissertation are all wrong.
And there's a lot of errors in the footnotes too.
Let's talk about it tomorrow at the office. Bye.
She's angry.
I came back late because I attended a church service for the community.
Oh, dear. I feel sleepy all the time these days.
Gosh, I'm so hungry. Honey, when will dinner be ready?
Right. Professor Kang must be hungry.
Oh, good.
You bought semi-dried pollack, right?
I'm going out to pick Ri An up.
Oh, okay.
- And Mother. - Yes?
Your son Professor Kang Nam Gu...
doesn't like semi-dried pollack because of its texture.
You can say that you want to eat it from now on.
My goodness.
Look how petty she's about food. She makes me feel so sad.
Gosh. I can't believe her.
Professor Kang.
Gosh...
I like semi-dried pollack.
Why did she say that?
You said you'd make me live without worrying about money.
You must be watching me...
walking on eggshells around my daughter-in-law.
Don't you feel bad at all?
You're a bad man.
You are a really bad man.
Eighteen.
Nineteen.
Twenty...
Guess who.
If you fail to get the correct answer,
you will be fined.
Take your hands off.
The fine is only 100 dollars.
It's chump change, right?
I told you to take your hands off.
Guess who it is first.
Three.
Two.
One.
Gosh, Kang Rim. That hurts.
Seo Bo Ri.
Did you drink again?
Yes, I had just one drink with the composer.
- One drink, my foot. - The composer said...
that I had an angelic voice,
and my voice is full of trot vibes.
What?
Where did you get that?
- Get what? - The ring!
Gosh, you startled me.
Why would you yell at me?
I saw two of these in your room.
So I borrowed one of them. Why?
Gosh, you little... Take it off now.
No.
It's not like it will wear out.
Three.
Two.
One.
Fine.
Here. I'll give it back to you, okay?
Hey, how could you...
I'm sorry, Kang Rim.
Shall I help you find it?
Forget it.
Never touch my belongings again. Do I make myself clear?
Yes.
I found it.
There.
We've covered everything about the baby food container fair.
We'll go with the online channel as we planned.
- Okay. - Yes.
Then let's come up with some ideas for social media advertisements.
Eui Kyung, we're still having a meeting.
(The best skyscraper in Gangnam, Rich High)
(You've won the right to buy a unit of Rich High.)
Oh, my.
I can't believe this. I won. I got it.
I won the right to buy a unit of Rich High.
That's great. Congratulations...
Then goodbye, everyone.
Honey.
My gosh.
What are you doing, Eui Kyung?
Here.
(Resignation Letter)
What's this?
My dream finally came true. I quit.
What?
I'm free as of today.
You work here forever...
pulling all-nighters every night to come up with ideas.
(Conference Room)
Or you can even be buried here after you die.
I'm off.
I'm speechless.
(Noble River Vill, the house to go up in value)
Ms. Seo, thank you as always.
Go home safely.
I'm here again. How silly.
Gosh. I'm so annoyed.
Seo Cho Hee?
You're Seo Cho Hee, right?
It's me, Cho Hee.
Hello.
Won Ju?
No Won Ju?
(The All-Round Wife)
Who's that girl outside?
She looks like the type that Kang Rim would like.
- Your name is? - Han Seul A.
She's a little peculiar, right? But she seemed quite wealthy.
Owning a house in Gangnam. That's the best way.
We shouldn't have sold our house.
Did something bad happen?
The new chief director Yang Jae Min.
- It's nice to meet you. - Oh, gosh.
I'm done for.
