(Episode 116)
I'll cut to the point and ask you a question.
By any chance, did you meet my late father...
when he was alive?
What?
Father.
You really never met my father?
Cho Hee.
You see...
Your father...
I never met him.
I see.
Okay.
Also, I'm trying to help because I want to repay your family.
Jang Geum, Poong Geum,
you, Attorney Seo, and Bo Ri.
I just want to repay my debt of gratitude.
Because of my grandparents?
Yes. I truly want to repay them for everything they did for me.
I see.
That said,
I will do my best to repay my debt of gratitude while I'm alive.
So please don't mind me.
I'm doing it because I want to.
Okay?
Yes.
Good.
You must've been surprised when I asked you to meet out of the blue.
I was actually happy to hear from you.
Although you must know what Bo Ri and I are going through.
Yes.
I don't think it's right for a third party to step in, but...
It's okay. Please go ahead.
Bo Ri is having such a hard time.
I'm really sorry.
Mr. Yang.
I believe that there is the correct order for everything.
If you move out in the midst of all this,
how do you think your parents will feel?
It'll be even harder for them to approve of Bo Ri.
Then Bo Ri will have to carry that burden.
So...
I wanted to meet you to tell you that you must make a wise decision.
Okay.
What are you writing down so meticulously?
You know, webfoot octopus will be in season soon.
I want to make seasoned webfoot octopus.
I'm trying to come up with a new recipe.
All right.
Is Bo Ri in her room?
Oh, she stepped out to buy some workbooks.
Jang Geum.
Are you really going to be against her relationship with Mr. Yang?
Of course. You know how his mother treated her.
How could I not be against it?
I want to meet his parents and take it up with them,
but I'm not doing that because I care about Mr. Yang.
Right.
We shouldn't do what they did.
Hello, Sisters Side Dish.
Delivery?
We normally don't deliver.
Just a moment, please.
Yes, what's the address?
Yes.
Okay.
Jae Min, have you not been eating?
I had some porridge this morning and took my medicine too.
I'm sorry you're going through this because of me.
Don't do this. You should just go home.
Your parents must be worried. Please?
I want to do everything you ask me to do,
but I can't go home now.
Why not?
I told you.
I'm doing this because I want to live my life on my own terms.
Jae Min, don't say that.
In any case,
I will persuade my parents, and I'll do it my way.
So I have to ask you to wait.
Just a little more...
Please wait just a little longer.
No.
I don't want to see you...
until you go home.
Bo Ri.
Darn it.
I have no energy left.
I'm so exhausted after delivering one order.
Should we look into hiring a delivery service company?
Bo Ri.
Let go.
What? That's Bo Ri.
She said she was stepping out to buy workbooks.
She was out on a date?
Don't be like this, Bo Ri.
Please don't do this, Jae Min.
I thought about it over and over, and this is wrong.
Please, I beg you. Just go home.
Bo Ri!
- Auntie Poong Geum. - Auntie Poong Geum.
I'm glad I ran into you.
Look, Mr. Yang.
A real man...
must take responsibility for his own words.
What did you say to us?
You said you'd make sure Bo Ri would never be hurt.
Right.
And what is this now?
Do you even know what Bo Ri had to deal with?
Auntie Poong Geum, stop.
Stop what? Don't be so stupid!
Auntie Poong Geum, could you please elaborate?
Your mother called Bo Ri...
and lashed out at her, asking her where she was hiding you.
- What? - Auntie Poong Geum!
It's not true, Jae Min. My aunt got the wrong idea.
My mother called you?
It's true, Bo Ri!
His mother called you.
Why can't you tell him what she did to you?
Whether you want to move out or not, we don't care.
But lashing out at Bo Ri like that...
is so wrong.
What did she do wrong?
All she did was fall for you.
It's not like she urged you to pack up and leave.
Auntie Poong Geum, why are you being like this?
Anyway, no one in the family supports this kind of relationship.
So please...
don't sneak her out and try to sway her.
- Let's go, Bo Ri. - Auntie Poong Geum!
Gosh, seriously. Get it together, Bo Ri!
Think about how upset your mother must be.
You really shouldn't do this.
Come with me. Now.
- Gosh. - Wait, Auntie Poong Geum.
What?
Move aside!
The thing is...
Jae Min, you should leave.
Okay. Let's go, Auntie Poong Geum.
Go, quick.
You brat.
Gosh, seriously. How old are you?
Go! Go on in.
- Goodness. - You came back together?
Don't even get me started.
She told me she was stepping out to get workbooks.
But do you know what she did?
What did Bo Ri do?
I'm going upstairs.
- My gosh. - Hey, Bo Ri! That little brat.
Goodness, I can't believe this. She did nothing to be proud of.
What happened?
Jang Geum.
I ran into Bo Ri...
when she was with Yang Jae Min just down the street.
What?
But it doesn't look like they can break up.
What should we do, Jang Geum?
My goodness.
Hold on.
So you'll become a member of this little fam here? Is that it?
Yes, it happened to be so.
"Fam?" What does that mean?
"Family," Mom.
Learn the words that young people use these days.
Hyung Do.
I'm in charge of launching Bangsoo Construction's new brand.
My gosh, that's great. Congratulations.
Thank you. I owe it all to you, Professor Kang.
Gosh, that's not true. You wrote the business plan.
I only gave you a little advice.
Why does it matter who wrote it or who helped?
What matters is the fact that we, the three brothers,
joined forces and achieved something.
Hey.
"Three brothers?"
That's nice.
In any case, congratulations.
I hope it all goes well.
Thank you, Ms. Na.
Bang Hyung Do.
Yes?
Seok Gu, don't be rude.
What are you going to say?
Goodness. Stay out of this.
Regardless of your title in the company,
you know that I have more seniority in this staff room, right?
Right, of course. I'm well aware.
If you have any questions, ask away anytime.
I will tell you everything you need to know...
to get the most out of this staff room.
Okay, thank you. Please help me out, sir!
By the way, did Mr. Bang go somewhere?
Yes, he said he was busy today.
He told me we should go ahead and eat without him.
I see.
The side dishes look delicious.
- Here, one for you. - Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
Your father... I never met him.
That said,
I will do my best to repay my debt of gratitude while I'm alive.
So please don't mind me.
I'm doing it because I want to.
I wonder.
Is that really the only reason?
(Chief Director Seo Cho Hee)
My goodness.
What about Bo Ri?
I don't know.
I can't tell if she's sleeping or just pretending to be asleep.
She won't even answer me.
Oh, you made seaweed soup.
Yes, I did.
Eat up.
Are you not eating, Mother?
I'm not hungry. Go ahead and eat.
You like seaweed soup.
I have no appetite.
Why did you make seaweed soup if you weren't going to have any?
I got some good-quality seaweed,
so I made it for you guys.
Let's eat.
Okay.
What's wrong, Sun Hae?
I'm sorry. I'm feeling a little queasy.
Do you have morning sickness?
It should be starting around now.
Yes. Are you going to be okay?
Yes, I'm fine. Thank you for the food.
It's delicious, Mother.
Did Nam Gu leave already?
Yes. He left early to have dinner with Cho Hee.
I see.
Yes.
Oh, no. She started getting morning sickness.
It must be tough.
All right. Talk soon, Jang Geum.
Oh, no. Did her daughter-in-law start getting morning sickness?
Yes, that's right.
Gosh, morning sickness.
Professor Choi must be having a hard time.
Goodness. I feel so bad for her.
Seok Gu.
You seem overly interested in Professor Choi.
What are you talking about?
I'm just a little worried about her. That's all.
She probably can't eat well because of her morning sickness.
Should we make something and send it to her?
My gosh, that'd be nice.
It's such a relief to find something you can eat during morning sickness.
Really?
Then how about we buy some fresh abalone...
and make abalone porridge for her?
We should make extra so we can have some too.
Abalone porridge?
But Brad, you don't eat abalone porridge.
You can't eat abalone?
Why not? It's so good.
Oh, I'm allergic to the intestines.
I don't have to eat it.
Anyway, let's go grocery shopping on our way home.
What do you say, Ms. Na?
Sounds good, Brad.
Will you make some for me too?
You? If you behave yourself.
Darn it. Must you be so petty?
You're so petty!
Seriously.
So? Did Mr. Bang say he never met your father?
That's right. He said he was helping us...
because he feels indebted to my grandparents.
But you seem uneasy for some reason.
He said he'd always take care of me and my siblings,
but it makes me feel uncomfortable.
I do feel uneasy for some reason.
Cho Hee.
Let's be grateful for his help.
If it gets too much,
we can politely decline. What do you say?
Yes, we should do that.
And...
I met Mr. Yang today.
What? You didn't tell me you were meeting him.
I contacted him first...
because I couldn't let Bo Ri suffer like that.
So? What did he say?
He's really stressed out too.
And living at hotels...
is taking a toll on his health.
Really?
But he still loves Bo Ri very much.
It's just that...
I'm worried it won't be easy to reconcile with his parents.
- Oh, my. - Goodness.
Brad, don't you think we bought too much?
Maybe.
How many people are in Jang Geum's family?
Father.
Hey, Won Ju. Hyung Do will be home late.
- Yes, he called me. - Good.
What is all this?
Oh, this. We bought some abalone.
- I see, abalone. - Yes.
Father, aren't you allergic to abalone?
This isn't for me. We'll send it to Attorney Seo.
His wife started getting morning sickness.
- Oh, Sun Hae? - Yes.
You could've just ordered some to be sent to her address.
She's not our family. Why go through all the trouble?
Come on. We should make it ourselves to show her how much we care.
We bought plenty, so we can have some too.
Father, I'll make abalone porridge.
Don't worry. I don't want to make you work.
Ms. Na and I will make what we'll send to Attorney Seo.
You can make some for Hyung Do and Sa Rang if you'd like.
Yes. Do that, Won Ju.
Come on. Don't be like this. I'll just make it for everyone.
Attorney Seo's wife is my close friend, you know.
So just go in and get some rest.
- My goodness. - Well...
I got this.
Goodness. It'll be a lot of work to prepare all the abalone.
Don't worry. I can clean them quickly and thoroughly.
Will you really be okay?
Yes.
Don't worry. Get some rest.
All right, then.
Is it indigestion? Or do you have no appetite?
I'm not sure. Maybe it's both.
Gosh, I'm worried.
My appetite has decreased,
but it's not like I can't eat anything.
And they say all expectant mothers go through this for about a month.
Right, but you won't be able to eat well for a whole month.
If I could, I'd gladly go through this in your stead.
Hold on.
Goodness. Why is he calling again?
Who is it?
It's Kang Seok Gu.
What's up?
How's the expectant father doing?
Well, I'd be happier if you stopped calling me.
Goodness. You're still so cranky.
I told you not to mind me.
I'm hanging up.
Wait, hold on.
I called to give you some important information.
Don't hang up like this.
"Important information?" What do you mean?
Are you talking to Kang Rim?
Attorney Seo, Chairman Bang will visit you tomorrow.
Why do you think he's visiting you?
What do you say? You're curious, aren't you?
Abalone porridge?
I can't eat abalone.
It's not for you.
It's for my dear Professor Choi.
"My dear Professor Choi?"
I'm hanging up.
What's going on?
Why did Ri An's uncle call you?
Oh, don't worry about it.
Goodness.
He and his temper.
Anyway, how come these people can't eat abalone?
Seok Gu, what do you mean my father-in-law...
is visiting Kang Rim?
He heard about Professor Choi's morning sickness and got worried,
so he wants to make abalone porridge for her.
He'll make it himself?
Yes.
Mr. Bang is so caring.
Yes.
Mr. Bang is allergic to abalone,
and Attorney Seo can't eat abalone either.
Right, Kang Rim doesn't eat abalone.
I have to say, they really don't jibe.
Actually, are they just too similar?
Whatever, I don't care.
I can't believe I have to do this for Cho Hee's family.
Gosh, my arm hurts.
This is way harder than cleaning the building.
Dad, I'm home.
What now?
My arm is about to fall off because I've been...
scrubbing abalone for Cho Hee's family.
So what?
You see, Father...
never buys us anything. Not even a little fish.
He bought a big box of expensive abalone for them.
What's with him?
How would I know?
Did something happen at work today?
No, nothing happened.
That can't be.
There's definitely something.
Goodness. Aren't you tired of this? What's the problem now?
Yes, Mr. Kim.
That's the only day when Attorney Moon is available?
- Hey. - Go away.
Well, I'd like to meet with Attorney Moon sooner.
It's about none other than my will.
Okay. Then try to find another day.
Okay, sounds good.
- Father! - Gosh, you scared me.
When did you come out?
About your will, Father.
You already updated it once after you got remarried.
Right, I did.
But you need to update it again?
Why do you ask?
It's my will, so I can do whatever I want with it.
But why? How are you changing it?
How did you change it last time?
And what are you trying to change this time?
What's the matter?
Father, Hyung Do is your only son.
Sa Rang is your only granddaughter,
and I am your only daughter-in-law.
Why must you keep changing your will...
and make us feel anxious?
Are you done talking?
Pardon?
Yes, I'm done.
Okay, you're done?
Then I must...
put an end to this today.
Sorry?
Hyung Do! Ms. Na! Come on out.
I recently updated my will.
As you all know,
it was done after Ms. Na and I got married.
But I want to update it again.
However, Won Ju says that it's making her anxious,
so I figured I should talk to all of you...
to get things sorted out.
Dad.
So how are you planning to change it?
Right.
What do you think I'll change?
Father, please.
Are you saying you'll disclose the contents of your will?
To whom?
Who's getting what? How are you dividing your assets?
I won't divide my assets.
Brad.
Then what will you do?
I don't diversify my investments.
I always put all my money into one thing.
Are you saying one person will inherit everything?
Who is that person, Father?
That I can't tell you.
That person already knows.
That person already knows?
It's not me.
Then could it be...
Me? No! It's not me.
Then who is it, Father?
(The All-Round Wife)
Take care of the rest, Mr. Kim.
Are you sure it's not you?
I told you. It's not me.
- What if I'm that thief? - What?
What's with that look?
Did you eat rotten food this morning or something?
Just a moment, Poong Geum.
Who is it that she has to take the call upstairs?
About Father's will...
His will?
