(Episode 17)
- Mom. - How was your class?
- Dad. - Hey, you're here.
Oh, my.
What has gotten into you?
I told you I would pick her up today.
I just wanted to go home with you.
Hey, Ri An.
Mom.
- Hello. - Hi.
Hi, Sa Rang.
Where's your mom?
Oh, dear. Sa Rang.
I'm sorry for being late.
Hey, Cho Hee.
It's been a while.
Hi. It's been a while.
Have you been well?
We meet again.
It's getting late. Let's go home.
Sa Rang, see you around.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
See you, Won Ju. Let's get going.
- Let's go. - Bye.
Mom.
I want Dad to come with you to pick me up as they do.
As if. He would never do that.
Gosh. What is Bang Hyung Do doing?
I'm not sure.
Does it look good on me? I feel a little awkward.
Look at you. You do have a baby face.
That's not true.
How old do I look?
Well... In your early 30s?
Wait, no.
People would think that you're a college student at a glance.
A college student?
I wonder if Ms. Gong Ju A would think the same way.
I really like this style. It makes me look younger.
Pa Ran. Hey.
Why, Auntie Sun Duk?
How come you have no rice at home?
What have you been eating for breakfast until now?
Of course, I don't eat breakfast. I can just grab something at school.
Then what about me? Do you want me to starve?
Order delivery food like I do.
Cooking is such a hassle, you know.
I can't do that. If I order delivery food too often,
Cho Hee will find out that I'm here.
Then don't eat or whatever you want.
What was that? Gosh. I'm so hungry.
By the way, how much longer will you stay here?
I can't go home yet. I should find solid evidence first.
How would you find evidence while staying home all day long?
I guess you're right.
Hey, wait. Come over here just a second.
Why? Just go ahead.
If Cho Hee is having an affair with her work colleague,
she must have lunch with that man. Am I right?
So?
Let's catch her in the act.
And she won't just eat. I'm sure of it.
I have a class in the afternoon.
This is an important family matter.
Besides, I don't know how he looks, but you do.
Gosh. Whatever.
Hey. Why would that girl...
I really need to catch her cheating.
How should I do that?
Why hasn't she come out yet when it's her lunch break?
Is there another entrance in this building?
Maybe there's a cafeteria for the employees inside.
They wouldn't eat at the cafeteria since they're having an affair.
Oh, dear. Ouch, My legs hurt.
We might get caught at this rate.
Come on. It's hard to crouch down at my age.
Gosh. Dear me.
- I'm so hungry right now. - Me too.
Mother?
(Cometome will be the key to the door to global business.)
Darn.
Stop. You can't leave without me.
Mother.
Mother, what brings you here?
Mother. Wait.
Mother. Please stop.
I almost got caught.
I haven't run like that in a while. Gosh, I'm dizzy.
Oh, dear. Goodness. My gosh.
Darling.
I came up with a good lie to tell my husband.
He almost got me, you know.
What are you looking at, Kang Nam Gu?
Stop. No.
Kang Nam Gu, why are you not confident in yourself?
Gosh.
Hey, what's up?
What?
Mom went to your office?
Yes, I saw her near my office.
I'm pretty sure she came to see me.
Do you know anything, by any chance?
No. I don't know anything.
But why did she go there?
Could something have happened at the elder's house?
She won't even answer my calls. I'm worried about her.
So try calling her instead of me.
Okay, I'll do that. And honey...
That's weird.
Why did Mom go to her office?
Professor Kang.
Don't you have a class?
Oh, right.
Yes, I do. I should go.
Oh, has your mother come back home?
My mom?
She came back a long time ago.
That's a relief. I was worried since Cho Hee didn't say anything.
I suppose she made up with Cho Hee too, right?
Of course, she did.
Then I'm going to call Cho Hee later today.
You'll call her?
Well... Cho Hee seems quite busy lately.
She's always busy with work and house chores.
She never has any free time.
That's true. What I'm saying is...
that it'd be better if you talked about it with her sometime later.
- Pardon? - I mean...
That's just what I think.
Cho Hee has a lot on her plate these days.
- I should go now. - Okay. See you.
He doesn't want me to see her? I think that's what he meant.
I wonder what's going on.
Hey. Even so, how could you run leaving me alone there?
I thought it'd be better than both of us getting caught.
We lost our chance today. Let's try again tomorrow, okay?
I have a better idea. How about you stake out in front of the house?
In front of the house?
That's right. That man could drive her home.
If you catch them together, it could be solid evidence.
You're right. That's a good idea.
- Right? - Yes.
Is that so?
I'm going to my class now. Talk to you later.
In front of the house?
Right.
If I get lucky, I could get evidence.
In our next class,
we'll talk about donations.
We'll discuss what each of us can offer to society...
and the different types of donations in the class.
After that, you will actually make a donation.
It will be your assignment.
- Oh, goodness. What's that? - A donation?
- What kind of assignment is that? - I'm in trouble.
- What is this? - I'm done for.
- I have no idea. I'm worried. - Unbelievable.
Listen. I'm not telling you to donate a fortune like Bill Gates.
If you just save money for a cup of coffee you drink every day,
you can get enough money to donate in a week.
That's it for today's class. I'll see you all next week.
Professor Seo is like no other.
He always gives us a thought-provoking assignment.
What makes you think that it's thought-provoking?
You don't think so? It's definitely thought-provoking.
Anyway, an inspiring professor like Professor Seo is the best.
He always inspires me.
I'm used to that now.
It's okay. I'm fine.
By the way,
will he give us a better grade if we donate a lot of money?
It's not about money.
Honesty and sincerity matter the most.
We can just stop ordering cake when we go to a cafe.
So let's do our best, Pa Ran.
Okay.
(Liberal Arts Department, Culture and Arts Education Center)
Not again.
I sent you money not long ago. Why are you asking for more?
Mom.
I lost my part-time job, and I don't have any money.
You think I'm lying? Come on, Mom. Why would I tell a lie like that?
Anyway, I understand. I'll send you the money as soon as I get it.
I mean, where can I get that much money right now?
A donation, my foot.
I'm the one who needs help.
Maybe I should've explained about donation more in detail.
Mom, did you go to Cho Hee's office earlier in the afternoon?
Me?
No.
You went there.
Why did you go there?
Professor Kang, hasn't Cho Hee been acting unusual lately?
Pa Ran, you told her that nonsense you told me, didn't you?
It wasn't nonsense. I only told her the fact.
Hey, that can't be the fact.
I saw her with my own eyes.
What else would you call it if it's not the fact?
You little...
Mom, don't let Pa Ran's nonsense sway you.
Just stay at home quietly, okay?
Don't make things more complicated.
- But Professor Kang... - I'll go back home.
Watch your mouth.
Goodness. He's too soft. No wonder why she's cheating.
Exactly. He'll be stabbed in the back by her.
Pa Ran, stake out in front of this building starting today.
- Me? - It was your idea.
And Nam Gu just told me to stay at home.
No. I don't want to.
This is an important family matter.
I have assignments to finish too.
Come on. You never studied hard.
I saw you partying and having fun every single day.
I'm really busy.
I can't believe her. Hey.
Anyway, what am I going to do?
(Our side dishes are freshly made every morning.)
Mom, I'm here.
Hi, Cho Hee.
You're here later than usual.
We were about to close the store.
I see.
Cho Hee, what would you like today?
Well... Anything that can boost my energy.
Is everything okay with your family?
There isn't a single peaceful day in my house, you know.
Oh, gosh. Did she get caught after all?
What do you mean?
What?
Oh, right. My mother-in-law left the spa.
That's great news. So did you make up with her?
No. I haven't even seen her yet.
She'll stay at the house of the elder of her church.
Gosh. I don't understand why she must be so stubborn.
An elder, my foot.
Actually, your mother-in-law...
- Seo Bo Ri. - Hey, Bo Ri as in barley,
zip your mouth. Zip it.
Got it.
What's with you guys?
Whatever the reason was, apologize to her.
You should apologize first,
so she can find a reason to come back.
But I have done nothing wrong.
That doesn't matter. Just forget about it.
Okay. I heard you.
But she won't even answer my calls.
Earlier today, she came to the front of my office building...
and disappeared when she saw me as if she was running away from me.
I guess she felt guilty.
Seo Bo Ri.
Fine. I'll keep my mouth shut.
By the way, Mom, why do you keep cutting Bo Ri off?
That's not important. Bo Ri, go upstairs now.
You never help us at the store. You only cause trouble. Go now.
You always nag only me.
Cho Hee, go home safely.
Bye.
So... What should I pack for Cho Hee?
Well... I don't know. I think...
- Right. How about jangjorim? - Good.
- There it is. - Okay.
Here.
What?
I'm back, sir.
Oh, hey. Mademoiselle.
Pardon me?
Well, it's... Never mind.
I see you couldn't deliver some of the clothes.
They weren't home.
And I picked this up for dry cleaning.
Okay. Good job today. Go home now.
Well... Sir.
Yes?
I'm sorry, but can I get paid in advance?
An advance? But you've been working here only for a few days.
I know that, but I need some money urgently.
Hold on.
Thanks for calling Premium Dry Cleaning.
Pick up service?
It's too late. We'll pick those up when we're on delivery.
Then find another dry cleaners' that offers 24-hour service.
Sir, I'll go and pick them up.
It's getting too late. That's not necessary.
It's okay. Let me talk to the customer.
Hello? Could you give me your address, please?
Yes.
Yes, of course. I'm on my way. Thank you.
Sir, I'll be back shortly.
Don't close the shop until I'm back.
You can go tomorrow. It could be dangerous.
I already said I would go.
I'll get going.
She asked me to pay her in advance, right?
I can't just refuse to do that.
Ri An, don't you have any homework?
I have a little left to do.
But I want to help you today.
Oh, my. Thank you. That's so sweet of you.
I have nothing to worry about since I have you.
It's so good. Grandma is such a great cook.
- Do you like it? - Yes.
She must've packed so much, so you could eat a lot.
Pa Ran likes jangjorim too. Should I give her some?
That'd be great. It's too much for us anyway.
- Right? - Yes.
Okay.
There. Let's share it with Pa Ran.
We should eat home-cooked meals. Will we keep eating delivery food?
Then will you cook?
Gosh, you.
I know it's convenient.
I'm just afraid I might get caught at this rate.
You're eating with gusto for someone who's worried.
We have an emergency. Auntie Sun Duk, did you hear me?
Why? What is it?
- What is she doing here? - Just hide.
- Hurry up. - Where?
- Hide in my room. - In your room?
Hey, easy. Gosh.
Why did she come here?
Hi, Cho Hee.
Pa Ran, I thought you weren't home.
Didn't you hear the doorbell?
No, I didn't.
Even so, you shouldn't have barged in like this.
I should change the passcode again.
I'm sorry. I came here to give you some side dishes.
I don't cook. So I don't need any side dishes.
But still... You never know.
I see you were having dinner.
But I don't see... Are you with a friend?
No. It's just me and no one else.
But I see two bowls of noodles.
I've been having such a big appetite.
Oh, my.
Hey, Ri An. Did your mom go somewhere?
I saw you with her until just now.
She went to Auntie Pa Ran's.
She went there to give her side dishes.
Oh, I see.
To Pa Ran's?
What? No.
Hey, honey, you're back.
Are you going out?
No. I told you that I was hungry.
Where on earth did you go?
I went to Pa Ran's.
And didn't you see the food on the table?
Food?
When did you prepare all that?
I guess I couldn't see that.
By the way, honey... It's about Pa Ran.
What about her?
She's suspicious.
She's suspicious?
Yes.
It seemed...
that someone was hiding somewhere in her house.
Did she leave?
Yes, she left a long time ago.
Great.
I was so surprised that my heart dropped.
Why does everything that Cho Hee does annoy me?
I couldn't even finish my dinner because she barged in.
How would I know? She's your daughter-in-law.
And you should've told me that she had left...
so that I could come out of the room.
Why didn't you tell me?
I thought you were listening in the room.
So I guessed you didn't want to come out of the room.
What?
I'm sorry.
Anyway, that ruined my appetite.
- Finish your food if you want. - Okay.
Hey, why did you mix it? I wasn't finished with mine.
You think I wanted to do that?
Gosh. What a waste.
I can't eat this now.
Then please clean up the table, Auntie Sun Duk.
And empty those containers and recycle them.
- I should do all that? - I paid for the food.
So you should clean up, right?
What?
I'm being treated the same way here too.
My gosh.
She's suspicious.
What do you mean?
I think...
that Pa Ran has a boyfriend.
What?
I'm telling you,
it seemed like someone was hiding.
It's natural for her to have a boyfriend since she's an adult.
Pretend that you don't know anything. Come on.
Oh, my. When will Ri An become an adult and start dating a man?
The thought of it already stresses me out. Oh, man.
If her parents find out, they'd throw a fit.
I mean, just because he works late,
that doesn't mean he's cheating.
And you said you didn't have any evidence.
Eui Kyung, instead of speculating and getting stressed out,
talk to your husband...
Why can't you talk about it?
My brother Kang Rim told you to collect evidence?
Gosh. Fine. I'll talk to you later.
Unbelievable.
What was that about?
Is someone having an affair?
It was my work colleague Eui Kyung.
She thinks her husband is having an affair with his work colleague.
Is that so?
Oh, right. How is Mother doing?
Are you sure she's doing well?
I mean, I can't convince her to come home...
since she's been rejecting my calls.
My goodness.
What do you think?
About what? Mother?
No. About cheating.
Don't tell me...
What?
You're not cheating on me, are you?
What? Me?
You'll be killed by me if you get caught cheating.
I'll kill you and then myself. You know, right?
Gosh. Forget it.
You sleep on that side.
Had it not been for the owner of the dry cleaners',
I couldn't have gotten the money.
By the way, I hope...
that Mom's life gets better at the tangerine farm.
I also hope she'll get along well with others there.
Seul A, wait.
Until when will things be so awkward between us?
I don't know.
Forget what I said to you.
Let's forget the whole thing.
And I'm sorry.
I'm the one who should be apologizing to you.
What?
Liking someone is not wrong.
Seul A.
But I don't have time for that.
I'm too busy to like someone...
or accept someone's feelings for me.
(The All-Round Wife)
- How's Seul A doing? - I don't know.
Liking someone is not wrong.
Are you saying that you won't come home tonight?
I'm not sure.
I feel like I'm left out. It doesn't feel good.
You're wrong about that.
Let's go in.
How could they? I got you!
Cho Hee! Stop!
