Mom, Cho Hee and Nam Gu are here.
Are you really not going to come out?
Nam Gu.
We do appreciate you working so hard to support Cho Hee and Ri An, but...
Gosh.
Ms. Na was really out of line.
She can't keep blatantly insulting her in-laws like this.
I'm sorry. I'm humiliated.
This is not Nam Gu's fault.
The situation was... It just turned out this way.
- Jang Geum. - Mom.
Mother, I'm sorry.
- Honey. - Nam Gu!
Mom.
Nam Gu, my mom won't forgive you even if you do this.
Not a chance.
Right, Mom?
Hey, let's talk.
About what?
I need to talk to you about something. Come with me.
- But... - Come on.
Mother.
I'm really sorry...
for causing you concern and hurting your feelings.
Mom, Nam Gu is sincerely apologizing.
That's right. I totally forgot to close up the shop.
I'll go close up now.
You said you needed to talk to me about something. What is it?
I needed to talk to you?
Hold on. What was it about?
It was about...
I suddenly can't remember.
- Then I'm going. - Hey!
Gosh, seriously! Must you step in?
Don't do anything, please.
No! I've got lots to say to Nam Gu and Cho Hee.
And I'll show them this time.
Goodness, you're so immature.
Hey, seriously.
Do you want to see your sister get a divorce?
A divorce? That doesn't scare me.
Living solo would be a lot better than having to put up...
with her awful in-laws for the rest of her life.
Still, do not even bring up the word, "divorce",
in front of your mother, okay?
The moment she hears it, she'll faint. Do you understand?
Get up, honey.
Get up, and let's talk.
Get a divorce.
- Mother. - Mom.
Do you know...
why I ended up giving you my permission to marry Cho Hee?
It was because I trusted you.
What did you promise me...
when you were marrying Cho Hee?
I'm sorry, Mother.
All the humiliation my family had to deal with.
You said you'd make up for it by being very good to Cho Hee.
I trusted you, so I let you marry her.
So how could you let this happen?
If you can't forgive my mother,
you can take it all out on me.
It is my fault.
This happened because I'm an incompetent husband.
Honey.
Is this it? Her side dish store.
Wait!
Mom, I really don't think you should do this.
Just wait until Nam Gu comes out. Then you can talk to him.
- Move! Out of my way! - Wait!
Mom, wait!
(Premium Dry Cleaning)
Who is that angry lady that just barged into the side dish store?
Is it through here?
Mom! My goodness.
Mom.
I'm okay. Why are you being like this?
Yes, we're sorry.
I'm really sorry that your feelings were hurt.
But you know,
Nam Gu and I were just trying to work hard to live a better life.
We never intended to hurt anyone's feelings.
Is this the outcome...
of all your hard work?
You work yourself to the bone...
to support your family, but what's the point?
Instead of thanking or even encouraging you,
they blame all their misfortunes on you.
Have you no pride?
Do you want to keep being...
that woman's daughter-in-law even after hearing that?
Did I go through all the trouble...
to raise you to see you in this mess?
And Nam Gu.
I understand that you're Ms. Na's precious son,
but Cho Hee is also my precious child,
and I'd do anything for her.
I'm aware, Mother.
Okay. I do not want to see my daughter...
get treated like that anymore,
so split up. Please.
Mom.
No, Mother.
I can't get a divorce.
If I had to choose one person...
between Cho Hee and my mother,
I would choose Cho Hee without hesitation.
Look, Nam Gu.
Ms. Na.
My gosh.
Mom.
Mother, what are you doing here?
Mom!
Ms. Na.
Honey.
(Sisters Side Dish)
Wait up, Mom!
What's going on?
Cho Hee, you and Nam Gu should go and talk to Ms. Na.
Mother.
Mom.
Okay. I'll put my trust in you once more, Nam Gu.
So don't worry about me.
Hurry, go.
She must be in shock right now.
Come on, honey.
Then we'll visit you again another time, Mother.
Okay, hurry.
We'll be off, then.
Let's go.
If I had to choose one person...
between Cho Hee and my mother,
I would choose Cho Hee without hesitation.
My son...
How could he do this to me?
How could my son do this to me?
Mom, let's go home.
Get up.
Why did she have to show up right at that moment?
That must've been so shocking for her.
This shock was necessary.
She needed a reality check.
Be quiet, will you?
Come on, Mom.
Her son is the one who will suffer if she keeps being mean to Cho Hee.
She needs to know that her son will ditch her if she keeps it up.
Every parent feels the same way.
No matter what anyone says,
your child is more precious than anyone else in the world.
But she heard Nam Gu say...
that he would choose Cho Hee over her.
She must be so upset now.
She needs to know that Cho Hee is as precious to you as he is to her.
She's been so mean to Cho Hee since the first time they met.
She brought this upon herself.
Totally. What goes around comes around.
Goodness. I can't talk to you.
Mom! Open up.
Nam Gu is not your only son. You have me too!
Mom!
Even if Nam Gu neglects you, I'll take care of you.
Don't be so angry, please. Open this door.
Mom!
Hey, where's Mom?
Mom!
She's in her room.
- What? - Mother.
She locked the door.
She did?
Mom! Open up!
Mom.
Mom!
Mom, let me explain.
Open the door, Mom!
I have two sons, but it's all pointless.
After all, I'm alone in this thing called life.
I'm all alone.
Gosh, this is crazy.
Nam Gu, did you mean what you said earlier?
What?
You said you'd ditch Mom and choose Cho Hee. Did you mean it?
Goodness, forget it. I have no energy to argue with you.
What is it? Where are you going?
Mother hasn't had a sip of water for hours.
We should try to talk to her again.
Hey, Ri An.
Grandma. It's me, Ri An.
Let me in, please.
Grandma.
- Mom! - Mother.
Mom.
I'm sorry, Ri An. I'm not feeling too well.
Still, you need to eat something...
so you can take your medicine and feel better.
You're right. You're the only one who cares about me, Ri An.
I'll fix you some dinner quickly. You can wait in your room, Mother.
Forget it. Don't mind me.
But...
Mom.
(Sisters Side Dish)
Bo Ri, try calling Cho Hee.
Leave her be. She has a lot to deal with right now.
She should leave her alone now, right?
Jang Geum, stop worrying about Cho Hee.
Let that family deal with their own problems.
I'm sure Cho Hee will make wise decisions.
I agree. Nam Gu will protect her.
Ms. Oh.
Hi, Sun Hae.
Hey, Sun Hae. I heard you weren't feeling well.
Are you okay now?
Yes. Thanks to you, I feel much better now.
By the way, did something happen?
Professor Kang is on sick leave.
Is he ill?
No, he had a minor fender-bender.
But he's okay now. He's almost recovered.
I'm glad to hear that. I was worried.
Anyway, what brings you by? We weren't expecting you.
And Kang Rim isn't home right now.
Hey.
Oh, I'm not here to see Kang Rim.
I ran out of the side dishes, so I'm here to get some.
Then give me a minute. I'll pack you some.
Sun Hae, don't you like spicy dried radish?
Yes. Thank you, Auntie.
No problem.
You know,
the time when Kang Rim didn't come home...
What?
Bo Ri.
Go upstairs.
Why? I haven't seen Sun Hae in a while.
Hey, Kang Rim...
Go upstairs, now.
You don't even let me talk.
Fine. I'll keep my mouth zipped.
Zipped. Happy now?
(Our side dishes are made daily.)
Ms. Oh, are you not feeling well today?
You look a bit pale.
No, thank you for your concern.
So you're okay now, right?
Yes, I'm totally fine now.
Seeing the two of you together makes me happy.
Really, Auntie?
Right.
- Don't forget this. - Right, take this.
- Thank you. - The spicy dried radish.
Thank you so much.
- This looks so good. - Do you need anything else?
This is enough. Your food tastes great.
You should charge her for the extras.
Yes, you should.
Even between friends, money is money.
You know what I mean?
Gosh, stop joking.
Hey, Kang Rim.
What are you doing here?
I saw you and my mom...
talking so fondly at her store.
You did?
I didn't want to interrupt your chat.
You two seemed to be really enjoying your conversation.
I didn't go there to see you.
I know. You would've come to my office if that was the case.
Do you have some time next week?
Next week?
Why?
If you have some time, let's go to the movies together.
How could you leave the hospital without even telling me?
You even took the doctor's certificate.
I was panicking at the hospital.
Hey, how many times must I tell you?
Something important came up.
You suddenly had to meet someone in Seoul?
Who did you meet?
Why are you interrogating me?
Do you think I came all the way...
to Seoul with Jun to put up with your nagging?
Look at this tiny, run-down apartment.
Anyway, I need you to look after Jun for a few hours, Mom.
I have my shift at the dry cleaner's.
Make sure Jun takes his medicine when he wakes up.
Come back before he wakes up.
I have to go out when something else comes up.
If you have cash on you now, leave some for me.
Mom.
Come on. This is so unlike you.
You know that Nam Gu would never ditch you.
Mom.
I want to talk to you about something.
You are very important to me as well.
You know I didn't mean it that way.
Hey, it's not the right time yet. She's still angry at you.
Get out.
No, don't.
Mom.
Mom, please.
Don't worry too much.
She's still upset, but she won't be as angry tomorrow.
Right?
Your hand feels so warm today.
Only good things will happen to us from now on,
so let's just get through this together.
Cho Hee, thank you so much for taking my side.
Mother, I fixed breakfast for you. Make sure you have some food.
See you later, Mom.
I'm off to school, Grandma.
I made some ginger tea as well. Make sure you have some, okay?
See you later.
Let's go.
Okay.
Let's go.
They can eat it all they want. Why pretend to care about me?
I won't put up with this anymore.
Na Sun Duk, you need to earn money.
I'll earn money so I can boast about it.
What brings you here so early?
Pa Ran, I can't support myself...
by picking up part-time gigs here and there.
Okay, so?
I need to find something I can do on a regular basis.
Can you help me?
You want my help?
Yes, help me find a job I can do on a regular basis.
I'll think about it.
Good morning, everyone.
Ms. Seo, you're back.
Are you okay?
Of course, I'm okay.
We thought something else happened.
Something else? What do you mean?
Oh, it's nothing.
Right. Eui Kyung, spare me a minute.
Sorry?
Here, have some.
Ms. Seo.
You've already missed your chance once.
You know that, right?
Yes, I'm sorry.
You'll have to work twice as hard...
if you want to regain my trust.
I'm aware.
By the way, did your mother-in-law say anything?
She seemed shocked.
She'll come to understand everything with time.
Get back to work.
Okay.
Hello, Director.
At the academy?
Sure, I'll be there.
I wonder what's going on now.
A janitorial staffing agency is looking to fill a position urgently.
They want to meet you at the building you'll be cleaning.
Good luck on your interview.
Easy-peasy.
They'll hire me on the spot.
Granny, where do you need to go?
Gosh, you scared me.
(Parking Attendant)
Hold on. Do you know me? Why are you calling me a granny?
I'm here for an interview, Grandpa.
An interview? For what?
It's none of your business.
Move aside, will you?
Must you block the cars and look in the mirror right here?
- That's why I asked you. - My goodness.
What is wrong with you?
Move! There's a car coming out.
You could've said it nicely. You didn't have to yell!
Goodness. She's one feisty lady.
(Resume)
But you have no experience whatsoever.
I've been a stay-at-home mom for 40 years. Isn't that enough?
I've been cleaning my house for 40 years.
What more do you need?
You won't suddenly have problems...
with your shoulders or your knee cartilage, right?
Should we be worried about that?
No, of course not.
I can assure you. I'm very healthy.
Should we be worried about you suddenly quitting...
because of some family matters?
Well, I have no family. I live alone.
Oh, really? That must be hard.
(Bangsu Construction)
My gosh.
So? Did your interview go well?
Why do you want to know that?
I'm curious because I'd see you every day if it did go well.
Of course, they don't want to lose a talented worker like me.
Clearly, they hired me.
Take good care of the building.
You're not allowed to eat food on the stairs or in the hallways.
Don't throw toilet paper in the toilet.
And up to the third floor, take the stairs.
You're talking as though you own this building or something.
Look, I got hired as a cleaner.
Of course, I'll take great care of the building.
Don't you worry.
(Parking Attendant)
As a cleaner?
Could you at least tell me who the winners are?
I see. Okay, thank you.
What did they say?
They'll announce the results tomorrow.
Then just wait.
Ye Na's mom kept on bragging earlier today.
Ye Na thinks she only got 1 or 2 questions wrong.
Does it mean Ye Na came in first place?
I was hoping Ri An would beat her.
Honey, have you really lost your mind?
Or are you just determined to make me angry?
No, I just don't want Sa Rang to be disappointed.
Enough is enough, okay?
That brat, Ri An...
Really? Ri An did?
Congratulations.
She came in first place with a perfect score.
The results will be announced tomorrow,
but I wanted you to be the first to know.
My gosh. Great job, Ri An. I'm so proud of you.
Everyone knows how difficult our contest is.
Ri An is the first one to get a perfect score.
We'll waive your fees for the next six months.
Think of it as a scholarship.
And Ri An will participate...
in the upcoming nationwide English contest...
organized by Hankook University,
representing the academy.
Ri An, this is such great news.
What's wrong? Are you not happy?
Ms. Seo, I was rude to you last time.
Please forgive me.
Please don't worry about it.
But I'm not sure...
if Ri An really wants to participate in the contest.
Ma'am.
Yes, Ri An.
I...
don't want to...
represent the academy in the contest.
And...
I want to stop taking classes here.
Ri An.
Mom, transfer me to a different academy.
I want to go back to the academy in Myeongjin-dong.
(The All-Round Wife)
So you're starting tomorrow?
Is everything separated properly?
Must you nag me all the time?
We must earn Mother's forgiveness before it's too late.
- Forget it. - Mother.
Cho Hee must be so stressed out.
Let them figure it out.
This is why you're still single and can't even date.
You wanted to go to the movies with me. Can we go now?
