(Episode 27)
- I said I didn't want it. - Here.
Hey. You don't have to do this.
Oh, my.
You said it was five dollars, right?
You really don't have to do this.
I'm giving you this to cheer you up as your work colleague.
So don't feel burdened.
If you say so.
Thank you.
It's pretty.
Oh, and this.
This is yours. You left it in the staff lounge.
Thank you for this as well.
Put it on. I'm sure you'll look great.
Right. Okay.
I'll try it on at home.
Put it on now. Give it to me.
How do I look? Do I look okay?
Well, what do I know? I'm a guy.
Oh, check yourself in the mirror.
It's pretty.
Have a good night.
Let's go.
You like it so much.
Why weren't you going to buy it?
It felt like a waste of money.
I don't like spending money on myself. It feels wasteful.
And I'm not used to it.
Then whom do you spend your money on?
I saw your family member on the bridge that day.
Do you spend all your money on your family?
Can we drop this? Even just thinking about it makes me upset.
Even if they're your family, you can't always...
expect them to behave the way you want them to.
From time to time,
be a little selfish and take care of yourself.
Okay.
Thanks so much, Mr. 10,000 Dollars.
To tell you the truth, I wanted to buy it.
I'll treasure this.
It wasn't even expensive.
Don't treasure it. Wear it all the time.
If it breaks, I'll buy you another one.
Oh, really?
- Click on the animations tab here. - Okay.
Then drag it like this.
Yes, that's it.
- Like this? - Yes, well done.
Put it here. You can change the order using this.
I see. Okay.
By the way, how did the family meeting go?
My mother-in-law is on a hunger strike.
It won't be resolved easily.
Then what about your money?
Grandma got the money together...
to pay me back first.
Really? That's a relief.
But I told her that the gesture was enough.
Why did you do that? You should've just accepted it.
I know how hard she had to work to save that much money.
How could I accept it?
But you know...
Eun Ho, I'm truly grateful to Grandma.
I hope she stays healthy and strong for many more years to come.
I know.
Oh, right. After my mother saw me playing with Mi Ri Nae,
she started pressuring me to get married.
Hey, seriously. You should date.
Your clinic is up and running now.
Besides, you're popular among women.
That doesn't matter.
I want to date someone I like.
And is there someone?
You think I'd have no one?
What? There is? For real? Who is it?
Tell me.
Well, I don't want to.
Why not? I won't tell anyone. Come on. Who is it?
When you land a permanent position.
For now, you should study. Here.
What? You asked him out on a date too?
You picked the place too.
Are you sure that Kyung Jun is interested in you?
I know him well.
He wouldn't even speak to people he was not comfortable with.
He's just really busy these days because of the intern competition.
When I asked him out to dinner, he said yes right away.
It means he likes me.
But it's not the weekend.
You'll have dinner and come straight home.
It wasn't easy to snag this opportunity, Mom.
Mom, I think...
this necklace the VP gave me is bringing me good luck.
Why?
As soon as I got this necklace...
Shall I say Kyung Jun's attitude toward me changed a little?
Anyway, that's how I feel.
Really?
Hey, you should wear that necklace every day.
No, I'll treasure this so I can become her daughter-in-law...
and wear it for the rest of my life.
My gosh! You, smarty-pants.
Oh, Dad.
You're home.
Yes.
I thought about it for days.
What?
The choice is yours.
Don't tell me...
you're actually going to live with Mother.
Is that what you're most afraid of?
I didn't know.
Thanks for the information.
Here's what you have to decide.
Go to Mother and tell her that she can keep the 100,000 dollars,
or...
Or what?
You can only use the card for our basic living expenses.
I'll freeze the other cards.
Basic living expenses? How much...
What's the limit?
If you're curious, look up...
the average living expenses of three-person households.
If you wish to maintain the quality of life...
you've been enjoying,
do as I say and go visit Mother.
The choice is yours.
Hey, look it up. What's the average?
It's around 3,000 dollars.
Oh, am I wrong?
What?
Hey, Kim Chang...
Honey!
I can't believe this.
You expect me to live on 3,000 dollars a month?
Don't you know who your wife is? I'm Seo Hwa Kyung!
- It's not enough? - Of course, it's not!
Then get a job and earn money.
Wow! I can't believe this!
Hey, Kim Chang Yi!
Nice catch.
You jerk!
(Work Log)
It's just a hairpin.
Hey, you're already in bed?
I have a meeting early tomorrow morning. What's up?
The rival company's CEO texted me...
to ask me how I was doing...
and said they wanted to take me out for dinner.
What do you think that means?
They're provoking me. How childish.
Must I get a text message like that?
Just ignore them.
No. I'll go and enjoy the dinner to the fullest.
However, you must make sure...
I can buy them a more expensive meal in the near future.
Why are you all quiet?
What is it? You don't feel confident?
Sometime early next year.
Good. Sweet dreams, son.
Seven times one equals four.
Seven times two equals eleven.
Seven times three equals eighteen.
Seven times four equals twenty-five.
Seven times five equals thirty-two.
About High Heels...
Yes, Father.
Tell her not to go upstairs...
after Se Jun gets home from work.
Why?
If your boss followed you to your bedroom...
and kept talking about work,
would you like that?
Oh, right.
But to be honest, it's quite confusing at times.
What do you mean?
I can't tell if she's going upstairs as Se Jun's mother...
or as the VP of the company.
Are you worried about whether or not the clouds are carrying rain?
Be an umbrella that keeps your children safe.
Both Kyung Jun and Se Jun.
Yes, I'll remember that.
Father.
Would you like to play Go with me? It's been a while.
Sure, sounds good.
Then I'll go get the board.
No, you can sit down. I'll go get it.
Well...
You're already standing up, so you can go get it.
Yes, Father.
Are you that dense?
Sorry?
Do you think she asked me to play Go with her because she's bored?
Leave her be.
I think she wants to snoop around in my room.
I see.
- Oh, come in. - Come in.
Mother, where is Mi Ri Nae?
What?
She's asleep in Grandma's room.
You picked it up, right?
Oh, yes.
You haven't eaten anything all day?
I'm about to faint.
Slow down, Mom.
Don't talk to me.
This is like a binge-eating strike, not a hunger strike.
Eating so much food at once after starving all day...
You two. If you tell the others, I won't forgive you.
Don't worry.
Eat slowly. Make sure you chew well.
Yeong I, what's with the hairpin?
What? Oh, this.
They were selling this in front of the office.
What's gotten into you? You never spend money on these things.
It's pretty.
Is it?
Yes.
Did you sleep well?
Don't talk to me, okay? I have no energy left.
Wait, hold on.
This must be...
from a red bean bun.
What?
And this is...
You had a cream bun too, didn't you?
My gosh!
Oh, boy. Hey.
There's no such thing as a perfect crime.
You're so clumsy.
Who picked them up for you?
Yeong I.
I was going to pick up something for you if you skipped another meal.
Liar.
Honey.
About Do Sik's apartment...
I gave the notice to end the lease yesterday. I'll go clean it today.
Must you...
really do this?
I called to check in on you because I was so worried.
Sweetheart.
Hwa Kyung.
I'm so upset, Mother.
How dare he tell me to get a job and earn money?
I know.
All your life, you've never had to lift a finger.
Where would you go to get a job and earn money at that age?
That must've really hurt your feelings.
Why did I get married and decide to become...
a stay-at-home mom when I graduated from such a good school?
He told me...
to just raise our daughter well.
He said, "I'll earn money." I totally believed him.
So I took great care of him...
and poured my heart and soul into raising...
I poured my heart and soul into raising Hae Mi well.
Yes, of course. I know.
Let me apologize on his behalf.
Don't worry about the family.
Yes. I'll have a word with Chang Yi. Okay?
Did you have breakfast?
Goodness.
Stop crying.
If you keep crying, you'll get a headache.
All right. Bye.
Okay.
Mother.
I...
I'd like to talk to you about something.
I need to talk to you too.
- Come to my room. - Sorry?
Not you. Just Eun Sook.
Oh, okay.
I told Chang Il to terminate the lease.
Will you argue with me about it?
No, it's not that.
Mother.
The money that Chang Yi gave me.
I can't return it to him.
I don't want to.
Are you saying you will disobey your mother-in-law?
I'm sorry, Mother.
You see, Chang Yi and I made a deal.
That's why he gave me the money.
We said we'd help each other out in difficult times.
- Eun Sook. - Mother.
Do Sik...
I must make sure he passes the exam so he can get into medical school.
That's my number one priority right now.
So you will drive a wedge between Dr. Kim and his wife...
just so that your son can study in medical school?
Not a day goes by without trouble because of you!
All you talk about is "Dr. Kim."
You keep taking Chang Yi and Hwa Kyung's side.
This isn't fair.
Your eldest son and daughter-in-law are the ones...
who have been serving you for decades!
Why don't you think of us at all?
Eun Sook.
The yellow sea bream too, Mother!
You gave all three to them.
If you like your younger son and daughter-in-law that much,
go live with them!
What's the matter with you?
Eun Sook.
Is that what you've been thinking all this time?
Have you been trying to figure out a way to make me go live with them?
I'm sorry, Mother. She's not in her right mind now.
Honey, get out. Go!
Mother. I'm being like this...
because I'm so worried about Do Sik.
You know that he's my only son...
now that I've lost Do Jin.
I must make sure everything goes well for him. Only then can I live!
Okay, so Do Jin and Do Sik are your sons. But what about me?
Are they not my grandsons?
Calm down, Mother.
Hey, let's go. Come on!
Go.
Go!
We should just put the food away. Right, Yeong I?
I'm sorry.
I must've been out of my mind for a moment, honey.
Grandma.
Yes.
Are you going to work?
You should have breakfast.
I'll eat later.
Don't be too upset, Grandma.
That too, just leave me be.
Okay.
I'll see you later.
The yellow sea bream too, Mother!
You gave all three to them.
If you like your younger son and daughter-in-law that much,
go live with them!
All right.
- Hello, Director Jang. - Ms. Lee.
- Oh, hold on. - Yes?
It actually worked.
What are you talking about?
The nonsense times table.
Oh, I'm glad. How far did you go?
I started with the 7 times table and fell asleep at 15.
Thank you.
My gosh, you're very smart. Wait, Director Jang.
Next time, try to recite the tables backward.
- What? - It'll help you fall asleep faster.
I'm speaking from experience. Anyway, good luck.
She taught me the nonsense times table.
Now, recite them backward?
Eun Jin said I should come...
and kneel with her if she touched her nose.
I'm right here, Eun Jin.
You can do it, Eun Jin!
Thank you for coming, Dan Chu.
You must've been stressed out. You look weary.
I truly regret what happened.
I'm really sorry.
Please forgive me.
Look up, Kang Eun Jin.
The two of us have been working together for over five years.
Well, I do admit that we never really got along.
But there's trust that's been built up over the years.
I sure know how much you care about your juniors...
because I'm your senior too.
Dan Chu.
But when you work in an organization...
The higher-ups hounded me to bury it.
What was I supposed to do?
The thought of losing my job terrified me.
I won't sue you, so don't worry.
Really?
No!
Dan Chu, you really won't sue me?
Do you not trust anyone?
I'm already so embarrassed that you punched me.
Why would I bother suing you?
Thank you, Dan Chu.
Thank you. Thank you so much!
- Thank you! - Thank you!
I overheard people talking on my way to the restroom earlier.
One team is working on a hangover drink with honey.
The other team is... Right, they're making black sugar milk.
Beverages with black sugar aren't so popular anymore.
- Oh. - What's that?
A fruit fly, probably.
What? You're just going to eat that?
Why not?
I heard we naturally inhale dozens of bugs a day.
I'll just think of it as extra protein.
Who told you that? The guy you know?
He is a guy I know.
But a different one.
Isn't it prettier, the more you see it?
Yes, sure.
Ms. Kim.
Are you going out for dinner after work?
- Why do you ask? - Your style looks a bit different.
You look even more gorgeous today.
Do I? Well, I do have some important plans.
You must have a date.
My gosh, Ms. Im. You and your gut instincts.
I didn't say anything.
Did you have a good lunch?
Everyone on the team is incredibly quick-witted.
- What happened? - They said my style changed...
and asked me if I had a date tonight.
A date? Come on.
What? It is a date.
I didn't bring my car today.
We'll take your car, and you'll have to drive me home.
Take a taxi. I'll give you money for your fare.
Stop cracking jokes. I'm serious right now.
That won't help you come up with ideas.
It'll only kill your brain cells.
Was I always this dumb?
Gosh, this won't do. I should go ask someone or something.
You're pretty good now.
Why are you still going for six points?
Make it four.
You told me to always be humble.
I should stay at six.
Goodness.
Baby Chick?
Hi, what is it?
Sir, are you busy right now?
- Yes, I am. - Sir.
Is there a specific kind of beverage you want?
Not soy milk.
My goodness.
Is there a specific kind of beverage you're craving? Excluding soy milk.
I like rice punch and cinnamon punch, sir.
Baby Chick, how about rice punch or cinnamon punch?
We already have rice punch.
Cinnamon punch... Anything else?
Don't you think you're asking too much of me?
But my team's situation is...
I feel totally stuck, sir.
If you can't figure out what to do,
just scrap it.
Sorry?
Start over from scratch.
Flip it upside down and think about it again.
I have to go.
Wait, sir... Bye.
Scrap it and start over?
Come on. It's your turn.
What was the meaning behind it this time?
Meaning, my foot.
It was just something...
I made up without actually thinking.
- What? - I don't always have a solution.
When you're the chairman of the company,
everyone comes to your office to complain, vent,
and ask you for help.
It was just something I said in such a situation.
Scrap it and start over.
Then they'd go flip things around...
and figure out a way to make it work from time to time.
Whether it works out or not,
it's for them to figure out.
Come on. Let's keep playing.
Yes, sir.
- Thank you. Come again. - Will do. Thank you.
Bye. Have a great day.
(So Bok Hee's Tasty Beef Bone Soup)
It's been a while since she went home.
Mother.
Mother, are you in your room?
Mother!
Mother.
The phone is turned off. Please leave a message after...
Honey. Eun Sook!
Eun Sook!
- What is it? - Honey, Eun Sook.
Mother... Mother is...
What about Mother?
Did she collapse?
No. I think Mother...
I think she packed up and left.
- What? - Her closet is empty,
and her suitcase is gone too.
Her cell phone. Have you tried calling her?
It's off!
I think she moved out.
Do you think Mother actually packed up and left?
Gosh, Mother... Where did she go?
Oh, no. Mother... What should we do, honey?
- I don't know. - What do we do?
Gosh, Mother...
(The Love in Your Eyes)
Why isn't she home yet?
Shouldn't we try calling her?
I already did, but she didn't pick up.
I don't know if she's too busy, or if she's screening my calls.
You know, about Hae Mi...
Father is beginning to show interest in Hae Mi, don't you think?
I just hope you can change the way you think of me.
Think of me as a woman, not just a friend.
