(Episode 64)
Back in the day,
we dressed our kids in whatever clothes we could get our hands on.
But the kids' clothing these days is absolutely adorable.
- Have some tea, sir. - Thanks.
Ms. An.
Do you know the name of Baby Chick's daughter?
Her name is Mi Ri Nae.
I don't know who came up with it, but it's such a pretty name.
Her eyes...
sparkle like the stars in the sky.
Sir.
I have something to tell you.
It's about Baby Chick. I mean, Yeong I.
She's my neighbor.
Is that right?
Not just a neighbor.
Yeong I and my kids grew up together...
and have been friends for over 20 years.
She and my daughter are the same age. They're best friends.
My goodness. I always knew that you were very discreet,
but I can't believe you kept it from me all this time.
I didn't think it was my place to step in.
I was always rooting for her...
and was grateful to you for helping her.
But I thought I should tell you now.
Kyung Jun and Yeong I are seeing each other, right?
Yes.
But her family doesn't know about their relationship yet, right?
Right, they probably don't know yet.
It's not something Yeong I can bring up easily.
Goodness. Then I suppose...
I shouldn't visit the restaurant for a little while.
Anyway, what's the matter?
You seem incredibly worried. What's wrong?
Did your kids do something to upset you? That can't be.
I, too, never thought my children...
would do something to upset me.
Even though they grew up without a father,
they always worked hard and took good care of themselves.
But...
it's not as easy as I thought.
I guess the girl your son likes...
doesn't meet your expectations.
Well...
I wouldn't put it that way, but...
Ms. An.
Don't fight with your kids.
Parents are bound to lose anyway.
If you hurt them while fighting,
you'll get it all back...
and regret it for the rest of your life.
You're right, sir.
I'm...
already hurting.
Here's your prescription.
It's quite common to develop a fever at night after getting the flu shot.
It'll go away in a day or two,
so don't worry.
He should avoid taking a shower today.
Got it. Thank you, doctor.
Here, Soo Min.
You bravely got the shot today. I'm very proud of you. Bye.
Thank you.
Bye.
(Eun Ho Pediatric Clinic)
Do Young, it's lunchtime. You should go have lunch.
- What about you? - I'm not hungry.
By the way, did you know?
Yeong I's got a boyfriend.
He's tall and handsome. His grandpa owns a big company.
Well, a pediatrician is a good catch too.
But you're no match for him.
Do Young, how did you find out?
Did Yeong I tell you herself?
My gosh. So you knew?
Yet you went ahead and confessed your feelings?
What? I yelled at you, but you didn't even tell me.
Yesterday, my family had quite the night.
My parents saw Yeong I's rich boyfriend...
walking her and Mi Ri Nae home.
So everyone in the family now knows, except for Grandma.
So? What did Yeong I say?
Well, she can't dare to say anything.
Why not? She did nothing wrong.
She has the right to date someone she likes.
What? Oh, well...
That is true.
But in any case, she deceived the family.
She was secretly seeing someone but told us nothing.
My mom told me...
that Do Sik tried to cover up for her because he knew everything.
I bet she talked about how she lent him money...
and threatened Do Sik.
Do Young, stay out of it. Don't say anything to her,
or I'll resent you.
I didn't say anything. Believe me, Eun Ho!
Wait...
What? Who is he to resent me?
Hang on.
This means Yeong I and Eun Ho can't be a couple.
I lashed out at him because I had no idea.
I should've waited a few days.
Hey, this is considered an obstruction of business.
Go to the sauna or something.
Why are you unpacking here?
My dad packed my things for me and told me to stay with you.
I don't believe you.
He really did.
We slept together, didn't we?
Stop nagging me, okay?
Do you think I came here because I have no pride?
That's right. You've got nothing.
I bet you don't even have 20 dollars on you right now.
I can bet my cafe on it.
You're a genius. How did you know?
I only have 13 dollars right now.
Eun Jin.
I'm broke.
And you're right. I have no pride.
All I've got are my good looks...
and the... You know, that ability of mine.
That's all I've got. You know me.
So just let me stay here for a few days.
I'll work hard to return the favor.
You crazy little...
Hey, I was just kidding. Seriously.
You have a lot to do before your grand opening anyway.
I'll work hard to help you.
So how's your mom?
She's on hunger strike again, isn't she?
Yes, she is.
And I added fuel to the fire.
Anyway, why are you asking about my mom?
I'm surprised you're not asking about Yeong I first.
Well, just because.
I must say, my mom was out of line.
She called him to the restaurant, threw water on him,
humiliated Yeong I in front of him, and hit her.
She totally overreacted.
I mean, what if they break up?
It's understandable, if you try to put yourself in your mom's shoes.
She probably feels betrayed.
Hey, I'm surprised that you're taking my mom's side.
It looks like we've switched stances in the last few days.
But I have to say...
I kind of like him.
Hey, I found out that his grandfather owns a big company.
Gosh, you're so materialistic.
So what? You think you can benefit from it somehow?
They'll be our family.
As if. You're like a stranger to them.
No, we're family.
I know Yeong I will never ditch us.
I know we're not related by blood, but we're still family...
because of Mi Ri Nae.
Why don't you be consistent and continue to disapprove of him?
That'd be a more normal thing to do.
Hey, do you have a sleeping bag?
As for the food ingredients, we'll just keep what we need...
and throw out the rest.
As for you, Yeong I,
Director Jang and I will discuss how to reprimand you.
Your intern evaluation score will drop significantly.
Then naturally, it'll be hard for you to get a permanent position.
Yes, I'm aware.
Ms. Kim, but it'd be such a waste to throw out everything.
If you give me some time,
I'll find a solution no matter what...
Find a solution? How? You're a mere intern.
It's 100 times bigger than our normal order.
How will you pull this off?
That's...
I'll find a solution. There must be a way...
Look at you running your mouth again when you don't even have a plan.
She always finds good solutions,
so please trust her and wait.
I agree with Kyung Jun, Ms. Kim.
She wants to take responsibility for her own mistake.
Why stop her?
But you'll have to find a solution while the produce is still fresh.
Well, we all know that the company suffered losses because of you.
Suit yourself, then.
(Branch Manager Kim Chang Yi)
Hello, sir.
Hey, is Mr. Yoon not in the office yet?
Mr. Yoon is on vacation for a week.
He's on vacation?
But he didn't tell me anything.
Anyway, okay.
What is he thinking, taking a vacation...
right before we find out the loan deadline extension results?
Honey!
Why did you buy so much stuff?
I wouldn't complain if I bought them myself.
They came for you.
They must be year-end gifts.
I called you because you'd yell at me again if I just accepted them.
Why didn't you answer your phone?
I brought them here, without even opening them.
Good.
How do they know our home address? They keep sending stuff.
This is from a women's clothing brand.
It's popular among women around my age.
And this one is...
It's a scarf. Kyung Jun's mother owns one from this brand too.
You said you didn't open them.
Come on. I can't even see what's inside?
I didn't want to disrespect their kind gesture.
You know, honey?
Forget it. Just leave them here.
Come on, honey.
Go buy yourself the same thing. I'll buy it for you.
Really?
Don't tell me to return it when you see the price later!
Thank you.
Oh, right. You canceled the blind date, right?
Hae Mi won't be there.
I refuse to send Hae Mi there.
So you have to cancel it.
I can't cancel it.
Well, then I guess I have no choice.
I'll meet him, then.
What?
What mother goes on a blind date instead of her daughter?
What I mean is... I'll pretend I'm Hae Mi.
You may not know this, but your wife here...
If I put on makeup and wear a nice dress,
everyone thinks I'm a single woman in her 30s.
Of course, with the help of good lighting!
With the inflation and prices going up,
the sales of our lunchboxes are on the rise again, right?
The problem is that other companies' sales are going up too.
We must take the number one spot again as soon as possible.
Let's hope that the interns will come up with some good ideas...
during their second competition.
Come in.
- Yes. - What?
Ms. Kim, what brings you here?
There's something I must report to you.
Okay, take a seat.
Director Jang said we should get it sorted out on our own.
He told me not to tell you,
but it's a big problem. So I came here to tell you.
What is it? You look so serious right now.
Did someone start a fire again?
No, it's not that.
Yeong I caused big trouble again.
She was in charge of ordering food ingredients.
She mistakenly multiplied the quantities by 100,
so we suffered huge losses.
We're trying to find a solution at the moment,
but she keeps feigning ignorance and says she didn't do it.
I don't know what to do.
She bluffed in front of me and said she'd get a permanent position...
and keep Kyung Jun too.
I can't believe she did this.
She should quit voluntarily.
Yeong I said she wouldn't give up on either of them?
Ms. Kim, you must've been very stressed out all by yourself.
I have to say,
she's really something.
I don't know if I can say this, knowing she's your cousin-in-law.
But how did your cousin even end up marrying such a horrible person?
Right, his parents strongly disapproved of her at first.
I'm not surprised.
You said your cousin went to med school.
His parents must've had high hopes for him.
She's so sly and calculating. She should know her place.
She now has Kyung Jun wrapped around her little finger.
(CEO Office)
What are you doing here?
Oh, I was just...
Come to my office.
How much did we lose?
I bet it's a lot more than Yeong I's monthly salary.
In total, we lost 7,349. 22 dollars.
Oh, my. You tallied it up very quickly,
as if you saw it coming.
You're suspicious of me?
Yes, I am.
Director Jang.
You're the only person who'd do such a childish thing.
Let's be honest.
Let's say she entered all the quantities wrong.
But nothing would've happened had you double-checked the order.
You're very thorough and double-check everything.
It'd be weirder to believe...
that you unintentionally forgot to double-check the order.
I should get back to my office.
What do you get out of this?
I told you.
If I can't have him, Yeong I can't have him either.
The blind date this weekend.
Make sure you meet him.
If it doesn't work out, go on another blind date next weekend.
The following weekend too.
Until you find someone.
Only then will this end.
Grandpa.
Yes, you're already here.
Sit here.
Okay.
So this is your best friend's cafe?
Where is your friend?
It hasn't had its grand opening yet,
so she was busy all day trying to get ready for it.
- She just stepped out for dinner. - I see.
On my way here, I noticed that it's such a great location.
It'll do well.
Gosh, you have such a good eye.
I'll let her know.
Oh, stop it.
Here, it's for Mi Ri Nae.
There are clothes, dolls, and toys.
You wanted to meet today to give me these?
You bought so much stuff.
I didn't buy more things because I knew you'd nag me.
If I could, I'd go shopping with Mi Ri Nae...
and buy her everything she wants.
Thank you.
She'll be so happy to hear that you bought these things for her.
Yes.
I wish you brought her along. Too bad.
Next time, let me see her.
Yes, I'll be sure to bring her along.
Baby Chick.
Everyone's heart...
has a little empty corner.
The cold wind blows through that corner.
To you,
your in-laws must be that empty corner in your heart.
I do not know how much time I have left to live,
but until the day I die,
I will shield you from the wind.
Thank you, Grandpa.
Even just hearing that warms my heart.
I want to do something to repay your kindness,
but I don't know how to repay you anymore.
When I thought you were just a bottle collector,
I felt bad for you and always wanted to give you things.
But now, I feel like you have everything you need.
Do I look like I don't need anything?
Yes.
As you age,
your life becomes a battle.
A battle?
A battle against loneliness.
Oh, I see.
You get so excited when someone wants to have a meal with you.
You feel grateful when someone asks you if you've eaten.
That's right.
When someone greets me,
I prefer to hear "Have you eaten yet?" over "Hello."
Being curious whether someone has eaten or not...
means you want to keep that person in your life for a long time.
Such sincere words...
can reach deeper places in your heart.
I should ask you that question more often then.
Right, meals.
What?
Grandpa, I have to go to the office.
What? At this hour?
Thanks to you, I thought of something I had to do tonight.
Thank you. I have to go.
- Hey, wait. - Get home safely!
Be careful not to fall!
Goodness.
Where is Kyung Jun?
He'll come down later.
I heard Lee Yeong I caused trouble again.
I wouldn't call it "trouble."
It was a mistake.
One you can make when you're eager to do well.
Don't try to cover up for her.
I'm watching her too.
Anyway, where is Mom?
She's in the kitchen.
Ms. An wasn't feeling well. She went home early today.
I see.
Oh, right. Uncle Won Sub called me this morning.
What? Won Sub called you?
That little... I haven't heard from him in years.
Honey, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
Yes, it slipped out of my hands. I'm fine.
- No! - Sit down. I got it.
- Okay. - Sit down, honey. We got this.
Why did he call you?
Uncle Won Sub?
I think he just called to say hi. He didn't say anything else.
Oh, we're supposed to meet soon.
Should I invite him over?
It'd be nice to see him together. Father is excited to see him too.
Yes, that's a good idea.
He has a new number, right? Send me his number.
Do we really have to meet him?
- What? - I'm talking about Sim Won Sub.
He left even though we were so good to him.
Who knows what he's really after?
It sounds dangerous.
Goodness. Your mother is such a careful person.
Won Sub would never do such a thing.
He probably reminisced about the old days and realized he missed us.
And as you know, he absolutely adored Se Jun.
Exactly.
That's what worries me.
Because he adored Se Jun,
it's easier for him to approach Se Jun first.
He would've called you first if he didn't have an ulterior motive.
Se Jun, don't meet him.
What? But...
- You're back. - You're back.
Yes, hi.
Grandpa, you're back.
It's cold outside. Where did you have to go?
I was just out for a walk.
Father, how about a hot cup of tea to warm you up?
No need. I drank a lot of tea.
Were you with your friend, Gab Sung?
No.
I went to see my great-grandkid but couldn't see her.
Your great-grandkid?
You mean, Mi Ri Nae?
She's so adorable. I really wanted to see her,
so I went to drop off the clothes I bought for her.
But I only got to see Yeong I.
Oh, no. Had I known, I would've come with you.
Seeing how she didn't call you, I guess she likes me more.
Hold on. Why are you here?
Sorry? Me?
I just got home from work.
Baby Chick rushed back to the office saying something urgent came up.
Yeong I did?
You're both interns,
but it seems like she works way harder than you do.
Grandpa, I'm going back to the office too.
I should do more work.
That rascal.
They're in the lovey-dovey phase now.
Honey, are you all right?
Maybe you're too overworked.
No, I'm not.
I know why you're worried,
but we should invite Won Sub over.
He's like family to us, you know.
If we invite him to our place,
what you're worrying about won't happen.
To be honest, I feel like I'm hugely indebted to Won Sub.
I met you thanks to him.
Yes, I'll think about it.
I can't believe you came back here alone.
You should've called me.
Kyung Jun, what are you doing here?
Oh, Grandpa must've told you.
What should I do first?
I'm not a good cook, but I'm a great assistant.
Well...
Prepare the cabbage then.
Cut it in half. Then cut it once more.
After that, chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Then rinse them using the sieve.
Have you managed to come up with a good idea?
Yes, I'm making a lunchbox.
A lunchbox?
Yes, for seniors who live alone.
Kyung Jun, did you know?
Seniors prefer to hear...
"Have you eaten?" over "Hello" when someone greets them.
Oh, I see.
To be honest, I feel the same way.
It's heartwarming to hear that someone cares whether I've eaten.
If we call the welfare department at the borough office in the morning,
we should be able to serve it at lunchtime.
I knew it.
I knew you'd come up with something.
Let's stay up all night and do this.
We got this.
We did it!
Done!
I'm sorry, Kyung Jun.
You had to do so much work because of me.
I enjoyed it.
Come on.
What's enjoyable about doing so much work?
Everything about it.
If I can spend time with you,
I'm happy to do anything.
You can't run a business.
Why not?
You enjoy doing things for others too much. That's why.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I'm only like this with you.
I'm ruthless when I'm dealing with other people.
Okay, sure. Thanks for being so nice to me.
(The Love in Your Eyes)
Yeong I didn't come home again?
Mom didn't come home last night, Grandma.
I slept alone because I'm a big girl now.
Yeong I is the one who's most stressed out right now.
She can't be all happy now.
Your parents don't support her decision,
and his parents don't approve of her.
She's stressing out right now.
I wouldn't approve of Yeong I even if she didn't have a boyfriend.
After all,
I'm just like any other mother.
Yeong I, I know you're sleepy and tired now.
But spare me just two hours.
I need to take you somewhere.
