(Episode 2)
It hurts. Who are you?
- What is it? - You're still a student,
but you already have sticky fingers.
Who are you?
It hurts.
Where do you go to school? Don't lie to me.
Let go of my arm. It hurts.
We should go to the police...
so that you learn your lesson.
You punk.
Are you all right?
Are you okay?
I asked you that first.
You're right.
Where did he go, by the way?
You should teach kids like him a lesson.
Excuse me.
Why don't you let it go? I found my wallet anyway.
Why?
He already has a bad habit as a kid.
You should tell him off so that he doesn't do it again.
I should get back to work now.
You're busy.
If you report it, I'd have to go to the station,
which is tiring and a waste of time.
I hate things like that.
Okay. I understand.
Thank you, though.
No problem. Bye.
Is there any specific style you want?
Well,
it's for my husband.
The suit you just saw is the latest and the most popular.
I'll look around and come back.
Hey.
- Fancy meeting you again. - I'm glad.
I wanted to ask your number to thank you.
It wasn't a big deal.
Are you picking clothes for your boyfriend?
It's for my husband.
You look so young, but you're already married.
Yes.
If you like this tie, I'll let you get it.
Would you do that for me?
It would go well with this.
Is it for your husband?
No. It's for my boyfriend who I'm considering marrying.
He's your soon-to-be husband.
You two must be so excited.
How about you?
I'm so happy too.
He'll be here soon to look around too.
You do look happy.
Your husband is lucky...
to have a brave, nice wife like you.
I'm flattered.
I was taking a short break, so I have to get back to work.
Can I have your number?
I'll treat you some time.
It's okay.
What I did doesn't really deserve a reward.
But I feel like I owe you.
Come on.
We seem to get along.
Wouldn't it be nice to be friends too?
Friends?
Okay, then.
Honey, are you here?
Where I am is...
It's a store called Luxy.
Come here.
- I'll call you. - Okay.
She's sophisticated.
She has a good eye for neckties.
That means I have a good eye too.
I also want to get him that tie,
but it's too expensive.
Sang Hyuk.
What are you doing here?
That's for me to say.
You came to buy a dress shirt.
That stain was bothering you, right?
I already got a dress shirt for you.
Let's go. I got you a tie too.
He said he was close.
Why isn't he here yet?
You're getting a call.
Hello.
Why aren't you here?
I'll come later.
What? All of a sudden?
You were almost here. Why are you coming later?
Sang Hyuk, why are you so quiet?
Something urgent came up, right?
Yes.
I thought it could be our date after a long time.
Right. You didn't even get off work yet.
I'm hanging up now. See you.
Who was it?
My little sister.
Are you guys going somewhere?
Where are you going later?
A good restaurant.
She probably wants to rip me off.
Are you picking clothes for your boyfriend?
It's for my husband.
I'll get to do this when I get married, right?
You're already doing it.
Is that so?
You look so nice in this.
It looks so good on you.
Thank you for the present.
By the way, I was almost pick-pocketed at the department store,
but a brave woman saved me.
Really? Who was that punk?
Did you let him go?
I hate making a fuss.
She wanted to teach him a lesson too,
but I let him go.
I don't know who she is, but I'm thankful for her.
Right?
I want to treat her someday.
Meet her with me if you have time.
Okay.
You wanted to see if there were any jobs.
Did you end up spending money rather than making it?
I got a dress shirt for him and a T-shirt for you.
Really?
Let me see.
My goodness.
It looks good on you.
Mother, I got it from a department store.
It must be expensive.
His dress shirt and this were too expensive to buy,
but then I saw them on sale on the basement level.
I was so lucky.
I did a good job, didn't I?
Of course. I knew it.
You only buy things on sale.
You learned nothing, raised by your grandmother,
so you don't recognize authentic high-end clothing.
The only thing you see is cheap things.
Mother, they're authentic.
They're just carryovers.
Besides, you seem to love fancy clothing,
but that's overpriced.
They're just ripping us off...
when they can mark it down this much.
Why do you like that?
Are you patronizing your mother-in-law?
How dare you talk back to me?
I'm sorry, Mother.
I wasn't trying to talk back.
Also, my grandma...
didn't raise me wrong enough for you to criticize her.
I hope you don't belittle her again.
Please.
You have to make comments on everything I say.
Just go make lunch.
Okay.
Mom.
She didn't say anything wrong.
You always yell at her for talking back whenever you have nothing to say.
She might hear you.
Mom, who gives her daughter-in-law a hard time these days?
They rather walk on eggshells around their daughters-in-law.
You should know you're lucky...
to have a daughter-in-law like her.
Can't you just shut it now?
Also, it's not true that I gave her a hard time.
Can't a mother-in-law even say something now?
Sang Hyuk is way out of her league,
which is bothering me enough.
You can't yell at me.
I miss Grandma.
You came.
I'm here again.
They love chapssalppang, Ms. Han.
Is that so?
I could afford to raise Sun Hwa...
because I make it delicious.
- Hello. - Have you been well?
- Yes, ma'am. - Sun Hwa's baby must've grown a lot now.
I'm sure he's got the twinkle in his eyes.
Right. I met him a week ago,
and he managed to keep his head up by himself.
Really?
Please have a cup of sujeonggwa before you leave.
It's refreshing.
Hello, ma'am.
Hi. You should try this too.
Your daughter-in-law made it so palatable.
I already had some.
How is Sun Hwa doing?
- She's doing great. - Good.
I thought it'd take forever...
to raise her and marry her off when she was young,
but she already has her own son.
It's so unbelievable.
You must be proud of her.
I heard she set the date of the wedding as well.
It's just a month away.
I want her to have a proper wedding with a bridal veil on.
Or else, it's a bit embarrassing.
Many young guys do that these days, though.
You know, everyone is in a different situation.
I thought she was going to start working after giving birth to the baby.
Her in-laws want her to work too.
She called me and said she's looking for a job.
I see.
Jae Min also seems to be busy looking for a job.
He might come in late today as well.
Right. That's why he's been busy.
(Locker)
Darn it.
Just listen to it once.
- I'm not interested! - Please!
- Don't worry. - Thank you.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
I sent you a recording through an email the other day.
I'm Min.
- Min? - Yes.
You have a nice name.
Thank you.
I didn't know it then
I wasn't even interested
Under the warm sunlight
The time and people
And the past memories
Enough!
Geez.
Why is everyone singing here recently?
Shine beautifully, my youth
Stop!
What do you think you are doing?
I'll take my things and go.
Someone filed a complaint, saying it's too loud.
Dry your tears, my youth
About five years ago,
I sang a drama soundtrack without appearing on TV.
Then, why did you come to me so late?
Well, I have a reason that I can't tell.
There are plenty of idol groups...
and singers debuting every day out there.
Who would remember the singer that sang a song five years ago?
But the song was quite a big hit back then.
And you're too old.
I'll do my best!
Please help me.
You're not a bad singer,
but you're too old to make a fresh debut.
As you can see, I look way younger than my age.
Please just let me sing. I'll prove that your choice was right.
What about singing trot songs?
You know, trot songs are having glory days now.
I'm suggesting this because you have a good voice.
Trot songs?
Hold on.
Visit this place.
(Fox Days Live Cafe, Owner Hong Sang Doo)
Thank you.
Excuse me.
Are you Min?
It's nice to meet you, sir.
I am Min.
What a lame name.
I can't believe people still use it as their stage name.
The producer suggested I sing trot songs, so I came here.
Then, sing.
Sing a trot song.
Trot?
I hardly know any trot songs.
Which song should I sing, then?
Just choose whatever you can sing well.
Okay!
Hey!
Take your sunglasses off first.
I'm sorry,
but it's like my alter ego.
Ego? That's so ridiculous. You're quite fussy.
- Go ahead. - Okay.
(Fox Days Live Cafe)
You're a loose cannon
I'm scared of you, my love
I can't get married as I'm grateful
I'm blinded by my love for you
You belong to me Run to me and fall into my arms
It's amazing.
I can't get married as I'm grateful
I'm blinded by my love for you
You belong to me Run to me and fall into my arms
(Fox Days Live Cafe)
Oh, gosh.
I wanted to eat it before it gets cold.
Have a seat.
How did you like my singing?
I don't care about the genre, whether it's trot or ballad,
as long as I can sing.
Okay. Let's do it.
If there's a ballad song request, you can sing it,
but you should know that we sing mostly trot songs here.
Okay. Thank you.
I'll do the best I can. Thank you.
- Yes! - By the way,
I just want you to change your stage name.
Min is such an old name to use here. People won't like it.
Do you have any good ideas?
Here it is! I have a good one!
It's Kkanpunggi.
Sorry?
It's just delicious. Why?
- But that's too... - Come on!
You can wear those sparkly outfits on the stage just like kkanpunggi.
Okay.
Let me thank you for the good name.
Thank you.
- Here. - Thank you.
Kkanpunggi!
Have some food too.
What's this? It looks like a new one.
Oh, my shirt got so many stains when I had naengmyeon,
so I bought a new one.
Did you?
I couldn't just attend the meeting with the stained shirt.
You could've asked me to get a new one, then.
You knew I was in the department store,
but you went back halfway.
I bought it then. The chairman called me over urgently.
Gosh. The chairman did?
Do you often have a meeting with the chairman?
That's so amazing.
I'm so proud of my husband.
You must be on your way to success.
You're recognized by the chairman too?
He only called for me. It doesn't mean that.
Anyway, I do have the highest performance review.
I may get promoted soon.
Oh, my. Really? Way to go, honey!
I'm thrilled for you, Sang Hyuk.
You did a good job.
You're adorable.
- Are you that happy to hear it? - Yes.
Goodness.
It hasn't been set yet.
Don't get your hopes up, Sun Hwa.
I want to get my hopes up as it makes me so happy.
You got a call. Who's the cool woman?
Oh, it's someone. I'll tell you later.
Hello?
Yes, hello.
- Is this a good time? - Of course, now's great.
I didn't want to interrupt your evening with your husband.
Of course not. Did you have dinner?
Yes, I had a light meal with my boyfriend and parted.
Oh, I see.
My husband said he had it outside, so I just had it now.
How does lunch this Friday sound?
Dinner won't be a good time for you as you have a family.
You don't have to repay me. I didn't do anything.
Don't say that. As I said, let's be friends.
If it's as friends,
then I'd like to go.
Yes. I know the place.
All right. I'll see you at noon on Friday, then.
Okay. Have a good night.
- He's not coming for tomorrow's schedule? - No, sir.
You're here. Come and have some tea.
Did you decide on a theme for the new product?
Yes, I'll report it to you after a team meeting tomorrow.
Honey, you're talking about work even at home.
What?
I'm sorry. I forgot.
You told me not to talk about work at home.
- Are you so happy about it? - Yes.
I have a new friend.
How did you make friends so soon?
You'll be charmed by her when you see her too.
She's sophisticated and cool.
Isn't it a man, by any chance?
Geez. You're joking again.
But why are you so interested in each other?
People would think you've known each other for years.
She's the opposite type of me. Shall I say?
You know, she has something I don't have.
Even if I wanted,
I could never have an aura like her.
That's what I admire about her.
That must be why I like her.
Don't you think she'd feel the same way?
I'm curious to know what she's like.
You went out in a while.
And you did well.
I miss Grandma.
Then,
do you want to stay with your grandma until our wedding?
Would you be okay with that?
Of course, I'll explain it to Mom.
Thank you, Sang Hyuk.
Grandma. Sang Hyuk got these as you like them.
- Please try it. - Goodness.
You didn't have to bring this.
Thank you, my grandson-in-law.
You're letting Sun Hwa stay with me...
for my sake.
I'll come to visit you often.
You should be healthy for Sun Hwa to be happy.
Of course.
You're adorable the more I see you.
Grandma, stop patting him.
He's so precious to me.
Fine.
Get going, Sang Hyuk. You'll be late.
Right, I should go.
You're joining me for lunch later, right?
Sure.
By the way, didn't you say you have a lunch plan?
Yes, with a brave woman.
Would it be okay for me to join you when it's lunch between you two?
Why not? You should have lunch too.
I made a reservation for three people.
I see. All right, then.
Gosh. How expensive it is.
Would it be okay if I let her pay?
I might get an upset stomach as it's so expensive.
- You got here early. - Oh, yes.
Is it okay if my boyfriend joins us?
Sure.
Something came up, and he'll be here soon.
Okay.
I'm curious.
If it's your boyfriend, he must be a great guy.
Yes, I guess.
Does the necktie you bought last time suit him well?
Yes, he liked it very much.
He told me I have a good eye.
At first, things started out of pride.
But now, I don't think I could be without him.
That must be why you want to get married.
Marriage?
I'm still thinking about it.
Why?
You said you couldn't be without him.
I felt like the world would come to an end without my husband too.
That's why I married him.
One should get married if such thoughts occur, right?
Sure.
I love him very much.
But there are too many obstacles to marry him.
Is he so valuable to me that I'd go through these obstacles...
to marry him?
I've been gauging that.
Then,
I guess it isn't true love.
Do you believe love is all you need to get married?
Business is a part of marriage too.
I'm not sure.
I believe that when you start calculating, that's not loving.
You can't ignore the reality.
Marriage is set in reality.
We'll have three portions of that.
One moment.
Yes, why aren't you here yet?
I'm waiting for a taxi. I called you, in case you're waiting.
Taxi?
I'll be there in five minutes.
We ordered already. You'll be here in five minutes, right?
We've been waiting for a while. Please hurry up.
Okay. I love you.
It sounds very sweet.
He'll be here in five minutes.
Aren't you hungry?
It's okay.
Please don't mention what we said in front of my boyfriend.
Of course.
In fact, the man himself is desirable.
He's charming, capable, and bright.
But his background...
I'm saying all kinds of things.
We've only just met, but I must've felt comfortable around you.
It's easier to tell your stories to mere acquaintances.
That's how you get closer too.
Right. As you said, I've been too calculative.
I should make up my mind to marry him.
That shows how much you love him.
Thank you for reminding me of it.
I've been there myself.
(Special thanks to Tony An.)
(The Second Husband)
Don't get wise with me.
I might not be well-educated, but I've trained for a long time.
(Fox Days Life Cafe)
I'm Kkanpunggi, the new trot singer.
You became foreign to me for some reason.
You'll always be on my side, right?
Let's get married, Sang Hyuk.
I'm proposing to you. Let's get married.
