When will our chicken get here? I'm hungry.
It'll be here shortly. Wait just a bit longer.
Oh, this must be it.
Who is it?
Ms. Sim Jung Ae? The registered mail with your credit card is here.
One moment, please.
They sent the credit card already?
Mom, our chicken will be here any minute now. Can you get it?
Sure.
- Here it is. - Thank you.
Please sign here.
Where is this house?
Thank you.
Is it that house over there?
Hey, Kyung Sun.
What?
Yoo Dong Gu is in Korea?
Really?
Does that mean Eun A and Eun Hyuk are in Korea too?
Ma'am.
Here's your chicken.
My babies were here all this time?
They live so close to me?
Gosh, I had no idea.
I wasted 30 years,
looking for my children elsewhere.
Yes, all right.
I'll go and talk to my husband.
Okay.
Oh, right.
Something urgent has come up,
so I need to leave now.
As for the chicken...
Could you ring the doorbell and give it to them?
Oh, sure.
Mom stepped out to get her credit card. What's taking her so long?
I wonder too. It's not like she went to get a new one made.
What? What is this?
Mom's outside. Who's ringing the doorbell?
That's weird.
(Haha Chicken)
- Hello, I'm from Haha Chicken. - Yes.
Great, thank you.
Where did Jung Ae go?
Are you looking for the lady in the floral dress?
She went that way, saying something urgent had come up.
Oh, really?
Gosh, what's the urgent matter?
She'd stepped out to get her credit card.
Here, thank you. Enjoy the chicken.
Where did she go?
She's not even picking up.
So, Yoo Dong Gu is in Korea.
I heard he came back 17 years ago.
We don't know for sure yet.
You probably heard this too,
but they found someone...
who was Yoo Dong Gu's neighbor in the Philippines.
This person moved to China but has moved back to the Philippines.
They contacted the Korean Community Association upon hearing that...
they were looking for Yoo Dong Gu.
Then shouldn't we meet that person first?
We should go to the Philippines right away.
My goodness. I knew you'd react like this.
This is why I told them not to tell you until we were sure.
I can't believe Kyung Sun told you right away.
Why did you tell her to keep it from me? This is about my children.
You know I've been desperately waiting for this news.
First, we should make sure whether or not...
this person is telling the truth.
They could be lying because they want to extort money from us.
They might try to swindle us.
But what if we lose them?
When we found that person who knew Chun Young,
we lost our chance because we took our sweet time.
That person was a swindler for sure,
although you still won't admit it because you're so hung up on it.
Stop making such a fuss. This won't help us in any way.
Think about why I'm being like this. I'm just so desperate.
It's been 30 long years, not just a year or 2.
My heart has been torn to shreds!
"Will I see them today or tomorrow?"
I've been so anxious every single day.
I've been feeling miserable...
for years.
Yes, I know that.
So let's be careful.
You've waited for 30 years,
so try to be a little more patient and...
Be more patient? How?
How could I possibly be more patient than I have been?
My children might live somewhere close.
Maybe they were within arm's reach this whole time!
Right?
- All of a sudden. - I'm back.
- Really? - Hey, thanks for taking care of it.
Hey.
Eun A, you got home early today.
"Early?" Come on.
I had to leave the house in the wee hours for the show.
It sure isn't easy to earn a living.
Hey, what's with that face?
Why? What about my face?
How should I put this?
Shall I say you look like a puppy that got soaked in the rain...
or like a cat that lost a fish right before its eyes?
Did something happen while delivering the order?
Was someone mean to you?
Goodness.
No, it's not that.
I think the lady who placed the order...
lost her children 30 years ago.
And today, she found out where her children were.
I saw her shedding tears while talking on the phone.
Gosh, I can't get it out of my mind.
My goodness. What happened that she lost her kids 30 years ago?
Well, that I don't know.
I feel so bad for her.
A mother cannot live without her children.
There's nothing sadder...
than not being able to see your own children.
Her children?
That means she has at least two kids.
My gosh. You're right.
Gosh, my heart really breaks for her.
I've never met this lady,
but I can sympathize with her pain because I am a mother too.
She must be utterly devastated.
But what if she abandoned her kids? That can't be, right?
You mean, on purpose?
Maybe she had an affair,
or her family went bankrupt. Did she get a divorce?
- Come on. - No way. Even if she had an affair,
it's not easy for a mother to abandon her own children.
If her family went bankrupt,
and if she got a divorce,
she must know where her children are.
Right, that's not the impression I got.
It looked like she'd been missing her kids deeply, for years.
After losing them due to some circumstances.
What?
She lost all the movie files?
Yes. She's running around to restore the files somehow,
but it'll be hard.
A lot of them are old classics that you can't find now.
So?
Where is Ms. Yoo now?
She asked me to wait until tomorrow and left the office,
but I have no idea where she went.
Do you think Ms. Yoo can manage to get those films?
Mr. Kim had to go to the US to get some of them,
so how would she find them?
I doubt she can find them.
Then will she get fired?
She's not even a permanent employee.
A temporary employee caused trouble as soon as she joined us.
It's so odd though.
She said she double-checked the files in the morning.
How did the files get wiped out on Ms. Shin's desk?
It's not like there was a magnet that reset the hard drive.
What? The hard drive was on Ha Young's desk,
not on Ms. Yoo's desk?
Yes.
It's not like she dropped the hard drive.
Why did everything get wiped out?
Then...
Ms. Yoo.
There are cups and trash all over the staff lounge.
Can you please tidy up?
I'm worried someone would spill their coffee. I'm sorry.
No, don't be. I'll take care of it now.
Is the audience trends report here?
Oh, here it is.
My gosh!
Why is this happening first thing in the morning?
(Pending Approval)
(Cheong Film)
Yes, sir. I'm in the office.
I'll be right there.
Oh, hi.
Sorry, I spilled some coffee. Could you please clean this?
Sure.
My goodness.
Is that what happened?
Yoon A, what's wrong? Is something the matter?
No, don't mind me. I have to go to the restroom.
What's with her? Her face suddenly turned pale.
(Team "Hidden Memory")
My goodness.
Ma'am. In the morning, I spilled coffee on the floor...
and asked you to clean it for me.
Did you see an external hard drive while you were cleaning?
"External hard drive?" What's that?
It's the size of a palm and has a square shape.
It kind of looks like a cell phone.
Oh, that. It had coffee all over it,
so I wiped it carefully...
and put it on Ms. Shin's desk.
Why? Is there a problem?
On Ha Young's desk?
I have to get back to work.
Oh, no.
Ms. Yoo wasn't the one who broke the hard drive.
It was me.
Is this the Korean Film Cultural Center?
Do you happen to have...
"Daisy in the Fog" and "The Scenery on the Bike" in your archive?
Yes! I'm coming now. Okay.
(Korean Film Cultural Center)
My gosh. Thank you.
We rarely share our files with individuals,
but I was touched when you said...
you'd repay us by making good movies.
Yes. I joined the film production company recently,
so I still have a lot to learn.
But these films...
will help us make great movies.
I appreciate the enthusiasm.
I know where you can find one of the films you're looking for.
But it won't be easy to get it from them.
They store films in their permanent archive.
They don't rent them out to anyone.
And they have pressing matters at hand now.
Why? What's going on?
The Film Art Research Center...
recently worked with some emerging filmmakers...
to produce short films.
But no one's coming to watch them,
so they're struggling at the moment.
If the situation doesn't change for the better,
they may end up with a budget cut.
(Little Giant Film Festival)
They didn't have to toss it like that...
even if they didn't want to watch the movie.
To some people, it's a desperate wish...
- and hope. - Yes.
Thank you.
Oh, that's right.
(Small but Strong, Together We're Greater!)
(Little Giant Film Festival)
"Little Giant."
Hey, Da Jung!
Gosh, I'm sorry for calling you out of the blue.
Sorry for making you bring these here.
Don't worry. We always have these at the theater.
Why do you need them?
I want to gather some people, like we used to do at Blue Moon.
What?
I don't have much time right now.
I'll explain everything later. I'm sorry.
- Thanks. Bye. - Okay. Bye.
Bye!
Ta-da! Take this cute balloon,
and come watch a movie.
They're showing...
some great short films at this theater.
I've never watched a short film before. Are they good?
They're very different from feature films or commercial movies...
but are charming in their own unique ways.
If you have some time, go watch one.
Shall we? Are you down for this new experience?
It'll be such a refreshing experience.
The theater is right there.
Thank you.
Come and watch a movie.
This will help us broaden our cultural horizons.
That friendly lady made me want to watch the films.
(Little Giant Film Festival)
What's that?
Everyone is holding a balloon.
Yes, I see that.
We didn't give them out.
Watch some short films at this theater here.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
How about a movie date?
Hello.
They're showing some short films at this theater here.
You should check them out.
Thank you.
Gosh, I'm starving.
Hello.
My gosh.
Hello.
I planned and produced the short films.
I'm the director of the Korean Film Cultural Center.
I saw you promoting our films earlier.
Who might you be?
I'm Yoo Eun Sung, and I work for Cheong Film.
The thing is, I have a favor to ask of you.
But I thought I should try to help you first...
before asking you for a favor.
So I promoted the films without asking for your permission first.
I see.
What do you need?
Thanks to you, people are coming to watch our films,
so please tell me what you need.
Well, the thing is...
You got the movie?
From the Film Art Research Center?
They never let anyone take films from their archive.
My gosh. I'm impressed, Ms. Yoo.
Shall I tell them the truth now?
Or shall I not say anything?
So? Where are you headed now?
I'm going to meet a video creator who specializes in films.
One of this person's videos...
is about the movie I'm looking for.
The fact that they edited the video themselves...
means there's a good chance that they have the whole file.
Oh, I managed to reach them via social media.
Really? Good luck.
Ms. Yoo, you got this.
My, Ms. Yoo is doing much better than I'd expected.
At this rate, she'll find all those movies.
She's the one who made the mistake.
Of course, she should take responsibility.
I really hope Ms. Yoo gets the situation sorted out...
so nothing will happen to anyone.
That was so delicious. I'm totally satisfied.
Ordering from this place was a good call, right?
Everyone says it's the best fried chicken place in my neighborhood.
But not many people know about them as it's not one of those franchises.
My friend's family has a fried chicken joint in your neighborhood.
Really? What's the place called?
That I don't know.
Anyway, it's not a franchise either.
I see. Hey, the guy who delivered the chicken was very handsome.
Really? Was he one of those professional delivery guys?
What? No.
I think the owners deliver every order themselves.
I always tell them to just leave it at the door,
so it was my first time meeting the deliveryman.
I see. I should order from them again to see this guy.
What? Hey.
I guess your mom's back. She didn't even answer her phone earlier.
Mom.
Where have you been?
You didn't even answer your phone.
Why didn't you tell us if you had to go somewhere?
You said you were stepping out for a moment.
What's wrong?
Did something happen?
Sun Ju, go upstairs.
Jung Sook, come to my room.
What's with her? Auntie Jung Sook, did you do something wrong again?
No. Not this time.
Jung Ae, what's the matter? You look dazed.
Hey.
Yoo Dong Gu is in Korea.
- What? - I heard...
he moved back to Korea 17 years ago.
With Eun A and Eun Hyuk.
What? Really?
Did you hear from the people in the Philippines?
Yes.
Ki Seok keeps saying we should still check.
But I heard his old neighbor showed up.
According to Kyung Sun,
from his looks and personality...
to the way he talks, he's very similar to Yoo Dong Gu.
Even his children's names are the same. Eun A and Eun Hyuk.
Oh, my goodness.
If it were just his name, it could be a mere coincidence.
But if the children's names are the same too...
Gosh.
Well, it just slipped out of my hand.
Jung Sook, something's come up.
- I have to go. - What? What has come up?
Hey, what's more important than Eun A and Eun Hyuk?
Yoo Dong Gu...
He really is in Korea now?
No!
Hey, kid.
Nice car.
My dad bought it for me for my birthday.
Can I try it too?
Sure.
Oh! It's faster than I thought.
Don't go too far!
My dad said to stay here and play.
Hey! Where are you going?
Hey!
Hey, give me back my car. Hey!
That idiot. He can't even run. Catch me if you can!
Gosh! What's this?
That car. Is it yours?
I borrowed this.
It's that lady.
You borrowed it?
I don't buy that.
I did borrow it from someone.
Besides, why do you care?
I know the boy who owns it.
He cherishes it so much that he'd never lend it to anyone.
I borrowed it from him!
Is that so? All right, then.
Lady, what are you doing?
I'm borrowing this. It's a cute hat.
I never said you could borrow it.
You just took it from me.
This is your car. Is it true that you let him borrow it?
No, he just ran off with it.
I told you I'd play with it for a bit.
And I told you...
I was borrowing this cute hat.
Here.
Are we good now? Give me back my hat.
This really is a cute hat.
Sister.
Wait up, sister!
You're so cool. Even girls would have a crush on you.
Hey, kiddo. I told you to pretend not to know me.
Since I'm an old woman,
you should just ignore me even if you run into me.
But you aren't old. You're young enough to be my sister.
Sister or not,
just pretend not to know me.
Then why did you help me?
I mean, if we're strangers.
It had nothing to do with you. I only did it because I'm righteous.
When I see someone mistreating a person weaker than them,
I automatically take action without even realizing it.
I see. Like those superheroes...
saving people from villains?
Well...
I wouldn't call that kid a villain,
but I'm as brave and righteous...
as those superheroes.
And you. Stop following me now, okay?
I told you to stop following me.
I'm not following you.
I'm going to my dad's cafe.
You're lying.
I'm telling you the truth. The cafe isn't far from here,
like I said last time.
(Haha Chicken)
You said you wouldn't follow me. Why do you keep following me?
I'm not following you.
Where's your dad's cafe?
It's right here.
- Hey. - Dad.
Ga Ram.
Is this your dad's cafe?
Hello.
Here.
Try it.
I made it with the coffee beans we received today.
Thank you.
I didn't know this was your cafe.
I thought you were a customer.
I didn't know the owners of Haha Chicken were your parents.
I just thought you were a customer who came to have fried chicken.
(Good Day for Coffee)
Oh, Ga Ram...
looked for you, saying he wanted to apologize for calling you "Ma'am."
I was a little offended, but what can I do?
In his eyes, I look old.
I'm sad that I'm getting old.
Gosh, no.
You look young. Young and pretty.
But I've never bought you a meal.
Your son sternly said I might look young...
but that he'd never call me pretty unless I took him out for a meal.
No.
Ga Ram always said he thought you were pretty.
He showed me a clip from your show and said that...
- despite your nasty temper... - What did you say?
- "Nasty?" - What?
No, I meant...
"Nasty temper?" How dare you!
No, forget that. Did he say "ill-tempered?"
What? "Ill-tempered?"
Are you two trying to make fun of me together?
Are you guys trying to mess with me?
No, never.
- Not at all. - As if I'd believe that.
You called me here and only gave me a cup of coffee.
And what? "Nasty temper?" "Ill-tempered?"
- Well... - From now on,
just pretend not to know me.
I won't even consider you my neighbor! Okay?
- Gosh, I can't believe this. - Wait.
Oh, sister!
What happened this time?
She looks even angrier this time.
Ga Ram.
- Hey. - What are you doing here?
I was practicing my taekwondo moves,
but I think we've got another problem.
"Problem?" What happened?
Who else in the family would cause trouble other than me?
I think Dad caused trouble this time.
Something as big as a hurricane.
Oh, boy.
I'm only taking a quick break to recharge,
but Min Guk is already trying to beat me.
Goodness.
It must've been a hassle to contact you after a long time...
and ask for a favor.
Thank you.
Okay.
She's still not back? What is she up to?
It's getting late.
Hello?
Where are you?
What are you doing? It's getting late.
Oh, I'm in front of a video creator's house.
This person has a part of one of the movies I lost,
so I'm here to get it.
Are you sure that person has it?
Did you make an appointment to see them?
Yes, I was told to come to their house,
but they're not here yet.
Okay, so where is that house?
She should've taken her jacket no matter how busy she was.
It's very chilly these days.
There's nothing that can beat a desperate desire.
One day, the world will recognize my sincerity.
What's with this woman?
Why does she keep reminding me of the woman I met at the park?
If only I could get a chance...
If you leave it to me,
I will give my all.
So please...
If you're that desperate...
If you're that desperate,
- your wish will come true. - your wish will come true.
Whatever you wish for.
Since it was hard for me to decide to work here,
I'll learn everything I can learn here.
Even if it's painful and brings me down,
I shall keep moving forward.
Why is she so desperate?
Is Yoo Dong Gu really in Korea now?
My dear Eun A and Eun Hyuk.
Can I finally meet them?
I miss my children, even in my dreams.
It's cold.
When will this person get here?
Gosh.
Are they coming or not?
If Yoo Dong Gu is in Korea,
it's possible I've already met them.
I might have walked by them without even realizing it.
Perhaps, the bond between us...
never broke.
What?
(Unpredictable Family)
I wonder if Ms. Yoo got everything sorted out.
Thank you.
Anyway, what brings you here?
I got worried, knowing you were meeting a stranger by yourself.
Shall I say you look like a man starting a new love?
You're bound to look for your children when you get older...
even if you abandoned them when you were young.
About Yoo Dong Gu.
What's your take on the situation back then?
The thing is...
They found some footage that shows that dumpling thief.
Is it this person?
Mom's coming for you.
I'll find you two no matter what!
