(Episode 20)
Who is this girl?
Well, she's...
Who is this lady?
Who is this girl?
Who is this lady?
Hey, big sister.
"Big sister"?
Hey.
This person right here is my professor's daughter.
Your professor's daughter?
Your professor's daughter, my foot.
Do you seriously expect me to believe that lie?
Can we go over there and talk in private?
- Hurry. - Let me go.
- My gosh. - Let go of me.
- Hey, let me go. - Come on.
You little...
My gosh.
Come on.
Hae Jin, what is wrong with you?
Are you seriously trying to ruin my future?
Are you kidding me? How dare you shout at me?
You always acted as if you were studying hard for the exam.
But you stayed up all night just to sew back those buttons.
Why did you do that?
Did that brat make you wear this shirt today?
My gosh, stop.
You... You saw that?
Do you think I live with your family and work hard at the restaurant...
so that you can act like this?
Do you really think that?
My gosh, when did I ever force you to do any of that?
And as for this shirt,
I told you that I got it as a gift from Yeong Gu and Dong Bae.
Do you expect me to believe that? You little...
I'm serious. She's really my professor's daughter.
I don't believe you.
And why would you even meet your professor's daughter?
Well, that's because...
She's an international attorney.
Yes, she's an international attorney at a really famous law firm.
What? "An international attorney"?
Yes, my professor told me...
that I should start off by getting a job at a law firm.
Then I can get into law school through a special screening process.
If that happens,
the tuition will be free.
You love free stuff. I'll get to study for free,
and I'll be free...
from having to take the civil service exam.
My gosh.
I'm serious.
My professor knows I studied for the bar,
and he didn't want that to go to waste.
Plus, I'm older than my peers.
So he did me a favor and introduced me to her,
so I could get a job at a law firm and become a law school student.
- What are you doing? - Let me call your professor.
What?
I'll call him and ask.
Hae Jin.
I won't be easy on you today.
(Professor)
Hae Jin.
Hello?
Are you Jin Sang's professor?
Hello, I'm his older sister.
I'm sorry, but I have something to ask.
Hae Jin.
Can we please meet?
So...
you really did introduce them to each other?
Then is she really...
your daughter and an international attorney?
Yes.
These two first met at a seminar.
- Professor! - Welcome, you guys.
I was just about to do a roll call.
How are the girls today?
They're amazing. Come inside.
I'm sorry. I apologize.
I didn't know it was true. I'm sorry for wasting your time.
No, it's okay. Please sit back down.
Professor, thank you so much for coming all the way here.
I'll do everything I can to repay your kindness.
Okay, I wish you good luck even though it's going to be hard.
I need to go to another seminar.
So I'll be off now, ma'am.
Okay. I'm sorry. I really am.
You don't need to see me out. You can stay here and talk.
Give Jin Sang some useful advice.
My gosh.
Goodbye.
I'm sorry. I really didn't know.
But you really don't look like an international attorney.
Michael, why did you call me?
What?
Why do I need to hear about you guys fighting?
Seriously?
I won't be in the middle.
You want to fix it?
Then talk to her, not me.
I guess you really are an international attorney.
So you're Jin Sang's older sister?
Yes, I am.
I get that you're his sister, but you totally crossed the line.
Is there no respect for one's privacy in Korea?
This is totally unimaginable in the States.
I'm really sorry. I didn't know you were here to help.
See? I told you to stay still.
He should be studying right now,
so I completely lost it when I saw him...
with a pretty lady like you.
I understand, but it still isn't right.
Please forget about what I did today...
and just focus on helping Jin Sang.
Then I promise I'll be grateful for the rest of my life.
Well, that's a bit too much.
Hae Jin, you should go now.
The best thing you can do right now is to leave.
- Come on. - I'm really sorry.
When you have time one day, you should come to our restaurant.
Will you please just go?
Please guide him well.
I'm really sorry.
Come on.
What is the matter with you?
What is it this time?
You should've told me about this beforehand.
Here.
What?
Use this money to buy her something nice for lunch.
Keep being nice to her, okay?
Do you have more?
Here.
You should go now. Go on.
Bye.
I shouldn't have interfered.
I bet he tried really hard to get this opportunity.
Hey, Mom. The restaurant?
Yes, I'll be right there.
Where's Ju Ri?
She left early in the morning. She's busy these days.
Who is she seeing these days?
(Michael)
(Reject)
Why aren't you answering?
I wasn't even in Korea for that long,
but he's already cheating on me.
That can't be true.
I'm serious.
I'm a professional when it comes to that kind of stuff.
Has Jun Hu ever cheated on you?
What?
I'm not sure.
What kind of answer is that?
That was a yes or no question.
I don't keep track of everything he does outside.
And once you start being suspicious, your doubts start to feel very real.
I just think it's best to trust him.
My goodness, will you listen to yourself?
Jun Hu's also a man.
You should do everything you can to make sure he stays yours.
(President, Jeong Jun Hu)
Hey, Jun Hu.
Yes, it's me. Why haven't I heard from you in so long?
You talk like we're dating. Why would I call you?
I'm just saying.
How's Yu Ran? Is everything going well with her?
What?
Did you guys reconcile? Are you guys getting along?
What's there to reconcile about?
- Did you call to ask me that? - What?
No.
I met Director Kang yesterday.
I wanted to make sure your script got made.
He may be young, but he's known for having an eye for good dramas.
I asked him to give us input on where to revise it.
That's not necessary.
I was actually getting ready to go to a couple job interviews.
I won't be able to teach at school again,
so I'm thinking about teaching at an academy.
I told you already. I'm not going to write anymore.
Hey, come on.
Let's hang up. I need to get going now.
What do you want?
I need to go somewhere.
Gwang Ju will be home soon, so fix him something to eat.
Me?
You're his mom.
You haven't even had a meal with him yet.
You should talk to him a little...
Gosh, whatever. My head hurts.
I feel nauseous, and I have a headache.
Did something happen yesterday?
Do I need to tell you that too?
You can drink if you want,
but don't come home completely wasted.
I had my reasons.
I finally returned only to see you living like this.
How do you expect me to stay sober?
Why did you come back?
I don't know what it was that made you go abroad,
and why you're being like this even after you're back.
But you should at least be kind to Gwang Ju.
Gwang Ju did nothing wrong.
Please do me a favor.
My goodness, what's gotten into you?
You were always at home, but you're dressed in a suit today.
Is it a special day today?
Will you stop talking to me?
Okay, fine.
You're going on a blind date, aren't you?
What?
I'm glad you decided to do that.
It's hard for a guy to raise a kid on his own.
You should have a wife at home.
Lady, you're completely mistaken.
Don't lie to me.
Then why else would you be dressed in a suit?
You can't fool me.
Let's just forget it.
First floor.
I'm very quick-witted, you know.
Back when you were at the hospital, Gwang Ju told me...
that he doesn't have any relatives.
He also told me his mom is in France or something.
She apparently never even called or sent him a letter.
And he told me he can't remember what she looks like.
So that's when I realized...
that she must've gone to France for a good reason.
And I figured it was because you got a divorce.
Otherwise, there's no way she'd neglect her own son.
Anyway, Gwang Ju is at an age where he needs to be cared by a mom.
So make sure you do well today, okay?
Don't be cranky to your blind date.
And let her choose the menu.
Also, don't be so picky...
about her outer appearance.
And even if you don't like her,
you can't just tell after one single date.
So meet her a few more times.
Where are you going?
You need to pass my restaurant in order to get to the main street.
I don't want to talk to you! I'd rather take the longer route.
Hey, wait!
What is it this time?
Okay, you're good to go. You look fine on the outside.
What?
I wish you the best of luck, okay?
Good luck. You can do it!
Ms. Kang, you should start eating. I'm all done.
No, it's okay. Take your time.
Wait a minute. The stew is probably cold now.
No, it's okay. Just leave it.
You're going to eat rice with water?
This will help me eat it faster. We might get customers soon.
Then we'll just tell them to wait.
Feel free to take your time.
I'm okay.
People think restaurant owners...
get to eat good food.
But they have no idea what they're talking about.
We're always busy cooking when our customers are here...
to eat lunch and dinner.
We never get to rest. We cook the moment we have a customer.
Does Jin Sang even know how hard you work?
Yes, of course. You have no idea how hard he works for his future.
Ju Ri.
Forget it. I'm still not going to forgive you.
Come on, Ju Ri.
Will you please forgive me? It wasn't my fault.
I still feel upset.
Will you please forgive me just this once?
My sister is really scary.
Okay, fine. But just this once, okay?
Let me shower first.
You don't need to shower. You're already clean.
Sure, whatever.
I can't wait any longer.
What is that?
What? Don't let it bother you.
Is it your sister again?
Just don't let it bother you.
How am I supposed to ignore that?
What was that for?
Forget it. I'm going to shower.
Ju Ri! Ju Ri!
Darn it.
Then don't take too long, okay? Make it quick!
My gosh.
What do you want?
Hey, Jin Sang. How did it go? Are things going well?
No, nothing's going well.
So please stop calling me!
You're just ruining everything by calling like this.
Hello? Hello?
Did Jin Sang disrespect you again?
No, he didn't disrespect me.
I shouldn't have gone there.
I'm sorry. You have no experience as an academy teacher.
I'm sorry, we're only hiring experienced teachers.
I'm sorry. We already hired someone.
(Resume)
I see you used to teach Korean literature...
for seven years at Mirae Girls' High School.
Yes.
What made you quit?
I quit to do something personal.
I'm sorry.
We're only hiring experienced teachers.
I know you used to teach at school,
but academies are different. We're more focused on the KSATs.
I'm sorry.
I see.
I never once disregarded the KSATs...
back when I used to teach at school.
After all, I taught what I taught to help them achieve their dreams.
I can help students get better test scores.
And no one has ever said anything bad about my lectures.
If you haven't hired anyone yet,
will you at least see how I do?
Then how about this?
I'll let you teach a class today...
and make a decision to hire you based on our students' reactions.
Dad. Dad.
Is he not home?
You're home.
Yes, where's Dad?
I don't know.
- Are you hungry? - A little.
No, I'm not hungry.
You don't need to lie.
If I don't cook for you, your dad will throw a fit.
Wait. I'll quickly fix you something to eat.
Gwang Ju, come here and eat.
That was quick.
Hurry up and sit down.
Okay.
Pour the leftover food in the sink.
Don't just leave that on the table.
- Have a seat. - Okay.
We told you that we'll decide based on the students' reactions.
This is an honest review from the students.
Their reactions...
are quite surprising.
I don't want you going anywhere, so I'm going to hire you.
Thank you.
Gwang Ju.
Gwang Ju, are you sleeping already?
I bought ice cream.
I said, I bought ice cream.
Gwang Ju.
Gwang Ju, what's wrong? Are you sick?
Do you feel sick?
Then what is it? What's wrong?
Dad! Dad!
My goodness.
Why are you crying? What is it?
Tell me why you're crying.
Mom, you should go now. I'll clean up the rest.
No, it's okay. Let's do it together.
You need to go home early so that Cheol Jin won't end up hating me.
- You should go now. - Okay.
We're done for the day.
Hey, Cheol Jin.
My goodness, speak of the devil.
Cheol Jin.
I didn't get a place for Jin Sang.
I'm doing what you told me to do. I'm trying to see him for who he is.
I'm not here because of Jin Sang.
Here.
What's that?
It was delicious, so I got some...
for you and Hae Jin.
My goodness, isn't he so sweet?
He obviously bought this because he wanted to apologize...
for yelling at you last time.
Here, Hae Jin.
Thank you.
You should take Mom home. I'll eat this at home.
Just eat it by yourself. Don't leave any for Jin Sang.
Yes, of course.
Do you want it?
You can have it.
Thank you.
- I'm home. - Hey.
We didn't leave any for you.
This tastes bad once it gets cold.
Okay, thank you for being so considerate.
Don't mention it.
Where's Yu Ri?
She got upset that we always order food when you're not here.
So she just went into her room.
What's that?
It's nothing much. It's just something for Jin Sang.
I see.
Didn't it look like food?
Just leave it. It's probably just...
spicy rice cakes or fish cakes.
Hey, Mom.
Yu Ri, you're still awake.
I waited for you to come home.
Why didn't you eat jokbal?
I couldn't stand Grandpa and Aunt.
They always order food whenever you're not around.
Then they say you're unlucky when it comes to food.
Yu Ri.
Your uncle got this for me.
- But let's eat it with your dad. - What is it?
Sushi.
"Sushi"? What's that?
It's something really delicious.
I rarely get to eat it too.
Let's call your dad and ask him where he is.
- Yu Ri, how about you call him? - Me?
Yes, I feel like he'll get angry at me for calling again.
My gosh, what should I get?
I don't want her to complain that I got the wrong stuff.
My gosh, I forgot to bring it with me.
My gosh.
(Hae Jin)
He isn't answering.
- The receiver cannot be reached. - Then just hang up.
- You will be directed to voice... - Let me try one more time.
(Hae Jin)
Dad, where are you?
Why aren't you coming home?
Mom, Dad isn't saying anything.
Hello? Jin Sang.
Are you still with the attorney?
Hello? Hello?
What's the matter?
I guess he can't talk right now.
Ji Ri, I bought some beer.
Ju Ri.
Are you married?
Really?
(Wanna Taste?)
I asked you to be nice to Gwang Ju.
- That's why I made him cup noodles. - Yu Ran.
- You want to ask me for a favor? - I won't be able to take care of...
Gwang Ju anymore.
Are you going somewhere?
I don't want any of this.
My goodness, what a waste.
You ruined everything.
Is the attorney still angry?
Why did you call me?
Why did you marry me?
