-=Episode 36=-
This strawberry cake is personally made by me. Eat this together with son-in-law.
I'm back. Sit down and talk to me.
Su Yeong, I...
What are you doing?
Let's end it. Let's divorce.
I couldn't comprehend in the beginning as well. If the bridegroom and bride aren't around, why do we have to take a group photo?
Why didn't you ask me earlier? Once we put it together, it would look very natural.
Due to the good fortune of the in-laws, the photo came out very nicely.
The bridegroom and bride were already good-looking.
Especially for Su Yeong, the photo came out very well.
Let me make a toast for both of you. Every time I see you both, I get so envious.
I've been envious watching how you live whenever we meet because both of you look like you enjoy living together.
Aigoo. What are you saying. Compared to yours, our lives are too impoverished. (Aigoo - oh dear, oh my god)
Aigoo. What are you saying. You are all too modest.
Living with one's mother-in-law is also a rare thing.
My biggest desire is to befriend nature and to have a farm.
Thank you... thank you...
Since you're praising us this much, I feel very honored. Let's toast.
Good. Elder and In-laws, let's drink.
Aigoo. I already drank a lot.
On a day like today, it's all right, Elder.
That's right. Let's drink. Cheers!
Cheers!
Talking about appearances, there's nothing lacking in Son-in-law Hwang.
Soon, he will become an IBC news anchor.
Aigoo. That is a fact known to all of South Korea, no need to say it a second time.
But Son-in-law Hwang's attitude is a bit...
as a mother-in-law, I also want to do something for him as well.
But he can't simply accept my gesture and be grateful. He always rejects me.
Is our Tae Beom really like that?
Didn't you all know, how demanding and cold Son-in-law Hwang is?
Is our Tae Beom really like that?
Our Tae Beom isn't easy to provoke.
No. Rather than saying he is demanding, might as well say he's very special.
You, seriously. The way you said it, the In-laws would think you weren't joking.
They will think what you told them was the truth.
I'm not kidding. Every Friday, just to write an autobiography that has no connection with me,
I was forced to go to the "Study Room" that doesn't exist. Do you know what the feeling was?
Honey.
What do you mean by that?
No, it's not like that.
This is how she likes to deceive others. Saying my husband is writing his autobiography in the study.
What can I do? No matter how painful it is, I still have to respect my wife's pride, like she is a god.
So I have to go to the non-existing Study Room. I often go to the banks, bookshops, library, and occasionally to an Internet cafe.
Honey.
She feels the views of others are 100 times more significant than those of her husband.
Therefore, she has a nickname of "False King Yu". "False King Yu" is very appropriate for her, isn't it?
So when you had an affair, I discovered it, right?
It was because you never care about your own pride and other people's views.
What are you talking about?
He had an affair last time. He enjoyed a tactful love that time. It's just good I caught him.
And they held hands. They held hands.
Do you have to act like this?
What's wrong? I was telling the truth!
In-laws.
The mother of the daughter-in-law,
Yes. It's a fact. That is a fact.
Elder, we only exchanged a few emails. Just because I held the woman's wrist once...
Didn't you say you held hands twice?
Just because of this thing, these past few years, I always received vicious revenge from her.
These past few years, I couldn't enter the bedroom. In the beginning, I wasn't even allowed to eat the food she prepared.
I received every kind of insults. One day when I went to the washroom, I saw
her using my toothbrush...
Honey.
She cleaned the the toilet seat using my toothbrush.
After that, she put the toothbrush back to its original position.
I didn't even know that there was such a thing and she used the toothbrush. Do you know how many times I brushed my teeth?
I brushed for several times.
You are really... you are really...
What are you doing?
It was during senior high?
Yes, during high school. I traveled all over the country just to seek an answer of my life.
Really? Your parents gave you their permission?
No, of course, I didn't have permission. In other words, I ran way from home.
So you ran away from home.
Yes. It's true. I hurt my parents' heart.
So, where did you go?
I really went to several places, everywhere in the country. I rode boats and trains.
Until I finally arrived in Busan. After that, I worked in the kitchen of a restaurant because I didn't have money.
You really ran way from home.
After that, how did you return home?
Mother and my third hyeong came to Busan to find me. They followed me and they said I will die if I won't go back.
My mother advised me to go back within 3 days.
But from the fourth day, she let me to go back. She just washed the dishes at the kitchen.
It was just like that for 1 month, she never called me to go back. She only kept on washing dishes.
So, on the 31th day, I told her...
"Mother, we should go back".
She's really a good mother.
Yes, my mother is that type of person. Until the very end, she will believe her child.
She waited after I finished my mandatory military service. It's been so long since I lived like a parasite.
"Why aren't you finding work? What do you want to eat in future?". She even supervised and urged me to finish my task.
So, I want to earn a lot of money. When I earn a lot of money later, I want to do something with it.
What do you want to do?
I want to buy one block of a spacious and fertile land.
For a thousand years, my mother don't have to worry about moving house and she can farm any kind of plant.
She has been planting all her life, but she planted on other people's land.
And also...
Also, I want my oldest hyeong to get married.
In fact, in this world there aren't people like my oldest hyeong who is so good and honest.
But like my oldest hyeong, there are also people who have a bad luck.
Therefore sometimes I get angry. People who are kind, honest, and working hard, should also get happiness.
My mother, my father, and my oldest hyeong are really hardworking. They are very nice and honest.
That way, it makes a better world and advances society, right?
Did I say too much? Anyway, I want to succeed and become a supporter of my oldest hyeong.
When he is ready to get married, I think I should prepare a rented apartment at least.
No need to. It's all right. I'm not cold.
I'm a bit cold.
Do you want me to lend you my pocket?
What? There's no need for it. It's all right.
Then...
I will return home before 9 at night. Let's meet at the farm later.
Ajussi, quickly let go. If you don't let go, then I will ignore you.
When I count to 3, both of you must let go together. 1, 2, 3.
See if I will go out. I already said I wouldn't talk to him, but he still refused to let go.
If you don't let it go, then I will ignore you.
What are you doing here?
If I don't go out, he will continue to wait for me. The weather is so cold outside.
He hasn't returned yet?
This is Ajussi's car.
Can it be that he's already inside? It's only 45 minutes, he can't even wait for an hour.
And he doesn't even call.
Don't look at me with that kind of expression in your eyes. I want to die now.
Okay, so what happened?
That's all of it. She just got angry and left. And she didn't even come out a while ago.
In front of Ja Eun, you did this with that guy?
Yes.
Wait a moment. Let me just laugh.
Hey. Didn't I tell you not to laugh?
Hey. I'm going to kick you!
I know. I know. I know. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Okay, I'm calm now. Keep talking.
Ja Eun must be really mad that's why she didn't come out? Right?
That, I don't know where to explain. You don't even have the basics to understand.
Are you not angry? Ja Eun didn't come out.
Of course, I'm angry. She only said that vague answer, "Yes. Let's go." And didn't say anything after that.
That's why I'm behaving like this.
Yes. You are also mad. So for 3 days, stop contacting Ja Eun.
Don't call or text her. I don't think it will happen, but
if Ja Eun calls you tomorrow, don't answer it.
If you receive a text, don't reply to her text.
Why?
Because Ja Eun didn't come out today. And also, when you confessed, she didn't even react.
She is at least two levels ahead of you. This means she wants to start by completely pulling you towards her. It means it's starting again.
If you just pull along, she won't feel your charm and will lose her interest.
If you want to get Ja Eun, you must certainly hear what I'm saying.
Tomorrow when we eat breakfast, don't look at her. And don't try to talk to her.
Leave your phone in the drawer for 3 days. Lock it up.
No, no, no. Say that you have to work undercover. You can't return home. Understand?
Not even calling me on the phone or texting me.
He had an affair last time. It's just good I caught him. And they held hands. They held hands.
I just held her wrist once.
Didn't you say you held it twice?
She used my toothbrush...
Honey!
Why are you all standing there? Sit down.
Aigoo. My head is very painful. Is everybody here?
Did something happen, Grandma?
The In-laws came yesterday, so everyone drank one glass.
It seems like everyone didn't drink only one glass.
Yes. Everyone drank a few of glasses. Let's just eat, everyone. We will eat well.
Thank you for the food!
Oh no. I didn't realize it when I was drinking that time, but the wine must have been strong.
Are you feeling uncomfortable now, Mother?
No, the wine is good. It was not that uncomfortable. I just worried about their house.
Yes. I'm really worried about them.
They might beat up each other now.
It should be. It was too funny.
Me too. It was really funny.
I couldn't even sleep well last night.
What's wrong with everyone? What happened?
Right. Today I have to go to work early. Hyeong, prepare quickly.
What? Today I will be absent. I need to go settle Guk Su's school problem.
Father, can I not move out first?
Since all of you will continue living here, I think I could postpone living independently for the time being.
What are you saying? We already thought you wanted it that way.
If you live independently, when you go to work later, who will be taking care of Guk Su?
But I already promised Father. A promise is a promise. Father won't forgive me about this.
Where did you learn being like that? Just confront people when you talk.
At the moment, we are here so you can live together with us until we move.
Yes. Thank you.
Do you still remember about last night?
Do you still remember?
How could you say that in front of the in-laws? How could you even say about the toothbrush?
Cha Su Yeong didn't even know about that.
About the affair, how could you say it to the in-laws?
How can I face them in future?
Who started it? If you hadn't said about the autobiography, why would I say those things?
I have nothing to say. I regretted a lot early morning when I woke up.
That's why I said you should drink less, why won't you listen? What kind of humiliation is this? I'm going crazy.
I'm sorry. Honey, do you want a soothing drink?
Take a seat. I made breakfast.
I know you are very angry.
Let's tell the company that we are married. Let's announce it openly.
My stomach will be showing soon. I wanted to hang in there until the end of the year, but I really can't bear it anymore.
Let's now say it to them.
Fine, let's say it. It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter?
It doesn't matter. I already told Hye Ryeong that I was married.
I won't forgive you about what happened yesterday just for that. I felt angry and was in despair.
I think you should also feel that.
I loved her for 10 years. Like I said, I went through 1/3 of my life with her together.
I spent 10 Christmas together with her. We watched the world cup twice together.
She was my first love. She's also the first woman I hate.
After listening that I was married, she lost her words and drank.
I think I should call her a taxi, at least. Can't you understand?
I don't want to know. If it was a man who was my neighbor then I will understand.
Because you are man who lives with me, I don't want to understand.
Give me a bit of time until my heart is completely cleared up of her. Just a bit of time.
Please give me some time.
You're requesting too much from me. This isn't something I can control rationally.
Even I can use my brain to understand, I can hardly understand with my heart.
So yesterday's matter, I don't want you to repeat it again.
What is it that you wanted to talk with me? Tell me.
Yes, Bureau Chief. We should have told you earlier about the truth, but it's so late to say it. We are really sorry.
You might be surprised. You might think it's ridiculous, we hope you can understand us, Bureau Chief.
Yes, then say it. What matter should I know? Then, I can understand you. I can feel it's really ridiculous.
Yes. We, in fact, are...
Sorry. Wait a moment.
Team Leader Oh. What? Corruption case at Chang Wan University? Director Chong Jang?
Is that so? I get it. You've worked hard, Team Leader Oh.
Team Leader Oh finally received a report about the corruption case by the director of Chang Wan University.
Recently reports by your group isn't bad, Team Leader Cha. You must be nervous.
And you know next month there will be an evaluation on team leaders, right?
Yes.
Let's continue with our main topic. What is the matter that can surprise me?
Yes. I will say it. In fact, we are...
We will cooperate to put enough effort to make "Start Together" a big hit.
Please look forward to it, Bureau Chief.
Don't use that kind of expression on your face. I only did it because of the evaluation matter. I'm postponing it to 3 weeks for the evaluation only.
What did I say? You are the one who pushed this. It wasn't me.
I know that. Did I say it was you? Make sure to tell Writer Han.
What are you doing? When there are more people.
Well, tell her. A few months later you will be a father. I'm going to interview.
I think I already said it. You don't get what I said? Aren't you a pregnant woman?
Until when are you going to wear high-heeled shoes?
Really incompetent. You are good for nothing, Cha Su Yeong. Idiot!
I have thought about the friends. The rat is the most suitable.
President, what brings you here?
Did you stop the construction of the theme park?
Let them leave first then we talk. Director Yang, Writer Baek.
Answer me. Did you stop it?
Yes.
Since when did you become disobedient?
That was my personal order. Unexpectedly, without consulting me, you done it on your own and stopped it?
I'm sorry, but make them leave first and we talk. I will ask them leave.
Director Yang, Writer Baek, please leave first.
Don't you know what I feel about the farm, for you
to stop purchasing it and ceasing the construction?
That's why I wanted to leave it. I understand how you feel about them.
Mother wouldn't want to see you doing this.
Mother absolutely wouldn't want you to treat them this way.
What do you know? Who do you think you are to dare teach me?
Do you know how your mother spent her long years? How much pain she suffered?
Father!
And also, how dared you use cheap conditions to stop the purchase.
I don't care what's your motive to buy the farm, the project has already begun.
The construction date is coming soon, just continue to go forward.
Do you know that because of you our company has to bear big losses?
Why are you are being considerate, Vice President?
If you want to continue being like this, then stop being the vice president and immediately go to the U.S.A.
That's why I already said you better not do it. Purchase the farm immediately.
I will give you half a month. Within that period, if you cannot settle it back to the way it was,
I won't see you again. Understood?
Father.
I'm telling the truth. Your mother is no longer here, so I am not going to see you again in the future.
Only half a month. You better do what I said.
I adopted you and let you in, but this is what you're doing.
You came.
Let's finish our meeting. Where were we just now?
Where is Director Yang?
He said he got a phone call from home and it's urgent so he left. He asked me to say he was sorry.
Is that so? Then, let's do the meeting with just the two of us.
Yes.
Wait, what were we talking just now? Ah, the wild boar.
This won't do. Let us have a rest for a while.
I can't concentrate.
I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Because of the farm's problem, the president is very angry, isn't he?
That's right. The president's is very irritable.
No need to care about it. And also, you don't have to use that kind of expression.
This is my own decision and it's not something that you have to blame yourself at all.
Let us rest for a while. I will go down and find you. You wait for me at the studio first.
Yes.
I'm telling the truth. Your mother is no longer here so I am not going to see you again in future.
I adopted you and let you in, but this is what you're doing.
Surprise! Have fun picking. These are super-unequaled comedy films that will possibly make you lose your navel,
and some are melo that will cause people to use tissue paper to wipe the tears all the way.
What do you want to watch? Here, I'll be providing every kind of service for you from pressing 'play' to serving drinks.
You laughed. Are you a bit okay?
Yes. It's good enough?
That's really good, but you still can't continue with your work. At least watch one movie.
Have a pick. You can watch two, too. I'll be waiting for you.
Let's go to watch a movie for our first date.
What?
You cannot reject it. You know how very bad I feel today, right?
Hyeong, are you waiting for a phone call?
No. What happened?
You're checking your phone every minute. Don't you know?
Drive the car and don't get distracted while driving.
Yes.
The hands are the problem.
Thank you.
Now do it again, then...
I'm very sorry. Wait a moment. I'm very sorry.
-=Tae Hui ajussi=-
=Hello? Hello? Hello? Just talk, Officer Hwang.=
Why are you answering her phone?
Why are you only talking briefly. I am your hyeong.
Why are you answering the phone? Quickly give it to Ja Eun.
If I could give it to her, I would have already given it to her.
We went to see a movie. Are you busy, Officer Hwang Tae Hui?
What?
So, you're very busy. Then I won't disturb you today. Just continue being busy.
Hello... hello...
Please sit. Today I'm giving you free service.
Thank you. We should have confirmed the schedule first. We have to wait a long time.
Then, why don't we just have our meeting here?
Coming all the way here, you still want to work?
All right.
About that... at the zoo. I'm sorry. It was embarrassing and awkward, right?
No. And why are you apologizing to me? Why are you saying sorry?
He is the person I like. Officer Hwang is the person I like.
I know.
You already knew? I thought you didn't know.
How could I not know? I can read it all over you face.
Last time at the zoo, when Officer Hwang came, don't you know that you just completely changed into a different person?
Me? No I didn't. I thought it wasn't obvious.
You just don't know yourself.
It's so obvious?
Seriously, why do you like him?
I'm not sure. It's just that my body reacted to him first.
Your body reacted first?
Yes. My heart throbbed by itself first.
Hello.
Where are you now?
=Here? Cinema.=
I'm asking you which cinema.
Here at Poodle's Cinema.
Okay, I know.
You have returned.
Have a seat.
Are you doing homework?
It's not homework. I'm writing a diary. Mother said I must get used to Korean language by writing in the diary everyday.
Is that so?
Guk Su.
Yes.
That day at the hospital. Why did you do that? Why did you suddenly push that little kid?
No. I'm not blaming you. I'm just curious. Tell me.
He teased me and called me African, and he kicked me.
So, it's like that. That's why you pushed him.
I was wrong. It wasn't my intention to do that.
What are you saying? What did you do wrong? He laughed at you like that, and you wanted to endure it?
No. You didn't do anything wrong. If it were me, I also would have not endured it. You did good.
But Guk Su, using fists is not the correct way.
If it's the other child who does something wrong first, but you use your fists to hit him, in the end, it is your fault.
So in the future, when someone laughs at you, do not push him or hit him.
You should tell them with dignity, "It looks like you don't know. I am Korean",
"my father, Hwang Tae Sik's son, Hwang Guk Su".
Yes.
And we don't need to move. So, let's go to school first.
Father will give you some instructions at school tomorrow. You just wait.
You can go to the same school with Ha Na.
Yes.
Guk Su, did I make you wait too long?
I'm sorry, but I don't hate you, Guk Su, it's myself I hate.
I hate myself. You may not understand, but just remember this little thing.
I absolutely don't hate you, Guk Su. Come here.
You're really my son because you cry a lot.
That should not happen. Men can't cry.
Yes. Just cry for today. You have permission to do it today. I'll let it fall today.
Yes.
It's okay. Everything will get better. Don't worry.
Hwang Tae Sik. He's now mature.
All right.
Is it really bad?
Excuse me.
You all know Team Leader Cha Su Yeong, right?
How do you do? You are Team Leader's mother, right? It's been a while since we last met.
It seems like I remember you.
Yes, Team Leader's parents, right? How do you do?
Yes. It's nice to see you all. Everyone is working hard.
Did our Team Leader Cha go out? It seems like she is not around in the office.
Yes, she went for an interview. You didn't ask her?
No. We were only passing by and it was convenient to come over.
Then, where is Reporter Hwang?
Reporter Hwang? You mean Reporter Hwang Tae Beom?
Yes. Reporter Hwang Tae Beom.
Reporter Hwang is in the meeting room. But, Mother, you're looking for Reporter Hwang?
Don't tell me that Team Leader and Reporter Hwang are really dating?
What?
Choi sunbae! We're sorry. It's a big topic in our group when our Team Leader will get married. (Sunbae - senior colleague, mentor)
So, Reporter Hwang is single?
Of course. He would never deceive us on that. Reporter Hwang is really not a bad person.
How can they pretend such thing? Why did they never say that...
What was Su Yeong thinking?
Like I said, I also don't have any idea. What exactly are they doing? Are they going nuts? Where are they?
What's wrong with them?
These are some good information. Look at it.
Did you get back home safely yesterday?
I was really drunk, wasn't I? I was never like that before, it seems I've become weaker.
I want to finish this report.
Okay, then I'll be going.
Yes.
Son-in-law Hwang.
Ah, you are working.
Yes. Why did you suddenly come here?
We we're just passing by and on our way here, we wanted to see you.
Yes.
Let's leave first. You haven't eaten dinner yet, right?
Why? Is there something wrong?
No, I'm all right.
Let's go, Mother-in-law.
Mother-in-law.
Ajussi!
Let's go.
Ajussi, wait a second.
I said let's go. Let's go and talk.
Ajussi!
Why aren't you listening to what I'm saying? I told you to come with me quickly.
Don't just say "you" to her. Even I never say something like that to her.
What?
If you want to go, just go, Ja Eun. I can see that Officer Hwang is ready to beat me up.
Today's date will end here. Thank you for today.
Ajussi!
Let's talk. I said we have to talk. I said let's talk.
Let go. I really didn't expect that you would be this type of person.
Me. What kind of person am I?
Violent, narrow minded, good for nothing, pathetic, petty, so childish and selfish. I never know what's on your mind.
Why am I like this? It's because of whom that I am like this?
You said that sentence. What does it mean? "Yes. Let's go." What does it mean?
Other than that, I don't understand anything except "yes" or "no". You should at least let me know what you mean.
Why must you force me to go crazy?
Tell me directly. Do you like me or not? Then I can clearly understand.
I can only understand clear and direct words. So answer me quickly.
I don't want to be crazy anymore.
I'm already prepared enough. Quickly answer me.
I said I am prepared. Quickly answer me. Answer me.
Ajussi, are you a fool? Why would I want to return to the farm?
Even if I die, I couldn't forgive Ajumma. Why would I want to forgive her?
I have to forgive Ajumma, then I can see you. I returned to the farm so that I can see you.
How could I say that with words like "yes" or "no" for you to understand?
Just wishing to see you, I also became crazy. In one day, do you know how many times I wanted to see you? I wanted to listen to your voice.
I wanted you to buy me coffee. So I can't hate Ajumma and also can't sell off the farm...
Freeze.
