New Tales of Gisaeng
Episode 7
Poetry sounds nicer through a woman's voice, doesn't it?
Back then, there used to be... "Wooden Horse and Girl"...
By Park In Hee.
Yes.
If and when you visit Buyonggak, I will have a girl with a pretty voice...
Recite "Wooden Horse and Girl" to you.
But in exchange, director, you sing for me.
Aigo, it seems you continue to...
Ask me to do the things I have no confidence for.
What about love?
Have you no confidence for love either?
Come by when you're feeling tired and weary.
Everyone goes through a time when they are exhausted, feeling things are hard, right?
I will be a comfortable friend to you then.
You like chocolate cake, right?
Yes.
I heard you didn't buy any clothes.
Right.
Don't worry about money.
And just get yourself something you like.
I'll go to the Myeongdong department store tomorrow.
It's yummy.
It's positively different from the neighborhood cakes.
It's true.
It melts on its own.
How nice it would be if life was sweet like this cake.
Sa Ran and Gong Joo, both.. you will surely live well because your faces give off noble aura.
You can't fake that.
Me too. Someone once told me I will prosper late in life.
It's true! Honey, your face is a face that calls for a good late-age.
And me, as well.
Where I lived before, the neighbor ahjussi reads faces.
He told me a few things, and now that I think about it...
Your facial appearance and countenance is exactly the kind that marry into a noble family to live nobly.
Well, in that case, I would have no other wishes.
You never know about a person's life.
If, by chance, a son from a high-up family...
Tells you he likes you and proposes to you, you should regard it as a fated love destined for you.
Regard it as that.
Don't play too hard to get, and just accept him.
It's in your pillars and it's your prosperity.
There's no one like that these days.
They meet others who are of the same background.
You never know about a person though.
Just look at Heo Gagyo.
Look how he went from a fan repairman to become so popular and so rich.
It's true.
Some things are fated no matter what.
Me too. When I was a maiden.
They told me my pillars will have me marry twice.
And look what's happened to me.
As the elders say, you cannot escape your fate.
So cunning. Putting on that prim air.
Is that Gong Joo?
Yes... Okay.
Turn off the television for a moment.
My friend Eun Sook's husband...
You know how she's ill and weak these days?
He tends to her.
And tells her, if you die, I will follow you and die too.
Is following someone to death so easy?
What about my Mr. Kim Shi Jo? What will you do?
You don't talk about such things.
Regardless! Don't change the topic.
You want me to follow you and die?
Is that what you want to hear?
Your honest thought.
And what about you?
Hong Ah will.. hm.. not sure.
Even if I want to follow you and die, I don't have the energy, it seems.
As if you need energy to die.
If you want to put a rope...
Don't say such nonsensical things.
A woman can still live a long time after she's left alone.
But a widower left alone, can't.
That applies to other old men.
But for me, it's not like you tend to me in any way, that I wouldn't be able to.
You can laugh right now?
It must be son coming home.
Chairman Ah's son.
He asked Ra Ra to meet tomorrow.
What are you thinking about?
One of these days, with Director Park...
Let's go over to Buyonggak, together with the spouses.
To Buyonggak?
Why there all of a sudden?
My friends...
Keep telling to me to go to Buyonggak with them for a drink.
But going there just with men alone isn't quite right.
If I go, I want to go with you.
You're not feeling up for it?
If I go, the people there might get nervous, and it'll be uncomfortable.
What's uncomfortable about it? We're going as couples to have dinner together.
If you're not up for it, I'll just go with my friends.
I'll go.
This Friday.
Have you already set a date with Director Park?
No, I'm asking for your opinion on the matter first.
Ahjooma.
Have you been well?
Is it the director's hanbok?
Yes.
I'll bring it to her.
Are you fatigued.
No.
Sit down.
Chairman of Taeryeong. I heard he fed a lot of alcohol to the girls again today.
It seems so.
If he does that again, I won't accept his reservations anymore.
He's fond of toying around.
The matter you went out for.. Did it go well?
Yup. I told him, so he won't pretend to be unaware of it
I'm coming in.
Okay.
Why are you getting up?
I should go and sleep.
The new menu today.. The response seems good.
Really?
Yup.
Let's go have our fortunes read tomorrow.
Fortune?
Joo says she knows a place that's amazingly accurate.
She's been there before?
Her girl cousin.
At 4th year of marriage, she was still without child.
But she was told she would surely have one this year, and guess what, she's pregnant.
What are you going to ask about?
Just stuff.
Go with Joo. I am not too comfortable at those kinds of places.
Let's go together. It's more fun when there's many of us.
Ah Mi must be going too though, right?
Yup.
Then three is enough.
Oh, you mean girl.
And I have things I need to do tomorrow too.
I agreed to do various shoppings with mom tomorrow.
I see.
I really do need to buy you a pin.
No, there's no need.
That pin broke and I was going to throw it away.
I have plans to meet Da-mo tomorrow.
Then go with him. To see the fortune-teller.
In the evening.
You should ask when it would be good for you two to marry.
I'm planning on it.
Okay then, if you hear anything good, tell me.
Okay.
That hoodlum.
One, two, three, four. Two, two...
Three, four.
One step.
Another step. One step, another step.
How was it?
You dance well.
That's not good dancing. Just losing face.
What is the trouble?
You're so stiff. Like a piece of firewood.
You're the one who was like a firewood. Your knees were making ddook ddook sounds too.
My legs do make a little ddook ddook sound.
But look how flexible my waist is.
You can't fight it when you're over 50.
I just danced from a customer's perspective.
The customers that come here.
The ones who are in their 20s and 30s are less than a count of ten fingers.
The majority are in their 40s and 50s.
The customer is the king.
Whether he is a firewood or a piece of laundry.
You people just need to
round off the match no matter what.
Flexibility!
Your mind is at the bean patch (you're distracted).
No, it's at the right patch.
Teacher Kyle is here.
Tell him to come in here for a minute.
Kyle.
Oh, hi, everyone.
Hi.
Do you know how to do the blues dance?
A little.
We're practicing dancing right now.
But this Miss is so stiff, and her body doesn't move along.
Can you dance with her once?
It'll be an honor for me, of course.
Hey, dance with him once.
Do an electrifying dance, Teacher Kyle.
Let's dance too.
You be the lead, unnie.
How is it, Kyle?
Does it feel electrifying?
It's not electrifying.
It's thumping and pounding. My heart.
This is gonna lead to big trouble.
Miss Baek. Your gaze is totally different from when you danced with me.
Of course!
What's of course? What's of course?
Ahjuhssi, when you open your mouths, you break.
I'll be back.
The aroma is great.
Why so soon?
Oh, I'm meeting some friends first.
If you don't meet your friends for a day, does your mouth grow thorns?
I didn't meet them yesterday.
That Buddhist nun is so amazingly accurate.
My friend came here too.
And she said her husband was doing stuff with a long-haired woman. And it was true!
Oh my goodness.
Is it your first time here?
Yes.
Omo. Ra Ra.
Omo. Auntie.
Hello.
Yes.
What did you come here for?
To have their fortune told, of course.
My auntie is truly no aid to me.
Let's just come back tomorrow.
Annoying.
Is it good?
Daughter-in-law, you have no use for the car tomorrow, right?
Right. Do you plan to go out?
Yes, for a performance.
With a friend?
A young friend. You know, the one who comes to dance every now and then.
How modest and gentle she is.
How old is she?
Oh, I never asked her. She graduated this year, so around twenty-five, probably.
Oh, she must be at her prettiest age then.
Age is one thing, but she is a born beauty.
I'll have to have a look too, to see just how beautiful she is.
She'll be coming by tomorrow.
Oh, make a restaurant reservation for me. For Karam.
Hello?
Yes, it's Geum Eo San.
Yes, Director.
Four, for Friday night.
Is a reservation possible?
Of course. If the reservations are full, I can have my room prepared too.
It'll be couple with couple.
We probably only need one Miss to take care of our table.
So the madams, together?
Yes. If I bring up the Buyonggak issue to my wife.
I worry some unsavory words might come your way.
So let's pretend I never met with you.
And you bring it up gently on that day.
I understand what you're saying.
Then, we'll be there at 7:30.
Just as customers.
To have a quiet meal there.
Yes, I understand. Is there a particular dish you like?
I eat everything well.
Thank you, Director.
Yes, please hang up.
Miss Kitchen Head.
Yes?...
Starting tomorrow, could I be in charge of the egg-battered dishes?
If you would put me in charge, I can do it well.
Discuss it with Manager No.
Okay.
I ran into Ra Ra just now.
Where at? She said she was going out with friends though.
At the shaman's.
A shaman's?
Didn't you know?
Watch out for her better.
How can a maiden go around to the shaman's so fearlessly?
Did I make her go?
Your tone sounds like you're criticizing me.
You should at least know what she is out doing.
How am I supposed to know something that she doesn't tell me? I'm not a psychic either.
I used to tell my mother everything I did.
Every single thing.
Everything is my fault it seems.
What brings her here again?
Did you have an argument?
She said she ran into Ra Ra at a shaman's.
A shaman's?
Yes.
Why did she go there?
She probably went to get her fortune told.
Were you not aware of it?
She said she was going out with some friends before meeting chairman Ah's son, and she went there.
They say that you can't fool blood, and she's just like her...
The housekeeper went to the market.
I thought Kyung Soo's mom was here.
Hello.
Oh, yes.
Where are you coming from?
From school.
But it's cold out today.
I left my coat in the car.
I think I shouldn't have majored in dance. I regret it.
Why?
I started because I like it, but there aren't too many places to dance.
To be honest, I feel uneasy lately.
You have such a talent for it, so I'm sure things will work out smoothly.
Be more optimisitc.
How much is the rent here?
Why?
Just wondering.
You don't have to worry about those kinds of things.
How long do you have to ride to get over the fear of horses?
It's good to keep riding, and various horses.
I hear that every horse has a different personality.
Of course.
Let's go riding this week.
Is there another reason you wanted to see me?
The reason I wanted to meet like this today,
The plates are hot.
Okay.
Go ahead and eat.
I'll wait until it cools a little.
Go ahead with what you were saying.
Do you think that we are compatible?
Are you saying that we aren't?
To be honest, I don't think we are.
Shall I say that there isn't that attraction or...?
I'll just make my point, I mean I'll make my request.
Say that you dumped me.
I wish you would do that.
I don't care if you say that I disgust you or whatever excuse you want.
If you were going to say that, you should have said it over the phone.
Are you dating someone that your parents don't know of?
I am not seeing anyone.
I see.
Go ahead and eat. I'm going by myself.
No, at least to the door.
It's quite alright.

When are you going to see him again?
I'm not going to see him again.
Why not?
After talking to him, we don't have much in common. He isn't my type.
So then?
I ended it, and he said he understands.
You should still at least meet a few times.
I did see him a few times. Including the group date, this was the fourth.
I want to think about marriage in two or three years.
Chairman Ah's son rejected her.
You were right, dear.
Were there a lot of customers today, too?
They always do well there.
Mom?
Flower delivery!
Is this where Dan Sa Ran lives?
Yes.
Please sign for me.
Sis.
Sign this.
Who sent these?
It should say on the card.
Thank you. Take care.
What's with the flowers?
Someone sent them to sister.
[Tombe la neige.]
Isn't that French?... Who sent it?
I think it's from the event where I danced a job.
But you don't do events.
By the professor's request.
Aren't you going to take them in with you?
Leave them.
He sure does all kinds of stuff.
They smell so wonderful.
You like flowers, too, dear?
Of course, am I not a woman?
All women like flowers.
You must like flowers, too, then.
Not really.
Did you talk to each other enough?
She said that I wasn't that great.
You?
I'm sure she was just kidding.
Really. She said she wasn't attracted to me.
Did you do something wrong?
What wrong is there to do? We just ate together.
I wasn't that interested either, so...
I'm going to verify it.
Okay.
Didn't you say that all women are smitten with you?
Not this time.
But Ra Ra's expression that day was really positive.
Women are so coy. I don't know what they're thinking.
I can't understand it.
Did you find out?
Tombe la neige is French. It means snow is falling.
Snow is falling? Is it a poem or what?
There's a Chanson song called "Tombe La Neige".
Are you sure?
Of course, I found it on the internet.
Is it the name of a foreign company? Tombe La Neige.
A company sends flowers because you dance for them once?
And your sister isn't a professional dancer.
But she doesn't have any reason to lie about it.
You don't know that.
Diana. I'm done washing.
Okay!
Let's just see what great girl you end up with.
Do I lack in looks? In family background?
That's it! It could be that.
It's here!
[Oh Jin Am] "It's me, what are you doing?"
I suppose, a mere flower basket wasn't going to cut it.
I'll be back.
Are you going out?
A date.
With whom?
Hey, what do you think of this?
It's not good enough for you. Why, did you meet some younger-aged grandpa?
I'm going to see a show, with a pretty young lady.
That young lady who came to dance at our house?
That's right.
Where? At the legendary hometown?
Legendary hometown?
Don't the ahjumma refer to art venues as legendary hometown?
No, the traditional music house.
Then it must be an evening show.
What's with the interest?
I was going to drive you if I was able to.
We have Driver Park. Why should you worry about it?
If it ends too late, you'll be tired.
It's supposed to end by 9.
I see.
Did something good happen to you?
I just had a work idea come to me.
The receipt.
Did you buy some clothes yesterday?
Yes.
Something you're pleased with?
Yes. But it's a little expensive.
How much?
$280
Of course we can give you that much.
Let's see it.
Ahjumma.
Yes?
Yesterday you were asking the head chef if you could do the battered dishes.
Ah, well,
You know the term mutiny?
Mutiny?
You never saw it?
What does it mean?
When the inferior steps on the top.
I didn't step on anyone though.
Whether you should grill the battered food, or whether you should boil the soup.
I decide that.
Why did you bypass me to go straight to the kitchen head?
I am your supervisor, not the kitchen head.
Ah, I was short-sighted.
I thought the head chef decided everything.
Since coming into this work,
I spent a whole two years washing the dishes and pots.
Cleaning the ingredients for a year, then chopping for two years,
then cooking the vegetables.
It took me nearly ten years before I got to stand in front of the stove.
But what?
You've been here less than half a year and you're going to work the stove?
I said I would pan-grill the battered food. I didn't say I would mend the stove.
Standing in front of the gas range is exactly that!
Why the... Another thing!
You have a way of using informal speech with me.
We respect senority here.
If you keep this up, we won't be able to work together. This is where we make fire.
Where knives are used.
Hence, the kitchen is more bloody and more rigid than the army.
I'm your manager. You want to fight me?
No, not at all. It's because I don't know anything.
Ignorance is not an offense. Please forgive me.
I will work even more diligently from now on, so please teach me lots.
Don't do anything else, but work on making rice porridge.
Yes!
Is someone ill again?
Han Song.
That douchebag wench.
The red chili powder.
Yes, ma'am!
Should I just dump this on your head?
You chewed a little gum in your time,
but I am the one who chewed on chicle and played big before you.
Oh, the beauty of the world is none other...
Auntie must have told you.
Yeah!
What in the world is a maiden doing at a place like that?
You told me you were seeing friends.
I met up with Joo Ah and she wanted to go.
Who else was there? I heard there were three of you.
Don't ever go to those kinds of places again.
Ok.
Keep your promise.
Even I've never gone to such a place all my life, but you youngsters... oh my.
It was just for fun.
You start going there out of curiousity,
then you get yourself in debt and all sorts of stuff.
Get yourselves conned in more ways than you can imagine.
Oh my gosh, how do you know so much about it?
Didn't you see the documentaries about the victims, on TV?
They're exaggerating things.
The shaman's place, or the fortune-teller's.. If you dare to go to either places, I will stop all your credit cards.
Mark my words.
Okay.
And now, tell me honestly.
Are you really not interested in Chairman Ah's son?
To be honest...
Don't tell anyone, since it's still just my guess.
It seems to me, I think he's gay.
Gay?
It made me feel bad, so I just ended things right away.
What did he do?
I can tell that he likes guys, but he's meeting girls because of his family.
Are you going somewhere?
Oh, to a friend's.
Get in.
It's a bit far.
It's okay, I have a lot of time.
How about your grandmother's surgery?
The day after tomorrow.
It must be difficult for you.
I'm living like a noble actually. I don't have to worry about living costs.
The rent money is coming in well?
Yes. Are you going somewhere to visit someone ill?
Yeah, a friend.
Nothing serious. Just a little cold and body aches.
She likes flowers, so I brought it from our place.
It's the young dancer, isn't it?
Yes.
Do you not know her name?
Oh, I never asked her. Professor Park introduced her to me.
What school is Professor Park at?
I think it's Shilla University.
If it's Shilla,
I think Director Geum's daughter graduated from there, too.
Really?
They might even know each other.
Hello.
Come on in.
Come in for a bit.
Yes, come in and have something to drink.
Why the flowers?
I thought grandmother might like flowers.
What money does a student have?
You gave me too much last time.
That much is a given amount, since you come all the way here to dance.
Sit down.
Yes.
My daughter-in-law.
Nice to meet you.
Yes.
Are all dance majors this pretty?
Your compliment is too generous.
If you are Professor Park's student, Shilla U?
Yes, I just graduated this year.
Since things just ended with Da Mo, there's no need to bring up Ra Ra.
Ah then, would you like to have coffee or tea?
Just some warm water please.
What is your name?
It's Dan Sa Ran.
That's right, it was Dan Sa Ran.
With my old age, I keep forgetting things.
Madam, your phone is ringing. Shall I bring it to you?
Go ahead and answer it first.
Please escort her well today, my mother-in-law.
Yes, ma'am.
I made reservations at a restaurant near the theatre.
Do you like Korean food?
I do.
After you watch the show, if you enjoyed it, applaud a lot.
They say applauding is good for your health.
Oh, okay.
Aigoo.
How nice it would be to have a granddaughter like her.
Subtitles by Team Giseang @ Viki.com.
M..m...madam head chef.
Hmmm?
You know that term mutiny? What exactly does it mean?
When someone of lower rank tries to usurp a higher-up.
Why?
I was just suddenly curious what it meant.
It's nice getting out after so long, with a young friend.
Please call me whenever you wish to come out.
If you don't mind, I'll accompany you.
Do you not have a boyfriend?
No.
Should I introduce you to someone?
No. For me, work is priorty over marriage.
I need to get into a dance company no matter what.
Not only is work important, marriage is important, too, for a woman.
If you're not planning to stay unmarried, getting married late means having children late.
That is true.
How many people are in your family?
My parents and a sister, a younger sister.
It's quite small.
I was always envious of friends who had grandparents.
A grandchild's love comes from grandparents.
Do you not have many extended family either?
No.
I'll tell you a funny story.
The dance student brought it thinking grandmother would like flowers.
Did she say she bought it?
Of course she bought it, would she have picked them somewhere?
Why that chick, seriously.
Daddy's home.
Andre!
Get some rest.
Did you play a lot?
Cutie, cutie.
You're going to have some dinner before washing up, aren't you?
I know! I know!
Did you play with him?
Yes. You should change your clothes.
Do you have something to say?
Yes.
If it's work, later.
It isn't about work.
Father, pay more attention to mother.
Do I not pay any attention? Is it your birthday, dear?
No, it isn't.
You don't even know her birthday?
It's in the Fall.
But, then,
Since grandma wasn't here,
you didn't even glance at us and went straight to Andre.
So what?
Don't we amount to as much as Andre?
There is such a thing as hierarchy. Can a dog be ranked higher than people?
So you want me to hold your mother first?
That's not what I'm saying. Just acknowledge us.
You nit-picking at everything, how tiresome.
Alright, he gets your point.
What do you think Andre thinks about all this?
How can a dog think?
You're ranking the dog the highest.
Because you treat him that way, he looks down at the other family members.
He doesn't even look at us when we come out.
It's because I adore him.
Dogs follow those who adore them.
That's right. You love Andre more than mother or me.
Be jealous about real things, buddy.
It isn't jealousy. Do you think, as a son, it would feel good?
I feel like this, and mom it goes without saying.
I'm okay.
The way I see it it is.
Mother is the one who tends to all of father's needs, but he gives all his love to the dog only.
What is mother to you?
Why should you be quibbling about that?
No one knows about the affairs between a couple.
You ought to express it.
What good are your thoughts if they are not shown?
Are you chastising me, right now?
Father, you don't know what is really important and precious.
That's enough.
You never acknowledge mother for anything.
When grandmother is here, it's grandmother and then Andre.
Get up!
I've never seen you compliment or praise her. Not even once.
You only talk about her faults.
What do you mean I...?
Just like on Sunday.
If you eat spaghetti al nero di seppia, of course it could get smeared on your mouth.
What's a big deal about eating and smearing? You criticized mother comparing her to Dr. Geum's wife.
Just worry about doing well yourself.
I am going to do well.
You did so well that you got dumped by Ra Ra, huh?
Wait and see. I'll be better than you.
You're a good son. But you're not a good father or husband.
What more can I do than this?
Not with stuff, but with your heart!
Just half of how you treat Andre would be enough.
Why are you like this?
Every day it's Andre, Andre.
How can you love a dog to death more than a wife?
People who love their pets are like that.
What do you mean everyone? A person should be first. Not the dog.
Please don't be like that to your father.
From a son's perspective, I feel upset.
You're not just a so-so woman.
He doesn't know to be grateful at all.
Even if we were to make a sting about it, let me be the one to do it.
You spent your life looking after a father and a mother-in-law,
and now you're going to tend to a dog too?
What? It plays with him? Did father play with me when I was little?
You...starting tomorrow, don't bother coming to the office.
Become a person first.
Did I do something that a person shouldn't do?
Me, if my father ever said that this mountain is a river,
I said, yes, it is a river, I did.
Grandfather treasured and loved grandmother.
What do you know, buddy?
I'm all grown up, so why wouldn't I know?
When he was young, your grandfather also drowned himself in work.
He made sure his future was taken care of.
I never didn't look after my future. I merely said what I needed to say as a son.
You think you are so great, but you are far from it.
I'll give some thoughts to it. What I lack and why I'm far from it.
I'll process your resignation, so understand that.
Honey!
It's fine.
You, hurry up and go beg your father's forgiveness.
What did I do wrong?
You got fired, don't you know that?
I know. I'll have some fun and play.
What if he doesn't reinstate you? Forever?
Then I'll just go and work at another company. Something rewarding. Is our company the only one in the Republic of Korea?
Someone like me will be called from all directions.
You're killing me! Da Mo, please, for my sake.
I'm in this house because of you. If it weren't for you, I'd have moved out long ago.
Let's eat dinner, I have to go out later.
Father, I was wrong.
Aren't you eating?
Leave or else. You're shedding.
How dare you speak like that in front of me.
He thinks he's the eldest son in this family.
Where do you live?
Jung Dam villa. No, not to Jung Dam.
To my father's house. I have to see my daughter.
Where is your father's house?
Please wait a little bit.
Okay.
Uncle!
Our Ra Ra.
Did you come alone?
Did you go somewhere?
The health club.
It's dangerous to be out late.
I bring a car anyway.
Come on in.
No, no.
Now that I've seen our Ra Ra, it's enough.
This is all I have.
No, it's okay. You have to pay the driver too.
I have that money. I'll only feel good if you accept it.
Want me to give you a credit card instead?
Thank you.
Hey, Ra Ra,
Yes?
Everything...
Whatever you want, ask me, everything.
Okay.
And don't starve yourself dieting. Eat whatever you want. I'll lose it for you.
You mean liposuction?
No, not that. There's something that gets great results without any pain whatsoever.
It melts all the fat. So don't restrict yourself, just eat whatever you want.
Health is most important.
Okay.
Go on in.
They'll be disappointed if you just go. Grandma, too.
Your grandmother is sleeping now, I know.
I have to go get some sleep, too. And get to work.
Then you should get going.
Let me see you go in first.
Go ahead and get in.
I said for you to go in, you'll catch cold.
Ok.
Bye.

Wait a minute..
Thank you.
Yeah, Dong Too.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm not the one in charge of that.
Your sister?
Yes.
Hey Sa Ran! Where did the flowers go?
A friend's house.
Why?
Ask her later.
Sister, the phone.
You can answer it.
Who is it?
Hello?
Hello.
Yes, this is Dan Sa Ran's phone.
Who is this?
I'm her sister.
Could you put your sister on?
Just a moment.
Hello.
It's me. Ah Da Mo.
Yes, professor.
Come down for a bit, to the first floor.
Just go, I have nothing to say.
Should I go up and ring the bell?
Your temperament isn't one that allows you to expose that precious face of yours so easily.
And if I expose it?
Just wait, one minute.
Hello?
What?
Thirty minutes.
I'll be in my car.
What did his voice sound like?
Nice.
How old do you think he is?
Young.
She's putting on a show.
If it was a boyfriend, his name would've come up.
Do you think?
Honey, wash up before sleeping.
Jackpot! Jackpot! Jackpot!
What wrong did the flowers do to be returned?
Since the motive of the sender isn't pure.
I did send them with a sincere heart. And I owed you and apology, too.
Are you looking at my legs?
They are so long.
Plenty long for double-legging (two-timing).
What two-timing?
You have to date Ra Ra and send me flowers.
Aren't you exhausted?
I got dumped yesterday. Didn't you hear?
Who did?
I did, who else would it be?
There's a cafe nearby. Let's go and talk, for just half an hour.
It's late.
Then let's meet in the morning.
I got fired, too.
I have nothing but time now.
Have a good night's sleep.
And I'll see you tomorrow, miss.
I'll be here by 11. And answer your phone.
Did you enjoy the show?
It was really enjoyable.
Hurry up and wash up and go to bed. It's late.
Good night.
Are you not feeling well somewhere?
Our home needs you to be here.
Why?
Since you weren't here, they had a round of battle. Between the father and the son.
Over what?
He told Da Mo not to come to the office. That he's processing his resignation.
Mother, you need to get involved.
He won't listen to me.
Who was at fault?
The father and the son are the same, in my eyes.
Son wouldn't process a resignation over something small.
Da Mo did something wrong again didn't he?
No to be honest, everything Da Mo said was true if you think about it rationally.
And your husband's irrational?
Mother, to you, he's your son, so of course he would be precious and great always.
No, you're the one who raised your son with only yeses.
They say you punish the one you love the most.
How can I spank him with you around?
Would you have sat still if I punished him?
The one who always got anxious and worked up over Da Mo wasn't me.
It was you, mother.
Hey, let's do this then.
Hey, yet another day is going by, today.
Let's go have late-night snacks and the karaoke house, since it's been a long time.
Should we?
Dan Se?
I'm not going.
Why not? You have to relieve your stress every now and then.
I have no stress.
Are you not a human? Are you a god?
We'll pay.
I don't know how to play.
If you don't know how to play, then just watch how we play.
We need someone to watch and applaud for us, the ones playing, to feel more thrilled.
That's right.
It's definitely another tale.
Who is it at this hour?
By chance, did you borrow money from someone?
No?
Who's there?
Who's there!?
It's me.
Sohn Ja. Is it you, Sohn Ja?
Yes.
What happened?
Grandmother... passed away.
What?
Really?
How?
I had a strange dream, so I went to grandma's room.
What should we do?
First, call 911.
Hurry. Clothes.
Why didn't you answer your phone?
I turn it off when I'm sleeping.
Hello?
Poor Sohn Ja.
If they do CPR or surgery on her or something, wouldn't she wake up again?
If her breath halted altogether, it would be impossible.
Why?
I'm gonna go.
Stay put.
It's better not to see.
A dead person...oh.
You've probably seen one.
You can't!
Don't leave me!
Mother isn't going to eat. She says she doesn't feel like it.
Why doesn't she have an appetite?
Is she ill?
My heart needs to be at ease in order for food to go down.
Why is your heart not at ease?
You're going to process Da Mo's resignation letter. I heard.
Do you have any headache medicine?
We do.
Do worry about Da Mo, I'll take care of everything.
How can I not worry?
He never went through any hardships so he doesn't know what hardship is, or to be grateful of his parents.
Pacify him gently.
Is he a child? To have to pacify him?
You're too hard on him, and that's why he's fighting back with his stubborness.
He wants to outwin me.
What do you mean outwin you? He just has things he wants to say too.
Regardless, I won't let anything happen to him.
Don't worry.
Secretary Kim says he has something to report to you.
Yes, ok. I Got it.
That rascal's not making his face shown.
Is he still sleeping?
Please have our son come down.
He left at 6. With his riding bag.
Aren't you hungry?
Yes.
Being hungry is one thing. Acting sick is another.
I hope your hard work is a success.
I put in the way, so when Da Mo comes home, tell him to plead forgiveness.
Mother, please help me convince him.
He doesn't listen to me.
I'm going to have a seat here.
Ahhhhh.
Coffee tastes best after walking.
That's a relief.
Sit down.
Yes.
Is coffee better than honey water?
I need to stop drinking coffee, too.
Ah, why?
Caffeine robs calcium from the bones.
Bones, what?
Something's wrong with your bones?
It isn't like when I was young for sure.
But still. Director, you are beautiful and healthy.
For us, if we lose our health, it is the end.
Director, I have something I'd like to tell you.
Yes.
There's a member of the kitchen staff who comes in and out of our room at her whim.
It is not right.
Even when we're sleeping, she opens the door wide whenever she has something to say.
I'm about to faint.
Manager No?
Tell her yourself.
It's useless. You know how her temperament is.
Please don't tell her I said anything to you.
Just, maybe have her be careful, since the words are out.
I understand.
Look at the dog.
Ow, my back.
Awww, Pretty.
What is its name?
It's Dol Se.
Dol Se?
It doesn't go with your face.
When you look so noble. [ Dol Se = common servant boy name ]
That...that dog.
Grandma, I didn't even say it in a bad way. I said it nicely.
Father, I have something to tell you.
Please pay some attention to Mother.
So do you know what Father said then?
There isn't anything that he hasn't been paying attention to. Then he asked if it was her birthday.
Mother's birthday is in October you know. How can he not know the birthday of a wife he's been with forever?
How can I not say this and that?
How can he not even glance at his wife and child and just pay all that attention to a dog?
He adores it to death if you see him.
Because it is a dog.
I couldn't bear to watch him humiliating mother like that in front of Secretary Kim or others, and that's why.
If it makes him that upset to hear one little thing,
What about the one who has to put up with it everyday?
Does he think I'll have hard feelings if he makes me quit work?
You know how your father is.
Of course I know. He thinks he's the most important on earth and heaven.
To lose this battle is winning in the end.
Compromise a little. Should the father be the one compromising?
Mom compromised all her life. And this is the result.
Whatever father said, she treated it like the Lord's words. She's been treating him like the Emperor.
But does he acknowledge it?
Now she's getting pushed out by the dog too.
Hearing your words... I do feel sad.
You are a man too, but men cannot be perfect.
They always lack at least one thing.
Whether they stray, or if they are not successful.
Or if they are drunk, or gambling, or violent tempered.
Your father isn't actually violent.
He's never laid a hand on your mother.
You should overlook his being a little clueless.
In return, she has never had to labor or struggle in her life.
I told you that I said it nicely.
Anyway, nothing good will come of making a big deal out of this.
When your father gets home, just tell him that you were wrong.
But, Why?
So he won't make you resign.
It isn't regrettable to me at all.
What do you mean it isn't regrettable?
You got to go up in rank fast, one by one, so you can take over the company. Who else is going to inherit it?
At father's temperament, he probably already made arrangements.
Call him then.
I want to take a little break, too.
I worked my bones off to get noticed by father.
I'm going to enjoy some hobbies and meet up with friends.
And I'll travel to Africa, and date, too.
How many have you met, tell me honestly.
I said that I haven't dated.
This little rascal, are you a playboy?
Grandma, a man's dream is to become a playboy.
Look at him.
I'm hungry for love.
Do you want to gain weight?
Uncle told me to eat whatever I want, and that he's going to take off my fat.
Did you talk on the phone?
No.
Actually he stopped by last night.
When I got back from the health club.
Where?
In front of the house.
He said he had a nice drink.
So what did he say?
Are you going out?
Yes.
Your friends are all probably at work, where are you going?
Mom, I'm not a mama's boy.
Geez.
Don't stay out all night.
Yes.
There won't be a wake. She'll be put into a coffin tomorrow.
Mm, Joo Ah.
Did you talk to Ra Ra?
No.
What happened to her?
Yesterday I didn't get a call from her all day, which isn't like her at all.
I was curious so I called her a little while ago.
Hey, do you think Ah Da Mo is gay?
Gay?
Yes.
She said that she thinks he's gay and ended it.
She must have been dumped.
And because of her self-esteem, she using the excuse that he's gay.
I'm getting another call.
I'll call you back later.
Okay.
Hello.
I'm here at the subdivision.
How long should I wait?
Are you going to giving me some tea upstairs or do you want to get in?
I'll ask you a question.
Would it be okay if we went somewhere to talk?
If you don't wish to, we can just talk here.
Are you hungry?
No.
What number are you in your family?
The youngest?
Where are we going to go?
Downtown Seoul.
Really?
Are you sure?
This area has a lot of fat.
It's going to be a little cold.
Yes.
If you get bored, you can watch the TV or read a book.
Yes.
Doctor.
Madam is here.
Did you not know?
Father drafted out his will.
Will?
Yes.
When?
One of my friends is the wife of a lawyer called Lee Jong Min.
She says he told her that your father went to see him last month to draft out his will.
What if there's nothing for us?
He's talked about doing good deeds before, so what if he just gives everything so some cause?
Then what happens to us?
I'm sure he'll take care of us. He doesn't even have that many children.
It's possible that he won't.
Does he ever ask us about whether or not we're looking around for a building?
He hates me so he won't even look at you properly.
See if it's true.
Ask him if it's true and tell him to spill the details.
How can I?
You got to do what you got to do for yourself, even if it's between father and son.
Do you want me to get involved again then?
Let us have a go at a clean love.
What are you saying?
I'll expose everything and take her.
Are you in your right mind?
I know I'm not in my right mind, too.
I'm gonna let everything out and just get my child back.
You agreed already, so what's this talk now?
Oh my, what brings you here.
We came to have dinner.
We meet again.
The living have to live.
The bubbling..
Woogeoji (outer napa leaf) stew you make. I crave to eat it.
Are you sure you are prepared to write a contract?
You have paper and pen, right?
I'll write it.
