New Tales of Gisaeng
Hello?
Something's strange about Andre. He threw up the food he ate, and he's lethargic.
Isn't anyone there?
I can't really ask the secretaries to care after the dog.
Okay. I'm coming home.
Did something happen?
I think Andre is sick. He puked and he's sluggish.
Is there a hospital or something that's open today?
He ate some chicken meat just a little while ago.
Don't be sick, kid.
Maybe he got stressed because I went out on a Saturday.
How would a dog know its Saturday?
But this rascal is so smart.
Just like people, he could get sick each time he's grown some.
What is with that hat of yours?
Why do you go around wearing something scrappy like that?
What's scrappy about it?
What's got-minam (soon-to-be handsome), huh?
They have just plain minam (handsome). Should I buy one for you, father?
When are you going to meet with the daughter of Dae-Ahn banks?
I'm not.
Why?
I mentioned it a little to my friends.
But she's been dating the singer Deo-Mi, even now.
Deo-Mi? There's a singer by that name?
The guy who's got his hair dyed red, who comes out in that pizza commercial.
Are you certain?
Yes.
Find a proper girl.
Yes, yes it is.
Ra Ra would be perfect though. Her name matches mine so well too.
What name?
Ra Ri and Ra Ra... they are similar.
That Ra Ra is reckless, making our straight son into a gay.
That's just some suspicion. She didn't really say it in words though.
But that is that. What else?
Da Mo judged her right. Only her face is pretty.
Da Mo needs someone more mature to withstand him.
But where would we find perfect cake to suit our taste?
Someone pretty, with good background, and knowledgeable, and wise, and conducts herself well.
And not lacking in education.
She needs to be someone who's studied abroad too?
No. S.K.Y. would be enough. [ S.K.Y. = Korea's ivy league. Seoul U, Korea U, and Yonsei U ]
He'll be an old bachelor at this rate.
This is a once-a-life time major thing.
It's not like we have other children.
In the Republic of Korea, there are lots of daughters from finance, politics and education sectors.
It's not as though we can put out a newspaper ad.
You have no confidence for anything, do you?
You haven't even given it a proper effort.
Going somewhere?
To Japan, for a few days.
Do I look handsome?...
You're going to drive dressed like that?
Do you really need to wear a tie too?
I'm about to escort Representative Oh Hwa Ran of the grand Buyonggak. Of course I need to dress in full.
The term gigolo.. must correspond to me.
Dan Se ssi, you should get yourself a proper suit too.
Where would I go, all decked out?
You never know about life.
You may have to go to a funeral, or a wedding.
There are a number of things.
Just escort the representative safely.
You don't say. Don't you worry.
I can imagine a scenario.
What scenario?
You're driving, and a car is passing by,
and a really pretty miss is driving it.
The scenario where you stare at her in a daze.
No matter how pretty, she wouldn't be as pretty as our representative.
I think that popular term "purifying eyes"...
It's talking about Representative.
Whenever I see our representative,
I feel like my eyes got purified.
Ahjusssi.
What ahjussi?
We're in the plight of aging together. Just call me "hyung" (older brother).
Do you hold affection for Representative?
Affection?
It's a little different from affection.
Then what is it, to be precise.
Just.. above respect.
I say this out of nopashim (heart of old woman).
Don't get foolish ideas.
How old are you, Dan Se, that you'd have nopashim?
You're a whole lot younger than me, right?
"Nopa" means old granny, as the word says.
Then a man can't use that word?
Should I ask the nunas about it?
Hello?
This is Oh Bong. Which nunim is this?
Song Yi nunim.
Let me ask you about a word.
Can you only use the word "nopashim" from an older to a younger?
No.
You can just use it to mean you are concerned and worried about someone.
With no regrad to actual age.
But "nopa" means granny, right?
Yes, by literal meaning,
the term can only be used by people who are the age of a granny.
But you can use it to mean you're concerned.
With no regard to man or woman, nor old or young.
Yes.
What did she say?
How did it go? What did he say?
They weren't able to meet him.
Why?
He went into some barn in Kangwon province.
But the oriental clinic would know where.
He said people kept on looking for him.
So, he went into some deep mountain no one knows, not long ago.
They don't know how to find him either.
Aigoo!
Let's just go meet Sa Ran's mom first.
And the child's birthday is June 8th.
You don't think I know that?
We didn't remember since it was so long ago,
but she said she wrote down the birthdate on the letter then.
She said she did?
So if she was taken from here, her birthday would be June 8th.
Right.
Then we just have to ask Sa Ran about her birthday.
Yup.
And confirm her mom.
But what do we say to meet her?
Just use me as the excuse
and buy some presents we can't lift well,
and go to her neighborhood.
We'll get her number from Ra Ra.
Okay. There's no reason to drag this out.
Let's do this right away tomorrow.
But didn't Han Soon Deok cry from despair?
I told her she dreamed a great conception dream,
and consoled her not to worry.
What kind of dream did she dream?
Honey, do you have a golf appointment tomorrow?
No. Why?
Let's go see Father.
It's still too early. We'll go when he calls for us.
In what leisure time?
Don't you know him?
It's not like he can kill us or anything.
Plus, I miss seeing Ra Ra too.
Aigo, what is this drink tray for?
Let's have a rare drink.
Great! Wow.
Aigo, our Diana.
You sure are a lovely honey.
Here... please accept this drink.
Yes, and for you too.
Unnie, if you were to go abroad, where would you like to go first?
Europe.
Where in Europe though?
I don't know.
Someone said Edinburgh in UK is really nice.
And someone said the fortresses in Germany are really beautiful.
And lots of people say Paris is nice.
After I earn some money, I'm going to go to Paris first.
Are there any Korean designers who participated in the Paris Collection?
Of course.
There's designer Lee Sang Bong.
They say the small chili peppers are the spiciest.
You will be successful in anything you do.
If I continue to be like this forever,
my mom won't just sit and watch.
You want to go study abroad, don't you?
In our circumstance, I don't dare to think about studying abroad.
I just want to look at some sassy-looking Parisians and get some inspirations.
You will.
If I get into a dance company, I will send you on a backpacking trip, with the paycheck I earn.
Really?
You should go first though.
They say once you get into a dance company, you will slowly start to go on performance tours abroad.
How many shots did we each have?
Me.. three glasses, and you four. Why, tantalized?
Do you have just one more bottle?
Perfect.
This is what happiness is. Is happiness something else?
Honey...
I am curious about something.
What?...
Yesterday, when Sa Ran asked about the conception dream,
you were thrown off.
I wasn't thrown off.
Now too.
No, I'm not.
What do you mean you're not.
You're hiding something from me, right?
Huh?
Are you going to create secret between spouses?
No.
Then?
Your daughter asks you what her conception dream was, and why are you rendered speechless?
I know a lie when I see it, okay?
Honey,
you don't really know Sa Ran's conception dream, do you?
Why?
Why?!
To be honest.
You must never make it shown.
Don't worry!
Sa Ran...
is not my daughter.
Then?
She was found.
Found?
Someone put her outside the front door?
Not our front door.
It's a long story, actually.
Her deceased mom.. she used to work.
She was left outside the house she worked at.
Oh, oh... my world.
I didn't have an infertility surgery.
I was infertile to begin with.
So that's what happened.
But you raised her so well, even though she's not your blood offspring?
What does blood offspring matter?
You are so respect-worthy.
And Sa Ran is so pitiful.
Secret, no matter what.
Of course.
I should be even nicer to her.
You are already doing a good job now.
I really can't understand people who throw their children away.
How could someone bear a baby and leave it outside someone else's front door?
It's not a dog! Aigo.. my world.

It's been disarmed.
Dear Heavenly Gods.
Please allow me to find our granddaughter.
I know not of her name, nor her face.
Or where and how she's living.
My heart aches as if it's tearing apart.
This pathetic grandpa of hers casted her out,
not knowing she was my granddaughter.
If I am unable to find that child,
I do not think I can die my fated death.
I beg you earnestly,
so please let me find her,
dear Heavenly Gods.
He is definitely not in his right mind.
Master...
Master...!
Please!
You make sure you marry into Eun Sung Group.
That is the route to your survival.
What time is it?
Sleep more. It's not six yet.
Did you go out somewhere?
The yard.
Why?
Just.
What just? At dusk?
I took a bowl of purified water, and prayed.
You did?
In the past, my mother.
I saw her doing that a few times, whenever there was something important.
Have hope.
How's the weather?
It's a little windy.
Nothing you can do about that.
Eat this before you go.
It will be exhausting if you walk on an empty stomach.
I will eat it well.
Should I warm up some milk for you?
No.
If I drink milk in the morning, I'll end up having to go to the bathroom.
That's the same as me.
Dan Se ssi, what's your star sign?
I don't know.
When is your birthday?
September 3rd.
On Western calendar?
Yes.
You're a Virgo then.
That's why Dan Se ssi is so neat and perfect.
Did you sleep well?
Yeah.
Hey.. where does Sa Ran live?
Secheon-dong.
In Kangbuk (north of river)?
Yup.
Type in her number.
Why?
I should thank her.
When your grandma fainted, she was so startled but she helped out so much.
I'll let her know.
Type it in.
You can't memorize it?
Why should I memorize it?
What if you lose your phone?
Going to rehearsal?
Yes.
Wait a minute.
Get yourself a new pair of Spring boots. These are all worn out.
The department store shoes are expensive.
Get something pretty, even if it's expensive.
Don't you know how unsightly it is when a person's shoes are shabby?
Mom, I don't have any Spring shoes either.
Go and buy some from outside the school.
Cheap shoes hurt your feet and scrape them.
At your age, getting your feet scraped is a norm.
Please give this to Gong Joo.
No, it's not urgent with her.
Go on... go on now.
Make sure you buy a pair to wear, okay?
Why did you name me Gong Joo (Princess)?
Did I name you? He did!
More clothes?
Yup.
Why do you have so much stuff for a guy?
This and that.
Ah Mi.
Hello.
Excuse me, isn't this Sa Ran's cellphone?
Yes, but she went out with it, it seems.
Yes, I understand.
How do you look at the text-messages on this?
What are you doing?
How do you view the text-messages on this?
Isn't that unnie's?
Why would you look at it? Someone else's?
There's no evidence if I do.
Seriously, Mom.
That brat.
The phone is off and you will be connected to the voice message box.
It's me. I left my phone at home.
I called, just in case.
I'll hang up now.

Have father-in-law checked.
Checked for what?
Brain check.
I saw him going out to the yard early this morning.
He was praying with a bowl of water, like the old grannies in the old days.
What did he pray about?
Without saying it aloud. With his eyes closed.
He could have prayed for health.
Why are you so indifferent about father?
You're the one who is too sensitive about it.
So frustrating.
At this rate, his condition will become severe.
It needs to be treated at the early stages.
I'll take care of it.
Should we call now?
Hopefully she's home.
Just ask her for her address.
Hello.
Isn't this Sa Ran's phone?
Yes.
My daughter went out without her phone, it seems.
Isn't this the madam of Eun Sung?
Oh no.
What's wrong? Where are you?
She's friends with my granddaugher. Sa Ran is.
Yes.
The other day I imposed on Sa Ran.
So I am on my way there with a few things.
We'll be in Secheon-dong soon.
You're coming, you mean?
I only know it's in Secheon-dong.
This is Moogong apartments in Secheon-dong.
I'll call you after I arrive at your subdivision then.
I wonder if we can really accept the presents.
It's nothing grand.
It's building 1003.
1003?
We'll be there in about 20 minutes I think.
Yes.
Sa Ran's mom, herself, answered.
Ahjussi.. Moogong apartment in Secheon-dong.
Yes.
She said Sa Ran went out, without her phone.
What was her voice like?
How would I know by her voice over the phone? I need to see her.
It's possible that she may recognize you too.
I'm sure that's true.
Aigoo, what's this?
Rice cake. To bring to your brother's.
Who would eat the rice cakes?
Father-in-law has constipation. This is rice cake that's good for treating constipation.
There are such rice cakes?
Our country is a great country.
It's not that the country is great.
It's the culinary culture that is impressive.
Hello?
I'm in front of the apartment.
Yes.
Please wait a minute. We'll come down.
Gong Joo!
Hurry. They're here.
Are you the one who called just now?
Yes.
She asked you to come inside for a little.
This is quite heavy.
So we're going to have to bring it up to them. We have no choice.
No, no. It's heavy. You can't.
Let's carry it together.
Are you Sa Ran's younger sibling?
Yes.
Mom...
Yeah.
Please come inside.
Oh, what is all this?
Hello.
Yes.
You don't feel hungry?
Of course.
We were going to leave after we give these to you.
Please don't say that.
Your home is very quiet.
My husband went out to attend a wedding.
I see.
I came because I want to ask you about something.
What?
I saw you yesterday... walking with Da Mo oppa.
How did it come about?
Did you tell.. Ra Ra?
No.
We met again by coincidence.
Da Mo oppa's friend lives right upstairs from us, as it turns out.
He came to the division for a housewarming party.
I see.
You looked very tender together.
Come on, tell me the truth.
We just decided to meet casually, under no conditions... and just for a short while.
Short while?
Yeah.
Why? He's the son of Eun Sung.
That's why.
If we were to meet each other seriously, it would just be a burden to each other.
How far did you guys get?
What you saw yesterday. That's how far.
What about kiss?
Of course not.
No way.
It hasn't been too long since we officially started seeing each other.
If I were you, I would just go for it big.
If you tell Ra Ra, things will just get blown up.
Don't worry.
Am I that thoughtless?
Ra Ra!
I can never get a proper nap!
But he still won't take it seriously... my husband.
He really is doing things he never used to do.
What does mother say?
I didn't tell her because I didn't want to worry her.
That's not really something that worrying.
Praying with a bowl of purified water is something we don't even do.
We don't, but father-in-law could. He's someone from the old era.
What would father-in-law pray for?
You should've asked him.
If it were me, I would've asked him if he's got some worries.
Then you ask him yourself, okay? When he comes in.
Sure.
If it's something that troubles father,
it would trouble mother too.
How has mother's mood been?
She's been fine.
We came.
Get me some warm water.
Yes.
Those two are coming in without any energy.
I know.
Is it possible that mother contracted some illness?
I had some moshin-leaf rice cakes delivered.
It's said to be so great on constipation.
Have some, father-in-law.
Did something happen?
What would happen?
Go on out.
Now that I'm old, I get so tired after going out once.
Father.
I heard you got a bowl of water at dusk and prayed?
Who saw him?
Sister-in-law.
Is something troubling you?
No.
He woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep,
so he prayed for the health of the family members.
Tell her to bring me some pain medicine.
Yes.
Does your head hurt?
Father.
You're ill, aren't you?
Did you receive some sort of diagnosis at the hospital?
No.
What do you mean no?
Father looks so pale.
It's because it's cold today.
If something is strange about your father's health, I would be the one to know.
What do you mean you were praying for the health of family members?
I know about your temperament very clearly.
Stop the nuisance and stop talking.
Who says you're welcomed here?
You give me an illness and you give me medicine now?
Ra Ra?
Her grandpa and grandma came by.
And brought a ton of meat and fruits.
Why?
How did they know where we live?
They called your phone and asked about where in Secheon-dong.
They said you did a lot for them when that grandma lost her consciousness.
So it was to say thanks.
I didn't really do that much though.
Come out and see.
We don't need to buy meat for a whole month I think. Come out and see.
Is something the matter?
Unnie. Food.
Okay.
This is Korean beef, so it really is so delicious.
That's because I cooked it really deliciously too.
It's true.
Ja... eat to your fill.
Yes.
Did you call to say thank you, and that we'll eat it well?
They didn't pick up, so I asked Ra Ra to relate to them.
How fondly did they see you, that they would bring all this?
She brought this on herself.
They say if you're conscience you get shrimp paste at the temple too.
Right, honey?
Of course.
Thanks to Sa Ran, I get to eat to my heart's content.
On this expensive Korean beef.
Honey.
I think it's this.
What is?
Father-in-law and mother-in-law.
They never really got along great. They've squabbled all their lives.
That was just on the outside.
They never really fought really seriously.
They say as people age, they become child-like.
The two of them both have such strong tempers,
and they're child-like now.
It was over something small.
But whatever it is, it just grew bigger and bigger.
Your mother...
got really angry and told him she wanted a divorce.
It traumatized your father, and that's why he's so lethargic.
They went out and fought big time.
Then what about the praying with the water?
It's been a few days since they started the fight.
They don't want their daughter-in-law to think ill of them, so they can't really make it obvious.
Other than that, there's no reason.
It's not as though they are ill physically.
Then, what do we do?
Excuse me... I"m not sure if you're a miss or ahjumma.
And you don't really look like an ordinary ahjumma.
Do you live nearby here?
What are you?
And you?
I'm her bodyguard.
With that body?
What's wrong with this body?
It's completely like a hippo filled with water.
A water-filled hippo has some strength, you see.
Farewell.
This is why you can't go around alone.
Hello?
This is Seongbuk-dong.
Hello.
Did I call too early?
Now that I'm old I don't sleep much.
And breakfast?
I ate.
Um about...
Can you come to our house today?
Yes.
I'll be back.
Your father's going to have to be admitted to the hospital tomorrow.
Why?
I saw my stool, and it's melaena.
Get ready at once.
Are you almost done?
I can't do the hair right.
Bun hair?
Want me to do it for you?
You?
I was bored and searched it online once, and it's not hard actually.
Okay, do it then.
What are you doing?
You have to do this first, to make the hair stiff and easy to put up.
It's done.
Nuna, your face is small, so you look good with your hair all up.
You should go to beauty school.
Beauty school this time? And not study abroad?
No, finish school too.
A college-graduated hair-designer.
Isn't that impressive?
When I do the fashion shows, you do the hair for my models.
Never mind, okay?
They earn a lot, they say.
These days beauty shops are hot.
Come on. Let's go.
Sohn Ja did it for me, my hair.
He's skilled.
Because it's been grinding on you too much.
We'll have a look at your liver first today.
Actually, I've lived long enough.
Don't say such things.
You have to find our eldest granddaughter and do your share of grandfatherhood.
It's because we don't have a way.
She's in the room.
I'll go wash my hands first.
It's a nuisance, isn't it?
Why?
Since an old woman keeps on calling for you to come.
I like it. I get to hear this and that, great things.
Is dancing going well?
I'll be showing it to the professor tomorrow, and get some pointers.
I'm sure you will get a good result, if you do your best.
Yes.
I think Andre is here.
It's because no one's around and he misses them.
Andre!
Between dad and brother, who does he go to more?
My son, of course.
His brother went to Japan.
I see.
Business trip?
No, just traveling.
Since he's taking a break from the company, for the time being.
I see.
Lunch is prepared.
Okay.
Ahjumma, don't you and your husband fight?
We are too busy loving each other. Why fight?
Doesn't ahjussi upset you sometimes?
Men are about how the women treat them.
That's just easy to say.
After I got a divorce,
I attended church for some time.
The pastor told me this once.
Treat your husband as if you're raising a pig.
A pig?
When a pig is hungry, he gets really upset and bangs his head around.
If you feed him food then,
he will eat it quietly and ease up.
And if you pet him a little then,
he will moan in bliss, like a pure lamb.
He said to treat your husband the same way,
and you will have no problems whatsoever.
So, first and foremost, fill his stomach?
Yes!
Men can't withstand hunger.
It's true. My husband too.
I do what the pastor told me to do, and it really is no problem.
You got so much time? To be chatting?
We have ten tables to set today, don't we?
Which suits your taste the most?
Everything's delicious.
There are so many dishes, that I don't know what I should eat.
Do you want a glass of wine?
No.
Is your father not too fond of alcohol at home?
He drinks every now and then, but not much.
The trouble with alcohol is when it's in excess.
Yes.
Do you not have high blood-pressure?
It's a little high, of course.
If you have high blood-pressure, it's better that you eat brown or mixed-grain rice, than white rice.
It's just that I don't like mixed rice.
Then... perhaps salmon or mackeral.. and pine nuts. They are good for lowering blood-pressure.
And good for the heart too.
Really?
Yes.
What would you like for tea?
Rice punch for me.
Me too.
Do you really have no interest in men, and only care about dance?
Not exactly not at all.
And your ideal type?
I'm not too fond of feeble-looking face.
So, someone with sharp features?
Yes.
Then, my grandson should be okay.
He's handsome, of course.
You saw the movie with him and had dinner together too last time. What did you think?
An attraction toward him, as a man?
What use is there is I am the one attracted to him?
So you mean you don't dislike him.
You should show it through your behavior once.
The way I see it, the two of you are very suitable.
Did you find my grandson uncomfortable that day?
No.
Next Monday is our Da Mo's birthday.
I'll arrange a meeting that day.
I think he should be back by then.
Converse with him. You know what I mean, right?
This isn't about an old woman acting on a whim.
I understand.
It can't possibly be colon cancer, right?
I don't think it is.
But the dark bloody stool is a worry.
Thanks for your hard work.
You're not sleeping.
Since I nap once during the day,
it's not easy to fall asleep at night.
Andre!
Why didn't you eat your food, huh?
He only looks for the delicious stuff. Now that his taste buds are so elevated.
If it weren't for Da Mo's father, I would starve him for a day or two.
Is he coming home late today?
Yes, a little late, and he'll be going to New York tomorrow.
When will he return?
Saturday.
Then I will have to wait till he returns to tell him.
Will you get some nuts for me... and salmon?
But salmon is dry and not so good-tasting.
It's good for the health.
It lowers bad cholesterol, and prevents heart disease.
Did you see it on the television?
No, Sa Ran.
The dance...
Yeah.
Did she come by?
Have a good trip.
Yes.
Andre, play well at home.
Don't give him too much snacks. It'll make him sick.
Our chairman is quite the pet expert.
Unnie, could I wear this?
Be careful with it and keep it clean.
Okay.
How is it?
You look pretty.
Representative, you really are a true beauty.
I know myself well.
Instead of beautiful, I am more of someone who has a unique look.
A true beauty.
Can I say this?
Of course.
Like how you are now...
even when you're not all dolled up.
How should I describe it?
In color terms.
Green light shines from you.
Pure beauty.
Those who smear stuff on and hang this and wear that.
Those who are a little bit sightly because of that.
They are not really truly beautiful, you see.
Ahjussi, you sure know how to speak with savor.
They say the speaking is the person.
My soul itself is savory.
I don't know how to be gloomy at all.
It's a good thing.
Oh so happy... that she sees me sweetly.
Who is it?
Me.
You're here.
Going somewhere?
Temple.
Have a seat.
I came to see if you've gone to the hospital yet.
No matter how I think about it.. We need Sa Ran here.
I'm going to have another look at her.
Why?
Check about her birthday.
And ask her this and that.
What more is there to ask? Her mom is wrong.
Still.
Forget about Sa Ran, okay?
Grandpa.. how do you feel?
I'm alright.
I wonder if this blood is safe.
Would your father allow bad blood for transfusion?
The director went out for a short while on a dinner appointment.
He'll come by, after dinner.
Don't you need to get off work?
I don't have a set on and off schedule.
My granddaughter.
Oh.
Hello.
You two know each other?
Yup, Sa Ran.
I heard your grandfather is in the hospital.
Yeah. You must have heard it from Ah Mi.
Yeah.
Is he very ill?
He's just getting a blood transfusion.
Soon Deok...
she's fallen in love.
With whom?
With Buddha.
Just like Shim Soo Bong's lyric says...
one who cannot live without love is a woman.
Whether he becomes a husband, lover, or whatever.
Women need to give their heart out.
But if there isn't anyone to give that love to, they will be so stuffed up.
That they end up falling for God or Buddha.
Don't say such things to those who believe in Christianity or Buddhism.
You will hear ill words.
I'm just saying that's what it is.
But the head chef has lived with falling for cooking.
Food is just food as it says.
But a human being has a life.
A life needs another life to acknowledge one another and exchange feelings.
In order to have the mind be at ease.
Mom, who do you exchange feelings with?
You ask me because you don't now?
You, of course!
Aigo... my nemesis.
Why are you adding nemesis to that?
But our Soon Deok.
She needs to meet a good man before she becomes the grand Bodhisattva.
Thank you.
Yes.
I heard you and my daughter were on a group date.
Not as my partner.
How did things go with the partner you had?
We met once there and it was the end.
Why?
From my standpoint, she seemed fine. But from my parents' stance, she seemed so-so. That's why.
Father-in-law, what troubles you so much?
He's old and things are starting to breakdown one at a time.
Yes?
Hello.
Come on in.
Long time no see.
Yes.
You look familiar.
Ra Ra's friend.
We met at the graduation, didn't we?
Hello.
Grandfather.
It's nothing major.
Do you have someone you're seeing?
You said you had a gathering to go to.
Yes.
Father-in-law, I'll stop by later tonight.
It's not some serious illness. No need to come.
Mother-in-law, you're having to work hard.
Sister-in-law, bye...
See you again.
Yes.
You should get going too.
Mother-in-law should go instead.
This place is comfortable for me.
Sa Ran.
Yes?
When is your birthday?
I already told you last time, I think.
The date.
June when?
Why, father-in-law?
June 14th.
So it's not June 8th?
By lunar calendar?
By Western calendar.
Are you certain?
Yes.
Want a beverage?
I already had some.
This...
The picture came out well, didn't it?
Why isn't Ra Ra in the picture with you guys?
Ra Ra is the one who took the picture.
You bought a cake?
Yup. I saw you searching about cake yesterday.
But you probably don't even have spending money.
Dad?
He went out to tend to some business.
Me!
It's yummy.
Can I eat two slices?
Of course.
You went on school-leave unnecessarily.
I know, huh?
Had I know grandma would pass away, I wouldn't have.
Just make sure you study English at the least.
Okay.
How is it that you have no fat on you?
He exercises.. everyday.
Is there a fitness club nearby?
Yes. Would you like to see my six-pack?
Yeah!
How long do you have to work out to look like that?
About three months.
Wow, it really looks like laundry board.
I feel like doing laundry on this.
Go ahead.
Yes?
Yes.
Song Yi, and Ji Hyang, Soo Jeong.
Why?
To the special room.
Unnie, let's go.
Okay. Let's go.
To be honest, as you age, the biggest worry.
Is the drooping around your eyes, right?
You have to raise it.
You use the darker shadow.
From the eyelid to the eyebrow, in small triangle...
Even if you don't line the eyes, you can...
We cannot force something that is in God's hands.
Let's just wait a little.
Should I get a strand of hair from her and do a DNA test?
Dear, you are really going to be ill for real at this rate.
Mental illness.
Sa Ran's gaze toward us is different too.
What's different about it?
She's just gentle.
Her birthday is wrong and her mom is a total stranger.
Why is her birthday the 14th of all days?
If Sa Ran were the one, it should be June 8th.
Maybe she has it for the day she was left outside.
Say something that makes sense.
If you keep on troubling yourself with it,
you will get yourself sick.
Want me to do yours too?
No.
You should meet a groom like Sohn Ja later on.
In terms of looks?
No, personality.
His temperament and inner makeup.
He suits you well.
Or just him altogether.
Do you mean what you're saying?
Someone like Sohn Ja is pretty good.
And he has his own apartment,
and he's nice.
But above all else, he looks like he will treat you well.
Unnie.
Sohn Ja and I grew up together since I was ten.
In the old days, people would raise a boy at their home to make him their groom later on.
I have no intention for that whatsoever.
You can never be sure about life.
If I ever have other thoughts toward Sohn Ja, I'll tear off my limbs.
Don't say that.
Seriously.
What if Sohn Ja says he likes you?
He'd be out of his right mind, of course.
Can I use the tweezer?
You're in your right mind, right?
What do you mean?
Never mind. It's over there.
For what?
Don't use it on your nose hair.
I'm gonna!
Come over here. I'll do it for you.
No, I just have fuzz here.
When are you gonna become an adult?
I am an adult. Look at this body.
There are gradeschoolers who are 170 cm too.
He still hasn't lost his baby fuzz.
He's a baby. A baby.
Was the fatty grumpy at you today?
Lately it's been less severe.
Go softly!
Don't move.
It tickles!
Hello?
It's me, Grandma.
When are you coming back?
The day after tomorrow. On Monday.
What time?
That day's your birthday.
Ah, is that so?
How can you forget your birthday?
Did you go on vacation with some girls?
No, I'm just here at a resort.
There's nothing going on at home, right?
Oh, your father is at New York and he is arriving sometime tonight.
Your mother is in the basement exercising.
Do you want me to put her on?
No...
I'm arriving at 3 in the afternoon, on Monday.
At the airport?
Yes.
You need to eat seaweed soup in the morning since it's your birthday.
I have a lunch appointment with the resort's representative.
Keep your evening free.
Let's go have dinner with your grandmother (herself).
Okay. Where at?
Geunkang Hotel's western restaurant.
It's pretty good.
I'll make reservations.
You eat dinner at 6:30, right?
Yes.
Alrighty.
Come home safely.
Yes.
Get me some juice!
Yes!
Da-mo called. He's coming home on Monday.
What time?
He's arriving here at 3.
Then I suppose we'll have to have his birthday feast for dinner.
I'm going to buy him dinner.
Why?
What do you mean why? Because it's his birthday.
Hello?
It's me.
Yes, Grandmother.
I just got a phonecall from Da-mo.
Come on to Geumkang hotel's western restaurant on Monday, by six in the evening.
It's going to be reserved under Ah Da-mo.
Okay.
Just know that if you guys start conversing, I'll be leaving early.
Just eat comfortably like last time.
And tell him some entertaining stories here and there like you do to me.
Okay.
Does he know I'm going to be there?
I purposely didn't tell him.
Then I'll see you on Monday.
Yes. Please go in.
You're not going to rehearsals today?
Tonight I'm going to meet my professor.
You know..
What?
Yesterday, a fortuneteller came to our restaurant.
Everyone was telling me about how accurate he is.
So I asked him a little about you and Gong Joo.
What for?
No.. just because everyone was telling me how great he is.
But you know.. he told me you have a fate of marriage this year...
in the autumn.
I said nonsense.
I said you don't even have someone you're seeing, how could you marry in autumn?
And he tells me, your daughter is seeing someone currently.
For sure.
Are you?
Just tell me only.
I don't know yet.
So you're saying there is someone nonetheless.
That man is a true ghost.
He says you have the pillars to be an empress,
if you were in the old days.
What does he do?
I'll tell you later on.
Right now, we're just meeting.
At least his age then.
Twenty-nine.
Western count?
Korean age. [ +1 from Western count ]
Perfect age difference then.
Sa Ran, you're getting blessed because you've been living so good-hearted like a fairy maiden.
What do you mean I've lived so good-hearted.
A person's face is what that person is.
Look at your face, Sa Ran. It's so kind-looking.
Nowhere is there a kinder face.
Go on in.
Stuff like this should be done by the homemaker.
Go on in, please.
You naive thing.
You fell for that, didn't you?
Mom, you said those things aren't accurate and there's no need to listen to them at all.
But could it be accurate?
Mom.
I have someone good.
A young prince who is only big in height.
I want to be good to him and be loved by him.
And fill the areas where he lacks.
What does he lack, you ask?
No one is perfect, right?
In one sentence to describe it...
Shall I say he's unfriendly?
Just a very little bit.
However, his heart inside is warm.
It's only been one week since I haven't seen him.
But I miss him.
And I miss that curtly mannerism of his too.
Have you been well?
He hasn't been eating well for two days.
Because I'm not here?
Yup!
Did you miss me so much?
Don't you feel hungry?
Tell mother to eat first.
I haven't fully digested what I ate on the way here.
Andre!
Please go in, professor.
Okay.
It was fun today.
Us too.
Good bye.
Let's go have a glass of wine.
It's only eight-o-clock.
When will your grandpa be discharged from hospital?
Monday.
It's not a big worry for your family members when they get sick, since they can be admitted right away.
Yup.
Ra Ra... you truly lack nothing.
How much does a flat of about 30 pyong cost? [ 30 pyong = 1068 sqft ]
Why?
Living alone once is my true earnest wish.
Why?
It's just four adults staring at me.
And add auntie and uncle to that, it's a total of six.
Do you know how tiring that is?
Don't think of it like that.
That I might get punished?
That happiness will crawl away.
I can't even nap during the day whenever I want.
I sleep and grandpa looks for me, . Or grandma comes in.
And uncle's family comes in and out, too.
Just don't take day naps.
Don't you ever stay up all night watching American dramas or reading books?
Then tell them ahead that you're going to sleep, and not to wake you.
The very issue of having to do that is a nuisance.
I could be dozing to sleep while I'm reading.
How can you expect life to have no inconveniences at all?
Dan Sa Ran, this girl.. She's totally a young oldie.
She always talks, not from our standpoint, but from the scolding stance of old people.
I heard they torment the newbies very severely once you get into the dance company.
It's true.
They spread bad rumors about you on purpose, as if you had something going on with men.
And in severe cases, they put someone else's wallet in your stuff on purpose
to make you into a thief.
How can they do that?
That's why the elders say that the scariest on earth are not the beasts, but the human beings.
Human beings can be such demons.
It's true.
Heeju senior is looking so much prettier these days.
Did she get something else done again?
I think she got botox injection.
But mine got ruined by the botox.
I had too many.
Heeju senior's profile looks like total art now.
Mom, you got a text message.
Do you want to be a mom?
Just for fun.
It's from Ah Mi.
Tell her to come out. Her house is near.
Her family moved.
When?
Last week, I think.
Sa Ran, can you ask Da Mo oppa how to buy resort parcel for cheap?
Not time-share but the ones you can use anytime all year long.
Hello?
It's me.
The text message was sent to me.
Hello?
I said it came to me.
I see.
Then you should tell me what's going on.
I'm sorry.
Why are you sorry?
Explain it.
I was just wondering how we can buy a parcel ownership for cheap.
Why do you ask Sa Ran to ask about that?
I'm sharp as a needle.
Those two are dating, aren't they?
I don't know the details.
Tell me what you know.
Just...
My dad just came in. Let's talk again later.
What?
It's Ah Mi, isn't it?
Ah Mi says...
You and Ah Da Mo are dating.
