Be Strong, Geum-soon
I am not lonely, because I have a dream
And I won't give up
What's wrong with you?
Is that what you take me for?
You think I'm an ignorant fool?
I know more than you think.
I know why you approached her.
You said yourself that your wife's sick.
I remember every word.
And you try to deceive me?
Am I wrong? Then why look for Geum-soon now?
You ignored us for 23 years.
You came looking...
after your wife became sick!
Are you after Geum-soon's kidney?
Gosh...
I'd heard zombies go after hearts...
You want her kidney?
Forget about that.
If you still have a conscience...
and you want to keep your reputation...
Don't show up before me or her.
Forget about us forever.
I warned you.
If Geum-soon or I see you again...
I'll sue you.
I'll tell your colleagues and staff...
and go visit some reporters too.
I'll tell them what you did.
If you still have a conscience...
then you'll know I mean it.
Get back to work right now.
Tidy yourselves up and get back to work.
We'll talk after closing.
I'm sorry.
Is Hwee-sung still throwing up and having diarrhea?
I'm so worried and upset that I can't be there.
- Mom. - Yes?
It's Geum-soon. She's worried.
- Oh. - Is Hwee-sung OK now?
Tell her he had a shot and that he's fine.
His fever's gone and diarrhea's stopped.
- OK. - Let's have a nap.
We just got home. He had a shot.
His fever's gone and diarrhea's stopped.
There's no need to worry, so work hard.
I hope you're not crying in the restroom.
Thank you.
Hwee-sung.
Be strong.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
Ms. Yoon.
I'm sorry.
- I said we'd talk later. - The reason we fought...
I came to you before going to Mrs. Oh.
OK then. Get to the point.
Geum-soon's a mom. She has a kid.
She has a 3-year-old son.
She keeps taunting me because I found out.
You're not surprised?
I knew that.
What?
You knew?
Yes.
And I told her not to tell the others.
Hye-mi.
Now you know. Why do you hate her?
Her husband died and she's alone. Don't you feel sorry for her?
Can't you help her, like a senior should?
Must you give a colleague a hard time?
I did the right thing. I know I did.
I stopped him in his tracks.
He's a monster. How could he...?
Did he get my point?
He should have.
Will he come looking for me?
No. No decent human would after that.
Soon-ja, you did a greatjob today.
Wait.
What about my job?
The seminar's schedule is out.
I should quit.
I only just got the job...
Still, I should quit.
Hey.
What's wrong? Why are you so skittish these days?
You should've made a sound.
What's wrong with you?
You're that upset about Geum-ah?
You sold some veggies?
Yes, a bit.
Get me some water.
My goodness, I had a huge shock.
A motorcycle nearly hit me. I could've died today.
You should've been careful.
It wasn't my fault.
You're OK?
Yes, I'm fine.
What?
Nothing.
What?
You... Forget it.
Ma'am.
Well...
I've been having nightmares, and I nearly died.
My imagination ran wild.
I was wondering if you saw that witch too.
You haven't, right?
I haven't.
I'd have told you if I did.
You're right.
You can't keep secrets.
Your heart would be going crazy if you tried to keep it from me.
You're not even glaring at me. Something must be wrong.
Kids are meant to upset their parents.
Don't let it get to you too much, OK?
You're sweating.
I've never seen you like this before.
You poor thing.
- You poor, poor thing. - Don't, I'm OK.
I'm home.
Where have you been all day?!
Your mom said no, so sit down and think!
Don't take her for granted!
She gave birth to you! You didn'tjust appear from nowhere!
You should be very thankful!
Why do you insist on going against her?!
You're an evil daughter!
Granny...
Move!
Get changed and make her dinner!
You heard me! Make her dinner!
Soon-ja, go in and lie down.
We'll cook dinner today while you rest.
Go on.
How big is it?
The room you share with Tae-wan.
Our room?
It fits a bed, a wardrobe...
How many square feet? You don't know?
Of course not. I'm not you.
I hope it's not tiny.
It's not that big, huh? Guessing from the structure.
It's not, but it fits a bed and a wardrobe.
All rooms do.
- Not all. - OK, fine.
We'll manage.
I won't buy any furniture then.
I'll buy the whole set when we get our own place.
Good idea. There's no room anyway.
Why does Geum-soon still live there?
I don't get it. A young widow living with her in-laws?
I told you, she doesn't have a choice.
You did, but I still don't get it.
It's complicated. You don't know everything.
OK, forget it. It has nothing to do with me anyway.
Where should we get married?
Oh, hello.
How is Eun-joo? She took the day off.
Yes. She's at home.
Things didn't seem to have gone well.
I think they broke up.
It's a pity.
People date and break up all the time.
Itjust wasn't meant to be.
A friend's waiting for me.
Oh, then you should go.
Bye.
He's making me look bad too. Dang.
Ms. Yoon.
I'm really sorry about the fight.
OK.
Hye-mi told me what happened.
Anyway, she's your senior. You shouldn't have started the fight.
I know. Sorry.
I pretended not to notice, but I know you two don't get along.
And both of you should know better.
People think hair stylists just work with hair.
But actually we touch their hearts.
Look at the face of a client who's happy with her hair.
You'll know what I mean.
Work on your relationship with Hye-mi.
Look into her heart, as if she's a client of yours.
You'll know what to do next.
Thank you, Ms. Yoon. I'll do that.
Miss.
Sorry about what happened before. And thanks for not going to Mrs. Oh.
Don't thank me. I'm waiting for a better opportunity.
You're quick.
Even Ms. Yoon's on your side now.
Miss.
So, you're a widow?
No wonder. You have an ''unlucky face.''
Clean up.
Hello? It's me, sir. How's Hwee-sung?
I see. I just got off work. I'll go straight home.
Bye.
Crazyhair. Get in.
I'm really sorry. I have to rush home.
You forgot about dinner?
I'm sorry. I had a bad day.
Sorry. I was so busy, and you caught me off guard.
I have to go home.
Then you should've called. I wasted my time!
I'm sorry.
That's all you say.
You keep standing me up and that's all you say!
You have to go. Go home then.
Man, this is heavy. Is it full of stones?
It's soil, but that's heavy too.
Over there, further in.
I'm home.
You're cleaning up?
Hi.
My wife's driving us crazy.
She's turning the house upside down.
I am, but everything's in order now.
- I'm home. - You're done already?
Hwee-sung gave you a hard time?
He did. And I had to clean the house.
Sorry. Why didn't you wait for me?
You're always late. You want to clean in the moonlight?
No, let's do something crazier. Dance.
Go in and cook dinner. We're starving.
Sure, it won't take long.
- Put that in the back. - OK.
Hwee-sung.
Sorry I wasn't there for you.
Thanks for getting well soon.
Thanks so much.
Sorry about what happened earlier.
I had a bad day and was feeling down.
Angry, huh?
I'll treat you to dinner next time.
From Crazyhair.
Stop looking around. Our house is TOO clean.
They're not coming to test your cleaning skills.
It's so clean, it's sparkling.
I missed that part.
Geum-soon, get a cloth.
They won't check the ceiling. Leave it.
I said get a cloth.
OK.
But don't make a fuss. You're upsetting me.
What do you mean?
You weren't like this when I got married.
You're favoring her over me.
Yeah.
She has a point.
OK then. Just sit down.
- Here, Hwee-sung. - No, don't.
- Why not? - He had diarrhea today.
- Maybe later then. - Later.
- Ma'am. - Yes?
- Can I ask you something? - Sure.
Do I have an ''unlucky face''?
Who said that?
No way.
- Someone's phone is ringing. Yours? - Yes.
Hello?
It's me. Goo Jae-hee.
Hello.
I'm just sitting around. I'm not busy.
What? Now?
Yes, now. I haven't eaten yet.
Me?
Nearby, beside the subway station.
Come out, I'll wait.
Or I'll be angry with you forever.
I'll be waiting.
He still hasn't eaten?
2 PM?
That's great. We won't have to serve lunch.
- Hello. - Hi.
They're quite modest. Don't worry.
Then I'll serve tea and some snacks.
Sure.
Yes? What?
Geum-soon, why are you still standing?
Ma'am. Sir.
Can I go out and meet a friend?
Sure, it's not that late. Go ahead.
Who is it?
Someone from the salon.
Don't be late, I'm tired.
You put him to bed tonight.
I won't be late. A few hours should do.
See you.
Don't be late.
I won't.
Hi.
Get in.
Let's eat around here.
You know a place?
Not really, but there are many diners.
OK.
That was quick.
You'd be really angry if I were late.
You got that right. I was going to yell at you.
Sorry about earlier.
OK.
Why are you feeling down?
Don't ask. It's complicated and upsetting.
OK, actually I don't want to know.
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
Go ahead.
Mix it properly.
The chili paste is over there.
Mix the chili paste in.
You're terrible. You've never had bibimbap before?
You mix it then.
OK.
It's good.
Here.
I'll ask for another spoon.
I don't mind.
It's OK.
Are you sure about that?
Yes.
I didn't brush my teeth after dinner.
You have a modest side too.
Why, it's not good?
No, it's OK.
You want some?
No, I had dinner. You eat up.
I can't love you
I can't hate you
