Episode 14
Are you cursing your child instead of blessing?
Did you say I've done wrong to you? Then what about you?
What have you done for us?
Let's go!
Not having dinner?
I've lost all appetites!
Calm down, ok?
You could have talked to her nicely after dinner.
Don't say a word.
Gosh... I thought I'd eat a decent dinner with that crab stew.
My...
Mom.
Where are you coming from?
Goong grandma. She wanted to see Prince.
Did she have a quarrel again?
I'm going to sleep.
Aren't you gonna have a dinner?
I have a splitting headache.
What is it?
I'm so distressed. Goodsoon upsets me so much.
Wake me up when she's home.
Ok.
I'm full.
Let's sing after we've digested.
It's not a good idea to play karaoke in a residential area. Neighbors may complain.
Then why don't we go to a karaoke?
How about watching a movie? Something funny.
Sounds good.
You go borrow a DVD. There's a big blockbuster store around the corner.
Let's go, Goodsoon.
You go alone.
I need to know you guys' taste.
Who named you?
Who named YOURS?
At least my name has a good meaning to it.
I came here because of you. Aren't you testing me now?
Maybe you're testing me.
What do you want me to do?
Do you like blue crab stew?
Yes.
Let's have dinner together.
Oh, thank you.
Starting tomorrow, you and I will be an official couple.
According to whom? Why me?
Because I'm attracted to you.
Tell me 10 reasons why I attract you.
There's none.
I can't believe myself. How did I fall for such a spoiled girl?
Anyway, I'll help you to become a real lady.
Stop acting up.
When you talk to me, drop your eyes.
If you look at me like that, I'll be lost in your eyes.
I might not resist kissing you
I'm getting goose bumps.
Hey, let go of me! Let go!
I said let go of me!
Finish with Dongja. You know you and Dongja suck me, don't you?
She even fought with a gangster.
Would you be ok if I tell her what you just said?
Let's take it slow though. We can't make our parents shocked.
Tell them I had to leave after I got a call.
Hey.
This is my answer.
This blue crab stew is just awesome. You're a good cook.
Thanks to the crabs.
Do we have more rice?
We do. There's plenty.
Frankly, I think Korean crab tastes better than lobster.
Absolutely.
I wonder how Youngdok giant crab tastes like.
What's that?
Like its name, it's a big crab.
Oh, I think I know it. A big red crab?
Yes.
I don't think I'll like it.
Haven't you tried it?
No. It looks like a plastic.
When it's steamed, juice wells inside the shell.
Rice mixed with that juice tastes just wonderful.
It's in season from November.
Foods in Korea are quite extensive.
I was amazed to see monks make jello at a temple.
Acorn jello?
Yes.
Let's go to Youngdok next month. I'll treat you.
We can get the real flavor at a local producer.
Isn't it too far though?
We can drive to there. Do you drive?
Sure.
We can drive in turns.
And you need a break from studying.
Right.
What do you think?
You guys go.
Why not you?
I don't want to go to Youngdok only to eat a crab.
I have lots of work to do.
Come on, a writer needs to experience as much as possible, including food.
He's right.
I can taste it later when I become a writer.
Do you think people who've never eaten ice cream know how it tastes?
Only after trying it, they know what it really is.
That's right.
A writing teacher once told me, "Do you need to murder to write a murder story?
Then male writers cannot write about delivering a baby."
That makes sense, too.
Still, wouldn't it better to write a story supported by experiences?
Probably.
Now I can die without regret since I tasted it.
Jade, eat this.
No, you eat that.
Come on, don't get your fingers smelly.
You'll be a thoughtful hubby,
though they say Korean men don't give bait to a fish caught.
Do you know that expression too?
Of course. I'm a good listener.
Men who say that degrade themselves.
By saying that, they admit they're mean fishers of women, right?
That's right.
I'm at Gabbana.
Can you come?
I think the man in our next-door neighbor batters his wife.
You heard them last night, huh?
No.
Didn't you hear yelling and weeping?
No. I was so tired.
Are there battered wives in the U.S.?
There are some.
Was it Gangji?
Yes.
Did you guys fight?
No. She asked me out.
Then go.
After finishing this.
Now. She's around here, right?
Yes.
She's waiting for you.
Ok...
Brush your teeth.
Ok.
I don't think you would give her a hard time as her sister-in-law.
I just want them to live happily.
I saw many sisters-in-law complaining about each other at a temple.
Some complain that they can't even digest because of in-laws.
Want more rice?
I'm fine.
I like to have more but I feel sorry to eat too much...
Don't say that. We have plenty rice.
Just joking. No potbelly for me.
Oh, by the way...
Yes?
Can you ask Jedoug when his birthday is?
Today?
No, later.
Ok.
I should at least know his birthday since he's now handling the business.
That's right.
I wish you'd ask my birthday too.
If she can't eat watery rice, you can bring our rice for her.
Are you telling me to deliver rice?
Take two bowls of rice and go eat with them.
You know Joe always puts meaty food on the table.
Heja can be happy with hard rice, and you with Joe's dishes. Mutually beneficial.
I didn't say I didn't like your dishes.
I'm only concerned about your unbalanced diet.
Those vegetables fit my body and appetite. Stop complaining.
Why are you so quite?
Did something happen in your family?
My parents want to see you.
Why?
Because they want to know you.
Can you make a few hours?
But you know my situation...
My parents...
They got married late in life, and had me after 10 years of their marriage.
They are really old.
How old are they?
My father is 68 and my mother 63.
They wish...
I get married this year.
Good evening, sir.
Hi. Is Goodsoon home?
No, not yet.
Madam fell asleep after taking an aspirin.
Ruby is late today.
She's on her way home.
Are there many mama boys in Korea?
None around me. Why?
I thought about that doctor who came the other day. Ruby's ex-boyfriend.
But there are some positive sides.
Like what?
Don't you think mama boys can become sweet hubbies?
But the problem is that mama boys lack sound judgment...
...when faced with critical issues.
You are not one of them, are you?
I am just what I am.
Excuse me.
Why?
Call from the nature.
I'll do the dishes.
No, I'll do it.
Doing that is a habit with me, so I need to do it like an exercise.
Then go exercise to the park.
Save this time for reading, watching TV, or writing.
I'll concentrate on studying starting tomorrow.
Don't you need to watch many dramas?
I do.
What's the popular drama these days?
I didn't have time to watch anything.
Either well-made or poor work, I can learn a lesson from it.
Anyway, I'll do the dishes.
Kyle might take it strange.
I think he'll take it natural.
Why natural?
We live together, work together, and you served me with dinner.
It's my turn to serve you.
Ouch!
What?
I've got something in my eye.
Wait.
Don't rub it.
Ok.
Yes..
Will it take long?
He's got something in the eye. Can you lick it off?
Lick what?
His eye.
What?
Lick it to remove the dirt.
I can't. How can you ask me to lick the eye?
Put your tongue in and lick in circle.
Lick in circle on top of that?
You are a man. Why not?
Is it something big in the eye?
Yes.
It'll come out with tears.
Try to cry.
How?
Think about sad memories.
I don't have much sad memories.
How about you?
A lot. My mother passed away.
And the woman I loved married a 56 year-old professor.
I was so shocked and dismayed.
Does it make sense a 23 year old girl married 55-year old man?
Is that why you decided to become a monk?
That's not an issue now. Your cornea can be damaged.
How come you don't have sad memories?
Can you try to open the eye so that the dirt can come out?
The pain brings tears to me.
That's good. Keep crying.
Seems she has a feeling for Jedoug.
I think this is the end.
You would say the same if you were in my position.
I cannot do anything other than studying.
You know that.
I do, but...
Nothing is impossible. Our efforts can make things work.
I can take care of it. Just meet my parents, please?
Would they treat me favorably?
Is that what you're afraid of?
I can't think of marriage now.
I don't have a degree yet, and my sisters financially support my studying.
I'll support you.
I don't want that.
Coral...
Can you let me go?
Can you study well after breaking up with me?
Your father's here...
Where's mom?
I'm not scared of you. Not at all.
Am I out of mind? Maybe.
Come.
Let me talk.
Now you dare to drink alcohol?
Alcohol? I only drank old grape juice with my friends.
So sweet and tasty, making me high!
Get me some water.
When will you change my name?
Why are you so quiet?
Mom is Terry, You Rome, and my brother is Younggook (England)...
I could have been named like Paris, or London, right?
Forget Paris or London, but I want a name like Sohee or Lahee, ok?
Ok?
Give me that.
You look upset even with a nice name. Why?
Wake up!
You talk too much!
Wasn't smoking enough?
You found it.
Look!
Yes.
Fill the bathtub and throw her in it!
Throw me into the water? Am I a laundry?
Call mommy, my mom.
She's sleeping.
Mom! Mom!
Yes, I smoked 'cause I felt heavy.
I didn't harm anybody. Is smoking a sin?
I don't go to hell just because I smoked.
Oh, look at him!
Oh, he's scary.
Hey, good evening mom?
I'll change my name as soon as I turn to 20.
Stop schooling her from tomorrow. It's over.
Take her to the bathroom!
Ok.
It's over. Why do you always threat me like that?
Why you hit me!
You're drunk, not in your right mind.
Who cares I'm drunk or sober. Who the heck cares for me?
Don't think you can go to school again.
I don't care not going to school.
I will go abroad after having fun.
Ouch, what's your problem?
Let go of me! Let go of me!
Oh...
That stupid Amber... who does he think he is?
I'm not up for any fools.
Ouch!
Dancing at a funeral...
Mourning at a party....
My...
You little brat! You need a beating to come to senses.
Honey, no!
Please!
Are you gonna hit me? Do it.
Take her away.
Yes.
Get off me! She needs a beating.
Honey!
Honey, I'm gonna faint.
We can't help troubles when raising a child.
She's our enemy, not our child!
Honey, I'll make sure she quits her smoking.
She's running out of the frying pan into the fire.
Honey, watch your blood pressure, please.
What a show!
She needs to be flogged.
Take her upstairs!
You can't win me. Go coop in your room.
Honey, it's all my fault.
Remember I took a medicine, not knowing I was pregnant with her?
That's why she's like that. There can be no other reason.
Let's just be thankful that she's healthy, honey.
Please, honey....
Honey!
Go upstairs!
What are you gonna do with me?
Stay still unless you want a hit.
Let go of me!
Hit me, come on. Hit me!
I'm here, hit me!
Hit me!
I hate my name! I hate it!
I've begged you to change, but you don't listen to me.
Come on everybody!
What is it?
Did you date someone?
No. Don't be shocked.
We'll have a car on Tuesday.
Car?
What kind of car?
New Beetle!
New Beetle?
How come?
Ms. Boss bought me one.
What boss?
Is the boss male?
No, her name is Boss. A 70 year-old beautiful old lady.
She was once a patient in her hospital.
Why did she buy you that luxury car?
Because I've taken care of her with all my heart.
Is she rich?
Yes. She used to run a boutique in downtown Seoul,
and all her clients are high classes people.
Ruby, there's nothing free in this world.
She bought it for me out of mother's heart.
But it means all sorts of work on your part.
All I have to do is to keep her company.
Are you sure you can manage two jobs?
Why not? I'm not doing a bedpan for her. It's just to keep her company.
If I think it a hard job, what would be an easy job?
Don't you think so?
Are you sure there're no other conditions?
Yeah. All I have to do is to visit her.
She made it clear that I needed to see her once in a while.
She's so lonely without any siblings.
How will you maintain the car?
She'll take care of it.
You should take driving lesson immediately.
Yep.
For free.
How?
Did you invite Kyle to dinner?
Yes.
New Beetle!
Oppa, are you sleeping?
No.
I need to talk to you.
You want me to come out?
Jedoug might be bothered by our talk, huh?
What is it?
Let have some rice tea. I'll treat you.
Why do you smile at me like that?
What's with Gangji?
We could bother Amber. Let's go in the room.
And?
Time to break up with her.
Not that I've started anything with her.
But you're in love.
There's no other way. How can I marry her in this situation?
Maybe they want to see you to ask not to meet her.
That's what I thought but... no.
How did you say goodbye?
I just clarified my position.
Too bad that her parents are that old.
So, does her mother sell rice cake in spite of her old age?
Yes. I think they are healthy.
And working hard.
Having a late child can be a problem in that aspect.
You guys have to get married before 30.
You too.
I'll live as a free single.
Delicious, isn't it?
Yeah.
You are an American only by appearance. Your inner being is so Korean.
I think I must have been Korean in my previous life.
This is not good.
Good jello is soft yet solid, and it bears the savor of acorn. It's more yellowish, too.
Bring some for me from the temple.
Ok. Female Buddhists like me.
If I ask them, they will give me 10 packs of jello.
I like you too.
Do you know the difference between Korean women and American women?
No.
American women are not witted by nature.
But they have other qualities.
Like what?
Being sexy.
Sexiness isn't achieved by mere curvy look.
Oppa.
How about a part-time job?
Like what?
Remember I told you I was going to see a discharged patient?
So?
She recently got an operation for stomach cancer.
Is she terminally ill?
No, she was treated in the early stage.
She was such a workaholic, and got aged single.
Having been ill, she realized that money is useless.
Today, she bought a car to go to the hospital regularly,
and she also bought another car for me.
Wow, you must have gained her favor.
I'm lucky with relationships.
That's good!
By the way, do you have a license?
I do, but I'm not sure of driving well.
So, is this treatment for a driving lesson?
It can't be better.
Oppa, how about driving her car?
It's a first class, Phaethon.
You mean a chauffeur?
Are you accounting "guichon" of trades?
What does that mean?
"Gui" and "chon", the nobility and class of trades.
No, but I hate driving. Especially in Korea, it is a real stress.
Don't you remember what your chief priest said,
"understand people's suffering first"?
But driving is not the only way.
I mean, you can comfort her and share her loneliness by accompanying her.
Oh, she doesn't have any religion. How about preaching her Buddhism?
You earn money, you do good... That's "ilsok-eejo".
What does that mean again?
Killing two birds with one stone.
Korean is too difficult to master.
Oppa, let's meet her with me tomorrow, ok?
Did you tell her about me?
Yes.
Is she ok though I'm not Korean?
Of course, because I recommended you.
I lied to her that you're genuine.
It's true that I'm genuine!
Don't lie through dried lips.
They're moistened now.
Jade.
The shaman was a fake, wasn't she?
She predicted bad things, but look! Your business runs well, and we got a car!
We should not rely on fortune telling. We must live on our own will.
They say we can survive even in a tiger's den, if we have will. That's so true.
Let's celebrate it anyway.
Yes.
Dad might ask to use her car...
I don't think Ruby would trust him with the car.
Aren't you happy, bro?
Yeah.
I think Prince is the source of blessings.
Ever since he lived with us, everything goes smoothly, huh?
I hope so.
I can't believe we have a car again.
How long has it been?
Well.... 11 years?
Aren't you full?
I am, but I can't waste food.
Feeling high, huh?
Yes.
I think I can't sleep tonight.
Because of the car?
Yes. I think I was born under lucky star.
Sounds like you've consulted fortunetellers.
No. With the money to pay them, I'd rather go on a shopping.
Well...
About Jade...
Yes?
Don't you think she likes Jedoug?
What?
I got that impression.
There're a few things you cannot hide, like cough, poverty, and love.
After showing him cold shoulders and all those mistreating,
she felt sorry that she was wrong. Also, he'll look after her business.
Maybe... but being nice and being in love are distinguishable.
On what ground?
After the dinner, Jedoug got something in his eye.
Then Jade asked me to lick it off. So embarrassing.
She's gotten maternal love as she looked after us, though she's not aware of it.
That's why.
Oh...
What about me?
What?
Driving lesson.
We'll see.
See what? Please.
You're pulling down my pants.
Answer.
How much will you pay me?
I'm doubtful which is your master, Buddha or money.
Just kidding.
Do I need to go on a detail or skip to the point?
Doesn't matter.
I don't beat around the bush.
You are the last one I can think of as my sister-in-law. You know that, huh?
You might insist on marriage, saying you love each other,
but it can't justify everything.
I love my brother, and my parents love him more than anyone does.
If you love him, let him go.
I'm not begging him to stay with me.
Then cut him off and leave.
What if I say "no"?
Oh, Prince, picaboo! Picaboo!
Prince! Prince!
Oh, gosh.
Prince, picaboo!
So noisy!
Take him home. He feels strange here. That's why.
Oh, little boy, it's ok. Ok, ok...
What should we do? It's locked.
Uhm, smells good!
Delicious!
Kyle.
Kyle, Kyle!
Hey, man! Hey!
Shut up!
Lock the door.
What does 'Robber' mean?
I don't know. I can't think of anything.
Burglar...
What? Burglar?
Is that Coral?
Are you Coral?
Mr. Goong!
I'm gonna die...
I'm afraid Kyle might get hurt.
I'm concerned more about Jedoug.
Should I follow him?
Just hold on, ok?
Bastard, to break into a poor family.
Hey, it's me.
Are you ok?
Yes.
Were you stabbed?
No, I wasn't.
How many were they?
He's not a burglar.
A mere intruder?
Mr. Goong.
Our father?
Yes.
Nonsense!
Are you sure?
Yes. He came to drop Prince here since he cried too much.
Then why did he take a run?
Because he was abashed by screams.
Oh, I can't believe...
I was flushing the toilet, and all of sudden,
somebody whispered my name from behind.
I thought it a ghost.
Then why did you scream 'Robber'?
I must've blacked out.
When I came to myself, I realized someone was dragging me out.
So I thought it was a robber.
You are a man. How could you faint from that?
I'll do the same to you next time.
Suppose you're in the restroom in darkness and...
someone whispers your name from behind.
I bet you'll faint with your hair all stood up.
I'm so sorry for my dad.
Lucky that it was not a burglar.
By the way, where's Prince?
He must have carried him back.
I don't think so.
Coral, check the kitchen.
Ok.
Oh, he's here.
Is he sleeping?
Yeah.
What a shame. This is not the first time.
Maybe his mission in this world is to put shame on us.
Why didn't he bring him home earlier, not at midnight?
They might jeer him inside.
Take the key back from him.
I might sleep during class tomorrow.
Don't you think Jedoug is really manly and brave?
He went after him on bare feet, right?
Kyle was so funny.
Shame on him with his size.
Half asleep, he might have been shocked.
Mom, why are you crying?
Did you fight with Dad?
What are you gonna do now?
What?
When did you start smoking?
You could have been beaten up to death last night.
I can't help you now.
Either withdraw from school or get kicked out...
You made an irrevocable mistake before him.
You must be tired from lack of sleep.
I'm fine, because we were off yesterday.
Let's go.
Not a wink of sleep?
I can sleep daytime.
Are you sure we'll withdraw her from school?
Yes.
Go see her adviser and submit the form.
What if she begs for forgiveness?
Too late. She doesn't deserve education.
Thank you.
Hi, Ruby.
Didn't you save crab stew for me?
I did.
But there's none.
Look into the casserole on the countertop.
There are only shells.
How come? I really saved yours.
It must be Dad, again.
I'll make it again for you.
What do I eat now? I can't eat rice without soup or stew.
Isn't Goodsoon eating?
Should I bring her?
Please.
Leave her alone if she doesn't want to.
Ok.
She's not home.
Did you check the restroom?
Not there either.
Did you search everywhere upstairs?
I did.
What should we do, honey?
Check the basement.
Ok.
Not there either.
The person you are trying to reach is...
It's turned off. Maybe Mr. Wang saw her. Go ask him.
Ok.
What are you doing there?
Oh, my... what should I do?
She's in the garden.
Doing what?
Sitting on the grass.
And?
Why don't you go out and see?
Do you think this can melt the frost from his heart? He's serious this time.
I know. That's why I'm doing this.
Look at you. How could a high school student smoke?
On top of that, drunk and talking nonsense... You've earned it.
Go out and see her.
Why?
Because you made her do that.
Let me heat up your soup.
No thank you. I'm all heat inside.
She's waiting punishment like someone in a drama...
Your soup might be cold.
Won't you call her in?
Leave her alone.
What about withdrawing from school?
She deeply repents of her wrongdoings.
She's not repenting. That's just a show.
But we can't let her sit like that all day long.
Good morning?
Please come home early.
Ok.
Come on in and eat.
No.
Are you gonna do that all day long?
He knows me the best, and I know him the best. There's no other way.
So did you cause the trouble since you know him the best?
Mom, just go in and eat.
You can continue later in the evening.
You are such a troublemaker.
Make sure you get married.
You know what I mean.
If I have a girl just like me, I'll send her to you.
Ok, if I live that long.
I'm not gonna live long because of you though.
Isn't she coming in?
Bring some food on a tray.
Yes.
I'm concerned about her future.
Ready.
Ok.
Why don't you call your father?
Why?
I'm concerned he might be injured.
I didn't know it was him running away in the darkness, so I took him as a robber and...
Did you hit him?
Not exactly but... I had him in a headlock.
Then he'll be ok.
He might have got wrench in the neck.
If he's sick, he'll surely call me.
Next time, when a real burglar breaks into the house, don't go after him.
What if he's armed?
I can handle any man.
But still. Did you do martial art?
Taekwondo, kendo, judo... I'm in a mastery level.
You might want to be careful though.
Lethal weapons can hurt you.
Ok.
I won't eat. Get me some water.
Come and get it for yourself.
Didn't you sleep well?
It's not like that.
It may be caused by high blood pressure.
I'm normal.
Yes.
What should I do with Goodsoon?
Why?
She doesn't drink even a single drop of water.
Leave her alone if she doesn't want to.
It's cold today.
No one forced her to do that. Just ignore it.
Her face turned blue and lifeless.
Well, I'll call you later.
Goodbye, sir.
Are you going swimming?
Yes.
You really live by your name.
Playing in the water like a graceful swan...
Are you being sincere or just sarcastic?
In a part, I mean it.
I'm going out to avoid you nagging me.
Goodsoon?
Good morning?
What happened?
A real mass. Had I not stopped him, he must have beaten her with a golf club.
She can't go astray just because she smoked.
We're in Korea, where girl's smoking is unacceptable.
Who does she take after? Not you, huh?
She's exactly like her father. So stubborn.
I wish she inherited good characters but... she's uncontrollable.
People like Goodsoon are likely to succeed in life.
Every successful individual has some kind of stubbornness.
How can I expect her to be successful with all those bad habits?
They are only momentary. Look at me.
Looking for your stepson away from home? Is that what you call a success?
Well...
Oppa.
Yeah?
Where should we go for a first drive?
Why do you ask my opinion?
Because you're gonna drive and give me a lesson.
What if I didn't move in? You hated me so much.
I didn't. There's only miscommunication.
Miscommunication? Don't stretch the truth.
A relationship that starts wrong but ends well is better than...
...one that starts well but ends bad.
Is our relationship good?
Yeah.
Do you feel good to be called oppa?
Of course!
There's one thing I can't understand, though.
What?
In America, you must have been always called by your name.
Oh... I have cousins, children of my stepmom's sister.
Aunt?
Yes. They once visited my house from Oklahoma.
When I heard a little girl calling her brother oppa, it sounded so affectionate.
I was envious.
Why didn't you ask her to call you oppa?
She insisted to call me Kyle.
Good morning?
Hi.
How are you?
Hi.
Have a seat.
Ruby?
Yes.
She's brushing her teeth.
I see.
What would you like to drink?
Oppa?
Water for me please.
Me too.
Ok.
This is Kyle.
Have a seat, please.
Isn't she beautiful?
She is.
Oh, you don't have to say that. I got ugly after the surgery.
You look good, not like someone out of the hospital.
Really?
Yes.
You had strong energy in your voice when you said "Ruby?"
Really?
And the energy is vital to human being.
So he's not coming?
No.
And you don't want anybody but him?
No.
Call him. I'll talk to him.
Hello.
Are you studying?
I'm taking a break.
My mom wants to talk to you. One second.
Ok...
Hello?
Hello.
I heard a lot about you.
Oh....
Can we meet? Though you must be busy with studying.
I'll come to a place convenient for you.
How about tomorrow evening?
Yes.
I'll see you with Gangji there.
Ok.
I think Ruby's been blessed with people.
She's been favored by everybody around her since she's little.
It goes for her sister too.
I've not been favored that much.
Do you envy her?
No. I am happy that people like my sister.
I think you will hold a rite for a new car.
What does that smile mean?
Did you fool me to hold the rite?
No.
So, you will hold it this time too, huh?
After listening to my brothers' opinion.
You can't skip it.
What if we skip?
It means you played the rogue.
I didn't make unfair profit.
But you made a fool of me.
I was there with you. I didn't make a fool of you.
Do you feel victimized? But you did a good job.
I was too naive.
That's a virtue.
A pure-hearted man is more attractive than a street-wise man.
What?
Am I attractive?
Too much.
I like your smile like that. It goes well with you.
How long will you call me like that?
You told me not to call your name.
May I do now? Jade?
Good afternoon.
Is this the place?
Yeah.
Have a seat please.
Let's sit here.
You are early customers.
Do you have business hours?
Yes.
Afternoon business starts from 4.
Ramen for all?
Yes.
Ok, I'll get it for you right away.
She looks foxy.
I know.
You do it.
What you said just now... is it intended to offend her?
What if it was?
But why?
Her look is not fit for selling food. It's for tempting men.
What are you talking about?
I'll take care of it.
Is there any reason you say that?
My husband stops by here everyday.
We have many regulars.
Students, old ladies... They are all our customers.
Look at this.
Seems it's taken in secret.
It's obvious that she adorns herself up to attract male customers.
Ma'am, neat and clean look is essential for a restaurant business, isn't it?
Being neat and trying to be attractive are different!
Smiling with her eyes, she must be tempting male customers to raise the sales.
A bowl of bibimbap is really not much of our sales.
And I serve dinner time customers, mostly men, with a male part-timer.
Can I ask you a question?
Sure.
You don't look like a married couple. What's your relationship?
Us?
Isn't it obvious?
We're lovers.
