Episode 40
Weren't you upset about the marriage talk?
Not at all.
Maybe I am wrong.
I think, maybe, it would be better to have you two marry...
...while Terry can still recognize you.
Please, go ahead.
Jade, when is your next manuscript due?
Six scripts by the end of July.
Why don't you complete all 16 episodes before due?
Doesn't completing production before it airs gives better quality?
No, since we can't correct weaknesses that can be found half way through the drama.
If we are making drama as it airs each week, we can adjust a storyline,
taking note of viewers' opinions.
Unexpected responses to the ready made drama are fatal.
It can either go downhill...
or swing upward. It's not in our control.
Oh. I didn't know that.
Unless a writer is incompetent, it's better to write in keeping pace with viewers' opinion.
That makes sense.
You know, I have quick sense.
Yes. So?
Mrs. Suh...she doesn't like you, right?
No.
Then why don't you talk about her very much?
Mothers are more active than fathers when it comes to son's marriage.
Her health is in poor condition these days.
She had her appendix out last week.
Before it collapsed or after?
It broke right after she got to ER.
That's not good, because it could contaminate the organs around.
That's why you go to the hospital every day?
Yes.
Anyway it is a good chance for you to gain favor with them.
You know....
We keep it a secret from Goodsoon to not disturb her study. She thinks her mom is in the U.S.
Keep it in accord. We'd better not tell this to our family though.
Ok.
Ms. Boss went to the States too.
Why?
Her junior designer in the past married an American guy, and she runs a boutique in Hawaii.
She invited her to come.
Gees, when will I be able to visit that paradise?
I'll send you there next year.
Really?
Just end with Dr. Yoo.
Well....Isn't he a bit cute though?
Where's your self-esteem?
That's why I'm giving him a hard time now.
My friends say they get fond of their younger brothers-in-law, but
I'm sure I can't like Dr. Yoo even if he becomes your husband.
By the way, give me the numbers of your family. Including Grandmas' numbers.
Why?
Who is this...?
Hello.
Hello?
Hi, Gangji. Did you change your number?
No, it's Goodsoon. I'm Amber's friend..
Are you there?
Yes, yes.
Did Amber tell you about me?
Huh?
Yes, yes...
Father, are you out of work?
Yes.
Can I go with Amber to see you?
I'll appreciate if you buy us noodle.
Ok. Tonight?
Yes. Did you already have dinner?
No.
Do you know Demyong Noodle House? Right next to Farmers Bank?
I think I know where it is. Are they good?
Yes.
Ok then, let's meet at seven.
Ok. See you there. Bye.
Good. I'll reason with you there.
But she sounded pretty amiable.
I'll be back soon.
Aren't you gonna eat dinner?
No.
Are you going to Goodsoon's house again?
Everybody's busy.
It's pathetic they're busy dating in their young age.
They're not young. U.S. teenagers go much farther.
Including you?
I was a role-model student.
They say "A father-in-law is the best friend of his daughter-in-law."
You are not there yet.
I'll make your father my supporter.
You are a real fox.
So you don't like it?
On the contrary.
Fight on!
Fight on...
This work will come to an end in a few days.
I know. I have mixed feelings.
I'm not glad though.
Of course you're not. All you've been doing is counting money.
Come on. Accounting is as hard as serving food.
Why not wearing your jacket?
Later. I need to talk to her.
Mother. Both Sangsik and I can't live in this state anymore.
It's a shame on our family while there's a marriage talk going on.
You deal with your kids.
It's hard to ask them to accept us back when they kicked us out.
Also, it won't be easy for them to tell us "Now it's enough. Come back."
That's right.
So what can we do?
You should help us.
Tell her it's not good for her image to have her parents live seperately.
Right.
Ok. In fact, it's been inconvenient for me to live with Sangsik.
Me too.
What? Metoori (hemp shoes)?
It's English. Meaning it is same with me. "Me" in English refers to "I".
Gees....
I was uncomfortable with you too.
I didn't ask you to come and live with me.
Anyway, this is the right moment,
when Coral moved to Gangji's house and Jade is expecting a marriage, right?
Right. Please help us to move back over this weekend.
They say "Strike the iron while it is hot." Should I bring it up tonight?
How do you do?
Hi.
Let me take your jacket.
Have you been here before?
My guardian has. She said they are good.
Three noodles and a dumpling.
Ok.
Do you like the flour food?
I do.
Sh's so charming.
I heard a lot about you from Amber.
Like what?
He must have complained about me.
He said you're so cool and was very popular when young.
I think it is true as I see you today.
I shouldn't get vulnerable.
So, why did you want to see me?
I was just curious about you.
Weren't you curious about me?
A little, yes.
Father, doesn't my name sound funny?
Huh? What's funny about it?
Allow me to keep on good terms with Amber.
Of course but,
as a classmate and as a future in-law.
We never know the future but,
I'll keep in mind what you said.
Please, don't give him a hard time because of me.
It hurts me.
He isn't worth your pain....
He is, very much.
Wait. I made a mistake.
Sorry that I didn't use the honorifics to my future in-law.
Father, you can just treat me as your son's friend.
Just casually, dad.
Ok, ok.
How about eating here?
Why not?
Hello.
Didn't you lock the gate?
Probably.
Hi.
Hi. Where's Jade?
Oh, she'll be home around nine.
Nine?
Do you like it?
Huh? Yes.
Do you have any worries?
Of course I do.
I'm always worried about my children's well-being.
Dad, you are number one in lip service.
Children can take care of themselves. Leave the matter up to them.
What's your own trouble?
Well. I feel sad getting old.
You are not old. You look still young.
Just appearance.
Then are you sick anywhere?
No.
Then why you say you're old?
Do you have any worries?
I wish I grow 4 inches taller.
Women don't need to be tall. I think short women are cute.
Aren't people nice to you?
Except him.
You are shorter but stronger than I am.
Please, stop growing.
You don't like a tall guy?
Doesn't matter. I like you as you are. Isn't he great, father?
Yeah. You only need to build up flesh in your upper body.
You mean muscles, not flesh.
Yes, muscle.
This is for you.... I hope you like it but,
If you don't, let go exchange it with me.
What is this? Reading glasses?
No. Sunglasses.
Really?
Did you buy this for me?
Yes.
Wow....
They look classy yet very modern.
Yeah, these look so.
Wow, by Jean Paul Gautier !
Please try on, father.
Gautier....Gautier?
Will these go well with me?
How do I look?
Awesome!
Do I look really awesome?
Yes. They go very well with you.
Do you have a mirror?
I have. Here.
My goodness!
Why?
I see Keanu Reeves in the mirror.
You are so funny.
Yeah, you look like Keanu Reeves in Matrix. Don't you think so?
Yes.
Thank you, Goodsoon.
But I didn't prepare any present for you.
I don't need anything for now.
But when I become a college student, buy me a moisturizer.
I'll get you a full set of skincare.
Thank you.
But these must be very expensive.
I've saved some money from my allowance.
Sunglasses are not a fashion item. They are a must.
If your eyes are exposed to sunlight too much,
you might have a cataract when you're old.
Really?
Good evening.
Wasn't she struggling today?
Yes, a little bit.
Please give her a massage to promote the blood circulation.
Ok. Your son and his girlfriend do that often.
And you watch TV?
They were here all along and just stepped out for dinner.
Lower the volume when she's sleeping.
Ok.
Thank you for the nice dinner.
Thank you.
How do you relieve stress?
Well... by having a drink with my friends and....
Do you go to karaoke?
Sometimes.
Why don't we go tonight?
You want?
Come on, my Dad knows only old songs.
So? Some in 80's and 90's are really good.
Right.
Yes, sir.
I asked my Mom about the song your mother sang,
and she remembered she learned it at church.
Oh....
What did you want to be when you were little?
Well....
An athlete.
What kind of?
I was good at playing basketball, football.... I like horse riding too.
I want to bring you to a horse riding.
Later.
How's the staff in your company? Competent?
Pretty much.
If you can leave the management to them,
I wish you do what you really like to do.
I can do what I like as a hobby. Bracelet and horse riding will be enough.
Do you play What?
I don't. I think a writer needs to learn it though.
I'll teach you. I'm almost a pro gambler.
No way.
I learned it for my mother, because they say it prevents dementia.
Oh....
When should I start teaching you?
Anytime.
Ok.
I feel honored to be able to teach a writer.
As I write, I found my many shortcomings.
I need to keep studying and learning.
To excel in any fields, people must put in double efforts than others.
I'll help you if there's anything I can do for you.
I am so touched....right here.
Do you have a room available?
Good evening.
Hi.
Where is it?
I'll show you.
Let's go
It's cold.
Who the heck spoils Shim Shin's song?
Do you see someone you know?
You know....
Don't tell your dad how I had a fun today. He'll be disappointed.
Excuse me.
Aren't you Sangsik?
Look, he is Sol Undoh!
By the way, how do you know my name?
It's me, Sol Boowang.
Sol Boowang?
Yes.
You are?
Yes.
Come on, that's impossible.
In fact, I got eyes and nose jobs.
Do I look strange?
Really? Are you really Sol Boowang?
I am.
By the way, you didn't change at all.
Come on....Man, how have you been?
This is my son.
Oh, is he?
How do you do?
Hi, nice to meet you. What a good-looking man!
But your daughter doesn't look like you at all.
She's my girlfriend.
Oh I see.
Do you live around here?
Yes. You too?
Yeah. Why don't we celebrate our meeting over a drink?
Sounds great!
Can we take a picture with you?
Sure.
Ok. I'll take a picture for you. Make a pose.
You stand like this.
You're gonna boast to your friends that you took a picture with Sol Undoh, huh?
Yep.
Squeeze more. There you go.
Now your dad will stand for you.
I think I am somewhat mantic.
Why?
Remember when you gave me a ride from work when I was sick?
The rainy day?
Yes.
That day, I felt you might disappear all of sudden.
And indeed, you disappeared as I predicted.
But I came back.
Even so....
You know the lyrics of Arirang.
"Dear who abandons me will not walk afar before his feet hurt."
Believe me, it was the toughest decision, and it's all for your sake.
That I know.
Gees, I feel pain in the wrist.
Which one?
Right one.
Want a massage?
If you hold my hand, the pain will be gone.
You have to drive.
I do now.
Mrs. Suh is not suffering from depression.
Then?
She has Alzheimer.
Alzheimer?
Yes. She stays in a VIP suit in Ilwon Hospital. She also had her appendix out last week.
Ms. Goong and Mr. Suh don't seem to hang out.
She spends most of her time in looking after Mrs. Suh.
-What kind of soju can I get for you? - "Like a Bachelor" please.
Ok.
Can I see your sunglasses?
Oh....
It looked cool.
Gautier, Gautier....
This is a Jean Paul Gautier. You can try.
Looks expensive.
How do I look?
It goes well with you too.
Really?
Yeah.
So, how have you been?
As you may know by my face, I work as an imitation singer.
Really? Have you ever been on air?
To come out on TV, even imitation singers should be well-known.
How many children do you have?
Never married. No child.
Are you still single?
Yes.
Why?
I gave my heart to singing.
Come on, then every singer should remain as a single, but they don't. Right?
I think marriage is not for everybody.
I think you showed your talent in singing since you were young.
By the way, I think you look much better than before.
Is it because you got a wonderful wife?
Not exactly. But my children do good to me.
As k me about my children.
What do they do for a living?
Did you watch the special drama Old Lassies?
Yes, I did.
My first daughter wrote it.
Really?
Yeah! Hey, get closer.
She a writer, a drama writer.
Oh really?
Almighty writer!
Honey, pick up the phone.
Old boy
Grandma, who is "Old boy"?
Oh....One of our regulars.
The one who gave me the cell phone.
Wow. So you got a boyfriend.
He's not my boyfriend.
Why not?
Forget about it.
So cold.
These tangerines are so sweet.
Grandma, try one.
I don't like sour fruits.
If it's sour, you can burn my hands.
Don't say that even as a joke.
Here. Try.
How is it?
So sour.
No way. It's sweet!
To me it's sour. You'll understand when you're old.
Isn't it sweet?
Yes.
I feel so happy whenever I have sweet fruits.
Jade.
Yes?
When there's a talk of marriage,
it's not good for you to have your parents live separately.
They might think us as a boorish family.
Why don't you reunite with them?
They'll help you by looking after Prince and preparing meals.
But would they move back setting aside their pride?
I can talk to them.
Look. You parents are not what they used to be.
As I see your mom working at the restaurant, she's totally changed.
She works so hard.
Are you sure?
Yeah.
Wouldn't you feel lonely when Dad leaves you?
I'm totally ok.
You know I am not a person fiddling around.
Only those who have nothing to do think they are lonely.
That's true. If I have a time to feel lonely, I'd rather sleep.
Look. How about I talk to them tonight?
To move back this weekend.
And?
Who is it?
It's Sangsik!
What's wrong with his voice?
Coming.
My my...
Dadadadada....
What are you doing?
Oh, must have had a drink, huh?
Take it off. Why the sunglasses at night? You look crazy.
Leave him alone. He looks awesome.
With whom did you drink?
I had dinner with Amber and Goodsoon!
And I had a drink with a famous singer!
What? Who?
Mother, he fibs.
I don't.
Then who?
Wait. Let me talk in order.
I bought dinner for Amber and Goodsoon.
She's really something.
How could you meet her without discussing with me?
I couldn't say "no," when she called me to buy her noodle.
Did she?
Yeah.
So? You reasoned with her, right?
Honey, she made me more avaricious.
What?
Avaricious for what?
For having her as my daughter-in-law.
You're so wishy-washy!
She really knows how to turn on the charm.
Come on. Gangji is charming too!
But she's different from Gangji.
My my....how could you be taken in by that little girl. Gees..
Mom, a man can live with a foxy woman but not with a slow-witted woman.
If Amber marries Goodsoon, he'll live happily ever after.
She's not even an ordinary foxy girl. She's a nine-tailed fox.
Full of charms.
Are you really that thoughtless? What about Jade?
Huh?
I want to marry my kids to those they are in love with. That's the best.
Having the same in-laws?
Yes.
Come on. Their parents are strongly against it.
That's the problem.
I really wish we have her as our second-daughter-in-law.
Why are you lying down?
Sleepy....
Mother, take me in just for tonight.
Hey, sit up.
Go to your place and sleep!
You can open.
I think the boiler is out of order.
Oh.
It's too cold for me to get to sleep.
I'll go to the sauna room to sleep in.
No way.
You can sleep in Coral's room.
Can I? Will it be ok with you?
You are now like our own family. Come on in with your comforter.
Have some tangerines.
Ok.
You must have felt so cold. How could you try to sleep in "nenggoreh"?
What does that mean exactly?
You know the hypocaust flue. People in the past floored a place with flat stones.
And made a fire in the furnace?
Right. And the heat passed through flues. We call that "goreh."
"Nenggoreh" is a derived word, meaning "a very cold room."
Do you snore?
Nope. Both Jedoug and I have good sleeping habits.
You can sleep in comfort.
Is Prince sleeping with Amber?
Yes. He's been following Amber everywhere these days.
We have extra money. If you want to move to more convenient place, just tell us.
I don't feel any inconvenience.
But the boiler is old and out of order.
We can get it repaired.
You're too attached to leave us, right?
If I say "yes," you'll say I shouldn't be attached to anything as a monk-to-be,
won't you?
You got it.
As I live, I think Korean underfloor heating system is great.
In America, we heat the air but not the floor.
Then you wouldn't feel refreshed even after a sleep, huh?
Right. I especially love an underfloor-heating room in a temple.
When I was disciplined there, I used to work hard all day long.
And at night, my whole body ached all over.
But once I lay on a heated floor and had a good sleep....
Koreans compare that to "searing".
Ok, so once I "sear" my body, I would feel so light the next day.
If I were a man,
I would import Korean heating system and run a business in the U.S.
Then I'll invest in your business, if you want.
That's okay.
Do you have any hidden money?
It's my earned money in the U.S.
Younggook is searching for a vege restaurant to treat you.
Why bother? I can eat meat just for once.
Look,
Cows live on fodder, right?
Yes.
Then how come they have fat in the body?
Interesting.
A body produces fat by itself when it doesn't take in any cholesterol.
Eating well-balanced meal is the best policy.
That makes sense.
Not all of vegetarians, like monks, are healthy free from heart diseases, are they?
No.
Lean mean fits in well with a healthy diet.
Look at me. I don't have flab and I don't get sick frequently.
And you are good at petty tricks.
Exactly.
I will listen to the nurse. Starting tomorrow, I'll stop being a vegetarian.
Whatever we eat, we shouldn't do excessively.
How come all those Korean TV actors and actresses are in good shapes?
They are all on a diet.
Woobin is a born actor.
And he has such a nice skin.
Jade, strip him off in your next drama.
Why?
To see his body.
Why do you need to see his body?
Just because. Men pin up girls' pictures in bikini, drooling over them.
Why can't women gloat over a man's body? At least, we don't drool.
But you swallow, huh?
Yep.
Boy....
I won't cast him for my next drama.
Why?
Because he doesn't fit in with the new character.
Good actors win a writer's favor, right?
Didn't Woobin try to win your favor this time?
He's at a top, and he just acted up to his name.
As I watch Korean dramas, some actors' acting seem so unnatural, like exaggerated.
That really bothers me.
I know. Lots of actors don't know their acting should be natural.
Don't they monitor their own acting?
They do.
But they themselves have a sweet illusion about their acting.
In a few days, we'll have our lives back!
Yeah....
What? Water?
Yes.
Don't we have honey?
You gave one to Gangji.
Oh, right.
We can move back to our home this weekend.
Are you sure?
Your mother persuaded Jade.
Let's make no more trouble and never be kicked out again.
Don't worry about me.
I'm serious. From now on, I'll live for my family.
So should you. Devote yourself to taking care of our children.
Ok.
And make broiled fish for me every day.
What will you do for me in return?
Me? I'll give you all my salary.
And...I'll give myself to you.
Oh, no thank you.
Fine. You sure, huh?
Yes.
Fine.
Hey!
Why did you turn it on?
Hold on....
Wait....
Write.
Write what?
That you reject my offer to give myself to you.
Boy.....
Now!
Ok. Fine.
You're being so cheap.
"I hereby reject my husband's offer to give himself to me."
Here.
Sign the paper.
My... I can't believe we're being cheap and nasty.
We are in the same league.
Fold like this,
and put this under the pillow.
Oh, brother...
So childish.
Can't believe this....
Finally, I'll be free from cleaning and dishwashing.
Goodsoon, you dad is here.
Dad?
Yes.
What time is it?
Eight!
What's with you?
Just to want to have a breakfast with my daughter.
How about with Younggook?
No. He went to a horseriding.
Can I sleep 30 more minutes please?
Didn't I say "No slugabed has ever succeeded"?
Gees, I don't want to succeed. Just want to support Amber to succeed.
You don't have a sense of humor.
Why do you bring it up out of the blue?
Maybe, Mom suffers from depression because of you.
I've been doing my best but why do you blame me for anything bad?
Try to change your character just like I did.
I'm trying.
Mom still hasn't phoned?
No.
When she's back, treat her with sincere love.
And try to spend more time with her.
Ok.
Amber's dad is so funny and friendly.
He bought us a dinner yesterday. He took us to a karaoke too.
Did he sing?
Yes.
Dad, can you do this?
Oh my love...
What's that?
A popular song by Shim Shin in the past.
My Only Love
You know that song? You don't, huh?
My father-in-law-to-be sang and even danced to the music. He was killing good.
He has no choice if both of them insist marrying our children.
No parents can break the will of their child. You know why?
Why?
Because of original sin.
Original sin?
Parents pass on original sin to their child by giving him a birth.
That's why we always feel guilty to our children.
Well....
I wish both Younggook and Goodsoon join my family.
I don't want to lose both.
You can't change Mr. Suh's mind, ok?
I don't have to.
All I need to do is to be nice to Younggook, calling him like "My dear son-in-law,"
and to be nice to Goodsoon at the same time,
calling her "My dearest daughter-in-law!"
Lip service will do. And a few pats on their backs.
Wait, that's not a lip service, 'cause I'm gonna tell that out of my heart.
You know what? You are a big mouth.
So? You don't like it?
Frankly speaking, I prefer a talkative man to reticent one.
Men like me are better lifetime companions. You see I help you trim scallions.
Don't expect any daily wage.
I won't. Give me monthly salary.
Oh....
Here comes my daughter.
Are you off today?
Yes. But I'm working now as you see.
Are you seeing Younggook every day?
Yes.
I think if we accept Goodsoon as our daughter-in-law, it'll work better for you.
Let's not talk about it for a while.
Ok, ok.
Did you hear from Grandma?
Yes.
I know you might have felt bitter against us.
Absolutely not.
How about you?
In fact, we're more to blame.
Both of us made silly mistakes.
As I look back, we were out of mind at that time.
Me too.
Though Prince is now loved by everybody, he must have brought you guys great shock.
I really regretted my wrongdoings.
As I was stressed out, I overly resented and hurt you with words.
Forgive me.
That I can understand.
As I lived with my mom, I was able to understand how you must have felt.
Me too.
Your grandma stressed me out so often.
I even had medicine to calm myself down.
But it was good for both of us,
since we were able to reflect of ourselves.
Let's work on our family tie again.
Sure. I am now ready for it.
You've toiled and moiled because of silly mom.
I'm so sorry.
Past is past. Important is our future.
In fact, it was really tough to live without you.
I know. You had to work at the restaurant, do house chores,
you have to write, and look after your siblings.
A quadruple role.
I wish your mom took after you....
I have to go number one....
You wanna do a high five?
Give me five!
I have to pee.
Good evening!
Oh, hi.
Ruby went to work.
I came to see you.
Were you doing kitchen work?
Yes. Dishwashing.
Is Amber home?
Yes.
Have you thought about it, oppa?
Well....As I told you, my schedule is pretty irregular.
I can adjust my schedule to yours.
What are you doing?
To help you.
It's ok.
In America, it's rude to insist my way when the other party says 'no,' right?
Right.
I feel cold. Maybe because I walked all the way from home.
You want some hot tea?
Yes.
Coffee or black tea?
Black tea, please.
Oppa, give me your answer tonight. Please?
I really want to learn English.
I can't learn alone due to my weak wills.
Was everything ok?
Yes.
Please take these....
What are these?
Presents to Mr. Suh.
Mr. Hwang.
Yes, sir.
You know Shim Shin the singer....
Yes.
His "My...", what was that song?
"My Only Love," you mean?
Yes. I like to hear that song.
This is the one?
Yes. I added it to your "Favorites."
Thanks.
Good night, sir.
Good night.
Do you have a pain?
Not serious though.
Let's have a seat at the lounge.
Have a seat here.
It'll be ok.
Come on. I'm pretty good at giving a massage.
Well....
Ouch!
Your muscles are in a knot.
Take a rest at home for a couple of days. Don't come here.
I just keep her company, and read a book.
Looking after a patient is not easy, though.
Feels so good.
Do you watch the talk show, Big Circle?
Yes.
One of the panelists of that show said she would fall for any man...
...if he gave her a good rubdown.
Then I'll give you a rubdown every day and keep you in love with me.
That's her saying, not mine.
Don't come out of your home tomorrow.
If I do, will I be in trouble?
Yep.
Even one step out of the gate?
That's the border line.
I like to go to the movies.
What movie and what time?
Aren't you cold?
Exercise gives me heat.
Doing a big cleanup?
Yes.
My parents are coming back this weekend.
Really? When did you make that laudable decision?
Don't be sarcastic.
I'm not. I'm serious.
So, Sunmi came here today, huh?
Amber told you that?
What? You wanna keep it a secret?
Not even.
We'll start from next week.
Isn't she interested in you by any chance?
Who would be interested in people like me?
You are not bad.
I know Korean women like good-looking and flamboyant men.
Those who are stylish, wealthy, and eloquent.
You are eloquent too.
It depends on topics.
Women like to hear sweet talk, not a lecture. I'm not good at flattery.
Or maybe you're interested in her, huh?
Think whatever you want.
Mom.
Why?
Will you throw me a farewell party?
Farewell party?
You can't send your only son away on an empty-stomach.
You're moving back to your home, a stone throw away,
where your cute children wait for you.
Mom, Prince is the only cute child.
The rest of them seem fierce like lions.
You should be thankful to have a son like me.
I'm thankful that I have only one son, otherwise...
What? Finish your talk.
Never mind. I'm happy to send you off. Please do well this time.
Don't be kicked out again.
So, you're not gonna hold a meaty feast for me?
Cut the crap.
Before you leave, pay me your living costs up to date!
Are you a bully? Stop hitting me! I'm a grown-up son.
I need to hit you to feel appeased. Got problem with that?
What?
You should be thankful to be hit by a healthy mom instead of looking after me in a sickbed.
Come on, you're too strong to lie in a sickbed.
You think I can't attack a vital spot?
That that!
Mother, what is this?
Jade.
Right, this is jade. And I'm Jade, too.
Mother, is this a ring?
Bracelet.
Right, it's a bracelet.
Mother, we are exactly one month ahead of the New Year day. Do you know that?
I'm going to wear a hanbok and do a New Year's bow to you.
Will you give me gift money?
Yes.
How much? $1?
Or $10?
Yes.
Come on. Don't be stingy.
I am spicy.
I mean $10 for the New Year gift money is too small.
Doesn't matter to me.
Get well soon,
so that you can wear a hanbok and receive my bow on the New Year day, ok?
Yes.
Promise me.
Mother, like this. Hook pinkie like this.
And fix a seal.
Is it funny?
Yes....
She was holding this tightly to give you.
The night before we met second time,
a burglar alarm woke up everybody in my family.
When I found my mother in pajama trying to open the gate,
she said she wanted to go out to give this to you.
Mother!
Oh, hi!
Coral's coming too.
I see. So you have morning sickness?
Yes but I'm ok.
Where are Grandmas?
One is in the restroom, and the other went to a beauty salon.
So Goong Grandma in the restroom, and Joe Grandma at a beauty salon?
You got it.
By the way, you know Amber's girlfriend....
Goodsoon?
Yes.
How does she look?
Looks very clever.
Doesn't she look like her brother?
They are totally different.
Mother!
Oh, hi!
I just wanted to see you on the way.
Oh....
Why?
This is for you.
Oh....
What's the occasion?
Just to refresh you. Because flowers make us feel good.
Oh...Thank you.
You remind me of baby's breath among all flowers.
Is my image weak?
No. Misty and delicate.
Is that a compliment?
Of course.
She's a real trickster.
My daughter-in-law, Amber's sister-in-law.
Oh! How do you do? I am Goodsoon Suh.
Hi.
How rude not using the honorifics on a first meeting!
Did you hear about me?
That you are Younggook's sister?
And that I am Amber's fiancee,
waiting for our parents' approval.
Mother, please don't turn me down.
I want to be loved by you. Please?
How did she look? She's not gonna stop by?
She has big eyes and tanned skin.
Must be cute!
Not as cute as you, though.
I'm sorry to say this to Amber or Younggook but....
She sucks.
Why?
I wish she would not join this family for peace's sake.
I don't think I can get along well with her.
And if we are on bad terms, you and Amber can be at odds with each other.
What's the problem?
Is she rude?
I think she's a type of person who accomplishes her purpose...
...by fair means of foul.
Humm....
I think I need to see her.
You don't believe me?
Of course I do.
Coral, they're all done.
Ok.
Mother, you have to eat to get well soon.
Mother....
Sing.
Sing?
Sing a song.
Will you eat if I sing?
Yes.
Let's see... Oh.
Let me sing a drama soundtrack, though I don't remember its lyrics for sure.
It's a bit sad.
Mother, this song makes me feel sad, because it reminds me of the time Younggook left me.
Do you know he once deserted me?
I didn't mean to desert her.
Harder, please. Like this.
Ouch....
Good job.
You are on my side.
I was sad too.
Mother. Now it's your turn to eat.
You are more beautiful than Liz Taylor.
