Episode 45
Good afternoon!
Have you eaten lunch?
If you haven't, try this.
It's a new menu I came up with.
What are you staring at?
Divorce papers?
She signed it? She did, huh?
What about Jinwu?
She gave up custody.
How did you do it?
Why did she change her mind?
I said I'd help her dad.
Now...
You're the only one.
Mr. Lee. It's me.
Yes.
I have a favor to ask you.
Go ahead.
Mr. Jeong says that
he's loaning money to President Baek.
Is it true?
What?
Ah. Yes.
He...
Tell President Gwak.
He specifically asked me not to.
Call her.
Mr. Lee. What is it?
What?
Mr. Jeong is lending him money?
How much?
Is he out of his mind? Bye!
Ms. Kim. It's me.
Mr. Jeong told you to
send money to President Baek.
Don't do it.
Didn't you hear me? Don't do it.
Hey.
Yes, ma'am.
Get the car ready.
Bae Chuja.
Aren't you going to apologize to me?
For what?
Come on!
We went to have steak for my birthday
and you threw a fit instead!
Fine. I'm sorry.
Shall we go today?
Why would we? No way.
You owe me a meal.
Are you that obsessed with steak?
It's makes me mad when I think about it.
That's family's nothing but trouble.
Your brother has terrible taste in women.
Good women are chubby,
warm and pretty just like me.
Dream on.
What do you think of my pasta?
You think I'll win the competition?
It's not bad.
It's delicious.
The winner of the new menu competition
will be me, Miranda.
You're right. It's your destiny.
Don't be so sure.
You haven't tried my steak yet.
What?
Let me try it.
What is this?
Did you cook it right?
I can't cut it.
That can't be.
Let me try.
Learn to cook properly.
You call yourself a competitor?
Where are you going, Chef Bae?
Where are you going, Ms. Jeong?
Ms. Jeong?
My goodness...
Give it here.
Hurry!
Goodness.
It looks great.
- Say ah. / - Say ah.
Try it.
This is tastes like our love.
Sweet and sour.
What?
Sweet and sour.
Lovey dovey?
Let's eat.
Chansik.
After your sister told you not to...
Hello.
Let's talk.
Why?
I need to talk to you. Come on.
Forget it. Bye.
- Hey! / - Oh no.
Hey!
Even if you're scared,
you should finish your noodles first.
What a waste.
Why'd he have to run?
I wanted to ask him to pay for our noodles.
Idiot.
Forget you.
Did you send the money?
Well...
I told her not to.
Mom.
He's in the office, right?
President Gwak arrived.
She told me not to let anyone in.
You tried to send that much money
without my approval?
I'm still the president of this company.
I know that but...
If you know, then why?
Give me my stamp back.
Mother.
I'm asking you as the president.
Give me my stamp back.
You fool.
My father-in-law is in trouble.
He helped me before.
That's all in the past.
Shouldn't you have told me first?
Is it your money?
It's the company's money.
I looked into it, too.
Baek's company
is undergoing a lawsuit regarding fraud.
If we give him money now
do you think we'll get it back?
He's Jinwu's grandfather.
I can't ignore him.
You were the one who opposed the divorce.
This is another issue.
Don't mix personal life with business.
If we help them out,
we could be ruined as well.
Don't you get it?
What happened to you?
You were determined to divorce her
so why are you trying to help her now?
What are you up to?
It's nothing.
Let me handle my own affairs.
Don't worry about me.
This is how you handle your affairs?
I'll get going now. I have a meeting.
Hello.
- You. / - Yes?
If he tries to send the money...
Never mind. Forget it.
She couldn't stop him either?
The recipient is busy. After the tone...
Seongbin.
Dad should have the money by now.
Use that to pay off crucial debts.
I bought you some aspirin.
Thanks.
Is it true, Huija?
Yes.
Yumi, you work there.
What's going on?
There are so many rumors.
It's so hectic.
Some people already quit.
Some are looking for other jobs.
How could he let this happen?
Who cares?
He let down his guard
and so he got fooled.
At times like these,
shouldn't we help him out?
After all, they're our in-laws.
She's right.
It's my workplace too.
You're not going to help?
Please help us.
Don't be ridiculous.
You think I have that kind of money?
Am I a charity group?
But still...
Stop talking about it.
I'm not going to risk my neck.
- Mother... / - Mom!
- Hey, Jinwu. / - Have a seat.
Yeonhui.
Your dad's company's in crisis?
Oh no.
I didn't have a chance to tell you.
But he offered to help.
Byeongguk did?
He offered to help?
Thank goodness.
I stopped him.
What?
Didn't you hear me?
I told him not to send the money.
Mother!
Why did you do that?
You should've let him help.
I told you. We can't go down with him.
Don't get mad at me.
We're having trouble too.
We need money for our overseas launch.
But when your company was in trouble,
my father helped you out.
That was then.
We're not in a position to help him.
Still mom. You should do something.
What if I can't work there anymore?
Is that your only option?
Why'd I even pay for your education?
I'm home.
What happened?
Mother said she stopped you.
It just happened.
What about my dad then?
After the new menu competition,
I'll try and convince her tomorrow.
You have to help.
I did what you asked.
It's your turn to do as I say.
Mom, I'm sleepy.
Okay, Jinwu. Hold on.
Please help.
Okay. I'll do my best.
Mom.
Let's go, Jinwu.
One, two points.
Go? First go?
No. No go.
Here you go.
I was wondering what you were doing.
You made this for us?
It looks good.
Sora, you're the best.
Enjoy.
Sora, eat with us.
I have homework to do.
I had some while I was making it.
Enjoy.
Sure thing. Let's eat.
You have to eat well to live well.
I can't be doing this right now.
Why not?
You saw my brother.
He's still dating that woman.
I knew when I first saw her.
She's fox who's out to ruin men.
But not Shik.
No way.
- Chuja. / - Hey.
- You're here. / - Hi, Shik.
Have a seat.
Come sit down.
Again? Oh, come on.
Eat.
What's your problem?
Do you plan on marrying her?
I'm 45 now.
Yeah, I know!
Why are so immature?
You know what family she's from.
Hwayeong's already giving me a headache.
Why are you the same way?
Hwayeong is Hwayeong and I'm me.
Hwayeong has no right
to get in the way of my happiness.
Are you kidding me?
And you call yourself her uncle?
You bastard!
Ow. Don't. Ow!
Don't hit him.
Hey, move.
Stop it.
Don't hit your only brother.
That hurt, right?
I can't believe this.
- Hello. / - Welcome.
What's going on?
Well...
Your uncle and the restaurant...
We weren't fighting.
We're always on good terms.
Right, Shik?
Of course.
She's my one and only sister.
Ow.
What were you doing in the dark?
Nothing.
You've been acting strange lately.
Is this about the company?
It's got nothing to do with work.
Then why can't you sleep?
Sleep is the best medicine.
I think it's male menopause.
It doesn't just happen to women.
Men get menopause, too.
My goodness...
Come on.
Thank you, honey.
For what?
For staying by my side.
Why all of a sudden?
I was thinking about the old days.
I should've just let things be.
Why'd I have to force my way on everybody?
Why was I so selfish?
Why was I so difficult?
Is that why people called me a snake?
When I look around now,
you're all that I've got.
Back then, you did what you thought was best.
I did.
I was too selfish to care about others.
Now that I'm old,
I think I'm finally maturing.
Oh, honey.
What?
Daemin Bank called.
They are selling off your stocks
in an auction because
you didn't pay back the loan.
Call President Kim.
I'll have to ask him for more time.
He's ignoring our calls.
You won't be able to reach him.
Do the shareholders know?
This new menu competition
is currently being held at
our newly opened venue.
Now we're down to the final 4 dishes.
Please taste and score them.
Shall we begin?
What do you think?
My pasta's the best, right?
Your pasta is light, smooth
and a healthy choice, but...
But what?
It didn't amaze me.
So you didn't like it?
It's not that.
But um...
Did you help Hwayeong with her entry?
No, not at all.
It was pretty good.
President Gwak,
have you tried my BBQ onion pork steak?
I ask for your honest opinion.
It was a sweet and salty steak
paired with an onion ring.
It wasn't bad.
Did you really make it?
Yes.
I felt that New Yorkers
and Koreans would both enjoy it.
Excuse me.
John.
Great timing.
Thanks to the chefs you introduced me to,
I think my dish will get chosen.
Yes.
What?
Mr. Baek's stocks are up for auction?
Then buy them all.
Please John. Thanks.
Who was that?
Oh, just someone I know.
John?
Someone I knew from the States.
You're not jealous, are you?
No.
Your dish was really good.
I care so much for your company's success.
That's why I did my best.
Everyone liked your dish.
The judges seem to like it, too.
If it gets chosen, let's celebrate together.
Sounds great.
They're doing it in public now?
They're crazy.
That's disgusting.
What do you need to say?
Mom. President Baek...
I'm done talking about that.
Mr. Jeong. Let me ask you once again.
Why do you want to help him?
You're trying to get a divorce,
so why are you helping her family?
Mom.
My divorce has nothing to do
with President Baek's company.
Everyone in this industry knows
that he's my father-in-law.
What will they think if we abandon him?
His problems are also our problems.
Our company is still growing
and everyone is jealous.
So mom...
All right. I'll give it more thought.
There's no time.
If we are going to help
we need to do it now.
All right then. Just this once.
No more.
Don't take divorce lightly.
I'm not saying I forgive Yeonhui,
but I'm letting it go for Jinwu's sake.
Do you understand me?
Mr. Jeong.
Apologies.
I didn't mean to interrupt.
What is it?
I'm going to help my father-in-law.
What?
That way, I can put an end to this.
I see.
Wait.
What is it?
I have to tell you something.
Mr. Kim. Wait outside for a bit.
Yes, ma'am.
Hop in.
What is this about?
It's about Yeonhui.
Jinwu's mom?
Don't tell me. I don't want to hear it.
You must.
You told me something ridiculous
about her relations with Mr. Yu last time.
What is it this time?
I know that you hate me.
That's why I'm hesitant.
But I think you should know this.
It's about Yeonhui's former lover.
That?
I already know about him.
You do?
Most people don't marry their first love.
Even if she dated 10 men before Byeongguk,
none of that matters in today's society.
Yes, she lived with her lover.
I'm an open-minded person.
I'm willing to overlook
my daughter-in-law's past.
You got that?
So don't say anything ridiculous
and mind your own business.
Well...
Did you know she had a child?
A child?
I guess Mr. Jeong didn't tell you that.
I thought you should know why
Mr. Jeong is set on divorcing Yeonhui.
She said that baby died,
but that's not true.
Her child is alive.
Mr. Kim, turn the car around.
Did Grace Lee's steak win the contest?
Yes, it got the highest score.
But the pasta that the head chef made
can be altered slightly
and brought to the new menu as well.
Mother.
- Mr. Lee, wait outside. / - Yes, ma'am.
Didn't you go home?
You.
Did you know Yeonhui had a baby
before she married you?
Is it true?
Yes.
Mother, you see...
Why didn't you tell me? Why?
I couldn't tell you that.
It's bad enough that she lived with her lover,
but she had a child, too?
Don't send the money to President Baek.
Mother.
Stop it right now!
Yes, mother?
Come home right now.
What is it?
It's nothing.
I have to go home.
Huija.
What's this about?
Come in.
What's going on?
Did you know as well?
Before Yeonhui got married...
I know she lived with another guy.
We've been through this.
Why're you still upset?
It's not that.
Then, what?
She had a child.
Yeonhui had a child.
Well, yeah...
You knew?
I didn't want you to find out.
Everyone lied to me.
We didn't. The past is in the past.
What does it matter?
Yes, but still!
Let's be honest.
Byeongguk was no saint.
How many women did we have to pay off?
So? Did he have a child?
If he had,
I wouldn't be this upset!
I'm home.
Huija.
How dare you make a mockery of my family?
You filthy woman.
Get out. Get out!
How dare you marry my son
after having another man's child?
Grandma, what are you doing?
Mom. Mom.
Jinwu, she's fine.
Go upstairs. Hurry.
What are you doing? Jinwu's here.
She's Jinwu's mom.
Now I know why she couldn't have children.
She was too filthy.
I should've known when she
passed out during the wedding ceremony.
I have to kick her out.
Don't say that.
You want Lee Hwayeong here instead?
Jinsuk!
So please don't...
Don't say another word.
You're just the same.
How could we let her in?
Mom.
Don't cry.
Does it hurt?
No, I'm fine.
I hate grandma.
Mom.
Jinwu.
I'm fine. Come here.
Don't cry.
You look great today, Jinwu.
Really?
Yeah. Aram will be happy
when she sees how handsome you are.
But mom,
when will I marry Aram?
When you grow up like your dad.
Then I better grow up quickly.
Yes, dear.
Let's go say goodbye to grandma.
No. I don't want to.
I hate her.
You can't say that.
Grandma hates you.
That's not true.
We're late. Let's go.
She had a child?
- How dare she? / - Grandma!
My puppy.
I'm off to school.
Okay, my baby.
Let's go.
You're taking him to school?
Yes.
All right.
- I'll be back. / - All right.
Hey.
Yes, ma'am.
Go pack a bag.
What?
Go pack Yeonhui's things.
Don't let her back in.
Mr. Kim. It's me.
In 30 minutes, go to Jinwu's school,
get Jinwu and call me.
Just do what I say.
What are you doing?
Go pack her bag.
Yes, ma'am.
Wait. Call the locksmith
and get the locks changed.
It's me.
Go close the cafe right now.
We need to change the interior.
Close up shop.
I said today, not tomorrow.
Right now.
Jinwu, let me fix your bag.
There we go.
When will we get to the beach?
Aram says she went to see it.
Were you sad that I was so busy?
I'll stick right onto you from now on.
Like this.
Should we go to the beach next week?
Yeah.
Are you staying home now?
Of course.
I'll come pick you up later.
Today and tomorrow.
I'm going to pick you up everyday.
Really?
I'm so happy!
You are?
Be good to your teachers and classmates.
Okay. Bye bye.
No matter who comes
don't open the door.
No way.
Don't ever set foot here again.
Don't even try to see Jinwu again.
Mother. Mother!
Jinwu.
Mom.
You signed the divorce papers?
I heard you gave up custody too.
Soon, I'll become Jinwu's true mother.
