It says so here, on this written promise.
Goodness, why make such a fuss?
Why make her rib patties too? The stir-fried noodles are enough.
I don't have a choice. She put the farm up for sale already.
I have to do the best I can.
You were so good earlier. You could win an academy award.
How can you act so well?
How do you think I feel on the inside?
Mother, you have to be nice to her.
I'm pounding away at this beef. Make sure it doesn't go to waste.
I have an honest heart.
I can't just lie like that because I plan to.
Are you saying that I have a lying, dirty heart then?
Yes, your heart is a little contaminated and wicked.
Mother, you're upsetting me.
Why do you think I ended up this way?
I have four sons.
My husband gets into trouble before I can forget the last time.
Trying to clean up his mound of trouble and raise those boys...
That's how I ended up this way.
I wasn't like this from the beginning.
The rib patty is burning. Turn it over!
It's all done.
Please heat up the stew on the stove!
"Mound of trouble?" If he's was a mound then my husband's was Mt. Everest!
Don't make such a big deal out of nothing.
- Here? Together? - Yes.
I'm going to talk nicely and convince her during dinner.
So don't be mean to her.
Especially you, Taepil.
- Did you discuss this with mom? - Of course I did.
I can't make a decision like this without consulting her.
- Did you really? - I did!
You just worry about your own affairs.
We're going to have to give the farm back one day.
Let's just move now, dad.
If we have an additional member, it will be hard for mom.
She's had a hard life already.
I know that, but your mom suggested it first.
Dad, don't hide behind mom and avoid reality.
Mom doesn't want to give up the farm. She can't think rationally.
It's not just because I don't want to move.
If we're nice to her, we can keep running the orchard.
You don't know what kind of person Baek Inho's daughter is.
- She could have problems. - Like what?
She could lack morals or not abide by the law.
Is that a joke? Humor?
Have you ever seen him crack a joke?
Don't be rude to your brother.
It's because what Taehui suggested is ridiculous.
Don't be rude to him again. You'll be in big trouble.
Were you all in here? Dinner's ready.
Yes, mom.
Stir-fried noodles, rib patties!
Jaeun, aren't you coming?
You must be hungry. Come out and eat.
Is it a special day today?
- It looks good. - Her acting's even better.
The Academy Awards will call your mother soon.
Jaeun, are you going to take much longer?
No, I'm coming.
It's so cool. I feel great.
Jaeun, you look so pretty and fair after washing up.
They don't call me the national goddess for nothing.
Did you know that this has surfactants in it?
So does the body cleanser and conditioner. You have to change it all.
It's really bad for your skin.
- What's she blabbing on about? - Really? Okay.
If you say it's bad, I must change it.
Sit down. Let's eat.
Yes.
Mom, we're all seated now.
- Yes, let's eat. - Thank you for the meal!
Jaeun, try this. It's rib patty.
Rib patty? I don't see any ribs in it.
It's just called that. It doesn't actually have ribs in it.
But many people tell me to open up a restaurant. How is it?
Wow! It's really good!
- Really? You like it? - Yes.
It's called rib patty since it tastes so good that it tickles your ribs!
Jaeun, you're so well-spoken and funny.
Jaeun, do you want to have good food every day?
If you live here with us, you can. How about it?
- Here? - Yes.
Then we won't have to hurry moving out in this hot summer.
It must be hard for you being alone too.
- You could lean on us. - You're like a daughter to us.
You don't have anyone to lean on after going through that at your age.
You must be so sad and worried.
I lost my dad early too. Then my mom passed away.
I know how scared you must be.
I was making dinner and my heart ached thinking of you.
I could feel my heart go numb as I cooked the rib patties.
Do you mean it? Or are you just saying that?
Why would I lie to you?
Jaeun, try the seasoned raw crab too.
I haven't thought about it.
Of course I don't want to live alone.
- I don't want that either. - Yes.
But I still have 1 semester left.
To go to school from here...
Don't worry about that.
My youngest son and husband will take you to the station every morning.
They'll go and pick you up too, no matter how late it is.
Taepil's hobby is to go pick up the rest of the family.
It's also my husband's reason for living. He loves it.
On standby, 24 hours a day. Don't worry about a thing.
Okay.
Jaeun, do you know how to eat seasoned raw crab?
Your dad is allergic to it.
- How did you know? - Of course I know.
I saw him every day in high school.
I've seen him naked. That's how close we are.
He has webbed toes, right?
Yes.
Stop bothering her. Let her eat. Hurry and eat.
Eat up.
It's all done.
It's all soft. You'll be able to sleep well here.
Thank you.
It's so fragrant. You can't buy this fresh air with money.
Jaeun, come and smell it.
Excuse me, but I'm tired.
Really? You must be. You had a busy day.
- Sleep well then. - Yes, you too.
Okay, good night.
Jaeun, think about it, okay?
It's a little hard.
But it's nice.
Dad, do you know where I am?
I'm at Ojakgyo Farm. Our farm that you mentioned.
The family here are nice people.
They all greeted me warmly.
Mr. Hwang remembers that you can't eat seasoned raw crab.
Also that you have webbed toes.
I think I may wait for you here at Ojakgyo Farm.
If I live here, Mr. Hwang's family doesn't have to move.
You're in favor of that, aren't you?
Dad, come back before the birch tree grows too tall.
Love, Jaeun.
What are you doing out here? When did you wake up?
Did you get some sleep?
You seemed to be tossing around until late.
Why did you get up so early? Did you sleep?
What's the point in sleeping?
It feels like a dream still. I can't believe it.
Jaeun said she will think about it.
She'll consider it.
That doesn't mean this pear field will belong to us.
Will we own this farm again?
How could you do this?
I loved this field so much. I didn't have to eat or sleep to be happy.
Since 10 years ago, I've loved this more than our own sons.
I worked so hard. I wore out my hands and feet.
How can that green, abundant field of mine no longer be mine?
Is this a dream? It's not real, is it?
Don't start again.
If you keep doing this, I want to die.
This field is so precious.
I gave this pear field all my love and devotion.
What can we do now? We have to accept reality.
It's time to accept it now.
Jaeun seemed quite positive last night.
I think she will decide to live here.
I mean it. I had a good dream.
Then we don't have to move. Isn't that great?
Mom!
What are you up to?
I was looking at the hospital website. I was searching for something.
What is it?
- Taesik! - Hey...
She's pretty.
I've never seen anyone that pretty in real life.
She's not kidding about being the national goddess.
She's the PR model for Hanguk University.
She came 1st in IBC's goddess Olympics recently.
"National Goddess" is her nickname. She's quite famous on the web.
Why not just hang up a placard in front of the farm?
"National goddess, Baek Jaeun! Milky skin, Baek Jaeun!"
I just want to watch from a distance.
Like the middle-aged male fans who watch Girls' Generation.
I don't believe this.
Whose fault is it that our family is in this mess?
Who knew the eldest son of the family would do this?
Even if a rose has thorns, it still is a rose.
Did you sleep well? You weren't uncomfortable?
It was a little hard because it's not a bed, but I slept well.
It was nice having such soft sheets.
I gave you the best set of sheets.
Drink this. I blended some carrots and apples.
Thank you.
Drink it. She makes great juice. Try it.
- What do you think? - It doesn't suit me...
Apples and carrots are too chunky if you put them in a mixer.
You should use a juice machine to squeeze all the juice out.
I've learnt something great from Jaeun today.
Would you like to know something else?
Carrots have ascorbic acid, which destroys vitamin C.
To mix it up with fruits is really terrible.
I'm learning so much from you.
Have you given some thought?
Yes, I have.
I don't want to live by myself immediately.
If I live with you, you don't have to move.
So I'll stay here for now.
Jaeun, thank you. You made the right choice.
Yes, of course she did.
We can find a house to move into if we really have to.
But think about being alone. You will be so gloomy and lonely.
But I have 2 favors to ask. Please listen to them for me.
What is it? Tell us.
Firstly, please pay my 2nd semester enrollment fees today.
- Today? - Today's the last day.
How much is it?
$4,795.
It's the last semester. You only need to pay once.
Does it cost $5,000 to enroll for a university course?
Mom, that's why people talk about half-price enrollment.
University enrollment fees are a hot social issue.
I don't know about that.
Jaeun, something this urgent puts us in a difficult position.
- Is it very difficult? - Yes, it's terribly difficult.
I'm sorry, but we can't help.
You will have to pay for this with your money.
I don't have any money. If I did, I would've paid already.
That's why I was going to sell the farm quickly.
And to find a studio apartment close to school.
I'm sorry to have told you so urgently.
But I thought you could do this for me.
I will be quite uncomfortable living here too.
It's hard to travel to and from school.
So you can't do it for me? Alright, then.
I didn't say that.
No, no, Jaeun. We'll pay it.
I'll take out a loan if I have to.
- Right, honey? - Of course.
Jaeun made a big decision. We have to do this for her.
Thank you. I thought I'd have to give up on this semester.
Thank you so much.
What's the 2nd favor?
Please pay for my living expenses and allowance while I'm here.
As I said, if I don't sell the farm, I don't have any money.
I will pay back my enrollment, living expenses and allowance later.
Is that difficult for you as well?
No, we're going to live together as family now. It's okay.
- Right, honey? - Of course.
How much do you usually spend on allowance and living expenses?
I don't know. I use a credit card, so I don't keep count.
Mr. Hwang, there are a lot of things that I need from today.
Shampoo, conditioner, shower bath, shower curtain, a gown. A lot!
Can I borrow your credit card to go shopping?
Can you change the internet connection to Wi-Fi?
I can only connect via Wi-Fi with my netbook.
I can't believe it. Maybe because she's not learned.
Is the news special supposed to be a re-run?
We're preparing an interview with his wife. Once we have permission...
It goes on air tomorrow! When will you get permission?
Can't you make sense of this situation?
We have a reserve item secured, don't worry.
Hwang Taebeom!
Answer it.
- What's the item? - This is Cha Suyeong.
Actor Gwon Uyeok's being investigated for conscription corruption.
It's top secret. I think there's a broker involved.
What? Really?
Thank you so much.
I will go to meet you right now.
Congressman Jin's wife will do the interview right away.
You mean it? Suyeong, you really are the best.
Great work!
We have to get the interview now. Prepare the camera and get ready.
Yes, mom.
Taesik called me. She's going to live with you?
- What? - Don't ask me any questions.
I will get so mad trying to explain it to you.
Thanks. I'll pay you next month when I withdraw my installment savings.
Transfer it to my account now.
I need cash right away.
Thanks. Do you know my account number?
Okay, transfer it now.
- Taehui will pitch in $1,000. - Taebeom too.
Can you put together $5,000 then?
We have $3,000 in our bank account. We can make it with the extra $2,000.
She's really something.
She's so cunning even though she smiles at us.
At least we don't have to move.
We can live here for now and run the orchard.
Didn't you hear her? She doesn't know how much she spends.
She can't spend that much. Don't think too negatively.
I get so mad thinking about it too, but what can we do?
We just have to cater to her needs and try to live.
Yes, she's totally right.
Plus, she is Inho's daughter. Take favor on her.
Congressman Jin told the media...
That you filed for divorce for a huge alimony sum.
Are you saying that's not true?
It's not true.
I just wanted to live the rest of my life like a real human.
Can you tell me in detail?
He met another woman just 1 year after we married.
Since then, we basically lived like a separated couple.
But I always acted happy, as he wanted.
It must have been hard on you.
Did your husband ever abuse you physically or verbally?
He did. He would abuse me verbally when he got drunk.
Can you tell us what he said?
That's...
Did he abuse you because you only graduated middle school?
I heard you failed your driver's license exam 19 times.
I heard he abused you about that. Is it true?
What are you doing? Stick to the questions.
Why did you stop the interview? It was going well.
Why would I stop it if it was going well?
You're attacking her.
Did you go through all that effort to ask such ordinary questions?
You should make use of this opportunity.
She would like to stop the interview.
What?
- Thank you. Mom! - Hana!
How was the camp? Let's take a look at you.
You're all burnt.
Didn't you wear sleeves?
You should wear long sleeves on the bus. You catch colds easily.
It's daggy. I don't want to.
Mom, didn't you put on any sunblock?
Let's go. Give me your bag.
It's all bills.
It's the same envelope.
Hwang Taesik? It's for that man.
Don't touch his mail. Put it back.
How is it that he gets the same mail as you?
It's from the alumni association.
He went to the same elementary school as me.
Let's go.
Really? You and him?
Does that mean you were the same age? Friends?
Were you close to him?
We were in the same class in 4th and 5th grades.
- Hello! - Hana!
Hello.
Did you go on a camp? Was it fun?
Your face is so black.
My mom and you... Elementary...
Keep walking.
I'll do what I want.
Hana, see you later.
Why cover the girl's mouth?
Mom, doesn't he recognize you?
I guess I've changed a lot.
You should tell him. Why don't you?
Because I'm not pretty. I've just grown old.
Women who recognize men first have no pride.
So don't tell him. It's a secret.
Okay, it hurts my pride too.
Mom, make sure you put on sunblock.
Throw out these daggy clothes.
Fine, let's go inside.
I made watermelon fruit salad. Let's go.
"I don't know. It's not true. Our school isn't like that."
He wouldn't even let me mention illicit admission.
Have you met all the judging professors from the practical exam?
Yes. I heard that Baek Jaeun hasn't applied for this semester.
Her house has been seized. They don't know where she is.
I called earlier, but she won't pick up the phone.
At current, she's vanished.
We may have to call her in and question her later.
What if she knew like her father and has run away?
I wonder how Baek Inho knew and changed his flight time.
- Professor Seo must've told him. - How would he know?
He could've predicted that we'd summon him as a testifier.
But how would he know the exact time and date?
There were only a few of us who knew about that.
That's true. Someone at the station must have tipped him off.
What is it? Where are we going?
Let's ask him straight out.
Who? Professor Seo?
Yes, we have nothing to lose.
Let's face him.
No way. He'll call the chief and complain.
- We'll be dead meat. - Just eat your bread.
I wasn't even very familiar with that man, Baek Inho.
I know nothing about the watch.
Stop pestering me like this.
I'm sorry.
Why would Baek Inho send you a watch then?
How should I know?
A courier was delivered to my house. My wife received it.
That's what we can't make sense of.
I was busy preparing an exhibition. I had no time to think about it.
I told my wife to return it.
Let's say that was the case at the time it was delivered.
But you couldn't have been busy for the last few years.
I told her to send it back, so I thought she had.
Baek Inho wouldn't send you a luxury brand watch for no reason.
Were you asked to inform him of the entrance exam material?
If you keep this up, I will sue you for defamation.
Do that.
I want the public to know.
I will ask you once more.
Did Baek Inho propose an illicit admission to you?
Get out of here. I'm not saying anything else.
I knew that police pestered people without evidence.
But I didn't know it was this bad.
Should I tell the media?
Baek Inho is back alive.
I wait for that news every day.
As you say, we don't have solid evidence yet.
- You seem quite shocked. - Get out of here!
- Should I call security? - We're sorry.
- We will leave now. - We'll see you next time.
We will return with solid evidence next time.
Yes, professor. Goodbye.
Let's go. Sorry.
We're leaving now.
Goodbye. Let's go.
Do you have several lives?
You're so uncooperative.
- Is he Professor Seo? - Yes.
- He's younger than I thought. - You don't know him?
He's the professor of Seungri's faculty.
I think I saw him at orientation, but I've never met him properly.
Why would he hide the fact that he knew him?
What? Who?
Nothing, let's go.
She's practically naked.
No, no. Don't be like this.
You said you'd accept her.
It's so hot here. The attic is so hot right now.
Surprise! Your husband gave me his card. I'm going to the supermarket.
He said he'd pay for my enrollment. He went to do it himself.
- Bye. - Okay, see you later.
- Yes. - Bye.
No, no...
The number you have dialed is currently unavailable.
Hello, it's Jaeun.
I have some good news. I have money now.
We can look for dad now, without worrying about money.
Can you look into a private search organization for me?
Please call me when you get this message.
Thank you.
The number you have dialed is not in the directory...
Where are you? I'm in the bathroom section downstairs.
Okay, park the car and come here.
Mom!
Mom...
Mom!
Are you crazy? Who's your mom?
Don't you know we're strangers now that your dad is dead?
We probably won't bump into each other again.
If we ever do, don't make it obvious that you know me.
Please.
Mom, I have something to tell you.
It's good news. You'll be so happy.
Let go. Don't follow me.
Mom!
Mom! Mom, listen to me.
Are you crazy? Don't call me that.
I'm not your mom!
Mom, once you hear me out, you'll change your mind.
You'll want to wait for dad with me.
Your dad's dead!
He's dead at sea.
Don't ever follow me again.
- Here. - Did you see?
How could I miss it? You were shouting.
I shouted on purpose so you could avoid her.
I'm dizzy. She's so rotten.
What are you doing?
Let go! Let go of me!
How could you do this? He works for my dad.
Mr. Kim, who would do whatever dad said.
This is so embarrassing.
If you want to cheat, at least choose a proper man!
What? What did you just say?
You're not even human.
You're the most shameless woman in the world.
Even if all you know is money and you're selfish.
Even if you treated me badly, cursed or hit me.
I could stand that, but not this.
You've betrayed my dad. I won't forgive you.
Fine, don't forgive me.
I never wanted your forgiveness, but don't forgive me.
Not even when you die, okay?
Are you crazy?
Baek Jaeun, are you crazy?
What are you doing? Stop!
Baek Jaeun, are you crazy? What's wrong with you?
Want to know something?
My mom, who gave birth to me, didn't even live 5 years with me.
She passed away when I was 2.
The first stepmom a year, the second, 6 months.
You're the only mother who lived with me for 5 years.
I didn't like you much, but I did like you at times.
You didn't say things to please me like the others.
You didn't act cowardly.
You even nagged me sometimes, like a real mom.
I even fooled myself at times...
That you must like me once in a while too.
My dad isn't the only person that you betrayed.
Let's never meet again...
Jeong Yunsuk.
Just take the grapes. I can take the rest.
- What is it? - Nothing.
What is it? Let me see.
Jaeun spent a lot.
$400...
Can I talk to you?
Don't act according to your feelings.
Let's talk.
We only have 1 day until we go on air.
Shouldn't we find a new item, shoot and edit it?
- Congressman Jin's wife... - Hey, Hwang Taebeom!
Do I look like a pushover to you?
You have a terrible personality and look horrible too.
But I was nice because you did your job.
Do you think you own the world now?
You're so low.
Hey! You should apologize first.
Why wait until I curse you?
If you speak like that, I won't hold back my words either.
Don't. Talk then.
You always say what you feel like. Go on, say something!
I'm sorry.
Is that what you want? Then I'll say it.
I'm sorry.
Sorry I wanted to get a lively, dynamic interview.
The questions you prepared were scratching the surface.
Sorry I asked a poignant question and the interview went wrong.
It's not easy to admit an error of judgment, is it?
I understand.
Blame everything on me and comfort yourself.
I work under you. I'm willing to sacrifice myself for you.
Shut your mouth.
She wouldn't have answered the way we wanted her to anyway.
Did we even get 3 or 4 proper replies from those 40 minutes?
- Did we even get 2 or 3 minutes? - Shut your mouth.
- Did you just throw this at me? - Yes, I did.
I haven't let anyone touch me since I started speaking at age 3.
Even my dad doesn't touch me.
How dare you hit me?
What did you just say?
You heard me. So what?
Come on, hit me. Throw something at me.
Let go! Let go of me!
Let go!
Hey! Let go!
You rotten fool!
Let go while I'm being nice.
- I'm not letting go. - Let go of me!
Let go! It hurts!
Let go! Let go of me!
- Cheers! - Bottoms up!
It tastes so sweet today, doesn't it?
I've had enough.
Come on, don't be like that.
There's a morning meeting. Don't worry about me.
Taebeom's drinking. Come on, one more.
- We're here to make peace. - Don't worry. Just drink.
Don't drink too much. You don't want to mess up again.
Mess up?
The interview was pointless. What was there to mess up?
All I had to do was read the lines like a parrot.
Is that what you wanted from me?
That's right. So why didn't you do it?
Stop it. We came all the way here.
That's why I'm saying this. Why did you come here?
They came to cheer you up. Why come here and be sour?
What? Am I wrong?
Drink it.
You too.
We don't know what she bought.
Maybe she had something she really had to buy.
She'll be home soon. Let's just wait.
Why would she need to spend that much at the supermarket?
You heard her say she'd buy shampoo and conditioner.
I heard it.
Want to lie down? Should I spread out the blankets?
As mother says, you're so clueless.
Do you think I'm in the mood to sleep?
I've never even spent that much buying clothes my entire life.
I've never spent that much on a credit card.
How dare she come here and spend that at the supermarket?
- Do you know how I feel right now? - How?
I want to grind you into powder.
I'm home.
Bokja, you can grind me to powder, but not Jaeun.
We have a lot at stake.
It's late. Did you have dinner?
No, I don't feel like it. I'm going to my room.
Jaeun, come here for a minute.
- Why? - What is it? Just speak here.
Okay, then sit down.
What is it?
You spent quite a lot at the supermarket today.
Did I?
- How much? - Don't worry, mom.
Tell me how much you spent.
I'm not sure. I wasn't paying attention.
Looks like I spent a bit.
What? Not $40? $400?
Is that just a bit to you?
To me, it is. It's the same as a pair of shoes.
But I understand. I will try to spend less next time.
Today was an exception, okay?
- I'm going upstairs. - Where are the things you bought?
If you spent that much, where are the goods?
They were all ruined, so I couldn't use them anyway.
- What? - Jaeun! What did you buy?
It's a long story, so I don't want to go into it.
Please just let it go.
Goodness... Is she sane?
Maybe she drank pesticide.
Are you crazy? Why would I drink pesticide?
Why is it such a big deal?
I told you I will pay it all back.
Make a list and write it down.
Once I sell this farm, I won't miss a cent.
I'll pay you with interest! I'm going upstairs.
Goodness.
Graduating from middle school or dropping out...
Whether she listened to classic or trot when she was abused.
Stimulating questions like that?
Bingo! That's what the nation wants to know.
It's our duty to inform them. They have the right to know.
That's the right to know? It's not just because it's fun?
We're not the ones to judge.
Sorry. We just report the facts.
No, it's stimulating.
You just want to get a scoop.
You want to become IBC's big star as soon as you can.
Don't act so good, Cha Suyeong. I bet you think the same way.
- You? Cha Suyeong? - Yes.
Let's forget about who's above who for today.
You're a year younger than me too.
Wait, my birthday's early. That's 2 years...
We're journalists.
We don't chase gossip. We're not paparazzi.
We're not out to become stars. We're journalists.
Do you know why I let you do that interview which I struggled to get?
That surprised me too. That interview was a real scoop.
You're better at it than me.
You have a lot more appeal than me as a news journalist.
A good written style, a deep voice.
You're visually appealing. You're a good actor too.
You're really convincing. You're really good.
- So you do know that. - That's why I let you do it.
I didn't want to be a jealous senior.
You don't need to use tricks or overdo it.
You can be a good journalist.
A power brand? You can do that too.
So interviews like today... Her pain and hurt feelings.
Don't pry and overdo it.
Viewers will judge if it's their right to know or just fun?
No, history will judge that.
What kind of journalist do you want to remain in history as?
Are you crazy? What are you doing?
How can you do that with a toothbrush that goes in one's mouth?
Don't overreact. I only did it 3 times.
Today was my 4th time and you caught me.
At least I didn't brush the sides of the toilet basin.
My friend's husband cheated and she wiped the toilet basin with it.
Another friend put cat's fur into her husband's soup.
- How can you say that? - Stop shouting at me!
It's echoing in here because it's the bathroom.
If I knew it would be like this, I should've cheated properly.
If I had known I would receive such inhumane treatment.
I should've held her hand and kissed her.
How can you say that?
I only met her 4 times.
It was for work too. I met for a few hours, talking about work.
I never even talked about anything personal.
Why would she send you such a hot e-mail then?
That was her, not me.
Why do I have to be responsible for her feelings?
It's because you gave her room to act that way.
Why would she do that alone?
Do you hate me that much?
Do you hate me so much that you want to kill me?
Don't overreact.
Brushing your teeth with that won't kill you.
Why are you looking at me that way?
Where's Nam Yeogyeong?
Where is the woman that I loved with all my life?
Where is that elegant and beautiful Nam Yeogyeong?
Look in the mirror. Look who stands there.
Look at how hideous you've become!
Who made me this way?
Why do you think I ended up like this?
