Cutie Pie
Episode 63
Dr. Lee, do you have some free time the day after tomorrow?
Why?
If you have some free time, could you meet my dad?
Excuse me?
Why would I meet your dad?
He asked me to recommend a doctor, so I told him about you.
What?
Just meet with him one time, without any obligation.
What is it about?
My dad's company, Da Joo Ri, has plans to expand the business.
Da Joo Ri Company? That's a really famous company.
He said it won't take long, so please meet with him.
No, I'm sure she has something else up her sleeves.
Don't fall for it.
I don't feel comfortable with that. I'm sorry.
Dr. Lee.
Please meet with him.
You don't have to feel burdened by it.
I really don't have time to meet with him.
Mom. How do I look?
You look pretty. You look perfect.
Do I really need to go to your friend's daughter's wedding?
It's at the Hyo Sung Hotel.
I wanted you to enjoy the expensive food there.
Madam Song, I'm hungry. Feed me.
Why didn't you get up earlier?
There's no rice. Make yourself a ramen.
Are you two going somewhere?
We're going to a hotel...
We're going to the supermarket.
You don't look dressed to be going to the supermarket.
We could run into people we know.
Really? I'll go with you. I'll get something to eat there.
It's so hot out there. You just stay home.
Really? Then when you come back, bring me back 5 chicken skewers.
The ones that are grilled! Don't forget.
Mom, let's take her with us. She can really eat.
Let's get our money's worth.
Look at the way she looks.
How can I take her with me?
When these women get together, all they do is try to find faults.
They won't have anything good to say about her.
What? Manager Jung's father is the president of Da Joo Ri Company?
Yes. She's the precious only child.
My goodness. She's the daughter of such a great family.
Manager Jung likes you that much?
She won't back off.
And now she's using some ridiculous excuse to get me to meet her dad.
How do you feel about her? Do you like Manager Jung?
No.
But I can't lie and say I'm not tempted.
Because of her family's money?
In all honesty, if I marry her, I won't have to worry about money anymore.
I don't have to worry about my siblings' tuition or loan payments.
If I close my eyes just once...
It's not just once.
You'll have to live the rest of your life with your eyes closed.
You're probably right.
Dr. Lee, you can't allow yourself to become a slave of money.
Look at me.
I have to be responsible for a family also.
I'm the only one who earns money.
But I chose love.
In life, how and where you live is not important.
What's more important is who the person is that's beside you.
I'm so embarrassed. I can't hold my head up.
I don't know why I had such awful thoughts.
It's okay, Dr. Lee.
That's how you learn the lessons in life.
Yes, what I need is true love.
But Da Joo Ri is kind of hard to give up.
Da Joo Ri...
I'm hungry.
Why is it taking them so long to come back from the supermarket?
Unni, you're so cute. You look like a Chihuahua with heat stroke.
What?
I'm so hungry. I don't have the energy to get mad.
Oh! Is that you, Madam Song?
Madam Song, my chicken skewers!
Where are the chicken skewers?
Oh, no. I forgot about them.
I should have just made myself a ramen.
Wait. I'll make it for you after I change.
Why are the two of you empty-handed?
What?
You went to the supermarket. You didn't buy anything?
You're back early from the wedding.
What does she mean by a wedding?
You didn't know?
I heard from Auntie earlier.
Grandmother, I heard Hyo Sung Hotel is really grand.
You should have taken me along.
What is this? You left me out again to go somewhere?
No, that's just...
Mom, I'm going upstairs.
Why can't you talk?
That's not it.
What do you mean it's not?
You excluded me because you're ashamed of me.
You promised you won't do that again, so why did you?
You're the one who got up late. It would have taken too long for you to get ready and...
Forget it!
Do I embarrass you that much?
From now on, why don't you tell people you only have 2 daughters and not 3?
I quit being your daughter! I'm not going to be your daughter anymore!
Hey! Yeo Jin!
Yeo Jin!
Oh, really...
What's wrong?
Ji Won.
What happened?
You know that money that I tried so hard to work on, even using the credit card for it?
I may not be able to do it.
Why not? Weren't you cast as a supporting actor in it?
The company who's investing in it wants to use someone else.
Who is that company?
Da Joo Ri Company. They're investing 100% in this movie.
Da Joo Ri Company?
The company owned by Manager Jung's father?
This drives me crazy.
I charged a lot on your credit card.
I'm ashamed to face you.
I'm sorry.
Im Yeo Jin, are you sleeping?
I went and got some chicken skewers you wanted so much.
Get up.
Wow, they look so yummy.
Wow.
You're really not going to eat it?
Forget it then!
It's your loss if you don't eat it, not mine.
Oppa, try some of this bulgogi.
Quit picking at your food and eat up.
It's okay. I'm no better than the puppy next door. How can I eat this?
I don't deserve to eat.
Oppa.
I'm not eating either.
How does the daughter who's too embarrassing to take to a wedding deserve to eat?
Hey, Im Yeo Jin!
Yeo Jin!
Why is she refusing to eat something so yummy!
You don't deserve to eat this either.
Just eat those veggies.
How did I end up with diabetes, of all things?
I'm going to school.
I'm going.
Okay. See you later.
I know why Oppa is acting like that but what's the reason for Yeo Jin?
Did you say something to her again?
What?
She's acting like that over nothing.
Why do you keep criticizing people?
With Yeo Jin like that, the atmosphere here is unbearable.
What? Is it my fault she didn't turn out so great?
Mom, please!
Manager Jung is the daughter of the president of Da Joo Ri.
Yes?
Director.
You're here?
Why are you suddenly doing that?
No reason.
Lee Tae Sung's appointment is in 30 minutes.
And Kim Jun Pyo has a high-frequency treatment scheduled.
Thank you.
Manager Jung!
Yes?
Hurry up and tell her.
Hurry up and ask her to help out Oppa.
Manager Jung, I...
Yes?
Nothing. You may leave.
What should I do?
Oppa's future is on the line here.
This isn't the time to hang on to my pride.
Manager, please stop.
I already told you I don't feel comfortable with it.
Dr. Lee, there's nothing for you to feel burdened over.
Please make some time for him.
My dad said there was something he needed to ask you.
I have plans.
It won't take but a minute.
Am I being too harsh?
Should I have allowed a bit of opening?
If I had known, I would have treated Manager Jung better.
[Madam Song]
Who is calling that you're ignoring their call?
The way they keep calling back, it seems to be important.
Why is she calling now? She never called before.
Oh dear! Professor!
How have you been?
Hello. Have you been well?
Why is she here?
You've gotten much better looking since the last time I saw you.
Thank you.
How is it?
Has spending so much time with Yeo Jin brought you closer together?
No... uh...
Mom!
Why do you keep bothering the Professor?
He's a busy man. Let him go.
Professor, please be on your way.
Yes.
Why do you keep doing that to the Professor?
And aren't I the daughter you threw away?
Why are you bothering him?
I'll just marry whoever I end up with.
Are you still upset with me?
What do you care?
Let's leave.
It's been a long time since we've been out together.
Okay?
I'm getting a little hungry.
[Da Joo Ri Choco Pie]
Da Joo Ri?
I heard they sell 10,000,000 of these every year.
If the profit is 100 won, how much is that?
Wow. Wow.
Hey, why don't you hold this?
Does this aging mother have to hold the parasol up for her daughter?
Oh bother.
What's up with you?
You were so embarrassed to be seen with me before.
There's a women's gathering the day after tomorrow.
Do you want to go with me?
And you can go with me to my reunion next month.
It's fine.
I resigned from being your daughter.
Don't concern yourself with me, Ahjumma.
This girl, being so uptight.
Don't be like that. Let's go shopping.
Shopping for what?
I want to buy you an outfit.
You don't want it? Forget it if you don't want to.
An outfit? You're really going to buy me clothes?
Are those rumors true, by any chance?
I heard that your father is the president of Da Joo Ri.
Yes, that's true. How did you hear that?
Oh, so it is true.
My husband's work has something to do with Da Joo Ri.
Oh, is that so?
Why didn't you tell me this before?
My dad could help him.
My dad will do whatever I ask him.
I see.
Then could I ask you for a favor?
A favor?
Not for free.
Whatever Manager Jung...
I mean I could do something for you, in return.
You're going to buy me something from here?
They're not cheap here.
You're really going to buy it for me?
I've set my mind to it so let's do it right.
Mom.
What's this? I thought I was an ahjumma.
Didn't you resign as my daughter?
I don't have anywhere else to go. I came back.
Mom, continue to not take me to weddings.
And every time you don't, you can buy me an outfit.
Forget it. I'll just take you with me.
This is a nice color. Looks like it will be cool.
Do you want me to buy this for you?
No, I want to look some more.
What do you think about this?
Doesn't it look good on me?
We're here to buy something for me.
Oh! Mom, what do you think about this?
These pants make the bottoms look very attractive.
That won't look good on you.
Look for something else.
Get this one. This one! What do you think?
While you're at it, buy me something expensive.
How's this one?
This one.
Not this one. I can't afford it with the money your sister...
What? Unni gave you the money?
No. It's just that...
She asked you to so you had no choice but to come do this.
I wondered what was up. Forget it, Madam Song!
Why would you buy clothes for the daughter you threw away?
That's how you treated me from the time I was little.
I only got to wear hand-me-downs while you bought Ba Ni all the new clothes.
This new behavior is awkward to witness.
Why are you bringing up the past?
It's precious money from the daughter you love so much.
You shouldn't use it so frivolously.
Go ahead and buy the shirt you picked out.
It looks great on you.
Yeo Jin!
Oh, dear...
Dr. Lee, it's Director Im.
Will you meet me at 7 p. m. at the cafe we went to before? Just for a minute.
I need to talk to you about something...
She's usually so prompt. Why is she late tonight?
They're probably there by now.
Was it wrong for me to do that?
Ji Won!
Oppa, why are you here?
Don't be too alarmed.
You know Director Kim Jong Shik?
That director said he wants to work with me.
What?
I don't have to worry about Da Joo Ri Company anymore.
I'm going to forget about that movie and give my all for this one.
You watch and see.
I'll become a great success and show everyone.
I hope Da Joo Ri goes bankrupt!
Oh no...
Dr. Lee!
No! No!
Ji Won!
Manager Jung.
Dad.
These are those pants you liked.
It's fine.
Take it back.
I don't look right in these expensive clothes.
Just wear them.
I added 100,000 won to the money your sister gave me to buy it.
You wasted your money.
I'm comfortable with you.
Ji Won makes me feel slightly intimidated.
I can't communicate that well with Ba Ni.
So you're the one I feel the most comfortable with.
And that's the reason why I sometimes treat you carelessly.
Do you think that's how I truly feel in my heart?
They say there's not a finger out of the 10 that won't hurt when you bite it.
It's not like I have 10 fingers but just 3.
It's fine.
You know you don't have to console me.
One day is all it takes for me to get over things.
Just leave me alone.
I'll be back to my old self by tomorrow.
With Ji Won turning out like that and the way Ba Ni lives,
it's pretty obvious the kind of man she's going to bring home.
In all honesty, you're the one I'm placing my hope on.
And that's why I keep on Professor Lee like I do.
Professor Lee and I... that's just absurd.
What are you talking about?
Truthfully, Professor Lee isn't good enough for you.
I keep seeing him so I just poke at him.
In all honesty, you're going to end up marrying someone really great...
...and take care of me like no one else.
Fine. There's no reason I can't.
My hope is in you.
You make people around you feel good.
That's true. I do brighten up people's moods.
Should we have a beer together and lift our moods?
I'll go and get some beer from the fridge.
There aren't any in the fridge. I'll go buy some.
You'll do that?
Oh, thank you. My 2nd daughter is the best!
While you go get the beer, I'll get some appetizers ready.
You will?
I heard much about you through Joo Ri.
Yes.
Dr. Lee, don't take this too seriously.
We're here because of a favor my dad needs.
Don't worry and hear him out.
Okay.
What's going on here?
Why isn't the Director here yet?
I heard you're a doctor who treats obesity.
That is correct.
Our company owns several hospitals.
Have you heard of Da Joo Ri Hospital?
Da Joo Ri?
Of course I've heard of it.
I wanted to find a doctor that I can trust for it.
Someone who can eventually head it.
A hospital?
I feel that if it's someone Joo Ri trusts, that will be good enough for me.
Dad.
Why? Aren't you interested?
No, it's not that...
Excuse me. I need to use the restroom.
Hurry back.
Da Joo Ri. (*Sounds like, I'll give you all)
Da Joo Ri.
Fine. Give all of it to me.
Da Joo Ri Hospital... I will take it all.
Dr. Lee!
Director.
What happened?
It... It's a long story.
Let's get out of here first.
Get out of here?
Let's get out of here. I was wrong.
I did something terrible to you.
I'll take care of it but for now, let's leave.
Da Joo Ri.
Dr. Lee, what are you doing?
I'm coming.
Dr. Lee!
I'm coming. I'm coming.
Dad, it was really good.
I'm coming.
Da Joo Ri.
Mom, something awful almost happened to me.
Some strange man was chasing me.
I thought I was going to die from being so scared.
Who would chase my precious daughter?
Let's see. I'll go right out there and...
No! No, I'm fine.
Let's call the police and report him.
Why would we report this to the police?
It could be someone who likes you.
Let's go out there and find out what kind of man he is.
These kinds of chances don't come too often.
What if you let him slip though your fingers?
Mom!
You're going to be a teacher for the day at Yoo Na's school?
If you come to my school, I'm going to quit school and run away from home.
Let's break up.
That girl.
Why can't I like Young Kwang?
She likes her younger sister's friend?
Yeo Jin...
Manager!
