[Episode 35]
Did you sleep well?
Hm.
Ice water.
You reek.
Yaya?
She left early.
You're taping today?
Yes.
You think you'd behave, first day and all.
I'll be fine.
'Mom says come in.'
Here.
A pick-me-up. If she gets tired.
Thanks.
Another thing.
Our help has left.
Salt water. Ginger tea.
Mix-n-match, if her mouth is dry.
M'am.
Go on.
Wait, wait.
I'm full.
You hardly ate.
Here.
Milk?
No, thank you.
I'm told Nadan dozed off.
Wake him next time. Time is money.
M'am.
Send me a photo when she's out of makeup.
M'am.
Did Nadan say anything?
No.
He doesn't care about me.
Of course he does. He'll text you.
She couldn't get much sleep last night.
Let her sleep in the car.
M'am.
The key.
You can relax. It's nothing.
Easy to say.
My baby is tough.
Don't worry about the camera.
Think of it as chatting with the MC.
Hm.
Fighting.
I'll be fine.
Drive safely.
M'am.
What?
You're grinning? With your son dead?
You're inhuman. Grinning, preaching!
'Fighting?' And me? You know who I am?
Yes?
Well...
I saw you at the Jang's house.
For the portrait?
Yes.
Where were you? I didn't see you.
The kitchen. Then Nana's room when you went out.
Oh, I see.
Is that all?
Not to worry. I'll look after Jia.
Hm.
Is she right in the head?
I feel nothing for you.
Hello.
No problems?
We're ready to shoot.
Director.
Yes.
Check the audio. The last time, well...
I understand.
Thanks.
Sir.
Have you eaten?
A sandwich.
There's a good place nearby.
Coffee?
I've had mine.
Text Jia.
Wish her well. She thinks you don't care.
Okay.
And to Misol.
Go on.
Invite her to a movie tonight or the weekend.
I'm meeting a client today.
I found her to be quite reserved.
It's better when things move slowly.
Women like that.
Except when they don't, like you and Dad.
It all depends.
Better that she's pliable and easy to control.
Well?
'OK.'
Set it up. Ask her what time.
Have some fruit.
Persimmons?
I'll get some.
I like 'em soft. He likes 'em crisp.
You always get what he likes.
Nag-nag-nag.
Nuh-uh, it's true.
You're always stewing on something, you know that?
I should be happy she favors you?
Give her every little thing.
Count your blessings.
Yaya doesn't have any parents to buy her fruit.
Don't favor me.
Soft one time, crisp the next.
Love us both equally.
I do. Both the same.
It's not like you've never had your favorite.
You get your way.
Buy them yourself.
Not with your hands.
I just washed them.
Then change your clothes.
They're filthy.
You would know.
I did a search.
Mona Lisa has never married.
But she's 40.
40?
Hm.
Why didn't she marry?
Why didn't he?
It's perfect.
Take her out sometime.
This show will change things.
You're moving up.
Anything I can do?
With what?
Home cooking.
Well?
You're adorable.
Oh.
For my mom.
Right.
1, 2, 3.
Mr. Jo mentioned Hongcheon.
The maple forest?
Hm.
Let's go.
It's best to go before Autumn is over.
Seoul has nothing like it.
Hm.
What's your opinion of Nadan?
His kind of guy isn't my type.
But girls seem to like him.
He's very cool.
Cool isn't hot.
I like my men to be men.
Bad boys?
Not that so much as not wimpy.
Like Hwaom.
Tough.
Nadan went out with the Migang Group girl.
They're perfect in every way.
Speak of the devil.
Hm.
Where are you?
On the road.
Nervous?
Never mind.
What's a good place in Hongcheon?
Ask Yaya. She's the expert.
Uh-huh.
He says you're the expert.
Hm.
All the restaurant blogs are fakes, you know?
It's all rigged.
Uh-huh.
Not that I could eat a bite now.
Maybe after?
I hear the crew goes out after the first show.
Did Mr. Jang say anything?
I left early.
Shall I ask?
No. Way too obvious.
Hello.
Shall we?
Here.
Want a tour?
Later.
Of course. Have a seat.
My mouth is dry.
I'm getting nervous.
Ginger tea?
Hm.
Should I offer some? To the staff.
There's too many.
Especially for Hwaom.
Hello.
Ginger tea?
I like it cold.
The cue sheet and script.
Take it easy.
Easy to say.
You stumbled in at dawn?
No. 1am or so.
Did you sleep well?
Hm.
You going out after?
First show. Have to.
I'm hungry. I hardly ate.
We'll eat at noon.
Han.
Sir.
Check the wireless and the boom mike.
Sir.
Hey.
Yaya's here.
Hm.
I've got plans for lunch.
Mm.
We should go watch them film.
We'll be in the way.
Muom says we can sit in the audience.
They won't know.
You and your friends should go.
With you.
If this new show is a hit.
To show support.
It will be.
Of course it will.
What's it called?
Green Grapes.
Green Grapes?
These shows today. Goose Egg. Water Kimchi. Toe Talk.
Easy to remember.
And fun.
Green Grapes.
Grapes today, m'am?
So funny.
I'll be so nervous.
You'll be fine.
Time to eat.
You don't go out?
No.
Hwaom must be busy.
Yes. A lot to check.
Now we're talking.
They call this food.
As if.
I haven't seen him.
Right.
I didn't bring my toothbrush.
I'll buy one.
With toothpaste.
Hm.
Ah. And floss.
Mm.
And mouthwash.
This has vinegar in it.
You? You have yours?
Mm.
If I had known I'd have asked Mom to make rice rolls.
She's very busy.
Even so, she'd do it for me.
'I'm making rice rolls for Sonji and thought of u.'
M'am. Hello.
Hey.
Doing okay?
You look all in.
They keep me running.
Oh?
I'm following your lead today.
I feel like you're on every show I watch.
Why work so hard?
I spend a lot.
You're my role model.
When I was your age, I was frozen.
I'm more starving than frozen.
Just don't gamble.
People act the fool once they make it big.
Don't go there.
Right. But I have to make it big first.
Or even medium.
Was the soup all right?
Perfect.
Break a leg today.
Of course.
I'll be up later.
Right.
Where were you?
Buying this. For Jia.
Seriously? She can skip it one time.
She's filming.
What a pain.
I'm her road manager.
You don't look it.
Let's grab coffee. And tour my office.
Jia's waiting. Later.
What's left?
Dessert.
Anything else?
No.
Coffee?
M'am.
We should do this once a week.
It's nice.
Today is special.
At least it is for me.
Okay. Twice a week.
With the kids. Jia will love this place.
Especially the meat.
When do they film?
This afternoon.
From earlier. Out of makeup.
Very nice.
Mom.
What are you doing?
Brushing up. Lip gloss.
What did you eat?
We ate here.
Delivered?
Catered.
With Mr. Jang?
No. The crew.
We're going out after to celebrate?
Uh-huh.
Should I take the meds?
Try it without.
You haven't met our MCs?
No.
Now's the time.
Hello.
Our first performer.
Jo Jia.
Hello. Call me Georgia.
Hey. She's pretty, isn't she?
A real beauty.
Shall we go over the script?
Of course.
Good coffee.
Hm.
I'm worried about the time.
They can get along without you.
I suppose.
If Jia marries into the Daehae Group and Nadan into the Migang Group...
...what will we do?
You have any plans?
What we swore to do.
A world cruise?
Uh-huh.
Just the thought.
We've earned it, haven't we?
You certainly have.
Every single day.
Not really. I've been happy. Still am.
I pity single people.
They don't know what really matters in life.
We've been blessed.
Let me ask you something.
Hm.
Tell me the truth.
Would you want to meet me again in the next life?
No answer? No?
You?
I asked first.
Definitely yes. Just you.
And no one else.
Me, you, too.
You know any single doctors? In their forties.
For a friend?
A curator friend of mine.
If he's divorced?
As long as he's single.
And a good man.
Where his first wife is at fault.
It happens. I'll find out.
I have lots of divorced friends.
Shall we?
Keep an eye on my look.
Hm.
Hello.
Come in.
First show.
Yep.
Here we go.
That we do.
Break a leg.
We have high hopes.
Thanks for dropping in.
You surprise us.
Break a leg. You too.
We're starting. Get ready.
Here they are.
Hello, I'm Yun Yongmi. Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3.
Fighting.
Hello, this is Green Grapes coming to you every Tuesday.
Good evening, I'm Jon Jihu.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you.
Well? We're ready to go.
Shall we?
Let's go.
We're all set here.
Ready when you are.
Right.
Ready to roll film.
Stand by.
Here we go.
Stand by.
Cue.
Applause.
Coming to you every Tuesday, it's Green Grapes.
Hello, I'm your announcer Yun Yongmi.
And Jon Jihu.
Jihu, do you like fruit?
Who doesn't?
True.
What's your favorite fruit?
They called me The Grape Ghost as a kid.
Oh? But there are so many types.
Wine grapes, wild grapes, sour grapes.
Campbell, green...
Green grapes?
That's the name of our show.
Why green grapes exactly?
What's that call to mind?
Hmmm... Fresh?
Now I'm drooling.
Why?
So sour.
My grandmother hates sour things as well.
So that's how it is?
I'm talking to the crew. I need another MC.
No, I can't wait to work with you.
Truly?
Yes. I'm truly a joker.
Keeping it light.
Always.
The life of grapes, the bitter and the sweet.
All here on Green Grapes.
A little tighter.
Camera Three.
Our first guest is an ordinary person.
Yes.
Shall we bring her in or shall you introduce her?
Why am I so nervous?
You sweet on her?
No.
Today's guest...
Here she comes. All cameras on Georgia.
Please.
Could you introduce yourself?
Hello. I'm Georgia.
Jo Jia?
Yes.
Jon Jihu.
Huh?
Look at me. I'm over here.
You're drifting off.
Why are you blushing?
I am not.
No? Isn't he?
Yep!
See?
Never mind.
So, Georgia...
Stand by.
Cut.
No, I graduated. Graduate school is next.
Oh? And your family?
Mom, Dad, a brother and me.
Jihu, you have a knack for reading people.
Yes.
What do you see?
I would say I'm pure and good.
Who told you that?
Oops. Forget I said anything.
Now our guest Georgia, what do you think?
A feeling of love...
Lovely?
Yes.
And what are you full of?
Me?
Machismo?
I can't win today.
You find me interesting?
Sure. Younger guys are in.
Is Jihu right about you?
I may have been wrong.
More happiness than love.
Are you happy?
Yes.
Any special reason?
Or just a general attitude toward life?
Because I know love.
In your family?
Yes.
The poet So Chong-ju wrote that the wind reared him, for 8 parts in 10.
What reared me for 8 parts in 10 was love.
That's what I hope we can talk about.
Lovely, well-spoken.
A natural.
[Subtitles provided by MBC Translated by D. Bannon]
Does one buy undernothings?
Undernothings?
You know, to boost things up a bit.
Ah.
Hello.
A gift?
There. The set.
Sir.
Good show.
I hope I don't have to be too honest.
Just candid.
But nothing sensitive, I hope.
Not especially.
