[Episode 95]
I love hairtail fish.
It's delicious. Just perfect...
I feel so much better now. It's perfect.
I can't believe I'm having breakfast made by my daughter-in-law.
Thanks, Yaya.
Are you going to the wedding today?
I don't think I need to go.
I'm going to be staying home. Why don't you go?
Okay.
It'll be nice if you get to meet Writer Jung today.
What does he look like?
You'll be shocked.
I don't know how he goes around looking like that.
Most guys dress up nicely these days.
A writer should just write well.
You think he's good at what he does?
Yes.
Be nice to him, then.
Make sure to be very polite and respectful.
Sometimes, you need to wear masks to be successful.
I haven't seen anyone who reveals their true feelings ending up being successful.
Okay.
Make sure you help her, Yaya.
I will, Mother.
I should give you a piece of jewelry.
Good idea.
You already gave me wedding gifts.
That's that, but I want to show you my appreciation.
When you care for another person,
you can't help but want to give more and more.
Is that right?
If Nadan were alive,
and ate this good meal she prepared
how happy would he be.
My poor son...
I'm so heartbroken...
Hyogyong!
Junso?
I like girls wearing bracelets.
Try this.
It looks lovely on you.
You should wear it today.
It goes well with your outfit.
Okay, thank you.
I'll wear it well.
Good.
Let's go.
What if he's late again today?
He's never on time?
Yes.
What kind of writer is he?
He can't do anything when there's traffic due to an accident.
Whatever.
We didn't see the accident, so how can we believe him?
Seeing that Hwaom picked him as a writer, I'm sure he's competent.
I bet he picked him because he's his high school friend.
Producing a drama isn't that simple. It's very costly to make.
You read the planning report.
The story was unique and fun.
Hwaom doesn't mix business with pleasure.
And he's more objective towards his work.
I saw an actor on TV who went fishing with his writer...
Even with white dress pants on, he jumped into the water.
Why?
Because the writer was about to lose the only fish he caught.
Do I have to kiss up to the writer that much?
There's nothing easy in life.
How can he not listen to Hwaom?
I mean, he's just a no-name writer, while Hwaom is the son of Daehae Group.
That proves that he has very high self-esteem.
I think it's more like an inferiority complex.
Inferior person with a bad character.
Hello.
Are you here alone?
No, Yaya is downstairs.
Hwaom is running a bit late.
Do you want some coffee?
No.
This is the money you paid me for my stockings.
Why? You already accepted it.
I was just going through some tough times.
My brother passed away suddenly...
Please forgive me for the way I behaved that day.
Sure.
You don't think I'm right for the role?
A bit. But it's not like you're completely off.
I'll do my best to improve myself.
Trying isn't going to help.
So what are you planning on doing?
I'll look for a new person for the role.
And if you can't find a better person, you'll just cast me?
I'll worry about that then.
Whatever it may be... even for casting,
if I only put in half the effort, I'll only get average results.
I always want to do my best with everything.
Isn't casting up to the production team? With the director?
Only writers can know if the casting is done properly.
Story, character and specific episodes...
Everything is in the writer's head, not in the producer's or director's head.
Why do you think I'm not right for the role?
Your profile says you were born in 1990.
That's right.
Well, I was born in 1985.
So what?
Didn't you go to elementary school?
What are you trying to say?
When you talk to someone older than you,
you should speak with some respect.
Is there anything more you want to say?
Fine. Find an actress that matches 100% your character.
I will.
Hello?
What's wrong with him?
What happened?
He told me straight up that I wasn't right for the role.
This is so humiliating.
What kind of cruel writer is he?
Jia must be really upset.
You heard?
A bit.
Did he go to the restroom?
Yes.
Jia went home. She says she had a headache.
Tell her not to worry.
She's really upset.
He must be really harsh and cruel.
Are you talking about me?
Yes. She left early. She had a headache thanks to you.
She gets a headache over something this minor?
It's not so minor for someone on the receiving end.
She has to accept it.
She can't expect to only hear good things.
What's right is right, and what's wrong is wrong.
Sorry, let's eat together some other time. I have to go.
Why?
My sister is here to see me.
Okay.
I'm hungry. Let's just go.
Didn't you make the reservation for four people?
I go there all the time, they'll understand.
Mano?
That's not the only place we're regulars at...
Yes, Mano.
Why was he being so harsh? She must be hurt.
I told him, but he doesn't see the need to sugarcoat.
He thinks it's better to be honest.
He says sugarcoating doesn't change the underlying meanings.
He's like that.
He's never been in a relationship, has he?
He dated someone before.
Was it casual?
They talked about getting married.
There are girls who like guys like him.
Girls falling for bad boy types, I bet.
Is his blood type B?
I don't know.
I thought you guys were close.
I never asked.
But I do know your blood type... blood type O.
How come he broke off the engagement?
His girlfriend's family...
They wanted him to stop studying for the bar exam, and work for their company,
but he refused.
He took the bar exam?
Yes. He was a lawyer for a year at Soosung Law Office.
I see what type of person he is.
He's full of pride and he's stubborn. He looks down on women, too.
He hurts people once in a while but he doesn't realize it.
It's true to some extent, expect one thing.
He doesn't have an inferiority complex. He's just very honest.
Sure, since he's your friend...
No, it's not like that. You'll see it once you spend more time with him.
You make him sound like a pretty decent person...
Is he from the countryside?
No. His sister married someone from Daegu.
I'm going to try to convince him,
so tell Jia Jo not to feel so bad.
It's worse than that. She's really hurt.
Tell her to keep taking acting classes.
When an actress can act, that triumphs anything else.
She already told him she's not taking the role,
and to find someone who matches the character 100%.
And he said yes to that.
You can just call her by her first name, Jia.
Yet you always call her Jia Jo.
I'm not that close to her. I don't feel comfortable calling her Jia.
You and Writer Jung are similar in some ways.
You always build these invisible walls.
It's better than spilling your feelings around.
You know I don't like spilling things.
Even my emotions...
When do you start auditioning?
When we find the assistant producer.
Should I just let Lee Bansuk do it?
He wanted to work on dramas.
He's good at what he does.
Yes.
Did Nadan buy you that bracelet?
No, Mother gave it to me today.
I guess she likes you now.
I guess god is fair to everyone.
If you lack in one thing, god gives you another thing.
If you lack in something else, then god fills that space, too.
Even though you don't have a family, you have people who care about you.
What did you like the most about Nadan?
His character.
How about my character?
It's not as impressive?
On the contrary, it's too impeccable. That's why I let you go.
Was there anything bad about him?
Nothing at all?
He can't sing. Just like you.
It's not that I can't sing, I just don't.
Is that right?
I sing when I take baths and I sound pretty good.
Gosh, everyone sounds good in bathrooms.
I guess you sing in the bathroom, too?
Come in.
Why are you home already?
You came to get changed?
It didn't work out?
He said I'm lacking for the role.
Even after you apologized?
That didn't work.
He humiliated me.
What did he say?
He says he'll look for a perfectly-matching actress.
Does he look well-off?
Since he's Hwaom's friend, he must be pretty decent.
No way. He looks shabby from head to toe.
He might look that way since he's a writer.
You can't fool love, coughing, and poverty.
Does he want something from you, then?
Tell him I'll treat him out.
I can treat something nice to him.
He didn't even accept $20 for the stockings.
Why did you offer to pay him back?
That's just petty cash...
Of course he's not going to accept the money.
That's probably why he was so mean to you.
What's his phone number?
I don't have it.
Get his phone number from Hwaom.
Tell him that I'll buy him a nice meal.
He might like that.
What if he doesn't?
You're just too naive.
No one would turn down money.
If you can find someone like that, I'll pay you a million dollars.
He's so superficial!
No he's not. It's only natural.
Everyone needs money.
You need money to survive.
How are things at the gallery?
I need time to learn more. It's not easy.
You know about art.
It's not just about art. You have to know so much.
About the artists, pieces...
It's not only domestic art and artists...
I have to know how to interpret art, and I need information about the collectors.
Management skills. It's just never ending.
I guess so.
After all, a gallery needs to make a profit by selling and buying art.
It's not easy but it's fun.
I feel driven to learn.
You should work hard at it.
If you don't get to inherit Jo Gallery, I'll make you your own gallery.
I love art, too.
Shall we picture our future?
You'll be the CEO of a gallery and I'll be the CEO of single men's club.
We can go to galleries together on weekends, go to concerts, and eat, too.
Don't you think it'll be fun in a way?
Are you not thinking about your family at all? You're only thinking about yourself.
I do think about my family.
And?
A person should not be so greedy about everything.
Since I'm not being greedy about you....
Well, you can't call this greed.
Anyway, as I respect your decision,
there should be things my parents should give up, too.
Especially with their children...
It's not like we're born to just have babies.
I think sometimes humans are the ones that are destroying this earth.
We waste and pollute this earth.
If the population decreases and eventually humans are gone,
then the earth will become more alive.
Well, people say there will be an end one day.
We'll all die together then.
Anyway, my family shouldn't expect too much from me.
I'm sure they want grandchildren.
Muom will give them grandchildren.
When I listen to you, it does sound logically correct. But it's a bit weird.
What's weird?
If it's logically right, then it's right.
That's right, Yaya. Keep smiling.
I'll help you forget the past and be happy.
Hyogyong?
Hello, Mother?
Did you leave?
I'm about to leave.
I just need to wear my traditional dress.
Okay.
See you.
You must be happy.
Yes. I'm the happiest when my children are doing well.
You look so handsome today.
You look beautiful.
So pretty. Let me take a picture.
One, two, three.
Let me see.
My face looks bigger. One more time.
Okay.
Okay, one more time.
One, two, three.
Gosh, my daughter!
Hello.
She looks so lovely, doesn't she?
Yes.
You look decent.
Please come this way.
I'll take pictures.
Here we go.
Look here.
One, two, three.
One more time.
One, two, three.
I mean, seriously, this is his first drama...
I know what you mean.
It's not like that these days,
but before newbies were the loudest ones...
He eats with no manner either.
Does he live alone?
I think so.
If he's living all alone, he must be craving good food.
And you know how many writers are hungry and poor.
I asked him why I wasn't right for the role.
And he said I wasn't talking to him with respect.
He looks down on people, too?
He does.
He has all the bad qualities.
This is so unlikely of Hwaom. How can he be friends with such a guy?
We sometimes have to deal with people we don't like.
Just like how not every cell in our body is good.
I'll take care of him. So don't worry.
Okay.
I feel much better talking to you.
Go ahead and drink up.
Sonji is lucky.
I'm going to marry you off to someone better.
Should I have gone to the wedding?
I'll ask Yaya to take some pictures and text me.
Smile.
Smile, please.
One, two, three.
Did you smile?
One more.
One, two, three.
Why are they walking in together?
You look so pretty.
Where's Muom?
He's greeting the guests.
These are my cousins.
Hello.
Where's Jia?
She couldn't make it.
I'll tell you about it later.
Please come this way. I'm going to take a picture.
How do you feel?
Not too nervous?
Not yet.
You have to train Muom well.
Here we go.
One, two, three.
Just one more.
One, two, three.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
You must be so happy.
Yes, Janghun.
You have to act as the bride's father today.
Yes.
Hello.
Hi, you're here.
Did the pre-wedding ceremony go okay?
Yeah.
Thanks.
See you later.
The two look good together.
Hello.
Hello, grandma.
Hi. Sit here.
I'll sit with Father.
Okay. Please have him eat before he leaves.
Okay.
For today's holy matrimony,
the mothers of both parties will light the candles.
It's unusual to see you so nervous.
I know.
Let's get you ready for your entrance.
Good luck.
Next, we'll have the groom Muom Jang enter.
Please enter.
Ladies and gentleman, please face the entrance.
We'll now have the beautiful bride Sonji Yook enter.
Please enter.
Let's get married.
Oh, Sonji.
'I changed the light bulbs.
Please call me when you get home.'
Next, we'll have the bride and groom's bow.
Please bow.
What do we call her? 'Young lady?'
Just Sonji, I guess.
I don't know how we should address her properly.
So, we have so many bosses now.
We already have two bosses, and now she's added to the list.
Muom Jang, do you take Sonji Yook to be your lawfully wedded wife,
to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better,
for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,
until death do you part?
I do.
Good. He answered that very loudly.
Sonji Yook, do you take Muom Jang to be your lawfully wedded husband,
to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better,
for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health,
until death do you part?
I do.
If she wants to inherit the gallery, what else can she do?
She'd better be good to me.
It's not like anything will change if she leaves.
Now the bride and groom will bow to their parents.
Please walk over to your parents.
There should be Junso's picture somewhere...
Groom and bride, march forward!
