[Episode 99]
All I'm saying is test her acting first.
Her mother is the one who tried to pay you, not Jia Jo.
She was probably just going along with her mom.
If you cut out people over something minor who will remain by your side later?
If you have cancer, all you have to do is cut off the infected part,
not every single part inside your body!
Are you that perfect?
Didn't you get special treatment from Gyeon Sungwoo when you were a lawyer?
To give some small advice...
A writer should have sympathy for people he writes about.
Why?
Because you're portraying human lives.
Everyone is weak and has sadness.
The same goes for the human body.
Everything on the outside like the arms, legs, head, and skull may seem strong,
but all the intestines are warm, soft and fragile.
That's just how we are.
Someone might look strong on the outside,
but everyone has a weak side.
Right.
To be honest, I don't like Jia Jo.
She looks too much like my mom.
My mom didn't pass away.
She was remarried.
She abandoned me and my sister.
She even has the same first name as her.
That's why I didn't want to see her.
I didn't have the courage to face her everyday.
That was the reason.
But I guess Jo Jia didn't have anything to do with my mother.
You're right.
I shouldn't cut her off over my personal issues.
I'm sorry.
Tell her to prepare well for the role.
I'm leaving.
Sorry, I was being too harsh.
It's okay, you bastard.
The color of love is red so it changes easily.
The color of purity is white so it gets dirty easily.
But friendship has no color so it can't change that easily.
I see how good of friends you guys are.
Not all red is the same.
There are red colors that never change.
I guess nobody is free of heartache.
Well, you don't have any heartache.
My heartache is you.
If I'm your biggest heartache, just accept it.
A little bit of hurt will make you stronger.
Okay.
It's all melted.
We should leave. It's late.
The employees need to go home.
Thanks.
Jia was casted thanks to you.
It's not what I did. It's thanks to you who came up with the title.
You convinced him aggressively.
Your car is ready.
You're not going back to the gallery, are you?
No.
Go on.
Make sure you lock the door, my love.
Okay.
Ah, I don't want to leave.
We'll see each other again tomorrow.
I'll text you.
Okay.
Why aren't you going home?
Are you following me?
Yes.
I'm your stalker for today.
I'm okay. Don't worry about me and go.
It's late.
I'll feel better when I see you get home safely.
It's a scary world out there.
You should go to bed, Mother.
What time is Sonji coming tomorrow?
She said she was coming back on Sunday.
Why?
Thanks for escorting me.
Sure, go on in.
You were impressive today.
You liked me being the tough guy?
It went well with your image.
You liked me cursing?
Yeah.
Is this a compliment? Or are you joking?
You were just different.
I've never seen that side of you.
I'm a pretty good curser, you know.
Good night, little lady.
Bye, gangster Hwaom.
Thank you.
Any time.
Don't forget to take your vitamins.
Okay.
Writer Jung approved it.
My casting?
Yes.
How?
I brought it up and Hwaom pushed for it.
He just agreed?
Well, it was decided after some discussion.
Now it's your turn to do well.
It's all up to you.
I'll do my best.
Don't pop open the champagne already.
These days, it's only certain when it's broadcasted.
Since Hwaom is in charge, nothing will go wrong this time.
Still.
Thanks, Yaya.
Hwaom was the one who made it happen.
Mom, I won't be able to work at the gallery for now.
I have to exercise and practice acting.
Okay.
It's a sticker picture machine.
I couldn't turn him down when he proposed to me with a ring.
Don't feel too bad, Hyogyong.
This was just meant to happen.
It's not like you can force something like this.
Well, what about you?
These days, I think Hwaom may really be the one for you.
Don't say that.
I don't want anything bad happening to Hwaom.
It's the same with me.
Maybe my husband died because of my rotten luck...
It's not like that.
My case is different from you.
It hasn't even been a year since he died.
You don't have to think too much into it.
One or two years... It doesn't mean much.
Yongjun is no longer here
and Songjun is the one who is by your side now.
You have to be strong.
You never know when his mom will barge in here.
Be ready to be slapped or even be cursed at.
You're not expecting her to welcome you with open arms, are you?
No way. I have a conscience.
If she slaps or curses at you, just take it.
Don't hate her for it.
I won't.
Knowing Songjun, he's not going to make this a long battle.
He's heaven-sent for you.
Your life is finally looking up.
If I'm a good person, I would've never agreed to marry him.
For his mother, yes. But what about Songjun?
If both sides can't be happy, then at least make Songjun happy.
You're choosing love.
So you don't need to feel guilty.
If she's a wise mother, she'll know she has to let go of her son one day.
Don't be shaken.
If you waiver, it'll only make things harder for Songjun.
I understand.
What kind of ring is it?
It's too much.
Wow.
Sea urchin noodles and abalone porridge, please.
Yes, sir.
Where is the restroom?
On your left side when you go out.
I'll be back.
Okay.
Do you ever pee?
Of course I do.
When?
Hi, my daughter.
What are you doing?
I was washing dishes.
Dishes from breakfast.
Isn't the maid coming today?
Yes, but I told her not to come since there wasn't much to do.
Since I'm not home, you have less work to do around the house, huh?
Like laundry...
Yes.
Should we bring back tile fish or Hanrabong tangerine?
I hear Chunhaehyang tangerines are better.
Okay.
I was actually going to call you to brag.
About what?
Misol from Migang Group asked for private classes with six of her friends.
All of them are from well-to-do families.
Wow.
You're going to make a lot of money soon.
Very soon, you'll be the best cooking teacher in town.
Good morning.
Hwaom isn't in yet?
He went on a business trip to China.
I see...
Try some of these.
Where did you get these rice cakes?
Someone got them for me for Lunar New Year's.
I heard the title is 'Moon and Flower'
Yes.
But it's still a secret.
Who would I tell?
I'm sure you have clients in the broadcasting industry.
Still...
When will you have the script?
Writer Jung is working on it so I'm sure we'll have at least one in a few days.
Then can my daughter get a copy?
Without anyone knowing?
So she can practice.
I can't release the script.
I might get fired.
I won't tell anyone.
I'll let you know once it's ready.
Thank you.
Sure. Thanks for the rice cakes.
When is Hwaom coming back?
Next Monday.
I see.
Have a good day.
Okay.
Thank you.
Sure.
I'm always lucky with food.
I need better luck with girls.
Muom arrived and he's on his way to his in-laws.
They're coming back tomorrow evening, right?
In the afternoon.
So, a honeymoon baby?
Yes.
I sure hope she's really pregnant!
I know.
I can tell just by looking at her.
Just by looking at her face.
Really?
Sure.
Why do you look so nervous all of a sudden?
Are you hiding something?
No.
I'm not even dating anyone.
It was just a joke.
The rice from the rice punch shouldn't flow up.
Check in about two hours.
Okay.
It smells so good.
Someone is calling you.
Who is it?
It says Sookja.
Hello?
Yes.
My friend wants to buy an art piece.
I recommended Artist Choongi Do's work
so please tell Ms. Kim to exhibit it at the gallery.
Which piece by Artist Choongi Do?
Spring.
I guess she's from a wealthy family.
Yes.
What does her father do?
She doesn't have a father
and her mother is a contractor for the defense industry.
I see.
I should appoint you as the Vice president as early as this fall.
You already sold three pieces.
I wonder if I don't need to prepare any gifts for Writer Jung.
I'm so thankful that he casted Jia.
He says the biggest gift for him is to not get him anything and to not call him.
No way.
Did he say that himself?
Hwaom said that.
What does he know?
Writer Jung might feel differently.
He might not want money, but he lives alone, right?
Yes.
Maybe we could prepare him some side dishes.
He needs good food to have strength to write.
I'm sure his sister from Daegu sends him stuff.
He's from Daegu?
She married someone from Daegu.
I see.
Anyway, ask him if he needs anything.
Okay.
Mrs. Kim from the Haeyang Group said such good things about you.
She says you have good manners.
There are so many young people with no manners these days.
You need people's approving words.
That's how you succeed.
Approval from others means a great deal.
There's something you should know.
What is it?
Songjun proposed to Hyogyoung.
What? Really?
Yes.
What did his family say about that?
He'll let them know soon.
This... makes no sense.
It hasn't been long since Yongjun died.
Don't you think so?
It's not like they got divorced.
Well, this is good for Hyogyong.
She can't raise Junso and live alone forever.
We would've supported her financially.
She has both, me and you.
I know what you're thinking,
but it hasn't even been a year since Yongjun died.
I thought they had a good relationship.
They did.
Like hell they did.
Who started this relationship?
Songjun, of course.
Gosh...
What if he changes his mind after Junso gets really close to him?
Songjun isn't that type of person.
Faithful guys can easily betray their wives.
If he finds someone else, there'll be no stopping him.
Dallan is going to be so upset.
Don't tell Father yet.
Okay.
Maybe Hyogyong came on to him.
It's Songjun who is hung up on her.
Her only son is marrying a widow?
I'm going to take a walk to Yangjaecheon.
I'll go with you.
Songjun, do I look okay?
Yes.
How have you been, Mother?
Hello.
There are boxes of hanrabong and chunhaehyang tangerine in the trunk.
Can you bring one of each?
Okay.
Let us bow to you.
You guys don't need to...
No, we should.
You guys didn't fight, did you?
Why would we fight?
Maybe a small argument over love?
I don't even know what the argument is.
I don't either.
How do you argue?
Aren't you thirsty?
I am... Mother.
Sonji told me your Andong rice punch is so good.
I made some.
It's just refreshing.
I wonder if Junso is doing okay.
I miss him, too.
She never visited us after leaving.
It's all because of Hwaom.
Yaya is here.
She brought Junso.
Oh, my. Who do we have here?
Goodness, goodness!
Junso, Look how much he's grown!
I guess he likes being with his mom.
His face looks so much better than before.
Muom is coming tomorrow, right?
Yes.
We were just talking about Junso.
Do you remember me?
Remember your grandma?
You brought him alone?
I came with Hyogyong.
She went to take care of something.
Junso is here.
Hello.
Junso is here.
Junso.
The actor from this movie looks so handsome, like a British gentleman.
I want to grow old like him.
Is everything okay?
Yes.
How is Nadan's mom treating you?
She's been good to me.
What is Hwaom doing at that office?
He's preparing for a new drama.
Writers and directors should do the preparations.
Mother, Samhee is here.
Attorney Jung.
Hello Mother!
Welcome.
Is Father out for golf?
He's taking a nap.
Gosh, Samhee!
Hello.
I almost forgot your face.
How long has it been?
It's just been busy for me trying to make a living.
You already have enough to live your whole life.
It depends on how I live.
I just eat rice and kimchi these days.
I heard you opened an after-school for your sister.
Yes, just a small writing school.
I'm sure it better than a teacher's salary.
Yes.
That was nice of you.
You were able to study and succeed thanks to your sister.
I brought some Gyeongokgo herb medicine.
I heard it's fermented well.
This is for you.
We were about to order it because we were out.
One of my old clients' fathers sent it to me to thank me.
It must be priceless.
It's hard to find well-made gyeongokgo.
What about your sister?
She never likes taking medicine. Neither western nor herbal medicine.
That just means that she's still young.
She must be healthy.
How is your health?
We're doing okay.
I couldn't come on Lunar New Year because I was so busy.
You know Hwaom's practically my boss now.
He told me not to come out until I finish two episodes.
So did you finish everything?
Yes.
Good job.
Mother, do you have rice?
Of course we do.
We always have rice.
Why are you getting up?
I want to help.
Gosh, I have enough people helping me.
Just sit down.
You're here as our guest today.
You just need dried yellow croaker with eggs, right? And some pickled fish.
I'm not picky with food. I mean, I've been jobless for ages.
Whatever, you have all the money you ever need.
Oh, Junso must be awake.
Is there a baby in the house?
Did you decide on the menu?
It's done. A month's worth of stuff.
For working twice a week, it's not too bad.
You're making a lot compared to the time spent working.
Sure.
If you're just good at one thing, you never have to worry about money.
You're right.
Does Muom snore?
No, he was pretty quiet.
Don't pass gas in front of him.
I won't.
Even when you sleep.
He can't hear me if he's sleeping.
It's worse if you pass gas while you're sleeping.
He can still hear you if he's not in deep sleep.
Some guys don't like to wash.
No way.
There are many like that. You just don't know.
If he asks you to wash his back, then just do it without complaining.
Men are like children.
They just pretend to be grownups.
But they take off that mask in front of their wives.
You didn't notice yet, right?
No.
Give it a few days. You'll see what I mean.
That would be cute.
There are two kinds of husbands.
The cute ones, and the ones who you want to smack.
Okay, okay.
Junso will stay at Mr. Jang's family's place for a few days.
Grandmother wanted to have him for a few days.
They'll take good care of him.
What should we have for dinner?
Do you want some sushi or Italian food?
Do you even have an appetite?
Let's enjoy today for now and not think about anything else.
Whatever happens tomorrow, we'll deal with it tomorrow.
You're so optimistic for an artist.
So you don't like it?
I didn't mean it that way.
Just call me by my name now.
It's just a habit.
Just try it. Come on.
Songjun.
I'll be leaving now.
Without having dinner?
I had a late lunch here earlier.
I wanted to play Korean chess with you.
He has an appointment with a reporter.
Stop by anytime if you miss homemade food.
Okay.
Just move in and work here.
I'll let you use my library.
That sounds like an idea.
Hwaom will make my life miserable.
He doesn't mix business with pleasure.
He even threatens to fire me.
I'm sure he's just joking.
You know how he is.
There's some truth to his jokes. It's scary.
Keep up the hard work.
I'm still happy doing this work.
Text me your e-mail address.
I'll send you the script. Please proofread it for me.
Sure, I would be honored.
Hello?
What are you doing?
Just reading.
You?
I'm spending my last night at Mom's.
For now, no news is good news.
Okay.
Do I need to know anything about my in-laws?
They usually have breakfast at 7:30.
Do you think you can wake up?
I will even if I have to crawl out of bed.
If you learn to cook and help out, I'm sure they'll be happy.
The food is usually a little less salty than your family's.
Got you.
Muom's mom usually comes out to the kitchen around 6 am.
What time does Grandmother sleep and wake up?
You came straight here without going home first?
Yes.
But your brother and Sonji are going home today.
I can see them tonight.
How is the script?
How did you know I was looking at the script?
I guess you guys talked.
Yes.
Are you closer to him than me?
Just for business.
It's interesting.
I want to find out more about the next episode.
It builds the anticipation.
That's why he's being so confident.
It's well-organized and the story sucks you in.
What about any weaknesses?
Anything we should work on?
Well, the female characters' lines are not as smooth.
That's what I'm worried about, too.
Everything should be perfect.
You should find an assistant writer.
No one writes alone.
Why don't you try it?
How can I...
It's just helping with what's already written.
Come on.
Ask him if that's okay.
Thanks for the great food and hospitality, Mother.
Thanks for enjoying my food.
You did so much work.
I don't want you to get sick.
Do I load everything here?
Yes, go load them.
I won't get sick.
Don't worry about Sonji. Trust me.
I won't worry.
Let's go.
He says okay.
Don't expect much from me.
Don't take it too hard and just be yourself.
Did you take care of your business?
Yes, it worked out well.
I couldn't find anything to buy.
You don't need to get me anything.
Chinese dress?
I hope it's not too small.
When would I wear this?
Anyway, I think it'd look good on you.
They're gone now.
This is why daughters are no use.
What do you mean?
I raised her, but now she's part of another family.
I hope she'll be loved there.
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
I found someone I like.
Huh?
I want to marry her.
Why are you telling me this now?
How old is she?
She turned 31 this year.
That's perfect for you.
What does she do?
You'll give us your blessing, right?
Of course.
