[Episode 104]
She just texted me back.
She has time tomorrow.
Reserve a restaurant.
The Aria Restaurant at Namsan.
Make a reservation under my name.
Okay.
We will meet Yoo Raeka tomorrow.
You want me to meet her, too?
Of course!
I already know what she looks like so what's the point.
You have to meet her in person.
It'll give you a better idea of her image if you meet her.
Yoo Raek wanted to meet you.
Do I need to show her my face if she wants to know what I look like?
That's the right attitude for the actress.
She wants to learn more about the character from the writer.
She's not even a new face, but she's showing effort.
Did you see the second episode?
I really liked it.
Seo Eedam became a more attractive character.
Who are you thinking of as Seo Eedam?
What about you?
Who'd go well with Yoo Raeka?
I thought of Choo Youngmin.
Jinx, same here!
I thought of him, too.
See? We have so much in common.
Do you like mustard leaves kimchi?
We got some as a gift.
I'll bring some side dishes for you tomorrow.
I have nothing to give you though.
You bought me grilled pork belly yesterday.
It was only pork belly, though.
It was very good.
You guys ate grilled pork belly together?
Yes.
Without me?
Do we need you around to eat grilled pork belly?
You don't even like grilled pork belly.
I can eat it, too, you know.
I made the reservation and both the director and Jia can come.
Can you cast Choo Youngmin for me?
Sure.
When will we have the third episode ready?
I wrote about half yesterday. It's going better than I thought.
Yes, sir.
Take a seat.
Do you need anything to drink?
No thanks.
What will you do if you were in my situation?
Please, Hyogyong...
Please leave here without my brother finding out.
My friendship with Yaya is over now.
And my mom is about to cut ties with my brother.
That's not what you want, is it?
I think that's the only way.
What are you going to do?
I'll think about it.
No, make up your mind right now.
I'll leave after I hear your answer.
You just want to marry him and pretend you had no other choice?
Well, even if I were you, I'd feel that way.
But you know that isn't right.
Do you love my brother, too?
Yes.
If you love him so much, don't ruin his life for him.
Am I wrong, Hyogyong?
You can't be so selfish.
Don't you want the best for the man you love instead of thinking about yourself?
That's why parents are so sacrificial to their children.
My mom gave up everything to raise my brother and I.
Tell me what you want to do.
I made a promise to Songjun...
That I'd listen to him no matter what.
If you just leave without letting him know, I'll take care of everything else here.
Don't worry about anything and just leave.
Please?
I'll think about it.
There's no point in thinking right now.
This isn't something to think about and drag on.
My mom is losing her sleep and about to faint.
My in-laws and everyone else will criticize you two.
Think about all the things people will say about you.
Please help me.
You lose some and you gain some.
If you give up on my brother, I'm sure you'll meet someone better than him.
God will lead you to someone else.
You will be rewarded for your sacrifice.
Please?
Try to persuade your brother first.
I just don't know what to do.
My brother is not in his right mind.
Does he look normal to you?
If he were normal, would he be doing this?
Everybody will agree that this is not right.
Bring me anyone who will say you two are doing the right thing.
Let go of your greed.
Renting a studio won't cost you that much.
Find a studio apartment and leave tomorrow.
I'll make sure he doesn't come here tomorrow.
My mom will never accept you as his wife.
What will you do if Junso does something like this later? How would you feel?
Have you thought about my mom's point of view?
What you give is what you get in life.
You have to be a good person for Junso to have a good life, too.
You know how much Songjun will suffer if I leave.
I'm sure he'll suffer for a while.
You were suffering when Yongjun died, too, right?
And Yaya was, too.
But you two are doing just fine.
You even fell in love with my brother.
Heartaches are bound to heal.
My brother will thank you for leaving him later.
Hello.
Oh, hi.
Is your drama preparation going well?
Yeah.
Hey, wait.
Let me have a word with you.
Someone I know can't sing well and would like to get private vocal lessons.
Do you know any good tutor?
I'll look into it and let you know.
Thanks.
Sure.
Do you have instant noodles?
I have rice.
I have no appetite, but if you have herbs, make me bibimbap with fried eggs.
I have herbs.
You're not eating?
I'll have some later.
Did you put in sesame oil?
Yes.
I don't know why we get hungry 3 times a day.
Sometimes I wish I could just eat 2 meals a day.
Don't you agree?
If you change your mind, everything will be better with Yaya and me.
My brother's a man, too. Don't trust men.
I have a friend who got married because the guy was so hung up on her.
But after just 2 years, he had an affair and they got divorced.
She was from a wealthy family and really pretty.
My brother tends to do things out of whims.
I know him better than you since I grew up with him.
I bet he'll regret marrying in less than 2 years.
I don't think I'd ever get sick of bibimbap.
I like drip coffee better now.
I'll make some for you.
Never mind.
I believe you'll do the right thing.
I know you are a nice and sweet person.
Songjun...
Stop using him as an excuse.
You are old enough to make your own decisions.
I heard your late father came out in his dream.
I don't believe that story.
My mom and I should've also had the same dream, then.
My mom didn't dream anything of the sort.
You think you will be happy when we're so unhappy?
Do you really think so?
You should do what is right.
Just focus on your son.
You have your son, so why are you being so greedy?
I decided on this after much contemplation.
It's not like I didn't give a hard thought about this.
Having a good background doesn't make you happy.
There are plenty of couples like us who are happy.
The more I listen to Songjun, I agree with him more.
Let me beg you.
Your brother and I love each other very much.
There's a saying, 'Your beginning seem humble,
but your future will be prosperous.'
I know that I have the worst possible conditions.
I don't come from a wealthy family, either.
But my feelings for him are true.
Since when?
How long have you been in love with him?
Has it been a year?
Was I just wasting my breath on you?
Let's wrap things up right here and now.
I'm calling from Jo Gallery.
Hello.
Yes.
Our Director wants to pay you a visit with a collector.
I see.
I understand.
I'll let her know.
Thank you. Goodbye.
You should've called me up.
I wanted to take a break.
About Eedam's hobby...
Yes?
I originally thought of skin scuba,
But should I change it to something else?
Yeah.
That'll cost too much production fees.
What should I change it to?
Should I say he's really into paintings?
That may be better.
Since Min Deulae is a reporter for culture section...
You can change that part from the episode, right?
Yes.
You sure make my life so easy.
Anytime.
It's my pleasure.
Hello?
You're still in the office?
Yes.
Director Song wanted you to meet a rookie.
For Journalist Lee Chisol's role...
All right.
I'll be there in about 30 minutes.
Okay.
The actor who'll play Lee Chisol is coming here.
I'll be done with episode 3 by tomorrow morning.
Would you like your kimchi now?
Sure.
Can I open it?
Yes.
It smells yummy.
It'll be crazy good with some white rice.
Thanks so much.
Are you going to call my brother now?
No, I need to charge my phone.
Are you going to drag this on until he gets here?
Should I call everyone? My brother, Mom and Yaya?
Maybe we can see the end of this with everyone here.
How can you say...
My mom is crying every single day these days.
Wouldn't you too if you were her?
It's my friend.
What are you doing here?
I'm here to buy a painting.
She's Artist Yook's sister.
Oh.
You know I just finished renovating my house.
I need a good painting fast for housewarming party tomorrow.
I have to ask him first which ones are for sale.
He doesn't sell some of his paintings.
He's not here?
No.
Can I at least see his paintings?
Sure.
I'll leave for now.
Okay.
Enjoy the paintings.
Thanks.
Let's meet him together.
Okay.
Was it Yaya?
Yes.
Your manager can wait out there for a minute.
Sure.
Please have a seat.
How long have you been acting?
I used to do theater.
I heard that you came out in a movie, too.
Just a minor role... from the movie 'Space Love.'
Junso...
What?
You're here because you missed your wife already?
I'm here to get changed.
I spilled coffee all over.
Hey, have a seat here.
Your wife went to her mother's house.
I heard that there's some trouble with her brother.
What is it?
You must know what it is.
It's a long story.
Did he make some girl pregnant?
No.
He wants to marry his mother.
What?
Are you serious?
Yes.
Send me the file via email.
Okay.
What do you think?
Not so impressive, right?
Right.
He seemed half decent for the role.
His eyes looked too weak as well.
It's an important role...
Let's audition all at once from now on.
Okay.
Count me out tomorrow.
Why?
You know I'm not much of a party person.
But you're our writing crew.
Whatever.
You can do it without me.
I'm sure Yoo Raeka isn't interested in meeting me.
If you don't go, I'm not going either.
What's up with him?
Does he have feelings for Yaya?
Come out.
It helps to meet the actors in person.
Besides, she's the main character.
Why is she looking at Samhee?
He's right.
Okay.
Did you tell everyone the dress code?
Yes.
Except for you two.
Dress code?
Dress up in Chinese traditional attires.
No way!
It's fun that way.
Sons are giving their parents so much headaches.
Why would they fall for girls like that?
I know.
She even has a son...
Sonji's mother must be losing her mind.
I'm sure.
I would...
Is it Sonji?
Yes.
What happened?
She's all right now.
I guess she was just under a lot of stress.
Was Sonji here?
No.
When she comes, let me know right away.
I'm sure with her personality, she'll be here very soon.
Why don't we call all of your family and decide together?
Are you hesitant?
Hang in there...
This won't take more than a few months.
I don't think I'm doing the right thing.
I think she'll give up if I talk to her just one more time.
I was almost done when her friend came by to buy a painting.
All right.
Make sure you hold Songjun the day after tomorrow.
All right.
I heard him talk on the phone earlier, and I think he's meeting someone at 3.
The day after tomorrow?
Yes.
At 3?
Yes.
Yes, Okay.
Yoo Raeka just called.
She wants to meet the writer in person.
And also the actress who plays Lee Kangso.
Really?
Ask her whether she has time tomorrow.
Should I call?
No.
This is all pointless.
I'm only going to think about Nadan.
Who'd go well with Yoo Raeka?
I thought of Choo Youngmin.
Jinx, same here!
Gosh, he's so childish...
You just behave yourself.
I might have to beat you up.
Breakfast is ready.
Okay.
Happy birthday.
Thank you.
Thank you, Mother.
I couldn't prepare much since it's so early.
I'll buy you nice dinner.
We have a party to go to tonight.
Party?
Since we have two episodes, we're having a party for introductions and for luck.
Who's the male actor?
They're thinking of Choo Youngmin.
The dress code is a traditional Chinese dress.
I have one that my Chinese friend gave me.
I have one, too.
I should've got a cake this morning, then.
I thought of having one for dinner.
It's okay.
Who can it be so early in the morning?
Maybe Hwaom sent me flowers.
Why are all three of you getting up?
Who is it from?
From Ms. Yuk Sonji.
That's so lavish.
Well, now that she's married into a rich family...
Thank you.
'I had such a great time with you on my last year's birthday.
Happy birthday.
I hope this won't be the last time I wish you a happy birthday.
Please persuade your sister-in-law for me. From Sonji'
Did you give my liver patties to Hyogyong?
Does she have dizzy spells?
Yes.
You took all those side dishes to your art studio so that you can give them to her?
I had some, too.
What are you doing?
Mother!
Do you know how hard it is to make those patties?
Do you know how hard it is to go to the old market place and get the blood out!
You made me do all the work so that you can serve those to her?
You have no respect for your own mother,
Mother, please!
I'm sorry.
Please.
How could you have lied to me like that?
You are my eldest son!
Hwaom's family doesn't know it's your birthday today?
How would they know?
I moved out of their house when I was still young.
It's not like they celebrated a child's birthday.
But they can't even send you flowers?
He's just like everybody else...
Nihao.
To Namsan, please.
Are you Korean?
Yes.
Oh...
Can I make it there by 6 o'clock?
Yes.
The traffic isn't bad at this hour. It's a bad traffic going the opposite way.
Are you going for an interview at a Chinese restaurant?
No.
Then what?
Have you been a taxi driver for long?
No.
It's only been a few days.
I was a chauffeur for a very famous lady.
So what happened?
I got fired.
Why?
I had too many questions, and my questions got on her nerves.
It's all my fault.
Let's see...
How much he flirts with Yoo Raeka.
That way I can let go of him completely from my heart.
What is that you are wearing?
I have a party... for the drama.
Why are you dressed like that?
What kind of wine would you like?
The producer will decide later.
Yes, sir.
You didn't leave yet?
What do you think, Mom?
A perfect gu niang.
Gu niang?
It means 'young lady' in Chinese.
Where's Yaya?
Yaya, we have to go!
Being young is such a good thing.
You look good in anything when you are young.
You look just as beautiful, Mom.
So luxurious.
We'll get going.
Okay.
Won't you be cold?
Wear my fur coat.
We'll be in a car anyway.
See you later.
Bye.
For two, please.
Did you end work early because of me?
I pushed back my Thursday and Friday patients.
I wanted to exercise.
I have a big belly now.
Oh give me a break.
I talked to Songjun, but it's no use.
He won't listen to anyone.
Just give him up.
It's easier said than done.
But he won't listen to you.
He's madly in love with her.
Can you understand him?
Well, everybody is different.
I got on a taxi, and he goes 'Nihao.'
Okay.
The director can't make it.
His friend suddenly passed away.
It's hard to see babies today, but there are more people dying these days.
I know.
Is it 6 yet?
It's 5 minutes to 6.
Hello.
It looks great on you.
The director can't make it.
His friend suddenly died...
Well, as long as Yoo Raeka can come...
Right?
You should eat something.
Not yet.
Writer Jung got on a taxi, and the driver greeted him in Chinese.
Nihao.
Are you done with episode 3?
I e-mailed it to you.
She must be late since she's a big star.
Should I call her?
Don't bother.
Who cares if she doesn't come?
You're not surprised?
Guys are bound to fall for girls when they spend too much time together.
Hyogyong is pretty and slim, right?
She's quite a beauty.
Well, it was bound to happen then.
Even if she was still married, he could fall for her.
What do we do about Hwaom?
He's seeing Yaya everyday now.
She is even helping him with the scripts.
This is why people say they can't control their children.
Of all people, our Hwaom...
Yes?
Dinner is ready.
Okay.
Don't say anything to Sonji.
Hello.
This is Mr. Jang Hwaom.
Nice to meet you.
Are you here alone?
No, with my manager.
He's Writer Jung Samhee.
I really enjoyed your script.
You're so much more beautiful in person.
She's Writer Jung's assistant writer, Ms. Baek Ya.
And she's Jia Jo who plays Lee Kangso.
Hello.
Hi.
I'm Lee Bansok. Nihao!
He's an assistant producer.
I should get on your good side, then.
Everyone is staring at her.
Both episodes 1 and 2 turned out so well.
Scripts and casting are what determine the success of dramas.
Even with the best of scripts, if casting is off,
and if they can't act, nobody will watch that drama.
I'm very relieved that Yoo Raeka and Jia Jo are on board.
For the success of 'Moon and Flower!'
Cheers!
Producer Jang, you should play Seo Eedam's role.
You're so handsome.
I first thought you were an actor yourself.
