[Episode 118]
Can we meet?
Right now?
When you're done with your work.
Maybe one hour later? By 6?
Okay, where should I meet you?
At Rodeo Drive.
All right. I'll text you with the location.
Okay.
Is it because of the moxa, or the walking?
I'm hungry now.
There's a street bar right there, Janghun.
Oh.
There are so many things to eat.
What are you going to have?
I want some noodles and chili rice cakes...
Two noodles and chili rice cakes, please.
Okay.
You know why we need to exercise?
When we exercise, our body gets hot, right?
Right.
That's when cancer cells get destroyed.
Cancers cells can't fight the heat.
Ah...
But, how come you don't exercise then?
Do I ever have the time?
That's an excuse.
There are so many people who walk around the park after dinner.
You can at least walk for an hour at night.
Walking alone looks pitiful, though.
You can call me when you go out to exercise.
Okay.
Enjoy.
Thanks.
This is made out of rice, not flour.
Yes.
It's not too sweet and delicious.
Chili rice cakes remind me of my sister.
I know.
Sunhwa used to love chili rice cakes.
Poor thing.
Sunhwa and Nadan both didn't even get to get married.
Nadan only had a wedding.
You're right.
You must be hot.
Here.
It's because I'm eating hot food.
There was a small restaurant called Miso in front of our school.
Sunhwa and I used to spend all of our allowance there.
Their cold noodles were really spicy.
Ah, we bought it for you once.
Not just once.
You bought it several times for me.
You have such a good memory.
You were so pretty back then.
You're still pretty now.
If I didn't get married early, I might've become Janghun's wife.
Then how happy would that have been for us? Heart-to-heart...
It's ready now.
Okay.
Which one looks tender?
Junso, try this one. Say, ah.
You have to chew a lot, okay?
Have some.
You, too.
Okay.
Is it good, Junso?
You have to chew for a long time.
Yum, yum.
Let's try to wrap it with lettuce now.
He should be eating vegetables from when he's little.
Okay, let's use this fork.
Here...
You're all done.
What do you think?
It looks nice.
Thank you. Have a nice day.
Yes, Writer Jung?
I'm sorry.
Hwaom just called and the NBS team leader wants to meet us.
Really? Okay, then.
I'll text you when I'm done.
Okay.
This is so cool. Try it.
She adores Junso and she's so nice to him.
Did CEO Soh buy all of this for you, Junso?
Wow, Junso, you must be happy.
I'm jealous of you.
Here, here, here.
Look at this book.
What is it on this book?
It's a lion!
You're so smart.
This is the order list for Saenghyup.
Okay, Mother.
Junso, do you like gallery grandma?
Did you have lots of delicious food today?
You probably like gallery grandma more than me.
Sit down.
Why did you change your hair?
Just because.
I met Producer Jang this morning.
I heard everything.
He asked me to help you move out.
Why didn't you listen to me earlier?
You've made things more complicated.
Do what he says.
You should exclude me from your life now.
Does it even feel better to do things your way?
You should live your life now.
You also like Producer Jang, right?
You want me to just think about myself?
You can't satisfy everyone in this world.
I think you and Producer Jang are meant to be.
Think about it.
You think so, too, right?
You just feel bad to let it happen.
When you're not sure what to do,
just follow the guy and do what he says.
Producer Jang is trustworthy,
and he's someone you can depend on.
He truly loves you, too.
The gods give three chances for everyone.
I think that's true.
This is your chance!
Don't let your chance slip away.
Feel guilty?
Feel guilty for whom?
Producer Jang says he can be happy only if it's you.
I know I'm not in the position to give you advice.
I know that, but don't let Producer Jang get away.
I want nothing more in life.
The only thing I wish for is your well-being. I want you to have a good life.
I can explain things to my husband.
Leave it to me and you can leave.
You won't regret it for sure.
I'm sure you'll be glad you did it.
If you have a good life,
I'm going to live my life repenting by raising Junso.
My heart aches when I see Junso.
At such a young age...
What do you mean, pretty? I'm a grandma now.
Oh, no.
It's okay.
That tastes good.
Have more.
Janghun, you have seaweed on you.
Where?
Hold on.
I'll do it.
Thank you.
No problem at all.
Have a good night.
Chief Kim will give you a call tomorrow.
Okay.
Writer Jung, see you again.
Okay.
He seems sharp and prudent. He makes good decisions.
That's how he became an executive there.
Yes, Hwaom.
Are you home?
Yes.
I'm done. I'll stop by to see you.
Okay.
Are you going back to the office?
No.
Then, home?
Yes.
What about tomorrow? Are you coming out to the office?
I'll see.
I'll call you after I talk to Chief Kim Junsoo.
Okay.
[Let's have lunch tomorrow.]
[Okay.]
Honey!
Mother...
Mother?
Is Grandmother here?
Yeah.
Did you have a good trip, Grandmother?
Yeah.
How come you didn't even call?
Do I need to call before I come back to my own house?
We should've warmed up your room.
How are Da Jin Jung Sung?
They're eating well and growing up.
I was going to stay longer, but I missed them too much.
Why did you change your hair?
Huh?
Is it weird?
No, it's not that it's weird.
Let's go to the playground not the cafe.
Okay.
Let's sit here.
Our drama will be aired on NBS.
Oh, is it already decided?
Yeah.
We just need to discuss a few details with the chief and sign.
That's good.
He likes it because our drama is different that other law-related dramas.
It's all thanks to Samhee.
They'll let us work with an NBS director.
I'm sure we'll have better ratings since it'll be aired on a terrestrial network.
Of course.
It was too bad last time.
If it was aired on a terrestrial network,
then we could've had 5 or 6% higher ratings.
Writer Jung...
Does Attorney Jung seem happy?
He doesn't usually make a fuss over these things.
You should've come together.
Shouldn't we have a celebration?
You love having parties.
Later. We can set a date.
You're right. We shouldn't get too ahead of ourselves.
I heard when girls change their hairstyle, there's a change in their heart, too.
Let's have lunch together when Hwaom comes out.
He's at the office today.
Hyogyong is coming with Junso.
I see.
Why don't you change your hairstyle?
You kind of look down.
That's why.
Because Samhee told you to?
I was getting sick of my hair, too.
Who's he to tell you such things?
He can tell me. He's a writer.
What about a writer?
They have an artistic sense...
and maybe my hairstyle was bothering him.
Don't take his side.
Aren't we family when we work together?
Then he should just talk about work. That's crossing a boundary.
I like your old style better. It looks better on you.
My perm will be gone in about three months.
What's in is what looks good to me. Whether it's a hairstyle or fashion.
When do I ever care about what's in?
I just wanted some change.
But, why did you need some change?
Did you like my old hair that much?
You should ask me beforehand from now on.
Okay.
Did CEO Soh say anything today?
You should've talked to me first.
My life would be over by the time I discuss things with you.
When was it that I brought this up with you?
What are you going to do?
CEO Soh totally agreed with me.
It's not something to rush.
You don't want to rush forever, then?
I'm looking to lease at Cheongdam Apartments.
They have a large-sized apartment prepared.
Just listen to me this one time.
Give me some more time.
Yeah?
Hwaom, are you going to be late?
Grandma is home.
Okay, I got it.
Grandma is back.
You should think about what you did.
You changed your hairstyle without my permission.
Okay.
Good-bye.
Bye.
Go on in.
Bye.
Half of my hope has disappeared.
Even though Muom has another baby,
there's only a 50% chance that it'll be a girl.
And Hwaom is just living like that without any plans.
Should we go see a fortuneteller?
If she says anything bad,
it'll be worse than not hearing anything.
Gosh... God has no mercy on me.
Just half...
God could've given me at least one daughter.
Without a single daughter, I have seven boys including you.
I know that.
Four boys will make us dizzy when they grow older.
You never know what'll happen with old people.
Since Father passed away early, you'll have a long life.
What is life if I just have a bunch of grandsons?
Should we have a devout prayer?
For a granddaughter?
Hwaom's marriage comes before a granddaughter.
You need to bow for devout prayers, but I have bad knees.
What if they go bad?
Goodness. God doesn't give us everything.
Hwaom must be home.
I thought you'd come after midnight.
I need to go out early tomorrow.
Do you want some warm milk?
Hot cocoa.
Okay.
I was wondering what changed. It's your hairstyle.
Does it not look good on me?
I think you look much better. You have a fresh look.
Writer Jung! What are you doing here?
I'm here to eat.
I know you're here to eat.
With who?
Someone you know.
With Producer Jang?
You'll know when you see her.
I have to leave right away.
Did you have a film shoot?
Yes.
You watch my drama, right?
Didn't my acting improve?
I rarely get to watch it.
I have enough on my plate as is.
What does that mean?
We have to leave.
Please explain to her what “I have enough on my plate” means.
Okay.
Please buy me an encouragement meal next time.
Ask your writer to buy you that meal.
I want you to pay for me.
See you again.
Should I meet Yaya myself?
The bath water is ready.
Okay.
You're right on time.
I went to wash my hands.
Oh, you were already here?
15 minutes ago.
I saw Jia, too.
She had a film shoot around here.
I see.
What's the remaining loan amount on the house?
And the moving date?
Can I see the place in the evening?
Around 6?
Okay.
You're looking for a place?
Yeah.
Where?
Cheongdam Apartments.
It's very expensive there. They don't have small sizes.
What size are you looking for?
Aren't you having lunch?
I wanted to go with you.
I'm not eating today.
Why?
Because I had a big breakfast.
You must always be hungry at your age.
I'm passed that stage.
I'm a middle-aged man.
If you're middle-aged, then am I an old bachelor?
Yes, you are.
Hello?
Ah, yes. Hello, Chief.
I heard you have a slot at NBS.
Yes.
You must be happy.
It's a lot of pressure. It must be a success.
You have good writing skills.
It looks much better. What did the family say?
They like it.
I'm going to specify that it was co-written.
Are you going to use your real name?
Me?
Yes.
No way. I don't even write much.
You make my writing smoother.
Either way.
I like my life without any attention, too.
All right, then.
I heard that Fog Palace is getting a new director.
I saw it on the news.
What do you think about that?
They should just proceed without changing.
Everyone is about the same.
I guess the director keeps changing the script.
Then they should talk to each other.
What would you do if talking about it doesn't change anything?
If you ever meet a director like that.
It could be this time, too.
If it was my personal matter, then I could give up,
but the drama is for the viewers.
I'd find a possible way without changing the director.
When you were studying for the bar exam...
Did you by any chance study at a temple?
No. Why?
It seems like you studied the ways of people.
I think sometimes that you might have.
He has such a big heart.
I like the lunchboxes from hotels but it has so much food.
I have to eat it twice.
Yes. I think it's enough for men.
Isn't Junso so cute?
He's so cute.
Which amusement park is nice?
I guess Yongin Land.
You're going?
I want to take Junso.
Do you want a grandchild?
He's my grandchild.
Aren't you the one who actually needs a pen name?
Everyone already knows.
I should've changed it last time.
Who gave you your name?
My grandfather.
What three happiness characters are included in your name?
Health, success, and to find a good partner.
You have the first two and you just need to find a good partner now.
I'm sure it'll happen for you.
You're just saying that.
No one can guarantee a happy marriage.
I almost married someone before.
I heard.
That's why I bring this up, Yaya.
What do you think about part co-worker, part friend,
and part-partner type of relationship?
You can think of me as a man or as a friend.
Anyway, something like a best friend.
I'm not sure what you mean.
To make it easier, I want to be closer to you than now.
What are you going to do with Hwaom?
Do you have a specific plan?
I don't have a plan for myself.
If Hwaom chooses you, then he'll disappoint his parents.
And if he wants to please his parents, then he has to give up on you.
What do you think?
Honestly, I don't have an answer.
If you don't have an answer, then you should end things.
I think we can be in a good and comfortable relationship...
without tying each other down.
I never used to trust women.
But my thoughts changed after getting to know you.
I think we can be best friends.
Thank you, but...
You're rejecting me?
Life is short but long.
There's no need to rush anything.
Don't feel pressured.
Hello?
I'm at the office, but you're not here. They said you went out for lunch.
When are you coming back? I miss you.
I'm going to a studio of an artist with a collector.
He's here. Talk to you later!
Okay.
You're here?
Why do you keep showing interest in Yaya?
I told you not to do that.
Why did you tell her to change her hairstyle?
Who are you to say such a thing?
I thought about it after I talked to you on Sunday.
Before she didn't mean much to me.
Or maybe I just didn't realize it.
I have an interest in Yaya.
What?
What are you trying to do?
What about you?
Your family will never accept Yaya.
So what are you going to do?
It's none of your business.
You shouldn't care about how I feel either.
It's my business.
I confessed my feelings to her and was rejected. Right away!
Are you in your right mind?
I'm trying to keep calm and think about my feelings.
To see if it's out of impulse.
Find yourself a new assistant writer.
If it's not Yaya, I'm going to work alone.
After writing just one drama,
are you growing romantic feelings with just anyone?
Don't call her from now on.
Tell me if you need to contact her.
Let's not make things more complicated than they are.
Are you here?
Yeah.
Are you going to Ilsan Center together?
No.
Do you want this plum drink?
No, thanks.
Is he not feeling well?
No.
Did something go wrong at NBS?
No.
Everything worked out fine.
Strawberry juice, please.
Me, too.
That Samhee... What did he say?
He told me that he confessed to you and got rejected.
It wasn't much of a confession.
You know how he is.
I told him to find a new assistant writer.
Don't answer his calls or texts.
Is that necessary?
I think he'll continue to do this.
No way. He's not the obsessive type.
Tell me honesty.
Do you have any interest in Samhee?
No, I never thought about him in that way.
I think he's gone mad after writing a melodrama.
Don't give him any room.
This would've never happened if we just got married.
Let's get married.
Huh?
Think about it from my perspective.
I'm thinking about it from your perspective.
If I were you, I'd just listen to me.
It's not your responsibility and it's not your fault.
I'm the one who's obsessing over you.
I'm going to see the new place at 6. Cheongdam Apartments.
Do you want me to go alone?
We can go together.
There should be one or two times in life when you must go with your gut instinct.
I'm going to make it happen, so you just stay by my side.
