[Episode 146]
Did you sleep well last night?
Yes.
Mother, don't come out to the kitchen from tomorrow.
Sister-in-law and I will take care of breakfast from now on
Will that be okay?
Yes.
She's right. You don't need so many people in the kitchen.
You'd just get in each other's way.
Okay.
Once upon a time, a king had all his men for a party, but the light went out.
Then one of the king's men hugged the king's mistress.
So the mistress cut off the man's string from his hat...
and told the king she'd been harassed.
She told him she cut off the string from his hat and asked the king to punish him.
What do you think the man did?
Since it was dark, maybe he ran away?
He'd get caught if he ran away.
Since the missing person would be the suspect.
Men are always the same.
Oh, isn't that the story, Father?
Every man cut off their hat string before the light turned back on.
Right!
So, all the men cut off their own hat strings to help their fellow men.
Men are all the same.
You know that story, right?
It's the story of King Zhuang from the Chu Dynasty.
Tell us more about it.
A war broke out two years after that incident,
and one warrior risked his life and fought so bravely.
The king called him and praised him for the victory,
and when asked who he was, the warrior answered:
'My lord, I'm the man who lost my hat string two years ago.'
Oh....
And the king replied,
'I can't risk the life of my warriors over the wrath of one of my mistresses.'
The king must've been very wise.
I want you to always be good to your subordinates.
They'd want to work hard when you respect and care for them.
And they'll feel more connected to the company.
That's true.
Okay.
Don't fire people over small mistakes.
Nobody can be perfect.
Give them chances to become better employees.
He's right. Everyone has families to take care of.
You can't cut off their jobs as if it's nothing.
You have to hire good people from the very beginning.
Okay.
Your soup is getting cold.
Yeah.
But how do we know who's a good person?
A lot can be told by one's face.
You'll see the goodness of the heart from one's face.
Hiring the right people is the most important thing in companies.
Even in TV dramas...
You need the perfect cast to create a good drama.
Samhee's drama has been delayed to next year?
Yes.
It's for the better.
He has more time to prepare now.
You must've had quite a dream last night.
You were calling out for Dallan.
Oh, gosh...
You're just...
I'm just what?
In front of Jia?
If it wasn't for Yaya's wedding, I would've moved out long ago.
Yaya is so smart.
She loved reading when she was little, she must've read lots of books.
Put the rest of the flowers in here.
Okay.
A mother must be wise to raise her children properly.
Right.
I didn't expect CEO Soh to send wedding gift food to us like that.
I know.
It wouldn't have been easy to do so.
But Yaya was her daughter-in-law.
Yeah.
Not only did she let her get married, but even prepared wedding gift food.
She's such a classy lady.
That's why you can't judge a book by its cover.
I know.
She must think of Yaya as her own daughter.
Yaya must've been so good to her.
I know.
Yeah.
As long as you have a good heart, you can survive in any situation.
I think it's so true.
I guess you can take it easy from tomorrow.
Even if she has a nanny to help out, she still has many things to do as a mom.
What were you doing?
I was with the baby boys.
They were smiling at me.
They have such good personalities.
You can tell one's personality from a young age.
They must take after their parents.
Did you learn how to arrange flowers?
I just saw how Mother doing it.
You can take classes and learn if you want to.
Okay.
You know what?
Yes?
Go ahead, tell us.
Remember how I told you before about my dream just before I married Nadan?
Do you remember?
Oh, the dream about your car accident?
About the windows breaking and blood everywhere?
Yes.
That's such a strange dream.
You had a clear vision in that dream.
Sometimes dreams aren't accurate.
To tell you the truth, the person who was sitting in the car
...wasn't Nadan. It was Hwaom.
Really?
Yes.
Then, how come you didn't tell us the truth?
I thought it was a dream about something terrible happening to Hwaom.
And after hearing you translate the dream, I couldn't bring myself to tell you.
Because it might've sounded like I made it all up.
You should've told us the truth.
I know.
If you had...
Well, you ended up marrying Hwaom,
...but you wouldn't have gone through what you did.
You were meant to be together with Hwaom.
A match made in heaven!
We would've never accused you of making up such a dream.
But back then, everything was different.
Don't worry about anything.
You fool...
It's your first time here, right?
Yes, my friend recommended this place.
I'll start now.
All right.
Long time no see.
It's me, Jia's mom.
Why do I have to bump into her here?
Hi.
You're taking care of your skin for Jo Janghun?
Why didn't she tell us the truth about her dream sooner?
I know.
If she had, we would've stopped her from marrying Nadan...
and had her marry Hwaom right away.
That was such a clear dream.
We have nothing to worry about now.
I know.
They'll have kids and live happily ever after.
It'll be even more wonderful if that happened.
Within this year?
Yeah.
Come in.
I'll be out for a walk.
Don't go up any mountains.
I won't.
Janghun was murmuring in his sleep last night.
'Dallan.'
He must've missed you so much.
You should meet him. I don't care anymore.
You're just unbelievable.
You should act your age.
What did I do so wrong?
How dare she pick a fight with me?
What was that stunt you pulled at my daughter's house?
Don't you know it's embarrassing for you, too?
Well, I'm not the one who should be embarrassed.
I asked them whether I was overreacting.
And they confirmed to me that I wasn't overreacting.
You shouldn't make a mess as you leave.
Well, I didn't leave yet.
Either way...
You should leave him quietly. Just like the lyrics...
Should I cause a ruckus? See how you would like that?
Be my guest.
You're the only one who would be humiliated.
That's not going to bring him back.
You think you're so classy?
Your daughter is so humiliated because of you.
I didn't do anything wrong.
I hope you oldies have a happy life together.
Who are you calling oldies?
Don't you even look in the mirror?
What time do you have to leave?
The funeral is at 7 o'clock.
You can leave at around 6:20 and wake up at least at 6.
I will wake up around 5:30 to make you simple breakfast.
What are you going to cook for me?
Bread? Rice?
There's some bread in the fridge.
I can eat on my way there.
That's not good enough.
I told you you're my king.
It's so funny.
When I'm with your parents, I automatically talk to you with respect.
Should I do the same to you?
No, thanks.
When are you going to draw my portrait?
Your portrait?
After you get a little older.
You don't look like a married man yet.
Should I sign a contract for our own little place?
I don't need our own place.
Why not?
This room is our own little place.
But it'll feel different to have a house of our own.
Let me try it for a few months.
All right.
Let's sleep, honey.
Let me walk with my own feet!
When will you become a fat chicken?
You want me to become a fat chicken?
Yeah.
Come here!
But I can't get married any time soon.
I'll do it three years later.
Why?
Let's start dating if you're confident...
...you won't change your mind for three years.
It'll be my loss if I ever change my mind.
I'll be 29-years-old in three years.
It'd be a good age to get married.
It'd be a good age for you, but I'd be a bit too old.
You have a baby face, so it's okay.
He's so attractive...
Janghun called out my name in his sleep?
She wouldn't be lying about something like that...
Maybe my first love will finally come true...
Although it was just a crush I had on him...
Aren't you going to sleep?
Go ahead first.
You can read your book tomorrow.
Aren't I more important than a book?
What time is it?
Time for ladies to powder their noses.
Corny, huh?
It's an old, silly joke.
It's 6:20.
I love having two daughters-in-law.
You're finally freed from your kitchen?
Freed from making breakfast.
Good job, honey.
Where's my reward?
What would you like?
Want a necklace? You and our daughters-in-law?
Why are you including them?
I'm the one who worked my tail off.
Well, I'm their father-in-law.
I don't care if you are.
I should always be your priority.
Are you jealous of your daughters-in-law?
Jealous? Why, of course I am.
If you're too good to them from the beginning,
they'll start taking you for granted.
All right.
I left early so that you could sleep more, my princess.
Cook me something yummy tonight.
Please watch the children.
Okay.
Sorry.
Hwaom set the alarm late.
It's all right.
Make the rice first.
We need special rice for Grandmother and Father starting today.
Okay.
Peel chestnuts, too.
Yeah.
Wash the rice first, then you can peel chestnuts.
While the rice soaks in.
All right.
Put a little less than a cup.
There'll be two chestnuts each.
Dip your hand in to measure it.
Of course I will.
Take some out.
You don't need this much water for this rice.
Take out about 3 spoonfuls of water.
3 spoons exactly.
But don't we need extra water for the chestnuts?
I'm very accurate with this.
Put in the chestnuts, too.
Good morning, Mother.
Are the two cooking breakfast?
Yes.
Are you going to make steamed eggs?
Yes.
Set the table.
Okay.
No.
You should watch the rice.
It'll boil over if you don't keep your eyes on it.
You have to cook rice with care.
If it boils over, set it to mid heat.
Then, let it cook at the lowest heat.
I know that myself.
It's boiling. Turn down the fire.
Father doesn't like his rice watery.
If I turn down the heat, it'll get too watery.
I know what I'm doing.
Turn it off in five minutes, and let it simmer for five more.
Put this on and look like a gentleman.
Breakfast is ready.
Okay.
What's with the hot stone pot rice?
It's special rice.
It's very hot, so take some out to a separate plate.
We couldn't make yours, Mother.
We had to use the stove for other dishes.
It's fine.
I don't even like hot rice.
It looks so yummy.
Take some out and pour in some water.
Sure.
Wow, this is a feast!
Good job, both of you.
Can you make me that tomorrow morning?
What?
Soft tofu stew.
Sure.
The rice is so delicious.
It's really soft.
But put in a little less water from tomorrow.
It's a bit too watery for me.
Yes.
They're better than I am.
You did this for years and years.
Think about that.
Well, you did the same, Mother.
How come you didn't go to the funeral?
I didn't have to go since Hwaom went.
Where did you get that puppy?
You bathed her, right?
I did.
Where did you get her?
From an animal shelter.
I adopted her yesterday.
How can anyone abandon such a beautiful puppy?
They said she must've been abandoned because she's a mixed breed.
Poor thing...
Are you going to keep her?
If you don't want her yourself, I will.
Why wouldn't I want her?
Well, she's not like a purebred dog.
And I didn't pay money for her.
Who cares about the breed?
I got her because I thought you might be lonely after your parents got divorced.
I could've gotten a purebred dog,
but I thought it'd be more meaningful to adopt a dog from a shelter.
You're right.
I was actually thinking about adopting a dog.
We have a lot in common.
She's so adorable!
If we should break up,
the one who initiates the breakup has to give her up.
If you get sick of me, that is.
We didn't start dating, but you're already thinking about breaking up with me?
Well, you never know how things could change...
It's not like I have a very good background.
You might get attracted to a better man.
What's so bad about your background?
My parents are getting divorced, too.
I know myself very well, and I know I can't sweet-talk well like other men.
You might get sick of me and leave me.
Well, I'm really good at sweet-talking.
I was born to sweet-talk, and I love doing it everyday.
That's a funny thing to say.
She doesn't have a name, right?
What should we name her?
Let's take one character from our names and combine it.
Samji.
Ssamji!
That's cute. Ssamji.
Ssamji!
Oh, how adorable!
I'll give her to you after potty training her.
Have you ever raised a dog before?
For a little while when I was young.
I got her vaccinated, too.
Don't you have to tell your parents about us?
You don't want them to read about us later in the press...
You don't want to?
No, it's not that. I will.
What's up with that puppy?
I adopted her.
I love dogs.
Name one thing you don't love.
The name is Ssamji.
Ssamji!
How much are you worth?
You're so materialistic.
Hello?
This is Sa Jinhong.
It's been a long time.
I just returned from Monaco.
You're so lucky!
With whom?
Kim Choyoung and Park Dongsoo. We were escorting Painter Lee Jongmin.
Did you do lots of painting there?
It was just a vacation.
I just took lots of pictures with my eyes and my camera.
That's good enough.
It's been over ten years since I was last in Monaco.
I'd like to meet you next week.
I know a great Thai restaurant.
Do they serve good Poo Phat Pong Curry?
Yes.
Where is it?
It's a secret.
When you get in your car, I'll text you the address.
All right.
How's Tuesday night?
That's fine.
Would you like 6 or 7 o'clock?
There will be too much traffic at 7.
Right. Let's make it 6, then.
Sure.
Goodbye.
Bye.
So, this is how it all begins...
Hello, ma'am.
Come on in.
Dad will be home a bit later.
Would you like some juice better than iced coffee?
Coffee is good for me.
Mom, I'll have some juice.
Okay.
Hello, Dad?
Oh...Okay.
Dad's friend accidentally broke a bone, so he'll be home late.
Do you speak informally to your father?
Daughters tend to do that.
Oh, gosh...
Don't pluck the grey hairs.
You know how precious every strand of hair is when you get to my age?
Dye your hair instead.
I was so shocked today.
Why?
I went to a sauna and a 40 something guy thought we were the same age.
No way...
He probably needs glasses.
Yeah.
Hair tells a lot about your age.
That's true.
I like grey hair on a man.
It's better to look younger.
Dye your hair.
Should I do it for you?
Grey hair will grow again.
What if I become bald by dying my hair so much?
No way!
You caressing my hair makes me sleepy.
What cosmetics do you use?
Your skin is just soft and perfect.
I'll order one for you.
It's nothing expensive.
You have to buy cosmetics according to your age.
Just because it's good on her doesn't mean it'll be good on you, Mom.
Is that so?
Jia and I are dating and we're thinking of getting married later.
Married?
Yes.
But she's just gaining recognition as an actress.
We're thinking of getting married in about three years.
If word spreads about you two, she might have a hard time finding work.
I don't care.
My life is way more important than my work.
Why does it have to be Jia?
Please speak freely.
I really wonder...
I feel happy when I'm with her.
Me, too.
And I want to be good to her.
That's the reason.
We don't want the public knowing, so we're going to date at home.
Ssamji, want some chicken?
It's a special treat for you.
Is it yummy?
Shouldn't you have asked him to stay for dinner?
There's nothing to eat at home.
You should've told me he was coming earlier.
Rethink this matter.
Why should I?
He's not the type to make a girl happy.
Well, I'm very happy. Just by looking at him.
It's because he's giving you work.
He doesn't even have parents, only his older sister...
Yaya grew up without parents, but she's better than me, and mature.
I'd have no parents-in-law to worry about.
He's perfect for me.
What if he doesn't get anymore projects after a few more dramas?
How do you know his work will be successful?
He can open up a law firm, then.
Or he can go back to other law firms.
Why would you settle for him?
You can marry someone much better than him.
I'm going to marry someone I love like Yaya.
I don't need any conditions in a spouse.
Can't you be smart about this?
Yaya is a special case.
This is my life.
I make my own decisions.
So she's looking down on me, too.
How dare she?
Fine, suit yourself. It's your life.
Your phone is ringing. Want me to bring it?
No.
Yaya.
Yes?
When we saw CEO Soh sending us the wedding gift food, we were so touched.
I mean, it's not something that's simple.
Yeah.
She must think of you as her daughter.
As if her own daughter is getting married...
Even if she gets a divorce, make sure you go see her often.
That's the proper thing to do.
Okay.
She's right.
Think of her as your own mother. Wouldn't that be nice?
You can depend on her.
You like her, don't you?
I can't keep lying to them...
You know...
Yeah?
