Episode 5
You expect me to accept a car?
Forget it.
I can't accept it.
- Dong-joon. - I know why you're doing this.
I know that you're thankful.
I'm happy everything went so well.
But let's leave it at that.
Yea?
Then throw it away.
Hyun-ji.
Hyun-ji! Hyun-ji!
Hyun-ji.
You watch.
You'll drive right back to me in that car.
Can't you sleep?
It's nothing.
Should I warm you some milk?
Hmm?
Honey.
Yea.
I was curious.
How would you manage if you were left alone without me?
What?
Why would I be left alone?
I mean, I might have to go somewhere, or I could get sick.
Why would you get sick?
Don't say things like that. Knock on wood, hurry.
Then what if we grow old and I go first?
I'll be just fine. I can feed myself, and I have plenty of friends.
I'll be alright alone.
Right?
You're stronger than you look, right?
Of course.
And I do great as the leader of the neighborhood association.
They tell me that I'm doing a great job all the time.
You didn't know that your wife is so capable?
Don't worry about not making partner.
I like it just the way things are.
Go to sleep.
Yea...
I can't remember the last time we shared a nice meal together.
How did he manage to take care of it so quickly for you?
I told you that he looked smart.
He seemed calm and collected.
Ever since he was in school, he stood out.
He would play hard, but would always get his work done.
I rarely see you praising others.
You would like him if you ever saw him as well.
He's perfect.
Why would I ever need to meet with him?
I was considering inviting him over for dinner.
Mr. Im?
We have to show him our gratitude.
Why don't we meet with him at the hotel instead?
That would be fine.
You meet with him and handle it.
I want to invite him here.
Your father doesn't like strangers coming here.
I know, but I don't feel like going to public places.
Can't you understand?
Alright, go ahead.
Is that okay with you?
I guess I'll meet with him after all.
I'm free tomorrow night.
Alright.
I'll invite him.
What does he like to eat?
He likes anything.
Still, he must have preferences.
He's not coming here for the food.
Don't you expect me to care for your guest?
Does he prefer meat or fish?
He may refuse the invitation.
I thought you already talked to him?
Why would he refuse?
Hyun-ji.
You're not...
I'm late.
I have to go out.
You're not interested in Mr. Im, are you?
- It's not like that. - Talk to me.
I said it's not like that.
The guy who lives across from us sells vegetables near my mom's store.
He watched over our store while Ji-eun was having her baby.
I thought he was some crazy weirdo,
but I think he's trying to grow cabbages to make kimchi.
I was thinking about sending him some food this morning.
I couldn't even thank him yesterday.
Yea... you should.
He's still feeling down...
This isn't mine, so I should return it.
This should be enough for gratitude.
Let's go.
- Forget it. - Bro!
- Give me some more time, please? - Let's go.
What's your problem?
Let's talk. Hoon has to go to school.
Talk? Talk about what?
I talked, pleaded, and begged to get this kimchi factory going!
I give up now.
Both hands up. I surrender.
- Hoon, let's go. - Where are we going?
I'll die of frustration if we stay here any longer.
We go anywhere but here.
Trust your father.
I apologize! Bro, don't do this.
You know how I feel.
I don't.
I don't know anymore.
So let's end things here.
The end!
Let's go Hoon.
Follow me.
Go, go.
Bro!
Let's go, go.
Huh? It's good to see you.
How are you?
No, you can't go.
No!
Do you want me to smack you?
Let's not take it there. Move.
- Move. - No, no.
Over my dead body!
I won't move.
- Move, I say! - No.
- Stop that. - What's the matter with you two?
Move!
Are you alright?
What are you doing in front of this child?
This is community space for dozens of households.
Why the commotion so early in the morning?
I'm sorry.
Are you hurt?
You must be Hoon's father.
How can you talk about smacking people in front of your son?
No, it's not that.
It's not what?
Don't you feel ashamed in front of your child?
Why are you showing him violence instead of taking him to school?
I didn't even eat any breakfast.
Let's go inside.
I'll fix you breakfast. Go inside.
I made all of this for you this morning.
Now you two can clean it all up!
Proceed!
Is it that good?
You'll get indigestion, slow down.
Who's this?
House from across!
So now we have extra rice?
You're using brother's paycheck to feed the house next door now?
Does brother know about this?
The kid is listening.
I want him to listen.
Hey, that's enough!
No, Hoon.
- No, Hoon. Keep eating. - Ha-eun!
Soo-jin, he has to go to school soon.
I don't like it.
Leave it, I'll do it.
That lady is scary.
She's the neighborhood association leader.
Really? Leader...
So you're staying, right?
Right?
I can't believe I'm staying.
Leave it, I'll do it.
Forget it, I want to do it.
Just... Then do it.
The director is running late.
Really?
I couldn't get a hold of her.
Did you get a call from her?
Yes.
If I wanted you to return it, I never would have given it to you.
Yes, this is Se-chan Jang.
Who is this?
Ah, yes. Of course I remember.
How can I help you?
Are you feeling injured after the accident?
Ah, yes.
My wife?
Thanks to you, we now have a beautiful baby girl.
She's at the One Heart Hospital.
But why do you ask?
Hello.
Hello?
What does the daughter of the Tae-gang group want?
Daughter of the Tae-gang group!
Save.
The One Heart Hospital.
You were here?
Yea, Mom.
She's sleeping endlessly.
She had it rough with labor pains...
She should get up and breastfeed her baby.
I'm going to see her non-stop at home, aren't I?
You don't even know when you're headed home!
Then should I bring the baby here?
Stop bothering me.
Ji-eun Yoo, here are your release papers.
Release papers?
My sister gave birth only yesterday.
Didn't the mother request to be released?
Yes, you're right. Thank you.
Hey.
Why would you be released so early?
Think about your body and stop making us worry about you.
No one's waiting for you at home.
We have to save money.
The hospital bill isn't going to fall from the sky.
This is not the time.
Don't do this. Stay for one more day.
Forget it, pack my things.
We have to prepare. I didn't even cook anything at home.
We'll make something when we get there.
There's no convincing her. Pack her things.
Then wait! Let me call my husband.
Don't call him. We'll take a taxi.
We have a child, Mom.
I'll ask if he can come.
Yea, hello?
Yea. I'm headed back to the firm.
Why?
About where are you?
Then you're close by.
Can you come by?
She's being released today.
Released?
Right, the baby's there, so...
Alright then. I'll be there soon.
Oh well.
I've arrived.
Come down.
That car looks good on you.
I went to see you but I couldn't get a hold of you.
I didn't know you were here.
Why didn't you get your phone?
Well, we're here now.
Let's go up together.
What?
He's here. Let's go, hurry.
Don't leave anything behind.
I got everything here. Let's go.
- Let's go get the baby. - Lean on me.
Be careful.
I felt bad because of the accident.
Don't do this.
Don't do what?
I came here to congratulate her.
I don't know why, but I keep feeling guilty despite doing nothing wrong.
It's making me uncomfortable.
Dong-joon.
I'd like it if you'd leave now.
If you're not going with me, I'll go up alone.
Why are you doing this!
What a nice looking forehead!
Let's go home now.
Are you okay to walk?
I'm okay with everything but my husband!
Goodness! Why did you dress like that to give birth!
You must be freezing!
These were my best clothes, there!
If you're not guilty, you wouldn't feel any guilt.
Want me to tell you why you're feeling guilty?
Here.
Take the car and go.
Dong-joon!
Let's go.
Go!
What are you doing?
I'll call you later.
Honey!
Yea, Honey.
What's with the flowers?
Huh?
Oh, this!
Congratulations.
Thank you.
I got flowers from my brother-in-law!
Look at the child.
Yes, she's pretty.
Isn't she adorable?
Where's your car?
Huh?
We're taking this car.
I borrowed the firm's car.
Really?
My baby is good luck, it seems.
I get to leave in such a nice car.
Get in. Mother, get inside.
- Ji-eun, be careful. - Honk, honk! Let's ride this nice car.
Really?
The car was that nice?
Why didn't he come on inside?
He's busy. He just dropped us off.
I can't believe this.
She's like a doll that blinks.
I could spend the entire day looking at her.
Oww...
Didn't you leave the store unattended?
I can hear if someone comes... Don't worry.
Can't you take a hint?
She wants you to tend to the store.
Let me see my child for a while longer.
Goodness...
Of course he'd want to spend time with her. Leave him be...
Go on inside... Go ahead.
Maybe I should cook before I go.
Da-yool will be home soon.
I have everything I need. I can do it.
Alright.
Mom, about Ji-eun...
Give her a break now that the baby's here?
Yea.
I'm the mother.
You should know how a mother feels.
Don't worry and go.
Bye now.
Bye, Mom.
Yea, be careful.
Don't run.
Why is she always running?
Any radish here?
Did you call for Radish?
I'm Radish.
What?
My boss nicknamed me 'Radish.'
That's funny.
Okay, well, do you sell any radishes, I need 2 batches.
Yes we do.
Oh my!
These came this morning.
Perfect to make kimchi with.
Yes, they look tasty.
We were loud this morning, weren't we?
Don't sweat it, it happens to all of us.
I'm sorry if I went too far.
Did you work things out?
Thanks to you.
Sorry about all of the food you prepared for us.
All of that went to waste!
I had just prepared it. Do you have any idea how good it tasted?
How much for the radishes?
About that...
Here. Hold this.
This is for the omelet.
These are for the potatoes.
Enjoy.
You're giving these to me?
Yes.
Oh my.
You don't have to...
Thank you! Oh my.
Thank you. I'll enjoy these.
Yes, yes.
Wow, jackpot!
Goodbye!
That lady lives across from you?
How can you give those away for free?
And what's the matter with her?
How can that lady just accept it?
Where were we?
I don't know.
What are you doing?
I'll call you later.
Honey!
Yea, Honey.
Are you comfortable?
Want to stretch out?
Alright. Let's stretch.
Daughter of the Tae-gang Group?
Hello?
Isn't this Se-chan Jang's number?
I'm his wife.
Well, I was hoping to get in contact with you.
This is Hyun-ji Park.
What business do you have with me?
If I ordered some rice cakes, can I have it delivered tomorrow?
Rice-cakes?
Of course.
We have a very important guest.
Please send something fitting for a party.
Don't worry about the cost, and prepare it as you see fit.
I understand.
I'll make sure it looks good and tastes great.
Oh, and I would like your sister to make the delivery.
I want it to be presented well.
Why my sister?
I should be the one to go.
How else can I see a wealthy person's home?
Right?
[Hyun-ji Park]
Yea, I've been meaning to call you.
This is Hyun-ji's mother.
Ah, yes.
Hello.
I was hoping to invite you over to our home tomorrow night?
Tomorrow?
It's a family dinner, so it's nothing special.
Is he coming?
Thank you for accepting.
Alright, see you then.
He's coming, right?
Tell me.
Why did you have me ask him?
What do you mean why?
I thought it would be better if you formally invited him.
That person isn't anything more than your lawyer, is he?
I understand how you must have depended on him.
But no more.
That's the limit.
It's a family dinner, so it's nothing special.
Thank you for accepting.
Great.
Ferment nicely guys.
Let's go!
I'm home.
Huh? You're early!
Why are you making kimchi now?
Your sister can't eat without any radish kimchi.
Want to try some?
No, I'm fine.
Finish up here and come.
Alright.
I have an important meeting tomorrow night.
Where? Who are you meeting?
Um...
My old classmates...
That's great!
You have the new suit, Honey! You can wear that.
What perfect timing!
Life is all about timing.
A great suit really shines!
On days like this I want to hold your arm and march around the neighborhood.
Tell everyone that this is my husband.
Wait, wait.
Have a good day.
You'll be late?
I think so.
Don't wait, and go to sleep.
Alright.
You don't have to feel inadequate in front of your friends.
I never did.
Really?
Of course.
Bye now.
Be safe!
Yea.
Look at this, Mother.
She's insisting on going right now!
Have you lost your mind?
How can you carry these all the way there?
I want to see how the wealthy live.
I'll go and tell you all about it.
You both go back inside.
Where's the address?
Mom.
You'll regret it later if you move so soon after birth.
Enough of this, and give me the address.
Mom, you can't go.
They asked for Sis to deliver it.
Your sister?
Da-yool's mother?
Yes.
That's odd.
I don't know what to do anymore.
It's too difficult.
When I think it's all over, something bigger erupts.
I can't even breathe.
I think I'm going to die.
You're the only one I can depend on.
Come now, please.
Dong-joon?
I'm downstairs.
Come down.
Who is it?
Ah, yes. How are you?
The rice cakes are here. The rice cakes.
I knew you would cone.
How can I refuse her invitation?
I won't bite if you admit that you wanted to come.
Open the door for me?
It's only one dinner.
Oh, I'll do it... Are you alright?
Allow me.
Oh my goodness...
This is nice work!
Which store have you come from?
You probably never heard of us.
We have a small store in the market.
How did Hyun-ji find out about such a small place?
Please taste the seasoning on this.
It's not right?
Yes. I think something is missing.
I wonder what's missing.
May I try?
Would you?
Yes...
Thank you.
You're missing shrimp paste.
About a teaspoon would do.
Yes, Madam.
We have similar tastes.
I guess so...
Maybe it's another potential husband?
They're putting a lot of effort into this.
She'll hear you!
Hurry up with that.
I'll be on my way.
Goodbye, be careful.
Yes.
This is Dong-joon Im, my lawyer.
How are you?
Welcome.
I've heard what you've done for my daughter.
Not at all.
Thank you for your invitation.
I wanted to introduce him earlier, but it didn't work out.
Are you here from the rice-cake store?
Are you leaving?
This is the way out.
[Subtitles provided by MBC]
How do you really feel?
Did you really come here just to share a meal?
I wanted to see if it was worth wagering my life for.
Do you know him?
No, not really.
I have something to ask of you.
Take the opportunity. You can do it.
You can't do that alone!
It's our affair, so stay out of it.
Wait one moment!
