[Episode 30]
[Our Kimchi Garden]
I want you to do something that you enjoy.
Don't be afraid. I wish that you'll regain your happiness.
Ha-eun.
So, all I have to do is make our kimchi?
Our kimchi... Let's call it “Our Kimchi Garden."
Thank you. Thank you so much, Ha-eun.
I thought my kimchi garden was no longer of any use.
And I thought I was of no use anymore as well.
But I can see now that's not true. I can start anew from here.
I want to protect the space that you like.
You once told me that coming here to look at your kimchi pots made you happy.
That mindset is all I need. We can make things happen with that mindset.
Yes. I'll give it a try.
Thank you very much.
I'm the one who's thankful. Thank you, Ha-eun.
Are you feeling better now?
Yes, I'm fine. I'm all better now. Nothing's wrong with me.
Here, enjoy.
I'm sorry that I haven't been giving you extra attention.
It's tasty.
Maybe it's because I feel good right now. It tastes extra good today.
I won't forget how they've accepted Da-yool.
They could have rejected her.
I think I know why they changed their mind.
We should be extra good to your folks.
Are you okay with moving into our home?
It's our home now.
Stop setting boundaries.
You're right. It's our home. I forgot about that.
I won't let what happened yesterday occur ever again.
I think I'm going to meet with Da-yool's mother to end this once and for all.
I told you I don't want you to meet with her.
I've already talked to her and ended it. You don't have to contact her ever again.
Ended it? When?
Da-yool Im. July 14th, 2008.
She has atopic symptoms...
That's better than a contract, right?
She brought this to you?
It's a relief. I'm happy that this was taken care of before our wedding.
Today's a very special day for us. Congratulations.
I love you.
I love you more.
Let's eat. Try some of this.
I packed you some porridge because you were ill.
Why did you come all the way here with me?
It's my duty to escort our very own kimchi-master to her home.
Kimchi-master..?
You told me that you wouldn't put me on the spot.
Go on home. I'll go inside now.
I'm going inside with you.
We should tell them the good news.
Hello!
Oh my, welcome.
I delivered the letter you told me to deliver to Ha-eun.
Thank you very much. I'll need a rice cake tomorrow morning. Sweet rice cake.
I know that it's last minute, but can I place the order?
Are you celebrating something?
Yes, in fact we are. I finally found the person I was looking for.
I see! I'll prepare the cake first thing by tomorrow morning.
Da-yool, hang in there.
I hope you're growing healthy.
I'm going to work hard too.
I'm going to work hard for you.
I miss you, my daughter.
What are you doing here so early?
What brings you here at this hour?
Father, Mother. I came by to pay my respects.
Thank you for doing a great job raising your daughter.
You won't have to worry about her ever again.
I promise to love her and live our lives to the fullest.
Aren't you going to accept it, Mother?
Thank you, Mother!
Thank you, Father!
You should say something since you've received beautiful flowers.
It's so sudden...
Come inside. Join us for breakfast.
Kimchi? You? Is that why the veggie man came barging in here?
I don't know about that guy.
Are you sure that you looked into him?
There's no need for that! He's more dependable than a cashier's check.
You never know, Mother. You can't know for sure the intentions of a stranger.
And I thought you were getting ripped off because you didn't know any better!
He's only worried about Sis, Mom!
But what does he need you for? Are you going to be making kimchi all day long?
I don't know what to expect yet. I'll let you know when I return.
How much is he paying you?
Yea, that's the most important thing. What's your salary going to look like?
I didn't ask about that yet.
No, that won't do! What if he makes you work for nothing?
I'll accept whatever he gives me. I'm just happy that I'm employed.
This won't do. I think I should tag along and check for myself.
Why don't you just eat your food? I have a backlog of orders today!
Goodness!
You should rest for one more day. We've finished cleaning the factory, so rest.
There's nothing wrong with me. I'm all better now.
Already? What kind of a illness comes and goes like that?
I'll leave first. Send Hoon to school, and take your time.
Hey!
Thank you for the meal, Mother.
I think I'm going to gain weight once I get married.
Me too... I don't know the last time I've enjoyed such a meal.
Are we going to eat together like this from now on?
Where do you want to go for your honeymoon?
With Da-yool and the baby coming soon, we're planning to spend a night in a hotel.
You won't regret it later?
Once the baby's born, I'll take her to someplace nice.
Make sure you give me a lengthy vacation time. It's going to be our first vacation.
They're coming with us, what are you talking about?
Please come with us. Father, Mother.
It looks like the two of you have a new son.
As hard as it was to make it this far, I expect you to have a great life together.
Yes, Father. I won't let you down.
What's the occasion today?
It's not the company's anniversary, and your birthday has already passed.
It's more important than the company anniversary.
What?
My life is going to take a turn for the better, starting today.
Good morning! What's all of this? Is it someone's birthday today?
Ha-neul, tell Radish to come on inside.
Bro, wait right here. I'll go and bring the guest of honor.
Guest of honor?
How do you do? How are you, Ha-eun?
Welcome. I heard that you've hired my daughter?
I'm so thankful.
I wasn't going to acceptyour money for this, but my son-in-law, he...
Anyways, you have an eye for talent when it comes to making kimchi.
Mom.
She used to skip her classes on the days she would help me make the kimchi.
Really? She would skip her classes for it?
Because I tasted it, but...
Don't even mention it.
Put this in, take that out... as long as I listened to her, the kimchi was tasty.
And I don't know about anything else,
but I can vouch for her sense of responsibility and persistence.
She won't be a hindrance.
Mom, stop it.
Thank you very much. I'll take good care of her as we work together.
Let's go, Ha-eun. Everyone is waiting.
For me?
- Yes. - Who is?
The cake looks great. It looks too good to eat.
Who is he bringing here?
Did you hear anything?
I don't know, but he said that this is more important than our company anniversary.
Maybe he settled with Mr. Na for kimchi manufacturing?
I don't think so.
What are you doing? Come on inside.
It's the pretty lady!
So this was the occasion?
And that's why you're not sick anymore?
I was wondering what kind of medication you took!
So you've finally made your decision?
Now, allow me to introduce...
the person in charge of <Our Kimchi Garden>, Kimchi-Master Ha-eun Yoo!
You're embarrassing me. How do you do?
Applause! Hurray for the pretty lady!
? What a great name!
Now that the head honcho has joined us, things are looking up!
Please address her as the Kimchi-master from now on.
And since we are welcoming you today, you have to blow out the candle!
Thank you for your warm welcome. I'll do my very best.
Let all blow out the candle at the same time.
Should we? Then here we go! On the count of three...
Wait until the count of three...
Now, on the count of three,
What's the matter with you?
Wait until I count to three, alright?
Now... one, two, three!
It's going to be cold up in the mountain.
You should wear something like this to protect yourself and the baby.
Alright. Then you get one too.
Me too?
I always wanted to match clothes with my husband on my honeymoon.
Should we then?
I think it tastes pretty good...
I want to do anything to make you happy~
I'd do anything to see you smile~
You shine brighter than a star, and you're more delicate than a flower~
I wouldn't trade you for the world~
With you here by my side~
That's enough.
That's good! Next is the garlic...
The paste first?
No, we need the garlic first.
What about the shrimp paste?
The garlic has to go in first.
Ah, yes...
We've done everything our Master told us to do, but I wonder what's wrong?
Maybe it's because the machine is mixing the ingredients?
The massive quantity is throwing me off.
I think we should accurately measure and portion each ingredient.
It'll be difficult with the differences in iron , moisture, and the weight.
That's why we need our Kimchi-Master.
No more tasting! We'll go with her instincts.
I'll take another look and measure out accurate portions of each ingredient.
May I take ingredients that I will need?
Of course. But it's late already tonight, when are you planning to do this?
Just go to the factory and prepare the cabbage.
I'll figure this out even if it takes me all night.
Did you sleep well?
There's no need for all of that.
We're all one family now, so speak freely.
Yes, Father.
Now, let's sit down.
Where's Hyun-ji?
She's taking care of Da-yool.
I'm late because I was tying Da-yool's hair.
Say hello to your grandmother and grandfather.
Dad, I don't like my hair.
Why? It looks pretty to me.
It's lopsided.
Should I tie it again?
No. My hair hurts from you pulling on it.
Da-yool, you need to eat so you can go to school. It's your first day today.
I can't go looking like this! I'm not going.
Let's go, I'll fix it for you.
So, do you like it now?
Yes, thank you very much.
What is it?
Nothing. Let's go and eat.
How many times did we taste this?
How many times?
How many times did we fail?
How many times did we?
13 times.
I know. I feel so bad about this...
You still have to try it.
What, it's still not right?
No? But we measured everything by the gram this time.
Bring out the cabbages and the beets from storage.
Tell the factory staff that we begin tomorrow, Bro.
I'll contact the packaging company.
And I should also check up on our logo design.
Then we finally got it? We did? Okay?
What do we do now, Ha-eun? Looks like our troubles are all over!
So it's good? It's really done?
You better not run away now! Not a single step!
It's like a dream come true!
You should have spared us the suspense!
What if our Kimchi-Master fainted and we had to take her to the hospital?
I didn't know what to say.
Good work. Thank you, Ha-eun.
I was worried that I wouldn't succeed.
It sure is a relief. Everyone here worked harder than I did.
It's not the time for all of that right now, let's begin with the cabbages.
All of our vendors are patiently awaiting samples from us.
Yes, I'll get on it now.
I'll do everything to spread the word,
So leave it all to me!
The product is hand-made on the conveyor,
and we'll be able to deliver a consistent taste.
They still won't budge?
I'm sorry, Director.
Tell them that we'll assume all penalties if they cancel our contract.
Director, that's...
Don't question me and do as you're told. You must get their cooperation.
I understand.
Why are you here without calling me first?
Do I really have to set up an appointment with you?
Sit down. How have you been?
I waited for a week after your wedding. How can you not give me a single call?
Why, do you have something say to me?
You don't have a mother-in-law. I'm your sole in-law.
I don't expect you to visit, but shouldn't you check up on me sometimes?
You didn't call me either, did you? Aren't we living separate lives?
I'm your only in-law!
I'm sorry that you had to come all of this way.
I have a meeting scheduled, so if you'd excuse me.
Sister-in-law!
This isn't right!
What is this?
Hey, I told you that I could handle your case when you leave!
I thought Chairman Park wanted you to join him as soon as possible?
He does.
Then why are you resisting him?
I'm not in a hurry. The moment I join him, I'll be grinding my bones again.
So you're enjoying the leisurely life?
I'm telling you now, even if you end up as the Chairman, you better not forget me!
Don't forget me either.
Let's go.
When should we show Da-yool the factory?
Can we take her to see the factory?
Of course. Her mother is the top person at the factory!
Can you repeat that one more time in front of Da-yool?
I think she'll be proud if you tell her I'm the top person.
Yes, I will. I'll repeat it 10 times if you want me to.
You miss her a lot, don't you?
Yes... I want to see her and hold her.
I miss her all day. I even see her in my dreams.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought it up.
No. I'm just happy to be talking about her with someone.
I used to say her name more than a hundred times a day...
How long before she comes to visit?
Just five more nights.
I wonder if she'll like .
I can't wait.
I'll prepare a sanitary suit for her as well!
Then she could show off at her school, right?
No, no! We should invite her entire class.
It'll be educational and they'll be able to make it for themselves as well.
No, nevermind! Should we just invite them once a week?
That seems like a good idea!
That's enough.
Thank you. Thank you for allowing me to be a confident mother in front of Da-yool.
What did they say? Are they going to accept our conditions?
Director, I've heard that a kimchi start-up company has been touting Tae-gang.
Have you ever heard of ?
If you never heard of them before, I should pay them a visit.
No, go take care of other business. I'll handle this.
Using the Tae-gang brand? You can't let them get away with that! I'll go myself.
Yea, I'll show them how harsh our country punishes that kind of immoral behavior!
Anyways, don't worry about it. I'll call you when I get back.
How dare they steal the Tae-gang name?
You should have seen me work our vendors!
I tell you, my talents are being wasted here.
You don't believe me? Do you have any idea how many vendors I've secured?
Do you have business here?
Huh? I think we've met before.
Is this ?
Yes, but what brings you here?
I heard that you were claiming that your kimchi was made by Tae-gang?
What?
Yong-suk!
According to penal code line 314, if the spread of false information
adversely affects Tae-gang's public image or monetary loss,
we will pursue civil action for all damages incurred.
What are you talking about?
What's this?
False information? What are you talking about?
Why are you here?
What business do you have here?
[Subtitles provided by MBC]
Our names are here to ensure quality.
What if this makes us famous?
Do you want an autograph?
They're using our name?
I think I'll pay them a visit.
Where are you going?
Why are you yelling at me?
Where's this kimchi from?
It's Mom's kimchi, Dad!
Who? Did you say Tae-kyung right now?
What's so funny?
You're insane, don't you dare look down on me.
Stop your shenanigans! Don't do anything you'll end up regretting!
What is the meaning of this!
