Let's keep this simple.
You do know that things can't work out
for you and Ha-eun, right?
I'm not listening to this.
If you don't want her to suffer,
you'll let her go.
I would never let her suffer.
How do you plan to make her happy?
You're sitting atop a pile of ashes for a factory,
so how are you going to make her happy?
Can you even feed her?
I don't care!
I have feelings for Tae-kyung.
I'm going to make things work between us.
Ha-eun-Yoo!
Do I have to repeat myself?
We're going to make things work out.
Have you lost your mind?
What we do doesn't concern you, so go back!
I won't allow you to get together with this guy!
Why don't we talk privately?
I know how you must feel,
but you can't rebound with this guy.
Watch what you say!
Do you think other men care about their ex-wives like I do?
Listen to me because I'm only concerned for you!
Ha-eun, please go inside.
You're not going anywhere!
Ha-eun.
Alright. I'm going inside.
I'll do as you say.
Ha-eun Yoo!
Send him away, and I'll see you inside.
Stop right there!
Don't you have business with me?
How did you get her so convinced?
Why don't we finish what we were talking about?
I told you already, I won't give up Ha-eun.
It doesn't matter how many times you come by,
because my answer will remain the same.
Listen to me carefully.
For your sake as well, this can't go on.
Nonsense.
If you really care about her, you'll let her go.
For both your sake.
And not for your own benefit?
Please leave now.
Ha-eun!
Yes...
Look at me.
Did... he leave?
Ha-eun.
I, um...
I have customers inside...
I'll see you after work,
What?
You'll be done by nine o'clock, right?
I'll come by then.
Ha-eun! Tae-kyung!
This is driving me crazy!
Those idiots.
Should I tell them?
No, wait a minute.
Let me think about this.
I overheard what you said to Tae-kyung at the hospital.
You threatened him to stay away from Tae-gang.
Yea, did you talk to your father?
Your father did?
That Tae-kyung isn't as dumb as he looks.
He must've realized that it'll only get harder
for him if he continues this.
Then is it finally over?
No, it's only the beginning.
Hyun-ji.
As long as he's alive, this doesn't end.
You've done enough.
Let's end it here.
Don't harass them anymore.
Keep an eye on father for me.
Hello. I'm inquiring about the farmland we discussed.
Is it possible to buy it now?
Why does that man keep showing up here?
He kept showing up at the factory, and now he's here!
Sorry for the commotion.
Don't worry and get back to work.
Yea, he's the husband of the building owner,
so he must have had some business to discuss.
Let's get back to work, Ha-neul.
He's working.
[President Hyun-ji Park]
You can make noodles with it as well.
Try adding cooked pork.
You're giving this for free?
We'll enjoy it.
Enjoy, and be sure to come again.
- Yes, alright. - We'll be back.
Yes, thank you.
We're running a business here.
Why are you giving out free kimchi all the time?
It's better to be generous.
You should look to the future, not just the present.
There's a limit to that.
She's right.
To be honest,
the people taking it don't feel very comfortable.
Think about it.
Would you prefer to take a free bag every visit,
or would you rather buy it whenever you want it?
Yea, let's sell it.
Can't we charge $5 a bag?
We can't sell it like that.
We need the proper permits.
We need a permit to sell what we make?
Then we'll get it! Let's get the permit.
More importantly,
With the factory on hold right now,
shouldn't we start making our own kimchi?
We have a supply for the time being,
but yes, we'll have to make our own.
It's going to be hard work.
We can get the cabbage from the vegetable man,
and you focus on making the kimchi.
If we make fresh kimchi everyday,
we can sell both fresh and fermented kimchi.
Perfect!
Do some work before you start talking,
Do you think it's easy to make kimchi everyday?
You never let me near the kimchi anyways!
I can prepare and wash the cabbages.
You can?
Why not? Is that a problem?
Not at all.
Preparing and washing is half the work.
Then leave it to me.
A family's got to stick together!
Are you nervous because of your company?
Why are you so obedient?
I hope your intentions don't change.
But making kimchi every day isn't easy.
Here's a copy of the factory contract for you, the lessee.
And I've provided a copy to the owner as well.
Have you received the settlement?
Yes.
Then that's that.
I'll be on my way.
Good work.
Now, we have no more business with each other.
Am I right?
I won't be contacting you again.
So you're saying as long as I keep quiet,
we won't be running into each other?
Then don't aggravate me.
I've never done that.
Stay away from my father, my house, and my company.
My sentiment exactly.
Tell your husband to stay away from us.
I'll trust that he won't be coming by again to harass Ha-eun.
I hope we never meet again.
I have feelings for Tae-kyung.
I'm going to make things work between us.
Do I have to repeat myself?
We're going to make things work out.
Oh my, who's this?
What could you possibly want with me?
I have to speak with you about Ha-eun.
Didn't you get the message when I slapped you with the kimchi?
How dare you talk about my daughter!
You'll be wise to meet with me.
It concerns her well-being.
Get out of here with your nonsense!
Do you know what's going on because of Tae-kyung Shin?
I'll be in your area.
I thought you're headed for the department store?
Did you go see Ha-eun this afternoon?
What?
Why would you meet that woman?
What did you hear this time?
I went to see Tae-kyung Shin.
Why?
What do you mean, why?
To separate the two of them.
That's not it.
It got to you when he told you to stay away from her,
so you were reacting, weren't you?
What's the matter with you?
I didn't go there to meet her!
Either way, it's because of her.
Is that even important right now?
Then what's important to you?
Okay then.
Should I let them be?
Let them get closer?
How is that going to benefit you?
What?
Don't you want to separate them?
Why are you angry with me
when I'm trying to help you?
You're helping me?
My wife's future is tangled in this, so I'm helping!
Do you want me to sit by and watch?
How am I tangled?
What do you mean?
Da-yool's involved.
As long as they're together, you'll never get rid of him!
Really? Is that all of it?
What more do you need?
Nevermind.
Regardless, don't meet with Ha-eun again.
I'll be the one to meet with her if we have to.
How much have you told your husband?
Something's wrong.
I think he knows something.
If we don't give up the kimchi, you'll end up giving up Tae-gang.
My wife's future is tangled in this, so I'm helping!
Do you want me to sit by and watch?
Yea, Mother.
How did Dong-joon seem suspicious?
What are you talking about?
You said that he seemed to know something.
Why did you bring that up?
The way he was probing me with questions,
it gave me the feeling he was on to something.
Did he say something to you?
No. We'll talk later.
He must never find out.
Make sure that he doesn't.
Alright. I have to go.
Mom, where are you going?
I'll be back soon.
Where?
I won't be late.
It'll only take a moment.
What's the matter with Mom?
She probably has plans.
What kind of plans could she have?
I'm really sorry.
About that.
I've been under a lot of pressure...
What's he saying? Do we send it again?
What did you say?
I understand that you're upset,
but how can you call me an idiot?
Isn't that a bit rude?
Give me that!
Hello.
This is Yong-suk Bae from .
Our employee made an honest mistake.
How can you call her an idiot?
Aren't you going too far?
Please, Chief...
We're not running off with your money!
You seemed so accommodating when business was great!
This is absurd!
That's enough. Please stop!
Either way, we'll be sending you your money soon.
And I'll be the one hanging up!
So rude!
From now on, give me those calls.
But I was the one who made the mistake.
Everyone makes mistakes!
And don't worry about him calling you an idiot.
Why, I...!
Hey, you're back?
It's taken care of.
Check the accounts and send the money to our creditors.
Balance the books.
Yes, Boss.
It's fortunate that we received a settlement.
Good work.
I didn't do much.
It's you and Ha-neul that's handling the hard work.
Forget that.
Either way, we caught a breather.
I agree.
I'm so glad we can take care of the angry calls.
I'm headed to the farm now.
I'll go there, Bro.
You will?
Yea, I have to meet with Mr. Na anyways.
And you want to personally get the kimchi for our Master?
Good thing, because I have to pick up Hoon.
Drive safely.
Yea.
Tae-kyung.
Are you busy?
No, I was taking a break.
Where are you?
I'm a bit far away.
Oh, I see.
You must be busy.
I need to stop by a business partner.
I'll see you when I get back to the office at night.
Be careful.
You too, Ha-eun.
Yes.
Ha-eun!
Yes?
What is it?
I miss you.
I'll be back soon.
Wait for me.
Yes.
So what are you doing?
Mom...?
I haven't seen Mom all day!
She's probably out gossiping at the market.
You think so?
But, how far have you gone with him?
Hey, go rest or something when there are no customers...
Did he hold your hand?
Ji-eun Yoo.
But are you sure about this?
He has nothing to offer,
and things are tough for you as it is.
To put it bluntly, is he just another mouth to feed?
The situation's changed, but he's still the same person.
So you don't care if he's penniless?
You're not twenty years old anymore!
Forget it.
I'm going to go lie down next to Ye-seul.
What's the matter with you?
Hello, Mr. Chairman.
I hope I'm not interrupting.
Not at all. Please speak.
I would like to know when you end work,
so I can stop by.
What?
I would like a moment of your time.
Ah, yes.
Then I'll head over to your location.
I'm sure you're tired after work.
I can head there myself.
Not at all. I prefer that I meet you there.
Alright. Then it's agreed.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
Something came up last minute. I don't think we can meet tonight.
I'll contact you later.
Is that true?
The boss and sister-in-law?
They can't fool me.
When we used to go to school, I used to catch her dating all the time.
That's why I can get away with everything
except cheating on you.
What did you say?
Do you love me that much?
You sure seemed worked up!
You're silly.
I had no idea the boss was interested in Ha-eun.
If you had the sense for that,
you wouldn't be scammed all the time!
Hey, look here! That just means I'm a trusting person!
Tell me how the vegetable man will ruin Ha-eun's life!
Don't you know that the chairman of Tae-gang
treats Tae-kyung like his own son?
So what?
What do you mean?
If Ha-eun and this guy continues,
don't you know what it means for me?
I don't care about you!
It's good for my daughter.
And what about Da-yool?
What about her?
They might end up coming into our house.
How are you going to explain this to Da-yool?
The two aren't even related, so who cares?
And it's a good thing if Da-yool sees her mother more often!
You're not thinking clearly!
I guess this becomes some sort of inconvenience for you.
That's great!
I'll do everything I can to speed it up!
This isn't a joke!
Things will only get harder for Ha-eun.
Don't worry about my daughter, and go live your life.
What's the matter with you?
I can see right through you!
Acting like you're concerned for Ha-eun,
when you're really looking out for yourself!
It won't work on me,
so don't call me for something like this ever again!
I can never get through to her.
Did you have dinner?
You have a meeting tomorrow morning,
so don't be too late.
Yes, I understand.
We started without you.
Go on.
Is everyone late today?
Aren't you going to eat?
Should I set the table, Madam?
I'm fine.
Do we have any dates?
Yes.
Please prepare the dates for tea tomorrow morning for the Chairman.
Yes, Madam.
You should add more spices to the date tea.
Grandmother, why aren't you eating with us?
My teacher said you have to eat well to stay healthy.
Grandmother, join us.
I'm fine, so you go on ahead.
Yes, ma'am.
She's always so moody and cold,
so why are you so concerned about her?
Grandmother didn't eat last night either.
So what, are you worried?
I guess not.
Eat your food.
This too.
I'm not eating that.
I should have gone to you.
Thank you for coming.
If you were to come by...
I know. You're worried about Tae-kyung.
I'm sure you're tired, so I'll make it quick.
I don't know how you may take this,
but I owe Tae-kyung's parents.
I owe them too much.
Although we we're young,
and now there's no way for me to repay them.
I think that's why I'm concerned about Tae-kyung.
Yes...
But I didn't know that I was imposing on him.
He was always refusing me,
and I kept pushing him for my own selfish reasons.
I've realized it now.
I'll leave him to his own devices now.
There's nothing I can do for him.
That's why I need to ask you for a favor.
Yes, go on.
If there's ever anything I can do to help him,
can you contact me and let me know?
I'd like to know when there's good news as well.
Yes, Chairman. I'll do that.
I'm sure it's not comfortable for you to meet with me either.
Thank you.
Not at all.
Tae-kyung misses you as well.
But don't you think this is something time will eventually take care of?
Now that you mention it,
I do feel much better.
Yes, I understand.
Your father is working late.
You should stop by his office.
I was going to call his assistant.
Alright. I'll meet with him and head home together.
What is it?
I've prepared some porridge, Madam.
Okay. I'll be right out.
Yes.
Are you having some dinner?
Just a bit.
Yes, Madam.
Auntie, I'm done eating.
Sit down.
Your grandmother's eating.
I'm fine. Go on upstairs.
You should never eat alone.
I want to eat quietly alone
so take Da-yool upstairs.
I've heard that your face and your stomach are connected.
So if you have a stiff face, it'll upset your stomach.
Look here...
You'll have a hard time digesting!
Understood. Enjoy your meal.
What are you doing here?
What's the matter with you?
Follow me.
The restaurant's closed, Boss.
I'm sorry.
Something came up last minute. I don't think we can meet tonight.
I'll contact you later.
What do we do with the kimchi?
Let's put it into our storage for now.
Alright.
I have nothing to say to you!
You never cease to surprise me, do you?
I could care less.
Are you trying to get back at me?
What?
Give it up.
It doesn't suit you.
Enough with your nonsense.
Why would I waste my time getting back at you?
Then why are you in the Chairman's office?
Do I refuse when he called me there?
Okay, then.
Are you going to end it with Tae-kyung Shin?
Why should I?
Please listen to me!
Why don't you go insane with a little grace?
I don't want you to get hurt!
Please!
Get away from me!
Please! This is good for the both of us!
[Subtitles provided by MBC]
I shouldn't have said that.
I'm sorry.
I'm fine with it.
It shows me that you care.
How can you barge in here like that?
Plan things before you make a move!
Do I need your permission to call people into my office?
Stop chasing after Tae-kyung Shin and Ha-eun Yoo!
Be good to him.
Isn't he a good father to you?
Who are you to teach me?
Dong-joon's going to become a problem!
He's going to complicate things.
If you marry Tae-kyung, we become in-laws!
