-Let’s speed up, Choi. -Yes.
Yes, Jisuk.
I’m going home early today.
Want anything?
I’m on my way to Eunji’s house.
Huh?
Eunji’s house?
Why?
How can they not even answer my calls?
Like you’re some sworn enemy.
Don’t mind me.
I’m going to ask them what you’ve done wrong.
I’ll hang up.
Grandma!
Why did you come?
Grandma, don’t do this. Let’s go talk at home.
I’m sure they treated you worse when they’re this rude to me.
They should know my grandson is precious too.
No. They weren’t mean to me.
Like I believe you.
-Grandma. -Let go.
Don’t do this.
Let go.
Let’s talk at home.
Jisuk.
Grandmother. How did you come here?
I’m glad you’re here.
If you do this, it’ll only jeopardize our relationship.
What’s going on, Jisuk?
Your father…
I beg you.
Please.
Alright. I’ll leave today.
Goodbye.
What happened?
Nothing. She’s just upset.
Don’t worry about it.
Because of my dad?
Father, we’re leaving.
Bye.
I’m home.
How could you go out with such a jerk?
Why do you scold her when she deserves a compliment?
Yes. How did you meet such a rich guy?
Aren’t they a conglomerate if they bought your company?
Be quiet.
What’s the problem? What happened?
Why?
Did that jerk say something?
I told his grandma off when she called.
Was I wrong?
Why did you do that? It put Jisuk in a bad spot.
Eunji. Let’s talk with me later.
Be quiet.
Call that jerk and tell him I want to meet him.
What will you tell him?
Don’t ask. Just call him.
This is Eunji, Jisuk.
Okay. I’ll go over there since it’s cold.
Okay.
You were studying.
Is Grandpa okay?
Grandpa is not the problem. You know your uncle.
He’s got a jackpot.
What do you mean?
You should learn from Eunji.
What are you saying? Learn what?
Eunji’s about to get married into a conglomerate’s family.
Really?
Yes.
I shouldn’t have listened to Dalja.
Why?
We cornered Dalsoo and Miran for losing Father’s money.
When we should curry favors with them.
True. We could hope to get a rake-off since they’re filthy rich.
Try to make Miran feel better tomorrow.
I will.
Why is Father so furious when he didn’t even come out from his room?
He’s embarrassed about getting ripped off.
I hope he doesn’t ruin a great opportunity.
He shouldn’t.
Father shouldn’t ruin it. I’m nervous now.
He’s in front of our house.
Don’t worry, you two.
I’ll clean up the mess.
Hello, sir. Nice to meet you.
I’m Jisuk Kim.
Don’t need to know your name.
Where should I take you?
Anywhere quiet.
Did you have dinner?
Eating is not an issue now.
Please try it.
I came here with Eunji last time and she said you like steamed ox tail.
No thanks.
I’m hungry too since I didn’t have dinner.
Well, since we don’t want to waste food.
Grandfather.
Please don’t be mad.
I know what I’ve done wrong.
I wanted to beg forgiveness to Father and Mother but it didn’t work out.
Then you shouldn’t have let your grandma intervene.
Why did you make her call us?
I didn’t know she’d call.
I think she just tried to make things easier for me and Eunji.
Grandma adores Eunji.
Well, she has a good judgment of character.
Eunji is perfect in every way.
She only wanted to help out her one and only grandson.
I’m so sorry.
You’re her only grandchild?
Yes. Father was an only son but he passed away early.
Mother passed away afterwards.
Oh dear.
She raised me like her own son.
That’s why she’s overly caring.
I’m sure.
I feel so bad about what Father and Mother have gone through.
I want to make them feel better but…
I’m worried.
How about this then?
Tada.
What’s gotten into you? To even bring this?
Don’t nag, Mom.
I guess Kihoon was here. The house’s clean.
Well.
How is he?
He’s a good worker.
Isn’t he?
So what though? So pathetic.
Why?
Don’t you know?
A young man should have ambition and get a job. Working in a kitchen…
You didn’t say anything, did you?
Of course I did. I’m an elder.
Why did you do that?
Don’t worry. I only gave him a good advice.
Why would you though?
I said it because I pitied his mom. Is that wrong?
Do I have to check the mood of a young housekeeper?
I didn’t say that.
Why are you so upset?
I knew she’d do that.
Kihoon, it’s me.
You must be upset because of my mom.
Sorry.
It’s okay.
Tomorrow?
Okay, see you tomorrow.
Thank you, Father.
You’re late.
I guess.
I’m sorry to have made you intervene.
You taught him a lesson, right?
Make’em repent and make’em turn their mistake to success.
Pardon?
We can instruct him to never make the same mistake again.
And a mistake can turn into a success.
Why do you say that all of a sudden?
He’s a decent young man. Why were you so petty with him?
He respects elders and has great manners.
He was a great guy.
-Pardon? -Sorry?
They say a mistake can either bring a success or a failure.
Does anyone never make a mistake?
If there is, let him throw a stone at him.
He could do that since he didn’t know you were Eunji’s parents.
Don’t make a big fuss out of it.
Father.
I don’t know how he lured you but this isn’t right.
Yes. How could you change so suddenly?
I didn’t change.
He had a point when I heard him out.
-Father. -I know.
You’re laid off and you’re hurt.
So I’ve asked him to rehire you.
So just let it go.
What?
Why did you ask him that?
You’re generous to other people but why only mean to him?
Can’t you forgive his little mistake since he’s Eunji’s boyfriend?
It’s not a little mistake.
I’m sorry but I can’t obey you this time.
That little…
Pride won’t feed you. Why make a big fuss over nothing?
You take after me in judging a character.
My parents haven’t changed.
But thank God Grandpa is on our side.
What did you do to him?
I just talked with him sincerely.
I’m relieved.
You didn’t sleep yet?
I just got up.
I’m still upset.
Don’t be mad anymore.
Earlier.
I met Eunji’s Grandpa.
Why?
He wanted to see me.
How fickle-minded.
He told me never to call him again saying that I’m thick faced.
Is he senile or what?
What did he say?
He was understanding. He also asked Eunji’s parents to forgive me.
What?
He didn’t know me well before so don’t hate him too much.
I guess he’s a reasonable man after all.
Eunji’s parents are nice people too.
You’ll understand when you meet them later.
You think so?
How about I meet her grandpa and discuss?
Meet her grandpa?
You’ve done your best.
Two of us might resolve it faster.
Yes, I’ll tell him then.
Why?
How could Father do that?
Frankly…
If we don’t have any bias, he’s almost a perfect guy.
But Father knew how he treated us.
How could he do that?
I think he was tempted by his offer to rehire me.
Probably Father brought it up.
Jisuk is a smart young man.
He won’t dare to make a deal.
I’ve got to start working soon.
What will you do?
I probably can’t get an office job.
I should get an odd job for now while looking for a decent one.
Only if we could control that.
I will make it happen.
Don’t stress yourself.
Okay. Thanks.
Go to sleep.
Let’s sleep.
You didn’t have to.
I felt bad about quitting halfway.
No, I would’ve felt bad if you got hurt with your weak knees.
Do you have any odd jobs I can do?
Well, I was thinking to start a new business.
Why? I thought this business was stable.
Economy is bad and this isn’t working.
What will you do then?
I have a couple of ideas.
Can you count me in?
You?
Hard to get a job at my age.
But I could do something if with a trusty partner.
True.
My friend has a chauffeur business and he’s hiring drivers.
How about that until we decide on the business?
Sure. I can earn allowances.
Okay then.
Okay.
Enjoy.
This place must be expensive.
My treat.
-I know. You’re rich. -Yes, I am.
But what’s the use?
I have no man.
What?
Nothing.
I envy you for having a husband.
Absurd.
You have a dependable daughter.
I hear about Yoonhee from my brother.
I heard she’s a great doctor.
So what? She needs a man who could control her temper.
You can’t force those things.
I know. She hates me though.
She despises me for snoring.
She told me to cook when I asked her to fire a male housekeeper.
Male housekeeper?
Yes.
I guess Koreans even use men for housekeepers.
She said he’s just a temporary.
But a man shouldn’t frequent a single woman’s house.
What kind of a man is he? Is he good?
He’s young.
Handsome too.
And he’s good at what he does.
His kimchi stew is the best.
Tastes the same as yours.
I’m getting hungry.
All occupation is honorable but his parents must be upset.
I’m sure his parents want him to have a decent job.
Sure.
I would’ve spanked him if he was my son.
I would’ve whipped him if he was mine. I mean, get kicked out.
His grandpa yells at him if he even goes into the kitchen.
If his grandpa or Father finds out.
Don’t even want to imagine.
Oh, your kids must be all grown up.
The last time I saw, your daughter was in junior high and your son was little.
Sure, we’re over 50 now.
But people don’t see me in fifties.
People do tell your age, right?
I guess.
Get some Botox shot.
Well, even the Botox can’t fix wrinkles caused by the hardship.
Do I look that old?
Of course.
Because you married a wrong guy.
Your life went downhill after meeting him.
Don’t say that.
He’s a good man.
He should be. The things he made you go through.
And talk about your in-laws.
Just divorce him.
No, you have to receive alimony but he’s broke.
Forget it.
Cancel what I said about envying you for having a husband.
Thanks for caring about me but you’ve gone overboard.
You wish me to get a divorce?
Besides, my husband isn’t a weirdo.
I’m just saying. Don’t get all serious.
Shouldn’t you watch your words as you get older?
How come she hasn’t changed one bit?
People don’t change so easily.
Just ignore her.
I want to but I can’t.
Why would she get mad when I’m the one who should be mad?
What woman would like someone mocking her husband?
Are you siding with your sister?
Yes I am.
Just drink this coffee and make yourself feel better.
I shouldn’t have come to Korea.
My long-time friend gets disappointed in me.
And my daughter isn’t even married yet.
I’m so mad.
Why did she have to lose such a great guy like Attorney Gu?
He’s not a great guy.
He’s good enough. What more?
No, he’s a jerk.
Jerk? That’s wrong.
He deserves it. That jerk…
Why? What is it?
You got me curious.
Tell me.
Don’t tell this to your daughter.
Actually…
I heard of this recently…
Enjoy.
Leaving already?
Sorry to bother you.
Don’t even have customers. It’s okay.
Do you know any place that needs a part-timer?
For whom?
Me.
You?
Yes.
I need to prepare dinner for Father so I’d like to work a few hours in the daytime.
If you know any place, recommend me.
Want to work at my restaurant?
Here?
Yes.
I guess I’m getting old and lazy.
I’d be relieved if you can take care of this place.
Really?
You’re not creating an unnecessary job for me, are you?
Did you hear a businessman losing money?
You didn’t have to.
This is for you and Dalsoo.
This is really fancy Boer tea.
Yes, look fancy.
We care about you the most, right?
Thanks.
Why is the door open?
Hi.
You were here too.
Hi.
Welcome.
Say hi, Soojung.
Hi.
So cute.
Come come.
Sangchul went fishing with his buddies so I came to have dinner here.
Didn’t want to cook.
This…
Sangchul gave this to you as a gift from his business trip to China.
Why is it here?
Oh, it’s…
I thought they’d appreciate this more than us.
So you’re recycling a gift we gave you?
No, it’s not recycling. We didn’t even open it.
In any case.
Actually, I thank both of you.
Let’s drink this while we’re here.
That was the best decision Father made.
I was so worried he might block Eunji’s future.
We were worried too.
You didn’t have to.
You should just let her date him.
Yes. If Eunji marries into that family.
You and Dalsoo’s life will turn for the best.
We don’t want to use our daughter to gain comfort.
Don’t be selfish. What about Eunji?
Yes. You want Eunji to live poor like you for the rest of her life?
She won’t have to worry about money if she marries into his family.
Not like we want to oppose him.
It’s a torture to oppose a man my daughter loves.
That’s why you should let her.
Not like that guy killed a man.
Even if he was married before, he’d be a good bachelor.
Sure. Even if he had a child.
Enough.
I’m sorry to have called you abruptly last time.
It’s okay. We were rude.
I heard from Jisuk.
You wanted to discuss in person.
Yes, I know that place.
I’ll see you soon then.
She sure is rich.
To ask to meet at the hotel.
Still upset about my mom? She can be a bit rude.
You probably won’t believe but she was worried about you.
Don’t be mad. This is our first date.
Not to be mad about.
You are mad though.
What did you do just now?
Huh?
I heard men like flirty women.
That was flirt?
Huh? You smiled.
Why?
It’s him. You saw him at the market.
You should answer.
Why? You still have business left with me?
What? My mom?
Sorry.
I’ll apologize instead.
Let me make a call, Kihoon.
Why did you go see him?
You want me to lose my face?
How could I leave him alone when he two timed you?
Why did you say you guys just broke up?
Why would you defend him?
You feel better now that you know I was dumped?
Did you have to do that?
I don’t even want to talk to you.
Cry if you want.
It’s all right. You have me.
Substitute driver? I heard it’s difficult.
Nothing’s easy in this world.
You know I’m an awesome driver.
I’ll do this just until we come up with a new business idea.
But still. Business isn’t for everyone.
I’ll start small. Don’t worry.
Do a thorough research.
Oh, I’m going to work a part-time too.
Huh? What kind?
I’ll help Malsoon at her restaurant.
Why would you?
I’m worried about sending living allowances to Minji next month.
We should earn every penny.
Quit if it’s stressful.
I won’t ruin my health like you.
Miran.
Sorry.
Come here.
What?
Pretty. I want this one.
Yes.
I’ll pay for my grandmother’s too.
It’s okay. I wanted to give her a gift.
Would she like that scarf?
I hope she does.
I’m sure she will.
You’re so considerate. To think of giving gifts.
They’re suffering because of us. Wanted to show my appreciation.
I hope they’re having a good meeting.
Yes.
I got here.
I’m inside.
Wearing a hat and a beige color coat.
Yes, I see you.
Hello.
Oh, hello.
Please sit.
I’m a bit late.
I left early but had traffic.
What’s wrong?
I’m sorry.
You look like someone I used to know.
I was also surprised when I saw you.
You look familiar.
Is that right?
Let me introduce myself.
I’m Eunji’s grandfather, Dongpal. Oh.
Yes, I’m…
Dongpal Oh?
Isn’t your hometown Guhjin?
Yes, Guhjin Goseungkun.
How did you know?
I’m Oakboon. Oakboon Im.
You enjoy hurting me?
Maybe you’re a stepmom.
What?
Incredible. I and Eunji must have a fate.
Eunji and Jisuk shouldn’t meet.
He told me to break up with you.
What’s going on?
Stop stirring up Eunji and put her back to where she was.
I couldn’t sleep a wink after meeting you last night.
