- Are you all right? - Yes, I'm just fine.
What are you doing?
What are you doing with my wife?
Tell me, you jerk! What do you think you're doing?
Let him go first. What do you think you're doing?
Mina, you tell me.
Why are you getting out his car?
What are you saying? He's my boss.
Watch your words.
Your boss? You know who that jerk is?
He's the one who fired me.
- Don't you know? - What?
I didn't know Mina's husband was you.
Mina?
You still haven't learned your lesson?
Who are you to call my wife by her first name?
There must be a misunderstanding. Let me go then we'll talk.
There was an office get-together.
She had a little too much to drink, so I gave her a ride.
So why did you bring my wife home?!
It was you, wasn't it? You bought her the necklace too, didn't you?
I did. I gave her the necklace.
I didn't know she was married then.
You didn't know?
- How dare you lie... - Stop it!
It's all my fault. So please stop it now.
He'll get himself into trouble. Wait here.
- Don't get involved. - Just wait here.
Go now
Let's go inside and talk.
Go where?
Hey!
How can you tell me you thought she was single?
And Choi Mina,
what did you do to...
Carry yourself better!
Housewife 14
What did he mean he didn't know you were married?
Tell me what's going on!
I lied and said I was single at the interview.
What?
I didn't think I'd get the job if I told them I was married.
I was turned down more than a dozen times when I told them the truth.
I couldn't lose another chance.
I can't believe this.
I'm sorry.
But everyone knows I'm married now.
That's not important now.
What's going on between that jerk and you?
Did you insist on going on that business trip
because of him?
Don't get the wrong idea. There is nothing going on.
Who'd believe that? I have proof!
He gave me the necklace for my birthday.
Why would he buy you birthday gift if there were nothing going on?
And you just accepted it?
He gave it to me not knowing I was married. And I had to accept it
What circumstance?
You think I stayed home so you can go around doing that?
What's going on between you two?
See? You can't answer me.
Quit your job right now!
I don't care if we all starve to death.
Will my quitting solve everything?
Yes, that'll solve everything.
Why is my quitting work solution to everything?
Have you ever put yourself in my shoes?
Why do you think I was so desperate to work even if I had to lie?
Did you ever think about why I insisted on working
when everyone was telling me to quit?
Yes, let's hear it.
You're working so you can lie about being single,
Iet a young buck buy you a necklace and give you rides?
Watch what you say. I admit my mistakes.
But I've done nothing to be ashamed of.
Can't you trust and understand me?
You're making it very hard for me to do that.
What crazy lunatic would understand his wife
who's going around with the jerk who fired him?
Would you?
I told you that's not the case.
Stop putting words in my mouth.
I'd rather not work if this is all I have to hear from you.
So quit your job.
Everything will be fine if only you'd quit.
Don't make it more complicate
This is your last warning.
You'd better quit that job!
- Song-yi, I'm going to work. - Bye, Mommy.
Bye.
Hand in your resignation today. Got that?
- Daddy, - Yeah?
why did you hit that man last night?
Well... He did something bad to me long time ago.
Like what?
He made me get fired.
So we had a fight.
Then why was Mommy with him?
That's because...
It was late so there was no bus. So he gave her a ride home.
Then why did you and Mommy fight?
Don't wait until Soo-han gets a job to quit your job.
Quit your job so Soo-han will get a job.
How could you leave your husband home
and go to work yourself?
You think I stayed home so you can go around doing that?
Everything will be fine if only you'd quit.
Don't make it more complicate
Come in.
I'm sorry about last night.
Are you badly hurt?
No. Are you all right?
Yes.
This...
What is this?
I'm sorry.
Ms. Choi Mina.
Thank you for everything.
I'm sorry I have to leave like this.
You want to quit like this when you had to go through
so much to get this job?
You can work with a peace of mind that everything is out in the open.
I don't think I can. I'm sorry.
Last night...
I was jealous.
Even when I heard you say you were married,
it didn't really sink in.
But when I saw it with my own eyes, it really sank in.
She's really married.
She really is.
And for a minute, I was jealous of your husband.
- Chief.... - I can't stop you.
It's true I pressured you with my feelings for you.
And I did give you the necklace.
And I did fire your husband.
But I wish you'd take your resignation back.
All your efforts would be wasted.
I'm sorry. I have no other choice.
I'm sorry.
Will you sign this for me?
She couldn't have gone that far...
She's not that kind of a woman.
Then again, you never know...
Let's call it a day. I don't think it'll be any good anyway.
But we've already started.
Let's go out for some air.I feel stifled.
Do you feel uncomfortable with me? So you moved to another station?
Not really...
I know. You don't have to tell me.
It's better than you quitting the cooking class.
- I saw you last night. - What?
Last night...in front of our building...
You did.There are disadvantages to living in the same building.
I'm embarrassed.
Why did you do that?
You know how it is...
You know it's a misunderstanding, but you let it get bigger and bigger.
Like yeast bread...
It gets so big it eventually explodes.
That's how it was last night.
But you do trust your wife, don't you?
I'm not sure.
What would you have done?
If it were me...
I wouldn't be able to confront him even if I had suspicion.
I'll just keep it bottled up and let it rot inside.
There is no turning back
once you confirm your suspicion.
But I still want to confirm it.
Isn't marriage a strange thing?
It's because you love her a lot.
If you didn't love her, you wouldn't care.
You wouldn't even get angry or misunderstand.
You're right. Sometimes the kind of relationship we have is better
And what kind of relationship do we have?
Pardon?
Well...
That's...
- Friendship. - Yes... You're right. Friendship.
Yes, friendship.
Shall we go?
Thank you for this.
- It's wet. - Just give it back to me.
No, I'll wash and return it to you tomorrow.
This is my favorite fishcake.
- What about you? - Eat all you want.
But he was a good-looking man, wasn't he?
If he even gave her a necklace, they were fooling around.
No, you're wrong. There must be a misunderstanding.
She accepted the necklace because she had feelings for him.
They should put all those people
who fool around on their spouses behind bars.
Why are you getting all worked up?
Did your husband fool around on you?
I don't want to go into my dark past.
But what would you have done?
I'd never fool around.
- Are you sure? - lt'd cost too much.
You have to buy her dinner, drinks and pay for hotel rooms.
They all cost money.
So are you saying you'd fool around if you had the money?
It's just a figure of speech.
I'm not doing this.
I must be crazy doing this on such a beautiful day.
Why are we fighting over
someone else's problem?
I thought you were a pure man.
I guess you only looked pure because you were poor.
Beatrice, you're right in here.
Really?
If I were a magician, I'd carry you in my pocket with me all the time.
What are you saying?
Go and make that broth now.
All right.
I think I saw Mina writing a resignation letter earlier.
- Really? - Yes.
But she's been working so hard on the new pizza. Why?
The work must've been too much for her.
Maybe it's her health.
- What is everyone talking about? - Is it true?
Are you resigned?
The news has already traveled? I was going to tell you over lunch.
You don't have to if it's because of me.
Don't worry. That's not the reason.
You don't have to hide it.
I just thought of you as a friendly competition.
There are other reasons. You'll understand how hard
it is to live as a married woman when you get married later.
I'm really not the reason?
I'm sorry to hear you're quitting.
We've grown so close.
I guess I'll have to help Chief Ji from now.
Please handover everything you were working on for the new pizza.
All right. Don't worry.
Did you work late again? Why are you so late?
- Because of grocery shopping. - I told you to resign,
not go grocery shopping. Did you resign or not?
I told you not to come home
if you weren't going to resign.
- Get out right now. - I resigned today.
I'll stay home from tomorrow. I'll do the housework
so you can start looking for a job.
Okay.Well done.
You should've done that sooner.
Come to think of it, I was wrong.
I shouldn't have accepted the necklace no matter what.
- You were right to be suspicious. - You only realize that now?
Father came to see me at work few days ago.
He said
you'd find a job only after I quit mine.
I was hurt at the time, but I think he's right.
And everything you said is right too.
I should've resigned sooner. I feel so much better now that I quit.
I don't know why I was so desperate to work.
Just take your time finding a job.
We have enough savings to last a few months.
All right.
It's all worked out.
You're going out?
I'm going out to meet him. He's drinking so I'd pick him up...
I see...Go on.
Yes
And what kind of relationship do we have?
- You're up. - When did you get up?
A while ago.Go wash up. Breakfast is ready.
All right. Now that I'll be working...
you have to cook.
Song-yi, time for school now.
- Kindergarten? - I should take her
You're walking me to school now? You're not going to work?
No. I'm not going to work now. I'm going to stay with you all the time.
Then Daddy is going to work?
Yes, he'll soon be going to work.
Did you give the necklace back to that jerk?
I did...yesterday.
Yes, Team Captain.
I'm sorry. Please accept my resignation.
I can't wait until you find my replacement.
I'm really sorry.
Are we waiting for Mister Koo?
Yes, I have to return this to him.
- Hello. - Hi.
You're not going to work today?
I quit. I'll be seeing you often from now on.
Are you always this quiet?
Yes... My Korean isn't very good so...
- Your Korean is good. - No.
What kind of work does your husband do?
I think he staying out side often
He runs his own business. That's why he goes on a lot of business trips.
I see. You must be lonely in a foreign country.
When did you become so close to my husband?
Close?
You must be close if you went to the amusement park together.
Mina!
What are you doing here? You quit your job?
Yes, I did.
Right, how could you keep working after all that?
And it's over with that man? You broke it off?
Please watch what you say in front of the kids.
You don't know what you're talking about.Let's go.
I'm just curious.
Chief, what are you doing here?
- I just stopped by. - Me too.
By the way, did Mina really resign?
I guess so.
It's inconvenient with her gone.
I thought she'd do a good job.
She left everything she was working on with me.
I guess you and I will be...
- We'll discuss that later. - Chief!
- I can do a good job too. - I know.
My wife quit her job.
I know. I met her on the way to kindergarten this morning.
I'm thinking about quitting the class.
Now that my wife quit her job, I have to find a job soon.
You're right. I'm sure you'll find a good job soon.
She is really married. I was jealous
of your husband for a minute.
- I'm going out. - Where?
Where else? To find a job.
You don't have money, do you?
It's all right. I have money.
I have nothing to do at home... And I have nowhere to go.
And times passes so slowly.
Mister, any luck?
Caught any fish?
I used to fish a lot too.
I'm just doing this to kill time.
- How long have you been fired? - Pardon?
Don't be surprised. Everyone here has no job
and no place to go.
Don't you know?
It's been three months.
You've lasted long. What have you been doing until now?
I stayed with my child--- did the housework.
And your wife is working?
Yes.
You're a lucky man. My wife would put up with me
for a few days, but she couldn't stand to see me staying home.
And she's even making money? You're one lucky man.
What luck... Who knows if she's fooling around...
- Hello? - This is Ji Sun-woo.
I have nothing to say to you.Hang up.
Wait. I have something to tell you.
Please make some time for me.
- Mom, I'm hungry. - You are?
What shall we make?
You like fried rice, don't you?
I don't like fried rice anymore.
Why not? This was your favorite.
That was before. Daddy makes me curry rice these days.
He does?
I didn't know.
Fine, we'll make curry too.
Where is curry powder?
- It's not there. It's up there. - Really?
Here it is. Where is the cooking oil?
It's not there. It's down there.
Daddy organized everything.
He did? I haven't been in the kitchen for so long I didn't know.
Excuse me.
- Yes, Mom. - I'm in front of your office.
Come down for a minute.
Mom, I'm not at work. I'm home.
What are you doing home at this hour? Is it your day off?
- No, I quit. - What?
I'm sorry to bother you like this.
Let's just get to the point.
Fine.
First of all, I hope there is no misunderstanding
because of the necklace I gave her.
You shouldn't have done anything to cause a misunderstanding.
To be honest, I had feelings for her when
I thought she was single.
- That's why I gave her the gift. - Feelings?
But she told me she was married with a kid
when I gave her the necklace.
Then you gave her the necklace
knowing she was married?
You're a home-wrecker, aren't you?
I no longer have any feelings for her,
but I gave her the necklace since I bought it anyway.
- And that was a mistake. - So
you're saying you had feelings for her.
That was before I knew the truth, and it's in the past now.
Then again, Mina won't be swayed by the likes of you.
Coming on to just any women just because you have a pretty face...
I have no excuse no matter what you say to me.
But I want to ask you
to let her come back to work.
What? Who are you to say that?
She's worked very hard, at the store and at headquarters.
She has talent and passion for her work.
Please reconsider, just so not to waste her talents.
I'm saying this to you as her boss who's been watching her...
And who are you to say those things?
I'd mourn her waste of talent, and I'll be watching her.
Don't mind her business.
This is her notebook.
You'll learn how hard she's worked when you read this.
I won't process her resignation until the end of the week...
She won't go back there even if she does go back working.
I won't let her work for a jerk of a boss like you.
I never!
Scumbag. Workplace isn't a social club...
How dare he try to seduce a married woman...
Who is he to tell her to come back to work?
What? He feels bad for her talent and passion for work?
It's a shame the company is keeping a jerk like you on payroll.
Choi Mina...go, go--- Go where?
Fine, I'll get a job.
I'll go to work, so Mina, you stay home.
So he told you to quit even before he got a job?
I didn't quit because Soo-han told me to quit.
It was my decision.
He is the man who fired him. Imagine how miserable he must've felt.
So both of you won't work?
I'm sure he'll find a job soon.
He's still unemployed because it's that easy to find a job.
That must be Soo-han.
- Who is it? - It's me.
Why did you drink so much?
I had a drink.You had a drink too.
Hello, Mother-in-law.
I can't believe this... How can you be drinking at a time like this?
- Mom, what are you doing? - What?
It's not enough you're unemployed,
but you go out drinking after you make her quit her job too?
Yes, and I could really drink.
What?
I can't even drink if I'm unemployed?
It's not like I do nothing at home.
- I've been doing housework. - What are you doing?
Let me go.
Look at these hands.
They're all chapped because of "housewife" eczema.
Can you say these are man's hands?
I worked around the house until my hands cracked.
You can't tell me I did nothing.
I never told you to keep the house.
You volunteered to do that.
- Stop it, both of you. - Stop what?
Mother-in-law, I carried bricks, cleaned windows,
and even got electrocuted trying to make money
to buy Mina a necklace for her birthday.
Electrocuted?
Yes, and you told me to change a light bulb.
- You should've told me. - Forget it.
I went through all that and bought her a necklace,
but she already had a better one.
What do you mean?
That's enough. Get up now.
I wanted to buy her that necklace But I didn't have enough money.
I plan to make lots of money.
I'm going to make tons of money,
and buy her a huge diamond.
Do you want one too?
I don't need a diamond necklace. Just don't give me grief.
Don't worry!
I'll buy the whole set of jewels for you.
- What are you doing? - Get out of the way.
Mother-in-law
Koo Soo-han isn't dead yet.
I'm the tumbler!
- Choi Mina. - Lie down straight.
I'll bask you in the lap of luxury. Don't worry.
I'm not worried.
Choi Mina...
You want to work, don't you?
But too bad. You can't go to work.
I'll never let you work for that company.
I'll never let you work for that heartless jerk.
I won't go back even if you
push me to go to work.
- Did he fall asleep? - Yes.
I'm sorry you had to see that.
It's all right. I'd be more upset if you say that.
I know how you feel, but it must be hard for Soo-han too.
I wish you'd like him a little more.
He's your son-in-law whether you like it or not.
But what was he saying about a necklace?
Necklace...
I was so drunk I don't remember anything.
Did I make a mistake in front of Mother-in-law?
- You didn't. - I didn't? Good.
There is no chili pepper.
You should add chili pepper to this.
- Dad's cooking is better, isn't it? - Yes
- Put this on after you eat. - What's that?
It's for "housewife" eczema.
- Mommy, make me sour pork tonight. - You can't eat pork.
You can make it with fish. Daddy made it for me.
Daddy can even make that?
Yes, he learned it from his cooking class.
- You can't make it, can you? - Of course I can.
I know you can't.
Ji-hoon's mom is the best cook, Daddy's next and you're the last.
- Ji-hoon's mom? - Yes, she's the best cook.
Everyone will bow down to me if I really started cooking.
- Why would they? - What?
I guess we do go to same places... Yoo-jin!
- I hear you're a great cook. - Pardon?
Song-yi tells me you're the best cook.
I'm not...
She is. My mom is a great cook.
I should take some lessons from you.
I'm not very good...
You're alone today. You always came with your husband.
He's busy...
You must come shopping with your husband often.
- Yes, We did often. - It's not true!
Look at this mess.
Beep!
What about this one?
Get it out of my face. I'm busy.
What could keep an unemployed man busy?
You should have a better eye for makeup since you're a homemaker.
I'm no longer a homemaker.
You have to share the responsibility since we got into a fight because of you.
What about this one?
She'll only go flirt with other men
even if you buy her this.
The things you say--- You should buy one for your wife.
Something bright for spring. Women need to
- maintain their looks. - For whose sake?
She'll only attract scumbags if she looks good.
You're in no situation to be suspicious of your wife.
You shouldn't say about your wife like that
What do you mean by that?
To put it bluntly, you have that thing going on with Yoo-jin.
What? That's not the same.
You're always hanging out with her at the market and cooking class.
It's because we have the same life pattern.
And there were no exchange of gifts.
It's not same relationship with that gives a necklace worth more than $1 000
It's romance in your case, but an affair in theirs?
- You are the man - Shut it.
What time do food carts open?
- They have no set time. Why? - I think I left something there.
- Yes, Mother-in-law. - Are you busy today?
Pardon?
Why...?
I know it's been hard on you.
Of course I know it's not easy for a man to be a homemaker.
To be honest, I haven't been nice to you.
No, Mother...
I've always criticized you since you married Mina.
I have never said a kind word to you.
I'm sorry.
You're really making me feel bad now.
I should admit my mistakes
and apologize, even if I am your mother-in-law.
I must've said some things to you that I shouldn't have.
Just hit me. Should I go down on my knees right here?
Know this.
You must know, but Mina would never fool around on you.
It's usually misunderstandings that test a marriage.
I don't want to be suspicious for no good reason.
But no matter how I think about it,
she shouldn't have accepted that necklace. Should she?
No matter what the reason, it was her fault for accepting that necklace.
But I'm worried you'd do Mina wrong because of that.
That's all
Do you know what kind of thought I had when Mina's father passed away?
I wished I'd been nicer to him.
Why we should always fight---
That's how married couples are.
I've lived 30 years with him, but I only remember what I did wrong.
Be good to each other now so you'll have no regrets later.
- Hello. - We're not open yet.
I left a notebook here last night. didn't you see it?
- You're that man. - Yeah
It looked important so I put it away safely.
You should take better care of a diary.
Diary?
He said he'd take care of the house in my place.
I was happy and grateful, but at the same time it broke my heart.
It was sad to see proud
Soo-han in aprons.
I told him I have to make money at least,
but can't get any work done
thinking about him staying home alone.
But I can't let it stop me.
The livelihood of our family rests on my shoulders.
I should work harder for Soo-han and Song-yi.
Go, Choi Mina.
Mr. Ha praised me for the first time today.
I was ecstatic.
It's a joy I've never felt when I stayed home.
No one praises you no matter how hard you work at home.
And that thought made me feel sorry for Soo-han at home.
I was grateful to him for letting me work.
Soo-han, I'm sorry.
I love you.
Song-yi, what was that "beep" about?
She's always organizing when she goes to the market.
So Daddy made up that rule.
- He did? - Yes
When we say "beep," she has to stop.
- She got a lot better now. - Really?
When did you and my husband get so close?
You must come shopping with your husband a lot.
Mom!
You didn't give that back to Mr. Koo yet?
- No, he's busy. - I wish he wasn't busy.
- Mom, let's box. - I can't.
- Why not? - Do it like he did.
- Like this. - Like this?
Then you do it.I'll take pictures.
It's passionate red. It's my favorite color.
- You like it? - Yes, I love it.
You have good taste.
So pretty.
You want to wear that lipstick--- and kiss?
Until our teeth fall out...
What are you saying? Our teeth can't fall out....
Why isn't he coming home?
Possibly---
He can't be... No, he can't.
How about a beer at the playground?
Playground? What's he up to now?
What's up?
Nothing. I just wanted to have a beer with you alone.
Really...?
It feels embarrassing--- giving flowers to a flower...
What are these?
I just bought them--- they looked so pretty.
Why are you doing this all of a sudden?
Did you do something wrong?
I did. I wronged you in so many ways.
Which brings me to the subject... Mina, don't stay home tomorrow.
Then where should I stay?
You should go back to work from tomorrow.
They didn't process your resignation yet They couldn't find your replacement.
Why the sudden change...
I'd love to try the pizza you come up with...
Thanks. Let's go in now.
Why is he buying me flowers and telling me to go to work?
Men are nicer to their wives when they're having affairs...
What's this?
KOO SOO-HAN'S BLOG
When did he make this?
I thought she'd be happy if I told her to go back to work.
Maybe I should've bought her makeup like Suk-joon said.
They have entered to the same cooking school?
Ji-hoon likes boxing now thanks to Soo-han.
He wants to box every day now.
Teach me boxing again later.
This is a great movie.
The woman leaves for Rio at the end.
That's the great part.
Sweet and sour fish is good for eczema.
The first dish I made with a new friend.
You can make it with fish. Daddy made it for me.
Have some fruit.

Welcome to Useful Tips for Everyday Life with Koo Soo-han.
Hello.
Let's give this to Mom.
Try this. It's really good.
It's too hot!
When your mouth is burning after eating spicy food...
- Never fear! - Never fear!
Capcisin which gives that burn is fat soluble
and you can't wash it away with water.
Assistant!
Rinse your mouth with milk.
Or put a piece of bread in your mouth and chew slowly.
If you don't have any milk or bread,
you can also eat rice to get rid of the burn.
- You should have some too. - No, it's all right.
This has been Useful Tips for Everyday Life.
See you next week.
Thinking each other for a minute. It'll cool the heat of the fight.
