Jung-eun Nam!
you don't go to home?
I'm going now.
bye.
oh,
how about dinner together?
I liked the hand-made noodles last time.
I'm buying.
you're eating hot stuff very well.
you said, hot foods will bring good luck to me.
so I changed myself.
oh,
how was your blind-date the other day?
that's my private life. you don't have to know about it.
you're laughing at me?
no, I'm not laughing.
you don't have to feed your cat tonight?
no.
no need to feed it any more.
why?
is it dead?
what?
how can you say like that?
he's not dead!
no matter how much love you gave to your cat,
it just doesn't appreciate your love,
it scratches your face, and.. just gives you headaches!
cats are like that, somebody told me.
you can find another cat, then.
no, I don't want..
some other cat.
you loved your cat so much, didn't you?
but I'm happier now without your cat!
say what?
why are you happy with that?
now I can have dinner with you everyday from now, that's why.
I'm sorry?
Jung-eun Nam,
you're home. why don't you get off?
( I'm sorry.. )
( don't cry.. )
( now I'm back here for you.. )
( now I know that.. )
Jung-eun! I want my dinner!
( I can't be happy without you.. )
( when you're holding me tight.. )
( I can hear.. )
( I can hear you breathing.. )
( it feels so good.. )
( I could almost cry.. )
( now I'm back here for you.. )
( I can see your tears here.. )
( it's breaking my heart.. )
( but now it's okay.. )
( you're the biggest gift.. )
( from the sky to me.. )
( I couldn't say.. )
( 'I love you' to you.. )
( I was like a fool.. )
( but after I lost you.. )
( I realized that.. )
( I really loved you.. )
( yes, you're the one.. )
( you're the one who really knows me.. )
( now I've got to say.. )
( 'I'm sorry' to you.. )
( to Kyung-min I'm so sorry. hope you to study hard. from Jung-eun )
( you don't have to say.. )
( you love me.. )
( because I know you do.. )
( I'm so happy now.. )
( 'cause you came back to me again.. )
( you're the biggest gift.. )
( from the sky to me.. )
Jung-eun..
( daily plan )
Jung-eun!
Jung-eun~
I'm here~
I came back to my old man's house, but..
I had a big dispute with him as soon as I came into the house!
oh, old people are so.. I can't have conversation with 'em!
and he wanted me to get out.
so I have no place to go again.
Jung-eun, ya ya ya!
we need to talk. we gotta clear misunderstanding!
ground packs after the rain! our relationship is also like that!
Jung-eun!
please!
why are you crying?
you missed me?
you should've called me! then I could've come back little more earlier.
you got so bored without me, right?
you missed me alot?
Jung-eun~
yes, I missed you..
people miss their missing dogs & cats.
they miss their pets..
after they lost it.
they got so afraid that their pets might be starving..
oh, my pillow's still here!
I forgot to throw it away.
you forgot?
that's good for me. I can use it tonight.
feels so good!
ya,
you think my home is a motel for you?
you check in whenever you want,
and check out whenever you want?
ya,
forgive me~
I'm not gonna be here for free. I'll help you with some money.
my old man promised to give me some monthly allowance.
ya, you gotta pay your debt back first.
you don't have to help me now.
right, you're right.
I gotta have a shower.
I've been wandering around two days in a row. today, I think I need to study overnight.
- overnight? - yeah.
you..
want me to make something to eat for you?
yeah! that's the answer!
I gotta thank you, then! make something delicious for me, okay?
you got up early!
yeah.
- delivered newspapers? - yeah.
give me just a min.
I'll make your breakfast.
you don't have to deliver papers anymore.
peeling garlic either.
what are you saying? we need money.
my salary is for paying your debt back. don't you know that?
I know, but..
I'm worried 'bout your health. you're working too hard..
we can pay my debt back little slower..
thank you. I'll think about it.
prepare the table. breakfast's ready.
oh..
our breakfast is always like..
'green grass of home~'
have some tofu in the chige(=stew).
it contains good amount of protein. it's good for a student like you!
I don't usually eat tofu in chige.
don't usually eat it? no way! eat it!
no!
eat it!
( how to make chicken-ginseng soup )
hello?

2 sandwiches & a cup of coffee..
and your favorite beverage?
you can work overtime tonight, can't you?
work overtime?
we gotta finish the presentation file for tomorrow.
hope you can help me.
overtime?
this morning, you didn't say you're gonna work overtime tonight.
I didn't know it's gonna be like this then.
so you have dinner by yourself, okay?
( are you really working overtime? )
you think I'm lying to you?
bye!
oh..
she hung up the phone!
okay, you're so great..
you're so great!
I'm hungry~
I want some rice.. but no rice..damn!
what happened?
what?
oh,
I saw a cockroach!
oh gosh! where is it?
kill it now! I hate bugs!
okay.
don't worry.
it just went out of this room.
Jung-eun,
Jung-eun Nam!
hello,
hello?
( yes. )

is it Jung-eun Nam's cell-phone there?
she can't answer your call right now.
why not?
call back later.
hello..
damn! what kind of shit is he?
Jung-eun Nam!
I said, you can't come in!
why? why can't I come in? tell me!
not everybody's allowed to come in.
oh..
mister,
I don't wanna work here! even if they want me to do.
I just want to see Miss Jung-eun Nam! who's working in this company!
hey man, look,
there's no name like hers on this employee list!
go away!
okay, bye. I'm leaving.
chief! please don't!
let me do this.
I said, don't!
I can take care of it..
no!
see? it's done.
oh, you made it! I didn't think you can make it.
you didn't?
you seem to be a machine-illiterate.
I'm also good at other things..
such as?
cooking..
and cleaning my house.
I can clean my kitchen to be just sparkling!
- want some coffee? - sure.
let me get it.
thank you.
oh, Jung-eun! you're here!
oh, you're..
ayu..
I'm sorry.
it's alright.
you okay?
are you okay?
I'm okay.
I didn't mean to do this..
chief,
you really okay?
I'm okay, don't worry.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to do that.
it's alright. see you tomorrow.
what're you doing now?
ya,
you said your chief is a cool guy.
but look at him! he's just like a fool.
oh, he got angry..
what if he got angry at me and starts to hate me?
if he's like that, that means he's a jerk.
don't you think so?
why did you come here and put me in trouble?
whose side are you on?
you're on his side?
I'm on nobody's side! I'm not a kid!
let's go home.
ya,
I can't find a washed t-shirt there.
no?
I'm so busy these days.
sorry I didn't have time to wash 'em.
you can use the washing machine. it saves your time.
I'm using it only for big & tough clothes.
electricity is expensive, you know. I still can wash small ones by hand.
I need to buy some new shirts.
I can't remember when was the last time I bought new clothes.
boys don't complain about clothes.
wear what you wore yesterday once more.
oh it smells..
go to the department store and fill these report.
it's very important..
for our business, okay?
me going to the dept. store alone?
you want me to come with you?
uh?
oh, no..
good luck.
and you can go home directly from dept. store after you finished your work.
well, by the way..
is it alright.. on your forehead?
alright.
if it had been unpleasant to you,
let me apologize to you for yesterday's thing.
it's alright.
and tell your boyfriend..
no, tell your older cousin that 'I'm okay'.
uh?
see you tomorrow.
oh, it's exactly the same one with what he used to have.
excuse me, you have this on size 105?
yes, we have.
how much is it, by the way?
it's 215,000 won.
oh my!
just forget it.
how could he buy this expensive shirt?
what are you doing here?
I'm making a report.
making a report?
who's she?
oh, you're the one who's working in Dong-june's company.
how are you?
I'm going to the men's apparel section.
sure.
what is that?
- let me see. - no!
you better use korean, not english.
you mis-spelled the word, 'elegance'.
give it back to me!
I'm so sorry~
you're working in his company longer than I expected.
good luck, I gotta go.
where are you now? in the library?
come home early today. I'm preparing a special dish for you!
see you soon! bye!
( how to make chicken-ginseng soup )
who are you, girl?
who are you, ma'am?
my grandson's living here.
oh yeah?
how do you do?
let me introduce myself to you. I'm a friend of Kyung-min's.
friend?
yes!
I live in this neighborhood.
Kyung-min called me to make some chicken-ginseng soup today..
you live in this neighborhood?
want some cold water?
do you already know where's the bottled water?
oh,
yes! I know!
'cause I've been here before.
oh I gotta put this in the fridge.
let me take care of it.
full of don-katsu(pork cutlet) in it.
it's Kyung-min's favorite.
so tell him not to share his don-katsu with anybody, okay?
okay.
by the way,
what do you study?
are you also a law student?
no..
I graduated 3 yrs ago and now I'm preparing to get a job..
you said you're Kyung-min's friend. how come you already graduated?
uh..I'm not from 4 yrs college..
I see, you're from 2 yrs college..
by the way, what do your father do for living?
uh, he's a police officer..
police?
don't close the door. it's hot today.
oh yeah?
but I wanna close this.
seems like Kyung-min is coming home late today..
I wish he come home early before you leave..
I can wait.
this is my grandson's place. I can even stay here tonight.
what?
how about you? you don't have to come home?
oh, that's..
you might get bored here alone. so I'm here to have some talk with you..
I don't think I can have some fun with you.
go back to your home before it's too late.
oh,
excuse me for leaving first, then.
okay.
- good bye. - bye.
well,
sorry for disturbing you, but..
stop boiling it after 30 mins..
I know.
Kyung-min! it's me!
bad news!
your granma's here!
granma!
you came?
you should've called me before you come here!
why? to help you to hide the girl?
what?
you must be crazy!
oh, it hurts! why are you beating me up?
why? you don't know why?
who is she? her hair's like..
like this, and.. she looks just like..
like this. the horribly skinny girl. who the hell is she?
oh, you're talking 'bout Jung-eun!
she's just my friend!
just friend? you must be insane!
you should concentrate on your study! how can you flirt with a girl?
oh granma,
don't get the situation wrong. she's not an important person to me.
she's just..helping me.
I allowed her to live here.
as a house maid for me!
cooking for me.. washing my jeans for me..
believe me!
okay, can she cook well?
yeah, she can!
she's the eldest daughter from a big family.
she's a natural born house-maid! she's so strong, you know.
doesn't she interfere with your study?
no! she doesn't! and she can't! although we're living under the same roof,
our lives are totally separate ones.
how come she's using the main room? this is your house!
'cause it's hot in summertime!
it's really hot in the main room.
if your granpa got to know about this, you're gonna be a dead meat!
you know that?
I know..
granma! let's go have dinner! I'm buying!
no! chicken-ginseng soup is boiling there.
we can have it together.
chicken-ginseng soup?
want some more?
no.
oh..
I've had enough.
this chicken is too small to eat..
I gotta go.
tell her to wash these dishes.
okay.
Kyung-min,
as a guy, you can always meet a new woman.
don't ever make any kind of promise to her.
understand?
okay, I understand. we're just friends!
the stupidest thing a guy can do is..
making his life messed up with a girl.
you know what I'm saying?
okay, okay.
and tell her to do dishwashing right!
those lids have some dirt on 'em!
dirt?
oh, she's got lazy these days..
- okay, I'll tell her about it. - good.
I'm leaving.
I'll take you to the taxi stop.
where are you now?
wash it right.
it's not my fault, it's your fault!
I always wash it to be clean.
but you always put your ramen on this lid and don't wash it!
is that so..?
hello?
okay. see you there.
who was it?
it was..Yong-june.
Yong-june wants to see me tomorrow!
what happened? you're not eating.
I don't feel like eating today.
don't worry 'bout me. you have your dinner.
I'm thinking about coming to see how Kyung-min's doing in his new place.
oh!
you shouldn't!
I shouldn't? I'm his grandfather!
you don't have to come to see him!
I'm visiting his place everyday and helping him.
you don't need to waste your time. and don't interfere with his study.
don't ever visit his place!
didn't you say to me that I should go and see him?
don't ever think about it.
okay?
okay.
Hye-ryun!
this is for you.
what is this?
I was so sorry for you about last time.
I spent so much time finding a good one for you.
hope you like it.
you don't have to buy this for me..
I hurt you so much last time..
I've been worried about you..
oh..
I'm alright. you don't have to be worried 'bout me..
oh, it's 'ALBANY'!
it's my favorite brand!
is it?
we have similar tastes!
yes, we do!
oh, 'ALBANY'..
everybody buy one! everybody!
just 10,000 won! ( = $10 )
everything's 10,000 won! special price!
it's 1-day special price! only for today!
just 10,000 won?
yes, just 10,000!
ya, how do I look?
where did you get that?
'ALBANY' indeed is my style! looks so good on me!
your brother took the exactly same one from me last time.
who bought that for you?
my granma did.
does your granma buy you those luxurious clothes?
she does! she's like an angel!
don't put this into the washing machine, okay?
it needs to be dry-cleaned.
dry-cleaning is expensive. that's just a t-shirt.
no, it's not one of those cheap t-shirts! it needs dry-cleaning.
it's a luxury shirt, you know.
you know nothing about luxury stuffs..
by the way, I'm hungry.
what is that on your hand?
is it some snack?
no, nothing.
nothing?
hey, share your snack with me!
( AMPOLOLIA ALBANY )
ya,
my granma's don-katsu is the best in the world.
have some.
I'm okay.
you don't have ketchup?
don-katsu goes so well with ketchup!
go get it by yourself.
I don't know where it is.
oh!
we gotta buy a new one! there's nothing in it!
nothing? no!
you can squeeze it.
ya!
ya ya ya ya!
you spilt ketchup on it! do you have any idea how expensive it is?
don't squeeze ketchup! but a new one!
I'm sorry. I'll wash it tomorrow.
tomorrow?
I gotta see Hye-ryun tomorrow with this on!
Hye-ryun?
she bought it for you?
yes, she bought it for me!
so what?
you hate this shirt? because she bought it for me?
how can you do this to it?
I know you split ketchup on it on purpose!
ya, you think I'm a mean girl like that?
oh, ketchup ruined this shirt.
you're so proud of having no money for new ketchup?
yes, I have no money!
and you're living off me! you're worse than me!
oh, you..
you like everything Hye-ryun bought for you?
yes, I like it. I like everything she's buying for me!
and I like her so much!
you're always thinking about saving money!
I like Hye-ryun 2,689 times more than I like you!
I can't wear it tomorrow!
it's so annoying!
oh, it looks so dull..
here you are. it's dry-cleaned.
I'm going to school now. you don't go to work?
you go first.
you don't even say 'have a good day' to me?
have a good day.
I mean, look at my face and say it!
oh..
that's..
why did you hide it behind the miso storage?
you're so shy..
it feels good! I like it!
you like it?
looks good on you.
yeah, thank you. I'm going to school, bye!
close the door.
how come she doesn't answer my call?
this one looks good.
how much is it?
this one's 15,000 won.
and this one's 12,000 won.
good watermelons here!
oh, this one sounds good.
- I'll take this one. - that's mine.
what are you saying? it's mine.
I already paid for this one.
get some manners! it's mine!
you're talking 'bout manners? I already paid 15,000 to her!
what the hell you talking 'bout?
you're tying to beat me by your weight?
say what?
my weight?
you're so small like a bean!
oh my..
you're so proud of your fat, huh?
what a 'big dumpling' woman!
what? a big dumpling?
you're so rude!
she's talking 'bout manners? look who's talking!
who's gonna be the unlucky girl to be a daughter-in-law of her?
is she here?
Kyung-min,
I'm your granma,
I brought some meat & fruits for you.
I bought the best beef in the market! so tell her to cook it for you.
don't share it with her, okay?
and,
it's so dirty here!
so I cleaned up.
okay.
bye!
oh my, is she the granma of him?
I called her 'a big dumpling'!
I should've watched my mouth!
by the way, is my daughter a house maid for him?
what is going on here?
what's the new pot? didn't you say that you have no money?
it's not for us. it's for Jung-eun.
I'm buying these stuffs for her future marriage.
marriage? she didn't like the guy from the blind-date, did she?
father,
that's not the end of the story. we still have some hopes~
shh!
I gotta find a decent guy for her before I buy stuffs for her marriage..
oh..
those youngsters!
what?
look at this, 'a guy killed a woman who has lived with him for 3 yrs and dumped him..'
what the hell are those youngsters doing?
they should get married before they live together!
living together without getting married? they must be crazy!
they must have some reason to do that..
and we don't fully understand the way those youngsters are living their lives.. I mean, generation gap..
generation gap? I don't think so!
it's all their parents' fault!
they should've educated their kids properly!
honey,
if Jung-eun loves.. a very prospective guy so much, and..
wants to..
wants to do what?
I mean, if she wants to live with him..
just for a while! what would you say?
what would I say?
I'll break her legs and cut all her hair and make her a buddhist nun!
right, we should do that..
but father, living together is not always regarded as a morally bad thing..
in france,
almost every couple live together before they get married!
so what?
you wanna do that too?
no.
we're not in france,
we're in the republic of korea! the country of manners!
we have our own way of life here!
by the way,
why she didn't like the son of the gas station owner?
I think he's good enough for her.
I'm afraid she's having some hard time to open up her mind to guys..
she hasn't had a boyfriend so far, right?
the only guy she knows is me!
I don't think she can get a boyfriend that way.
I'm worried about her..
mom is coming?
( yes, she left for seoul. )
( be prepared. )
okay.
I'm going home.
you got some problem?
no.
why?
lately, you're always wearing a long face.
it doesn't fit you. give me some smile.
okay..
wait a sec!
here's a new cat for you.
was it funny?
with whom..
are you gonna have dinner together?
I'm gonna have it alone.
don't worry 'bout me.
I'm used to having dinner alone.
you okay?
I'm okay.
where are you now?
I'm here.
they'll gonna fix it soon.
I used to know a girl.
she's very similar to you.
I'm sorry?
she was beautiful.. just like an angel..
and when she was smiling.. oh, it was so graceful..
she's very similar to you.. when she's eating.
she can eat everything very well, just like you.
I see..
I guessed so..
she's your first love, right?
right.
where is she now?
now she's in england.
your friends are world-wide!
didn't you say your best friend is now in england too?
right, he's in england too.
he got married to the girl.
really?
and you just forgave them?
if I were you..
if you were me?
if I were you,
I'll wish them a best luck!
don't get disappointed too much,
you can find a nice woman soon.
I can help you. I'll try to find a good woman for you, okay?
okay. I'm counting on you.
okay.
somebody inside?
yes! please open the door!
you guys okay?
we're okay!
we're opening it for you.
let me go first.
you okay?
really okay?
I'm alright.
alright.
you're home.
oh..
thank you for taking me home.
bye.
you're late!
I'm hungry.
- what is that? - a present for me.
who gave it to you?
hello?
chief!
I'm alright.
don't worry 'bout me.
oh,
thank you for the cat.
bye!
is it alive?
hey, Kyung-min,
Kyung-min!
your aunt's waiting for you.
my aunt?
yes, and his son too.
my brother-in-law!
brother-in-law?
I'm jogging now.
how come you're here, by the way?
we need to talk.
talk?
- my mom's here! - your mom?
where is she?
well,
let me finish my class first, and I'm gonna change my clothes to a formal one and see your mother.
are you Kyung-min Lee?
very nice to meet you.
I'm Jung-eun's mom.
how do you do? I'm Kyung-min Lee.
I should've come to see you earlier, but..
let's have some talk.
okay.
mom,
Kyung-min!
come on in.
you come in, too.
how's..your study going on?
it's..
okay..
it's too hot in summertime..
isn't it difficult to concentrate on your study?
I guess you already know very well about the law, 'cause you're a law student.
we usually believe each other, but..
people's mind easily changes..
that's why we need some laws..
uh..
you're right..
I know you like my daughter so much.. that's way you're living with her and promised to marry her..
that's..
mom!
you shut up.
but people's mind easily changes..
so it's always good to make it official, so I brought..
a paperwork for you.
take a look, and..
stamp on it.
okay?
( a memorandum : I will marry Jung-eun Nam after I pass the bar exam. Kyung-min Lee (stamp) )
mom, you must be crazy!
what's this all about?
I said, you shut up!
it's..
what?
mother,
- in my opinion, - yeah?
I'm sorry, forgive me!
don't beat up my son!
how come she's here?
oh my,
how come you're here, ma'am?
oh, you're a daughter of this woman?
I knew it, I knew it..
mom,
what's happening?
no,
nothing.
how are you?
sorry about the last time..
I'm a big dumpling! I have nothing to say to you.
let me introduce myself, I'm her mom..
introduce yourself?
you don't have to!
mom & daughter are all the same!
by the way, where were you heading to?
uh..
I was just..
uhm..
it's good to have you here!
we can finish it today.
finish what?
no need to say more.
stamp here.
no way!
stamp here.
no!
stamp here.
no.
stamp here!
no!
ma'am!
what?
