Let's move it. Move it.
Hold on.
What type of chicken was it?
Jae Min.
I came because...
some things happened and I just couldn't let it pass.
Could we have a cup of coffee if you have the time?
I'm sorry, Master.
It won't take long.
(Episode 17)
We should order something.
I don't have much time.
I see.
I got your address and phone number through the teacher.
You didn't have to do this.
I heard that you met my husband today.
I couldn't concentrate on anything because I felt so bad.
It was a fight between kids. Don't worry about it.
But still, I'm sure you were taken aback.
Isn't your wife angry, too?
She's not someone who'd get angry at that.
I see.
I'm going to invite some kids over the weekend.
I'll try to get them to make up with each other.
Do you have anything else to say?
I have to get going.
I'm sorry...
that I left you like that.
Take care.
I'm getting punished...
for leaving someone like that.
You've been showered with the bright sunlight,
so let's take your real shower at night, Ga Ram.
I'm back, Master.
Oh, I see. Go wash your hands.
Right, do you have time this weekend?
- Why do you ask? - There is a flea market...
opening this weekend.
We can get Ga Ram's stroller and baby walker there.
Will you accompany me?
I'd love to learn your shopping philosophy on site.
Of course, I'll accompany you.
I'm afraid you'll buy unnecessary things just because they're cheap.
All right, first things first.
Cut this meat into bite-size pieces.
- Me? - Of course.
Give it a try.
What are you doing?
I'm sorry, I'm afraid of birds.
Goodness. Give it to me.
All right.
All right. This is done.
It's time for us to make...
the batter for this fried chicken.
Three tablespoons of starch, one tablespoon of soy sauce,
one tablespoon of wine, one beaten egg,
two teaspoons of minced garlic, one teaspoon of minced ginger...
and two pinches of salt.
Lastly, the secret ingredient is...
a tablespoon of mayonnaise.
- Do you really use mayonnaise? - Of course.
Mayonnaise will make the batter savoury.
All right, it's time to fry the chicken.
Okay, take a look.
The temperature should be set at 170°C.
If you can't take the temperature, drop a bit of batter in the oil.
If it splatters when you drop it,
- That's hot. - that's when you can start frying.
- Do you understand? - I'll fry it when the oil is hot.
That's right. It needs to splatter.
I think the oil is hot enough right now.
Good. Keep that in mind when you cook next time.
Why do you keep taking pictures?
I'm an artist who wants to preserve my work.
Okay.
Master.
I...
I love...
I respect you.
I get that a lot. I'm getting sick of it.
Where did you get that fried chicken?
This is my student's first dish.
Well, I did most of it.
Your student?
Are you teaching again?
No, the guy who lives above can't do anything.
I am teaching him a few things about housework.
What will you do if Ye Eun finds out?
It's just for an hour a day.
She doesn't want us to associate with them.
It's so nice to have a student. I feel a lot better.
It's just for an hour, so it should be okay.
Of course, would you like to try some?
This is good.
Mr Kim is lucky to have a teacher like you.
He said that he respects me.
He was born to be a teacher, but he's working at a restaurant.
What a pity. I feel so bad for him.
You should've asked me to do it.
If I did, you'd run over to tell on me to Mr Oh.
"Mr Kim made me bring him coffee."
Please don't get me wrong.
I went to him once when you weren't in the office.
By any chance, do you need hiking gear?
Hiking gear?
I have a gift certificate, but I don't need it.
I wanted to give it to you if you wanted it.
I hike Mount Bukhan every Sunday,
but all my clothes are very old. It is a bit embarrassing.
Apparently, hiking attires have their own trend.
- In that case, I'll give it to you. - All right.
Isn't it tiring to go hiking every weekend?
- Do you leave early in the morning? - Of course.
It's tiring to wake up at 6am every single Sunday.
I go hiking on Sundays, too.
I get knocked out afterwards.
I couldn't care less about you.
Just give me that gift certificate.
Okay, he goes to Mount Bukhan every Sunday.
You look great. That really suits you.
I'll take this.
Wait, do you also sell gift certificates?
- Of course. - I'll take that, too.
I'll pick up the clothes at night.
Okay.
You must be really desperate to bribe me like this.
Hey.
What is that envelope? Is that a bribe?
- Bribe? - Mr Kim,
I know that you receive special treatment from our vendors.
What are you talking about?
I was just kidding. Why are you so angry?
You know what? I'm actually a bit flustered.
Watch your mouth.
Move.
Does Dung Kim really receive bribes from people?
Mr Yoo, are you innocent?
What? Me?
Don't look at me like that.
Do I look that bold to you?
No, you don't.
Sir. I'm upset with Mr Kim.
What's wrong now, Mr Choi?
Do you know how many projects he was involved with?
I'm about to die from doing his work.
What can I do? All of his project proposals were excellent.
Wait, are you jealous...
because he was promoted faster than you?
I'm not jealous.
He's not the only one with kids.
But he acts like he's the best father in the world.
He didn't go on childcare leave.
He went on a paid vacation.
He's getting paid for resting.
My goodness.
Mr Choi was always jealous of Mr Kim.
They came in at the same time, but Mr Kim was promoted before him.
I can say I'm sorry only so many times.
Just ignore him. You can't make everyone happy.
Hey, do you know who Sang Gu's mum is?
I heard he goes to Bang Geul's school.
How do you know her?
We went to the same high school.
I met her at a reunion last week. She lives in your neighbourhood.
My goodness.
You have to save me.
I hope you didn't invite Ms Joo to the kids' party.
I did.
Why did you invite her? You never know what she'll do.
It's a kids' party. She can't do much harm.
You still don't know what she's capable of, do you?
- Is that it? - Yes.
- Let's go. - Hold on.
What's wrong?
I feel so small in front of a stay-home mum.
- Hurry up. - Hold on.
I'm not ready yet.
Hold on. Don't run.
It's such a small world.
I can't believe that you live in the same neighbourhood.
Exactly.
Please help her out from time to time. She's a good person.
Why would you ask me to do that?
I heard you're the leader among all the mums.
Sang Gu is really smart, right?
I heard that as well. I heard he's a prodigy.
What are you talking about?
He's just average.
If he's average, what would that make our children?
Working mums like us would never be able to be like you...
even if we tried.
Working mums tend to look down on mums that stay at home,
but we have a lot to say about that.
It's not easy raising kids while doing the housework.
I agree. On that note, would it be possible for you...
to go over to her house this weekend and show her a few pointers?
I'm inviting some of the kids to my place this weekend.
If the mums are free, it'll be great for them to come along.
Sure, I'll bring them over.
- Really? - Yes.
You're so lucky.
She wouldn't pass on her knowledge to just anybody.
I wish I could go,
but I have to be at my in-laws for a memorial service.
I'll grab another snack. Give me a minute.
It's all right. Thank you.
Thank you.
Make sure you're at your best.
We have to do everything we can as working mums.
You're home.
Where's Min Ho?
He's at the academy. What's that?
I bought an outfit to go hiking in.
I'm going to take up hiking.
Why would you go hiking?
Mr Oh hikes in his spare time.
I have to make a good impression.
Don't underestimate hiking. Don't you know...
how hard it is?
- I'll be fine. - You won't be fine.
You might even strain your muscles. Don't go hiking.
Is there a reason I can't go hiking?
No, it's nothing like that.
I'm just worried about you.
It's not like I want to go.
It's something my superior likes to do so I have no other choice.
I wish I didn't have to do this.
Why hiking all of a sudden?
What if she ends up coming to the restaurant?
How long are you going to ignore me?
Are you reading that lame recipe book again?
Have you started studying Japanese?
Let's see how good you are. Say something in Japanese.
Fine, I was mistaken.
Your behaviour were misleading though.
If you didn't act suspicious,
I wouldn't have tailed you to the studio.
Gosh, that woman...
Eun Sol.
Bang Geul is hosting a party this Saturday.
Have fun at her place.
At Bang Geul's place?
Can I go, Dad?
Okay. Only for an hour though.
Can I really go?
Of course, you can.
Enjoy your dinner, Eun Sol.
Where are you going in the middle of dinner?
Why is this so salty?
How great is this restaurant that we had to take a bus here?
It's so popular.
There won't be a table available if we don't hurry up.
Slow down.
I have to watch my back.
- Hurry up. - Goodness.
We're so lucky. There's a table.
Can we sit here?
Sure.
What would you like to order?
What are you doing here?
Well... That's...
I get bored in the evenings so I come here to kill time.
You work as a babysitter all day,
and you still get bored in the evening?
Please have a seat.
Do you know her?
Didn't I tell you about her?
Jae Min hired a babysitter.
She's the babysitter?
That woman must be desperate for money.
She babysits during the day and works here in the evenings.
What if she slacks off when she babysits?
She must get tired at her age.
Hey, get a new babysitter.
What do you mean?
That woman works at a restaurant during the evenings.
Ms Ok does?
It's okay. It's up to her if she wants to work there.
She's old. If she tires herself out in the evenings,
she won't look after the kids properly.
Why are you out so late at night?
You have to watch your back.
Then you should buy me galbi!
Fine.
I'll take care of it. I'll talk to you later.
Ms Ok must be tired.
I know.
Ms Joo probably doesn't know about this, right?
Of course not. Her ego won't allow her mum to work as a waitress.
There isn't a family that doesn't worry about money.
(Mozzarella cheese, yoghurt, eggs)
What's all this?
I invited the mums over too, so I have to do some grocery shopping.
Cancel everything.
What? Why?
It's much cheaper to buy groceries at local supermarkets.
I'll go grocery shopping tomorrow.
You're getting good at this.
My goodness.
You work so hard for the family,
so I need to be frugal.
You're right.
It feels like we have to pay bills all the time.
Exactly.
(Unrealistic Zoo)
(Art Park Exhibition, June 26 to August 5)
Why aren't you in bed?
It's nothing.
Ms Lee.
Don't worry.
I won't tell Ms Joo.
I'm sorry if Mother embarrassed you last night.
You didn't have to say you were our babysitter.
Don't worry about that.
Please take care of yourself.
Mother was fine until her back went out all of a sudden.
I'll get going.
She doesn't look like the type of person to dislike Ye Eun.
(Art Exhibition Ticketing)
Goodness.
Do you go to art galleries?
I was just looking.
You're both working mums but you two are so different.
Have you even been near an art exhibition?
I don't even expect something as fancy as an art exhibition.
I'll be lucky if I get to watch an episode of a drama.
Oh, dear.
- Come on in. - I thought everybody was coming.
Why is it just you two?
The rest are busy making dinner for their kids right now.
I told them to take their time.
I see.
Are you all heading to Bang Geul's tomorrow?
Of course. We have to go if Sang Gu's mum says so.
We don't have a say.
What should I do with these?
What is it?
- Well, this is... - Yes?
This is a lot of work, isn't it?
- Mum. - Yes?
What are you making?
I'm making your favourite, japchae.
My gosh, Bang Geul.
You look amazing today.
I wore my best dress because my friends will be here.
Good job.
It's almost time. Hurry up, Mi So.
Okay.
All right, japchae is finished.
Why are you going this way?
This isn't the way to their house.
I have a reunion I have to go to.
You can't change plans like this.
I thought you weren't talking to me.
Turn the car around. We have to drop off Eun Sol.
No, everyone is there already.
I thought something was weird when he agreed in the first place.
I would never let Eun Sol be friends with someone like that.
I'm sorry, I don't think Eun Sol can make it.
I just got a text saying that Eun Sol can't come.
Really?
- Mum. - Yes?
Wasn't the party supposed to start at 1pm?
It was.
Why is everyone so late?
Can you call them?
I don't know their numbers.
You have Ms Joo's number.
Oh, you're right.
Ms Joo, where are you?
We're on our way to see an art exhibition.
An art exhibition?
Weren't you coming to our house?
I was about to, but I received these tickets.
What about Eun Sol?
Let's go.
We have to go. Goodbye.
I wanted to go to Bang Geul's party.
You can play with her next time.
I don't think it's right for all of us to abandon her party.
That's not true. Eun Sol will be there.
We have to see this exhibition.
Of course.
- Let's go. - Let's go in.
- It's so good to be out. - It is.
Mum, I want to change.
Bang Geul, we can invite your friends next time.
Why don't the three of us have fun today?
- What should we do? - I...
can't take this any more.
What will you do?
Ms Joo will...
pay for this.
Mi So.
What will you do?
I can't go to the art exhibition,
so I'll wait here until she comes.
You don't know when she'll be here.
I'll wait here until she returns.
You should go back inside. Our kids are alone.
- Just let it go. - How can I let it go?
Bang Geul was deeply hurt.
I don't care about how she treats me at work.
But how can she do this to Bang Geul?
Did she have to go to the art exhibition today?
I wonder how the party is going.
Why did you leave the party?
The party was cancelled.
Why?
My wife and Min Ho left a while ago.
They went to see an art exhibition.
- What? - Goodbye, then.
Wait, Mr Kim.
The flea market I told you about is held today.
I was going to take you after the party.
Let's do that the next time.
I can't afford to go today.
All right.
Ye Eun did it again.
Hi. Ms Lee.
Hello.
Ms Lee, I wanted to go to the party,
- but my mum made me... - What are you saying?
Min Ho,
I have to talk to your mum.
Can you go home by yourself?
Okay.
What is it?
I don't care what you do to me or how you treat me.
You don't care? Is this how you speak to me now?
If you want to be respected, show some respect.
What did I do?
You called everyone but me to Mrs Cinderella's studio.
Well, I let that pass because you insisted that you sent a text.
But...
isn't it too low even for you to hurt a child?
What are you saying? I didn't hurt anyone.
You brought them to the exhibition knowing that they were invited here.
Why would I do that?
Because you're greedy.
You don't like it when things work out for me.
I don't care about you, Ms Lee.
Why are you doing this to me?
What did I ever do to you?
I don't want to hate you.
But you keep doing this,
so I can't help but hate you and be scared of you.
What are you saying, Ms Lee?
I told you that my daughter isn't a bad person.
No,
- today... - Ye Eun...
said nothing when I brought your children over to sleep.
How can you say that to her?
I thought better of you.
Don't speak like that when you know nothing about her.
I'm sorry.
Let's go.
I was really sad.
I never even had a chance to call anyone a mum.
Why did my mum abandon me?
Are you insane? How can you work as a waiter?
That was too harsh.
Should we look for your mum?
Why is Ms Joo so lucky to have a mum like her?
Did you know about this?
I don't want to ever see you again. Leave.
We are strangers from this day on.
