(Episode 65)
Bang Geul, bring anything you want to eat.
Yes!
Master.
Hey, Mr Kim.
Why are you at the grocery store?
I told you that you should shop at the farmers' market.
I never knew...
vacations were this hard.
I feel thankful that she eats lunch at school in school season.
I'm starting to get scared...
to spend time with Bang Geul all day long.
My goodness.
How is it? Is it good?
Yes, it's very good.
What's with the sour face?
The soup is lukewarm.
I should've washed the noodles more.
I should've added some more ice.
- Dad. - Yes?
Can you make me kalguksu?
Right now?
I want kalguksu.
Kalguksu.
I don't have the noodles at home.
You can make it,
because you're the best.
Yes, I am.
- I'll bring it. - Okay.
I'll take them.
- All right. - I'll take some, too.
- Should we go? - Should we?
- Is there any problem? - No.
Add a lot of it.
- Here comes spaghetti. - We have spaghetti.
Here you are.
We made the tomato sauce with our own recipe.
Will you taste it and see if you like it?
- It smells great. - Does it?
We have your food. Enjoy your meal.
Isn't it even more refreshing with sun-dried tomatoes?
(Offline catering service)
Enjoy your meal.
I can't keep this up.
- Thank you for everything. - Great job today.
The response seems positive.
I think it's because you're here, Mr Oh.
I have something to tell you, Mr Oh.
I am...
pregnant.
Unlike Ms Lee, I won't talk about maternity leave or childcare leave.
I won't be taking any time off as I did with my first pregnancy.
Why are you telling me this?
Mr Oh, you are open-minded enough to allow...
Mr Kim to take the childcare leave.
I wanted to let you know...
before rumours begin to spread around the company.
Why are you all standing around? We should congratulate her.
- Congratulate... - Ms Joo, congratulations.
- Come on, everyone. - Thank you.
- Congratulations. - Congratulations.
Ms Joo is being smart.
She brought up that Mr Oh is open-minded...
so that he can't say anything about the fact that she's pregnant.
Mr Oh must...
care a lot about the employees.
But the other directors are not as caring as Mr Oh.
Ms Joo has to fight a huge fight starting today.
I know it very well...
because I've been through it.
- That was great. - What did Mrs Cinderella think?
Yes, Mr Kwon?
Yes. I see.
Right now?
Okay, Sir.
Did you want to see me?
Ms Joo, I heard you're pregnant.
Yes.
How could you get pregnant right before the merger?
It won't affect my performance.
Don't be ridiculous.
Apply for the voluntary resignation.
Why should I do that?
At least keep your dignity. You will be laid off anyway.
That's verbal abuse.
What verbal abuse?
When Ms Lee was pregnant, what were your words?
Didn't you say, "You are asking to be fired"?
Is it okay for Ms Lee to be fired...
but not okay for you?
A lot of people are being laid off.
Do you think your co-workers will...
have sympathy for you when you come to work pregnant?
I will not voluntarily leave the company.
We'll see about that.
How co-workers respond will be scarier than any rules.
- I should put this in, right? - Yes, that should go in.
What did Mr Kwon say to you?
I am sure he said the obvious.
That's why it's good to maintain good relationship with everyone.
What do you mean?
You talked behind Ms Lee's back when she was pregnant.
Back then, I am sure you had no idea that you would be pregnant.
Why do you look at her that way?
At least our team should be supportive of Ms Joo.
Let's get back to work. We have to go out and serve again tomorrow.
- Yes. - Yes.
What are you doing, Mr Jang?
Are you trying to give me bribery while I am drunk?
- No. I was just... - What do you think I am?
Do you think I can be bribed?
Last time, you had no problem with it.
Do you know how much I suffered because of you last time?
What do you think, Mr Oh?
Don't you think...
that's enough to prove my innocence?
While this may not be a problem,
how are you going to handle what Mr Kim brought up last time?
I have him by the collar right here.
He told me he would testify that he did the same last time.
Okay. I will meet the members of the disciplinary committee.
Thank you, Mr Oh.
However,
we need to wait for the right moment.
The right moment?
If they believe your innocence,
shouldn't you return in the most dramatic way?
Do you have a plan?
I have a sure-fire plan to keep Mr Kim from returning.
(Click to add subtitle)
I can think of something.
I must think of something.
Think.
I can't think of anything.
The at-home babysitting proposal was a great idea.
Why was it rejected?
If that proposal had been approved, I wouldn't be suffering like this.
Daddy.
Bang Geul.
- Did you finish reading the book? - Yes.
I am bored.
Really?
Do you want to watch a movie?
I am sick of that, too.
Then...
do you want to play with balloons?
I used up all the balloons.
Do you want to go to the playground?
Yes.
Okay.
Let's go.
Dad, hurry up.
Okay. Let's go.
A Woman's Story,
could you spare some time for me?
Rita is so desperate to meet me in person. What's wrong with him?
My goodness.
Dad, I am bored to death.
Do you want to cook?
We just did that.
- What should we do then? - I don't know.
Do you want to go to the playground?
Let's go right now.
Hold on.
You are so excited.
Hello, it's me.
We need someone at the shared babysitting.
Could you come right now?
I see. Okay.
Have you finished memorising "Let It Go"?
No, but I memorised a lot.
Mr Kim.
- Master. - Hi.
Bang Geul.
Min Ho, let's go on the swing.
Okay.
Let's sit down.
When is the summer vacation over?
It just started.
We can't keep coming out to the playground in this weather.
How can we survive this very long vacation?
Let's register them for the hands-on learning camp together.
School website posted the list of places to visit during the vacation.
There were so many places. Do we have to visit all of them?
We have to go to those places to use up all the time.
It was better when school was in session.
Taking care of three meals a day is so difficult, too.
I am cooking all day long.
I just wish the menu was simple.
They ask for so many different kinds of food.
Should we petition for the elimination of vacations...
to the education ministry?
Do not crush children's dream.
Just consider it a cry for freedom from a desperate homemaker.
- Dad. - Dad.
Why are you back so soon?
It's boring.
It's too hot.
We're bored.
Play with us.
Let's sit down.
Let me use your laptop.
- Go ahead. - Thank you.
Children, let's register for the hands-on education programme.
Hands-on education is boring.
I agree.
Can't we go somewhere fun?
Let's go on a trip, Dad.
- A trip? - Yes.
My friends all go on different trips.
Let's go on a trip, too, Dad.
Bang Geul, do you want to go together?
Sure, where should we go?
Should we go to Jeju Island?
- Bang Geul. - That sounds awesome!
When should we go? Tomorrow?
Min Ho.
Can we go tomorrow, Dad?
You need to make reservations to go to Jeju Island...
for flight tickets and rooms.
Then do it.
It's hard to make reservations because so many people are there.
We needed to make reservations way before.
Really?
I will check other places.
I really want to go to Jeju Island.
Me, too. I've never been there.
Me, neither.
How can we deal with those...
who have never been to Jeju Island?
Should we enrol in recreation classes?
(What's your score as a dad?)
I am home.
If I do the things on the list,
I can become a good father?
That survey was created by 100 fathers.
I am sure you will become a better father than before.
Are you going to try?
I've never failed at anything in my life.
If I put my mind to it, I can do everything on this list.
"First, tell your child that you love her everyday."
- Mum. - Hi, Eun Sol.
Did you have fun at the academy?
Yes.
Dad drove me there.
I see.
Eun Sol.
I love...
Why...
can't you say it?
Well, I...
must have something caught in my throat.
Why is it so hard for you to say that?
I've never told anyone such things.
No wonder you are so cold-hearted.
That's not the only thing on the list.
I will start with something else.
You have hard time saying those three words.
Do you think other things will be easy for you?
There are a lot of easy things here.
Look, this one is good.
"Do not use an authoritative tone of voice."
Let's see you do it.
This looks so good.
Ori, you should wash your hands first.
Eun Sol.
I asked them...
and there is a spot in the balloon art class.
Really? I can go with Bang Geul and Yu Ra.
You can start the day after tomorrow.
I will prepare some snacks for you.
- Okay. - Okay.
You shouldn't pick on your weaker friends.
All right.
Eun Sol.
How many times are you watching this?
It's interesting.
Why don't you watch something else?
You still have ones you haven't seen.
Okay.
Oh, what are you doing?
When Dad talks to you, you should look at me.
I'm sorry.
I never sat down when Grandpa was talking to me.
Eun Sol.
Let's eat some snacks.
I'm not finished.
You are such a zero-point dad.
- What? - Eun Sol, come here.
He's finished. Come here.
May I go?
Yes. Go ahead.
When will she stop saying that I'm a zero-point dad?
Goodness.
I'll clean up quickly and start writing my project proposal.
All right.
I got this.
I am feeling that this is going to be huge.
Wait a second.
Wait.
Yes, this is it.
Dad, Dad.
I want some grain shake.
Okay, can you hold up a second?
I'm thirsty.
Drink some water first. I'm working.
Dad.
Bang Geul, please.
Dad, come on.
What's with you, Bang Geul?
That's overflowing.
What?
When did I turn this on?
I'm home, Bang Geul.
- Mum. - Bang Geul.
What's wrong?
I'm sorry, Bang Geul.
- Mum. - Yes?
Dad was irritated with me.
What?
I was too busy, that's why.
What did I tell you?
I told you that you'd find yourself irritated with kids, right?
Vacation is...
really scary, Mi So.
What will you do?
You still have another month.
What about Mother?
I went to see her at home, but she wasn't there.
She's not at Ms Ok's, either.
Where did she go?
Have you called her?
Of course. In the morning.
How many times did you call?
- Once. - What?
Just once?
I was really busy today.
I know you're busy, but you should be...
leaving her 100 missed calls.
You should be writing 1,000 texts to apologise.
Okay. I'll call her again.
Will you talk to Bang Geul?
- Come on. - Hurry up and call.
Okay.
(Son)
Where was I, Ms Ok?
You were talking about...
how you went to see the lady of your husband's second affair.
Yes, I went to her house and turned her place upside down.
She cried...
and told me that he was having another affair.
I still found that funny in the midst of all this.
When I went to catch him on his third affair,
two mistresses...
from his previous affairs followed right behind me.
It was such a sight.
You must've been very lonely.
It was Jae Min who held onto me whenever that happened.
I'm not sure what's gotten into him.
You should stop drinking. You drank a lot yesterday, too.
This is my best friend...
whenever I feel down, Ms Ok.
Dooli greeted him gladly.
Did she pick up?
What will you do?
You were wrong to treat her like that, Dad.
He was, wasn't he?
Grandma kept her pain quiet because she didn't want you to worry.
But you didn't even know.
Exactly.
You're right. What's with me, Bang Geul?
I miss Grandma.
Bring her back.
My goodness.
Don't be ridiculous.
Apply for the voluntary resignation.
A lot of people are being laid off.
Do you think your co-workers will...
have sympathy for you when you come to work pregnant?
Why would I care about his words?
I don't want my baby to get stressed out.
Min Ho, I'm back.
Honey.
Did something good happen?
Of course.
Mum.
Min Ho, aren't you hungry?
I'm hungry. What's for dinner?
This doenjang jjigae is really delicious.
I'm good at making them.
That's not the only thing you're good at.
His bulgogi is awesome, right?
Yes.
Eat up.
Anyway, why are you feeling so great today?
I told people at work that I am pregnant.
Are you allowed to do that? Ms Lee had a tough time, didn't she?
I'm fine. I told Mr Oh before he told me off.
He has to cover for me now.
That's a relief.
Oh, right.
I told Mrs Cinderella that I am A Woman's Story.
I can finally...
discuss things openly with Mrs Cinderella.
I told you to keep your secret.
Yes.
But...
she asked me first, so I couldn't lie.
Stop eating. What if you become obese?
You two are really irritating.
She's like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
How did you know that?
Uncle Jin Seong told me.
Really? Do you want to go watch the musical?
He switches back and forth. It's really interesting.
How can you laugh when I am this angry?
What if Mrs Cinderella tells everyone?
Honey.
You should eat some more.
No.
Don't worry. Mrs Cinderella isn't a big talker.
How do you know that?
You can see she's not that type of a person.
Honey.
How long...
will you leave Mother and Ms Lee's case hanging?
I don't want to say the same thing over and over again.
I don't want that. That can never happen.
You shouldn't do something that you'll regret later.
Why would I regret this?
Because what you're doing isn't the right thing.
I want jjambbong.
- Jjambbong? - Yes.
Jjambbong. Okay.
My goodness.
I can't even scold her...
because she's pregnant.
She's the master.
My gosh.
Excuse me.
Don't worry.
I won't tell.
Don't tell Ms Lee, okay?
I won't.
Even if I do,
she's not someone who'd tell.
(Meeting room)
What a wonderful friendship.
Mother.
- Yes. - Mother.
Hey, you're here.
Yes. Oh, my.
Why is Ms Lee here?
She came because she was frustrated with Mr Kim.
Really? Why?
He said unpleasant things to her because of his children.
She was so disappointed that she cried through the night.
My goodness. Why did he make such a mistake?
A lot of parents and kids fight over their grandchildren.
Anyway,
- what brings you here? - Well,
I'm sorry, Mother. Ye Eun is really sensitive these days.
I can't convince her.
I thought so.
She is pregnant after all.
It would obviously upset her if I tell Mi So the truth now.
That's true.
I will somehow persuade her,
so that you can tell Ms Lee the truth.
Thank you, Il Mok.
You are a bad son.
My goodness!
- My gosh. - Oh dear.
She must be really upset.
She curses him even in her sleep.
Of course, she is.
All grandmothers care about their grandchildren.
- Hold on. - Mr Kim.
Well...
- Did Soo In leave? - Just now.
Why did you do that?
- What? - I heard that...
you told Ms Lee off about babysitting.
How did you find out?
Your mother is at my mother-in-law's.
What?
She must have drunk a lot. She's completely wasted.
Ms Ok said my mother wasn't there.
Ms Lee asked to keep it a secret.
You should go right away. She was sad even in her dream.
- I should, right? - Of course.
I will take care of the kids.
Buy her dinner and talk to her.
I will. Please take Ga Ram.
Okay.
Here you go, Ga Ram.
Hello, Mi So.
Did you hear from Mother?
She is at Ms Ok's.
- Really? - I am going there right now.
She fell asleep drunk.
Oh, no.
I don't know why she keeps going to Ms Ok's.
You have nothing to say.
I am getting off work now. Let's meet at Ms Ok's.
I can't do it by myself.
She won't listen to you. I have to go and beg her.
Okay.
It was all because of this porridge, Ms Ok.
Why? What happened?
Ga Ram is allergic to eggs.
I had no idea.
I fed him this, and he had hives everywhere.
I shouldn't have...
brought the porridge.
It wasn't your fault.
When are you going to talk to Mi So?
I should soon.
But Ye Eun is pregnant.
Really?
She is so sensitive.
If I...
tell Mi So that I am her mother,
Ye Eun will be so upset.
You still have to do it.
I am beginning to feel bad for Mi So.
Ye Eun is not your only daughter. Mi So is also your daughter.
What is she talking about?
I should tell her. I will.
Make sure you are ready when you tell her.
When Mi So finds out that you are her biological mother,
she might not want to see you any more.
Still,
time will take care of everything.
You are the mother she so desperately wanted to meet.
I hope so.
You said that Ye Eun is pregnant.
It's not like you will ignore Ye Eun.
If you take care of her through her pregnancy,
Mi So will again get envious watching that.
If she finds out that you are her biological mother...
during that time, she will be shocked.
Okay. I will talk to Ye Eun first.
I will tell her that I will tell Mi So the truth.
Yes.
Mr Kim.
What...
are you talking about, Mum?
Well...
How can Ms Ok...
be Mi So's mother?
Well... That's...
- My goodness. - What...
Ms Ok.
Mr Kim.
Mother, I am here.
Oh, no.
Hi, Ms Ok.
Hi.
