(Episode 6)
How can you make
your delicate daughter
do all this?
Where's your sense of shame?
Be quiet!
Don't do it then!
Who asked you to be here?
You'll miss dad more if you just sit here.
You need to keep yourself busy.
Stop pestering me.
Why would I miss your dad?
You're just like him.
Always full of big talk.
You got the job, and then you didn't.
How many times has it been?
Does that make you happy?
Shouldn't you comfort me at least?
Comfort? Give me a break.
It would've been absurd if
someone like you got that job.
You don't have an impressive resume,
nor are you pretty,
nor is your family rich or powerful.
Whose fault is that?
Could I afford to build a strong resume?
And I look like this because I take after you two.
So it's my fault you didn't get the job?
Good grief.
Why do you think is to blame for my hardship?
Are you saying it's my fault?
Whatever.
I don't care anymore.
Why run this pub?
It's like shoveling sand against the tide.
What am I going to do about all that debt?
The bane of my existence...
How can you smile
after dumping all this on me?
He caused me grief all his life
and then took off
without cleaning up this mess.
What am I going to do about this debt?
Would you like more side dishes?
No. We're all set.
Welcome.
One soup, please.
Coming.
What's keeping mom?
It's the lunch hour rush,
and yet she's not here.
Check, please.
Thank you.
Did you enjoy your lunch?
Yes. Thank you.
Please come again.
Ow, my back.
So is this how mom's going to be?
Midal.
What?
Is this Yeongho's debt?
Let's see.
Oh, man...
$100,000?
Oh, my goodness.
Did you know about this?
Leave it to Yeongho.
He dropped this bomb
and just left.
I don't even know where he spent
all this money.
Sure you do.
Yeongho's failed business
ventures are too many to count,
and hence this debt.
He told me this
had been squared away.
What a liar.
If I had known,
I would've made off with a little something.
What's the matter with you?
Do you think that was appropriate?
I was just saying.
Why'd you whack me?
He put me through so much,
did nothing for his daughters,
and was suffocating
from all this debt
when he passed.
Mom! Mom!
Hey. You were here too?
Is this how you two are going to be?
Do you know how nervous I was at lunch?
Customers flooded in.
I had to make soup, serve...
I barely had time to tend the register.
I told you I'd help out at the pub,
not run the whole place.
Who cares about the pub right now?
Your mom's in crisis mode.
This...
What is it?
Like you can do anything about it!
Stop making much ado about
helping out at the pub.
Just leave if you're going to be like this.
Geez. What's the point in
looking after that wretch?
Just forget about it and leave.
I can't stand the sight of you!
Nothing I do is ever enough, is it?
Why did you bring me into this world then?
To lash out at and be mean to?
I just came back
from breaking my back at work.
Just go! Go!
Hey...
Fine!
I'll go even if you ask me not to.
Hey, Bom. Bom.
Midal, why are you so mean to her?
You should feel sorry for her.
Why should I feel sorry for her?
What about me, your sister?
You can go too, you dimwit.
Go, go!
Darn it. Geez.
Midal, why stress over that?
It's simple.
Disclaim the inheritance.
Debt is an inheritance.
If you renounce it,
that's all there is to it.
Wow.
Aunt Jeongmi's something else.
I know this isn't her mess,
but how can she not even call
after seeing what happened?
How long will we stay at this motel?
Don't you have anywhere to stay?
Don't you have friends?
A motel isn't a place for a young lady.
Are you serious, dad?
It's embarrassing to tell my friends
I have nowhere to go
because we're broke.
Who is it?
Pay up
or check out.
I can't wait forever.
Get out if you don't have money!
What are we going to do, dad?
I actually hid one of my designer purses.
I don't think it has a sticker on it.
Did you hide any of your cameras?
All my cameras have seizure stickers on them.
If you're incompetent,
you should be a quick thinker.
Why didn't you hide at least one?
Geez.
Oh, my goodness.
What is this?
My bag. My purse.
Oh, no.
Truth is, this house has been seized too.
We shouldn't be here,
but Jia was so insistent.
Why didn't you tell us?
What's the point?
It's not like you can do anything about it.
I'm relieved your mom didn't have to see this.
How...
How can you say that?
That's not what I meant.
There's nothing left, absolutely nothing.
They took everything!
This blows!
I don't want to live like this!
What are going to do, Maru?
My purse.
This blows.
Hey, Kang Maru.
Long time no see.
When did you get back from the States?
It's been a few days.
Shouldn't you be in school?
Something came up.
It's good to see you.
Let's go for a drink.
We can do that later.
I have a favor to ask you.
Anything for you.
You helped me out a lot
when I was in Boston.
Let me repay you.
Do you think you can get me a job?
A job? What job?
You haven't even graduated yet.
The thing is...
My mother passed away.
Maru...
I'm sorry for your loss.
I never got the news.
Could you help me out?
Is there anything I can do here?
You know I interned
at a financial firm and
ran a volunteer group.
Kang Maru,
you've been away for so long that
you must not know how things are here.
Let me show you.
These are interns who failed
to get permanent job offers.
Do you know how many MBAs there are?
You'll be laughed at if you tout
your resume elsewhere.
I'm sorry I didn't come to the wake.
I have to go.
My limbs, shoulders, knees...
My whole body aches.
So why do this to yourself?
You can just stay put until
mom returns to work.
You're doing all the work and
being chewed out for it.
Your body's bearing the brunt of
your sense of responsibility.
If you know I'm having a hard time,
then you should be studying.
What does that have to do with anything?
Get me a medicated patch.
Huh? What's this?
It's nothing.
Are you seeing someone?
Nah, not given your nasty temper.
Get me some water.
You get it yourself.
Fine. I'll go get it.
Why hasn't he called when I'm holding
onto this expensive thing?
Hello?
Listen. You should bring me the money
if you want your ring back.
I'll call you later.
Later when?
He hung up on me again.
He has no manners.
No wonder
he got dumped.
I'm so cold.
Oh? It's Aunt Jeongmi.
Do you know how many times I called?
Are you turning your back on us
because we're bankrupt?
I'm sorry.
I'm not doing that well myself.
Why is life so tough?
Jia, I'll call you later, okay?
How can I tell them some womanizer ran off
with my apartment lease money when
I had only just divorced a cheater?
What's up with her?
How can she whine to me about her life?
Why?
Did something happen to her?
I don't know. She's drunk.
When's Maru getting back?
Geez.
You said we couldn't stay here.
Doesn't the heat work?
At least we still have electricity.
I'm starving.
Dad!
Someone's here.
Dad!
Jia, it's okay.
I'm here.
Jia. Dad.
Maru!
You should've called first.
You startled us.
Let's eat.
It looked so good that I had to get it.
You too, dad.
How did you get this?
You said you were broke.
Do you have money stashed away?
It's good. Eat.
Mighty suspicious...
Here. It's good.
It's really good.
No soup?
Wow.
It's great that we're all here
eating together.
I told you to zip it unless I say otherwise.
He's not your punching bag, okay?
Stop being mean to him.
Thanks, Ga-eul.
You're the best.
Aren't you going to school?
If you're going to waste money on
a no-name college,
just quit now
and get a job.
Look at your sister.
She was being too picky just because
she went to college,
and now she's a bum.
It's not Bom's fault she didn't get that job.
It was because dad passed away.
And she's not a bum.
She's running your pub.
You're being so unfair.
Be quiet!
How can you have an appetite?
Geez. She won't let up.
I don't get her.
Hey, did you look into it?
Right. Oh...
He pesters me even in death.
Midal, Midal.
We have a problem.
What problem?
I'm off to renounce the inheritance.
It's not that simple.
You said I just had to sign some papers.
You said debt is
an inheritance, so I just have to
renounce it.
What about the house and the pub,
which are in Yeongho's name?
And you won't get the insurance
payout either.
What? But...
Why not?
It's rightfully mine.
I lived with Yeongho for 20 years
and did my part.
So why can't I get it?
That's the law.
Why is the law so messed up?
With all that debt, why didn't Yeongho
take care of this?
Good grief.
So we'll lose this dump of a house and the pub
and end up on the streets?
When I offered to invest $1,300 in Chowon Pub,
you should have let me
and put the pub in my name.
That way, we could've kept the pub.
You're such a knucklehead.
Enough with your nonsense.
So there's no way to keep the pub and house?
There's no way.
If you want the debt
to be written off, you must give up
both the house and the pub.
If you want Yeongho's insurance payout,
you must take on the debt.
If you refuse to repay the debt,
Bom and Ga-eul will inherit the debt.
But you won't do that to them, right?
I have a headache. Ow, my head.
Get out. Get out.
There's no way out of this.
You must repay the debt if you want to live here
and keep the pub.
I told you to get out!
Okay, fine.
Ow, my head.
Aspirin.
Were's the aspirin?
Aran, you're listening to music, which means
you're having a hard time.
I wanted to do everything and anything for you,
but it's not easy.
I'm sorry.
Take it easy.
Which room is Punggildang's Chinese buyer
staying at?
They just checked out.
Pardon?
Sir!
What do you think you're doing?
Do you want to get yourself killed?
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
This is the birthplace of Punggildang wines.
Even today,
each of these jars hold
our handmade rice wine.
You already saw our high-tech plant and
the Chinese consumers' positive response
to our wine.
So you might think Punggildang
only makes modern, trendy wines.
But we place greater value in carrying on
traditional practices and spirit.
This way, please.
Isn't there depth and richness in the aroma
emanating from this jar?
There's an old Korean custom.
The host offers the guest wine,
and the guest offers the host food.
That's to say, every Korean family is
proud to offer guests wines made
according to the household's unique recipe.
In the same vein,
we make each bottle
of our wines with
care and sincerity.
I babbled when there is
good wine before us.
Please.
Your explanation has made
the wine taste sweeter.
I'd like you to forget
about the contract and just enjoy the wine.
1,000 cups do not suffice when true friends meet.
How do you know that saying?
We had the first of our 1,000 cups.
Traditional wine is what brought us together,
so we should have shared a drink sooner.
You're right.
I hope the trust and friendship we built over
the last two years
will continue for 1,000 cups to come.
Cheers.
They should both brace themselves.
Why are all the men in this house
willing to do anything for other women
but can't stand coming home to
spend time with me?
I'm home.
Hi, Taeho.
Um...
Aran told you, right?
Did you go and see Aran?
Why? Am I not allowed to see her?
I had to see her.
I provoked her to
keep her on her toes.
I told her there are still rich women in Gangnam
who want you to marry their daughters.
Why say such a silly thing to Aran?
How is it silly?
She disrespects you.
If she ends up changing her mind,
you'll be left high and dry.
So you must focus, okay?
Mom, don't worry about our engagement.
The engagement doesn't concern just you two.
I have to worry because it's a question
of two families coming together as one.
Did Aran tell you to say that to me?
No, she didn't.
Of course she did.
Does she
already have you wrapped around her pinky,
ordering you to defy me?
I'll be in my room.
Son, I'm not done...
Son. My eldest!
My eldest son!
Now he just ignores me.
Good grief.
Woe is me. Woe is me.
If my younger son were here,
he would have taken my side.
But he's all the way in Vancouver.
Wait a minute.
Suho hasn't answered the phone for a few days.
(Missing Child)
If Paran was at an orphanage,
why hasn't she surfaced all this time?
Mr. An.
Ms. Bae.
I'm always grateful.
You're still looking for Paran for me.
Please don't mention it.
Paran's like family to me.
So I was thinking...
Why don't we run a corporate campaign
to locate missing children?
Yes. Let's think about it.
Yes, Ms. Bae.
Use me as an excuse
and take a week off, okay?
Shouldn't I still tell Ms. Bae?
Why are you so dense?
I'm her mother-in-law, okay?
Just go. Go on.
I'm offering you a vacation
out of the kindness of my heart.
Go, go. Run along. Go.
Go on.
Have fun.
Take care.
Every project requires
a solid foundation.
I must get all the obstacles out of the way
to get myself settled in here.
'Pink skirt fluttering in the wind'
Goodness me.
Why does nature call at a time like this?
Hello?
Ms. Bae, I'm stepping out for a moment.
Please enjoy dinner.
Gukhui.
Mother.
Look at my dear daughter-in-law eat.
I made everything.
I remembered that you liked my fish stew.
What do you think? Isn't it good?
What are you trying to do?
How many times do I have to tell you?
You and I no longer share any ties,
so stop harassing me.
My goodness.
Are you still angry at me?
Get out.
Get out. Get out!
Good heavens.
Ow, my bottom. My bottom.
Ow, my back.
I can't get up.
Goodness me. Goodness me.
I'm dying here. Goodness me.
Ow, ow, ow.
They say a fall can kill an old person.
I'm going to die at my daughter-in-law's.
Ow. Ow, it hurts!
The recipient is unavailable.
Connecting to voicemail.
It's me.
Your mother is at my house.
Please come and get her.
What's with the food?
These are leftovers.
That's impossible.
Try it. Just try it then.
Do you think I'm lying?
Hey, mister.
What do you think you're doing?
You've been trying
to pick a fight with my mom. Is it
because it's just two women running this pub?
Watch it!
You can't yell at our customer.
Apologize to him.
Mom!
Apologize right now.
Mom...
Good grief. How dare she!
I'm sorry.
How dare you cry in my pub?
Why do you hate me so much, mom?
Am I that despicable?
Yes, you're despicable.
I try so hard to make you happy,
but you're always mean to me
and favor Ga-eul over me.
You said it was my fault
whenever dad's businesses failed.
You say I attract bad fortune
whenever anything bad happens.
Is it my fault dad died?
You want me to disappear, don't you?
Since you should mention it,
that's right. Get out of my sight.
I'll do as you wish then.
Don't use me an excuse.
You can be on your own
if that's what you want!
That good-for-nothing...
She's hot-tempered just like her father.
Darn it.
Why did she have to butt in and
make me a bad stepmom again?
Where have you been?
Geez.
Do you know how hard I'm trying
to get your mess sorted out?
So did you find someone to get rid of my debt?
Where's Bom?
I don't know.
I chewed her out,
and she took off.
Geez.
Be nice to Bom, Midal.
Yeongho's no longer here,
so she'll be our breadwinner.
You're so mean to her.
No kid her age is
as diligent and family-oriented.
Breadwinner? Give me a break.
She always talks big but
she's completely useless.
She's still your eldest daughter.
When Yeongho's business failed,
don't you remember?
She used her tuition money
to repay the interest on the loan,
which is why we still have the house.
Think about it.
If you can't repay Yeongho's debt,
who'll end up inheriting it?
If you want Yeongho's insurance payout,
you must take on the debt.
If you refuse
to repay the debt,
Bom and Ga-eul will inherit the debt.
That's right!
There's Bom.
I'll use her as a stopgap measure.
I spent a fortune
raising her anyway.
Hey. Where are you going?
What's with the bag?
Are you leaving home?
I'm going to stay away from mom for a while.
I'll call you later.
You're out of your mind.
You can't run away from home.
Running away isn't for everyone.
You have nowhere to go.
What's the matter with you?
You should be used to mom's nagging by now.
Stay healthy and
study hard for the college exam.
Bom, please don't do this.
Huh?
Where is she?
Mom!
I haven't gone deaf.
What did you say to Bom?
She's run away.
I told you to be nicer to her, didn't I?
What are you going to do now?
What? Bom ran away?
I begged her to stay, but she didn't budge.
But... But...
Where did she go?
I don't know.
Midal.
Midal. Midal!
Midal!
Bom! Bom!
Bom!
Ow.
Goodness me. My leg.
Ouch. Ow, it hurts.
Bom!
Where did she go?
Bom!
Bom...
Bom!
My dear girl...
Mom.
