(Episode 42) Actually, I...
I was at the National Police Agency today.
The DNA registration has to be done in person.
Oh, I see.
I see. I was mistaken.
So I was about to take you there myself.
I came to ask when you had time.
There's no need.
I went and registered my DNA today.
What?
What did you say?
I registered my DNA while I was there.
Oh, I see.
That was a good idea.
You came all this way to see me.
I'm sorry for putting you to all this troube.
No, no. You don't need to apologize.
Paran and Choi Jeonggi meet?
He'll know I stole their chance to meet Paran.
Then what about how I abandoned her in the past?
Who knows what will happen?
Taeho is upsetting me enough.
Why are you upsetting me, too?
You never get sick.
Go see a doctor.
I don't want to.
Leave me alone.
What's going on?
Your dad is sick and dying.
Dad! You're sick?
It's no big deal.
It's just a cold.
You don't look so good.
Go see a doctor.
You should, dad.
What if he passes away?
I'm fine.
Get out and do your own thing.
You're not fine.
This is how he's been acting.
I'm so upset.
Why can't he take care of himself?
You're really getting on my nerves.
Be quiet!
Oh, fine. I got it.
Get out, guys. He wants you to leave.
Get out.
Oh, I'm so upset.
I've never seen dad that sick.
He'll be fine.
He's been working too hard recently.
Seeing him so sick like that,
I'm starting to become a good son.
I feel like I should listen to him.
Now you're finally maturing?
It's about time you stopped upsetting them.
He's so stubborn.
All he needs is a doctor's injection and sleep.
Go to your room.
Is he really going to be fine?
You really won't smooth things over with Aran?
I told you already that we broke up.
You think getting married is a joke?
You've been dating for a long time,
so you must be tired of each other.
But listen to me, Taeho.
You're the son-in-law of Punggildang.
Don't disappoint me, okay?
This is the book of Ms. Bae's secret method.
You must keep your promise.
Mr. An.
Yes, Paran?
Why did you give mom's treasure to that man?
What?
I didn't give anything to anyone.
I saw it all. You gave away mom's treasure.
Right.
People can't live with committing a crime.
Bom, you're home.
Go wash up.
Put on this rice wine facial mask.
Yes, join us.
No.
I'm really sleepy.
Do you know how good this is?
It exfoliates and makes your skin shine.
This is the best for your skin.
I work all day at the pub and raise you guys,
but thanks to this, my skin looks young.
Right. Keep doing that and become gorgeous.
Hey! You should join us
and look pretty for your manager.
Mom, stop talking about him.
He has a girlfriend.
What? What are you talking about?
He has a girlfriend?
He's been acting like my son-in-law until now.
So stop talking about the manager, okay?
Come on. Who cares if he has a girlfriend?
People's minds change all the time.
(Idea Contest)
It would be nice to work at the headquarters.
It'd be more stable, and I'd get paid more.
But what would be a great idea?
Mom told me to give you this rice wine mask.
Rice wine mask?
Oh, geez!
Mother, please accept my bow.
Forget it. What bow?
I never bowed to you as your son-in-law.
Please forgive me for being so late.
Yes.
Please accept his bow,
and stop being angry at him, mother.
Mother.
I will be a year older in a few days.
I will work hard in 2016 as a woman's husband.
So pleaes don't kick me out,
and listen to what I have to say.
Oh, be quiet!
Please! Mother!
Until my body turns to dust,
I'll work hard to keep your daughter happy,
and I'll be good to you, mother.
Please.
How will you make my daughter happy?
I heard that you lost your $2,400.
Now you all have is your body.
Can't you judge me by how I will turn out
in a year or in 10 years?
Mother, please hear him out.
Please, mother.
Very well, mother!
I can't go back home like this.
I won't budge until
you accept me as your son-in-law.
Oh, my legs.
My legs...
Oh, goodness.
How can I give my daughter to a man
who doesn't have the patience to kneel?
Mother, a man's thighs are very important.
And they hurt so badly.
Right, we live together and die together.
Is it this house?
He has no money to rent another place.
I have to survive in this house then.
Excuse me.
Is anyone home?
No one's home?
There's nothing valuable enough to take.
They can live without the front gate.
Where is Baedal's room?
Is it here?
It's so small.
This room isn't so bad.
Maybe I should take this room.
What are you doing here?
Oh! Sis, you're here.
Sis?
What are these bags for?
I'm moving in here.
Sis.
What do you mean, you're going to live here?
Get out of here!
I'm not doing this just for my own good.
I married Baedal out of the goodness of my heart.
Who else would take him in and make him human?
What kind of nonsense is that?
Hey, look.
Don't be ridiculous about making him human.
If anyone makes him human, it's me, his big sister.
So get out!
Oh, my!
Please calm down, sis.
Oh!
Please calm down.
Oh!
Sis.
How can you treat me like this
when I came to live with your brother?
Please try to see how sincere I am.
Are you really being sincere?
Should I kneel down?
Why don't you be rational
and accept me right about now?
What are you doing?
You and I both love Baedal a lot.
Since we both love him,
let's try to work this out together.
Sis, I'll be good to Baedal.
Sis...
Hey.
Not you, my wife.
Baedal, I came to live here with you.
Yes, Jeongmi.
Let's live here together.
I just got kicked out of your house,
but you came here for me.
Jeongmi.
Yes.
Oh, let's live here together.
Jeongmi.
I put up new wallpaper for you.
Doesn't it feel like we're newlyweds now?
Unbelievable.
What's wrong, Jeongmi?
Are those tears of joy?
I know I wasn't welcome in this family,
but how can I start off my marriage
in this small room when I'm over 40?
I'm sorry, Jeongmi.
My love is a crime.
It's my fault.
How is it your fault?
My love is a crime.
It's my fault.
No.
Jeongmi, I'm sorry for loving you.
I'm sorry for loving you.
No, I'm sorry for loving you.
Are there employees who will join the idea contest?
Yes, many employees are interested in it.
I see.
You two know there will be a transfer of personnel?
Yes.
Mr. An belongs at headquarters,
since he's a man with initiative and drive.
It would be great for me to work with him there
based on my career I built here at the pub.
I know it's rude to say this,
but I'd like to stay at the pub.
Why?
Is there a reason for that?
I'd like to build more experience here.
I finally got the hang of things here.
It's a bit disappointing to leave now.
I know you were upset when you came here.
Thanks for saying that.
Keep up the good work.
Okay, Ms. Bae.
Good-bye.
Mr. An. Mr. An!
What are you talking about?
Ms. Bae just said we'd work at headquarters,
and you want to stay here?
Let's get to work.
What's holding you back?
Do you have some treasure hidden here?
Oh, geez.
Oh? Auntie!
I heard that you were sick.
How do you feel now?
It was nothing, really.
I was honored that everyone was nice to me.
Oh, I have something to show you.
This is a rice wine mask for the idea contest.
Give me your hand.
How did you come up with this?
My mom uses this for her facials sometimes.
That's where I got the idea.
Are you and your mom really close?
Of course.
She loves me very much.
That's good.
How does it feel?
Huh?
It smells and feels great.
Then take the whole bottle.
You have enough for me?
I made a lot to do some research.
You're already beautiful,
but get even prettier with this facial mask.
Thanks.
I'll become pretty thanks to you.
I can't get engaged to you.
Let's end things here.
Aran, let's go back to being friends.
Please let me stay by you at least.
You'll end up coming back to me.
No, I won't.
If it won't work, it won't work.
(Third Place in Rice Wine Competition)
Ms. Oh, where are you?
I'm about to go to my mom's pub.
Really?
I should go eat a bowl of soup there someday.
Okay, Ms. Oh.
Thanks.
You're tired, but you helped me write a proposal.
I told you. Your work is my work.
I made some this afternoon and found that
it's better to pour out the top part
and just use the sediment of the rice wine.
What?
It says you can add flour and honey for moisture,
and kelp powder for pore tightening.
Let me see your face.
Go ahead and test it on me.
Oh, hold on.
Your hair might get messy.
Hey, this is too girly.
So what, as long as it works?
I have no choice but to listen to you.
How is it? Can you feel a difference?
Hey, you only just put it on me.
True.
On this side, too.
Spread it well.
Don't smile.
I can't help it.
You'll get wrinkles.
Does it feel okay?
It's hardened already.
Then it's ready.
Go wash your face.
Okay.
Now I'll add adlay powder to remove freckles.
Oh? Mr. An?
Mr. An!
What brings you here at this hour?
What were you two doing in there?
Well...
Maru told me about recruitment for headquarters,
and I decided to try out for the contest.
Then you should've talked to me about it.
I'm able to help you, too.
I didn't want to burden you.
How is that burdening me?
I told you I'd do anything you need me to do.
The gold badge from the rice wine competition.
This is your treasure, right?
(Third Place for Rice Wine Competition)
How did you get this?
Bom.
You're like a treasure to me.
What are you talking about?
I want to protect you.
I like you, Ms. Oh.
I like you a lot.
Mr. An, you have a girlfriend.
We already broke up.
I never thought of you as more than a good boss.
Then start thinking of me as a man now.
I'll give you time.
Mr. An, I...
I won't rush you.
It's getting late. You should go back in.
I'll be going.
Bom, this facial mask is really good.
Where did she go?
Ow!
Who do you think you are?
Why are you doing this to me?
Is this what you were after?
You wanted to get Taeho to like you
by flirting with him and playing hard to get?
I never acted that way toward Mr. An.
Don't lie to me.
What did you do to him that he's acting like this?
I...
You know nothing about our relationship.
We've known each other for 20 years.
We went to school together,
we studied abroad together,
and we worked together.
We've never been apart.
We know everything about each other.
No couple is closer than we are.
You can't get in between us.
I have no intention of doing so.
We won't ever break up,
so don't think that you can have Taeho.
Why are you doing this to Bom?
What are you doing here?
I told you to watch who you hang out with.
I thought you were better than her,
but you're both the same.
Stop. I know you're having a hard time, but...
Be quiet.
Keep your girlfriend on a short leash.
And don't ever let me see either of you.
You two are both such lowlives.
I don't know what I did wrong.
Don't worry. You didn't do anything wrong.
But still...
It's Ms. Choi and Mr. An's problem.
It has nothing to do with you.
I don't want them to get in our way.
Bom, let's get back to work.
We need to get you into headquarters.
Don't be upset, and cheer up.
Yeah, let's cheer up.
Oops, I brought this home.
Oh, what's this?
Maru, I hope you wear this tie to work,
and achieve your dreams at Punggildang.
Does it feel good?
I have really strong hands.
I'll massage your back to help you relax.
It's okay.
Do you need pocket money?
No.
I actually applied to be a model at Punggildang,
so I wanted to ask for your help.
Is that so?
But I'm not one of the judges.
Maru.
Thanks for the tie.
You seemed to wear your dad's tie all the time.
Do you like it?
Yes, thank you.
Where did Maru go?
Leave it. I'll do it.
No, I'll do it.
Maru, I told you this before,
but I don't want you seeing Bom.
Dad, I don't think of this relationship lightly.
I understand how you feel,
but her family is our in-laws now.
We need to be careful.
There are lines we can't cross.
Oh, Ms. Oh!
Good morning.
I came to return this to you.
No.
It was yours to begin with.
Thanks for getting it back for me,
but I can't accept this from you.
You want me to return it to the jewelry store?
Just keep it, Ms. Oh.
If it bothers you, buy me dinner later.
Then I'll ask for it back when I save up money.
I'm sorry.
This is Manager An Taeho.
I'm glad you answered the phone.
This is Bom's mom.
Oh, mother.
Tell me what's going on.
Why is Taeho acting like this?
I don't know.
He's never been this angry with me.
Exactly. There's got to be a reason.
Well...
Tell me before I run out of patience.
He's changed since he started to work at the pub.
Oh, my head.
It's upsetting enough that he was
transferred to the pub,
but now something is going on there?
I guess there's a girl who's flirting with him.
She even borrowed money from another employee.
I guess she's trying to seduce Taeho, too.
You mean Taeho fell for a girl like that?
Oh, don't talk nonsense.
He's such an upstanding boy.
Mother.
Wait.
This won't do.
I should go check out who this girl is.
Mother.
Mother, please don't do this.
What are you going to do?
You'll just get Taeho involved in a scandal.
Other girls are after Taeho
because you're being too soft.
Mother, please calm down.
You don't need to come with me.
Go and do your work.
Mother...
Mother.
How does it taste?
I've been selling soup here for 20 years.
You are indeed a master.
You're so kind.
I like everything about you.
So, can I ask you something?
Sure, go ahead.
I heard that you have a girlfriend.
No, I'm not seeing anyone right now.
Really?
I knew it.
It would be a lie for such a handsome young man
like you to have been single all your life.
But there's no problem
if you currently have no girlfriend, right?
I like that we can be so frank with each other.
I really like you.
I want you to be my son-in-law.
Come eat here anytime you want.
You can eat here for free forever.
Thank you very much.
Mom, I'll turn this proposal in and come help you.
You're here, Ms. Oh.
Your mom asked me to come and eat,
so I stopped by.
I see.
He came to see you on your day off.
Why don't you eat with him?
No, mother.
I should get going now.
What, you're leaving already?
You came all this way.
Why don't you sit and talk with Bom?
I'll make you coffee.
I'll have coffee next time.
Thank you for the meal.
Ms. Oh, see you tomorrow.
- Okay. / - Wait...
Why are you standing here?
Go and see him off.
Go.
Mr. An.
Don't mind me.
I really came to have a bowl of soup.
Okay. Go home safely.
Ms. Oh.
I'll just stay quietly by your side
until you make up your mind.
I told you I don't have feelings for you.
This will end up being hard on you.
It doesn't matter.
Even if you don't accept me,
it's enough to know that you're happy.
So don't let it burden you.
Hey! What are you two doing here?
Taeho...
Who are you?
Mother, how did you...
What are you doing here?
Did you ask my son to come here?
Mother, what are you talking about?
Did you flirt with my son?
Mother!
How dare you?
How dare you try to seduce my son?
He's close to becoming Punggildang's son-in-law.
Mr. An and I aren't a couple like you think.
We're just a manager and an intern.
You're going to deny it here,
but continue to flirt with him secretly?
Ms. Oh, go home.
I may sound rude,
but let me just say one thing.
Mr. An and I are not a couple.
Ha! Look at her talking to an adult,
holding her head so high.
So this is how you seduced my son.
Mother!
Don't be rude to her.
How dare you?
What's this? What's going on here?
Bom, who is this woman?
Are you her mother?
What can I expect from a family living here?
Listen.
You should teach your daughter well.
How dare she go after a man with a fiance?
Who are you to treat my daughter this way?
How dare you talk about my daughter like that?
Forget it.
If I hear that this thing comes after my son again,
I won't let it go quietly.
Please stop it, mother!
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
I'll be back later.
An Taeho. Son.
I'm not done talking.
Look...
Hey!
What's going on here?
Forget it.
It has nothing to do with me.
Hey, where are you going after making this mess?
What's going on here?
How could this happen?
There are so many applicants
for this year's idea contest.
It'll be quite competitive.
Why isn't she here yet?
How are applications for the contest coming along?
Yes. These are applications from nationwide.
We're getting a great response.
I don't see Bom's application.
She didn't hand it in yet?
Excuse me...
Is Choi Jeonggi's DNA result out yet?
Are you Choi Jeonggi?
Yes, I'm Choi Jeonggi.
The test result isn't out yet.
We'll give you a call once we get it.
Okay, I see.
I'm dying here.
What's the point of waiting any longer?
It's all over now.
(Letter of Resignation)
I barely got here in time.
Where do I hand in the application?
Marketing Team on the fifth floor?
I'm sorry.
Look here.
What are you doing here?
Who knew we'd run into each other here?
Someone's having an affair?
Let's go talk outside.
Your son came onto my daughter.
He asked me to become his mother-in-law.
Aran's fiance is...
Is that true?
He's supposed to marry into this family?
Choi Jeonggi took his DNA test result?
Mr. Choi.
Mr. Choi!
He checked the DNA test result?
No.
Gukhui.
What's going on?
This...
Ms. Oh Bom!
Come here.
There's great news.
Great news?
You're so lucky.
Ow, that's hot.
Paran.
