(Episode 61)
Aran.
You!
Aran...
How dare you come here!
You never should have come.
If you've crawled back in here,
then you should keep to yourself.
I only want to see you
be miserable, pathetic, and wretched.
Breathe only when I say you can.
Aran did such a great job today.
I was worried about the bad blood
between them,
but hasn't Aran warmed up to Bom
now that she's here?
They're sisters after all.
Aran and Bom are sisters.
Shouldn't we take Aran to the hospital?
It must have been very painful,
but she probably put on a brave face
because we had guests.
I hope it doesn't scar.
Go upstairs and check on her.
Should I go and get her?
No. We'll go upstairs.
I'll leave then.
I don't think so.
You're not going anywhere.
Now that you're here,
you'll live in regret before my very eyes.
If this is how you feel,
why did you throw a party for me?
Why are you being like this?
Do you really not know?
Are you that dense?
I don't care about you.
But mom and dad are happy
that they found you.
They suffered long enough because of you.
They deserve my support.
So even if I give you a hard time,
put up with it for mom and dad's sake.
- Bom. / - What happened?
The floor must be slick
after the remodeling work.
Are you okay, Bom?
Are you hurt? Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Bom,
Aran just wants to make sure you're okay.
How's your hand, Aran?
Let's go to the hospital.
It's just a small cut.
Bom dressed it well,
so I'm fine.
Thanks.
You two must be tired from the party.
Rest up, okay?
Wait.
Is there something you want to say?
No.
Thank you for today.
Keep your mouth shut.
Let's forget her.
They say even your own child
isn't yours once she gets married,
so why regret losing
a child who wasn't mine to begin with?
Hello.
Why are you here when
Bom's not even around?
I stopped by, worried you might be
feeling lonely without Bom.
What are you talking about?
Do you miss getting soaked by me?
I heard they were throwing a party today.
You must have been shooed away.
Hey, sit.
I'm only asking because we do share a bond,
albeit due to unpleasant experiences.
How much longer do you plan on staying there?
I'm not sure.
You have a respectable job now.
You have the means to get your own place,
so why overstay your welcome?
Move out before
they make you.
A man must safeguard his pride.
Yes. I'll think about it.
Can I help you with anything?
Good grief. Like you know how to do anything.
Why isn't Baedal here yet?
We have to go to the market.
I'll go with you then.
I can do the heavy lifting.
Goodness me. You're so scrawny that
I doubt you can even lift a head of cabbage.
I can easily lift a large sack of rice.
Let's go.
Hello?
Is anyone in?
Ow, my legs.
You said you could lift a sack of rice,
yet you're struggling with that tiny load?
It's not heavy at all.
You're lying through your teeth.
Your forehead is drenched in sweat.
I left the store open, so I need to hurry back.
I'll get going.
Okay.
I'll be right there.
Baedal said he'd come early to tend the pub.
Where is he?
Good grief.
Burglar!
Keep it down. Keep it down.
Burglar!
Ma'am, a bowl of soup, please.
Who are you?
Help. Help.
Stop.
Stop right there.
Scumbag.
- You bastard. / - Don't move.
Hey, get him.
Get him.
Move.
Come here, you punk.
Come here.
Don't you dare move.
Here. Take it.
Stop right there!
Just let him go. Let him go.
You'll get hurt.
Oh, my goodness.
I don't believe this.
That almost gave me a heart attack.
What happened?
It's okay.
No one's hurt.
My heart's still pounding.
What was he trying to steal anyway?
Right here.
What is this?
What the...
Aren't these your underwear?
Oh, my goodness.
What a pervert.
I did hear there was a weirdo lurking about.
So it must've been him.
You must be rattled.
Why did he want something
he couldn't wear himself?
Geez.
Oh, geez. This is so embarrassing.
That punk...
From now on,
you should lock up when you're alone.
What if he comes back when
I open the pub tomorrow morning?
Hey, remember what I told you earlier?
Why don't you move out
and come stay in the storage room?
I can give you a discount for
keeping an eye on the pub at night.
People like him are cowardly.
After what happened today,
he probably won't return.
And I'll come by often after work.
How about I take the room?
You?
Yes.
How much will you charge me?
Oh...
But I can't rent it to you when
I don't even know your name.
I don't need it long-term.
Look.
I just have something I need to wrap up,
so let me just stay for a couple of months.
But it's winter,
so you'll be using the heater
and a lot of hot water.
I won't charge a lot.
I'll take $500 a month.
But you charged us $300.
Zip it.
$500 is a steal in this neighborhood.
Fine. I'll take it then.
Goodness me. Goodness me.
My muscles must be in shock
from overexertion at my ripe old age.
Would you like me to give you a massage later?
No.
I can't impose on you like that.
I just wanted to know where a public bath was.
It was very nice of you to accompany me.
Don't mention it.
I was feeling a bit under the weather,
so I wanted a nice hot soak myself.
Thank you for
having grown into a fine young lad.
Pardon?
It's nothing.
I used to stay with Ms. Lee, so I know that
although she appears to have a sharp tongue,
she's a caring soul deep down.
Right. She seems like it.
Based on what you two were discussing,
it appears you know her and her family well.
You should visit every now and again.
And perhaps fate brought us together,
so you should also have a drink with me.
Okay.
Okay?
Easy does it.
Hey.
Who told you to do this?
I'm just bored.
Midal, are you driving a seven-year-old child
like a slave?
I didn't make her do it.
She said she wanted to.
You should've stopped her
even if she did.
What if she dropped the plate
on her foot and cut herself?
Why are making such a fuss over nothing?
Bom set the table when she was three.
This is part of a good upbringing.
What happened?
Now that Bom's not here,
are you set on giving Chisaem a hard time?
You're overstepping your bounds.
How can you say that?
When did I give Chisaem a hard time?
And when did I give Bom such a hard time?
I'm upset enough as it is that
I had to give her up after raising her so well.
Whatever.
Don't ever make Chisaem
bring the food out again.
Honey, what's gotten into you?
Why are you upsetting Midal over nothing?
How is it nothing?
This is about my daughter.
Wow. I'm dumbfounded.
What did I do to deserve this?
There's no use in feeding someone else's kid.
Honey, can we talk?
Honey,
this is the time to butter up my sister.
With Bom gone,
this is our chance to switch rooms with Gaeul.
Are we to turn Chisaem
into a kitchen maid for a better room?
Why are you being so dramatic?
Bringing food out doesn't make her a maid.
This wasn't the first time.
Yesterday, Midal made Chisaem
wipe the table and even peel garlic.
What's the big deal?
Chisaem can help out a little.
Is this because Chisaem isn't your daughter?
Will you be like this when Peanut is born?
Are you favoring Peanut
over Chisaem because Chisaem isn't yours?
How can you accuse me of
favoring Peanut, who isn't even born?
You're going to upset me now.
Darn it.
'What's wrong with my age?'
'What does age have to do with love?'
'Of one mind'
'Of one feeling'
When Bom was her age,
she used to say I worked too hard
and rubbed my legs.
'Tears are falling'
Midal.
Mom.
Who told you sing such a song?
All my friends sing it.
You're being so unfair.
Now you're making
this young thing sing for you?
Geez, Jeongmi,
what's with you today?
She's the one who wanted to
bring food out and sing for me.
I don't know why you're so mad,
but move out if you're going to pick on me.
Even my daughter hates me and left,
so what do I care if you guys left as well?
Midal, honey,
what's the matter with you two?
Hey, take your wife and beat it.
Move into your in-laws'
or get your own place.
Geez, Midal.
Why would I ever leave you?
I must protect and
care for you, especially
when you're down like this.
There's no need.
She says she doesn't need you.
She wants us to move out.
Enough, you two. Enough.
Oh, my goodness.
Geez, grandma.
Socks cost nothing.
Why are patching it up?
You little brat.
Young people these days are so wasteful.
Once I patch this up,
I can get another year out of it.
You're such a cheapskate.
I'm not a cheapskate. I'm frugal.
Your lot is living this well
because old folks like me
saved every penny and
conserved every drop of water
when we were young.
You're right, mom.
Young people today say they have it tough,
but it's nothing compared to what
your generation had to overcome.
Okay, fine.
Dad,
do you know how bad it's been for me lately?
What are you talking about?
I lost my room to Bom.
And stepmom says I'm a daughter to her,
but she couldn't care less about me.
That's not true.
In any case,
I want to move out with Maru.
Get us an apartment.
Good grief. What did I tell you?
You just keep your mouth shut and stay put.
Otherwise, you might get kicked out.
Since you're old enough,
I'll be honest with you.
I've made a lot of mistakes.
My carelessness caused
your mother a lot of grief
and hurt Gukhui as well.
That's why you and your sisters
have come to hold a grudge against me.
So I want to take care of all of you.
I want you by my side so I can be a good dad
for a chance to be understood and forgiven.
This isn't because I hate you, dad.
I feel like a nobody in this house.
I know you're upset, Jia.
I'm sorry.
Dad.
Kids don't know what their fathers go through.
Bom.
Mr. An.
We need to talk.
Please let me speak first.
Ms. Choi is my sister,
and Ms. Bae is my family now.
Your interest in me makes me uncomfortable.
But you did have feelings for me too.
Family is my priority right now.
I never want to hurt my family.
It's been ages since I got my back scrubbed.
I feel so much better.
You must be tired from the party earlier.
Say, mom,
should I move back in?
Then I can scrub your back
every day at the public bath.
Did you and Baedal have another spat?
What spat?
I feel like I'm walking on eggshells
living at Midal's with Chisaem.
I'm fine, mom.
I do my best to get in Aunt Midal's good books.
See?
Did you hear what this tiny thing said?
Do you see why I'm so upset?
So why did you have to get married
and make me sad as well?
You don't say.
I must have been out of it.
Should I just pack up and come here?
Stop your nonsense
and go home. Go, go.
You're so harsh, mom.
Why are you so cruel to your only daughter?
Good grief.
Let's go.
Live long and healthy, grandma.
I will.
Goodness me. That poor thing.
It's so cold.
Huh?
Look who's here.
My goodness.
Aren't you the jerk who broke Aran's heart?
Ma'am.
How dare you show up here!
I offer my heartfelt apology for what happened.
It makes me shudder just to think about
how you came between my granddaughters.
It won't do you any good to get on your knees.
Go away.
I'm so sorry.
Why are you doing this?
Wait. You must not have come to your senses.
Are you still thinking of getting together with
one of my granddaughters?
I'm ashamed to say that I am.
My goodness.
Good heavens.
This is just unheard of.
I really love Bom.
Wow. I'm dumbfounded.
Go away.
I'll pretend I didn't hear that,
so scram.
Ma'am.
What are you doing?
Oh...
I didn't see you all day.
We had a lot of guests.
I went to see your mother.
Why didn't mom come?
She didn't answer her phone either.
She's very upset at me, isn't she?
No, of course not.
She was very busy at the pub.
Right.
Uncle Baedal and Aunt Jeongmi were here too,
so she must have been busy
tending the pub alone all day.
I feel bad.
Maybe I should go help her
after work every day.
Bom,
you haven't settled in here yet.
You're not comfortable around your parents,
and I know Ms. Choi hasn't fully accepted you
as her sister.
I'll go and check on Ms. Lee often.
Don't worry and just get your bearings here.
Oh, my.
What am I going to do?
What if this leads to disaster?
Why did they have to take in
someone else's son?
(An Taeho)
My feelings for you won't change.
But I told you I couldn't.
Hey, Bom.
Oh, my goodness.
What brings you here?
How are you?
I heard about your homecoming party today.
I thought long and hard about whether
my husband and I should come...
It was just for family and relatives.
Oh, really?
Just family and relatives?
Oh, it won't be long before we become family.
Bom, I can't let you go.
If I had known you were so sweet,
I would've let Taeho marry you a long time ago.
Ms. Yun.
Ms. Bae.
What were you saying to Bom?
Oh, um...
I told you, didn't I?
My daughters will have nothing
to do with Taeho anymore.
But Ms. Bae,
why are you so quick to draw the line?
Young people date, break up,
and then find someone new.
Taeho did have a little something with Aran,
but they've decided to remain friends.
And if he's fallen in love with Bom,
shouldn't we let the two...
Please, stop.
Please refrain from such absurd statements
so we won't have to cut ties with your family.
Let's go in.
Ms. Bae.
Bom. Bom.
It's not like he was married to Aran.
They merely broke up,
so why is she being so touchy?
Good grief.
Say what you will.
I'm not giving up.
Did you sleep well?
Yes.
You look just like you did when you were little.
What is it?
I'm sorry about yesterday.
I was very stressed
with all our relatives here,
so I must've been agitated.
Why are you so intimidated?
Do you think I'd do something?
Give me your arm.
It's our matching bracelet.
(Aran)
I have the same one.
(Oh Bom) If we wear these,
we won't ever lose each other again.
Wow, my son.
Where are you going
looking more dapper than
an English gentleman?
Bom will be making her first official appearance
with her mother,
so I'm going to take some pictures.
That's great.
You should get out more.
I don't get why you're always in an apron
cooped up at home.
What's wrong with wearing an apron?
I wear it to feed our kids
and take good care of them.
Your problem is that you're always
so passive.
You're the head of this household.
With Bom's return, Gukhui even
gave you the seat at the head of the table.
You should tear off the apron
and say you've had enough.
You should ask Gukhui for
a position at the company or
a fancy studio downtown.
Have some sense of shame, mom.
Do you know how sorry I am to Gukhui?
I'm not a worthy father to Bom or Aran either.
I'm more than grateful Gukhui took me back.
How could I ever ask her for a job?
I should get going.
Good grief.
I was hoping you could accompany me
to the Sinseonju launch event.
Me?
But Aran organized the event.
It was Aran who suggested that
I introduce you at an official event.
She'd like it if you accompanied me.
Yes. Ms. Bae wants to officially
introduce you as her youngest daughter,
so go with her.
I've never taken part in an official event.
Don't be scared.
I'll be by your side.
(Aran)
What a pretty bracelet.
That must be the matching sister bracelet.
Yes.
My name is engraved on Aran's,
and Aran's name is engraved on mine.
Right.
I'm so thankful you two have worked through
your differences and made up.
Okay. I'll prep Bom.
What?
Bom is accompanying the president?
Who
does she think she is?
Hey,
I heard you'll accompany the president.
You spent weeks organizing the event.
I'm not sure if I should do this.
Don't worry. This is good.
It's a good opportunity to let everyone know
you're mom's long-lost daughter.
And we have our Sinseonju to launch too.
I'll give you a press brief I put together.
Good luck.
Keep in mind you're a Punggildang daughter.
Be confident,
okay?
Okay. I'll do my best.
(Sinseonju)
Bom, so you're slowly encroaching on my job?
I spent so much time and energy on this,
and yet you'll steal it from me in one swoop?
(Punggildang successfully restores Sinseonju)
Hello.
I finally get to introduce my daughter to you.
This is Bom.
I ask for your kind consideration.
I heard.
Congratulations on finding your family.
I look forward to working with you.
I heard you'd been working at Punggildang
even before Ms. Bae found you.
That's right.
I didn't know my daughter was so close by.
I'm so ashamed as a mother.
But you did reunite as if by fate.
I ask for your kind consideration of Bom.
Shouldn't I be asking Bom to do that for me?
Oh, no. You flatter me, sir.
Let's go in.
Mom has the entire family here.
You're here.
Yes.
I'm here to take pictures of my daughter's
first official appearance.
I hope I don't slip up in any way.
You'll do well.
I'll be rooting for you.
You're here too, dad.
Since your return,
our family's had a lot to celebrate.
Do you have the Sinseonju sample?
I was on my way to get it.
Would you like me to come with you?
It's okay.
How did this happen?
What did you do?
Did you do this?
No. It wasn't me.
Why can't you even
take good care of our product?
It was broken when I came in.
Stop lying your way out.
The launch event's about to start.
We're about to introduce
our Sinseonju to the press.
Do you know how important this event is for us?
Is there another Sinseonju sample?
You're in charge of managing the product.
How should I know?
This is maddening.
We have no time.
Why did it have to happen to the sample?
Geez.
The plant says they sent
all the samples to the warehouse.
Okay.
The warehouse says they sent
all the samples to our wine bars.
I'll call all our wine bars to
see if there's any left.
There's none left.
I was told the wine bars are
out of stock after yesterday's tasting.
We haven't found another sample?
What are we going to do?
I'll go to the wine restoration lab.
Why would they have any?
The plant shipped the wine to the warehouse.
They might have some left from the research.
Bom, I'll go with you then.
Ms. Choi, I'll go with her.
My goodness.
This is faster than a car at this time of day.
I'm sorry for the trouble.
Don't be.
Hold on tight.
Fine. Go ahead.
The press will leave,
and the board will be disappointed.
Even if you get a sample,
it'll only make you look bad.
Did you find any there?
No.
That's where we keep wines to dispose of.
It wouldn't be there.
I remember seeing
old samples of restored wines.
- Gyeongu, have they called? / - This is bad.
Mr. Park, it won't take much longer.
Why didn't you take better care of the sample?
Don't you know the press
is unforgiving of tardiness?
I'm sorry.
It's not Ms. Choi's fault.
Event product management is the role
of the Development team's lower-level staff.
Fine. Even if it was Bom's responsibility,
you're the one who organized this event.
You should've known better.
Aran didn't do it on purpose.
The sample bottle was already broken.
Why, at Bom's first official appearance?
I should've been more meticulous.
I'm sorry.
I'll go look again.
You saved the day. Thanks.
You can thank me later. Let's go.
You may have moved into the house,
but there's no place for you at Punggildang.
An accident?
What happened?
What happened to Bom?
I only did it because I was upset.
This isn't what I wanted.
Bom. Bom.
Gukhui!
Bom!
