What would you like?
A rooibos tea.
- One rooibos tea and one Americano. - Sure.
My wallet...
That's strange.
I'll pay.
I'm sorry. I know I came here to treat you.
I'm sorry, Ma'am. Your card has been maxed.
Really?
I'll do it by cash, then.
Bye.
What am I going to do? I can't check her signature anymore.
Ah Reum,
congratulations. The shrimp cutlet is doing so well.
- Pardon? - What are you talking about?
It wasn't doing that great just a few days ago.
Take a look at the graph.
It was on a blog, so it got popular by word of mouth.
Congratulations, Ah Reum.
It looks like it'll become an official menu.
I should go and try to taste it soon.
Thank you.
Bang Wool.
Why are you walking with your head in the clouds?
Have one of these.
This one is well cooked, just the way you like it.
Why do you look so beat?
Did something bad happen?
I worked so hard for months, but someone else is getting credit.
I'm so upset.
Did someone swindle you?
No, it's not like that.
I don't know what it is, but just forget about it.
I will.
(Chief Director's medication)
Sir, it's time for your medication.
The makeup room is nice, too.
I think the place looks quite luxurious.
- I like it better than yesterday's. - Right?
Yes, it's me.
What?
Another family meeting?
One moment.
Yes, Sung Jin.
You landed in Korea?
Chae Rin.
You look even more beautiful in Korea.
Let's break up.
What?
I found someone else.
We were apart just for a month.
How can you find someone else already?
I went on a blind date.
It's a family my father knows. I like him.
He's more perfect than you in every way.
Han Chae Rin...
We dated for a year. We even talked about marriage.
I would have married you if it wasn't for him.
However, I found someone I want to have.
Isn't it obvious we should break up if one of us had a change of heart?
I didn't know you were like this.
How can you do this to me overnight? We were almost engaged.
It's not like we got engaged officially.
Are you my fiance? What is wrong with you?
You're the one that's acting indecent.
Indecent?
Thank you for loving me for a year.
I hope you find someone nice.
Sang Cheol.
Mother.
Welcome back. Welcome.
You lost so much weight in just a day.
You must be so heartbroken.
Bang Wool, bring me the porridge for Sang Cheol.
Yes, Mother.
It's okay. I can't eat anything right now.
That's true.
It'd be strange if you could eat.
I understand.
Let us all sit down.
Is Ji Yeon not home yet?
There she is.
Sang Cheol, you're back.
As you already know,
Sang Cheol's mother passed away yesterday.
I know we always lived together like family already,
but starting today, Sang Cheol is my younger son.
I hope you get along with Dong Min as real brothers,
and you can think of us as your real parents.
Got it?
This is terrible.
I really cannot understand this kind of thinking.
Why do you always want to link everything?
Sang Cheol is Sang Cheol, and we're us.
What do you mean he's your younger son?
It's not like he'll become Byeol's dad.
Watch what you say in front of Sang Cheol.
Ji Yeon, just stay still.
Why did you tell me to come if I can't say anything?
Ji Yeon.
We tried to be understanding since you lived in the States,
but you should pick up the habit of considering others when you speak.
Okay.
Like Father just said, you should make yourself at home.
We'll be like a real family.
Father, Mother...
Thank you.
Don't bother saying something like that.
One person was taught so well by his parents,
while another...
didn't get any guidance.
I can't say that I understand exactly how you feel.
But since I've experienced it, I can understand more than others.
After my father passed away,
I felt like I was alone in this world.
I felt like an orphan. I didn't know what to do next.
I could only get through it until now...
thanks to Father and Mother. We became family. Byeol, too.
It was really difficult after I lost Dong Joon.
I hope you think of us as family and live more comfortably.
Actually,
you experienced more hardships than I have.
Thank you for trying to make me feel better.
You should go in and rest.
Did everything get sorted out yesterday?
Yes.
What happened?
My mother passed away.
What? Your mother passed away?
I'm speechless.
I know I'm not a caring person,
but have I been so harsh on you that you'd hide this from me?
Not at all. It's a misunderstanding.
Why did you make me a bad person? I couldn't go to the funeral.
Also, why did you come back so early?
You need to give service for three days at least.
I finished it yesterday.
I know it's not something I should say after what happened to you,
but you've upset me.
Today is the last day, right?
It's unfortunate, but what can we do?
You really tried your best.
You even tried to find her signature.
I'll be back after delivering this.
Breakfast is here.
Thank you.
I feel bad eating this all the time.
Don't be.
I only used ingredients that would go bad soon.
It's a well cooked one, just the way you like it.
Why are you sighing? It's so unlike you.
Can you recognize people that come to our restaurant...
since you're always here?
I can describe how they look and what clothes they wore.
How would I know that?
It's nothing. I was just trying to see if I can do anything.
I have to find a tall woman with a Grey jacket.
Show me a picture. Who knows?
We can check the black box.
Black box?
My car's black box would record everyone going into the restaurant.
Do you have the clips from four weeks ago?
If you know the date, tell me.
I have so many people scratching my car,
so I saved everything on my black box.
I know the date as well as the time.
What happened?
You told me it wasn't getting much attention.
I reported last time that the response was getting better.
It skyrocketed in the last few days.
I had a feeling this menu would work.
I went to try it myself, and it was delicious.
They had Mille-feuille pork cutlets, but never shrimp cutlets.
You're amazing to come up with something like this.
Thank you.
That woman was a bother, but it could've been worse.
Good job,
Ms. Yang.
This is confirmed as the new menu. Good work, everyone.
Aren't we going to have a celebratory dinner?
If everyone is available, let's have a team dinner.
You must have come to sign the memorandum.
At least you're good with keeping your time.
I came to show you something.
It's the evidence that Ms. Yang Ah Reum copied my recipe.
She's so persistent.
It's already over. What is it this time?
What is this evidence you're talking about?
It's a black box file.
I have footages of our restaurant from a car nearby.
You can see what date and time she came to our restaurant.
Go check it.
This is the receipt from her visit.
This is your signature, right?
It's really her, Sir.
Is she telling us the truth?
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry...
First of all,
I apologize for the misunderstanding.
I only trusted my staff, and I was disrespectful to you.
You were very disrespectful.
You treated me like a crook trying to get money.
Tell us your conditions.
I plan on repaying you for the psychological damage as well.
Get rid of all the test menus.
I want you to put up an apology for two weeks...
so that all your customers can see.
An apology?
An apology saying that you copied my menu.
Unfortunately, we can't do that.
- Why not? - The damage will be too big on us.
That means we admit to stealing a small restaurant's recipe.
But you did steal it.
A staff did, not the company.
Had I known it was copied, we wouldn't have tested it.
The company decided to make it a test menu.
Then you should be responsible. Why are you trying to get out of it?
I understand how frustrated you must feel,
but your request won't be passed by the higher-ups.
We could compensate by giving you more money...
I'll give you three days.
Get the approval from your higher-ups.
If you don't, I'll take other measures.
Gosh.
You must have looked down on me,
but I'm Eun Bang Wool.
How dare they touch my recipe?
My recipes are like my life.
Bang Wool, you're a genius.
Just hearing the story is as exciting as a movie.
You must have had a hard time all by yourself.
I'm only telling you since it got sorted out.
If it didn't, I'd be embarrassed.
I was about to let someone take all the credit for my work.
Starting next time, you should tell us.
Three heads are better than one. We could have better ideas.
Since you're so smart, you could've came up with something right away.
Come on. To be honest,
I'm smarter than him.
Your father-in-law went to college because he liked studying.
I didn't like to study, that's why I didn't graduate high...
Mother, did you not go to high school?
What?
No...
It was hard to make a living then. Girls hardly got to go to school.
Don't lie.
You stopped after middle school because you hate studying.
What's the point of hiding something from you at this point?
It's true. I only graduated from middle school.
However, I'm really smart.
Dong Joon takes after me.
People say that kids take after their mother's brains.
I want to be like you, Mom.
No. You have to have your dad's brains.
I hated studying and was bad at it. I only graduated high school.
No.
I'll only go to high school.
I'm going to be just like you.
Byeol, you love your mother too much.
That won't do.
I'll give you three days.
Get the approval from your higher-ups.
If you don't, I'll take other measures.
Are you feeling sick?
No, don't worry.
(Left Turn Only)
(20,000 dollars was deposited by Park Woo Hyuk.)
Sir, did you just wire money?
Yes.
I think you sent it to me by mistake.
I sent it to the right person.
I couldn't go to the funeral, so this is the best I can do.
This is too much, Sir.
Please take it.
How did you know my address?
Chae Rin, I can't end it like this.
You know how I'm like. I hate things like this.
Please remain as a good memory for me.
Chae Rin.
- Let go. - I won't.
Let's start over. I...
Stop being so pathetic.
If you come to see me or call me again, I'll report you as a stalker.
You know I'm a woman of action, right?
I want bread. I want to eat bread.
Just have rice. Here.
Bread doesn't give you enough energy.
Mom. Please, I want bread.
Byeol, come here.
How is it?
Yummy. It's delicious.
My goodness. Did he just answer you?
Did he say it in English?
Why are you getting excited over nothing?
Byeol is really good at speaking in English.
- Right, Byeol? - Of course.
I don't know about everything else,
but you're the best English teacher for Byeol.
To be honest, it's really expensive to get this kind of tutoring.
If you want to talk about money, you owe us more.
Okay, stop right there. It'll get too complicated.
My smart Byeol.
Hey.
You should have a baby of your own instead of kissing Byeol.
It's been over a year. Why is there no news?
We're using birth control.
What?
Why?
All right.
We're having breakfast.
- Talk about it later. - Hey.
You should have a kid soon. Dong Min is getting old.
Also, why are you using birth control?
We promised not to have a baby for at least 1 to 2 years.
We'll have one after Ji Yeon gets settled in.
She was busy with work and the wedding, too.
We'll have one soon. No, we'll have the baby now.
What?
How can we have a baby right now?
I'm moving jobs soon, so it's going to be crazy.
Hey.
I know you're from the States,
but how can you say that you won't have a baby in front of us?
Do we need your permission to have kids?
What?
No, Mom. We'll take care of it.
Gosh, I'm late. Help me with my suit.
What? We can't officially make an announcement.
The media will catch it, and it will damage our image.
I won't do that.
Then what is your solution?
I plan on recruiting her to our company.
If we make her one of our own, she won't make trouble.
We can also get the new menu.
I don't think it's a good idea.
What?
Recruiting someone on such terms means that we're using her.
It'll only upset her more when she finds out.
We have to do something now to settle this.
Even if we aim for the same thing, the method has to be different.
Feel it, can you touch me now
We're not open yet.
- Why are you here? - Ms. Eun Bang Wool.
- Please save us. - I've done you wrong.
What are you doing?
I did something I shouldn't have as a recipe developer.
I know I have no right to say anything,
but I never intended on copying it like this.
I had my bosses rush me, and I was tight on deadline.
This is something my life depends on.
I need an official apology.
Otherwise, people will think that I copied you guys.
Where is the team manager and Ms. Yang?
They went to beg.
They're paying a visit to Ms. Eun Bang Wool.
I don't think she'll forgive us easily.
- One ramyeon, please. - Okay.
- More side dishes, please. - Welcome.
- Bill, please. - You can sit over there.
Here is your food.
Enjoy.
- I need more side dishes. - Okay, one moment.
Bang Wool, I need Mille-feuille shrimp cutlet and three bulgogi.
Okay. Here is the ramyeon.
- Is the Chief Director in? - Hold on.
Sir, Ms. Han from strategy development is here to see you.
You can go ahead.
Come in.
Here is a proposal. Please take a look.
Which proposal is this?
We decided to invite the chef from last time...
to come to our cooking classes twice a month.
We can invite famous chefs every month,
and they can have a talk while introducing new menus.
That sounds good.
Why did you come instead of the team manager?
The team manager and Ms. Yang are in panic after their trip.
Bang Wool is persistent on having an official apology.
It looks like this will be difficult.
I think we have to pay her a big sum to get rid of her.
She's not the type to be moved by money.
Do you have another idea?
I'll review this later.
Have some coffee.
Was there an event in the neighborhood?
Why was it so busy?
Maybe people spread word about your good cooking.
They didn't look like people from our neighborhood.
If we're this busy every day, I'll be rich in no time.
Will I get a raise, then?
Of course.
Anyway, I'm scared you'll get sick from working so much.
It makes me happy...
to see other people enjoy the food I make.
It's like vitamins to me.
(Wan Academy)
What? It's here?
The professor said this was the best place...
No.
Let's not judge by its looks.
Which floor is it on?
What are you doing here?
What about you?
I came to take classes.
Your old professor recommended this place.
I heard there is a good instructor.
Where is the instructor?
He's not here.
Mr. Sun Woo Wan is the only instructor here.
What?
Does "Wan" from "Wan Academy"...
stand for Sun Woo Wan's "Wan"?
It'd be best if you leave, right?
All right, two back to back turns. Everybody, practice.
One.
Why not? I'm paying money to register.
Do I need a reason for why I don't want to teach you?
Yes. It's not like your discriminating...
I am discriminating you.
I don't want to teach someone as annoying as you.
What?
You're ridiculous.
I even gave you money last time for barbecue.
That offended me.
Why so?
I'm not homeless. Why would you give me money?
It's so that you could take better care of yourself.
I've always been helpful. I never harmed you.
I got treated at the dentist you work for.
You earned money thanks to me.
Gosh.
Don't you remember accusing me of being a fake?
Forget it.
Get out.
No. I'm going to learn.
Here, I've registered.
This is what I hate about you.
I don't know how rich you are,
but you look at musicals too lightly.
I don't think that way.
My colleagues and I put our lives on the line for musicals.
However, it's just a joke and a hobby for you.
This is why I won't teach you.
What do you know about my life?
Do you even know what it took me to get here?
Welcome.
Ms. Park, what happened?
What?
My goodness. I was on the subway looking like this?
What am I going to do?
No wonder people were staring at me.
How embarrassing.
What is it?
I see Ms. Han from the strategy development team.
Pull over for a minute.
Ms. Han.
Hello. Are you going home now? It's late.
You're leaving late, too.
There's a lot to learn since I'm still new.
Do you not have a car?
I'm having it serviced today.
You should go ahead. I'll grab a taxi.
All right. Take care.
Let's go.
Get on. It's late, I'll take you home.
Are you sure?
You'll have to make a detour because of me.
It's okay. Where is your place?
Mr. Kang, where are you going?
- To Gangnam... - My place is near Gangnam.
Okay.
What's gotten into you?
You drive as if you know where you are going.
I'm sorry, Sir. I made a mistake while thinking about something else.
- Go. Hurry up and go. - Pardon?
I said hurry up and go.
What is this?
Ms. Han.
(Love is Drop by Drop)
What are you doing?
You're the only woman I have.
Mom is just my mom.
I'm a man made for you.
Thank you!
I'll do my best. Thank you so much!
Why are you hugging me?
This is sexual harassment.
What is it? Is something wrong with the food?
We would like to recruit you to our strategy development team.
