(Sweet Home, Sweet Honey)
(Episode 112)
Yes, that's right. They'll get divorced soon.
It'll happen very soon.
Okay.
The family has to befit ours. Gil Soo is Poongildang's president.
Okay. I'll be counting on you.
Oh, Honey! Why are you home in the afternoon?
Well, I'm just going to get some rest.
Tell me. What's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell? You look pale.
Wake me up in a couple of hours.
I have to go back to work.
Sure, I will. Honey, hold on.
I wanted to talk to you about Tae Ho.
He won't actually live with Ah Ran forever, right?
Ask Tae Ho and sound him out.
- Tell him to divorce Ah Ran and... - Goodness.
Stop sticking your nose into their business.
It's their marriage, so they'll figure it out.
Gosh, look at him. He says what he has to say and goes into the room.
By the way, did something happen to him?
Oh, what brings you here at this hour?
I'm here to eat your rice with soup.
Really?
I haven't had a chance to eat yet, so I'm hungry, too.
Let's eat together.
Gosh, you must've been really hungry.
I can eat one more bowl of rice, right?
Oh, well... Sure.
Here you go.
You usually eat like a bird.
I guess your appetite has increased suddenly.
You must be happy to be back at Poongildang.
Of course. I'm very happy.
You have to be careful when you have sudden cravings.
We're older now, so it's easy to gain weight,
but it's very difficult to lose the extra pounds.
Mi Dal!
- I know. - Look who's here!
Honey.
Why are you here now?
What a coincidence. Who knew you would run into each other here?
I told Mr Choi to stay for your food before he leaves.
I see. Great.
Let's all eat my rice with soup together.
- It's on me. - Really?
I said I can go by myself.
I want to walk you to work on my way to my shift.
It's been so long since we walked together like this.
What a beautiful, warm day.
I wish Poongildang was farther away.
I married you because I fell for your sense of humour.
My mother was worried because you didn't come across as serious...
and because you like to joke around. She also thought you were too nice.
But perhaps it's those aspects of you...
that make me forget about the past...
and maintain our relationship.
I know that I've hurt you so much in the past.
I know that I can't...
apologise enough to you for what I've done.
Oh, look! Plum blossoms have bloomed. You love them!
For geonbaeju, I was thinking that we could try...
adding plum flowers in the trial batch we tasted the other day.
I wanted it to be a flower-infused wine with a subtle aroma.
Using plum blossoms is a good idea.
We can capture the floral aroma with the patented freeze-drying method...
and mass-produce the products, too.
They say that a word to the wise is sufficient. You're so wise.
I was just focused on developing geonbaeju,
but you're also thinking about turning the wine into products.
Bom, you'll be able to...
recreate and develop all traditional wines that I haven't been able to.
Right?
Mum, we have to do it together.
I'm clueless without your help.
This is from the brainstorm meeting we had after the briefing.
Everyone agrees that we should use the theme of geonbaeju in marketing.
Okay. Well, were there any good ideas that came up?
The idea Ms Song came up with was actually pretty good.
Gil Soo! Gil Soo!
- Gosh. - Here.
Lean on me and tilt your head back.
No, no. I'm okay. I'm totally fine.
Gil Soo, you've been working too hard.
Had I done a better job, you would not have been this stressed out.
It's okay, Honey. I'll do it.
No, Tae Ho.
Go and get me a wet towel.
Okay.
Gil Soo, you must not trust anyone.
No matter where you go, you have to check if there are security cameras.
Okay, I will.
I know. I should be careful.
Gosh, sorry. Your blouse is ruined because of me.
This isn't important at all.
I'm worried about you.
Gosh!
It's no fun if he gets weak already.
(Prescription)
This medicine will make you feel very tired.
I see.
Please give me the cheapest vitamin supplement you have.
Ah Ran.
Mum.
You are here to buy vitamins?
Why don't you take good ones?
It's not for myself.
Mum, are you really unwell?
No, I'm here to buy some vitamins just like you.
Let me buy them for you.
Please recommend me the best vitamin supplement.
Do you have something for menopausal women?
I'm afraid you might get upset about saying it. You're still like a girl.
Don't tease me.
I will come back for that later.
Ah Ran, shall we have some tea?
You can buy vitamins later.
Let's go.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
What do you think?
To be honest, this tastes similar to the previous one to me.
I feel the same way as I don't have a good sense of taste...
to give you an accurate review.
Bom, why don't you tell us since you have a good sense of taste?
It's easy to swallow, and refreshing in general.
However...
Yes, go on.
The three wines we just tried.
Despite the different fermentation period and ingredient ratio,
they smell and taste similar to each other.
That's right.
It's because of the yeast.
We have to use the national geonbaeju project as a chance...
to build our own yeast research laboratory.
Or else, you will feel the lack whenever you make new wines.
We have to pull this off.
A yeast research laboratory?
Mr An, you know...
how much I tried to convince...
the shareholders and the executives of the importance of it.
Whenever you did that, the executives got upset.
And I had a hard time to clear your mess.
You were so stubborn about it.
And you're still talking about the same dream.
Please consider it again.
We need our own yeast for the better future for Poongildang.
Forget it. Please stop talking about it.
How far has the geonbaeju project been progressed?
Mr Kang planned such a big project depending on your fame.
I am worried greatly.
And I know you went to a hospital.
I'm worried about your health, too.
I went to a hospital?
What are you talking about?
I saw you there.
- Wasn't it you? - Please...
Please reconsider the laboratory.
The laboratory will also contribute to the creation of geonbaeju.
If you achieve what I couldn't,
wouldn't it be a great accomplishment?
Mum, please stop it.
You're making Mr An uncomfortable.
Ah Ran...
Why is that laboratory so important to you?
Please leave now.
- But... - Please leave.
Ah Ran, please ask him again.
The yeast research laboratory will be Poongildang's meaningful asset.
Mr An will never do anything you ask him for.
So please don't beg him again!
Yeast and malt are the future of traditional wines.
It's essential for you and Bom to create good wines at Poongildang.
Ah Ran, if you ask him...
Mum, please stop it.
You lost Poongildang because of your stubbornness.
I just came by to see you.
Although I can see you every day, I still miss you.
Mr Kang, you are so nice to everyone.
That's not true. I'm only nice to those whom I like.
I'm a man of principles.
By the way, can I ask you something?
What is the yeast research laboratory?
Bom, about the disposal of the imported ginseng...
Mr Kang, hello.
Don't act like we know each other well.
I have my loving daughter-in-law right here.
My daughter-in-law, shall we go?
Wait. Mr Kang, are your legs still troubling you?
I know a good physical therapist.
I'll take you to him tomorrow.
No. My legs will get better over time.
I think you should do something about your mean personality.
Since my daughter-in-law is a warm-hearted person,
your hysterical voice can startle her.
Let's go.
That's annoying.
Gil Soo, you look so tired lately. So I bought some vitamins.
Thank you.
What about me?
I am sorry, Sun Young.
Gil Soo has been really tired.
So I thought of him when I passed by a pharmacy.
I've been exhausted, too because I have to see you every day.
By the way, why do I have to go...
to your wives' get-together with you?
It took her a lot of efforts to join that club.
Today is the first get-together with their husbands.
Please go with her and make her proud there.
My goodness.
We'll get going. Take a rest.
What? She doesn't have time to rest.
We need to change the curtains for spring.
Take down all the curtains in the house and wash them.
And get rid of dust in the house.
You can call in a housekeeper for that.
Tae Ho, don't.
I will do as you said.
Anything else?
What? More?
Oh, right. Make five side dishes.
Make fish stew so that Gil Soo can eat...
tomorrow morning.
That's enough. Let's go.
See you later.
- Let's go. - Have a good time.
I can't believe my mother.
I will do everything Mother told you to do.
You go and take a rest.
Thank you for saying that.
Come on.
Come here. I didn't just say that.
You can make side dishes and fish stew?
Of course.
You just take a rest while I cook.
Let's go. Okay.
I think it's too bland.
Ah Ran, could you come and taste the stew?
Is she asleep?
Ah Ran.
If you sleep now, you won't be able to fall asleep at night.
Wake up.
She must be really tired.
You are trying so hard to gain...
my parents' affection and trust.
I'm really grateful and sorry to you.
I will make it up to you.
I will make you the happiest person in the world.
- Tae Ho... - I'm here.
Go back to sleep.
What happened?
- Oh, my. What happened? - What's this smell?
My goodness.
She could have burned down our house.
Where did she go leaving the stew on the stove?
They must have fallen asleep. Just let them sleep.
Nothing happened. So it's okay.
No, we can't let this slide.
What on earth was she thinking?
Ah Ran, what were you thinking?
Mother.
I am sorry. I must have fallen asleep.
You did it on purpose, didn't you?
Just because I made you do some household chores,
you decided to burn down the whole house,
and make us live on the street. Isn't that right?
Mother, please stop it.
I fell asleep while making the stew.
What? So you made Tae Ho do all the work,
and slept in here?
I am sorry. I will make the stew now.
Gosh, this is unbelievable.
I can't believe you.
My goodness. You made Tae Ho do all the work...
so you can enjoy sleeping?
Is that what your mother taught you?
You can criticise me all you want.
But please do not speak ill of my mother.
I'm your mother-in-law. How dare you talk back to me like this!
Mother, please. You're being way too harsh on her!
She wakes up so early in the morning to make breakfast for all of us.
She also does house chores after work...
when she's already had a stressful day at work!
So I did some of the chores to help her. What's so wrong with it?
Tae Ho.
How could you not understand my feelings at all?
Are you going to keep taking your wife's side like this?
Please try to be nice to Ah Ran.
I'm begging you with all my heart, Mother.
Goodness. It seems that not a single day goes by without trouble.
Let them move out if you're going to quarrel with them like this!
What in the world are you talking about now?
You're behaving like this when you're living with us.
What will happen to you when you two move out?
You two, I'll be watching you.
- I'm home! - There you are.
Hi, Ma Ru. You're here.
Hey, where is Bom?
Bom is exhausted from work, so I sent her home.
You two just don't listen to me, do you?
I told you two to stop by every morning and evening.
Are you going to keep doing whatever you want?
Ms Lee, I know you don't hold grudges. Please forgive us.
He's right, Mi Dal.
If Bom's health gets ruined,
we'll be so sad and upset.
You two better come together tomorrow.
By the way, what's that?
Oh, this? They're ingredients for the herbal tonic, gyeongokgo.
Gyeongokgo?
I heard that it's excellent for middle-aged women.
You're going to make it yourself?
Gosh, I would just buy it if I were you.
I'd like to make it by hand thinking about the person whom it's for.
Who is it for?
Oh, I'm sure it will make that person so happy.
Ma Ru, you haven't eaten yet, right?
Eat before you go, okay?
It's okay. I should go home and make this.
I'll get going, then.
- Okay. Get home safely. - Okay, see you.
Get home safely.
Well, it looks like he's making gyeongokgo or whatever it is...
to give to you, Mi Dal.
You must be happy that a son like him just came into your life.
This is all because I've always thought of Ma Ru like my son...
and treated him with love.
I don't know if I can agree with that.
Don't you remember how you called him a lanky idiot and...
threatened him with a broom to make him stay away from Bom?
What? When did I do such a thing, you brat?
I don't remember it at all.
How did you come up with an idea of making gyeongokgo?
Your mother has been looking pale and tired these days.
I researched and found out that this is good for middle-aged women.
Making it from scratch will be a lot of work.
I'll do all the work, so you can just watch.
Gosh, didn't you say you're tired? What are you doing here?
Ma Ru wants to make gyeongokgo.
Making gyeongokgo from scratch is a lot of work.
They say what decides any medicine's efficacy is how well it's prepared.
Wow. This is harder than mixing rice for the wine making procedure.
You two. You're still working on this?
Why are you volunteering to make something so difficult?
Ms Bae, you were still awake?
We're almost done.
I know that Bom is exhausted from work.
Ma Ru frustrates me sometimes.
I'm worried that he might make Bom go through unnecessary hardship.
But he's responsible and kind unlike most young people these days.
He also has a pure heart.
He has this innate pureness about him.
Of course I know that Ma Ru is a great guy.
Bom is also very patient and too kind.
Ma Ru is exactly like her,
so I'm worried about them being thrown into this tough world.
You can continue to look after them...
and stay by their side to protect them.
Neither you nor I can't protect them forever.
No parents can stay with their children forever.
Also, they have to learn how to be smarter and more calculative.
You've developed this habit of...
snapping at me during our conversations.
It's like a blushing bride whining at her husband.
Stop it. I'm going to bed.
Your arm must be hurting now. Let me do it.
I told you that you can just watch. This is harder than it seems.
I just want to try it.
Let me try it, please?
You're nagging like a kid.
Here, try it.
Can you go to our room and lay down the blankets?
Go and lie down for 10 minutes.
I'll follow you in shortly.
Okay. I'll take over in 10 minutes.
Bom.
I washed your pillow cases...
Sorry. Go back to sleep.
Bom. You've been working on this all this time?
It's almost done now.
Is Ma Ru sleeping after making you do all the work?
Not at all. Ma Ru juiced the herbs, mixed them...
- and boiled them... - That's enough.
Both of you work. How does he not think that he should help you?
Doing all the house chores when you also have a job...
is extremely difficult!
Mum, Ma Ru did everything. I just watched him.
Don't try to protect him just because he's your husband.
If he made a mistake, you need to talk to him right then.
Otherwise, he'll keep making your life difficult.
Good morning, Ms Bae.
Ma Ru, you seem well-rested.
Yes, I had a restful sleep.
Good.
Have a seat, Ma Ru.
Sure. Is there something you'd like to talk about?
Mum, if this is about last night...
Thank you for thinking of me,
but because of your idea of making gyeongokgo,
Bom couldn't get a wink of sleep last night.
You've been looking fatigued these days,
so I thought you could use a rejuvenating tonic.
Handmade one will be better than a store-bought one.
He's right, Mum. It's the weekend, so I can rest at home all day today.
I'm not bringing this up just because of gyeongokgo.
How are you going to live in this tough world?
Until when are you going to be this naive and upright?
Why are you upset?
They wanted to make it from scratch for you.
Seeing you upset must be making Ma Ru and Bom sad.
I wasn't thoughtful enough. I'm sorry.
Mum, don't worry about us too much.
All of this will become fun memories we can reminisce later.
Look at you. Is there good news or something, Mi Dal?
I see you humming at this early hour.
Oh, was I humming?
I guess thinking about our amazing son made me hum.
How many mothers would have a son who makes gyeongokgo for them?
Totally.
Ma Ru takes after me.
He's so sweet and thoughtful, isn't he?
Gosh, I'm so lucky to have a son like him.
Shall we go over to their place to see if gyeongokgo is ready?
I wanted to give you a foot bath to help you get rid of your fatigue.
Nothing beats a warm foot bath to cure fatigue.
You don't need to do this.
Just trust me, Ms Bae.
All right, I'll start by massaging your feet, then.
Gosh, I told you that you don't need to do any of this.
Goodness.
I guess you're doing this...
because of what I said to you.
Winning my heart is not what is important.
I said what I said because I'm worried about Bom.
I appreciate the intention, but she works, too.
You made her stay up all night and work to make gyeongokgo.
You're too naive and tender-hearted. It frustrates me at times,
and it also worries me.
I promise I'll try to be better from now on.
But we made this gyeongokgo for you, so please don't forget to take it.
It's my first ever gift to you, my loving mother-in-law.
Goodness, I can't believe this.
She pushes away her son-in-law who tried to wash her feet.
And Ma Ru just smiles like a fool.
Oh, I... I didn't know you were there.
Mother and Father...
They look more like mother and son.
It's a good thing.
No, it isn't. I don't want to have a son like him.
I know you like Bom, but this is too much.
Is that herbal medicine for Gook Hee, not for your mother?
You don't know how excited Mi Dal was about it.
I wasn't excited. I didn't even expect it.
Ma Ru never thought of me as his mother.
He wouldn't buy me herbal medicine like that.
I heard that for a healthy person like you shouldn't eat much of it.
- Oh, my. Mi Dal, listen to him. - Ma Ru...
- Oh, my. - Oh, no.
Ma Ru.
I said that to help you, Mother.
Okay. I don't want it anyway.
I don't want it.
Gosh, what's wrong with you?
Are you insensitive or stupid? I can't believe this.
Mum, I am sorry.
It's not that Ma Ru didn't care about you.
Is that why he said that I am too healthy to take herbal medicine?
Mother, what I meant is...
I did wrong.
I will put you first from now on...
That's enough.
Ma Ru and Bom, stay here for a while.
- Pardon? - Pardon?
Even if they want to,
there's no spare room.
We do have a room.
You and Bae Dal can move to that house.
Mi Dal, we've already talked about that.
My goodness. On our way home, you told me...
Bom should live with her in-laws for a while,
and Ma Ru should be away from his in-laws for a while.
You two, do as Tae Joon said.
- But... - What?
What is it?
I agree with Tae Joon, as well.
You two listen to him no matter what. Okay?
I am not speaking ill of Mi Dal.
But if Bom lives with her,
Mi Dal will give her such a hard time.
You have to do something to stop this.
You know what Mi Dal is like, right?
Mi Dal used to be really mean to Bom before you found Bom.
It'd be okay if Ma Ru could keep Bom from troubles.
But you know Ma Ru. He's too soft-hearted...
to even say a word to Mi Dal.
Are Ma Ru's parents really taking Bom and Ma Ru...
to their house?
Yes, they are.
You should go there and stop them right now.
Just the thought of Bom having a hard time because of Mi Dal...
makes me want to cry.
Watching you cry makes me want to cry, too.
I shouldn't have taken Mi Dal's side earlier.
Gook Hee, I am sorry.
You know I am always on your side, don't you?
I am sorry to tell you this.
But I am wondering if you could let me live with them a little longer.
It's out of my hands now.
I will follow Tae Joon whatever he says.
I will teach them right while I live with them.
I will send them here every morning and night.
You know, it's...
I didn't mean they will move in with us...
Ms Bae.
We're not doing this because of the herbal medicine.
What you did today was obnoxious.
How could you take our precious son,
and make him wash your feet?
Even though I didn't give birth to him,
I'm embarrassed to see Tae Joon.
Ms Bae didn't ask me to do that.
I wanted to do it for her.
Ma Ru, I am sorry.
I wasn't mature enough as your mother-in-law.
Please forgive me.
It's all right, Ms Bae.
Mum, it's our fault. We should have been more thoughtful.
We should have considered both of you.
I am not asking you much.
Please give me just one year...
No, I mean... Just for three months...
Let me live with them, please.
I am begging you.
- Mum. - Ms Bae.
Gook Hee.
Ms Bae.
My goodness.
I didn't say anything to make her cry.
I won't keep them too long.
I will help you with household chores in return.
I will make you breakfast every morning.
Could you just give me a little time?
Oh, dear. I didn't know...
that she would be this upset.
Gosh. So she's taking them away just by crying?
- Those must be extraordinary tears. - Stop it.
I am sorry.
Gook Hee...
- Mum. - Ms Bae.
Gosh.
Honey.
Tae Ho! Soo Ho!
Ah Ran!
Where did everyone go?
What's that?
Why is my picture on a memorial table?
Why...
I am not dead.
I am not dead!
I am not dead.
I am not dead. I am not dead!
Should I take this to the laundry next time?
I should buy some herbal medicine for him.
He doesn't seem to have any energy these days.
What? What's this?
What kind of medicine is this?
Honey.
Please give me some water.
What are these pills? What is wrong?
It's obvious. Those are for migraine.
It's written on the package.
Is that true?
Oh, you are right.
Honey, I was so scared.
Honey...
What's with you?
Oh, my.
Are you sure...
that I have liver cancer?
Yes. Judging by your condition,
you must have had symptoms.
Why didn't you come earlier?
The pain came and went.
So I thought I was too tired.
Let's talk again with your family.
You have to come back as soon as you can.
Why...
Why me?
