(Sweet Home, Sweet Honey)
(Episode 121)
Gosh, Mum...
The weather is beautiful these days.
Shall I go hiking with Tae Joon on the weekend?
Hey, why are you here at this hour?
Shouldn't you be at work?
Mum.
Bom, why...
Tell me. Did something happen?
Why? Did that jerk, Mr An, kick you out or something?
Or, did you have a fight with Ma Ru?
No.
Gosh, then it must be the stress of living with your parents.
Your mother is very fussy. Living with her must be difficult.
Don't cry over things like that.
Gosh, don't be silly.
What's wrong with your mother?
Can't she just make you feel at home?
Then we can make Bae Dal live there so that you can stay with me.
Mum, what should I do?
Goodness, Ms Bae.
You're still doing that?
You should get going.
I can have one of my staff members do it when they get here.
I'm almost done.
Gosh, you're so stubborn.
Mum.
What are you doing now?
The maehwaju is aged very well.
Can you taste it for me?
My sense of taste is still...
Stop it, please!
Why is that maehwaju so important to you?
- Bom... - Stop making wines...
and get some rest, please.
You need to take care of your health!
I need to complete geonbaeju soon,
and I still have things to show you and teach you.
Forget it. Let's go home.
I don't care about any of this, so let's go home now.
What's the matter?
Gosh, it looks like she needs a new pair of shoes.
Don't worry about your wine at the brewery.
I'll check on it on my way home from work every day.
You can't do all that by yourself.
I can just ask you if I have any questions.
You two are home so early today.
I meant to pick you up at your office.
Bom nagged me to come home, and I was tired.
Exactly what is troubling you right now?
It's not like I'm sick. I'm just a little bit tired.
Gook Hee, why don't we go eat your favourite bulgogi with green onion?
We can mix the soup with cooked rice...
Jung Ki, let's eat that some other time.
Since you're home early, let's eat out today.
It's on me.
She said she is tired.
Let's just let her take a rest.
Your mum said she was dizzy last night. So I thought...
she might get some energy...
I have to go back to work.
Please take care of Mum.
What's wrong with Bom?
She's so cranky.
Bom.
What are you thinking about?
Oh... I...
Where did you go? You didn't answer my call. I was...
You're worried.
What is it?
Ma Ru.
Never mind.
It can't be true.
I have to check it again.
What can't be true?
Mr An.
I have something to tell you.
I'm busy. Let's talk later.
I said I have something to tell you.
- Mr An. - What?
You want to complain that I went through your room?
Sue me if you want.
Sue Ah Ran, too.
You knew it, didn't you?
What? What did I know about?
You knew it.
You knew my mum has...
You tried to tell me that, didn't you?
How could you hide it from me when you knew it?
Did you finally find that out?
You've been acting like the best daughter in the world.
But you didn't know that your mum has cancer until now.
You could have told me about Mum.
You should have taken care of her. Don't take it out on me.
That's true. I'm a terrible daughter who didn't take care of my mum.
I didn't even know that she's terminally ill.
I was selfish. I only cared about myself.
But you could have told me about her.
Even though my mum's tragedy makes you happy,
you should have told me as it's a matter of life and death.
Stop blaming me.
Karma will get the better of you.
I won't let my mum leave like this.
I won't let anything go your way.
Bom.
Ah Ran.
Don't worry. Mr An couldn't find anything in your room.
And I have the proof.
Ah Ran, Mum is...
Aren't you going to the meeting?
I'm going.
Let's talk later.
Ah Ran...
You two are so funny.
Since when were you so close with each other?
Now you look like you love each other so much.
Gosh.
Ah Ran, what should we do to help Mum?
I can't believe this.
You know how they say some people are born unlucky. That's me.
When I thought I hit rock bottom, life once again proved me wrong.
Bae Dal, stop crying.
Gosh. Stop it already. Lee Bae Dal!
If you can't deal with this, don't even start a business.
Calm down, Mi Dal.
Bae Dal, sometimes in life, you fall down.
Sometimes, it rains.
You have to stay strong enough to overcome difficulties...
to become successful.
Mr Kang, you can stay strong only when there's hope.
What do we have left? Everything we had has been stolen.
And we have to repay the money we owe you.
Bae Dal, let's not give up.
Being cooped up in your room won't give you a solution.
We should brainstorm...
to find a way to start your business.
There's no way. I went to the police station.
They said that there are thieves who burgle only stores waiting for open.
The thieves are so cautious...
that the police are having trouble catching them.
Then, will you just keep crying...
until they catch the thieves and you get your things back?
You still have your shop. You should start your business.
Gosh.
Here you are.
Use that money to start your business.
Mum, I'm sorry for receiving your money.
Please accept this, too, even though it's not much.
Your gimbap tastes good. I'm sure you'll be successful.
When we get paid this month, we'll invest more money in your business.
Cheer up.
Uncle and Aunt, I don't have any money right now,
but I'll work at your shop without being paid.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
Gosh. You're so clumsy.
Don't forget to lock the door,
and make it work this time.
You don't have to repay my investment money for three months,
and I'll pay your shop rental fees for the three months.
Mi Dal and Mr Kang, thank you very much.
We'll never forget your kindness.
Jung Mi.
This is all we have.
We are sorry.
Gook Hee, please don't say that.
Everyone.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you, Mr Kang.
Thank you, Ms Kim.
Thank you!
I am the only brother Jung Mi has.
But when everyone stepped up to help her,
I couldn't do anything.
I want to help Jung Mi to overcome the difficulty, too.
But you know our situation.
You are the vice-president of Poongildang now.
- You can... - There's nothing I can do...
even if you think that I'm cold-hearted.
I did everything I could.
Whenever your mother asked me for money to buy houses and land,
I gave her money without complaining.
We paid your sister's college tuition even in financial hardship.
And your photo studio was always a topic.
Why would you talk about the past? You don't have to embarrass me.
You can't stay unreasonable like that forever.
Unreasonable?
I didn't know you were a person who remembers and grumbles...
about everything that happened in the past.
You are so rigid.
It's not like that.
I'm just saying we should live within our means.
Is there...
any problem between you two?
Are you arguing?
How can I argue with her? She was scolding me.
This is my life.
That's because you always make trouble.
- Bom. - Bom.
What do you mean?
See? You even made Bom...
think I always make trouble.
Please stop it.
What's wrong with you, Dad?
Can't you give us a break?
We bought everything from your store.
I will pay you next month.
You don't even take credit cards. You're harsh.
Hello?
Gosh. You jerk.
Why? Is there any problem?
You'll open your shop tomorrow.
He's been calling everywhere,
but he can't get a fridge on credit.
The weather is getting warmer every day.
All our ingredients might go bad before we sell out.
I wish I could help you.
But Bom manages my money,
and gives me allowances.
Ma Ru, you shouldn't let her control you already.
You saw what happened to me, right?
You might become like me.
Jung Mi, let me talk to you for a second.
What is it?
Here you are.
What are these, Jung Ki?
Take out a cash advance on these credit cards.
It should be enough to buy a used fridge.
I can't take these when I know your financial status.
Take them.
You shouldn't tell Gook Hee about this.
She doesn't even know that I have credit cards.
I feel so bad that I caused you so much trouble.
Jung Ki, I'll be sure to pay you back first with the money I earn.
- Thanks. - Don't mention it.
(Poongildang)
Something must be going on in Mr An's family.
Ms Song, when are you leaving for the States anyway?
I told you. I'm no longer transferring to the States.
Why is that?
Ma Ru isn't going, so I obviously...
Let's drop that topic.
Well, does any of you know what's happening with Mr An?
Tae Ho.
Drink slowly.
- For the next little while... - What is...
staying away from me going to change?
You think leaving home will change something?
I left because I just couldn't bear to watch you and my father.
Who knows?
My warnings might eventually make Gil Soo reflect on his wrongdoings.
Or, he could find out and kick me out before that happens.
That's why I'm telling you to stop monitoring him.
We might never get another chance to help him reflect on what he did.
I know that you can influence him.
You're his son after all.
Come home. Come back home,
persuade Gil Soo and protect me.
Please do me this favour.
We'll begin the ribbon cutting ceremony for...
the first day of construction for the Bae Gook Hee Research Lab.
Dear VIP guests, please cut the ribbon...
at the count of three.
One,
two...
Hold on a moment! Please wait for me!
Goodness, what's she doing?
Gosh, I'm sorry.
I'm running!
I'm sorry!
Gosh, it could have been a big mess.
You almost had to start this important ceremony without me.
All right. Scissors, please.
Well... You shouldn't be here, Honey.
What are you talking about?
I must be here as the wife of the company's president.
Look. Ms Bae should be standing there as it's for her research lab.
You can stand at the very end.
What did you just say?
Honey, go over there.
I apologise. We'll begin now.
- Stand over there, okay? - Why?
- Hurry up. - I need to be around here at least.
I apologise again. We'll really start now.
We'll cut the ribbon now.
Okay, 1, 2, 3.
- Thank you. - My pleasure.
So the construction will begin now.
Congratulations, Ms Bae.
Thank you.
All right, 1, 2, 3.
- Here we go! - There.
(Celebrating the First Day of Construction)
Wow, you're good at this.
Thank you.
Mum, are you okay?
Yes.
Over there, too.
Congratulations.
Congratulations, Ms Bae.
Bom and I will work hard to deliver what you promised to the brewers.
Yes, please do your best.
Thanks.
Everyone, have a glass of geonbaeju.
It sounds great!
Then let's make a toast to the successful future...
of the Bae Gook Hee Research Lab.
- Cheers to its success! - Cheers!
Excuse me. I'd like to say a few words.
Thank you. I'll be quick.
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. Bae Dal's Gimbap is here.
We can deliver if your order is over 12 dollars. Oh, you'd like some?
- Hello! Our gimbap is so delicious. - Is it really good?
I'm impressed by what you have done.
Remember Bae Dal's Gimbap. Hello!
- Hello, Sir. - Hello!
- What is it? - They're selling gimbap.
My gosh! I'm sorry. I don't know what just happened!
Why are you taking these?
Give it to me.
By the way, you're the vice-president.
Did you have to stand in the middle and act all high and mighty?
Am I wrong?
You're no longer the president, so you should just lay low.
Do you really have to hover around my husband like this...
and bother him?
Stop it.
Who are you to tell me to stop?
- You! - Gosh.
Leave her alone. Don't you dare try to pick fights with her.
If you want to fight, fight with me instead.
You stay out of this, okay?
Why? Are you scared of me?
Stop it, Ms Lee.
Gosh, let me talk to her.
I was bored out of my mind trying to look all elegant earlier.
I need some action. Come at me!
Gosh, what's wrong with this woman?
- My goodness! - Why?
Are you scared of me? Is that why?
Where do you think you're going?
If you bother Ms Bae once again,
I'm going to hurt you badly. Got it?
I can easily knock you down in one punch!
Gosh, I'm speechless.
You! Get lost!
- Are you okay? - Yes.
Gosh, that woman is ridiculous.
All right. Let me try the geonbaeju you've worked so hard on.
This tastes amazing. It really lives up to your name.
I'm truly impressed.
Thank you for your kind words.
I have a favour to ask you.
This. You gave it to me...
as a gift.
I remember.
It's that wine glass I gave you.
You brewed yeonhwaju that is much more fragrant than mine,
so I gave it to you as a gift.
I wanted it to remind you...
to continue making wines that embrace...
your passion and dedication.
You also told me this then.
You said that I should...
pass this glass on when I meet a mentee that deserves it.
If Bom...
successfully brews the wine she learns from you,
please give this to her.
Well, why don't you teach her...
and also give this to her yourself?
To Bom, you're a much better teacher...
than I can ever be.
Please do it for me.
Goodness. I really can't believe it.
Tell me. Why were you at that stupid ceremony...
serving as a foil to Bae Gook Hee?
I wouldn't have come if I had known that's what it was going to be like.
Gosh, stop it.
I told you to stop talking about it.
By the way, is Bae Gook Hee sick or something?
I thought she looked really pale the last time I saw her,
and I saw her taking some pills today.
You saw that?
She really should be taking a break now instead of working.
Even chemotherapy isn't guaranteed to work.
Wait, what did you just say?
Chemotherapy?
Does she have cancer?
Mum, congratulations again on your research lab.
Thanks.
But there's pressure that comes with having a lab with my name.
Ms Bae!
Ms Bae. Oh, I'm sorry.
You're in the middle of your meal.
Gosh, look at you.
Hey, you're the one who made this family lose everything they had.
How could you visit them after everything you've done?
I was just about to leave.
Fine. Anyway...
This is for you.
You're in the middle of eating, so I'll keep it short.
Ms Bae, I heard that your health is in a very bad shape.
You should let my husband take care of the research lab...
and focus on taking care of your health and life.
That's my suggestion.
What are you talking about now?
Isn't it a bit crazy for you to embark on a new project now?
Please leave.
Well, it looks like...
your family has no idea at all.
Mr Choi, what a horrible twist of fate!
Your second wife passed away, and now your first wife is also...
Look.
That's enough.
Goodness, you're really out of line.
I know that you're holding a grudge against us,
but you should not talk about our family in that manner!
Sun Young. Please leave, okay?
Goodness.
Look at you. You can't even talk back to me at home.
You're raising your voice to me because we're here now.
Do you even know what your mother is going through right now?
Stop harassing us, and leave now please.
- Goodness. I'm leaving. - Gosh.
Now I see that you don't deserve my pity.
I gave you advice from my heart, but you refused to take it.
My goodness. Tae Joon.
You look great in the fedora.
You look like Marlon Brando in the movie "The Godfather".
Do I?
You even use beautiful words.
Maybe I should thank the person...
who gave me this as a present more properly.
You should.
Why don't you treat him a meal at a nice restaurant?
Shall I?
You know my secretary, right?
She bought this for me when she went on a business trip.
I have no idea of what she likes though.
Your secretary who always wears revealing outfits gave you this?
It looks nice.
Oh, my. That's Tae Joon's secretary.
Goodness. That's Tae Joon.
Tae Joon!
Why are they walking arm in arm?
Tae Joon!
Oh, no.
Tae Joon, why didn't you answer the phone earlier?
Mi Dal, I can't talk to you right now.
I'll call you back later.
Hello?
How can he hang up the phone like this?
Mi Dal.
You startled me.
I can't talk to you on the phone.
I want to talk to you face to face.
Write down...
everything you did today without missing anything.
What?
Do you really want to know what I've been doing?
Let's forget about this,
and eat some sweets to make ourselves feel better.
I used up all my energy today. I am exhausted.
You used up all your energy?
What did you do to use up all your energy?
What on earth did you do?
Hello, Ms Lee.
How have you been?
Mr Kang, it's been a while.
I'm here to tell you good news.
I met Bok Hee whom I'm meant to be with after a long wait.
I realised that we have a close tie with you two.
Even though it hasn't been long since we first met,
we are going to get married.
What... What did you say?
That's amazing.
I'm happy for you. Congratulations.
I'm telling you this from my experience.
If you love each other, get married and live together.
It makes you really happy.
You can see how happy I am.
It's really good.
When I saw cheonhyehyang, it reminded me of you.
I remembered that you like this.
- Try this. - It's okay.
You didn't have to buy me this.
Did you prepare to open your shop all right?
The fridge cost the most, but fortunately, Jung Ki...
I mean, everyone helped us.
So it's going well.
I'll make it a success in three years, and repay your kindness.
You know they say that the good comes with the bad.
Now that you've overcome the crisis, only good things will happen to you.
I am home.
- Hi. - Please come.
Have some cheonhyehyang.
Mr Choi.
Jung Ki, thank you.
It's okay.
He took a cash advance?
I can't believe him.
Jung Ki, how could you do this?
Why would you take a cash advance?
Why did you go through my stuff?
I'm struggling to save money for Bom and Ma Ru's house.
What did you use that money for?
Should I tell you every time I spend money?
Are you... having an affair?
How could you say that?
Then, tell me. Why can't you tell me?
Jung Mi said she needed money for a new fridge, so I bought one.
So what? An affair?
What's the point of apologising to you for what I've done wrong?
You're still thinking of me as a horrible husband...
who cheated on you.
Because you keep treating me as though I was still doing wrong,
I'm too dispirited to live with you.
Gook Hee is becoming...
more sensitive and fussy as she gets older.
She gets mad at me for petty things lately.
It suffocates me.
It's not easy to be around her.
Bom doesn't even answer when I talk to her lately.
She looks so worried and burdened.
I am sad, too.
She gets it from her mum.
Bom acts just like what her mum used to do when she was young.
I will go to the bathroom.
Okay.
My goodness.
Mum, have breakfast.
Bom, why are your eyes swollen so much?
Bom is still like a little girl.
She read a sad novel and cried all night long.
The day after I drink, you should make bean sprout soup...
with some chili powder for my hangover.
Gosh.
Why is it so bland?
Did you forget to put in salt?
From now on, we'll have mild food only.
We'll avoid oily food, and use salt at the minimum.
Why is water lukewarm?
Gook Hee, go bring me cold water.
I will bring it.
You two sit down.
I asked her to bring me water.
Dad, please stop it.
How dare you talk back to me?
Everyone, listen carefully.
I've been too easy on you.
But from now on, I will be a strict father.
I just want you to know that.
I am so glad to hear you say that.
The talisman I bought didn't go to waste.
Grandma, you stop it, too.
Everyone, please stop giving Mum a hard time.
Bom, what's wrong?
Bom.
You must have failed to teach your children right.
She is so rude.
Please. I'm begging you.
You don't know that Mum is...
Please pick up, Ah Ran.
I really don't know what to do.
(Bom)
You should take care of your mum. Don't waste your time on calls.
Ah Ran is cooking now. Call her later.
Sun Young, breakfast is ready.
After you do the dishes, run an errand for me.
Since it's a holiday, rather than doing nothing at home,
you'd better help your mother-in-law, right?
I understand.
Poor my mum.
What can I do for her?
Stop it.
I will help her recover.
I will do whatever it takes.
You want me to run an errand.
Sure, I'll definitely do it for you.
You can only smile for a few more days.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
Why is this broken?
(Bom)
When did Bom call me?
Bom!
Ah Ran.
Jung Ki, I'm sorry for suspecting you.
You know our financial situation. When I saw the cash advance...
Forget it.
Why should I even bother talking to you?
Why are you being like this?
What is the matter?
By any chance, is it because of Gil Soo?
Mum is...
- Girls. - What about Mum?
Tell me. Did something happen to Mum?
Mum has cancer.
Mum is diagnosed with cancer, Ah Ran.
Ah Ran...
Bom, what are you talking about now?
What are you two talking about now?
Dad.
