(Sweet Home, Sweet Honey)
(Episode 31)
How did he make time to keep a diary?
Bom.
Ma Ru!
(National Centre for Missing Children)
Did you get home safe yesterday?
Yes. The manager dropped me home.
What? To your home? Why?
What do you mean why? He said it's dangerous at night...
Your neighbourhood is safe.
I remember seeing a lot of people in your area around that time.
You always walked me home too.
Well, I... I'm your friend.
Let's get to work.
We have a group reservation tonight.
It's going to be super busy.
Didn't the manager say anything?
Say what?
No, it's nothing.
Did you get a good night's sleep?
Mr An.
You seem tired, I guess it's because you worked so much lately.
Not at all.
I'm just worried that I made a bad reputation...
for Poongildang without getting anything done.
No way.
Although he didn't show it,
I'm sure Mr Kim thought positively of you.
What if I made a mistake?
You didn't make any mistakes.
I'm sure he's right.
Since Ma Ru was there, he must know.
I hope that's true.
Did Mr Kim get in touch with you?
It's not easy to persuade him.
By the way, I know you were recently assigned to the brewing team.
I'm sorry to ask you to work the kitchen as well.
An intern shouldn't be so picky.
If the bar is busy, anyone can help out.
Okay. Until the day you become a permanent employee,
let's work hard together.
Yes.
It's right here.
Bom, you found out where Mr Kim was...
and worked so hard to persuade him. I hope you don't get discouraged.
It's hard not to be disappointed though.
But whether Mr Kim comes to Poongildang or not,
I learned so much from him during those two days.
This could be a little inappropriate to say,
but I think you're very brave...
and cute at the same time, Bom.
Thank you for the compliment.
Go in now. Your mother must be getting worried about you.
Kyung Woo. You know the new contract we have to work on?
Yes. Shall I work on it now?
No, it's okay.
I'll take care of it.
Tae Ho. You know the new contract we have to put together for Mr Kim?
I need to talk to you about it, so can you meet me at the head office?
Ah Ran. We just got a reservation for a large party, so I'm busy now.
You can have Mr Yang handle it and come here to meet me.
I'm sorry.
Tae Ho. Tae Ho?
What just happened? Did he just hang up on me?
Ah Ran.
But you have me.
What can you do for me in this situation?
What can you help me with, Tae Ho?
Mr Kim can make good wines,
and we'll work hard to make his wines known to many people.
Stop being so stupid.
Whenever you talk like that,
do you know how incompetent you look?
Let's carry it together.
Are you okay? Are you hurt?
I'm okay.
What happened?
Are you really okay?
I'm really fine.
Ma Ru, what about you?
What do you mean you're fine?
Come with me.
- Gosh, let's clean this up. - Yes, let's do it now.
Ma Ru, did you get hurt at all?
- Let me see. - I'm fine.
I'm sorry. This happened because of me.
But Ma Ru, don't take too much care of me here.
Why do you say that? Why shouldn't I do that?
I'm grateful for all of your care and support,
but I'm worried what other people would think about it.
Who are you talking about exactly?
- Mr An? - Mr An and...
I think I should handle my own work in the kitchen.
If you continue to stay beside me and help me with everything,
people might think that I'm not doing my own work.
You understand where I'm coming from, right?
Okay, I got it.
Thanks, anyway.
I'm lucky to be able to work with a great friend like you.
I think I'm very lucky to have met you.
If that's the case, both you and I are lucky.
I heard that you've met with Mr Kim?
Yes. But it doesn't look like he has made up his mind yet.
I'm planning on visiting him again in the near future.
Okay.
He won't be easily persuaded.
I'm worried I might be pestering him because of my greed.
I know that he doesn't like being tied down.
He's the one person whom our company really needs at this stage,
so I'm going to make sure that I bring him.
Thank you for allowing me to be in charge of this project.
By the way, the intern at our traditional bar...
You mean Oh Bom, right?
I took your advice and apologised to her.
You did?
I thought about it and realised that I acted hastily.
Because I was too focused on protecting the company,
I wasn't being considerate of other people's feelings.
I promise I won't make you worry again in the future.
I see.
Good job.
And Ah Ran,
Pa Ran's declaration of disappearance has been issued.
Sorry?
I didn't know that it would be processed this quickly either.
(Declaration of Disappearance)
I'll be here for you, Mum.
I'm the only one you have now.
Okay.
I don't understand her.
I know that she can't forget Pa Ran.
How is she going to get Pa Ran out of her mind?
Pa Ran. Regardless of what the papers say,
you know that you're still my precious daughter, right?
Dad, at Mum's office...
What are you doing here?
Goodness. Are you even cleaning the room for her now?
You know how busy Gook Hee is.
I'm just taking care of it as I'm cleaning the entire house.
Even when Mum was extremely busy, she always cleaned her own room,
our living room and bathroom before she left for work every morning.
Why are you acting like this, Dad?
Are you just a pathetic person,
or do you want Gook Hee to like you again?
Well, it's...
Never mind. Let's drop this.
Well... Ji Ah.
He must've completely forgotten about Mum now.
Gosh, how can he be like that?
You didn't say anything foolish to your dad, right?
Why? Are you worried that I might've mentioned picking up Mum's stuff?
Shut your mouth.
Your dad might hear you.
Do you want to get kicked out of this house for causing trouble?
They can kick me out if they want to.
Aren't you the only one who is happy and comfortable here?
I'm staying in that witch's room upstairs,
and Dad has turned into a housemaid.
I'd much prefer to leave this house to living like this.
Gosh, seriously.
Why are you two arguing again?
What's going on now?
Gosh, you're so immature.
Being stubborn like that is not good for your own sake.
You go and pick up your mum's belongings,
and do whatever you want with them.
Whatever you do, if you end up bringing any of her belongings...
to this house, I will be very angry.
I really can't live like this.
Mum, don't be so heartless.
Of course she would want to bring her mum's belongings.
Will you be happy if your stuff ends up on the streets after you die?
I'm alive right here, so why are you talking about me in that way?
I'm just giving you an example.
Let's stop talking about it. Come here.
I have something to tell you.
Gosh, what is it?
- Sit here. - Goodness.
Tell me honestly.
What are you going to do from now on?
Will you continue to live with your old mother...
in this tiny room at your sister-in-law's house?
Don't worry. I'll figure out what to do with my life.
I'm talking to you now because I know you can't figure it out.
Then what do you want me to do?
Do you want me to leave this house?
I want you to get married again.
You should get married again.
Mum. I told you that I will never meet or date any men ever.
Goodness.
You're so full of it.
Do you think I don't know you well enough?
Whenever you see good-looking men,
your eyes widen and sparkle.
Stop talking nonsense and meet someone nice...
then marry him.
There is no such thing as a "nice man" in this world.
And do you think a nice man would want to marry a divorcee like me?
There's this young man whom I met the other day.
Goodness. Forget about it.
Whether it's a young guy or an old man, you should go and marry him.
Goodness. I'd do that if I was 10 years younger.
Isn't he a total womaniser?
How dare he plays hard to get with me?
Okay. If you're being hard to get, I'll go after you.
I'll call him myself.
If you're playing the love expert, I'll be the expert's boss!
(My goddess)
What did you do with the kimchi and the side dishes?
Half of it is missing.
I don't know. We must have given it to our customers.
Who are you trying to fool?
I've run this business for years.
No one else would do such a thing except you.
Tell me the truth.
What did you do with them?
Did you give it to a widow or something?
I have a delivery to make.
Hey! I'm not finished!
He's suspicious.
What's wrong with him?
He acted like he would die without me.
He made me restless and now he's ignoring me!
Why are you talking to yourself?
Why do you keep following me around?
Like I said, just think about it.
I got a very positive impression from him.
He seems like a positive guy who would make you happy.
He's so much younger than you too.
In many ways, he's meant for you.
Also, I'm not telling you to get married right away.
Just try seeing him for a while...
and decide if you like him or not after that.
Sure.
What? So you'll see him?
I don't have to teach a class tonight,
so tell him I'll see him today.
All right!
Who needs children or husbands?
How could no one call me when I slept over at my parents' house?
I'll wait and see how long they keep this up for.
Hello?
I don't need money.
I don't need a loan.
Do they even know that I ran away from home?
- Hello? - Yes, what is it?
Did you reflect on your wrongdoings?
What are you talking about?
I'm busy. We'll talk at home.
Hello? Hello? Hey!
Busy?
Talk at home?
Is he telling me to come home so that we can talk?
Fine, I knew it.
He must be worried that I ran away from home.
What is this?
They didn't even open my letter?
I'm speechless.
So the men in this house...
never knew I ran away?
Ridiculous.
Fine.
Be that way.
Fine.
You live your lives.
I'll live my own life from now on too.
What's the rush?
Okay, okay.
I'll let you meet her, so please just wait.
I promise you, my daughter won't run away.
Yes, yes. I'll call you back later.
Where are you going dressed like this?
Mi Dal, I need to take a half-day today.
A half-day?
As if you ever asked.
Come on, don't mess up my suit.
But really, why are you dressed up?
What kind of trouble are you brewing now?
You're not trying to get yourself a rich woman, are you?
Mi Dal, I'm trying to do something that's really important in my life.
I don't want to jinx it by talking to you.
I'll get going.
Hey! That little...
Mum! Come on.
You said you would meet him.
Why are you being so difficult?
I was upset before that's why I said yes,
but I still don't think this is right.
Just follow me.
Mum! Mum...
He's right over there.
Hello.
Hello, I'm Lee Bae Dal.
- All right, let me introduce you. - Why are you...
This is my youngest daughter.
She's a popular teacher at an academy. Choi Jung Mi.
And over here is a polite young man,
Lee Bae Dal.
I heard a lot about you.
Now, for meetings like this, the third wheel should go.
I'll get going.
You two have fun.
Here, sit down.
- Okay, bye. - Bye.
So are you trying to persuade me through Mum...
since I don't look like I'll budge?
What did I say?
Drink some water and wake up.
He's trying to call me out...
using an old lady like my mum? So unmanly.
If he likes me, he should be straightforward.
Jung Mi, I've made my mind up to go all the way by coming here.
Gosh!
You won't let you leave my side from now on.
Is this the newly harvested rice that just came in?
The grains are big and relatively regular.
The surface is smooth too.
It's polished over 30 days ago, so it's hard.
If we make wine with it, its colour and the scent would be wonderful.
You're right.
Hello.
I'll get back to my post.
Bom, what did you do when you were at Mr Kim's?
He didn't tell me to do anything,
so I just ran some errands as I saw fit, here and there.
I hope you didn't make a mistake.
Anyway, don't try to butt in next time.
Okay.
Stay away and don't ruin anything.
Bom did her best as a member of the brewing team.
Everyone has their place.
Bom is the intern of the brewing team.
Do you think you're qualified to serve someone like Mr Kim?
So I'm telling you, just do your job as an intern.
That's the only way to pay me back for hiring you as an intern.
Okay, I understand.
Why are you so mean to Bom?
Then what about you?
Why are you so nice to her?
Forget it, let's not talk about this.
Fine. Let's stop.
It's funny that we are even arguing about her.
This is the revised contract.
I'm going to go see Mr Kim right now. Come with me.
I told you I'm busy today.
Okay, I got it.
I'll go by myself.
Messy hair
A sight of a ghost
I wonder if it brewed well.
Wait, hold on.
What are you looking for?
My lucky charm I got as a gift. I can't find it.
Did you leave it at Mr Kim's place by accident?
Did I?
I must have...
What should I do?
You can't really go right now to get it back...
We have no choice. I'll just buy you the exact same one.
But she told me it was really precious.
Sir!
It's Choi Ah Ran from Poongildang.
Hello?
Where in the world did he go?
Could he have left already?
Messy hair, a sight of a ghost
Gosh.
Excuse me. Who are you?
You can't be doing this here.
Goodness. These wines don't have any living force in them.
They're completely lacklustre.
Gosh, where is Mr Yang?
- Where? Where is he? - He's right here.
Excuse me, sir. What are you doing here now?
When was this batch of wine made?
That's none of your business.
Please leave now. Leave immediately.
Only our staff are authorised to enter the kitchen area.
- Please leave immediately. - Goodness. I was passing by...
and peeked in because I was drawn to the aroma of your wines.
You're being so merciless.
If you're not going to leave, I'll have to call the police.
Where is the manager's office?
I'd like to meet your manager.
What will you do if you meet the manager?
Please leave. Please get out immediately.
Gosh, goodness. Kindness is what makes the real flavour of wine.
You're very unkind. Goodness.
That's right. I don't have any kindness in me.
Please get home safe.
What a strange man.
How dare he comes into the kitchen and opens the wine jars?
The issue with the blogger was resolved only a little while ago.
Now, that strange man is bugging us.
Mr Kim. What brings you here?
You said you want me to come here and brew wines.
Pardon me?
Yes. Let's do it.
Does this mean that you're accepting our offer?
I was passing by...
and realised that this isn't a bad spot for winemaking.
Thank you.
This is what someone once told me.
Some wines have a taste that makes you think of your loved ones.
Let's do our best so that the customers can enjoy...
my wines and think of their loved ones when they come here.
Thank you.
We will make sure that everything is ready and in place...
so that you can focus on winemaking.
That's okay.
That young lady who came to my place works here, right?
- What was her name? - Pardon me?
By chance, are you talking about Bom?
Yes, that's right. I'd like her to be my assistant.
That's one request I have.
Sorry?
Of course. She will be thrilled.
I went to see Mr Kim again,
but he wasn't there because he had already moved.
I'll do everything in my power to find where he is and bring him.
Mr Kim travels all over the country...
and finds the best spots for his winemaking.
Instead of dealing with such an unpredictable man,
what do you think about contacting other traditional wine experts?
There are many experts who are knowledgeable in traditional wines,
but who would be a better person than Mr Kim...
to understand the original aroma and taste of Poongildang's wines?
Ms Bae. I just heard that Mr Kim came to the bar.
- Pardon? - Sorry?
I just got a call from Mr An,
and I heard that Mr Kim said that he wants to work with us at the bar.
When I went to see him, he said that he'd think about it.
Our offer must've made him change his mind.
Right. You did a great job.
I knew that you were the perfect person for this project.
I didn't do this alone.
I did it with Tae Ho.
I was wondering who could persuade such a stubborn man.
Great job.
Thank you.
Starting today, Mr Kim here will lead the brewing team.
You don't need to do anything special to welcome me.
Please focus on what you're assigned to do.
I'm just here to walk around.
Thank you for deciding to join us, Mr Kim.
Young lady. You're the youngest member of the brewing team, right?
When did you add rice to this wine?
I think it was last week.
Please give me a moment.
Yes. It was made a week ago.
Gosh. The staff here doesn't even know when the batches were made,
and you asked me to come here to make wines?
Listen. Even with people, you have to pay attention to...
remember them and call their names to become close with them.
How can it become a good wine when you don't even know its birthday?
I apologise, Mr Kim.
I'll make sure to remember those things going forward.
Gosh, goodness. I shouldn't have come here.
You can't even take a proper care of your belongings...
and leave things everywhere,
so I should've already known how careless you are.
I'm sorry, Mr Kim.
Mr Kim, thank you for coming.
The staff here isn't too experienced yet.
Please understand.
Teaching an expert is no fun.
It's more fun to teach someone who doesn't know much.
Thank you for your understanding.
Then, let's go to the office and talk about your contract.
I don't need a contract.
We've put together a new contract...
with conditions that you would find a lot more appealing.
I said I don't need it.
Why would I need a contract?
If many people like my wines, I'll stay here and continue making them.
If they don't love my wine, I can just leave.
Mr Kim.
Mr Kim is saying that he wouldn't sign the contract.
What if he doesn't commit and runs away?
He won't do that.
He's a free spirit,
so he probably doesn't want to be tied down by a contract.
Tae Ho, whose side are you on?
Why are we talking about taking sides here?
Never mind.
By the way, why is Bom working with Mr Kim?
He said that he'd come and make wines at our bar...
on the condition that he gets Bom as his assistant.
What do you mean by that?
I guess all of Bom's hard work at his place wasn't a waste of time.
She was only there for two days, but I think he's opened up to her.
Who is she, really?
I can finally stop worrying about Pa Ran, and she's annoying me now?
What does that mean?
It's none of your business.
Ah Ran. Why are you sitting like that here?
It's nothing.
Why? Did something happen at work?
Nothing happened.
You know that Pa Ran's disappearance is official, right?
I know that you've been through a lot because of Pa Ran.
Please clean up this room, Dad.
Mum will never be able to do it herself.
Well, that's...
You came back, and all of our family is here now,
but did you know that I feel lonelier than ever nowadays?
Ah Ran, why do you feel that way?
Don't think like that.
I'm right beside you.
What can I do? It's just how I feel.
I also want to be happy.
I'm sorry.
Yes. Okay.
I'll clean up this room.
I don't want you to worry.
It's a true honour.
I can't believe that I'll learn about traditional wines from Mr Kim.
Do you know how amazing this is?
Don't you remember getting scolded by him the whole day?
Do you think anyone can be scolded by him?
Today was such an amazing day.
No one can stop you, Bom.
Hey, how about we go out for dinner tonight to celebrate?
I'd love to,
but I have to close the bar tonight, so it'll be too late.
Right, okay.
Gosh, what should I do? I don't feel like I can go in.
If people find out that we made this tteokbokki here,
it will be all your fault, okay?
Sure, I'm fine with that.
You just became an intern,
and I'm just a part-timer, so I'll happily get fired instead of you.
If that's the case, I'll trust you and make a delicious dish.
Bom, is this all you can do?
Move over.
How does it taste?
Ma Ru, my mouth is on fire now.
Yes, Ji Ah.
Why? Did something happen?
Ma Ru, I'm scared.
I'm at Mum's old office at the construction site...
Yes, okay.
I'll be there soon. Wait a little bit, okay?
Did something happen to Ji Ah?
She went to get our mum's belongings, but she's scared.
Right. You should hurry then.
Should we go together?
Don't bother.
Now that I've heard Ji Ah is crying,
I'd feel so bad going home alone.
Also, I'm better at consoling her than you.
Thank you, Bom.
Why did Ji Ah go there alone?
Dad worked in this area too.
What?
What? I meant I miss my dad today too.
I'm telling you all these things...
Ji Ah!
Ma Ru!
Why didn't you tell me that you were coming here?
I don't know. I'm so stupid.
I came to get Mum's stuff,
but because it's where she died,
I'm too scared to go in.
Your mum died here of an accident?
Yes.
Stay here, I'll go find it.
I'm such a bad daughter.
I can't even retrieve my poor mother's belongings.
Anything you do for the first time can be scary and hard.
It's the same for me.
Hi, I'm Kim Hyun Sook's son.
Why did you come so late?
It's over there.
You're Hyun Sook's son?
Yes.
I'm sorry to say this when you're grieving,
but she made such a mess and died that the rest of us had a hard time.
I'm sorry.
I heard you gave up the inheritance...
so you don't have to pay back for her debt, is that right?
It's taking him a while.
Did she have a lot of stuff?
I'm not sure.
Stay here. I'll go find Ma Ru.
You want me to stay here by myself?
I'll be quick.
Do you know Oh Young Ho?
He died trying to save your mum.
He died an innocent man...
but his family didn't even get compensation for it.
I'm sorry.
