(Episode 4)
- Give me your dirty laundry. - Okay.
Here you are.
What is this? Did you spill coffee?
I did.
I would be happier if you had lipstick stains on your shirt.
Instead, you spilled coffee. Goodness.
Anyway, aren't you going to date anyone?
At least you should get married this year while Grandma is still here.
If I find someone right, I will get married in a month.
That sounds like a blank check.
I'm serious, Mom.
That's only I find that someone.
It looks like Mi Ja is interested in you.
Don't lead her on.
Okay.
- Are you grabbing a drink? - With Han Joo.
I don't want to drink with you either.
- Han Joo. - Hey.
Goodness.
Hey, how did you read my mind?
Cheers.
This is nice.
Hey, you should get some exercise. Don't sit at your desk all day.
I work out.
Do you mean playing golf?
For you, that's work too.
Did you play golf today too?
I went to Suseongjae.
Why?
I was invited by my colleagues.
I hesitated at first,
but I didn't see why I shouldn't go.
You're right.
It looked very different from the pictures Grandma has.
Many years have passed.
I've been there a few times to pick up Grandma.
By the way, don't they know anything about you?
No.
Don't you regret?
If you had agreed to giving up Suseongjae back then,
you wouldn't have had to retire.
You could have got into the national team and even won medals.
Do you think that's easy?
It's easy for some people.
Park Min Ho retired and entered his father's company.
I'm not interested.
Why did he do that to us if he was going to give up so soon?
He got in your way and hurt our family.
I have no regrets.
Even if I could go back in time, I'd do the same thing.
How can you get over it so completely?
Otherwise, I'd suffer too much.
That'd make some people suffer even more than I do.
To be honest, I'm not completely over it.
It might explode someday.
That doesn't sound so bad.
Hey, aren't you seeing anyone?
Why do you ask that all of a sudden?
What about you?
I could find one if I wanted to.
I could find one any time I want also.
Gosh, we're pathetic.
I guess.
Are you afraid that your in-laws will like me?
What?
Hey, why would that matter to me?
Are you saying I'm jealous of you?
Gosh, you're really imaginative.
Have you lost your mind? Why did you laugh?
If that's not what it's about, I'll do it.
Is that what it's about?
No! Never!
What makes you so proud?
I'm so much worse than you. I'll try to become better than you.
Gosh.
Mom had to work at Min Ho's place. Did you know that?
What do you mean? Why would she work there?
I kindly offered help.
She should have been more considerate in return.
How could she treat her in-law like a slave?
That shameless family.
Weren't you the one who tried so hard...
to make Geum Byul become part of that family?
It's just that they're a bit stuck up.
Back in high school, So Hee couldn't even dare to get near me.
This is why who you marry is so important.
You take it all out on me every time you visit that family.
What did you just say?
How could you say that?
- How could you say that? - It hurts.
- What did you say? - Stop it.
I could have said something even worse.
Gosh. Seriously.
Mom!
Mom, did you work at Min Ho's place?
Did Eun Byul tell you?
Gosh, she has such a big mouth.
Did his mother call you to work?
She hired so many workers. I didn't have to do anything.
I just had a nice time and nice food.
Mom, should I cancel the marriage?
What are you talking about?
Why would you work at Min Ho's place?
It makes me sad.
Before we became in-laws, we were friends.
We were best friends.
I can do this much for her.
Think of all the trouble I went to in order for you to marry him.
You can't cancel it that easily.
Do you want to see me go crazy?
Don't do that again.
- Promise me. - I promise you.
I talked to Eun Byul and even made chicken soup for her,
but she wouldn't budge.
It's just her pride. She'll change her mind soon.
Don't worry.
The biggest appeal of shopping malls used to be their convenience.
However, these days, shopping malls with unique themes...
and entertaining features are...
introducing a new trend.
On that note,
the concept of an art mall, which combines a mall and a gallery,
received favorable responses from foreign brand and artists.
The Paris collection designers seem to love the idea.
But there's still some time left until the opening.
And they haven't signed the contracts yet.
What if they change their minds?
You have a point, but they are very satisfied...
with our vision which acknowledges the values of their artworks.
If we maintain active communication, I don't think it'll become a threat.
The plan sounds nice,
but the brands are making contracts with our competitors too.
We have enough brands on our own. Isn't this a dangerous idea?
We might end up...
promoting our competitors' brands.
That issue did come up during the planning period.
But if we maintain an exclusive strategy where we handle...
our own brands only, our customers' needs...
Do you mean that by handling various brands,
we aim for a synergy effect?
It sounds so vague.
Why do you keep interrupting him?
Hear him out.
Mr. Park's idea sounds promising and refreshing.
This might be our chance to show our customers that...
our brands are better than our competitors'.
When you run a business, shouldn't you have an open mind?
He's right.
We can't sell just our own brands at a shopping mall.
- Am I wrong? - You're right.
I need to talk to you.
What are you doing? We're at work.
What about you?
This is your in-laws' company.
What's with your clothes?
Can't you try to save my face?
Are you picking a fight?
Just answer the chairman's questions.
Don't blabber anything else.
How did you get off work?
I asked for a day off.
I feel sorry for that company.
Do they look down on you because you were hired through connections?
If they were the chairman, they would do the same thing.
- I'm sorry, Father. - Work harder.
Did you notice the way they look at you?
As you've been an athlete all your life,
they're doubting your competence.
If you come up with something great, they won't say anything more.
You should prove them wrong with your performance.
What are your plans today?
I'm visiting the store that was recently renovated.
Take care of the contract first.
Things often go wrong in the last stage.
- Stay alert to the end. - Okay.
All right.
Yes?
Chairman Park.
My sister is here. Introduce yourself.
Hello, Chairman Park.
Welcome, Ms. Hwang.
Thank you for making time for me.
No problem. I'm grateful that you invited me.
Ms. Hwang? Are you that happy?
- Chief Hwang. - Yes?
Why don't we talk over lunch?
What do you want to eat, Ms. Hwang?
Let's eat what you want to eat.
No way. She's my guest today.
Ms. Hwang, what do you like?
I like all kinds of food.
Please take me to a place you like.
Should I?
If I had known such a great writer was near me,
I would have published my autobiography earlier.
I'm glad I finally get to do it.
I'm not a writer yet, Chairman Park.
A ghostwriter is a writer too.
You will publish your own writings soon too.
- Am I wrong, Chief Hwang? - You're right.
You're so lucky to have such a talented sister.
Of course.
I'm the lucky one to have her as a sister.
As she's so competent,
I learn so much from her.
Chief Hwang sure is competent.
Father, please go ahead.
You should eat too.
Okay. Enjoy your food.
Did she tell me to enjoy my food?
Does she want me to gain weight?
Your parents must have enjoyed raising you two so much. Right?
They must be so happy to have two great daughters.
You two are beautiful, close to each other,
and you are probably closer because you two are twins, right?
Of course, Chairman Park.
I think twins are very special.
She was born only 30 minutes before me,
but she takes good care of me as an older sister.
My mom always says...
no younger one can love like the older.
Really?
Yes.
When I told her I can't write this book, she was really sad...
and said she felt bad for you.
She literally begged me to do this.
Stop it.
Chief Hwang, I'm sorry to put you through the trouble. Thank you.
I'm very glad.
It's only a matter of course.
Please eat up.
Ms. Hwang,
- this is good. - Father.
She will feed herself well. You should eat, Father.
Okay, let's eat. You should eat too.
Chairman Park, try this.
Goodness, thank you. Thanks for the food.
- Okay. - Here's an empty bowl.
Okay.
You should have some too, Geum Byul.
Sure, thanks.
It's not easy to take in a kid who was in a probation office.
Forget about Tae Gi.
And you need to stick around at the gym longer.
Mothers love it when you are around.
- Isn't that right, Master Choi? - Darn you.
Why were you late with the ride? Cheol Su's mom called.
Goodness, I'm hungry. Let's order something.
- I have to meet someone for lunch. - Who?
Han Joo.
You were here. I was afraid you wouldn't be.
What brings you here?
I made some food, but we made a bit too much.
I tried making a lunch box.
Excuse me, who are you to give him a lunch box?
Hello, let me introduce myself.
I'm Oh Mi Ja, Han Joo's friend.
I see. I run this taekwondo gym with Master Choi.
I'm Jang Dae Poong.
Mi Ja, I'm so sorry.
I have to meet someone for lunch.
Really? Then try just a little.
Let's sit.
Did you make this by yourself?
My hobby is to cook and give out food.
Han Joo.
Try some.
Since you made this already, I'll try a little.
I can't be indebted to you like this.
Come on, we're neighbors.
You can just buy me dinner sometime.
I will buy you dinner too, Mi Ja.
How is it? Try it.
These are very delicious, Mi Ja.
Goodness, it's hot.
Chief Hwang, you may return to your post.
I'm fine. I don't have anything urgent to do.
I want to talk to Ms. Hwang alone.
Please do understand if my sister makes any mistakes.
She still feels like a baby to me. I don't feel easy about this.
Don't worry, Geum Byul.
It's all right to make a mistake. We're not strangers.
- Isn't that right? - Of course, Chairman Park.
I hope she doesn't say anything weird when I'm not there.
I think my stomach's upset.
Darn it.
- A workroom? - Yes.
I'll let you use any empty office here.
You can come and write whenever you want.
If you have any questions, you can ask me right away.
You can see me at work and be my friend too.
I'll be ever so thankful,
but would I cause a trouble with my sister here and all?
You wouldn't cause any trouble.
You and Chief Hwang are in two different departments.
Departments?
I can say you are in the Autobiography Department.
An Autobiography Task Force Team.
Isn't that fancy?
Is this a secret project?
Yes, it's a secret project.
When can you begin?
I can start right away, Chairman Park.
Goodness, this is fun.
I can't do it today because I have a doctor's appointment.
Come over to my house tomorrow.
I live in a very old house named Suseongjae,
and it has a very touching history to it.
Here is your dessert.
You eat so well.
Mi Ja, that's enough.
Okay, then. That's all.
I thought you had a great style the moment you walked in.
And you're such a good cook too.
I'm sure you are a great hairstylist as well.
From now on, I will go to you whenever I need my hair done.
Where's your hair salon?
It's in a building down the street. It's called Madonna Hair Salon.
Oh, Madonna Hair Salon.
That name is perfect for you too.
Han Joo, may I come here to learn taekwondo?
Many people nowadays learn taekwondo to lose weight.
- Sure. - Will you teach me?
I will teach you, Mi Ja.
What are you doing?
I thought you had to meet someone.
Right, Mi Ja. Please make yourself comfortable here.
I was about to leave too.
Wait for me.
Hey, I'm not finished yet.
Stop eating already.
Hello. I need some digestive medicine.
Digestive medicine? Hold on.
Hello?
I'm sorry. Something suddenly came up.
I called you, but you wouldn't pick up.
I was going to text you, but I forgot.
Have you had lunch?
Oh, no. I did. Have you?
Of course, I did. Are you bailing on me?
I'm not.
Let's get dinner.
- Are you sure you can? - You'll see tonight.
See you later.
She's the one who didn't show up.
Why do I feel bad?
There's no need to get sick.
Now that it happened already, try to be cool about it.
Getting stressed out will only harm you.
You said she didn't make a scene in front of him.
That's because she was with me.
She'll slowly show her real self from today on.
Are you sure you can go furniture shopping?
Yes. I feel better now.
This is the bestselling model for people who live in Cheongdam-dong.
You'll feel the difference once you lie on it.
Goodness, Mom. Mom, you should lie down too.
I feel like I'm riding on the clouds.
Really? Let me see.
- It's amazing. - Isn't this great?
The price of that bed is confidential, okay?
Of course.
Eun Byul will go insane if she finds out.
Mom, when I get married, I'll repay you, okay?
I just need you to live a happy life.
Mom, let's go and ask Min Ho to buy us some food.
He's working outside right now.
You two should eat. I have a prior engagement.
Okay, then. Let's go.
I already ordered all of the finishing materials.
Can we open this according to our schedule?
Yes. We're working overtime into the night to meet the deadline.
The concept of our mall is an artistic mall.
Mind every little detail including the finishing touch and the props.
Yes, sir.
Ladies, wait.
I needed the money urgently, so I have decided to change...
my turn with the manager. Please do understand.
- Of course. - It's fine.
I heard your son-in-law's rich. You should treat us once.
Once will not cut it.
I can treat you more than 10 times.
You became rather bold after you got a rich son-in-law.
- You have a point. - Hey, so...
how much are you using to buy their marriage articles?
I'm using up everything we have.
I hope we can buy everything they need.
It must be rewarding to marry your daughter off.
Is Eun Byul doing well at the publisher?
Goodness, it looks like all she cares about is work.
Without Eun Byul, her publisher can't get anything done.
- My gosh. - Good for you.
- Goodness. - That must feel rewarding.
I envy you.
(House)
This is the last one, ma'am.
What do you call this?
(House)
- That's Suseongjae. - Pardon?
My house is called Suseongjae.
Great job, ma'am.
That's it for today.
(Doctor's office)
Why does the taste of the beans keep changing?
We're famous for being picky with ingredients.
If this continues, we'll get a new partner.
Exactly. I was...
- All right. It's your last chance. - That's why...
I recommended you so strongly.
She understands what I say so well.
That laughter sounds familiar.
- Is it Mr. Park? - No, Mother.
Why don't we have naengmyeon before going home?
- Should we do that? - It sounds good to me.
It's on me. Let's go.
You can enjoy the beauty of the blank space in this painting.
The blank space?
I'm sure the painter didn't need much paint.
The beauty of an empty space is the essence of Oriental paintings.
Leaving an empty space is harder than filling up the paper.
It's what the West appreciates about Oriental paintings.
With all this empty space, it does look refreshing.
By the way,
I ran into Mr. Choi at the hospital.
When will we ever stop seeing them?
I'm so sick of them.
It'll be over once we win the lawsuit.
Is it certain that we'll win?
Of course. I never play a losing game.
(Sambong Pork Soup)
Did you learn self-defense martial arts?
You were very agile.
Not many people can react to a headlock so fast.
I learned taekwondo when I was little.
I even got a black belt.
I wore it around all the time.
When did you start taekwondo?
I started when I was 6, and I got kicked out in the 12th grade.
You can get kicked out too?
- I retired as a professional. - I see.
If you were a professional, you must have been very good.
Why did you do before losing your job?
I used to work at a publishing company, but I got fired.
Actually, the company went bankrupt, so I automagically lost my job.
Does that count as being fired?
I've been unemployed for three days now.
Luckily, I found a good part-time job.
You could have ordered something more expensive.
I shouldn't ask a jobless person for more than this.
Here.
Thanks.
If you worked at a publishing company, you must have read a lot.
If you work at a taekwondo gym, are you a good fighter?
Did it sound that way?
They might be friends, but they're in-laws now.
You should have stopped her.
If my mom is treated that way,
I feel like I'm treated that way too.
I'm so hurt and angry.
I'm so sorry. You can hit me if you are too upset.
Hit me until you feel better.
Do you think you can get away with that?
I'm not trying to get away.
I'll be your parents' son all my life.
Don't you trust me? Should I take a vow?
I'm not canceling our marriage because I trust you.
I'll be the nicest son-in-law in the whole world.
You said you'd be their son.
I'll be a son-in-law that's like a son.
Go ahead.
Did you look at some beds?
Yes, I liked them.
I want to lie on our bed with you soon.
Wait some more.
Can't we try lying on another bed first?
I guess we could.
- Really? - What were you expecting?
We can't.
Our first night should be special.
Even if you look at me like that, we can't.
My sister and I used to fight for chicken legs when we were little.
There are two legs in a chicken. Why did you two fight?
One was for my sister, and the other one was for my dad.
Dad used to give his to me though.
Then it's the chicken's fault. Why does it have only two legs?
Even if it had 4 or 6 legs, we would have still fought.
I don't like chicken legs so much anymore.
Wings taste better.
What do you prefer? Breasts?
Sorry.
That question was...
I like necks too.
I like breasts...
I prefer less fatty parts.
I see.
Do you usually get food all over your face when you eat?
Yes.
It's not there.
Sorry?
Where?
No.
Where do you mean?
Do you want to have another drink?
No. Let's call it a night.
Okay.
All right.
I'm going this way. What about you?
I'm Choi Han Joo. What about you?
We didn't even know each other's name?
I'm Hwang Eun Byul.
Bye.
I'll walk you home.
It's not so late, and my place is near here.
- I'll come with you. - Well...
My dad will be waiting outside.
I see.
Get home safely then.
Eun Byul.
Thank you for the dinner.
Thank you for the chicken and beer.
Go away!
My goodness! Go away!
My goodness!
(Sisters-in-law)
I already gave him all he needed. It's up to him now.
Without his father, he'd be nothing.
What do you mean she ran away?
- I'll be right there. - Hey!
- I'm sorry. - Hey!
If you look him in the eye and try to communicate,
your fear will gradually go away.
I'm starting to...
like that crazy dog.
