Episode 10
Are you saying there's a woman out
there claiming to be Yerin's mom?
Yeah.
And she was once a porn star?
Yeah.
I recognized her right away when she took off her sunglasses.
Oh my goodness!
Wait, how did you recognize her right away?
You told me all you did growing up was study.
I only saw her movies for work purposes.
Why is that important?
You're right.
So what happened?
I took Yerin's toothbrush and had it sent in for a DNA test!
No wonder she asked me this morning if I threw it away.
She was looking for her toothbrush?
Yeah.
Why couldn't you
replace it with another toothbrush before you took it?
You should never shoot a mystery movie.
You don't know what it's like.
I couldn't think. I was too much in a panic.
Bring me some ice water.
Okay.
I need a glass of water, too.
Oh!
There you are.
Why won't she talk to me? I said hello.
Do we have some honeyed bell flower?
Does your throat hurt?
Don't you think of your mother on days like this?
Today is Parents' Day.
Don't you want to know more about your real mother?
Yerin, are you home?
Is your throat bothering you?
A little.
It sounds bad.
Get plenty of rest.
Yes.
I need to see you both
Didn't I tell you not to tell Yeonga?
Mother I'm family, too. I need to know.
And?
Is that why you asked Yerin if she's curious about her mother?
Why do you have such a cruel hobby?
I'm sorry.
She thought I was having an affair so I had to tell her the truth.
When you married my son, I only asked you to do one thing for me.
What was it?
To watch what I say.
And what do I keep telling you to do?
To watch what I say.
We haven't' gotten the results back.
Let's try to be rational about this.
This isn't anything to get excited over.
We can't let Yerin find out about this.
If you've understood my point, now leave.
Okay
If I was going to be kept in the dark forever,
what does that make me?
What am I, a cook and a slave?
Mother doesn't even see me as her daughter-in-law
Why did you have to say that to Yerin anyway?
You are the one who asked me to bring you water!
And I didn't say anything to her.
I hope that that porn star is her real mom. And I didn't say anything to her.
I hope that that porn star is her real mom.
Yerin will have to leave once she knows who her real mom is.
She only have 3 months left to live.
Then Yerin will have to nurse her for the last 3 months.
Can't she do that for her dying mom?
Grandma, I'm going to school.
Yes, be good to your teacher.
And don't be too stressed over your studies.
I won't.
Jihyeon, will you wait outside?
Grandpa has to talk to mommy first.
Okay.
Good girl.
You and your husband have 3 months to consider the divorce, for your daughter.
Yes.
I know that Cheolju will try whatever he can to change your mind.
But don't let him succeed.
I won't.
You're too soft for your own good.
You have to be firm about this and don't budge on this matter.
I don't know how you got to be so soft.
You don't?
She gets it from you.
Donguk!
Are you going to school?
Yes
Hold on.
Here.
What's this?
It's some chocolate I made.
It'll make you feel better when you're feeling sad.
May I try some?
Of course.
I think I'm feeling much better.
Mom, Donguk made me some chocolate.
He says it's going to make me feel better.
Say ah.
Isn't it good? Doesn't it make you feel better?
Yes.
You're very good.
Thank you.
Thank you for being so kind and teaching Jihyeon English.
I memorized the spider song
so teach me another song later.
Okay.
Let's go.
You're going to appear on Jaeseong's program?
Yes.
It actually has good ratings.
I like to raise people's awareness of me
and that can help to get more investors for my movie.
And it'll ultimately help the movie to sell more.
Are you going to be introduced as the "Sad Sea"'s director?
It's "South Sea".
And recently, there's new interpretations of my movie coming out.
Some critics are saying that it'll be appreciated more 10, 20 years from now.
Do you really think that?
What?
Do you really think that?
No, well, I guess not...
But it could happen.
Uncle would look very good on TV.
I think it'll help his image.
Yes, Seongsu's handsome.
When we were young,
people thought that we were both movie stars.
Why are you laughing?
No reason.
What...
Ugh, I wish I can fire her.
It won't be easy to find a housekeeper who'd work for a big family like ours.
Yes. Why are you so upset with her We all like her?
She's a good cook and she's very sweet.
I think she's out to ruin me.
Her husband probably was my fan when he was young.
And that's why he wanted to break up with her
After that, she learned how to be a great cook
so she could come work at our house.
She wanted her revenge.
Oh, what if she actually makes a pass at father?
Then she's going to become my mother-in-law!
And that'll be the crux in her diabolical plan!
Mom, you need to stop watching television.
In any case,
what do you think of this girl?
She's the daughter of Gyeonghye's friend. She works as a flight attendant.
Do you want to meet her?
I told you I'm not interested in dating right now.
Then when are you going to let me meet your infomercial friend?
I've lost 2kg on my diet.
Your father and grandfather don't even watch the home shopping network
so they wouldn't know I'm on it.
Do you understand?
I raised you in cloth diapers until you were 4 years.
Okay, I got it, I got it.
I'll get on it.
You mean that? You promise?
How's your throat?
It got better after I ate some bell flowers, and slept with a towel around my neck.
Your eyes look like they're swollen.
They're not swollen.
Did you two have a fight?
No.
Don't be so hard on Minguk.
I hosted a movie program last year.
and learned that not many directors are successful off the bat.
One day, Minguk, too, will be a success. I'm sure of it
Yeah... Right, Minguk?
She should be worrying about herself, not about her brother.
She could go from being the daughter of a respected announcer
to the daughter of a porn star overnight, once we get the results.
She could go from stardom to complete scandal.
Let me know what the results say.
Yeah.
Wait, why don't I go with you?
I'd like to see what she looks like.
Are you enjoying this right now?
I'm not enjoying this.
But it is interesting.
And it's way more fun than the movie "Sad Sea".
I need you to come with me to the network station.
I went there alone yesterday and they didn't listen to my opinions.
I went there alone yesterday, and they didn't listen to my opinions.
I'm busy. Take care of it yourself.
You're here early.
Why were you waiting here and not in the parking lot?
What if the cameras catch you?
I'm busy I have to go.
Let's go.
That sounded like a woman, but it wasn't his wife
And what was that about a motel?
Is he having an affair?
Next, let's listen to a song Yerin choose herself.
Which song did you choose?
It wasn't easy studying to become a TV announcer
Every time I needed support, I'll listened to this music as I went for a walk.
And each time I did, I felt so much stronger.
I feel like I'm being dragged to a funeral.
Turn on the radio.
Yerin, your mother is also a TV announcer.
Did she help you when you were preparing for the exam?
Not at all.
I didn't tell her I was going to apply.
And everyone found out about us only after I was hired.
Let me listen to it.
So does that mean that your song choice was..
She must be popular these days.
What?
This Lee Yerin girl.
She's always on TV. Don't you know her?
I don't know. I don't watch TV often.
Her mother's Kim Juhui.
Know her. She anchored the 9 o'clock news before.
They're on TV and magazines often. They're very famous.
Don't! you know them?
Not really.
Where are you going?
To the station.
What about you?
There's nothing for me to do at home
I'm going to the bakery.
Let me come with you.
It's coming along nicely right?
Yes, you're right
Mother, you're here.
What are you doing?
Making vinegar? Is that what this is?
This is all natural sourdough.
We can use it instead of yeast to make bread rise.
The famous bakeries in Europe all use this.
And Donguk suggested we try experimenting with it, too.
How did you learn abou this?
Have you'been to Europe? How did you learn abou this?
Have you'been to Europe?
I read about it in a book.
Will you let us try the bread?
I can't wait to taste it
I'll see you later.
- Have fun, sweetheart. - Yeah.
Bye.
Donguk, have you had a girlfriend before?
I guess you did.
Did you break up with her?
Or did she leave you while you were in jail?
Mother.
Hold on now.
We need to know these things. We're family.
Was she prettier than me?
When you said you'd treat me to lunch, it was at a cafeteria?
I don't have time today.
Fine, I'll let you off the hook.
Hello.
What brings you here?
I asked her to come so we could rehearse the script.
You're here early.
Yes, I came early just in case.
You haven't had lunch yet. I bet.
Not yet.
Why don't you join us?
Let's go.
Jang Mihwa?
Your test results are out.
Yes, Jeonghyo.
Yeah.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, I'll be right there.
Okay.
He says we have to empty the editing room by 6
so I have to get going.
What about me?
You can eat with Seyeong.
Why don't you meet me in the editing studio?
You know where it is, right?
Yes.
Enjoy your food.
Okay.
I told you. It's a 99.9% fit.
Where's my daughter? Show her to me!
I told you she's on a business trip abroad.
Are you telling me the truth?
Yes.
Look into my eyes.
Is it true?
Yes.
Fine.
Let's go eat.
Again?
You can't do that for me? I'm dying, after all
Once I die in 3 months, I promise I won't haunt you.
You're eating here?
Ms. Kim.
Why are you alone?
You have a taping today.
Oh, they said they're having noodles.
I wanted to save some time to look over some scripts.
Who is this?
You've met her once. You must not remember.
You scolded her over her wardrobe last time.
Hello. I'm Choi Seyeong.
She's coming back on the show.
Oh, are you a reporter?
Yes.
But she wants to be an announcer.
I see.
Minguk.
Hello?
Mom, this is an emergency.
Oh, I'm on my lunch break now.
I'll call you back.
Because my liver's out of whack,
I keep feeling like I want to puke.
I didn't even eat that much.
Now that I threw up everything, I have to go eat something.
Let's go. Now that I threw up everything, I have to go eat something.
Let's go.
Was that a magazine again?
Yes.
What's your name?
Choi Seyeong.
And how old are you?
She's the same age as me. 27.
Then you must have taken the exam a few times.
Actually, I graduated college this year so this year is my first.
Did you start college late or did you transfer?
Actually,I had to take time off because of the tuition.
I had to take a leave so I could work to earn my tuition.
Which academy do you go to?
I don't go to any academies.
How are you preparing for the exam?
I read newspapers at home
and I listen to my voice on the recorder
I rehearse off a mirror.
You must not know how to watch the camera.
Reading the news is different from reading lines off a prompter.
What do your parents do?
My mother passed away.
My father runs a small bakery in the neighborhood.
We had many girls wanting to be announcers in my time.
They only add to the competition
I bet the networks make a lot of money off the application fees too.
Want some more lotus root?
No, I'm fine.
Here you are.
Thank you.
What about beef brisket?
Fine.
We'll have that
Ma'am, we'll take two servings of beef brisket
and some soju with ice.
And give us the beer glasses.
Don't worry. I won't throw up in your car.
Goodbye.
Do you know your way to the editing studio?
Yes, I remember
I should go and see how the image came out.
Does my daughter like beef brisket, too?
What?
I wonder if she likes the same foods I do.
I don't know.
If you're hot take off your jacket.
Don't sit there sweating up a storm.
Mom
Excuse me.
He's trying to wait it out until I die so I can't bother him.
But I have my ways.
Yes, mom.
It's her.
I was there when they drew her blood
so she couldn't have switched it.
It's a good thing I told her she's on a business trip.
She insisted on seeing her right away
Yeah.
Okay.
Hello?
How'd it go?
It's her.
What, Yerin's really the porn star's daughter?
Are you serious?
What going on now?
We're eating.
Where are you?
I don't know. I'll explain later.
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
I don't believe this!
I can't even tell anyone!
Oh, I'm going to die.
I wish I could tell someone.
What should we do?
The DNA test results are out
and now I can see my daughter.
Let's have a toast.
Cheers.
You're good.
Want one more drink?
We can call a chauffeur serice.
This is..
This is...
Hello.
Did you eat?
Yeah.
You didn't get lost
I'm good with directions.
Did you have lunch?
I had this.
That's not a proper lunch.
I like bread more than rice.
Seyeong's dad is a baker.
Really?
I really liked the bread you gave us last time.
I should have brought more.
I'll bring some for you next time. Jeonghyo.
That'd be nice.
Don't worry about me.
I'm just here to see how things are going.
Hello?
Okay.
The announcer office wants me. I'll comeback later
Okay.
See you.
Goodbye.
Since when are they friends?
I hate girls like that.
Hello, I'm Seo Dongwon.
I'm Lee Seongsu.
I enjoyed "South Sea".
Oh, it s been a while since I met someone who called it by its name.
Thank you so much.
If you're that thankful, you can take me to dinner.
What?
When someone new comes on the show,
he has to take us out to dinner at least 3 times.
Three times?
I haven't heard that tradition before.
But they do say three time's the charm
You can take us out to dinner three times then.
Sit down so We can start the meeting.
We're going to look into film stars of the 90s, over a period of 4 weeks.
That's a great idea.
Of course. It was mine.
This week we're going with Andy Lau and Chow Yun Fatt .
Andy Lau and Chow Yun Fatt?
I know their work very well.
Andy Lau.
"Lucky Stars Go Places", "Cruel Winter Blues" , "Casino Raiders"
"Proud and Confident". "A Moment of Romance".
Chow Yun Fat.
"Flaming Brothers", "Brotherhood".
"A Better Tomorrow". 1,2 and 3.
"Prison on Fire". "God of Gamblers".
"The Killer".
Yeah.
What do you think was Andy Lau's best movie?
Some say "Casino Raiders" was his best work
but his best has to be "A Moment of Romance".
What about Chow Yun Fatt?
Those who say "A Better Tomorrow" don't know what they are saying.
"The Killer" was the best movie.
You're right.
Back then Hong Kong movies were as big as Korean moives are now
It's unfortunate they had to die out like this.
I thought they always scream at each other
I think that director likes talking about the past and memories.
Do you remember Chow Yun Fatt's . line from "A Better Tomorrow"?
"Do you believe in God? I'm God!"
The ones who can do what they want with their destinies are all Gods."
You know it!
Yeah!
Herb undergoes all kinds transformations.
Let's find out more about these colorful guests to your dinner table.
Let's meet them now.
Great.
That was your first rehearsal but you nailed it.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Okay.
If you want to wait for your sister, you can swing by the meeting room.
Okay.
How can you say the best scene comes from "To Love with No Regret"?
It has to be "The Killer"!
Chow Yun Fatt is with his blinded lover and he himself can't see because
of the bullet wound; and they are crawling to look for each other.
And in the end, Chow Yun Fatt loses his life.
That's the tragedy to end all love tragedies.
"To Love with No Regret" can't even compare.
What movie can be more emotional in it's portrayal of tragic love?
What about the ending sequence of "A Moment of Romance"?
Chien Lien Wu is in a white wedding dress and Andy Lau is in
his tuxedo as they cross the town on their motorcycles.
He's foolish-enough to quit the world for her
and her love for him is pure and endless.
They know they can never be, so they wed before God.
They know they can't be together but they are happy with what they have.
That has to be the best movie.
How do you know what if feels like to wear a wedding dress when you're single?
Are you attacking me?
You don't know what the best scenes of movies are.
That's why you shot that crapfest "Sad Sea".
Don't talk to me like that! What? What did you just say?
Why, this hag...
Uncle, stop!
Ilyeong!
Drag them out of here!
Can you go outside and fight?
Uncle.
That old hag was...
Old? Hag?
Come in.
Are you going to be late?
No, I should go now.
May I get a ride with you?
I don't drive once a week as part of a save the air campaign.
Okay.
You shouldn't be fighting like this when you're in a team.
Let's all try to get along.
What should we order?
- Pork. - Snails.
Pork goes with soju. Who has beer with pork?
You don't know what you're saying.
And besides, with beer, you' have to have chicken.
Snails go well with beer, too.
Fine, have plenty of the beer and snails.
I'm leaving.
Ilyeong!
I'm going home, too.
I've been screaming at that woman all afternoon
that I'm too weak to sit here.
Uncle!
We're in for a rough ride.
Seriously.
Mom, will you drop me off here?
Why?
I left something at work.
Go ahead.
Uncle says that people still see him as a grad school student.
That's what my sister says.
What are you two doing?
We were having a drink after work.
Join us.
I'm going to the bathroom.
I didn't take you to be this crafty.
What do you mean?
You act all innocent but you get people to do what you want.
What?
You know that people will pity you if
you tell them you're an orphan up front.
Isn't that why you said that?
I never thought that.
Isn't that what you re doing now?
What?
You're trying to get Jaeseong to like you so you can keep your job on TV.
What did you say, Yerin?
Or are you interested in him?
It looks to me like you're the one who has feelings for him.
Enjoy your date.
I'll leave you two alone.
Where's Seyeong?
She left for something urgent.
I haven't had a drink with you like this in a while.
Yeah.
Should we have another drink somewhere else?
Let's just go home after this.
I had to stay up late last night with my grandfather
so I'm dead tired.
Okay.
I knew she'd be rich.
Yerin must never find out.
Do you understand?
Yes.
You be careful, Yeonga.
I will.
Who's that at this hour?
Who is it?
Mom...
Jang Mihwa's here.
What?
Yerin, do you want to look your real family?
I'm glad they gave me up.
Thanks to that, I met you.
Han Yongdeok, my brother-in-law
Lee Chunggi, the star of this new movie, got injured on set.
You two look nice together.
What?
I hear you and Yerin are seeing each other.
What are you talking about?
That's not true.
Tada!
I came because I missed you.
Let's go eat.
It must be easy to go through life if you tell everyone you're
an orphan as soon as you meet them.
She must have it so easy.
