Episode 13
May I have the bill please?
I'll pay.
No, I ate practically everything.
You didn't have any.
Don't be late. Tomorrow at 11.
Okay. Goodnight.
That was mean.
She didn't even say goodbye to me.
You didn't say bye to her, either.
But she's the one leaving!
I was going to forget about it if she said goodbye to me
because we have a shoot tomorrow.
Then you can take the first step.
See you tomorrow.
Set up everything for the shoot.
Why would a guy get into a fight with a girl?
Ugh, this is going to get ugly for me.
You got into a fight with Jaeseong?
Yeah.
Why?
Well...
He's a showoff.
He could stand to be a showoff.
You should have seen the way Seongsu shows off.
I can't even stand the sight of him.
He calls himself Leslie Cheung.
Please!
When you see Jaeseong tomornow, apologize to him.
It won't help you to be fighting with the producer.
Fine.
I heard you got into another fight with Seongsu.
You should try to get along with him for the program.
I can't get along.with the likes of him.
Don't even mention his name.
I'm scared I might see him in my dreams.
I'm going to go wash up.
Actually, we got into the fight because of Ilyeong.
Because of Ilyeong?
This FD who was with us said that Ilyeong and Seongsu could become
an item and Jaeseong said his uncle's too good for her
that Ilyeong's way too old.
What?
Don't you ever tell Ilyeong this.
If she finds out, she might beat up that producer of yours
even if it costs her, her job.
Of course.
If she hears that, she'll curse that family forever.
I can barely talk.
We had so many guests over at the house today
so I had to sing a dozen songs.
I don't know why I had to MC the show "Korean Traditional Songs".
I shouldn't have learned how to sing.
Did you apologize to your friend at the home shopping network?
Yeah, it's fine.
I'd like to see your friend tomorrow.
I hope we won't have guests over tomorrow.
I have a shoot tomorrow
but what about the day after?
That's good for me.
Then I'll ask to meet then.
Okay.
- Good night! - Good night!
It's going to be so awkward tomorrow.
Should I apologize first, since I'm a guy?
Mud Hopper
Hey, was Ilyeong always a weirdo?
I'm glad you re here I need to talk to you.
You know how important teamwork is in this line of work right?
Yeah.
I persuaded the writers to hire you
even when they said no.
So I can't have you fighting with the head writer all the time.
If I hear that you two got into another fight,
I'm going to take whatever steps necessary as the producer.
I don't care that I'm your nephew.
so know that.
Fine , fine.
Fine, fine.
Get some rest.
Is it too bland?
Who are we having lunch with tomorrow?
You have lunch plans tomorrow?
Yes.
Mom says I'm going to meet a friend of her who's a fan.
Who are you seeing?
I told you not to talk to me when I'm eating.
Just eat your food.
I think she's going to meet that woman, right?
Yerin's real mother, Jang Mihwa.
Stay out of it
How can I?
Yerin doesn't even know that she's meeting her mother.
I wonder how your mother agreed to let her see Yerin.
She only has 3 months left to live.
The woman must have wanted to have a meal with Yerin before she dies.
I feel so bad for her.
What if she gets emotional
and tells Yerin she's her mother?
No...
Do you think it's right that we keep this secret from Yerin?
What if she finds out later that we kept this from her?
She might feel totally betrayed.
Shouldn't we tell her the truth?
But look at her mom.
Would you like it if you found out your mom's a former porn star
with a long criminal record?
Yeah, you're right.
But blood ties can be very strong.
Yerin might feel differently about that.
In any case, this is the woman who gave her life.
Why don't you bring that up with mom then?
No way
I'm sure she took care of things.
I wonder where they're going to meet.
Maybe I can follow them!
Will you stop yapping?
You're such a Woodpecker!
It's Teacher's Day. Do you still have to go to work?
Yeah, nothing's changed.
Don't kids give you presents or anything?
Nowadays, those are considered bribes.
You shouldn't even accept flowers, not even a single one.
I was going to do that anyway.
That's because some parents go over the line with bribes and gifts.
I 'don't think a little flower would hurt anybody.
In the past teachers were looked upon with respect.
Now look at what's happened.
I saw teachers give interiews on the news and they said they only wish.
their students wouldn't sleep during class. They don't even want gifts.
I wrote a letter for my teacher.
This is for you.
What's this?
You're my English teacher.
See how sweet Jihyeon is?
Don't you have any teachers to pay a visit to?
No.
You must not have been a great student
Mother.
Oh, I'didn't mean to offend him or anything
Why do you look so worried?
What's going on?
I'm fine. .
Donguk, thank you for teaching me English
From Jihyeon.
You look busy.
Yeah, I have a shoot to do today so I'm getting ready.
What time do you leave?
At 11.
The three of you are going to have fun.
No way
Seyeong and Jaeseong got into a fight last night so things are bad.
They got into a fight?
Yeah.
Why?
I heard Ilyeong and Seongsu got into a fight so I said that
they might start seeing each other if they keep fighting like that
I shouldn't have said that.
Good.
What?
This is going to be Seyeong last shoot.
She can't keep coming to work when she fought with the producer.
She'll probably quit.
See you.
Take that, Seyeong.
How would you like to look?
I want to look very elegant and expensive.
And make sure my makeup can hide fact I'm sick.
I want to look like a rich lady.
Are you going somewhere nice?
I'm meeting someone for the first time in 27 years.
I really wanted to see her.
You must be so nervous.
That's why I want to look pretty.
Don't worry
You're lovely to begin with.
Hold on.
Yes.
We have to leave now if we don't want to be late for lunch.
Okay.
How do you know this person We're going to meet?
She's a relative of Jang Gyeongtae, the producer at the drama department.
He asked us to be nice to her
so try to be on your best behavior.
Don't worry.
What is it?
No reason.
Should I have texted him to appologize?
- Hello. - Hello
What are you doing?
Oh, hello.
It's been a while.
Hello.
Oh, were you hired for this program?
It's not that.
They're doing a reshoot because there were problems with the last one.
They lost all the audio feed.
Was it the reporter's fault?
I ...
Isn't that your car?
Take care then.
And don't make any mistakes.
What?
- Let s go. - Okay.
It's a good thing they had time to do a re-shoot before the show aired.
What if they didn't have the time?
Yeah.
I think they tried to go easy on her because she's the writer's
sister but I think they're going to fire her.
- Really? - Yeah.
Let's go.
I should include a story about someone's double life.
What double life?
You heard me.
If I want to attract an older audience, I need to talk about
a secret history or a secret past.
What are you going to use?
I'don't know, because these stories have been done to death.
Does your family have a secret that I can use?
Of course not!
Why are you getting so mad? You could have just said no.
Well, you shouldn't talk about my family like that.
I was kidding. Sheesh.
Why are you getting all sensitvie?
Are you sure nothing's going on?
Yes!
Father, I brought some rice punch and fruit.
Good.
Have a seat.
Yes.
Weren't you tired yesterday?
Did you sleep well?
- Yes. - Here.
Take this.
What's this, father?
It's some allowance.
Use it and don't tell Yongdeok.
Maybe get yourself a nice dress.
I still have money left over from what you gave me last.
Just keep it.
I know it's not easy living as a daughter-in-law in a head family
I'm so happy that you take your position in stride.
Thank you, father.
You could be more comfortable once Jaeseong gets married and we have
another daughter-in-law.
Why hasn't Yerin come to visit us these days?
You see her all the time on TV.
She must be very busy.
I'don't think she has the time to date.
Father might have a stroke if I tell him about Yerin's past.
Why did he have to like her of all girls?
I made reserations under my name.
Yes, right this way.
We must be late.
No, I got here early and was waiting
Please, don't use honorifics.
My mother told me so much about you.
Hello, I'm Lee Yerin.
Have a seat.
- Sit down, - Okay.
Ugh... I need to do something.
Let me tell you a funny story.
A long, long time ago the was a lion and a turtle having a race.
But the lion was in bad mood,
because he's the king of the jungle and he was out there racing a turtle!
He kept teasing the poor turtle.
He said to him,
Turtle, put down your heavy bag!
How can you carry that thing around?
Do you know what the turtle said to him?
Look, Lion.
Go tie that hair of your first.
You know how lions have their mane?
Let's eat.
Please.
I saw on TV how fans make picnic lunches for their favorite celebrities.
So I tried my hand at it...
You didn't have to do this...
Thank you. '
I'll take it home with me later
No.
We should finish the food here and give her back the box.
But we ordered all this food...
We can eat them together.
Wouldn t that be better?
I'd like that.
Well...
It's seaweed soup.
That's the only soup I can make well.
Oh.
Egg rolls are my favorite side dish.
Oh, really?
I didn't know.
I'm glad.
It's good.
Really?
Please enjoy.
Eat, mom.
Have some sea squirt. they're in season.
You like them.
Yes, I'll eat them. Thanks.
And some abalone, too.
I'm fine.
Okay
Please eat.
Yes. I will.
Should we start there?
Nari wrote us a new script.
Did the lines change a lot?
Not really.
They're just a few changes.
Okay then.
Yeah.
Shall we begin?
We'll start with a sketch
so go ahead and study the script.
Okay.
Let's go.
Mom, I'd like to use the ladies' room.
Okay.
Thank you so much for today.
I'll never forget what you did for me, even after I'm dead.
Not at all
You even made lunch.
Today must have been a great birthday for Yerin.
Wasn't that woman Jang Mihwa?
She was that woman with Kim Juhui, the announcer.
Yeah.
I didn't recognize her last time,
but could tell she was definitely Jang Mihwa this time.
She was dressed in different clothes
but I could recognize her immediately because of the makeup.
But why would a famous TV announcer meet with a woman like that?
Kim Juhui has her talk show.
Maybe she wanted to have her on her show as a guest
Jang Mihwa's life was a roller coaster ride.
Yeah.
Did you see Lee Yerin? She looks prettier in person.
Did you see her face? It's so tiny!
Yeah.
I should have gotten her autograph.
My son's a huge fan.
Jang Mihwa... Jang Mihwa...
Where did I hear that name before?
It's a lovely day in May, in the height of spring.
There are beautiful leaves and flowers in full bloom,
and they come to us on a lovely spring breeze.
This place is full of Mediterranean herbs and flowers that
one feels as if she's walking in a garden of heaven.
Wait.
Can't you look more alive?
As if you're really drunk on the flowers?
Like this?
No.
- Will you hold this? - Yeah.
Really bury your face in there.
Like this.
Jaeseong?
What's wrong?
I got stung by a bee!
Don't laugh.
I said don't laugh!
This really hurts! How can you be laughing?
Ugh.
Do you remember Jang Mihwa, whose soft porn movie "Cherry Lady" was a hit?
She had a marijuana scandal and got into an affair with a director.
She's got a story that housewives love.
Now I remember!
What?
Wasn't that Jang Mihwa we saw?
Who told you that?
I overheard some ladies talking in the bathroom.
She was a porn actress and had a lot of problems.
Don't you remember?
Baek Eunyeong of Women Korea told us at the interview.
What were you doing with her?
I wanted to have her on my talk show
Oh.
Those women were right.
Did she say yes?
She said she'll think about it.
Is it true she's a fan?
Oh, she didn't want to see me at first but
she'said she'll see us if I brought you along
I'm sorry I'didn't tell you sooner.
That's okay
Of course I should help you, since you're my mom.
But I'm not happy I ate that food she made.
Why?
Because if I'd known she was that kind of woman,
I wouldn't have eaten that food.
She works at a bar.
How can you say that?
What's wrong with working at a bar?
She put so much care into cooking that food for you.
How can you be so rude?
I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking.
I really hope you can have her on your show.
She's difficult to get, I bet.
I think you'll get good ratings.
We're here
Ma'am, we're here.
Oh.
Aren't you Jang Mihwa?
You're still as gorgeous as ever.
Here, you'll be drunk off flowers and the food
You'll meet beautiful herbs that rich in...
Seyoung.
I'm so sorry.
Very sorry.
Ugh.
Should I go buy a mask you can wear to cover that red nose of yours?
What?
Jeonghyo, it's like you had a bite of some serious serious fruit.
What?
What's serious serious fruif?
You're the only one here that's being so serious!
Why don't we just laugh it out and get it out of our systems?
Seyeong, go ahead and laugh.
Get it out here.
We can all laugh, okay? All of us.
Ugh.
Don't you think he's really handsome?
Yeah.
Hello.
I'll take a soboro bread and a cream cheese bagel.
Okay
May we eat here?
Of course.
Hello.
I'd like a loaf of bread and a soboro bread please.
All right.
I'd like chestnut bread and a mammoth pastry.
All right.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Nari, what happened to that piece on skincare in the spring season?
Yeah, I looked up everything.
And I even got a beauty columnist to be on the show.
May I take a look at that later?
Okay.
Careful.
Guman.
Come sit here.
Sit
Thank you, Mr. Seo.
Don't thank me.
Will you buy me lunch when your insurance company pays you?
If you threw out your back, you should rest home or at the hospital.
Why'd you come here?
He said he needed to get out of the hospital,
so I brought him out to get some fresh air.
How did you get injured on set?
That's what the newspapers said but that's not what happened.
Thats what the newspapers said but that's not what happened.
What do you mean?
The CEO of this film company wanted to teach the actors how to act
and he was trying to demonstrate when he hurt us both.
Seriously?
What is he? some kind of a thug?
Which production compiny is this?
It's called Riches Film.
They produced "Sad Sea".
"Sad Sea"?
That CEO has an awful personality.
I bet the "Sad Sea" director had it rough there.
He might have gotten punched a couples of times.
I feel bad for Seongsu.
Yeah.
Why do'you feel bad for him?
He had it coming.
I think it might work to put in a story of someone's illegitimate birth.
That's in all the Greek and Romari myths.
Those myths are like epic soap operas.
And what about Shakespeare?
You're right
Then I'll go through with this.
Yeah.
What was that you told me earlier?
About instinct?
Oh that's what Billy Wilder said.
Trust your instinct.
Your mistakes might as well be your own, instead of someone else's.
Yeah, you're right.
Trust your gut instinct
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
Jang Mihwa.
Answer it.
Oh.
Hello?
What are you doing?
Can you come see me?
I'm busy right now.
Will you please come?
Don't you want to see me?
Why do we have to meet?
Why are you doing this to me?
Fine, I'll go.
I'm very sorry
but I have to get going. This is is important.
What's going on?
I'll explain later.
I'm very sorry.
Is he having an affair?
Right? Don't you think so?
They say it's always the ones you least expect.
He's going to get into trouble
Seyeong, do you have a mirror?
Yeah.
- Here. - Thanks.
I think the swelling went down a little.
I'll stop by a drugstore when I see one.
It's okay
I can visit the nurse's office at the station.
When was your fayorite time when you were at the orphanage?
I don't know.
I liked Christmas the best
Yeah, I think so, too.
There were so many people who came to see us during Christmas.
We got plentyof good food to eat
and lots of gifts.
I loved singing carols with my friends.
And this was my favorite carol.
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer! Had a very shiny nose!
and if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows
Wait a minute, wait
You're talking about me right now, aren't you?
You're making fun of me?
Oh, that was it?
When the cold wind blows...
Across your nose..
Nose, nose, nose, nose!
Stop it! Stop it!
Had a very shiny nose!
You're going home?
Yeah.
I'm doing the morning bulletin tomorrow.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
They're back earlier than I thought.
Is it still red?
I thought they got into a fight.
Bye.
Rudolph, the red nosed reindever! have a very shiny nose!
Seyeong, don't let me catch you!
Come here! Come back here!
No hiding
Come here! I said come here!
Jeonghyo!
Come here! I said come here!
Seyeong, you're a real tease, aren't you?
You told me Jaeseong and Seyeong were in a fight.
What happened?
Why were they laughing together?
Are you sure nothing's going on with you and Yerin?
What about you, do you have feelings for Seyeong?
Good luck.
No!
You re good looking and nice.
I bet you're popular with women.
I shouldn't have met her at all.
She wanted to cook a nice meal for her daughter before she dies.
Is something going on with your family?
There must be something.
