Episode 108
Mr. Turner is coming in.
Hello, I'm Min Hye-ju from Misung Bakery.
Yes.
Nice to meet you.
I'm James Turner.
D-Dad...
Is there a problem?
No.
It's nothing.
Let's have a seat first.
Mr. Turner.
Yeon Hwa Dang's representative isn't here yet.
Okay.
I'll listen to Misung's proposal first then.
Sure.
We Misung will make the bakery cafe as a meeting place for the high class.
Like a salon in France,
to make the bakery cafe as a center of the high class...
So Misung's bakery cafe
will accentuate the sophisticated image of Hwashin.
That's the end of my proposal.
Good job.
May I ask you an additional question?
Yes.
I'll answer honestly.
From your promise with customers and your duties as a human being,
what do you consider more important?
For example,
at the hour a VIP customer had said will come to the department store,
if someone in front of the store faints all of a sudden...
What would you do?
I believe taking the fainted person to the hospital is first.
Really?
A person's life is in danger.
Counting personal or the company's profit
goes against the morals of a person.
I see.
We seem to have similar values, which is good.
Mr. Turner.
Yeon Hwa Dang's representative is here. What should I do?
Let her in.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I'm Jung Kkot-nim from Yeon Hwa Dang.
You're late.
Sir.
There must've been something more important to Yeon Hwa Dang than Hwashin.
No...
There were unforeseen circumstances.
I'm sorry but if you give me a chance to explain my proposal,
I'll try my best.
I first would like to know what that unforeseen circumstance was.
I...
saw an elder fainting on my way to the department store
so I took her to the hospital.
I see.
That's unfortunate
but I'm worried that giving Yeon Hwa Dang another chance
would be unfair towards Misung.
What should I do?
Should I give Yeon Hwa Dang a chance or not?
She was late trying to save someone who fainted...
What would the Misung representative do?
I think we should give her a chance.
Yes.
Your words and actions are really aligned.
Thank you.
Then now that Misung allowed it,
let's hear your proposal.
Thank you so much.
Great work to you both today.
Thank you for giving me a chance.
He looks so much like him.
Do you have something to say?
No.
We'll announce the results soon.
I think it's him...
I wasn't mistaken.
They're exactly the same.
But...
He's James Turner.
How could they look so similar?
It's about time Hye-ju came back.
We'll go into Hwashin easily, right?
I don't know.
We'll have to wait and see
but I'm sure they could trust us more
than a small bakery like Yeon Hwa Dang.
Mom.
Hye-ju, you just got back?
Did you present your proposal well?
How's James?
Does he seem to like you?
I...
What's wrong?
James...
looks...
just like Dad.
Dad?
What do you--
Min Seung-jae.
My dad Min Seung-jae and James
look exactly the same.
What?
Hye-ju, what are you talking about?
Dad passed away years ago.
I thought I was mistaken at first too.
So I went home and checked the picture and...
I think it's him.
Hye-ju.
Are you hot?
What nonsense is that?
I'm telling you because that nonsense actually happened!
The picture is more than 20 years old.
It's old so it's blurry.
How could you recognize someone through that?
Then you check.
You've seen him before.
You'll be shocked when you see him too.
Kkot-nim.
Auntie.
You said you're going to Hwashin today, right?
Did your proposal go well?
I think I did as much as I wanted to.
But something really cool happened.
Something cool?
Yeah, you know the gentleman I told you about last time?
The one who said one attentive ear will hear you?
That's not all.
I ran into him in front of the department store before going in to present.
He turns out to be the CEO of Hwashin.
Really?
That really is cool.
You two must be meant to be.
I hope it's a good fate with him
so I could keep seeing him.
I hope this one works out well.
Yeah.
Do you think what Hye-ju said makes sense?
I don't know.
It doesn't make sense,
but Mrs. Min said she saw Min Seung-jae recently too.
Then is the person Grandma saw...
James?
It might be.
They really must look alike.
James and Min Seung-jae.
Wait...
James can't be Min Seung-jae, right?
Don't be ridiculous.
How would James be Min Seung-jae?
Julia turned out to be Seo Yeon-hee too!
Then are you saying James appeared in 20 years to take revenge on me?
I don't know, I don't think so.
I have to see him for myself.
If James really looks like Min Seung-jae.
Yeah, Hye-ju and Grandma might have been mistaken.
Come in.
Are you going home?
Yeah.
What is this?
From the Korean War remembrance organization,
they sent us an invitation for their photo exhibition.
They heard from the organization that you donated to
and said they hope this exhibition helps you find what you need.
Korean War photo exhibition?
When is it?
This Saturday.
Okay.
I'll make time for it then.
I'm thinking of supporting veterans as well
so I should go discuss that too.
Okay, I'll adjust your schedule.
Why isn't he coming out? It's already been 30 minutes.
Maybe he already left.
And we didn't spot him because he doesn't look like Min Seung-jae.
That can't be.
Hye-ju isn't stupid.
Oh my gosh, no way.
Then... is he really... Min Seung-jae?
He looks way too much like him.
Hye-ju was right.
He looks like Min Seung-jae for sure.
How could this be?
But if James is Min Seung-jae,
he wouldn't have not recognized his mom.
For now, I'll find more out about James.
If James really is Min Seung-jae,
there will be something suspicious.
Thank you.
I would've been so happy if my husband was like you.
Doctor.
Open your eyes, doctor!
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
No.
He can't be Min Seung-jae.
He must not be Min Seung-jae.
Seung-jae.
Our daughter Seon-ah...
I will protect her.
I'll find our Seon-ah
so that when you come back,
us three could be together.
Yeon-hee.
What's wrong?
Are you worried about something?
No, nothing.
No, something is wrong.
You look haggard.
It looks like you couldn't sleep all night.
I have a lot of work to do
so I think I overworked myself.
I'm okay, don't worry.
Health is something hard to get back.
You have to take good care of it while you can.
Okay.
The soup feels nice.
Does it taste okay?
Yeah.
Seung-jae used to like this soup a lot too.
Maybe it's because I saw someone who looks like Seung-jae recently.
I keep thinking about him.
Did you find anything out about James?
Yeah.
If you look at the article about him on Hanil News,
it says how he went to the States.
Really?
According to the article,
he almost died during the bombing
but an American soldier saved him
and through him James moved to the States
and stayed there until now.
The bombing?
Then he might be Min Seung-jae.
Then...
James really might be Dad?
What if James is really Dad?
Then when he sees you, he'll know right away that you're not Seo Yeon-hee.
But...
Something is weird.
If James is Min Seung-jae...
why didn't he look for his family when he came back to Korea?
What did he do in the States until now?
I thought about that and...
there are two possible scenarios.
One,
James is not Min Seung-jae.
Two,
James is Min Seung-jae
but there's a reason he can't look for his family.
A reason he can't look for his family?
What reason is that?
Maybe...
Memory loss?
No way.
That's possible.
If got injured from the bombing,
memory loss is totally possible.
The trauma must've been great.
Whichever one it is,
we have to check for sure.
If Min Seung-jae comes to our house all of a sudden,
everything we built up might become foam in an instant.
There's a limit to dig him like this.
It's fastest if we meet him in person and find out.
If Hye-ju just gets the cafe case,
we can use that
to naturally meet him.
Oh, you're right.
I didn't think of that.
Good.
The results will be announced soon anyway.
Let's meet him then and check.
Okay.
This is Mankyung rice cake.
Mankyung rice cake?
That's a unique name.
How could he look so much like Seung-jae?
Hello?
Grandma!
Young-ji?
You're doing well, right?
Of course.
Young-ji is doing well too, right?
No.
I miss you so much
that I'm sick.
What?
If I see you,
I think all my sickness will go away.
Can't you come to see me?
Young-ji.
Please, I beg you.
Please come see me.
Young-ji1
Young-ji!
-Grandma! -Mrs. Min!
Are you okay?
How sick are you?
Actually...
I missed you so much
that I lied.
Then you're not sick?
No, I'm fine!
Young-ji!
You can't lie even if you miss her!
You scared her!
I'm sorry.
But if I don't do this...
you wouldn't come here.
I wanted to invite you over.
Young-ji.
So Young-ji...
lied to bring Mrs. Min over?
I think that's what happened.
She was running around just fine with her friends earlier.
She can't be sick.
Gosh, Young-ji that girl is a smart one.
I hope Mr. Min and Mrs. Min make up through this.
Make up?
If they were going to make up through something like this,
he wouldn't have gotten kicked out in the first place.
There you go again.
Didn't I tell you to use your mouth in a nicer way?
What?
I was just telling the truth.
Anyways,
I don't know if Ki-soon is doing a good job treating Mrs. Min.
If she can't even do that, she shouldn't have gotten married.
Good or bad,
she should do it on her own.
Come in.
Come have a seat here.
Grandma, this is our house.
Isn't it nice?
It looks small
but it's nice and cozy for the three of us.
I play with the neighborhood kids during the day
and at night, I color and play with Mom.
I have no time to get bored.
Mom?
How awesome that you have a Mom now!
It's pretty awesome, I guess.
Now Dad doesn't have to tie my hair in a weird way every morning
so that's one worry off my back!
Mom is really good at tying hair.
Why did you bring in so much?
You can speak comfortably to me.
I will eventually.
I'm not a good cook
so I don't know if you'll like it.
Ki-soon.
Thanks to you,
Duk-soo and Young-ji are doing so well.
That makes me feel so much better.
I didn't do anything.
Thanks to Young-ji and Duk-soo,
I'm so happy.
Every single day is so full of joy.
Thank you for saying that.
I have so many things I'm sorry for.
No.
What are you talking about?
You've given me enough by giving me Duk-soo and Young-ji.
I can't repay that kindness for the rest of my life.
I came in a hurry
so I have nothing to give you.
Here.
Please take this.
No, I can't take that.
Take it.
She's giving it to you.
Misung Bakery
Yeon Hwa Dang
Did you decide?
Yeah.
Which bakery should I contact?
The bakery I chose...
I think we'll have to make a separate list.
Take out Hwasung's and...
This is Misung.
Yes, Hwashin Department Store?
Okay.
What?
Did Hwashin case not go well?
Hye-ju.
Yeon Hwa Dang beat us again
and is going into Hwashin.
Gosh, damn it.
Not once or twice, but every single time because of Yeon Hwa Dang!
Jung Kkot-nim.
I lost to her again.
I'm Misung's granddaughter
and she's a soup restaurant's daughter.
I don't know what she did
but it makes no sense for them to get Hwashin!
They should just stay in their hole in the wall and sell.
Just because we lost to Yeon Hwa Dang
doesn't mean we should put them down.
What?
How could you stay objective in a situation like this?
Gosh, there goes the kind-hearted Sun-ho again.
I can't tell if you work for Misung or Yeon Hwa Dang.
Mr. Lee.
So get your act together!
Participate when you should participate.
Why are you always pointing fingers?
What? Really?
Thank you!
Was that Hwashin?
What did they say?
Yeah, Yeon Hwa Dang was chosen as the bakery to go into the cafe!
Really?
We even got department store under us now?
I knew you can do it, Kkot-nim!
Congratulations, Kkot-nim!
Thank you!
This is all thanks to you.
Where did Kang-wook go to deliver?
He'll be so happy when he hears!
Ki-taek.
Kang-wook left.
Oh yeah.
Gosh, silly me.
I keep getting confused.
That's not something to be confused about.
Are you doing it on purpose to bring down the mood?
Let's eat some bread!
Thank you.
Have you tried their bread?
It's so good.
Yeon Hwa Dang
Hey.
I heard you lost to Kkot-nim again.
Mom.
Do you have to put it that way?
Well, I'm right.
You said they lost to a small bakery, not a big company like Samyang
and you got angry.
When did I say that?
Gosh, look at him going back on his word.
In front of Hye-ju--
can't you watch what you say?
Sorry for bringing you worries.
We tried our best
and we can't do anything about the results
so there's no need to say sorry.
That's not right.
Hye-ju.
Compared to Kkot-nim,
you were supported with much more money and knowledge but still didn't win.
So...
it's right for you to feel ashamed.
Through this,
I hope you work harder so this never happens again.
Dad, what are you talking about?
Hye-ju--
Okay, Mr. Park.
I'll try harder.
What do we do now?
When we get the results back from Hwashin,
we tried to reach James naturally.
So I found another way to meet James.
Really?
Yeah.
Mr. Lee from general affairs department has some Hwashin stocks.
I found out through him
that James is going to the war photo exhibition this weekend.
War photo exhibition?
When he was coming into Korea,
he must've donated a lot of money to the Korean War association.
The photo exhibition is hosted by them.
So we should go to the exhibition too, you're saying?
As of now,
that's the most natural way we could meet him.
Okay.
If we talk about the Korean War,
it'll be much smoother to talk about the past.
Auntie, are you going somewhere?
Yeah.
I'm going to the Korean War photo exhibition.
Korean War photo exhibition?
While I was looking at places to find my husband,
I found out about the Korean War remembrance association.
So I've been supporting them.
I see.
And they announced that they're holding a photo exhibition.
I would've gone with you if it weren't for the bakery.
You should work.
I heard you're going into Hwashin too.
Yeah.
Have a good time.
And get some fresh air while you're out.
Okay, thank you.
Don't be too nervous.
Make it natural.
See if he's Min Seung-jae.
Okay.
Don't be nervous.
Even if James is Min Seung-jae,
he won't remember you.
Min Seung-jae only saw you twice.
Yeah.
At the hospital, and when we were fleeing.
Who would remember someone you saw twice 20 years ago?
So don't look so stiff.
Go in confidently and ask what you need to ask.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you for inviting me.
Until the event starts,
we were asked to take you to the VIP waiting room.
It's okay.
I'll meet those who are here
and see what it's like.
I'll stay here.
Then please let me know if you ever need something.
Mr. Turner?
What's wrong?
My heard hurts a little...
I'll bring you some pain medicine.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
I have a little headache.
You must've come to see the exhibition.
Yes.
So much time passed by...
but my heart still aches if I see pictures from then.
I lost my family during the war.
So I come to the exhibition every year.
I see.
Actually...
I lost a lot during the war too.
That's how I became interested in this.
Did you lose your family like me?
I don't know.
I lost all my memory from before the war.
So I don't know if I even had a family.
You lost your memory?
Yes.
Everything?
You mean you don't remember anything?
I'm sorry.
I felt so bad that...
I apologize if that was rude.
It's okay.
Everyone gets surprised
when they hear that I have memory loss.
Then...
are you planning to look for the family you might have?
I do want to find my family.
That's the reason I came to Korea.
I lived in the States for 20 years.
I see.
Then...
Do you have some type of evidence to find your family?
If you have something like that,
it'll help a lot.
I do have one thing,
but it's really random.
What is it?
Would you be able to tel me?
It's a medicine bag that says One Heart Hospital.
If...
I had this with me...
I must've been the hospital's patient.
Why?
Do you know the hospital by any chance?
No.
How...
great would it be if Seung-jae comes to meet me this year?
I think I should go in to see the exhibition now.
Someone is waiting for me.
Okay.
Go ahead.
It was nice meeting you.
You as well.
Do you not eat peanuts?
I can't eat them.
I have peanut allergies.
Me too!
You too?
A few days ago, a man in a suit asked what Mankyung rice cake is.
Did he ever come back?
I don't know.
This mail is for you.
There are no records?
Then One Heart Hospital can't be evidence?
Did something happen?
The tie has been cut again.
Is looking into the past not going well?
Speaking of that...
do you want to work under me?
I think you'll be of big help.
Please don't reject my offer.
