(Episode 17)
This is where I recently got...
rejected by you.
But even after you rejected me,
my feelings for you haven't really changed.
I was already used to liking you...
one-sidedly.
Mr. Cha.
My feelings for you haven't changed either.
I'd like to remain as just your employee.
How can there be a reason for turning someone down?
If you're not interested in someone, that's all there is to it.
I'm sorry.
But...
I can't accept it if there's another reason.
What do you mean?
I think you're used to pushing people away.
I know I promised you that I'd just be there for you quietly,
but I don't think I can keep my word.
I'll start again from this moment.
Hello.
I'll get going first.
If you turn left as soon as you leave the restaurant,
you'll find a collection area for these.
- Okay. I'll be right back. - All right.
My gosh, you're strong.
Please don't grimace like that.
In Sun went ahead and made a reservation here. I had no choice.
Do you hate this restaurant that much?
I like it here.
Go in. I want to have a smoke before heading in.
All right.
Hey, In Sun.
Yes, we just got here.
Of course. My husband is here too.
Yes. Where are you now?
I'll wait for you in the VIP room on the third floor.
Why does it have to be at Min Joon's restaurant?
What are you doing here again?
I had no choice but to come here.
Treat me like any other customer.
Please leave.
- What? - I don't...
serve anyone just because they are customers.
How dare you talk to your dad like that?
Before you humiliate yourself in front of other customers, leave now.
What a disrespectful punk.
One day, you will be asking for my forgiveness.
This way.
Okay. Thank you.
Plate.
- Bring me the plate quickly. - Yes, sir.
Hey, dirty dishes are coming your way.
I'm getting them.
Today's new dish, gnocchi with clams and beef,
is a great hit.
It is. The customers love the dish.
Look at these. They licked the plates.
Oh, my. Is it becoming a popular dish already?
Hae Sung, you have a great start.
Thank you.
There's another order for gnocchi with clams and beef.
Goodness, Hae Sung. When you get the incentives, you're buying.
I will.
What's wrong? What is it?
Did you cut yourself?
Yes, I'm sorry.
Jung Won. How long have you been cooking? How can you cut yourself?
If you can't cook, go serve food in the hall.
How can you be so clumsy?
What are you doing? Get a grip.
Is the cut serious?
No, I'm okay.
Go and get that treated. If it's serious, go to the hospital.
Yes, sir.
Gosh.
What am I doing now?
Are you okay?
Hae Sung, empty the pot and hurry back.
Yes, sir. I'm coming.
I'm sorry for making you wait.
Goodness.
I should open my own yoga studio. Working for someone is such a pain.
Seriously. My owner pays me chicken feed,
but I have to do so many things. It's so annoying.
Did you have dinner?
I have a roll of gimbap.
Hey, isn't there a welcoming party for Hae Sung today?
Has it been cancelled?
No.
I didn't go.
Why? It's a welcoming party for Hae Sung.
- I love you - I love you
- Just like this feeling - Just like this feeling
- The longed end of wandering - The longed end of wandering
- In this world - In this world
- I leave behind sadness - I leave behind sadness
- Walking the many unexpected paths - Walking the many unexpected paths
- I follow a dim light - I follow a dim light
Make some noise!
What's the score?
Hey, everyone. Be quiet. Quiet down.
- Hey, Ji Soo. - Yes?
Didn't we have something to do today?
I think you're right.
I think we might've forgotten something. It feels weird.
Starting tomorrow, we're on a summer break. What's there to worry about?
Let's party!
- Let's party! - All right. Everyone!
Let's start the next song!
This is the restaurant for your welcoming party, right?
Yes, it is. You just asked me that.
Oh, right. I did.
Is this some kind of initiation?
There's no such thing.
Anyway, you must be hungry.
Why don't you press the bell?
No, I'm fine. I can wait.
It's just that I'm hungry.
I see.
Are they coming now?
Should I serve you 20 servings of pork belly meat?
Ma'am, serve us two servings for now, please.
You can skip his welcoming party?
Why didn't you go?
I don't feel comfortable around him.
What?
Hey, you were the one who was so happy that he got a job.
What's that? Did you get a cut on your hand?
Are you a beginner or what? You've been working there for years now.
Doesn't it hurt?
I seem foolish to you too, don't I?
Did something really happen?
I met...
a high school alumni at our restaurant.
She had a boyfriend.
But he died in a car accident in his last year of high school.
But the reason he got into...
a car accident and died was because of Jung Jung Won.
She was so shocked.
She cut all her ties with her close friends and doesn't see them now.
She works here.
Hey, who is she?
How dare she talk about you like that?
What's her name?
I don't know who she is.
So what else happened?
I was so happy about the fact that I got to meet Hae Sung again.
That's why I had forgotten everything.
If Hae Sung didn't die back then,
he would've turned 31 this year.
And just like Tae Hoon, Moon Sik, and Ho Bang,
he would've found a job by now and lived a normal life.
Hey, Hae Sung has a job now.
He also wouldn't have had to blame himself...
for his siblings' unhappiness and them living separately.
- If you think of it that way... - That's all because of me.
Jung Won.
I feel so sorry to...
look at him in the eyes.
I'm too ashamed to look at him with a smile on my face.
Hey.
Everyone has their own fate in life.
Let's just think of that as Hae Sung's fate.
What else can we do?
I'm the one who made that fate.
Hae Sung, congratulations on joining our restaurant.
Thank you.
But I think I've heard that comment about 100 times today.
Are you tired of it?
Then let me tell you something new.
Okay. Thank you.
I like...
Jung Won a lot.
Pardon?
I really like your cousin.
You can tell her.
It's not a secret.
Why do you like her?
Because she's pretty.
I don't think she's that pretty.
What's so pretty about her?
- Everything. - "Everything"?
She looks pretty when she pours water.
She looks pretty when she opens the door.
She also looks pretty when she says, "Thank you."
I like everything about her.
Anyway, she's the prettiest woman I've ever seen.
Excuse me.
Did he drink too much?
Hae Sung.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
You seemed very tired,
so I just paid the bill and got out.
Let's stop drinking now and go home.
Okay, let's go.
You should always drink...
just the adequate amount.
Let's go.
Mr. Cha, why aren't you...
Why do I feel so happy?
It's because you drank alcohol.
No, I'm happy because I'm with you.
Pardon?
I think you're a bit drunk, Mr. Cha.
No, I'm not drunk at all.
Watch carefully.
Okay, Mr. Cha. I get it. Let's go now.
I'm sorry.
What was that?
- What? - "What"?
Why did you hit a passerby?
I'm sorry.
But why are you being so rude?
What did you say? "Rude"?
"Why"?
How dare you look at me straight in the eye?
Hae Sung, you should step back. It's dangerous.
Mr. Cha, let's just go.
Don't worry.
I recently punched someone for the first time,
and I found out that I'm quite strong.
I get it, Mr. Cha.
But let's just go.
It won't be safe, so just stay behind my back.
Did you used to be a gangster?
You're out of luck today.
You should get a few beatings.
Let's go.
- Let's leave. - I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
Let's go.
Okay.
I'll think of you as my younger brother.
- Pardon? - I may be your boss at work,
but just think of me as your older brother.
Okay.
In summer, watermelon salad is the best cure for a hangover.
Have some before you go home.
Okay, thank you.
Where did you learn how to cook?
I just pick up and follow what I see.
That means you're talented.
That's not something anyone can do.
Here, have a bowl.
Thank you.
Aren't you going to have any?
Oh, right. Wait here.
I started taking photos three years ago.
I never took photos before then.
Three years ago? That's when...
You're right.
That's when Jung Won started working at our restaurant.
Here, take this.
- Is this for me? - Yes.
It's a gift to celebrate and cheer you on...
for starting your career as a chef.
I'll get you kitchen knives when you become a proper chef.
You can have this for now.
Thank you.
I wonder if she's asleep.
Or is she not home yet?
She even missed the team dinner. Where did she go?
Jung Won, are you feeling sick?
You don't look well.
No, I'm fine.
I'm sorry to put you through all this.
Don't worry.
Let's get going. I'm okay.
Are you really going to be all right?
Yes.
Let's go, then.
Come on.
Who's texting at this hour?
Jin Joo.
I have a fever, and my head is spinning.
Can you pick up some medicine for me?
It sounds like Jung Won is really sick.
Who is it?
Jin Joo. What brings you here this early?
Come in. Come on in.
Jin Joo, sit here.
Where's Hae Sung?
Hey, Jin Joo.
Ho Bang, step out for a minute.
You want me to step out? This is my place.
- I know. - You want me to leave?
- Yes. - Then when should I come back?
When I tell you to come back in.
All right, okay.
I'll be outside.
What's the matter?
Gosh.
What's this about?
What did she prepare for me?
Goodness.
Take this.
What's this?
Medicine for Jung Won.
Jung Won? Is she sick?
It sounds like she's been sick all night.
I thought it'd be better if you drop it off for her.
Jin Joo, did something happen that I don't know of?
Well...
She said that an alumna came to the restaurant.
I think she heard that your accident...
happened because of her.
What?
Why would it be her fault?
There are people who think like that.
Jung Won is the one who thinks that way the most.
After you died,
she was devastated. You know that, right?
- Yes. - It has been happening since then.
She gets very sick like this once in a while.
There were times that she was bedridden for days.
It must've been hard for her to tell you these things.
But I must say, she's gotten much better since you came back.
That's what I think at least.
That must be why she's been avoiding me.
She missed the team dinner too.
I guess she couldn't face you.
That's obviously why she asked me...
to pick up the medicine when you live right here.
Can I go in now?
Yes, go ahead.
Get going.
- Bye. - Thanks.
Jin Joo. Jin Joo, when will you come back in...
Jin Joo. Jin Joo!
Jin Joo!
Jin Joo, is that you?
I'm sorry...
You're so sick. Why didn't you tell me?
I'm fine.
You're not fine at all.
You're burning up with a fever.
You should take medicine.
Can you get up?
Yes.
I took the pill, so I'll be fine now.
Get some sleep first.
Don't think about anything.
Are you feeling a bit better?
Yes.
Then shall we take a walk?
Sure.
(You're Korea's pride.)
Just a second, okay?
Here. You said this always makes you feel better.
With you,
there are so many things that I'm sorry for.
But because you're back...
in front of me like this,
I had forgotten all about them.
I am back.
I'm right in front of you like this.
You can forget about them now.
I'm happy because of you.
Back then and even now,
that's what you are to me.
So please.
Forget all about them now.
You can do that, right?
Say yes.
Yes.
