Hae Rim!
Hae Rim! Sister!
Hae Rim!
Sister!
Come out!
I'm scared.
Let's go home.
Hae Rim!
Let's go home.
Hae Rim!
She just got hit!
- Is she okay? - Hey, little girl. Are you okay?
What happened?
Yuh Rim!
Are you okay?
- Hello? - What happened?
Where are her parents?
Hey.
Is her guardian here?
No. I didn't do it.
I didn't do it!
You need to come out. Madam...
What about Mom?
Oh, gosh.
Where is she?
Where did you hide her?
You think I can't find her if you hide her?
Where is she?
- Mom. - It was you.
You hid her. Where is she?
Why are you doing this again?
You promised Dad you wouldn't do this.
Please calm down.
You're just like your dad.
You think I can't find her if you hide her?
I'll find her. I'll find her myself!
This stupid...
- She isn't here. - Careful, Mom.
I'll give her to you.
I'll give Yuh Rim to you.
I'll give her to you. So please,
just stay still.
If you take another step, I can't give you Yuh Rim.
Okay?
(Missing Child)
(Free Lunch of Love)
- Hello, sir. - Hello.
Chew thoroughly, and eat a lot.
- We have plenty. - Okay.
Thank you again, Mr. Assemblyman.
Maybe it's because the food was prepared by a former doctor,
but I feel healthier already.
I'll take that as a compliment, sir.
- Thank you. - My pleasure.
Sir, it's time to head over to the TV station.
Five minutes is plenty, so get the car.
Yes, sir.
Excuse me. Next time,
- I won't just serve food only, - Yes.
But I'd like to give you medical consultations as well.
Thank you.
It isn't much of a talent,
but you'll let me do it, right?
- Of course! - Applause.
Thank you.
Madam. Where are you going now?
I'll get in trouble if the assemblyman finds out.
Please stay home today.
Let go. I said, let go!
Let her go.
But drink this before you go.
You're too agitated.
Drink this, and go out once you've calmed down.
I won't stop you then. Here.
You drugged it again, didn't you?
Do you think I don't know?
That's hot.
Oh, no.
Why? Was it hot?
That's not right.
You don't deserve to feel things like that.
Poor Yuh Rim spent 14 blistering summers outside.
You lived in the comfort and luxury of this house.
You can't complain about that being hot.
You don't deserve to! Never!
I don't care what happens to me.
I'm just afraid something will happen to you because of Yuh Rim.
You may fool everyone else,
but you can't fool me.
Do you think I don't know?
Our dear Yuh Rim.
It was you who abandoned her.
I should have never taken in someone like you.
Having pity and bringing you home...
was the biggest mistake of my life.
Dad. It's me.
Okay. You must be upset too.
Don't worry.
I'll take care of it.
- Send the boys. - Yes, sir.
- Over here. - I'm coming.
- How many? - Just one.
That's right. I don't know about other people's gimbap,
but one is all you need of mine.
Look how packed it is.
I'm super generous with the filling.
I know. That's why I eat only your gimbap.
- A dollar, right? - Of course.
The best gimbap in the world is only a dollar.
It's a miracle, right?
- Right. Here you go. - Thank you. Enjoy.
- Gimbap. - Coming!
- I'll take one too. - Okay.
Hey, gimbap. Give me two. I want to bring one to my daughter.
- Okay. - Okay.
I just made it, so it's still warm.
- Chew thoroughly, okay? - Okay.
Also, here. Take this.
Here, take this.
- Okay. - Sure.
Here. If you ever crave some good, spicy jjamppong,
this is the place to go.
(Flying Jjamppong)
Hello?
What?
Again?
Fine. That little...
Darn it.
You want 20?
20 dollars, right?
Yes, but do you really need that many?
For whom?
For people who will eat them.
Will you sell them or not?
Okay. Sure. Just a minute.
Here. Luckily, I made plenty today.
- You'll be back tomorrow, right? - Of course.
Thank you. Enjoy.
Darn it.
Hey! What are you doing?
I wondered why my gimbap wasn't selling lately.
You have been pulling this garbage all along, haven't you?
A student should act like a student...
and study in school!
Why are you stealing my business?
Did your school teach you to steal other people's customers?
When did I steal your customers?
What should I do...
Hey. Are only your gimbaps precious?
My gimbap is going bad because they won't sell!
You made these using leftover garbage, didn't you?
Garbage? Did you see me?
Did you see me buy garbage and make my gimbap with it?
Then how do you sell gimbap for a dollar, when everyone else...
charges a dollar fifty to two dollars?
My business model is to sell more at a lower profit.
And don't you know this is a crime?
- What? - Property damage,
making false accusations, and defamation!
Why you...
- What are you doing? - Keep yapping.
Go ahead, and call the cops!
Do you want to add assault and battery to your crimes?
Let go of me!
- Why you... Hey! - Let go of me!
You evil witch!
Let go! Let go of her right now!
How dare you assault her?
- Who are you? - Mom.
Just look at these eyes.
Ra Sung.
I told you, it's fresh.
You'll end up seasoning it with your hands.
Their eyes are too weak.
I don't want one with sad eyes like a father who lost his job.
Jin Ja?
That's right. That's it.
I want one with crazy eyes that looks like it will eat you alive.
Jin Ja has really lost it today.
- What? - How dare you assault her?
- I'm going to kill you today! - Oh, no.
Let go.
Let go before I snap your wrists off!
- Let go. - I will not!
Let go. Are you deaf?
- Let go. - Stop it!
You let go first!
- Let go! - I'll rip the scalp off your head!
- Hey, stop... - Let go of her now!
- Dad! - Suh Ra!
Dad. Do something. You have to stop Mom!
What are you doing? You're embarrassing us.
Stop. Hey. Let go.
- Let go! - Let go!
You're acting like kids.
Dad!
Please look at this picture. I'm looking for my child.
Please call me.
Excuse me. Please take a look.
I'm looking for my child.
- What is it? - Pick that up. Now.
Where are you going? I told you to pick it up.
What a psycho.
Find your sanity before finding your child.
Hey. Where do you think you're going?
(Missing Child)
Who are you? Why are you doing this to me?
Let's go. We'll take you home.
No. Let go. I won't go. I have to find Yuh Rim.
Let go of me!
Let's go.
Hey.
Hey. Get her.
Where is she? Really...
Sir, you should see this.
We're sorry, but we lost Madam.
Hae Rim. Sorry to bother you during class.
I need you to bring Mom home.
Please take a look.
Please take a look. I'm looking for my child.
Excuse me. Please, take a look.
Did I ever ask you to earn money or make dough?
Or did I ever tell you to make deliveries?
All you need to do is take care of the household...
with the money your wife kills herself to earn.
All you do is watch over the kids. Is that so hard?
It's not that it's so hard, but...
What do you do at home all day,
not stopping your daughter from making gimbap...
when her college entrance exam is coming up?
I didn't know. I would have stopped her if I did.
You call that an excuse? You stay home all day long!
- Why are you taking it out on Dad? - Shut it!
Do you think...
I gave everything to raise you just so you could offer your head...
to someone like that ignorant woman in the market?
Answer me.
Will you skip your studies to do something like that again?
I won't go to college anyway.
It's good to get experience and earn money beforehand.
It's so much fun making money by the sweat of your brow.
Why won't you go to college?
It's not like you're dumb.
You get the highest scores on all your exams.
Why won't you go to college with such good grades?
Then if I get bad grades, would you stop telling me to go to college?
What was that?
Why are you so silent?
Yes, Suh Ra. Your mom's right on that one.
College may not be everything,
but you need to study if you want to swim in the big pond.
Society is the largest college out there.
To me, society is the greatest place to learn.
- That's true. - What's true?
Stop making matters more complicated, and go make kimchi.
And don't waste those expensive spices.
Fine. I will.
This leech that does nothing will leave you.
Dad. Shouldn't you go see a doctor?
There's no time for doctors.
Stop whining,
and salt the cabbage before they grow limp.
Get a painkiller patch on your way or something.
Mom!
I've never contributed anything for my whole life.
I shouldn't waste money on a painkiller patch.
I'll just put some miso paste on it.
What? Does miso paste grow on trees?
Don't waste it!
Mom. Can't you be nice to Dad?
He gives me no reason to be nice to him.
Whatever. You must go to college, no matter what.
Do you understand?
Why won't you answer me? Will you go or not?
We have a call.
Hello? A delivery?
Sure, we can deliver to Soonhan Market.
Soonhan wants 10 bowls.
What? 10 bowls?
Yes, of course we can. What's your name?
- Hurry. - Okay.
- I'll have to hurry. - Yes. Okay.
One of these days
My youth will be gone
Just like flowers
That fade and die
Gosh. Look at me.
How did Okcheon's Genius, Ki Ra Sung,
end up like this?
Gosh.
Want me to make you some porridge?
Do you think I'm kidding?
I'm protesting with my life.
Starving will only ruin your health.
Your mom will never budge an inch.
That's why. Can't you talk to her?
I'm against it too.
Your mom may be passionate about your education,
but we can't afford to send you to study abroad.
That's why I said I'd just go for only a language course.
Only one year is all I ask for.
Suh Ra won't go to college. Use her college tuition money to send me.
Come on, Dad.
How could anyone be so selfish and shameless?
Cha Ra. Don't be a brat. Go to your room, and play house.
You bled your parents dry to graduate from college.
You can't get a job because you're incompetent.
Will studying abroad change anything?
Don't try to take Suh Ra's tuition money to go abroad,
and get a job somewhere to earn some money.
And give your little sister some good pocket money.
How dare you talk to your big sister like that?
Why are you hitting me?
If you want respect, earn it.
Why you...
What's this? Let go!
Do you think I took taekwondo lessons just for show?
Why you...
Dad, scold her!
You spoiled her rotten, and she turned into a total brat.
She didn't say anything wrong.
I can't do this. I need a painkiller patch.
You poor thing. Nobody in this family is on your side now.
Shut it!
Now, you hit your little sister with a head of cabbage?
Do you think I can't do the same?
How dare you fight with your sister who's 15 years older than you?
Look at you, fighting with your sister who's 15 years younger.
We spoiled you rotten.
I'll teach you some manners today.
Don't worry about my manners. Why don't you grow up first?
Hey!
What are you doing with food?
Stop it right now!
Hey!
Do you have no respect for your dad? Do you?
Just because your mom looks down on me, do you look down on me too?
- Dad. - Dad.
Please take a look.
Here. I'm looking for my child.
Excuse me. Please take a look.
- I'm looking for my child. - She must be crazy.
Why are you throwing it away?
Please take a look.
Hello?
Dad, I found Mom.
I'll take her home. Don't worry.
Please take a look. I'm looking for my child.
Oh, no.
Ma'am. How could you run into...
- What are you doing? - Get it off.
- Excuse me? - I told you to get it off.
(Missing Child)
Excuse me. You can't just go!
What about my jjamppong?
What a day.
The customers must be hungry.
- What's this? - For the food.
Let me know if you need more.
Excuse me.
I don't know what your relationship with her is,
but if you want to compensate me on her behalf,
shouldn't you apologize first?
- Sorry. - Hey, you.
- Are you not done? - Do I look like a beggar to you?
Do you want an honest answer?
You don't throw money like that even to a beggar.
If you want to compensate me, pick this up, and hand it to me.
You can do that much.
What's wrong with you?
Do you know what these are?
That much won't cut it.
So that's what you're after.
You look like a student. You've been tainted already?
Tell me how much you want.
100,000 dollars. Can you give me 100,000 dollars?
You're an amusing kid.
Are you messing with me for a few bowls of noodles?
It may be nothing but a few bowls of noodles to you.
But compared to the hard work and care my mom puts into it,
100,000 dollars is insufficient.
They deserve more respect from you.
Let's call the cops.
Go. Even my mom wouldn't like it if I took this money.
I'll pretend I stepped on poop today.
(Assemblyman's Wife's Abuse of Status)
Call the media, and find out what happened.
Find out who posted the photo...
and what the person was after.
Yes, sir.
What are you doing?
What's wrong with you? Let go. Let go of me.
Let go. What's wrong with you?
Let go!
Let go of me. Let go.
Let go. What's wrong with you?
Let go of me.
What's wrong with you? You're scaring me.
How long will you keep this up?
I'm on the edge of a razor every day because of you.
For 365 days a year, I feel like I'm walking on thin ice.
What did I do?
Is it that wrong for me to look for Yuh Rim?
You won't find her,
so I will.
It's not that I won't find her, but I can't find her!
- 14 years were enough. - No!
140 years can pass.
No, even 1,400 years may pass, but I will never give up.
How could parents give up on their child?
All you care about...
is your career.
That's why you gave up on Yuh Rim so early on!
You would throw me out too...
if I got in the way of your success.
Am I wrong?
Then must you, Hae Rim, and I, all give up our lives...
for Yuh Rim to make you happy?
If we haven't found her by now, it means she's dead.
Don't you get it?
Please!
Don't treat her like she's dead.
She's alive. I know she's alive.
Let's not give up.
If we don't give up, we can still find her.
Do you even know what you've done?
If you were insane, at least you'd get sympathy.
I'm sorry. I was out of my mind.
I won't cause trouble again.
Please, let me find Yuh Rim. Please.
No. I can't take it any longer.
Say it.
Say you'll stay home from now on.
Say you'll stay quietly at home!
Honey, please.
I have to find Yuh Rim.
Fine.
Then I'll help you give up completely.
Honey. Kook Hyun.
Kook Hyun. Kook Hyun!
Let me out. Kook Hyun.
Let me out!
Let me out, you evil monster!
Let me out.
Sorry, Dad.
I just hated Mom so much.
I won't do it again.
I won't do anything that will harm you again.
I swear.
Did you look into it?
The reporter said the person was with the girl in the photo,
and was so angry that she took the picture and sent it.
So the girl who was slapped...
posted the photo?
Okay.
- Hello? - This is Jae Wook's mom.
Yes, hello.
I saw the article about Madam.
The public sentiment is worse than I thought.
I'll fix it somehow.
Are you drinking by any chance?
I have a lot on my mind.
Don't drink too much. I'm sure you haven't eaten.
I don't know if any of this will even be of comfort, but...
An average person takes on crisis as a crisis,
but a remarkable person turns a crisis into an opportunity.
It sounds like you have a solution to all this.
First, find the girl in the photo.
You should always...
start where everything began.
I'll call you again.
Curry gimbap sounds good.
A vegetable wrap gimbap isn't bad either.
What's this? How is this online?
Who took this photo?
Is this her?
Yes. Her name is Ki Suh Ra.
She's a senior in high school.
Her parents run a small jjamppong restaurant.
I'll meet her tomorrow.
(Ki Suh Ra)
How has my baby been?
You're not mad because I didn't come with Daddy, are you?
(Ki Suh Ra)
Mommy and Daddy...
didn't forget you,
so don't be too upset.
Take care of yourself,
and let's meet again later, okay?
My baby girl. Okay?
Oh, my dear baby.
Right? This is your gimbap, right?
Where did you buy this?
In front of the subway station.
You sold them for a dollar,
but they're selling them for a dollar fifty.
- A dollar fifty? - That's right.
- Please hold this for me. - Okay.
Please wrap them separately.
You must have two sons.
- Please wrap them nicely. - Yes, ma'am.
Hello?
What? Jae Wook is in New York. Why are you asking for him here?
Are you saying he didn't even take his exams?
You couldn't keep an eye on one kid?
Fine.
- The person you have reached... - Where did he run off to?
- is not available. - If his grandfather finds out,
he'll be furious.
Jae Wook?
It's double other gimbap, but it tastes 10 times better.
It's totally addicting.
You're such a good businessman.
- A dollar fifty? - Yes.
Here.
- Have a nice day. - Thank you. Enjoy.
Fresh gimbap!
Fresh, homemade gimbap made with love...
is only a dollar fifty.
I'll take one.
I said I'll take one.
Congratulations
This is your lucky day
Congratulations.
This is the luckiest day of your life.
(The Secret of My Man)
My mom seems to be getting worse.
If only I hadn't taken Yuh Rim out that day...
It's all my fault.
Watch your mouth. What if Suh Ra figures it out?
Suh Ra has to repay me and Cha Ra for the rest of her life!
Until she dies!
Didn't you send that photo to the reporter because you were angry?
I don't know anything about that picture.
Without Hae Rim's father,
you have no chance at your grandfather's company.
Get it for me, and don't tell Grandpa or Mom.
What is happening?
What is Assemblyman Jin's address?
I have to find my daughter! Let go!
My daughter! Yuh Rim!
