How annoying.
Until when am I going to have to do this?
Gosh.
Isn't Soo-ji super rich beyond our imaginations?
I know, right? She's the one who plagiarized and accused someone else.
And all she got was volunteer work.
Hey, who threw that? Who was it?
Does it matter who threw it?
Picking up trash is the punishment you got.
- Just pick it up. - That's right.
Clean up well and make sure it's spotless.
Ra-hae! Na-ri!
Na-ri! Ra-hae!
Hey, stop right there!
Hey!
How could you guys do this to me?
After all I've done for you...
Don't forget that I'm Geum Soo-ji.
Do you think I'm just going to let this go?
- You little... - What...
Who do you think you are to be complaining like this?
Gosh, I'm so embarrassed.
Mom, until when do I have to do this?
All the other kids are making fun of me and looking down on me.
Hey, you're the one who did this. Why are you making me clean up your mess?
Mom...
I'm so upset. Come here my baby.
Who did this to my baby?
Don't worry. Mommy will solve everything.
Really?
I only have you, Mom.
Get rid of these dirty tools.
Those awful people!
Oh my!
What happened to "ladies first"? I'm a lady!
I'm turning 60 soon!
What happened to "elders first"?
You old geezer!
- Out of my way! - Oh my! You're insane!
Although...
we had a bit of a misunderstanding
due to certain events the last time we met,
we should be constructive and forget the past
and continue to move forward.
That's what I think.
Of course.
We can't have a rift in our partnership, right, Mr. Principal?
Did anything even happen last time?
I don't remember a thing.
That little snake.
How could I trust you?
Aside from that, Mr. Principal,
until when does my Soo-ji have to continue to clean?
She only did those things because she's young
and wanted to look good for her teachers.
Isn't this punishment too cruel?
Well, you see,
there were too many people who witnessed this incident.
Oh my.
Soo-ji is reflecting very hard on her actions.
She was bawling to me earlier telling me it was all her fault.
My innocent child...
My poor little baby...
Alright then.
If Geum Soo-ji is
reflecting that deeply on her actions,
I believe it's my duty as an educator
to give her another chance.
I'll make sure everything is back to normal.
Don't worry.
Mr. Principal, you are a true educator.
I knew you would do this for me.
Out of my respect for you,
I've prepared a present for you.
A present?
The laws nowadays are so strict,
so I can't be accepting these.
Open it.
Thank you for the thought.
Nowadays, a portrait like this costs
millions of won.
- Something like this? - Yes, a portrait like this.
That's why people are saying nowadays that art is a form of investment.
But,
is it okay for me to accept such an expensive present?
Just say that it's a fake.
And as long as you and I keep
our lips sealed about this secret, who would even know?
- That's right. - Also,
as for selecting the food provider for the school cafeteria,
please put in a good word.
Of course. Don't worry about that.
I really like the way that they drew my eyes in this picture.
They say that eyes are the windows to the soul.
My eyes are very clear.
Welcome.
Hello.
Hello. I opened up a flower shop right next door.
I brought some rice cakes for you to celebrate its opening.
So the construction was for a flower shop?
- Yes, it was. - Oh my.
Thank you for the rice cakes.
My name is Chae Song-hwa. Since we're next door from each other,
I look forward to being neighbors.
I'm looking forward to it as well.
My goodness.
You look exactly like these rice cakes.
Oh my.
Do you think I'm a rice cake?
I'm a flower!
Oh my! Mister!
You're too funny!
Oh, my apologies.
You just remind me so much of my older brother. I'm sorry.
Well, I am technically still older than you.
Just think of me as a big brother.
Is that okay?
Brother.
Since you're going to open a flower shop,
could I ask you something?
What's going on? Who's that woman?
I learned it but it was so difficult for me.
Not at all.
You're here.
Why are you so shocked?
It's almost like you got caught for doing something bad.
Doing something bad?
I'm just happy to see you.
Forget it.
But, who is this?
Hello. You're the owner of the real estate office, aren't you?
I'm Chae Song-hwa.
I opened the flower shop next door, Life's Like a Flower.
Yes. Hello.
So you're the owner of Life's Like a Flower.
I would've given you a good deal if you contracted at my office.
What a shame.
I know, right?
Then I'll be going along.
Leave these here.
I'll deliver it to you.
What kind of convenience store delivers?
She bought a lot of items because she needs to prepare
for the opening of her store.
Just leave them. I'll bring them over.
Will you do that for me?
Thank you, brother.
"Brother"?
It's because she said I remind her a lot of her older brother.
So I told her to call me brother.
Gosh, how nice for you.
You now suddenly have a younger sister. How nice.
Does it bother you a lot?
Should I tell her not to call me that?
Bother me?
Someone's going around telling me that life's like a flower.
But to me, life's just like a weed.
Goodness.
I can't believe this.
Gosh, her temper...
Are you a bee or something? You just walk in and sting me every time.
No, right?
Wait, is she jealous?
No matter how I see it, it looks like she's jealous.
Which one should I pick?
I wondered why you kept going on about coming to a bowling alley.
Mi-nam, you're just here to show off, aren't you?
How can you just study all the time? You need to enjoy yourself too.
I was thinking about you guys when I suggested it.
And I am pretty good as bowling as well.
Ro-bin, you must be pretty good at bowling.
How unusual.
But you're no match for me.
How does betting on a match sound?
The loser treats the winner like a boss for the entire day. How about it?
Why would we bet?
Ro-bin,
are you cowardly backing out?
Mi-nam looks like he'd be better at bowling.
- I think so too. - I think Ro-bin's going to win.
Me too.
I think Ro-bin's going to win.
Okay. Let's do it.
Yes!
- Mi-nam! - You're so good!
- Come sit. - Awesome!
Why are you so down?
Are you losing confidence
after seeing the great Mi-nam throw?
I'm not confident...
that I'm going to lose to you.
- Awesome! - That was amazing.
- Hey. - Are you kidding me?
You're pretty good.
He's so good.
- Wow. - He's better.
I can't believe it.
- Hey. - What's with him?
This can't be right.
What are you doing?
Boss, please have a seat.
Okay, work hard.
Yes, Boss.
Should we split into two teams and play a game?
- Okay. - Actually,
I'm not good at bowling, so I'll sit out.
Then you sit out too, Ro-bin.
If you join, it's unfair.
First your right foot goes out.
Then as you put your left foot forward,
extend your left arm.
- Like this? - Yes.
Then with the ball in your right hand, pull back.
And maintain your posture as you roll it.
Not like that.
Okay, so first,
put your right foot in front.
Put your right foot in front.
My heart is doing it again.
If I die, it's going to be because of a heart attack.
Lower your position.
Then roll it. Extend all the way.
Then pull the ball back, and roll it.
Don't do it like earlier.
Roll the ball between number one and three.
Ro-bin has really long eyelashes.
They're twice as long as mine.
Got it?
Okay, got it.
Goodness.
I knew this would happen.
Surprise!
Mom! When did you get here?
Not too long ago.
How long as it been?
I missed you, my son.
You really surprised me.
You should have contacted me. I would have at least picked you up.
I didn't on purpose so I could surprise you.
And I was curious how you boys were living too.
The house is a little dirty, isn't it?
We were going to clean after our test today.
It's fine. I did it all.
But it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
- You must have had a hard time. - Not at all.
What about Dad? He didn't come with you?
I'll tell you about that after Ro-bin comes home.
We have really good news.
Go wash up. I'll cook a meal for you for the first time in a while.
I just got a strike. Did you see it?
You've really got the skills for bowling.
I shouldn't have been so silly.
Give me some tips next time.
How are you so good?
I'll get going.
Here.
What is this?
Your birthday present.
You remembered my birthday?
I'm touched.
It's the exact same thing as the one I lost.
How did you get this?
I couldn't find it when I tried to buy another one.
I found it.
Really?
I just saw it while passing by and bought it for you.
Take this.
I like you,
but only as a friend.
I want to continue just being friends.
Is it okay for me to be accepting this?
What's wrong? You don't like it?
If you don't like it, I can change it to something else.
No, I like it. I really do.
Give it to me.
Don't lose it this time.
I won't. Thank you.
It's nice.
Really?
The bracelet is nice.
I was talking about the bracelet too! Gosh.
It looks good on you.
Right? I think it is really pretty.
Ro-bin! Ji-na! What are you guys doing?
What do you mean?
You guys scared me. Stop sneaking around.
You two seem very suspicious.
Why? What is it?
You know. They seem all
awkward and shy
yet so close to each other.
Really?
Are you two dating?
For real?
"Principal Go Jin-sang was biased and unfair during the incent
of plagiarism that occurred within school grounds.
On the grounds of attacking a student's character,
the Board of Disciplinary Action has sent this notice."
Who could be the one defaming me into a villain?
Who could have snitched on me?
It's got to be one of the teachers at our school.
PRINCIPAL GO JIN-SANG
There's no doubt it's one of them.
But who is it?
Mr. Lee?
No way.
Mr. Choi?
Ms. Jung?
She's not high enough on the ladder to do that.
Yes, Ms. Maeng.
Is she sending an e-mail to the board?
Ms. Maeng looks so lost all the time.
She just acts all nice. I didn't take her to be like that.
Anyway, I don't like both the students and the teacher of this class.
Yes?
Mr. Principal, you called?
Yes, Mr. Lee.
I gave it a lot of thought,
but punishment isn't the only answer in this field.
So let that freshman, Geum Soo-ji, off of her punishment today.
Already?
She has a few days left.
Soo-ji is reflecting very deeply over her actions.
So to the students who reflect,
rather than punishing them,
we should lead them through forgiveness and understanding.
Don't you think?
Let Geum Soo-ji off of her punishment. Go on.
But her actions were...
Forget that. Just go do it.
- Mom? - My son.
Give me a hug. It's been too long.
When did you get here? You didn't even call.
I rushed to get here, so I couldn't.
Ro-bin, have you been doing well while I was gone?
Yes.
How long are you staying in Korea for?
Why? Do you want me to leave quickly?
No, that's not it.
I'll wash up first.
He's become so cold.
I miss the old Ro-bin.
Dad went to the States for work.
It went well.
So we're all going to be moving to the States.
What?
- What? - The States?
- All of a sudden? - When we go this time,
we need to be there for a long time. We can't just leave you here forever.
When are we going?
Not right away, right?
Your dad's workplace is going to help out.
I think it'll happen quicker than you think.
So in the meantime, do what you have to do before you leave.
What's wrong?
You don't want to go?
I thought you would enjoy this news.
No, we do want to go.
It's just so sudden.
I don't want to go.
I'm going to live in Korea.
- What? - Ro-bin,
what are you talking about?
You're going to stay in Korea?
Yes. I can live by myself.
Take Jae-yi with you.
Ro-bin.
Stay here. I'll go talk to him.
You looked like you were dying for a few days.
What's with you shaking your butt around the house now?
Sa-na.
If a boy gets a girl water,
buys her presents, and tells her she's pretty,
they're a couple, right?
Did the boy ask her out?
No. That didn't happen.
Then, no.
They're just talking unless they say "I like you" and ask them out.
Do you have to say that kind of stuff?
If you like each other, can't you just get each other with just a look?
There's a lot of kids out there who stopped at that stage.
Don't get yourself hurt
and ask them out, get what you need, and be clear about it.
But who is it? Who's the guy you're talking to?
Is it someone that I know as well?
No. It's nothing.
This is suspicious.
Ji-na, Sa-na.
Go get the laundry from upstairs.
Okay, Mom.
Let's go.
Ro-bin.
Stop acting out.
Stop acting like a child in front of Mom.
What? Like a child?
You're acting like a complete child right now.
You're whining that you don't want to go to the States.
I could tell you were trying to tell her that you're having a hard time.
What do you know?
- Do you know my feelings? - I don't.
That's why I couldn't say anything up until now.
But you've crossed the line.
You need to grow up, Ro-bin.
So this is what you really think.
Fine.
Why don't you stop pretending to be the kind, older brother?
You're not my real brother.
What did you just say?
Wouldn't it be better for you if I wasn't around?
Mom only needs you.
What did you just say? You little...
I'm sorry.
You take back what you said too.
Why?
It's true.
We're strangers.
Ro-bin, what's with you?
Darn it.
Ro-bin.
I'm sorry, Jae-yi.
I didn't mean to listen in.
It's okay. Why would you be sorry?
But,
is what Ro-bin said...
true?
Yes.
When Ro-bin was young, his real parents passed away.
So my parents adopted him.
Did you know from the very beginning?
No.
We didn't know until last year.
We saw it by coincidence.
But Ro-bin changed a lot after that.
He was a bright, little rascal back then.
Do you want some pizza?
Thank you.
But aren't you broke?
Where did you get the money...
I got you, didn't I?
I ate the whole pizza by myself.
Ro-bin, you little...
Come here. Get over here.
- Why? - What's with this?
- What's wrong? - You little...
- Are you kidding me? - What's wrong with it?
Get over here, you rascal.
