We are here today...
to honor the man who strives day and night...
to bring the economic boom to our nation, Korea.
Let me present you the man of the hour, my beloved director!
Please come on out, sir.
- Director! - Director!
(Episode 1)
Director!
- Patches of cloud are in the sky - In the sky
- Cruise ships are in the river - In the river
- Happiness everyone deserves - Everyone deserves
Is all over the place
- Four distinct seasons - Four distinct seasons
The mountains and the fields
Honey.
- Honey, please help me out here. - You cannot be in here.
Please wait outside.
- Please. - Okay.
Please help me deliver my baby quickly.
1, 2...
- Our country, Korea - Korea
I will love
My beloved fatherland
Until my last breath
Our country, Korea
Oh, dear me!
My gosh, Mother.
- Mother, I'm going to die in here. - Hyun Sook.
- Use every ounce of your energy. - Mother.
Why is he taking so long?
Why is that baby making his mother go through all that?
- Are you Ms. Park's guardian? - Yes?
- There's a call for you. - Okay.
I'm coming.
She's still in delivery?
Why is it taking so long?
I don't know.
Your wife is having such a hard time.
But where are you now? Why aren't you here?
I'm still working.
I will go as soon as I'm done.
Okay.
Mr. Kim.
Yes, sir.
What are you doing here?
Tell that girl to take good care of him, okay?
The director has his eyes on the chubby girl.
Don't confuse her with other girls like last time.
If you do, you'll ruin everything we worked for. Got that?
Well... Sir.
To tell you the truth, my wife is...
at the hospital to deliver our baby.
Could I head to the hospital now if you don't mind?
Hey, Kim Won Yong.
How big is this project?
Did you forget that we're doing this to land that big contract?
Hey, the fate of our company depends on this contract. And what?
You want to leave because your wife is in labor?
Listen. I left behind my pregnant wife and went to the Middle East.
I got to see my son for the first time after 5 years.
How dare you use your wife's labor to get out of work.
I'm sorry.
Get your act together, you jerk. Got that?
Sweetie.
Entertain him properly.
Yes, sir.
Let's go.
Let's get going.
Did you remember to bring everything?
I brought the bag Hyun Sook packed herself.
Mother.
Why is she taking so long to deliver her baby this time?
Giving birth to a daughter and a son is different.
I heard the baby is quite big.
Hyun Sook kept the baby inside for too long.
I heard the baby will weigh more than 4kg at birth.
That's right.
I don't even need to see. I bet he looks just like my husband.
Hey, did you know that your father-in-law...
was as tall as the guardian tree of the village?
But Mother, are you sure that it's a baby boy?
This hospital doesn't tell the baby's gender.
So what is your point?
Do you want your sister-in-law to have another daughter?
Do you want her to have two daughters just like you?
- Watch your mouth. - No...
That's not what I meant, Mother.
It's a baby boy this time. I can tell.
His eyes gleamed like bright lights.
His fur was glossy as if someone had put oil all over it.
He was a very handsome tiger.
The tiger jumped under Hyun Sook's skirt.
- He went right under her skirt. - You startled me.
My gosh, the tiger I saw in my dream is still fresh in my mind.
Those brilliant eyes of the tiger.
- Doctor, please help her. - My gosh.
Please save her!
Wake up, Hye Ja.
Hye Ja!
Hye Ja.
- My gosh. No... What's going on? - Hye Ja.
Wake up, Hye Ja.
Please save her. Please.
Oh, dear. Poor thing.
It looked like she was almost due.
What will happen to her?
- Are you with Ms. Park? - Yes?
- Please follow me. - She must be done.
It's over. All right.
What... It's a baby girl?
Yes, you have a beautiful and healthy baby girl. She weighs 4.5kg.
My goodness, she's handsome.
Mother, look at the baby.
She's very healthy.
Hold on.
She looks just like Father in the photo.
Don't you think so?
I'm sorry, Mother.
No. You have nothing to feel sorry about.
Good job.
You did well.
A baby girl?
Mother.
I just heard that lady is dead.
What? My goodness.
That's terrible.
Wait. What about the baby?
Luckily, the doctor could save the baby.
It's a baby boy.
How unfortunate.
How could you leave me?
Honey.
Mom.
A pregnant lady died during labor.
- She was his wife. - She died?
My heart breaks for him.
The baby survived though.
How could he raise a baby without his wife?
Thank you, ma'am.
We appreciate your help.
Thank you.
You did well.
- Raise her well. - Okay.
Ma'am, you were disappointed that it wasn't a boy, right?
No, don't say such a thing.
I heard that daughters will be more precious in the future.
Doctor, what happened to that couple?
You know, the one who passed away.
The body was transferred to the Red Cross Hospital.
They will hold her funeral today.
The baby is still at our hospital. He's right there.
Poor baby.
I feel the same way. It was embolism.
She missed her window.
- Bye. - Bye.
Oh, right. I almost forgot.
Wrap the baby with this.
- Here you go. - Thank you, ma'am.
We needed a blanket for the baby. Thank you.
Hey, baby. Be strong.
Don't let a single wound harm you.
Be a healthy boy.
You will have to spend the years your mother didn't get to.
Live a long and healthy life.
What are you doing here?
Honey, that's the baby.
That's the baby, Won Yong.
I see.
How is he going to raise the baby alone?
Hello. For two? One second please.
- What do I do? - Young Ha. What are you doing?
- Hurry up. Lead on. - Yes, sir.
It's all right. I don't know him. I don't know him at all.
It's foie gras and brioche.
Excuse me.
I saw Hermitage on the menu.
Yes. We have 2007 vintage.
Honey. What do you say?
It's good for light drinking.
I'll have it.
Yes. It'll be served soon.
He ordered French course and over 100 dollar wine.
Light?
He's showing off more than the last time I saw him.
Good job. You're such a pro.
I've never seen any other woman who stays calm...
in front of their ex's new girlfriend.
Have a good time.
Oh, my gosh. Oh, my baby.
Hey. What have you done to my baby?
I'm sorry, ma'am. What do we do now?
What are you doing? Clean it!
Stop. Keep your hands off.
Are you trying to clean this with that dirty dishcloth?
Excuse me. Do you have any idea how much is this?
I'm sorry.
I went all the way to Florence to buy this new baby.
Florence? Florence, Italy?
Apologize now.
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
I don't need an apology. Are you going to compensate?
Of course we should.
Can you tell us how much the purse is?
- 20,000. - 20,000 dollars?
No. 2,000 euro.
2,000 euro.
She seems flustered.
A restaurant of this size...
- should have insurance. - Actually...
only the employees can claim insurance.
She's a part-timer.
You're a part-timer?
Well...
It's fine. Go back to your work.
- Pardon? - You can go back to your work.
What are you talking about? It's not fine.
I want to make them pay for the tour if I could,
but I only asked for the price of the purse because she's poor.
Honey. You know I have a soft spot.
I do. That's why I'm telling you to stop.
What if you get stressed?
If you get insomnia again, I'm going to be worried.
I'll get you a new purse.
I'll get you two.
Really?
Still. If we just let it go,
isn't it bad for her?
Even though she's a part-timer, she has no sense of duty.
I think we should take a chance to teach her some lesson.
I'd rather not get bothered...
than worrying about some part-timer's sense of duty.
How about you, Honey?
Honey. You're such a romantic guy.
You're the best.
Ms. Part-timer?
I said you can go now.
Thank you, sir. You're as generous as...
No. I'll compensate.
I'll pay for it.
Young Ha.
Isn't it too much for you to act proud?
That's not your problem.
Young Ha.
Let me check something before I do that.
Since it's new, do you have the receipt and the guarantee card?
Can you show me?
Are you saying you can't trust me?
Do you even know what this is made of?
It's a mix of baby lamb and python.
Do you even know how much this strap costs?
This is the center of python.
So show me.
Fine.
Poor thing.
It's all wet inside.
I'm sorry.
Here's the card.
I can't find the receipt. Check the serial number.
Give me your name and account number, and I'll transfer the money.
Young Ha. What's wrong with you? Stop acting proud.
I'm not acting proud. I'm being responsible for my mistake.
It's a strong sense of duty.
You have nothing but pride.
This is the problem of the loser's mind.
Ma'am. The money you're going to pay...
only includes the food and tax.
It doesn't include the right to insult me.
Wait.
I believe that food price includes...
a silent promise that you'll provide us the best service.
Doesn't it?
Here.
Give me your phone number. I'll send you my account number.
Send me the picture of the receipt.
When I confirm that it's genuine, I'll send the money.
Young Ha. What's that attitude towards the customers?
You don't need to come anymore.
Lee Gwang Jae.
Why here, of all places?
What a girlfriend he has. "Oh, my gosh."
Oh, my gosh, my foot.
- Hello? - Is this Kim Young Ha?
Mr. Nam. It's me.
I thought I called the wrong number.
What's with your voice? Are you upset?
No. What's up?
If you're not busy this weekend, can we meet up?
Mr. Nam. How about now?
Okay.
Mr. Lee. Long time no see.
Sir. Ma'am. Long time no see.
We went to visit our children because my wife bugged me so much.
You must've had a good time.
Are you satisfied with the food?
Of course. You don't need to ask.
I was going to stay little longer,
but I rushed because I missed your food.
Thank you.
By the way, I don't see your wife.
Actually,
she's rushing here to say hello.
Yes.
Hello, sir. Ma'am.
Mrs. Nam.
My beautiful junior, Soo Hee.
Did you enjoy the food?
Of course. We really enjoyed it.
Thank you for having us even though we didn't make a reservation.
Nonsense!
You're always our VIPs.
Right, Honey?
Of course.
Sit down.
By the way, I met Chairman Nam.
My brother?
He said he's going to establish a branch in the US. He's busy.
Congratulations. You're expanding abroad.
It happened somehow.
What are they talking about?
It's nothing.
He probably heard...
that we're getting more branches.
The US Branch. What does he mean by that?
What's wrong with you?
I told you.
I don't want him getting involved in our business.
If you want to tell me about this expansion again,
you should do that after we get divorced.
It's your brother.
Why don't you trust him?
He knows a lot of people, and that's why we get customers like them.
I don't want to talk about this.
I...
just want to live like this.
We're doing fine right now.
I don't know why you're trying to make things more complicated.
All right. All right.
I heard Gwang Jae is coming. Get him something to eat.
Gosh, she's so stubborn.
Should I go or not?
- Drink. - Thank you.
I thought you didn't like our restaurant because it's too small.
Me?
That's impossible. It couldn't have been me.
You told me that there were more to learn from a French restaurant...
than a back-bone stew restaurant when you refused my offer.
I'm sorry.
I have a bad memory about back-bone stews.
What is it about?
It's nothing, Mr. Nam.
When are you going to stop calling me "mister"?
You were my start-up consultant.
I'd have to keep my respect for you as my teacher.
Once a teacher, always a teacher.
I was your teacher only once.
But don't I look too young to be treated as a teacher all my life?
Don't you want to be called "mister", Mr. Nam?
No, I want to be called something else.
Mentor?
Life senior?
Manager?
Calling you Mr. Nam feels just right.
I'll think of a better one later.
Do you want to start working tomorrow?
I have another part time job on the weekends.
I'll start working sometime next week.
Can't you quit that job?
I got paid in advance.
All right.
See you next week.
Sure. By the way,
how much will I be getting per hour?
How much do you want?
Do you really want pork back-bone stew?
Let's eat here.
I'll get going, Mr. Nam. Bye.
All right. See you next week.
All right.
Pork back-bone stews are always the same.
Let's just eat here.
I don't like it.
It's really delicious here, isn't it?
I didn't expect anything, but it had a rather nice ambiance.
Let's come here again next time.
It must be delicious.
- Let's just eat here. - All right.
Did you see what I'm capable of?
Sure. I get it.
I'll do my best.
Bye.
- Bye. - Bye.
Hey.
- Hello. - Who is that?
She's a new part-timer here.
- Are you leaving now? - Yes.
- Give me that. - Here.
What's wrong with your aunt?
She says that if I want to expand the business...
to the US, I'd have to do it after we get divorced.
Don't worry. She'll give up after a while.
Anyway, where is the other one?
- He'll be here. - If he calls,
tell him that I'm not happy with him.
Hey, let's go!
Goodbye, sir.
Bye.
Good luck, Director Nam.
Call your dad and tell him...
not to get involved with your uncle.
Do you understand?
Yes.
Are you going home?
Gwang Jae is coming.
I need to get some underwear for him.
If you're going to the department store, I can...
(Job Openings, Looking for a Babysitter)
I can't believe it.
Why did I make that mistake?
Tripping on my own legs.
2,000 euros?
That scum!
I...
Sorry, I was talking to myself.
Sure.
I...
(Private Loan Company Boss)
Private loan?
- You're supposed to pay tomorrow. - Sir.
You know it's illegal to call unannounced like this, right?
So just pay my money back.
If you keep threatening me like this,
I'll have to call out for the help of the law.
I'm going to report you!
Just wait. I'll sell my organs if I have to.
Just don't be late.
There are compounding interests, you know.
She never gets discouraged.
What is the problem with you two?
What did I do wrong?
I've never seen a father who demands his daughter for interests.
I didn't tell her to steal her tuition fees...
and lose all that money with a start-up.
In fact, she is a fraud...
who deceived her parents.
Oh, my.
Someone might overhear us and misunderstand.
You're an accomplice for letting her be.
She's been paying you for two years now.
You should just forgive her for the rest.
She's going through so much trouble...
paying 1,500 dollars a month.
No.
She needs to know how scary money can be.
If you let her go, she might cause even more trouble.
She ended it there because I stopped her.
What if she had gotten more private loans?
We would've gotten in trouble as well.
I don't get why she's like that.
I just hope she'd take after her sister.
Where did Kyung Ha go today?
She went on a business trip. She might not come back.
Why does she have so many business trips?
Tell her to come home no matter what.
She stays overnight so often.
She wouldn't do that if she could come home.
Gosh, you're so stubborn.
Here you go.
Well done.
Let's see.
How much did you withdraw?
Well...
Why are you paying so much for a school reunion?
Gosh.
Here.
This is for Mother.
You should make the deposit yourself.
Why do you want me to get it?
That way, you get to see her once in a while.
We live near her.
Gosh.
Tell her to treat me as nicely as I treat her.
I make her side dishes once two days.
Don't you think he's being ridiculous?
Here, it's from the fruit shop.
- All right. - The interest from the fruit shop.
- This is... - Yes?
This is from the woman who lives at the semi-basement.
She wanted to thank you.
By the way,
is her husband better?
Yes, he started working again.
Gosh, that's a relief.
Are you home, ma'am?
I'm home.
- What are you doing? - Hello.
I'm doing nothing in particular.
I'll get going then.
All right.
Look into the beauty parlor for me.
- Sure. - Bye.
Mother, do you still make her go on errands for you?
How can you trust her?
Gosh, look at what she's wearing.
Gosh, that wench.
What about me?
Gosh, I'm so much better than you.
Gosh.
You'd have to face me someday.
Your son must have gone somewhere.
The store is empty.
He must have gone for a business trip.
Why do you ask?
The light on my front door keeps flickering.
Tell him to take a look at it.
Sure. I'll tell him when he gets here.
Hey,
if you chew so much gum, don't you get toothaches?
It's good for digestion.
Do we have a guest?
Check it yourself.
You will find a pleasant guest.
Do they think my son is their slave?
They keep making him work.
Let's go.
Mother. Do you know this?
My son-in-law selected the best herb...
for you.
Hyun Jeong's husband...
said he'll take a good care of your health...
until you turn 150.
Hi, Young Ae.
Hi, Hyun Sook.
She brought herb medicine for me.
I've seen this on home shopping.
Hyun Sook. It contains much better ingredients.
Did you buy clothes too?
Mother. Try this on.
I have more clothes than I could wear until I die.
You didn't have to buy it.
You'll look great for spring, Mother.
It's nice. I saw this...
on the sale kiosk last time.
By the way, is Hyun Jeong's husband opening an oriental medical clinic?
No.
Didn't you just say that?
He's thinking about it.
Oh, do you want to set Kyung Ha on a blind date with oriental doctor?
My son-in-law has a really decent friend.
Call Kyung Ha. I'll tell her.
She's shooting with models right now.
She's so busy. She doesn't have time to think about marriage.
How can you relax?
She's over 30.
Her class dropped in the matchmaking company.
I believe it's okay for my children...
to live single if they're competent.
What did you say?
That's why your daughter...
doesn't even think about getting married.
You want to keep her by your side for good?
Don't worry, Mother.
People get married after 40 nowadays.
Especially someone so beautiful like Kyung Ha.
Young Ae's children got married so early.
If she's not capable of going on a date,
set her on blind dates before she gets any older.
Keep that in mind.
Men nowadays care about women's ability more than their age.
That's only for professionals.
Judge, prosecutor, doctor, teacher.
Kyung Ha is only a mere office worker.
Did you say 40?
No mother-in-law would like a delivery in old age.
Would you be happy if Myung Ha marries an old bride?
Why would Myung Ha marry an old bride?
That's ridiculous.
I'm just giving you an example.
What if Kyung Ha fritters and turns over 35?
People would think her as a divorced single.
Hey. Stop it.
Give me the money for this month.
Yes, Mother.
What about you?
I'll send it to your account.
Don't try to be cheap with the money you give me.
I deserve to receive money from my sons.
Also, try your best to give me a raise.
The cost of living is so expensive,
but my money never goes up.
You're already rich.
That's my money.
That's separate from the money you give me.
What's she talking about?
(Episode 2 will air shortly.)
