(Episode 11)
(Iron Plate Dakgalbi)
Let's see.
Are you going to stay up all night again?
Honey.
Why did you come here when it's so smelly?
What is that?
Tae Il said he's coming home early.
Things must have gone better than he expected.
He said he would bring guests with him.
They want to see how we choose the ingredients,
do quality control, and see our distribution system.
I knew that would happen. Your brother is so competent.
He has connections everywhere.
He said that he would come with the investors,
so he wanted me to make the menu better.
This is good.
This is why I need good quality salt.
Honey, the salt is excellent.
It's not salty. It's almost sweet.
Do you want to taste it?
All right.
You should go upstairs and get some rest. It smells here.
I like the smell of the kitchen, but you might not...
like it.
Of course.
That's it.
I'm sick of working late.
If you are, quit your job, and get married.
Marry that rich guy. Okay?
Ms. Kim, when is the meeting between the families?
What meeting?
Wait, so there's no talk about the future?
If he's head over heels for you, why is he taking things slow?
He didn't ask to meet your parents.
My gosh, things are aren't moving at all.
I thought the date was premised upon a possibility of marriage.
That's true.
Should I get things going then?
Ms. Kim, but that guy sounds a bit iffy.
Ma'am, could he be doing the same thing to Ms. Kim?
Don't you remember how Ji Yeon was conned by a guy?
That's right. Lately, some rich guys...
test the waters with a few women and end up dumping them.
"Test the waters"?
In a nut shell, they'd lure women with their wealth...
and dump them without a proper goodbye after toying with her.
I heard some guys habitually pull this stunt.
They are taking advantage of women's materialistic snobbery.
Yoon Jung, that was uncalled for.
I wasn't talking about you, per se.
Mom.
Where are you, honey? You weren't at home.
Who told you to go to my mom's house?
Why would you worry about him? He's not a kid.
He's a father who's over 40 now.
Why would he be starving? That old woman.
Tell him if I catch him this time, he's done for.
Mom, please get up, and have some.
I bought black sesame and pine nut porridge from a good restaurant.
I'm not sick.
Why would I eat the porridge?
Why don't you eat it?
Mother, you're too mean.
What? I'm mean?
Me?
Unbelievable. Jong Yong came to visit us from the Philippines.
Your husband who beat him up with a golf club is mean.
He didn't beat up Jong Yong. He just scared his brother.
If Won Yong tried to scare him one more time,
Won Yong might end up killing him.
- Honey. - Listen.
When we were young, you used that stick to hit us.
You said that it was to teach us a lesson.
I learned that from you. You can't blame me for it.
Honey, you should go home.
She hasn't eaten anything.
Then don't give her food.
Give that to your mother.
All right. You haven't been to your mother's house for a while.
Your mother likes black sesame and pine nut porridge.
Have you lost your mind? What are you doing?
Just go. Go.
Then Mother,
I'll put this in the kitchen. Have this later.
This black sesame and pine nut porridge was very expensive.
Gosh, this is frustrating.
Where did he go? How can he not call us?
She didn't eat anything, did she?
No, she didn't.
She didn't go dancing either.
I feel for her. She wouldn't feel like eating.
Her youngest son hasn't called her for days.
When Jong Yong comes back, give us a call, please.
Sure.
My gosh, they're so rich.
It's not so hard to cook a bowl of porridge.
Why would she buy this? Seriously. Why?
I can't believe her.
She's so lazy.
It's not that I'm lazy.
I bought it because that restaurant is famous for its porridge.
My gosh, don't take it personally.
I was just thinking out loud. Don't let it hurt your feelings.
You know that even the presidents get criticized...
when he's not present. Don't you?
My goodness.
She gets on my nerves every time I see her.
How can I get rid of her?
This is so annoying.
I bet he's starving somewhere.
Is that what you think?
You're the one who's starving.
I bet he's having fried chicken with beer.
Or it could be sweet and sour pork with jjajangmyeon.
You still know nothing about your brother.
When he has no money,
he will starve himself. He's not resourceful at all.
I'm sure he has a few dollars for his meal.
What?
Hey, that day,
I checked his shabby clothes inside out.
He didn't have a cent on him.
He was completely penniless.
He won't die even if he skips meals for a few days.
It'd be good for him. He'll lose weight.
He said he wanted to be an actor.
Seriously. You're heartless.
Since you're up, give me your bankbook and seal.
What?
Why do you want my stuff?
After seeing things unfold, your youngest will...
extort that little money you have.
I can't let that happen, so give them to me.
Where is it?
Is it here?
- There it is. - Hey!
I will hold this for the time being.
Give it back.
Who said that giving him money is equivalent...
- to pouring water in a sieve? - My goodness.
It was you, Mom.
I'll keep this safe for you.
Won Yong, please.
If you want it back, come to me.
I'll give it to you if you have your meal.
My gosh. No, no.
Dear me. He's so cruel.
Did you just find out that I was cruel?
Living as the oldest of a poor family made me cruel.
So it wasn't a coincidence?
That you came to the restaurant I was working at?
Of course not. I went through so many hoops to find that out.
Then who was that girl with the handbag?
I met her on the plane that day for the first time.
I don't even know her name.
Just to find you,
I roamed around this neighborhood like crazy.
Why did you do that?
Things were over when we ended it.
Did you not read the note I wrote you?
I wrote everything on that note.
My gosh, I can't believe you.
I almost lost my mind because I missed you so much.
Wherever I went,
I thought about you.
You popped into my heart first whenever I saw a beautiful view.
It was the same...
when I ate weird or good food.
I couldn't run away from you wherever I went.
Oh, right. I want to see your grandmother.
Let's go visit her, so we can tell her we're dating again.
No, she's not in a good mood now.
- Why is that? - Let's visit her some other time.
Then...
can I kiss you?
Do you think I'm that easy?
Yes.
Hey, is that Young Ha?
Oh, no. It's my mom. You should go.
Why? Can't I say hello?
Next time. Things aren't going well in my family.
Mom, I'm going.
You should go.
See you tomorrow at the restaurant.
I needed to tell you something.
I'm not just a part-timer.
- Mom. - Who is he?
We work together.
Don't meet useless men like that.
You should meet someone like Mr. Nam.
You don't know if he's good or not.
I can tell that from his hair.
It just screams, "I'm a punk."
Don't do anything rash.
You might ruin your sister's marriage.
I understand, Mother.
I should not get in the way of the princess' marriage.
You can't discriminate me like that.
When I become rich in the future, I won't give you anything.
You can't become rich if you meet men like that.
Get a hold of yourself.
What does his family do?
They had a restaurant business, but it failed.
Gosh, it's the perfect combination.
But he's really handsome.
There are so many women who ruined their lives...
because they only cared about how good-looking their men are,
including a few in our family.
I'm talking about your aunt and me.
Mom.
Which artists do you like?
Artists? Well...
What about you?
I like the post impressionists...
like Gauguin, Gogh, Cezanne, and so on.
I know.
That's...
the man that cut his nose.
Gogh, right?
- His nose? - Yes.
I don't know why artists are so crazy.
But that's not what's important.
How do you like this?
Did you buy a new watch?
It's cool.
I was going to buy another one,
but my old man didn't let me, so I had to buy this.
Do you want to go to my vacation home this weekend?
My mom told me it's really beautiful now that the flowers have blossomed.
Are you going to introduce me to your parents?
Why should I?
Why do you meet me, Seung Min?
You're pretty, and I like you.
What do you think about visiting my house...
instead of going out this weekend?
Me? To your house? Why?
What do you mean? Aren't we going to get married?
Marriage?
If you don't want to come to my house,
I'll visit your house this weekend. What do you think?
My mom will be abroad this weekend.
What about your father?
He's scary.
He'll kill me if I bring a woman.
Why do you date me then?
- Me? - Yes, you.
Why do you see me?
Do you date me because I'm interested in your money?
Is that funny to you?
If you treat me like the other women you had,
you'll go to jail.
We didn't even sleep together.
You run away every time important moments come.
I didn't do anything wrong to go to jail.
You can be charged for contempt, you stupid.
You've insulted me so much that...
it amounts to the charge of murder, get it?
What?
I'll just tell you one more thing before I go.
I dated you only because...
I've dated many intelligent people,
but not stupid ones like you.
I was just curious.
Hey!
But stupid people are no fun.
Don't appear in front of me from now on.
And...
Gogh cut his ear, not his nose.
Do you understand, you stupid?
(Yong Equipment)
What is he doing there all alone?
Yong!
Why are you making me so upset?
I'm not having a great time either, you fool.
What are you doing?
Yong, when did you get here?
Weren't you sleeping inside?
Are you drunk?
Who's the man sleeping in there?
It must be my uncle.
Just ignore him. That's what he asked me to do.
Why are you doing this? Why are you being so formal?
I'm sorry.
But don't worry. I won't go to the climbing place anymore.
I wouldn't have gone there if I had known you'd be there.
All right. Don't go there again.
I'm trying my best to work it out with him, so don't interrupt me.
I won't.
Do you know how rich he is?
His watch costs millions of dollars.
He owns about three buildings in Gangnam.
They cost a hundred million, I mean, several hundred million dollars.
He wants our families to meet soon.
His parents are dying to see me.
I didn't know you had drinking habits.
Stop being like this.
Take me home.
You can go by yourself.
Hey.
I'll call Myung Ha for you.
I know I'm bad.
I'll be punished for this.
Yong. Yong. Yong.
Kim Kyung Ha, don't make me the bad guy here.
I beg you.
I beg you, Kyung Ha. Please!
(Call Records)
Gosh, my mom called so many times.
If she's so worried,
she should've told me the passcode to her safe.
(Myung Sun)
Why did she...
Won Yong.
I wanted to be a soccer player.
I was actually quite good at it.
I liked players like Lee Hoe Taik, Lee Se Yeon,
Hwang Jae Man, and Kim Jin Kuk.
Mom didn't allow me to, saying I'll be poor.
She said that I'll get hungry easily if I play soccer.
You want to be an actor?
Yes.
There would be...
only a few people who have never dreamed of...
becoming a celebrity or an athlete.
Most people...
dream of it once.
It's been my dream since I was young.
Are you even good at acting?
As far as I remember,
you've never even acted in school plays.
If you try something without talent, it would be...
more like escaping from the reality with an excuse.
A man with a family...
does not have the qualifications to have dreams.
You're someone's husband,
and someone's father.
You don't have the right to dream.
Don't try to live for free.
Be responsible for your family.
Don't try to get money from Mom who's gotten so old now.
I'll help you find a job if you want to do construction work.
Think it over while eating a bowl of haejangguk.
Mo Mong?
Myung Ha, my friend.
What happened in this early morning?
What's so urgent?
Are you sick?
No.
Then what?
- I don't have water. - What?
They turn on warm water only until 7am in the dormitory.
I can't wake up that early.
It's my first class today.
Myung Ha, let's go to the public bath.
(Public Bath)
It's fortunate that I don't have class right now.
I would've been in trouble if I had a morning class.
How can she be so self-centered?
Didn't she even read the dormitory manual?
She has to try to fit in if she's going to live with other people.
Even if I'm her buddy, how can she let me wait...
in front of the female bath in the morning?
This is too much.
My friends told me to drink sikhye after taking a bath.
- Myung Ha? - Sorry?
Sikhye?
You drink that when you go to a sauna.
You drink banana milk when you go to the public bath.
We're here.
Myung Ha, thank you.
Goodbye.
See you later at school.
She wants me to see her at school again?
Okay.
What am I doing? This isn't right.
Don't look back.
Uncle Hyo Dong.
Why does dad stay up all night these days?
Be quiet. Let him get some sleep.
Follow me.
Uncle Hyo Dong, Dad doesn't have to work like that anymore, does he?
He'll probably live like that for the rest of his life.
I'm not sure, but he'll probably die in that room.
Uncle Hyo Dong.
Imagine your dad being 100 and working like that.
"Hyo Dong."
"Try this new menu I developed."
"It's so good that you wouldn't know what happened around you."
- I think he'll really be like that. - Isn't that right?
I wanted to tell Dad some good news today.
What news?
I finally made up with Young Ha.
Good job.
Did she faint after finding out that you're the CEO's son?
I haven't told her that yet.
I'll tell her later today.
If you haven't, just don't tell her.
- Why not? - Tell her when I'm there.
I want to see her faint from surprise.
I'll do that.
- I'll tell her when you're there. - Okay.
That would be fun, right?
Aren't you going to take the call?
What? Okay, go inside.
Hey, I failed to keep the promise, didn't I?
I'm sorry. I forgot.
I'll definitely pay you back.
I'll pay you back right away.
Of course. I know.
Come to work early.
I'm sorry.
The early bird gets the worm.
The early bird gets caught and eaten early these days.
- Did Jong Yong come home? - Yes?
No. Grandma's really worried.
- He didn't come home? - No.
That's a nice car. Is that your car?
Yes, isn't it nice?
Totally. It suits you well.
Do you want to go on a ride?
- No, that's okay. - It's okay.
It feels different when you start the engine.
What's happening?
- It really does. - It's okay.
Hi, Young Ha.
- Good morning, sir. - Hi. I'll go in first.
Whose car is this?
Oh, this? This is mine.
I thought your family was broke?
My dad is broke.
My style is still the same.
Style, my foot. You sound so stupid.
Can't I drive a car when I'm broke?
Young Ha, I'll drive you back and forth every day.
You're still so immature.
You must think that you're still a rich man's son.
You're a part-timer who gets paid 7 dollars and 53 cents per hour.
You need to get a grasp of reality.
Come back to your senses, and follow me.
Wait.
Gosh.
It's already clean enough now.
Do we have to clean this?
I don't mean that I'm not going to do it.
Make it clean enough, so that you can eat rice that's dropped here.
Do you understand?
Why would you drop rice on the bathroom floor?
Why would you pick that up and eat it?
Make sure it's clean, so that the customers won't get disgusted...
after they go to the bathroom and return to their meal.
Begin!
Okay, I understand.
Here.
How could you behave so rudely to the manager?
I'm in lost for words.
I always behaved like that to him.
How am I supposed to behave towards him?
Okay.
Why are there so many products to clean the bathroom?
Let's do our best...
to every customer who comes here today.
Let's do our best in the afternoon!
- Let's do our best. - Let's do our best.
I don't see Gwang Jae.
Oh, he's cleaning the bathroom.
You made him clean the bathroom again?
Yes.
- Oh, my. - Help me.
- Oh, my. - Oh, my. What's wrong with him?
Gwang Jae, what's wrong?
I drank something in the bathroom.
Isn't this a side effect of detergent?
That must be it.
Put him on my back.
- Hurry. - Put him on my back.
