(Episode 67)
What did Tae Il say?
He must be surprised.
He was very cold.
He doesn't seem to care about our blood ties.
He wants me...
to call him Mr. Nam.
Really?
He said he passed the time when he needed his father.
He suffered alone for a long time.
A few words wouldn't make him feel better and let him accept me.
We were thoughtless to expect it.
Sometimes he's like a sheet of ice.
He probably got that from his mother.
What are you going to do now?
What can I do when he doesn't want it?
I don't think he would change so easily.
I felt sympathy rather than disappointment.
He must've spent such a long time alone...
to be so cold.
I'm sorry. You've probably plucked up your courage.
He pushed me away, but not you.
Don't try to fight with him.
Try hard until you melt his heart.
I will help you too.
I...
don't know...
why everything has to be so hard.
When I was being chased,
someone told me,
"Some people have..."
"longer winter than others according to their fate."
You must be born with such fate.
I should endure it then.
After long winter,
you will have spring more beautiful than...
anyone else's.
I promise your spring will come.
Until then,
hold onto me tight.
Okay?
Seo Hee.
Young Ha.
That can't be.
(Young and Gwang's Sandwich)
Gosh.
(Emergency Room)
I told you. Coming here was unnecessary.
It's better to be sure in the first place.
What if you come find me later and say that...
you're seriously injured? What will I do then?
Then I'll have to be responsible for that.
Hold up. You didn't insist on coming here because you're worried.
You brought me here to get rid of any future troubles, right?
How do you feel?
It's all good because you didn't get hurt.
And I'm glad that I got to check that you're okay.
Sure. I understand.
Thanks to you, I learned a great life lesson.
I'm going. Bye.
Don't roam around the neighborhood you don't live in.
By the way, don't just play. Try to learn how to read.
Hey! Hyung Woo!
Hyung Woo! Where are you going again? Hyung Woo!
Young Ha.
What? Are we closing already?
What is it? Did we run out of ingredients?
Did we have a good day today?
Hey, what happened to your foot? What happened here?
- Get your hands off me. - Hold on a second.
How did you get hurt?
It's a small cut from a shard.
Gosh, you should've been more careful.
Why are you so clumsy?
Do you have the right to say that to me?
- Where have you been all this time? - What?
I'm sorry.
Something came up.
I'm really sorry.
Why don't you just slap me? Slap me. Just do it.
Don't try to wriggle your way out of this one.
I'm sorry.
Do you think running a business is a joke?
If you're not going to take it seriously, don't even start.
Pull out of this business.
How could you say that? Don't you think that's a bit harsh?
Listen.
I saw a kid who got lost out of nowhere.
I was trying to find his house.
More than half of 10 food trucks go under less than 1 year.
Lasting three years with this is a miracle.
If you weren't going to take it seriously, I wouldn't have started.
I got it. That's enough.
No. That wasn't enough.
You said you were going to beat Nam Tae Il.
With what? How?
With just your feelings? Impossible.
With this attitude, 100 years won't be enough to beat him.
Never in a million years.
I got it. Seriously, stop it.
You must be frustrated after reading articles and watching TV ads...
about the success of Nam Tae Il's Sung Won every day.
He used to run errands for your dad.
But now, his asset is worth 100 million dollars?
And yet, you're moving from an alley to another with a rented food truck.
Business is more than just the appearance.
Or your feeling for that matter.
If you're going to find houses for children, go there and volunteer.
Why would you run a business?
Tae Il is tenacious.
He has a sense of value that he must succeed.
He's determined to be the best in the industry.
If you're trying to hype me up and motivate,
you've done it. This is enough.
Let me remind since you seem to have forgotten.
My goal is to be the best in Korea.
Whether it's a sandwich, pork back-bone stew,
or stir-fried chicken,
I'm going to be the best owner and chef in Korea.
I have a goal too.
To pay off my dad's debts.
Sorry to break it to you, but with this attitude, you won't be able to.
You think you can pay off your debt with only words?
Come on.
You didn't have to add on to make me feel pathetic.
Gosh.
Gosh. Goodness, what is it this time?
But still. You shouldn't have jumped into the road.
What was I supposed to do? The kid began to run without looking around.
You should have held him tightly, so he didn't run off.
Right. That's my fault too.
But you did find the lost kid's home. You did a good deed.
You know what?
I didn't even get a thank-you from that old man.
I'm sure he was thrown off because he was shocked.
As if.
He insisted on going to the ER and getting the medical certificate.
He confirmed it that I wasn't injured.
He told me not to try anything funny later on.
That old man is unbelievable.
Do you think he might've abused the kid?
But he was so affectionate to his grandson.
But anyway,
I promised myself that I wouldn't be a selfish old man.
By the way, look at your foot. What should we do?
I got lucky that it wasn't my hand.
If so, I wouldn't have been able to cook.
It will heal after a day or two, as long as I'm careful with it.
We have to go grocery shopping and clean up. That's the problem.
Leave everything to me.
You don't even know how to pick out good ingredients.
- I'll visit the shop this time. - I know how.
Just leave it to me, boss.
- Should we count how much we made? - Should we?
Gosh, I see some 50-dollar bills.
Hey, we did so well.
Seriously?
Let me repeat. This is nowhere close to my dream.
I wish we could run our food truck in a prime location.
- Right? - Yes.
All right. Get ready, and go visit your grandmother.
Must we go today?
Mong Mong isn't feeling too well.
- Is it serious? - It hurts just a bit.
If it's not serious, you ought to go visit her.
Okay, Mother.
Myung Ha, let's go.
Hey, hey. Are you guys going to go in that?
Yes, is there a problem?
You have to wear the traditional clothing.
Well, my gosh. I guess you can just go wearing that.
- We'll be back, Mom. - Hold on, hold on.
Didn't you buy anything from the trip for your grandmother?
We have nothing.
You didn't buy her any presents?
Mom, it was too hot, and we were trying to get here quickly.
We couldn't buy anything.
You should've bought something from the in-flight duty free.
Mong Mong kept feeling nauseous.
I'm sorry.
Mom, Mom.
Myung Ha and his wife are coming to say hi.
- What? Really? - My gosh.
My grandson returned from his honeymoon trip?
Yes, they're back. I saw him on the street. They're buying a cake.
Goodness, goodness. Oh, my. What should I do?
- Gosh. - Why? What is it?
Hold on. What should I serve her? She's my new niece-in-law.
- We have the watermelon. - You finished it.
- Grandmother. - Yes?
- Gosh. - Oh, my. My grandson is here.
Come on in. Come in quickly. Gosh.
- Come inside. Hello. - Grandmother.
- Oh, my. - Mother.
- Grandmother. - Hi.
- I'm here too. - Hello, there.
I thought...
you wouldn't be back for a few more days. When did you get back?
It was very hot there.
She was having a hard time there, so she came back in a hurry.
Grandmother, have some cakes.
What? Okay.
Sure, sure.
Give her a bow first, Mong Mong.
What? That's not necessary. It's hot today.
Seeing you is enough.
Mother. That's not right.
Mong Mong. Give her a bow.
Okay.
You too, Myung Ha.
- Yes. - Yes.
- No. - No.
Goodness.
You only bow once, Mong Mong.
People bow twice in drama.
What?
You bow twice for a funeral.
You only bow once to a living person, honey.
Okay.
You even have a baby. It must've been difficult.
You should sit down. Sit down.
Yes.
Okay.
I had a hard time because it was very hot.
I see.
Mother.
They suddenly got a seat on the plane and returned,
so they couldn't get you anything.
It's fine.
It's fine as long as they're back sound. No need for gifts.
Of course. Seeing them is the gift.
- Yes. - Don't you agree, Hyun Sook?
I will slowly teach them, Mother.
Yes.
Myung Ha was sneezing...
just a few days ago,
and now he's married.
You're becoming a father.
I must have lived long.
Gosh.
Are you having guests? There are so many shoes.
Oh, my. The newlywed couple is here.
- Hello. - Hello.
The bride looks more beautiful than before.
So, Mrs. Park. Did you get anything nice from your granddaughter-in-law?
What? No.
Only one cake? Seriously?
That's what I mean.
Come on. They probably prepared an envelope with money.
- They came empty hands. - Did you...
go to a farm to get a watermelon? What's taking you so long?
Mother. It's coming.
That's weird, isn't it, Myung Sun?
I can't believe Mong Mong's parents.
It was a honeymoon. Despite other people...
What do you call that thing?
Is it mooncake?
They should've sent Chinese bread at least.
They're back from Italy. What Chinese bread?
I'm just saying.
I was humiliated.
Then you should've prepared it in advance.
You think Mother and Myung Sun wouldn't notice it?
It's upsetting.
They've got enough money for the bow.
If it's that humiliating, you got a lot of gold.
You can share that with her.
It's theirs. Not mine.
Buy some meat, and invite her for dinner. That will do it.
Who dines at home when it's so hot?
Gosh.
You keep frowning when I'm working.
Give me some money then.
Why do you keep asking for money?
Do you think I'm an ATM or something?
Do you think I'm a labor machine?
- How much? - A lot.
Also, give me more allowance starting this month.
Including Mong Mong's.
Here. Take as much as you want.
Unbelievable.
You have no money.
Mother. I'm here.
Hello, Young Ae. Mother went to the dance class.
Really?
Oh, what's this cake for?
Do you have a guest?
It's Myung Ha's wife's ibaji.
Is Myung Ha back from honeymoon?
Yes.
What else did she bring?
They must've sent a few cows since they're rich.
Or Beijing duck?
They've got a cake for her.
It's from a bakery nearby.
Come on. Tell me the truth.
I'm telling you that is all.
Hyun Sook complains all the time in front of us,
but she didn't say anything to her daughter-in-law.
She didn't even wear hanbok when she came to see Mother.
She wore jeans.
Oh, my goodness.
Myung Sun. Is that true?
Hey, the new groom.
Hello, Aunt Young Ae.
I heard that you're back, so I came to see you.
Where's your mom?
I don't know.
Were you sleeping?
Yes. I'm still jet lagged.
Where's my cute niece-in-law?
She's also sleeping.
Is she?
Oh, my goodness.
It must be the baby. She keeps sleeping.
She's always tired.
Niece-in-law.
Mong Mong. Will you get up for a second?
Myung Ha.
As you know, I'm not...
old fashioned at all.
You can say I'm more modernized...
and understanding than others.
Even for your wedding,
everyone was against it because she's a foreigner,
but I persuaded everyone.
Did you know that?
Did you?
But, Myung Ha,
this isn't right.
I heard you went to see Grandmother in jeans.
I understand...
that you brought a cake from a bakery for Grandmother.
Mong Mong might not have known because she's a foreigner.
But don't you think you've gone too far...
by wearing jeans?
Korea has a beautiful tradition called ibaji.
What's that?
That is...
when the bride comes to her in-law's house for the first time,
she brings food for adults...
Young Ae. They don't know that.
Hi, Hyun Sook.
They don't know that.
That's why I should teach them.
Aren't people getting rid of it now?
We should get rid of those empty formalities and vanity.
Myung Ha. Put this in the kitchen.
Yes.
Hyun Sook. I think you're mistaken.
I didn't mean...
to bring so much that we can't even finish.
I'm talking about their clothes and basic manners...
when they go meet Grandmother who's the eldest in the household.
Well, you should teach your children.
I'll teach my own son and daughter-in-law.
I did a good job on them.
People still say...
my children aren't like children these days.
You know...
how much my in-laws compliment them.
Okay. I will teach them too, okay?
Don't be upset, and remember what I say.
When I see you,
you're very loose with your children.
Me?
When was I ever loose with them?
Even now.
You should know when to compliment and when to punish them.
You're doing this only because she didn't bring ibaji.
Yes.
That's a bad tradition, Young Ae.
I don't want my children to do that.
You should distinguish...
a beautiful tradition from a bad one.
Is bringing a drink and some fruit...
for Mother a bad tradition?
Okay. I'm sorry. It was my mistake. Stop it now.
Honestly, you're two-faced. Did you know that?
What?
When Kyung Ha was marrying Hyun Bin,
you ordered expensive foods for the traditional wedding,
then you canceled it.
I'm begging you. Please stop.
It upsets me too.
I'm saying this for your own good.
Don't take it wrong.
If you leave them like this...
from the start,
they'll take advantage of you.
Aunt Young Ae, we'll behave well.
So stop talking to my mom.
I'm so sorry.
Gosh. You think you are an adult because you're married at 23?
Should you humiliate me like this?
Get out of my sight!
I'm feeling bad now because you said that.
I'm a bit late tonight.
Take a seat here.
- Do you have to do this now? - Yes.
You are too cold-hearted.
What?
I know I'm not kind.
Do you think it was easy for Bum Joon...
to bring it up to you?
"So this is what happened."
"So you are my son and I'm your father."
Do you think it was easy for him to say that to you?
To be precise, he's a victim too.
He was as shocked as you were.
But he bravely went to talk to you about that.
How could you react to him like that?
What? "I don't need a father."
"Call me as Mr. Nam"?
So what?
What did I do wrong?
I was just being honest...
with him.
Did you really have to do that?
So what you are saying is...
that I should have been touched and cried out,
"Oh, gosh. Father!"
"Why did you come and see me now?"
And I had to kneel down.
Do you mean that?
- Don't be sarcastic. - I'm sorry,
but I can't relate to that.
All I learned is to return...
as much as I received.
Everyone taught me like that.
Are you saying that I should be nice to him...
when he's wrong?
The father that I remember...
The mother that I remember...
are all cold and twisted.
My parents were unkind as far as I remember.
What would I have learned...
from my parents who were so cold?
I'm just doing as I learned.
Why does everyone hate me?
Why?
Let's stop.
It's all my fault.
I don't like your attitude now too.
Okay.
I said let's stop.
You brought me up like a monster.
Don't ask me why I became a monster.
Did you ever hug me...
and look me in the eyes?
Tell me, everyone.
Tell me!
Fine.
Young Ha...
Kim Young Ha...
Young Ha used to smile at me.
Why doesn't she smile at me now?
Why?
You are bored, right?
I'm sorry about this.
This neighborhood is scary at night.
No. I'm jealous of you. This is all fascinating.
- Is this fun? - Yes.
Can you try it again?
No thanks. My stomach will be fat.
I should have called Gwang Jae.
You'll have this feeling as you make this. Trust your guts.
It's hard because everyone has different tastes.
Somebody says it's sweet and somebody says it's not that sweet.
- Kyung Ha, you are here too. - Hi, come in.
Yong, take a seat.
Okay.
Gwang Jae said Young Ha will be scared to be here alone.
Well. Thanks for coming.
Please give me honest feedback on this.
No thanks.
It's good. You should taste it too.
I'm sick of this because I've been smelling this the whole day.
Come on. Well-known restaurants' owners smell their food...
for years.
Try it.
My dad must have done the same.
Smile as you eat.
Young Ha, you must be successful.
So we can make a bronze memorial tablet to stick here.
Oh, yes. Let's do something like that.
This is "Goethe's House".
This is "Marcus's House". Something like that, right?
Yes. This is "Kim Young Ha's House".
No. This is "The House of Lee Gwang Jae and Kim Young Ha".
You're the best.
Kyung Ha. It will come true as we say it.
- Words have the magic. - Yes.
Young Ha. We should say...
"We'll be the richest people." How does it sound?
Gosh.
Look at her. She likes it.
Come on.
One day,
the four of us will all get separated.
We will miss this place, won't we?
I feel like that's what will happen. Maybe it will happen.
It shouldn't happen.
It could happen.
After 10 years,
where are we going to be? What will we be doing?
What's for sure is that...
we will miss each other as we live.
Why didn't I...
think that Soo Hee and I had a child? Why didn't I?
If I wasn't that foolish,
If I wasn't...
- Here. - You're done buying already?
I just had to go pick up stuff from the store Young Ha told me.
It's rather fun at the market.
The most expensive ones must be the best ones.
What are you talking about?
- Aren't these tomatoes for juice? - They are.
You can buy ugly tomatoes then.
It's much cheaper.
- Really? - What do you know?
- Sir. - Yes.
I'll take three boxes.
- Three boxes? - Yes.
- Please give me a good price. - Okay.
Seo Hee.
Mr. Nam.
You didn't come to work. What are you doing here?
- Did you change your job? - No, it's not like that...
It's Saturday and Young Ha was hurt suddenly.
So I'm shopping for her.
Young Ha was hurt? Where?
It's none of your business.
As far as I remember, you wanted to get away from Young Ha.
How serious is Young Ha?
Are you worried?
Then go check yourself.
Seo Hee.
