(Episode 9)
There's nothing to wear.
I buy at least 1 or 2 every year,
but I still have nothing to wear.
Clothes age too, Mom. That's why.
That must be why.
I can't wear anything I kept in the closet...
that cost quite a lot.
Mom. What about that one?
That looks good.
It's a good material too. Try this on.
I can't do that.
What now?
It's too expensive. I can't buy this.
You'll get a discount. Come on, just buy it.
I have a conscience, you know. I can't buy a 1,300 dollar-jacket.
It's not even a winter coat.
Buy a good jacket this time.
Dad owns his own business. He told you to buy a jacket too.
Even if he's paying for the jacket,
I'm scared to buy clothes that cost over 1,000 dollars.
I need to go back to work. You should buy it now.
Then give me your card, and go back to work.
I have to sign the receipt.
Should I buy this with a six-month installment plan?
Make it three-month.
I know the manager there. It's embarrassing.
I got it.
Thank you, ma'am. Goodbye.
- Bye. - Bye.
She looks cool. She's tall too.
She's no ordinary shopper, right?
If she's no ordinary shopper, then is she like a spy? Gosh, Mom.
I meant that she looks like a movie star.
I think that lady spent at least 15,000 dollars today.
Excuse me, what does that lady do?
That lady?
She's a VIP customer who often visits our shop.
Don't you work at the main branch?
Yes.
Kyung Ha, look. I think she's still shopping.
Hello.
- Look. She's buying more. - Mom, come on.
- Stop it. - Okay.
She must be really rich.
Or she could be a shopaholic.
- What? - There are more than you'd think.
I wish I could be a shopaholic too.
Hello?
I'll head over there now.
Okay.
Hey, so the exchange student is here?
Yes, say hi.
Hello. It's nice to meet you.
My name is Wang Mo Mong.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Thank you for your help in advance, Myung Ha.
Wait. Didn't you tell me that the exchange student was a guy?
The professor was mistaken.
Gender doesn't matter here.
He will help you a lot.
Ask him if there's anything you don't know.
- Okay? - Okay. Thank you.
Bye.
Can you get another female student to help her?
Or someone from International Affair Committee?
Hey, it will take only a month for her to get settled in.
Help her out for a month.
You're the only one who can help her, Mr. Gentleman.
- Please help her out. - But...
I need to get back to work. Sorry.
- Yes. Okay. - Buddy, aren't you coming?
Okay, okay. I'll send it soon.
Buddy, what's your name?
It's Kim Myung Ha. Kim is my surname. Myung Ha is my name.
My name is Wang Mo Mong.
I hope we can get along well.
Let's check your schedule first.
Why?
Do you need to ask? I have to show you where lecture rooms are.
We have a lot to do.
Slow down.
First, take my photo.
Please.
Here it goes.
1, 2, 3.
1 more photo. 1 more.
I'm done. That's enough.
Thank you.
What are you doing?
A lot of my friends are waiting for me.
That's why I upload my photos.
Let's check your schedule now.
I need a cell phone.
You have one there.
My phone has the mobile service from China.
It's so expensive.
I need a cell phone with an LTE network.
My gosh. All right.
You cooked a new pot of rice in a short time.
This seasoned cabbage was pretty good.
Give some to Jong Yong.
That's great.
I was worried because kimchi was completely fermented.
Your youngest son is the luckiest.
You even grilled the dried corvina.
It's because this is what he likes.
No, no. It's heavy. Leave it to me.
- My gosh, what do I do? - All right.
How should I bring this up to her?
It's neither my father's memorial day nor Won Yong's birthday.
What is the passcode?
- The entrance is narrow. - I know.
Hey.
Eat up.
I told you I already ate.
Even if you did, have another meal.
She took out all the side dishes...
she has been saving just to feed you.
Did I hit you too hard?
I'm sorry about that, Jong Yong.
How could you be so strong?
I have quite a strong grip.
Okay.
- Hey, slow down. - Okay.
Gi Ha is doing well, right?
- Is he studying hard? - Yes.
Is your business going well?
Yes.
It must be hard to make a living in that hot country.
Myung Sun is doing well too, right?
I can't eat when you ask all these questions.
What a shame. Your cooking skills have deteriorated.
The stew doesn't taste the same either.
This is what I'm talking about. That's delicious.
Hey, did you have a fight with Myung Sun again?
Did she hit you again?
No.
Seriously? Let me see.
Let me check if you have bruises like last time.
- Let me see. - Come on, stop it.
She doesn't hit me anymore. It was just one time.
Just one time? Stop trying to fool me.
If I find out that she hit you again,
I'm going to show her...
what a good beating is. I mean it.
How could she abuse her own husband whenever she wants to?
Does she still think that...
you two are in elementary school like when you were kids?
Come on, Mom. I can't eat because of you.
I'm done.
Okay. I got it.
I won't say anything. Come on, eat some more.
Eat up.
Eat a lot.
I wonder why he's visiting me out of the blue.
Jong Yong must have come for a pressing matter.
What brings him here?
He said he's just visiting.
That explains why he didn't bring anything with him.
You know that he doesn't like...
to carry things around.
I see.
- Hey, Bok Soon. - Yes?
If you run into Won Yong's family in the neighborhood...
You don't want me to tell them Jong Yong is here, right?
Yes.
I catch onto things too, you know. Don't worry.
Okay. I'm just worried that if Won Yong finds out,
they might have an argument like last time.
All right. It seems like you keep a lot of secrets.
What's so bad about telling him about Jong Yong?
Live a bit longer, and see.
Every child has his own story.
I'll keep your secret.
But promise me that...
you will take better care of the safe, okay?
Hey, he said he wasn't trying to do anything.
He touched it once because he was bored.
Buddy, can you call my number?
- Why? - I need to test if it's working.
I'm sure it's working.
Hello. This is Mo Mong.
Hello?
Who is this?
This is Kim Myung Ha.
Oh, my buddy, Myung Ha. Hi.
Who does she think she is?
She's not in elementary school.
Father.
Gami came this far solely on the CEO's assets...
with not one outside investment.
By assets,
I mean the efforts he put into his restaurant.
But a foreign business of this size...
is a dangerous adventure for Gami.
If he knew,
he would've never signed it.
You don't know him.
You have no idea how big his complex is.
He wants to succeed to prove his wife.
He wants to prove himself to your aunt.
Let me tell you once again, Tae Il.
There's no possibility of going wrong.
Partners want a story,
and we have a story for them.
What story?
A touching love story...
of a young single daddy chef with nothing...
and a beautiful wealthy woman, Soo Hee.
That's going to be our sales point.
You know CEO Lee feels inferior to Soo Hee.
He has ambitions too.
You really think he signed it with no idea?
You should stay quiet if you have no idea.
Aunt Soo Hee wants a quiet life.
Did you know...
she's suffering from insomnia and depression?
And you're selling a story?
Do you really think that's for her?
Your aunt is depressed...
because she can't live the life she wants.
When Lee Gye Dong succeeds and becomes a global businessman,
your aunt...
will be happy too. Don't you get it? Come on.
Why do you think...
Soo Hee goes shopping every day?
It's because she's unhappy.
Anyway, I'm going to go over this with him.
I can't trust your words only.
Fine.
Let's go.
Don't be surprised when you check.
Get ready for the business trip.
Also, approve the expenses for my living expenses.
You're spending too much on flight.
What do you mean it's too much?
You think Gami is a conglomerate corporation?
Why do you have to get on the first class every time?
Do you always have to stay in the finest hotel room?
Yes. Yes, I have to. Why?
That's the lifestyle I'm used to.
Same goes for your aunt.
Don't get started on why we live like this...
when we live like this.
Gosh. You're so cheap for a man.
Who do you take after?
I'm not sure.
I'm always curious about that too.
What?
Look.
Hey.
What's wrong with him?
Bye.
Like I said before, I'm not someone who looks back.
I don't play push and pull either.
So stop lingering,
and be loyal to your new girlfriend.
I don't have a new girlfriend to be loyal to.
You're all I have.
Hey, Gwang Jae.
You didn't go to work?
I'm not working anymore.
Why not? Young Ha won't take you back?
Women don't say yes so easily.
Gwang Jae.
According to Freud's Psychology of Love...
Do you even know who Freud is?
What? Psychology of Love?
Isn't he Freud? Anyways.
Ignore the woman you like on purpose.
And be nice to someone you're not interested in at all.
Act sweet to that person.
And hurt Young Ha's pride.
Rouse Young Ha's jealousy.
Oh, really?
Sir. Why don't you go trim your hair?
Who would listen to you when you never had a girlfriend before?
Where are you going?
To have fun.
There are so many girls who like me.
By the way, where's Mom?
I'm not sure. Probably the department store?
Really?
Maybe I should go shopping too.
Let's break up.
What?
Let's end it.
Why?
Let's just end it.
I should've just told Dad...
and lent her 30,000 dollars.
No. Then she would've said something nasty with that temper.
Fine, Kim Young Ha. I get it.
It's never going to be me, isn't it?
Fine.
Hold on.
Mom.
Hey.
Where are you going?
Why didn't you take me with you if you were going shopping?
Do you need anything? I'll go with you.
- Again? - I can go again.
Are you sure?
Let's go then.
- Okay. - Let's go in my car.
Okay.
- You're back. - Hey.
I'm sorry, but could you take everything in the trunk upstairs?
Yes, ma'am.
- Thank you. - Sure.
- Let's go. - Hop in, Mom.
Your dad is working hard like an ant.
His wife and son are working hard...
to spend all the money he earns.
Life is fair, isn't it?
This is Uyuni Desert.
People say this is the end of the world.
You can't tell where the sky is and where the ground is.
I think of the woman in this disorderly ocean of salt.
The woman I lost for acting like a fool.
Why didn't I know?
I was already her prisoner.
I can't say I love her nor I like her.
The woman who means beyond all the words.
It's hard...
because I miss her.
I miss you, Kim Young Ha.
I miss you so much.
Right. Young Ha.
That's the person you are, but I've forgotten.
I can't stand how pathetic I am...
for going through all that to find you.
Sir.
Why isn't the new guy here?
I don't know. I guess it wasn't fun for him anymore.
He does as he feels like.
I know.
Take care of what he's been doing.
Start with the kitchen.
Yes, sir.
That's right. Soybean paste.
Let's try putting soybean paste.
Can you give me some soybean paste?
Goodness.
You there.
What were you doing down there?
What were you looking at?
I'm sorry.
Come here.
Not everyone can come in here.
Didn't you know that?
I'm sorry.
It seems like...
you came here for a reason. What is it?
I was curious whether or not it had a special ingredient in it.
Why? Do you want to find out?
To be honest, I have a friend...
whose pork backbone stew restaurant failed.
He wants to start over, so I wanted to find out the secret method.
So you want to steal the secret method...
to help your friend?
I'm not going to steal anything.
I just wanted to know what ingredients you use and how much.
Are you close to him?
Yes, he's kind and nice.
So I feel sorry for him.
It's nice of you to think of your friend like that.
In that case, I'll teach you...
the secret method.
Thank you.
Come closer.
- The secret method... - Yes?
does not exist.
Tell him that there's no such thing.
There must be something special that made it possible...
for you to succeed.
My secret is that I cook with the best ingredients...
and put in my best effort.
If you prepare fresh ingredients like soybean paste, salt, meat,
radish leaves, green onion, and garlic,
and try your best when cooking.
the customers who left will surely come back to your restaurant.
- Thank you. - Sure.
You know Tae Il...
I mean, you're close to Director Nam, right?
He's a teacher that I like...
and respect very much.
Of course. He's great.
He's great as a man too.
Isn't he?
He is.
You are not supposed to be in here.
I'm sorry.
She's a nice girl.
Hey, go to the public bath, and have a bath.
You look like you've been living in the mountains.
Fashion.
Stop talking about fashion,
and go wash yourself.
Your feet smell. Gosh.
They sell underwear at the bath, right?
Go buy one, and get changed.
- Gosh. - Gosh.
Let's go!
Gosh, that was close.
What should I do? What...
(A-1 Building Construction Site)
Gosh, we've done so much.
There seems to be a problem over there.
What should we do then?
There.
Hello.
Did you have lunch?
The publicity regarding earthquake resistant design has worked.
We've only built the basic structures,
but there are people coming to see the building already.
It's all thanks to you.
No, it's not.
It's not big, and it's not near the station,
but there's an elementary school nearby.
It must fit the needs of married women who are in their 30s.
It must have stability and quality.
The villa will be focused on these.
So you need to find interior designs that...
look pricey at a glance.
- Do you understand? - Yes, sir.
That's why I changed some of the light samples.
I'll bring them to your office later.
You can have Seo Hee bring them. You're busy.
All right.
These designs are preferred...
by the younger generation,
and I think we can afford them at a 5 to 10 percent lower price.
Good. But don't push it.
Yong.
You know that I trust you, right?
Sorry?
You're a good business partner to me.
But I don't want things...
to get complicated because of other things.
That's how I truly feel.
Don't forget what I said.
Yes, sir.
It won't...
happen.
- Enjoy your meal. - Thanks.
They have the best short rib soup.
Have some more.
Thank you.
Here. Eat up.
Mom, can you give me some money?
What?
I thought your business was going well. Why do you need money?
Please. There's a reason.
- Just give me 20,000 dollars. - 2 dollars?
Don't pretend like you didn't hear what I said.
Just give me 20,000 dollars.
Don't even mention the word "money" to me.
Your brother said that he won't ever see me again...
if I give you anything.
Please. You have that much here, right?
I wouldn't give it to you even if I had.
I can't.
Gosh. Gosh.
- What's this? Gosh. - Please. Give me the money. Hurry.
- Mom, are you here? - You scum.
That's Won Yong.
My goodness.
Tell him that I'm not here.
- What? - I'm not here, okay?
- Oh, my. - Gosh.
