(Episode 62)
Soon Young.
Why are you here? What for?
Why are you here?
We have a large group and you weren't there.
Mr. Jo sent you?
Let's go. Let's go to work.
Is the baby sick?
You said last time that someone was sick.
It's none of your business.
Is it her baby?
It's mine. It's my kid, not Soon Young's.
It's not hers?
No, it's mine. Min Su is mine.
What? What did I just hear?
You had a baby?
You're driving me crazy.
Why did you come to my home?
Talk to me. Madam Gu had a baby?
Did you hear about her getting married?
Not at all. She said her niece was married,
but she never said she was.
Okay.
My gosh, I get it now.
I see why Madam Gu quit the cabaret so suddenly.
She bragged about opening her own store...
and becoming self-employed.
It wasn't that. She married a rich man...
and tried to change her life around.
But then she just had a baby and left him.
Now I see it. The baby makes sense.
Ok Book, this is for you.
What's that?
Bok Shil left it for you.
- Bok Shil? - It's meat.
Cook it for breakfast tomorrow, not dinner.
So Jeong Tae can have some.
Cook and eat it with Jeong Tae.
What was all that about?
Why did Bok Shil leave this?
Actually, she came by today.
What?
Did Bok Shil come over today?
- Yes, I called her over. - Mother.
Will you not see her forever?
Even if you object, at least keep her close.
You can't leave her on her own forever.
I'll pretend I don't have a daughter.
No parent can stop thinking about their kids.
Do you think you can pretend she doesn't exist?
She got her first paycheck and bought you...
some thermal underwear.
She even gave me pocket money.
How do you think she feels, sneaking over behind your back?
You and your cooking must be...
what she misses the most right now.
Why are you so cruel?
(Daeguk Construction)
- Kyung Ho. - Bok Shil.
How long were you here for? Were you waiting for me?
Yes. I called your office and...
they said you were out but that you'd come back.
Do you have to go back inside? We can talk here if you're busy.
No, I can call in tomorrow. Let's go.
Okay.
It was nice to see you waiting for me.
I had a good day as well.
You did? How?
I got my first pay.
You did? Congratulations.
And...
- I went home too. - You went home?
Yes. Grandma wanted to see me.
I saw her and Jeong Woo.
Not your mom?
No.
You still don't want to move back?
Later.
When Mom understands and accepts me. I'll wait until then.
You must be upset that you didn't see your mom.
It's okay.
I bought thermal underwear for Mom and Grandma.
And gave Jeong Woo pocket money.
You did? Good for you.
This is for you.
You got me something too?
You didn't have to.
I'll get you something nice next time.
This time I just wanted to show my gratitude.
Don't be disappointed.
Don't say that.
Open it. It's a handkerchief.
A handkerchief?
That's for when you say goodbye.
Really? I didn't know that.
Give it back. I'll get you something else.
It's okay. It's just what they say. Don't believe it.
I like the color.
Thank you, Bok Shil.
I'm sorry that this is all I can give you.
Don't say that.
I'm so grateful that you got me something with your first pay.
I was always on the receiving end.
I sold the radio you got me in Vietnam...
to become a singer.
You didn't even complain about that. I felt so bad then.
You wanted to sing that much and I didn't understand.
I'm sorry too.
This is on me. Eat all you want.
I'll buy dinner.
No. I want to treat you to a meal too.
Eat up.
Okay.
Hye Rin said...
she's interested in you.
Do you know that?
Don't mind her.
How can I not?
She went to your university,
so she's smarter than me and comes from a better family.
Who cares about that?
You're the person I like.
Still, it doesn't feel nice. And I remembered what your mom said.
When she set up your blind date,
she told me not to lurk around you.
Bok Shil.
I know how you feel, but I still get upset.
I just do.
Then you must know how I feel about your CEO.
Mr. Cha? That's different.
I'm one of his singers.
Still, it feels like he's closer to you than I am.
To be honest, it bothers me.
Don't you see that?
I understand.
I think I get it.
But you trust me. I'll trust you too.
Won't that do?
It will.
- We haven't done this in ages. - Right.
Shall we meet tomorrow?
Jeong Mi's having a concert. Shall we go?
Jeong Mi's concert? Okay, let's go.
Okay. I'll get the tickets when I get into work tomorrow.
Okay. I'd wanted to go to her concert for so long.
(CEO's Office)
Mr. Cha, it's your birthday tomorrow.
Why would you remember something like that?
- But still... - Go home.
Okay.
(Storage)
Mr. Cha.
You're leaving late today.
Where are you coming back from?
Home.
I bought presents for my family and gave it to them.
Did you? Do they support you now?
No. I only saw my grandma and brother, not my mom.
I see.
Then you'll have eaten with them.
What? Yes.
You haven't eaten yet?
I was hoping to...
take you out for dinner with me, but I can't anymore.
Go to bed.
Mi Jin, I warmed the tonic. Take it upstairs.
Okay.
It's the last pouch.
Should I even bother buying more? I don't think it's working.
He's had it for months and still there's no news.
I think I can stop taking it.
I can't wait to become a grandpa.
Get some for Mi Jin too this time.
I don't like herbal medicine.
- Sang Pil, you're home. - Yes.
- I'm a bit late. - I see that.
- You can go to your rooms. - Okay.
Oh, what about dinner?
Don't tell me you still haven't eaten.
I ate already.
- Will you take your tonic now? - Yes.
When I told my employees you'd treat them to a meal,
they said you were generous.
You're not.
You always work and say you're too busy.
I can't spare the time until we win this bid.
Treat your employees whenever you want to.
Is it because of Ms. Uhm?
To tell the truth, what Ms. Jung said bothered me,
and it bothers me that you two were talking.
It looked like you knew each other.
I said we don't, we just...
said hello.
Are you sure about that? Did I get the wrong idea?
- Yes. - Okay.
You have no reason to lie.
I'll believe you.
How's Min Su?
What did the doctor say? What was wrong?
He's not a cold, but he had a fever.
I gave him medicine and it went down.
Why does he get sick so often?
What did Jeong Tae say?
He must've asked about Min Su. What did you say?
I said he's my kid. Don't worry.
He's yours?
Did he believe that?
So what if he doesn't? I don't care.
I said you were married, so I could've said he's yours.
I blurted out for some reason that he's mine.
Why was Jeong Tae here?
Was he looking for us?
We had a large group and my CEO sent him.
I was told to leave my address and I did,
and he found us.
Why did you give them our address? Don't you even think?
If you see Jeong Tae again, tell him Min Su's mine.
What will they do if we say he's mine?
Where's the bulgogi from?
- It's from Bok Shil. - Bok Shil?
She was here yesterday.
She got her first pay and bought us a few things.
Then she asked Choon Ja to bring us some meat.
Good for her. She's grown up.
Right, Mom?
Come on, Mom, have some.
You have some.
It's getting harder.
My goodness.
I just don't understand what happened.
I put it in there and it's gone.
Did you buy some?
I did. Why would I lie about that?
What's the matter?
My father-in-law had no appetite, so I bought some meat...
and put it with the salt.
It disappeared.
A stray cat must've taken it.
How would a stray cat open the crock...
and take the meat inside?
Choon Sam, let's have breakfast.
Kyung Ho, breakfast's ready.
What's this smell?
It's nice and sweet. It must be bulgogi.
How come you happen to have meat on the table?
Did you take the meat that he bought?
What are you saying?
Sang Man bought meat and put it in the crock of salt.
It disappeared.
Is that the meat that I bought?
What?
Mr. Kim, are you saying I'm a thief?
No, but you saw me yesterday...
with the meat that I'd bought.
- Didn't she, Choon Ja? - What? Did she?
My gosh. That's why you're asking if this is that meat?
I saw the meat you bought and went and got a chunk myself.
Kyung Ho's been working hard and coming home late,
so I spent some myself.
Mr. Kim.
Stop showing off about being the landlord.
Why do you always take me for a thief?
I really can't stand it.
- My goodness. - Kyung Ho, let's go and eat.
When did I show off about being the landlord?
I just said so because it seems so obvious.
Stop it, Dad. You can always get some more.
Eat up, Kyung Ho.
- Eat. - We shouldn't...
eat someone else's meat, you know.
Do you not trust me either?
I do, I do. Kyung Ho, eat up.
I should just move out of this house and get away from it.
First, he called me a coal thief.
You and Choon Ja worked in cahoots to take half his coal.
We can't say you're entirely blameless.
What did you say?
Nothing. You did very well.
Cook nice things for Kyung Ho more often.
I'm a bit late.
What kept you? Sit down.
The octopus soup is great.
What do you think?
Mom made it especially for you because...
you're working so hard.
It's delicious.
Eat all you can. You need the energy.
Why are you just standing there?
I have to leave and take care of business.
- If you're busy, go ahead. - Okay.
Look after Jeong Hoon as best you can.
You're his mother-in-law.
I will. Jeong Hoon, do you want silky fowl?
With octopus and abalone?
Yes, please.
Silky fowl is black.
I want crab stew. It's spring.
I'm getting so many orders.
Eat.
(Cha Sang Pil, CEO)
Come in.
You asked to see me?
- Hello. - Hi.
Compose a theme tune for a radio drama.
A radio drama. Did you get a contract?
A 20-year-old from the countryside meets an orphaned man,
they fall in love, and succeed with a bakery.
- It has to be light and fun. - Okay.
Who will sing it?
We could put it in Hye Rin's album.
Write the song first.
We'll decide who sings it later, so keep it a secret for now.
Yes, sir.
- What did you talk about? - Nothing much.
- See you later. - Okay.
Hello.
- Se Ra. - What?
Do you want this? Have a look.
Why would you give this to her?
I ordered three new dresses.
What do you think? It'll suit you nicely.
Why are you doing this?
You're Mr. Han's cousin. I should get on your good side.
We didn't get along at first, but I hope we can get over that.
I don't need that dress.
You can have it.
Put in a good word about me to Mr. Han, okay?
(Oh Jeong Hoon, Planning Director)
Come in.
- Mr. Oh. - Hey.
I met my senior who used to work at Haemyung.
Did you? What did he say?
I asked and...
the part in their proposal that's similar to ours...
wasn't any of the employees' ideas.
The CEO told them what to put in.
They were told off for not thinking of it first,
then they revised their proposal...
and handed it to the Ministry of Construction.
If that's so, my seeing Mr. Cha in Mr. Hwang's office...
and Mr. Cha's employee sending Haemyung a letter.
We should take that seriously.
Okay.
I'll look into it, so turn a blind eye for now.
I'll talk to you if I need something.
Okay.
Hello?
How come you picked up?
See me when you're free.
Jeong Tae.
We connected. I was about to come and see you.
What for?
Did you eat a lot of meat?
That wasn't from Bok Shil. It was from me.
- It was from you? - Yes.
You talked about spring appetites, so I lied so you could eat.
Did you eat a lot? Was it good?
Why did you do that?
Because I like you. You always pretend not to know.
- Choon Ja. - What?
That's enough.
We're no longer kids and you should get married too.
Why do this to someone like me?
What about you?
Stop it already.
Must I tell you what kind of man I am?
I don't care what you are...
and what happened to you in the past.
I just like you. Don't you get that?
Stop it and wake up.
Jeong Tae.
You're here already.
Hi. Sit down.
- Is it okay if we eat later? - Sure.
I wanted to see you too.
- Do you have something to say? - You go first.
You don't look too good.
Is it about Soon Young?
Jeong Hoon, I told you already.
You're both married. Why do you even care?
To tell the truth,
Soon Young...
works at my wife's boutique.
What?
What did you just say?
Is that true?
Your wife and Soon Young?
How? Was is by coincidence?
This is just crazy.
Why do we have to keep meeting up?
I don't feel comfortable at all working with her aunt.
How did she end up working with your wife?
My wife doesn't know about her.
Does she know?
Does she know her boss is your wife?
Yes.
Jeong Tae. I'm sorry, but can you talk to her for me?
I told her to quit, but she won't listen.
It's only natural that she'd feel offended.
I know I have no right to tell her to quit.
But I'm doing this for her, not for myself.
The longer she works there,
the more she'll suffer.
Okay.
Jeong Hoon.
There's...
a baby...
Never mind.
Why won't you finish the sentence?
It's nothing. Don't bother.
I'll talk to Soon Young for you.
And tell her you're concerned for her.
Sorry to ask you to do this when I'm sure it's tough for you.
What did you want to say?
Oh. Well...
Your father-in-law and Mr. Jo from my cabaret.
They're as close as brothers. Did you know that?
No, I didn't.
Mr. Hwang said he doesn't know Mr. Jo personally.
That he's just a contractor.
Really?
That's not what I heard.
Actually,
something doesn't feel quite right.
I've been wondering that recently.
Okay. Don't worry about that.
I'll sort it out.
Are you sure?
Mr. Jo's a thug. Why do you want to work for him?
I'll deal with it. Let's go and eat.
You need to get back.
Hello, it's Jini Boutique.
Aunt, why did you call?
Did Min Su get worse?
No, he's fine.
Is he really okay?
Yes. You left for work so reluctantly,
so I decided to call...
to put you at ease.
Thanks, Aunt.
How is he? You didn't leave him alone, did you?
He's with me, so don't worry.
He drank his formula and medicine and now he's asleep.
The fever's gone,
so don't worry about him and work.
Okay, I'll come home early. Bye.
Why did you hang up in a hurry?
It's okay.
Is something wrong at home?
You left in a rush after a call yesterday.
Answer her questions. You're so frustrating.
Ms. Uhm, do you know that what Ms. Jung said is right?
I'm your boss and CEO.
Don't you think I should know a little about your life?
I'll get back to work.
I'm doing this to get along. What's wrong with her?
Hello, Mr. Kim.
Hi. What's that?
I opened a bank account.
With the money Bok Shil gave me.
Bok Shil gave you pocket money?
Did she visit you at home?
My mother-in-law called her over.
She brought presents she'd bought with her first pay.
You must be proud of her.
She thought of her family first...
when she got her first check.
Mom, I'll get the dishes from the estate agent.
- See you around. - Stay safe.
Okay.
You won't have to worry about her anymore.
I felt upset seeing how she had to come and go like that.
I don't know what to do.
Be positive about it.
She's paving her own future and career.
She bought a whole load of presents,
but must've still felt guilty.
She asked Choon Ja to bring us a chunk of meat.
I see.
What? Choon Ja brought you meat?
Yes. She brought us each a present,
so I don't get why she sent meat all of a sudden.
Why that thieving cat...
A thieving cat? What do you mean?
Pardon? It's nothing.
A huge thieving cat lives with us and...
I don't believe this. Gosh.
Choon Ja. Choon Ja.
Why are you home already?
I'm here to catch a thieving cat.
What are you talking about?
In our house...
lives a thieving cat that's just about this big.
This little cat...
took the meat in our crock and took it to our neighbor.
Talk to me. What should we do?
How did you find out?
My goodness.
Why did you do it? Why did you give it to them?
It was because...
Grandpa's medicine gave...
Bok Shil's grandma diarrhea and she got so weak.
That's why.
I didn't think about that.
You're better than me, Choon Ja.
My gosh.
What is it now?
- I didn't steal your meat. - That's right.
Mal Soon bought the meat with her own money.
You called her a thief and that upset her so much,
she got indigestion.
My goodness.
What are you doing when we have to open soon?
Mal Soon, you shouldn't be like that.
I have nowhere to go and...
you confiscated all my money.
How can you kick me out after that?
We have to get on stage soon. Stop drinking.
Leave me alone.
Ae Shim, let's have some more.
That's so nice.
This is the cure to babysitting all day.
Madam Gu.
You're the mom of a young baby.
You can't drink before we even open.
Gosh.
Madam Gu...
has a kid?
What kid? How can I have a kid at my age?
I wish I could have a kid.
You said you had a baby. Was that a lie?
Be quiet.
I never got married or have a kid.
No, wait. I got married and have a kid.
- Oh dear... - Poor you.
- Get up. - Are you all...
Oh dear.
What's going on here even before we open?
Clean up and get ready.
- Okay, okay. - Let's go.
I'll sort things out over here.
Will you just do your job?
Sir, can't you just fire him?
Se Ra, come with me.
Where to? Will it take a while?
He didn't even say where we're going.
Go on. Don't make him wait.
Hello, can I speak to Mr. Han Kyung Ho?
He's out? I'm Oh Bok Shil.
Tell him that something came up and I can't see him today.
Please give him the message.
Hey.
Where's she going?
Mr. Cha's taking her somewhere.
Where did they go?
Mr. Chae, will Mr. Han be coming back?
I don't know. Don't you think the time's a bit awkward for that?
Someone called to cancel plans with him.
- Leave him a note. - I should, right?
(Oh Bok Shil cancelled plans)
Why did you bring me here?
Let's have dinner.
What about what I asked for?
Sure. Come with me.
Wait here for a bit.
Mr. Han.
- You and Se Ra are cousins? - What?
Are you here to see her?
She left with Mr. Cha.
Shall we have dinner? Who knows when Se Ra will return?
No thanks.
You can go. I'll wait here for Bok Shil.
Okay.
You seem to have plans, so I'll leave you to it.
Try it. I cooked it myself.
It's delicious. Much better than what you bought me last time.
You're amazing. How come you cook too?
How about a drink?
Why did you bring me here and cook for me too?
It's my birthday today.
Gosh, is it really?
I spent my life thinking that birthdays weren't special.
I didn't see the point in remembering the date.
But I've been feeling lonely.
Now, there's someone I want to spend my birthday with.
What?
(Swan Inn)
We should go inside.
Mr. Cha.
Stop there!
Come on.
(Through the Waves)
I'm sorry. They have only one room.
- Can't we just leave? - There's a curfew.
- Is it really your aunt's baby? - I feel like a fool for being here.
I saw you and Mr. Cha leave an inn together early in the morning.
- Can I work here? - You want to come back?
If it's your brother's baby?
Let's go somewhere and talk in earnest.
- Let's talk. - What's this about?
Choon Ja.
You were never a woman to me.
Oh Se Ra. You're a woman to me.
