Oh Se Ra.
Oh Bok Shil.
Why are you Oh Bok Shil?
Mr. Cha, are you drunk already?
You've been acting weird today.
Did something upset you?
Se Ra.
You asked me...
who I live with.
In the Korean War...
I lost both my parents.
So...
I wandered about on my own.
Then I moved in with a distant relative.
I tried...
so very hard to earn their acceptance and become family.
But...
the harder I tried to become part of the family,
the lonelier I felt.
I was always alone.
A loner.
I was always a loner.
So I became determined.
To earn their acknowledgement.
As a member of their family...
and as a capable businessman.
I worked and tried so hard to get there,
but without even trying...
someone else managed to obtain everything I ever wanted.
Who is that?
Did I tell you that...
you put me at ease?
I guess that's why I keep telling you about myself.
I'm not afraid to show my true self to you.
I never had...
anyone like that at home.
Why do you of all people...
have to be Oh Bok Shil?
(Daeguk Construction)
- Do you work here? - Yes.
I came here to see someone.
I hoped to see you again...
and we met by chance.
Take care, then.
Wait.
Shall we have tea?
Didn't you say you're here to see someone?
I can see that person later.
I want to buy you tea.
Let's say you did.
Then tell me which team you're in.
I hate being in debt. Give me a chance to repay you.
I don't need to.
If not me, someone else would've helped you that day.
Goodbye.
Hey.
I didn't even get his name.
At least now I know he works here.
Who are you?
I'm here to see the CEO.
Mr. Hwang's not in.
I think he went home.
What business do you have with him?
Are you sure he went home?
Even if he went out briefly,
considering the time, I don't think he'll return to the office.
Who are you that you ignore my questions...
and just say what you want?
If you see Mr. Hwang, tell him that Hye Rin was here.
Hye Rin?
Will he know if I say just that? What's your surname?
He knows me as Hye Rin.
Doesn't she have parents?
Why did she just give a name and no family name?
My goodness.
You're very drunk, sir.
You don't have to walk me back.
I'm taking you back to get...
some fresh air and to sober up.
Something must've upset you today.
Do you think?
You seemed a bit lonely.
(Lucky Entertainment)
We're here.
Go on inside.
Have you sobered up?
Oh, I almost forgot.
I left some bread in the office. Take it.
I bought it for you.
(Lucky Entertainment)
You're very late.
Yes, Aunt. Goodnight.
What's this smell. Did you drink?
Yes, I did, a bit.
Not just a bit.
How much did you drink that made you reek?
Sorry.
You were in the study until now?
Yes. I'm going upstairs now. Goodnight.
Work is great and all,
but don't let Mi Jin fall asleep alone every night.
I like him then I don't.
Why is Sang Pil acting out of character?
You had a lot to drink.
Yes, a bit.
Do you have anything to say to me?
Pardon? What do you mean?
Nothing.
It's fine if you don't.
- For the spirits. - For the spirits.
Choon Ja, have some wine.
Okay.
Mal Soon, you have some too.
Here you go.
Who are you?
You're the guy who didn't pay for the noodles.
What are you doing there?
What's going on?
Why are you coming in here when you didn't pay us either?
Who are you?
My gosh.
Father.
- What? - "Father"?
"Father"?
How are you?
Who's he, Dad?
Is he my grandpa?
Yes. Say hello.
Are you Choon Ja?
When did you grow up?
You didn't send a word that you'd visit.
It's my daughter's memorial day.
It's wrong for a parent to mourn a child,
so I spent some time waiting outside the gate.
We can catch up later.
I'm tired and need to go inside to rest.
You'd told us that your father-in-law was still alive,
but this is the first time we met.
- He looks very grand. - He does.
What's he doing here?
- Jeong Tae. - What?
The food's good.
Do you feel better now?
Yes. I had a horrible few days.
- Thanks for the food. - Sure.
Where's the medicine? I'll throw it away later.
I got rid of it already.
I had such a terrible time because of it.
Mom, the man who gave us that medicine to give Grandma...
was Choon Ja's grandpa.
What do you mean?
The man who didn't pay for the noodles is Choon Ja's grandpa.
How do you know that?
I saw him peer into Choon Ja's yard and followed him in.
That's when I heard.
That man was Mr. Kim's father-in-law?
How could someone like that be Choon Ja's grandfather?
Happy birthday, Choon Ja.
Thanks, Dad.
I haven't had seaweed soup in a while and it's delicious.
Your mom never got to cook this for you.
You make a tasty batch for me. That's good enough.
A dad can do his very best,
but a girl still needs a mom.
I said I'm fine.
Why is Grandpa here?
I only saw him a few times as a kid and not since then,
so I wouldn't recognize him if I met him in public.
His soup is getting cold. Why won't he come in?
- Thank you, sir. - Thank you.
Let me explain this medicine.
People with achy arms and legs,
people with stomach aches or heart problems,
and even people with high blood pressure who had a stroke.
They all took this and were cured of their ailments.
I imported this from America myself.
Even if you want to buy this,
it's too rare and you can't get it easily.
I'm not sure we deserve such a valuable product.
I want to give it to you for free,
but medicine you didn't pay for doesn't work.
That is why I asked you to pay just half the price.
My goodness. You weren't giving it to us for free?
He said that it won't work if it's for free.
But still, something from America must be terribly expensive.
Can't you give a better discount.
We live with your son-in-law and we're close and all that.
Exactly.
We all need to look after each other.
You can pay just half of half the price.
Half of half the price?
That's as good as free.
When else would we ever get to try American medicine?
He said it cures all ailments.
Mal Soon, pay for mine too.
Why would I pay for your medicine?
Father, why won't you come in for breakfast?
Your father-in-law gave us a great deal...
on his American medicine.
We got them for a good price.
- What? Medicine? - Yes.
Don't take that. Give that all back.
- But... - Sang Man.
You're so mean.
Father.
You must never sell this, okay?
Oh dear.
My goodness.
He doesn't want to share because it's American.
- You shouldn't be so mean! - Exactly.
That wasn't fair. Let's go inside.
- Yes, let's. - Forget it.
- My gosh. - I could've done with that.
Kyung Ho, the four of us are getting together today,
so don't go anywhere else after work.
Why? What day is it today?
It's my birthday.
You're right, it is. We should get together, then.
Why is there no soup?
I got up too late to make any, so just eat your rice.
Sang Pil, why did you drink so much last night?
You drank? You don't drink alcohol much.
Don't even ask. I thought he'd fallen into a vat of it.
He smelled so bad.
Sorry, Aunt.
If you knew he came in drunk, you could've made some soup.
Is it my job to cook soup?
Be nice.
Sang Pil, is something wrong?
Why did you start to drink?
It's nothing. I just met someone for drinks, that's all.
- I'll watch myself from now on. - It's fine.
A working man has to drink every now and then.
Jeong Hoon, do you know that Haemyung Construction's CEO...
is putting everything on the line to win the bid to build Hoseo Dam?
Yes, I do.
They're wasting their efforts.
They can never beat your proposal.
If we win this bid,
we will have a stronger foothold within the industry.
You will have...
no problem running the company on your own.
You're going to put Jeong Hoon in charge of the company?
I should sooner or later.
So I can concentrate on working for the association.
What about you, Sang Pil?
Can you make Lucky the best in the industry within the year?
Yes.
Will you all just stop it?
Must you talk about work at the breakfast table?
Was that too much? Let's eat.
Okay.
How did the fitting go?
Very well. My clothes are experimental and extreme.
Everyone was shocked.
Your designs are very unique.
- You did well, Ms. Uhm. - Thank you.
The show's not far off. Get working on the fitted garments.
I will.
Where's the Hoseo Dam proposal?
You'll have it within the day.
We have no idea what Haemyung will propose.
Be very careful.
Won't they ask for a lower price?
They should.
A lower price alone won't win them the bid,
but if they include a special technology,
we can't guarantee our victory.
We should consider asking for a lower price.
Okay.
Oh, I met Bok Shil yesterday.
Did you?
I tried to talk her out of singing, but she wouldn't listen.
I don't think she will.
I can't tell you what to do,
but I decided to understand and support her.
Did you?
Did you talk to Mr. Cha about her?
No, I didn't because I don't think I have to.
Does he not yet know you're related to Bok Shil?
He hasn't said anything about it, so I guess he doesn't.
Okay.
He'll put Jeong Hoon in charge of Daeguk?
Come in.
What's this?
You had a lot to drink last night. It's for your hangover.
To thank you for the bread.
- We're at work. What are you doing? - What?
Have you forgotten where we are?
I brought it specially for him.
He's not at all like he was yesterday.
Jin Kyu, find out how many albums the top five labels sold this year.
Okay.
I went to see Daeguk Construction's Mr. Hwang yesterday.
You ignore my situation and all my requests.
I went to tell Mr. Hwang.
And did you?
Unfortunately, he was out and I couldn't.
I'll try again some other day.
Do what she wants.
Then what about Se Ra?
I guess he's scared of Mr. Hwang.
He should've done as I asked long ago.
Who's backing her?
Why can't Mr. Cha control her?
I don't know. Who is this Mr. Hwang?
What does he have to do with Hye Rin?
What's that?
Mr. Cha drank a lot with me last night.
I brought him hangover soup and got told off.
Mr. Cha drank alcohol? With you?
I just sat there. He did the drinking.
Why is he like that around you?
What do you mean?
I haven't seen Mr. Cha drink that many times...
or go out with him to drink.
He acts differently around you.
You said that he told you personal stuff last time.
I have a feeling you're special to him.
- Bok Shil. - Hi.
What's this?
Did you cook bean sprout soup?
It wasn't for me.
Then who was it for?
- You don't need to know. - You're such a brat.
I had seaweed soup for breakfast today.
I see.
You won't ask why I had seaweed soup?
It's my birthday, you witch.
That's right. Sorry.
Forget it.
The four of us should get together tonight.
We should celebrate my birthday.
Okay.
I told Kyung Ho this morning.
Bring Jeong Tae with you, okay?
See you.
Where are you going?
I'll tell you later.
I'll crush them all today.
You fraud.
What'll you do about this?
You said I'd be on the cover...
and you printed these instead?
These. You said these were free shots.
Do you know how embarrassed I was?
Calm down.
My dad was so upset.
If this ruins my chances to marry, will you take the blame?
I'll sue you for this.
Don't take me lightly!
Choon Ja. There's a huge fuss.
About what?
About where I found such a great model.
The phone's ringing...
Is that true?
We got a huge response.
You have no idea how things work,
but even famous models...
all started out with shoots like this.
You must be right. My friend's trying to be a singer...
and she sings at a cabaret.
That's exactly it.
Let's take some real photos now.
Now let's see.
Come over and sit here.
Shall we pose for the camera?
That's it, now smile.
This is embarrassing.
Once more.
Sexier now.
Yes, like that. Once more, good.
With a piercing gaze.
Have some fruit.
You can't steal these from the kitchen.
What if Mr. Jo finds out?
I didn't steal it. Jeong Tae got it for us.
I did. You should be hungry so I brought you a snack.
- See? - You're so thoughtful.
A stint on stage is really exhausting.
Ae Shim, have some.
Get that away from me.
I eat so much trying to make customers buy more.
- She'd be sick of this. - Everyone.
What are you doing? Who said you could eat that?
Mr. Jo.
What? Did you give it to them?
Yes. They get hungry around this time.
Fine. But in return, make good for that snack.
- Yes, sir. - Sure.
Mr. Jo, I missed a day at work,
but I brought in customers, didn't I?
I don't take my work for granted.
You do if you skip work when you want.
If your creditors ever come here again,
it's over, okay?
Leave us your address, just in case.
You should. We keep addresses of everyone else...
Why do you want to know mine? I'll be here every day.
You don't have a home address?
Who doesn't have a home address?
You live with your niece.
Is that why you're reluctant to give out your address?
Be quiet. I came here to take a break.
My goodness.
- What's up with her? - Have some of this.
Why are you here? You don't sing tonight.
I came for you. Do you get off soon?
Yes. What's that?
It's Choon Ja's birthday. We should get together.
For Choon Ja on her birthday. Cheers.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Happy birthday, Choon Ja.
Thanks, Kyung Ho. You too, Bok Shil.
Jeong Tae, why won't you congratulate me?
Don't drink too much. I won't care if you get a nosebleed.
No. I'll drink myself silly today.
- Bok Shil, cheers. - Cheers.
How did your mom's memorial ceremony go?
Choon Ja.
Forget it.
Don't feel sorry for me.
I never saw my mom's face,
so I don't miss her at all.
You don't have a mom and we don't have a dad.
That's why when kids teased us for not having...
a mom or dad, we beat them up together.
We did.
To be honest, I almost never think of my mom.
When I saw her dad, my grandpa, I felt all strange and awkward.
Your grandpa? He's here?
He came last night.
Was it for the ceremony?
I guess so.
I last saw him when I was a kid, so it feels weird.
Oh, right, guess what?
I took more photos today.
What? For a magazine?
Have you lost your mind?
What's wrong with that?
I found out that...
famous models all started out with shoots like that.
This is just insane.
Why did you do that? Your dad would get upset if he found out.
- Would he? - You brat.
I got talked into it. Oh, whatever.
Enough about that. Hand over my presents.
Here. You said you wanted flowers.
When did I say I wanted you to get them?
I got you a book of poems.
Thanks a lot, Kyung Ho.
I'll keep it safe, with the wrapping and all.
Jeong Tae?
Did you come empty-handed?
I said I wanted flowers.
You're too old to want presents.
He had no time to get anything.
He gets off work late.
- Let's go. - Watch your step.
- Thank you. - Hey.
- Thank you. - My goodness.
(Daepo Mageolli)
Kyung Ho, you take Bok Shil back.
I'll go home with Jeong Tae.
- I can go on my own. - I'll take you back.
- Jeong Tae, see you. - Sure.
Bye, Bok Shil.
Bye. Take good care of Choon Ja.
See you.
Goodbye.
Jeong Tae, when will you get me a present?
Let's go somewhere the day after tomorrow.
Where? Where will we go?
Will you buy me flowers?
Let's go, it's late.
Jeong Tae, wait for me.
Bok Shil.
Why won't you say anything?
I feel bad for you and everything.
(Lucky Entertainment)
I understand your situation.
You're just getting started.
You shouldn't get into trouble or cause scandals.
Kyung Ho.
That's what Mr. Cha wants from you,
and you want to do as he says.
I understand the situation, so I'll do as you wish.
Even if we can't meet as often, I'll understand.
Thank you.
And I'm sorry.
Bok Shil.
Do you know the relationship between Jeong Hoon and Mr. Cha?
What do you mean? What relationship?
Your sister-in-law and Mr. Cha are distant relatives.
- They are? - Yes.
Jeong Hoon and Mr. Cha live in the same house.
No way.
That's why Jeong Hoon came to see me.
He came over yesterday.
I told him. Maybe that's why.
Why didn't he say he knew Mr. Cha?
He only told me to quit and move back home.
That was mean of him.
Why didn't he mention Mr. Cha?
That's because...
Jeong Hoon wants you to live an ordinary life, not as a singer.
That's why he didn't bring up his ties with Mr. Cha.
Even if he can't understand,
I hope you don't just hate him.
Okay, I won't think much of it.
It's not like anyone in my family understood and supported me.
You're going to the association office?
He has to since he got elected.
Right. Your dad and I will go over...
and introduce ourselves as the new leaders.
Don't say anything silly while you're there.
Act like the wife of a chief should.
What did I do?
Try to speak and act with elegance.
I will. You worry about everything.
Jeong Hoon, are you preparing to bid to build Hoseo Dam?
Yes. The proposal will be ready tomorrow.
Okay. I won an election and now...
we should win the bid too.
I'm home.
You're late.
Why haven't you been reporting on your business?
I was going to visit you tomorrow.
Okay, then. You can all go to your rooms now.
- Goodnight. - Goodnight.
- Goodnight. - Sleep well.
Let's go.
You never get a break from work.
I have one last meeting with the team about the fashion show.
Can you come and correct the mistakes if there are any...
and make me look good?
It's my first show and I'm anxious.
I'll see if I'm free.
Thanks, Jeong Hoon.
I'll bring your tonic.
I'm home.
Min Su looks happy.
He just had his formula.
Did you pay off your debt?
Yes, I did.
Do you think I'd waste the money...
you got as an advance?
Two of Jeong Hoon's siblings...
work at the cabaret now and it's such a bother.
Can't you just quit?
You and I need to work to live.
I can't quit over that.
They can quit.
Don't tell them about me or Min Su.
Don't let it slip.
I won't. They asked for my address and I refused to give it to them.
Don't worry about me.
Ms. Uhm, when did you finish all these?
I came in early this morning.
You're great. I'm impressed.
You're great at your job.
You're quick and very skilled.
- Shall we have lunch together? - What?
You got me in a good mood.
Tell me what you want to eat. I'll buy you anything.
How is it?
You said you'd eat anything so I brought you here.
It's delicious.
Ms. Uhm, shall we become friends?
- Pardon? - I don't have many friends.
We drifted apart since I got married.
People say I'm picky,
but you don't have any issues with me...
and you're not impolite either.
The more I get to know you, the more I like you.
Thanks for thinking highly of me.
And for paying me so much money in advance.
It's because I trust you, Ms. Uhm.
I hope we can work together for a long time.
And discuss things like friends do. How about that?
Thanks for the meal.
You go ahead. I have to meet someone.
Okay.
Oh, and tell Ms. Jung to go to the bank.
Bye.
This is the bidding proposal for Hoseo Dam.
Okay, well done.
I'm meeting Congressman Oh. I'll read the proposal later.
Sure. I'm going out to see Mi Jin.
- Okay, go ahead. - Sure.
What is it, Mr. Chae?
Sir.
I forgot to tell you something.
Someone called Hye Rin came to see you two days ago.
Hye Rin was here?
Yes. I asked who she was and she said...
I didn't have to know.
Who is she?
Why do you want to know?
You can go. I have to go somewhere.
- You're going out? - Yes.
I'm done practicing.
Hye Rin, did you get a new dress?
Yes. I ordered three while I was at it. Do you mind?
- Well done. - Thanks.
Why don't you say anything? You didn't get a new dress.
It's fine. It's about singing well.
Who cares about a dress?
Mr. Cha, I have something to tell you. It's about my brother.
I'm busy.
Did he go out?
(Hoseo Dam Bidding Proposal)
Ms. Jung, are you back from the bank?
(Through the Waves)
What are you doing here?
How can I help you?
I erased him from my life.
Uhm Soon Young. Isn't that an old-fashioned name?
Can I speak to the seamstress?
We'll have no trouble winning the bid with this.
- I'm busy. - Is it your boyfriend?
- Send this immediately. - Haemyung Construction?
If I find one more photo, you're done for.
The information I sent should be enough.
Soon Young's life is a mess? What does that mean?
Say hello. This is the husband that I adore.
That's Ms. Uhm, my favorite worker.
