Excuse me.
Is anyone home?
We're from the police.
The police?
- Mother. - Ok Boon.
Stay here. Don't go outside.
Why are you here?
We got a call about spies, so we're checking.
What? Spies?
Are you alone?
Where's your family?
Well... They're...
Is your husband not in?
Well...
Please don't go in there.
(Episode 3)
Come outside.
Grandma.
Mother.
Where's your husband?
Well, he's...
Is your husband called Jang Soo Cheon?
No, that's not his name.
My dad's name is Oh Hee Moon.
That's right. Our dad is Oh Hee Moon.
Where is he now?
He's...
Where is he and what is he doing?
He went to Gangwon Province to make money.
Oh no, her husband must be a spy.
We don't know for sure yet.
Kyung Ho.
Don't play with her, Kyung Ho.
Her dad is a spy.
Don't be stupid. Why is my dad a spy?
The police are at your home right now.
- At Bok Shil's home? - Yes.
- My dad's not a spy. - He is!
No, he's not!
Bok Shil.
You brat.
Hey.
Don't fight. Talk it out.
Don't fight.
What does he do in Gangwon Province?
He works there.
- What work? - That's...
What's his address?
Don't you know his address? You must have a contact!
I...
No, I...
You need to come with us to the station. Take her.
Don't do this.
The person you want isn't my husband.
- We're not... - Mom.
Whether he is or not,
we'll find out. Take her!
Let go of me! We aren't that kind of people.
- Ok Boon! - Mom.
- Ok Boon! - You can't take her!
- Let her go! - Get out the way!
We're not that kind of people.
- Oh no, what now? - Mom.
What are you doing by someone's home?
Mr. Kim.
The police are searching the neighborhood for a spy.
They're saying that woman's husband is one.
- What? - Come on out.
- Let go of me! - Walk!
- Oh dear. - Mom!
My goodness, officer.
Mr. Kim.
What's this about spies?
We got a call about...
a Jang Soo Cheon living in the area.
Jang Soo Cheon?
My dad isn't a spy.
That's not my husband's name.
Okay, okay, don't worry.
Officer Song, you got the wrong family.
That Jang Soo Cheon.
He did live in this house for a short while.
Let's see, was it two weeks ago?
He disappeared one night without a word.
He disappeared?
Flight by night.
I got up next morning...
and he'd left without saying goodbye.
That's right.
That's right, Officer Song.
And this lady moved in here just two days ago.
Yes. We only just moved in.
Yes, I'm witness to that.
I was coming back from performing with a traveling theater...
- and we met them. - We did.
We had to carry their belongings for them.
We had a really hard time.
Mr. Kim, are you sure about that?
Of course I am.
I'd get into huge trouble for lying about this.
Ok Boon.
It's okay, Mother.
- Oh dear. - Were you very scared, ma'am?
What happened was...
Ma'am, the person who lived here...
before you for a short while was a spy.
Yes.
That was it.
That's why he left leaving half his belongings.
Yes. Either way, now the police know that...
it had nothing to do with you.
Now you can relax and get on with your life.
Okay. Thank you so much.
You got off easily thanks to Mr. Kim.
Think about it.
The worst thing in life is to be considered a spy.
Even if you were innocent,
they'd have ruined you first.
- Isn't that true, honey? - You're very right.
She owes Sang Man for not having to go to the police station.
Thank you so much.
- Thank you, mister. - Thank you, mister.
It's nothing.
I only told the officer the truth.
What's your husband doing alone in Gangwon...
- I think we should go. - Yes.
Try to relax. Bye.
- Oh dear. - Mother.
Let's go.
Sit down.
Listen carefully to what I say.
Your dad... He went to...
Gangwon Province to make money.
If anyone asks, that's what you say. Remember that.
Didn't you promise to meet him in Seoul?
Yes, I found that strange too.
- I want to go too. - What?
I want to go to Dad. Send me to him.
Don't be silly.
We have to wait here for him.
When will he join us?
That's all you need to know.
Don't forget what I just told you.
Your dad's in Gangwon Province to earn money, okay?
The rest of you can leave.
I want to talk to Jeong Hoon.
I won't stay here. I'll go to Dad.
- Jeong Hoon. - Yes?
From now on, you must take your dad's place.
While he's gone,
you must look after your brothers and sister and...
consider yourself the man of the house.
Why won't you answer?
I want to ask you something first.
Why did Dad go to Gangwon Province? What for?
When will he come back? Will it take a while?
He'll be back soon.
Why are we living here?
What was in the bag you lost?
You don't need to worry about that and just study.
Our family's future is in your hands.
I'll do whatever it takes...
to support you.
Study as hard as you can and become a judge or something...
and help us all.
I believe in you, okay?
Okay.
Good.
Don't forget what I said.
You could say you're still young,
but I need you to be our pillar of strength.
Okay?
Yes.
Jeong Tae, let's go to Dad.
How do you know where he is?
He's in Gangwon Province.
Do you know where that is?
We can ask people on the way.
What did Mom say?
Well?
What? Is it a secret?
We have to stay here from now on.
I won't. I'll go to Dad.
I don't want to be so poor.
- Me too. - Don't say that now.
We must stay here until Dad comes home.
No. I don't want to live like this.
Jeong Tae, you need to study harder.
You're going to middle school soon.
I know, I know, I'll study.
Mister, is Bok Shil's family really okay?
Isn't her dad a spy?
Stop it. He's not a spy at all.
Kyung Ho, don't worry.
Hey, Choon Ja.
Shouldn't you go and read?
I bought you a whole set of biographies.
Whatever. Who said I read that?
She's such a brat.
Kyung Ho, you go and study too.
Don't mind anyone else.
You need to study for the middle school entrance exam.
Okay.
What does that woman's husband do in Gangwon Province?
Why do they live separately?
His mother, wife, and kids are all in Seoul.
Stop it.
Why do you want to know about their private life?
Don't be nosy.
Bok Shil.
Your room is so empty.
I haven't combed your hair for you in a while.
I'm sorry.
I should've kept an eye on your belongings.
Later on, Mommy will buy you...
more dolls,
a pair of red shoes with ribbons...
That was...
Dad's present to me last summer.
It was.
I'll buy you another one just like it.
- Mom. - What?
I don't like it here.
Mom.
Bok Shil.
We have to live here now.
Will you do as I say?
No, I don't want to.
Bok Shil.
Dad. I want to go and live with Dad.
Bok Shil. Bok Shil.
Bok Shil.
Grandma, I'm off to take the exam.
Grandma, I'm off.
Okay, good luck boys.
Are you both confident?
You bet.
Jeong Hoon will come first in his year, me in mine.
Good luck, Jeong Tae. You too, Jeong Hoon.
Kyung Ho, relax and do your best.
Stop saying the same thing.
- You'll be late. Good luck. - Go ahead.
- Hello. - Hello.
Good luck on the exams.
- Thanks. - Thanks.
Go on ahead.
- Bye. - Good luck.
- Kyung Ho, I believe in you. - Bye.
Don't make any mistakes.
Gosh.
Don't worry, take some.
- Come and have a look. - I have fresh vegetables.
Fresh vegetables and herbs.
Come on, they're not that expensive.
Fresh vegetables.
Buy some sweet potatoes.
I have... Sweet...
Buy some sweet potatoes.
Buy some sweet potatoes. They're nice and sweet.
Who are you?
Move, this is my spot.
What's wrong?
I said move. This is my spot.
Are there allocated spots?
Must we pay?
Move out the way.
Let's do business together.
I sell sweet potatoes. We can both stay.
Are you crazy? I barely make enough on my own.
Move.
Don't do this.
I don't think the spots are allocated.
Are you trying to take my customers?
Go away. Get lost.
I can't leave.
I got here first.
Are you here to steal my spot?
Let go so we can talk.
Don't you dare call my dad a spy again.
I'll beat you up.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Hey, isn't that your mom?
Let go.
We can talk if you let go. Let go!
How dare you try to steal my spot?
- Let go of my mom! - Let go.
Who are you?
Let go of me!
Who are you two?
Bok Shil.
What are you doing here, Mom?
Why was she grabbing your hair?
It's nothing. You go on home.
Are you the thief's daughter?
Watch your tongue.
You tried to steal my spot. How is that not a thief?
My mom's not a thief.
Will you come and have a look?
Come and have a look at the woman who almost stole my spot.
I didn't know it was your spot. I'll go somewhere else.
So stop it.
Go home.
Mom, let's go. Let's get out of here.
Go home first.
Choon Ja, can you take her home?
Bok Shil.
Bok Shil. Bok Shil!
Grandma, I did really well in the exam.
Did you? Well done. Where's your brother?
The high school exam takes longer. He should be back soon.
Okay, come inside and get some rest.
Why are you crying? Did you fight?
Grandma, Mom... Mom...
What about her?
Stop crying and explain.
Some woman in the marketplace...
grabbed Mom's hair and called her a thief.
What for? Why?
Because Mom tried to sell something in her spot.
What? She's selling stuff?
Mom sells stuff in the marketplace?
Where are you going?
Grandma.
What?
Is that why she asked me for some sweet potatoes?
To sell them.
Not everyone's cut out to sell stuff in the marketplace.
She must've had a terrible first day.
She must feel terrible that her kid saw it.
I feel sorry for her.
She has four kids and a mother-in-law.
She'll need to do something...
to feed and support them all.
Oh dear.
By the way, Kyung Ho.
Did you ace the exam?
Yes. I didn't make any mistakes.
That's good, then. That'll do.
Well done, my baby. Well done.
Well done, Kyung Ho.
I have to go to the village council.
Okay. Don't be late.
I was excited that I did well in the exam.
My legs ache.
- Mom. - Why are you outside?
Are you okay?
Yes. How was the exam?
Did you make any mistakes?
That's not the issue.
How long have you been working?
I felt stuffy cooped up all day long.
Is Jeong Hoon not back yet?
He'll be home in time.
Ok Boon, if you're back, come in.
Yes, Mother.
Well done today. Get some rest.
Darn it.
Jeong Tae, is Bok Shil home?
Did she tell you what happened?
- That your mom... - Were you with her?
- Yes. - Let's go.
Where to?
Why do you want to sell stuff?
Give it up.
Then what are we to live on?
I can't do anything else, and I need to feed the kids.
Ok Boon.
I'll go and cook dinner.
My goodness.
That's her.
That's her?
Buy some rice cakes. Tasty rice cakes.
Jeong Tae.
- Tasty rice cakes. - I shouldn't have brought him here.
Tasty rice cakes.
Do you want rice cakes? How many?
They look disgusting.
What? If you won't buy, get lost.
Tasty rice cakes. Buy some rice cakes.
They're really horrible. They smell of pee.
Don't just go.
You fool. Get lost.
The rice cakes smell of pee. The rice cakes smell of pee.
You brat.
Your rice cakes are horrible.
They're disgusting.
You fool. No!
Get that fool! Stop him!
Mom. Who was that?
What a mess.
Jeong Tae, you were pretty great.
You can't tell my mom, okay?
Okay. I won't tell her.
The snow is falling
On the windy south pier
I cry out with all my might
I keep on looking
Why did you stop?
I cry when I'm sad.
Then I feel better.
But...
right now I feel sad even when I sing.
Bok Shil.
Kyung Ho.
I don't like living here.
I don't like that my mom has to sell stuff.
Why should she work?
Why must she get into fights in public?
You can't complain.
You need to understand her.
I can't.
If only Dad were with us,
Mom wouldn't have to work.
What is your dad like?
My dad?
My dad's a really great guy.
He's handsome and has a lot of money.
He loved me a lot.
I love him more than anyone in the world.
I see.
Don't you like your dad?
I think your dad's really cool.
He's a great saxophone player.
I don't like that he plays the saxophone.
Why?
I wish he were a normal guy like your dad...
and like Choon Ja's dad.
I think he's cool.
Will you stop crying?
Did you do well in the exam?
Yes. How did Jeong Hoon do?
I don't know. I haven't seen him yet.
Why were you so late?
I found a large bookstore and read for a while.
It's no time to read.
Do you know what's going on?
Why aren't you in your room?
Mom.
You don't need to worry.
I'm doing what I should.
You do what you must.
I told you that you just have to study.
Don't worry about the family.
That's...
how you can repay me, okay?
Okay, Mom.
Well done studying for the exam.
Get some rest.
I don't know what to do.
Why is there no work at all?
Hello, honey.
Do we have any warm water?
Warm water?
Do you have a death wish?
Your wife's been up since dawn...
trying to make a few pennies...
while you, the breadwinner...
slept in until the sun's high in the sky...
and you want warm water?
Are there no clothes to mend?
You're so good. People would pay what you want.
There's no work!
So many people ask that there's nothing for me!
Okay.
It's freezing cold.
I need you to get a grip and look for work.
We might have to steal to save up...
to send Kyung Ho to school.
I'm so worried.
Choon Sam.
That scumbag.
Mal Soon, you're home too.
What do you want, Johnny?
I got you a job.
- Flower Hill Farming. - Yes.
They're going on a trip...
and they need a sax player.
Are you in?
- Is that true? - Yes.
What are you doing? Come and get ready.
Johnny Kim, you just saved my life.
- You're welcome. - Thanks.
- Wait here. - Get ready.
Sure.
My goodness.
Johnny, take this.
- Okay... - Gosh.
Here. Let's go.
- Let's hurry. - You're coming too?
Of course I am.
Johnny loves to gamble.
You'll lose your earnings.
Let's go.
Honey, why do you want to come along?
Stop talking. Choon Ja, come here.
Come here. When Kyung Ho comes home,
can you tell him that we went on a gig?
Why do I have to tell him?
Do me a favor. Let's go.
Come on, lead the way.
- Johnny, get my shoes. - Hurry up.
- Okay, okay. - I got your shoes.
- Sang Man! - Bring them!
What a mess.
Sang Man!
Starting today, we're friends.
Why?
You fought with me yesterday.
- Friend, let's go and play. - Okay.
Where's Jeong Tae?
Let's play with him too.
Okay.
Rock-paper-scissors. Rock-paper-scissors.
Yes, I won.
- I won't play. - You can't say that.
I don't want to play the peg.
Bok Shil, I'll be the peg.
You can't, she lost.
Kyung Ho said he'll take my place.
Stay out if you mind.
Okay, let's play.
Here I come!
Me too.
Okay. Jeong Woo can just sit.
Here I come!
- That stinks. - That stinks.
What a stink.
Was it you? You?
No.
Was it you?
It was not. I don't fart.
- It was you. - It was not.
- Kim Choon Ja is a farter. - She's a farter.
She's a farter.
I'm not a farter.
It wasn't her, it was me. I farted.
Don't you fart? I do a lot.
See?
Jeong Tae.
- Let's go fishing for fish - Let's go fishing for fish
You messed up.
- Let's go fishing for fish - Let's go fishing for fish
What'll you be when you grow up?
That's so random.
I'll be a judge or a prosecutor.
I'll go to middle school, high school, and university.
Then I'll be a judge or prosecutor.
Why that?
It's a cool job.
I can arrest all the bad guys.
Isn't that what a man should do?
- Sounds cool. - What about you?
I never thought about that in detail.
Then why study so hard?
Because it makes my parents happy.
That's why I study and will go to a good school.
Can't I just try hard at everything?
You have a point.
- Admiral Yi, let's go fishing - Admiral Yi, let's go fishing
I was waiting for you.
For me? What for?
Rice cakes, tasty rice cakes.
You're out nice and early.
You're so hard-working.
What are you doing here?
Do you want rice cakes?
I'll buy a lot next time.
Today...
I brought someone I'd like you to work with.
That woman?
Don't be like that.
Can't you work side-by-side?
No one owns or pays for these spots.
Whoever comes first gets to take a place.
- But Mr. Kim, I... - Come on.
When we get some relief goods, I'll give you some extra.
Do you know her?
Yes. She moved into the house opposite mine.
Ma'am, come closer.
I didn't know better yesterday. I'm very sorry.
I'll let you stay...
only because Mr. Kim asked me to.
Thank you.
Let me help.
I guess that's sorted, then.
Thank you so much for looking out for me.
Don't say that.
Goodbye, then.
- Goodbye. - Bye.
Buy some sweet potatoes.
Tasty rice cakes.
I have lovely sweet potatoes.
Buy some sweet potatoes.
You want me to look at land?
What for?
Don't ask.
Just go around and see if there are any nice plots.
What will you build?
You talk too much.
What was in the bag we picked up...
on the way here?
Was there gold or something?
There wasn't much.
If there were anything, I'd have shared it, not kept it to myself.
Right. I trust you.
Hey, callo. Hi, surgent.
"Surgent"?
It's Sergeant and hello, not callo.
You should at least get the words right.
Who cares?
Hey, callo. Hi, surgent.
Wonderful, fish jerky, lighter.
You fool.
I have some tasty sweet potatoes.
- Rice cakes. - Tasty sweet potatoes.
Buy some sweet potatoes. They're nice and sweet.
Lady, give me two.
Sure.
(Through the Waves)
If only I hadn't lost that bag,
my grandkids...
wouldn't have to go through this.
Did you take the coal...
from Choon Ja's bedroom?
Do you think my wife's a thief?
- Fight me. - My goodness.
I have to pay by tomorrow.
I don't have enough.
Did you know?
You knew she only paid your tuition.
Aren't you too young to go around hitting people?
I found you, you thug.
Who are you calling a thug?
Get out! Get out of here!
- He's what? - Hey!
Jeong Woo, stay close to your sister.
Don't worry, Mom.
Bok Shil, I want to pee.
Bok Shil. Bok Shil.
Jeong Woo, let's go.
Jeong Woo.
