Let's talk.
What are you doing?
- Were you waiting for me here? - Let's talk.
I have nothing to say to you.
It won't take long.
I said have nothing to say.
- It won't take long. - What's wrong with you?
Ms. Uhm.
What are you two doing here?
What's going on?
Why are you together?
We met by chance and said hi.
I have to go.
Did you really just say hi? It didn't look like it.
You two looked really serious.
What reason would we have to be serious?
What are you doing here at this hour?
Didn't you go to work?
I had to meet someone first, and I'm heading to work now.
I have to go. You should go inside too.
Okay. We can talk later.
(Episode 61)
What's wrong? Are you sick?
You don't look too good.
I'm fine.
Hello, Ms. Hwang.
Ms. Uhm, what did you say to my husband?
What do you mean?
We just greeted each other.
Did you?
Why did you both look surprised to see me?
You must be mistaken.
What do you mean, Ms. Hwang?
I was about to come in...
when I saw Ms. Uhm with my husband.
I guess they met by chance...
when my husband was on his way to work after meeting someone.
By the way, Ms. Jung.
We couldn't take customers because of the fashion show.
Call our regulars.
Okay.
- Welcome, Mr. Oh. - Hello.
I have something to report.
Maybe later.
He doesn't look too good, does he?
He doesn't, and he came in late.
Can't you tell that he fought with his wife?
You're still single and wouldn't know,
but if you come to work grumpy, it's because you fought your spouse.
Tell Mr. Han to come in.
Hi.
What's the report on?
Ever since I heard that Haemyung had...
similar objectives compared to ours in their Hoseo Dam proposal,
something's been bothering me.
What do you mean? What's been bothering you?
I'm reluctant to tell you this,
but I went to give a file to Mr. Hwang...
and saw Mr. Cha in his office.
Mr. Hwang was out, and Mr. Cha was there alone.
After Mr. Cha left,
I noticed that the Hoseo proposal was lying at an angle.
That's been bothering me.
What are you getting at?
I think Mr. Cha read the file...
and hastily put it down as I came in.
I let it go at the time,
but then I went to Lucky where an employee said something odd.
Like what?
Mr. Cha made him send a letter to Haemyung Construction.
A letter?
Yes. From what the employee said,
I don't think Lucky has business with Haemyung Construction.
It looks like he just did an errand his CEO sent him on.
Mr. Cha...
leaked our information to Haemyung, is that it?
But he has no reason to do so.
He practically works for Daeguk Construction.
He has no reason to ruin a project we're risking everything on.
I wonder if I'm reaching.
I was just concerned.
I know what you're worried about,
but for now, let's keep this between us.
Okay.
- Send it to the Album Association. - Yes, sir.
Mr. Cha.
What did you send to Haemyung Construction?
Are you working on something with them?
You don't have to know.
- And keep quiet about it, okay? - Pardon?
Okay.
Here's your pay for singing at the cabaret.
This is my pay? Thank you, sir.
This is nothing.
I'll come to the cabaret after my lectures.
How can she not be happy when this is our first pay?
Mr. Cha.
Can you let me sing there again?
I'll negotiate safety measures with Mr. Jo,
and then decide. Wait until then.
I don't mind. Experience is more important to me.
I'll start again today.
Grandma, I'm leaving.
- Okay. Wait. - Why?
Did you tell Bok Shil that I want to see her?
No. I haven't seen her yet, so I couldn't tell her.
Why not?
You said she sings at the cabaret you work at.
She wasn't there yesterday.
Why, is she sick? Is that why she wasn't there?
No, it's not that.
Is it okay to let her visit without Mom knowing?
She might complain when she finds out later.
A grandma wants to see her granddaughter.
What would your mom say about that? Don't worry, and bring her over.
- Okay. You're awesome. - Right?
Bye.
You're leaving already?
I want to ask you something.
What?
Why does a man buy a woman medicine?
That means he likes her, right? That's why he buys medicine?
What are you talking about?
I saw Bok Shil yesterday, and her CEO had bought her ointment.
So her cut wouldn't fester.
Do you think he likes her?
How bad was the cut?
It was that big.
It healed quick, and she looked fine.
You got me a cream when I had the urine rash.
Didn't you get that because you liked me?
Fine, you can think what you want.
Wait, Jeong Tae.
Have one. It's really tasty.
Or take the whole bag. Nothing's a waste on you.
No, thanks. Doesn't spring ever get to you?
Me? Of course it does.
That's why I feel so happy when I see you.
What a thing to say.
Most people lose their appetites, but yours seems to be going strong.
Jeong Tae, you lost your appetite?
That's bad.
Thank you.
- Jeong Tae. - Hi.
You're back again?
Thanks for the food, ma'am.
You're just leaving again?
And you're going to send your driver to pay?
Let him go.
I'd really love to meet that driver.
Mr. Kim must be that driver.
He paid for what the old man ate.
- Hello. - Hi, Mr. Kim.
Hi. You're here too?
Yes.
Did my father-in-law not pay for his food again?
I just saw him.
Yes, he had noodles.
Then I'll pay for two. I'll have a bowl.
You have a lot of work outside the office nowadays?
Yes. Goodness.
We started issuing ID cards last year,
and people aren't used to them and keep losing them.
I have to interview people who need a new one, so my feet are sore.
Here, Mr. Kim.
Thanks, Jeong Woo.
What should we eat to improve our appetite?
Why? You lost yours?
Not me, my father-in-law.
He complains about my food because he lost his appetite.
- I'm off to work. - Okay.
- Enjoy your meal. - All right. See you.
- Take care. - Bye.
Jeong Tae.
Let me see your face.
I'm fine. You heard about it?
Yes. Why did that have to happen while I was away? I feel bad.
Your CEO said he wouldn't let you sing. Why are you here?
I said I'd sing. Commotions don't happen every night.
Right. I'll take extra care, so don't you worry.
I won't. I feel so safe with you around.
You should. I should look out for you.
Come home one day. Grandma wants to see you.
She does?
Yes. She heard you went to see Mom and ended up crying.
She felt bad and wants to see you at home.
Spare some time.
Okay. I miss her too.
- Go and get ready. - Okay.
Why would you bring a girl you said you wouldn't allow to sing?
I was going to bring her only after you guaranteed her safety,
but I can't stop a singer who wants to sing on stage.
Make sure nothing like that happens again.
Drunk men can act out.
If word gets out that you don't manage your customers,
who would want to sing here?
Wouldn't that harm your business?
We do manage our customers.
Floor Manager, watch the customers.
If they get drunk and cause trouble, who would want to sing here?
I heard about it. I was away at the time.
Thanks for looking after my sister.
That's fine. You're her brother, so I won't ask you to watch her.
Right. I'll make sure nothing like that happens again.
Don't just protect your sister. Look after Hye Rin too.
How does Hye Rin know my boss?
I know everything he does,
but I just can't tell his relationship with Hye Rin.
Is she his mistress?
If you want to know, ask yourself.
I did want to know, so I went to ask him.
He won't tell me.
Mr. Cha, I can't stand not knowing. Will you just tell me?
Who's this boss he's talking about?
Daeguk Construction's CEO. Who else?
Daeguk Construction?
Our CEO and the CEO of Daeguk Construction...
are like brothers.
This cabaret was originally Mr. Hwang's.
They're like brothers?
Ms. Uhm, do you know Ms. Hwang's husband?
I thought I saw you talk to him for a while at the fashion show.
You know him, don't you?
I don't.
I'll keep it from Ms. Hwang. Just tell me.
- What are you talking about? - Ms. Hwang.
You're leaving?
Yes. I finished my work for the day.
Then you can go.
Ms. Jung, what were you saying to her?
What were you going to keep from me?
The thing is...
I thought I saw Ms. Uhm talk to your husband...
for a while after the fashion show.
- What? - So I asked Ms. Uhm,
and she said I was mistaken.
That's what we were talking about.
Really?
Where were you at?
The Ministry of Construction.
Haemyung and our proposals are very similar, down to the details.
The details too?
Yes. They also proposed to develop the lake...
and surrounding area as a tourist attraction.
They even have the same facilities.
How is that possible?
Kyung Ho, do you have any connections within Haemyung?
A close senior of mine recently quit from their planning office.
Can you find out through him in secret...
when Haemyung came up with their proposal?
If he quit recently, he must still be in touch with his colleagues.
Okay.
Goodness.
The waiting room's been smelling disgusting again.
- What is it? - What do you think?
He's afraid Mr. Jo will hear about it and kick him out.
Johnny eats and sleeps here.
My wife threw him out, and he has nowhere to go.
You got kicked out again?
This is worse than a marketplace.
It smells and is so noisy.
I'm done.
I want the sewing room as my waiting room.
Empty it for me.
What did you say? Empty the sewing room?
What nonsense are you talking now?
Didn't you hear that the CEO said I can ask for anything I want?
What did you just say? "Didn't you hear?"
Did you just speak to me like we're friends?
She did. I heard it myself.
You really have no manners.
Don't stop me today.
I will teach her a lesson.
- No. - No, Mal Soon.
Let go of me. I'll just...
You stay still. Stay still.
I will teach this brat true order...
and how things work around here.
You do that.
We're old enough to be her parents.
- You're way too rude. - That's right.
We should show her how strict...
the hierarchy is in our industry.
Let's do that. What should we do first?
How about leapfrog?
- Leapfrog? - Yes.
- Okay. Make her leapfrog. - Okay.
Did you hear him?
Get to it!
I should do what?
Go on. I told you to leapfrog.
What's all this noise?
They want me to leapfrog and learn manners.
What? You fools. You all leapfrog.
Do it, now!
Why aren't you joining in?
I got a booking for a table of 10 tomorrow.
I'm bringing back our old regulars.
Are you? Then you're exempt.
Make sure they leapfrog 20 times.
One.
Ae Shim, we did more than five already.
You did? Then 6, 7.
Hey, this is all your fault.
Do you want to join in too?
Mal Soon, Choon Sam, get up.
Let them finish. Mr. Jo will yell if they don't.
Stand up.
Keep counting, Madam Gu!
I lost track. Oh, whatever. 19, 20, you're done.
- Oh, dear. - Oh, dear, my joints...
- I should just quit. - I should too.
What are you saying?
You look at me with that sweet gaze
But your lips say something else
Is this a play we are putting on?
Is this what love is always like?
Just like waves
That crash endlessly
My love for you
Flows towards you
Just like waves
My love for you
Flows towards you
(Golden Chariot Cabaret)
Love passed me by and has now gone
Everyone leads a lonely life
My world was a shabby place
With just one sad love story
One day, when autumn had come
Jeong Hoon's late again.
Is there that much to do?
He's busy working on an important bid.
Mi Jin, don't complain that he comes home late.
Hey!
What? What is it?
Why have you been looking so distracted?
Dad.
Is there a client or vendor near my boutique?
What do you mean?
Jeong Hoon's been in the area often,
saying he needs to see someone.
The Ministry of Construction's nearby,
and when you work, you have to meet a lot of people.
Really?
Why are you asking? Is Jeong Hoon up to something?
Like what?
You've been looking concerned.
I'm not.
- You're home. - Hello.
- You're late. - Yes.
How are things with Haemyung?
I'm looking into it. I'll report to you in detail at work.
You do that. You can all go upstairs now.
- Goodnight. - Sleep well.
Go upstairs first. I'll bring your tonic.
Okay.
Jeong Hoon.
Uncle said there's an important bid. Are things going well?
I'm hoping so.
Yes, they should. It must be tough on you.
Sang Pil.
Do you...
know someone in Haemyung?
How would I know anyone there?
Why would you ask that?
It's just that we're up against them in the final round.
You unearthed Haemyung's CEO's scandal before Mr. Hwang's election,
so I was hoping to ask you for help if you knew someone.
Sorry I can't be of any help.
Why are you standing there?
It's nothing.
Drink it.
I will drink it after my shower. Leave it here.
Jeong Hoon.
Who did you meet near my boutique this morning?
Someone from the Ministry of Construction.
The Ministry of Construction?
What did you say to Ms. Uhm after the fashion show?
What do you mean?
Ms. Jung said she thought she saw you two talk for a while there.
She was mistaken. I have to shower.
Okay.
Jeong Hoon.
I asked you to treat my employees to a meal.
You met someone near my boutique before,
and you were there again this morning.
You seem to be in the area often.
Can't you treat us to a meal then?
I'm not free for a while.
I'm off to shower.
Even a hen can't lay eggs if she isn't fed well.
An old rooster like me...
needs to eat better.
You don't lay eggs.
Hey.
Before you leave,
I know I should feed you something nutritious,
but I'm just so busy with work.
I'm sorry I can't cook better foods.
You work for the government, so your work should come first.
You can worry about me when you're free. Take your time.
Grandpa, when will you be done finding that grave site?
Will you leave after that?
The soup's delicious.
Do you have a lot of work? Why are you back so late?
We have an important project. I'll be late for a while.
You work too hard.
Eat up. You need to eat well to work.
Cook him some meat as well.
Vegetables don't provide much energy.
Shall I do that?
Now that Johnny's gone, shall I cook you some meat?
I'm fine.
Watch your foot, darling.
There's a saying that you shouldn't touch even dogs when they're eating.
It's about time you think of marriage, don't you agree?
When the project's over,
I'll set you up on a date with a lovely girl.
I won't go on a date.
Not that nonsense again.
I want a nice daughter-in-law who supports...
her husband and respects her in-laws. Okay?
I agree with you.
Kyung Ho, there are many nasty girls out there.
There's one at our cabaret.
Don't you date someone like her. Okay?
You bet.
Kyung Ho.
- You just came in? - What do you want?
I dropped by to see you before going to a lecture.
I have something to say.
What do you have to say to me?
I like you.
Can I come and see you often?
I like someone else. Is that a good enough answer?
Kyung Ho.
Is this a new album?
Yes. We'll send it to the broadcasting stations.
When will mine come out?
Mr. Cha's working on it.
You'll record one soon.
Jin Kyu, do you have the press releases to send out?
I'm almost done.
- Bring them in. - Okay.
Se Ra, we need to talk.
- How well do you know Kyung Ho? - What do you mean?
He said he likes someone. What do you know?
I just met him, and he said he likes someone.
Do you know who she is?
- How would I? - You don't?
I can't know everything about him.
And why should I tell you about that anyway?
I told you that I'm interested in him.
Bok Shil.
Mr. Cha.
Why are you here?
Can't I come here?
Are you ignoring me because you're a singer now?
Do you really not know who Mr. Han likes?
I don't.
Who are you talking about? Are you talking about Kyung Ho?
- Let's go outside. - Do you know him?
I know him well. Why do you ask?
I'm interested in him,
and I want to know a few things.
You're interested in Kyung Ho?
Then be nice to Bok Shil.
She's Kyung Ho's cousin.
Hey.
What? It's true. Let's go.
Those two are cousins?
You bought your family presents with your first pay?
Good for you, Bok Shil.
How does that girl know Kyung Ho?
They studied to the same university. I think she likes him.
What about him? Does he like her?
He doesn't like her too, does he?
What does that make you? Does that leave you out?
- Go on in. - Okay, let's go.
Not my home. You go to your home.
Will you be okay on your own?
What if your mom's home?
How do you feel? You haven't been home for a year.
Okay. I'm going in.
Dad, you bought meat?
Your grandpa's been saying he lost his appetite.
I bought a chunk while I was out for work.
I can't let it rot away,
so I'll keep in the salt jar.
Why am I drooling? That's so ugly of me.
Oh, my dear.
You must've been through so much.
I missed you, Grandma.
And yet you never visited me?
Let me have a look at you, my puppy.
You don't look too bad.
I've been fine.
Good. I heard you went to the restaurant...
where your mom yelled at you. Were you very upset?
It wasn't because she hates you.
She's upset that you were disobedient and left home.
She's also worried about how you must be going through a lot.
That's why she said what she did.
I know, Grandma.
If you know how your mom feels,
visit us at home often...
and go see your mom at the restaurant too.
You shouldn't try to one-up your mom.
I won't, Grandma.
This is for you.
I bought it with my first paycheck.
You didn't have to bring anything.
I heard you sing at your brother's cabaret.
- Did they pay you? - Yes.
Do you like to sing that much?
Enough to leave home?
Yes, Grandma.
I'll become successful and make Mom proud of me.
Okay. You got this far on your own...
without help from any of us.
I can't stop you now.
You haven't been home in so long.
I should feed you a warm meal.
Wait here.
Okay, Grandma.
Bok Shil, are you here?
- Bok Shil. - Jeong Woo.
- When did you arrive? - Not long ago.
Why aren't you at the restaurant?
Mom sent me to get something.
Give me that.
Did you compose it?
I was bored.
You're interested in music?
Since when? I had no idea.
It's a secret. Keep it to yourself.
Okay.
Here. I got paid, so I'm giving you some pocket money.
I don't need it. You keep it for yourself.
Buy whatever you want to buy.
I'll give you more later.
Thanks, Bok Shil.
I thought I saw Ms. Uhm talk to your husband...
for a while after the fashion show.
Jeong Hoon, it's me.
Are you free after work today?
You said you'd treat my employees to dinner.
I'm not free today.
I have to work late. Sorry.
Okay, bye.
Can we all talk?
My husband wants to thank you for your work on the fashion show...
by treating you to dinner.
He's too busy today and can't do it.
He wants to treat us too?
He must be so kind.
He is. He's really sweet to me.
Hello, this is Jini Boutique.
Ms. Uhm? Just a moment.
It's for you.
It's a woman.
Hello?
Why do you sound strange? What's wrong?
Something's wrong with Min Su.
Why? What's wrong?
Okay, I'll be right there.
I have to go home first.
Ms. Uhm!
What's up with her?
- Madam Gu's not here? - No.
Why is she not here when she has to cater to a large group?
Go and get her.
- At her home? - We got her address.
Go and find her.
What should I do? My gosh.
Min Su, what's wrong? What should I do?
- Soon Young. - How is he?
Min Su.
I don't know what's wrong with him.
His temperature suddenly spiked.
You should've taken him to a doctor then.
But... Soon Young.
(Through the Waves)
- It's meat. - Choon Ja.
Bok Shil left it for you.
Stop it already. Must I tell you what kind of man I am?
- Is it because of Ms. Uhm? - Soon Young.
It looked like you knew each other.
It's my kid, not Soon Young's.
You're Mr. Han's cousin. I should get on your good side.
What kid? How can I have a kid at my age?
It's my birthday today.
There's a baby.
I'm sorry that this is all I can do for you.
She left with Mr. Cha.
Who's there?
We should go inside.
