Hello.
We're from Myungsoo Interior.
-Please go in that way. -Yes.
Where do you think you're going?
I guess you don't know yet. I just signed a boarding house agreement.
Check with your mother-in-law.
What agreement?
Sowon! Why are you stopping him?
Mother, what is he talking about? What agreement?
You have to concentrate on remodeling. Go inside.
Mother.
Be quiet.
We were so lucky. Great.
Mother.
How much? $1,500?
Yes, $1,500.
$1,500 for a room? Does it make sense that he even offered to fix it up?
I know. I was shocked when I heard.
We're about to live under the same roof with a crook.
He's not a crook. She confirmed that he was a VP at CE Group.
Are you serious?
Yes.
Then what about that paper? I didn't take one step out from the building.
Someone could've switched the paper inside the building.
That's so odd. I didn't even bump into anyone.
Well, forget that. We got $1,500. We hit a jackpot.
With that, he could've gotten an apartment in Kangnam. Strange.
That room wasn't even worth $400 so you should be happy. Why fret?
Mom. Did he request some weird terms in the agreement?
Yeah, where's the contract, Mother? I'll take a look.
We had a realtor draft it. But...
But?
Well... It's not a monthly rent...
It's a boarding house agreement.
We have to feed him breakfast, dinner, cleaning, laundry...
I promised to provide a top hotel level service.
Huh? Boarding house agreement?
Provide what service?
I'm home.
Yes. How was the photo shoot?
Forget the photo shoot. I shoot an action movie instead.
Action movie?
Like six years ago... Remember Billy I met at Bali?
Billy? I don't even remember what I ate for breakfast.
How could I remember your ex-boyfriend six years ago?
I met this guy at a club when I went to Bali with friends.
Handsome but so energetic too. So I had a ball for a week.
He fell for my look so he showed me around everywhere for free.
I was so thankful so I wired him $500 as a tip.
Ah! I remember now.
You added one more zero accidentally so you sent him $5,000.
But that bastard broke off contact with you, right?
That's right. You sure have an amazing memory.
I met that Bali Billy face to face today.
-You should've beat the hell out of him. -Pardon?
Oh, I almost got him. But that jerk disappeared right in front of my eyes.
I'm home.
Hey!
Is work some joke to you? You get off work when everyone's working?
So lazy.
Did she have a bad day?
She met someone when she went for a photo shoot.
How was VP Kang? He feels like a brother, doesn't he?
Grandma. I'm going to just stay at Strategy & Planning, Grandma.
What?
I think I should.
-Why? Did something bad happen today? -No, nothing like that.
I just feel uncomfortable about moving department. Sorry, Grandma.
Sukhyun. Sukhyun...
He's so...
He's gonna fix up the livingroom and restroom too. With 2 other rooms...
I mean, 3 rooms with the storage, we can earn over $3,000 a month.
If we could, it'll be awesome.
If we can earn $3,000, we don't have to worry about Hyunwoo's hospital bills.
Right. We sure got a windfall. This is a total jackpot.
Many who win a jackpot end up beggars. Besides, boarding isn't easy.
Cook, clean and doing the laundry for a stranger. It's not easy.
Right. You promised him to offer services of five-star hotels. Who'd do that?
Me? Or you who have never even washed a rag since we left Bali?
It'll work out somehow. We have an expert housewife with us.
If we have many customers, it'd be hard to even cook dinner for you two.
I don't think I can.
If you thought I'd do it, you made a mistake.
Forget it then. I'll do it. I will!
Mother. Should I quit the restaurant and work as a housekeeper here?
No way. We survive on your salary from your mother.
We'll take care of the cleaning and laundry.
-So how about just cooking for him? -He wanted five-star hotel level meals.
I've never even been to a hotel so how could I?
She should've discussed it with me before she signed.
I'd appreciate your cooperation. Please help me move in by Sunday.
Don't worry. See you tomorrow.
What's the reason?
You could get a lot better place with that money.
So why'd you even fix our house and move in?
I can fix it to my taste and it's cheap.
For you, you get good money. Isn't it a win-win?
I just feel like we're the only one benefiting from this.
-Who'd pay $1,500 a month for a room? -Your mother-in-law promised me.
She said she'd provide a perfect service worth $1,500.
If you do as I requested, you might think $1,500 isn't even enough.
What do you mean?
Will you ask me to provide hotel meals everyday with that $1,500?
If the hotel food is delicious and healthy, yes.
-Cleaning and laundry should also be... -Why don't you just at the hotel?
Instead of wanting a hotel level service in this neighborhood?
Not just a month. I don't want to waste over $10k on the hotel stay for two years.
How much?
Compared to that, your boarding house isn't that expensive.
So don't doubt my motive and just accept it please.
Oh... Didn't you lose a ring?
I picked up a gold ring in front of the company yesterday.
I was wondering if it might be yours.
Where's my ring? I can't lose that.
I think I left it at my hotel. I'll give it to you tomorrow.
Why does he have my ring? Did he see me protesting?
Meet him just twice more.
Grandma.
You must've figured him out if you've already met him.
It'll do you good to have him as a brother or a boss.
If you still don't like him after two meetings, I won't stop you then.
Meeting him won't change my mind, Grandma.
I guess he's not ready, Mother. If he's not ready, it could only backfire, Mother.
What? Are you opposing my idea too?
I realized I get nothing out of it if I force him things.
Not like VP Kang will leave CE soon so please wait until he changes his mind.
Are you saying that when I'm begging him to meet VP Kang just two times?
I didn't mean that.
Sukhyun.
Fine. I'll meet him just two more times.
You can't force things on people but I must know the reason.
You can't just say no. You're not a little kid.
-Yes, Ms. Chair. -You're not sleeping, are you?
-No, I'm not. -How was my grandson today?
We just met briefly.
How about eating lunch with him for two days? At the same restaurant.
Lunch?
He's insisting to stay at Strategy & Planning all of sudden.
Alright. I'll find out why he changed his mind.
Thank you.
Where is that ring?
This isn't right!
Isn't it so nice to eat all together?
When you weren't here, we all ate by ourselves.
I thought we might even forget each other's face.
-You're exaggerating. -No, she's not.
Did we ever eat breakfast like this when she wasn't here?
I have no memory of it.
What's the use of setting the table? You two never came down.
You both didn't say a word so why'd we invite upset stomach in the morning?
You know what is the best menu on the table?
Hunger? They say it's the best recipe.
That's one of them but it's smile.
You mean this smile?
My last homework on this earth isn't to grow the company or live long.
But to have all of you have meals together with smiles.
I can't believe it's more difficult than making a subdivision success...
You should finish, Mother.
Working hard is good but you should mediate on the saying...
..."When the family's happy, all goes well."
I feel like getting upset stomach too so I'm gonna get up.
What Grandma just said... "When the family's happy, all goes well."
But it's impossible since you always think about getting rid of me.
I heard something peculiar from Mikwang Bank.
A big corporation using its bank to oppress weaker people.
You think I keep quiet because I don't know anything?
I just turn blind eyes for your sake.
No, you don't.
Clean management. You know she emphasizes this to employees, right?
What would Grandma say when she finds out what you're doing?
Did you make some mistake? That sounded like a threat.
Does that fox has something on you?
Can't you knock?
Be careful not to startle your grandma.
You know high BP patients are like breakable glass, don't you?
We all have to watch our words and actions.
I was worried since you didn't even finish your meal.
Is your BP alright?
Don't worry about me and go to work, Ihyun.
Be humble the higher you go up.
I told your mom but remember to always abide by the principle.
Take a narrow path and no more expedient methods.
Don't worry, Mother.
People compliment on how well she manages the vendors,
stores and the bank accounts.
If she succeeds the Margot contract, you should give her a big gift.
I'm already thinking about it so work hard.
You can look forward to a biggest gift I can give to my granddaughter.
I'm more curious now. What do you have in store for her?
Can't you give us a hint?
Enough for today. Go to work, all of you.
What? Boarding house?
He said it's cheap compared to hotels. But I don't get why he's doing this.
Regardless, thank goodness you rented a room.
You better make it clear to your mother-in-law.
Tell her to take charge of caring for him.
Hello?
This is Mikwang Bank. Is this Ms. Sowon Han?
Yes, this is she. What is this about?
I called to inform you that loan extension is impossible.
Impossible? What do you mean?
Loan extension is impossible? You told me a few days ago that I can.
Well, it's... I'm not sure why but I got an order from upper management.
Order? Is that your excuse?
I've never been late on my payments. How could you do this all of a sudden?
You should find a way to pay back the principle instead.
If you don't pay it back by the due date, your house can be put up for an auction.
What?
You know my situation already. How could I get $50,000 in two weeks?
Your due date is soon so you should find a way to pay it back with your family.
Sir!
If it weren't for that woman, I wouldn't have missed the appointment.
Look again. Do you see the woman that I just described to you?
No. Just come. If you miss today too, I'll get fired too.
She's really not there?
A loud woman obnoxiously dressed in 70's and 80's fashion.
There is a boorish lady but she's not dressed up like 70's or 80's.
-Really? She's really not there, right? -Darn. How many times should I repeat?
Just come now. They're all waiting for you.
Alright. Almost there so wait.
What in the...
I thought big eyes are all brave but that burning eye's such a chicken.
What did you just say? Burning eyes?
What's with you, missus?
Dang, I wasn't meant to be an underwear model.
I've got ya. Come here before I smack you.
Would you go if you were me?
-Hey you, stop! -What do I do, Billy!
Billy?
<-Dawon, help me. I'm dead. -What is going on?>
So you refuse to give me his phone number, is that it?
He keeps texting me not to give you his number so how could I?
Fine, then let's spend the night here.
Why would I, missus?
Missus? Who are you calling a 'missus'?
You certainly ain't a miss.
I'm busy with a photo shoot.
What are you doing with my phone?
See? That's my number. I'll let you see your Billy so let's just go, alright!
If Bali Billy still doesn't show up, I'll bombard your phone.
Bomb it or burn it, do as you like! Missus!
I'm not a missus!
How did it go, Dawon? You didn't tell her my number, did you?
-If you did, I'm dead. -Gyunwoo.
You sent her back, right? You didn't give her my number, did you?
Move! I might miss my photo shoot too. I'll never introduce you to a job anymore.
Awesome. You could even run in underwear.
I wish I can meet a goddess like her.
I told you I'm not having an affair.
I know what you're thinking but I'm a single.
Why do you make a single man an adulterer?
-Single? Really? -Yes.
Then you don't care if your wife shows up?
I told you I'm not married. I don't have a wife. Young, free and single.
Really?
This is Billy's.
Mister.
Really?
You little rat. I'll finish you for good.
Don't have a wife? Why you hiding then?
I'm not interested in older women.
A fresh single to that old woman? Dang.
Boss.
-Good news. -Did Sowon call?
No, I guess Margot found out about Taesong's knockoff incident.
They'll give us all the times we need after 3 p.m. on 30th.
We'll have a higher rate of success.
Alright. Leave.
Pardon? Oh, yes.
Haeran will shut her mouth for a while.
All I need to do is to make Sowon give up.
Our Chief said he'll go home straight from a meeting.
Nothing will change from waiting here.
Margot will give Ihyun the full schedule after 3.
-I've heard. -You still don't care who wins?
I wish Ihyun wins so that I never have to see Sowon anymore.
If the new VP knows Sowon, I also want Sowon to disappear.
Then will you cooperate with Ihyun?
I should take time though. Besides, Ihyun won't ask for my help anytime soon.
Someone sent this for you via a messenger.
Okay.
Leave.
Yes.
Why are you so happy?
I've asked for a thorough background check on Jinhee Kang.
Divorced with Suhjin Choi in 2010.
Is that why he didn't work for five years?
Suhjin Choi, a food stylist graduated from Le Cordon Bleu.
No children.
Except for that, no special private life info.
How did Jinhee become an acquaintance with Hyunwoo Jang?
Korea and the US. They've lived world apart.
That little rat. He's dead when I see him tomorrow.
When did you go out? I thought you were in your room.
-You looked for me? -Yes. Have a seat.
Yes.
About Ihyun.
- What about her?
Is she dating someone?
I heard she was dating Moojin Group's grandson last year.
They broke up long time ago. She has no one now.
She's so into work that she's not interested in dating.
-Are you sure she has no one? -Yes. You have someone in mind?
I'm observing someone for her.
Observing someone? Who is he?
Not sure if they'll get along.
I'll tell you later after I decide if they'd be a good match.
I heard from Chef that you quit.
Thanks for everything.
Did you get a job?
Yes. Thanks to you.
That's great. They still hire an old guy like you?
I know. I'm thankful.
Waiting for someone?
I'm being stood up for one hour now.
That's shocking.
Why the heck did they change their mind when they promised to extend the loan?
They said the policy changed. They keep repeating that excuse.
The manager is not even meeting her.
Her house will be auctioned if she doesn't pay off $50,000 by the due date.
Doesn't have a mortgage loan too? What if she loses her house?
She should've severed ties with that family long time ago.
Ms. In-law! You've heard from Sowon, didn't you?
They remodeled the room just a half day but it looks like new.
It's like that Love House on TV.
Where did Sowon go? Delivery?
We wish.
She went to the bank after hearing from the bank that they won't extend the loan.
What do you mean they won't?
If she doesn't pay $50,000 loan by this month, the bank will take her house.
What? Take her house?
What do I do now?
How we've worked to buy that house...
I might lose that house because of $50,000.
What should I do?
Say something, Hyunwoo.
I've got no one to help me.
I can't hold out alone anymore.
-Don't you owe me something? -Did you come here to hear my apology?
No, I wanted to hear why you don't want to come to Management Support.
-Why? You think I'll give you a hard time? -No. Not like I'll be bothered by anyone.
You'll be bothered by me so you should just give up.
I also don't get bothered by people.
If you don't want to work, I'll let you bum around. So come.
If you're not gonna show up tomorrow, call in advance.
I don't want to waste my time.
You like motorcycle?
You should ride it when you can control your emotions.
If you don't want steel nails in your legs like me, don't go crazy with speed.
Bye.
What are you doing here? I heard you'll be boarding at Sowon's house.
Is Sowon here?
-Why do you look for her? -Please give this to her.
This is...
She lost this but I picked it up.
Why did you bring this darn thing? I wanted to throw this in the trash.
You wear this darn thing on your neck as if it's your lucky charm!
Give it to me, Mom.
Mom!
Get ready to greet the new VP of Management Support, Ihyun.
-You think she'll make him a CEO? -Maybe after marrying him to Ihyun.
-Sowon Han? The CE Group asked us to... -The CE Group pressures the bank?
-Did CE Group pressure Mikwang Bank? -We should get rid of Sowon Han first.
Should I meet Sowon?
Is this the restaurant where Sowon Han works?
Give it to me, Mom.
Mom!
