Excuse me.
-Could you find this man, please? -Yes, sure.
Why are there so many people who are on a blind date?
Is this man going to be the love of my life, or not?
Let's see how my fortune goes today.
-Excuse me, please come this way. -Okay!
Is this man the love of my life?
Or not?
Let's see how my fortune goes today.
Is this man I'm going to see the love of my life?
Or not?
Is he?
Or not?
Is he? Well, no.
Is he the love of my life?
Ma'am, your seat is here.
You are here early.
I left early in case of bad traffic, but it was only a worry.
I see.
This lawyer guy looks like an actor and his voice is amazing too.
This is the year I'm getting married.
My name is Joon-sik Kim.
It's 7:00 p.m., I'm on time.
You are.
I had heard that you are arrogant, sharp,
and always late a few hours.
So I came prepared.
Maybe it was only a rumor.
No, you heard it right.
But the person who set up this appointment is
someone I look up to. That's why I'm on time today.
To be honest,
I hesitated to show up today.
I'm the eldest grandson and the sole heir in five generations
with a grandmother and a widowed father to take care of.
I understand your hesitation.
That's not true.
I'm fine with that you're the eldest grandson of family.
I'm fine that you have a grandmother and a widowed father.
The sole heir in five generations? That's okay too.
My fortuneteller told me I'll have four sons during my lifetime.
What bothered me was...
Young-joo Seo.
I know her a little.
Rumor says that the reason she called off her engagement is
because of you.
I even heard that you two are getting back together soon.
You were right about my bad manners,
but you are all wrong about the rumors.
I don't know why she called off her engagement.
I wouldn't be sitting here if we are getting back together.
-Thank you. -My pleasure.
-Please help yourself. -All right.
This is my 100th blind date.
This is your 100th?
You have such a good demeanor with a great job.
I know. Maybe you are quite picky.
No, it's not that I'm picky.
I have another... issue.
You need to live with your parents? I can do that.
It's not because of that. I'm the youngest son.
Well, the youngest son can take care of his parents too.
Well then...
Is it that you are deeply in debt?
No.
I'm not sure what kind of issue you have,
but I'm more understanding than I look.
My issue is...
Are you divorced?
Or do you have kids?
What else could it be?
It is my dream to become a Buddhist monk.
Yes, we all have freedom of religion...
Excuse me?
Become a monk?
What? Wait.
Not everyone has their dream come true.
My father wanted to become a chef of French cuisine.
But he owns a seolleongtang place now.
Becoming a doctor wasn't my dream either.
I had to make so many excuses to avoid marriage.
I should tell the elders about my dream.
It is time to stop troubling others.
Especially...
I want to apologize to you, Geum-hee.
You seem so genuine and kind.
Okay, I see.
For you to meet your man and live a happy life,
I'll work my way and offer you a Buddhist prayer when I become a monk.
You are
the man of my life. You can't do this to me.
Is it a big issue to hold 10 or 20 memorial services a year?
We can always hire professional caterers for the services.
We can always hire baby sitters for each baby, no matter how many we have.
That's what you meant when you said you're fine with the eldest grandson,
his grandmother, and widowed father?
Yes.
We can hire someone who can take care of the elders.
As long as I'm being polite with a smile on my face,
there shouldn't be any problems, right?
Oh! How about we open our gallery, a traditional Korean cuisine restaurant,
or traditional wedding hall at your Head House?
Working and doing house chores at home will do good.
Once people hear about you run a business--
Those ideas about running a business at my Head House.
It's such a cliché, don't you think?
Besides, who said that having elders mean that you have to be stuck
at home and take care of them alone?
I was determined to become a man with manners today,
but I guess today is not the day.
Let's say that we had to part early.
due to my emergency call from hospital.
Wait, watch your manners.
Don't say that.
It is my fault to show up here with expectation.
It is also your fault to deicide to see a man with unpleasing rumors.
We are both at fault. Let's talk it out and move on.
Now please excuse me.
Hey!
The door is closing.
This is not good.
Both my job interview and blind date didn't go well.
What are you going to do now?
Your sigh is not strong enough to stop this elevator.
Oh? Why are you here?
What do you mean?
Do you have any specific reason that I shouldn't be here?
No, I didn't mean that.
What was that deep sigh about?
You just got dumped at a blind date, didn't you?
No, I swear I didn't get dumped.
It's on your face though.
Don't waste your time and get dumped at a blind date.
Find someone who is near you.
Whatever.
For ten years now, a very good man has been sincerely...
Never mind.
By the way,
why do you keep talking down to me?
I don't see why I can't.
I am older than you are.
I graduated your university three years earlier than you did.
Your close friend for ten years, Gun-woo Oh, is my brother.
Do you need more reasons?
What?
Gun-woo doesn't have an elder brother.
He is the eldest...
Oh, dear!
Is Chairman Hyun-myung Kim your father?
That's why you were at my job interview.
Then is Gye-hyang Park your grandmother?
Why are you so interested in my family?
I can't help it.
They are so famous that it is impossible to not know them.
It's not like I have personal interest.
Do you really want to work at my hospital?
Sincerely?
Of course, I do. That's why I turned in my job application.
Then why did you answer to the interviewer's question
like that then?
What do you mean?
Please explain what was so wrong about my answer.
I can't even guess.
Hold on. Does it mean that I didn't make it?
-Well. -What's with that vague answer?
Were you at the job interview as the son of the chairman?
Or are you a doctor yourself too?
Maybe not. You're afraid of acupuncture.
Let me make this clear. I'm not afraid of acupuncture.
I just don't like it.
You just don't like bugs either, not that you are afraid of them.
Exactly!
Look, don't you have anything that you just don't like?
I just don't like people who are arrogant and impolite.
You will never dislike me then.
I'm at the Department of Neurosurgery.
Neurosurgery?
Wait, the necklace!
This... Here!
Wait.
Take this, hey!
THIRD GENERATION SEOLLEONGTANG
-Hello. -Hi.
-It's good to see you all. -Welcome.
-Long time no see. -Hello.
How did Geum-hee's job interview go?
-Did she ace it? -Of course she did.
I guess she is not home yet?
I came to hear how our Geum-hee's blind date went.
Our Geum-hee?
We can say she is ours, but you can't. How dare you say that?
You're such a sneaky bastard.
Don't you think so, Mom?
Calling anyone a bastard,
and calling your sister a wench. Watch your language.
Both Gun-woo and Geum-hee are younger than me.
Should I say,
"Sir, you're such a sneaky gentleman." or something like that?
You should go to your room if you want to keep making a fuss.
My family is never on my side.
You always corner me! Don't invite me then.
-Gosh. -Well.
I'm home!
-Hello. -Oh, right. Hi.
When did you come over, my dear friend?
A little while ago.
I came over to see how my friend's blind date went today.
Did you like him?
Yes, I liked him a lot.
But...
What? Did you get dumped?
No. It's not like that.
He is becoming a Buddhist monk to make his dream come true.
What?
Become a Buddhist monk?
You mean he is going to shave and live at the temple?
Is he right?
When I saw you leaving today,
I hazily heard the sound of a Buddhist prayer from your back.
Man-jae!
That guy must be out of his mind. What was he thinking?
Then why did he show up to see you today?
That's what I'm saying.
Anyway, it was not a happy ending.
Mom, it wasn't me who ruined it this time.
How did the job interview go?
Well, I gave my best answers. All I can do is just wait.
Oh, right. Dad!
I bumped into that clumsy guy.
What clumsy guy?
That jobless guy we met at Mount Sikjang.
Did you really? Where?
I saw him at the hospital and at the hotel too.
In fact, he wasn't jobless. He is a neurosurgeon.
Wait, at the hotel?
Did you just say that you saw him at the hotel?
Please. What are you guys thinking?
I bumped into him when I was leaving the hotel after my blind date.
Do I know him?
Oh, right.
He was the same person who made you as his foster brother.
What a small world.
How do you know Sung-joon?
Wait.
Does it mean that he is Yoogyeong Hospital Director's son?
That's right.
We saw him while hiking.
He was hurt from a fall when he was climbing down the mountain.
It was a close call. We saved him.
Oh, I see. What a coincidence.
Yes. He is a good man. He is the savior of my life.
I see.
Now I see how it goes.
That's all.
I don't know anything anymore now.
What the hell are they talking about?
Do you know anything? Did I make it or not?
That clumsy guy gave me such a vague answer.
Hey, don't worry. It'll be their loss if they don't hire you.
It'll be their mistake not noticing a talented person.
My friend,
if I didn't have you in my life,
my life would have sucked.
Do you really think so?
I do.
The problem is
that I can't think straight when I'm with you.
What? Why?
Because you always take a good care of me.
I keep relying on you and go out of control.
Then I have no choice.
I should be responsible for making you like that.
Geum-hee,
let's get married. Should we start dating first?
I'm so sorry. My bad.
Hey.
We've been like a family for ten years, and now you want to start what?
Oh, dear.
Hey, if people wouldn't mind,
I could even take a bath with you.
Hey, Geum-hee Hwang.
I'm male and you're female. How is that possible?
Do you see me as a woman?
Yes, yes! I mean it!
You sound really serious. I almost believed it.
I'm not kidding. I'm serious!
Don't ever go on a blind date. I don't like it when you see another guy,
eat out, and have a cup of tea with such a smile on your face.
I hate it.
Hey, friend.
I had no idea that you were such a jealous guy.
What do you feel?
Your heart is pounding.
Hey, you.
Your pulse is beating fast.
Are you sick?
I think I am.
Otherwise,
my heart wouldn't be pounding for you
whom I've known for ten years already.
That's right, I must be sick.
You're being dramatic.
You even sound like a player.
Why are you still single?
Come on! Goodness!
It's cold. Let's get back in.
Oh dear.
Geum-hee Hwang.
Why do I like you so much?
I have good news.
I have a very close historian friend.
He said that he saw an old book similar to Yoogyeong Cuisine Book in China.
What?
Don't be so surprised.
That must have been his mistake.
Yoogyeong Cuisine Book is
a family treasure that was completed throughout generations.
It is one and only.
There can't be another one.
Please, sir.
Please make sure of that.
Yes, I already made a move.
I asked around if there's any connection between those books.
What are you implying though?
My mother-in-law...
once told me that there might be a copy of our cuisine book somewhere.
Oh, really?
Yes.
If that book in China is the copy,
maybe I will be able to restore and complete Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
What? That's new to hear.
I will explain in time.
All right.
Oh,
you will be choosing your apprentice from a public competition.
How are senior family members reacting to your idea?
On the day when the news was issued, I had phone calls without a break.
Chairman is more against the idea.
Once the book is widely known,
it will contribute to promote people's health, right?
Yes, of course.
That's what the book is for.
When I told you that I was moving to the States,
I was a man with absolutely nothing.
Without your pocket money that you gave me to help me,
INH wouldn't exist today.
Please remember
that half of my company also belongs to you.
Anyway, let me persuade the other family members to support your idea.
Where did I put my necklace?
There were moments that I made you laugh.
There were moments that I made you happy.
Please stop pushing me away.
Think about the good old days for once.
Dad,
do you even know how to cook porridge?
Welcome, princess.
Oh, Geez.
Please taste everything,
and help yourself.
If you keep skipping meals, you'll pass out, princess.
Don't worry about it.
Dad, you need to consider TPO when it comes to food too.
I have no appetite now.
Let me get some rest.
Young-joo, Young-joo. Hold on!
Young-joo! Oh, dear.
This is no good.
What?
-Hey, Mr. Kang. -Yes, sir.
Come here.
What was the word again?
TP... something. What is it?
You mean TPO.
It's an abbreviation for Time, Place and Occasion.
It means you need to consider those three conditions accordingly.
Oh, time and place!
Hey.
Were you just mocking me?
I wasn't, sir.
Yes, you were!
No, I wasn't. It's my face.
-Yes, you were mocking me. -I swear I wasn't.
-You were. -I wasn't.
-I'm serious! -Come here!
-Wait. Stay there! -Gosh.
He is as fast as a rat.
Why is he still working here? Drives me crazy.
Hey, you. Come here.
Yes, sir.
TPO.
It indicates time, place, and occasion.
My daughter is not in the mood for that.
Oh, well.
A little bit more.
Here.
TPO, right.
When your TPO is good, please hire me again. TPO.
Are you mocking me too?
Sorry? I'm not. I was just...
-You may leave now. -Sorry?
Get out of here, you bastard.
You just lost it, dumb ass.
-Whatever! -How come...
You guys are show-offs.
Gosh. Such miserable creatures.
Dumb ass.
Oh, dear.
I'm sorry, Dad.
I'm sorry to worry you.
You're shortening my lifespan.
I understand your TPO, but you still need to eat.
I'm still a patient.
I can't digest that heavy food yet.
Hey, Jin-mi sent us
such fancy pack of kimchi. It's called Empress Kimchi, I think.
It's for you. Let's go to the kitchen. Please? Come on.
Dad, stop being so timid.
Be yourself.
I'm talking about you and Jin-mi.
How did you know?
Of course I know. You never hid it.
You should step up before someone else takes it.
Just make your move.
Is there someone else?
Chairman Hyun-myung Kim and Jin-mi.
There were always rumors about them.
Have you not heard?
Mr. Kim?
They have a history together since they were young.
I guess their families have arranged their marriage long time ago.
So what!
Does he think he can marry her using childhood memories or something?
Calm down, Dad.
It's only a rumor.
Whatever the truth is,
tell people stop gossiping.
I, Don-man Seo, am a man who never gives up like a dog.
People used to call me a dog.
I'll never let my Jin-mi be with someone else other than me!
Everyone, gather up!
Mom, Dad. Hurry up!
Today's breakfast is some healing food cooked by Geum-hee Hwang.
Please feel comfortable.
Just find your name on the table and enjoy the food prepared for you.
-All right. -Is this your healing food?
Medicinal Herb with Mussel Boiled in Soy Sauce for Alex
Sweet Pumpkin Braised Ribs with Foxglove for Man-jae
Powdered Medicine Tuckahoe Salad for Yoon-ee
Watershield Omija Fruit Salad for Sook-ja
Sook-ja, how do you like it? It's good, right?
Geum-hee.
These foods might heal diseases,
but they taste awful.
I would rather get sick.
Tomorrow early in the morning,
I need to go to Mount Sikjang.
Your cook is like art.
-It's quite avant-garde. -Avant-garde?
No way, this is awful.
Mom!
Please come and taste my food, please?
Come on. Don't you know your mom is on another level?
Her sense of cooking is perfect.
She doesn't even need to check the taste of her food while cooking.
It's amazing to see her cooking. How could she cook without tasting?
That's why she is my master.
It smells bad enough already.
I won't say anything about the effects of the ingredients,
but no matter how healthy it is,
the food has to be edible, don't you think?
Food should taste good even if it is good for your body.
I'm quite recognized for tasting what others make,
but how come I'm so terrible with my own food?
What is wrong with me?
How do you like my food, Dad?
You still have to have
three healing food a day made by me though.
Be prepared, honey.
Her food will taste heavenly.
Geum-hee.
In my opinion,
I think you put too much medicinal herb.
I'm just saying.
Healing food is meant to be a medicine.
Adding medicinal herbs are crucial.
Here's what I think.
All seasonal food on the earth...
is healthy.
It means seasonal food is a good medicine already.
Maybe you can add other ingredients and cut down the use of medicinal herbs.
But this is only my opinion.
Is this food that bad?
It is.
-What should I do now? -What do you mean?
You cooked for us and they're all good for our health.
I should be grateful for the food.
Thank you, Dr. Hwang.
Oh, dear.
GATE OF VIRTUE
I've brought some of your favorite traditional sweets.
I made some for Hyun-myung and Sung-joon separately.
This is all yours.
I'm not sure if it's safe to eat your food though.
Sorry?
What do you mean?
What's your business here?
Your annual charity event.
It is to help the poor
and enjoy with our community. It is quite a meaningful event.
I want to be a part of the event too.
I have some kimchi I can send to nursing homes and child care centers.
I want to be in charge of food for the event.
What do you think?
You don't have to. You're busy.
My mother-in-law has passed away not so long ago.
This year's event will be held solemnly.
We can give away my white kimchi as a free gift set.
You used to like my white kimchi.
Although it wasn't as good as San-hae's dongchimi.
Jin-mi.
Yes.
Do you remember when Hyun-myung's father pass away?
Of course. I still remember vividly since it was shocking.
Do you?
Do you really think
that the person who put the persimmon and honey in the food was San-hae?
I want to believe that it wasn't her.
But there was clear evidence.
You mean this one?
So you think
this hairpin is enough to prove that San-hae was the one, right?
Why are you talking about this now?
With her last breath,
my mother-in-law said that it wasn't San-hae who did that.
Then who else?
Jin-mi.
Yes.
Do you really think
that you deserve Hyun-myung?
Please tell me what you don't like about me.
I will fix it.
You may leave now.
And try not to visit my place from now on.
Master Park, why do you keep pushing me away?
I hope that there's a room for conscience in your heart.
Master Park! Please!
Maybe she knows...
No way.
No, that's not possible.
CHANSOL BIO RESEARCH LAB
You are here.
How are you feeling?
You could've had more days off.
I told you that I would be in charge regarding INH cooperation.
All right, Young-joo.
I mean, Ms. Seo.
I have faith in you, Ms. Seo.
Our company will put more efforts on lactic acid bacteria and nutrients.
We can make medicinal kimchi
by adding one or two kinds of medicinal herbs.
That might do good for our brand image.
All right. Health is everyone's concern around the globe, right?
This conversation makes me feel so much better.
I'm here.
-Mr. Seo. -Don-man Seo.
I'm sure you were worried about Young-joo.
I told her to have more days off, but she is here.
I'm so worried about her. I will leave you two alone.
Wait, wait.
No, no.
Today, I'm here
to see you, Jin-mi.
It'll be great if we can talk alone.
I see, but I'm in the middle of something.
I've got so much work to do now due to my days off.
You two can go ahead and talk instead.
-Follow me, please. -All right.
Thank you.
Please have a seat.
I'll be straightforward here, Jin-mi.
What is your relationship with Chairman Hyun-myung Kim?
I've heard some rumors.
You know that I grew up at his place when I was a kid.
Yes, I know you two were like a family.
That's all.
We're both single and very close to each other.
That's why they like to gossip about it.
Right? You guys are not dating, right?
Of course not.
Jin-mi, my heart dropped when I heard your rumor with him
and I almost cried.
I'm not being snobbish here,
but you know that it was only possible for you to build up your career
up to this point today was because of my full support, right?
Of course, I know. Without your support, I could not have made it this far.
Jin-mi,
you know that I like you, right?
This is my workplace.
I know how much you think of me.
Then please accept my love to you.
Why are you giving me such a hard time?
We've had great friendship together until now,
and we always will too.
No. As soon as Young-joo finds the right person for her,
I'll marry you, Jin-mi.
Excuse me?
We look great together.
Jin-mi,
marry me.
This is a two-carat diamond ring.
Please.
This is amazing.
You are so much in a hurry, Mr. Seo.
Let's marry Young-joo off first.
Once we sign a contract with INH
and make Chansol Foods become industry's number one,
we will talk about this again. Please?
We?
I like that word.
Our Jin-mi? I like how it sounds.
We, we.
That's right.
Once Young-joo gets married and you sign a contract with INH,
you're marrying me, Jin-mi. Right?
It will be never too late to talk about it later.
Why don't we?
All right.
By all means, I'm going to make Young-joo and Sung-joon's marriage happen
and help you sign a contract with INH.
And then, I'll make Chansol Foods become the top of this industry.
Please wait until then, Jin-mi.
What did you want to hear? What are you so curious about?
Bastard.
That idiot.
You have kimchi in front of you.
They are all napa cabbage kimchi
but made with different kinds of salt-fermented seafood.
You need to guess the right kind of salt-fermented seafood used.
That's the mission of the day.
-Understood? -Yes, ma'am!
Bo-ram,
pick any kimchi and give it to him.
-Go Alex! -Okay!
-Salt-fermented baby shrimp! -Wow, bravo, Alex!
Correct. Well done, Alex.
Bo-ram.
Don't give him a hint, all right?
Now, try next!
Salt-fermented oysters.
-Salt-fermented oysters! -Well done!
-Let's go! -Come on!
Stop cheating, okay?
-Bo-ram, why did you give him a hint? -What a headache you are, Alex.
We'd better send him back home.
It was chewy and tough. And the aftertaste had
-unique smell. -Right.
-Salt-fermented small octopus. -Hey.
-Its texture is a bit rough, -Go on.
but it tastes rich as you chew more.
-Hurry, hurry! -Well.
-Salt-fermented-- -Branchia!
-And? -Similar to salt-fermented baby shrimp,
-but much lighter. -Yes, keep going.
-And this is very tasty. -Yes.
-Salt-fermented toha shrimp. -Good!
-I got it. -Well done!
He already knew how to tell those kinds apart from one another.
When they welcomed a new queen during Shilla Dynasty,
salt-fermented seafood was on the list of wedding gifts.
It implies that salt-fermented seafood was a gourmet food.
Depending on what kind of salt-fermented seafood you're adding
to your kimchi, it tastes different.
Keep that in mind, all right?
Let me see.
Oh, dear.
INVITATION: GYE-HYANG PARK'S HEAD HOUSE CHARITY EVENT
Gosh.
Right, the charity event.
I totally forgot about this.
Mom!
Mom, Mom!
Look at this.
What is it?
It's an invitation for Gye-Hyang Park's Head House charity event.
She sent one to me too.
What?
This is awesome, right?
But I can't just go empty-handed.
So I'd like to bring some food.
Help me, Mom.
I don't understand why this keeps happening to me.
Why do I keep getting involved with that Head House?
No, I can't help.
If you really want to go, you should prepare the food yourself.
Mom.
Besides,
you just got a new job few days ago. You can't have a day off this soon.
Don't attend that event!
She becomes so sensitive whenever I mention that Head House.
Alex, let's go to the market with me.
Why?
You need to buy ingredients if you want to cook.
-We'll be back soon. -See you soon.
-See you.
Let's get back in.
Hello, Ms. Kim.
You are the one from the States, right?
Welcome.
Do you do delivery too?
I need seolleongtang for 500 people.
Since it's delivery for too many, you can charge me a lot.
-Did you say... 500? -For 500 people?
Yes, what's wrong? Can't you do it?
I owe you a lot. I'm here to repay the favor.
I might feel guilty to eat your delicious seolleongtang by myself.
I'd like to share with a lot of people.
I appreciate your good intention to sell our food to a lot of people.
However, other people who come here to eat will end up
making a fruitless trip.
It's not like I'm giving away
great food to people who can easily afford their meals.
I'm inviting people who are lonely and in need of help.
This food will be for those people.
That's why the meal has to be special.
It's a very nice thing to do.
Hello.
Let's do it. It's a good deed.
You must be her husband.
My name is Gab-soo Lee. I have business in the States.
-Nice to meet you. -I'm glad to see you too, sir.
We've met before. I'm Young-chul Hwang.
Yes, we've met.
Is it true that this place
and inside facilities were all designed by you?
Yes. This is a family thatched house site handed from generation to generation.
Just like you have put so much effort and care to your place,
I'm sure you do the same thing to your food.
That's right. I made a long trip to come here.
-I skipped my meals. -Oh, goodness.
Seolleongtang, boiled pork slices, and so on. Let me eat anything.
Sure. Hurry up, honey.
All right.
Oh, wait! I heard
that you have a kimchi cave at your site.
Could you please show me?
-Of course. Follow me. -All right.
That kimchi saving place is famous in the States too.
I'd better take a good look.
He ordered 500 servings of seolleongtang to help the poor.
He is a big spender.
He must be rich.
Maybe he is fond of grandmother, right?
Goodness.
That's the best you can think of?
Yes. You have a problem with that?
You're asking for spanking!
Come on!
Look, you...
Hey, please give me another week.
It's only 30,000 dollars.
You are cornering me too much.
I'm not yelling at you at all. I'm loud, you know.
You were giving me too much pressure.
I swear, yes.
Go, go away.
Yes.
Who said that I was fired?
To join my parents' seolleongtang and kimchi business,
I made a decision to quit, dude.
Even if you save your pay check for ten years,
it's still not enough to pay tuitions.
So why wasting your time at a company?
All right.
No matter what happen next week,
I'm serious, I'll pay back...
Hello?
You just hung up while I was talking?
What the heck!
Hi, Bo-ram.
Are you in trouble again? Did you borrow someone's money?
Geum-ho Hwang, father of Bo-ram Hwang, never borrows
money from anyone else. I'm not that bad.
So my daughter doesn't have to worry.
Just grow up well and healthy, all right?
I take a good care of myself. Don't worry.
How much did you borrow?
Bo-ram.
Let's meet here again later tonight.
I've saved some money.
I have three piggy-banks. You can have them all.
It's only between you and me. Pay your debt with mine.
Don't ever borrow someone else's money ever again.
Dad, let's live a sincere life now.
I age faster than my friends because I worry about you too much.
People keep asking me
if I'm a fourth or fifth grader.
It's because you are mature.
Anyway, to prevent you from looking aged,
shall we think about what to do with our skincare?
Wow!
These are all kimchi?
Yes.
Depending on our customer's health condition and taste preference,
we provide rice and kimchi accordingly.
Wow.
This is so much effort and care!
Are you letting the water go underground like this
to adjust the temperature of the cave,
That's right.
In other words, that underground water works
as a cooler that optimizes the temperature.
-I see. -We don't need a fridge.
That means this cave is an original kimchi fridge.
Making kimchi well is important,
but keeping it under the best temperature is also
the key to maintaining its taste.
It might make kimchi taste better.
Although this is a business,
I think people who sell food has to think different.
This is impressive.
This is it!
This is it.
It is no doubt that Ms. Kim's food tastes amazing,
but the speed of your fixing food is impressive too.
I'm sure that it takes some time and extra efforts and care
to make seolleongtang,
yet you're really quick. How's that possible?
This kimchi was seasoned by salt, not with salt-fermented seafood.
It was marinated in broth that's made out of pork and bones.
You reminded me of North Korean kimchi. So I tried.
It's great that you came at the right time to try this kimchi when it's ripe.
I'm not saying this to praise my wife,
but it is true that she is gifted in cooking.
Please help yourself.
For three generations...
This is beyond description.
It is truly at its best condition.
Please try our kimchi sausage.
In case of your visit, she spent days and nights
to make the best food that you would love.
We kind of helped her too.
By telling her that you will come and visit us someday for sure.
To welcome someone who you might greet someday,
you studied and created new menu.
Wow! You are amazing.
Her food keeps
reminding me of my mother.
Five dollars for this small basket?
Why is it so expensive?
-This apple looks good. -It looks good.
-Good job. -I picked them.
This meat is tender. That is not.
Should we buy them both?
Thank you.
Did she make it?
Geum-hee Hwang made it?
Celebrate it with her whom you secretly liked for ten years. You're being gross.
I finally get to see Geum-hee at the same workplace every day.
It's been a long time. Let me think.
We only worked together
when we were both residents for Professor Park!
Are you that happy?
People might think that you won your girlfriend's hand.
Make sure to educate Golden Bat before her first day at work.
She was very close to ruining her interview.
Did Geum-hee made Dad uncomfortable?
She is like that. By the way, why do you call her Golden Bat?
No, no. Whatever her nickname is, that doesn't matter.
I'm just so happy to have her here at Yoogyeong Hospital.
I look a little dumb, right?
Yes, you look a lot dumb.
Please end your unrequited love of ten years soon. All right?
Thank you, Sung-joon!
Stop it! Please!
How did you find me?
I went to your place.
And I missed sword skills too.
Let me get changed real quick.
-Geum-hee. -Oh, no!
Oh!
Hey, you should've knocked first. You can't just enter all of sudden.
I'm sorry. I did knock, but you didn't say anything.
Your phone is ringing. Here's your phone.
Hey, leave it there and don't turn around.
Does this...
still make us a family?
Are you sure you can go to a bathhouse with me?
Hey! You just jumped in out of nowhere.
It scared the hell out of me.
But seriously, why did you want to see me?
Congratulations.
Congratulations?
Hey!
-I got the job? -Yes!
I made it! Thank you, buddy!
Hey! Wait for me outside.
Geum-hee Hwang, welcome to Yoogyeong Hospital.
Thank you.
We need to have a drink to celebrate this.
Let's throw a party to celebrate with the whole family.
No need.
Anyway, does this mean I have to see that clumsy guy every day?
Clumsy guy?
You know, your brother. Chairman's son.
-At the Department of Neurosurgery. -Oh.
He called you Golden Bat.
You call him clumsy guy?
You two are so cute.
Golden Bat?
That's very childish of him.
He is arrogant and snobbish, isn't he?
He has bad conversation manners, right?
Sung-joon?
He is like that? I don't think so.
I can walk myself!
Damn it.
-Yoon-ee! -Geum-hee!
Who are they? What's going on? Where is Geum-ho going?
I think they are gangsters. They were here two weeks ago.
I'm scared, Geum-hee.
Take this.
Hey, Geum-hee!
Don't kill me!
Come here.
-Stop it. -Please spare me. I'll pay the debt.
You should pay back in time when you borrow someone's money.
Don't tell me you are thinking of declaring bankrupt.
I said I could pay. Give me a few more days,
please.
Five days. Please give me five more days.
-You little! -Don't kill me!
You.
How do we trust you?
If I can't make it in time,
you have my body abandonment memorandum. Do whatever you want with it.
Sell my organs or my eyes. Do what you have to do.
Are you kidding me?
-Screw you. -Please spare me.
He didn't come to his senses yet.
-Put some senses into him! -I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. Please spare me.
-It hurts! -You jerks!
Who the hell is she?
Hey!
This isn't a place for a girl to butt in.
Go away, okay? Just go!
Do you want to die?
You wench!
Who is growling?
Have you seen a tiger growling at a kitten?
What? Who is the tiger and who is the kitten here?
Once Sung-joon's heart comes around,
I'd like to see you two get married soon.
Thank you, Father.
Everything's gone.
All the seolleongtang has been stolen.
They took everything. What do we do?
This old book is
the treasure of our family, Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
She said, "I'll hand this book over to my successor,
who will be fairly decided through a contest."
She really said that.
