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!
Darn it!
Do you want to die?
You wench!
Guys.
It's embarrassing to scuffle with a girl.
Let's just back off, okay?
Hey!
You'd better keep your word!
Let's go.
Geum-hee, are you okay?
Are you out of your mind?
There were a lot of thugs. Why did you jump at them?
Are you hurt?
Geum-ho!
Geum-ho! Geum-ho, are you okay?
Geum-ho.
How can you're so fearless...
-Geum-ho! -Geum-ho!
-Geum-ho! Gosh! -Geum-ho!
Who the hell are they? What promise did you make to them?
What kind of trouble did you cause again?
Stop it. Bo-ram is listening.
Dad.
My Bo-ram.
I'm fine. Stop crying. It's okay.
What happened to your faces?
Some rude customers caused trouble.
Geum-ho and I were trying to kick them away.
Hey, Alex. Here.
Bo-ram, let's go in. I'll tell you some funny stories.
Gun-woo.
What happened?
Some thugs swarmed us,
demanding to serve seolleongtang when it'd already been sold out.
I was trying to get my act together and live life to the fullest.
Then, why are they getting on my nerves?
Seriously!
YOOGYEONG HOSPITAL
I'm sorry for looking like this on my first day at work.
I have no patience with injustice.
I have high expectations of you, Dr. Hwang.
You should do your best considering your reference.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I'll try my best.
EASTERN INTERNAL MEDICINE DR. GEUM-HEE HWANG
Mr. Jae-seong Jeon, please come in.
-Oh, yes. -Please come in.
When did you get your wrist sprained?
Do you still feel pain when you're moving?
Next patient!
-What brought you here? -My neck is...
Ms. Jeong-ja Choi, please come in.
-Hello. -Hello.
Hello.
It's tough, isn't it?
This is what a general hospital is like.
You really don't want to go outside? I want to buy you something delicious.
I'm too busy to think about food.
Let's get some fresh air first
and then eat at the hospital cafeteria.
I have an upset stomach. Can you prick my finger with a needle?
I'm sorry, but please prick my finger.
Please prick my finger.
Ma'am, what's the matter?
I think my stomach hurts after I ate lunch,
so I wanted to prick my finger.
But my eyes are not good enough to see.
I see. Then, please have a seat here.
Yes.
Let me treat you with acupuncture for now.
When your doctor does his afternoon round,
please tell him your symptoms, okay?
Yes.
Thank you.
I don't know why my stomach gets upset so frequently nowadays.
What are you doing?
She has an upset stomach,
so I'm treating her with acupuncture. Is that a problem?
Gun-woo, were you just watching this?
Sung-joon, it's because...
I asked her a favor, sir.
My abdomen hurts so much.
Ma'am, I'll ask a physician to treat you.
Please go back to your ward.
Yes, sir. Thank you.
I'm sorry.
She has terminal stomach cancer, but she doesn't know about it.
Oh, I see.
Dr. Geum-hee Hwang.
Are you here for voluntary work?
You should provide treatment only for your own patients.
Without precise diagnosis,
isn't it too dangerous to treat patients?
Well, I was--
I made a mistake. I apologize.
Nevertheless,
since I'm a doctor,
I won't neglect patients
who ask for my help no matter what happens.
I will continue to do so.
You said she's not stubborn, but she has her own beliefs.
Should I interpret her words and behavior as her beliefs?
Of course, Sung-joon.
You'd better see it as her beliefs as a doctor.
When Geum-hee sees a patient while she's eating,
she just starts to run even throwing away her spoon.
Please try to understand her. I'm asking you.
I should go, Sung-joon.
Darn it.
A belief as a doctor or affection towards patients are all great and all,
but keep within bounds, Geum-hee Hwang.
What?
You won't neglect patients who ask for your help?
That's very like you, Golden Bat.
By the way, where were you in the morning?
Are you allowed to go outside during your office hours?
Oh, I was out for other patients.
Out for other patients?
Yes, we personally visit VIP patients sometimes.
You know, we have the VIP ward and the VIP healthcare center.
They have their own world even inside a hospital.
It's a far cry from my world.
-Sung-joon! Here! -Okay.
Have a seat.
When you see a person, you should at least say hello.
We saw each other and talked earlier.
Why should I greet you again?
It doesn't hurt anyone to greet often.
Then, you should--
You should've said hello first, Dr. Kim.
Why are you asking me to greet you first?
Unlike water running down,
greetings should start from beneath, right?
I learned that everyone should practice good manners.
Excuse me. My stomach is getting upset.
If you keep growling at each other,
I would feel so awkward between the two of you.
Who is growling?
Have you seen a tiger growling at a kitten?
What? Who is the tiger and who is the kitten here?
Whether you're a tiger or a kitten, does it matter?
Exchanging basic greetings is enough.
How closer to you do you want me to become?
Should we start dating, then?
What are you talking about?
Geum-hee, can't you just get along with him like you do with me?
He's completely different from you.
You've been like my real brother for the past ten years.
You're like family.
Wait.
Geum-hee, are you now accepting my marriage proposal?
Darn. My stomach is so upset that I can't eat anymore.
Please sit and finish your meal. I'm done.
Problem solved, right?
Please understand.
She had too many patients on her first day of work.
She's just tired.
Sung-joon, I should get going first. I'm sorry.
Hello.
Where is the operating room here?
It's on the third floor.
By any chance,
are you the one who told me the operating room is on the third floor?
You're right.
We didn't meet in the mountain for the first time.
Goodbye.
Yes.
I'm here.
Welcome.
-Let's sit over there. -Okay.
Are you feeling much better?
I'm sorry
for making you worried.
I'm glad that you've recovered well
enough for you to meet me like this.
However, you shouldn't try something
like that again.
I just wanted to show my sincerity and clear up the misunderstanding.
When it didn't go well, I became desperate.
That's fine.
I understand what you're saying
and the misunderstanding I had has been resolved.
-But Sung-joon is yet-- -As you know,
it takes time for Sung-joon to open or close his heart.
Wait a little longer. Time heals everything, right?
Father.
Well, do you not want me to call you father?
That's fine. I like it.
All right.
About the charity event,
could you let me manage the event?
Since it's your family tradition for generations,
I'd like to take charge of it and learn a lot through it.
The number of daily visitors will be
around 700 to 800. Do you think you can handle that?
Sure, I can.
Then, discuss it with the current manager.
Oh. You mean, Ms. Jin-mi Choi?
That's right.
I don't think she'll take charge of this event.
First of all, Master Park doesn't want her.
She probably can't either because my father may misunderstand her.
What do you mean?
You know that my father and Ms. Choi are very close, right?
Well, I heard your late mother
and Ms. Choi were friends.
Yes.
Then, my father was widowed
and Ms. Choi is still single.
They're very close like best friends.
But my father has a slight obsession.
I shouldn't have brought this up.
Father.
I have one more favor to ask.
Okay.
When I was hospitalized, I realized that hospital meals are very important.
I'd like to improve Yoogyeong Hospital's menu.
How would you do that on your own?
Once the nutritionists and cooks learn better,
don't you think the change will come naturally?
I'd like to give a lecture to them once a week.
Please allow me to do that.
Okay, you can.
You should come more often and see Sung-joon.
Once Sung-joon's heart comes around,
I'd like to see you two get married soon.
Thank you, Father.
I'll try my best.
Please help me.
Father, Mother. I'm so sorry for what I've done.
I'm sorry that I've lived recklessly
and made you worried.
From now on, I will change for the better
and try my best as the eldest son.
Yoon-ee.
Are the pigs flying today?
I'm sure they are not.
We didn't eat something weird for lunch, right?
Nope.
Then, what's wrong with Geum-ho?
If someone changes all of a sudden...
I was fired. My wife hated me and ran away.
I can't even see my youngest daughter growing up.
I thought I should do my best for the sake of Bo-ram,
but I couldn't just settle down and keep causing trouble.
I hated always being compared to Geum-hee
and hated being treated with contempt.
To be honest,
I often got into trouble on purpose to attract your attention.
Scolding or hitting me means at least you care about me.
I got it. Stand up.
It's about time for Bo-ram to come back from school.
From now on, I'll help you at the restaurant
and learn how to make seolleongtang.
From this moment, I'll try to live decently, Father.
Mom, I'm sorry.
There we go.
It snows
Good job.
Everybody, I'm back.
-Hello. -Great job.
Bo-ram! My Bo-ram!
How was your first day of work?
I was really busy.
Because it's a general hospital, patients flooded in all day long.
My little girl.
Geum-hee.
Geum-hee, come on.
Who are you?
Don't you recognize your only brother?
I'm watching you right now, but I still can't believe this.
You, seriously!
It just doesn't add up to me that you're working.
You don't even have a fever.
What's wrong with you?
Aren't you going to make the food gift for Master Park?
The event is held the day after tomorrow.
Right, the event. What should I do?
Mom, are you really not going to help me?
All dishes served here were made
following Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
For several hundred years,
the recipes have been handed down
to the eldest daughters-in-law in my family.
The jelly fruit with cornelian cherries and quince kimchi cured my asthma.
Thanks to water parsley kimchi and rice with matrimony vine rice,
I healed my failing liver.
I'm asking you again, sir.
Please allow me to find someone who can carry forward
the true value of Yoogyeong Cuisine Book
that helped you to get better.
Please allow me to offer
this healthy and delicious food
to more people.
Are you still insisting on revealing Yoogyeong Cuisine Book to outsiders
and picking your successor through a contest?
Gosh.
I'm not breaking the tradition.
Please consider it
as a way of preserving the tradition better and longer.
Still, it's our own tradition,
our family heirloom, which was achieved by daughters-in-law
from previous generations. How can you...
Please look at my hands.
My hands got cut with a knife and crushed with a pestle,
and I lost my fingernails several times.
I was worried that the taste of soy sauce and kimchi may change,
so I cleaned the jars with cold water even in the winter,
I suffered from frostbite, and I lost all of my ten fingerprints.
In today's world,
who would be willing to live like me
just to preserve a family tradition?
Yet, there should be someone with sincerity
who will bring more honor
to Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
Please allow me to find such a person.
Can I interrupt you for a second?
You admit what she just said is right,
but it's still hard to decide, isn't it?
Senior family members,
I was able to save my life
thanks to Yoogyeong Cuisine.
So I'd like to share my thoughts.
If you think what she said is right,
please don't hesitate
and follow Master Park's suggestion.
What do you think?
Hello. Long time no see.
It's good to see you.
-Hello. -Hi.
-How are you? -Fine, thanks.
-Hello, it's been a while. -Hi.
-Please come this way. -Okay.
Okay.
-Welcome, Mr. Lee. -Hello.
-Please come this way. -Okay.
Let's go.
You should say it louder.
Mr. Seo, this way up!
Please move aside. Mr. Seo is on the way, okay?
Please move aside a little bit.
Chairman Seo Don-man is coming up.
Mr. Seo, this way, please.
It's Chairman Seo Don-man.
-Welcome. -Oh, hi.
-How are you? -Come in.
-Thank you for coming. -Let's go in.
Mr. Seo, I don't think they saw you.
You punk, just go.
-Oh, he's there. -Yes, let's go.
Mr. Lee.
-Oh, Ms. Choi. -Hi.
-This is-- -Oh, there...
My goodness.
Hello, Master Park.
Oh, Mr. Lee, you're here.
Thank you for the seolleongtang that you sent me in the morning.
I boiled it again in a cauldron in the yard.
Everyone liked it so much.
Is...
the seolleongtang from the restaurant in Haso-dong?
Oh, you know about the restaurant, too?
We dropped you off at the restaurant on the way from the Blue House.
Oh, that's right.
And you know,
that restaurant never provides delivery or take-out service,
but I kept insisting.
They sent me not only seolleongtang,
but other delicious and elaborate side dishes.
Her cooking skill is extraordinary.
I feel bad.
Ms. Kim has such a good heart.
I feel so indebted to her.
She actually sent me extra 100 servings in addition to my initial order.
So I felt terribly sorry.
But on top of that, she packed side dishes?
I wish I could meet her someday.
It's not just because of her delicious food,
but also because of her generous heart.
She knows how to share, so I admire her.
-Master Park! -Oh?
Oh, my!
This is really great.
When I heard it's a charity event,
I thought it'd be a small party.
But it's so crowded here.
This is the so-called...
Noblesse oblige.
Right, noblesse oblige.
Right, Mr. Seo.
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule.
Of course, I should come. We're going to be in-laws.
Oh, you came.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you. Please this way.
Hello, welcome.
Mr. Lee!
Master Park personally made these tea sweets. Please try some.
This is made by Master Park,
the hostess of today's event?
Let me taste it.
As expected, this tastes great.
Mr. Lee.
If I don't become the successor to her,
will I lose the opportunity to supply our food to INH?
It doesn't work that way.
You know, our INH is looking
for a partner who provides for us food
with genuine Korean traditional taste.
Would you give me a more detailed hint?
There's my favorite old seolleongtang restaurant.
It's right here in Daejeon.
Their food always makes customers happy.
It reminds me of my home town and my mother.
Not to mention their seolleongtang,
rice, kimchi, and side dishes all cherish their humble, but deep flavor,
which is unique to their family.
Especially, the kimchi is exceptional.
I feel like their kimchi is even better than Master Park's.
Mr. Lee, I'll show you something better.
In return, you should make a promise.
Once I manage to create the taste that you've been looking for,
then, please grant me
the exclusive right to supply food to INH
for the next three years.
You're very ambitious, Ms. Choi.
Once you successfully create that taste,
let us come back to this subject again.
Oh, as soon as you create something
comparable to Master Park's,
other candidates will be automatically removed from the list.
Sure, Mr. Lee. I'll definitely succeed.
-Did you enjoy the food? -Yes, I did.
Geum-hee!
Hey, what are you doing here, Golden Bat?
-Huh? -What?
Are you going to ask me why I'm here?
You know this is my home, right?
That's right.
You're the grandson of Master Park.
So it should be natural to see you here.
You see? You're quite interested in my family.
What interest? Right.
This!
Why do you have this?
When you slept over at the adobe house,
you left this behind.
Slept over at the adobe house?
Thank you.
BE BENEVOLENT, VIRTUOUS, AND ALTRUISTIC.
-Please split this into two. -Yes.
Put some white kimchi here.
Yes.
-Take care. -Thank you.
Enjoy your food.
Hello.
I appreciate my neighbors taking care of
and caring for our head family.
Thank you for holding the event and inviting us every year.
-You're welcome. -I heard
you're making an announcement tonight.
Right, please attend it and enjoy your meal, too.
-Shall we? -Sure.
Hello, ma'am.
Hello, Dr. Geum-hee Hwang.
Thank you for inviting me to such a great event.
Thank you.
And this is a gift that I prepared for you.
Thank you.
By the way, how does Gun-woo know Dr. Hwang?
We went to the same college. She's my best friend.
Her family actually made that seolleongtang you had before.
Is that so?
I see.
Wow, they're bite-size ginger cake and fruit jelly with Siberian ginseng.
What did you add to the ginger cake?
Well, in order to reduce its woody flavor,
avoid indigestion, and make you chew it well,
I added minced pear kimchi.
It's a great idea.
I'm happy to know that you're caring for the person who eats your food.
When our ancestors handed a bowl of water over,
they floated a leaf on the water so that people would drink slowly.
You're right.
It wouldn't be easy for you to prepare
a food gift for someone like me.
It's rather crude, but homemade flavored.
You made the best use of each ingredient.
Did you make this on your own? Yes, I did on my own.
Thank you. Thank you.
Gun-woo, please take good care of her.
Yes, Granny.
Thank you.
Enjoy your food.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
Don't you see we're short-handed?
Please sit down and help us out.
Grill beef and vegetable skewers.
Well, this meat is not for beef and vegetable skewers.
Then, what is it?
Master Park, it's the bottom round.
Huh? I don't think so.
This is foreshank used in stews or raw beef.
It's the lean meat without any fat similar to the bottom round.
No wonder you're confused.
Master Park, how did you come up with the idea that you'd make tea sweets
with the old food in the freezer?
Because of ripe persimmon and its refreshing, sweet flavor,
it's a perfect dessert after fatty party foods.
Let me try.
The tea sweet made with beef jerky has ripe persimmon.
But the tea sweet with beef and veggie skewers has dried persimmon.
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You did great. Great.
Don't ever touch the food.
Since everyone gathered here,
I'd like to keep the promise
that I made when I became a daughter-in-law in this family
in front of my mother-in-law and my ancestors
fifty years ago.
Yoogyeong Cuisine Book
This old book is
the treasure of our family, Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
Since we're disclosing this to the public for the first time,
let me first explain the origin of Yoogyeong Cuisine Book.
In the 20th year of King Sukjong's reign,
due to his skin disease and chronic fatigue,
he had to lie down and he was unable to eat anything.
My ancestors have been royal physicians
or royal chefs for generations.
One of my ancestors, a royal physician, tried
to treat the king day and night, but the king didn't show any improvement.
So the queen gave an order that the royal chef, the highest lady
of the royal kitchen, and the royal physician should develop
foods that will revive the king's appetite.
Three of them put their heads together for days
and noticed more than three kinds of kimchi was served on the royal table.
After that, they started to research on kimchi.
While trying a variety of methods with kimchi,
they found out that when it's added to ground red chili pepper
and fermented with salty fish,
it produced refreshing, tangy-spicy, and deep tastes.
They also realized that kimchi strengthens the immune system
and can effectively prevent diseases.
Therefore, they served red napa cabbage kimchi along with radish kimchi
and dongchimi for the king.
The king was greatly satisfied with them and regained his appetite.
Since then, people started to add red chili pepper
and salt-fermented sea food to the kimchi seasoning.
The king ordered his servants
to research foods like kimchi that can help treat or prevent diseases
even without using expensive ingredients or medical herbs.
He also ordered them to record their efficacy and recipes
-and hand them down to posterity. -Hello.
Yes.
-And he named the book -Pardon?
Yoogyeong Cuisine Book, which means
the food that contains the principle of the universe.
This book has handed down the wisdom and experiences
of our eldest grandsons and granddaughters-in-law.
It's a compilation of the recipes for healing foods
and the efficacy of each ingredient.
It's the best cookbook especially on kimchi.
We found San-hae, Master Park.
So far, we've handed down this book
only to a granddaughter-in-law in our family.
However, I'd like to change the way
and fairly pick my successor
through a cooking contest.
We found San-hae, Master Park.
I should put this below.
Geum-ho.
Give me a minute.
They are the keys for the kitchen and storage.
Get some kimchi early in the morning for tomorrow's business
and start learning from how to adjust the heat of seolleongtang cauldron first.
Father.
Thank you very much, Father.
I'll do my best. Father, thank you.
I really appreciate it, Father.
I may have set the fox to keep the geese.
I'm back.
-Oh, you're back? -I'm back, Man-jae.
-Okay, great. -Thanks.
How was the event? Were there many people?
Of course. Dad, I saw all kinds of celebrities there.
Did you give her your present?
"It's rather crude, but homemade flavored.
You made the best use of each ingredient."
That's what she said.
She praised our seolleongtang a lot
and she'd like to visit our restaurant soon.
Now that she can recognize your mom's cooking skill,
she must be a real food expert.
Anything else?
she revealed her family heirloom, Yoogyeong Cuisine Book for the first time.
I also glimpsed the book.
She said, "I'll hand this book over to my successor,
who will be fairly decided through a contest."
She really said that.
San-hae.
I'm sure.
Mother did it because she wants to find me.
Mother.
Thief! Thief!
Hey! It's a thief!
Come out right now. Come out. It's a mess.
He stole a whole cauldron of seolleongtang.
Come out right away!
Come this way! Come!
-Oh my god! -Darn it.
Gosh.
-Oh, god. -The whole cauldron is gone.
-Oh, my god. -Look here.
-Oh, my god. -Everything's gone.
All the seolleongtang has been stolen.
They took everything. What do we do?
Oh, my god. What do we do?
It's all gone? Gosh.
Oh, my goodness.
What a disaster!
Oh my god!
You know,
All the kimchi was stolen, too.
What should we do?
Ma'am.
We're almost there.
-Darn it. -Goodness.
-Oh my goddess. -Look here.
What should we do?
-They took everything. -Darn it!
What happened?
What do we do, huh?
Radish Kimchi
-What a disaster! -Seriously!
-It's all gone here. -All gone.
Geum-ho, this punk.
I thought he settled down.
That's why I gave him the storage key.
Don't say anything to Geum-hee and Bo-ram.
Once Geum-hee finds this out, things will become more serious.
Okay.
But, why is Geum-hee so quiet?
She's a light sleeper. She would've come out already.
She stayed late at night studying healing food.
She must be sleeping like a log now.
She'd better not know about this.
We can simply boil seolleongtang again,
but kimchi takes quite a while
to make and get fermented.
Gosh.
Although we serve different kimchi on each table,
he stole the three most popular kimchi.
We'll have to close the restaurant until the kimchi gets fermented.
You mean, we'll close the restaurant for more than 15 days?
Ms. Kim, let's continue our business with what we still have.
I'm sorry for our customers since we're closing for so long.
If I have to serve less satisfying foods,
I will feel sorrier to our customers.
Well, let me clean up here.
Go and put on some clothes.
You're embarrassing us.
How much salt and red chili pepper powder do we have?
We still have 2,000 cloves of garlic from Uiseong.
Ginger and scallions are enough with what we have now.
We'll have to buy more red chili pepper powder and salt.
Yoon-ee, put up a sign that says "Temporarily Closed."
Send texts to our regular customers about the temporary closing.
Okay.
Geum-ho didn't call you yet?
But it's weird.
How could he steal so much overnight?
He probably hired people at a high price.
Geum-ho is a real troublemaker.
How could an eldest son steal from his own family?
In Hong Kong--
Cut it out.
There are such people in your country, too.
That's right.
But it's the first time for me to see such a person.
-Come on. -Ouch!
Don't let Bo-ram know about this.
Watch your mouth, everybody.
THIRD GENERATION SEOLLEONGTANG
I guess they found out by now, but why aren't they calling me?
It makes me more nervous.
We worked all night. When are you going to pay?
This doesn't feel right. I should get paid more.
Okay, I got it. Just focus on the packaging.
I'll pay you more. What's not right? My goodness.
FATHER
Why?
Are you going to go after him?
He stabbed his parents and sibling in the back.
I'll catch him with my own hands and take him to the police.
Stop it.
You'll end up getting sick and embarrassing yourself.
Honey, please prepare the ingredients that we have
with Man-jae and Sook-ja.
Don't worry too much.
Shall I go with you so that I can see my grandmother, too?
You should take care of yourself.
I'll be back soon.
Let me pick up Chinese pepper at the adobe house.
And I'll boil pollack broth for kimchi.
Yes.
As soon as you come back, we'll make sure we can start
making kimchi right away.
Yoon-ee, help your mom and take care of Bo-ram, too.
Yes, ma'am.
Alex, we'll go out and buy napa cabbages, radishes, and peppers.
You'd better get changed and get ready.
Yes, ma'am.
Please take special care of Bo-ram.
If her dad is not around, she'll be depressed and walk on eggshells.
Excuse me.
Could you move aside
so that a car can pass through?
Darn it.
Why are you driving a huge car in this tiny village
and asking an old woman like me to move aside?
-Please, ma'am. -Gosh.
I apologize.
We were in such a hurry that we caused you trouble.
If you don't mind, I'd like to give you a ride.
Where will you put my walker?
Excuse me.
Have you lived here for a long time?
I was born here and lived here ever since.
If you have anything to ask, go ahead.
It's been a long time, so I'm not sure if you'd still remember.
Do you remember a girl
named San-hae Kang about 16 or 17 years old,
who used to live in Daejeon?
I heard she lived here for quite a while.
San-hae Kang?
When did it happen?
It's about 35 years ago. Can you remember anything?
This is her picture.
Oh.
She's the girl who was good at cooking.
Do you know her?
Are you sure it's her?
Does she still live here?
She left soon.
Did she leave? Do you know where she went?
No way. I'm too old
to even remember my age.
How can I remember all those old things?
Right, if you turn around the corner over there,
there's a restaurant where she used to work for.
You may go and check. I'm getting off here.
But...
Ma'am.
If you happen to remember anything like her number--
I told you she didn't stay here long. There's no point in trying to think.
-Get me my walker. -Yes.
By any chance,
are you her mother?
That girl.
She threw herself into the sea, but someone saved her.
She tried to commit suicide?
What were you doing when she left home?
Why are you crying now looking for her?
I'm sorry.
There was a reason.
Don't cry.
She's affable and diligent,
so I thought she'd live well wherever she went.
Don't worry.
Thank you.
HAENARU SUSHI RESTAURANT AND LODGING
Hello.
We don't serve meals right now
because my mother is not here.
We're not here for meals.
Is your mother the owner?
Yes, I'm her son, a sous chef.
Oh, is that so? Where is your mother?
Since she also discerns fish,
she went out to see fish as ships came back.
Oh, okay.
Mother.
They're looking for you.
-Hello. -Hello.
We're here looking for someone.
I heard she worked for this restaurant long time ago.
When did she work for us?
It's about 35 years ago.
Her name is San-hae Kang
and she was about 16 or 17 years old.
At that time, I was living in the neighboring village.
I don't remember her name.
As you can see, I'm blind.
I can't remember her face, either.
I'm sorry that I can't help you.
I see.
That's fine. I understand.
Let's meet that old lady one more time.
Yes.
Are you just leaving?
I don't think you've eaten anything.
Let me fix something for you quickly.
I'm fine.
I have no appetite anyway.
Take care.
Excuse me.
Though I'm blind, I'm very sensitive to the sound.
I'd like to treat you though I'm meeting you for the first time.
Let's do so, Master Park.
We'll have to eat anyway.
To avoid freezing to death,
the winter napa cabbage cuts back on water itself
so it's firm and crunchy even after a while.
The spring napa cabbage containing lots of water becomes too soft.
Kimchi tastes the best when it's been fermented for three weeks.
The outside leaves should be green, but the inside should be yellow.
A short stalk is better than a long one.
It tastes and smells better
when the inside is loose, not too dense.
Am I right, Ms. Kim?
Right. Now you'd be able to go to the market on your own.
Outdoor napa cabbage is more flexible than the one grown in greenhouse.
The ideal size is medium, weighing 2 to 3kg.
Dear student.
You may leave me now.
I still have a long way to go, master.
Gosh, you know how to tell a joke.
We can't load all of it in our car. Please deliver the rest of them.
Yes, ma'am.
Should we go and check radishes now?
Hey! We should go to Grandma's house for sun-dried red chili pepper.
Sure.

Ms. Kim, I'm hungry. Let's eat first.
Do you usually have few customers at lunch time?
Thanks to you, I got to know two precious people.
Then, let's have both of you to try it.
He helped us establish the hospital
and is an influential figure in the healthcare industry.
Although he's very close to my family, this is a matter of the hospital's honor.
Please try some.
You didn't set the table that day,
but how do you know what side dishes were on the table?
