May I help you?
I just saw someone run inside.
Who?
Someone strange ran over here.
No.
This is the staff room.
Strangers aren't allowed inside.
I'm sorry. You should go back.
Leave a little later.
(Episode 3)
(Who do you think she is?)
Who do you think she is?
You'll get to meet her soon.
(Connecting)
The number you have called does not exist.
Please check...
I'm going to send you a photo. I want you to find out who it is.
I don't know. I don't know anything.
All I have is just one photo.
Find out as soon as possible. Find out who she is,
where she lives, and what she does for a living.
(25 years ago)
I'm sorry.
What is her problem?
Excuse me. I'm sorry.
Where did she go?
She's driving me crazy.
Kyung Ah.
I saw you.
Are you playing hide-and-seek?
Yes, do you want to play with me?
Yes.
Come here.
Kyung Ah.
Mister, have you seen my younger sister?
- No, I haven't seen her. - Song Ah?
Kyung Ah! Kyung Ah!
We're supposed to be hiding.
We need to stay hidden until she finds us.
Where did this woman go?
She's not here either.
- Let's look for her over there. - Little girl.
They're also trying to find us. Let's go somewhere else.
Kyung Ah.
Kyung Ah. Kyung Ah.
- Kyung Ah. - It's my older sister.
We might get caught. Let's hurry up and hide.
Kyung Ah.
Nothing's happened...
for the past 25 years.
No one was able to find out.
I'm sure this is just a prank.
Everything will be fine.
Who would do something like this?
What are you doing?
I haven't seen this photo in a while.
Now that I look at it, Da Seul and Kyung Ah look similar.
She's probably all grown up now.
I wonder if she got married.
Mom.
She'll be fine.
Of course, she'll be fine.
I'm sorry, Mom.
I shouldn't have taken her outside that day.
She's probably a lot happier and has a better life...
than the life she would've had if she lived here with me.
If I think of it that way,
I'm able to smile every time I look at this photo.
So you should also stop saying Kyung Ah's dead.
Okay.
You're the one who had to bury your own child.
I shouldn't be saying this to you.
It's okay, Mom.
There.
Let's eat. I cooked wild chive soup, your favorite.
Wild chive soup?
You're even cooking now. You finally feel like my mom again.
When was I never your mom?
- Let's go and eat. - Okay.
Let's go.
It's so delicious.
You need to make sure you don't skip any meals.
That's how you'll gain energy. Here.
Of course.
You're eating so well. What do you want this time?
- Would you like to try this? - Okay.
Here you go.
- It's delicious. - Is it?
- Mother. - How is she?
The doctor just left.
He said she fainted due to shock...
and that she'll be fine once she gets some good sleep.
That's a relief. Let's take her home for now.
Okay, Mother.
This is the staff room.
Strangers aren't allowed inside.
I'm sure I saw him run inside.
Why did she lie and say no one was there?
Grandpa, is Eun Seok coming back to Korea for good this time?
Yes, that's what he said.
Can I work as his secretary when he comes back?
- You want to be his secretary? - Yes.
Why would you want to be a secretary?
There are so many other positions in the company.
If that doesn't satisfy you, let me be the chief secretary.
What's the difference?
There's a big difference, Mother.
I appoint Eun Ji as Eun Seok's chief secretary.
Eun Ji, my goodness.
If you have no ambition, you should just work for me.
I'll let you be my chief secretary.
She'll be better off working for Eun Seok than you.
He's competent and young.
- You'll also learn a lot from him. - I agree.
Dad, do you really think I'm no better than Eun Seok?
Eun Ji wants to work for him.
She wants to be Eun Seok's secretary.
Mom, don't you know Eun Seok?
He's a man of competence that got scouted by a Japanese firm...
while he was working at the best consulting firm in New York.
I'll have so much to learn from him.
You're the smartest among the three people in your family.
Thank you, Grandpa.
By the way, Mom.
Is Young Man marrying Ae Young in Hawaii?
What?
Oh, yes.
Ae Young's family lives in Hawaii.
They apparently can't wait to welcome Young Man into their family.
Do you really think so?
How can you ever trust what Young Man says?
That was great.
You're amazing, Ae Young.
Mike, you can't come over to my house tonight.
Why not?
My boyfriend's at my place. His name is Kim Young Man.
Boyfriend? I thought I was your most recent boyfriend.
I had a rich boyfriend back in Korea.
I told him to get a divorce, and he really did.
Then he suddenly flew over here wanting to marry me.
Oh, my gosh.
He got divorced just for you?
I did pull a mean prank on him.
But when I heard that he actually got a divorce,
I started to get the chills.
A free soul like you? Getting married?
That's nonsense.
I'm going to send him back within a week.
Does that mean we won't get to meet for a whole week?
Don't worry. I'll drop by once in a while.
Make sure you send him away without getting caught.
I really hate fighting other guys.
Okay.
Young Man is an honest man.
He was courageous enough to confess that he fell for another woman.
He's 100 times better...
than those guys who lie and cheat behind their wives' backs.
I can't believe he fell for Song Ah, that withered brat.
Imagine how hard it must've been for him.
What did you just say? Good going.
Are you rooting for your son's adultery?
Yes, Dad.
I'm going to root for him now that things turned out this way.
What's done is done.
Let's congratulate Young Man on his fresh start.
Who in the world is Young Man?
I've never heard of him before.
That darn punk.
Dad.
If you bring Song Ah back, I'll remember who he is again.
Why does he like Song Ah so much?
His grandson should come before his granddaughter-in-law.
Are you trying to make things worse?
Why are you suddenly trying to become a secretary?
Mom, I already have a grand plan.
So you can just sit back and enjoy the ride.
I'm already upset that Eun Seok will also be participating...
in our collaboration with Jenny.
That's exactly it.
I'll keep my eyes on her while I help Eun Seok.
- Keep your eyes on her? - Yes.
Keep your eyes on her?
Man Soo, come and have some tea.
Okay, Mother.
Do you like Jenny that much?
Seeing her lying so quietly in bed...
made me feel as if we're a couple for a short while.
What do you mean by "short while"?
You'll soon get see her every day for the rest of your life.
Just the thought of it is enough to make my heart flutter.
But you see, I'm not sure if Jenny will be able...
to go to Korea in that state.
She should go.
She said she really wants to go...
and told me that she has a lot of memories of Korea.
Memories?
That's all a bunch of nonsense.
- Pardon? - She came here when she was little.
So she has no memories of Korea.
She started reading Korean magazines, books, and fairy tales...
just because of the fact that she's Korean.
And one day, she started getting confused...
of her actual memories from the stories she read.
I heard she washed her hair in a public bathroom in the park.
She also said she fell asleep in a pay phone booth...
and that she even stood guard for a pickpocket...
She... She told you all that?
Yes, I recall her telling me a story about it.
But it did make me think that she's a very imaginative person.
Her imagination is out of this world.
My goodness.
Back when Jenny was young,
she suffered from a severe fever because of encephalitis.
I see.
That's when she started saying weird stuff,
so she even got treatment for that.
But I guess it wasn't enough to treat that specific symptom.
So she sometimes talks nonsense to me as well.
I laugh every time I hear her say stuff like that.
But it really does upset me.
If that's all from her imagination, Jenny really must be quite unique.
Exactly.
Whenever she says stuff like that, just think of it...
as her immunity going down because she's working too hard.
I just feed her a lot of delicious stuff...
and make sure she gets good rest.
So don't feel nervous and just do exactly the same...
whenever Jenny says anything weird to you from now on.
Okay, Mother.
There are so many other stories about rich people.
I don't get why she keeps mistaking stories of poor people as her own.
She's very peculiar.
Yes, she is.
Let's just leave all our stuff here. Everything's too old.
Are you sure we don't need to bring anything?
Yes, I'm sure.
It's the first house that my grandparents-in-law ever lived in.
He repaired everything,
and he even grew flowers there. All the furniture is still there,
and there are more dishes there than here.
Then I guess we really don't need to take anything with us.
That's right. Let's go there tomorrow to clean up...
and take a look around the house.
If you want, we can even sleep there starting from tomorrow.
The blankets are all there as well.
Okay, let's do that.
By the way, did Ma Eum do a good job on her presentation yesterday?
Yes, she was the best.
Ma Eum drew a blowfish's house.
A blowfish's house.
Yes, she said that's the kind of house she wants.
She must want a house really desperately.
I can't believe she drew a blowfish's house.
Why is it so hard to own a house?
Well, to make things worse,
- we need to move out. - What?
We already know what we'll be getting as the deposit.
Plus, Ma Eum needs to go to school.
We can't move to another neighborhood.
Don't worry. I'll take care of it.
Didn't you say you wanted to discuss something with me?
It's nothing. I'll try to handle it on my own.
What is it? Tell me.
I'll help you out if there's anything I can do.
Well, the thing is, there's this designer named Jenny Han.
Jenny Han?
What happened?
- Jenny. - Jenny.
She's planning to visit Korea,
but her entire schedule is top secret.
Jenny apparently hates reporters.
So not a single reporter ever got to meet her or interview her.
And you want to meet and interview someone like her?
Yes, if I succeed in interviewing her,
my articles are guaranteed to get published for at least six months.
The chief editor gave me his word.
What do you need?
The date and time of her arrival and what plane she's riding.
With that information, I think I'll be able to come up with something.
Okay.
We can ask Kyung Soo for help. This is his job.
Oh, right. Kyung Soo.
He's the legendary Sherlock Holmes of Gangnam,
a former cop, and a veteran with a 20-year work experience.
I'm sure he'll be able to find something.
Am I alive?
I thought I got shot and died.
It wasn't a gun. It was a firecracker.
A firecracker?
A firecracker went off on stage,
and that's how you got that scar on your face.
I thought it was a terror attack and that I was going to die.
I felt something burning here.
I was so startled.
You get scared so easily, Jenny.
You didn't get injured. You just fainted due to shock.
Did you catch the culprit?
Who would do something like that?
I'll catch the culprit for you no matter what.
I have a headache.
- You should lie down a bit more. - She's right.
- Man Soo, let's go outside. - Okay, Mother.
My gosh.
They're acting like they're in-laws already.
What's wrong with them?
Gosh, I have a headache.
I should get going now, Mother.
Okay, thank you for your help.
I'm thinking of going to the police station to file a report.
- No, don't bother. - Pardon?
There's a cop I'm personally acquainted with.
He helps out every time something happens to Jenny.
I can talk to him instead.
You're a busy man, so you should go now.
Okay, call me if anything happens.
Okay.
(A former policeman, Gangnam Sherlock)
(GPS tracking service, Accompanying service, Issuing service)
You're hungry, aren't you?
I'm really hungry.
You like gukbap, right?
I love gukbap.
Then wake up and eat!
Gukbap? Gukbap...
- Hey, Dong Joo. - Hey, how have you been?
This... This is my favorite dish.
I was actually really hungry.
How did you know that I was hungry?
I know your taste very well.
This place even serves amazing kimchi.
Thank you for the meal.
By the way, what brings you here...
at this hour?
I just came to check up on you.
Hey, don't lie to me.
If you have something to say, just say it.
I'm really touched right now.
So I'm ready to do anything for you.
- Kyung Soo. - Yes?
Well, the thing is...
There's this person who's coming from Japan.
Who is it?
Thank goodness I didn't get severely injured.
I thought it was a terror attack.
Jenny. Jenny!
I wonder who that man was.
He was the first person to run over to me when I had fainted.
He was as fast as a bullet.
And he called my name so desperately.
He was definitely aiming for Jenny.
Someone strange ran over here.
No, this is the staff room.
Strangers aren't allowed inside.
I really don't think it was just an accident.
We're here, Mom.
This place is amazing.
My goodness.
There's a flower garden also.
Hello.
- Mr. Kim Young Seo? - Yes.
Here you go.
- How much do I need to pay? - 18 dollars.
My goodness, look at these beautiful flowers.
It's perfect.
Mom will surely get better if we live in a house like this.
(Real Estate)
(Studios, apartments, houses, land...)
(Lease contract, Monthly rent)
I'll give you a month. Empty the place within a month.
Mom, aren't you hungry?
Should we order black bean noodles?
Gosh, you want black bean noodles again?
Do you like them that much?
Yes, Kyung Ah...
She used to like them.
Goodness. Everything else might've changed,
but I'm sure she still likes black bean noodles.
Mom.
Every time I see a young lady who likes black bean noodles,
it reminds me of Kyung Ah.
Okay, I'll order a double portion, okay?
Okay.
Jenny, do you like black bean noodles that much?
Yes.
She even wakes up in the middle of her sleep to eat black bean noodles.
I fed her so many other delicious foods,
but her palate stays so humble.
The best thing I like about your hotel...
is this Chinese restaurant.
This place serves really delicious black bean noodles.
I hired a Korean chef...
who's good at making black bean noodles just for you.
This wasn't even on the menu.
Really?
I didn't know that.
I'm so touched by everything you do, Man Soo.
You're so meticulously considerate when it comes to Jenny.
I really chose the best son-in-law.
Mom. Man Soo.
You keep treating each other like you're in-laws already.
I'm sorry to say this,
but can you please not talk that way in front of me?
- Jenny. - Man Soo.
You know it makes me feel uncomfortable, right?
I'm sorry. I'll stop.
Man Soo, it's okay.
Regardless of what anyone says, you're my son-in-law.
Okay, Mo...
Moth...
Now that we're talking about black bean noodles,
there are also professional chefs working at the Chinese restaurant...
in my hotel in Seoul.
You can have as much as you want there.
Thank you.
Is it delicious?
Yes.
By the way,
I noticed that there's also an annex here.
What do you think about putting that out for rent?
- Rent? - Yes.
I'm sure it's hard to get a room in this neighborhood.
We'll get a tenant right away. It'll feel homier too.
That's a good idea.
Let's drop by the realtor on our way home.
Okay.
I did a little bit of research.
And I heard a rumor saying Jenny Han is practically a fool...
who knows nothing.
Gosh, that can't be true.
If she's a fool, how could she have earned that much money?
And who would spend it all?
Well, maybe she's not a complete fool.
But she might be a fool who does nothing else but work.
Her mom acts as her manager and has full control over her.
And she apparently manages all her income.
Her mom?
It's been a while since that rumor spread.
"If you want to meet Jenny,"
"you need to get her mother's approval first."
Her mother apparently cares for Jenny so much...
that she'd even slice off her flesh and boil it for her...
if she says she's hungry.
Gosh, that's horrible.
That's such a cruel way to describe something.
She must love her daughter so much judging by that rumor.
Have you never heard of it before?
What are you talking about?
Of course, I heard about it. I already knew it all.
Anyway, her mother cares for her tremendously.
And I heard Jenny Han has about a dozen illnesses.
A dozen?
She has heart troubles, allergies,
insomnia, panic disorder, and so on.
She's like a walking hospital.
That's nonsense. She looked fine in the photo.
There are so many rumors about her, but no one's ever able to check,
so the rumors keep getting exaggerated.
I'll find out the truth.
If you meet Jenny Han, you'll be the first...
No. You'll be the first reporter to interview her...
in the entire world.
So have a sense of responsibility and make sure you get it done.
Okay, I will.
(Hope Quick Delivery)
- Hey, Kyung Soo. - I found her flight number.
She'll be here at 10am on Thursday.
Really?
Yes. She'll also be staying at Gangnam Triple Hotel.
Gosh, you even figured out the hotel?
The hotel even hired a driver...
so they could pick her up at the airport.
I'm trying to find out who that driver is.
I should do my best to help Kyung In's dream come true.
Gosh, you're the best, Kyung Soo.
My goodness. I love you.
(Outsight Magazine)
Hey, Dong Joo.
Hey, I found out when Jenny Han will be arriving.
I'll text you her flight number, time of arrival,
and the hotel she'll be staying at.
Dong Joo, I'm so touched!
Gosh, don't mention it.
He's even going to find the driver...
that's going to pick her up at the airport.
Gosh, that's amazing.
Reporter Lee, I hope you score big time.
Yes, of course. I will.
Dong Joo, come home early today.
I'll cook a really delicious meal for you.
Okay, I'm actually heading back to our neighborhood...
because I'm not getting any more calls.
I'm going to look for a new place.
Oh, right. We need to move.
Your deposit won't get you anywhere.
You should look for a place in the suburbs.
My kid goes to school here, so it has to be somewhere nearby.
I don't mind if it's in the basement or the rooftop.
There aren't any places at the moment.
But I'll call you if anything decent comes up.
Please give me your phone number.
Okay, please give me a call.
Dad.
Hey, Ma Eum.
Where are you coming from?
I bought some stuff for school.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
But why are you here, Dad?
I'm looking for a new place to live near your school.
Did you find a place?
Not yet.
Aunt Kyung In said she'll come home early and cook pork cutlets for us.
- Doesn't that sound delicious? - I can't wait.
Let's hurry up and go home. Come on.
It's my son-in-law.
- Mom. - Young Man.
- Young Man. - Mom.
Young Man.
My son-in-law.
Oh, hello.
Mom.
Da Seul.
Why didn't you ever visit me?
Do you know how much I missed you?
Goodness, Da Seul.
Da Seul.
I missed you so much.
Didn't you miss your mom?
She's right here.
Dad.
(Shady Mom-in-law)
Is your daughter somewhere far away?
Is she abroad?
It's somewhere further away than that.
I'm sorry to have bothered you.
- Is there a celebrity on the plane? - Jenny Han.
I heard she's a psycho.
I heard she even wears a mask when she goes to sleep.
People exaggerate so much when they gossip.
You want me to disguise myself as the driver?
That means I'll get to be with Jenny in that car.
You might get caught right away.
Don't worry.
