(Rainbow Challenge)
(Empty studio)
(Door opening)
Goodness, this is very heavy.
It's too heavy. You should come to this side.
This side?
- Let's put it down here. - Okay.
We can just roll it there.
It doesn't roll smoothly, does it?
Oh, that's good.
- Let's pull it this way. - This way?
(Hye Jin proved herself as a model with the 100 Outfit Challenge.)
(The 2020 Seoul Fashion Week was canceled, )
(but we still had Hye Jin's Fashion Week.)
(That outfit is very pretty.)
(It's totally my style.)
(I like this one too.)
(The buyer who wants to purchase all of the 100 outfits)
(I'm in.)
(Rainbow Club members decided to take part in the project.)
(Opening of Rainbow Runway...)
(after the 100 Outfit Runway)
(The music is okay.)
Look at the lighting. My goodness.
- What am I? - This can make it fancy.
Am I the audience?
(And)
(Here comes the model.)
(Walking just like when she walked in the 100th outfit)
Goodness, you are a true model.
(Perfectly reenacting the runway)
She is different.
(Charismatic)
(She's so cool.)
All right, next one. Please come in.
Come in.
(Toddling steps)
(It's the same outfit, but it looks different on Si Eon.)
(After the cute walking)
- Walk towards the end. - What's wrong with your legs?
His legs are outwards.
(Awkwardly posing)
It's too much.
Are you wearing casts?
(Dam Bi's arm casts)
This is fashion, okay? This way.
Next model, please.
(Tall and handsome)
What?
(Grinning)
- What? - He has such long legs.
(His perfect proportions refresh our eyes.)
- Goodness. - He looks so good in that.
(Matching coats)
(Jealous)
Next model, please.
Next model.
(Bursting into laughter)
Next model.
(Taking big steps)
(Profound looks)
That's very shocking.
(Kian84 becomes all confident.)
(Shocked)
- It's a see-through shirt. - Oh, my gosh.
My eyes!
(Look at my eyes.)
(He suddenly shows off his power on the runway.)
(Then he leaves the stage.)
- Where are you going? - Where are you going?
(Then he quickly runs away.)
- Hey. - He's shy.
(His body doesn't seem like it's shy.)
Please close the jacket.
- Close the jacket. - Goodness.
(Bo Hyun closes the jacket for Kian84.)
All right, it's the last one.
Finale model.
Clap for the finale model.
- The designer? - Goodness.
This is the real deal.
- Why are her shoulders so broad? - It's something Na Rae would wear.
(Why do her shoulders look so broad?)
Her bones are dislocated.
(Stretching)
(Shaking)
- Goodness. - Gosh.
It's shocking.
(Na Rae even wore the ribbon that Hye Jin wore last week.)
Hey, Na Rae.
- It's the turntable. - Goodness.
(Manual turntable)
(Walking with confidence)
Everyone, let's do the finale walk.
All right. Join us.
(Chic)
(Everyone walks the runway together.)
(Hye Jin is proud of them.)
- It looks very elegant. - Goodness.
- Gosh, it was great. - I know. This is very new.
(Rainbow Runway is a huge success.)
That was a huge success. I'm proud of you all.
(Home Alone)
Goodness, nice to see you.
(Welcome back to Home Alone.)
Do we look good in the outfits?
I'd like to say thank you...
on behalf of the designers.
Thank you so much.
All right. It's time to watch the video.
Continuing the Labor Day Special last week,
we're having a Parents' Day Special this week.
Many of you will be surprised.
- Why? - But Parents' Day was last week.
He's right.
Our show got canceled last week...
due to the breaking news on May 8.
May 8 isn't the only Parents' Day.
As we respect our parents 365 days a year,
- Goodness. - We prepared a special episode...
- for Parents' Day. - You wrapped it up nicely.
- Yes. It's a month for families. - That's right.
Let's remind ourselves to always be good to our parents.
Why are you looking at me?
There's no reason.
That was good. You looked at the right person.
(Let's be good to our parents.)
(Ahn Bo Hyun's spring day)
(Bo Hyun makes his bed as soon as he gets up.)
It's Bo Hyun.
His lights are still on.
He's very neat.
What did people say about your house after watching the show?
Home Alone has a huge effect.
- How? - Why do you say that?
I didn't expect people to recognize me when I was wearing a mask,
but they do.
And my car has become famous.
- I see. - Everyone will recognize it.
Yes, that's right.
People even recognize my car because of it.
- What? - My local bus.
Your local bus?
Yes, some think they look similar.
It's exhausting.
I heard you swipe your card when you get in your car.
- Whenever you ride it. - Whenever he starts the car.
It says, "It's Kian84".
I say hi to the bus drivers that pass by.
You do?
(Bo Hyun is still half asleep as he walks into his kitchen.)
- What is that? - A water filter.
It's a water jug, and it's used when camping.
I have cold water in the refrigerator...
and lemon water in the water jug.
(Lemon water in the water jug)
(Gulping)
(Bottoms up)
(He woke up late, and it's time for lunch.)
(His refrigerator is filled with ingredients to cook with.)
- Wow. - It's stocked better than mine.
He's a good housekeeper.
I can't relate to you at all.
(He takes a bag out of the refrigerator.)
- Those are fatsia shoots. - Those are fatsia shoots.
- They're in season. - They're in season.
- They are? - Yes.
I'm not that bad.
- Na Rae, I'm not that bad. - They're in season?
- Do you know where they grow? - What?
They grow in the sea.
He told me they grow in the sea.
(Bo Hyun joins in on making fun of Dam Bi.)
- Seaweed? - Like seaweed?
Yes.
(The fresh fatsia shoots smell of dirt.)
(It's crunchy.)
- It's bitter if you eat it raw. - Yes.
You should parboil it.
It must not be that bitter.
It's bitter.
- I knew it. - It just hit him.
(He puts the fatsia shoots to the side.)
I had fatsia shoots today. My goodness.
What was that?
- I'm relating to him. - She's asking what that was.
- I'm relating to him.
Why?
(An endless variety of ingredients are taken out of the refrigerator.)
I'll need four.
(Raw chicken wings)
(He takes out as much as he needs.)
(Rustling)
(Taking plastic bags out)
- Are you saving it for later? - Yes.
I do the same thing.
- Are you relating to him? - Yes, through rice.
(Being the good housekeeper, he packs the leftover ingredients.)
(He ties it tightly before putting it in the freezer.)
What time will she come?
What?
(Bo Hyun kept checking the clock.)
(Glancing at the clock)
- 12:17 p.m. - Someone is coming.
- His girlfriend? - Someone must be coming.
(Is someone coming over?)
Yes, it's the most special person to me.
I've been waiting for her to come.
I asked that person...
if she wants Chinese, Korean or Western food.
She surprised me by saying she wants Western food.
So I prepared my own course menu.
- What are you going to cook? - Western food?
(First step, Appetizer)
(Preparing a fatsia shoot salad)
(Second step, Main dish)
(Putting slits in the chicken wings)
(Adding olive oil to the pan)
(Minced garlic, chicken, )
(soy sauce is added to the pan.)
- Wow. - Wow.
- You must be a good cook. - You're making your own sauce.
I'm not good. I just enjoy it.
(He suddenly brings out cola.)
I know you're supposed to use soy sauce and chicken together.
- That's right. - It tastes like braised chicken.
- That's right. - It's delicious.
- I often cook it when camping. - I see.
- You even have star anise? - Yes, I do.
- He cooks often. - If you buy star anise,
it's something you can always use.
- Is that used for Chinese food? - Yes.
This all seems unfamiliar to you, Dam Bi.
- No one close to me... - You don't know anyone?
Is a good cook.
I heard you want to meet a man who is a good cook.
Yes, it would be nice since I'm a bad cook.
- What if he uses star anise? - That's cool.
- Kian84. - Bo Hyun,
what do you think of women who are bad cooks?
I prefer cooking for others.
- That's perfect. - I like watching others eat.
Kian84 is a good cook too, Dam Bi.
(I see.)
Forget it.
Goodness.
- That's a very different response. - Totally different.
(After finishing cooking the soy sauce and cola chicken, )
(the next ingredient he uses to cook...)
(is shrimp.)
(He seasons the shrimp and leaves it.)
(He takes out butter.)
Let's see.
That must be fattening.
- That looks delicious. - There is no way it can taste bad.
- It looks delicious. - You're skewering it?
(He finishes making garlic butter shrimp skewers.)
That's ready.
(The dishes are almost ready.)
She isn't coming early.
- She's here. - She's here.
(Today's guest is here.)
Wait a minute!
It's either Dam Bi or Do Yeon if she's tall.
I was so excited.
(The special guest he will treat to a course lunch)
(Who is the person he is excited to see?)
Hi, Son.
- Your mother? - How is she so young?
- She's tall. - Yes, she is.
- How old is she? - She's in her 50s.
- Her 50s? - Yes.
- She's so young. - She looks young.
She had me when she was 20.
- She told me not to say this. - Wait.
People must take her as your older sister.
- I bet. - That's right.
- Some even think we're a couple. - I bet.
It's my mom.
I've never invited her over...
after moving out.
- Not once? - This is her first time visiting.
Before now?
I was struggling alone...
to achieve my dreams in Seoul.
(He sounds so gallant.)
- That was funny. - He's a bright young man.
It was like a line out of a teen drama.
He was struggling alone to achieve his dreams.
You're ready to fight anything in the world.
"Come at me, World!"
I'm going to become the wind.
People rarely say they struggled alone.
"You're doing great!"
(They are shocked.)
"You're doing great!"
(I didn't say anything.)
"I'm Ahn Bo Hyun!"
- I got goosebumps. - Me too.
- To achieve his dreams. - The viewers are different ages.
- That's why you said that? - Yes.
I don't think I had the life parents hope for their children.
The place I was sleeping was too small.
I thought my family members would be heartbroken...
if they came and saw it.
I didn't want her to see me like that and didn't invite her.
I don't feel embarrassed anymore,
so I invited her over.
Hi, Son.
What are you cooking?
- It smells nice, right? - What?
- You said you're hungry. - Yes.
You decorated your house well.
It's hot, isn't it? It's the hottest day so far.
(He uses a dialect when speaking to his mom.)
This is my mom.
You're a man from Busan.
You think so?
- So much liquor... - So much liquor?
(She inspects each room.)
Take your mask off.
- It's okay at home. - Can I?
- Can I take this off? - Yes.
Give it to me.
Why do you have so many comic books?
- Wash your hands. - All right.
- Where is the bathroom? - This way.
(His bedroom is tidy with nothing to pick on.)
Wait.
Why is a man's room so cute?
- It's been like this for a while. - She's so tough.
It's quite hot.
Do you keep the lights on during the day and waste electricity?
It'll turn off on its own.
It turns on and off by itself.
It's nice and clean.
- You said you're hungry. - Yes.
You're trying to take her out.
- What did you cook? - She nags so much.
(She ends the tour of the house.)
It's a course menu.
- What? - Appetizer.
(It begins now.)
I prepared a salad for the first course.
Appetizer.
This is the appetizer.
- The color looks weird? - It's a salad.
My stylist gave me fatsia shoots,
so I added it.
It looks spoiled.
She's straightforward.
- She is. - Yes, she is.
(He almost got hurt.)
- He's hurt. - Try it first.
It tastes good.
- She's having a fatsia shoot. - Those are fatsia shoots.
Those are fatsia shoots.
Can you eat it raw?
- You should've blanched it. - Don't eat it.
It's okay. It tastes fine this way.
- Eat just a little. - Okay.
It's almost done.
This is a course meal. You don't eat much of each dish.
You should eat a little of each.
How many dishes are included?
1, 2, 3...
Four dishes.
- You cooked many dishes alone. - Really?
I'm worried you might not be able to try everything.
My goodness. You must have...
worked really hard since early this morning.
What does that mean?
That expression means...
- "tremendously", I guess. - Right.
- Doesn't "se" mean the tongue? - As in tough or hard.
- "You had your tongue pulled out." - Really?
- I see. - "I'll pull your tongue out."
The tongue? I see.
But why did you look at me while saying that?
I didn't say anything.
(I'm sorry.)
(Glancing)
(She has a bite of fatsia shoots after glancing at him.)
- She's eating with a gusto. - She's only eating fatsia shoots.
(It must be bitter, but she's eating enthusiastically.)
It must be bitter since she's eating it raw.
(She's neutralizing the bitterness with a cherry tomato.)
(Looking around)
(Eye contact)
What's that cushion?
Why does he look like Gung Ye?
- That's popular these days. - Yes, a color-changing cushion.
Why did they make you look like Gung Ye?
Sweep it upward.
Try sweeping in both directions.
What do you mean? The cushion?
- Right, upward. - Sweep it upward.
She doesn't know what that means.
Sweep it upward.
Put your hands up. Okay.
What do you mean?
No...
Sweep my face upward.
No.
Brush my face with your hand like this.
(Swinging her hand up and down)
(I can't believe her.)
Why?
Oh, I get it.
(Sweeping)
(Oh, I get it.)
I see now. It has a few different images.
Not a few.
Just one.
But you looked like Gung Ye earlier.
You can make me look like Gung Ye.
Oh, like this? I see.
(Oh, that's how it's done.)
- That's how it's done. - Yes.
(Did they realize it now too?)
- Oh, you didn't know. - I didn't know.
- That's how it works. - I didn't know either.
- Really? - I didn't know either.
- What's that? - I like it.
(Sweeping)
Why can't I make you look like Gung Ye again?
Oh, no.
His eye... Gosh. What's going on?
Oh, my. He's so handsome.
What did you say?
Nothing.
(She's pretending she didn't say anything.)
- She's loving but hides it. - I really couldn't hear her.
I can't believe she lifted it up.
I couldn't even imagine that.
Try this. It might be a little too salty.
Try it.
It might be a little too salty, but try it.
The part covered with cheese should be less salty.
- It looks delicious. - It looks good.
He's a good cook.
You would be unsure when you see the cooking process,
but you would find it tasty when you try it.
I cooked a chicken wing dish that goes well with cooked rice.
(She's having a bite without rice.)
- It looks delicious. - It looks delicious.
Gosh, it looks delicious.
(Savoring)
(He's already smiling proudly.)
Hey, it's too salty, indeed.
Oh, my. She's so cool-headed.
(She keeps complaining about the food after her first bite.)
Eat a small piece with cheese at a time.
Shall I heat up a bowl of rice for you?
No, I'll eat pasta.
But I'm not making pasta...
with cream or tomato sauce.
Then with what sauce?
I'm making oil pasta called aglio e olio.
(Anxious)
You should be making what I like.
What do you like?
I don't know what kind you like.
I don't like oil pasta so much.
Then what do you like?
They sell good pasta sauces these days.
- Mothers like pasta with a sauce. - That's right, they do.
My mom said, "Did you pour the whole bottle of oil or what?"
But I'll try it since my son is making it for me.
I'll try it.
I'm cooking for you for the first time in my life.
I know. That's why I'm going to try it.
(She said it bluntly.)
(And then, she's eating another bite.)
I guess she likes it.
Shall I heat up a bowl of rice for you?
Why do you keep saying that?
It's because the chicken is too salty for you to eat.
I'll try your pasta first.
(They may seem indifferent, but they are actually caring.)
- Why is it so hard to grate? - Oh, no. My goodness.
(He's moving his hands busily to redeem his mistake.)
(He's paying the utmost attention to the 3rd dish.)
Awesome.
(Meanwhile, his mother is eating the chicken unlike what she said.)
Why is it so hard to grate?
She's enjoying it.
It must be good.
(She's enjoying the cola chicken without rice.)
(The salty taste makes her crave cold water.)
Don't force yourself to eat the chicken since it's too salty.
Sorry? No, it's not that salty.
It's just a bit salty.
I think it would go really well with rice.
(He's serving the next dish to continue the momentum.)
That's a great course menu.
- It looks delicious. - Garlic butter shrimp.
- I made shrimp skewers. - That looks the best.
I'm hungry.
How do you like the shrimp?
- What's wrong? - You don't like it?
It smells like it's burnt.
- What? - I intended to...
- It's a smoky flavor. - Add a smoky flavor.
It's not burnt.
I used a torch to add a smoky flavor.
- How could you say that? - Chefs at famous restaurants...
do that by themselves.
I prefer the chicken to the shrimp.
The pasta... I mean, I won't fail to make pasta tasty. Wait a while.
(Here goes today's highlight.)
- This is making me nervous. - It's hard to make aglio e olio.
It's not easy to make it good enough for elderly people.
(He's adding pepper to counteract the oiliness.)
(Cheese is used in almost every dish.)
She didn't like any of the dishes I made.
We should've just gone out to have some sashimi that she likes.
What are you talking about?
(He's serving the 4th dish in disappointment.)
Look at that. It looks delicious.
- It looks tasty. - He did a great job.
Exactly.
(Bo Hyun's course meal is done.)
Let's try it.
Don't eat it like you do jjajangmyeon.
Use a fork.
Can't I do as I always do?
(He's helping her with an indifferent look on his face.)
- Thanks. - Eat a little as it might be salty.
(Looking at her)
(She's trying oil pasta for the 1st time in her life.)
(How does it taste?)
It's not too salty.
I guess it tastes okay.
She means it's delicious.
- I added a lot of pasta water. - It's your first time, right?
Do you have any kimchi?
(Dizzy)
That's why she looked at him.
(What's wrong this time?)
It's a bit oily.
- Elderly people need kimchi. - That's true.
It's the first time I've ever cooked a meal for you.
How can you say it's not tasty?
But there's no rice.
(That's a lame pun.)
I know there's no rice.
To be honest, the chicken is a bit salty,
but it would go well with rice.
That's how I think of this dish.
However, I don't really like the shrimp.
I like the salad.
(She likes the fatsia shoots salad.)
And the pasta is much better than I expected.
You should've chosen Korean food if you were going to be like this.
Why did you choose Western food?
I thought you knew how to enjoy Western food.
I mean, pasta is a basic dish.
I expected...
you to serve steak rather than chicken.
When she said Western cuisine,
she meant a course meal with steak.
(Dark chicken pieces?)
I can finish this.
- She didn't like it. - That's a lot of noodles, indeed.
(He ended up bringing kimchi.)
Why?
Please eat some kimchi.
- Do you want one too? - No, I'm fine.
She's eating it right away.
- That's the best. - It looks like a good combination.
Young radish kimchi goes best with pasta.
- Are you serious? - Of course.
- It goes well with pasta. - Cover it with pasta noodles.
- It tastes amazing. - It's tasty.
- That's true. - Make it red.
Like tomato sauce.
- It looks delicious. - It's really good.
This suits my taste.
I guess you've been living in Seoul long enough.
My food preference has changed.
You dip sundae in makjang, right?
- People in Busan do that. - I used to do the same.
But I dip it in salt now.
That's because you've been living in Seoul for so long.
- I've become like them. - Me too.
- Right? - You have changed.
- You've become like Seoul people. - Of course, he has.
There aren't many restaurants that serve pork gukbap in Seoul.
So I have sundaeguk with perilla seeds instead.
They sell 80-cent coffee in Busan.
We have it here in Seoul too.
- "We have it here in Seoul too." - It started here.
My mom bragged about it.
Is that right?
I'm sure they started in Seoul and expanded to Busan.
After we finish eating...
There's a famous area with a lot of cafes in Seongsu-dong.
We'll take a walk around the area.
And then, we'll take my car...
to a place with a good view of the Han River.
We'll go to Yeouido.
You said you wanted to ride a bicycle.
But will you be okay? You have a back problem.
You'll be the one to give me a ride.
- I will? - I'll just sit in the back seat.
- You mean, a two-person bicycle? - A couple's bicycle?
- That's right. - A couple's bicycle?
You operate the bicycle.
I will just pretend I'm pedaling.
- "Pretending to be pedaling". - She's like a little girl.
Riding a couple's bicycle with your mother...
- Awesome. - Awesome.
My mom always says she wants to stay at home.
"Let's not go far away from home."
My mom always says she wants to go to a department store.
- My mom likes it the most too. - "Seoul is the best for shopping."
There are no department stores in Mokpo.
I meet my mom at a department store whenever I go to Busan.
(She puts her spoon down.)
(Glancing at him nervously)
I'm done eating.
- Oh, dear. - She's being too honest.
I think I'm done eating too.
The pasta is quite good. It's tasty.
Eat this later with rice.
- "I won't eat it." - She doesn't like it.
I shouldn't tell others that I'm a good cook.
- Right? - What?
Hold on.
- Shall I do the dishes? - No.
We have to eat our appetizer.
- We can eat that later. - No. Let's eat it now.
We are having a full course meal today.
- She has to like the dessert. - I know, right?
We ate a lot of salty food.
- So you need something sweet. - I agree.
- Fruit is the best for mothers. - I agree.
My gosh. Why am I so exhausted?
- Let me help you. - No. I am not physically tired.
What time did you wake up to make all these?
Thank you.
(In reality, it is hard to please your mother's taste buds.)
- I was emotionally hurt. - You're emotionally hurt.
It takes a long time to enjoy a course meal.
You have to succeed this time.
- You can never fail with this. - I agree.
That will definitely be delicious.
- I'll be drinking this alone. - Cheers.
- You are amazing. - I have never done this before.
- You are very warm. - Yes.
It's sweet, isn't it?
- Did you add syrup to this? - No. It's strawberry extract.
- I see. Strawberry extract. - Yes.
(She doesn't comment on the drink after asking about the ingredients.)
Try this.
(She hesitates.)
You don't have to if you don't want to.
That is sweet, but this is refreshing.
It must have been sour.
(She grimaces.)
I enjoy sour drinks.
(But her facial expression tells us the truth.)
We enjoy sour drinks.
I don't think so.
(She overcomes the sour flavor with motherly love.)
Let's go out. I'll be back after changing my clothes.
Please eat and drink those.
Must I drink this?
(He is back after dressing up for the date.)
I'm ready.
(He is back after changing his clothes.)
You look good.
- I think this is good enough. - Now you look like a model.
Now it feels like we match one another.
- You're right! - Let's go.
You are wearing matching clothes with your mother.
Your clothes are matching.
- We're wearing matching clothes? - Something like that.
I have to link arms with you all day long then.
(I have to link arms with you all day long then.)
Let's go.
(They set out on their date while wearing matching clothes.)
Let's go.
(The mother is 170cm and the son is 188cm.)
(They make the street look like a runway.)
I have never imagined that I'll come here with you.
This is a famous street in this neighborhood.
I see.
Look around. It's pretty, isn't it?
- Where is this? - He said it's Seongsu-dong.
That's Seongsu-dong.
That place is not only famous but has many pretty things too.
That is definitely a famous place.
Can I link arms with you?
What are you doing? There are many people around us.
- This is the best. - There are many things to see.
So I brought a camera with me to take pictures.
This is a film camera.
What about a picture over here? I'll take your picture.
It's not, "meeting you".
It should be, "giving birth to you".
Come here. You should stand a bit more to the left.
Here? To the right.
Please wait for a moment.
(The first picture is taken in front of the perfect phrase.)
Can I do this?
Here I go. 1, 2.
(The best thing I did was to meet you.)
That is a beautiful picture!
We have to take a picture together.
1, 2, 3.
(It's his first picture with his mother.)
Would you like to act cute?
(He found the second place to take his mother's picture.)
Pretending to be cute.
1, 2, 3.
Your mother knows how to pose.
Done.
(You're acting cute although you are actually cute.)
She doesn't look awkward anymore since you're now outdoors.
Yes. She looks very natural now.
I'm cute, right?
- No. - What?
I look young for my age, don't I?
I wanted to print those pictures.
I rarely took pictures with my mother.
There are not many occasions to take pictures together.
Perhaps when I was in kindergarten?
There are no pictures of us together up until I was in grade 1 or 2.
- You just stop after that. - Yes, you're right.
- You stop after that age. - Yes, that's right.
There are no pictures together after that age.
That is why I took pictures with a film camera.
(They go for a date on the street while linking arms.)
Look at that child!
- He is adorable! - He's cute.
I love children.
The time has come for you to get married.
(The time has come for you to get married.)
- Mother! My mother! - Please get married this year.
(She's shocked by the talk of marriage and seeing her mother.)
- It has begun. - She has become an icon.
- For real. - The marriage icon.
- My goodness.
My mother never said that before.
I think she saw Dam Bi's episode.
- This is Dam Bi's influence? - My episode?
Recently, everybody who is not married would talk of Dam Bi.
"Even Dam Bi is not married yet!"
- "You have to get married." - "I'll get married after Dam Bi!"
- She is an icon. - That's what she is now.
- I guess I need to get married. - She has to get married first.
- My goodness. - I'll get married if Dam Bi does.
- Why must you say that? - Me too.
- Me too.
You are very nasty.
Me too.
What is wrong with all of you?
I will get married.
Do you want coffee? Would you like some coffee before we walk around?
You said that you need to drink at least one cup of Americano a day.
Let's drink. I'm thirsty.
Let's drink here. Shall we sit inside?
I'd like to order an iced Americano, and I'll have the same one too.
Yes. Thank you.
(They take a picture while waiting for their coffee.)
How shall we pose for our picture?
Shall we take a picture of me punching you?
She's cute.
- 1, 2, 3. - Both of you are like friends.
Three.
- My gosh. - That is a nice picture.
1, 2, 3.
- You should smile. - Let's do this.
(Let's make a heart.)
- I don't want to. - Let's do this.
She keeps on wanting to do things that we never did before.
Your mother is very adorable.
- You're very nice. - Yes, he is.
(He pretends to be forced to make a heart.)
1, 2.
(A heart)
This looks like a movie.
(These pictures were taken with a film camera...)
(of a movie-like date.)
(Both of them are exclaiming.)
Were you eating hangover soup?
Why did you react like that?
I think film cameras are amazing.
It adds a different vibe to it.
No. It's because he is handsome.
Is that so?
(I see.)
- I see. - Why?
- Why did you say that? - But that's the truth.
Both you and Kian84...
can take sweet pictures with your mother.
Have you taken pictures with your mother before?
No, I haven't.
Take a picture with her and upload it online.
- That's right. - We have to do that?
- Yes. - Yes. It's a challenge.
- Upload it. It's a challenge. - What?
Challenge to take a picture with my mother?
- Yes. - That's not bad at all.
- Upload it. - That sounds good.
- It's for Parents' Day. - This is a valid reason...
to take a picture with my mother.
(A few days later)
(Kian94 is doing the Home Alone Challenge.)
Like this. We have to make a heart.
Like this?
It has to be like this.
- It has to look like a heart. - Like this?
- Yes. One. - It looks like a heart now.
(Home Alone Challenge, I love you, Mom and Dad.)
(Na Rae attempts to make a heart too.)
(Is that supposed to be a heart?)
You have to do it like this.
(They try to do it again.)
What's wrong with my hand?
(Home Alone Challenge, I love you, Mom and Dad.)
Do it like this.
Put your hand over your head. This has to be seen in the camera.
- Like this. Then it's like a heart. - Like this?
(Home Alone Challenge, I love you, Mom and Dad.)
(Stop talking about marriage.)
(Home Alone Challenge, A family of three's model pose)
(Home Alone Challenge, I love you, Mom and Dad.)
(This is a meaningful event.)
(Home Alone Challenge, I love you, Mom and Dad.)
Let's walk for a bit longer.
After that, let's go to the Han River.
- To ride a bicycle? - Yes.
You're going to ride the bicycle?
You should have thought of other sons and just stopped there.
Let's go. Let's continue walking. Let's go.
It's not windy anymore.
(They move on to the next location.)
- It's Crong! - It's still there.
(They listen to the "Itaewon Class" soundtrack on their drive.)
(He is singing.)
(Hey!)
(She chimes in again.)
(They arrive while singing happily.)
The weather is amazing.
There are many places that rent out bicycles over there.
- Are you nervous? - Yes, I am.
How long has it been since you rode this? 30 years?
It's been more than 30 years!
I had no idea that my mother knows how to ride a bicycle.
There's so much that we don't know about our parents.
- We don't know them. - There's so much we don't know.
Just one moment.
(He holds the bicycle so that it won't shake.)
Okay. We got this.
You shouldn't cycle. If not, your knees will hurt.
Okay.
- Are you ready? - Yes.
- The weather is beautiful. - Look at the sky.
- The weather looks great. - You're okay, aren't you?
Yes. Don't cycle too fast.
I'll go slow.
You don't have to do a thing.
I will cycle.
Just trust in me.
I'm sure your mother would feel that you have grown up now.
She must have been very happy.
(A date on a bicycle on a sunny day.)
- This does feel good. - Sorry?
(She laughs like a young girl.)
This is fun, isn't it?
I can't see what is in front.
- Her view is blocked. - She's right.
She can't see anything as he has broad shoulders.
You don't have to look in front. Just look to the sides.
It's no longer scary, is it?
This is nice.
This is exciting and refreshing.
The breeze is cool.
This is nice.
This is perfect in this weather.
This must be why people come to the Han River.
She was so excited,
and I hadn't seen her like that for a long time.
I was happy but felt something tug at my heart as well.
This will be a lasting memory.
(A moment they will both remember forever)
- Should we take a break? - Let's stop over there.
You're very sweet.
That looks fun.
It's nothing special, right?
(They park the bike after riding for a while.)
- My hair is flat, isn't it? - Yes.
Look at me.
(He is sweet and helps her revive her hair.)
There you go.
Stand there. I'll take a photo of you.
(To remember his Han River date with his mom)
What should I do?
Does that look okay?
Here we go.
Photos last the longest.
(Riding a bike for the first time in some 30 years)
(With my son)
That was fun.
(They sit back and enjoy the view of the river.)
- Look. - That's where you board the cruise.
It's nice to go on a cruise with your parents.
Won't it be nice to go on it when we're here?
Let's go.
You can watch the sunset.
It's the perfect time.
- I've never been on it. - Me neither.
(The sky slowly turns dark.)
Won't you be cold?
We're even going on a cruise.
It feels like we're going on a trip.
Wow, it's the 63 Building.
Doesn't it look like Bo Hyun is more excited than his mother?
I didn't think it would be that nice.
It's reflecting the sun.
Stand there.
(It's time to take photos again.)
That's a great photo. One more.
Again?
1, 2...
- It looks nice. - You need the 63 Building in it.
- That's a really good shot. - Yes, it is.
- Should I take one for you? - Yes.
I'll take one for you.
(I have the camera.)
Okay, 1, 2, 3.
(She is satisfied.)
It's moving.
(The cruise starts moving.)
It's moving.
It moves very slowly.
- Does it return here? - Yes, it's a round-trip.
It's so pretty.
It looks so nice.
Look over here.
This is prettier.
(This is prettier.)
Yes, it is.
(Bo Hyun is excited.)
It's the National Assembly building.
(He points everything out for his mother.)
Is it that one?
Famous people live there.
Where is it?
Hannam-dong near Yongsan.
(Laughing)
We have a few here.
- We're neighbors. - They're neighbors.
- They're famous. - We're famous.
Famous people live there.
(Looking around)
There is an area called Sillim-dong over there.
It's where I first lived.
- Really? - Then I lived in Hongdae...
and Mangwon-dong.
- You moved around a lot. - Yes.
I pretty much lived everywhere.
I lived everywhere.
There are so many houses in Seoul, but not one is mine.
It was tough.
I couldn't afford the rent of 250 dollars with a deposit of 4,000.
I was 2,000 dollars short and asked Dad to lend it to me,
but he said no.
Why?
He probably didn't have any money since I asked all of a sudden.
I remember it.
(Sighing)
This breaks my heart.
This must be the first time she heard it.
There was no need to tell her.
(She ends up...)
She must feel heartbroken.
(in tears.)
- They think you're doing well. - That's right.
(I thought you were doing well.)
It must have been a struggle.
Were you ever upset with or disappointed in me?
No, not at all.
It's the same for everyone around me.
(He endured the growing pains by himself.)
I wasn't able to go home during a holiday when I first moved here...
and had a part-time job as a delivery man.
- I couldn't go. - Really?
That was the hardest time of my life.
I went home after work,
and the house was flooded with water up to my ankles.
- That was hard. - It was from a typhoon.
I even thought of moving back home.
(This is her first time hearing her son's story.)
Gosh.
It broke my heart.
He rarely tells me when he's in pain.
I read about his life in articles.
That's how I learned what he did.
I knew he was going through a hard time,
but I didn't know it was that hard.
(Bo Hyun was on his own without any support.)
It makes me sad.
Goodness.
My goodness.
I wonder if it could have been easier...
if he had parents that are better-off.
Gosh.
(He feels bad.)
I'm proud of him...
for making it this far.
I'm impressed with his achievements.
- That's you, Bo Hyun? - Wow.
(From a boxer to a model...)
(to an actor)
(He grew slowly...)
(and steadily.)
You really worked hard.
You went through many hardships.
(Was it tough by yourself?)
It was difficult,
and it was painful at times.
I didn't think it would help to share it with my mom.
(If I told my mom, )
She'd just worry more.
(she'd worry more.)
You can't tell your parents.
I don't tell my parents...
- how I lived in the past. - Me neither.
- I never told them it's tough. - Right.
It just saddens them.
I wanted to just tell her the good things.
I wanted to show her...
how well I was doing.
(I wanted to show her how well I was doing.)
You did a good job, Son. Let me give you a hug.
My goodness.
It's okay now.
(You did a good job. Let me give you a hug.)
- You'll do well. - Of course.
- It's just the beginning. - If you work hard,
I know you'll do well.
I just have to continue working hard...
like I did when I first started.
Like when it all began.
(I'm proud of you, )
(my son.)
I think I reached my goals...
a bit faster than I thought.
So I am deeply moved.
(I'm grateful for achieving so much this fast.)
Grandma loves it too.
She always turns Home Alone on...
at 11p.m. on Fridays and asks why I'm not on it.
She saw Sung Hoon on the show and told me I was on it...
and asked if I went to work in the fields.
(She asks if I went to work in the fields.)
(Laughing)
She confuses you...
- with Sung Hoon. - You're both handsome.
- They both have broad shoulders. - Yes, and they're both tall.
He's on the show now. This is Ahn Bo Hyun.
It's so pretty.
The Han River is gorgeous.
- It feels like we're in Hong Kong. - Yes.
- Have you been to Hong Kong? - No.
Then why did you say that?
- She must have seen it often. - Right. I was surprised.
It feels like Hong Kong.
I've been there once.
- Why are you bragging to your mom? - I know you went.
You didn't even buy me a gift.
In Hong Kong?
- I bought you a bag. - What?
Which bag?
- Is that one from Hong Kong? - Yes.
I bought you a designer bag.
(He is a good son.)
- I'd made up my mind to buy it. - I see.
Good job.
She asked if it was fake.
(She asked if it was fake.)
If it's fake?
- It's cold. - It's cold.
(They move to avoid the strong wind.)
It's cold.
(Glancing at her)
It's suddenly cold.
(He takes something out.)
(An envelope)
Really?
- Cash? - An envelope?
Really?
(Her face lights up.)
Don't count it. It might blow away in the wind.
She suddenly feels warm.
(Smiling brightly)
- Thank you. - She's counting it.
(She checks the amount.)
There's a letter in it.
- Really? - A letter?
A letter?
(Marveling)
I only wrote to her when I was in the army.
(His writing fills the paper.)
She must've been ecstatic.
- It's more valuable than money. - That's right.
Yes.
(What did Bo Hyun write?)
To my mom Kim Hye Jung, the woman I love,
(She is already moved to tears from the start.)
(Stop it.)
- Already? - Oh, no.
She only read the first line.
(She is moved after reading the first line.)
What is it?
(She is overwhelmed at her son's hand-written letter.)
"For some reason..."
"Just thinking about what to write makes me feel like crying."
(He's smiling with embarrassment.)
I didn't know what to do.
"I haven't been a good son to you..."
"or visited you often saying I was pursuing my dream."
"It doesn't feel real that I'm already 33."
(He's looking away because he can't look at her.)
That makes me want to cry too.
"Mom, since you gave birth to me when you were 20,"
"I feel like your youth has passed..."
"while you were raising me without even knowing what your dream was."
"The thought made me so upset."
I fully understand how he feels.
"When I was a little boy, I was embarrassed because you were..."
"much younger than other kids' moms."
I felt that way because I was too young.
When she attended school events like a graduation...
or when my friends see my mom,
she looked young. And since she is 170cm tall,
and I was taller than other kids just like her,
I was afraid they might have a negative view of her.
That was how I felt.
But now, it's the opposite.
I feel more apologetic to her.
I...
Well...
Gosh.
I wonder...
(Whenever he thinks of his mother...)
what my mom's dream was...
and how she spent...
her youth, and that always made me feel bad.
My gosh.
Anyway... Anyway...
She must've had a lot of dreams if she was only 20.
We all grew up well because our mothers...
- sacrificed their youth. - That's true.
(My mom's youth and her sacrifice made me who I am now.)
I realized how selfish I was,
and I felt apologetic to her.
(I felt apologetic to my mom.)
"But now, I'm so happy that you're young and healthy."
"I hope you stay as healthy as you are now."
It's a great thing.
You can see your mother longer than others do.
(It's great. You can see your mother longer than others do.)
"You always tell me not to say it,"
"but I'm always grateful to you."
"I'll be better to you."
"From your loving son, Ahn Bo Hyun".
(He's acting cheerful.)
Why are you crying?
(Bo Hyun comforts his mother.)
Why are you crying?
I should be apologizing to you...
because I haven't done much for you.
Thank you, Bo Hyun,
for growing up so well.
You should come to see me on Parents' Day every year.
Okay.
I'm glad you invited her.
That's so touching.
I told her how I really feel for the first time.
I don't think I knew much about my mother.
After spending a day with her,
I thought I should spend more quality time with her.
I had such a meaningful time.
(I had such a meaningful time.)
You brat, you made me cry.
(You brat, you made me cry.)
I'm so cold.
Are you?
(He's holding her in his arms tightly.)
It was hard to make it this far.
You did a good job.
Come to see me often.
Okay. I'll do that.
I'll stay at your house for a few days next time.
(Mom, I'm Sorry And I Love You)
In today's video, I met someone I really missed.
- Did she meet her old teacher? - Her old teacher?
- What? - My goodness.
(The person drew the female cast members' attention.)
I think we need to play that song as background music.
(Meanwhile, the male cast members keep a watchful eye on him.)
(Scanning him from head to toe)
(Forget the days when I walked on the runway topless.)
(He's opening the door.)
(He became successful and returned in glory wearing a shirt and coat.)
(Model Bang)
(This man looks serious.)
(What's wrong with him?)
(Dhalsim's solo runway performance with a serious look)
(In this moment, all eyes are on my clothes and my body.)
This is so unexpected.
Why is he doing this?
(We're the ones who feel embarrassed.)
(Meanwhile, this man seems to idolize him.)
(I want to try that too.)
- What are you doing? - He's carrying a loan shark's bag.
I can't believe this.
What is wrong with him?
You didn't put the shoes on properly.
What's with his shoes?
- These shoes... - That's part of his clothes.
What do you think of our outfits?
Why are you laughing?
- He's laughing because of you. - Your face is too visible.
My face... Of course, you can see my face.
Be honest with me. Your ears hurt, don't they?
Yes, my ears hurt.
- My head hurts too. - You shouldn't take it off.
Na Rae, your face became pale.
Is it because it's too tight?
(It's effective skin brightening.)
(The Warm Spring Day That Makes My Heart Flutter)
"The Warm Spring Day That Makes My Heart Flutter".
- It became so much warmer. - It's very warm now.
- Let's go. - Where is she going?
- Her car... - She bought a new car.
Yes, I bought a new car.
- I'm glad you did. - What nice weather.
Where is she heading?
Well... I...
I always wanted to learn to do something.
And I'm going to meet my teacher to learn it.
I really wanted to learn it.
(She's on her way to meet her teacher.)
(Driving while enjoying the scent of spring makes her excited.)
Okay.
Where is this place?
(Who is her teacher?)
(Dam Bi is waiting for her teacher.)
- Mom. - "Mom"?
Is your mother your teacher?
- It's really her mother. - Yes, it's my mom.
- You all know my mom, right? - It's nice to see you, ma'am.
- It's hot, right? - Yes, it is. Let's go.
You must be tired from coming all the way here.
The traffic was really bad.
You should've left home earlier.
If you wanted to shop at the market too,
you should've arrived on time. I was waiting for you.
Anyway, I can't believe you want to learn how to make kimchi.
"Kimchi"?
- And you came to shop for that. - Is she going to make kimchi?
It's hard to believe.
It's been a long time.
- Dam Bi. - Yes?
- I think you should learn it... - Yes.
After you learn how to fry an egg.
- Exactly. And making ramyeon too. - I mean...
You don't even know how to fry an egg properly.
You walk on this street every day.
That's true. I always shop at this market.
This must be it.
- Where? - Here.
- Oh, my. - Shopping there must be fun.
My mom has been shopping there for 10 years.
They have a lot of delicious food here.
They sell vegetables and...
Let's buy an apron here.
We should wear one each,
- and do it. - An apron?
- You need an apron. - Hello.
- Right. You need it. - Do you have aprons?
We do.
Those are the aprons.
Do you have any that you tie around your waist?
She's being too idealistic.
You clearly have never made kimchi.
- It will get all over your tummy. - Your tummy will be covered.
- You know now. - I don't care about that.
I just hated the design.
Does it make sense that she chose to wear a white shirt that day?
It's ridiculous.
I just wore the clothes I like.
- She's going to draw on it. - Right.
I told you. She's like drawing paper.
- My goodness. Wait. - Do you want this one?
The green color's nice.
- That's lovely. - It makes you look young.
- This? - Is this 15 dollars?
- 17 dollars. - What?
Why is it so expensive?
- This one is expensive. - My gosh. Is it?
Mine was five dollars.
It's because it only covers half of your body.
I will pay.
- Thank you. - Here.
- That would be 22 dollars. - Okay.
Yours is cheap. Mine is expensive.
- It's not expensive. - I should've bought that one too.
- It's fine. - She's sorry to spend my money.
I shouldn't make my daughter spend a lot of money.
They say they're sorry, but it puts a smile on their faces.
- Right? - Like this.
Right.
I should get your autograph, Dam Bi.
Since you are here.
She's giving an autograph.
(Proud)
I didn't know my mom was so happy.
- Thank you. - Of course, she loves it.
People of Gil-dong are going to go crazy...
because a star's here.
(A star comes to Gil-dong.)
- Hey. Hey. - Yes. It's 10 dollars.
- She's close to everyone. - Come. Come here for a while.
- She knows too many shop owners. - She needs to show you to them.
We're here to do the groceries.
- My goodness. - They would go crazy.
(She's starstruck by Dam Bi.)
- Hello. - I always buy things from them.
(It's like a guerrilla fan meeting.)
- Bye. - Hello.
I once went to the shopping district where my dad works.
And it was just like that.
He would stop people on the street and say,
"Come and look. Look at him. Look. It's him, you see?"
- That was so funny. - Parents...
are all very similar.
You said she was going to come, and she actually came.
- She must've bragged every time. - We are going to...
- get groceries and do that. - I didn't know about it.
In Jeolla Province, everyone understands what "that" means.
- Take care. - Bye.
Ms. Chili powder. Hello.
I came to the market with my daughter to buy...
- some things. - Hello.
- She knows everybody.
(It's like a tour concert.)
Hello. Good luck.
- Your mom is really cute. - She's proud of you.
How have you been?
(The star's tour concert continues.)
Hello there.
- Hello. - Hello.
It's like she's doing a campaign.
- She knows everyone. - She knows everyone.
- Hello. Did you just come? - She must have been...
She must have been very proud and happy.
- I've never seen her like that. - My goodness gracious.
- Hello. - Wait.
- I should get an autograph. - Hello.
Hello.
- I need a box of young radish. - Okay.
(She starts buying the ingredients for kimchi.)
It's nice.
- Is it fresh? - Yes, it is.
- Chili peppers? - We need chili peppers.
We'll grind this up.
- What else do we need? - I'm curious about her recipe.
We need to buy ginger and garlic too.
So many things go into it.
Why do you need so many things?
(What kind of kimchi will it become?)
(She's done buying all the ingredients.)
That would be 46 dollars.
I am curious to see what she does differently.
Are you done?
- Give them your autograph. - Do you want an autograph?
- Bring it to me. - Come on.
Get one for your mom.
Hello. What's your name?
- What is it? - Park So Yun.
- So Yun? - Yes.
(When the star signs an autograph...)
It makes her very happy.
She's watching me.
This is being a good daughter. You don't need anything else.
Here. Study hard.
Thank you. Thank you.
- Bye. - Bye.
- "Striving for public welfare".
What?
- Here. - Next campaign destination.
- Have you been well? - She must be famous in Gil-dong.
- Hello. - She knows everyone.
- Give me some meat. - Of course.
- For boiling. - Okay.
Delicious pork belly. Just a little bit though.
- I don't need too much. - She's going to make suyuk.
That's the best part of making kimchi.
- Of course. - You're going on TV.
- Hello. - This young man works hard.
That's why I always come here.
My heart is pounding right now.
(He's such a sweet guy.)
(They are nice and thick cuts.)
- That would be delicious. - That would be delicious.
She makes suyuk with pork belly.
(Every time they buy something, she has to give an autograph.)
- Thank you. - You must've signed a lot of them.
I signed a lot of autographs.
Let's eat tteokbokki here.
- That would be delicious. - Market tteokbokki is delicious.
Market tteokbokki is the best.
Wheat cakes are the best.
Shall we eat? Let's see if it's good.
- What? Is that everything? - No, we ordered fritters too.
- Right? - How about sundae?
We didn't order sundae.
- Sundae is a must. - Sundae is a must.
I am really craving sundae.
(What a sight.)
You're not wearing makeup.
Yes. I thought I'd look natural.
Why would I wear makeup when we're making kimchi?
It seems like she got feedback from somebody.
Wait. Dam Bi.
She clearly got feedback.
From who?
She never heard anything.
She just didn't wear makeup...
- because we were making kimchi. - She looks much more natural.
It's spicy though. It's nice and spicy.
This is gimbap.
(He gives them gimbap for free.)
- Thank you so much. - Enjoy.
Why did you give us so much?
(My goodness.)
He's giving us free gimbap because a star is here.
- A star? - You are a star.
Why would you call your daughter "a star"?
Everyone is calling you a star, so I am going to call you that too.
My goodness.
- There was so much pressure. - They're watching you eat.
Don't be pressured. Your mother is enjoying it.
Right.
She's really happy.
- Right. - She's enjoying everything.
- My mom seems to be enjoying it. - Yes. Because people are there,
instead of speaking quietly, she said,
"Because a star is here".
- The tone of her voice changed. - Her voice got higher.
"He's giving us free gimbap because a star is here."
Now, we bought all the ingredients for kimchi.
This is the first time ever... We are making kimchi together...
for the first time since you moved out.
I'm touched.
- She's touched. - Are you touched?
(She's proud of her daughter for wanting to make kimchi.)
You are happy, aren't you?
I'm happy.
(She enjoys it.)
I didn't know they sold gimbap too.
Thank you.
- I don't know about other things. - I haven't had it in a long time.
- They sold it in front of school. - It gives you brain freeze.
(Dam Bi loves it.)
It's so good.
I haven't had slushie in such a long time.
Your teeth are in bad shape.
It gives you a headache.
My mom can't bear drinking something cold.
- It's too cold. - I'm fine though.
Try getting old. Your teeth get weak.
I am getting old.
Your body parts break.
I'm already in my late 30s.
I am nearly 40.
- No. No. - Don't say that.
You should get married.
- You should get married. - Why did you do that?
Why did you mention your age?
I regretted it so much.
As soon as I mentioned my age,
she mentioned marriage right away.
It's automatic.
(1. She starts talking about age.)
(2. She suggests that she's old.)
(3. Then she goes on to nag her about marriage.)
(It's the marriage storytelling method.)
- If you get married tomorrow... - Tomorrow?
If you were to get married tomorrow,
- I could... - I can't just marry anyone.
Just get married, Dam Bi.
- Just get married? - Who am I to marry?
Just get married.
"Just get married."
- Then... - Get married first and think later.
- Just get married next May. - Right.
Just marry anyone.
(If my daughter were to get married tomorrow...)
I could die tonight.
- What? - Die tonight?
(It's a very aggressive move.)
I mean it.
- Are you the only child? - Yes.
- She's an only child. - I have a brother, you know.
- Right. - She's got nephews and nieces.
- Is he married? - I'm grateful to him.
He has three children.
- That's great. - My mom...
- She doesn't force you to marry. - Doesn't nag me.
That's why I wondered if you were the only child.
This is why I get all the nagging.
Do you want grandchildren too?
- Of course. - You do?
How lovely are the children?
- You are sitting in front of them. - There were children around.
- 2 daughters and 1 son. - 2 daughters and 1 son.
She's very precise.
- She's got a plan. - 2 daughters and 1 son.
Don't say hi. That will make her talk longer.
They are lovely. How lovely would they be if they were mine?
So get married.
- What's wrong with you? - You ask for it.
No!
- I don't know! - I think...
Dam Bi keeps provoking her.
It almost looks like you enjoy hearing her nag.
The subject matter changes every time,
but the story is the same.
Right.
What kind of man do you want me to marry?
- I am curious. - I just want...
someone who's not harsh.
I want someone who's sweet and kind.
He shouldn't be too handsome...
or too ugly.
I want someone who's got a warm heart.
That's hard. That's the toughest.
I want him to be like, "Mother! Mother!"
She wants a son-in-law like that.
You just want a son-in-law who will be nice to you.
"Mother! Mother!"
That's the toughest.
- I want someone who can cook. - Mom, where would I meet him?
I told you that I will be a matchmaker.
A matchmaker? Are you out of your mind?
Will the next episode be about the matchmaking process?
- Really? - She will go on a blind date.
- The thought makes me cringe. - We will watch Dam Bi's blind date.
Seriously.
(Will Dam Bi's date be revealed for the first time?)
Sung Hoon could burst in and grab Dam Bi.
"What are you doing here?"
- That's ridiculous. - He will drag you out...
since you don't want to be there.
Hold on. I don't want this to air.
The production crew will use an embarrassing footage of me.
(I am angry right now, so be quiet and follow me.)
"Come here!"
- There must be some scenes. - There is one scene I know.
- He kicks the threshold. - That's right.
(Here is the footage.)
(He kicks the folding screen, not the threshold.)
(Come here.)
Who are you?
He could enter as he plays the flute.
- He could play the flute. - Sung Hoon.
He could play the flute.
I don't want to meet someone through matchmaking.
- Then what? - I want to date...
- A love of at first sight? - Yes.
She is teasing Dam Bi.
Love at first sight!
- Her mom said that. - "Does anyone make you that way?"
(The way her mom says it is addictive.)
You are too old to want a man to fall in love with at first sight.
- My age is a different matter. - She is teaching Dam Bi.
If you get married, I would visit the Gildong Market...
and dance.
- She would dance. - Who was that famous singer?
- There are many famous singers. - BTS.
- BTS? - Will she do a BTS dance?
I will do a BTS dance.
(I will do a BTS dance.)
(Dancing)
(How will Dam Bi's mom recreate BTS' perfect group dance?)
- It will be a fascinating sight. - I know.
Now...
- Hey. - What?
- My goodness, hello. - Jeong! Jeong!
- It has been a while. - What brings you here?
Are you working today?
I see.
What's wrong with your face?
- What? - She didn't put on makeup.
I was only visiting the market.
I didn't want to outshine the celebrity.
She didn't want to outshine Dam Bi.
My mom doesn't usually say that.
I am letting my daughter shine.
(She is letting her daughter shine today.)
I can't even get groceries in peace.
Let's take a photo together.
1, 2, 3.
(Dam Bi takes a selfie with her mom's friend.)
(She signs an autograph and takes a selfie.)
My goodness.
Dam Bi is a star.
(Her mom is proud of her.)
(Your mom seemed to be very excited.)
She always claims...
to hide the fact that her daughter is Son Dam Bi.
But when I go outside with her,
she becomes a mom who wants to brag about her daughter.
It's cute.
I find that side of her cute.
(They return home after a fun time.)
All right.
Bbang Ggu came out.
- Bbang Ggu. - Bbang Ggu is so cute.
How cute! Did you play well by yourself?
Close the door.
Stay still.
That dog is cute.
Bbang Ggu. Let's wash our hands.
(They wash their hands first.)
(What kind of kimchi will you make today?)
I chose my two favorite types of kimchi.
Cucumber kimchi and young radish kimchi.
It's very tasty to eat ramyeon...
with cucumber kimchi or young radish kimchi.
Let me tie up my hair.
(She tidies herself up before making kimchi.)
(Today, I am the queen of kimchi.)
(She pulls her hair into a ponytail.)
(They put on gloves.)
(Determined)
(She puts on a mask.)
- Why is it... - You put it on wrong.
This is the opening for the mouth.
No, no. You put it on wrong.
(There is no opening for the mouth.)
Put it on your chin.
- Like this? - Yes, put it on your chin.
- That's how you wear it. - Like this?
Is she looking for a mirror?
Now, let's...
- What is this? - Young radish.
It will take forever to clean them.
Cut off the end.
And cut it in half.
Cut it in half and put it in there.
- Like this? - Yes. Cut it in half.
All right.
(Fast)
(Dam Bi's mom is experienced.)
Her mother has fast hands.
My goodness.
(Compared to her)
(Slow)
I stopped talking.
You work fast.
- She is 10 times faster. - Just cut what I give you.
Cut it in half.
(When her mom cuts off the root, Dam Bi cuts it in half.)
- I am good, right? - Yes.
I didn't even do much.
It's our first time to make kimchi together.
- Right? - Yes.
You need to learn so that you will be able...
to make kimchi when you get married.
- She is talking about marriage. - I knew she would do that.
- You keep talking about marriage! - It's nice that you are learning.
You should carefully watch...
how I make kimchi.
- Okay? - Okay.
A housewife should be able to make kimchi.
Store-bought kimchi isn't good enough.
Over the past 40 years,
I have made kimchi every year.
It's not like I knew how to do it from the start.
(Fast-forwarding)
She continued to talk throughout the process.
(She continues to pour out her love.)
I used to pay attention back in the days.
Now, I space out.
You are sick and tired of it.
- I keep having other thoughts. - You seem to have given up.
I space out.
It's as if her words are getting bleeped out.
Seriously.
How will you live?
If you continue to be that way...
(It's like the nagging ASMR.)
Cucumbers...
(She nags in all sorts of ways.)
My goodness.
When you get married...
(The topic of marriage makes her scream.)
(The onlookers are having fun.)
(She can't help but talk about it even if Dam Bi hates it.)
(Please stop.)
Look at the dog.
What is Bbang Ggu doing up there?
The dog barks every time the topic of marriage comes up.
As for the cucumbers...
- Hold on. - The cucumbers are hard to prepare.
- That's right. It's pretty hard. - Do this.
I knew it would be hard.
And cut again. Quarter it.
- Like this. - I will try it.
- Okay. - I cut it into three pieces first.
Yes. One. Again.
(She cuts the cucumber into 3 pieces first.)
Then cut each piece into half.
(You can do it, right?)
Quarter it.
(Shaking)
What is she doing?
The broader side should be down.
Why is this happening?
(She can only laugh.)
I can't believe you.
- Look at Dam Bi's mom. - She is happy to work with Dam Bi.
- She is used to doing it alone. - She has always done it alone.
- That's right. - No one has helped her before.
That weighed on my mind.
You should do it with her every time now.
Sure. Sure.
(She rinses the sliced cucumbers.)
They need to be salted.
(Sprinkle coarse salt over them.)
Young radish.
There is a lot.
- There are so many greens. - What?
Lotus root. Here is a lotus root.
I don't eat lotus root.
- Lotus root? - Other people might eat it.
No one ate it that day.
Still... Then let's add a small amount.
- There it is. - What is this?
- I remember that. - Is this meat?
If you eat lotus root,
- your health will improve. - I heard that it's healthy.
Says who?
The cooks said so on TV.
Which show do you watch?
- I watch "Altoran". - What?
- "Altoran". - "Altoran" is a fun show.
Apparently, my mom watches it very often.
"Altoran" is very popular.
There is no end to the young radishes.
There is a lot.
When you are done,
wash these ingredients.
I admire people who make kimchi.
Wash this too.
Now...
I will salt it.
Sprinkle some coarse salt.
(Even the dog looks tired.)
- Bbang Ggu is tired. - Bbang Ggu is exhausted.
All right.
(She makes the seasoning for kimchi.)
The ingredients tell me it will be delicious.
I know.
Cut it in half.
(That's how you prepare scallions.)
Like this.
Cut it in half.
(Okay.)
(Exclaiming)
- She is cutting it. - What are you doing?
- What? - If you move the knife down,
- you will cut your hand! - Seriously.
- That was so dangerous. - Seriously.
Unbelievable.
Had her mom seen it, she would have slapped her back.
I didn't know it was so dangerous to make kimchi.
Let's work on this next.
Dam Bi, take a look at these.
- You add fruit too? - Yes.
- Pears, apples, and orange. - I see.
She adds oranges?
She adds them instead of sugar.
- She doesn't add sugar? - No, she doesn't.
You are blending again.
Hurry up.
(Dam Bi's frustrated at the speed.)
(Her mother surely outdoes Dam Bi with making kimchi.)
You don't find it hot?
If it's too hot,
you can bite a piece of scallion.
- I didn't know that. - My mom does that too.
- Why? - It makes it less hot.
- How does that work? - It surely got less hot with that.
How do moms know this kind of stuff?
- I was so amazed. - They are geniuses.
- It's the wisdom of life. - They know everything.
(Useful wisdom of life)
(The seasoning for the cucumber kimchi is done.)
(She adds the salted cucumbers and lotus roots.)
Oh, this is how she does it.
That's quite unique.
Add some more chili powder.
That's how she makes it.
It can't be too red. Let's see.
This chili powder...
Did you add water parsley?
- That's amazing. - It must be aromatic.
(Excited)
Try it.
Water parsley is in season now.
- That's right. - Right.
Why is it salty?
What? It's salty?
- Salty? - Goodness.
- That can't happen. - But they didn't add salt.
Is it because of the salted seafood?
(They have to work on the saltiness of the kimchi.)
Let's add more plum juice.
It's a bit salty.
(She adds more plum juice.)
Why doesn't it taste savory?
I feel like I have to add something more.
- She must have been so busy. - Should I add more garlic?
She was very busy.
- I realized that too. - You keep adding stuff.
No.
It feels like it's missing something.
It doesn't taste perfect.
(She has to work on the saltiness now.)
(Tense)
It doesn't taste good.
But it looks delicious to me.
It was okay to me.
Hold on. Should we add more fruit?
No, I'm serious.
It's too salty.
I thought you were good at cooking.
I told everyone...
- what a good cook you are. - But it doesn't taste good today.
- Let me flavor them this way. - Isn't it bad to add more stuff?
No. I just need to add more fruit.
- She kept adding stuff. - It doesn't taste right.
We still have another one.
Which one?
We still have this.
- Yes, you have young radish. - Although this doesn't taste good.
- It looks delicious on the outside. - Mom.
- Yes. - Let's have a cup of coffee.
Mothers like to have instant coffee when they are tired.
- They run low on sugar. - I totally related to her.
- I mean it. - You related to it.
Mom, take a seat.
Goodness, it's quite hectic today.
It has been a while since I made kimchi with my daughter.
You know how to make it now, right?
Know what?
You chop the vegetables. Then you salt them.
You chop and salt them.
- Then we leave them for a while. - That's all, actually.
- You chop and salt them. - It's a simple version.
- She says it's simple. Goodness. - Young radish kimchi is easy.
It's very simple for my mom.
You can't be on the show...
- if you aren't single anymore. - Here we go again.
- You have to live alone for that. - I know.
My goodness.
You don't have to be on the show.
- Please get married. - Goodness.
(Please stop.)
(Astonished)
(Shocked)
She's adamant.
We still need Ms. Handful.
- She's adamant. - Goodness.
- Let's continue. - Young radish kimchi.
You're adding that?
You have to season it well.
Don't leave out the ingredients.
- What? - Don't leave out the ingredients.
All right. Here.
(Please make it good.)
(Pouring)
(In hopes of making a successful batch of young radish kimchi)
(Dam Bi's mother measures them with just her eyes and hands.)
Plum juice.
Mothers are seriously...
- the best cooks. - Don't mix them too hard.
- They can season without measuring. - I know.
(Handful)
(She adds young radish and cabbage.)
(All they have to do now is to mix them well.)
- Goodness. - This looks delicious.
(Please be delicious.)
(Dear young radish kimchi)
(It's time to taste.)
Taste it.
(She tastes it again.)
Again.
Is it good this time?
- How is it? - It must be delicious.
It's a bit bland.
(Unbelievable)
- She wants to make it perfect. - It's good.
It was actually delicious.
- She chopped scallions again. - Goodness.
She didn't think it was perfect.
Goodness, this is absurd.
- It must have been hectic. - Right.
Am I making kimchi or what?
I've always made it myself.
I make kimchi by myself every year.
- But it's not new. - She has her own routine.
- That's right. - But it's been broken...
- because of you. - It's not going as planned.
Here.
- She's making a new one? - No. It was actually tasty.
Goodness, it looks delicious.
(She is finishing it by adding sesame seeds on top.)
(It's the last tasting time.)
It's perfectly seasoned, right?
- What a relief. - It has to be seasoned well.
- It's delicious. - I wonder what it tastes like.
It's very crunchy and sweet.
You're done with the second one.
(It's time to put it in the container.)
You can enjoy these two for a while.
Of course.
(They finished making kimchi after twists and turns.)
- Did you put them all in? - Yes.
(One and only kimchi made by my mother)
(Making kimchi with her mother is a success.)
Give some to Ryeo Won.
Are you going to make mugwort rice cakes now?
Yes.
Mugwort rice cake?
Did you buy the mugworts?
She picked them herself.
Goodness, really?
That's a lot of effort.
It smells good.
Hyo Jin loves it so much.
She likes my mom's mugwort rice cakes.
(They talked about her mugwort rice cake the other day.)
(I want your Jeju Island mugwort rice cake.)
(She's the mugwort rice cake fan number 2.)
(Her mugwort rice cake is unforgettable.)
(You guys are making me laugh.)
- That's a lot of effort. - I know.
She can only do that because she is feeding her family.
I know.
It must be delicious.
This is...
- It's a lot of work to make that. - How they make it at stores.
- It looks delicious already. - Did I add too much mugwort?
But it's always nice to have a lot of mugwort.
Since they're mugwort rice cakes.
She should add a lot of it. She picked a lot of it.
She picked a lot of mugwort.
It's nice to see you cooking with your mother.
- I can't believe you're making it. - It was my first time.
- Goodness. - Your mother is very happy.
Now you know...
how hard it is to make mugwort rice cake.
- I know. - No pain, no gain.
Make holes here.
With your fingers.
- Goodness. - Make holes.
What is it?
That's how my mother makes the rice cake.
- I see. - To cook it faster?
- That must be it. - How interesting.
(It is a lot of work to make homemade rice cakes.)
Mugwort rice cakes are hard to make.
It's all hard.
Goodness, she went through so much to make it at home.
I asked her to make it for me.
But I didn't know it took so much effort to make it at home.
I couldn't even imagine that she had to do everything...
at home from picking mugworts to making the rice cake.
- You made rice cakes too. - It's a party.
I know.
My body aches.
My goodness.
- I'm exhausted. - What?
Mom, I'm tired.
This isn't even a lot of work.
How would you survive?
Gosh, I can't believe I'm yawning. It means I'm very tired.
People in the past worked much harder than this.
(People in the past worked much harder than this.)
Goodness, stop talking about people in the past.
"I used to work a lot harder."
- Yes. - "That's how we lived."
Mom, times have changed.
My foot.
(Giggling)
- My foot. - My foot.
My foot.
Let me check. It's cooked.
Let's see.
- Goodness. - It's all cooked well.
- It was delicious. - It tastes celestial...
when you have it as soon as it's done.
- I'll put on the bean powder. - You have to eat it right away.
It must have been delicious.
I just want to get the big piece and eat it.
Try it.
Take half.
(Her mother takes a bite.)
It's a bit bland.
It's bland.
Is it okay?
Isn't it bland?
This is bland. The kimchi is salty.
How come nothing gets seasoned right?
She made 3 to 4 things, but she doesn't like any of it.
I thought it was delicious.
It smelled of mugwort.
- That's so much work. - Goodness.
She made so many pans of the mugwort rice cake.
We made so many rice cakes.
(3 plates of mugwort rice cake)
My back aches so much.
(The result of hard work since early in the morning)
It must be delicious.
I want that more than the pork.
Gosh, we are done.
Thank you for this.
I'm so grateful for this.
You must be exhausted from making kimchi and rice cake.
No. I learned how hard you had to work for this.
I'll finish all the kimchi now.
- I thought I should finish it all. - Let me try the cucumber.
It must have been new.
She made it by herself.
You should leave it outside the fridge tonight.
Then put it in the fridge tomorrow morning.
It's delicious, try it.
It must be delicious.
- It's good, isn't it? - It's still salty.
- It's not salty. - It's not?
No.
(It's time to try the suyuk now.)
I can't stand this.
(Happiness after hard labor)
It's your first time making kimchi. It's tough, isn't it?
Goodness, everything is tough in the beginning.
- It's tasty. - But you did a good job today.
She is going to talk about marriage again.
You should learn all of this.
Then you can make them again when you get married.
- Goodness. - That was unexpected.
Please.
(Dam Bi's mother talks about it again.)
My only wish is that you will get married.
(Let's laugh it off.)
Please wait a second.
- Where is she going? - Where are you going?
I had something to give her for Parents' Day.
- It's a surprise. - Goodness.
- It's Parents' Day. - Of course.
She must have been really happy if you have brought your boyfriend.
"Mom, this your son-in-law."
Yes, she would love that.
Your mother would have been so happy if you did that.
- "Your son-in-law is here." - I like that idea.
Goodness.
(Ta-da)
What is that?
(Dam Bi brings a bag instead of a son-in-law.)
- Mom. - Yes.
This is for you.
I arranged the carnations for her.
This is my surprise for you.
- Thank you. - Here you go.
- My goodness. - It's all carnations.
- You are right. - Aren't they pretty?
- Mom, these are... - You made it.
Matching necklaces for you and me.
- Where? - Here.
(Matching necklaces for Dam Bi and her mother)
- Right. - It's a diamond.
I should get matching jewelry for my mother and me.
Goodness, diamonds?
- Of course. - Eternally shining and beautiful...
- diamonds. - Diamonds.
Let me put it on for you.
Let me.
My goodness.
It's done.
- Gosh, it looks pretty. - It looks good on her.
- Does it look good on me? - Yes.
Mom, take a look.
Where is the mirror? Let me see.
- Mom, this is your place. - I know. Where is the mirror?
- Mom, do you like it? - Gosh, it's so pretty.
It's like it's barely-there. But it's so pretty.
- So she likes it. - What does that mean?
- Dam Bi. - I think...
- She likes it. - Mothers prefer...
to have big gems on them.
(Mothers like big jewelry.)
Big and obvious ones.
- Like Iron Man. - Right.
- A huge piece. - It should be big.
(Hanging jewelry)
It's very pretty.
It looks good on her.
It is very pretty.
It's really pretty.
- You look great. - Thank you.
- Good job, Dam Bi. - Thank you.
I don't want these to wither soon.
I should water them very often.
- They're very pretty, right? - Let me put them here.
You should eat.
- I hope you like them. - Thank you.
I've never gotten you carnations.
All I did was give you money.
But old people like money.
She is honest.
(Money over flowers)
I mean...
- Should I have given you money? - No.
I like it.
I wanted to give you money.
- But I changed it to flowers. - Good.
Thank you, Dam Bi.
- Do you like them? - Yes.
Gosh, I'm tearing up.
What's wrong now?
You are making me cry.
- I'm very happy. - She's touched.
You are making me cry.
Please stay healthy.
Try to keep your good image.
(Dam Bi tries to calm down.)
I can't ask for more.
(Dam Bi feels sad for her mom.)
Goodness, she was so happy to receive the flowers.
I realized that I wasn't good enough for her as a daughter.
I thought I should be nice to my mother.
I had mixed feelings then.
Her father is gone. I'm the only one here.
I cried because I thought...
I was the only one who was enjoying the happy moment.
It made me tear up a little.
I can't ask for more.
I wish Dad was here.
- It has been 7 years already. - 7 years?
He passed away seven years ago.
It's all in the past now.
You should get a good husband.
- Goodness. - Gosh.
- It's not sad anymore. - I know.
(That's my only wish.)
- I just need to get married, right? - Yes.
That's because you don't have any siblings.
I wouldn't be worried if I was younger.
But your dad passed away.
I'm all alone.
- But you have someone. - What?
- You have your special friend. - Right.
My mother has a boyfriend.
- It's nice. - Yes.
My friends respect you.
You have a boyfriend.
He is younger than you.
- Really? - They all think you are great.
- She's good. - Am I good?
Of course.
(Chic)
I'm always aloof.
(I'm always aloof.)
- I mean it. - She is so charming.
I'm always like that.
Isn't he eight years younger?
- 6 years younger. - 6 years.
- She is one cool lady. - Also...
There are some people...
who wouldn't tell their daughters about their boyfriends.
But I'm okay with that.
I would hate it more if you were lonely.
You try to understand me.
You are a woman before you are a mom.
That's right.
Honestly, I was so happy.
He can be her friend.
He's someone she can talk to.
He's also someone who can appease her loneliness.
I was very happy as her child.
She had to go through so much...
when my father was sick.
It always made me feel bad about my mother.
I want her to forget about those days.
I've always hoped that she could carry on with her life.
So I'm very cool with her boyfriend.
You are very cool with it.
Mom, I'm a cool girl.
- Mom. - Goodness.
Thank you for taking it that way.
- Please keep your relationship. - All right.
- Don't break up. - Okay.
I'd be heartbroken if you break up with him.
I hope my mom meets someone too.
There are times when I'm not happy.
- You are not happy with him? - Sometimes.
She shares what happened with her boyfriend to her daughter.
I tell him to leave then.
(You can leave.)
- "You can leave." - "You can leave."
- That's the way it is. - She is so cool.
I know. "You can leave."
"You can leave."
I can tell him to leave whenever I'm not happy.
I'm rather cool.
- Cool ladies. - Cool mother and cool daughter.
You are better than me with relationships.
You are right.
Give me some tips on dating.
What can I do to attract men?
I'm telling you now.
A boy can be really nice...
to win your heart at first.
But that's not important.
When you get close to a guy,
try to have drinks with him.
- That's right. - You have to drink with him.
- That's a very important tip. - He will show his true side.
You want me to drink with a guy.
You will pick up on his habits.
There are some people who are very selfish.
There are self-centered people. Don't date them.
Meet someone who is considerate of others.
That's really hard.
- That's the toughest thing. - It sounds easy like that.
Don't let the guy pay...
every meal you have with him.
You can get him something small and nice.
You can get him something in return.
Girls shouldn't let the guys pay for everything these days.
- That's not right. - She is right.
Of course, Mom.
Open your wallet and close your mouth.
The less you talk, the better it is.
I used to talk a lot when I was young.
I did a lot of talking too.
But that's when I was young.
- She must have been popular. - But I don't talk a lot these days.
So what made your boyfriend fall in love with you?
What does he like about you?
He said that whatever I do...
is very feminine.
He says I'm very feminine.
I'm serious.
I should be feminine.
That can be interpreted in many ways.
Let's say we have a meal.
- There is this delicious thing. - You put it on his spoon?
No, I tell him to have it.
I tell him that it's delicious.
He then tries it too.
Is that the adult world?
- How sweet. - I don't try that hard.
I was very happy to spend time with my mom today.
I realized that these small things...
can make my mother very happy.
I was so happy to see how happy my mom was.
I thought I should make her happy more often.
I had a very happy day.
She got me a necklace.
She got me those beautiful carnations too.
It's priceless.
I wish every day was like today.
- She must have been so happy. - Mom, please stay healthy.
Let's live cool lives.
Part two of our lives.
- Let's do that. - I'm turning 40 soon.
I'll be a cool 40-year-old.
Before you turn 40...
(Shocked)
She is very persistent on this.
Before you turn 40,
please date someone.
- You did a great job today. - Yes, Mom.
I hope you enjoy these gifts. Don't let the flowers go dry.
Let's wrap things up.
I have plans later tonight.
I should say this.
"Why does it feel so itchy right here?"
Then, people will go, "What is that thing that's shining?"
