HAN JEONG-HUI
What?
Eun-sung.
It's Eun-sung.
Eun-sung was here.
Eun-sung!
What is taking her so long?
Eun-sung.
Eun-sung!
What's wrong with that old man?
Eun-sung!
Your...
favorite flower.
The only drink
you drank, Champagne.
Jeong-hui,
it was Eun-sung, right?
Thank you.
I missed her today.
But thanks to you,
I get to meet Eun-sung now.
What are we going to eat?
You said you were hungry.
Seafood soup.
SOMEORI GUKBAP
Then I'll have someori gukbap.
What?
We should eat separately.
Don't make me look petty.
You eat lunch outside to avoid me.
You said you don't want to eat at home because I am there.
That dish is too big for one person.
-Aren't you going to eat? -I'm eating.
It's boiling.
Are you asking me to serve you?
No, I'm telling you to eat.
I'm allergic to clams.
-Then why did you choose this place? -I didn't want to waste money.
What?
It's a waste of money if you have seafood soup for 25,000 won by yourself.
Then you should have just told me you can't eat clams.
You are doing this on purpose.
You said you didn't want someori gukbap.
You keep making me look so petty.
Like with the bag before, if you had told me your story in detail,
I wouldn't accuse you of being a thief.
Who would want to tell their story to you?
What?
You suffocated me with your accusations as soon as you saw me at that nightclub.
You didn't give me a chance to talk. You didn't even think to listen.
Then why didn't you tell me at home--
You accused me of being a thief at your house too!
I was there for your grandma, but you still wanted to call the police.
Why didn't I tell you before? Are you serious?
You should know yourself.
You never listen to what anyone else says!
Forget it, just eat your meal.
You have a bad temper. Are you really going to starve?
You got your spit all over my food!
Come out when you're done.
That's all your spit!
Why are you alone?
Hwan, you are here.
Give it to her when she comes in.
Here's the money left.
I didn't ditch her.
I guess he did go with her.
What an arrogant egocentric punk.
He should learn to become softer to live a decent life.
-I'm home. -You're home.
-Did you have a nice time? -Yes.
-It was an easy trip, thanks to you. -Good.
But your leg looks worse.
-Seong-cheol, take care of her leg. -I'll take care of it, go to her room.
I'm okay.
Just follow me.
-Grandma... -Careful.
I can do it...
He knows what he's doing.
She doesn't need acupuncture.
Reduce the swelling today
and do some more heat therapy tomorrow. It'll be fine.
How can a cook be so good at everything?
I don't know anything, but cooking.
You are good at gardening and heat therapy.
And you are good at finding people.
By the way, why are you still using honorifics to me?
-He's not comfortable with you. -With me?
-Why is he not comfortable with me? -Because you're not comfortable in here.
That's why he's not comfortable with you either.
Why didn't you tell me it was your mom's memorial day?
Then I could have prepared it for you so you can do it at home.
Don't go to work tomorrow and take a rest.
It's fine.
There's so much I can do without moving around.
There's nothing you can do without moving around.
Cleaning dishes, standing behind the counter,
and training your grandson.
I heard you were Eun-sung's driver today.
I heard she went to her mom's grave. Were you there too?
Yes.
So it was true that she didn't have parents.
Her father did pass away recently. Her story is complicated.
But she's not a crook.
Are you taking her side now?
I'm not taking her side! I'm just telling the truth.
Did you talk about that in the car?
Do you think your brother would talk to Eun-sung?
It was probably her who kept yapping away.
-No, it's not like that. -Then how do you know her story?
It's not like you can read people's minds.
I didn't say I know the whole story.
Her parents died, and she didn't try to steal my bag.
That's all I know, okay?
Why are you so upset?
I'm tired. Go away.
Geez.
Dad.
I went to see Mom today.
I couldn't do the memorial at home, so I just went to her grave.
Dad, did you come to see me with mom?
LOG IN
INBOX
Why haven't I got any e-mail from her?
YIBEO CAFE, BROADBAND, SEO HONG-GUN
Check your e-mail once every week.
If there's nothing, it means she hasn't called me.
Did Eun-sung just come today?
Maybe she went to her mother's grave
before she even contacted her stepmother.
This is the second best-selling branch. You don't have to worry about managing.
I'm not worried much since there are staff
who have worked here a long time.
You wouldn't have this job if the former manager was healthy.
It's weird to thank the patient.
But I got this job thanks to him, so I feel like I should say it.
Thank you.
-Who are you? -I'm a real estate agent.
We just had a look around.
What do you mean?
Seung-mi.
What is he talking about? He said this house is on the market.
He's right. I put this house on the market.
What does that mean? Why would you do that?
Well, it's under my name.
I'm selling my house. What's wrong with that?
Take a seat here.
What's wrong with you?
Don't just act like a three-year-old kid. What is going on?
I'll sell this house and give it back to Eun-sung.
What?
I'll give it back and apologize to her before it's too late.
Are you out of your mind?
Mom, I couldn't sleep at all after finding out Eun-u is missing.
If they had a place to stay, Eun-u wouldn't be missing.
-You had taken so much money-- -Did you forget already?
You lied to Eun-sung that we bought this house with your dad's inheritance.
-I know. -And?
Now you are going to tell her it was a lie and give it back to her?
What do you think she's going to say?
She'll forgive me. She has a big heart.
Or at least, she won't tell Ms. Jang about it.
What if she tells her?
What if she tells her that I hid money
and kicked them out without providing them with a place to stay?
What are you going to do then?
I'll still give it back.
What?
Mom, I want Hwan to know me as a good person.
I want to stay beside him as a good person.
That's the more reason not to tell her.
You don't know what Hwan means to me.
My dad is alive, but doesn't come to see me once.
When you were too busy working and there was no one to take care of me,
he has been there for me.
Yes, That's why you--
Regardless of what others think,
he's always been there with a warm heart to look after me.
I don't want to feel guilty and nervous about when she will tell him!
The instant you return this to her is when she'll tell them.
I'll beg her for forgiveness.
Ever since she moved into his house, I feel like I'll go insane from anxiety!
That's enough.
I have other things to deal with. Don't put more pressure on me.
She'll contact me tomorrow morning.
Eun-sung.
Baek Seong-hui!
But Grandma promised me that she would find Eun-u for sure.
So I'm going to trust her.
I'll sell this house and give it back to Eun-sung.
There's no Ko Eun-u or any musical savant.
Good morning, ma'am.
Have you ever seen anyone with such a sense of responsibility?
She's working so hard that she might get sick.
You're riding the bike with that leg?
Good lord.
Are you brave or stupid?
What are you doing here?
Why else? I figured you would do something like this.
Like delivery?
"Like delivery"?
What if your ankle gets worse on that bike?
I think it would be better than walking.
-Give me that. -Sorry?
Are you going to do that instead of me?
-You don't even know the address. -You can tell me.
-Later. -What?
Be careful.
Jun-se!
-You're pretty good. -I am, right?
-That house. -That house?
-Two 200ml cartons of milk. -Two 200ml cartons of milk.
-Stop! -Stop.
Two.
Good job.
-I did good, right? -Yes, you did.
Thank you.
HEO GAP-DEOK, YIBEO
This can't be happening.
There's no way she wouldn't contact her stepmom after returning.
What if she just leaves again?
BAEKMA APT 503-702
Yes, Baekma Apartment.
Was it unit 502 or 503?
The apartment number was 700-something.

Jeong, have some breakfast.
I told you I don't want to.
I'm going to sleep all day.
Good for you.
You have your day off on Sunday.
Who's that?
-It's Jun-se. -What?
Jun-se!
Really?
So you want to work at Jun-se's restaurant?
He said he needs more serving staff and asked me to come work for him.
I guess your mom and Mr. Park told Jun-se to do it.
That's not true.
You told me I can work anywhere as long as I make money myself.
I didn't say you can owe my acquaintance.
He's your acquaintance, but it doesn't mean he's all yours.
I've known Jun-se for so long.
I first met him when I was five at Dad's funeral.
Do you remember when you were five?
Grandma.
He put me on his back.
And he comforted me when I cried.
Hwan was shocked and just standing in the corner.
I know you like Jun-se.
Who wouldn't like him?
Yes. It's a nice chance to be closer to Jun-se too.
Whatever. I'm going to work there anyway.
You don't even give us the money.
Don't cause any trouble at his restaurant.
Try not to lose Jun-se's favor.
Mother, do you approve of it?
Birds of a feather flock together.
That's good for both of you.
Jun-se is a full package.
You have to be like him if you want to be with him.
Don't worry, Grandma.
Jun-se really likes me.
Welcome.
You're new. Who are you?
Are you new?
What's your family doing?
What?
Who are you to speak down to me like this?
-You! -What!
Jeong.
Jun-se! What is this girl?
You should call me boss.
I told you about her, Hye-ri.
She's Sunwoo Jeong. She's the daytime part-timer.
This is my new staff, Lee Hye-ri. Say hi to each other.
I'm Lee Hye-ri.
I'm Sunwoo Jeong.
You are the same age so you can be friends.
Back to work, Hye-ri. And follow me, Jeong.
You are currently working from ten o'clock to four o'clock, right?
Same here. You get one day off a week, and you will be paid 5,000 won per hour.
What? I made 6,000 won at grandma's store.
Your grandmother is a generous person.
That's why everyone worked harder.
But this restaurant is not as big as hers. I can't give you that much.
An hourly rate of 5,000 won means...
it's less than 900,000 won a month.
You can go back to your grandmother's if you want.
I would rather die.
Welcome!
Welcome.
Come this way.
It's taking him forever.
He's not even doing it right.
What if he really becomes a nice person?
That's why he is here. What are you talking about?
I think we are being too harsh on him.
What if he becomes the boss and fires all of us?
No. I still have ages to go until my kids graduate college.
That's what I'm talking about.
What?
Two seolleongtang, please.
Two seolleongtang.
Two seolleongtang will be served right away.
You already said that.
You should try it too, Mr. Sunwoo.
Excuse me, I'm training new staff here.
Training? Okay then, go ahead.
Seolleongtang will be served right away.
Thank you for your understanding.
You, come here.
Come on.
Why are you following me around?
I'm not following you because I want to.
I was told off by the manager because of you.
If you don't do things right, I'll get in trouble.
That affects my performance which delays my promotion, and I won't get a raise!
So you decided to become my stalker?
I told the manager we'll work as a team until you do your job properly.
What?
Give me 5,000 won.
You want 5,000 won?
You owe me 770,000 won.
I'm going to collect 5,000 won every day.
I told you I will give it to you when I get my paycheck.
You only get 800,000 won this month since you've had 300,000 won in advance.
When are you going to pay me back? Are you going to borrow from me again?
Don't be petty.
Not paying back what's owed is being petty.
-I didn't say I wouldn't pay you back. -Then give me 5,000 won.
-What are you doing? -I'm recording.
Hard-ass.
We're having lunch now.
Have some lunch.
Are you trying to scam me?
Who made me pay for the booze when I went there to find the bag?
I was drunk back then.
The chief cooked samgyetang for each one of us.
It will be a waste if you don't eat yours.
Give me back my lunch money.
Pay me back the remaining 765,000 won.
Are you telling me to skip lunch?
Why do you skip lunch? You can eat here with us.
Have you ever seen me eating here?
Are you avoiding me or the staff?
They know you don't eat lunch here,
but they always prepare yours too, just in case you eat.
I'll go eat somewhere else.
I can't make them feel ignored by you because of me.
I'll go eat alone in the kitchen.
It's just a chicken. What's so hard to eat it?
Just come with us, I make really good samgyetang.
I don't like samgyetang.
-It's so good. -Right?
Is Baek Seong-hui here?
I told you she's not here!
Excuse me.
-Is Baek-- -Hey, mister.
What are you doing here? Get out of here.
-No, I was just-- -Get out of here.
You can't just barge in here.
The one you're looking for is not here. Just go.
-Go! -Hey, mister.
This Sunday is my opening ceremony. Bring Hwan.
Ta-da!
Your clothes are covered with dust.
Isn't this pretty?
Really?
Congratulations, Hye-ri!
Where do you work at?
I will see you at Namu at seven o'clock. I'll buy you dinner.
Okay, see you tomorrow.
-What's up? -Grandma.
You could've just called me to come down.
It's been a while since I came up here.
You resemble your father a lot.
Do I resemble my dad?
Then I must be so pretty.
What?
My dad was so handsome that everyone told him to be an actor.
He even got cast on the street.
I'm sorry to say that, but you are a little less than your dad.
Grandma!
Let's have dinner with me tomorrow.
-Tomorrow? -Why? Do you have other plans?
Yes.
My friend just called me and said she got a job and wanted to celebrate.
-I'll change it to another day. -No, no.
We can have dinner some other day.
It seems that you haven't met your friend for a long time.
Tomorrow is my mom's opening ceremony. You are coming, right?
I don't have money.
You want to get an advance?
I can't go to the opening ceremony with empty hands.
How much?
I'll pay you in advance if you need it for the opening ceremony.
You have to take care of other people's events.
How much?
As much as you want.
You can take a small garland. Here.
-I'll deduct it on your salary. -That's what I told you.
Mother, I need it too.
I have to go to the opening ceremony too, but I don't have money.
-Seong-cheol. -Yes, ma'am.
Send a garland there under the name of our company.
And send another good and nice one under her name.
At Pearl Hotel, two o'clock.
Don't be late because of work.
Yes, ma'am. I'm going off now.
He said he doesn't want to get married. Now he's waiting from the morning?
Don't you think he has his own business?
He usually doesn't go out that much.
By the way, mother.
Who's going to cook for us when Mr. Pyo gets married?
He knows everything about the household.
JINSUNG FOOD COMPANY, PARK TAE-SU
-Congratulations. -Congratulations.
DOO DO BED OPENING CEREMONY
Why aren't there many guests?
Didn't you invite your friends or your husband's friends?
I didn't want to bother people just for this.
I was actually thinking of not inviting you either.
But you helped me a lot with Mr. Park. So I only invited you.
You're very discreet in manners.
She's been like this since high school.
She didn't have many friends except for me,
and she didn't hang out much with girls.
After she got married, she only lived as a housewife
and lost contact with everyone.
I was busy enough just being a housewife.
You know I'm not sociable enough.
Look how humble she is.
Here's your seolleongtang.
Eun-sung.
Ms. Jang will be here in ten minutes. So get ready to finish work.
Ms. Jang?
Ms. Jang!
You are off work now. Don't call me like that. Get on.
-What? -Get in the car.
You won't be late for your appointment.
You are so tough like a guy.
Get on.
-Seat belt on. -Okay.
-You must be so tired. -Not at all.
Let's go.
Hwan!
Are you mad that I'm late?
I'm sorry, I couldn't get a taxi.
If you were going to take a taxi, we could have just met there.
No, I took a taxi so you won't wait for me for too long.
It'll be the first time we take the bus together.
Our first time?
You only took the taxi in high school.
Yes, but I have to take a bus now.
I was looking forward to this.
Let's take a taxi. We can buy a cheaper garland.
What?
Look at this design.
Everyone knows that Korean red clay is amazing.
Excuse me, could you take it from here?
-Hwan! -How are you?
It's been a long time! Let's shake hands.
I missed you since you went right back last winter,
so we haven't met since last summer, right?
Yes, this is for you.
You didn't have to bring this. Just showing up is good enough.
I came here with Seung-mi.
Of course you lovebirds are always together.
Come, this way.
You must be having a hard time.
I'm dying.
You know, you are incredible.
You put up with all these things. You are so determined.
Just hang in there for three months.
Your grandmother will forgive you for sure.
SEOUL REAL ESTATE
-Hwan, let me take this call. -Okay.
Really? Do they want to buy the house?
I'm going to work tomorrow. So lunchtime would be fine.
Yes.
I don't like this.
Yes. Here, I'll buy this too.
Why don't you try on these clothes?
Why are you doing this to me?
You are going to a party. You need to get dressed up.
It's not that kind of party. We're just having dinner.
Then get dressed up and have dinner.
-Let me see this suit. -Okay.
This looks cool in summer. Let me see this one too.
Yes, ma'am.
You look so pretty.
Good.
This is the winner. You should wear that tonight.
But it's not my style.
If it looks good on you, it's your style.
If you're going to buy just one, you should get this.
I don't think I can wear this again.
-Let's do your hair too. -What?
Put some makeup on her.
-Thank you. -Have a nice day.
Grandma.
Why are you doing all this for me?
You bought me clothes too.
When?
That was a cheap one. I bought it from a street vendor.
What about the hospital bill?
Why don't you ask me to pay it back?
I didn't do it to get the money back.
You spent your money on me, but I didn't do anything for you.
You should have bought more than just 50,000 won shoes.
Okay, setting it aside,
why did you spend money on makeup and hair? It's only temporary.
Women release their stress by taking care of her looks.
Women should be getting attention and loved by someone...
And you have to make money.
Just because you have lost your brother, don't forget that you are a woman.
You can't take your youth back once it's gone.
Grandma.
You can go now. I have something to do here.
-What? -See you at home.
Grandma!
You're back again.
Yes, can I buy the three outfits my girl tried on earlier?
Yes, ma'am.
-Have a nice day. -Have a nice day.
Hyeong-jin, I'm going to your restaurant now.
-My restaurant? -Yes, Namu.
I think Eun-sung is still in touch with Jun-se.
She asked me to meet her there.
Why not?
You can go now.
I highly recommend this mushroom cream pasta.
How did you get a job here?
Eun-sung doesn't know you work here.
That's why she brought you here.
What?
You should never tell her I work here,
until I make myself appear to serve her.
Got it?
How is working with Jun-se?
He's a good guy, right?
What is going on here?
How much do you think he makes?
Jung In-yeong, don't count your chickens and wake up!
Jun-se is Eun-sung's man.
He is the owner of this restaurant, not a manager!
What?
Welcome!
-Lee Hye-ri! You... -You...
Ko Eun-sung?
It really is you.
What happened?
Don't look at me like that.
Who made you like this?
What happened to you by the way?
I was going to surprise you.
Ta-da! I work here now.
Really? How? What happened to her?
We needed new staff, so I recruited her.
I'm so happy for you!
Girl!
By the way, you look so pretty today.
Don't I look weird?
Ms. Jang made me like this.
No, you look amazing. I thought you were someone else.
That's not true, Hye-ri. She has always been pretty.
You were so surprised just now.
I was just so surprised because she's wearing something different.
-You're home, Mother. -Yes.
Did you go shopping?
Take this to Eun-sung's room.
-What? -It's better if you put them on hangers.
Did you buy her clothes?
-Is Seong-cheol home yet? -Mother...
I can't take this anymore.
Mother!
Where did Mom go? What is this?
This must be my clothes.
How can you be so nice to Eun-sung and so harsh to us?
You think three clothes are being nice? You've been buying so many clothes.
I'm your daughter-in-law, and Hwan and Jeong are your grandchildren.
I told you she's my family too.
-They say blood is thicker than water. -What are you trying to say?
How dare you nag me for buying some clothes for her!
I'm just so sad.
What is there to be sad about?
Hwan and Jeong are still young.
But do you know how old I am?
I'm walking on eggshells at the factory.
I've never done anything in my life.
I can't slice radish into pretty shapes.
And it's so hard to make kimchi that I want to die sometimes!
How long do I have to work at the factory?
I told you, you have to work to get money and make a living.
Then...
I would like to sell the Daegu land and start a business with that money.
You should!
It's your land. You decide what to do with it.
Are you sure?
Go ahead.
That means I don't have to provide food and shelter for you.
What?
Don't you agree?
You do whatever you want with your money. Why do I have to take care of you then?
You can move out.
Mother.
If factory work is too hard for you, you can do chores in the house.
Chores?
If you do chores instead of the housekeeper,
I'll give you her salary to you.
It's your choice. Factory or chores?
Chores.
Grandma!
Ta-da!
I didn't know you had such a great fashion sense.
I like it a lot.
Why did you buy it for me? Do you want me to go on a blind date?
Take it off right now.
Mom.
That's not yours. That's Eun-sung's.
What do you mean it's Eun-sung's?
She bought it for Eun-sung. Just take it off now.
Grandma!
You have lots of clothes in your closet that you haven't even worn once.
But you never bought me any of those.
You have a mother.
Like mother, like daughter.
You guys only know how to get jealous but don't know how to share.
Change your clothes now.
-I'm home. -Yes.
How was she?
Well, that's...
I think I have to learn how to cook starting tomorrow.
He must like her so much. He came home so late.
What do you mean?
Teach her how to do chores starting tomorrow.
She's going to do chores from now on.
She's going to do chores?
Starting tomorrow, Team One
will start in Gwangju and search South Jeolla Province.
Team Two will start in Daegu and search South Gyeongsang Province.
It's taking longer than I expected.
Are you sure you didn't miss him?
Only if he's in a private home. We've looked for every shelter.
Advertisement!
Why didn't I think of that?
Let's put out an ad in the newspaper.
We can't do that.
Why not?
We've thought about it, but Eun-u might get in danger.
You're right.
Some wicked people could take him hostage for the money.
Why are you in a hurry?
You should relax and...
-It's not like that. -Excuse me?
I really want to find him for Eun-sung.
She's so tender and soft-hearted. And she's lost her brother.
How broken must she be inside?
But she's doing so well.
And I heard she's trying hard to correct Hwan's behavior.
She's confronting Hwan, the most stubborn boy in the world.
How is it? It's small but cozy, right?
-You're taking over this bar? -Yes.
You said you're taking over your boss' bar. What's this?
But you said no. I found something I can afford.
You don't have money to take over this bar.
I only need 10 or 20 million won more.
Did you save that much money?
Of course. I've saved it for years.
When is the opening?
I'm doing the change-over right now.
We should come here from now on.
I will put your drinks on the tab for a month.
Come to visit me often.
You don't have to drive me home.
How can I not drive you home?
Especially today, he has to. Someone might take her.
How could you...
Let's go.
Sorry, In-yeong. I will go first.
Of course, you should go. We are going in the opposite direction.
Oh, yes. Go ahead. Bye now!
Have a safe trip home.
What are you doing?
What? Nothing.
You never know what's going to happen in life.
Thank you.
-Drive safe. -You go in first.
-You first. -You first.
-That's Park Jun-se. -Then I'll go in.
Is she Jeong?
Sunwoo Jeong.
You dressed up for Jun-se.
What is wrong with you?
What's with that outfit?
Jesus...
A short skirt doesn't make you a woman.
Jerk.
Did she always look like that?
I'm home late. It was my first day at work.
I had so many things to do.
This house is sold.
What?
I'm going to sign the contract at lunchtime tomorrow.
A contract?
Are you really out of your mind?
I have thought about it in Eun-sung's shoes.
She would get mad that you kicked her out when you had an apartment.
I could have ignored it forever.
If we return everything, she will forgive us.
You never know that.
She's not like you.
What?
She won't tell Ms. Jang if she knows we're regretting it.
She knows what will happen to me if she tells Ms. Jang.
She can't be that cruel. I can't even do that.
You are such an idiot! You stupid fool!
Do you know what's the most unbearable feeling for people?
It's a sense of betrayal.
I know she's a nice person. But this is too risky.
It's too late.
It's never too late, Mom.
Seung-mi.
You can't keep this secret forever.
She will figure out in a second if she finds the registration certificate.
Okay, then. Let's just move out.
We can just move to another place.
I'll get a loan from my work.
You can't sell it.
It's under your name, but it's not yours.
Did you ask for Father's permission when you took this house?
Why do I need his permission?
You were smarter than Eun-sung, but he sent her abroad, not you.
He broke his promise that he would treat you equally.
So I took some for my daughter. Why do I need his permission?
There is no point in stopping me.
-I've decided to do it anyway! -Fine!
You do whatever you want.
If you are going to tell her, I can't stop you.
But don't regret it.
Regret? I won't.
My life already got screwed because of the two husbands.
And now you're turning me into the worst human possible.
Eun-sung won't tell!
Think about it carefully and we'll talk again tomorrow morning.
Hello?
Eun-sung, it's me. I need to see you after work tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
What for?
I have...
something to tell you.
Something to tell me?
I'll wait for you at the park we met last time at six o'clock.
Okay, but what is this about?
I'll tell you in person.
REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE
No, she won't do that.
They say your child is your worst enemy.
Who is it?
Excuse me, is Baek Seong-hui here?
Who is it?
Seung-mi.
Mom!
