I think...this is 93 degrees.
Let's check.
92.5 degrees! Yes!
Gosh...
It's so hot in here.
- Can I get a cup of water? - Sure.
Don't make plans for tonight.
Why?
Can't I even see you after work without a good reason?
Let's go on a date.
Today?
I wanted to go home early and study.
You sound as though you're a good student.
I was going to study hard starting from today.
- Start tomorrow. - I don't think I can make it today.
My mom's mad because I've been coming home late.
I need to stitch doll eyes and peel chestnuts.
When are we going to have our date then?
Are you playing hard to get?
Want to go watch a movie?
Too many people in the theaters.
How about an amusement park?
Oh yeah, you don't like being around too many people.
How about a play?
Shopping?
Musical?
Then... we can talk at a park... or go for a drive?
Let's go to my place and watch a DVD.
Look how happy they are after all that commotion.
Angel! Sit down.
Want milk? Are you okay?
Excuse me!
- Excuse me! - Damn you!
Is it good?
Wait! You forgot to pay for that.
That'll be $5.
No, I don't want to date anyone besides Eun-Sae.
You hold her purse while she goes to the restroom and put nail polish on your toes.
What are you, a servant or her guinea pig? That's wrong!
Why? Sun-Ki puts nail polish on his hands!
That's because he wants to. You're being forced.
- Same thing! - Why, you...
What? Why are you so mean to me?
I think it's because you saw his butt a long time ago.
Oh, you mean that cute bunny girl winking from the 11 o'clock position?
- Flat chest! - Yes, I have a flat chest. So?
Tramp!
Get over here!
Break up with her sister and try the girl I know.
I don't want to!
- Just go on one date. - Why?
Don't ask questions, you gorilla!
But I only want Eun-Sae.
Get back to work!
Do you want me to break the ramen or not?
Just once.
- I only eat egg whites. - I only eat the yolk.
- Want laver? - No, just the pepper.
Okay!
Can't you do anything right?
Why are you cutting the green onions with scissors?
Since I did most of the cooking, you should do the dishes.
Not fair! We cooked together!
Paper, rock, and scissor, fair and square.
Then why don't we decide on a game of five-word sentences instead?
Whoever loses does the dishes, okay?
Okay!
You like me, don't you?
Yes, you bet I do.
Tell me, ever since when?
Ever since when we kissed.
Which kiss do you mean?
The one from the blind date.
But that was long ago!
The ramen's ready to eat.
You're so weird, do you know that?
You're so weird, do you know that. That's 9 words. You do the dishes!
Okay, okay.
But I get the lid!
Not fair!
- I don't want to eat now. - Then don't.
Yes!
You never give up, do you? Look at those eyes!
It's hot!
What do you mean, why do I like you?
Min-Yup said he wouldn't want me because I'm strong and unladylike.
There are plenty of pretty and thin girls out there.
You're dreamy, and you're from a good family.
But I'm not pretty. I'm a tomboy.
My family doesn't have much to show for either.
I didn't have much education.
I don't see why you can possibly like me.
You're right.
Oh well, but I still like you despite all that.
You're too honest.
What was that?
Food tastes better if you eat it right after you brush your teeth.
You're so weird.
You'll be in America in a month.
Do you want me to stay?
I know you'll go.
Want to go with me?
We can live in an apartment in Chelsea where there's a lot of trees.
You can read books in the sun at a nearby park after I leave for work.
We can have dinner together at East Village, where I work,
and go listen to music.
If we get hungry again, we can walk to Johnnie's for a slice of pizza.
Wait, you' ll have a whole pizza.
Just thinking about it makes my heart pound.
But you don't look like you do.
I can imagine it, but I can't go.
Why not?
I don't want to get married yet.
Why?
You want to go to America with me, right? Doesn't that mean we'll live together?
Just because we go together doesn't mean we'll live together.
We can live together without getting married.
What?
Well...
I guess we don't have to live together.
Are you going to force me to marry you if I sleep with you?
What? Did I say something wrong?
Lovers sleep together, right?
You're making me nervous.
I'm not making you hot.
It's the weather.
Besides, of course you have to marry me if you sleep with me.
Then does that mean we need to get engaged if I hold your hands?
You have a point there.
You didn't finish your ice cream! Eat it!
I'm glad you're a girl.
I'm done eating.
New York...
W-w-what?
Are you deaf or something?
Her boss wants her to go to New York with him.
He proposed to you, right?
When does he want to get married?
We're not getting married.
We'll go together, but we'll be neighbors.
Mom, my boss is a freelancer for the biggest toy company in New York.
You're not getting married?
What about us?
He's going to buy us a house at least, right?
Why would he do that for?
Don't think like that.
Hey, finish your food and get out.
I thought you're meeting up with your friend today.
How can I meet my friend at a time like this?
She's going to ditch us for New York!
You don't care what happens to us, do you?
All you care about is yourself!
What's the matter?
Are you jealous because my life is turning out nicely?
- Yes, I'm jealous! So? - Stop it!
Why do you always pick on me?
How are we going to live after she's gone?
We're struggling as it is. How are we going to make a living with the two of us?
Do you think I can pay for college by peeling chestnuts and stitching doll eyes?
Eat your food.
She's just upset that your boyfriend might take her sister away.
Who is it?
Long time no see.
Let's take Han-Gyul to his real mother's charnel house tomorrow.
We should let him meet his real father too.
I think that's the right thing to do.
I'll talk to your wife...
I already talked to her.
What did she say?
She agreed.
I wanted to keep her but decided to let you have her.
See how perfect she is!
Long straight hair!
Creamy skin!
The bewitching smile in her eyes!
Isn't she great?
But the best part is...
Here you go.
She's so considerate!
Isn't she great?
Ah...
Don't go overboard. It'll turn her off.
Don't get nervous.
Be confident!
You're very pretty.
Can I see you again?
Cool...
Gosh, why am I so good?
Maybe I was born to be a player.
- I'm busy. - Yeah right.
You're not busy.
I'm near my singing school.
- I'm hungry. Get your butt over here. - No.
No?
You've got some nerve!
My nerves are doing fine.
I have to go.
Eun-Sae
Are you coming back from school?
Where did you go?
I haven't seen you for days.
I was on a trip.
I wandered aimlessly with the wind and the clouds.
Good for you.
You can leave whenever you want.
Don't you enjoy the freedom of living by yourself?
Why do you want to marry my mom?
Uh, well...
I like your mom, and two's a company.
What happened to you?
A boy who likes me ignored my call, and my sister might get married.
Get married?
I heard that she's getting it on with her boss.
Is that true?
Wow, Eun-Chan found a really nice man.
What's so nice about him?
That he's rich?
My sister is not a gold digger!
Don't take it that way.
I never said he' a nice man because he's rich.
I just said he's nice.
Don't put words in my mouth.
Are you upset?
I wanted to buy her a car and a new coffee shop...
after I make a lot of money by singing.
She doesn't know anything. She's boy crazy now.
I'll be all alone if Mom gets married too.
Eun-Sae, I like your mom.
But I won't marry her if you don't want me to.
I'll wait until you're okay with it!
And you won't be all alone if your mom gets married.
You'll just have a bigger family.
You're kinda nice.
But I'm still mad.
Why aren't you home yet?
Why are you still here?
I'm on my way. Stop nagging.
What the...
Did you go somewhere?
I haven't seen you in awhile.
Yes...
What's wrong with him now?
Whatever, I can't afford to get worked up over a man.
Sheesh...
Hey Yup! Come over here.
I'm into trot nowadays.
Remember this song? ♬ Shanghai... ♬
What?
♬ Shanghai, Shanghai♬ Listen up! It's got soul!
What?
I envy you.
Look at our boss's shoulders.
They're broad, aren't they?
He's on the broader side.
Take a good look!
He's got long legs, and he looks good in any clothes.
He's so stylish.
He seems blunt, but he's so caring.
He seems like a player, but he's very innocent and charming.
Have you seen our boss drive?
You would've fallen for him too...
when he steers the wheel like this if you were a girl.
All the women at the concert wouldn't stop staring at him.
They have good taste in men
When is he going to America?
He wants me to go with him, but I have to support my family.
Talk it over with him, instead of keeping it to yourself.
No, I don't want to.
He'll be leaving soon.
Ask him to stay.
He liked you even when he thought you were a guy.
Who knows? Maybe he'll stay.
Using love as an excuse to get in the way of an ambitious man's future is wrong.
Please leave a message after the beep...
Yoo-Joo, it's me.
Your phone's not turned off.
Maybe you went outside for a walk.
Yoo-Joo, take your time before you come back.
But please turn the phone on.
It'll be even better if you pick up.
Why are you eating so late at night?
Your face will swell up.
- Is Eun-Sae sleeping? - Yes.
You're really dating your boss, right?
Why?
What do you mean, why? I'm just amazed.
I was nervous when you went to work pretending to be a guy.
But look where you are now.
You used to be as small as a bean, but now you're all grown up.
I'm 20 years old. Even beans will grow with that much time.
It'll be even weirder if I didn't grow.
You're right.
- Eat. - Okay
But...we're not up to par with his family.
You can't be too out of level.
What about our family?
This tastes good.
I'll be your taster.
Okay.
Awesome.
You make me expect too much out of women.
There isn't a thing you can't do.
You're such a smooth talker.
That's overkill.
She went to the fish market in the early morning to buy crabs!
I have a son too!
You're getting jealous again.
Hold on.
Mom!
Hold on.
Have a hearty meal.
We're going somewhere today.
Han-Gyul.
You've met Lee Myung-Je a few days ago, right?
Yes.
He's your biological father.
I told him.
We can't expect him to understand his parents.
If he gets mad at you for not telling him, just listen.
It took him 30 years to visit his biological mother.
I'll get going.
You can come with Han-Gyul.
Okay.
You've pulled through well.
Pretty impressive.
You're good.
Wooga wooga wooga wooga!!
Come over here, Cheetah.
- Hurry... - Okay.
You must' ve practiced a lot!
You draw much better than me.
Maybe I'll take a test to be a barista.
What about Taekwondo?
I can't afford to open a dojang.
Besides, I like coffee.
By the way, do baristas make a lot of money?
When I went to Turin, I visited a famous cafe that's half the size of our cafe...
...with sales as high as a midsized company.
- Really? - It depends.
Do you expect to make $100,000 a month right away?
I wish I can make about twice as much as I make now.
Then I won't have to worry about Eun-Sae's tuition or Mom's allowance.
I couldn't wish for more.
Keep wishing.
Otherwise, you'll turn out like me.
I wonder how he feels.
Wish he were to call...
I liked her a lot... your real mom.
I admired how she struggled to put herself through school.
The three of us, including Lee Myung-Je, were friends.
We both ended up liking her.
I asked her to marry me and promised her that we'll always be together.
But your grandma was against it because she was an orphan...
No, actually, I left her because I changed my mind.
Yet she never blamed me.
Whenever I saw you, I felt guilty towards my wife and your real mother,
but I enjoyed raising you.
I'm angry. but I don't know what I'm angry about.
Maybe it's my real father who finally showed up.
Maybe it's you and Grandma who waited this long to tell me.
Maybe it's me, for thinking all along that I was your son.
Han-Gyul...
Enough. Not today, Father.
He hasn't been picking up his phone the entire day.
Hey girl, what's up with your lover?
He said he'll come late after meeting his Grandma.
I guess he can't make it.
He's ignoring his buddy's calls, yet he's in touch with his baby.
Whatever happened to our friendship of 8 years?
Stop making fun of me.
I'm not making fun of you.
If I make fun of his baby, and make his baby cry,
my boss will get mad at me for doing that to his baby!
Don't you agree?
By the way, the boys want to throw a farewell party for Han-Gyul.
Have you talked to him about what you'll do after he's gone?
Does he have to go all the way to America to make toys?
Of course!
That's where the headquarters is.
Besides, not everyone can be hired as a designer in just 3 years.
Really? When?
They called him last week.
Isn't he something?
He's been working hard for 3 years as a block designer,
getting only 2~3 hours of sleep per day.
He finally did it!
Coffee Prince is doing well too.
Eun-Chan, let me give you a piece of advice.
Don't trample on a man's ambition in the name of love.
Trample? What is he, a flower?
If you don't want you guys to be apart, go to America with him.
It's not somewhere I can visit by taking the subway.
It'll cost too much to go and live there.
Don't fret it.
Your rich boyfriend will take care of everything.
He'll buy you a house and a car.
I can't believe what I'm hearing!
Is that what you take me for?
Do you think I'll take anything he gives me?
Forget it then. You're embarrassing me.
Then don't say that in front of me.
I was going to send him off in the first place.
Hello?
Are you home?
No, not yet.
I think I'm on way home.
You think you're on your way home?
Well, maybe I'm near your house.
Then can you come over?
It's too much of a hassle, but if you insist...
No, forget it. You must be tired.
No, I'm not tired?
How long will it take you?
Three minutes!
Did anything happen?
Of course!
We've been getting waffle delivery requests since 9am in the morning.
I'm dead tired from making 20 deliveries on time.
And?
A bunch of thugs came in the evening...
and got mad because the coffee was greasy.
I told them that it's the oil from the coffee beans,
but they kept insisting that it's because the cup is dirty.
- And? - Why do you keep saying 'And'?
I missed you.
Same here, I missed you too.
Where did you go with your grandma?
The charnel house... to see my real mother.
I'm adopted, Eun-Chan.
The man who gave me my mom's picture is my real dad.
I don't think I'm quite following you.
My real parents and my now-father were friends.
My real parents got divorced in less than a year,
and my real father went to Australia and became unreachable.
I was born after that, and then my real mother died in an accident.
The parents I have now took me in as their son.
He's been raising his friend's son, who is also the son of the woman he once loved.
Grandma, Mom, and Dad lied to me.
I had no idea because they were so nice to me.
Yet I'm still upset.
They should've told me earlier.
Or they should've kept it a secret until the end.
What do they expect me to do now?
Don't you think I'm such a pathetic son to my father?
I've been rebellious for the last 12 years...
because I thought I was his illegitimate son.
You didn't know.
You had no idea.
I think I now know why people play with these.
This relieves stress.
You're not talented at all.
I heard that it's hard to be hired by the headquarters in America.
Is there anything you can't do?
You're so perfect, I feel powerless.
I guess Ha-Rim told you.
Why do you look so happy? You're making me sad.
Come with me.
I'll stay here.
You can go to America by yourself.
I'll write to you at least once a week.
You don't want to go with me?
If I do, I'll only distract you.
I have to work too.
I'm the breadwinner in my family.
If this is because of your family, I can...
I'll take care of it.
Don't worry about it.
I've been doing fine up until now without anyone's help.
I'll pull through. Don't worry about me.
Just keep making toys in America, instead of fooling around.
I didn't want to tell you this because you'll get too flattered,
but don't wear black shirts anymore.
The women stare at you too much.
Anything else?
I think women stare at me when I brush my hair like this.
See? See? You smile like that to everyone!
I can't tell if that's your dimple or your wrinkles.
Stop doing that to other people!
Eun-Chan.
Yes?
Maybe I'll stay.
What do you mean, you'll stay?
You worked hard for 3 years.
I'll just pretend you're serving in the Army and wait for you.
If you cheat on me, I'll kill you.
You're so cute!
Are you that sad?
Then we can visit each other once a month, no... once a week!
You can come to America, and I can go to Korea.
Do you know how much the airfare will cost?
I'll buy your tickets.
I'm not a gold digger. I'll pay for that myself.
Since we can't be far apart for too long...
Once a year? Or every 6 months?
Every 6 months?
No way.
Do you think we can stand 6 months without seeing each other?
We have no choice.
Ouch! Wait.
This is Han Jung-Hwan from Chungwoon Films.
I sent you a script.
Please call me after you take a look at it.
Why are you working so late at night?
No wonder your fingers are blistered.
I'm just not good at it.
The woman upstairs works twice as much as I do, but she's fine.
You're coming home late nowadays.
I think so too.
Look at your hand!
Forget it. Go to bed.
- I'll do it. - No, you'll be tired.
- I'll do it. - Forget it.
Good night, Mr. Choi.
Bro...baby...
Eww.
I'm hungry, but your refrigerator is empty.
I'll be back with groceries.
You're not mad anymore, right?
Go back to sleep.
- Yoo-Joo...Don't take too long. - Okay.
Don't look at me like that!
Stop it!
What are you so mad about?
What have I ever done wrong to you?
You've been pissed for days!
- What about you? - 'What about you?'
I decided to let my boss go by himself, so cut it out.
Really?
Do I look like I'm lying?
Are you going to say you did it for us? Just go!
Come over here with that brush.
First you get mad because I'm leaving, then you get mad at me for staying.
And your hair is a mess!
Your boss must be very disappointed.
He's crying his heart out.
He said he'll visit once a week because he'll miss me
But I scolded him for wasting his money.
If we can't pull through this one, then there's no point in going out with him.
See? Even your hair is rebellious, just like you!
By the way, I think Hwang the lgnorant is cheating on me.
He's been ignoring my calls and my text messages.
Hwang Min-Yup? Has he gone mad or something?
But you're his angel!
I'll teach him a lesson.
Let's have ddukbokgi tonight with lots of odeng.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Bye, Mom! - Bye.
Mom! Eun-Chan's not going to America!
She's not?
What about her boss?
He's going by himself.
By himself?
Isn't it great?
Good morning!
Don't you ever listen?
You just had to wear that black shirt, didn't you?
Didn't you know? I'm a rebel.
Are you okay? I was worried about you.
Because of my mom?
I'm okay.
Mr. Choi, you're awesome.
I get my work done, no matter what.
Good morning!
Hi. Eun-Chan.
Clean the restroom.
Someone must've had a bad aim. It's filthy in there.
Okay!
My Chan!
The women's restroom is out of pads. Get some.
Okay!
Hey!
This is mine!
What? Isn't that mine?
You gave it to me as a gift 2 years ago.
Let me take a look.
Yes! I used my credit card to buy this last year.
Did l?
I was shocked when I saw that it was gone.
- A lot of these CDs are mine. - No, they're not!
Fine then! You can keep everything.
Did you get the groceries?
Yes, I'll make you doenjang stew.
Why don't we throw a party?
Let's ask Han-Gyul and Eun-Chan to come.
You don't want to?
I want to.
Okay, then.
I'll help you after I organize all these.
I'm good.
- Hello, Han-Gyul. - Did Han Yoo-Joo call?
I think her phone's on.
She came back yesterday.
Really?
Where was she?
Yoo-Joo wants to invite you and Eun-Chan for dinner.
Are you free tomorrow?
Why Eun-Chan?
Are you sure Han Yoo-Joo isn't planning a revenge?
I don't know. Suit yourself. I have to go. Bye.
What do you think?
Awesome!
Where were you?
By a quiet beach.
What's that beach's number?
Give me that beach's number,
as well as all your friends' and relatives' numbers.
By the way, why did you come back?
It doesn't make any sense.
After all I've done to you, I can't just leave you for being temporarily shaken.
I missed you.
When?
When the wind blew, when I walked, when I went to bed myself,
and when I woke up in the morning by myself.
What about Eun-Chan?
I completely got over her when I saw you packing.
Thanks, for coming back.
I've never thought that I'll get dumped.
Because I always thought that you loved me more.
But my heart stopped whenever I noticed the change in the way you looked at me,
and whenever you sighed.
Come on, Han Yoo-Joo.
It's funny how I lost my confidence when I thought that I liked you more.
That's why I decided to hang onto my last strand of pride...
and leave you before you left me.
That's why I ran away.
I was scared that you might not ask me to stay.
You're such a sly fox.
Thank you for asking me to stay.
Nice weather!
How refreshing.
The two of you did nothing but play with blocks at that hour in a confined area?
We ate ramen too.
Ramen at midnight?
Without any physical contact?
We hugged.
What? You're going to be the death of him!
Women don't understand men at all!
What women feel maybe once a day, men feel dozens of times a day,
once every 52 seconds...
Feel what?
For men, it flares up, shoots up, and fires up every morning...
Don't you get it?
Really?
Do I have to tell you everything?
Then what do you do when that happens?
Me?
It depends.
Sometimes, I read.
Sometimes, I watch a video.
Jin Ha-Rin!
What are you telling her?
I'm trying to make your life easier.
Think about it.
Every night, she sits there innocently...
while your body is telling you something else.
But why does that have to be you?
- Oh, you're right. - Gosh, it stinks.
The restroom on the 2nd floor is clogged up again.
Eun-Chan, can you unclog the toilet?
Eun-Chan!
Chan, get me a sack of flour from the storage!
Hey!
You guys have hand and feet too!
Stop telling that little kid to do everything, will you?
Get your butt moving and do it yourself!
Jin Ha-Rim!
Don't you ever tell Eun-Chan about men again! Understand?
You're overreacting.
I'm only teaching her about life.
Besides, my Chan is in charge of the bathroom upstairs.
My Chan?
Stop calling her my Chan! She's mine!
She's a girl! Whatever happened to male chivalry?
You bastard...
What else do you want me to call my Chan? Ma'am?
- Jeez! - Sheesh!
He's so into her.
Male chivalry?
Fine then! After all, she's his baby!
- Wait! That's heavy! - Wait! Sit down, Ma'am.
This is for you, Ma'am.
What are you guys doing?
We're practicing male chivalry for our boss's baby.
Tell him how nice we are to you.
What are you guys talking about?
- The sun's in her way. - What are you doing?
What are you guys doing up there?
Practicing male chivalry, of course!
I don't want it! Stop it, will you?
She's about to enter the room.
Did you tell them to do that?
Why?
Because you looked tired.
Hello, Mom.
I was going to call you.
I'll visit this weekend.
You should go to the airport tomorrow.
Why?
Your real father's leaving tomorrow.
You'll be sad if you let him leave without saying goodbye.
He's leaving tomorrow?
Really? Did you talk to Yoo-Joo?
No, I talked to Han-Sung.
He wants us to have dinner at his place.
Can I go?
Are you sure Yoo-Joo won't mind?
Yes, but please don't eat all the food.
You'll shock them.
Both of them know that I'm a heavy eater.
I should bring a watermelon to his place.
You heard my phone conversation this morning, right?
My father's friend is leaving tomorrow morning.
My mom wants me to go and say bye to him.
I see.
Isn't she an angel?
She called me to tell me to go see him.
Are you listening?
I'm thinking.
There are so many things I don't know.
I don't know what I'm supposed to say to you right now.
I'd feel the same if I were in your shoes.
There's nothing you can say right now.
Did I tell you this too?
No, I don't want to flatter you too much.
Forget it.
What? Now, I'm itching to know.
Well...
You sound nice on the phone. Good night!
She's toying with me.
What now?
Have a good time with your father.
I shouldn't have said that.
I'll go and meet him.
Thank you, Eun-Chan.
He'll be leaving soon.
Hello, this is Lee Myung-Je.
This is Choi Han-Gyul.
Hi.
I'd like to see you.
May I come over right now?
How did you know that I'm leaving?
My mother told me.
Did you have breakfast?
A working person should eat his breakfast.
I met your father a few days ago.
He updated me on what happened.
I didn't expect to see you again before I leave.
When are you coming back?
Will you greet me if I do?
How tall are you?
About 184cm.
This is my number.
Feel free to call me if you ever come to Australia.
Take care.
Wait...
I heard that you have a son.
What's his name?
Han-Young. Lee Han-Young.
He just turned twenty.
He's almost as tall as you are. He looks a lot like you too.
Hello?
Choi Han-Gyul drank Miss Ko Eun-Chan's rejuvenating milk at 6:30AM...
and arrived at the airport at 8:10AM.
He dramatically met his real father at 8:20AM and shook hands with him...
and said goodbye without crying at 8:50AM.
It is 9:10AM right now.
Choi Han-Gyul is on his way to see his grandmother.
He'll be at the cafe passed noon after giving her his sales report.
But it hasn't been 3 months yet.
Why are you giving her a report already?
Can't you come back earlier?
Eun-Chan.
Yes?
Let's tell each other everything.
Like what?
Just everything.
If we love, miss, hate each other, or if we're mad.
Just everything.
Let's not hurt each other or feel helpless out of ignorance.
Let's tell each other everything, okay?
Okay, I'll tell you everything.
I won't keep anything from you anymore.
I'll tell you everything. Everything.
Good.
