(Episode 32)

Officer Moo.

Do Hyun?

I have a question for you.

Do you have a husband?

What?

You told me you have a child, but never spoke about your husband.

Jin Do Hyun.

I guess you aren't married, seeing you're avoiding the question.

- Goodbye. - Would you like to date me?

Be my girlfriend.

Look who's here. Mr. Cha.

Long time no see.

Why are you doing this to me?

You want to do this here?

Let's go somewhere to talk.

I'm worried...

this might be obstruction of justice.

Did you ask why?

There is no reason.

It's because I've come to like you, Officer Moo.

That's it.

I explained myself.

It's my turn to hear an answer.

I have no intention of dating you.

Why not?

I'd fall for me if I were a woman.

Let's see if any other man...

can be such a gentleman after being accused of sexual assault.

You must've acted very proper.

I don't think it's something you should be proud of.

I'm leaving, since I've told you how I feel.

I hope nothing like this happens again.

Are you not into men or is it just me?

Can I be honest?

Of course.

You're good at being honest.

Tell me.

I've been through a lot.

I can handle pretty much anything.

It's both.

For both reasons...

That was unexpected.

I should overcome it.

Okay. I'll accept your answer for now.

Let's go. I'll drive you home.

That's not necessary.

I can take a bus.

I understand. You just refused me.

You must feel uncomfortable around me.

Let's call it a day.

I'll see you again soon. Bye.

I'm home.

Didn't your partner scold you after I left?

Mom, he had every right to get angry at me.

I was so embarrassed.

What did you do so wrong?

He was worried because I almost got hit by a car.

What? How did that happen?

The car that we stopped moved by mistake.

You should've been careful!

You deserve to be scolded.

That's why I told you to stop.

I was irritated by the heat.

When I saw you like that, I became so angry.

So many people around me got angry at me.

That gives me such a hard time.

I could see that.

You can tell many things by a person's behavior.

When he said sorry,

he said it politely, but he seemed cold-hearted.

That's... That's not entirely true.

He's fair and competent.

I can learn a lot from him.

Also, he helped me a lot without taking credit for it...

when I was going through hard times.

Is that so?

Well... He seemed like a nice person though.

He's good-looking too.

You said you can tell many things by a person's behavior.

I'm just saying that because you said he's nice.

Come out for dinner.

Oh, Mom. She's so cute.

Have you heard of a loan shark at a gambling house?

How do you know that?

The merchants of the market have been playing cards.

If there's a loan shark, isn't it a big pot?

- Who told you that? - Soo Ja told me.

You know the rice cake store owner, right?

I heard she's the loan shark.

Is that true?

Mom, ask Soo Ja where they play cards.

Why? Are you going to catch her?

Will you get benefit from it?

Well, yes. I might get commendation.

If I do, it will help me get promoted.

Is that so?

Okay. I'll ask her and tell you later.

Dad.

Are you alone?

Ms. Oh just went for a delivery.

She did?

Do you get a lot of delivery orders?

We get a lot of orders since Ms. Oh started working here.

I think she brought us good luck.

She works hard in the kitchen,

and keeps the restaurant floor spotless.

Maybe I should keep her. I don't even have to pay her much.

Actually, Dad...

I'm thinking of sending Hae Chan...

to an English camp during his break. What do you think?

An English camp?

Yes. Honestly, I wish I could send him overseas to study for a year,

but I don't think we can afford it.

So I'll send him to a camp during his break.

What did Baek Ho say?

He threw a fit saying we can't afford it.

Does Hae Chan want to go there?

He doesn't know what's good for him.

I should guide him as his mom.

Unless Hae Chan wants to go, don't send him there.

Many kids go astray there,

and kids don't like it when their moms control their lives.

Besides, going to college isn't everything in life.

You and Baek Ho didn't go to college, but you're doing well.

That's all that matters.

- In fact, Dad... - I'll get going now.

See you at home.

Was he afraid I might ask for money?

1, 2. Stop.

Here's your chicken.

It tastes good when it's hot.

It looks delicious.

- Fried chickens here are good. - Is that so?

Right? I put extra effort into it.

By the way, you seem to play cards quite often.

We just have fun after closing our stores.

Why don't you join us? It's so fun you lose track of time.

I don't have any money.

Yes, you do. We'll pay you for the chicken.

I should give that money to the restaurant owner.

Aren't you the owner?

You look like a restaurant owner.

No, I'm just a part-time employee.

I'll lend you some money.

Well... No, no. I should go now.

Who will pay for the chicken?

Have a seat there and wait.

I'll win this round and pay you.

What?

Oh, okay then.

I'm the one who got rejected. Why are you drinking so fast?

Don't ask. I don't want to talk about it.

How timid you are.

How can you be so cool about it?

It was obvious.

If she was happy to date me, she's not in her right mind.

She's completely crazy.

When she rejected me, I wasn't surprised.

She's nothing like those girls who are slaves to money.

What are you going to do now?

I have to make an effort. Gosh.

I've never made an effort for a girl in my entire life.

She was once married, and she has a child.

So what? I didn't say I'm going to marry her.

There you go. That's you.

What about you? What are you going to do?

I haven't decided yet.

I don't know if I should keep trying...

by any means possible,

or wait for her pretending to be cool.

If I were you, I'd go for the former,

but you should be yourself.

Anyway, I'm relieved...

that Bo Ra rejected you.

I'm not going to be your enemy.

Why does it keep bothering me?

Go out with me.

Look who's here. Hello, Inspector Cha.

I told you to read questions carefully.

You always make mistakes.

What about the other kids?

Don't you know how many questions they got wrong?

I'm sure they did better than me.

- Why didn't you ask them? - Hee Jin.

Are you trying to make his stomach upset?

Eat up.

What?

Dad, how do you like my bean soup?

I like it. It's good.

Grandma, do you not like it?

Why don't you eat some more?

I ate a lot.

What is with her?

Is she feeling unwell?

She's been acting weird lately.

The weather is too hot lately. The heat irritates people.

I know my grandma well.

There's something going on with her.

Ms. Oh, didn't she say anything to you?

What?

How would she know that?

She works at the restaurant all day long.

Why are you leaving already?

My stomach feels uncomfortable.

Enjoy your breakfast.

What is with both of them?

Did they have a fight?

Thank you for the breakfast.

I should get going too.

Mom, I'll get going too. See you later.

What's with everyone?

Hae Chan, read questions carefully.

Don't be late for your classes at the institute.

- You heard me, right? - She's just clueless.

She dropped a bomb, but she has no idea what she's done.

My fingers got much better now.

I wonder how Father has been doing.

I think he should take it to the next level.

I'm worried.

I got a tip-off about illegal gambling.

There's a loan shark who lends money and takes the interest.

I think it's a big pot.

Who tipped you off?

- It's... It's my mom. - Your mom?

My mom's friend runs a store at the market. She told my mom.

Do you know where they play cards?

No. I don't know that yet.

My mom will find out and tell me.

Even your mom stepped up maybe because you're a police officer.

She reported it right away. I like how she thinks.

So I was thinking of searching around the loan shark's house.

Discuss it with Mr. Cha...

and plan a stakeout if necessary.

Yes, sir.

Do we get awards for arresting gamblers?

Is your goal to get awards and get promoted?

No, I didn't say that.

Gambling is a crime. We should catch them,

although I feel bad since it's someone I know.

I need to draw a line between that and work.

Do you know how to draw lines between work and your personal life?

Excuse me. What did I do?

Why does Jin Do Hyun keep coming to see you?

That's just because of work.

Because of work? Are you sure?

This is your workplace. Watch what you do.

What did I do?

Did he overhear?

Oh my. This is much bigger than Su Hyuk's room.

Actually, it's bigger than our house.

Gosh.

I wish this were Su Hyuk's room.

Oh, wait a minute.

Let's see.

What's this and what's this?

Oh my. Could this get any better?

He scared me.

What?

Look, this is my chair.

No one sits in it without my permission.

Why are you boasting about that old chair?

This is why I like you.

I like the blunt way you talk.

It reminds me of someone.

Maybe I like the style of old women.

Go out so I can clean the room.

No, I'll wait outside.

You can change first.

- Wait. - What?

What do old women fall for?

Old women? Are you talking about that woman you mentioned?

You said she was married.

She has a child, but not a husband.

So, you're going to date her?

She turned me down, but I'm going to give it a try.

This is a secret.

You should just date a single woman.

You don't seem like the type to stick with one woman,

so don't end up hurting her.

I'm sure I'm into her right now,

but I don't know I'll have this feeling forever.

That's why you should quit now.

Don't say that and give me some tips.

What would make her fall for me?

The fact that you're trying to plan something means it's fake.

Fake? How are you so sure?

I don't feel your sincerity at all.

- Ms. Lee! - Come on.

You'll find out if you really have feelings for her.

You'll be able to see what she likes and dislikes.

You'll think of her when you're having good food.

She loves sundaeguk.

Sundaeguk?

She's an interesting young woman.

My daughter never liked it.

She really loves sundaeguk.

She laughs just by watching me eat it.

I like her, don't I? It's sincere, isn't it?

Does it look good?

It would be his loss if he doesn't go with it.

Hi, it's been a while.

Thanks to you, we've been working in a comfortable environment.

What? Is that so?

Of course.

Don't say that. It's yours.

I'm thankful and feel sorry for using it for free all this time.

Okay, call me when it's settled.

Bye.

Who was it?

The owner of our office wants to rent it out.

What should we do?

What? What are we going to do?

Let's wait and see.

We can move out if we have to.

Move where?

We started out in a storage room.

Where am I supposed to sleep?

Are you going somewhere?

Yes, to meet an advertiser.

Good luck.

I'll see you when I get back.

Are you going to see me when you get back?

I was swamped with work.

I hope both people like it.

See you.

Bye.

Ju Young, why do you look so down?

What are you talking about?

This office belongs to Su Hyuk's friend.

We were using it for free.

He suddenly asked us to move out.

He wants to rent it out,

but we have nowhere to go.

What did Su Hyuk say?

He told me not to worry.

He doesn't mind if we go back to the storage room.

Will it be okay if you get the advertisement?

Of course.

But the client was bullying us around like no other.

I'm not sure if it'll work out.

Are you saying you're right?

I'm not like you.

Come on.

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Don't mention it. I should thank you.

I had very important things in my bag that day.

Do you live in this neighborhood?

What?

Yes.

Hae Chan, who do you take after? You're very handsome.

He takes after his mom.

People say I look more like my uncle than my mom.

Your uncle?

His uncle is a police officer and he's very cool.

Show her a photo.

Is your uncle that handsome?

Yes.

He's a lieutenant at Chamsu-ri Substation.

Give me a second.

This is my mom,

my dad,

my great-grandmother,

grandfather...

and this is my uncle.

Excuse me.

(Husband)

Why would you go with a stranger? What if she were a bad person?

You're not a child, to go with her for hamburgers.

You're right. I'm not a child and I can make a judgement.

She seems to be very rich.

She drives a luxurious car and is very pretty.

Hyun Soo says she looks like you.

Me?

She must be gorgeous.

I can't see the resemblance.

Mom, can I skip the institute today?

You keep asking me.

Go immediately.

See you later.

Bye, see you.

Bye.

- That's weird. - What is it?

She must be pretty if she looks like me.

Your mother must've been pretty.

I barely remember.

It was so long ago.

I wonder where my mom is, and what she's doing.

Hello?

It's me. Has my wife eaten anything?

Ms. Heo went out.

She went out? To where?

I don't know that.

She went out all of a sudden.

It seemed that she was in a hurry.

Gosh. Seriously.

Dad!

Are you eating lunch now?

I brought you cold coffee.

Drink it after your lunch.

It'll remove the smell of jjajangmyeon.

I guess you can't stop thinking about the hotel.

Don't you think this is too obvious?

You know that I behave exactly how I think.

After you told me about the hotel,

I came to think that I should be nicer to you.

There's one more condition.

What is it?

Clean up your love life,

find a right-minded girl, and marry her.

If you can't find one, I'll ask your mom.

I wondered what it would be.

I've decided to start dating someone.

I found a right-minded girl.

- Who is she? - You don't need to know that yet.

Enjoy jjajangmyeon,

and cold coffee.

One more thing.

I love you, Dad.

Stop it. You silly boy.

Where on earth did she go?

The first building in Korea...

built with consideration of the disabled and elderly people.

It might sound old-fashioned, but...

It's not bad.

I really like being the first.

It's quite original.

We don't have to pursue young people's preferences.

- That's the point. - I thought it'd be predictable...

that aims to attract young people.

I think we might work together for long.

After this project, I'll start a hotel business.

Thank you.

Proceed with this proposal.

I'll be looking forward to your final proposal.

I'll do my best.

Oh, yes!

Is that the advertising proposal?

Yes, it is.

You seem to like it.

It's very good. It's original.

My dad likes to get compliments.

This will be something that he can brag about.

Bo Ra will be glad.

What do you mean?

I think Bo Ra likes him.

What are your sources?

He works at the office across Bo Ra's. Didn't you know?

What?

Here's your favorite redbean bun.

Why did you buy this again?

You didn't eat much for breakfast.

I thought you would be happy for Father.

Did you know?

Of course, I did. You know I'm fast on catching on people.

I didn't even noticed it.

What worries you so much?

Many things...

including the fact that she has a son.

What's wrong about that?

It's not like he's a little child.

He's old enough to get married.

Also, we don't have so much money that we'll fight for inheritance.

Still, she has her own son.

She'll probably be tempted.

Still, Grandmother,

Father won't have to be alone anymore.

He looks so happy when he's with Ms. Oh.

Seeing him like that made me happy.

I thought he'll finally become happy.

She's pretty, nice, and good at house chores.

She's perfect.

Father is so lucky.

Hee Jin didn't seem to know this.

She's clueless. I gave her signals, but she went on talking nonsense.

I don't know who she takes after. She's so clueless.

You know how they say the husband is always the last to know.

Even I didn't know even though she stayed in my room.

Please help him get married.

I will assist you.

Come on out. This is your second stakeout.

Make sure you'll succeed this time.

Yes, sir. I'll succeed this time.

- Did you upset Mr. Cha? - Pardon?

It's just that he seems cranky to you lately.

She's right. He drank for her...

They seemed inseparable for a while...

being affectionate for each other.

Did you do something to upset him?

I always cause trouble,

and do a lot of stupid things and get too emotional.

Why would he like me?

Do you want to switch partner?

- How about you work with Mr. Park? - Pardon?

Right. You don't want that, do you?

What are you talking about?

Officer Moo, answer Mr. Lee.

I'd be happy to work with my old partner.

Corporal Jang, what about me?

Quit it.

Officer Moo, who was the man you were with in the restaurant?

Mr. Cha seemed to know him too.

Did you see me?

Didn't you say you would eat chicken soup?

There was no empty table maybe because it was the hottest day.

Who is he?

He's the victim of the random assault whom I helped.

- Is he the victim? - Yes.

Then, why did Mr. Cha look like that?

He seemed upset.

Let's go.

See you later.

- See you. Good luck. - See you.

Good luck with the stakeout.

See you later. See you later.

See you.

We've been waiting here for an hour.

Do you think we're at the wrong place?

Yesterday, in the restaurant...

Did you...

Did you see something?

A woman just entered the building.

I didn't see her.

That's because you were distracted.

It's you...

Never mind.

Make sure you see everyone coming and going.

Yes, sir.

Hee Jin went to pick Hae Chan up, right?

Yes.

I'm sure it's not just a casual relationship.

I don't think that's what Sang Chul wants either.

So I thought I should tell you about the situation my family is in.

Please go on.

As Sang Chul has been single for a long time,

you might think his children will be happy for him...

when they hear that Sang Chul is getting remarried.

However, it's different for them.

After all,

their mom is still alive.

You heard Hee Jin yelling at me, so you must know.

Because I kicked their mom out,

they had to part with their mom.

You care about your grandchildren so much.

Why did you do that?

I was worried...

she might be in the way of my son and grandchildren.

She caused a money problem because of her family.

She even had a guy problem.

If I think about it now...

What's on your mind?

Hi.

- Are you feeling better now? - Yes, I feel better.

I called earlier today, but you didn't answer.

Did you call?

I've been so out of it lately.

I was taking a bath.

Wash up and come out. I'll have dinner ready.

(Lovers in Bloom)

You know Dami Ad, don't you?

I won't do the ad with him if you're dating him.

Answer me. I'm very nervous right now.

I've given it a lot of thought.

They seem to get away every time we have a stakeout.

We'll have to get our hands on them.

Maybe I got injured for them to meet.

Officer Moo, you're dating, aren't you?

Isn't it the man you had sundaeguk with?

- Do you hate me that much? - I hate you very much.

Are you overusing your authority?

It happens several times a day.

Don't you know why?
