Right.

Shoot. I took the wrong bus and got off halfway.

I was lost in thought.

What?

Yes, it's my first day. Why?

Whatever. I'm hanging up.

Gosh.

It's like a superpower.

I bet you can't do it with one hand.

I can't either.

- We want to learn that too. - Why?

- Couple T-shirts. - What?

You're a couple, right?

- What couple? - I think they are.

- She's good, right? - Yes, she's fast as lightning.

She's so cool.

She's like a real genius.

Ta-da.

Wow, you're so awesome.

Can you teach me the moves?

- Me too. - Me too.

The bus is here.

- See you next time. Bye. - Okay.

Right?

- What? - GB Home Shopping.

Six for 59.90 dollars.

The quality is amazing for the price,

and they're machine washable.

- Do you work for the company? - No, I'm just a customer.

That green you're wearing looks great on you,

but there's a purple one in the set of six.

That one's really pretty too.

Right.

I saw you playing with the kids earlier.

You were great with them.

They're the same age as my youngest siblings.

Ma'am.

Is she sleeping?

Ma'am, are you okay?

Driver, please open the door.

Ma'am.

Ma'am, are you okay?

Ma'am.

Ma'am.

From now on, Gyu Rim will be in charge...

of teaching Mu Jin...

Wait... Han Gyu Rim?

Where's Han Gyu Rim?

- Gyu Rim said she'd be late. - Why?

Well...

she said she's taking an elderly woman...

who collapsed to the hospital.

She chose the wrong profession.

She should have joined the emergency services.

Why is she working part-time at a restaurant?

Her nickname was always Chief Han.

If something happened to someone, somewhere,

Chief Han would appear without a doubt.

Ma'am, are you okay? Are you conscious?

Who are you?

I'm the person from the bus stop earlier.

They said you collapsed from exhaustion.

I called your son, so he should be here soon.

Mom, Park Su Nam? Mom!

Mom, are you okay?

That hurts, you punk. My gosh.

Gosh, if you're not feeling well, you should go to the hospital first.

If something had happened to you, I would've died too. Seriously.

I should get going now.

Excuse me, you're the one who found my mom...

- and called me, right? - Yes.

How can I just let my mother's saviour leave like this?

- Saviour? I'm no saviour. - No, please.

Please take good care of your mother.

- Ma'am, get well soon. Stay strong! - Hey, miss!

Heung Sik.

Mom.

Mom, are you okay?

Is there another young lady as nice as her in this world?

Well, there might be, but it's safe to say they're rare.

When I opened my eyes earlier,

- I thought an angel was in front. - Did you?

- What's our family motto? - Repay your enemies twice over...

and your benefactors 1,000 times over.

You must repay her. If you don't repay a kindness,

- you're no better than an animal. - I know. Mom, don't worry.

- Just try not to get sick. - What's that young lady's name?

You should know. How would I know?

- Not even finding out her name? - Mom, you don't know?

Ignorant fool. How would I know when I just recovered?

- Then what do we do? - Good grief, that foolish kid.

Han Gyu Rim.

Manager.

What are you smiling about?

You know I can spit in a smiling face, right?

If your dream is to volunteer, you should just quit...

and pursue that dream to your heart's content.

Didn't I tell you that?

I'm sorry.

Instead, for a whole month, I'll close the bar and floor...

every single day, no rotations.

So please, just 1 more time. Really, just 1 more time. Please.

Well, if you put it that way, Gyu Rim.

Then we'll have Gyu Rim handle...

closing the floor and bar for a month.

This is Kim Mu Jin, who's starting today.

- You can train Mu Jin, right? - Yes, of course.

We've met before, right?

Yes, 59.90 dollars.

I look forward to working with you, senior.

Yes, me too.

Mom, isn't our Gyu Young so pretty?

She is.

Where did you find such a pretty and nice young lady?

Hey, she looks just like your mother when she was young.

She's much prettier than me.

You're more beautiful, ma'am.

I thought she was just pretty, but she speaks beautifully too.

You go to medical school?

- Yes, that's right. - No. Gyu Young isn't just pretty,

she's smart too.

Hey, get a grip, you punk.

That kid.

Look who's here. Han Gyu Young, right?

How many months is this one?

- Excuse me, ma'am. - Who are you?

Who on earth are you?

It seems you've been bewitched by a 1,000-year-old fox,

- and I couldn't pretend not to see. - Why are you speaking so harshly?

She's a very scary girl.

Well, even at a glance,

you don't seem like an ordinary family...

- Which is why she seduced him. - Ma'am.

Gyu Young.

Do you know this woman?

She does. She knows me very well.

She's pretty,

and because she goes to a prestigious medical school,

she acts like she's already a licensed doctor,

sucking the life out of this man and that man...

and when she's done, she dumps them overnight,

turning a perfectly fine person into a wreck.

I have something to attend to, so I think I should be excused.

I'll treat you to a delicious meal soon,

ma'am, sir.

I heard the longest you dated someone was eight months.

Is that right?

You should save your sleep-talking for home, ma'am.

My son is still seeing a psychiatrist because of her.

- If you don't want him a wreck... - Ma'am.

I'm telling you this because I think you should know the facts.

The reason I broke up with your son is because while he was dating me,

he was sleeping around with bar girls,

- so I dumped him out of disgust. - What?

Your son was making a scene, saying it was all his fault...

and begging me to take him back,

but I couldn't stand the sight of him,

so when I exposed everything,

it came out that he'd even attempted to rape a junior,

and that's why your son is seeing a psychiatrist...

to get a reduced sentence for diminished capacity.

Well, since it seems you've already thrown everything into chaos,

shall I spell out for you just how much...

of a scumbag your son is?

Gyu Young, Han Gyu Young.

Gyu Young. How could you just leave like this?

I'll take care of everything.

If my parents oppose our relationship...

because of what happened today,

I can even abandon my parents.

All I need is you, Gyu Young, so let's...

Then why would I date you?

- What? - If you throw away...

your parents' money, connections, and all that,

you're just a dim-witted loser with no future.

So why would I date you?

You said it yourself that you love me.

You said you were crazy in love with me.

I do love you.

You spend money freely, drive a nice car,

wear designer clothes from head to toe,

the you with a guaranteed, dazzling future,

that's the you I'm crazy in love with.

Gyu Young.

If you want to get back together with me, convince your parents.

Tell them you'll die without Han Gyu Young.

They wouldn't let their only son die, would they?

No...

Gyu Young.

- Han Gyu Oh, where are you going? - To my cram school.

Hey, I heard you're prepping for a sports university. How's it going?

- I'm just doing it. - Man, that must be tough.

You're there until 11:00?

Hey, did you bring any coins?

- What did you bring? - This punk.

- No, let me see. - Hey, Gyu Oh, let's just go.

- I hear coins jingling in your bag. - Let's go, Gyu Oh.

You guys go ahead.

We'll go on ahead, then.

Young Jun, let's do this properly.

This kid.

- This punk isn't even answering. - Hey, when someone talks, listen.

Why are you being so difficult, you jerk?

And who are you?

Gyu Oh.

Get up.

Okay.

What are you doing?

Stop acting tough before you get your ass kicked...

and just go on your way.

I don't want to.

You don't want to?

You son of a...

Hey, are you okay?

- Hey, this bastard. - Hey, you bastard.

Hit him, quick. Hit him. Right here.

Darn it!

The rib eye and garlic, and what was the other one, pepperoni?

Garlic and pepperoni, right?

Yes.

- Is there another problem? - This is just too much.

Don't you understand what I'm saying?

I asked for medium rare, on the rarer side, but what is this?

Before it was rare, and now it's medium.

Can't you cook it evenly? And the garnish, too. I asked for it...

well-done, but how is this well-done?

It's medium-well.

And there's a hair in here, too.

First of all, I apologise.

However, this is a long, wavy hair,

and none of our staff has hair like that.

What? Are you suggesting we're just trying...

- to find fault for no reason? - Hey, forget it. Let's go.

Gosh.

I'm not spending a single cent on a garbage meal like this,

so you know. Gosh.

I should start a live stream as soon as we leave.

They don't admit their mistake or apologise.

I'll tell people not to waste their time and money...

at a garbage place like this that suspects its customers.

My arm is getting tired.

You were very upset earlier, weren't you?

You must have been angry and felt it was unfair.

Why do I have to go through this? How can I get revenge?

Should I keep doing this job?

Should I just quit?

At times like that...

When you're angry, upset, and feel it's unfair,

you drink sweet cocoa like this.

And you cast a spell.

It's nothing. It's no big deal.

Let's forget it all. Let's erase it.

Because if I keep thinking about it, it'll only hurt me.

Want to try it?

Drink it?

Then close your eyes...

and while taking a deep breath, cast the spell in your mind.

Now, close your eyes.

It's nothing. It's no big deal.

I won't give you an inch of my heart or my memory.

No matter how much you mess with me,

see if I so much as bat an eyelash or a single strand of hair moves.

Okay, now you're going to open your eyes,

and you're going to open them with a smile.

- Do I have to smile? - Yes, you have to smile.

That's the only way to really let it go.

I don't really feel like smiling.

Come on, you've followed along well. Why be stubborn now?

Just try it. What have you got to lose?

Good job. You feel a bit better, right?

Getting angry, upset, and feeling wronged...

It would be best if things like that didn't happen,

but even if you do encounter such things...

or such people, don't let it consume you.

Cheer up. And don't quit your job.

I feel reassured.

That's just how I am.

And about those awful customers putting hair in the steak,

it seems it was captured perfectly on CCTV.

In high definition, too.

Really?

These days, the time it takes for karma to come around...

has gotten much shorter.

Yes, hello?

Yes, speaking.

What?

Yes. I'll be right there.

I have to go first. I'm sorry.

Let me see.

Oh no. My handsome son, what do I do?

Don't lift it up.

Really...

- Hey, you bastard. - Oh my.

Who do you think you are to touch my precious child...

that I can't even bear to touch?

What are you doing?

- Please have a seat. - Darn it.

- Mothers, fathers, calm down. - Calm down?

Dean of Students,

do we look like we can calm down right now?

Our kids went to school perfectly fine...

and came back beaten up like this in just a few hours?

Sir, don't think about letting the School Violence Committee...

handle this lightly.

I'm going to make sure this gangster bastard gets...

at least a forced transfer or expelled.

I won't let it slide.

Please investigate Young Jun's case properly and punish them.

They've been extorting money, stealing his sneakers and clothes,

bullying, hitting, and cursing at him.

And made him do all sorts of other horrible things.

Oh my, listen to him talk. Hey, my son is so innocent and kind.

Excuse me. Look at her smirking while an adult is talking.

I wonder what kind of manners they teach at her home.

Oh my, look at the change in her eyes.

Hey, you look like you're about to hit us too.

Hey. Don't you look at them like that.

How dare you be so rude.

Say that you were wrong. Okay?

"Please be generous and let it go just one time."

Come on, come on.

Hey, apologise quickly. Hurry. Gyu Oh.

- Look at that attitude. No apology? - Gosh, really.

Hey. Gosh, this kid, really.

- This little punk. - What do you think you're doing?

What?

Look at me.

Come on, let me see how badly you're hurt.

Hey, miss, who are you?

I'm Han Gyu Oh's older sister.

Tell his parents to come, not his sister.

How could they raise their child so poorly?

He doesn't have parents. You can talk to me.

Oh, so he has no parents.

That explains why the kid is such a mess.

Officers, what are you doing?

You should throw that thug in jail quickly and let our kids go.

They have to go to their academy and have so many other things to do.

- Aren't you being a bit harsh? - Harsh? What do you mean?

How can you say I'm being harsh...

when you've beaten someone else's precious sons to a pulp?

You should be on your knees begging for forgiveness, but instead,

- you're looking at us defiantly. - But I heard your sons started it.

- What? - They hit and bullied Young Jun.

- Gyu Oh tried to stop them... - This girl, honestly.

Who hit and bullied whom?

Our boys thought Young Jun was cute.

They were just playing around a bit and then that thug misunderstood.

Misunderstood?

Playing around?

If that was them "playing around,"

then I guess our Gyu Oh was just playing around too.

- I guess he found them cute. - What's this woman talking about?

Young Jun will tell us whether it was playing around or violence.

Darn it.

Young Jun.

Young Jun.

It's true, they were just playing around.

But Gyu Oh misunderstood for no reason.

Young Jun, that's not true.

They were bullying you, so Gyu Oh saved...

I said they weren't bullying me.

Then how are you going to explain getting hurt like this?

Who would call this "playing around?"

Gyu Oh did it.

These injuries...

are from when I tried to stop Gyu Oh, and he hit me.

- What? - Hey, Cho Young Jun.

You tell the truth.

I said tell the truth. Tell the truth, you bastard.

When did I hit you? When did I ever hit you?

Hey, I told you to tell the truth.

Let go of me. Hey, why are you lying?

Hey, I didn't hit you. Tell the truth.

Tell the truth. Hey.

I said let go.

You don't have to be afraid. I believe in our Gyu Oh.

We can't just sit around. We have to prepare a counterattack.

We're not without connections either. Just you wait.

(Gyu Young)

- What? - That teacher who really liked you.

You said he's the vice principal at Gyu Oh's school now, right?

And?

They're holding a violence committee for Gyu Oh.

- You should call him before then... - I don't want to.

You say no without even hearing me out.

Want me to call the vice principal...

and ask him to go easy on Han Gyu Oh, right?

Why did that punk cause trouble again? Is he rich?

Does that punk have a ton of money for settlement fees?

So if your close friend was getting beaten up...

by a bully, would you just walk by?

- Would you? - Yes.

I would.

Friends, my foot. Hey, who has friends...

in this day and age?

So did that friend take Han Gyu Oh's side?

Forget it. Don't do anything. Mind your own business.

I was going to mind my own business anyway. I'm busy enough as it is.

I'm hanging up.

Don't worry, Gyu Rim.

I'll take care of it tomorrow, so don't bother...

calling someone like Han Gyu Young.

Anyway, it's wrong to hit someone.

Even if it feels unfair, you have to say you were wrong.

Since you have no prior record and this was a one-time thing,

premeditation and continuity are zero points.

If you admit your fault and show remorse...

and promise not to do it again, that's also zero points.

Since the beating was severe...

and reconciliation is out of the question,

that's four points each,

for a total of eight points.

With Measure Four,

it will probably end with community service.

When did you study that?

In the taxi on the way to the police station earlier.

I'm sorry, Gyu Rim.

You're already having a hard time, and I just added to it.

Since you beat those kids up so badly,

it's a bit hard for me to praise you for doing a good job.

I don't know. If you'd seen Young Jun being beaten like that...

and just walked by,

I think I would have hated that more.

Really?

No, seriously, Young Jun didn't have...

a single spot on him that wasn't bruised.

How can kids who are only 19 years old be so vicious?

If they had run into me,

it would've been their funeral today.

Let's just live as we live. See what happens.

Let's go.

(Gyu Min)

Gyu Min.

Gyu Rim, please stop Gyu Seo.

Over there.

- Gyu Min. - Han Gyu Seo.

- Gyu Min - Gyu Seo.

Where are you all going? Goodness.

Gyu Rim.

- Gyu Rim. - Gyu Min. Are you okay?

- What about Gyu Seo? - Over there...

Over there? Let's go.

Hey.

Gosh.

Gyu Seo.

Gyu Seo, are you okay?

What's wrong? Why are you at Seoul Station...

- in the middle of the night? - His friend said...

that our mom is at Seoul Station, begging like a homeless person.

I told him he was lying and that we shouldn't go,

but Gyu Seo kept insisting we should go...

Do you know what your mom's face looks like?

How are you going to find her if you don't even know her face?

Hey.

Your mom is the person who abandoned you...

when you were only three years old.

What are you going to do when you find her?

- Come here. - Don't.

I know what your mom's face looks like.

- If you wait, I'll find her. - You don't have to find her.

We don't want to see our mom at all.

- I want to see her. - Hey, are you stupid?

Is it because you don't know what a bad person our mom is?

Don't cry.

Han Gyu Seo must be a total idiot.

You shouldn't say things like that to your younger sibling.

It's okay, Gyu Seo. Don't cry.

Gyu Min is just saying things she doesn't mean.

Don't cry. It's okay. Come here.

It's okay.

Let's cause trouble one person at a time.

At this rate, Gyu Rim...

will turn to dust and blow away. Seriously.

Oh, my gosh. You scared me.

Ma'am,

let's have a go.

What? Have a go at what?

No, why would you say such useless things...

and make your kid go around spreading that story?

Ma'am, did you really see the twins' mother...

I mean, our stepmother...

begging at Seoul Station?

- I didn't see her, but I heard. - Who did you hear it from?

Well, who did I hear it from?

Was it Suk Hui's mom? Was it Mr. Kim?

Was it Mi Yeong's grandma?

I don't remember the details, but anyway, I heard it too.

Oh, my.

You're talking about a story whose source...

you don't even remember properly,

as if you saw it yourself?

Honestly, that woman deserves to live...

by begging at Seoul Station.

She broke up a happy family, moved in for only three years,

popped out the twins, then ran off again...

- with the accounting manager. - Ma'am.

And did she just run away?

She took all your family's money, left you destitute, and bolted.

I mean, don't you hate her?

Don't you resent her at all?

Do you truly love the twins that bitch left behind...

as if they were your real siblings? Do you really have no backbone?

Gosh, if it were me, I'd... Oh, my, this girl...

Hey, wait. Oh my, hey.

Don't you have anything better to do?

I told you you're not my type...

and that I can't stand women like you.

I think I've said it several times.

And I've warned you hundreds of times...

that if I catch you again, there'll be no leniency.

- Hey. - Not sure we're on a "hey" basis.

Yes, is this the police station? I'd like to report a stalker.

Why am I a stalker?

You really don't recognise me?

It's me, Seo Hyun.

- Jang Seo Hyun. - Jang Seo Hyun? Who?

Hello?

You're Seo Hyun?

Hey, you're...

Hey, how can you be Seo Hyun? Wow.

Hey, I didn't recognise you.

Why?

- Yes. - Oh, my.

- Seo Hyun, it's been too long. - Chairman.

How long has it been?

But wait, what's this about you...

almost getting reported as a stalker?

I really had no idea it was Seo Hyun.

Does he have that many stalkers following him around?

He has a few.

Still, how could he not recognise me? Am I that ugly?

No, that's not it...

Stalkers look normal on the outside.

That's the problem, they only look normal.

Goodness. The last time I saw you was...

when I gave you New Year's money for studying abroad,

I think. You've already graduated?

Yes, I've graduated and gotten a job.

You've been well, Chairman? My greetings are late.

Seo Hyun, how have you become so pretty?

You've lost all your baby fat.

I wouldn't recognise you on the street.

You're dating, aren't you.

I really want to.

I've sent tons of emails and messages,

but he won't accept me. He just reports me as a stalker.

- What? - I'll go up, wash up, and change.

See you later.

- I see. - Mu Jin seems even more prickly.

He's just on edge because of...

his business management classes lately.

- Shall we go in there and talk? - Yes.

He doesn't seem easy,

so wouldn't it be better to change your target?

It's okay. I'm not a fan of easy men either.

Difficult men are my type.

I know I'm a lacking and inadequate daughter-in-law for you, Chairman,

so I'll do better and try harder. Okay?

My, we haven't seen each other in a while,

and you're coming on too strong, don't you think?

- Oh, Mother. - My goodness.

By the way, Seo Hyun. I met your father...

at a business gathering a few days ago.

Oh, yes, I heard.

- You get along with mom, right? - Oh, of course.

I feel sorry for my late mother,

but I like my current mom ten times more.

I'm going in.

- Hey. - It's quick, right?

Then close your eyes...

and while taking a deep breath, cast the spell in your mind.

Now, close your eyes.

It's nothing. It's no big deal.

I won't give you an inch of my heart or my memory.

No matter how much you mess with me,

see if I so much as bat an eyelash or a single strand of hair moves.

Okay, now you're going to open your eyes,

and you're going to open them with a smile.

You scared me.

What? When did you come in?

I knocked so many times. What were you so distracted by?

A cube? Why a cube all of a sudden?

I saw a woman who was good at this earlier, and she was really cool.

Who is she?

- Han Gyu Rim. - Han Gyu Rim?

Who's Han Gyu Rim?

Just someone.

Is it a girl you like?

I don't know if I like her, but I keep thinking about her.

Then you like her.

I guess so?

But it's only been a day.

What does time have to do with liking someone?

They say you can fall for someone in ten seconds.

Still, one day is a bit of a stretch.

What does she do?

Is she prettier than me? Where did she go to school?

What do her parents do?

Am I the type of person to fall for someone this easily?

Mu Jin.

No, how can you confess to liking another girl in front of me?

I did? When?

No. That can't be.

No way. That's impossible.

I'm going to go for a quick walk.

- You can hang out before you go. - Mu Jin.

- I'll just eat this and go. - Gosh.

Mu Jin.

No, it can't be.

Absolutely not.

What? What are you trying to do?

No, it's just...

I can ask something I'm curious about, right?

Nothing's wrong, is there?

Sleep well and see you tomorrow.

Saying "sleep well" already is a bit much.

It's a bit much. Nothing's wrong, is there?

See you tomorrow.

No.

Then why even ask if something was wrong?

See you tomorrow...

What's with the sudden "see you tomorrow?"

Hello?

(Gyu Rim)

Hello?

Hello, this is Kim Mu Jin.

Oh, Mu Jin.

What's up this late at night?

I was a bit worried after you left earlier.

I asked the Manager for your phone number.

Yes, I see.

I hope it wasn't a hot cocoa kind of situation.

Right.

I'm not sure what's going on,

but I hope it gets resolved well. I'll be hoping.

Sleep well and see you tomorrow.

Yes, thank you.

You too, Mu Jin. Sleep well and see you tomorrow.

Okay.

Gosh.

No, it wasn't bad.

It was natural. No, it was great. Actually great.

But what? So what are you going to do?

Mu Jin?

Hey, you're not planning to confess or anything, are you?

Of course not. What do I...

I don't know anything about Han Gyu Rim. That's not it.

And I won't in the future, either.

No, I don't know about the future. Wait, what am I saying?

It's tough,

but it's not difficult. It's doable.

So you're like an undercover boss or something?

Well...

Han Gyu Min, are you picking out the beans again?

- Gyu Min, your recorder is in here. - Jump rope.

Jump rope. Bring the jump rope.

- I don't like it. It's not pretty. - Should we do it on both sides?

Gosh, no.

Listen to your teacher and don't fight with your friends,

- watch for cars, have a good day. - Okay, bye.

Oh my.

Enjoy your meal.

- I'll be going. - Okay.

Okay.

Wait, what?

You must live in this neighbourhood.

No.

I mean, yes.

People are going to think we're a real couple.

It seems so.

- Have a seat. - Mu Jin, have a seat.

I'm fine. I like standing.

Thank you.

Here, give me your bag.

- It's fine. - Give it to me.

Thank you.

- I could've done that myself. - I just can't stand seeing this.

Oh, thank you.

It was untied last time too.

Why are you being so obvious, you punk?

Mu Jin. Let's be careful.

- What now? - Do you have 10,000 dollars?

What? Out of the blue.

- Do you have it or not? - Why ask for 10,000 dollars?

- Do you have it or not? Tell me. - Where would I get that money?

You really don't have it?

You work from dawn until late at night,

and you don't have 10,000 dollars?

You're not lying because you don't want to give it to me?

I don't. With my salary right now,

it's barely enough for our family of six to get by.

All right. I'm hanging up.

Look at that attitude.

If you're not going to give me money, shut up.

Such a temper. Gosh.

Hey, instead of that, try asking your mom.

I told you. Your mom...

and Sunghwa Apparel's Chairman Jang Hoon Tae...

got remarried.

Chairman Jang and my uncle are friends,

and I saw her in my uncle's photo with my own two eyes.

They say everyone in that circle knows...

your mom's Cinderella story.

She's probably too busy living her own life...

to remember people like us.

Still. Hey, your mother married into a wealthy family,

and you're just going to pretend you don't know?

She was so devastated when her husband cheated on her.

She probably wants to cut ties with everything.

If she wanted to find us, wouldn't she have done it already?

Do you think she had time to contact you?

I heard she was in the US for her daughter's studies...

and just came back.

Daughter? What daughter?

The daughter the chairman's late wife gave birth to.

They say your mom raised her like her own daughter.

Anyway, you should go see her.

It's not like you're trying to break up her family.

Just borrow some money.

I mean, her child is asking for money for school.

Do you really think she'd refuse?

If Han Gyu Rim finds out I went to see Mom, she'll kill me.

She's usually such a pushover, but she's scary when she snaps.

Really scary.

A mad dog lives inside Han Gyu Rim's heart.

- Seo Hyun. - Mom.

Did you have a good trip?

I'm sorry I couldn't come to the airport.

- Were you keeping Seoul safe? - Of course.

- Mom, happy anniversary. - Oh, my goodness.

Baby's breath, my favourite. Thank you.

What about mine? Hey, did she get married by herself?

Hurry up and give me mine.

- Wait. I got something for Dad too. - Give it to me.

This is Mom's. This one is Mom's.

I'm going to throw away all your presents.

You're so cheap.

- But wait a minute. - Why?

Why does our daughter's face look so worn out?

- Oh, honestly. - You didn't eat properly, did you?

I left everything in the fridge so you just had to heat it up.

She's on a diet. Goodness.

Mom, what's this spot? I haven't seen it before.

- Didn't you put sunscreen properly? - Oh, really. I'm fine.

I told you you'll ruin your health if you don't eat properly.

- Oh, this won't do. - Can't you see how tanned I am?

It's a good thing you got divorced, Mom.

Your fortune has completely blossomed.

- Mom, what do I do about this? - Gosh, so cheap.

(Se Hee, did you look into my request?)

Ms. Han Gyu Young?

- You seem a lot like your mom. - By any chance, my mom...

Did your wife not tell you about us?

No.

She did.

That she left her three children when she got divorced.

- Right? - Yes.

That's a relief.

I was so worried that I might cause trouble...

for my mom's new family, who are living well.

It's a bit bewildering, but what is this all of a sudden...

I'm also curious.

Oh, but how did you get my phone number?

- You've been in contact with her? - Mom...

No, I haven't been in contact with your wife.

I don't know her number either.

I got your phone number through my friend's maternal uncle.

That my mom and you remarried...

I heard about it a long time ago through that friend.

Is that so?

I'll get straight to the point.

After you hear me out, if you think I'm some kind of punk,

you can just get up and leave.

Okay.

Please, lend me some money.

(Student ID, Han Gyu Young, School of Medicine)

As you can see, the university you graduated from...

I'm currently attending its medical school.

I completely bombed my midterms this time,

so I lost my entire scholarship.

So now I'm at a loss for next semester's tuition,

and if you lend it to me, I promise I'll pay you back with interest.

Text me your account number.

I'll send you the tuition money.

And you don't need to pay it back.

If you're my wife's daughter, you're like a child to me too.

Right.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

(Chairman Jang Hoon Tae, Daehan Bank)

Yes. I'll send it right away.

This one is Mom's.

I told you you'll ruin your health if you don't eat properly.

But on second thought,

I don't think I need to be so deferential.

What?

Whatever the circumstances, my older sister,

younger brother, and I lost our mother,

while thanks to that,

your daughter gained a mother.

Compensation money...

I'll think of it as consolation money and use it well.

Excuse me.

Don't you want to see your mom?

No.

Not really.

I see.

That you met me or gave me money...

I'd rather you didn't feel the need to mention it.

Well then.

Excuse me.

Are you looking for someone?

Yes.

- You should go inside to look. - No, it's okay.

By any chance, to eat...

I didn't come here for that.

I'll just stand here for a bit and then leave.

Wait a moment. Don't go anywhere, stay right here.

Excuse me.

This is my lunchbox. Please have it.

I have indigestion from what I ate for lunch.

(Han Gyu Rim)

No, it's fine. It's just that...

It's okay, please eat.

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- What is it? - Happy birthday, dear

- Happy birthday, dear - How can someone be so lovely?

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

She's kind and cute,

and if she's pretty too, it's just not fair.

Did you get scammed or something?

You should be inside. Why are you standing out here?

Mu Jin.

- What? - Han Gyu Rim.

- What about Han Gyu Rim? - Do you know Han Gyu Rim?

- There's a Han Gyu Rim I know. Why? - That Han Gyu Rim's there, right?

Why?

- Thank you. - Are you crazy? What's with you?

Mu Jin, that Han Gyu Rim...

Introduce me to her.

Which Han Gyu Rim?

What? Which Han Gyu Rim?

The one right over there, the one you know.

I'll bring you a glass of wine, orange juice, and bread.

What did that Han Gyu Rim do to you?

She gave me my daily bread.

- What are you talking about? - So...

I fell for her at first sight.

- Are you starving or something? - Please introduce me.

No.

- No? Why not? - I just don't want to.

But why not?

What's that?

- Did Han Gyu Rim give you this? - Yes.

- Let me see. - What? Freeze.

Be quiet and come inside.

What?

Why aren't you going inside?

Gyu Rim.

Let's have a drink.

With a high schooler?

Did something happen to you?

Here.

I think I'm going to drop out.

They say it's all my fault.

They say if I just admit I was wrong,

reflect on it, and apologise, they'll let it go,

but I don't want to do that.

Why should I have to do that?

Instead of that,

let's fight them.

I'll fight with you.

What're you going to show up at school...

with a baseball bat?

I should have just passed by.

Everyone else pretended not to see, so who was I to interfere?

I regret it.

I regret it so, so much.

Don't regret it.

I told you that you did the right thing.

The one who's bad is that...

You're about to graduate if you just endure a little longer.

It's not like I'm giving up on everything.

Even if I quit school, I'll study on my own...

and definitely take the GED. I'll go to college too, Gyu Rim.

Just a little...

Let's think about it a little more, Gyu Oh.

What more is there to think about?

The guy who wants to drop out...

because he can't handle one little thing...

and the person who pats him on the back...

instead of trying to stop him.

Hey, Han Gyu Oh.

If you quit school now, you'll be a middle school grad.

Han Gyu Rim, a high school grad. Han Gyu Oh, a middle school grad.

What's the point of me going to med school,

grad school, and even getting a doctorate?

You guys are just dragging down the average.

These days, people ask about your father,

- your siblings, your whole family. - Hey.

Is that all you can think about right now, yourself?

If I don't think about myself, who will?

You should know that it's because I'm holding on this much...

that you guys aren't completely ignored.

Gosh, I wish I could just throw you away...

somewhere no one would see.

Is that really the only way you can talk...

as an older sister? Really?

You little...

It's not like I'm wrong. What?

You don't even have 10,000 dollars.

Did you leave 10,000 dollars here?

I've been letting it slide, but you're really...

- Hey. Let go of this. - What's wrong with you? Stop it.

- Let go of this. - Let go. You let go.

- I said, you let go. - You let go.

- What's wrong? Stop it. - Hey, let go.

- I told you to let go. - Hey, Han Gyu Young, you let go.

- Let go. - Hey.

- You let go. - Don't.

- Han Gyu Young, you let go. - You let go.

- Han Gyu Young, you let go. - I told you to let go. You let go.

- You started it. - This family is a real mess.

- Sisters should get along. - Let go of her hand right now.

What do you think you're doing? You're sisters.

This is why people say you're children...

without a mother or father, and point fingers at you.

Move.

How dare they, when their father is speaking.

You twins over there.

You see your father and you don't even greet him?

Seriously?

Gosh.

- When did you get here? - How did you raise the children...

for all of them to turn out like this?

What, am I some beggar who came to this house to freeload?

It's been a very long time since you've been home.

With the house a mess, do you think I'd want to come home?

Considering how you abandoned us,

we're growing up and living quite well.

Abandoned you?

Do you think I stayed away from home to have fun?

I was preparing the business, raising investment funds,

holding briefings, and visiting factories.

Gosh, I was trying to give you a life of luxury,

and you don't even know how busy your father is.

Are you dating again?

My gosh.

- When did this even... - After all that, not tired of it?

This time is different.

Ms. Jo is the real deal. If the business goes well this time,

I'm going to bring her in as your mother.

A house needs a woman, and children need a mother.

Oh my, the state of this house.

What is this mess, really?

Gosh.

Yes.

Good afternoon.

It is a good afternoon.

Three in a row.

Indeed.

Did you drink cocoa?

Is something wrong?

No.

By the way, where in this neighbourhood do you live?

I don't think I've ever seen you around.

Well...

Over there, on the inside...

Yes.

Look here, miss.

- Oh my. - Who are you?

My mom collapsed at the bus stop.

That's right. Is the grandmother okay?

Yes, thanks to you, she even ate short ribs this morning...

- and she's much better. - But what brings you here?

Because you, Gyu Rim, just vanished like a fairy,

I had a really hard time finding you.

I felt this from the first time I saw you,

but I think you, Gyu Rim...

were an angel who came down from the heavens.

You were so dazzling that even now,

I can't seem to open my eyes properly...

If your eyes are bothering you, you should go to an eye doctor.

- And you are? - He's a coworker of mine.

Oh, is that so?

I have something urgent to tell Gyu Rim,

so could you please give us a moment?

We're late right now,

so I think we should get inside quickly.

I'm glad to hear your grandmother is okay.

- Well, goodbye. - Oh, wait. What time do you finish?

I'd like to wait and treat you to a meal.

No, it's okay. I'll consider it eaten.

Get home safe.

No, my mom told me to be sure to treat you to a meal...

and even bring back the receipt. I'll be waiting.

Okay?

We have a staff dinner today. Don't wait, just go on home.

A staff dinner?

Oh, man. I was supposed to treat you today.

My gosh...

Are you that nice and kind to everyone?

Pardon?

If you're that nice and kind to everyone,

how do you act toward the person you really like?

I don't understand what you're saying.

I mean, it's not like you're dating everyone in the world,

so you should make a distinction.

So the person who likes you doesn't get jealous.

So, could you please say it in a way I can understand?

Can't you just be nice to me?

What?

Well...

I know you're just being nice, Gyu Rim.

Helping the grandmother and all that is good,

but you give away your whole lunchbox...

because someone looks hungry,

you just smile at people for no reason,

and you respond to all sorts of nonsense.

Can't you not do that?

Can't I be the only man that Gyu Rim is nice to and takes care of?

I don't know what you mean by that...

Gosh, this woman really doesn't get it.

Right now,

I'm confessing to you.

Asking you to look at me, and only me.

I'm saying I think I like you, Gyu Rim.

Got it?

(Love on the Menu)

- There's a woman I like. - Mu Jin.

If you just trust me, Mother, I won't give up on her.

To be frank, what her parents do,

what her job is, what her siblings do,

isn't it natural for the Chairman...

to weigh and measure those things precisely?

- Why do I live like this? - You're the eldest daughter.

You're selfless and considerate with a kind heart, as the eldest.

I'm getting married.

Han Gyu Young. What would happen...

if I started living like you from now on?

Is it true that the part-timer and Mu Jin are dating?

I'm saying that I'm starting to have feelings for you, Mu Jin.
