(Episode 43)

I thought all you have is physical strength.

Give it to me. You're so mean.

You don't like being called strong?

It's a compliment.

Fine. Then let's fairly carry one each.

Okay.

But I...

What do you think you're doing?

What did...

I just see right now?

Young Ji.

What's going on between you two?

Ms. Kim.

The thing is...

Go inside.

Sul Ak.

Explain it to me.

Am I overreacting?

Are you sure you two are stepmother and son?

No, I mean are you two a normal stepmother and son?

Don't startle me, and please say something.

Did she marry your father?

She did.

Young Ji.

There are things I can't tell you.

Of course, you can't dare tell me.

I saw you guys laughing together.

You guys didn't laugh because it was funny.

Seeing each other brought a smile to your faces.

You guys smiled because you like each other.

It's disgusting.

It's not what you think.

I'll take you home.

Don't pretend to be nice.

How did it go?

Ms. Kim was quite startled, right?

I had to trip over at that moment.

Don't worry about it.

We'll bump into her at work all the time,

so how can I not worry?

We had to go through it anyway.

She probably was quite alarmed.

Why are you guys so serious?

Well, it's nothing.

I'll go inside.

Gosh.

Those two are making me feel strangely offended.

(Buruna Noodles)

I heard Chef Cha is back.

Yes, it's been a few days.

That's good to hear.

You should leave him in charge of the kitchen...

and go for a walk to exercise.

It'd be hard to go outside when it gets hot.

I'll take him out.

They say you'd cure most of your illnesses as long as you walk.

Ga On.

Don't skip breakfast from now on. Okay?

They say breakfast is better than medicine.

I feel sleepy when I have breakfast though.

All right.

By the way, that lawyer said she'll drop by.

How come I don't hear any news about her?

What lawyer?

Her name is Young Ji.

She said she used to come over when Sul Ak was in college.

Oh, you mean Young Ji.

She's cute and has a cool personality.

It's her, right? Has she become a lawyer?

I miss her too.

Right.

Ga On, don't you want a mother too?

No, I don't want a mom.

But I wish Dad has a wife.

Dad should get married too.

Is that so?

I guess you're all grown up now.

You should ask her to come over.

I'll pretend I'm not here and stay outside.

Let's do that when you become closer to the family members.

Ga On, if you're done, get ready. I'll drop you off.

Okay.

This is Dad's supplements.

I'll make sure he has it, but if I forget,

you should give it to him.

Oh, right.

There's something here.

Isn't the housekeeper coming in today?

Pardon?

Why are you working in the kitchen?

Oh, she'll come in twice a week from now on.

She said her wrists hurt.

So I told her to do that since I'm here too.

You're going to ask me for money, aren't you?

I wouldn't mind if you give me some.

Does your family still expect money from you?

It's not like that.

Come here for a second.

Geum Gang?

Yes.

What he's doing is playing with money.

Sucking the blood of people who are poor.

Still, I know how it is because I've worked at a market.

When you're in need of quick cash,

poor people have nowhere to get money from...

except for places like that.

It's not like the bank lets anyone borrow money.

As long as the interest is good, it's not a bad job.

Why did he have to play with interest?

I can't stop me when he's trying to feed three kids.

I'll find out about that place in time.

The way I see it, that cafe is more of a white elephant.

I gave it to her because she kept whining.

I'm going to go there today.

Okay.

What is it?

There is nothing going on between you and Sul Ak, right?

What do you mean?

Stop talking nonsense.

You guys look at each other weirdly.

We're not!

I have someone in mind already!

What? You do?

Yes.

It's someone who stands by Director Boo.

I was going to make it work with him after this business.

Is he a good fellow?

Of course.

Unlike that jerk Sul Ak...

I mean, unlike your son,

he's warmhearted, sweet, and handsome.

Sul Ak is handsome too as he takes after me.

Oh, I'm sure.

I'll be going now.

Geez.

There's no way Sul Ak has feelings for a tomboy like her.

That startled me.

I'm sorry, Mr. Lee.

Good shot!

Why don't you have a cup of coffee here?

I'm getting nice shots in a while.

Why did you not show up for such a long time?

I had a lot of business at home and everything.

By the way, Ae Ri,

did you make plans for your children's vacation?

I thought about it roughly,

but things have been too hectic lately.

I'm going to Vancouver with Hye In for a month.

Would you like to join us?

To Vancouver?

I heard that place is great to play golf.

Didn't you say your brother lives in Sydney?

You can go there then.

Why don't you go to the UK?

London is a great place and the British accent is classy.

A cup of water.

I think Hugh Grant's accent is sexy.

It's too expensive there.

So are you going to London?

Well, I need to discuss this with Geum Gang.

Oh, my.

It must've been hard to get as it's a limited edition.

Is it pretty?

Yes. It's fantastic.

Did you get it during a trip?

From the internet.

Sorry?

I bought a fake one that looks real through social media.

That's how I can bring it when I work out.

Oh, my. It looks so good.

You can carry it around casually. Gosh.

Do you want me to tell you the address?

But you'll need to keep it a secret between the two of us.

Of course.

What's the address?

Look here. If you go all the way up...

Oh, my.

It's this one.

Oh, my. Such an adorable thing.

Is the owner out?

She said she'll be back in the afternoon.

She must be slacking off.

May I help you?

Oh, it's nothing.

I guess the business isn't doing well.

There aren't many customers either.

How many drinks have you sold today?

Why would you ask me that?

I'm preparing to open a cafe, so I was doing market research.

After paying for a part-timer, electricity, and water bills,

you must be left with barely anything.

Is there a big difference between the peak and off-season sales?

I can't tell you about such things.

Then how much are the sales here?

Give it to me. I'll wipe it.

You can't wipe carelessly like this.

People come to drink coffee to feel good,

so they won't come if it's not clean.

Hello.

Have you been to somewhere?

What are you doing here holding that?

You must've had some business.

Your mother must be looking after your children.

I have a business to take care of as I have three daughters.

I'm fairly busy.

I'm sure you are.

But still, I think you should care more about the cafe.

You can't keep this big place empty just to sell coffee and drinks.

Who's keeping it empty?

It's only because this is not a rush hour.

We are busy just selling coffee on a regular day.

How about getting baking lessons?

I heard it can leave a good margin.

Do you know how arduous that is?

I will take care of it.

Or since there are many offices nearby,

how about adding gimbap or riceballs in the morning?

Oh, geez.

Why would you sell gimbap or riceballs in a cafe?

This is absurd.

That's what I'm saying.

They say you need to break the stereotype to be successful.

It's because I especially care...

for you and your husband.

I will come often, Daughter-in-law.

What's up with her?

It's so frustrating! Geez. My clothes.

How annoying!

- She's so annoying. - What?

What is it now?

It's that woman.

She just came over to the cafe.

My goodness. Did she really go there?

What did she say?

My gosh.

She asked about the rent cost, sales,

and that it must leave me with nothing after paying the expenses.

Learn how to bake. Sell gimbap.

She was being so inquisitive, then left.

Oh, my goodness.

It's as if she's a prosecutor on an audit.

She'd talked about the lawsuit for an undutiful child before.

I'm sure she just came to scare me.

She must've just stopped by as she was curious.

What could she do to the cafe?

She talked to me as if she was the owner.

- What is it about? - You startled me.

What brings you here, Han Ra?

Uncle came to pick me up from school.

The kids told me to stay for another night.

What do you want to play today?

I only have an hour because of my homework.

You're so good at telling jokes.

Let's go. I'll help you with your homework.

Do you have some snacks?

Tiramisu, mango sorbet, or egg tart.

Anything is fine with me.

Well, we have a watermelon and sweet red bean buns.

Sweet red bean bun.

Thank you. Let's go, Tae Hee.

Let's finish the homework quickly. Okay?

Okay.

Mr. Boo's sons are not the finest in my eyes too.

Geez. It gives me a headache.

- Please keep the spices full. - Yes.

I'm sorry for being late.

We should prepare for the dinner session.

It may be better for you not to come to the restaurant in this case.

Pardon?

This is also an office and has office hours.

If you go in and out freely,

it may make the employees dispirited and affect the atmosphere.

You're right. I see.

I'm sorry. I was running an errand for Mr. Boo.

I'll get prepared.

By the way,

did you say Baek Doo's office is in Heukseok-dong?

Yes, what is it?

I'll come by the office sometime.

It's to say hello to the employees and encourage Baek Doo.

Please ask him when it will be a good time.

I'll get ready now.

What's in there that it even has a lock?

What do you think you're touching?

Where do you think you're trying to go into?

I told you to do petty work in the kitchen. How dare you?

I was going to mop it's floor as I did in the kitchen.

Don't ever think about coming near here. Get out!

All right.

I can trust you fairly well,

but I can't let you in the soup room.

Yes?

Director Boo. You may need to cancel the meeting this afternoon.

Why's that?

Ms. Kim Young Ji took a day off.

Okay. I understand.

We'll postpone it to tomorrow for now.

Yes, sir.

Did you see your aunt at Ulleungdo?

Ta-da!

Hey. My aunt is awesome, isn't she?

Good for you.

I wish I had an aunt too.

Don't you have an aunt from your father's side?

No, I don't.

I'm the only girl in the entire family.

Until that woman came.

Really?

Wow. Then you must have received so much love.

Not much.

It was so uncomfortable and suffocating.

No one knows how I feel.

You're the exact opposite of me.

I'm the only boy in the family.

So sometimes, it's a bit of a burden.

What burden?

That I have to restore the family fortunes.

How can a high school student do that?

That's why...

I'm going to remove that label.

What?

Are you going to quit school?

What's the point of graduating? I'm just losing time.

It's better to earn money by working earlier.

Well, that's not a bad idea.

Many people nowadays are high school and college graduates.

No one cares about that kind of diploma.

It's been a while since we were on the same page.

Even so, why are you connecting us right away?

Do you like cold noodles?

Why all of a sudden?

Buruna Noodles is owned by my family.

It's Grandfather's restaurant.

You can come if you want to eat it.

Isn't that the place where there's a long line every day?

Hey, let's go immediately! I haven't eaten noodles in a while.

Not today. I need to get ready for my performance assessment.

Bye.

Hey! We have to go and eat cold noodles!

Reserve two bowls!

You're here.

I didn't know it was a soup room.

Still, you didn't have to yell at me.

Everyone is prohibited there.

All right.

But I'm not sure.

About what?

The taste of the cold noodles.

It's expensive but tastes very bland...

and is neither one thing nor the other.

Don't ask for more.

Who are you to wash my underwear?

But why are you buying my underwear?

I threw it away because I don't need it.

Okay. I get it.

You heard what Grandfather said, right?

If Young Ji comes, make yourself scarce.

I don't want to be embarrassed.

Okay.

I have never admitted you as my family...

and I have no intention of doing so.

Please mind your own business.

All right. I understand how you feel.

I'll be careful in the future.

You're here.

I'm sorry. I'll apologize instead.

She's a kind kid but sometimes goes wild.

Of course.

Everyone at her age goes through puberty.

I bought her underwear,

but she must have felt uncomfortable.

I shouldn't have been nosy.

Sometimes I feel it's my responsibility,

so I have a heavy heart.

It's hard to be a parent.

She grew up kind and pretty.

Thank you.

By the way, is it Ga On's mother...

in that picture?

Sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable.

They just looked so alike.

I hope you don't talk about that anymore.

Here we go.

You should finish up.

Go home first. I don't have much left.

I will finish cleaning up and leave.

Can I do that? Then take it easy.

You worked hard today.

Jung Gwon, I'm going to be late today, so can you take my wife out?

It's now really summer.

- Yes. - Sit.

Wow, there are a lot of stars.

It's been a long time...

since I saw the night sky.

Look at that.

It's sparkling.

It's pretty.

It's like a line from a play.

Do you remember what the male character said?

"Any fallen leaves, flowers, stars that shake or sparkle..."

"means that I'm thinking of you."

I'm jealous.

I'm jealous that she has someone...

who thinks of her in that way.

Unbelievable sights

Indescribable feeling

Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling

Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world

Don't you dare close your eyes

A hundred thousand things to see

Hold your breath, it gets better

I'm like a shooting star, I've come so far

I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world

Every turn, a surprise

With new horizons to pursue

every moment, red-letter

I'll chase them anywhere

There's time to spare

Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world

A whole new world

That's where we'll be

A thrilling chase

A wondrous place

For you and me

(Buruna Noodles)

From being a stepmother, working at the restaurant, and housework...

If I collapse, he needs to know it's a work accident.

What are you doing?

Oh, you're up.

Why are you making toast?

Just make meals for Dad from now on.

This is more convenient for me and Ga On.

Ga On left early today as she has a performance assessment.

Still, I can just lay more cutlery when I make it.

I heard you work at the restaurant too.

Mom. We are not young.

Dad!

Why are you here?

What are you doing in the morning?

I came to my house. What's wrong with that?

You told me to bring the studio rent.

Then you should move out of my room.

How can I move out suddenly?

Is that room assigned to you?

It's your stepmother's room.

Why are couples using separate rooms?

You even registered your marriage.

Isn't it natural for you two to use one room?

What?

I'm right. Or is it like a marriage fraud...

or disguised couple that is legal on paper and benefit each other?

What?

(Brilliant Heritage)

Mr. Boo, let's sleep cozy in one room.

Have we met before?

At that fortune-telling house!

Mrs. Jeong, have you found a part-time worker?

You should make money.

Things looked urgent last time.

There's someone perfect.

I have to get changed!

What are you doing now?

I'm making money. What about you, Sul Ak?

"Sul Ak"?

I'll turn the light off. Sleep well.
