Episode 16

Mom.

I'm sorry. For hitting you.

I couldn't help...

But you can't do this.

Has it been even a day or two since Geum Ran got here?

How can you tell her to get out when she's barely unpacked?

Whether you allow it or not, Geum Ran is my daughter and dad's daughter.

This house, this is Geum Ran's house.

Let's make things clear.

They say blood is frightening and just like how you hurt and feel for your real mother,

I feel the same way about Geum Ran.

Just like how you got mad at Geum Ran for abandoning your real parents,

I get mad when you treat Geum Ran poorly.

I'm begging you. Don't treat Geum Ran poorly.

What's going on? Huh? What's wrong?

What happened?

Did you fight with Jung Won?

Why?

There must be a reason.

Jung Won's not the type to be stubborn for no reason.

She must feel victimized by Geum Ran.

All her claws are drawn.

Geum Ran just got here and Jung Won said...

That she's scary, hated her, and gave her goosebumps.

She stabbed her heart saying that she abandoned her real mom.

Jung Won really said that?

Yes. I got so mad while listening that I couldn't help but slap her.

What? You slapped her face?

Go upstairs.

She's probably shocked because it's the first time she's ever been hit.

I didn't even hit her when she was young.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I caused this chaos as soon as I got here.

No. Why is it your fault?

Jung Won is just brooding right now.

It's because I was rushed.

I felt rushed so I didn't give Jung Won enough time.

So just accept Jung Won and wait.

Yes. I'll try harder.

Yes. Thank you.

I'll trust you.

Yes.

Let's talk. I'm coming in.

What's going on? What a mess.

Whose side am I supposed to choose?

Uncle. Which side are you on?

As an uncle, should I really pick a side in a children's fight?

Okay don't pick sides but honestly, who do you feel for more?

They're both my nieces.

All three of you are the same to me.

The older you get, the more you lie uncle.

When I first saw you, you were an innocent young child who only spoke the truth.

They say better the devil you know than the devil you don't.

You're for Jung Won!

Then I should be on Geum Ran's side to make it fair.

I said, better the devil you know than the devil you don't!

Newer is better. Young child! What?

Why don't we get some fresh air?

Let's go to Choonchun and eat buckwheat noodles.

Jung Won, for me and mom...

Yes. For you and mom, I'm your daughter and she's your daughter too.

We're both your children.

But that's not what you believe, that's just what you want to believe.

Can I ask a childish question?

If she and I were drowning, who would you save first?

Is it me? Or her?

Or are you going to answer,

"You swim well and Geum Ran can't so I'll save Geum Ran first then save you."

No matter how well I swim,

the moment you swim to her my body will convulse,

I won't be able to breathe and I'll sink before you come to save me.

What is making you so nervous?

Do you really feel victimized by Geum Ran?

Yes! I'm nervous!

I'm nervous about her, I sense a gloomy omen, I'm scared of her and I dread her!

What?

I don't know why I'm like this either.

I just am!

I just feel like she's going to shake up my whole life!

Like she's going to steal everything from me!

When I see her I get nervous and sensitive!

What a dilemma.

Living in one house will be torture...

I won't ever leave dad!

I can't ever leave this house.

The moment I leave this house

I'm acknowledging that I'm not your daughter.

So don't tell me to leave!

I'm going to protect it.

I'm going to protect my life too!

I'm not going to get anything stolen by her!

Jung Won!

Forget it!

Everyone has a problem during this housing crisis, how can you keep asking me to be lenient?

Can't we change it to rent?

We looked around but there really isn't anywhere for us to go with the money we have.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I need to get that 60 000 000 and pay for my son's wedding!

Even if we leave, we have no home ahjummeoni!

- We need to get a house in order to leave. - I don't care!

They need to move in on the 20th because of the contract so move out by then.

Ahjummeoni! What do you mean the 20th?

Are you telling us to live on the streets with our child?

It's hard for me too because of my son's wedding date.

Just know that I'm going to go sign the contract now.

What do we do?

Geum Ran said to give this to you.

It looks like a check. What's this?

It must be her severance pay.

What? Severance pay?

One, two, three.

It's 30 000 000 won!

Give it back to her, we can't take it.

Take it. This isn't money, it's Geum Ran's feelings, mother.

I said I can't accept those feelings!

Give it back.

Don't say a word and give it back to her.

No, don't just think of it like that honey.

Geum Ran is sitting on a stash of gold now.

This is an insane amount for us but this measly 30 000 000 won is nothing to her now.

She gave it to us because she can so let's just accept it honey, okay?

Are you a father? Are you human?

Measly 30 thousand? Nothing?

This isn't money, it's our Geum Ran's youth!

This isn't money, it's our Geum Ran's blood and tears and the past ten years!

So that's why she gave it to you.

There's no chance so don't even look at it!

Don't even think about touching this money!

Hold onto it. Give it back to her for me.

You...

Long time no see, Mr. Hwang Nam Bong.

Oh my, your eyebrows grew back nice and thick!

It's time for a shave.

Don't you think so you rotten bastard?

What are you doing?

I don't know what's going on but why don't you take your shoes off first.

Who is this fearless new face?

Who are you?

I'm a boarding student.

Oh is that so?

Then why doesn't the boarding student back off so I can talk to the owner, punk?

Didn't you hear me tell you to take your shoes off?

I'm telling you to go outside and take your shoes off!

Why you little..

Hyungnim! Look at this!

What it is?

30 000 000 won?

Hwang Nam Bong!

If you even get a drop of money you should have brought it to me!

Must I really personally skip into your living room?

It's not my money! Give it back!

It's really not my money! Really!

That's not my business, Ahjussi, it's your business.

If you don't bring me the rest of the money in one week,

I'll be so pissed that I might do something to your pretty daughters.

I'll take this today and quietly leave.

Let's talk more in one week. Goodbye!

Hey!

Give it back! Give that money back!

Hurry up! I said give back the check!

You crazy ahjumma!

Move before I shove you! Move!

I'll pay it back!

Maybe not all but what I can.

I'll sell this house and restaurant so please give that money back.

Not that money!

It's not money to use like this.

It's not money that can just go to you.

Yes! I'll give you the house deed so give back the check and take the deed.

Let's do that.

It's old but it'll go for at least 200 billion won.

Go get the house deed.

You don't need to do that mother!

You'll see on the promissory note that money that is lent

even when it's known that it will be used for gambling lacks obligation to be repaid.

How dare you fearlessly run your mouth?

According to civil law 103 juristic act of social order,

juristic acts with contract content that violates social order such as moral custom is invalid!

What? What?

Debt collection law article 9 section 5!

For those who attempt to claim a debt from a debtor or related persons and

cause fear or anxiety by detrimentally affecting the peace of the debtor's

personal or professional life, they can be charged up to three years imprisonment

or 300 000 000 won in fines!

I'm a witness and Geum Ran is a witness!

We have the hospital documents as proof too!

So what? So what are you going to do?

We're going to take it to court!

We'll properly examine things in the confines of the law.

If there's a debt to be paid we will repay exactly that much.

Oh! I know starting January of 2009, a signature is mandatory.

You definitely got his signature instead of a stamp on the promissory note, right?

Hit me all you want or return the check and leave quietly.

We'll give you an answer in the promised week.

It's me. Can I come in?

Yes, yes, yes! Come in.

Please sit.

You sit too.

You were reading.

What book is it?

What? Ah yes.

You're interested in publishing?

Yes, I have been for a while.

Really?

I had pretty much given up because I didn't have the time or money.

Mother told me to think about what I wanted to do and when I did,

I realized I had a dream and goal.

I started selling books at 19 but...

...I always wanted to be someone who made books, not sold them.

You know how the front or back of the book has the name of the person who made it?

My dream and wish is seeing my name printed there.

I enrolled in a publishing school.

I work with a publisher two times a week.

Really? Good job.

For publishing, I'm around and Jung Won is around.

You don't have to go to a publishing school to find people to help, so work hard.

Excuse me, father.

It's okay so say whatever you want.

Everyone here is your family, dad, and mom.

Let me work at your publishing company.

I won't be picky and I'll do my best with anything.

I want to learn everything from the bottom.

Can't I?

It's not that you can't.

I gave Editor Song all human resources power so I can ask him

but Editor Song will make the final decision.

What? Editor Song?

It's Jung Won's right?

Yes. She slept through breakfast and missed lunch because of what happened.

She didn't eat anything all day.

Give it to me. I'll bring it to her.

You?

To make up.

I'll try apologizing first and tell her I'm sorry.

Okay.

Okay. here.

I'm coming in.

Are you going out?

Mother's worried that you didn't eat anything today.

Eat this.

I'm sorry. I was too harsh earlier.

I know I shouldn't but I keep getting mad at you.

Seeing you makes me angry.

So my words come out harsher than I really feel.

Than you feel?

Let's try to get along.

Like you said, I think our peace is this home's peace.

Eat it before you go.

[*List of writers and their traits*]

She's not going to eat it?

No, she just went out.

Really? Here I'll take it.

No. I'll eat it mother.

I'm hungry too.

Okay then.

Then I'll take this to my room.

Geum Ran!

Yes mother.

Eat then let's go out too.

Let's get what you need for now.

Yes.

Get ready.

Yes.

Hello.

Hello, you're here?

It hasn't been long since you did you hair, would you like it blow dried?

Not me, my child.

Yes, hello!

Your future daughter-in-law?

Is your son getting married?

She's my daughter. My daughter.

What? You had another daughter besides Jung Won?

Yes. She's so precious that I kept her hidden the whole time.

Jung Won is here too.

The manager tried to stop her but she insisted on a cut so she's cutting it very short right now.

Jung Won is here?

Yes.

Please give me your coat and bag.

What?

Don't worry.

We'll seat you next to Jung Won.

Oh Madam!

You're getting a cut?

We came to do Geum Ran's hair.

Why did she suddenly quit the bookstore after ten years?

How would I know that?

You're closest with her.

You didn't hear anything?

She just said she was going into publishing.

What? Why publishing?

Why suddenly publishing?

I said I don't know!

You're bothering me. Please go now.

What is this? This sudden surprise?

What would she do at a publishing company?

Does she think she'll become like Han Jung Won if she does publishing?

How ridiculous!

That brat, she should have quietly stayed at the bookstore!

[Unknown Caller]

[Yoon Seung Jae]

What are you staring?

I think you have a call.

Your hair was pretty, why did you cut it?

Are you saying this looks bad?

You're not much different.

You act happy, nice, cool and then...

You put words in my mouth and cut me down.

You said no one's not like that.

There are merely situations.

You said not for you.

You said you were you in any situation.

I overestimated myself.

Like you said I'm not much different and I was pretending my whole life.

I'm realizing every moment of everyday

what kind of person I am so I'm not going to act nice or cool.

I should live as I am without faking it or pretending. Right?

[I have something I need to say. Let's meet today! Yoon Seung Jae]

You borrowed money multiple times but this is the only promissory note?

Yeah.

They just lumped it together according to their calculations, those bastards.

There's no signature,

the loan sharks could have managed to get the stamp,

and there's no detailed breakdown of the debt so I don't think it has any legal power.

Then you're saying I don't have to pay all this money back?

Yes.

If you have proof or a witness who saw that you borrowed it from a casino,

I think you just have to pay the first two loans and interest.

For when they hurt Geum Ran, we have the hospital bill and hiker who discovered her.

We even have the clip from the bookstore parking lot and can press charges

so I think we can make a deal asking to lower the amount.

Law student, you! Hey man!

Thanks! Thanks so much!

Yes, yes, yes!

People like you need to be prosecutors and lawyers.

You man, you have to pass the exam, okay?

You need to pass for people like us.

Got it?

It feels so relieving!

Thanks! Thanks so much!

Our Dae Bum!

My children?

Jung Won finished first and left an hour ago.

Your other daughter is just finishing now.

Geum Ran.

How is it?

I don't look like me, right?

It's pretty.

You look elegant and much more lively.

I like it, don't you?

No, it's just different.

You'll get used to it.

Put your coat on.

Let's go to the mall.

Yes.

- How much? - One moment.

With the 20% VIP discount, that's 450,000 won.

Here.

Please sign.

Jung Won, your hair.

You look like a totally different person.

Good.

I changed it because I didn't like myself, being myself.

What?

Tell me what you wanted to say.

I've become determined, Jung Won!

About what?

To take care of your child too.

What?

If you just accept me, I will be a really good dad to your child.

Am I just any dad?

In two years, I'll be a prosecutor dad.

In 10 years, I'll be a chief prosecutor dad.

In 20 years, I'll be the Attorney General dad.

Stop playing hard to get and marry me.

We didn't forget anything right?

Why didn't you just move the entire luxury department of the mall?

How much did you spend?

It's heavy. Take it to Geum Ran's room.

You must be happy.

I'm happy.

Let's go. You did your hair?

Yes. It doesn't suit me, right?

It's awkwardly sexy.

What?

Seriously!

Oppa.

Why?

I just tried calling you.

You like me that much already?

More than liking you, I like having a brother.

So far.

I don't know why you keep confidently hitting on me

but your qualifications don't appeal to me at all.

And soon my qualifications won't appeal to you at all either.

You're more than enough for me now.

So what if you're a single mom?

I said I'll be accommodating.

Don't you have a lot of women with good qualifications?

Why are you doing this when I don't like you?

They have good qualifications but they're all ugly.

They think they're plastic surgery beauties but they're just lumpy plastic people.

You're the only woman who's pretty and smart with good qualifications.

Would you like to get a last drink with me?

Last drink?

I'll give you a great bit of information that will make you faint.

But I can't tell you when I'm sober because it hurts my pride.

Let's go.

[Editor Song Seung Joon]

Hello?

Yes this is Song Seung Joon.

Can you talk?

Yes, I can.

You must be outside. It sounds like it.

I'm at my mother's restaurant.

Ah yes. She doesn't even rest on a Sunday.

Is there something I can help you with?

Yes. There's something I would like for you to help me with.

What is it?

I want to tell you in person.

Please lend me some of your time.

Where should we meet?

Come to the restaurant.

To the restaurant?

Yes.

Then I'll leave in 30 minutes.

Yes. Goodbye.

What a stone Buddha.

Welcome!

Editor!

It's early so I thought you weren't here but you are.

Is something wrong? Your face...

Is your mother here?

I think I should apologize to her first.

Yes.

It's nice to meet you again.

The cocky Editor was merely the son of a sausage soup restaurant owner.

You are an average citizen to the bone.

I'll bring my law school students here and boost your sales.

You're still my Jung Won's boss.

Excuse me.

Yes, that's 35,000 won.

I made a huge mistake last time.

I'm sorry mother.

Okay.

I'll take your apology but I can't take that fruit basket or you calling me mother.

What? Then what should I call you?

Just call me ahjummeoni!

Why am I your mother?

That's because you're our Editor's mother...

I said I don't like it!

Don't call me mother again! Got it?

Yes m... My goodness.

Please take the fruit m... My goodness.

Ahjummeoni.

It's my heart, please?

What do you mean it's your heart or fruit?

It's showing off money.

You don't even know how to save money.

It's just dressed up and fancy, what is there to eat?

You said it's your heart?

The way it looks is just like you, this fruit basket!

Go out now! You're being bothersome.

Anyways, it feels totally awesome to be drinking alone with you like this.

The soju tastes like honey!

How did you start dating Hwang Geum Ran?

I ate at her restaurant a lot.

Her mother has a potty mouth but her food is amazing.

When I went one day, she was serving.

She was twenty-five then and really pretty.

Really popular among the students too.

Cold and distant, you could say she was like an ice flower.

No matter how hard I tried, the girl wouldn't look twice at me.

She liked someone else instead of me.

Kang Dae Bum, this guy who was at the study dorm with me.

She was falling for a guy two years younger than her.

So it stirred up my competitive nature.

Just wait and see!

Let's see if I get you or not!

How did you get chosen?

I studied to death!

Because all I have are my brains.

I only slept three hours a day. For three years.

After I passed the first round, then she acknowledged me and even went to movies with me.

The guy she liked failed the first round.

That's how it started.

It was love for me but in the beginning it wasn't love for her.

Anyways, Geum Ran was really pretty back then.

You know Kang Dae Bum?

He's really tall...

Here you go!

Goodbye!

So I feel like..

You're here?

Yes. But those two people...

If you're uncomfortable, should we go outside?

No. I'm not uncomfortable about anything and I want to show that man that I'm fine.

Would you like to eat something?

No. I just ate dinner.

I thought you might be hungry.

Share it with the restaurant people.

Thank you. Then let's have some tea.

Stay seated. I'll go make it.

It's nice to meet you.

My name is Hwang Geum Ran.

I see. Sit.

Is she your guest?

Yes. Here. It's still warm.

Go eat it with aunt.

My goodness, it's fish bread.

I thought you might be hungry so I brought it but I'm not sure how it tastes.

I'll eat it well thanks to your kind heart so don't worry!

Go ahead and talk.

What is it that you would like me to help you with?

I told father that I want to work at the Forest of Wisdom

and he said that you have the power to human resources.

That I need your permission.

Please hire me.

I really want to try publishing.

Whether it's through the President or me, I don't take pulled connections.

What?

If you submit an application and proposal, I will judge it objectively.

If you pass, then I will hire you.

I think you're drunk, shall we go now?

No! I didn't hear the information that is going to making me faint,

what are you saying Jung Won?

I'm going to go to the bathroom, Jung Won.

I'm empty out and then I'll faint!

Application and proposal..

You? You...

Hey you... Hwang Geum Ran!

What are you doing here?

Are you my stalker?

You hid and followed me, right?

Be quiet. This is a business.

Figures that the student restaurant owner's daughter

would know the sausage soup restaurant owner's son!

But what are you two doing?

You're not eating or drinking, what are you two doing?

Are you dating?

Good luck citizens!

Don't act like you know me and just go.

You quit the bookstore? Publishing?

Are you a Han Jung Won copycat?

You think if you go to a publishing company, Hwang Geum Ran can become Han Jung Won?

When your births, environments, and backgrounds are different?

You know what happens when a crow tries to walk like a stork?

You don't know?

If you don't, I'll show you!

These legs, these legs...

Your legs will split like this!

Get up!

He's my guest so I'll take him out.

Seung Jae, let's go.

Jung Won! My pretty Jung Won! Jung Won!

Jung Won, let's go to round two, round two.

Shall we go dance?

Or a karaoke? Okay, karaoke!

I'll send him off in a cab so you go home!

You don't need to do that.

You have a guest.

I'll send him off in a cab so leave him and go in.

She's probably waiting.

I'll do it! I said I'll do it!

I said I'll do it, why do you keep doing this?

Don't! I said don't!

If I say don't, then just don't!

This isn't the office.

Please distinguish between personal and professional life!

Please do.

Jung Won. Where's Jung Won?

Why aren't you leaving?

I'm deciding whether to call a driver or sober up and drive.

Why?

Do I need your permission for that too?

Why don't you give me a command?

I'll drive! Where is your car?

Are you deaf? I asked where you parked!

At First Parking Lot.

Let's go.

Why aren't you getting in?

Do you have your license?

Yes. I do but I don't really drive. Happy?

You don't have to go to Geum Ran?

Go. I'll find my way back.

Yes, Editor!

When your application and proposal is ready, come to the publishing office.

I'll give you more details then.

I don't think I can go to the restaurant so don't wait.

Application? Proposal?

What do you mean application?

She said she wants to work at our company.

So you're going to let her?

If she passes the interview.

Interview? And who's going to judge that?

You and I.

You and I judge Hwang Geum Ran?

Yes.

You live in this neighborhood?

Yes.

Thank you.

If you need a drinking buddy, call me instead of that man.

Drinking buddy?

Let's take out the drinking part.

A friend?

Yes.

Editor.

Yes?!

Do you know what Native Americans call friends?

I don't know.

One who carries my sadness on their back.

Can you carry my sadness on your back?

I'll try it.

Let's do it.

Geum Ran.

It's okay.

I wanted to thank you for giving birth to me.

I don't know if it'll suit your tastes.

My favorite seaweed soup!

It's a bit bland, mom.

Don't eat it. Don't eat it if it's bland!

I don't care if you're against it but don't hinder me.

Where is it? Did I leave it in the office?

Did you happen to see my diary?

Proposal judging...

Jung Won, are you judging too?

Editor Song and you decide?

I don't think I can pass her.
