Episode 17

What kind of friend doesn't notice a new hairstyle?

It looks much lighter, right?

It looks much heavier to me.

What?

What else are you going to cut off besides your hair?

Let's share it. The sadness on your back.

Aren't we friends?

Geum Ran.

You should have told me you were coming home.

It was hard grabbing a cab.

We live together now.

I'm sorry.

If I knew, I would have taken you too.

It's okay, you didn't know.

You should go in.

Yes. Well then.

See you tomorrow.

If I had a car, I would have still asked you to come with me.

Was the reason you didn't ask me to come me or the editor?

You fought like crazy and now you're coming in together?

Did you two make up?

I'm sorry about earlier.

I didn't watch what I said so we both became emotional.

Hey! Why aren't you saying anything?

You're the one who didn't watch what you said.

I'm going up.

Look at that attitude!

Just try to cause a scene at home again.

Then I'll be the one to slap you, not Mom.

I'm not saying I'll hit you, I'm just saying.

You did your hair too?

Father and mother must be sleeping.

I should say good night.

Mom took headache medicine and she's sleeping.

I think Father's writing a manuscript so go on in.

Yes. Good night.

Yes. Good night.

It's your first night, sleep well.

Oppa.

What?

Thank you. For treating me warmly.

No, I didn't really� go in.

How come I don't feel anything when Jung Won calls me

but I feel fuzzy inside when she calls me "oppa"?

Is it because we're related by blood?

Was the reason you didn't ask me to come me or the editor?

I should have just clenched my teeth and asked her to come.

What a mistake.

Editor.

Do you know what Native Americans call friends?

One who carries my sadness on their back.

Can you carry my sadness on your back?

I'll try it.

Let's do it.

I said "let's do it"?

I asked an employee to be friends?

[No One Will Protect Us! The Nation's Untold Disasters]

What was that professor's name again?

Oh... diary.

My diary�

It's not here. Where is it?

Did I leave it in the office?

I'm so careless!

I didn't lose it, right?

You're killing me.

Han Jung Won, you're really killing me.

My entire life is in there, what if someone steals it?

Where is it?

Please employ me.

I want to try publishing work.

Whether you're on the chairman's side or my side, I don't take biased hires.

What?

If you submit your resume and application, we will interview you.

If you pass, then I will employ you.

Japan's tsunami in the list of world disasters?

I don't know what else she's talking about but this has potential

and I don't think I've seen similar books at the bookstore.

Yes! I don't know who you are but come in, Uncle!

It's me.

Yeah. What?

I was wondering if I could borrow past proposals.

It doesn't matter if the book has already been published, right?

Can I ask you one thing?

Do you really want to work in publishing?

Yes.

Since when?

Since the first time I met you?

What?

So you're saying you want to work in publishing because of me?

That's not exactly it but I've lived buried in books for ten years

so I figure I can do it too.

That's not right! You shouldn't start your future like that.

You don't have anything you've always wanted to do?

You can start doing what you have always dreamed of.

Something I always wanted to do?

What I always dreamed of?

I don't have anything like that.

When I went to a girl's vocational school in 9th grade

because of my family's financial situation,

I couldn't have any dream or desire.

I needed to get a job and make money as soon as I graduated.

My choice was not about what I wanted,

it was whether the pay was 800,000 or 900,000 won.

I always decided based on 5,000 or 10,000 won.

I always felt most lost when people asked me about my dreams.

Because I've never had a dream.

You only need a proposal?

For now.

I asked Editor Song to employ me at the publishing company

and he said he doesn't take biased hires, that if I applied, he'll interview me.

Here.

Thanks.

It won't be easy to find a topic.

For proposals, the content is more important than the form

so first find a good topic.

I will.

You don't want me in the company, right?

Yeah.

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

Unlike me, you have class and a conscience, right?

They're too much! They're both too much!

Geum Ran unni who ran off without looking back because she got rich parents

and the unni who won't even show her face because we're poor, they're both the same!

So what if they live in a rich home?

They both act like bums! They're both useless!

I don't want to hear it!

I would have gone too. Of course!

I would, why not? Am I crazy?

There's too much of life left to rot away in a house like this!

Watch what you say!

They're not the useless bums, your father and I are.

What a self punching bag.

Yeah, beat yourself up about it.

Beat yourself up over and over again.

You're already defective junk, it's not like a few more holes will make a difference.

I'm going! I need to see for myself!

I need to see for myself how rich and impressive they are

in order to look down on us like this!

You're doing what? Going where?

Just try to secretly go to that house!

I'll kick you out!

I'll kick you out, I'll kick your dad out,

I'll kick everyone, yes, everyone out and live by myself!

I will!

Okay! I'll leave, I said I'll leave!

You hate seeing me and being with me that much?

You hate me being in this house that much?

I know! I know it's all because of me!

I know I'm like a bum!

This is Father's spoon

and this is Mother's spoon, right, Ahjummoni?

Yes.

This is Uncle's,

this is Oppa's, this...

I'll serve the rice and soup. Put out the side dishes.

Thanks.

Geum Ran!

What are you doing here?

Did you sleep well?

Yes. You must be tired, why didn't you sleep more?

Geum Ran made the seaweed soup too, Madam.

What? You made seaweed soup?

It's the first breakfast

and I wanted to thank you for giving birth to me.

I don't know if you'll like it.

It tastes great even before I've tried it.

I'll eat it well.

Yes.

Jung Won, wake up. It's 7:30.

You said you can't be late. Jung Won?

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry! I know you're my mom!

I know you're my mom so�

So� please give me some time.

Why isn't Jung Won coming down? Go get her.

She'll come. Start eating first.

The soup will get cold.

She got up at the break of dawn to make it for us.

- Let's eat. - Yes.

- Thank you. - Yes.

So these people are my real family?

Good morning!

Hey, man! Why did you cut your hair without my permission?

Why? It's weird?

Regardless of whether or not it's weird,

they say your parents gave you your body, fur and skin,

how could you cut it all off without even mentioning it to me?

Did I say it wrong?

No, well, it's body, hair and skin, Uncle.

Really?

Ah, well, it sounded like it was right.

Anyway, it means that you can't just cut off the hair that your parents gave you, right?

Oh, Uncle, come on!

Does that mean every time I shave I need to go to you and ask,

"Uncle, can I shave today?"

For a kid who makes books, you really can't read between the lines.

Lines? What do you want me to read?

Does it seem like your sister cut her hair?

What else?

To me, it seems like she cut her heart.

Oh, Uncle! I cut it because it's spring.

Spring! Spring, spring, spring, spring, spring!

Aren't you eating?

My favorite, seaweed soup!

It's a bit bland, Mom.

You didn't season it, right? It's not that good.

I'm going to add some soy sauce.

Don't eat it!

What?

If it's bland, don't eat it!

Honey!

Mom...

What's wrong with you?

Why do you keep being mean to Jung Won?

Can't you see Jung Won is hurting?

That kid is constantly nervous about us.

She's your daughter, Honey.

Jung Won is our daughter.

Are you resenting Jung Won while you see Geum Ran?

After you brought in Geum Ran, are you starting to resent Jung Won?

Are you?

What's wrong with Mom, Uncle?

Geum Ran made the seaweed soup.

As a thank you to Mother and Father for her life.

What?

Think about it from Mom's point of view.

It's not just seaweed soup to her.

It's seaweed soup that brings tears and pain

and you said it was bland and not very good.

Jung Won...

Let's make things clear.

They say blood is frightening and just 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.

I told you not to come out. Go in and rest.

Take a day off and make sure to take your medicine.

Yes. Okay.

She called a busy person at the break of dawn about nothing.

Your aunt is such a nuisance.

Were you really scared?

Of course I was, you suddenly fainted.

You didn't get to sleep properly.

Driver Kim is waiting so go to work in my car.

Forget it. Bye.

Why are you in front of my house?

Were you waiting for me, Editor?

No! I'm not!

How can you be imagining such nonsense?

I was not waiting. Okay?

Then why are you in front of my house this morning?

It's strange.

Wipe your tears. You seem strange too.

You're not taking your car?

I forgot the keys and I don't want to go back in.

Let's go.

Why do you wear heels?

Who cares if you're seven or eight inches higher into the sky?

Start wearing sneakers tomorrow.

What? Who cares?

Excuse me, I don't wear these heels for anyone else.

I wear them because I like them.

Why do you care whether I wear heels or eat heels?

If sneakers are that comfortable, why don't you start wearing them?

No, how about black rubber shoes?

I think they'll go perfectly with your outfit.

Why are you laughing after pissing me off?

That was a snicker, right?

Do you know that you're very, very weird?

You're mean then caring, you're ill-tempered then kind.

Last night, you asked to be friends and this morning, you completely ignore me.

If you were going to do that, why did you wait in front of my house

and make my heart flutter?

You're confusing me!

Why, why, why?

Is there a reason why my heart shouldn't flutter?

You know how sometimes your heart flutters for no reason?

I really didn't mean anything by that!

Sometimes my heart flutters even when I see the delivery man in front of the door!

So what?

What? You're not going to work?

It's past 9!

Get up! Why are you suddenly being so lazy?

Hurry up and go!

I'm sick of everything so just let me be.

Did you get fired?

Honey? Ji Won's daddy?

Get up! Come up and get up!

Please get up!

Did you get fired?

Demoted.

To where?

They told me to go to pharmacies instead of hospitals.

I'm going to go crazy.

So your paycheck's getting cut too?

Oh that, money, money!

All you talk about is money, money!

How can you think about my paycheck getting cut over my pride getting cut?

So did it or did it not get cut?!

I don't know! I don't know either!

I want to drop everything and just farm in the countryside!

I'm so sick of Seoul and I can't bear to live here anymore!

What is this at the age of forty?

My home is shaky,

my job is shaky,

and my life is shaky.

Should we go live with Mom?

At Mother-in-law's?

She said she's going to sell the house and the store to repay Dad's debt

but how can I watch her pay rent at her age?

If we repay Dad's debt with our deposit

and live with Mom, our housing problem will be solved

and I can leave Ji Won with Mom so I can work too.

That would be too much even for you, right?

It's your entire life fortune.

You're wrong.

My entire fortune is you, Ji Won,

my mother-in-law, father-in-law and sisters-in-law.

Honey...

Let's stop looking for places to rent and do that, Tae Ran.

Even if we can't protect our home,

let's protect Mother-in-law's home.

Honey...

I got really attached here.

We can buy another home later.

Thank you.

You fool.

[Seung Jae hyung]

Hey, it's me.

What are you doing? Studying?

Yes.

Let's meet up. I'll treat you.

I heard training school is rough. Are you free?

I'm making precious time for you so don't say anything and come out, man.

Okay, you pick the time and place.

I'll call when I get to Shillim-dong so keep studying then come out.

More importantly, bring Geum Ran.

Why Geum Ran?

She quit working at the bookstore.

My goodness. Is she in her right mind or not?

Sang Taek told me you're renting out at her place.

Geum Ran's probably home right now.

Title...

Title.

Publishing Concept.

Marketing Concept.

Then what do I title it?

The World's Warning.

The Final Warning.

Disasters and Death.

Disasters and Happiness?

I'm getting stuck at the title.

A title that's aggressive and stirs up emotion!

A title that's aggressive and stirs up emotion?

What's wrong, Team Leader?

I'm looking for my diary.

Did you lose it?

I guess so.

I've been looking for it all day but I haven't seen it at all.

Oh, no. It has all the writers' info and your topic notes.

I know! It's killing me.

Where did it go?

When did I last look at it?

[Forest of Wisdom]

Excuse me, can I ask you something?

Han Jung Won works here, right?

She's our Team Leader. Are you here to see her?

Yes, is her Father here?

Team Leader Han.

They're asking for you to join the team leaders meeting.

What? Yeah, okay.

Are you okay?

No, I'm fine.

I'm fine. Everything's fine.

I'm fine. Yes, I'm fine.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Hwang Geum Ran's father...

No... Han Jung Won's father, Hwang Nam Bong.

Yes, I'm Han Ji Woong.

The publishing company is much more impressive than I thought.

Oh, no. Please have a seat.

Oh, yes.

It was killing me not to do anything so I just charged in here.

Please excuse me.

Yes, well...

Did you come because of Jung Won?

To take Jung Won�

I'm sorry but I can't allow that.

Even if she says she'll go to your place, I can't let that kid go.

I can't do that.

I'm sorry. I'm being selfish.

I'm just jealous.

That you can afford to be as selfish as you want.

I haven't even seen my daughter's face yet.

I need to see her before I tell her to come or stay, right?

Speaking of, can you call my daughter, please?

So I can see what she looks like.

What?

Why?

This father wants to see his child's face,

why are you so surprised?

The concept of this novel is what

100 psychologists in the world would call the elements of happiness.

There are a lot of illustrations and a collection of short sayings.

The pictures are vivid and the editing is well done so it seems

like a book that you would want to own instead of want to read.

This is a Spanish novel, right?

Yes.

They seem to be getting offers from lots of other publishers.

They say they're going to distribute all over Europe.

But marketing plate fees are expensive and they're not sure about the royalties, right?

Yes. That's right.

Team Leader Han, what do you think?

Team Leader Han Jung Won?

Yes... yes?

About this translation... Should we make an offer? Or should we not?

I asked what you think?

I'm sorry but what's the name of the book?

What?

What frivolous thoughts are you thinking during the meeting?

Then why did you come?

Is this a meditation center?

If you're going to zone out and keep distracting people, then get out!

What are you doing? Didn't you hear me tell you to get out?

It seems like the story is weak.

Aren't the psychologists being too vague?

They should show test results or a scientific relationship,

this is neither this nor that!

How is there not a single credible individual?

Are these people professional psychologists?

Then should I drop it?

Yes!

Next, Team Leader Oh.

What? Yes. Here, this is what I had from last time�

You were here?

The chairman is asking for you.

What? Yes.

Let's go.

No, I'm telling you, I am not suing.

Why not? Why won't you do it?

Aren't you upset?

You're going to let the people who messed up two families, two children's lives, just go?

For whose sake? For whose sake?

It does kill me but I won't let our children be hurt any more.

After a long trial, if the media gets involved, the entire world will know.

You want the children to go through that pain?

Oh, really? Then I'll have do it on my own.

No matter what anyone says, I will take up this lawsuit.

I'm saying it's not my fault.

It's not my fault but this whole thing feels like my fault.

I need to find out whose fault it is and get the proper compensation.

I'm sorry but if this is about money, I'll help you out.

I heard about your difficult situation.

I was already thinking about how I could help you.

What? If this is about money?

You... you seriously!

So? So, how much are you going to give me?

100,000,000 won?

200,000,000 won?

Yeah! Let's do that!

100,000,000 won per daughter.

Okay, I'm down!

What do you think?

Do you accept?

10,000,000 or 20,000,000 won isn't enough so don't concern yourself

with whether or not I sue if you don't want me to ask for more!

I'll give you 600,000,000 won.

Pay back your debt with that.

What did you say?

How much?

600,000,000 won?

Yes. But I'll pay that to the debt collectors directly�

Jung Won.

I knocked but you didn't answer so�

Come say hello.

He's your real father.

Jung Won.

I'll go to Shillim-dong this evening.

I'll say hello then.

I don't want to do it here.

I don't want to do it here, Dad.

Here�

Are you going out?

Yes, my friend asked to see me.

Okay, don't just stay at home and go out and meet your friends.

Oh, right! Check your back account.

What?

I added some allowance.

There's going to be a lot you need.

And it'll be difficult to ask me everyday.

Use it freely.

I'll give you more if you use it all so don't safe it. Okay?

Yes. Thank you.

No problem. Go on.

Yes.

It's delicious.

You said someone else's home? Whose home?

Why is she living in someone else's home instead of her own?

She's getting weirder and weirder.

What happened?

She suddenly quit then moved.

Tell me clearly from the beginning so can I easily understand, man!

[Cash Withdrawal]

Please enter your passcode.

[30,000,000 won - Jin Na Hee]

No way.

30,000,000 won?

You read so many books that you've lost your mind.

What, Man?

Hwang Geum Ran and Han Jung Won were switched?

You crazy bastard.

If you had married Geum Ran, your life would have been set.

How unfortunate, Hyung.

You said you were lucky.

You might have career luck but it seems like you don't have any financial luck.

Why didn't you tell me you were here together?

You're here? You came quickly.

Sit.

You've changed so much,

I might have passed by you on the street without recognizing you.

Is my mom okay?

I should answer you but I have nothing to say.

Let's go. I don't want to be here.

Geum Ran.

I'll be outside. Say your goodbyes.

Geum Ran, wait!

Geum Ran! Geum Ran, wait!

Geum Ran!

Let's talk. Let's talk, okay?

About what?

I thought we were done talking.

Oh, right, 11th on the bar exam?

I don't need that anymore.

I don't need you anymore so go.

Go to Han Jung Won. Go to her, okay?

Let's slowly talk from the beginning.

Not here like this...

Do you want to go to my apartment?

Let's go and have a heart to heart, okay?

Can you let go and get lost?

The smell of meat and garlic from your mouth

and the smell of your cheap cologne is making me sick as hell.

- Geum Ran. - Don't touch me!

This outfit is more expensive than your paycheck.

It's that Italy brand that you're so crazy about.

Thanks for breaking off the wedding.

Don't act like you know me. Don't call me.

Don't even think about sticking to me like a leech.

As you can see for yourself, I'm not the old Hwang Geum Ran.

- We're going home! - Goodbye!

- Good job today. - Goodbye.

Yes.

You're not leaving?

What have you been thinking about all day?

About abandoning my parents. All day.

How can I get the people who are my real parents out of my life...

How can I live without having to involve myself with those people�

Can I ask why you can't accept your real parents?

Because they're poor.

My real parents are incredibly poor.

And my real father is an addicted gambler.

His gambling debt must be around 600,000,000 won.

As soon as I accept my real parents,

that debt becomes mine too.

As soon as I accept my real parents,

this publishing company can never be mine.

Do you really mean that?

I didn't know I was such trash either.

I just don't want poor parents.

I'm just scared of becoming the daughter of a poor family.

I don't think that's something to say to Hwang Geum Ran

who lived a harsh life instead of you.

That's not my responsibility!

That's not my fault!

Just because she lived like that,

I don't have to live like her too!

About Hwang Geum Ran's proposal interview�

What if you pass her but I don't?

Then have you already cut Hwang Geum Ran before seeing her proposal?

I guess so.

So I think it would be better to pick another judge.

No, you do it.

Whether you accept or cut her is up to you

so don't think about running away and you personally decide

whether or not to let Hwang Geum Ran into our company.

Publishing proposal interview?

The idea item must be the most important.

Yes.

Wow.

There are so many books in the world,

it won't be easy to avoid all those and think of a new idea.

Can you do it?

I already have one.

Already? What is it?

The Nation's Untold Disasters.

I'm going for an environmental essay.

Because of the Japanese tsunami,

our country is talking about whether or not we're getting radioactivity

and whether or not we can trust the information.

And they talk about whether or not Baekdoo mountain will erupt.

That's what inspired the proposal.

It does sound interesting.

And makes me curious.

And it's a book I haven't heard of.

You seem to have some skill, Hwang Geum!

Did you know?

What?

You've gotten much happier.

And seem full of confidence.

Really?

You know, I got in a cab and the driver said I had an air of elegance.

I heard that for the first time in my life.

It felt really great.

Oh.

This...

What is it?

Your severance pay.

Mother said to return it to you.

Take it.

Give it to Mom.

If she continues to refuse it then hold on to it

and use it for Mi Ran's college tuition.

I have lots of money, Dae Bum.

My real mother gave me allowance today,

you know how much it was?

She put 30,000,000 won in my bank account.

I worked to death for ten years and my severance pay was 35,000,000 won

and she gave me 30,000,000 won for allowance.

I felt like I was going to fly away.

Like I had the whole world in my hands?

Money must be able to create confidence, Dae Bum!

You're going out again?

Why are you still like this?

Hurry up and change.

Honey?

Talk.

Why are you acting like a dog that needs to crap?

Say what you need to say.

Today, I�

Yes, today, you�

No, it's nothing.

Change and watch the baby.

I'm going to go prepare tomorrow morning's food.

Sleep, baby.

Is she really going to come?

Thanks for insisting on walking me home.

Yeah.

Let's go in together.

You came because you wanted an excuse to see Mother.

Even if Mother said that, she'd be happy to see you.

How can a mother and daughter live without seeing each other?

There's no way she meant that.

You make the effort.

If Mother kicks you away, approach her even more.

Don't leave Mother alone like this, Geum Ran.

Yeah. I will.

But I'll just watch from afar today, Dae Bum.

I don't have the nerve to see Mom's face.

Go in. I'll go after I stay here for a bit.

Okay. See you again.

Study hard.

Yeah.

Jung Won?

Dae Bum.

What brings you here?

I have something to say... To my real parents.

I'm going to go in so see you later.

Mother!

Mother!

Dae Bum?

You can't see again?

Yeah, I keep meaning to get glasses but I didn't get the chance.

Help me up, Dae Bum.

Mi Ran? Don't worry.

I'm fine, it's fine, okay?

I'm Jung Won.

Who?

Jung Won?

Jung Won?

Jung�

It's a relief that she couldn't see my face.

It won't continue to happen, right?

If Mom is sick but hiding it�

It doesn't make sense that I wouldn't know about my mom's illness.

Are you saying she's going to be blind?

I want to get interviewed fairly instead of being pulled in.

I don't think I can accept her.

It's because she's mad at me.

I have a request. Can you grant it?

Yesterday, we were friends.

Why did I suddenly become your enemy today?

I think I should choose my friends carefully.

Let's pretend we were never friends.

I have no intentions of being this family's daughter

or living here as this family's daughter.

Please let me be.

I'm begging you. Please act like you don't know me.
