12 YEARS PROMISE

You remind me of Jang Guk.

She was a bitch.

What?

It's a lousy love story. You want me to tell you?

No, you don't have to. You said it's lousy.

She ran away to the US or somewhere.

You know why she ran away?

She seduced Jun-su with her body.

Jang Dal-lae!

What are you doing?

Hey, Ms. Jang.

Da-hae, what did you say to her?

Why is she acting like that?

What?

You didn't say anything bad, right?

What bad thing?

Da-hae, this is my work place. You can't act like this here.

Didn't you see me getting slapped?

Because she would not have acted like that with no reason...

Da-hae.

Bye.

-Oh, you're leaving? -Da-hae.

-Thank you for the food. -Thank you.

Da-hae.

GEUMDEOK REAL ESTATE

Oh gosh, what are you doing?

-Who is this kid? -Ju Hong.

-Don't talk to him. -Why?

You're so cute.

Don't touch him.

Why? He's so cute.

It's none of your business.

That's why I'm asking. Who is he?

He's my friend's son.

Why are you shouting?

I'm so upset already.

Why? What now?

Did you buy clothes?

She gave it me.

These are expensive.

Yeong-hui gave this to me to celebrate her divorce.

Celebrating divorce?

Is she really getting divorced?

Yeah. She already submitted the papers.

That's not the problem here. She's buying me these things.

She's your friend. That's why.

Are you stupid?

What?

Even if she's my friend, she can't if she doesn't have money.

I used to do that 10 years ago.

So you're jealous?

No. You look so incapable.

Okay, okay. Go home.

-Let's go. -I can't.

You want me to go alone with these?

How can I leave this kid alone?

Call him then.

Oh my. It's not the first time you went home alone.

Jeong-han, where did all our wealth go?

Stop that and go make dinner.

How can you be so bad with business?

Losing all our wealth,

and making me live in such a lousy place.

If this is a lousy place, you should check out the places worse than this.

If you didn't get fired because of that dumpling girl

and lose all the wealth trying to do your business,

I wouldn't have lived like this.

I wouldn't have worried about frozen shoulder,

taking these heavy stuffs.

Oh please, don't start it again.

Repeating the same thing for 10 years,

don't you get tired of it?

Come on.

If it's so hard for you to listen to me,

how do you think I feel?

Quit then.

Yeah, I just can't do it anymore.

Okay, I'm not going to eat then.

Great.

You don't ever think about it again then.

I won't! I won't! I won't!

Great, I'll stop that now.

GEUMDEOK REAL ESTATE

Oh my. She's full of energy.

What're you going to do?

What?

Is she angry?

It's okay. She just has a hot temper.

No worries. Wives are all like that.

When you get married, you will...

Goodness. What am I trying to say to this kid?

Anyway, that will go for three months.

What a headache. Gosh.

PARKING ATTENDANT WANTED URGENTLY.

Come in.

Where's Mrs. Choi?

She's upstairs. Who's here?

I'm here for the parking attendant job.

Oh, really?

I'll take care of it, Ham-cho. Get back to your work.

Okay.

Are you good at driving?

Yes, I'm very good at driving.

Do you have any experience?

No. But I'm sure I'll be good.

When can you start?

Oh? If you can give me some time.

You can start from tomorrow.

Okay... What?

Is that all ma'am?

Well that's all. You said you're good at driving.

Oh, thank you ma'am.

Ask me if you have any questions.

Oh, you should be curious about the pay.

I don't worry too much about the pay but...

Can I ask for... No, this is too much.

What do you want to say?

Well, I need some money.

Can you pay me in advance?

I'm sorry. I needed some money badly

and I went way over the line.

Well then, I'll start from tomorrow.

Why do you need money?

What?

Yes. I'll be fine at last.

Yes! Yes!

Did someone visit?

I've hired a parking attendant.

Who was it?

Ju Cheol-su. I've written down his number.

Oh and...

-I also prepaid him. -Prepay?

How can you believe such a stranger?

It was so pitiful for him.

He was broke when he was working abroad,

and didn't have the money for his young child's day care.

It didn't look like he was lying so I helped.

For me, you're more pitiful.

You don't even know if he'll come again. How can you prepay?

He's not someone who'll do such.

Do they write it down on their forehead that they're bad?

I can tell.

They say it's impossible to look into what a man thinks.

Don't worry. It wasn't that much.

You don't know what I'm saying?

I haven't prepaid anyone here.

It's not my first time hiring people here.

Why are you overreacting?

Parking attendants don't work for too long anyway.

I didn't want you to bother on such things.

If you do whatever you want,

what am I supposed to do here?

Well, that's up to me.

Oh my, what's wrong?

Even if you have all the money,

it's bad if your daughter turns her back on you.

Why're you giving Go-sun such a hard time?

Did you hear all that?

It's your daughter. Don't you think it's too harsh?

You have kids. Why do you even ask?

Then go easy on her. She will go into shock.

It's better to fix things early.

And why do you care for Ham-cho so much?

How did Ham-cho end up here in the first place?

Hun brought her in.

Really? What happened?

He went for a trip to Jeung-do two years ago.

Hun almost hit Ham-cho's drunk dad

with his car.

Did she get hurt?

Well, she didn't want to go to the hospital

so Hun gave her his number and that was this place.

So that's how Ham-cho got here.

She came here to get a job.

And you felt she was the one?

No.

Of course she has good cooking skills,

but she spent days and nights making dumplings

even when I never taught her or told her to do so.

It wasn't about the money but she just enjoyed it.

I feel she's better than Go-sun for running this place.

NARIN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

May I ask you a question?

Does doctor Ju Da-hae work here?

You can go to the orthopedics on the second floor.

Orthopedics... Okay, thank you.

Oh my, Da-hae really became a doctor.

ORTHOPEDICS

-Excuse me. -Yes.

Is there a doctor Ju Da-hae here?

Her hours are over today.

Oh, okay.

Should I make you a reservation?

Oh, no.

Aren't you a patient?

Well...

My daughter... She's so tall like her mother.

Maybe even taller than me.

Oh my, she's so pretty.

Wow... These are great.

Quite pretty.

That's strange, why isn't he coming?

GEUMDEOK REAL ESTATE

What happened to him?

He's not even answering. Gosh.

-Sir. -Oh, why?

Why isn't my dad coming?

Yeah, I wonder why he's not coming.

I'm hungry.

You're hungry? Oh, man.

This is Geumdeok real estate office. Can I order two black-bean-sauce noodles?

Make it quick please.

Where is this guy?

My daughter is a doctor at Narin University Hospital.

Ju Da-hae.

My daughter. I want to see her.

Hope Hong becomes a doctor too.

Or maybe a pharmacist. Or an oriental doctor.

Oh, Hong. Where are you?

Hong? Where are you?

Hong... Hong? My Hong.

So you're saying you can't?

-We've already talked about this. -I can't hear you. Can't, can't...

Hey.

-You want me to give you money? -Borrow.

Why should I?

Forget about it then.

I can steal again. No worries.

Okay, I'll get going.

Where are you going to use it?

-For an audition. -Audition?

Audition. Don't you know audition for an agency?

What do you want to do if you pass?

I want to be a singer.

Is that your dream?

I don't know about dreams. I just want to do what I like.

If you want to be a singer, there are other ways. Listen.

You should study first.

Then you get into the contemporary music major in college.

Oh, man. Are you going lend it to me or not?

-Kid. -I don't like studying.

I even got kept back a year. How can I go to college?

Even so, why should I give you such money?

I sing well.

You can hear me sing and then decide. Fair?

I'll go see you tomorrow. So wait for me.

Bye. See you tomorrow, professor.

Hey, hey, hey! Hey, kid!

What was that? This is crazy.

Hey, what time is it now?

-What? -How can you...

Dad.

Oh my lovely son. How have you been?

Eww. You smell like alcohol.

Were you drinking?

Did you make us wait all day so that you could drink?

Sorry, Jeong-han.

I'm not going to help you anymore.

My wife comes here all the time.

She was here this afternoon and saw Hong.

I was so frightened.

-You don't-- -I wanted to see Da-hae so much...

I was at her hospital.

Da-hae?

Then you should've called.

I just saw her from behind but couldn't get her off my mind.

I had to drink. Sorry, Jeong-han.

Why didn't you say hi? You're her father.

Because I ran away. I didn't contact her at all till now.

Things happen you know.

But I didn't do anything good either.

Oh okay. Get back. Hong's sleepy now.

Let's go now. Let's go home.

Dad, walk straight.

Hey, you walk straight. I'm walking straight now.

Or you carry me on your back.

Isn't he the kid I saw today?

-You're too heavy. -Then I'll carry you on my back.

Thank you for calling me here.

Congratulations, Ms. Jang.

They didn't yet confirm to open their shop.

You can save your congratulations for later.

Okay.

Everyone of you,

let's all help Ms. Jang Dal-lae to make this project succeed.

-Okay, sir. -Okay, sir.

Come in.

Oh, Mr. Yu. Come sit here.

Yes, sir.

Since this project is so important,

you should help out Ms. Jang with her project.

Yes, of course.

I'll do my best helping her.

Okay.

He's such a great manager.

Let's go.

Where?

I've gathered everyone in the meeting room.

Do you know Da-hae well?

What do you mean?

Da-hae's my friend. What happened yesterday?

Are you asking me why I hit her?

I just don't want any misunderstanding.

I don't know what Da-hae said to you--

When did I seduce you?

Did Da-hae say so?

I really don't want to get involved.

So please take care of your personal life.

Where're you going? I'm still talking.

Is that all Da-hae said?

Hey, Ms. Jang!

What should I do then?

Well, that's up to me.

Does that mean she can kick me out?

Stop it. You're having a hard time too.

You said your legs hurt.

Actually, Il-suk...

I'm just saying this because I was quite surprised.

But, I'm so proud of you. How could you make all that wealth?

Have you thought about helping Ham-cho?

Well, you know Hun...

He's great at picking up girls.

How can Ham-cho do anything to such a guy?

Yes.

Lunch is ready.

Oh, okay.

Aren't you coming back home?

Why should I? It's much better here at the hotel.

I'm free here.

You've cut your own throat. You're the one who brought Ham-cho.

Grandma's not going to give up easily.

Don't exaggerate.

Marriage is not something that can be done like that.

And if I don't want to,

it's not going to work like that,

even if my dad wakes up from his grave.

You're right.

If you don't want to. Grandma's not going to push you.

But we have a problem.

The owner of Dallae Dumplings is your grandma.

It's under her name.

She's just a substitute. You're the one who runs the store.

No, I'm the substitute.

Well then let her have the dumpling place.

You mean you don't care?

Do you know how much it makes every day?

Then what should I do?

Are you telling me to marry that girl?

No, I don't like Ham-cho either.

I was going to inherit this place to you from the first place.

So quit your job and start working in the kitchen from tomorrow.

Wait, wait.

Does that mean,

you want me to mince the meat and cut the onions in the kitchen?

Are you saying I should do that?

Of course.

Forget about it.

Let Dal-lae take that place. Grandma loves Dal-lae anyways.

That place is yours. You're my son.

I'm sure you're good at it.

Good at it? You're driving me crazy.

Like cooking skills?

Yeah.

Oh my, Mom.

I'm just twenty-six now.

You want me to waste my youth in that kitchen?

It's going to be tough at the beginning.

There are tons of girls who're waiting for me.

I don't have enough time to enjoy.

Are you deaf or something? Why don't you understand?

As you've mentioned, I'm the one who grew Dallae dumplings this big.

Do you want to give it away like that?

You are grandma's daughter. She can't take it away like that?

The land and the building. It's all under her name.

Oh, come on.

It's all up to what Grandma wants to do. Don't you understand?

That doesn't make sense.

When your sister went to the US and when we started this business.

I wrote a memo with her, that we'll make this a family business.

So do you mean,

if we don't do as what Grandma wants, she can give this place to Ham-cho?

It's up to her.

What?

Now I see why you like her so much.

But Ham-cho, guys are fools.

They don't care about these. They're only interested in sexy girls.

Or pretty girls.

They just like those kinds of stuffs.

How can I help you?

I'm sorry.

It's nothing to be sorry about.

Speaking of such,

can you take Ham-cho out,

and buy her some clothes and whatever she needs?

You can use this.

Grandma.

One two three... $1,000,000. Use all this?

Tell me if you need more. I'll give you my credit card.

No, I'm fine.

Do as I say. Do what Sam-suk tells you to do.

Buy some pretty clothes and things that you want.

It's too much. She'll take it as a burden.

I'm doing this for her to take it as a burden.

There's nothing free in life. Pay me back with something else.

Okay.

Oh my. I'm getting goose bumps.

I feel like she's walking into a tiger's den.

You just do as I say.

Hun.

So it's all because of Ham-cho.

It's going to be all good if we get rid of her, right?

Yes.

I'll have to solve this myself.

Since I'm the one who brought her in, I'll kick her out.

So don't worry.

Okay.

I'll go home today.

And I'll make sure I kick her out of the house.

But you'll have to promise me one thing.

Go on.

If she goes away, I'll move out.

Move out?

Yes. I'd like to live alone for a while.

Let's talk about that after we kick her out.

Okay.

GAON DALLAE DUMPLINGS

-Good morning. -Good morning.

Dal-lae went to work.

I know.

It's been a while, Grandma.

It is.

Must have been relaxing not seeing me around.

You must have had a good time yourself.

You look good.

What're you talking about?

Jolie, nothing is better than home.

Let's eat.

Da-hae doesn't seem to be calling too often these days.

About Da-hae,

I think she's one of the best girls. Right?

Of course. She's been visiting us

every New Year for decades now.

Yes, yes.

What are you talking about?

Everyone knows that Ju Da-hae likes you.

Don't mention it.

Hey, if you don't treat her well, you're going to lose her forever.

Enough of pushing her away.

I have someone else I like.

What?

I'm saying I like some other girl.

You're doing this because you want to keep distance with Da-hae, right?

It's not that, Dad. I really like this girl.

I'll get going.

Hey, Yu Jun-su. Don't try to lie. You can't trick me.

Hey, Yu... Yu Jun-su.

I wish it was a lie so that I won't have this frustration

in my heart. Okay?

Bye.

You know something, right?

Yes.

Is it true he's dating some other girl?

Yes.

What does she do?

Well...

She works with him at the department store.

Really?

It's not been long. But it's just one sided.

What on earth are you talking about?

He's too old for one sided love.

That means he doesn't have a woman.

They're not dating.

I was so surprised.

Don't bother and eat. That's nothing.

-What the... -Oh my.

What's up with all this fuss?

It's because of Mr. Woo brand is coming in.

Really? Mr. Woo will really be opening up a store here?

That's huge. That woman is quite capable then.

Well, we'll have to wait and see.

But working on a holiday really sucks.

-When are we going to finish all of this? -We have to do this as well.

-Another one? -My goodness.

Hi there.

-Hi. -Keep it up.

Keep up the good work.

Mu-cheol.

Hello.

Are you on duty today?

Yes.

Great.

I'll have to work late today because I have to prepare the live tour.

Don't worry.

Keep it up.

What's up with Ms. Jang?

I told you.

After Da-hae's visit, she's trying to ignore me.

I can't take this anymore.

If she keeps on ignoring me like that,

I'm going to threaten her that I'll kill myself.

I'm sure that will work great.

Right?

Yes, I'm looking at it right now.

The house with the orange roof, right?

Okay. I'll have to check.

Lee Ju-ho.

Lee Ju-ho!

Hey, it wasn't him.

Is this all you can do?

Do your job correctly.

If you don't find Lee Ju-ho in a month,

I'm not going to let you get away with this.

Hey, Da-hae.

Jun-su, what're you doing now?

I'm a bit busy right now. I'll call you later.

Jun-su...

Sorry, the number you called is busy.

What is it?

Let's go.

What is it?

Let's go together.

Where?

Wherever.

Mr. Yu...

I have something to tell you.

You can tell me tomorrow.

No, it's something I have to say today.

I've been running around all over trying to help you

and this is how you treat me?

Why are you treating me like this?

I heard that you're treating Mu-cheol as your friend.

Where do you want to go?

Let's just leave this area first.

Yu Jun-su...

What is it that you want to say?

Why?

I like you.

I said I like you.

Actually, you looked quite familiar, the first time I met you.

Are you okay?

Yes.

What kind of dude is it driving like that?

Wait right here.

Get off.

Get off.

Get in.

Get in.

I'm sorry.

Is she okay?

I'm sorry... But tomorrow I'll...

Well no, I'll call you later.

Pick up the phone when I call you.

What on earth were you thinking?

Huh?

What were you trying to do?

What if someone got hurt?

What about you?

What?

Are you that worried that she might get hurt?

I'm worried for you too.

Well then it's fine. No one's hurt.

-Ju Da-hae. -Why do you care for her?

Do you realize that you're acting strange after she appeared?

You weren't like this before.

You weren't.

Da-hae.

Tell me, what's up with you?

Fine. I think I like her.

I like Jang Dal-lae.

And?

That doesn't mean we have to cut our relationship.

How can you do this to me?

We're friends.

Friends?

What kind of friend? Childhood friend? Drinking friend?

Can't we just be friends?

-Does it have to be like this? -Yu Jun-su!

Do you think it's okay if you say we're friends?

You know you're not just a friend to me.

That's why I'm asking you right now.

Are we not supposed to see each other then?

Da-hae.

Da-hae... Da-hae!

Ju Da-hae. Da-hae!

JANG DAL-LAE

YU JUN-SU

Did you see Dr. Ju?

No.

Dr. Ju!

She has to make her rounds now.

The phone is not answering...

The phone is not answering. Connecting to...

Where did you go?

Can we talk?

If it's about work, we can talk later.

Let go of me.

What is it?

-Yesterday was... -You don't have to explain.

I was worried.

You should worry about Ju Da-hae.

And you can also step away from the Mr. Woo project.

I can take charge.

I can't take anymore of you meddling on this.

-Calm down. -You should calm down yourself first.

Hey, Dal-lae.

Mr. Yu. This is a work place.

Don't call my name like that.

Is it you Jun-seong?

Da-hae? Isn't Da-hae at the hospital?

What are you saying?

Da-hae didn't come home yesterday, so I thought she was at the hospital.

If she isn't there, where can she be?

What happened to her? The director is mad now.

What's wrong with you? How do you not know where she is?

It's Dr. Ju's turn to lead the conference this time.

What are you doing? Where is she?

Hey, Jun-seong.

Did something happen between you and Da-hae?

Yes.

Jun-seong...

Hello?

I'll go find her, so please wrap things up here.

-Wrap up? -What do you mean? Hey!

What are we supposed to do?

Hey, Yu Jun-seong!

What should we do?

The phone is turned off...

Why is it off? She's driving me crazy.

Yeong-hui.

Yeong-hui?

Hey, what's wrong with your son?

What do you mean?

Da-hae's not at the hospital and she didn't even come home yesterday.

And?

What does that have to do with me?

Why are you talking about my son like that?

Oh, come on.

You know Da-hae likes Jun-su.

Even so, shouldn't he back off,

if he thinks he's not good enough for her?

Not good enough? What do you mean?

He had a child.

Hey!

Your son is my son too.

I always hoped that Jun-su would turn out well.

I can't take this anymore. What do you mean he had a child?

It didn't even come out. That's too much.

I'll keep it as a secret.

Whatever girl he meets, I'm on your side,

and will keep that as a secret.

Now I know why people have two nostrils. So that we don't suffocate.

Did Jun-su beg Da-hae to like him?

What?

It was Da-hae who liked him all this time.

Why're you blaming it on him now?

Hey, if I treat Jun-su like my son,

shouldn't you Da-hae like your daughter too?

She's not at the hospital now.

She's 31.

Are you making all this fuss because your grown-up daughter

didn't come home?

It's because of Jun-su!

Hey! Stop it!

You want Jun-su to do great right?

Hey, why are you yelling at me?

What did I do? And...

it's all true you know.

You're such a fool.

What? Jun-su's child?

You're driving me crazy.

Oh my! Damn it!

Oh my, oh my.

How can she do that to me? What did I do wrong?

I'm already so worried about Da-hae. What? Fool?

Jun-su is meeting someone else.

I don't like Da-hae too much,

but since I think of her as my daughter,

make sure you convince her to stop following Jun-su. Okay?

Hey, Beom-suk. Oh my.

What is she saying right now?

Did she say she didn't like Da-hae? Why? Why?

You don't seem to be getting this clearly because it's your son.

Oh that crazy woman. I can't believe this.

Da-hae. Da-hae!

Close it.

Let's go.

Close the curtain.

Let's go to the hospital.

Get out now!

Da-hae.

How did you come here? I told you to leave me alone!

You always come here whenever you're having a hard time.

How long are you going to do this?

-Let's go to the hospital. -Let me go.

-Chief. -Shut up!

Da-hae!

You think I'm lousy too, right?

When you act like this over a guy, I do.

-It's been 24 years. -It's been 24 years for me too!

Nevertheless...

I just watch you like this.

Are you two brothers playing with me?

Are you having a harder time than me?

Even when I'm frustrated, even when I have something to say...

Even when I want to be with you,

I can't do anything about it.

Then just shut up and leave!

The fact that you're Jun-su's brother

drives me crazy.

Get out of my sight.

Get out of here! Get out! Go away!

Go away! Go! Go!

Go! Go...

12 YEARS PROMISE

I heard everything from your uncle.

Who is she? Can't you tell me her name?

Jang Dal-lae.

-Why're you so depressed? -I got hit from my back.

He didn't seem like he'd break a promise. But he did.

-Then don't play with him. -He's cute.

Oh my goodness. Is it really you?

Dad.

Are you guys serious? Do you know how she's been living?

Hey!

12 YEARS PROMISE
