Original subtitles

We're back.

Yes. Great job. Come on in.

- You're here, Sul Ak. - Hey.

Dad still has the respirator on.

His breathing and pulse are normal.

And it's not getting any worse, so we should see how things go.

But it's a relief.

Ms. Gong Gye Ok.

Yes?

When did you get off work yesterday?

Pardon?

I got off at around six yesterday.

Why do you ask?

I was the last to leave yesterday at around nine.

Father was at the restaurant then.

But where were you at that hour?

Sorry?

Are you suspecting me?

Min Joo.

Min Joo, that's a bit...

She's just asking.

I was at Majang-dong.

I use my spare time to do some deboning work.

If you call the owner there, he'd tell you.

All right. Don't get me wrong.

This is for your own good.

For her own good? What do you mean by that?

The fact is that all of Father's fortune is in Ms. Gong's hands.

If this wasn't just an accident,

but someone disguised it as an accident intentionally,

don't you think she's the most likely suspect objectively?

Suspect?

I asked you to prove your alibi.

What in the world...

I guess you could think that.

Thank you.

What's with the mood?

Are you guys fight with jjajangmyeon like when Dad passed away?

It hasn't been long since we cried and regretted it!

Watch your mouth in front of your brothers!

Are you trying to teach us?

It's not like Min Joo asked anything that she's not allowed to.

Of course.

Then is that something you should say to another?

Min Joo, do you mean it?

Did you really ask her, so you could prove her alibi?

Are you seriously worried about her...

or are you just saying that to upset her...

as you're unhappy about her being an adult guardian?

A suspect?

How dare you yell at your sister-in-law?

Please!

I know you guys are on the edge as you're all anxious and worried.

I understand where you're coming from,

but let's not do this...

for Mr. Boo's sake.

I'll get going.

Gye Ok.

Geez.

My goodness, what a mess.

Hold on. I'll drive you home.

You must be exhausted. You should go in and rest.

Don't be mad.

It's not like I wasn't prepared for this.

You should hurry inside. Your family would start to complain.

Are you sure I don't need to take you home?

Go and rest. Quickly.

Okay.

There is a way.

It's something that you can help me with.

What can I help him with?

You're home together.

We met in front of the house.

Goodness me. What about Jang Won?

- He went to the study room. - Right.

Can I take wash up first?

Sure. Wash up and rest. You must be tired.

What's wrong with her face? Is there something going on?

The owner of the noodle restaurant fell unconscious.

Oh, gosh. Why?

Apparently, it's a stroke or something.

Don't show it as it's disturbing.

A suspect?

How could she think that even if she hates me?

I'm going to hold back until Mr. Boo wakes up.

He really needs to wake up though.

Yes?

Are you washing up?

Yes, why?

Did you get that family's bank account or a seal?

What?

Why?

Yong Mi told me that you have all their fortune.

Why would you do such a dangerous thing?

What if you lose any of that?

Don't worry. I don't carry it around.

It's in the bank's safe.

Really?

Still, be careful.

Money is scarier than people.

All right.

Wash up.

I think it'd be more dangerous for me to carry it around.

Baek Doo.

What brings you here so early?

Well, Baek Doo, when you got off work that night,

was there anything unusual in the kitchen?

Anything unusual?

I'm not sure. Jung Gwon closes the kitchen.

Then Chef Cha must have left the kitchen last.

I guess so. Why?

Oh, it's nothing.

You should hurry and make the soup. Dad's not here to help.

Hey, is Geum Gang going to the hospital?

No, Gye Ok and Ga On will be there.

Right. She's practically family now.

Hello.

Hey, you're here early?

Yes. Is there something wrong?

No.

The day before yesterday, when Dad fell over,

Yes? What is it?

When did you get off work?

Oh, I was just curious.

I'm asking all the other employees too.

I don't know the exact time,

but Mrs. Yoon and Ae Ri...

were by the cash register when I got off work.

Is that so? Did you not come back after that?

Sorry?

You could've left something here or didn't close the gas valve.

No.

Sorry. It seems someone left the out-of-date oil out.

I don't know anything about that.

Right. Take care.

I've never seen him like that.

Did you come home late last night?

Yes.

How's your dad?

He's not doing well.

Is he at the hospital?

Yes.

My uncle fell unconscious due to a stroke too.

He recovered after a year of rehabilitation.

He'll be okay.

But how did you manage to clean the house?

It was all cleaned when I came home.

I was on duty.

I called the cleaner through the application.

An application?

Like a cleaning service app?

Yes.

Why did you?

I could have done it myself.

In case you tell me off for not cleaning when it's my turn.

Knowing what you're going through, would I do that?

Are you now telling me off for doing it?

Stop nagging.

How can I do everything to your liking?

I'm not nagging.

Let's talk later.

You made me into a narrow-minded person.

He's changed.

Actually, your dad bought the computer too.

"On a foggy road where you can't see ahead."

Where did I put it?

I found it.

Are you going to school now?

Here. Give this to Dad.

This is the prize you won from the hip-hop contest.

You cherished this as you said it's a family treasure.

Why are you giving this to him?

It looks too old-fashioned.

I don't think I'll wear it, so give it to Dad.

It's fine if he won't wear it.

Why wouldn't he?

Okay.

He will love it.

I'm going to school.

He must really like his dad.

- Why are you here? - Oh, Gye Ok.

Hello.

Hey, Ga On.

Ga On wanted to come.

I stopped by to bring her.

I see.

I'll go now.

Then, please take care of him.

Goodbye. I'll call you.

All right.

When are the visiting hours?

Pardon?

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

I'm here.

Ga On, who you adore, is here.

You're listening, right?

He will know.

Goodness.

How do you pour water so well?

You haven't splashed one drop.

Pardon?

I just poured it.

I like it.

That's it!

It's just right. My goodness.

You did very well.

Dad.

Is Mr. Boo okay?

He's still unconscious,

but his pulse, breathing, and everything else are normal.

That's a huge relief.

Even Auntie is sick.

I know, right?

Since Father and Ms. Gong aren't here,

the hall will be busy and the kitchen will be busy too.

Hello.

You're here.

You came.

We're only opening for lunch today, so keep that in mind and work.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Ga On. Have you been there? - Yes.

How is your grandpa?

He's just sleeping.

He looks comfortable.

You have to go to school now.

Yes.

Eat before you go. I'll get it ready.

No, Ae Ri. I'll do it. Keep working.

Let's go in, Ga On.

Here you go.

Ga On, you're going through a tough time at a young age.

I'm not much of a help.

It's fine.

You know your friend.

Ms. Gong's nephew.

Jang Won?

Yes. He looked very bright and kind.

Does he stay in touch with his dad?

It's been about 10 years,

but he suddenly got in touch and met a while ago.

That's why he feels happy these days.

Really? That's great!

Gosh. His dad doesn't have a family?

That's right.

He said they may live together.

Apparently, Jang Won's mom likes him more.

Good!

But why?

Since he's Ms. Gong's nephew and your friend,

I'm just drawn to him.

How did he find our cold noodles?

Did he like it?

Yes.

He asked if he could come and eat often.

Really?

You can go and work.

I'll soak the dishes and go.

Okay. Thank you.

If he's Jung Gwon's son,

that makes Gye Ok his sister-in-law.

(Gong Gye Ok)

The number you have dialed is unavailable. Please leave a...

I heard Auntie didn't come to work today.

You're here.

Where's the hospital? I want to visit too.

There is no need to come. The visiting hours are also short.

I will boil the meat.

Just make the buckwheat dough, please.

Okay.

Well...

Did you see the picture I took with Jang Won?

What?

No, not yet.

You both look great.

The more I see him, the better good-looking he is.

Please be nice to Jang Won.

Of course.

Ms. Gong Gye Ok.

We need to check the account book.

Okay.

Answer my question clearly.

If you ask politely.

Cha Jung Gwon.

Did you two know each other?

Is he Gong So Young's ex-husband?

So, is he your brother-in-law?

What do you mean?

Ga On's friend,

your nephew, came here to this restaurant.

He said he would come often as he liked...

Pyongyang-style noodles even at a young age.

Before that, So Young came here with her son.

She introduced Chef Cha to her son.

I only thought...

it was because Gong So Young liked to interfere.

I'm sorry for not telling you.

What are you guys planning?

What? What plan?

Why did you hide it?

I also knew a while ago...

that Chef Cha is my brother-in-law.

When my sister got married,

I was in the province because of my job...

and we weren't close then.

So I saw him only once when Jang Won was born.

So, you're saying...

that you didn't know each other while working at this restaurant?

My sister told me when she started seeing him again recently.

As this has happened, I'll tell him to quit.

I can understand the face, but didn't you know his name?

Gong Gye Ok and Cha Jung Gwon. You both don't have common names.

Actually,

his name isn't Cha Jung Gwon.

Honey!

I'm going to the hospital.

Ms. Gong. Can you trim the soup meat?

Sure.

I'll see you.

Okay.

How is the Chinese series going?

Are you still coming up with the recipe?

Yes.

There are so many existing Jjajangmyeon and jjampong products,

so it seems difficult to stand out by the taste.

Shinsung Foods...

collaborated with Chef Kang Jae Won's restaurant, Hailu.

It's said they bought the trademark rights for 1.8 million dollars.

Then are they launching the name...

like "Hailu jjajangmyeon" and "Hailu jjampong"?

At first, people will eat it out of curiosity,

but the name is useless if it's not tasty.

It will take time,

but it is advantageous in the long run...

to develop our own original product.

It's such a small restaurant,

but their trademark right is 1.8 million dollars?

They must've signed a contract for a franchise,

not only instant food.

Oh, then Buruna Noodles would be more expensive than that.

I'm so jealous.

There's no need to be jealous.

We won't sell our trademark rights.

Go and have lunch.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

But is Buruna Noodles that famous?

It's one of the top three Pyongyang-style noodles.

Director Boo is quite the silver spoon.

Baek Doo. Are you at the hospital?

How's Dad?

He's the same.

Oh, really?

You closed the restaurant early, right?

Yes. We only opened for lunch.

Baek Doo. Aren't you close to Chef Cha?

You mean Jung Gwon?

Yes, I am.

What did he do before working at our restaurant?

Did he use to work at a noodle restaurant?

I don't think so.

I think he said he ran an academy somewhere.

I'm not sure. He doesn't talk about himself much.

Okay. I see.

It's nothing.

Take care.

Are you getting off work late today?

No, I'm not. What is it?

I'll wait for you at home.

I need to talk to you about Chef Cha.

How should I tell him?

We'll be off now.

We'll be going now.

Yes. Good job today.

I'm sure he is Lee Kyung Oh.

He's a credit delinquent, so he's been hiding his identity.

You violated the traffic signal.

Please show me your driver's license.

I don't have my driver's license now.

I only have my ID.

(Registration card)

Why would this be here?

How dare he fool me?

Why this guy...

Knowing Father handed over all his property to Gong Gye Ok,

he tried to...

I heard the owner of the restaurant collapsed.

You heard about it, didn't you?

So, how is he doing?

He survived,

but he's unconscious like in a vegetative state.

That's unfortunate.

So Young.

Tell me. What do you need my help with?

We're in this together anyway.

I should do anything except stealing.

Shall we go...

to your house?

Our house?

No one's there at this time.

Why would you want to go all the way there?

It's not something I can tell you here.

Would you like a drink?

It's okay.

You can tell me now.

So Young.

I think there is a way for us.

What?

Don't be surprised by what I'm about to tell you.

What is it?

(Buruna Noodles)

I was going to go in. Why did you come out?

Let's talk outside.

What is it about? You seem so serious.

Are you trying to confess?

Sul Ak.

To be honest,

there's something I hid...

I mean, that I couldn't tell you.

It's about Chef Cha.

He is...

my brother-in-law.

What?

Kyung Oh.

Can you do this for me?

It's for me and Jang Won.

To Gye Ok?

(Brilliant Heritage)

If we take advantage of Gye Ok, there's a way for us.

He's her brother-in-law? That's icky.

- It's two million dollars. - Two million?

Are you saying we should break up?

Until I leave the house, let's be like roommates. As friends.

All right. I'll do as you said.

I'm so lucky to have met you in my life.

Father. Was it him?
