Original subtitles

(Bodantia)

It's here.

"Bodantia".

"Its width is 1143km²."

"The annual GDP per person is 130,000 dollars."

"Women use expensive purses for grocery shopping."

"They're given 100,000 dollars..."

"right after birth."

"The kingdom pays for everything for its people..."

"including electricity, gas, water, health care, and loans."

- Awesome! - Really?

I'd love to immigrate there.

- Is that true? - Awesome!

Attention, everyone.

It's not decided whether he'll invest in our company or not,

but he has made it clear that he'll only do it through Mr. Kang.

Do be careful.

By any chance,

if our rival banks find out, everything may go in vain.

Keep your lips sealed.

- Goodness. - But I want to tell other people.

- Goodness. - Why should we keep it a secret?

(Episode 4)

What are you waiting for? Take it.

Okay.

Take it.

Okay.

(Lee Ji Young)

What took you so long to pick up?

Where are you?

Where on earth are you?

She's fierce.

Hey, what is it? Is something wrong?

Your mother's been playing cards for hours.

And she gets free treatments.

I feel so sorry for the poor doctor I work for.

Isn't this just too much?

Honey, I love you.

Okay, bye.

What are you on about?

Come home quickly and clean up this mess.

Mommy.

Who is it?

Is it Daddy?

You have a daughter?

I'm asking you.

It sounds like the other person is whispering right next to you.

Korea is the world's most technologically advanced country.

There are many cellphones with high voice quality.

I guess the kid next door came over to our house.

There's no way I have a daughter.

Bodantia should...

catch up with Korea's technology quickly.

Don't you think so, Abdallah?

What should I do now?

What should I do really?

Ji Young...

Ji Young.

Ji Young...

Ji Young.

Ji Young.

Ji Young!

I don't know her.

We confirmed it all already.

We know she's your mother.

I gave up my inheritance rights.

I'm not obligated to be her guardian.

Her hospital bills are overdue, and it's causing us trouble.

You people.

Did you ask for my permission before you operated on her?

Take care of it yourselves.

Don't make it my responsibility.

Goodness.

Where should I hide these?

Will they fit in here?

Gosh, you startled me!

Why are you so startled?

Goodness.

How could I not be?

You were standing there like a ghost.

Why are you the one getting mad?

I'm the one who should be.

Where did the toolbox go?

Ji Young.

Ji Young!

What?

By any chance...

What?

Never mind.

What was that?

Finish your sentence.

I didn't know we had dishes like these.

I guess they sell nice dishes on home-shopping channels.

Why is it so empty?

There's nothing to eat.

What is it this time?

You caused trouble, didn't you?

Spill it.

What are you talking about?

By the way,

don't you think your father-in-law is alive?

What are you trying to pull?

Do you need money?

What are you talking about? It's not that.

Tell me before you get a beating.

I mean...

It's not like...

you witnessed his passing.

Maybe he's alive somewhere out of reach.

You never know what will happen.

I just came to think that...

he might show up as a successful man if he's alive.

What do you think?

I think it's possible enough.

Stop talking gibberish and clean that up.

Why would you...

rule out that possibility?

You need to think open-mindedly.

You're a writer, yet you lack imagination.

Tell me.

Why are you bringing that up all of a sudden?

I mean...

You...

never told me about your father. Not even once.

Why?

Did your mother throw a fit again?

Did she tell you to find your late father-in-law this time?

Why do you think it's because of my mother all the time?

Because that's how she is.

She always looks down on me for not having parents.

When did she do that?

How come you never take my side?

Gosh.

What?

It was just a thought I had.

It's upsetting to work under my college friend.

I don't want to be...

counting other people's money all my life.

I wondered...

if I could get lucky.

I imagined your father would appear and hand me a fortune.

I fantasized about that, okay?

You...

Do you have any idea how my day was today?

Jerk.

Do you have any idea how my day was today?

Why you...

Come to your senses.

My dad is dead and gone.

It's upsetting to work under my college friend.

I don't want to be counting other people's money all my life.

I wondered...

if I could get lucky.

I imagined your father would appear and hand me a fortune.

I fantasized about that, okay?

What's going on?

- My goodness. - Darn it.

This is incredible.

A noble person like you got off a crowded bus.

This is unbelievable.

Be quiet. Others might hear you.

If I were you, I'd announce to the world...

that I'm married to wealthy in-laws.

- I won the lottery. - Have you lost your mind?

We've been waiting for you.

You became the son-in-law of a count overnight.

How do you feel?

- What's going on? - What's your relationship?

I heard she's a producer.

His wife isn't a producer.

- What? - What did he say?

She's just a housewife. She isn't a producer.

Is that true?

Is what he said true?

Is it?

No, no.

It was just a dream.

I'm so relieved that it was just a dream.

This is my stop.

- Pardon me. - Why are you pushing me?

Stop pushing me. I'm getting off here.

- Don't step on my foot. - Gosh.

One client per day. Invest every week.

- Come first in rank every year. - Come first in rank every year.

- We can do it. - We can do it.

Chief Kang.

Ho Rim, why did you run here? Don't exhaust yourself.

You're sweating so much.

My goodness, I should separate work from private matters.

Everyone, Chief Kang and I...

have been best friends since high school.

It's because we're very close.

I hope you understand.

- Lastly, Chief Kang. - Yes?

Aren't you hot? Let's go to my office.

Come on.

His attitude changed completely overnight.

How terrible.

You know that I can keep secrets, right?

Who is that man?

What does he do?

I'm really curious.

Byung Tae.

It's very hard for me.

Being endowed with sudden fortune is overwhelming, isn't it?

I understand that it's overwhelming.

As overwhelming as it may be,

shouldn't you share the fortune with those around you, my friend?

So tell me.

- What does he do? - If I tell you, you must die.

I'm leaving.

Accept his investment no matter what.

Okay?

Okay, whatever.

Drink this and feel better, Chief Kang.

Thank you, Min Hee.

By the way, Chief Kang.

Who is he? How do you know him?

Is he Korean by any chance?

Min Hee, stay out of his business.

Here's what you asked for.

Is it true that he's from Bodantia?

How did you know?

- I overheard him say it. - How dare you?

No, he's not. What are you talking about?

Goodness.

(I've always admired you.)

May I ask for 10 million dollars?

- May I get 10,000 dollars? - I send you love.

What's your secret?

Can you share your tips?

Do you need anything?

I'm so jealous of you, Chief Kang.

- Don't forget us. - Don't forget us.

You're handsome and lucky. Don't forget me.

I knew you'd make it one day.

- Let's stay together until the end. - Can you introduce me to him?

How is your wife doing?

I'll treat you to lunch today.

Chief Kang, you're my role model.

Soon their relationship is torn into pieces.

Why didn't you tell me before?

You always create fights.

- How could you? - Why are you watching this?

It's not fun at all.

Did your friend write that too?

Yes, how did you know?

You don't like anything written by your friend...

who studied education in writing.

Are you jealous?

- No. - Do you envy her?

Of course not.

Do you think I envy people who write terrible scripts?

Is it because she's a professional screenwriter?

Yes.

My goodness.

- Hello? - Is this Lee Gyu Eun?

No, you have the wrong number.

I absolutely do not envy her.

I'm a writer myself, and she lowered the standard of Korean dramas.

That's what makes me angry.

- Hello? - Isn't this Lee Gyu Eun?

Isn't this 01032050145?

It's the right number, but you have the wrong person.

Let's discuss it later. What am I doing?

That little girl. I was already in a bad mood.

She's making it worse.

- Mom. - You startled me.

Shall I invite Min Ki over for my birthday?

Min Ki?

Did you decide to go out with that handsome boy?

No, I'll tell him that I like him.

Eun Bi, women should never confess their love first.

Didn't you propose to Dad first?

Like mother, like daughter.

Who does she take after to be so straightforward?

I can't understand her.

("Man Who Flogs a Dead Horse" by Lee Gyu Eun)

Isn't this Lee Gyu Eun?

I don't believe this.

That was my name. What should I do?

Eun Bi, where's my cell phone?

Where did I put my cell phone?

Where did I put it?

Yes, I'll see you that day. Thank you.

- Did you set up a meeting? - Yes, ma'am.

By the way, her legal name is the same as yours.

Is that so?

Even amateur writers have pen names these days.

Amateur writers are still writers. Don't look down on them.

No one is famous from the start.

Mi Ran, Mi Ran!

See? What did I tell you?

I said you'd make it one day.

Yes, I was meant to make it one day.

- When is the meeting? - It's the 26th.

- What? - It's on the 26th.

The meeting is on the 26th. It's official.

To congratulate you, I'll treat you tonight.

Let's go clubbing.

Clubbing? We're too old for that.

This is not some club for kids.

It's a VIP club that only celebrities can enter.

I got invitations from my regular patient.

You're so lucky. Come on, let's go.

No way. I'm not going.

First, you should get acupuncture to look younger.

Acupuncture to look younger? Is that effective?

Of course.

Insert those needles now.

Here is the file you asked for.

How many rooms are there?

This won't work.

You need to work more on this house.

Yes, ma'am.

I'm waiting for you at the coffee shop downstairs.

Think about it. He thinks that I'm your husband.

Even if...

I tell him that I'm married,

he'd say, "Well, you're married. You can't be single."

And what do I say to that?

But then, I can't say, "We're lovers."

That has negative connotations.

Scratch out "lovers".

Forget this.

"We have a connection."

No, "friends that get along"...

Over here.

Why are you here out of the blue?

I'm busy, I can't stay for long.

Okay, so...

I have something important to say.

Okay, so, Ji Young.

Oh, gosh, the thing is...

I want you to believe that...

this isn't what I want.

Is it that difficult?

It really is.

It's pretty easy.

Let's break up.

It's been fun.

That's not it. You're wrong. Ji Young.

He thinks...

He thinks I'm his son-in-law.

Your father's waiting for you at a hotel.

What do you mean?

I don't even know my dad's face.

And he came looking for you.

He's a count from Bodantia.

Are you a kid?

I give you full marks for stopping me with such a story,

but I'm sick of you as well.

Let's end it here.

Gosh, I... I'm serious.

Take care.

He's sorry for not coming to see you sooner.

So he came to me first.

That's enough.

Even if it is him, we can't stay together.

- We can. - How?

He thinks I'm your husband.

It makes sense if he thinks we're married.

He came to my bank.

- Ho Rim. - He had a DNA test done.

What?

Does that make sense?

At first, I thought he was my wife's dad.

My wife's name is also Lee Ji Young.

I thought he was talking about my wife.

So you pretended to be his son-in-law?

You should've spoken up.

It was too late for that...

and he even had photos of us together.

If I tell him I'm married to someone else,

he might bury me.

I got scared and lost the opportunity.

No, it's okay.

He won't be my dad.

There must be a mistake.

I'm sure he's...

your wife's dad, not mine.

He is your father-in-law. Check again.

I asked my wife yesterday. He can't be her dad.

What should we do?

Leave for now. I need to think.

What if he contacts me again?

Don't ask me.

Get out. I want to be alone.

But...

Is this happening?

Dad came to see me?

When would you like to leave Korea?

Five days should do it.

Why?

You met your daughter after 35 years.

Shouldn't you spend more time with her?

We can spend time together back home.

She lived without me in this poor country for 35 years.

She must be sick of it.

She will need more time than that to prepare.

Family, friends, you know.

How long do you think she would need?

Two weeks.

- Make it one. - Yes, sir.

This place has changed a lot.

None of the old buildings remain.

I can't tell one place from the other.

Wait.

I will come back.

I will succeed and then come back.

Jang Dal Goo.

Where are you going?

I received a divine revelation.

Revelation?

This is the real paradise.

I would like you to stop getting into...

trouble with women.

Are you saying I should defy the divine will?

Sometimes, divine revelations...

change chaos into logos.

The divine will led you here?

You need to stop applying your...

prim standards to all things.

The divine prophecy is only...

This cannot be...

26th, meeting with JJ Entertainment.

Is he working late?

He hasn't called once.

I can't wait to give him the news.

Here's your food.

What's wrong with my life?

Such is my luck.

I just watch everyone else become successful...

and envy them.

(Lee Ji Young)

Ms. Lee Ji Young.

You have round eyes and a round face.

Roundy-round Ms. Lee Ji Young.

Ji Young with the smooth curves.

Same age, same name,

different in every other way.

Why are your lives so different too?

Did you get them muddled up? Did you?

My wife.

Are you sure you gave me the right one?

Are you?

Are you?

What now?

Where are you, sweetie?

Right now?

I don't know.

- What? - I'm having a drink.

Honey.

Are you with a woman?

Honey, get over here.

You don't need to know!

Hello? Hello?

This is unbelievable.

Is this how you want to play?

Fine.

Whatever.

Bravo.

That's the spirit. Let your hair down...

and have some fun.

I will. I'll slay everyone on the floor.

Let's go.

Got you.

(Bodantia is a fictional country and does not represent...)

(any Arab nation.)

Honey, I'm scared. Can't you come over?

Nothing happened.

I want to know what Dad was like.

He was handsome. He was rich.

I came on business.

Not to film a drama about a family reunion.

- I need to meet him. - Who?

My dad.

He's the snob that will convince Ji Young for me.

I apologize.

I am not your son-in-law.
