[Episode 47]

How can you, as the chief, treat your employee this way?

To be honest,

I want you to leave this company on your own two feet.

Why?

Do I make you feel guilty?

What are you insinuating?

Why would I feel guilty?

I've done nothing wrong.

Really?

Then allow me to point out what you've been doing wrong.

What?

Kang Se-na.

You watch and see how I deal with this.

You started the marketing competition...

because of Jin Song-ah, right?

And aren't you expecting her to take home...

the prize money?

Hey, don't think of it like that.

There's no guarantee that Song-ah will win.

Jin Song-ah proved herself to be quite capable...

during the previous hiring exams.

I admit she's talented.

I hope she does well again.

I'm sure she'll seize this opportunity.

Director.

Jin Song-ah from product development is here to see you.

Tell her to come inside.

Please sit down.

What brings you here?

This is my proposal.

It was my understanding...

that Chief Kang was to submit all of the proposals.

Why are you the only one submitting it late?

There was a mix-up in between.

What sort of mix-up?

Jin Song-ah,

if this concerns work, please be frank about it.

I found my proposal in the garbage.

Was Chief Kang behind it?

I didn't see her do it, so I can't be sure of that.

I'm here now to ensure that...

my proposal is given the same opportunity.

Please give me your fair consideration.

There are so many documents...!

Tell Jin Song-ah to organize these by the end of the day.

All of this?

But the day is almost over.

Order her to work late.

Ah... yes.

You think you can humiliate me with your proposal?

Let's see how long you can hang on.

You couldn't organize that even if you stayed up all night.

And it's not like we can help her...

I guess you'll have to do it by yourself.

Oh, my stomach...

I'm having trouble digesting the watermelon I ate earlier...

Mom! Mom, Mom, Mom!

Mom!

Why, why, why?

What's going on?

My stomach hurts. What is it?

Hurry up and tell me.

Mom, Se-na's mother-in-law is in our neighborhood!

What?

Her Royal Highness is here in our neighborhood?

Maybe she found out that we live here?

But we put on such a great act!

Do you think she figured us out?

I don't know.

My stomach aches. I need to go now.

So this is Bong's Chicken!

Is she here?

Hey, hurry up!

Why isn't anyone here?

Hello?

Is this place open?

Hello?

I'm about to explode!

Mrs. Oh, I'll chop the radish now.

Jung-ok?

Hwa-kyung!

How did you get here?

You've gotten more beautiful!

Do you remember everything now?

Why?

Did I lose my memories before?

Looks like your condition's gotten worse.

My hair, my hair!

Sit down, Jung-ok.

Do you live here?

Yea.

Mrs. Oh owns this place,

and we rent a room from her.

How did you end up like this?

I remember that you used to smile brightly like a flower,

but now you look like a wild chrysanthemum...

withering in the frost.

I'm home.

Madam, you've arrived?

Yea.

Do-joon, it must be difficult for you.

Not in the very least.

It's not bad at all.

Oh, Madam.

Would you like some chicken?

Mrs. Oh's chicken is really good!

You knock yourself out.

Hold onto this for now.

This is all the money I have on me right now.

Why won't you take it?

My arm hurts!

Can I accept it from her?

Madam, thank you for the gesture.

Please put the money away.

You should accept help when you really need it.

Here, don't refuse.

Why did Se-na have to lie?

Dear Father.

I'm going to lose it...

Here.

If you don't take it, I'm going to get angry.

Since I know you live here now,

I'll come by often.

I have to go back to take care of my grandchild.

Your grandchild...?

Oh my, Hwa-kyung, are you a grandmother now?

It certainly wasn't planned.

It's just my luck to end up with a daughter-in-law like...

My daughter-in-law's aunt is even more outrageous than she is!

She claims to own a restaurant in New York,

but she seems like she'd work in a chicken house like this.

Since I know where you live,

I'll be here more often.

Yea, okay.

Let's see each other often.

Then I'll see you again.

Okay.

Madam, goodbye.

Yea, yea.

Mom!

Mrs. Oh was there all along?

[Moon Hyun-soo]

Is something the matter?

The office gets rather stuffy.

And you're probably in a crummy mood because of Jin Song-ah.

I guess the rumors travel fast.

Jin Song-ah got the better of me today.

I was stopping by the product development office...

when I overheard the two of you talking.

Relax.

I'm only worried about you, Kang Se-na.

I'm thankful.

I never imagined that anyone in the company would care about me.

I'm being sincere.

Why are you good to me?

I think it's a waste.

What is?

You don't seem to know...

how good you really are inside.

I want to help you realize that.

I'm so hungry.

Should we grab some dinner?

Yes, Mr. Hong. What is it?

Yes, Director.

Other than the recent clashes with Jin Song-ah,

Chief Kang hasn't been very active.

Does she meet with anyone else?

No, not to my knowledge...

I understand.

You should eat something better for dinner.

What made you choose hamburgers?

It reminds me of my time in America.

I understand.

When I was in America, I craved kimchi stew.

But now that I'm here, I'm starting to crave hamburgers.

What are you doing?

Your lips are small and delicate,

so you should flatten out your hamburgers first.

Don't you want it?

Kang Se-na.

I thought you wanted to eat hamburgers.

It's odd.

When I look at you,

I'm reminded of someone else.

Who might that be?

Your first love?

If you think that I resemble your first love,

it must mean that you have feelings for me, too.

I didn't mean to offend you.

Watch what you say to me!

I'm the daughter-in-law of the man you serve.

[Chungho Nice Water/ Marketing Strategy by Jin Song-ah]

[Proven method to increase revenue]

I'm fine.

You're not okay at all!

Jin Song-ah, are you an idiot?

Why do you slave away at the risk of harming yourself?

Don't worry about me.

I can take care of myself.

If you had trouble digesting watermelon earlier,

shouldn't you lay off of it for a while?

Earlier, I passed it completely through.

Big Sis.

What's your relationship to that lady earlier?

Hwa-kyung is a high school friend of mine.

When we were young, we used to live together.

She was the landlord's daughter.

So you used to rent back then, too?

My mom used to work for Hwa-kyung.

So you were the daughter of the maid in her house?

Yea.

I can tell right away that she's mean.

I bet she abused you often, right?

Hwa-kyung has a temper,

but she's a good person inside.

She's loyal and compassionate.

Ah, really?

Then I bet she treats her daughter-in-law pretty well?

Boss, I thought you didn't see her when she came by earlier?

Yea, that's right.

I was fixing the sink at the time.

Yea, she's right.

All we were able to hear was her voice.

But you seem to describe her pretty well.

Hey, how would someone like me know a woman...

who's married to an owner of a conglomerate?

How did you know Hwa-kyung was married to a chairman?

She sounded rather cocky,

so I figured her to be a wife of someone important.

Really?

Yes.

Wow! That's amazing!

When I was in school, I used to roll my pencil...

to get the answers to multiple choice questions.

Wow.

Now that you mention it, I must get my low IQ from you.

You're so quick to blame your faults on me.

Are you sleepy?

I'm going inside to get some rest.

Big Sis.

Yea, what is it?

Why have you been going to bed so early these days?

The radishes aren't going to chop themselves...

Oh, sorry.

I'll chop the radishes later.

Goodness...

But I need the radishes chopped.

I'll go and clean the restaurant.

Yea, okay. Keep it up.

Se-na's mother-in-law seems to be close with Jung-ok,

and I fear that she's going to be dropping in more frequently.

If Se-na finds out about this,

there's no telling how she'll react.

What are we going to do?

This is what they mean by a small world.

Maybe we should go ahead and tell her about this now?

Right.

If Se-na finds out about this,

we'll be the first ones she'll blame.

Why...?

What's wrong?

My stomach...

I told you to lay off the watermelon!

It's not the watermelon.

Keeping it in earlier gave me indigestion.

Are you okay?

Don't touch me.

My stomach feels like an active volcano right now.

Your wife got home late,

but don't you care where I've been?

Chief Kang, I assume that you were working late as always.

Woo-joo's father!

Are you going to keep this up?

Chief Kang.

We're married on paper,

but we agreed to separate our lifestyles.

What do you think you're doing?

I gave birth to your child.

Stop looking at me like that!

You're trampling all over my pride!

I'm a woman, too.

I don't want to talk about this, so get out.

This is why I hate you, Chief Kang!

You don't care about anyone else but yourself!

That's a form of abuse, too!

You don't seem to realize it,

but you're the most selfish person I know.

I'm tempted...

Why won't you stop me from leaving you!

Woo-joo, don't cry.

Why are you drinking at this time?

Did you fight with Woo-joo's mother?

Would you like to join me?

So your marriage is nothing but a contractual agreement?

I think I'm drunk.

I can't believe I'm telling you this.

Don't worry.

I'll keep it a secret from your family.

My brother doesn't know, either.

I wouldn't imagine that he'd know.

If they knew, your family would be worried.

If anything bothers you, feel free to talk to me about it.

I may not be able to help, but I can be there to listen.

Is it someone's birthday today?

What's with the seaweed soup on such a hot day?

Goodness...

How can you forget your own birthday?

Oh, my!

Is it my birthday today?

Oh, no!

Even I forgot about it.

I'm sorry, Mom.

It's okay, son.

I forgot about it as well.

I wish Song-ah was here with us.

She had to work all night.

Do-joon, you should treat Ra-bong out to dinner.

Mom, stop it...

Goodness.

This isn't the time to play coy.

She's the one who remembered your mother's birthday.

You two are making me laugh.

My goodness...

Big Sis, dig in before it gets cold.

Try the beef.

It's Korean beef.

Thank you, Mrs. Oh.

Jin Song-ah, fighting!

I'm always cheering you on.

I'm here to support you.

Did you work all night?

I've organized all of the documents.

You're much more tenacious than I thought.

You must be dying to beat me.

I'm not trying to beat you.

I'm simply doing my job.

Does saying that make you feel better about yourself?

You're an insecure wreck!

I've got nothing to be insecure about.

And I'm not afraid of you.

I wonder how long you'll remain confident.

With the marketing competition,

Jin Song-ah's idea has been chosen as the winner.

Please give me your preference between...

Kang Se-na's celebrity marketing program...

and Jin Song-ah's proposal.

If we can sign up the popular celebrities,

we should go with that campaign.

I've been supporting Chief Kang's idea since day one.

Celebrity marketing has its own risks.

If the image of the celebrity is ever tarnished,

it will directly affect our company.

Based on the news I've received,

Jin Song-ah's proposal was chosen as the winner,

but Chief Kang's idea is under consideration as well.

And both proposals are clashing as we speak.

Mr. Hong.

Yes, Chief.

What are you talking about?

I guess I'm describing an epic fight between a tiger and a dragon.

How can you compare me, the department chief,

to a lowly employee?

I'm sorry, Chief.

I realize how ridiculous that sounds.

Be careful from now on.

Do you have anything more to say to me?

Should I get you a cup of coffee?

Or maybe empty out your garbage?

Forget it.

Leave me.

Yea, excuse me.

Se-na, are you doing well?

Don't worry about me and start focusing on your own life.

How long are you going to remain at the bottom rung of society?

I can't do anything with you holding me back!

Did they find out?

Find out about what?

Your mother-in-law came snooping around at my place.

What?

Did she see you there?

Of course I hid from her!

But your mother-in-law turns out to be close with the tenants...

I have living in my spare room.

I've hidden from her this time,

but I'm nervous because there's no telling when she'll return.

I'm so woried that I'm getting constipated.

Aunt.

Why would you worry about that?

Just get rid of your tenants immediately!

Hey! I can't do that!

After you left, these people have become like family to me.

Unbelievable.

If you won't do it, I'll get rid of them myself.

She's no help to me at all.

Get up right now!

What the...?

You're going to startle Woo-joo.

Are you a newborn yourself?

How can you eat and sleep like a child?

They say that you become child-like with age.

You should love me like you love Woo-joo.

Honey, I'm tired to death!

Give me my dinner!

Then you change his diaper.

Hey, hey!

I left it behind at the base of the tree~

I remember lying down beside my mother~

I'm wondering if this is the last time I'll hear your song.

Mom.

Song-ah.

I missed you, even if was only for a day.

Mom, happy birthday!

Did you have seaweed soup this morning?

Yea.

Mrs. Oh cooked for all of us, and I had three bowls.

Really?

She had such an appetite,

that I was starting to suspect her of being pregnant.

Why are you teasing me?

I'm just trying to make you laugh.

Thank you, Mrs. Oh.

Don't mention it.

We're no different than family.

Happy birthday.

Congratulations.

Stay healthy, Big Sister.

Thanks.

That looks delicious.

Is this cheesecake?

Cut it, cut it.

It looks great!

Kang Se-na,

what are you doing here?

Aunt, you rented out the room to these people?

Do you even know who these people are?

Huh?

Se-na?

What's going on?

You know Song-ah?

How can you do this to me?

If you have nowhere else to go, why didn't you go under the bridge?

What are you doing inside of my home?

Beat it.

Get out of my house right now!

Hey, Se-na!

What's the matter with you?
