Original subtitles

I had somewhere I wanted to take you so I told you to come by.

let's go

Is this the best you have?

yes, it's the best. This is hand embroidered silk.

Please show me the winter blankets.

yes, just a moment

ok

this is the winter blanket

ai goo, it's so soft

now what do we get for the wedding gift blankets?

uh, do you also have noo bi (???) blankets?

yes we do

my hanbok and

grandfather and uncle. this will do okay?

when she comes back next time, we'll take these

yes, I understand

and your hanbok, you two come back and pick them out yourselves

it's me

I'm at the hanbok store with your aunt

at the hanbok shop?

why?

your getting fitted for hanboks too?

please put my aunt on the phone

it's young min

did he say to put me on?

yes

it's me

aunt

I hear you're at the hanbok shop

do you already need to get the hanboks?

to do this all of a sudden will be crazy so I'm picking them out ahead of time

I need to meet with Mi Soo today. Will you be long?

we're already done with our errands

then aunt, I need to meet with her so go on home alone

got it

here

so did you pick out the hanboks?

yes

I don't know if you are being burdened a lot because of my aunt

my mom will figure things out

the officemate designed our wedding invitation

take a look

what do you think?

there's only one invitation like this in the world

I like it

Mi Soo, you write the wording inside the invitation

what if I don't do a good job?

that's okay. Just write whatever feels comfortable to you

why did Young Ok tell you to come by?

we went to the bedding store and the hanbok store

together?

yes. she picked out the wedding gift bedding

what did she say to get?

comforter, sheets, winter blankets, etc...

she said that's what you're supposed to do

what about at the hanbok store?

hanboks for grandfather, aunt and uncle

ai goo

you determined your date and where you will go for your honeymoon, so what else is left to do?

on the grooms side, we have to get the wedding rings and the jewelry for the bride

and on the bride's side, there is the dowry and furnishings, that sort of stuff

do things without burdening each other

it sounded like the dowry was a bit of a burden

because we have so many relatives

they can just send each of us a pair of socks so why would it be such a burden?

don't let them fuss and you tell them that a pair of socks is enough

even if I tell them that it'll be difficult for them to listen

if it's going to be a burden for them, how can we ask them to do that?

tell them they don't have to go all out

-thank you -good bye. come again

(sign says "Loans")

Young Ok

yes father

have a seat

how do you think the other household's finances are?

don't worry. I told them exactly what to get so they will do a good job

call Mi Soo's mother and tell her I'd like to meet with her

what?

hurry

I mean, why do you need to meet with Soo Ja dad?

that kind of discussion should be amongst in-laws. why do you want to complicate things by talking to her yourself?

hurry and call her

hey, soo ja

my father says he'd like to see you. You can come right?

father, right now?

it doesn't have to be right now

he says it doesn't have to be right now

when do you want to come?

yesterday they wanted to see Mi Soo so why do they want to see you today? Is it because of the wedding gifts?

I don't know

since you're there today, go and tell them this

that you can't do what they told you to do

I will take care of it

when the kids get home, please help get dinner ready

i got it

who is it?

it's me

she's here

next time, tell me what you want instead of telling your daughter's friend yourself

it's something an elder needs to say that's why

come on in

how have you been?

I'm sorry that I had to bring you over here

no, that's okay

go have a seat

you sit too

I wanted to see you to talk about the dowry/wedding gifts

I told him those matters should be discussed between inlaws but he insists

it's difficult for her to speak to you father and it's hard to speak freely

how can she talk about something when it's difficult?

for this wedding, I would like for us to just get rings and not have to worry about any other items

I mean, father, what are you talking about? don't get anything else?

on the bride's side, the wedding gifts and on ours the bridal jewelry... I would just like us to get rings and not do anything else

the rings are necessary so we should do those

father, what kind of wedding is like that in this world?

there are customs and traditions to follow

long ago, we didn't have any of that and we still did it

do you think this is long ago?

father, that makes no sense

hey, soo ja, why are you just sitting there?

we may not be able to provide much with our means, but we will do the best we can

there's no need for that

don't do that and let's just do it comfortably

just getting married is enough

I can't do it that way father

it's not like I have two children. I can't do something that makes no sense

that kind of talk should be coming from this side

you have nothing to misunderstand. it's not like one lives happily because they get a lot of stuff

since that's not the case, I'm saying lets both do things comfortably, that's all

father, why are you being like this all of a sudden?

what kind of wedding is that?

that makes no sense father

it's enough that Young Min and Mi Soo live well

what more do you need?

let's do it that way

I can't do it that way

do what I say

wh, wh, what did he say?

he said just do rings and forget everything else?

yes

ai goo... if that's the case, it's good for us!

but does that even make sense?

so I said, that while we can't provide the best things, we would do our best and he said don't even do that

wow.. that grandfather is really cool

it would be difficult for an elder to say such things

what did Young Ok say?

she was hopping up and down upset

I'm sure she was more than hopping mad

she told us to fulfill all those outrageous wedding gift requests

but since the elder said that she couldn't do anything about it

that may be neither here nor there but we are saved

that may be but I don't know if we really should follow what he says

she might be too resentful about it and how can we just send her as she is

and I feel that Young Ok will eventually take measures to get back at us

but still if he says don't do it are we still going to push our way on him? and that's coming from an elder too

do as grandfather wants mom

I mean... how, how can he just say get the rings only

it's not as if they are starving people. If they are able to feed themselves, how can they go along with things like this?

how can we have a wedding without a dowry and weddings gifts?

why, why all of a sudden does he say such crazy things? why?

oh, oh, I think I won't be able to live dealing with my father's antics

I mean, how can he treat me like a fool in front of Soo Ja, why?

ai goo, ai goo... I can't live like this, I can't

grandfather said that?

yes

he asked mom over today and told her that we should only provide wedding rings

grandfather asked yesterday how the wedding preparations were going...

I feel that your aunt will be very upset

she had ideas about what she wanted and the dowry too

so I came to alert you so that you could help ease your aunt's feelings

my aunt would've been really shocked

my mom said

we may not be able to fulfill everything that your aunt wants

but doing what we can seems most comfortable

then that's going against what grandfather wants

then what can we do?

your aunt's feelings must be really hurt

honey!

are you sitting there falling asleep?

what do you mean sleeping?

I was just tired so I closed my eyes for second

what brings you here?

did I come somewhere I can't?

why do you look like you've seen someone you can't?

oh gosh.. you say such things when you speak

is asking what brings you by something to get mad about?

something must have happened at home again

what did father-in-law say to you again?

oh, oh, I'm going to explode

my father's gone senile

there's no way he's in his right mind

what's the matter now?

how can he humiliate me that way in front of Soo Ja?

he said to forget the dowry and wedding gifts and just exchange rings

does that even make any sense?

I mean, are we marrying off someone who's not worthy?

how can he say not to provide anything to us?

and everything we need to give them we're providing?

does that make any sense?!? he's saying both parties don't need to do anything

then what's wrong with that? it's a wash anyway

if you don't know anything then just keep your mouth shut

I feel like throwing myself into the river and killing myself right now

oh goodness...

what are you doing?

nothing

I mean, what is he thinking by saying don't do anything?

why aren't you answering your phone?

oh, I told you before. there's a friend who wants to borrow money

why don't you just tell him you don't have any. why are you letting him still bother you?

oh, of course I told him many times

oh, why isn't he answering his phone?

Mr. Go

since you're not answering the phone, I'm really worried

there isn't anything wrong is there?

now, it's a text?

this isn't going to work

I need to take the battery out of my phone

honey

buy me some meat

since I'm so upset, I can't do a thing

oh, ok, I'll buy you some, I'll buy you some

oh, huh? what happened?

this can't be

omo, omo, what if he's gotten into an accident?

no, no, don't even think of such things

but then why is his phone turned off?

give me a shot

how can a person who's going to drive, drink?

I got it

ai goo, look at my state

I raised a nephew and I don't even get anything for it and marry him off. does that make any sense?

how hard it was to raise him

did you raise him with the hopes to receive treasures?

it may be strange for father-in-law to say don't give us anything but

you are also strange

one should at least get that much for raising a child

if it was Seo Young, before any of these words came out her eyes would've been popping out of her head

why are you bringing her up again?

do you think providing things makes a person?

Mi Soo is a better person

what do you mean she is better? what's better about her?

grandfather, it's dad

are you eating dinner?

we're eating ja jang myun (black bean sauce noodles)

why are you eating ja jang myun?

I'm home

is aunt not here?

looks like she went out

where?

I don't know

she didn't say anything to you?

she was upset and so she just left

but what did you do about dinner?

I'm just going to make myself some ramen

isn't ja jang myun better than ramen?

it's okay grandfather

dad, have some of mine

it's okay. go on and eat

I heard from Mi Soo earlier

why did you do that grandfather?

there is a saying that when you send three daughters off to marriage, you lose everything

by any chance, wasn't Mi Soo a bit concerned?

when I went to the bank, I saw Mi Soo's mother signing up for a loan

after seeing that, I said for both households to not do anything

if she gets a loan, how will they repay it?

there isn't anyone who makes much money in that household

Mi Soo's mom says that while grandfather may have told them that

how can they send off their daughter without anything?

you tell them, it doesn't matter to us

what's going on?

how am I to know what happened?

did I make some sort of mistake?

Oh, I'm going crazy!

oh, really why is he doing this?

why's he doing this?

a father shouldn't be like that

he can't treat me that way

even after my brother left, I stuck around

and have been taking care of my father all this time

I've been his maid all along

but how can he disregard me like this

is it too much to ask for me to get what I deserve from Soo Ja?

Did you have three or four shots of soju?

being that drunk after such few shots is too much

I feel disgust for my father right now

I hate him

I hate my father

how have you been getting along honey?

I'm sorry honey. To be honest, I don't hear a word that you're saying right now.

I only have thoughts of Shin Ja in my mind right now

In my heart, there are two Go Dae Sung's fighting each other

Answer the phone. Don't you dare answer the phone! End it right here!

it's a real mess right now honey

oh, oh, oh... be careful

if you think about it, I'm also a very pitiful person

you're doing well

you left the house to go drinking?

father

how can you treat me this way?

did I not raise Young Min that I can't even play mother-in-law?

why did you say to forget about the wedding gifts and dowry?

why didn't you even discuss it with me and just do whatever you want?

why, father, do you take pleasure in making me look foolish in front of Soo Ja?

honey, why are you doing this?

am I really your daughter?

am I really Young Ok, your daughter that has been living with you and caring for you all this time?

father!

You are not supposed to do that!

I don't know if you're trying to be a cool father-in-law or whatever but

your daughter is looking like a fool to Soo Ja

what's so great about being a mother-in-law that you're making all this fuss?

parents who have a son or parents who have a daughter are all the same people

put her to bed

yes, father-in-law. Honey, let's go inside

ask anyone in this world

whether having a son-in-law or a daughter-in-law is the same or not

-try and be quiet -what are you doing?

take your jacket off

it's such a pitiful situation

ai goo.. what is this

if you look at the big picture, it's really not a big deal

just because you get those gifts, are you going to be rich?

it's big to me

I'll give you that money then that will be fine right?

why doesn't anyone know how I feel?

I also have money

that's not the point

oh, what's that?

it's honey water

Your aunt

has a lot of greed and her temper is worse than most but

but saying those things in front of her in-law was too much

I'm sure you're also going through a lot

but marriage is tough for everyone

thank you

why isn't your dad out yet?

Here I come

wow this breakfast didn't take you too long to set up right?

no, it didn't

thank you. I will enjoy it

hey hyun woo

later when I go to the concert, I think I will be running into Soo Jin's mother

if she asks about you two, what should I say?

let's see

as I'm going to study abroad, to keep meeting up with her seems counterproductive

what does Soo Jin say?

she said let's continue to meet often until I leave

she says since we don't know much about each other that meeting often would help with that

if she's saying that then you can't say you don't want to get to know her

It seems Soo Jin really likes you

especially since even though you say you're going to study abroad, she still wants to meet with you

Soo Jin's feelings may be important but so are yours

it won't work if Soo Jin's the only one that has feelings

if I look at the overall picture, it looks like there are many things that are great about her

but I don't have any special feelings for her yet

but it's not like I have bad feelings for her when we do meet

is my son less cool than I imagined?

it's true

I'm just an ordinary guy

I'm going to go by Mi Sun's work today

can't you just rest?

I'm leisurely getting to know more about the food business

do you know how hard it is to be in the food business?

chain restaurants aren't as difficult they say

who's going to open a food business?

oh, I am mom

well, what happened to your job and you are talking about this?

mom, let me tell you after Shin Bi's dad has left for work

honey, go on and go to work

We can tell her together

no, honey

you're going to be late. Hurry up and leave

mother-in-law, I shall return

yes, hurry and go

I'll call you later

whatever it is, tell me

mom

I quit work

why would you quit a job just like that?

it's not that I quit but to put it simply, I was fired

why would they fire you? what happened?

you know that the economy is not great right now

it's worse for korean airlines

so they had to lay some people off and reorganize

so you got laid off?

it's okay mom

so that's why you want to run a business?

what is this? what kind of foolishness is this?

it's not foolishness mom

I said to come at lunch time so why did you come now?

I did come at lunchtime

where were you?

I was observing from outside how many customers you had coming in

wow, our sister-in-law is much savvier than I thought

we have a lot of customers here right?

yes

oh boss

welcome

how do you do

this is my sister-in-law who I was speaking to you about earlier

aahhh... Mi Sun, please bring over some potato stew

she should try some

yes

please have a seat

pablo! -yes

please make a special potato stew for my sister-in-law to eat

I got it

make it special chef

okay!

this soup is the potato stew's staple

you need to keep this nice and hot all the time. it's very important.

this soup is what brings out the flavor in the potato stew

the other items you cook separately?

yes

Should we go reading signs again today?

I know all the ones on this street

then next time we should compete reading signs

no we can't. I don't have enough confidence to compete

by any chance do you know where I can borrow a DVD around here?

do you want to watch a movie?

I wanted to watch an Argentina film

the subtitles on the other movies go by so fast that it's hard for me to read them

oh that's right

this way

we don't have any Argentina films

oh, what do we do?

then do you have Spain movies? Spanish?

yes, just a moment

yes, we did good, we did good

are you borrowing it Mi Sun?

why are you so happy Mi Sun?

oh, why am I so happy?

this movie is very good

this is a good movie?

Pablo Gonacia (?) This is really good.

we'll take this one

gim bap, boon juhn

dang jang, gim chi ji gae (boong juhn, boong juhn) - I'm sorry

dang jang ji gae, bu dae ji gae

gam ja tang

ahn kyung (glasses)

jae won han wee won - I'm sorry

pardon us

I got it, I got it.. okay!

what are you doing?

you're home? -mmm

I saw Soo Jin's mom

hey, Soo Jin's mom says that up til now Soo Jin has never liked anyone before

Are you listening to what I'm saying?

oh, yes

but she said that she does like you

so she says that if she likes you even more that she's even thinking about following you to America

follow me?

yes. she asked where you were thinking of going and I mentioned New York, she said she could find a job there since they have a division in New York

she never said anything like that to me

oh, my son doesn't have much sense to notice such things than I gave you credit for

Yoon Mi

finish up. you need to pack your school bag

just a little bit longer

who could it be? ai goo

hello?

Mi Sun

this movie is really good

I thought that if you watched it you'd like it too so I called you

You already finished watching the movie?

then lend it to me

I cried

the movie is really good

when the female star died, my eyes welled up with tears

then I will bring it to you

sleep well

mom

who was that?

oh

mom's coworker

I told you there was a foreigner

the one who bought you the headband?

yeah

you're right

why is that person calling you at night?

why can't he call?

you also get calls from your friends at night

Shin Ja

I can erase your number from my phone

but I cannot erase your number from my heart

knowing that you are calling me

but not being able to answer your call...

is breaking my heart

that's why I said he's married

you said he even brought you home to our door

he must have taken one look at our house and said to himself

"oh, there's not much more to get out of this" and left that's all

I told you that's not it

you don't know how nice of a person he is. There's absolutely no way he can be that

then how come he hasn't answered your phone calls all day long huh?

you called more than 50 times right?

but hey

did you get attached to him after all this time?

oh you, tsk, tsk, tsk, you weak person you

what's happened?
