Original subtitles

The title of the book is really great. Construction, Site and the People. I felt that I was able to know better what is involved in building. What message were you trying to convey to your readers?

the feeling is that people and construction are part of each other

that we are able to create a life where we build... that is because we have people

so I try to design buildings where people are the focus

that we don't forget the people that we are building for

DId you miss him? Do you miss him? You still have feelings left for him?

Yes, I do, still

You've been in Paris for a year. You didn't find any good person there?

I wasn't able to meet any

then do you want to meet some people here?

I don't want to meet people that way

if not that way, then where will you meet someone?

On the street

Seo Young!

Just leave me alone

fine, I got it, got it

anyway, I'm having trouble picking out the outfit to wear to the 50th anniversary party. Would you like to go with me to pick one out?

It's a hassle

Isn't Hyun Woo going to school?

He says he'll go after he drinks his coffee. Mother, would you like some coffee?

let's do that

oh, I haven't seen these coffee cups before. Where did you get them?

I brought them

really? I haven't seen those before

they must be cups that you like

yes

mother -in-law

mmm...

thank you

here's the coffee

thank you

do you remember these cups?

oh! These are ones that I bought you

you brought them?

Yes, of course I brought them. I was so impressed then

we drove all the way to Tae Il

and we had coffee at a pretty little cafe

.

and I said "they're so pretty" as I looked at these cups and forgot all about them

but then you left these coffee cups in front of my house

I was so shocked

You don't know how I bugged them to sell me these cups as they kept saying that they're the only ones who use these

and you won't know how impressed I was either

so you brought these here to show me that

because they are my unforgettable first coffee cups

when we drink coffee, let's always use these cups

definitely

oh, what do you want to do today?

I'll organize the room and if I have time I'll read some news

You'll be alright alone right?

then what are you going to do? Can you stay with me all the time?

What does mother do when she's by herself?

She reads books and also watches DVDs

I don't think you have to worry about her too much

Okay

I'll be late if we continue this

my legs won't move thinking about leaving you and going to school

Husband, work hard at your studies

Mother, I'm going to school

oh okay

Mother, please take good care of Mi Soo

Aren't you supposed to say to Mi Soo "take good care of my mother?"

Mi Soo, take good care of my mom

-I'm going -okay

I'll see you later

shall I remove your cup?

yes, please do

I guess getting used to the presence of a daughter-in-law can be a bit difficult at times

he could've just left but why did you say for me to take good care you ?

and also, Hyun Woo and I always drank coffee together

I guess I'm not quite used to you two drinking coffee by yourselves yet

I am sorry

I did it without much thought. The next time I'll keep that in mind

This is just something that I realized today

if I didn't tell you anything about how I felt, then you wouldn't know anything

yes

Please let me know

okay. Go on up

yes

Hello?

yes, we had a good honeymoon

yes it was fun

yes for a week

I'm sorry to be bothering you right after you got back from your honeymoon

when are you going to do the interview

there isn't too much time left

I can wait a couple more days

If you were my office employee then I wouldn't let this go but since you're a freelancer, I can't do much

oh, thank you. I'll do it next week

who are you going to choose this time?

how often are they going to reair Director Han's interview?

shall I ask the network?

why are you curious?

whenever he's on the tv, we get a lot of phone calls

from friends, fans and followers

don't give it much thought. It's a hassle

you need a lot of exposure so that you will sell a lot of books

it's not just the books that sell well but the person also gets famous

the concern is you'll do interviews but the book won't sell

Director Han, aren't I right?

yes

you didn't write the book to make money

it's a book we thought would create lots of interviews

It's Mura

Woman's Monthly?

Director Han, it's Woman's Monthly on the line

Yes, this is Han Young Min

what did you think about?

I think it's because of the video

video?

his picture came out really well on the book

I think it's because he is handsome. Nowadays women like books written by handsome men

Is Han Young Min good looking?

I think my office would be a good location

yes

you should do the interview outside director. There's too much going on in here

let this go this time

even though he's director it's still a difficult situation, even with receiving royalties

please tell me how much

it's 18,000 won

yes

the Mrs. is leaving

okay

Mother, are you going out?

yes. I'll be back

see you later

what time do you prepare dinner?

I'm going to start on it after I finish the ironing

please call me when you're ready

okay

oh my goodness

omo, welcome

what's going on

it's been a long time

have you been well ahjumma?

oh, when did you get here?

it's been a few days

she came for the 50th anniversary of our school

oh, is that so

it's nice to see you

it's been over a year right?

yes

I was planning on calling you anyway but we happened to run into each other

you were? why?

I was going to say thank you for coming to Hyun Woo's wedding

oh of course I would go. no need to thank me

At the next meeting at Jang Mi, I heard that you were going to pay

I thought that is what was expected of me

congratulations on the wedding

yes, thank you

I'll come visit once

yes, come visit

are you going to stay long?

her father dragged her here even though she said she didn't want to come

so she'll probably leave soon

why? you should rest here a bit and then go

mom, does that ahjumma know that her daughter-in-law is the daughter of our housekeeper?

she doesn't know. I didn't tell her. I didn't find out that was her daughter until the wedding so how could I say such a thing then?

ah, you.. are you really planning on going to visit her house?

-so occasionally we're going to be cutting up 50 radishes to make radish kimchi? -yes

since we made some last time it's been about 10 days. so every 10 days we have to make this

oh, our Mi Sun needs to do well

mom

oh, we're over here

I brought the containers

hello

oh, you're here. So you're going to make the ____ on Friday?

yes Pablo will be taking care of that

do you think this is enough?

we will know after we open

we don't know how many customers are going to come

that's right. you have to see how much goes out in one day

hey, hey, you better keep track of this. you two aren't just in business. We are in business too

hey, hey, tu ferais mieux de garder une trace de cela. vous deux ne sont pas seulement dans les affaires. Nous sommes en affaires aussi

let's get going

mom, I'll get the gakdugi tomorrow. we're really late today

oh, yes, we're still making it anyway

then we'll be going

mom, we want to go too

ok, let's go together

hurry and get to work

yes, thank you. work hard

good bye

I think I will be dead tomorrow

why?

from the crack of dawn, I have to prepare things and wait for delivery and make things

you're not dead but alive. we're starting the potato stew restaurant that we'd dreamt of

that's right. Let's saw we are alive and work very hard

dad, how come you aren't giving me allowance? give me some allowance

Goh son-in-law didn't bring me any money that's why

well, for the time being why don't you just give me the money father

Goh son-in-law has never done this before. There's no word from him

whether he's coming today or tomorrow.. how many days has it been now?

maybe he stole all the money from the store and left town

I'm sure something has come up

how much longer are we going to wait? You should just tell him to hurry up and bring it

You're here

where did this man go?

he hasn't been able to come in for a few days

why?

He is really sick

even when I told him to go to the hospital, he wouldn't

he just didn't sound very good

where, where is he sick?

I think he has the flu

but I think it's a really tough flu

ho, honey

why am I your honey?

how did you know to come here?

why did you come?

what is this?

you can't even get over a flu on your own? What is this?

get up. I said get up!

oh no, I'm fine

what do you mean fine? you call this fine?

my goodness, I can't even bear to look at this. I said, get up

aigoo... get up

what happened?

I'm sorry father

where are you ill?

he looked like he was about to die so I dragged him here

looks like he had the flu for several days

oh then you should've taken him to the hospital first

we're just getting back from the hospital

take him inside and put him to bed, hurry

they said it's the flu?

yes

hurry and lay down

aigoo, you should be living well on your own. This is all you can manage?

what are you doing?

fool

I'm going to kick him out after he gets well

how did you find out?

I went to the store to get the money and they said that he'd been out for days

so you went to see him?

yes

even if my feelings had changed for him, I couldn't just leave him like that

feed him something

I said once he's better, I'm kicking him out

do whatever you want

dad

you're home?

did you have fun playing?

yes. Dad, granduncle is here

but he is sick

he's sick?

uncle is sick?

he looked like he was a bum so I brought him here

where does he hurt?

he has the flu. I don't know how many days he's been sick with it but he didn't even have one thing to drink at home

I suppose since he's by himself and has noone to care for him when he's sick, so it can be like that

is he in the room?

he's probably asleep

Seo Young is in town

she came to attend the 50th anniversary celebration at the university. She hasn't gotten married yet

did they say that she had gone to Paris?

she went there right after her engagement got cancelled

Hyun Woo, she said that since she heard you got married, she'd come over to visit

we're not close enough of friends for her to coming to visit

that may be the case between you two but to me she's my friend's daughter

and sometimes she'd join us when we'd go out to lunch so she's different than other friend's kids

and she keeps up with everyone else

what was she doing in Paris? Was she studying?

I don't know. She was a teacher at the university so I guess she could be studying

I don't think it's because she had to study that she left but more that she left because her engagement got cancelled

It makes me uncomfortable that your mother knows Min Seo Young

she doesn't have any real reason to see her so it's okay

she said she was going to come visit

she's really someone I don't want to remember

do you think that she might have changed? to a better person?

hearing you say that she's someone you don't want to remember

still riles me up

even thinking about it now, there are so many reasons to be angry at her

do you think she'll really come visit?

it might just be her being polite

don't worry

it's my sister

hi sis

Mi Soo, we're going to open day after tomorrow. You're going to come to the grand opening right?

of course we'll be there

6PM day after tomorrow. Our whole family's going to come to have dinner together

Mi Soo, this is so strange

that I am able to run a potato stew place

it seems like a dream to me

this place looks really pretty and very cozy

yes. 6PM day after tomorrow okay?

please bring over more rice

please send over to table 8 more rice please

Mi Sun, here's the seafood stew

please hand me some spoons

Hey Mi Sun! We're here

oh mom, grandmother, over here

welcome

grandmother you came?

-please sit -congratulations

yes, thank you. please sit

-oh brother-in-law, welcome

congratulations

-thank you -thank you

sit down, sit, sit

aiyoo, it's the grand opening today. it must be nice having so many customers

that's right

I was so nervous that they wouldn't have enough people all day

one more potato stew here please

okay! hurry and start eating

yes, let's eat, eat. It looks delicious

it's really delicious!

unni, we'll enjoy the food

hey, this isn't all free. Only the fried rice is free

aigoo! you're scary, scary

we got it, we got it

please eat

have a lot of guest arrived?

yes, come on in

aigoo, aigoo, what a great situation, situation

I know that they were only able to do this because their boss invested in them but how great it must be that they're able to run their own business

Yoon Mi, take Yoon Ji and go brush your teeth and go to bed

yes, we got it grandmother

Mom, shall we have a drink?

should we? we should! Let's do that, let's. I feel a little tired but on a day like this, we should celebrate shouldn't we?

hey, hey, radish kimchi (gakdugi) will be enough to accompany the drinks

it smells delicious but it smells too much like the potato stew

what do we do? I think the car's going to smell like potato stew for several days

we can't do anything about it

Mi Sun and Pablo look really good together right?

yes. They look happy together

Mom... I feel like I can now stretch my legs and live

Mom, who would've thought that she would've gotten to this point

I thought she would have always lived without enough

I know what you mean. But hey, shouldn't we be getting those two married off?

We should have them marry and then he can live with us here

yes. I think I need to think about that some too

At first, him being a foreigner was not appealing to me and then the fact that Mi Sun is older than him was not appealing to me either

and the fact that he was a bachelor (never been married) did not appeal to me either

nothing appealed to me

what is there to not appeal to you?

the fact that he's a foreigner might have some weight but

what's wrong with him being younger? and what's wrong with him being a bacholer?

if anything, Pablo just rolled into Mi Sun's life like a lucky squash

that's why I didn't like it

she's older

and she has two kids

so how could he be that warm to her

hey, but isn't it enough that they like each other?

Pablo is so good to Mi Sun

even that much is such a huge blessing

so let's just stretch our legs long and sleep... as we diligently make them their gakdugi (radish kimchi)

let's do that

Congratulations

Me too. Congratulations

oh, I'm tired

Pablo

Mom sent this to me

30 years ago

when mom left Korea for Argentina

it's a gold ring that my paternal grandmother got for her

really

she's held onto this for all this time?

that's why it has a lot of markings

no, it doesn't

to me, it's better than a 3 carat diamond

really

thank you for saying it that way

I would like to get married this Christma Eve

We've set up our potato stew restaurant now and I wish it would snow then but even if it doesn't snow, I still would like to get married on Christmas Eve

Do I only need to say "Okay"?

yes

ok

oh it's so tiring

you gave alot of effort

go on up and rest

so now I'm done with everything that has to do with the school right?

that's right. It's all done

You acted like you were going to leave the day after everything was over, but you're not going to do that right?

I'm not sure

I'll go up

alright, rest

are you going somewhere?

yes

can you bring me some tea mom?

where are you going?
