Take a seat, Secretary Kim.

Yes.

Have you thought about it?

Yes, Ms. Oh. However,

I don't think it's right for me

to move into your house.

Why not? You don't think you can do it?

But I'll be there anytime you need me.

But

my mother-in-law might go crazy at night.

I wouldn't know when she'd make a fuss again.

I wouldn't have asked you

if her symptom comes at a fixed time.

Also, I can't just ask you to

come to us every time.

I'm not that shameless.

Ms. Oh. I work for Chairman Wang and

Director Wang at the company.

It'll be uncomfortable for me to live with them.

So, even if I don't live with her,

you don't need to worry about Madam Park.

Regardless of time, I'll be there to help you.

Whether it's late at night or early in the morning.

Really?

Whether it's late at night or early in the morning,

you'd come at any time

when my mother-in-law seeks for you?

Yes, Ms. Oh.

Thank you very much.

I was so worried that

you would say no.

Oh, my.

Then I'll tell my whole family

that you've agreed to become

my mother-in-law's sister.

We made a promise, okay?

Yes.

Thank you very much.

I'll pay you thoroughly.

Yes.

- Drink. / - Yes.

What?

What did you ask Secretary Kim for?

Honey, please allow it.

No one else can control Mother

except for Secretary Kim.

Neither of us can do it.

No one else in the world can do it for us.

So, please listen to me for just this once.

I beg you.

I don't think I can handle it.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

- Secretary Kim. / - Yes.

Chairman Wang is looking for you. You should go.

Yes.

- What's going on? / - What?

Ms. Oh is here too. She rarely visits the company.

Why did they call Secretary Kim?

How would I know? Get back to your work.

Yes, sir.

Secretary Kim.

Is my wife telling the truth?

Yes.

If you feel uncomfortable about anything,

you can tell me now.

No.

Madam Park has been very nice to me until now.

I'm grateful for her.

I'll do anything to help her

and make her feel better.

As long as you allow it

and make sure it doesn't affect my work.

It's true. I never forced her.

Right, Secretary Kim?

Yes.

So, Chairman Wang.

Let's do that then Secretary Kim.

I really appreciate your help.

I can't thank you enough.

Not at all, sir.

If it's too much, tell me at any time.

Don't just endure it.

Yes, I will do that.

Thank you. You too, Secretary Kim.

Thank you to both of you.

You sure are an experienced professional.

Do you like it, Grandmother?

Yes, it's pretty.

My room looks brighter.

Thanks, Daya.

I'm glad that you like it.

I'll bring bright flowers from now on.

Flowers in the house bring luck.

Now that you've gifted me a lucky flower,

I should give you a gift too.

- A gift? / - Yes.

Here.

Here, pick anything you like.

Grandma, do you mean it?

Let's see.

Which one would look good on Daya?

That's too big for your age.

For Daya...

Oh, right. This one should be nice.

This one's cute.

This will look good on you. Isn't it cute?

It's pretty, Grandma.

Thank you.

That big diamond necklace was the prettiest.

Grandma's belongings will be mine eventually.

And mother's belongings too.

I love it.

I really wanted that necklace though.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Hong, you surprised me.

What were you thinking so deeply about?

I called you so many times.

I'm sorry.

I was thinking about something.

I heard it from Chief Secretary Yang.

I heard Ms. Oh came because of Madam Park.

Chief Secretary Yang and I will help you from now on,

so don't feel so burdened with work.

We should help each other.

Thank you.

I want to do a good job in both my work

and helping Madam Park out.

You're unexpectedly greedy, you know that?

I know you want to place first for the contest too.

How did you know?

By the way, have you thought about any idea?

We should make a porridge that's creative.

Secretary Hong.

Young people these days

like to choose their toppings

of their preference, whether it's pizza or sandwich.

I've thought about

applying that to porridges.

Customers will choose toppings that they favor.

Goodness, that's awesome.

Porridge with customized toppings?

That's brilliant.

Really?

Our porridge goes well with traditional food,

so we should think about that too.

That leads to my next idea.

How about bulgogi?

It's what Koreans love the most.

Porridge topped with bulgogi.

Good, I love it.

Not just ordinary bulgogi.

Our special fiery-taste bulgogi.

That sounds great.

I have a feeling

that this will work out.

Secretary Kim, let's try it right away today.

Okay.

Let's win first place with this idea.

Let's do it.

- Shall we go? / - Okay.

Chives.

King oyster mushrooms.

Button mushrooms.

Director Wang.

I thought you left work a while ago.

I went to the marketing team to get some data.

When will you leave work then?

I have a meeting, so I'll leave around that time.

Don't mind me and leave work.

But I thought you left work

a while ago.

We went grocery shopping.

We are going to prepare for the contest

in the kitchen.

I see, the two of you in the kitchen.

Okay, good luck.

I'm done marinating the meat.

If we stir-fry the marinated meat with oil

and pour wine, it'll catch fire.

Perhaps.

I've never made this kind of dish before.

I'm a bit worried about its taste.

I know. It's my first time too.

I'll have a go now.

I'll do it.

Let me do this.

You have to coat the pan with oil

and stir-fry the meat first.

That's too much.

Should I throw some away?

Secretary Hong, let's just try as it is.

I think if we fry the meat instead of stir-frying,

it might become crisp and nice.

I'll put the meat in then.

Do you hear the sound?

It sounds delicious.

Awesome.

All right, I'm going to pour in some wine now.

- Water. / - What should we do?

Water?

Water?

What's going on?

A fire has broke out in the kitchen.

- A fire in the kitchen? / - Yes.

- Did you call 911? / - Yes, I just did.

Kitchen?

Kitchen.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim.

Director Wang.

Secretary Hong, are you okay?

Where's Secretary Kim? What happened to her?

Director Wang.

Secretary Kim, are you not hurt?

Yes, I'm fine.

I'm sorry for causing a ruckus.

What's all this? You've surprised us all.

I'm sorry, sir.

It's all because of me. I was being greedy.

I was stir-frying the wine and poured the meat...

I mean, I was stir-frying the meat

and poured too much wine.

The flames blew up all of a sudden.

But the fire alarming system got activated

and turned on the sprinklers.

That's how it all happened.

Anyway,

I'm glad you two are safe.

I'm sorry, sir.

I'm sorry, sir.

Be careful from now on.

Okay.

Okay.

Hi, Suhyeon.

Where are you?

I'm about to head there now.

I'm calling you beforehand

in case you get flustered later.

Is something wrong?

My dad wants to see you.

He's coming here soon.

Don't be surprised when you arrive.

Okay.

No.

I shouldn't be like this.

Suhyeon.

I think we should see each other without him first.

I have something to tell you.

What do you mean?

Do you want to stop seeing me?

If we continue our relationship like this,

it'll hurt

both of our feelings later.

Why all of a sudden though?

Did I make a mistake?

That's not it.

You didn't make any mistake.

It's not your fault.

I know you're a good person.

But I don't think I'm ready for marriage yet.

How can you say that now?

This has been arranged by the elders.

Weren't we going for marriage from the start?

If you were going to be like this,

you should've told me so on our first date.

I thought it'd work out if I tried.

I'm so sorry.

What?

Try?

I've never heard

anything absurd like this in my entire life.

You really...

I think

I'll get mad at you if we continue.

I don't want to show you such a side of me.

I'll be on my way out.

Secretary Kim is really nice.

How thankful.

To be honest, no woman these days

would want to spend time with an old lady.

Mother said she'd pay her enough.

She can earn an extra sum of money

and win the chairman's favor at the same time.

Isn't it good for her too?

Don't you think so?

That's right,

but you have to be careful not to upset her.

If she decides to stop, things will get difficult.

Goodness.

Grandma, what are those flowers?

I got them for her.

Grandma, did you break the vase?

Where's Myeonghui?

I want to give her these.

Where did you take her?

Get away, Daya!

Run away. Get out of here.

You can't do this, Grandma.

Don't come this way. Stop her.

Grandma, stop it.

- Calm down. / - Myeonghui.

Where did you take her?

Grandma, what's wrong with you?

How dare you put your hands on me?

Grandma, you shouldn't hit people with flowers.

Oh dear. Ma'am.

- My goodness. / - Ma'am.

Bring her back!

Mother!

Stop it.

You evil witches! Get out of here!

Calm down, Grandma.

I want those witches gone.

Get out of here, you evil things.

Let go of me.

- Are you okay, Mother? / - Yes. Oh dear.

Hello, Ms. Oh.

Right now?

Okay, I'll come right over. Bye.

Hey. Where are you going?

Gosh.

That evil brat.

She treats me worse than the neighbor's dog.

She came home looking like a drenched rat.

Where is she going now in such a rush?

Mom.

Doran left in that strange man's car again.

What? Again?

What?

The chairman gave his permission?

Yes. He seems to think that I'm the only one

who can calm Madam Park down.

That may be true

but you're working all day and at all night.

It'll be difficult for you.

A lot of people have

two or three jobs these days.

Are you

doing this for the money?

Because of your mom and sister?

It's about the money too,

but like you know,

Madam Park was really nice to me.

She was really considerate.

That's why even though it'll be a bit of work,

if I can do something to put her at ease,

I'd like to help.

I think you'll be having a harder time.

You have to fetch me then take me back home.

It's fine.

This is my job.

And

driving you wherever

is a pleasure to me.

It's not tiring at all.

Really?

Yes, really.

To tell you the truth,

riding in the car with you

and chatting with you

alleviates my stress.

It feels like a drive. It's so nice.

It is?

Yes, it is.

Thank you.

No, Myeonghui.

Where are you going?

I need to go to the toilet.

I'll come too.

I can manage on my own.

What's this, Geumbyeong?

I was afraid that while I'm asleep,

the evil wench and her daughter

might take you away, so I tied us together.

I want to protect you.

Geumbyeong, I'll be fine.

And the lady and pretty girl outside

aren't bad people.

No, Myeonghui, you can't trust them.

If we let our guard down,

they'll steal our livers like wolves.

Geumbyeong.

I'm home.

Welcome back. You're late.

You're back.

Were you with Suhyeon again tonight?

Well.

Why are you all here?

Daya and Iryuk too? Is something wrong?

Is Grandma unwell again?

Father.

I won't lose Myeonghui this time.

Your concubine's scheming

to keep us apart and kill us both.

You can't let that happen.

Oh dear.

- Mother. / - My goodness.

Why do you keep calling me that?

Father, I can't stand them.

Can you tell them to leave?

If not, buy a house for me and Myeonghui.

You can live with that gold digger and her spawn.

Geumbyeong, I told you not to get angry.

Of course.

Okay. I won't.

Let's go.

If you dare mistreat Myeonghui,

I'll kill you all.

Okay? You're all scumbags.

Let's go.

Myeonghui, I'll stand guard outside.

Don't worry and take your time

and freshen up before coming out.

Okay, Geumbyeong.

This is bad.

They can't even sleep.

Ms. Oh, I'll stay with Madam Park tonight.

Don't worry. Everyone should go to bed.

Hey.

Secretary Kim said she'll stay with Mother.

We can stop worrying and go to bed.

Iryuk, take Daya upstairs.

Daya, let's go.

Sleep well, mother and father.

You too.

You're going to let Secretary Kim stay the night?

Yes, we asked her to care for your grandma

full-time.

What do you mean full-time?

I can't stand all of you.

Why have you all gathered?

Myeonghui, let's go to bed.

Okay, Geumbyeong.

Is she going to live with us now?

We want her to but she refused.

She'll just come over when we need her

like tonight.

Make sure not to inconvenience her

at work.

Go to bed now.

I know that you'll feel uncomfortable,

but we can't help it.

She's the only one who can control your grandma.

You should try to get used to this, okay?

I'm going to bed.

Gosh, I'm so tired.

I'm exhausted. This is unbelievable.

I'm so tired.

Secretary Kim

sleeping over at our house?

Why does she keep coming closer to me?

It'll be a huge burden on Doran.

Even if it's a hut that's about to fall,

it's best to sleep in one's own home.

Gosh.

What?

Why are you sleeping in my room?

Geumbyeong.

Secretary Kim.

Doran.

What is going on?

Well.

You will

take care of me like this from now on?

Yes.

Whenever you're looking for your sister, Myeonghui,

I'll be her for you.

So, please don't worry.

I see.

Okay.

I might

give you a hard time.

I'm worried.

No, Madam Park. It's not hard at all.

You care about me

like your real sister.

Sometimes I even wish I were

your real sister.

I guess

we were sisters

in our past lives.

I can't believe

that I think you're my sister, Myeonghui.

Thank you for staying with me

without being scared of me.

It's okay, Madam Park.

Secretary Kim.

Make yourself at home and eat a lot.

Okay.

Secretary Kim.

Have some bulgogi.

It's not too salty. Everyone loves it.

It's really good.

Gosh.

Secretary Kim loves this marinated abalone.

Here. Eat up.

- You should have some. / - Okay.

- Eat a lot. / - Gosh.

You're like a new member of our family. It's so great.

Right, Daeryuk?

What?

Yes.

What?

It's like the tail wagging the dog.

Gosh.

She's just a secretary from our company.

But they are treating her like treasure.

This is ridiculous.

Are you going to work, Director Wang?

I'll drive Secretary Kim to work.

It's okay. I'll drive her on my way to work.

I see. Would that be okay?

Yes. We don't need to drive two cars.

Okay.

Director Wang, I can take a bus.

Why would you do that?

We're heading to the same place.

Let's go.

But I can't go to work in his car.

Just go.

Okay. I'll see you later, Mr. Kang.

Have a good day.

- Secretary Kim, let's go. / - Okay.

Mr. Kang.

What are you looking at with such a sad face?

- Did I do that? / - Yes.

You look like a dad marrying his daughter off.

That's absurd.

I guess it's hard for Secretary Kim to get by.

It seems she's doing this for money.

She's young enough to receive her parents' care.

I feel bad for her.

I heard everything.

Thank you for helping my grandmother out.

It's okay.

I'm doing this because I want to.

If you have

any problem at work because of my grandmother,

just tell me any time.

Okay. I will.

You were soaked because of the sprinkler yesterday.

Are you all right?

I'm okay.

I'm sorry, Director Wang.

The weather is so nice.

What season do you like?

I like fall.

I like spring.

When flowers begin to bloom.

Oh, really?

I like spring, too.

I also like fall.

I guess we have one thing in common.

We both like spring.

Pardon?

Thank you for driving me home, Director Wang.

Take your time and get ready. I'll wait.

It's okay. I'll take the bus.

We're going to the same office.

Don't waste the bus fare.

You can head there with me.

That's a little...

I can't go to work in your car.

I've decided to take care of Madam Park,

but other employees would get the wrong idea

if they see me in your car.

If that's what you're worried,

I'll let you off where no one's around.

Still, people would get the wrong idea.

I don't want to cause any misunderstanding.

Just go, Director Wang.

I'll take the bus to work.

Okay.

I just wanted to drive you to work,

but if you don't want it...

Okay. I'll see you at the office later.

Thank you.

- Secretary Kim. / - Director Wang.

What are you doing here?

You know what?

I got a flat tire on the way.

A flat tire.

A flat tire?

(My Only One)

You jerk! How dare you

hit on a girl who's as young as your daughter?

Don't you dare have your eyes on this necklace.

- Especially you. / - It's like I lost.

- Are you all right? / - Freddie.

Today, you should do what I tell you to. Okay?

Did mother go to an amusement park?

I'll have fun with Grandma there.

Director Wang keeps staring at Doran.

Now, I want to date and marry a woman that I like.
