(Episode 27)

Secretary Kim.

I heard the whole thing.

I'm sorry.

I apologize.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be angry.

My father told me to say sorry to you.

I apologize one more time.

Chairman Wang did?

He insisted to come, but I came instead.

I'm all right.

I feel fine.

You didn't have to come all the way here.

Secretary Kim.

Why don't we grab a warm cup of tea?

No, let's go have dinner.

Good food will make you feel better.

I'm really okay.

You're not okay at all.

Let's go somewhere to make you feel better.

I'm really okay. You can go.

If I just go, I have to write an apology to Dad.

Do you want that to happen?

A written apology?

Stop joking.

I'm not. I'm serious.

My father, Chairman Wang Jinguk,

wants to make sure that I make you feel better.

Do you want to talk to my father?

Don't do that.

Follow me.

Director Wang, what are you doing?

Secretary Kim.

You like running, don't you?

Hold on, Director Wang.

Director Wang. Wait.

Right here.

Harder.

Get him. Good job.

I could've done better.

You should play one more round to relieve stress.

No, I'm fine now.

I don't even have any energy left.

Really?

Yes. Thank you for your concern.

I feel better now.

You should go home.

Why am I so hungry?

I didn't have dinner.

I don't have energy after this game.

What if I faint?

Secretary Kim, can you buy me a meal.

Secretary Kim. Grandma treats you well and

it looks like you think you're someone special.

"Daya"?

Am I your friend?

Do you think we're on the same level?

How could she treat someone like that?

Doran must be hurt.

(Kim Doran)

Director Wang.

What's wrong?

I should write a journal when I go home tonight.

A journal?

I had fun playing games with Doran today.

Then we had noodles at a cart bar.

It looks like Doran loves noodles.

Her noodles disappeared after a few mouthfuls.

Noodles don't taste good if you eat it in small bites.

A bite should be this big at least.

Yet, Doran looked

cute and adorable.

She looked like a baby rabbit.

I'll stop the nonsense and eat.

Yes, Mr. Kang.

Are you okay, Secretary Kim?

I called because I was worried about you.

I'm okay. I'm really okay.

I'm sorry I put you in trouble.

No, why would I be in trouble?

Don't worry about me.

Secretary Kim.

Don't let this bring you down.

Stay confident and strong like you are now.

Only then will no one look down on you.

Yes.

I'll keep that in mind, Mr. Kang.

Was it Mr. Kang?

Yes. He must've been worried about me.

It seems like he thinks about you a lot.

Really?

Yes.

I can't even like you because I'm scared of him.

If I mistreat you in any way,

he wouldn't let me get away with it.

No way.

We're here already.

Director Wang. Thank you.

I know you're here to make me feel better.

I feel much better after playing those game

and getting a bowl of warm soup.

Thank you very much.

I hope

you forget about what happened today.

I know it won't be easy.

My whole family appreciates your help.

No one thinks of you that way.

Director Wang. I would never neglect Madam Park.

You wouldn't have to worry about that.

Bye.

That's not what I meant.

I thought we had a progress after dinner.

Secretary Kim.

Goodnight.

Did she just smile?

She did.

She even waved her hand.

Did you call me, Ms. Oh?

Whose driver are you, Mr. Kang?

Secretary Kim's? Is she the one who pays you?

What do you mean, Ms. Oh?

I'm bringing this up because it seems

like you're mistaken.

I know you two are close

but why would you get involved

and cause this trouble.

I thought Ms. Jang should show her some respect

as she is important to Madam Park.

Oh, my.

I know it was my daughter-in-law's fault,

but you shouldn't get involved.

I'm the one to scold if I have to.

I'm sorry.

From now on, you shouldn't get involved in things.

Keep your mouth and ears closed.

Just do your job, okay?

Yes, I will remember that.

You may leave.

I'm sorry.

Mom, why are you so harsh on him?

As far as I know,

he hasn't done anything wrong.

You're hurting his feelings for nothing.

Those subordinates will be disobedient later

if you're too easy on them.

You have to make clear

what's not right.

Mom, this isn't the case.

I also think Daya is at fault.

- What? / - Grandma always said

we should be fair so that they listen to us.

I'm going upstairs.

Goodness.

What's wrong with him too?

Seriously.

Thinking back,

Doran smiled at me so many times today.

Is she finally being attracted by my charm?

Daya,

where did you learn such a behavior?

I'm so disappointed in you.

Get out.

What if Father really hates me?

Goodness.

Daya, you've got to eat something.

You haven't had anything since yesterday's dinner.

No, I'll eat at home.

I have to get home before Father goes to work.

Daya.

I've met your mother-in-law

and talked about you moving out.

- What? / - Discuss with Iryuk

and move out to a new house.

The apartment in Cheongdam is empty now.

It just needs to be repaired.

You only need to wait for a week.

I've never said I'd move out.

I won't move out even if I die.

You cry and struggle so much like this,

so why don't you want to move out?

Have you forgotten about what I said?

It's my dream to succeed my mother-in-law

and become the madam of Bom and Food.

Daya.

If I move out like this, how will it make me look?

Mom, I'll stay there even if it's tough.

I'll be adored.

So, don't ever talk about that again.

Goodness, Daya.

What should I do with her?

Gosh.

Mother, I'm home.

Oh, hey.

I'm glad you're here. Welcome.

Where's Iryuk?

I think he's still sleeping.

I haven't said anything to him yet

because it'll only cause a ruckus.

Do you know what I mean?

Yes.

I told him that you went to your house

because something happened to your aunt.

He wasn't suspicious, was he?

I talked it over with him on the phone last night.

I see. Good job.

There's nothing good about him finding out.

Where is Father? Has he gone to work?

No, not yet.

He's in the study. Do you want to see him?

Yes, I think I should.

Okay, that's a good idea.

Go in and greet him.

Okay.

Father, it was thoughtless of me.

I'm sorry for causing a trouble.

You know

how to admit to your mistake honestly.

That's my daughter-in-law.

I'll be careful not to make it happen again.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, I've scolded you

because I adore you like my real child.

I wouldn't have done it if you had been a stranger.

I'm sorry for scolding you.

Don't keep it to heart.

Okay, Father. Thank you.

I've heard this from your mother-in-law.

I also think

it's better for you to move out.

It's a little hectic with my mother being sick,

so you should move out with Iryuk.

No, Father.

I'm happier to live with

you, Grandma, and Mother here.

Is that right?

Moving out isn't what I want.

Whether you move out or live here,

don't feel too burdened about us

and make yourself comfortable.

Okay, Father.

I'll go make delicious vegetable juice for you.

Daya.

Yes?

I'd like you

to go apologize to Secretary Kim.

What?

She comes here day and night

to help your sick grandmother-in-law.

We should be grateful to her.

No one will willingly do that.

She isn't someone

we hired for chores and errands.

So,

I want you to apologize and make up with her.

That way, Secretary Kim will come to take care of

your grandmother-in-law with a good heart.

What is he talking about? Apologize?

She's already upset, so why does he want her

to apologize instead of appeasing her?

Even though we need Secretary Kim,

doesn't he care one bit about her pride?

Goodness.

- Gosh. / - Goodness gracious.

What are you doing here?

Are you overhearing the chairman?

Of course not.

He asked me for some green tea a while ago.

Mother.

Well, Daya.

Let's talk together first.

Come here.

Mother.

Goodness, what is going on?

Chairman.

Don't cry, Daya.

It breaks my heart.

Mother, I'm sorry.

Daya,

you don't have to go and see Secretary Kim.

Don't apologize if you don't want to.

You don't have to.

But Father wants me to.

How can I not?

I'll defend you.

I'll argue with him if I must,

so you don't have to apologize to her.

No, please don't do that.

It'll only put you in trouble

and Father will be disappointed in me again.

Don't do that.

Daya.

Mother.

I was raised without a dad.

I was so happy

to be adored by Father after getting married.

So, I want to be adored

by Father in the future too.

Daya.

Mother, I'll go upstairs.

Daya.

All my husband cares about is his mom.

He doesn't think about Daya's pride at all.

This is disappointing.

Poor Daya.

When did you come back?

Just now.

How is your aunt?

She's fine now.

Let's sleep a little more, Daya.

Come here.

Hello.

Why did you want to see me?

I came here

to apologize.

Apologize?

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I apologize.

You don't have to.

Making coffee wasn't a big deal.

I don't know why it turned out like this.

Anyway,

I apologized to you.

- Pardon? / - I came and apologized.

I want you to tell my father-in-law that

clearly and properly.

Okay, I will.

That's all then.

I'll get going first.

What was that?

Did the chairman tell her to apologize?

Gosh, it suits you so well.

It makes your face look brighter.

Is it comfortable?

Of course. I'm wearing the same thing.

It's so easy to move around in.

It's so comfortable.

It really is. I'll take it.

Okay then. Thank you.

Take this as well.

What's this?

We're handing out gifts

to celebrate our 30th anniversary.

It's only for those who purchase from our new line.

Really?

You got new clothes and a gift. You got lucky.

I did.

- Thank you. / - Have a nice day.

Come again.

Goodbye.

Welcome. Oh.

Hello, Ms. Na.

Is everything okay?

Of course.

It's gotten cold. Would you like some tea?

- I'd like that. / - Okay.

She's quick-witted and hard-working.

She's not too bad.

Mom.

Gorae, what are you doing here?

Your wallet.

- You forgot it again. / - Silly me.

- Was it on the table? / - Yes.

- Oh dear. / - Do we have a customer?

Is it not a customer?

He's my son.

Gorae, she's our new employee.

Oh, hello.

Please take good care of my mom.

Yes.

You bet I will.

I have to go.

Okay. Take care. See you.

He's a dentist.

He owns Gorae Dental Clinic.

Does he have his own dental clinic?

He's so young.

He's young but he's good.

You should visit him if you need to be treated.

Of course, I'll go to him.

Congratulations to those who won

the New Product Idea Competition.

You all did so well.

The winners will work in groups

with the staff from the Planning Team

to develop recipes until the release date.

We asked your teams for cooperation

so don't worry

and focus on developing new recipes.

- Yes, sir. / - Yes, sir.

Shall we decide who will work with whom?

Yes, that was already done by the department.

It wasn't planned but us three are in a group.

I'm very pleased to be in your group.

I'm pleased to work with you and Secretary Kim.

Secretary Kim, you don't look too happy.

Are you upset that we're in a team?

No, sir.

There's no preference when it's about work.

What should we do next?

How could we not like to work with you?

One word from you and everything works out.

No one will dare oppose us.

That's not true.

We can't release anything if we don't have a recipe.

Winning the competition isn't a guarantee.

So don't rely on me

and work hard on coming up with the best recipe.

Yes, sir.

Let's start by visiting famous bulgogi restaurants.

- Yes, sir. / - Yes, sir.

Let's work hard

and release a great bulgogi porridge.

One, two, three...

- Good luck. / - Good luck.

Mr. Kang, have some warm and sweet coffee.

Thank you.

Mr. Kang.

Do you know where Ms. Jang went?

Where did she go?

To see Secretary Kim.

What? Secretary Kim?

You're so startled. She didn't go to fight.

The chairman scolded her and told her to apologize.

That's where she went.

I see.

Chairman Wang and Madam Park

are so fair and never look down on their staff.

That's why their staff stay with them for a long time.

Now, Secretary Kim can come whenever she wants to.

Of course.

The chairman is so good to her.

Welcome back, Ms. Jang.

She's upset about being forced to apologize.

She has no manners.

Did you see her?

Did everything go well?

Yes. I apologized and left right away.

Okay. Did you cry?

- No. / - Good for you.

My husband made you upset but don't cry over it.

Why would you cry because of Secretary Kim?

Pride is something only your equal can hurt,

so yours is still intact.

Yes, Mother.

But, don't tell your mom.

She'll bite her tongue and pass out if she knew.

Don't worry about that.

Okay.

Hold out your hands, Daya.

Mother.

This necklace is...

Yes.

Grandma gave it to Secretary Kim when she lapsed.

I was going to give it to you or Daeryuk's wife,

but who knows whom Daeryuk will marry?

But still,

this is Grandma's.

I told you.

She doesn't know that it's gone.

But still.

Why should I keep it when it will become yours?

The reason I'm giving it to you

is because I accept you as my daughter-in-law.

Mother.

Let me put it on you.

Let's see.

It's beautiful. You look so elegant.

It suits you so well.

Mother, isn't this too extravagant for me?

No, not at all.

It looks so lovely.

Gosh, remember that

you can't ever lose that. It's worth a house.

- Really? / - Yes.

Only a few women in Korea have such a necklace.

Thanks for giving me something so precious.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome. Don't keep it hidden.

Wear it every day.

Yes, Mother.

I'm going to the department store,

would you like to join me?

Let's buy an outfit and bag

that suits the necklace.

Today might be difficult. I'm meeting friends.

Let's go shopping together on another day.

Okay then.

Catch up with your friends

and eat some nice food.

Forget about everything that upset you.

Yes, Mother.

My goodness.

That's so pretty.

I've never seen such a big diamond necklace before.

Look at it sparkle.

My mother said that

only a few women in Korea

have a necklace like this.

Good for you.

I'm so jealous.

Don't you feel worried or scared while wearing it?

What if you lose it?

It's worth as much as a house,

so I was going to keep it in the closet.

But my mother said I shouldn't.

She told me to wear it every day

because I look good in it.

That's so cool of your mother-in-law.

She is so cool.

It sparkles.

- Director Wang. / - Doran.

What are you doing here?

Why would I be sitting at the bus stop?

I'm waiting for the bus.

I commute by subway and bus these days.

I save money and my legs get stronger.

I think it's good in many ways.

Is that so?

Hello, Youngsik.

Is everyone waiting?

I'll be right there. I'm sorry.

You can start without me.

Okay.

Doran, I'm sorry.

I don't think I can go home with you tonight.

I forgot that I made plans with my friends.

Why would you be sorry?

It's okay. You should go.

I'll wait and watch you take the bus though.

This is my bus.

You should go.

What was that?

What should I have

for dinner tonight?

We have fresh long-legged octopuses.

A pack of them only costs five dollars.

Whoever gets here first will get to buy it.

It's first come, first served.

- Don't push me. / - Give me that.

Gosh, move over a little bit.

This is mine.

I picked it up first. What are you talking about?

Gosh, excuse me.

I picked this first.

Look. It's in my hand now.

So this is mine.

My goodness.

She's being ridiculous.

Where did I see her?

Doran must be pretty now.

I guess she's all grown-up now.

Who is she?

Are you sure you're not him?

I think you're the one who took the baby.

That's right. It's her.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Why are you doing this to me?

I picked up this octopus first.

No, that's not it.

Do you know Dongcheol?

Kim Dongcheol.

- Who? / - Do you know Dongcheol?

You met him in front of a subway station before.

You talked about

Doran and a baby to my husband.

- Doran? / - Yes.

You said my husband took the baby.

You said those things to my husband that day.

I think you are mistaken.

I'm not him. You got the wrong person.

Let's go.

She pretended not to know me back then.

I'm sure you said something about Doran.

My husband told me

Doran's parents are dead.

Do you know anything about Doran's relatives?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I think you have the wrong person.

What?

That's not her?

I wish I could find Doran's relatives.

All right. She abandoned her own parents.

Why would she want to find her relatives?

Gosh, what's wrong with my life?

That's right. It's her.

I think I saw her at the subway station.

Why would she ask me about Doran's relatives?

My gosh, is she the woman

who raised Doran?

She can ask her husband about it though.

Why would she ask me that?

I don't want Doran

to find out who her dad is

for the rest of her life.

Ma'am, I'm so sorry,

but please forget everything about

Doran and me.

All right.

I should forget about it.

Whether she raised Doran or not,

it's none of my business.

I'm going to

stay out of this. I don't know anything.

Are you serious?

Is that why you paid me back?

Yes. I don't owe you anything now.

All right. I'm so proud of you, Doran.

I think your dad is taking care of you from above.

You won the contest

and paid off your debts.

Right. I think so too.

Anyway, Doran,

you've worked really hard so far.

I haven't seen anyone who works as hard as you.

Hey, what are you talking about?

You also work hard. You work part-time.

And you lent me your hard-earned money.

Thank you so much.

Stop talking about it. People would think

I lent you like 50,000 dollars.

It means more than 50,000 dollars,

I mean, more than 500,000 dollars to me.

- I will never forget it. / - Okay. All right.

Is someone here?

Grandma, Doran is here.

What? Doran?

- Hello, ma'am. / - Hi, Doran.

Even hearing her name

makes my knees knock together.

Grandma.

Doran got you a little something.

What? My gosh.

It's nothing.

I bought long underwear for you.

It will keep you warm in winter.

Thank you for your thoughtful gift.

Let's have dinner together.

I'll cook stir-fried octopus for you.

Stir-fried octopus? That sounds great.

Thank you.
