(Episode 29)

Mr. Kang,

we need to talk.

Yes, sir.

What do you want to talk about?

You did that on purpose, right?

Sorry?

You stopped me from

taking Secretary Kim back home.

You know that I have feelings for her.

I'm hurt by that.

Director, that was because of...

Please don't be like that.

People would think you are Secretary Kim's father.

Well, that's not it.

I did it because it was my job

and I also thought she'd be

more comfortable to go back with me.

I'm sorry if that upset you.

Don't be sorry.

I'm not asking for an apology.

Don't be like this

and help me out with Secretary Kim.

Why would you ask me for help?

I have no such influence on her.

I know you two are close.

You visit her house without reserve.

You're close enough to gift her a watch too.

That's not true.

I visited her house once

because her mother urged me

to have a cup of tea.

And about the watch,

I gave it to her

as a token of gratitude.

Well, I'm not trying to pick on you

for being close to her.

Anyways, if she asks something about me,

please say good things about me.

- Okay? / - Okay.

People would think

you are Secretary Kim's father.

Maybe I went overboard,

seeing how even Director Wang sensed it.

I should be careful.

Mom.

I don't want Secretary Kim to come to our house.

Can you look for a caregiver

to take care of my grandma?

The best one in the field

that can replace Secretary Kim.

Mom, please do it for me.

What in the world happened?

Did she get scolded by her father-in-law

because of Secretary Kim like last time?

(My Daughter)

The number you have dialed is unavailable at the...

She's even turned off her phone.

What is going on?

How cold-hearted.

He doesn't even try to comfort Daya

and only cares about Secretary Kim and his mother.

I should've kept that necklace

instead of giving it to Daya.

Who's calling at this hour?

It's Hongsil. What am I going to say?

Hi, Hongsil.

I'm sorry for calling you at this hour.

You weren't sleeping, were you?

Of course not.

You're calling because of Daya, aren't you?

Well,

Daya was crying over the phone

so I was wondering what happened.

She even turned her phone off.

I got worried and called you.

I'm on my way up to Daya's room

with some warm milk.

I'll talk it out with her

so don't worry and go to bed.

I'll explain it to you later.

Okay.

Something did happen.

What happened though?

Daya.

Daya, wake up and drink this warm milk.

You'll feel a bit better then.

Daya, are you crying?

Why are you crying?

Get up.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I didn't want to show you this side of me.

Daya, seriously. Gosh, here.

I'll take that necklace from Secretary Kim

and give it to you later,

so don't cry.

Mother.

I'm not doing this because of the necklace.

I want to be adored by you, Father

and Grandma but no one understands me.

Grandma always asks for Secretary Kim.

Father always sides with her too.

I'm just upset.

I'm beginning to think

if I'm less important than Secretary Kim

in this family.

Don't be ridiculous.

Mother, I even

went and apologized to her

because Father told me to.

Despite being humiliated in front of her,

Father only scolded me

for having that necklace.

It's so upsetting and hurting my pride.

Daya, I'm sorry.

I should've kept the necklace with me

instead of giving it to you.

Mother, can't we look for

another caregiver instead of Secretary Kim?

What? Look for another caregiver

who can replace Secretary Kim?

I really hate

that she has to visit our house.

Of course, I hate it too. It's uncomfortable.

But we're asking her to come

because we have no other option.

No one can calm Grandma down except for her.

Still, Mother.

Can't we give try giving

a chance to another caregiver?

Just this once.

Well, okay.

Let's give it some thought.

So don't cry, Daya.

Goodness, Daya.

- Goodness. / - Mother.

Gosh, Daya.

What should I do?

Then again, it must be upsetting for Daya

when it's uncomfortable for me too.

I don't know what else Mother will give

Secretary Kim without us knowing.

Right.

It's not a bad idea to look for one.

Mom, come here.

I've heard it from Ms. Cho downstairs.

Is it true?

Did Grandma take back the necklace from Daya?

I don't know. I've got nothing to say.

You can't take back what you gave.

Don't complain to me.

I had this weird feeling

ever since I saw that necklace around her neck.

So, why did you have to give it to Daya

without even asking Grandma?

Daya had to go through that for no reason.

Daya.

Gosh.

Look at how he's caring for his wife.

Goodness.

Where is he? Is he in Mother's room?

Where have you been?

Did you go to Mother's room?

Is she asleep?

Yes.

Honey.

Have this warm jujube tea before you go to bed.

It'll help you sleep well.

I think we're lucky with our daughter-in-law.

About Daya,

she could've gotten upset

by what Mother did to her earlier,

but she said it was all right

since it happened due to her illness.

- Did she? / - Yes.

She's very thoughtful.

She should be feeling that way.

It's not like Mother did it on purpose.

So, why did you give that necklace to her

and cause all this ruckus?

Right, it's all my fault.

I'm sorry.

By the way, I feel sorry for Secretary Kim.

She comes and goes.

I feel bad to call her for help now.

We can't hire another person

because Mother thinks she's her younger sister.

Speaking of which,

why don't we hire a professional caregiver

who can take care of her according to her symptoms?

I need to sleep for my business trip tomorrow.

Well, okay.

Mother, I'm off for my business trip.

Okay, take care.

I will.

Chair the meeting well without me

and look after your grandma.

Don't worry too much and return home safely.

You're going to Hangzhou so bring some tea back.

For my Daya's family.

My mother-in-law likes tea.

Okay. They're your priority already?

I need to be good to my wife to get through life.

That's my survival strategy.

You know that.

- What? / - Okay.

Daya, is there anything you want? I'll get it.

I don't need anything, Father.

Why even ask? Buy something pretty.

Okay.

- Bye, Mother. / - Take care.

See you all.

- Goodbye. / - Look after yourself.

You startled me.

Director Wang.

What? Were you afraid I wouldn't show up?

Were you wondering?

What are you saying?

When was I afraid and when was I wondering?

You were scanning your surroundings.

You were looking for me.

When?

I did not do that.

Do you know you think too highly of yourself?

Let's sit down.

Let's head into work amicably.

Fine.

I won't be cheeky or say anything silly.

I'll just listen to music.

What did music do wrong?

Even if you hate me, don't hate music.

I'll take a while.

Go get some tea. I'll call you when I'm done.

Yes, ma'am.

Daya asked you to look for a caregiver too?

Yes.

Her father-in-law scolded her for asking

Secretary Kim to make her some coffee.

Now she lost the necklace in front of her.

I think she felt insulted and embarrassed.

Yes, I think so.

She didn't tell her mom that

she apologized to Secretary Kim.

Daya's very thoughtful.

- Eunyeong. / - What?

Why don't you

look for a professional caregiver

and stop having Secretary Kim over?

Daya is so stressed that she even cries.

It's just not right.

I'd love to do that if I could.

My mother-in-law has only one symptom.

She gets stuck in the past and looks for her sister.

That's it.

Secretary Kim is pretending to be that sister.

Who can replace her?

Why don't you try looking for one?

Who knows?

Someone could sort out that symptom.

Can we find a caregiver who can replace her?

I'm sure you can.

I bet an expert will deal with her much better.

To be honest,

what does Secretary Kim know about dementia?

She just pretends to be Madam Park's sister.

Yes, well, that is true.

Why is an expert called an expert?

They're skilled and responsible.

They care for a patient depending on the symptom.

Yes, well, I have no choice.

I'm forced to call Secretary Kim.

I'd love to hire an expert but

where am I to find someone

who can manage my mother?

I actually asked someone for help.

Let's just wait a bit.

You did already?

Okay, good for you.

Thanks for understanding, Eunyeong.

It's fine, forget everything else.

We can't rely on Secretary Kim forever.

Mister.

Mister.

My gosh.

Hello.

Why are you here?

I recognized you right away.

I was so surprised to see you.

I was so moved.

Why were you surprised and moved?

Well...

When coincidences overlap,

people call it fate. It's meant to be.

You and I, us.

- What we have... / - What?

Why are you doing this?

I'm sorry to ask,

but are you

following me around?

No.

I live right over there.

It's really a coincidence. That's why I'm surprised.

If you don't believe me,

- I'll show you my place. / - Wait.

Excuse me.

Mister.

You saved me last time and also

bought me coffee so let me buy you one.

No thanks, I just had a coffee.

Mister, please...

Oh dear.

Are you okay?

Mister.

Please help me up.

Wait.

Mister.

Can you take me to a pharmacy?

Yes, sure.

- Hold my hand. / - Sure.

It hurts.

(Pharmacy)

Here we are.

You still helped me all the way here.

Thank you.

Sure. Take care then.

Gosh.

Oh dear, what should I do?

What now?

Oh, no.

I think I dropped my phone on the way here.

I need to call my sister to come and get me

because I'm hurt.

I'm really sorry.

Could I borrow your phone?

I apologize.

Please, sir.

I can't lose my phone.

- Here, call your phone. / - Okay.

My gosh.

Oh dear.

My phone

was in my bag all along.

Thank you.

Were you...

Did you do that on purpose to get...

Does he have to run off like that?

It's not like I'll eat him up.

What's he doing in this neighborhood?

Why do I keep

bumping into him coincidentally?

Now, it's fate.

Because I got his number.

(No. 1)

(No. 2)

(No. 3)

Based on the characteristics

of the bulgogi restaurants we've researched,

the research team came up with these.

We will have the tasting with our employees,

but they asked us to taste them first.

Now that we have the bulgogi in front of us,

it feels like we really won the prize.

I wonder what they will taste like.

I'm nervous.

Secretary Kim.

You've worked so hard for the recipe.

Let me feed you.

You've worked very hard too.

I have my chopsticks here,

so eat as much as you like.

Really?

Secretary Kim doesn't want it. Secretary Hong?

Oh. Thank you, Director Wang.

- What do you think? / - It's so good.

- It's great, isn't it? / - Yes.

I think it tastes good.

I like it.

It's perfect for the topping.

You think?

- Do you like it? / - Yes.

This is good.

Secretary Kim, what's the matter?

Why did you want to see me on the rooftop?

Gosh, I should've brought some coffee.

Director Wang, what are you doing?

Secretary Hong almost noticed

something between us because of you.

Us?

Did you just say us?

That's not it. I mean...

Yes, it is.

It's true that you like me too.

What are you talking about?

That's not true.

I just don't want a rumor about us in the company.

Who cares if there's a rumor about us?

What did you say?

If you're okay with it,

I don't care if a rumor is started.

Director Wang, please don't do this at work.

If a rumor about us spreads over the company,

things will be very hard for me here.

Director Wang, please don't this at work.

I'm begging you.

Can I do this outside the office?

It's okay to like you outside the office, right?

- If you don't stop... / - If I don't stop, what?

Are you going to hit me?

You better watch your back.

You're so cute.

I'm sure you like me too.

Doran. They say you can't hide

your sneezes or love for someone.

I know you like me.

No. That's not true. Don't flatter yourself.

Why is my heart pounding like this?

Why is my face blushing?

Kim Doran, what are you going to do?

What should I do now?

Hello, ma'am.

Hello.

Mom!

Please come in. Mother is waiting.

Okay.

Was it a long ride up here?

It's okay.

She's a nurse specialized in dementia,

Ms. Park Miok.

Hello, I'm Park Miok.

Hello.

You look young.

Are you sure you're experienced?

I worked at a sanatorium

for patients with dementia for more than five years.

I graduated from the department of nursing.

Have you seen a patient

who keeps looking for a certain person?

My mother-in-law keeps looking for

her sister who died in her 20s.

I've met a lot of patients who did the same thing.

They looked for their late husbands

or their dead children.

Like your mother-in-law, there were

a lot of patients who looked for their sisters too.

So, there are people like my mother-in-law.

Of course. So, please don't worry about it.

I've taken care of them myself.

I'm very confident about it.

I see.

Myeonghui.

Where did you hide Myeonghui?

Where are you going, Madam Park?

- Let go of me. / - Madam Park.

What should we do? She wants Myeonghui again.

- My goodness. / - Madam Park!

I'll take care of this.

My gosh. What should we do?

- Gosh, what is going on? / - Where's Myeonghui?

Let go of me. I'll go find Myeonghui.

Mother, why are you doing this again?

You wench. Where's Myeonghui?

- Where is she? / - Madam Park.

Madam Park, please don't do this.

You're the mother of that wench.

- You wench. / - Gosh, Mother.

Did you hide her?

Where did you hide Myeonghui?

Where is she?

Hongsil, you should run away.

Mom.

You wenches.

Where's Myeonghui?

Go into the room. Now.

Otherwise,

she will get more upset.

- Let's go. / - You wenches.

That concubine.

That concubine's mother and daughter.

Where are you going?

Don't you dare run away from me.

- Madam Park. / - Get off me.

Gosh, lock the door.

I'll take you to your room.

- Let go of me. / - Mom.

Are you okay?

Yes. I'm fine.

What should we do with your mother-in-law?

I can't do this. I should call Secretary Kim.

No, Mother. Please wait.

Let's wait and see.

Ms. Park will take care of her.

Let's wait and see.

Hongsil.

Are you sure she's the best nurse in the country?

Yes. That's what I heard.

Since we're all here, we should wait and see.

My goodness.

It's quiet already.

I guess Ms. Park took Grandma to her room.

Gosh, what's all this?

I've only heard of it before.

She always calls me a concubine

and calls Daya a concubine's daughter.

She called me a concubine's mother.

She thinks I'm your mom.

It's not even your sister. This isn't just right.

I know.

Where is Mother?

You should get in there and see how she's doing.

The nurse said she'd take care of it.

She asked us to leave.

Really?

But why is it so quiet? This doesn't feel right.

Gosh, what about my mother-in-law?

She just fell asleep

after having a chat with me for a while.

She really did? Are you serious?

Yes.

Mother, she's asleep now.

The whole family couldn't stop her.

How did you do this?

I asked about her sister, Myeonghui.

Then she felt relieved and started talking.

So, I kept asking

and she kept talking about her.

Then she got tired and fell asleep.

My goodness.

I can tell why you're a specialist.

Thank you so much. You did a very good job.

Now that she's asleep,

you can go get some rest too.

Yes, ma'am.

Gosh.

Thank you, Mom.

- I feel so relieved now. / - All right.

You don't have to worry about Secretary Kim now.

So just forget all about the necklace.

It's not that Madam Park hates you.

I know that.

I was just upset because of Secretary Kim.

I already forgot about it. Don't worry.

And Daya.

If you really want to be the lady of this house,

you should try to do a good job.

You might think Eunyeong has

the world at her feet,

but she went through a lot when she got married.

She had to take care of her widow mother-in-law

and assist her husband who's a businessman.

So you should act wisely

and overcome difficulties like this.

Do you know what I mean?

Okay, Mom.

I'll never make you upset again.

I'll do a good job, Mom.

Okay.

I should get going then.

Just go in.

- Drive back safely, Mom. / - Okay. Go back in.

Okay.

Get home safely, mom.

Bye!

- Please have some coffee. / - Thank you.

Your son who visited the last time

is very handsome.

I mean, he's a dentist, smart, and mature.

You must be full even without eating.

Yes.

But I still have to eat.

I envy you.

I wonder how it feels to have a son like that.

I'm so curious.

I only have two daughters.

I get happy just by looking at him

and I could spend all day with him.

That's how it feels like.

How come your husband never visits the store?

What kind of a person is he?

I have to run to the bank, so clean the store

and watch it while I'm gone.

Will do.

Does she think that I'm interested in her husband?

Or does she not have a husband?

Is she divorced?

(Porridge and Bibimbap)

This store is so clean and great!

I bet you're proud of being the secretary.

Yes, I'm very proud.

Order everything you want. I'm paying.

Why would you pay? I should be paying.

I didn't even pay you any interest.

Order everything you want. I'll buy.

No, you buy all the time.

I got paid today.

I came all the way here to buy you a meal.

Let's eat bibimbap and porridge

until we're sick of it.

Sounds good!

Let's see.

This tastes amazing.

Why are you sighing suddenly?

Did something happen at work?

So,

there's a person that a lady at work likes

but that person is of a very high rank.

His family is rich.

So, the coworker is hesitant because of that.

She wants to be with him

but it's difficult since they work together.

They also come from very different backgrounds.

Just be with him.

How can I?

It's not me!

It's my coworker, not me!

You're so obvious when you lie.

There's nothing wrong with you.

You're tall, have a good job,

great figure and a pretty face.

And your personality is...

Stop.

Just go for him if you like him.

If you can't, I can help you out.

Who is he?

I don't know.

Why are you so hesitant?

You only live once.

Just go for him if you like him already.

That's what I would do.

Just eat.

Okay.

I heard you're an expert with patients like me.

I look forward to your work.

Yes, I'll try my best, Madam Park.

Lunch is ready, Madam Park and Ms. Oh.

I'm okay now,

you may go eat.

Yes, you can go eat. The guest room is clean,

so you can rest after.

- Ms. Cho. / - Yes.

- Let's go. / - Okay, then.

How is she?

I heard she's the best.

She's not bad. Good job.

I always felt bad for Secretary Kim.

It's good, she doesn't have to suffer.

I know, that's why I hired her.

We can't call her all the time.

You may go out now, too.

I'm going to take a nap.

Okay, will do.

You can rest.

My body is so sore.

But,

I do miss Secretary Kim.

Yes, Madam Park, it's me.

Secretary Kim,

are you doing well?

Yes, how about you?

Me?

Secretary Kim,

would you like to come for dinner tonight?

I miss you and I want to talk to you.

It's okay if you're busy.

No, I have time.

I'll see you in the evening.

Yes, I'll see you soon.

Madam Park doesn't sound well.

(The next episode will continue soon.)
