Mother, did you call for me?

Yes, come here and have a seat.

Sure.

It's been a long time, right?

Pardon?

Ever since you came to our house after the marriage,

did we have time to talk to each other?

Whenever I tried, you fainted and disappeared.

I'm sorry, Mother.

You do know that it's wrong too, right?

We live in the same house.

How come it's so hard to see you around?

I have to go to work

and something personal came up unexpectedly.

From now on, I'll come straight home.

I don't want to hear your excuses.

It'd be better for you to quit work

and take care of the household and Grandma.

Quit my job?

Why not? Why do you look so surprised?

Were you going to keep working?

No, but it's a bit sudden.

You fainted while preparing breakfast

and made me look like an evil mother-in-law.

Why do you think

we permitted you to marry Daeryuk?

It's because of Grandma.

Every time Grandma loses her mind,

you show up after she plucks out my hair.

What's the use?

Mother, from now on,

I'll do my best in

taking care of the housework and Grandma.

I'm sorry.

There's no need for an apology.

Just quit your job.

Why won't you answer me?

All you need to say is "Yes, Mother."

I'm sorry, Mother.

I won the topping contest at the company recently

and it's on sale right now.

I'm sorting things out for the next season.

May I quit after I wrap things up?

Hey.

There are others who can take care of that.

So just do it as I say.

The dinner is ready.

Mother, sorry to interrupt

but I should go and help.

I'm sorry.

My gosh.

She's making comments on everything I say.

I try my best to adore her, but it's impossible.

Doran, what are you thinking about?

How can you space out

in front of a handsome guy like me?

Doran.

Is there any problem?

Director Wang.

Mother told me to

quit my job

and take care of the housework

and Grandma.

Did my mom say that?

Yes.

What do you think?

I...

I want you to stay at work.

The best thing about marrying you is

that I can commute with you day and night.

What do you want to do?

I also don't want to quit.

But because of Grandma

and housework...

Then, there's no need to consider.

Don't quit.

We have our housekeeper

and Ms. Cho anyway.

And whenever

Grandma relapses, we can hurry back home.

No problem, right?

I'll give it a thought.

So pretend you know nothing, okay?

Okay.

Ms. Cho, bring Mother a sungnyung.

Yes, Ms. Oh.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Mother.

Did you tell Doran to quit her job?

Yes, I did.

She said that she has too many things to do.

I told her to focus on Grandma.

Now that she's the eldest daughter-in-law,

she needs to learn all the housework too.

But Mother,

she's an important person at the company.

She also has an assigned work.

You don't need her to take care of the housework.

There are others who can do that job.

How dare you speak like that?

She's your wife but also

the wife of the eldest.

Do you think the housework is easy?

Eunyeong.

Let's take things slowly when it comes to that.

Mother!

She's just got married.

She will have plenty of opportunities.

Mother, Grandma says it's okay.

So, we'll take care of this matter.

Director.

We have a meeting this morning. We should go.

All right. You should go.

Let's go, Doran.

I'll go, Grandma, Father, and Mother.

All right.

Honey.

Why didn't you say anything?

To be honest,

you approved their marriage for Mother.

And it's reassuring to have her in the house.

How can you say that?

Is that what you think of me?

That's right. Am I wrong?

It's all because of me again.

Mother.

Did you really have to do that now?

Daeryuk was the one who started this talk.

Doran has done a good job

working and taking care of my mother so far.

Why are you so unhappy about her?

Does the house need her that much during the day?

Besides, is the company matter yours to decide?

It's my authority.

You never discussed this with me.

What is really wrong with you?

I can't believe what Father said.

Everything you said is right.

Mother, why don't we start working too?

Daya, stay out of this.

You don't want to add fuel to the fire.

Go with me, Doran.

What is wrong with you?

What do you mean?

You said that you'd think about it,

but why bring it up in front of everyone?

How does that make me look?

Why would you do that?

What have I done so wrong?

Are you saying that what you did is right?

What's going on, guys?

Can you listen to what I did so wrong?

Okay, go on.

My mother told Doran to quit her job.

I asked her what her opinion was

and she said she wanted to work.

So, I told my mother that

she is needed at the company.

So, please don't say such a thing again.

What do you think is so wrong about it?

I don't think that's wrong.

Right? Mr. Kang is always objective indeed.

Are you saying that he did a good job then?

Men are all the same.

I refuse to go to work with you today,

so let's go separately.

Did you see her temper?

I can't believe that she's my wife.

Whose temper does she take after?

- I'm off. / - Bye.

- Mr. Kang. / - Hi.

- What are you looking at? / - It's nothing.

Ms. Oh wants you to deliver

kimchi and pumpkin porridge to her family.

Okay.

Mr. Kang.

Mr. Kang wouldn't think that I'm an easy girl

who kisses any man, would he?

Who is it?

It's Mr. Kang. What brings him here?

Ta-da!

What's wrong?

Are you surprised that I'm home alone?

- It's nothing. / - What's that?

It's from Ms. Oh.

Why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?

Thank you but I'm busy. Please excuse me.

Mr. Kang, don't go.

Mr. Kang, I have something to give you.

Goodness.

Gosh.

Oh my goodness. What a stupid...

Goodness. What the...

Mr. Kang!

Mr. Kang.

Why did you leave like that?

I told you that I have something to give you.

What do you have for me?

This.

What's this?

I went shopping yesterday

and bought this for you.

They're gloves. Try them on.

Why are you giving this to me?

When I was drunk the other day,

you didn't think of me as a hassle,

kept me company

and walked home with me.

You taught me how to bake too.

So, I bought it.

Think of it as a gift from your student and take it.

Okay.

I'll think of it as a gift from my student

and take it.

Let me put them on for you.

It's okay. I'll do it.

They fit well. Thank you, Hongju.

You gladly accepted my gift.

The gloves fit you well

and look good on you.

I feel like I'm about to fly off.

I feel bad for only taking from you

without giving anything back. What should I do?

Then,

do you want to treat me with a coffee?

Coffee?

I could've bought one from a coffee shop.

I think

this is a little too cheap in exchange for your gift.

I like drinking coffee from the vending machine

with you and the cool breeze.

Then I'll treat you to it again next time.

- Really? / - Yes.

What's wrong?

This is for the coffee you bought me.

You can stop now. It's enough.

- Isn't it exciting? / - What...

- Are you scared? / - Yes, I am.

- I know it's fun. / - No.

You need to push me too.

Why are you in a suit? What's the occasion?

I need to pay a visit to the company today.

- What company? / - What do you mean?

It's of course, Bom and Food.

Iryuk.

Are you going to work now then?

It's what you wished for.

I've given it some serious thought.

I can do whatever it is that you want.

Work is no exception. Look forward to it, Daya.

You're so handsome in a suit.

You look like you're from a photoshoot.

My husband is the best!

You're so cool.

Goodness, come here.

Here.

Mother.

Iryuk says that he'll work from now on.

- Isn't it wonderful? / - Yes, it is.

What's wrong?

I don't know what to do with Doran.

She never listens to me and hides behind Daeryuk.

It hurt my pride too in the morning.

You must be frustrated.

If she got married because of Grandmother,

she should just stay and nurse her at home.

Who does she think she is to go to work instead?

Come to think of it, she's going to work

while being supported by you at home.

Her grandma-in-law treats her well

and her father-in-law adores her.

I think it's gotten to her after all.

This won't do.

I better have her as a housewife

or this will continue to frustrate me.

You know, even if she resigns,

we have Ms. Cho and the housekeeper.

They're doing all the house chores anyway.

She might hide behind Grandmother and become

even more arrogant if you let her stay at home.

You have a point.

Like Daeryuk mentioned,

there are enough of people to do housework.

Pour some more chili pepper powder.

- Okay. This much. / - Yes. That's enough.

Good. All right.

See if it's seasoned well.

- It's bitter. / - That's why it's good.

That's right.

- It's tasty when it ripens. / - That's right.

And no longer bitter.

It's seasoned perfectly.

Housekeeper.

Mother wants to see you.

Me?

Here.

What's this, ma'am?

A holiday bonus.

- A holiday bonus. / - Yes.

You've worked for us

day and night for over 20 years.

I'm so grateful.

So, I wanted to give you a break.

Stay with your daughter for a month.

Ma'am.

Did I do something wrong?

You didn't do anything wrong.

I'm giving you a holiday.

- Are you sure? / - Yes.

But do me a favor.

Tell everyone that

your daughter gave birth

and that you need to help her.

- Can you do that? / - But ma'am.

My daughter is only giving birth in two months.

Just tell everyone that she gave birth.

Babies are born early.

Take another break when the baby comes.

- Okay then. / - You must say that

- it's for postnatal care. / - Okay. I will, ma'am.

Good. Do that for me.

Did your daughter give birth?

Yes, ma'am.

Congratulations.

Is it a boy or a girl?

Oh, well, it's a boy.

Is it a boy? I'm envious.

He must be so cute.

- Is your daughter well? / - She is.

So, Mother.

Her daughter needs someone to help out

so she asked to take a month off.

- I said she could. / - Good. Well done.

Of course, you should help.

Go and take good care of them both.

Thank you, Madam Park.

My gosh.

This sudden departure is confusing me.

Right? Don't you agree this is out of the blue?

What?

Tell me the honest truth.

Tell you what?

You told me before that

your daughter is giving birth in two months.

Did she really give birth already?

She did. The baby is really here.

"The baby is really here." You stuttered.

It's not about the baby.

Is there a conspiracy?

Stop it.

I'll warn you now.

Keep your mouth shut. Okay?

Okay.

Have fun. You haven't seen your daughter in a while.

I'll leave you in charge of everything.

Housekeeper.

Are you ready to go?

Yes.

Mr. Kang will take you to the bus terminal.

- Okay. Thank you, ma'am. / - Go ahead.

That was so awkward.

Something is going on.

I heard that you're going to see your new grandson.

You must be so pleased.

Why do you look unwell?

I'm happy that I'll get to see my daughter.

I'm really happy.

But Mr. Kang.

While I'm away,

please keep an eye on Ms. Kim for me.

Ms. Kim?

I think her mother-in-law is going to be tough on her.

She's a newlywed and I feel terrible for her.

What do you mean by that?

I have a daughter myself.

I'm on my way to see her,

but I don't feel entirely relieved.

Something bothers me.

But

are you going on a holiday

not because of your daughter but

because Ms. Oh sent you away?

What?

So that Ms. Oh can make

Ms. Kim do your job.

So that Ms. Oh can give Ms. Kim a hard time.

Is that it?

I'm sorry, Mr. Kang.

Don't ask me such a difficult question.

Just help her out

whenever you can for me.

Okay.

The majority of our customers

who ate seolleongtang were in their 40s and 50s.

But Bom and Food's seolleongtang

was remade so that each generation can enjoy it.

A seolleongtang that you can enjoy

with convenience, tidiness, and safety.

The bright and modern interior

provides a place you can stop by to recharge in too.

Yes, Mother.

I need you to come home early.

The housekeeper is gone, so we must cook dinner.

Mother, I'm meeting Daeryuk's friends

to thank them for coming to our wedding.

Why would you need to go?

What did you say this morning?

You said you'd be home early after work.

How can you change your tune before one day?

Okay. I'll do as you wish.

Bye.

Come in.

Get ready to go.

Let's beat the rush hour traffic.

We're the hosts, so we can't be late.

I'm really sorry.

You have to go on your own.

Why?

I have to go home.

The housekeeper is not in.

What do you mean? I called all my friends.

I'll call Mom to explain.

Please don't do that.

Why...

Will they starve without the housekeeper?

There's Mom, Ms. Cho, and Daya.

Would I feel comfortable if I went with you

instead of going home?

Why is she doing this? I just don't get it.

To be honest, it's true that

I neglected the housework since we got married.

I want to go home and spend time with

Mother and Grandmother.

Okay.

I can't even complain. You'll say that I'm immature.

Explain to your friends for me and have fun.

I don't see how it'll be fun without you.

We'll be apart for a few hours.

- Let's have a hug. / - You're so silly.

Director...

What are you two doing?

I'm not doing anything.

I'll be apart from my wife for a few hours,

so I was just saying goodbye.

You're really getting up to all sorts of things.

I feel lonely as it is already.

Sign this for me.

I'm sorry, Secretary Hong.

Let's see.

These days,

I fear you more than anyone.

Will you cut me some slack?

- Come in. / - I'm home, Mother.

Did you just get back?

Yes.

Around this time every year,

it's our tradition to make our own dumplings.

- Dumplings. / - Yes.

We must make enough and send to our friends.

I see.

How will we manage without the housekeeper?

Did she go somewhere?

Yes. Her daughter had a son.

She wanted to help out and I had no choice.

So you should make them this time

as the eldest daughter-in-law.

- Can you manage? / - Well, Mother...

How long do I have to make and how many?

200 kimchi dumplings, 200 meat dumplings.

By tomorrow.

400 dumplings?

By tomorrow?

Daya and I have to go to a bazaar,

so ask Ms. Cho what to do.

Make your own dough. Don't buy from the store.

Mother.

Can't I make them over the weekend?

I have an important meeting tomorrow.

Hey. If you go to work,

must I miss the bazaar to make dumplings?

I did this every year since I got married.

Don't talk about work to me.

I told you to quit.

From now on, housework is your priority.

- Okay. / - Yes, understood.

Good.

- I'll look forward to it. / - Yes, Mother.

What's up with him?

He didn't even answer my call last night.

Did he sleep all day to not see my missed calls?

That can't be right. What time is it now?

Gosh, this is hurting my pride.

It's so ridiculous.

Did that jobless guy dump me?

How could he be so irresponsible?

Should I call him just in case?

I won't. I have my pride, after all.

I won't do it.

Hey.

Who are you talking to?

What's wrong?

It's me. Your boyfriend.

How dare you make me wait

and worry?

Why did you not answer my calls?

Do you want to terminate the contract?

I'm sorry. I've been busy.

How can a jobless guy be busy?

Did you break your finger? Couldn't you text me?

Did you even have time to eat?

Did you sleep all day? Is that why?

Are you regretting our contract?

Then just tell me. I'll cancel it immediately.

Why would I cancel it? Why do you think I'm here?

I'm sorry for making you wait.

Let's go out on a date.

No. You can go on a date by yourself.

I can't do that by myself. I need you on my date.

Let go of me.

Here. Try this.

- Why? / - It's just...

You have something on your face.

- What are you doing? / - A prank.

That's not funny.

- Miran. / - What?

Even when you are sulky or upset,

you're still cute.

What?

You sometimes sound like a playboy.

What?

Just eat this.

What are you doing?

Don't do that ever again.

Please take a look at the scarves.

This one is pretty.

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

Do you want to try this on?

Okay.

It looks good on him.

- These are for couples. / - Wait.

It looks so good.

- You look pretty. / - It's warm.

Take a photo?

One, two, three.

So the ingredients for dumpling are

tofu, chives, bean sprouts, glass noodles,

and some meat?

Okay. I'll ask Ms. Cho if I have a question.

You'll be back after your daughter's

postnatal care, right?

Please hurry.

Don't worry. Okay.

Doran.

Why are you so drunk?

My wife. My Bunny.

You reek of alcohol.

Why did you drink so much?

My friends made me drink a lot

because you couldn't come.

Still, you shouldn't have drunk so much.

My wife. You're the best.

Gosh, move it.

I can't believe this.

What should I do with the dumplings?

I can't miss tomorrow's promotional meeting.

Dad.

Can you go to the market with me now?

Sure.

But why at this time of the night?

I need to buy ingredients for dumplings

but Director Wang is very drunk now.

Dumplings?

Okay. I'll see you out there.

Where is she going at this late hour?

I'm sorry for calling you out at this late hour.

It's okay.

I'm glad

that I can see you again like this.

Do you really mean that?

Sure.

Whenever you need me,

don't hesitate and tell me.

Okay?

Thank you.

Dad.

What?

What...

What's that?

Did you just say,

"Dad"?

(My Only One)

Ms. Na.

Is your son seeing anyone?

It's cold, right? Give me your hands.

Let go of me, you jerk! Go away!

Hongju. Who is that guy?

Ms. Oh is being so mean.

I'm sure she's doing this on purpose

so that Ms. Kim can't go to work.

She's working. How could you do this to her?

Where am I? Myeonghui.

We have a problem. Grandmother is gone.
