(Episode 18)

So...

I...

Hey, Gwang Tae. What's up?

Don't forget to buy soju so we can mix it with our beer, okay?

Got it.

You were saying?

Forget it.

Are you kidding me?

Maybe later.

I'll now lose sleep over this.

Just tell me if it's good or bad.

Something good.

I guess I'm done sleeping then.

This isn't the place. So when will we take that trip?

Work's been piling up since I had to be away.

We'll go once I get it sorted out.

Where were you anyway? You didn't even return my texts.

I thought you had run off with some girl.

Busted.

It's like I said. I'm watching you.

I hope it's not anything bad.

Hardly. It's a good thing.

Peculiar, isn't it?

Our situation is always the same whether it's good or bad.

Not really.

Seeing you in a good mood always puts a smile on my face.

You're such a copycat.

You look like you lost some weight.

Are you not feeling good?

Maybe it's because I haven't shaved.

I was thinking about growing a beard.

I'm totally against that.

Then I'll shave.

I was on my way to buy some booze, so let's talk later.

Our family's having a party, you see.

(Shining under Starlight)

- Shut it and keep going. Cheers! - Shut it and keep going. Cheers!

Wait a second. I don't think that's enough.

We'll go with "Luck has found us."

It's here.

Luck...

- has found us. - Luck has found us!

Gosh, that's good.

Congratulations, Gwang Sik.

Starting today, you'll be able to sleep like a baby.

I'll comfortably lie in bed even up to my fingers and toes.

You didn't have to order so much. It's like we're robbing her.

A second divorce might leave me broke.

When else would we get to eat like this?

Did you save some for Ttu Gi?

Yes, and I can also order some more.

Food delivery is top-class here in Korea.

We're both divorced,

but one is in paradise while one is in misery.

Of course.

You left paradise while she left a life of misery.

And you?

Me? Paradise and misery. An ice bath and a hot bath.

It's like I'm on a roller-coaster ride.

Gosh, I'm dizzy!

There are 5 of us at this table, but 3 are divorced.

Is our family the problem?

Do an exorcism.

Ominous energy runs across this building.

Gwang Sik, congratulations.

I've always felt guilty, you see.

If only I hadn't taken Pyeon Seung with me that day.

A bad relationship curses you.

You end up dating one weird guy after the next.

She's not like you, you know. Forget she ever said that.

I honestly don't care.

Starting tomorrow, I'll be designing meal kits.

I'll make a good life for myself.

I couldn't be more satisfied.

It's as if I've finally discarded the shackles around my ankles.

One lousy piece of paper did all that.

Even a piece of paper can hold that much weight.

You sisters should have a good life.

Gwang Tae, mix a drink for me.

What are you trying to do?

- Hey! - My gosh!

Goodness.

(Base pay)

Seven hundred dollars.

Stop by after work. I'll be waiting.

Yes, ma'am.

Mister, that apartment you had.

How much did you sell it for?

Why do you ask?

It was taken from him to cover Maeng Ja's debt.

If only you held out.

My friend lives in that complex and the price doubled.

Those who are unlucky don't even know it...

when luck sweeps by in front of them.

Why are you suddenly mentioning that?

No reason.

I'm just saying that the owners lucked out...

since the price doubled.

Why are you saying that when I'm having breakfast though?

There's no need to get angry over it.

Auntie, that's enough.

I'm entitled to my opinions, you know.

Know the time and place.

He's obviously upset. So why add fuel to the flame?

We're all the same, you know.

It's upsetting to hear others making money,

but he lost his house to pay off a debt.

It's the same with house prices.

The money isn't yours until you actually sell it.

The price doubling right now...

doesn't mean anything right now.

It's not like you can buy another after selling what you have.

Thinking about it probably wakes Cheol Soo from his sleep,

so watch what you're saying.

Why should I at this age?

Hello? Yes, this is Lee Gwang Nam.

Right now? Yes, of course. Thank you.

I think I might get a job.

Doing what?

- Working at a diner. - A diner?

What would you do there?

Make food or wash dishes?

Wash dishes. I'm willing to try anything.

As if.

Showering is the only washing you've ever done.

Don't cause trouble for others and spend what you have.

Ask Byun Ho for more when you run out.

I don't have any.

Why not? Did you already spend it all?

I gave it back.

You gave it back? Are you insane?

That was wrong of you. You know what that money was for.

You gave back the money?

And he just easily took it back?

I thought it'd be better since...

it's an embarrassing amount to say that I received any.

That's what you said, Dad.

Anyway, we'll no longer talk about this.

I won't worry you in any way,

so hold your opinions no matter what I do.

I'll get going then.

She's gone insane.

The divorce finally got to her head.

Giving it to me would've at least resulted in some gratitude.

You, Oh Taeng Ja.

Whatever the reason is, doing this was wrong.

Do you really want her to lose it?

Some things aren't meant to be said.

Must we start the day annoyed by you?

This is just wrong.

What if it's because she's still hung up on him?

Why would she give the money back when she should be asking for more?

Maybe she really has lost it.

I'm sure she had her reasons.

I doubt it.

She obviously has a long way to go.

She doesn't know how scary this world is.

Earning 30,000 dollars is no joke.

Why didn't she just give it to me?

You sound like someone I know.

But I'm right.

If I'm to earn that money,

I have to save up for three years cutting back on food and clothes.

Gwang Nam just isn't wired like we are.

Can you understand her decision?

Of course not.

Maybe she still is hung up on Byun Ho...

just like Aunt Taeng Ja said.

Why would she be though when he had a child out of wedlock?

She only offered to divorce him first...

so that they wouldn't end things on a bad note.

She's crazy for sure.

Only those involved know how the relationship truly is.

That could be what she's thinking.

Darn, that's frustrating.

Why don't we get the money back?

Byun Ho shouldn't have accepted it.

How could he? That jerk.

Gwang Nam would kill us if she finds out.

Let's turn a blind eye and support her for now.

We'll make sure she stays on the right track.

Okay.

What a waste.

It wasn't even yours.

Make sure to come on time later.

You know I've been trying hard to win your heart.

Do you know how upsetting and disappointing this is?

I try to play along with everything you say, but sometimes I feel sad.

Was I being too hard on him?

I'm home.

Take a look. Do you call that thing a suit?

Why do you need a suit all of a sudden?

I don't have a decent suit to wear to a gathering.

Maybe I should go in my underpants.

Do you know how ridiculous you'd look in your underpants and shoes?

I can imagine.

This one is fine though.

It just needs a few stitches here.

One day, when I don't respond to your calls, that means I'm dead.

It will be too late to regret.

Just like Hwang Mang Tae.

I'll buy you a new suit next month.

I have no choice.

I'll just go to a wedding or a funeral...

in this military uniform or my underpants and shoes.

And if people criticize me...

for looking like that because my son didn't buy me a suit,

I won't care.

So you can leave.

I feel bad that you have such an unfortunate father.

It's my fault that I've raised my son into a pathetic man...

who can't even afford a suit.

Just go.

You're not a little kid.

Let's switch places.

What are you looking for?

Do you have any digestive medicine?

I'll find you one.

Okay.

Is this about Gwang Nam?

I can't believe she's doing the dishes at a restaurant.

Why did she give him the money back?

You told her to return it.

I didn't know she'd really do that.

And it's not just about Gwang Nam.

I got indigestion as I heard the apartment price has doubled.

I was really upset as if I got my money snatched.

I understand how you feel.

If you held up without selling the apartment,

you would've made hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Some people laugh all the way to the bank.

Gosh, Brother Tes. What's wrong with the world?

I feel so small now.

Nothing's working out,

but I feel rushed.

I'm turning 70 soon and running out of time.

But all my children are so pathetic.

I guess I'll spend my entire life working like this.

Don't say that, Cheol Soo.

Your depression might act up again.

I just thought...

I should make money and my wife should take care of our children.

Just like pharmacists take care of medicine,

mothers should take care of their children.

That's what I believed.

I should've raised them into adults who can pay their ways.

I realized that too late.

You just had no time for that.

You were too busy making money.

That's how we all lived back then.

How are you going to finish the work in time like that?

Just drain the pots and pile them up.

Have you not worked at a restaurant before?

Yes, I have.

Where did you work?

You can't do things the way you do at home here.

You have to hurry.

What have you done all this time?

Ma'am, we just can't work with her.

She's been piling up every pot carefully...

to keep them up in straight lines all day.

She's been doing this for a whole hour.

Forget about the pots. You know how to wash vegetables, right?

Sure.

I mop the floor wherever I go. This is what I'll do my entire life.

How many part-time jobs are you working now?

Three.

Gwang Tae, make sure it shows well.

(We're offering a special 20 percent discount today.)

And wipe the tables again.

I don't care.

Hey.

Are you done?

Yes.

Is this all you've washed?

Yes. I tried to wash them thoroughly.

How are we going to serve customers like this?

- Ms. Chil Dong. - Yes?

My goodness.

Customers will flood in any time now. We're in trouble.

- Hurry and wash them. - Okay.

Darn it.

Gosh.

You must be the worst employee ever.

You've never worked at a restaurant, have you?

Again?

I apologize.

(Chairman Heo Pung Jin)

Do you gamble by any chance?

It's not like that.

Then why do you keep asking for an advance?

I want to buy my dad a suit.

I heard he's unemployed. Why would he need a suit?

He's about to attend weddings and funerals in his underpants.

I must say your father is a lucky man.

Does he even know that you're working three jobs now?

- Kind of. - That's not enough.

- Sa Chae. - Yes.

I'll give you an advance because you work hard.

But you can't save money like this.

This won't happen again.

This is 500 dollars.

Thank you, sir.

Welcome.

How may I help you?

Isn't that obvious? I'm here to buy a suit.

I'm looking for a suit for my dad.

It has to be good. Get me a decent one.

With a good price.

Oh, okay. This way, please.

This one is popular these days.

Why don't you try it on? It'd fit you well.

No, it's okay.

What do you think?

Gosh, you've got a nice figure, Dad.

You look the best among those who've tried it on.

No way.

We just need to shorten the pants and sleeves.

How long would it take? The sooner the better.

I'll get you the suit as soon as it's mended.

Let me help you with the payment there.

May I take your order?

What's good here?

What about this one? Is it good?

I don't know because I never had one.

Then can you recommend what people eat a lot?

Me? This is my first day here.

What do we eat then?

- Shall we go somewhere else? - Let's do that.

We have good beef jeongol.

It's really tasty.

- Why don't you try it? - Okay. We'll have that.

Okay.

It's 37.8 dollars.

You don't have to come tomorrow.

You can't serve behind the counter, serve tables, or do the dishes.

Actually, we need to get paid.

I don't know the situation you're in,

but stop causing trouble to restaurants...

and do something else.

I feel bad for other restaurant owners.

Thank you.

Bye.

(Relief Heat Patches)

(Husband)

I don't think we have anything to talk about now.

Of course, we do.

How are you going to get by after giving me all the money back?

You need that money right now.

I'll come over to your place. Come outside.

I don't need anything. Don't call me again.

Honey. Gwang Nam.

Oh, you're in a good mood, are you?

I hope you get a younger sibling soon, Blessing.

I guess Mr. Bae won't come home again tonight.

Why won't you call him by his name?

It's a habit.

You need to get close to him.

Mr. Bae needs to give me a chance if I'm to do that.

He just won't let me.

He used to come by at 4:30 a.m. without fail.

Whether it rained or snowed,

he'd come over just to see Blessing.

But now...

Where are you?

At work.

I have a lot to do.

Even so, think of the people waiting for you at home.

Even Blessing is up waiting for you.

He's looking around, wondering when you'll come home.

He's exhausting himself, walking up to the entrance.

Come home soon.

He said he's busy. Try to understand.

I do understand.

Don't you have anything pretty to wear at night?

There's something I bought.

Blessing, it looks like something good will happen tonight.

Your lips make contact.

Her tongue and your tongue come together naturally.

Slide it in slowly, like a snake.

A date?

What are you watching so intently?

I need to do research if I'm to give dating advice.

Is work bearable?

It's much better than trying to collect loans.

Cooking's fun.

And you? Are things coming together?

I'm training up an apprentice right now.

Hey, Gong Chae.

Shall we make YouTube videos together?

We can do that at night.

You'll give dating advice. What am I to do?

While I give advice, you can...

Wouldn't it be unique and fun if you ate next to me silently?

People are so weird. They think all fat people eat a lot.

You know I eat small amounts.

I forgot. Sorry. Don't let it get to you.

- Are you asleep? - No. Why?

Just because.

Do you...

know how to kiss?

I once came first in a kissing contest.

If you're bad at it,

I could give you tips so that you understand.

We should kiss?

- Forget it. - No, wait.

Women like good kissers.

Look at me.

When you kiss,

your lips make contact.

Her tongue and your tongue...

A dog's tongue? What's a dog doing there?

I have no idea. Anyway...

Her tongue and your tongue come together like snakes.

Like snakes? What are you doing with snakes now?

I have no idea. Anyway...

Her tongue and your tongue come together naturally like snakes.

They writhe around like this, and they rub together.

They rub together until they get hot.

Rub them until they get a heat rash.

Rub them until your front teeth fall out.

In the front, in the back, in the front again.

Then 3 times to the left, and 3 times to the right.

You rub them together like crazy.

That's gross.

Why would a dog and snake rub tongues?

That's how it's done. Don't you understand?

If you don't understand, shall we practice a bit?

No way. That's just weird.

I'm tired. I'm going to bed.

Sleep well.

I'm late. I got off work late.

It's okay.

A cake?

Is it your birthday?

Perhaps?

Sit down first.

Buy me...

ten bottles of soda.

Soda?

You said you would because I'm that frustrating.

In the playground.

I did say that.

Did you get your wish?

Yes.

I'm divorced. We filed the paperwork.

I'm free now. Freedom!

That's awesome.

Congratulations. I'm so pleased for you.

What's wrong?

I'm off to buy the soda.

Later.

I haven't seen you this happy before.

Right? I can't put it in words.

He called out of the blue to meet up for a good reason.

I'd asked him for a divorce before.

He blew me off so I thought it would be a tough fight,

but this time, he called me and offered to file the papers.

Did he say anything else?

He got it done then and there.

I guess he saw reason.

He's a poor kid if you think about it.

He's not a bad person,

but his whole family relies on him.

That's how he ended up like that.

I was so thankful.

I even felt bad for hating him.

If I'd known, I'd have bought the cake.

For some reason, I wanted you to congratulate me.

Did you?

Is your family pleased?

Don't even ask. I spent a fortune on the party.

Freedom!

Let's have some wine.

Here.

To Unit 401 Lee Gwang Sik's new life.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Do you know why I'm like this?

It's not because I'm embarrassed or because it hurts my pride.

And it's not because I tarnished my family's reputation.

What will you do for a living now?

What is most important?

Making enough to feed yourself is your priority.

The eldest...

is a gift from heaven.

You're the eldest and so am I.

The whole family was disappointed because you weren't a boy.

But to be honest, I was happy and pleased you were a girl.

You are my firstborn.

You're home, Mr. Bae. I mean, Blessing's dad.

I had a lot to drink, Ms. Shin.

Mom's asleep.

Come to the master bedroom.

No, I sleep in the study.

The master bedroom.

No.

No, no.

I'm sorry.

Maria.

Put your strength to good use.

You have skills that got him to give you Blessing.

Take him some honeyed water.

Okay.

You should sleep with your pants off.

I'll do it.

I'm not trying anything, you know.

There's no need to get defensive.

You'll sleep more comfortably with your pants off.

Stop it. Just stop!

Was that necessary?

I don't bite, you know.

I could end up with another child in my sleep.

(Chairman Hwang Cheon Gil)

I was on my way home after work and you popped into my head.

Call me whenever you want.

Uncle, I'm home.

Right.

I hear you've been dreading kindergarten lately.

Why's that? Is kindergarten no fun?

The kids at kindergarten bore me.

What do the kids talk about?

"How big is your house?"

"What does your father do?"

"What car does your family have?"

They're too young to be talking about money.

Goodness. You got that right.

Uncle, you've been in a bad mood, haven't you?

Children are trouble, aren't they?

Your children never turn out the way you want them to.

I have 3 daughters and 2 are divorced.

I'm too embarrassed to talk about them.

Gwang Nam gave all the money back even though she's broke.

She has no husband to lean on or a job she can be proud of.

If she had moved around from orphanage to orphanage like me,

her head would've been screwed on straight.

I'd love nothing more than for Gwang Tae...

to at least get a good job.

(Clerical Worker Wanted)

Let's see.

Hello?

I called the number on the help-wanted ad.

Are you looking for a clerical assistant?

No, not me. My daughter.

You. Follow me.

But I have a part-time job to get to.

I don't care. Follow me inside.

But I need to get going.

Why are you sitting way over there?

You're scary these days, that's why.

What?

The three of us agreed...

to stay out of your sight for the time being.

If that's how you feel, just do better.

Give that number a call.

- What is this? - It's for a clerical assistant job.

It's pretty obvious.

But you haven't even checked it out.

I don't have to see it to know.

There will be 5 or 6 people set up in a tiny office...

getting boxes ready for delivery.

Even though you work your butt off, there will be no raise or promotion.

And you'll be told to clean all day.

One will do coffee runs until they grow old.

How could you possibly know that?

For 6 years since the age of 23, that's all I've been hearing.

Part-time jobs pay better.

It's not the money that matters.

You should have a job you can say that's yours.

As if a title actually matters.

What?

Do you want to turn out like your sisters?

One should plan their lives in a way that takes them...

a step forward.

One shouldn't live so carelessly.

That's not how one should live.

It's how it is for my generation.

Stop talking gibberish and send in a resume.

You won't be able to marry at this rate.

But I won't marry.

Can't, not won't.

Who would marry someone like you?

Even I would say no to a daughter-in-law like you.

I'm going to start a business. You wait and see.

With what money?

Gwang Tae,

stop chasing wild dreams.

Back in the day, women could live on the money their husbands made,

but it's a different world now.

Whether you marry or not,

you should still be able to provide for yourself.

Look at Gwang Nam, for example.

She leaned on her husband her whole life...

and now she's washing dishes at a diner.

If she had some sort of a career,

she wouldn't be in this state.

That's just how society is though.

Why blame society when she made it worse herself?

Society doesn't ask you for food or money,

so why blame it every chance you get?

This is your life.

So don't wait to be saved...

and take responsibility for your life.

They only take applicants until today.

So hand in your resume.

It's just wrong.

(Shining under Starlight)

Whatever!

(Ogwang Logistics)

(Work Experience)

You've worked many part-time jobs,

so you'll easily pick up on the work.

How much is the salary?

During the probational period, you only get the base pay.

So how much is it exactly?

It'll cover the cost for transportation and meals.

I'd like a number.

About 400 to 500 dollars.

Take care.

Do I take the job when it only pays 400 to 500 dollars at the start?

Why would you when you make around a grand working part-time?

My thoughts exactly.

A probational period didn't even seem necessary.

I can't work just for transportation expenses.

If bookkeeping was my dream, I'd gladly accept the minimal wage,

but it isn't.

- Of course not. - Exactly.

Darn, it's my dad. He's driving me crazy.

Ignore him.

That's not an option in my family.

He'll kill me for it.

Hey, Dad.

How did it go? Did you send in your resume?

It's actually going out of business. The ad was posted a while back.

Welcome. Dad, I have a customer to tend to.

You're an exceptional liar.

Society led me to be one.

Anyway, make sure it's spotless.

Gwang Tae!

I bet you're not a good kisser.

What?

Well,

I could teach you how to master the art.

It's just that you and him...

have no chemistry whatsoever.

So?

Should I show you how sparks can fly?

Of course not.

How could you?

You can't post a help-wanted ad when your business is closing.

You just made someone waste their valuable time.

You must have heard wrong...

because we aren't going out of business.

We even hired new employees today.

What?

Gosh, I'm so sorry.

Who are you looking to beat up today?

What?

You've been pacing around with that broom in your hand.

It's none of your business.

I don't even have to guess. I bet it's Gwang Tae.

Gwang Tae, run!

Is Gwang Tae here?

- You... - No, don't.

Gosh.

Dad. Please don't.

- Stop it. - Don't!

Dad!

Get back here.

- What on earth? - Goodness.

Get back here!

Mister!

You weren't kidding about being a marathon runner.

Why did you run away? You know you did wrong, don't you?

I only did because you came after me.

How can you live with yourself? How dare you lie to me?

It wasn't going out of business!

How can I work a job that only pays 400 dollars?

Have you not been listening to what I've been saying?

This is why you'll never succeed.

You're always only on my case.

You thinking I'm worthless is why others think that of me too.

I'm your youngest daughter,

but you never treated me like so.

Gwang Nam was babied...

and you still think of her as some fragile china.

Meanwhile, Gwang Sik got all your praise.

You've always been hard on me.

I could kill myself and you still wouldn't care!

Seriously? How dare you say that to your father!

What?

Right now?

Got it.

What? Hey. Gwang Tae!

Honey.

I'm here.

Can't you get here on time?

Punctual is my middle name.

I just got held up watching an accident.

What kind of accident?

Mind your own business and go back to your onions.

I'm the one who got you this job, you know.

Aren't I right, Chef? Wasn't she hired thanks to me?

The sight of you always makes me queasy.

Don't look down on me just because I peel onions.

I'm not one to work at a place like this.

I'm not either.

Let me warn you in advance. Don't think about falling for me.

Wait, what? Why would I like you?

It's obvious to me.

I spent 55 years guessing how people feel.

You're always so pleasant with him and address him as "Honey."

So why aren't you that way with me?

Because you're old and he's young.

I hate it when men who are old and poor talk to me.

And I find it weird when I see an old woman...

address a younger man as "Honey."

Must you talk that way? It makes me sick.

Hello, this is Ilmiri Jjimdak.

- A delivery? What would you like? - It's been a while.

Has Mr. Shin been waxing his shoes well?

- And Mr. Lee brushes his teeth? - It'll soon be delivered.

Would you like to order a beverage?

Once I wrap up my business here, I'll be heading to China.

Thank you.

If I'm lucky, I might even get a woman to join me.

Honey, an order of jjimdak came in.

- What is he saying? - I hear he ran...

a large business in China.

Is he loaded?

I bet he doesn't. Why else would he be peeling onions here?

Yes, of course.

He always slacks off, you know. You should just fire him.

I most certainly can't.

- Why not? Aren't you the boss? - Well...

You can't tell anyone.

I feel bad for him since he's working to pay off his debt.

You're too kind for your own good.

You should fire that guy too.

Where are you taking me?

We're almost there.

Why are we here?

Let's both get Botox shots.

- No way. - Wait.

Just hear me out. You look older than ever these days.

Stop focusing on just your hair and tend to your skin too.

You can't be going around like a dead man...

just because your daughter got divorced.

Tell the whole world, why don't you?

So Cheol Soo, let's straighten the skin out first.

Fewer wrinkles on the face...

will lead to fewer wrinkles in our lives.

Having a wrinkly face will only reflect on your life.

- Is that so? - Remember Hwang Mang Tae's brother?

He earned a fortune selling masks...

that a few millions of dollars is like chump change to him.

I know.

His nickname is Dog Bowl.

Why? He's so ugly that even his mother won't look at him.

But having money makes him seem like a movie star.

These days, being rich makes you look handsome.

We have no money to our name,

so we can't afford to look like death.

I guess.

Then let's head inside. It'll take less than five minutes.

Wait. Won't it hurt?

It stings but only for a second. You know how shots are.

- But... - Come on.

I'm sorry, but will it hurt?

It'll sting.

You can squeeze this.

Is this your first time?

Of course. I dragged him here myself.

He seems scared, so can I stay with him?

It's normally not allowed, but go ahead.

My gosh. Look at that sharp needle. Just how long is that thing?

Cheol Soo, the needle is thin but long.

Does it go in all the way?

Of course not.

It doesn't go in all the way.

Oh, dear. He's about to stick it in.

My gosh. Cheol Soo, hang in there.

Death is the worst that can happen to you anyway.

He won't die. Will he, doctor?

Please relax, sir.

He told you to relax.

My goodness. He's about to stick the needle in.

The needle is about to enter your face!

It hasn't gone in yet.

- What? - It will gently sting.

It's about to poke your face!

Bear the pain. Now, for the other side.

It's going in. It's...

I see tears in your eyes.

My gosh. I can even see blood!

Stop broadcasting the scene to me.

You're the reason why I'm giving up.

Darn, it hurts.

I'm done with this.

But your forehead won't be even.

It won't be even.

Then so be it because I can't take it anymore.

Is this the case for everyone else?

Men find it hard to bear the pain.

They're not like the ladies.

Women are relentless, aren't they?

- Why not bear it a while longer? - No, I'm good.

This is just wrong.

Goodness.

(Shining under Starlight)

Cheol Soo, recyclables are being collected tomorrow,

so sort out the trash cans...

on the rooftop and stairs and bring them out.

Okay, got it. My gosh.

What's wrong? Are you in pain?

Dol Se and I went for Botox shots, but they hurt more than I expected.

Botox shots?

I refused to go, but he kept on insisting.

Never again though.

Is he now getting Botox shots...

so that he can get women to buy him grilled eel?

Take it. I deposited the money in there.

I found your bankbook among my belongings.

I don't need this.

Don't be stubborn.

I understand that this hurts your pride,

but you need money to live properly.

I'm working now, so I don't need your money.

But you haven't worked a day before in your life.

Just take it though.

I'll manage on my own, so mind your own business.

I know you.

This isn't a world where...

someone like you can earn money.

Only those who have done it before know how to bring home the bacon.

Don't you worry, Lawyer Bae.

Think about those who have to watch you suffer.

Your father, your sisters, and your aunts.

This is all I have at the moment,

but I'll get you more.

Take it so that I can lift the weight off my chest.

That I can't do.

I don't want you to sleep without any worries.

I won't sleep without worries.

I'll be sure to stay uncomfortable.

I'm not up for a joke.

It's not like we're enemies.

Don't speak so politely to me.

I feel really bad for you.

I know...

I know what I did to you is unpardonable.

I don't know how the whole thing ended up the way it did.

(Ms. Shin)

Hello, what's the matter?

A video with Blessing?

I can't talk now. I'll call you back later.

I'll be sure to make up for it.

Make up for it?

How are you going to do that?

With money?

Do you think you can make up for what you did with money?

Honey.

Mr. Bae Byun Ho.

I'm not your honey.

And I don't need your petty money.

(Job Qualification)

You must've been hungry.

You're lucky I run a restaurant.

I'm so lucky.

The meals I have here are my favorite.

- Do you really mean that? - Sure.

On my way here, I was afraid if this place was closed.

I was starving.

Just leave it there. I'll do it.

I'm better at doing the dishes than you.

Look.

You're good.

I've lived alone for 15 years.

Stop bragging.

My gosh.

- Stop that. - Don't mess with me.

Aren't you off yet?

Gwang Nam.

You know him. He's Unit 301.

Hello.

Hey.

He's a regular here.

He offered to help me clean the place after eating.

Unit 301, you should go now.

Thank you for today.

All right then.

Were you on your way home?

No. I went to your room, but you weren't there.

Aren't you hungry?

No, I'm fine.

Have a seat. Let me finish this first.

Gwang Nam.

Dad told me not to cry.

Gwang Sik.

I'm so stupid.

I can't do anything.

I didn't know I was so incompetent.

I'm just useless.

Now I know why Dad was worried.

It's only been a short time, but I can feel it with my whole body.

How silly I have been.

That I have nothing to show off.

I even blame Mom for this.

Why did she raise me like this?

No.

I have no reason to blame her.

It's all my fault.

Gwang Sik, that's not true.

People can't be good at everything.

You're a good dancer.

I can't even do the turns or splits anymore.

If I kept dancing, I could've worked as a dance instructor.

I've done nothing but kill time.

You can start now.

Once you start practicing, your body will remember the moves.

Don't beat yourself up.

I think you're amazing.

You are running a restaurant like this.

You were a smart civil servant. Where did you get your courage?

I've lived for 43 years without thinking.

And now I'm standing alone on an empty plain.

I'm so envious of you.

And I admire you.

Even though you're my younger sister.

This is no big deal.

Can I work here with you?

Here?

We would barely make the labor costs.

We don't even have enough work for two people.

But Gwang Tae works here.

She just helps me when I do a big cleaning.

Wait.

Yes? I was waiting for your call.

How did it go?

Excuse me, Gwang Nam.

Did you make up with your husband?

Good.

Why are you guys fighting so often when you're newlyweds?

It doesn't matter who does the housework when you're in love.

Okay. Don't think about divorce yet.

Bye.

Gwang Nam.

Weren't you asleep?

Not yet.

Why is my heart pounding when I talk to you on the phone?

Don't be silly.

Chairman Hwang.

Do you want to grab a drink with me now?

Of course. I'll be right there.

Do you remember this place?

We came here with the other guys from the golf club.

I know.

And now I'm having a drink alone with you. Gosh.

Thank you for showing interest in a person like me.

What do you mean a person like you?

There are many in our club who are interested in you.

It's all flash and no substance.

Is Mr. Bae doing well?

Oh, right. I was under police investigation for your alibi.

I went to your apartment on the stormy night.

Thanks to your help, it went well.

What was it about?

Nothing.

Let's not talk about it.

Actually, I got divorced.

Oh, I wasn't sure.

There was a rumor among the golf club members.

Is that true?

Yes.

They talk a lot, don't they?

That's what nosy people do.

And they have a prejudice against divorce.

Don't mind them.

I don't.

I can't even afford to mind them.

I can barely look after myself now.

I don't care what others think.

I can't even cry in front of my family.

They say I don't deserve to cry.

Drop me off here.

I'll drive you to your home.

We're almost there. I'll get out here.

I'm fine.

I can go by myself.

Chairman Hwang, thank you for today.

I was honored to drink alone with you.

Call me anytime when you need someone to eat or drink with.

Okay.

See you.

My life is lopsided,

and now even my face is too.

This is wrong. Just wrong.

Kids these days celebrate their first day and 100th day,

but I came into this world tailor-made for Oh Bong Ja.

You don't know anything.

If I were to make a move on you, I'd do better than any dating kid.

You just keep still and prepare to feel butterflies.

Take this for me.

Promise to pass it to my son.

I will.

Yes, yes.

I left the kimchi with the security guard.

You like fresh kimchi.

Watch your health and take care.

I won't end up in a police station. I won't make you worry.

I don't need anything.

I'm fine if you're fine.

You're here early tonight.

Can we go now? To the seaside?

Right now?

This late?

Let's see the sun rise and have some raw fish.

Bad timing, right?

I wasn't serious. Let's go another time.

Let's go.

Who cares? Let's go when we want to.

I know we were in a hurry, but you could've left the apron.

Oh, dear.

Twice, I borrowed a nice car and we didn't get to go,

and this time we're in a truck. This is what I'm like.

I guess this is how it's meant to be.

This is fun too.

I'm in my work clothes.

So am I.

I seasoned raw fish and made geotjeori.

I smell.

You don't.

Either way, we're finally going! Yes!

It's nice, leaving on the spur of the moment.

Here we go!

Who else is going to the seaside in a one-ton truck?

Me!

What's wrong? Do you feel sick?

As if. I'm fine.

(Rest Area)

I'm back.

Here's the coffee.

I didn't mean to pry.

It's the sea.

We're by the sea!

Thank you for asking me along.

I'm glad.

I remember when we first met.

On the subway?

No.

In Marronnier Park.

We met there? When?

Two years ago.

On a dreadfully cold winter day.

I was playing my guitar and singing in the park.

Only a few stopped, then walked on.

It was my first time busking, so I was already trembling.

It was really cold and I felt so embarrassed.

I was going crazy because I wanted to stop but couldn't mid-song.

Just one person sat still and stayed until the song was done.

Thanks to that person,

I braved the shame and finished the song.

Once I managed that, I got brave and busked quite a lot.

Was that me?

I think so. It snowed that day too.

Oh, right. I think it did.

It was a really cold, snowy day.

Did you stay because you fell for me?

I couldn't leave because I felt sorry for you.

You were shivering like a stray dog,

and I stayed because I thought I shouldn't leave as well.

Music is strange.

How does it manage to move you in just 3 or 4 minutes?

It doesn't even take that long.

Some songs give you the chills as soon as you hear the intro.

The guitar intro of "Hotel California."

It's so chilling.

Cho Yong Pil's "Red Dragonfly" has the best first few bars.

I guess

Yong Pil!

I'm still young

I guess so

Mom

Why do I keep on

Missing her?

I'd always admired musicians.

Especially men who play guitars.

You said pianists. And saxophonists.

I did not.

Talking about music made you blush.

I'm that happy.

Just to talk about it?

If you like it that much, why not become a singer?

I guess I'm not good enough.

I'll finish the story.

A few months after that,

I saw the woman on the subway.

She was lecturing a young couple to give up their seat.

I was carrying the twins and you said, "You, Mom."

I did? I called you a mom?

I looked like one with two kids and my long hair tied back.

That time, you were really...

I got off with you and asked if you remembered me,

but you accused me of coming onto you.

Have you always had a good memory?

Not really.

Maybe it's because our fates were entwined.

I bet you've had a lot of girlfriends.

Should I be honest?

Yes, please.

I was too shy to even talk to women.

Really?

Yes, really. I'd go red in the face.

Besides, I didn't have any money to take a woman out.

Men like you have a lot of experience with women.

That's not the case.

This is great.

I got here on a one-ton truck smelling like the food I made today,

but it's still amazing.

I told you how I spent a year traveling abroad.

The sense of freedom I'd feel out on the plains late at night.

I've never felt that way again until today.

It must be because my divorce has been finalized.

Out there, I loved being alone.

I didn't mind being alone either...

and I loved how I could be alone.

Today, here on this beach though,

I like the fact that I have company.

I'm not scared...

or lonely.

My heart has never pounded at this speed before.

What's wrong?

Unit 301!

Unit 301?

(Revolutionary Sisters)

Doll yourself up...

and present yourself as his girlfriend to others.

Byun Ho! What brings you by?

I'm here to see a client.

Address me as your baby's mother and not as a client.

I'm at...

Unit 301!

It's about our wedding.

What did you just say?

Our wedding.

You and me?

What are you doing here? Are you stalking me?

You'd better not be in contact with your ex-wife.

That's the one thing I won't forgive.

Are you trying to give back the money she rejected?
