(Episode 20)

- Dad! - Cheol Soo!

- Dad... - My gosh.

Hey, over there. Get her!

Goodness.

- Dad... - Gosh.

Hurry.

Come on. Get her already.

Hurry down there. Get her.

Come on. Get a hold of her.

Where did she go?

Darn it.

Hey, over there.

Careful.

This is wrong.

This is just wrong!

I'm good.

I'd rather not make time...

to have grilled pork belly with strangers.

You guys should at least say hello.

You wouldn't recognize each other on the street...

and you should know your aunt and cousins.

I'd rather not meet them in this state I'm in.

I won't thank you for the 1,300 dollars you left for me.

Buy some meat for your kids to eat.

Instead of only feeding them leftover tteokbokki,

grill them some meat.

How else will they be able to grow taller?

We both know why you ended up so short.

It wasn't the lack of food...

but the lack of parental love that prohibited my growth.

Now, please get going.

Are Shin Tong and Bang Tong doing well?

They must be since I haven't seen any obituaries.

Aren't you in touch?

We don't have the spare time for that...

being busy making a living for ourselves.

I'm the guilty party here.

Bang Gi, I'll get going then.

Just a second.

What's this?

It's for the girl. You said she's my sister.

Did you have to name her Ttu Gi though?

Bang Gi was bad enough.

Give her plenty to eat so she can grow tall.

Who do you think she takes after?

She can't miss her growth spurt.

I'm sorry for not being tall enough.

I'm glad you're talking to me though.

Here she comes.

What did I tell you about borrowing money from loan sharks?

The world just never gives Dad and me a chance.

How about you guys?

That's not the problem here.

You can say that again.

I'm his ugly duckling, aren't I?

He's never that way with you two.

You're not a kid anymore.

You can say that again.

Why do you think I took up martial arts?

Do you remember the haircut I had?

Mom took me to a barber's, gave me a boy's buzz cut,

dressed me like a boy, and told me to say I'm a boy.

I took up martial arts to beat the kids who made fun of me.

The one who wanted a son wasn't Grandma or Dad.

It was Mom.

She said she wouldn't have had me if she knew I were a daughter.

She accused me of making her life miserable!

I hated being teased all the time,

so I wanted to doll myself up.

I liked the attention I received on social media.

Being the black sheep of our family,

I loved how people doted on me online!

I had no idea. I really didn't know.

I'm sorry, Gwang Tae.

I'm going to change my name, you know.

Hye Bin, Eun Hee, and Won Hee. How pretty are those names?

But mine is Gwang Tae for crying out loud.

Why not just call me Dong Tae instead?

Buk Eo would have been a nice choice too.

Stop changing the subject with your name, okay?

Go home and beg for Dad's forgiveness.

No. I'm not going back home.

I won't until I find success.

Thanks to Gong Chae, I'm being treated like a king.

Why not order the same dish to make it easier for him?

It's funny how someone your age only likes Korean food.

Korean food is the best.

Don't make noises when eating.

I grew up eating dirt on the ground.

Also, we never had a dining table.

We'd set food on newspaper on the floor...

and ate as we clunked heads.

I hate sitting this far apart during meals.

Can't we stop the rags to riches act?

What did you just say?

(Lee Gwang Tae)

- We're eating. - Hello?

No phones at the table!

Yes. What is it?

Heo Ki Jin! You little...

He doesn't listen to me anymore.

What has he been up to lately?

What he's been up to? I haven't the faintest clue, sir.

Gwang Tae.

You should eat first.

You must be starving by now.

Did you come into some money?

Let's just say that I did.

I can't even go Dutch with you anymore,

so I apologize in advance.

My dad came at me with a broom.

I can't believe they came to my house.

If I had known, I would've stopped them.

They're done for.

In what way? You're on a short leash too.

I could at least beg on your behalf.

Loan sharks are absolute animals.

Not all of them.

Here.

You wait and see. I'll make a name for myself.

I'll find success and shove it in my dad's face.

Wait till you see what the youngest daughter...

of a ruined noble family can do.

You were thrilled about the barbecue party,

so what happened?

I'll tell you some other time.

I'd like to make you laugh, but I'm short on funny stories.

Has the gas passed?

Well, not yet.

Not even when I do this or that.

Not even this or that...

The gas passed. Hurrah!

It passed.

I bet we're the only ones who are delighted by a fart.

Still, I made you laugh.

Making a run for it won't lessen the smell, you know.

Hello.

I'm here for the ring that my sister sold yesterday.

What I regret the most is the fact that I never got you a ring.

Why don't you try this on?

Here we go.

Does the suit fit you well?

Yes.

I said I'd go home. Why did you take me here?

This is uncomfortable.

You don't have anyone to cook for you at home.

I'll be fine. It's just an appendectomy.

Still, it's surgery.

It's a big deal that you have a cut.

Now that you farted,

eat as much as you like even though this isn't much.

- It is so simple. - You ungrateful punk.

You should get married.

Your wife would take good care of you.

You should start a restaurant.

I can't start a restaurant just because I'm a good cook.

Think of Paik Jong Won. It's not just about people's tastes.

He also cares about people's feelings.

That's what it takes to run a restaurant.

I agree.

How long will you be off?

The chairman says I can take a few days off,

but I'll go back to work.

Every man and his dog says that they are chairmen.

People used to say they were CEOs.

And now, about 9 out of 10 people think they are chairmen.

So did you give up becoming a singer?

Just quit. If it's not going well, that means you're not good enough.

It's not like I can become a singer overnight.

Then will you become a singer after I die?

I feel bad for your mom who prayed for your success day and night...

and for your youth.

You're 32 now.

You have no right to say that.

When I asked you for the academy fee,

you just criticized me for entering the show business.

If I took the lessons back then,

I wouldn't have turned out like this.

I was always busy making a living.

How would I afford the lessons?

I ended up like this struggling on my own.

You didn't even support me.

It's just that you're not talented enough. Why blame me?

If only you invested at least a quarter of what you got him on me.

Investment, my foot.

You were dumb since you were little.

You were even bad at your books. What do you know?

All you do is compare yourself with your brother.

Just go home.

I was about to leave.

You and I can never get along.

Tell me about it. It's you who took me here.

Now I blame myself for bringing you here.

And I blame myself for coming here with you.

That punk. Why is he upset when I say what's right?

He's quick in temper, so he must be more frustrated.

But it's been years.

I bet it's killing him.

Did Bang Gi say no?

I guess he feels awkward.

He didn't want to come just to eat some pork belly.

But he gave me 30 dollars saying it's for Ttu Gi.

He sounds sweet.

He sells tteokbokki...

and works as a waiter at a barbecue restaurant.

He even works as a chauffeur at night.

He's not well-educated and has three children.

So he's struggling to make ends meet.

Taeng Ja.

- Yes? - The rice cake store owner's son.

What do you want to do if we find him?

Bong Ja, I once had wicked thoughts about that.

Every time things got tough,

I blamed him.

I even thought...

I would find him and commit suicide after killing him.

Every time I think about Bang Gi having hard times,

I feel that way.

If it weren't for him,

I wouldn't have...

run away from home and ruined my life like that.

Do you even remember his face?

No.

I clearly remember what happened that day,

but I don't remember his face or name.

Me neither. And he must've gotten old.

I wouldn't recognize him even if I saw him on the street.

It's long enough to forget even my friend's face.

It's been over 40 years.

Do you think that punk is doing fine?

No way. It would be so unfair...

if a guy like him is well off.

I bet, as a human being, he'd sometimes...

regret what he did...

feeling guilty.

I tried to forgive him like that.

Only then I could feel at ease.

But why are you asking that all of a sudden?

What? No reason.

Let's go to sleep.

(Shining under Starlight)

Hello, how are you?

I'm not fine.

And Gwang Tae isn't here.

I know.

You're the one who should pay back Gwang Tae's loan.

What are you talking about?

You gave the money to Gwang Tae, not me.

You're Gwang Tae's father.

So you are collectively responsible for her loan.

How could a high school girl think of getting a private loan?

Don't you think that's your responsibility?

Is this what I deserve?

This is wrong.

I don't care whether you get the money from Gwang Tae or not.

You darn idiot.

Darn idiot? Well...

Then, her sister.

Don't be ridiculous.

Bye.

Can't we at least drink with some beef?

Cheol Soo, about the stimulus fund.

What did you do with the money?

I ate beef with it.

Will they give us more money?

People like us can't eat beef otherwise.

Hey, have you ever not missed your father?

Why would you bring up my dad when I'm talking about beef?

I'm the eldest son of an eldest son,

but I didn't serve as one.

I didn't even finish college,

and I just worked at construction sites.

How devastated my dad must have been...

to see all that?

If he were alive, I would've cried in his arms.

I want to cry in my mom's arms.

But my dad didn't say anything.

Even when he heard that I went to Saudi Arabia to make money,

he didn't say a word. He just left like that.

With tears.

When he passed away,

I couldn't even watch by his bed.

I didn't even get to look after him.

I'm being punished for all that now.

I'm old enough to see my grandchild,

but I'm just busy covering for my three children.

Now I know how my dad was feeling.

Still, your dad was well treated as the eldest son in the family.

But my mom suffered all her life.

This was her last word.

"Dol Se, I want to eat flatfish sashimi."

"Why would you want to eat flatfish when we lost our roof..."

"and doors to a typhoon?"

If I knew she'd pass away,

I would've bought her flatfish no matter what.

Even if I was blown away, I would still be in Korea.

Cheol Soo, don't make fun of me.

Mom!

Mom!

Dad!

- Mom. - Dad.

- Dad. - Mom.

Dad.

Will you stop calling your dad?

Why? You call your mom,

and I call my dad. What's the problem?

I don't like hearing the word dad.

I'm sick of my dad.

What are you so sick of?

He just sweated his children all his life.

He'd always tell me to cut fodder, make cattle feed,

thresh beans, and harvest sesame seeds.

When I came back home...

after serving in the military for three years,

do you know what he said to me?

What did he say?

He told me to apply dung-manure to the field.

How could he say that to his son who just finished his military service?

I bet I'm the only one who manured the farm in the military uniform.

I don't want to shed a drop of tear for my dad.

Don't be like that.

Your father was a good man.

I guess he was nice to you.

And I hold a lot of grudges against you.

What did I do?

I got you rice crusts and some snacks.

You ate all the delicious things in my house, you punk.

Did you forget it already?

You remember we were swept away by a flood...

while trying to catch fish?

We were trying to catch fish with a net like this.

Then we fell down in the strong current.

So we were swept away...

floundering and yelling, "Help! Help!"

And my dad shouted, "Cheol Soo!"

Then he swam straight to you...

and got you out of the water first.

While his own son was drowning.

I hate you when I think of the past.

What's the point of saying all that?

It's our fault that we were born as sons.

Hey, eat this.

Forget it. I'll eat beef later.

Don't be like that.

Eat this and stop being like that.

Stop being what?

Will you talk more clearly?

You were going to become a Korean teacher.

This is just wrong.

You're suffocating me.

Ms. Manager, this is my older sister.

Nice to meet you.

Hello. We're in the middle of a thank-you sale...

and are quite busy.

You'll work only when they're busiest.

She's good at this.

I'll teach her what to do.

These are the new releases, those are the best sellers.

All their prices are on the tags.

How do you like being treated when you shop for clothes?

Do exactly just that, okay? Bye.

Don't worry.

Your gums are itchy because you're teething.

Are they itchy?

Mother, let's get some fresh air.

Shall we?

Blessing, we're going out.

Welcome. Come this way.

These are the new releases and these are the best sellers.

You're pretty and will look good in anything.

- Look around. - Mother, they have pretty clothes.

- Do they? - Come this way.

They must be on sale.

Let's look around.

- They're so pretty. - How about this?

- This? - Excuse me.

- You haven't been by in a while. - Hello.

Can you pick out some clothes for my mother-in-law?

She used to be an actor,

so she dresses young for her age and she's still fit.

Stop it.

I see. Take a look at these items here.

You'll buy me something? Don't spend your money.

You make money to spend it.

I can afford this much.

You should wear something like this.

They don't have this in my size.

They should make bigger sizes.

I don't like it when a woman's too thin.

She needs to be fleshy to look nice,

not stick-thin.

She might think she's pretty, but she isn't at all.

Mother, let's pick out some clothes, then have lunch.

Let's. What do you want to eat?

Naengmyeon, your favorite.

- What? - Okay?

How about this?

Oh, it's really pretty.

Try it on, Mother.

Shall I?

- Is this pretty? - Yes.

You two seem so close.

You're always calling her "mother."

She does. My daughter-in-law is the joy of my life.

You're embarrassing me, Mother.

You spent too much today.

I said I make money to spend it.

Mother. I'm sorry about the other day.

I felt extra upset that day.

I know how you felt. I'm a woman too.

You went out in heels which you rarely do,

and he left you alone to eat samgyetang.

If I were you, I'd have upset the bowl and not eaten it.

You're too understanding.

How did you manage to stay and finish the food?

It'd be a waste of money not to.

You're so frugal. That's how you saved up.

About Blessing's dad.

I think he still has feelings for that woman.

I know that...

I'm not as pretty as her,

and I'm not as charming.

It's all makeup. She isn't pretty without it.

She's just thin.

My son prefers plump women.

I'm not plump. I'm fat.

I can't drop the weight.

I still have the extra weight I put on when I had Blessing.

Were you slim before you had him?

Well...

Wait and see. He'll come to you.

You won in the end.

You're right, Mother. I won.

You make great noodles, but you can't control your husband?

He's as tough as these noodles and can't be controlled.

What about your strength?

You're more than able to pin him down.

You're right, Mother.

Hello.

It's been a while.

Hello, Chairman.

Why didn't you take a few more days off?

I'm fine now.

Are you practicing your trot songs?

Trot is all about the flavor of the tune.

The guests say you lack something.

Because you were into rock.

I'll work hard.

Don't work hard. Work well.

Bye, sir.

Are you okay?

No problems.

I'll drop by after work.

Call ahead. I'll make something nice.

Perfect.

I will slay you.

I Botoxed out my wrinkles...

and got a new suit.

You will fall for me hard.

I'm the great Han Dol Se.

Darn it.

When did you ever care about me?

I'm moving to an island.

Why do I care whether someone moves to an island or not?

Bong...

Hurry home, Dad.

He's home.

- Daddy's home. - Your dad's home.

- I'm home. - Have you eaten?

Yes. Did you?

We ate long ago.

She bought me clothes today.

Do you need anything, Mr. Bae?

Do you want tea? Or fruit?

No, thanks. Blessing's still up.

He just woke up.

Peekaboo.

Yes?

- What's wrong with you? - What do you mean?

You only smiled at Blessing then zoomed into this room.

Sleep with her from now on.

When will you have a daughter?

What daughter? Blessing's more than enough.

The fortune-teller said you'd have two kids.

Do you still have feelings for your ex?

Do you?

We got married because we loved each other,

and 15 years isn't a short period.

This didn't happen because I fell out of love.

The storm of circumstances pulled us apart.

To be honest, I feel like I'm staying at a friend's.

I can't settle down.

Maria didn't do anything wrong.

It's not a crime to have a baby.

Can you stop pushing me?

I come here because of you, but it's hard on me too.

Do you know how bad my mother feels?

She thought I was a flawed son who couldn't have children.

She thought I had problems and tiptoed around you.

You're a bad woman.

Don't cry. You have no right to.

I'm on my way now.

I bet you're hungry. What would you like to eat?

I'll be the chef today. What would you like to have?

Kimchi pancakes.

Okay. That's my specialty.

I'll see you at your diner.

My gosh.

Where were you at?

I went out for some fresh air.

- What about you? - I have things to do at the diner.

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

What is it?

- What's up? - Where are you?

My shift at the pizza place just ended.

Can you get over here? Gwang Nam's drinking.

That's bad.

Tell me about it. Meet me at the diner.

Sorry, but I'll have to take a rain check.

It's my sister.

Gwang Nam, call us if you want to drink next time.

Don't drink alone. You know why.

I'm sorry.

I know you're worried I'll take pills in a drunken state.

I thought you were doing well.

You were smiling and all, so I figured you were all right.

I had no idea you were suffering.

I'm sorry, Gwang Nam.

Same here.

I just couldn't sleep, that's all.

I figured the alcohol would put me to sleep.

The manager said you left the clothing store early.

Was the work too much for you?

During my shift,

Byun Ho's mother came in with that woman.

- My gosh. - Goodness.

Did they see you?

No,

I hid.

My heart dropped at the sight of them...

and it felt as if my face was on fire.

Before I knew it, I was hiding from them.

Even though I did nothing wrong.

The divorce didn't seem real at first.

The process was relatively short,

so I figured I was suffering from a blow to the head.

But now, it's all sinking in.

I was jealous of the woman...

who came in with Byun Ho's mom...

to buy her clothes and then went to eat naengmyeon afterward.

"What have I done?"

"I can't undo what happened."

"Where did it all go wrong?"

"How did it get so twisted?"

"At what point could I have acted differently?"

Gwang Nam, why dwell on what's in the past?

It won't help you one bit.

He said that food was the issue.

It's what led him to her.

Food?

I was dumped by a man over the matter of food...

which I couldn't accept or forgive him for.

But now I understand...

and it makes me seem absolutely pathetic.

Would things have changed if I had cooked for him?

He said it was about food,

but he means more than that, doesn't he?

He did his best as my husband,

but I didn't play my role as his wife.

Would things have changed if I had been better to his mom?

Could a child have changed our dynamic?

We only have two national holidays a year.

Why couldn't I have been nicer to his mother when I visited?

I would pout all day and make up excuse after excuse...

so that I could get out of dish-washing duties.

I never called her since I didn't have anything to say...

and I made her walk on eggshells around me.

All in the name of making my life easier.

Losing everything that I had...

revealed all of my flaws.

And in the end,

it led to our parents slapping the other person's child.

We finally crossed a line we shouldn't have.

But still...

Gwang Sik, Gwang Tae,

maybe I gave him too easy of a divorce.

I shouldn't have let him go this way.

Would he come back to me if I asked him to?

- Gwang Nam... - Gwang Nam...

I know it's impossible now.

It's too late.

It won't matter.

What do I do?

What am I going to do?

Can I get you anything?

No. Don't worry about me and go to bed.

If you're hungry, how about some noodles?

No, I'm good.

Please let me know if you need anything.

- I'll stay up for you. - Good night.

You should have another child before you get any older.

Ms. Shin.

Ms. Shin? You can't sleep here.

Ms. Shin, please get up. Ms. Shin?

Ms. Shin, please get up.

Are you in a good mood?

Blessing, say bye to your dad.

"Dad, earn a lot of money!"

Blessing, I'm heading off to work.

Why aren't you seeing him off?

Have a good day.

Ms. Shin, meet me for lunch today.

We'll grab a bite to eat.

Did you hear that? He invited you to lunch.

Really?

Yes, I'll see you later.

Go and get ready. Doll yourself up.

Mother...

Stop stealing from my plate and just take some.

Come on. Don't be like that.

One might think that you have feelings for me.

As if. I already told you...

how I hate old men with thin wallets.

How is that your only criteria when it comes to men?

What else should I consider?

You're clueless, aren't you?

Hear me out. When it comes to men...

Isn't Ttu Gi coming today?

She will in a bit.

What does she do during the day?

She attends kindergarten.

Apart from eating, that's the only thing she has to do.

But she still complains about going all the time.

Maybe she's having trouble adjusting.

Adjusting to places is her superpower though.

Seven years in foster care taught her well...

and she's probably ruling her class there.

Or she could be someone's lackey.

One can't know for sure.

Saying things like that is what makes you a jerk.

Why bother talking to her when you only upset her?

Looking down on me like this will bite you in the behind someday.

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

I'm not either!

(Garbage Disposal)

(Ilmiri Jjimdak)

Are you back from kindergarten?

It was a long day.

Is kindergarten that stressful?

The kids are way below my level.

Has my mom been doing a good job here?

- She has. - Can you also speak...

in the Gyeongsang dialect?

I used to live in Busan.

No wonder we click!

Gong Chae, I have a question.

Are people born good?

Well... What do you think?

Life has taught me that it's not the case.

- Same here. - Still,

it'd be wiser to believe that people are good, right?

- Right? - You're such a copycat.

You don't sound like kids your age, you know.

Speaking bluntly makes me seem that way.

But I'm still a seven-year-old.

(Shining Sun Fish Market)

Why are you here? Did the guilt get to you?

As if.

I just wanted to know if the suit was all right.

It is.

I'll relay the message, so run along.

I will.

Always so petty. Let me finish hanging this.

What did you think about the suit? Nice, wasn't it?

I never got a good look.

All I saw was you soaked in water.

What was with the suit though? It's not you.

Was it for the eel lady?

Don't be ridiculous.

It was you I dressed up for.

You seemed to like suits,

so I bought one to prove myself to you.

I got Botox shots for you...

and got myself a suit.

You probably wanted to look good for the eel lady.

The sound of her gives me a headache, you know.

I'm done eating grilled eel too.

I bet you missed me. Be honest with yourself.

Miss you, my foot.

I know how you feel.

Not being able to see me probably fed your curiosity.

"Is he dead or alive?"

"Did he leave for the island or is he dating another woman?"

I'm the man who knows you best.

And I'm the only man who can handle you.

I'm the only one for you in this world.

As if.

From this moment on, I'll only march toward you.

There's no one to be cautious around,

so it'll be all green lights from now on.

All that will lead you to is your death.

Gosh.

What are you saying?

We're asking if you've crossed the bridge completely.

I did on my way to work today.

You are darn frustrating. Are you sure you're a lawyer?

We're asking if things between you and Gwang Nam are over...

in a way that you can never come back from.

Oh, that.

You just asked if I had crossed the bridge, so...

This has nothing to do with Gwang Nam.

We just wanted to know where you stand.

We want your honest opinion.

I'm sorry.

Gwang Sik, let's go.

But...

What more must you confirm?

He's sorry that he has crossed completely over the bridge.

Let's get out of here.

Darn him. He's sorry?

At least we confirmed it. Let's go.

Wait a second.

Are you kidding me? I could just...

No, don't. They're as good as married now,

so it's over.

Darn it.

Now it's Gwang Nam's turn to quickly move on,

but I don't know how we can help.

Gwang Sik, how about this?

Gosh, that's hot.

Please enjoy, darling.

You too, Ms. Shin.

Your mother told you not to call me Ms. Shin anymore.

I'll get there.

I've always been a slow learner, you see.

I know.

Last night...

Well, it took me by surprise.

I need some time,

but I'll get there.

I'd appreciate your patience, Ms. Shin.

Here you go.

It sure is a good day today.

This will definitely go in my journal.

I have no meetings this weekend, so I'll head home early.

Really?

I'll make something delicious for you then.

What would you like?

Anything will do.

Then,

I'll steam some blue crabs. What do you say?

Sounds good.

Gwang Nam, are you all right?

Yes, I'm good.

Should I get you some medicine?

No, I'll handle it.

Are you sure you're all right?

Yes, I'm good.

Gwang Nam, it's time for my shift at the pizza place,

so I'm heading out.

Got it.

See? What did I tell you?

I know my son.

It may take him a while, but he always gets there.

Mother, I'll steam some blue crabs this weekend.

Sure thing.

That reminds me.

My cousin's been dying to see Blessing.

I'll take him and spend the night at her place.

You know what I mean, right?

Of course.

Maybe Blessing will finally get a sister.

Come over here.

Which do you think is the best?

These are wedding invitation samples.

Take your pick.

I'm good.

Just take a look at them.

I said I'm good. I'd rather go back to the States.

What's so bad about her?

You'll never meet a girl as good as she is.

Her parents are university professors...

Yes, I know.

She holds piano recitals with her own money for fun...

and all she cares about is our building.

It's the same with all women.

I'm telling you once again...

that a marriage with her will never happen for me.

Never!

What's with him these days?

Is he back to his old habits?

I haven't the faintest clue, sir.

Why is it that you never have the faintest clue?

Darn it.

I want you to do some digging about him.

Find out whom he meets and what he's up to.

Yes, sir.

Hello. It's been a while.

What are you doing this weekend? Can we meet?

Okay.

- Who was that? - Your friend.

I said you can't date him.

He's just playing with you.

And I'm playing with him.

What do you think I am?

When and where are you going to meet him?

It's a secret.

What?

Then she'll bump against the wall.

Right at the moment, you should put your hand on the wall.

And she will be intimidated.

- I'm home. - Good work.

I'm not interested in a loser like you.

Don't even think about it.

I only care about good looks and buildings.

I can't tell her the truth or let her be like this.

This is frustrating.

You're not asleep, are you?

- What? - Have you tried...

the kiss thing?

I tried a dog's tongue and a snake's tongue,

but she found it filthy.

Then...

Do you know the wall thing?

It's the highlight of dating.

I can give you a plausible explanation.

- Go ahead. - Well...

You know a woman...

would fall for a man who gives her hope for the future.

- Hope for the future? - Yes.

You should make her think that her life will be a bed of roses.

Then she will believe that you are dreaming of the future with her.

So what should I do to make her feel that way?

Look.

You should drink some soju first.

Then call her in front of her house.

"Come on out. I'm in front of your house." And hang up.

Then she will be very curious.

"Why all of a sudden?" So she will come out.

She will smell of shampoo, and you'll reek of soju.

That sounds ridiculous.

Just do it. Then she will be a little intimidated.

"What? Why do I smell soju?"

She doesn't understand. It's just strange.

Then you go near her. And she will...

slowly step back.

You go closer to her and say,

"I want to have you."

"Move in with me."

- All of a sudden? - Just say it.

Then you bang on the wall with your right hand.

The wall will give way.

And she will give way too.

All in a heap.

The woman and the wall?

Just do it.

At the moment, you turn away and walk.

Then you stop walking in a sexy posture.

The important point is your backside.

That's the point.

You should do 500 squats beforehand.

You should show the lines of your body.

Then she will completely fall for you.

- Is that it? - Yes.

I should drink and go to her house.

I ask her to move in with me and hit the wall to tear it down.

Then I turn around and show her my backside?

That's about it.

Where did you learn stuff like that?

It's all from my experience.

If there's anything you want to know, ask me.

I'll give you a plausible explanation.

Forget it.

Who is she? You don't like the girl from Seoul National University.

It's a secret.

I resented you, Dad

I didn't want to live like you

(We sell boxed meals.)

My goodness.

Gosh, you're so mean.

How dare you try to startle me?

I'm alert to every sound from the door.

All right. Today's menu is...

samgyetang.

That looks amazing.

Here. This is for samgyetang.

Gosh, what is this?

They say if you buy someone shoes, they run away.

I was afraid you'd run away,

so I got you these so you can come back in them.

I have something for you.

(Masters of Trot)

A trot CD?

Become a singer.

That's what you've worked hard for since you were little.

I heard you sing the other day.

You're too talented to give up.

I think your voice is better for trot songs than rock.

Will it work?

It will.

You're a musician, so you will make it soon.

You can try TV audition shows.

Oh, right.

The singer who sang this song made a big hit.

He did like 15 TV commercials.

I know.

How could he be so lucky?

Promise me you will try this.

I promise.

You have to.

You're the first person who supported me...

and trusted my dream after my mom.

I'll be sure to make it happen.

From this moment on, I'll only march toward you.

You'll be my baby forever.

Here. It's hot.

Just eat it.

Stop giving it to me. Let's eat.

When we went to the sea, you asked how much I remember.

(I can't be the first customer and not pay.)

Do you still have this?

I don't know why, but I just wanted to keep it.

I felt like I had to.

I wasn't even divorced back then.

I guess you liked me from back then.

That's not true. It was just my first day.

That's what business owners do.

You never let me beat you in arguments.

What did you save my number as on your phone?

I haven't saved it yet. I'm afraid Gwang Tae would find out.

I can't save it as your name nor Unit 301.

Me neither.

I didn't know what I should save your number as.

I wanted something good.

Then let's do it together now.

Okay.

Did you do it?

I did.

1, 2, and 3.

Here.

(Number 1)

This is amazing.

Since I was born,

I've never been number one to anyone.

That's what happens to second-born children.

We have so many things in common.

From now on, you're my number one.

You too.

I'll start this now.

When it has to come to an end,

you end it first.

I'll do the suffering.

Don't talk about ending things.

I feel sad already.

Only if.

I wish I could stay longer.

- But I have to go. - Why?

For overnight deliveries.

I have some parcels to deliver.

Let's go.

- Are you coming with me? - Yes.

- Hurry. - Well...

Let's just go.

(Masters of Trot)

It's real, real, real, real

It's totally real

The real deal is here

- Ye Seul! - It's real

I got you.

I get to ride all sorts of trucks because of you.

I don't want to beat around the bush now that I'm 34.

To be honest, each time I prepared for the trip to the sea,

"How far should we go tonight?"

I even packed a toothbrush and underwear.

Should you be this cute?

Listen to this.

When a man and a woman meet,

they eat out, watch a movie,

hold hands, kiss, and go on a trip.

Then they spend a night together.

Shall we do that backward?

For real?

You want to sleep together first?

That's what I was going to say by the sea to seduce you.

But I lost the chance to because of your appendix.

My darn appendix.

I lack in many ways.

I don't have a degree.

I only finished middle school and I haven't accomplished anything.

You went to a good college...

and became a civil servant in one try.

You're out of my league.

So what? I'm a divorcee.

I'll do whatever it takes to succeed.

When did we start speaking so casually?

I think...

it was after you farted.

That's so embarrassing.

This won't do. You should fart too.

No way. I will never fart in front of you.

What does that make me, then? I'm so ashamed now.

Farter.

Oh, come on.

(A Spoonful of Moonlight)

You aren't going home?

I have to clean up. I left everything as is.

I'll help.

No, it's time for my aunt to go to work.

She walks by. You should go.

I wish we could be together all day.

I do too.

You have to work later. Get some sleep.

Go on.

See you.

Oh, dear.

It's real, real, real, real

It's totally real

Dad.

What are you doing here?

I live in the area.

I'm coming home after a dawn shift.

What about you?

I'm bringing someone some vegetables.

Did you move to a place nearby?

Yes. Over there.

You're not rushed, are you? Lead the way to your place.

I should see where you're staying.

Is it near here?

Yes. It's this building.

What? This building?

Yes. Why?

It's nothing. Go on inside.

Come in. You came all this way.

No. I have to deliver these now.

(Shining under Starlight)

Bye, then.

You're running late, Unit 301.

Hello.

(Shining under Starlight)

(Masters of Trot)

You will make it as a singer. Good luck.

I'll spend the night at home and come back late tomorrow.

You know, right?

Yes, Mother.

Let's go. Come along, Blessing.

Let's go home.

Get married?

Yes. Gwang Tae and I talked about it,

and we think you should get married.

You can't just get married because you want to.

It's not like I'm seeing someone.

Matchmaking companies.

I don't want to do that.

I'd feel like a commodity,

and I'll seem desperate to marry.

I can't just meet anyone.

They're quite reliable these days.

I'll help you register.

I think you should remarry instead of struggling too much.

Find someone successful. They'll line up for you.

Do you two think I'm trash that needs to be cleaned out?

Why would you say that?

Can you take what we say at face value and not so twisted?

I know why you two are saying this,

but it's not nice.

I know that...

this is all I can do right now.

All I can do is sell my body.

Don't put it like that.

That's not what we mean.

Isn't it?

Before I'm too old, before my value drops even further,

you want me to sell myself off.

You're struggling, so we want you to...

meet a successful man and be well-off.

To be honest, it's been a drag since you got divorced.

We lost a lawyer brother-in-law.

It feels like we're doing even worse because you got divorced.

If you marry a rich guy, Dad can relax,

and we benefit too.

What's wrong with it if it helps everyone?

Byun Ho's happily married to someone else.

You should marry someone better and show him.

Make him feel bad.

I preferred it when you rolled your eyeballs at us.

That's enough.

You didn't see what I saw.

He walked arm-in-arm to eat with the kid's mom.

It was an eyesore.

When?

When did you see that?

Well...

We went to see Byun Ho.

Why would you need to see him?

What are you two up to?

What did you say to him?

Don't get so angry.

Did you tell him what I said...

No way. We didn't mention that.

We didn't say you have regrets.

What is wrong with you two?

I can't tell you anything.

Why do you make me feel so miserable?

- Gwang Nam. - Gwang Nam.

Stupid me.

Gwang Nam.

You bet.

I'll free up my schedule if you command.

Even I think I'm pathetic.

Even my sisters say that to me.

I don't think your sisters meant anything ill by it.

I know that.

I can't make a living and I'm useless,

so I should just get married. I know what they mean.

It would hurt to hear it from anyone and I heard it from my sisters.

That's why it's worse.

Gwang Nam.

I'm just ruining the mood.

I wanted to treat you to a meal to say thank you.

Why bring me to an expensive place?

Don't worry about the bill.

You're with a man and the man should pay.

I like how young people these days split the bill.

Then everyone feels dignified.

That's called being's stingy, not manly.

You were always the one to treat others.

You always treated us after our golf outings.

The women adored you.

Even then,

I had eyes only for you.

Do you still play well?

You used to give me great tips.

Golf is just like life.

If the driver hits perfectly, the iron doesn't.

If the first stroke reaches far, you mess up on the green.

That's why you know about golf when the gloves come off,

and you learn about life when the shoes come off.

Let's play one day. Get some fresh air.

I can't afford to play golf now.

That was my past life.

Still, chatting with you makes me feel better.

The fortune-teller said that his second child is a girl.

The ball was hit,

but could not be found which drove us crazy.

My caddie and I searched everywhere.

It turned out to be in the hole cup.

And there was my first hole-in-one. Can you believe that?

Can you excuse me for a second?

Are you all right? Should I get you some medicine?

No, I think I should head home.

(For indigestion)

(Revolutionary Sisters)

Ms. Lee Gwang Nam, please fill out this form...

and take a sample of your urine.

I want you. Live with me.

Before we get any older,

let's try an open relationship for once.

What are you two doing over here?

Why are you picking at your food?

I don't have an appetite...

and my stomach's a little queasy.

If you were married, I'd have guessed a pregnancy.
