(Call Log: Hillbilly)

Aren't you cold?

What if you get even sicker?

Get in the car.

Oh my gosh!

You're burning up!

Bong-Soon.

Can you give me some time?

I'll somehow decide what I should do with you, and with myself.

I'm sorry it came to this.

And I feel bad for everyone.

But I'll try my best to make a decision soon, so I don't need to feel bad as much.

Mr. Chang?

Mr. Chang!

Mr. Chang! Mr. Chang!

What? He fainted?

Why?

I'm sorry. I don't know the details.

What? But that's your job, Guard Kim!

To be honest, he disappeared yesterday.

I've confirmed that he went home last night , but I think he came outside again.

Where is he right now?

Go to work I'll do it.

It's my job.

Let go.

I said, go to work!

This place is under security.

Only the Youngshik's family can enter without permission.

- Get out. - Let me go!

I'll go after I see him wake up.

I can't leave a sick person behind.

Let me stay just a little longer, okay?

What makes you think you can do that?

Didn't you hear me?

This place is for authorized persons only!

Get out.

Go.

Are you okay?

I'm okay. Just go.

Go, Bong-Soon.

But...

I think you should go.

Oh my gosh.

How did you know he was...

Were you with him?

Well...

Where were you yesterday?

Are you out of your mind?

Don't you know that even the tiniest details get reported?

It's only a matter of time before the First Lady finds out.

I know you can't help falling for someone.

But you're the Youngshik.

I don't know about everyone else, but you know you're not supposed to do this!

That hillbilly Bong-Soon will be the only one who gets hurt.

Where are you going with this?

I don't know.

I don't know where I'm going, or where I can go with this.

I tried to avoid it.

I tried not to let it come to this.

But... but...

I won't take too long.

I'm not going to avoid this anymore.

- I'll make a decision. - I'm a guard.

If a bullet comes our way, I'll thrust myself to protect you.

But if Bong-Soon was here right now...

I know I shouldn't, but I'll probably find myself protecting that hillbilly, not you.

I don't care if it's you.

I won't let that hillbilly get hurt like this.

Never.

I heard their prime minister is a huge fan of Dom Perignon.

I think we should plan our recipe to go with the champagne.

Dom Perignon!

No need to think further. I have the entire recipe.

First, lobster sushi with caviar on top.

That'll go with Vintage '95.

Next, a cold lobster consomme with cauliflower cream on the side.

That's Dom Perignon Rose '92.

The main dish should be roasted lamb and herb salad.

That could go with Dom Perignon Enotheque Vintage '88.

He should eat Korean food while he's in Korea.

We're going with Korean.

What?

Korean food and Champagne? Let's just play it safe.

Don't just use a recipe that's already there. Use your head.

Let's give him a taste of Korea.

We're diplomats too, remember?

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

What's a Don Perry? Do you know what Vintage is?

Sounds like a cheap wine. They said it's Vintage.

By the way, why are we diplomats?

I don't know. Maybe the Presidential cafeteria is under diplomatic service.

I heard you're transferring. To where?

I don't know.

But you just got transferred. Is something wrong?

Hey Ju-Yup, take it easy, okay?

Just don't run one lap ahead of us, please? It's embarrassing!

Don't worry, you have Bong-Gi. You two can jog together.

Ready!

Are you being competitive because of Miss Bong-Soon, by any chance?

Just delete those pictures.

I was in hurdles in high school.

Don't try too hard.

You'll only get hurt if you try to match my speed.

Ready!

Everyone move!

- Hold the ice pack for him. - Okay.

Uh... thanks, anyways.

Huh? Okay.

Can I ask you a favor?

Please don't pop out everywhere I...

You're bleeding!

- You have a nosebleed! - I'm bleeding?

I'm okay.

Don't mind me. I'm not bleeding because of you.

How's your ankle?

Are you sure you don't need an X-ray?

Should we go to a bigger hospital? Do you want me to carry you?

Hi, Mrs. Ko.

Are you feeling better?

Yes.

I'm sorry. I think I was too hard on you.

No wonder you're sick.

I know you're hurting, and I know this is tough on you.

I can't look you straight in the face.

But what can we do?

We have to go through this.

Let's be wise.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

You want to sleep?

Okay, I'll sing it for you.

A girl who looks good in blue jeans.

A girl who doesn't get fat even when she eats a lot.

A girl who laughs at my joke even when it's not funny.

That's the kind of girl I want.

Shall we make pantries with white fish to go with '95 Vintage?

You didn't go home yet?

Why aren't you home either?

I'm putting together a recipe for the supper in two days.

What's this?

I made some cheese gratin.

Tell me how it tastes.

I don't know if it's good or not because I've never tried this before.

Let's see.

There's too much milk.

Bong-Soon, you weren't paying attention when you made this, right?

- What? - The ingredients took over.

The cheese has a voice of its own, and so does the butter.

Everyone has a voice, except for the cook.

A dish without the voice of the cook is no different...

... from the retort gratins from a convenience store.

You know what I'm talking about, right?

Chef Gang, can you teach me how to cook?

I want to do a good job, but it's frustrating because I don't know anything.

I want to learn properly.

How about one hour a day after work?

What? Is that a yes?

You promised!

You promised that you'll teach me!

Are you uncomfortable? The floor's...

Sir?

I'm sorry, but can we switch seats?

Why?

She's my girlfriend.

She's your girlfriend?

I guess I have to move, then.

Get some sleep.

Didn't get any sleep last night?

Are you coming down with the bird flu?

You look like a sick chicken.

You didn't sleep either?

No, I didn't.

Why?

I couldn't sleep because I was busy counting stars.

Liar...

There are no stars to count in Seoul.

Where have you been all this time?

I saw plenty of them.

(Mr. Chang)

I couldn't sleep because I was busy counting stars.

Oh my gosh, that undertaker is here again!

- He's here again! - Honey!

Ok-Hee!

- Three... - Honey!

Two... One!

Flimsy weakling.

Honey! Wait for me!

Hee! Wait for me!

Hee!

What kind of a woman walks that fast? Look at these sweats!

Of course I have to walk fast! An undertaker was following me!

That hurts! I'm so short of breath. I can die.

Sure, go ahead and die. Just drop dead.

I know you don't mean it.

That's the only thing I don't like about you.

You think I didn't mean that?

Just kill me, will ya? I'll just drop dead myself, okay?

What's the matter this time?

I told you not to talk to me anymore!

Let's go, Honey.

Go where?

Today's my mother's memorial. You need to make food for the service.

Hey, Bang Pil-Do!

Why do I need to cook for your mother's memorial?

I can't do it by myself. I don't know what to do.

Come and teach me, at least.

Otherwise, my mom might starve this year. Come on, Ok-Hee.

Then let her starve!

My mother's been starting during the past 23 years I spent with you!

Hey Pil-Do, have you ever put even a rotten cortina for my mother's memorial?

Have a sense of shame, man.

From now on, the Bangs can worry about their own memorial.

I'm free! Free!

Honey! Ok-Hee!

(Gift Certificate for a Free Meal)

Yo, Bro!

Sir!

Sir, my butt.

Is your height a metal spring or something? You've shrunk!

Did you take them off?

Why?

I took them off because I kept tripping when I was taking pictures.

Why?

Three cheers for your professionalism!

Why are you here?

Are you here to check if I wore heightening shoes or not?

No way! I stopped by because I missed you.

You know how much I like you!

Look, stop liking me.

Wait, isn't this a coupon for a free meal?

Huh?

What the? This is forgery, right?

I caught you red-handed! Wait a minute!

Counterfeit notes should be reported to 112, right?

I heard there's a $10,000 reward. Stay right there, and don't move an inch!

1.1.2. and... before I press the enter key, make a decision.

Would you like to go to jail, or share it with me?

Smart move.

Is it still good?

You can eat anything. Anything!

But why?

Are you short on cash these days?

Just tell me if you want to eat spaghetti. I'll buy you anytime! Anytime you want!

Before I throw everything in the trash, I'll just take one!

Just one to test with, to see how good you are.

Mr. Hyung-Do! This is Jin-Kyung!

Did you enjoy your lunch?

Why don't we go take pictures this weekend?

If your answer is yes, send me a picture of your handsome face.

If it's a no, then your cute duodenum!

Don't you think she's so cute?

She wants me to show her my duodenum if I'm going to say no!

Where's my duodenum?

I can't find it.

I guess I'll have to send her my picture instead One, two..

Mr. Hyung-Do!

Mr. Bong-Gi!

Miss Jin-Kyung, where should we go to take pictures?

Miss Jin-Kyung, are you a two-timer?

A two-timer? No way! Not when I have you!

I have no time.

Does that mean you went out with me just for the fun of it?

Yo, sis! Was I your toy?

What? ...Sis?

For appetizers, let's make pine nut gruel, cold crayfish...

... and wheat wraps to go with the Vintage '92.

Since he's a big fan of '88 Rose, we'll serve baked Spanish mackerel...

... roasted Kalbi, and an Ambrosia casserole as our highlight.

It'll be pleasing to the eye, displaying the dynamics of our food.

We even need to think of things like that when we prepare food?

Of course, it's for a foreign prime minister.

Each food has a diplomatic meaning behind it.

Just think of it as displaying Korea on a table this big.

What are you going to teach me, then?

We'll start with this.

Chef Gang!

You're still here?

I was trying to put a recipe together, too.

I see. What's up?

It offends me to see just anyone cook at the Presidential Residence kitchen.

I studied abroad for 3 years to work here.

Although I majored in French cuisine...

... I'm certified with Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and even Italian.

Even I can't learn from you personally, but from a few glances here and there.

I can't accept the fact that kitchen assistant like her...

... who's not even an official cook, is learning from you.

Then join us.

Huh?

From the appetizers on the list, let's make wheat wraps and cold crayfish?

Here's my recipe, and this is the information I gathered on our guest.

Use that to come up with a dish.

Look, I don't know much about wheat wraps, and I've never even tried crayfish.

How can I make that?

You said you'll teach me, but now you're...

Just follow the recipe.

Go ahead.

You added chicken.

Since he's a Westerner, I grafted wheat wraps with ravioli.

I added a little tomato sauce and Gorgonzola cheese.

Cheese and wine are a perfect match...

... and the unique aroma of blue cheese is appetizing.

And I used honey sauce.

What do you think?

You're better than me. Splendid!

Good idea, too.

Thank you! Thank you, Chef!

Why did you use seaweed and Kimchi when you can use better ingredients?

Huh?

I've been contemplating about how I can display Korea on a table...

... and the most common dish we have are seaweed and Kimchi.

They're too shabby to serve to a prime minister, huh?

Squash, ginkgo, walnut, chestnut, and jujube?

Is there any special reason for wrapping nuts?

Because your papers said the prime minister has asthma.

Why did you use plum sauce?

Plums are in season right now.

And they're good for relieving fatigue, and helps people digest.

I figured the Prime Minster will be tired...

... and have trouble digesting from the long flight.

Why? Did I do something wrong?

Come to the Presidential Residence.

Huh?

Instead of learning after work, just come and work here to learn.

Just come to work here tomorrow. I'll make the arrangements

But Chef Gang...

Miss Kang, I hope you'll help Miss Yeo Bong-Soon when she joins us.

Oh my gosh, this room's as small as a booger!

How can anyone breathe in here?

Goodness, no one uses furniture like this.

This place has nothing!

Even a robber will come and give charity for you.

Oh my gosh!

She's going to have back problems.

What kind of a bed sinks in like this?

These wallpapers look like they were taken from a motel in the 70's.

This doesn't look like a girl's room.

Does the roof leak?

It looks like it will. It doesn't leak, right?

Oh yeah!

This isn't much, but I thought it would be rude to come empty-handed.

Oh, you shouldn't have. You didn't have to.

Oh my gosh... Even the bathroom's outside.

Her butt must be freezing in the winter.

When I heard the President thinks of Yoon-Hee as his daughter...

I thought this place would be at least 90 sq ft. and ubiquitous.

Does the President know she's living like this?

Well, not the details.

But he does have a rough idea.

But Director, how come someone important like you is living here?

Think about your social standing. Just move to an apartment.

Should I put in a word to the President for you?

The house is crappy, but I do feel safe with three men in the house.

Not just any men, but we have two Blue House guards who serve the President.

By the way, what's your job?

What do you do, mister?

Why do you care where I work?

Are you taking a consensus?

I'm home. Bong-Hee, I'm home.

Yoon-Hee...

You're home.

Hi.

Did you eat? Have you had dinner?

As a mother, I think it's my duty to meet the people you live with.

So I came to introduce myself.

Now that you've introduced yourself, leave.

What? I'm not done introducing myself yet.

I just got here.

Since I'm here, might as well eat together.

Not here, but outside. We can eat outside.

It's on me.

Tell me if there's anything you'd like to eat.

Get out.

I said, get out!

Yoon-Hee...

Yoon-Hee?

My name is Bong-Soon, not Yoon-Hee.

Get out! Didn't you hear me say, get out?

I came because I missed you.

Your mother came because she misses you.

Now that we know we're both alive and well...

... we don't need to worry about each other anymore.

We got along fine without each other, so let's just stay that way.

I won't look for you anymore, so don't come knocking on my door anymore.

I can't do that!

You're right here in front of me!

How can a mom live without seeing her own daughter?

Yoon-Hee...

Forget it! Just get out!

- I said, get out! - Yoon-Hee, listen to your mother.

I searched all over for you! I thought you were dead.

I'm telling the truth! I looked all over for you!

Yoon-Hee! I really did look for you!

Let's go out.

Take a pick. Korean, Chinese, or Japanese?

What? You want Italian?

Okay, okay. I hear ya, I hear ya.

Let's go!

Fine, fine, let's go. We're going.

Congratulations on your 5th wedding anniversary.

Thank you for remembering our anniversary every year.

We only did what our president told us to do.

It's already been 5 years.

You can count on me to light 10 or 20 candles for you...

... as long as you two always stay happily together.

I'll take a picture. Sit next to each other.

We don't need a picture.

What? But you guys took one every year.

I think my wife is really hungry.

Can we get our food as soon as possible?

Yes, Sir.

Hey Ma'am.

Your husband's name is Chang Joon-Won...

... and your daughter's name is Chang Hyo-Won.

Remember?

You can remember that, right?

Like this.

You're supposed to eat it like this.

Good job.

Keep it up.

You can do it, right?

Okay.

Don't remember.

You don't have to remember. I think that's for the best.

I think you're better off forgetting Hyo-Won and my name.

I'll remember.

I'll remember everything instead.

Let's go in.

Come on, let's go.

I said, I'm buying!

I said, buy me something else!

This place is expensive. Really expensive!

Oh, close that mouth. I have plans of my own.

What? Plans?

Not money?

I have something better than money.

Credit cards?

Didn't your credit card get suspended?

You said so yourself.

Where should we sit?

Something expensive. I'd like the most expensive plate you have.

Huh?

You still need to make a selection.

The most expensive thing you have.

The most expensive.

What about wine? Here's our wine list.

The most expensive thing.

Yes, Sir.

Bong-Gi! Are you crazy? Let's get out of here.

Last time I checked, some of their wine costs more than $1,000.

Let's get out of here.

$1,000?

Sounds great! Today's my day. I guess I can try a few drinks.

What's wrong?

Sit down.

I'm leaving.

We've ordered.

Eat it yourself.

Sit down.

I can't stay here.

Why? Why not?

You came here to have dinner with me.

Sit down.

Sorry, I really can't stay.

Can't you see me?

How come you can see him, but can't see me?

Look at me, you peabrain!

Stop looking at the wrong places, and look at me, you blockhead!

Don't move!

Finish your food, and leave with me.

Oh, thanks.

Starting from today, I'm working at the Presidential Residence cafeteria.

Why not go to school, study until you find what you want to do?

But I found what I want to do.

I want to learn how to cook.

Cooking?

I want to bring people together and make them happy, like Chef Gang does.

Say hi. This is Miss Yeo Bong-Soon, our new member.

I'm Yeo Bong-Soon.

Nice to meet you.

Let me introduce myself.

I'm Guard Nam Bong-Gi, your new personal escort.
