[Episode 3]

What if Jung-ki stays at our place forever?

No way.

He won't leave since Ae-ja isn't opening the door for him!

I'm going to have to take care...

of your mother and your brother from now on.

Gosh...

I feel bad for my oldest son.

That evil witch.

What do I do about this?

Jung-ki, why aren't you getting more rest?

No, I should get going now.

You think Ae-ja will open the door for you?

I'm sure she will!

Why wouldn't she?

Anyway, next week is Father's memorial service.

What should we do?

Well...

Given the circumstances,

I don't think we can have a proper service.

Tell Mom we'll have a small service ourselves.

Ask her to return home.

No, no, no. That's not right.

Can you have her wear the checkered jacket?

No, no, no. That doesn't look right.

I think the pink dress might look better.

Grandma, when do I get to go back to Mom's place?

Why? You don't like it here?

I like it here.

Then do you want to live with me here?

No, I want to live with Mom.

But I'll give you delicious chocolate cake.

You know, Grandma said my teeth will get rotten...

if I eat too much chocolate cake.

Gosh, just a little bit is okay.

Your grandma doesn't know any better.

Oh, Grandmother!

Grandma said you're a princess.

Oh, my!

Your grandma said I was a princess?

Why?

She said some type of a princess...

A pretty princess?

No.

A fancy princess?

No.

Oh, I remember now!

A show-off princess.

Gosh...

When a lady puts on a makeup carefully,

you need to be very careful.

That's not when she wants to look beautiful,

or she wants to be loved by someone.

It's usually when she's burning with beauty...

right before she is about to explode.

Student in the back?

Your name?

Oh, my name is So Sung-geun. I e-mailed you last week.

Oh, you're the grad student?

Yes.

I'm sorry, but as I explained,

the class is full, and I can't accept more students.

Please leave.

Oh, okay...

Professor Ma!

Yes, So Sung-geun.

What else can I help you with?

Please let me take your class.

I heard I just need your permission to enroll in your class.

You said in your e-mail that you changed your master's degree twice already.

How long do you want to stay a student?

You should hurry and write your thesis and decide on your career.

I've never lived according to my own will.

I want to find out more about myself and what I really want to do.

I want to search for my own identity.

Well, that's something you need to figure out.

You need to go through the proper procedure to take my class.

See you.

Professor Ma.

I know what kind of student he is.

What? He said he wanted to search for his own identity?

It's a problem. A big problem.

Yes, Mother.

Are you done with your class?

I'm leaving now to drop off Mi-na.

What?

I was going to pick her up tomorrow...

Let's go!

Mother?

Gosh, she's driving me crazy.

Mommy.

Hi, Mi-na. You're here.

Hello, Mother.

I thought you'd be at school.

You're back so early.

Mother, our refrigerator isn't organized right now.

Why do you live like this?

It's only been a few days since the helper came by.

I was busy.

Why didn't you come for the interview?

Well...

What does it make me if you miss the interview like that?

It was actually my dad's birthday yesterday.

Birthday?

Wasn't it his 60th birthday this year?

Yes.

It was just a small gathering with Grandmother....

Your mother is such a unique lady, right?

How can she not invite her son-in-law to the 60th birthday?

Woo-jae is always busy.

And he doesn't have much interest in our family.

You!

Do you have to embarrass our family like that?

Huh?

What will others think about our family?

You should've coordinated things better.

How can you say Woo-jae has no interest in your family?

You made our family a family with no manners,

forgetting an in-law's 60th birthday.

That's not it...

What do you mean that's not it?

This is why how you're raised is so important.

This isn't something you learn in school.

Your parents should've taught you better.

I'm sorry, Mother.

Actually, your mother and father didn't seem like...

they had a good relationship to throw birthday parties.

But I guess she prepared his 60th birthday party.

Are they doing better lately?

Yes.

What are you doing over there?

Take everything out of the refrigerator.

What is this?

Open it.

What is this?

Mom made some porridge.

You can just leave it in there.

Throw it out.

Mother, my mom made this for me even though she was busy...

because my stomach wasn't feeling well.

I can't understand your mom.

Even though she's so busy,

how can she think of making such a big batch?

I can heat it up every time I eat it.

I hope you're not feeding my son this kind of old food.

He might get sick easily since he was never raised with this kind of food.

Throw it out.

Take everything out.

Hello.

Hi there.

Gosh...

Honey, I'm here.

What...? What is this?

I packed it for you. Take it and leave.

You're really telling me to move out? From my own house?

I thought we were done talking about that.

How many times do I have to tell you?

How is this your house?

This house is under my name, and I bought it with my own money.

Stop this nonsense and just leave.

But I'm the head of this house.

I'm the father of our daughters.

You never acted like a real head of the house.

Your real family was always your mother, your siblings,

their spouses and their children!

Do I have a choice?

I'm the oldest in my family.

You're the oldest daughter-in-law, but you won't live with my mother.

I can't become an undutiful son.

Oh, is that right?

You were an undutiful son?

You think I didn't live with your mom without a reason?

Gosh, what did I do so wrong?

I worked instead of you,

who never earned a dime for this family.

What did I do so wrong, huh?

She's the one who was critical of every single thing I did.

She's the one who ran to your brother's place...

after being upset all the time.

Is that all?

She always accused me of killing my own son.

You think I didn't say anything because I agreed with her?

She's just an old woman, don't take what she says to heart.

Just because she's an old woman?

Who would be sadder about losing her son than his own mother?

Do you think I can ever forget that day?

That day!

Stop it!

What's the point of talking about what's in the past?

Why can't I?

I can't even talk about it?

But your mother seems like she enjoys talking about it every time.

She mentioned it every time to hurt me even more!

Gosh.

Gosh, fine. Let's stop.

We're not a family anymore.

What's the point in talking about it now?

I even prepared your 60th birthday party.

No one can be critical of me.

So just leave now.

Okay.

Yeah, I know you tried hard.

But where can I really go?

This is my home.

I never asked you to praise me for what I did.

How many times do I need to tell you that this isn't your home?

Leave with your bag before I really get mad!

When is In-sung coming home?

She's the only one who can talk the truth without being scared of you.

What?

How dare you call In-sung! You've done nothing as her father.

She just returned home after living abroad for many years.

She went to work without having a single day of rest.

She's not like you, who's never had a job.

What did you say?

I never had a job?

Should I call you a poor poet then?

Don't drag our children into our problems.

Don't let our good children worry about us!

Fine.

I got it.

You also packed my books, right?

You want to take your books, too?

My books are more important to me than my clothes!

I'll leave after I pack my books.

Don't use your books as an excuse.

Pack and leave right away!

What's happening to me at this old age?

Mother...

I, the undutiful son,

the oldest son of the Ma family...I'm in tears.

So you missed me a lot?

Yes. I like you the most in the whole wide world.

I love you the most, too.

Mom, your stomach hurts again?

I'm okay.

I'll be better after eating your grandma's porridge.

But Grandmother threw everything out.

I'm all better.

Let's eat, Mi-na.

Grandma.

Yes, Mi-na.

Did you have dinner?

No, we're going to eat now.

Oh, Grandma...

What? She threw out the porridge?

Okay.

I'll bring some more tomorrow.

You should rub her tummy today.

Okay. Kiss, kiss. My darling.

Okay. Bye bye.

How dare she?!

Why would she throw out the porridge?

I was a bit busy and couldn't take care of Ji-sung lately.

I can't believe she did such a thing.

Gosh.

Goodness, there are so many delicious dishes.

What...?

What are you doing?

How dare you sit down?

We should eat!

Hey, Mister.

You and I are no longer family.

I don't care if you eat alone or what you eat,

so just get out!

I didn't get to eat anything all day.

I'm hungry!

Jeez.

Why are you telling me that?

I don't care.

I've prepared enough meals for you for the last thirty years.

What more do you want from me?

Did you forget that we're divorced?

Leave, leave!

I'm home.

It smells good in here.

In-sung, you're home.

Dad, you're back.

Of course I'm back. My daughter is back home.

Gosh, gosh. What are you doing?

What are you trying to pull? Go back right now!

Go back right now. Hurry! Leave!

In-sung, stop your mother.

She's not even feeding me dinner and torturing me.

Mom, what are you doing?

What do you mean? We stamped the divorced papers.

I let you stay because you wanted to pack your books.

Why are you saying otherwise?

She just came from work. Don't make her more tired.

Leave, leave.

Gosh, Mom!

Leave, Leave!

Mom! Mom.

Where can he go at this late hour?

You can think about the future later,

but we should eat first.

What?

Dad, sit down.

Okay, okay.

Today is the last day.

You won't be sitting at our table anymore!

Mom, where is Hee-sung?

She had to work in the ER so she couldn't come.

Let me call her.

I'll ask if she'll at least come home late at night.

Yes, Mom.

I'm not at the ER. I'm at the examination center.

Gosh, you're at the examination center again?

It's good since it's more comfortable than the ER,

but isn't it too obvious?

They should change their tactics.

Okay.

I'm going to go to the ER right afterwards, so don't wait up for me.

Gosh, okay.

Just play along with them.

Okay.

You can't expect much from a female doctor.

I'm sure she studied hard since her looks weren't good enough.

Jeez, I don't know.

They wanted to find a daughter-in-law who could take over the hospital.

What choice do I have?

Yes.

Gosh, I don't know. Of course it's a hassle.

Do I really need to do this?

Hey, I have to go. I'll call you later.

Are you Dr. Ma Hee-sung by any chance?

Yes.

Mr. Lee Do-hun?

This is unexpected.

You don't look like a doctor.

What?

I hated coming to hospitals since I was little.

But I want to stay for awhile this time.

You might need to stay for a long time depending on your examination results.

These days, there are many people with cancer regardless of their age.

Cancer?

I'll focus on cancer-related exams,

so that you can stay at the hospital for a long time.

Colon, stomach, pancreatic, lung, prostate, lung cancer...

Which exam would you like first?

What?

Why are you so surprised?

There are so many guys who go by to meet her at the examination center.

No way...

They might be real patients.

At first, I thought they were real patients...

for examinations who fell for Hee-sung.

But why would they send a cardio doctor to the examination center?

Gosh, she might not even know that some patients are there to meet her.

Jeez, you think she's like you?

Hee-sung is smart and quick with these things.

Mom, I don't think I'd know.

You don't need to know those things.

Whenever you want to get married, I'll find you the best husband.

That's how Ji-sung got married.

That's why Ji-sung has stomach problems now.

You should've set her up with someone she liked.

She can't be happy with just a good background in a man.

Gosh.

Do you think being in love can feed the family?

Did anyone force us to get married?

When we became poor,

there was no love left between us anymore.

How long are you going to sit there and eat?

Go back in if you're done eating.

Let me finish eating.

Gosh, Mom.

Dad, take your time.

Okay.

By the way, you must be tired from working as soon as you returned.

You might get sick from overworking.

Honey, prepare some healthy food for In-sung.

You should ask me to do things after you bring me a single dime!

Dad, take your time eating.

Okay.

I'm late. I should go wash up.

I'll wash up first.

Oh, the rice is burning.

Dad.

Yes?

You know I have one more semester left.

I poured out every penny to support your education.

You think I'd forget that?

You changed your major from electronic engineering to mechanical engineering.

You're not saying you want to change your major again, right?

Ah...of course not.

Dr. Ma Hee-sung. 32- years-old.

Graduated from Hankuk University with a business major.

Finished her MBA at Harvard with a full scholarship.

Joined Boston C&A which is a top-three global consulting group

with an entry rate of 100:1.

That person...is my sister-in-law.

She's your unmarried in-law?

Does Mom know that she's working at our company?

Do we need to tell her everything about our company?

Let's just stay quiet.

Our CEO thought that it was urgent...

to find an overall diagnosis of the company and to find a solution.

He wanted a brand new strategy rather than continuing with existing plans.

We already have an internal marketing team.

Is it necessary to bring in an outside consultant?

JW's growth rate is at zero this year.

Our subsidiary, JW Distribution and Sales, had a little bit of growth ,

but that doesn't do much overall good for the company.

We need to have an objective diagnosis...

and have an overall reevaluation of the company.

Next.

These are team members of the sales and marketing team...

selected from each department by Dr. Ma.

What does she know about our company to make such selections?

She's known for thoroughly analyzing companies before she begins her work.

We can't continue with our existing state of affairs without new ideas.

We ask that you actively participate with company policy.

It'd be easy for anyone to say that.

Consulting?

I'm sure she'll just talk about things that we all know about.

So Jung-geun from Sales?

I'll just trust and follow you, Director Jung.

Okay, okay.

Hey, Mr. So!

Yes?

You're been assigned to work at the head office.

Huh? How can they just assign me without my permission?

I know. I'm going crazy, too!

They're making a new Sales and Marketing Team.

Mr. So, you're lucky.

You get to work at the head office.

What do you mean, lucky?

Who's going to do sales for our branch?

I can't go.

All that incentive is mine. I can't go anywhere.

Also, I've been to the head office several times already.

I do my work the best here in the field!

Don't worry.

I'm sure they can't drag me if I don't agree.

That's the spirit!

How can our branch survive if they take away our #1 sales person?

I told him how we felt about it to the director.

Let's see what happens.

Actually, we shouldn't just sit back and wait.

Why don't you go and get a clear response from the director?

Right now?

You know the director will do anything you ask for.

Well, I guess you're right.

Then I'll go now and get a definite answer from him right now.

Okay!

Okay!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Let's go to Thailand!

Southeast Asia!

Sawadee Kap.

Go!

Pho.

Go!

Gosh, that car is blocking an empty spot.

Who parked like this?

What's this?

This is such a crappy car.

Who drives a car like this?

They should at least wash their car if it's this old.

Gosh...

It's so darn heavy.

Jeez!

What? What happened here?

Huh?

It works.

It's working. It's working.

Harder.

What's he doing to my car?

My dark horse.

My dark horse!

What are you doing? Did you do this?

No, I just touched it gently.

Touched it gently...?

Touched it gently?!

This crappy car is yours?

What? Crappy car?

Yes.

Did you tear down my car since it was so crappy?

Oh, gosh!

I didn't tear it down. I was trying to fix the bumper.

I saw it with my own eyes.

You kicked my bumper and banged on it with your fist.

That's not it. I banged on it gently since the bumper was falling off.

Okay, I'm sorry, and I did kick it a little bit.

I was trying to reattach it.

You tried to destroy my car on purpose since you knew it was my car, right?

No.

What do you mean, no?

I said, no!

I saw everything!

You did, but that's not what happened!

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

Surely, you're not thinking of just staying here...

I can't leave. No, I won't leave!

I'm Hong Ae-ja who sells out anything I bring.

I'm going home.

Who would buy such cheap curtains?

Ma'am, it's our policy to not stock any luxury products.

Our policy?

I want you to reconsider that ridiculous policy...

I told you Mom will hate this idea.

What do we do?

But why are they selling a bundle of 10?

This is on me, Hong Ae-ja!

Is this Home Shopping?

Do you know how much sales I make per month?
