[Episode 33]

What is that?

Isn't that the TV show host, Hong Ae-ja?

Does she live in my neighborhood, too?

She's doing her groceries here.

Oh, no. I'm running out of all the food.

Mr. Ma.

Mr. So!

Are you having dinner?

What are you eating it with?

My goodness, you're all out of side dishes.

This isn't much, but try some of this.

Oh, no. You shouldn't have...

I told you I can cook for myself.

This is soybean stew!

This is my absolute favorite menu!

You know what happened today?

I was going to make some chicken soup,

and there was a sale going on that sold four chickens for $20.

And only one was left, but some woman took it before I could.

Who was that woman?

Just some mean woman...

I should've bought those chickens.

If it's four for $20, it sure was a big sale.

Of course.

Usually, it's $10 for one chicken.

I just can't buy chickens paying that much money.

I'll go to the market again tomorrow

...and if there's that sale going on again, I'll buy some.

But I had a question...

If you're not getting paid by the publisher...

What are you going to do in the future?

Oh...right...

I'm free-loading here without paying rent...

I feel very ashamed to be living this way.

I just feel really bad about your situation, that's all.

You were kicked out of your home,

and going through so much hardship...

I guess, there's no chance of you getting back together?

You did so much to help us...

But I guess it is what it is.

I'll try to get the rent money as soon as I can.

Please be a little more patient.

I'll go in front of your house.

I have something to say.

Oh, this is so yummy.

The meat is so chewy, too.

Mom got the cage free Korean chickens.

Isn't it delicious, Ji-sung?

Yeah.

I won't feel so hot after eating this bowl.

Yeah, right?

You should eat the soup, too.

I will.

Let's have some beer, too.

I haven't had it for a while with you girls.

Good! I like that!

I also got some fresh doughnuts that you like, Ji-sung.

You only care about what she wants.

Hee-sung, you like doughnuts, too.

Eat a lot.

All right.

Mom, I can eat them too, right?

Of course.

I got them for everyone.

Oh, Mom.

Director Ahn Jin-bong finally got discharged.

He was trying so hard to talk to me.

What? Who?

The director of Mom's previous home shopping?

Hee-sung wanted to seek revenge, so she injected the shot painfully,

and pinched his legs saying she's testing his pain level.

Oh my goodness!

Why don't we say cheers before we drink?

Here. Here.

Cheers!

Ms. Ma, I'm sorry about earlier.

I don't know how I became this way, but...

It's been awhile since we've noticed each other...

My gosh, why does she have to be so insensitive?

Do I have to spell it out for her?

Gosh, it's raining.

Mi-na...

Oh, my sweetie pie!

Grandpa!

When did you get here?

A long, long time ago.

She was barely falling asleep.

Why did you wake her up by calling her loudly?

I don't think she's sleepy at all.

Ma'am, take her to her room and get her to sleep.

Go in.

Oh, my cute darling.

Having Mi-na in the house brightens up the place.

I agree.

I'm so happy to have Mi-na in the house.

Honey, should we have Mi-na move here?

I'd love that.

But she's so young, she should be with her mom and dad.

We can have Woo-jae and Ji-sung move in together in here.

There shouldn't be any problem with that.

You mean...have them move in here?

Yes.

I think that's just a great idea.

I get to see Mi-na everyday,

and Woo-jae and Ji-sung can stop arguing about who does more house chores.

The house chores will be taken care of.

Wouldn't everybody be happy?

Everybody happy?

That's what we think.

We'll have to hear what Ji-sung and Woo-jae think.

Hang on.

I should first ask what Woo-jae thinks.

Hello, Mom?

Dinner?

I'm making some instant noodles.

What?

You're making instant noodles?

Where's your wife?

She went to her mom's house for some chicken soup.

What?

While she's out to her mom's house eating chicken soup

you're home making instant noodles for yourself?

Maybe I should've gone with her to her mom's place.

Quiet.

Come to my house right this instant.

Right now?

Give that to me.

Did you get scolded by your mother-in-law because I picked up Mi-na?

No.

I wanted to babysit Mi-na when she was younger.

But you know how busy I was with work.

And I always felt guilty about that.

And since I'm not working,

I thought it'd be a good idea to babysit her.

I know.

I know you did it for me.

If you're upset about that...

Mom, I'm not upset at all.

I'm sure I made you upset, Mom.

Ji-sung, why don't you sleep over today?

It's so late.

Mom, hang on.

Hello, Mother?

I even babysit your daughter,

but you're making Woo-jae eat instant noodles all alone?

Is he home already?

If you don't know that, who would?

Oh my goodness...

Although he's married,

his wife isn't feeding him or showing him any respect.

Oh...

I'll go home right now.

I'll go and take care of him.

I have a great idea.

I want you to move into my house.

Huh?

What do you mean?

With all your brains, you can't even understand that simple sentence?

I want you to move in with us.

Let's decide on the date soon.

Ji-sung, who was that?

Was it your mother-in-law again?

Yes.

What's the matter?

Did she say something again?

She took Mi-na from me.

Is she upset about you coming here?

No.

Mom, I have to go now.

You want to leave at this hour? It's raining.

That's all right.

Mom, thanks for the chicken soup.

You're going home?

You should just sleep over.

Stay a bit longer.

No.

Good night, Mom.

Good night, girls.

All right, then...

Mom, don't come out.

Have a safe trip back.

Don't come out.

Mom, is something wrong with Ji-sung?

Well, she rushed out as soon as she received a call from her mother-in-law.

Maybe it's because Woo-jae is home alone.

I'm tired.

I have to wake up early tomorrow. I'm going to bed.

All right.

Go in and sleep.

I can't eat anymore, either.

You should go and sleep, too.

I'll clean this up.

Mom, tomorrow is Saturday, I'll clean it with you tomorrow.

Don't worry and just go to sleep.

Okay.

Were you sleeping?

I'm leaving now. Please wait.

Did Mother mention anything to you?

[Crazy Boss]

The person is not available...

I'll wait until you come out.

I'll leave after saying what I came to say.

Gosh...

It's such a mess...

What am I supposed to do?

Oh, right!

[Mr. So Jung-geun]

I'll go to your house by 10 o'clock.

I'm in front of your house right now.

I'll wait for you.

I'll wait until you come out.

I'll leave after saying what I came to say.

Surely, he would've left by now.

It's so late.

It's raining so much.

He would've left by now.

Huh? He's still there!

He should've gone home when it started to rain!

What's this sound?

Oh, no! The windows are open!

The rain is going to come in.

Who is that man?

He's drenched in rain.

Is he waiting for somebody?

You're finally here...

What's the matter with you?

Take this umbrella.

I was waiting for you in this rain for hours.

And that's all you can say to me?

Well...

Hurry up and go. Don't get wet anymore.

You want me to hurry up and go?

Aren't you even curious?

Why I'm here and what I came here to say?

Or in the very least, what drove me mad enough to be doing this?

I'm not going to ask you.

I'm not curious.

Why not?

Didn't I tell you the reason before?

I came this far because my eyes were only on the prize.

I'm scared that I'd lose my direction because of you.

I don't want my goal to change.

So, what exactly is that direction?

And what is your goal?

To be successful in what I do.

You think I had time to do other things when I came this far in life?

As you said, I'm a girl.

So I had to put on makeup and try to look decent, too.

So if I had to fall in love on top of everything,

you think I could've made it this far?

Well, aren't you successful already?

What more do you want that you have to repress yourself so much?

There's no such thing as successful enough for me.

I have a long way to go.

And I have to be successful with this project

...to move on to the company I want to go.

Please stop doing this to me and go back to your old self.

You should go now.

Now, I feel like everything is clear in my head.

Why I came all the way here,

and what I came here to say...

I think I finally know now.

Well, now that I'm here anyway,

I should say what I came to say.

The reason I'm here right now is because...

I couldn't stop thinking about you.

Meaning, I missed you.

I like you.

That's what I wanted to tell you.

Mr. So.

Wait.

Don't call me Mr. So.

I'm not here as your subordinate.

I'm here as a man who likes you as a woman, not as a boss.

I'm glad I came today.

From this moment on, I'm going to stop falling for you any further.

By falling in love with someone who couldn't care less about others...

I'll only get hurt.

So, from tomorrow on...

You're my boss and I'm your subordinate.

Ms. Ma, good night then.

He should've taken the umbrella.

Isn't there any way that both Mr. Ma and I can survive this?

At this rate, we'll both go broke.

Why are you home so late?

Why are you drenched in rain?

J...Jung...

What's the matter?

Nothing's wrong, Dad.

What's wrong? Tell me...

You'll catch a cold.

Wipe yourself dry before sleeping.

I will.

Just what did I expect from her?

I shouldn't have fallen for her.

Mr. Ma.

Oh, Mr. So.

What brings you here so early in the morning?

I have a great idea for you.

Great idea?

You're sure that you were forced to get divorced

although you did nothing wrong to your wife, right?

Yes, you could say that.

I really didn't do anything that wrong to deserve to be divorced.

It was a divorce by consent,

but you never consented to any conditions, right?

Conditions?

No, nothing at all.

So, you never discussed how to divide your assets or child support, right?

No, not at all.

Then, you can claim for division of property to your wife.

Claim for division of property?

If you're going to get divorced, you should at least get half of the assets.

I'll help you.

Gosh, there's no way I can do that.

No way.

Don't say that.

You can't just walk away empty-handed.

You did contribute in your family making money, right?

Well, I guess so.

When you first got married, who paid for your first house together?

Oh, that house was about $10,000.

We used the money I saved up from salary as a teacher.

And we had to get a bank loan.

Even the house was tiny, but we were so romantic.

Then, the starting money all came from your pocket?

I guess you could say that.

My wife was working, but she had to quit after getting married.

She was such a knock-out back then.

So, your wife didn't make any money at the beginning of the marriage.

Good. You'll win this case 100%.

Well, it's all in the past.

What are you talking about?

The claim can get easier depending on

who contributed more money in the beginning.

Whose name is your current house under?

Well, of course, it's under her name.

You should've made it a joint house!

But don't worry.

Since you're not fully divorced yet,

you can call her and tell her to change it.

Call who?

Who do you think?

Your wife, of course.

Oh, no. I can't do that.

Joint owner of the house?

You think my wife would so much as listen to that?

Okay.

Any hidden money or real estate somewhere?

I have no idea.

But why are you asking me all these questions?

All you have to do is stay quiet about this.

I'm doing this because I feel so bad for you.

Don't be too thankful to me later.

What are you trying to do?

Mr. So!

Mr. So!

Are you up already?

It's Saturday, you should've slept more.

Hang on.

Whose number was this?

Maybe Producer Park from All Good Home Shopping?

Hello?

Is this Mr. Ma Jung-gi's wife?

This is Mr. Ma's friend from the Marines.

This guy is calling me again?

The Marine days were ages ago.

He left the Marines over 30 years ago.

So, why do you keep on calling me?

What do you want from me?

What I want to say is that the man of the house

must stand tall for his family to stand tall.

And your divorce to Mr. Ma is invalid.

Wh...what?

My divorce is invalid?

I'm completely divorced from him.

Who are you to say that it's invalid?

Well, you didn't consent to the divorce.

What do you mean, I didn't?

The minute we applied our seals to it, we consented.

Oh, no. You're mistaken.

It seems like you forced Mr. Ma to seal the divorce papers.

Is that what he said?

That he got divorced by force?

Anyways, if you have hidden real estate or bank accounts,

please tell me honestly.

Mr. Ma will only consent to the divorce if you give him 50% of your assets.

Wh...what did you say?

50% of my assets?

Mom, who is that?

Fine.

Let's say that's what Mr. Ma wants.

But who are you to meddle in our business and tell me what to do?

I'm his subordinate from the Marines,

...as well as his spokesperson.

What? His spokesperson?

What gave you the right as his spokesperson?

Who gave you the right?

Where are you right now?

I'll be there, so you just stay put!

Where are you?

Fine. Suit yourself.

I wanted to meet you in person and discuss this matter with you anyway.

You know my real estate office,

'Victory Real Estate' right?

Come over here.

I'll be waiting for you.

Don't forget, it's Victory Real Estate.

Victory Real Estate across the road?

My eldest son goes to JW, too.

Big deal!

Responsible for exaggerated advertising. Get rid of that vixen host Hong!

Mr. So, or whatever his name is, from Victory Real Estate...?

[Subtitles Provided by MBC]

Ji-sung, you should get it together.

I'm sorry for not acting like your big sister.

We can tell her we won't move in.

You will?

Woo-jae, what's wrong with you these days?

Okay. Let's forget about her.

Do you want to have dinner together?

Do you know who my mom is?

I'm sure you approached him with a reason.

I know you're asking him for money, too.

What are you talking about?

I didn't say anything but that's not because I thought you were right.

What was that?
