[Episode 5]

Well, then...

I'll be going now.

Stop crying, already.

I'm trying, but I can't stop!

- You're home? - Yeah. What's with her?

Her ex is getting married, apparently.

Don't tell her! She's going to judge me!

Ugh, that's gross!

And how did you find out that he's getting married?

See? She's trying to check the facts now, like some weirdo!

You have to have the facts straight and get a grasp on the situation

before you act!

Wow, good for you!

Not everyone can be so black and white like you, you know!

How is she ever going to write drama scripts when she's like that?

She can't write melodramas, but she says she'll write an epic work, so...

Wow, you two are so in sync. Just go out with each other.

- No! - No!

Um, we're like brothers! Brothers!

I'd be your sister, not your brother!

What do you mean, sister?

Just watch, you'll be falling for each other before long.

Did you go somewhere?

I didn't know back then, either...

that it was love.

Why doesn't love announce itself

or tell you exactly when it will be visiting you?

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey, are you okay?

I feel like I'm going to die!

Stop it, already.

I hope you end up crying over a man

and get lost for three whole days!

Oh, come on, now. Be realistic.

There's no way Hyun Soo would do that.

To Hyun Soo, love is like a well-ironed dress shirt.

[Temperature of Love]

Excuse me!

You mean me?

Yes.

I was wondering if you'd come by to meet my son.

Um, who's your son, Ma'am?

Welcome!

I'd like to buy a cell phone.

Is there a specific model that you're looking for?

Aquarelle et Jeunes Filles.

Pardon?

Yes.

You know that?

What is your relationship with Jung Seon?

I know all of his friends.

I've only gotten to know him recently. I met him in a club, you see.

How old are you?

I'm 29.

If you're 29, then you're older than my son.

I feel so relieved all of the sudden.

It was nice to meet you.

Once I meet people, they usually remain in my life for a long time.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that will be the case this time around.

Geez.

Hello?

This is Park Jung Woo.

Who?

You don't remember me?

I'm Joon Ha's senior and I'm your senior as well, Ms. Lee.

Oh, yes. Hello.

How did you get my number, though?

I thought you were a smart person

but your questions are really low caliber.

I'm in a really bad mood today, okay?

I received a civil complaint about you, Ms. Lee Hyun Soo.

You mean from Senior Joon Ha?

- I heard you got fired. - Damn that guy!

Come to my office at 5 p.m. today.

I don't want to.

If you don't come, I'll forever remember you

as someone with a huge inferiority complex.

I don't care how you remember me.

Damn that Kim Joon Ha, why does he always do this to me?

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Hey, hey.

What are you doing? I told you to sous-vide potatoes when making puree.

When I was cutting the potatoes, I noticed that they had a lot of moisture

so I thought it'd be good to roast them in the oven and dry them out a little...

There you go again, not listening and doing as you please!

I did use the sous-vide method last time.

Oh, and is that why you're acting up now?

What I'm telling you is that I'm respecting what you're saying to me.

Last time, I used the sous-vide method since there was less moisture...

So what you're saying is

you have to prepare potatoes differently based on their moisture level

and you're saying that I'm not capable of that.

You're right.

"You're... you're right."

"You're right?" Why, you little...

What are you doing?

Hey.

Hey, where are you going in the middle of prep?

Take it easy, will you?

If I do, he'll turn out crooked.

What are you all doing? There's not time left until service!

Are you looking down on me?

Why are you changing the subject? How dare you talk back to me?

I apologize.

Are you going to keep acting this way?

I told you last time that good teamwork is a part of being skilled, too!

Does that mean I have to take whatever he throws at me, no matter what?

You may be very skilled, but you're still a newbie!

Do you think you'll really be able to establish yourself here without my help?

Come to work with the sous-chef, starting tomorrow.

You'll be his assistant from now on.

Jung Seon.

You know how much I treasure you.

I'm doing all of this for you!

Up until you told me to be his assistant, I thought that enduring his abuse

was the best way for me to repay you for all you've done for me.

And now?

I realized it when you said, "I'm doing all this for you."

But if there's one thing that I've learned in life

it's that, if someone forces you through hardships and insists that it's for you

then they're just ripping you off.

I'll think about

whether or not me staying here really is for my sake or not.

Because I know what's best for me.

- Oh my! - Oh!

Are you okay?

Um, yes.

I see. Goodbye, then.

Please come with me.

Mr. Ohn Jung Seon is here, correct?

Yes.

Please tell him that his mother is here.

What are you doing, Daughter?

I have a mom, too!

Did something happen?

No.

I just met my friend's mom, and it made me think a lot about you.

How about a hug? It's been a while.

Sure!

I'm good now.

- Do you feel better now? - Yeah.

I've recharged all my energy. I'm heading home now.

Hey!

You're really not going to tell me what's going on?

Mom.

Do I have any skills?

Of course you do.

You have it all. Everything.

Ah, a mother's love.

How comforting.

Work is one thing, but you have to make sure to marry the right person, too.

Your dad and I care only care about one thing, really.

How he grew up, his background.

We want a man for you who grew up in a happy family.

That's quite enough.

Oh, it's your dad.

My lunch today. What about you, Honey?

Does it make you that happy?

Of course it does.

Hyun Soo is here. I'll be eating soon, too.

Have you eaten lunch yet?

I love the fact that you two put each other first, before your kids.

All you two care about is yourselves.

We want to pressure you two a whole lot

so we're loving the heck out of each other!

Did you make this?

It's perfectly grilled.

Why do you think I came all the way here?

I thought you might hate me after what happened this morning.

I'm good at reflecting upon my actions and apologizing, after all.

Eat that, and leave.

Can't you sit with me until I'm done eating?

That'll be 60,000 won.

Forward my bill to my son.

I'm... afraid that I cannot do that.

All right, I understand. Did you enjoy your meal?

Yes.

Thank you.

[DF Ver] E05 Temperature of Love "I Bought a Cellphone" -= Ruo Xi =-

I know how to make merengue, too.

So you're just barging into the kitchen, huh?

I have a passport of sorts that lets me go wherever I want.

I feel like saying gross one-liners is your trademark.

It suits you.

Is that a compliment or an insult?

I take comments like that as compliments.

All right, I'll get straight to the point.

Have you thought about the offer I made to you before?

What offer?

I told you that I'd be an investor for your restaurant.

Oh, it didn't sound like you were being serious so I didn't take it seriously.

I heard that you didn't have a cell phone.

But you have one.

I just got it today.

[Advertisement]

Give it to me.

Save that number.

Am I set to number one on your speed dial?

No.

- I'm making you an official proposal. - I officially refuse.

How can you refuse when you haven't even thought about it?

I've thought long enough about it.

And that's why I'm giving you my answer so quickly.

Thank you, though, Sir!

I make offers for things I want until I get them.

And then I get them.

This is just the beginning.

Just a little bit of rice.

[Missed Call]

What is this?

Where have I seen this number before?

It's me, Ohn Jung Seon.

Oh, he called me!

Why did he call?

Oh no, I didn't pick it up!

8:43 a.m. That's...

when I was in front of his house.

Why did he call me?

Ugh!

And I can't call a public phone to reach him!

Wait, why can't I? I can.

Hello? This is Earth!

Oh my, what on earth... oh, geez.

Um, where are you, exactly?

I'm outside the park in Yeonnam-dong...

All right, thank you!

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

I bought a cell phone.

Oh, I see.

Are... you not feeling well? Your voice is...

No, I'm fine.

I'm just so happy since you called... um, wait, no.

I'm excited... no.

Never mind.

All I care about is that you're not sick.

I have to head back inside to prepare for dinner service.

I have to go too, since I have to meet someone.

[Add new contact]

[Name]

[Ohn Jung Seon]

[Save]

This is the first time I've ever felt like this.

Is it someone's birthday?

You packed all this for us to eat for lunch?

I wanted to share it with the nurses.

What's this?

Sweet fried eel.

Gangwon-do is known for its eel, after all.

It tastes good!

Does it?

Are you really that happy to see me eat it?

Seeing other people enjoying the food I made makes me very happy.

Even if it's not you.

You still haven't given up on your dream of being a chef?

It'd be such a shame to trade the title of Doctor for Chef.

Why?

Do you think that you'll be able to convince your family?

Only people like Jung Seon, whose families aren't rich

can choose to do whatever they want to do in life.

Why do you say that?

His dad is a doctor, and his grandpa is in the oil industry in Andong.

And I think he got his inheritance from his grandpa early.

Why does he always brush me off, then?

I thought he did that because he had no confidence.

Making assumptions is an illness, too.

Not all men like women like you.

Sweetie?

You're always starved for affection.

You must think that you're special to me because I was just a little nice to you.

Want to bet and see if Jung Seon likes me or not

and whether I can win him over or not?

I don't make bets on love.

Eat up.

How can you tell me to eat after you've pissed me off?

I'm never going to see you again, Sweetie.

Get your head on straight. I'm Ji Hong Ah.

[Park Soo Bin (17) Singing, Dancing]

Ms. Lee Hyun Soo is here, CEO Park.

You're punctual.

Most writers tend to run late.

I'm not a writer yet, and I like being punctual.

It's not like you need a license to become a writer.

Aren't you automatically a writer if writing is your profession?

In other countries, they call a person a writer if they publish just one book.

You need to have a free mind to become a writer.

I haven't been able to overcome the social standards I was brought up with.

I have strong opinions and I told myself I'd have no regrets.

And yet, I'm only withering away as I get older.

You sure are feisty for someone who got fired.

I'm quite a flexible person, you see.

I can go in any direction I'm flung in.

I need a planning writer.

I've bought domain names and a license to release an app.

I'd like you to take care of them for me.

I'll pay you 3 million won per month, and give you weekends off.

Tell me if there's anything else you want from me.

I refuse.

Why are you rejecting such a good offer?

Because it's too good of an offer.

I feel like you're only offering me this job because I'm your junior from school.

That is entirely true.

And you were the one who just said that

you weren't able to overcome the social standards you were brought up with.

So it's only rational for you to accept this offer.

It's true that I haven't overcome the social standards I was brought up with.

But I was trying to tell you that I'm trying to break free right now.

But you interrupted me.

Let's do things your way.

Since I'm your senior at our alma mater

I'm going to speak informally to you now, okay?

Is that a problem?

No.

I'll be going then, Senior.

Get going, then.

And come by anytime.

I'm even more amused after you rejected my offer.

It makes it seem like there's something about you, or something.

I'm kind of just like that.

I have nothing, but I make it seem like there's something mysterious.

Don't fall for it, Senior!

I'll choose whether or not I'll fall for it.

But...

you won't want to deceive me.

Do your best.

Isn't the sky so pretty?

How could the sky in Seoul look this pretty, I wonder?

And the plants you're raising are so pretty, too.

And you're prettiest when you're sitting still, Mom.

Are you telling me to die?

If you tell me to die, then I'll die.

I promised to obey you, after all.

If you're planning to torment me by saying things you don't mean

then stop it.

I won't fall for it anymore.

I don't want to stay at this house, either.

It's so suffocating.

What would I even do here all day?

Use this to pay the person who was looking for me.

I'll get you your own place.

I can't live with you.

Don't be like that.

Let's just go to Paris.

You can finish up your studies. It'll be great.

If you graduate from Le Cordon Bleu, you'll be able to get a great job.

You're young right now.

You have to live in the present for the sake of your dream, and the future.

It's funny, hearing you say things like that.

Do you know what your father regrets the most?

Getting married before he turned 30.

I'm just scared that you'll put your hand on a woman, like your dad, and...

Mom!

All sons eventually take after their fathers.

Don't try to involve me in Dad's life.

Just listen to me. Despite everything, I am your mom.

I want to do something for you so that you can have a good future.

I really won't pull any tricks this time.

People don't change.

I saw that girl.

She came looking for you here.

Don't go anywhere near her.

- Dreams... - Come true!

- Clink! - Clink!

Aren't you a bit too cheery? I thought you'd be totally depressed.

For some reason, I'm filled with willpower.

I feel like I've been a bit strange recently.

Writer Park is the weird one.

It's my fault for asking for a day off when we were so busy.

But, what made you take the day off?

I was just so frustrated.

Geez.

Is that the title of the show?

No.

The title is "Steak."

It's about a man who eats his steaks rare.

Do people who eat rare streaks have a unique personality or something?

No, apparently it's just a matter of preference.

I asked Mr. Jung Seon about it.

- Mr. Jung Seon? - Yeah.

How did you get in touch with him?

Did you send him a message?

No.

He has a phone now.

Are you two dating?

No!

Oh, come on. He's so much younger than me.

As to be expected of you.

I just love how tethered to reality you are.

Even if he were to say he likes you, you can't accept his feelings.

Why not?

Well, you know. He's a total playboy.

He's been studying abroad since he was young, after all.

Oh, but isn't that just a stereotype? Every person is unique.

No, no. You can't fool your upbringing.

He flirted with me a lot at first, too!

Really?

Oh, I see.

Tell me Jung Seon's phone number.

Okay, sure.

"A Man Who Eats Rare Steak" is better than "Steak" as a title.

I sent it.

Are you heading to work already?

No, I got fired.

Don't make that kind of face.

I got fired because I deserved to be

and thanks to that, I'm in crisis intervention mode

so I'm heading to the library.

I'm working on my script for the open call.

- Which library? - The one at my alma mater.

I'm going to study hard with the youngsters.

Get on.

I don't want to.

I love this!

You said before that you didn't want to, though!

I'm just kind of like that. I'm always changing my mind.

Ow!

Thank you.

What about breakfast?

I'll take care of it somehow.

As long as there's a lot of food, I'll eat at the university.

I want to see what a university cafeteria looks like.

Come by, then! It'll be on me.

But, can you do that?

I'll have time during my break.

[Jung Seon]

Hello?

- It's me, Hong Ah. - Um, hey.

You should've told me right away if you got a phone!

Why did you make me go through Hyun Soo to get your number?

Why should I have to tell you immediately?

Don't you have any basic human decency?

I didn't know something like this was a part of that.

If you didn't, then now you do.

- Why are you getting mad? - Because I am!

I don't understand why you're mad.

I don't get it either, but I'm getting mad.

What do you want, anyway?

Do I need to have a reason to meet up with you?

If you keep acting this way, I'll be the one getting mad!

I'm going to your restaurant on Friday night

so make me a reservation.

Don't tell me things like that. Call the restaurant directly.

How come you never do as I ask?

Because it's easier this way. We're just friends, after all.

Ugh.

[Library]

"Why?"

[How To Become A TV Writer]

Yoon Ha flinches.

- Why are you so surprised? - "Why are you so surprised?"

- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.

It annoys me even more to hear a formal apology from you.

So, let me hear what you're so so sorry about.

Formally.

It annoys me even more...

[This is a library. Be quiet!]

Sorry.
