Original subtitles

I meant to finish early, but it took a while.

It's fine. We'll be right on time.

Good.

Dr. Yoon. Didn't you leave yet?

Let's talk.

Right now?

If it's not urgent, let's talk tomorrow.

No, right now.

It has to be now.

Can't it wait until tomorrow?

We have a dinner reservation.

Talk to her tomorrow, Dr. Yoon.

Let's go, Na-hee.

Hear me out first,

Na-hee.

Gyu-jin.

Hold on, Jeong-rok.

It'll be brief, right?

Wait for me in the parking lot.

I'll be right there.

Sure thing.

I'll be waiting.

What is it? Go ahead.

What did you mean by this?

DON'T GET SICK NA-HEE

What do you mean?

Was this a friendly gesture as a colleague or…

A colleague, of course.

What else could it be?

Are you sure?

You're being awfully weird.

You didn't even mention receiving the porridge.

Why are you asking now?

What…

What game are you playing?

Na-hee, I--

Guys, I see you're still here.

Aren't you heading home?

I should. I was just about to leave.

We're leaving too. Shall we head out together?

-What about you, Dr. Yoon? -In a minute.

We should get going before we hit a lot of traffic.

-Let's go. -Sure.

I'm on my way. I took a cab to rush over.

Right now?

I need another ten minutes.

Anyway, how was your class, Da-sik?

Yes, the class ended, but we're gathering to elect the class representative.

I'll call you when it's over. Bye.

Let's see…

Da-hee, you clumsy thing.

Oh no.

Thanks.

HOW CAN THIS PROBLEM BE SOLVED?

It's very colorful.

I see you put in a lot of hard work.

Just in case.

I need to make up for my lack of intellect.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Well, let's start with some nominations.

We'll also accept volunteers.

Who here wants to represent the class?

No one?

Can anyone come forward and take one for the team?

It's more fun than you realize.

-Tae-jin. -What?

I'm too busy with my other major.

Ha-yun?

I can't either. I'm busy with my tutoring gig.

Then what do we do? I can't do this forever.

Me!

I'll give it a shot.

Well,

is it not ideal because I'm a transfer student?

There's something romantic about a university campus.

Even a walk here lifts my mood.

I should ask her to take a walk with me after dinner like a campus couple.

Jae-seok!

Gosh, don't run.

There's no need. I'm coming to you.

I couldn't wait to tell you.

I became

the class representative.

The class representative?

Yes, everyone seemed hesitant, so I volunteered.

It's always been my dream.

I wasn't confident enough to volunteer back then,

but I took the leap this time.

Good job.

Now that you're back, you should do everything that you wanted to do.

Ji-won is the vice representative. She's also really friendly.

Yeong-a and Yeong-rye agreed to help.

My gosh.

You're like a different person now.

But a class representative? This is unexpected.

I'm sorry about this,

but the kids are waiting for me so we can celebrate.

Do you want to come with us? Would it be too uncomfortable?

Don't worry about me and get going, Ms. Representative.

I'm not a petty and narrow-minded boyfriend.

Still, you came here to have dinner with me.

I said it's fine.

I couldn't be more thrilled

to send my girlfriend off to her own party.

I should meet with a friend too. Go ahead.

Actually, I'll go first to lessen your burden.

I'm off, then.

-Call me when it's over. -Sure.

Congratulations on your win. I'm proud of you, Da-hee!

Good luck.

Thanks. I'll call you later.

Enjoy your dinner.

Thanks again.

Cho-yeon, are you sure you don't need anything?

We'll buy what we want if you don't tell us.

It's fine, girls.

You barely make enough to cover your bills.

Way to knock me down.

Then let's close early tomorrow and grab dinner.

-It'll be on us. -Yes.

Sounds good. What are we having?

Can we have beef?

Imagine a glass of soju with some beef tartare.

Yeon-hong, excuse me,

but Cho-yeon doesn't like raw food.

It's her birthday, not yours.

It's fine.

I'm just thinking about

inviting the ladies at the market over for dinner.

We've caused some trouble here and there,

and we never treated them to anything

apart from handing out rice cakes.

Sounds nice to me.

It might be a good chance to get closer with them.

We used to be scared of them, remember?

Yes, let's just have it here.

We'll buy groceries and cook here.

I'll head to the dance class and try inviting them.

Hello, everyone. I see you're all here early.

-Hi. -Good to see you.

It didn't cost much, so I bought a box on the way.

Let's take some vitamins before shaking away.

Thank you.

Please pass this around.

We were actually craving something sweet.

Thank you.

Actually, consider that as the appetizer.

It's my birthday tomorrow,

and I'd like to invite you all to dinner.

Will we be enjoying a feast tomorrow, then?

No, I'm sorry. I'm only going to invite the ladies.

The women should take a day to unwind, right?

I'll prepare a full-course meal,

so head over to my shop once you close up tomorrow.

I'll see how things go tomorrow.

I'll try and make it.

Sure.

Ok-bun, let's go.

Sure thing.

-Ok-bun! -Yes?

Should we attend the gimbap lady's birthday party tomorrow

or not?

I'm torn.

She'll be ordering food and setting up a feast for us.

Still, considering all that's happened, I'm not sure if we should go.

How can we not go when we were invited?

Really?

Are you really going to go?

We're fine with it, but we thought you'd be uncomfortable.

What's there to be uncomfortable about? We buried the hatchet.

If you think about it,

we were a bit territorial

and spread groundless rumors.

She's right. We should go.

It's bad manners to turn down an invitation.

Sure, let's go.

We'll enjoy the food and unwind!

Sure, let's do this.

-Sounds fun. -It sure does.

-Let's go. -Come on.

She rejected my proposal,

but she made me sort out the storage again.

Everywhere you go, there's that one person who gets on your nerves.

It's the people you work with, not the actual job that stresses you out.

What?

Gosh, Hye-yeong. What a surprise.

What's been going on?

You never answered our calls or came out to meet us.

I thought you moved abroad.

Sorry about that.

I had a hard time keeping it together after my husband's business went bankrupt.

You brat.

Friends aren't just for the good times. I'm upset you never called.

I was too ashamed to call you.

I finally get to pay you back the money you lent me two years ago.

I wanted to give it to you in person, and I put in double the interest.

Are you sure I can take this?

-Are things better now? -Yes.

Actually, I started a business last year. It's an online shopping mall.

It was the last resort to repay my husband's debt.

But now it's going pretty well. And I'm having fun.

Really?

I'm so happy for you. Congratulations.

You never know what will happen in life.

I can't believe I run an online shopping mall.

I personally think you'd do much better. You're competent too.

Not really.

I just like clothes.

It's not only that. You have a good sense of fashion.

Do you not remember the high school days?

When you wore a pleated skirt, the others followed suit.

When you bought a hair tie, everyone bought one too.

Did they do that?

You're reminding me of the good old days.

Excuse me. It's my client.

Hello, Mr. Shin.

Are we short on stock?

Can you please wait?

-You lost. -There you go.

Drink it up

-It's going down -It's going down

It's me again?

It's been me the whole time. Can you let it slide just this once?

Do you want the Dark Knight?

If he says no, you should drink twice as much.

-Look at her. -My gosh.

Okay. Let's continue without a break.

Ji-won, come on.

Da-hee lost the game again.

-Fool's game, fool's game -Fool's game, fool's game

Where are you? Are you still having fun?

Did she not check my message yet?

Should I call her?

Hello? Da-hee, is it over? Where are you?

I'm at a bar near the school.

We came here for another round.

-Another round? -Yes.

I was going to go home after dinner, but they asked me to stay.

This is a good chance to get close with them,

so I didn't want to miss it.

-Isn't that great? -Yes, it is.

Right. It's important to be good friends with them.

You're the class representative now.

It'd be dangerous to stay too late though.

-Do you want me to pick you up? -No.

Ji-won lives in my neighborhood, so we can go home together.

All right, then. Make sure to call me when you get home.

Bye.

It sounds like she's having a lot of fun.

Her tone of voice is quite high.

Is she drunk?

-You're home. -Yes.

What's wrong with him this time?

My brother is no fun at all these days.

He's too weird.

This dish tastes different every time I come here.

Do they have a new chef?

What do you think? Do you like your food?

Do you want to order something else?

No, it's fine.

I like it.

Earlier today,

I got a call from the professor I worked with in New York.

He's opening a children's medical center in New York,

and he wants me there.

Oh, really?

He's also looking for a Korean doctor to work as a medical researcher.

So I'd like to recommend you.

You can write papers there

and work on your doctorate at a graduate school.

If you want, you can pass the USMLE there

and work as a doctor in the States.

I don't know.

This is just too sudden.

It's been your dream since you were in college.

I still remember

what you said during the school trip.

I'll help you achieve your dream.

Come with me, Na-hee.

Think about it.

We have plenty of time.

You should give me 10,000 won each.

I'll tell you if we need more.

Guys!

Hey, what are you guys doing?

I said this is on me.

But the bill is quite high.

Right, Da-hee. We can split the bill.

No, it's okay!

Today, I'm paying.

Please let me pay today.

I have money.

I got my paycheck.

-How much is it? -It's 98,000 won.

Did you say 9? It's 98,000 won?

This is strange. Where's my money?

Oh, right.

I put it in my savings account.

What was I thinking?

Hey, guys.

Can any of you lend me 64,000 won?

It's okay.

We're going to split the bill.

I promise I'll pay you back.

It's really okay.

Take this.

I'll help you achieve your dream.

Come with me, Na-hee.

Hear me out first,

Na-hee.

Na-hee!

I became the class representative.

Hey, what's wrong with you?

Congratulations to me!

I'm sorry.

I got drunk playing drinking games yesterday.

Oh no. Who is this speaking?

It's my class representative girlfriend who's gotten busy after transferring.

Please forgive me.

You called me last night.

I know.

I was terrified when Na-hee answered it.

I'm so sorry.

I was just fine, but I blacked out all of a sudden.

I can imagine.

You don't hold your liquor very well.

How did you get home?

Ji-won took me home.

Ji-won took care of me the whole time.

I owe it to Ji-won that I'm still alive.

I'm very thankful.

I should buy Ji-won dinner next time.

Hang on. Gyu-jin, wait for me.

So what time do you get off school today?

Hello.

-Hi. -Hello, Dr. Song.

PEDIATRICIAN YOON GYU-JIN

Did he come to work?

Are you looking for Dr. Yoon?

Yes. I need to ask him something about my paper.

He's making rounds now.

There's a patient he needs to check on.

Should I tell him you stopped by?

No.

You don't have to. It's nothing urgent.

-Are you on your rounds? -Yes.

What did you talk about with Na-hee last night?

Do I have to report it to you?

No, that's not what I meant.

I'm just curious.

You know what?

I still have feelings for Na-hee.

I was going to tell her that.

I'm busy. I should get going.

You were going to?

That means,

you didn't get to tell her.

I got an offer from New York.

I asked Na-hee to come with me.

It's a research position.

She can write papers

and pursue a doctorate there. And if she wants,

she can pass the USMLE and work as a doctor.

It's a good opportunity for her.

So what?

Why are you

telling me this?

You know the reason.

I know I'm not playing fair.

But I can barely handle myself.

Take care.

Ta-da.

What are you reading?

An SCI paper.

US papers have various topics with larger cases.

-They're fun. -They are.

Did I tell you?

One day, I want to get a doctorate in New York,

pass the USMLE, and treat patients there.

They offer more financial support and have more cases.

I'm excited just thinking about it.

Starting today, we'll join an English study group.

-Me too? -Of course.

If I join, you join too.

Or I'll kill you.

-Will I die if I don't join? -Do you expect to live, then?

You have to come with me.

It's a research position.

She can write papers

and pursue a doctorate there. And if she wants,

she can pass the USMLE and work as a doctor.

It's a good opportunity for her.

Cho-yeon, what's the new menu? What kind of gimbap?

I'll stew some burdock and cook thick slices of egg

to make some burdock and egg gimbap.

That sounds nice, as long as you season it well.

I should buy some rice cakes.

Bye.

Hey, Ms. Kang.

-How are you? -I'm fine.

-Are you out buying groceries? -Yes.

It's your birthday today. Happy birthday.

My birthday doesn't mean much to me, but thank you anyway.

Good luck with the party later.

Have fun with the ladies.

-I will. -See you.

Is he the merchants' association president?

Yes.

He doesn't look much like a president. More like a guy next door.

Come on. He has a lot of influence in the market.

Really?

-Oh, hello. I'm glad we met. -Hi.

-I need you to sign this. -Okay.

He must be quite rich.

Thank you.

-I'll take this. -Bye.

-See you next time. -Okay.

Oh dear.

-I'm sorry. -I'm sorry, sir. Are you okay?

-Yes, I'm fine. -I'm so sorry.

Who's that?

I haven't seen him around here.

So that's done.

Let's see. The free tables are…

Hey, it's Dr. Song.

Dr. Song.

Can I sit?

Of course. You're already seated.

Why are you eating on your own?

Where's your new best friend?

He's at Sejin Hospital for a patient transfer.

Then you should've called me.

You've been too distant because you found a new friend.

At one time, we were soulmates of some sort.

I still think we are.

Hey. I'm touched.

This is tasty.

I owe you.

You bought me one last time.

What do you want?

About yesterday. That note.

What about it?

You asked if I left it as a colleague.

What did you mean?

I just

started to wonder…

why you were concerned for me.

I heard Jeong-rok asked you to go to New York with him.

How do you know?

He told me.

So?

Will you go?

I'm thinking about it.

What do you think?

What do you think I should do?

You should go.

It's a good opportunity.

It's what you wanted.

That is…

what I should say.

For your sake.

Lunchtime is over. Let's go.

Is the shoot just a month away?

I've never worked on something that big. I'm nervous.

There's still time. Let's prepare slowly. It's not any different.

Dad!

Are you back from training?

Hey, guys. Hi, it's been a while, Hyo-sin.

Hi.

Why are you here at this hour?

Shouldn't you be in class?

What?

Well, yes. But, Dad, I think summer's getting to me.

I feel so heavy and weak. I keep wanting to go somewhere.

But rather than going far away and making my parents worry,

I decided to come and see…

The truth is, I have a quiz today,

and I'm not prepared.

It's better to skip it than moan over a low score.

Wow, you are so decisive.

You're very bold and admirable.

I take after my dad.

Song Seo-yeong. Go back to class.

You can't avoid things you fear.

And didn't your mom tell you?

-You can't-- -I heard.

She said I can't go to Grandpa's.

And I can only see you every other week.

Mom always does as she pleases.

Why should we always do as she says?

It's not like that. I agreed to the arrangement.

What?

So,

you can't skip class and come here now.

I can't welcome you.

You mean,

I should just leave?

Yes. Go back to class.

Do you mean that? Do you really want me to go?

Yes. Go.

Okay.

I'll go, then.

How refreshing.

Aren't you happy that I finished work early?

Song Seo-yeong, where were you? Your teacher called me.

Seo-yeong, answer me.

Where were you?

I went to see Dad. Why?

He told me to leave though.

He never once said that to me before,

but he told me not to come by anymore.

He held a cold gaze and didn't even smile once.

Seo-yeong.

You two only care about yourselves.

You never ask for my opinion.

I hate you both!

Let's see. Da-sik's class must've ended by now.

-Jae-seok. -Yes, hello.

I'm Yoon Jae-seok, Song Da-sik's boyfriend.

Are you done with your class? Can I see you today?

We can meet up,

but it'll have to be later in the day.

Ji-won is taking everyone out for a birthday party.

I don't know about the others,

but I can't ignore Ji-won's birthday.

Goodness, it's Ji-won's birthday today?

Then you should go.

Enjoy the party and call me.

We can always meet up tomorrow.

If not, we can meet on the weekend.

You know me.

I'm not the petty type who restricts his girlfriend.

Yes, of course.

Thank you for being so understanding.

If it were me, I would already be fuming.

I'm glad you know.

Don't drink too much this time.

You don't want to black out again.

I won't drink. There will be no drinking today.

Anyway, I'll call you.

I miss you so much!

She misses me. Could she be more adorable?

Who should I have dinner with today?

I hate eating alone.

Gyu-jin, I was on my way to see you.

Would you like to grab dinner with me?

I'm tired. Let's just go home.

Come on. Let's grab dinner.

I need to kill some time outside.

Do that at home.

I can give you a ride. Go home.

-But-- -Dr. Yoon.

An urgent patient is on the way. Could you stay?

-Did we get a call? -Yes, they're almost here.

Sure, I'm on my way.

You heard that, right? Enjoy your dinner.

But I don't want to be home alone.

Yes, it's me.

Could I delay Jae-min's math class to 7 p.m.?

He's seeing a doctor for his stomachache.

It's probably stress-related again.

Yes, it's always the case.

Jae-min, can you bend your legs?

-I already did. -Try to breathe comfortably.

-My stomach hurts. -Okay.

I feel like throwing up.

I see.

I'll press your stomach. Tell me if it hurts.

Here.

Okay, here.

And here--

It hurts.

Okay. Thank you.

What's wrong with him, Dr. Yoon?

It seems like acute enteritis.

Enteritis?

Yes.

He has a fever, and he's short of breath.

It would be better to have him admitted

and check his condition overnight.

What's there to monitor when it's enteritis?

That's only based on my preliminary examination,

but if his symptoms worsen,

it could be something else.

Never mind.

We're way behind schedule. Jae-min, get up.

Put your shoes on.

Let's button your shirt.

He's competing in the mathematical Olympiad tomorrow.

Please leave out any medication that makes him drowsy.

Jae-min.

Are you sure you'll be all right?

If we don't leave now, we'll be stuck in traffic.

Ma'am, Jae-min's health is most important here,

so please make sure he gets enough rest today.

Okay, Doctor.

Also,

if he has trouble breathing or runs a fever tonight,

you must bring him to the ER.

Got it.

Let's go. Come on.

This is a surprise.

I didn't tell you to come over, but you did.

Were you too busy dating these days?

Why? Did she call it a day today?

Mom, I came because I missed you.

What? No way.

Did you really miss me?

What? Of course.

I missed you, Mom.

Check this out.

Isn't it pretty?

I'm not sure.

Isn't it stifling to wear a scarf in this weather?

Try being at the coffee shop all day.

The cold air from the AC creeps up and down my bare neck.

Anyway, it was a gift from Da-hee.

From Da-hee?

Yes, I paid her extra for working part-time for me,

so she came over to buy me dinner.

After dinner, we went shopping together, and that's when she bought me this.

It wasn't expensive, but it's the thought that counts.

She took my arm endearingly,

and it felt nice, as if she was my daughter.

Yes, that's right. Song Da-hee sure is the sweetest.

That's not how you should refer to your former in-law!

What else should I call her, then? Song Na-hee?

Why would you even mention that name?

The delivered items were put in storage, and I placed an order

for 20 black and pink polo shirts each.

Okay, you can go home.

Would it kill you to tell me I did a good job?

Wretched brat.

Ms. Song.

I'm glad I caught you before you left.

Yes, is there something you need me to do?

That's not it.

It's about the in-house contest.

Ju-yeong's wasn't good enough.

So I went over all the submissions, and yours was clearly the best.

Really? Thank you so much.

The manager has the final say,

so I can't overturn her decision.

But from what I've seen, you have a good sense of fashion,

and you're great with customers.

It'd be a waste to keep you just as a junior employee.

So I want to recommend you

for the manager spot at our new Cheongdam branch.

What do you say?

My gosh. Really?

Jun-seon's running late today.

He has meetings after training

and spends all night developing action sequences.

I'm worried he might exhaust himself.

Staying busy is how he keeps his mind off things.

-Hello? -Hyo-sin.

Where are you? At home?

Yes. Why?

Then meet me outside. I have something to celebrate.

Sure thing. Got it.

Can you fold these for me? I'm heading out.

He's off to meet a girl, isn't he?

Looks like it.

Why else would he seem excited?

He acted like he wasn't interested in girls.

That sly punk.

Hyo-sin, over here.

Cheers.

That's good.

In the end, it's even better than winning the contest.

Becoming a manager is the same as a promotion.

Exactly.

A manager at a branch in Cheongdam-dong? It doesn't get better than that.

Then why don't you seem happy about it?

Shouldn't you be on cloud nine?

How perceptive of you. How did you know?

Is something else troubling you?

You see,

I got to thinking ever since my manager tossed aside my submission.

"Maybe I should do what I want before it's too late."

Something like that.

But this new job offer is too tempting.

Becoming a manager means a bigger paycheck.

Then I can buy Ji-hun a new laptop

and buy him delicious food.

I can even give my parents extra money to spend.

It'll provide me with so many options.

What is it that you truly want to do?

Running a clothing store.

I want to pick out clothes I like,

match them the way I want, and attract customers.

It'll take time for it to settle down.

And success is not guaranteed.

If you think about it, it's really a no-brainer.

I should take the manager job.

After all, I'm a mother.

So what? I think differently.

What?

I may not know many things, but this I do.

Ji-hun will only be happy if his mother is.

Gosh. When did she take my mom out to dinner and buy her a gift?

Da-hee, you sweet gem.

I wonder if the birthday party is over. Maybe I should call.

No, let's not. If I keep calling her, it will make me seem petty.

Don't call her. Let's not.

Myungin University, birthday party.

MYUNGIN UNIVERSITY BIRTHDAY PARTY

There she is. There's my girlfriend.

This is Yeong-a, right? Let's check out her Instagram.

There it is.

Gosh.

She's having a blast being the captain of these young sailors.

All right.

Right.

Ji-won?

Ji-won…

Ji-won is a guy? A guy?

What the…

Hold on.

Ji-won is the vice class representative who's also really friendly.

Ji-won took me home.

Ji-won took care of me the whole time.

Ji-won is taking everyone out for a birthday party.

Ji-won… Ji-won…

Ji-won…

Sir, change of plans. Take me to Myungin University! Hurry!

My gosh. If I barge in right now,

I'll look like a possessive boyfriend.

Darn it.

-Happy birthday to you -Happy birthday to you

Thanks, guys.

If you had told me, I would've bought a gift.

-I'm sorry to have come empty-handed. -Don't worry about it, Da-hee.

You can treat me sometime at the cafeteria.

Sure, anytime.

Let's eat. It's on me today.

-Nice. -Thanks.

It's really good.

Try that.

-It's so good. -Is it?

Yes.

Gosh, that's good.

It's really good.

Gosh, Da-hee.

My goodness. Jae-seok?

What are you doing here?

My friend and I were to meet here, but he suddenly canceled on me.

I can't believe we crossed paths like this.

How peculiar.

Aren't you the one who dropped off the sushi?

You're her boyfriend.

Oh, her boyfriend?

That's right.

I'm Da-hee's boyfriend. It's nice to meet you.

My gosh.

You have no idea how worried I was.

The last thing I wanted was for her

to be ostracized by her young classmates.

But seeing you guys today proves…

just how foolish I was to worry about it.

There's no need to worry. She's been having a blast.

She's so good at adjusting to new environments.

Come on. It's all thanks to you guys.

I must be lucky when it comes to having friends.

You're absolutely right.

It sure seems that way.

Ji-won, I heard you are helping her out as the vice class representative.

Right.

Excuse me, can I get another cup of ice?

Biting on ice isn't good for you, you know.

Small cracks can occur in your teeth if you bite down on ice too often.

Biting on hard objects can…

My gosh, I went into too much detail, didn't I?

Sorry, it comes with the job.

What do you do for a living?

I'm a dentist at a children's hospital.

Bring in your nephews and nieces if they need a checkup.

I can't offer a discount since it's not my hospital,

but I promise to do my absolute best.

Got it?

Enjoy, Da-hee.

Sure, Jae-seok.

Thank you all for coming today.

I served a great deal, so please eat up.

Oh, right. This is our new menu.

I made it to receive some feedback.

-Let me try. -Please go ahead.

How is it?

It's really good.

She's right. This one's not that bad.

Why did you make ones that tasted odd

when you clearly have the ability to do better?

Exactly.

I guess I'm lacking in a lot of ways,

with the gimbap and community life here.

I should've arranged a gathering like this sooner.

I'm sorry about that.

No, don't be. It's not easy to gather like this,

so we should be thanking you. I feel like we are united.

-She's right. -She sure is.

It's nice to be officially invited too.

Of course. I couldn't be more grateful.

We caused a lot of trouble unintentionally,

and there's been a lot of commotion.

But we were just trying to adjust, so I hope you understand

and be patient with us.

Once you get to know us, you'll learn that we're pretty likable.

I hope this can be the beginning of a good friendship.

Also, give us an earful if we do something wrong.

What? Raising our voices

might earn a punch from you.

We all know how strong you are.

Don't we know it.

Truth be told, we're not proud of our actions either.

It was probably awkward enough for you,

but instead of helping you adjust,

we spread odd rumors.

From now on, let's work hard to get along. Are we all in agreement?

-Of course. -Must you ask?

The order is coming from the lady at the top.

Your wish is our command.

Let's do that.

Why don't we just be friends?

Yes, friends. We can be friends.

Sure.

This is so heartwarming.

This is really nice, you guys.

It's great to hear a nice remark from the pretty girls.

All right. Let's make a toast and drink together, then.

-Okay. -Let's do that.

To the good health of the merchants' association ladies.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Give me a break.

Ms. Kang, why are you still single?

What's your family like?

It would take me all night to tell you about it.

Now that we have some time, should I tell you about the life I've led?

Sure. We will be here all night to listen to you.

Sure.

We will just take a day off tomorrow.

Don't bother, Cho-yeon.

If you tell them the whole thing,

they will point fingers at you

and talk behind your back later on.

Never get fooled.

Gosh, we won't be like that.

Who doesn't have a difficult life? We're all the same.

You think?

You guys are in a different league compared to us.

You're no match for us.

So don't act like you understand us.

That's just ridiculous.

Guys, she's drunk. Take her to the bedroom.

-Okay. -Okay. Let's go.

-Just go. -Come here.

Get off me. Was I wrong?

Excuse me. Stop it and go to your room.

We're having fun here, but you're ruining it.

Hey, stop it.

What did I do?

She's going way too far, like she did last time.

How rude. Where are her manners?

That's right.

I have no manners.

That's who I am. What are you going to do about it?

What about you? Do you think you're sophisticated?

You're no different from me.

And what's that big ribbon in your hair?

It doesn't suit you.

You got on my nerves the most from the beginning. You know that?

What did you say?

Hey!

My brother-in-law saved up to buy me this hairpin.

Why do you even care? And how old are you?

How dare you talk to me like that?

I'm old enough to talk to you like this.

How else am I supposed to talk to you, then?

Hey, Yeon-hong. Go back to your room.

-Yes, go. -Okay, I will.

This unwelcome guest will retire now.

I'll go now.

-My gosh. -My goodness.

Oh, my gosh.

Gosh, I apologize

to the lady who values good manners.

Hey, you did that to me on purpose, didn't you?

Right?

Did you just hit me? Why would you hit me?

How dare you hit me?

My gosh. Stop it, Ok-ja.

Come here.

-Let go of me! -How dare you?

You wench!

-Let go of me, you wench! -Let go!

-Here you are. -Thank you.

Not everything on campus is cheap, I see.

They ate a lot.

-Thank you for the food. -Thank you.

It cost a lot, right?

I'm sorry. I made you spend a lot of money.

It's okay.

This is what I can do for your friends, Da-hee.

We enjoyed the meal.

How should we address him?

Jae-seok or Dr. Yoon?

It doesn't matter.

Just don't call me a jerk.

Thank you for the food. I was going to pay.

It's okay. You're a student. You're not making money.

I'll go now. See you tomorrow.

Okay. Bye. Once again, happy birthday, Ji-won.

Happy birthday.

See you around, Ji-won.

Are you going to come again?

"Are you going to come again?"

How amazing.

I can't believe we ran into each other there.

Come to think of it,

so many things happened to us by coincidence.

We even met at a bar by chance back then.

-Right? -Well… Yes.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Anyway, it's nice walking with you holding hands like this.

Yes, I also think it's nice.

But why didn't you tell me that Ji-won was a guy?

What? Did you not know?

Of course not.

You didn't tell me he was a guy.

What? I never said he was a girl either.

Oh, right.

How old is that jerk-- I mean,

how old is he? Has he finished his military service?

No. You can easily tell that he's young.

He's bright and shiny.

And he has a nice personality.

He's affable and takes good care of others.

Does he have a girlfriend? I bet he does.

I don't know. I don't think he has one.

That must be why he had a birthday party with us.

But why do you keep asking about him?

No reason.

That jerk seems to be pretty close-- I mean,

you two seem to be close friends.

I guess you're right.

He's my closest friend for now.

By any chance, are you being jealous?

Gosh, I'm not jealous.

I don't get jealous.

I think you are jealous of him.

Does he bother you?

Because he's so young and handsome?

Gosh, no.

I really don't get jealous.

You know me. I have very high self-esteem.

Judging by how startled you are, I can tell you're jealous.

It turns out Jae-seok was a jealous boyfriend.

What should I do now? I'm in trouble.

Gosh, I said no. Stop it.

Da-hee, why are you being like this to me today?

I'm really upset. I'm not jealous.

Are you having a hard time falling asleep?

What?

Are you still up?

Did I wake you?

No.

I was just about to fall asleep.

Mom.

If you're not sleepy, do you want to play with me?

Shall we?

Let's just play for ten minutes, then.

What is it?

-What's troubling you? -What?

How did you know that I was troubled?

You usually fall asleep as soon as you lie down.

But you tend to stay up if you have a lot on your mind.

Ji-hun, you see right through me.

You're right. I have something on my mind.

Ji-hun.

There's something I want to do.

Do you think I should give it a try

or just pull myself together

and work hard to get my salary every month?

I want you to give it a try.

Why?

You will be happier that way.

I'm happy when you are happy.

Are you sure? Can I really do that?

We might be financially unstable for a while like before.

It's okay.

And to be honest,

I've saved some money.

I have more than 300,000 won.

I can lend you the money if you need it.

Is that so?

I feel so reassured.

Go away. Get out of here, you wench!

I can't believe this.

You returned kindness with ingratitude.

How could you make a scene like that?

It was hard for me to get them together.

When will you grow up?

I've been cleaning up after your mess all these years.

You haven't gotten any better with age.

If I took care of a dead tree the way I took care of you,

it would've been in full bloom by now.

I wasn't in a very good condition,

and I know I made a mistake yesterday.

But it was her who got on my nerves first.

I hate it when people say I'm not refined.

Are you saying you did the right thing?

No, that's not what I meant.

We don't need to say much. Just go away.

I can't deal with you.

-Cho-yeon. -Get lost.

I'll go and apologize to the ladies. Get ready to open up.

Once she's gone, sprinkle salt everywhere.

Okay, Cho-yeon. See you later.

We'll get ready to open.

Do you see my scalp here? There's a bald spot, right?

-Here. -I think so. I'm not sure.

Will you stop checking?

Staring at it won't bring back the hair you lost.

How did you get into such a bad fight?

I don't know.

She was drunk, and she suddenly grabbed my hair.

Why did you upset her?

She looked like a nasty witch.

And you pulled out a good chunk of her hair too.

I was defending myself.

She's the one who started it.

Hello.

-Hello. -Welcome, Ms. Kang.

Hello.

I brought this.

Thank you.

My birthday rice cake that I couldn't serve yesterday.

Ms. Jang, are you okay?

She's fine. She isn't hurt or anything.

I'm so sorry.

You came to wish me well and the party got ruined.

That witch…

She's very remorseful.

I scolded her harshly.

So please don't be too angry, Ms. Jang.

I have no hard feelings toward you.

Why should you apologize?

But I have to say, that woman has a really weird personality.

She's legendary.

How long is she going to stay with you?

I don't know. I'll send her away as soon as possible.

I'm sorry, Ms. Jang.

What? She acted like she was leaving, so why isn't she?

I don't know. She should just go.

What? You're still here?

Yes. I was just about to leave.

I won't come back again, Cho-yeon. I'm sorry.

That sounds good. Let's never meet again.

Take care.

Okay. Bye.

Girls, take care.

We will. Goodbye.

Have a safe trip.

Why won't this move? Are the wheels broken?

Hey, did you season the rice?

Yes.

Taste it yourself.

My tummy hurts.

Cho-yeon, can I go to the toilet before I leave?

My stomach suddenly hurts.

My gosh.

If you want to put on a show, practice your acting.

Cho-yeon.

I don't believe you.

I always think of your mom at times like this.

Why do I do this to myself?

You can't stay a day over our deal.

It's only until then, okay?

Okay. I'll act like I'm not even around.

I'm sorry.

-Cho-yeon. -Why did you give in?

I can't stand this.

The manager position you offered me yesterday…

I'm so grateful for the offer,

and the fact that you acknowledged me

felt like a shower of rain after a drought

because I had low self-esteem.

But I think

you should find someone else.

I plan to resign.

Why so suddenly? Is something wrong?

No. I want to start my own small business.

I might never get to try if I put it off any longer.

I'm sorry. You cared a lot about me.

What did you two talk about?

Was it about work?

I'm not sure if I should answer that.

Here.

Why are you giving me this?

I just quit.

So I'm returning it.

How could you quit without even discussing it with me?

It just happened.

So,

I'll speak to you without honorifics now.

I'm a bit…

No. I'm way older than you.

Ms. Song!

Don't interrupt!

Here's some advice from an elder.

You should be nice.

You make others do your job

and clean the storage room when you're upset.

The other workers are too sweet.

If I worked here a month longer, I would've beaten you up.

My goodness.

Why, that…

How dare a kid treat me like that?

I thought she'd really kick me out.

She's too affectionate.

She's too soft. That's why she always struggles.

My goodness.

How old is this relic?

It's wrapped up so tight.

Is it something expensive?

Hello? Who's this?

You can't come here.

I said I'd call you when I got the money.

But you didn't call.

You're hiding from us because you can't get the money.

Who said I'm hiding?

I'm here to see a close friend.

My gosh.

Listen, Ms. Hong.

You're accumulating interest every second.

The principal and interest

add up to 65 million won!

How will you pay all that back?

What? I borrowed 40 million won.

How can the interest be 25 million won?

I get that you're a loan shark,

but 30% interest each month?

I can't afford to pay that back.

Others manage just fine.

Why? Because I make them pay me back.

Do you need some help, Ms. Hong?

Shall I help you?

Shall I make you pay me back?

Give me a little time. A week.

You and your darn week! You always ask for another week!

Hong Yeon-hong, you darn woman with the same name back to front.

You are testing my patience!

Then two days. Just two days.

I'll get the money and call you.

Please.

Okay, you have two more days.

No longer than that.

I waited long enough, didn't I?

Let's go.

Hear me out first.

You should go.

It's a good opportunity.

That is…

what I should say. For your sake.

What's the matter?

Dr. Yoon's patient from yesterday is getting CPR in the ER.

Wake up.

Coming through.

Doctor, what's wrong with him?

How long has he been like this?

I don't know. He wanted to lie down since this morning.

He said he felt weak and that he couldn't breathe.

Okay. Let's start.

One, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

What's the diagnosis?

I saw him yesterday. He just went into cardiac arrest.

Seven, eight, nine, ten. One, two…

Isn't it myocarditis? I'll secure the airway.

Come on.

I'll talk to the press and sue you too! Don't stop me!

Stop blaming yourself!

Is Gyu-jin not picking up?

Is there anything to sell? Like gold?

How will you pay me back? Answer me!

What's going on here?

Cho-yeon.

I searched every internet café in this town to find you.

You and Mom do whatever you want, so I'm doing the same.

As naturally as possible, okay?

Why don't we hold hands?

One, two, three.

Okay, next.

You and Da-hee are in-laws, right? And now you're dating in secret.

What?

My gosh, Da-hee.
