Original subtitles

I'll go back to university.

- What? - What?

University? What university?

I'll study and transfer to a four-year university.

Mom. Dad.

It's been my dream to study child psychology,

so that's what I'll do.

I'll get my diploma, become a certified psychologist,

and do what I love...

while being someone who's needed.

That's the only way for me to love myself too.

Do you even know how difficult it is to transfer schools?

You're being ridiculous.

Consider your age too.

Your brain won't be able to keep up.

Besides, you weren't a smart kid in school...

I mean, your grades were slightly below average.

Da Hee, it doesn't seem like you're thinking rationally.

This isn't the right way to deal with the shock...

from your annulment.

You're practically throwing another grenade at us.

We're dying here.

Just remember that this is our last shelter.

He's right!

I know that.

I also know that it's absurd and that I'm not very smart.

But that's why I'm going to give it my all.

Please believe in me this one time.

I won't ask you to pay for any of my classes.

I'll get a part-time job and pay for them myself.

I just think...

it's my last time to take this chance.

So please...

Da Hee,

I understand how you feel,

but your siblings are right.

You know how difficult transfer exams are.

Money isn't the issue. The timing...

Go for it.

Go ahead.

If other people can do it,

so can you.

Na Hee is proof that cleverness runs in the family...

and her grades...

were better than Joon Seon's anyway.

So just give it a go.

We'll consider it as something...

we should've made her do 10 years ago.

Mom...

It's just like you said.

Consider this as your last chance...

and do your very best.

So make a life for yourself...

that won't be looked down on by others.

You can do it too.

My gosh, Ok Boon. You couldn't be more encouraging.

Thanks, Mom!

I'll study my butt off...

and I'll show you that it can be done.

Honey, what has gotten into you?

What do you mean?

That wasn't like you at all.

"Cut the nonsense."

"First an annulment and now a new career?"

The old you would've discouraged her immediately.

I don't always discourage our kids, you know.

It said on the news that it's easier...

to change your nationality than your level of education.

That's just how the world is.

Da Hee must've been frustrated with it all too.

Is that really the only reason?

What other reason can there be?

Am I not allowed to encourage her now?

Well, if that's the case...

I'm just sorry,

that's all.

Every child will frustrate you in the same amount.

Ok Ja calls it the principle of trouble conservation.

Out of all our children,

Da Hee has caused the least trouble.

She had to clean up after her siblings...

and tend to Na Hee while she studied.

We've never done anything for her directly.

Our lack of expectancy...

could be the reason why she never aimed high.

I don't want...

to see her be discouraged anymore.

I want to believe in her and let her do what she wants to do.

I'll encourage her just like I should've years ago.

Sure. Let's do exactly that.

I guess parenting keeps teaching us new things.

- Gosh. - Goodness.

I'd wish I could stop being taught new lessons though.

- Turn off the light, will you? - Sure thing.

(Cohabitation Contract)

Okay, good. That's easily readable.

Since this is my space, I can move around the furniture.

Sure thing.

Just memorize the contract by heart...

so that we don't get in each other's hair.

I'm more worried about you, you know.

From now on, we both have to clean and do laundry.

And we both know you're terrible at housekeeping.

Worry about yourself and mind your own business.

That's right. Why would I even worry about you?

Can you now go back to your space then?

I'd like to get changed and go to bed.

Yes. Sure thing.

Unbelievable!

You've got to be kidding me.

Hey! What... Why didn't you knock?

Don't invade my privacy. We're not married now, you know.

Sorry. I left my phone out here.

What am I supposed to do then?

I need to use the bathroom and the kitchen too.

Then at least knock.

I graciously let you have the bedroom, didn't I?

Okay, noted.

As if there's anything I'd actually like to see.

What do you mean by that?

Na Hee, what do you mean?

Is it salty?

Gosh, it's perfect.

I see you're awake.

You see, skipping breakfast has been leading...

to stomachaches.

As if I asked.

Rolled eggs.

How soft.

The kimchi looks super crunchy too.

I could eat seconds and thirds.

Is what you're having good?

Yes, you know how I enjoy light breakfasts.

It helps me focus more in the mornings.

Well, you have liked the American style.

It must keep your stomach at ease though.

Na Hee!

That's the milk I bought.

Clause three of the Cohabitation Code.

You never touch your housemate's belongings.

When caught, you will have to pay three times the price.

Read the Cohabitation Code again.

What? Oh, my gosh.

I should've hung these out to dry yesterday.

There.

Wait, stop.

Isn't it Thursday today?

Clause five of the Cohabitation Code.

Yoon does his laundry on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays...

while Song does hers on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Who does it on Sundays will be up for debate.

Did you not memorize that clause?

But I still need something to wear to work.

- It's wet. - That's your problem.

Darn it.

I'll just dry them myself.

Hold it!

I bought the dryer, so don't even think about it.

Good morning...

Hi, guys. I see you're all here early.

What on earth are you wearing?

I just wanted to wear it today.

There's no...

particular dress code for doctors, right?

The government has been promoting shorts at the office too.

You should wear something like this too.

Of course, you can wear whatever you want.

I actually find it stylish even.

Didn't we agree to go over the research paper for the fall?

Where's the material?

In front of you.

- Good job today. - You all did great.

Have a good day.

Gyu Jin!

What took you so long?

What a nutjob.

How can she be this evil?

No, vicious describes her better.

What?

What are you mumbling about?

Why couldn't you have come earlier?

I said I had a meeting this morning.

I came earlier than usual.

You woke me up yelling that you needed a shirt.

Don't you have one at home?

I told you that none were dry.

The others are at the dry cleaner's.

But you have a dryer at home.

I can't use it today though.

What do you mean? Is it not working?

Don't ask.

Why do you want to know about my personal life?

What's with the temper? Did you and Na Hee argue?

I told you not to ask!

Will you look for an academy to study at today?

Yes, I'll register at the academy...

and look for a part-time job while I'm out.

Auntie, it's admirable. I wish you the best.

Your words couldn't be more encouraging.

Thanks.

Then eat up.

You can't study unless you're fit enough.

Look at you, receiving special treatment now.

Good for you, Last One.

You're right. Maybe I should go back to school too.

Is there an age limit to studying at college?

Ga Hee and Joon Seon.

Don't call me Last One anymore.

- What? - What?

Don't call me Last One anymore.

The Last One is no longer...

and I've been born anew.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't call me...

by any nicknames that belittle me.

Why are you guys laughing?

Because you sounded so serious.

"Don't call me Last One anymore."

"I've been born anew."

But we're so used to it.

Can't we keep calling you that?

Shut it and do as she wants.

I don't like hearing you call her that either.

You'll be banned from meals if you call her that again.

Mom, you're overreacting.

Why can't we call her that when it's who she is?

Listen to your mom, you punks.

What if I called you Loafer 1 and Loafer 2?

Gosh, no.

Got it, Dad.

Tell Mr. Yang to bring by...

a kilogram of pork on his way over.

Why? Is it for Da Hee?

At this rate, we might have an Ivy Leaguer on our hands.

I don't know if we should let her get this part-time job.

Shouldn't she devote all her time to her studies?

Can't you pay for her classes instead?

But this is what she wants, so just let her...

follow her own plans for now.

But still...

You said you wanted to believe in her and encourage her.

I'm sure that Da Hee will do a good job.

She gets her tenaciousness from me, remember?

Come on. Is that really the reason?

Maybe you think it's a waste of money.

Must you put it like that?

Am I really one to be that cruel to my kids?

My goodness, we're late. Ok Ja will be angry.

Gosh.

Where are you going? I thought we were running late.

Be quiet.

My gosh.

Hello! Yes, I'd like some.

Gosh!

Why is she even here? I can't believe this.

She's not a friend but the bane of my existence.

My darn life.

I'm here to register for the morning classes.

Please fill out this form.

None of these jobs seem fairly easy.

All I need are the evening shifts.

(Looking for a part-timer, from 5 p.m. to closing)

The work is never done.

I posted a job opening long ago, but I didn't get a single call.

Did I even post it right?

My goodness.

I can't believe this.

She wants to transfer to a university after all this time?

Da Hee is unbelievable.

She didn't study when she had to. How would she do that now?

I don't think it's a good idea.

That's my other line, Ga Hee.

(Mother-in-law)

Never mind.

Go on. I don't have to answer it.

Na Hee.

Hang on. What?

You know there is a welcome party for me after work, right?

You have to come.

I really don't like team dinners. Can't we meet some other time?

I know you don't like it, but it's a welcome party for me.

If you don't come, I'll be upset. I'll see you later, okay?

All right.

I'd like to welcome Dr. Yoon Jae Seok.

Cheers, everyone.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Drink up.

Thank you.

Drink up.

I'm watching you.

Dr. Song, over here.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Gosh.

I guess you do care about your broth-in-law.

It's surprising to see Dr. Song at a team dinner.

Please come and have a seat.

What would you like to drink?

You don't like drinking, do you?

I don't really like alcohol.

I'll just drink soda.

Why?

Now that you're here, you should drink with us.

Here.

We already had two rounds each.

Dr. Song, go ahead...

and drink this up.

I really don't want to drink this up.

I will just take my time and drink it slowly.

You can't do that.

You came late, so you need to catch up.

Drink up.

Bottoms up.

- Bottoms up. - Bottoms up.

Sir, I will drink it for her.

- Give it to me. - Hey.

Why would you step up?

If someone is to drink for her, it should be Dr. Yoon.

- Me? - Sure.

Well... I don't mind drinking it for her.

But I'm not sure if Dr. Song wants me to.

Forget it. I'll drink it myself.

You scratch my back and I will scratch yours.

Sir.

It looks great.

Good.

One more.

All right.

- One more. - Again?

That's good.

All right.

Wait, Na Hee. You're drinking too much.

Na Hee.

Here.

Again?

I can't.

I can't drink anymore.

- You hypocrite. - What did you say?

It's romantic when I do it, but an affair when others do it.

When you offer a drink it's just for socializing,

but when I do it, it's being pushy and causing a stir, right?

Just stop forcing everyone to drink.

It's already hard enough to work at the hospital.

I don't want to be stressed out from a team dinner.

When...

When did I force you guys to drink?

Just stay quiet.

My gosh.

Na Hee.

Dr. Song.

That's enough for the basic steps.

Now let's practice...

the moves with your arms.

- Okay. - Okay.

You should pair up with partners first.

Married couples can be partners.

Do I have to do this with my wife?

I want to dance with someone else... No, I can't.

You fool.

I'm sorry, but it seems I don't have a say in this.

For the rest of you...

You two are partners.

And you two.

Excuse me.

I don't want to be his partner.

I'm here to relieve stress, not to get more.

My gosh. I feel the same way.

I'd rather dance alone.

Why don't you just give it a shot?

If it doesn't work for you, I'll change your partners.

Let's begin.

Stand facing each other.

Ladies, put your hand on your partner's shoulder.

Gentlemen, put your hand on your partner's waist.

And hold the other hand.

Look into your partner's eyes passionately.

1 and 2. 2 and...

- Don't laugh. - Three. Cha-cha.

- One. - Ma'am.

What should I do when her nostrils are bigger than her eyes?

What? You fool.

Look. They are even bigger now.

Just keep your mouth shut.

Get off. Let go of me.

I'm not drunk.

I can walk straight.

Why did you drink so much when you can't hold your liquor?

Go on ahead.

Look who it is.

You're my ex-husband.

Are you happy that you got divorced? Are you?

Hey, will you stay quiet?

You're the one who asked for a divorce.

You punk!

Don't live like that.

How can love change?

You sly jerk.

We got divorced because you live like that...

Gyu Jin, your taxi is here.

Hey. My goodness.

Gosh. Hey.

Darn it.

Gosh. I didn't do this even before we got divorced.

Darn it. My back is killing me.

You lunatic.

She even falls off the bed. What a sight to see.

Look at her.

She gets up herself now.

My gosh. This is unbelievable.

Goodnight.

Gosh, it hurts.

Mom, I'm going out.

Aren't you eating breakfast? I'm cooking now.

I don't have time. Training begins today.

This movie has a lot of great scenes.

I'll be on camera many times.

If this thing goes well, I might be paid a lot...

for this movie.

I'll get you a mink coat then.

Forget about a mink coat. Just earn your own keep.

Mom, I'm going out.

I'm attending classes starting today.

You should eat breakfast. You can't study on an empty stomach.

I'll eat something before I head into class.

I'm leaving.

Grandma, I have class duty today so I should leave early.

See you.

They should've told me that they're leaving early.

I always eat rice for breakfast.

Just eat it. I should get to take it easy from time to time.

It feels like I'm chewing rice stalks.

I said just eat.

- Eat. - Okay.

Good morning.

- Hello. - Hello.

- 1 and 2. - Hey.

Jeong Bong, that's a good punch.

- Is Mr. Jang in his office? - Yes.

He's upstairs with Byung Heon.

Okay. Keep practicing. Stay at it!

- Okay! - Okay!

Joon Seon really gets on my nerves.

Why is he so dim-witted?

Why does he act like a senior when he's not even that good?

Is he the CEO?

Is he the martial arts director?

I wish he'd act his age.

Or get wise and quit.

You know how innocent he can be.

That's not being innocent. It's being stupid.

Let's be honest. Do you think it's easy for me to keep him around?

He's old,

has a bad back and is choosy about his stunts.

To be honest, the kids feel uncomfortable around him.

And he's so nosy,

he gets in all their business too.

I wish he'd just fend for himself.

- Byung Heon, don't put up with it. - What?

Speak up if you must.

- Mr. Jang! - Hey, Joon Seon.

- Hello. - Hi.

I have something to say.

I'm really sorry, but I need to quit.

What? Why so suddenly?

Every dog has its day, I guess.

Someone offered to invest in me.

It's this producer from Hong Kong.

Apparently, he's really big in the industry.

He saw some of the stunts I did...

and said I was awesome.

How can I refuse when he offered to invest?

I should give it a go, shouldn't I?

I see. Who is this investor?

What?

There's someone called Tteok Hua.

Tteok Hua?

There's someone. Tteok Hua.

Anyway, I'm really sorry that...

I have to quit like this.

I'll buy you a drink when things are sorted out.

Let's stay in touch, okay?

- Okay... - Good. See you.

- Bye. - Take care.

I wonder how much he'll offer. I have no idea.

Look up Tteok Hua.

- Joon Seon! - Joon Seon!

What do you two want?

We'll come with you!

We don't care for Action Art if you leave!

- Joon Seon! - Joon Seon!

- What, Mom? - You took your sweet time.

Do you know how many times I called yesterday?

Sorry. We had a team dinner yesterday.

What about your wife? Did her dinner start at midday?

She totally ignored my calls.

She must've been busy then.

What? Is something wrong?

The part-timer suddenly quit.

I had a terrible time running the cafe on my own.

I wanted to ask for help and couldn't reach either of you.

What's wrong with your wife?

Shouldn't she have called me today at least?

What does she think of her mother-in-law?

I'll really do something if she keeps this up.

Mom, I'll...

Mom, I have a long line of patients waiting.

I will, I'll come over when I'm free.

Mom, I'll call you back. Bye, Mom.

It looks like things are about to get real bad.

You must feel okay.

No thanks to someone, my back and shoulder still hurt.

You should've left me alone. Why take me home?

I regret doing so right now.

Don't you go and get drunk anywhere.

You're the type that could get into trouble.

Don't worry. I'll fend for myself.

As if you can. You almost spilled the beans.

Wait.

Mom called yesterday?

Yes. She did.

Couldn't you have just taken it?

What for? Am I obligated to?

She must've called to make us come over.

Clause seven. Both parties must attend family occasions...

like birthdays, national holidays, or ancestral rites.

For other occasions, prior notice must be given.

And they are attended by mutual consent only. Right?

No, no, wait.

Even so...

Come with me.

Let's just talk. Come with me.

Let go of me.

Song Na Hee.

Let's amend a clause.

This might make my life crazy.

Amend how?

You know my mom hates it when you ignore her calls.

Will you help me out here?

Take a minimum number of her calls.

Why should I? The stress she caused was terrifying.

Okay. Then how about this?

We'll count the calls you take.

When we sell our apartment and split the profit,

I'll pay you more per call.

You're getting such great ideas.

How much will you give me? About 100 dollars per call?

That's robbery.

I don't want to take her calls.

You sort out your own mom.

Wait, wait.

Do you think I'm doing this just for my sake?

I'm not.

If you ignore her calls, who do you think Mom will go to?

To us? No. She'll go to your innocent mom.

What will you tell her?

"We got divorced and I have no duty to take her calls, Mom."

You got divorced?

- My gosh. - Divorced?

When affixed with "to", what was a verb...

is still a verb, yes or no? No.

It's no longer a verb now.

In English, what always comes after the subject?

I called because I saw you're looking for a part-timer.

You hired someone already? I see.

Okay, I understand. Thank you.

Oh, dear. It's not easy to find part-time work.

Oh? Ms. Choi.

- Hi. - Give me that.

- My gosh. - I'll help you.

Thanks so much.

My part-timer suddenly quit.

This looks too heavy for you.

I have nothing but strength.

Yes.

Shall I put them here?

No, around the corner.

There are a few more inside...

I'm done. Is that all?

Thank you so much.

By the way, Da Hee.

Since you're helping out, could I ask for a favor?

- Sure. - I'm out of bananas.

Could you watch the cafe while I get some?

Okay.

If someone comes in, don't take an order.

Just say fruit juices are available today.

Shall I get the bananas then?

No, no. I have to buy other things too.

I won't be long. Help me out, okay?

Okay. Don't worry then.

- See you. - Bye.

An americano and a vanilla latte, please.

An americano and a vanilla latte?

That's 9 dollars 50. Thanks.

Take a seat and I'll bring those over.

Da Hee.

You're back.

A customer was really craving a coffee.

I worked at another cafe for over a year.

Shall I make you one? Hot?

My gosh. How did you manage to...

transform the cafe in just a short while?

I just cleaned up a few things I noticed.

So, are you all right?

I mean, we experience...

all sorts of things in life,

but there must be some aftereffects.

I'm fine.

Thanks for your concern, Ms. Choi.

Sure. What about work? Are you still on holiday?

No. I quit my job too.

I want to transfer to a university.

Transfer? My goodness. Won't your mom complain?

She might freak out.

No. I have her full support.

But at my age, I can't ask my parents to support me,

so I'll work part-time while taking classes.

Did you find work already then?

No.

I can only work in the evenings because I study during the day,

and I can't find anything suitable.

You can't?

Well, seeing how I need a part-timer right now,

and you live nearby, we can arrange a schedule.

Would you care to work here?

Here? Really?

Yes.

You fools.

Why did you quit with me?

I lied about the investor.

I quit because I couldn't hang in there any longer.

I really have nothing at all.

We know that.

But Joon Seon, you are too important to us.

That's right.

When no one would pay us, saying it was about the experience,

you shared your pay saying...

we needed to make a living too.

Hey. That was only natural because we worked and deserve pay.

No.

You're the only person who thought that's natural.

Forget about that. So, what'll you do now?

You ate and slept at the action school.

Where will you live?

Do you have a plan?

Joon Seon.

When did we ever plan things before causing trouble?

We'll think of something while staying at a sauna.

You two are unbelievable.

Here's your sweet and sour chicken.

Yes, thank you for coming.

We sold all the chicken in stock,

so let's call it a night.

It's been a while since we had that many customers.

We should have days like this too.

Who says we always have to have bad days?

Mom, Dad, Auntie!

Da Hee, it's you.

Why are you here?

To go home with you two.

- Shouldn't you be closing up? - Right.

Wait a few minutes.

- I'll go pay for the peanuts. - Sure.

I hear you enrolled at an academy today.

Go for it when you can.

Get into a better university than Na Hee did...

and make her eat her words.

Yes, ma'am!

Mom, I even got myself a part-time job.

It's close by and the hours are perfect.

Is that so? Where is it?

Won't it interfere with your studies?

Of course not.

It's at Ms. Choi's cafe.

- I'll be taking the evening shifts. - What?

At Yun Jeong's cafe?

Are you insane?

Why would you work for her?

Why not? It fits my schedule and the pay isn't bad.

I'm more than grateful.

That's out of the question!

This is a joke.

Did she actually ask you to work for her?

Yes, I met her on my way here...

and she was looking for a part-timer.

She said she'd rather give me the job than...

She'd give you the job? Don't you know how cruel she is?

A few days ago, she...

Anyway, my answer is no.

Don't you work there. I don't approve.

Aren't they friends?

Why does she hate her?

They've been...

at each other's throats since high school.

I guess you can call them rivals.

Being the jealous type,

Yun Jeong has always been mean to your mom.

There's bad blood between them.

You...

stay put.

I'll deal with her myself.
