Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Childless Comfort @ Viki.com

What are you doing?

Take your coat off and follow me.

What are you doing?

- You're not hungry?
- I am.

- I'm making dinner.
- I thought we were having drinks.

You can't drink on an empty stomach, so we're going to eat first.

- But what are you doing with the rice?
- I'm making sushi.

- You're making it yourself?
- Yes.

- Have a seat.
- Why don't we just order in?

It's alright, it's really simple to make.

Can I help with anything?

You can help cool the rice. Come over here.

Be gentle with it, okay?

Let's have some of this first and then have the sushi.

Have a seat.

Are you tired? You've suddenly gone mute.

When did you learn to cook?

Cooking and doing housework is my hobby.

What, are you moved?

I guess I understand.

Pour me a glass.

You've only seen me knocking back drinks.

That's right.

Cheers.

Thanks a lot for acting as my fiancé.

Did you plan all this in advance?

Nonsense.

I had time in between surgeries
so went down to do some grocery shopping.

Don't get the wrong idea. I just wanted sushi.

That's a relief. I was afraid it's supposed to mean something.

Cheers.

Aren't you going to ask what it is?
It's crab and abalone soup.

It's not polite to eat a dish without knowing what it is.

Okay, the mute one has tasted it.

- How is it?
- It tastes quite comical.

Hey.

- What?
- Don't be so nervous.

I'm not nervous. What do I have to be nervous about?

You are.

All this is is a small show of appreciation
for acting as my fiancé.

- I know.
- I'm not trying to seduce you.

Even if you were, I wouldn't fall for it.

I don't believe this.

You're making it seem like I planned all this
to lure you in and try to seduce you.

You're overreacting. I'm not thinking anything

but you're making me seem like an idiot,
telling me that I look nervous.

Wait.

I almost forgot. I'll be back.

- What's this?
- It's not polite to ask before you open it.

And you'd better act happy and surprised
if you know your manners. Okay?

Didn't I tell you to act happy and surprised a second ago?

What's this for?

You refused to be reimbursed for our expenses,
so this is how I'm repaying you.

But this is something you give to a man.

- Are you a woman?
- I mean…

This is the kind of thing you give…

to someone you're going to marry.

You're so old-fashioned. I just really like watches,

so I tend to give it as a gift whenever I find a man I like.

But don't worry.

In this case it was like buying a gift
for my younger brother, so don't freak out.

Try it on.

Who wears watches nowadays when we have our cell phones?

I've seen you wear them before.

Wear it when you want to impress a girl.

It wasn't incredibly expensive but it's a fairly good watch.

Try it on!

Let me ask you something.

What is it?

Was this supposed to be for the guy
you went all the way to the U.S. for?

- Just try it on.
- No.

You're going to regret it if I show you the receipt.

Don't make me show you.

Let me see it.

- See?
- I'm still looking.

Give me your wrist.

Thank you, Young-hyun.

Say it, punk!

Can we get back to eating?

Ouch, that hurts.

Alright, alright.

Stop moaning. The kids might hear and get the wrong idea.

They're a bit late today.

What time is it?

10:15

I'm exhausted but can't fall asleep.

- Do you want some wine?
- I don't want to get up.

- I'll bring it.

- Are you asleep?
- No.

You turned off all the lights when I hadn't even come home yet.

- Could you bring us some wine?
- You want snacks with that?

Thank you, Young-hyun.

Thank you, Young-hyun.

What are you doing?

I'm just conflicted.

About what?

About my senior who was dumped
and pitifully returned home,

who has no friends or man to have a drink with

so she calls over her junior,
cooks for him and gives him an expensive gift.

How lonely must she be to resort to me,
who she bosses around and treats like a child.

What could all this mean?

I'm confused as to
whether I'm supposed to be a one-night stand,

or whether this is out of pure platonic love.

And?

If you do have ulterior motives,

I'm wondering whether I should go with it out of respect

or whether I should play dumb and leave right after drinks.

It may be insulting to you if I left,
but I wouldn't feel great about the former.

Just because you're drunk doesn't mean you can talk nonsense.

That's it. Get out of here.

- You want me to go?
- That's right.

- Did I catch you out?
- How dare you speak to me like that?

I don't care what you think but watch your mouth.

- Get up.
- I'm actually not drunk yet.

You…

Hey, don't you dare!

- Who's that?
- I don't know.

- Who is it?
- This is the security guard.

- Hi, what is it?
- You had a package delivered.

The day shift must have forgotten earlier.

- It's fish sent from Jeju Island.
- Thank you.

By the way, they came by to shut the heater blinds,

but the housekeeper told them to come back later
because you were sleeping.

I'll tell her to call them back up tomorrow.

Please do. You don't want your house to get too cold.

I will. Thank you.

- Have a good night.
- You too.

Take this out to the balcony.

We should tell the kids to make their own kimchi next year.

That's what we said last year and for two years before that.

I know.

But when Mother prepares the pepper flakes,
or even begins planting the cabbages,

I can't bear to bring it up when she's planning
to make it for the whole family.

We have no choice as long as your parents are here.

At least we don't eat as much kimchi as we used to.

If your parents were not here,

I would make the other two families
take turns making all our kimchi.

That's a good idea.

- Sung-ki's still not home.
- He's late.

About Yoo-jung…

- don't you think she's being too cold to Hyo-joo?
- That's just the way she is. Why?

It's just that she doesn't seem too fond of her.

If I had a daughter-in-law, I'd baby her more than my own child.

That's because you'd be the father-in-law.

- Hee-myung seems to like her.
- Yes, he seems content.

You know how against the marriage she was before she gave in.

This is nothing compared to back then.

It takes time for cold people like her
to settle and accept someone.

She seemed okay with Hee-myung,
from what I observed when we went camping.

That's the last glass of the night.

I'm going to save it.

Hyo-joo says she's too tired to come out and wants to sleep.

We're only going to have one drink. Tell her to come out.

Let her rest. She's exhausted from making kimchi.

It's not like she did much to help.

But even watching is tiring, and you know
she had to run errands for it all day.

- Tell her to come out.
- Leave her alone, Mom.

It's not like she can't drink.

She should know better than to reject
her father-in-law, no matter how tired she is.

Fine, I was the one who told her to rest.

But I'll just go tell her to come out.

See? She's here even when I told her to stay in.

Come, have a seat.

Here.

- Don't you have any manners?
- Honey.

When your father-in-law asks to have a drink,
you should come out in a heartbeat.

Mother…

I don't understand you, no matter how hard I try.

I know that kids these days don't like tending to their in-laws,

but if you married into a family,
you should do your part as a daughter-in-law.

She's here now, it's alright.

I don't care how great you are, you should still know your place.

- Mom, her feet are completely swollen.
- It's alright.

I never refused to come out, Mother.

I was applying some ointment on my feet
to bring the swelling down

but Dae-ki went ahead and told you that I was too tired.

I know you're not very fond of me to begin with,

but I'm a bit taken aback that you're being outright harsh.

I thought you said she wanted to sleep.

- The thing is…
- I did tell him that.

But I never said I didn't want to come out.

I was about to come out
but Dae-ki just made it seem like I was sleeping.

Yes, it was my fault.

Stop it, it's not a big deal. Let's drink up.

This is all your fault, Dae-ki.

You tried too hard to cover for Hyo-joo

and made me misunderstand and scold her. You're impossible.

That's right. Especially to you, Mother,
who is always ready to misunderstand me.

He's not very bright.

I'm always ready to misunderstand you?
How could you say that to your mother-in-law?

It's the truth. Am I wrong?

That's how you make me feel.

I know I'm not perfect and I do things that you don't like at times,

but whether it's about something big or small,
it hurts me so much when you're harsh toward me.

- Hyo-joo.
- Father, may I have a drink?

Go ahead.

I'm sorry, Mother,
but it's so hard to live with someone who hates me.

Hyo-joo.

Your mother-in-law is not a bad person.

She may not have liked you in the past,

but she's not one to make your life miserable for no reason.

I think your inferiority complex and boundaries
are more the problem.

Is that so, Mother?

Can't you stop constantly speaking out
and talking back to me?

But I'm providing explanations so I can make you understand.

But you talk back about each and every thing I say.

She's not talking back, she's just explaining herself.

I've never seen a daughter-in-law like you.

I'm just setting you straight.

- But Mother…
- Just tell her you're sorry and leave it at that.

Okay. I'm sorry, Mother.

I wanted to treat you like my own daughter.

I wanted to treat you like my own mother
and receive the love I never had.

That's wonderful.

Did you hear that, honey? Hyo-joo is being sincere.

You're too harsh on her, Mom.

- Let's go.
- Stop it.

Come on!

That hurt!

Did you just bite him?
What do you think you're doing?

- Who is that?
- How hard did she bite you? Let me see.

I'm alright, Mother.

Who is it?

It's us, Hee-myung!

Mother made us fried chicken feet
and I came to bring some over.

Hey, you're already having drinks.

We've brought soju too.
It goes perfectly well with chicken feet.

You're right. Let's have some soju instead.

Let's finish our drinks and start over, alright?

- Drink up, honey.
- It's 11 o'clock.

I told you it might be too late.

So I had Hee-gyu check to see
if your lights were on first, Yoo-jung.

Dae-ki, could you bring me some milk?

I need it because the chicken is so spicy.

Just thinking about it makes my tongue all hot.

It didn't mean anything.

- I sacrificed myself.
- It was a huge mistake.

I couldn't bear to affront a woman.

- Does that make you feel better?
- It was an accident.

Does that justify it?

What man says no to a woman in revealing clothes
and is obviously trying to seduce him?

Do you feel better now?

Let's leave it. It was an accident.

How long has it been? You were pretty clumsy in bed.

You're just a big brute with only strength to show for.

I guess Sung-ki's staying out tonight.

- Mom.
- What?

- Is Yoo-jin asleep?
- Yes, why?

I just want to see her. Turn the light on.

Want to come sleep with Mommy?

Bring her crib here.

But we're leaving in the spring. Can't you just buy her one?

I don't have the money.

- Just buy her one.
- They're not cheap, you know.

Yes, they're quite inexpensive.

- Dad, I've brought you coffee.
- Come in.

- Here.
- Thanks.

- Sung-ki never came home.
- He didn't?

I didn't sleep well last night.
Yoo-jin kept waking up whenever I'd move.

My neck and shoulders are killing me
from supporting her all night.

- Did you hear me?
- Yeah.

I'm home.

- Did you just get home?
- I did.

- Where did you stay?
- Mom.

- I had too much to drink.
- Why didn't you call?

It just happened.

- Who were you with?
- Mom.

Don't let your grandparents know about this.

Okay.

He's not a kid, you know.

Your grandparents think I've raised you wrong.
I won't go easy on him anymore.

This is not his day.

Come in.

I'm home.

I had some drinks.

Were you stressed from work?

No.

- Did you see your mother?
- I did.

- What did she say?
- She was mad I didn't call.

- Why didn't you?
- It was late and I thought you'd be asleep.

It's been a while since you've done this.

I know. I'm going up to rest.

- Okay. Let's talk later.
- Okay.

- Hello?
- When did you leave?

- Hold on.
- Why, what are you doing?

I said hold on, okay?

Why are you so cross? You have no reason to be angry.

I told you to hold on. Don't you understand what that means?

You're able to talk just fine.
Why do you need me to hold on?

I'm back.

- Where'd you go?
- I was changing.

- You left your undershirt behind.
- I know.

- Is it supposed to be a souvenir?
- I didn't want to look for it.

I found it in my bed. When did you leave?

Why do you care?

I fed you, provided you with drinks and a place to sleep,

and you disappear without even saying good-bye?

I more than paid you back for it.

Dinner was worth 3 grand and I got $10 worth in return.

That was not 3 grand.

You forgot the wine, punk.
That bottle wasn't $20, you know.

How was I supposed to know?
Why would you buy something so expensive?

I knew it wasn't suitable for you.
You were chugging it like it was $10.

You make it sound like I had it all, but you had it, too.

Were you cold last night?

You looked pathetic, all curled up.

All I remember is waking up to see
the tacky flower-print blanket you left on me.

That's the one my housekeeper uses when she takes naps.

But there was a goose down blanket underneath.

I just wanted to give you another layer
and you're complaining about its design?

Are you there?

- Okay, this will never end.
- Why did you leave the watch?

Huh?

Huh?

I thought it'd be weird since we're not dating.

Did I ask you to go out with me?

- You didn't.
- I'm hanging up.

- You're not eating much.
- My appetite has been coming and going.

It'd been slowly going for the past few days
and today it's gone way out of sight.

Do you want something else?

Honey, can you get me a bowl
and mix this salad and soup together?

Okay.

- I'll get it.
- It's alright. She can get it.

- Mother, can you make it for me too?
- Me too, Grandma.

Even with the same ingredients,
it depends on the person making it.

It's a slight difference, but it makes a huge impact.

I see.

Mix it so it's not too dry.

Don't add too much pepper paste,
and go easy on the sesame oil.

Sesame oil has a strong aroma,
and too much can overwhelm the other flavors.

Why aren't you saying anything?

You're right, Father.

Have you gone deaf?

I've heard the same thing for 60 years.
It's not interesting anymore.

For God's sake. I'm not eating.

Father.

What's left that's interesting
when we're over 80 years old?

But that doesn't mean we should just sit here
in silence, staring at each other.

- I didn't mean it that way.
- Forget it. I'm not eating.

Sit down, let's eat.

I wonder if he's done with life.

I don't know what he's thinking.
He just sits there with his mouth all pouty.

I don't know what's wrong with him.

Maybe he's not feeling well.

What?

Are you not feeling well, Father?

- I'm fine.
- Father.

Children in other families go off
to get married and have kids with no trouble.

I know I can't have everything in life
but I can't help feeling distressed at times.

I see.

Should I tell So-young to leave?

If she's making you distressed
maybe it's better to keep her out of sight.

You are an idiot.

Father, you haven't had breakfast.

Mother, Father's just left. Kids, Grandpa's leaving!

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Childless Comfort @ Viki.com

Grandpa. I've brought you food.

Grandma's packed porridge and rice
so you can have whichever you'd like.

The porridge has oysters and you can mix the salad and soup.

I've also brought ginseng tea.

I made sure to close the lids before the food
got cold so it'll taste just like at home.

Plus I biked here at about 100km an hour.

I'm giving you 5 months. You have until May.

- What do you mean?
- Who did you stay with last night?

It's not like that. It's not what you think.

It was a girl, wasn't it?

Why can't you take after me?

- Dad.
- You can't live like that.

Seeing this girl and then the next,

taking a bite here and there, then
throwing them away like half-eaten apples.

Don't think that your mother and I don't know anything.

Of course, I understand that
there are probably women who can't leave you alone.

But it's time to stop fooling around and settle down.

You've had your fun. There are no regrets.

- What are you looking at?
- What's brought this on?

Your grandfather is depressed because of you and your sister.

He can't bear to see your sister living the way she is.

It kills me as his son to see him lamenting
about how he can't have everything in life.

He wants you to settle down by spring,

so hurry and find a wife and make your grandfather happy.

- But Dad…
- Don't be so picky.

Just find a gentle, good-natured woman, like your mother.

What's so funny?

- So did you settle for Mom, too?
- Why you...

It wasn't like that with us. We were deeply in love…

Never mind. Anyway, remember what I told you.

You must find someone by May, and the earlier, the better.

If you find one before May, or even next month,

your mother and I will parade around the entire neighborhood.

Do you understand?

Dad, I can't do it.

Don't be picky about it. Settle for 70% of your ideals…

It's not that. I'm just not interested in marriage.

Or, rather, I don't like the idea.

What are you saying?

- I don't want to get married.
- But why not?

Married life is all the same.

I don't want to be responsible for the well-being of a family.

It's confinement.

I want to live my own life and not be tied down.

Are you, by any chance…

…gay?

What?

- If not, why?
- It's just what I want.

There's no way out. You have no choice.

I don't care what you think about marriage.
You're getting married even if the sky fell down.

Dad.

You're just saying that because you haven't met the one yet.

I assure you there's someone out there,
and she's going to appear before next May.

Honey.

- Did she go potty?
- Yes.

She almost let it out in the bath.

But Mom caught her facial expression in time.

Your mother knows everything.
That's why it's good to listen to her.

Is she asleep now?

Yes, she's fast asleep.

I don't know if we should wash her
since she doesn't like being disturbed.

- The same goes for us when we're sleeping.
- So we're debating.

Let's leave her for 10 more minutes while the water cools.

I talked to Sung-ki about how he has until next May.

- Did he agree to it?
- About what?

- Of course, he has to do it.
- But with who?

Well, he tried to get out of it by saying
he doesn't have a girl, so he'll have to find one.

- Sung-ki, Dad?
- Yes.

He says he doesn't want to get married.

- He doesn't want to be confined.
- Is that what he thinks about marriage?

He's not the only one these days.

There are plenty of men out there over 40
that have negative views toward marriage,

and lots of women nowadays
opt for dating rather than marriage.

Are you saying that Sung-ki is one of those kinds?

You mean he was serious?

I think so.

- When did he tell you?
- About 3 years ago. Maybe more?

It was when you went to the hot springs
with Grandma and Grandpa.

2 years ago.

- We talked over dinner...
- So he...

…won't get married?

He's not interested.

So what did you tell him?

That it's okay since it's not illegal.

How is that okay?

How could you tell him that?

We're not only tied to the laws you studied in school.

It's a natural cycle of life as a human being
to get married and produce a family.

Who does he think he is to go against the laws of nature?

But Dad, whether he gets married or not
is purely up to him to decide.

No one can tell him what to do.

I understand that there are no laws
that prosecute you for not getting married,

but your mother and I are parents, and as parents,

we are entitled to express disapproval
against the irrational choices our kids make.

There's no law like that, Dad.

But the law says that I'm your father.

Don't get so worked up, she's joking.

Come with me.

We need to find out what he's really thinking
and act accordingly.

If his head is in the clouds, we have to bring him
back to Earth, even if we have to smack him.

Don't make a huge deal out of this.

But it is a huge deal, it is!

Mom, I'm going to the gym.

Wait, wait, wait!

Geez, he's so easily startled.

I think Sung-ki is serious, Mom.

It sounded like he meant it.

- Yet he doesn't come home at night?
- But that's different.

Is he gay?

Huh?

No, Mom.

Are you serious about what you said?

I heard you told So-young the same thing a few years ago.

Oh, yes.

"Oh, yes"? "Oh, yes"?

I've thought about living a single life
ever since I was in high school.

I don't like the idea and feel pressured
by the thought of being responsible for a family.

A lot of people tell me at
end-of-the-year reunions not to get married,

that it wears you out,
that I should let myself be free to fly around.

What, like fly around like a bird?

The same people who are telling you that
are all still married!

If that's all true, they should all be divorced by now,

then they can justify their words.

There are a lot who are divorced.

It's comforting to be alone,

and not have to come home to someone
waiting for me at home. It's suffocating.

Do you know how nice it is to come home
and have a warm meal prepared for you?

- Dad.
- People are supposed to live life together.

They're not meant to live on their own,
but with another person to lean on.

See you, Dad.

Hey, where are you going?

I have to go to the gym to meet my trainer.

Fine, you can go, but...

He's hopeless.

Hey, it's me.

- Hi.
- What are you doing?

- We have a situation.
- Why, what's wrong?

Sae-rom's fallen ill.

She's so fragile but was bossed around
all day making kimchi.

I feel terrible.

She's had a fever since dawn
and has been shivering like a poor little dog.

So we went to the E.R.

They said her tonsils are swollen.

She's still got a fever.

I've brought you an herb tonic. Get up, Sae-rom.

Honey, have some tonic. Let's get you up.

I think Ji-ae bossed her around too much.

Stop that.

I have to go. I have to feed her the tonic.

Alright.

I'll talk to you later.

Sir, dropping fruit like that ruins them.
They're supposed to be for sale.

Alright, I'll take them then, and also a box of high-grade apples.

- Yes, sir.
- No, we don't need it.

Just go with it.

But honey…

It's your sister's birthday. We can't bring something so small.

But the kids will bring things, too.

They won't bring anything big.
It's hard enough for them to pay for themselves.

But we bought meat too.

That's only enough to be used in soup. Come on and pay.

Over here.

- How much is it?
- $53.

Why is it so expensive?

It's not at all.

- Can I get it for cheaper?
- No.

- Excuse me?
- We need to make a living.

Geez, it's not like you're poor.

- Do we have to do this every weekend?
- Mom does it every weekend.

No one gets down on the floor to scrub these days.

They vacuum and run a mop all over afterwards.

Or they use those antibacterial steam vacuums.

What's there to clean?
The bathroom's clean, the windows are clean…

And why do we have vinyl on the windows?

It's not like we live in a run-down house
in the woods, with no heater.

It's tacky.

It's because Grandpa built this place
and the insulation is not great.

The vinyl helps to lower power costs.
Grandpa has them on his windows too.

It looks like we have grime on them
and I can't even see the outside.

I understand if Grandpa wants them
on his windows, but it looks tacky here.

It's just for the winter,
and we're conserving energy for the nation.

We're patriots.

We have to rake the leaves, too.

The leaves, too?

Mom's been too tired to do it.

But they're just going to fall again.
Why don't we wait until they stack up?

A house with too many leaves in the yard makes us look lazy.

We used to rake the leaves every weekend last year, too.

Can't Father take care of that,
since he's not doing anything else?

I did it with him last year. Don't worry, I'll do it myself.

Just wipe the things in the living room. I'll be out when I'm done.

I have to disinfect the sink, like at a hospital.

- I love you.
- Hate you!

What's wrong, Dad?

What do you mean?

Just wondering if everything's okay.

You make it sound like we always have problems.

- How's your grandpa?
- He had some porridge.

Did he seem better?
Yes, but he didn't seem well.

Maybe because there were no customers?
I didn't see any cars there.

It'll be fine. They usually come at once.

- Mother wants to go buy groceries.
- Okay.

- Grandpa's had lunch, Mom.
- Alright.

- Does she want to go now?
- I think so.

Then we'll need a car. Go on and get ready.

She wants to go with you alone.

I guess she wants some alone time with you. Go on.

-Mother, do you want to go now?
- I do.

Hey, I need your car. Mother wants to go to the store.

Okay, thanks.

Sae-rom is sick.

She went to the E.R. for her tonsils.

She makes it seem like she made all the kimchi herself.

- Do you need anything?
- Just two packs of low-fat milk.

Honey.

I think Sung-ki meant what he said.

It wasn't that much. The meat and the apples
add up to less than $100.

But $50 for apples is ridiculous!

So you had to sit there pouting and refusing to talk the whole time?

Her kids rarely call to say hello
all year unless there's something wrong.

It's not like our Dae-ki does either with his aunts.

He's better than them.

It's because they're caught up with life.
Don't take it out on your sister for it.

Whatever. It was just too much.

I remember now.

When one of her kids called
when he was laid off, you acted coldly.

Ever since then they were disappointed
and stopped calling altogether.

They decided they didn't need us.

We might as well have bought more meat than buy those apples.

Because we would have saved $30
by buying a $23 portion of meat instead?

Geez, we would have saved a lot.

I just don't understand
how you can be such a scrooge to your own family.

No wonder you only sent a $50 gift card
to my mother on her birthday.

Will you stop bringing that up?

You're so stubborn at times.

When I got my severance pay last year
I wanted to give some to your sister,

and remember what you said?

You threw a fit saying that we're all on our own,

that why would we give them money,
that I was a half-witted goof.

Why would you spend
your hard-earned money on her?

She spends however much she has, and
it all goes to her kids and her husband's drinking.

It's wasted money.

You didn't even say anything
when she had an operation.

She has four children. And I gave her $500 for it.

Forget it, there's no point. You're always the right one.

I would have no regrets in life
if I ever heard you admit that you're wrong.

Being too stingy makes for an impoverished soul.

It's better than being poor when you're retired.

- I think the other one was better.
- Which one?

He's talking about this one, Grandma.

- Why, hello.
- Oh, hello, Professor.

- You must be out grocery shopping.
- Yes, we are.

Why, hello, Professor.

How are you, Mrs. Ahn?
I thought I saw you from over there.

It's nice to run into you out here.

It's nice to see you too.

I'm buying things to make cod soup.

I see. It's a good season for cod.

- Could I get one cod, please?
- Yes, sir, right away.

Could I also get two cods, please?

Yes, Grams.

Excuse me.

Yes, sir?

Don't call her Grams when I call her Mrs. Ahn.

Sorry about that, G… Mrs. Ahn.

But I am a grandma.

By the way, Mrs. Ahn,
I sent you a couple boxes of persimmons.

One of my students from Gurye sends them
every year so I told him to send them to you,

and I had your address on hand,
so he says they should arrive soon.

Oh, you didn't need to…

I always wanted to repay you for all your help.

I don't know what to say…

Are you making octopus soup?

For your father who's low on energy.

I see.

He used to tell me to smile all the time
but he's been so sensitive lately.

I know.

Let's stop by the doctor's.

Okay.

How hard is it to press your own shirts
instead of dry cleaning them?

- It doesn't cost much, Mother.
- It doesn't matter.

Don't you know that it adds up?

Do you think that millionaires eat takeout
because that's all they know how to eat?

They're used to being frugal
and that's the mindset that got them there.

We're not going to be millionaires from saving on dry cleaning.

A dollar for shirt is $7 a week, $28 a month,

$336 in a year. It adds up.

How did you calculate that so quickly?

- How much is it in 10 years?
- Over $3,000.

And since you just took them,
you must have paid extra for express service.

I'm not good at pressing shirts, so I'd rather
save the trouble of hurting my back doing it.

I'll pay for it myself.

Of course, it's not like I would pay.

I know, so you don't need to worry about it.

But I don't want you to waste money either.

I don't consider it a waste since I get to rest.

- What, how did Hyo-joo waste money?
- It's nothing.

- Come on.
- It's nothing.

Come out here, Dae-ki.

The rice is too sticky.

I must have put in too much water. Dae-ki kept telling me to.

Let's make a deal.

I'll press all your shirts from now on
if you give me the money you spend on dry cleaning.

You pay to rest and I make extra money. It's a win-win deal.

Sure, if that's what you want.

I can even press 10 shirts in half an hour.

Okay.

It hurts.

Of course it does. Your tonsils are swollen.

They're practically blocking your throat.

Can you cool the soup with ice? It's too hot for me.

But it's already cool. It's cooled down.

It's hot for me. Get me some ice cream.

That's not good for digestion. Mother is making you pear juice.

Then have some plum water. Here.

It hurts.

- Hee-gyu.
- Yes?

Come and eat.

I will after I feed her.

Leave it and have dinner first. The soup's getting cold.

Don't tell him to leave it. You make me sound like a nuisance.

You're going to be fine. Stop bothering Hee-gyu and let him eat.

I'm alright, I can eat later. Go ahead and eat without me.

But I have to clean up and go exercise!

- How could you say that when I'm sick?
- You're not going to die!

Thank you very much.

- Have a nice day.
- You too.

- What's that?
- They're from Professor Gu.

They're persimmons from one of his students.

We saw him while we were out grocery shopping
and he said they should arrive soon.

Why did he send them?

He says that he wanted to repay us for all the help.

You saw him at the store?

Yes, he was out shopping. Buying cod.

Joon-ki...

Never mind, I'll do it.

Grandpa, dinner's ready.

Sung-ki!

- Joon-ki.
- I'm coming.

- Octopus soup?
- It's to boost your energy.

What am I, an old cow? What's that?

It's cod soup.

Did you go buy cod with Professor Gu?

Oh, that's good. Isn't it tasty?

Yes, it is. The radish is very ripe.

Actually, Mother was out buying octopus,

and Professor Gu came to buy cod,
and we noticed that it was very fresh.

He said he was making cod soup and it made me crave it also,

and so we decided to make cod soup, too.

What's with the long story? I was just joking.

I see.

Didn't you hear me? Are you going deaf?

Eat up before it gets cold.

Did you give some kimchi? To Professor Gu.

I'm waiting for it to ripen for a few days.

Send him some oyster salad, too.

Sung-ki says he'll eat later. He's been sleeping all day.

Put Yoo-jin down.

- I'll do it.
- It's alright.

Hello?

So-young, I'm In-chul's sister.

Can you come out?

My mom wants to talk to your parents herself
and I'm trying to stop her.

So if you could come…

I'll be right there.

Who was that?

Who was it?

It was In-chul's mother.

Wait.

I'm going with you.

Who did you go see?

Are you going back on what we agreed on?

My daughter is now a single mom.

- Don't you know what your son's done?
- Stop it, Mom!

What a shameless girl you are.

What did you say?

Did Sae-rom eat anything yet?

You're awake.

- It's a dollar for a shirt.
- What a strange thing to do.

That's how I wanted to tell them.

Is he like your older brother?

He's 7 years younger than me.

How do you know that? Did you two exchange information?

- You didn't call.
- Were you waiting?

- Stop joking.
- Can't you call me if you're curious?

Why do I have to get married?

Who did you sleep with? Bring her over.

If In-chul's wife's family finds out,
he'll be kicked out of the house.

- What are you going to do?
- Don't worry. Leave it to me.
