–Was it you? –What?

Did you hit them?

Yeah. So?

Apologize when I'm asking nicely.

You're funny. You don't even have a dad.

Hey!

Get off! Get off! Now!

Get off! I said get off!

Grandpa, are you mad?

I didn't mean to do that,

but he mocked me saying I don't have a dad.

You hungry?

(Bogwang Chinese Restaurant)

Grandpa, is today a special day?

No.

Eat up.

People saw my family...

...as incomplete.

With an incomplete number of members.

Be that as it may...

...I loved my family.

So I was okay with it.

But...

Now...

...I'm all alone in this world.

Without any family.

(Episode 11 – Good Family, Bad Family, Weird Family)

Bo–a.

I took care of everything I could.

But I don't know...

...how to let others know about the funeral.

Thank you.

I'll take care of it.

(Search – Name, Number, Email, 25 Contacts)

(Compose Message)

Bo–a.

Yes, Mr. Park?

Can you come here for a minute?

I called your friends already.

Hey, guys.

How could this happen so suddenly?

Bo–a, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

No, you're not.

You should've called us first...

...when this happened, you brat.

Cry if you need to.

You're allowed.

We're here now.

(Funeral Home)

Enjoy.

Bo–a must be in shock.

She is.

Mr. Park?

Why are you here as if you're the chief mourner?

–Well... –Be quiet and eat.

It's all over once you leave this world.

Be good to your loved ones while you can.

I feel sorry for Bo–a.

She has no family left to speak of.

She has Gong–chul.

I doubt he's still alive and well.

He probably died in some other country or else something happened to him.

You think?

–Here you go. –Sheesh.

Goodness.

How else could he have never...

...called once?

(The Late Seo Myung–dong Chief Mourner – Seo Bo–a)

If he had any sort of a conscience,

he would've come to see his own daughter.

I'm sorry...

...but how do you know my grandpa?

I don't think we've ever met.

So you're Bo–a.

Do you know me?

Of course.

Long time no see, my darling daughter.

Why are you in a suit?

Bo–a's grandfather passed away.

Want to come with me?

That's okay.

It'd be weird if I went.

What's up?

You said you have something to say?

Actually...

–...you know your mom's fried chicken joint? –Yeah?

It's going to be on TV soon.

Not my show but a different one.

I think Choi–go should know.

She's going to be on TV?

She's really serious about this.

Why didn't you tell him yourself?

I don't want to see him anymore.

What's the point when he won't like me back?

I see.

And...

...I have something else to say.

We should stop meeting up too.

I don't think we should hang out...

...like we're friends anymore.

If this is about the other night,

that was my mistake.

–I won't do it again. –That wasn't a mistake.

You know it wasn't.

I want to live life true to my emotions.

I've always been that way.

But be that as it may...

...you and I can't be together.

Let's go.

It was brief...

...but thank you.

I'm sorry.

We would've been good friends.

I know.

Bye.

Do you drink?

A little.

When did we last see each other?

I don't remember.

Yeah, you were really young. I understand.

Do you know Mom passed away?

I heard.

Why didn't you come to her funeral?

I heard too late that she had died.

I felt uncomfortable going.

Though that's no excuse for not going.

Seo Gong–chul.

Do you remember me?

Oh! Yes, long time no see.

Why haven't you come by at all?

Myung–dong would...

...never talk about you.

We all thought you had died.

I'm an awful son. I'm ashamed to face you.

You say this now

but how could you abandon your own dad and child?

I was really immature back then.

Oh, let me pour you a drink.

It's been so long. I'll pour you a drink.

Pour away.

Okay.

[K-Plus Asia ver.] The Best Chicken E11 Ripped & Synced by ordinaryguy92

Hey, you're just getting home?

Why'd you drink so much?

Just because.

Mom?

–Were you just humming out of joy? –What?

Me? No.

–What are you doing? –What else?

I'm bookkeeping.

Oh yeah. Jun–hyuk?

I'll give you some allowance. Come here.

–What? –Come here.

Here. Take it.

Spend it.

–Mom. –Yeah?

Are you going to be on TV?

How'd you know?

Don't take it that far.

Was it through a contact at a station?

Or did you pay them?

How can you say that?

The word spread that my restaurant had great food.

They begged me to come on TV,

so I said I would.

What?

Look. Come here.

Look at this.

See?

Oh my. This review just came up.

(The chicken is big and the fried chicken deliciously crunchy)

(The chicken seems marinated and has a cleaner taste than elsewhere)

You look really happy.

What? I'm forcing myself to do this.

This young lady writes beautifully.

Look.

She wrote that the food was delicious.

I have big news.

Mom's enjoying running the restaurant.

Usually, when she came home from work...

...she was so tired. But...

(But...)

I need to stop drinking.

(So–dam)

I really need to quit.

It may sound like an excuse...

...but I wasn't ready to be a dad back then.

That's why I just ran away.

I was scared.

It sounds like an excuse.

Does it?

I'm sorry.

I'm sure there were moments in your life...

...when you needed me around.

No, not really.

I had Mom and Grandpa.

I never once felt a void...

...in my family.

I see.

I'm very indebted to your mom...

...and grandpa.

Get some rest.

I'll make sure to keep the incense burning.

You should get some rest.

You must be tired.

I can't sleep.

Thank you.

If I didn't have you and my friends...

...this would've been so much harder.

I'm not ready. What will I do?

My grandpa said I should live life properly.

But I don't know what that means.

Me neither.

I'm just pretending to be an adult.

I bet that's how everyone is.

You feel that way too?

Of course.

I'm still battling my mom about my path.

It's gotten rather out of hand.

I thought my dad...

...would be a monster with a horn on his head.

I wondered...

...how else he never would've come home.

I couldn't understand it.

But now that I've met him...

...he's an ordinary, rational man.

I don't know what he's like at all.

I don't know what I'm supposed to say

to him right now, either.

I don't know whether to smile or yell.

I wish I knew what to say to cheer you up...

...but no matter what I say,

I don't think it would comfort you.

I don't know what to say.

But...

...as you ponder that,

I promise to stay by your side.

In the movies, they always...

...say something really amazing.

Should I try to say something then?

No thanks.

Just stay with me.

This feels consoling.

Get some sleep.

I told you, I can't sleep.

Brat.

I guess it's fine as long as you're happy.

That's all he gave? Sheesh.

What? 20,000 won.

Sheesh.

This isn't fun at all.

I'm saying this because I'm a worrywart.

Let me get this off my chest.

Don't take offense and hear me out, okay?

Okay.

You didn't come here for money, did you?

What?

Mr. Hwang, I do have a conscience, you know.

Is that right?

That's good to hear.

I'm really relieved to hear you say that.

Nothing was left in your name.

What?

Myung–dong left a will...

...saying he'd leave Bo–a everything.

He left a will?

So...

...don't get greedy. It'll be in vain.

Okay?

He's a pain even when he's dead.

Sheesh.

(The Late Seo Myung–dong Son: Seo Gong–chul, Granddaughter: Seo Bo–a)

(Spirit of father without government rank attend this place)

(Showered with Good Chicken)

(We are closed due to private matters. We are sorry.)

Wash up and get some sleep.

You've had a really tough time.

You wash up first.

I'm so tired.

I'll wash up after you're done.

Okay.

Bo–a, wash up and sleep in the bedroom.

Are you going to sleep like that forever?

Did you forget the promise you made me?

You said you'd live life properly.

Right?

Grandpa!

Grandpa...

–Bo–a. –Yes?

When did you wake up?

Is that...

Oh.

This was really expensive, huh?

It works really well.

–Thank you. –What are you drawing?

–Is it going all right? –I suppose.

But it's been a while, so I'm out of practice.

I was just warming up.

Keep working on it.

I'll let you know when the meal's ready.

Bo–a, it's not ready yet.

Thank you.

–It's burning! –Oh no!

Darn it.

–Mr. Park? –Yes?

Will you adjust my work hours?

–Your work hours? –Yes.

I want to start drawing webtoons again.

Since we get less customers at lunch,

I'd like to work the evenings.

–Would that be all right? –Of course.

Anything else?

If there's any other way I can help,

just tell me.

Okay.

Oh yeah. When is your mom's restaurant

going to be on TV?

Shouldn't we prepare for it too?

I spoke to the chef about it...

...and we're going to add an item to the menu.

An item that stands out.

Bo–a.

Don't give her our recipe this time, okay?

Mr. Park!

–I'll do it. –You will?

Try some.

It's the new menu item Choi–go and I came up with.

I'll try it first.

Wow. It's amazing.

This is no joke.

It's good.

What? It's not the taste you were hoping?

It's not that. It's good.

The seafood soy sauce goes well with the fried chicken.

It's unique in that there's a spicy kick afterward.

But?

You don't look so happy.

But I don't think

we can outdo my mom just with

delicious fried chicken alone.

A good recipe's important,

but I'd like to do something to make

–the customers curious. –Curious?

Yes, I think one way would be to add

special toppings.

Welcome.

Wow, the sauna's totally changed.

Wow, this is innovative.

Hello.

Oh, so this is your place.

We met at the funeral.

I'm Seo Gong–chul.

I'm Park Choi–go.

Should I get Bo–a for you?

No, I'm not here to see her.

–Then? –As long as I'm here,

can I try your fried chicken?

One order please.

Wow. This is...

Enjoy.

Mr. Park?

Will you sit down?

Pardon?

Sit down so we can talk.

Wow, this is good. Because you're all

so young, I wasn't expecting much.

This is delicious.

How's business going? Well?

Yes.

That's good.

Well...

before coming here,

I stopped by a few real estate offices.

But man!

My dad rented this place out for too cheap.

–What? –The rent should be reasonable,

and I'm sure you looked into it before opening this place.

–What do you mean? –I'll cut to the chase.

Let's draft a new lease contract.

I'm sorry, but I have a lot of time before my contract is up.

I know.

And there's the five–year lease protection clause too.

But the thing is,

law or not, it's about the people.

But this is highway robbery.

A young man like you must know what I mean.

This is beyond cheap.

That's true, but Mr. Seo promised––

The landlord needs to put food on the table too! This is wrong!

If you don't pay a reasonable rent,

I only have one option.

Get off my property.

What?

Bo–a's drawing webtoons?

Seriously?

Wow, that's awesome.

I thought Bo–a would be so out of it

that she'd hide out for two weeks.

But she's back to drawing webtoons?

I was really worried about her

because her dad showed up out of the blue.

–That's great news. –We just talked on the phone,

and she's in good spirits.

I don't think we have to worry.

What happened with her dad after the funeral?

Did he disappear again?

I think he's living at his father's place.

Really? So he's moving in for good?

I don't know. I doubt it.

My grandpa said

he's never been the type to stick around.

But I heard a long time ago

that he's done some time in prison.

I thought he was some frightening man.

Right? I heard...

...that he was a con artist on the run.

But he was a total gentleman.

And refined.

You know how rumors are.

Bo–a can't come because she's drawing,

so let's order some food for ourselves.

–What should we eat? –Oh.

I have a packed lunch. Order for yourselves.

Packed lunch?

That's not like you.

Did you really pack that?

Why didn't you pack our lunch?

I didn't pack this myself.

The chef drops it off on his way to work.

–William? –It's Andrew.

Andrew Kang.

–No, it's William. –What?

–No, it's not. –Anyway,

who cares if it's William or Andrew?

Why is he packing you lunch?

Oh?

Hello.

–What's this? –Well.

A packed lunch.

I had leftovers after packing mine.

You can either eat it or toss it.

Thank you.

The pasta you made us before was amazing.

Jun–hyuk said I should cook.

I forced myself to do it.

I made too much though.

Oh, I see.

It must be my lucky day.

That seems fishy.

How is that fishy?

Yeah, he just brought you lunch once.

I guess that could happen.

Actually, it's been more than once.

It's been a week maybe?

–Every day for a week? –Yeah.

The food is amazing,

but he makes too much food, I think.

–That's good for me, though. –How suspicious.

What's wrong with you?

I found him a place to rent

and helped him renovate,

so he's grateful, that's all.

Think about it.

Maybe William has a thing for you.

–What? –You know,

you're real sharp at everything else,

but a complete fool about men.

He's right.

–You're a dummy when it comes to love. –Dummy?

No, I'm not!

Dummy!

No, I'm not.

(Showered with Good Chicken)

What? Why are you all so down?

Bo–a.

Mr. Park, is something wrong?

What?

That's ridiculous.

My dad came and said that?

Are we really being kicked out?

No, you're not.

My grandpa...

...left this building in my name.

My dad has no rights to it.

So no matter what my dad says...

...don't worry about it.

–Bo–a. –You knew that, Mr. Park.

Why would you let him say that?

I did...

...tell your father.

He said despite the will...

...he said he had legal rights...

...to his father's property.

That's what he said.

What?

I looked into it...

...and your dad's right.

Then, Mr. Seo's will has no power?

Not entirely.

Because it does have some power,

Bo–a can stake claim to half the assets.

What do you mean?

Legally,

your dad inherits your grandpa's wealth.

But he left everything in your name,

so you have rights to it too.

Why is it so complicated?

To cut to the chase,

whatever your grandpa said in the will,

your dad may be able to take half

of the inheritance,

legally speaking.

So that means––

This building...

...will be in both your name and your dad's.

You each own half of it.

What happens now?

My dad can

kick Mr. Park out?

Don't worry about that. He can't do that.

I told you. You own half the building.

Neither you nor your dad can take an action alone.

Whatever it is, he needs your consent.

You got me?

If you keep your wits about you,

you can protect

the fried chicken joint...

...and this building he left you.

I wish you didn't...

...have to see all this.

Bo–a.

I was happy my dad came...

...although it was brief.

I thought perhaps I wouldn't be

alone after all.

But my dad...

...must've come to the funeral for the money.

Yeah.

I'm sure that was why.

Otherwise, he would've come sooner...

...when my family needed my dad.

Why am I being such a fool?

(Wine bar owner)

Hello.

I'm surprised to hear from you.

If you're not busy, stop by.

–What? –Sheesh.

Your boyfriend's been waiting here for you.

–Boyfriend? –You know.

You two must've had a quarrel.

He's drinking all alone.

I feel sorry for him.

If it's nothing big, forgive him.

He's not my boyfriend.

What? He's not?

No, but sir?

Is he drinking on an empty stomach again?

I didn't order this.

You've been drinking on an empty stomach.

–It's on the house. –Oh.

(New Contact, Update Original Contact, ...5–136)

Hello?

It's me.

What? Who?

Oh, it's you, Bo–a.

I've been meaning to see you.

When are you free?

I'm calling you to tell you something.

I'll just say this and hang up.

I heard you came to the restaurant today.

You said to pay a higher rent or get out.

Bo–a, I'll take care of this.

You're too young for this.

We have to raise the rent so that we get the right price for the building.

–That's what's best for you too. –No, it's not.

I won't consent to raising the rent.

I don't want to have them move out, either.

–Bo–a. –I don't know what you're thinking,

but I won't let you walk all over me.

Not in the least bit.

Grandpa raised me to be better than that.

I don't know what Choi–go told you...

...but we're family.

You have to have my back, not his.

To me, family is...

...people who are around when I need them.

Not you who's neglected our family all my life.

–Bo–a. –I'm going to protect...

...the restaurant and this building Grandpa left me.

Don't get any ideas.

I'm hanging up.

(Seonhwa Sauna)

Bo–a! Open this door!

Bo–a!

Mi–na, what's wrong?

Bo–a.

I have bad news.

What? What do you mean?

I'm not referring to some place far.

You know that area with the new district office?

How is it now?

It's flourished.

But what about our street?

How much longer must we live in dilapidation?

I've never seen a street

this worn down in Seoul.

–Right? –He's right.

Right.

These are mixed–use buildings.

Our street...

...will be lined with buildings like these.

This is a shopping mall.

Say, we get a big mall on the first floor.

You know what happens?

At minimum,

the land price will double.

The price will double while you do nothing.

Yet your land will be worth two times more.

So why wouldn't you do this?

There's no reason for you not to.

Don't you agree?

Right, sir?

What?

You said my dad couldn't do anything,

because I own half.

You said he can't do anything without my consent.

This is different.

Even without your consent,

–if he gets the town people's consent–– –Then what?

They'll tear down this whole street...

...and build apartments here.

What about my place and our restaurant?

They'll be gone...

...without a trace.

(The Best Chicken)

I'll take down...

...that whole union. You'll see.

If you write your name, put your seal on it and give it to me,

I'll start a union.

I'm protecting what's important to me.

A real adult must

break free from her past.

What if I can't do it?

You're doing fine.

That's it! Must–eat restaurants pop up in a quiet town.

Then, the land prices go up.

Let's aim for that on our street.
