(Episode 27)

Secretary Kim.

I heard the whole thing.

I'm sorry.

I apologize.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be angry.

My father told me to say sorry to you.

I apologize one more time.

Chairman Wang did?

He insisted to come, but I came instead.

I'm all right.

I feel fine.

You didn't have to come all the way here.

Secretary Kim.

Why don't we grab a warm cup of tea?

No, let's go have dinner.

Good food will make you feel better.

I'm really okay.

You're not okay at all.

Let's go somewhere to make you feel better.

I'm really okay. You can go.

If I just go, I have to write an apology to Dad.

Do you want that to happen?

A written apology?

Stop joking.

I'm not. I'm serious.

My father, Chairman Wang Jin Gook,

made me sure that I make you feel better.

Do you want to talk to my father?

Don't do that.

Follow me.

Director Wang. What are you doing?

Secretary Kim.

You like running, don't you?

Hold on, Director Wang.

Director Wang. Wait. Director Wang.

Right here. Harder.

Harder. Yes. Harder.

Harder.

Get him. Good job.

I could've done better.

Play one more round to relieve stress.

No, all my stress is gone now.

I don't even have energy left to catch more moles.

Really?

Yes. Thank you for your concern.

I feel better now.

You may go home.

Why am I so hungry?

Oh, I didn't have dinner.

I don't have energy after catching moles.

What if I faint?

Secretary Kim. Buy me something to eat.

Secretary Kim. My grandma treats you well and...

it looks like you think you're someone special.

"Da Ya"?

Am I your friend?

Do you think we're on the same level?

How could she treat a person like that?

Do Ran must be hurt.

(Kim Do Ran)

Director Wang.

What's wrong?

I should write a journal when I go home tonight.

A journal?

I had fun catching moles with Do Ran today.

Then we had noodles at a cart bar.

It looks like Do Ran loves noodles.

Her noodles disappeared after a few slurps.

Noodles don't taste good if you eat only a little.

You should eat at least this much.

Yet, Do Ran still looked...

cute and adorable.

She looked like a baby rabbit.

Stop the nonsense and eat the noodles? Okay.

Yes, Mr. Kang.

Are you okay, Secretary Kim?

I called because I was worried about you.

I'm okay. I'm really okay.

I'm sorry I put you in trouble.

No, why would I be in trouble?

Don't worry about me.

Secretary Kim.

Don't let this bring you down.

Stay confident and strong like you are now.

Then no one will be rude to you.

Yes.

I'll keep that in mind, Mr. Kang.

Was it Mr. Kang?

Yes. He must've been worried about me.

It seems he thinks about you a lot.

Really?

Yes.

I can't even like you because I'm scared of him.

If I mistreat you in any way,

he wouldn't let me get away with it.

No way.

We're here already.

Director Wang. Thank you for the day.

I know you're here to make me feel better.

After whacking some moles and some warm soup,

I feel much better thanks to you.

Thank you very much.

I hope...

you forget about what happened today.

I know it won't be easy.

My whole family appreciates your help.

No one thinks of you that way.

Director Wang. I would never neglect Madam Park.

You wouldn't have to worry about that.

Then, bye.

That's not what I meant.

I thought we had a progress after dinner.

Secretary Kim.

Goodnight.

Did she just smile?

She did.

She even waved her hand.

Did you call me, Ms. Oh?

Whose driver are you, Mr. Kang?

Secretary Kim's? Is she the one who pays you?

What do you mean, Ms. Oh?

I'm bringing this up because it seems...

you're mistaken a big time.

I know you two are close,

but why would you get involved...

and cause this whole thing?

I thought Ms. Jang should show her some respect...

as she is important to Madam Park.

Oh, my. Mr. Kang.

I know it was my daughter's fault,

but you shouldn't get involved.

I'm the one to scold her if I have to.

I'm sorry.

From now on, know better when to get involved.

Keep your mouth and ears closed.

Just remember what your job is, okay?

Yes, I will remember that.

You may leave.

I'm sorry.

Mom, why are you so harsh on him?

As far as I know,

he hasn't done anything wrong.

You're hurting his feelings for nothing.

Those subordinates will be disobedient later...

if you're too easy on them.

You have to make clear...

what's not right.

Mom, this isn't the case.

Even in my eyes, Da Ya is at fault.

- What? - Grandma always said...

to be fair for your subordinates to obey you.

I'm going upstairs.

Goodness.

What's wrong with him too?

Goodness, seriously.

Come to think,

Do Ran has smiled at me so many times today.

Has she finally started to realize my charms?

Da Ya,

where did you learn such a behavior?

I'm so disappointed in you.

Get out.

What if Father really hates me?

Goodness.

Da Ya, you've got to eat something.

You haven't had anything since dinner yesterday.

No, I'll eat at home.

I have to get home before Father goes to work.

Da Ya.

I've met your mother-in-law...

and talked about your moving out.

- What? - Discuss with Yi Ryook...

and move to a new house.

The apartment in Cheongdam is empty now.

It just needs to be repaired.

Wait only for a week.

I've never said I'd move out.

I won't move out even if I die.

You cry and struggle so much like this,

so why don't you want to move out?

Have you forgotten about what I said?

It's my dream to succeed my mother-in-law...

and become the madam of Bom and Food.

Da Ya.

If I move out like this, what will it make me look?

Mom, I'll stay there even if it's tough.

I'll be adored.

So don't ever talk about that again.

Goodness, Da Ya.

Goodness, what should I do with her?

Gosh.

Mother, I'm home.

Oh, hey.

I'm glad you're here. Welcome.

Where's Yi Ryook?

I think he's still sleeping.

I haven't said anything to him yet...

because it'll only cause a ruckus.

You know what I mean, right?

Yes.

I told him that you went to your house...

because something happened to your aunt.

He wasn't suspicious, was he?

I talked it over with him on the phone last night.

I see. Good job.

There's nothing good about him finding it out.

Where is Father? Has he gone to work?

No, not yet.

He's in the study. You want to try going in?

Yes, I think I should.

Okay, that's a good idea.

Go in and greet him.

Okay.

Father, it was thoughtless of me.

I'm sorry for causing trouble in the house.

You know...

how to admit to your mistake honestly.

That's my daughter-in-law.

I'll be careful not to make it happen again.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, I've scolded you...

because I adore you like my real child.

I wouldn't have done it if you had been a stranger.

I'm sorry for scolding you.

Don't keep it to heart.

Okay, Father. Thank you.

And I've heard this from your mother-in-law.

I also think...

it's better for you to move out.

It's a little hectic with my mother being sick,

so you should move out with Yi Ryook.

No, Father.

I'm happier to live with...

you, Grandma, and Mother here.

Is that right?

Moving out isn't what I want.

Whether you move out or live here,

don't feel too burdened about us...

and make yourself comfortable.

Okay, Father.

I'll go make delicious vegetable juice for you.

Da Ya.

Yes?

I'd like you...

to go apologize to Secretary Kim.

What?

She comes here day and night...

to help your sick grandmother-in-law.

We should be grateful to her.

No one will be willing to do that kind of stuff.

She isn't someone...

hired for chores and errands.

So...

I want you to apologize and make up with her.

That way, Secretary Kim will come take care of...

your grandmother-in-law with a good heart.

What is he talking about? Apologize?

She's already upset, so why does he want her...

to apologize instead of appeasing her?

Doesn't he care one bit about her pride...

even though we need Secretary Kim?

Goodness.

- Gosh. - Goodness gracious.

What are you doing here?

Are you listening into the chairman right now?

Of course not.

He asked me for some green tea a while ago.

Mother.

Well, Da Ya.

Let's talk together first.

Come here.

Mother...

Goodness, what is going on?

Mr. Chairman.

Don't cry, Da Ya.

It breaks my heart.

Mother, I'm sorry.

Da Ya, you...

don't have to go see Secretary Kim.

Don't apologize if you don't want to.

You don't have to.

But Father wants me to.

So how can I not?

I'll defend you.

I'll argue with him if I must to defend you,

so you don't have to apologize to her.

No, please don't do that.

It'll only put you in trouble,

and Father will be disappointed in me again.

Don't do that.

Da Ya.

Mother.

I was raised without a dad.

I was so happy...

to be adored by Father after getting married.

So I want to keep being adored...

by Father in the future too.

Da Ya.

Mother, I'll go upstairs.

Da Ya.

Gosh, my husband cares only about his mom.

He doesn't give a thing about Da Ya's pride.

This is disappointing, seriously.

Poor Da Ya.

When did you come?

Just now.

What about your aunt?

She's fine now.

Let's sleep a little more, Da Ya.

Come here.

Hello.

Why did you want to see me?

I...

came here to apologize.

Apologize?

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I apologize.

You don't have to.

Making coffee wasn't a big deal,

but I don't know why it turned out this way.

Anyway,

I apologized to you.

- Pardon? - I came and apologized.

I want you to tell my father-in-law that...

clearly and properly.

Okay, I will.

That's all then.

I'll go first.

What was that?

Did the chairman tell her to apologize?

Gosh, it suits you so well.

It makes your face look brighter.

Is it comfortable?

Of course. I'm wearing the same thing.

It's so easy to move around in.

It's so comfortable.

It really is. I'll take it.

Okay then. Thank you.

Take this as well.

What's this?

We're handing out gifts to celebrate our 30th.

Only to those who purchase from our new line.

Really?

You got new clothes and a gift. You got lucky.

I did.

- Thank you. - Have a nice day.

Come again.

Goodbye.

Welcome. Oh.

Hello, Ms. Na.

Is everything okay?

Of course.

It's gotten cold. Would you like some tea?

- I'd like that. - Okay.

She's quick-witted and hard-working.

She's not too bad.

Mom.

Go Rae, what are you doing here?

Your wallet.

- You forgot it again. - Silly me.

- Was it on the table? - Yes.

- Oh dear. - Do we have a customer?

Is it not a customer?

He's my son.

Go Rae, she's a new employee.

Oh, hello.

Take good care of my mom for me.

Yes.

You bet I will.

I have to go.

Okay. Take care. See you.

He's a dentist.

He owns Gorae Dental Clinic.

He has his own dental clinic?

He's so young.

He's young but he's good.

Go to him if your teeth need looking at.

Of course, I'll go to him.

Congratulations to those who won something...

in the New Product Idea Competition.

You did so well.

The winners will work in groups...

with staff from the Planning Team...

to develop recipes until the release.

We asked your teams for cooperation,

so don't worry,

and focus on developing new recipes.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Shall we decide who will work with whom?

Yes, that was already done by department.

It wasn't planned but us three are a group.

I'm very pleased to be in your group.

I'm pleased to work with you and Ms. Kim.

Secretary Kim, you don't look too happy.

Are you upset we're a team?

No, sir.

There's no preference when it's about work.

What should we do next?

How could we not like to work with you?

One word from you and everything works out.

No one will dare oppose us.

That's not true.

We can't release anything if we don't have a recipe.

Winning the competition isn't a guarantee.

So don't rely on me...

and work on finding the best recipe.

Yes, sir.

Let's start by visiting famous bulgogi places.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Let's work hard...

and release a great bulgogi porridge.

1, 2, 3.

- Good luck. - Good luck.

Mr. Kang, have some warm and sweet coffee.

Thank you.

Mr. Kang.

Do you know where Ms. Jang went?

Where did she go?

To see Secretary Kim.

What? Secretary Kim? Why?

You're so startled. She didn't go to fight.

The chairman scolded her and told her to apologize.

That's where she went.

I see.

Chairman Wang and Madam Park...

are so fair and never abuse their staff.

That's why their staff stay for a long time.

Now Secretary Kim can come whenever she wants to.

Of course.

The chairman's so nice to her.

Welcome back, Ms. Jang.

She's upset about being forced to apologize.

She has no manners.

Did you see her?

Everything went well?

Yes. I apologized then left right away.

Okay. Did you cry?

- No. - Good for you.

My husband upset you but don't cry over it.

Why would you cry because of Ms. Kim?

Pride is something only your equal can hurt,

so yours is still intact.

Yes, Mother.

But still, don't tell your mom.

She'll bite her tongue and pass out if she knew.

Don't worry about that.

Okay.

Hold out your hands, Da Ya.

Mother.

This necklace is...

Yes.

Madam Park gave it to Ms. Kim when she lapsed.

I was going to give it to you or Dae Ryook's wife,

but who knows whom Dae Ryook will marry?

But still,

this is Grandma's.

I told you.

She doesn't know it's gone or that she gave it away.

But still.

Why should I keep what'll become yours?

The reason I'm giving it to you...

is because I accept you as my daughter-in-law.

Mother.

Let me put it on you.

Let's see.

It's beautiful. You look so elegant.

It suits you so well.

Mother, isn't this too extravagant for me?

No, not at all.

It looks so lovely.

Gosh, remember that...

you can't ever lose that. It's worth a house.

- Really? - Yes.

Not many women in Korea have such a necklace.

Thanks for giving me something so precious.

Thanks so much.

You're welcome. Don't keep it hidden.

Wear it every day.

Yes, Mother.

I'm going to the department store,

would you like to join me?

Let's buy an outfit and bag...

that suits the necklace.

Today might be difficult. I'm meeting friends.

Let's go shopping together another day.

Okay then.

Chat and catch up with your friends,

eat some nice food...

and forget about everything that upset you.

Yes, Mother.

My goodness.

That's so pretty.

I've never seen such a big diamond necklace before.

Look at it sparkle.

My mother said that...

not many women in Korea...

have a necklace like this.

Good for you.

I'm so jealous.

Don't you feel worried or scared of wearing it?

What if you lose it?

It's worth as much as a house,

so I was going to keep it in the closet,

but my mother said I shouldn't waste it.

She told me to wear it every day.

While I look pretty in it.

That's so cool of your mother-in-law.

She is so cool.

It sparkles.

- Director Wang. - Do Ran.

What are you doing here?

Why would I be sitting at the bus stop?

I'm waiting for the bus.

I commute by subway and bus these days.

I save money and my legs get stronger.

I think it's good in many ways.

Is that so?

Hello, Young Sik.

Is everyone waiting?

I'll be right there. I'm sorry.

You can start without me.

Okay.

Do Ran, I'm sorry.

I don't think I can go home with you tonight.

I forgot that I made plans with my friends.

Why would you be sorry?

It's okay. You should go.

I'll wait and watch you take the bus though.

This is my bus.

You should go.

What was that?

What should I have...

for a respectable dinner tonight?

We have fresh long-legged octopuses.

A pack of them only costs five dollars.

Whoever gets here first will get to buy it.

It's first come, first served.

- Don't push me. - Give me that.

Gosh, move over a little bit.

This is mine.

I picked it up first. What are you talking about?

Gosh, excuse me.

I picked this first.

Look. It's in my hand now.

So this is mine.

My goodness.

She's being ridiculous.

Where did I see her?

Do Ran must be pretty now.

I guess she's all grown-up now.

Who is she?

Are you sure you're not him?

I think you're the one who took the baby.

That's right. It's her.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Why are you doing this to me?

I picked up this octopus first.

No, that's not it.

You know Dong Chul, right?

Kim Dong Chul.

- Who? - Do you know Dong Chul?

You met him in front of a subway station before.

You talked something...

about Do Ran and a baby to my husband.

- Do Ran? - Yes.

You said my husband took a baby.

You said things like that to my husband that day.

I think you have the wrong person.

I'm not him. You got the wrong person.

Let's go.

She pretended not to know me back then.

I'm sure you said something about Do Ran.

My husband told me...

Do Ran's parents are dead.

Do you know anything about Do Ran's relatives?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I think you have the wrong person.

What?

That's not her?

I wish I could find Do Ran's relatives.

All right. She abandoned her own parents.

Why would she want to find her relatives?

Gosh, what's wrong with my life?

That's right. It's her.

I think I saw her at the subway station.

Why would she ask me about Do Ran's relatives?

My gosh, is she the woman...

who raised Do Ran?

She can ask her husband about it though.

Why would she ask me that?

I don't want Do Ran...

to know who her dad is...

for the rest of her life.

Ma'am, I'm so sorry,

but please forget all about...

Do Ran and me.

All right.

I should forget about it.

Whether she raised Do Ran or not,

it's none of my business.

I will...

stay out of this. I don't know anything.

Are you serious?

Is that why you paid me the money back?

Yes. I don't owe you anything now.

All right. I'm so proud of you, Do Ran.

I think your dad is taking care of you up above.

You won the prize in the contest...

and paid off your debts.

Right. I think so too.

Anyway, Do Ran,

you've worked really hard for this so far.

I haven't seen anyone who works so hard like you.

Hey, what are you talking about?

You also work hard. You work part-time.

And you lent me your hard-earned money.

Thank you so much.

Stop talking about it. People would think...

I lent you like 50,000 dollars.

It means more than 50,000 dollars,

I mean, more than 500,000 dollars to me.

- I will never forget it. - Okay. All right.

Is someone here?

Grandma, Do Ran is here.

What? Do Ran?

- Hello, ma'am. - Hi, Do Ran.

Even hearing her name...

makes my knees knock together.

Grandma.

Do Ran got you a little something.

What? My gosh.

It's nothing.

I bought long underwear for you.

It will keep you warm in winter.

Thank you for your thoughtful gift.

Let's have dinner together.

I'll cook stir-fried octopus for you.

Stir-fried octopus? That sounds great.

Thank you.
