Hundred Year Inheritance

[Episode 29]

I'm sorry.

I was wrong.

Please forgive me.

I hated you being around Seyoon.

I was so desperate to pull you away from him,

that it made me so blind.

The next thing I knew,

I made an irrepairable mistake.

Mistake?

I really hate myself for being like this.

I feel so ashamed.

I've done so wrong that I can't even ask you for forgiveness.

I'm sorry.

Juri.

I feel too ashamed to see you.

Let's talk later.

I'm sorry, I was thoughtless...

and I judged based on what I saw.

When I knew your situation and your personality so well,

I still misjudged you.

I'm sorry I've hurt you so much.

You have my apology.

I'm glad now that the truth came out.

You could've claimed your innocence.

Why did you take that like a fool?

I'm no stranger to such adversity.

Maybe I've gotten used to it.

I didn't want to make excuses.

And I was tuckered out.

Can I ask you a favor?

Sure.

I hope situations like this won't be repeated.

You know, no more misunderstanding about us.

Your engagement is coming up.

Rumors will put you in an awkward position.

What do you mean?

The more we get involved, the more we'll be misunderstood.

Let's keep the distance.

I'll be more careful not to bring you trouble.

Chaewon.

Thank you for clearing me of the false charge.

Mom!

Juri, why are you crying?

Why are you crying?

What should I do now?

What happened? Tell me.

Seyoon saw the worst in me.

He'll get sick of me and dump me.

Tell me what happened so that I can take measures.

Stop crying and tell me.

Come on, just tell me.

What is it? What's the matter?

I did a stupid thing.

An irreparable error.

How are you, Mrs. Yi?

Oh, hi. What brings you here?

I have something to tell you urgently. Is Mr. Yi in?

No. His friend took him out for a walk.

What's wrong with you? Did you cry?

I told her off before we came.

Why?

Juri, tell her the truth and seek her forgiveness.

What made you this upset?

What is it? What's the matter?

Please forgive me.

I don't know why I did that.

Why are you sitting on your knees?

What will she think of you if she hears about it?

She'll think you're just a fatherless girl.

You disgraced your deceased father!

What made you so furious?

Your knees might hurt. Stand up.

So what's the matter?

I'm so frustrated.

I thought I raised my children well, but I was mistaken.

Please calm down and tell me what troubles you.

You know Chaewon Minn, my ex daughter-in-law.

Yes, I do.

I think she disturbed Juri a lot at work.

And this naive girl foolishly caused a lot of trouble.

Please help yourself.

Okay. Thanks.

Help yourself.

You can put your meal ticket in that box and get your meal.

I have company. Can I sit there and wait?

Of course.

What?

I'm calling to ask you out for lunch.

I'm busy.

Come on. I'm with someone you cherish.

Someone I cherish?

I'm at Juri's company.

You went to see Juri?

Yes.

To have lunch with her. But she's not in her office.

So I came to her company cafeteria.

Then eat alone.

Cafeteria?

Yes.

Guess who I met here.

I met your...

unforgettable ex-wife.

What the--?

What's the menu?

It's hot spicy beef stew.

Too bad.

It's my least favorite food.

You remember me, don't you?

Yes.

We ran into each other on your wedding day.

You have a good memory.

You must've had a close look at Cholgyu's new wife.

How was my first impression?

If you're not gonna eat, please make way for them.

Oh, sorry.

Enjoy the meal.

Does my husband like hot spicy beef stew?

Excuse me?

I haven't figured out his taste in food.

Did you sometimes cook that stew for him?

Excuse me. I'm busy.

Please enjoy the meal.

Ms. Minn!

Yes?

How quick.

Oh. Guess you couldn't wait to see her.

Come out. Let's talk outside.

I didn't eat yet.

Eat somewhere else. Stop being mean.

Come out. I'll buy you lunch.

This will never happen again. I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

I'm here only for lunch.

Stop.

Come out. Let's talk outside.

It hurts. Let go and talk!

We'll see again soon.

I'm sorry.

- Let go of me! - Come!

Are you crazy? How dare you come here?

Why can't I come here?

What did you tell her?

Nothing special.

Are you telling me to believe you?

How did you threat her?

Threat?

Since I shunned you, you came to my wife and...

My wife?

You don't give a damn about me, do you?

All you care about is her, huh?

If you love her that much, why did you divorce her?

Hey!

She's a poor soul. Her life is tough enough, okay?

How pathetic.

Enough is enough.

And this is my second warning.

Warning?

If you come here to see her again, you'll be sorry.

I might just go insane!

I won't give you a ride.

Bastard.

The more we get involved, the more we'll be misunderstood.

Let's keep the distance.

What's wrong with him?

Is he unwell?

Father. You've been out of town?

Yes, I had business in Seoul.

You don't look well. Are you okay?

I was carsick. I'm okay.

Are you sure?

Of course.

Seems you shopped for groceries.

Yes. Prices are too high.

If you want something to eat, please let me know.

I'll make it for you.

Let's have some cold drinks.

I'm thirsty and I want to talk with you.

You have something to tell me?

Yes.

Okay. Let's go.

Here you are. Please enjoy it.

I know it wasn't an easy decision for you to live with us.

Thank you so much for making that decision.

Born an orphan, I grew up without parents.

Hyodong lost his parents when young, so he was like an orphan, too.

He's regarded you as his own parents,

and now that I married him, you became my parents.

So I'm very thankful.

People do not honor their parents today.

But you really care for my wife and me.

We are lucky and thankful.

Thank you very much.

I regard you as my own father and mother. I mean it.

You are like my first daughter that came back alive.

Thank you.

I have shortcomings, but I'll do my best.

I'm thinking if you can do me a favor.

Can you participate in the family competition?

Family competition?

Yes. I want you to participate in the race.

Well, I think it'll be difficult.

They already think that I'm living with you for money.

Get in on the race?

No. I don't think I can do that.

I'm holding a festival, not a race.

Festival?

Let's have some real fun.

No way!

Their getting in on the race? That's foul!

I knew it.

I knew she was up to it when she moved in.

Hyodong, this isn't what you said.

Right. We supported your marriage on the condition that you won't do this.

You should keep your word.

Exactly.

Even though you can change your mind, this is too much.

This is news to me too.

You never hinted about it to me.

I asked her to do that.

- Really? - Father!

Yes.

Hyodong and Choonhee are like my first children.

It's absurd for them to stay out of the inheritance race.

Guess she already won him over.

I should've stopped her brown-nosing from the outset.

We shouldn't have supported their marriage.

I said my peace. Dismissed.

- Father. - Father.

We need to talk among the women.

- Get up. - Hey, be easy on her.

I'm okay. Don't worry.

You stabbed us in the back.

It's news to me, too. I mean it.

We've cast the dice on this from the beginning.

It's foul for you to get on the race now.

Mom, why aren't you saying anything?

You should meddle in and dissuade them.

I'm not going to side with anyone.

Mom!

You are all my children.

I don't care who inherits $10 million.

Mom...

Mom!

She sides with Hyodong.

I know. You must feel reassured.

Bring scissors from the kitchen.

Why?

I must cut off this vixen's 99 tails.

It'll take all night then.

Cut it out, please. I'm too busy to hear your crap.

You're talking as if you were very busy.

Why yes.

I have to learn how to make noodles from the beginning.

What?

You're about to hit me. Go ahead.

Hit me.

You're so audacious. You think I can't hit you?

Calm down.

Using violence won't help at all.

I wish I could crush her ugly mug.

Look at the way you talk.

You think I'll take it lying down?

No matter what life you lived until now, you should have a bit of conscience.

How dare you dart your tongue for our family bequest?

You have no conscience?

Maybe you thought you could rip off a dopey old man.

Shame on you.

We're not sitting ducks.

We'll never let you snatch our family fortune!

Exactly.

You better stop here if you don't want to be put to shame.

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth!

Be my guest.

She doesn't listen.

She really needs to learn a lesson!

If you hit me,

I'm gonna tell on you to Father and Mother.

This is really nuts!

Dohee, calm down.

Let's stop here for now.

I'm so bitter and resentful!

What's on your mind?

Why do you want to get in on the race and cause this trouble?

Stay out of this matter.

I can't.

It's unlike you to go after money.

You don't know me?

I'm not doing this for $10 million.

Then?

I can't tell you in detail now.

I'm not doing this for money. Can't you trust me?

All his clothes are old and shabby.

Can't believe the legendary tenor came to this state.

What are you doing now?

You should take in the laundry before the sun sets.

But it's embarrassing that you're folding my undies.

Don't be shy.

Right, huh?

We're partners. I don't need to be oversensitive, huh?

You didn't mean anything, right?

This won't do. Get up.

Huh?

All your clothes are old and shabby.

Let's go shopping.

Get up.

Go shopping?

Yes. My mom said underwear is more important than outerwear.

Your last impression is more important than your first impression.

You are a legendary tenor.

But look at you.

You look so shabby.

Oh, don't be in tears.

You'll go shopping with me, right?

How about this?

I don't like it. Show me another one.

Nice.

It's wine!

Let's do a love shot.

Okay.

What are you looking at?

All the seasonings you have are past expiration dates.

It's okay. I rarely cook.

You're living alone. You should eat proper meals.

What a young, pretty wife you have!

Wife?

Guess you are very capable to have such a young wife.

Yes.

What brings you here?

I heard everything from Juri.

She called on you?

She came with her mother and repented in tears.

You father wrapped up the situation by dismissing the chef.

Dismissed the chef? Juri is to be blamed...

Strictly speaking, Ms. Minn is the root of the problem.

What?

Things went wrong when she joined the company.

She drove Juri to misunderstand you and slip a gear.

How could you only consider her position?

Because I understand Juri.

She's loved you for three years.

But then she found her ex sister-in-law luring you.

Chaewon isn't that kind of a woman.

You're talking as if you knew everything about her.

Not everything. But I think I know her.

She'd rather be harmed than do harm to other people.

Did you speak of her like this to Juri?

Excuse me?

I see why Juri did that.

Even I'm so disappointed.

How distressed she must've felt?

What are you talking about?

You keep siding with that woman.

Since you're like this, she easily takes advantage of you.

Behave yourself.

Your engagement is set on the second Saturday next month.

What?

You promised to get engaged as soon as your father gets well.

But that's too early.

Your father keeps rushing it and I feel rushed too.

Seyoon...

Why did you drink so much?

Where's Hongju? How come she doesn't come down and greet him?

She's in a bad mood. Please leave her alone.

Who do you think you are to say that?

I decide if I'll leave her alone or not.

Know your place.

You work for me, not for her parents!

Come on.

You're so noisy.

So you put me to shame before her, huh?

Chaewon...I'm sorry.

My Chaewon...

Something bad happened at work? Why is he calling that name?

It's his secretary's name. Don't mind it.

I know it's his ex-wife's name.

How did you know that?

I picked it up.

Sit here, okay?

Oh!

The pearl necklace is perfect on you. So beautiful.

Take a look.

What do you think? Do you like it?

Why are you giving this to me?

Love my son, love his wife.

What would I hold back from you when you're nice to me?

I haven't been nice to you.

At least you know.

Just kidding.

This is just a small token of my affection.

Don't mind what Cholgyu said.

He's been married to her for 3 years, so he got used to that name.

Don't mind it.

If you happen to meet her someday...

Well, you have no reason to meet her.

Anyways, she's low rent, no match for you.

Just ignore her.

She doesn't deserve your attention at all.

She's not that awful.

What?

Did you meet her?

Yes.

I went Juri's company to have lunch with her,

and I ran into his ex-wife at the cafeteria.

Does Cholgyu know about it?

Yes.

I called him out for lunch. He came and flipped out.

That's why he got soaked with a drink.

Why did you have to go and have lunch there of all places?

It's fun.

What? Fun? What the heck are you...?

I think you were a bit rash today.

You didn't have to go there.

Like I said, she's low-rent and incomparable to you.

So don't ever mind her. Okay?

Okay.

And don't tell this to your mom and make things worse.

Let's keep it between us. Okay?

Okay.

Oh, you are so obedient today.

That's my sweetie.

By the way, no words from your family?

I mean, regarding Taesan home shopping.

No. I haven't heard anything.

You want me to call them and ask?

No, no.

I'm not a demanding mother-in-law.

Looks nice on you.

Now you're doing everything.

It's unacceptable to have Choonhee in the race.

We can even shave our heads as a sign of protest.

We'll continue a sit-in protest until our request is satisfied.

What?

Where are Keemoon and Keechoon?

They couldn't take it sober so they went out for a drink.

Why don't you say anything?

Say something.

Hi, Hyodong.

I bought seafood in season. Let's have a drink.

This is no time to have a drink. Let's go.

Something happened?

What's going on?

This is our family business of the 100-year-old tradition.

We don't want just anybody to take it over.

Certainly not.

Till you withdraw your decision, we'll continue our protest

without moving an inch.

My.

Like one nail driving out another.

Please stop this and let's talk.

You're worrying Father and Mother.

What a pious daughter-in-law.

Why are you sitting on the ground?

What's going on?

Where were you all day? We couldn't get a hold of you.

I left my cell phone at home.

So what's going on?

Come and sit down.

You have an extra hair tie, right?

Yes.

What's the problem?

Choonhee declared that she'd get in on the race.

What? No way.

Absolutely.

We just started the sit-up protest. Come and sit down with us.

Okay.

No. A woman shouldn't sit on the cold ground.

I'll take your place.

Keep your word!

Keep your word! Keep your word!

No Choonhee on the race!

No Choonhee! No Choonhee!

What the heck are you doing?

Can't you stop?

Withdraw the decision!

Withdraw! Withdraw!

What a headache.

Please stop them. I feel nauseous.

If you insist,

I will withdraw my decision.

Yeah! Thank you, Father!

Instead of ruling her out of the race,

I'll donate the $10 million land to the society.

What?

No way.

The winner will only take over the noodle factory.

Dismiss.

Father...

Dismiss, he said.

So he'll only leave the gutted building to the winner, huh?

I think this isn't what we wanted.

No.

Father. Father, can we talk?

Father?

I didn't know you'd attack me.

How could you side with them and betray your friend?

It's not that.

I didn't take their side...

Even though you're after money, you can't do this to me.

Calm down and let's go in. Come on.

Unbelievable.

Did I overdo it?

Seyoon.

I've been waiting for you all evening.

It's late. Let's talk tomorrow.

I was wrong.

It's all my fault.

How much of your words are true?

Sorry?

You might've won over my parents...

but I won't be easy.

Seyoon...

I think I've been mistaken about you.

I thought you were a girl...

with a soft heart, who gave up on love for friendship.

But it turns out...

Let's stop.

Even if everything was fake, my heart for you was true.

Believe me.

I know you must've been disappointed in me,

but can't you see how desperate I was for you?

I'm still mixed up.

Let's talk later after I straighten up my thoughts.

Take care.

He must be really disappointed in me.

What should I do...

What should I do now...

You could've claimed your innocence.

Why did you take that like a fool?

If it hadn't been Seyoon, I might've made excuses.

I thought he could understand me more than anyone else but...

Maybe I felt disappointed and betrayed...

Why do you think him special?

Chaewon, you're ridiculous.

Guess you're nervous about your engagement.

You lost weight.

I think I should take in the waist.

No wonder she lost weight.

Taking care of things from A to Z,

she's up to her neck in preparations.

Fine that the bridal side has to arrange for an engagement.

But no showing up of the groom?

This isn't right.

Mom!

Okay.

Did your fiance get his tuxedo?

He'll take care of it.

I see.

What labor of love.

She got the ring herself, she got the dress herself...

Is she getting engaged by herself or what? Pest on him.

Mom, please!

Okay, I'll shut up.

I told you. Give me some time to think.

You can think after the engagement.

Mom.

You agreed to get engaged to her.

Yes, that's true.

But my head is in a muddle,

and I can't go ahead with it in this state.

We already sent out your engagement invites.

So why did you do that on your own?

Why are you rushing this?

Because I felt the same thing from 3 years ago might be repeated.

Mom.

I don't know why but I got that feeling.

I'm scared, Seyoon.

Your father barely recovered his health.

Don't disappoint him again, please?

I made myself clear. I'll put off my engagement.

What is this?

My engagement invite.

Hope you are sensible enough not to attend it.

Then why are you giving this to me?

To help you give him up.

If you can't give him up unless you see it, you may come.

You'll see many familiar faces.

I hated you being around Seyoon.

I was so desperate to pull you apart from him.

Even if everything was fake, my heart for you was true.

Believe me.

You look so down. Are you sick?

Congratulations.

I'm afraid I can't attend your engagement.

I overdid it again.

I won't be welcomed there.

I'd better not attend it for your sake.

Congratulations?

Do you mean it?

Excuse me?

Do you really congratulate my engagement?

Well, it's a happy occasion.

Of course I congratulate on it.

That's all?

Mr. Yi! Good news!

I just came back from Le Festin.

They decided to give us the gold zone.

Really?

Hi, Ms. Minn.

Your noodles appealed to that picky French buyer.

That's good.

You've been a big help.

Thank you.

I only did what I have to do.

How about having a get-together today after work?

Sure.

You should join us.

I'm okay. It'll be your team-outing.

No, no.

We got the deal thanks to you.

Sure you should join the party.

You pick up things quickly.

She has a very perceptive mind.

Thank you.

What do you think noodles are?

I think noodles are like the magpies.

What's that baloney?

I know.

The magpies sing when a welcome guest comes.

We eat noodles on happy occasions,

so I think noodles are like the magpies.

That's my wife!

That's a nice analogy.

Keechoon.

Yes, Father.

What do noodles mean to you?

Ten million dollars, of course.

Are you crazy?

I'm sorry. I wasn't here just now.

That's enough. Dismiss.

Father...

Get a grip! You can't reveal your heart so easily!

I'm still in shock of betrayal.

It's not his fault.

It's our fault to have believed him.

Let's go.

Seems you are peer rejects.

Are you adding oil to the fire?

Don't take it out on him. Let's go.

Okay.

See? I told you we'd better not get in on the race.

Look at us, being out casted.

Let's stop here.

Please. Don't ask, don't nitpick. Just trust me.

Choonhee.

Come on. Let's hang the noodles outside.

This is nuts.

Come with us.

But...

Hi, Mr. Yi.

Isn't it our team-outing?

You made the biggest contribution in this project. Sure you can join us.

Thanks but I'll let you have fun by yourselves.

I've been mistaken about you.

Let's fix our understandings over a drink. Please?

Please come with us.

If you don't have an appointment, join us.

Come on. I'm hungry.

Alright.

I have to go shopping for a wedding ring.

Excuse me for leaving first.

Are you going with her then?

No.

Let's go.

To our first step into Le Festin! Cheers!

Cheers!

You're not gonna drink?

I feel a bit lousy.

Maybe you're watching your weight ahead of your engagement.

He doesn't need to watch his weight.

He has a nice body.

That's true.

Let me fill your glass.

I'm sorry I misunderstood you in many ways.

You have my apologies.

I'm glad there are no more misunderstandings.

Drink it up. I want to fill your glass too.

I'm a poor drinker.

Come on, this is a happy day. Let's drink to our fill, okay?

Come on, let's drink.

Man, you did an excellent job!

Thanks. Bottoms up!

Feels good, huh?

I'm feeling a little tipsy.

It's late. Let's break up the party.

Okay.

Good mood, good drinks. Feel great.

Well, I appreciate what you've done so far.

Thank you.

Well, let's leave now.

It'll be a waste to not finish the alcohol. Just one sec.

Here.

Thanks.

Excuse me! Can I have some water?

No. I have some here.

Just one last glass.

That's not water.

Don't forget me.

Okay. Good job.

Thank you.

How do you like it?

Isn't it more sour than the previous one?

Well, uh...

How come your face doesn't change at all no matter what you taste?

You have such a poker face.

I'm sorry, I gotta go.

Oh, Mr. Yi.

Here, here.

Good night, Mr. Yi.

See you tomorrow.

Take care.

See you tomorrow.

- Take care. - Good night.

My car is in the parking lot.

Let me give you a ride.

But you drank.

No. I didn't drink a drop.

You didn't?

No. I'm in a bad condition so I didn't drink.

You just drank soju.

What?

I poured soju I was offered in a glass not to get drunk.

And you drank it thinking that it was water.

I've lost my palate.

What?

You can't sense the taste?

Yes. It's been three years.

How come?

I use to have a girlfriend.

She was studying to become a cook. She died in a car accident.

On the day of the accident,

for my mom who had opposed our marriage,

my girlfriend got up early and made a cake for her.

On the way to my house with her...

...a drunk driver hit my car and...

Eunseol...

Eunseol...

I lost my love and my palate at that time.

I'm sorry I didn't know that.

For the past three years,

I've been suffering from guilt.

So the ashes from the other day was...

Yes.

Only my best friend knows I've lost my palate.

Even my family doesn't know about it.

I'll keep it a secret.

I didn't know I could tell this story this calmly.

I'm sorry to remind you of the bitter memory.

That's okay.

Now that I opened up my heart, I feel free and relaxed.

I feel lighthearted.

Maybe because it's you who I told my secret to,

I feel comfortable.

I believe she doesn't want you to remain depressed.

Cheer up.

You'll recover your palate and feelings of love.

Do you really think so?

Do you really think I can recover the way I was?

You don't know when you are in love.

When you were with her, you looked free from the memory of Eunseol.

Think carefully.

After you met Chaewon, you were probably free from the past.

[Mom]

Where on earth are you?

Don't you know your engagement is in 3 hours?

I believe my son isn't an irresponsible man.

Just be on time.

I thought about it over and over again.

We'd better stop here.

Stop what?

When I decided to get engaged, I thought I could try, but...

Seyoon.

There are things beyond my control.

Let's cancel our engagement.

If we don't stop here, you'll get hurt.

Cancel? How could you say that?

It is only a few days away.

I'm sorry.

I'll feel owed to you for the rest of my life.

Unacceptable. We'll get engaged no matter what.

I just spoke with my mom.

I'm sorry.

The person you have reached is not available...

You didn't get a hold of him yet?

Yes or no? Is he still out of contact?

Wait. What if we get mud on our faces?

We should've cancelled the engagement.

But you and Mrs. Yi were so stubborn and...

Can't you be quiet?

He'll come, so don't worry!

If I hesitate anymore, everybody will be hurt.
