Episode 5

Mom…

Can’t we let them stay at our house?

I said no! Don’t make me repeat myself.

Eun Soon will come get them soon. She’s just too upset right now.

Upset about what?

She didn’t know her brother and her sister-in-law passed away!

How upset would that make you?

It’d feel devastating!

But she can’t put it out on the kids!

Don’t add to the fuss. Just forget about them.

Eun Soon will calm down and take them with her.

I felt so bad for the baby. He was crying!

I bet his diapers are wet, too.

I think they lost someone.

Both their parents!

I feel bad…

Who keeps gibbering on at the table? Whose manners?

It looks like it’ll rain for a while.

I can still hear the baby crying!

Didn’t Eun Soon come get them yet?

She was drunk earlier. Maybe she fell asleep!

Then SaYub would’ve come taken them in.

But dad! Sa Yub hates Eun Soon!

How young was the baby?

Still an infant! He was tiny.

He must be soaking wet…

Jae Oh…

We will not butt into other family’s business!

They can’t stay out there all night with the baby!

The rain’s pouring.

Don’t mind petty things like this. Go study!

You’re too soft-hearted. You have to toughen up to be a man!

You can’t form a mountain without the last heap of dirt.

Even if you study all day and all night…

You might not be able to accomplish all you want!

Just because you ranked first last semester if you skip even one night…

But he doesn’t. He studies all night!

Dad, I’ll never ask for a piglet again. Please let them stay here.

That pig…

You said sympathy is the biggest creed of a noble.

I can’t let them sleep in my house. Not for the sake of Lee Shil.

But if they somehow find a way into the servants’ quarters…

Then I don’t know…

I’ll go get them!

Hey! You can stay at my house! Come with me!

Hey! They’re not here…

Eun Soon must’ve took them.

I’m scared, Young Sun.

Isn’t this a funeral house?

I’m scared. This place looks haunted!

But it’s better than shivering in the rain. Put your things down here.

There’s a mat!

Come and have a seat here.

Young Doo, take out the leftover rice cakes.

But I finished them!

What are you doing? Put Young Jae down!

What if there are ghosts here… The ones that eat children!

Let’s leave after the rain.

I should’ve brought some water…

For Young Jae to drink?

Yeah. He must be starving…

Do you want me to go get some rainwater?

Did you see that? Did you see the woman’s head?

Oh gosh!

Who’s there!

Go away if you’re a ghost. Answer if you’re human!

Young Doo! Young Doo!

The magpie did bring guests!

It told me… that we’ll be having important guests.

So I prepared a lot of food!

Who are you? Why are you here?

My mom said I should hide well.

She said, Tan Shil. When the sun falls, hide deep!

Or else, you won’t survive!

I don’t think she’s sane…

I’m sorry, we’re…

We’re only going to stay a night. So…

I think she wants us to eat these.

But the melon’s rotten! So is everything else.

Do you have any rice…?

I do! Are you hungry?

Have this!

What’s this?

It’s rice wine cake!

It’s good. Helps me sleep!

This is good!

What a pretty baby. Do you want me to feed him?

Can you? But you’re not a mother…

But I have breasts! I have two of them, want to see?

What on Earth is she saying? Stop!

See? They’re not here.

Then where are they…

- No? - No, they’re not here.

Someone else from the neighborhood must've taken them in.

How’s Lee Shil doing?

She’s gone to the temple. Mr. Lee is on a business trip.

In Ho and JiSook didn’t know anything.

They’re probably sleeping at someone’s house… come in!

Why are you still awake?

I have books left to read…

Don’t push yourself too hard and get some sleep.

Why don’t youdo something aboutEun Soon?

You’re going to hide in Seoul? It’s that easy for you, huh?

What about JiSook and me? You don’t care about how we live?

My head…

My head!

I’m not your aunt. Get out!

Chang Rae!

Where are the kids?

Which kids?

You’re the one who kicked them out!

Where did they go?

I don’t know!

You kicked them out! How would I know?

Mom! Wake up, I’m hungry!

How pretty. Pretty baby guest.

Oh my!

Isn’t the baby pretty?

Did they sleep here?

Eating this…?

Yes! They had a lot.

You’re up.

You’re drunk! You’re drunk!

What’s all this noise?

Young Sun I feel weird…

You’re drunk too!

Wake up! Young Doo, Young Sook! Get up!

The rain stopped! Time to wake up!

Here, help yourselves.

- Thank you so much. - Thank you.

Alright, you’re welcome. Start eating already.

Don’t worry about him and eat.

My mom cooked everything!

You want to eat? Here…

Will you look at him eat! Why, Lord!

Very good!

They must’ve been starving!

Mom, do we have anymore?

No, I should’ve made more…

Why aren’t you eating? You don’t feel well?

A little…

Finish the rest.

Soon Geum, I’m done!

Coming!

Dad, you didn’t eat much!

I’m done too.

You too?

Why don’t you eat more?

I feel bloated. It’s better to eat less.

Here, have more!

I found them!

Where are they?

Eating, at Soon Geum’s.

At the funeral house?

Yes.

What happened to their parents?

I’m not sure either…

Thank you though.

What will you do with them?

I’ll find a way.

Will you please look after them until tomorrow?

I’ll talk to Sang Nam tonight and find out what to do by then.

Alright.

Move.

You still don’t know how to do the laundry?

Is it true that both your parents are dead?

I’ll be damned…

Are you feeling okay? I’m dying too.

Lend me some money.

What happened?

Can you, or can you not?

I can’t.

My business went down after the currency reform.

What are you doing?

This is milk powder, right? Give this to me.

That? Why do you need that?

Jong Bok can’t eat that. That’s for babies!

Just give it to me!

For free?

I can’t do that…

Five kids came for her?

Yes. They’ve come to live with Eun Soon.

Oh, my head…

What did Lee Shilsay this time?

Well, she never says anything.

But Chang Rae seemed busy preparing for her trip to Seoul.

God, women and their families!

One always threatens to go running off to her family…

And the other has brought howmany from her side?

My head, my head!

Did you eat lunch?

I’ll get going now.

Yes.

I can’t eat because of you these days.

But you’re like the pillar of our family. You can’t starve yourself!

No matter what you say I can’t list Jong Bok right now.

Lee Shil is threatening to go to Seoul because of this mess you’ve created!

Why did you have to move in like that?

Do you want to see me locked up?

Fine, I won’t talk about it until Jong Bok goes to middle school.

Seriously?

Under one condition. Do something for me?

Anything except listing! What is it?

You do me this favor then I won’t make a sound…

until Jong Bok goes to middle school.

Did your mom sew well too?

She was a good net weaver.

I see! You’re from the shore.

So… how much schooling did you get?

I’m in 5th grade.

I’m in 5th grade too! I heard she’s really smart!

Yeah, she always gets all As!

And how about you?

I get Bs and other letters…

You should ask my brother if you ever need help.

He even got the Minister’s award!

Really?

Yeah!

She’s here.

Get your things.

Did you find a place?

They’re going home!

Home? In Ho’s home?

Thank you so much, Im Soon. No need to pay for the Makgeolli for the feast.

Come on. Hurry and get your things!

Hurry!

Okay.

Bow to Im Soon for helping you.

Oh, right.

They don’t need to!

Happy New… wait, no.

I don’t know what you’re up to…

but do whatever you want, Eun Soon.

I’ll stay out of it like you said.

- Hey, Kim! - Yes, sir.

Get the car ready. I’m going on a trip again.

Yes, sir.

Come stand here.

No matter how hot it gets before you say hello to Ms. Yoon…

No, unless Ms. Yoon agrees…

You won’t be able to stay in this house.

So stand still and wait here.

Got it?

Are those the kids?

Yes, ma’am.

That wicked wrench! How can she do such a thing?

It’s alright.

We have to tell Sang Nam.

He knows already, obviously. She’s doing this on purpose.

But he’s such a greedy man…

How does she win every time?

Jae Shik’s not here… We’ll have to wait for Chang Rae to drive them out.

Ms. Yoon.

I’m sure you’ve heard…

But they’re unfortunate kids who lost their parents to the storm.

And all they have left is an aunt who’s whoring her life away.

I can’t even get them a room.

So if you can give us a place… Even a storage is fine!

Then they’ll stay very quiet until they find somewhere else.

So please, until then…

What is this?

Why do we have beggars in our lawn?

Someone give them the leftovers and get them out of here!

Oh no, JiSook’s here. She won’t like this one bit…

I’ll go out there.

Hey! Why did you do that?

What, you loser?

Stop!

I said stop!

Why you…

You little brat! Let her go.

What are you kids doing? You little…!

Who do you think you are!

Let her go!

How dare you do this to her!

You rude little brat! Let go!

Look how strong this brat is!

Stop that right now.

What a demon…

Can’t hide your blood, can you?

Stay out of this.

Why should I?

You’re the one who should stay out of all this.

Look at her. What are you going to do now?

JiSook, go to your room.

I want them out, right now!

In your room, now!

You follow me. Now!

These dirty little kids one after another…

I think they’re here to stay!

Does Sang Nam know?

I don’t know.

He shooed them off and ran away.

Geez…

He always does that. Never confronts his troubles…

How can you be so stupid?

Who did you think she was?

You do that again I’ll kick you out for good.

How suffocating…

Don’t go out in the lawn. This isn’t my house.

Stay inside the room anddon’t be seen by the adults.

It’s not your house?

You get yourselves in trouble I’ll send you all off to the orphanage.

You see what kind of a person I am?

Answer me!

Yes!

And you, Buddeul!

Yes, ma’am.

Keep the baby quiet.

Don’t make a sound. Make sure of that, okay?

Okay…

They must be…!

Your brother left so many of them behind…

Do you have it?

Yes.

Eat!

SaYub, why are those beggars still in our house?

They’re not beggars.

Yes, they are! They don’t have parents!

Going around with Tan Shil eating rice wine cakes!

So if I die… Does that make you a beggar too?

I didn’t say that.

JiSook, please.

They’re going to the orphanage soon.

To the orphanage?

Obviously…Eun Soon can’t possibly raise them all.

Those kids lost both their parents at once.

How desperate must they’ve been to come here?

I’ll teach them manners. Don’t you go near them!

And don’t fight like that again!

Noble ladies shouldn’t do such horrendous things.

I don’t want to speak to her. So please tell her.

Tell her to take the kids and leave.

I will… but I think you should give her some time.

I heard Eun Soon is broke.

She lost all her money and has nowhere to go.

I guess Sang Nam doesn’t give her a lot of money at least…

Some men spend so much money on women...

that they end up selling farms and houses…

But Sang Nam doesn’t pay for all the fun he has!

What a smart man, ha!

Oh Lord, what have I…

Like this…

Be careful not to spill any…

Just the right amount!

You got it?

Yes.

MiSoon will help you for the first time today…

But you’re in charge from tomorrow!

Yes, ma’am.

And before you feed him check the temperature…

by dropping some on your wrist like this.

Okay!

Let’s see…

Hey, he likes it! I want to try…

It looks good!

It’s only for Young Jae. Don’t you dare taste it, alright?

- Yes. - Yes.

He must’ve been starving…

Let her do it now.

Help him burp after he’s done.

- Okay! - Okay.

You have to be nice to the family members here.

That’s the only way you’ll be able to stay here.

Do you understand?

But we’re not allowed to go out to the lawn.

Yeah, try not to!

Just play down the other alley.

How about the bathroom?

You can go to the bathroom!

Geez… how old are you?

Six!

Lord…

They’re all nice and smart.

Good for them. I can’t raise them all!

Then what? They have no one else.

I’ll send them to the orphanage.

Come in!

I’m here to pay you for the Makgeolli.

Sorry it’s late. Thanks to you, we had a great feast!

I said you don’t have to pay!

It’s not like you can afford not to take my payment.

Someone paid me back today.

I bet you’re worried about the kids.

How will you raise all five?

I can’t…

How will I raise all five like you said?

Then what will you do?

She’ll send them to the orphanage.

Feeding them isn’t the problem.

If that’s all it takes then I’ll feed them what I can…

but they have to go to school.

I guess… And the tuition keeps going up.

Rice is more expensive now too. It’s hard to make a living out of rice cakes.

Oops, I have to make dinner!

See you!

- Bye! - Goodbye…

Why don’t you ask Sang Nam for help?

Him?

He was scared I’d ask for money that he started blabbering about some ship!

Stopping me from talking!

Then give them up for adoption…

Adoption?

Yeah, I can ask around if you want. There are families looking for sons.

I don’t know…

Maybe I should go to a fortuneteller…

He burped! He did it, Young Sun!

He burped so loud! Right, Young Sun?

Hush! Be quiet. Don’t laugh too loud.

You heard, right? There’s nowhere to go if we get kicked out.

And this isn’t our aunt’s house!

Like that lady said… we have to be nice to the family here.

Okay, everyone?

- Okay. - Alright.

For this tiny of a room? What a huge favor this is!

Then what? Do you prefer the funeral house?

I didn’t say that.

Please, Young Ran. Keep you temper down!

Alright!

Oh, what a waste!

Mom, that’s gone bad already!

Don’t worry about it and go set up the table.

I’m home.

Yes. What happened to your shirt?

It got wet.

What are you doing?

She’s eating the rotten rice.

Stop talking and go set up the table! Your dad will be hungry.

Hey, the baby’s gone!

Gone? To where?

Take that shirt off!

Gone where? Back to their home?

To JiSook’s house.

Their aunt took them with her. But I’m not sure if Lee Shil will let them stay.

Even if Lee Shil does… I don’t know how they’ll be fed…

I think Eun Soon is thinking about sending them to the orphanage.

Are you serious? That’s bad!

Go set up the table!

All of you, come out here!

Come on, hurry up!

- What‘s going on? - Why are you doing this to us?

Keep your mouths shut! You have bad luck on you.

The bad spirits and ghosts… Go away, go away!

Ghosts from underwater! Ghosts from above the water!

Ghosts who drowned and ghosts who suffocated!

Ghosts who starved and ghosts with tumors!

Away, away! Go away!

You’re here! Are you hungry?

I’ll bring you food soon.

Keep your eyes on your siblings.

If they cause trouble…

Or fight with JiSook like last time I’ll have you all kicked out!

And for the time you’re here stayas quiet as possible.

Don’t you dare make a sound! Got it?

Yes, ma’am.

And don’t dry your laundry here.

Dry it somewhere back there where we can’t see.

Okay.

What’s this? Take it off.

You’re still awake?

I can wear that, it’s fine.

It got wet, it’ll smell. I’ll have it dried.

Dad always says… it’s important to wear clean clothes.

It’s in some book, isn’t it?

Mom, please stay healthy.

Of course I will!

I won’t go anywhere unless I see you become famous!

When I do, I’m going to buy tons and tons of rice.

Then you won’t have to eat rotten rice ever again, okay?

Sounds good! I’m already full hearing it!

Let me help you.

Alright, then!

I guess you have all the time in this world!

It is said that time is gold!

You should be reading! What do you think you’re doing?

You can’t rank top again like that!

And you! Don’t you know what he’s to become?

Why would you make him get his hands on house chores?

Don’t you know what it means to be a noble person?

Of course, of course. I’m so sorry!

I’m so sorry for being a stupid mother!

Please forgive me, please?

Young Jae, please stop crying…

You ate… and we’re all here. Why are you crying?

We’re supposed to keep him quiet…

What will you do? Is he sick?

Do you think it’s because of the milk powder?

Oh no…

My baby, good baby. Be sound asleep…

Baby stars in the sky have gone to sleep too!

Oh baby, go to sleep. Be sound asleep…

Baby stars in the sky have gone to sleep too!

Oh baby, go to sleep. Be sound asleep…

Baby stars…

I’m sorry!

Rice soup…

Sir, when did you get here?

In the morning.

- Everything went well? - Yes, it did.

Enjoy your meal, then.

What’s wrong with you two? You don’t like the food?

I Said, what’s wrong?

I had a fight with some homeless girl!

Who dare did that to my beautiful daughter?

Who got in a fight with you?

You should’ve ignored them in the first place…

You don’t know what happened!

Dad! Are you going to let them stay? In our house?

Stay in our house…?

Dad… I don’t want to live with those losers!

Losers?

No!

No!

Hey, no!

Oh, no…

What now, Young Ran!

I didn’t mean to…

What a waste…

You shouldn’t have lifted your arm! It’s your fault!

You’re the one who tried to taste it!

What’s wrong with you?

Hey! What are you doing?

You pigs!

But it’s on the ground!

What’s going on?

Oh no, no no! This is expensive stuff!

Why are you eating this!

Do you know how much this costs?

I’m sorry, aunt. I spilled it.

I thought I made myself clear! But you still don’t get it, huh!

Alright then. Off to the orphanage with you all!

Pack your stuff! Get ready to go!

No, please!

You’re crying? You don’t deserve to cry!

It’s all my fault. I did that!

Please forgive me!

I don’t need this. Get out of here now!

You don’t even listen to me! I don’t need you! Leave!

Please forgive me…

Get out!

Oh, my ears!

She’s out of control! How dare she bring the kids!

Hey, who are those kids?

Don’t you know?

This is all because you brought a fox home.

Hey!

Eun Soon brought five kids and made this their home.

Lee Shil wants to see you.

That’s why she wanted me out of town for a while?

Five kids?

You’re up?

It sounds kind of lively with the kids and all…

The house used to be so quiet…

Buy them a house and get them out of here.

What house?

You want me to support two families?

No, you got me wrong.

I mean Eun Soon and Jong Bok are staying for a while…

But I’ll get the kids out today!

I want them all out!

Hey! Is this how you should treat your husband?

I’ve been working all night trying to bring home money…

I’ve been all the way to Busan! And this is what I get?

Is this what noble ladies do?

And we have so many rooms here. Why will I need to buy a house?

If you’re a true man then you will take care of this.

There’s nothing to take care of!

What?

So I have a son out of marriage.

But that’s quite common among men my age, isn’t it?

And I didn’t list him on the family register!

I know things have gone not quite the way I wanted…

And I apologize for that!

But please give me some time. I’ll get this right.

You don’t look so well…

Is there anything you want to eat? There’s a good Chinese restaurant…

You like the seafood and vegetables, right? Would you like that for lunch?

Don’tchange the subject. Take care of things around here.

This isn’t a home to anyone!

How could you treat your own wife like this?

What’s your problem?

I thought you’d take care of things! That’s why I went away.

This was your plan?

Those kids are so loud! They’re shaking up the house!

They better not start calling me uncle!

But they could.

You can’t do things youcan’t afford to do.

You’re not in the position to raise your dead brother’s kids!

I’m trying to find someone who'll adopt the baby.

That’s not a bad idea!

Send the girls off too! As servants, or something.

But not in this town. Somewhere far!

Don’t make any rumors for me.

Adoption? I like that.

What a horrible man you are.

Not as horrible as you.

You’re the one who hung yourself, remember?

I have people running background checks on me.

My brother-in-law is going to find out any day!

Then I’ll be divorced and I’ll never be able to do anything ever again!

Keep that in mind.

If I go down, so does your son.

I have to keep my nomination and win the election.

All I’m asking is that you wait until I become in control of this area.

I thought you loved me. Is this how you prove it?

You know Lee Shil is very ill…

She’s going to die soon!

You said that 10 years ago!

It’s fine.

I’m sorry about my sister. She has a hot temper…

You should be ashamed of that!

Hey Soon Geum! Come with me to piano class. I’ll buy you ice cream!

Young Sun is apologizing. Won’t you accept it?

It’s not like I’m going to keep seeing her.

I’m really sorry on behalf of my sister!

I wish you’d apologize to my sister too…

You started the fight, you know? And we’re not beggars!

Do you think we’ll end up at the orphanage?

No way! We’re going to stay together.

I doubt that. I think we’ll all be separated…

and eventually forget each other.

Once we grow up to be adults…

we won’t even recognize each other!

Young Ran!

It makes me sad that I don’t have parents.

If we help with cleaning they might keep us.

You think so?

Yes! Remember what Mi Soon said?

Young Ran, let’s try to help with house chores…

If we work hard they might start to like us!

Fine…

Why did mom and dad have to die?

Don’t cry.

I’m not!

What are you eating? Like Soon Geum’s piglet?

Nothing. There’s nothing to eat.

Our aunt got mad so she forgot to feed us.

Nothing?Really?

Stop, you smell!

Do you want some soup then?

Really? Can you make soup?

Yes!

One, two, three!

Three bowls of soup. Yum!

You try too!

One, two, three, four!

Yummy soup!

What did I expect!

Let’s go, Young Sun. Let’s go help with the house chores!

What a long hallway!

It’s so spacious!

So many American things!

This must be a television!

What are you doing!

Look, Young Sun. This must be the television!

What’s a television?

Oh, the machine that shows movies? She has one in her house?

How do we turn it on?

Stop! Don’t touch anything!

This isn’t Mr. Goo’s watermelon field.

Alright, alright! I’ll clean!

Hey, stop. Clean this room!

Okay…

Hey, is this the bed? They have a bed!

- Be quiet! - Okay…

It’s so soft!

It must feel like sleeping on clouds!

She has so many clothes!

She got one wrong! The answer is number 3.

I guess she’s smart for a bad tempered girl!

But my sister’s smarter!

Hey, hang this up. Don’t touch anything else.

Rat poison?

Yes… the rats spilled all the rice in the storage.

The more we catch the more they come!

Is Lee Shil eating anything?

Well, I made this for her…

She’s going to die of starvation and not her illness!

She couldn’t sleep at night because the baby cried…

Now we have a fox and five kids in the house!

Put some here too. I think they come this way.

I saw a lot of rat droppings here.

Okay.

Hey, come out! Someone’s coming.

Oh, okay! Okay!

What are you doing here?

Where are you coming from?

Why?

What do you mean why? I asked you a question!

We were cleaning…

Cleaning? You don’t mean stealing?

- No! - No way!

What’s that behind your back? Let me see it!

Geez…

Young Sun said we should help you...

when the baby sleeps!

Help me?

Yes.

She said it must be hard for you to clean this huge house alone.

So we’re going to help you! Please stop being so mean to us.

Will you listen to her talk!

Alright, thank you for the thought.

But don’t enter Lee Shil’s room or In Ho’s room.

Lee Shil specifically said no one’s allowed around those two.

Okay, we won’t.

So… would you like me to wash the rubber shoes?

Rubber shoes? Sure.

Okay.

So they’re nice! And smart too!

I missed again! I’m so out of energy…

Hey, beggar in there.

How much food do you need to stop being hungry!

Beggar! Stop eating!

Hey, beggars!

We’re not beggars!

But you just said so yourself!

Beggars from last year haven't died and come back!

I’ll break your forehead!

Here, eat this. You look like you can’t even stand straight.

What is it?

It’s pupa, you dummy. Forget it, if you don’t want.

It’s good, huh?

Chang Rae made a lot. So I stole a bunch!

It’s good!

Do you have more?

No. Let’s race to the bank!

Alright!

It’s so good. Right, Young Doo?

Yeah…

He said Chang Rae made them, right?

Young Sook, wait here! I’ll be right back!

Okay!

- Young Doo! - Young Sook!

Here! Have some.

Okay!

Hey, this tastes weird.

No, it doesn’t. It tastes fine!

Give them back if you’re not eating!

No, I want them!

You said they taste weird!

I hate you!

You said!

It’s turning white, Young Sun!

Great!

If we clean all of them…

maybe the grandma will give us some food, right?

Yes, so let’s try hard. Okay?

Okay!

But where’s Young Doo and Young Sook? They must be hungry…

Oh, I’m dying! Ow, my stomach!

Isn’t that Young Doo’s voice?

Ow… my tummy…

- Young Doo! - My stomach!

- Young Doo! - Young Doo!

Young Doo, what’s wrong?

Oh, Young Sun. Help me!

Maybe he starved too long!

Young Doo!

JTBC Weekend Drama The Eldest

His eyes are rolled back! What now!
