(Child actors were accompanied
by a guardian...)

(and filmed in a safe,
supervised environment.)

Are you the only one working?
I work, too.

I'm exhausted, too.

Please.
For the pathetic amount you make?

You dump the housework and our kid
on Mom and do whatever you want.

Let's just drop it.

I was a fool
to marry someone like you.

Fine, then let's call it quits.
Let's get a divorce. Right now!

Wow, that's really intense.

Dr. Han Seong Mi,
what's your take on that?

Yes. According to the research
of Dr. John Gottman,

a world-renowned couples therapist,

criticism, contempt, defensiveness,
and stonewalling...

are four major factors
that destroy a relationship.

Unfortunately,
the couple we just saw...

is engaging in these kinds of
dysfunctional communication habits.

So that's why the more they talk,
the more emotional they get,

and the deeper
their conflict becomes.

In that case,
what's the solution for this family?

What this family needs most of all
is to repair their relationship.

And that starts with love.

To heal a relationship
hardened by past wounds,

and to change the way they feel
through their words and actions,

love must always be
at the center of it all.

That is why today, for this couple,

I am prescribing love.

(Episode 1)

You're here.

I'm not late.

I know. I figured it was about time,
so I came out to greet you.

Look at Mr. Big Shot
coming out to greet me.

What is it? What do you need?

Come, this way.

Let's talk at dinner after filming.
It's my treat for your birthday.

- You still remember my birthday?
- Of course. You're my first love.

I'll book a table
at your favorite crab place.

No, thanks. It's my birthday.
I should spend it with my family.

If it's urgent, just tell me now.

Let's do a new show.
Your own solo show.

I don't think I can.

My clinic schedule
is way too packed.

I know I was scraping by...

before my college buddy,
a broadcasting director,

gave me a shot,
and I'm grateful to be this busy,

but I have a day job to get back to.

All right. Let me know
if you change your mind. Anytime.

"Go Myung Hwan's Book Talk."
Today's guest...

is someone our viewers
have been dying to meet.

She's the author of the bestseller,
"Recipe For Love,"

the love guru who prescribes love
to all of Korea's troubled families,

and a board-certified psychiatrist,
Dr. Han Seong Mi.

Welcome.

- Welcome.
- Hello.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Now, I'd like to ask
a more personal question.

In fact, the number one thing
our viewers want to know...

is about your family life.

Oh, right.

According to my notes here,

you and three generations
of your family...

- live in Onjeong. Right?
- Yes, that's right.

I live with my mother-in-law,
my children who still live at home,

and my brother-in-law
and his wife as well.

Wow, that's
a real multigenerational household.

Any trouble with your mother-in-law?

- None whatsoever. That's a fact.
- Wow, really?

The person I look up to the most
is my mother-in-law.

Wow, what's she like?

For starters,
she's absolutely beautiful.

She takes such great care of herself
that whenever we go out together,

- people ask if we're sisters.
- Oh, my.

And on top of that,
she waltzes every morning.

Excuse me? She waltzes?

Yes. She and my father-in-law
used to waltz when they were young,

and she still does it
every single day for exercise.

In fact, she's the only reason
I'm able to have a career.

Everyone, time to eat!

As I'm busy, she's raised our kids
as if they were her own,

and she manages our huge household
perfectly, all by herself.

- Eat up.
- This looks delicious!

My mother-in-law is always
the steady center of our family.

She's the rock
that holds us all together.

Is your mother-in-law
a full-time homemaker?

No, she's a pharmacist.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

She works with my husband, a doctor,

and my brother-in-law,
a physical therapist.

- They're all in the same building.
- Thank you.

- Take care.
- Thanks.

I see.

So your husband's a doctor.
His late grandfather, his father...

and... Wait.

Your two children
also went to med school?

Yes.

And your husband is an internist...
Hang on a second.

Your face just lit up the second
we mentioned your husband.

- It did.
- My gosh. Did it, really?

What's your husband like?

My husband...

is a truly selfless
and idealistic doctor.

You'd be so surprised
if you saw his clinic.

- Hello. Good to see you.
- Yes, hello.

Hello, welcome.

It feels less like a clinic
and more like a local hangout.

Try to bend it a little, like this.
Oh, ouch...

This must've hurt so much
you couldn't get any sleep.

- He's so down-to-earth and warm.
- It really hurts.

He treats his patients like family.
No, actually...

He treats them
like his own best friends.

- Just roll up your pant leg a bit.
- Here, mix this with your rice.

- Don't bring me things you sell.
- Please.

Doctor, you're the one
who helped me walk again,

and you even played matchmaker
for my granddaughter.

- Just a jar of fermented seafood.
- Honestly.

But yours is too good.
I can't possibly say no...

All right, thank you. I'll enjoy it.

- Watch your step on the way out.
- I will.

Mr. Go! My goodness.
What have you brought now?

I told you. You shouldn't be
carrying heavy things.

It's some nabak kimchi.

Your favorite.
My daughter made it for you.

Gosh, you know a meal isn't complete
for me without this.

- Oh, boy.
- It's the best, right?

- I really wish I could be on TV
- And he's such a romantic.

- Singing
- He likes music therapy too,

- And dancing
- so he volunteers on weekends.

- My pretty face
- Oh, my.

That's what made you fall for him
and get married young.

What about your children?
You said they were med students.

Go on and brag a little.

Our son graduated from med school
and is now studying for his boards.

He'll take over his dad's practice
and become a great doctor,

making him the fourth generation
of doctors in the family.

Is your daughter a doctor, too?

No. She earned her medical license,

but she felt a different calling
and is doing something else now.

And what is it that she does?

- Our daughter's a designer.
- A designer?

She says that in their own way,
designers are healers, too.

They help people's emotional health
by creating clothes that suit them.

A "fashion therapist," if you will.

Wow. You really seem perfect.
You even raised your kids so well.

For everyone watching at home today,
could you share your secret...

- to raising such a perfect family?
- Of course.

First, we respect each other,
and we don't bottle up our emotions.

We've learned to communicate
without blaming each other.

My, I bet every family in Korea
is envious of you.

You're such a perfect,
exemplary family.

Where did everyone go?
Lunch is almost over.

You startled me!

My goodness. What is all this?

- Happy birthday, Dr. Han!
- Happy birthday!

Thanks. Thank you both.

Hold on.

Oh, it's my husband.

He's calling for your birthday.

- How sweet!
- Oh, stop.

We'll get ready
for the afternoon appointments then.

- All right. Thanks.
- All right, then.

- Of course, happy birthday!
- Happy birthday!

(So-called husband, Gong Jeong Han)

What is it?

Hey, you busy?

Kind of. Why?

Today...

You know, today...

What about today? What is it?

Well, today...
I was wondering if you...

Spit it out. What?

No, it's just...

I was wondering
if you could lend me some money.

Figures.

Hello?

Is that why you called? For money?

What else?

You only call when you need
something, don't you?

- So, do you have money to lend me?
- And where would I get the money?

Fine, forget it.

Wait, what is it this time?

You just said
you don't have any money.

Just tell me. Now!

The high-frequency thermotherapy
and premium AI ultrasound machines.

Are you behind on the payments?

Yes. If I can't pay by month's end,
they're going to repossess them.

See?

Why buy them in the first place?
For your hole-in-the-wall clinic?

You have no idea
how amazing these are, do you?

It has a deep-learning engine
that automatically analyzes lesions.

How often do you use it?

You see patients with colds,
sore knees, and backs.

Why buy something you can't afford
if you're barely going to use it?

Hey, I saved Mr. Baek
from the hardware shop with this!

Fine, forget it.
I'll figure it out myself.

Figure it out how?
How are you going to solve anything?

Take out another loan?
Go to a loan shark?

Did you even pay your brother
this month?

Please, just take patients
who are insured!

And stop giving out free treatments.

How can you always be thinking
only of other people?

Are you running a charity?
When are you going to stop?

We both know we're short on money,
so please stop causing trouble.

Hey, but let's be honest.

You took every last penny we had
to open your clinic in Seoul.

That's why we're so broke
in the first place.

I knew you'd bring that up.
Did I make that decision by myself?

Besides, am I not paying it back?
I'm making payments every month.

Since you're on TV more often
and seeing more patients,

I thought you'd be making
more money, so I called.

Between the rent for the clinic
and the rent for my studio,

- I'm stretched thin, too.
- All right, I get it.

For now, just try to buy some time.

I'll come down this weekend,
and we can talk about it then.

You're coming home this weekend?

You don't want me to?

No, it's just you haven't been home
in two months. Why so suddenly?

Grandfather's memorial service is
this week.

Oh, right. The service.

You only care about other people.
You couldn't care less about home.

Hello. Yes. I have to go.

Hello...

Love must always be
at the center of it all.

That is why today, for this couple,

I am prescribing love.

Love... What a joke.

(Song Jae Geun)

So, have you decided
to give it a shot, Doctor?

Yes. I talked it over
with my husband,

and he thought
I should give it a shot.

And since you're saying I'm needed,
I'd like to be helpful if I can.

Great. You're a true doctor couple,
just as I thought.

- Great decision. Thank you.
- But I do have one question.

Hosting a show under my own name
is different from being a panelist.

I was wondering about the fee
and payment structure.

Here.

Wow, the rice is perfect today.
Who made it?

Yong Tae's grandmother did.
Jeong Ah brought the greens.

- We have nabak kimchi and seafood.
- Oh, my.

Oh, yes! Nabak kimchi from Mr. Go.
It's the absolute best!

Oh, Mom. About Mr. Go...

He picked up his medicine, right?

Yes. But you said he needed to make
a hospital appointment? Why?

I'm just a little worried
about a potential heart attack.

Oh, right. Ju Ah's mom
is coming home this weekend.

My gosh, you actually called her?

What's the occasion?
I didn't even have to remind you.

Remind me of what?

It's her birthday today.

It's her birthday today?

- You called her without knowing?
- Of course, he didn't know.

Then why did you call?

Well, I just...

Why do you think?

Don't tell me
you asked her for money.

I can't believe this kid...
I told you I'd take care of it.

Why would you bother her
with a call like that?

How would you handle it, Mom?
Where would you get the money?

She said we'll talk again
at this weekend's memorial service.

She's so busy. Why would she come
for the service? I can do it myself.

Please, Mom. If she doesn't show up,
you know Uncle will make a scene.

Mr. Gong! If you take all that,
what are we supposed to eat?

What? Come on, there's plenty here.

I'm taking some for Hui Gyeong.

She's at home. She can feed herself.
Why do you dote on her so much?

Hey, we're still
in our honeymoon phase.

What are you talking about?
You've been married for five years.

You're still newlyweds with no kids.
Legally, it lasts for seven years.

Housing, tax breaks, and loans...
All of it extends to seven years.

Sure, whatever.
Must be nice to be so lovey-dovey.

I guess one marriage has to go well.
Dr. Gong's marriage is struggling.

I'm sorry.
I don't know what got into me.

I wonder if Woo Jae is eating well
while he studies.

He probably eats at the study cafe.

But what happens now that Woo Jae
failed his medical board exam again?

Failing once can be a simple mistake
or he was off by one row,

but to fail both exams
two years in a row is strange.

Don't you think?

There I go again. I must be crazy.

Hey, why you...

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, dear Mom

Happy birthday to you

Where are you calling from?

I just stepped out for a minute
from studying.

Make sure you take some breaks
and get some fresh air, Mom.

Thank you.
You're the only one I can count on.

Your dad just calls
to ask for money.

I'm sorry for letting you down
this time.

I was hoping to give you my license
for your birthday.

Woo Jae.

Have you thought
about a prep course?

It's okay.
The tuition is so expensive.

I know what I did wrong.
I'll study on my own.

Okay.

(Medicine, Gong Woo Jae)

It appears to be an anxiety disorder
from extreme stress over your exams.

I'll prescribe an antidepressant.
You should also attend therapy.

(Hanguk University Hospital)

- Delicious, right? It's to die for.
- Yes.

But, honey.

Can't you move to another clinic
that pays properly?

No, how could I do that?
Our clinic needs a PT, too.

But honey, what if your uncle
is hard on me at the service?

Every time he sees me,

he says we still don't have a child
because I'm too old.

- Then...
- Yes?

Why not stay late at the hair salon
and take your time coming home?

- Really? Can I really do that?
- Of course.

- Wait. Open wide.
- What?

- I'm stuffed.
- Come on.

- Then just take your time.
- Okay.

Thanks for switching spots with me.

I've been here for 40 years.
It's not like I'm going to run off.

Okay, got it. All right, bye.

Did you switch your turn
for the payout?

Yes.

I was in a bind, but they switched.
What a relief.

- Oh, did you talk to Mom?
- Yes.

Ju Ah must be swamped
with that home shopping show.

I know. Of the two teams,
only the top one will be kept.

So the department's being cut
in half.

Yes. If she loses,
her entire team gets fired,

and she'll be demoted to staff.
She's really worried.

Yes, she must be.

That's going to be really hard
for her to take.

What we at FG
have been working on...

our lovingly prepared
Spring Summer collection.

This season's concept is heritage...

What?

Hey!

Eat up, then you can practice.

Gosh, seriously.

What?

What's this?
I'm cutting carbs for the show.

Come on. You need carbs to be kind.
Just eat it. It won't matter.

Why so nice, Mr. Park Jun Hyeok?
Did you forget we're rivals?

Hey, wait. Don't tell me...
You didn't poison the food, did you?

Can't you see I'm eating it, too?

I really wouldn't care if I got cut
and you became the team lead.

Hey. At least make it believable.

Was it that obvious?

No, seriously, go easy on me, okay?
I'm the one who's desperate here.

I mean,
both of your parents are doctors.

You have your medical license
and were born with a silver spoon.

Meanwhile, I don't have parents,
and I have to scrape by on my own.

You really have no clue, do you?

If this were a misery contest,
I'd give you a run for your money.

Hey.

Anyway, you seem pretty nervous.

Your mom's a total natural
on camera, though.

Can we not talk about my family?
I told you it was a secret.

Honestly, though, I can see
where your mom is coming from.

If my kid got a medical license
and then quit, I'd go crazy too.

That's exactly when I stopped living
as my mother's daughter.

I want to live my life as me,
Gong Ju Ah.

Anyway, did you hear we're getting
a new director after these layoffs?

Yes, I heard that too. They say
the new director is a foreigner.

- From Argentina?
- Yes. What was his name again?

Iglesias, Facu, or Ignacio?

Iglesias or whatever.
I'll worry about that later.

I just really want
to get through this mess.

The more I think about it,
isn't this just too cruel?

It's so cheap and low-down.

Hey, what if we both just quit...

and start our own brand together?

It's because
you're so impulsive and reckless...

that your mom gives you
such a hard time.

Hey!

Why are you always on my mom's side?

That's ridiculous.

Grandma.

It's your mom's birthday.
Did you call her?

What's the big deal?
It's not like she celebrates mine.

Still.

That's no way to treat the mother
who gave birth to and raised you.

Let's get that straight.
She gave birth to me,

but you're the one
who raised me, Grandma.

If you're late, don't bother
coming here. Go to your mom's.

- No way.
- What?

I'm serious. I'll lock you out
and change the door code.

Grandma! Come on.

Unbelievable...

Which one can I get for you?

No idea. The person I'm buying for
never likes anything I pick.

- Just give me the most popular one.
- And how many candles?

One second. Let me see...

How old is Dr. Han Seong Mi?
Is she 52 or 53?

Just give me 5 big ones
and 5 small ones.

What's with you? It's my birthday,
and I don't even get a single call?

I don't care how busy you are.
You have no basic courtesy.

How do you expect to get by
in the real world?

Come on.

We just really don't get along.

We're like oil and water.

That brat.
She left me on read again.

Ju Ah? Is that you?

Oh, thank you.

To my eldest daughter,
who's always working so hard.

I'm sorry this is all I can do
to celebrate with you.

Happy birthday.
Thank you for being my daughter.

Mother.

It's just a birthday.
You shouldn't have bothered.

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?
You're always saying that.

I heard Jeong Han called you.

Don't worry about the money.
I've taken care of it.

Did you ask the landlord
for the deposit back?

Or did you dip into your savings?

I handled it.

Come by this weekend if you're free.
Don't rush if you're busy.

- But I miss you so much. Just come.
- Okay, I'll be there.

Are you feeling okay?

Of course.
Now, eat up before it gets cold.

If you feel lonely,
just think of me.

- I'm the expert on being lonely.
- Okay.

Thank you for the food, Mother.

Oh, dear.

I told you to sleep at your mom's.
Why did you insist on coming here?

I'm a grown woman.
Why tell me to sleep at my mom's?

I don't even remember sleeping
in the same room as her as a kid.

You should've given her the cake.
Why buy it just to bring it here?

I was going to!
I was set to surprise her with it.

But right when I was buying it,
her text rubbed me the wrong way.

- It just ruined the whole mood.
- Honestly.

Yes. Are you Mr. Go Il Sik's son?

Yes, this is Gong Jeong Han.

Yes, from Onjeong. That's right.

And just like that,
we're invisible again.

He's always so nice to strangers.

It's because of Grandfather.
If Grandfather's sick,

he hopes someone will help him out.
So he always pays it forward.

You mean the grandfather who ran off
30 years ago with another woman?

- Dad's devotion is so touching.
- Ju Ah!

What?

She's not wrong.
Eat up and get to bed early, okay?

- Okay.
- Good night, Grandma.

You too.

You must be so stress-free,
always saying what's on your mind.

And you must never get angry,
being so understanding all the time.

(January 30, 2026)

My dear husband.

It's been a while since
I've picked up a pen to write you.

It's our eldest daughter-in-law's
53rd birthday.

It seems like only yesterday
she married into our family at 20.

Look how much time has passed.

Jeong Han was struggling
to keep his clinic afloat,

so I cashed out my savings pool
to help him.

The seventh anniversary...

of your father's passing
is this weekend.

- Hello there.
- Hello.

Gi Cheol?

Gi Cheol!

You're my sons' father!
Hey, Gong Gi Cheol!

Hey, Gong Gi Cheol!

Why pretend you don't know me?
How can you just ignore me?

How could you do this?
How could you leave it all to me?

You were alive all this time.
You should've called the kids.

Who are you? Hey, what are you doing
to my husband?

What did you just say?
Is he Gong Gi... Gong Gi Cheol?

Let go of me.

- Who on earth is Gong Gi Cheol?
- It's not you? It's really not you?

I told you, he's not!
You crazy old lady!

I'm so sorry.

Is "sorry" meant to fix everything?
You won't get away with this!

We're going to the police station,
right now!

Come on.
Unbelievable. This is ridiculous.

(Onjeong Police Substation)

She said it was a mistake, ma'am.

Please, for my sake, just let it go.

But how can someone not
recognize their own husband?

You see, her husband...

left home 30 years ago,
so she can't recognize his face...

Now, I see why he left.
What a crazy old bat.

No, she's not a crazy person.

- She's Onjeong Market's pharmacist.
- Look.

Please come to my pharmacy.

I'll treat your scrapes
and give you some medicine.

Forget it.
This is just unbelievable.

Just my luck!

Honey, let's go.

- Yes, thank you so much.
- All right, take care.

- Grandma!
- Mom.

Why did you all have to come?
Chief, I'm sorry.

It's no trouble at all.

I'll make sure
this never happens again.

Mom, did you mistake someone
for Dad again?

This time,

I was so sure it was your father.

Everything's been smoothed over.
You should take her home now.

Okay, head on home.

My goodness, Mom.
You've really taken it up a notch.

I know your grudge against Dad,
but why did you hit the guy?

And you choked him, too? Why?

Just be quiet, and let's go.

Grandma, from now on,
let's go on your walks together.

Forget it.

(Police)

- Chief?
- Yes?

What about him leaving 30 years ago?
He just ran away?

No, wait. After that long,
wouldn't he be a missing person?

You're new here,
so you wouldn't know the story.

What's the story?

- It's complicated.
- Come on. What is it?

I get it.
They must've had a bad fight.

Now that you're in Onjeong,
you'll find out soon enough.

Just go on patrol.

Yes, sir.

Man, what was that about?

(Onjeong Market)

(Onjeong Market
Merchants' Association)

Like I said, give her a refund.

- I already told you I can't.
- Good grief.

And why not?
This is completely ridiculous!

Give me a break.

Director Yang Dong Ik
of the Sunny Korean Medicine Clinic.

Give her the refund, please.

Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic's
Director Gong Jeong Han.

That's not very fair of you.
No refund.

For goodness' sake.
I keep saying I'm fine.

See? She says she's fine.
Why butt in and demand a refund?

Practice with a conscience for once,
will you?

This old woman collects cardboard
to get by.

You charged her
380 dollars for medicine?

That's just unconscionable.

She came in sick, I examined her,
and I wrote a prescription.

The patient agreed to it,
so what's the problem?

- Goodness, I did agree to it.
- But...

- Please, don't fight.
- She said you hid the details.

That's because she has poor eyesight
from diabetes, so it was pointless.

You still should've asked.

Why don't you stay out of this?

- "You?" What's with the attitude?
- What? Attitude?

- Hey, Gong Dae Han!
- "Hey?" Did you just call me "hey?"

- Anyway...
- Yes, I said "hey."

- "Hey?" Really?
- You call this practicing medicine?

- Hey! You get over here!
- What's your problem?

- Get lost.
- How many others did you rip off?

- You're a total crook.
- Hey! How dare you...

- What are you, a thug?
- What? Have you lost your mind?

- Are you a gangster making threats?
- Whatever.

How much money
do you think you can make like this?

- What are you, a thug?
- What? Have you lost your mind?

- Are you a gangster making threats?
- Whatever.

- I can't with this guy.
- Just go.

What's all this commotion about?

- Get lost!
- What? Wait a minute.

- Weren't they at the substation?
- Hey!

You don't need to break it up.

What?

You must be the new officer,
so you probably don't know.

Those two families always fight.
It's childish, so leave them be.

But why?

That's it. I've had enough!
Give her the refund now!

- You're shameless! This medicine...
- What? Seriously?

- I said give her a refund, now!
- I said no! I won't say it again.

That's enough! I've had it!
I'm leaving! Just let me go!

No, ma'am, wait!
Get your refund first, Ms. Park!

- What?
- You darn punk.

- Did you just call me a punk?
- Yes, I did. So what?

Did you just call him a punk?
Don't cross the line.

You're the ones
who crossed the line first.

- Why is everyone acting like this?
- Hey!

You take the hard-earned money
from people on public assistance...

just to remodel your clinic,
you money-grubbing snob.

Playing the righteous doctor
while your clinic is going under?

You still act all high and mighty!
You hypocrite!

You're just a flashy, noisy Bucket.

Hey! I told you
not to call me "Bucket," didn't I?

My name is Yang Dong Ik!

Bucket. Clang, clang, clang. Bucket!

- Will you shut your mouth?
- Bucket.

- I said, my name is Yang Dong Ik!
- Clang, clang, Bucket.

- Bucket. Oh, no!
- My gosh.

- Dad!
- Dad, my clothes got all wet.

Stop it!

Man, my pants are soaked.
Good grief.

- That son of a...
- Bye, Bucket.

So that's what this is.

The wife of the grandfather
from this clinic...

and the husband of the grandmother
who's the hospital's pharmacist...

They fell for each other and ran off
in the middle of the night.

Thirty years ago.

So that's why their kids are always
at each other's throats.

There's a lot more to it than that.
You'll find out in due time.

They're famous in this market
for being sworn enemies.

I see.

Famous sworn enemies.

- Can I take a look?
- No, you can't.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

(Pharmacy)

Why is he always so extra?
Who does he think he is, so nosy?

Is he taking herbal medicine
behind my back or something?

Has he been drinking human blood
like a vampire?

He never ages,
and he's so full of energy.

I know. I keep saying we should move
the clinic to the apartment complex.

Why did we waste all this money
on remodeling?

As if a high-end clinic like this
can survive in a traditional market.

You know
Dad is dead set against moving.

Your wife went to the clinic heads'
wives' meeting, didn't she?

I know. I'm just making sure
that's really where she went.

She's been with us for over
15 years. You still suspect her?

Afraid she'll leave with someone,
like our mom or Eun Bin's mom did?

(Sunny Korean Medicine Clinic)

- Where are you? Send a proof shot.
- This is delicious.

- It's delicious and so clean.
- Really?

- I'll bring the kids next time.
- You should.

- It tastes so simple and clean.
- Isn't it so good?

This is so good.

My husband recently got an offer
to franchise his clinic,

- and I'm not sure what to do.
- What's to think about? Look at us.

The moment we changed our sign,
our bookings doubled.

You can't underestimate
brand recognition.

What about you guys? Not interested?

It must be tough
with the regulars out in the sticks.

It's not tough at all.

We actually just expanded.

We're having a grand reopening.
Please come by if you have time.

Oh, so this is why
you wanted to get together.

By the way, did you get
something done to your face?

You know I was blessed
with natural beauty.

I guess you forgot I was crowned
Miss Dolsan Gat Kimchi.

That's right. You were.

And you met Director Yang
when he judged the pageant, right?

Yes. Oh, my dear husband.

I'm the one who made the first move
and snagged him, you know.

But every time I see you,

you're decked out from head to toe
in designer brands.

With the money my husband
works himself to the bone for,

I feel bad about buying
even a pair of socks.

Me, buy this?
My husband buys it all for me.

I guess that's the perk of being
the second wife to a rich man.

You've got to enjoy it...

Oh, sorry.

That just came out with no filter.

It's because you're old.

They say when you get old,
you just say whatever comes to mind.

Please, eat.

Yes, hello.
Did you check the photo I sent?

Look, I specifically requested
a brand-new item.

It's unacceptable for the bag
to be scratched up like this.

I was too busy to return it,
so I just used it this time.

But if this happens next time,
I'm taking my business elsewhere.

What?

Eun Bin, what are you doing?

Can't you tell?
I'm packing a lunchbox.

I know,
but why are you the one packing it?

I'm taking it to someone.

Who?

It's not like you'd know them.
Why do you keep asking? So annoying.

Seriously...

- Hey! Where are the beef patties?
- The patties? You ate them.

What, they're all gone?

- Why?
- Don't ask why. Just make more.

Make what? You want me to make
beef patties now?

Why are you making me repeat myself?

- Fine, I'll make them. Just wait.
- Seriously. Make three.

Gosh, that's a lot. You'll get fat.
What if you get a double chin?

I told you! They're not for me!
Gosh, seriously.

Okay, fine.
I'll make them. Just wait.

Why can't you just do what I ask?
You talk so much. It's so annoying.

- All right.
- Stop touching my face!

Seriously...

Unbelievable.

Woo Jae!

What is it now?

Ta-da!

- What are you doing?
- You're studying for your boards,

so I'm playing
the devoted girlfriend.

But I'm not your boyfriend.

Try these short rib patties.
They're amazing.

If our grandparents and parents
found out about this,

they'd all have a heart attack.

Exactly.

Doesn't that make our story tragic?
We're just like Romeo and Juliet.

That only works
if Romeo actually loves Juliet.

Eun Bin, I've told you.
I only see you as a little sister.

Come on, you're just pushing me away
because you can't date right now.

Besides, our families' feud
is our parents' business.

If your grandfather catches you,
he'll rip all your hair out.

He wouldn't.

Father,
shouldn't you have some lunch?

Forget it!

Even if you have no appetite,
have a bite so you don't waste away.

If I waste away, I'll die. So what?
Why live any longer at my age?

Please don't say that. Come on out
when you get hungry, okay?

No, I said I don't want any!

Dad has a closet full of snacks.
You know that.

I know, but he only eats junk food.

I swapped them for healthy ones,
and he yelled at me so much.

He threw a huge fit,
and then went to the market...

and restocked it
with all sorts of junk again.

Aren't you going to eat?

I already had brunch, remember?

Right.

So that's why there's no good food.
You already had something nice.

What? There's no good food?

You've practically
licked the plates clean.

And I thought
you were always on a diet.

You call what you just ate a diet?

You love salt,
and you eat too much and too late.

You'll never lose the weight
if you keep eating like that.

Can we eat out for lunch sometimes?
Must you always come home to eat?

Why? The clinic is
just around the corner.

Please.
You just come home to check on her.

What? I'm not checking up on her.

All couples do this. Didn't you know
they all use tracking apps now?

What are you talking about?
Go ask any couple on the street.

Nobody does that.

Who cares what other people do?
As long as it works for us.

Right. What a perfect couple.
Live happily ever after.

Hey, don't be like that.
You should do it, too.

You should install a tracking app
on your husband's phone.

He might lie about going to work
and go to an arcade, you never know.

Tell him to stop messing around
with stocks or pyramid schemes.

I'm kicking you both
out of this house.

He's not like that anymore.
He's been working so hard lately.

Fine. Save your money and move out
while you're still mooching off us.

What do you mean, "mooching?"

As long as our father is alive,
this is my home too.

If you're going to stay,
at least wash your own dishes.

You have no shame.

I help out at the clinic,
but your wife does nothing.

My wife doesn't just sit at home.
She does a lot around here.

And it's not like I'm making you
work for free. I pay you a salary.

And you don't contribute a dime
to the household expenses.

How many years
have you been this shameless?

Come on, honey, stop.
It's only until Hyun Bin comes back.

They could use Hyun Bin's room
until he gets back.

Hyun Bin is moving back?

Did you hear from Hyun Bin?

No.

That kid... He's the eldest son,

and he's past the age
to get married.

How long will he keep
wandering around?

(International Airport Information,
Duty Free, Customs)

Hello, nice to meet you.

Hi.

- Great day to arrive in Korea.
- Yes.

Yes.

Please take me to this address.

It's 298-2 Sunbok-ri, Gopyeong-eup,
Ganghwa-gun.

Okay.

Smells like Korea.

I've really missed
this murky, smoggy air.

Looks like you were away
on a long trip.

Not a trip. I was studying abroad.

You know Argentina?
The soccer powerhouse.

Right, yes.

I lived in a city called Palermo.

It's kind of like the Beverly Hills
of Buenos Aires.

It's a vibrant hub of fashion, art,
and fine dining.

I see.

I'm just back in Korea
for a little while.

Just for about a year.
Short but intense.

Because someone is desperately
looking for me.

Guess who?

Who could it be?

I'm not telling.

One second.

What?

Vice President.

You made it?

I'll text you the hotel address.
Get some rest.

I'll head over after work.
Meet me in the lobby tonight.

I have somewhere to be first.

I'll contact you when I'm back,
okay?

(Hwangbo Hye Su, Vice President,
Strategic Planning Division)

(Taehan Group)

- Who's up first today?
- Team Manager Gong Ju Ah.

Oh, the one from medical school?

Let's get a full shot of the outfit,
not just the coat.

Yes, got it.
I'm getting nervous, too.

Ms. Gong, the VP is here.

All right, today's brand is FG
from the Taehan Group!

And for a special treat today...

So, she has to be number one
in sales today, or she's out, right?

Yikes, that's so nerve-racking.

Please welcome her.

Yes, we at FG have poured our hearts
into preparing this SS collection,

and I'm so happy to be able
to present it to you myself.

Ju Ah is so photogenic.
She looks gorgeous.

You're gorgeous, too.

This season's concept is
"Heritage and Modernity."

Then, why don't you tell us
about the outfit you're wearing?

Yes, of course.

It's a sporty look, pairing a skirt
with this very vibrant jacket.

Wow, that's incredibly practical.

Yes, the jacket is especially great
because it has a zipper on the side,

which makes it incredibly easy
to put on and take off.

Could you show us how it works?

- Of course.
- Great.

So you just unzip it like...

See? It's very simple.
You just unzip it...

What's wrong with her?

- What's she doing?
- Oh, no.

Just take your time and pull it up.

Oh, my!

Oh, no! My goodness.

Dr. Han! You must see this!
It's a wardrobe malfunction.

Her jacket ripped! They said
she's the team lead. My gosh.

- How humiliating.
- Oh, no!

- I can't watch. This is awful.
- I feel so bad for her.

(Today's Home Shopping
Wardrobe Malfunction)

Gosh, I'm so embarrassed
I could die.

Wow, how am I ever
going to live this down?

Ju Ah.

Goodness.

Hey, are you okay?

Did yours go okay?

You didn't mess up, did you?

No.

- I'm sorry.
- What are you sorry for?

What am I going to do?
I think it's all over social media.

How on earth did this even happen?
I just don't get it.

Try not to let it get to you.

Oh, man.

This is killing me.

Where the heck is he?

Sir!

There he is.

Sir!

And who might you be?

In Episode 531 of "I Am Wild,"

you took some winter-dried greens,
pork, baby potatoes, and carrots,

threw them on a cast-iron lid,
and boiled them...

to create your famous
radish green curry over rice.

You're Mr. Bae Bong Nam, aren't you?

Yes, I am, but...

I can't believe it.

It's such an honor to meet you, sir.

Thank you.

Thank you, Lord!

Let me just put this over here.

The apples go at the end...

And over here...

- Seon Hae.
- Yes?

Where are the daughters-in-law?
Why are you doing all this alone?

What do you mean alone, Uncle?
I'm here. Woo Jae, too.

Then where's your wife?

This is just ridiculous.

Hui Gyeong has work.
You know she's at the salon.

Mom will be here soon.
She's busy with work, you know.

And Jeong Han?

Where is the eldest son?
Why are you starting without him?

Uncle, it's still early.
Why are you getting so worked up?

But dear,
why isn't Hui Gyeong here yet?

I actually told her
to come a little later.

I'll go get her now.

I'll go get Dad.

- I'll be right back. You go ahead.
- Okay.

- Dae Han.
- Seong Mi.

Go on inside.

Uncle's been here for a while,
making a scene, asking for everyone.

- See you in a bit.
- Okay.

Mom, you didn't see Dad
on your way here, did you?

- Why? Isn't he home?
- No. I'll go get him.

Good grief.

Dad!

Where could he be?
He's not even answering his phone.

(Paramedics)

BP's 80 over 50.
His pulse is dropping.

It's likely a myocardial infarction.
I suspect it's the anterior wall.

He needs a coronary angiography.
Get him to a hospital right now.

- Got it.
- Right.

Sir. I'm right here with you.

We've contacted your children,
so please don't worry.

Just try and relax.

The person you're trying to reach
is unavailable...

Why isn't he picking up?
Where did he go now?

(Neungi Mushroom Chicken Soup)

(Dr. Han Seong Mi)

(Isulro Soju)

Excuse me.

(Isulro Soju)

Sir, can we get another bottle
of soju over here?

Excuse me?

Soju.

- Thanks.
- Sure.

What is it?

You just look really familiar.

I doubt that.
This is my first time here.

Yes, me too.

You don't work here?

I'm so sorry.

No worries.

But still...

You just look so familiar.

Did you see
that home shopping thing?

- What?
- That viral wardrobe malfunction.

Is that what you're thinking of?

What?

People are so mean.
As if they never make mistakes.

Something like that is a disaster,
isn't it?

When something like that happens
to someone,

can't people just
look the other way?

But no, they have to go
and immortalize it online,

and tear that person down
just to get a kick out of it?

Seriously, some people
have zero compassion.

The person it happened to...

could be so humiliated
they want to die, you know?

- Right.
- So...

please just pretend
you don't recognize me.

You can do that much for me,
can't you?

Okay.

(Habi Hair Salon)

What?

My honey's not at the shop.

I'm thinking of growing it out.

- You'd look pretty either way.
- This is my hair without bangs.

(Our Deepest Condolences)

Wait.

- Alone? Where's Hui Gyeong?
- What?

Well... What about Jeong Han?
He's still not here?

No. We can't reach him,
and he's not at the clinic.

Forget it.
Let's just start without them.

I'm heading out.

Why are you leaving already?
Please wait. I packed you some food.

There's no need.

Oh, Jeong Han.

Honey.

- I'm here.
- Jeong Han.

What took you so long?
Why didn't you answer your phone?

Well, it's just...

Are you...

Have you been drinking?

Yes, I... I had a little to drink.

Of all the nerve...

Now, I've seen everything.

Seon Hae! Is this how
you raised your children?

Uncle!

Mom is too old for you
to be lecturing her on parenting.

Dae Han.

This little brat...

You're going to
talk back to me, too?

I'm glad I didn't bring my family.
I didn't want them to see this mess.

So what if one's a doctor
and the other has a Ph.D.?

This is what happens
when kids grow up without a father.

That's not it at all.

- What do you mean?
- He's the one who walked out on us!

What did you say?

What's gotten into everyone?
Stop it, all of you.

Ever since Dad left,
Mom has been all alone.

She cared for Grandfather
until the end, provided for us,

and has spent her life
raising her own grandchildren.

She endured all those years
completely on her own.

Dad's the one who had an affair
and left home.

- Why are you taking it out on Mom?
- Had your mother been a good wife,

my brother never would've left
for another woman!

Uncle! Mom, that's it.
We're not doing this memorial.

Why hold a memorial for Grandfather
when his own son doesn't even care?

Why should you be humiliated for it?
And another thing.

Let's just consider our father dead.
Darn it.

Fine. Good idea, you brat.

You're right.
He'd be better off dead somewhere.

If I were him,
I wouldn't visit this madhouse!

Gosh, I can't even with this...

Honey, I was waiting outside.

I came in since your uncle left.
Smart, right?

Hey. Did your uncle
make you angry, sweetie?

Where on earth were you drinking
to show up and act like this?

I booked an appointment
for Mr. Go at a big hospital.

But he missed his appointment
and wasn't answering his phone.

What are you even talking about?
Is this about a patient again?

So I rushed over to his house
to check on him.

And what?
Did he drop dead or something?

You... How can you be so...

What? What did I do?
Are you blaming me for this, too?

Gosh, forget it.

How could you?

How can you just ignore your family
and do whatever you want?

You dump everything on my mom
and live however you want, too!

What?

I'm so sick of you.

Do you even know
what my life is like out there?

Do you have any idea
what my life is like?

I regret this so much.

I truly regret marrying you.

Honestly, if it weren't for Ju Ah,
I never would have married you.

Hey, the feeling is mutual.
Darn it...

Whenever my mom and dad fight,

they always say the same thing.

"If it weren't for Ju Ah,"

"I never would've married you."

Ever since I was a little kid.

even if I pulled the covers
over my head...

and plugged my ears
as tight as I could,

those words...

would pierce through the covers,
through my ears,

and stab me right in the heart.

(Gaetdali Beach)

Gosh, what is she doing now,
worrying me like this?

No, wait.

She asked me
to pretend I don't know anything.

I...

often felt like I was someone...

who wasn't needed in this world.

My existence...

wasn't the fruit of their love,
but just a mistake!

It was like...

I've spent my whole life
feeling abandoned, I guess?

- Stop drinking, honey.
- Leave me alone.

What are you so mad about?

We'll talk later.

Is something wrong?

No, it's nothing.

What is wrong with you, honey?
You're the one who said to be late.

Just shut up already.

Uncle.

You promised you'd treat me well
around your family if we moved in.

When we gave your brother
the deposit to move in here,

that one promise was all I had
to go on.

Hui Gyeong.

I am truly sorry about that.

- I'll get the money quickly and...
- Seong Mi.

If this is too hard for you,

you don't have to stay with me.

What?

- Dad?
- Hey.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Seong Mi and I...

We're splitting up.

Hey!

Her husband blew all their money,
so she's living with her family.

When your daughter's struggling,
shouldn't you be there for her?

You're the one who messed up.
Why are you taking it out on me?

- Should I do it here?
- Do what?

- Didn't you want my autograph?
- Gosh, how conceited.

- I heard that.
- When did you go to Seoul? A hotel?

The more I think, this is crazy.
