Original subtitles

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

(and filmed in a safe, supervised environment.)

This thistle rice is so fragrant and delicious.

This braised pollack. Su Im's grandmother dropped it off.

Nurse Oh, about the sign on the door...

Did you put up a sign saying we're closed this afternoon?

Yes, I did.

Dad, where's the conference today?

Yeouido. I'm just taking the subway.

Dr. Yang also took the afternoon off to go to City Hall.

Right. He went to the info session about revitalizing the market.

He's in total work mode these days.

It's good to see him working so hard.

That reminds me. Did you hear about the clinic manager's husband?

He's going to Saudi Arabia for work, apparently.

- All of a sudden? - Yes. It was very last-minute.

I think he was supposed to leave today.

I wonder when Seong Mi will be done with her taping today.

Right. She pulls all-nighters, filming for two straight days.

I should have made her eat. She needs strength for the shoot.

I know.

You're dead! Only one of us is walking away from this.

- Stop it! - I'll kill you both!

- I'm going to kill you both today! - Stop it!

My goodness! What do I do?

Oh, no. What do I do?

Hey!

- Are you all right? - Mother, are you okay?

Stepmom, are you crazy? Why did you hit her?

- No, that's not what happened... - This is a disaster!

- What should I do? - I'll take her to the hospital.

- Seriously... - What...

Father! Oh, no! My goodness.

I'm off, Grandma.

Okay. Don't study too hard. Make sure you eat well, okay?

- Okay. - Please help us!

My goodness, what is going on? What's wrong?

Mom.

- What is going on? What happened? - Oh, my gosh!

- Honey! - Seong Mi!

- I'm okay. - Let's get you inside, quick!

- My goodness. - What... What happened?

Was it an accident?

Okay. Your pupils are symmetrical, and there's no bleeding.

Are you seeing flashes of light? How do you feel?

If you're seeing flashes, we must go to the ER for an exam.

It hurts, but I don't have any other symptoms.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yes, my vision's blurry. I guess it's because of the shock.

- I'm fine otherwise, really. - So it was an accident, Seong Mi?

My goodness, what on earth happened?

Why won't you say anything? This is so frustrating.

- Well, it's just... - I'm so sorry.

Dr. Han was hit by my stepmom.

- What? - What?

The thing is...

My uncle and Woo Jae's aunt were having an affair,

so my uncle... No, my aunt and Woo Jae's aunt...

They were fighting, so my stepmom and Dr. Han tried to stop them...

Hey.

Who did you just say was involved?

Wait a minute. Why isn't anyone else shocked?

Am I the only one just hearing this? Did you all already know?

You knew about this?

No.

Seong Mi.

We had pork cutlets together, and now we're having some coffee,

so I feel like I'm on top of the world.

Are you really sure about this?

Are you asking if I'm confident I can date you,

even with our families as sworn enemies?

Would I have confessed if I weren't?

My gosh. It's not going to be easy.

Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me.

Are we...

official as of today?

What terrible timing. Who is this?

Let me just get this, then I'll give you my answer.

Seriously. Hey, Woo Jae. What's up? Is something wrong?

What? What do you mean Mom got hurt? Why?

- She was hit by the director's mom? - What?

Okay, I'm hanging up.

What's going on?

They found out everything. Looks like our parents had a fight.

- Gosh, seriously. - No way...

Yes, stepmom.

What? Grandfather's in the ER? Why?

Okay. I'll head home after work.

What happened to your grandfather?

It seems he witnessed the whole thing.

He got emergency treatment and is on his way home now.

This is unreal...

How's your mother? Is she badly hurt?

I'm not sure.

Let's hurry home.

I'm so sorry about this.

Well, I don't think makeup can cover this...

Of course. Yes, I'm all right.

Okay. Again, I'm very sorry.

Luckily, they had enough footage, so they told me to take the day off.

Honey.

Seriously, how could you hide this from me?

It's about our family. Why didn't you tell me?

Do you think I'm that...

What, am I not part of this family? Why are you making me the bad guy?

And you're supposed to be an expert on family matters.

When a problem like this came up, your answer was to hide and lie?

Gosh, I'm sorry. I am.

It's just... I'm so furious, I feel like I'm going to burst.

Let it all out.

I'll listen to everything.

I know how you feel...

You feel hurt and betrayed. I understand.

But for what it's worth, I was worried about both of you.

I didn't want to see you and your brother get hurt.

I know.

I was trying to avoid bringing up the trauma from 30 years ago.

Because the memory of that suffering is still so vivid.

I was afraid that if rumors spread, we'd go through all that pain again.

That's why I deliberately hid it from everyone.

I'm sorry.

I think I would've hidden it, too.

How was she supposed to tell me?

Mom.

You know, back then... When Dad disappeared,

I'd only ever thought about it from my perspective as a son.

But now that I'm in your shoes, Mom...

I realize how much harder it must have been for you...

than we could ever have imagined.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Why did you have to learn what that feels like?

You know, I've lived my life so I have nothing to be ashamed of.

I had to live that way...

so people wouldn't blame me for what happened.

And I didn't want you boys...

to hear people say, "No wonder your father ran off."

So I always nagged you to live an upright life,

even after you got older.

But for this to happen to you...

I just don't understand it.

Mom.

I'm okay.

I'm truly sorry, Father.

I made the whole thing up.

You have every right to be furious with me.

When did you find out?

- Pardon? - Yong Gil and Dae Han's wife.

When did you find out about their affair?

Oh, that's...

- I... - Father.

What are you talking about?

Honey.

Yong Gil did what?

Who did he have an affair with?

Honey, it's just...

Unbelievable.

I'm going to kill them!

You'd better stop him. Before he does something crazy.

Honey.

My husband?

Of course, he has no idea.

Okay, I get it. Then I'll see you tomorrow, darling.

Bye!

I had no idea her "darling" was my husband.

Yang Dong Suk!

What the heck is going on?

Your husband cheated on you with Gong Dae Han's wife? For real?

- Yes. - Wow! I'm seriously losing my mind.

- What a complete disgrace! - Honey...

What were you doing? How could you let him do it?

What were you doing while that jerk was seeing her?

- Is that my fault? - Then whose fault is it?

Then I guess it was Dad's fault that our mom had an affair and left.

Was it your fault you got divorced when your ex-wife...

- cheated on you? - Hey!

Honey, please stop. We can't fight among ourselves.

Why did you bring trash like him into this family?

- Why marry that jerk at all? - You told me to!

You said you had to remarry, so you had to get your sister out.

Just like you sent Hyun Bin to study abroad,

you pushed me to get married and get out of the house!

Dong Suk.

It's not like I had great prospects, did I?

Our mom ran off with the man who lived next door.

So the guy I was dating dumped me, and I was turning into a spinster.

And you have the nerve to say that?

Hey! Don't you realize how critical this time is for me?

And now, on top of everything, our families are tangled up again!

Do I really have to hear this now?

- Honey... - How is that my fault?

How is any of that my fault?

Right. It's not your fault, is it?

How could this possibly be your fault?

Honey.

- Hey, watch it! You're annoying. - Sorry. My bad.

Seriously...

That jerk?

So it was him.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

Yes.

Seong Mi.

Are you feeling any better?

I'll see how I feel tomorrow.

You should've told me everything. Why did you go get hurt like this?

I feel so terrible about this.

Dae Han, I'm okay.

Where did you find Hui Gyeong?

And what are you going to do with that information?

I just want to ask her a few things.

Ask what? What is there left to ask?

I'm just curious how she could do this to our family.

And...

I want to kill that jerk.

Dae Han.

I'll find her myself.

Hey, Dae Han. Stop. Hey!

Hey, let me go!

- I'll handle this. - What?

You stay out of it!

- Why are they acting like this? - I said, let go of me!

- Gong Dae Han, are you serious? - Let go!

- Grandma, please rest. I'll check. - Where do you think you're going?

Where else would she be? She's in Ganghwa! Right, Seong Mi?

- Hey! - Please don't, Dae Han.

- Let go of me! - What's wrong with everyone?

Woo Jae. Right, you went there with her too, didn't you?

- You know where they are, right? - Uncle.

Woo Jae, please. You must tell me. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

- Tell me! - Woo Jae, help me hold your uncle.

- Let go! Don't touch me! Let go! - Uncle...

- Uncle, please. - What's this?

- Let go! - That jerk, Bucket, I swear...

- Let go! - Don't answer it.

- Hey, why not? - Don't answer it!

Come on, why...

- Darn it. Hey! - For the last time, let go of me!

No answer? Are they ignoring my calls?

Darn it. Hey, Gong Jeong Han! Gong Dae Han!

Get out here, you two!

- I think he's right outside. - Come out!

That jerk, I swear.

Stay here. I'll handle this. Just stay put.

Where do you think you're going? You stay here. I'll go.

- Just stay here. I said I'm going. - I'll handle this. Hey!

- I told you to stop! - Don't you go out there!

Hey, open this door!

Hey, Gong Jeong Han! Gong Dae Han! Open the door!

I said, open up!

Dad!

- Stop it! What are you doing? - What are you doing here?

Hey, you. You're their daughter.

- Can you open the door? Let me in. - And do what once you're inside?

Listen, I have to talk to them.

- Get out of my way! - No, wait...

Hey, Gong Dae Han! Gong Jeong Han!

- Get out here, you cowards! - This is insane.

- Wait, Dad... - Get out here right now!

- I'll let him in, Mom. - My goodness.

- Okay. - Dad, what are you doing?

I said, let go!

Get out here, you cowards!

He's coming in with Ju Ah.

Coming in? Who said he could? The nerve of that man! Unbelievable!

Gong Jeong Han! Gong Dae Han!

You owe me an explanation.

You jerk!

How dare you barge into my house like you own the place?

I'm so sorry. I tried to get him to leave, but...

He's a director at my company. Dr. Yang's son.

Oh, I'm Yang Hyun Bin. It's been a while.

So what do you want?

- Where did you hide your wife? - What did you just say?

- Where did you hide your wife? - How am I supposed to know?

Dad!

Answer me, now!

Then you tell me.

You jerk.

You barged in like this 30 years ago and harassed my mother,

and now you're pulling the same stunt again?

Right. So why does your family always start this nonsense?

You jerk!

You're the one who brought that woman into this neighborhood...

and caused this whole mess!

- This is all your fault! - How dare you talk to me like that!

What? How is this my fault?

Why do you always see us as the villains,

and not as victims, just like you? Why can't you?

Why do you always have to come here and act like a thug? Why?

- What did you say, you punk? - Hey! Watch your mouth!

Look what your wife did. I thought you came to apologize.

- What? What did you say? - Mom.

Hey, Seong Mi. Please, I'm begging you.

Just tell me. Please? Where are they?

- I'm begging you! Tell me! - Gosh, seriously...

- Let's go, Dad, please. I'm sorry. - Hey, get off me!

- Dad, come on! - Let go of me, you brat!

- He's an animal. Unbelievable! - Hey!

Good grief!

Dad.

Let's go inside.

I need to blame someone.

It's the only way I feel like I can survive.

If it becomes my fault,

I don't think I could bear it.

Go inside and check on your grandfather and your aunt.

Why? Are you going back to their house?

No.

It's just... I'm feeling a little suffocated.

- I'll just sit here for a minute. - Wait. I'll stay with you.

I want to be alone.

I just need to catch my breath before I go inside.

But...

Auntie.

Ji Hu's coming from the academy. Are you going to stay like this?

Hello? Auntie.

You were just going to leave me and run off like that, darling?

Darling! Are you okay?

Oh, boy. You'll ruin your pretty face.

See? I told you to just wait patiently.

I thought you were ditching me for Saudi Arabia.

As if I'd ever do that.

I was told not to call you around my kid, so I couldn't.

Why?

Hey. Does this look like Saudi Arabia?

Dong Ik! Spare me, please!

You jerk!

You scumbag.

You jerk!

What did you promise my sister? You said you'd make Dong Suk happy.

- Did you promise me or not? - I did.

And what happened? You worked her to the bone...

and made her nurse your sick mother until the day she died, didn't you?

Then you blamed her for years...

for not being able to conceive, until Ji Hu was born.

You punk. You filthy jerk!

And now, you abandon your family? How dare you?

- Please, Dong Ik! Have mercy! - Get up!

Are you even human? Are you?

I still treated you like family! A good-for-nothing troublemaker...

I gave you chance after chance! And yet,

you dare pull a stunt like this? Hey!

- Do you take our family for a joke? - No! I swear...

If you didn't, then how could you do this?

And with that woman, of all people?

You jerk!

Today...

Only one of us is walking away from this!

You!

- Stop hitting him! - My family! Who do you take us for?

- Darling! - It's time you suffered a little.

You evil jerk. You worthless scumbag!

Oh, man. I'm too ashamed to face my niece and nephew.

It's okay, Uncle.

He won't come back, will he?

I dare him to. I'll tear him to shreds.

He won't.

I told him where they are.

Hwangpo-ri 37-12, Ganghwa County. The hair salon on the first floor.

Why did you do that?

I have a bad feeling something's going to happen.

I was going to talk to them first.

And what good would that have done?

Honey.

You weren't answering your phone. Where have you...

What?

Where on earth have you been?

Yong Gil.

I had to go knock some sense into him.

And?

Feel better now?

No.

How's my father?

Hyun Bin's with him, taking care of him.

And how's Dong Suk doing?

She's holed up in her room and won't eat anything.

She won't even open the door.

- What's everyone up to? - They're asleep. Why are you up?

How could I possibly sleep?

I know.

Here, I brought some water in case you were thirsty.

Thank you. I was just getting thirsty.

Grandma. Are you okay?

No.

I know this is a lot to ask, but...

we need you to hold it together.

If you fall apart,

we'll all fall apart, too.

You're right.

I should stay strong.

(Director Yang Hyun Bin)

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

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

- Officer Jung. - Hello.

Is the clinic open today?

No. We were supposed to do medical volunteering today,

but we decided to take the day off.

Then what brings you in, Nurse Oh?

I came in to finish the cleaning I couldn't get to yesterday.

- I'll let you get to it. - Okay, have a good day!

Give me that. Larceny is a violation of Criminal Code Article 329.

"A clash between the families erupts after the affair is exposed."

So you knew all along.

This horrible tragedy that's struck these rival families again.

It's not like I wanted to know.

Does anyone else know about this?

No. Just the chief and me.

- What a relief. This can't get out. - Understood.

Wait, but...

We should be fine, as long as you can keep it quiet.

- Really? - Yes.

Anyway, it's a secret.

It is a secret.

Do you think the doctor's eye will be okay?

Yes, I wonder.

Hey.

They'll hate us even more, right? More than they already did.

I'll be honest. Who could ever like our grandfather and our dad?

Even their wives couldn't stand them and ran off.

It's hopeless for us. We're doomed. Totally doomed.

I'm off.

What? Going to class? Hey, eat some breakfast first.

It's okay. I'm not hungry.

Come eat even if you don't feel like it.

Here.

How's your mom?

She's just staying in bed.

Well, her husband suddenly left for Saudi Arabia,

- so that would be hard on anyone. - Hey, I know everything.

That Dad had an affair and left home.

And you're this calm about it? Wow, you're something else.

- My brother cried every day. - Yes, a tough kid. A real man.

Hyun Bin. You won't take over the clinic, will you?

No. Please, I'm begging you to take it.

Look at this ambitious man. Go for it.

Hey, where's our stepmom?

She left early.

This early? Where did she go?

A new person may enter, but they will not be able to settle.

Anything you try to hold onto will slip away.

The energy of a fiery misfortune is deeply entangled with you!

Shaman,

then what can I do to prevent this misfortune?

Hold on. Let me ask the spirits.

I see something round.

Something round?

Round...

It looks like a ball.

A ball?

A ball?

Yes. Stay away from balls.

Oh, my.

The Gongs?

Yes, Father. I didn't say a word about that family,

but she pointedly told me to stay away from "balls."

Balls? What else could it mean but the Gongs?

Stepmom, that sounds like a bit of a stretch.

No, what happened 30 years ago is repeating itself.

This is no mere coincidence. This is clearly...

a warning from the heavens.

Gosh, this is going to scar. Seriously, what is this?

You sound just like a doctor.

How can you be joking right now?

That's my point.

No one does this without a grudge, right?

I could feel the pure malice in her touch.

No, come on.

She's not that bad of a person, is she?

Did you forget I was almost branded a homewrecker because of her?

Don't you think you should apologize to Dr. Han Seong Mi?

It looks like she was badly hurt. I know it was an accident, but...

Maybe...

I might have done it on purpose.

Sorry to disappoint you.

Why? Why would you do that?

It's because...

I really can't stand that woman.

Your father is my entire world.

But the man who means the world to me...

gets completely flustered whenever he's around her.

And you know, that just...

makes me so angry and jealous.

And so...

I hate that woman even more than your birth mother,

who gave you and Eun Bin life.

About what my stepmother did...

I'd like to apologize on her behalf.

Okay.

I'll pass that along to my mom.

This is all so difficult.

What happened to all that confidence about "rebranding" your family?

I guess I was just being overconfident.

This is why I gave up and went to study abroad back then.

It just brought all those memories back.

Hyun Bin.

Yes?

You know...

My grandma, my dad, and my mom. My uncle and my little brother.

All of my family.

I think I love them...

more than I ever realized.

I know.

And...

I...

I don't think my feelings for you...

are stronger...

than my love for my family.

Right now,

my family is already hurting so much.

I can't bring myself...

to hurt them even more.

Okay.

I appreciate your feelings,

and I'm sorry...

for turning you down.

No, I'm sorry for confessing...

and making things so hard on you.

(Ms. Na Seon Hae)

(Ms. Na Seon Hae)

Yes, Ms. Na.

It's been such a long time...

since we've sat face-to-face.

It really has.

How did it come to this?

And to think, you were the one...

who named my children.

I did.

And your husband named Dong Ik.

We used to make kimchi together every winter,

share meals of steamed pork and oysters,

and take trips to the creek every summer.

We all piled into a rented van...

to see the opening ceremony of the 1988 Summer Sporting Event.

That's right.

We all wore matching Hodori the Tiger shirts.

I never dreamed...

the same thing would happen to our kids.

For everyone's sake,

I suppose it's best...

if our families go their separate ways.

Yes.

This long bond between us... No, this twisted fate.

It's time we cut ties for good.

Mom, you want us to move?

What? Why should we? What did we do wrong?

If we had moved away sooner, this never would have happened.

No, Mom, that's not it. It was just a coincidence.

And there's no guarantee we won't get tangled up with them again.

Seriously? How could that happen? Unbelievable.

But we don't have anywhere to go right now.

I'll figure something out.

- I'll chip in. I can get a loan. - Now, hold on.

We haven't decided that we're moving.

They said they'd think about it, too.

Gosh, there's no way that jerk is moving.

Darn it.

I'm absolutely not moving.

You don't want to move either, do you, Dad?

The whole thing blew over quietly.

No one in town is talking about it.

But still,

I don't think I can work seeing that family every single day.

Then, couldn't you just find a new job?

Fine, do whatever you want. What say do I have in this?

I don't want to move or switch schools either.

Right. No one in town knows, so don't worry.

Everyone thinks your dad just went to Saudi Arabia.

Father, I completely agree that our families should separate, but...

I don't think us being the ones to leave Onjeong is the right move.

What about all the money we spent renovating the clinic?

Besides, Father, you know how hard he's been working lately.

He's just now winning over the people at the market.

We can't give up now.

It's not that we've decided to move.

We've simply agreed that both sides will think it over.

Did you talk to my dad about moving?

Yes, I suggested that we should make the Gong family move.

I'm going to make sure the Gongs leave Onjeong this time.

Yes, we should.

And when that happens,

you'll become the President of the Merchants' Association.

- You think so? - Of course.

Nothing's a safer bet than getting rid of the competition.

Honey, let's turn this crisis into an opportunity.

But I doubt Jeong Han's family will move.

We'll have to make them move, one way or another.

Leave it to me, honey.

Well...

This is a gift certificate for a spa.

If you get a treatment there,

it should help that bruise of yours fade faster.

- You hit me on purpose, didn't you? - Oh, my goodness! Of course not!

Really, you've got it all wrong.

I also included more than enough to cover any medical fees.

That won't be necessary.

I just put some ointment on it. The bruise will fade soon enough.

Please, I insist, Doctor. It's a small token of my apology.

I'll accept the gesture.

- Is that everything? - Wait. Actually...

I went to see a really gifted psychic.

She said that our two families are like oil and water.

You needed a psychic to tell you that?

To be honest,

I think it's for the best if your family moves.

Doctor, your clinic is in Seoul, and your daughter works in Seoul.

Also, wouldn't it be better...

for Dr. Gong to practice in Seoul as well?

The elders will decide, so let's just wait.

Doctor, please try to convince Dr. Gong.

We can't change the past, but shouldn't we prevent things?

I'm worried that if this continues, our kids will get tangled up in it.

- I'm just so worried. - That kind of thing...

will never happen.

I certainly hope not. I'm desperately hoping you're right.

(Taehan Group)

(Fantom)

I was wondering...

Have you heard any talk at home about moving?

I'm sorry, but let's not discuss personal matters at the office.

Right, Director.

Director.

Oh, Director.

Hello.

What's with him? Why isn't he joining us?

He was acting like that this morning, too.

Did you two have a fight?

Just eat.

As you may have heard,

we're considering Dr. Han Seong Mi to be the face of FG next season.

Before we make a formal offer,

I wanted to hear what our designers think.

Dr. Han Seong Mi?

But she doesn't have any modeling or brand sponsorship experience.

What are your thoughts, Mr. Park?

I'm a huge fan of hers.

I think she'd be a great fit for the mood of our next collection.

Exactly. Uniqueness gives a premium image,

so I think she's a great choice.

But why have you two been so quiet this whole time?

Did you two get in a fight?

Vice President, I apologize for bringing this up at work.

We tried our best to make things work,

but it just didn't pan out.

What? Why? What happened? Tell me. Come on.

We've decided to keep things strictly professional from now on,

so please treat us as such. We would appreciate it.

(Taehan Group)

You don't think the Director's mom hit your mom on purpose, do you?

When two people hate each other,

the truth doesn't really matter.

Man, this is going to make it tough for her to be our model.

She has to work with the Director, not just you, you know.

Right.

You look really upset, Ju Ah.

Gosh. Maybe it was better when I pretended not to know.

Hey,

this might sound a bit insensitive, but can I ask something?

Sure, go ahead.

So, which family is moving?

Wouldn't it be better if your family moved?

Your mom's clinic is around here, so it'd be great if you moved here.

If it were that simple, we would've moved already.

Oh, boy.

So, what do you think?

- Where did you get it done? - I got a haircut. Is it okay?

You have to tell me where that salon is.

Wow, your joints have gotten so much more flexible.

I see that. And no fluid buildup, either.

And you're in less pain, right?

Of course. I've been sleeping so well lately,

and I feel alive again.

Weren't you moving to the country? When is that?

- What? I've already moved. - Oh, really? Go to a closer clinic.

Why come all the way out here?

Honestly.

There are no clinics out there. This is the closest one.

Oh, right.

Yes, there aren't any others, are there?

Oh, goodness.

- Bye. - Get home safely.

- Okay, see you again. - Yes, of course.

Take care.

- Doctor. - Yes? What is it?

The patients know our 40th anniversary is coming up,

and they're planning a party.

- A party? - I couldn't help but overhear.

You know, like a surprise party?

I think they're planning one.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

Hey.

Don't insist on us moving just for my sake.

But are you really okay, having to face them every day?

I'll get used to it, I guess.

Then, how about you just transfer to a different clinic?

- Honestly, many clinics want you. - Oh, come on.

If I wanted to leave, I would've left a long time ago.

I'm not a doctor, but I want to carry on the family legacy...

and keep this clinic going just as much as you do.

So let's not do anything rash.

Besides, we can't afford to move anyway,

and it would just be hard on your wife.

You know what I mean, right?

I don't know anymore. Man, I don't know what to do.

Wow, how do you manage to look so dapper in everything?

- You look so handsome. - Gosh, but I'm getting nervous.

I think I need something to calm my nerves.

Honey, no matter what happens, don't get worked up.

And for the photos, make sure you're right in the center, okay?

This interview is basically your portfolio.

Don't worry. I've learned the practice questions.

Emphasize the Night Market Project and the self-service complaint desk.

Okay.

- Looking good. - You think so?

Let's get you a new outfit. You're always wearing dark colors.

When you're this handsome, no one cares about your clothes.

Did you prepare for the interview?

What's there to prepare? It's only real if I speak my mind.

Only amateurs need to practice. Right? Fools like Bucket.

I've always dreamed of serving the Merchants' Association.

The permanent market...

Man, look at that outfit. Are you off to a cabaret?

Hey, who even says "cabaret" anymore?

And what about you? Are you headed to a funeral?

Gosh, you look so drab. Go make real money in Seoul already.

You're one to talk. Stop putting on airs in this town.

- You should move. - Not a chance. You move.

On second thought, it suits you. You could tour cabarets nationwide.

Are you on a blind date? At least make an effort.

Some people succeed for a reason, buddy.

- Oh, hello. - Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

I'm Yang Dong Ik. I hold a key position at the association.

- Hello. - I'm Gong Jeong Han,

the President of the Onjeong Market Merchants' Association.

- Nice to meet you. - Likewise.

- Shall we begin the interview? - Yes.

You're new as president, Dr. Gong, but you're handling complaints...

and cleaning up the market. I hear you've had amazing results.

I wouldn't call them results. It's just my duty to the market.

He just gives the orders. I'm the one who does the legwork.

Is that so?

And I hear you're also preparing the Night Market Project?

Yes, the Night Market...

That's my campaign promise. I'm leading the project.

My, you two seem to be perfectly in sync.

I wouldn't call it "perfectly in sync."

He's very lacking and inexperienced,

but I'm leading the way and teaching him as we go.

Dr. Gong is just so naive and inflexible.

So I'm the one who provides the reality check.

Dr. Yang focuses only on tangible results,

so I'm the one who helps merchants and keeps the market grounded.

You two really are a dream team, aren't you?

I heard you two have been friends since childhood.

- No, we're not friends. - No, just classmates.

Strictly classmates.

From elementary school to college. So, yes, classmates.

- That's quite a special connection. - I guess you could say that.

Back in school, I was always the class president,

and he was always my vice president. Yes, that's right.

Hey, I was class president too, you know.

Hey, let's be real. I let you win back then.

Let me win? As if.

Hey, since we were kids, no matter what game we played,

I always beat you.

He's completely rewriting history.

- I always won. - Unbelievable.

You two certainly share a lot of memories.

I'm sure you have even more interesting stories.

We do.

Ma'am, do you happen to know his nickname?

Hey, don't. Don't you dare.

The Man in the Red Underwear.

I'm sorry?

Have you lost your mind?

He has a tendency to make things up. Please don't print that.

He once climbed the wall at Seodong Girls' High for a crush.

Hey, shut it.

But his pants ripped wide open, revealing his bright red undies.

Hey! They were red long johns!

I'm telling you, they weren't undies! Seriously.

That's even funnier. Same difference.

This is great.

You think that's funny? How about I tell one about our VP?

What story? There's nothing to tell. I wouldn't do that if I were you.

Well, our VP has a rather weak stomach.

- To this day, when he's out, - Hey. Will you shut your mouth?

- he can't go number two. - Stop it.

- Seriously... - On a class trip, he held it in...

- and let it go in his pants. - Hey!

He just pooped right in his pants.

Hey! You promised you'd take that to the grave.

Well, consider this your funeral.

No, back when I was a kid, I just misjudged a fart...

He can't tell a fart from...

Where did he go? Why isn't he here? We're going to be late at this rate.

My goodness.

Hi, Mr. Yang. Where are you? We have the buyers meeting today.

I'm on my way to the meeting. Make sure you're not late.

Yes, Mr. Yang. I understand.

What the... He could've warned me. Seriously.

Then again, it's not like he's my chauffeur.

What were you thinking, Ju Ah? I'm going to be late.

I've got to hurry.

Were you not aware of the meeting time?

I was, I'm so sorry. I thought we were going together.

I had other meetings outside the office.

I wasn't aware I had to report my every move to you.

You're absolutely right. I don't know what I was thinking.

Here you go.

By designing stores where customers can experience the brand's story,

we plan to reposition the brand to solidify its luxury image.

Could you tell us a bit about the key design elements?

As for the design details, our head designer at Taehan,

Ms. Gong Ju Ah, will be explaining.

Our FG premium line is characterized by its elegance and luxury,

as well as a free-spirited beauty that truly stands out.

The pattern is so intricate.

Yes. And if you look here,

this skirt is designed to sway like this with every movement.

When you see it on, you'll notice it creates a very unique silhouette.

I've worn it. It's not restrictive, so you feel very free, and yet...

Great work today. I'm going to head home from here.

Okay. See you, Mr. Yang.

She's a tough one, Gong Ju Ah.

I'm the only one who's a mess.

Cheers!

Look at you, Woo Jae. All grown up.

Asking your old uncle out for a drink.

What? Is that all you're having?

I can totally carry you home tonight if you get drunk.

I'll just wet my whistle.

If I drink too much,

there's no telling what I might do.

Uncle, are you sure you'll be okay not moving away from everything?

I hate the idea of the family moving because of me,

and I can't bear to watch my brother go through a hard time.

Excuse me, I'll have the beef ribs and a bottle of soju...

On second thought, never mind.

Uncle, what is it? Are you okay?

- Hey, give me some water. - Yes.

I have a feeling Dong Ik and his family aren't moving.

I had a feeling.

Mom, do you really have your heart set on moving?

Honestly, I'm on the fence about it.

I'm dying to move,

but we both know our financial situation.

And I'm worried about Seong Mi pushing herself too hard.

You don't want to move at all, do you?

It's not that I don't want to. It's that we can't.

And frankly, I feel bad you're taking on so much.

There are no other local clinics. What about the patients if we leave?

So... Mom.

Dae Han said he's fine with it, so should we just stick it out?

- Mom? - Hold on...

My goodness, Dae Han.

- Oh, my. - Hey, what's wrong with you?

- Sweetheart, what's wrong? - Gosh, it hurts.

He said his side is hurting a lot. I doubt it's acute appendicitis.

- Dad, hurry and take a look. - Okay. Lay him down first.

- Okay. - Get the door.

Hey, take a deep breath for me. Okay, one, two...

- Okay, right here... - Ouch, it hurts! Stop pressing.

Hey, shouldn't we take him to the ER?

No fever or rebound tenderness. I think it's just acute indigestion.

- He doesn't smell of alcohol. - He barely had anything to drink.

Mom.

Rub my tummy.

Seriously?

What brought this on all of a sudden?

- Hey, what is it? What's going on? - What is it?

The way I see it...

I don't think this is physical. I think he's just heartbroken.

What do you mean?

We ran into Eun Bin's aunt at the restaurant.

When he saw her, his chest tightened,

and then the stomach pain started.

So his psychological trauma is manifesting physically.

So it's psychogenic abdominal pain.

So the encounter with that person was the trigger, right?

Yes. If it continues, it can manifest as an organ disease.

And here he was, pretending like everything was fine.

What is it?

Meet me at the playground at 7 p.m. tonight.

What for?

We're deciding with a coin toss.

Decide what?

Who has to move.

What?

(Sunny Korean Medicine Clinic)

Shoot!

My goodness! Darn it...

Again.

Yes!

Aren't you heading home?

What are you doing?

You can go on ahead, Dad.

The greatest showdown in history is about to unfold tonight.

What are you talking about?

Our family's destiny rests on this single coin.

Father...

What the...

This thing's still stuck?

Hey.

Gong Jeong Han of the Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic.

Hey, Yang Dong Ik of the Sunny Clinic.

Are you really going to keep skipping study hall?

Gosh, whatever.

It's just so annoying. The other kids keep teasing me.

Who cares? Hey, even if you...

wear red underwear, you're still number one in school.

- They're long johns, not underwear! - Right. Whatever you say.

Anyway...

Onjeong Snack Bar?

What, why? What about your mom's spicy pork?

Hey, have you seen the new girl working at the snack bar?

In that case...

Let's flip a coin for it.

- Deal. - You're so going down.

You're dead meat.

All right.

Okay. One, two, three.

Okay. Nice! Yes! Dear Lord, thank you!

- I can do this. - Make him miss. Go wide.

Dear Lord. Please! Come on!

Yes!

Gong Jeong Han.

You're here.

- No do-overs. - Of course. Don't you back out.

- You throw first. - How are we doing this?

Best of five? Or best of three?

Real men don't do that. Let's just do sudden death.

Fine.

Oh, my.

Hey, that rock is still there.

I know, right?

I brought chalk to draw the line and everything.

So,

- the rules are the same as always? - Sure.

Closest to the rock wins.

Okay.

- Draw it straight. - I'm trying to pray here. Quiet.

- You're something else, really. - Shut it. You'll jinx me.

Yes! Did you see that? Did you see? It's crazy close.

You're annoyingly good today. Darn it.

- You nervous? - What the...

- No way! Miss! - I can do this.

- Fail! - I can do it. I can do it.

- Dear Lord! - Let's go!

- You will lose! - Let's go!

Here I go!

What the...

Hey, are you kidding me? What is this?

Hey, do-over.

I lost. I'm off.

- What? - I'll leave.

We're moving.

(Recipe For Love)

- Can we really afford to move? - Just trust me.

We have to postpone the launch of your solo show.

I heard you're having trouble moving because money's tight.

The model for our premium line...

Dr. Han Seong Mi? Pacu Nacho stopped her project.

- What? - She would've been the ideal model.

How could you let me down like this?

I'm surprised you're the one who came to see the house.

You should've kept your wife under control.

- Hey, what did you say? - Seeing her made you sick?

It's a stomachache. I'm getting an endoscopy tomorrow.

Mom, this means we can't move.
