Original subtitles

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

(and filmed in a safe, supervised environment.)

Hey, you got a minute?

Sure.

(Damga Charcoal Grill)

Wow, this BBQ place is popular. I hear it's very reputable, right?

Yes. The place is spotless. I wouldn't have to change a thing.

My dad and I will check it out later and sign the contract.

With Father?

You're not going with your boyfriend?

What are you talking about? I told you I don't have a boyfriend.

Oh, come on! I bet your boyfriend made this.

No! I made this myself.

Come on. Just give me your boyfriend's date of birth.

I'm going to see the shaman later about Hyun Bin anyway,

so I can see if you two are a good match.

Forget it. You're too much.

By the way, is it true Taehan's VP really likes Hyun Bin?

Do you think they have a chance?

I'm not a huge fan of Dr. Han Seong Mi,

but I do trust her. If she got the impression they were dating,

they probably are, right?

True. As an expert and psychiatrist, she'd know at a glance.

I hope Hyun Bin will settle down in Korea for good.

Anyone hearing you talk like that would think he's your own son.

What? He's like my own son.

The same goes for Eun Bin and Ji Hu.

Come on. Still, it's different than having a biological child.

You wouldn't know because you've never had children.

Why do I hear the cry of a newborn?

Because you raise another child,

you think you'll escape punishment...

for leaving your own flesh and blood?

A bond you have abandoned...

will always return to exact its price.

Mark my words.

(OnBike)

What?

Hold on a second.

Here, take my number.

That's okay. I'm not hurt.

I'm making it clear I gave you my number.

Shouldn't you be apologizing first?

- Excuse me? - You jumped out without looking.

Okay, after hearing that tone, I've changed my mind.

I'm going to need your contact info as well.

In case you try to report me for a hit-and-run later.

Give me your number.

Have you always lived your life being fooled?

There are many good people in this world.

That's really sad.

What did she just say to me?

Did you just bad-mouth me? Hey, you! Get back here!

Hey, you! Wait!

The nerve of that brat. An elder is speaking to her.

Unbelievable.

Mom.

It's barely gone down.

She buys such expensive stuff and is too cheap to use it.

It's a shame to let it go to waste. I should help her use it up.

What else does she have? Let's see...

What?

What's this?

What else did she hide in here?

- Yang Eun Bin! - My gosh! You scared me!

Are you using my makeup behind my back again?

I'm going to be on TV too. We should both look our best, right?

My stuff isn't right for your age. Instead of using mine,

- let's go to the spa together. - Really? Yes!

Wait, what's that? Why is it wrapped up so tightly?

Oh, this is just a soap set I got as a gift for the holidays.

Wow, that's some fancy wrapping for soap.

Gosh, what do I do?

Vice President.

Perhaps you can put your phone down during the meal.

It's just...

Isn't this hilarious? The "Just Roll Challenge."

(Just Roll Challenge)

I know, right? Raffling gift cards just for falling over...

It's such a novel idea.

How did you come up with an idea like this?

Exactly.

An official social media challenge to reenact your mother's fall.

Since it was a hot topic, I pitched a viral campaign.

"It won't rip even if you fall like that."

"The stretch is incredible."

"Taehan clothes are so durable." We're getting comments like that.

Oh, right.

But you did get your mother's permission, right?

Of course. She was happy and felt like a model.

Maybe I should give it a try. I can do front and back somersaults.

Sure.

I'm sure the executives would love that.

Whatever.

Is there anything fun going on?

Hey! Where are those two?

Ms. Gong and Mr. Park?

Director Yang's family and mine have made up.

- Really? - Yes. His mother helped me...

avoid disciplinary action, you know. So as a thank you, my grandmother...

invited them over for her birthday, and we worked things out.

Our fathers will be on "Human Theater" together.

- Wow. Hey, that's great news! - Right? It is, isn't it?

Go ahead and tattle to the VP again, and we'll see what happens.

I've been swamped lately, so I let it slide,

but tell the VP about my family one more time, and I'll kill you.

Okay, I get it. All right?

But promise to keep me updated on any progress between you two.

Hey, that's such a low blow.

But are you really volunteering to be the VP's spy...

for the future of the Fashion Division?

Yes, well, of course. What other reason would there be?

No, well... You two are so close. I was wondering if you were...

on your way to becoming Taehan's son-in-law or something.

Oh, that's a fresh perspective.

You know, I've never even considered that.

Why not? You could have a crush on her.

She is a wonderful person, after all.

I can't argue with that, but...

It's just that, for some reason...

she feels like a big brother to me.

The kind who carries a heavy burden all alone.

Like an older, close friend who just happens to be rich?

The kind who uses work as an excuse to pry into others' love lives...

and live vicariously through them. That kind of pitiful big brother.

That's my big brother.

Yes, brother... I mean, yes, Vice President.

What was that all about? Why meet with Ms. Gong in private?

I'm dying to know.

Well... I'm afraid I won't be able to give you...

any more reports from now on, Vice President.

Are you breaking our alliance?

If I were breaking it, I wouldn't be reporting it to you, would I?

But you didn't report anything.

Well, I was reporting that I won't be able to report anymore.

- You're clearly hiding something. - No, not at all.

Fine.

Then as a token of my gratitude for last time,

I'll pay a visit to Pacu Nacho's mother,

and I'll try to help things along between those two.

- No, please don't, Vice President. - Why not?

Why won't anyone let me do anything? There's no fun in life anymore.

So you're sure Mr. Park won't tell the VP anything now?

Yes. I threatened to kill him.

My gosh, that's scary. Will you kill me too if I step out of line?

Come on.

Hold on a second.

(Doctor Han Seong Mi)

- Yes, Doctor Han Seong Mi. - I'm with a patient. Why the calls?

I've only called you twice. And this is about work.

Do you have any time this week, by any chance?

Why?

You need to come in for a fitting before your photo shoot next week.

We need to go over the concept, pose references, and...

Tomorrow's the only day I'm free.

- Tomorrow's cutting it a bit close. - You should've called sooner.

Just schedule it for tomorrow. Director Yang said he'd fit me in.

What? Hello?

Wow. She had her say and hung up again. Seriously.

I'm telling you. The world is fooled by Dr. Han Seong Mi.

What do you mean? I think she's honest...

and really straightforward. I like that.

You like that? Thanks to her, I'm stuck working late now.

Why does it have to be tomorrow?

Oh, well...

I was going to sign the contract at Hyegyeong Department Store today,

and then take you out to that Argentinian restaurant.

Right. Just go with the VP then.

I'm sure she's been feeling neglected lately.

Neglected? Are you kidding? After she called my parents...

and caused that huge scene?

There were some bumps in the road,

but thanks to her, our families get along now.

True. For people who get along so well,

it's crazy they spent 30 years as enemies.

They're signing the "Human Theater" contract over lunch today.

My dad must be ecstatic.

(Yang Dong Ik)

(Gong Jeong Han)

Filming will take approximately 2 to 3 weeks.

And we'll have an initial interview before that.

Remember how I was the only one who showed off my Chinese skills?

That's right. Why do you ask?

My friend here has a hidden gem of a talent, too.

I see. What is it? Do tell.

What are you getting at? Seriously.

He's a great guitarist, an incredible singer,

and a phenomenal songwriter. His latest song is fantastic,

so I was hoping he could perform it during the shoot.

Now that you've brought it up, I can't really say no... Goodness.

It's actually a duet.

That's right! Don't we have a video of that?

- Should I show it to you? - Yes, please.

- We can listen for the right time. - Yes, of course.

- Oh, my daughter filmed it. - That's right! She did.

No rush. Send it over when you're ready.

One more thing. We need signed releases from the vendors.

We'd appreciate your help in getting their cooperation.

Don't you worry about that at all.

As president of the Merchants' Association,

Dr. Gong runs a tight ship at Onjeong Market.

It's all thanks to our vice president here.

The two of us have it on lock.

You...

Look at you, Mr. Sunny, Yang Dong Ik.

You're just grinning from ear to ear.

Hey, Gong Jeong Han from Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic.

Look who's talking, with that grin.

You're that happy?

Sure, I am. Last week's "Human Theater" episode...

had 1.5 million viewers.

Our Dong Ik is going to be a superstar.

You'd better start practicing your autograph.

You two are all smiles. Did you win the lottery?

Meeting Dr. Gong was my lottery win.

By the way, I heard a rumor. Is it true...

that Onjeong Market is going to be on "Human Theater?"

Absolutely. It'll be great publicity for the market,

so we'll need everyone's cooperation going forward.

- Of course! - Sure thing. No problem!

We're so grateful.

- Here, try one of these. - Thank you.

- You've done well. We're so proud. - Thank you.

- For our vice president, too. - For me as well?

Jeong Han. Thanks to you, I get to enjoy perks like this.

- We just thought you were fussy. - Yes.

So we figured you wouldn't like this.

No, that's not true. From now on, just like you look out for me...

No, please take even better care of Dr. Yang than you do of me. Okay?

- Yes, for sure. - Of course. Will do!

- We sure will. - Right.

Right.

(Eun Mi Hair Salon)

Leaving only this longing

- No! Stop it! - Come on, hold still.

- I said, stop it! - It's fine, come on...

Are you okay?

Only my longing keeps piling up

Let's use our words.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

Hello, it's me.

Welcome... Oh, do you have indigestion again?

It's not that.

Did your second son get divorced?

Why do you ask?

I saw him at the district office, getting divorce papers.

Really?

Well, he didn't do anything wrong, so there's nothing to hide.

Yes, he's divorced.

So that's what happened.

That explains why I haven't seen your second daughter-in-law around.

Is it the talk of the neighborhood?

I told everyone not to spread rumors.

What good comes from that kind of gossip?

My own daughter is divorced and living back at home with me,

and trust me, I hear all kinds of nasty comments.

- I'm so sorry. I had no idea. - Oh, dear.

It's for the best they split up before having kids.

Anyway, that brings me to my point.

I know, right?

What? Hey, Gong Dae Han.

What are you doing, moping around like this?

Hey! Go, Dae Han! Hey, we signed the contract.

Here, the contract.

What's up with him? Why's he acting like that?

He's just sulking.

- What's he sulking about? - Us being friends again, obviously.

You know he's been jealous of me since we were kids.

- No way. I doubt that. - What's there to doubt?

He's probably sulking, thinking I stole his big brother.

You think so?

Hey, are you really mad at me?

Look at this guy.

Are you really sulking? Hey!

Gosh, stop it.

Come on, what's gotten into you?

You really have to ask?

What? Is it because I went hiking with Dong Ik without you?

Or that we went to the bathhouse for scrubs together?

Hey, are you seriously upset over something like that?

How could you sing that song with him for Mom's birthday?

Oh, man. So that's what this is about?

Hey, come on. That was just...

That was supposed to be a surprise, that's why.

Forget it. You were always this way, even back then.

You're not even the slightest bit sorry.

Unbelievable. What do you mean, "back then?" When?

When we took the bus to school, you two always had to sit together.

Whenever we were late, we'd jump the wall,

and you two would leave me behind. Don't you remember?

Yes, that's right!

You were the only one who got caught by the disciplinary teacher...

and had to do squats until you dropped.

Yes, that's right.

You promised we'd all watch Hong Kong movies together...

after our exams, but you two left me out.

And you entered the singing contest, just the two of you, leaving me out.

Wow, you remember everything, don't you?

I haven't hung out with Dong Ik for 30 years, you know?

I'm just trying to make up for all that lost time at once.

Come on. How old are you, acting so petty like this?

Seriously, if I'd known it was going to be like this,

I would've just moved to a different clinic.

Please. You failed the interview anyway.

That's not true.

What do you mean, "not true?" Hey, Dae Han. Gong Dae Han!

Goodness. What's with him?

Honestly...

You skipped breakfast and exercise. Why the long face?

It's nothing. I just don't have an appetite.

Dae Han.

Yes?

You...

How about you go on a blind date?

Gosh, Mom...

The ink isn't even dry on the divorce papers yet.

What does the timing matter?

The best way to get over someone is to meet someone new.

I heard even Dong Suk is already seeing someone.

Don't feel any pressure,

but I hear she's in the same boat, so just give it a shot and meet her.

She's a preschool teacher.

Mom, I'm really not interested.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

(Sunny Korean Medicine Clinic)

Wow, it's so nice and clean.

- We take great care of our kitchen. - I see.

(Damga Charcoal Grill)

By the way...

The restaurant will be sold sooner than we thought.

I know, right? We're not going to get fired, are we?

I doubt that'll happen.

It's so clean and nice.

Oh, my!

I didn't realize you worked here.

Yes.

I'm taking a break from school to work part-time.

I'm counting on you.

Then you can just help her out from now on.

Yes, sir. I'll do my best!

Hello. I look forward to working with you as well.

Please just don't fire me.

Of course. I'd love for you to stay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

(Damga Charcoal Grill)

What do you think? Nice place, right?

And the price is right.

- So you like it, then? - Of course. Thank you, Dad.

You know...

- What? Did you forget something? - No.

That student working there looks familiar.

- That's Dr. Gong's son. - Not him. The young lady.

Come on, Dad. Why would she look familiar to you?

Let's go.

Knock, knock, knock. Delivery!

What's this? I thought you just got home.

I wanted to surprise you.

Honestly. But what if someone sees us?

Come on, so what if they do? I'm your boss, right?

Bringing food to a coworker working late?

People will say I'm sweet and thoughtful.

Here.

Some sushi that's to die for. And for dessert, handmade fatcarons.

I got you Oreo cream cheese and salted caramel.

I'm going to gain so much weight.

Me too. I think we're going to gain a ton of weight when we get married.

Will you still love me then?

Are you kidding me? If the woman I love most...

gets bigger, doesn't that mean there's more of her to love?

You know, you're convincing me.

If I hear another word about dieting, you're in for it.

- I've never said that. - You said it at the BBQ place.

Did I?

By the way, when I saw your dad at the restaurant,

he seemed to know you have a boyfriend.

Do you think he found out by overhearing our call that time?

He doesn't know it's me, though, right?

Of course not. If he knew, do you think he'd have let it slide?

Wait a minute.

What did he mean by that?

Mean by what?

Hey, for the record, I'm all for it. Okay?

I like that guy.

Wait a second. He doesn't know it's me...

Then who on earth does he approve of?

That's what I'm wondering.

I didn't even tell my grandma who it was, either.

(Damga Charcoal Grill)

What? It's already closed.

Gosh, at this rate, I'll forget what Woo Jae looks like.

I really wanted to see him. Gosh, you scared me!

What are you doing?

I'm so sorry. I was just really happy to see you.

Me?

Yes. We know each other, don't we?

I guess so,

but it's not like we're friends.

- Anyway, I should get going... - Hey, wait.

Yes?

Do you want to join me for a drink?

I don't really know anyone here in Korea.

Join me. Please?

- Can you take out the beers? - Sure.

Don't tell me you sleep here.

Yes. I sleep here.

Why? You don't have a place to stay?

No place to sleep?

The thing is...

Right, I don't.

I got robbed at my guesthouse. That's why I'm working part-time.

I need money for the rest of my trip and for a ticket home.

Then why don't you just call home and ask them to send you money?

Why earn money the hard way? You're almost on the street.

But I'm an adult.

I can handle this myself, so why should I worry my parents?

Don't you agree?

Ouch, that hits too close to home.

The owner has been kind enough to let me stay here until now,

but your aunt's taking over, so I'll have to find another place.

My aunt?

My aunt?

Yes. You didn't know?

She was here with your grandfather earlier.

I don't know.

Eun Bin. What are you doing drinking with a friend so late?

No, come home now!

Since Eun Bin isn't getting a job, why not let her work for me?

Absolutely not!

Woo Jae works there.

Come on. Our families have made up now.

So what if she gets close to Woo Jae?

Making up and becoming in-laws are different, don't you think?

You're overreacting. Woo Jae isn't interested in her.

That makes it even worse! I'm not giving Eun Bin to any man...

unless he is absolutely dying to be with her.

I agree with you there.

Then, if you want her to do what she loves,

why not ask Dad to invest in her?

I'm just not sure if that would actually be helpful for Eun Bin.

She needs to earn for herself, even if it's just a little.

I guess you're right about that.

Anyway, what's all this? Making ginseng chicken soup so late?

I'm making this to take to Hyun Bin tomorrow.

Liar.

You got him a talisman.

- You're taking it to him, right? - Hey! Hush.

Go for it.

Dong Ik's running so late.

He's probably still with Dr. Gong.

- Those two really hit it off. - I know. They just signed the deal,

so I wonder what they're still holed up preparing.

You know, whoever it was that posted that video of you falling...

We should thank them, right?

I guess that's one way to look at it.

Are you okay with us being on good terms with Dr. Gong's family?

What? Me? It's fine, I guess.

Hey, don't worry about me. I'm heading up now.

Just let it go.

It's foolish to wait for feelings that aren't there, Gong Dae Han.

Just let her go...

and just wish Dong Suk the best.

- Uncle. - What?

Did you use up that shampoo already?

- And you treasured it so much. - Right. I guess I did.

I guess I liked it so much that I used it too freely, not realizing.

Oh, right. You know the restaurant I work at?

Eun Bin's aunt said she's going to take it over.

Oh, really?

"Oh, really?" You told her about the restaurant.

She wanted me to tell you thanks.

Oh, she did?

- Hey, Woo Jae. - Yes?

When Dong Suk came by, was she alone or with a man?

A man?

Yes, she was with a man.

I see.

As long as she's happy, that's all that matters.

Farewell.

Yang Dong Suk.

You told him never to contact you again.

So what are you waiting for, Yang Dong Suk?

What did Uncle say when you told him to go on the blind date?

He refused, didn't he?

How did you know?

I think Uncle has a girlfriend.

Really?

I'm not 100 percent sure.

And here I was, thinking I was being too pushy.

Don't worry so much. I'm sure Uncle knows what to do.

I certainly hope so.

Grandma, by any chance...

Did you tell Dad I have a boyfriend?

- No, I only told your mom. - Gosh, you're such a traitor.

I can't believe you. I told you not to say anything!

Come on, I was just curious.

I knew your mom would meet him at the golf lesson event,

so I wanted her to check him out for me.

What are you talking about? Do you know who my boyfriend is?

He's that guy from your work.

Right, but which guy from my work?

Jun Hyeok.

Jun Hyeok?

Jun Hyeok? Mr. Park?

Yes. We're really close friends,

so I can see how she'd get the wrong idea.

And you just left it at that?

What else was I supposed to do?

What do you mean? You should've corrected her then.

"My boyfriend is Yang Hyun Bin, not Park Jun Hyeok!"

Why can't you just say that?

- Are you jealous right now? - Of course, I'm jealous!

I wasn't jealous when they mistook the VP for your girlfriend.

Why not? How could you not be jealous?

- It didn't upset you? - Not at all.

It bothers me. When Dr. Han arrives, I'll tell her everything.

I'm going to proudly announce that I'm your boyfriend, not him.

- No. Absolutely not. - Why not? Our parents just made up.

That's exactly why you can't. If they find out about us now,

their relationship might go south all over again.

I'll find the right time. So don't you say a word.

Got it?

Yang Hyun Bin.

Don't say my full name like that. You're scaring me.

I'm telling you, don't do it.

You're going to pay for this, Park Jun Hyeok. Darn it.

How dare he be treated as the future son-in-law instead of me?

I'm going to destroy him.

What's wrong? You have a bug in your ear?

Gosh, my ears are burning. Who's bad-mouthing me?

- Was it you? - No. Why blame me?

My gosh...

Here are the concept drafts for the upcoming photo shoot.

We'll make the final decision after today's fitting.

The shoot will be in the studio, and we'll shoot that outfit first.

It's my first shoot like this, so I'm worried about my posing.

You don't have to worry about that at all.

We'll have a board on set with sample poses and expressions,

so if you're not sure what to do, you can just take a look.

Thank you, Jun Hyeok. That puts my mind at ease.

Doctor, the outfits for your fitting are all ready.

- Should I go get changed? - Yes.

The length and the fit are absolutely perfect on you.

I'm not sure if it really suits me.

My gosh. It's a modern style, so it's perfect for you, Doctor.

You think so?

All right! Have some snacks while you work.

Our clothes look even better on you, Doctor.

If so, that's a credit to the talented designers.

All right, everyone!

I have good news. And I'm so happy to share it with Dr. Han here.

- I couldn't be happier. - Oh, are the contest results out?

We won, didn't we?

What?

Well... Yes!

Everyone worked so hard, and the results are...

Director! Congratulations!

Why did he have to cut me off like that?

I hardly did any of the work...

- Yes! Everyone worked so hard! - Great work.

Congratulations, everyone.

I'm so glad I could be here to hear the good news with you all.

You really worked so hard, Jun Hyeok.

Thank you.

Director! This is all thanks to you, Director.

Thank you!

- You worked so hard, Director. - Thank you.

Oh, no, it was nothing.

Hey! Let's go out to celebrate. Doctor, you should come with us.

- What? What do you guys think? - I'm in!

- Let's party! - Party!

- Party! - Party!

- Party! - Party!

So, we won't need traffic control for the shoot?

No. We'll mostly be filming inside and around the clinics.

The film crew isn't that big either, so there's no need to worry.

Still, a crowd might gather to watch the shoot.

You never know what might happen,

so Officer Jung should stand by at the clinic.

Pardon? Right, yes, sir.

We'd really appreciate that.

It's for Onjeong, so it's the least I can do.

- By the way, Chief. - Yes?

We should tell the doctors about that thing.

- Oh, that's right. - What? What are you talking about?

There was a criminal case...

at the intersection by the health center.

What?

Someone broke into a clothing store when the owner was there alone...

and tried to rob her before running away.

What? Who would dare do that in Onjeong?

Wait, if they fled, are they still at large?

Yes, we're tracking the suspect.

We'll be patrolling more, so please report anyone who looks suspicious.

And especially for those who run their businesses alone,

please advise them not to be alone late at night.

Please tell everyone to look out for each other.

Yes, got it. I'll tell the Merchants' Association.

- Yes. - My goodness.

(Onjeong Market, Merchants' Association)

- Then, good luck with the shoot. - Yes, we appreciate the help.

- Yes, thank you. - Take care.

- We'll get going then. - Okay.

- Hey, Jeong Han. - Yes?

If you have time, do you want me to give you some acupressure?

Acupressure? What? But I have an appointment.

- Hey, stand still. - Okay.

The hollow under your cheekbone is an acupressure point.

If you press here gently like this,

it helps blood circulation and improves your complexion.

Really? Right here?

Yes. And if you press here in the center of your philtrum,

it'll also reduce facial puffiness. Press it gently now and then, okay?

So that handsome face of yours looks even better on camera.

Fine. I'll drop by when I have time, so you can do it for me, all right?

- Hey, we'll be late. Let's go. - Jeong Han.

Don't get the wrong idea, but just hear me out.

- What is it? - It's about Councilor Hwang.

He'd like to be on our show.

Oh, really?

Yes, it'd be helpful for him in many ways.

The thing is, he wants it to seem natural,

as if we're all close friends.

So for that to work, let's eat together before the show.

- Okay, I'll get in touch with him. - Really? You'd do that?

Of course. You worry too much.

- Man, thanks. - Hey, it's nothing.

My gosh! Seriously?

Dr. Gong is arranging a meeting with Councilor Hwang himself?

I'm so happy that you're happy, honey.

Yes. I just got to Hyun Bin's company.

Okay.

- My goodness, Doctor! - Fancy meeting you here.

What brings you here?

I'm here for a photo shoot.

That's right.

You're the exclusive model for this brand.

You're so cool.

- But wait, what is all this? - Oh, this.

After what you told me, Doctor, I had to do something.

Pardon?

It's ginseng chicken soup.

I put in a lot of abalone and made it with the utmost care.

I was going to ask the VP to take it to the Chairman.

I don't know if this is a good idea...

Why?

The VP was a huge help to Hyun Bin when he was studying abroad.

Can't I say this is just to show my gratitude?

I understand where you're coming from,

but they're not that close yet, so it's a bit...

Don't you think this might be putting too much pressure on them?

- You think so? - Yes. Rushing it will ruin things.

Don't rush. Take it slow and steady.

I did go back and forth on it a lot.

I got ahead of myself and almost made a mistake.

Running into you here was a real stroke of luck, Doctor.

Gosh, but you made it from scratch. What will you do with it?

It's fine. I made some for Hyun Bin, and I was on my way to his place.

I'll just leave this there with his.

Thank you so much, Doctor.

What gives?

She left for the day without even stopping by.

I'm in a bad mood, and she didn't try to cheer me up.

The least she could do was take me to that Argentinian place.

That's cold.

Hello?

Your text?

I'm sorry. I was in a meeting, so I didn't see your text.

The thing is, I made some ginseng chicken soup.

Ginseng chicken soup?

Yes. I was in the neighborhood, so I've been waiting to drop it off.

Would it be okay if I could get the passcode?

Of course. I'll text you the code, so you can wait inside.

I'm almost done. I'll be there soon. We can eat together.

Really? That sounds lovely.

Don't rush. Take your time getting here.

Okay, wait for me inside. I have something to tell you, too.

No way. He used my birthday for the code.

All right! Gong Ju Ah, you culinary genius.

I'll make an Argentinian meal and cheer him right up.

Okay, first things first...

Meat, breadcrumbs, and...

I got the ingredients for milanesa, and next...

Parsley, oregano,

and garlic.

Oh! Shoot, I forgot the red wine vinegar.

I heard it's what gives chimichurri its kick.

Gosh, I'd better run out and get it.

It was the unit at the very end, right?

Didn't he say to press the star key first?

Or was it the pound key?

Oh, no.

The star is last.

There we go.

I'll put the ginseng chicken soup here.

But this is what I really came for.

Gosh, I can't believe how much I paid for this paper talisman.

- Talisman? - Dear Shaman.

Please let my dear Hyun Bin...

win over the Vice President for good.

This goes under his pillow, right?

Oh, right. I should wash my hands first.

Oh, what is this?

Why is there a woman's hair here?

Does the Vice President come over?

No, that can't be it. She has short hair.

Then what's this? Did one of my hairs fall out?

Hyun Bin.

You're here.

Goodness, I told you not to rush. What are you doing here so soon?

Your text was from two hours ago. Where have you been waiting?

- The parking lot, inside my car. - You could've left it at security.

I didn't know when you'd be getting off work.

I was worried it would go bad, so I wanted to put it in the fridge.

Next time, it's really okay. You can just call me directly.

I couldn't possibly bother you while you're working.

I'll heat the ginseng chicken soup. You go get changed and wash up.

- Okay. - Oh, right. What was it?

Oh, right.

So many people are doing the video challenge imitating you.

Really? That's wonderful. This is a good thing, right?

Of course, it is. Thank you for your consent.

I'm inside your apartment right now.

Please, can you just get her to leave?

I'm just so happy these days. Your father is so happy, too.

That's all thanks to you.

Right? I guess posting my fall video was a really good idea after all.

(Director Yang Hyun Bin)

What did you just say?

What have I done?

Oh, no. I must be out of my mind.

So...

that video...

You're the one who uploaded it?

Well...

Well, Hyun Bin...

The thing is... What am I going to do?

Why can't I think of a single excuse?

Dad's home, isn't he?

Hyun Bin. Just talk to me. Please?

Hyun Bin. Oh, no! What do I do, really?

Hyun Bin.

Hyun Bin, what am I going to do?

Oh, no. Hyun Bin, wait.

Where's the car parked? Give me the keys. I'm driving.

Hyun Bin.

I did it. It was me. Just talk to me. Please?

Hey, Eun Bin, it's me. Are you home? Have you eaten?

Really? Then can you do me a quick favor?

(Nurse Oh Jin Ah)

Oh, gosh.

- Hello. - Hello.

I hope your treatment goes well.

Goodness. You're here again.

Are you Dr. Gong's lover or something now?

No, we were just going to play a game of pool.

When does the late shift end?

It's still going to be a while.

- At 10 p.m. - Really?

Hyun Bin. What's up?

Right now?

All right.

- Just a moment. - And you're feeling some pain?

- Yes. - Oh, dear.

- It hurts here and here, right? - Yes.

You have fluid buildup here, too. See?

You really need to rest.

- But you haven't been able to rest. - I know. I can't afford to.

- All right. I'll drain the fluid. - Okay.

Let me give you some emergency treatment.

How could you be so despicable, Father?

How could you? How?

Hey, it's just...

Hyun Bin.

Your father has done nothing wrong.

I'm the one who did it. It was all my fault.

So please, don't blame your father. Okay?

She only did it because of you, Father.

Because of your greed,

my stepmother was forced to humiliate herself.

How could you just stand by and watch?

- How could you? - Hyun Bin.

You, Father...

You still don't know the first thing about love.

You were always so cold to my birth mother.

How lonely she was,

and how she craved your affection... I remember it all.

And that's why...

I could understand Mom, why she wasn't able...

to show her love for Eun Bin and me,

and why she ended up leaving you for another man.

I came to understand her completely.

And yet, you refused to admit your own faults.

You just blamed her for leaving,

and you lived your life suspecting my stepmother.

And now, you're using her?

You little punk.

- What do you mean, using her? - Honey, please stop.

If you love her, protect her from being hurt or in pain.

Isn't that what a husband is supposed to do?

Did you thank her?

Did you tell her she did a good job?

Were you happy you got your way, thanks to her being humiliated?

Hyun Bin, don't overreact. Honey, say something.

I...

I was wrong.

And you're just realizing that now?

You should've thought of that before you acted!

You know...

what Gong Ju Ah had to endure because of that, right?

I was ignorant.

I was so stupid. I'm so sorry, Hyun Bin.

We really had no idea it would blow up like this.

Saying you didn't know doesn't absolve you of blame.

Even if you didn't intend to hurt anyone,

there are some lines you just don't cross.

That's why I showed up at the disciplinary hearing.

And I cleaned up the mess.

You see, I...

I thought it was an act of goodwill.

And Dr. Gong's family probably thought so too.

But still...

In the end, it all worked out for the best, right?

Go tell them the truth. And give them a proper apology.

- Hyun Bin. - If you try to cover this up,

then don't ever expect to see me again.

Hyun Bin.

It's just that...

Hyun Bin, wait a second. Hyun Bin!

Hey, Hyun Bin. Please, just talk to me, okay?

It wasn't your father. I wanted to do it.

I'll tell them everything and apologize. So please...

So please, don't be so hard on your father, okay?

You're a wise woman. You can make your own judgments.

Don't get so used to my father's ambition...

that you keep making these wrong choices.

I'm...

I'm so ashamed, I have no idea what to say.

I'm not blameless either.

I used your video for marketing.

So in a way, I used you too.

No. How is that using me?

I was just so happy I could help our family.

You don't have to do anything. That's what family is.

Don't feel like you have to prove your worth.

Just having you here is more than enough.

You don't have to be your best. It's okay not to be perfect.

Eat all the delicious food you want. It's fine if you gain weight.

We'll love you all the same.

Okay.

I know what you mean.

But...

But listen, Hyun Bin.

I'm asking you for a favor.

You saw it for yourself.

The two families are finally getting along now.

Right?

Let's not say anything.

I'm begging you.

And for Ju Ah's sake,

what good would come from her knowing?

Hyun Bin, please.

Hold on a second.

You see, I'm not much of a writer,

so I figured it'd be better to say it in person.

What if this was all staged?

Mom, you're saying crazy things.

Seriously, who would post a video of themselves falling?

Turns out Mom was right.

Can you come out for a minute?

I'm sorry, honey.

I kept telling you not to slip up,

and yet I ended up blurting it out.

No.

It's a mistake anyone would've made.

Hyun Bin...

I think he's going to tell Gong Ju Ah, honey.

Why? Are you going somewhere?

I have to be the one to tell Jeong Han.

Let me go. I'll go to their house and...

No, Se Ri.

I'll take care of this.

Hyun Bin wasn't wrong about a single thing.

I'm the one who put you up to this. I should have stopped you.

From now on, don't do anything.

Don't do anything for my sake.

Honey.

But still...

I love you.

It's not that I love you because you love me.

I love you, and I trust you.

Okay, Se Ri?

Honey...

There's something I have to tell you.

I couldn't let tonight pass without saying it.

I showed up out of the blue all the way in Onjeong at this hour,

but you don't seem surprised.

I just thought it was very you.

I figured you wouldn't hide it.

I just came from your apartment.

I was there earlier.

I was going to make you some Argentinian food.

I was waiting to surprise you with it,

but then your mother came in, so I hid.

So that's what happened.

So?

You heard everything?

Yes.

I thought I had figured out what to say.

But it's...

hard to get the words out.

Don't apologize for them.

You didn't do anything wrong.

I'm not going to ask you to understand or forgive.

That would be too selfish.

It's just...

I feel bad that you're not the type to hide something like this.

As their son, I was torn between being angry at my parents...

and wanting to protect them. That's true.

But if I were to hide what happened,

I'd be just as guilty as they are.

And that...

wouldn't be the Yang Hyun Bin that you fell for.

Right?

I guess I was a little arrogant.

To believe...

that I could change my family.

Throughout this whole ordeal,

I was right there by your side.

And the fact that I still couldn't protect you...

I'm so sorry.

I think I have to...

leave everything up to you now.

It's a shock to realize that my love for you...

could be what hurts you, but...

what's even more devastating...

is that I can't promise you...

something like this won't happen again.

Can you give me...

some time...

to think about it?

I'm so sorry, Jeong Han.

What I did was unforgivable.

We really didn't mean for this to happen.

No, we did. We knew.

No, that's not what we meant...

What we intended to...

Why can't I get this right?

So...

- Jeong Han. - Yes? What's up?

You scared me.

Where did you come from? Do you teleport or something?

You were too busy muttering to yourself to notice me.

What's up? You sounded weird on the phone.

I had Nurse Oh close up and rushed right over.

It's...

What? What is it?

Not here.

Let's go somewhere we can talk.

- Go where? Goodness. - Let's just...

Se Ri.

Yes?

Se Ri, is something wrong?

No, nothing's wrong at all.

Come on. Hyun Bin randomly told us to take Grandpa...

out to dinner. There has to be a reason.

I know. But where's Hyun Bin? And my brother isn't here either.

- Excuse me, I'm just stepping out. - Gosh, Se Ri.

No, you can't go out alone so late. Haven't you heard what happened?

What happened, Auntie?

Yesterday, a robber held up a shop where a lone woman was working.

- And they still haven't caught him. - Gosh, really?

Don't tell me you sleep here.

Yes. I sleep here.

You don't think he'll return tonight, do you?

It was only an attempted robbery. He could try again.

(Damga Charcoal Grill)

Okay. Finished closing out.

Done.

(Gong Myeong Jeong Dae Han Clinic)

(Reception)

May I help you?

We're closed for the day.

(Police)

Help me!

What was that?

You heard that, right?

- Yes. - That was a woman screaming, right?

Yes. Wait. Jin Ah!

Jin Ah! Oh Jin Ah!

- Why, you... - Come on.

Drop the knife. Drop it, or I'll shoot.

You take one more step, and this woman dies. Got it?

Drop your gun.

Drop the gun! Darn it.

Just shoot him. What are you waiting for? Shoot!

This witch has a death wish. You punk!

Stay still, you jerk!

Are you okay?

Are you okay? Are you hurt? Are you hurt anywhere?

I'm okay.

Don't go. It's dangerous.

Look at me.

I'm a police officer.

Jin Ah, go inside, lock the door, and don't come out. All right?

Wait! But...

Don't get hurt.

Please.

Who are you? Who the heck are you?

- Get out of the way! - Jeong Han, he has a knife!

What did you do to Jin Ah? What did you do? You jerk!

- Out of my way, or I'll stab you! - Jeong Han, stop it. I'm scared.

Hey! How dare you wave a knife around here in Onjeong?

- You're going down today. - Hey, Jeong Han!

Hey! Dong Ik! Call the cops! Call now!

Darn it!

- Over here! Here! - Hey, Officer, over here!

- Here! - Get out of the way! Darn it!

No!

Darn it!

Hey, Dong Ik! Hey!

Dong Ik! Stay with me! Dong Ik!

Dong Ik! Stay with me! Dong Ik!

(Recipe For Love)

I almost got hit by your mom's car. But she didn't even apologize.

- She treated me like a weirdo. - Oh, really?

- Dong Ik shielded me from a knife. - A knife?

It's a protective instinct. His body reacted without thinking.

So, does that mean he always cared about me that much?

I love flowers. It's the first time anyone's ever given me any.

I worry about you, and I miss you.

I really like you.

I couldn't really sleep. I was too excited.

- Excuse me? - Ji Hu's phone's been off.

Go to the police station right now and file a report.

Min Ji Hu!

Hey, do you happen to know where Ji Hu is?
