[Intriguing music]

[Birds chirping]

This is good.

[Man/Narration] One day, out of nowhere, I started seeing numbers.

[Spoon clinking]

Ack!

[Doctor] What did you say?

You say you can see ghosts?

Huh?

You can see past lives?

Numbers...

[Man/Narration] The doctors had absolutely no idea what was causing it.

- [Rain pouring] - [Woman] It was raining, so I made some pancakes.

Good, right?

[Intriguing music continues]

Drink some water.

[Man/Narration] These numbers only appeared when I ate...

No, actually,

they only appeared when I ate the food my mom made for me.

Strangely, those numbers kept counting down, one by one.

Ack!

Ouch!

Stop fooling around and eat.

I even made the anchovy broth from scratch for you, sheesh. Tsk.

[Man/Narration] If you're wondering when I first started seeing those numbers...

- [Hajun's Mom] Hajun! - [TV News playing]

At least have some breakfast before you go, hm?

[Hajun] Ah, I told you I'm running late, Mom. I'm gonna miss my exam at this rate.

Hurry up and wake him so he can eat, hm?

Ah, Jung Hamin!

Hey, your brother is leaving for his college exam, and you're not even gonna show your face?

- Wow, that hurts. - Here, here, here, here.

- Just one bite. - Ack...

- [Hamin's Mom] Say "Ah", hurry up! - Got it, got it.

You're driving me crazy, Mom, seriously.

If I bomb this, it's all your fault.

Good luck, bro.

You only live once!

One shot.

- I'm going. - Ah, just one more bite, ah, ah!

- [Customer] Thanks for the meal! - [Hamin's Mom] Have a good day!

- [Phone ringing] - [Tray clattering]

[Somber music]

Aren't you supposed to be taking your exam right now?

[Hamin's Mom/Wailing] My poor baby, what do I do...

[Hamin's Mom] Let's eat first.

You need to eat to gather your strength.

Can you even swallow food right now, Mom?

Skipping one meal isn't going to kill me.

If you hadn't held him back to eat,

he wouldn't have been rushing,

and he wouldn't have been hit by that car!

[Hamin sobbing]

[Hamin's Mom] You're right.

It's all my fault.

It's all my fault, so

just eat first.

You haven't eaten a thing in three days.

If you don't eat, I won't eat either.

You want to hold another funeral?

Shit...

[Mysterious music]

Why?

Mom.

Can't you see that?

See what?

Huh?

Ah, never mind.

[Calm music]

[Chattering]

[Upbeat Christmas music]

[Employee 1] Okay, alright. Everyone gather around.

They say it's hard to change your taste in soju, right?

But you know what?

My life is even harder.

- [Employees laughing] - Oh, come on.

Alright, let's flip this whole scene today

and switch everyone over to Hallyang Soju!

[Employees] Switch 'em, switch 'em!

Switch everyone to Hallyang!

- [Employee 1] Alright, to your stations! - [Employees] To our stations!

- [Employee 1] Let's go! - [Employee 2] Okay!

[Hamin] Haa...

- Boss! - [Employee 1] Oh, you're drinking Hallyang!

[Employee 2] Hallyang over Sanhae any day!

[Employee 3] Hallyang guarantees the best flavor!

[Employee 2] Hallyang is a work of art!

[Employee 4] Here we go, Hallyang coming through!

- [Female Employee] Woo, let's hear it! - [Customers] Hallyang, Hallyang, Hallyang!

Hallyang, Hallyang, Hallyang!

[Customers cheering]

[Employee 2] The thrill that moves your heart! It's Hallyang!

[Employee 4] Anyone drinking Hallyang Soju today gets a free hangover relief drink!

[Customers cheering]

Oh, my mother-in-law!

[Woman] Hello!

- [Man 1] Hey. - [Woman] Hello!

Enjoy your meal!

[Man 2] The menu today is amazing!

[Woman] Thank you!

[Light music playing]

It's delicious, I just have a small appetite, yeah.

I didn't even say anything.

If you could eat only one thing before you die, what would it be?

- Anything... - You can't say "anything". You'll go to hell.

Raw fish bowl.

[YouTuber/Video] Two spoons.

- Three spoons of soy sauce. - [Hamin] Three spoons of soy sauce.

[YouTuber/Video] There's no set rule for the soy sauce.

I just do whatever I feel like.

Three large spoons of sugar.

Whenever you're mixing noodles...

[Bright music playing]

- You always gotta use a lot of garlic. - [Hamin] One spoon of garlic.

[YouTuber/Video] This here is sesame oil.

- My friend sent it to me... - And then what?

A ton of sesame oil.

- A ton of sesame oil? - [Woman 1/Video] Ha! Sesame oil too.

[YouTuber/Video] Put plenty of sesame oil...

[Hamin] How much is "a ton"?

[Woman 1/Video] How do you measure that?

[YouTuber/Video] You just measure it out as you pour.

It's more accurate than a spoon anyway.

[Door lock beeping]

[Video continues playing]

- [Hamin] You're here? - [Woman 2] Yeah.

- [Door closing] - [Door lock beeping]

What are you doing?

Ah, I felt bad we couldn't spend Christmas together.

- Oppa. - [Hamin] Hm?

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Instead, we promised to spend the New Year together.

We're going to see the countdown together this year, right?

Ah, of course.

You're hungry, right?

I'll whip something up quickly.

- But by the way... - [YouTuber/Video] Mmm~

Everyone watches pretty girls eat, so why do you only watch this grandma?

Does she share some secret recipe?

Ah, I just miss my mom.

If you miss her, you can just go visit.

Right, I could do that...

Anyway, my cooking skills are legendary lately.

Is there anything else you want to eat?

You can't say "anything". You'll go to hell.

Seaweed soup.

Seaweed soup? It's not even your birthday, why seaweed soup?

Beef or clams?

Neither.

Then what?

When I lived in the orphanage, there were so many kids,

so the seaweed soup never had beef or clams in it.

They just boiled it with beef seasoning powder.

But weirdly, I miss that taste.

Hmm...

It's okay to let yourself be fully loved now.

I'll give you a ton of love.

Huh? A passport photo?

Where are you going? Going somewhere?

[Hamin] Oh? Ah, I forgot to tell you.

I coordinated with my friends to go on a trip.

Keep this photo with you just in case.

Why?

[Hamin] Well, you can use it as my funeral portrait.

What if I go on this trip and never come back?

My mom doesn't have any money.

Take the money out of my account and arrange the funeral for me.

Shinhan Bank, 22-12...

Nonghyup Bank, 3357...

Why are you always worrying about things that haven't happened?

Where do you even buy this worry?

Hey, our lives are ticking clocks. You never know what's gonna happen.

Honestly,

sometimes you act like someone who's being chased every single day.

You're going on a trip, but you're already planning out your own funeral!

Ha!

What?

Seriously.

[Intriguing music]

Do you have some kind of secret you're not telling me?

Like massive debt or a terminal illness?

Oh, my mother-in-law.

[Tapping] It's because I'm a 'J' to the bone.

Sorry, I'm a 'P' to the bone.

But who exactly is this mother-in-law you keep calling out for so desperately?

In Gyeongsang province, we use 'mother-in-law' as an exclamation.

You know, a mother-in-law is the scariest thing in the world,

but when things get even tougher than that,

to the point you actually miss her...

My mom says it all the time.

I bet she's probably saying it right now somewhere.

[Hamin's Mom] Oh, my mother-in-law.

[Bright music]

Heave-ho.

[Hamin's Mom humming]

Shoop!

Ugh, so tiring.

[Hamin's Mom groaning]

Hmm.

I wonder how much these cost nowadays?

I should probably get one of these for my son when he gets married.

[Notification chime]

[Ding-dong]

[Woman] Hm?

Who is it?

Uh, who are you?

- Who is it? - [Hamin's Mom] Ah...

- Here. - Oh, thank you.

- Eat up. - Yes.

Let me call Oppa and...

No, no need.

I just had a wedding to attend in Seoul, so I dropped by for a bit

because I was so curious to see how you two are doing.

- Right, thanks for the food. - [Hamin's Mom smiles]

Ah.

This is my first time having this soup, but it's really delicious.

It's Hamin's absolute favorite.

Whenever he

gets the chills from a coming cold, or feels a fever coming on,

this is the very first thing he asks for.

Where do your parents live?

If it's your first time having this, you must not be from Gyeongsang.

People usually get uncomfortable when I mention this, but...

Why?

My parents passed away.

That's nothing special. My mom and dad are dead too.

[Calm music]

You must've been buying all your kimchi and soybean paste from the store, huh?

Store-bought stuff tastes bad.

I'll send you everything from now on.

Even if I pack food for that punk, he never eats it and just throws it away.

This is perfect. This is great.

[Hamin's Mom laughs]

Yeah, eat a lot of it.

[Upbeat music]

[Announcer] The New Year's countdown will begin shortly!

People have gathered all over the country

to watch the New Year's countdown tonight.

I hope everyone watching gets to achieve everything

they wish for in the new year!

[Crowd] 10! 9!

8! 7! 6!

5! 4! 3!

2! 1!

[Crowd cheering]

- [Woman] Happy New Year! - [Man 1] Could you step back a bit?

Excuse me, hold on.

- [Man 2] Just a second, yes, yes. - [Man 1] Excuse me.

Please step back inside. Step back just a little.

- Huh? - [Man 1] Thank you.

Thank you so much.

[Crowd] Oh, what's this? What's happening? What is it?

[Passerby 1] Ohh~

- He's proposing! - [Murmuring]

- Let's get married. - [Crowd] Ohh~

- I'll be more than a husband, I'll be on your side for life. - [Crowd applauding]

[Chattering]

Only if you meet one condition.

Hm?

Your mother is living all alone in Busan, right?

Let's bring her to live with us.

You said you want to see her every day.

Well, yeah, but...

I've always told you, Oppa.

My only insecurity in life is family.

No, I can't.

Why not?

Just because. I just can't do that.

Then I can't do this either.

- Huh? - [Murmuring]

[Passersby] What, are they done?

[Passerby 2] What? Why isn't she taking the ring?

[Woman] Marriage

is my only chance to finally have a family.

Find someone else.

[Passersby] What?

Oh my god, oh my gosh.

[Passerby 3] Wow.

[Passerby 4] I'm getting second-hand embarrassment.

[Murmuring]

[Man 1] Hey.

Hey, you idiot.

You're kicking away your own blessings.

[Man 1] Hey, why are you just standing there?

[Man 2] Go after her before you regret it.

- [Passerby 5] He really shouldn't have done that. - [Man 1] Sigh.

[Man 2] What are you actually gonna do now?

[Calm music]

[Door closing]

[Spatula tapping]

Oh!

Dad.

[Hamin's Dad] How do you know my face?

[Hesitantly] Ah, I saw pictures of you.

[Hamin's Dad] Really?

I look better in person, right?

Yeah.

Scoop me some rice too. Let's eat.

- [Hamin] Okay. - Heave.

Were you sad I never appeared in your dreams?

Even if you couldn't see me,

I watched you grow up the entire time.

[Hamin/Faint smile] Really?

Nah, I wasn't sad.

But I've never eaten with you before,

so I don't know how much to scoop. Is this enough?

Yeah, that's fine.

- Sit down, let's eat. - [Hamin] Okay.

You're curious what that is, aren't you?

You can see it too, Dad?

When that number reaches 0, your mom will die.

What?

Really?

Ha, isn't this way too cruel to me?

Don't you even feel bad for me?

Seriously, who is playing this sick joke on me?

Is it God?

Or is it you, Dad?

[Bowl clinking]

It's not God, and it's not me either.

It's just your fate.

But fate can change.

You know that, right?

[Door rattling]

[Woman] What are you doing out here?

[Hamin] Ah, ahem, you leaving now?

[Woman] Don't tell me you slept out here?

Yeah.

Forget about marriage,

I'm not into guys with twisted mouths from sleeping outside.

I gotta go to work.

Come to the office later or something.

[Door opening]

[Stomach growling]

[Hamin] Ah...

'Mom's Magic Touch'

'Mom's Side Dish Kimchi'

'Mom's Home Cooking'?

[Calm music]

Everyone claims their mom made it.

[Rattling]

[Rustling]

[Chattering]

Hey, my mom was sick today, so she couldn't pack me a lunch.

Let me have some of yours.

[Friend 1] Ugh, seriously.

[Friend 2] Dude, he's using his mom as an excuse again.

Hey, I bumped into your mom at Jagalchi Market yesterday

- and said hi to her, man! - [Hamin] What are you talking about?

Hey, my mom is really sick right now.

[Friend 2] Ah...

- What, you're always just... - [Friend 1] Just eat.

- Hey, just eat this. - [Friend 1] No, no, it's fine.

- Just eat it all. - Hey, just use your fingers to eat, man.

[Friend 1] My mom makes really good gimbap.

[Friend 2] Hey, tell your mom to open a Gimbap Hell franchise.

[Friend 1] It's Gimbap Heaven, you idiot.

Hey, listen to this.

Every time I eat food my mom cooks, a number counts down one by one,

and when it hits 0, my mom dies.

What would you guys do?

Does your mom know about this?

She doesn't.

Then obviously you shouldn't tell her.

Look here.

What if she starts stressing over that, huh?

What if she ends up getting cancer or some other disease from the stress?

Right, right.

I wouldn't tell her either, I'd just secretly avoid eating it.

Even if I did tell her, would she even believe me?

And even if she did believe it,

what kind of mother would stop feeding her child

just because she's scared of dying?

Man, just imagining that sounds torturous.

Seriously, living under the same roof as your mom, but you can't eat the food she makes?

[Intriguing music]

Is it?

Wait, no it's not? No it's not!

Hey, you can just eat out all the time!

Isn't that a total win?

[Friend 1] You're right, that's a massive win.

[Friend 2] See?

[Hamin's Mom] No, I have to go home and cook dinner.

[Hamin] Ah, come on.

[Hamin's Mom] Where are we going?

[Hamin] Ah, right over here.

[Hamin's Mom] Seriously, what's wrong with him?

[Hamin] Ah, seriously, just come on!

- [Hamin's Mom] Ugh, ah. - [Hamin] Ugh, come on.

[Hamin's Mom] Ha, seriously.

Ugh, seriously.

Mom, come on!

Ah, I don't want to!

Please, please, please, please!

[Hamin's Mom] Ah! Seriously.

Ah, why do we keep eating out lately?

We don't even have any money to spare.

The landlord is asking to raise the rent,

we've spent all your dad's insurance money,

and I'm scraping together every penny for your college tuition.

Ack!

Mom.

Just for one day, just today!

Let's go.

[Woman/TV] If you follow the fish,

you'll find some great spots to take pictures.

[Upbeat music]

- [TV audio playing] - [Door closing]

- Have you eaten? - [Hamin] Ah, I bought something on the way.

- [Door closing] - Have you eaten?

[Hamin] Ah, I don't have an appetite.

- [Hamin's Mom] Have you eaten? - Ah, my stomach feels queasy.

Have you eaten?

Ah, it's okay. Just watching you eat makes me full.

Bullshit. Let's eat together.

Ah, no, you go ahead and eat. I have something to do.

[Hamin/Narration] To protect my mom,

I had to leave her.

If I just keep my head straight,

I can change our fate.

[Bright music]

First, I need to leave home.

I have to go to college in Seoul, no matter what.

Oh my, Eunsil.

You're gonna burn a hole in that. At least look up when you eat. Tsk.

There are plenty of good colleges in Busan too.

Ah, what is mom gonna do if you move to Seoul?

Why do you only think about yourself?

Ack?

Other families are dying to send their kids to Seoul,

so what's your problem, Mom?

By the way,

what's your dream?

My dream?

Dying of natural causes.

Stop talking nonsense.

Ugh, how can a grown man have such a tiny little dream? What good is that?

Ugh.

Do you really think you'll do well in Seoul?

- Oh, my mother-in-law. - [Eunsil] Ha...

Like you said, mom, is there anything scarier than a mother-in-law?

Jeez, you punk.

All you're good at is talking back. Tsk.

Ah, just eat.

[Calm music]

Mmm~

[Hamin exhales softly]

[Hamin] So,

I don't think it'll be easy living with my mom.

Now I understand why you were worrying so much beforehand.

Right?

You must've been so worried all this time.

[Hamin] Thank you.

But Oppa,

[Calm music]

are you really expecting me to believe that?

Huh?

[Woman] You're scared your mom will die if you eat her food,

so you can't live with her?

Does that even make sense?

You don't just have a worrying personality, worrying is your whole fate.

Worrying is my fate?

Whatever.

I don't want to get in the way of your life anymore.

Coffins are single rooms anyway.

Let's just go find our own happiness separately.

[Eunsil] He's always only cared about himself.

What's so great about a kid who only thinks of himself?

Don't worry about me.

A widow is better off living alone anyway.

But I don't feel right about it.

[Eunsil] Ryeo-eun.

Instead of being a scary mother-in-law to you,

I'd rather just be your mom. Just your mom.

[Eunsil smiles softly]

[Phone notification]

- Here. - [Video playing]

[Friend 1] Huh? Isn't this lady the Godmother of chicken feet?

- She'll give you everything! - She'll scoop it all for you!

Ha, why do you think I'm showing you this?

Ah, Team Leader.

You know this place only serves Sanhae Soju.

Even if we go there, she won't even look at us.

We've got direct orders from the Chairman.

He wants to use this lady as our commercial model.

[Friend 2] Ah, she won't even take our alcohol, so casting her makes no sense.

[Friend 1] Ah, Team Leader, um,

there's a lady next door who makes Turkish pancakes and curses a lot.

I know this is our turf and all,

but casting for a commercial is a bit...

Oho, look at the slaves talking back.

It's an order from headquarters, so there must be something in it for us.

Like a bonus, or a promotion, right?

I'll give it a shot.

I mean, what's there to lose in life? It's all or nothing.

- Hey, absolutely not, man. - [Friend 2] What's wrong with you?

Ah, I'll give it a try.

I'll handle it myself.

Coming soon.

[Friend 1] Whoa.

Why is he acting like that all of a sudden?

He actually broke up this time.

Love and marriage, both bust.

Aha, hmm.

- [Intriguing music] - Hello, Hallyang Soju is here!

[Owner] Oh my god, oh my gosh. Oh my, get out of here.

[Hamin] Ah...

- [Owner] Go, go away, go! - [Hamin] Oh, come on.

[Owner] Hurry up and leave, hurry up!

- [Hamin] Oh, hello. - [Owner] Ugh, seriously, I'm sick of this.

[Hamin] Can you just take a look at this...

Uh, whoa.

- [Owner] Please, just please leave! - [Hamin] Ah...

[Humming]

Here, Table 2.

[Employee] Yes.

Ah, yes, thank you!

Ah, your chicken feet are here!

Enjoy your meal!

Enjoy your meal, yes!

- Ah, seriously! - [Hamin] Ah!

Is this an apple?

Ugh, what a waste, damn it.

- No, this... - No, you have to cut the top off first...

- Oh my gosh, ah~! - [Customers cheering]

[Customers responding excitedly]

Now, look here, look here!

- I'm gonna start mixing the honey liquor now! - [Customers cheering]

'Ah!'

Ahem.

[Hamin groaning]

[Phone buzzing]

Ah, ugh.

Ah...

[Calm music]

Excuse me, boss, do you have any perilla leaves?

[Owner] Ah, perilla leaves are as expensive as gold right now...

[Employee] Here's your meat!

Oh, I'm sorry, customer.

Should we go somewhere else?

We already put the meat on the grill, where would we go? Just eat, Oppa.

Ah, it's fine, it's fine, Oppa.

- I like lettuce too. - No, no, it's fine.

[Ryeo-eun] Ah...

[Hamin] Oh boy.

You cooked the meat well.

Ah.

Ah.

What's the big deal about perilla leaves, damn it.

Let's eat.

Did the owner find his roots again?

He's giving us plenty of perilla leaves lately.

- [Door closing] - [Door lock beeping]

[Door lock beeping]

[Beep]

[Ding-dong]

Dinner? Have you eaten?

Ah, not yet.

- [Door closing] - [Door lock beeping]

Oppa.

I saw on the news that they did a survey somewhere.

Do you know the #1 reason people decide to break up?

It's when you can't stand the sight of them eating.

I still love watching you eat, Oppa.

I love you.

[Ryeo-eun] I love you too.

[Hamin] Wow.

Have you ever had beef soup?

- [Ryeo-eun] Yeah. - [Intriguing music]

No.

Hm? Then how do I make it?

- [Eunsil] Like this... - [Ryeo-eun] Yes.

Hamin gets sick all the time like a little baby.

Whenever that happens, I boil a big pot of this, and he gets better right away.

Easy, right?

[Both laughing]

- See? See? That's it, right? - [Ryeo-eun] Ha!

Huh?

Mmm~

Mmm.

Wow.

This is exactly the taste.

This, this is seriously delicious.

This is the taste.

Put some soul into it.

No, it's really delicious.

Tch, I made it exactly the same way.

Huh?

Do you know why I became a nutritionist?

Why?

They say a lack of something isn't a flaw, it's a possibility.

I grew up without eating my mom's home-cooked meals, so I wanted to make them for others.

And Oppa,

I've been thinking about it,

and I think I was being selfish.

It's because I was hungry.

It's because I'm twisted.

It's because I'm inadequate.

Ah, no, no, no.

My mom and I are both the same,

we've been living apart for so long

that living together might be a bit too hard for us.

Uh, instead, we'll go down to Busan often

and eat galbi, and raw fish,

and eat fish cake skewers too?

Huh? How did you know?

Fish cake skewers, seed hotteok, spicy glass noodles!

Come here, look here, buy here!

[Hamin laughs]

[Light music]

[Phone notification]

[Chopsticks clattering]

[Water running]

This is so good.

Wait, how did you know about pickled soybean leaves?

This is something only people from Gyeongsang know about.

You know I love perilla leaves, right?

Not just perilla leaves, I love every edible leaf on Earth.

And did you forget I'm a nutritionist?

Is there any food in this country I wouldn't know?

Wow, look who's the master chef.

- We're really breaking up. - I love you.

Make this for me every day when we get married.

Is it not too spicy?

It's not spicy at all, it's so good.

[Hamin laughs]

[Hamin] But why don't we have enough money for a jeonse lease?

Should we just scrape everything we have and buy a place?

[Ryeo-eun] Ha... What's wrong with paying monthly rent?

Let's not get too greedy.

What did you say your dream was again?

Dying of natural causes.

If you want to die of natural causes, you should actually get an endoscopy.

You've never once done the health check-up your company provides, have you?

Ah, what if they suddenly tell me I'm dying? I'm too scared.

Oh, my mother-in-law!

[Hamin humming]

Ugh!

[Hamin chuckles softly]

- [Hamin] Look at this. - [Ryeo-eun] Yeah.

How much is it?

- Gasp! - [Hamin] Ah...

[Ryeo-eun] I made soybean leaves for him, and he said they taste exactly like yours!

- Seems like I have quite the magic touch... - Is that so?

I guess he doesn't need me anymore then.

[Ryeo-eun] Pardon?

No, I'm just here to clean up. I'll call you later...

[Ryeo-eun] Okay, Mom, let's talk later.

- [Vacuum thudding] - [Heavy music]

Ah...

Urgh!

Argh.

Argh...

[Hamin breathing heavily]

Excuse me! Um,

where is the operating room?

- [Staff] It's on the 3rd floor. - [Hamin] Ah.

Oh, you're here? Good job getting here.

Auntie.

Since when has Mom been sick?

What kind of sudden surgery is this?

I don't know.

Is your mom the type to tell me anything?

Ah, a few days ago,

she just kept saying, "Unni, no matter how much Sprite I drink, I still have indigestion."

Oh, she's so foolishly stubborn, seriously.

Sigh.

When that number reaches 0, your mom will die.

[Calm music]

[Hamin breathing heavily]

[Sniffling]

[Hamin] Ha...

[Phone ringing]

Uh, where's Mom?

[Hamin's Aunt] The doctor said

they removed 80 percent of her pancreas.

She won't be able to eat meat anymore, what are we gonna do?

[Hamin] Mom never liked meat anyway.

[Hamin's Aunt] Well, that's a relief.

Uh, Hamin, you're not going back up to Seoul right away, are you?

I need to go take care of some things, so stay by your mom's side.

[Hamin] Okay.

[Hamin's Aunt] Goodness, it's so miserable being a woman without a son.

Your son was crying his eyes out at the crack of dawn.

Sigh.

Why the long face?

Are you mad you had to come all the way down here when you're so busy?

Ha...

No, where did you spend all the money I sent you?

Are you secretly gambling?

Why didn't you go to the hospital regularly? What were you doing?

I really thought you caught some terminal illness...

I'm sorry.

Stop yelling at me.

How could I spend the money you worked so hard for?

I've been saving every penny to help you when you get married.

Mom.

I'm not getting married.

No, I *can't* get married because of you.

So don't make me worry about you anymore, you hear me?

I hear you, I hear you.

When I get discharged tomorrow,

I'll make some side dishes at home for you,

so take them with you.

I'll make a big pot of that beef soup you love...

The food you make

is all too salty and spicy.

Store-bought food is much better.

Ugh, I seriously can't stand looking at you.

[Heavy music]

[Knife thudding]

[Chopping]

[Door rattling]

- [Door closing] - [Hamin] Eh?

Oh my.

What is all this?

Have at least one bite before you go.

Unless you want to see your mom die.

I'm late for school.

[Eunsil] Then don't go to school.

Mom will call them.

What are you talking about? Ah, I'll eat it later when I get back.

Was the packed lunch you took for the picnic yesterday good?

Are you scared you'll die like your brother if you eat my food?

Is that why you keep avoiding it, throwing it away, and refusing to eat it?

Ah, geez, that's not it...

Then why are you doing this?

Can you really not see that number?

If that number runs out, you're going to die.

Number?

What number?

Where is there a number?

Where? Huh?

Where is this number?

Where?

Hamin, please get a grip.

Or else,

do you want to go to a psychiatric clinic with me?

They say it's not a taboo to go to a psychiatrist these days.

- My friend's daughter... - [Slams table]

Do I look like a mental patient to you?

You go by yourself.

[Door rattling and closing]

[Doctor] Ah, well, losing your brother so suddenly

- has been very hard on your mind. - [Calm music]

When things like this happen,

due to PTSD,

people can experience ringing in their ears or see hallucinations.

It's just your mind trying to protect itself.

It's a very natural reaction.

With time,

you will be okay.

Is work going okay?

[Hamin] Yeah.

Is your boss giving you a hard time?

No.

Do you want some more rice?

No, I'm done eating.

It's almost time for my train.

[Eunsil] I know you're busy,

but who else am I supposed to talk to if not you?

Ah, you have Auntie. I'm leaving.

[Ryeo-eun] You haven't even had dinner yet, what were you doing?

Ta-da.

This is the new "Egg-weed-shrimp" ramen I developed.

[Hamin] What's that? Egg-weed-shrimp?

[Ryeo-eun] Egg, seaweed, and shrimp.

- Hurry up and try it. - [Hamin] Aha~

- Oh man. - [Ryeo-eun] It's hot!

[Hamin] Phew~

Oh, wow, this is amazing.

[Mysterious sound effect]

[Dark music]

[Chopsticks clattering]

Fuck.

Oppa.

Where did you get this kimchi?

I bought it.

You bought it?

[Ryeo-eun] Yeah.

My mom didn't give it to you?

How did you know?

When you eat food made by your mom, do you really see something?

Can you see that number behind me?

Were you testing me?

No.

It's not that...

You didn't believe me.

You wouldn't care if my mom died, would you?

Oppa, why would you say that...

It might just look like a joke to you,

but do you have any idea what it's like

living my whole life in fear because of that damn number?

Have you ever thought about how I feel?

Okay.

Oppa, I get it, so...

[Door rattling]

[Door slamming]

[Customers chattering]

Ah, ha...

[Calm music]

[Faint sigh]

- Ha... - [Phone dialing tone]

[Eunsil] Yeah, Hamin.

Did you get back okay?

Did you eat?

[Sniffling]

Why?

Mom.

Mom.

[Hamin sobbing]

Mom.

[Hamin crying]

[Upbeat music]

[Voiceover] Even if I'm alone, this moment is the absolute best.

The one secret that shatters the loneliness of drinking solo.

Turns out, Somaek is better than connections in life.

[Voiceover] Hallyang.

Kyah~

[Employees] Wow! Woo!

[Employee 1] Jung Hamin!

[Employees cheering]

[Friend 1] Jung Hamin!

Wow, you actually pulled this off.

[Friends] Wow, man.

Ack!

They say it's hard to change your taste in soju?

Ack, who says that?

Ack!

Who said that?!

- Ah, should we do a cheers? - [Employees cheering]

Switch 'em! Switch 'em!

[Employees] Switch everyone to Hallyang!

[Employees cheering]

[Chattering]

[Hamin] Blergh! [Coughing]

- [Friend 1] Hey, hey, geez. - [Woman] What is he doing?

- [Friend 1] Oh, sorry, so sorry about that. - [Hamin] Ah, I'm so sorry.

- [Friend 1] I'm sorry. - [Hamin] I'm sorry.

- [Friend 1] Sorry. - [Friend 2] Ah, what's wrong with him?

- [Hamin] Ugh. - [Friend 1/Laughing] This guy is such a lightweight.

- [Hamin] Ah, why am I like this? - [Friend 1] We're really sorry.

- We apologize. - [Friend 2] He drank all the alcohol by himself.

- [Hamin coughing] - [Friends laughing]

[Hamin] Ugh.

- Ugh. - [Friend 2] Oh man.

Ah, hey, what about you and Ryeo-eun?

Are you two really over for good?

What did you guys even fight about?

Ha... I don't know.

Hey, man.

Why do you only ever think about yourself?

This guy seriously only knows himself.

[Friend 2] Tsk, tsk.

The taxi is here, I'm gonna head out.

[Friends] Alright, yeah.

- Take care. - [Friend 2] Get home safe.

[Friend 2] Sigh.

[Friend 1] Sigh.

[Door lock beeping]

[Door rattling]

[Hamin] Ha...

[Door closing]

Ha...

[Rattling]

Ah...

Argh!

Ugh...

[Mouse clicking]

Are you married?

- Not yet. - What about family?

Just my mom and me.

Where is your mother?

- In my hometown. - Where is your hometown?

Busan.

Oh, I'm from Busan too.

- Busan High School. - Kyungnam High School for me.

Good.

Excuse me?

Then what about your father?

Ah, he passed away from stomach cancer.

- When? - On the day I was born.

Good.

What do you mean, "good"?

When was the last time you had a health check-up?

- I haven't ever had one... - Why not?

I've been too busy making a living.

What do you do for work?

I sell alcohol.

Ah, alcohol.

I work for a liquor company.

Good.

Wait, what keeps being so "good" since a minute ago?

It's stomach cancer.

[Calm music]

You have three months, at most.

The younger you are, the faster it spreads.

[Doctor] We could try surgery, but...

It's late stage 3, and considering your family history,

I can't make any guarantees.

[Hamin/Flashback] If you hadn't held him back to eat,

he wouldn't have been hit by that car!

[Eunsil] Are you scared you'll die if you eat my food?

I seriously can't stand looking at you.

[Hamin] Do you have any idea what it's like

living my whole life in fear because of that damn number?

[Hamin/Monologue] So was this something that would only end with my death?

If I die,

my mom's number will never go down again.

[Phone beeps]

[Ryeo-eun] Oppa.

Nothing happened to you, right?

I couldn't reach you, so I've been really worried.

Let's just meet one last time.

[Calm music playing]

I thought about it carefully,

and later when we have a baby...

Then again, you never believe anything I say anyway.

Anyway,

you don't even know what illnesses your biological parents had,

what if our kid inherits some terrible family history?

I'm just over the whole idea of marriage and kids now.

Let's just stop seeing each other.

You know exactly how I grew up, did you really have to say it like...

Stop acting like you're the most miserable person

in the whole world.

It's exhausting.

Fine, let's break up.

You don't deserve to have a family anyway, Oppa.

You're so selfish, Oppa. You only care about yourself.

You're right.

I only care about myself.

I don't care about having a family.

So you

go find some guy who can cater to your insecurities, and live happily ever after.

[Door rattling]

[Announcement] The 10:15 KTX train bound for Busan is arriving shortly.

Passengers, please wait behind the safety line...

[Calm music]

[Baby crying]

- [Woman 1] Oh my. - [Child 1] Mom!

[Woman 2/Tearfully] Mom,

I failed the exam.

Mom, I really want to eat the tteokbokki you make.

- [Woman 3] Should I make you some tteokbokki? - [Student] Yeah.

[Child 2] Mom!

[Hamin/Narration] We humans are so strange.

[Child 2/Crying] Mom!

[Hamin/Narration] Whenever we are in trouble,

instead of shouting "Save me" or "Help me",

we always look for our moms first.

[Child 2/Crying] Mom!

To hell with those numbers.

I don't care anymore.

[Calm music]

[Birds chirping]

[Children chattering in the distance]

Mom.

Who is it?

Your son.

Both my sons are dead.

What are you talking about? I'm alive right here.

No, you're not.

My first one got hit by a car.

And my second one drowned in the water.

A woman with no luck in children has no luck in husbands either.

I have neither of them.

Huh? When did I go into the water?

I don't even go to the pool, let alone the ocean.

Mom, do you have Alzheimer's?

But really, who are you?

Oh my, are you my son's friend?

Or are you the new civil service worker from the district office?

Ah, stop joking around, it's me, Hamin.

I seriously don't know who you are.

Are you looking down on me because I'm a woman living alone?

Why are you scaring me like this?

Ah...

Is it... is it really Alzheimer's?

Ah...

What's 5 times 8?

Ah, what the hell!

Hey, your mom's a pretty good actress, right?

Ah, are you crazy?

- How dare you ask your mom if she's crazy? - [Hamin] Ah...

Ah, you scared me.

Why did you come? I thought you couldn't stand the sight of me.

Ah, geez, I came to eat your food.

I don't have any food.

Ah, you don't have any rice?

I live alone, how am I supposed to cook every day?

My arms and legs are aching to death as it is.

[Sighs] What do you want to eat?

Beef soup.

[Eunsil] But why are you so skinny?

[Eunsil] Haha, hello there!

Ah, hello!

- Boss! - [Owner] Oh, welcome!

Give me one geun of beef for making soup.

Actually no, give me a geun and a half.

Oh, what's this?

Starting a new household?

My son is visiting!

- [Owner] That's great! - Oh, don't trim the fat off,

just give it to me as is.

My son likes it when the oil floats on top.

[Owner] Got it.

[Eunsil] Why, is there not enough side dishes?

Hm? No, it's fine.

Why, do you not have an appetite?

- No. - Why, do you not have any manners?

Wow, Mom, you've still got it.

What, did you wish your mom was dead?

Stop complaining and hurry up and eat.

[Hamin] Ha...

Huh?

Mom, why does your soup look like that?

Ah, I can't eat meat anymore, remember?

Did you forget already?

Ah, right, I'm sorry.

It's only meat I can't eat, I can eat everything else.

Stop putting on a show and just eat.

- Thanks for the meal. - [Eunsil] Yeah.

Mmm~

Is it good?

[Eunsil chuckles]

[Calm music]

[Eunsil] Goodness.

[Meaningful sound effect]

Ha, this is seriously so delicious.

[Eunsil laughs]

[Eunsil] Do they not have Daiso in Seoul?

[Hamin] There are plenty.

You could buy some nail clippers for a thousand won.

A guy working in sales walking around with nails like this, tsk.

I already told you.

I only let you cut my nails for me.

[Eunsil chuckles softly]

- But Mom, - [Eunsil] Hm?

How long did Dad live after his surgery?

[Eunsil] He spent about three days in the ICU,

and then he just passed away.

Your dad is pretty impatient, right?

He could have at least opened his eyes for a second,

so you could have seen him before he went.

- Mom. - [Eunsil] Hm?

Should I stay here a bit longer before I go?

Did you get fired or something?

Hey, what are you talking about?

Other places are practically begging to recruit me.

Then why?

Just because.

I just want to eat as much of your cooking as I can before I leave.

Ah, nonsense, you said eating out tasted better.

Eh, that's only good for a day or two.

How long are you gonna stay?

[Hamin] Ha...

Looks like I only have about a month left.

Ah.

Ah...

Ah...

[Calm music]

[Eunsil] What do you want for dinner tonight?

[Employee 1] You had a good trip to your hometown, right?

[Team Leader] Ah, well.

Oh, you guys are all from Busan, right?

[Together] Yes!

If you're lucky, you get to see your parents twice a year, on Lunar New Year and Chuseok.

For me, since I'm from Jeju Island,

if a typhoon hits like last Chuseok, we just have to skip it.

If you assume your mom and dad will live for another 20 years,

that means you only get to see them 40 more times.

- [Employee 1] Huh? - 40 times.

Ah, that's kinda chilling, isn't it? Huh?

Suddenly realizing it's only 40 times.

You're right.

Your wife might wait for you at home, but your parents won't wait forever.

[Employee 2] Ugh! It's so cold, man.

- [Employee 3] Hello. - [Employee 2] Yeah.

No, seriously,

what's so funny with this team

that you guys gather together and whisper every chance you get? Huh?

Ah, what's so funny, huh?

Boss,

I heard Jung Hamin quit?

Excuse me?

[Employee 2] Because of Hamin, what's her name? Huh?

Because he managed to recruit that Somaek Auntie, your position was in danger, huh?

Good for you!

- Boss, aren't you gonna throw a party? A party? - [Team Leader] Hey.

- Smoke, go smoke your cigarette. - [Employee 2] Oh, uh...

[Team Leader] If you came to smoke, then just smoke.

Oh right, Executive Kim was looking for you earlier.

- Huh? - [Team Leader] Yeah, hurry up and go.

[Employee 2] Ah, why? What does Executive Kim want now?

Ah, just hurry up and go. You'll find out when you get there.

[Employee 2] Ah, why again?! Ah!

[Employee 1] What do you mean he quit?

Ah, that guy seriously, geez.

Ah, I told you guys not to say anything to him yet,

[Calm music]

[Phone buzzing]

[Eunsil] Oh, Ryeo-eun, did you call?

- Mom. - [Eunsil] Yeah?

Oppa is...

[Dramatic music building up]

But this is really what you want to eat before you die? Just this?

[Hamin] Ha!

Take a bite first, then tell me. Seriously.

Here.

I'm not sure though?

Ack!

Giant Fried Chicken is my life, okay?

When I moved up to Seoul, this was the thing I missed the most.

Junco, Yoogane, Okkudak, Mubanna... They all opened branches in Seoul,

but this is the only one that stayed here.

I actually came here to say goodbye.

Goodbye, Giant Fried Chicken.

See you in my next life.

Come here.

[Hamin chuckles softly]

Wow, this is seriously amazing.

What was the other thing I wanted to eat again?

They say when you get stomach cancer, all you think about is food. I guess it's true, huh?

Ack, you searched it up again?

Anemia makes you skinny, your eyes sink in, and your skin gets rough like a sweet potato.

And?

- Hair loss, and... - Ugh!

Hair loss! Not hair loss. That's my last shred of pride.

Wow, look who's worried about his hair.

- This is your punishment, Oppa. - Ack!

Geez, always with the "ack, ack, ack!"

What is so "ack" all the time anyway?

Even when you're dying, your mouth is still alive.

Anyway, I'm not a doctor or anything, so I can't save you.

Goodbye.

But seeing you eat still makes me happy.

Since you're leaving anyway,

I'm going to try and hold onto you one last time.

And then I'll send you off right, without any regrets.

[Door rattling]

[Door slamming]

[Hamin] What are you doing? Let's eat.

What happened to all of it?

[Fridge door closing]

I threw it all away.

Huh?

Why?

What's the point of eating it?

You'll just throw it back up anyway.

How long were you planning to hide this from me?

Ah, what? I didn't hide anything.

You noticed I lost weight right away.

[Eunsil] Ha...

Get the surgery.

Ah, you said Dad got the surgery and never woke up.

I'd rather just spend a few more days with you.

Eating your food again after so long is actually pretty good.

Once I go to the underworld, I won't be able to eat it anymore.

You little...

Is that something a son should say to his mother?

Like you said, mom, just accept it as fate.

This is just my fate.

[Heavy music]

[Sniffling]

I will beg you like this.

Let's go to the hospital

with Mom.

Is it exactly the same now as when your dad died?

That was over 30 years ago.

Do you have any idea

what it's like to bury your own child?

After I lost your brother like that,

I've never once

even put a drop of lotion on my face.

I've never truly lived a single day since.

But then you...

Because you came back,

I finally thought I should start living properly again,

but now you're going to do this to me too?

It's my life, why are you telling me what to do?

Because I'm your mother! I'm your mom!

Whatever, I'll figure it out on my own.

[Door rattling]

Ugh...

- Ugh... - [Door slamming]

[Agonizing moan]

Ha...

[Sniffling]

[Hamin gagging]

[Hamin coughing]

[Hamin breathing heavily]

[Heavy music]

[YouTuber/Video] Soaked garlic?

[Woman/Video] Aren't you supposed to put soaked garlic in?

- No, soaked seaweed. - Just put the seaweed in.

[Woman/Video] Are you sure about the soaked seaweed?

[Calm music playing]

[Ryeo-eun] How is Oppa doing?

I don't know what he's thinking, acting like that.

Ah, my blood is just boiling inside.

Sigh.

Even if you two end up breaking up,

please, try to convince him.

Tell him to get the surgery right away.

Men might not listen to their mothers,

but they always listen to their women.

Mom.

You love Hamin Oppa, right?

Of course I love him, he's my son.

What is love?

It means believing them even if they say they can make soybean paste out of red beans.

We don't know when Oppa might leave us.

So let's just believe him.

Believe what?

That number

that keeps tormenting him.

[Boat horn in the distance]

[Ryeo-eun] Add some fish sauce, and...

Here.

[Hamin] Oh, you know how to eat this right.

[Ryeo-eun] Mmm!

Wow~

Wow, you eat Dwaeji Gukbap so well. Isn't it gamey?

Isn't it basically just the same thing as Sundaeguk?

[Hamin] Hey.

Hey, if you say that in Busan, you'll get slapped.

The passion of the pig diving into the broth is completely different here.

Oh wow, look who's the master of Korean cuisine.

Ah, come on.

Why did you come back down here?

I told you I was going to hold onto you.

Honestly,

you still love me, don't you?

- Yeah. - Hm?

Hey, if you just say "yeah" like that, how am I supposed to die in peace?

So what are you going to do now?

Hmm...

I'll just wait until it hits 1, then die.

Is this a game to you? Leave 1 and die?

Honestly,

I don't really know how you feel about your mom right now.

I never learned how.

Anyway, stop joking around and just get the surgery.

Also, I've been thinking about something carefully.

About what?

A way to save you from that number's curse.

So you believe me now?

Yeah.

There's a Latin phrase, "Animum fortuna sequitur."

Do you know the saying, "Fortune favors the bold"?

Wow, look who's Harry Potter now.

I'm not doing it. I'll just die.

Sorry, but what is it?

I won't do it.

Ah, come on, I'm dying soon. Just let this slide once.

[Calm music]

Honestly, Ryeo-eun...

I really don't want to die like this.

[Tearful breathing]

[Hamin sobbing]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

[Plastic rustling]

Just tell me what to do.

Sigh.

Ah.

Tch...

Cut the radish in a jagged motion, like you're sharpening a pencil,

then add the beef to the oil.

Ah, right, you have to buy brisket.

Don't be lazy and just go to the mart

- [Rhythmic music] - and buy the pre-packaged stuff.

Go to the butcher and tell them to give you one geun

with the fat still attached.

Think about it.

How could a soup possibly be good if it's only made with dry, lean meat?

You need some fat on it, and the oil needs to float on top.

That's the main point, you see?

Stir-fry the beef and minced garlic in oil.

You have Joseon soy sauce, right? Put one spoonful of that in.

Coarse red pepper powder is better.

- Sauté it until the bottom of the pot almost burns, - [Sizzling sound]

then you add the radish and pour the water in.

If you put the green onions in too early, it'll turn to mush.

And don't just chop the green onions all perfectly either,

just roughly hack them up like *thud, thud*.

Did you get all that?

[Rolling sound effect]

Mom, are you a rapper?

Talk a little slower!

Oh, my mother-in-law.

Listen carefully. Tsk.

[Clearly and slowly] The radish.

Like you're sharpening a pencil, swish, swish, swish...

- [Eunsil] You can tap it like this too... - [Hamin] Yeah, ohh...

[Eunsil] Like this, like this. Like this, look.

[Hamin] Wow.

[Hamin] Yeah.

Hmm...

[Calm music]

[Meaningful sound effect]

Mom.

Hm?

I'm going to get the surgery.

But,

if I don't wake up, promise me you won't cremate me.

Bury me in a sunny spot with an ocean view.

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Just because.

I just feel too bad for you, Mom.

Why do you feel bad?

I was just thinking about it,

Grandpa never sent you to school, so you couldn't even study properly.

And your whole life, you've been working to support me and my brother.

You've lived without even knowing what you actually wanted to do.

The women in Seoul who are your exact same age

are living as professors, or members of parliament.

They're living their lives doing whatever they want,

and I just felt so bad for you.

Well.

They say boys finally grow up right before they die, and I guess it's true.

Eunsil.

In your next life,

make sure you're born as my child.

I'll send you to college and let you do everything you ever want to do.

Look at you, all talk.

And also,

at my brother's funeral... I heard everything the people were saying.

They said you killed your husband,

and you killed your son,

and it was all your fault.

But,

Dad,

and me, and my brother...

None of it is your fault.

[Calm music continues]

Thank you, for saying that.

[Seagulls crying]

Oh, my mother-in-law.

There's nothing scarier in this world than a mother-in-law.

So don't be scared.

Yeah. I'll be back.

[Hamin's Aunt] Have a safe surgery.

[Sorrowful music]

Unni.

I'm so scared.

What if something goes wrong?

Goodness, if they take Hamin away from a woman with luck as twisted as yours,

I won't let Jesus or Buddha or anyone get away with it!

Don't worry.

[Eunsil wailing]

[Medical machines beeping]

[Hamin] Oh, my mother-in-law.

Oh, my mother-in-law.

[Tense breathing]

[Calm music]

Oh, my mother-in-law.

Ha...

[Hajun] The soybean leaves are really delicious.

[Eunsil] Eat a lot.

It's salty. Just eat them one by one.

Shouldn't the youngest do that?

[Eunsil laughs]

[Hamin's Dad laughs]

[Hajun] It's perfectly seasoned.

- [Medical machines beeping] - [Respirator hissing]

[Ding-dong]

[Eunsil] Ha...

[Ryeo-eun smiles softly]

Thank you.

Mom.

[Hamin's Aunt] Oh my goodness.

It's embarrassing, calling for your mom at your age.

What else am I supposed to call my mom but "mom"?

Mother?

Ah, that's embarrassing.

[Hamin's Aunt] What's so embarrassing about it?

Uh, excuse me, ladies.

I literally just knocked on death's door and came back, can I get a little attention here?

Are you feeling alright?

[Hamin] Wow, this lady is tough.

Her son just had cancer surgery, and she doesn't even shed a single tear.

[Hamin's Aunt] Goodness, what do you mean she didn't cry?

Your mom was bawling her eyes out so much,

all the nurses in the hospital probably quit because of her!

[Eunsil/Smacking her] Ah, Unni, what are you saying?

Ah, ah...

Wake up so you can chat with your son after so long. Come on, get up, get up.

What are you talking about? I just got here...

[Eunsil] Ah, go away, go.

Ah, seriously.

- Get some rest. - [Eunsil] Ah, seriously!

[Hamin's Aunt] What the, what the...

Ah, I just stood up, what do you...

[Eunsil] Go, hurry up.

[Door closing]

[Friend 1] Sigh.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Hey, the doctor says it's a miracle.

He says you only need to do chemo six times.

Hey, so my sister-in-law prepared a gift for you.

What do you mean sister-in-law? Don't go claiming someone else's life like that...

Ack!

Ack?

Seeing you "ack, ack" again means you're feeling better.

[Hamin] Ah.

- Goodness, seriously. Tsk. - [Friend 2] Ehey.

[Friend 1] Ahem.

Thanks for surviving.

Yeah.

Here.

Look at this.

Hello, this is Park Mak-rye.

Hey, you little bastard.

Even if you have to roll around in dog poop, this world is better than the afterlife, right?

Looking at your face, you're going to live a long life!

Listen to your mother.

Why were you throwing a fit?

Is it because you didn't listen to your mother? Hmm?

Take grandma's words as a bonus and be grateful you're alive!

Live well!

[Hamin laughing and groaning]

[Friend 1] Whoa, hey, you okay?

[Hamin] Ah, haha...

[Birds chirping]

- Oh~ - Bean sprouts?

Yeah, here.

- Green onions. - [Ryeo-eun] How much green onion?

How much is "a ton"?

A lot!

Are we in Busan or Osaka?

Okay.

[Eunsil] She's so skilled with her hands. Really skilled.

[Hamin] Here we go!

[Ryeo-eun] Oh.

[Hamin] Yes!

Ack, wait a second.

- [Eunsil] Ah, right! - Oppa, hurry and close your eyes.

Yeah.

[Hamin breathing nervously]

[Calm music]

[Ryeo-eun] What was the very last thing you wanted to eat from your mom?

Beef soup.

Then how about you make it for your mom yourself?

The home-cooked meals your mom makes might only have one left,

but the meals you make for her are infinite.

[Hamin's Dad] But,

fate can change. You know that, right?

Okay, try it.

[Mysterious music]

It went up.

It went up.

- Really? - [Eunsil] Really?

Alright, let's hurry up and eat.

[Eunsil laughs]

Oh, my mother-in-law.

- What? - [Ryeo-eun] Yes?

Mom, give me some more broth.

It's good, right? Freaking amazing, isn't it?

[Eunsil laughs]

Yeah, me too.

[Quietly] It is a bit bland, though.

But it's still good, right?

It's delicious.

Phew...

Ah...

[Sentimental music]

[Daughter] Is it good?

It's good.

[Son] Eat up and enjoy, Mom.

[Son laughs]

More than this soup my daughter made for me,

I just wish you kids would show me your faces more often.

Come visit us more often, sweetie.

Was it good for you?

[Daughter] Do I have to post this in the group chat?

Of course you do, for something like this.

[Sentimental music continues]

[Family] ♪ Happy birthday, dear... ♪

[Family] ♪ Happy birthday to you! ♪

[Mom] Oh~

Thank you, kids. You went through so much trouble to prepare all this.

It was a great meal.
