Episode 34

April is quite a man.

Take it off.

I will. I will return it to him, ok?

Let me try it.

Why?

Can't I even try it?

What's wrong with you to yell at me?

Because I'm jealous!

Then you bring your lunch and give it to April.

But I don't have pickles. He likes that kind of dishes.

Then let's do this. I'll sell my lunch to you.

At how much?

$10 for the container and uh...

Wait, the lunch box is almost an antique. Hard to find anywhere.

Pay me only $50 for the container, and $10 per day for dishes.

That's a highway robbery.

It shines on me.

Wait! This is 24-karat gold, around 20grams.

Oh my! Then how much is this gonna be?

He must be out of mind, huh?

I think so. He can't give you this as a present.

But you know what? A present is like magic.

As soon as I received it, my eyes widened,

and my heart started pumping and... oh my!

Are you that excited?

You are a snob after all.

You got it. I'm a snob.

Far from being noble.

Gees.

Hey, take it off.

I will.

Why does it take so long?

You're being so mean.

Oh, so beautiful!

My stomach aches...

Shall I just take it?

Honey, you see the tavern down there? Let's go.

Come on, we just had dinner.

I have something to talk to you over a drink.

Well, let's go!

Come on in.

Excuse me.

One fish cake and a soju please.

Ok. What kind of soju would you like to have?

"Innocent Bachelor" please.

Are you that happy that Gangji is pregnant?

There's a saying "The best sponsor of daughter-in-law is her father-in-law."

You're taken in by only a piece of hanbok.

You can patron your son-in-law in future. I won't be jealous.

Don't worry.

I don't think Dr. Yoo will make an adorable son-in-law.

Why didn't you bring your cell phone?

I forgot.

You should have left a memo if you weren't coming home.

You know where I go.

How come you didn't even call me?

I need to change clothes.

Wait!

Are you ticked off?

No.

Did you see Ms. Boss today?

I was with her.

Until now?

We've been in the temple.

We should live with them, taking care of Gangji while she's pregnant,

so that our grandchild as well as Gangji can appreciate us.

Jade is still single and we can't leave this matter to her, while we are available.

You think I'm ignorant? I know that but there's no way.

There's a way. We should make our mothers live together.

But they won't. Did you already forget the fight they made the other day?

Yeah. That's the way. To make it unbearable.

Drive them to the point they can't live with us any longer.

Then they'll decide they'd rather live together than with us. Right?

My mom can't bear dirtiness.

And your mom can't bear nagging. Right?

Yes.

See? What we should do is to get on their nerves.

Starting tomorrow, I will not wash my feet and smell bad.

Oh, brother.

And you nag your mother day and night. Can you do that?

Jade needs to focus on writing but she's distracted by Prince,

and now Gangji's pregnant...

She can hardly focus on her work.

Exactly.

Children's success will eventually benefit our mothers.

Of course.

I'll try what you suggested.

Hold on. You better not try if you try without heat.

You should be determined to ride her to the end, ok?

Don't worry. I'm worried about you.

I'm not like other men. I'd strive to make my way.

This is all about my children and my role as their father, ok?

I'm sure my mom will give up earlier than your mother. You'll see.

Wanna bet?

On what?

Jade, let's have a party on Christmas Eve and celebrate Gangji's pregnancy.

Kyle will like it too.

Do not count me in. I have an appointment.

With friends?

Yes.

I'll have breakfast at Goodsoon's place tomorrow.

You're causing inconvenience to them

It's all set.

No name.

What are you doing?

Making bed.

Who is it?

A friend.

Male or female?

Male.

Well, can I have Gangji sleep in tomorrow morning?

I already told her about that. Don't worry.

As fellow women, we wouldn't treat her harsh, ok?

There are no sisters-in-law like us.

Yeah. You're angels.

Happy?

Yep.

Ouch!

Be nice to her.

I've heard that pregnant women get very senstive to every behavior of their husbands.

Yes, ma'am!

I like to just take it but...

How can I seduce him?

How better would he treat a woman he loves...

...if he gave a gold bracelet for the lunch box?

What is it?

What are you doing?

So messy.

Hey, it's midnight.

Can't sleep in this spooky atmosphere.

It's not spooky here.

If you're not gonna help me, just go to sleep.

I can't. You're making a noise!

I can't believe you never organize things.

Is this your house?

I can't sleep in this state.

Stop.

Just stop, please!

Come on. You sleep as soon as your head touches the pillow.

Hey!

What?

You're so noisy. Stop snoring!

It's beyond my control!

You can't get angry at me for complaining!

Let me sleep!

Gees... Let ME sleep!

I wish I live on my own in peace.

Excuse me. Please take care of her. I'm leaving now.

Yes, sir.

Let's go to Goodsoon.

Yes, sir. Shall I call her in advance?

Don't.

Aren't you agitated?

Not at all. Just happy.

What's wrong with my family? Why do we have so few descendants?

Huh? It happens.

Good morning.

Hi.

Goodsoon, it's Amber.

Help yourself.

Thanks.

What kind of fish is this?

A tile fish.

Oh...

Auntie, could you bone it for us?

Sure.

How's Ruby's work schedule today?

She's on a day shift.

Oh...

Doesn't she look prettier with her hair tied like this?

Yes. Cute and pretty.

I think she's a real doll.

A doll doesn't look this old.

Old? You're a fresh young lady.

Aren't you busy tomorrow? It's Christmas Eve.

Who is it at this hour?

Maybe a delivery boy.

Go check who it is.

Who is it?

Hi, I'm Goodsoon's father.

Oh my gosh! I'll be dead if he finds you here.

Why? Hey!

Hey, what's wrong?

Ouch, Sunmi!

No, not that way. To aunties' room.

Gosh, what the heck?

I didn't do anything wrong!

Put away his utensils. Now.

Oh, ok.

Why did it take so long?

Because I wanted to open the door.

Good morning?

Hi. You didn't have breakfast yet, did you?

We are about to eat.

Can I have breakfast here?

Sure.

You should have called me in advance. What if we didn't have enough food?

A surprise.

Please wash your hands.

Oh, ok.

I'll eat later.

I am sorry.

It's ok.

Would you like to have pickled urchin eggs?

No thank you.

How's mom doing?

Good. I left before she woke up.

Dad, stop worrying. I don't make trouble anymore.

I didn't come here because I'm worried. I just missed you this morning all of sudden.

Did you?

I was so frightened.

I'll be fired if he finds Amber here.

Oh! Excuse me.

We'll leave soon. Let Amber finish eating.

Ok.

I'm nervous to death.

Don't worry. He won't see your room.

Dad, I have to go to school early.

Why?

I need to complete my homework at school. So hurry.

Slow down, or you'll suffer indigestion.

Don't worry. I can digest even stone these days.

Gosh, I'm starving.

I'll brush my teeth. Dad, get your own dessert at work.

Ok...

Ma'am, breakfast is ready.

Are you looking for something?

Yes. A dress suit.

Are you going to go out?

Yes.

My son will introduce his girlfriend.

Oh...

Dad. Hurry.

You don't need to wear it now. Just bring it out.

Ok.

I'll fetch the elevator.

Please take good care of her, her health and safety, ok?

Don't worry.

Good bye.

Bye.

Did they leave?

Yes. Please set the table.

Ok.

You can come out.

Ouch!

It hurts.

I didn't do anything wrong.

He's just very strict. Goodsoon rushed out so that you can have breakfast.

Come.

Ok.

Excuse me.

Yes.

Are you going to go out with your mother to introduce your girlfriend?

No.

But she's picking out what to wear, saying she has a meeting with your girlfriend.

I see. Thanks.

Drop me off here.

We're doing ok, so you can just focus on your study.

Yep. So happy today without Sunmi following me. She's a leech.

Why bothered? Just do your own work.

She'll be very shocked if she finds about Terry's disease.

Did you have breakfast?

Yeah.

Then come.

I will never have breakfast in your place again.

He wont' come again for awhile.

Are you choosing what to wear?

Yes.

What do you think of this?

Our meeting is not today. It's tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Yes.

Whatever.

Why don't you take a bath today for your best look tomorrow?

Ok.

I'll ask the maid to help you bathe.

Ok.

Hello?

Hi, it's me. I need your help.

Did your mother get worse?

No, but uh...

I asked her yesterday if I could introduce my girfirend, just to see her reaction.

Yes.

Then she told me to bring a fiancee, not a girlfriend.

But this whole morning, she's been picking out what to wear.

So I just told her the meeting is tomorrow, not today.

What should I do?

Bring her out tomorrow.

Will it be ok with you?

Of course.

She could make some mistakes.

I understand. Don't worry.

What time?

Anytime will be fine, but she might feel tired in the evening, right?

I think so.

Then how about lunch?

Sounds good.

What did he say?

I was not able to give it back.

Why? Did he refuse?

He's out of town.

To attend a funeral.

Ruby's both grandmas are still alive, right?

Yes.

What do you think if I treat them with lunch?

I think we could get to know each other.

I'll tell them. I think her grandma on mother's side will be ok.

What about the other on her father's side?

She's kinda unique. Very principled and straightforward.

Get in.

I'll walk.

Why?

I prefer walking.

How about going to a comic book store?

A comic book store?

Oh!

How are you?

Hi.

Were you heading for here?

Yes.

This is Kyle, living in my house.

How do you do?

Hi, how are you?

She's my ex-co-worker.

Oh, hi.

Your face is really small!

Is that a compliment?

I envy you.

Yours is small too.

I am Sunmi Myong.

I am Kyle Huntington.

My sisters told me to be nice to you.

I'm so touched and happy!

I think I married to the best in-law.

Do you mean it?

Sure.

Let's go see your parents tomorrow with this good news.

Shall we?

Yes. We can't make them lonely on Christmas Eve.

You're right.

Jade, we're gonna be kicked out of the business.

Oh no. Didn't they want to see you to raise the rent?

No.

They know our business makes a good profit, so they want to take it over.

Then what should we do?

Find another place.

It might not be easy to find one in a good location.

That's why we need to own a place.

The same can happen when we make a good profit in another place.

One beats the bush and another catches the birds.

Right.

We'd better hurry to find a new location.

Gosh, what's this smell?

Hey, did you wash your feet?

Huh?

They're not dirty.

Gosh, go wash the feet. Now!

They didn't sweat today.

Then how could they smell this bad?

Get up!

What's the big deal?

I smell nothing.

Nothing? Just get up. Now!

Your mysophobia gets worse with your age.

Mysophobia?

My goodness. You are foul-smelling!

Mom, you like fast-fermented bean stew.

And my feet smell is not as terrible as the smell of it.

Gosh, it smells so bad. Gosh!

Go wash! Go!

Hey, don't hit me!

Gosh, he spoiled the clean comforter with bad stench all over.

Can't believe this. Can't live like this.

What should I do?

Gosh!

Hey, were you in my room?

Of course I was.

I can't believe he's my own son...boy...

Mom, don't wear a thick make up.

I don't.

You're an old woman. Just wear lotions, not some shiny eye shadows.

Buy me a lotion before you nag me.

Your make-up looks so cheap.

To your eyes only.

My mother-in-law looks decent without make-up.

Oh, give me a break. Women need to take care of their looks as they age.

That doesn't mean you should wear whiteface.

Shut up. Get out.

Mom, please listen to me.

I do what I like to do, and you do what you like to do.

If you don't like the way I do, then go back to your home or to your mother-in-law's.

Should I get rid of all those cosmetics?

Oh, you look fabulous!

My friend's name is Jade Goong.

Jade Goong.

Yes. She's a writer.

Ok.

Under whose name is the reservation made?

Mr. Younggook Suh.

Here he is. Let me show you to a room.

Mother, this is Jade.

How do you do?

Mother, let me take your coat.

This way, mother.

Please have a seat.

You must be hungry.

I'm not going to Hungary.

I mean I'm hungry and you must be hungry too.

Terry is hungry.

Are you? Well. Let's get something to eat.

Mother, just have half of that.

If you fill your stomach with that, you can't enjoy the main dish.

I'm hungry. I'll eat all.

Just let her eat.

Let's share this.

I'd better put it away.

My hands are clean.

Doesn't matter. Excessive cleanliness may cause immune disorder.

Don't you think so, mother?

I don't know.

I'm glad you're eating well with Jade here.

Yummy.

Mother, try this.

Mother, what's her name again?

Bracelet.

Not bracelet. She's Jade, Jade Goong.

She's embarrassing, huh?

Not at all.

I gotta go pee.

I'll go with you.

This way, mother.

Mother, are you ok?

Let me help you.

Just one second. Let me clean this first.

Could you please step out for a second?

Mother, let me pull down with my eyes turned away.

Yes.

You scared me.

Let's go to a club tonight.

Hey kid, you'll be rejected at the entrance.

You can't tell a woman's age if she wears a make-up.

Also, not all short women look like in their teens, right?

Don't you know you have a baby face?

What if I am not rejected?

If you like to dance, do so at home.

Then will you dance with me?

Ok. I can do a strip show if you want.

Keep your words.

I will, if you're sure to see me naked.

Not sure, huh?

Just sing at karaoke today.

Mother, I'll do it for you.

Terry can do.

Can you?

Then I'll bone fish for you.

Please go ahead.

How do you like it?

Good.

I'll buy you nice lunch more often.

Bracelet.

Yes?

Enjoy.

Thank you.

Here. Try some fish.

Yes, father.

Are you out with your mom?

Yes. We're in a restaurant.

Is she eating well?

Yes, she is.

Terry will talk to him.

Father, mother wants to talk to you.

Yes.

Hello?

Hi. What do you have for lunch?

Beef.

Beef? Sounds good.

Bracelet took me to a restroom.

Bracelet can't take you to a restroom. Maybe you're wearing a bracelet.

I said it's Bracelet.

Mother, let me talk to him.

Father?

What is she talking about?

Well. I'll explain later at home. Bye.

Mother, have some juice.

Ok.

Please go ahead.

Ok.

Try this.

You go ahead, Younggook.

Ok.

It's awkward.

"Jedoug" sounds more familiar?

Yes.

Then call me whatever you like to.

This is our dessert menu.

She's my eldest daughter.

Oh.

Mother, do you like her more than your son?

I like both. Both are good-looking.

I'm afraid we cause you indigestion.

Don't worry.

I will be what I want to be.

I will be a Korean teacher.

Yes, Yes, you will be what you want to be.

You'll be a Korean teacher.

You are a good singer.

Now it's your turn.

Umm...

Mother, she must be hungry. Let her eat first.

Ok.

Never heard of that song.

Have you?

No.

Is Ruby at work?

She's off today.

Then go see her after work and give this to her.

This is hair band and hairpin.

She's not a little girl to like a hair band.

Do you know how expensive it is?

"Made in France"! She can't buy it just anywhere.

Really?

Girls are moved by this stuff. Tell her that you bought it for her.

Ok.

Did you have lunch?

Yes I did.

What did you eat?

Umm...

Did you want to become a Korean teacher?

Yes.

But you married father and gave it up?

Yes.

Jade is...

Not Jade. She's Bracelet.

Ok, Ms. Bracelet is...

Just call me Bracelet.

Remember I told you Bracelet was a writer?

Writing what?

Drama, your favorite.

Terry likes drama.

Her drama will be on air in a couple of weeks.

I see

I'm worried it might be boring.

Aren't they coming today?

We'll dine out tonight.

Myongdong used to be overcrowded with people on Christmas Eve.

Why don't you walk there tonight?

I don't want to spoil my memories.

The atmosphere has changed so much. It's not what it was anymore.

Mother?

I'll do it.

Please put your arms in.

I'll help you wear the coat, Ms. Bracelet.

Just call me Bracelet.

Ok.

It's cold. Stay inside until I bring the car.

I'm glad you enjoyed the meal.

I think I'm gonna miss you.

You have such a beautiful smile.

So is my Bracelet.

Let's go mother. Let's go.

Oh, get in the taxi there.

I'm fine. I'll take a bus.

I've already paid him.

Mother, take care.

You're not coming with me?

I'll go to my home.

Well, mother, it's cold. You might get cold.

I'll see you again.

Ok.

Thank you. I really appreciate.

I had a good time.

You know Ms. Boss, the one who bought me the car.

The designer in the past?

Yes. She wants to treat you.

Why?

Just because.

There's no "just because." There must be a reason.

I think she feels familiar with you after hearing me talking about my family.

Did you tell her about us a lot?

Not very much.

Good or bad?

Funny things.

But she's not in our league to talk with.

She feels very lonely since she has no family. I think she wants to meet you just casually.

Let's meet her. It's she who will treat.

When?

They are thieves.

Who?

The landlord.

Did he change his word?

Why not use the mannequin I bought you?

It's bothersome when I have to give you rides sometime.

Don't throw it away, though.

What are you talking about? I won't.

Don't you miss home?

I do. Once in a while.

To me, the American party culture doesn't look fun.

There are not many entertaining places in the U.S.

That's why people hold parties to get together.

Make sense. In Korea, we have many places to hang out like karaoke.

Community soccer club, fitness clubs.

Colateque, night club.

Indoor golf center, and what was that for men? Phone-dating or something?

Have you ever been there?

Those places are spiritually bad.

You sound like you're a "chosiknam (virgin/girly man)".

You don't know that term, huh?

I do.

Are you or are you not?

I'm neither girly nor macho. I'm just above that.

Where's Gangji?

Her father collapsed.

My goodness!

Then did she find it out?

Yes.

How is she? Didn't she get mad for keeping it secret from her?

She just kept crying.

You should comfort her. .

Tell her to think of the baby and be strong.

Ok.

Is he in a critical state?

He's just over the hump.

We decided to live with her parents for the present.

Good idea.

Do we have boxes? I think I have a lot to pack.

Make it in two bags. Joe grandma has big luggage bags.

How do you feel?

So, what was she talking about?

She met my friend.

So "Bracelet" refers to your friend?

Yes.

Why?

I don't know.

Then did he take her to the restroom?

It was a girlfriend.

Really? How long have you seen her?

Not very long.

Then invite her to our house.

But she could feel uncomfortable.

My head is itchy.

You shampooed yesterday.

Let her shampoo when she's willing.

Excuse me.

Yes.

She needs to wash her hair.

Ok.

That's my cell phone.

Did you search some locations?

No. I was busy this afternoon. I'll do it the day after tomorrow.

You know what the landlord said?

They said they would pay good money if we leave everything intact,

including the business signage.

So they're gonna take over our business indeed.

I think so. After all, money talks.

And?

I didn't answer to discuss with you first.

We'd better find a new location.

What if we can't find?

We'll see.

Is everybody out?

Coral packed his stuff and moved to Gangji's parents' house.

Why?

Aren't you gonna wash?

Huh?

Or I'll spray.

Let me watch this.

Hey!

Move your butt and go wash!

Let me watch this!

Get up! Now!

Now!

Can't you just leave me alone?

I got a headache because of your stench!

My father's smell was worse than mine, and you could endure it. .

Get out!

Now!

Gosh, so bad.

Will you keep riding me?

Hey, stop spreading the smell. Just go wash the feet.

Look, my feet are clean.

Clean. Very clean.

What the!

Hey!

Wait!

I can really pour this on you.

Do so. Pour it on me!

Gosh, I can't believe my only son goes against me in everything.

Sorry that we can't celebrate over a drink due to my health.

This is alcohol. Only yours is non-alcohol.

I like it.

What are you gonna do with your ex-boyfriend?

It'll take some time.

Korean women are so easily taken in by men currying favor with them.

Why don't you try currying favor with me?

I can't do any better to you.

I made pancake, acorn jello, noodles and more for you.

Don't you think I do much better to you than your own family?

And I also drive your car for free.

He's right, isn't he?

It's my mom.

Yes?

Where are you?

I'm having dinner.

How could you leave your sister alone on Christmas Eve?

Is Jade home?

Yes.

She said she had an appointment today.

Don't be too late. And bring a cake home.

Ok.

Hello?

It's Derry Kim.

Excuse me?

Woobin's manager.

Oh, hi. How are you?

I'm where I dropped you off the other day.

What's your address? Woobin sent you a cake.

Oh...

Stop crying. Our baby might be born a "crybaby."

Your father will be sad if you keep crying.

What should I do... what should I do...

Let's help him make the most of his remaining life.

So that we don't regret later.

I'm not ready to say goodbye to him.

He might wait until his first grandchild is born.

Let's hope and do our best, ok?

Stop crying.

My, what are all those?

Put it there.

Sorry, I'm late because of heavy traffic.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

I was going to invite you to dinner tonight but the shooting was delayed due to NGs.

Too bad... Merry Christmas! ? Woobin.

Sorry, we're out of cake.

What should I do?

Why not answer the phone?

Yes?

Are you home?

On the way.

Where are you?

Almost home. Why?

I'm in front of your house.

I see you.

Oh.

Darn, why is that baldhead always with her?

Hey.

Me?

When are you gonna be a monk? Why do you always bother...

Why do you always follow around my Ruby?

None of your business.

You remember Ms. Boss?

Yes.

He takes care of her with me.

And he drives her car as a part-time job.

Oh...

I need to talk to you somewhere.

Just talk here.

It won't take long.

I'm tired.

Then get in my car. Ok?

She says she doesn't want to go. Don't you know Korean? Then I'll speak in English.

What a weirdo.

This is Korea. If you want to speak English, go back to your country.

Don't speak English.

I said Don't, you baldhead.

If I'm a baldhead, then are you a quack?

If I find you around her again, you'll be sorry.

That's just what I want to say.

I'm thinking about how to teach you a lesson.

Challenge me to a duel, and I'm willing to accept it.

Afraid, huh?

Of course not!

Then let's do it today. There's good place up there.

My outfit is not appropriate. I'll come tomorrow in a proper wear.

I have extra clothes.

Forget it.

I don't wear rags like this.

What time will you come?

Duel like in the movie? Don't be childish.

People may watch you fighting if it's in daytime.

Ruby, I'm not good at fighting, and I'm not strong enough.

Then nighttime around this will be fine.

See you tomorrow. Call me.

I'll give you his number.

I have something to give you.

No thanks.

Are you sure you can fight?

What's the big deal?

You'll become a monk. And you can't beat a man.

A duel is different from a mere fight.

What is all this?

Be quiet. Prince is sleeping.

Woobin sent these.

Thank God. I was going to buy a cake but it's all sold out.

Wow, a top star's gift is something!

Enough for all our family members to enjoy, huh?

Sure.

What is this? Isn't this salmon?

Yes.

This is expensive.

Don't change clothes. Deliver some to grandmas.

Ok. Share this with Kyle too.

Don't worry.

Coral and Gangji will live in her parents' house for a while.

Amber!

Let them say whatever they want to say

Let them say whatever they want to say

Let them say whatever they want to say

Let them say whatever they want to say

Amber! Amber!

What is it?

Cake.

Cake?

Get up.

Why?

Taste a cake from Woobin Hwang.

He sent a Christmas cake present to Jade, Her Majesty Writer.

Look!

I don't eat cake but I'll try.

Wait, wait!

Why?

When you eat a fresh cream cake, you should taste the cream first, just like this!

Isn't it melting in your mouth?

Cake, champaign, and salmon.

Salmon, the big fish?

Yes. Very expensive.

He also sent her a high-priced French champaign.

Thanks to Jade, I got an honor to taste a cake from a top celebrity.

Did he bring it in person?

No, today was his last day to shoot her drama.

Umm. This is really good, not too sweet.

You're a good singer.

Why were you coy with us the other day?

I don't sing for just anybody.

Sing only for me.

Yep!

Making bed?

Preparing a party.

With your family?

And Kyle.

I want 2 run 2 u.
