(Episode 4)

(CEO Jeon Jin Hee)

My niece must be very busy.

I haven't heard from you.

I will see you in one hour at the place we last met.

(CEO Jeon Jin Hee)

Yes, CEO Jeon.

Tell Assistant Manager Kang from Product Planning...

that we have dinner tomorrow...

and that someone I want to introduce will be joining us,

so she should be aware.

You know the time and place, right?

Yes. I will deliver your message exactly as you said.

Let's see if she is just playing dumb...

or if she is truly cunning.

Goodness...

That's a nice car.

Jin Sook!

It seems you still haven't quit drinking.

I don't have any friends other than that.

What do you want? Money again, I assume.

A nice property came up in Seongsu-dong.

Have you not quit gambling either?

What?

That has been your lover your whole life.

I'll send you my account number, so wire it by tomorrow.

This is the last time.

That's what I want too, you brat.

She is still the same. So rude.

Disgusting.

(My Son Do Yun)

(My Son Do Yun)

Hey, son.

Mom, I just woke up and saw your text.

But you want me to pick up clothes at the department store?

There is an important gathering tomorrow evening.

I ordered them under your name,

so go try them on and pick what you like.

What kind of gathering is it?

You will see when you get there.

Are you feeling okay?

You should go to the hospital and get an IV drip.

I was just tired from a lack of sleep.

I'm fine now.

That's a relief.

I will see you at home tonight.

Okay.

Goodness.

What's going on with you? Skipping work and all.

I know. I guess days like this happen.

But what are you hiding behind your back, Se Na?

Ta-da.

Hey, put that away right now.

What do you think? Does it not make you excited?

I said, put it away.

I designed and custom-ordered it myself.

Do Yun, don't be like that. Take a close look.

Does your company have any plans to launch an underwear brand?

If you do, buy my designs. Please?

- Why you... - Ouch.

I told you to prepare to study abroad, not do useless things.

You are still wet behind the ears.

Well, if I dry out, I will die.

Don't be like that and take a serious look.

Get lost.

He just looks down on me because I'm young.

There will definitely come a day when you'll find this useful.

When I get famous?

You won't be able to buy it even if you want to.

I'll shove my early works right in your face.

That's the taste.

(Mi Mi's Chicken Soup)

What? Su Ah's mom isn't home?

They moved.

What are you talking about?

They moved? Why?

And without saying a word?

Tell me about it.

Ri Ja, don't say a word to Mother.

I should find out what on earth is going on before telling her.

There is no need to worry her. She has high blood pressure.

Okay.

(Mi Mi's Chicken Soup)

They're so weird. How could they just move...

without discussing it when they know who bought them the house?

It's unbelievable.

Why is there never a peaceful day?

Gosh, so you just brought it back?

You should have at least left it at Dae Chi's officetel.

He told me not to call because he's busy.

And does he even eat at home?

That's true. He goes to work at dawn...

and comes home when the stars are out.

Working for a large corporation really drains a person, right?

But what's going on with Su Ah's family?

They didn't ruin the Taekwondo studio too, did they?

There you go again. Always jinxing things.

All right. Sorry.

Mi Seon and Gang Nam like these best.

How sad...

Mother?

Mother, what medicine are you taking?

Is something making you feel uncomfortable?

It feels like someone is poking this side of my head...

with a whole pack of needles.

Oh my, is Gang Nam's family doing well?

What happened to the container? Why did you only bring the cloth?

If you gave them the side dishes,

shouldn't you have brought the empty container back?

Oh, well, they weren't home. So I just came back.

Oh, I left the container in the fridge at the store, Mother.

Oh, you.

I guess your brain doesn't work as well as you get older.

If they weren't there, you could have left it at the security office.

Why would you carry it all the way back and hurt your shoulders?

I know, right?

Mi Mi.

Yes?

I just keep liking you more and more.

The more I see you, the more I like you.

Mother, why are you saying this all of a sudden?

What do you like so much about me?

My looks? My vitality?

Well, when I hear other grandmothers talk,

they say their daughters-in-law don't even ask...

and are just busy throwing away all their mothers-in-law's things.

But you don't throw away a single wrapping cloth of mine carelessly,

and for years now,

you wash it and hang it to dry, again and again.

I don't know how I got so lucky.

I'll do even better, Mother.

Manager Kang, how many outfits are there in total today?

It's a total of six outfits.

Please deliver them all to my house.

Thank you.

Once you change, I will get them ready and deliver them home.

They will arrive by this evening.

Thank you.

Goodness.

What are you doing here?

Oh, I'm 15 minutes early.

I should have a reservation.

You're... Wait...

If you don't mind me asking, what is your name...

I am Cha Do Yun.

What? He was a VIP at our department store?

I couldn't sleep all night because of you.

Because it was so unfair.

- Oh, you had a customer. - I was just about to leave.

Here, Da Mi.

No, ma'am, you do this every time.

While I am on my cruise trip,

I won't be able to see you for two months,

- so take care of yourself. - Thank you.

Have a wonderful trip, and I will see you again.

Yes, let's do that.

Goodbye.

Your name is...

really Cha Do Yun...

Yes, that's correct.

First, how about this item?

I will try it on first.

But my arms and legs are a bit long.

Sir, you can hand me your jacket.

All right.

What is this?

Oh, my gosh!

I thought it would be too short, but it fits perfectly...

Wait, why is this here...

Please give it to me.

Yes, of course.

It did come out of your pocket, sir.

What a pervert.

Darn it.

Don't get the wrong idea. I'm not a weird person.

Isn't it weird to carry around sexy women's underwear...

in your pocket?

First of all, I'm saying this isn't mine.

I'm sure it's not.

- Because it is women's underwear. - That is not what I mean.

It's not just any woman's underwear. This belongs to...

And the reason why this came out of my pocket is...

I don't want to know at all, sir.

The suit looks really good on you. Would you like to purchase this one?

It belongs to my younger sister.

That's even weirder.

Would you like to purchase it?

If you really can't believe me,

I can bring my sister here, and we can talk face-to-face.

Should I?

Sir, would you like to purchase it?

- Sure, I will. - You can just change and come out.

I have never seen such a crazy guy in my whole life.

Cha Se Na.

Just wait and see what I do to you today.

I will pack a new one and have it delivered to your home.

- If you wait a moment... - No, just pack this one.

I will take it with me right now.

Nice. Thank you.

Yes, sir.

(K Department Store)

Thank you, sir. Have a good day.

Don't ever come back. Never ever come back.

(K Department Store)

(Health Checkup Voucher, 3,000 dollars)

Goodness, how much is this worth?

One, two, three...

It's 3,000 dollars?

Thank you, ma'am. Thank you so much.

I hope you only have smooth sailing on your cruise...

and that you have nothing but bright and sunny days.

(Mi Seon)

Mi Seon, what happened?

If you say that and then keep ignoring my calls,

what am I supposed to do?

Let's meet after work, Da Mi.

I have something to tell you in private.

Mr. Kang Dae Chi. Avoiding my calls all day...

isn't going to solve the problem, is it?

The current amount you have borrowed from our bank,

including interest, is a total of 87,000 dollars.

Yes. I apologize. I was busy with work.

But still...

Isn't it a bit much to put a bank levy on me?

You have to give a person room to breathe.

I have a lot of debt in other places too.

If we cannot confirm your repayment by next week,

we will also place a levy on the officetel...

you are currently leasing.

Someone else already put one on it.

Do whatever you want, whether you put a levy on it or not.

Se Na. How many times have I told you?

With these persimmons, you have to bite into the soft part...

- like this to really taste... - It just gets all over your mouth.

I don't really like it, Grandma.

I told you we should just have ice cream.

Kids these days don't know how to eat good food.

Oh, you poor things.

- Hey, Cha Se Na! - What?

Oh my, Do Yun, I thought you had the day off today.

Where have you been?

Yes, Grandma, I went to the department store.

What?

- I need to see you. - You are looking at me right now.

I mean I need to see you privately on the second floor.

No, if you have something to say, say it here.

Are you sure?

- Don't regret it. - No, not at all.

My goodness. What is that?

Oh my. Oh, how hideous.

Why are you carrying something like this around, Do Yun?

Se Na put it in my pocket, Grandma.

What?

Do you know how humiliated I was at the department store today?

So you are saying my artwork...

has finally been revealed to the world?

Wait, you mean...

you made that, Se Na?

- Yes, Grandma. - What?

I really want to create an underwear brand with my name on it,

and I am going to make it happen.

So, what do you think, Grandma?

You really want to try it on too, right?

Well, aside from it being hideous,

who would even wear something the size of a palm?

These days, women wear this kind of underwear...

for their own satisfaction.

Am I right, Do Yun?

I don't even want to exchange...

a single word with you right now.

When Mom and Dad get home from work,

I'm going to tell them you're not preparing to study abroad...

and are making trash like this. So be prepared.

Why is making pretty underwear something to be criticized for?

I'm going to create the Victoria's Secret of Korea.

Right. Keep acting up like that.

We will see who ends up regretting it.

Oh, right, Seung Yun... Do Yun, give your brother a call.

I need to know if he is coming tomorrow...

or the day after tomorrow.

Yes, Grandma.

(Do Yun)

Hey, Do Yun. It has been a while.

Hey.

Seung Yun, you stayed up all night again, didn't you?

Your voice sounds like it.

It's just because of the work here.

How's Grandma?

She is right next to me. Hold on.

- Grandma, it's Seung Yun. - Okay.

- Gosh. - Grandma, it's me, Seung Yun.

Oh, my, my eldest grandson.

Oh, it is my precious eldest grandson.

So, have you eaten?

Of course.

Grandma, you know I get really angry if I skip even a single meal.

You know that very well.

Seung Yun.

Yes, Grandma.

When are you coming?

I'm asking because I want to go meet you at the airport.

I arrive the day after tomorrow, Grandma.

You get motion sickness, Grandma, so please don't come out.

Just rest comfortably at home, and as soon as I arrive,

I will go see you as fast as I can.

Will you be able to find your way home by yourself?

Come on, Grandma, is Seung Yun a child?

I am sure Mom will send a car for him.

Se Na, tell your mom...

not to come out to meet me. Tell her I will take a taxi.

- What? Why a taxi? - What?

Seung Yun, knowing my mom's personality,

she will never do as you say.

And the person looking forward to your return the most,

next to Grandma, is my mom.

Yes, that is right.

Right.

Seung Yun.

Yes, Grandma. When I return,

is there anything else besides cheesecake I can get for you?

Grandma already has everything she needs.

Seung Yun, for my gift...

A scarf.

A scarf? You want a scarf, Grandma?

Get me a silk scarf with small floral patterns.

Your father, Jun Sung, used to love it when I wore a scarf.

He'd always say how pretty his mom looked.

Yes, Grandma. I'll buy you the prettiest one.

Make sure you eat well.

I'll see you the day after tomorrow, Grandma.

I love you.

Okay. Oh, my sweet boy.

Yes, my eldest grandson.

You must be thrilled, Grandma.

You're always rapping about...

"my eldest grandson" and "my Seung Yun."

Yes, of course I am.

You are all my beautiful grandchildren,

but the eldest grandson is different.

He is the central root and the pillar of this family.

So, what does that make us? Twigs?

What?

How can leaves grow and bear fruit without twigs?

Grandma, go inside and lie down. I'll make the bed for you.

Throw that away right now, got it?

- Let's go. Okay. Oh, my. - Grandma.

Do Yun.

Guys, did you hear what Grandma just said?

She called me a twig.

Even though I'm just a twig in this house,

I'll be a strong root and pillar for you.

Just wait a little bit.

(Jeon Jin Hee)

(Jeon Jin Hee)

This is just the beginning.

(24 years ago)

I will uncover the truth.

Did you wait long?

I'm sorry, Mi Seon.

I was closing out the register, but the numbers kept being off.

How have you been, Da Mi? You're right on time.

Have some tea.

- I was going to buy it for you. - It's the thought that counts.

I know how much you hate spending money in places like this,

you penny-pincher.

Well, we've lived as a family for a long time.

I think spending money on coffee and tea...

is the biggest waste of money in the world.

And then taxi fare. Right?

You tremble over a single dollar.

You're so different from Su Ah's dad.

That's a relief.

He's a bit generous and affectionate.

Not affectionate, just careless.

Even when you're broke.

You fought with Gang Nam, didn't you?

That's why neither of you came to Mom's birthday.

Da Mi.

- Yes? - Su Ah's dad and I...

got divorced.

What did you just say?

You did what?

We got divorced.

We split up.

(Mission: Mompossible)

Mom, I am going to be 40 soon.

Please stop hitting me. It really hurts.

You blew your money, got divorced, and dare to say that?

You little punk.

- Are you sure it will be okay? - About what?

Being in the same neighborhood, you are bound to run into each other.

Kang Da Mi, my one and only sister, please lend me 200,000 dollars.

Did you just say 200,000 dollars?

Not 200 dollars, not 2,000 dollars, but 200,000 dollars?

Hey! Are you nuts?
