(Episode 3)

Really?

Did Father met up with an accountant?

When I heard about it,

my heart started pounding like when someone made a goal...

during the soccer match between Korea and Japan.

It was unbelievable.

Goodness, your three misfortune is supposed to end this year.

So now, it's going to go well.

I wonder who he'd give the noodle place to.

Well, there's Min Joo.

I'm sure he's thinking about Baek Doo.

Gosh, that's the best thing.

He won't let us open up another branch.

When he dies, we might only get money for the land.

Unless Min Joo brings another chef.

Let her take it. It's hard to run a place where they serve food.

He'd give us the wedding hall in Sangdo-dong, right?

I shouldn't have asked him for that cafe.

He won't call it even with that, will he?

That was a gift for giving birth to Tae Hee, Hye Gyo, and Ji Hyun.

I guess they're the only three proper grandchildren of his.

Anyway,

they take a lot of tax, so he should launder it really well.

Mr. Park will do a good job, right?

He's on our side, you know.

I'm so curious about what he's planning to do.

So from now on,

do your best every day and hour.

What do you mean?

Spare the rod and spoil the child...

is a lie made up by stepmothers.

I'm saying...

it's natural for parents to spoil their favorite child.

So you want me to take extra care at his 80th birthday party, right?

Not just taking care of it. You need to bet your life on it.

Then it'd be game over.

Dad would make a decision on that day.

Okay. Let's win this!

Oh, no.

What?

Last week, Father wanted to see the kids,

but I didn't go using Tae Hee's exam as an excuse.

I told you to be good to him usually.

Go visit him tomorrow with something for him.

All right.

What do I do, honey?

What is it now?

He told me to come to make kimchi in spring,

but I put on a cast and fake that I broke my arm...

and got caught by Min Joo.

She hasn't told Father about that, has she?

Min Joo is a cut above the rest of us.

She graduated from Ewha Woman's University.

Why do you always bring that up?

Don't worry.

I will set the whole thing up...

from the place to singers for his 80th.

Gosh, my back and shoulders.

- Seriously. It hurts everywhere. - Goodness, Mother.

Take some rest,

- and have some watermelon. - Thanks.

Did you tuck the kids in?

They watched Pengsoo or whatever it is three times...

then finally fell asleep.

What glory am I here for to go through this?

I should've stayed in Mount Jiri with your dad.

Wait just a bit longer.

It won't be long until you see the glory.

What?

What does that mean?

Father went to see the accountant.

I think he's going hand all his fortune out to us.

Oh, my gosh. Thank goodness.

Your father-in-law must have made up his mind.

Oh, my goodness. Thank you.

We must have good fortune coming to us thanks to your prayers.

What prayers?

She went to the temple to light up the lantern last year April.

For their kids,

parents pray to everything and everywhere.

By the way,

when will he give it to you? What is he giving to you?

We don't know yet. Do not let anybody know about this.

It's top-secret that only we know about.

Fine. I got it.

Hold on a second.

It'd be good if you could buy your little brother...

a house in Sydney.

Mom, you're going too far.

Why would I buy Jun Sang a house?

You could buy it under your name, not Jun Sang's.

Hey!

He went all the way over there and sells gum at a supermarket.

Don't you feel sorry for him?

I wish I'm reincarnated as you in my next life.

You don't have to worry about food or children.

I'm going to work.

Hey. Let's talk.

You're going to bring Baek Doo in the noodle shop?

Somebody will have to take over the shop.

But he stormed out twice saying he can't handle it.

You should talk to him then.

You never know if he had changed his mind.

Geum Gang's not the type to be running a shop.

Han Ra is too young.

There's no one else but you. Help your brother out beside him.

Dad.

There are so many things to do in this household.

Why would you do work outside?

I told you already. I'm going to do my work.

So?

Should I give my shop I worked my whole life to build...

to a complete stranger?

Dad.

Why would a conglomerate get bad reviews?

It's because of their inheritance.

Just because you don't want to give it to a stranger,

you give it to your child who has no passion or will.

That is a problem.

Shut your mouth!

How dare you try to teach me!

I'm sorry.

But you should give up on me.

I can't do it.

I'm sorry.

You...

Whether you give it to Baek Doo or not,

you should get some rest now.

It's too much of a hassle for you to make broth every day at dawn...

at your age.

Leave me alone. All that can happen is me dying!

That punk!

Brat.

Honey, can you get my underwear?

I'll be right there.

Goodness me.

Here you are.

Gosh, I always forget to take my underwear...

when I take a shower.

Are you going to the office these days?

I'll take care of it. Don't worry.

Managing a building is more than just hiring a bookkeeper...

and doing nothing.

You should learn about the actual business...

- and study how... - I got you, honey.

By the way,

do you want to learn tango?

What's with tango all of a sudden?

It's about sharing your emotions with your partner.

It's excellent at strengthening your core muscles.

Is that what you've been learning lately?

On the fifth floor of Saerim Building,

a tango school opened recently.

The owner is a young woman who lacks business acumen.

The rent is behind three months now.

So?

I decided to take lessons instead of the rent.

She's charging me 100 dollars for an hour of private class.

It's only been a month, and it's good exercise.

It blew my stress away.

Do you get stressed too?

Sometimes.

It became much better since I started meditating with you.

Thank you.

Please don't tell that to Father.

And make sure you balance it out and make an entry of the rent.

I will.

Aren't you going to work? Why are you turning on the TV?

Give me five minutes.

You should pay attention to Father.

I'll do that.

Today, the weather will be cloudy nationwide.

In the afternoon, there will be a shower in Seoul, Gyeonggi,

Gangwon, Yeongseo, and inland of Chuncheong.

He is dense.

Hello, Ae Ri. What makes you call me so early?

Hello.

I felt bad about last time.

I'll find the banner at the print shop tomorrow...

and bring the invitation letters too.

It's okay.

Is that why you called me?

Well, I was wondering what you've prepared...

for Father's 80th birthday.

Why do you mention that?

Well, I was just curious.

Just so we don't get the same gifts, you know.

I asked you if you wanted to prepare it together. But you said no.

Well,

I've been thinking about it but haven't decided yet.

I see.

You're not preparing like a big surprise, are you?

No way.

I know you'll have better ideas than me.

I'm just trying to be sincere.

I'll come over to Father's house on the weekend with the invitation.

Please tell Father I'm coming.

Right, I'll see you then.

Why is she taking so much care suddenly?

There you go. Do you feel better now?

I felt like I was suffocating before.

You should let things be, Young Bae.

You're so busy making the broth each morning...

and frequently scold us at the restaurant.

Of course, it'll weigh down on your heart.

You're nagging too much for applying one acupuncture needle.

An 80-year-old man is what they call a living corpse.

You should be thinking about your last days.

I did go...

and see the accountant.

An accountant?

I should straighten up things now.

Oh, my.

What do you mean by that? Are you saying you'll give...

the house and the land to your children?

It's a difficult process.

I don't know how I'm going to distribute it among them.

I wish I could give it all to the eldest son,

so he can take care of his brothers.

You can't depend on Baek Doo. He's too soft.

Seol Ak is the trustworthy one.

What's trustworthy about him?

Well, they're all the same really, aren't they?

Forget it.

Why are you thinking about it so soon though?

Haven't you heard about old people...

who give it away too quickly and are neglected?

You should hold on to it until the end.

Hold on to it tightly.

Didn't you just call me a living corpse? My goodness.

I'm just saying that.

I know someone...

who is a far relative of my in-law's family...

who needs to take care of her mother-in-law with dementia.

All her children neglected her,

so whenever her children cleaned up the feces,

she gave them 300 dollars.

Then what happened?

Why do you ask?

Everybody was lining up to do it.

Those jerks.

That's why...

they say...

the older you get, the more money you need.

Haven't you heard what old people say these days?

They say if you're unlucky,

you'll live to be 100 years old.

If you're unlucky.

If you give it too early,

they'll thank you then and there.

Then they'll forget all about it soon after.

They think it's their money from the day they're born.

Are they your kids? How would you know?

You're all talk.

That's what they say.

They said so.

Take this out.

You're such an impatient man.

Why can't you just wait?

You talk way too much.

Why not?

I'm talking with my mouth.

It's not like it's costing me money or anything to talk with my mouth.

My goodness.

Gosh.

Look here.

Your hands are too tender for a man...

who had worked hard all your life.

- So soft. - What's that about?

Where do you think you are touching?

Oh, my gosh.

You almost broke my nose.

My nose hurts.

Look at you.

You're exaggerating.

It hurts so bad.

My goodness.

Why don't you just go out?

I would recommend two noodles...

and a dish of pyeonyuk.

Welcome. Oh, my!

You came.

It's always nice to see you.

You're always so elegant, Mrs. Yoon.

Thank you.

They are my friends from the gathering.

She's Ae Ri's sister-in-law.

She's the oldest daughter-in-law.

- Hello. - Good to see you.

I'll escort you to a room today.

Hyang Sook, can you show them to the room?

- Sure. - You should go inside.

Please follow me.

This way, please.

I hope you have a good time.

- Yes, we will. - Thank you.

He could've said thank you.

And what did he say?

It hurts so bad.

What happened, Auntie?

It's nothing.

Is Father inside the main house?

Ae Ri's mother is here.

Geum Gang's mother-in-law?

Yes, they're having a gathering.

You've got to make them pay today.

How could I?

They'll have a fee for that gathering.

How many times is this? We're running a business here.

She brings these ladies each time to have free meals.

How could she be so brazen?

She's a family.

You just be careful of Geum Gang's family.

You can't trust and be soft just because they're family.

Sorry?

Your dad...

Never mind. It's nothing.

Well, I should go and say hi.

My goodness.

- Oh, my. - Look at that.

It's so soft.

Alligator skin sure is different.

You know it's the best one...

if it has the head, tail, feet, and muzzle of an alligator.

It's worth several months of manager's salary in big companies.

She's a big spender.

I'm so jealous. Stop it now.

You're making me so jealous that I'll cry.

I'm always at home...

looking after my grandchildren.

I have nowhere to carry this around.

That's why I even went to a church with this.

Oh my.

Why did you go to a church?

To brag about your bag?

Not at all.

Just to pray for their success and also to brag.

You don't know how well I'm attending.

Last week, our pastor even called me.

Why did the pastor call you?

He asked me to become a deaconess.

I even forget prayers though.

In any case,

Ae Ri is such a good daughter.

She got married to such a wealthy family.

With all these people lining up every day,

the sales would be huge.

No kidding!

They have so many buildings. They even have land, right?

This building itself looks expensive.

Did you get something?

I don't know.

I'm not a family member. I don't care what they get.

Which son gets this shop?

Why are you being nosy in other people's lives?

I heard it is roughly ten million dollars.

But they have four sons in line.

- Ten million dollars? - Ten million dollars?

They are rich.

But...

the first son's wife looks like a tough cookie.

She looks smart.

That's not the point.

She doesn't have any kids when she's the first son's wife.

- Oh my. - That's too bad.

That's too bad.

On top of that,

the third son,

although he looks perfectly normal...

and even graduated from a prestigious university...

and studied abroad...

Oh, I shouldn't say more.

Why did you stop?

- Just tell us. - Yes, tell us.

He is 33 years old and single,

but he has a teenage daughter.

Oh gosh.

How old was he when he had the child?

Also, I don't know if her mother is alive or not.

She has never been seen since.

- That's bad. - Oh, my gosh.

It will be hard for him to get married then.

So he is already on his dad's bad side.

Anyway, I'm very sure Ae Ri has been very good.

- Right. - Her father-in-law,

without his grandchildren,

- has nothing fun in life. - That is very true.

That's good.

That is correct.

There's no better daughter-in-law like Ae Ri.

- Hello. - Please sit down.

Please sit down.

This is Ae Ri's Aunt-in-law.

- Nice to meet you. - Yes.

Please try some of this meat.

It's cooked nice and tender.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- It looks delicious. - How have you been?

I'm good as always.

Looking at you today,

I'm assuming you've been doing well.

What did Ae Ri do to be a good daughter-in-law?

She's just saying that.

No, it's not.

She's a one of a kind.

As Young Bae has no daughters,

she insisted to become one.

But then, she doesn't do anything when she comes home.

She sure acts like a real daughter of the family.

Do you know what else?

She worries that Young Bae might be tired.

She gets out of here as soon as she gets here.

She's barely here.

So she sure is a good daughter-in-law.

Auntie, I know you are very busy.

You're so nice and caring for giving us this meat.

Thank you.

Okay. Enjoy the food.

- Okay. - Thank you.

My goodness.

Oh, I almost forgot.

Your daughter should have some beef leg bone soup.

Pardon?

Beef leg bone soup?

I'm worried because her bones are weak.

Last New Year's Day, she sprained her ankle.

When we were making kimchi this year,

she broke her wrist.

I'm worried she might break her neck...

during the memorial service for her mother-in-law.

She is very weak, you know.

If you do make the soup,

make sure she eats anchovies.

- Yes, anchovies. - Got it.

Anchovies are great for the bones.

- Please enjoy. - Thank you.

- Hear that? - Anchovies.

- The meat is so tender. - Enjoy the food.

You have to eat anchovies.

Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?

I applied ointment. It will get well sooner or later.

But that guy is awesome.

He gave you 1,000 dollars on the spot.

He didn't just give it to me.

To get that money, I had to...

What's the word.

I had to put on an inspirational performance.

Method acting?

Yes, that.

If I did that in front of a camera,

I would have won first prize at the end of the year awards.

You did your best to get that money...

and you let So Young take it?

Ma'am, the radish kimchi has turned sour.

She sure is a leech.

How is it that all of your family takes everything from you?

That was fantastic.

You're turning masculine every day.

Wait. You're like a castrated bull.

You're losing your gender identity.

Thanks for the meal.

I'm keeping everything into account.

Yes, Director Bu.

Oh, yes.

After I sign the contract with Cheonho Wholesale Meat,

I'm going to drop by the office.

Can you postpone the meeting?

- I'll postpone it to four o'clock. - Okay.

The smell of blood here...

will be my last today.

But was that 1,000-dollar guy handsome?

- What if he was? - I'm going to get his number.

Don't tell me you didn't get his number.

I got his card number.

Stop talking nonsense and go make money.

What are you doing?

Is Majang-dong all yours?

Are you going to sweep up all the money here?

What is wrong with you, Mr. Bae?

How dare you get drunk in daylight and cause a racket?

If you have anything to say, come when you are sober.

You wench.

You dare to steal my client?

Do you think I'm going to let it go?

So what if you don't?

I didn't steal your client.

Who will refuse good quality meat at a cheap price?

You always get low-quality meat and sell it at a high price.

I know you bribe the factories...

and sell imported meat as Korean beef.

Everyone knows.

Gye Ok, stop it.

Then, what about you?

When you made connections with Busan Store,

you even went to a strip joint with Mr. Kim.

Mr. Bae, please stop.

I went because he wanted to.

I only went there to drink. What's wrong with that?

Nobody knows that.

You douchebag!

Do you know what everyone calls you here?

They say you're worth a cent!

It serves you right for acting cheap.

How can you be called a cent,

and not even 1 or 10 dollars?

What?

Shall I give you a cent?

- Gye Ok. - Go. It's okay.

Hey, you wench.

I'll give you a cent.

What are you doing?

What is wrong with you today?

Stop right now.

- Stop it. - You wench, are you crazy?

- Just stop it. - Let go of me.

- Mr. Bae, please stop. - Hey.

- Hey! - Not that. No.

(Brilliant Heritage)

Inheritance?

The time has come.

- Let's break up. - Honey!

Why are you interfering with my love life?

Yes, it is 30,000 dollars.

Congratulations, CEO Gong.

- Hello. - Nice to meet you.

- What happened? - What's wrong?
