Original subtitles

We have to keep the vegetables in the fridge.

Okay.

We're closed... my gosh.

Oh, my.

You're the fried chicken place owner.

What brings you here at this hour?

Well...

um...

We're here to give you a warning.

A warning?

[ Episode 15 ]

A warning...

What kind of warning are you speaking of?

Ever since you opened up,

we've been observing you for a few days.

Yes, please speak, ma'am.

How shall I say this...

Your style of running a business is a bit different from...

You don't suit us at all.

Very low class.

Speaking of class, how would you say specifically?

First, the entrance sign.

The drawing is a bit too much.

Oh, the one outside?

We used to use it at our previous store.

It's not that old.

It'd be a waste to throw out a perfectly good sign.

We should use it that way.

Right.

My goodness, so you will continue to use that?

What could I do?

It'd cost money to make a new one.

We spent all our money to open up the store.

I'm dying here.

You ladies won't collect money for me, would you?

Well, and...

your solicitations outside...

Please stop doing that.

I don't know what kind of business you were involved in before,

but we don't do business around here.

Why? Why not?

If you don't solicit for business, where else would you do it?

The 21st century is an era of PR.

Only accepting customers who walk into your store.

- Gosh! Too old-fashioned. - Right.

Well, it's good to be aggressive for your business, but...

- It's good then, right? - Yeah, right.

And what else, ma'am?

Your clothes and hair!

I hate that the most!

At a restaurant like this,

why would you show your bare flesh...

It's not a room salon, you know...

That's what I'm saying.

Room salon or not...

It's not a school. We can't wear what we want?

Then people who live in the market

must wear colorful elastic pants with a tight perm like that?

Is that your uniform?

Fashion is about satisfying yourself.

It's not like we're wearing swords on our outfits.

I'd like you to respect our individuality.

Oh, for your information,

as for makeup. What do I do?

I grew up in the mountains. I have too many dark spots.

It would've been nice to be born with

porcelain-like skin like her,

but what could I do? I have to cover it all up.

Her sister. I'm sure you know how I feel, right?

Me?

So? Did I answer your questions?

I tried to answer them as well as I can.

Gosh, ladies, you must be tired.

Close up your stores and go rest.

My gosh, look at your dark circles.

You must be so tired.

Be careful on your way out.

- Girls, wrap it up. - Yes, Unni.

- Finish mopping. - Yes.

Clean, clean.

Back to our side dishes.

Aigoo, I can't believe the time.

Time to close. See you tomorrow!

I was organizing my merchandise.

I'm off, Unni.

Hey!

I got swept away because of you,

and lost my self-respect as the chairman's wife.

I won't step forward anymore. Don't push me into it again.

Why are you blaming me now?

Did she eat up a shaman statue or something?

How could she have such intense energy?

I have never!

Gosh!

No, Director.

It's no use even if you say that.

We won't go on the air.

We won't change our minds. Please?

Oh, what's this smell?

The stew must be burning.

Director, I'll call you back later. I'm sorry.

No.

No, no, no.

You didn't do anything wrong, Director.

No, no. We're just...

No, it's not like that.

What is this sme... sound?

I hear some noise outside.

I think someone is here, Director.

I'm sorry. I'll call you back. My apologies!

Hey.

I thought my ear would melt.

How many hours has he been talking between you and me?

The director won't give up.

I know.

No wonder he's called the Whiny Director.

I don't think he'll give up easily. What do we do?

What else could we do?

Are you saying we go on the air in this situation?

Well, that's not it.

Shall we just...

reveal everything to the Director?

Are you serious?

Don't you know how close Mother and Director are?

This is on a different level compared to Jae Seok's issue.

For Director,

who do you think is closer to him? Between Mother and us?

Geez.

The taping starts next week.

Just hold your ground until then.

They'll find someone else not to mess up the taping.

Geez, I'm so stressed out.

The stew...

It's reduced down. I couldn't even eat.

I thought you ate earlier.

Eating again?

Oh...

Shi Woo didn't want to eat hospital food.

She brought food from home.

But she packed too much and asked me to help out.

But I couldn't eat much because of the director.

Other people could mistake you as her husband.

Geez, if Shi Woo's dad heard that, he'd throw his punch.

Shi Woo's dad?

I mean...

That noona tends to take care of the people around her.

When we were in the church choir,

she'd pack sandwiches and gather everyone...

- I didn't say anything. - I know...

So...

why am I making excuses with you?

Geez...

I'll start promoting seriously starting today.

In business,

starting is half the battle, and the rest is PR.

I'll pass out my business cards and...

Wow!

You seem like a real businessman!

- Cool! - Thanks, but Da Hee...

don't call me a businessman.

Call me a CEO.

I like that better.

Hey, to look the part,

should you dress in a nice suit?

No, Mom. I think this is better.

I was told I look like a thug in a suit.

My goodness. Who says?

- What jacka** said that? - Seo Young's mom.

You listen to her so well on that one.

Oppa listens to Hyun Kyeong very well.

That's why they divorced at once.

Should I help you with your promotion?

- To get people's attention? - I'm good, ahjumma.

- Just take care of the kids. - Ahjumma...

Gosh!

What are you saying?

No one calls me ahjumma when I'm out.

Son, do I look like an ahjumma?

No, you're pretty, Mom.

Right? I'm pretty, huh?

Gosh, you have good eyes.

Unlike someone I know.

Whoa, this is why brainwashing is so scary.

Oh, yeah. Mom.

Did you leave this in front of my office? Along with a pot of plants?

No, I don't even know where your office is.

I thought you came by using the business card.

Hey, did you guys?

- No. - It's not me either.

I'd make sure you know it if I went.

True.

Then...

No, no...

It can't be. I must be nuts. What am I thinking?

- No, no. - What are you mumbling about?

Stop talking and eat fast.

Your mom and I have to leave for the association meeting.

- Hurry up and eat. - Yes.

[ Song * Hee, Balance for this month: 4,732,812 won ]

Four... four million won?

Gosh...

When did I spend so much?

Oh, the restaurant!

Gosh!

You crazy b****!

Gosh, you crazy nut.

Does your pride pay for your credit card?

I have to pay for my living expenses soon.

What should I do?

Now, now...

You're aware of our regular disinfection tomorrow.

One more thing.

It's about a new membership for our association.

Building A.

- Unnis' Kimbap. - What?

Unnis' Kimbap?

You want us to approve their membership?

- I oppose. - Me, too.

I mean...

she has no intention of keeping our market regulations or rules.

Why should we?

Does she think she can push around our association?

I know!

Geez, why are you being so small-minded?

We're all one family. If you could take it easy...

We can't take it easy! That's why we're doing this!

Do you know what she said?

Fashion is about satisfying oneself. Respect her individuality or whatever.

Just tell her to play all by herself individually.

Why does she want to join our association?

Aigoo, lower your voice. Why do you step up?

Geez, come on.

I don't really want to be considerate either.

But if she doesn't join us,

it's tough to run her business.

Let's have her join for now

and close the gap in our opinion differences.

How about that?

Yes, we can't isolate them. Disapproving membership is too much.

If we mess up, the rumor will spread that we're controlling our turf.

So, let's be peaceful...

You keep your peace!

Then, let's come up with some conditions.

Run their business following our rules

and get their promise to cooperate.

- Then we can rethink. - That's right.

Get their promise.

That's right. We should.

What?

Conditions?

No, thank you.

No, if your association is one-way and oppressive,

we will refuse first.

I won't join you.

Why, Unni? What is he saying?

If we want to join the association,

we have to accept what those ahjummas said.

If not, they won't let us in.

Gosh, they're so childish.

Is the association a high position? Give me a break.

They realize that we ran bars

and they're looking down on us.

Geez.

The monk said no one is above or below another person.

How dare they say we're vulgar?

Gosh, Unni, forget it.

- Just ignore them. - Yeah.

Just ignore them.

Gosh, I'm getting my fighting spirit for the first time in a long time.

At this point, I'll just go head-on.

What did she say, Young Dal?

She won't accept?

She says forget it. She just hung up on me.

My goodness!

Oh, my gosh! What a joke!

Oh, my world.

She hung up on you, Young Dal?

Wow, I knew she was no easy foe,

but she's coming out very strong.

She won't join the merchant association

and will run her business here?

Gosh, she doesn't know any better.

Gosh, that woman. So stubborn.

Anyway, she's scary.

She won't give in even with a threat.

Unni, what do you mean a threat? Is this a threat?

We're giving her a chance.

Aigoo, you sure speak up in front of me.

You had your tail between your legs with her.

My gosh, when did I do that?

I didn't lower my tail.

It's just that she was so darn ignorant.

You avoid poop because it's dirty, not because you're scared.

- You're here. Hello. - Good morning.

- Hello! - Good morning, everyone!

I can't get caught!

Oh, wait.

- Excuse me. - Hello, hello.

Excuse me, let me get on!

Hello.

Director, hurry!

Aigoo, you're young. Definitely fast.

- Thanks. - No problem.

Hyung.

Dr. Yoon.

Director, hello. Good morning.

- Hello. - Hi.

Na Hee, you came in early.

Hi. Good morning.

Did you turn off your phone?

- What phone? - What else? Your cellphone.

The director will call us all day.

What's with you brothers?

Do you have an eye infection?

Leave your phone off and go out for lunch.

That Whiny Director is very persistent.

You never know when he'll barge in.

Whiny. He's persistent.

Good day!

I have to go.

How could you be like this?

Why is it so difficult for you to accept my request?

I wasn't going to take it this far.

Take a look at this.

We've been losing money since last year.

Why?

Dr. Yoon.

You spoke of a good environment for treatment

needing aggressive investment and whatnot.

So, we expanded our hospital rooms.

Dr. Song!

You said we should change.

So, we changed to an expensive pharmaceutical company.

What?

I'll get the return that equals my investment?

Bulls***.

Is this what I get in return?

You shouldn't be like this.

So, the Chairman called her.

Do you know what the kimbap woman said?

She doesn't need the merchant association or whatever you call it.

I've been around the block.

I'll show you what looking down looks like.

That's what she said. She wants to duke it out.

Oh, my gosh. Really? For real?

Of course, for real.

I'm telling you as I heard it. I don't make things up.

Didn't that woman go bonkers?

If she's been around the block, how far did she go?

Back in my heyday, I controlled quite a few lowlives in Wangsimni.

- What the heck? - I know!

Hello.

You're out early.

- Hello. - Whoa...

Look at the flowers on these unnis.

The flowers are huge.

It's the best.

Have a good morning.

- Have a good day. - Good day!

Whoa...

They're laughing.

Gosh, seriously.

They're mocking us, huh? Right?

Yeah.

I'm so offended.

S***.

Whoa, did you see their facial expressions?

So brutal. Really.

I got so scared, Unni.

They're scary, giving us the stink-eye together.

Hey, don't get scared.

Fighting is all about the spirit.

The minute you're intimidated, it's game over.

More they're like that, we should relax and smile.

- Got that? - Okay.

I got it, Unni.

Yes, we're pro at smiling.

Gosh, those puny ladies. So annoying.

Especially that "buttonhole."

Gnawing at us annoyingly.

Gosh, I'm so offended.

Hello! I'm from Good Action Company.

Hit, get beat up, die, rise from the dead.

We do everything except what we can't do.

Please call us. Thank you.

Oh, PD Choi!

Do you remember me?

I did the general stunt for Lee Seo Jin.

I heard you're working on a historical drama.

Our guys look like war captives without any makeup.

If you use two, I'll give you one more guy.

Two plus one. Isn't it great?

Thank you in advance.

We're Good Action Company! Thank you!

Aigoo, Director Jo!

Don't carry heavy things. You'll hurt your back.

Who am I?

Good Action Company!

I had to poop in three intervals in case it would plug up again.

What are you doing?

Are you a caterpillar?

Aren't you getting up?

I'm freezing.

My body is achy like someone beat me up.

You, too?

I feel so tired and itchy everywhere.

Hey, scratch.

Geez, is it because of too much mold?

You saw that ceiling, right?

When I used to rent a room,

I've seen a Korean map on the ceiling, but never a world map.

If it's that bad,

it's all rotten under the wallpaper and floors.

Could we go back to the spa?

- They have warm floors at least. - No, we can't.

Didn't you see how happy Hyungnim looked?

And money. How about the money?

What are you doing?

- Hello, Hyungnim. - Hello.

Did you sleep well?

- So, were you able to sleep? - It feels like heaven.

- It's very cozy. Great, Hyungnim. - Really?

You guys sleep well on the floor, huh?

That's great.

Hey, let's eat and train.

Put your bedding away. I'll make ramen.

Yes, Hyungnim!

Stop, stop, stop.

Hello, good day.

It's none of your business if I'm having a good day.

You can't throw trash in here.

I heard it's for the market merchants.

It's for market merchant association members.

You're not a member.

Then where do we throw our trash away?

- Come again. - Thank you.

Hey, you left too much. I'll pack it for you.

No, no.

- It's okay. - It's okay. We ate too much.

Come again! Study hard!

Gosh, people in this area don't eat much.

Hey!

You were out playing because you don't want to do the dishes, huh?

No, I didn't, Unni.

I went outside the market to throw away the trash.

The one inside is for association members only.

We're not allowed.

- Going forward. - What?

Unni!

The merchant association won't accept our coupons.

They only accept ones from the members.

What do we do about this?

We have quite a few customers who use coupons.

What do we do, Unni?

Gosh, seriously. So petty.

Give it to me.

Seriously. This isn't even funny.

Take this.

That's not within my power.

Then who has the power over this?

We can't use the trash bins in the market.

Fine.

Let's say we walk further for exercise.

But while running a business in the market,

you can't accept our coupons? Isn't that too petty?

You're basically saying we can't run our business.

I understand.

I do, but...

those coupons are issued and managed by the association.

I can't do anything about it.

Come on. Seriously. I'm speechless. I can't believe it.

Gosh, I'm so hot. Hot.

While we're on the subject, let me tell you this.

If you can, just give in and join us.

In a marketplace,

it's tough to run a business when you piss off the women.

- You should look into the future. - Yeah, right. How touching.

Don't pretend you care.

It's no use trying to stand your ground that way.

Today is our regular disinfection.

If you act this way, they won't disinfect your store.

- Are you okay with that? - Are you threatening me?

It's not a threat.

If you accommodate a bit,

I'll mediate for you. That's what I mean.

The ladies of this market aren't bad people.

They're pissed off momentarily. They don't hold a grudge.

So, if you give in a little...

Even during the Japanese occupation,

I heard they awarded themselves with "Best of..."

- What did you say? - In conclusion,

you won't accept our coupons.

Forget it then.

I understand.

Gosh, geez.

What kind of woman is she to be so stubborn as an ox?

Geez.

I was wondering why you weren't coming in. So...

did you guys argue again?

Aigoo, argue over what?

Aigoo!

Whatever! I've done all I can.

It's over. The end!

But that woman...

she resembles you more I look at her.

Her features and even her stubbornness.

People might think you two are siblings.

Hey.

Resemble where?

Where do we look alike?

This, this!

- S***! - Anyway!

- What? - What do you mean?

Shouldn't we have a discussion?

Gosh.

I've been thinking all day.

We have two options.

Either go on the TV show.

- Nonsense. - Or else...

just reveal everything to the Director.

Tell him we can't do this because of our situation.

We can't do that.

Once Director finds out, it's a matter of time for Mother to know.

Then, my mom will find out right away.

Director isn't capable of confidential information.

What do we do then?

Do you have another way to persuade him besides the divorce?

Director called me 14 times just today.

He won't give up.

Should I just quit my job?

Are you serious?

I can't justify that.

I just said it out of frustration.

I'm not ready to tell either.

But...

I think we're at the dead-end.

I wonder if we should get it over with when we're pushed into it.

I know it's harder for you to reveal.

Yeah, Mother's shock...

It will be huge.

But...

we have to face it at least once.

Think it over carefully.

I'll think about it, too.

Thank you!

Aigoo...

No, no!

- Stop! - Pass this store.

What?

We can't skip this store after spraying other stores.

It doesn't matter. Pass!

Next store. Pass!

Next store.

Gosh, hurry!

Unni.

They really passed us.

They really won't spray our store.

That's what they said.

They wouldn't say what they don't mean.

Hey, leave it and come here.

- Would this work? - It's the strongest one.

Is it correct to stick it like this?

Over here?

Unni, you know...

Could we give in about now and join them?

The trash bins are so far and

the customers are inconvenienced without the coupons.

Yeah, Unni.

They even say crawling is winning.

You mean losing is winning.

Not crawling.

Same difference.

Hey, we're at war already.

I took out my sword.

I should cut a radish

or that high and mighty association's turf.

I should cut something off.

It's too inconvenient.

Yeah, I think we'd be the ones to lose out.

You guys are saying the same thing as someone I know.

Hey, if everyone were like you,

our nation's independence would've never happened.

[ Unnis' Kimbap ]

Just wait and see.

I'll resist to the end and protect our style.

You think I can't do it?

No. You will.

What's going on? You're watching TV?

You're not studying today?

Yeah.

I'm taking a break today.

Oh? Me, too.

You're always taking a break.

Is it okay for you to do this?

Aren't you getting into trouble by Aunt?

Ji Hoon, I don't have to study anymore.

My dad is the CEO.

Right, Auntie?

Gosh, I'm a bit distressed today.

Let's watch TV quietly.

Why are you distressed?

Tell me. I'm good at resolving my friend's problems.

Oh, yeah?

- Do you have any money? - Yeah, 18,000 won.

Just watch TV quietly. Not a peep.

Grandma and Grandpa are very late today.

I have to see Grandpa before I go.

Aigoo.

Did you guys eat?

My gosh! Seo Young is here, too.

Grandma, Grandpa, welcome home.

Grandpa, could I request a meeting?

I have something to say to you.

Sure. Come in, come in.

I don't know if you've heard,

but I got a pretty good grade in my last exam.

Aigoo, really? What grade did you get?

The grade isn't that important, Grandpa.

It's more important how much I improved, right?

So, while at it, I'll aim for five points higher next time

and work hard at it.

Aigoo, yes.

That's very encouraging.

But I need motivation.

And I'm so-called a CEO's daughter.

I'm a bit short in funds to maintain my dignity.

- Are you asking for an allowance? - Yes!

Of course, my grandpa!

If you give me an advance, I'll be motivated and work hard.

So it won't affect you or Dad negatively.

Okay!

I hope that determination lasts a long time.

Great.

- Here. - My goodness.

Grandpa, spend a little bit more while you're at it.

A little bit more.

Here. Great!

Thank you!

Two would've been better, but...

I'll work hard!

That girl...

She didn't take after her dad's brain for sure.

Who does she take after?

How adorable.

- Where did you get the money? - From Grandpa.

He gives it to me often.

If you go one-on-one, he gives unexpectedly.

Try it out, Auntie.

Oh, it's Mom!

Oh, yeah. Nice timing.

Smiley, wake up.

Yes.

Father, could I request a meeting?

I have something to say to you.

Come in if it's not about money.

Get some rest, Father.

Aigoo, who does she take after...

Aigoo.

There. Did you have fun?

Let's go home.

Song Seo Young.

I said you'd be in trouble if you skip academy one more time.

I'll see you at home.

Yes, yes. Do as you please, Mother.

Oh, going home now?

- Dad! - My daughter!

Gosh. I've been waiting. Why are you coming home now?

I was busy.

Hi, Seo Jin!

What did you do, Dad?

Business meeting? Stuff like that?

Well, I guess you could say that.

Whoa, CEO Song. Pretty cool.

Pretty cool yourself.

Song Seo Young, get in.

I'm tired.

All right.

Dad, I'm off. Make lots of money. Fighting!

All right.

Seo Jin's kindergarten interview is next month.

There aren't many kindergartens with special ed.

It was tough to get the interview.

Parents need to accompany her.

Okay. Got it.

Tell me when you know exactly when.

Hyun Kyeong.

By chance,

did you leave a planter and business card holder in front of my office?

No.

Why would I go there?

Bye.

That's right. You wouldn't come.

Who could it be then?

It must be nice for you, Honey.

You don't age and have the same face.

You know what tomorrow is, right?

The first day we met 35 years ago.

The way you looked when you fell for me.

I can't forget it.

- I'm home, Mom. - You're home.

Let's eat dinner. I'm hungry.

I ate already.

You didn't eat yet?

Don't be like that. Just consider me gone

and eat when you're hungry and sleep when you're tired.

How can I consider you gone when you're here? Nonsense.

All right, all right. I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Come home early tomorrow.

It's a day I don't want to eat alone. Got it?

Got it. As you wish, Mother.

Gosh, so coldhearted.

He's worse than Kyu Jin.

I know it's harder for you to reveal.

Yeah, Mother's shock...

It will be huge.

But...

we have to face it at least once.

Think it over carefully.

Hi, Na Hee. What's up this morning?

Is something going on?

No, nothing.

You have to work at the store, huh?

Of course, I do.

What would a fried chicken store owner's wife do otherwise?

Mom, can you take a day off from Father

and go on a date with me?

Today?

Just the two of us?

Yeah. Just the two of us.

I just got so excited.

I'm so happy just thinking about it.

All right.

I'll take a day off with my life.

Yeah. Hey, I'll call you back.

- Honey! - What?

- Honey, Honey, Honey! - What?

Give me a day off today.

It's Na Hee's day off today.

She wants to spend the day with me.

Na Hee?

- Why is she acting unusual? - I don't know.

Who cares if she's being unusual?

My husband never takes me out.

It's nice if my daughter will take me out.

I'm taking today off, okay?

Wait, what should I wear?

My dress is at the cleaners. What else is there?

Aigoo, she's so happy.

Go out? Go for it. You'll just spend money.

These guys. What time is it now?

Hey, Gluttons!

Wake up!

Where is it?

I'm sure I parked it here.

I'm meeting my mom.

I'll use the car.

Gosh, after disinfecting the area,

it feels refreshing and clears my indigestion.

Yeah, I know.

I don't see Ok Boon today. Did she go somewhere?

She took a day off.

A date with her second daughter.

- Oh, that doctor daughter? - Yeah.

She's as cold as dry ice.

I guess she's good to her mom, though.

Gosh!

Gosh, the coffee tastes great. [ We don't accept coupons ]

The association members get to share coffee like this.

We work here for that kind of fun. Don't you think?

Gosh, yes, of course!

Gosh, the coffee tastes so sweet, especially today.

It tastes like honey.

What the? That serpent dragon looking woman.

How dare she give us the stink-eye?

What a sight. Really.

She should join the association then.

Gosh!

So dusty!

So dusty!

Why is it so dusty?

- Gosh! - Unni!

Seriously.

Those women are like gnats.

So childish.

Why? Did those ahjummas say something?

- Ga Yeon. - Huh?

Make me some coffee.

Put three coffee mixes. Make it strong.

With coffee mix?

You don't like that because it's sweet.

I'm craving sweets.

Make a cold one.

Okay.

What's this?

Why? What is it?

Oh, my.

Gosh, gosh! Come on!

Hey, why be so afraid of a cockroach?

Gosh!

Pretty girls act out worse.

Gosh, what's so scary about a bug?

Unni!

It's good.

You know the delivery man we talked about?

Yeah, did you find someone good?

Yeah, he works for my brother's galbi place.

I picked him out and intercepted him.

He rides a motorcycle real good.

He's delivered before.

That's good. When can he start?

Right away. I already spoke to my brother.

- I'm sorry, Young Dal. - Aigoo.

My coffee time was too long.

Aigoo.

You must've been gossiping about the kimbap place with the ladies.

How could women unite so well when they have a common enemy?

They usually chew each other out.

Who does that?

We were always close. We unite well, too.

All right, that's enough.

Go and talk to the ladies to accept them.

How could they run a business here without joining the association?

Why should we? They should give in if they're frustrated.

I don't think they'll give in even with a knife at their throats.

We'll do it! We'll do it!

- What? - We'll change.

We'll accept your warning.

A cockroach.

It was so scary.

So scary.
