(Episode 17)

You're here, Comrade!

What a greeting!

Let's go eat first.

Not now.

Why? Are you upset that I stood you up the other day?

Here. Take this.

What is this?

It's for saving my life.

Saving your life?

Sir.

I know this old man's life isn't worth a lot,

but I'm a person who keeps his words.

It's 10,000 dollars.

What's wrong?

What's the matter?

Sir, where did you get the money from?

Why would you ask?

I mean, it's not like we've known each other...

Sir, what is your name?

It's Boo Young Bae. Why?

Mr. Boo Young Bae. When were you born?

Goodness me.

- Let me see. I was born in 2900... - What? When?

- Did you say 2900? - No. Wait.

- I think it was 1100... - What? 1100?

What's your address?

Give me your number. Where do your kids live?

Give me your phone. I'll call them.

You brat. Are you interrogating me?

If you don't want it, leave it.

Where are you going? You should take this.

You take it. You got swindled.

What? Don't you want it?

No, it's not that!

Fine. Let's go somewhere with me.

Let's eat first.

Hey, I said I don't want to eat.

- Of course, you don't. - Hey!

Gosh. Where are we?

Sir, let's go in first. Let's talk inside.

Why would I go to the police station?

Sir, you're not in your right mind.

I think you've got dementia.

If you walk around with money like this,

- you'd get in trouble with thugs. - Are you crazy?

What do you mean I got dementia?

I didn't know you're this slow.

If your kids find out you're like this,

- they'd get upset. - Hey, forget it.

If you don't want it, leave it.

Great. I can save money then.

Where are you going? I'll take you home.

Let go!

Come on, sir.

Dad's getting married.

Out of the blue?

It can't be.

A young woman who came here with him.

This is bothering me.

I can give a consultation on Friday at noon.

(Majang-dong Jerk)

That Majang-dong Jerk.

I don't want to get involved.

(Young Ji)

You have to have three meals with me instead of the consultation fee.

By the way, something weird happened to me yesterday.

Why? Did a guy ask for your number?

No. I met that old man I talked about last time.

Oh, him.

I mean, he gave 10,000 dollars.

And it was that yellow 50-dollar notes.

Ten thousand dollars? Oh, my gosh. So what happened?

You took it, right? Where is it?

What do you mean? I'm nobody. I shouldn't take that money.

I'll get in trouble if I take it.

I guess you're right. But what's wrong with that old man?

I think he's not in his right mind.

When I asked him about his birthday, he said 2000 something.

He didn't know his number or his address.

His sleeves were all worn out and shabby.

I think it was his life's saving.

Gosh. I feel sorry for him.

Don't take it even if he tries to give it to you again.

What if his kids report you to the authorities?

Of course, I won't take it.

I better hurry and get ready for deliveries.

Leave it. I'll do it.

Will you?

Then you should cut off the fat and send it to wholesalers.

I know. You should go.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Like what Sul Ak said if Dad finds out,

we'd be scolded and ruin everything.

Gosh. I said I'll just feel him out a little.

Unless we have conclusive evidence, you shouldn't let him know.

You got that, right?

I'm Shin Ae Ri.

If you're talking about taking a hint and using my wit,

I'm way better than those women from Ewha Womans' University.

So stop worrying.

Should I give you a lift?

Forget it. Just make sure to talk about this with Baek Doo.

Are you done? Let's go.

Why would you go, Mother?

She has to meet Auntie.

I'll see your father while I'm at it too.

If what you said is true, then it's a huge deal.

What if that old woman's kids find out...

that his the owner of Buruna Noodles?

They'll probably want a piece of the action.

Just the thought of it makes me cringe.

We're not idiots. We won't just stand still.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Right. We should watch our mouths at times like this.

Come on, we're late. We can't go empty-handed.

There's a good sushi shop at Cheongdam-dong.

I'll get going. You should go to work.

- Okay. - Bye.

- I'll be back. - Okay. See you later.

- Call me. - All right.

Baek Doo, you didn't forget about today, right?

Don't be late.

You served him fish too, right?

I never leave out fish for him.

Don't give him the same side dishes twice?

You have to take care of that more than the restaurant.

The owner needs the energy to operate the restaurant...

and give you guys paychecks.

Of course.

By the way, I like your scarf.

I look good in pink, you know.

Who do you want to show it off too?

It's not you, so you should thank your ancestors.

Hyang Sook, I heard you've been to the hospital.

What was that for?

I had food poisoning.

Right. Were you all right after eating your food?

What?

Your face is blotchy too.

Oh, my gosh. I'm in trouble.

Why?

What on earth are you talking about?

What's wrong with the cream?

My face got red after applying it.

They said nothing's free.

I was wondering why you got me a cream.

That's ridiculous.

I used several of them, and nothing happened to me.

Oh, my gosh. This is driving me crazy.

I took it out on the wrong person.

Oh, no. I can't give this back.

Goodness, it's itchy.

Father, it's me, Ae Ri.

Hello, Mr. Boo.

Goodness. You're here.

Yes.

After what happened last time, I didn't get a chance to meet you.

- Are you doing well? - Yes.

My mother...

has been praying so much for you, Father.

I'm sorry for making you worry.

And is your husband doing well too?

Of course, Ae Ri's father is always so healthy.

Mom, you said you were going to see Auntie?

- All right. - Go and say hi.

I'll be seeing you again.

All right. See you.

- Father, let's go inside. - All right.

Let's go inside.

You didn't have lunch yet, did you?

I got this from a great sushi place at Cheongdam-dong.

Leave it there. I don't want to eat it now.

Please try it when you're hungry.

Why? Is there something you want to tell me?

Well, I don't.

It's just that you look very healthy...

and at ease,

so I was wondering if there was good news?

I have good news, all right.

I got to see and hear all about your bare thoughts.

Oh, my dad will be visiting Seoul next month,

and he said he'll pay a visit to you then.

Is he coming to Seoul on business?

Well, a friend of my dad...

is getting married.

His kids are so old now...

that he has to see his grandchildren get married.

I see. That's why he's coming.

Yes, he is.

Also, an acquaintance of my mom...

got married to an old man who is almost 80...

even though her children discouraged her.

But that old man got Parkinson's disease.

So she's busy caring for her sick husband.

Gosh, she'd be spending her later years at ease...

if she listened to her children's advice.

Do you think the kids discouraged her for her sake?

They must've been scared that he might take their estate.

That can't be true.

Otherwise, there's no need for her children to make a fuss about...

whether their parent is getting married or gambling, is there?

You're totally right, Father.

How are your kids doing?

Oh, yes. They are so adorable. Take a look at this.

This was taken at a ski resort in winter.

She looks just like Elsa, doesn't she? How adorable.

They've been practicing hard to perform on your 80th birthday.

Take a look at this.

What do you mean by my 80th birthday?

Didn't Min Joo tell you?

Wait a minute. Here's the invitation.

Though it's past your birthday,

we should throw a big party at times like this.

Have a look at it.

At a hotel?

Are you in your right mind or what?

Well, Father. I didn't come up with the idea.

Well, whoever it is.

Do you think it's time to throw a party?

What is wrong with you?

Don't dare to mention a party.

Father. You're here, Ae Ri.

Father, Ae Ri was saying it for your sake,

so please don't be too angry.

We'd feel sorry if we didn't do our duties as children.

Please be understanding.

I feel the same way.

How do you feel about inviting displaced people...

to the restaurant and having a simple meal with them?

We could invite the North Korean refugees you are supporting too.

I'll see to that.

Yes, Father.

- It's hot! - Oh, my!

- Are you okay? - Gosh.

Goodness.

You're not wearing the scarf.

Well, I wouldn't want to wear it on such a hot day.

It's good to wear on hot days too since it's made of silk.

Please wear them often.

Okay.

Does it still feel itchy?

Goodness gracious. There are red spots.

It won't go away overnight.

Goodness. I'm so sorry I don't know what to tell you.

Oh, Auntie. Please take this.

What's that?

It's how I feel for you.

It's really expensive and precious. Please try it, Auntie.

That won't make me less angry, would it?

Is it made in the US?

Of course, I bought it at its price at the duty-free shop.

Also, if you haven't had lunch yet,

try this sushi too.

Ae Ri says...

it's made by a well-known chef.

Well, if you're this willing to make up for it,

I'll let things off my chest.

That's also my duty as a Buddhist following Buddha.

Oh, you are very generous.

Maybe I should go to the temple again after you.

Auntie, please try it.

- Try some. - No. I'll have it later.

- Please try it now. - No, not now.

Please, Auntie.

Try some.

- I brought some fruit for you. - Yes, thank you.

Come on and try it.

Auntie, you shouldn't be eating sushi.

What's wrong with sushi?

Last time, we ate raw fish and got food poison.

We ate raw fish and I started singing.

That's what she's saying.

Whenever I eat raw fish, I start singing.

What's wrong with my age?

It's the perfect time to love

You have such a good voice.

You should go now.

Soon the customers would be swarming in.

Oh, yes.

Auntie.

So you're not going to hold a grudge now, right?

I'll take it like that, okay?

There's nothing to hold a grudge about.

I'm not a big celebrity.

This old lady was just being silly.

What are you talking about?

I would've been furious too.

Please try this.

Let's go to eat raw fish with my husband in Incheon.

I didn't know you liked raw fish so much.

I'll do that.

We can go to karaoke too.

Sul Ak.

- You're here. - Yes.

Let's go.

I wondered why you were buying me lunch.

No place is as good as here in nutritional balance and hygiene.

Don't underestimate the quality of the cafeteria at a food company.

You're so charming like that.

Am I? I should be careful

Gosh, I should be careful from now on.

You're playing hard to get.

Are you still single?

You used to be so popular back then.

I'm available for your information.

Do you know that blinking is due to a lack of nutrition?

So eat your vegetables.

Ga On is in ninth grade now, is she?

She must be preparing for high school.

She takes care of it herself.

She doesn't like it when I interfere.

She takes after you.

Why hasn't the person asking for a consultation called yet?

What? Oh, well.

I didn't give her a call as I was busy.

Tell her to call me anytime. I can make time.

I'll do that.

Can I come here often?

It has a good balance of nutrition and good hygiene.

Do you want meal coupons?

Forget it.

Did you think I'll say that?

Give me five coupons.

All right. You win. Eat your lunch.

Are you going somewhere?

Are you going somewhere nice?

I don't know. I'm going to have it my way from now on.

So Young is still so pretty with makeup on and nice clothes.

You look like you're single.

She is pretty.

You're here now? Have dinner with your Grandmother.

Where are you going?

To meet my friend.

Are you not going to work?

Don't always be like that to Aunt and make an effort.

Jang Won.

Don't be like that to your mother.

Why am I not working? I'm on my way to do business.

I'm trying to do something as your Aunt got scammed.

Do something that's normal, not illegal.

Did you say something to Jang Won?

Don't take it out on Aunt and do well for yourself.

Jang Won! Whose son are you?

Goodness. Apologize quickly.

- Jang Won, where are you going? - You have to eat!

You're so annoying!

No matter how much we shop and eat, it doesn't solve anything?

Of course. You only did the department store good.

Goodness. He said to me that he hasn't thought about it.

But she's inviting a North Korean refugee student?

It's not like Auntie's going to forget about it.

"That's also my duty as a Buddhist following Buddha."

If I wasn't a Christian,

I wouldn't have gone there in the first place.

Mom.

Shall we refund this and buy something else?

Forget it. You can't take it back.

You're going to just refund mine.

You have lots of clothes anyway.

Why didn't you answer my calls?

I was in the sauna. Why?

What about Dad?

What should we do?

It doesn't look good.

I tried...

telling him stories about unsuccessful marriages of elders,

but he went furious.

He said the children are arguing because of the money.

And he told me to mind my own business.

It sounded like he would immediately get married.

I think you should talk to him now.

I'm speechless.

For now, I'll talk with Baek Doo.

I'm getting a headache.

Hey.

You should eat and then sleep.

That's the best way. Eat up.

- Eat up. - So annoying.

- Why is this so delicious? - That's right.

- It's so delicious. - Eat more.

Eat up.

What?

He said that.

Why are the children meddling with the parents' marriage?

Is it some kind of sign or a warning?

It could be. He didn't deny it.

But you said it was an old woman.

Yes, an old woman.

Not even a middle-aged woman.

Then, who is that young lady?

I don't know.

It might be the old woman's daughter...

or daughter-in-law.

What?

That means...

he has been in contact with her children.

This is terrible.

Why are you saying that? It scares me.

He wouldn't do that behind our backs.

No.

This is very serious.

Should we call Sul Ak and Han Ra?

Call them.

I should call my wife as well.

It's not right for Min Joo to join now.

For now, let's just talk with the Boo family members.

Hey, it's me.

Why?

A drink?

Why all of a sudden?

Go home if you're drunk.

It's an important matter, so come out.

Say it when you're sober.

Give me the phone.

Hey, Sul Ak.

It's me, Baek Doo.

What? Are you guys together?

You're the smart one from our family.

Stop drinking and go home.

I came to Jeju Island because I was craving seaweed soup.

Not just a plain seaweed soup.

The sea urchin seaweed soup sold at Seongsan Ilchulbong.

Hang up, you brat.

Han Ra went to Jeju Island to eat seaweed soup.

Why is he so obsessed with sea urchin seaweed soup?

He's my brother, but when is he going to grow up?

Leave them.

They won't know anything because they are still single.

Exactly.

You and I are the only ones worried about our family.

Here. Let's have a drink.

I'm sorry.

As the eldest, I should have managed our younger brothers.

But I'm glad I have you, Geum Gang.

Me too. I feel reassured because of you.

Let us protect the Boo family.

Are you molting?

- Dad! - Look at all this dust.

Dad!

- We're here. Open the door. - Dad!

Dad!

It's us, Dad!

- Goodness! - Door's open.

Dad.

We're here.

Dad, you can't do this to us.

What's the cause of this racket at this time of the night?

Don't try to hide it from us.

You can't do this.

I'm really speechless.

Where did you meet her?

How could you meet her without us knowing?

Stop it. Snap out of it.

Who is this woman?

Come on.

Go ahead and tell us.

What are you talking about?

We saw it with our own eyes...

and heard it with our own ears.

Stop it right now! Get a grip.

You be quiet!

It's an emergency in our family!

Are you both crazy?

What is all this?

Dad.

I saw it all.

I saw you leave the bank with a bag full of money.

It's for that woman, right?

Is she already asking for money?

Have you been following me?

I mean...

Dad, that isn't important.

Dad.

Why do you care if I meet that woman?

Of course, we care.

That person might become our stepmom.

What?

Hey!

Watch your mouth.

Dad.

You're not really getting married, are you?

Stop it.

Dad, keep calm.

What's the point of getting married now?

You can't do that to our Mom.

You ungrateful jerks.

Fine.

I am getting married.

I'm going to leave all my money to my wife, you brats!

(Brilliant Heritage)

Grim Reaper, what are you doing?

- Please take me. - Mom!

Take me away quickly.

- Sir, today's Gogi World event... - I will...

Round of applause!

The meat looks more delicious when you cook it.

That's why we need a specialist.

- Here. Open wide. - Thank you.
