All language subtitles for Beautiful Gong Shim 08

There must be something wrong
with the seed in here, right?

No matter how hard I try,
isn't it destined to stay in the soil

and never bloom?

Shim, why do you say that?

It's just like me.

No matter how hard I try, there's no use!

It's just like me.

No matter how much I try,

there's no use.

If you sprout...

things will all go well with Shim, too.

Come on. You can do it.

-Hello.
-Hi, Dan-tae.

Where are you going?

Can't you see?

I'll dump this, then I'll get some water.

I see. Why don't you ask
your daughter to do it?

Are you talking about Shim?

How can I? She's at work.

Did she go to work?

Of course. It's time for her
to be at work.

What kind of question is that?

-See you then.
-All right. See you later.

Where did she go so early in the morning?

This phone is switched off.
Please leave a message.

Her cell phone is turned off.

I hope she doesn't miss her meals.

I was daunted and discouraged over there.

I made you smile, right?
If you smiled, call me.

Where in the world is she?

What's going on?

I haven't been able to reach her all day.

She's worrying me.

Where is Shim anyway?

Shim.

You didn't recognize me, right?

I passed by you on purpose,
but you didn't notice.

I only looked for a girl with bobbed hair.

I didn't expect you to have long hair.

I tried this on
in the subway station bathroom.

It cheered me up.

I like it.

It's not as bad as I thought.

Really?

Guys really do prefer long hair,
don't they?

I've had enough cheering up.

I'm going to go and change my wig
in that bathroom over there.

What a relief.

She's doing better than I expected.

Why aren't you asking me

about why I cried yesterday?

Do you want to talk about it?

You can if you want.

That's not what I meant.

Don't most people get curious?

I cried my eyes out in front of you.

I'm sure it wasn't because
of something exciting.

Why would I ask you
about something hurtful?

You can just talk about it
when you want to.

You just sounded like an adult.

Are you kidding me?
Do you know how old I am?

Do you want to see my identification card?

I...

Just now, you acted really childish.

Do you know how mature I am?

I have such deep thoughts
that my nickname is Mr. Think.

Sorry. I can't always be funny, you know.

You know I quit, right?

I assume you texted me and called me...

because you knew.

Just don't ask.

I...

won't be talking about it.

I won't ask.

Don't tell me.

You must have been out all day.

Let's go home.

I didn't reply to your text

because your photo wasn't funny.

It wasn't? What a lie.
I'm sure it was funny.

It wasn't.

I know you laughed.
I can see you holding down a smile.

I tend to have a smiling face.

It was funny, right?

You laughed, right?

Tell me it was funny.

What? You quit?

Why?

What is it? Did something happen?

I'm sorry.

It wasn't the job for me, so I quit.

Did you really quit? Can't you go back?

No. It's over.

You should have tried
to stay there longer.

Don't you know how hard it is
to get a job these days?

I'm sorry.

Shim quit her job at Star Group?

Her working there was bothering me anyway.

It's a good thing.

I just heard you talking to Mom and Dad.

Why did you quit?

I thought you heard.

I don't think I'm cut out for it.

It's okay. You made the right decision.

You'll find something
that's right for you.

I'll help you look for a job.

Did you hurt your arm?

A little.

It's nothing.

What happened?

I was working out.

You should be careful.

I feel bad making our parents worry.

You should get a job at a law firm.

You can get hired anywhere
if you aren't so picky.

I will.

Don't worry too much and get some rest.

That's rare. She's never worried about me.

Shim.

I'm in front of your place.

If you're home, could you come out?

If you're not,
please see me before you go in.

I'll wait for you.

I'm sorry.

My mother was completely
disrespectful towards you.

I'll apologize on her behalf.

Also, I want to apologize as well.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

I understand if you're angry
at me and my mother.

I understand her.

No one would understand why

she would make you leave work
just for being close to me.

The position wasn't

something I deserved anyway.

I'm going to look for a job
that's more suitable for me.

Don't worry.

I'm so embarrassed.

I don't know what to say.

Really, I'm fine.

Don't worry.

I know you're just saying that.

How can someone get over
something like that so fast?

Mr. Seok. You know me.

I'm good at getting over things.

I'm really fine.

I'm more concerned about you.

Smile a little.

Thank you

for saying that.

When I get a new job, I'll buy you dinner

with my first paycheck.

Wait until then.

All right,

buy me something nice
when you get your first paycheck.

I will.

I was in the middle of something.

I better go.

All right.

Bye.

Bye.

Jin-su?

I haven't talked to him after graduating.

Hey, Shim.

It's been a while. How are you?

I wanted to see
if you were working these days.

There's a pretty good job offer.

I called you earlier,
but your phone was off.

Give me a call.

I almost ran into you.

Where are you going?

A friend of mine told me about a job.
I'm on my way to an interview.

Really?

That's great.

Where is it?

It's nearby. There's an office
just a few blocks from here.

I mean, what does the company do?

It's a distribution company.
I'm busy. We'll talk later.

Good luck!

But why would they interview her at night?

On top of that,
they called her out so suddenly.

What was with that bag, anyway?

Distribution?

Could it be a pyramid scheme?

If you're new,
you might get worried and wonder

if this is a pyramid scheme.

But look.

There are no pyramids here.

We're a star.

We call it network marketing.

-Network marketing.
-If you succeed

in completing the three-day training,

you will start making

ten million won a month.

NETWORK MARKETING

Ten million a month?

You can earn over ten million won a month.

Ten million won a month?

That's impossible.

OBANG HUMAN LIFE

Get him!

You're forbidden to move
once the class starts.

I'll be collecting your phones

so you can focus on the class.

Take out your phones.

Don't look at your phone!

Put it down.

All right.

Let's focus on the lecture.

Why do we have to be
interconnected with each other?

Underneath you, there will be
ten people branching off.

Underneath them will be
ten more branching off from each.

It'll continue to exponentially grow.

The branches will expand more and more.

This phone is switched off.
Please leave...

Her phone's off again.

Did you just run away?

Yes.

Act natural. Be natural.

Did you run away
from a pyramid scheme office?

Yes. It's definitely a fraud.

I almost got in trouble
because of a friend. Thank you.

No problem. Take care.

Those jerks.

First things first.

If you want to participate
in the business,

you must invest.

Did you all bring your bank account books?

I don't have any money
in my account. Can I go?

You can get a loan.

Don't worry.

A loan? Gosh.

Who are you?

I just received a report
on your illegal activity.

If any of you were scammed,
get out of here.

Shim, come here.

Who are you?

-Who do you think?
-Who is he?

Stay right there.

-Shim!
-Let go of me.

Shim. Goodness.

Shim, even if they were
offering you a job,

you shouldn't have just gone there
without thinking.

Couldn't you tell it was a fraud?

No.

I go blind when people offer me jobs.

Okay?

I'm not trying to tell you off
or anything.

I'm not mad at you.

I'm just embarrassed at myself.

Thank you for saving me.

I'm sorry.

I've been scammed before, too.

The call from the Philippines
was on April 18.

Then the call from Korea
was on April 26, right?

Yes.

I'm certain it was the same man.

He had the same voice. I'm sure of it.

Then the suspect
must be a man who traveled

from the Philippines to Korea
between the 18th and the 26th.

The call on April 26 was made
at a payphone near your house.

There was only one security camera
across the street.

Not only was it far away,
but the video quality was bad as well.

I've hired professionals
to work on the video.

I don't care about catching him.

I just want to see Jun-pyo.
That's my only wish.

I understand, ma'am.

Hello.

-Hello.
-Oh, Mr. An.

Let me introduce you to Jun-su's mother.

Hello, I'm An Dan-tae.

-Are you Jun-su's friend?
-Yes.

I hear you've been helping
the chairwoman a lot.

No, she's helping me, actually.

I see. See you soon.

Goodbye.

He's the one looking for Jun-pyo, right?

We predicted Jun-pyo's growth
since he went missing and made a montage

of how he'd look like at his present age.

Does that mean

this is how Jun-pyo looks like now?

It won't be a perfect match--

Tae-cheol, what if they end up
finding Jun-pyo?

How are they going to find a kid
we threw away 26 years ago?

Jun-pyo witnessed his mom getting hit.

Since then, he lost his speech
and his memories.

You know it too.

And plus, if his memories returned,
he would have come back himself.

Don't you think so?

Either he completely lost his memories...

or he's dead.

We can't let them find him,
and he can't be alive.

If you don't want things
to go back to how they were,

you know what you have to do.

Welcome.

Is the lawyer away?

Yes. He's out. Can I help you?

I came to ask for advice on
real estate fraud.

I see. If you want to press charges,
take a seat...

and please fill this form out.

-Sure.
-Please sit.

Hold on.

Yes, hello.

Yes. The sentencing takes
a couple of days.

Yes, I'll send it to you when we get it.

Or you can come and pick it up.

Yes.

Sergeant An?

-Sergeant Yeom.
-Sergeant An.

-Can you look after him for just one day?
-What...

Who is he?

What's wrong?

Did something happen?

Please do me a favor
and keep him for a day.

You can let him play with your son.

Well, the thing is...

I haven't seen your son
since his first birthday.

Here.

-Buy him some toys.
-I...

I'll see you tomorrow. Thank you so much.

Sergeant Yeom!

THE NEXT DAY

I got it. I'll take care of the kid.

I'll kill him or abandon him in a crowd.

I'll make sure no one finds him.

Tae-hui, I told you.
I'll take care of him.

I'm hanging up. Bye.

Where is the child?

Where is he?

I'm so sorry.

I lost the child.

What?

What are you saying?

You lost him? Where did you lose him?

I was distracted for a while,
and he suddenly disappeared.

How can you lose him?

Go find him!

Go and find that child!

An Dan-tae is Sergeant An's son?

Okay, bye.

Are you all right?

Oh, my.

I'm sorry.

I'll come back another time.

Sorry.

So you'll buy two sets for now, right?

Yes.

Why didn't you tell me
that you were doing this?

I felt sorry.

I didn't want to pressure you.

There's no pressure between us.

Right.

I hear your husband plans
on treating us today.

Yes, but he can't come

because he needs to hire a new secretary.

I'll just have to pay for it.

Why did the secretary quit?

She didn't quit. I fired her.

Why would you do that?

You scared me.

Did I?

I'm sorry.

Anyway,

why would you fire his secretary?

We somehow hired a random person.

She was trying to seduce my son.

I was speechless. I fired her right away.

She needs to know her place.

Don't even bring it up.

It's still making me stressed.

Right.

I should donate the makeup
to the charity bazaar I'm organizing.

Why didn't I think of that?

Jae-bun, can I order 50 more?

What? You want 50 more?

Of course.

Great. I'll order 50 for now.

Tae-hui, thank you so much.

Thank you.

It's nothing.

I'll see you at the gathering, then.

Make sure you dress up.

It's okay.

Just leave it there.

Hello, I saw the ad for a job opening.

Yes.

You can leave that here.

RESUME

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Do they pay you on time?

I've been scammed so many times.

I just got my paycheck yesterday.

All right.

Bye.

Shim must have been so upset.

She was wrongfully dismissed,

but she was more worried about us.

She lied to us by saying that she quit.

My goodness.

I'm sorry.

It's because I'm incompetent.

I'm making you and the kids suffer.

Just so that I could sell more makeup,

I let her talk badly about Shim.

I couldn't say anything.

I just smiled and thanked her.

-Hey.
-Oh, gosh.

-I...
-Goodness.

-Tae-hui!
-Tae-hui's here.

-Oh, my.
-Look at you.

-Hey.
-Hello.

-You're all early.
-Hey.

Is that a new bag?

How did you know? My goodness.

Jae-bun.

Why are you dressed like that?
You should get changed.

You look like a lady
working at the market.

I know.

Yeom Tae-hui.

What's wrong?

Why are you looking at me like that?

How will you keep up your
door-to-door sales with those eyes?

How ridiculous.

Are you crazy?

This is for looking down
on my daughter and firing her wrongfully.

What are you talking about?

I'm...

Gong Shim's mother!

What?

You're her mother?

That's right.

She's my daughter.

You little...

Call the police. Call them.

Go ahead and call the police!

I'll tell the media
how you wrongfully dismissed her.

Maybe this isn't for the police.

-Hey.
-My goodness!

-My gosh.
-Hey.

Return all the makeup you bought.

I'm never selling any to you.

You...

I only did what I should have done.

I didn't expect anything in return.

You're so modest.

Did...

Did something happen to your shoulders?

You were fine this morning.

I think I pulled a muscle.

Go get a massage or something.

You're distracting me.

I heard you used to work
at Cheonpungan Law Firm.

What do you think
about joining our legal team?

-Pardon me?
-Since you were at a law firm,

that proves you're competent.

We'd love it if you came.

What do you think?

You can become Star Group's family.

Well, I...

All right.

You'll accept, right?

Yes.

OUR RESTAURANT SELLS
ONLY FRESH BEEF AND TRIPE

Enjoy.

Excuse me.

-Yes?
-Get me a soda.

Sure.

Shim, this is for table two.

Okay.

-Here you go.
-Thank you.

Enjoy.

-Here is your drink.
-Thanks.

Mr. Seok.

What are you doing here?

Dan-tae told me.

I guess this place really is popular.

How...

Excuse me.

Yes, coming.

I think you'll have to wait.

It's okay, I'll just get takeout.

Let the cashier know then.

Hello?

Coming.

Go on.

I need more vegetables and a drink, too.

Sure. Ma'am, one more plate of vegetables.

Okay.

Here you go.

-I'm home.
-Hi.

-Here's some beef ribs.
-Why did you get meat for takeout?

I've hired...

Ms. Gong to join our legal team.

-What?
-How can you treat her

like that when she saved you?

You didn't even show up
to dinner last time.

How can you be so rude?

I'll make it up to her.

Do it before you see her at work.

Invite her to the
restaurant opening as well.

Call her now.

And we'll call a truce.

All right, I'll call her.

SEOK JUN-SU

Hello?

Ms. Gong, it's Jun-su.

Yes, go ahead.

Are you free tomorrow?

I'd like to invite you
to the opening of our restaurant.

Me?

Yes.

I would appreciate it if you could come.

Sure. I'll be there.

Are you crazy?

What have you done?

We bumped into each other.
Both of us needed to be careful.

This was intentional, wasn't it?

What? That's going a bit too far.

Hey.

Gong Shim's sister.

Please. From now on,
let's not bump into each other.

It's really annoying!

How do you like this place, Mother?

Restaurants are all the same.

What are you talking about?

To me, this restaurant looks
so elegant, fantastic,

and neat, just like Jun-su.

Jun-su takes after me.

That's right.

Isn't that right, Jun-su?

What do you mean?

It's nothing.

By the way,

isn't Ms. Gong coming?

She told me that she'll be here.

I see.

Thank you for coming, Grandmother.

I came here because of business.

Okay.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE OPENING

-Please call me any time.
-Okay.

Jun-su.

Thank you for coming.

This restaurant is really gorgeous.

Thank you for inviting me
to such a beautiful place.

I hope your restaurant prospers.

Thank you.

The rooftop guy?

My goodness.
How are they close to each other?

How do they know each other?

Hello, ma'am. I'm here.

How are you here?

Jun-su invited me for the opening
of this restaurant.

-I see.
-It's good to see you.

It's good to see you, too.

Are you doing well?

Jun-su.

Did you invite that man named An Dan-tae?

Yes. What's the matter?

I see. It's nothing.

Anyway, didn't you invite Ms. Gong?

Why isn't she here yet?

I invited her.

You invited her, but she didn't come?

What's her problem?

Excuse me, Mr. Seok.

All right.

This restaurant has changed a lot.

But the people here
are still the same, aren't I right?

Of course.
The taste is still the same, too.

It really is.

Oh, I almost forgot.
I have something for you.

Take this. Your father left it
behind last time.

I found it after he left,
but I didn't know how to contact him,

so I kept it with me all this time.

What?

It's his passport.

Your father's passport?

Yes.

Ji-yeon. I'm going back
to the Philippines. Don't worry about me.

He must've gotten his passport reissued

before leaving
without knowing he left it here.

Yes. I guess so.

-Bye.
-All right, good job.

Bye.

OUR RESTAURANT SELLS
ONLY FRESH BEEF AND TRIPE

We'll take an order, please.

-Okay.
-Well done.

You must've enjoyed
the ribs from this place.

Yes.

I kept thinking about it.

To be honest, I never really
tried it properly before.

I only smelled it until now.

I guess it's the agony
of part-time workers.

Eat as much as you want today,
so you won't think of it for a while.

No, it's on me today.

Because I work here,
she'll give us good quality meat.

Can I order three portions
of meat, please?

It's more delicious now
that I'm eating it as a customer.

I think it's delicious, too.

Next time, you should come
with your colleagues.

It'll help with the sales.

I should do that.

It's not so great to work here
in the summer.

A café is a great place to work
as a part-timer.

It's cool in the summer
and warm in the winter.

Being in charge of the fire here
is the worst.

It gets really hot.

I bet you never worked part-time before.

I did when I was studying overseas.

What kind of work did you do?

Shim.

Is it okay for me
to have feelings for you?

Pardon?

I like you, Gong Shim.

Is that okay?

It's cute, really.

Shim.

What's wrong?

I can see you're worrying about something.

I was just thinking about stuff.

What's the matter?

Feel free to tell me about it.

It's okay.

All right. I'll go in, then.

Don't stay out for too long.
You'll get mosquito bites.

Okay.

It's flooding again.

Shim.

Shim, it's flooding again.

Please fix the leaking pipe.

-Again?
-Yes.

We must hurry.

You must feel uncomfortable.

Dan-tae, wouldn't it be better
to go to a sauna instead?

No, that's fine. I really hate saunas.

I find this place very comfortable.

Really? That's strange.

It's usually uncomfortable
in other people's houses.

I don't know why I find this house
so comfortable.

It must be uncomfortable,
but you'll have to sleep here tonight.

Yes, I will.

Shim, call a plumber
and fix it properly this time.

This is the second time
that this happened, so I feel sorry.

Yes, I will.

You don't need to. I don't mind
my room getting flooded again.

I feel sleepy.

Good night, Dan-tae.

Good night, Dan-tae.

Okay. Good night.

Shim.

Good night.

Does your eye hurt?

Why did you pretend
as if you were sleeping?

You scared me to death. You are so weird.

I wasn't pretending. I was trying
to sleep by closing my eyes.

Should I keep them open?

I was trying to tuck you in
since your blanket was all over the place.

Really?

Then here.

I'm going to sleep now.

So tuck me in.

If you don't, it's going to be cold
in the morning.

Mr. Gong!

You scared me. What was that for?

Why did you slap me?

You scared me to death!

Who wouldn't be scared?

Gosh, you're so weird.

Goodness.

Goodness, why didn't I see that?

Can't I see if I yell like that?

AUTO WASH

Did that rooftop guy go back up?

I'm not sure.
I told him to have breakfast.

He went up so suddenly.

The washing machine must not work, either.

Mi, go on and help him with his laundry.

Me?

Come this way.

Okay.

It's fine if you already started
the machine.

It's okay to put more in.

Give them to me.

Hey.

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I was a bit tense.

I apologize.

No, it's fine. It was me
who was being careless.

Well...

We're neighbors,
so I hope we'll get along from now on.

Sure, that sounds great.

Excuse me, then.

Dan-tae, breakfast is ready.

Okay, I'm coming.

Shim, breakfast is ready.

My goodness.
He's acting like he lives here.

Shim, breakfast is ready. Hurry up.

I'm coming.

I washed my hands very thoroughly.

So don't worry and enjoy this dish.

Hey, Shim.

Come and have a seat.

The soup tastes great. The greens
and side dishes taste amazing too.

Ma'am, you are such a great cook.

I can't believe how delicious
everything is.

My goodness. You're flattering me.

Thank you, anyway.

I heard you always eat outside.

It's all homemade, so help yourself.

Thank you so much, but let's share this.

Let's eat together more often from now on.

All we need to do is another
spoon on the table.

I really appreciate it, Mr. Gong.

Here.

Please wipe your hands with it.

Thank you, Gong Mi.

What's this?

A fish eye.

I saved one

just for you.

I'll finish boning the fish.

Shim, you're here just in time.

It started to sprout.

Did it?

Aren't you happy?

You were waiting for it to sprout.

I'm happy.

What's wrong?

You don't seem so happy.

The sprout will be disappointed at you.

Hey, I've been meaning to tell you.

What is it?

I knew something was bothering you
since last night.

Tell me about it.

I'm going to

go to Jeju Island.

Pardon?

Jeju Island?

I got a job

at a horticulture company.

The condition is that I have to work
at Jeju Island.

I'll probably be there
for about two years.

If I work there for two years,

they'll relocate me
to their headquarter in Seoul.

I thought it'd be nice
since I can put my major to work.

It's a horticultural farm in Jeju Island.

So the air will be nice.

I think it'll be a good opportunity.

I like you, Gong Shim.

Mr. Seok.

I really mean it.

I didn't plan this,

but now that I've said it,

I've become more certain
about my feelings.

Why would a person like you
have feelings for me?

There are so many reasons...

why I like you.

No, actually,

there's only one reason.

I just really like you.

Mr. Seok. I...

Right now, I need...

some time of my own
to learn how to love myself.

Right now, I'm a person with many faults.

So even if someone likes me,

I'll think that...

it's only because
he feels sorry or guilty.

No.

I'm not like that.

I was really happy

when you first told me

that we were friends.

And that feeling

never changed since then.

Until I gain

confidence in myself

to think that I deserve

to be loved by someone...

I'd be grateful if you support me
like you always have.

I'm really sorry.

But I'll get going first.

I'll give it to you
for being rebellious today.

Shim.

Your workplace and school
should always be near where you live.

You've been to school,
so you should know by now.

Jeju Island is too far.

You won't be able to take
the subway there.

I know it wasn't funny.
But I can't always be funny, can I?

My flight is the day after tomorrow.

I already paid for the flight

and I'm staying in a dorm.

I told you everything now.

Shim.

You can't do this.

How could you do this?

You're just going to leave
to Jeju Island in three days?

I'm so ashamed of myself,
and I feel so pathetic.

You saw for yourself.

I was a fool who almost got swindled
by employment fraud.

I know it's embarrassing,

and I'm ashamed of myself.

I want to accomplish something on my own.

I'm going to go to Jeju Island...

and do my best.

Hey, Shim.

Just give it another thought.

Let's not talk here.
Let's go get some fried chicken.

We can talk slowly over some beer.

I'm not hungry.

I'll get going.

Where are you going?

I still have to tell my family
that I'm leaving for Jeju Island.

Goodness. What am I supposed to do?

What should I do? Gosh.

Gosh, what do I do?

What's the matter? It's late.

Can't we talk tomorrow?

I feel like I have to tell you this now.

I understand that you have to

go to Jeju Island.

But I'm going to be selfish
from this moment on

and talk only for myself.

Don't go to Jeju Island.

What?

Since we live in the same building...

I could see you whenever I opened my door.

I could see you going to work
every time I had breakfast.

When my house got flooded,

I felt like I got lucky.

Because I could go over
to your house and see you.

I...

I liked that so much.

But...

if you go to Jeju Island...

That means...

I can't see you from now on.

So please don't go to Jeju Island.

Dan-tae.

If you leave...

I don't know how I'll cope.

Don't think too hard.

And tomorrow...

tell me that you won't leave.

Okay?

Thank you.

Dad?

Then the suspect
must be a man who traveled

from the Philippines to Korea
between the 18th and the 26th.

He entered...

Korea on April 23.

Dad?

Taxi.

NEW MESSAGE

Soo-yong, we decided to pull out
the tree in Yangpyeong tomorrow.

Take care of everything before that.

Okay, Ji-yeon. I'll take care of it.

Dan-tae, how is everything?

I've been away for too long, haven't I?

No, it's fine.

Has anyone contacted you?

No, no one did.

Dan-tae.

The tree in Yangpyeong

is arranged to be moved
to a nearby arboretum

at 3:00 p.m. tomorrow.

That's good.
So it'll be done tomorrow afternoon?

Yes. You don't have to worry about it.

They'll take care of everything.

Okay, I got it.

Dad was the one who took away Jun-pyo.

Then where is Jun-pyo right now?

Dad is afraid of the tree
getting uprooted.

What's buried underneath that tree?
