(Episode 55)

I'm sorry for calling you out at this late hour.

It's okay.

I'm glad...

that I can see you again like this.

Do you really mean that?

Sure.

Whenever you need me,

don't hesitate and tell me.

Okay?

Thank you.

Dad.

What?

What...

What's that?

Did you just say,

"Dad"?

Why did you call Mr. Kang, "Dad"?

No matter how much you don't like Dad,

how can you call him, "Dad"?

You shouldn't do that, Myeong Hee.

Pardon?

Myeong Hee.

Although he's nice, he's not your Dad after all.

Mr. Kang won't be pleased.

He's still a bachelor.

He's so young and handsome.

You shouldn't call him, "Dad".

Geum Byung.

I didn't call him, "Dad".

What?

Then...

did you call him by his name?

So I heard you wrong when you called him by name?

I should clean my ears.

But, Myeong Hee.

You shouldn't call him by his first name.

You have a thing for the guy on the second floor.

Geum Byung.

It's cold out, let's go inside.

No.

Where were you going to go with Mr. Kang?

I also want to come.

We're going to shop for dumpling ingredients.

I'm going to make dumplings.

Dumplings? I'm the master of dumplings!

Let me come with you.

What should we do? Will it be okay?

Let her come.

I'll take good care of her.

All right, Geum Byung. Let's go.

Okay. I'm so excited!

Where is the guy on the second floor?

Him?

He's drunk and sleeping right now.

What?

He's drunk and sleeping?

That shmuck is never available when needed!

Oh, dear.

Silly me, I don't usually talk this rough.

I shouldn't be like this.

Let's go, Mr. Kang. Let's go.

We have green onions,

chives,

- and tofu. - What about bean sprouts?

Here it is.

We need five packs of those.

Let's go buy meat.

Myeong Hee. We only need some.

We only put a small amount.

Geum Byung.

Do you think I can make 400 dumplings today?

Of course, my mom made 1,000 dumplings a day.

Making 400 dumplings is just a piece of cake.

- Don't worry. - Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

Myeong Hee.

Doesn't...

Mr. Kang...

seem like a nice guy?

If I call him by his first name,

he would be surprised, right?

What? Are you going to call him by his name?

Yes.

So from now on, I hope...

you won't call him by his first name.

We shouldn't like the same guy.

A love triangle between sisters is a tragedy.

Geum Byung...

It's a secret that I have a crush on him.

If Dad finds out, he'll kick me out.

Okay?

It's a secret.

All right.

He's waiting. Let's go.

Myeong Hee.

Let me do it, you are too weak.

It's fine, I can do this.

Can you mix these, Soo Il?

Geum Byung!

All right.

Mr. Kang, Myeong Hee is tired.

Please mix these.

All right, I'll do it.

You are the man.

You are awesome, Soo Il.

Geum Byung.

I meant to say, Mr. Kang.

Don't mention it.

I like round shaped dumplings more than...

half-moon shaped. They taste better.

What about you, Mr. Kang?

I agree with you as well.

Mr. Kang and I have the same taste in food.

Madam Park, Ms. Kim, Mr. Kang!

What are you doing?

- Preparing dumplings? - Can't you see?

What a silly question.

My goodness.

- Myeong Hee? - Myeong Hee.

Ms. Kim.

Weren't you going to make them tomorrow?

Ms. Oh said to make them tomorrow.

You are right, but I'm going to work tomorrow.

Why didn't you tell me so? I could have helped you.

You must be tired from grocery shopping,

and making filling for dumplings.

I'm fine. I'm not tired at all.

You should've told me. Let me help you.

Don't seat by him, seat here.

Okay.

Our recipe for dumplings is...

to stuff fillings to the full.

It's more delicious that way.

- Like this. - Gosh.

Ms. Cho, fill it up.

Make it with more effort. If you shape them ugly,

your future child won't be pretty.

You'll have a daughter looking just like you.

My goodness. What's wrong with that?

Actually, I'm complimented on my good looks.

Also in my 20s, I was popular among many guys.

Is that so?

They must have been blind.

What?

My goodness.

- What? - Be quiet.

Be quiet.

Myeong Hee, do you really think that too?

She has poor taste.

- That's annoying. - Don't laugh.

I can't wait to taste it.

Me neither.

Really?

Of course, it's drop-dead delicious.

Finally, we are done.

I'm done too.

- Me too. - Me as well.

Good job, guys.

Taste one of the dumplings when they're cooked,

and go back upstairs after.

- I'll clean up. - No, I'll do it.

You worked late because of me.

I think Ms. Oh, went a little too far.

You have to go to work tomorrow,

so why did she make you do this?

She must've done it on purpose...

so you can't go to work.

What?

Are you saying...

that sleeping mistress of my father...

told my sister to make dumplings on purpose?

No, that's not it.

You know we have dumplings every winter.

That's why we made them.

Yes, she's right.

Right, that came out wrong.

I saw you all agreed to say that!

Do you take me for a fool?

I won't leave this wench alone!

Madam Park, I said it wrong.

- It was my mistake. - The dumplings are ready.

Let's try them.

It's hot!

- Ms. Kim! - Myeong Hee!

Are you okay?

Oh my goodness.

Father. Father, my sister...

Father, come out quickly.

What should we do? Gosh, Myeong Hee.

Oh my goodness. Father.

- What's this noise? - Father, come out.

- Father. - Isn't it Mother?

Myeong Hee burned herself.

Gosh, poor Myeong Hee.

Father, come out quickly!

It's in the middle of the night,

so what's going on?

Oh, no.

Can you make an ice pack? Hurry.

Okay.

What if she gets a scar on her fair arm?

This is bad.

I'm okay. It's only a minor burn.

Please don't worry.

You got hurt because of that mistress.

That witch. I won't let this slide.

Madam Park, please don't do this.

What are you all doing at this hour?

Gosh, what's all this?

- You witch... - Gosh!

- Mother. - You horrible wench.

- Mother. - Grandma, stop!

Let go. You horrible witch!

Mother, what's wrong with you?

- You wench... - What's all this?

- What's this? - Let go.

Father, it's all because of that mistress witch.

She told my sister to make dumplings,

and she burned herself while steaming them.

What?

Do Ran, are you okay? Let me see.

You really burned yourself.

- Is it serious? - Only slightly.

It's all because of that mistress.

Kick her out already.

She told Myeong Hee to make 500 dumplings...

on purpose to give her a hard time.

So we made dumplings all night long.

If Mr. Kang and Ms. Cho hadn't helped her out,

she could've struggled so hard all alone.

This is frustrating.

Did you really tell her to do it?

Didn't I tell you to prepare them...

during the day tomorrow?

Yes, she told me to make them tomorrow.

- I'm sorry. - See? You heard her.

You wench. She has to go to work tomorrow,

so how is she supposed to make dumplings?

- Mother. - What an evil woman.

Why didn't you make your daughter do it...

instead of my sister?

You better not do this ever again.

- Myeong Hee, let's go. - Okay.

Horrible witch.

I can't believe this.

So did you help her make dumplings,

Mr. Kang and Ms. Cho?

Yes, all of us including Madam Park.

- I'm sorry. - Don't be.

You two should go rest now.

Okay, sir.

Mother, did you really tell Do Ran...

to make 500 dumplings?

It was 400, not 500!

Mother!

Don't you know she works? How could you?

I can't believe you, Mom.

Why did you have to tell her to make dumplings...

and cause this ruckus at night?

What's so important about those dumplings?

It'd be better to just buy them.

Why those little...

Da Ya, clean up before you go back to your room.

And I need to talk to you, honey.

What?

Does he want me to clean all this?

Oh, dear.

Just go back to sleep upstairs.

- I'll do it. - Okay.

What was that?

The chairman told her to do it, but she just left.

What should I do with that rude girl?

Why do you treat Do Ran like that?

What did I do?

I get that you aren't fond of her,

but how could you give her a hard time this bluntly?

I didn't give her a hard time.

Making a few dumplings isn't hard.

She is our eldest daughter-in-law.

She's our family now.

So be nice to her already.

You want me to be nice to her?

She doesn't deserve it, so how can I?

Don't ask me for it.

Are you saying you'll be all petty...

and keep giving her a hard time?

What? Petty?

Yes. She's a working woman,

but you gave her a ridiculous task.

What else can be called petty?

Why do you think she made dumplings...

in the middle of the night?

Whose side are you on?

Have you ever considered how I feel?

I still feel upset and resentful...

whenever I see her face.

I don't understand why my beloved son...

ended up marrying such a girl...

and how all this happened.

I think about it hundreds of times a day.

You...

What's it to you whether I give her...

a hard time or not?

Housework is my jurisdiction,

so stay out of it.

You'll regret all your behavior...

if Dae Ryook gets too irritated...

and decides to move out.

Don't go too far.

My gosh.

He sided only with his mother before,

and now he's siding with Do Ran?

I can't believe this.

Goodness gracious!

Darn it!

Mr. Kang.

They want you to deliver this to Ms. Jang's family.

Okay.

We worked our butt off to make those dumplings,

but others get to eat them all.

Well, Ms. Oh...

seemed very angry at Ms. Kim.

How was she this morning? Has she gotten any better?

No, she didn't even come out for breakfast.

She stayed in her room.

Did she?

I think this will continue for some time.

But Madam Park's got Ms. Kim's back.

She cares about her every time her symptoms show.

So Ms. Oh can't do as she pleases about Ms. Kim.

I think that makes Ms. Oh more irritated.

Ms. Kim seemed like she was doing her best though.

Why can't Ms. Oh adore her a little?

Although Ms. Oh is quite fickle,

she holds no grudges, so things will get better.

- You think so? - Of course.

This is no time for this.

I'm so busy without Ms. Yeoju.

- Have a good day. - You too.

Do Ran has to work both inside and outside.

It must be so hard for her.

Hong Joo!

How did you find out where I live?

I heard you came back to Korea...

and looked so much for you.

I came here just in case,

but you still live in this place.

What brings you here?

Why don't we go for a cup of tea?

Why would I?

I don't want to.

I got divorced.

So... What of it?

I regretted ever since I broke up with you.

I never forgot about you.

No, I couldn't.

Hong Joo, I'm sorry.

I know it's unforgivable,

but give me one more chance.

- Hong Joo. - Let go of me, you jerk!

Hong Joo, I heard your husband passed away.

I'll be good to you.

I still love you so much.

- You're crazy. - Hong Joo.

- Let go of me! - Hong Joo.

Let go of me!

- Hong Joo. - Let go.

Hong Joo.

Mr. Kang.

Are you okay, Hong Joo?

I'm okay.

Who's this man?

Who are you to interrupt us?

What are you...

I will marry him soon.

So don't show up again or look for me.

I don't even want to see you.

Okay?

What? You're getting married?

- Already someone then? - Yes!

So get lost!

Hong Joo.

Are you okay?

- Yes, Mr. Kang. - So...

Who was that man?

That man...

was the guy I liked since high school.

At first,

he was poor, but innocent and smart.

I was actually in love with him.

So despite Hong Shil's objections,

instead of going to college,

I found a job and supported him.

From my mid-20s until mid-30s,

I spent my youth supporting him.

I thought that was love.

I even paid for him to study abroad in America.

But he betrayed me...

and married someone else there.

Now after 10 years,

he came back saying he's divorced.

How could he?

To think that...

I tried to die for someone so dastard.

If I'd died then,

it would've been for nothing.

But...

I'm grateful because he helped me meet Freddie.

After he betrayed me,

I tried to jump into the Hudson River.

But Freddie saved me.

He was my ex-husband who was 28 years older.

Hong Shil teased me that he was a grandpa,

but Freddie taught me about love.

And also the courage to live.

That's why...

I'm no longer afraid of anything.

I'll visit Myeong Hee at work.

She said there are many handsome guys there.

Oh, dear.

What if they're shocked by my beauty?

Oh, no. Where am I?

My gosh!

Myeong Hee!

Oh, dear. Myeong Hee. Myeong Hee.

Oh, dear.

Madam Park.

Where is she? She was asleep earlier.

Ms. Oh! Ms. Oh!

Madam Park's gone!

What should I do? Ms. Oh!

- Hello. - Ms. Kim.

I have bad news. Madam Park's missing.

What?

What did you say? Grandma?

Okay, I'll be there immediately.

Director, bad news. Grandma's missing.

- What? - We must hurry home.

Madam Park? Again?

- Apparently so. - That's terrible.

Tada, tada.

What's this?

It's a gift to thank you for your investment.

Take a look.

- It's from the company? - Yes.

Gosh, what's this?

A mink scarf?

Well? Do you like it?

Of course, I do.

What woman doesn't like fur?

It's so nice.

It's so smooth it's almost slippery.

I'm going to...

the Philippines and Las Vegas on business.

I will bring you a gift as well.

Don't you feel too lonely without me.

Look forward to my gift.

Forget the gift and all that.

Will the interest come into...

my account starting next month?

You're at it again.

The first two months,

just the interest. Then the principle too.

How many times will you ask?

I'm getting tired of having to explain.

It's just because...

I need to prepare for my move.

Let's see, in three months it'll be flowery March.

It's the perfect time to move!

The onset of spring brings you luck.

- You're right. - Yes.

It'll be March.

- It suits you, Yang Ja. - It's lovely.

She's not in the house or garden.

It looks like she went out.

Yes, I think she sneaked out.

Where did she go? She's such a nuisance.

Mom, Grandma's missing?

What do you mean Mother's gone?

Were you not at home?

I was, but she just disappeared.

How did you not know she had gone out?

How can you say something like that?

I can't keep her tied down.

She sneaked out on her own!

Should I do nothing else but watch her all day?

Why don't you quit work...

and be on her watch 24 hours a day?

Mom.

Did Mother not ask for Myeong Hee today?

She was fine and didn't ask for Myeong Hee.

So I thought she was in her room.

She went looking for you because you weren't home!

So I told you to quit work and stay home.

- Why won't you listen? - Mom.

Are you blaming Do Ran for this?

- How could you say that? - That's enough. Quiet.

Yi Ryook, call the police.

The rest of you, start looking.

Dae Ryook, Do Ran, Mr. Kang, go.

Okay, Dad. Let's go.

When the flowers bloom next spring

I will move to a nice house

So Yang Ja's life is finally blooming.

Raising Do Ran was good for something.

I could invest because I got paid for childcare.

Who's sitting outside our house?

Hey, isn't that Madam Park?

My gosh.

Madam. What are you doing here?

You wench. Where's Myeong Hee?

- You wench... - Wait, wait.

Madam, what are you doing? Just give me a moment.

You evil witch.

You colluded with my dad's mistress...

and got rid of Myeong Hee, didn't you?

Where did you send her, you evil thing?

Madam, can you let go so we can talk?

- What's wrong? - Tell me.

You're pulling all my hair out.

- Save me! Save me! - You witch.

Won't you tell the truth already?

- Save me! - How much...

did you get for selling Myeong Hee?

Will someone help me?

How could you sell someone for money?

You'll pay for that.

- Mom! - Tell me.

- What are you doing? - Where is she?

Who's this?

Hey, I know you.

You're Myeong Hee's friend, aren't you?

What? Myeong Hee?

She's your sister's grandma-in-law.

The demented old woman.

How dare you call me an old woman? You brat.

Hey. Do you know where Myeong Hee is?

I think that witch and my dad's mistress...

sold her off somewhere.

Did you see her?

Say that you saw her.

- Oh, I saw her. - Did you?

Did you see Myeong Hee?

Yes.

It's cold, so come inside with me.

I'll call Myeong Hee for you.

You'll call her?

Then...

do you know where she is?

Yes. Come inside with me.

Okay. Thank you.

Myeong Hee has one great friend.

- Let's go inside. - Okay.

My gosh, what is this mess?

Is that what dementia's like?

It's so scary.

Grandma!

Grandma!

Grandma!

Mom, I'm busy now. I'll call you back.

Your grandmother-in-law.

She's in our house now!

What? What did you just say?

Your grandmother-in-law is at my house now!

She tore all my hair out. Come and take her quickly.

I'm cold, but I can't even go into my house!

Okay. I'm hanging up.

What? Is anything wrong with your mom?

Director Wang, Grandmother is in my mom's place now.

What? Let's hurry then.

What is your name?

Myeong Hee told me before, but I forgot.

- It's Mi Ran. - That's right.

You came over to my house several times.

But I forgot your name already.

By the way, where is Myeong Hee?

Are you sure you called her?

Yes, ma'am... I mean, Geum Byung.

Myeong Hee should be here soon.

Have some mandarin oranges.

Okay. Thanks.

You're so pretty.

Not more than Myeong Hee though.

Myeong Hee and I take after my mom.

So a lot of people say we are pretty.

Hey, don't you like my lip color?

Yes, I like it. It's so pretty.

Really? All right.

I'll give you this then.

I can buy a new one.

I'm giving you this for calling Myeong Hee for me.

Thanks, Geum Byung.

That's very expensive.

That's all I can give you right now.

Come over to my place later.

I'll give you a pretty hairband.

Okay. Thank you.

You're so pretty.

I'm cold. What's all this?

I'm freezing, but I can't even go in.

Hello.

Hello, Mr. Wang.

- Where's my mother? - She's in there.

She acted so scary and intimidating to me.

But she says my second daughter...

is Myeong Hee's friend.

She thinks Mi Ran is Myeong Hee's friend?

Yes. So she's peacefully eating some fruit...

with Mi Ran in there right now.

Ms. So,

I'm sorry to have caused you trouble for my mother.

No, it's okay. Please go in.

I'm afraid she'd rip my hair again...

so I'm not going in.

Do Ran, go in with them.

Okay. Father, Mother, let's get in.

- Please excuse me. - Yes.

Wait.

Now I understand how you feel.

As soon as she saw me, she ripped my hair out.

How could you even live with her...

when she rips your hair every day like that?

You are such a devoted daughter-in-law.

And she pulls your hair out every day,

but you still have a good head of hair.

Do you have any secret...

to maintaining your thick hair?

Women at our age...

always want to have thick hair.

My gosh.

Am I talking to a wall or what?

Still, I'm her in-law.

How could she treat me like this?

So she thinks she's better than me?

All right. I'll just let it slide for Do Ran.

Thank you, miss. I'm sorry for the trouble.

No worries. We had a lot of fun conversation.

Thank you, Mi Ran.

I'm really fine.

Mother, let's go. Why did you come here?

I'm sorry, Dad.

I actually wanted to go to Myeong Hee's office,

but I got lost so I came here instead.

Myeong Hee, where's your office?

Let's go, Mother.

Thank you, Mother.

Okay, Dae Ryook. Drive home safely.

Hey, Myeong Hee.

Thank you for calling me.

Don't thank me. It's no big deal.

Forget it.

I should get going then.

Hey, Do Ran. Wait.

What's wrong with your face?

You don't look well, and your skin is so rough.

Is your mother-in-law giving you a hard time?

Why would she give me a hard time?

They all are nice to me.

- Are you serious? - Sure.

But why did you not call me even once?

Do you really want to cut ties with us?

I should go.

We should hurry and take Grandma home now.

Gosh, you're so cold-hearted. Okay.

Get home safely.

I don't think they are nice to her.

Her cheeks are sunken in.

It's obvious.

Her mother-in-law is really something.

She must've been giving her a hard time.

Is she asleep?

Yes.

I was so frustrated earlier.

I was afraid she'd get lost and wander around.

And I was scared we wouldn't find her.

I was torn by anxiety.

I felt the same way.

I'm just glad that she remembered...

your mom's house and went there.

Director Wang.

I think I should quit my job after all.

Do Ran.

Don't quit your job when you don't want to.

Let's find a way to prevent the same thing...

from happening again.

What if Grandmother looks for me...

and gets lost again?

I'd feel better to stay with her.

And Mother wants me to quit my job...

and concentrate more on the housework.

Are you sure you're going to be okay?

Yes. I'll feel more comfortable that way.

Just tell Father that...

and find someone to replace me.

I'm sorry, Do Ran.

Don't be.

I'm really fine.

I'll have fun with Grandmother...

and learn how to keep house.

I'll be a professional housewife.

Thank you, Do Ran.
