Original subtitles

Hey, Uncle.

Stop it.

Hey, Uncle.

I said, stop it.

Hey, what's wrong?

Hey.

It's not funny.

Hae-seong.

What's the matter? Hae-seong!

Hae-seong!

10 MINUTES AGO

I told you I was busy with the foundation.

It was Uncle's funeral.

You called me in years

just to tell me this?

You haven't changed at all.

He worked as your driver for 20 years.

The least you could've done was come to his funeral.

How dare you speak that way to me?

How dare you disrespect your own father?

If you want to have the right to lecture your son,

you should first do something to earn my respect, Dad.

You darn punk.

I heard you even ignored Uncle

when he desperately wanted to speak to you about something before he passed away.

I'm pretty sure he just wanted to meet so he could ask me for money.

Don't even bother calling me from now on

if you're going to talk nonsense.

You disrespectful punk.

Hae-seong, look at me.

Hae-seong!

Hae-seong!

You ungrateful punk.

What's the matter? Where does it hurt?

What should I do? Hae-seong!

Hae-seong.

Hae-seong, are you okay?

Are you really okay?

Does it really not hurt anymore?

Yes, I'm really okay. Look.

See? It doesn't hurt at all. I'm fine.

I wonder why you were suddenly in so much pain.

I know, right?

I'm hungry. Let's go home and eat.

I'm asking you to move out because you're not paying your rent!

How exactly is that inhumane?

How exactly can you call that an abuse of power?

You should've paid your rent when I asked you nicely!

Let's just keep it short. I want you out of here. Leave right now!

- You're so mean. - Let's go.

My gosh, I'm the one who should be upset!

How dare you say that to me?

Let's go inside.

Why are you whispering?

Because we're going inside without permission.

WE ARE OFF TODAY

I think we could stay here until the staff comes to work tomorrow.

My gosh, Jung-won.

So this is where you work?

I'm impressed.

Looking at it makes me even more hungry.

Jung-won, do you need help with anything?

Can you peel the onions and garlic?

Sure.

I guess this is what it feels like to have an assistant.

Once you're done with that, wash the short-necked clams.

Okay.

You should wear an apron before you ruin your clothes.

Put it on for me.

What do you think?

I think that's tight enough.

No, I was asking about how I look.

- What? - I can easily tell

when I'm next to you.

I've grown old, haven't I?

I even have wrinkles.

You look exactly the same.

You look the same to me.

You almost had me fooled.

My gosh, I can't believe you said I look the same.

That's such a lie.

My gosh, you're so funny.

Stop lying to me and peel the garlic.

But I really meant it.

When will you get promoted as a junior chef?

There will be an unexpected test,

and I have to pass that.

- An unexpected test? - Yes.

I'll suddenly be asked to cook lunch for the staff,

and that will be my test.

We're not even allowed to hold frying pans before we become junior chefs.

If we get caught, we get fired right away.

- Really? - Yes.

Can you pass me the plate?

Chef.

I'm sorry, sir.

The thing is...

That's pretty much what will happen.

That was for having lied to me earlier.

My gosh, come on.

My goodness.

I thought you would've become an artist.

To be honest, when I first arrived at your house,

I was really startled to see you wearing a chef's uniform.

I was a little lost after you died.

I couldn't stop blaming myself for your death.

It felt useless to go to an art college, so I just gave up.

And after that, I just lived without a goal.

I had a few part-time jobs.

But five years ago,

a thought suddenly crossed my mind.

I wondered what you'd be doing if you were still alive.

And I could picture you

wearing a chef's uniform and working really hard in the kitchen.

It's probably because I remembered that you wanted to run a big restaurant.

That day, I went straight to a cooking school.

And that's how I ended up here.

I got scolded a lot in the kitchen, and it was really tiring,

but I still liked it.

I felt really comfortable

wearing a chef's uniform.

You decided to work in the kitchen because of me?

I wanted to achieve your dream

on your behalf.

I know I started out because of you,

but it's become my dream now.

Great. I can't wait until you finally get to cook for the customers.

Yes, I can't wait either.

Then I'll get paid a bit more.

- Eat up. - Okay, let's eat.

My gosh.

It smells delicious.

It's really good.

- Really? - It's really good.

That was a nice meal.

We should clean up

so we don't get caught tomorrow morning.

Yes, I can't let you get fired before you become a junior chef.

- I'll take the plates. - Okay.

Hey.

What should I do?

Stop lying. I won't fall for it twice.

I'm serious this time.

Didn't you hear something?

Get in here.

Ms. Jung, would you like to drink with me if you have time?

Ms. Jung, where are you? Can we meet right now?

Mr. Cha.

What... What are you doing here?

Well, I wanted to practice cooking pasta.

What about you, sir?

Oh, I came to drink.

I thought I'd come and have a drink.

I really can't believe that I ran into you here.

I'm sorry I came in without permission.

Did you say you were practicing how to make pasta?

Yes, I practiced making spaghetti alle vongole.

So how was it?

It wasn't that good.

Really?

Can you tell me what you didn't like about your dish?

Have a seat.

Pardon? Oh, okay.

Do you have some leftover pasta?

No, I finished everything.

Really?

That's a pity.

Then we'll need something to eat.

Wait here.

I'm not drunk at all.

Let's go.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Jung-won, I don't want you to drink.

What are you saying?

Just don't drink.

Hey.

Hey, just hurry up and go back inside.

You're very impatient.

Oh, I was really thirsty.

By the way, are you coming from a funeral?

It was someone I was very close to.

I see.

Mr. Cha, I always follow your recipe,

but why doesn't it taste the same as yours?

That's because you use the same recipe.

What?

It doesn't taste the same because I use the same recipe?

I'll tell you once I come back.

Are you serious?

Here.

You're really weird.

I'm sorry.

I really wanted to drink wine.

It's really delicious.

Really?

That recipe you follow is just numbers. You need to become more familiar with it.

This is really delicious.

I'm glad you like it.

It'll taste even better if you add some syrup.

Just a second.

Tell him you need to go now.

Why isn't he leaving?

I can't just suddenly tell him that I need to go.

We need to finish this.

Hey, what are you...

You really don't hold back.

It's because the food is so delicious.

If you drink this quickly, you'll get drunk.

I'm okay.

Did you hear that?

No.

I didn't hear anything.

I think you misheard it.

Hae-seong.

Yes.

Hello.

The truth is, he came to Seoul to study for his college entrance exam.

So I let him stay with me for a while.

But we couldn't go home tonight because something happened at my place.

So I thought we could stay here for the night. I'm sorry, sir.

Don't worry about Hae-seong.

Is your friend's house nearby?

Yes, it's not too far away.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

No wonder he got drunk. He drank all that wine in an instant.

Don't worry about him. You should go.

I'm sorry.

I'll be off, then.

Be careful.

Okay.

Should I bring him back out?

Oh, right. He doesn't have anywhere else to go.

What if Hae-seong starts telling him stuff because he's too drunk?

Gosh, whatever.

Hae-seong is sleeping at your boss' place?

Yes.

He's in safe hands when he's with us,

but do you think it's okay to leave him with other people?

He'll be fine. He already slept over at Mr. Cha's place two days ago.

Who did you introduce him as?

My cousin.

Then I guess it'll be fine.

Hey, how are things going with your boss?

What's there to ask? He's just my boss.

What kind of boss lets his staff's cousin sleep over at his place?

He's not just your boss. He obviously loves you.

Love, my ass.

Listen to me, you foolish woman who rejected your boss when he asked you out.

Lie down.

It wasn't something serious at all. There's nothing going on between us.

Stop talking nonsense.

By the way,

were you and Hae-seong in love back in high school?

What are you talking about?

Okay, I get it.

You and Hae-seong were best friends and lived right next to each other.

So you guys were just close.

You guys weren't dating or anything, right?

I never even heard that you guys kissed.

Hey, we never kissed.

Yes, I just said I've never heard of it.

Anyway, you're doing a great job of taking good care of Hae-seong.

You told me you need to go to the laundromat.

Oh, right. I need to fetch my blanket.

In my opinion, if you miss your chance with your boss,

you'll never be able to meet a guy like him again. I'm serious.

I'm going to leave the door open because I'll be carrying the blanket.

Okay.

Why did she leave the door open?

Jin-ju, can I go in?

Can't she hear me?

Hey, you're doing a cucumber face mask.

Jin-ju, I'm sorry.

I never meant to see you naked.

But whatever the case, I'd still like to apologize.

I even tried drinking so I could forget having seen you naked.

I tried everything, but I couldn't stop thinking about it.

I blame my eyes for having seen you naked,

and I blame my brain for still remembering what I saw.

Jin-ju, let's be honest. We're all grown up now.

It's not that embarrassing anymore to see each other naked.

I mean, what's the big deal?

I'll let you see me naked as well.

And there's nothing wrong with Brazilian waxing.

Ho-bang! I'm sorry.

I can't listen to this anymore. I'll pretend like I didn't hear anything.

Jung-won, what...

What are you doing here?

You're not even human.

You're a scumbag.

You're even worse than a cockroach!

Get lost before I beat you up.

Get lost before I rip that mouth of yours!

Jin-ju, calm down.

I can't believe you told her about the Brazilian waxing!

Hey.

Hurry up and leave.

What... What is the matter with me?

I'm sorry, Jin-ju!

I'm really sorry! I'm sorry I told her about the Brazilian waxing!

I'm sorry, Jin-ju.

- Hae-seong. - Yes?

Do you like dried pollack soup?

Yes, I do.

I'm not going to go to my art academy today.

Are you going to work part-time?

Yes, of course.

How much does this cost?

Let's eat. Come on.

Okay, I'll be right there.

It looks really similar.

- You should try it. - Okay.

I wonder if Hae-seong will remember me.

I was only seven when he died.

And I'm so much prettier now.

It'll be humiliating if he recognizes me.

It's Hae-seong.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Why are you doing this to me?

Pardon?

Do you really think this is acceptable?

What... What do you mean?

What... What was that for?

You're too good-looking.

This world must be coming to an end.

Here's your outfit. Thank you.

- Thank you. - Goodbye. Thank you.

Welcome.

Hae-seong, I'll see you upstairs.

Upstairs?

Are you...

Are you...

I can't believe you pulled a prank on me.

Hae-seong.

Hae-seong and I are the same age. We're both 19.

My gosh, what did you just say?

I missed you, Hae-seong.

Hey, stop it.

What's wrong? Is it embarrassing?

Yes, it's embarrassing.

What are you guys laughing about?

- Tae-hun. - Hey, Tae-hun.

Tae-hun, thank you so much.

You paid for Yeong-in's hospital bills and even made sure she didn't get fired.

Thank you, Tae-hun. I promise I'll pay you back.

There's no need. Let me know if you need anything.

Did you meet all your siblings?

Well, I met everyone except for Yeong-jun.

You don't need to meet him.

Yeong-in.

Just a second.

Hey, Mom.

Su-ji, sit down.

Honey, he's all grown up now. You can't just force him to go.

He never listens to me, so I have no choice.

Tae-hun, I need you to go somewhere with me.

- Where? - You'll see once we get there.

I want you to do as I say today.

Dad.

TAESAN MEDICAL CENTER

Welcome, Mi-na.

In-seon.

You've met my son, right?

Hello.

Hello, Tae-hun. We met when you were in college.

Yes.

She's my daughter. You know her, right?

Hello.

Hello, Seo-won.

We met when you were studying in the States.

Yes.

Why are you guys being so shy? Go ahead and say hello.

It's nice to meet you.

Hello.

- Mi-na, come and sit down. - Okay, let's sit down.

Come in.

Dr. Seong, the director wishes to see you.

Oh, really?

Okay.

In-seon was always popular during the exam periods.

It's because she got good grades.

But when it wasn't the exam periods, I was the popular one

because I knew how to have fun.

Exams only last so long, so she was always the popular one.

It really got on my nerves.

You've become so pretty.

Thanks to our hospital.

Dr. Seong.

Come here.

You should say hello. Her husband is the owner of Chungho Department Store.

I'm Seong Yeong-jun, a cardiologist.

And that's her son, Vice-president Cha Tae-hun.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Seong Yeong-jun, a cardiologist.

I'm Cha Tae-hun.

Ms. Yun and Chairman Cha are planning to receive a checkup next week.

Make sure they get the best VIP service.

Yes, ma'am.

You may go now.

Tae-hun and Seo-won, you two should meet up often from now on.

I'm going to keep an eye on you to see if you guys meet or not.

You want to know where I was on the night of the accident?

Are you that curious?

Yeong-jun.

I'm not here so I can clear my name and find the culprit.

I met all our other siblings.

We should get together, eat, and have a nice conversation

just like the old days.

I'm sure there are misunderstandings

and some personal stuff to catch up on.

I didn't kill Yang Gyeong-cheol, so you can go interrogate someone else.

And don't ever come see me again.

That's not why I'm here.

I don't care who the culprit is.

I just don't get why you guys ended up falling apart.

Why did you have to be so selfish and abandon the other siblings?

Why do you keep trying to act like you're our big brother?

You're not even my real brother!

What?

What did you say? Hae-seong is innocent?

Hae-seong wasn't the person who killed Yang Gyeong-cheol

in the art room 12 years ago.

What do you mean?

Hae-seong remembers what happened that night.

He can't be the culprit.

Then does he know who the culprit is?

- No. - But do you think

it'll be possible to find the culprit when it's been 12 years?

We were too young back then.

So none of us even imagined that Hae-seong could've been framed.

I applied for the homicide department.

I'm going to do everything I can to find the culprit

so Hae-seong can finally clear his name.

Are you serious?

Jin-ju.

Jin-ju, you're late.

You just said Hae-seong isn't the culprit

and that you're going to find the murderer and clear Hae-seong's name.

Do you really mean that?

Yes, of course.

I'm going to clear his name no matter what.

What are you holding?

Hey, that's food waste.

Why did you bring that here?

What's the matter with you?

You'd better catch the culprit.

I heard that you'll be here today,

so I brought this with me.

But I'll save it until you find the actual culprit.

I need to go now.

Did something happen between you guys?

We should go to Brazil.

Gosh, I was so ready to cover him in food waste today.

Why did he have to be

so attractive today?

I want you to perform a tracheotomy.

He has a tumor right next to his airway. It's too dangerous.

But we can't just let him die due to respiratory failure.

Who is the doctor in charge of An Man-seok?

Dr. Seong, are you his doctor?

Yes, sir.

Let's perform a tracheotomy on him.

This patient has no family or friends. He doesn't have a guardian.

He has no family or friends?

Then who has been paying for his hospital bills?

He has an acquaintance who has been paying for him,

but it's not his guardian.

He can't undergo surgery because he has no legal guardian.

He can't breathe because of an airway contraction.

If you sign the papers, he can undergo surgery.

I'm sorry, but I can't do that.

There's a high chance that something could go wrong.

Sir, what's the matter?

I think my son is going to die.

What?

His airway has contracted because he has been wearing a ventilator

for way too long.

He can't breathe.

Is there no way to save him?

He needs his family's approval to undergo surgery.

It's a dangerous surgery,

so no doctor is willing to take responsibility.

I'm his dad.

It drives me crazy that I can't even tell them I'm his dad.

I'm his real dad.

I'm his dad.

What's this resume for?

I think it's time that we hire another junior chef.

We're getting a lot of customers, so we're short of hands these days.

But I'd rather promote one of our assistants.

Sir, I already told you this before.

Jung-won isn't good enough to get promoted yet.

Mr. An, I personally think we should help our staff grow.

It may give us a hard time now, but it'll give us hope to grow as one.

We're in urgent need of a junior chef.

We can't wait until they get better.

Okay, fine. I'll meet this person.

Then I'll settle a date, sir.

Ms. Jung.

Yes, sir.

- Come over here. - Okay.

About yesterday...

It was very dangerous of you to let an outsider enter the kitchen.

You know very well

that even our waiters and waitresses are rarely allowed in the kitchen.

I'm sorry. I'll be more careful.

How long are you going to be in charge of throwing out the food waste?

I think my son is going to die.

I'm his dad.

I can't do surgery on him.

He can't undergo surgery without the signature of a legal guardian.

This isn't even your business. Why are you bothering me with this?

Are you enjoying this?

That man over there

is the patient's dad.

If he approves as the patient's father, you'll be able to perform the surgery.

This is crazy.

He's just like me.

He passed away a long time ago.

He really is the patient's dad.

Yeong-jun, I'm sorry. Please do me a favor.

Please let him undergo surgery. Please.

Do you think

what you're asking me to do is normal?

You want me to do the surgery with his approval?

Stop talking nonsense. This is a hospital.

Do you even know what will happen if anything goes wrong?

I'm warning you.

Don't ever come looking for me again.

If you do, I won't stay still.

I'll stop.

I won't come here looking for you.

I'll do what you want. I'll act like we're strangers.

I'll stop calling you my brother, so please help him out.

I'm not asking you to save his son.

Just help him out

so that he won't blame himself for not having been able to do anything.

Just acknowledge him as the patient's dad so that you can do the surgery.

Please.

Do you really want to ruin my life?

How many servings of spaghetti alle vongole can we make?

We can make five more servings, sir.

Let's stop serving it today.

- Pardon? - Why?

The clams aren't fresh.

Ms. Jung, I want you to stay after work.

I was wondering when you'll get yourself in trouble again.

They're fine.

Chi-su, smell them for me. Aren't they fine?

- Get out of the way. - Come on. Just give them a sniff.

My gosh, stop it.

Jung-won, that's enough.

Okay.

They really smell fine.

It'll be fine.

I get scolded all the time anyway.

What were you saying?

Oh, well...

I know I shouldn't have done what I did last night.

I know I made a huge mistake.

But I didn't do anything wrong today.

Bring me the clams.

Okay, take a look at them yourself.

They're still very fresh.

Aren't they?

Aren't they?

Am I wrong?

They smell fine to me.

Where's your apron?

- Pardon? - Try cooking a spaghetti alle vongole.

Why?

Is it because of yesterday?

- Are you not going to cook? - Okay, I'll cook it right now.

Add more salt.

Enough for it to seem a bit too salty.

You need enough to season the pasta.

Okay.

The water temperature goes down once you add the pasta.

So you need to close the lid for about one or two minutes.

Then the temperature will quickly rise again.

"Add the pasta and close the lid for one minute."

Let me show you.

My gosh, it's delicious.

It's really good.

It tastes exactly like yours.

This time, I want you to try on your own.

- Pardon? - You should be able

to do the same on your own.

Okay, I'll give it a try.

She isn't home yet.

Is she still at work?

The shell of the clams shouldn't break.

So don't stir too much.

And keep the pasta in the middle.

Then add some broth.

Let's call it a day.

Okay.

I'll give you a ride. Your house is on the way to my place.

No, it's okay. I can take the bus.

There's no need. Plus, it's late.

There's an extra seat, so let me give you a ride.

No, you really don't need to do that. Don't worry about me.

Okay, then. Do as you wish.

I guess she was still at work.

Thank you so much for today.

The spaghetti alle vongole will be my signature dish once I become a chef.

I'll continue to practice hard.

Your wrist will hurt tomorrow.

You should put some ice on it before you sleep.

Okay.

Thank you for today. Have a safe trip home.

Hae-seong!

When did you get here?

Why didn't you answer your phone?

What? You called?

Oh, I guess you called.

Hae-seong, get in the car.

I'll give you guys a ride.

It's okay.

You shouldn't have made her work until so late in the first place.

Do you even know how late it is?

It's okay. We'll just take the bus.

You should go without us.

Ms. Jung, I'll see you tomorrow.

Hae-seong, I'll see you next time.

I don't want to see you again.

Bye, sir.

Hae-seong.

What?

Why did you speak to him like that?

What? How did I speak to him?

He offered us a ride out of kindness.

We have legs, and there's a bus. He didn't need to give us a ride.

What?

And why did the two of you work together until so late?

Where were all the others?

He gave me a special lesson today.

Just you? Why would he only do that for you?

That's not right. He should be fair to all his staff.

He's a very bad boss.

A special lesson, my ass.

Hey, what's wrong with you today?

What did I do?

I'm going home.

You said you're going to sleep at Mun-sik's place today.

- I'm going to go. - Well, go.

I said, I'm going.

Go on, then.

Make sure you lock the door.

What's his problem?

I wanted to tell him about the pasta I made today.

But I didn't get to tell him anything.

Why did he have to act like such a baby?

What's going on between them?

My gosh.

TAESAN MEDICAL CENTER

Thank you.

Thank you so much for letting him get surgery.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Man-seok.

Man-seok.

Man-seok.

It's me, your dad.

I came too late, didn't I?

I died when you were 19, so you must've been through a lot.

I'm sorry, Man-seok.

I'm sorry.

You can't be here, sir.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry that I left you all alone, Man-seok.

Please leave. You need to leave, sir.

Dad.

Yes, that's right, my son!

I promise I'll come back!

I'll come back to see you tomorrow!

Hang in there, Man-seok! Hang in there!

Hae-seong!

Hae-seong!

Hae-seong, thank you. Thank you so much.

My son recognized me.

He called me "Dad."

I'm so happy for you, sir.

Sir, stop crying. You should be happy.

This is all thanks to you, Hae-seong. Thank you so much.

Please thank your brother

for letting my son receive surgery.

- Okay. - And you should

forgive your brother now.

He's a good person.

Okay.

Yeong-jun, thank you for...

SEONG HAE-SEONG

I'm so hungry.

Can we eat lunch now?

Sir, why don't we let Jung-won

cook lunch today?

- Really? - I think we can hire a junior chef

after we check that she isn't qualified for a promotion.

Okay, let's give it a try.

Jung-won.

Yes, sir.

Jung-won will be cooking lunch for us today.

What?

My gosh, she's finally being tested.

- A test? - Yes.

It's her test to get promoted as a junior chef.

If they ask an assistant to cook lunch for the staff,

it's a test.

But if you fail,

you won't be tested for a while.

My gosh, Jung-won must be really nervous.

But this is all too sudden.

Aren't you going to cook?

The clock is ticking.

Okay, sir.

Call me when she's done.

Yes, sir.

Come in.

Sir, she's done cooking.

Okay, I'll be right there.

You must be objective.

If you let her pass just because she's our staff

even though she didn't do a good job,

it'll bring down the quality of our food.

And that will instantly bring a bad outcome for all of us.

I ask all of you for an objective and precise assessment.

If you think

Jung-won's spaghetti alle vongole is good enough for our customers,

please place your votes on the frying pan.

If you think she should work a bit more as a kitchen assistant,

please place your votes on the plate.

Okay, let's begin the assessment.

"You're nervous."

"Are you shaking?"

"No."

"I just put my cell phone on vibrate. That's why."

This isn't fun.

Jung-won, we're all done.

Okay.

I'll work harder.

I'm sorry, everyone. I'll work harder.

It's better for her to be sorry now.

That way, we won't end up having to apologize to our customers.

Okay, then. Let's get ready for business.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

It's not a bad idea to quit now

if you care about the juniors.

Because of you,

the competent ones can't get promoted.

Do you understand?

I'm sorry.

I'll try harder.

Okay, you did a good job.

"You're nervous."

"Are you shaking?"

Why do you keep trying to act like you're our big brother?

The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed to voicemail.

Because of you,

You have a new message.

Jung-won. I see you're not answering.

Can we meet right now?

It'd be really nice

if we could meet right now.

I don't know where you are.

So I'll just wait in front of your house.

Hae-seong.

Jung-won.

Did something happen?

I got your voice message.

No.

I just wanted to meet you.

Jung-won.

Did something happen?

I was tested to see if I could get promoted today.

But I failed.

It's okay.

You can pass next time.

I'm sorry, Hae-seong.

I really wanted to do a good job for you.

But I failed.

I'm sorry,

Hae-seong.

I'm sorry.

Jung-won.

You need to stop trying to live my life.

I'm back now.

Okay?

Start doing what you want from now on.

I'll cheer for you.
