I love you as much as the red roses

Gosh!

My gosh. Ms. Ha.

Ms. Ha!

Sun Ja, what did you just do?

My goodness.

Hey!

(Episode 11)

Mom...

Get that away from me!

I can't stand this. I can't stand that lady!

I'll let her get away with this.

Mom, mom! Hold it in.

Ms. Park apologized.

She was also startled.

Let go of this! Let go of me!

Mom, can't you just let it go?

Mom.

I can live without you.

But I can't live without Mother.

What?

I'm tired to get Da Bin ready for kindergarten.

I hate that my house is in chaos,

and I can't stand crumpled shirt.

Most of all, I want to eat sausage.

I really want her sausage!

Are you serious?

Yes.

She makes the best sausage.

She must have drugged the sausage or something.

It's incredible.

So please hold your anger for me.

Anyway, what is this smell?

Isn't this...

Isn't it the smell of rag?

No way.

Hold on. Did that lady...

splashed dirty water on us?

- I won't let her off! - It's not that!

Mom, I'm sure she didn't do that.

What are you saying? I don't smell anything.

What are you talking about? It smells nasty.

Mom, I don't smell anything.

What are you...

Seriously!

Mom, I'm sorry.

I thought it was deodorant.

Are you kidding me?

Do you think I'm a fly or a mosquito?

- No, it's not like that. - How dare you...

spray insecticide on me?

(Thank you, Ms. Park. I love you, Mother.)

- Actually... - My gosh.

Da Bin colored all of my...

- 10 nails. - Did she?

But my wife complained that it was embarrassing.

So I removed them all.

But I left two fingers polished.

I like them.

No matter how cute Da Bin is, how can you...

still leave that on...

Isn't she adorable?

She is my only granddaughter.

She is the apple of my eye.

She sure is.

But...

You see...

Her cheeks are...

chubby like white buns.

When you look at her,

- she has fluffy cheeks. - Yes?

If you look at her closely,

she smells like a cookie.

Ms. Park, why do you think kids...

smell like a cookie?

It's because they spill their food everywhere.

When I give Da Bin a cookie,

she drops cookie crumbs everywhere.

I understand. Every kid is like that.

But that's the charm.

I know. I agree. She is adorable.

- I know, right? - Yes.

Dad...

Did you get changed?

Yes.

Mi Ok, you look really great.

You totally look like a part-timer here.

- What was that? - Dad, that's enough.

Ma'am.

You still need basic documents to do transfer.

To prove your relationship with the account holder,

we need an official transcript or a family...

- relation certificate... - Hey.

Why do you need that?

Don't you know Lee Yoon Hee?

She is my daughter.

How many times do I have to tell you?

My daughter can't come because she's working.

So I came instead of her!

I've been doing business with this bank for years.

I'm going to remove my account from this bank.

Of course we know you.

I'd like to do you a favor.

But when the finance manager finds out ...

the document is missing, we will be in big trouble.

The regulation became strict these days.

I can't do anything.

Then...

do you want me to go and bring them back?

I don't have time to go to Community Service Center.

My gosh!

Excuse me, ma'am.

Our branch closes late once a week.

Your daughter can do her business then.

Can she come later? Would it be okay?

Is that so?

Then you should've told me earlier.

You've made fun of me.

See you later.

My gosh.

I've got to take this call.

What? Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

Your husband and his parents are here.

- For what occasion? - I don't know.

Uncle. How are they doing?

- Are they doing okay? - Yes.

They are having a lot of fun.

Oh, and Mr. Jung brought flowers...

for your mom.

What?

- Flowers? - Yes.

They are red roses.

I think there are about 100 roses.

100 roses?

(Thank you, Ms. Park. I love you, Mother.)

This is not much.

But it's a little something for you.

What's all this?

There has been a distance between us.

Although we live close from each other,

we never visited you often.

We even left Da Bin to you.

But we never came to thank you.

Thank you so much, Mother.

Please accept our humble apologies.

Don't mention it, Mr. Jung.

Somehow, you took charge of Da Bin.

And we assumed Mi Sun would feel easy that way.

So we just sat back and didn't do anything.

But we figured that...

we didn't do anything as Da Bin's grandparents.

We are truly sorry.

Please don't feel that way.

Anyhow, we are really sorry.

From now on, if it burdens you,

or if you have another schedule,

please call us.

Then we will immediately come...

and help you.

It's very kind of you to say so.

Da Bin is my grandchild, so I took charge of her.

Thank you.

You didn't have to bring this to me.

But this is really beautiful.

I'm glad that you like it.

This flower is...

nothing compared to your hard work.

We didn't know how to express our gratitude.

We wanted to prepare a gift for you,

but nothing came up. Just then...

The rose came up in my mind.

Yes?

It's beautiful and elegant.

Their beautiful quality...

I mean, their dignity is just like you.

What a pleasant joke.

No, I'm not joking at all.

I mean it.

Gosh.

Oh, right. It's almost dinnertime.

I should serve you with dinner.

No.

It's fine. We'll be off soon.

No, it wouldn't be polite of me then.

Wait a little.

I'll go get you a hot bowl of ox-bone soup.

- Give me a moment. - Sure.

What...

Sure. Please do.

I want to enjoy your delicious ox-bone soup.

I'm here, Woo Jin. Do you want some coffee?

Woo Jin.

What are you doing?

Come take a look at this.

I found this below the table on the first floor.

Wait, it's Dol Dam's footprint.

"Kang Mi Hye"?

"Kang Mi Hye".

"Twenty Is Winter"?

"Thirty is Fall"?

This is why the title sounded familiar.

What a pathetic self-copy.

Are you saying that the Kang Mi Hye..

is the one we've been looking for?

Unfortunately, yes.

And she's right there.

What happened?

I should've gone to the party with you.

The world is full of wonder indeed.

Who knew we'd find her this way?

By the way, why didn't we recognize her?

Who knows?

(Dol Dam Gil)

What... Where am I?

I must be crazy.

Is she still asleep?

Didn't you say you couldn't sleep at all?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Did you read Rachel Cole's new book?

Yes.

How was it?

Outstanding.

Right? Isn't its plot fantastic?

She's never disappointing.

She didn't publish any book for nine years,

so I thought her career came to an end.

But she's made such a fancy comeback.

It's already a bestseller.

You should be gifted to be a writer.

Talented writers are bound to write...

good pieces only if they put up with their slump.

I agree. Have some sandwiches before you go.

Here.

Thank you.

Well...

If you have anything you want to say,

do it now. I'll listen.

Ms. Kang.

Are you usually this kind of a person?

You drink every day...

and go out of control when you're drunk.

Do you usually pass out regardless of places?

I'm sorry.

How will you write anything...

if you can't even control yourself?

And you want us to work with you?

Do you know how Haruki Murakami writes his books?

He starts writing from 4am...

when you drink until 4am.

For all your life...

No, at least for the past nine years,

have you been living like this?

I'm sorry.

"I'm sorry. I apologize."

Have you been apologizing for the past 9 years too?

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

Tell me why you're sorry.

From yesterday evening to today morning,

I've wasted so much time because of you.

That is enough.

Even Dol Dam gets his time alone for eating.

Mi Hye. Sorry.

It's okay.

Please don't be.

I deserve criticism.

I don't understand...

what's wrong with me these days.

Anyway, I'm sorry.

This will never happen again.

I'll never show up.

Don't worry.

You made this sandwich for me,

so I'll leave after finishing it.

Goodbye.

Fine.

Let's sign the contract.

Didn't you hear me?

Let's sign the contract, Ms. Kang.

I'm signing the contract! Yes!

Woo Jin.

Are you really going to do it?

[VIU Ver] KBS2 E11 'My Prettiest Daughter in the World' "Mi Hye Signing the Contract" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Oh, right.

Which floor is the Marketing Team on?

It's on the 10th floor.

Will you visit their office?

Mr. Han. We ran out of tissues in the pantry.

What, are you upset?

Are you boiling with anger...

that's been piled up in your heart?

Can you stop it now?

You know he's already having a hard time.

Right, he must be deeply regretting.

Stop abusing him.

This, this, and this.

Organize these receipts.

I'll help out.

Oh, no. You shouldn't.

You've heard Ms. Kang.

"I'll teach Tae Ju myself from now on."

All right.

I'll organize them.

We ran out of water in the pantry.

Really?

Tae Ju. We ran out of water too.

Show us what you're capable of.

Okay, on my way.

Ms. Jeon.

Did I surprise you?

I'm sorry.

No, ma'am.

What brings you here?

It's the core team in our company.

Is it strange of me to pay a visit?

No, ma'am.

We're honored to have you here.

He's our newbie, Han Tae Ju.

And she's Cho Min Hye.

It's nice to meet you. I'm Cho Min Hye.

I'm Han Tae Ju.

I see.

I'm the same newbie as you guys.

That's witty of you.

Please teach them well...

so that they contribute to our company.

Sure thing.

Ms. Kang is instructing them thoroughly.

You don't have to worry.

Did Ms. Kang...

go somewhere?

She's taking her day off today.

I see.

She's usually known for...

not using any of her paid leaves a year.

But she recently went through something.

- Mr. Park. - I apologize.

I see.

Please keep up the good work.

Mr. Park, what's wrong with you?

Don't you know what you shouldn't say to the CEO?

Why should I care? I said that on purpose.

What?

Why do you think she came here?

She belittled Ms. Kang...

and gave our proposal to the Planning Team.

And that weighed on her mind.

So she came to spy on what we're doing.

You saw the look on her face...

when you told her Ms. Kang had taken today off.

It's so obvious.

Will you stop it?

I'm not a fan of Ms. Kang, but this time...

My heart broke a bit.

It hurts a lot.

It's been only a day, and I miss her.

Don't laugh!

I miss her.

I don't believe it.

You and Ms. Park wouldn't stop laughing.

What?

You think she looks like a rose?

Where did you learn to lie like that?

Tell me the truth.

- About what? - Did you upset Ms. Park?

I did not.

Unless you did,

there's no reason for you to visit her restaurant.

What do you mean?

The day you left to play golf...

but returned without playing.

I think you met her...

right outside the building as she was waiting for...

Da Bin's kindergarten bus.

What?

You opened your trunk, and pushed in your clubs...

when you noticed her. You didn't cross paths.

You wanted to pretend you didn't see her...

and go on your way.

But your temper wouldn't allow that.

Honey.

So you went up to her and said something.

"Gosh."

"Ms. Park."

"You gained so much weight."

"Look at your bulging stomach."

"Your apron's dirty too."

- I bet you said that. - What?

Ms. Park got furious.

"Really?"

She'd have rolled up the apron...

and smacked it down...

Don't do that. This isn't a pork trotter.

I'll say just one thing.

What?

As of this moment, I get to do what I want.

I'm free.

What? You're free?

You evil woman.

I'm exhausted, digger wasp, digger wasp

I'm tired of crying, digger wasp, digger wasp

I am so, so, so, so tired

Sun Ja.

How many times are you watering them?

Shanghai, Shanghai, Shanghai

You should water the roots.

What's the point in wetting the petals?

- This is so exciting - My gosh.

You are really excited.

Women just love flowers.

Let's dance the twist

Oh, I almost forgot.

Mom, we're back.

Hello, Uncle.

Hi. Hello, Da Bin.

Hello.

I thought you'd drop her off this morning.

What did you do all day?

She wanted to go to the children's museum.

We had lunch at a department store...

and did some shopping.

Didn't we, Da Bin?

Yes. Grandma. Auntie bought me this.

It's so cute.

I bought you a T-shirt.

Oh, Uncle, I noticed...

your tracksuit's quite old.

I got you a new set.

- You got me something? - Of course.

Mom, try this on. Here.

I can't believe what you went and did.

You just bought me clothes. Why buy more?

That was then. Try it on.

Put that away.

If you took a day off,

you should've dressed up to meet a guy.

What are you doing with your niece?

What's the matter? Da Bin's fine.

Don't you know nieces and nephews are no help?

Da Bin, how about we go to the store nearby?

- Okay. - Let's go.

Oh, dear.

Let's go.

What's wrong, Mom? Are you upset?

I'm upset because of you, okay?

Look at what you do...

instead of getting married.

I said I won't get married.

Why bring that up again?

Will you grow old alone then?

Yes!

How dare you talk back at me all the time?

Anyway, I won't get married.

- Why not? - I don't want to.

- Why? - Just because.

There's no "just because".

Will you live with Da Bin when you're old too?

I don't think...

I can raise a kid well.

I don't think I'll be a good mom.

Why would you say that?

I don't think I can have or raise a kid.

I can see my niece when I want to.

If my kid whines when I'm working,

begs to play and doesn't listen to me,

I think I'd abandon it somewhere...

even if it were my kid.

Hey!

What parent would abandon a child for that?

What's going on here?

Why did I hear yelling?

Mom's nagging me about marriage again.

Where's Da Bin?

At the supermarket with Uncle.

Why do you want her to get married?

She's living a successful life with a great carrer.

It would be crazy to get married.

I'd live alone if I could.

Just date a nice guy...

What kind of older sister says that?

Mom, can you not hit us with a ladle?

Older or younger, you both...

There she is.

- Mom. - Come here.

You're getting drunk...

- and sleeping out now? - Mom.

Did you sleep out? Do you have a death wish?

Will you please just get married?

Will you all stop it?

Kang Mi Hye!

Did you sleep out?

I signed a contract!

Did you really?

Mi Hye!

Get off me.

Really?

No way.

Mi Hye, have some ramyeon.

Chopsticks.

Here.

Can you sit properly?

The lid.

Here.

Watch your hands.

What are you doing? That's gross.

It's an old habit. Sorry.

Why do you keep visiting?

I moved to a workroom nearby.

Why? What for? To do what?

I wanted to work near where I live. Why?

You should be grateful that I put up with you.

Forget it.

You eat this.

Ramyeon soup is the best hangover cure.

- Who did you drink with? - Someone.

You shouldn't sleep out.

Look, Mr. Bang.

You don't know because...

you never signed to publish a novel.

In the literary world,

you celebrate with a drink.

Do you get that?

Did it go well?

You bet.

How much do you get?

What?

How much do you get?

Do you think money is important?

Of course it's important. What else is?

TV and broadcasting has tainted you.

Just tell me the amount.

My goodness.

No wonder you wrote something like "Yes".

And now what?

"Fatal and Dangerous Her"?

That's just terrible.

Doesn't writing that make you...

feel empty and ashamed?

That's what you'll feel when the money comes in.

Darn it. Whatever.

I don't regret remaining in this field.

Dol Dam Gil Publishing...

You said he's handsome and slim.

Yes.

You'll never get slim if you eat ramyeon.

He's handsome?

Yes. He's way handsome.

Is it a con?

Gosh, what?

You know what? Swindlers are...

- handsome. - Wait.

So are you saying that I'd never sign the contract...

unless it's a con because I'm incompetent?

No, Mi Hye. You got me wrong.

Hey, Bang Jae Bum.

How dare you!

I've been trying to be nice to you, but what?

Get out. Just go.

Go home or go to your office.

Just get out of here now.

Okay.

Mi Hye, I'll do the dishes though.

Otherwise, your mom has to do that.

Hey, if you say such things again,

you can never come back in here. Okay?

My goodness.

Should I wash this first?

(Han Tae Ju)

What is this?

Why is this in my bedroom?

What's that smile? It doesn't feel good.

You finally found it.

Did you have dinner yet?

I was about to go out for dinner.

Will you...

have dinner with me?

Okay. Tell me what happened now.

Why was your ID card in my bedroom?

You really don't remember anything?

You called me and asked my room number.

So I thought you remember the whole thing.

So I was waiting for you to buy me dinner.

Why would I...

buy you dinner?

Because you owe me something.

I owe you?

You were really drunk that day.

You were about to pass out in the elevator,

so I carried you on my back...

and passed down the hallway...

My goodness.

By the way, you were really heavy.

Anyway, you were kind enough...

to tell me your room number...

and even your password.

Stop.

I'm serious.

I found out the next day.

That my ID card is in your bedroom.

But you railed at me...

and didn't take me with you.

I can't believe this. I must've gone crazy.

So you're buying me dinner tonight.

I deserve it, right?

The food is here.

- Thank you. - Please enjoy.

Thank you.

Have some.

This is a good local restaurant.

Only the local residents know this place.

All right. Anyway...

Thank you.

I'm sorry though.

For what?

I didn't mean to talk back to you.

But it was my mistake that I imposed on.

I'm sorry. Please don't be mad.

Well...

It's okay. I already forgot about it.

I don't hold a grudge long.

I think you do.

The copies, receipts,

coffee, water tanks, and toilet paper...

Hey, Tae Ju.

Yes, Ms. Kang.

Stop talking and eat your meal.

Thank you for dinner.

Have some.

What do you think?

Well, it's not bad.

How do you like the coffee?

Well... It's not bad.

It turns out...

there are a lot of good restaurants here.

I don't know any of them.

I spend most of my time at work and home.

Oh, right. Shouldn't you go home?

I had no idea...

that you were having such a hard time.

What do you mean?

I happened to see you yesterday.

You were going home with a child.

(Episode 12 will air shortly.)

I mean...

I didn't sneak a look.

It just happened.

But don't worry. I won't reveal your secret.

Hey, Tae Ju! What are you imagining?

I understand. It must be hard to raise a child...

on your own.

Hey, Tae Ju!

Do you think I'm a single parent raising a child?

She is my only niece.

- Your niece? - You are just too much.

You always miss the timing and make a slip of tongue.

You are a handful.

You should glue receipts more.

Ms. Kang, that's...

My goodness! Do I look like a single...

My goodness.

I knew it. She takes after you.

I know you are lying! My Da Bin is beautiful.

What? You are also pretty.

All of sudden?

How dare a newbie talk that freely to your boss?

Are you kidding?

What's wrong with that? We are neighbors.

What? Neighbors?

That's right.

We are outside of the company.

This is our home ground.

- What a nice weather! - Gosh, it's cold.

Ms. Kang, wait up.

Go away.

Da Bin, didn't you think about me while...

you were playing with Mi Ri?

Of course, I did.

- Are you sure? - Of course.

Tell me about it.

I thought that I miss my mom.

Are you sure?

You are the best.

Did you have a lot of fun with her?

Yes, but she cried.

Why did she cry?

What happened?

I said something to her.

What in the world did you say to her...

that she cried?

Didn't I tell you to behave...

and be polite to elders?

Mi Ri lost me.

What?

You said that you would leave me...

in an orphanage if I don't behave.

But a while after, Mi Ri ran around...

and found me.

That's why I got mad at her.

I asked her if she was going to abandon me.

Da Bin.

How can you say that to her?

She loves you so much.

You also said that...

you would leave me in an orphanage...

if I don't behave.

I said that because I got mad.

Da Bin, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have said that to you...

no matter how angry I was.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, Da Bin.

I'm sorry. Will you forgive me?

- Okay. - Thank you.

You know how much I love you.

I love you the most in the world.

But I was embarrassed because Mi Ri...

cried so much.

Did she cry a lot?

Yes, a lot.

She cried like a baby. It made me embarrassed.

I see.

What is it?

Nothing. Let's go.

- Da Bin. - Yes?

Don't say such a thing...

to Mi Ri from next time.

- Okay? - Okay.

I don't think...

I can raise a kid well.

If my kid doesn't listen, I think I'd

abandon... it somewhere even if it were my kid.

Goodness.

Hi, Mom. You're still awake.

What did you mean earlier?

Mean what?

You said you wouldn't get married...

in case you'd abandon your child.

That you wouldn't have any child.

What about it?

Tell me why you said that.

Have you been...

Mom.

I was just saying it.

Without much thought.

You brat.

Think about it.

Niece is cute because I can see her at times.

I don't want to take the responsibility for kids.

You said that...

you were sick and tired of us three too.

You always wanted someone to take us.

Hey.

I said it...

because I was mad.

And I didn't say it all the time.

Well, anyway.

It didn't mean anything.

So don't be bothered by it.

Still, I'll see you...

get married before I die for certain.

I'll make sure to see you get married,

have children, get adored by your husband,

and live happily ever after before I die.

Why aren't you answering?

Okay.

I'm hanging up.

- Mom. - What?

I love you.

You know it, right?

No, I don't.

Here, Da Bin.

There you girl, sweetheart.

With you here, I get to enjoy a hearty meal.

I'm so happy.

You didn't have to make it grand.

We're fine with a simple breakfast.

Simple, my foot.

You should have a hearty breakfast.

You're right, Mother.

Here. Have some.

No. I won't have it. It's fishy.

Tonguefish is not fishy.

I bought this last winter,

dried it in cold breeze,

and kept it in the freezer.

No, thanks.

Mother.

I'll have it.

I love tonguefish.

I craved it so much.

Here.

Delicious.

If I'd been born earlier in the past,

I would've married you, Mother.

You're totally my type.

Well, you aren't.

I see.

Here. Good girl.

Mother.

We're going to work now.

- See you, Mom. - Have a good day.

You too, Jin Soo.

- Have a good day. - See you, Da Bin.

Oh, right. Mother.

What?

I prepared something for you.

Where is it?

What are you doing?

I'm sure I put it here.

You prepared something for me?

It's here.

Mother.

I love you.

My goodness.

You're unbelievable.

I love you, Mother.

Goodness.

Aren't you going?

Let's go already.

Your dad is funny.

We're running late.

He says he loves me.

You are a sly weasel.

Wait for me, honey.

Hello, Ms. Kang.

Good morning.

Good morning, Mr. Han.

What are you doing? Get in already.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Ms. Kang.

You look even more beautiful this morning.

She's got a horrible temper.

- Hello. - Hello.

What do you think you're doing, Tae Ju?

What do you mean?

Go buy coffee in the lobby.

1, 2, 3, 4...

Are you having one too?

I'm fine.

Four cups of coffee, and I don't care about yours.

Are you giving me an errand already?

What, you don't like it?

Mr. Park.

Mr. Han.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll have a cafe latte.

Four cups of coffee and a cafe latte.

Thank you.

Here.

- Thank you, Tae Ju. - My pleasure.

- Here you go. - Thank you.

- Thanks for the coffee. - Enjoy.

All right.

Ms. Kang.

Here's your cafe latte.

Thank you.

I'll be out then.

Mr. Han.

Wait a little.

Everyone will think it's strange...

if things change only after a few days.

I see.

Speaking of which,

make 20 copies of these documents.

[VIU Ver] KBS2 E12 'My Prettiest Daughter in the World' "Mi Ri and In Suk Dining out Together" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Hello, Father.

Mom.

What are you doing?

You know what I'm doing.

I'm helping Da Bin with her backpack. What is it?

I'm just wondering if you had a good night.

I couldn't sleep at all...

because you said she'd grow old alone.

Come on.

Whatever, I'm busy. What do you want?

Mom, have a pleasant, nice day today.

Mind your own business.

Don't skip meals.

Okay. All right.

Bye.

She's wasting money calling me all the time.

- Grandma. - What?

You don't like Mi Ri?

No, I like her.

I like her and you the most.

Give me a kiss.

One more.

They're all clean.

Give me breakfast.

Make your own breakfast.

What about the tonguefish?

You said you'd grill me the fish...

if I wiped your clubs.

Why do you suddenly want the fish?

What are you saying?

You definitely said if I wiped your clubs,

you'd grill me the fish.

That's why I wiped all your golf clubs.

They sell fish at the fish market.

We don't have any right now.

- I'm going out. - What?

Hey.

Wait.

Wait.

Good. They're nice and clean.

Honey, put them in here for me.

Clean the house as well,

and take out the recyclables. Okay?

What?

Then I'll buy the fish on the way back.

Will you do that? Bye.

Hey, hey.

Hey, you.

Hey!

Have fun.

- Bye, miss. - Bye.

Goodbye.

My gosh.

Hello, Ms. Park.

You must've had a busy morning.

Yes, well...

How are our kids doing?

They're fine.

Mi Sun and Jin Soo went to work.

Da Bin just left for kindergarten.

Oh, I see.

Are you...

going somewhere so early in the morning?

Oh, yes.

I'm going to a lecture on the arts.

The arts?

Yes. I just love the arts.

Oh, okay. I see.

That explains the colors of your scarf.

Oh, do you like this scarf?

Then you can have it.

Goodness, no.

That's not what I meant. No, no.

Who cares what you really meant?

If you like it, you can keep it.

That's not what I meant.

My gosh.

It suits you nicely.

You have a lot to do today, Ms. Park.

I hope you have a nice day.

Has she lost her mind?

I'm glad I wore a cheap scarf.

Oh, dear.

What...

My goodness.

Gosh.

What are you doing?

- Thank you. - Thanks.

Goodbye.

I'm working, of course.

Hey.

Are you free around lunchtime?

Why?

Is there a grilled fish restaurant...

near your bank?

Let's have lunch there.

Grilled fish?

Yes.

I've been telling your mom for a whole week...

that I want grilled fish.

I asked her to grill me...

some nice half-dried tonguefish.

She won't even look at me or listen.

She left already.

You know,

when you guys aren't around,

it's almost impossible to get her to cook for me.

So today, you're having lunch with me.

Father.

What?

I had grilled fish for breakfast.

What?

I had some half-dried tonguefish...

for breakfast today.

How could you enjoy that without me?

You jerk.

I got another call.

I'll call you back later.

How could you eat the fish without me,

your own dad?

Where did you eat that?

Did someone buy it for you?

Jin Soo.

Hello, Mother, it's Jin Soo.

What's the matter?

How come you haven't...

changed at all in eight years?

Pardon? What do you mean?

Is it that hard to put your socks...

in the washing machine?

Why do you leave clothes all over the house?

You aren't a five-year-old.

Did you wet yourself?

Why do you hide underwear under the bed?

Will you stop doing this?

Calm down, Mother.

The important thing is,

I have a question.

What is it?

Is that item of underwear really mine?

Do you want to play wordgames with me?

Mother, I swear that...

the underwear is mine.

I mean, it's not mine.

Believe me, Mother.

I'm not that kind of man.

What is it then?

You're the only grown man in this house.

Is it Da Bin's or Mi Sun's?

You're really feeling it today.

Don't interrupt me.

I'm getting carried away.

Our teacher's here.

- Hello. - Teacher.

Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

Are you ready to repeat after me?

All right.

- All right. - All right.

Well done.

Shall we begin the lesson?

- Yes. - Yes.

You're so amazing.

Oh, dear.

Look at the mess of shoes.

Goodness.

Oh, dear.

She didn't even make her bed.

Old or young, they're all the same.

They're all grown up,

but they can't do anything without their mom.

However busy she may be,

she should at least make her bed.

Uncle, where's Mom?

What?

She went to Mi Sun's, but she's not back yet.

I guess she has a lot to do today.

Are you going somewhere?

I'm going to the publishing company.

Oh, right. I heard you signed the contract.

Congratulations!

They say every dog has its day.

You're finally making your comeback.

I know. I will gain my feet this time.

Good luck!

Uncle, you should hurry and find someone.

What?

I will be busy writing,

so I can't help you anymore.

No more valeting and waitressing.

I guess you're right.

So you should talk to Mom...

and find someone. Okay?

I should get going then. Bye.

Good luck. Make a lot of money.

(Wanted: A part-timer)

What?

Didn't you hear me?

Do you want me to say that again?

I will pay you 8.35 dollars per hour...

which is the national minimum wage.

The office hours are 9am to 6pm.

You should clean the 1st and 2nd floors first.

Then you will make coffee and manage the shop...

and the bookstore.

When Peter goes to a market,

you walk Dol Dam.

You should also feed Dol Dam after walking him.

Hey, Mr. Kim Woo Jin.

So did you lie to me?

Lie?

Did you think we'd sign a publishing contract?

What makes you so confident about yourself?

Do you think...

you're still a good writer?

Hey.

No way.

Did you tell your family we signed the contract?

Actually, this is a contract too.

It's your decision...

whether you sign it or not though.

Darn it!

Ms. Kang.

I heard you came to work today.

Yes, Ms. Jeon.

Will you...

have dinner with me tonight?

I...

want to buy you a nice dinner.

Chairman, Mr. Han is here.

- Dad. - Stop right there.

Look at you. You're a mess.

So are you happy to ask for trouble?

Why are you being like this, Dad?

Here.

This is my gift for you.

What is this?

I want you to calm down when you're upset.

It's a puzzle of 1,000 pieces.

You silly...

Doctor Kim says...

you should be careful yet.

Don't worry.

I'm not going to die before I hand down...

this company over to you.

- Have a seat. - Okay.

You've done only part-time jobs before.

How do you feel working officially now?

I'm working hard to learn.

Please don't worry.

You never care about me.

If you did care about me,

you wouldn't have given up the college in...

the States and joined the military like that.

I mean, the Marine Corps.

You said all men should enter...

the military before.

Who told you to talk back to me like that?

Didn't your aunt tell you not to do it?

Gosh, why are you talking about Aunt now?

She's been nothing but nice to me.

You're upset because I didn't visit you often?

- Is that right? - Stop it.

What about Kang Mi Ri?

When you said you'd join the company,

all the executives recommended her.

They said she would teach you competently.

How is it working with her?

As I heard, she's thorough and perfect.

She's good and competent.

Oh, right. And she's very human.

What? She's human?

Yes. She's nice.

Be careful of women though.

Pardon me?

I don't think you can keep the secret for long.

There might be some who already sensed something.

If they find out...

that you're my son...

Ms. Kang isn't that kind of person.

How do you know?

I just know that.

She'd never compromise with her morals...

or flatter her bosses.

I guess she's giving you a good lesson.

By the way,

what makes you trust her so much?

Hello, Ms. Kang.

Have a seat.

I invited you to dinner all of a sudden,

so I was worried if you were upset.

If I had another plan,

I wouldn't have come.

I see.

It sounds just like you.

I ordered some food.

This is my favorite place,

so I know what's good here.

Why did you want to see me?

Take your time.

Let's...

slow things down a little.

We can talk...

over some food and wine.

Would it be okay?

Actually, I'm walking on eggshells around you...

because of the project proposal issue.

You don't have to do that.

You made the decision for the company.

I'm trying to accept it.

That's what I like about you.

You're quick-thinking and decisive.

Then I don't...

have to feel uncomfortable around you now?

We're outside the office now.

Can we talk about private issues now?

What do you want to know?

It's not that I'm curious.

I just want to be friends with you.

I'm new here, so it is unfamiliar to me yet.

I guess it'd be good to have a friend.

I don't think I can be your friend.

You just gave me a flat refusal.

Oh, right.

I guess I'm too old to be your friend.

I'm more like your mom or aunt.

Then don't you have any question to ask me?

Ask me anything. I'll answer all your questions.

Newscaster Jeon In Suk was...

the role model for every female college student.

You were also my role model.

Is that so?

What an honor.

But...

isn't it ages ago for you?

Many announcers mentioned about you...

on their interviews.

I see.

Since I was a big senior to them.

So...

I know well about you.

Then you should have no questions for me.

But...

I heard that you have a daughter.

How is...

your daughter doing?

(My Prettiest Daughter in the World)

We are working outside the office. Get ready.

It's going to be a great day for you.

I brought you to study and experience.

But do you think this is a picnic or what?

She keeps changing her mind.

I'm going to be late again today.

Don't worry. I'll take care of Da Bin.

I'm the king today.

Let's go inside.

Then he must be the one who bought my book.

What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?

Does it satisfy you to play a trick on me?

- Goodbye. - Mi Hye.

What's wrong, Mi Hye?

I hope things would go well for her.

Can I see Ms. Kang's personnel record...

and 10-year work assessment?

I've come to take you home...

when you get drunk and collapse.

Do you really want to disturb me?

- Yes. - Gosh.

You look much prettier when you smile.
