Saet-byeol…
I would like to be
someone special to you, too.
Will you accept my red tulips?
Mr. Choi,
I'll answer that
later.
I'm not dreaming to become someone as great as you are,
but I want to achieve something on my own, too.
I'll answer you when I pass the GED.
Sure. You've waited for me until now,
so I'll wait for you this time.
Saet-byeol, don't you ever feel like you've achieved nothing.
You're responsible, loyal, a great fighter…
And you're diligent.
That's why the head office is naming you as the assistant manager of the store.
Saet-byeol, you're already enough.
You're awesome.
Thank you, Mr. Choi.
It's nothing.
It's beautiful here.
Is there no wine or anything?
What wine?
People usually drink wine when they come to places like this.
-What wine? -Maybe I've watched too many dramas.
You mean something like this?
Is this what you want?
You drink. I'll go and plant the tulips.
You lost.
-I lost again. -Freshen up!
Give it to me.
Welcome…
Yong-pil…
Jang-mi, how did you get here?
I thought of how you said that you run a convenience store in Shinseong-dong.
I also have to ask you a favor before I go to China tomorrow.
What favor?
Don't you think it'd be possible to find Bun-hui
if you look into Busan alumni associations?
Bun-hui again? You have to forget about her.
How can I?
Bun-hui is the person I missed the most ever since leaving Korea.
Jang-mi, I really don't know what Bun-hui is doing.
I haven't seen Gong Bun-hui for 40 years!
Dad!
Why are you saying that you don't know…
You're here.
Is that your son, Yong-pil?
He's handsome.
Hello…
How do you know my dad?
We were friends in high school. My name is Hong Jang-mi.
Hello…
Alone in the audience
Jang-mi, I love you.
Look at the time.
Jang-mi, come here.
I need to talk to my son about something very important.
Is that so?
Yes. I'll call you right away if I ever hear from Bun-hui,
so just wait for my call in China, all right?
-I think I should stay until I meet… -Go.
Go! You can go now. Bye.
-Go. -Fine.
Gosh…
Dad! I know she's your first love,
but how could you say that you don't know Mom?
It's all a misunderstanding. It's a long story.
Dad, no story can ever justify that. Ever!
Jang-mi used to be best friends with Bun-hui,
but Bun-hui doesn't want to see her!
My goodness.
My best friend disappeared without leaving a single letter.
You must miss her.
As if. That brat. I already erased her from my head.
Is that the best friend who left
without leaving a single note for Mrs. Gong?
Saet-byeol, how do you know about her?
Mrs. Gong told me about her and how she never wants to see her again.
See? I told you!
Don't you ever tell Mom that Jang-mi is in Korea, okay?
Dad!
Take over my shift. My back hurts.
No, you can watch the store the whole night.
Let's go, Saet-byeol.
Mr. Choi, I think…
I think you should tell her…
Why is everyone always on Bun-hui's side?
What did I ever do wrong?
-Mom. -We're home.
Hey…
Why are you two coming together? What about the store?
Dad is going to watch it overnight.
He has been avoiding me lately. Did he do something wrong?
No, nothing. What are you up to?
I heard that taking a foot bath
is the best thing to do to get foot-swelling to go away.
You should just buy a foot bath machine.
A foot bath machine? We're still paying the installments for Dad's massage chair!
Those machines easily cost 200,000 won. We can't afford one.
Actually, I think what you've got is pretty good. It has a massage function.
Massage function? It doesn't.
Of course it does, Mom.
See? Give me your foot. Like this.
What a luxurious day I'm having today.
Is this my lucky day or something?
I couldn't decide on what to get you with my first pay as an advisor.
-But I'll get you a foot bath machine. -Really?
Yes. Some shoes as well.
No, you can't buy me shoes.
I might run away if you do.
I'll buy you shoes when I get my first pay as the assistant manager.
What? You're going to be an assistant manager?
I've handed the ownership of the store to the headquarters.
They offered to promote Saet-byeol as the assistant manager.
Really? That happened?
That's amazing! That's great news.
Congratulations, Saet-byeol.
-Thank you. -That's awesome.
Goodness…
What a great man Mr. Choi is.
He's a perfect son.
And a perfect man.
I would like to be
someone special to you, too.
Will you accept my red tulips?
I've been dreaming about that moment forever.
Why couldn't I answer him right away?
I took
slow steps toward Mr. Choi, one step at a time,
and I've reached my goal now.
So, why?
Why do I feel happy, yet just as anxious at the same time?
Aren't you hungry? I'm going to have some ramyeon.
-Gosh, you startled me. -Saet-byeol.
I'll make you some good ramyeon.
Why did you two come out at the same time?
WHEN MOM HEADS BACK TO HER ROOM
I'LL MAKE YOU SOME DELICIOUS RAMYEON WITH EGG AND RICE CAKES.
GREAT. WHAT ABOUT SCALLIONS?
OF COURSE. IT'S NOT RAMYEON WITHOUT SCALLIONS.
What are you two doing?
-Are you two dancing? -Yes.
-We're dancing. -Yes.
Hold up.
We need to come up with a code.
A "code"?
What kind of code?
Just to be safe.
What's your favorite fruit?
Grapes!
GRAPES
Okay, then. From now on, "Grapes" mean "Let's meet."
What?
And "Strawberry" means "No." Is that okay?
STRAWBERRY
You're such a kid.
These are our codes, okay?
Strawberry!
I'm going to go to sleep now.
Goodnight. "Grapes" tomorrow.
Grapes.
He's so cute. Grapes!
Grapes! Goodnight.
Grapes? Grapes.
This is adorable!
FRANCHISE CONTRACT GS RETAIL
This is the franchise contract. Take a look.
FRANCHISE CONTRACT GS RETAIL
The hours of operation are stated right here.
Here…
-Hold on. -Okay.
What? The Jangchung-dong branch?
I'm…
I'm busy with something.
All right, then.
Mom, I have to get going. Something urgent came up.
-You're leaving? -Yes.
I've looked over the contract,
and Director Yoo here will explain the rest to you.
Don't worry, you can go.
Mrs. Gong and I will take care of the rest.
Assistant Manager Jung, have a great shift.
See you later, Advisor Choi.
-I'll be back soon. -Come back quick.
Grapes.
I was wondering how Dae-hyeon has been at work.
I hear that he has a lot of responsibilities.
The head office has a lot of regrets.
We regret not recognizing such a great man earlier.
You scared me.
I didn't know you could joke like that.
You scared me for a moment.
And this is for you.
Here…
Look at that!
My goodness.
Will you look at that?
Of course I do!
This costs 400,000 won at least, no?
You've spent quite a bit of money.
Or is it 500,000 won?
You've spent so much money. This bag must be so expensive.
It goes perfectly with my cardigan today.
-Do you like it? -Are you kidding?
Seems like quite a few crocodiles went into making this.
I wanted to thank you.
I forgot about how valuable of a man Dae-hyeon was,
and you reminded me of that.
Don't you think you realized that a little too late?
We'll see about that.
See about what?
Hello?
Yes, I'm Jung Saet-byeol.
Sorry? What did you just say?
What was that?
They're so good!
Look at them.
I'm sorry I embarrassed you.
I'm sorry. It was all me.
Let's practice some more and crush them into pieces.
Yes, let's!
My!
-Are you okay? -There was a mosquito.
Sorry, it was a reflex.
-I think my jaw is dislocated. -Fire Volcano…
There's a place that I really wanted to go with you.
-Where is it? -Give me your hand.
What do you think? It's fun, isn't it?
-Is this where you wanted to bring me to? -Yes.
This is so fun. Here I go.
Welcome. Namaste.
-Namaste. -Namaste.
Are you guys friends?
-Namaste. -Namaste.
-You must be older, then. -Namaste.
Namaste. Why is she getting mad at me?
The point isn't how well you do this. The point is that you try your best.
Open up to each other. And let your hearts communicate together.
-Namaste. -Namaste.
All right. Start.
Come to think of it, we don't know each other's names.
I'm Han Dal-sik.
I'm Hwang Geum-bi.
By the way, when will we make our relationship official?
Today…
First of all, congratulations.
We caught Kim Man-bok of Manbok Real Estate.
Will we be able to get all of our deposits back?
It's not that he didn't.
He invested some of the money in a con artist.
But the con artist tried to take a bigger cut,
so he actually gave Man-bok back his investment and the interest.
And that's when we caught him.
Anyway, you will get your deposits back after going through the protocol.
I should move out of my parents' house too.
Where did you stay, Unit 1006?
Me? I was staying at the convenience store owner's house. I work for him.
I stayed with his family.
Gosh, it must have been so uncomfortable for everyone.
No. Everyone was so nice to me and treated me like family.
But still, you're a stranger to them.
They didn't show it, but I bet it was uncomfortable for them.
Daily Guru!
TODAY'S HOROSCOPES FOR SAET-BYEOL
If you're not sure if you should go for it, I say go for it.
If you hesitate, it will make you regret even more.
"Regret even more"?
TODAY'S HOROSCOPES FOR SAET-BYEOL
Gosh, should I move out?
Gosh, should I not? Should I just move out?
Go where?
-Why are you so startled? -Mr. Choi.
Where would you go?
What is it? Where are you going?
Well, actually, you know…
I…
-I… -You…
I…
"You"? You…
I want dumplings!
-Dumplings. -I want dumplings.
You took a long time to say that.
You must want to eat really good dumplings.
-Yes. I want huge dumplings. -Huge dumplings.
Okay. Instead of dumplings,
I'll treat you to a really delicious meal.
-A delicious meal? -Yes.
What is it?
ULTIMATE CHEESE POCKETS
-Dig in. -Thank you for the food.
Mr. Bae Geun-sik will be the manager of our branch.
-Mr. Huff-and-Puff? -Yes, him.
If something is bothering you or if he bullies you,
talk to me. I'll show him my teeth. Okay?
I feel reassured. You're really in my corner.
Of course, I am.
-Really? -Of course.
This is why I bought you this delicious pizza.
Perhaps, getting her approval might be harder than getting my dad's.
This feels like I'm standing right before getting CBR training in Nonsan Bootcamp.
My gosh, no way! Hey, you fulfilled your military duty?
Four weeks. It was only for a month.
That's so cool!
Get your spirit of a soldier and charge forward!
Left foot, left foot, left foot…
I can't go.
My soldier, trust me and follow me.
Saet-byeol!
-What's happening? -Saet-byeol.
What is that? What?
-What? Are your hands glued? -Why?
Something stronger is binding us.
What? Superglue?
-Gosh, you'll get hurt. -You shouldn't play with that.
Bring me a bottle of acetone.
-Who did this? -Hey.
-This is…
-It's destiny. -Who's Destiny?
-It's our destiny! -It's our destiny!
The fan who always left the first comment on my webtoon
wasn't a man who sounded like a woman. It was Geum-bi.
Saet-byeol, superglue isn't binding us together. Our great love is.
Like this.
My Dal-sik was the webtoon artist of Her Reggae Boy.
The moment we found out about each other, this caveman became a romantic.
This scary horse became the sweetest girl.
Hey. Wait, then…
Dal-sik, when did you make a girlfriend?
Dae-hyeon, destiny can be such a fascinating thing.
I guess we are all destined to have our soulmate.
My gosh. Right.
I'm sure that's true. There's destiny.
Hey, what's going on with you and Saet-byeol?
Well, you know…
You. Are you dating her behind my back?
That's not it.
Listen. Saet-byeol likes you, and you like her. What's the problem?
Right. That's true.
I get the feeling that things will work out between you two.
Then, the four of us should have a party. You can prepare the party.
Hey, this isn't right.
If the company is taking over the store, why should we clean up?
You know that I worked at a moving agency before I got into insurance, right?
Some people clean up the house because they lived there.
Some people leave behind a huge mess because they wouldn't be living there.
Which one leaves a better impression?
The new manager will clean it himself anyway.
We might not think the store isn't messy because we see it all the time.
But a new manager is bound to find some dirty corners.
We're handing over the store because Dae-hyeon became an executive.
If we just work a little bit, it will make a good impression on him.
Dae-hyeon, are you going to work? Come on, say something.
Well, I'll do whatever Mom says.
Since this is a family occasion, I'll call the company and take a half-day off.
-He's such a good son. -You brat.
But you have to promise me one thing.
Promise what?
You have to stay until we finish.
You can't tell your client "I'll be there soon" and run off.
If you do that, I'll kill you.
Gosh, he's going to kill me. How scary.
All right. Sure. Don't worry about that.
Even if my client begs me to come,
I'll kick my client like this. Okay?
Gosh, Yong-pil is so scary.
Fine. Let's do it.
I should tell him that the police caught Man-bok.
But I didn't get my money back yet.
When I get the money back, I'll tell him then. Okay. Great.
Yes, that's the right thing to do.
Hello…
-Saet-byeol. My Saet-byeol. -Saet-byeol.
No, we're not. We're going to clean the whole store today
before the company takes over.
I see. The store?
My gosh, no one is going to appreciate our effort.
Nonsense…
But the dust will feel our effort, right?
Saet-byeol, you can go home now.
We'll clean this place as we run the store today.
My gosh, no. I should help too. I'm an employee here.
Yes. That's right. The three of you can clean, then.
-I'll go now. -Choi Yong-pil.
Give it back. I'm going to work so hard!
-I'm getting a call. What is this? -All right.
Yes, Ms. Kim from the wallpaper store.
I see. Your daughter-in-law is pregnant?
Congratulations. Yes.
Of course. We have one for babies.
Is that so?
Then, why don't I visit you now?
Okay. Hey, I'll go make some money. You stay here.
Did you see that? She already pulled this stunt several times.
-I'll help out. -Will you? Okay. Work hard.
Mrs. Gong. Hold on a second.
-Yes? -My daughter-in-law is with me.
She says that the policies are cheaper online.
Pardon?
I'm sorry. I'm getting a call.
I'll call you later.
I think this woman must be out of her mind.
Hello…
I was wondering if there might be any ways to find Bun-hui.
So I stayed one more day.
I'm on my way to the airport. I wanted you to keep this for me.
What's this?
It's the letter I wrote to Bun-hui as soon as I left Busan.
But it was returned to me.
If you happen to reach her, could you give her this for me?
I don't think I'll ever come back.
-Dad. -What?
-Mom. -Your mother?
-What do we do? -To the storage room!
You send her back home. You, come with me.
Come here. It's okay. Come here.
-Where are we going? -Come here.
-Why are we going inside? -Go inside.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
Well…
-What is it? -My wife is here.
Then, let me say hello to her.
No. It's better that you don't.
She'll leave soon.
But why are you so nervous?
I don't know. I have no idea.
My gosh, that awful woman.
-Ma'am. -Hey, Mom.
What? Why are you back so early?
Did Yong-pil take off already?
-Yes, he left. -Yes.
He left?
That sly jerk. That's all right. Fine.
I wanted to clean the place with or without him today.
Let's start with the storage room.
-No! -No!
You startled me. What's wrong with you?
Just because. We can clean the storage room later.
-We should do it. It's too much for you. -Right.
Mom. right. You should go see your client.
You brat. What client? I just lost my client.
Move out of my way. I'll--
-No, Mom. -Are you mad?
Why do you keep stopping me?
-What is it? What's wrong with you? -My gosh.
Want a hug or a piggyback ride?
-What's wrong with you? -Ma'am!
What's wrong? What's gotten into you, Saet-byeol?
-Mom. -Move out of my way.
-No, I… -Ma'am.
There's no need to come in here. I finished cleaning.
I thought you already left. What a surprise you're still here.
You should go home and rest up. I'll take care of the rest.
-What? -You're the best. All right.
I see. You finished cleaning in there?
If you're done in there, let's clean the windows over there.
-Let's go. -I'm all right.
What? Go and clean the windows.
Let's go and clean the windows.
-Okay. -Let's clean them.
-The windows. -You clean the windows.
What is it? Are you hiding a woman in there?
What are you trying to eat without me?
If it's something good, you're dead meat.
Let's see. What do you have here?
You're dead meat. What…
Who are you?
Hello…
I'm Choi Yong-pil's friend. My name is Hong Jang-mi.
Jang-mi?
My dear, let me explain.
Please listen.
Aren't you Gong Bun-hui?
Aren't you Bun-hui?
My gosh.
Darn it.
Did you two get married?
Why did you say you didn't know…
Did he say that he didn't know me?
-A few days ago, -Okay.
I came back to Korea from China.
When I asked him about you, he said he didn't know where you were.
I see. You got here a few days ago and met with him?
Did you meet him
at a hotel cafe?
That's right.
I heard you moved to China.
Where do you live?
Zhangjiajie…
I see. You live in Zhangjiajie.
I didn't know Jang-mi lived in Zhangjiajie.
-Bun-hui. -What?
It's been so long.
Jang-mi…
Yes?
I never
met you today.
Let's say we never met.
Honey…
Excuse me. Could you move out of my way?
Honey…
My dear.
Gosh…
Darn it. no.
What do I do? I'm in big trouble.
Gosh. Darn it!
TENTED BAR
At times like this, I should turn off my phone.
But I'm worried my clients might call.
How pathetic that I can't even turn off my phone whenever I want.
Hello?
Ma'am, it's me. It's Yeon-ju.
Hey. Why are you calling me at this hour?
I called you to let you know that the contract has been finalized.
We'll wire the money next week.
I see. You could have called Dae-hyeon.
Okay. Thank you.
Bye…
Hey, I want one more bottle of soju.
Ma'am…
Hello?
I want to drink soju with you too.
What?
I'm off work now. I'm passing through Shinseong-dong.
Just one drink, please?
You wouldn't like to drink at a place like this.
Where are you?
I'll tell you what I think after I see it for myself.
-All right. -Will Mrs. Gong be all right?
She won't answer our calls.
My dad has broken her heart so many times before.
But my dad crossed the line today, didn't he?
Saet-byeol, don't worry. She'll be home soon.
-This looks good. -Try it.
It tastes good, right?
See? I told you I cook great ramyeon.
You have my approval.
Tomorrow, I'll buy you something even more delicious.
Saet-byeol, now that I'm about to hand over my store,
it feels a little weird.
We wouldn't have met if I didn't run the store.
And without you, the store wouldn't have done so well.
So to sum it up, you and I were able to do that thanks to the convenience store.
Grapes…
My gosh, you're so childish. Strawberry!
No, don't say that! Let's just go with grapes.
-Come on inside. -You need to take your shoes off.
-Okay. -Careful.
Mrs. Gong.
This is our house, Yeon-ju.
-What… -Hey, Dae-hyeon.
I called her for something, and we ended up drinking together.
-Can you take this? -Okay.
My goodness. Come here, my son.
Dae-hyeon, you're such a kind son.
You're the best.
Mom, why did you drink so much?
I was in a good mood today, so I had a few drinks.
My son made my dream come true.
Your salary is over a hundred million won and you're an executive at a big company.
You have no idea how happy I am
Dae-hyeon, listen to me.
I don't need a husband.
And I don't need any friends.
All I need is you.
All I need is my son, okay?
-Mom, are you okay? -Why wouldn't I be okay?
Dae-hyeon, I came home in a really nice car.
Yeon-ju, gave me a ride. Hey, Yeon-ju.
Yes, I'm right here.
My goodness gracious. Yeon-ju, thank you so much.
Yeon-ju, thank you so much for drinking with me today.
No, I should be the one to thank you. You should call me often from now on.
Okay, sure.
Now, you should go and take her home.
Escort her to her house. Hurry.
Ma'am, I'll be off now.
Ma'am, it's time for me to work at the convenience store.
You should teach Mr. Choi a big lesson once he comes home.
Okay. Yeon-ju.
Yeon-ju, thank you so much.
I hope you do your best to help Dae-hyeon out.
I never got to live the life I wanted.
But I want Dae-hyeon to live differently.
That's my dream.
Okay, Yeon-ju? Please do me a favor.
Thank you. Thank you, Yeon-ju.
-Dae-hyeon. -Yes?
About yesterday…
Well…
Yeon-ju told me
that she wants to apologize, but apparently, you won't let her.
I'm sure Yeon-ju worked really hard
to make the company take over our convenience store.
She also took good care of me yesterday.
You should meet up with her
and let her apologize.
And thank her for what she did.
-Mom. -It's best to get that kind of stuff done
as fast as possible.
You should meet her today if you have time.
I have dinner plans today.
I'm totally fine. You should listen to your mother.
He promised to treat me to a nice meal to cheer me on
saying he feels a bit sad to let go of the store.
Saet-byeol…
It's okay.
Yes, do as I tell you.
You should meet her today, Dae-hyeon.
-Mr. Choi. -Hey.
-Here. -What's this?
You should give this to Mrs. Gong.
They're white tulips, and they symbolize "Forgiveness".
-Saet-byeol, thank you. -No problem.
But I don't know if the flowers will be enough.
Don't worry.
I have something even better up my sleeve.
"Something even better"? What's that?
I met Jang-mi so I could get this money.
I had no ulterior motive.
I told her I run a convenience store, and that's how she came that day.
You told me you didn't want to see her.
That's why I told her that I don't know you. That's all.
I'm serious. Please believe me.
These tulips symbolize "Forgiveness". Saet-byeol--
Get them away from me!
Why did you want to go to Zhangjiajie?
Tell me why.
Why don't you just hit me?
Hit me until you feel better.
Forget it. Take this,
go to Zhangjiajie, and get married to her.
Just leave.
Bun-hui, I deserve to die.
You…
don't even deserve a beating.
Take all this and get lost.
No, I won't leave. I'm going to live and die right here.
-Is that so? -Yes.
Then I'll leave.
Bun-hui!
-Let me go. -No, I can't.
Bun-hui…
Would you like another cup of coffee?
No, I'll be leaving soon.
-Then should I throw this away? -Yes.
Okay. Thank you.
Bun-hui…
Bun-hui, I really wanted to see you before I left.
I'm so glad I got to see you like this.
Life must be really easy for you.
You come and go whenever you want. What a life.
Back then, I had a reason.
-To be honest-- -I don't want to hear it.
You told me you wanted to see me before you left.
Well, you saw me, so leave.
Here…
Please read it.
I'll be off now.
Bun-hui, I hope you stay well.
TO GONG BUN-HUI
Eat up.
Thank you for asking me to eat dinner with you today.
No, I'm more grateful for what you did for my mother yesterday.
I'd like to sincerely apologize for how rude my mother was to you
in the past.
I've always wanted to apologize for that.
Didn't you tell me it was a misunderstanding back then?
As I talked to your mother last night,
I got to find out that she's a great person.
I don't want to avoid it by saying I didn't know anything.
Now that you're being honest about it, I'll accept your apology.
We promised to be honest to each other about everything,
but I failed to do that.
From now on,
I'd like to treat you with my utmost sincerity.
No…
I just want us to remain as good colleagues.
Dear Bun-hui,
I'm leaving for China tonight.
I'm sorry for not telling you in advance.
I'm in love with someone.
I know I shouldn't do this to my parents,
but I believe they'll forgive me in the future
once they see me happily married.
Bun-hui, I know you probably hate me for disappearing without a word.
But I trust that you'll understand.
FROM HONG JANG-MI
I hope you reply once you're no longer angry at me.
I will always be waiting.
From your everlasting friend, Jang-mi.
P.S. The photo inside the envelope
is the photo we took last time at the school picnic.
My goodness.
I can't believe I used to be so young.
Bun-hui…
I'm sorry for living such a lousy life.
Welcome…
-Saet-byeol. -Mr. Choi.
No, wait. Take a few steps back. Go on.
A bit more.
Now, let me disinfect myself.
Okay, all done. It's perfect.
I'm done disinfecting myself. I'm totally clean now.
The ex-girlfriend virus is gone. There's none of that.
Mr. Choi, you forgot one thing.
Give me your hands.
Gosh, you're a perfectionist.
-Okay. -It's best to do things perfectly.
All done.
You came really early.
I came running because I missed you.
Good job.
My dad will be here soon, so let's go home together once he arrives.
-Sir! -Dad!
Did you eat something nice with Yeon-ju? What did you eat with her?
We had meat.
You bought her beef, right?
Yeon-ju is very classy, so you should buy her beef.
-From now on, keep that in mind. -Gosh, forget it.
Dae-hyeon, I noticed yesterday
that Yeon-ju is very considerate and warm-hearted.
I did what you asked. I accepted her apology and thanked her.
So that's enough.
It seems like Yeon-ju thinks of you very differently now.
She's not like how she used to be.
Mom, please stop.
What?
I'll go upstairs.
Mom, will you stop talking to me about Yeon-ju?
Why?
Why can't I talk about her?
What do you mean? I broke up with her. It's over.
And did you already forget about what happened in the past?
How could I forget?
How could I ever forget that?
How could I forget the incident that helped me become the insurance queen?
Why would you remember it like that?
Then how do you want me to remember it?
Do you think she was the first person to treat me like that?
That could sometimes lead to good relationships.
That's life.
What do you want? Should I get back with her?
Is that what you want?
Yes. If that happens, I'd ask for nothing more.
I'll even dance to celebrate.
What's the matter with you?
Do you think I'm doing this for myself?
I'm doing this for you.
I'm not telling you to get back with her for no reason.
I could tell that she really wants to get back with you yesterday.
I don't think you'll get dragged around like you did before.
And I feel like her family will treat you with more respect.
Gosh, if you like her that much,
why don't you go live with her instead?
Dad, I'll be off now.
Aren't you going to eat?
No, I'm not that hungry.
-At least have some soup, -No, it's okay.
I'll be off now.
-See you. -Bye.
-Ma'am, have some breakfast. -I told you to get lost.
I'm not kidding. Close the door.
My gosh, what's with the mood?
GRAB THE OPPORTUNITY. FROM STORE MANAGER BAE GEUN-SIK
-Let's put it here. -Okay.
Why would you bring this outside?
What's this doing in the storage?
Mr. Choi left it there for me.
I'm the manager now.
By the way, I checked the POS machine.
And I noticed that you guys ran the place like a pop-up store.
I want you to forget everything you learned.
-What? -New wine belongs in a new bottle.
I used to serve in the special forces unit.
Say hello. She's Kyung-hui, an expert in this business.
-Hi, I'm Jung Saet-byeol. -I'm Park Kyung-hui.
CRISPY CHICKEN FRIED WITH FRESH OIL
You're a lot younger than expected. What year did you enter college?
You're like a rude customer.
What?
You obviously know I didn't go to college.
I didn't even graduate high school.
Kyung-hui worked out for a long time. You did Muay Thai and what else?
Kendo. Second-degree black belt.
I see.
I hope we get along.
I advise you to use this strength for work.
We have tons of stuff to do.
She's not an easy one.
This is interesting.
But the way things are displayed here is a complete mess.
-So what's your point? -What do you think?
I want you to redisplay them.
-Sir, we'll return to the head office. -Bye.
-Good work, today. -Good work.
Have a good day.
Store Manager.
-Yes? -What's our new item?
-We have something amazing in the fridge. -Really? Let's go and check. Come on.
Mr. Choi, it's time for me to get off work.
Okay, Saet-byeol. You did great.
I'm home.
Mrs. Gong.
I'm home.
Hey…
Did you eat?
My goodness.
I don't have an appetite.
I'm not hungry at all.
Saet-byeol…
What did I do so wrong?
Dae-hyeon has never yelled at me like that before.
Saet-byeol, listen.
Do you know
what it is that scares me the most?
It's the possibility that my child might end up
living a difficult and poor life just like me.
That scares me the most.
That's why I said all those stuff.
I still can't believe he yelled at me like that.
I mean, it's not like
I have a rich husband.
And…
And it's not like I have a lot of money saved up.
The only person I can rely on
is my son, Dae-hyeon.
Ma'am, don't worry too much.
I'm sure he's regretting it right now.
Saet-byeol, are you sure this sausage stew will do?
Why didn't you pick something better? I wanted to buy you something delicious.
What are you talking about? I love sausage stew.
It looks so delicious.
-My gosh, you… I can't believe this. -What's wrong?
You just… Gosh, you really know how to eat your sausage stew.
-What? -I'm talking about the ramyeon noodles.
Ramyeon noodles are a must when you eat sausage stew.
Who doesn't add ramyeon noodles?
-Some people don't. -Are you serious?
Yes. It gives me the chills.
-That's a big mistake. -I know, right?
It's like cooking kimchi stew without kimchi.
It's like doenjang stew without doenjang.
And gochujang stew without gochujang.
Yes, exactly. It's like sundae soup with no sundae.
How was work today?
It's still the same store, so it was pretty much the same.
I'm relieved to hear that.
Saet-byeol, the ramyeon noodles. are starting to cook,
and it's kind of getting me excited. What do you think I should do?
-It's time to take them out. -Exactly.
-Mr. Choi. -Yes?
You should apologize to your mother.
You shouldn't have yelled at her like that yesterday.
Saet-byeol, I always listen to my mother.
But last night was different.
Don't be like that. You're usually not like this.
Saet-byeol, about what my mom said yesterday…
Don't take it to heart, okay?
Let's eat.
Mr. Choi, I don't want you to change.
I want you to remain a kind son.
And I want you to continue to do your best with work.
If you were your normal self, you wouldn't have fought with your mom.
You would've just said "Okay, Mom" and ended the conversation.
Eat up, Saet-byeol.
If it weren't for me…
If I just wasn't around…
Because that's the kind of person you normally are.
Hurry up and eat. I might finish everything.
I will never be able to find a room that's as cozy and warm
as this one.
You're such a great person.
Mr. Choi, when you told me that you like me,
I felt happy and anxious at the same time
because deep down inside, I knew that things might end this way.
Although it didn't last long, I will never forget
how happy you made me feel.
Thank you, Mr. Choi.
