Episode 7
Eun Bi!
Eun Bi...
Eun Bi!
Yes?
Mom, did you call me?
Where did your Unni go?
She left early this morning to learn piano, but they said she didn't show up in class today.
I hope she is not in any trouble.
Stop worrying. Unni went to a good place.
Where is that good place?
Tell me right now!
The thing is...
She went to an art competition.
It is a big art competition in Seoul.
A winner will be awarded with grant money and a full ride scholarship to a college.
Seoul?
Are you telling me Min Jung went to Seoul all alone?
I also applied, but I was eliminated. However, Uhn-nee passed, so she went to Seoul.
Rotten wench.
What are you? Why would you tell me that now?
What?
Unni told me not to tell you, so...
My child.
My child...
Mom... Mom!
My child! Where did she go? -Mom!
She may be angry now, but when Unni wins the grand prize,
Mom will be the happiest.
I am not Eun Bi.
I'm sorry.
We mistook you for somebody else. Go ahead and draw.
Okay.
Look.
The colors of the tree, fence top and the garment...
When the colors come down on the dyed garments, doesn't it look just like a rainbow?
Yes.
This time, should I make a strong gust of wind?
How?
When you draw a curve to the kite's tail, that means that it's a windy day.
You don't need to submit a separate application form for the drawing contest.
I've already submitted your application with mine.
Really?!
Thank you, Unni.
There's no guaranteed that all the submitted applicants will be accepted.
Don't expect too much.
What is your name?
Min Jung. Yeon Min Jung.
Where did you come from?
From the Jeonlla Province of Jangheung.
Can I see your artwork?
Yes.
This makes no sense.
Why is this drawing so similar to what Eun Bi drew before?
But it's not Eun Bi.
Why did you draw this?
Just.
It was like a rainbow, and it was pretty.
I always want to continue to draw. It's like a rainbow.
Rainbow?
Why did you draw the kite when there's no kite in the front yard?
That too... just because of the wind.
If the kite was in the front yard, then it'd look very flattering.
This dye front yard is fake! There's got to be a 'makeshift' dye front in order for it to really be our front yard.
She grew up by watching all that.
She'd never miss a drawing contest and enter, but why?...
This artwork is definitely
Eun Bi's artwork. If it's not Eun Bi, no one can draw the dyed yard like this.
The garment's single colors and the way it was painted is all the same!
I'm definitely sure that they are interested in my artwork.
If I win first place here, I can get a scholarship
and go to school in Seoul again.
Choose me as first place.
Please.
Wait a minute.
I don't even know when she's coming, but what's the point in waiting for her here.
I think I'm going to go crazy.
Oh my!
Oh, I dropped something here.
How did those jerks know that I was here?! What am I going to do?!
Why are you like this?
Oh right now, I'm a little busy...
Please, please help me!
Oh... right now, I'm in no position!
Let me go. Let me go!
What is this?
Isn't this blood?
Hello, What's wrong with you?!
Please stand up.
Stand up.
Can you walk?
Is there anything else you need?
Welcome.
What is this? Isn't that the kid from last time?
Ahjussi, What would you guys like, rice soup?
Forget about the food. Where is the owner?
My mother's name is Do Hye Ok. Why are you looking for her?
Tell that rude broad to come out promptly!
What did you say right now?
Even a cold cup of a water has a rank(a time and place).
You can't do that in a country like this! Aren't you even scared of the Mudeungsan tiger?
Hurry and call your mother here! What are you doing?!
What the!
What are you doing?!
No! You can't do this!
No! You can't do this! No!
Stop!
No!
She must have not come.
She's not here.
Who?
That kid named Eun Bi?
Yeah.
Do you miss her that much?
Jae Hee, you've never flown a kite before, right?
I'll fly this kite for you.
Hold onto that and just run over there.
You got it?
1...2...3!
Hyung, it's flying. My kite is really flying!
I miss you.
I am thankful for today.
Oh my, what...thanks? We, who are both poor and in dire need for things, will help one another!
But...
The baby couldn't even properly grow in your stomach.
Maybe, you weren't destined to have that child. Therefore please just forget about it!
When is the child's father coming?
He's not here.
Without a husband, what are you going to do?
Then,
do you make a living by hand sewing hanboks?
Will you be alright by yourself?
This is... the same as giving birth, so you have to eat nutritious food.
It's alright.
Please go ahead.
Then...
Honey!
What am I supposed to do?!
You should've just taken me with you as well!
Her situation is very similar to mine!
Wow, I feel very sorry for her!
We have to go a long way so eat lots slowly.
Wow!
It looks so delicious!
I will eat well!
But, did you come by yourself?
I... don't have a mother. I am an orphan.
An orphan?
Yes.
I lived with my dad...
but he passed away a few years ago.
Then who are you living with right now?
I'm living with an Ahjumma (lady) that runs a bar, and I'm helping her with it.
A bar?! That is a nonsense!
But who got first place today?
It's not me is it?
You are first place.
Really?
Then can I study in Seoul and go to college in Seoul as well?
First, I have to talk to the person that has taken care of you up to this point.
If she gives permission, then you'll be able to attend a fine arts school in Seoul.
A fine arts school?
There's nothing to say.
Every day, that Ahjumma tells me that...
I'm such a pig!
That the food is wasted on me.
She tells me not to even come home.
What in the world?
She must be a vicious person.
To make a young girl work that hard, but treat her so poorly afterwards!
Don't lose courage and study hard.
You have to become successful.
If you'd like,
we'll sponsor you until the end.
This is a vest I made while thinking about my grandchild, so wear it.
If it's a vest you made while thinking about your granddaughter, why are you giving it to me?
Because I am not able to give it to her now.
Is her granddaughter dead?
Does she resemble me or something?
If I can take her granddaughter's place...
It is so pretty! This is the first time I've seen such pretty clothes!
From now on, I will make clothes for you frequently.
So tell me if there are any clothes you want to wear.
No. It's okay. I am satisfied with just this one.
I had a good meal
and received such pretty clothes, I would think this is the best day of my life!
Soo Bong, as you've promised her, please help her with any type of the studying.
Therefore, our Eun Bi will also meet someone who is decent and will be living while being helped by that person.
Yeah, Mother. Min Jung.
This is my contact information. Feel free to contact me anytime.
A Korean college professor?
Let's go. I'll give you a ride.
You don't have to do that.
Thank you.
I will be able to see you again, right?
In the near future, I'll go down to Jangheung.
Raise your arms up high!
Hey Ahjumma.
You take our money and run a business in comfort?
Did your liver swell up?! (Are you insane?)
I've done wrong. I deserve to die.
Oh my, it's because I'm very ghetto! So I'm under a lot of stress!
I must have lost my mind!
Aigoo... aish.
Where did you find this mischievous girl and try to out-smart us?!
From now on, we will take the money you earn.
Dig your burial plot in advance, then do other (sneaky things) behind our backs!
What other things?!
I am so thankful to you for sparing my life!
I have no desire for anything, so please take it all!
Of course, you should. But if that'll not satisfy you to the full extent,
then just curse this and that at me!
You've really got a smart mouth!
Hey Ahjumma, When you make any steps, remember to always contact us first.
Yes.
-Let's go. - Yes.
Oh, my heart.
Oh, my legs!
It's all my fault.
I should've not opened my big mouth by telling them your name!
You, destructible wench!
You're really useless in every way.
Why should I continue to live? I should just kill myself by sticking my head in a sewer.
Oh no mother! I will do better from now on! I will work harder in the restaurant!
I will only eat a little! And listen to Unni well!
I won't make things difficult for you.
Even if I make money, it'll all disappear to their pockets.
I won't be able to pay for Min Jung's tutoring. What to do?
Did you hear anything from your sister?
She said that she'll come right back after she finishes the contest.
Should I go look for her at the bus stop?
The store looks crappy right now, so how can you go out?
Min Jung will be shocked. I'll clean the place up.
Oh alright! I will clean the place by myself.
You sit here and rest.
Why are you making this docile baby cry? She doesn't even whine and sleeps very well.
Anyhow, our Ga Eul has a perfect connection with you!
So from now on, please look after her.
Our Ga Eul is a big piece of luck!
Ever since her birth, I feel some big event is going to happen!
What happened? Is there something good happening at the company?
The new premium line that just came out looks like it will be a big hit.
Even if we double our employees and work full time, we won't even be able to meet the initial demand.
Oh my goodness! That's great honey!
Everything has been going our way ever since Bok Dong's birth.
The credit for this business project
goes entirely to Jaw Hwa's uncle. - What?
100%, done by himself.
Poor person... not even able to share in on the good times
Shouldn't Jae Hwa's aunt get a piece of the riches?
Of course.
Shi Bong will definitely get half of the profit this time.
Who needs money after death?
His wife was kicked out, and there were no kids.
What? Of course there is an existing bloodline in the form of Jae Hwa.
Of course Jae Hwa must have it. Isn't that right?
I'm sure the Sister-in-law will decide that when she comes back.
That is ludicrous. All the good fortune was brought in by Bok Dong, but Jae Hwa gets to collect it?
The truth is...
My mother passing away...
is my fault...
If only Mom didn't go buy the eggs,
she wouldn't have gotten into that car accident.
Aren't you going to feed Ga Eul?
Ah! Ah...
I was going to do it now.
But honey, what I'm saying is...
In order to learn and take over your business in the future,
one needs determination and great insights.
The kid doesn't have confidence after what happened.
What do you mean what happened?
Oh you know... what happened.
About Jae Hwa's mom passing away because of Jae Hwa.
What?!
What kind of nonsense are you talking about?!
Honey! Be quiet! Jae Hwa will be upset if he hears this.
Honey, you really didn't know?
Why Jae Hwa's mother died?
Can you just cut to the chase?
So the day Jae Hwa's mother died, Jae Hwa wanted to eat eggs,
and he threw a tantrum. She went to the supermarket to buy the eggs and got into the accident.
I thought you definitely knew.
Maybe I shouldn't have told you.
Is that true?
Would I lie after all that?
On top of that, because his uncle died and even his aunt went missing,
the child must think he is a bad luck child.
Honey! Because of that, you can't hate Jae Hwa or anything okay?!
His luck ran out, so what can you do?
Dad?! What is it?!
What do you mean what?
I came to scrub your back.
Sit up straight. When a person lives their life,
they will have people they feel sorry towards and people they feel thankful towards.
What about you? Do you have those kind of people?
A person I'm thankful for...
Is someone who smiles for me when I'm sad.
A person I'm sorry towards...
Is it your mother?
Is that why you can't eat eggs?
Dad.
Why are you sorry for your mother's death?
That was an accident. Don't feel guilty about something like that.
But still... but still...
If you think that way, how sorry would your mother be?
After your mom gave birth to you, do you know how energetic she got?
For the first time, I personally made seaweed soup for her.
Stop thinking about that and live confidently.
For a youth, why are you so slouchy? Straighten your lower back!
Oh boy, you've already grown into a youth.
Aigoo...
But... where's the emblem that was received by the Jeonju elder?
Well, I forgot about that because it's been hectic around here.
Do you think she might have give it to the Chinsoowon elder?
Why would she give it to her when they're not on good terms?
Oh by the way, did you know that the Jeonju elder has passed away?
She passed away? When?
I think she cut off contact due to all the bad stuff that was happening to our family at the time.
That was the last piece of his work.
The last one?
And Sister-in-law took it?
What I told you is a secret okay?
I keep secrets.
Why are you coming in my room without asking?!
After you take a bath, you said we should do homework together.
You tattle tale.
- Ah... ah... ah... ah. - Are you in your right mind?
How much do I have to hit you till you listen?!
Why are you hitting me?!
Why do you act like you don't know.
Those gangsters were everywhere in the market,
and you're not home! How would I feel?
You really think you have time to go to that art competition?
You... today...
Look, I want a new life.
What do you mean, a new life?
How are you going to take care of me?
Because you got caught by the gangsters, you have to repay all the debt.
That means goodbye to art and piano lessons.
Don't you worry.
I will do whatever necessary to get you lessons and clothes.
How are you going to support me by selling soups and alcohol?
Will you even be able to send me to Seoul University?
Can you send me to study abroad in America if I wanted to?!
What?!
It's my life! You have no right to tell me what to do and what not to do.
Those gangsters will probably show up at school too.
Where are you going to run away to now?
Should we dig the ground and hide? Or hide behind the mountains?
From today on, I'm not your daughter.
I'm an orphan. Got it?
This wench!
There isn't anything you can't say. What?!
Orphan?! This wench!
You deserve to get beaten.
Mom, please stop.
Just hit me instead.
Unni just came back from a far away place. She is probably tired.
Listen to what I have to say.
Today, I won first place in the drawing competition.
so they said they would be able to send me to a good university.
Now I can study without worrying about money.
Isn't that good for you?
Why would anyone support anyone that isn't related to them? It's a lie, isn't it?
No. They're all good people.
I ate food there, and the grandmother gave me a gift as well.
Look at this.
It's super pretty.
Then, did you fall for this lousy piece of clothing?
What if they try to sell you or something?
Even if I was sent somewhere, it would be better than living here.
Mom, you said you would do anything for me, right?
Then, act like you're not my mom. It's a a favor.
Min Jung...
Unni, what are you saying?
How is your mother not your mother?
You too, from now on don't say I'm your sister.
Because of someone that has nothing to do with me, I can't ruin my life.
Don't you think?
Unni...
Mom, are you okay?
Should I get you some porridge to eat?
Mother-in-law.
You idiot. How long will you live this way?
Mother. You want Eun Bi to live like you?
How can a mother so weak, find her child?
Starting tomorrow, I'll be running the Heritage Cultural Center again.
So you take over Bi Sul Chae now!
What do you mean?
I have recommended you for
The decision will be reached soon.
The busier you are, the faster time will pass.
Maybe Eun Bi would come back too. - Mother-in-law.
Do you really mean that?
That you're going to bequeath Chimsunjang?
-Honey. -Why are you studying Soo Bong's face?
Eun bi is lost right now.
There is no way he will want you to go to the states with him.
There is no one left here then.
Do as mother-in-law says.
It is something I wanted all my life...
Why am I not happy at all?
I don't want it if I have to lose my child over it.
Why are you supporting this now? Why?
Why didn't you help me when Eun Bi was here.
Why did you hurt her and make her cry?
It's not his fault.
All of those useless actions on my part...
It is my fault.
But, my Eun Bi,
I will definitely find you.
This place, I will pass it along to you.
Please be well until then.
I will make it the greatest place for you to inherit.
Mom,
will never cry from now on.
I have no right to cry.
I have no right to die.
Today we will be making a skirt.
In the beginning, toddlers cannot potty properly, sitting or standing,
so both sexes wore this skirt.
A certain sewing technique will be used to make this garment.
I want all of you to gather in front of me and watch the sewing.
What is this?
Someone left it outside.
Whoa!
Soo Dal, was this your doing?
What would you do if it hit me in the eye?!
Trash?
He threw it away?!
This was in Jae Hwa's room before.
It works fine, why would you throw it away?
I got tired of it.
You always get so bored easily.
It was only yesterday when you treasured it.
Mom, I want to eat eggs.
You said you have egg allergies. - It's all better now.
So make me some eggs to eat.
Egg roll, fried eggs, boiled eggs and egg soup. I want to eat them all.
Dad. This is the week to go to your company to visit, right?
I want to quickly look at the premium line that you said was a big hit.
Dad, he doesn't really care for the visits to the company, but I think it's really fun.
I'll even write a report after the visit.
You must take me with you.
You remember that Jae Hee spilled juice on the fabrics, right?
I think it's better if Jae Hee goes later... once he matures a bit!
I spilled it because he hit my arm while fooling around.
I'm sure all the employees know since they saw it. That I was the only one wrongly scolded!
Okay, okay.
A competition between siblings is a good thing.
Lee Jae Hwa, Lee Jae Hee, you listen well. I just need one good candidate for everything!
I'll go down to Jamong soon. [Korea University -Professor Jang Soo Bong- ]
I came because I thought this would happen.
If you don't eat after giving birth, you're going to ruin your health.
Please have some seaweed soup.
You don't have to do this.
Since I have a hard life too, I'm not a person who treats anybody well.
Even if I wanted to do well, I don't have anything to give.
But how could I ignore someone who's in a tough situation after watching them?
Eat and gain some strength.
Didn't they say that the tears drop down, and the spoon goes up?
I don't know what to hold on to while living.
There aren't too many people who lives because they enjoy life.
Since you were born, since your mother gave birth to you,
you just live on.
Don't you think a day will come when you'll laugh if you live on?
Even if that day doesn't come, then you can laugh out of how ridiculous it is!
If there is one person who likes me, that's why you live. Is there anymore to life?
Isn't this Min Jung's drawing?
She keeps reminding me of Eun Bi...
It troubles me that she's an orphan too.
You think that too?
She's been on my mind as well.
What if our Eun Bi is having a hard life somewhere like Min Jung is?
Honey, go down to meet that child, okay?
Here it is.
She doesn't have parents but is living with with a "mom" running a soup and rice restaurant.
She's very good in school. She's a very intelligent child.
We want to sponsor her because she has exceptional drawing skills.
Oh really?
She's probably still in her classroom. Lets go take a look.
Hey Yeon Min Jung! It's your turn to clean the bathroom!
If you run away again, I'm going to tell the teacher so do as you wish!
So annoying! Why should I clean the bathroom?
Unni! Is school over?
I told you to go ahead first! Why are you coming here all the time?!
I have to clean the bathroom.
But, why does my hand hurt so much?
Is that so?
You shouldn't use the hand you draw with if it hurts.
Then you stay and read books.
I will go clean the bathroom really quick, so you wait here!
Min Jung, a guest from Seoul has come to visit you.
Teacher!
No, no you can't.
If that woman finds out, she's not going to send me off on good terms.
But she took care of you until now. You should bid her farewell.
I'll speak to her myself and go, so don't worry and go ahead first.
I can come find you easily.
Even so, it's a matter of changing where you live. How could we leave all that with you?
Teacher...
I really want to go to Seoul to study art and go to college there.
But if the Ajumma says no, I won't be able to do those things.
Please help me. Will you?
Alright. Since you are an intelligent kid,
I will wait as you say.
Thank you! Please go on ahead.
See you in Seoul.
Goodbye!
Unni! Why are you all the way over there?!
I finished cleaning the bathroom!
So wait there okay?!
Honey. Wait a moment.
What's wrong?
Never mind. Lets go.
Wow! Your skills are amazing.
I'm shamelessly taking it because you keep giving it to me...
It's nothing compared to what you helped me with. If you need anything else let me know.
What did I do that you keep giving things to me everyday. I'm not an evil person like that.
I know. I will get going. I have a lot of work to do.
Okay. Good bye.
Mom! I came home from school!
She must have brought you a quilted table cover. It's really pretty.
Min Jung, why did you come to the restaurant?
I can't even send you to an academy. I feel so bad that I can't even lift my head.
It's okay if I don't get tutoring. Don't worry about it.
Isn't there anything I can help you with?
Do you want me to prep the vegetable?
Aigoo, leave it. You'll get your hands all dirty.
There's no work here so go on and study, or take a nap.
Bo Ri... you peel the garlic.
Okay, I got it. Unnie, she's telling you to go home.
She would throw a fit saying I'm not her mom,
yet today she says she wants to help out.
Yes, what's more to life? Even if I have no money, this is happiness.
Oh my, seeing you smiling makes me feel like I'm full even without eating.
Hey child. If it's too spicy to peel, put it aside and just sweep the floor. I'll peel them at night.
No, it's okay. It's better for me to cry than to make my mother cry.
Aigoo, what do you mean better? Your eyes are getting puffy!
Aigoo, leave it.
-I'll do it! -Leave it. Just sweep the floor well.
We searched all over the mountain area, but we couldn't find the body.
Because the current was so rough, the body could've been swept...
How dare you say, "body?"
If you didn't see it yourself, shut your mouth! My sister-in-law would never do that kind of a thing.
I'm sorry, President.
Don't give up and keep looking.
For sure, she is alive somewhere.
Could it...
It couldn't be.
Oh my leg. Oh my back.
Please take care of my mother.
I'll give you the rabbit as a gift.
Mom, I'm not doing this
to live well on my own.
I will definitely become rich.
I'll buy you a house.
I promise you.
Until then, just think that I am dead.
Oh my, oh my. What was she thinking?
What kind of nonsense is this?
The thing I lied about...
That grandma...
It all ended...
So...
Mom.
Wait until...
I contact you.
Oh my, what a vicious wench. What a tenacious wench.
She's really gone mad.
Bo Ri, what time does a train to Seoul leave?
Unni told us to wait. What are you going to do by going there?
Then what kind of a mom in this world would just listen to a kid and give their child away?
Wait... their business card must be somewhere.
Look for it. Hurry and try to find it.
Where, where could it be?
Korea University Professor Jang Soo Bong
Korea University,
Professor Jang Soo Bong?
It's very pretty.
It's good that you like it.
This is the first time I've been to a department store in my whole life.
You even bought me such expensive clothes. Thank you!
But, did teacher not come?
He has a lecture today, so we decided to see him at the school.
I'll take this outfit.
These are the clothes you wore when you came here.
Please just throw it away.
I am not going to wear it from now on.
What is all this? Who did this?! Lee Jae Hee, it was you wasn't it?!
I did it. What are you going to do about it?
Why are you being so mean to Jae Hee lately?
You won't go to the company with him, nor eat with him, or even play soccer with him.
Why exactly are you doing this?
Because.
I hate him.
It's not like we're going to live together for only few months and part our ways.
I must have a talk with you today.
I am your father's wife.
Jae Hee is not my only child. I have Ga Eul now as well.
So what?
If you don't have the ability to kick me out of this house, then live here, very low to the ground!
Why do I have to?
Then I don't have any reason to be concerned with your situation, right?
You did a good job hiding this (vest) in your secret box!
Give that to me.
What are you gonna do? Should I burn this.
Or should I cry looking at your mother's belonging, then give it to your dad?
Please give it to me.
That's all that I have.
Then listen to me.
From today on call me mom.
And stop treating Jae Hee like that.
Otherwise I'm going to burn this right now!
Think things through carefully, if you and I have to live,
what you have to do from now on.
May I ask you something?
Where do I have to go to meet this person?
You can find him on the fourth floor of this building.
So I can enter through that way? Thank you.
You've explained yourself well to the person that raised you, right?
Yes.
She told me to study hard and happily sent me off.
Let's hurry up and go. So you can introduce yourself to grandma and check out your dormitory.
Well...you know the person that raised me? She said,
"There's no one in this world, that'd sponsor a stranger's child for free!"
As if I'm getting tricked into something, it made her worry a lot.
She probably would be very worried.
As soon as you unpack and organize your personal items, then make sure to call her often.
She asked me multiple times if I will actually be sent to college.
If you want, we can even send you to study abroad.
It's up to you how far you want to go with studying(advanced degrees), so we'll do our best to help you as much as you want.
Therefore don't worry about anything!
Thank you.
Grandmother must be waiting.
Let's hurry and go.
Mom, you heard.
Don't worry about me and leave.
Just think that a child like me does not even exist anymore.
I'm sorry.
Oh my!
Min Jung, Min Jung. Min Jung.
Min Jung, Min Jung.
Yes, my child... It's good to see you smile like that.
Eat your food.
Don't feel intimidated.
From now on, I won't lock the door,
so if you feel wronged, then come back to your mommy.
Mom
will always
wait for you for the rest of my life and live.
My life time,
that's how I'll use it.
Mom,
you didn't leave me here by myself, right?
You'll definitely come back, right?
♫Goong jjahk, goong jjhak, goong jjha jjha, goong jjhak.♫
♫ In a four beat song, ♫

15 years later
♫There's a love, farewell and some tears. ♫
We ate well.
Come again!
Here... Bo Ri, take off.
I'll go and come back.
It's hot! so be careful. Also, don't spill the liquid.
Please move aside quickly! because I'm making a market rice soup delivery!
Ahjumma(lady), our rice soup?!
Ahjumma and Ahjussi, here is the hot rice soup!
Eat it quickly before it gets cold.
Bo Ri, why are you always in a good mood?
There are no reasons to be in a bad mood!
You only live once, so you don't need to complain all the time! Isn't that right, Ahjussi?!
-Right?! -Yes, indeed!
Eat well.
I may not be able to come get the dishes later so just leave it to the side.
-Where are you going? -I'm going to a good place.
Then, I will be going now.
Goodbye.
Customer, how do you like this?
Do you have this as a set?
This outfit might be a bit too much (flashy) to wear as everyday attire.
How is this? It's exactly my style.
I'll try this on.
You must have an extravagant career?
I'm a prosecutor.
What?
I work as a prosecutor.
Could you give me the pants as well?
Ok.
Did you buy a suit?
Of course. Here.
You only bought a pair? You may be stuck here for a few years...
Nonetheless, you should've bought several pairs.
I already knew this... is how you'd react, so I bought everything from the store and had it delivered to Jangheung.
I only brought one pair that I'm going to wear tomorrow.
What? You rummaged the whole suit store?!
Thank you, Mom.
To go with the suit, I also bought the dress shirts, shoes, neck ties, etc. etc.
I probably used up this whole card.
I will be a bit late today.
You rascal! This card has a high limit!
That's fine... to get rid of a tumor, $10,000 is nothing!
If Jae Hwa leaves and Ga Eul comes home tomorrow,
it will be my world!
My world, my...my world!
Jangheung Rice Soup House.
What are you still doing, Mom?
We're going to Seoul tomorrow, so why would we close already?
Your daughter is receiving her college diploma, so you have to get scrubbed and dolled up at the bath house.
I went to the bath house last month.
Seoul people wash themselves everyday!
What if Unni gets mad that you smell bad?
Is that so?
Then you need to wash up too!
It'll just waste money if I wash up also.
I can just take a warm bath at home tonight. So hurry up and get going!
We'll go to bed early tonight, and tomorrow, we'll have to stop by the hair salon. So we're really busy.
I understand.
But... can I sell the rest of the rice soup, then go?
Hey, are you going to make it to the bath house before the sunset? It's going to close!
I understand.
Here and go. - Fine, I'll get going.
What about you? What are you going to do after you close the shop?
I'm going to do something.
Go.
Teacher, Bo Ri is here.
You have come early.
If I want to clothe my mom in a hanbok, even staying all night wouldn't be enough!
If your mother knows you are making a hanbok for her, she must really be happy.
Oh, to my mom, I'm a rotten wench either way!
Oh by the way, I brought a bowl of rice soup, so heat it up and eat it later on tonight.
Oh alright. Thank you.
Here Bo Ri,
all you need to do is to sew lapels, a breast tie, and an ornament. Then you're done!
Oh my it's really...
I can't believe that I made this!
Oh... did you finish my sister's?
What do you think, Bo Ri's unnie has to like it though.
Oh my world! there's no finer garment than this, not even for a fairy!
This will even satisfy my picky sister!
Of course, your skills are the best!
You have a lot of talent as well, Bo Ri. Since you started in high school,
you started before I did.
There's no student that can be more exceptional than their teacher!
Anyhow, you have to teach me all your trade secrets?!
Then, I'll make you the rice soup for the rest of your life!
Here. Try it.
Yes.
Yun Min Jung.
Yes?
I see you do not have parents.
Yeah!
But, compared to those with parents, I can confidently say that I didn't live an inferior life.
Well your grades are good...
But you've never been out to study abroad?
If you're in fashion, you should have at least gone to Japan or Europe...
No I haven't but...
That's enough.
The clothes you are wearing right now,
what brand is it from?
It doesn't seem like it's made by a Korean designer.
It is from a Korean designer.
I made this by myself.
Is that right?
Let's go to the next one.
You came? What about the interview? Did you do well?
I don't know. I definitely failed.
Leaving aside all those with pulls and specs, why would they pick me?
What kind of self punishment is that?
Who has great grades and is as pretty as you are?
They knew you were smart and didn't pick you, so it's a loss for them.
Relax and lay down for a bit. I'll fix dinner.
I am not eating. I don't have an appetite.
Anyway, why isn't your family bringing us the side dishes anymore?
The housemaid's kimchee was great last time.
Oh, is that right?
Next time I go, I'll tell her.
Once I graduate, my sponsorship will be over too.
What if I can't get a job?
What are you worrying about? I'll take care of you.
Take care of me with what? Are you going to beg your family again?
That's the problem with the prince from a rich family.
By chance,
if I was pregnant, would your family allow our marriage?
Why?
Are you anxious we won't be able to get married?
You can't trust me?
What parent in the world would want an orphan?
If I were the genuine daughter, it would be easier to get permission.
When will you let me meet your parents?
Soon.
First, pass the exam already.
This apartment is too small. We'll have to move.
At first I thought I wanted to have a newly wed life in a place like this, but
now I don't like it. It's stuffy.
If it's stuffy, do you want to go for a walk for a bit?
Never mind. Don't mind me and go study!
Don't even think about coming to the graduation ceremony tomorrow.
Save your time and study, and just keep studying.
That is for me. Okay?
Yes, madame.
Oh what the heck? Didn't you hear me telling you to go study?
Why won't you even let me give you a hug these days?
Are you being mean or what?
What is this? I'm going to go out then?
Let me go!
You...
Unnie.
You're graduating tomorrow, right?
That's why I called you.
Don't think about coming. I'm not going to the graduation ceremony.
Why not? It's a graduation from a great university!
I can't talk for long. I'm hanging up now.
Wait a minute Unnie. I'll let Mom...
Unnie!
Eh, she has such a quick temper.
We were really looking forward to it, and she's not even going to her graduation?
She probably just said that because she thinks it would be too hard for us to come.
Mom!
Mommy, my mommy smells good.
Aigoo, this wench...
Aigoo...
I thought you were a dummy, but you even know how to make traditional clothes.
How is it. Is it okay?
It looks nice. You look like a rich lady from Seoul.
The rich ladies must have all frozen to death last night.
Min Jung would like it, right?
I wonder if she will recognize you.
Oh right, this is for Unnie.
I asked the beauty salon owner in town, and I heard they wear traditional clothes on graduation nowadays.
Oh yeah.
You or I, we never went to a university. How would we know?
If you didn't find out, we would have been a laughing stock.
So you're saying you made a hanbok for Min Jung too?
How would that work?
For the sensitive unni, the teacher made it herself with her great skill.
For you, I made it with just a little less skill.
Is it pretty?
Wow!
Min Jung is going to be a star at her graduation.
Oh my, we're going to miss the train looking at the clothes. Let's go already.
One moment, let's go together, mom!
Close the door.
Jae Hee?
He left for work early in the morning.
When will you give Jae Hee a job at the company?
You keep making him do this and that, but he can't make a business card.
If he doesn't like it, tell him to get a job elsewhere.
I don't need him. There are plenty of talents available.
No, I don't mean he doesn't like it.
I'm saying my Jae Hee is a rare talent.
It's not like every household has someone with top grad from Korea University MBA.
Is there a rule that says Jae Hwa with a law degree from Korea University can't get into management ?
What are you talking about?
Why would a prosecutor work in a small company breathing dirty air?
You are a hundred percent correct, Mother.
I like being a prosecutor. It fits my aptitude perfectly.
What's up with your clothes?
Lee Jae Hwa!
Are you in your right mind or what?
What kind of clothes are those? Are you going dancing or something?
Yeah, Jae Hwa. Isn't this a little too overboard?
Are you Gigolo Lee or Prosecutor Lee?
This is the new suit Mother bought for being appointed for Jangheung city court.
I didn't buy it. I just gave him my credit card...
That no-good... why are you pulling me down with you if you're drowning?
Is the color of the clothes important? It's the person that is important. The prosecutor surely can also be fashionable.
I'm warning you.
If you don't change your playboy ways, I'll cut your hair and lock you up in the house whether you're a prosecutor or not.
I will make you relocate from Jangheung, back to Seoul. Do you understand?!
If that's the case, then...
Mom would have a nervous breakdown.
She may have a heart attack.
I'm going to be late.
I have bosses to greet before I leave, so I'll see you later at the restaurant. Mother! Father!
Who are you going to greet like that?
Won't you change right this minute?! - Yes! Hey, hey, kid!
Oh my head.
I'm dizzy. Why would there be so many people from so early in the morning?
Mom, many of the Seoul people look as though they're all mad.
Why...isn't anyone running late?
We can't get lost here, so make sure not to let go of my hand.
Aigoo you make sure you don't let it go. At least I have lived in Seoul for a long time.
When?
When I was little?
Oh when you were little.
Look at this. What is this? What are we going to do?
Mom, are you okay?
My world, traditional clothes of an elder. What degenerate...
Look here Ajusshi! See me for a moment.
What? What!? I have something to tell you.
Get out of the car!
What is this? I'm busy...
I'm out. What do you want?
Just now, you...
Do you not see what you did to my mom?
What are you gonna do?
Darn.
What do you mean what am I going to do?
She should have watched out for herself. Didn't you know there was a puddle there?
So are you saying you did nothing wrong just now?
Look at this.
Did I dig a hole here?
Did I put the water there?
Laundering clothes inside and washing up will take care of it.
It's not even that big of a deal.
Right, with a face looking like a Gangnam gigolo, talk is easy for you.
Ajumma, it looks like you're trying to start a fight, but
I am a bit busy right now.
Then...
Just a moment, Ajusshi! Stand still for a moment.
Ah really, such a nuisance.
What do you want now?
Hey, hey what are you doing?!
I was just walking by.
But because there is a hole there, that's what happened to you?
It's not like I dug the hole or poured water, so you're SOL, eh?
You said you're busy. Well, goodbye!
Mom, let's get going.
HEY!
Mom, are you okay?
Hey!
What?
~Preview~
Ahjumma, you're not a real mother of the unni on that side, right?
Are you crazy? Are you trying to worry me to death?
The person who wants to become the president works at the company. The person who is not interested works as a prosecutor.
Are you being sarcastic? - Because my eyes are irritated.
Can I call you mom?
We have to wait for our child.
Is it really not possible for me to be your daughter?
-Scumbag! - Ahjumma!
I can't take this anymore. You're hopeless. Are you trying to eat a restaurant meal for free?
Why are you like this Ajumma?!
Prosecutor Lee Jae Hwa.
This is none other than me.
