Episode 20
Hello?
This is Gu Il Jung.
Are you the person that gave me this number?
Yes. It was me that sent it.
So, who are you?
Who are you?
I'm Kim Mi Sun who used to live in Cheongsan.
Have you been well, President?
What is so urgent?
Is the car ready?
Yes, but,
you want to drive yourself, President?
Where exactly are you going that you don't want to have Driver Yoon take you?
It's dangerous for you to drive alone at night.
Please reconsider.
There's somewhere I need to go alone.
Please step back.
Step back.
No matter what sort of stunts I pull,
are you confident you won't regret it?
I told you, didn't I?
Stake your life on it.
I'm still prepared to do the same.
I assume you've done as I ordered?
Yes, Manager.
Fine.
I can't forgive her.
I absolutely... can't forgive her.
From this moment on, just put your trust in me.
Just look at me, and just do as I say.
Then, it'll be fine.
Oh, what do I do?
what do I do? what do I do?
Are they nuts?
What about our Tak Gu?
Oh, Mi Sun.
Taste this.
This is made from starter number 3.
Oh, oh, oh.
What's the matter? Is there someone outside?
N- n- no!
Oh, this time, it actually looks like bread.
Mmm.
How is it? Is it good?
Mmm, I think I need to try some more.
Mmm, it's hard to describe in a single word.
I was going to take these over to Seo Tae Jo.
I wanted him to taste them too.
He's in right now, right?
No matter whether if you are far away or if you're with me,
you make me cry
Let's go. I'll take you.
The more I love you,
you let me know the missing words
Love like my tears
Even just seeing you hurts,
even if loving you,
breaks all my heart, it's okay
Love I can never let go
A kiss, one night, I can easily give you those things
Love I'll protect even after I die
Since I was born,
But, who I keep in my heart, who I long for,
you make me smile for the first time
don't try to interfere with those things.
I love you
So, what is it you have to tell me?
So, you see, Tak Gu...
as you live life, this happens and... that happens.
Right?
Sure.
And, uh... when a guy and a girl date for a while,
they can love,
and they can break up.
Right?
Right.
If they break up, of course there will be heartache,
but they gotta brush themselves off and get up again, right?
What are you trying to say with such a long lead in?
Well, so, what I'm trying to say
is love and relationships
don't always go the way one side wishes it would go.
Mi Sun, you're not saying...
Did Seo Tae Jo dump you?
That's it. The guy dumped you, right?
No, well, Tak Gu, the thing is, what I'm saying...
Ahh... I told you Seo Tae Jo wasn't the guy for you.
You should have listened to your older brother.
You had to go and get dumped to learn?
That's not what I'm saying!
Never mind. Actually, that's probably for the best.
Anyhow, it couldn't have worked out between the two of you.
I know the guy a bit, and even if it worked out, he would have really given you a hard time.
Oh!
Use this opportunity to clear out your feelings,
and turn our focus on getting ready for the 2nd round of the competition.
And, if you're dealing with anything difficult, just talk to this big brother of yours, hmm?
For starters, remake this bread.
To call this bread, there's too much of a smell of burnt flour.
Huh?
Smell...
What to do about this?
Do you regret it?
Are you regretting coming to see me?
If that's the case, tell me now.
Once this moment passes,
it may be that neither you nor I can ever turn it back.
So, think about it again carefully and answer.
Do you regret coming to see me?
Why? Are you scared?
Now that you're actually about to start things with me, are you scared?
If that's the case, like you said, tell me here and now,
that you want me to quit.
Then I'll quit.
Start by buying some clothes tomorrow at the department store.
Rather than flashy showy styles, my mother likes the refined look.
Go find Client Manager Jung at Department Store J.
She'll know what to do and treat you well.
And start to learn how to play golf too.
My mother likes to play the game.
And another thing.
Don't ever meet with Kim Tak Gu again.
I won't concern myself with your heart or feelings,
because I have a feeling you won't be much fun the moment you feel anything real for me.
But still, don't see Kim Tak Gu again.
You associating with him makes you look bad.
End it.
And what else?
And what else do I need to do?
No matter what happens after today,
don't ever say you regret anything.
I definitely gave you a final opportunity,
and you're the one that didn't quit.
Just try and regret it.
Then, I really won't let you be.
You're scared that I'll see Kim Tak Gu. And scared I'll regret this.
And what else?
Aren't you afraid of your mother?
At this rate, do you really think we can take this all the way to its end?
Shin Yu Kyung,
don't take me as a some easy pushover.
When I start to act up, there's no stopping me.
There's a family gathering this Sunday.
I'll pick you up at 1:00, so be waiting.
Scared? Me?
Don't test me anymore!
There are boundaries to my patience. Keep that in mind.
You have to know you've reached the boundaries of my patience, Il Jung.
That's it. Let's go.
Mrs. Gong. Mrs. Gong!
Yes, Madam.
Has my husband left for work already?
Excuse me?
Aigoo, well...
It couldn't be that he didn't come in last night?
I don't think he did come in, Madam.
Good Morning.
What's the occasion? You're up early this morning.
Eat your breakfast and go to work.
What's the matter with Mom?
Well... aigoo, the President didn't come home last night.
Excuse me?
Father? Without any word?
None.
Aigoo.
I'll answer it.
Hello?
Manager Han.
Ah, Ja Kyung. It's good you answered.
What is it?
I think the President's been in an accident.
I'm almost at the scene.
I'll find out the details and call you back.
And, I think it's best you don't say anything to your mother yet.
There's no need to get her worried at this juncture.
Yes, I understand what you're saying.
I'm on my way to the office, so call me there later.
Yes.
What is it, Unni?
Is there something wrong at the office?
Huh?
A little.
Mom, I'm going to work.
Something urgent came up, so I think I'm going to have to go now.
Don't go anywhere today and stay with Mom.
Why? What is it?
Just do as I say.
I'm going now.
I came after I got the call.
What happened?
There seems to have been an accident last night.
We discovered it at around 5:00 this morning.
The car is pretty badly destroyed.
What happened to the driver?
That's the really strange thing.
When I got to the scene, there was no one here.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean no one was here?
We looked into a few nearby hospitals,
but no one admitted a car accident patient.
In a word, he's missing.
What?
Hey, Seo Tae Jo.
What are you looking for?
My cassette.
Did you see it?
No, I didn't.
Anyhow, have you taken a look at the liquid starters?
For starters, these are ones that smell the most similar.
26 smells a bit sweeter,
32 has a bit more of the makgeolli smell. (makgeolli = unfiltered rice wine)
32 is definitely sharper, right?
And has a bit more taste of alcohol?
The difference in development times of the starters is only about a quarter of a day.
Do you want to take a look?
Here it is.
If you look at the fermentation notes,
one of them took about a day from makgeolli to starter,
and the other took about a day and a quarter from makgeolli to starter,
You... are pretty incredible.
How can you work so easily as though nothing has happened?
What are you saying all of a sudden?
Inside, you find me uncomfortable too.
Yet, how can you talk and laugh as though there's nothing wrong?
Are you that nice or just pretending to be that nice?
- Seo Tae Jo. - Or...
are you grinding your axe on the inside,
and just smiling on the outside?
Hey. You're the one that proposed working on this together.
Didn't you say that we could only get past this round by joining our strengths?
What are you going to do if I'm just trying to sabotage you?
You've never had that thought?
No, I haven't.
Was that what you had in mind?
All right, well, frankly I'm human too,
and I'm not super fond of you.
There are times when I don't like you,
and sometimes, you irk me so much I feel like hitting you.
But every time that happens, I think of the time you re-tied the rope on me.
At that one moment, I felt your sincere feelings.
I had the thought at that moment that perhaps you could have been a friend I could connect with.
So, you think that one moment could make us friends?
In that one measly moment,
you thought you felt my sincere feelings?
Does that make any sense?
I think it's similar to the smell of fermentation.
Just like the best smell comes from the dough at a certain point,
I think a similar scent is given off by people's sincere feelings.
You see, Ma Jun, I like making bread with you here.
It makes me happy.
I wondered if maybe we could just set this whole thing straight between us.
I had that thought, actually.
What our parents couldn't figure out,
- You and I could... - Don't make me laugh.
Who the hell do you think you are?
What the hell is a bum like you going to set straight?
What the hell do you know about me?!
Ma Jun.
A happy-go-lucky schmuck like you without a care in the world makes me want to gag.
without your sense of smell, you couldn't even make bread.
But where the hell did that cassette go?
First, as the poison begins to take effect,
the tongue will become paralyzed.
And as one loses the sense of taste,
the sense of smell will become dull.
How long do the effects of the poison last?
Depends on the quantity used,
but if you use all of this,
the sense of taste and smell will probably never return.
All righty.
Oh geez.
Oh!
Oh, really, now what?
This, this would be difficult.
Excuse me?
Oh, really?
Oh! Is there really no way? If you fix this once for me, you'll really be blessed.
It would cost more to fix.
It would be better to buy a new one.
A new one?
How much is a new one?
What? 85,000 won?
That's a month's salary.
Yeah.
And you're going to replace it?
Where do you have that kind of money?
You're not going to mess with that account, are you?
That's the money you're saving to put out ads to look for your mother.
I have no choice.
I need to use this and replace it.
Instead of doing that, why don't you just confess and apologize to Seo Tae Jo?
Just make it up doing stuff for him.
Don't you know that's nothing for rich kids like Tae Jo?
85,000 won means something different to him than to you.
Aigoo...
Our Mi Sun is so worried about her big brother.
But, Mi Sun,
no matter how poor a person is,
he still has to do the right thing.
That's the only way I can stand tall and be able to mouth off in front of him.
Okay?
It's because you act like fool like this that you get Shin Yu Kyung taken from you! You know?
You don't know the relationship between Seo Tae Jo and Shin Yu Kyung, do you?
You don't know that they're seeing each other behind your back right now, do you?
I trust Yu Kyung.
What?
Like you say, Tae Jo might have feelings for Yu Kyung.
But, not Yu Kyung.
I trust Yu Kyung.
Hey, Kim Tak Gu.
I'll be back.
Oh, how frustrating!
Ay!
How may I help you?
Geosung Foods' Gu Ma Jun sent me.
He said if I ask for Manager Jung, she could help me.
Ah, yes, I see.
Come this way.
Don't try to change the world.
Just change yourself.
This way please.
Even though your eyes are still remaining in my heart,
time keeps trying to erase you
I only have you even if I get hurt
You're the only one for me
It's my love left
It's my memories that hurt
I'm suffering and in pain
If you become one of the "haves" rather than the "have nots"
But you're always there
then the world automatically changes.
Although I hold you in my heart
That's how it works.
although I ignore and abandon you
- Not this one, but I'll try on the one before it. - Yes.
I can't help but gather it in my heart that's crying
because that's love
That's right. It's me.
What happened?
You mean they still have no idea of what happened?
Where the hell did an injured man disappear to, in the middle of the night, even?
Did you search all the nearby hospitals?
There was no witness?
Don't let the time drag. Hurry up and find him.
Whatever you have to resort to,
find him. Got it?
Come in.
Manager.
Yes, Ja Kyung.
What about Father. Have you heard anything?
No. I even spoke with the police,
but there's been no new news.
They say Mom is calling every half hour to see if he's in his office.
I told the secretary's office to tell her that he's gone on a business trip to the countryside,
but you know Mom can figure out a lie immediately.
Okay. I understand. I'll go and see her.
Don't worry too much.
He went on a business trip to the countryside?
Yes.
Last night, something suddenly came up in Cheongjung,
and he's let us know that he's going to drop by the other factories as well.
Really?
I don't know what's going on,
but for today, I'll pretend to be fooled.
I was hoping for some explanation as soon as possible,
but for now, I'll let it go at that.
Still, could you let him know that I'd like it if he wouldn't be late for our family gathering today?
Really?
I understand.
Seo Tae Jo.
What is it, Jin Gu Hyungnim?
Is there any problem between you and Tak Gu these days?
No. But why do you suddenly ask?
Just because
the relationship between the two of you seems different than before.
No, there's no issue.
Pointless competitiveness will only make your life a ruined defeat.
If you take something from someone, you'll lose double what you take.
What are you trying to say right now?
I'm telling you that Kim Tak Gu is not your competition, Tae Jo.
You two are of different calibers.
You can never beat the kid.
You'll only be consumed by that hatred inside,
and ultimately you'll become the loser.
Is that so?
So you're saying that Kim Tak Gu is that incredible.
And that's why Master Pal Bong and you, and the whole family here
are looking out just for him, right?
That's not what I meant by that.
Let's talk about results after the competition is over.
I'll show you all very clearly what a nothing that guy really is.
Here you go.
Ah yes. Here.
Thank you.
[Pal Bong Bakery]
Excuse me, Grandpa.
What are you doing here?
Have you come to buy bread?
Uh? Are you on your way out?
Ah, that's right.
Kim Tak Gu.
Go to that address by 2:00.
Why?
I was thinking you might want to have lunch with me.
Don't be late.
Lunch?
What's up with you?
Yeah, okay.
I won't be late.
See you later.
Whoa.
I'm back!
Aigoo.
Does this pass?
Would I fit into your household like this?
Get in. We'll be late.
Unni, what about Father? Will he be late?
Huh? I'm not sure.
What about Ma Jun?
Did he say he was coming on time?
I did give him a call.
He did say that he was busy getting ready for the competition and all, though.
Guests have arrived.
Ah, you came, Ma Jun.
We were waiting for you.
What about Father?
He might not be able to make it today.
What are you doing? Come sit down.
I brought someone, Mom.
Who?
Ma Jun.
It's my girlfriend.
Hello.
Sit.
Is this the right place?
Wow. It's fancy.
Can you explain, Ma Jun?
Why is that girl here right now?
I told you.
I brought her to introduce her to you.
What kind of joke is this?
This is no joke, Noona.
Shin Yu Kyung and I are seeing each other seriously.
Just because you put on this demonstration, I won't blink an eye.
If you don't want to be humiliated in a formal setting, then get out now.
I'm sorry, but I'm no longer a Geosung Foods employee.
So, please don't order me around, Madam.
Ma Jun, stop it now and get up with Yu Kyung.
Why?
Wasn't this supposed to be a gathering for a meal?
I made the effort to come. Shouldn't we at least eat first?
Do you have to set the mood like this at the first family gathering we've had in a month?
was the mood ever very good in our house?
Why make a deal out of it all of a sudden, Noona?
- Ma Jun... - Enough.
Everybody shut up.
Ja Kyung, let's begin. Have them send in the food.
Just a second.
There's still one more person coming, Mom.
A guest has arrived.
Tae Jo.
Mom, since you've already met, I won't have to introduce you.
Noonas, you can say hello.
It's your other little brother, Kim Tak Gu.
What?
Tak Gu?
Ma Jun, you...
What the hell is this?
Didn't you say it was a family gathering?
Anyhow, since Father has met the guy,
there's no reason to hide it.
What are you doing? Come and sit down.
Why don't we all sit down as a family and cozily enjoy our lunch.
Oh, that's right.
You should say hello too.
What are you doing, Shin Yu Kyung? Aren't you going to say hello?
There isn't even a week left before the competition. Where is everybody?
I cannot tolerate this any longer.
Ma Jun, what on earth compelled you to set up a situation like this?
After you finish up here, come home immediately and explain.
Such shallow things.
It's been a long time.
Mom, stop. Let's just go for today.
It's because of Ma Jun.
Later, scold him at home. Okay?
If your Father had come, he would have had quite a sight to see.
You saw that kid Tak Gu too, right?
How could he put something like that on our family registry
and even bring him in to work at the company?
Father said he was going to bring Tak Gu in to work at the company?
He did.
Then he stays out all night without calling?
There's no way I'm going to let this just pass.
No way.
Mom, actually about Father,
Tell me. What happened?
Tell me the truth about what happened.
I heard he was in an accident, that he's missing.
What the hell happened? Tell me the truth!
Yes, there was an accident.
The scene of the accident was discovered,
but the man disappeared.
He's currently considered a missing person.
It couldn't have been... it wasn't, was it?
It wasn't you, was it?
Look me straight in the eyes and tell me.
It wasn't you, was it? Right?
You're the one that said you wouldn't regret it no matter what I did.
And I merely did the best I could under the circumstances.
Are you crazy?
Are you out of your mind?!
How could you dare, how could you dare lay a hand on him?
Who the hell told you to do such a thing?
Who told you to lay a hand on him?
Go find him immediately.
If by chance, anything happens to him,
I will never forgive you.
I will never let you be.
Understand?
President!
President. President! President!
President, wake up! President!
President.
Out of the way, please.
President.
President. Please wake up now.
President.
Is it you?
Is it really you?
Are you feeling somewhat awake now, President?
You were alive?
Yes, it's true.
This cruel life of mine was relentlessly living on.
Thank goodness.
Truly, thank goodness.
You're alive.
Thank goodness.
No.
Not him.
Honey.
Neither one of you seem to have much to say,
so let's just go, Shin Yu Kyung.
Aren't you coming?
Yu Kyung.
It's not true, right?
This right now, none of it is true, right?
I'll only listen to what you have to say.
I'll only believe what you say.
I won't concern myself with whatever anyone else says.
So, answer me.
It's not true, right?
I'm mistaking what I'm seeing, right?
My thinking is mistaken, right?
Right?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Tak Gu.
Are you now understanding the situation a little bit?
No matter how much I tried to tell you, you just wouldn't believe.
So, how was it?
Now that you've seen with your own eyes, does it seem more real?
Didn't you say you wanted to be my hyung?
As an older brother, you could at the very least, concede one girl to your little brother.
Isn't that so?
Then, I'll be going.
This isn't happening.
This isn't real.
There's no way this could happen.
Tell me it's not true, Yu Kyung.
Tell me it's all lies.
Tell me, Yu Kyung.
Yu Kyung!
Aren't you going?
If you want to quit now, you can always go back.
You really set your mind on that one.
So, do you feel better now?
Are you thrilled because you feel like you've beaten Tak Gu?
What's this?
Aigoo, so this is where all my coins were.
What's this bottle?
It came out of Tae Jo's clothes.
But I don't have any idea what medicine it is.
Tae Jo seems like he's from a well-to-do family.
Do you think maybe it's one of those things that are good for your health?
Why? Do you want to try it?
Yes, well actually, every morning and night, I've had an aching body.
Oh my gosh!
How long have you been here?
I'm sorry if I startled you.
I'm just coming in now.
Ah, I see.
But, what kind of medicine is it that you snatch it out of my hands?
Does it have some rare ingredients in it or something?
No, it's not like that. It's just
cold medicine.
I got a prescription for it.
Tak Gu didn't come in with you?
No. Has he not returned yet?
Just because you passed round one,
aren't you guys taking it a little too easy?
I'm sorry.
Tak Gu bought that for you.
He took out the 85,000 won he had saved up in this account and bought it new.
For you.
You probably know without my having to explain, what that money meant to him, right?
Stupid fool.
He doesn't even know that something was being taken from him,
and goes to buy that sort of thing with his blood, sweat and tears money.
There's probably no other fool like that in this world.
Don't you think, Tae Jo?
But, it's really no fun at all.
What should I do, Master?
You see, Ma Jun, I like making bread with you here.
It makes me happy.
Stupid fool.
- Positions! - Positions!
Where's Kim Tak Gu?
He didn't come in again last night.
Jae Bok.
- Go see if he's cleaning out the walk-in cooler. - Yes
Oh... Tak Gu!
Tak Gu!
What's the matter Jin Gu, Hyungnim?
His forehead is on fire.
What?
This won't do.
Let's take him home, Jin Gu. Put him on your back, huh?
Hurry.
Aigoo, that kid, you think he's working too hard with the competition so close?
Jin Gu, for starters,
I think you should go to the drugstore and get some fever reducer.
Yes, all right.
Are you okay?
Oh my goodness. Feel how he's burning up.
Was he lying in the kitchen like that all night?
Tak Gu.
Tak Gu?
We probably should have taken him to the hospital, Mom.
For now, let's feed him the medicine that Jin Gu goes to buy.
Ah, that's right, Tae Jo had some cold medicine.
But, do you think there's a drugstore open right now? It's so early.
Ah Tae Jo, didn't you say you had some cold medicine yesterday?
- Excuse me? - That's right.
The medicine from yesterday.
The prescription.
You can let Tak Gu have some for now.
If that's the case, Madame probably already gave it to him.
She's quick, our Madame.
That's true, our Madame Oh. In a crisis, she's got a quick head and quick hands.
No!
Here it is.
First, let's give him a spoonful and if it seems to be effective, let's give him more.
Tak Gu.
Tak Gu?
Tak Gu.
Wake up and take some of this. Hmm?
