The Family is Coming Episode 2
Dong Seok's father submitted his resignation at school.
And our household is about to be ruined.
Dong Seok.
If I just disappear, everything may go away.
Father! I'll take care of everything. Okay?
Your eldest son will take care of it, so you just come home. Okay?
His student asked him for help, so with the house as collateral,
he got a loan.
How much do we need to save the house?
With the principal amount plus interest, it's a total of ₩300 million ($300K).
You must pay by the end of this month.
My feet are cold.
I'm Lawyer Gook Jun Hee from Global Law Firm.
You're a fragile looking lady, but you have guts.
Oh my mom!
Oh, James!
Welcome to Korea!
I'll make a formal introduction. I'm Audrey Jung. Please take good care of me.
I don't really know how much I own in total. My memory is hazy.
Promise me that we'll only take 20% of her inheritance.
We two siblings, can we only do that much?
Don't be too greedy. Too much is as bad as too little.
Oppa, think of your age.
Please snap out of it and grow up.
Whether you get a job again or continue studying, do something!
- Father! - You!
How dare you show your face here! I should just put you through the mixer!
Ah! I hope you all listen to me.
I don't have an illness that I'll die from sometime soon, like Dal Ja said,
but I hear that I don't have that much time. That's why I came.
I ran Korean restaurants in America, China, and Japan. I gathered up quite a lot of money.
And so I came here to give you that.
Dal Soo, Dal Ja. I couldn't help but to leave you behind.
You were always on my mind.
Before I die, I wanted to see your face
and the money I earned through sweat and blood,
I came to give it to my children.
Aigoo, Mom!
Open the door!
Mom! Receive my bow.
Ah. No, no, no.
I lived in America for 50 years.
Let's do this American style. Hug, okay?
Come on.
Hug? Aigoo, Mom!
I'm your daughter-in-law.
I'm your grandchild's husband. Park Se Ho.
She's an incredible grandma.
Within 1 hour of entering the house, she went from an immoral cheater who abandoned her children
to a hero. This is a huge plot twist.
Grandmother!
So Grandmother, how much did you earn?
Oh, I'm not sure.
About $20 Million?
[ Calculating currency into won ]
What? It's over ₩20 Billion?
Whoop-Dee-Doo!
Perfect! It's totally perfect!
Grandma, you're my style!
Episode 2
- Excuse me, I'm looking for this house. - Yes.
How can I get here?
You go straight up and go right, it's right there.
You just need to turn one more corner there, and it's there.
- Thank you. - Yes, good bye.
Choi Dong Seok's life is going to bloom like this.
Millionaire Grandmother? So cool. I don't need to worry about leaving home anymore.
$300K has been taken care of.
Oh my! How much is it?
I'm saved. I'm saved now.
- It's a lottery! She's a lottery mother-in-law. - Mom?
Eat some strawberries, too.
You guys shouldn't be like this.
Don't be played around by money that may not actually exist!
Excuse me, is this Mr. Choi Dong Seok's home?
What are you doing here?
Well, the front door was open.
Lawyer Gook!
Lawyer?!
Hey, I told you I'd come alone today. You decided to follow me after all?
But how do you know Dong Seok?
At the airport...
I'm Madame Audrey's legal representative and personal lawyer, Lawyer Gook Jun Hee.
Gook Jun Hee?
Come on in!
Not Na Jun Hee?
English name, Susan Johnson. Korean name, Na Jun Hee.
Hold on. You're Gook Jun Hee, not Na Jun Hee?
Didn't you say you were Na Jun Hee?
Lawyer Gook Jun Hee is my legal representative
as well as my partner who will help me decide on all matters related to succession of property.
So you two get along.
Can you explain this situation so that I can understand?
Are you really a lawyer?
Then would I be a fake?
- What to do? - You should've been careful!
Wow, you stole my luggage when you were a lawyer,
and you ran away after damaging my treasured item like this?
About the bag, you saw wrong. And the pen, I have no recollection of it at all. What to do?
Is that so? Fine. That's that.
But how are you going to explain your name?
On the phone, you said you were Susan Johnson, Na Jun Hee. Remember?
About that. I was adopted to America when I was 7 years old.
I studied Korean really hard, but I make mistakes like this.
I was saying "my" (Na) name is Jun Hee, but it sounded like that. Sorry.
Watch.
An apology and compensation for my pen that was crushed under your relentless foot, shouldn't that come first?
You keep talking about your pen, and although I don't remember anything,
Sorry, very sorry.
I'll buy you another one of the same thing. How much?
You can't calculate it with money.
Never mind the compensation. Go find me the exact same thing.
Oh, and... Here. It's still safe and sound, so don't worry.
I'll give it to you when you find it. Until then, I'll keep it as hostage.
How is there such thing? There might not even be a pen that's exactly the same!
I said I'll give you the money!
Do you even know how much this is? Do you have that much money?
I'll try search for it, but there might not be one.
The photo inside the watch is also one and only.
If you lose it or damage it, I won't stay still.
Don't you worry. I'll keep it safe.
Money envelope.
Seriously, I want to act petty like you.
But I'm just handing it over in case you mess with my watch.
You must really be a lawyer. You're good at making fast decisions and judgment.
Anyways, it looked like you're smart, and also have a good educational background.
Why are you working at the errand center?
What about it? I'm going to keep living while dreaming.
Here, watch.
Here.
Oh yeah. Since when were you in charge of Grandma's case?
Since yesterday.
What? And she's going to trust you and leave everything to you? She doesn't even know you.
Even we met just yesterday, and we're already using informal speech and chatting like friends.
I'm 31. You?
I'm 2 years older.
I lived in America for a very long time, so I don't know about "oppa". I'm going American style, okay?
But aren't you curious? You must get on Grandma's good side in order to receive a lot of inheritance.
How could you steal her heart at one go?
Are you going to keep using informal speech to your oppa?
She will never hand it over easily. You should prepare yourself.
I don't need any more. I just need $300K by the end of this month.
You're an heir to 20 billion won. Isn't it being too simple to have mere $300K be your goal?
Right now in my pocket...
Besides what I earned, I don't even have $300. You say my goal of $300K is too simple?
This is a matter that determine's the life and death of our family.
Ah, forget it. What do I need to do to gain Grandmother's favor?
That valuable information for free?
Okay, okay. This is an investment.
Let's spend when I have to.
By any chance, have we met before?
After you were adopted, you grew up in America, right?
Asking if we've met before, isn't this an outdated pickup line?
You're not thinking of secretly taking pictures to look at them from time to time, right? That's really old, too.
Hey, Watch. If you're that delusional, it's an illness. Eat medicine or go to a hospital.
Money Envelope. You come to your senses and listen. First, get rid of your bum image.
I'm not a bum.
Then what are you? Do you have a job? A career?
Job...
Oh right...
Here. I'm going to become a Creative Director.
These are evidence of my efforts and possibility.
Look at it. Is it not enough?
In any case, it means you are currently a jobless bum.
So, are you doing it or not?
I'll teach you two things today.
As for other information, I'll let you know depending on how you act.
What are you drawing?
I'm thinking...
It may be more clear and comfortable to write it into words.
I just... Like this...
It's more comfortable and better for me.
And I feel more at ease if other people don't know what I wrote.
But you were that worried about me, enough to follow me like that?
I knew you were kind-hearted, but that you had strong sense of responsibility
and had a lot of compassion, I didn't know.
You were apart from this family for 50 years. Whether they would welcome you,
whether you, Madame, would be alone and awkward alone,
I was so worried that I couldn't stand still.
But... Calling me Madame makes me feel distant and so formal.
You seem to be around Dong Seok's age.
Just call me Grandma.
I can really do that?
I don't have a grandmother so I wanted to try calling you that.
Oh, is that right?
Then don't hold back and call me that as much as you want.
Yes, Grandmother.
Grandmother, Grandmother.
Aigoo.
It doesn't look like my children have it easy.
I didn't even get to see my son Dal Soo yet.
That's true, he's nowhere to be seen. Did he go on a business trip?
Lawyer Gook, for me,
if my inheritance becomes poison, not a blessing, to my children,
I might not give it to them.
Huh?
- Ah, smells nice! - Mother!
Wow! Wow! Looks good!
We didn't know what you usually eat,
so steamed dish, braised short ribs, steak, all kinds. Try eating.
Aigoo.
Sit down.
Aigoo, my heart's at ease thinking that my Dal Soo has been eating well.
Ah, my Mother-in-law's cooking is a killer. That's why I packed my bags and moved in.
That's right.
Mom won't let me eat because I'll gain weight.
Chae Won, you need to watch it when you're young.
That way you'll be able to maintain a thin body like your mother.
That's right. Your mother has a good body.
Grandmother, that's the one thing that made me decide to marry her.
Haha.
Oh, it's okay. I understand that much.
Ah, why do you keep cooking? There's too much food. It's a waste.
Yes, yes.
But, did Dal Soo go somewhere?
Yes... That...
I'll tell him to come quick.
Father! Oh...
Perhaps... Have you seen this person?
Father!
- Dong Seok. - Don't disturb me.
I made the family suffer, and in middle of winter,
I made everyone go out on the streets. I have no right as the head of household.
Pretend I don't exist, and live well.
Father!
But... What does it mean that your late grandmother came back alive?
Father,
come home to meet your mother.
Why are you in that house?
Did you go together because Mom called you?
It's not it, it was scary...
Because of that name, Na Jun Hee Gook Jun Hee.
Why did you do something that's not in our plan?
Well, I lost something, and Choi Dong Seok happened to take it.
Ah, I don't know. In any case, I would have had to come here anyways.
You did well.
But... What's this about Mom revealing how much she owns?
She said she has over 20 billion won.
Oh my gosh!
Mom has over 20 billion won?
You lived with her for 16 years, and you didn't know that?
She had 20 billion won, but she was careful to spend a mere 2,000 won?
It can't be...
She said it herself.
But I think she has more than that.
Really? What the family's response? They're going crazy trying to gain a penny more, right?
No, not right now.
Are they testing out the waters? Watching each other first?
Have Michael find out how much Madame Jung owns in America, at least.
She's a foreigner so it shouldn't be that hard to find out.
Okay. Anything else you need?
Although it's not right for us to covet money that the old lady diligently saved up,
if she has that much, I understand why you're drooling over it.
That's it, Sister. That's what I'm saying.
Indeed. We understand each other because we're siblings.
Still, it's only enough to pay back your debt. 20%. Don't desire more than that.
First find out if she really has 20 billion won. Then we can move on to the next step.
Okay. I'll do it immediately.
Did you go somewhere?
I was waiting for you.
I was just thinking of greeting you, you know, to say we should get along well.
How long have you been Mother's legal representative?
Being in charge of her, it's since she came back to Korea.
Oh my. And you act like you're really special and close to her?
Is my Mother that friendly or are you that outgoing?
By chance, you're not also interested in my Mother's inheritance, are you?
What?
Should I say "indecent desires" in order for you to understand right away?
You seem flustered.
It's a joke. A joke.
A joke.
Of course I'm very interested. The inheritance got me the job. It's how I earn money.
Oh, is that so?
In any case, since you have a say in deciding the inheritance share,
I guess I'd have to get on your good side, right?
I can't tell you that you're wrong.
Are you curious about how I rated you?
Well, not really.
Just because it looks like I'm living well, it's unfair to reduce my share.
I just wanted to say that.
What I have now, I didn't get it for free.
While others slept and ate, I didn't. I gathered up all that money getting cursed out by everyone.
To someone like that, shouldn't there be extra points?
Yes.
If I get a good share, you think I'd ignore you?
Yes...
Hey!
- Watch! Did you do something wrong? Your face tells all. - Even with the bag incident, he's so uselessly keen.
I went to see a fortune teller because things weren't working out.
You know what she said?
She said I'll see a late blessing. Gosh, as if.
Look at this.
The lottery Mother-in-law that showed up after 50 years.
Mom. That can't all be lies and just for show, right?
No way. What can she gain by conning us like that?
Still, it feels wrong to serve her as boss with just her words.
With an illness and nowhere to go, she could be trying to wedge her way in using money as bait.
Still, isn't it much better than secretly sneaking in at night to shamelessly wedge themselves in?
Ha ha, well.
But if we go by law, how much can each of us get?
I'm not sure. It's not inheritance we get after she passes, so it's all up to her.
Your father hasn't contacted you yet?
He even turned off his phone. I don't know where he went. I'm going crazy right now.
Brother!
What are you doing here?
Oh, President Lee.
Can you recognize me?
Can't you recognize me?
You look like Dal Soo Hyungnim no matter what. Why are you here like this?
I can't be seen by my family.
Look, I'm just going to go home and assess the situation and come back again.
You go on your way.
If something came up at home, I'll take care of it.
Just go, please.
- I said I'll help you. - Just be quiet and go!
I...
But do legal representatives have power? Do we need to get on that woman's good side?
Then shouldn't we suck up to that woman or lobby her or something?
The way I see it, Mom, in this situation, I think she can influence the decision.
I think it'll be best to win her over.
Hey, you said you know her.
Not really. Just a little.
Dong Seok, we're not in the position to pick and choose.
No matter the outcome, why don't you try your best?
Don't worry, Mom.
Madame Jung Ggeut Soon's list: One. She absolutely hates people who are lazy and slow.
Don't push back things to do. Do it right away.
Madame Jung Ggeut Soon's list: Two. She doesn't waste a dollar.
She loves people who are frugal.
Mom. I'll go straight into Grandma's house and definitely protect this house.
Of course you will.
I'll definitely get the ₩300 million ($300,000) won that will save our house. Trust me.
What did you say? She owns more than ₩20 billion($20 million)! What's ₩300 million ($300,000)?
Your Aunt has a lot of money, and we have nothing.
Then we should get at least half of the inheritance!
Definitely!
You guys shouldn't act like this.
When a person shows up after 50 years, how she lived
and what this is about, it's what's right as human beings to ask her and care.
How can it just be about money, money, money?
Does Jung Ggeut Soon look like money to you?
He turned off his phone.
Is that so? Then we should just barge in. Is it this house?
Yes, Hyungnim.
Aish!
Leave.
No, you can't hit him!
Six-head down. Six-head down.
Head down. Down. Deep.
Look, I can't anymore.
That's why, why did you butt in and borrow trouble?
It's hurting my heart. Hey, exempt him.
Yes. Get up.
Hey, get up.
If I let you borrow with a special discounted interest,
with a thankful heart, you should have made a special pay back.
I'm sorry.
If you ran away at night, you thought we wouldn't be able to find you?
Well, I was just going to unpack our luggage
and call you right away.
Do I look like a fool?
Aigo.
What to do?
Ahjusshi! My husband is nothing without his handsome face! You can't touch his face!
Handsome?
Oh? Oh?
Aigoo, hey! What are you?
Why are you doing this? Why?
Lawyer Gook. Them barging in like this, isn't it against the law?
Yes, it's against the law.
Try stating the creditor's fair collection law for them.
State w-w-what?
What?
I'm just so flustered.
According to Article 9.1 of the creditor's fair collection law,
When the creditor assaults, threatens, or confines the debtor and/or related parties--
Dong Seok, look at the state of these wretched beings.
You think the law will get through to them? It will only hurt your mouth.
Ah, we're very lawful people.
Forget it. How much did he borrow that you're barging in like this, without any manners?
It's ₩30 million ($30,000). Why, are you going to pay for it?
- Are you crazy? - No, no!
What the!
Are you crazy? Are you crazy?
Ashh.
Hey. Let's settle this with ₩15 million ($15,000).
Are you going to take it or not? If you lose this chance, you might not get a cent.
Take ₩15 million and drop the ₩30 million?
Looks like Grandma's senses have left.
Hey, come back, senses. Come back.
Stop that already!
Look at his sorry face. You think he's capable to pay back?
Are you going to accept it or not?
₩15 million, I'll take it.
Why you little...
What's this? You're a girl. Why you...
You should talk politely to elders!
Ah, seriously, this Grandma.
- What? - What?
What do you want me to do? What?
Leave already!
Dong Seok.
Come in!
Come.
- Hey, Watch. - Huh?
Come see me.
Wow. Bravo.
I can just see how my Grandmother lived.
For me, I can see the pathetic way your family lived.
Hey, Watch. That's not the way my family lived. It's the way Park Se Ho lived.
Money Envelope. Your family's loyalty is only worth that much?
Just because he's an in-law, can you be indifferent like that?
If you know how much damage Park Se Ho caused to our family, you wouldn't say that.
Still, a family should stand together and unite. United, it's death. Divided, it's a painful death. Don't you know?
Isn't it united we stand, divided we fall?
Whether you throw it over or give a piggy-back ride, it's the same.
You mean, whether you throw it over or flip it over. (meaning either way the result is the same)
What's this about a piggy back?
Anyways, how do you know so much about the law?
Why are you so curious?
It was my Father and Grandfather's wish, so I took the bar exam twice.
But, no matter how startled, a lawyer forgot the law?
Are you really a lawyer?
You're laughing?
Are you?
Will you state Article 9.1 of the creditor's fair collection law?
- What? - What?
Oh, Dong Seok hyung!
Oh, Hak Yeon.
Hyung, what are you doing?
Hyung! Have you finally escaped from Hyun Ae noona's shadow?
You're finally starting the second romance of your life?
She's so pretty. Why didn't you tell me?
Hey. Go. Hurry, go.
Wait!
Hyun Ae?
Aigoo, sit here.
Ah, gosh. I'm uncomfortable.
Hey.
You sit here. I'll sit here.
Grandma, have this.
No.
Mother, where's the hotel with your luggage?
He and I will go fetch it.
Of course, Mom. Sleeping out when you have two children? No way.
You kids shouldn't be like this.
The sin she committed, the scars she gave us,
they can't be erased with a couple dollars.
If you're uncomfortable with seeing Father, do you want to go to our home?
Dal Ja. Choi Dal Ja. My daughter!
Even if everyone else stabs me in the back, you shouldn't.
Do you want to see your father die?
You know how I cherished you as I was raising you?
That's right.
Aigoo. And you were so cold to Dal Soo, you petty human being.
Aigoo.
I like it here, so let me use Dong Seok's room for a few days.
What do you mean a few days? You should use it forever.
Should we have Lawyer Gook move in here, too?
- Can she do that? - Of course.
Dong Joo's old room on the second floor is empty.
And if it's for you, Mother, we should even give you the main bedroom!
So,
I'll use Dong Seok's room, and Lawyer Gook can use Dong Joo's old room.
Aiyoo.
Here. Living allowance.
Suddenly there's two more mouths to feed. I shouldn't stay still. Here.
This isn't necessary.
- Aish. - Give it!
Since you're giving it to me, I'll thankfully receive it.
We're home.
You arrived?
You'll need to share a room with Dong Seok.
Grandma wants to take your room.
The stairs to the second floor is dangerous for Grandmother, so please do that.
Aigoo.
Aigoo, you look pretty, and the way you think is also pretty.
Thank you very much.
But you should ask for my opinion too. It's my room!
Why?
What?
I want to go someplace.
No, it's just that I want to take you there.
Omo.
Okay, let's go. Oh, that startled me.
- Grandmother. - Yes? - The weather is cold and the wind is blowing. Why did you want to come here?
There's nothing to see here.
This is where my first love and I
had our first date.
I hadn't stepped out of my country home even once.
That person, he brought me here.
How old were you then?
18 years old.
Who do you think was my first love?
Who knows?
Choi Jong Tae!
Really?
Your grandfather who can't wait to kill me, he's my first love.
Can you believe it?
No.
Wow, then you two married your first love?
Grandmother, want something to drink?
Okay, I like it.
Americano?
Okay, Americano.
- Thank you. - Here.
Aigoo.
But your grandfather, he was pretty good.
I fell for him when I saw him in the radiant
uniform of a renowned high school.
Oh, this place is the same. I'm the only one that aged.
♫ I get queasy just looking at you ♫
Give me your hand.
♫ 19 years old, starting my first love ♫
Ggeut Soon, let's get married.
If my family continues to be against it, I'll leave home.
Let's do well in Seoul.
♫ Ooh in my heart, Ooh hidden there ♫
The seat over there
is where I was proposed to, 52 years ago.
You loved each other like that. How did you two become enemies like now?
I know, right?
We faced oppositions because I was the daughter of a person who served at Choi Jong Tae's house, and we overcame them all.
And ended up marrying.
Wow. I didn't know such romance existed.
Grandfather was cool.
That's right. Cool.
Wow! There's this beautiful place in Seoul?
Wow! I can't believe! Wow!
It's very very pretty!
Hyun.
Grandmother.
Ah! Dong Seok!
Grandmother, if you're not like this...
Grandmother, I didn't know.
It's okay.
Aiyoo, why's it so big here. I was in trouble when I lost you.
Aigoo, let's go! Aigoo, aigoo.
Aigoo.
It's alright! It's okay.
Aigoo.
Here.
Wow!
Oh my, how pretty!
Please enjoy.
Ah, look at the fine colors.
Give me a sheet.
- You, Grandma? - Yeah.
♬ Even though you color your fingernails with the red balsam♬
♬ After several nights, it will be lost ♬
♬ Where did my dear thread go♬
What are you looking at like that?
♬ which had been twisted around every finger?♬
♬ Among the stars a clear moon♬
- Ta da! - Wow! ♬ Among the stars a clear moon♬
Daebak!
Grandmother.
We can create art together.
It's true that I take after you.
You heard me. I told you so!
Your skills are too valuable to just use it as a hobby.
Everyone thinks I'm pathetic.
But I'm going to make sure my dreams come true.
Here. Grandma.
If you look here, it's where we're going next.
Can you see this? We're going to this place in Insadong.
Over here...
I don't know how to read.
Excuse me?
Secret.
Why don't you be my eyes?
Yes, Grandmother.
- Dong Seok. - Yes.
Having a rich Grandmother show up suddenly,
how did you feel?
- Honestly? - Yes, honestly.
Honestly... Kind of like winning the lottery.
I can't really believe it. It's like that.
Then when you get the inheritance money, what do you want to do the most?
Grandma, I'm ashamed and sorry to tell you this.
Say it.
Our family is having a hard time.
Father was helping out his student,
and things went wrong. If we don't pay back the money,
then the house will be turned over to be auctioned.
How much do you need?
₩300 million. ($300,000)
If I can save the house, I don't need anything else.
If you get the inheritance money, you can buy a much bigger and better house.
The house isn't just a house.
To Mother and Father, it's like their child.
It took them two years to build that house on an empty lot.
They suffered so much.
And Grandmother, I think the most important thing is that
if we don't save the house, Father will break down out of guilt.
I want to take care of the house
and I want to take care of Father, too.
As their eldest son, even when the house is in an uproar,
I'm only living like a half-bum, trying to draw pictures.
Aren't I pathetic?
Well, I guess you don't seem to be in an exceptional state, but
it's good for people to have dreams.
On top of that, if it's an earnest wish, that dream will come true someday.
Wow, Grandmother! You're smart!
Dong Seok! Dong Seok!
Wait! Dong Seok!
I pleaded with you so much and tried to stop you!
I thought about it a thousand times over.
But I still needed to do this.
Dong Seok, if you quit this job and leave, we're over too.
This company where I was employed for one year,
how can this be the reason to end our ten year relationship?
Get your resignation letter back.
Then I'll take that ring back again, too.
Why are there so many Chinese characters?
Ah, Choi Dong Seok! Why did he study law of all things?
Making it so nerve-wracking!
Oh! Seriously!
Oppa! Open the door!
Oppa?
- Father. - Yes? - Dong Joo came.
Oh, right. Dong Joo came.
Come on in.
Aiyoo, it's your Grandmother.
Grandmother, this is Dong Joo, the youngest daughter.
Aigoo, so you're Dong Joo.
Aigoo, let me see your face.
Why sunglasses at night?
She got the looks in the family.
Stay still.
You just stay still. Stay still.
Hey! What is this?
My word! Did you live getting beaten up all this time?
Hey, come let me have a look! What's this? Why's it like this?
Why these little!
Hey get your Mom!
I'm sorry to show up in this state.
What are you sorry for? It isn't your fault.
Aiyoo, those despicable human beings.
My word.
Hey! I'm sorry when you got off work, but let's make a domestic violence report. Ah, Dad!
Ah, Honey, Honey! Calm down!
Hey Watch! From now on, can you also be Choi Dong Joo's legal representative?
Ok.
But...
What do I need to do first, again? We should go to the hospital first, right?
It'll be best to get a medical report.
You're the pro, why are you asking?
I'm a peace-lover. Just hearing the word violence makes me go queasy.
Police Station
Are you going only going to sue for violence today,
or are you going to add more to this?
So the thing is... Since we're doing it, we should add everything, right?
Right?
Having an affair, her husband's violence and verbal abuse, her in-law's violence and verbal abuse. All of it.
Lawyer, you must be in more shock than the victim.
It can happen. Since you're both women, you can be more pissed off.
- Yes. - Please calm down.
You know the 6 questions, right? Who? What? When? Where? Why? And how were you beaten?
Please tell me in detail. And the affair part isn't handled by the police, so please take it out.
I know. I know, but
thinking of what she went through, it makes me so mad.
About other temporary measures, are you going to request any?
Rather than temporary measures, we need more fundamental measures.
We'd like to put them behind bars right away, but first we'll talk with them and--
No, that's not it. I'm asking if you're going to request isolation, restraining order, and things like that.
Of course you should restrain him from approaching. She was beaten to this state.
Is this the first time your husband beat you?
It can't be. Would she come to the police if it happened only once?
- Ms. Lawyer. - Yes? - Why I'm asking these questions,
is it because you really don't know? Why are you like this?
I know. I know, but...
But...
My client, really, it's so...
I'm so upset.
It already repeated many times, and there is a big possibility of recurrence.
The day before, I witnessed the scene of the violence and verbal abuse. I also have the medical report of it.
We'll have them punished for everything they can, and we're also going to file for divorce.
If he won't comply, we'll take it to court.
What relationship do you have with the victim?
- I'm her Oppa. - You're much better than the lawyer.
Hey Watch! What firm are you from?
- Global Law Firm. - How long have you been a lawyer?
- 5 years. - What school did you graduate from in America?
- Harvard. - Wait!
Your specialty?
Oh, hello.
Aren't you Global Law Firm's Gook Joon Hee?
Who?
I'm Reporter Yoon Jin Sang from Dokjeom News.
I interviewed you last year because of the tax evasion case.
Hello.
I'm in charge of this district. Lawyer, have you been well?
Let's go.
Choi Dong Joo, come out!
How dare you report my son to the police!
Hold on. Wait.
We put a restraining order on you. You can't come in here.
I just won't go near that wench.
A guest is here and you don't tell me to sit? So mannerless!
We don't intend to welcome you,
and we don't intend to be courteous. So please just leave.
If you have something to say, say it to my lawyer.
That's why I came.
I hear your lawyer lives here.
Special Act for Domestic Violence, Article 63, if you don't comply with a restraining order,
you can be imprisoned for a maximum of 2 years and be fined for a maximum of 20 million won.
If I report you to the police now, you'll be charged right away. Will you leave now or shall I report you?
Since the client is sloppy, the lawyer is also cheap.
- Report me! - Leave!
After making my precious daughter like that, how dare you show up and raise your voice!
Mom, wait. Wait.
I knew you were low class when I had them marry, but I didn't know it was this low.
You only know that your daughter got beaten, but you don't care to know what she did to deserve it, right?
Who in this world deserves to get beaten and wouldn't care?
No need for speak more. We'll do it by law so just leave!
Just because you studied law for a bit, you keep bringing that up.
After all this time, I failed to understand you right away.
All this means, "give me money" right?
Wh-what?
I wonder how much you're plotting to take from us this time.
Well how much money do you even have?
Are you bragging about money in front of me? Huh?
Gosh, really. Aigoo, today, my pretty bills met such lowly people
and are suffering a lot.
Dong Joo. What do you want? Let her live or finish her?
I'm never going back into that house again, even if I die.
You heard, right?
- Lawyer Gook. - Yes. - What do we do in this situation?
As soon as she was married, everything started, the affair and the violence and verbal abuse of her husband and her in-laws. With this, divorce is natural
and we can even put you all in jail and have you rot for life.
Aigoo, they made my baby shed tears of blood and harmed her. That's not enough!
We should just spread the rumor to the whole world and humiliate them!
For now! For now, I'll leave.
Since you like the law, I'll get a lawyer, and we'll talk again then.
Until this get solved, you watch your mouth!
If false rumors start, I won't stand still.
You watch your mouth.
Shut the door tight!
Aigoo, Dong Joo.
Are you okay?
I sent her away, but I don't think this situation will get solved anytime soon.
I told Michael and I've been connected to a lawyer specializing in divorce and domestic violence.
You don't have to worry much, Sister.
I made it so that they can meet soon.
Give me the files first. I need to study.
If I want to escape Choi Dong Seok's suspicion, we'll need to make up a case first.
Okay. I'll look into it.
Hey!
What's this?
Hey, Watch. You really seemed like a lawyer back there.
Of course, because I am one.
"Who in this world deserves to get beaten and wouldn't care?"
Wow.
A humane lawyer. Good. Yes.
It's good, but...
The one with more feelings becomes the weaker person.
Don't be too emotional.
Did he finally acknowledge me as a lawyer?
You did well.
You guys sit comfortably.
You three. Raise your head and open up your shoulders.
When things go wrong with the children, it's the parent's fault.
- No it's not. - No, no.
This is not anyone's fault. Honey, you cheer up, too.
If anyone is to be blamed, it's my fault as the head of the household.
But even if I'm useless,
I'm still your father. Right?
Right. Even if the world flips over,
I'm still your mother.
And we're
family.
Right, right.
That's right.
While your father was away from home for a few days, I realized something.
Do you know the difference between a cave
and a tunnel?
A cave is blocked at the end, but a tunnel has a exit.
Our family is going through a tunnel right now.
Although we're only suffering, let's trust that
an exit is coming soon.
Well, once the winter passes, a flowery spring will come.
Let's gather up strength
and start again.
Got it?
When your parents and siblings are being a strong pillar, what is there to be afraid of? What can't you do?
- Um... - Yes, speak.
What is it?
Then... Creative--
- Shut it, you rascal! - Oppa!
- You little! - Are you out of your mind?
Kids! Come see me.
Hey. All of us, fighting.
I've watched you for a couple days.
Dal Ja's side is livable and smooth.
But Dal Soo's side, the way you're living,
there's so much to say and so much trouble.
I'm ashamed. It's because the head of household is lacking.
Dal Ja, in the meantime, you already started investigating my background.
Mom, about that--
Calling the Association of Korean Residents, the pastor, and such, and asked all kinds of things?
Dal Ja, why are you so suspicious?
A mother I thought was dead shows up after 50 years, talking about ₩20 billion ($20 million) inheritance.
Aren't you being stupid to believe that without any doubt?
That's true. It's understandable.
So as you looked into it, did you quench your curiousity?
Well...
Truthfully, how can we trust that you have ₩20 billion?
Do you have to see it to believe it?
Why would a parent swindle their children, or do they?
Our Madame Audrey is not that kind of person.
Dal Ja, why don't you put out the fire under Dal Soo's feet?
Stop this house from being auctioned away.
Why-why should I do that?
For a rich person, can't you take care of your son's matter?
It takes about 2 months to sort out my real estate bonds.
So you take care of it first,
and I'll pay you back in two months, with interest.
Lawyer Gook. Will two months be enough?
Yes?
Yes. Selling the bonds,
and the real estate... Yes, it'll be enough.
Grandmother.
We're saved.
How can I trust the money I haven't even seen, and just hand over that much money?
Aunt! Can't you just believe your Mother's words?
Hey! Would you believe it if you were me?
How much my assets are.
Should I let you know?
Grandma! I mean, Madame Audrey. That's...
Next Episode 3
If I just get hired, can I get the inheritance?
I'll need a chauffeur, who'll be one for me?
- Oh my! Did you just touch my body? - Me?
- Oh, did you get riled up? - Are you crazy?!
There's no better reason for a divorce than your spouse's affair.
You can get alimony from that.
I should put a rest to the doubts I had.
With a misunderstanding, I was chased out to America.
I'll need to reveal the truth now.
Why are you so suspicious?
What do you really know? Is everything Grandma saying all a lie?
