Let's do a test.
(Episode 48)
A test?
There are two applicants for one position.
We shouldn't have anyone raising
doubts about fairness later,
so let's conduct a test, which is fair and square.
That's a good idea.
What do you think,
Mr. Yoon Suho and Ms. Oh Eunsu?
What kind of test?
How about a blind test
to identify the additives in doenjang?
Knowledge of doenjang will give you the upper hand.
What do you think?
You've lost this time.
Is this intended to kick me out?
What do you think? Please decide.
I'll do it.
Kim Bitna, I won't leave of my own accord.
Never.
I'll do the test.
Me, too. I'll give it a go.
Okay.
Let's not dally then.
We'll hold the test this Friday to decide.
Okay.
You can do well, right?
I won't go easy on you.
I'm confident of my taste buds, if nothing else.
I know.
Do you think you can beat me?
Why aren't you answering me?
Oh. You must be scared already.
You're right. I have zero confidence.
Did you throw in the towel already?
Where are the guts you showed in there?
I didn't say I was giving up.
I'm going to do it.
I'll do it and stay on at Yoon Ga Food.
Happy now?
That's the spirit.
But after you told me to trust you, this is it?
"I'll give it a go, too"?
I should've known.
Shame on me for trusting a man like you, right?
But...
We're going into overtime thanks to what I said.
This matter hasn't been wrapped up yet.
Trust me.
I'm telling you to trust me.
Fine. Let's go.
So... What happened?
No decision has been made.
They'll do a taste test to decide.
Is this why they say blood is thicker than water?
What do you mean?
Huh? Nothing.
Mr. Yoon, congratulations in advance.
What is this?
One might think I'd already greased their palms.
You're a much better taster than Ms. Oh.
I think this will be an uphill battle for you.
No.
I'll work on my sense of taste starting today.
I can do it.
Seonyeong, it's almost 7 p.m.
Shouldn't you go and make dinner?
After I finish this.
I have it under control.
You get back to work.
Do you have a fairy godmother at home?
What are you talking about?
This has been rather fishy.
You go out a lot, but the house is spic and span,
and the laundry isn't backed up.
You have a fairy godmother, right?
Fairy godmothers don't exist.
That's silly.
But housekeepers exist.
Don't you know how Beomgyu is?
A housekeeper is out of the question.
Geez. I've been working hard
in the morning so that I can relax a bit.
Fine.
I'll go. I'll go.
Yeonmi, I'm off to make dinner.
- Okay. Come hang out again. / - Okay.
Oh. Hello, ma'am.
Oh, my. Who's this?
Nice to see you.
What brings you here?
I came to see my mom.
My mom runs a laundry service here.
Laundry service?
Right here.
This is your mom's laundry service?
Yes.
Ah, I see.
What brings you here?
I was just passing by.
See you.
Goodbye.
My goodness. She's Yeonmi's daughter?
So it was at Yoon Ga that she got a job?
That Yeonmi.
She knew but was playing dumb.
Hey, hey, Suho.
That intern in your department...
It turns out that she's my friend's daughter.
Ms. Oh Eunsu?
Yes. Her name is Oh Eunsu?
Right. Her husband's family name was Oh.
So it must be her.
Ms. Oh is really your friend's daughter?
Yes.
I just found out, and what a shocker.
But I wonder why she quit teaching.
It's just a great profession.
Who?
Oh Eunsu.
Ms. Oh was a teacher?
She taught either high school or middle school,
but she quit for some reason.
I heard she got a job, and it turns out
that it was at our company.
How amusing.
Anyway, don't tell Ms. Oh that her mom is my friend.
Just play dumb.
Why?
My friend hasn't said anything,
so I don't want to embarrass her.
What do you mean?
You see, we went to both
middle school and high school together, and...
Never mind the past.
Anyway, she boasted her daughter was a teacher,
and now she's just a lowly intern at our company.
I'm back.
Oh, hi, hi.
So she was a teacher.
It's nice to see you come home together.
Why are you home so early?
I begged him to come home.
Good job. Good job.
What about dinner?
We should eat.
Go up and change clothes.
I'll get dinner ready.
You're home early, too.
Yes.
Suho, you must win.
What are you talking about?
There'll be a test for a permanent staff position.
Between Suho and a female intern,
only one person will get it.
A female intern? You mean Oh Eunsu?
Do you know Ms. Oh Eunsu well?
Of course.
Oh, my. So only one of them will pass?
So it'll be Suho or Oh Eunsu?
Yes.
Suho, you win.
You must win.
My pride is at stake,
although they don't know you're my son.
But win for my sake.
- Okay? Got it? / - Geez.
Suho, you know I'm on your side, too, right?
Do win.
Go, my son.
Mother,
please be mindful of how you cook until the test.
MSG and spicy foods are bad for the palate.
Yes, okay.
Bitna, help Suho however you can at work.
I will.
Director Kim Bitna.
I'm your sister-in-law at home, Suho.
I know that,
but treat me as an employee until after the test.
I don't want special treatment as family.
Even if I pass, I want it to be on my merit alone.
And mom, you shouldn't be like that.
What kind of friend are you?
Geez. Doenjang just tastes like doenjang.
This is salty, and so is this.
But the saltiness does seem a bit different.
Man. Stupid doenjang.
Idea. Idea.
What is there?
I need something new. Something new.
The world's last mermaid threatened with extinction
falls in love with a genius con man...
That would be plagiarism. No.
Something new. Something new.
A goblin who wants to become mortal...
Man. I've watched too much TV.
Geez. What can I do?
Hello?
Yes, hello.
Oh, really?
My proposal went through?
Yes. Go with the female urologist storyline,
so please hurry.
Yes. I'll get right to it.
Yes. Thank you.
Yes, yes.
Wait.
I lack background material.
Oh.
Dr. Yoon, don't you have a stethoscope?
Urologists use ultrasound more than stethoscopes,
because the kidneys and bladder...
Oh. Our kidneys flush out toxins
from our body in the form of urine.
You know what a bladder is, right?
Yes.
The ultrasound is used to make diagnoses,
do biopsies, and perform medical procedures.
Ms. Yoon, I mean, Dr. Yoon,
that's so cool.
Ms. Yoon, just a moment.
So you haven't been circumcised yet.
Yes. I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt.
It stings a bit when you get anesthetized.
But it's bearable,
so don't worry.
So this is vacation homework?
Yes.
We must interview a professional for a report.
- Make it sound cool. / - Yes.
Just a second.
Yes, hello?
Dr. Yoon, it's me.
Yes. What is it?
Are you free for dinner?
Why?
I have something to discuss.
I'll treat you to a delicious dinner.
What do you think?
Not interested.
We're not chummy enough for a dinner for two,
and I have an important prior engagement.
I have to go.
Your dad's okay with you guys eating out, right?
Yes.
Who sent you such pretty flowers?
Oh. It's a New Year's gift from a customer.
How fishy.
A basket of flowers, of all things?
Is it a man?
No. Stop being ridiculous.
Oh, right.
I forgot about a delivery up the road.
Mother,
is she really not dating anyone?
No.
She doesn't lie to me about such things.
Really? Then that's good.
I was asked to play matchmaker for someone.
Yeonmi would be perfect.
She's beautiful and capable,
and her kids are all grown up.
She's a great catch.
I doubt Yeonmi would be interested.
Is he a good guy?
Yes.
He's top husband material in the remarriage market.
Please feel her out.
She just won't listen to me.
I'll ask.
But she's naive and not interested in that.
Geez, Ms. Kim.
You're so apathetic toward her.
It's been years since she was widowed.
She may not show it, but she must be so lonely.
I'm off.
Oh? Where?
To volunteer.
Let's talk tonight at home.
About what?
Let's just talk here, mom.
No, later.
See you.
Why is she so down all of a sudden?
Did something happen?
No. I didn't say anything.
My goodness. Are you cleaning or not?
Here. Take a coffee break.
Oh, my. Thank you.
All she knows how to do is talk down to people.
She can't even clean.
Do a better job.
What a waste of a life.
Like this. Do it like this.
I missed that.
Show me again.
How do I do it?
You'd better watch it, old woman.
All your brain does is scheme and connive.
You ought to be repentant
if you're doing community service for a crime.
Watch it!
Shame on you.
Make sure you clean properly!
So hot. So hot.
It's all over the floor.
Mop this up.
Mop it up yourself.
How unrefined.
What? Unrefined?
How ridiculous.
Even a dog would find you laughable.
Excuse me?
You don't have an iota of refinement in you.
Do you think having money is everything?
Good grief. How ignorant.
What? Ignorant?
Fine. I'm ignorant.
So what, you old hag?
So what, you old hag?
What's the matter with you two?
Stop it. Stop it.
Stop it. What are you doing?
Oh, my goodness.
Ow, my eye. My eye.
Are you okay?
Ow, ow. It hurts.
Oh, no. Are you okay?
Ow, my eye. I got hit in the eye.
Ow, ow, ow. It hurts.
Ow, ow, ow.
You should know better
than to keep stirring up trouble.
Right.
I keep to myself, but they keep
provoking me and picking fights.
But still, you should be careful.
Don't you know that you're on probation?
Do you know what happens if I report you?
You'll be incarcerated immediately.
I'll go to prison?
Yes.
I swear it was an accident.
That weird-looking old hag
beat and harassed helpless old me.
So I accidentally raised my arm
like this in self-defense.
I had no idea I'd hit her in the eye.
I swear.
I'm incapable of lying.
I mean it.
Whether or not it was an accident,
if she sues you,
there's nothing I can do.
What can I do?
I'll do whatever you say.
Please let this go.
I beg you.
We should get going.
Let's call it a day.
- Yes. / - Yes.
Ms. Oh, aren't you leaving?
Go ahead.
I'll leave in a little bit.
See you tomorrow. Have a good evening.
Okay. Take it easy then, Ms. Oh.
Let's go.
Mr. Yoon, see you tomorrow.
Cucumber.
Hot pepper.
Eggplant.
Yesan doenjang.
(Jinyang Doenjang)
Ah, it's Jinyang doenjang.
Rice starch, malt.
You haven't left yet?
I couldn't get myself to leave.
Here.
Let's do this Spartan style.
Pardon?
You're the student.
And I'm the tutor.
Is this a joke?
Do you know how a baby learns to talk?
50,000 times.
Someone said a baby can
repeat a word after hearing it 50,000 times.
Do you know how a baby learns to talk?
50,000 times.
A baby can repeat a word after
hearing it 50,000 times.
You expect me to do this 50,000 times?
You're telling me to taste these 50,000 times?
Can you do that?
Are you crazy?
I'm going crazy, too.
We have no time,
so repetition is the only way to save
your dysfunctional taste buds.
Just taste, feel,
and memorize.
Here. Try this.
- This? / - Yes.
Don't just eat it.
Feel it with your tongue,
and smell it as well.
Watch.
Didn't you catch the crisp tanginess?
I suppose so.
I can taste the tanginess,
although I don't know what's in it.
Then I bet it's Yesan doenjang.
Look.
(Yesan Doenjang)
Right?
Wash that out with water.
Next, try this.
You must be able to identify it by smell.
- Like this? / - Yes.
This one is just salty.
I don't ever see him these days.
Is he busy?
Is he sick?
(Park Yeonmi)
You're home.
Hi.
Don't you go to the gym anymore?
I'm having some muscle pain,
so I'm taking time off.
I see. Take it easy.
Aren't you eating dinner?
I have no appetite.
I'm going in to rest.
Okay, mother.
Mister, you're not sick, right?
I haven't seen you at the gym in a while.
Just sending my regards.
He's not answering
my call or text message.
I hope he's okay.
What's wrong with me?
Why do I care so much?
I get the feeling I might be holding you back.
You call me mom, and I consider you my daughter,
but we're not a real mother and daughter.
I'm being a burden, keeping a good catch like you
from getting a fresh start.
Mom, I'm home.
When did you get back?
Just now.
Mom, my feelings are hurt.
Why?
I heard you from out there.
How can you say such a thing?
Are we a fake mother and daughter?
No. That's not what I meant.
Myeongju said there's an eligible bachelor.
Did she tell you?
You're not keeping me from getting a fresh start.
I'll get married if I find someone nice.
So you should meet this guy.
I'll figure that out.
Mom, look at me when we talk. Okay?
Mom. Mom.
Mom, what happened to your face? Huh?
Someone hit me accidentally
where I do volunteer work.
I'm fine.
Did you see a doctor?
I'm fine.
I was seeing stars until just now,
but I'm fine now.
Who on earth did this to you?
Someone.
You don't need to know.
I'm telling you that I'm fine. I'm fine.
Mom, please don't think you're a burden.
What did I tell you?
You give me strength, the strength to live.
I can't live without you.
So you must live a long and healthy life with me.
Yes, I know. Of course.
Thank you.
So it'll be decided at tomorrow's test, right?
Yes.
Hey, Suhyeon,
Suho is your little brother.
Suho must be the one to pass.
If you're going to spew nonsense,
go to bed instead.
Geez. Did I say something wrong?
Blood runs thicker than water.
Forget about that. Be fair.
Yes, of course.
You, too, Bitna.
Yes, father.
But still...
Zip it.
Ta-da.
Good grief.
How could she doze off after just that?
(Mine)
What are you doing?
I was watching you sleep.
Hello?
Hi, Eunho.
I'm at work. I was just leaving.
Where?
With Hyeongsik?
I'll be there. Okay.
Here you go.
It's late. We should go.
Don't be a two-timer.
What?
When did I do that?
Plus, we're not even going out.
And I've never done that.
Oh.
Hello.
Eunsu...
Nice to see you again.
Geez. Why the buzzkill?
Please give us 2 more of the same.
Sure.
How have you been?
Hi.
What is this?
I didn't bring him.
I told him not to come, but he insisted.
We live close by,
and what's the harm in being friends?
Let's bury the hatchet.
Yeah, right.
Thank you.
Eunsu, you like this, right?
Yes. Thank you.
Are the kids asleep?
Of course.
Let's drink. Okay.
- Cheers. / - Cheers.
(Mine)
What's that on your hand?
It's nothing.
Don't look at me like that.
You're blinding me.
Eunsu.
No. Absolutely not.
What's the matter with you?
They're getting the wrong idea.
What wrong idea?
Eunsu used to look like a squid to me,
but now,
she looks like the Little Mermaid.
What should I do?
Cut it out, will you?
I'll go wash this off.
It's permanent marker.
Geez. Don't go.
Forget about it.
It won't wash off.
Stop.
Don't touch my hand. What's with you?
I didn't hold your hand.
I'll get it off for you.
Then just leave it.
What I'm seeing is
a couple that's just started dating.
Are you really a writer?
How can that...
No. No way.
(Assistant Manager Park Hyeona)
Assistant Manager Park Hyeona?
Hello?
Nothing. Just hanging out.
What do you want, Ms. Park?
Why would you worry about me?
I can handle it.
Yes.
I'm very busy right now, so I have to go.
Okay.
Man, she's clingy like a leech.
It's annoying how forward she's been lately.
Mr. Yoon, you're so full of yourself.
Do you have delusions of grandeur?
But you've seen how she acts.
To you, she barks,
"Ms. Oh Eunsu!"
To me, she coos,
"Mr. Yoon."
It gives me the willies.
Do you know how often she texts me?
Do you want to see?
That startled me.
Isn't your test tomorrow?
What? Yes.
Then why are you drinking?
Hyeongsik, let's go.
Oh, okay.
Where are you going?
Eunsu, let's go.
Mr. Yoon, let's say goodbye here.
See you tomorrow.
But... Eunsu!
Thank you for the drinks.
Wait... $58...
Let's go Dutch!
We will now start the test.
Taste the doenjang
and write down the names
and additional ingredients on the clipboard.
You may start.
(Fermented Doenjang Taste Test)
Here.
How did it go?
Here. Check for yourself.
We have the result.
Regrettably, it came down to a 1-point difference.
Ms. Oh Eunsu
and Mr. Yoon Suho.
Did you really make all of this?
- Yes. / - They're store-bought, right?
Now it's a problem that my food tastes good?
This is the way to live.
Please go easy on me.
How much do you want?
How much?
Get ready for jail.
I can't go to jail at my age.
Grant me a wish.
A wish?
Go on a date with me tomorrow.
Something is off today.
You're being way too nice.
I have something to say to you.
