Temperature of Love (Degree of Love / Sarangui Ondo / 사랑의 온도)

You think it's all sunshine and rainbows for me?

Why are you thinking only of yourself?

I'm not thinking only of myself.

When I ask you where you are and you tell me

do you think I asked you because I wanted to know where you are?

I said that, whether we drown or freeze to death

I wanted to be with you, and proposed that we live together

but you said no.

I told you that I wanted to be part of your life

and hurt alongside you, so why did you kick me aside?

I told you that things are quite difficult

and that I have some history related to my family.

Do you think it's all a cakewalk for my family?

Every family has had their hardships!

You say it's difficult for you, but it could be not that difficult for me!

My mom and dad...

couldn't have kids until long after they got married

so their parents were quite worried about them.

And then, I was born.

I've had high expectations of me ever since I was young.

How do I tell her that my parents got married because my mom got pregnant?

My mom and dad...

made it a priority to ensure that we were independent when raising us.

And she didn't prioritize other people's opinions or her kids that much.

Sometimes, I was a bit disappointed because of that as a child.

My mom said that those who have the ability to give are the strongest people.

So she tries to be a really giving person.

Aren't you tired? Should I get down?

I'm fine.

When I was talking about my family

what he said was...

"I'm fine."

Why did you wash your hair at night?

Because I'm so frustrated.

This is why I don't date.

Give that here.

It's exhausting enough watching from the sidelines while others date.

I'm going to work until dawn.

I have a meeting with Joon Ha tomorrow, after all.

To be honest, living the way that Hong Ah does may be the best.

I haven't heard from her lately. What's she up to?

Straightening out my interpersonal relationships

and thriving on the number of followers she has on social media.

Working late at night. Staying up all night.

Working super hard. Debuting my miniseries.

There's no such thing as love.

Your photo is pretty. Follow for follow?

You thought I'd be sad without you, right?

And after all I did for them, too!

Why haven't you gone home yet?

I thought that maybe the heavens would make us luckier if I'm seen trying hard.

Let's straighten out our restaurant's accounts.

First, there's the 200 million won security deposit on the building--

And that's a security deposit, so we can't ask for it.

Oh, it would be so nice if I could just give you money at times like these!

What money would you have, when your family kicked you out?

They won't reject me forever. They'll accept me when the time comes.

I'll probably have to be successful by then, though.

Let's say we won't be seeing any profits for the time being.

How much do we need to stay open for the next six months?

Probably around 200 million won.

Wow, that's quite a lot.

How much did you get in loans?

Quite a bit, since it's in Pangyo.

And there's one more thing I have to take care of.

What else?

My mom's debt.

Ah.

Um... well...

I was a bit surprised when you said you wanted to see me.

I'm sure it's because you have business with me, though, of course.

Here.

This is the donation I got from CEO Park.

There's no need to repay him for this.

He gave this to me because he likes my paintings.

I'll be going now, then.

Wow, you've come to see me? What brings you here?

Come in, come in!

- Drink up. - I met with Professor Min.

Why?

Because I didn't think your estimate of your debt was accurate.

And I need to know exactly how much it is.

Geez, you're so inflexible.

It's okay for people who are close to impose on one another a little.

You can always pay them back later.

You're a chef with so much potential!

Why else would CEO Park have invested his money in you?

He invested in you because he saw potential in you.

He's the type of person who won't buy Professor Min's paintings

even though I kept nagging him to.

It wasn't a donation, then.

Donations are made based on

the donor's perception of the artist's talent.

The reason why I came here is to ask you what you're going to do now.

You said you're in debt because I didn't give you money.

So how much do you need every month?

You're going to give it to me?

I want to hear the amount first.

This place's noodles in black bean sauce is really good.

Are you paying for us?

You sure do love free food, Writer Hwangbo.

Kyung hates getting free stuff.

I feel like it was a really good decision for me to become friends with you.

What do you mean by that?

Because she knows me!

How long have you known me already, Director?

And yet, you don't even know things like this about me!

You're so shallow.

Um, hurry and eat up.

Aren't you going to Good Soup to do some research today?

You said that there were young, handsome chefs there.

They're closed today.

Geez. Wow.

Aren't you going on a date?

Date?

I told you, I'm working my butt off right now.

But I do have to visit him to do research.

Having you cake, and eating it, too?

Killing two birds with one stone!

It's me.

Where are you?

Oh, I came to meet up with Jung Woo.

I see.

Is your meeting going to end late?

I have to do some research on you, Chef Ohn Jung Seon.

It won't end late.

See you later, at Good Soup.

Okay.

Chef Ohn Jung Seon is here.

Bring us some tea.

Yes, Sir.

Take a seat.

You must be busy, so I'll get straight to the point.

I calculated how much money you lent to my mom.

And I included the money you donated to Professor Min.

But...

I can't repay all of this money in a lump sum.

I'd like to pay you back in monthly installments.

What if I say no?

If you say no...

Tell me what you want. I'll do my best to oblige you.

A relationship that is more persistent than one based on affection

is one that began because you were hand-picked by someone.

Let's go for the long haul.

Thanks.

This is something I should be thanking you for.

Hello?

I need to see you today. I'm on my way to you now.

Something urgent came up, so I have to push back our research session.

I'll call you when I'm done.

But I'm already here.

His car is here. So he didn't take his car, huh?

What kind of restaurant is closed on a Monday?

There are some preparations that need to be made to run the restaurant.

What brings you here?

What is this?

I told you not to sell that land.

But I didn't sell it.

You'll end up selling it, at this rate!

It's my land. I'll do as I wish.

It'll be more lucrative for you if you keep it.

I'm doing this for you!

Do I even exist in your life, Father?

Of course you do. You're my child, after all.

Why did you take out a secured loan?

Because I need it to run the restaurant.

Then you should be open every day! Why are you closed on a day like today?

I thought you were doing well since you were featured in a magazine.

I thought you were doing respectable work but it's obviously insubstantial.

This is why I was opposed to you pursuing cooking when you first brought it up!

It would've been so great if you'd gotten a specialized job!

You followed your mom out when she left

and she's completely ruined you.

I chose Mom because she was the weaker one.

Why are you so full of yourself

when you made your child choose between living with his mom or his dad?

Are you blaming me?

When I followed Mom to France, there were times I missed you.

But...

Because I didn't want to end up becoming someone like you

I hated myself for wanting to see you.

What's wrong with me?

Why don't you want to live like me?

I've lived a stable and ideal life!

You abused your wife!

Don't you think you're turning too much of a blind eye to your own life?

Chef?

Chef, I'm afraid there's been a complaint.

Are you going to come by today to do research?

I'm in the parking lot.

Where do you work, Honey?

This is usually my spot.

It's called the "pass."

Wait. I'm going to record you.

What's the "pass"?

"Pass" is another word for "road."

This is the "path" on which the chef finishes plating

and does the final inspections.

Something like that.

Oh. And what's this?
