A Good Supper (Be A Meal / Babi Dweeora / 밥이 되어라)

I loved exploring the city with you.

It's so fun to decide what I should buy when I get paid.

Working and earning money is so much cooler than I thought.

It is at first.

When I get paid,

I should buy that with a three-month payment plan!

I need to buy makeup too.

Are you going to spend everything you earn?

Of course I'm going to save too.

Are you hungry?

Let's eat out before going home today.

Okay.

- This looks delicious. - Definitely.

This restaurant is so good! Have a bite.

Really?

I think they have a secret sauce.

After working as a cook, I can't just eat a meal like before.

You can't?

I'm going to work so hard and become a great chef.

Now that you're working, do you like it?

Are you kidding?

It's helping my confidence. I love it.

Hurry and eat.

Should I chase her out right away,

or should I fire her after her intern period is over?

If she's getting fired anyway, isn't it best to be...

fired sooner than later so as to go somewhere else?

Your uncle is obsessed with Young Shin's beef hot pot.

He's eaten it three times since it's been on the lunch menu.

He really seems to like it.

How could she make it taste so good?

During the presentation before the tasting three years ago,

I did make a note of it.

Then let's try it that way.

Does this look similar?

- Try it. - Okay.

It seems similar,

but the ending note isn't quite right.

What else do I need to put in it?

This is so frustrating.

I bet the secret is in the broth.

Mrs. Choi, did you call me?

I think I've seen you helping Young Shin when she stays late,

and it's nice to see.

Thank you.

Let me be frank.

I need the recipe for Young Shin's beef hot pot.

Could you help me with that?

What do you mean by that?

If you help, you won't have to worry about being hired permanently.

If it's too much, just ask her on the sly how she makes the broth.

Seeing how close you are, I doubt she'd be suspicious of that.

I don't think I can help you with that.

I'm sorry.

You can't help?

I'll be on my way out.

I won't tell Young Shin...

that you asked me this, so don't worry.

Why are kids these days all like that?

She hasn't tasted the bitters of life yet.

What did Mrs. Choi ask you about?

What? It's nothing.

It's not worth worrying about.

Let's just work.

Okay, now we just have to check these things before we leave, right?

Yes.

The plates and cooking equipment are all organized.

Faucets, done.

I should check that the induction burners are all shut off.

I'll go check.

It's time to check the kitchen safety before I leave.

Don't worry. Just clock out.

Then I'll be on my way.

Kim Young Shin!

I guess he's been waiting all this time!

He has nothing else to do. Don't look back.

He seems really serious about this.

What's he going to do even if he's serious?

He's so full of himself!

The more I see him, he doesn't seem to be completely full of himself.

Look, he's still staring at you.

Let's go!

Go and talk to him!

He won't listen to me!

I'm starting to be afraid of my own son!

Lately, you've been so consumed by the family inheritance...

that you were completely oblivious to raising our son.

I guess your son is settling the account...

based on how Madame Seo Min Gyung led her life.

I'm telling you, it's a betrayal!

It probably wouldn't hurt this much if you betrayed me.

Haven't I been a meaningless existence in your life for a while?

Now that I've experienced this,

I can see I can't take this rationally.

You say that as if you've been so rational all your life.

Young Shin, you'll never have my son!

I don't know how I feel.

I'm not happy that she's being punished,

and I've never wished for her to live happily,

but I don't feel right with this for some reason.

She's so sick.

I bet she's very worried about Jung Hoon.

Now she's worried about him, but she had left us.

People always realize things when it's too late.

I'm afraid that she'll visit again.

I don't know how to face her.

You never know if you'll see her again.

You can just treat her like that.

I still don't feel ready to forgive her.

She's acting like she's so busy, saying she's sorry and leaving.

What's this all about?

There was a song a long time ago.

Life is incomplete.

An unfinished poem.

A song stopped in the middle.

The song ends so suddenly.

How urgent could it be?

That's what life is.

So, after his wife and son went to the sky, he was in a daze.

The deer said there's a bucket in the pond,

so go up to the sky with the bucket.

The deer is the problem.

The deer was the one who said to hide the fairy's clothes!

Why did it say such nonsense in the first place?

How was the lumberjack supposed to go on living?

You could say the deer is a bit irresponsible.

So, after they went to the sky,

he came back down since he was worried about his mom?

So, the fairy gave him a horse...

and he rode it down to the ground,

but she said he must not get off the horse.

Did she just want him to see his mom's face and come back?

But, the, what was it?

The red bean porridge.

That's right, the red bean porridge!

Why did the lumberjack suddenly eat the red bean porridge?

His mother made it because her son likes it.

Right, that's right!

But the red bean porridge was so hot...

that he was eating it on the horse's back and spilled it on the horse.

Oh, my!

It was so hot that the horse jumped around,

and the lumberjack fell off the horse!

Then the horse went to the sky by itself.

What a tragedy, in the end.

Is the horse going to the sky the end?

Was that the end?

No, there's more.

There's really more?

Yes.

So, the lumberjack...

became a chicken.

A chicken? You made that up, didn't you?

No, he really became a chicken!

That's why every morning chickens look at the sky...

and cry so sadly.

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Finally, the chicken finished the story.

That story's longer than I thought.

You said you'd make the lumberjack go back to the sky.

Why? Okay.

Next time, I'll tell it again so he returns to the sky.

"The Fairy and the Lumberjack" ends with a chicken?

What do fairies and chickens have to do with each other?

Whether they're related or not, it ends with a chicken.

I bet it only ends like that in our neighborhood.

Why does it matter how it ends?

That's life.

Now when I see a chicken at the market,

"He was the lumberjack!"

I should think like that.

- Did you like the story? - Yes!

Then let's look at the sky...

and say, "cock-a-doodle-doo!"

Cock-a-doodle-doo!

Sure, it's your day off, but the sun is almost setting.

Come here.

Take a look at this picture.

What's this?

He works at a conglomerate. His father's a professor. How's he?

- I'm not interested. - Why not?

Why did you sign up on that weird matchmaking website...

to annoy me every once in a while?

I need some hope to keep on living.

You're telling me to get married to help you beat menopause?

Can't you?

Mom, isn't that a bit too much to ask?

It's because of my age.

What do we have to offer anyone?

Why don't we have anything?

Looking at it objectively,

your father's an elementary teacher,

your mother's an employee at a clothing store.

You graduated from a countryside college,

and you're working as an intern with no certain future.

Nobody will be interested if you get older.

The world has changed, Mother.

Don't say anything that will upset the women's rights activists!

Where are you going without even washing up?

I'm just going to meet Young Shin. Why should I wash up?
