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

"I hope the day ends peacefully."

Is that what you're thinking?

Sorry?

What are you thinking about so intently?

It's nothing.

I try not to think.

I shouldn't have found out about it.

I'll do it today. Go in and get some rest.

It's not because I don't want to make dinner.

That's never been a problem.

Are you thinking about Mrs. Choi?

Why was I born as her son?

And how did she end up like that?

Not all mothers seem to have a motherly instinct.

Did she come and bother you because I didn't go to work?

She talked about a lot of nonsense.

Why did she say?

It's just so absurd.

How could she be so reckless with all the years behind her?

I guess you're getting into fishing.

Young Shin.

How do you feel about moving downtown?

Why would you say that?

Well, it's far from work.

I'm not going to the restaurant. What do you mean?

You're too young to settle down in the countryside.

I'll only see people and cars downtown.

Here I can see mountains and waters, feel the wind,

and I have you.

I don't want to leave this place.

We don't have any fish today.

It's because the wind burst.

The wind burst?

That's how anglers say it.

Try to draw a picture.

The wind will form a cluster then burst.

I like that expression.

You sound like an angler.

Mr. Jung.

I don't think a person needs many things in life.

You're too young to think that way.

When I took a cab,

I saw many drawings of a cherub wishing for a safe day...

that drivers hung up.

A lot of cabs in the country had them.

I work hard to earn money to pay for our expenses...

and end an exhausting day, being thankful that it went by well.

That's all I need.

Do you think that'd be enough?

Of course, what else do I need as long as you're there?

Mr. Jung, even if a war were to break out, I could live if you're there.

We could flee far away to the seaside,

open a stall at the port,

and start a squid rice soup business.

Squid rice soup?

For the fishermen who were out to fish fighting the cold and waves all night,

I'll sell a hot and spicy bowl of squid rice soup and soju.

You said there was a war.

It's about when people get back to their livelihood after the war.

The fishermen would say the rice soup is so delicious...

because of the pretty new bride.

Are you the new bride?

Sure.

Who is the husband, then?

Wouldn't I be with someone by then?

So you do have plans to get married.

The problem is that with you, I'm always smiling.

What's wrong?

Mrs. Choi, I can't do that.

I will decide whether you can do it or not.

Young Shin won't take it.

You think she is now?

How could I start such a rumor about Mr. Jung and Young Shin?

Forget it, then.

Mrs. Choi, tell me something else.

I'd be punished for that.

I'll take the punishment.

You should just do as I say.

I'm not forcing you.

Forget it if you don't want to.

Come to work.

Are you here to say that again?

You...

Do you want me to start weird rumors about you and Mr. Jung?

- What? - That's what Mrs. Choi told me to do.

She said someone in town has to start a rumor like that.

You must be insane.

So stop insisting and come to work.

If I don't get back to work, are you going to start this rumor?

I have no choice.

Mr. Jung.

What is it?

It's nothing.

What's wrong?

Didn't you just see Da Jung?

Did she say something again?

No, she didn't.

We have cuttlefish. Do you want a beer?

No, I'll go to bed early today.

Young Shin, what brings you here?

Mr. Lee, there's been a problem.

What's wrong? Your face turned pale.

Mr. Lee, what do we do about Da Jung?

Tell me what happened.

Did Da Jung really say she was starting these rumors?

It's not just about me getting back to work.

To adopt Mr. Jung into that family,

Mrs. Choi would do anything.

Welcome. Do you have a reservation?

Which way is the kitchen?

The kitchen?

Are you here for the sanitary inspection?

The kitchen is too busy as it's dinnertime.

Come in tomorrow morning.

Where is the kitchen?

Sir, may I help you?

Are you Mrs. Choi Sook Jung?

Yes, I am. Who would you be?

Lee Da Jung is my daughter.

Oh, I see.

I've wanted to invite you for...

I want my child here.

It's working hours.

I know about the relationship...

between you and Gyung Soo.

- Call Da Jung from the kitchen. - Yes.

I will have the decency to talk to you for Gyung Soo's sake.

Don't do things like that with my daughter.

I didn't bring her up, the apple of my eye,

so people like you would use her.

I don't understand.

I've worked as a teacher my whole life in this community...

and did whatever it took to protect my students.

I had to deal with people like you...

to protect them.

If you ignore what I've said,

you'll be making a big mistake.

Dad!

Let's go home.

This place isn't worth spending your precious youth.

Da Jung's father said that?

From the look in his eyes, he's not an ordinary man.

It's people like him...

who helped Young Shin grow up so properly.

What did you ask Da Jung to do?

You don't need to know.

What did you order her to do that would make her father come here?

I said, you don't need to know.

Dad, why would you come to my workplace like this?

What does it mean to you to be a father?

I haven't even changed. What are you doing?

Stop right there!

Choosing not to forgive you...

is being your father at this moment!

I'll need to take the handbag.

I'll tell your mom to come to get it later!

After this moment,

you won't be able to take one step in that restaurant!

I won't forgive you!

It's looking too dangerous lately.

When wasn't it dangerous?

I think the end is near.

The end?

Jung Gyung Soo won't be able to keep quiet...

for much longer.

How long are you going to call him Jung Gyung Soo?

He's your cousin.

That's true.

I won't be able to tell your uncle Jong Gwon...

that he's my son very easily.

Do you think so?

It's strange to have a parent-child relationship.

After calling myself his mother,

I feel different.

I want to make any excuse possible to approach him again,

and I want to talk to him again.

I can understand what you mean.

When I see that young man...

stuck cooking in a rural diner,

it breaks my heart.

Even if...

I am punished and die,

I will make my son Kang Jong Gwon's son...

and have my son inherit his fortune.

Why are you dressed like that?

You came home wearing that?

Ask Dad.

Da Jung!

Go stay with your grandmother for a while.

If you so much as step outside her house,

just know I'll punish you.

How old do you think I am?

If you're not going to listen to me, leave this house.

Leave and don't step foot in front of me again.

Do you think I'm afraid of you?

Even if you hear the news that I've died,

don't even come to my funeral.

What I'm saying is...

I regret having you.

Honey!
