Coming!
Wallet. Where's my wallet?
Hi, I'm your real estate agent.
What? Real estate?
Your mom put this house up for rent two days ago.
We're here for house viewing.
No, no, no.
- It won't take long. - No, no, no.
- What? - Mom?
What's this house viewing?
- I put the house up for rent. - Why didn't you tell me?
You didn't bother to reply to my text for over a week.
That's because of your nonsense. How can I run your place alone?
Unless you run this place while I'm away or you move out.
Mom.
- This house is not for rent! - I've got to go.
This house is not for rent!
Your food is here.
Thank you.
Can't you just close up shop?
You said the business is bad anyway.
Right, I close up shop and you move out.
Mom, I paid one-third of the deposit here.
Remember?
- Cover for me or move out. - Mom, don't do this to me.
You are so unfair.
No more conversation. You must come here tonight.
I have things to do.
Yeah, your games.
- Check, please. - Okay.
Gosh!
How dare you smoke here?
SINNARA GIMBAP SEAWEED RICE ROLLS
The extended COVID-19 situation made people eat out less,...
...which overburdens small business owners.
While the income decreases, they still have rent and interest to pay.
It turns out that seven out of ten owners...
...are considering business closure.
Isn't it burnt?
But their workers and suppliers must be affected too.
- Yes. Naturally... - I can do that.
...small businesses are directly hit by falling sales.
And they will try to find a way to cut any and all costs.
I see.
See? Do it yourself.
- Me? - Try.
Let me do it again.
Spread the rice thinly.
- It's thin. - Use your fingertips.
Spread rice up to here.
Not enough rice.
- More rice? - It's hopeless.
I'll close up shop and put your house up for rent.
I'm here to do it.
Then do better.
This is my first time, mom.
Carrots.
They all look the same.
Dried anchovies for stir-fry.
It can't be wrong.
Are you a newcomer? Please come in.
Mom?
Here you go.
I'm here for this?
It's just sesame oil.
Do I have to be here for this?
It's not just sesame oil.
It's the secret of Sinnara Gimbap.
Add it to rice.
Spread it when you finish rolling.
- Got it? - Yes.
When you come next time,...
...bring your grandma's favorite videotape.
- Of my childhood? - Yes.
It can't be at my place. It must be at yours.
It isn't.
Check out your wardrobe.
I'll look.
- And we meet in two days. - Yeah.
- Bye. - Bye.
Hey, I used to go to swim meets.
- Here's your stir-fried pork. - Thank you.
- Good night. - Good night.
You came.
Someone at a gimbap place ordered my homemade gimbap.
Because I heard that your gimbap is so yummy.
Have you eaten?
Not yet.
You head-and-tail eater.
You finished all the ends of the rolls.
The anchovies are too sweet.
Can't we take it off the menu?
Your version is spicy but mine gets sweet.
Use less starch syrup. A lot less.
The cheese gimbap is okay.
Why don't we just remove anchovy gimbap from the menu?
Nonsense.
Practice more.
You said "more syrup" at first. You say "less syrup" now.
Call me when you get there.
Stop ordering meal delivery.
- Always wear your mask. - I will.
And quit smoking while you run the business.
I will.
Is grandma very ill?
- Let's hope not. - There's a cab.
- Can you carry it? - Yes.
Careful.
To the bus terminal, please.
Goodbye.
- Go home. Take care. - I will.
Wait, Ju-ri!
I almost forgot.
I was cooking for grandma...
- ...and I made some for you. - Side dishes?
Guess!
- Go. - Okay.
- Bye. - Bye.
You can start now.
TEMPORARY MENU
Hi.
Bye.
Ju-ri?
Hey, you shouldn't smoke in front of your place.
Excuse me?
I'm Auntie Chun-ja. From the bakery.
Oh, hello.
- How's business? - It's going.
Here you go.
- Is this your bread? - Yes.
Let me know what you like.
Thank you.
Would you like some gimbap?
- Gimbap? - Or ramyeon.
I'll come back for lunch tomorrow.
Bye now.
- Keep up the good work. - Goodbye.
You look great.
- Ramyeon with cheese for you. - Thank you.
Enjoy.
Hi, mom.
Ju-ri.
I see you in the living room. Where's grandma?
She is sleeping. How was business today?
It was okay. Everyone asked about you.
Really? But I already told my regulars.
Everything okay?
Maybe I shouldn't tell them I'm your daughter.
They talk too much.
Some complained that it tasted different.
Maybe it's because you used the wrong dried anchovies.
I know.
But I did use less starch syrup.
Oh, the lady from the bakery came by.
She'll come back for lunch tomorrow.
I asked her to check up on you.
You should visit the bakery and buy their stuff.
I liked their red bean bread.
I heard that you smoked again.
I smoked outside. I was far out.
Smoking outside is still smoking.
Really, can't you quit while you're doing this?
I get it.
Okay. I won't smoke, okay?
I promise.
You're hopeless.
Mom, you have a regular who comes every morning, right?
Lee-won?
- Yes. - Did you take care of him?
Does he never talk?
Mostly. He is a good kid, though.
He seems to be studying.
I don't know much about him.
But the boy has a good heart and looks nice to me.
When you weren't answering my text or call,...
...he helped me out.
He did?
Anyway, good job today, Ms. Kim Ju-ri.
Right. How's Grandma?
She is sleeping.
I mean, you're there. Send me her photos.
You only miss your grandma?
Would I miss you, mom?
Okay. I'll send you some photos.
Okay, go to bed now. You must be tired.
Okay.
- I'm so tired. - It's good to talk to you.
- Good night. - Sleep tight.
Okay.
Bye.
Check out the delivered food supplies.
Put down chairs. Sweep the floor once again.
