Protect The Family (Save The Family / 가족을 지켜라 / Gajokeul Jikyeora)

Open this gate!

Mom, please don't be like this! / - Open up!

Get out of my way.

Open up! Open up!

Don't open the gate! / - Open up!

No! Mom, please. Mom!

Mom! Please, mom!

What will you say to my mother-in-law?

Don't stop me!

Mom. Mom. Mom!

Episode 4

It's so late. What are you doing?

What were you doing?

Why would you leave my son at the gate

not letting him into the house?

Is my son a homeless person?

It's not what you think.

I was right there.

I saw and heard everything.

I know exactly what to think.

What's going on, mother?

That's what I'd like to know.

Why don't you tell us, Jeongsuk?

It's sad enough Taejin has to live with you.

How can you lock him out like a bum,

making him beg you to let him in?

I know now how poorly

he's been treated here,

the pain and suffering he's had to endure!

Is it true?

It's a long story.

Good grief.

It must be a misunderstanding.

Why don't you take a seat first?

Have you been drinking?

Yes. There was an office dinner.

This is just ridiculous.

Is anyone out there to lend me a ear?

The husband is made to cook and clean

while the wife comes home drunk!

Calm down, mom.

It's not like he's fit to do anything else.

What did you say?

And do you treat your husband with respect?

What do you know? Huh?

Mom. Mom.

Listen, Suja.

You should feel shameful and grateful

that I feed your jobless son.

How dare you come here and cause a scene?

Did I just hear that right?

Taejin,

go get your things.

Mom.

Why should my precious son put up with this?

I won't let you stay with a family like this.

Let's go.

Subin, you come with us.

Why are you taking Subin?

Her family name is Jeong,

so of course we're taking her.

She's not going anywhere

when her mother's right here.

Please calm down, mother.

I can't let my son or grandchild stay here.

Let's go, Subin.

Mom. / - You too, Taejin.

No, mother. No.

Come on.

Come with nana, Subin.

We need to talk, mom.

Come on, Subin.

Get Subin. / - Dad!

Daddy will be right back.

Subin. Come on out, Subin.

We need to talk. / - Come, Subin.

Taxi. Taxi. / - You come with me then.

I can't leave you here.

Hang on. / - I'm not going.

Please, mom.

I'm not going. I can't.

Just get in. / - You come with me.

Just get in. / - You come with me.

I'm not coming with you.

Come with me. Please?

Just forget what you saw today.

Got it?

Sangdo-dong, please.

Taejin.

Bye, mom.

Bye, mom.

I'm doing fine, so don't worry about me.

Go on.

Dad!

Hey, Subin.

You must've been scared.

Everything's okay now. / - Has mother left?

Yes.

How dare she come here and cause a scene?

Is it because I have no husband?

That's not true, mother.

How would anyone dare disrespect you?

You have something better than a husband.

You have money.

Family background does matter in a marriage.

But despite my opposition,

you had to go and get...

Mom!

Subin's right here.

That was just wrong of her.

She should treat her son-in-law like a son!

How could she lock him out?

I'm so appalled and upset, father.

What's the point of having all that money

when she lacks basic decency?

I never cared much for the way Jeongsuk

is always flaunting her wealth.

What did Taejin say?

He kept quiet with his tail between his legs.

We must make him move back in with us.

It'll kill me if he has to stay there!

There's no room here for Taejin and his family.

Manjae's right.

We don't have a spare room.

Remember the old days?

An entire family would live in a single room.

You were busy traveling the world.

How would you know?

Now, watch it.

I said don't talk back to your husband!

You move out, Huijin.

Me?

Why are you kicking me out?

Am I not your child?

Is this gender discrimination?

Yes, it is. Move out and

do what you will with your life.

So your sons matter, but I don't, right?

You only want Taejin and Ujin living with you.

Fine.

I'll move out if you give me money to move out.

Give you what?

Ujin, what is she asking for?

This isn't the time, Huijin.

She wants me to move out.

I will if you give me money.

Then pay me first for having raised you.

You always take everything out on me.

No one seems to care.

Children, good or bad,

don't understand their mother's heartache.

Are you really going to have Taejin move in?

You know I always walk the talk.

Will Yunjeong agree to it?

How about getting them their own place?

How would we afford that?

Do you have money?

I'll get severance if I retire.

What are you talking about?

You want to retire to get Taejin his own place

when you're up for a promotion?

I know, but

I'd prefer not seeing you worry about Taejin.

Don't you think about retiring

until after we get Huijin and Ujin married off.

We won't have any wedding guests.

No one would come once you retire.

We must make back all

the cash wedding gifts we've given.

Okay.

I forgot to get the gift certificates.

Use this to get another $500's worth.

Do you think it's really necessary?

What are you talking about?

You have to make it big

so that we can put Jeongsuk in her place

and so that I can rub it in her face.

Okay. Fine.

Ujin.

Yes?

Would you be able

to get a bank loan?

A loan?

You're really getting Huijin to move out?

You weren't there to see him today!

I have to get Taejin out of there before

his mother-in-law treats him any worse.

Once you become a fellow,

won't it be easy for you to get a loan?

Taejin's not a baby.

He's a father and a husband.

He has no sense of independence

because you coddle him.

Don't you feel sorry for your brother?

Isn't getting a loan the least you can do?

Mom.

Your brother paid your med school tuition.

Can't you repay him

now that you're doing well?

I know I'm indebted to everyone in this family.
