Once Again (I Have Been There Once / Han Bun Danyeowasseubmida / 한 번 다녀왔습니다)

- Mom. - You idiot.

Mom, talk it out. Don't resort to violence.

That could become a habit!

- How dare you? - Mom.

- What? - What?

- You... - What?

You...

- Mom, we're here. - Mother, we're...

What?

Da Hee. Why are you here?

Na Hee.

Why are you here and what's with the apron?

Na Hee, I was going to tell you...

Your sister...

is working part-time here in the evenings.

- Sorry? - I needed extra help...

and she was looking for a job.

Isn't it nice that we can help each other?

I get to have a reliable employee...

while your sister has a safe place to work.

Hold on a second.

So she's my in-law?

Na Hee's real biological sister?

Would she be a fake sister then?

You met her at the wedding.

We should talk.

But...

Da Hee...

Right!

Now I remember.

You will quit this instant.

What?

Quit working at this cafe.

- Why? - Must you ask?

There are other places to work.

You can keep searching for a job,

so why here of all places?

Don't you see how uncomfortable this is for me?

I'll make sure it doesn't get to that.

I know what you're worried about,

but I'm going to work hard and always stay on her good side.

Na Hee, please. It's close to home and my academy...

and the hourly rate is higher than in other places.

Mom already approved.

Mom approved?

So please just let it slide this once.

I'll do a good job.

You working hard isn't the issue.

I just hate the fact that you're working here.

Things are already...

Just quit, okay?

I'll pay for your classes if you need the money,

so focus solely on your studies instead.

You're really good at kicking me down.

Don't you understand why I'm going back to college at this age...

and working a part-time job to support myself?

It's because I want to succeed without your help or dad's.

I don't want to be a shameless brat.

So just let me work this job, okay?

Please.

Da Hee, but still...

Can you stop glaring at me?

Your eyes look like they're going to pop out.

He's right, Mom.

Let your anger subside now...

and stop glaring at him like that.

Getting all worked up will only elevate your blood pressure.

It's dangerous considering your age.

How sweet of you to think of me.

How considerate!

So why have you been hiding from me...

after returning to Korea?

You're his big brother,

but instead of telling him off,

you joined him on his lie and deceived your mom.

Mom, please. This wasn't deception. You're taking it too far.

He's right. You're overreacting.

I wasn't going to lie to you forever.

I was going to surprise you with my presence...

after enjoying some freedom.

Surprise me? My foot!

You jerks.

Is this what I get for worrying about my sons?

My blood pressure is rising.

Na Hee, you're just as bad.

These two have always been clueless,

but I didn't think you'd deceive me too.

Shouldn't you of all people have told me about him?

Mom, why are you taking it out on her?

Na Hee didn't do anything wrong.

Mother, I apologize for not telling you.

But I think my sister should find another job.

It'll be hard for her to work for an in-law...

and your relationship with my mom...

- will make things uncomfortable. - It doesn't.

I'm fine. It's not uncomfortable.

Sorry?

Your sister has been doing a great job...

and she's nice to the customers,

unlike her own sister.

Your mother already approved too,

so there's nothing more to talk about.

Not telling me about Jae Seok is one thing,

but why don't you ever pick up my calls?

Are you busy every second of the time?

You're not the only doctor in this family.

Both of my sons are doctors too!

You always boast about...

graduating at the top of your class,

but Jae Seok received top grades once.

- Aren't I right? - You are.

- Right? - Yes.

I raised my sons as doctors without any hitches either,

so why do you keep ignoring me?

Are you not going to stop this?

Stop what?

I'm talking about Da Hee.

Things with us are complicated enough.

I don't get why your mother insisted on hiring Da Hee anyway.

It doesn't make any sense!

Since when did you try to understand my mom anyway?

It's nothing new.

I'm not looking for an argument.

We're divorced but our parents don't know.

Doesn't it bother you?

Whatever.

If you're that bothered, talk to my mom yourself.

She's someone I can't persuade.

Are you kidding me?

I'm not kidding you, but what else can I say, right?

You're being childish.

Right, I'm childish...

- and you're selfish. - What?

Our divorce is our problem, right?

Just like you said, our families don't know.

You can't tell Da Hee she can't work there...

just because it makes you uncomfortable.

That's extremely selfish. Da Hee did nothing wrong.

Of course, you're considerate at times like this.

We're never on the same page.

Yes, exactly. No wonder we got divorced.

Yes, I guess you're right.

Me being uncomfortable is my issue,

so I'll deal with that myself.

But your mom is your issue, so you should deal with her.

Okay, got it. What about your mother though?

Don't you think you'll ask me for any favors with her?

I can deal with my mom just fine.

She just thinks she's above everyone.

The truth is,

my marriage was voided on the day of the wedding.

I won't say why because that's privacy.

But then today, I even lost my job.

Don't you think that life is just crazy?

What on earth did I say to my in-law?

How stupid of me.

Why didn't I remember him?

I greeted him at Na Hee's wedding.

Gosh, this is embarrassing!

I blame my useless brain.

Why bother bringing it around with you?

Why? Why?

She was Na Hee's sister?

No wonder she seemed familiar.

Could I be losing my touch?

I never forget a girl's face.

Anyway, what a fun connection. I'm entertained.

My gosh!

Mom, at least knock. Where are your manners?

Manners, my foot. You're unbelievable.

Who are you to speak about manners?

You imbecile.

What do you want to eat?

We can argue some more later,

but you should have some dinner first.

It's all right, Mom. I'm not hungry.

I'm good.

As if you are, you jerk.

Take your pick already. Steak or salmon?

If I had known, I would've gone grocery shopping.

You brat.

I can't believe you're making me cook on the fly like this.

Mom, I'm really good.

I had a sandwich earlier, so I'm not hungry.

Shut it. As if a sandwich can keep you full.

Anyway, get changed. I'll whip something up.

I'll now be cooking for my grown-up son at this age.

What a hard time I'll have.

My goodness. Unbelievable.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Looking good.

Where's the frying pan?

I put it all the way up there since I never use it.

Jae Seok, can you get over here? I need your help.

Jae Seok?

Please get that frying pan for me.

All right. So the meat is out...

and now for the balsamic sauce.

I'm glad I had it restocked.

My gosh.
