Episode 20
This...
Ah, isn't that pretty?
It looked unique and not complicated, so I thought I'd try making one too.
Where did you get this?
Why?
Tell me! Where did you get this?
The teacher here...
Because to me, that friend was my kiln and my spinning wheel.
Because that kid night cry,
I was afraid.
Like my father...
Like my mother...
Because that kid might cry because of me,
I ran away.
I can't believe it...
Go away!
Hey, you, I saw it first.
You should stop now, don't you think?
This...
Do you know what an insult this is to that person?
Giving money to help someone is an insult?
Guess you didn't think of it that way?
In all my life, it's the one wish that I've truly wanted.
Just this once, couldn't you just give in?
How?
How does a man like that become your wish?
You're the heiress to Shinhwa Group.
You're in a position where the best men in Korea...
no, in all of Asia... aren't good enough.
Come to your senses.
To me, that person is the best.
Because I love him, no one can replace him, no matter who they are!
Pathetic fool.
For sentiment that will disappear in a few years, you'll gamble away your life?
That won't do.
Mom!
That's right! Because I'm your mother, because you were born into Shinhwa Group,
I can't permit you to gamble on your childish love.
Do something like that in your next life.
Hey!
Miss!
Oh, this young lady!
What do we do?
Miss!
Why is she like this?
Are you okay?
What should I do?
Hello?
The thing is, the young lady has fainted.
Here? We're at...
Are you waking up?
How...?
It could've been really bad.
Jan-di, you fainted on the street.
But how did you...
If I hadn't called you at that moment, what would you have done?
How can someone be so foolish?
If you had a problem, I told you to think of me as a big sister.
Being sisters, did you think those were empty words?
It's not that.
You made a mistake, right?
Then you need to start listening to me.
Jan-di, you're now my guest.
Until your parents return, you can't ever leave this house. Understand?
Jun-hee, that's a little...
Regardless of Jun-pyo, didn't you say that you'd think of me as a real sister?
Um, still... Madam President...?
You don't need to worry about my mother. For the time being, she's away on a trip.
So now, you don't have any other excuses, right?
Then, despite my sense of shame, I'll stay for a while.
That's right! You should've been like this from the start.
But I too have one condition.
Condition?
I don't like to receive charity.
To cover room and board here, let me do some work.
What?!
No matter how much I think about it, there's something I'm curious about.
What?
The reason why you're so good to me.
Honestly, it's a little odd.
Gu Jun-pyo is now engaged.
Also, being so good to me, if Madam President came to know...
Are you really that curious about it?
Here, finished!
It's a present.
Starting today, this is the new housemaid, Geum Jan-di.
She may be no different from my younger sibling, but she insists on working here,
I expect all of you to help her out.
My name is Geum Jan-di. Please kindly assist me.
There's no need to request assistance.
Grandma, please take good care of her.
If that one needs to request assistance, then it may be better to not even start.
Oh, Grandma, a little gently.
No, it's fine. I'll be diligent!
Please treat me the same as the others.
Diligent isn't good enough.
Perfect. In this house, anything less than perfect will not be tolerated.
Are you ready?
The answer is always "Yes," "I understand," politely and in a moderate tone!
Yes... I understand.
Soon, I'll be going to the States. Will you be okay by yourself?
Please don't worry about me.
You, newcomer!
What are you dreaming about, you're not coming?
Yes, Grandmother.
"Grandmother," you say?
How can I be Miss Geum Jan-di's grandmother?
Then, what should I call you?
Here, you and I are at our sacred workplace. You call me "Ma'am."
Ma... Ma'am?
How long are you going to blankly stand there?
If you're to learn from the ground up, even a minute is precious.
Quickly come along.
Uh... yes!
In this house, a maid isn't merely a housekeeper.
She's a specialist who works to perfectly match her employer's needs and be prepared.
Ironing a shirt's cuffs and sleeves in one minute is a must.
From knowing how to dust an expensive painting,
to knowing how to organize a wine list, she must exercise perfect care.
Chanbatin.
Chambertin.
Now, this time, we shall go over the dinner menu.
Shrimp carpaccio with white truffle aïoli.
Shrimp... carpa!
Asparagus-garnished skirt steak.
A... aspara... gan!
Bell pepper chutney lined arugula, topped with smoked duck.
Duck?
I'm hungry. Give me some food first.
Basil oil drizzled...
Len...
L-Le...
Lentil beans.
Oh, you scared me!
Grandma! You were still alive?
Yes. Regretfully, I could not yet pass away.
I... no, what I meant was...
It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time.
What happened?
Didn't you say that you were going to run a housekeeping school or something?
The household was such a mess, I couldn't sit back and watch, so I came back.
Butler Lee, in the meantime, will be at the school on my behalf.
Why?
Do you have a problem with that?
N... No.
But who's she? Is she your trainee?
Where did you find the idiot who doesn't even know the menu?
An unavoidable situation arose, so I'm helping her out.
Let me introduce you.
Please turn around.
Nice to meet you.
This is the person on whom you'll now wait, Young Master Jun-pyo.
Please look kindly upon me.
Geu... Geum Jan-di!
Starting today, this is Young Master Jun-pyo's personal maid, Geum Jan-di.
Personal... maid!
Please! I'll do everything you tell me.
But what's this about Gu Jun-pyo's personal maid...
"Gu Jun-pyo," you say?
In this house, there's no one who can address him like that.
Whatever relationship you two may have on the outside,
while you're working in this house, address him as "Young Master."
Ah... yes. Yes.
So that's why, please reconsider my being Young Master's personal maid.
Grandmother... Ma'am.
Please, I beg of you.
Did you forget already?
An employee cannot do only what she wants to do.
As I expected, it wasn't right to come here.
Even now, could I say that I'm leaving?
If you had a problem, I told you to think of me as a big sister.
Being sisters, did you think those were empty words?
Ah... Geum Jan-di! Gu Jun-pyo's personal maid, Geum Jan-di, respond.
Gu Jun-pyo?
Yeah. Geum Jan-di, come to my room immediately. Over.
What?! This is really...
Hey!
What do you think you're doing right now?
It took you 3 minutes.
Next time, try to get here within one minute.
What?!
This is really...
An order to Gu Jun-pyo's personal maid, Geum Jan-di.
Immediately cook up some delicious ramen.
No!
Because of your sister, I can do nothing but try to tolerate this.
Within 10 minutes, bring the ramen.
Transmission ended.
Gu Jun-pyo... do you really want to die?
To whom are you replying so carelessly and informally?
I understand.
What's this?
Oh, you told... me to cook ramen for you.
But there's no lid!
Lid...
Are you satisfied now?
- Where are you going? - Why...!
W... Why?
Until I finish eating, sit over there.
There's a button. Push it.
Y... You! I mean, Young... Master.
What are you up to now?
The chair is so uncomfortable.
I'm in the process of testing it, so just do as I say.
What time is it, you're still in bed?
Quickly get ready and go to the Young Master.
Excuse me?
Starting from the morning?
Oh, this is a problem. He's being difficult again.
If this keeps up, won't we all get fired?
Seriously.
- What should we do? - I don't know.
You're not leaving?!
Know that if you wake me one more time, you're fired! Got it?
Don't cry.
It'll be all right.
Don't cry.
Young Master Jun-pyo, you should get up now.
Didn't I say that if you wake me one more time, then I'll fire you?
Do you want to die?
Gu Jun-pyo.
You're not gonna get up?
Because of you, people have to even fear for their jobs? Get up!
Ah, what's this?!
Geum Jan-di.
I'll get up. If I get up, then it'll be fine...
About being fired... I take it back.
Excuse me? Young Master, thank you! Truly, thank you!
Now it's over, right?
- Jan-di! - Thank you!
You're the best!
Is there anything you want to eat?
I'll make it all for you!
Yi-Jung!
Why are you here?
I always did the hiding, and never had to do the seeking.
Turned out to be pretty difficult.
Cha Eun-jae.
Didn't you hide a little too well?
I almost gave up playing hide and seek.
Yi-Jung.
Why does nothing turn out well for us?!
What's worse? Your luck in working as your ex-boyfriend's personal maid?
Or my luck, ultimately reuniting a guy with his first love
after finally deciding to make an effort with him.
Comparing such things is too sad.
Welco...
Jae-kyung!
Jan-di, did you move again?
Where happened to your house? There's absolutely nothing left of it.
Oh, that... a situation kind of came up.
So where did you go?
Let's have another housewarming!
I'll buy something delicious to eat and bring it.
Ga-eul, like the last time, we can play the truth game again. Sounds good?
Where is it? Tell me.
The thing is, my situation is...
It's my house!
Huh?
Right now, she's sharing a room with me.
So we can't have a housewarming and we can't even invite you over.
I'm sorry.
So it's like that. Still, it's a relief that you're staying with Ga-eul.
You could've stayed with me also!
Thank you for saying that.
Oh, Ga-eul, pack up some porridge for me.
Porridge? Why?
After the trip, I couldn't see Jun, so I called, but he said that he was sick.
So I'm going to visit him.
Jun?
Wait, Gu Jun-pyo is sick?
This morning, he was...
Jan-di, isn't it time for you to go volunteer?
I'm right, aren't I?
Oh, oh, it's over.
Well, his breathing sounds fine.
There's a bit of a fever but overall, he's healthy.
Thank you!
Goodbye.
Take your mother's hand.
Goodbye!
Doctor!
Doct...
Grandfather!
Grandfather! Grandfather, are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine. I know my own disease.
Oh, there's no need to be afraid.
You're not fine.
What would you have done if I weren't here, like last time?
You're right.
I can't let you keep living by yourself.
Are you saying you're going to put me in a nursing home?
Yes.
This girl!
Ji-hoo!
What's up so suddenly?
What's all this?
It's stuff for moving.
By any chance... are there any empty rooms in here?
Hurry up! Hurry!
Wait a moment.
Hurry hurry!
I have no clue what you're up to.
How come my personal maid isn't here?
Geum Ja...
My new personal maid.
Her master is having a dinner, but how come she's nowhere here?
Your personal?
Today is a Saturday, Young Master.
So what?
Miss Jun-hee assigned Geum...
She planned the rookie maids' work hours,
so they wouldn't interfere with her school and her part-time jobs.
Also only for five days per week. That's why...
Five days per week?
What kinda rule is that?!
She ain't working for the government.
Miss Jae-kyung has come.
What?
Jun!
Jun?
Our little Jun was sick? I'll take good care of you!
Let's eat porridge.
Jun-pyo, are you sick?
Here.
What are you doing, Jun-pyo?
Your fiancée tells you to say "ah."
Oh my, you're eating well! Is it good?
Sit down, please.
This is your home now.
This girl!
How can things go so fast as lightening at a time like this?
Listen, my feelings need to adjust...
You've been doing it for the last 15 years.
Preparing your heart for this.
Do you need more?
If you don't start listening to me, I'm going to let everything out!
What?
About your sickness, Grandfather.
Is it all right to do that?
You've learned all the bad things!
That's what someone else told me!
They said I'm good at covering distances.
Good night.
Hey, Jan-di.
Yeah?
Do you think he'll forgive me?
What are you so afraid of? You're his grandfather.
If he doesn't listen, you can just grab a stick and hit that boy in his cheeks.
Good night.
All right.
What do you think you're doing?
For grandpa, and Ji-hoo also, you all need family.
All I did was find one for you.
Jan-di, I'm not yet...
You're not ready yet?
Because Grandpa said the same thing.
How long do you need to prepare your hearts?
Aren't they all useless in the end?
You said before, Ji-hoo,
that no one can know everything about one person.
But the person we know, at least we know what kind of person he is.
The Ji-hoo that I know really loves his grandfather.
That's the reason he can forgive him.
Geum Jan-di.
Answer, Geum Jan-di.
Gu Jun-pyo's personal maid!
Did you fall dead somewhere?
You're still not home?
What?! I'm not working right now!
Run to me right now.
Call me after 5am on Monday.
I'll pay you overtime, then.
What? Do you want ramen?
Hey!
Sit down here.
What? What?
Don't say anything and just sit.
What's this?
It's starting.
I'm leaving.
Geum Jan-di.
Hey! Gu Jun-pyo! We're in big trouble!
Jae-kyung...
Jae-kyung is coming right now!
What?
What are we gonna do? What do we do?
What do you mean, "What do we do?" Just be quiet.
You know what, we'll just stand up and say the truth.
Ah, I don't know!
Where are you going?
Hey!
What are you doing?
Hey, why are you going in there?
Gu Jun-pyo, please close the door.
Hey, I'm asking why you're going in there.
Jun, Jun!
Where are you?
I'm here.
You were here!
Hey, Monkey, don't you ever sleep? Why come so late to someone else's home?
It's not someone else, but my partner.
What?
It's so corny, huh?
My father always say that there's philosophy in every famous lyrics line.
Before, I had no clue what that meant, but these days, I understand thoroughly.
Is it because I'm dating?
D-Dating?
Why did you come anyway?
To spend the night together.
To spend the night?
We should watch this together.
I wanted to watch it but it was too scary to watch alone.
Sounds good? Let's go.
I realized you liked these when you were younger.
Let's eat.
I'm not hungry.
At least take this, then.
Jae-kyung, what's going on...
Jan-di, why did you do it? Why did you trick me?
I thought of you as my real friend.
I wanted to spend my life with you as sisters.
But how can you do this to me?
Jae-kyung...
That's not it. I'm sorry... to be honest... the thing is...
You lied to me, and you scarred me for life.
Jae-kyung... please calm down and listen...
Jan-di, Jan-di, what are you doing today?
I... I'm really busy today! Really really busy!
In fact, I was just about to leave!
Really? All right, bye.
Bye!
Both of you slept well?
So early in the morning...
What's up?
Oh, me? I wanted to leave for work with both of you!
Since it's three of us, let's take the car.
Let's go! Let's go!
Hurry!
Here it is. Be careful, it's very hot.
Your temperature is normal.
Here you go.
Oh, Grandma! Grandma!
No!
Miss Kim Mi-ok!
Can you hold the baby for a second?
Oh, please wait a moment.
Ji-hoo!
Young man! Tea, please!
Yeah, we need a refill.
How can you be so good-looking?!
I should drink some too, then.
Yes, it looks fine.
You can leave this way.
Wait just a second.
It's been long since I've been here.
Do you remember? That time we were scolded by Grandfather because we were playing
hide-and-seek in the authentication room?
Of course! As a punishment, we had to scrub the oven.
Right.
And the time you said it was cold,
so I started the fire and then it became a disaster.
The one who complained it was cold was you.
No way, it was obviously you.
Wait... was it me?
Your mother is doing all right?
Same as usual.
Want news about my father?
How about you, Yi-Jung?
You're doing well, right?
Curious? Were you even curious about that?
Why did you do that?
What?
How could you just vanish in the air with no warning whatsoever.
Do you know that feeling?
Like air,
an existence that always stayed by my side just disappears into thin air,
the bewilderment can't be described in words.
If you knew, you couldn't have done that do me.
I wasn't your air.
What?
I wasn't the air, Yi-Jung.
I was probably more like a wind, but you mistook me for the air.
I was also foolish enough to think I was the air.
I thought I could stay there as long as you wanted.
I don't understand what you're saying.
Winds can never return back to their original place once they fly by.
Why are you doing this?
Oh, it's you, Ga-eul.
I want to sleep, so...
Can we get back later?
Yi-Jung, this is all you experienced and endured,
and you acted so strong and mature in front of me?
Can you shut that mouth and leave?
No. If I shut my mouth now,
I'll have to see you live this stupid life forever.
Yi-Jung, you're a liar, a whiner, and a total coward.
What?
You said you acted like you didn't know, because you thought she would get hurt?
No.
You were just afraid of getting hurt yourself, Yi-Jung.
Because you were scared for her to realize you're pathetic.
Chu Ga-eul...
I know that So Yi-jung's mighty and cool side is just a mask.
But the So Yi-Jung I like
is like a child that's scared to lose love.
Children never hesitate in front of something they like.
They know that if they lose it, their tears will burst.
Thank you for today.
You did something you've never done because of me, right?
Get in, I'll give you a ride.
No, it's fine. Ill go by myself.
Grandfather, that must be very heavy.
Shall we go, Doctor?
Outside the hospital, I shall return back to old grandpa again.
- Be careful. - All right.
Put on your seat belt.
Drive carefully.
Be careful on your way home!
Young Master.
Young Master. You must get up, Young Master.
You should wake up now.
Young Master!
What do you think you're doing?
5 minutes.
Let me stay like this for just 5 minutes.
Even though I'm holding you like this, I can't believe that you're here.
Jun! I'm here! Let's...
How do I look?
Jan-di... I can't let her go.
By any chance, you're not going to ask me
to help you run away from the wedding tomorrow, right?
Gu Jun-pyo.
I'm asking the point of your limit.
And how much do I need to deal with?
All of it.
I'll repay everything that made you suffer, Jan-di.
Please forgive me.
Break my arm.
- What? - Jun-pyo.
If this is the only way you can stop this, then just do it.
We're going to become a couple tomorrow at this very place.
Regardless of our past,
we're going to promise to love one another until our deaths.
