Inheritance - English Transcript

[Episode 1] Are you still mad at me? Are you? I can't remember the last time we talked face to face. Can we at least meet our eyes? Chaewon. Honey. Don't touch me. I said I'm sorry, so please stop it. How long will you get on my nerves over nothing? You're so tiring. It was nothing? Get on your nerves? Tiring? Yes. How are you, Director Kim? Oh! Hi, Mr. Kim! How have you been? Here we have Chairwoman Youngja Bhang of Golden Dragon Foods. Please welcome her with a round of applause! Thank you. Your big applause makes me feel like I'm some K-pop star. Golden Dragon Foods started from a small grocery store. We were able to produce 200 million dollars in exports thanks to all our employees, our staff members, and our dear stockholders. I only received the award on your behalf and you are the true heroes. I would like to attribute this honor to all of you. Also, I'd like to thank my family who always supports me. My son, the brain of Golden Dragon Foods, Director Cholgyu Kim. And my beloved daughter, Juri Kim. [Pass.] [Excuse me?] [Pass, pass.] [Pass!] [Pass, pass.] [Pass.] [Why?] Thank you and I love you. Now, would you please raise your glasses? Let's make a toast. For the prosperity of Golden Dragon Foods! Cheers! Thank you. Did you enjoy the dinner? - Thank you so much. - Congrats. - Thank you. - Thank you. Please enjoy. One sec. You think you're shooting some film? Why don't you just drown in alcohol? How uneducated. Where do you think you are? This isn't your drinking party. Were you taught like that? Ill-mannered. I didn't drink much. This is my first glass. There you go again, talking back to your elder. This is why the education at home is important. How come you never look good in anything you wear? You spent the entire afternoon in adorning yourself up. But is this your best look? Truly, the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. Since you've done your role, go home. I know you have slot wits but how come you lack any sense to want to stay here until the very end when no one likes you? Alright. Then I'll leave now. Such a tenacious ***. A leech. Where is Chaewon Q.S. going? Of course home. Q.S.? What do you mean? You always want to dispose her for Quick Sale. Q.S. in short. Gee. You're a genius at coining a word. Grandpa. [Award Certificate] Look! Why are you so slow today? Did you go somewhere to make a baby instead of hanging noodles? You want a late child? How about giving Keeok a younger sibling? If you're okay, I can even bear you triplets. You're going senile? You're not sure? I'm still young and healthy. Cut the crap. And go buy some beef tomorrow morning. Beef? Why? Beef is the best medicine for dotage. Eat beef and get a grip. Don't be shy, honey. Chaewon? Dad. What brings you here at this hour? Something happened? I just came since I missed my family. Are you sure everything is okay? Yes. Where's Cholgyu? He has an important business meeting. Then why are you standing out here? It's cold. I was waiting for you. You'll freeze to death. Let's get in. Did you eat dinner? You want me to make noodle soup for you? Let's get in. Come on. Go ahead. Those crappy jerks. We're eating. What made you so upset and grumpy? I told our kids to come help us make noodles since we're back-ordered. But no one has showed up. I'm sorry. I should've come earlier but the work finished late today of all days. Why do you say sorry? You worked outside on the poles in this cold all day long. Stop being mad, honey. We've sweated our guts out but no matter how hard we work, it's like shoveling sand against the tide. Who would eat traditional noodles when foodstuffs are all around? So, you're saying we'd better shut down our family business of 100 years? Then how could I face my ancestors after I die? They will understand you. You know even though we work hard, nothing's left once we pay our utility bills and material costs. So why would you ask for trouble? Enough. All men yield to time. You're not young forever. Why? Are you done already? I'm sorry. I made a slip of the tongue. Don't be mad and just finish your meal. I'm sorry, okay? Yes, Father. She apologizes to you. Please stop being mad. Oh, Grandpa. You are a cool man. Please accept her apology and eat your noodles before it gets cold. Please? I let it pass this time for Chaewon. You have a baby? I'm sorry? You look gaunter everytime I see you. Don't you have morning sickness? Are you pregnant? No. Certainly not. Constantly talking about babies. What are you murmuring? I just prayed for a healthy baby boy for Chaewon. Why? Eat. Geez. Can't you knock? Why should I when I enter my son's room? Since you're acting like this, Chaewon can't stand you. Are you siding with her now? Since when did you leave me out and take her side? It's not that. I've always been open with you but Chaewon is different. So I'm just asking you to be more careful. Okay. I'll keep that in mind. - Give me your shirt. - It's okay. I can put it in the washer. No. I can't let your laundry be washed with hers. I don't want someone else to wash your laundry. It's my job. Such a wicked ***. You dared to come between my son and me? Hurry, go in. Your mother-in-law might be worried about you being late. Dad. Yes? No, nothing. You are strange today. - Did you fight with Cholgyu? - No. I always feel sorry to you. You don't have a Mom to open yourself up to and you can't get through to this incompetent dad. I'm sorry. Oh Dad, please don't say that. I'm really okay. Don't worry about me and just go. You go in first. I'll be home right over this gate. Go in. I'll leave after I see you going in. Just go in. [I love you] What is this? My grandfather sent some fresh noodles for you. No thanks. You eat them all. Take this. Wash your husband's laundry yourself. Yes, Mother. Ha... Are you scoffing at me? How dare you. Are you mocking your mother-in-law? You must be off your head. Can't you keep your mouth shut? How dare you mock me? You stole my son and now you're despising me? Let's see how long you can laugh at me. Laugh at me. Laugh at me if you can! Laugh at me! Laugh at me till you can't laugh more, you ***! You vamp sucking out blood from my precious son! What's the use of all these? Mom, what's wrong with you? Calm down! Chaewon, just beg her to forgive you! Let go of her hair. Please stop! - Calm down. - Laugh at me! What's wrong with you? Please, please calm down. Even though you're upset, you shouldn't use violence. Yanking her hair isn't even violence to Mom. Wasn't your nickname Mamushi when you were a moneylender? Hey! She's trying her best but she's been stressed lately. She seems to have started taking anti-depressants. - That *** takes antidepressants? - Hey! Again, learn to speak more politely! She's a patient. So give her some break. She's smart enough to get your point, so please solve problems by talking. Look who's talking. You threw a wine glass at her a few days ago. It was because... She's lost her head. She's insane. Mom, what happened to your lips? Huh? My lips? What's wrong with my lips? You're really tactless. Don't you know her temper to trigger her? Just fawn over her and butter her up. And she'll give you anything since she's simple-minded. Can't you even curry her favor? Look at you. Get up. Get off me. You're so...! Are you gonna keep wearing me out? I said I'm sorry. I only made a mistake while drunk. How long will you hang onto that? Let's stop here. What? I'll give you your freedom. Let's get divorced. Okay. Let's divorce! I'm fed up living like this, too! In the hundredth anniversary. This noodle plant has operated for three generations. I don't know who will keep a diary of work after me, but that person will be carrying on a fourth generation family business. The world has become affluent and slights noodles, but back in hard times, noodles were a gracious food to feed the hungry, a sanctified food for the wedding day or rites table. As long as you could hold your noodle bowl, rich and poor, sick and healthy, old and young alike... could feel the same warmth. Your great grandfather, your grandfather, and I... were able to carry on this business thanks to the warmth of noodles. I earnestly ask you, my successor, to keep the ember of warmth burning. Oh. How nice of you. Thank you. Would you like something to drink? Coffee, please. I'm fine. Oh, I'm sorry! Are you alright? I'm okay. That's alright. I'm really sorry. I'll pay to get it cleaned. How much? Ten dollars? Twenty? Pardon? That's okay. Don't be mindful. This floral aroma... of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. I guess you know coffee, ma'am. 2921. 2922... Uh oh! You're sweating. I can't bear to see you doing this. Solju, let me sub for you. I'll do the bows. Buddha will understand you too. Stop the nonsense. Just step aside. Seyoon is coming back from the U.S. today. Please keep his journey safe and bring him home in peace, and help him to meet a good woman within this year. Also, please let Mr. Yi's business prosper and become the top in the food industry. I beg of you. Solju, Solju. I got a call. I'll be right back. Yes. I'm with Solju at Bongeun Temple. Why? Don't you know she bows 3000 times on Seyoon's birthdays? It'll last all through this afternoon. I only pretended to bow but I already feel pain in every part of my body. But Solju doesn't utter a groan and almost fulfills 3000 bows. I know she was spiteful since college years. Ugh. Get me some patches on your way home. So why did you follow her there and ask for trouble? I'm a Catholic with a baptismal name. Do you think I'm doing this because I believe in Buddha? You'll need to be promoted to Exec Director this time. I'm currying below her knees all day long and I'm almost exhausted. She's coming out. Hang up. Are you done already? It's cold. Let's get some rest in the car. I'll give you a massage. Let's go. Sometimes you seem to torture yourself. What do you mean? You always make 3000 bows on his birthday to the point of fainting. It's a good day to celebrate and enjoy but... why borrow trouble instead? I live in luxury 364 days a year. What's wrong with doing this for my only son one day a year? That single-hearted love for Seyoon. I totally forgot to bring aroma oil. Massage with aroma oil works much better. No need. I can get acupressure later. I took an acupressure class for you. Though I didn't get a license, I have a strong grip, you know. My husband loves my massages. Make some time. I'll give you a full massage from head to toe. Okay? No need. That's burdensome. Come on! I'm sad to hear you say that. You and I are not just any friends. We've known each other for over 30 years since the college days. We're like sisters, aren't we? You know, on the new personnel appointments, my husband... I wonder if the chief priest finished his preaching. I guess it's almost time. That sly brat! I followed and cleaned up after her all day long, but turn her face when I was about to ask for a favor? Such a ***! Hey! Don't live like that, you ***! My head aches. Aren't you coming out? Huh? I am. I'm coming out. It's cold. Solju! Is his office all set? Yes. They moved in a desk and couches and hooked up a computer. He's kind of a perfectionist. Do double check. Yes. Oh, Mr. Uhm. I got info that you'll be promoted to Executive Director. It's from the Chair's Secretary Office. It's almost definite. Cut the crap and get back to work. Yes. Came back from an outside duty? Yes. I had a meeting with a subcontractor. Juri. - Is Chaewon doing okay? - Well. I can't say she's doing okay. - You know I can't lie. - Why? Something happened to her? Not exactly but... Why don't you ask her yourself? What does she mean not exactly? The wound was healed up well. No scar left. Thank you. It could've been dangerous. Ms. Minn. I'm saying this since you're like my younger sister. It's not the best idea to hush up domestic violence. You're happy? Pardon? Are you happy to take my son away from me? I guess you are. Just with your pretty face only... you snatched the number one bachelor. Feels as if you're on top of the world, eh? Though I have many shortcomings, I'll be a good wife. Cholgyu gets easily bored of everything. When he was little, he used to get bored with his favorite toys in three months. Three months is minimum, three years is maximum. Enjoy while you can. Then why did you approve of our marriage? Parents have a soft spot for their children. He threw a tantrum pestering me to get him a new toy. Then I'd better let him have fun with it till he gets tired of it. Ready? Oh! What a handsome couple! I've never seen such a perfectly matched couple in my life. You must be a match made in heaven. I clothe you, I feed you, I gave you a home. Credit cards? Who pays these credit card bills? It's my son and me with my hard-earned money! Mother... I didn't work my tail off and earn money to pay your credit card bills. Daughters-in-lawa of other families bring a huge dowry, but you married my son for nothing. What's even worse, now you want to play his wife and squander my money? I didn't use them for myself. I did grocery shopping and... Why do grocery shopping? I told you to leave the housework to the maid and not to even lift a finger. Just stay as you are and leave my family in due time. Do you understand? Oh Mom. Why make a loud noise over a trifle? Just let her have some money. Shut up. Who are they? Candidates for Cholgyu's wife. I'm sorry? I told you. Minimum three months, maximum three years. Since time is almost up, I should look for a proper wife for him. Mother! I like the second lady. Who do you think Cholgyu will like? You know his taste. Are you sure you're a human being? What? Even though you don't like me, how could you be this cruel to me? I really can't regard you as a human being with warm blood. Is the blood in your veins frozen black? Are you crazy? What the heck are you babbling? I won't leave this house no matter how much you insult me. You said it. I won't give up the position of this family's only daughter-in-law. Now you're showing your true colors. Yes! Your hard-earned money? I will spend the last penny of the money even after I die. Don't even have vain hope. Are you crazy? How dare you defy my mom? Can't believe this! I've lived only for my son since I was widowed at 30. Never did I imagine I'd be despised by a daughter-in-law. Oh honey, take me to where you are. Mom, calm down. Beg her for forgiveness! I didn't do anything wrong. I only told her how I felt. We need to talk. What's wrong with you? Are you nuts? I just vented my harbored feelings for three years, because I felt I might die if I didn't vent them out. I vented them out not to die. Are you saying you're right to defy her? Were you this kind of a woman? This kind of a woman? Look who's talking, Mama's boy. Mama's boy? The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. You snatched the number one bachelor. How dare you defy my mom? Let's divorce! You're happy? Laugh at me! Laugh at me if you can, you ***! I'll divorce him. No, I'll grant your wish. Though it's a bit late, you made the right decision. But you need to know one thing. I can give you some comfort money but no alimony. You made the best catch in Korea, a divorced man, so it's you who should pay compensation. I'm sorry but I won't. What? What is this? Medical certificates and a doctor's letter are inside. Also, there is a scrapbook on Cholgyu's scandals with actresses. Ha! You're back-stabbing. Because I had to survive. I fed and clothed a beggar like you and now you snapped at my heels? How hard it must've been for you to hide your real intentions. A biting dog doesn't bark. What? Chaewon. What do you think you're doing? Excuse me then. Hey. Stop right there! Call in Attorney Kim. Are you nuts? Did you lose your head? How could you tell that to her without even discussing with me? You are just her puppet. You'll listen to her anyways, so why would I want to repeat myself? Who do you think I am? Hey, Chaewon. If you use violence, it'll be unfavorable to you in the divorce settlement. You... You lost your head. Yes I did. Otherwise, how could I have lived with your family for three years? Look, Chaewon... Let's talk in a quiet place. Talk with my attorney. I have nothing more to speak with you about. She's really... We lost a big contract at the Beijing Exposition due to his slip of the tongue, and he lost his reputation because of his scandals with actresses. If he gets divorced, our stockholders won't trust him. You think so too, huh? Dad! Chaewon, what are you doing here? I was just passing by. Just one sec. I'll come down. Hey. Is she your daughter? Yes. The one you married off to a millionaire? Millionaire? Not really. Give them greetings. My coworkers. How do you do? I bet your life took a turn for the better thanks to your daughter. Do I look like someone to depend on my daughter? I only wish her a happy life. Your daughter's appearance brightens the entire town. What a pretty daughter you have. Alright. Lunch is on me. Stop flattering me. Then can we have pork belly? Pork belly? Alright. We can eat that. Go ahead and start eating. I'll join you soon after talking with her. - Come to Bistro Jeonju. - Okay. You want to join us? No, I'm fine. Mr. Kim was so proud to get his daughter into medical school, but he lost his spirit at your appearance. I feel great today. Hyodong. Chaewon. You've been to the bath house? Yes. I have an arranged date today. I washed and brushed up for two hours. Your parents expect good news this time. So the guy is a manager at a big corp and owns a house, huh? Still, he's a salaried employee, whose position is only ephemeral. He could be fired in winter, without severance pay, and even as unfair dismissal. You never know if he will fall into one of these categories. Owns a house? There are so many house-poor people these days. He might not be so good as he looks. Choose substance over appearance. You're right but don't you think you're a bit too pessimistic? Not pessimistic. I'm just realistic. By the way, your face is gaunter than the last time. - Something happened to you? - No. I have no problem. [Mozart Piano Institute] Ms. Uhm, it's so noisy and I can't play the piano. It is, huh? Too noisy. Finally, the citizens of Paju can enjoy our pork. Pork with no antibiotics, our pork ribs are as soft as beef ribs! You can enjoy owner's service mind and chef's generosity that a grill can't even hold. Come on, Mama, Papa, Uncle and Aunt and gnaw on ribs. Gnaw on ribs all night. Look, mister. Welcome. Look, we have a customer. No, I'm not. I'm your neighbor running a piano academy upstairs. Never again~ I can't teach my students since you make too much noise! This isn't a dance hall. Don't you think you're being too much? Are you ignoring me now? Am I talking to a wall? I will live with you If you're gonna continue acting like this, I'll call the police. Seems you have no conscience. When we gave out rice cakes to celebrate, you took two plates. Stop causing a disturbance! Causing a disturbance? You want to see what a real disturbance is? Hey! We are neighbors and should help each other. You can't spoil our opening like some git! Git? Are you gonna keep at it? Gosh! Why isn't it working? Hey, are you crazy? That nutcase...! Come here! - What's going on? - We must stop that woman. Why bother? Just keep singing. The cord was cut. The cord? Thank you. Sorry, I should've washed it for you. It's okay. Thank you. I'm sorry. Seyoon! Here! Why did you come when it's cold? Of course I came to see my son as soon as possible. Let me see my son's face. It's been so long. My mother became much younger than the last time. How many preservatives did you eat while I was away? You make me laugh. Let's go. I'm hungry. Let's go, Mom. What is he doing with the light turned off? Hello? Look! Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, my dear son. Happy birthday to you. You didn't come to the airport to prepare this? Yes. What are you waiting for? Okay. What are you thinking so hard about? Nothing. Let's eat. Your mother prepared quite a spread for your birthday. After I put my luggage in my room and get changed. Seems he got better. I know. He even made a joke. I think he's back to himself. Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hey! Are you okay? - Wake up. - Say something. Eunseol... Eunseol... Too inferior food for the price. I flew business class to celebrate my return to Korea in 30 years but... that was a waste of money. Hello? Oh, hi. You found the right place for sale? Oh, okay. Okay. I'll go to your realtor's office. Thank you. Uh oh. What are these? Oh, no. My bag must've been switched with this. Then...! This is an original not a fake? Oh! I can't believe this. Wait. Isn't she the troublemaker this afternoon? Did Keeok call home? She must be in the middle of a date. I wish she would get married this time. Namu Ami Tabul. Halleluiah, Amen. If she fails again, let her quit teaching piano and help the family business. You wish for the impossible. Aren't you tired of singing the same song for over 10 years? Keutsoon! You're getting impudent with me these days. Impudent? I'm just saying. Are you appeasing your hunger with nuts again? Aren't you going to work? Shut up. "You meet bad luck you cannot escape." Hi there, Gold digger. Are you talking to me? Who else? I think you got the wrong person. Look at you fiending ignorance. Your acting is superb. This man... Huh? Aren't you that singer? Yeah. You can't pretend you don't know me. Hey! Hey. You're lucky today. There are a great number of men who fell in her trap and lost everything. She is wanted. What the heck are you talking about? Are you crazy? Well, it's not true. I'm not that kind of a woman. What the. Hold on. Wait. Wait! Who the heck are you to spoil my date? You spoiled my business too. We're even now. Ha. Can't believe this. This is really nuts. What the heck is that wacko? You good for nothing! Now you teach your son stealing? Stealing? Then was that begging, not stealing? Hey, honey! Why am I your honey? We are legally divorced, okay? Mom, this is food to be served. Please calm down. I'll let it pass on his account. Such a good-for-nothing. Keeok. Long time no see. Yeah. What's this atmosphere again? Did you fight? It's a routine. What brings you to Seoul at this hour? Oh! You had an arranged date, right? Did it go well? If it did, I wouldn't be here. A bottle of soju and a small trotter, please. Pay in advance. You never cut relatives or friends some slack. Alright. Here. Such a money-grubber. I'm sick of her. You chased after her everywhere, saying she's full of vitality. So I must've lost my head. I was nuts. A complete nut. You took the words right out of my mouth. If I hadn't been your best friend, I wouldn't have run into your brother. I'm full of regrets. I'm full of regrets too! My nephew must have a hard time dealing with his parents. It's a routine. You're really scary. You've prepared to divorce me in such a calm way. How could you face me without showing any emotions? You're drunk. Let's talk when you're sober. Hey. Acting so arrogant. Who do you think you are? If you're acting like this, it'll be unfavorable to you at court. Court? Did you say court? You are really! Cholgyu, Cholgyu, try to talk. Because I'm so upset. It should be me who should be asking for a divorce. How could she ask for a divorce? Cholgyu, you must hold it back. We should avoid her. We don't want her dirt rubbing off on us. Come out. Just come out. Aren't you gonna say anything? Just come out. You've absolutely won. Never did I imagine you'd screw my mom like this. Now you look like a human being. Are you leaving now? Thank you for everything. How could they do this to such a good person like you? Please forget about this family and start over. Chaewon, Chaewon. Big trouble! Cholgyu...My Cholgyu is... Something happened to him? He caused trouble at last. What do you mean? I think he can't bear being betrayed by you. What are you talking about? He didn't come to work and drove out somewhere... I don't know if he meant it or if it was just an accident but... He had a serious car accident and was taken to a hospital in Namhae. What? I'll be back soon. Be on standby. Yes, Ma'am. Excuse me. What room is Mr. Cholgyu Kim in? Ma'am. Come this way please. Where's my husband? I guess he went for a checkup. Please have a seat while you wait. Huh? Why isn't it opening? Excuse me. Is anyone out there? Please help me open the door. The door is locked. I'm locked in! [Naehae Mental Hospital] Mental Hospital? My phone. My cell phone. Open the door! Just open the door! Hello? Is anyone out there? I'm locked in! Open the door! Welcome, Patient Chaewon Min, Patient? After you change into the patient gown on the bed, we'll begin your checkup. Why are you calling me a patient? I'm not a patient. Where is my mother-in-law? She came with me from Seoul. She returned to Seoul. What? She told us to help you get rest and treatment so you can recover soon. So you mean... my mother-in-law had me locked in here? Subtitles provided by MBC. I'm normal. I'm not insane! I won't lose you to anybody this time. You really have no desire to succeed our family business? Oh, Father. I have a trauma of noodles. It's sons, not daughters, who should succeed a family business. When I grow up, I will... It won't be late to think about it later. I'm no longer your wife. Don't cross this line. Or you're gonna die. I told you. My son-in-law has no intention to remarry. Excuse me. Your hat isn't right on your head. You have a nice-looking head. Ouch! Are you okay? This isn't right. A human can't do this. - Who the heck are you? - Please help me. I'm normal. I'm not insane!
