the river's nearby.

A great investment.

Chairman Park owns it?

No, it's public land.

Lee Min-ki!

Ready to invest?

What are you up to?

Shin-ae, come over here...

The nerve!

So it's Shin-ae now, is it?

Yes, Chairman!

I'm at the chicken soup place

near Pyochoong Temple.

I'm with a guest from Seoul,

a young man.

I'd like you to meet him.

Can you come?

He's right here.

And a pianist lady as well.

I'd love to be able...

...to introduce them to you.

Remember that chicken soup place

near Pyochoong Temple?

Yes, okay.

I reallly respect that man.

He's No.1 in Miryang.

He owns good land near the plot

you saw, and he's a great guy!

That's for sure!

He could be a real help to you.

Is he coming?

He said he would,

but I'm not sure.

It's true, he knows people

all over the country.

He's had more official posts

than you could count.

Does all that really matter?

It certainly gets you ahead

in life, can't argue with that.

There's a name

for people like you.

What's that?

A snob!

Well!

You know...

...whenever I meet Shin-ae,

I'm pushed into a corner!

It doesn't happen at other times,

I don't know why...

Miryang is a strange place.

Nothing strange about it,

it's like anywhere else.

Thank you for the ride.

You're welcome...

Hope to see you again.

I don't think we'll meet again.

Miryang Staion

Shall I give you a hint?

A hint?

You know...

You're not at all

my sister's type.

Maybe it's helpful to know that.

Say "Ah".

Three... two...

One... a half...

A quarter...

Hey! Jun!

What's wrong with you?

Don't be so difficult!

Stop crying! Look at you...

In a bad mood, Jun?

He seems to be.

He's nervous about

giving his speech.

- Don't worry, he'll do well.

- I'll be there later.

You've curled it too much!

I wanted a chic look!

How should I do mine?

Nicely done out, this place.

With interiors,

you get what you pay for.

How much did it cost?

The word "interiors" makes

me feel ill.

You know the woman who runs

the June Piano School?

The one from Seoul?

She stuck her head in my shop

and told me to redo my interior!

Said I'd go broke if I didn't!

The first time you met?

Yes, the first time!

She looks fine,

but I don't think she's normal.

Something odd about her.

Over here, Madam.

Moving to her late

husband's hometown!

That's odd in itself!

Hello!

Title:
Gratitude to Parents.

No need to say the title!

Thank you, Mother!

To help me grow up, you take

good care of me.

You are so kind to me.

I am truly grateful.

I will always study hard.

And grow up well.

To become an outstanding person

in our country!

This boy...

...speaks loudly and firmly!

Mothers try to boost the

confidence of their kids...
