THE GOOD BAD MOTHER
What the hell is this?
Damn it.
- Hurry up and find it.
- Yes, sir.
Be quiet.
Lion.
Hide in there!
Lion.
I'm here!
Oh, no!
Lion…
Lion!
What have you…
How did you open that?
That's my mom's favorite…
Stop pooping,
or we'll both get kicked out!
Come here.
Come here, Choi Lion.
Come here.
All right.
My mom is going to get mad.
Wait.
Sit, Lion.
What's all this?
What did you eat so much, you idiot?
All right.
Should we go out now?
- What if his mother comes too?
- Stay still.
What did you have for dinner?
Skate.
Wait there. Gosh.
Don't come out.
I can't believe this.
Lion isn't that tall.
That was close.
I should put this…
in the closet.
I'm sure it was…
That can't be.
Come out.
I know you're in there.
I knew it.
It was Lion.
You're dead meat.
My mom is going to kill you.
This…
All right.
Done.
THE GOOD BAD MOTHER
EPISODE 6
I'm relieved that Mom
is at Mr. Son's place.
Gosh, Lion. What are you going to do now?
You're going to get kicked out.
Mom.
Mom?
No!
No.
Who are you?
- Are you okay, sir?
- No, I'm not!
Get him!
Get him!
- Go get the car!
- Yes, sir.
Step on it!
Pass that car!
No, don't follow him. Go straight.
Go straight!
Turn now!
It's me, sir.
There were people hiding inside.
I'm sorry--
Damn it!
SONG WOO-BYEOK
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR CANDIDACY
Mom…
- What's all this mess?
- It's…
Some scary men suddenly barged in
and made a mess.
At this hour? Who came from where?
I don't know either.
They were inside the closet.
And another guy came in from that door.
I saw it.
- So you're saying some scary men
- Yes.
- came out of the closet
- Yes.
and they made a mess
and pooped in here, right?
Yes. It's the truth.
He…
He even had a knife.
This guy had a knife,
and these guys suddenly came out.
He was going to stab me,
but these guys lunged at him.
Then he lunged back at them.
They crashed and everything.
They fought in this small room?
Yes.
Clean up right now.
Or I'll kick you and Lion out.
It's the truth, Mom!
Clean it up!
So what happened?
He disappeared at the hospital.
I wasn't asking about him.
We're still looking for it.
But it's such a small village,
and it's hard to avoid the neighbors.
It's difficult to be inconspicuous.
I'll find it at all costs!
That's right.
That's the right answer.
I told you that
Oh Tae-soo would betray me.
He'll get more desperate
as the election nears.
He'll get rid of everyone
who gets in his way!
Who do you think
will be next after Kang-ho?
Make sure Kang-ho is safe
until we find the original copy.
Understand?
Yes, sir.
Splash, splash
Throw the bottle
Throw the bottle
When the coastal guard isn't watching
Throw the bottle
Okay?
I'll throw this too.
And this net.
And I'll throw you too.
You shouldn't throw trash
into this beautiful sea.
I've calculated your wages, incentives,
and severance pay.
Minus the destruction of property,
the compensation I gave to the customers,
and the money I lost because I had to
close the business last night.
And you just need to pay me
100 million won.
- A hundred million?
- Why?
Do you not have the money?
I'm an idiot! I didn't think that far.
What do we do then?
In that case,
how about I give you a good beating first?
Sorry? No.
Beat him up.
Come here.
You bastard.
- Okay!
- What are you saying?
- What the…
- Come here!
- Come down.
- Come down.
- I'll call the cops!
- Come here.
- Let me go!
- You won't die.
- Don't worry.
- Don't touch me!
Come down.
What the…
Hey!
Sam-sik, it's cold out there!
Is he a seal or something?
All right.
See you again, Sam-sik!
Phone use is a violation
of Article 49, Paragraph 1,
Item 10 of the Road Traffic Act.
Neglect of a seatbelt is a violation
of Article 50, Paragraph 1
of the Road Traffic Act.
It's okay.
You can take your time.
But promise me
you'll come back.
Is anyone home?
Coming.
Who are you?
Gosh.
I told you not to go out like that.
Anyway, who are you?
I'm Baek Hoon-ah.
I'm from Seoul.
I see.
"Baek Hoon-ah"?
The name sounds familiar.
Hoon-ah?
Weren't you the Nightingale of Jou-ri?
Do you know me?
It's me, Son Yong-rak!
We went to the same elementary school.
Let's see. You were in second grade
when you moved to Seoul.
- You were probably nine.
- Right.
You were always good at singing.
No wonder you became a composer.
Shouldn't he have become a singer
if he was good at singing?
Perhaps his looks got in the way.
You can go rest if you're done with that.
I'm not done yet.
I'll eat the peel as well.
Okay.
If you're going to live in this village,
it's best not to listen to what she says.
Come on. I lived in Seoul for a long time.
I've been downright ignoring her.
Anyway, it's nice to see you again.
Are you here for good?
Well, you see…
Yong-rak.
Yong-rak.
The foot-and-mouth disease has spread
throughout North and South Jeolla Province
as well as South Chungcheong Province.
The Ministry of Agriculture,
Food and Rural Affairs has decided
to cull 3,000 pigs at the farm
where the disease was detected
and take preventive measures
at eight farms within a 3km radius--
Why are they tormenting the pigs?
They're not tormenting them.
It's because they're sick.
One sick pig could transmit disease
to the entire farm
and it could spread to other nearby farms.
So they must kill them.
Kill them?
Then will our pigs get killed too?
No.
Our pigs have been vaccinated,
and there are no farms nearby.
So you don't need to worry.
But
you need to keep Lion
on the farm from now on.
Okay?
It can't catch a disease.
Okay.
The market is opening today
so I'll be going into town.
I'll see you later then.
What's gotten into you?
You always begged me to take you with me.
Well…
The place will be crowded with people.
It won't be easy to get around
in my wheelchair, so I'll stay home.
I'll eat and exercise.
I know you just want to play
with Ye-jin and Seo-jin.
Promise me you won't
get into trouble like last time.
Okay. I won't.
I promise.
Promise.
Here.
Pick up herbicide for the garlic field.
Okay. Do you need anything else?
Use this to start your shop.
I saved up to give this to you
on your wedding day.
Make sure you look for a good place.
Mom…
This is the last time
I'll be helping you out. Got that?
- Gosh.
- Mom.
Thank you so much.
I'll work really hard
and pay you back handsomely. Okay?
Get it together, okay?
- Go.
- Okay.
I'll see you later.
Ye-jin. Seo-jin.
Hi, Juni.
Give me the bus schedule
for Jou-ri to Uri-myeon.
Okay. It is scheduled to arrive soon.
Gosh.
Mi-joo!
Oh, no.
Taxi.
Taxi!
Taxi!
Hello.
I wanted to ask you something.
About that old lady who's protesting
in front of the Prosecutors' Office…
Jung Jong-gu's mother.
What are the contents?
It's red chili powder, sesame seeds,
a few potatoes, sesame oil,
and perilla oil.
Please deliver them safely.
BANDO REAL ESTATE
- Hello.
- Come on in.
Please give me this pair in 275mm.
All right, one minute.
You have a keen eye.
Those shoes were newly released.
They're comfortable and don't smell.
There's this air cushion back here,
so they're great
for jogging or working out.
They lessen the stress
on your knees, calves, and cartilage.
I'm wearing them right now.
Do you want to see a pair in 275mm?
No, it's okay.
Then just this one.
Yes, please.
- How much is it?
- It's 15,000 won, but just give me 10,000.
- Thank you. Come again.
- Thank you.
But later…
Someday…
I'm going to come back for those shoes.
Just wait and see.
All right.
Baek Hoon-ah, the Nightingale of Jou-ri?
That's right.
Goodness. It's been ages.
Gum-ja.
So you still live here.
I was wondering who it was
that moved here from Seoul.
I'm so glad to see you.
Are you here for good?
Goodness.
What's wrong?
Goodness.
Goodness.
The rent is pretty high
despite it being a rural area.
This is the only town around here.
The land value has soared
because a semiconductor company
will be moving here.
I see.
Anyway, thank you. I'll call you later.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
BANDO REAL ESTATE
Are these supplements the best ones?
Of course.
- I'd like eight boxes.
- Okay.
And do you have any medicine
for indigestion or stomach cramps?
Do you want three days' worth?
A bit more than that please.
I'd like three months' worth.
Yes, ma'am.
BANDO REAL ESTATE
Please let me know
if you're interested in a shop-in-shop.
Thank you.

I like looking at these fish.
What's great about staring at fish
that are about to die?
Exactly.
They might die any moment now,
but no matter how painful or scary it is,
they're unable to cry or scream.
I think judicial officers
must be like that.
- We have eggs. Fresh eggs.
- Mi-joo.
- Eggs that we collected
- Mi-joo!
- before they even touched the nest.
- Mi-joo!
10,000 won for 30 eggs!

I lost my wallet.
No, I have the bankbook.
I must've dropped my wallet somewhere.
Mom, I'll put him on the phone.
You talk to him.
- Here.
- Okay.
Hello?
I see. It's Ms. Jung from Jou-ri.
Herbicide for your garlic field?
All right. Bye.
- Okay.
- Right.
I'll go get it from the storage.
- Wait here.
- Okay.
All right.
Gosh, that hurts.
You're still in pain.
You should see a doctor.
Does your finger hurt?
Well…
I think it's irritation
from pesticides or grass.
Let me take a look. Hold on.
What?
Let me see.
One minute.
You have an ingrown nail.
Don't cut your nails too close or round.
But cut it so that it's a square shape.
Old people don't know about that.
We're not particular
about cutting our nails.
If it's too hard to do it,
you can go to a nail salon.
Isn't that where
you get your nails colored?
They do that,
but they also help fix problematic nails.
He's back with the herbicide.
Ma'am, how's your finger now?
Goodness, it feels much better.
Nail salon, was it?
Is there a nail salon in town?
There was one,
but it closed down a few months ago.
Goodness.
Living in a rural area is so inconvenient.
By the way, why don't you
open up a nail salon?
You'd be so good at it.
I've been looking into it,
but the rent is too high.
I can't find a decent shop-in-shop either.
What is a "shop-in-shop"?
It's opening up another small shop
inside a shop.
That's why it's called a shop-in-shop.
Then open one here.
Lots of people frequent this place
all year round.
Most of us need hand care
and often wait around
like this for the bus.
- That'd be great.
- Come on.
Who would open up a nail shop
in a place like this?
Jeez.
My wife would be glad
to hear that news though.
She's been sulking about
the nail salon closing down.
Can I really do that?
How much would the rent be?
What rent?
That corner has always been empty.
She's right.
We'll convince everyone to buy seeds,
fertilizer, and everything else here.
- So let her have it.
- Seriously?
I have a truck driver's license too.
I can fetch products from the storage
when you're busy
and deliver them too.
- Seriously?
- Yes.
In that case…
Then…
- Welcome.
- Thank you.
- A big welcome.
- Thank you.
- Gladly.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Good for you.
Let's see.
That's Mi-joo's!
- That little…
- Darn it.
Move!
Out!
Hit a home run or strikeout.
Hit a home run…
Or strikeout.
…or strikeout.
Catch that thief!
You thief!
You punk.
- How dare you steal this?
- No, I didn't steal it.
This is from our shop.
- I didn't steal it.
- How dare you?
- Then why do you have our item?
- Sorry?
I saw it. Why do you have it?
I just tried it on.
- Don't lie.
- It's the truth.
- How dare you?
- Wait--
What's going on?
What's the matter?
It's Mi-joo!
- Do you know him?
- Yes, I do.
No, I…
No.
Anyway, he's unwell.
Please let go of him.
I'm telling you, he stole this.
- What?
- He stole our apple too.
Goodness.
We'll have to throw all of this away.
What'll you do?
I…
The thing is…
Someone stole this, so…
Why do you have that?
"Hi, Juni."
"Give me the bus schedule
for Jou-ri to Uri-myeon."
You dropped it while you said that.
I'm so sorry.
I'll compensate you for everything.
I'm sorry.
What do I do?
- I'm sorry.
- Kang-ho.
Goodness.
How did you come all the way here?
You don't even know the way.
You can't buy anything
if you don't have your wallet.
But still, there are many cars,
so it could've been dangerous.
If you pick up anything from now on,
give it to me or Mr. Son, okay?
Okay.
And no matter what,
you shouldn't touch someone else's stuff.
Why did you take the bag?
The owner must've been startled.
Bar Exam Meals.
What?
What did you say?
- Put him behind bars?
- What?
- No.
- You…
- You need to get scolded!
- No, I…
How dare you say that about an elder?
- Mi-joo.
- Gosh!
How dare you!
- You impudent brat!
- That hurts! Mi-joo!
- Bye, Mi-joo.
- Thank you for the ride.
Mi-joo, wait.
Yes?
These are supplements.
Give them to your mom.
And tell her I'm sorry that
Kang-ho ruined her field.
I'm the one who should be sorry.
Ye-jin just lost her grip on the pig.
You must've been surprised.
I was.
We could've lost the pig.
No.
I mean Kang-ho.
Sorry?
I couldn't talk to you
with him in the truck.
But you looked quite upset.
That's not why.
Mi-joo.
I treated you harshly back then,
blaming you for Kang-ho
not taking his CSAT.
I even refused
to tell you his contact information.
I'm really sorry about that.
I think I'm being punished right now
because of what I did to you back then.
I'm really sorry. Please forgive me.
Ms. Jin, don't be like this.
Don't apologize.
I'm happy
that I got to see him again.
But…
You know very well how strong he is.
Just wait.
He won't give up that easily.
He'll walk again.
Thanks.
Thanks, Mi-joo.
Hoon-ah.
Are you really
Hoon-ah?
Won-hyung, you bedwetter.
You've grown so much.
- Gosh.
- Hoon-ah.
Sing me a song.
- What song?
- The song you used to sing back then
about a magpie.
Should I?
Whom
Does the magpie
Play with?
They play among themselves
In the field
Whom does Won-hyung the Bedwetter
Play with?
Won-hyung the Bedwetter
Plays with Hoon-ah
Let's get rid of the pig farm.
But…
- Come on. That's absurd.
- What's he saying?
I love you with all my heart,
but I'm against that!
- Me too.
- Now, now.
Hear me out.
If you help me out,
I promise
to replace the pig farm
with the biggest trot concert hall
in this country.
- I will.
- A concert hall?
- A trot concert hall?
- A trot concert hall?
Look. Korea's in the grip
of trot music fever.
I'll bring Young-woong,
Young-tak, and Dong-won
and hold a concert every week.
Think about it.
People will swarm into this village.
Then…
Gosh, it'll be so noisy and chaotic.
Goodness. It'll be so hectic.
Right.
If the biggest trot concert hall
is built here,
we'll need security.
Who should be in charge?
- Me?
- No.
Sam-sik.
- Sam-sik?
- Not him.
Hold on. What will Sam-sik do again?
No one
is more well-versed in security than him.
That's true.
When it comes to security,
- he's like an FBI agent.
- That is true.
Was it when he was in fifth grade?
He went to a police station
- and stole a pair of handcuffs.
- Right.
Must we ignore such a hidden gem?
It'll be a waste of talent.
Goodness.
- I wouldn't say he's a hidden gem.
- On top of that,
the singers will need someone
to do their hair and makeup.
And as it happens,
we have a professional in this village.
- Who?
- Who?
Mi-joo?
What will all those people
want to do here? They'll want to eat.
We'll serve various cuisines.
What will they do
during their waiting time?
Coffee, right?
I'm talking about a cafe.
- A cafe?
- A cafe?
Someone will manage the parking space,
clean, and run a bed and breakfast.
- I have the biggest house around here.
- Right.
That's right!
And each room has a bathroom.
- Not every room.
- Do you still
not get the big picture?
Mr. Son Yong-rak,
the town head?
- Gosh.
- He's a village head.
I'm a village head.
People will gather here,
and the village will grow.
There will be more residents.
Then the village
will become a town in no time.
Better yet, should I call you
a governor instead?
I'd like to introduce you to our governor,
Mr. Son Yong-rak!
- A governor?
- He's a governor!
- That's great!
- You just got promoted!
A round of applause!
Hi, Juni. Show me the direction
to my house.
Starting navigation.
- It works. Look, Mom.
- Right.
If you ever lose your way home,
you can use that.
No.
You shouldn't be in a situation where you
lose your way home to begin with.
Got it?
Okay.
Mr. Son.
Mr. Son?
Mr. Son?
Mr. Son.
Mr. Son.
That's strange. Where's everyone?
Hi, Juni. Where's everyone?
I can't think of an answer.
Hey, Andrea.
Really? Okay, I'll be there soon.
Kang-ho, one of our pigs
is about to give birth.
Give this one to Mr. Kim
who runs the goat farm.
This is for the persimmon tree house,
this is for Ms. Choi.
And these two are for Ms. Park.
- Ms. Park.
- Yes.
Also,
I won't be home until tomorrow morning
because I have to be there for the birth.
So make sure you feed Lion.
There's rice in the rice cooker
and side dishes in the fridge for you.
Exercise for an hour
before going to bed.
Can you do that?
Yes.
But come home as soon as possible
because those scary men might come back.
Let's not call those scary men ever again.
Okay? Bye.
I didn't call them.
Hi, Juni. Find the goat farm for me.
I found 70 goat farms.
What?
JOU-RI CAFE
There they were.
I wrote up a petition.
Let's gather in front of
the pig farm tomorrow
and shout, "We're against it!"
We should protest.
The pig farm was kind of an inconvenience.
We can't deny that.
Right.
Especially in the summer,
more bugs gather there
and the smell worsens.
But most of all,
I'm worried about Young-soon.
I mean, she's unwell.
I don't think
she should be running the farm.
Darn it.
What's your take on this?
Let's fight for a clean
And fresh Jou-ri
Fight
Fight
Fight
Let's fight for it!
I know it hurts a lot.
But your piglets
will only stay strong if you do.
So hang in there
just a little longer, okay?
I'll do the same.
All right.
All done.
SAM-SIK'S MILL
This is the last time
I will help you as your senior colleague.
Just go there
and return with what they give you.
It's a cakewalk.
Okay?
Okay. I got it.
All right. Let's celebrate
Mr. Lee Jae-gyu's promotion
- to assistant chief prosecutor
- He's being so loud.
- and clink our glasses.
- What?
- All right.
- Choi Kang-ho?
Cheers to
Assistant Chief Prosecutor Lee!
- Cheers!
- Cheers!
- Congratulations!
- Congratulations!
Hey. It's you, isn't it?
Hello.
Jeez, you really became a prosecutor.
It's me, Sam-sik. Your childhood friend.
We're childhood friends.
Gosh, you look really good.
Goodness, you're even wearing cologne.
Remember how kids used to make fun of you
because you reeked like your pig farm?
Jeez, they'd bawl
if they had to sit next to you.
Those jerks.
Let's talk outside.
- Please excuse us.
- What?
- Let's talk outside.
- You punk.
You hated pigs,
but you're having pork rinds?
Hey.
My friend is a prosecutor now.
By the way, did you get plastic surgery?
You look even better than you used to.
I'm considering it too.
So how have you been?
What's this for?
Wait. What is this?
Isn't this why you approached me?
You little…
Thanks, my friend.
How much did you give me?
300,000 won?
Hey, thanks!
Thanks!
Kang-ho.
All I did was do as I was told
and sell what I got as my payment.
I had no idea they were stolen
from an assemblyman's house.
So could you talk to
the prosecutor in charge?
You have that power, don't you?
Kang-ho.
It's me, Sam-sik. Your friend.
- Sam-sik.
- Yes?
We're no longer friends.
All right.
I was wrong.
I sincerely apologize
for all the things
I did and said to you back then.
So please help me out this once.
If you do, I promise to start fresh.
Please?
It's over for me if I go to jail again.
Please help me this once
for my poor mother's sake.
No, wait. Please help me, sir.
Please help me.
Sam-sik.
I can't help you.
Kang-ho.
Please help me.
Please…
Can you please be quiet and leave?
Look who it is.
It's Prosecutor Choi Kang-ho.
Oh, dear. You must've hurt your legs.
Who are you?
Who am I?
Unbelievable.
Fine, I get it.
You don't want to associate with me.
But too bad
because I know you very well.
No matter how hard I tried to forget you,
I just couldn't.
So tell me.
How did it feel to keep me
behind bars for months,
my friend?
"Friend"?
Are we friends?
Sorry. Jeez, my bad.
How dare a petty thief
try to befriend a great prosecutor?
Be quiet.
What? "Be quiet"?
I see.
Shut up, you jerk.
"I didn't know they were stolen goods.
All I did was do as I was told."
"So please help me this once."
I begged on my knees, but you said,
"We're no longer friends."
"Can you please be quiet and leave?"
You haven't changed.
You haven't changed one bit.
How dare you have the audacity
to face me, you son of a bitch?
"Son of a bitch"?
Yes, you son of a bitch.
- "Son of a bitch"?!
- Yes, you son of a bitch!
You!
You just cursed.
I'm going to tell my mom.
Right. She's tending to the pigs.
Right. You!
I'm going to tell Ye-jin's dad.
You have no idea how scary he is.
He's a horrifying bastard!
Ye-jin! Seo-jin!
Ye-jin!
Seo-jin!
Hi, Kang-ho.
I mean, Kang-ho oppa.
I mean, Uncle Kang-ho.
I need your dad's help.
You don't need him as much as we do.
But what for?
A stranger called me a son of a bitch.
What? How dare they
say that to our friend?
What are you doing?
I told you to wash your hands and--
Someone cursed at Kang-ho.
I won't let this slide.
All right, let's go!
You're not going anywhere. Come here.
It's almost dinnertime, so go home.
Your mom will be worried.
She's not home.
One of our pigs is giving birth,
so she won't be coming home tonight.
What? Then what about dinner?
I can have rice
with the side dishes in the fridge.
Why don't you just eat with us?
We already have the table set.
Ye-jin.
No, Mom.
- Seo-jin, what are you doing?
- No.
- But…
- What are you doing?
Let's go.
Goodness, he left them there.
SAM-SIK'S MILL
By the way,
I don't know if we should do this to her
as fellow parents.
As fellow parents,
let's do this for our Sam-sik.
He'll become head of security
at the biggest concert hall in Korea.
You're right.
Our son is struggling to land a job
as an ex-convict.
He should be our top priority.
- Exactly.
- Right.
Why is our gate open?
Beats me.
Could it be a thief?
A thief robbing a fellow thief's house?
In that case…
You darn thief!
You thief!
Mom!
It's me, Sam-sik!
- Sam-sik?
- What?
Goodness!
It really is you!
It really was a thief.
Goodness, Sam-sik.
- Goodness. Oh, no.
- Blood.
What?
It's true.
How is that possible?
I know it's unbelievable, but it's true.
Jeez.
I had no idea
and gave him an earful today.
Who knew such a smart kid
would end up like that?
I feel bad for Ms. Jin.
He's her one and only son.
She dedicated her entire life
to supporting him
by running that pig farm.
How dare you say that
after getting out of prison?
Do you think I didn't work hard
to support you?
You bastard.
Where's my discharge deposit?
How dare you
- scam your own mother?
- That hurts!
Dad, help me!
I was just about to help out.
Stop it! It hurts!
Where did you spend that money?
- Come here! Where's the money?
- It hurts!
- Get up!
- Gosh.
- Goodness. Let me see.
- What happened?
- It's nothing.
- Goodness!
Rice is a staple for Koreans,
but we're having bread for dinner?
The color reminds me of diarrhea.
It's called tomato stew.
She learned the recipe to cook it for us.
Just eat it.
Where did she learn
this ridiculous recipe?
Anyway, doesn't it
feel like we're a family
since we're eating together?
Dad.
Mom.
Seo-jin, stop that nonsense and eat.
I'm done.
You didn't eat the carrots.
I don't like carrots.
Eat them if you want to be healthy.
I want Kang-ho to be healthy.
Here.
Do you want me to scold you?
Why are you taking them back?
You don't eat carrots.
How did you know that?
Were we friends too?
We went to school together.
So that's why I kept thinking of you.
You're done eating, right?
Then you should go.
No, I'm not done yet.
I'm sorry.
For what?
I couldn't catch any fish.
Fish?
You like fish.
So I wanted to catch one for you.
But someone suddenly cursed at me.
Where's Ye-jin and Seo-jin's dad?
I want to meet him.
I heard he's a horrifying bastard.
I don't like fish,
so you don't need to catch any for me.
And don't come back here again.
Don't meet my kids again.
I don't want to see you anymore.
Are you done eating?
Was I…
a bad person to you too?
I hope I wasn't.
But I guess I was.
Goodness, I'm so late.
- Grandma!
- Grandma!
Hello.
Hi. What are you doing here?
He ate with us because Ms. Jin was tending
to her pig that was giving birth.
Right. Who's feeding Lion?
Right. Lion.
I need to go feed him.
Thanks, Ye-jin and Seo-jin.
- Goodbye.
- Bye.
And…
Mi-joo…
I feel bad for Young-soon.
She lost her husband,
and her son ended up like that.
And now, she'll be betrayed
by the villagers she trusted.
Don't put it that way.
She's not young anymore,
so we want her to have a comfortable life.
It may sound easy,
but running a farm singlehandedly
as a woman isn't easy at all.
So you all gathered together
and schemed to make her
close down the farm
so that she'd live a comfortable life?
My goodness.
You guys are really something.
Goodness.
- Check in there.
- Yes, sir.
All right.
Goodness. She gave birth to 13 piglets.
You displayed exceptional work
all night long.
Not at all.
She was the one who worked hard.
Well done.
- Good work, Andrea.
- Thank you.
I'll wrap up here.
You can go first.
That is not right.
It is only right for you to go home first.
I have to write up the daily record.
I need to do it, so go home first.
If that is what you want,
then I have no choice but to comply.
Go on.
Sir, the worker is headed your way.
Got it.
I want to go home
All right.
See you tomorrow
Sir.
It's me.
- Who's left?
- His mother probably went home
and the worker went home as well
so it's probably empty.
Good.
Let's go down there.
Yes, sir.
Let's fight for a clean
And fresh Jou-ri
Fight
Fight
"Fight"?
Gosh, he's so annoying.
I wish I could hit him in the head.
Let's fight for it!
- It's a manure facility.
- What about the other storage?
There's a smaller storage up there.
- Let's go.
- Yes, sir.
Gosh.
Goodness.
Who are you? What are you doing here?
- Well, we…
- We need some manure.
Manure?
So we're--
We're planning to start our own farm
and heard that pig manure
was better than fertilizers.
But you can't just
cover your field with it.
You need to add sawdust and probiotics
to turn it into an organic fertilizer.
I've used up what I already made.
I'll give you some when I make more.
I understand. Thank you.
It's really nice to hear
that young men like you want to farm.
This village is full of old people.
Where's your field?
It's over there.
That's ours.
We bought one behind the field
that's two fields down from that one.
You bought the field?
Ms. Park was worried
that the price was too high
since no one wanted it.
I guess she eventually sold it.
Yes.
Anyway, I'll let you know
once I get more manure.
Where do you live?
- We--
- We're about to build one.
I see.
I hope we see each other often.
And I'm sorry,
but this is a restricted area.
Especially with the disease going around.
We're truly sorry. Goodbye then.
Have you gone crazy?
Now we might have to
buy a field, farm, and build a house.
I was flustered
by her unexpected questions.
Darn it.
Mom.
Mom.
Mom?
Was I a bad person to you too?
I hope I wasn't.
But I guess I was.
You're probably worried
about how you'll raise him, right?
Don't worry and just follow my lead.
I've done this before,
so I know a thing or two.
You don't have to hold it in.
I've done this before,
so I know a thing or two.
Goodness.
Young-soon, we're leaving.
One minute!
Mom, here.
Goodness.
What is this?
It's Dad's first company picnic,
so I made some gimbap.
It'd be nice if you could come too.
I know. I would go if it wasn't
for the practical test next week.
Don't worry.
You'll pass no matter what.
I'll do my best.
- Have a safe trip.
- Okay.
- Let's go then.
- Bye.
All right.
I am happy
- I am…
- Bye, Young-soon.
Are you awake?
Why am I here?
You fainted at your farm,
and two men carried you here.
You need to go see the doctor now.
Can you walk?
Yes.
She's not in the kitchen or the bathroom.
And I can't go to the farm.
Then I can call her, right?
You just told me to, okay?
MOM
MY LOVELY SON
Mic test. One, two, three.
It's fine.
But why are these hillbillies
running late?
PIG FARM, OUT.
RETURN MY SENSE OF SMELL!
Hey.
Where in the world are you?
As a fellow parent,
I don't think this is right.
- Goodness.
- Be gentle.
You darn brat.
Our hearts break even when our son
gets injured in the tiniest bit.
So imagine how Young-soon must feel.
Anyway, we won't be a part of it.
I need to spray herbicide
on my garlic field. Okay?
I need to thin out the cabbages.
I have so much to do.
I have no time to protest. Darn it.
Hang up.
Listen, you punk. I know you came here
after ending up dirt poor
because of gambling and plagiarizing.
And you're telling me
you're going to build
the biggest concert hall in the country?
How am I to believe that?
I'm busy right now. Bye.
Mr. Son!
Mr. Son!
Do you really not have a guardian?
Husband, children,
or siblings?
No, I don't.
Don't make me repeat myself.
So just tell me.
What's wrong? Is it serious?
The biopsy results came out.
It's stage 4 stomach cancer.
We'll have to do more tests to confirm.
But judging by this scan,
it's metastasized to your peritoneum.
What are you talking about?
I only came here due to indigestion.
The pain is usually unbearable
at this stage.
Look.
I'm really not in any pain.
I just have indigestion
every now and then.
But I feel better every time I tend to it.
Anyway, I don't have cancer.
Don't be absurd.
Ma'am.
Are you sure the result is correct?
Is the patient's name Jin Young-soon?
No.
That's not important.
To tell the truth,
my son is quite unwell right now.
So I…
I…
I…
I can't…
Doctor.
Please save me.
This is…
This is curable
if I receive surgery, right?
I recently saw on the news that
they've developed medicine
to cure last-stage cancer.
Doctor, I'll…
I'll do as you say
and receive treatment.
I promise.
Doctor.
I can't…
I can't die.
My son…
Kang-ho…
Mom!
Are you okay?
Kang-ho.
Get up.
I…
Mom.
Get up.
Kang-ho.
THE GOOD BAD MOTHER
My mom is acting weird.
She's low on energy
and doesn't smile anymore.
You can slowly regain your memory
and learn one thing at a time.
Who are we to criticize one another?
We both messed up.
Why should I die?
Why should I die?
I feel so bad for Young-soon.
What will happen to that family?
Then after 25 nights,
you wean them.
I'll only end up
becoming a burden to my unwell son.
Mom!
