The second son, Daepoong, moves into Bokshil's house at the invitation of her father, the hospital director.
The first son, Jipoong, is now happily married. The one difficult spot is with Soo Jin's niece, Mari, who is struggling to understand that her aunt will no longer live with her.
The third son, Sunpoong, has made up with his wife in the epic war of the sexes in his in-law's houseehold and is now trying to make his father-in-law reconcile with his mother-in-law.
The fourth son, Mipoong, is about to go eat dokkbukki with Soohee, Hana's mother, when his friend and Hana's father, Yong Chul shows up. Watching Jipoong and Soohee interact, Yong Chul realizes that the two are developing a romantic relationship. Yong Chul picks a fight with Soohee.
A sideline that's also developing is increased pressure on Miran, the mother's niece, to marry. The obvious foreshadowing is a relationship between Miran and Soo Jin's brother, Bruce (whom the Song family keep calling Brutus).
I have been waiting with eager anticipation for the Daepoong and Bokshil relationship to be resolved:
However, I felt that the Sungpoong scene stole the show. Sunpoong, when he cannot convince his father-in-law to sleep in the same bed with his mother-in-law, checks up on his mother-in-law who is reading a poetry book. It turns out that the two have a favorite poet in common. So while the father-in-law and Sunpoong's wife, Eunji, fall asleep, Sunpoong reads poetry out loud with his mother-in-law. It's an unexpected and delightfully comic scene.
At the end of episode 49, I was intrigued when Daepoong makes Rabokki. I've never had it before, and it's something that I would love to make. I looked over a couple of recipes and found one that looks like the one Daepoong makes with boiled eggs. This is another recipe, without boiled eggs, but that clarifies most of the ingredients as it is written out along with visuals.
